Speaker 1: Welcome.
Speaker 2: It is verdic with Centator Ted Cruz, Ben Ferguson with you, Senator.
Speaker 2: It is the Coronation week, a week apparently of joy
Speaker 2: quote unquote, that's the word everywhere in the media is
Speaker 2: using to describe Kamala Harris and the Democrats big week
Speaker 2: in prime time with their convention.
Speaker 3: Well, the DNC Coronation is here. We're gonna have a
Speaker 3: week of propaganda, a week of singing the praises of
Speaker 3: Kamala Harris, a week of a plodding. So get ready,
Speaker 3: Joe Biden is about to be feeded as as the
Speaker 3: second incarnation of FDR the wonderful grand old grandfather who
Speaker 3: they just took out in behind the alley and shot.
Speaker 3: But they're nonetheless gonna stand. I'm gonna predict a long
Speaker 3: standing ovation for Joe Biden long and he's gonna stop,
Speaker 3: and there's gonna be a moment where he hugs Jill,
Speaker 3: and then there's gonna be a moment where Kamala comes
Speaker 3: out and hugs him, and they're gonna make it. They're
Speaker 3: going to try to pull every ounce of poignancy they can,
Speaker 3: and then every other moment is going to be saying
Speaker 3: happy days are here again. Joy Joy Joy. By the way,
Speaker 3: there is no border crisis, there is no inflation, there
Speaker 3: is no crime, there is no war. It's just joy
Speaker 3: Joy Joy. That's what this week is going to be.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: And there's also a civil war breaking out with a
Speaker 2: lot of the attendees that are going to be outside
Speaker 2: of the convention in Chicago, We're going to break that
Speaker 2: down for you as well. Let me tell you this
Speaker 2: week is going to be a very interesting week. And
Speaker 2: you should pay attention to how many corporate entities are
Speaker 2: all in for the Democrats at the DNC convention. And
Speaker 2: I say that because it's time that you start voting
Speaker 2: with your dollars.
Speaker 1: And in one.
Speaker 2: Category in particular, you're spending money every month on a
Speaker 2: cell phone bill. Well, did you know that if you're
Speaker 2: with Big Mobile, you're supporting democratic causes, candidates and organizations,
Speaker 2: even organizations that are advocating, supporting and paying for abortions.
Speaker 2: That is why I want you to know about Patriot Mobile.
Speaker 2: Now I'm proud to say I use Patriot Mobile. I'm
Speaker 2: proud to say I partner with them because they're on
Speaker 2: the front lines fighting for our First and our Second
Speaker 2: Amendment rights. They're fighting for the sanctity of life, and
Speaker 2: they stand with our military, our veterans, our wounded warriors,
Speaker 2: and our first responder heroes.
Speaker 1: How do they do that.
Speaker 2: They do it by taking about five percent of your
Speaker 2: bill every month and they give it back to conservative
Speaker 2: causes that put America first. And that's how you have
Speaker 2: a difference, making a difference every single month. By switching

Speaker 1: Center.
Speaker 2: There is propaganda and then there's next level propaganda. You
Speaker 2: could witness it going into the convention today and it
Speaker 2: was all over the headlines New York Times. Harris used
Speaker 2: to worry about laughing. Now joy is fueling her campaign.
Speaker 2: Vanny fair, sweet emotion. How the Harris Walls ticket wields
Speaker 2: joy against Donald Trump. The Washington Post this weekend, Harrison
Speaker 2: Wall sees joyful message and contrast to darker Trump themes,
Speaker 2: and even the Associated Press got in on the action.
Speaker 2: Harris to is pushing joy. Trump paints a darker picture.
Speaker 2: Will mismatch moods matter? This is propaganda. They all got
Speaker 2: the word they were supposed to use. You know, Donald
Speaker 2: Trump's Darth Vader. She's all you know, rainbows and sunshine
Speaker 2: going into the Democratic convention.
Speaker 3: Well, when you've got a candidate who has a nervous tick,
Speaker 3: whenever she's stuck on something, she just starts laughing hysterically.
Speaker 3: It's her response, even if a laugh is inappropriate. So look,
Speaker 3: I will give I suppose a tiny bit of credit
Speaker 3: to the Democrat message spinner. They're like, all right, if
Speaker 3: she laughs all the time, I guess she could be
Speaker 3: Jack Nicholson and Batman, she could be the joker. Or
Speaker 3: maybe let's just say she's joyful. Let's just say joy, joy, joy,
Speaker 3: And then look the relationship and supportant Understand, the media
Speaker 3: are no longer third parties reporting on what the campaign does.
Speaker 3: The corporate media is the campaign. They are the left
Speaker 3: wing of the Democrat Party. Recall, let's go back eleven
Speaker 3: months ago. Eleven months ago, on this podcast to you
Speaker 3: and I predicted that the Democrats would throw Joe Biden
Speaker 3: off the ballot. And remember why we did that. We
Speaker 3: didn't just say that randomly. We said that in significant
Speaker 3: part because the media had started getting wobbly on Biden.
Speaker 3: They had started floating the trial balloons, they'd started the
Speaker 3: effort to push him out. It began with the media,
Speaker 3: and so once they decide joy is the message, every
Speaker 3: one of them echoes it, and none of them pretends
Speaker 3: to act actually be reporting independently. Mind you, this is
Speaker 3: the same media that is utterly docile that Kamala Harris
Speaker 3: does no media interviews, that they literally earn their living
Speaker 3: theoretically covering news, getting big interviews. She's telling all of them,
Speaker 3: she's making them a joke. Nope, nope, you don't get
Speaker 3: to interview. And they're just fine with it, because you
Speaker 3: know what Kamala Harris is doing, the Joe Biden basement strategy.
Speaker 3: Her strategy is say nothing, do no interviews, do no
Speaker 3: press conferences, answer no difficult questions, stand up at a
Speaker 3: rally and read a teleprompter and, by the way, read
Speaker 3: word for word the exact same thing from the teleprompter
Speaker 3: over and over and over again. Do exactly what your
Speaker 3: team has scripted. Leave immediately, don't add lib anything. For
Speaker 3: God's sake, don't laugh anymore, and turn around, rinse and repeat.
Speaker 3: That is their strategy. And their strategy is let the
Speaker 3: corporate media carry the message. And what's the message of
Speaker 3: the day, Hey, what's the message of the week. Joy, Joy, Joy,
Speaker 3: joys of the world is the message of the week.
Speaker 2: So when you look at this convention, because it's not
Speaker 2: all joy, we've already seen in many ways the wheels
Speaker 2: come off of this convention. We see a significant number
Speaker 2: of protesters that are within the Democratic Party that are
Speaker 2: in Chicago. We saw a message that went out to
Speaker 2: all Democratic members of Congress saying, don't check into your
Speaker 2: hotels under your actual name, use fake names or other
Speaker 2: names for your hotel rooms. Because of the protesters we've
Speaker 2: seen even in the what was happening over the weekend
Speaker 2: with some of the delegates there early and some of
Speaker 2: the events early, people were rushing the stage, grabbing the mic,
Speaker 2: screaming about being pro Hamas and pro Palestine and the hell.
Speaker 1: With the Jews.
Speaker 2: There's a civil war that's happening this week in Chicago
Speaker 2: within the Democratic Party. How do they act like that's
Speaker 2: not going down?
Speaker 3: Well, there are two interrelated question. Number one, how many
Speaker 3: protests are there going to be? And that's how many
Speaker 3: protests inside the convention hall and how many protests outside
Speaker 3: the convention hall. The New York Post has reported that
Speaker 3: roughly one hundred thousand anti Israel protesters are expected to
Speaker 3: descend on Chicago to steal the spotlight from the DNC
Speaker 3: and the Harris Waltz ticket. And let me read you
Speaker 3: what the New York Post said quote, Roughly one hundred
Speaker 3: thousand far left Israel hating protesters will be descending on
Speaker 3: Chicago this week, sowing chaos as Democrat leaders look to
Speaker 3: rally around their new presidential ticket. At least seven large
Speaker 3: rallies and marches are set to take place in the
Speaker 3: Windy City, while the McCormick Place Convention Center hosts the
Speaker 3: Democratic National Convention, and other rallies are also expected, even
Speaker 3: though their organizers have not scored the necessary city permits.
Speaker 3: The causes run the gamut of radical leftist causes, including
Speaker 3: backing hamas terrorists and ending USAID to IS. The convention
Speaker 3: runs Monday through Thursday, but the protest begins Sunday with
Speaker 3: a march towards Grant Park organized by the pro abortion
Speaker 3: gay rights organization Bodies Outside of Unjust Laws. The biggest
Speaker 3: turnout is expected at march on the DNC. Twenty twenty
Speaker 3: four rallies slated from Monday and Thursday, organized by a
Speaker 3: coalition of one hundred and twenty five anti Israel groups,
Speaker 3: including the Chicago Alliance Against Racism and Political Repression and
Speaker 3: the US Palestinian Community Network. Over thirty thousand are expected
Speaker 3: to attend the Monday march, So how many protesters are
Speaker 3: we to see outside and in? And then the second
Speaker 3: one is what is the corporate media going to say
Speaker 3: about it? Or are they going to stay inside and
Speaker 3: say joy, Joy Joy and just ignore the leftists? That,
Speaker 3: mind you, the corporate media all agrees with, but right
Speaker 3: now the protests are an inconvenient message. And I got
Speaker 3: to tell you, I think a lot of the corporate
Speaker 3: took a lesson from nineteen sixty eight. Nineteen sixty eight
Speaker 3: year recall, there was a Democrat convention. It was in Chicago,
Speaker 3: and there were violent protests outside, and at the time,
Speaker 3: the corporate media was not yet thoroughly corrupt, and so
Speaker 3: they actually covered the protest and it ended up backfiring
Speaker 3: badly and it led to a Richard Nixon landslide. I
Speaker 3: think the corporate media took that lesson, and this time
Speaker 3: I think you could literally have people lighting Chicago on fire,
Speaker 3: and much like CNN did during the Black Lives Matter
Speaker 3: ANTIFA protests, they'll put Chiron's on of a mostly peaceful protest,
Speaker 3: and then cut back to joy. By the way, you
Speaker 3: could have a great drinking game. Just how many times
Speaker 3: the word joy is said. I'm not advocating that because, frankly,
Speaker 3: I don't want the liability if someone gets alcohol poisoning
Speaker 3: the first day, because joy is said just too many times.
Speaker 3: You cannot take a shot that bety yet.
Speaker 1: First hour, first hour, you could be hospital.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he don't do that. Actually, our our listeners are
Speaker 3: too valuable. So I'm advising against that, all right. Instead
Speaker 3: of a drinking game, have a popcorn, Colonel I love
Speaker 3: say something something innocuous and safe.
Speaker 2: Now, Walts even tonight tweeted out and this was so
Speaker 2: funny our Sunday night.
Speaker 1: He did quote remember the time when you could.
Speaker 2: Go to Thanksgiving with your relatives and not complain about
Speaker 2: politics the whole time?
Speaker 1: Question mark, And then he says, this is hold on.
Speaker 3: Old, let's stop. Stop. This is the friggin' loon who
Speaker 3: went on his honeymoon to communist China. Yes, yes, this guy,
Speaker 3: everything about his whole life has been politics all the time.
Speaker 3: He's the one that at the Thanksgiving table yells at
Speaker 3: you and calls you a racist. He's the one that
Speaker 3: probably chimes into Mandarin if you're not sufficiently woke. And
Speaker 3: he's saying, let's have less politics of Thanksgiving. That's rich well.
Speaker 1: And then here's the best part.
Speaker 2: He says below that this is like, is a chance
Speaker 2: to bring up the joy and look to the future.
Speaker 1: And I'm sitting there and what came to my mind.
Speaker 1: I'm like, hold on a second.
Speaker 2: Isn't this the same guy that set up a hotline
Speaker 2: to turn in your neighbors if they gathered for Thanksgiving
Speaker 2: or Christmas.
Speaker 1: Isn't that the same guy that said you.
Speaker 2: Should turn in your family members or your neighbors that
Speaker 2: they gathered against his lockdown rules in his state. And
Speaker 2: now he says, remember that time, Remember that time when
Speaker 2: Thanksgiving you can hang out with your relatives and not
Speaker 2: complain about politics all the time. And yet there it is,
Speaker 2: and he's out there and everybody's like, oh, what a
Speaker 2: great message.
Speaker 3: It's joy well, and Ben, I don't want to let
Speaker 3: this moment pass. We've covered this a couple of times
Speaker 3: on the podcast, but not everyone listens to every pod.
Speaker 3: I want you to listen to. This is the actual
Speaker 3: recording from the snitch line that Tim Waltz set up.
Speaker 3: He wanted the government that this is straight out of
Speaker 3: communist China, straight out of communist Cuba, straight out of
Speaker 3: the Soviet Union, which is report on your family, report
Speaker 3: on your mom, report on your dad, report on your
Speaker 3: neighbor if they violate the regime. This is the actual
Speaker 3: audio from Tim walt to snitch on your neighbor tip line,
Speaker 3: give a listen.
Speaker 4: Hello, you have reached for the Department of Public Quaite
Speaker 4: Stay at Home Hotline. The information you leave is considered
Speaker 4: public information. At the tone, please leave the following information,
Speaker 4: your name, your callback number, how the stay at home
Speaker 4: order is being violated, and where the stay at home
Speaker 4: order was violated.
Speaker 1: Thank you record your message at the tone. When you
Speaker 1: were finished, hang up or press pound for more options.
Speaker 2: That was back in twenty twenty two. So, yeah, that
Speaker 2: Thanksgiving not talking politics. You can just nark on your family.
Speaker 3: Yeah, does that make for a joyful Thanksgiving? Granny actually
Speaker 3: talk to her next door neighbor. Go lock granning up
Speaker 3: right now?
Speaker 2: Yeah, putting all our lives at risk, right, It's just
Speaker 2: it's just that easy. And then you look at this messaging.
Speaker 2: This week, we saw that the media actually kind of
Speaker 2: even I think it's fair to say, rejected her economic plans.
Speaker 1: On CNN, they're like.
Speaker 2: Look, this is pretty extreme that she's saying what she's
Speaker 2: saying about all of these prices and controlling prices. And
Speaker 2: even then she came out and she said, well, hey,
Speaker 2: we're going to have a housing proposal in twenty five
Speaker 2: thousand to every American is going to get first time
Speaker 2: home buyers. And guess what they said on TV, even
Speaker 2: on Cena, and they said, hey, quote Kama Harris housing
Speaker 2: proposal just added twenty five thousand dollars to the price
Speaker 2: of every home in America.
Speaker 1: It doesn't work that way.
Speaker 2: Charles Payne, he went on Fox and he said this
Speaker 2: about her economic agenda. I don't know how they roll
Speaker 2: this out in the same words this week, but listen,
Speaker 2: you take.
Speaker 3: You just heard, Well, it's a lot, right.
Speaker 5: I mean, essentially, what we're talking about, those gargantuan big
Speaker 5: government that controls everything, what we're talking about is a
Speaker 5: war on capitalism. They really do not believe in capitalism.
Speaker 5: And to be quite honest, Dave, when I sat down,
Speaker 5: I heard you talking about how this has surprised some people.
Speaker 5: I think I was never I never bought in that
Speaker 5: she was shifting her spots, you know, But then the
Speaker 5: selection of the governor from Minnesota solidified this. They are
Speaker 5: infatuated with some sort of big government knows all, does all,
Speaker 5: can provide all, and they are not fans of the
Speaker 5: for profit motivation or capitalism because it's not even about
Speaker 5: economics about them, they've got to wrap it in the
Speaker 5: veneer of economics. It's always always about control. They want
Speaker 5: to control. They want to be able to pick winners
Speaker 5: and losers and also be able to punish those losers.
Speaker 5: And they talk so vitrionically about companies. To David's point,
Speaker 5: last time Kroger reported their earnings, their profit margins went
Speaker 5: down from three and a half percent two point nine percent.
Speaker 3: Now, I don't care what.
Speaker 5: Definition of gouging you may have, that's not it. I
Speaker 5: don't care what anyone says two point nine percent and gouging.
Speaker 1: And I love that.
Speaker 2: Charles point, there's a he's an African American economist. He's
Speaker 2: on Fox Business and he's sitting there and you can
Speaker 2: tell he's angry because what we're talking about here is
Speaker 2: at war on capitalism. So my question is when you
Speaker 2: get the reaction that she got this week, and it
Speaker 2: wasn't great just from Friday to today, and that was
Speaker 2: clearly the rollout for the convention. Are they rewriting speeches
Speaker 2: right now because going with the USSR style government is
Speaker 2: maybe not palatable for every American?
Speaker 3: Yeah, let me let me agree and disagree that there
Speaker 3: was certainly some criticism, But I think you're you're assuming
Speaker 3: people are paying closer attention than they actually are. And listen,
Speaker 3: Democrats for a long time have had a campaign strategy
Speaker 3: of giving away free stuff. Look, right before the twenty
Speaker 3: twenty two election, we had inflation that was hammering people
Speaker 3: all across the country. Gasoline prices had skyrocketed. They'd skyrocketed
Speaker 3: because Joe Biden and Kamala Harris had waged war on
Speaker 3: American oil and gas production. That was the outcome they sought.
Speaker 3: But as they got close to election day, they realized, Wow,
Speaker 3: people don't like paying that much at the pump. And
Speaker 3: remember what Joe Biden did. He demagogued gas station owners.
Speaker 3: He said, the gas station owners and he said the
Speaker 3: same thing, are price gouging. They're just picking a number
Speaker 3: out of the sky and charging it to you. As
Speaker 3: if an individual gas station owner. Look, many of them
Speaker 3: are owned by immigrants, they're small businesses, they're barely making
Speaker 3: it by. They're not the ones setting the global price
Speaker 3: of oil. They are responding to market forces well beyond
Speaker 3: any individual gas station owner. But Joe Biden suffered no
Speaker 3: discernible political cost for just demagoguing the shopkeeper, and so
Speaker 3: in this instance, yeah, I'd be careful of believing our
Speaker 3: own pr Listen, we did an entire podcast Friday's podcast.
Speaker 3: I would commemend to you We actually did a deep
Speaker 3: dive into the economics of pricing and what function prices
Speaker 3: have of setting the relative value of one good versus
Speaker 3: the other, and also signaling supply and demand.
Speaker 4: And what.
Speaker 3: Kammala is talking about. I wouldn't say it is precisely
Speaker 3: an assault on capitalism, because capitalism is a term that
Speaker 3: can mean in a lot of things, but often people
Speaker 3: think about capitalism as the owners of captors, the capital,
Speaker 3: the investors. Rather, I would say what she's engaged in
Speaker 3: as an assault on free markets, which is certainly interrelated
Speaker 3: with capitalism. But in particular, what she is proposing is
Speaker 3: price fixing. Is the government setting prices and the problem
Speaker 3: as we outlined a great length on Friday's podcast. Every
Speaker 3: single time that has been tried, it has been failed
Speaker 3: because governments aren't smart enough. There's literally millions and millions
Speaker 3: of signals that go into prices, and so it's a
Speaker 3: very bad idea. But Ben, I don't want our listeners
Speaker 3: to get get get overconfident that just because we know
Speaker 3: it's a bad idea doesn't necessarily mean that the average
Speaker 3: person who's not following things very closely knows anything beyond
Speaker 3: just joy, joy Joy, Everyone's happy now.
Speaker 2: Yeah, It's almost like they said, hey, hope and change
Speaker 2: worked several years back. We got to change the words.
Speaker 2: We'll just change it to joy and maybe that'll stick.
Speaker 2: And it's scary because there is a real chance that
Speaker 2: that could actually work in her favor in a big way.
Speaker 2: I want to tell you about our friends over at
Speaker 2: IFCJ and I got to say thank you. There are
Speaker 2: so many of you that listen to show that have
Speaker 2: stepped up and really helped the people in Israel. There
Speaker 2: were so many of you that reached out after the
Speaker 2: attacks and said how can I help? Well, we are
Speaker 2: quickly approaching the year anniversary of these horrific Hamas attacks,
Speaker 2: on Israel, and still the Holy Land is being attacked
Speaker 2: on multiple fronts. Deadly threats are increasing in northern Israel.
Speaker 2: Constant rocket attacks from Hesbaala have been fired to Israel,
Speaker 2: causing widespread damage and raging wildfires that have destroyed precious farmland. Now,
Speaker 2: since the war started, the International Fellowship of Christians and
Speaker 2: Jews has been on the front lines helping those and
Speaker 2: addressing the needs of the most vulnerable in Israel. That's
Speaker 2: why I have partnered with IFCJ, and your life saving
Speaker 2: donation is helping provide not only emergency food, but also
Speaker 2: critical security needs such as flat jackets, firefighting equipment, armored vehicles,
Speaker 2: armored ambulances, bomb shelters and much more. Now, what we're
Speaker 2: asking for is five hundred of you to join the
Speaker 2: Fellowship and me by donating one hundred and fifty dollars
Speaker 2: to meet the urgent, secure he needs of the people there.
Speaker 2: Thanks to a generous IFCJ supporter, your gift will be matched,
Speaker 2: doubling your impact in the Holy Holy Land. All you
Speaker 2: have to do is call to make your gift right
Speaker 2: now one eight and eight four eight eight IFCJ. That's
Speaker 2: eight eight eight four eight eight IFCJ or four three
Speaker 2: two five. You can also go online to support IFCJ
Speaker 2: dot org to give. That's one word, support IFCJ dot org.
Speaker 2: Israel needs our support now more than ever. Support IFCJ
Speaker 2: dot org to give and thank you for so many
Speaker 2: of you that have already gotten involved. Senator literally just
Speaker 2: speaking about Israel, and I think this is going to
Speaker 2: be the flashpoint of this week. It's very clear that
Speaker 2: if you were Jewish need not apply to become the
Speaker 2: vice president. We saw that they didn't pick the candidate
Speaker 2: that every political mindset was a small because that person
Speaker 2: was in fact Jewish. And we are seeing the majority
Speaker 2: of the protesters that they're saying are going to come
Speaker 2: to the Democratic Convention are those that hate the Jews.
Speaker 2: How big of a liability could this become this week?
Speaker 2: And how much can the media look the other way?
Speaker 2: Is it to the point where even if there's like
Speaker 2: legitimate violence and antar che I mean, we've seen in
Speaker 2: Chicago they have shut down many of the areas, they
Speaker 2: have boarded up the businesses in preparation. Owners of these
Speaker 2: businesses say they expect there to be chaos because they
Speaker 2: live in a city where there already is chaos, and
Speaker 2: so they just said, we're sending our employees home, We're
Speaker 2: boarding the place up like a ghost town.
Speaker 3: Well, I think we're going to see a lot of
Speaker 3: anti semitism, and I think the media is going to
Speaker 3: try to cover it up. They're going to try to
Speaker 3: make it appear something that it isn't. Look. We played
Speaker 3: on this podcast a week or two ago, Jake Tapper
Speaker 3: on CNN desperately trying to apologize for the anti semitism
Speaker 3: of his fellow CNN commentators who were basically saying when
Speaker 3: Josh Shapiro was passed over for VP, basically saying, well,
Speaker 3: of course he was. He was Jewish. You could never
Speaker 3: actually put a Jewish person. And Tapper's like, well, wait, wait, wait,
Speaker 3: Like his policies on Israel are ostensibly the same as
Speaker 3: Tim Waltz's and the commentators oh yeah, but but Shapiro
Speaker 3: is different. Well, and Tapper calls him out on it,
Speaker 3: But it's I think you will see the media. There
Speaker 3: are going to be a lot of speeches talking about
Speaker 3: we must save Gaza. Gaza is going to be praised
Speaker 3: like crazy. They're going to be very few speeches, if any,
Speaker 3: denouncing October seventh, talking about the atrocities of October seventh.
Speaker 3: That's not going to exist. You're going to talk, you're
Speaker 3: going to hear about the atrocities, but the atrocities are
Speaker 3: going to be blamed on Israel. That's going to be
Speaker 3: the language and rhetoric to the extent anything is said
Speaker 3: on the border, to the extent anything is said on
Speaker 3: the bold order, They're gonna claim the border is being solved.
Speaker 3: They're gonna claim you're they're going to claim a narrative
Speaker 3: that they're getting tough on the border. And I got
Speaker 3: to say this week it really was classic because the
Speaker 3: Washington Post jumped in this week with this astonishing message,
Speaker 3: which is there is no border crisis at all.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Washington Posts actually decided it would be a
Speaker 2: good idea to you know, tweet this out and then
Speaker 2: connect it to their website where it says Republicans fled
Speaker 2: TV with misleading ads about immigration and the border. And
Speaker 2: I'm like, really, that's that's your headline. They said many
Speaker 2: of these ads misled voters by portraying the US Mexico
Speaker 2: border as a chaotic scene overrun by criminals and inferring
Speaker 2: there's a danger that doesn't align with reality. Okay, let's
Speaker 2: play the game, Senator for just a second. True or false.
Speaker 2: We have more people coming across the southern border now
Speaker 2: than at any other time in history.
Speaker 3: Absolutely true.
Speaker 1: Trure or false.
Speaker 2: We have more people on the Terraces watch lists are
Speaker 2: being caught now than any other time when Trump was
Speaker 2: presidenter before.
Speaker 3: Absolutely true by orders of magnitude.
Speaker 2: True or false. We have so many migrant children that
Speaker 2: are coming across the border. They're releasing them to non
Speaker 2: family members and then losing track of a third of
Speaker 2: the kids when they go to check in on them
Speaker 2: thirty days later.
Speaker 3: Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have lost over eighty thousand children.
Speaker 3: Illegal immigrant children who came in were in their custody.
Speaker 3: They placed them with adults. They don't know if the
Speaker 3: adults are the family members. They don't know if the
Speaker 3: adults are putting these kids in child slave labor. They
Speaker 3: don't know if the adults are sexually abusing these kids.
Speaker 3: And Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have lost them. Those
Speaker 3: kids nobody knows where they.
Speaker 1: Are trure or foss even in New York City.
Speaker 2: They're saying one third of all hotel rooms are being
Speaker 2: now used by illegal immigrants, and that it's costing them
Speaker 2: billions of dollars. There's even warnings that it could actually
Speaker 2: flip budgets into where local communispies could quote go bankrupt.
Speaker 3: True, the Democrat mayor of New York as cit illegal
Speaker 3: immigration is a crisis. It is destroying New York City.
Speaker 3: Not just the Democrat mayor of New York. The Democrat
Speaker 3: mayor of Chicago said the same thing. The Democrat mayor
Speaker 3: of Boston said the same thing. The Democrat mayor of Washington,
Speaker 3: DC has said the same thing. The Democrat mayor of
Speaker 3: Los Angeles has said the same thing. The Democrat governor
Speaker 3: of New York has said the same thing, the Democrat
Speaker 3: governor of Massachusetts has said the same thing, and yet
Speaker 3: the Washington Post says it's not happening. Here's what that
Speaker 3: Post article continues to say. More than two hundred and
Speaker 3: forty seven million was spent in the first six months
Speaker 3: of this year on television, streaming platforms and digital ads
Speaker 3: that mentioned immigration. According to ad Impact, which tracks campaign advertising,
Speaker 3: that is forty million more than ads that mention any
Speaker 3: other issue. Over ninety percent of the ad supported Republican
Speaker 3: candidates and were paid for by their campaigns or political
Speaker 3: action committee supporting them, and post analyze the transcripts, images,
Speaker 3: and onscreen text featured more than seven hundred campaign ads
Speaker 3: that mentioned immigration. Take it as a whole. The ads
Speaker 3: convey an unrealistic portrait of the border as being overrun
Speaker 3: and inaccurately characterize immigrants generally as a threat of which
Speaker 3: there is little evidence. Liars. FBI data shows US border
Speaker 3: cities are among the nation's safest. In a twenty twenty
Speaker 3: three report from a group of economists found immigrants or
Speaker 3: at least thirty percent less likely to be incarcerated than
Speaker 3: US born individuals. All right, let me break that down
Speaker 3: on a couple of pieces. Number one, take it as
Speaker 3: a whole. The ads convey an unrealistic portrait of the
Speaker 3: border as being overrun. These reporters are absolute liars. The
Speaker 3: Washington Post is filled with mendacity, and I want to
Speaker 3: invite them. Come down with me on any given night.
Speaker 3: If you don't think the borders being overrun, come out
Speaker 3: with me and watch the groups of illegal immigrants that
Speaker 3: are coming night after night after night. They sit in DC.
Speaker 3: By the way, the mayor of their own town, Washington,
Speaker 3: d C. Has said it's a crisis, but I'll tell
Speaker 3: you when you come in. Look, I was down in
Speaker 3: Del Rio, a town of about thirty thousand people, when
Speaker 3: more than ten thousand Haitian illegal immigrants crossed in a
Speaker 3: single day, more than a third of the population of
Speaker 3: the city. And yet the Washington Post is lying saying
Speaker 3: the border is not overrun. And then they're okay. This
Speaker 3: is their favorite talking point where they say, well, gosh,
Speaker 3: the data show immigrants commit crimes at a lesser rate
Speaker 3: than Americans. That's the same line. Remember Joe Biden during
Speaker 3: the State of the Union when Lake n Riley was
Speaker 3: brought up and he said she was killed by an illegal. Well,
Speaker 3: legals kill people too. Well, Yes, it is true. There
Speaker 3: are Americans who are murderers and rapists and child molesters,
Speaker 3: and those problems are made much much worse when Democrats
Speaker 3: like Kamala Harris pay the bail money to bail them
Speaker 3: out of jail so that they can assault and commit
Speaker 3: more violent crimes. The answer to Americans who are criminals
Speaker 3: is lock them up, not as democrats do, undermine the cops,
Speaker 3: abolish the police, defund the police, and release violent criminals
Speaker 3: with no bail. That's the Democrat approach. However, just because
Speaker 3: we have murderers in America does not mean it is
Speaker 3: a good thing to bring more murderers to America. That
Speaker 3: is an utter logical fallacy. And so when you go
Speaker 3: through the people who are killed, whether it's Lake and Riley,
Speaker 3: whether it's Rachel Marin, whether it's Jocelyn nunger Ay, or
Speaker 3: whether it's Jeremy Casaris, one after the other after the other,
Speaker 3: murdered by illegal immigrants that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris
Speaker 3: had in custom in that they released. Those individuals are
Speaker 3: dead because of the border crisis. That is not hyperbole,
Speaker 3: that is not exaggeration. That is a fact. And the
Speaker 3: Washington Post is lying through its teeth because every one
Speaker 3: of them are rooting for Kamala Harrison. Tim Waltz.
Speaker 2: Media refuses to tell you what actually is happening at
Speaker 2: the convention, and they tell you that everything's just joy,
Speaker 2: even if there's anarchi and kass outside or inside the halls,
Speaker 2: and they just stick.
Speaker 1: With the script. It's joy, Joy, Joy, Joy Joy.
Speaker 2: Then does she come out of this convention with a
Speaker 2: big bump in the polls over Donald Trump.
Speaker 3: Look, I think the odds are significant that she'll come
Speaker 3: out with a bump. I don't know that it'll be
Speaker 3: much because I actually think most of the bump that
Speaker 3: you would get from a convention she's gotten already. She
Speaker 3: basically has had a month long convention. Once they pushed
Speaker 3: Joe Biden out, and and let me be clear, with
Speaker 3: Joe Biden, when the media decided, when the Democrats decided,
Speaker 3: it was like they invited Fredo out to go fishing.
Speaker 3: I mean, I mean they they just he said his
Speaker 3: rosary and he said is Hail Mary and and pop
Speaker 3: pop end of the line for Joe with no compunction
Speaker 3: that there's gonna be an irony because, as I said,
Speaker 3: there's going to be a lot of nostalgic praising. I mean,
Speaker 3: you know, talking about things like putting him on Mount Rushmore,
Speaker 3: which I think it was Pelosi who just did recently.
Speaker 1: Like yeah, like you have to he's that great of
Speaker 1: a president, referring to Joe Biden.
Speaker 3: Yet that they're gonna bend over backwards without ever acknowledging.
Speaker 3: I believe that the Democrats, and in particular Barack Obama
Speaker 3: and Nancy Pelosi threatened Joe, either you step down now,
Speaker 3: or we will use the twenty fifth Amendment and throw
Speaker 3: you out. I don't believe this was voluntary. I think
Speaker 3: they forced him out. I think that will be completely
Speaker 3: covered up this week and instead this week that they
Speaker 3: will just sing his praises and the press will be
Speaker 3: completely complicit. But ever since they pushed him out and
Speaker 3: had the coronation of Kamala, we have had hundreds of
Speaker 3: millions of dollars of relentless praise for Kamala. And the
Speaker 3: consequence of that, I'm not sure there's much more of
Speaker 3: the sugar high we can get. They're gonna try, They're
Speaker 3: gonna try for a week, but I think we are
Speaker 3: at or near the high point of where Kamala is
Speaker 3: gonna go.
Speaker 2: You know, when you have a convention, it's always about
Speaker 2: play the hits, right, And they're gonna have a lot
Speaker 2: of people that come in and a lot of people
Speaker 2: that quote unquote play the hits. It's gonna be Barack Obama,
Speaker 2: it's gonna be Michelle Obama, it's gonna be every famous
Speaker 2: person that they want to throw up there. It's gonna
Speaker 2: be the Clintons. They're gonna clearly. I think play the hits.
Speaker 2: Is that a smart strategy? Even if it kind of
Speaker 2: takes her off stage a little bit? Is that actually
Speaker 2: a better idea because then it's not all about her,
Speaker 2: it's more about the kumbaiism of the Democrats.
Speaker 3: Absolutely. Look, they don't want to actually talk about Joe
Speaker 3: Biden's record, and so playing the hits, playing Barack, playing Michelle. Uh,
Speaker 3: you know they're gonna have Bill Clinton and has some
Speaker 3: nostalgia that they're going to talk about, Hey, things were
Speaker 3: great when we were in charge. Bizarrely enough, they're trying
Speaker 3: to run as the change campaign despite the fact that
Speaker 3: the Democrats are the incumbent party. What is so bizarre,
Speaker 3: But every time Kamala proposes something is okay, if she
Speaker 3: could magically lower prices in grocery stores, why isn't she
Speaker 3: doing so right now, like she's in office, like there's
Speaker 3: nothing preventing her. If there is this magic wand is
Speaker 3: she just mean does she just like high grocery prices? No,
Speaker 3: it's complete nonsense. But no one in the press is asking,
Speaker 3: wait a second, you are in office. You don't get
Speaker 3: to say here's my great idea. You know we're watching
Speaker 3: her emulate Trump's policies, things like copying no taxes on tips. Well,
Speaker 3: she's been in office for four years. Why haven't they
Speaker 3: proposed it. I've filed legislation to do that. Where's the
Speaker 3: White House? That they are simply trying to ignore the
Speaker 3: fact that they are the incumbent administration. You're you're going
Speaker 3: to see a lot of that. There's there's something else
Speaker 3: that I think it's important for us to point out.
Speaker 3: We've talked a lot about how Democrats engage in Freudian projection.
Speaker 3: I think Sigmund freud is is is rolling over in
Speaker 3: his grave that every single thing the Democrats accuse their
Speaker 3: opponents of doing, every single thing, is in fact what
Speaker 3: the Democrats are doing. Now, Ben, what was the adjective
Speaker 3: that that Tim Waltz famously used for Republicans, especially jd
Speaker 3: Vance weird, weird and by the way, like joy he
Speaker 3: said weird, And suddenly every every corporate meet outlet weird, weird, weird, weird,
Speaker 3: we're weird, weird, we're weird. That became the you know,
Speaker 3: weird is the word.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna read you can we can we just you
Speaker 2: just mentioned weird. Doug Enhoff today said something that was weird.
Speaker 2: Referring to Harrison Walt. You were sitting behind him, listen, and.
Speaker 6: Again we really bonded. You saw me get up on
Speaker 6: that stage and we just hugged it out. A few
Speaker 6: of my friends texted me, It's like, what's the deal, Like,
Speaker 6: I've known you for twenty or thirty years, You've never
Speaker 6: hugged me like that. Well, you've never been a vice
Speaker 6: presidential candidate before on stage.
Speaker 2: By the way, that's weird. That is just something weird
Speaker 2: to say. If you want to talk weird, And that's
Speaker 2: the Harris campaign.
Speaker 3: Okay, and I got that beat. I'm going to give
Speaker 3: you something really bizarre. This is a headline from this week.
Speaker 3: DNC attendees will have opportunities for free vasectomies abortions. Here's
Speaker 3: the news article. Attendees at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago,
Speaker 3: we'll have the opportunity to receive free vissectomies and abortions
Speaker 3: just blocks away from the proceedings at the United Center.
Speaker 3: Planned Parenthood of Great Rivers, which operates in parts of
Speaker 3: Zuri in Illinois, will park its mobile health clinic near
Speaker 3: the DNC on October nineteenth and August nineteenth, and August twentieth.
Speaker 3: According to the New York Times, medication abortions are reportedly
Speaker 3: available on both days, with vasectoms exclusively being offered on Monday.
Speaker 3: We clip them Monday's and in fact, here's the tweet.
Speaker 3: Here we come Chicago, our mobile health clinic will be
Speaker 3: in the West Loop, providing free vasectoms and medication abortion. Okay, Ben,
Speaker 3: that is weird a political convention. We're going to nominate
Speaker 3: our presidential nominee. You go to Chicago, what for? You
Speaker 3: want a free vasectomy and free abortion? Like these people
Speaker 3: are zelots.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not just weird, it's also, I would argue,
Speaker 2: creepy on a whole other level, because they're actually celebrating
Speaker 2: the fact that you can come to the Democratic Convention
Speaker 2: with child and leave without a child. And that is
Speaker 2: now the Democratic Party Planned Parenthood actually put it out.
Speaker 2: Not only are they offering free abortions and the sectomies
Speaker 2: of the DNC, but they said they've like maxed out
Speaker 2: of appointments apparently for the v sectomies, and they said
Speaker 2: we've got unlimited however, medical abortions, medication abortion. Uh so,
Speaker 2: just keep on coming, ladies with your babies. The DNC
Speaker 2: come with a child and leave without one. That's sick,
Speaker 2: all right, all right, it is certainly sick. And you
Speaker 2: think about how far the Democrat Party has come. Bill
Speaker 2: Clinton stood up in the State of the Union and
Speaker 2: he said, as a Democrat, he wanted abortion to be safe, legal,
Speaker 2: and rare. There was a time when Democrats would acknowledge
Speaker 2: that abortion was the taking of a life, and and
Speaker 2: and they defended it. But but but they didn't celebrate it. Now, well,
Speaker 2: this Democrat Party is all about abortion all the time.
Speaker 2: It's it's it's it's a reason to dance in the streets.
Speaker 2: That is just how extreme the Democrat Party has gone.
Speaker 2: But but I am going to say something. I'm going
Speaker 2: to go out on a limb. There's actually a portion
Speaker 2: of this I support.
Speaker 3: I support every delegate at the DNC getting of a sectomy.
Speaker 3: I think that I think the world will be better
Speaker 3: off if these people don't reproduce. Now, look, half of
Speaker 3: them are not actually going to have conjugal relations with
Speaker 3: someone of the opposite sex, and so they probably won't
Speaker 3: reproduce anyway. But I'm for let's just let's just stop
Speaker 3: it now. I'm really grateful. I would encourage. You're a
Speaker 3: bad Democrat delegate if you don't get snipped.
Speaker 2: If you don't take them up on it right, stand
Speaker 2: in line on Monday and make it happen. It's it's
Speaker 2: it's truly yeah. To use their favorite word, weird, it
Speaker 2: is weird. Let me tell you by Blackout Coffee. I
Speaker 2: start my morning every morning at seven am on the radio.

Speaker 2: final questions. One, what do you expect from the p
Speaker 2: candidate this week? Is that part of the campaign kind
Speaker 2: of going to disappear? I mean we saw the excitement
Speaker 2: of the DNC and all the Democrats had over at walls.
Speaker 1: Now is he just kind of okay? Next?
Speaker 2: Number one will that be an issue? And number two,
Speaker 2: h Harris is speech? How important is this speech to
Speaker 2: her future?
Speaker 3: Well, look, I think Tim Waltz. Tim Waltz will have
Speaker 3: a major primetime speech and and they're gonna do a
Speaker 3: lot to tell the narrative of him as nice old grandpa,
Speaker 3: your favorite teacher. They're gonna call him coach a lot.
Speaker 3: He's gonna be coach, coach, coach, and and and it's
Speaker 3: gonna be I mean, think mister Hollands Opus, it is
Speaker 3: gonna be telling the narrative of a nice, you know, genial,
Speaker 3: affable teacher who just mentored young people and he coached
Speaker 3: them on the football team, and and and he's just
Speaker 3: They're gonna do everything they can to make it sunshine
Speaker 3: and light and joy. They will not, I predict, have
Speaker 3: him play the typical role of attack dog that VP
Speaker 3: candidates often do. They'll do a little bit of that,
Speaker 3: and it'll mostly be attacking Trump and Trump and and Vance.
Speaker 3: I think you'll get some of he'll use his line
Speaker 3: that they're weird because that kind of made his name.
Speaker 3: But I think they will try to just pitch him
Speaker 3: as utterly harmless, and they will talk nothing about the
Speaker 3: radical policies. You will not hear about the snitch line
Speaker 3: he set up to report on your neighbors if they
Speaker 3: violated his draconian stay at home order. You will not
Speaker 3: hear about his order to put tampons in the boy's
Speaker 3: bathroom at school, because you know, boys really do need tampons.
Speaker 3: You won't hear any of that. You will not hear
Speaker 3: when they tell his life about the romantic honeymoon he
Speaker 3: enjoyed in communist China. None of those extreme positions, none
Speaker 3: of the weird aspects of his life will be highlighted.
Speaker 3: As for her speech, look, this speech is a big deal,
Speaker 3: and I think she will give a good speech. I
Speaker 3: think Republicans that are all eager. Oh she's going to
Speaker 3: fall on her face. Listen at the convention. She's done
Speaker 3: a pretty good job at at the rally. She reads
Speaker 3: from the teleprompter just fine, And they'll write her a
Speaker 3: good speech. They've got some amazing storytellers in the Democrat Party.
Speaker 3: And it is going to be all None of it
Speaker 3: is going to take responsibility for the disastrous and failed
Speaker 3: record of the last four years. But it is all
Speaker 3: going to be hope and change and joy, And you know,
Speaker 3: I think she will deliver it just fine. She's at
Speaker 3: much much greater risk when she's ad libbing when she's
Speaker 3: answering questions and being pressed. That will not happen this week,
Speaker 3: so she'll read the speech just fine.
Speaker 2: We're going to cover it all that. I can promise
