1 00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:11,799 Speaker 1: It's a rebuilding year. Do you ever hear a coach 2 00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:14,560 Speaker 1: talk like that? Do you ever your fans talk like 3 00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:17,759 Speaker 1: that team sucked it up last year? Or maybe you 4 00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:20,080 Speaker 1: did well but then you lost all your good players 5 00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:25,360 Speaker 1: and ow it's a rebuilding year. Well, that's normal, that's life. 6 00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:29,920 Speaker 1: People go through cycles. Sports teams go through cycles, Political 7 00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:34,080 Speaker 1: parties go through cycles. And there's simply no question the 8 00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:39,159 Speaker 1: Republican Party is it a really down cycle anyway you 9 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:42,320 Speaker 1: slice it. Three of the last four terms of the 10 00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 1: presidency Democrats. Democrats hold the Senate are a red wave 11 00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:48,599 Speaker 1: that should have been in the mid term was an 12 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:52,840 Speaker 1: absolute pathetic embarrassment. The party continues to pass bad bill 13 00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 1: after bad bill working with Democrats. This party is broken, 14 00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 1: lost and rotted, and we needed to get a whole 15 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 1: heck of a lot better if you and I are 16 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 1: gonna have any chance of saving this country. So what's 17 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:10,319 Speaker 1: that look like? How do we rebuild? What needs to change? 18 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:13,280 Speaker 1: I mean, the list is very, very long. We're going 19 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,080 Speaker 1: to talk about a lot of different solutions, great guests tonight, 20 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,399 Speaker 1: but I thought going over just a few bullet points 21 00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 1: here would probably help one lobbyist money. You know, the 22 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:30,680 Speaker 1: number one industry in the federal government for lobbying money 23 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:35,760 Speaker 1: wise pharmaceutical companies. I want you to think back to 24 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 1: the past couple of years, all the endless COVID insanity, 25 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 1: all the endless vaccine push from Democrats and Republicans. It's 26 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 1: got to stop. It simply has to stop these gigantic industries. 27 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 1: It's never the small mom and pop store. It's these 28 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 1: gigantic industries. They spend millions and millions and millions of 29 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 1: dollars on DC offices, on DC lobbying. They stroke these 30 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:10,639 Speaker 1: gigantic checks to Democrat and Republican campaigns. And the truth 31 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 1: is there's simply no way the Republican Party is going 32 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 1: to be able to root out government corruption while they're 33 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 1: still receiving vast quantities of lobbying money. I mean, you 34 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: really want to know why the Republican Party won't address 35 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:28,560 Speaker 1: things like big tech. Why do they talk about it, 36 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 1: but there's never anything done, never anything with teeth. Why 37 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,799 Speaker 1: go look at how many of them get donations from 38 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:40,079 Speaker 1: Google and other big tech companies. Look, you're never going 39 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: to crack down big tech when you just took fifty 40 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: thousand dollars in cash for your pack until we wake 41 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 1: up and grow up and start refusing this open bribery. 42 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 1: I mean, that's what it amounts to, is open bribery. 43 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 1: Nothing's going to change, nothing's going to get better. Earmarks 44 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: are part of this whole thing. Earmarks are a huge 45 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: out of this whole thing because this is what they do. 46 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: They get these huge quantities of money from the lobbyists, 47 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:10,520 Speaker 1: and in turn, they end up putting in things in 48 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 1: big omnibus bills. Not that those are in the news 49 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 1: or anything like that, things that are in omnibus bills 50 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 1: that just happen to somehow end up going to the 51 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: same industries that just lobby them. The Democrats are a 52 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 1: great example of this. Go look at the donations to 53 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 1: Obama and then Joe Biden from things like the solar industry. 54 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: Every major solar company, Hey, we're gonna gonna just donate 55 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 1: a bunch of just gonna do some lobbying of Barack 56 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 1: Obama and Joe Biden. What do you know, Soon another 57 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 1: trillion dollar bill is passing and there are all kinds 58 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 1: of earmarks in there with handouts for the solar industry. 59 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 1: That's naked corruption out in the open, and Republicans are 60 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 1: just as guilty of this. The top ten set at 61 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: earmarkers for twenty twenty three, seven of the highest are Republicans, 62 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 1: least for Murkowski, Lindsay Graham, Jay James Inhoff. You cannot 63 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 1: possibly rebuild a party with this level of corruption. Another 64 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: thing we need to do don't run away from embrace 65 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: cultural issues. I have watched the GOP lows on cultural 66 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 1: issue after cultural issue because they don't even fight them. 67 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: Now we have turbo freaks teaching your kids and drag 68 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 1: queens reading books to your children and tworking for them 69 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 1: on Nick Junior. Because the Republican Party only wanted to 70 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: be the party of low taxes. Guess what, Low taxes 71 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 1: don't matter if your teenage son is chopping his penis off. 72 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 1: Stop running away from issues like the LGBTQ insanity, Stop 73 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,680 Speaker 1: running away from issues like family, stop running away from 74 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 1: issues like life, and instead be the party that actually 75 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: stands for something. You never know you might look around 76 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:53,720 Speaker 1: one day and find an army of voters behind you 77 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:57,479 Speaker 1: because they finally have somebody who speaks for them. One 78 00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: thing I love about Heavy d at least he talks 79 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:03,600 Speaker 1: about this. But what I've said is that the state 80 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 1: of Florida is the state is the place where woke 81 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,719 Speaker 1: goes to die. We are not going to let this state. 82 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:14,719 Speaker 1: We're not going to let this state descend into some 83 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 1: type of woke dumpster fire. We're gonna be following common sense. 84 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 1: We're gonna be following you know, facts, and that's just 85 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: really really important. So anyways, thank you guys for being here. 86 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 1: God bless you off. It's good. Now this is another one, 87 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: and this is a really really big one. It's gonna 88 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 1: sound ridiculous, but just let me explain, all right. I 89 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: get emails to the show all the time, and one 90 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,359 Speaker 1: of the main themes of these emails is, Jesse, I 91 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 1: love the show. You just sound like sound like me. 92 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 1: You sound like one of us. You sound like one 93 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 1: of us. Well one, I am one of you. I 94 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: just got into media like yesterday. I've just lived a 95 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,160 Speaker 1: normal life most of my life. But two, and this 96 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:57,359 Speaker 1: is a huge reason for that. Do I talk like 97 00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 1: you talk? Of course? I do care about the you 98 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 1: care about. Of course I do you know why I 99 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 1: don't live in Washington, DC or New York where you 100 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:12,039 Speaker 1: live matters. Whenever the show is over, Whenever I get 101 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,159 Speaker 1: done like this show whenever I get done doing the show, 102 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:16,039 Speaker 1: and I pop this earpiece out of my ear and 103 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 1: I say goodbye to producer Matt and John and all 104 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,920 Speaker 1: the fellas, and I go home. I don't go hang 105 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:25,280 Speaker 1: out with lobbyists. I don't go hang out with congressmen 106 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 1: and senators. I don't go hang out with campaign staffers. 107 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,480 Speaker 1: In fact, I don't have a single person in my 108 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:36,279 Speaker 1: life in my area who was a political person. I 109 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 1: go and I hang out with normal people. All my 110 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 1: neighbors are just normal people. Hanging out with normal people 111 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 1: gives me perspective on how normal people think, what they 112 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,719 Speaker 1: care about, what they don't care about. That's why I 113 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 1: sound like you. I just hang out with normal people 114 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 1: just like you do. When I leave here, I'm going 115 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 1: to go have a beer and play cornhole with the 116 00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:58,840 Speaker 1: neighbors and watch the kids swim in the pool. If 117 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 1: it's eat it up, That's what I'm going to do. 118 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: A huge problem for these people is they spend way 119 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 1: too much time not only in Washington, DC, but in 120 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 1: political circles. But Washington DC is a huge problem because 121 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 1: the entire city is political. It's not like it's just 122 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: the people who are elected. Virtually everyone in that city 123 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 1: is connected to politics. How could you be so out 124 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 1: of touch to think that every single person, every Republican's 125 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 1: number one concern is Ukraine. You've spent way too much 126 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 1: time in Washington DC making sure the Defense Department can 127 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: deal with the major threats coming from Russia and China, 128 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 1: providing assistance for the Ukrainians to defeat the Russians. That's 129 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 1: the number one priority for the United States right now. 130 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 1: According to most Republicans. That's sort of how we see 131 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 1: the challenges confronting the country at the moment. You've got 132 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 1: to get out of Washington, DC. You have got to 133 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 1: be in Washington, d C. For the bare minimum amount 134 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 1: of time, otherwise you find yourself living in a world 135 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 1: of make believe. Like old Mitch. There. Another thing we 136 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:21,559 Speaker 1: need to do is toughen up. No more. We're better 137 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:26,239 Speaker 1: than that. No more do we go? What about our principles? 138 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 1: No more? Well, I don't want to be involved in 139 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 1: a tip for tat. Those who broke the laws will 140 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: be held to account. But this cannot be and it 141 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 1: will not be a tip for tat exercise. We are 142 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 1: not going to lower the standards just to achieve a result. Yeah, 143 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:52,200 Speaker 1: he left the DOJ. Merritt Garland promptly went into the 144 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:55,440 Speaker 1: DOJ and started arresting pro lifers for reading Bible verses. 145 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:57,679 Speaker 1: We have got to stop this. We're better than them, 146 00:08:57,720 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: We're above that talk, and we have got to start 147 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 1: punching back the same way they do until they fear us. 148 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:09,559 Speaker 1: They're never going to stop, which brings us to the media. 149 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: You want to know how to treat the media. You 150 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: wan't know how. Let's go to somebody you hate. Here's 151 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi Grandma Vodka showing you how you treat the media. 152 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,520 Speaker 1: Will you commit to serving your full to year term 153 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 1: for the people of Sanfords? And what is this? Don't 154 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:30,560 Speaker 1: bother me with a question like that? Really, really okay, 155 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:34,719 Speaker 1: matter what I'm gonna do. Yeah, I know, those kind 156 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 1: of questions are such a word of my time. No, 157 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 1: I mean, yes, sir. They're not defenders of democracy. They're 158 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 1: not journalists. They're pathetic, stupid communist apparatics, and their goal 159 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 1: in life every single day when they go down to 160 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 1: their blog or their newspaper or CNN, is to destroy 161 00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:00,120 Speaker 1: you and every single thing you care about. Stop trying 162 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,680 Speaker 1: to earn their approval. In fact, start trying to earn 163 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 1: their disapproval. You should be out there every day trying 164 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 1: to earn their hate. There, that's a great start. Now 165 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 1: we're going to talk to Aaron McIntyre about change to 166 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 1: the mentality and what time it is next. Each morning, 167 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,679 Speaker 1: the President of the United States receives a highly classified 168 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 1: briefing on the most important issues facing the country. It's 169 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 1: called the President's Daily Brief or PDB. It's delivered by 170 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 1: America's spies and analysts. Well, now you can hear your 171 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 1: very own PDB in the form of a podcast hosted 172 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 1: by me Brian Dean Wright, a former CIA operations officer. 173 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 1: Each morning at six am Eastern, I'll bring you fifteen 174 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,240 Speaker 1: to twenty minutes of the most important issues facing the country, 175 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 1: giving you the critical intelligence and analysis you need to 176 00:10:54,920 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 1: start your morning. The geop sucks. That's not exactly news. 177 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:13,960 Speaker 1: But if you're anything like me, you're getting frustrated with 178 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:16,959 Speaker 1: this party of weak losers who doesn't know what time 179 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 1: it is. They don't stand really for anything, and we're 180 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 1: hungering for something new. We can have something new, We 181 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:26,680 Speaker 1: could try to rebuild this one. Joining me now, my 182 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:30,360 Speaker 1: friend Arn MacIntyre, who now if I have this right 183 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 1: on works for the Blaze, Yes, sir, just Scott started 184 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 1: here recently. Congratulations, my friend well deserved. Not surprised at 185 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 1: the least, all Right, First of all, explain to people 186 00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: why the GOP sucks. Because a lot of people hate 187 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:50,120 Speaker 1: the GEOP. It's not new. But what really makes them 188 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 1: so useless? What's wrong with them? Well, of course, there's 189 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 1: a lot of different issues, but the main one I 190 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 1: think right now is the understanding of kind of where 191 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 1: we're at. Like you said time, it is a lot 192 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 1: of people in the GOP are still fighting as if 193 00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 1: they're somewhere in the nineteen nineties. They're hoping that a 194 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 1: small course correction in language, a general change in direction 195 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 1: will kind of put everything back on track right, And 196 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 1: what we're seeing is that this continually playing the small 197 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,319 Speaker 1: ball and letting the frame get set by their opponents 198 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:24,959 Speaker 1: instead of understanding that the people who are doing this 199 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 1: are malicious and don't have your best interests in mind 200 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:33,440 Speaker 1: and don't share your values. It's constantly leading them to failure. Well, 201 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 1: if it's obvious, look, it's the stuff is obvious to 202 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:38,839 Speaker 1: normal people. It's obvious to everyone watching you and me, 203 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 1: talk right now, it's obvious to me and I have 204 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 1: an IQ of five. So why do the Harvard educated 205 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:50,680 Speaker 1: GOP senators not see what mister construction can see. Well, again, 206 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:53,679 Speaker 1: there's a lot of different reasons. One reason is allow 207 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:56,440 Speaker 1: of these people share a class and share an interest 208 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 1: with many of the Democrats and those in power. These 209 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 1: people work constantly in things like the Security State Apparatus, 210 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 1: They're involved with federal law enforcement. They have deep interest 211 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 1: when it comes to woke capital that is now aligned 212 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 1: with the Democrats. And so while it's very useful for 213 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:17,320 Speaker 1: them to appear opposed to certain aspects, they make sure 214 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 1: to never really challenge anything that's at the core of 215 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 1: what's going on. And the people who are actually interested 216 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 1: in changing things, the people who aren't completely bought and 217 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 1: sold in many ways, they're scared of taking on the 218 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 1: big issues because, as we're seeing from things like the 219 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 1: Twitter files, the corruption runs deep into very essential parts 220 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:38,360 Speaker 1: of our state, like the FBI, and that's the kind 221 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 1: of thing that you don't just draft a piece of 222 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 1: legislation to fix. You can't just hold a committee hearing 223 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 1: and hope that that's going to go ahead and scare 224 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,680 Speaker 1: people and acting correctly, it's a much more serious and 225 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 1: much deeper problem that rubs a lot of very powerful 226 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:54,720 Speaker 1: people the wrong way, and a lot of people aren't 227 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 1: willing to take that on. Why does it rub people 228 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 1: the wrong way? On? Because I agree with what you're saying. 229 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: We're dealing with class differences here. But I would think 230 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:09,319 Speaker 1: a Washington, DC millionaire, just like the rural Iowa farmer, 231 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 1: doesn't want his son to chop his penis off. Well, 232 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 1: you would think that, But the social pressure is really immense. 233 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 1: I mean, look what has happened in a party like 234 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:22,120 Speaker 1: the GOP over the last ten fifteen years, just on 235 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 1: the issue of the definition of marriage. Right, the position 236 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 1: of many people in the GOP is now very far 237 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 1: to the left of people like Barack Obama and Joe 238 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 1: Biden just not that long ago. And so actually they're 239 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:39,080 Speaker 1: not interested in ruffling those fairs and many feathers. In 240 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 1: many way, they've taken those definitions and taken the values 241 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 1: of the left on as the status quo. They are 242 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 1: treating those things as a fat to complete and there's 243 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 1: no reason for them to challenge any of that kind 244 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:52,760 Speaker 1: of stuff. This is also true again of things like 245 00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 1: the FBI when you have people who for a very 246 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 1: long time understandably have asked people to support the government, support, 247 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 1: you know, people who are supposed to be protecting us, 248 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 1: it's very difficult for them to turn around and say, okay, well, 249 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 1: now those people that now that apparatus is the same 250 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:12,480 Speaker 1: thing that is endangering many people who are in red states, 251 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 1: conservatives trying to protect their children. It's a very difficult 252 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 1: thing for many people who admitted that requires them to say, 253 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 1: we made mistakes, we didn't see what was coming down 254 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 1: the pipe. And when you're a leader, that's often the 255 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 1: scariest thing to do. Are you mentioned the very beginning reframing, 256 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 1: How we don't reframe you mean some kind of an example, 257 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 1: some kind of an explanation. What does that mean? Because 258 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 1: you're right, we allow them to set the terms. We 259 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 1: play on their field, with their referees enforcing their rules 260 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 1: at all times. It's amazing to watch. What should we 261 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 1: be doing. Well, let's take a look at something really current. Right, 262 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 1: we just had Elon Musk kicking some journalists off the 263 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 1: Twitter for docking him and his kids, right, and it's 264 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 1: an extremely dangerous situation. I believe Elon Musk's son was 265 00:15:56,000 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 1: already followed by an alleged stalker, so he's very taking 266 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 1: this very seriously. And of course we saw a bunch 267 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 1: of right wing por people who are supposed to be 268 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:10,400 Speaker 1: right wings, conservative commentators rushed to the defense of these journalists. 269 00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:12,160 Speaker 1: And you can never kick them off. You can never 270 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 1: even give them a temporary suspension for this kind of things, 271 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 1: because it's an abuse of power. But of course these 272 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 1: journalists would never treat anyone like that. They were, of 273 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 1: course endangering these people. They knew they were endangering these people. 274 00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 1: We've seen that journalists are regularly complicit in the intimidation 275 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 1: and eventual instigation of left wing violence. We saw that 276 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 1: with the riots of the last election. We saw that 277 00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 1: with things like the encouragement of illegal mobs outside the 278 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 1: houses of Supreme Court justices after the leak of the 279 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:48,840 Speaker 1: Row versus Wade decision, and the eventual threats on people 280 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:52,000 Speaker 1: like Brett Cavanaugh. So we know that the journalists are 281 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 1: more than happy to docs people, point mobs at them, 282 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 1: threatened people, intimidate them. This is a regular feature of 283 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 1: the left. But rather than recognize this and recognize that 284 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 1: Elon Musk was taking steps to send a message to 285 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:05,879 Speaker 1: these people that, hey, you don't get to threaten my family. 286 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,440 Speaker 1: And I thought that was a conservative value, right fathers 287 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:11,239 Speaker 1: protecting their families. But instead we got a bunch of 288 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 1: really weak Republican GOP conservative commentator rushing forward saying no, no, 289 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 1: those aren't our principles. We can't have consequences for our 290 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 1: enemies actions that would teach them the wrong lesson. And 291 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:24,639 Speaker 1: it's I mean, how could we not lose with that 292 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:30,440 Speaker 1: kind of approach? Are on? We haven't had a real 293 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:33,440 Speaker 1: third party, not a robust third party in this country, 294 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 1: which is kind of weird. I mean people don't realize 295 00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:39,240 Speaker 1: like Canada has like twenty five parties, Europe has a thousand, 296 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 1: we have this real rigid two party system here. As 297 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 1: dissatisfaction with both parties grows, do you think we will 298 00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:50,399 Speaker 1: finally get something? We really haven't had some kind of 299 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 1: a third party rise. And I'm not talking about the Libertarians. 300 00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:58,359 Speaker 1: I mean it's possible, but these often have very disastrous, 301 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 1: disastrous effects for the party as they splinter off of right. 302 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 1: You look at something like the election of Woodrow Wilson, 303 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:08,479 Speaker 1: which happens because Teddy Roosevelt decides to run against what 304 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:12,679 Speaker 1: was his original and originally appointed successor taft Right, and 305 00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: that ensures that Wilson wins. So splitting the party is 306 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 1: just mathematically a failure. In the United States, over and 307 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:21,639 Speaker 1: over again, it's it's pretty much always a mistake. I 308 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 1: think you will see a rise of people who are 309 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,919 Speaker 1: very fed up with what's happening. Again, I don't know 310 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:30,679 Speaker 1: that the GOP is able to be reformed, but if 311 00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 1: there is going to be a popular political force that arises, 312 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 1: it probably will need to take a path through the GOP. 313 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:40,880 Speaker 1: Though what will be the GOOP once it rises will 314 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 1: look drastically different from what it looks like right now. 315 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 1: If it does the GOP as it's currently constituted, the 316 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:52,720 Speaker 1: potential twenty twenty four field, we're talking about rebuilding it. 317 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 1: Am I the only one who's basically indifferent to all 318 00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 1: these people at this point in time. Everyone seems to 319 00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:02,640 Speaker 1: be in love with someone I'm not. Don't really care. Yeah, again, 320 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 1: I think it's focusing on the wrong thing. I mean, 321 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:07,480 Speaker 1: don't give Obviously it matters who runs. That will be 322 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 1: a big deal. But until the GOP is willing to 323 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 1: address things that are a real systemic issue, a real 324 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,919 Speaker 1: mechanical issue for them, then I don't understand how they 325 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,119 Speaker 1: can move forward. As we're looking at the Twitter files, 326 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 1: we now understand very clearly that federal law enforcement, the FBI, 327 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 1: involves itself very directly, and not only the censorship of 328 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:30,440 Speaker 1: regular people on social media and in a very politically 329 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:36,440 Speaker 1: motivated manner, but it actually directly involves itself in election outcomes. 330 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 1: It wants to interfere in elections. We also see the 331 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:43,679 Speaker 1: transformation of the voting system to now, you know, we 332 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 1: instead of having day of elections, we now have weeks 333 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 1: and weeks of possible ballot counting, all designed to allow 334 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:56,199 Speaker 1: the procedural manipulation by Democrats who have really invested heavily 335 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,000 Speaker 1: in controlling this apparatus to make sure that elections go 336 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 1: their way. If you're a serious party, if the jup 337 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:04,239 Speaker 1: he ever wants to be a serious party, they have 338 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:06,640 Speaker 1: to address this stuff, and they have to address it now. 339 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:10,359 Speaker 1: They can't sit around, you know, whinging about candidate quality 340 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 1: or you know, one or two talking points. Who is 341 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 1: The New York Times going to write a bad article 342 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 1: about it is? I don't know, guys. Right now, they're 343 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 1: actually changing the way people get elected to assure that 344 00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:23,080 Speaker 1: you can never ever win again if they don't want 345 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 1: you to. But yeah, okay, let's go ahead and wonder 346 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:27,880 Speaker 1: if the New York Post or the you know, Washington 347 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:32,200 Speaker 1: Post is run thing something that you don't like on 348 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:38,439 Speaker 1: come back, super brother, Appreciate you, thank you, all right, 349 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 1: we'll be back. What I found when I looked into 350 00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:58,120 Speaker 1: how the RNC is spending donor money is that over 351 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:01,719 Speaker 1: three million dollars since twenty team were spent on private jets. 352 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 1: That's an addition to the commercial flights that probably the 353 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 1: lower rung staffers have to take to where they're going. 354 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 1: Seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars on floral arrangements. And 355 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:17,520 Speaker 1: these are not flowers for events or fundraisers. If you're 356 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 1: a staff or a senior staff or, you get to 357 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,080 Speaker 1: go to things like a Raiders game and a private 358 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:26,440 Speaker 1: box paid for by RNC donors, or a retreat at 359 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 1: the Salamander Resort and spat that's about a thousand dollars 360 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:32,399 Speaker 1: a night just for the room, forty three thousand dollars 361 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:36,159 Speaker 1: at top golf, thirteen thousand dollars for shows like a 362 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:40,159 Speaker 1: Lion King on Broadway. Insane amounts of spending and seventeen 363 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:46,159 Speaker 1: million dollars on donor mementos. Do love top golf? I 364 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:48,359 Speaker 1: wonder if Kira Love's top golf? Joining me now, my 365 00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:51,680 Speaker 1: friend Kira Davis, Editor at large, Red State. Kira, you're 366 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:53,679 Speaker 1: a woman, so you probably don't golf, at least I 367 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:55,280 Speaker 1: hope you don't. But have you been in top golf? 368 00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 1: I've not been in top golf, and no, I don't 369 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:04,120 Speaker 1: golf because the only thing that's more boring than golf 370 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 1: is women golfing. All right, all right, kiro the RNC. 371 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:14,880 Speaker 1: Should I care about it? I do care about it, 372 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:17,159 Speaker 1: but I can't decide whether or not I should. Does 373 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:19,920 Speaker 1: it matter? Explain to people why it matters. Yeah, yeah, 374 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 1: you should care about it. Because the RNC is tasked 375 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 1: with raising funds and winning elections. The RNC effectively is 376 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:31,439 Speaker 1: a leadership organization. It's supposed to set the tone for 377 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 1: elections across the country. It's supposed to set strategy both 378 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 1: federally and locally. It's supposed to send help to to 379 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:44,440 Speaker 1: local Republican groups to help them win elections. So, yeah, 380 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:48,639 Speaker 1: when we hear that the RNC is spending seven hundred 381 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 1: and fifty thousand dollars on floral arrangements. Yeah, you should 382 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:56,199 Speaker 1: be concerned about that, you know. I was. I was 383 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 1: talking to Jennifer Van Laugh, who broke the story, and 384 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,080 Speaker 1: she was saying, she was saying she spoke to a 385 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 1: woman recently who said, I work at a grocery store. 386 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,960 Speaker 1: I sent the RNC a few dollars because I was 387 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,679 Speaker 1: so concerned about what was happening in this country. And 388 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 1: don't we all get the RNC emails every week, practically 389 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 1: every day during the election season. Help us win this election, 390 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,120 Speaker 1: help us beat back the Democrats. And that's what she did. 391 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 1: So she works twelve hours a day, comes home feet 392 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:28,679 Speaker 1: aching backstor she's got to feed her family. She's sending 393 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,920 Speaker 1: her heart earned money thinking that they're spending her money 394 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:35,119 Speaker 1: on winning elections so that she can live a prosperous 395 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 1: and peaceful life in this country. She calls home and 396 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 1: what are they doing. They're going to places like top 397 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:45,640 Speaker 1: Golf and spending seventeen million dollars on mementos for donors 398 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:50,399 Speaker 1: who are donating to win. They don't want the Crystal Vaz. 399 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:56,640 Speaker 1: They want to win now. Mitch McConnell, the gop here, 400 00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:59,640 Speaker 1: that's not exactly secret what I feel about the low 401 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:02,960 Speaker 1: team up, but what I see when I see clips 402 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,159 Speaker 1: like this from Mitch McConnell, I find them to be 403 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 1: so disheartening because it looks like they're not even close 404 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 1: to caring about what we care about. Here's miss making 405 00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:17,920 Speaker 1: sure the Defense Department can deal with the major threats 406 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:25,880 Speaker 1: coming from Russia and China, providing assistance for the Ukrainians 407 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:30,399 Speaker 1: to defeat the Russians. That's the number one priority for 408 00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 1: the United States right now, according to most Republicans. That's 409 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:40,399 Speaker 1: sort of how we see the challenges confronting the country 410 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:45,879 Speaker 1: at the moment. Kira, have you talked to a single 411 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 1: Republican whose number one priority is Ukraine? Not a single one. 412 00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:53,120 Speaker 1: In fact, I've only talked to Republicans who have said 413 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 1: that should be our last priority. Now I've talked to 414 00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 1: plenty of Democrats who think Ukraine should be our number 415 00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:02,679 Speaker 1: one priority for whatever odd reasons. But yeah, this is 416 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 1: just another sign of the complete disconnect between the Republican 417 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 1: Party and the voting base that I even saw it 418 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:12,879 Speaker 1: when I was running for school board here Jesse in 419 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 1: southern California. As you know, I lost that race, but 420 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,359 Speaker 1: one of the issues that I and other candidates in 421 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 1: my area had as the state and county GOLP really 422 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:26,400 Speaker 1: just not understanding the temperature of the electorate right now. 423 00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 1: So part of our problem, besides whatever shenanigans might be 424 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 1: going on the Democrat side and with elections, part of 425 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:38,160 Speaker 1: the problem too is that I'm sorry, the Republican voter 426 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:41,400 Speaker 1: base is getting less and less motivated every day, and 427 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:45,400 Speaker 1: that is because leadership is stuck in nineteen ninety two 428 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:47,879 Speaker 1: and I don't know if I don't have to remind 429 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 1: you that we are coming up on twenty twenty three. 430 00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 1: It is a completely different landscape, even from three years ago. 431 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 1: So to even rid ourselves of a lifer like Ron McDaniels, 432 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:03,120 Speaker 1: who is just in the system forever, even to do 433 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:06,120 Speaker 1: that sends some kind of message. Now it's like they're 434 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:09,399 Speaker 1: not hearing us, and I'm not sure what can be 435 00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 1: done to make them hear us except for some important 436 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:15,400 Speaker 1: people to lose their jobs. Doesn't look like Minch McConnell 437 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:17,600 Speaker 1: is going to lose his job anytime soon unless he 438 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 1: drops dead. But there is a chance for Ron mc 439 00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:25,440 Speaker 1: daniel to be made an example of. Yeah, why would 440 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 1: they hear Uskira, And honestly, this is something I've been 441 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 1: expressed in the past couple of days. Why would these 442 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 1: losers like Mitch McConnell ever change their ways when every 443 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:36,119 Speaker 1: single time there was a Republican primary and Mitch McConnell 444 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 1: is going to get seventy plus percent of the primary 445 00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:41,440 Speaker 1: vote in his state, my own state, Texas weapons grade 446 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:43,879 Speaker 1: loser John Cornyan as a senator here's been a senator 447 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,160 Speaker 1: for twenty years, been a loser for twenty years, over 448 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:48,800 Speaker 1: seventy percent of the vote, over and over and over 449 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,679 Speaker 1: and over again. These Republican primary voters go out and 450 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:56,680 Speaker 1: vote these losers back in. Of course they're not worried. Yeah, 451 00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:58,840 Speaker 1: they're also not worried because they're all protected by the 452 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:02,200 Speaker 1: DC bubble, you know, the Beltway bubbles. So there there. 453 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 1: Once you get inside the Beltway, you know this just 454 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 1: as well as id Jesse. Once you get inside the Beltway, 455 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:10,639 Speaker 1: those people are all the same Democrats Republicans. They are 456 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:12,840 Speaker 1: all working together, they're married to each other, their kids 457 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,800 Speaker 1: go to school together, they go to the same cocktail parties. 458 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:19,439 Speaker 1: We really aren't looking at Republicans versus Democrats are left 459 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:22,800 Speaker 1: versus right right now, at this moment in history, we're 460 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:26,439 Speaker 1: looking at voters versus the political class. I don't know 461 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 1: what the answer is to get voters to wake up 462 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:32,159 Speaker 1: or pay attention. Sure, Mitch McConnell's going to win that 463 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:34,960 Speaker 1: race by set, you know, with the seventy percent margin, 464 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:38,360 Speaker 1: But also, what's the voter turnout for primaries. I mean, 465 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:42,199 Speaker 1: here in California, the primary race has got eighteen percent 466 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 1: of the voter voter base. So again going back to 467 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:51,119 Speaker 1: circling back to Rona McDaniel. You know, this is a 468 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 1: leadership problem as well, and that's what has to change. 469 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 1: So maybe we can't change leadership at the election level, 470 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,119 Speaker 1: but there seems to be a lot of buzz to 471 00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 1: get the RNC leadership changed. It's a small stliver of hope, 472 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:09,440 Speaker 1: I realize, but it's one I'm clinging to because once 473 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:13,040 Speaker 1: you have that leadership change, then you have somebody, hopefully 474 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 1: who is going to be willing to go out there 475 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:17,880 Speaker 1: and do the work of motivating the base to get 476 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 1: out there. No one, no Republican candidate, should be satisfied 477 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:27,119 Speaker 1: with an eighteen percent primary turnout in their state. It's pathetic, 478 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:29,480 Speaker 1: and the fact that it keeps happening says that the 479 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:33,640 Speaker 1: GOP is not doing their job. That's true, that's true, 480 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:36,400 Speaker 1: and it shows how complacent we are too. I don't 481 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 1: like the Republicans. I don't like the Republicans. Oh no, 482 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 1: I don't vote in primaries. What are we doing out there? 483 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 1: All right? Something else that drives to be crazy, Like 484 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 1: I love that you ran for school board. I tell 485 00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:48,000 Speaker 1: people run for school board all the time. The most 486 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 1: blessed thing that happens to me is people who email me, Jesse, 487 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 1: I did what you said and ran and I won 488 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 1: and I won. You ran, you lost five, run twice 489 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 1: and lost. It hurts. You pour your blood, sweat and 490 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:02,120 Speaker 1: tears into it and you lose. There's no question about it. 491 00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 1: It hurts. So I can personally testify to that. But 492 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 1: it's still something good to get in the fight. Would 493 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:10,800 Speaker 1: you tell people to get in the fight? Absolutely? As 494 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 1: a matter of fact, I hope you have to be 495 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,640 Speaker 1: back on your show to talk about my new book, 496 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 1: which is launching on January twenty fifth. It's called Drawing Lines, 497 00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 1: and in that book, I describe why it is really 498 00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 1: important for conservatives to figure out where your line is, 499 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:26,560 Speaker 1: draw it and then get in that battle. Pick a lane, 500 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 1: get in it, and stay there. We really don't have 501 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 1: any more ground to concede. And I know there's a 502 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,160 Speaker 1: lot of people out there looking at us, Jesse, going 503 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:36,280 Speaker 1: why I don't have time to run for office. I mean, 504 00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 1: what a monumental task, and it is. We can both 505 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 1: speak to the fact that you sacrifice a lot of 506 00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:45,400 Speaker 1: your life and your family's lives to do this, but 507 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 1: you don't have to only do that. And that's the 508 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 1: thing that I want Americans to understand, specifically conservative Americans. 509 00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:55,320 Speaker 1: We have this idea that I'm not doing something big, 510 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 1: I'm not contributing, But there's something you can do wherever 511 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 1: you are. Just be the person. I ran to a 512 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:06,240 Speaker 1: grandma who goes into her grandkids school libraries and just 513 00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:08,680 Speaker 1: looks at the library books, see what's in there. If 514 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:12,120 Speaker 1: anything flags her attention, she'll bring that up at the 515 00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 1: school board meeting. I talked to a school librarian this 516 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:21,120 Speaker 1: weekend who can't get rid of these strange, sexually explicit 517 00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:24,040 Speaker 1: books at her school library. But what she can do 518 00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 1: is she can add to the library, and so she 519 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,239 Speaker 1: brings in conservative books to the library and then she 520 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 1: hosts a discussion group with the students. You know, there's 521 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:35,280 Speaker 1: something you can do anywhere. You can knock on doors 522 00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 1: for a candidate. You can start a blog for your 523 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: local city council. Show up to one meeting a year 524 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 1: and just type type, type and watch how they freak 525 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:46,800 Speaker 1: out because someone's watching them. For once. You know they 526 00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 1: are all Get on a committee. You know a lot 527 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,520 Speaker 1: of people don't understand that their city councils have all 528 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,840 Speaker 1: kinds of committees that run all kinds of things, and 529 00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 1: these are not elected positions. You can get appointed to 530 00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 1: these committees, and a lot of them have a process 531 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:03,640 Speaker 1: for citizens to apply to be on the committees. They 532 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:06,840 Speaker 1: just depend on us not being curious about the process 533 00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 1: or knowing. Get on a committee, Get on a redistricting committee. 534 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:14,160 Speaker 1: You're allowed to do that. There are so many places 535 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:18,480 Speaker 1: America that you can stand up and stand still if 536 00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 1: you look, but don't depend on other people to do it. 537 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 1: There's no cavalry coming. You are the cavalry. So there's 538 00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:29,959 Speaker 1: no more one person to do it. There's no Superman, 539 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:33,960 Speaker 1: there's no super Trump. You know, there's no one person 540 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:36,920 Speaker 1: that's gonna fix us. It's up to you. So you 541 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 1: can decide if you're just gonna let the left run 542 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 1: rough shot over America and just throw up your hands 543 00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:44,280 Speaker 1: and go, well, we gave it a good shot. I 544 00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:47,720 Speaker 1: guess it's just we'll just take whatever scraps we can get, 545 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 1: or you can fight. I don't know how to quit. 546 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 1: I wish I did. It seems like it would be easier. 547 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,200 Speaker 1: I don't know how to quit America. You don't have 548 00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:59,719 Speaker 1: to quit either. Pick something, Stand there and tell people 549 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 1: I'm standing here. You're not going to push me any farther. 550 00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:06,120 Speaker 1: There's no more yardage behind us to give. Like we 551 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 1: are at the absolute edge of the cliff here here, 552 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:14,240 Speaker 1: Davis say, man, thank you, you appreciate you. All right, 553 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:34,560 Speaker 1: Scott Pressler joins us. Hey everybody, this is Scott Pressler. 554 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:38,960 Speaker 1: There's a reason why you haven't seen much of me, 555 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 1: and it's because for the last month and a half 556 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:47,360 Speaker 1: I've been pretty much bad bound and I almost lost 557 00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 1: the ability to use my legs. I have a blood 558 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 1: disease that triggered my anemia and my weight got dangerously low. 559 00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 1: The good news is I have a grow doctor who's 560 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:05,960 Speaker 1: taking care of me and I will recover from this. 561 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:11,440 Speaker 1: Joining me now Grassroots Organizer for the Republican Party. Well, 562 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 1: let's hope this guy sticks around for a long time. 563 00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:18,360 Speaker 1: Scott Pressler, Scott, first and foremost, you're feeling better, right 564 00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:20,480 Speaker 1: because you're kind of like the most important person in 565 00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:24,040 Speaker 1: the right wing movement at this point in time. Well, 566 00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:26,080 Speaker 1: thank you. I know it was killing me not being 567 00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:28,720 Speaker 1: able to get out the vote before election day. But 568 00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:33,000 Speaker 1: to the Democrats surprise, I'm feeling better and I'm ready 569 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:37,840 Speaker 1: to rock and roll. So let's go. All right, Scott, 570 00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:41,800 Speaker 1: you're actually on the ground knocking on doors, recruiting people, 571 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:45,680 Speaker 1: registering new voters. I know this is old news now, 572 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:48,479 Speaker 1: but the midterms, well they went okay, they didn't go 573 00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:50,760 Speaker 1: the way we all wanted. We didn't get our red wave. 574 00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:55,239 Speaker 1: I want your opinion, why, Well, you know this may 575 00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:59,840 Speaker 1: be an unpopular opinion, but I'm going to speak pointedly. 576 00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:05,280 Speaker 1: I think that unless we change our voting habits as conservatives, 577 00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:09,239 Speaker 1: as Republicans, we're going to continue to lose elections. And 578 00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:14,200 Speaker 1: we can't afford any longer to wait to vote on 579 00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:18,080 Speaker 1: one day election day. We saw that in Arizona, we 580 00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:23,320 Speaker 1: saw that in Harris County, Texas tabulation errors machine airs. 581 00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:27,520 Speaker 1: They ran out of paper ballots, and all the while 582 00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:32,720 Speaker 1: Democrats are either mail in voting, early in person voting, 583 00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:36,440 Speaker 1: or ballot harvesting. So while the majority of Republicans are 584 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 1: waiting to vote on one single day, the Democrats are 585 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:44,799 Speaker 1: locking in millions of votes leading into election day. And 586 00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:47,880 Speaker 1: so I become a major proponent. Yes, we're going to 587 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:51,880 Speaker 1: vote on election day, but we must also early in person, 588 00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:55,680 Speaker 1: absentee ballot, and where it's legal, we're going to do 589 00:34:55,800 --> 00:35:01,719 Speaker 1: ballot harvesting of our own. Okay, Now, if pretend I'm dumb, 590 00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:04,720 Speaker 1: that should be difficult for you. Why does that matter? 591 00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:07,320 Speaker 1: Because you're right, it does. But I want you to 592 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:09,479 Speaker 1: explain for people why does it matter? Hey, I vote 593 00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:12,239 Speaker 1: an election day, Hugh votes early. What's a big deal. 594 00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:14,399 Speaker 1: It's just one vote for one vote? Who cares? Why 595 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:18,280 Speaker 1: does it matter? Well, it's actually a variety of reasons. 596 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:23,400 Speaker 1: One of them is psychological in part, you know, because 597 00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:27,440 Speaker 1: I remember in twenty sixteen, the Democrats were saying Hillary 598 00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:32,319 Speaker 1: Clinton has banked such an enormous early vote lead that 599 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:35,439 Speaker 1: it will be nearly impossible for Donald Trump to win 600 00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:39,160 Speaker 1: in twenty sixteen, and they were trying to use that 601 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:44,160 Speaker 1: information to suppress the vote, and unfortunately, some pipe people. 602 00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:50,120 Speaker 1: They buy into polls, they buy into that propaganda coming 603 00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:53,160 Speaker 1: from the media. And we saw going into the twenty 604 00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:57,400 Speaker 1: twenty two election how that early voting advantage actually worked 605 00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:01,120 Speaker 1: in our favor, how the Democrats were reporting, Oh my gosh, 606 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:06,640 Speaker 1: for the first time, Republicans in Florida are actually leading 607 00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 1: in mail and voting in early voting, leading in Miami Date, 608 00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:14,200 Speaker 1: one of the bluest of blue counties in the state. 609 00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:17,520 Speaker 1: And also think about this for a second. So I 610 00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:21,080 Speaker 1: already talked about how the Democrats are banking votes absentee 611 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:24,520 Speaker 1: early voting, mail and voting. That means that there are 612 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:29,360 Speaker 1: fewer people and fewer resources that have to be dedicated 613 00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:33,000 Speaker 1: by the Democrats in order to contact people who have 614 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:36,080 Speaker 1: yet to vote. Now, if we use Republicans so we 615 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:40,920 Speaker 1: wait until one day, that means that we're having to 616 00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:46,680 Speaker 1: allocate more resources, more time to contact people who may 617 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:49,440 Speaker 1: already have a plan to vote, as opposed to the 618 00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:53,000 Speaker 1: low propensity voter or the voter who may not want 619 00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:55,719 Speaker 1: to show up and needs that extra knock on their door. 620 00:36:56,360 --> 00:37:00,959 Speaker 1: So the Democrats are at a huge advantage by participating 621 00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:04,879 Speaker 1: at early voting, and unless Republicans do so, than We're 622 00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:07,640 Speaker 1: going to continue to have to fight an uphill battle 623 00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:12,480 Speaker 1: every single election. All right, So you mentioned ballot harvesting. 624 00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:16,319 Speaker 1: Legal ballot harvesting, is this is something that obviously we 625 00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:20,160 Speaker 1: do after embrace. What does the normal person do? How 626 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:23,879 Speaker 1: does the normal person get involved? Watching me right now? Yeah, 627 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:25,600 Speaker 1: I want to do this too. I want to help. 628 00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:27,920 Speaker 1: I want to help get a normal person help, or 629 00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:31,759 Speaker 1: it's it's just for Washington, DC elite people. No, this 630 00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:37,440 Speaker 1: is for everybody. And you know, I'm demistifying the process 631 00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:40,000 Speaker 1: because everybody hears ballot harvesting and I know it has 632 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 1: a negative connotation, but that's only in part because the 633 00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:48,360 Speaker 1: Democrats have been the one utilizing that tool to their advantage. 634 00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:51,719 Speaker 1: And so I'm currently in the process right now of 635 00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:57,200 Speaker 1: creating a ballot harvesting manual that is going to reflect 636 00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:01,840 Speaker 1: all of the rules, statutes, and regulations for all fifty states. 637 00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:05,120 Speaker 1: I'm not only doing research on the laws, but I'm 638 00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:09,399 Speaker 1: even doing the due diligence of calling county clerk offices 639 00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:12,280 Speaker 1: to make sure that I'm crossing my ts and dotting 640 00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:15,439 Speaker 1: my eyes. And it's quite frankly, Jesse, it's been eye 641 00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:18,799 Speaker 1: opening that I just found out in this state of Colorado, 642 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:22,760 Speaker 1: for example, any person you don't have to be a voter, 643 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:26,560 Speaker 1: you don't even have to be a citizen. Any person 644 00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:30,600 Speaker 1: can deliver up to ten mail in ballots in the 645 00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:34,320 Speaker 1: state of Colorado. And that's even including me. As a Virginian, 646 00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:37,560 Speaker 1: I can ballot harvest legally in the state of Colorado. 647 00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:43,200 Speaker 1: And so opening this process up to the electorate two 648 00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:47,360 Speaker 1: average citizens is going to exponentially help Republicans if we 649 00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:50,200 Speaker 1: utilize it going into the twenty twenty three and twenty 650 00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:56,360 Speaker 1: twenty four elections. Scott, Okay, so normal people can get involved. 651 00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:58,719 Speaker 1: I'm not worried about you, obviously, and I'm actually not 652 00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:02,120 Speaker 1: worried about normal people. I know they want good things, 653 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:05,200 Speaker 1: But I am worried about our useless GOP leadership. I 654 00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:08,640 Speaker 1: really genuinely am Scott. They're all right back there. They're 655 00:39:08,680 --> 00:39:11,960 Speaker 1: all a bunch of nutlass losers. They don't accomplish anything 656 00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 1: except lining their own pockets, and I'm worried they're going 657 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:19,080 Speaker 1: to keep getting in our way and holding us back. Well, 658 00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:22,880 Speaker 1: they're gonna try, Jesse, and that's why I'm leading the 659 00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:28,359 Speaker 1: charge with respectfully and politely that I think it's time 660 00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:31,000 Speaker 1: for change. Within our Republican Party and we need a 661 00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:34,040 Speaker 1: change of leadership. With all due respect to Chairwoman Rona 662 00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:37,839 Speaker 1: McDaniel of the RNC, the Republican National Committee, I am 663 00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:42,520 Speaker 1: firmly supporting and endorsing Harmy Dylan to become our next 664 00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:45,880 Speaker 1: chairwoman of the RNC. The vote is going to happen 665 00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:50,040 Speaker 1: on January twenty seventh, And if any of you listening 666 00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:54,319 Speaker 1: watching one new leadership within our party, then it is 667 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:58,680 Speaker 1: incumbent and demanded upon you that you make your voice 668 00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:02,240 Speaker 1: is heard and can do so by going to hire 669 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:07,560 Speaker 1: par meet dot com. That's h I R E h 670 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:12,000 Speaker 1: A R m eet dot com. And what you're going 671 00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:14,840 Speaker 1: to have is the list of all fifty states including 672 00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:18,759 Speaker 1: US territories where you have three voting R and C 673 00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:21,200 Speaker 1: members that you are going to be able to email. 674 00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:25,480 Speaker 1: If you love Chairwoman McDaniel, that's fine. Make your voice heard. 675 00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:29,200 Speaker 1: If you want change of party leadership within the Republican Party, 676 00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:33,560 Speaker 1: then make your voice heard. Because these elected officials need 677 00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:36,600 Speaker 1: to be reminded that they represent us, they don't represent 678 00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:42,160 Speaker 1: these elitist donors. They should actually be trying to court 679 00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:45,600 Speaker 1: us as donors within the Republican Party. And I do 680 00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:48,880 Speaker 1: just have to say one thing. You know, I saw 681 00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:52,799 Speaker 1: the RNC spending report where they were spending money on 682 00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:59,759 Speaker 1: clothing and luxury travel in private jets, and I don't 683 00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:02,320 Speaker 1: want to pat myself on the back, That's not my intention. 684 00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:05,560 Speaker 1: But while they're spending their money that way, here you 685 00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:09,400 Speaker 1: have activists like meatrassroots on the ground that I'm driving 686 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:12,800 Speaker 1: in a two thousand and five hotness civic with power 687 00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:16,239 Speaker 1: Aids and granola in the back of my car going 688 00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:19,960 Speaker 1: down to Georgia to knock condors for herschel Walker. That's 689 00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:22,440 Speaker 1: the kind of activism that we need within the Republican 690 00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:25,319 Speaker 1: Party where we don't appeal to the top, but we 691 00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:28,640 Speaker 1: appeal to the grassroots, to the base, and we can 692 00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:31,680 Speaker 1: do that by helping to elect Harmy Villain is the 693 00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:36,399 Speaker 1: next R and C chair, Scott. One last thing voter 694 00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 1: registration that has been your bread and butter. You've been 695 00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:43,640 Speaker 1: kicking but at it. How's have been going. It's going great, 696 00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:48,080 Speaker 1: even continued to this day. Despite the fact that we 697 00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:51,120 Speaker 1: were not as successful as we hoped for in the 698 00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:55,400 Speaker 1: twenty twenty two mid terms, we're seeing continued increase in 699 00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:59,880 Speaker 1: voter registration for Republicans in North Carolina. I'm going to 700 00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:02,200 Speaker 1: look at the details that are coming out today for 701 00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:06,520 Speaker 1: the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, where we continue to narrow the 702 00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:10,880 Speaker 1: Democratic advantage in that commonwealth. But I do want to 703 00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:14,799 Speaker 1: open up conversation very briefly to what my plans are 704 00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:18,839 Speaker 1: for twenty twenty three because we have important statewide elections. 705 00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:22,279 Speaker 1: My folk guy are going to be on winning the 706 00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:26,360 Speaker 1: governorship in Louisiana, flipping that from Bluda Red, winning the 707 00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:30,080 Speaker 1: governorship in Kentucky flipping that governorship from Bluda Red. And 708 00:42:30,120 --> 00:42:35,600 Speaker 1: we also have state legislative races in Jersey and Virginia. 709 00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:40,160 Speaker 1: Unless this is of the utmost importance that in Pennsylvania 710 00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:46,240 Speaker 1: and Wisconsin, we have two critical Supreme Court state seats 711 00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:49,040 Speaker 1: that are going to be up. In Wisconsin, we have 712 00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:53,719 Speaker 1: to hold the seat in order to keep our conservative majority, 713 00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:57,759 Speaker 1: and in Pennsylvania we have the opportunity to flip a 714 00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:01,719 Speaker 1: seat which would only give Democrats a narrow majority of 715 00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:04,960 Speaker 1: four to three. And those are going to be important 716 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:07,400 Speaker 1: seats that we need in order to go into twenty 717 00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:09,360 Speaker 1: twenty four because we know that they're going to be 718 00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:14,880 Speaker 1: legal battles. Scott Pressler, go get them, my man, appreciation. 719 00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:34,200 Speaker 1: Thanks Jesse. All right, we got final thoughts. Next, we 720 00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:37,759 Speaker 1: must rebuild. Yes, the party sucks, no collection about that, 721 00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:40,040 Speaker 1: But all that means is we have lots of room 722 00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:43,920 Speaker 1: for improvement. Let's hope many many GOP House members and 723 00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:46,920 Speaker 1: Senate members we're watching tonight and we could begin somewhere. 724 00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:50,279 Speaker 1: Let's start pushing them that way. Huh, all right, we'll 725 00:43:50,320 --> 00:44:01,280 Speaker 1: do it again. Each morning, the President of the United 726 00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:04,520 Speaker 1: States receives a highly classified briefing on the most important 727 00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:07,800 Speaker 1: issues facing the country. It's called the President's Daily Brief 728 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:11,920 Speaker 1: or PDB. It's delivered by America's spies and analysts. Well, 729 00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:14,719 Speaker 1: now you can hear your very own PDB in the 730 00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:17,719 Speaker 1: form of a podcast hosted by me Brian Dean Wright, 731 00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:21,960 Speaker 1: a former CIA operations officer. Each morning at six am Eastern, 732 00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:24,120 Speaker 1: I'll bring you fifteen to twenty minutes of the most 733 00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 1: important issues facing the country, giving you the critical intelligence 734 00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:30,600 Speaker 1: and analysis you need to start your morning.
