1 00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:06,000 Speaker 1: On this episode of News World. This is the first 2 00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:08,879 Speaker 1: of a two part series on the State of Georgia 3 00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:13,160 Speaker 1: Election Integrity Act of two twenty one, which was signed 4 00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:16,439 Speaker 1: into law by Governor Brian Kemp on March twenty fifth, 5 00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:20,800 Speaker 1: two twenty one. The act has ignited a discussion about 6 00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:24,280 Speaker 1: free and fair elections. In Part one, I will look 7 00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:27,640 Speaker 1: at the specific language in the law that passed versus 8 00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:30,200 Speaker 1: how the law is being portrayed by the left wing 9 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:33,960 Speaker 1: media and by the liberal woke mob. The second part 10 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:38,080 Speaker 1: will be about President Joe Biden, the legendary smear artist, 11 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,440 Speaker 1: and Biden's role in inciting the woke left to think 12 00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:44,960 Speaker 1: of the new law is quote un American and quote sick. 13 00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 1: So many people in corporations have weighed in with their 14 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:52,440 Speaker 1: biased opinions on the law, everyone from Stacy Abrams to 15 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 1: major corporations like Coca Cola, Delta, JP, Morgan Chase, and 16 00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:00,640 Speaker 1: Major League Baseball. The truth of the matter is the 17 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 1: Election Integrity Act of twenty twenty one was voted into 18 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 1: law by a Republican controlled Georgia House of Delegates and Senate. 19 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: They are the duly elected representatives of the people of 20 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,480 Speaker 1: Georgia who are in the State House to represent their 21 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:17,399 Speaker 1: constituents values. And you'll hear from our polling data that 22 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 1: many provisions of the new law are supported by the 23 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:24,960 Speaker 1: people of Georgia and the people of the United States. Lastly, Georgia, 24 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,800 Speaker 1: like the rest of the United States, is a democracy. 25 00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: If you don't agree with how he representative voting, then 26 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: you have the opportunity to select someone else in the 27 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:44,479 Speaker 1: next cycle. Let me start to say it. I've talked 28 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 1: recently to Governor Brian Kemp about this. Georgia wanted to 29 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 1: clean up their election, big mess. People were very unhappy 30 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 1: with what happened, and they wanted to go back, and 31 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 1: they wanted to do it based on having honest elections 32 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 1: and based on making sure that everybody had the right 33 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 1: to vote. But they were only going to vote once. 34 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 1: And so they pass a new law which Governor Kemp 35 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:11,799 Speaker 1: signed on March twenty fifth, And that's a very important date, 36 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 1: as you'll see later on when we talk about the 37 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:18,640 Speaker 1: planning on the left and Stacy Abrams and Joe Biden 38 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 1: and the way they set the smear up. So in 39 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: March twenty fifth, Governor Kemp signs a law which, as 40 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 1: you're going to hear during the course of this podcast. 41 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,520 Speaker 1: Is a very solid law, but it was exactly the 42 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:36,080 Speaker 1: opposite of what the left wants. Remember HR one, the 43 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 1: Crooked Politicians Act, is designed to ensure that you can 44 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 1: vote as often as you want to without anybody knowing 45 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 1: who you are. You don't have to prove your citizenship. 46 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: You can have votes gathered by the service employee union 47 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: at nursing homes. I mean, the whole thing is designed 48 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: to maximize the ability to steal an election, and the 49 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,680 Speaker 1: Left is desperate to pass it because they know that, 50 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: given how far to the left they've gone, they're going 51 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: to get wiped out at the next election if it's 52 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 1: an honest election involving only American citizens. So they have 53 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: a huge investment in trying to pass an election law 54 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: which is the opposite of the Georgia law, because the 55 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 1: Georgia laws designed to ensure that American citizens have the 56 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 1: right to vote, that it's done in an orderly way, 57 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 1: and that the votes will be counted honestly. So I 58 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: want to look first at the specific language in the 59 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 1: law and then show you how the left they didn't 60 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: just exaggerate, they just playing lied, And it was a methodical, 61 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: organized effort on their part. It's really sad. I look 62 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 1: at brands that I've worked with, Coca Cola, Delta, I 63 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: represented them in the Congress for twenty years. To see 64 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 1: their CEOs go rushing amok, not knowing what they're talking about, 65 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: not having read the bill, and do what the mob 66 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 1: wants them to do. I thought was a very sad 67 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 1: moment in Georgia history. And then they have Major League Baseball, 68 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: as you'll hear as we go through this, one of 69 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 1: the most hypocritical acts from Major League Baseball, which has 70 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 1: an organized ten year contract in China with the Chinese 71 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 1: Communist dictatorship. It has played games in Cuba, which is 72 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 1: a dictatorship. But suddenly, somehow, Georgia is a real problem, 73 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 1: and I think you're going to find it one of 74 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: the most revealing setup podcasts I've done, because the gap 75 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 1: between the lies you've been told by the media and 76 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: the truth is so really dramatic. So let's start with 77 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 1: the whole process of looking at how the bill was 78 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 1: voted on and how we got to where we are today. 79 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 1: And remember, Georgia, like the rest of the United States, 80 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 1: is a democracy. If you don't agree with how they're voting, 81 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 1: you have the opportunity to elect someone else in the 82 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 1: next cycle, and this bill was designed to make sure 83 00:04:55,920 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 1: that that was an orderly process involving honesty both in 84 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 1: registration and in counting. Now, let's start with the basics 85 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 1: of the law. The Georgia Senate Bill two or two 86 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:17,719 Speaker 1: was passed on March twenty fifth by thirty four to twenty. 87 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,359 Speaker 1: It was insigned into law by Governor Brian Kemp that 88 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 1: same day. So you think, oh, I guess the liberals 89 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 1: got really enraged when they saw the bill. No. Stacy 90 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 1: Abrams registered Jim crowto dot Com on March tenth, so 91 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 1: fifteen days before the bill was passed, Abrams was already 92 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 1: setting up the Big Lie campaign, and on March fifteenth, 93 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 1: her organization, which is called Fair Fight Action, Inc. Their 94 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,839 Speaker 1: Twitter account tweeted the link to the site for the 95 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: first time. So they have already decided to use the 96 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 1: term Jim Crow two. They actually had secured Jim crowto 97 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 1: dot com and stop Jim crowtoo dot Com. And guess 98 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 1: who they got to use those terms on national television, 99 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 1: Joe Biden. This is Jim Crow on steroids. What they're 100 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 1: doing in Georgia and forty other states. What it's all about. 101 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:25,160 Speaker 1: Imagine passing the law saying you cannot provide water or 102 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: food for someone standing in a line to vote. Can't 103 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 1: do that? Come on, or you're going to close a 104 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 1: polling place at five o'clock when working people just get off. 105 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: So just gives you the flavor of a totally rigged game. 106 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 1: And I want you to compare what they said with 107 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 1: what's actually in the bill. According to Rasmussen, seventy five 108 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 1: percent of Americans support requiring all voters to provide photo 109 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: ID to vote, so they would support the Georgia bill. 110 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 1: According to the Economist You Go poll, fifty nine percent 111 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,720 Speaker 1: of America say that absentee ballots should only be mailed 112 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 1: to voters who request them. Twenty four percents say they 113 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 1: should be sent to everyone. Seventeen percent had no opinion, 114 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 1: but that means by something in the order of almost 115 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: three to one. Those people who have an opinion believe 116 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 1: that absentee ballots should have to be asked for by 117 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: the voter to get them. The Washington Post went through 118 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 1: exactly what was in the Georgia legislation. They cite the 119 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 1: controversy quote It shrinks the window for voters to request 120 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 1: mail ballots. Rather than allowing voters to request ballots six 121 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 1: months from election day, the new law says voters can 122 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 1: start requesting ballots seventy eight days out. Counties can be 123 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 1: in sending ballots to voters twenty nine days before election 124 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 1: day rather than the previous forty nine. It also sets 125 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 1: off an earlier cutoff date for ballot application request, so 126 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: you still have seventy eight days to request. This is 127 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 1: what they call restricting the vote. The controversy is that 128 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 1: the counties in the state can send mail ballot applications 129 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: only to voters who request it. Well, as I said 130 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 1: while ago, that's actually popular with average Americans, and it's 131 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 1: clear that all they're saying is if you want a ballot, 132 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 1: you can request it, you will send you about doesn't 133 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 1: stop you from requesting it. But if you're a left 134 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: wing Democrat who wants to use your labor union to 135 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 1: go out and get ballots for people who haven't even 136 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 1: asked for one, then this is a horrifying notion. Another 137 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 1: controversy the new voter ID requirements critics say is likely 138 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:38,080 Speaker 1: we disproportionately affect black voters. We've recently seen several African 139 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 1: American leaders say that they're second tired of this kind 140 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:45,199 Speaker 1: of attack on their intelligence, their capabilities. The bill says, 141 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 1: in order to confirm the identity of the voter, such 142 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 1: form shall require the elector to provide his or her name, 143 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 1: date of birth, address as registered addressed with the elector 144 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: wishes the ballot to be mailed, and the number of 145 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 1: his or her Georgia driver's license or identification card. If 146 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: the elector does not have a Georgia driver's license or 147 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 1: state identification card, they can affirm that in the space 148 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 1: provided on the outer oath envelope and print the last 149 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 1: four digits of his or her so Security number in 150 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 1: the space provided. If the elector does not have a 151 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:24,959 Speaker 1: Georgia Driver's license, identification card or a social Security number, 152 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 1: the elector shall so affirm in the space, provide an 153 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 1: outer envelope and place a copy of one of the 154 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 1: forms of identification, which is set forth elsewhere. Some of 155 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 1: the words virtually anybody's going to be able to vote. 156 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 1: You don't even have to have a driver's license, you 157 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,719 Speaker 1: don't have to have a voter ID. But if you're 158 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,319 Speaker 1: a Democrat, and what you really want to do is 159 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 1: vote people multiple times. Anything which identifies this is the 160 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,680 Speaker 1: opposite of what's happening with h R one. Anything which 161 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 1: identifies who you are limits the ability to steal votes. 162 00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 1: There's a controversy because it shortens early voting in the 163 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:03,560 Speaker 1: run election, but the fact is early voting and run 164 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 1: also will be held in a single Monday through Friday period, 165 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 1: and that gives people five full days. State lawmakers get 166 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 1: much more power over county and local elections. Well, that's 167 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 1: true under very rare circumstances. You have to have a 168 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:24,079 Speaker 1: county government which has totally failed for two cycles to 169 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:41,440 Speaker 1: do its job. Now again, if you're the Democrats and 170 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,960 Speaker 1: you like having county governments that are incompetent, this is 171 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 1: clearly a very grave problem. They create a new chair 172 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:52,559 Speaker 1: of the State Elections Board who has to be nonpartisan, 173 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 1: cannot give to either political party, and has chosen to 174 00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 1: focus on the honesty and accuracy of the election. Here's 175 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 1: the one that got to be the big controversy, the 176 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: ban on handing out food and water within one hundred 177 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 1: and fifty feet of a polling place or within twenty 178 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 1: five feet of any voter. Here's the way its described 179 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 1: on quoting from the law, No persons shall solicit votes 180 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,079 Speaker 1: in any manner, or by any means or method. Nor 181 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 1: shall any person distribute or display any campaign material. Nor 182 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 1: shall any person give, offer to give, or participate in 183 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 1: the giving of any money or gifts, including but not 184 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 1: limited to food and drink, to an elector. Nor shall 185 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 1: any person signatures for any petition. Nor shall any person 186 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: other than election officials discharging their duties, establish or set 187 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:43,959 Speaker 1: up any tables or booths on any day in which 188 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 1: ballots are being cast within a hundred and fifty feet 189 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 1: at the outer edge of any building within which a 190 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:54,720 Speaker 1: polling place is established. Now Notices goes on to be 191 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 1: very specific. For all the lies that have been told 192 00:11:57,160 --> 00:12:01,440 Speaker 1: about this bill, here's what the bill actually says. This 193 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 1: code section shall not be construed to prohibit a pole 194 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:09,959 Speaker 1: officer from distributing materials as required by law, which are 195 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:13,960 Speaker 1: necessary for the purpose of instructing electors, or from distributing 196 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 1: materials prepared by the Sector of State which are designed 197 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 1: solely for the purpose of encouraging voter participation in the 198 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 1: election being conducted. And here's the key sentence. Now, I 199 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 1: want you to think about this the next time you 200 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:28,520 Speaker 1: hear some Democrat lie about it, or from making available 201 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 1: self service water from an unattended receptacle to an elector 202 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,439 Speaker 1: of waiting in line to vote. In other words, they 203 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:42,079 Speaker 1: can bring you a bottle of water. It's specific, it's 204 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 1: in the bill, and that tells you how big the 205 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 1: big lie model is that knowing that it specifically says 206 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 1: in the bill that they can give you water, they 207 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:57,840 Speaker 1: nonetheless turnaround say, ah, people would be basically standing in 208 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 1: the middle of the Sahara desert dying of thirst, that 209 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:05,079 Speaker 1: it was cruel and barbaric. I mean, these people have 210 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 1: no shame, the atrocity, the idea, if you want any 211 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 1: indication that it has nothing to do with fairness, nothing 212 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 1: to do with decency. They passed the law saying you 213 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 1: can't provide water for people standing in the the line while 214 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:25,439 Speaker 1: they're waiting to vote. You don't need anything else to 215 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 1: know that there is nothing but punitive designed to keep 216 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 1: people from voting. They can't provide water for people about 217 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,720 Speaker 1: to vote. Get made up. Break Now that's the present 218 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 1: nine states and there's only one thing wrong with what 219 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 1: he just said. It's a line. Democratic strutagy seems Carville 220 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,600 Speaker 1: with Bryan Williams says it's going to make it illegal 221 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:52,560 Speaker 1: to give somebody this. They're standing in line to vote. 222 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:56,560 Speaker 1: I'd never heard of water being an illegal substance in 223 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 1: the United States. This is such a total lie. He 224 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,439 Speaker 1: knows it's a lie, but it doesn't care because it's 225 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 1: the party line. They just believe that if they lie 226 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 1: emotionally enough and sincerely enough and repetitively enough, we're going 227 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 1: to believe them. The truth doesn't matter if you can 228 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 1: state your lives strongly enough, repetitively enough, and with enough force. 229 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:19,240 Speaker 1: I think it's a disgraceful moment. And I think the 230 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 1: American people are smarter than the Democrats, and I think 231 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 1: that they're seeing through this, and the most recent surveys 232 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 1: indicate that, in fact, people do not want to see 233 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,840 Speaker 1: the All Star Game moved, and people do not want 234 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 1: to see the Georgia Law repealed, and the truth is 235 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 1: gradually wearing out the falsehoods, and it revives my optimism 236 00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 1: that in the end, the American people have more good 237 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:58,240 Speaker 1: sense than their politicians. Now, I want to discuss the 238 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 1: fallout from the bill. First, I want to share Governor 239 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 1: Brian Kemp's reaction to how the leftist portrayed the bill. 240 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 1: Then I want to discuss the corporate fallout and Major 241 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 1: League Baseball's reaction. Governor Kemp, who had helped rate the bill, 242 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 1: signed it in good confidence, and in April third press 243 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 1: conference after the Major League Baseball move the Pollstar Game 244 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,120 Speaker 1: outlined the truth behind the bill, and I want you 245 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 1: to hear Governor Kemp in his own words tell you 246 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:29,760 Speaker 1: exactly how he feels for them. It's not about the truth, 247 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 1: It's not about the facts, because here is the truth. 248 00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 1: S V two O two expands access to voting, secures 249 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 1: ballot drop boxes around the clock in every county, expands 250 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 1: weekends voting, protects no excuse absentee voting, and levels the 251 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 1: playing field on voter ID requirements, as well as streamlining 252 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 1: election procedures. And yes, water can be provided to voters 253 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: that are in line by election workers. And yes, we 254 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 1: are not going to allow political organizations or anyone else 255 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 1: to harass or electioneer voters who are waiting in line 256 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 1: to vote within one hundred and fifty foot buffer. Those 257 00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 1: are the simple facts. Free and fair elections are the 258 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 1: foundation of who we are as a state and a nation. 259 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 1: Secure accessible fair elections or worth the threats. They are 260 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 1: worth the boycotts as well as the lawsuits. This has 261 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 1: been for him a terrible moment. He's doing exacut everything. 262 00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 1: He's being smeared, and he knows he's being smeared, and 263 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 1: he knows that the people doing the smearing couldn't care less. 264 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 1: Seventy two black business leaders saying a letter on March 265 00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: thirty first, entitled Memo to Corps to America. The fierce 266 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,679 Speaker 1: Urgency is now, the letter said quote. Last week, the 267 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:08,040 Speaker 1: Georgia legislature passed a sweeping set of changes to the 268 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 1: states election laws that will unquestionably make it harder for 269 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 1: black voters, in particular, to exercise their right to vote. 270 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 1: In last year's general election, a record one point three 271 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 1: million Georgians voted absentee, and they were disproportionately black and 272 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:25,919 Speaker 1: brown voters. This bill adds on warranted restrictions on remote 273 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 1: voting and disallows signature identification in favor of driver's licenses 274 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 1: in a state where over two hundred thousand Georgians lack 275 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 1: of license. In addition, this law makes it illegal to 276 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:40,159 Speaker 1: use mobile voting units or to even provide food and 277 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:44,399 Speaker 1: water to voters standing in line. It also simultaneously expands 278 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,160 Speaker 1: the ability to purge large numbers of black voters from 279 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:50,640 Speaker 1: the voter rules for partisan political purposes. This new law 280 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,159 Speaker 1: and others like it are both on democratic and on 281 00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 1: American and they are rung. It's a very powerful letter. 282 00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,920 Speaker 1: And frankly, if it accurately described the bill, I'd opposed 283 00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:03,119 Speaker 1: the bill. It course not true, and it was written 284 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: by staff who I'm pretty sure knew it was not true, 285 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,440 Speaker 1: and then signed by people who have not themselves read 286 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:10,840 Speaker 1: the bill. But who if you read that and the 287 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:13,639 Speaker 1: staff person said this is what it does, you'd easily 288 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 1: sign it. Jamie Diamond, the chief executive of JP morgecan Chase, 289 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 1: released a statement saying, quote, voting is fundamental to the 290 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 1: health and future of our democracy. We regularly encourage our 291 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:28,600 Speaker 1: employees to exercise their fundamental right to vote, and we 292 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,440 Speaker 1: stand against efforts that may prevent them from being able 293 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 1: to do so. Close quote what's true. Unfortunately for Jamie Diamond, 294 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:40,880 Speaker 1: nothing in the Georgia law met his concern. And so 295 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 1: what you have is people are being whipped up into 296 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 1: an excitement. They convinced each other by their emotions nobody 297 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 1: goes out and reads the bill. Delta on March twenty 298 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:54,159 Speaker 1: six released a statement saying, quote, the legislation signed this 299 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 1: week improved considerably during the legislative process and expands week 300 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:02,360 Speaker 1: end voting, codify Sunday voting, and protects the voters ability 301 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 1: to cast an absentee ballot without providing a reason. So 302 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:10,359 Speaker 1: Delta the day after the bill was signed, and I 303 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 1: want to repeat this because I want you understand. This 304 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:15,520 Speaker 1: is what Delta said on the twenty sixth. The legislation 305 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:20,239 Speaker 1: signed this week improved considerably during the legislative process and 306 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:26,760 Speaker 1: expands weekend voting, codifies Sunday voting, and protects the voters 307 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 1: ability to cast an absentee ballot without providing a reason, 308 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,359 Speaker 1: the opposite of everything Stacy Abrams and Joe Biden had 309 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:39,120 Speaker 1: been saying. However, once the backlash began, we once again 310 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:43,479 Speaker 1: saw a CEO crumble. So Delta CEO at Bastion went 311 00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 1: on Good Morning America on March thirty first, to talk 312 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:48,639 Speaker 1: about how horrible the bill is. No. Remember this is 313 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 1: a bill his own staff has sent out on the 314 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:54,120 Speaker 1: twenty six saying it was a good bill. By the 315 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:57,440 Speaker 1: thirty first, under pressure from the President and Stacy Abrams. 316 00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 1: Let me let you hear Baston his own work. We've 317 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 1: been working with the legislature here in the state capital 318 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:06,720 Speaker 1: for the last couple of weeks and it's been very frustrating. 319 00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 1: The early versions of the proposed bill had some really 320 00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:14,360 Speaker 1: toxic and very suppressive elements to it. The final bill 321 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 1: still is not acceptable, as I mentioned in my note 322 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,360 Speaker 1: this morning, but we are going to continue to work 323 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:21,639 Speaker 1: to make change happen, not just here in Georgia but 324 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 1: throughout the US, joining arms with many in corporate America 325 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 1: because our black communities voices need to be heard on 326 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: this topic. Voting is sacrosanct, it's a sacred right, it's fundamental, 327 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,920 Speaker 1: and we need to make certain that it's not just protected, 328 00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 1: that it's easily facilitated. And that's our goal here. Ed specifically, 329 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 1: what do you find about the final bill now that's 330 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:47,639 Speaker 1: unacceptable that you didn't in the original statement that you 331 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 1: made a week ago. Well a week ago, we were 332 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 1: working on it, So we never made a statement that 333 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:57,239 Speaker 1: we were in support of the bill, that we were 334 00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:00,240 Speaker 1: working on the bill and making changes as we are 335 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 1: going through it. We've had concerned throughout the process and 336 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,400 Speaker 1: once we've had track chance now in the last couple 337 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 1: days to fully comprehend to talk to all people involved, 338 00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:12,959 Speaker 1: a lot of leaders in the African American community as 339 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 1: well as our own employees. It's really clear to us 340 00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 1: that this is going to have a significant impact on 341 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:21,359 Speaker 1: their perception of their ability to gain access to the bulls, 342 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 1: and we don't support that. Notice from what you just 343 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 1: heard that the CEO of Delta explained that they never 344 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 1: made a statement we were in support of the bill, 345 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:35,440 Speaker 1: when five days earlier they were very positive about the bill. 346 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 1: So it tells you again, once the mob starts, it 347 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 1: scares people. When they get scared, they say really dumb things, 348 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:48,120 Speaker 1: and particularly because they don't do any research, they don't 349 00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:51,800 Speaker 1: read it. They have some woke staffer who graduated from 350 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:55,159 Speaker 1: Harvard or Princeton or Yale who's running around as the 351 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,879 Speaker 1: deputy assistant to the CEO, who rushes it and says, oh, 352 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:01,119 Speaker 1: you've got to do this, you gotta do this, because 353 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:04,640 Speaker 1: after all, back at their college campus, everybody's already out 354 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 1: of touch with reality and they all know that Stacey 355 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 1: Abrahams wants it, and if Joe Biden wants it, then 356 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:14,480 Speaker 1: we all wanted, even if it's a lie. So again 357 00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:20,440 Speaker 1: watching the woke mob go to work. Here's what James Quincy, 358 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:23,360 Speaker 1: the CEO of Coca Cola said the Georgia law let 359 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 1: me beat crystal clear and unequivocal. This legislation is unacceptable. 360 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 1: It is a step backwards, and it does not promote 361 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 1: principles we have stood for in Georgia around broad access 362 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 1: to voting, around bot a convenience, about ensuring it election 363 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,680 Speaker 1: integrity and is this is frankly, just a step backwards. 364 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 1: We've spent many decades promoting within Georgia a better society 365 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 1: and a better environment for brisiness and this is a 366 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,640 Speaker 1: step backwards and we're very clear on that and our 367 00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:59,120 Speaker 1: position remains the same. This legislation is wrong and needs 368 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:01,919 Speaker 1: to be remedied, and we will continue to advocate for it, 369 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:07,480 Speaker 1: both in private and now even multlearly in public. By 370 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:11,760 Speaker 1: the way, we checked, Coca Cola requires an ID to 371 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:15,919 Speaker 1: attend their shareholder meeting, and they said in instructions quote 372 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:19,160 Speaker 1: at the entrance to the meeting, we will verify your 373 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 1: registration and request to see your admission ticket and a 374 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 1: valid form of photo identification such as a driver's license 375 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:30,399 Speaker 1: or passport, so voting in a Coca Cola shareholders meeting 376 00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 1: is a big deal. This is just one more example 377 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:37,200 Speaker 1: of the hypocrisy of these giant systems that now want 378 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:39,840 Speaker 1: to apply one set of rules to themselves and a 379 00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 1: totally different set of rules to the country. It's also 380 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:47,639 Speaker 1: interesting Georgia has been very clever. They've offered a thirty 381 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 1: percent tax credit program, which will started back in two 382 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:53,879 Speaker 1: thousand and eight, to encourage filmmakers to film in the state. 383 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:56,879 Speaker 1: The thirty percent tax credit for Georgia has led to 384 00:23:56,920 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 1: over forty thousand production jobs. Governor Kemp said last summer 385 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 1: major motion picture, television and streaming companies planned to bring 386 00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:09,880 Speaker 1: back and hire and estimated forty thousand production workers who 387 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 1: will be employed on an expected seventy five production projects 388 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:16,679 Speaker 1: that will invest over two billion dollars into the Georgia 389 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 1: economy during the next eighteen months. The Writers Guild of 390 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 1: America presidents released the statement saying they are against the 391 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 1: bill a quote. If Georgia wants to benefit from the 392 00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 1: thousands of good jobs or industry brings to the state, 393 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:31,880 Speaker 1: it cannot attack the democratic rights of its own people. 394 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:34,440 Speaker 1: By the way, there's a pretty strong rumor that they're 395 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: going to cave because the tax break is so big, 396 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:39,679 Speaker 1: and it's so juicy, and they want the money in 397 00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:44,159 Speaker 1: their pocket. Notice what they alleged. They allege it cannot 398 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:47,639 Speaker 1: attack the democratic rights of its own people. But the 399 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:51,680 Speaker 1: answer is it didn't. There is nothing in the Georgia 400 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:56,480 Speaker 1: Bill which attacks the democratic rights of Georgians period. So 401 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 1: the whole premise of this is a line. Now, the 402 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 1: one that led me to decide we had to really 403 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 1: go all out and explaining this is major League Baseball. 404 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 1: The belief is that it's the appearance of Joe Biden 405 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:14,120 Speaker 1: on ESPN on March thirty first that finally pushed Major 406 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:18,720 Speaker 1: League Baseball to decide to leave. Now, it's really unfortunate 407 00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 1: because they were going to celebrate the memory of Hank Aaron, 408 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:25,720 Speaker 1: who was an Atlanta icon and extraordinary baseball player, one 409 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:29,000 Speaker 1: of the greatest men ever to play the game. And 410 00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:32,040 Speaker 1: now we've learned that Major League Baseball has decided to 411 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 1: move the All Star Game to Denver. Think about the 412 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 1: whole concept. President Nited States want to ask about the 413 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:46,679 Speaker 1: possibility that the All Star Game could be moved because 414 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 1: of George's Law. He goes on to say that professional 415 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:55,119 Speaker 1: athletes are acting incredibly responsibly, and I want you to 416 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:57,439 Speaker 1: hear the President in his own words. So, mister President, 417 00:25:57,520 --> 00:25:59,959 Speaker 1: what do you think about the possibility that Baseball decide 418 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:02,720 Speaker 1: to move their All Star Game out of Atlanta because 419 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 1: of this political issue. I think today's professional athletes are 420 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:14,640 Speaker 1: acting incredibly responsibly. I would strongly support them doing that. 421 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 1: People look to them, they're leaders. Look at what's happened 422 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 1: with the NBA as well, Look what's happened across the board. 423 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:26,439 Speaker 1: The very people who are victimized the most are the 424 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:30,399 Speaker 1: people who are the leaders in these various sports. Well, 425 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 1: two days after that, Major League Baseball release an official 426 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:36,480 Speaker 1: statement saying that the All Star Game will be moved 427 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:40,120 Speaker 1: out of Atlanta. The statement said, quote, The decision comes 428 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,399 Speaker 1: a little more than a week after the passage of 429 00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:45,240 Speaker 1: US B two O two, a Georgia law the President 430 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:48,440 Speaker 1: Joe Biden criticized earlier this week, saying that it will 431 00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: restrict voting access for residents of the state. Close quote, Now, 432 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 1: don't you remember the bill doesn't do that. They don't 433 00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 1: want to hear the evidence, they don't want to go 434 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:01,399 Speaker 1: through a trial, They don't face the facts. They have 435 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,639 Speaker 1: what he got through, emotions whipped up, and they just 436 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:06,320 Speaker 1: want to have fun living out their emotions, even if 437 00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 1: their emotions are based on complete life. Governor Camp, to 438 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,439 Speaker 1: his credit, didn't back down. Here's what he said in 439 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 1: a press conference after the Major League Baseball decision yesterday. 440 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:23,360 Speaker 1: Major League Baseball cave to fear and lies from liberal activists. 441 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:27,080 Speaker 1: They ignored the facts of our new election integrity law, 442 00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:31,640 Speaker 1: and they ignored the consequences of their decision on our 443 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 1: local community in the middle of a pandemic. Major League 444 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 1: Baseball put the wishes of Stacy Abrams and Joe Biden 445 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 1: ahead of the economic well being of hard work and 446 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 1: Georgians who were counting on the All Star Game for 447 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:51,680 Speaker 1: a pay chet. Georgians and all Americans should know what 448 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:56,600 Speaker 1: this decision means. It means canceled culture and partisan activists 449 00:27:56,600 --> 00:28:00,240 Speaker 1: are coming for your business. They're coming for your game 450 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 1: or event in your hometown, and they're coming to cancel 451 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 1: everything from sports to how you make a living, and 452 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:13,040 Speaker 1: they will stop at nothing to silence all of us. 453 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 1: They don't care about jobs, they don't care about our communities, 454 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 1: and they certainly don't care about access to the ballot box, 455 00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:26,560 Speaker 1: because if they did, Major League Baseball would have announced 456 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 1: that they were moving their headquarters from New York yesterday. 457 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 1: I want to reemphasize with Governor Camp said, major League 458 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 1: Baseball has a ten year contract in partnership with a 459 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 1: Chinese Communist government owned company. On December twenty second, twenty seventeen, 460 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 1: Major League Baseball announced a ten year partnership with Beijing 461 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 1: Enterprise's Real Estate Group, a top Chinese state owned enterprise, which, 462 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 1: according to Major League Baseball's website, is quote designed to 463 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 1: result in a significant increase in baseball facilities, meeting the 464 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:07,640 Speaker 1: country's growing demand as participation keeps rising. This has gone 465 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 1: so well that on April first this year, Chinese state 466 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:16,000 Speaker 1: media reported that the Major League Baseball expanded their contract 467 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:19,040 Speaker 1: with ten Cent, which has ties to the Chinese Communist Party, 468 00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 1: in which itself had briefly dropped the NBA in twenty 469 00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 1: nineteen after former Houston Rockets general manager publicly voiced support 470 00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 1: for the protesters in Hong Kong. You'll remember that they 471 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 1: crushed the National Basketball Association, which cowtowed to the Chinese 472 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:39,800 Speaker 1: dictatorship in a way that I thought was pathetic and embarrassing. 473 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 1: The deal, which they announced for Major League Baseball, gives 474 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:45,840 Speaker 1: ten Cent the right to air Major League Baseball games 475 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:50,280 Speaker 1: in China until two twenty three. Not only has Major 476 00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:53,800 Speaker 1: League Baseball made money dealing with the Chinese Communist dictatorship, 477 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 1: they have a long history in Cuba. In twenty sixteen, 478 00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:00,680 Speaker 1: for the first time in seventeen years, a Major League 479 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 1: Baseball team played in Cuba, when the Cuban national team 480 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:08,280 Speaker 1: hosted the Rays. President Obama attended the game, the first 481 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:11,760 Speaker 1: president of as a Cuba since Calvin College. President Trump 482 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 1: canceled a deal between the Major League Baseball and Cuba's 483 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 1: Baseball Association where players could play in the Major League 484 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 1: Baseball without defecting. I love the way they described it. 485 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 1: The signing team would pay a posting fee to the 486 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:27,720 Speaker 1: Cuban Federation. In other words, the Chinese Communist and the 487 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 1: Cuban Communist are okay. Marco Rubio said at the time 488 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:35,040 Speaker 1: he felt that this posting fee would amount to paying 489 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 1: the Cuban government ransom for baseball players. Notice what you 490 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:42,600 Speaker 1: have gone on here, Major League Baseball, and this is 491 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:47,800 Speaker 1: true of many large American corporations. Conservative Americans. They're dangerous 492 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:54,400 Speaker 1: Chinese communists, they're great partners. Cuban Communist their terrific partners. 493 00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:58,600 Speaker 1: But kicking around some conservatives in the United States that 494 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 1: gives you status. This whole thing actually is pretty sickening. 495 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 1: You have a news media going along with Stacy Abrams 496 00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 1: and Joe Biden lying about the state of Georgia, lying 497 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 1: about a law. But you can actually just pull up 498 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:15,440 Speaker 1: the law and reader yourself. You don't have to trust 499 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:19,280 Speaker 1: me or trust any other analyst. But at the same time, 500 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:21,960 Speaker 1: I want to point out you have a Stacy Abram's 501 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 1: page on Jim Crow, which she put up two weeks 502 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 1: before the law is best you ought to look at. 503 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 1: It's really well done. I mean, the one thing you 504 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 1: have to say for people on the left, and she's 505 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 1: raised well in access of forty million dollars, they know 506 00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:38,640 Speaker 1: how to do this stuff well. And you have to 507 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:41,720 Speaker 1: ask yourself who actually did the coordination. I mean, did 508 00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:44,200 Speaker 1: Stacy call the president and say, you know, Joe, if 509 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 1: you would say this Jim Crow thing, I'll really help 510 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 1: us a lot. Or did she go through Ron Claine, 511 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:52,200 Speaker 1: his chief of staff, or exactly how did they coordinate? 512 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:56,520 Speaker 1: Because what you have here is a coordinated smear designed 513 00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 1: to incite a mob, designed to punish the State of 514 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:03,400 Speaker 1: George for having passed a law which in fact is 515 00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:07,880 Speaker 1: vastly better than HR one. You line up the Georgia 516 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:11,239 Speaker 1: Law and HR one, and you will find that on 517 00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 1: every major issue, the American people support the principles of 518 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 1: the Georgia Law, which require, for example, that we have 519 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 1: to know who you are if you're going to vote. Well, 520 00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:28,120 Speaker 1: most Americans agree with that, but not the left wing Democrats. 521 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 1: So you're watching a woke mob. You're watching the President 522 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:36,160 Speaker 1: of States lead a woke mob. And the next thing 523 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 1: I'm going to do in the next podcast is discussed 524 00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:44,080 Speaker 1: just how much woke Joe Biden has had a long career, 525 00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:47,840 Speaker 1: going back at least to the Reagan years, of smearing 526 00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 1: and lying about Republican nominees, and now smearing and lying 527 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:55,400 Speaker 1: about a Republican bill. And you'll be really surprised, as 528 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:58,320 Speaker 1: I was, to realize this is just the same old 529 00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 1: stuff Biden and in doubt lies the smears and uses 530 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:05,800 Speaker 1: strong language when he has no facts, and frankly doesn't 531 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:07,480 Speaker 1: seem to care about the facts. And if you watch 532 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 1: this press conference, you know why he doesn't care about 533 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:13,080 Speaker 1: the facts because he can't remember them, so instead he 534 00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 1: takes the most disgusting things given to him by his staff, 535 00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:18,960 Speaker 1: who are all left wingers, and they don't care about 536 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 1: the truth. They care about trying to destroy their opponents, 537 00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 1: and that's what this is all about. You can read 538 00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:29,120 Speaker 1: about the truth and lies being told about the Georgia 539 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 1: Election Integrity Act of twenty twenty one on our show 540 00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:36,160 Speaker 1: page at newtsworld dot com.
