Bannon's War Room - Episode 5765： President Trump Heads To Texas; Mainstaning Hispanic Voter Turnout

00:00:00.000 President Trump just wrapped up an incredible rally in Corpus Christi, Texas.

00:00:11.400 They're heading to the airport.

00:00:12.820 They're going to go to Lubbock.

00:00:13.860 We're going to go to Lubbock in a moment.

00:00:15.360 Let's go to Corpus Christi, Texas.

00:00:18.060 Our own David Zier.

00:00:19.620 David, that was a force of nature right there, sir.

00:00:25.980 Yes, good afternoon, Steve.

00:00:27.440 And it always is, of course, the nature and Corpus Christi voted for Trump.

00:00:31.760 And he says that this is one of his favorite places here.

00:00:35.560 Three critical toss-ups.

00:00:37.240 House race is at stake here.

00:00:39.300 The Paxton race is close.

00:00:41.280 Half a million dollars invested between the candidates here.

00:00:44.640 Seven days to go until the midterm.

00:00:46.640 But Marco Rubio brought down the House today.

00:00:49.020 He was electrifying the crowd.

00:00:51.300 Made a brief statement.

00:00:52.320 Didn't want to come up.

00:00:53.340 Trump dragged him out here.

00:00:54.760 And he said, we're going to parachute him into Cuba.

00:00:57.440 But exports at a record high. Oil coming out of the Permian Basin, through Fort Worth, the train yards out of Houston, and here, the port of Corpus Christi, one of the largest ports in the U.S., one of the busiest ports, LNG, crude oil, petroleum exporters, military.

00:01:13.240 We have a naval air station here, we fix helicopters down here, maritime trains, you know, the energy industry, the manufacturing, and Texas Instruments said they're going to bring $50 billion back to America, to Texas, and all of these other companies, the cost of tariffs, Trump says, tens of billions of dollars here.

00:01:32.340 Our early voting was breaking records here in Oasis County and Corpus Christi, and they

00:01:38.480 voted for Trump over Kamala by a warm margin.

00:01:41.180 We'll see if they can carry that over to the midterms.

00:01:44.120 But Trump, another, like you said, a force in nature.

00:01:47.100 Nobody can get these crowds out like he can.

00:01:49.260 Fired up crowd.

00:01:51.420 David, you remember we were down here just a month or two ago, I think in the primary,

00:01:55.960 the runoff, when President Trump went to Corpus Christi and talked about a big expansion.

00:02:00.520 I guess they're going to deepen the harbor.

00:02:02.580 They're going to upgrade, help upgrade a lot of the logistics to the harbor.

00:02:07.020 I mean, Corpus Christi is so central to the economy of the Caribbean, the Gulf of America, and South Texas.

00:02:13.600 And as you said, those house seats, we spent so much work in the Rio Grande Valley and in South Texas with Hispanic Americans to make sure they overwhelmingly came out for Trump.

00:02:24.200 We really, you know, Steve Cortez would go down there for years.

00:02:27.380 We don't want to lose that.

00:02:28.480 What was the temperature?

00:02:29.800 Take the temperature of the audience. Were they responding?

00:02:35.440 103.5. Yeah, they're really fired up down here.

00:02:41.040 A lot of military, a lot of retired people down here come to southern Texas to retire.

00:02:46.560 They've got issues. They've got water problems. Trump is addressing they want to do a $1 billion desalination plant down here.

00:02:53.340 But with respect to the port of Corpus Christi, you know, they just finished a harbor bridge.

00:02:58.060 They delivered it last September. It's right outside this venue here, and it's 205 feet tall.

00:03:03.480 It can accommodate the largest ships in the world, container ships.

00:03:07.360 But remember, Brownsville, just south of here, not only is there SpaceX, but you've got Saronic Technologies.

00:03:12.880 I went there with the Department of War in Austin, Texas.

00:03:15.940 They're building a $3.2 billion facility to make ships, 150-foot ships, 950-foot pilotless remote ships.

00:03:25.620 And again, that was the company that built the on-manned one-way drone boats that struck Bandar Abbas and rescued Apache pilots.

00:03:33.560 So a lot of stuff going on down, a critical part of our country, southern Texas.

00:03:39.760 David, did you get a chance beforehand, because I know you've been down there since early morning, to go to the crowd?

00:03:45.000 Because I heard they were wrapped around the facility to get in.

00:03:47.660 Did you get to talk to the MAGA base as they were waiting in line?

00:03:51.460 Yeah, absolutely.

00:03:53.260 What's the feel for the Texans down there?

00:03:58.600 Because this is a dogfight.

00:03:59.640 If you look at the numbers, this is a dogfight.

00:04:03.640 Well, it is a dogfight.

00:04:05.140 And I think it was Paxton said earlier,

00:04:07.200 one of the, maybe it was Dan Patrick said,

00:04:09.280 two million Texans that are Republicans have yet to vote

00:04:13.400 as early voting records are broken over 2022.

00:04:16.540 So the people outside, a lot of people are Republicans,

00:04:19.120 I'd still like to vote on the day of voting,

00:04:22.280 out of other concerns, but we interviewed veterans.

00:04:26.200 I did so many interviews with mothers, grandmothers, mothers of Navy SEALs, the veterans.

00:04:32.040 You know, this is real America.

00:04:33.700 These are the good people who are tired of being told they're the bad people.

00:04:36.960 They're just disgusted by Tallarico and what he's proposing and what he really stands for.

00:04:42.600 You know, comes back after that hiatus, kind of like more of a conservative middle-of-the-road Democrat,

00:04:47.960 and they don't believe that for a minute here.

00:04:50.640 So maybe that'll translate, and maybe Paxton can pull this one out.

00:04:55.220 Down here, those three races down here in 15, 34, and 28 are somewhat concerning for the Republicans.

00:05:02.120 Some of them were redistricted, though they had it in the bag.

00:05:04.920 But Trump coming in to fortify the rear, go into red areas,

00:05:08.360 and make sure the red areas get 3, 5, 10 people out to vote at the polls,

00:05:12.720 just like you saw in upstate South Carolina last week

00:05:15.340 and all the other places that he's been where it's closed.

00:05:18.240 David, the ads for Tallarico, and they're everywhere if you're down here in Texas

00:05:24.120 They paint a very different picture of what Tallarico really is, right?

00:05:28.260 It makes him look like a reformer

00:05:29.700 It makes him look like a guy that's passed 60 pieces of legislation

00:05:32.680 He's going to be tough on the border, all this

00:05:35.240 Nothing that really ties back to what his real beliefs are

00:05:39.320 Are people starting to understand that that's just all optics, that none of that's true?

00:05:44.320 What's the feeling down there among the MAGA base?

00:05:48.240 I think that Tallarico really hurt himself amongst his own base or maybe some conservative

00:05:54.700 Democrats. And I think it was Mays Middleton, who's running for attorney general here, said

00:05:58.960 that Tallarico is more, he knows atheists that are more Christian than Tallarico, right? And

00:06:05.660 Donald Trump played the video for the crowd here of all the things in the past that Tallarico's

00:06:11.200 been regurgitating about trans and, you know, Republicans want to, you know, take your body 0.77

00:06:16.540 away your bodily rights and all this stuff but he's the one who's been promoting the trans the

00:06:21.280 men and women's sports the people of texas don't want that um we'll see it's become more blue you

00:06:26.920 know what happened in austin california is coming here uh also you know taxes are going up in texas

00:06:32.300 there's still no income tax uh they have their own issues but investment half of wall street came

00:06:37.380 down here between here in palm beach and tennessee and you've got major manufacturers coming just

00:06:41.800 like trump's first term when stanley tools came back to texas and trump on short 9 000

00:06:46.740 distribution back to businesses back to america now it's a 22 and a half trillion dollars in 15

00:06:52.900 month trump says uh unprecedented uh david last thing uh you know we had a 50 000 vote deficit

00:07:02.180 then we had with souls to the polls on sunday they added another 60 000 we were down about

00:07:07.320 115,000. We were told

00:07:09.520 that we basically got that made up on Monday

00:07:11.480 because of the great work the Christian pastors

00:07:13.440 did on Sunday to motivate

00:07:15.600 their peers to get out and vote.

00:07:17.640 Do you think that, do you get a sense

00:07:19.600 that people are going to take advantage of

00:07:21.560 early voting over the next couple

00:07:23.480 of days? That's traditionally

00:07:24.660 if Texas conservatives do vote, it's

00:07:27.500 normally in the last couple of days that we

00:07:29.500 can get this race back to being as tight

00:07:31.380 as it needs to be, waiting for game day

00:07:33.500 next week, sir?

00:07:34.140 the message for the rally goers today was get out an early vote from several of the speakers

00:07:40.980 uh really important here um and uh you know i think it's critical because you know these races

00:07:47.720 the fate of our country is in the hands of like say 30 small house races and it could come down

00:07:52.660 to a few thousand people deciding the fate of the united states going forward you know so uh really

00:07:57.820 important because trump may have lost a little bit of hispanic vote down here he may have lost

00:08:03.060 Some other, you know, people who are concerned about the economy, young people who lean Republican, maybe they're not.

00:08:08.340 So, you know, if it's 1 percent here, 2 percent there.

00:08:10.860 I mean, that could be the difference that these races that are lean Democrat or toss up races in the House, three in Michigan, toss ups, a couple down here.

00:08:19.300 You add it up nationwide. You know, the pendulum can swing pretty easily.

00:08:24.480 David, I think you said something that's very powerful.

00:08:26.900 I want people to understand we're talking about the Democrats actually say they think there's 30 to maybe 35.

00:08:33.060 seats that are in play they're going for. It could come down to under 1,000 votes in a bunch of these

00:08:40.040 key districts. You could end up, unlike the election of 16, which was 72, and then when it

00:08:45.880 was stolen in 20, where people are talking about 75,000 votes each way in these key states,

00:08:51.160 you could come down to a situation where it is under 10,000 votes, under 5,000 votes,

00:08:58.640 flips the entire House of Representatives, sir.

00:09:04.520 Yeah, it is possible, but the trends that I've seen in the last several weeks on the ground,

00:09:09.400 talking to people, you know, in the airports and others who hate Donald Trump and outside

00:09:13.940 of the thousands of people we talk to on the ground at the Trump rallies, you know, it's

00:09:17.780 about gas prices, Steve, you know, and people aren't as sophisticated, in my opinion, on

00:09:22.980 the left when it comes to discussing these issues and having a long-term vision on what

00:09:27.140 Trump is actually doing and how good next year is going to be for the United States.

00:09:31.660 I think some people have turned away.

00:09:33.840 You've seen 19 more races, according to the Cook Political Report, go down a level.

00:09:38.200 So if it was strong Republican, now it's lean Republican.

00:09:40.640 If it was lean Republican, you know, maybe it's a likely Republican, then it's lean Republican.

00:09:45.500 And if it was lean Republican, now it's a toss-up.

00:09:47.500 Or if it was lean Democrat, now it's likely Democrat.

00:09:50.480 And we see that across the board nationwide.

00:09:52.800 I don't know how accurate that polling and that analysis is, but that's the trend.

00:09:57.920 But I think it's rebounded.

00:09:59.500 I really believe that Trump has gotten a lot of this territory made back up.

00:10:04.340 I don't think there's any doubt about it.

00:10:06.160 I think it's definitely energy.

00:10:07.400 OK, you've done a great job in Texas, David Zier.

00:10:10.540 Before you go, I've got to ask you about your beloved New York, Long Island.

00:10:14.460 Those races in the Hudson Valley, even in upstate New York, could determine the House of Representatives,

00:10:20.280 Where do we stand on these? Because these are the ones that are really in play.

00:10:25.340 Well, the Democrats have their dream candidate, right? 0.83

00:10:28.000 A multiple tour in Iraq, West Point graduate, lesbian, right? LGBTQ. 0.65

00:10:32.880 It's going to be a tough race for Mike Lawler.

00:10:35.160 I might be at the governor's, you know, Lakeland candidate for governor's headquarters on election night.

00:10:42.340 He's still down close to double digits. It's probably a lot closer than that.

00:10:46.520 Let's see if he did enough, you know, on the ground.

00:10:49.940 It's going to be a tight one.

00:10:51.100 But energy rates have gone up in New York.

00:10:52.780 So upstate is a lock for Bruce Blakeman.

00:10:55.220 I'm not so sure about the five boroughs or parts of it outside of Staten Island.

00:10:59.000 Always the battle.

00:11:00.200 87% of New York City, Manhattan, go Democrat.

00:11:03.180 See if he can move a needle on that.

00:11:05.620 And, you know, crime's up.

00:11:06.540 Homelessness is up.

00:11:07.380 Subway crime is up.

00:11:08.560 Hoka was just rated the worst governor in the United States.

00:11:10.660 I saw an article today.

00:11:11.960 So maybe that'll help Blakeman.

00:11:13.960 It's going to be a tough one.

00:11:16.100 David Zier, where do people go for your great content?

00:11:19.520 I know you're putting packages up all day of who you interviewed out there in Corpus Christi, one of the great towns in this in these United States.

00:11:26.900 Where do people go on your social media, sir?

00:11:30.420 Thank you, Steve. I'm at Dave Zier on X and David Zier on everything else.

00:11:35.560 I appreciate your time. Thank you so much.

00:11:37.940 Brother Zier, fantastic. Thank you.

00:11:40.400 That is live from Corpus Christi, Texas, down in South Texas.

00:11:43.640 It's so important. Now we're going to go to Lubbock.

00:11:46.420 I've got a few minutes on this side.

00:11:49.580 Tara Dalt joins us. 0.99

00:11:51.140 First off, Tara, welcome back.

00:11:52.840 Normally we see you.

00:11:54.140 You're in a combat zone or you're up on the Lebanon border in Israel or you're someplace

00:11:59.680 and some more in the Middle East.

00:12:01.020 We're so glad to see you in Lubbock, Texas.

00:12:04.640 Tell us about the enthusiasm.

00:12:05.940 The president's en route to his next rally in Texas, ma'am.

00:12:11.760 It's great to be with you, Steve.

00:12:13.360 And I'll tell you, nobody can convince me that there is not enthusiasm on the Republican side.

00:12:18.980 No one.

00:12:19.580 And you know me, that I like to go to the ground.

00:12:21.740 I like to be on the ground to get what is happening there and the truth.

00:12:25.380 And I'll tell you, in Texas, the enthusiasm is just off the charts.

00:12:30.300 And this line, Steve, you couldn't even see the end of it this morning.

00:12:33.480 This is going to be a sold-out place.

00:12:35.800 It's 5,000 people inside this arena here at the Civic Center.

00:12:40.020 And there's a 1,300-seat overflow.

00:12:42.400 but people were here camped out last night. It's like the 2024 election again, but the key is

00:12:48.840 to get them out to vote. It's the Republicans have the majority here in Texas registered voters.

00:12:55.740 If they go and vote, they will win the state, but they have to get out to the polls. And

00:13:01.060 President Trump coming here is getting people enthused. He's getting people out to the polls,

00:13:07.080 And I'll tell you, it is making a difference.

00:13:10.260 They are excited to see the president.

00:13:12.140 A lot of them that I talked to today when I was going up and down the line, it's their first time coming to a rally.

00:13:17.080 But they still fully support them.

00:13:19.120 And they are the ones that we need to get to have to go to the polls to win Texas.

00:13:24.300 But it's winnable.

00:13:25.420 People just have to go and vote. 0.99

00:13:27.860 Tara, just hang on.

00:13:29.060 We're going to take a short commercial break.

00:13:30.900 We're going to come right back to you in Lubbock, Texas.

00:13:33.400 So just to set the table here.

00:13:36.100 This was very strategic, the president's trip to Texas.

00:13:40.300 Went to Corpus Christi, one of the major towns down there, cities down there on the Gulf in South Texas.

00:13:47.200 Because we've got a couple of congressional seats up there, this is where we've made such great gains with the Hispanic community.

00:13:52.420 Huge defense, Corpus Christi, got a big naval air station.

00:13:55.420 Of course, Beeville, all of it, all down there in South Texas.

00:13:58.060 From South Texas, he's heading up to Lubbock.

00:14:00.640 He's got to get to West Texas.

00:14:01.780 And remember, we need to see these West Texas and East Texas folks start coming out.

00:14:06.860 That's really the difference so far.

00:14:08.320 The rural communities, which always come out from President Trump, have not really represented yet.

00:14:13.140 Of course, you see the enthusiasm down in Corpus Christi.

00:14:15.680 You see the enthusiasm in Lubbock.

00:14:17.840 We're going to go back to Tara Dahl in a moment.

00:14:21.000 Tara Dahl is back with us from her time at the State Department, the National Security Council.

00:17:33.660 O'er the ramparts we watched

00:17:38.060 Were so gallantly streaming

00:17:42.160 And the rocket's red glare

00:17:46.580 The bombs bursting in air

00:17:51.220 Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there

00:18:38.060 Yeah.

00:18:39.260 Okay.

00:18:40.120 Tara Dahl.

00:18:41.280 Tara, talk to me about the enthusiasm.

00:18:43.180 You said something very important.

00:18:44.360 You talked about how many first time we've been going all over the country with Burquam Zero, the entire crew, which shocks me, whether it's at Fort Campbell, Kentucky, wherever we're going down in Georgia.

00:18:55.940 How many first time people have not been to these rallies that are showing up?

00:19:00.660 Tell me about the enthusiasm as you walked around today in that line of people waiting in that heat to get into the auditorium, ma'am.

00:19:07.540 Yeah, but most of the people that we talked to, Steve, today, it was their first time coming to a Trump rally, and they were so excited.

00:19:17.880 I mean, I can't tell you how much the enthusiasm, and even for me coming to these rallies, you know, you look on the news, you don't see it when you record it on the news.

00:19:27.220 But when you're here on the ground, it feels like 2024.

00:19:30.520 I went all over the nation for 2024 with RAB, and it has that same spirit, that same enthusiasm that people are coming out to support the president.

00:19:40.980 Tara, hang on.

00:19:41.920 I'm going to come right back to you in Lubbock.

00:19:43.400 Tara Dahl's at the arena where it's going to be in Lubbock, and the enthusiasm of this is incredible.

00:19:49.300 I want to bring in Steve Cortez.

00:19:50.360 And Steve, I feel like you spent a couple of years of your life down in the Rio Grande Valley and in South Texas doing documentaries, working, meeting people.

00:20:00.580 I've always told people a lot of the shift in South Texas, in the Rio Grande Valley, came from your work with Hispanic Americans.

00:20:08.040 So you made the case, and we had talked about this for you, saying, hey, look, these people are hardcore patriots.

00:20:12.880 They want a secure border.

00:20:14.880 They want low crime.

00:20:16.560 They're not against deportations.

00:20:18.940 But what they need is jobs, and their jobs are very sensitive to things in the economy like diesel prices and food prices, et cetera.

00:20:27.540 Give me your assessment.

00:20:28.360 President Trump went to corporate.

00:20:29.560 He's going, look, today's strategic.

00:20:31.980 Corporate's Christie first, Lubbock second.

00:20:34.540 We've got to sort things out down in South Texas and the rear Grand Valley and those congressional districts we fought so hard to redistrict.

00:20:42.780 Then he's got to get up to West Texas.

00:20:44.340 We have to have a massive turnout in West Texas.

00:20:46.740 So give us your assessment of where you think you are and all the work that we did over years to really turn and flip the Rio Grande Valley.

00:20:54.600 Remember all those changes from what Hillary did?

00:20:57.140 It was like 70 and 80 point changes.

00:20:59.380 Where are we today, sir, one week out from the election?

00:21:03.700 Yes.

00:21:03.920 Well, first, let me say I love South Texas.

00:21:06.080 One of the honors of my professional and political life was going to the Rio Grande Valley, the RGV, and meeting just some of the greatest patriots, the most religious Christian people in this entire country.

00:21:16.740 It was an honor and a pleasure, and I hope to go back again soon.

00:21:19.800 In terms of where are we right now on the politics, here's the reality.

00:21:23.600 We won those regions over.

00:21:25.380 We won Hispanics over in an incredible way, a material way nationwide.

00:21:29.320 Of course, in 2024, Trump won the Hispanic male vote.

00:21:32.700 He almost won Hispanics overall.

00:21:34.880 If you take the state of California out, he did win Hispanics nationwide.

00:21:39.020 Where are we right now?

00:21:40.280 It's challenging because of prices. 0.99

00:21:43.020 It's not because of immigration.

00:21:44.160 That's what corporate media wants us to believe.

00:21:45.620 I did national Hispanic polling. This isn't my opinion. This is data driven. Hispanic people generally are working class people in this country.

00:21:52.460 They're also people who happen to drive a lot. The average Hispanic household literally has an extra person in it, an extra mouth to feed. 1.00

00:21:59.060 So food prices, gas prices are hitting them hard right now.

00:22:01.940 Now, I think President Trump's doing exactly what he needs to do because we can re-earn their support because they are not going to find a home in the Democratic Party, 0.91

00:22:10.380 which is completely inhospitable to tradition-minded, family-loving, patriotic, religious Hispanic voters. 0.52

00:22:19.440 However, we also need to deal in reality, in political reality. 0.88

00:22:23.140 And what my national Hispanic poll told me was not only are Hispanics okay with deportations and okay with law enforcement, 0.76

00:22:29.880 they back the blue, they are overrepresented in law enforcement in this country, that is reality,

00:22:34.460 but also that things are challenging right now for them.

00:22:37.780 and they are a constituency. The two places we made the biggest gains in 2024, the biggest gains

00:22:42.100 overall, were Hispanics and young men. Both of those constituencies have been hit very hard by

00:22:47.080 inflation. Both of those constituencies are not in favor of this Mideast War. So we have work to do. 0.92

00:22:52.680 But again, I believe we can re-earn their support. And I know, I know for a fact that they cannot find

00:22:58.680 a permanent political home or a lasting political home in the Democrat Party. The Democrat Party

00:23:03.740 of Peggy Flanagan and Al Syed and Troy Jackson is not a place for a lot of bad hombres, people who

00:23:10.580 work with their minds as well as their hands, people who put on a uniform to go to work, and

00:23:14.700 especially not the people who put on a uniform to guard us, whether it's in the military or the

00:23:18.780 police. Those bad hombres, those guys with names like Cortez and Gonzalez and Romero, they are not

00:23:24.600 at home in the party of Bernie Sanders, that's for sure. However, let's be realistic here, we have

00:23:30.180 work to do to re-earn their support. Didn't we, the one good set of cards we did draw

00:23:37.480 is the radical, the most radical nature of the Democrats, one of the primaries. Abdul in Michigan,

00:23:43.800 you've got Tala Frico down in Texas, not simply with Hispanics. We know Abdul, and you called it 0.90

00:23:50.780 right away. You told us from the very beginning, he says, I think this guy's going to have a very

00:23:54.060 tough time in Detroit with black men. We know that Talo Frico doesn't even campaign down in Houston 0.78

00:24:00.660 because the black men down there don't want to see their sons. These are people that are in the 0.96

00:24:06.280 football warrior culture, don't want to see their sons in dresses. We have to the degree that some

00:24:11.180 of the policies have worked against people, and we've got to be blunt about that, particularly

00:24:14.200 working class people. The economy maybe is not working with them because they don't have 401ks,

00:24:19.260 and not invest in the stock market, the opposition here is not an opposition that they would embrace.

00:24:25.160 You agree?

00:24:26.640 A hundred percent, yes.

00:24:27.620 You know, and listen, I used to coach high school football.

00:24:29.320 Speaking of football and masculine warrior culture, one thing that when you're a coach,

00:24:34.540 if you don't necessarily love where your team is at that moment, let's say you've got work to do with your team,

00:24:38.760 the one thing you really hope for going into game day is a weak opponent, obviously, right?

00:24:43.340 And boy, do we have that, and we have that in spades when we look at our opponents around the country

00:24:48.420 because the Democrats, look, I've been blunt about this.

00:24:51.960 If the Democrats could have been normal for 10 seconds

00:24:54.660 and if they could have nominated some people who seem to be reasonable,

00:24:58.000 who seem to actually love this country but just have different ideas than we do,

00:25:01.520 they probably could have run the table given the macro environment.

00:25:04.660 But they're incapable of doing that. Why?

00:25:06.620 Because they are completely consumed by the DSA.

00:25:09.880 The corporate media wants us to believe that there's sort of this moderate wing

00:25:12.380 of the Democratic Party that's fighting with the radicals.

00:25:14.660 No, it has been completely subsumed by the radicals,

00:25:18.120 at least at the decision-maker level.

00:25:20.360 What I mean by that is the donors and the office holders.

00:25:22.960 Yes, there are still salt-of-the-earth,

00:25:24.540 patriotic, regular folks out there

00:25:26.120 who vote Democratic, fewer and fewer every day.

00:25:28.660 But at the decision-maker level in the Democrat Party,

00:25:31.220 there are no moderates.

00:25:32.200 They are gone.

00:25:33.060 They are an extinct species.

00:25:35.420 The only ones that did exist had to leave the party, right?

00:25:39.360 That's just the reality.

00:25:40.280 So given that, they nominated absolute loons.

00:25:44.080 And what do I mean by that?

00:25:45.200 Specifically, I mean people who are untalented

00:25:47.420 and just unimpressive as human beings, just as political athletes, not very gifted, but much worse

00:25:53.200 than that, radicals who truly hate our country and in some cases are actually dangerous, like 0.84

00:25:59.060 Mohammed al-Sayed, Abdulrahman Mohammed al-Sayed, who of course has significant ties to the Muslim

00:26:05.100 Brotherhood, a major terrorist organization, maybe the most pernicious terrorist organization for that

00:26:10.400 matter in the entire Mideast. And that's the worst example, but it's hardly the only example of these

00:26:16.360 people, these opponents that we have in some ways been blessed with. And as long as we expose them,

00:26:21.780 I think even for voters who aren't thrilled with their present situation, as long as we expose

00:26:26.640 with facts, with facts and truth, who our opponents are, then I think we prevail. And then once this

00:26:32.240 war wraps up, we get back to the hard work of building prosperity for Main Street again. Here's

00:26:36.640 the great news, Steve. Pre-war, these bad hombres I'm talking about in South Texas, blue-collar 0.98

00:26:42.600 people, they were doing incredibly well in this economy. We were back pre-war on the Trump 1.0

00:26:49.360 economic trajectory, the 2019 trajectory of blue-collar workers doing incredibly well and

00:26:55.400 seeing real wages, meaning pay adjusted for inflation, galloping higher. I believe we'll

00:26:59.900 get back there really, really fast because manufacturing has continued to expand even

00:27:04.400 with the higher inflation caused by the war. Once that temporary inflation spike abates,

00:27:09.680 that manufacturing expansion and boom that is lasting. That's something that can last

00:27:15.500 not just for weeks or months, but rather for quarters and years ahead. And I truly believe

00:27:21.860 that we have incredible days ahead of prosperity, and particularly so for blue-collar workers. 0.89

00:27:28.260 Hispanics are overrepresented in that category. Let's get them to believe in that vision. Let's

00:27:33.900 get them to recognize that the opponents are totally unacceptable, even if you're unhappy

00:27:38.080 with your current financial situation and then we can wrap up this war and i i believe personally

00:27:43.520 that the iranians are going to be far more reasonable about wrapping it up after the

00:27:47.680 election because they know our political reality so right now they think they have leverage they

00:27:51.760 won't have that leverage coming come november 4th we wrap that war up we get back to main street 0.98

00:27:56.480 prosperity and delivering for these hispanics i believe we're going to resume the prior upsurge

00:28:02.560 we had, the prior ascending trend we had among battle embrace. Steve, hang on for a second. We

00:28:08.520 got a very special debate. You just took place in. We're on the run up to the Lubbock rally

00:28:13.920 here in the war room. When you're not feeling well, you don't want another thing added to your

00:29:44.420 War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Vann.

00:29:50.900 The, um, a, a, uh, as you know, we celebrate, um, Veterans Day around here every year.

00:30:00.080 This year is going to have something special also because Jim Caviezel, we had a great interview with him this morning in a fantastic film, Ghost Soldiers.

00:30:07.240 That's going to open on Veterans Day, November 11th.

00:30:10.020 So we have something else.

00:30:11.680 The folks at Birch Gold said, hey, look, we want to do something special.

00:30:16.640 So we're doing a special for Veterans Day.

00:30:18.660 It's going to run through October 30th right now, which is the last day of early in-person voting in Texas this Friday.

00:30:29.580 Make sure you go right now.

00:30:30.960 Take your phone and text Bannon, B-A-N-N-O-N at 989898.

00:30:35.060 You get direct access to Philip Patrick and the team.

00:30:38.340 You talk about this special.

00:30:39.320 For every $10,000 purchase of gold or precious metals through Birch Gold, they will kick in a patriotic silver round.

00:30:52.760 Talk to Philip Patrick and the team of this special offer.

00:30:55.560 Birch does not do that this often, and when they do it, it's always something special.

00:31:00.020 So Bannon, B-A-N-N-O-N, 9-8-9-8-9-8, to talk to Philip Patrick and the team.

00:31:06.260 You get all free information.

00:31:07.500 They'll inundate you with information, no cost, no obligation to learn about why gold has been a hedge against fiat currency for thousands of years.

00:31:18.500 So, Cortez, what am I about to I'm about to see something that's pretty special.

00:31:22.880 It took place the other night at Georgetown University, of which I think you're a more honored alumni than myself and Boris Epstein.

00:31:33.840 So talk to me about what this is.

00:31:36.420 You went into, let's say you went into very hostile territory.

00:31:40.240 Yeah, I'm not sure the university wants to claim any of us as an alum, but I was honored to go back there in historic Gaston Hall.

00:31:47.140 I've been there many times in the audience, and it was an honor to be on stage, but I accepted the invitation of Mehdi Hassan and Al Jazeera. 0.74

00:31:54.340 And now, look, I could think of a lot of better ways to spend a night than talking to the two of them in front of a university crowd that's incredibly hostile to our ideas.

00:32:00.540 But here's why I did it, Steve.

00:32:01.740 Number one, I think it's important for us to engage with the other side.

00:32:04.480 We know our ideas are better. We can win in that combat, that political combat.

00:32:09.320 But number two, Al Jazeera is a propaganda network, but it's one of the biggest channels in the world with massive global reach.

00:32:15.640 So I thought this is an opportunity for us to talk about the patriotic populist agenda of the United States

00:32:19.920 and explain why we believe what we believe to a global audience.

00:32:23.880 So I took it and we did an hour long debate, really more than conversation there.

00:32:29.560 And as you can imagine, you know, like I said, Mehdi is beyond hustle.

00:32:32.760 I found out during that interview, by the way, that he's an American citizen.

00:32:35.520 I didn't realize that. 0.99

00:32:37.020 And I made it very clear, and I'm not ashamed or afraid to say this, that he never should have been naturalized. 0.98

00:32:41.980 This country is not better because Mehdi Hassan is now a citizen of this country. 0.92

00:32:45.400 He hates our country.

00:32:46.380 And he's working actively as a propagandist to undermine our country now as a U.S. citizen, which, again, that was news to me.

00:32:53.020 But we talked mostly about Islam and immigration, so incredibly contentious topics, as you might imagine.

00:32:59.060 And I think, you know, obviously, I believe that I more than held my own and made the case in a very reasonable and calm way.

00:33:05.840 He was incredibly irritated the entire time.

00:33:08.780 That's sort of his personality.

00:33:10.560 Look, he's skilled. 0.99

00:33:11.400 He has a silver tongue, but he's a liar and he doesn't speak the truth and he hates our country. 0.99

00:33:15.480 So here's a taste of it. 0.99

00:33:17.300 And it's an hour long.

00:33:18.700 All of it's free on YouTube.

00:33:20.060 I encourage folks to go to my social media and see the whole thing.

00:33:22.500 Let's go ahead and play these clips right now.

00:33:25.720 But anyway, here's the bigger point.

00:33:28.000 What President Trump is doing is, and he's saving the country by doing this, is insisting that we only have lawful immigration to this country.

00:33:37.160 And by the way, despite all of my misgivings about the war, the reason I have no regrets at all about working extremely hard for President Trump, voting for him, working for him, working for his agenda now, is because he saved America by closing the border. 0.71

00:33:49.440 Biden had a wide open border with millions and millions of unvetted, unfiltered migrants 0.82

00:33:55.260 pouring into this country, and we were literally losing our nation. 0.97

00:33:59.400 And it's the fundamental reason why Trump was elected.

00:34:01.880 He delivered on that promise.

00:34:03.500 He continues to deliver on it now with internal...

00:34:05.420 This, though, you know, again, because I do so much polling, okay, and I did a national

00:34:08.760 poll of Hispanics, right, largely to find out what are Hispanics angry about? 0.87

00:34:12.140 Because they're angry right now. 0.86

00:34:13.140 They're angry at the country. 1.00

00:34:13.840 They're angry about immigration. 0.97

00:34:14.740 They're angry about immigration.

00:34:15.580 No, they're not.

00:34:16.140 Yes, they are.

00:34:16.520 No, they're not.

00:34:17.120 Yes, they are.

00:34:17.720 No, they're not.

00:34:18.260 And listen, this was in a Trump minus 31 poll, okay?

00:34:21.780 So 30% approval, 61% disapproval.

00:34:24.160 So I am not cooking the books, okay?

00:34:25.800 I'm not putting my finger on the scale and trying to get some sort of MAGA sample.

00:34:28.800 This was a brutal poll for President Trump.

00:34:31.440 However, solid majorities of Hispanics in the United States support the Trump deportation agenda.

00:34:37.880 And by the way, when I actually describe the deportation agenda, which the corporate media never does,

00:34:42.660 which is generous incentives to leave, right?

00:34:45.020 generous incentives, free flight home, cash in your pocket, the ability to reapply legally later,

00:34:49.200 when I describe that, we then get supermajorative. You don't describe the detention camps,

00:34:53.080 the masked men, the torture, the shootings. We then get up into the 60s and even the 70s

00:34:56.440 among Hispanics. In fact, the exact opposite. There is nothing virtuous about tolerating the 1.00

00:35:01.460 intolerant, okay? And Islam as an ideology is intolerant. It is intolerant of free speech. 0.98

00:35:07.280 It is intolerant of Western civilization. It is in fact antithetical. It's actually a peaceful

00:35:11.540 ideology it is it is antithetical to free speech particularly among other virtues that we value in

00:35:19.620 the united states and so for me to point that out is not hateful it is saying that we are going to

00:35:23.660 defend our sovereignty our culture and our way of life we don't want to be like iran or so i believe

00:35:30.980 in persuasion and how do we get to persuasion we do it through free speech okay free speech 0.91

00:35:35.480 which is antithetical to muslim dominated countries which is one of the key reasons perhaps 1.00

00:35:40.560 the key reason... This is the most anti-free speech 1.00

00:35:42.720 government in modern American history. ...that I don't think mass

00:35:44.280 migration from the third world in general is a good idea

00:35:46.460 for the United States, but particularly not mass migration

00:35:48.520 from Muslim-dominated countries 0.66

00:35:50.540 that do not believe in free speech. You don't think... Hold on, Steve. 1.00

00:35:52.260 You don't think... Can I just repeat what you just said? 0.68

00:35:54.460 You don't think immigration from the third 1.00

00:35:56.480 world is a good idea for the United States? 1.00

00:35:58.240 Mass migration, I said, to the United States is not a good idea.

00:36:00.620 No. Well, how do you define mass migration? Because we're not...

00:36:02.260 Well, on a massive scale. When you talk in that way,

00:36:04.400 it's very derogatory about immigrants who come from the

00:36:06.300 quote-unquote third world. Well, where did your father

00:36:08.400 come from, Steve? I think it's... Hold on. Steve, where did your dad

00:36:10.520 I'll answer that, but I think it's time for an overall immigration moratorium. 1.00

00:36:13.880 I don't care if you're coming from the U.K. 1.00

00:36:15.840 Legal. You're against legal immigration. 1.00

00:36:17.200 Or if you're coming from Iran. 0.91

00:36:18.260 You're against legal immigration.

00:36:19.220 I think we need a pause, yes. We need a moratorium. We need a timeout. 0.99

00:36:22.020 Where did your dad come from in the 1950s?

00:36:23.480 We've done it previously.

00:36:24.420 But the thing is, I am not being discriminatory in any way on my call for immigration. 1.00

00:36:30.980 I don't want immigrants from Sweden, okay? I don't want immigrants from anywhere. 1.00

00:36:34.280 Donald Trump loves immigrants from white South Africa, which is completely coincidental. 0.96

00:36:37.380 It's time for us to close the door to America to assimilate the immigrants that we have here and then decide. 0.80

00:36:42.840 But if you say I don't want immigrants from Sweden, fine. 1.00

00:36:45.480 That's you trying to be consistent. 0.96

00:36:46.940 But when I see you tweeted this the day of this taping, check to Twitter. 1.00

00:36:50.560 Muslim mass migration will destroy our country and our way of life. 1.00

00:36:53.760 I believe that kind of. 1.00

00:36:57.340 Cortez, people do not realize how hard it is what you just did.

00:37:02.320 It's on a one of the biggest propaganda channels in the world.

00:37:06.580 right al jazeera uh financed by you know all the the the qatar and all the other guys qatar's in

00:37:13.980 business with the muslim brotherhood you're in a hostile environment of georgetown among all the

00:37:19.440 intellectuals that that lead there and you've got him who's one of the most obnoxious guys 0.99

00:37:24.500 in all of media and a very good debater so what you did is a rock i really want the people to

00:37:29.980 watch the whole in fact we ought to teach us in schools about how to land a punch and then get

00:37:34.860 in the clinch and then land another punch because that is a tough environment. Yeah well by the way

00:37:40.400 when you talk about punching I will tell you part of what it taught me to do this kind of verbal

00:37:44.280 sparring is actual physical sparring and I really believe that is boxing and a lot of violent sports

00:37:49.560 can do this for you but I think boxing most of all and I encourage all young men to at least

00:37:53.920 participate in some level of boxing because what it teaches you to do is to remain calm amidst

00:37:59.240 violence which is a very difficult counterintuitive activity right but if you don't remain calm

00:38:04.820 no matter what kind of shape you're in, no matter how fit you are, you're going to run out of gas

00:38:08.760 if you don't stay calm in the ring. So I learned that in the boxing ring. It translates often

00:38:12.900 into the political ring when you're sparring there. But then also, of course, we've got to

00:38:16.660 do our homework. You have to be ready, right? Sit down with no notes in front of a very hostile

00:38:21.260 environment. He's got all of the notes. He's got them talking in his ear. You know, it's not a fair

00:38:25.100 fight, but if you're well prepared enough, if you've really, really done your homework, I would

00:38:29.500 say on top of that, if you say a prayer before you go out there and if the Holy Spirit is helping to

00:38:33.620 guide you and you've done your homework and you've done your preparation and you have the mental

00:38:37.180 stamina and the mental calm to engage in those kinds of fights. It's not for everybody, but

00:38:41.700 thankfully it's a gift that I have and I'm happy to use it. And I will tell you this, by the way,

00:38:45.860 afterwards, I actually did have several students talk to me about how they particularly respected

00:38:51.300 that I brought up free speech, that there's nothing noble about us inviting in hordes of people

00:38:56.360 who utterly oppose free speech, because a lot of lefties on college campuses will claim at least

00:39:01.780 that they are adherence to free speech. Well, I'm a free speech maximalist. And that is part

00:39:06.380 of the reason that I think Islam is antithetical to Western civilization. It's one of the key 1.00

00:39:10.700 reasons, in fact, why it's totally incompatible with American life. And now when I said that in

00:39:14.740 front of the Georgetown crowd, of course, I mean, they absolutely hissed. They couldn't believe that

00:39:17.980 somebody would say that. They want to pretend that that's bigoted. No, there is nothing virtuous

00:39:22.800 about tolerating people who will destroy our very way of life. There's nothing noble or virtuous

00:39:29.240 about that, and we need to start saying so. By the way, you couldn't tell there, but the woman 1.00

00:39:33.100 who told me that Islam is a religion of peace, that is Olivia Troy, who was the national security

00:39:38.500 advisor to Vice President Mike Pence. So think about that for a moment. Talk about a viper

00:39:45.180 inside the tent in the first Trump term, and there she is regurgitating that ludicrous George W. Bush 1.00

00:39:52.060 lie that Islam is a religion of peace. That would sure be news to the hundreds of thousands of U.S.

00:39:57.460 soldiers who served us in the Middle East wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, that it's a religious

00:40:01.420 of peace. That would sure be news to the families who still mourn the folks lost in the attacks of

00:40:05.760 9-11 and many other terror attacks upon Americans, both at home and all over the globe. So let's not

00:40:11.900 speak in niceties and in platitudes, but rather let's deal in truth. We can state it calmly. We

00:40:17.440 don't have to get emotional the way Mehdi Hassan does. But let's speak in truth. And the truth is

00:40:22.620 that Islam is not compatible with the American way of life. It is not consistent with Western 1.00

00:40:27.520 civilization. And the Islamists have already forced wholesale changes to the culture of Europe. Let's 1.00

00:40:33.860 learn from them. Let's not go down that awful path because it could happen here. And there are

00:40:39.260 inklings of it here, places like Dearborn and Hamtramck, Michigan, where I've gone and exposed

00:40:43.660 what's going on. And one way to beat them back is to beat not just Abdul Rahman Muhammad al-Sayed, 0.87

00:40:50.780 but also those who might not be Arab or Muslim, but who nonetheless subscribe to his toxic beliefs, 0.91

00:40:58.280 people like the constantly hijab adorning Peggy Flanagan in Minnesota. 0.96

00:41:04.780 What I most enjoyed about it was not just Troy, the National Security Advisor said, 0.72

00:41:09.380 oh no, this is a very peaceful ideology.

00:41:11.980 The best thing was the gasps from the audience when you talk about, 0.92

00:41:16.780 oh no, no, no, I want a moratorium on legal immigration. 0.95

00:41:19.720 their minds he couldn't handle that and their minds couldn't handle it it was like holy hang on 0.67

00:41:25.600 this is all about illegal immigration oh no no no no no we want a moratorium to basically shut down

00:41:31.060 all of this phony legal immigration the looks of the crowd with the camera god they were absolutely

00:41:36.580 shocked it also shows the limited amount of information as you know we've been promoting 0.52

00:41:40.840 this now for a couple of years that we have to do it the h1b visa scam all that that audience

00:41:46.160 never hears that they were absolutely stunned that you had misspoke the guy clearly misspoke

00:41:52.040 he couldn't be talking about about legal yeah steve i i think they couldn't believe that

00:41:57.660 somebody who is you know literate right would come up with a phrase like that that's the kind

00:42:01.440 of bubble that they live in uh and by the way a lot of the older folks who were there i found out

00:42:05.600 didn't have a particular connection to the university which is fine they just live in the

00:42:08.620 neighborhood so these are just super wealthy washingtonians okay lobbyist lawyers who live

00:42:13.520 in the wonderful upscale neighborhood of Georgetown

00:42:16.140 who came over to see their hero,

00:42:18.200 Mehdi Hassan, for the night.

00:42:19.460 And then they had to listen to this guy, Cortez,

00:42:21.520 who seems to some degree be educated,

00:42:23.980 know what he's talking about. 0.97

00:42:25.140 But then he says, wait, stop all immigration?

00:42:27.640 Are you kidding?

00:42:28.340 People believe that?

00:42:29.400 Yeah, actually, a lot of people believe that.

00:42:30.960 Now, and by the way, let's be honest about this.

00:42:32.280 I don't think it's a majority position yet,

00:42:34.320 but I think we're getting there, Steve.

00:42:35.660 And I think we're continuing to make the case.

00:42:37.500 And it's important for people

00:42:39.160 who are in the world of ideas like you and I are

00:42:41.200 to push the envelope here

00:42:43.280 and say, hey, wait a second, of course shut down illegal, but we need to actually go further than

00:42:47.100 that. Where do we get all your content? We're going to get back to you tomorrow and the next

00:42:51.660 days as we run up to the end of early voting in these states, particularly the northern flank,

00:42:59.940 Yes, please go to cortesinvestigates.com for everything. And you can also follow me on

00:43:04.640 Twitter at Steve Cortez, Cortez with an S at the end, particularly see my new Wisconsin ad that's

00:43:13.980 Thank you, brother.

00:43:14.960 Okay, we're going to go to Arizona.

00:43:29.480 but at least it didn't when it looked like it when we started the show.

00:43:34.400 Maybe that's changed.

00:43:35.200 Also, Brazil, a government in exile,

00:43:38.420 is coming to the United States of America.

00:45:19.640 The president is making a strategic trip.

00:45:23.320 In the last week of this campaign, the all-important midterm campaign, went to South Texas Corpus Christi.

00:45:29.040 He's now en route to Lubbock, Texas.

00:45:31.400 Our own Tara Dahl is there.

00:45:33.040 And Tara is going to take over the coverage at the top of the hour on the main RAV channel.

00:45:37.440 channel. We're going to continue on from Jerusalem, Brazil, other places as breaking

00:45:42.960 international news. Tara, put us in the room before you go get ready for your coverage.

00:45:49.000 What's it like, sir? Well, the speakers have begun, Steve, and every single seat in this place

00:45:56.180 is packed. It is completely packed. And the president is expected to speak at 6 p.m. tonight,

00:46:02.360 But the enthusiasm, I mean, this is the most patriotic place, I think, in America, and it's all red, white, and blue.

00:46:09.240 So your listeners are going to want to stay tuned because we're going to be having the president live when he starts at 6 p.m.

00:46:15.060 If that's the time that he comes, we don't know if he'll be a little late, but that's the plan right of now.

00:46:20.640 Is it 6 p.m. local he's supposed to be there to speak, or is it 6 p.m.?

00:46:25.280 Is that 7 p.m. Eastern?

00:46:27.160 6 p.m. local, Central Time, 7 p.m. Eastern, yes.

00:46:30.080 Okay, 7 p.m. Eastern.

00:46:31.340 So you're going to take basically you're doing the run up over the John Solomon hour.

00:46:35.440 OK, ma'am, there's going to be great speakers.

00:46:37.080 And of course, you get the one and only Tara Dahl.

00:46:40.620 So we want to thank you so much for returning from active duty with President Trump to rejoin

00:46:45.620 us here at Real America's Voice and to anchor our coverage from Lubbock, Texas.

00:46:49.740 Tara Dahl, thank you so much.

00:46:51.340 Appreciate you as always.

00:46:54.580 It's great to be with you, Steve.

00:46:56.800 Thank you, ma'am.

00:46:57.540 what a great woman i've had an opportunity to work with tara since my early days at breitbart

00:47:04.840 where she was one of our mainstays and of course in the white house and for president trump over

00:47:09.360 the state department national security council everywhere been uh fighting the fight for the

00:47:13.380 christians in the middle east for years and years and years okay let's go to arizona mark fincham

00:47:20.440 joins us and mark i am going to probably hold you up through the six o'clock hour because i want to

00:47:24.880 make sure people understand. We had a great analysis in Texas, and Mark, we got a dogfight

00:47:31.200 on our hands here, but there's a path to victory if we can kind of herd everybody, right, get the

00:47:38.200 early vote out this week, and then have a great game day showing. But the Democrats are very

00:47:43.420 organized, they're very well financed. For their people, they've got a very strong pitch. Unfortunately,

00:47:48.580 some of their candidates are kind of radical, which I think is helping us because some of our

00:47:52.560 pitch uh maybe is not resonating like it once did uh but arizona is another dog fight and it's

00:47:59.180 looked fairly grim there i think for a while but it now looks like he's turning around walk us

00:48:03.860 through what the math shows us and if we put up mark's charts while he's talking i think it'd be

00:48:08.020 great yeah yeah steve you gotta love steve cortez because he put a fine point on this

00:48:12.760 what we're facing is a party that is their go-to is to lie i mean katie hobbs has got 14 million

00:48:22.500 dollars to spend on billboards that are essentially claiming victory for everything republicans did 0.74

00:48:29.220 notice she's not talking about the green new deal which has caused gas prices to go up that's not

00:48:35.340 part of the conversation so what we've got right now um when you and i talked yesterday hang on

00:48:40.880 hang on slow down because i am going to go to jerusalem brazil but i'm gonna hold you to the

00:48:44.220 break can we take down the chart denver i know i asked for it but i gotta i gotta show fincham

00:48:48.500 in all his glory finchum is that like i had i had winston marshall on here last night

00:48:54.000 from rome i'm talking about the new crusaders is that a is that is this your new crusader garb

00:49:00.360 that you're wearing out in arizona what is what is that you've got on brother because i'm buying

00:49:04.120 one right now this is a war room emblem with a with a knights templar yeah yeah it's knights

00:49:11.260 templar 2.0 go to knights templar international that's amazing and it's got they'll overnight

00:49:17.480 I see the worm logos in front of you.

00:49:19.660 I see it.

00:49:20.220 I mean, well, hey, the merch department, I think I got some new merch.

00:49:23.520 Hold it.

00:49:24.080 You actually have a Knights Templar, what is it, a smock?

00:49:30.200 It's a hoodie.

00:49:32.300 It's a hoodie?

00:49:33.060 It's a Knights Templar hoodie?

00:49:36.720 Yeah.

00:49:38.120 Bencham, you're the best.

00:49:39.800 You're going to love it.

00:49:40.480 Hold it.

00:49:41.800 So hold it.

00:49:42.760 Okay, so we talked to Biggs' campaign, talked to all the folks we know so well down there.

00:49:46.520 The first thing they say is Katie Hobbs, every time she opens her mouth, she's lying.

00:49:52.460 But I want to be specific here because there are a lot of people around the nation, around the world, that are not that involved in Arizona politics.

00:49:58.660 What specifically are you guys talking about?

00:50:00.840 When you say that Katie Hobbs is lying and that's all her campaign is, is a series of lies, what does that mean? 0.98

00:50:06.380 Well, she's taking credit for passing a tax plan for the Arizona voters that was in alignment, 100 percent conformity with the big, beautiful bill. 1.00

00:50:19.740 She vetoed it three times.

00:50:22.240 It wasn't until we held her feet to the fire and forced her into the box.

00:50:27.500 We were within days of government shutdown in the state of Arizona.

00:50:31.040 So she had no choice but to sign off on it.

00:50:33.900 But it wasn't because she did a volunteer.

00:50:35.740 She went kicking and screaming to do this.

00:50:38.920 So that's why we've gone from yesterday, we were R-plus 5,800 votes to today.

00:50:45.700 Not votes, I'm sorry, ballots, okay?

00:50:48.700 Now we're R-plus 11,500.

00:50:51.820 So our trend line is moving up.

00:50:54.200 We were up from three days ago, we had like 1,000.

00:50:58.140 The thing that we're concerned about right now is independence.

00:51:02.600 Will independence be a factor in this?

00:51:04.620 they're always a factor. Independents carry a huge amount of weight in Arizona. They're one

00:51:09.980 third of the polity. So now independents have to understand, do you want four more years of

00:51:16.320 a dysfunctional liar who is getting bribes, getting bribes to her campaign for handing 1.00

00:51:23.880 sweetheart deals to government service contractors? And then she claims, oh, well, 1.00

00:51:29.040 we didn't do anything wrong. And she's got an attorney general who basically says, ah, no,

00:51:34.620 there's nothing to see here.

00:51:36.860 That's why the Arizona Supreme Court appointed a special master

00:51:40.500 to come in and take a look at that,

00:51:42.120 because even the Supreme Court has started asking a question,

00:51:45.140 wait a minute, for you to see there's no there there,

00:51:47.560 when you have one contractor out of all the contractors

00:51:51.100 who gets a 30% increase in state funding,

00:51:54.380 when everybody's got the problem,

00:51:57.100 that is what we call political corruption.

00:51:59.920 And I think even though Hobbs has got the $14 million

00:52:03.040 against Andy Biggs' $4 million.

00:52:06.260 She's able to punch.

00:52:07.580 We're punching the signal through the noise,

00:52:09.900 and I think that the majority of people are starting to get it.

00:52:13.660 Hang on.

00:52:14.320 I'm going to come back,

00:52:15.440 and I want to talk about how you're punching through that noise.

00:52:17.780 Also, why has Andy had such a difficult time raising money 0.95

00:52:21.740 against Hobbs, who's obviously a blatant liar,

00:52:24.980 and so many people have problems with her. 0.93

00:52:26.820 Then we're going to look at the math,

00:52:28.580 and we're going to talk about the independent vote,
