00:00:43.640The results from the midterm elections were definitive and will change the political tides in the House and Senate for at least the next two years.0.79
00:00:50.740Because the economic circumstance for young men is terrible.
00:00:54.920And they were, look, they're going for crypto scams.
00:01:57.480He expects that he has enough Republican support to pass that.
00:02:01.600Well, Texas Senator-elect James Tallarico has taken aim at billionaire Elon Musk
00:02:06.200after his historic win over Ken Paxton.
00:02:08.720Musk spent heavily to support Paxton's campaign.
00:02:12.300Tallarico says the billionaire was trying to buy political influence in Texas.
00:02:16.800He accuses Musk of wanting access to Texas land, water, and taxpayer money for his data center projects.
00:02:23.480When it comes to what Trump said today, which was he was thinking about pardoning Musk and pardoning other people, he may well do that.
00:02:34.820But that doesn't mean they can't be called and forced to testify, because just because they're pardoned for something, unclear what, does not remove the obligation to respond to a subpoena in the Congress.
00:02:49.420And in fact, some legal experts argue that if you're pardoned, then you have no protection.
00:02:58.020You cannot take the Fifth Amendment because you have no jeopardy.
00:03:02.980So let him pardon, Elon, and then let's call him in and figure out what he has to say.
00:03:09.640Well, ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily.
00:03:14.120We're here live on Real America's Voice.
00:03:16.400Today is November 5th, 2026, Anno Domine.
00:03:22.300Remember, remember the 5th of November.
00:03:25.480Remember, remember the 5th of November.
00:03:29.460And we should remember many things on this 5th of November.
00:05:04.220and when you make foreign interests the sole policy focus the sole policy focus and you put
00:05:11.700immigration on the back burner immigration economics trade anti-war when you put all
00:05:17.580that on the back burner what happens you get blown out you get absolutely blown out so what
00:05:23.160was the one issue that republicans went on in 2026 go look at the data i've looked at the data
00:05:27.720And we're seeing it in poll after poll after poll.
00:05:31.840The number one issue that Republicans want and still want on is the very same issue that started the MAGA of first movement in the first place.
00:10:24.600I mean, this was the most predictable outcome possible.
00:10:28.360And I take no pleasure in being right because I care more about my country than I do about, you know, my prediction status.
00:10:34.900Ultimately, this is a disaster that we could have stopped by doing exactly what we promised to do, which is to focus entirely on putting America first, focusing entirely on domestic issues, prioritizing things like immigration that were critical to the future of the nation, that were highly popular, which were the only thing that people were turning out to vote for at the end of the day in the 2026 midterms.
00:10:58.020that is what mattered and we completely ignored it and told ourselves that it just wasn't going
00:11:03.860to be a big deal because uh you know if we had this war it was going to be short and it wasn't
00:11:08.520going to matter and even if it started dragging on a little further people weren't going to care
00:11:11.940but of course they were going to care this was a core promise by president trump and his
00:11:16.840administration we were not going to get into these wars you can still go find stephen miller's tweets
00:11:21.360saying a war in iran is a kamala harris policy it's a dirty lie through that the republicans
00:11:28.520that trump would ever do this that ultimately it's a kamala harris who's going to send your
00:11:32.980sons to go die in iran you can still find those tweets they're still up so like everybody knew
00:11:38.420what was going on here but we just closed our eyes and said it's going to be fine don't worry0.99
00:11:43.000about it trust the plan look i am a repeat trump supporter i have supported trump in every possible
00:11:49.860election i believe he won three times like i'm a hundred percent on the maga train on this stuff
00:11:55.740but we can't lie to ourselves about what happened here what we did was we built a media silo we
00:12:01.860told people uh you know fox news is running fake polls saying 95 of maga diehards support the war
00:12:08.800well that's like saying 95 of christians believe in jesus christ it doesn't give you an actual
00:12:13.760understanding of how popular the war was and we intentionally told people to shut up get in line
00:12:19.800you know toe the whole line and don't ever question what's going on here we saw the polls
00:12:25.280we saw the unpopularity but we just closed our eyes and right after we watched the democrats
00:12:31.520you know tell themselves first oh joe biden's fine he's going to be okay sharp as a tack and then0.99
00:12:36.480oh don't worry kamala harris is popular she's brat she likes coconuts and spicy doritos she's
00:12:42.000going to be an online sensation we watched them delude themselves into saying everything was okay0.99
00:12:46.480You don't need to worry. And then we did the exact same thing. You have to have your political pundits and your political analysts in touch with reality. You cannot have them abandon it just because you don't want it to be true.
00:12:58.340Yeah, look, and I'm all for, by the way, and it's for me, it's the come to Jesus moment
00:13:05.340here is that the voters spoke and they spoke loud.
00:13:09.240The voters are squarely against the Iran war.
00:13:12.480And every time that I went up and conducted any analysis about the Iran war and, you know,
00:13:17.240happy to do so with with, you know, my Navy officer had and all that.
00:13:21.300But I always said there's going to be a political price to pay.
00:13:24.740There is going to be a political price to pay at the ballot box because these gas prices are not popular.
00:13:31.240And at the end of the day, that was what people voted on, because this is basically just Maslow's hierarchy of needs.
00:13:37.400OK, something like and by the way, another thing that I'll just add on as an addendum, because I did tweet this.
00:13:44.500The focus of the Republicans for years has been GDP, GDP, stock market, stock market.
00:13:52.340And yet when people talk about the economy, that's not what they're talking about.
00:13:55.840That's what the GOP is talking about and the donors are talking about.
00:14:19.000We've seen of, you know, all these people who talk to Donald Trump into this, who are cheerleading it, you know, the Mark Levin, the Ben Shapiro's, they're running around and telling everybody it's not the war.
00:14:38.520Since since you brought it up, because I where she was saying that there's no exit polls that say it was the top issue.
00:14:45.460It said the NBC exit poll said 74 percent.
00:14:47.920It was right there in the NBC exit, which, by the way, is the main exit poll from the consortium of all the exit pollsters.
00:14:53.520It was like the main poll. The very main one said it was the Iran war.
00:14:57.120And so to see these people dissembling is one thing because, you know, there's always tariffs or it was this.
00:15:01.900Yeah. How many voters did you go and meet at the polls that say, well, I'm voting on tariffs.
00:15:07.240That's that's really it's really really bothering me, really bothering my export import country company.
00:15:13.220You know, it's like that. That's not how voters talk. It's not how they think.
00:15:16.180They say gas pressure too high. The inflation is too high. Iran war isn't something that I wanted. So that led to number one, a lot of people staying home. But number two, it led to the very top top line ticket on that NBC exit poll. So you're just wrong. Like you're just wrong. If you say that that wasn't the top issue, you're just you're just wrong based on the data.
00:15:35.220i mean the the good news is i don't think anyone's buying this right like the the beautiful you know
00:15:41.660silver lining that you and i were discussing before we went live is that at the very least
00:15:46.220yeah the neocons aren't going to own this they're going to blame everybody else they're going to
00:15:49.520make all excuses we know that we know that there's just never ever going to be accountability
00:15:53.520personally for them however what's clear is they have just poisoned their brand so thoroughly that
00:15:59.680at this point no one believes a single word they're saying they can tell themselves they can
00:16:03.960sit in their little echo chamber and maybe lie to their audience about it but everybody else
00:16:08.440sees what the disaster was everybody sees how they lied through their teeth to push this and
00:16:13.940everybody sees now that they're in extreme denial and so they are just dwindling in influence i
00:16:20.140cannot imagine after this even though the neocons ultimately did get the the derailing of the
00:16:26.620trump administration that they so desperately wanted i don't think they're going to benefit
00:16:29.980in the way that they hope they thought they were going to derail this and then they were going to
00:16:33.340put somebody like ted cruz back in charge of the party and they would get back to the foreign wars
00:16:37.920and adventurism and just talking about marginal tax rates again that's not happening i think that
00:16:43.480the message has been sent very clearly that the neocons are just political poison and anybody who
00:16:48.980allies themselves with it anybody who tells you that with neocons you win they are just selling
00:16:53.640you a pack of lies and i don't think anyone is gullible enough to swallow that again
00:16:58.420you know one of the other ones too that i keep hearing is there's actually at one point where0.90
00:17:05.460they were saying it's the mou's fault and this is this is a particularly wonderful one that that i
00:17:12.160love to see it hearing that the problem was that we didn't fight hard enough we didn't bomb iran
00:17:17.340enough that we didn't go after iran long enough where because and i've said and i'll be fair on
00:17:23.200this i'll be fair on this if this had been something where and look in the first what
00:17:27.240week or so, the Ayatollah was gone. The military was decimated. The nuclear program had been
00:17:32.720buried and the the response had been made. And had it been just that back in remember,
00:17:39.240that was March. Had it just been that we'd probably be having different conversations
00:17:44.140right now. Right. We can't go back and change history. So I don't know exactly what would
00:17:48.360have happened. But had that been the end of it, when a lot of people were calling for
00:17:52.380and that there was an original plan for that would have been a very different scenario than
00:17:56.780what we actually have, because that would have been a limited strike run versus what
00:20:58.080And here's the question that I want to ask.
00:21:00.740For people who are out there, and I really do want to bring it back to the burrito debate,
00:21:07.720because there's this really interesting angle to that,
00:21:10.860where that the people who told us to stop caring about the burritos,
00:21:15.020they're the same people who say shut up about mass immigration and they're also the same people
00:21:20.660who are super pro iran war and it's really interesting to me that those people were
00:21:28.740weren't just wrong on one issue they were wrong on all of the issues and i'm talking about the
00:21:34.080people on the right side of the football or purportedly on the right side of the football
00:21:39.300I call them the woke light, as you know. And what are we to make of those types of people who said, hey, just go make your own burrito. It's not such a big deal. And something that strikes me is that Mark Thiessen, it was the biggest proponent of the Iran war and also was the guy who was yelling about burritos. It's really phenomenal and it's really fascinating.
00:22:01.180yeah it's incredible how that venn diagram turns out to be a circle right like what could all these
00:22:07.320issues have in common and of course they're the very same people who are also running around today
00:22:11.900and blaming the voters especially blaming like white young men for you know switching dim it
00:22:18.200turns out if you spend your entire campaign telling these people that you hate them and that0.99
00:22:22.420they suck and that their issues don't matter and that they should just figure it out and maybe just0.98
00:22:27.140eat a bunch of beans for the rest of their life, they might not show up to vote for you,0.99
00:22:32.060and that might be a huge mistake. We see a lot of generals blaming the troops out there today,
00:22:36.820but it needs to be a situation of accountability. We need to cast off the people who told us that
00:22:42.600the Iran war was something that we absolutely had to do. We need to reject this idea that if we just
00:22:48.540pander to all these different voting groups who never ever support us and denigrate young white
00:22:53.740Christian men that that's somehow going to be a winning strategy. This is dead weight. This is
00:22:58.060dead wood. These people are useless and actually they're worse than useless. They are an active1.00
00:23:02.760anchor on the movement. They are an albatross around the neck. I think that it was really
00:23:07.840telling that JD Vance came out and took responsibility for what happened in this
00:23:13.480election. He came out and said, no, it is actually the war. It is actually the economy. It turns out
00:23:20.480we do have to care about standard of living we do have to care about the way that military actions
00:23:25.280impact people's pocketbooks we have to put america first and very interestingly he also said we have
00:23:31.080to change our relationship with israel he is one of the few people who's out in front uh in in the
00:23:36.860administration in the top spheres of power saying this is what happened we're not going to make any
00:23:41.520other excuses don't tell me it was the deportations don't tell me it was yeah the the peace deal don't
00:23:46.780tell me it was tariffs it was the war it's that we put foreign interests before we put american
00:23:51.860interest and we need to change that that's the kind of accountability accountability and
00:23:55.880responsibility we need we don't need all these woke light or neocon people running around and
00:24:00.820blaming it on the average voter on the average young man no and and in fact you know there's
00:24:07.980so many people out there that want to get away with you know saying that that we don't have you
00:24:14.240know, it was it was because we didn't follow my policies hard enough or we just need to
00:24:17.840have another Arkansas governor run some more ads attacking young gamers, which, you know,
00:24:23.240you know, I'd love to go back to that.
00:24:24.380And I'd love to go back to and it wasn't, by the way, just the shift in young voters,
00:24:29.100but also that and boy, you know, people are criticizing me.
00:24:32.200Jack, how can you how can you come out against this?
00:24:34.600And why would you go against a Republican?
00:24:35.900Is it because look at what you're doing to your own core constituents, a core constituency
00:24:42.380and see of the 2024 coalition and who stayed home in terms of vote share. That's a huge part of this
00:24:48.160too. Our young male Republicans stayed home. Theirs came out. That's why you see the shift
00:24:55.220in the electorate so much, because they came out in presidential numbers. Ours decided to say, well,
00:25:00.620if you are just telling us to sit at home, play video games, then that's what we're going to do
00:25:04.880on election day. And that's exactly what they did. It became a self-fulfilling. And Ashley Hinson,
00:25:09.100Ashley Hinson, who was running in Iowa, said the same exact thing.
00:25:13.580It's unbelievable, which, of course, is right next to Arkansas.
00:25:39.940And then you got Marco out there, you know, sort of like just laying low, but, you know, a lot of the whisper campaign.
00:25:45.560And I will say on this that I appreciate that J.D. Vance stood up and showed leadership and took accountability because I haven't seen anyone else do that.
00:25:56.840And look, we have to end this idea that telling people to just shut up and get in line is acceptable when we see a disaster forming, right?
00:26:03.820you and i and others warned about the disastrous messaging but we were told shut up you're
00:26:10.060demoralizing people this is a demoralization op you're you're getting out there and criticizing
00:26:14.200republicans we were called we were called a foreign operation they said we were a foreign
00:26:18.900operation yes they still are by the way yes and and so we had to hear that you know and if you
00:26:25.240had any constructive criticism if you noted the problems of what was going on you were the problem
00:26:30.340Same thing with guys like Vivek Ramaswamy.
00:26:32.620We saw from a mile away that he's a disastrous candidate, had no business being in that position,
00:26:38.100but we were told to shut up, get in line.
00:26:39.880You don't want to turn over Ohio to the communists, do you?
00:27:49.760Ladies and gentlemen here at Human Events.
00:27:51.580Before we get to our next guest, I wanted to play this piece of tape that I saw last night
00:27:55.740and just address it directly from myself because I thought this was phenomenal.
00:27:59.960So Mark Thiessen, the guy who was most vocally behind the push for the Iran war, the guy who was the the one who wrote the piece that said no problem, like nothing bad will come from attacking Iran.
00:28:16.000And the same guy who went all in against those of us warning about the high price of food, the cost of the burrito, all immigration, all these things that were hitting.
00:28:26.800He was up last night on Fox, and my oh my, did he look panicked.
00:29:58.260Just take a big, big look in the mirror and understand something about the cost of burritos and the cost of your own actions.
00:30:06.580Mark, I do want to get moving on, moving on.
00:30:09.160I wanted to get to our next guest, someone who we go from the negative to the positive because we're trying to highlight the wins that we had here in 2026.
00:30:17.540And, yes, there are some very bright spots, some signs of light on an otherwise dark evening.
00:30:24.840One of the ones, of course, yesterday we talked to Kenny Cody.
00:30:27.360Juan has raced in eastern Tennessee, our own Human Events opinion editor.
00:32:10.340And, you know, of course, I remember when Michael came on this program at, you know, the Maha rally.
00:32:15.760And can I just say a little bit behind the scenes, as you know, as you know, because obviously you come from a family that knows a little bit about media,
00:32:22.700that when you're putting on one of these shows and, you know, you've hosted shows before and that you're always sort of sometimes scrambling for guests at the last minute.
00:32:31.340You know, who's around, who we got. And we go on location. We're at the Maha rally and we're saying, who's it going to be?
00:32:37.340And I, you know, I said, would they have a list of the candidates or they're like, because we're going into election.
00:33:29.940Lean into Maha. Maha moms, they're a huge part of the suburban women coalition because they care about the health of their families and their children. But also in our state of Wisconsin, we are massive cranberry producers, specifically in our district in central Wisconsin.1.00
00:33:46.580And cranberries are being potentially used to replace red dye, which which has had lots of adverse health effects for people, red dye 40.0.77
00:33:55.380So there is opportunities for the Maha movement to stimulate the economy, to create, I think, a lot of really good opportunities, depending on where you are in the country.0.70
00:34:07.320In our district, it makes perfect sense. But it makes sense for anyone who cares about health and wellness.
00:34:11.460Michael and I, you know, after we had such a devastating night, the conclusion that we really
00:34:17.300came to is this is not a referendum on MAGA. This is not a referendum on, you know, what Trump ran
00:34:26.540on, which is bringing down costs, affordability, bringing down gas prices, about, you know, the
00:34:32.640Maha movement. It's about putting America first. This is, I think, a referendum on the poison
00:34:38.680that has infiltrated the MAGA movement.
00:34:41.180A lot of people who were never Trumpers
00:34:42.560who then gave the president really bad advice.
00:34:44.920What the president ran on and what he won on in 2024
00:35:04.960I brought up the great burrito debate of 2026.
00:35:08.680And I said, people have to understand we weren't just talking about burritos.
00:35:11.980This was a proxy argument for the entire idea of cost of living and for young people.
00:35:18.660And, of course, you know, Vita, one of the things that you and I have always talked about is where Gen Z is on these issues.
00:35:25.460And, you know, these these people who are in D.C. and live in their ivory towers, I just don't think they understood how big of a deal this was for so many young voters.
00:35:36.260I mean, of course, like this is the foundation of everything. Like who's going to bring the cost
00:35:41.920down? Who is going to make the American dream affordable again? Who is going to make it
00:35:45.580possible for you to raise a home and build a family and create a life and a future that is
00:35:48.960prosperous? That's all anybody actually really cares about fundamentally. And so the numbers
00:35:54.980were really bad. I think it was young white men, 18 to 29, swung 35 points for Democrats compared
00:36:01.520to 2024. Devastating numbers. And people are taking away the wrong lessons from this, Jack.
00:36:08.280Obviously, the Iran war, and J.D. Vance said it, and President Trump agreed with them,0.90
00:36:12.060has had a massive negative impact on our economy. And that played the largest role in what happened
00:36:17.820a couple nights ago. The other thing that I'll say is that people, again, are taking the wrong
00:36:22.800conclusions away. So Latino men swung very far for Democrats, one of the most heavily Democrat
00:36:29.160swing demos in the country. And everyone says, oh, well, of course, this is because this is a0.86
00:36:33.560referendum on ICE. And this is so bad because people are, President Trump is deporting people
00:36:38.400who are here illegally. You know, I'm a Hispanic woman. I can tell you what, Latino men are
00:36:42.180providers. Latino men don't like when the economy is bad and they can't provide for their family.1.00
00:36:47.600That is what happened. That is fundamentally at the root of all of the losses that we had.1.00
00:36:54.840So again, it is returning back to right-wing populism, to the new right, to the original MAGA agenda that is still wildly popular, that won in 2016, that won in 2024. And anybody who's trying to tell you it's the Iran war should continue and this is a really great idea to keep it going, I think the president would disagree with you.
00:37:17.280I think obviously J.D. Vance would. And I think lying about deportations, immigration actually was intended on the border was a huge reason that people still did vote for President Trump this cycle.
00:37:27.600I mean, let's let's be honest. And we're coming up on a quick break here.
00:37:30.740But, Evita, isn't it also a little disrespectful to Hispanics because President Trump ran on deportations in 2024 and they all voted for him.0.99
00:37:38.860So to say, oh, they're just stupid or something because they didn't understand what they were voting for.0.99
00:38:55.280No, so Evita Duffy Alfonso, and again, congratulations to you for that.
00:39:00.780And I know that you and, of course, Michael will carry that torch of anti-communism and
00:39:07.980populism and just listening to people even as you go to Congress, which is just absolutely
00:39:13.500phenomenal. And, you know, when we look at this, you know, people, of course, are upset about
00:39:20.040the losses and they should be. And we do need an autopsy on that. But when I see the people
00:39:25.500and the caliber of the people who did win and buck the trend, I love what I'm looking at. I
00:39:30.560really love what I'm looking at in terms of, look, there was a forest fire. There was. But when you
00:39:35.840look at who survived and you look at who's still standing, I think it's far more durable and far
00:39:41.520stronger than anything we had before. And I know that that might be counterintuitive,
00:39:45.980but I do try to be forward-looking. Well, I think that's a good point, Jack,
00:39:50.360because it is a call to recruit good candidates. And everybody's like, oh, we're blaming the
00:39:57.940candidates on why we had a big loss on Tuesday. And obviously, candidates aren't the reason.
00:40:03.880There was a blue tsunami. There were a lot of problems, affordability being the number one.
00:40:09.140But good candidates matter. America first, strong candidates. You can't just, you know, plug in somebody who's kind of lukewarm and, you know, sort of says the same the right things, but is perceived as like moderate enough.
00:40:22.920And they're going to be really wonderful and win and be, you know, get stellar reviews from the voters. But actually turns out that very America first, strong candidates are the winners.
00:40:31.440You know, I said I said a couple of nights ago, like the GOP, they didn't vote for Democrats, right?
00:40:37.620They voted against the GOP on Tuesday.
00:40:40.560And they don't love when California tries to pass a bill that allows for people to be in like throuples.
00:40:47.360Like that's not that's not winnable. That's not normal. That's not like of mass appeal.
00:40:52.380Neither is the trans ideology, the targeting of our children.0.99
00:40:56.980Like neither is like packing the court, like all the crazy things they want to do, putting0.97
00:41:01.220trigger warnings on the Constitution, the Declaration of Independence and the BLM and
00:41:04.940the COVID mandates and the vaccine mandates.
00:41:07.340Like no one likes what the Democrats do when they're in power.
00:41:10.760And they actually do like when we implement authentic America first policies.
00:41:15.620So like I said, it's all about returning to the basics.
00:41:19.020And I think the Democrats are going to blow up because I know who they are.
00:41:22.100They're trying to pretend like woke too is going to be just like, oh, all we care about
00:41:26.020is is making people's lives more prosperous and obviously we know that's not true from democrats
00:41:30.580so i think they're going to mess it up and it's on us to rebuild it absolutely is and that's that's
00:41:36.020never what socialists do look um i i i came on this program every single day this year and you
00:41:43.220know even three years when you want to put all the way through saying that a socialist revolution is
00:41:46.820coming well it's here now it's here we're we're absolutely here socialist revolution has arrived
00:41:51.140they all lie they always lie it's all they do they don't actually care about the cost of living
00:41:55.460They don't care about health care, you know, they and they certainly don't care about the price of gas.
00:41:59.180If you look at the policies and the insane things they push when it comes to energy and renewables and all this nonsense, it always drives up the price of gas.
00:42:06.980And they're the ones who tax gas the most in the first place.
00:42:09.660OK, so let's just start right there, because all they ever do is lie.
00:42:14.100What they actually do when they're put into power is they push insanity.
00:42:17.340They push nonsense. They push historical revisionism and they push political reprisals against their opposition.
00:42:22.680So here's a question that I think is is pragmatic. And actually, for you going in and for Michael going in, what can Republicans do to kind of fight back against this from within Congress?
00:42:36.780Because we have the presidency. There's no question. But even in the minority, there's quite a lot that Republicans can do to fight back.
00:42:43.980I think I think it's going to be a lot of voting. No, you know, they're going to push some crazy legislation.
00:42:48.420And then it's and then it's highlighting, OK, look at what they're trying to put forward. Right.
00:42:52.180This is like you have you have to expose what they're doing. You know, I think from a leadership role, you have to encourage young people to get involved at like the local, like even the county party level.
00:43:02.600We can't just, I think, continue to run the same type of candidates. We can't continue to, like, just, I think, surrender to mediocrity and to the moderates who really are just sort of like Democrats, but less, you know, radical on social issues.
00:43:20.880We have to lean into America first candidates. And that's the path forward for sure.
00:43:26.900well and there's no question that that by the way the one of the other pieces we're going to see
00:43:32.540there are people who and because of the lopsided victory and it was a lopsided victory but and i'm
00:43:37.960not going to i'm not going to lie and say it wasn't um some pundits are doing that and i think
00:43:42.240that's that's again political malpractice that we do have to tell the truth around here and i think
00:43:46.400that that has to be our top priority is truth right that has to be our top that's what makes
00:43:50.340us conservatives and not liberals right because we live in reality and so as such there's a lot0.91
00:43:56.520of Democrats who are, who are super far to the left, these DSA types that are going to0.99
00:44:03.080push the most asinine, crazy, lunatic type policies that you want, that they ever wanted.0.89
00:44:11.700I don't know why you guys are putting AOC on the screen. I didn't call for AOC. I don't,0.98
00:44:14.880I don't know why you would, I don't know why you would do that, but okay. You know, if
00:44:17.980we want to do Ilhan Omar, okay. Just saying, well, here's the thing is Hakeem Jeffries
00:44:23.780actually has a huge problem on his hands because I don't think he's going to be able to control them
00:44:27.780at all. No, I mean, and this this is like so everyone's talking about, oh, the right has
00:44:34.840has all these internal problems. And obviously we have a lot to work through internally. But
00:44:38.500the Democratic Party arguably is in way more of a chaotic state like they won because, again,
00:44:44.020people were voting against the GOP at this time. But there's no real clear like heir apparent in
00:44:49.740the Democratic Party. There's no one who was like the shining leader. Instead, you have sort of
00:44:54.040these moderate politicians and you have these radical communists who genuinely have like
00:45:00.720disdain and hatred for our founding, for our history, for our ethos, who want to implement
00:45:05.520candidates that are fundamentally anti-American, anti-family values. And Americans still,
00:45:11.280they care about our country, our history. They want a good life and a future for their families.
00:45:17.000And so when we start to expose the agenda, the real agenda, the DSA agenda, by the way, Abdul El-Sayed is DSA.
00:45:25.200He likes to say he's not. He is. I think a lot of people are going to turn on the Democrats.
00:45:29.200And we have to have a party that is ready to meet that moment and actually deliver for the American people when that happens.
00:45:35.920No, they're not going to be able to deliver. They're not going to be able to do anything out there.
00:45:39.400And again, I'll just say again from just speaking for myself that I thought what J.D. Vance did yesterday with that tweet was show leadership.
00:46:15.300And so for the and you're now seeing this massive psyop to say, oh, he was disloyal.
00:46:20.940And you got Mark Thiessen up there saying it that that no, no, that is a psyop.
00:46:25.040This is an understanding of what the voters were saying.
00:46:29.800And and it has to start. It has to start. If there's going to be any change, it has to start with listening.
00:46:36.260It's as simple as that, I would say. Yeah.
00:46:39.040I mean, listen, it takes a lot of guts to admit, you know, when when when you need to make massive reforms,
00:46:44.580When things aren't going the right way and you're kind of at the top, I thought what he did was extremely honest. And you know what? We live in a digital age. We live in a world of AI where we don't know what's real anymore. Voters appreciate that. Voters respect that. They respect honesty. They respect you leveling with them.
00:47:02.480They don't want you to sugarcoat things or lie.
