00:00:00.000 admitting that he's meddling in the midterms before a single race is called.
00:00:04.640 Yes, preemptive meddling, folks.
00:00:07.720 Today, the president said that he instructed his Justice Department to file a lawsuit in Alaska
00:00:12.800 to block the certification of the state's Senate results.
00:00:16.440 Only, yes, only if incumbent Republican Dan Sullivan loses by a narrow margin.
00:00:23.520 The DOJ argues the inclusion of another Dan Sullivan on the same ballot could siphon votes,
00:00:28.800 writing, quote, it is vital that defendants not certify any election result that may be impacted
00:00:35.080 by voter confusion. In other words, Donald Trump and his Department of Justice think voters in
00:00:40.800 Alaska are stupid and don't know who they're voting for. That's not only offensive, it's also 1.00
00:00:47.220 historically inaccurate. This is the same state that reelected its other Republican senator,
00:00:52.840 Lisa Murkowski, in a historic writing campaign. And yes, they knew how to spell Murkowski.
00:00:58.800 Alaska's Democratic Senate nominee, Mary Peltola, made the same point exclusively to Nicole Wallace. Folks, listen.
00:01:08.700 It's sending a message that Dan Sullivan does not believe that Alaskans are sophisticated enough to know exactly who they're voting for and what the implications of their vote is.
00:01:21.320 This is clearly corruption. This is clearly a very desperate attempt to cling to power, using his allies in Washington, D.C. to rig the system even further.
00:01:33.100 Do you believe that this was just a genuine good faith effort by the other Dan Sullivan, who was a park ranger, didn't get involved in politics other than voting for the Democratic candidate that he would like to help?
00:01:43.880 Do you think it's a genuine, sincere effort to run for Senate?
00:01:46.940 I can't know that, but I can tell you that in California, we get a bajillion candidates on our ballot.
00:01:52.480 In Florida, the same thing happened, and it was a Republican who committed this sort of act,
00:01:58.520 and they found someone with a name, and Democrats were outraged
00:02:01.580 because it was a deliberate attempt to mislead voters for the two people with the same name.
00:02:06.300 No, but did Democrats try to get that invalidated?
00:02:10.060 Yes, they did, actually. That's what I was about to say.
00:02:12.300 You cut me off. You actually stopped me, and I was about to say that.
00:02:16.040 So they demanded this person resign, and they couldn't do that because the election was already certified.
00:02:21.420 So Miami-Dade County opened up an investigation, and they found that this person actually did it in exchange for some value.
00:02:27.840 That's a different scenario.
00:02:30.620 I feel like, Joe, you're invalidating your argument.
00:02:33.220 No, no, no.
00:02:34.020 No, no.
00:02:34.720 He has a common-sense argument about whether it's a common-sense argument.
00:02:39.000 This person did not coincidentally wake up.
00:02:41.520 Do I ever get to ask and finish a statement without everyone interrupting me?
00:02:46.720 Excuse me, Joe.
00:02:47.580 Every time I get interrupted, there was metadata on the press release from a Democratic operative.
00:02:52.300 That's pretty consistent with someone trying to manipulate this election by putting someone who has the same name in.
00:02:58.600 Are you going to vote for Abdul El-Sid or Mike Rogers in the midterms?
00:03:01.620 Mike Rogers.
00:03:02.560 What?
00:03:03.620 I just have no trust in the guy.
00:03:07.960 He's got too much of outside help coming in from other countries.
00:03:13.520 It just doesn't sound right to me.
00:03:15.840 What do you mean by that?
00:03:18.380 They plant terrorists all the time.
00:03:21.400 Who knows how he was raised? 0.77
00:03:23.320 Even though he was raised here, he could be a la la and blow up everybody when he gets in the Senate. 0.94
00:03:30.040 Who knows?
00:03:30.920 I mean, I'm just saying that.
00:03:32.720 The arc, though, has now gone to where Donald Trump is seized this tight race in Michigan and he does this, the Muslim card.
00:03:42.380 Right. And he why does he do it? Because he's had success with it.
00:03:45.700 And when you saw that voter there at the gas station, right, you could tell that her zone had been flooded with all this misinformation.
00:03:53.420 And it's the same thing that Donald Trump started in 2011.
00:03:56.740 And the Republican Party of Paul Ryan trying to stop it there in 2015, they did nothing.
00:04:00.900 they've been overtaken by it completely. The Republican Party now is that voter in Michigan
00:04:06.580 making those types of jokes. So here's the thing. The moral arc of history bends towards bigotry,
00:04:11.860 right? This is America. It's not new, right? And I push back on this a little bit, Luke.
00:04:18.400 That lady didn't have to be convinced to feel this way. She always felt this way. She saw El
00:04:23.840 Syed, and immediately she thought of every single terrible stereotype that this country has promoted
00:04:29.960 about muslim people about people from the middle east from hollywood to television to news reporting
00:04:34.380 for the last 25 years and basically for all of our lifetimes so i'm not surprised by this what i am
00:04:40.060 surprised by is that the republicans actually think that your bigotry is more important than
00:04:44.880 your bills and right now it is not we are seeing across the country that people are way more
00:04:50.060 concerned with paying their bills sitting on the side of their bed on a friday night saying how am
00:04:53.900 i going to pay for monday how am i going to get gas in the car how can i get clothes for my kids
00:04:57.460 in school, they're more concerned about that than bigotry. That's why I think this is dumb, 0.98
00:05:01.240 because he has won this bell a lot and people have stopped listening. 0.94
00:05:04.340 Some people are, you were the one that was telling me about this, but I think some people
00:05:09.240 are more concerned about their bills than bigotry. But it seems to me that there's a lot of people
00:05:13.720 concerned about bigotry in this country. And I saw that.
00:05:18.040 The culture, the culture.
00:05:18.680 This is a cultural issue to the point that Jason just laid out. That clip, and then there's another
00:05:23.760 clip where, um, Al Sabat, again, at the gas station in middle of Michigan, our colleague
00:05:28.500 and someone else, um, essentially like calls El Fayed a terrorist. And I was in my office
00:05:35.460 like, hold the hell up. People don't even have hoods on anymore. They used to have hoods
00:05:41.840 on. Now they're just at the gas station with sunglasses on the middle of the day. And so
00:05:45.840 I think that the idea that Muslim people just have to deal with this, and Arab Americans,
00:05:54.880 because to be clear, all Arab Americans are also not Muslim America.
00:05:58.740 Please educate yourself.
00:06:00.780 I want to play Mr. El-Sayed in his own words, if we could, just for a moment.
00:06:07.000 And I really hope y'all listen to the man in his own words.
00:06:15.840 My name is Abdul. It means servant. I pray every day. I reflect on my role in this life,
00:06:22.320 on this earth, how we leave it better than we found it. To serve God, to serve our neighbors.
00:06:27.440 All across Michigan, families pray. They feel hopeless. Faith is a thing there's just too
00:06:33.220 little of in Washington. We don't have faith in our future. We don't have faith that we can
00:06:37.480 actually fix things. So yeah, we need a few more people of faith in Washington.
00:06:41.440 I'm Abdul Al-Sayan, man of faith.
00:06:44.160 That's a good thing.
00:06:45.100 And I approve this message.
00:06:47.640 If his commercial started, my name is Martin.
00:06:51.600 My name is Joshua.
00:06:54.060 My name is Mark.
00:06:58.740 The response would be different.
00:07:00.860 Absolutely.
00:07:02.480 If his name was, if he were a white man in that commercial,
00:07:09.200 it would be one of the best as 100 of the cycle a democrat showing their faith oh my god be in
00:07:17.440 tears they would speak about him the way they speak about tala rica exactly exactly so y'all
00:07:22.420 out there need to get a grip because the man tells you his name it means servant and he wants
00:07:31.800 to serve the people of his state so why does that make you upset why are you bothered by that why
00:07:38.000 you concerned if someone wants to help your behind right yeah yeah i said a canadian friends that

00:09:07.380 This is a really serious matter.
00:09:08.920 Obviously, the integrity of the upcoming election is of paramount importance, and we want to make sure that it's secure.
00:09:14.420 So could you give me a comment on what we just got on camera there?
00:09:16.720 It seemed like you were ready to register me as an alleged non-citizen.
00:09:20.200 Any comment, please?
00:09:22.280 It's Saturday, 24 October, year of alert, 2026.
00:09:25.860 The early voting thing starts at Michigan Day in person.
00:09:28.660 10 days that shook the world tomorrow brazil tuesday israel next to tuesday a week the united
00:09:36.300 states of america all of these are essentially dead heats and obviously the outcome of these
00:09:42.820 will be enormously important for the world as it is steve cortez bigotry over bills brother
00:09:49.360 you spent so much time up and we're gonna have steve wallace is going to join us in a moment
00:09:54.400 to talk about the reality of what the Muslims are doing in Florida, Texas, all these other states. 1.00
00:10:01.600 Joe Haas is going to join us about the corruption you see right there in Arizona, California, 1.00
00:10:05.720 just up in your grill, right up in your face, as we've been saying.
00:10:08.860 But let's go back to something you've been all over.
00:10:12.120 And quite frankly, you've been the cutting edge of this, of bringing to Michiganders' attention
00:10:16.560 that Abdul Mohammed El Saeed is not just sitting there.
00:10:21.940 He's not a choir boy, right?
00:10:23.120 Talk to me about what you saw.
00:10:25.260 Now, MSNBC, this is all they're covering, is Michiganders at gas stations saying, hey, the price of gas is high, but I'm not putting a terrorist, I'm not going to put a Muslim Brotherhood designee in the U.S. Senate.
00:10:38.420 Your thoughts, sir?
00:10:39.760 Well, I hope they keep doing those interviews because I think they're going to help us.
00:10:43.060 By the way, just as a quick aside, the fact that Michael Steele was at one point the chairman of the Republican Party doesn't say very much for the Republican Party, does it, Steve?
00:10:50.720 But getting to the matter at hand here, there is nothing bigoted about taking a rational look at a worldview that is antithetical to the American way of life, that is totally incompatible with Western civilization, and saying it doesn't make sense for us to invite into this country masses of people who subscribe to that worldview.
00:11:10.880 And look, anyone's ideology should be subject to scrutiny.
00:11:15.380 Steve, you and I are Catholics.
00:11:17.300 Okay, the Catholic faith is properly subjected to scrutiny constantly in our society.
00:11:23.580 Every American has every right to say, is your faith logical?
00:11:26.980 Does your worldview make sense?
00:11:28.280 Is your agenda compatible with the American way of life?
00:11:30.900 That is a proper and necessary process, okay? 0.99
00:11:34.280 And we are applying that to Islam. 1.00
00:11:36.380 And what we are saying is it is not compatible. 1.00
00:11:38.400 And by the way, we don't have to guess. 1.00
00:11:39.760 When we look at what has happened in Dearborn, Michigan, when we look at what has happened on a much larger scale in Minneapolis, and then when we see what's gone on on an even bigger scale in Europe, the trend, the lesson is clear that Western civilization is under assault wherever you allow a mass influx of Muslim migrants into this country. 0.91
00:11:58.660 And here's the thing, Steve, this isn't just some outlier opinion that crazy right-wingers like Bannon and Cortez have. 0.85
00:12:03.820 No, I am polling this constantly, and I just polled a state of Arizona where there's actually not a large Muslim presence.
00:12:09.500 But in the swing state of Arizona, very consistent with my other polling in places like Michigan, only 17% of Americans said that Muslim migration is good for this country.
00:12:19.620 That's it. Only 17%.
00:12:21.620 And that's in an immigrant-heavy border state, but the good citizens of Arizona are sensible enough to say so.
00:12:26.920 and we're not going to be intimidated any longer. We're not going to let the corporate
00:12:30.220 media intimidate us. We don't care if they call us bigots. We're not bigots. The reality is
00:12:35.240 Abdul al-Sayed has significant ties, material ties to the Muslim Brotherhood, which is a 0.88
00:12:40.860 terrorist organization. Now, is he a terrorist? I don't know, but I know he sympathizes with
00:12:45.920 terrorists. I know he pals around with terrorists. I know that he campaigned in Michigan. He proudly,
00:12:52.080 defiantly campaigned with Hassan Piker, who constantly praises terrorists and who has made
00:12:57.640 a fortune within the United States, spewing nothing but vitriol and hatred for this country,
00:13:02.720 the very country that has allowed him to become personally successful. All this is on the record.
00:13:06.900 All this is indisputable. These are facts. And so I deal in facts. You deal in facts. I went on the
00:13:11.980 ground in Dearborn and showed the factual reality of what has happened to a city that effectively 0.98
00:13:17.400 has Sharia law that has been overtaken by Muslim mass migration. And I think there's a warning 0.99
00:13:21.820 sign to the rest of America. Don't let the rest of Michigan become Dearborn. Don't let the rest
00:13:26.640 of America become what has happened to Michigan. And we have every right, every prerogative,
00:13:32.140 I would argue every obligation to use those kinds of sensible filters upon who gets allowed into 0.97
00:13:37.500 this country as newcomers. You saw in Arizona, they're trying to sign up everybody. What Steve's
00:13:42.900 talking about i wouldn't even i don't even raise it to the level of a faith i think it's a radical
00:13:47.720 political ideology you can see this in dearborn and you see you can see it from uh el saeed i
00:13:53.380 mean this is what the muslim brotherhood tried to install uh globally in in islam make it turn it
00:13:58.840 into political islam and since they came uh since they are you know formed in egypt decades and 0.99
00:14:05.540 decades and decades ago been nothing but a nightmare and uh i understand the washington
00:14:12.000 Post and talk about a story about Mike Rogers and all this, made the comment to Rogers' campaign,
00:14:17.580 well, there's so many different branches of the Muslim Brotherhood. They run schools,
00:14:20.660 they run charities. It's all crap. It's a terrorist organization that is set up to take 1.00
00:14:25.960 down the West. And it's pure insanity for the voters of Michigan to send Abdul Mohammed El 0.97
00:14:33.340 Said to the United States Senate. And now you're starting to see the impact this is having on the
00:14:39.140 races people focus on the coming uh 10 days 10 days that shook the world we're gonna go to uh
00:14:45.860 we're gonna talk about brazil we're gonna talk about israel we're gonna go to paris we're gonna
00:14:50.080 go throughout the united states all these massive elections that are all dead heat wisconsin next
00:14:57.080 as president trump continues to fight for this great country one of his most important actions
00:15:04.560 could soon impact the wealth of millions of hard-working Americans like you.
00:15:09.820 Of course, you won't hear about this in the mainstream media or on the nightly news.
00:15:15.040 They'll never admit Trump was right about anything.
00:15:18.460 But according to my dear friend and frequent war room guest, Jim Rickards,
00:15:22.760 President Trump has a plan that could unlock an estimated $2.7 trillion in American resources,
00:15:29.300 creating opportunities that many investors may not even realize exist.
00:15:34.300 Jim recently put together a new presentation explaining what he believes is happening,
00:15:39.000 why it matters, and what Americans should be watching right now.

00:16:09.260 Bombshell October surprise in Wisconsin.
00:16:13.540 David Crotley, now the Dem nominee for governor,
00:16:17.000 he made a dirty backroom deal to exit the primary race for that office.
00:16:22.780 The price? $250,000 and a job for his wife. 0.99
00:16:28.420 Daily Wire just broke this appalling story.
00:16:31.160 an insider whistleblower, provided evidence that Crowley exited the highly contested primary race
00:16:38.740 at the behest of party insiders making corrupt backroom promises. He then later re-entered the
00:16:47.020 primary in similarly strange circumstances and secured the nomination. But Wisconsin isn't for
00:16:55.200 sale. It sure looks like laws were broken. At the least, Crowley has major questions to answer,
00:17:02.480 and I'm told there's more to come. I'm going to be very clear about something.
00:17:07.280 Nobody called me or anything like that to ask me to step out of this race.
00:17:11.960 Okay, so Cortez, this is, you know, the great state of Wisconsin. I don't know if federal
00:17:17.520 authorities are involved yet or not, but he denies it. He says, I didn't call anybody. It
00:17:21.980 didn't happen. Your thoughts? Well, the exact opposite is true. As usual, David Crowley is
00:17:27.440 corrupt and he is a liar. He's also a puppet, by the way, of the Democrat establishment of 1.00
00:17:34.120 Wisconsin. Because think about this, Steve, the sequence of this. The Democrat establishment,
00:17:38.160 they wanted to clear the way for their preferred candidate, Sarah Rodriguez, to beat Francesca 0.98
00:17:42.720 Hong, the communist, because they didn't want her. They thought she was too radical to win. So they
00:17:46.780 literally pulled, like a puppet, they pulled Crowley out of the race. They offered him some 0.98
00:17:52.340 scraps, $250,000 and a job for his wife. Think of that, by the way. This man who wants to be
00:17:57.460 governor, if he was willing to do this for $250,000, what will he do for millions of dollars?
00:18:02.600 But they pulled him from the race. He obeyed. He acquiesced. This is important too, Steve. 0.79
00:18:07.180 They stiffed him. They didn't pay him the $250,000. And then when their plan, when their
00:18:12.700 concocted manipulation of the primary didn't work because Rodriguez was doing terribly against Hong
00:18:17.980 and it was clear that Hong was going to win, what did they do with their puppet Crowley?
00:18:22.080 They put him back in. They put him back into the race where he then barely won the primary and he
00:18:27.000 is now the nominee. So here's the thing. He gave a very tepid, very vague denial about this report
00:18:33.800 coming out. He's going to have to answer much more explicitly on the record. And my advice to Crowley
00:18:38.560 is you better be careful. You should come clean and explain what you did because this happened.
00:18:44.420 We have proof. There is evidence of this. There is more evidence to come about this. This is just
00:18:49.900 the first salvo. And this is a dirty backroom deal. Steve, Wisconsin cannot be for sale. This
00:18:58.200 man does not have the ethics. He does not have the principles. He does not have the smarts to be
00:19:04.140 the governor of Wisconsin, and we have the proof. And thankfully, this dirty deal is being revealed
00:19:10.960 to the American people and to the people of Wisconsin. So I think this is a bombshell. I
00:19:16.520 think in a very tight race, you know, you said these races are tied. Most of these races are
00:19:20.340 tied. In a tight race, I believe this will be determinative. This will be the difference maker.
00:19:25.900 And anybody who was sitting on the fence, anybody who wasn't sure if they're going to vote at all 0.99
00:19:29.040 or which way they were going to vote, they're going to realize that David Crowley is a scumbag 1.00
00:19:34.900 and he's probably a criminal. 1.00
00:19:37.180 No, you know why? This shows you about the data centers.
00:19:39.880 I mean, this guy can be bought and paid for. There's no doubt about that.
00:19:44.140 Look right there in this breaking story. We'll make sure we push it hard.
00:19:49.120 Before I let you go, and also for the video in Arizona, why is she not under arrest?
00:19:54.740 Why are the authorities not on top of her immediately? 0.99
00:19:57.220 We've got to stop this crap. 0.99
00:19:58.580 This is how they're stealing elections. 1.00
00:20:00.620 This is how they're getting foreigners to vote. 1.00
00:20:02.540 This is how they're getting foreign nationals to vote. 0.80
00:20:04.940 Talk to me about the northern flank before I let you go on a Saturday.
00:20:08.000 Early voting starting, going all the way from Maine, New Hampshire.
00:20:10.540 Huge news in New Hampshire.
00:20:11.700 Supreme Court backs us up.
00:20:13.340 Students just can't flash a student ID and vote.
00:20:16.040 So things are starting to cut our way a little bit on the enforcement of these laws.
00:20:20.780 But you've got Maine.
00:20:21.600 You've got New Hampshire.
00:20:22.760 You've got obviously Michigan, the governor's race in Wisconsin.
00:20:26.420 You've got Minnesota.
00:20:27.720 Even, you know, President Trump says they're going to get involved in Alaska.
00:20:32.160 Is that northern flank?
00:20:33.400 How do you see it right now? 0.84
00:20:35.320 Look, I mean, all of these races are tight, so we can't be cocky in any of them.
00:20:38.520 But the momentum is clearly our way in all of those races that you just mentioned.
00:20:43.060 And I believe that if we work hard enough and if we really mobilize in these closing days,
00:20:47.900 and I believe people need to vote early.
00:20:49.760 By the way, that's part of mobilizing.
00:20:51.640 If we do that, we're going to win, I think, that entire northern flank.
00:20:55.980 And particularly on the Senate side, if we pick off Michigan and Minnesota, very achievable, both of those as flips into our column, then the math gets incredibly hard for the Democrats.
00:21:05.860 And even if they do have a good day in normally red states, in the lower Midwest and in the South, if we pick them off in the North, the odds are dramatically in our favor to hold.
00:21:16.480 I think we're going to hold both of those states. Both of those, by the way, getting back to our last conversation, have significant Muslim issues, significant Muslim threats to those societies in the case of Minnesota, scamming the great taxpayers of Minnesota at scale. 0.98
00:21:30.660 So let's not be afraid to continue to expose those very significant issues. 0.99
00:21:35.340 And then here in Wisconsin now, this new bombshell report in a tight race, this can absolutely be the difference maker.
00:21:42.160 I believe it will be. David Crowley has a lot of questions to answer.
00:21:46.600 We'll see how he answers them. But again, he's caught. OK, he's caught.
00:21:50.040 This is documented. There is evidence.
00:21:52.220 There is a whistleblower from a very high level within Democratic circles who was spurned over this entire dirty deal.
00:21:58.880 That's how this, these things often happen. In many ways, this is a criminal enterprise. I think
00:22:03.360 that's the reality and the people of Wisconsin deserve way better than that, Steve. By the way,
00:22:08.140 the Muslim situation in Maine, you may have a hold in with Collins there because of your great
00:22:12.440 reporting from Lewiston. The main, the main wires got breaking stories also today, all weekend on
00:22:18.920 this. So it's huge. Cortez, where do people go for all your content and where they go for social
00:22:24.440 media going to be putting things up all weekend on this very intense weekend particularly in the
00:22:29.880 northern flank where they go yeah saturday and sunday are not off day steve when you're this
00:22:34.780 close to decision day that's for sure so we will absolutely be posting like crazy please follow me
00:22:39.160 on the twitter i'm at steve cortez cortez with an s at the end and then you can also go to
00:22:43.700 cortesinvestigates.com we will of course be following this with cons all these stories but
00:22:48.280 particularly the Wisconsin one, really intensely all weekend long. Folks, stay mobilized, pray,
00:22:55.420 work, vote. We're going to win these races. We're going to hold and win. Politico's got a big story
00:23:00.720 about Hakeem Jeffries. I'll put it up next segment. Hakeem Jeffries is starting to temper,
00:23:06.520 hey, he's starting to tell his senior people, let's get reality check here on what's going to
00:23:11.080 happen in the House. So you see the momentum shifting, at least in certain states, to break
00:23:15.240 the blue wave or the blue tsunami. Steve Cortez, thank you so much. Appreciate you taking time
00:23:19.940 on Saturday to join us. Thank you. Steve Maxwell, talk to us. You've got this organization that
00:23:25.560 looks at local. You're very much of a grassroots guy. Here recently, you've come up with, I think,
00:23:30.480 a great kind of model of what's happening with Islam and in the state of Florida. But this is
00:23:34.760 really throughout the country. What do you got for us, sir? Well, as you said, our organization,
00:23:39.840 We have an investigative part of our organization.
00:23:43.320 We had a tip at a local small town here in central Florida to take a look at a purchase of property.
00:23:50.580 We began doing that investigation, Steve, and it led to nine properties that have been purchased in Lake Wells.
00:23:58.620 And then we did a deep dive with our team and our network.
00:24:01.880 And what we discovered is really what's happening throughout the state of Florida, throughout the nation.
00:24:06.260 Um, there's a land grab going on, uh, private funds, uh, predominantly cash, uh, under LLCs.
00:24:15.060 And then these LLCs are also tied to, uh, Islamic centers, uh, in these, in, in Lake
00:24:22.020 Wells and that particular investigation, there's three families tied up in about, uh, five,
00:24:27.280 seven States.
00:24:28.040 They're doing this in multiple States and really to understand what's happening, Steve,
00:24:32.860 I think the average citizen on the street, there's a lot of confusion on the whole Islam thing.
00:24:39.280 And what I found is, and if you'll bear with me a moment, if you ask the question on the religion side, how do I get to heaven?
00:24:46.700 You know, if I'm a Muslim, how do I get to heaven, eternal life if I'm a Christian? 0.75
00:24:51.900 That's the fundamental difference. 0.99
00:24:53.960 And if you'll bear with me, how a Muslim gets to heaven is, number one, there's only one guarantee. 1.00
00:25:00.020 We know what that is. 1.00
00:25:00.700 That's the radical side. 0.99
00:25:02.460 But there's another way to go, and it's you follow Muhammad as best you can. 0.95
00:25:08.520 And so what's the first thing he did? 0.90
00:25:10.640 He left America, he goes to Medina.
00:25:12.360 He becomes an immigrant.
00:25:14.080 So immigration is a big part of the Muslim belief system. 0.92
00:25:19.940 But then secondly, you can become a civilization jihadist and get really close to your eternal life, eternal destiny, if you can take over a foreign country. 0.83
00:25:32.460 So you have this situation where, tied back to what this investigation is about, they begin with starting to take buying property. 0.90
00:25:41.440 There's actually seven steps that the Muslim Brotherhood put together several years ago, and they're following that. 0.89
00:25:47.240 They're 35 years into their 100-year plan, and I can go through these seven steps, and I think you can begin to see what's happening around the nation. 0.98
00:25:54.100 i want to i want to get to the seven steps and maybe have to have you back on for that but i
00:26:00.020 want to go back to foreign money because this is the same situation in texas this is the same
00:26:05.700 situation in tennessee this is throughout the nation they have these llc's they're getting
00:26:09.920 money from foreign sources this is the this is they're getting the money from uh from pakistan
00:26:15.540 from qatar from uae from saudi arabia from turkey behind the scenes and they're buying property in
00:26:21.980 your situation they bought they purchased nine separate properties kind of under the radar and
00:26:28.340 then all of a sudden they become a major player in these small counties next thing you know you 0.90
00:26:32.200 got islamic center which is nothing more than a fort operating based for jihad sir right that's
00:26:37.920 right that's correct and this is happening in naples florida it's happening in lee county it's 0.66
00:26:41.660 happening in duval county it's happening in orange county it's happening all over the country but if
00:26:46.440 you'll notice they're really focused on texas and florida right now because they're such conservative
00:26:50.540 and powerful states on the other side.
00:26:53.140 So you're exactly right.
00:26:54.320 It's really skirting.
00:26:57.180 There's areas, we've turned this over to local officials.
00:26:59.800 Hang for a second, hang for a second.
00:27:01.200 They're conservative states that are the railhead of MAGA,
00:27:03.820 but most importantly, they have massive real estate.
00:27:07.380 Look, the only way, the reason this is happening
00:27:10.240 is that the business community is embracing this.
00:27:13.500 This is why we had Peter McElvain,
00:27:15.300 he went to Dallas over a year ago,
00:27:16.920 and he said, hey, the difference in London falling,
00:27:19.320 which it's fallen or in the process of falling Paris today we're going to have Ben Harnwell from
00:27:23.780 Rome is that the business community has embraced them I'm gonna come back when I come back they're
00:27:29.220 paying two times three times what these properties are worth the real estate community in Texas and
00:27:35.380 Florida the business community will sell you out in a New York second that's what this situation
00:27:42.640 is about is that people in the United States law firms public relation firms real estate firms
00:27:48.960 developers, architects, are collaborators on civilizational jihad.
00:27:54.520 This is just not happening because it's happening.
00:27:57.220 It's happening with American collaborators. 0.57
00:28:00.080 Next in the War Room.
00:28:09.440 So many brands today claim to stand for American values,
00:28:13.220 but most of the time it's all talk and no action.
00:28:16.800 That's what makes Patriot Mobile different.
00:28:18.960 For more than 12 years, Patriot Mobile has been living their values and standing in the gap for every American who believes freedom is worth fighting for.
00:28:27.460 Their business was founded on a simple conviction.
00:28:31.520 If culture is being shaped through commerce, Americans deserve a real conservative alternative.
00:28:37.800 Today, Patriot Mobile is America's only Christian conservative wireless provider, offering higher priority nationwide service on any of the three major U.S. networks with unlimited data plans, free international calling to over 200 countries and 100 percent U.S.-based customer service.
00:28:57.640 besides the great tech what truly sets patriot mobile apart is their mission every year patriot
00:29:05.420 mobile contributes millions to organizations defending free speech religious liberty the
00:29:10.740 sanctity of life the second amendment and america's future patriot mobile is not sitting on the
00:29:16.940 sidelines they're on the front lines fighting for our freedoms for a limited time they're offering

00:29:45.020 Bannon.
00:29:46.500 Mission structure.
00:29:48.520 Be able to confront this. Not just talk about it.
00:29:50.980 Be able to confront it and shut it down. Also,
00:29:52.740 the permission structure we've talked about on h1b visas all these problems but i can tell you
00:29:58.080 right here peter macklevin opened it open everybody's eyes to it when he came here and
00:30:02.180 says hey if you compare the same amount of time to london and london is fallen paris today over 1.00
00:30:09.580 the weekend you see more chaos and anarchy because of these migrants uh you know who are is islam 1.00
00:30:16.020 Muslim. It's a political ideology. They wouldn't be anywhere in Texas except the business community 1.00
00:30:24.720 are collaborators. If their cash clears, their money's green, they'll be in business with them.
00:30:33.160 And here's the thing, this money's coming from the Gulf Emirates. This is why we got to get
00:30:36.600 this war in the Middle East. We're protecting Qatar. We're protecting Turkey. We're protecting 1.00
00:30:42.540 UAE Saudi we're your sons and daughters are over there in those carrier battle groups they're in
00:30:49.420 the marines they're they're the uh the airmen we're protecting at the same time the cash is
00:30:55.500 coming here under the table so they can pay two or three times for real estate and you understand
00:31:01.260 how those real estate folks are going to be on top all over that money Maxwell quick and by the
00:31:06.380 way Maxwell's got this group he's a grassroots guy but once you start delving into it you can't
00:31:11.420 figure out, hey, all of a sudden, how are the seven or eight of these things popping up? And
00:31:14.600 I hear they're paying two times what the land's worth. Give me the seven phases real quickly,
00:31:19.800 Maxwell, that you're saying is about to take over here. Yep. First phase is arrival. This is from
00:31:25.340 the Muslim Brotherhood on documents. This is not me. First phase, arrival. Second is strategic 0.99
00:31:30.880 planning. They begin to plan out what they're going to do in the community. Number three,
00:31:34.760 land acquisition. That's where we are right now. Number four, they begin to bring institutions in.
00:31:39.120 that's their mosque. They bring in their education, their schools. Number five is community growth.
00:31:44.720 That's when the housing and businesses begin to pop up and they have a call for what they call
00:31:48.440 settlement. And that's when the community, the Muslim community begins to migrate to that 0.85
00:31:52.900 community. Number six is influence. They get involved in a political process. Right here in 1.00
00:31:57.580 Polk County, we have Engage, which is one organization designed to get Muslims elected
00:32:02.480 at the local level. And then finally is Capture. That's when you have Dearborn, Michigan. 0.78
00:32:06.800 so that it's a seven-step process that they put in place back in the 60s uh they're just following
00:32:13.380 that model throughout the country it's got to be stopped now i want to add to that hang on a second
00:32:18.780 think about this for a second you got maine you've got michigan you have minnesota you've got florida
00:32:26.440 you've got texas this is one of the major issues people in north carolina want to talk about it
00:32:31.020 are afraid to people in tennessee want to talk about it afraid to we're given permission structure
00:32:35.660 And here's how we're going to talk about it. We're going to shut these folks down at the ballot box.
00:32:40.760 They're not sending Abdul Mohammed. El Saeed is not going to go to the United States Senate. 0.95
00:32:46.100 That's a travesty because these people have a very well thought through plan.
00:32:49.600 And this is why we got to have a discussion about this war when it's over. 1.00
00:32:53.240 We should not be overprotecting these Gulf Emirates. We shouldn't be involved. 1.00
00:32:58.160 By the way, the situation that you have all cats, the guy from the Jerusalem Post, the managing editor for a while, wrote that book while Israel slept, talking about what the Trump administration is even thinking of doing, that Netanyahu is not going to win on Tuesday night.
00:33:11.380 The other guy is not going to win.
00:33:12.340 They're going to put together coalition government and that the United States may actually be involved in supporting the coalition government.
00:33:18.060 It's time to cut it all off, bring it all home and say, hey, your money and your cash is not coming here.
00:33:25.260 We're Americans and Americans are going to run this deal.
00:33:28.520 Steve Maxwell, go ahead, sir.
00:33:31.140 Well, you know, you ask what we can do.
00:33:35.020 Okay, we're a Christian-based organization.
00:33:36.880 We work through the local churches around the country. 1.00
00:33:39.600 It really comes down to, number one, we can witness to these people because their religion is one of slavery.
00:33:44.860 And this is between slavery and freedom.
00:33:46.960 And it's about becoming righteous for this eternal life thing they're achieving, trying to achieve.
00:33:51.820 You have to be righteous.
00:33:52.840 And again, our book, our Bible says, for God made Jesus who knew no sin to become sin for us so that in Jesus, we might become righteousness of God.
00:34:03.580 So our faith is a faith of liberation.
00:34:06.420 Their faith is a faith of slavery, really.
00:34:08.680 So I tell people, don't panic, Steve.
00:34:11.180 Don't panic.
00:34:12.060 Just participate.
00:34:13.760 We have 90 million Christians.
00:34:15.580 Half are not even registered to vote.
00:34:16.800 The other half vote between 40 and 50, 60 percent.
00:34:20.440 All we have to do is turn out.
00:34:21.380 Just participate locally and make sure you've got the right leaders in place on your school boards at the local level, your city commission, county commission, and then participate after the election.
00:34:32.600 Get involved.
00:34:33.640 Get involved in committees.
00:34:34.700 Go to the meetings.
00:34:35.480 Make sure your voice is heard in your local community.
00:34:39.620 And then awareness of what's happening in your local community is 50% of the battle.
00:34:45.320 You're seeing a lot of this getting shut down in these communities that have become aware, and now they're standing up in their local government.
00:34:51.380 So that's my advice.
00:34:53.440 Steve Maxwell, where do people go?
00:34:55.100 I want people to go to your site to see the seven steps, all the analytics you put out there, but also start to get the reality check of what's really gone here.
00:35:03.100 This issue is huge in Florida, and people are not talking enough about it.
00:35:08.960 If we put this front and center, if we put this front and center of Byron Donalds, you know, Byron Donalds ought to stop taking money from the tech oligarchs and start focusing on this issue.
00:35:17.720 He would also not be in a dead heat with Jolly.
00:35:20.160 He'd be up 10 points where we should win Florida.
00:35:22.720 The governor's race, we should win by 10 or 15 points.
00:35:26.120 But you've got to start talking about the issues that matter.
00:35:30.220 And I'm telling you, in Florida, those real estate, the real estate industry will sell you out in a New York second.
00:35:37.240 If they're going to sit there in some of that land and get a two or three bagger, boom, they don't care who they sell it to.
00:35:42.720 Maxwell, where do people go to get more information and your social media, sir?
00:35:47.400 You got, yeah, citizensdefendingfreedom.com is the website, citizensdefendingfreedom.com.
00:35:53.700 My social media is just officialstevemaxwell on Instagram.
00:35:58.120 So that's it.
00:35:59.220 I appreciate the opportunity.
00:36:00.820 And you're right.
00:36:01.180 This is the number one issue in the country.
00:36:03.540 Number one issue in the country.
00:36:05.020 Thank you, sir.
00:36:05.600 Appreciate you.
00:36:06.360 All right.
00:36:06.560 Thank you.
00:36:07.280 Because it ties back to these foreign wars.
00:36:09.400 i'll get this i'll get this tweet up on uh coming out of israel about us actually involved in
00:36:17.140 putting together putting together the coalition government we should have nothing to do with that
00:36:20.660 that's what those folks to figure out we should absolutely nothing to do with this let's go to i
00:36:25.260 want to get hoft in here hoft joe you've been doing a great job and i think people are kind
00:36:31.000 of at wit's end like what in the hell are we doing here but you've been doing a great job in
00:36:34.240 California. You just saw Arizona. We've got other issues in Arizona with ballots. But
00:36:39.260 essentially, these Democrats, whether they're in Maricopa County, Arizona, Katie Hobbs,
00:36:46.080 or in California or wherever throughout the country, they have no compunction about signing
00:36:51.600 up foreigners. Their business model is quite simple. If they don't get illegal aliens and
00:36:56.960 foreign nationals who are not eligible to vote, to vote, they can't win. This is why we have to 1.00
00:37:02.700 shut it down. Joe Hoff, what's your analysis showed us? Well, great segue into all of this.
00:37:10.200 And at the beginning of the hour, you shared those MSNBC, MS Now clips, which are just appalling to
00:37:16.580 me. I think the key thing is what you just said, their business model. And if this is a business
00:37:22.300 model, it's a model for bankruptcy, because what they are doing is basically cheating every chance
00:37:29.820 they can to steal an election, and then they get MS Now to claim that we're the ones that
00:37:35.400 are racist and we are the ones that are trying to steal an election by standing up for what's
00:37:40.160 right.
00:37:40.860 In California, I noted this the other day, there's a great piece by Wall Street Apes
00:37:46.120 that pointed out there was a response to President Trump's and the DOJ's lawsuit in California
00:37:54.400 if they came up with like 22,000 people that they said were not citizens and they wanted
00:37:59.300 the state to validate this, have these removed from their voter rolls before they do any counting.
00:38:08.080 And so there were various responses immediately from California. And like in the corporate world,
00:38:15.420 the real world, a company that wants to remain a going concern, you address this stuff before
00:38:20.320 anybody else even brings it to your attention. This stuff is done. It's immediately, it's
00:38:24.620 something that's very important. In California, it's the opposite. They're pushing back,
00:38:30.200 wanting to continue their process and pushing back on Trump.
00:38:33.880 Oh, they're not. Hang on, Joe. Hang on. Hang on. I'm having Natalie up here, what these guys have
00:38:39.260 planned. They're not pushing back. They're more insurrectionist than John C. Calhoun.
00:38:45.940 They told the federal government, go screw yourself. Now, the federal government's had to
00:38:49.160 say, hey, look, tough guys, if you're going to continue to do this, criminal penalties are going
00:38:54.820 to linger out there. That if we have officials, elected officials or state election officials
00:39:01.100 that continue to do this, the Trump administration and particularly this fire-breathing U.S. attorney
00:39:07.220 in L.A. has said, hey, I'm going to start bringing criminal indictments. I mean, that's
00:39:11.800 the place we're at, correct? Right. And that's where we have to be. And so L.A. County, for
00:39:18.000 example, responded to this with, they said, we did a sample of 200 of these individuals out of
00:39:24.500 the 22,000. They don't say they did a statistical sample. They don't give us the parameters that
00:39:29.500 they set. We would do this in the corporate world to do a proper sampling methodology and provide
00:39:35.460 all our confidence level, everything. This guy just says, I did a sample, which to me leaves it
00:39:40.320 open to whether it was random at all, whether he just picked 200 people that were the best that he
00:39:47.120 could grab to support his position. Anyways, regardless, it turns out that around 30 percent
00:39:53.040 of those, almost 30 percent, were found by him. He doesn't say this. He says the opposite, but
00:39:59.340 30 percent of those people have voted in prior elections. This is consistent with what we found
00:40:04.540 earlier. Hang on. Hang on. Hang on. Slow down. I want to go to your analysis right there to hit
00:40:10.940 hit rewind. Give me that one again. With all their happy talk, you found and it's been proven that
00:40:17.700 30 percent of these people have previously voted, correct? That's right, because they say, well,
00:40:22.900 we found like 71 or 2 percent that did not vote before. So that implies that there's 30 percent
00:40:30.500 roughly, 28 percent that did vote before. And I thought, yeah, that makes sense. And we don't
00:40:36.840 even know if this how random the sample is this might even be it might even be worse than this
00:40:42.540 we don't really know because they don't give us the parameters behind their sampling so again
00:40:47.840 something in the real world in the corporate world would would bring all sorts of red flags like bees
00:40:54.000 on honey we would be all over this to get it fixed as soon as possible we were mandated that we have
00:40:59.940 to have every single number accurate and every single process that impacts those numbers had to
00:41:05.520 be reviewed and insured and signed off on somebody has i had to sign off on a billion dollar entity
00:41:11.640 once that that these numbers are perfect there isn't a dime off and instead in the in the election
00:41:19.640 world it's like oh no they don't want that they're gonna fight it but you know msnbc called a
00:41:24.020 preemptive meddling of what the justice department main justice is doing in um in uh in uh alaska
00:41:31.680 what's going to happen here in Arizona, because this thing's going to blow up today. I can tell
00:41:36.000 you with these NGOs out there blatantly signing up foreigners saying, hey, you don't need to come
00:41:41.200 to me, just go online. Or you come to me, but tell your friends to go online. They've got a scam.
00:41:45.960 They have a system down to steal elections. And we're not going to let this one be stolen.
00:41:51.600 President Trump's Justice Department. I don't care how much the New York Times or how much
00:41:55.560 msnbc squeals uh we're going to have a fair election here and a fair election means uh 0.97
00:42:02.400 voters certified certified elections of votes of u.s citizens none of this crap the democrats have
00:42:08.700 been uh pulling joe where do people go to gateway pundit to joehoff.com and your social media because

00:42:22.360 Yeah, joelhoff.com, Gateway Pundit.

00:42:30.300 can't have this election stolen.
00:42:32.100 Americans aren't going to put up with it this time.
00:42:34.020 We know way too much.
00:42:35.540 That's the difference between now and 2020.
00:42:37.500 We know way too much.
00:42:39.860 They're not going to get away with it.
00:42:41.160 And people also see like this situation with these fake LLCs buying this property with 0.59
00:42:46.860 using the Islamic centers in Texas as voter registration and voting.
00:42:51.760 and they're voting in blocks you talk about this big turnout of the democratic party and all of
00:42:56.240 them vote democratic right they're looking for the most radical party a party that hates america just

00:45:29.280 Okay, I'm going to get to 10 days to strip the world in a moment.
00:45:32.080 That is still tomorrow. Dead heat. Major last night, major debate.
00:45:37.340 Israel on Tuesday. Right now, they don't think that thing will be settled.
00:45:41.120 It could be 30 days or 60 days trying to put together a government or maybe even another vote.
00:45:45.140 It's that close.
00:45:46.800 Of course, here in the United States of America, things are tightening up.
00:45:49.240 How do I know that?
00:45:50.040 Hakeem Jeffries went out yesterday talking to Politico and said, hey, they're tamping down at the highest levels of the Democratic Party on the House side.
00:45:59.660 They're trying to say, hey, look, guys, this may not be 30 or 40 seats.
00:46:03.200 We got to get realistic here.
00:46:04.340 We need we must focus on actually taking the House.
00:46:08.360 Let's get very focused.
00:46:09.360 Why is that? Because momentum is shifting because of the grassroots in this country.
00:46:14.060 Luke Macias joins us. Luke, we've had a couple of days you've been able to analyze now
00:46:18.540 of this early vote, in-person early vote in Texas. What do you got for us, sir?
00:46:23.440 Yeah, so the good news is Wednesday and Thursday got better for Republicans. I will say this. I
00:46:29.000 had hoped that Thursday would be more of an overwhelming show of force from Republicans
00:46:33.460 across the state. We did see that they turned out in very high numbers in some of the North
00:46:37.780 Texas suburbs and other places that they've been lacking. Denton County, Tarrant County is just
00:46:42.120 starting to pick up. I'm still concerned, you know, you and I both know Brandon Herrera. He's a total
00:46:47.180 patriot, beat Tony Gonzalez in the primary down there. While Dan Crenshaw's district has now
00:46:52.640 shaded more solidly red, that district still has more Democrat voters that have voted and primary
00:46:58.420 Democrat voters that have voted than Republicans. That's in CD23, that's San Antonio all the way out
00:47:03.580 to El Paso. So we just continue to see Republicans pick up, but they're not overwhelming the polls.
00:47:10.740 I just want to be clear. They're not overwhelming the polls. We haven't seen it anywhere.
00:47:14.620 Hopefully today being Saturday, more of them actually have the time off. They can get there.
00:47:19.480 Yes, they're waking up. Yes, some low propensity Republicans are coming up. But I will just say
00:47:23.560 this, and I don't know if it's Texas specific because I'm not looking at every other state,
00:47:27.820 but the Democrats continue to maintain a significant amount of energy. They're showing
00:47:32.740 up. They're not running out of votes yet. They should run out of votes soon. So hopefully any
00:47:37.260 day now they're going to start seeing a taper off in their Democrat primary turnout. Now Republicans
00:47:41.680 did surpass Democrats in early vote in-person vote by 5,000 votes yesterday. Okay. So we've
00:47:48.600 had this gap for a long time. They still have a 20 to 30,000 vote margin on us in the mail-in
00:47:55.020 ballots. So we have not surpassed that. It could be that after yesterday's votes are fully tallied
00:48:00.460 around 2 or 3 p.m., maybe Republicans take the lead there.
00:48:03.760 But I will just say, it's slow, it's steady,
00:48:06.880 but we need more Republicans desperately to come out to vote
00:48:11.420 and to find their friends to vote if we're going to keep Texas red.
00:48:14.800 Luke, just for a comparison, are the Democrats,
00:48:17.580 because the first couple of days they front-loaded it,
00:48:19.480 are they still running at presidential cycle levels
00:48:23.880 and we're running ahead of a midterm level,
00:48:27.540 but it's that gap that has you worried?
00:48:30.460 That's the gap, 100%.
00:48:32.020 So I would say they're a little under-presidential,
00:48:35.700 but they're closer to presidential than we are.
00:48:39.600 And then we are, of course, in the midterm.
00:48:41.720 We're above what a midterm expectation would be,
00:48:43.960 but we're not reaching Democrat levels of turnout.
00:48:46.580 It could be that Republicans are just going to take
00:48:48.380 a little longer to show up, and we see that next week.
00:48:50.900 But I personally don't think we should take that risk.
00:48:53.240 I had a lot of friends over the last day or two tell me,
00:48:55.880 hey, can I vote until the 30th?
00:48:57.800 I said, no, you can vote until Saturday.
00:48:59.340 If you get hit by a bus on Sunday, we need you to bank that vote.
00:49:03.760 So that's what we're fighting against right now.
00:49:05.620 And yes, Republicans are showing up, but it is true.
00:49:08.960 Democrats are closer to their presidential numbers than Republicans are.
00:49:13.980 You know, Luke, we've had on pastor after pastor, and these people are working like crazy.
00:49:18.460 But tomorrow should be another bad day for us, right?
00:49:21.280 Because this is souls to the polls.
00:49:23.140 It's a very organized effort among black churches particularly and progressive churches to actually have buses there, church buses.
00:49:31.960 You go right from service.
00:49:33.500 You go right there.
00:49:34.140 And, of course, Tallarico, one of the reasons this is even close is he's clothed himself in Christianity. 0.95
00:49:41.920 So tomorrow should be a pretty rough day for us. 0.97
00:49:43.760 So starting Monday, it may not – even with a good showing today, it's not like you think we're going to overtake them this weekend.
00:49:50.560 It's not going to reset it
00:49:51.860 because they're going to make some of that ground
00:49:53.580 back on Sunday.
00:49:54.680 And then it's going to be up to us
00:49:55.760 Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday.
00:49:58.260 We have five days to overrun the polls.
00:50:00.800 Most polling says 72% of the vote
00:50:03.140 is going to be cast early, Steve.
00:50:04.620 72, it was 69% two years ago.
00:50:07.320 And it's just creeping up more and more and more.
00:50:09.960 So with that many votes,
00:50:11.720 whatever gets banked
00:50:13.240 is still going to determine most districts.
00:50:15.600 It's only going to be a handful of districts 0.87
00:50:16.920 that flip on election day.
00:50:18.360 We should not bet on that.
00:50:20.940 But right now, people should understand that Texas House, I mean, you have the Democrats this time.
00:50:26.180 They have a they have someone from every first time in their history, somebody for every slot, for every billet.
00:50:32.160 Yes. So that's why Republicans have got to come out.
00:50:35.080 What should we look for until we get you back on Monday or Tuesday?
00:50:38.720 What's the one thing you would tell the posse?
00:50:40.340 Hey, focus on this in Texas at these numbers come up on the secretary of state and these other analytical sites.
00:50:45.620 i would continue to look at rural turnout and making sure that it's going up we have to see
00:50:51.560 more rural texas come out this is east texas and west texas right now we don't see the turnout
00:50:56.700 correct that's right east and west texas are both lower now some people will say that the excuse is
00:51:03.620 that many of those west texas counties only have one early voting location right so you got to drive
00:51:09.060 20 or 30 minutes they like waiting till election day but i don't think we can risk rural texas for
00:51:14.060 election day we've got to drive more and more of them to show up because travis county and dallas
00:51:18.800 county have exceeded in some cases dallas county has exceeded its presidential turnout right now
00:51:24.540 it's mostly midterm voters so hopefully they're just front loading it but in rural texas we're
00:51:28.900 only running 70 percent of presidential so that 30 point gap moves the state six seven points
00:51:35.220 which with the other crossover that's really bad for paxton and you don't you don't really have the
00:51:40.680 analytics now because i don't have enough information quite yet to see if they're just
00:51:43.620 cannibalizing their vote if they're front loading their sure thing voters and they've yet to get a
00:51:49.300 huge amount of low propensity correct we're still working through that there there's not a huge
00:51:53.760 amount of low propensity we do know that but the problem is going to be that even if they do run
00:51:58.480 out of their banked vote wednesday now they have five days to do nothing but go grab those low
00:52:03.840 propensity people while we're still yelling at our base to try to get them out and i don't think
00:52:07.880 that's an environment we want to be in. Luke, where do people go to get your analytics? Where
