Taylor Swift has endorsed the Democratic presidential candidate, Kamala Harris, and she's got a message for all of us: Vote Blue. In a country where roughly half of people are staring openly at a movement that is anti-democratic, that flirts with fascism, that talks about dictatorship, and about half of Americans are saying, That s what I'm choosing.
00:00:00.000I mean, I think we always, that's the key fact here, you know, you can have a commanding performance, you can have a night like that, you can have a month of extraordinary vibes as she had, and this is still a country where roughly half of people are staring openly at a movement that is anti-democratic, that flirts with fascism, that talks about dictatorship.
00:00:24.880And about half of Americans, I think at this point with some amount of clear eyes and knowing what they're choosing, are saying, yeah, that.
00:00:32.900And so she had a great night, an extraordinary night, she's had a great summer, but I think now there is, as they say all the time, there is a lot of room to grow still.
00:00:43.880They need to translate all of this, the Taylor Swift of it all also, into a real movement that attracts even more people, that revs up their own people to vote.
00:00:55.600Anna and I always talk about the need for us to figure out a way forward, to figure out how to be, after this election, if Donald Trump is defeated, to remember of those who supported Donald Trump,
00:01:14.760the words of the words of Lincoln at the end of the Civil War, a much greater situation where 600, 700,000 people died because of the actions of the Confederacy.
00:01:27.760But what did Lincoln say with malice toward none?
00:01:31.760So, OK, so I got that. And and I'm glad that Joe Biden went and showed people, you know, what, you know, what that grace is like with the Trump supporter in Pennsylvania.
00:01:46.600I mean, I'm a lot of people might not have liked what he did. I liked what he did. I like what it said.
00:01:52.880I want America. Let's work through this. So all of that. Let's put that right here.
00:01:58.900Now, let's go over here. And I want to follow up with something that you said.
00:02:03.200Even if Kamala Harris wins, even if she wins in an electoral landslide, the morning after the election, we will be seeing close to 80 million Americans endorsing Donald Trump's view of America, Donald Trump's autocratic view of America.
00:02:26.560And isn't it something I'm grappling with now? How do we put our arms around the fact that even if Harris wins, we will wake up the morning after with close to 80 million people endorsing Donald Trump's anti-democratic view of America?
00:02:44.520I deeply agree with that. And the problem with elections is that they're so important and it's there's a deadline that everybody's always focused on the immediate thing.
00:02:53.720And what you described in some ways is the real work, because, as you say, you know, we have a technology for getting rid of bad leaders.
00:03:03.620Right. And it's called elections. If you have 80 million people who have now had eight or nine years of exposure to the authoritarian offerings of Donald Trump, this is not a new thing.
00:03:16.260They've seen the ups. They've seen the downs. They've had him as president like they've kicked the tires.
00:03:20.340They've gone for a very long test drive. If at the end of that nine year arc, we are essentially still now a country where 80 million people want authoritarianism.
00:03:34.300You're right. Winning an election is not going to resolve that. It's going to keep it at bay.
00:03:38.040And I think there need to be people who are not immediately focused on November and who are freed from that work, who are thinking about the generational challenge.
00:03:47.400This is a 30 year bit of work. This is this is an organizing challenge of a generation.
00:03:53.540You know, I blame leaders, but you can't really blame your fellow citizens in a democracy.
00:03:58.460We you have to work them. You have to invite them into a vision that is more compelling than what they're being attracted to.
00:04:04.460I believe that very deeply. And right now, 80 million of our neighbors and uncles and aunts and people you went to high school with and people you are in a family with.
00:04:17.960You see at Thanksgiving every year, 80 million of our people who we share a heart and country with want authoritarianism, want this kind of white nationalism, and we have to win them back.
00:04:32.720There is no long term strategy to save this country, but winning them back.
00:04:36.940Right. I think the ability for this to be a monumental not only endorsement, but but opportunity for celebrities to step in and try to move the needle.
00:04:45.040I think it exists here. It kind of brings me back to the 1990s when Rock the Vote started.
00:04:49.980It changed the way that younger people believed they could be involved in the American voting system, because back in the 90s, most young people thought, hey, that's what older people do.
00:04:59.200They vote. That's not my thing. Rock the Vote and celebrities really changed that approach.
00:05:04.460Now, is this only this endorsement right here where she puts out the image, puts out her statement and encourages people to get more information that likely won't make a huge difference.
00:05:13.260But because of her platform and the opportunity that exists here with her, if she is willing to do more, whatever that may be, if that is a concert where your entry fee is a voter registration ticket that you've done that, that could help move the needle.
00:05:28.440Well, the thing that I think is happening under the radar, not not not reasonably reported and we'll find out, is just the extent to which we talk about undecided voters.
00:05:37.320I don't think there are many of those. There may be a lot of unregistered voters.
00:05:41.800And you think about how Harris may be tapping into those younger voters, younger women.
00:05:47.580Think about the Taylor Swift effect. I think Taylor Swift should go out and do concerts and make it free for anybody who's unregistered.
00:05:53.320And if they show up, they have to register, do that in swing states.
00:05:57.320So I think the unregistered voters and the number of those that may be showing up may be the may be the big factor in this election that we haven't fully accounted for.
00:06:08.420This is the primal scream of a dying regime.
00:06:13.320Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people.
00:06:17.240The reason I got a free shot at all these networks lying about the people, the people have had a belly full of it.
00:06:24.840I know you don't like hearing that. I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. It's going to happen.
00:06:30.160And where do people like that go to share the big lie?
00:22:27.660Okay, so in the debate, we didn't have any fact-checkers on the blue side, just on the red side, which is just stunning in itself.
00:22:35.980And so why don't you do a little fact-checking on the fracking in Pennsylvania,
00:22:41.020on the major issues that they didn't get it right in the debate, Dave Walsh, fire away.
00:22:45.500Well, they don't have to come out banning fracking because they're doing it already, and they're doing it this way,
00:22:51.720through incentives on solar, wind, and battery storage, huge incentives, promoting more of that.
00:22:57.720By using the EPA to shut down combined cycle gas plants, shut down all the remaining coal plants,
00:23:03.360they're using the EPA to stifle demand for natural gas in gas-fired, highly efficient power generation that feeds 41 percent of the country's electricity.
00:23:11.900So they're going to kill that off, and then with these decrees, such as in the Gulf of Mexico,
00:23:16.260they're positioned to shut off production there in December, comfortably right after the election.
00:23:21.500We've got a whale issue that the EPA has identified to shut down production in the Gulf of Mexico.
00:23:26.240So what these guys – these guys have many other avenues, and they know that, to completely – oh, and stop exports of LNG,
00:23:33.080with no new export terminals being permitted, that their DOE has announced about a year ago.
00:23:52.640Then the Europe thing, by the way, President Trump did mention, with the $230 billion we've thrown in,
00:23:58.480European demand for Russian oil reached climactic levels in June and July of this summer.
00:24:04.640Right under $60 a barrel, the boycott threshold, Western Europe is now returning to buying record amounts of oil from Russia,
00:24:12.280supposedly our allies funding the war against Ukraine, and have never ceased – the boycotts never ceased – purchases of natural gas from Russia,
00:24:20.540which have continued unabated, despite one pipeline being blown up,
00:24:24.640have continued unabated by LNG and other means into Western Europe the entire time.
00:24:28.700So they're still heavily dependent on Russian energy and therefore paying in part for the war effort by Putin, our supposed allies.
00:25:49.640I mean, it's the most irrational policy you've ever heard in California.
00:25:53.740They are basically importing 40 percent of their energy so they can have the badge of saying we're all green and then bringing in all the bad energy, according to them,
00:26:05.860and making you pay the price for that.
00:26:08.100And that's what's coming to the country.
00:29:46.880And unfortunately, a large part of those low propensity voters are called Christians.
00:29:51.740And so we've got on one of the force multipliers down in Georgia.
00:29:56.760Of course, it says reach across the entire country and has been doing yeoman's work for decades in the fields on behalf of Christ, the church, and the country simultaneously, which is the way it's supposed to be done by everyone.
00:30:11.720And so we want to welcome Ralph Reed to the show.
00:30:33.320Number one, the most biased, unprofessional, and unfair broadcast of a presidential debate by ABC News in the history of modern American politics since the beginning of televised debates in 1960 with Kennedy and Nixon.
00:30:50.540You know, you know, you know, you know, all the facts about how they interrupted Trump repeatedly, quote, fact checked him with erroneous statements and false statements of their own.
00:31:00.600You know, my favorite one of all, Dave, was when they asked Donald Trump effectively, you know, when did you become a racist?
00:31:09.460And then turned to her and said, how did you make it?
00:31:13.460How did it make you feel when he made that racist comment about you?
00:31:17.400I mean, you know, you just can't even make it up.
00:31:21.100The American people are not as stupid as the media and the pundits and the prognosticators think, and they know that in spite of all that bias, she presented no plan to strengthen the economy beyond a $5 trillion tax increase and more spending blowouts and giveaway programs that are just more of the failed policies of the last four years.
00:31:43.920On abortion, Dave, she called for repealing the filibuster and passing the most radical pro-abortion legislation ever considered on the floor of the Congress that would impose abortion on demand at every stage of pregnancy, paid for tax dollars for any reason or no reason at all on all 50 states and repeal immediately virtually every common sense restriction existing in every state in America, including parental consent.
00:32:13.920And on Afghanistan, she said she not only had no regrets, she said she 100 percent supported Joe Biden's decision and the execution of the withdrawal from Afghanistan, which humiliated our nation, killed 13 servicemen and women, seriously injured another 45, emboldened Vladimir Putin and our adversaries, and then they failed to be there for those who lost their loved ones.
00:32:43.080So it was a performance that I believe, you know, I'm not, I believe you run scared and like you're behind, Dave, but I really believe for the swing voters, for those low propensity voters that you were just talking about, on the issues, on the policies, she lost the debate.
00:33:01.900They're focused on style points, they're focused on style points, to those voters, what they care about is what are you going to improve my, what are you going to do to improve my life?
00:33:09.860She failed that test and for that reason, I believe you give this time, it will redound to Donald Trump's benefit.
00:33:16.560Yeah, I think you nailed it on the performance part, the drama versus the substance, you're spot on.
00:33:27.740And, you know, it's an error the Christian community, the Jewish community, the religious community has been making for decades now.
00:33:36.760We kind of assume in Christian benevolence and charity and kindness and virtue that, you know, like for the past 200 years, roughly speaking, the country fits broadly, at least, within the Judeo-Christian, you know, synthesis of, you know, Greek reason and biblical religion.
00:33:56.300But now that is blown out of the water, right?
00:34:00.840We've been going along with secular ethics for 20 or 30 years, the Christian church has this neutral, bland kind of stuff, where the left just asserts human rights out of thin air, and we've gone along with it.
00:34:12.900Kamala, no one knows, you know, what God are we talking about?
00:34:16.360Our God in the Judeo-Christian West is a very jealous God.
00:34:18.980It says it's a first commandment, I am, I am God, and there is no other.
00:34:23.180We've been given no knowledge of who that God is and what morality, right?
00:34:29.980When they're mentioning virtues and David Muir is pontificating about values and virtues and all the, what morality are you talking about, right?
00:34:39.420Marxists don't believe in any morality.
00:34:41.260They think it's fake and constructed by capitalists, and they want to take it all down.
00:34:45.840And so before we get into the voter issues down in Atlanta, what's your analysis there, Ralph, on how Christians are being deceived broadly and how we need to open our eyes?
00:34:59.920Well, I don't think it's really that complicated, Dave.
00:35:02.760You know, when the gospel is preached, okay, with boldness and with confidence and with the power of the Holy Spirit, it transforms lives.
00:35:13.980And when those lives are transformed, the Bible teaches that they, through the renewing of their mind, develop sound thinking.
00:35:25.800But if the church is not preaching the gospel, okay, and if the church is not sticking to the Bible, if it starts to bend in the winds of the culture,
00:35:36.760whatever that culture is, instead of remaining true to the unadulterated, unalloyed truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ,
00:35:45.620then the church is basically no longer doing its job.
00:35:49.000It's a country club with a steeple, you know, and that's what sadly has happened.
00:38:40.100Number one, we've built a database working with our data partners of 45.1 million modeled evangelical Christian voters in the country.
00:38:52.180Roughly 15 million or about a third of them are low propensity to to mid low propensity voters in the battleground states.
00:39:02.780That number is twenty six point four million and around seven million are low to mid propensity voters.
00:39:10.680And let's take it down to Georgia in Georgia.
00:39:14.440We have one million eight hundred and twenty five thousand seven hundred and thirty two modeled evangelical Bible believing Christian voters.
00:39:30.180About a half a million of those have voted in one or fewer of the last three elections.
00:39:36.320So let me tell you what we're doing at Faith and Freedom.
00:39:39.440We're not ignoring the high propensity voters, but people like you and me, Dave, who vote in every election and every primary, you know, people who vote.
00:40:10.420If they still haven't requested an absentee or mail ballot within two weeks, we show back up at their door and we say, look, I know I was just here a week or two ago, but we're monitoring the the the request for absentee ballots because I don't know how many people know this.
00:40:27.180But that's a public document and you haven't made a plan to vote yet.
00:40:33.060And I got to keep showing up until you vote.
00:40:41.140Every one of those low propensity voters in an ex bourbon urban or suburban zip code will get a minimum of two and sometimes three home visits.
00:40:52.920OK, and then the second thing, and this is critical, Dave, I think we talked about this the last time I was on with you.
00:41:51.100Somebody exposes the truth just to be labeled a conspiracy theorist realist, only to be proven right later on.
00:41:59.480Well, let me tell you about the next thing you should be concerned about.
00:42:04.040Government geo tracking of your phone and other devices.
00:42:08.420We've seen the government use geo fencing to track the devices of individuals on January 6th, leading to unwarranted arrests without evidence of wrongdoing.
00:42:18.480Stop big tech and government overreach.
00:46:12.880Linda's been working on the State Board of Elections.
00:46:17.040She's been working on the postmaster issues.
00:46:20.180And so, Linda Sinkowitz, welcome to the war room.
00:46:24.920Please share with us the great work you've been doing and how people should be energized and what they can do in these final months to get across the line and save our republic.
00:46:37.240Well, thank you, Dave, for having me on.
00:46:40.880But I should qualify the fact that I'm actually from Connecticut.
00:46:43.820Our organization, Fight Voter Fraud, is in 49 states.
00:46:50.940I mean, people in Georgia are absolutely wonderful.
00:46:53.100One of the things that I wanted to remind people of is the drama that still continues down in Georgia concerning the three election board members that a month or so ago actually reiterated the fact that if there is one vote, there should be one voter attached to that process before the ballots are actually certified.
00:47:19.300And what ended up happening is they ended up sending or having the Democrats with ethics complaints saying you can't do that.
00:47:30.140We don't want that done, which is ridiculous.
00:47:33.020It's basically when you go on a plane, you have, you know, you're on a plane, you have one ticket.
00:47:37.120You want the number of people on the plane to match the ticket.
00:47:40.600Well, they don't want them to do that in Georgia.
00:47:43.620So all that was doing was just reiterating the law that's in effect already on the books.
00:47:50.620And Governor Brian Kemp had actually sent the ethics complaint to the attorney general car to get his opinion.
00:47:58.680But the attorney general kind of threw it back, saying just because there's a, quote, formal complaint does not mean that action actually has to be taken.
00:48:07.880And so it's just gotten really ridiculous with the Democrats.
00:48:12.220And honestly, we're a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization.
00:48:17.940But why do the Democrats in Georgia not want to have everything to make sure everything's all set?
00:48:42.240Yeah, Linda, you just put your finger on it, right?
00:48:44.560That shows the fairness and who the authoritarians are.
00:48:47.860Well, you just described every business works that way.
00:48:50.940Audits, making sure one person is associated with this account.
00:48:54.300I mean, it's all perfectly reasonable unless you're on the left.
00:48:57.900And so I think you also have some news on the Postmaster.
00:49:01.020What's the latest on that breaking story?
00:49:03.220OK, so what's going on with that is the National Association of the State Election Directors in every state and the National Association of the Secretaries of State combined and sent a letter to the U.S. Postmaster General, Louis DeJoy,
00:49:20.520basically complaining about the fact that when the ballots go out, we've had an issue, they're not being sent within the three to five days.
00:49:29.480They're sending them back undeliverable to addresses that the people they absolutely know live there.
00:49:34.740And what was really funny about one of the things that I read is that they're sending some of them back to the voters themselves saying that the election offices don't exist.
00:50:15.820So I don't know if this is setting us up again for a way out on election officials to say, hey, it's not my fault with what's going to go on.
00:50:25.020Or is it, you know, really, truly the postal system that has a problem with 600,000 employees that are not trained properly?
00:50:34.460Yeah. But all of this affects us as voters.
00:50:39.140Yeah. You know, so the blame game has started.
00:51:23.020Americans are tired and frustrated by a stalling economy, inflation, endless wars and the relentless assault on our values.
00:51:31.420Thankfully, there are companies like Patriot Mobile that still believe in America and our Constitution.
00:51:37.840They're on the front lines fighting for the First and Second Amendments, sanctity of life and our military and first responder heroes.
00:51:45.720Take a stand for conservative causes and put America first by switching to Patriot Mobile today.
00:51:50.980You'll get the same nationwide coverage as the big providers because Patriot Mobile operates across all three major networks.
00:52:00.020Plus, they back their service for the coverage guarantee.

00:52:17.220I want to warn you of a huge change that could be coming to our money in our bank accounts.
00:52:35.180First, think back to 9-11, shortly after the government pushed through the Patriot Act.
00:52:39.180This gave the government power to spy on innocent Americans by monitoring our phone and email and tracking our movement across the Internet.
00:52:48.040Now, Jim Rickards, editor of the independent financial newsletter Strategic Intelligence and New York Times bestselling author,
00:52:55.180is warning about a coming event that could elevate this governmental surveillance to a terrifying new level.
00:53:01.260In fact, some of the guests I've had on The War Room believe that the government will soon expand their powers to track our every move.
00:53:08.640If we say the wrong things on social media, donate to the wrong causes, buy firearms, or even vote MAGA,
00:53:15.680the government may be able to shut us out of our bank accounts.
00:53:19.680I can't say for sure if this will happen, but it's an interesting and dire warning.
00:53:25.200Fortunately, Jim Rickards, an American patriot and friend of mine,
00:53:28.200has made it his mission to educate us on what he believes is coming
00:53:31.940and how to protect yourself from the possibility of programmable money.
00:53:37.520Watch Jim's warning video now, before it's censored like I've been in the past.
00:53:45.300That's RickardsWarRoom.com now to see the video.
00:53:48.760Hey, War Room. Hope you're all doing well.
00:53:52.400My name is Trevor Comstock. I'm one of the co-creators of Sacred Human.
00:53:55.740And I wanted to share just a little bit more about our brand for those who may not know of us yet.
00:54:00.200But about six months ago, we decided to launch Sacred Human with really the simple mission being to provide American-made natural supplements
