WEBVTT - The Constitution Is on the Ballot

0:00:00.000 --> 0:00:02.680
<v Speaker 1>And thanks to all of you for being with us.

0:00:02.759 --> 0:00:06.120
<v Speaker 1>Right down our toll free telephone number. It is eight

0:00:06.200 --> 0:00:09.000
<v Speaker 1>hundred and ninety four one Sean, if you want to

0:00:09.000 --> 0:00:13.080
<v Speaker 1>be a part of the program. Let's imagine in our

0:00:13.160 --> 0:00:17.360
<v Speaker 1>mind's eye for just a moment, it's the morning after

0:00:18.239 --> 0:00:24.480
<v Speaker 1>the midterm election. Let's say Democrats get control of I know,

0:00:25.720 --> 0:00:28.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm giving people heart attacks. They're driving their car right now, Linda,

0:00:29.280 --> 0:00:31.640
<v Speaker 1>and they're about to have a heart attack. They get

0:00:31.680 --> 0:00:35.000
<v Speaker 1>control of the House, they get control of the Senate,

0:00:36.040 --> 0:00:40.280
<v Speaker 1>and the DSA, which controls the Democratic Party, is now

0:00:40.440 --> 0:00:46.240
<v Speaker 1>in charge. On the DSA website, you know, praise Fidel Castro.

0:00:46.440 --> 0:00:48.040
<v Speaker 1>You know, it was this one hundredth birthday. That's why

0:00:48.040 --> 0:00:52.640
<v Speaker 1>they were praising them. A thug, a dictator, a murderer.

0:00:53.120 --> 0:00:56.240
<v Speaker 1>I mean, the idea that these people on the left

0:00:56.320 --> 0:01:00.840
<v Speaker 1>is this DSA mindset actually thinks that Ostro was a

0:01:00.880 --> 0:01:01.360
<v Speaker 1>good guy.

0:01:01.480 --> 0:01:02.600
<v Speaker 2>Is like, what is.

0:01:02.560 --> 0:01:06.240
<v Speaker 1>Wrong with your thinking? Have you ever seen images out

0:01:06.319 --> 0:01:09.160
<v Speaker 1>of Cuba? Later in this program today we're going to

0:01:09.160 --> 0:01:13.080
<v Speaker 1>talk to people. One guy that grew up in Venezuela

0:01:13.160 --> 0:01:15.480
<v Speaker 1>and how did that work out for the people there?

0:01:15.520 --> 0:01:17.479
<v Speaker 1>They should be one of the richest countries in the world.

0:01:18.120 --> 0:01:23.759
<v Speaker 1>Venezuela has oil reserve reserves that are like second to none.

0:01:24.000 --> 0:01:25.640
<v Speaker 1>They have more than we do in terms of oil,

0:01:25.800 --> 0:01:28.520
<v Speaker 1>in terms of energy, oil gas, COLT. We are the

0:01:28.600 --> 0:01:32.520
<v Speaker 1>number one producer now in the world by far. It's

0:01:32.520 --> 0:01:34.440
<v Speaker 1>not Saudi Arabia, it's not the Middle East.

0:01:34.520 --> 0:01:34.920
<v Speaker 2>We are.

0:01:36.440 --> 0:01:39.920
<v Speaker 1>And so the people now that are openly that are

0:01:39.920 --> 0:01:42.120
<v Speaker 1>elected members, there are two hundred and fifty of them,

0:01:42.680 --> 0:01:44.760
<v Speaker 1>and you know the one in New York saying that

0:01:44.760 --> 0:01:46.520
<v Speaker 1>it should be okay to steal. I think this is

0:01:46.560 --> 0:01:50.240
<v Speaker 1>worth playing again because this lady's such a lunatic and

0:01:50.720 --> 0:01:52.880
<v Speaker 1>the idea and we did a Man on the Street

0:01:52.960 --> 0:01:55.760
<v Speaker 1>last night with Brianna Lyman. Did you see that last night,

0:01:55.840 --> 0:01:58.960
<v Speaker 1>Linda when we were doing TV and all.

0:01:58.880 --> 0:02:01.160
<v Speaker 3>The people that I give her a lot of credit.

0:02:01.240 --> 0:02:02.680
<v Speaker 3>She's much nicer than I would be.

0:02:04.120 --> 0:02:06.440
<v Speaker 1>How would you be if I maybe maybe one day

0:02:06.440 --> 0:02:07.480
<v Speaker 1>we should let you do it?

0:02:08.320 --> 0:02:08.480
<v Speaker 2>Oh?

0:02:08.600 --> 0:02:11.040
<v Speaker 1>No, The problem is I can't trust you to like

0:02:11.120 --> 0:02:12.639
<v Speaker 1>not drop four hundred that problems.

0:02:12.680 --> 0:02:14.560
<v Speaker 2>You can't even give up, you know the I don't

0:02:14.600 --> 0:02:14.960
<v Speaker 2>need to.

0:02:14.919 --> 0:02:18.120
<v Speaker 4>Drop you dumb't even understand that, forget about it.

0:02:18.120 --> 0:02:19.919
<v Speaker 2>I would just know they'll understand that word.

0:02:20.120 --> 0:02:20.880
<v Speaker 4>They don't know nothing.

0:02:21.480 --> 0:02:23.760
<v Speaker 2>No, they don't know nothing. They know nothing, they don't know,

0:02:23.960 --> 0:02:24.880
<v Speaker 2>they don't know nothing.

0:02:25.200 --> 0:02:27.440
<v Speaker 1>But the point is, if you know, I can hear

0:02:27.480 --> 0:02:29.200
<v Speaker 1>you saying you're you're a blanket moron.

0:02:29.240 --> 0:02:30.760
<v Speaker 2>You're gonna get a fight with these people.

0:02:31.600 --> 0:02:33.920
<v Speaker 4>I don't know, karate. If you're going to be fine,

0:02:34.000 --> 0:02:34.840
<v Speaker 4>you don't need to get you.

0:02:34.800 --> 0:02:37.240
<v Speaker 2>Don't know karate. You you know you have a burner.

0:02:37.400 --> 0:02:39.560
<v Speaker 2>That's that's I do have a burner.

0:02:39.800 --> 0:02:41.639
<v Speaker 4>It's my last resort, but I will use.

0:02:41.520 --> 0:02:42.639
<v Speaker 2>It all right.

0:02:42.720 --> 0:02:47.080
<v Speaker 1>But okay, in other words, you're creating a huge headache

0:02:47.120 --> 0:02:48.040
<v Speaker 1>and a problem for me.

0:02:48.760 --> 0:02:51.639
<v Speaker 4>I would never. I would never. I promise you I'm

0:02:51.639 --> 0:02:52.200
<v Speaker 4>a good TV.

0:02:52.400 --> 0:02:56.480
<v Speaker 1>No worries, problem, no worries, no worries at all. Them

0:02:56.560 --> 0:02:59.880
<v Speaker 1>on the street, the shoe on Hannity, for the Hannity s.

0:03:00.840 --> 0:03:03.480
<v Speaker 1>I want to know why you're a communist? You know

0:03:03.520 --> 0:03:03.919
<v Speaker 1>two weeks.

0:03:04.080 --> 0:03:05.840
<v Speaker 3>I want to know why your hair has eight colors

0:03:05.840 --> 0:03:07.160
<v Speaker 3>in it? How long did it take you to do that?

0:03:07.200 --> 0:03:08.240
<v Speaker 3>Do you spend all day doing that?

0:03:08.360 --> 0:03:09.120
<v Speaker 2>You have a mirror?

0:03:09.360 --> 0:03:11.840
<v Speaker 4>Is there a mirror in anywhere in proximity to your home?

0:03:12.600 --> 0:03:13.880
<v Speaker 2>So let's play the lady.

0:03:15.080 --> 0:03:17.880
<v Speaker 1>This is a DSA elected official again, two hundred and

0:03:17.919 --> 0:03:21.040
<v Speaker 1>fifty elected since twenty nineteen, forty plus on the ballot

0:03:21.040 --> 0:03:24.919
<v Speaker 1>this year. We're seventy seven days from election day, and

0:03:25.280 --> 0:03:29.720
<v Speaker 1>imagine you wake up and we find out, oh we

0:03:29.880 --> 0:03:34.040
<v Speaker 1>now the House of Representatives has gone back to control

0:03:34.200 --> 0:03:37.080
<v Speaker 1>with the Democrats. The Senate is in control of the Democrats.

0:03:37.760 --> 0:03:40.000
<v Speaker 1>What do you think is going to happen?

0:03:40.160 --> 0:03:40.360
<v Speaker 2>Then?

0:03:41.520 --> 0:03:44.280
<v Speaker 1>Do you think that they mean what they say what

0:03:44.320 --> 0:03:48.200
<v Speaker 1>they put on their website? Now we know that no

0:03:48.320 --> 0:03:53.800
<v Speaker 1>democrat elected Democrat wants to criticize the DSA, even though

0:03:53.800 --> 0:03:57.560
<v Speaker 1>they're written printed agenda on their website praises Castro.

0:03:57.880 --> 0:03:59.960
<v Speaker 2>But let's play this lady. Now it's okay to see.

0:04:00.920 --> 0:04:03.480
<v Speaker 5>Oh so, while we sell our crimes of poverty, people

0:04:03.480 --> 0:04:06.280
<v Speaker 5>who are stealing things like tooth based people who are

0:04:06.360 --> 0:04:10.280
<v Speaker 5>stealing things like, you know, a soap, and that means

0:04:10.280 --> 0:04:13.320
<v Speaker 5>if you're stealing those things, you need them. And we

0:04:13.600 --> 0:04:19.039
<v Speaker 5>are choosing to protect billion dollar companies like CBS and

0:04:19.080 --> 0:04:24.600
<v Speaker 5>Walgreens over the people who are struggling.

0:04:24.080 --> 0:04:24.680
<v Speaker 4>To get by.

0:04:24.880 --> 0:04:28.400
<v Speaker 6>So I would say that the true crime is that

0:04:28.480 --> 0:04:33.760
<v Speaker 6>there is such incredible wealth disparity in this city that

0:04:33.880 --> 0:04:37.200
<v Speaker 6>there are people who can be thrown in jail simply

0:04:37.320 --> 0:04:39.120
<v Speaker 6>for having a biological need.

0:04:41.320 --> 0:04:45.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm so she's justifying stealing and wants to make stealing legal.

0:04:46.520 --> 0:04:50.200
<v Speaker 1>Add that to eliminate the US Senate. Add that to

0:04:50.520 --> 0:04:53.520
<v Speaker 1>you no longer choose your president. Add that to packing

0:04:53.560 --> 0:04:58.200
<v Speaker 1>the courts. Add that to amnesty for illegals and abolishing

0:04:58.240 --> 0:05:03.240
<v Speaker 1>our borders, abolishing eyes, ending all deportation. Add that to

0:05:03.400 --> 0:05:10.120
<v Speaker 1>defunding a world where China, Russia, North Korea, Iran. We're

0:05:10.160 --> 0:05:12.640
<v Speaker 1>going to defund the Department award that is on their

0:05:12.680 --> 0:05:19.000
<v Speaker 1>written website. Eliminate cash bell it's written down. Abolished prisons,

0:05:19.040 --> 0:05:25.000
<v Speaker 1>abolish police, establish their wealth tax, and pass the Green

0:05:25.080 --> 0:05:28.040
<v Speaker 1>New Deal. Public ownership of most corporations, and now they

0:05:28.160 --> 0:05:32.360
<v Speaker 1>are in charge. What do you think happens to the country.

0:05:33.440 --> 0:05:34.200
<v Speaker 4>So I have a question.

0:05:35.640 --> 0:05:41.080
<v Speaker 2>Just yes, you and the in the bank y and

0:05:41.120 --> 0:05:43.919
<v Speaker 2>the peanutgut, All right, go ahead, cue radio. What do

0:05:44.000 --> 0:05:44.560
<v Speaker 2>I expect?

0:05:44.560 --> 0:05:46.680
<v Speaker 4>What I think you like it? I think you enjoy this.

0:05:46.760 --> 0:05:48.760
<v Speaker 4>You know it's spontaneous. You weren't sure it was going

0:05:48.800 --> 0:05:50.039
<v Speaker 4>to happen here.

0:05:50.040 --> 0:05:54.560
<v Speaker 3>I am so I'm curious when someone like that is speaking,

0:05:55.480 --> 0:05:57.520
<v Speaker 3>all of these people are standing there filming her I

0:05:57.520 --> 0:06:00.599
<v Speaker 3>can't imagine every single person's day ending in there is

0:06:00.600 --> 0:06:03.000
<v Speaker 3>thinking like, yeah, I agree with this. So I would

0:06:03.040 --> 0:06:06.320
<v Speaker 3>like to say, okay, so this person committed this crime

0:06:06.400 --> 0:06:08.760
<v Speaker 3>of necessity. It's a new category of crime. By the way,

0:06:08.760 --> 0:06:11.279
<v Speaker 3>I've never heard of it before. But okay, crime of necessity,

0:06:11.320 --> 0:06:14.960
<v Speaker 3>that's fun. Who determines the necessity? Right, it's all the

0:06:15.200 --> 0:06:18.080
<v Speaker 3>what is is? And so now they're saying, well, it's toothpaste,

0:06:18.080 --> 0:06:20.159
<v Speaker 3>it's soap. Okay, Well where does it end? When is

0:06:20.200 --> 0:06:22.880
<v Speaker 3>the crime of necessity? Who determines what's included in the

0:06:22.920 --> 0:06:26.000
<v Speaker 3>necessity crime box? And then if we go to the

0:06:26.000 --> 0:06:31.320
<v Speaker 3>person's house and we do child, oh, exactly, my child

0:06:31.360 --> 0:06:31.839
<v Speaker 3>needs a call.

0:06:32.640 --> 0:06:34.040
<v Speaker 4>I needed AirPods.

0:06:34.080 --> 0:06:37.880
<v Speaker 2>It's a crime in the same need I need new clothes.

0:06:38.560 --> 0:06:42.080
<v Speaker 3>I don't like one hundred percent. This is why it

0:06:42.120 --> 0:06:44.560
<v Speaker 3>doesn't make sense not to mention the fact. And you

0:06:44.600 --> 0:06:46.560
<v Speaker 3>have said this many times and it remains true to

0:06:46.600 --> 0:06:50.440
<v Speaker 3>this moment. There is nowhere I go anywhere in this

0:06:50.480 --> 0:06:54.400
<v Speaker 3>country where there are not help wanted signs. There's no

0:06:54.440 --> 0:06:57.440
<v Speaker 3>reason why you can't unless you don't want to. Everywhere,

0:06:57.480 --> 0:06:58.240
<v Speaker 3>they're everywhere.

0:06:59.240 --> 0:07:04.280
<v Speaker 1>Well, what was sad? And there's this hatred for big corporations.

0:07:04.480 --> 0:07:07.599
<v Speaker 1>Like one guy said, well, it depends if it's a

0:07:08.000 --> 0:07:10.880
<v Speaker 1>if it's a locally owned store, mom and pop shop,

0:07:11.120 --> 0:07:12.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, I wouldn't want that to happen there.

0:07:12.880 --> 0:07:14.400
<v Speaker 2>But if it's Walmart, no problem.

0:07:14.680 --> 0:07:18.000
<v Speaker 1>Ceev have no problem, you know as if well, first

0:07:18.000 --> 0:07:20.280
<v Speaker 1>of all, what do you think the consequences of this are?

0:07:20.880 --> 0:07:23.360
<v Speaker 1>You know, the first consequence probably is they're going to

0:07:23.520 --> 0:07:27.120
<v Speaker 1>have to lock everything up. We have enough stuff locked up,

0:07:27.680 --> 0:07:30.000
<v Speaker 1>especially in New York. I mean, it was getting bad,

0:07:30.000 --> 0:07:31.720
<v Speaker 1>and I've been told by my friends it has only

0:07:31.720 --> 0:07:35.520
<v Speaker 1>gotten worse since I left years ago, where everything's locked

0:07:35.560 --> 0:07:39.160
<v Speaker 1>up when you go shopping, and that's horrible because that means,

0:07:39.200 --> 0:07:41.200
<v Speaker 1>oh I want to get I want to get a razor.

0:07:41.640 --> 0:07:43.760
<v Speaker 1>Oh okay, well it's locked up, and then you got

0:07:43.760 --> 0:07:47.320
<v Speaker 1>to find an employee, which is difficult usually in and

0:07:47.360 --> 0:07:48.920
<v Speaker 1>of itself, and then they have to come over and

0:07:48.920 --> 0:07:50.160
<v Speaker 1>they have to have the key and they have to

0:07:50.240 --> 0:07:52.760
<v Speaker 1>unlock it, you know, just so you can buy something

0:07:52.840 --> 0:07:54.440
<v Speaker 1>to prevent all the people from stealing.

0:07:54.800 --> 0:07:57.119
<v Speaker 2>I've had conversations.

0:07:56.880 --> 0:07:59.920
<v Speaker 1>With the people, like when I go to a store,

0:08:00.320 --> 0:08:02.520
<v Speaker 1>even in Florida, there are some places that if I

0:08:02.560 --> 0:08:05.120
<v Speaker 1>go shopping stuff is locked up, which is a pain

0:08:05.200 --> 0:08:08.360
<v Speaker 1>of my you know what, And I'll say to the person, well,

0:08:08.360 --> 0:08:10.200
<v Speaker 1>why do you lock this up? I said that people

0:08:10.280 --> 0:08:12.280
<v Speaker 1>really just walk out with it all the and they're

0:08:12.320 --> 0:08:15.200
<v Speaker 1>like all the time. One guy said to me, I

0:08:15.240 --> 0:08:17.800
<v Speaker 1>wish I could stop them. They won't let me. They

0:08:17.800 --> 0:08:21.360
<v Speaker 1>won't let me confront them. Then not allowed to say word.

0:08:21.360 --> 0:08:25.120
<v Speaker 1>They don't even have security people there. And what is

0:08:25.160 --> 0:08:28.400
<v Speaker 1>the natural consequence of this. The natural consequence of this

0:08:29.160 --> 0:08:32.640
<v Speaker 1>is either these companies go out of business so you

0:08:32.679 --> 0:08:36.600
<v Speaker 1>don't have the convenience of shopping there anymore, or they

0:08:36.679 --> 0:08:40.640
<v Speaker 1>raise their prices, which means that people that actually believe

0:08:40.679 --> 0:08:45.559
<v Speaker 1>in thou shalt not steal, whether they're poor, middle class,

0:08:46.160 --> 0:08:49.559
<v Speaker 1>or wealthy, would never think of stealing something that's not theirs.

0:08:49.920 --> 0:08:52.880
<v Speaker 1>They're going to end up paying higher prices because the

0:08:52.960 --> 0:08:55.440
<v Speaker 1>cost of theft is going to be passed on to

0:08:55.520 --> 0:08:58.320
<v Speaker 1>the consumer, and that means we're all going to pay

0:08:58.360 --> 0:09:02.760
<v Speaker 1>more for everything. This is how bad this gets, you know.

0:09:02.840 --> 0:09:05.040
<v Speaker 1>I'll give you an example. So we sent Brianna Lineman

0:09:05.160 --> 0:09:07.119
<v Speaker 1>with the Federalist out on the streets.

0:09:07.679 --> 0:09:08.760
<v Speaker 2>Now, granted this.

0:09:08.640 --> 0:09:11.400
<v Speaker 1>Is New York, but take it for what it's worth

0:09:11.880 --> 0:09:13.600
<v Speaker 1>and I just want you to listen to this man

0:09:13.600 --> 0:09:14.480
<v Speaker 1>on the street that we did.

0:09:14.480 --> 0:09:15.440
<v Speaker 2>We played it last night.

0:09:16.040 --> 0:09:19.480
<v Speaker 7>So State assembly Woman Emily Gallagher seemed to suggest that

0:09:19.640 --> 0:09:21.920
<v Speaker 7>stealing should be legalized, and this is what she said.

0:09:22.160 --> 0:09:24.839
<v Speaker 7>Most of what we saw were crimes of poverty. People

0:09:24.840 --> 0:09:28.120
<v Speaker 7>who are stealing things like toothpaste, stealing things like soap.

0:09:28.360 --> 0:09:31.320
<v Speaker 7>And that means if you're stealing those things, you need them.

0:09:31.559 --> 0:09:33.560
<v Speaker 2>Do you agree with her partly?

0:09:33.720 --> 0:09:36.600
<v Speaker 8>I mean, some of these companies already have billions of

0:09:36.640 --> 0:09:39.920
<v Speaker 8>dollars invested in lost and theft protection and they have

0:09:39.960 --> 0:09:42.959
<v Speaker 8>insurance as well. And yeah, if you are stealing basic necessities,

0:09:43.000 --> 0:09:45.079
<v Speaker 8>you'd hope for the most part you need them. I mean,

0:09:45.120 --> 0:09:47.480
<v Speaker 8>you know, do it slyly, if you're good at it whatever.

0:09:47.559 --> 0:09:49.520
<v Speaker 8>I hate the obnoxious stealing. I hate if you make

0:09:49.559 --> 0:09:51.880
<v Speaker 8>a seem but I got it. If it's a small business,

0:09:51.960 --> 0:09:54.120
<v Speaker 8>don't steal from them. If it's Walmart, yeah, sure, go

0:09:54.160 --> 0:09:54.440
<v Speaker 8>for it.

0:09:54.720 --> 0:09:55.720
<v Speaker 4>I don't think I care.

0:09:57.880 --> 0:09:59.520
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, I mean I don't have a big issue with

0:09:59.559 --> 0:10:01.199
<v Speaker 9>stealing small items like that.

0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:05.000
<v Speaker 2>So generic hygiene, that's to me, that's a human right.

0:10:05.440 --> 0:10:07.600
<v Speaker 1>And so if you do not have access to those items,

0:10:07.600 --> 0:10:08.600
<v Speaker 1>for human rights.

0:10:08.920 --> 0:10:10.720
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I agree.

0:10:10.920 --> 0:10:14.440
<v Speaker 6>The problem isn't the people stealing, it's that the fact

0:10:14.480 --> 0:10:16.560
<v Speaker 6>that they have to steal to get that stuff.

0:10:16.720 --> 0:10:19.000
<v Speaker 2>I don't think crime is ever a choice. I think

0:10:19.040 --> 0:10:23.720
<v Speaker 2>it's a decision. I don't think stealing is actually okay. Ever,

0:10:24.320 --> 0:10:24.840
<v Speaker 2>that's one.

0:10:24.800 --> 0:10:28.040
<v Speaker 5>Of the spiritual commandments that shall not steal.

0:10:28.240 --> 0:10:29.240
<v Speaker 2>Well, I mean, if.

0:10:29.440 --> 0:10:33.080
<v Speaker 1>If you're hungry and no one's giving you a slice

0:10:33.080 --> 0:10:37.800
<v Speaker 1>of bread and there's one in the store, you're gonna eat.

0:10:39.080 --> 0:10:39.760
<v Speaker 2>You're gonna eat.

0:10:40.600 --> 0:10:43.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean it, Just think of what you just heard there.

0:10:44.240 --> 0:10:46.240
<v Speaker 1>I mean, if it's a big store, what do you

0:10:46.240 --> 0:10:48.000
<v Speaker 1>think the big stores do. The big stores will go

0:10:48.040 --> 0:10:51.000
<v Speaker 1>out of business. And I don't know why big stores

0:10:51.280 --> 0:10:53.439
<v Speaker 1>are hated so much. Why you think you have the

0:10:53.520 --> 0:10:57.640
<v Speaker 1>right to steal other people's stuff and then rationalize it

0:10:57.679 --> 0:11:00.120
<v Speaker 1>and justify, well, well, how far do we take this?

0:11:00.280 --> 0:11:03.679
<v Speaker 1>I need clothing for my children, I need clothing for myself.

0:11:04.600 --> 0:11:06.800
<v Speaker 1>I keep I only have two dresses I need. I

0:11:06.840 --> 0:11:09.240
<v Speaker 1>need a couple of new ones because I've got to

0:11:09.400 --> 0:11:11.080
<v Speaker 1>I've got a date on Friday night.

0:11:11.120 --> 0:11:11.520
<v Speaker 2>I don't know.

0:11:11.679 --> 0:11:14.199
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you get to steal that too. My kids

0:11:14.240 --> 0:11:16.000
<v Speaker 1>need new toys. I think I should be able to

0:11:16.040 --> 0:11:18.320
<v Speaker 1>steal that. I don't think it's fair that my kids

0:11:18.320 --> 0:11:23.200
<v Speaker 1>don't have sporting goods equipment. What happens those stores either

0:11:23.480 --> 0:11:28.720
<v Speaker 1>go out of business, raise their prices. And this is

0:11:28.800 --> 0:11:33.200
<v Speaker 1>the saddest part about liberalism in general and socialism in general,

0:11:34.000 --> 0:11:40.080
<v Speaker 1>is they they feel entitled. They will rationalize and justify

0:11:40.120 --> 0:11:43.000
<v Speaker 1>taking other people's money. Well, if it's a big corporation,

0:11:43.000 --> 0:11:44.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't care if it's Walmart. But if it's mom

0:11:44.840 --> 0:11:47.120
<v Speaker 1>and pop, I don't know. I leave the mom and

0:11:47.160 --> 0:11:50.240
<v Speaker 1>pops alone go to go to Walmart. I happen to

0:11:50.320 --> 0:11:54.800
<v Speaker 1>like Walmart. I like Walmart, I like Target, I like

0:11:55.200 --> 0:11:59.679
<v Speaker 1>all those big stores. I like Costco, Sam's Club. I

0:11:59.720 --> 0:12:02.440
<v Speaker 1>like those places. You know why because you can buy

0:12:02.440 --> 0:12:05.640
<v Speaker 1>in bulk and you can pay less money, and you know,

0:12:05.720 --> 0:12:09.040
<v Speaker 1>they have a variety second to none. They've got everything

0:12:09.080 --> 0:12:11.880
<v Speaker 1>you can ever want. You can even furnish a freaking

0:12:12.000 --> 0:12:15.040
<v Speaker 1>home at a Walmart. I know because I did when

0:12:15.080 --> 0:12:17.320
<v Speaker 1>I lived in Alabama and I was a local radio

0:12:17.320 --> 0:12:18.720
<v Speaker 1>host making nineteen grand a.

0:12:18.760 --> 0:12:22.079
<v Speaker 2>Year, So all of that is doable.

0:12:23.000 --> 0:12:26.400
<v Speaker 1>But this this mindset, they will either go out of business,

0:12:26.520 --> 0:12:29.319
<v Speaker 1>the store will close down, they will raise their prices.

0:12:29.720 --> 0:12:32.520
<v Speaker 1>And good people will have to pay it. Somebody's gonna pay.

0:12:33.840 --> 0:12:36.880
<v Speaker 1>And the worst part of all of this is these

0:12:37.040 --> 0:12:41.719
<v Speaker 1>people are only generous with other people's money if they

0:12:41.800 --> 0:12:45.560
<v Speaker 1>really cared about the people that they care so much

0:12:45.600 --> 0:12:50.120
<v Speaker 1>about that they're encouraging to steal and rationalizing away stealing,

0:12:50.920 --> 0:12:53.439
<v Speaker 1>you know, redistributing or taking the money from the.

0:12:53.400 --> 0:12:55.840
<v Speaker 2>Wealthy and all this. And you know they don't have

0:12:55.880 --> 0:12:56.440
<v Speaker 2>a right to this.

0:12:57.240 --> 0:13:02.280
<v Speaker 1>Okay, why don't they donate their money? They're generous with

0:13:02.520 --> 0:13:05.679
<v Speaker 1>everyone else's money. You know, you talk to people, I'll say, well,

0:13:05.720 --> 0:13:07.920
<v Speaker 1>what if somebody's a millionaire, how much of every dollar

0:13:07.960 --> 0:13:11.520
<v Speaker 1>should they be able to keep? Well, ten cents out

0:13:11.520 --> 0:13:13.600
<v Speaker 1>of every dollar. I've had people give me that answer.

0:13:13.600 --> 0:13:15.520
<v Speaker 1>What about billionaires? How much should they be able to

0:13:15.600 --> 0:13:18.160
<v Speaker 1>keep five cents out of every dollar that they make?

0:13:18.600 --> 0:13:20.040
<v Speaker 2>Well, I don't know.

0:13:20.000 --> 0:13:24.240
<v Speaker 1>Billionaires and millionaires that got money for free. They did

0:13:24.240 --> 0:13:28.000
<v Speaker 1>it by using their brains and working hard. That's how

0:13:28.040 --> 0:13:32.320
<v Speaker 1>you become successful and wealthy in life. And you use

0:13:32.440 --> 0:13:35.880
<v Speaker 1>something called freedom to use the talent that God gave you,

0:13:36.480 --> 0:13:40.160
<v Speaker 1>and then you take risks and you create goods and

0:13:40.280 --> 0:13:43.240
<v Speaker 1>services by working really hard, and then you can't force

0:13:43.320 --> 0:13:47.640
<v Speaker 1>people to buy your goods or use your services. You

0:13:47.760 --> 0:13:50.240
<v Speaker 1>have to be so good that they can't. They can't.

0:13:50.280 --> 0:13:53.200
<v Speaker 1>People can't not have it. I go back to the

0:13:53.240 --> 0:13:57.720
<v Speaker 1>example Nancy Pelosi gated neighborhood one mile away, big open

0:13:57.760 --> 0:14:01.439
<v Speaker 1>air drug you know what do they call those things?

0:14:02.160 --> 0:14:04.600
<v Speaker 1>One of the drug den that they live in. And

0:14:04.640 --> 0:14:08.640
<v Speaker 1>they're urinating on the streets, they're defecating on the streets,

0:14:08.640 --> 0:14:10.800
<v Speaker 1>they're shooting up on the streets a mile away, and

0:14:10.880 --> 0:14:13.640
<v Speaker 1>the other direction is her office. Why doesn't she go

0:14:13.679 --> 0:14:16.319
<v Speaker 1>to all of her millionaire friends in her gated community

0:14:16.640 --> 0:14:21.600
<v Speaker 1>and build out a nice, big homeless shelter, offer psychiatric

0:14:21.680 --> 0:14:25.160
<v Speaker 1>counseling for people that want and needed addiction counseling for people,

0:14:25.200 --> 0:14:27.240
<v Speaker 1>two meals a day, a place to shower and go

0:14:27.240 --> 0:14:31.480
<v Speaker 1>to the bathroom. She could do that, but why would

0:14:31.480 --> 0:14:33.920
<v Speaker 1>she ever use her money. She's just gonna want to

0:14:33.920 --> 0:14:36.000
<v Speaker 1>confiscate her from other people. Let me tell you the

0:14:36.040 --> 0:14:39.960
<v Speaker 1>last thing. Billionaires are not dumb. I met a few

0:14:40.000 --> 0:14:42.400
<v Speaker 1>of them in my life. I've talked to them. Their

0:14:42.440 --> 0:14:46.440
<v Speaker 1>stories are always fascinating to me. And billionaires are gonna leave.

0:14:47.080 --> 0:14:50.080
<v Speaker 1>They've left California, They've left New York, They've left Illinois,

0:14:50.120 --> 0:14:51.120
<v Speaker 1>they left New Jersey.

0:14:51.440 --> 0:14:52.840
<v Speaker 2>They're going to leave the.

0:14:52.640 --> 0:14:55.280
<v Speaker 1>Entire country if you pull this crap off. They're not

0:14:55.320 --> 0:14:58.480
<v Speaker 1>going to stay here and live under those conditions. They're

0:14:58.520 --> 0:15:02.520
<v Speaker 1>going to find a place where they have refuge and

0:15:02.600 --> 0:15:05.680
<v Speaker 1>freedom so they can continue to thrive and grow.

0:15:07.160 --> 0:15:10.120
<v Speaker 2>So stupid and short sighted R twenty.

0:15:09.840 --> 0:15:12.080
<v Speaker 1>Five till the top of the hour, eight hundred and

0:15:12.120 --> 0:15:14.360
<v Speaker 1>nine to four one Shawn on number. You want to

0:15:14.440 --> 0:15:17.600
<v Speaker 1>be a part of the program, you know, for I

0:15:17.680 --> 0:15:19.920
<v Speaker 1>lived paycheck to paycheck for a lot of years in

0:15:20.000 --> 0:15:21.120
<v Speaker 1>my early adult life.

0:15:21.440 --> 0:15:21.960
<v Speaker 2>Not fun.

0:15:22.600 --> 0:15:25.920
<v Speaker 1>I never felt poor though I never did. I mean

0:15:26.000 --> 0:15:27.800
<v Speaker 1>there were things I couldn't buy that I would have

0:15:27.920 --> 0:15:31.000
<v Speaker 1>liked to have bought. I mean, never went out to dinner.

0:15:31.040 --> 0:15:34.360
<v Speaker 1>That was a joke. And you know, I make meat

0:15:34.400 --> 0:15:38.080
<v Speaker 1>low for the week, and you know, a big meat low.

0:15:38.120 --> 0:15:40.680
<v Speaker 2>I love meat loaf, still love it. I can eat it.

0:15:40.840 --> 0:15:44.320
<v Speaker 1>I'll make things now for a week. I haven't really

0:15:44.400 --> 0:15:47.120
<v Speaker 1>changed that much. I like to cook a lot of

0:15:47.120 --> 0:15:51.320
<v Speaker 1>my own food. But when I started to save money,

0:15:51.320 --> 0:15:52.800
<v Speaker 1>somebody got a hold of me and said, you know,

0:15:52.880 --> 0:15:56.360
<v Speaker 1>you want to diversify your portfolio. You know I always

0:15:56.400 --> 0:15:58.800
<v Speaker 1>put and they explained how he put part of his

0:15:59.000 --> 0:16:00.120
<v Speaker 1>savings and gold and.

0:16:01.760 --> 0:16:04.080
<v Speaker 2>I listened to it. I don't even remember who it was.

0:16:04.200 --> 0:16:04.920
<v Speaker 2>I wish I did.

0:16:05.560 --> 0:16:07.640
<v Speaker 1>It was in like my mid late twenties when I

0:16:07.720 --> 0:16:12.640
<v Speaker 1>could start saving some money, and I've never regretted it.

0:16:12.640 --> 0:16:14.960
<v Speaker 1>It was good advice for me. I'm glad I did it.

0:16:15.040 --> 0:16:18.360
<v Speaker 1>I still do it today. The company that I do

0:16:18.400 --> 0:16:21.440
<v Speaker 1>business with is gold Co. I think by farther the best.

0:16:21.960 --> 0:16:25.240
<v Speaker 1>Reagan once said, inflation is as violent as a mugger,

0:16:25.320 --> 0:16:28.160
<v Speaker 1>as frightening as an arm robber, and as deadly as

0:16:28.200 --> 0:16:31.000
<v Speaker 1>a hit man. I think we should all listen to Reagan.

0:16:32.120 --> 0:16:34.760
<v Speaker 1>What does that mean for you and your money? What

0:16:34.800 --> 0:16:37.240
<v Speaker 1>does it mean for retirement savings? What does it mean

0:16:37.280 --> 0:16:40.520
<v Speaker 1>for the quality of your life and retirement. Look, I

0:16:40.640 --> 0:16:43.720
<v Speaker 1>just believe in diversification when it comes to money. And

0:16:44.040 --> 0:16:47.320
<v Speaker 1>you know I don't give out financial advice to people,

0:16:47.360 --> 0:16:49.040
<v Speaker 1>but I'm telling you this is one thing I never

0:16:49.080 --> 0:16:52.520
<v Speaker 1>regretted doing. And what I love about gold Co is

0:16:52.560 --> 0:16:56.480
<v Speaker 1>they like people to be informed, and that's why they

0:16:56.560 --> 0:17:00.040
<v Speaker 1>give out to anybody. They're free gold and Silver Guide.

0:17:00.120 --> 0:17:02.400
<v Speaker 1>And this way you do your due diligence and you

0:17:02.440 --> 0:17:05.360
<v Speaker 1>begin the process of due diligence. It's a great kit.

0:17:05.440 --> 0:17:09.120
<v Speaker 1>It's filled with critical information. And then you also will

0:17:09.119 --> 0:17:11.119
<v Speaker 1>see if you qualify for an extra ten percent and

0:17:11.200 --> 0:17:13.440
<v Speaker 1>bonus gold and silver just for getting started.

0:17:14.160 --> 0:17:15.040
<v Speaker 2>It's a great deal.

0:17:30.440 --> 0:17:33.240
<v Speaker 1>seven days till election day. And we have one of

0:17:33.240 --> 0:17:37.080
<v Speaker 1>the DSA leaders, Cliff Connolly. He's a member of the

0:17:37.160 --> 0:17:40.000
<v Speaker 1>DSA's National Political Committee. I'm not sure, Linda, if you

0:17:40.040 --> 0:17:44.000
<v Speaker 1>heard this one, you're gonna love this baby. Grip the Constitution.

0:17:44.400 --> 0:17:47.800
<v Speaker 1>This is in June of twenty twenty five. Who's on

0:17:47.840 --> 0:17:53.560
<v Speaker 1>some podcast? The interview is dug up, reported on Monday

0:17:53.680 --> 0:17:57.639
<v Speaker 1>by Natalie Winters, the co host of I Guess Steve

0:17:57.680 --> 0:18:03.159
<v Speaker 1>Bannon's podcast, and Connony bash the Supreme Court of the Land.

0:18:03.200 --> 0:18:07.720
<v Speaker 1>While talking about the Marxist Unity Group, which dubs itself

0:18:07.840 --> 0:18:11.280
<v Speaker 1>a DSA faction on their website, and the want to

0:18:11.320 --> 0:18:17.480
<v Speaker 1>be Revolutionary you know, said that those two groups view

0:18:17.560 --> 0:18:21.200
<v Speaker 1>the Constitution as a few useless pieces of parchment.

0:18:21.760 --> 0:18:22.399
<v Speaker 2>Let's play it.

0:18:22.800 --> 0:18:25.480
<v Speaker 10>The way I phrase it is of the DSA caucuses

0:18:25.840 --> 0:18:30.240
<v Speaker 10>that believe in democracy as an end goal, mug is

0:18:30.280 --> 0:18:33.760
<v Speaker 10>the only one that sees revolution as a necessity to

0:18:33.800 --> 0:18:37.119
<v Speaker 10>get there. And of the Caucasus and that see the

0:18:38.000 --> 0:18:42.040
<v Speaker 10>necessity of revolution, we're the only ones that see democracy

0:18:42.160 --> 0:18:43.000
<v Speaker 10>as the end goal.

0:18:43.560 --> 0:18:47.120
<v Speaker 9>So the two things that we're famous for is are

0:18:47.200 --> 0:18:52.280
<v Speaker 9>committed to a program and our hatred of the United

0:18:52.280 --> 0:18:55.840
<v Speaker 9>States Constitution. And what the program does is it gives

0:18:55.920 --> 0:18:59.720
<v Speaker 9>us a roadmap to revolution, and it gives us the

0:19:00.000 --> 0:19:03.240
<v Speaker 9>obscle that we finally will have to get over tab revolution,

0:19:03.320 --> 0:19:06.280
<v Speaker 9>which is the United States Constitution basis of the United

0:19:06.280 --> 0:19:07.080
<v Speaker 9>States government.

0:19:08.640 --> 0:19:12.600
<v Speaker 1>Okay, Now, when this when people say they want to

0:19:12.640 --> 0:19:18.080
<v Speaker 1>do things and they're now getting making more progress than

0:19:18.080 --> 0:19:18.919
<v Speaker 1>ever before.

0:19:19.640 --> 0:19:19.960
<v Speaker 2>Uh.

0:19:20.000 --> 0:19:23.760
<v Speaker 1>And that shoplifting is okay if you're a need, but

0:19:24.040 --> 0:19:27.040
<v Speaker 1>liberals themselves don't want to pay for it. You've got

0:19:27.080 --> 0:19:29.720
<v Speaker 1>to start listening to what they're saying, because they're not

0:19:29.800 --> 0:19:31.680
<v Speaker 1>saying it and not meaning it.

0:19:31.800 --> 0:19:33.119
<v Speaker 2>They're saying it and meaning it.

0:19:33.760 --> 0:19:36.080
<v Speaker 1>You know, I've been talking about six gender tell Rico,

0:19:36.160 --> 0:19:40.000
<v Speaker 1>We've been talking about you know, El sayed, We've been

0:19:40.000 --> 0:19:43.159
<v Speaker 1>talking about this guy and that replaced Graham Platin or

0:19:43.160 --> 0:19:47.040
<v Speaker 1>Grand Platner two point zero in uh in Maine, and

0:19:47.200 --> 0:19:49.320
<v Speaker 1>I just I'm trying to just let you know, be

0:19:49.400 --> 0:19:53.199
<v Speaker 1>informed voters. You know, we find out that uh, the

0:19:53.320 --> 0:19:58.399
<v Speaker 1>Tallafreco sixth gender God is non binary, championing the rights

0:19:58.400 --> 0:20:01.359
<v Speaker 1>of women to play men's sport, of men to play

0:20:01.400 --> 0:20:03.840
<v Speaker 1>women's sports, and the right of men to have access

0:20:04.280 --> 0:20:07.280
<v Speaker 1>biological men or trans people that have access to abortion.

0:20:07.400 --> 0:20:10.560
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know that a transman could ever have a

0:20:10.640 --> 0:20:13.639
<v Speaker 1>baby and would need an abortion. And this is in

0:20:13.760 --> 0:20:18.719
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty five, this bill. He voted against a resolution

0:20:18.920 --> 0:20:24.000
<v Speaker 1>banning Chinese nationals from buying Texas farmland. This is the

0:20:24.040 --> 0:20:28.680
<v Speaker 1>most insane level of ignorance out of Tallafrico that I've

0:20:28.680 --> 0:20:31.200
<v Speaker 1>ever heard, you know, on top of he's running a

0:20:31.280 --> 0:20:35.040
<v Speaker 1>vegan campaign and doesn't you know in a cattle state

0:20:35.080 --> 0:20:38.320
<v Speaker 1>and in an oil state, he doesn't want any energy independence.

0:20:38.720 --> 0:20:42.920
<v Speaker 1>And his answer was on this issue at you know,

0:20:43.520 --> 0:20:46.600
<v Speaker 1>this opposing this twenty twenty five bill in the Texas

0:20:46.640 --> 0:20:51.800
<v Speaker 1>House aimed at restricting Chinese nationals from buying Texas farmland.

0:20:52.440 --> 0:20:55.280
<v Speaker 1>You know, after saying earlier in his career that radicalized

0:20:55.320 --> 0:20:59.800
<v Speaker 1>white men are the greatest domestic terrorist threat in the country. Okay,

0:21:00.480 --> 0:21:04.520
<v Speaker 1>tall Ico did support a resolution condemning anti Asian hate

0:21:04.560 --> 0:21:10.960
<v Speaker 1>speech like kung flu and China virus. Radicalize white men

0:21:11.000 --> 0:21:15.200
<v Speaker 1>the greatest domestic threat in our country. We must confront

0:21:15.359 --> 0:21:19.359
<v Speaker 1>racism and misogyny everywhere from the schoolhouse to the White House.

0:21:19.720 --> 0:21:24.520
<v Speaker 1>And I'm proud to sign Representative Gene Wu's resolution condemning

0:21:24.600 --> 0:21:30.720
<v Speaker 1>anti Asian hate speech like kung flu and China virus. Well,

0:21:30.840 --> 0:21:34.639
<v Speaker 1>the Wuhan virus came from China. I guess is it

0:21:35.200 --> 0:21:38.080
<v Speaker 1>wrong to say German measles now not allowed to say

0:21:38.119 --> 0:21:42.720
<v Speaker 1>that anyway. We have primaries in the Free State of Florida.

0:21:43.920 --> 0:21:48.040
<v Speaker 1>People in Alaska, you better pay very close attention, Democrats.

0:21:48.080 --> 0:21:50.440
<v Speaker 1>We have an elected senator is doing a great job,

0:21:50.560 --> 0:21:54.199
<v Speaker 1>Dan Sullivan in Alaska, and President Trump has done so

0:21:54.359 --> 0:21:56.480
<v Speaker 1>much for the state of Alaska since he's got back

0:21:56.480 --> 0:21:59.439
<v Speaker 1>in office. And so they think they're clever they put

0:21:59.480 --> 0:22:03.080
<v Speaker 1>a d other Dan Sullivan on the ballot. I hope

0:22:03.080 --> 0:22:05.919
<v Speaker 1>if you're listening in Alaska, you don't get sucked in

0:22:06.000 --> 0:22:07.640
<v Speaker 1>by the wrong Dan Sullivan.

0:22:08.280 --> 0:22:08.840
<v Speaker 2>Unbelievable.

0:22:08.840 --> 0:22:11.639
<v Speaker 1>Wyoming also having primaries today, so we're watching all of

0:22:11.640 --> 0:22:13.600
<v Speaker 1>that we'll have coverage tonight on what comes out of

0:22:13.640 --> 0:22:19.040
<v Speaker 1>that Democrats in South Carolina presidential primary. It's interesting to

0:22:19.080 --> 0:22:23.240
<v Speaker 1>watch the Democratic National Committee's official storyline that the DNC's

0:22:23.280 --> 0:22:27.800
<v Speaker 1>decision to make South Carolina the first Democratic presidential primary

0:22:27.840 --> 0:22:33.040
<v Speaker 1>in twenty twenty eight isn't about introducing more racial diversity

0:22:33.080 --> 0:22:37.440
<v Speaker 1>into the early contests. They're bypassing Iowa and New Hampshire

0:22:37.520 --> 0:22:41.159
<v Speaker 1>for a reason. It's about keeping power in the hands

0:22:41.160 --> 0:22:44.800
<v Speaker 1>of the party establishment. So let me tell you DSA people,

0:22:45.320 --> 0:22:49.240
<v Speaker 1>they won't confront you publicly, they won't condemn you publicly,

0:22:49.600 --> 0:22:51.919
<v Speaker 1>they'll let you say every crazy thing you want, but

0:22:51.960 --> 0:22:54.840
<v Speaker 1>they're working behind the scenes to screw you all publicly.

0:22:56.440 --> 0:23:01.280
<v Speaker 1>So it's pretty interesting, you know. But you know, this

0:23:01.440 --> 0:23:05.119
<v Speaker 1>socialist insurgency is very, very real. It's a clear and

0:23:05.200 --> 0:23:11.600
<v Speaker 1>present danger. El Sayed aid likens GOP opponents campaign to

0:23:11.640 --> 0:23:19.000
<v Speaker 1>the KKK crossburning over a video with a Ford pickup. Wow,

0:23:20.040 --> 0:23:21.480
<v Speaker 1>by the way, I wonder if we have a shot

0:23:21.520 --> 0:23:24.040
<v Speaker 1>in New Hampshire. I really do. Which is where I

0:23:24.119 --> 0:23:25.879
<v Speaker 1>kind of want to go right now. I want to

0:23:25.960 --> 0:23:28.560
<v Speaker 1>kind of give you a little snapshot. We haven't gone over.

0:23:29.440 --> 0:23:32.439
<v Speaker 1>This is the stuff that I read every day. This

0:23:32.600 --> 0:23:34.560
<v Speaker 1>is the stuff that I pay close attention to. And

0:23:34.600 --> 0:23:36.520
<v Speaker 1>we'll have more with John McLachlan at the top of

0:23:36.520 --> 0:23:37.320
<v Speaker 1>the hour our poster.

0:23:37.400 --> 0:23:39.080
<v Speaker 2>He'll join us. We'll get his take on this.

0:23:39.960 --> 0:23:46.600
<v Speaker 1>Look in a mid term election year, it is historically

0:23:47.560 --> 0:23:51.520
<v Speaker 1>usually there've been a couple of exceptions, not many. The

0:23:51.560 --> 0:23:54.879
<v Speaker 1>party in power, meaning the party that has the White House,

0:23:55.320 --> 0:24:00.359
<v Speaker 1>tends to lose seats. We have very slim majorities both

0:24:00.400 --> 0:24:04.919
<v Speaker 1>the House and the Senate. Uh And so this what

0:24:05.119 --> 0:24:08.840
<v Speaker 1>makes this year unpredictable and why I say these are

0:24:08.880 --> 0:24:13.000
<v Speaker 1>uncharted waters is because we've never had a party become

0:24:13.040 --> 0:24:17.240
<v Speaker 1>this radicalized before. We just haven't had it now. If

0:24:17.240 --> 0:24:22.280
<v Speaker 1>you want, the bottom line is I agree with Mark Alprin.

0:24:22.960 --> 0:24:27.159
<v Speaker 1>Republicans can absolutely hold onto the House and the Senate.

0:24:27.960 --> 0:24:32.440
<v Speaker 1>There are not that many House seats that are toss

0:24:32.520 --> 0:24:36.159
<v Speaker 1>up seats. In other words, the jerrymandering of the Democrats.

0:24:36.160 --> 0:24:39.480
<v Speaker 1>Republicans did a little catching up, you know, in the

0:24:39.560 --> 0:24:43.280
<v Speaker 1>lead up to this election. Basically they've they've allowed Democrats

0:24:43.320 --> 0:24:46.679
<v Speaker 1>to own that that strategy and not challenge them on it.

0:24:46.720 --> 0:24:48.439
<v Speaker 1>So this is the first time they're saying, okay, if

0:24:48.440 --> 0:24:49.960
<v Speaker 1>that's how we're going to play the game. We'll play

0:24:49.960 --> 0:24:54.480
<v Speaker 1>it the same way. This is, in many ways, I think,

0:24:54.720 --> 0:24:57.280
<v Speaker 1>going to be a game of inches. I think it's

0:24:57.480 --> 0:25:00.399
<v Speaker 1>very smart that the Republicans and I will be there,

0:25:00.880 --> 0:25:06.520
<v Speaker 1>are having a midterm year convention that's not been done before.

0:25:07.440 --> 0:25:09.680
<v Speaker 1>I think it's very very smart. They can lay out

0:25:09.720 --> 0:25:13.680
<v Speaker 1>the accomplishments of the Trump administration, and we can compare

0:25:13.720 --> 0:25:18.119
<v Speaker 1>and contrast the two parties. Usually out of presidential you know,

0:25:18.160 --> 0:25:21.879
<v Speaker 1>when you when you have the convention. Presidential conventions usually

0:25:21.880 --> 0:25:26.520
<v Speaker 1>there's a bounce afterwards because people hopefully will watch. But

0:25:26.720 --> 0:25:29.639
<v Speaker 1>if you look at how many seats are really in

0:25:29.680 --> 0:25:34.560
<v Speaker 1>the toss up category, it's anywhere between twenty five and

0:25:34.680 --> 0:25:37.000
<v Speaker 1>if you really want to go to the high side, thirty.

0:25:37.119 --> 0:25:39.240
<v Speaker 2>I don't think it's that many that are that are

0:25:39.280 --> 0:25:39.880
<v Speaker 2>toss up.

0:25:40.880 --> 0:25:44.760
<v Speaker 1>Of those let's say we'll call it of those twenty

0:25:44.760 --> 0:25:51.919
<v Speaker 1>five to thirty seats twenty Right now, GOP candidates are

0:25:52.040 --> 0:25:57.600
<v Speaker 1>are up by three points or more. You have, for example,

0:25:58.359 --> 0:26:01.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, you have some Can's pulling between you know,

0:26:01.720 --> 0:26:05.080
<v Speaker 1>seven and ten percent. The rest over ten percent of

0:26:05.160 --> 0:26:08.359
<v Speaker 1>the solidly likely Republicans, which is about one hundred and

0:26:08.400 --> 0:26:12.800
<v Speaker 1>nineties or so seats and then we get to the

0:26:13.240 --> 0:26:17.240
<v Speaker 1>So it is very doable. The messaging has to be

0:26:17.400 --> 0:26:21.680
<v Speaker 1>right and people have to be made aware. One advantage

0:26:21.720 --> 0:26:25.199
<v Speaker 1>Republicans have this year, and it's never their advantage. They

0:26:25.240 --> 0:26:29.240
<v Speaker 1>have more money than they've ever had in any midterm

0:26:29.280 --> 0:26:32.760
<v Speaker 1>election season ever, and it's money that only they can

0:26:32.800 --> 0:26:34.320
<v Speaker 1>spend on the elections.

0:26:35.000 --> 0:26:36.680
<v Speaker 2>They have more money than ever before.

0:26:37.359 --> 0:26:40.440
<v Speaker 1>So if they do the right thing, they should spend

0:26:40.520 --> 0:26:44.440
<v Speaker 1>the money now it would be a pretty amazing I mean,

0:26:44.480 --> 0:26:45.960
<v Speaker 1>so what it means is you have to get to

0:26:46.000 --> 0:26:46.640
<v Speaker 1>too eighteen.

0:26:46.720 --> 0:26:49.720
<v Speaker 2>That's the bottom line. To eighteen is the magic number.

0:26:50.520 --> 0:26:54.080
<v Speaker 1>And if they win these toss up seats, you know,

0:26:54.119 --> 0:26:56.080
<v Speaker 1>you want to get as big a majority as you

0:26:56.160 --> 0:26:59.159
<v Speaker 1>possibly can. Let's say they wont say twenty seven, that

0:26:59.440 --> 0:27:02.520
<v Speaker 1>would bring them to two twenty five. If they won,

0:27:02.960 --> 0:27:06.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, thirty, it would bring them to two twenty eight.

0:27:06.520 --> 0:27:08.840
<v Speaker 1>That that then you have a solid majority. Then it's

0:27:08.920 --> 0:27:11.480
<v Speaker 1>then you can do a lot more. That's why they

0:27:11.480 --> 0:27:14.639
<v Speaker 1>all matter. Now as far as the path to the Senate,

0:27:14.680 --> 0:27:17.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling you what states I'm watching and watching closely,

0:27:17.320 --> 0:27:22.879
<v Speaker 1>obviously Michigan, Mike Rogers, Iowa. You know, Jony Ernst is retiring,

0:27:22.920 --> 0:27:24.879
<v Speaker 1>so it's gonna be a little bit more difficult, but

0:27:25.000 --> 0:27:26.560
<v Speaker 1>definitely winnable.

0:27:26.680 --> 0:27:27.960
<v Speaker 2>Iowa should go red.

0:27:29.080 --> 0:27:32.520
<v Speaker 1>Alaska is you know, unfortunately they're playing tricks in Alaska.

0:27:32.560 --> 0:27:33.960
<v Speaker 2>I mentioned about Dan Sullivan.

0:27:35.160 --> 0:27:38.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm not sure why they're at least in the polling

0:27:38.520 --> 0:27:41.760
<v Speaker 1>that I'm seeing is not a bigger lead in Ohio.

0:27:41.920 --> 0:27:45.639
<v Speaker 1>That is something to pay attention to, and probably areas

0:27:45.680 --> 0:27:49.360
<v Speaker 1>where the messaging needs to be made right and the

0:27:49.359 --> 0:27:53.920
<v Speaker 1>message needs to get out more. Then you have Texas

0:27:53.960 --> 0:27:58.679
<v Speaker 1>and you know, of course you have Paxton running against Telefreco. Uh.

0:27:58.880 --> 0:28:02.720
<v Speaker 1>And then we've been you know, following Maine and watching

0:28:02.760 --> 0:28:05.600
<v Speaker 1>that race very very closely. Also you have Graham Plattner

0:28:05.640 --> 0:28:09.119
<v Speaker 1>two point zero, you know, in Troy Jackson, and I

0:28:09.160 --> 0:28:11.440
<v Speaker 1>hope Troy Jackson. You know, we keep hearing that he's

0:28:11.440 --> 0:28:15.280
<v Speaker 1>got a vicious temper, allegations that he threw a water

0:28:15.359 --> 0:28:17.679
<v Speaker 1>bottle out a woman. One guy said we played it

0:28:17.760 --> 0:28:21.560
<v Speaker 1>yesterday that he witnessed this guy slap a woman with

0:28:21.640 --> 0:28:24.239
<v Speaker 1>an open hand. I don't know what the hell's going

0:28:24.280 --> 0:28:28.720
<v Speaker 1>on with Democrats in Maine, but it's pretty bad. And

0:28:29.119 --> 0:28:31.639
<v Speaker 1>then on the outside shot, you know, let's see what

0:28:31.680 --> 0:28:35.040
<v Speaker 1>happens in New Hampshire. I think New Hampshire might be

0:28:35.080 --> 0:28:36.760
<v Speaker 1>a little bit more in play than people are given

0:28:36.760 --> 0:28:39.760
<v Speaker 1>a credit for right now. But you know, if you

0:28:40.240 --> 0:28:44.000
<v Speaker 1>now in the next seventy seven days, you know, but understand,

0:28:44.480 --> 0:28:47.240
<v Speaker 1>every one of you listening to my voice, whether you

0:28:47.280 --> 0:28:50.680
<v Speaker 1>live in Michigan, Iowa, Alaska, Ohio, New Hampshire, Texas, and

0:28:50.760 --> 0:28:54.400
<v Speaker 1>Maine is irrelevant. It's relevant if you live there, then

0:28:54.400 --> 0:28:57.920
<v Speaker 1>we definitely need your vote. But for everybody else in

0:28:57.960 --> 0:29:02.160
<v Speaker 1>the country, you have an elected reperive and that elected

0:29:02.200 --> 0:29:06.560
<v Speaker 1>representative will determine whether or not Republicans retain control the

0:29:06.600 --> 0:29:11.920
<v Speaker 1>House of Representatives. And that means control and prevention of

0:29:11.920 --> 0:29:16.400
<v Speaker 1>this radicalized agenda of the DSA that now controls the

0:29:16.440 --> 0:29:19.320
<v Speaker 1>Democratic Party. So it matters. And then it's a matter

0:29:19.360 --> 0:29:23.040
<v Speaker 1>of how much of a I mean, I'd like to

0:29:23.040 --> 0:29:26.200
<v Speaker 1>see a little margin for once. And I know it's

0:29:26.240 --> 0:29:29.120
<v Speaker 1>hard because you know ninety five percent of incumbents tend

0:29:29.200 --> 0:29:32.280
<v Speaker 1>to get re elected. But you can't set this out

0:29:32.440 --> 0:29:35.200
<v Speaker 1>this election. There's too much on the line this election.

0:29:36.160 --> 0:29:38.160
<v Speaker 1>You know, maybe I've made a mistake in my career.

0:29:38.400 --> 0:29:41.160
<v Speaker 1>Maybe you know I've said too many times this is

0:29:41.200 --> 0:29:43.880
<v Speaker 1>the most important mid term in our lifetime. I meant it,

0:29:44.840 --> 0:29:49.080
<v Speaker 1>but nothing like this. Two hundred and fifty elected DSA

0:29:49.280 --> 0:29:52.440
<v Speaker 1>members and since twenty nineteen, forty plus new ones on

0:29:52.480 --> 0:29:53.480
<v Speaker 1>the ballot this year.

0:29:54.280 --> 0:29:56.520
<v Speaker 2>I mean they wanted that.

0:29:56.600 --> 0:29:58.440
<v Speaker 1>They're saying, yeah, we'd like to get rid of the

0:29:58.480 --> 0:30:02.120
<v Speaker 1>Constitution and the presidents in the Senate and packed the courts,

0:30:02.160 --> 0:30:05.440
<v Speaker 1>and no borders and you know, no police, and it

0:30:05.480 --> 0:30:06.920
<v Speaker 1>goes on and on. I give you the list of

0:30:07.120 --> 0:30:14.560
<v Speaker 1>every day. So yeah, especially Michigan, but especially Iowa, Alaska, Ohio,

0:30:14.680 --> 0:30:18.120
<v Speaker 1>New Hampshire, Texas and main Now usually in presidential election years,

0:30:18.440 --> 0:30:21.000
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna and by the way, Georgia and North Carolina,

0:30:22.200 --> 0:30:25.120
<v Speaker 1>I'd like to see better numbers out of Georgia. I'd

0:30:25.200 --> 0:30:28.480
<v Speaker 1>like to see better numbers out of North Carolina. North

0:30:28.480 --> 0:30:31.680
<v Speaker 1>Carolina would be a lost seat to Tom Tillis is leaving.

0:30:32.720 --> 0:30:36.000
<v Speaker 1>And you know they have a former governor the Democrats

0:30:36.000 --> 0:30:38.240
<v Speaker 1>do running and he's going to be hard to beat.

0:30:39.160 --> 0:30:42.400
<v Speaker 1>He's run statewide a number of times. Name recognition is

0:30:42.400 --> 0:30:46.200
<v Speaker 1>through the roof. You have Mike Watley running for the Republicans,

0:30:46.200 --> 0:30:47.920
<v Speaker 1>you have Roy Cooper running as the Democrat.

0:30:48.000 --> 0:30:48.200
<v Speaker 2>There.

0:30:49.480 --> 0:30:53.600
<v Speaker 1>I wish that that Governor kemp Ran in Georgia, he

0:30:53.600 --> 0:30:59.200
<v Speaker 1>would absolutely crush us off and his obvious presidential ambitions

0:30:59.240 --> 0:31:02.360
<v Speaker 1>that he has. So you know, that's where I see

0:31:02.360 --> 0:31:04.440
<v Speaker 1>it right now. This is the stuff that I go

0:31:04.520 --> 0:31:06.160
<v Speaker 1>through every day. But I don't want to bore you

0:31:06.200 --> 0:31:08.960
<v Speaker 1>with but you know, we'll go into a little more detail.

0:31:09.040 --> 0:31:10.920
<v Speaker 1>John McLachlan's going to join us at the top of

0:31:10.920 --> 0:31:12.680
<v Speaker 2>The hour and we'll talk to him more about it.
