Speaker 1: So let's start with the Save Act.
Speaker 2: You know, where you have to show an ID to
Speaker 2: actually vote in an election in this country, a federal election.
Speaker 2: It's a pretty obvious idea that makes a lot of sense.
Speaker 2: Why is it that Congress is still refusing to act. Well,
Speaker 2: there are many that are actually trying to undermine the
Speaker 2: Save Act, hoping that the majority of Americans will disappear
Speaker 2: from supporting it so then they don't actually have to
Speaker 2: do anything with it. We've got new pulling that up
Speaker 2: that has just come out, And here is what the
Speaker 2: American people are saying. And I'll get ready because I
Speaker 2: promise you Washington's still going to try to not listen
Speaker 2: to you. Yet again, a majority of American voters continue
Speaker 2: to support the Save Act. It's a simple bill requiring
Speaker 2: proof of US citizenship to register to vote in federal elections.
Speaker 1: That's what it does.
Speaker 2: That's it, and that's why so many Americans still support it.
Speaker 2: Now after months of those on the left trying to
Speaker 2: destroy the Save Act, tear it down, say it's racist
Speaker 2: or bigoted, or it's trying to suppress minority voters, however
Speaker 2: they want to describe it. Guess what the American people
Speaker 2: still are not falling for it. According to a new
Speaker 2: ras Musen survey, sixty two percent of likely voters support
Speaker 2: the SAVE Act, including forty six percent who strongly support it,
Speaker 2: while thirty three percent oppose the bill and twenty two
Speaker 2: percent strongly oppose. Rass Musin says support levels have changed
Speaker 2: little since May, meaning that the attacks in May, June, July, yeah,
Speaker 2: and now we're in August, they are not landing that
Speaker 2: punch with voters.
Speaker 1: The American people believe that you should be a uss
Speaker 1: and to vote, and you should have to prove that
Speaker 1: you are a United States citizen to register to vote,
Speaker 1: and nothing that they've done so far has been able
Speaker 1: to turn the tide. Now.
Speaker 2: The bill, also known as the Safeguard American Vot Voter
Speaker 2: Eligibility Act, has already passed the House, but is not
Speaker 2: advanced in the Senate, even with the Republicans in charge.
Speaker 2: Support split sharply by the way along party lines. The
Speaker 2: pulling down as shows eighty four percent of Republicans back
Speaker 2: this bill, forty five percent of Democrats. And here's the
Speaker 2: most interesting, almost sixty percent of independent voters say you
Speaker 2: should not be able to register to vote in a
Speaker 2: US election without showing proof of citizenship. Yeah, that's a big,
Speaker 2: big number. Now, before I give you even more of
Speaker 2: this shocking news, I want to take a moment and
Speaker 2: talk to you about how you can have a real
Speaker 2: impact on your values in this country with a bill
Speaker 2: that you have and you pay every single month. Now,
Speaker 2: so many brands today claim they stand for American values,
Speaker 2: but most of the time it's all talk and no action.
Speaker 2: And that's what makes Patriot Mobile different and why I
Speaker 2: use them. For more than twelve years, Patriot Mobile has
Speaker 2: been living their values and standing in the gap for
Speaker 2: every American who believes that freedom is actually worth fighting for.
Speaker 2: Their business was founded on a simple conviction. If culture
Speaker 2: is being shaped through commerce, then Americans deserve a real
Speaker 2: conservative alternative. You may not realize just how liberal Big
Speaker 2: Mobile really is and how much money they give to
Speaker 2: organizations fighting against our values. And that is how Patriot
Speaker 2: Mobile became what they are today. They are America's only
Speaker 2: Christian conservative wireless provider. They are for you premium priority
Speaker 2: nationwide service on any of the three major networks, with
Speaker 2: unlimited data plans, international roaming, and one hundred percent US
Speaker 2: based customer support, and with Patriot Mobile. You can even
Speaker 2: have two separate networks on one phone, giving you unmatched
Speaker 2: coverage and peace of mind you can't get with other carriers. Now,
Speaker 2: besides the great tech, what truly is amazing about Patriot
Speaker 2: Mobile is this. Every year they contribute millions of dollars
Speaker 2: to organizations defending free speech, religious liberty, the sanctity of life,
Speaker 2: the Second Amendment in America's future. Now, Patriot Mobile isn't
Speaker 2: sitting on the sidelines. They're on the front lines fighting
Speaker 2: for our freedoms. So join the movement and get great covers. Today,
Speaker 2: I want to give you a free month of service
Speaker 2: as well. You can try Patriot Mobile. It's Patriot Mobile
Speaker 2: dot com slash ben forty seven, or you can call
Speaker 2: them nine seven to Patriot and if you use the
Speaker 2: promo code ben forty seven, you'll get a free month
Speaker 2: of service. That's Patriotmobile dot com slash ben forty seven
Speaker 2: or nine seven to Patriot and you'll make a difference
Speaker 2: with every call you make. Now, support also varies by
Speaker 2: pass vote. Eighty eight percent of those who voted for
Speaker 2: Donald Trump in twenty twenty four, for example, they back
Speaker 2: to say that no surprise there fifty three percent of
Speaker 2: Kamala Harris.
Speaker 1: Voters oppose it. Again, no surprise there, But.
Speaker 2: The poll reveals a high level of agreement on citizenship
Speaker 2: requirements for voting. And that's the part that Washington should
Speaker 2: listen to the most. Eighty two percent of voters said
Speaker 2: only US citizens should be allowed to vote in US elections.
Speaker 2: I'll say that again, eighty two percent of voters say
Speaker 2: only United States citizens should be allowed to vote in
Speaker 2: our US elections. Now, including majorities across every party and
Speaker 2: racial group surveyed as well, I'll give you these numbers.
Speaker 2: Eighty nine percent of Republicans, seventy seven percent of Democrats,
Speaker 2: seventy nine percent of independence, eighty seven percent of white voters,
Speaker 2: sixty seven percent of Black voters, seventy four percent of
Speaker 2: Hispanic voters, and seventy five percent of other minority voters. Now,
Speaker 2: what is the big takeaway there, Well, the race bating
Speaker 2: is not working among minorities. They overwhelming almost eight out
Speaker 2: of ten say they support having to show that they
Speaker 2: are an American citizen to vote in our elections. Think
Speaker 2: about that, because the Democrats, to try to undermine the
Speaker 2: Save Act, have said it's racist to ask a minority
Speaker 2: to show that they are a citizen of this country.
Speaker 2: In fact, more than half of voters fifty six percent,
Speaker 2: said it is at least somewhat likely that non citizens
Speaker 2: are illegally registered to vote in their state, including thirty
Speaker 2: three percent who said it's very likely. Now, among that group,
Speaker 2: ninety two percent want the Senate to pass the Save Act.
Speaker 2: Seventy five percent of Republicans consider it at least somewhat likely.
Speaker 2: Compare with forty four percent of Democrats and fifty three
Speaker 2: percent of Independence that believe that illegal immigrants are voting
Speaker 2: in our elections. Here's something else that's interesting. If you
Speaker 2: break it down by sex, more men than women, sixty
Speaker 2: two percent to fifty two percent, said it is at
Speaker 2: least somewhat likely that non citizens are illegally registered in
Speaker 2: their state. The majority of both men and women also
Speaker 2: support the Save Act, at sixty five percent and fifty
Speaker 2: nine percent for women, respectively. Now here's the part that matters.
Speaker 2: Time is running short for the proposal to affect the
Speaker 2: November elections. That's part of the reason why there has
Speaker 2: been stalling. Democrats don't want this, and the Republicans that
Speaker 2: hate Donald Trump in the Senate who lost their reelection
Speaker 2: campaigns trying to stick it to the president. Also don't
Speaker 2: want the Save Act to have any implications for the
Speaker 2: midterm elections coming up. That is obviously messed up. Senator
Speaker 2: Rick Scott, Republican from Florida, told Newsmax on Tuesday that
Speaker 2: Senate Republicans can still pass core pieces of the Save
Speaker 2: Act before the November midterms. Scott also urged the Republicans
Speaker 2: to force final congressional approval of the legislation requiring voter
Speaker 2: identification and proof of citizenship through either budget reconciliation or
Speaker 2: a talking philli. I've been an advocate for that for
Speaker 2: quite some time. He also went on to say that
Speaker 2: Senate Republicans should not allow the measure to languish as
Speaker 2: the chamber prepares for its August recess. Scott's push comes
Speaker 2: as the bill is again stalled in the Senate, where
Speaker 2: Republicans are in charge, despite two years of House passed
Speaker 2: versions and backing from President Donald Trump. Now, this polling
Speaker 2: data shows us one thing. No matter how much you
Speaker 2: try to undermine and slander the simple idea of having
Speaker 2: to be a US citizen and showing proof that you're
Speaker 2: assistant to register to vote. In this country, while the
Speaker 2: American people they still want the Save Act at an
Speaker 2: overwhelmingly large number. This is bipartisan. And the question now
Speaker 2: is why on earth are the Republicans in the Senate
Speaker 2: not moving this forward. The answer, unfortunately is sad. There's
Speaker 2: just a handful of them that hate Donald Trump more
Speaker 2: than they love this country. And that that's why we're
Speaker 2: having this conversation right now.
Speaker 1: Next story number two, we had an election.
Speaker 2: It was a big one that happened around the country
Speaker 2: and it was a primary that was going to tell
Speaker 2: us what was coming moving forward with the Democratic Party. Well,
Speaker 2: the Democratic Party, my friends, it is dead. They have
Speaker 2: been taken over by the communists, socialist Marxist some call
Speaker 2: them the DSA, the Democratic Socialists of America, but to
Speaker 2: be clear, they're not socialists, they're communists, they are Marxists.
Speaker 2: And now we know how much the Democratic Party was
Speaker 2: afraid of them. We now have learned that the establishment
Speaker 2: Democrats spent more than sixty three point nine million trying
Speaker 2: to take down Mohammed Abdul l said, yes, the radical
Speaker 2: extremist Marxists of the Democratic Party. The Democrats in Washington
Speaker 2: spent over sixty million in support of Representative Hailey Stevens
Speaker 2: and her bid for the US Michigan Senate nomination and
Speaker 2: the the Democratic Party, and it still wasn't enough. Now
Speaker 2: the takeaway is this, the Democratic Party is dead. They
Speaker 2: have completely been overrun by the Marxist socialists and the communists,
Speaker 2: and this primary picking is getting worse, not better for
Speaker 2: Democratic candidates, even those that were extreme progressives. They have
Speaker 2: been replaced by the radical Marxists, the communists who are
Speaker 2: saying that America is evil, that America is a place
Speaker 2: that should not be celebrated, that America is a country
Speaker 2: that needs to in essence, be overthrown from within. The
Speaker 2: candidates that are winning the primaries now are the ones
Speaker 2: that say get rid of the Supreme Court, or get
Speaker 2: rid of the presidency, or get rid of Congress. Certainly
Speaker 2: they're in favor of getting rid of law and order. Now,
Speaker 2: this radical agenda of Abdul l Said and many others
Speaker 2: are seeing a record amount of outside spending coming in
Speaker 2: to try to stop them, and it is not working
Speaker 2: at all, and that's why Democrats are freaking out now.
Speaker 2: Stevens has seen a majority of ad support targeting the
Speaker 2: primary sixty three point nine million. Seventy eight percent of
Speaker 2: all spending targeting the primary went towards supporting Hailey Stevens
Speaker 2: against l said he has seen seven point five million
Speaker 2: in AD support.
Speaker 1: That is nothing compared to the sixty.
Speaker 2: Three point nine million dollars that was spent to support Stevens.
Speaker 2: This is truly incredible. Now, the Pro Israel organization APAX
Speaker 2: spent the most of any group backing Stevens, with more
Speaker 2: than thirty million in spending over the past year. That
Speaker 2: funding came via United Democracy Project, doubling them mounted spent
Speaker 2: to defeat former Democratic Representative Jamal Bowman of New York
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty four. Just to put it in perspective, now,
Speaker 2: stevens bid was heavily supported also by the leadership of
Speaker 2: the Democratic Party. That's the second takeaway. The Senate Minority
Speaker 2: leader Chuck Schumer, for example, was all in.
Speaker 1: The New York.
Speaker 2: Times wrote in June that Schumer had asked party donors
Speaker 2: to support Stevens heavily, calling her the quote strongest candidate,
Speaker 2: and spawned efforts giving her a sizeable edge from big
Speaker 2: spinning Democratic donors. Well, in spite of the record spending,
Speaker 2: Stevens could not match l said on the campaign trail
Speaker 2: and what he was selling. The public health officials toured
Speaker 2: the state with a cast of far left supporters, including
Speaker 2: Hassan Piker, who literally said that America deserved nine to
Speaker 2: eleven and that played well in the minority Muslim community all.
Speaker 1: Across the state of Michigan.
Speaker 2: You out on top of that Vermont Center, Bernie Sanders
Speaker 2: coming in New York representative AOC, and that was the
Speaker 2: trifecta of the radical left taking over now. El said
Speaker 2: also brought in more contributions to his own campaign than Stevens.
Speaker 2: The preliminary FEC reports show that l Saez raids about
Speaker 2: fourteen point four million to Stevens nine point nine. The
Speaker 2: enthusiasm from Democratic Socialists of America aligned activists delivered one
Speaker 2: of the most stunning upsets in democratic politics history of
Speaker 2: our lifetime. So what is the warning from this, Well,
Speaker 2: the warning to Michigan voters who now faced the choice
Speaker 2: between el said in a Republican nominee, a hardcore conservative
Speaker 2: in Mike Rogers, now Democrats. They're all falling in line
Speaker 2: now because they're terrified of being against El said. They
Speaker 2: don't care what he says at this point Schumer and
Speaker 2: Stevens have already both publicly backed him in their statements
Speaker 2: saying that they cannot wait for the Democrats to win
Speaker 2: in November. Abdul al said has run a the energetic
Speaker 2: campaign that inspired thousands of Michiganders across the state, with
Speaker 2: a clear focus on lowering costs and standing up for
Speaker 2: working families. Democrats are united by a common purpose quote
Speaker 2: putting a check on Donald Trump by defeating his Republican
Speaker 2: enablers and taking back the Senate. We look forward to
Speaker 2: working with Abdul and Democrats across Michigan to win the
Speaker 2: seat in November. Is a statement from the Democratic Senatorial
Speaker 2: Campaign Committee. That's the same committee that put together tens
Speaker 2: of millions of dollars to try to beat l said
Speaker 2: because even they knew he was a radical. Now, this
Speaker 2: wasn't the only election that should raise eyebrows. Representative Shri
Speaker 2: Thanadar also lost the Michigan primary to a socialist state lawmaker. Now,
Speaker 2: Shre lost this primary race in an even more progressive
Speaker 2: foe that said, oh no, I'm crazier than you are.
Speaker 2: You may remember Street from this is one of the
Speaker 2: most crazy elected Democrats in America. But the Democratic Socialists
Speaker 2: found someone even more progressive, making him the latest Democrat
Speaker 2: to be ousted by an open socialist in the mid
Speaker 2: term election cycle. Now, when I say open socialists, I'm
Speaker 2: saying the person that beat him said, I am a communist,
Speaker 2: I'm a Marxist, I'm a socialist.
Speaker 1: I'm not a Democrat. And the Indian born.
Speaker 2: Congressman lost to the Detroit native Donovan McKinney, a state
Speaker 2: representative of Michigan's House of Representatives, a member of the
Speaker 2: Democratic Socialists of America DSA, and McKinney won by fifty
Speaker 2: one point nine percent of the vote over the incumbent
Speaker 2: at forty eight point one with the race being called
Speaker 2: by the AP Wednesday morning. Now Thanadar was endorsed by
Speaker 2: the US House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, another radical, and
Speaker 2: the Congressional Progress of Caucus.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this guy was crazy.
Speaker 2: McKinny, however, won support of the well known socialist lawmaker
Speaker 2: Bernie Sanders and squad members Rashida talib Elamomar and AOC.
Speaker 2: Now McKenny also secured endorsements from other members of the
Speaker 2: Congressional Black Caucus, with Omar and Pressly both part of that.
Speaker 2: So what is the takeaway? It is this the Democratic
Speaker 2: Party has lost total control of their party. They are
Speaker 2: now being run by the Socialists, the Marxists, and the Communists.
Speaker 2: And get ready America, because many of these people I'm
Speaker 2: talking about now are going to actually be in Congress
Speaker 2: casting votes to destroy America. And that's why we all
Speaker 2: need to be paying attention to this. President Donald Trump
Speaker 2: on Monday said that negotiations with Iran, while they're already underway,
Speaker 2: and calling the current talks Tehran's last chance, it's his
Speaker 2: exact words, before what he warned would be a military
Speaker 2: campaign larger than any attack since World War Two, while
Speaker 2: insisting he would rather pursue diplomacy than authorize such a
Speaker 2: military operation. The President was speaking in the Oval Office,
Speaker 2: and Trump said that he had delayed the plan strikes
Speaker 2: after Iran, backed by Saudi Arabia and the United Air
Speaker 2: of Immirates and Qatar, as well as other regional countries,
Speaker 2: called and urged the President to give diplomacy yet again
Speaker 2: another chance, the President saying this from the Oval Office,
Speaker 2: thank you.
Speaker 3: Very much, mister President.
Speaker 2: This is at least the fifth time you've turned off
Speaker 2: air strikes.
Speaker 3: Inst on since evil to negotiate. What is your mississ
Speaker 3: American people who are leering love has changed this time?
Speaker 3: Why should be any.
Speaker 1: Well, you don't know.
Speaker 3: I don't know. I think we're going to maybe get something,
Speaker 3: but I want to give him every last chance before decapitation.
Speaker 3: Tough to do what we have planned still planned. We'll
Speaker 3: see what happens, but it's a very very tough thing
Speaker 3: to do. I think I'm very proud of the fact
Speaker 3: that I will give people, give people a chance. This
Speaker 3: is a big move to do an attack that big
Speaker 3: on the contry, and I'd rather not do it now.
Speaker 3: We've already through lots of large attacks, but they were
Speaker 3: normal large. Hopefully they'll come to their senses because what happened.
Speaker 3: Cannot have a nuclear weapon, but hopefully they'll come to
Speaker 3: their senses. So they called me and they said, please
Speaker 3: don't attack. We'll make a deal. That's the real truth.
Speaker 3: And everyone knows it, and who wouldn't call And they
Speaker 3: found out through leaks and sleeves bags, you know a
Speaker 3: lot of sleeves bags leakers. Leakers should be put in jail.
Speaker 3: They should. They have to strengthen up the laws for leakers.
Speaker 3: But in this case, leakers helped because they said the
Speaker 3: severity of the attack and Iran knew it, they knew
Speaker 3: what was coming. He was going to come last night,
Speaker 3: and it would have gone on for a long time,
Speaker 3: and they'd be essentially very little left. There'd be nothing left.
Speaker 3: And if I am given a chance to let a
Speaker 3: lot of people live, I want to give that chance. Now.
Speaker 2: The President was pressed after that and why he was
Speaker 2: again delaying threatening strikes after repeatedly holding off on military
Speaker 2: action in recent weeks and now months. As you heard,
Speaker 2: the President said, look, I want to give them every
Speaker 2: last chance before decapitation.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 2: Trump said he is still on hold for major military operations,
Speaker 2: and he said he's absolutely prepared if diplomacy yet again fails.
Speaker 2: He said, quote very tough to do what we have
Speaker 2: planned still planned. We'll see what happens. Referring to what's
Speaker 2: next from Iran. He also wanted to say, if I'm
Speaker 2: given a chance to let a lot of people live,
Speaker 2: I want to give them that chance. This is the
Speaker 2: opposite of what the media and with the opposite of
Speaker 2: the left said. They said the president was trying to
Speaker 2: start World War III. He was willing to kill anybody
Speaker 2: obviously that's not true, the President describing as a big move.
Speaker 2: To do an attack that big on a country, I'd
Speaker 2: rather not do it yet again, the President showing peace
Speaker 2: through strength now. President Trump also disputed Iran's claims that
Speaker 2: no US RAN negotiations are taking place, saying discussions are already
Speaker 2: underway despite Tehran's public denials, saying the talks are going
Speaker 2: on right now. We are talking right now at the
Speaker 2: request of Iran, back by Saudi Arabia, back by the UAE,
Speaker 2: and back by Katar. The President was also asked about
Speaker 2: this last chance, and the President described it this way.
Speaker 2: It's the last chance for these people, the Iranians, to
Speaker 2: sign a good do kimm it.
Speaker 3: I like saying that they're talking, So I say we're
Speaker 3: in talks, big deal, We're in talks, and they'll sometimes
Speaker 3: deny it, even though they spent hours and hours together talking.
Speaker 3: Now the talks are going along. We're going to hit
Speaker 3: them very hard yesterday, very very hard. Harder than any
Speaker 3: attack I think I can say general from a point
Speaker 3: of knowledge, any attack since World War Two. That's pretty big.
Speaker 3: And we were set to go, and they called, and
Speaker 3: in addition, Soudi Arabia call and Ua you called guitar call.
Speaker 3: I call some numerous people. I don't want to use
Speaker 3: the word begging, but some worked in particular A Rent
Speaker 3: did not want to be hit, and they said, we
Speaker 3: want to talk. We want to talk about the Strait,
Speaker 3: but more importantly from my standpoint, we want to talk
Speaker 3: about the denuclearization of a Rent, because it's what it's
Speaker 3: all about. This is why I'm doing this, and it
Speaker 3: should have been done. So now fifty years we keep
Speaker 3: saying forty seven years, but three years have gone by,
Speaker 3: But it's for fifty years that other presidents should have
Speaker 3: been doing what I or other countries didn't have to
Speaker 3: be us, but other countries and nobody did it, and
Speaker 3: it was time. And we hit them hard with the
Speaker 3: B two's more than a year ago now, and that
Speaker 3: knocked out their capability for their potential capability. And we've
Speaker 3: done a great job. But when we talk, we say
Speaker 3: we're talking. If we're not talking, when you ask me,
Speaker 3: no we're not talking, I'll say it. But we are
Speaker 3: talking right now, we're talking, and we're talking at the
Speaker 3: request of Iran, backed by Saudi Arabian, back by UEE
Speaker 3: and back by quitar in particular, but O there's also many,
Speaker 3: many countries, called many, the leaders of many up friendly
Speaker 3: with a lot of them, almost all of them one
Speaker 3: way or the other. And they all wanted to give
Speaker 3: this the last chance. This is the last chance. This
Speaker 3: is not something that it doesn't happen. This is the
Speaker 3: last chance for them to sign a good document.
Speaker 2: Now, the President added, the talks are going to go
Speaker 2: quickly one way or the other. The President outlined at
Speaker 2: two stage framework for the negotiation, saying the immediate priorities
Speaker 2: is reopening the straight upform moves before broader talks on
Speaker 2: Iran's nuclear program, the President saying, we're talking about the
Speaker 2: opening of the strait, having it open literally by tomorrow,
Speaker 2: completely open. That's phase one, and then phase two is
Speaker 2: we will talk about the nuclear the nuclearization of Iran
Speaker 2: and President Trump also rejected any suggestion that Iran would
Speaker 2: be permitted to impose those tariff fees on commercial shipping
Speaker 2: through the Strategic Waterway as well.
Speaker 1: He said, I'm not letting them charge. As you just
Speaker 1: heard now.
Speaker 2: Earlier in the day, Trump sharply criticized Iran's leadership after
Speaker 2: the Iranian officials publicly yet again lied and denied that
Speaker 2: direct negotiations with Washington were taking place. The President said,
Speaker 2: on true social Iranian leadership is unbelievably duplicatous. They asked
Speaker 2: for a meeting, some would say, beg talks begin with
Speaker 2: more schedule than the immediate future. And they say openly
Speaker 2: and proudly they're not having any discussion, that nothing is
Speaker 2: being talked about, and they're only dealing with Oman. Trump
Speaker 2: bargae that Iran was not only misrepresenting the negotiations but
Speaker 2: also overstating its control over the Strait of Hormus quote.
Speaker 2: They then go on to give their usual blather and
Speaker 2: saying the strait of her moves will be operated powerfully
Speaker 2: by them, when it is already completely controlled by the
Speaker 2: United States Navy. He continued, writing, nothing gets through to
Speaker 2: Iran unless we want it to, and nothing will get
Speaker 2: through unless the deal or total surrender is accomplished. Whether
Speaker 2: I ran once to admit it or not, we are
Speaker 2: in fact talking of a solution to a problem that
Speaker 2: they have caused for decades. It's very simple. Iran will
Speaker 2: never have a nuclear weapon now.
Speaker 1: Of course.
Speaker 2: Iran continues publicly to reject Trump's characterizations of the diplomacy.
Speaker 2: The Iranian Foreign minister spokesman said Monday that Terran is
Speaker 2: not engaged in direct negotiations with the United States and
Speaker 2: that its current discussions are with Oman over arrangements for
Speaker 2: shipping through the quote unquote straight of hermus We are
Speaker 2: not negotiating with the United States at this time, he
Speaker 2: said during his weekly press briefing, adding that issues involving
Speaker 2: Washington should be examined in the next stages. They went
Speaker 2: on to also say that the talks with them on
Speaker 2: are focused on establishing a mutually acceptable shipping corridor through
Speaker 2: the Strategic Waterway rather than restoring navigation to its pre
Speaker 2: war status, while maintaining that Iran would continue defending what
Speaker 2: it described as its sovereign rights in the Strait and
Speaker 2: President Trump's remarks also came after announced over the weekend
Speaker 2: that he canceled plans on Iran, after saying regional allies
Speaker 2: and you heard him talk about this, We're begging for
Speaker 2: diplomacy to have one more chance now. Speaking of Board
Speaker 2: Air Force One, Trump also said the proposed operations these
Speaker 2: military operations would have been quote the biggest since World
Speaker 2: War Two, before he agreed to delay it after the
Speaker 2: allies urged him yet again to sit down, and President
Speaker 2: Trump yet again reiterating another point, saying he is under
Speaker 2: no time constraints to conclude the negotiations. He emphasized Iran
Speaker 2: cannot be allowed to obtain a nuclear weapon, and he said,
Speaker 2: this is why I'm doing this. Iran cannot have any
Speaker 2: nuclear weapons. So there's your update. This is where we are.
Speaker 2: Things are changing quickly. Many may hear this and say,
Speaker 2: weren't we just here weeks ago. Absolutely we were. But
Speaker 2: the threat of major military action is at its highest
Speaker 2: point so far, and now we have to wait and
Speaker 2: watch and see what happens moving forward. The Michigan primary,
Speaker 2: it just changed the Democratic Party maybe forever. If you
Speaker 2: needed any more proof that the Democratic Party is moving
Speaker 2: dramatically to the left, I'm talking about communist, socialist, Marxist left.
Speaker 1: Well, you don't have to look at New York anymore.
Speaker 2: Because last night all you had to do was look
Speaker 2: at the results in Michigan. It's one of the most
Speaker 2: important Senate primaries in America, and it is sent a
Speaker 2: message that will reverberate across the country. Abdul l said
Speaker 2: has emerged as the winner of the Democratic primary. For
Speaker 2: the United States Senate see to Michigan, defeating the establishment
Speaker 2: Democrat who had a lot of money behind her, Hailey Stevens,
Speaker 2: and what many Democrats themselves described as a battle for
Speaker 2: the soul of their party. Well that soul has died
Speaker 2: and it's been replaced by the Marxists. Now this isn't
Speaker 2: just another primary. This wasn't simply one Democrat beating another Democrat.
Speaker 1: This was the progressive.
Speaker 2: Winging delivering a knockout punch to the Democratic establishment that
Speaker 2: came in not just in one state of Michigan, the
Speaker 2: entire country's establishment of the Democratic Party. And the candidate
Speaker 2: that was backed by Bernie Sanders, the candidate that was
Speaker 2: endorsed by AOC, the candidate who campaigned on Medicare for all,
Speaker 2: that's socialized medicine. The candidate who had been one of
Speaker 2: the loudest critics of America's relationship with Israel, yes anti Semitic,
Speaker 2: and the candidate who built the campaign around taking on
Speaker 2: what he called the Democratic establishment.
Speaker 1: He won. Now I want you to think about what
Speaker 1: that says.
Speaker 2: Michigan, to be clear, is not San Francisco, Michigan, is
Speaker 2: not Portland, Michigan isn't even Manhattan. Michigan is one of
Speaker 2: the most important swing states in America. Donald Trump, by
Speaker 2: the way, has won Michigan, to put it in perspective,
Speaker 2: and Republicans have repeatedly competed their time and time again.
Speaker 2: Now for decades, Democrats argued that to win in Michigan
Speaker 2: they would need a moderate candidate who could appeal to
Speaker 2: the union workers, and then to the suburban voters, and
Speaker 2: then to the independence and then to the Reagan Democrats.
Speaker 2: Well tonight, Democratic primary voters rejected that theory altogether. Instead,
Speaker 2: they chose the candidate represent the party's most progressive insurgency,
Speaker 2: the anti Semitic, angry radical communist socialists left. Now that
Speaker 2: should obviously concern anyone wondering where today's Democratic Party is
Speaker 2: actually headed. Now, remember what just happened. Haley Stevens wasn't
Speaker 2: some fringe candidate. She was a sitting member of Congress
Speaker 2: with a real track record. She had establishment support from
Speaker 2: top to bottom. Side groups spent enormous sums trying to
Speaker 2: help her campaign. Yet Democratic primary voters said no, thinks.
Speaker 2: Instead they chose the insurgent. And that tells you something
Speaker 2: much much bigger than this being just one Senate race,
Speaker 2: it tells you who is winning the argument inside the
Speaker 2: Democratic Party. Now, for years we've heard Democrats insist they
Speaker 2: were pushing back against the far left while actually promoting them.
Speaker 2: We've been told that the Bernie Sanders wing wasn't really
Speaker 2: in charge. Well, that is a lie. And we also
Speaker 2: have been told that AOC represents quote only a tiny
Speaker 2: slice of the party. Who said that literally the leadership
Speaker 2: of the Democratic Party that now is also a lie. Well,
Speaker 2: last night's results tell us is this who's really in charge?
Speaker 1: It is not the establishment.
Speaker 2: Democratic voters had a choice between a traditional Democrat and
Speaker 2: a progressive insurgent. They chose the insurgent. Now the question
Speaker 2: is what comes next, because this race isn't just about Michigan.
Speaker 2: It's about every Democratic politician who watched the results come in.
Speaker 2: We're talking about governors, we're talking about members of Congress.
Speaker 2: We're also talking about potential presidential candidates. Everyone is taking
Speaker 2: notes on what they just witness and the lessons. Well,
Speaker 2: even the Democratic establishment are in shock now. Someone who
Speaker 2: used to be the most extreme of the party, a
Speaker 2: guy by the name of Van Jones.
Speaker 1: I know him well.
Speaker 2: We worked together for seven plus years debating one another
Speaker 2: at CNN. In fact, we still debate each other from
Speaker 2: time to time. And he was on set at CNN
Speaker 2: when the results came in from the Michigan Senate race,
Speaker 2: and I want you to hear what he had to
Speaker 2: say about l Sied and the Stevens facing off in
Speaker 2: this race and what this means for the Democratic Party
Speaker 2: moving forward.
Speaker 1: Okay, Van Jones, what are the stakes here for Democrats?
Speaker 4: Look, this is the whole ball of wax. I'm from
Speaker 4: at in Tennessee. There was a guy named gil Scott
Speaker 4: Heron who had a great poem. It was called, the
Speaker 4: Revolution will not be televised, Gil Scott hearing is wrong.
Speaker 4: The revolution is being televised and podcasts and streamed and
Speaker 4: elected tonight.
Speaker 1: Why is that.
Speaker 4: It's because there is a credibility gap that's opened up
Speaker 4: between the Democratic Party establishment and this insurgency. People are
Speaker 4: looking at people and they're saying, you've been telling us
Speaker 4: the same thing for a long time, and our lives
Speaker 4: are not eating better. We got Donald Trump twice. There's
Speaker 4: also an innovation gap. Why can you spend sixty million
Speaker 4: dollars and get what like this? Because the old model
Speaker 4: was you get the donors to get the consultants to
Speaker 4: buy a bunch of ads, and you win. That's how
Speaker 4: you get attention. This movement says, I don't need donors, ads,
Speaker 4: I don't need consultants. I'm going right to the people
Speaker 4: with TikTok and grassroots. And they've disintermediated the entire donor class.
Speaker 4: Heated the entire consulting class. And this is a revolution.
Speaker 4: And so this is gonna happen again and again. The
Speaker 4: Democratic Party is now Blockbuster. These kids are Netflix. We
Speaker 4: are selling CDs out the trunk. This is a napster
Speaker 4: becoming Spotify, and it's happening tonight.
Speaker 1: So there it is. The revolution is being televised.
Speaker 2: The Democratic Party is Blockbuster, these kids are Netflix.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: He's now saying get ready because the Democratic Party it
Speaker 2: is dead. It is now the socialist, communist Marxist candidates
Speaker 2: who are the ones in charge. Abdul Al said, well,
Speaker 2: let me just remind you what this guy had said
Speaker 2: in his own words.
Speaker 5: I mean, I just want you to think about this.
Speaker 5: I do not condone at all the murder of anybody,
Speaker 5: but I health insurance that YOUO got murdered in cold blood,
Speaker 5: and everybody sided with the murder.
Speaker 1: It just tells you where people are. They are sick
Speaker 1: and tired of the system.
Speaker 5: They hate it, and so they want it solved, and
Speaker 5: I think we have an opportunity to actually go and
Speaker 5: solve it for them.
Speaker 2: That is the man who won the Democratic primary, sympathizing
Speaker 2: with those celebrating the murder, Brian Thompson, that health insurance
Speaker 2: ceo who got murdered in cold blood, and everybody sided
Speaker 2: with the murder. That just tells you where people are.
Speaker 2: They're sick and tired of the system. That's what he said, folks.
Speaker 2: Bill Lsay, the Democratic nominee, called Chuck Schumer this, Yeah,
Speaker 2: this is the leader of the Democratic Party.
Speaker 4: So you have all these plans of things to do
Speaker 4: in the Senate.
Speaker 2: Who are your biggest obstacles in the Democratic coute?
Speaker 5: I mean, clearly he's already presented himself the current.
Speaker 3: Leader, Schumer.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Like, who do you think is like the biggest
Speaker 5: set of problems among Futterman is probably the biggest issue.
Speaker 5: Futterman is the sitting counter argument to the kind of
Speaker 5: Midwest politics that I think really can work. He's also
Speaker 5: just an.
Speaker 2: That is Abdul l said, telling you that John Fetterman
Speaker 2: is an Ahle. Abdul Elsay also said he wants to
Speaker 2: out Chuck Schumer as the leader who could take his spot.
Speaker 2: I think there's a good chance it could be someone
Speaker 2: by the name of AOC. But here is the Democratic
Speaker 2: nominee talking about the leader of his party.
Speaker 6: Well, god willing, I will be elected in a majority,
Speaker 6: and god willing, our next majority leader will be Chris
Speaker 6: van Holland, and Senator van Holland will lead the effort
Speaker 6: I believe to past the kind of War Powers resolution
Speaker 6: that we need and to block funding for a war
Speaker 6: that is illegal on its own terms.
Speaker 2: This is a man who says my party, the Democratic Party,
Speaker 2: isn't communist enough, isn't socialist enough, isn't Marxist enough. This
Speaker 2: is who the Democrats just elected to be their leader
Speaker 2: in Michigan. Now, he also, by the way, hates this country.
Speaker 2: How do I know this bill, I'll say? Also said
Speaker 2: that America was actually founded, as he described it, on racism,
Speaker 2: the removal.
Speaker 7: Of the whole people, founded on the idea that we
Speaker 7: could comproize on whether or not people, as a function
Speaker 7: of the color of their skin, could be enslaved to
Speaker 7: bother people. Founded under the idea that all people are
Speaker 7: created equal, all men, but that only meant certain men phenominal.
Speaker 2: And if you want to know what he believes, this
Speaker 2: is what he said to CBS about the Democratic Socialist
Speaker 2: Party not.
Speaker 1: Remember the Democratic Socials of America. They did not endorse you,
Speaker 1: but we know that there are ideas and members out there.
Speaker 4: In the state right now campaigning on your behalf and
Speaker 4: of literature for you.
Speaker 1: It's a big time, my friend. Any concern or that.
Speaker 3: They may be misrepresenting you, no, look, asking you is
Speaker 3: one of them.
Speaker 7: When you say you're anything, you know.
Speaker 5: It's funny, right, Democrats are so concerned about what other
Speaker 5: people say about us, and I think we just need
Speaker 5: to be more concerned about what we say about the
Speaker 5: lives of Michiganders. I won't get money out of politics,
Speaker 5: put money in the pocket past medicare for all. If
Speaker 5: you want to be part of that movement, whether you
Speaker 5: vote for Donald Trump three times or you are DSA,
Speaker 5: come join us.
Speaker 1: So there he is. Is he a socialist? Now? They
Speaker 1: didn't endorse him, they work for him.
Speaker 2: This is a socialist, a socialist, It says, even if
Speaker 2: you've voted for Donald Trump, join me, I'll give you
Speaker 2: more free stuff. This is the Democratic Socialist, Communist Marxist Party,
Speaker 2: and it's very clear right now they are in charge
Speaker 2: of the Democratic Party, whether the establishment likes it or not.
