00:28:19.620It's powered by everyday Americans who are sick and tired of all the woke propaganda being jammed into every product they consume.
00:28:28.900Big mobile companies are no different.
00:28:30.580For years, they have been dumping millions into leftist causes, and we had to take it because you need a cell phone and probably thought there was no alternative, but there is.
00:28:41.780Patriot Mobile is America's only Christian conservative wireless provider, offering dependable nationwide coverage on all three major networks so you get the best possible service in your area without the woke politics.
00:28:57.000When you switch to Patriot Mobile, you're sending a message that you support free speech, religious liberty, the sanctity of life, Second Amendment, and our military veterans and first responder heroes.
00:29:10.600Their 100% U.S.-based customer service team makes switching easy.
00:30:59.420That the 2020 election was stolen and Joe Biden is totally illegitimate.
00:31:03.060We'll also get to get into the Fed's direction of January 6th, of what actually happened, what really happened.
00:31:10.920And we'll get all that for the world, the American people in the world to see.
00:31:15.020In addition, even the weak-willed Republicans in the House cannot turn away their eyes from the work of Natalie Winters and others that now, in very deep dives, are showing that the Biden family knowingly, knowingly, knowingly, and willingly sold out their country and their countrymen for cash money.
00:31:45.020And so, therefore, we must go on an impeachment inquiry of Joe Biden.
00:33:49.540But no, that's being somebody that prays the rosary, being someone that believes in the great traditions and customs of Christianity and Catholicism, that makes you a domestic terrorist.
00:34:52.300Took it to some deep prayer, my wife and I.
00:34:54.800And we have learned that God's will for us is to run for the first congressional district in Pennsylvania up against incumbent Brian Fitzpatrick in the April primary.
00:35:34.500So, look, I don't want what happened to me to happen to anyone else in my district or this country, for that matter.
00:35:43.300So after much prayer, as I said, and conversation with people who have mentored me, like Congressman Scott Perry, the republic is falling apart, as you just said.
00:35:58.680I believe St. Augustine, the great patriarch father of the church, desert father, said that when you have an opportunity to have power, you should take it and use it for good.
00:36:11.480And so we prayed about it, and we decided that the best thing we can do to help this republic is to run against the incumbent, Brian Fitzpatrick, who does not vote for me in the way I would like him.
00:36:42.860So I think that was just the final straw that broke the camel's back for me, and I just decided we have to give better option to the people of the first district, and that's why I'm running.
00:36:56.140Mark, explain your – in your running, it's quite emblematic of somebody that's just not going to take it.
00:37:04.360And talk about – give the audience that maybe wasn't here in January with us just – what did the administrative state and the deep state do to you?
00:37:13.560Just give the audience an example of how they tried to break you as a person and as a man of God.
00:37:19.900Well, as you already kind of alluded to, they stormed onto my property in the middle of the night.
00:37:26.320It was a dark o'clock in the morning, and we know tyrannies and dictatorships are coming to this country when little children are awoken from their sleep and their fathers arrested in the cover of night at gunpoint.
00:37:38.500And so that's exactly how it happened.
00:37:41.800They proceeded to treat me like an animal, shackle me to a table for six-plus hours in a federal building with every intention to release me on my own recognizance.
00:37:53.020Their whole goal there was to humiliate me, intimidate me, and instill fear, which they effectively did in my children and most of pro-life America.
00:38:00.840However, we weren't interested in that because we've been saying yes to martyrdom for 20 years.
00:38:06.780So when martyrdom knocked on my door, essentially fear knocked on my door, faith answered, and they had no response.
00:38:13.440When they approached me of all dates on January 6th, which I said on the war room on January 30th, that there was a plea, a sweetheart deal that they could offer me.
00:38:35.080I went home, and I talked to her, and she said, you're not taking it because you're innocent.
00:38:38.920Secondly, if you decide to take it, don't bother coming home because you're not welcome here.
00:38:42.940And thirdly, we need to do it for the good of the pro-life movement.
00:38:47.020And so we recognize that there's a greater call, even in the midst of being a father, a husband, a ministry guy, that there was a greater call for our country and for the pro-life movement.
00:38:56.980And, of course, we're more than just a pro-life candidate.
00:39:00.920But that was that history, and, of course, we're going to build off that.
00:39:29.900We prevailed in less than an hour when we got our true jury of our peers.
00:39:33.980In less than an hour, they deliberated, and they rendered that decision and acquitted me of all charges at the 3 o'clock hour, which we know is the hour of divine mercy.
00:40:15.500And we address issues like the military.
00:40:18.160We're addressing issues like helping our vets, the kids in the school getting legislation forward to protect the girls on the playing fields, addressing environmental issues, and all that stuff can be found there.
00:40:30.560And then, of course, we'll be building out that website, making it more robust as we go along.
00:40:52.540Another warrior right now, audience favorite, Dan Bishop.
00:40:55.020Dan, we have – I take it this is kind of bittersweet because you are among this audience's favorite congressman because of your earnestness and your toughness and your focus.
00:41:06.300But tell us about the announcement you just made.
00:41:25.060I'm running for attorney general of North Carolina.
00:41:28.640And, you know, Steve, I think this fight is the same.
00:41:32.180And it's a question of which rampart you're manning at a particular point in time.
00:41:38.040The attorney general seat in North Carolina has never been won by a Republican since Reconstruction.
00:41:44.760And it is a – there's tremendous potency in those offices.
00:41:48.560And as you are well aware, to the points that you've even made in this broadcast so far, my experience in Washington, four years there so far, sort of part of a term in – after a special election in 2019, I've been elected twice since then.
00:42:04.460But Republicans – there's a status quo that affects even the Republican Party.
00:42:10.860And people are not yet prepared to go to the mat to make the changes that have to be made.
00:42:15.180You're aware because I was – I went ballistic about the capitulation and the debt ceiling negotiations back in June.
00:42:23.280We've worked hard in the beginning of this year.
00:42:25.780I'm so proud of my House Freedom Caucus colleagues, especially the Patriot 20 who contested the Speaker's election in order to reform practices in the House.
00:42:35.720And – but I think the right field for me is this open seat for attorney general in North Carolina where I can begin pushing to restore law and order in our cities in North Carolina, help consolidate Republican governance there.
00:42:50.840We have both bodies of the legislature and, most importantly, perhaps, the attorney's general positions have evolved into a nationwide team that fights administrative overreach by the deep state and by Joe Biden and whoever is president, frankly.
00:43:10.360And so I look forward to being a thought leader in that and an aggressive participant in protecting people's rights and freedoms as attorney general of North Carolina.
00:43:23.640Congressman Bishop, can you just hang here one second?
00:43:25.440We have to take a short commercial break.
00:43:26.660I just want to ask you a couple of questions about the Tar Heel State, one of the best states in the union, and what's happened down there.
00:43:33.780Dan Bishop has announced he's going to leave Congress to run to become the first Republican attorney general since Reconstruction.
00:44:02.460COVIDtaxrelief.org got a small retail business, almost $80,000.
00:44:10.320COVIDtaxrelief.org got a manufacturing business, nearly $250,000.
00:44:16.840And COVIDtaxrelief.org just got a large distribution business, almost $900,000.
00:44:25.940If you run a business, church, or nonprofit and paid your employees through all or part of the pandemic, you could qualify for up to $26,000 per employee through the government's CARES Act.
00:44:41.900But beware of clickbait or pay upfront companies who make you do the work and take a huge percentage of your refund.
00:44:49.580COVIDtaxrelief.org receives a low reasonable commission only after you receive your refund.
00:44:56.800And with 300 CPAs and tax experts, no one is better at getting you the maximum benefit than COVIDtaxrelief.org.
00:45:06.660Visit COVIDtaxrelief.org now because this plan expires soon.
00:46:32.240So I'm going to be right there with my stalwart colleagues, and we've got a lot left to do, and we will keep doing it.
00:46:38.600And so I look forward to serving for the balance of 2023 and all of 2024, even while this election goes on in North Carolina.
00:46:48.160We'll have to walk and chew gum at the same time, but we can do that.
00:46:50.940And I will tell you this, Steve, I've got pledges lined up for this campaign just opened.
00:46:58.160We're going to have a magnificent first 10 days, and we'll report.
00:47:02.180I anticipate that when we report our first 10-day report, which you do in North Carolina, we'll be reporting a million dollars raised.
00:47:09.260And I will say to your viewers, if they'll go to votedanbishop.com, if they're inclined to donate a handful of dollars or whatever, this is the deal.
00:47:22.520The reason we've never won in North Carolina the Attorney General spot is we haven't put up a Republican candidate who's capable and ready for running statewide.
00:47:30.380The money matters. Lots of other stuff matters.
00:47:33.580Being truthful matters the most, and being courageous, I think, matters as much as truth, but the money is important, too.
00:48:08.620But it really is within the 2000s, the turn of the century, when we really matured as a two-party state.
00:48:15.080Republicans took the legislature, and that was almost unimaginable when it occurred in 2010, midterm of the Obama years.
00:48:21.320There's been a sea change, fantastic improvement in fiscal management and the like for the Republican legislature for the last, what, 12, 13 years.
00:48:31.280But the 16 years the Attorney General spot was held by Roy Cooper, and then he became governor, and he's a committed leftist.
00:48:41.900And a guy who's even farther left than him followed him in the Attorney General's seat, and that's Josh Stein, who's now running for governor against a great patriot.
00:48:51.500Actually, I have a primary there, but I've endorsed Mark Robinson for governor in North Carolina.
00:49:52.040And so build representation in the Electoral College and in the House of Representatives that way and keep fighting it out.
00:49:59.260We've got to keep, as I said, mount the ramparts, rotate strategies in order to win the country and save the country.
00:50:05.260Congressman, right before I let you go, can you give me a minute on – we're going to have a – I take it a massive fight on appropriations, all these bills.
00:50:15.040It's impossible to get this done in the, what, 15 – 12 working days when you guys get back in September.
00:50:20.660However, how – is the 20 and the 71 that fought the debt ceiling are going to dig in on this, sir?
00:50:27.680Certainly can speak for the 20, and I believe many others that, you know, not only House Freedom Caucus, but the Republican Study Committee, a much larger conservative group, has been right with us on fulfilling the commitment made in the Speaker's Contest back in January to go to the fiscal year 2022 spending levels without smoke and mirrors.
00:50:46.660And those bills can't be – you're right about the timing, but there needs to be a short-term continuing resolution in the picture.
00:50:53.880It ought to cut government spending too, but – and it ought to do something else.
00:50:59.400It ought to do something really – we ought to go to the mat over the border in that particular thing.
00:51:03.800But, yes, you can bet it – bet that Chip Roy and Scott Perry and I, Lauren Boebert, Eli Crane, the rest, we're going to be fighting this out.
