On September 12, 2024, the body of a young girl was found floating in a bayou in Louisiana. The identity of her killer has yet to be publicly released, but her family suspects that it could be a Venezuelan immigrant.
00:01:00.000This is the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere.
00:01:03.440Second, they do do animal sacrifices for their religion.
00:01:07.040The attempt to end my husband's life was a horrible, distressing experience.
00:01:13.860Now, the silence around it feels heavy.
00:01:17.100I look forward to getting an idea of kind of what they know at the moment while their investigation is still going on.
00:01:22.240Look, there are people out there on the left who think this thing was staged, and there are people on the right who think this was an inside job.
00:01:29.040And that's because no one is giving them information.
00:01:31.240On Monday, June 17, 2024, my daughter Jocelyn was murdered and thrown in a bayou of water underneath a creek.
00:01:39.120She was a preteen out doing what teenagers do, going to the corner store to get a soda.
00:01:43.760She was preyed on by two illegal Venezuelan immigrants.
00:01:47.200They saw an innocent young girl and made her a target for their horrendous actions.
00:01:50.800Your plan is to deport tens of millions of these people.
00:01:55.500Tell us how that will happen practically.
00:01:57.520It's like somebody who comes to me and I'm like eating my lunch and they say, look, that sandwich is ten times the size of your mouth.
00:02:03.840How are you possibly going to eat that whole sandwich?
00:02:05.740And it's like, well, I'm going to take a first bite and I'm going to take a second bite and I'm going to take a third bite.
00:11:39.320Do you still beat your wife? I mean, those were the kinds of questions that we were getting.
00:11:42.300So, for those of us who are watching, you know, if you're watching this show right now
00:11:48.020or you're listening to the show right now, you are in the top percentile of people who pay attention to politics.
00:11:54.460I think a lot of people were watching and they weren't anticipating all of those questions.
00:11:58.900And you don't just need to take my word for it.
00:12:00.820I'm not just trying to carry water for Trump here.
00:12:04.100Sure. The pundits all said that Kamala did great.
00:12:06.900The New York Times just today or just yesterday ran ran a headline.
00:12:10.920Pundits said Kamala won. Undecided voters aren't so sure.
00:12:15.100And the reason that, according to The New York Times, even the undecided voters didn't think she won is because she didn't give any substantive answers to any question.
00:12:23.900And so we, knowing all of the various positions or lack of positions on Kamala's side, you know, we see past those sorts of things.
00:12:34.020We're waiting for the fireworks and all the pizzazz.
00:12:36.220But I think the voters are a lot smarter than anyone gives them credit for.
00:12:39.680And many people, five to seven percent of voters who maybe are undecided right now, they tuned into that debate.
00:12:45.760They want to hear how Kamala is going to bring the cost of goods and services down.
00:12:49.160They want to hear how Kamala is going to fix the border.
00:12:51.200They want to hear how Kamala is going to protect the puppies and the geese in Springfield, Ohio, perhaps.
00:12:55.720And they didn't they didn't get answers to any of those things.
00:12:58.140And sure, Donald Trump wasn't doing cartwheels on the stage, but he was giving substantive, compelling answers that appeal to a lot of voters.
00:13:06.460So all in all, I think he did a pretty good job.
00:13:10.220And in addition to, by the way, something that occurred to me just even today, because and by the way, Knowles, you're 100 percent right about talking about how it's the political nerds, you know, that we are is sitting there.
00:13:33.780And then, you know, Twitter is Twitter.
00:13:35.440This was 67 million people watching last night.
00:13:39.880And so you're you're speaking to such a massive audience, but also an audience that, by and large, kind of has their opinion of Donald Trump already set up.
00:13:48.380I mean, he's been the singular figure in American politics for the better part of a decade at this point.
00:13:52.580I think people know what their opinion of his is.
00:13:55.900And yet I noticed, though, something that was really strange was nobody talked about the fact that the guy who was in the last debate is suddenly not there.
00:14:04.900And it's we're all just sort of supposed to understand, like, oh, yeah, yeah.
00:14:08.420Don't worry about any of that stuff or the assassination attempt that happened in between.
00:14:28.300And and by the way, you know, your candidate totally left, but he's still president, I think.
00:14:32.900But you're not explaining any of this.
00:14:34.140Sir, sir, we're only here to talk about important matters, you know.
00:14:36.880And and it really is this construct where there's a lot of people in that 67 million audience that are probably wondering the same thing, especially people who who I talk to.
00:14:48.740You know, I was I was back home in Philadelphia for the debate.
00:14:51.660And, you know, we were doing some man on the street stuff.
00:14:53.860And there were people who didn't know that Joe Biden wasn't running for president anymore, that we just ran into on the street.
00:14:59.300There were people that we ran into who had no idea the debate was even going on, that the election was going on.
00:15:04.460So you have to remember that, you know, we are like, like you're saying, we are like the extreme information voters versus just these low information or no information people that are out there.
00:15:14.980And so to them, they are kind of scratching their heads saying, wait a minute, where's where's the old guy?
00:15:19.980You know, it's kind of like you're it's like you're watching Game of Thrones and all of a sudden they change the character or the actor who plays, you know, it was Kit Harington played Jon Snow.
00:15:27.500But they've just changed him and they've race swapped him and gender swapped him and no one's talking about it.
00:15:36.900The only way they've changed the platform in the in the three days since Kamala has had a platform, the only way she has one is she took most of Biden's and then stole a little bit from Trump as well and put it on her website after some of us in the media bullied her into doing it.
00:15:51.380But she she wasn't able to articulate a particularly clear vision.
00:15:55.020And this is where I think Trump really did excel.
00:15:57.940So if we grant that expectations were way too high because the last guy Trump debated basically figuratively and maybe literally died on stage.
00:16:07.460So assuming those expectations were already way too high, what did Trump hit?
00:16:32.220And he also, for the first time, maybe in my life, was a presidential candidate who put the Democrats on defense on abortion.
00:16:41.100Democrats think abortion is their greatest strength.
00:16:43.640They want to run on abortion all day long.
00:16:45.660Trump went right after them on the issue that they think is really strong and asked Kamala, do you support abortions in the seventh, eighth, ninth month of pregnancy?
00:16:53.900She lied and said that that doesn't happen.
00:16:56.600And, of course, there was a lengthy, excellent feature article in The Atlantic about abortions that take place busier than ever at 32, 34, 35 weeks of pregnancy.
00:17:06.500We know that New York, the state of New York, rewrote the penal code and expanded abortion up until nine months.
00:17:12.860We know that this has happened around the country.
00:17:22.280So, you know, if the man was able to put the Democrats on defense on one of their strongest issues on abortion, all in all, that's not too bad.
00:17:31.320Can he move things around for the next debate?
00:17:56.260By the way, one thing that I noticed, and I've totally not fact checked this, you know, but if you watch the show, you know, that's how we roll.
00:18:02.260But they said that actually on TikTok, that segment that where he's talking about, why aren't you doing things now?
00:18:08.360They're saying that's the most viral clip on all of TikTok from the debate.
00:18:12.700This idea of rather than other than a certain song, which we'll be talking about later, that that's the clip that everyone's talking about.
00:18:19.920Why aren't you doing the things now if you're so good and they're so smart?
00:19:51.000We're talking about sort of the aftermath of debate or perhaps the lack thereof because one of the things that I've been seeing is that poly market, you know, Trump was up a little bit.
00:20:03.760There's a new poll that came out today in Michigan from Insider Advantage that said Trump is up 49-48 over Kamala Harris.
00:20:12.160They did not include RFK, although the question of him being on the ballot is still sort of a live question because we're not sure where that's going to shake out with the Supreme Court up there.
00:20:19.280But I'm not sure that she did what she needed to do in this debate because as we're talking, of those 67 million people that tuned in, look, people are going to tune into a fight.
00:20:30.800But how many of those people are actually still undecided?
00:20:33.040And if you are undecided, if you're undecided at this point in the election, are you someone who's happy about the state of America or someone who's not happy?
00:20:40.560Are you going to look for the person who, I'm just going to say it, comes across as a condescending HR manager?
00:20:46.620Or are you going to look for the person who is, you know, as mad as heck and not going to take it anymore?
00:20:51.980I think you're going to go with that guy.
00:20:53.660And it seems like that's starting to bear out in these early polls that we're looking at because those people, by the way, the undecideds, and look, I'm from Pennsylvania.
00:21:47.480And so you might say, well, what was she going to say?
00:21:50.320Her administration's been a total failure, so, you know, she has nothing to tout.
00:21:55.020Okay, but at least anticipate the question.
00:21:56.940Good grief, you know, to your point, Jack, people who are still undecided at this point in the race tuning in, what are we talking about, 5% of voters, maybe a little bit more, tops?
00:22:09.900Hey, lady, the price of groceries has gone way up.
00:22:13.720We've got this awful immigration issue that even many Democrats don't like.
00:22:18.640Forget about Republicans and independents, which is why, by the way, there has been this mimetic focus on the dogs and cats and geese going missing in Springfield, Ohio.
00:22:30.140It's just an evocative way to drive home the problem of mass migration in a similar way that Trump did in 2015 and 2016 when he talked about all the murderers and rapists crossing the border from Mexico.
00:22:43.820The libs can try to wish this away or, you know, do a triple-double fact check and say only little puppies, but no St. Bernard's have been taken in Ohio.
00:22:50.580None of that is relevant to the question at hand, which is do Americans like mass migration or not?
00:23:15.700So, okay, she has a pulse that might help her in the polls vis-a-vis where Joe Biden stood.
00:23:20.760But other than that, that's probably not enough for Democrats to feel comfortable in November.
00:23:24.820By the way, as we're, as we're, I just saw, somebody just said me something.
00:23:31.460As we're, as we're talking right now, Donald Trump is over on Truth Social and he's been retweeting.
00:23:36.540Like he's on a retweet storm of all the cat and duck memes that have been going around for the last couple of days.
00:23:42.980I think he's got like a dozen of them up there.
00:23:45.280And there's just something about this story where that really terrifies them because, you know, there's one thing.
00:23:51.660And I remember when they were talking about the, the Haitian invasion story a couple of months ago when it came up, people were talking about it as a housing issue.
00:24:00.640And they say, oh, it's a housing issue.
00:24:01.940And there's, there's too many Haitians and the houses of, you know, there's not enough houses to go around.
00:24:06.620It just didn't have the kind of traction that you would thought it, it could normally.
00:24:10.960Because we're not talking about a story, by the way, that's a story about a housing issue, right?
00:24:15.860We're talking about a story about them deciding to completely change the makeup of a town to take through federal tax dollars.
00:24:23.940And by the way, let's just say it, man, that Catholic Charities is in on this.
00:28:01.060The left keeps trying to debunk this and say, show me the statistic, show me the arrest report or something.
00:28:08.520Now, of course, you do have residents in the town talking about these kinds of activities, but that's actually beyond the point.
00:28:13.800And I think this is what Donald Trump understands intuitively.
00:28:18.420The symbolic significance of this really unpopular policy of mass migration, it only gets driven home when you realize that it affects your town, it affects your houses, it affects your schools, it affects your dogs and your cats.
00:28:32.960That's why he's getting a lot of runway with it.
00:28:35.240If it popularizes the issue that's so bad for Democrats, fine by me.
00:28:38.580Well, there's been another development now.
00:28:42.420You and I were speaking a little bit about this off air, and I asked the crack team of researchers and investigators that we have here at Human Events, only the best of the best folks, all top people, to track down what the latest TikTok trend is.
00:28:58.820And I'm told that we actually have a clip of this.
00:29:01.860Now, I want to say, though, before we play it, you know, viewer discretion is advised, this is graphic content.
