00:00:00.000 Hello, everybody. Welcome back to the Gains for Girls podcast. We have a very special
00:00:12.060 episode today because we are announcing a project that has been in the works for a long
00:00:17.820 time now. It is long overdue. But first, be sure to check us out at outkick.com to see
00:00:24.660 all things Gains for Girls. Be sure to check out my new docu-series on Fox Nation. It is called
00:00:31.640 Trans Fixed. It just came out. Really, really heartbreaking stories. Again, you can go back
00:00:36.600 and watch the episode with Prisha Mosley, an IWF ambassador. She is a detransitioner. I mean,
00:00:42.520 really, really heartbreaking stories, heartbreaking experiences, but important for people to hear.
00:00:49.880 We need to spread awareness. And so make sure you're sharing these episodes and share today's
00:00:55.500 episode because today we are having on Tulsi Gabbard. That's right. You know her. You love
00:01:01.620 her. She has been a role model for me since I really was thrust into the position and the platform that
00:01:09.940 I have now. She has been someone who I really admire. She is someone who gives advice and she
00:01:16.080 is so genuine and authentic. And she today is helping me launch the new project that is called
00:01:22.880 the Riley Gaines Stand With Women Scorecard. Super duper exciting. I've collaborated with
00:01:29.220 Independent Women's Forum to launch this. There are two major components and we'll get more into
00:01:33.860 to what this is in the episode here. But there are two major components to this scorecard.
00:01:39.120 Number one is the scorecard itself. It lists every single current incumbent and candidate running for
00:01:47.060 federal office. That's in the House. That's in the Senate. And that is who is running for president.
00:01:52.920 And there are scores for each incumbent, not for every candidate yet, because not every candidate has
00:01:58.980 had the opportunity to vote or sign on to a commitment that we are presenting to these candidates.
00:02:03.360 But you can earn a score. The scores are either Riley Gaines approved, failed, or unknown position.
00:02:10.460 What we are ranking here for the incumbents is how they score on voting with the Protection of Women
00:02:16.700 and Girls in Sports Act. What we know thus far is every single Republican who voted voted in favor
00:02:23.460 of protecting women and girls in sports. All 219 who voted and all 203 Democrats who voted voted in
00:02:32.000 opposition of protecting women and girls in sports. In the House, we also have the Title IX CRA vote,
00:02:38.640 which fell also on party lines. We have votes in the Senate. We have vows from the presidential tickets.
00:02:47.680 So really, really exciting stuff. In the second part of this scorecard, the second major component
00:02:52.540 is the battle box. This section works when you populate it with a matchup by checking the checkboxes
00:03:00.160 on the left-hand side of the scorecard. The feature will also be exportable by PDF.
00:03:05.700 And so you can repost this. You can share it. You can put it on X. You can put it on Facebook,
00:03:09.520 on Instagram, so people can amplify your candidates, your members of Congress, and their races,
00:03:17.020 which is very, very effective. And again, letting people know who stands with women and who does not.
00:03:22.340 IWV, Independent Women's Voice, they've generated custom graphics that myself and IWV will promote
00:03:29.120 across social media channels. Again, to just let people know what people want to know, what people
00:03:37.000 are desperate to know. Do their members vow to support legislation that would ensure women's rights
00:03:44.480 to equal opportunity, to privacy, to safety. Integral, common sense, foundational stuff.
00:03:52.420 Very, very exciting. So be sure to check out the episode here with Tulsi Gabbard to learn more about
00:03:58.340 the Riley Gaines Stand with Women's Scorecard and some other topics like the second assassination
00:04:02.980 attempt on Trump and why the Republican Party is the party of unity.
00:04:08.000 Well, Tulsi, thank you so much for joining the Gaines for Girls podcast. Gosh, we were just
00:04:13.380 talking about how really the first time I met you and shared a sage with you was two years ago,
00:04:18.860 which is mind-blowing for me personally. You know, all that's happened in my life, but, you know,
00:04:24.000 broader what's been going on around the country in these past two years. But in those two years,
00:04:29.340 as, of course, I have grown to understand, to become more aware of the things plaguing this country,
00:04:36.320 the cultural chaos that surrounds us, you have been someone that is a role model. You're a role model
00:04:42.240 for me. You're a strong leader. You're a strong female leader, which is few and far between. And so
00:04:46.940 I could not be more grateful for you in helping today and announcing the very, very exciting news.
00:04:53.440 And the news being the Riley Gaines Stand with Women Scorecard. This is a first-of-its-kind resource
00:05:01.220 that tells everyday Americans who stands with women and who does not. It scores every single candidate
00:05:08.920 for federal office on whether they stand with women, meaning that they intend to or have already
00:05:14.280 support legislation that preserves female opportunities in private spaces. Standing with
00:05:19.760 women and girls should not be a partisan issue. But unfortunately, at least in terms of our
00:05:26.360 elected representation, this is, it does seem to be something that falls on party lines.
00:05:32.480 But here we are, where some candidates, again, simply don't consider women. They're okay with the
00:05:37.980 erasure of women. But I believe accountability is key. And so, Tulsi, I wanted to start by asking you,
00:05:44.900 why do you think this scorecard is important and necessary?
00:05:51.100 You know, it's sad that we live in a country where we can't just make the safe assumption that
00:05:57.960 our elected leaders are going to look out for our children, the most vulnerable among us. That
00:06:04.560 even those politicians who stand on stages and tout their support for women and equality and fairness
00:06:11.040 in life, in the workplace, in sports, and in education, when it comes down to this very simple
00:06:18.720 issue of biological males competing against biological females in sports and therefore completely undermining
00:06:26.160 the heart and the core of why Title IX was passed in the first place and what has been the reason for
00:06:33.800 progress for so many women and girls for over five decades, this is not a safe assumption to make,
00:06:40.820 which is why it's so important, Riley, that you're doing what you're doing, that you're putting out
00:06:44.960 this scorecard so that voters who, you know, are just trying to get by every day or trying to raise
00:06:49.960 their kids in a safe and loving home and trying to provide for them and wanting the very best for
00:06:54.840 their children. Oftentimes, they don't have time to dig into, you know, the layers of hypocrisy that
00:07:01.140 unfortunately exists in our politics today. And I can guarantee you that even as every single
00:07:08.500 elected Democrat in federal office has been silent on standing up for fairness for women and girls in
00:07:16.880 sports and education, I'm sure there are many of them who would be very afraid of their voters
00:07:22.900 actually learning about that truth. So my hope is that with your scorecard, and thank you for
00:07:29.700 stepping up to lead this effort at such a critical time. We are about six weeks until the election
00:07:36.740 and early voting has already begun. So, you know, the success of our democracy is based on an informed
00:07:44.120 electorate. Our ability to make up our own mind for ourselves, but in order to do that, we actually have
00:07:49.600 to have the facts and the truth. And your scorecard and pushing this out there to voters across the
00:07:56.140 country about federal candidates and federal officeholders is better going to equip voters
00:08:01.360 to recognize who is standing up for my young daughter, who wants the best for her and her future,
00:08:06.960 and who is turning their back on our young women and girls at such a critical time.
00:08:12.160 I totally agree. And you mentioned, you know, this doesn't seem to be something that Democrats
00:08:18.880 want to reveal their voting records, whether it's, again, who is running for president. I was pretty
00:08:25.900 bummed, personally, at the debate recently, the gender ideology movement didn't get brought up once.
00:08:31.700 I believe this was, of course, strategic, because Kamala Harris and the moderators who were working
00:08:39.700 with her and against President Trump, they know this is not a winning issue. They know this is not an
00:08:44.940 issue that polls in their favor. Could you imagine if Montanans really began to understand that Senator
00:08:51.760 John Tester really voted in favor of eliminating equal opportunities for their daughters? They would
00:08:59.940 be appalled. That doesn't represent Montana values. And you mentioned deception as well. You know,
00:09:05.520 Democrats, they claim to be the party of and for women, explicitly pretty much referring to
00:09:11.840 abortion, you know, dismembering babies and aborting these babies. Not kind of getting off topic,
00:09:20.360 but they speak of health care freedom. Where was that health care freedom in 2020 and 2021? No,
00:09:25.800 these were the same tyrants who were firing health care workers and military service members and
00:09:31.860 teachers if they weren't complying with these autocratic mandates. But nonetheless, as we said,
00:09:38.940 again, this is something that tends to fall on the party lines. Every incumbent Republican at the
00:09:45.080 federal level stands with women thus far. And every incumbent Republican is Riley Gaines approved.
00:09:51.600 That means that every incumbent Democrat running for re-election at the federal level currently fails
00:09:58.600 the scorecard. Every Democrat running for re-election is not Riley Gaines approved. And so national
00:10:05.760 polling, it consistently shows that 70 percent plus, I believe that number is higher, 70 percent plus of
00:10:13.140 Americans believe that women's sports should be for women only. I imagine you have unique perspective on
00:10:19.600 this given your history, your former political affiliation. Why is it that Democrats will not stand with
00:10:28.320 women on these common sense issues? You know, Riley, I introduced, I think it was the first piece of
00:10:34.140 legislation in Congress called the Protect Women's Sports Act. It was a bipartisan piece of legislation
00:10:41.180 I introduced with my friend, then representative, now Senator Mark Wayne Mullen, representing Oklahoma.
00:10:46.960 He has young girls who are competitive wrestlers. He has young boys as well who are competitive
00:10:52.060 wrestlers. But he understood from a very personal standpoint why this was so important, because he
00:10:58.200 was thinking about his daughters and the competitions that they would go to and the wrestling matches that
00:11:02.640 they would have and their ability to reach the highest heights of their chosen sport. I have many
00:11:09.960 friends who are in this exact same situation. So we introduced this legislation while I was still in Congress,
00:11:15.720 Protect Women's Sports Act, that was less than a half a page long. It was a very simple piece of
00:11:21.960 legislation that restated the intent of Title IX, that it had to do with biological sex. Plain and
00:11:31.020 simple. Something that should not be controversial when you look at the objective truth of these
00:11:36.260 differences between men and women. And once again, why those legislators, led by Democrats, may I say,
00:11:43.520 over 50 years ago, who pushed for the passage of Title IX. This is why they did this, because they
00:11:48.260 recognized this very difference and how unfair women and girls were being treated in sports and education
00:11:56.700 and not having the same opportunities as these boys and men. The level of backlash, hate, both directly
00:12:06.540 to my face, through emails, through propaganda, media stories, was astronomical. It was incredible to see
00:12:15.260 how immediately this radical Democrat elite voice came out in unison against a very simple piece of
00:12:26.980 legislation called the Protect Women's Sports Act. Needless to say, a lot of my former Democrat
00:12:36.000 colleagues no longer spoke to me or came and gave me an earful on the House floor during votes. But at no time
00:12:42.540 then and no time since, have they actually addressed the heart of this issue? When they are questioned
00:12:48.740 on it, as you know very well, their response very often is, oh, this only affects a very, very, very
00:12:55.940 small number of people. Aren't you more concerned about being inclusive and being welcoming? They never
00:13:03.980 actually address the physical harm that's coming to those who are competing in sports like mixed martial
00:13:10.720 arts. We've even seen in volleyball and some other sports that has come to girls in this and women
00:13:15.940 in this situation. But to speak of the lack of fairness, and it's happening in states all across
00:13:21.960 the country. So again, I laugh a little bit when I hear they're immediately trying to squash this as
00:13:29.720 though it's not an issue at all. Even as they claim to be the party that wants to protect the American
00:13:36.720 people from misinformation and disinformation, they are trying to hide the truth about the consequences
00:13:44.340 of their position. I can't logically explain to you, Riley, why even some of my former colleagues who I
00:13:52.640 know have young daughters, they don't have the conviction to stand up even for them, even for their
00:14:02.640 own children. The only thing that we can point to is, quite frankly, the level of fear and self-censorship
00:14:11.180 that the leadership of today's Democratic Party has created. When I joined the Democratic Party over
00:14:17.020 20 years ago, it was a big open tent party. Democrats could come together and have strong disagreements
00:14:22.700 about very, very important issues and move forward and be more inclusive, as they say. But today's
00:14:30.640 Democrat Party, it is you will toe the line, you will comply, this is the party position, and if you
00:14:36.400 don't, we will come after you, we will target you, smear you, cancel you, try to destroy your political
00:14:42.760 career. And they don't have to wonder how they'll do it because they see how they've done it to people
00:14:46.780 like me and others who've had the courage to come forward and say, hey, right is right, truth is truth,
00:14:52.940 and I stand with women and girls. And that's what you and I did when we first met. It was the 50th
00:14:58.640 anniversary of the passage of Title IX. 50 years of women and girls benefiting because of the work
00:15:06.420 that many leaders, including strong Democrat leaders, including a former congresswoman from
00:15:11.520 Hawaii, Patsy Mink, what they fought hard for enabled incredible personal and professional
00:15:18.760 achievement for women and girls over five decades. President Biden and Kamala Harris have destroyed
00:15:24.380 all of that, not by passing legislation, but through a stroke of the pen. That is what's
00:15:30.340 dangerous, and that's why these elections matter across the country, is because Congress needs to
00:15:35.300 take action. President Trump needs to take action, as he has promised if he's elected in this race,
00:15:42.060 to really do just that, protect women and girls in fairness and equality.
00:15:45.800 That's right. That's right. I can only imagine what happens behind those closed doors
00:15:51.720 in Congress. You know, I can only imagine you talk about the, you know, voting in lockstep and
00:15:58.060 complying, which has become noticeable to, again, your everyday American people like you, what you
00:16:04.940 have faced, people like Sean Theory, a representative, a state representative in Texas who has now come out
00:16:10.320 and said, you know, I'm joining the party of faith and family and freedom, a former Democrat herself.
00:16:15.260 I think of people like Kansas State Representative Marvin Robinson, all similar stories where they
00:16:19.960 have been ousted for, I mean, for something as simple as having common sense. That's it. Common
00:16:25.740 sense. That's it. Which is crazy that this is the thing. This is the thing that they are using
00:16:31.940 as kind of the line of demarcation. But that's to anyone who's looking at this with clear eyes and
00:16:38.500 objective and independent view. It really is the difference between literal common sense
00:16:44.600 and insanity, because what they're pushing for is insane. It defies logic, it defies science,
00:16:50.240 it defies truth, it defies all sensibility. And that's where, again, this scorecard that you're
00:16:57.100 putting out, I really believe could make the difference between a win on the side of common
00:17:02.680 sense and freedom or a loss to the insane, radical, woke elitists who are trying desperately to stay
00:17:11.800 in power.
00:17:15.560 Which is why it's urgent, and which is why we have made it easy for people to look up,
00:17:21.320 to become informed, to spread around to their friends, people in their circle, all really important
00:17:28.020 stuff. I wanted to ask you very briefly, because you mentioned self-censorship and censorship.
00:17:34.300 I've got to get your reaction to the second, now, Trump assassination attempt. I have been so
00:17:41.460 disheartened. One, that this is, of course, even happening, that this is something that we,
00:17:46.220 as Americans, certainly that President Trump has to worry about. But even bigger, again,
00:17:51.880 the headlines that are being put out in the recent days following this attempt, you know,
00:17:58.360 they say this is a potential incident, or, you know, this is just a little something that happened
00:18:03.640 at Trump's golf club. Really, really misleading, ill-informed headlines. I was super encouraged to
00:18:11.860 see President Trump, you know, he released, really, receipts on many Democrats who have contributed
00:18:19.080 to this hateful rhetoric against him, which some would say led to these assassination attempts.
00:18:26.560 You know, quotes from Conala Harris, quotes from Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, the list goes on. But in
00:18:31.860 short, he's released things of, you know, I think it was President Biden saying, it's time to put a
00:18:36.520 Trump at a bullseye. He is an existential threat. This is someone who we have to eliminate really crazy
00:18:43.460 stuff. But we're even seeing the media now, say that it's Trump's, it's President Trump's rhetoric
00:18:49.760 that has caused these attacks against him. And so what's your thought, your thoughts on this? And
00:18:57.060 I guess, the bias that exists in our media? Yeah, well, first of all, I mean, thank God that
00:19:03.900 President Trump is okay. This is unprecedented, what we're seeing here, two attempts on a former
00:19:12.080 president and presidential candidate's life in less than 60 days. This hasn't happened before in our
00:19:19.380 country's history. And every American needs to wake up to why this is, this is not something that is
00:19:26.760 happening to both presidential candidates. This is happening to one, the Republican nominee and former
00:19:33.600 president, Donald J. Trump. As you pointed out, President Trump issued many different examples,
00:19:40.680 which are just a few of even more of the insightful rhetoric that's being used by the Democrat elite,
00:19:48.420 their friends in the propaganda media, their friends who are in influential positions, that again,
00:19:55.400 you follow the line of common sense and logic. You have these people with huge platforms and huge
00:20:01.940 positions of power, essentially sounding the alarm that President Trump will be the end of America,
00:20:08.320 that President Trump is the greatest threat that we face. When President Biden said every single
00:20:13.380 MAGA Republican poses a domestic threat, is the greatest threat, domestic threat to our democracy,
00:20:20.680 what message does that send to some person, crazy person, who may think that they must take it upon
00:20:27.720 themselves and do what many people have said should have happened with Hitler. And they compare Donald
00:20:38.280 Trump to Hitler. Again, this is why their rhetoric is so dangerous, that gosh, if only someone had gone
00:20:44.040 and taken him out, then maybe the world would have been in a better and a different place. So it's not an
00:20:50.020 extreme jump to believe and see that there are very dangerous consequences to the Democrat elite's rhetoric
00:20:58.580 against Donald Trump. He is strong, he is resilient, he is focused on his mission, which is to serve the
00:21:07.300 American people and to save our country. But, you know, hearing people like Joe Biden and Kamala Harris say
00:21:15.300 there's no place for political violence, we must come together as a country. I mean, my gosh, it's
00:21:21.020 insulting. It's worse than just lip service at this point. It's very insulting to the American people,
00:21:27.620 because it is the latest of many reminders of how stupid they really think that we are. And it's a
00:21:34.960 reminder of how really dangerous their mindset is. We have to believe them when they say these things,
00:21:43.680 we have to believe their senior advisors who've said, I think David Plouffe said, we have to get
00:21:48.400 rid of Donald Trump and his kind so they never rise to power again. Over and over, all of these
00:21:54.480 examples really send chills down my spine. President Trump needs all of the protection necessary,
00:22:04.340 secret service and in other means to keep him safe, because there's a reason why they're coming
00:22:09.900 after him. And it's because he's a threat to their power. And they're terrified of losing that power
00:22:15.580 and terrified to have somebody like Donald Trump, who's going to go to Washington and show once again
00:22:20.880 that he doesn't bend the knee to the permanent Washington establishment that really pull the
00:22:27.220 strings and are the puppeteers behind figureheads like Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
00:22:31.580 That's right. That's right. Something else that really blew my mind about this situation,
00:22:37.580 and knowing I was going to talk to you, I was thinking about this. It blew my mind that Ryan
00:22:45.100 Routh, he's convicted of felony possession of a weapon of mass destruction. He was not on the TSA's
00:22:54.880 terror flash list. But Tulsi, you are. I mean, that has to be almost surreal, of course, given your
00:23:03.980 personal involvement in this. And not to mention, this is someone, again, the attempted assassin.
00:23:11.900 He's tweeted at you before. I mean, that's got to be pretty surreal for you personally, too.
00:23:17.100 Yeah, you know, it is the weaponization of our government entities against Kamala Harris and
00:23:25.440 Joe Biden's political opponents. That's what we're seeing play out here. They pick and choose who they
00:23:31.080 target. And it's not a coincidence that I was put on their Department of Homeland Security TSA secret
00:23:40.600 domestic terror watch list called Quiet Skies just one day after I did an interview with Laura Ingram
00:23:46.920 on Fox News warning the American people about the dangerous consequences if Kamala Harris is to be
00:23:54.200 commander in chief, to be in that position, to have the nuclear codes, to decide the fate of the lives of
00:24:01.880 my brothers and sisters in uniform, as someone who is weak and will therefore try to project strength
00:24:10.600 by using our military to do so. That's a very dangerous thing that would come at a very, very heavy
00:24:17.480 cost, an immeasurable cost. The very next day after I gave that interview, I was put on this secret
00:24:24.520 domestic terror watch list, which by the way, apparently nobody's able to get access to,
00:24:29.240 to know who exactly is on the list. I've asked for evidence from TSA, why was my name put on this list?
00:24:35.640 They gave some vague answer about, well, we take a risk-based approach to decide who is put on this list,
00:24:42.040 list, but we'll neither confirm nor deny that you're on the list. Meanwhile, federal air marshal
00:24:47.080 whistleblowers whose job it is to surveil and follow people who are put on this Quiet Skies list
00:24:55.320 and who are following and surveilling me, they were so sickened by being used as pawns in Kamala Harris's
00:25:03.720 political retaliation efforts that whistleblowers have come forward with actual evidence proving that
00:25:10.440 I was put on this list, that there is an operational targeting package on me, and they were not given
00:25:19.480 even a good reason why, because what threat does she pose? She serves in the military. She's a former
00:25:25.480 member of Congress. She ran for president. What is the issue here? And so it is sickening.
00:25:34.280 It's important to know that it's not just happening to me. Obviously, President Trump has been the
00:25:37.960 foremost target of their weaponization of the Department of Justice and law enforcement
00:25:43.320 entities at the federal and the state level, and it's happening to Americans whose names will never
00:25:48.920 be in headlines. Peaceful pro-life protesters, people who stand out and exercise their First Amendment
00:25:55.800 rights and happen to be critical of the Harris-Biden government. They're being targeted by different
00:26:03.160 federal agencies. They are being targeted by the IRS. People who are Christian conservatives,
00:26:08.680 Catholics, they are being targeted by the FBI and other agencies. So this is such a deep-rooted and
00:26:15.240 deep-seated problem that cuts to the heart of what you first mentioned, our freedom of speech. This is
00:26:22.520 guaranteed to us in the First Amendment of the Bill of Rights. Kamala Harris has no respect for the
00:26:27.720 Constitution Bill of Rights and has shown she will not hesitate to use these public institutions that
00:26:34.040 were created to serve the well-being and interests of the American people as her own personal police force,
00:26:40.440 as her own personal political weapon to go after her political opponents so that she can try to stay in
00:26:46.440 power. That's what happens in a dictatorship. That is not what happens or what should happen in a democratic
00:26:53.640 republic. But that really cuts to the core of why this election is so important. Never before in my
00:27:00.040 lifetime at least have we seen a greater contrast in choices between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris,
00:27:06.760 between freedom and tyranny and censorship, between peace and war, between prosperity and economic
00:27:14.760 hardship and suffering. This is where, and with your efforts, you know, add to that between common
00:27:22.600 sense and insanity. This is where I'm really hopeful that the more we're able to really paint this picture
00:27:29.400 very clearly for voters across the country on each of these major issues that don't belong to any
00:27:34.840 political party. They don't belong to Republicans or Democrats. These are things that all of us as Americans
00:27:40.440 should value that this will help people who are undecided at this point and how they want to vote
00:27:46.920 kind of rise above the partisan back and forth and recognize that a vote for Donald Trump in this
00:27:52.760 election is a vote for freedom. It is a vote for common sense. It is a vote for peace and prosperity.
00:28:00.120 And so we've got to think about that for ourselves, for our children in the next generation to come.
00:28:05.640 Hmm. Powerful. Um, we've seen it on social media now where people are claiming and rightfully so
00:28:13.800 that the Republican Party is the party of unity. We have President Trump has now your endorsement.
00:28:21.560 President Trump has RFK's endorsement. There have been many others. I mean, I think of Elon Musk,
00:28:25.960 I think of Bill Ackman, many others who have now come forward who former Democrats, you know,
00:28:30.920 maybe would have, have typically voted for, uh, the liberal candidate, but they're saying the same
00:28:37.000 things that you just said. You know, this is, this is the contrast is there. We want someone who has
00:28:42.520 America first policies. And so why is it that the Republican Party is now considered the party of unity?
00:28:49.480 Uh, I think it is important to, to look at, yes, it is about bringing people together,
00:28:55.400 but what are we bringing people together around? It is around those fundamental principles that are
00:29:01.000 enshrined in the constitution that we've just talked about. Kamala Harris will also say that she
00:29:06.600 is leading a unity party as she's earned endorsements from, as she cites over 200 former Republican
00:29:13.960 staffers who worked under George W. Bush and, and others. She will cite the support of Dick Cheney,
00:29:21.400 of Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger and other warmongers and neocons who still call themselves
00:29:28.200 Republican, but who will put their warmongering ambition ahead of the values and principles that
00:29:37.160 many conservatives claim, uh, are most important, but frankly should be most important to all Americans.
00:29:43.320 And, and, and core to them is our fundamental rights and freedoms that are enshrined in the constitution.
00:29:49.720 So, you know, coming together for the sake of unity is not good enough on its own. What's most
00:29:56.040 essential is what are we uniting around? What is our purpose? What is, what is that common thing
00:30:01.720 that's bringing people from such disparate and different backgrounds together, uh, in support of
00:30:07.960 President Trump in this campaign? It's not because we agree on every single issue and we're walking in
00:30:13.080 lockstep or become robots and, and kind of group thinkers, not at all. We have very different views and
00:30:18.680 opinions and ideas about how we can solve the big challenges that we're facing as a country,
00:30:23.240 but we are coming together, uh, with hope and with optimism because the thing that connects us all
00:30:29.960 as fellow Americans are those fundamental principles of freedom. And the reality is we cannot truly be
00:30:36.760 free unless we are at peace. Kamala Harris and Joe Biden have us embroiled in multiple wars around the
00:30:43.000 world. They have us closer to world war three and nuclear Armageddon than ever before. And as you
00:30:48.680 know, very well, as we've seen throughout history, whenever we are in a state of war, those in power
00:30:54.680 use that as an excuse to conduct a power grab and take away more of our civil liberties and our freedom.
00:31:02.760 We cannot be free unless we are at peace. We cannot be prosperous unless we are at peace. And these
00:31:09.080 founding and fundamental principles are what is bringing, uh, Americans from all walks of life
00:31:14.600 together to support president Trump in this election, because in this election with these
00:31:19.240 two candidates, he is our best hope to get our country back on track where we can truly live free
00:31:27.000 and thrive in a peaceful and prosperous country. Absolutely. Last question for you. What's your insight
00:31:33.720 on the average American, forget even political affiliation on the average American? And do you
00:31:41.720 feel hopeful? Do you feel like, like we are, uh, you know, people are waking up to, to the insanity,
00:31:49.960 whether it's, it's has to do with the gender ideology movement, whether it has to do with having,
00:31:55.240 wide open borders. Do you think people are waking up to the insanity around us?
00:31:59.560 Look, you know, there, there's no question that there are great challenges that, uh, that, that those
00:32:06.040 of us who are truth tellers are facing in the propaganda media and their, and big tech and their
00:32:13.400 collusion with Kamala Harris's campaign and the Democrat elite, those who are in the military
00:32:19.960 industrial complex and national security complex who benefit, uh, from having a figurehead like Joe Biden
00:32:28.200 or Kamala Harris in charge that they can control versus someone like Donald Trump, who they know
00:32:32.520 they can't control. So we're, we are facing strong headwinds, but I am hopeful that, uh,
00:32:39.160 the American people are paying attention to the reality of, of the lives that they are living every
00:32:44.120 single day. They are seeing and experiencing the consequences of Kamala Harris and Joe Biden's
00:32:49.720 open borders that have been there for these last almost four years and are having a very real effect,
00:32:55.560 not just on the border states, but on states and towns and cities across the country, even, even some
00:33:01.400 of our smallest states. They are recognizing that over these last four years, you know, their paycheck
00:33:07.400 isn't going as far as it used to. They're, they're able to afford less and less of the basic necessities
00:33:12.840 that they need to provide for their families, the cost of housing, cost of childcare. We could go on and
00:33:18.520 on about the different examples when people are really looking at just their own personal lives,
00:33:23.560 their communities. Are they safer today? Are they better off today? Are they more
00:33:28.040 economically prosperous today? When you go down this list, the answer to each of these is no.
00:33:33.640 And so as voters look at, um, what is real versus the propaganda that's being pushed out, my hope is
00:33:41.080 that these will be the driving factors that, that help them make their decision on election day,
00:33:46.680 on November 5th, and recognize that in this election, really, there's only one choice, uh,
00:33:52.200 for the, the well-being, the interests of the American people, and that's Donald Trump.
00:33:56.840 Totally. Well, thank you, Tulsi. Thank you again for coming.
00:34:01.160 It's great to talk to you, Riley. Thank you for being a forceful leader. Um, and especially with
00:34:06.760 the launch of now the Riley Gaines Stand With Women's Scorecard, which is its aim is to raise
00:34:12.520 more awareness about the erasure of women's rights, opportunities, and spaces, and provide clarity
00:34:18.440 to every American, uh, so we know who stands with women and who does not. Thank you, Tulsi.
00:34:24.520 Thank you for doing this. I look forward to seeing you.
00:34:28.280 Thank you guys for tuning in to the Gaines for Girls podcast. Uh, as I said, I've known Tulsi for
00:34:34.680 about two years now. She is someone who has always been very gracious, very kind,
00:34:38.760 very supportive of me, very supportive of me personally, but, but this, the movement that we
00:34:44.280 are fighting for, keeping men out of women's sports, ensuring women privacy in areas of undressing,
00:34:49.480 keeping men out of women's prisons, uh, again, all important things. Uh, I am excited for her
00:34:55.720 future. I am very hopeful, uh, that President Trump will win big in November and she will score,
00:35:02.680 uh, a position in his administration because, uh, she is qualified. She's effective. She's,
00:35:08.280 she's amazing is what she is. Uh, again, thank you guys. Be sure to check it out. Check out
