this is what you're fighting for I mean every day you're out there what they're doing is blowing
00:00:11.680
people off if you continue to look the other way and shut up then the oppressors the
00:00:18.660
authoritarians get total control and total power because this is just like in Arizona this is just
00:00:24.580
like in Georgia it's another element that backs them into a quarter and shows their lies and
00:00:29.320
misrepresentations is why this audience is going to have to get engaged as we've told you this is
00:00:33.600
the fight all this nonsense all this spin they can't handle the truth war room battleground here's
00:00:40.640
your host stephen k bannon wednesday 18th september anno domini 2000 and 24 harnwell here at the helm
00:00:51.220
filling in for stephen k bannon we're going to go straight into the show now with with josh hammer
00:00:57.820
and talk about the um the presumed israeli strike against hezbollah in lebanon josh good morning
00:01:07.420
um the first thing i'd like to say is that this is seems to be an astonishing feat um obviously there
00:01:16.360
are wider strategical interests um and it was expected for some time right that that israel was
00:01:22.940
going to make a move um on lebanese territory against hezbollah um but i don't think anybody
00:01:29.060
had in mind an operation of this type of sophistication um and obviously you know we're
00:01:37.820
going to drill down on this for the posse to to explain exactly what's happened yesterday and what
00:01:43.220
happened today there's been further um explosions um noted at a specific funeral for three of these
00:01:51.060
victims um before i ask you just to start unwrapping this um my hesitation as as an international
00:02:00.240
correspondent myself here the um my hesitation is that this is such a feat an accomplishment
00:02:07.060
on behalf of presumably mossad right the idf working together but such a technically perfect strike
00:02:15.980
it's possible that the analysis and this seems to be the case from from what i've been studying over
00:02:22.140
the last 24 hours the the analysis seems to be being sucked into the vacuum of what an amazing
00:02:29.020
feat this was i mean after um as you were pointing out to me earlier on today after the the the humiliation
00:02:36.160
for the israeli security services after october the the 7th a strike of this brilliance seems to be
00:02:43.580
dominating the narrative rather than i think what this might mean um as part of the wider if i used
00:02:50.680
the words war but first off josh good morning to tell me um what exactly happened here um there's some
00:02:56.680
sort of third 3 000 pages primed to explode at the israelis command do we know yet um how this
00:03:06.320
how this took place was it an overloading of the lithium batteries or were there explosives placed
00:03:12.580
into each and every device and if so how did they actually go about doing that on a technical basis
00:03:18.460
so ben always great to join you so i i guess let's start with the with the tactics and then we can kind
00:03:24.820
of move towards strategy and geopolitics and all of that so i i mean this is an astonishing operation
00:03:30.000
i mean we should not mince words here this is a remarkably sophisticated spy agency operation
00:03:36.360
as one of my friends who actually himself formerly worked for the cia told me yesterday he said that
00:03:42.240
this is the kind of thing that spy agencies around the world will be studying 20 years from now as to
00:03:47.820
how exactly this happened the details of which we do not exactly know yesterday it seems like it seemed
00:03:55.960
like we thought that there was an explosive an explosive powder called petn that was essentially
00:04:02.100
smuggled into the roughly four to five thousand hezbollah pagers likely in the warehouse before
00:04:07.760
they were actually shipped out there which if true i guess regardless of the means regardless
00:04:13.160
we presume it's israel of course mossad idf you know they had access to the iran hezbollah supply chain
00:04:19.660
every which way so they had the intel to know that hezbollah was switching to these pagers which
00:04:24.500
humorously enough hezbollah was switching to these pagers because they thought that this was their way
00:04:29.360
of evading the mossad israeli drag net they thought that if they didn't have two-way cell phone
00:04:34.700
communication then their location their plans and so forth would actually be harder to pick up
00:04:39.160
that was actually kind of funny enough why they switched to pagers in the first place obviously that
00:04:43.100
bet did not pay off particularly well for them but israel apparently had access to the pagers
00:04:47.820
every which way of the supply chain when it got to the warehouse when it was disseminated
00:04:51.260
and you know an under-discussed brilliant element of this ben talk about four to five thousand
00:04:57.120
pagers essentially detonating and mass effectively what it seems like mossad did was they sent out a
00:05:02.220
mass message to all of the hezbollah operatives therefore they all checked their pager when they
00:05:06.380
checked it it exploded but the fact that this all happened it gave them a snapshot in time where they
00:05:12.340
actually saw the lights pop up on a map so you could actually see where hezbollah is i mean there's
00:05:19.160
no better intelligence than that you literally see based on which pagers are exploding who is where
00:05:24.620
all throughout lebanon all throughout syria you know perhaps a little bit in in jordan as well but
00:05:29.420
primarily those two countries and then today you had the two-way walkie-talkies exploding as well so
00:05:34.680
that that is why we think maybe it wasn't the pet and maybe it was this these lithium batteries
00:05:39.180
exploding but regardless what the actual means was it's an astonishing coup from assad as you alluded
00:05:44.300
to as a kind of thing they desperately needed to try to regain their their credibility and the
00:05:48.860
reputation coming up on a year after the october 7th massacre so it's a huge tactical victory
00:05:54.480
for massad and for israel i guess the broader question of course is what it means for strategy
00:05:59.100
and geopolitics and also i suppose for netanyol's domestic uh position right now um if it's if it was
00:06:10.880
the um the lithium batteries being overloaded what does it say about the origins of this speculation
00:06:19.320
this story which seems to be quite detailed um in its analysis that this was via um hungary
00:06:26.180
um uh and i think tyranese with a tyranese branded pages the tyranese company if that's just
00:06:34.600
share cover um where does that story come i mean i asked the question half knowing the answer but where
00:06:41.040
does that story come from and how come it has settled in so well and so quickly well look i mean anytime
00:06:48.580
you're blaming a place like taiwan i mean i think we know exactly where that sort of story is coming
00:06:52.960
from i mean that's that's clearly coming from china you know i mean there was there was a rumored
00:06:58.840
discovery uh so there were you know there's a thing called the philadelphia corridor so switching i
00:07:03.640
guess from the hezbollah front to the hamas front just for a second here there's a thing called the
00:07:06.920
philadelphia corridor which is the egyptian gaza border it's just south of rafa which is hamas's
00:07:13.400
southernmost strong called in gaza and one of netanyahu's war aims he's actually battling on
00:07:18.300
this front with many in the in the idf leadership who disagree with him but one of one of netanyahu's
00:07:22.580
announced war aims is that israel cannot any longer cease control of the philadelphia corridor in other
00:07:29.620
words they have to know exactly what egypt is trying to smuggle in or jihadists are trying to
00:07:34.420
smuggle in via egypt into gaza and so forth i say all that as context because it was about two to
00:07:40.660
three months ago or so that israeli intelligence and the military apparently found some some chinese
00:07:48.380
remnants there in the corridor put another way there was some physical evidence left behind from
00:07:54.920
the pla from the people's liberation army that they were actually involved there in assisting hamas
00:07:59.400
which should not be a shocker because china has taken massive steps over the past few years to
00:08:04.400
actually distance itself from israel some people think that that china might be a little peaked they
00:08:09.520
might be hurt because israel refused to work with china to build their mass port in haifa one of
00:08:14.780
israel's more important maritime ports on the mediterranean so china has kind of gone all in over the past
00:08:19.980
three to four years for the palestinian cause for the broader anti-israel cause they actually hosted a
00:08:25.980
a palestinian authority hamas rapprochement of sorts in beijing just about a month ago you had
00:08:31.400
hamas and mahmoud abbas from the plo basically side by side there so when you put all that in context
00:08:38.640
then it makes a lot of sense that china is going to take the side of hezbollah and start blaming
00:08:43.200
china's own arch rival their taiwan as well in a story like this again we don't actually know for
00:08:48.700
sure whether or not it was lithium batteries or this pet and explosive powdery substance we don't know
00:08:53.780
the exact means yet but it is a huge coup for israel whether they were working in tandem with other
00:08:58.520
countries or working on the run and you know frankly it's exactly the kind of morale boost that they
00:09:03.440
need right now it was only a handful of days ago that the houthis in yemen successfully shot a
00:09:07.900
surface-to-surface missile that landed right near ben-gurion airport in central israel thank god no
00:09:13.400
one was was killed by that but but but israel is looking pretty vulnerable right now you know we
00:09:17.820
we shouldn't lie about that i mean there is unprecedented in modern times jihadist activity
00:09:22.480
all throughout judea and samaria at the west bank and cities like annapolis janine various other
00:09:27.120
terrorist strongholds this this is a serious serious multi-front war and for for israel to pull off
00:09:32.560
a massive coup like this it's just a massive morale boost for the israeli people and also a
00:09:37.000
political victory as you said for netanyahu himself if it's a question that the lithium batteries
00:09:42.960
that the israelis have discovered a way of super overcharging these batteries in a very short time
00:09:49.100
to make them explode um that has national security implications for every other nation on the planet
00:09:56.520
right right you would think so because it means that everyone who's carrying a smartphone on
00:10:02.380
presumably not only a smartphone if they can do this to pages if they can do this to walkie-talkies
00:10:07.900
and anyone with it with a with a lithium battery device that they carry on their person
00:10:12.820
is carrying potentially a small explosive device um uh all our world leaders all of our legislators
00:10:20.200
anyone on an airplane uh this has massive implications and there's a crucial i think
00:10:28.080
public policy takeaway from that ben if it indeed is in fact lithium batteries not this explosive
00:10:33.560
substance for what it's worth my own personal prediction is i actually do think it probably was
00:10:37.760
just mossad getting access to a warehouse putting substance in but but you're right if it is lithium
00:10:42.180
batteries then that does have sprawling implications i'll tell you what my number one public policy
00:10:46.600
takeaway from that is if that is corroborated to be true which is supply chain integrity and you have
00:10:53.100
to know exactly what is going into your products at every single level of the supply chain put another
00:10:58.160
way if it actually ends up being lithium batteries and it could be especially given the fact that
00:11:03.560
earlier today we saw non-pager devices these two-way walkie-talkie start to explode so we definitely
00:11:08.540
cannot rule out the possibility that it was lithium batteries you know what that means to me as an
00:11:13.960
american as someone who opposes globalism and wants to see a a more robust economic nationalism is that
00:11:19.780
we need to double triple quadruple quintuple and so forth down on getting our our goods and at every
00:11:27.860
element the inputs of the supply chain away from countries just like china away from countries that
00:11:33.480
do not share our geopolitical interests against out of those countries that wish us harm you know it
00:11:38.460
really ought to make economic policymakers in washington dc and in other western capitals all throughout
00:11:43.820
the world to to feel all that more motivated to extricate themselves from this failed this failed
00:11:50.380
entanglement this dancing with the devil if you will this this false into this false economic ties
00:11:57.180
with china ever since really dang xiao ping in the late 1970s but especially since china's ascension
00:12:02.820
to the world trade organization in the early 2000s i'm sure finally in the last um two minutes could
00:12:10.020
just tell me if if you would um just go down and break down a little bit more um about bb netanyahu's
00:12:16.200
position that um strengthened uh but for how long so bb is in an interesting position i guess you would
00:12:25.460
say for lack of a better term there so he he was looking pretty precarious in the polling in the first
00:12:30.220
two to three months or so after october 7th as makes sense this is an unprecedented tragedy that
00:12:35.300
happened under his watch there but but he did fairly quickly regain his stature in the polling
00:12:40.420
after that for the very simple reason that after that kind of initial knee-jerk reaction i think the
00:12:44.920
israeli people basically looked at the other options and they said okay i mean i i think we're basically
00:12:50.100
stuck with him for better or for worse there's there's really no better option out there and you
00:12:54.360
know the israeli left ben has has been utterly decimated politically in israel over the past 15 20 years
00:13:00.000
there really is no israeli left actually you know the labor party was once the founding party of israel
00:13:06.060
david ben-gurion the first prime minister labor controlled the country for the first roughly three
00:13:10.420
decades of israel's existence ever since the failures of the land for peace agreements the the
00:13:16.760
second intifada ever ever since 2000 2005 and yasser arafat and all of that evil the israeli left has
00:13:23.080
been utterly decimated labor has has low single digit seats currently in the knesset last i checked
00:13:29.120
they're a total non-factor so there's really no other game in town and netanyahu also doesn't
00:13:34.600
really have any particularly viable figures on the right to my challenge him for that leadership as
00:13:39.980
well so he he really is the guy right now and you know that that is a problem for israel insofar as
00:13:46.440
he's been there for a long time he's in his 70s they really ultimately do need someone to be groomed
00:13:51.380
to success to succeed him but you know if i were if i were a netanyahu political advisor or something
00:13:57.700
along those lines i would feel pretty confident about my position right now i don't think that
00:14:01.340
he's going anywhere anytime particularly soon he's having a bit of an issue right now with his defense
00:14:06.120
minister yoav galant we'll see the way that they that that plays out but ultimately netanyahu does
00:14:11.260
still call the shots and he ultimately does still have the favorability of a majority of the israeli
00:14:16.380
um sadly very sadly that is all we have time for josh uh had we more time i'd ask you whether you
00:14:25.200
believe the um the statements uh that israel hadn't communicated this operation to the u.s
00:14:33.940
beforehand and they only briefed afterwards whether you believe that and if you do believe that
00:14:39.760
um what you deduce that means for the for the u.s israel relationship but there's no time and ask
00:14:48.200
you that um josh where do people go to to keep up with your superb writings um newsweek and your
00:14:55.740
podcast yeah thank you so much ben so i host two shows the josh hammer show in america on trial with
00:15:00.960
josh hammer i'm also senior counsel at the article three project article three project.org and you can
00:15:05.540
follow me on x josh underscore hammer perfect josh many thanks for coming on the show we'll catch up
00:15:11.860
again with you soon always a pleasure ben thank you thanks josh um so just as we're moving now
00:15:18.740
directly on to the the aforementioned u.s election joined now with bill mcginley bill good uh good evening
00:15:26.840
to you can you um can you tell me a little bit now as we're definitely into the final two months
00:15:32.700
of this race um tell me if you wouldn't mind give me an update on on how the elections are going
00:15:38.500
specifically with a view because i know this is something very that's very close to your heart to
00:15:43.040
do with the the volunteering aspects um and how important it is for folk to to get involved not
00:15:50.840
only for the get out the vote aspect but also for the election integrity aspect too sure um as great
00:15:59.600
to be with you ben uh thanks for having me um one of the things that steve and i would always like to
00:16:04.160
talk about and that uh i've been talking about on the appearances coming up to this um is really how
00:16:10.120
um important the posse is and the role that they play uh both in terms of election integrity um for
00:16:16.960
signing up to be poll watchers receive the trainings getting shifted making sure that you follow
00:16:21.600
through on those shifts um and and basically be in eyes and ears in the polling places and wherever
00:16:28.340
else the the party needs you and president trump's campaign needs you but you know you ask where we
00:16:34.520
are with the election um you're right we're less than 50 days out and the election has begun in many
00:16:41.020
states um a lot of requests for absentee ballots are starting to come in and in some instances this week
00:16:46.740
we may see some ballots being mailed out to voters so the time the time's up um people need to engage
00:16:54.080
in this um really kind of take ownership of this election uh because president trump and jd vance they
00:17:01.120
can't do it all themselves they really need your help and uh one of the things that we always talk
00:17:06.560
about is really kind of the pervasiveness um and and how much dark money the dems have in terms of
00:17:14.340
funding their operations whether it's opposition research it's messaging get out the boat uh any
00:17:20.720
of the other important aspects of elections they've got a whole constellation of c4s and c3s that don't
00:17:28.800
disclose their donors that shift a lot of money between these various groups and put it down into the
00:17:34.400
battleground states to try and turn out those voters that they think are going to support uh kamala
00:17:41.080
harris and and uh and and and tim waltz and so this is where the volunteers um really make the
00:17:49.360
difference and the great equalizer in this election will be the volunteer army um that the trump campaign
00:17:56.620
and the republican party can put together to help the candidates up and down the ballot and so really
00:18:02.560
the checklist um for everybody is as follows number one make sure that your registration is up to date
00:18:10.200
current and satisfies law take ownership of your registration take the time to verify it and make
00:18:17.960
sure that you have satisfied all the requirements and that you are on the voter rolls as an eligible
00:18:24.200
legal voter number two make sure that at least 10 to 15 of your family friends and neighbors are doing
00:18:31.740
the same thing to make sure that their voter registrations are up to date satisfy law so that they can cast
00:18:38.340
their ballot number three you've got to contact these people and urge them to vote early every state's
00:18:46.100
voting laws are different so you're going to want to go to swamp the vote usa.com once again that's
00:18:52.800
swamp the vote usa.com there's a useful tool there that's going to help you determine the most convenient
00:18:59.420
way for you to vote now after the events of the past couple of months and how many twists and turns
00:19:04.940
we've had i don't think we need to uh uh express to everybody how important it is for you to get your
00:19:12.220
ballots in early don't wait until election day if you have an opportunity to cast your ballot early
00:19:18.940
god knows what's going to happen whether it's a weather storm a business trip that you suddenly get
00:19:23.820
called on something comes up with the family don't wait until the last minute find a way find a way to vote
00:19:30.300
that you have faith in find a way to vote that is early so you can bank your vote for president trump
00:19:36.140
and jd vance and all of the republicans up and down the ticket and get it in the other thing is go to
00:19:42.620
protect the vote.com if you are in a battleground state and we've talked about these many times from
00:19:49.260
nevada to arizona to wisconsin to michigan to pennsylvania to virginia to north carolina down to georgia
00:19:58.300
and the other congressional battleground states or senatorial battleground states like montana
00:20:03.020
california new york and others please go there and sign up to be a volunteer poll watcher we can't do
00:20:11.180
it without your help we need responsible intelligent people which i know the posse is who can exercise
00:20:18.940
good judgment to be our eyes and ears in the polling place but also to basically help us make sure that
00:20:26.780
all of the laws and rules are being followed um so that at the end of this when president trump
00:20:32.300
and jd vance are elected everybody can have faith in the process and confidence in the results and we
00:20:38.700
can beat back the attacks that we know are coming from the democrats if you look at all of the the
00:20:43.660
rhetoric that they have launched at president trump we need to do what he's been saying all along which
00:20:49.500
is make the margin of victory too big to rig uh bill are you um are you satisfied uh with the way
00:20:59.260
these things going specifically uh with regards to registering gop likely voters to vote um are you
00:21:09.500
satisfied with where we are uh 50 days away yeah we've seen a lot of significant gangs gains toward the
00:21:16.620
republican side based upon the energy and enthusiasm for president trump and jd vance but
00:21:23.500
i'm a big college football fan one of my heroes is one of the greatest college football and you
00:21:28.380
talk about what your potential is but you also talk about where you are right now the difference there
00:21:33.020
is called the capability gap and so i'm never happy i'm only the only way that i'm going to be happy
00:21:38.940
is if we get more people to register to vote for president trump and jd vance and then to cast their
00:21:44.700
ballots um for them if we are able to win i'll be happy but until that day i'm never going to be
00:21:51.740
happy and we need to press press press we need to make sure that we are getting be a force multiplier
00:21:57.420
that not only are you taking care of your own registration think of it in the ways when you
00:22:01.180
get on an airplane put your oxygen mask on first before you put it on somebody else make sure your voter

00:27:10.620
power to spy on innocent americans by monitoring our phone and email and tracking our movement across the
00:27:17.020
internet now jim rickards editor of the independent financial newsletter strategic intelligence and new
00:27:23.340
york times best-selling author is warning about a coming event that could elevate this governmental
00:27:28.860
surveillance to a terrifying new level in fact some of the guests i've had on the war room believe that
00:27:34.460
the government will soon expand their powers to track our every move if we say the wrong things on
00:27:40.700
social media donate to the wrong causes buy firearms or even vote maga the government may be able to
00:27:47.260
shut us out of our bank accounts i can't say for sure if this will happen but it's an interesting and
00:27:54.460
dire warning fortunately jim rickards an american patriot and friend of mine has made it his mission to

all this nonsense all this spin they can't handle the truth war room battleground with stephen k bannon
00:31:16.140
welcome back well now a hundred thousand arizonans who have registered to vote over the past 20 years
00:31:24.460
um mistakenly um mistakenly because they were considered to have provided proof of citizenship
00:31:32.140
due to a quirk in the motor vehicle department system has come to light um and obviously that's
00:31:40.380
like we're talking about a lot of a lot of people here uh who better to dig down on what this means
00:31:47.660
than gina swoboda chair of the arizona gop gina good evening to you um i was particularly um look there
00:31:57.580
are a number of things to get to get into on this uh i don't understand however if you just start with
00:32:03.100
with this if you if you wouldn't mind arizona voters who can't provoke provide proof of citizenship are only
00:32:11.340
permitted to vote in federal elections um thanks to a 2013 supreme court judgment i don't get that
00:32:21.020
if you can't prove your citizenship why are you allowed to vote in any election let alone
00:32:30.300
a presidential election i agree with you uh thank you for having me back so justice scalia
00:32:37.660
wrote the opinion in that supreme court case that's intertribal counsel for those that want to go
00:32:42.700
search it on bing and essentially congress created the elections assistance commission and they created
00:32:51.660
a federal voter registration form and when they did that it precluded the states under the supremacy
00:33:00.300
clause of the constitution right once the federal government you know takes a lane we can't um obviate
00:33:07.420
what they do so once they created their own registration form and the only requirement
00:33:13.180
for proof of citizenship on that federal form is that little checkbox that says yes i'm a citizen
00:33:20.060
right so in arizona we passed a law the people did it directly on the ballot and we said you must
00:33:26.860
have proof of citizenship to register we did that in 2004 and then we got sued and then we went to scotus
00:33:34.620
and justice scalia said okay arizona if someone uses the state of arizona's voter registration form
00:33:41.980
and they don't give you proof of citizenship you can totally reject them they don't get
00:33:46.300
registered at all but if someone uses this federal form that congress created under the supremacy clause
00:33:53.260
you don't have the right to say no to that form so you're going to have to register those people but
00:33:59.260
since the states get to decide who votes in state elections you can just make them federal only and
00:34:06.380
they can only vote in federal elections and we tried for 20 years almost to fix it to ask the eac
00:34:14.940
please put a footnote that says in arizona on this federal form you have to give citizenship and they
00:34:20.300
won't do it so with then we passed our law that said all right well voting by mail we get to decide how you vote
00:34:27.260
so let's try to add it to voting by mail citizenship let's try to add it for president the constitution
00:34:34.060
says the states decide how the electors are selected right we don't have a national popular vote thank god
00:34:40.300
or we'd get out voted by la and you know uh new york we have an electoral college for president so we
00:34:46.700
get to choose that that's that's what's sitting in front of the ninth circuit right now is us trying
00:34:52.220
to say for president to vote by mail you have to have citizenship but we're not going to make it
00:34:57.340
to scotus in time for this election so that's how we got here okay so tell me about this 98 000 right
00:35:04.620
um these are people who have registered to vote statewide um on the basis that um thanks to it was a 1996
00:35:14.620
ruling um in arizona that um applications for driving licenses driving licenses needed to have
00:35:22.300
uh you need to be able to prove your citizenship in order to get that id um and then a number of these
00:35:27.740
um driving licenses obviously have been renewed and somehow we'll assume accidentally um those who'd
00:35:35.100
registered before the 96 um ruling i that is to say they they first had their driving license without
00:35:41.740
having provided uh people's citizenship they they found their way on to the um to the uh to the to
00:35:48.860
the voting lists and you're fighting here to keep them on um and that's a bit counterintuitive
00:35:57.500
i am thank you i know it is so so when we start with the premise that no matter what happens with
00:36:03.100
these 98 000 people they're gonna get a federal only ballot either way okay so right now uh motor vehicle
00:36:11.180
when these people updated their driver's license so let's say the issue date on your driver's license
00:36:17.100
was 2011 the motor vehicle then you know was like oh this is a of someone who does not need proof
00:36:25.260
of citizenship so if they registered to vote and their license was originally before 96 but they
00:36:30.780
changed their address or they did something to it and then they registered to vote after 2004 it made
00:36:35.740
them the full ballot so like we just talked about if you registered after 2004 in arizona you should
00:36:42.140
have presented documented proof of citizenship instead the system said oh it's okay this this
00:36:48.220
person's good so now here as we sit here gina about gina can i can i just cut in to clarify here
00:36:54.620
because the consequence of that 96 um uh law in arizona is that um if you have a driving license
00:37:03.420
dated post 1996 that is in its in and of itself now proof of citizenship correct if you do not
00:37:11.900
provide proof of citizenship when you get a driver's license in arizona post 96 you're an f f like you
00:37:19.740
know fake you're an f type driver's license uh but anyone before didn't have that that didn't exist so
00:37:26.700
now we have these people so here we are it's 21 days so we start early voting in arizona the
00:37:32.940
military ballots go out thursday our civilians overseas so we're going to start voting essentially
00:37:37.900
on thursday in arizona and they just came to us yesterday the governor's office and the secretary
00:37:42.140
of state and said hey we found this glitch we have 98 000 people and right now they're getting a full
00:37:49.260
ballot they've always gotten a full ballot we've never asked them for any information they don't know
00:37:55.180
as we're talking to each other these people have no idea anything's wrong right no matter what we do
00:38:00.300
they're still going to get to vote in the presidential senatorial and congressional races the question is
00:38:05.340
do we want to take these and of these people i have my little note here 36 000 are republicans so
00:38:12.220
the majority of them are republicans between the ages of 40 and 60 give or take and they've been
00:38:17.740
voting a full ballot all this time do we want to deprive these all these 98 000 people from voting in
00:38:24.940
the legislative races or the ballot measures i've got ranked choice voting and and a constitutional
00:38:29.900
abortion amendment i need these people to vote i have a one vote majority in each house in my
00:38:35.660
legislature i do not want 36 000 republicans to have to go find their safety deposit box with their
00:38:41.180
information and bring it in and most importantly we're not going to get to them in time like what
00:38:46.540
would happen is we have to mail them a postcard from the recorder and then they got to find it and then
00:38:50.620
they got to come in a lot of these people are probably on the mail ballot list we'll just lose
00:38:55.020
votes is what's going to happen and we're too close you know in that uh nvra motor voter law you're not
00:39:00.620
supposed to do routine voter list cleanup within 90 days of the election because you're not supposed
00:39:05.180
to confuse the voters so i want it done properly i am a fierce fierce advocate for cleaning up the
00:39:11.420
voter rolls this is why this is why we filed suits to try to get this stuff done we ran out of time
00:39:17.740
because people ran the clock on us and as we're sitting here i've got a hundred thousand people
00:39:22.220
that don't have the right documentation either way they're going to get to vote in the federal race
00:39:26.940
so when that's my baseline for making a decision my decision is to keep these 36 000 republicans in
00:39:32.540
the state of arizona eligible to vote no on ranked choice voting hopefully and no on the abortion
00:39:37.980
amendment hopefully and keep my legislature so that's what we're going to do it's important i think to
00:39:43.580
point out because of the the time period here we're talking about specifically of being pre-1996
00:39:50.380
obtainers of of the old form of the driving license without the proof of citizenship that have now
00:39:55.900
been reviewed so one can assume because we're talking about sort of nearly 30 years ago that the
00:40:00.860
majority of these people are legitimate um uh u.s citizens it's only for fact that they haven't uh
00:40:07.900
uh physically proactively provided that that proof uh when they when they registered for their driving
00:40:15.260
uh license but it's absolutely genius absolutely astonishing to me that you have a whole state
00:40:20.700
a whole state as large as arizona um with all the apparatus and all the people working for it
00:40:26.300
it doesn't it absolutely astonishes me that you can have an oversight of this nature that you can register
00:40:32.060
to vote on the basis of a driving license um but because of you know because you know it's been
00:40:39.020
grandfathered in if you will there might never have been at any point the demonstration of citizenship
00:40:44.300
behind that and and yet you have uh registered that yet you're on the registered voting rolls
00:40:50.140
um and that you know it's now as you say uh sort of less than two months away from from the election
00:40:58.220
and people are waking up to this now it's an astonishing especially after 2020 with all of
00:41:03.660
the attention on vote integrity it seems like uh you know what axios calls a quirk here i have no idea
00:41:10.140
how it is it's difficult to maintain a sense of uh trust and good faith um it's not the first thing
00:41:18.300
you would you you would check uh gina sadly that is all we have time for um very quickly where do people
00:41:24.380
go um to to help with the campaign uh to find out to follow your your um your advice uh on social
00:41:32.700
media yeah please go to at azgop on twitter go to azgop.com i'm filing an amicus brief today to make
00:41:41.260
sure i don't lose 36 000 republican votes against ranked choice voting and against the constitutional
00:41:46.460
abortion amendment so you can hit me at azgop.com forward slash donate and all the litigation that we
00:41:52.780
did and we're going to continue to fight to make sure these roles are clean and it's most important
00:41:57.340
to do this in the off year right so when i get past november 5th we're going to start filing everything
00:42:03.180
again in advance of the next cycle because we have to clean it up and we have to do it now
00:42:07.900
transparency is the only way thank you genius thanks very much for coming on the show uh once again
00:42:14.300
today god bless catch up again with you soon well my final guest now uh ryan walters the state uh
00:42:22.460
education superintendent for the state of oklahoma um ryan good evening to you when you last came on
00:42:28.380
the show uh to talk about the maneuver um to have the ten commandments and biblical instruction in in
00:42:36.700
all mandatory in all state uh classes i have to say my own personal social media can has never blown up
00:42:43.980
as much as much as people supporting you um and lo and behold now a month later it's clear that
00:42:51.420
you've been making all the right enemies um because of course the regime won't take those successes
00:42:57.820
lying down and you are now look i say this just i'm not going to talk about me but i've just come out
00:43:02.380
of five years worth of of being um criminally charged here in italy three separate cases and i was
00:43:09.340
eventually vindicated on all of them so i know what it's like to be the subject of of of political
00:43:14.860
prosecutions tell me about what's going on with you down in oklahoma then well thank you again for
00:43:20.940
having me on and happy to give everyone an update but you know we made a stand here in oklahoma we're
00:43:25.340
going to put the bible back in the classroom you know our kids deserve to know our history they deserve
00:43:29.340
to know the influence the bible had the ten commandments had in not only america but in western
00:43:33.900
civilization and we're going to put the bible back in every classroom well very quickly after that
00:43:38.940
we see attacks from the national teachers union and then we begin to see even some republicans
00:43:43.020
our speaker of the house here in oklahoma named charles mccall begins to launch an impeachment attack
00:43:47.820
on me to try to claim all of these charges and all of these issues with me that are just nonsensical
00:43:53.500
so frankly then i i went out publicly and said hey if you want to impeach me go ahead and do it
00:43:57.900
let's put it all out on the table because there's nothing there what you are trying to do
00:44:01.740
is use lawfare use intimidation to try to back me off of the positions that oklahomans hold most
00:44:08.140
americans hold and again we've got a lot of folks frankly even in our own party that talk the talk but
00:44:13.740
don't walk the walk and here's what we're doing here in oklahoma we are walking the walk we will
00:44:17.980
bring the bible back to the classroom we will bring back an understanding of american exceptionalism we will
00:44:23.100
not bow to a woke mob or to the left or to their tactics of weaponizing the legal system
00:44:28.220
outstanding um tell me can you tell me a bit about these these um these um suggestions
00:44:36.140
that you're somehow involved in the misuse of i gather there's a grand jury now um misuse of covid
00:44:43.180
relief funds yeah look i mean our local media has put a lot of misinformation out there around that
00:44:49.180
there's an issue there that we dealt with years ago um that again i've been cleared of any kind of issue
00:44:54.780
or any kind of problem there with that but again you begin to see our local media try to pick back
00:44:59.100
up on these things to try to regenerate headlines and issues and here's the reality we have continued
00:45:05.500
to bring conservative values into government we've continued to defend parents we've continued to push
00:45:12.060
the radical teachers union out of the classroom and again every week i've got a new headline i'm
00:45:16.300
dealing with from our left-wing status media here in oklahoma and we're going to continue to fight
00:45:21.100
through we're going to continue to let oklahoma and see we run the most transparent uh administration
00:45:25.820
in state history we have been very clear about everything that's going on we have provided um the
00:45:31.260
type of change that people have demanded in government they want transparency accountability
00:45:35.500
and they want to see conservative values in action that's what we're bringing to the people of
00:45:39.900
oklahoma frankly we're leading the country and doing things like bringing the bible back to the
00:45:43.580
classroom school choice merit pay and a true understanding of an of our history and again i believe
00:45:49.500
if we're going to continue to be the greatest country in the history of the world we have to
00:45:53.580
teach our history our kids have to know what makes us exceptional how do we fight out of this and again
00:45:58.540
when you see kamala harris and you see tim waltz they're the opposite of that they want kids to
00:46:02.780
be ashamed of their country ashamed of our history they want them to hate this country we have to continue
00:46:07.820
to fight back against that because here's the reality you create a generation that hates this country
00:46:12.540
america will that will cease to be america we will not be that country that leads the free world
00:46:17.900
and so this is an existential threat that we're facing here and so we have to push back against
00:46:22.460
this agenda we've got to get president trump back in the white house and we've got to make
00:46:26.300
sure that his agenda is carried out in the states you know it's almost a case looking at the legal
00:46:32.860
challenges brought against president trump and against steve bannon and against rudy giuliani
00:46:38.380
and against peter navarro and against yourself here yeah it's almost a case that any any america first
00:46:45.100
politician presenting themselves to um to the election this is these are the battle scars this
00:46:51.660
is just this is a sign of the authenticity that you are actually fighting the regime and making some
00:46:57.580
headway if if a gop candidate were to present themselves i think this is we're now in this
00:47:02.300
situation but to present themselves and say oh i'm america first this you know i'm maga that and they have
00:47:07.420
no charges against them i think it's it's it's it's it's reasonable for the for the gop to well hang
00:47:13.900
on hang on why not why why show us your battle scars show us the convict you know sort of the charges and
00:47:19.420
the criminal cases that you that you've faced down then we'll believe that you really are on our side
00:47:25.580
and you're going to do something otherwise you know it's just another politician who's going to
00:47:29.740
as you say um talk the talk without walking look tell me briefly then um about oklahoma are the
00:47:36.060
bibles in the classrooms right now or is that yet to take place yeah no the mandates in place so
00:47:41.900
right now what we're doing is we're making sure the bibles are getting in the classrooms districts are
00:47:45.420
presenting them we are we've given out guidelines on how to teach from the bible its historical context
00:47:49.740
when it needs to be included in the classroom so again hey we're making sure when you talk about
00:47:53.740
the pilgrims you talk about american exceptionalism you talk about martin luther king jr abraham lincoln
00:47:58.460
you talk about these moments in american history you're going to refer to the bible you're going to
00:48:02.780
refer to their faith you're going to refer to the role that christianity played in america
00:48:06.700
and again frankly to do otherwise is academic malpractice you've got to have it in the
00:48:10.940
classroom so that's what we're doing right now is making sure that that is being implemented
00:48:14.380
so we are getting it in the classrooms right now we are seeing that um in real time here in oklahoma
00:48:19.260
and again to your point we are at a stage now where the left they they they lose elections so they try
00:48:24.700
to rig the elections right then they they don't get their policy agenda so they try everything they can
00:48:29.420
to undermine president trump and his administration then what do they result to lawfare they use the
00:48:35.100
law the legal system against you and to your point any maga uh politician they're going to do the same
00:48:39.980
thing to you they're going to try to stop you through the courts then lastly they have even gone
00:48:43.660
as far to go physical violence they want to kill president trump their goal is to kill the constitution
00:48:50.060
by killing president trump they know that he is the person who is going to protect your rights he is the
00:48:55.820
the person who is going to fight for you against the elites so they want him dead and it is sick
00:49:00.780
that we have reached this point in our society where the radical left will go to those means to
00:49:06.140
destroy your rights to destroy your country to destroy the exceptional america that we know it to be
00:49:14.140
by killing president trump so i want to be really clear they are trying to kill this country by assassinating
00:49:19.820
president trump my watch is that that is absolutely um outstanding analysis i i agree 100 um if i just
00:49:29.740

00:49:40.460
right book of revelation the apocalypse um future history right this is many people i'm included i could
00:49:48.300

my name is trevor comstock i'm one of the co-creators of sacred human and i wanted to share just a little bit
00:53:39.020
more about our brand for those who may not know of us yet but about six months ago we decided to
00:53:44.060
launch sacred human with really the simple mission being to provide american-made natural supplements
00:53:50.620
without all the artificial nonsense so unfortunately as many of you know a lot of these big corporate
00:53:56.700
supplements will include things like preservatives artificial ingredients and other additives that
00:54:01.820
really aren't benefiting your health so that's why we created sacred human really trying to fill this
00:54:06.940
gap of quality supplements and of course the beef liver being our flagship products for those who
00:54:12.700
don't know beef liver is loaded with highly bioavailable ingredients such as vitamin a b12 zinc coq10 etc and
00:54:21.980
because it is 100 grass-fed and natural your body is able to absorb these nutrients far better than taking
00:54:28.620
any other synthetic multivitamin or any other synthetic vitamin in general so we have some other amazing
00:54:35.740
