1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,360 Speaker 1: A lot of conversation over the last couple of days 2 00:00:02,440 --> 00:00:07,840 Speaker 1: about the president's executive order on mail in ballots, and 3 00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:10,760 Speaker 1: there's a whole lot to discuss with regard to election 4 00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:14,200 Speaker 1: integrity and what's happening between now an election day. But 5 00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:17,160 Speaker 1: first we have to look at Virginia, where the Democrats 6 00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:19,759 Speaker 1: in Virginia have a special election coming up in less 7 00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:22,760 Speaker 1: than two weeks where they will completely gerrymander the state, 8 00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:27,280 Speaker 1: eliminating half of the districts that are currently represented by 9 00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:30,159 Speaker 1: Republicans and converting them all to Democrats. It is the 10 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:34,440 Speaker 1: biggest power grab we've ever seen in recent years. And 11 00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:40,640 Speaker 1: here's the discussion on CNN and we're going to get 12 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:42,960 Speaker 1: to that story in just one minute. But first, you know, 13 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:45,680 Speaker 1: we talk about government fraud and waste a lot here 14 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:48,800 Speaker 1: on the program, and for Medicare enrollees, well, they become 15 00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:52,400 Speaker 1: a prime target of fraudulent activity. You probably saw in 16 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 1: the news recently that Trump's DOJ went after some of 17 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:58,840 Speaker 1: the largest Medicare brokers in the country for claiming they 18 00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:01,200 Speaker 1: were unbiased all the way while they were secretly steering 19 00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 1: people into the plans that paid them the most. And 20 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 1: the part that people need to understand is in a 21 00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:09,320 Speaker 1: lot of cases that behavior is legal, but it doesn't 22 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 1: mean it's in your best interest. A lot of agents 23 00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:15,560 Speaker 1: aren't really working for you. They're working for the insurance company. 24 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 1: And that's why I point people, including my own mother, 25 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 1: to Chapter Chapter does medicare differently. Their advisors are salaried, 26 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:26,600 Speaker 1: so they're not pushing plans based on commissions. In fact, 27 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,559 Speaker 1: they're the only Medicare advisor that actually compares every plan 28 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 1: available nationwide, not just the select few. There's no cost 29 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 1: to talk to them, and in most cases they can 30 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 1: review your options in about twenty minutes. So if you're 31 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 1: turning sixty five or already on Medicare, called Chapter the 32 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 1: numbers five eight zero three zero eight zero nine seven five. Honestly, 33 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 1: other than watching this show, I can think of a 34 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 1: better use of twenty minutes. Now back to the video. 35 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 2: This whole thing seems like a bait and switch. 36 00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 3: I mean, Abigail Spaanberger said she would not redistrict. In 37 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 3: twenty twenty, Virginia amended its constitution to give the districting 38 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 3: to a bipartisan commission. And now all of a sudden, 39 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,919 Speaker 3: I see if it's completely purple, they're trying, and I 40 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 3: feel like they're trying to pull the wool of O Rotorsyes, 41 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 3: the language that's being proposed to them is about restoring fairness, 42 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 3: and in fact, the Republicans are suing over that use 43 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 3: of language. 44 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,679 Speaker 2: It feels very misleading. Why do you think why do 45 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:25,919 Speaker 2: you think the Democrats are doing this? 46 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:27,520 Speaker 1: Is it just leaders to decide to. 47 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 2: Do it today or well? 48 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:30,799 Speaker 3: In California, if you're concerned about balance, I don't want 49 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 3: to go onto tip for tat you're concerned about balancing 50 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:37,919 Speaker 3: the state of California is basically balanced out whatever Texas did. 51 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 2: And so now this feels like offenses. 52 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 3: Virginia is basically trying to get rid of all of 53 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 3: the Republicans. 54 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 2: But a lot of this also, I mean, because. 55 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 1: That is so disingenuous of Van Jones and it's truly 56 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 1: passive aggressive. Did you see how he did that? I 57 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 1: wonder why? What just say what you want to say, Van? 58 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 1: Instead of asking questions here, I'm just asking questions. But 59 00:02:58,360 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: why do you think that is? Why do you think 60 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: that is? Van? Why don't you tell us what you're 61 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 1: getting at me? I'll answer his rhetorical nonsense there if 62 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 1: you don't mind. 63 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 2: Here we go question and now all of it. 64 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, she just talked about how they had passed a 65 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:15,080 Speaker 1: constitutional amendment several years ago for a non partisan commission 66 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: to do all of the maps. I wonder, I wonder why. 67 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: I'll tell you why, because shockingly, anytime Democrats got into 68 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 1: power in Virginia, they would draw the lines that favored 69 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 1: Democrats and people would scream about it. And then Republicans 70 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 1: got into power and they'd try to draw the lines 71 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 1: and everyone would scream about it. And so finally people 72 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 1: in Virginia said, hey, I got an idea. How about 73 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 1: we get it out of the hands of the politicians 74 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 1: and we have a non partisan commission do it. Now. 75 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 1: Van Jones is trying to pretend that that was just 76 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 1: because Republicans had been jerry manning, But that's not true. 77 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 1: Jerry manager has been literally going on since like the 78 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: third presidential term in this country. We'll get to that 79 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 1: in just a second. You might be shocked at the 80 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 1: history of jerrymandering, but Van Jones knows that. But the 81 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 1: point here is there was a constitutional amendment in Virginia 82 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 1: that said we're going to have a non partisan commission 83 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: abigils Samberger said, I support that we shouldn't jerrymander Virginia. 84 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 1: She gets power, and then immediately says, screw that constitutional amendment. 85 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 1: We're going to add a new constitutional amendment that doesn't 86 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 1: have a nonpartisan process. We're Democrats, we have control, we 87 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 1: have power. We're going to drill it down. That's why, man, 88 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 1: there's the answer to your question. 89 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:25,360 Speaker 2: Foole. 90 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 3: They're trying and I feel like they're trying to pull 91 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 3: the wool of O Rotor's eyes. The language that's being 92 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 3: proposed to them is about restoring fairness, and in fact 93 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,359 Speaker 3: Republicans are suing over that use of language. 94 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 2: It feels very misleading you. Why do you think the 95 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,119 Speaker 2: Democrats are doing this? Is it just leaders to decide 96 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 2: to do it today. 97 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:43,919 Speaker 1: Or why do you think it is? Van So now 98 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: he's trying to get to well, this all started with Texas, 99 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: and a little later on he says, yet, tell. 100 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 2: What I regarded it, and wow, this feels like. 101 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 1: Texas started. Well that's disingenuous and wrong. First of all, 102 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 1: if you want to talk about these modern this modern 103 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 1: wave of jerrymandering and states doing mid mid decade redistricting, 104 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: New York started it. New York did it actually than 105 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 1: handful of years ago. Now, a court struck down the 106 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 1: districts that they tried to do. But then what happened 107 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 1: in Texas, well, a lot of people don't like to 108 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 1: talk about this, but in Texas there was a challenge 109 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 1: to one of the districts and a district court a 110 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 1: judge who, last I'm told, is actually more powerful than 111 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: the president. A judge said, yeah, these districts need to 112 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 1: be redrawn. So Texas went in and red with them. 113 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 1: Did they draw them in favor of Republicans? Well, yeah 114 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 1: they did. California responded and basically that evened out. Now, 115 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 1: Virginia's trying to go even further, Maryland tried to go 116 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: even further. Every state that can trying to go even further. 117 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 1: But the whole idea that Texas started it, and guess 118 00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,080 Speaker 1: what I just said, in the recent years, new York 119 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,480 Speaker 1: started it. But that's ridiculous. Texas didn't start a New 120 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 1: York didn't started you know, you want to know who 121 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: started it? Massachusetts started it. Massachusetts started it first, big 122 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,359 Speaker 1: time jerry mandering. It was challenged by the courts and 123 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 1: the court said, yeah, this is a political process. We're 124 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 1: not going to get involved in it. It was eighteen twelve. 125 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 1: Eighteen twelve is when Boston, Massachusetts carved out a district 126 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 1: that looked ridiculous, but it was carved out just so 127 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 1: they could get votes. Who did the carving a guy 128 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 1: named Elbridge Jerry. That's why they call it jerry mandering. 129 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: He was vice President of the United States under James Madison. 130 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,040 Speaker 1: And I know you'll be shocked to learn what political 131 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 1: party he belonged to. That would be the Democrats. Back 132 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 1: then they called themselves Democratic Republicans. So if you really 133 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: want to play that game, Van about who started it 134 00:06:56,160 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: with jerry mandering, we win. It was you guys who 135 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 1: started it all the way back in eighteen twelve. That's fine, 136 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:09,279 Speaker 1: that's just redistricting. That's small potatoes when it comes to voting. 137 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: Here's Eric Swalwell who wants to be governor of California, 138 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 1: and he's making a promise to the people of the 139 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 1: Golden State. See right now, in California, they have ballot 140 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 1: harvesting where people can go up to an old folks 141 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 1: home or an apartment building or penitentiary or wherever and 142 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 1: just take everybody's ballots. You know, everybody in the state 143 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 1: of California gets a ballot mailed to them, whether they 144 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 1: ask for it or not. Right, and then political activists 145 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 1: working for nonprofit five oh one C four super packs 146 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: and George Soros funded political groups. They can now go 147 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 1: and gather your ballots for you. Hey, hey, grandma, I'll 148 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 1: go ahead and take your ballot for you. Okay, I'll 149 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 1: go ahead. I'll deliver it for you.

Oh yeah, definitely, 152 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna deliver this for you. Don't you worry. Okay, okay, 153 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 1: bye bye, grandma, Go a ke. Ballot harvesting. It's beautiful. 154 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 1: Ballot harvesting. Go to an apartment building. Get have an 155 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 1: apartment building. Oftentimes at the door they get there's like 156 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 1: a counter where all the mail boxes are. And sometimes 157 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 1: those ballots are so big they don't fit into all 158 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 1: the little boxes for the mail right or if they're 159 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 1: delivered in bulk, they just sort of stack them up 160 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:34,319 Speaker 1: there on the counter. So ballot harvesting, you just go in, 161 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 1: you just get those stacks of ballots. You take them all, 162 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 1: you fill them out. However you want to fill them out, 163 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,199 Speaker 1: you deposit them for you. What's the worst that's gonna happen. 164 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 1: Someone's gonna show up and vote in person and it 165 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 1: turns out they've already got a mail in ballot recorded 166 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 1: for him. Well, first of all, you've got to assume 167 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 1: the state of California even tracks that kind of thing. 168 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 1: And if they do, they say, oh, well, we already 169 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 1: show you voted. Oh did I? Oh dude, well pot 170 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,560 Speaker 1: is legal in estate, so I could have been stoned. 171 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 1: I don't know. Or if you're actually on top of it, 172 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 1: you can say, well, that's not true, I didn't vote, 173 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,959 Speaker 1: and they'll say, well, here here's your provisional ballot. I'm 174 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 1: sure it'll all work out in the end. That's what 175 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,680 Speaker 1: happens in California right now. Everybody gets a mail in ballot. 176 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 1: Mail in ballots take forever to count. There's drop boxes everywhere. 177 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,319 Speaker 1: They never purge their voter rolls. Anybody who has a 178 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 1: driver's license can register to vote, whether it's citizen or not. 179 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 1: It's mayhem, it's chaos, and it also takes them about 180 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: three weeks to count all the ballots. But I just 181 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 1: want you to know that Eric Swalwell, now who wants 182 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: to be governor, he's promising the people of California that 183 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:41,559 Speaker 1: right now California ain't good enough. He wants to take 184 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 1: it one step further in making it easy for people 185 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 1: to cheat. I'm sorry, vote. 186 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 4: I want us to be able to vote by phone. 187 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 4: I think every California by vote by phone. 188 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 1: Yeah. 189 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 4: If we can do our taxes, do you know, our 190 00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 4: make our healthcare appointments, you know, make essentially you do 191 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 4: your banking online. You should be able to vote by phone. 192 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 4: Make it safe, make it secure. But it's actually already 193 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 4: happening all over the United States. I want us to 194 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 4: be a blue state that doesn't do just a little 195 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 4: bit better than like Georgia or Alabama when it comes 196 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 4: to like voting access. I want us to max out democracy. 197 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 4: Also as it relates to democracy, if you wait in 198 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 4: line for thirty minutes or more, if you do want 199 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,560 Speaker 4: to vote in person, I think you should find every 200 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 4: county for every minute that a person has to wait longer. 201 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 4: We have to be better, not just a little bit 202 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 4: better than the other states. The DMV. I don't think 203 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 4: Californians should have to go in person to the DMV anymore. 204 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:39,200 Speaker 4: I think we can do that virtually. I think you 205 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 4: you can have the DMV. 206 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 5: Employees do it virtually. But that's a lot of real estate. 207 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:47,959 Speaker 5: Is that the most popular position? Digitize the day. Yeah, 208 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:49,960 Speaker 5: we can modernize the state. And I look forward to, 209 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 5: you know, bringing these ideas to Californians. 210 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 1: Just I want us to be just you know, just 211 00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:58,320 Speaker 1: on the last point, there's already a ton of things 212 00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 1: that you can do online at the DMV. Yeah, he 213 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 1: doesn't know when was the last time he ever got 214 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 1: his registration taking care of for his license renewed. For 215 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 1: good say, he doesn't even live in California, he lives 216 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 1: in DC. But I'm glad he brings up the DMV. 217 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:14,079 Speaker 1: I'm glad he brings that up because as pleasant and 218 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 1: experience it is, as it is for you to go 219 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 1: to the DMV and get your license renewed or your 220 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 1: registration taking care of or whatever else you've got to 221 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 1: deal with with the DMV, the same state government that 222 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,760 Speaker 1: set that system up will be the state government that 223 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 1: sets up your vote by phone process. That's also the 224 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:36,559 Speaker 1: same state government who handles the Medicare and home hospice 225 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 1: medicaid systems that are being investigated for tens of millions 226 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 1: of dollars of fraud right now. Right Oh, it's the 227 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 1: same state government that ensures that people in this only 228 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 1: illegal immigrants are able to get benefits and registered to 229 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,719 Speaker 1: vote in the state of California. That's the government that's 230 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 1: going to handle everything like vote by phone. So I'm 231 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 1: sure everything will be fine. Eric Swawa wants to make 232 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 1: sure that vote by phone is set up because what 233 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 1: was the word he used, hold on. 234 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 4: You know, make essentially your do your banking online. You 235 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,440 Speaker 4: should be able to vote by phone. Make it safe, 236 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,200 Speaker 4: make it secure. But it's actually already happening all over 237 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 4: the United States. I want us to be a blue 238 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 4: state that doesn't do just a little bit better than 239 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 4: like Georgia or Alabama when it comes to like voting access. 240 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 4: I want us to max out democracy. 241 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:36,679 Speaker 1: Max out democracy. So I want everybody to vote by 242 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:40,319 Speaker 1: phone so we can max out democracy. And I'm definitely 243 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,320 Speaker 1: there's going to be safeguards because you know what, only 244 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:49,320 Speaker 1: American citizens have phones or something, and you know, nobody 245 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 1: ever can hack into your bank account or your healthcare 246 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 1: records from a foreign country. And Dick around with it, 247 00:12:57,640 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 1: so you know, you know, I'm sure, I'm sure that 248 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:05,479 Speaker 1: it'll be secure from any tampering. This guy's absolute, dangerous, 249 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:11,319 Speaker 1: fraudulent moron. But people buy this crap. And the same 250 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,200 Speaker 1: guy who wants to now max out democracy so that 251 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,280 Speaker 1: you can vote by phone and then immediately says, but 252 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:18,240 Speaker 1: we want to make it safe and secure. What the 253 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: hell are you doing to make our regular voting system 254 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 1: safe and secure. It's not safe and secure now, And 255 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 1: then he wants you to do it with an app, 256 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,680 Speaker 1: you see, but any effort that is utilized to get 257 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 1: in front of you know that. It was like twenty 258 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 1: years ago when then Jimmy Carter and then a former 259 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:41,959 Speaker 1: president Jimmy Carter, former Secretary of State James Baker, they 260 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 1: put together a commission to analyze how we do our 261 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 1: elections here in America. It was at the advent of 262 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 1: electronic voting machines and a lot of the sort of 263 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 1: phasing out the old giant voting booths we used to have, 264 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,080 Speaker 1: and there was some punch card things, and there were 265 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 1: concerns over that and all these things, and so they 266 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 1: set up a commission to make our elections as easy 267 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:04,720 Speaker 1: and safe and secure as possible. And do you know 268 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 1: the one thing. And it's very hard to get Democrats 269 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 1: and Republicans to agree on things, and it's very hard 270 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:12,720 Speaker 1: to get these blue ribbon panels and commissions to agree 271 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 1: on things. But you know what, the one thing they 272 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,559 Speaker 1: agreed on, go ahead and search it. Go ahead and 273 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 1: do a search whatever engine you like. Fact check me. 274 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 1: I beg you to fact check me every day. The 275 00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 1: one thing they agreed on this commission, the Carter Baker 276 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 1: Commission on American Elections, the one thing they agreed on 277 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 1: is that the easiest way to cheat in an election, 278 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 1: the widest opening for potential fraud in an election, is 279 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 1: if you have ubiquitous voting by mail. That was Jimmy 280 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 1: Carter who said that, and Baker, you know, a bushy 281 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 1: So of course, Democrats, you realize that report was supposed 282 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 1: to be a warning for American politicians. You know, whatever 283 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 1: you do, don't do vote by mail. Democrats back then 284 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:07,400 Speaker 1: saw that report and said, oh, the easiest way to 285 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:10,000 Speaker 1: cheat is vote by mail. Hey, guys, we need more 286 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 1: vote by mail. That's the secret, sauce. Let's go. Thanks 287 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:21,120 Speaker 1: for the Thanks for the tip, Jimmy that they took 288 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 1: it as an instruction manual, not as a warning. So 289 00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 1: of course now we have vote by mail everywhere. President Trump, 290 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 1: with an executive order last week, tried to limit the 291 00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 1: amount of weight. But I don't think the executive order 292 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 1: will hold up, and I think it'll be challenged. I 293 00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:39,160 Speaker 1: don't think he can do it necessarily. But it doesn't matter. 294 00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 1: Here's how people in the media like to portray it. 295 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 2: President Trump signing an executive order to limit mail in voting. 296 00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 2: His latest move could subvert the midterm so doat about 297 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 2: the results as his party faces political. 298 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 1: Headwinds, subvert the mid term elections, and so doubt. Oh, 299 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 1: only in George Stephanopolis's world, if you would you go 300 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 1: through a process to ensure that only US citizens are 301 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:10,280 Speaker 1: registered to vote, that only people who claim they are 302 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 1: who they say they are with photo identification can vote, 303 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:18,800 Speaker 1: and that the one biggest area of fraudulent voting activity, 304 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 1: mail in ballots, is limited to just people who you 305 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 1: know are overseas or sick and infirmed, instead of just 306 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:30,040 Speaker 1: mail in ballots for everybody. Only George Stephanopolis would look 307 00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 1: all of that and say, well, he's just trying to 308 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 1: sow doubt about the results. Of the election. They're not 309 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 1: in the news business. They're in the propaganda business big time. 310 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 1: In fact, I don't know if you saw this Billy Bush, 311 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 1: who's looking more and more like a bush these days. 312 00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 1: Billy Bush, who worked in the entertainment television world. He 313 00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:52,480 Speaker 1: shared a story here that I don't think anyone's ever 314 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:56,040 Speaker 1: heard before. I know I hadn't Billy Bush on Hannity's 315 00:16:56,040 --> 00:17:00,240 Speaker 1: podcast along with the Sage, Steele tells a story about 316 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 1: ABC News and how these propaganda's. ABC News run by 317 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 1: George Stephanopolis. He's the what executive political editor or whatever 318 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 1: the hell his title is. He was sued and settled 319 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 1: for defamation against Donald Trump. Lest you forget, how ABC 320 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:19,880 Speaker 1: News had an entire unit with one focus get Trump. 321 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 2: Their determination to find something. Imagine going around asking that question, 322 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,920 Speaker 2: who has something? Who has like there's. 323 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 6: Evil in that ABC even if somebody that wasn't, Like 324 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:34,480 Speaker 6: they had a division dedicated with seventy five people in it. 325 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:36,920 Speaker 6: Because I know the guy who ran the division which 326 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:41,679 Speaker 6: was dedicated to basically getting him, Wow and all the 327 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,800 Speaker 6: big network news did I understand all of that, Like 328 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:47,359 Speaker 6: what you can do with they have a voice and 329 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:49,160 Speaker 6: different networks have different voices. 330 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:51,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, different networks had different voices. By the way, don't 331 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:53,679 Speaker 1: forget it was Billy Bush who made that famous Access 332 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:55,399 Speaker 1: Hollywood tape. At mean, he didn't know he was making 333 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 1: the tape that was released I believe by the Washington Post. 334 00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:00,879 Speaker 1: In NBC News. No one said gotten to the bottom 335 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 1: of that about how the Access Hollywood tape got released 336 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 1: and who gave the greenlight for releasing it and what 337 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:10,160 Speaker 1: network executive wanted that Access Hollywood tape released. But it's 338 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:13,080 Speaker 1: pretty amazing to hear from Billy Bush about ABC News. 339 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 1: But that's who they are. That's George Stephanopolis, that's his 340 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:20,399 Speaker 1: news division. They're propagandists. They're not in the business of news, 341 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 1: They're in the business of political activism. George Stephanopolis has 342 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,199 Speaker 1: always been a political activist. The only difference is he 343 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 1: does it for a news organization now instead of Bill 344 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:33,800 Speaker 1: Clinton and the Democrat Party. That's why this little clip 345 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 1: from Jim Acosta was so amusing. Jim's really concerned that 346 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,919 Speaker 1: Paramount is now going to be purchasing CNN because they 347 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:44,159 Speaker 1: might try to bring some balance to that network. 348 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:48,880 Speaker 7: So Jim said this, that's something to be worried about 349 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,040 Speaker 7: because it doesn't you know, it doesn't take a genius 350 00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 7: to figure out that they're going to try to impose 351 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 7: that same kind of top down editorial mandate over at CNN, 352 00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:00,800 Speaker 7: that Hey, we're going to be a little bit more maga, 353 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 7: we're going to be a little bit more trumpy, and 354 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 7: you know, I mean, I think that's dangerous. You know, 355 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 7: we don't need to have propaganda networks in the US. 356 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 1: That was Jim Acosta telling you that we don't have 357 00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 1: to have propaganda networks. I think what he meant to 358 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:20,680 Speaker 1: say is, we don't need to have any more propaganda 359 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:26,440 Speaker 1: networks in the US. Has Jim Acosta met Jim Acosta? 360 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,400 Speaker 1: Is Jimmy Costa familiar with any of Jim Acosta's work 361 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 1: from the past. He might want he might want to 362 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:35,359 Speaker 1: brush up on his Jim Acosta knowledge before he says 363 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 1: things like that, By the way, my favorite part of 364 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 1: this real fast. You may have missed it at the beginning. 365 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 7: That's something to be worried about because it's it doesn't 366 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 7: you know, it doesn't take a genius to. 367 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 1: Figure out that they're Yeah, that's it, That's all you 368 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 1: needed to hear. I mean, he's right about that Jim 369 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:53,640 Speaker 1: Acosta just figured something out and he wants to let 370 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 1: you know that he figured it out. But don't worry 371 00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: because it doesn't take a genius to figure it out. Well, 372 00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:01,880 Speaker 1: we already knew that, Jim, because if you figured it out, 373 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 1: that goes without saying 374 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:07,159 Speaker 6: M
