Jack Posobiec is joined by Ben Burkwam and Oscar Elbleu Ramirez from an undisclosed location in Ukraine to talk about the latest in the Biden/Russia scandal and how the DOJ is trying to cover up for one of the biggest cover-ups the country has ever seen.
00:01:51.440Then, after that, they can hold the investigation over as long as they want.
00:02:02.980You know that little thing called the ability to hold this out forever?
00:02:12.940When the House goes to request information, guess what?
00:02:17.860They'll say, it's an ongoing investigation.
00:02:19.700We can't give you information in those files because we have an ongoing investigation, even though we're not investigating, even though we're not doing anything, right?
00:02:28.020They are going to allow all of the time to run out on these charges.
00:02:33.440And Hunter Biden will get to walk away.
00:02:36.860And so the reason they're playing it out, the statute of limitations, is they know that it's affecting the election.
00:03:51.240We can't say where we're going, but we're going to be heading out early in the morning to the front lines.
00:03:54.660But I just want to show you, we're staying in a community over here, but just behind us, the woods behind us are, this is an area where there are still unexploded ordinances.
00:04:06.760We were actually out, both of us took a run this morning, and we were told, whatever you do, don't go into that forest because there are unexploded ordinances.
00:04:15.040So it's still the level of, you know, the people that live here, it's like, it's still something they have to live with every day.
00:04:19.920And this morning, we actually had a missile that was shot down with the air defense system that Ukraine is using, that America paid for.
00:04:29.180And it actually was shot down right over the house that we were staying at.
00:05:15.700I mean, although the word that we're getting is every single day, Russia's lobbing missiles over.
00:05:21.720They don't really have good directional capability.
00:05:24.740And so they're basically just shooting them off into Ukraine and hoping they hit something.
00:05:30.200The vast majority of those get shot down over the sky.
00:05:32.980But you go places like this, and we were just talking to a guy earlier today, there was a flood in another region of Ukraine that actually swept a bunch of minefields down through all these villages.
00:05:44.540And one of the pastor's sons that he knows blew up.
00:07:27.420It's something we all put off because it's hard.
00:07:29.300And I'm told that switching over to Fume is easy, enjoyable, and can even be fun.
00:07:34.680Fume has served over 100,000 customers and has thousands of success stories.

00:08:00.440I want to go back now live all the way to the field in Ukraine.
00:08:06.640Ben Berkwam, Oscar Ramirez reporting live.
00:08:10.960President Zelensky has made posts on his Telegram just in the last 12 hours talking about the possibility for a general mobilization,
00:08:21.120another round of mobilization for Ukraine, as even the Washington Post is saying that the Ukrainian counteroffensive has essentially stalled.
00:09:27.560It's, it's basically bogged down right now.
00:09:30.500And we're kind of in a wait and see, Oscar.
00:09:32.920Well, it's, uh, they, they say that they want to recruit the quantity up to four to five million, uh, military age males.
00:09:40.740The problem is that, uh, right now, as Ben said, that is the quantity, but we asked them another question that is, you know,
00:09:47.820we put them in an uncomfortable position to ask him this, what would happen if, you know, the United States pulls out, uh, as you know,
00:09:55.600sadly, well, uh, to Afghanistan, uh, Joe Biden pulled out and left Afghanistan to, to the disaster that happened, what is going to happen?
00:10:04.720And his response was, we are going to just, uh, everybody is going to have to go.
00:10:09.780So it is, uh, the reality of, of what is really happening over here.
00:10:14.200It is that they're going to recruit or they're not going to recruit.
00:10:17.100And if that is going to be the quantity, if he's going to go all the way to up to five, five million, 4 million, or he's going to stay with that amount.
00:10:23.540And, and we actually broke some news on with, uh, uh, Steve Bannon, the war room earlier today, uh, we got word that Zelensky actually fired, uh, if not all, most of the, uh, the recruiters, the directors or the generals of the recruiting offices, because of that very issue of the corruption.
00:10:39.660And basically they were getting bribes paid off $10,000, uh, uh, per person of guys that were getting smuggled out of the country that didn't want to go fight.
00:10:52.320You know, I, I make the point, uh, we, I don't trust Russian propaganda any more than I trust American propaganda, any more than I trust Ukrainian propaganda.
00:11:00.260So that's why you have to come down here and see it for yourself, talk to the people on the ground and find out what's really happening.
00:11:04.940Um, but then again, we, we see a lot of, a lot of, uh, your military age males and walking and give you, you will see a lot of them, a lot of them.
00:11:16.560Uh, that being said, uh, when it, when you look at a situation like this, the tactics and there was the Ukrainian, uh, officer came out recently and said that our tactics have shocked the Russians because we are using a grinding strategy, uh, rather than a direct push.
00:11:33.580Whereas I, I say that, you know, when you're, you're going up against a massive border that the Russians have fortified, you'd think that they would try to concentrate their forces into one specific area to break through those lines rather than trying to crash into various points of the line in different, uh, in different waves.
00:11:52.620Some of which have been quite small, some of which completely wiped out by Russian forces.
00:11:58.960Uh, when, when it comes to that sense, you're there on the ground, uh, tell me, what is the, what's the security posture as you're going around?
00:12:07.640Uh, are you seeing the military checkpoints?
00:12:10.000Are you seeing, do you had, do you need to require credentials?
00:12:12.720I know last year I was there about one year ago in June of 2022, uh, at the point where we got out of Odessa and then closer to the frontline.
00:12:21.200I don't need, doesn't need to tell me exactly where you are right now.
00:12:24.160I understand your mobile, but are you seeing those same types of checkpoints?
00:12:27.620Are you seeing that same type of heightened scrutiny?
00:12:29.300Yeah, you know, we having not, this is our first time being here, but we're, uh, going with Chuck Holton, former army ranger and just, uh, you know, American patriot hero.
00:12:39.520Uh, he's been down here a long time, uh, been here several times.
00:12:43.060And from his perspective, again, we, we go off of, you know, what, what it was versus what it is now.
00:12:47.340And it's, uh, basically, uh, everything is more lax now that the, you know, they have a curfew, but nothing, no one really follows it.
00:12:56.060There are checkpoints, uh, but they, we didn't get checked outside of coming through the border.
00:13:00.000We didn't get checked all the way to, uh, Kiev as you go further out east though, the, the checkpoint scrutiny increases, but that's just because you're getting closer to the action and potentially danger.
00:13:10.420So the big issue with the checkpoints is making sure that civilians don't, uh, unnecessary civilian casualties don't happen, that only people that need to be out there are actually out there.
00:13:19.380But other than that, I mean, when you're around going around the major cities, it's, it feels, I mean, honestly, you really wouldn't know there's a war other than you see a lot of people in military uniform.
00:13:28.720Uh, and again, you see some of those checkpoints, you see some bunkers as you come into town.
00:13:32.660Um, and you know, you, this morning we saw a missile shot out of the sky, but, uh, the, the, the majority of people walk in the streets, they're going to work rush hour at five o'clock.
00:13:42.860Um, and you know, it's, it's, yeah, you don't, it, it doesn't feel, uh, that there is that heightened sense of concern, but definitely to your point about the, the front, uh, that is the sense that we get is basically, they're trying to beat Russia with attrition.
00:13:58.020Uh, but there, there's truth to it that Russia is, is running down on their equipment.
00:14:05.340How, you know, how long can they withstand this?
00:14:08.260Uh, but Russians are tough people too.
00:14:09.900So it's, you know, it's kind of a, the, the longer the stalemate goes, the, the, sadly, the more deaths you have on both sides.
00:14:15.860And the question is how many are they willing to commit?
00:14:18.960And in terms to the, to the airstrikes, uh, what we have heard is that the technology on the side of Ukraine is, is not a much up to date than what it is on the part of Russia.
00:14:29.960Uh, what we have heard is that they have tried to hit constantly, constantly keep.
00:14:35.040Uh, but when it comes to Moscow, uh, Ukraine has been more effective.
00:14:39.120So, and in terms to that, that is how, you know, technology has been, uh, more efficient, uh, in the side of Ukraine than in the side of Russia.
00:14:47.000Well, and the issue though, of course, is that whereas Ukraine has lost all of their Soviet equipment, Soviet air equipment that they originally had, that's why they're forced to rely on NATO.
00:14:58.540And then the problem, I talked about this on war room, uh, this morning, but before you guys came on, but is that we are depleting our stocks now because we have to keep backfilling them.
00:15:07.920Um, and we don't have the manufacturing base anymore in the United States, or it really, in many of these NATO nations, um, even Germany, of course, losing their, uh, Nordstrom to cheap energy input.
00:15:19.140So we're now on the hook for this, Biden coming in with another 40 billion.
00:15:23.860The question is, where are we going to get them, the equipment, where are we going to get the armaments for this?
00:15:29.620How are we going to keep, um, building it fast enough to be able to fight this war of attrition?
00:15:34.320Whereas when you can go and look at the videos in Russia, those tanks keep rolling right off the line.
00:15:40.780And I'll ask you guys a question though, when you saw those missiles flying overhead, and I saw some of the videos that you had posted earlier, what, I mean, how did it feel knowing that you were potentially in harm's way as the missile was flying overhead?
00:15:55.200Well, it, it makes it real, you know, we heard the, the, uh, sirens going off the first night we got here, we heard the sirens going off in Lviv.
00:16:05.820And when we got here, it was, we heard the sirens again and, and, you know, we, and talking to people is like, ah, those just go on all the time.
00:16:14.160And then all of a sudden there's a missile blown out of the sky above your head and you think, oh, well, I guess it doesn't, nothing, you know, something's happening.
00:16:20.420And so, uh, you definitely get the sense, and especially as, as we've had further East, um, I think you're going to get more of that sense that this is, this is real.
00:16:29.580People are dying every single day and you've got the pictures on the wall.
00:16:35.700You know, nobody, I mean, honestly, it's good versus evil.
00:16:38.560We always battle this and you just wish it wasn't happening.
00:16:41.180But at the end, it's just like we were talking about, uh, you know, uh, uh, about with, uh, Steve, that this is, you know, the corruption is on all fronts.
00:16:50.420And bottom line is who is when you get down to the bottom of it, who wants this war to happen and who are the people pushing it from behind?
00:16:57.520And I think in speaking to people, the, the most obvious answer is it's simply to destabilize Putin to get more of a control.
00:17:04.280And it really goes back to money and power.
00:17:06.220And sadly, people are dying because of money and power.
00:17:09.140And that's the, you know, story of life, unfortunately.
00:17:11.560On, on my own behalf, uh, you know, to hear the alert sirens as we were coming in was kind of a, an impact for me because I never heard it in my life.
00:17:20.660Uh, and to see that into, into hear that was really an impact.
00:17:24.020But today in the morning, as we saw a, you know, a missile, uh, you know, basically being destroyed in the sky, it makes you understand that this is a reality, that this is actually, you know, happening.
00:17:33.940And that Russia, it is, uh, consistently throwing missiles between nine to 12 to 15 missiles.
00:17:39.480And on the other hand, uh, you have the psychological effect.
00:17:43.260As we were talking a few minutes ago with one of the, uh, NGOs that is, uh, helping over here, uh, refugees that they are, uh, women refugees that they are leaving violence and, and ultimately other causes.
00:17:54.680The kids are having a PTSD that is aggravated.
00:20:19.020Well, the reason is it's a sham, right? I mean, David Weiss is the man who is responsible for thwarting the IRS investigation
00:20:27.540that the whistleblowers talked to us about a few months ago, right?
00:20:31.800He's the one whose office obtained the FD 1023, that confidential human source document that said that Hunter Biden and Joe Biden had received $5 million each from a Burisma executive.
00:20:44.540His office sat on that document and did nothing about it.
00:20:47.980You know, he's also the one who's responsible for this sweetheart plea deal with Hunter Biden.
00:20:51.900So David Weiss has proved his loyalty to the Biden family, and that is why he has been chosen as a special counsel.
00:21:00.200Now, there's a couple of things to talk about, too, right?
00:21:02.280He's he's the he's he's the U.S. attorney in Delaware.
00:21:06.340You're not actually allowed to appoint a special counsel who's in the U.S. government.
00:21:11.800So how how they're getting away with appointing him in the first place, it contrary to federal law, is is is something we have to talk about, which is really confusing to me and to others.
00:21:23.280And and then, you know, you also what's what's going to happen with this in the first place?
00:21:27.800The special counsel should have been appointed years ago to investigate Hunter Biden.
00:21:32.040The only thing that's really going to to address the scandal that is this Biden family and the way that they have allegedly sold American foreign policy for millions of dollars.
00:21:44.640The only way we're going to get to the bottom of that is with impeachment proceedings.
00:22:07.640The FBI had the evidence the entire time.
00:22:10.160These cases could look when I worked in the intel community, when I was a military intelligence officer for the U.S. Navy.
00:22:16.520You never get a situation where somebody just walks in and hand you an entire roadmap to what something is going on like this.
00:22:24.120You never get the entire entirety of communications, the emails, everything like this.
00:22:29.080That's exactly what happened when the FBI received that laptop in 2019, mind you, well within the statute of limitations.
00:22:37.500Evita, what is it going to take for significant pressure to be put up against this regime so that the people can actually get some kind of relief here?
00:22:50.720Well, it's it's a really frustrating question because my answer is is not going to be a good one.
00:22:56.580I don't think there there is going to be any justice in this case, unfortunately, because it's not just the Biden family.
00:23:03.480Right. I mean, what we've proven now is that the corruption goes all the way to the higher ups in the DOJ.
00:23:10.820They are all in collusion. And so when when your Justice Department is not just and is not going to is not interested in actually doing its job,
00:23:20.260there's no way to really have to have retribution with what the Bidens have done.
00:23:25.620And so I it's frustrating as as for the American people.
00:23:30.200But I think the only thing that we can do right now is encourage the GOP to continue to expose the bribery scandal,
00:23:37.880to expose Hunter, to expose Biden and all the others who have received payments and and then to vote them out of office.
00:23:45.260That's really going to be the only answer here because the corruption is so deep.
00:23:49.280What do you think about the debate that's been raging within Washington, D.C., really within conservative circles across the country,
00:23:58.020I should say, about whether or not to bring an impeachment proceeding up against for either Joe Biden or for Merrick Garland himself?
00:24:08.020Well, I think it needs to happen. I think I think Republicans would be stupid not to.
00:24:12.760I think there's been a lot of slow walking. I mean, we should have been the Republicans should have been on top of this Hunter Biden scandal years ago.
00:24:21.860And they weren't. And even the conservative media, to be honest, wasn't covering it as much as they should have.
00:24:27.440I mean, the Federalist where I work, there were a few articles about it.
00:24:31.060That's one of the only few that I've really seen covering this story for years now.
00:24:36.620People we can't really move forward because we're playing catch up.
00:24:41.580And now the such as limitations are coming up on us.
00:24:44.520And a lot of these crimes that Hunter has committed, we can't really even prosecute.
00:24:48.520So 100 percent, there needs to be impeachment proceedings.
00:24:52.560And part of the problems that we're facing now is because Republicans have already slow walk this investigation far too much.
00:25:00.300Well, I couldn't agree with you more. And that's why I brought up Bill Barr before to point out that this was a nominally Republican administration
00:25:08.260that had this evidence that had this information when Biden, by the way, he wasn't even the nominee yet.
00:25:14.280The election hadn't even begun at that point. We didn't even know about the laptop in late 2019.
00:25:21.520So there was no election that was going on yet. Meanwhile, so Republicans couldn't put that up.
00:25:27.840Meanwhile, Donald Trump, as we find out today, his trial in Washington, D.C. might actually be going on concurrently with the Iowa caucuses.
00:25:38.820So they're laying it out, a four to six week trial that starts on January 2nd of 2024.
00:25:45.460January 15th is the date of the Iowa caucuses.
00:25:49.180The New Hampshire primary date has not even set, but it's probably also within that that four to six week time window.
00:25:55.040So this is completely insane. It's it's completely insane to me. And I got I wouldn't say I got into it.
00:26:02.020But Glenn Beck and I had a discussion earlier this week where I said that Republicans have been playing by the Marques of Queensbury rules for far too long.
00:26:10.360And anybody who wants to continue to play like that needs to get out of the way.
00:26:14.560Evita, would you agree with me on that?
00:26:15.860Yeah, I mean, I think that we we we can't really move forward in this this this election.
00:26:24.140We can't have a primary. We can't, you know, be talking about things in the status quo because it's completely flipped on its head.
00:26:29.500And really that there was a wonderful tablet article that came out last week about the Obama administration really suggesting how he still has his claws in the Biden administration.
00:26:39.120And what happened in that administration was the the the deep state was weaponized against the opposite party and that those problems that originated the Obama administration continue on today in the Biden administration and during the Trump administration with with Russia collusion.
00:26:54.360And so we we are not going to be able to move past this until there's retribution from the 2020 election and from from the way that they interfered in that election, from from the obstruction that we've seen with any investigation to the Biden crime family.
00:27:07.720This is a a really pivotal, pivotal, pivotal, pivotal moment in American history.
00:27:13.180And I think a lot of people are seeing that it's not just about Trump or it's not just about Biden.
00:27:17.460It goes down to individuals. We saw, you know, this week that Christopher Wray lied to the to Congress about whether this investigation into traditional Catholics was from one office or multiple FBI field offices across the country.
00:27:35.100People, people, individuals who are on the wrong side politically are being targeted by this DOJ, whether you're a traditional Catholic, whether you're a pro-lifer, whether you were at January 6th and were peacefully protesting.
00:27:53.200Right. So in that case, we thought it was just the Richmond office.
00:27:56.340Now we find that it was the Richmond office, the Portland office and the Los Angeles office were all working together.
00:28:02.780By the way, we don't know if that means that they were implanting FBI informants or sources within traditional Latin mass communities, whether or not they were trying to find and root out spying on people who were, I don't know, perhaps praying the rosary too fervently.
00:28:20.400They were just they were using a little bit too much Latin in their their services, forcing women to wear veils.
00:28:26.920I mean, just complete insanity. How could we ever go on as a country if we allow things like this holding communion services on every single day of the week?
00:28:35.920I mean, these just outlandish extremists clearly need to be dealt with.
00:28:40.760So we've got the FBI doing that, running up against the churches.
00:28:45.080You've got this completely insane pre-dawn raid of a guy, a 75 year old man, 300 pounds, sitting in his house at 615 in the morning out in Provo, Utah.
00:28:56.120Mormon guy, by the way, church member.
00:28:58.440It seems to me that like the FBI is is completely targeting one side of the aisle.
00:29:05.760But just when it comes to a guy like Hunter Biden, who has crimes that we can see from the Obama administration.
00:29:11.900It's so smart that you point that out, by the way, that Republicans are trying to litigate something that happened during the Obama years.
00:29:21.960Yeah, absolutely. And I think that's what what regular Americans are noticing.
00:29:25.480And that's where where the real rift in our country is coming from.
00:29:28.760With this, this Catholic document is so interesting, because if you read the original document, they say they say that Catholics potentially are aligned with radical white supremacists.
00:29:39.540But they can't name exactly how Catholics are being racist.
00:29:43.720But what they do say is, oh, but they're really extreme on their their views on marriage and on abortion.
00:29:49.240So what this really is, it's not about racism, because almost half of Catholics in the United States are Hispanic.
00:29:54.960So that check that one off. They're all brown.
00:29:58.020But the other problem is, you know, this is not about racism.
00:30:00.880It's about ideal ideology. It's about theology. It's about the values that people have.
00:30:06.140And it's so transparent that one side is always getting targeted and the other is getting left off the hook.
00:30:13.340This goes back to the BLM riots in 2020. How many of those guys were never prosecuted by by by the FBI, whereas January Sixers were put in solitary confinement for walking through the Capitol peacefully?
00:30:26.900And Andy, no, isn't even able to get any kind of judicial relief.
00:31:33.640Maybe you guys get together for some cheese curds, and I'll be the one who's caught out, right?
00:31:37.280So the thing that I want to look at, and really, I'll go to Evita first here, is Gen Z is voting at a much higher clip, a much higher rate than we've seen any other youth group vote in recent history.
00:32:31.400And that means that they're kind of up for pickings.
00:32:33.560They're not really, you know, engaged to any certain political party.
00:32:38.480They're willing to look at other candidates.
00:32:41.420And so Republicans need to do a lot better job of messaging to them.
00:32:44.480I think this has been a huge problem with the consultants, right, where they are really holding on to old tactics that aren't translating for Gen Zers.
00:33:31.800He's like, I'm here, and I'm just really concerned with what's going on in Congress.
00:33:38.060We need to put the people's rights forward.
00:33:40.320And that's why we need as much abortion as possible and more money for far-left—but I agree with you that it is the methodology, because he's going directly to the voters where they are now.
00:33:53.680Tell me a little bit more about how Democrats and Social Media influencers have mobilized using TikTok.
00:34:01.860Oh, well, I mean, it's been massive, right?
00:34:03.620I mean, on college campuses specifically, they have these digital voting drives.
00:34:24.860I'll also say, like, there are issues that Republicans can win for young voters.
00:34:29.380I mean, the economy is the biggest one, right?
00:34:30.860But also during the COVID years, think about what happened to Gen Z during COVID.
00:34:35.600They were defrauded out of their tuition dollars, forced into remote learning.
00:34:39.720They ended up depressed, sad, anxiety.
00:34:42.220They were surveilled by their universities.
00:34:45.060They had to do, you know, these ineffective mask mandates, experimental vaccine mandates.
00:34:50.380I have friends personally who have gotten mitocarditis after taking the vaccine.
00:34:54.440These are things that were really impactful on Gen Zers that Republicans have really done nothing to capitalize off of to say, hey, we're sorry that this happened to you.
00:35:20.160You're on the ground more than anybody, I think, at this point.
00:35:23.820What can Republicans, conservatives do in order to match these tactics that Evita is outlining for us that the Democrats are rolling out?
00:35:32.920Well, we have to show up and we have to present an alternative narrative, you know, talking to college students, especially here in Wisconsin for the spring primary.
00:35:47.920Free speech is something that's on people's minds that some of the students had to write their papers differently because they were worried that their teachers would grade them detrimentally if they actually expressed how they truly felt.
00:36:00.880And I think affordability is a big thing.
00:36:03.680People are losing all of the money that they're earning on apartments and it's going to their housing and they're not able to create a lives and they're not able to create the American dream.
00:36:15.160So why are we not as Republicans talking about things like abolishing property taxes or doing what Florida has done to make baby necessity items tax exempt that if people want to start a family and if we are this pro family values party, then let's make it easier and more affordable to start and create families.
00:36:36.760And I think it has to be a policy driven and that isn't R or D, but it's talking about our conservative values and putting them into practice.
00:36:48.360The Republican Party needs to become the party of the worker and the party of the family.
00:36:52.220We have to stop being the party or I say the Republicans have to stop being the party of big business, stop being the party of the military industrial complex, stop being the party of Wall Street, which, by the way, Wall Street's been donating to a whole bunch of Democrats lately.
00:37:04.740I don't know if you notice that the U.S. chamber ain't exactly too supportive of conservative causes these days.
00:37:10.260But, but Scott, I know you're out there, you're pounding the pavement in terms of registration.
00:37:15.160We had a huge number out the other day and I we were talking about it on Twitter and Richard Barris said on the show that 20 percent of non registered Americans right now are swinging towards Trump.
00:37:29.320Now, Evita has just told us how the Democrats are using TikTok like crazy.
00:37:36.300Well, I really want to put things into perspective and give context.
00:37:42.640I know some people are thinking about electability and that's why they're choosing a certain candidate.
00:37:48.260I'm not supporting any candidate right now.
00:37:50.480My goal is to make Joe Biden a one term president.
00:37:53.240But people need to understand that the election in 2020, that was, quote unquote, won by fewer than 70,000 votes.
00:38:00.780And that's with the no excuse mail-in voting.
00:38:03.720That's with everything that happened in the 2020 election.
00:38:06.340The fact of the matter is it came down to Arizona, Georgia, Wisconsin, fewer than 70,000 votes.
00:38:14.240So if you think about it, is it possible that 35,000 people that voted for Joe Biden have changed their minds and are now supporting Donald Trump?
00:38:23.260The fact of the matter is we must have an all of the above approach to voting.
00:38:26.660And we just saw this in Ohio with the referendum that they just had literally this week that machines went down on Election Day.
00:38:35.220And so my argument is, guys, we must do, yes, in-person voting, but also mail-in voting, early in-person voting, absentee voting, and we're legal in states like Nevada, ballot harvesting.
00:38:46.160But I do want to say one last thing to give hope to the people that are watching.
00:38:51.060In the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, out of the 67 counties that are there, because of demographic voter registration data, 50 out of those 67 counties have more registered Republicans that are 18 to 24 years old than Democrats.
00:39:10.080And furthermore, we have seen that number that two months ago, the Democrats had a lead of 94,000 more 18 to 24-year-olds.
00:39:20.060That number has decreased to below 90,000 in the last two months.
00:39:26.600So Republicans are gaining in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania with Gen Z voters.
00:39:32.140This is huge. Let's go to Evita. So, Evita, last word for you. We've got about a minute and a half left in the segment.
00:39:39.460What are the main issues that Republicans should focus on to capture more of this and capitalize the momentum that Scott's talking about?
00:39:47.480So, I think it's three things. I think, one, I think it's the economy. I think Gen Z is coming into the world. They're trying to get jobs. They're trying to buy a house.
00:39:55.680And these things are made really difficult by Democrat policies. I'm newly married, can't buy a house because of reckless Democrat spending and inflation and everything.
00:40:06.680So, the economy is one. I think COVID, which I mentioned, is a big one, emphasizing how Democrats are the party of censorship, of encroaching on your civil liberties.
00:40:17.520And then, also, the last one is talking about entitlements. I think that's been something that fiscally responsible conservatives have talked about but have been sort of afraid to because, you know, it can be unpopular with older generations.
00:40:28.240With younger generations, it's very popular to say, hey, we're going to either fix or abolish these broken systems because you guys are the losers of them.
00:40:36.060We're paying into programs that, literally, I'm never going to see. We're never going to see them.
00:40:40.740And so, I think, you know, talking about these fiscally responsible policies in the context of Gen Z will be really, really useful.
00:40:50.440That's actually very interesting. Evita, where can people go to follow you to get access to all your writings?
00:40:55.020Evita Duffy underscore one on my Twitter and then just look up Evita Duffy at TheFederalist.com.
00:41:00.400All right, Evita Duffy, always a pleasure. It's our normal Friday hit with Evita, folks.
00:41:05.260Scott, stick around because I want to do another segment with you to get a field update on everything that's going on as we hurtle towards our meeting with 2024.
00:41:20.560I'm always listening to Human Events with Jack Posobiec.
00:41:25.620Jack Posobiec here live, Washington, D.C.
00:41:28.000We're joined by the great Scott Pressler, the tireless Scott Pressler.
00:41:32.240By the way, it was good seeing you, man, down at the Turning Point event.
00:41:35.520You absolutely crushed it on that stage.
00:41:38.300But you are a guy for whom the work never stops.
00:41:42.720So, tell us about all things Scott Pressler.
