00:07:23.280You're one of the grassroots leaders and you've worked so hard on this.
00:07:26.600Give us your assessment or observations about this 30-point blowout when nobody,
00:07:30.340I mean, the whole lazy Washington media is absolutely blown away by this.
00:07:34.500What are your observations on it, ma'am?
00:07:36.140Oh, it was spectacular. We have spent so much time and talent and treasure working through
00:07:48.040these elections, and especially in Dallas County. In Dallas County, we turned out like
00:07:53.720rock stars. We had an epic turnout, far more so than we did in 2022, and it shows.
00:08:03.640It absolutely shows. In fact, in early voting, we had we beat the Democrats in turnout three out of the five days in early voting.
00:08:12.580And that's unheard of here in Dallas County.
00:08:16.320Yeah, you know, Dallas, I think Dallas and Travis, where Austin is only two counties, along with Kennedy, which has like nine people voting down there on the Gulf of America, are the only two.
00:08:28.420Those are the two big ones we lost. But the spreads were very small.
00:08:33.620He had to carry those in big numbers. And you guys able to close that down.
00:08:39.380What did it take? Why were you able to turn out this vote for Ken Paxton, particularly given all the money that Cornett spent and particularly in Dallas?
00:08:47.440He needed he needed really huge numbers in Dallas to overcome some of the rural communities.
00:08:53.320How did you guys actually get the vote out for Paxton?
00:08:55.540You know, a couple of key things is that we have got to modernize.
00:09:03.180And historically, Dallas County has not done well in that area.
00:09:12.100We ensured that we had lots of communication.
00:09:15.500And I think the other thing that was really helpful is that we had a separate primary.
00:09:20.880And so every location that we had judges at, we had Republican judges and Republican clerks, which increased voter security, voter secure thoughts and information on feeling like their vote's going to matter.
00:09:40.080Because when they went to the voting booth, it was a Republican judge and Republican clerks that were serving Republicans, just as it should be.
00:09:50.880how was that was that do you recruit specifically for that did you realize that was going to be an
00:09:57.060issue because i know you know melissa katz and some other people are judges and and they do a
00:10:02.080lot of training did you guys realize early on that was going to be an issue and that if you
00:10:06.120wanted to have really strong turnout you had to make sure people their votes were secure so you
00:10:10.640actually recruited folks to be judges uh and to be recorders and then you trained them all
00:10:16.580Oh, yeah, this is a Herculean effort. And I have a fantastic team here in Dallas County that works the elections. And we had to recruit a judge and multiple clerks per location. And on election day, it was like 280 some locations. And so it was a big, big effort.
00:10:37.300But when you train them well, and you've got really good organization skills, it was very smooth, very, very smooth.
00:10:44.600Unlike other elections where there was a lot of drama around the machines, there were lots of drama in other areas, this one went really well.
00:10:55.460And as the Republican chairwoman, I worked directly with the election administrator, and we got some things done at Central Count.
00:11:03.440that's where all the votes go back to right that has not yet been done in dallas county
00:11:08.420to secure our elections so how did somebody inside of the um go ahead uh how did you get
00:11:19.240but how did you recruit these people when in particularly in dallas because we were up in
00:11:23.580north of dallas for a couple of months in the tv ads on local news cable every night just the
00:11:30.380Recording negative ads against Ken Paxson were unbelievable.
00:11:35.040They were vicious, and there was just so much of them.
00:11:37.180How did you go out and recruit people given the amount of negative ads that were out there?
00:11:43.460You know, because we have seriously committed precinct chairs and committed volunteers, because all this is volunteer work, right?
00:11:51.100The people that are recruiting our election judges, it's a volunteer team.
00:11:56.560and they run our election integrity committee here in Dallas County. And they just went to
00:12:02.880work calling everybody they knew. We did lots of email campaigns, lots of texting campaigns.
00:12:08.720We had great trainings at the Dallas County Republican Party, in addition to the trainings
00:12:13.540that were down at the Dallas County Election Department. And it's really with passion that we
00:12:20.500love our county. We love our state. And we all know that as goes Texas, as goes this nation,
00:12:26.560and we were literally at a tipping point. This was it for us. We fought so hard to make sure
00:12:32.180that we had separate primaries. That is a huge key that we used to do all the time.
00:12:39.660And that has changed over the last 10 years. And we want to ensure that Republicans feel good
00:12:45.240about showing up at the polls. Tell me about Tallarico. They are saying that it's going to
00:12:51.540cost hundreds of millions of dollars. This is a huge mistake. You've got a very flawed candidate.
00:12:56.020Talk to me about your assessment of Tallarico in the general election.
00:14:03.920Tammy Brown Rodriguez, social media and where they go to your website to find out about trafficking and about Dallas County Republicans, ma'am.

00:16:24.480Do you think the U.S. currently has enough leverage to keep Iran from pursuing its ambitions with this Persian Gulf Strait authority and its desire to control traffic through the Strait of Hormuz long term?0.55
00:16:40.300No. Frankly, the Iranians have controlled the traffic through the Strait of Hormuz since February 28th when we started this war.0.91
00:16:48.380And predictably, the response to that war was for them to close the strait.0.95
00:16:52.940As long as Iran is geographically located where it is, which is right around the strait,0.88
00:16:58.140it will have the capacity to attack shipping through the Strait of Hormuz.0.59
00:17:02.800Unless and until the United States decide to end its capacity to do so through military force,0.90
00:17:09.360which requires the occupation of large swaths of Iran, Iran is going to have the capability to do this.0.92
00:17:14.740So the president can say the strait is open.0.99
00:17:16.840The president can say that international waters are international waters.0.98
00:17:20.960The Iranians have a different idea.1.00
00:17:22.940And so far, they've been able to dictate the terms.0.97
00:20:20.080He said if he has to increase economic warfare,
00:20:24.960If he has to go kinetic again, they're drawing up different target sets.
00:20:30.040Some are for additional military targets and industrial-based targets.
00:20:35.560Others, quote-unquote, some that are hard to get to.
00:20:38.860Also, they're looking at basically their infrastructure also.
00:20:42.300So the military has a wide range of options here.
00:20:45.400And so I would stay tuned in this space.
00:20:47.000But I think hearing it from the president is always best.
00:20:50.080And that's why I love it when he does those cabinet meetings.
00:20:53.540and he goes around the table, they talk, get up to date,
00:20:57.720and then he takes any and all questions from the media,
00:21:00.540which I think he handles very straightforwardly.
00:21:02.860Clearly, the interest of the America First and the MAGA movement
00:21:06.900is to wrap this thing up, get an off-ramp, wrap this up,
00:21:10.620make sure they can't get a nuclear weapon,
00:21:12.780figure out a deal that parties can live with,
00:21:16.960and then come back here to hemispheric defense.
00:21:19.380lost in all the avalanche of news yesterday, including the race in Texas, what was going on
00:21:26.600with these deals, etc. The Flavio Bolsonaro went to the Oval Office. Remember, Lula was there
00:21:35.660about two or three weeks ago. We covered that extensively. And as we said, that meeting did not
00:21:41.680go well. Lula, they didn't invite the press in. Lula kind of changed up the order of battle
00:21:47.700So afterwards, after he kind of just left the White House, I think unexpectedly or quickly, he goes back to the to the Brazilian.
00:21:57.920Remember, we had Neal McCabe outside right with all the international media, the Brazilian media.
00:22:02.920They just kind of packed up. They got the word. They packed up.
00:22:05.180They headed over to the Brazilian embassy, I think it was.
00:22:07.960And Lula gave a press conference there, didn't have a joint event with the president, didn't make himself available to the White House media.
00:22:15.320We had our reporter there with a list of questions, went back and gave an interview at the Brazilian embassy and was not quite a complimentary of the president, particularly regarding the Iranian war.
00:22:28.640I don't think that sat very well with the president of the United States.
00:22:32.340Flavio, who is leading Bolsonaro in the polls, although everything is very close down there on the presidential election they're having this fall, came yesterday.
00:22:42.680And there's some great photos if we can put those up.
00:22:45.740We've got Alan Doss Santos here to explain it all to us.
00:22:48.500Can you give us how did this get set up?
00:22:52.460It's quite extraordinary not that you have heads of state, although even the Lula meeting was not a head of state.
00:22:58.100They said he came. It was on a personal meeting with the president because we cover all these.
00:23:02.720There were no flags. He came to a different entrance.
00:23:06.560It was very low keyed about his entrance and his exit.
00:23:09.160In fact, he kind of left when nobody knew it. So it wasn't an official state visit.
00:23:12.220He wasn't, they didn't offer up to stay in the Blair House.
00:23:16.320It was a personal visit, but I know it didn't sit well with a lot of people.
00:24:59.680I want to go back to something you just said that's very important.
00:25:02.480And, folks, we deal with this a lot because obviously we monitor what's going on in Brazil.
00:25:05.800We're huge supporters of the Bolsonaro family.
00:25:08.880But the media down there is so one-sided.
00:25:12.160If people think the United States media is bad, you ain't seen nothing.
00:25:15.100In Brazil, they're actually making the case that Flapio invited himself.
00:25:20.180That's not the way the White House works.
00:25:22.340You don't invite yourself and you show up.
00:25:24.240You have to have an invitation from the secretary of state and the president to come.
00:25:28.260And that was a and here's what's so important.
00:25:31.300The last couple of days have just been intense, not just with what was going on in Texas, what's going on in the Senate.
00:25:37.960The president had the entire day he was doing on Monday, doing the Memorial Day activity for our honored dead.
00:25:44.320But also in Iran, there's so many developments happening in the war as he's trying to negotiate a deal.
00:25:50.040So it's absurd to think that Flavio invited himself when he showed up.
00:25:55.060But the media down there is trying to spin it that way.
00:25:57.640This was an invitation from the Secretary of State and the President of the United States to come to the White House.
00:26:02.580And yes, I'm sure they talked about those two terrorist organizations who Lula, you know, unfortunately looks like he's in business with some of these guys.
00:28:29.100Philip Patrick is going to join us tomorrow night. We're going to talk about the turbulence
00:28:32.220in capital markets, the bond market. Also, we're going to talk about physical gold.
00:28:37.440Gold is a hedge, all of it. You can get information on that. There's two ways. One is
00:28:43.280quite simple, or they're both simple, but this is a very quick and dirty. It is take your phone
00:28:49.140and a text Bannon, B-A-N-N-O-N at 989898. You get the ultimate guide for investing in gold and
00:28:55.520precious metals in the age of Trump. No obligation, totally free. All the information from Birch Gold
00:29:02.300is with no obligation. You get that. You get access to Philip Patrick. You can walk through
00:29:06.240all the different methodologies, 401ks, IRAs, tax deferment, all of it. Check it out. Also,
00:29:12.440for first-time purchasers and investors, possibility with a qualifying purchase that
00:29:17.940you can get rebates up to $10,000, but you got to talk to Philip Patrick and his team all about
00:29:23.580that. It's not a reason to buy gold, but it might be a nice reason if you believe it's time to a
00:29:29.620nice reason, a nice incentive to think about it. Also, the end of the dollar empire, we started
00:29:34.580five years ago. Part of it, as you remember, we sent the team from Birch Gold down to the Rio
00:29:40.820Reset, which was, wait for it, Lula. He always turns up, doesn't he? Not a friend of the United
00:29:48.100States. Remember we had Philip Patrick and the team down there live and they were saying, hey,
00:29:52.360What the BRICS nations were doing, led by Lula and working with the Chinese Communist Party, who is Lula's partner, they were trying to make sure that they could try to break the dollar, particularly the petrodollar.
00:30:04.740And what they were doing is sidebar deals, you know, direct bilat trade deals that would be settled in the currency of the country, not the U.S. dollar, as a potential to weaken the U.S. dollar as the prime reserve currency.
00:30:18.340You can understand that and learn all about it in The End of the Dollar Empire.
00:31:48.160The hemispheric defense of President Trump, which is a brilliant geoeconomic and geostrategic strategy,
00:31:53.820going from the Arctic and Greenland all the way down to Cuba and the Gulf of America and the Caribbean,
00:32:00.480and then Central America and South America, all the way out to the vast Pacific,
00:32:04.140to the three island chain as our 19th century giants that ran this country understood that
00:32:10.720the strategic pivot of the united states the strategic border of the united states
00:32:14.340are american underlying american territories in the western pacific in the central pacific
00:32:23.400that is the hemispheric defense of our country and things change when that happens and it won't0.52
00:32:29.960change while Lula's in our backyard. Brother Alan dos Santos, the floor is yours, sir.0.87
00:32:39.180So I was saying, Steve, that Flávio Bolsonaro is not facing this situation as a regular election.
00:32:47.340He is trying to save his country. His dad is not arrested. He was kidnapped by state,
00:32:54.540by the government, because there is no law that could put Bolsonaro in jail.
00:32:59.280They accused Bolsonaro as a coup d'etat, but Bolsonaro was in Orlando, in Florida, where I live
00:33:06.960right now. So he was here. How can you do a coup d'etat visiting Mickey Mouse? So this is so
00:33:13.560ridiculous. This sounds ridiculous, but it's serious. Flavio is trying to save the country0.98
00:33:19.160Because the drug cartel can easily corrupt judges and they can be released easily while a lot of people are in exile, including Eduardo Bolsonaro here in the United States.
00:33:31.040So it's a very dangerous situation for Brazil, because if we do not take Lula out, we're going to be a target of all three countries.
00:33:40.780Argentina is willing to fight all this drug cartel.
00:33:45.220El Salvador is willing to fight this drug cartel.
00:34:14.740But they are fighting strongly not for the people.
00:34:17.580But for these drug cartels, which helps a lot of the globalist agenda, and you said very well, Bolsonaro is the enemy of this globalist agenda.
00:34:29.440And Lula is being helped not by the United States, but the globalists, which are here in the United States.
00:34:37.080Lula is a friend of all radicals Democrats you ever imagined.
00:34:42.000Imagine the worst Democrat you have here in the United States.
00:35:09.240And then can you explain the one that Lula has ties to?
00:35:12.440So, the CV is for the Portuguese words, Comando Vermelho, it's like a Red Commander.
00:35:21.200They were created right after the military regime that we used to have in Brazil.
00:35:30.160So once leftists and criminals were in jail, they created this group called the CV, the0.53
00:35:37.680Red Commander. And the PCC was created right after Lula created the São Paulo Forum. Both of them
00:35:45.360were created by leftists, by Marxists. They use all the leftist words that people are using to
00:35:53.780use, unfortunately, in schools right now. They're using about these guys, these criminals, saying
00:36:00.500we have human rights, we want justice, we want fair justice, and so forth.
00:36:07.540So all these two different drug cartels, they were created by the leftists.
00:36:14.860And then, since they grew in the country, they spread in the whole country,
00:36:21.080the PCC, which was created in Sao Paulo, it is way more well-organized.
00:36:28.32050% of the cocaine in Europe is being sent by the PCC through Brazil.0.64
00:36:38.440And the Red Commander controls more Rio de Janeiro in the north of the country, northeast of the country, northeast.0.87
00:36:48.760And the difference between them is just how they operate.0.91
00:36:53.060PCC is more organized, but both of them are connected to FARC, the F-A-R-C in Colombia.0.61
00:37:02.780They are fed by the Iranian regime, and they are connected to the Chinese too.0.86
00:37:09.160So it is complicated to use the law against them because in Brazil, we do not have a death penalty, for example.0.93
00:37:20.260people in Brazil can just stay in jail for 40 years.
00:37:23.980And if you behave well, you read books and so forth,
00:37:26.940you can leave the jail in 10, 15, or maximum 20 years.
00:37:32.740So it's hard to fight against these drug cartels
00:37:35.620because they can easily live inside the prison
00:37:39.020and still control all the cocaine in the whole country.
00:37:46.220And our security system is not that strong.
00:37:49.440So all the criminals, they can use phone inside the prison.
00:37:53.840It's not like here in the United States.
00:37:56.360And they can easily buy judges and even cops close to the prison in a matter of creating companies, do money laundry through these companies, using influencers.
00:38:14.200And it's hard to catch them in their crime.
00:38:17.340Right now, for example, there is an investigation in Brazil, which puts the PCC, which is this group, it is connected to Deolane Bezerra, as said in the beginning of the show, she was supporting Lula and recording videos with Lula.
00:38:34.640She was arrested a few days ago in Italy by Interpol.
00:38:42.680Yes. And she's working with Marcola, which is the head of the PCC. And Lula is connected with them.
00:38:53.340Hang on. Get the audience up to date in that regard to the election that's coming up this fall. It's Lula versus Flavio. Where do we stand right now? I understand Flavio was leading in the polling a couple of weeks ago.
00:39:12.680Yeah, Flavio was leading all the polls or technically a draw, but this is the first time they don't say Flavio is far away from winning.
00:39:27.760This is the first time they say a right-wing candidate is close to win.
00:39:32.860So for us, Brazilians, we see these polls and say, OK, if they are saying we are leading or close draw, I do believe he's winning by far.
00:39:43.460Because all these companies in Brazil that they make these researches and polls, they are also connected with all the groups that are supported by Lula.
00:42:46.920I think it's the 15th through the 18th, two or three days in Vegas.
00:42:51.560They're going to kick off on the 15th with a screening of Jim Caviezel playing Jair Bolsonaro in a film that's in English called Dark Horse.
00:43:02.920So they're going to premiere it there.
00:43:05.040I think it will be available commercially in the United States later, either in July or August.
00:43:11.040I don't think that's been worked out yet with the distribution.
00:43:13.380But Jim Caviezel, one of the finest actors in the country, playing Bolsonaro, and it's very eerie, just embodies Bolsonaro in an amazing film.
00:43:24.120And so if you the parallels between the United States and Brazil in this regard, particularly on voter fraud, is pretty extraordinary.
00:43:31.640Tomorrow, we've got so much to get into.
00:43:33.320There are in Georgia, I think that the Justice Department is now starting to put out requests, maybe called subpoenas for election workers in Georgia in 2020 to come in and start being interviewed and or testifying.
00:43:50.220This thing in Georgia is really heating up. We're going to get to that.
00:43:53.000Also, you know, our favorite newspaper, Rupert Murdoch's Wall Street Journal, particularly the editorial section, really rips on MAGA, the War Room Posse, and Ken Paxson's supporters and what they call Ken Paxson Republicans.
00:44:08.700Big editorial. I'll get into that tomorrow and break it all down.
00:44:12.600Huge movement in this artificial intelligence executive order.
00:44:17.080Kind of Politico does a whole history of how this evolved, what happened in the past going forward.
00:44:22.760Joe Allen's going to join me in the morning for that.
00:44:25.220We've got an incredible show already backed up wall to wall.
00:44:29.140And then tomorrow night, of course, Philip Patrick.
00:44:31.240Remember, your homework lesson for Philip Patrick is to get to the end of the dollar empire.
