00:00:00.000 When you look at the party of Kamala Harris, for example, she is anti-freedom, she is pro-censorship,
00:00:08.280 she is pro-open borders, and she is pro-war. Without even pretending to care about peace,
00:00:15.500 as President Trump talked about, she has shamelessly embraced the endorsement and support
00:00:20.660 of warmongers like Dick Cheney and Liz Cheney and others who care more about power and feeding
00:00:29.200 the military-industrial complex than they care about you, the American people.
00:00:34.740 For weeks, I've been telling you that the Republicans have the momentum, and now a former
00:00:39.600 candidate to be the Democratic presidential nominee, Tulsi Gabbard, has endorsed Donald
00:00:45.240 Trump and joined the Republican Party. If that wasn't bad enough, Kamala Harris also chose to skip
00:00:51.580 the annual Al Smith dinner. So New York elites spent the night laughing at her along with
00:00:59.040 Donald Trump. All this lends me to believe that it's looking like a Donald Trump win
00:01:05.180 in November. I'll get into all that and more. I'm Rachel Parker, and you're watching Rachel
00:01:10.920 and the Republic.
00:01:20.080 Hey everyone, I'm Rachel Parker. Welcome back to Rachel and the Republic. Today I'll be giving
00:01:25.520 you the latest updates to the Republican campaign trail in the U.S. election cycle. And we'll also
00:01:32.580 talk about what I perceive to be a very big mistake from Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris
00:01:39.380 in the past few days. So let's start out with this endorsement from Tulsi Gabbard. We know that Tulsi
00:01:46.660 Gabbard hasn't been a big fan of the Democrats lately. She left the party after about 20 years
00:01:52.520 to sit as an independent around 2020. And in recent weeks, we've seen her out campaigning for Donald
00:01:59.740 Trump. She also appeared on the stage alongside Tucker Carlson and RFK Jr. during a Tucker Carlson
00:02:08.440 live event. And she's become very popular in Republican circles. Why? Well, one of the things
00:02:15.120 that's very important to Tulsi Gabbard is a message of peace. You heard it a little bit in the opening
00:02:20.140 there. She talks about how Kamala Harris and the Democrats have become the party of war. She even
00:02:27.180 refers to former Vice President Dick Cheney as a warmonger, as an individual who wants to keep the
00:02:34.260 United States in a constant conflict to bolster what is being called the military, the industrial
00:02:40.620 military complex. So when we talk about America, we all know they spend a ton of money on their
00:02:45.360 military. And in fact, in Canada, we sort of rely on that. We take advantage on that. Our government
00:02:50.740 does not spend as much on the military as it should. It doesn't even meet its NATO targets,
00:02:55.900 which we've come under fire from our allies from that, probably because the prime minister's too
00:03:00.900 busy spending that money on tampons for men or something like that. And certainly we hope that
00:03:06.000 if we have a conservative government like it's looking in the next year, we can meet those NATO targets
00:03:09.980 because I do believe it is important for us as an ally to G7 nations to be meeting our basic
00:03:15.920 requirements. And that's not really a partisan talking point. I think that's something that
00:03:20.500 across all party lines, people generally agree that we should be meeting our NATO commitments.
00:03:25.200 But in the United States, they love their military. The United States is sort of seen as a leader in the
00:03:32.020 free world. It's seen as a power. And so, you know, they are quick to go into other countries
00:03:36.760 countries and in some cases to offer aid, but in some cases, you know, they actually come and it
00:03:43.720 results in conflict. And this is something that Tulsi Gabbard feels very strongly about. She just
00:03:48.740 wants to seek peaceful resolutions as much as possible. This is something that Donald Trump
00:03:53.540 was actually lauded for. He was a president that was very peaceful. If you think about what the world
00:03:59.420 was like when Donald Trump was president, things were very peaceful. And I know a lot of people think
00:04:05.360 about that now because it so often feels like we're on the brink of World War III with what's
00:04:11.040 going on in the Middle East right now. And when we look at Israel and all the conflicts they're having
00:04:16.180 with their surrounding neighbors, that's always been, you know, a hotbed for potential issues.
00:04:20.320 Israel has always been in a high conflict region and they've been able to somehow keep, you know,
00:04:26.640 an appearance of peace in the past. Obviously, there's always been conflict between the Palestinian
00:04:31.760 territories in Israel. But now that is continuing to escalate. And I think there's a lot of fear
00:04:36.120 from people in America that Americans are going to get dragged into this conflict and that American
00:04:41.560 men are going to be sent overseas to fight and to die. And Americans looking at this are not interested
00:04:46.640 any longer in getting dragged into these foreign conflicts. They want to have peace. They want their
00:04:52.060 men to stay home. You have to remember in the United States, men of fighting age can be drafted into
00:04:57.620 the military in certain cases. So they don't even have a choice. They would be simply drafted into
00:05:02.180 military and they would have to go fight overseas. So Tulsi Gabbard is looking at Donald Trump and
00:05:06.680 she's comparing what it was like when he was president and noticing how he desired peace and
00:05:12.560 how things were so peaceful under him and his presidency compared to Kamala Harris. And, you know,
00:05:20.040 we don't even have to say what it would be like under Kamala Harris. We know what it's like under Kamala
00:05:23.540 Harris, because she's the vice president now, and this is her administration. And we've seen
00:05:27.620 conflict escalating all around the world under her leadership and Joe Biden's leadership as well.
00:05:33.400 And so, you know, Tulsi Gabbard, that is something she feels very strongly about. And she was a
00:05:37.740 Democrat, as I mentioned for 20 years, she left to sit as an independent. And now in that first clip
00:05:42.700 that you hear, she's talking about how the Democrats have become the party of war and they are supported
00:05:49.600 by warmongers like Dick Cheney. And she gives that as a reason for her endorsement of Donald Trump.
00:05:55.460 And then later she goes into the fact that she'll be joining the Republican Party. I think that this
00:06:00.020 is a very strong, not only endorsement, but it's a very strong move for the Republicans because this
00:06:05.220 message of peace is so pertinent in the world and in America right now. Everyone is, you know,
00:06:13.620 Americans, they're not interested in getting into these international conflicts or not interested in
00:06:17.700 having their men sent overseas. And so this message of peace and we want to bring peace and
00:06:22.860 prosperity back to the United States. We don't want you at home having to be worried about getting
00:06:26.580 dragged into a conflict in Israel. I think that rings really strongly with Trump's base and with
00:06:32.380 more Americans writ large. You have to remember Tulsi Gabbard was a Democrat for 20 years. This is not
00:06:37.220 a move that someone makes very lightly. You're likely going to lose a lot of friends and potentially
00:06:42.400 even some family on your way out the door. If you remember when RFK Jr. gave his endorsement for
00:06:48.680 Donald Trump, his family came out and lambasted him publicly. Friends began being very critical of
00:06:54.540 him. You saw all these bizarre stories in the media being leaked about him. So these are very difficult
00:06:59.580 decisions to make. I don't think we should forget about that, how hard it is to change your mind on
00:07:06.240 something as strongly as politics. In many ways, politics has become the new religion and people
00:07:11.920 believe so strongly in their political ideology that they're even willing to cut off their family
00:07:17.040 or publicly try to shame their family in some cases. Personally, I think that's, I think it's a very vile
00:07:23.480 thing to do. I don't think you should speak ill about your family. Maybe if they're like a mass
00:07:28.000 murder, okay, then maybe you might have to make a comment about that. But because you're simply because
00:07:32.680 your family has different political ideology than you, it's not a reason to come out and to attempt
00:07:38.040 to shame them in the media. And when we look at some of the key Democrat figures that have joined
00:07:42.220 the Republicans, this is what they have to deal with. So I think this is a very strong move for
00:07:46.660 the Republicans because Tulsi has a big following. You can see why she's so eloquent. She's such a great
00:07:53.100 speaker. She's very, very attractive, easy to listen to, easy on the eyes, all the things. So here she is
00:07:58.540 talking about how she'll be joining the Republican party. Take a look at this first clip.
00:08:02.240 It's because of my love for our country and specifically because of the leadership that
00:08:07.280 President Trump has brought to transform the Republican party and bring it back to the party
00:08:13.680 of the people and the party of peace that I'm proud to stand here with you today, President Trump,
00:08:20.100 and announce that I'm joining the Republican party.
00:08:26.100 So that really is such a strong win for the Republicans. It even goes a step further than an
00:08:32.100 endorsement in saying that, you know, I believe that Donald Trump is the best candidate for the
00:08:37.220 presidency of the United States of America. It goes a step further than that because she's so
00:08:41.520 convicted in her beliefs that Donald Trump is the best candidate that she's actually willing
00:08:45.860 to let him lead her. She is willing to be a member and potentially even a candidate for the
00:08:52.020 Republican party and to have Donald Trump lead that party. That is a very strong indication that she
00:08:58.000 believes in his candidacy because she's willing to be led by him. So I think, you know, I think this
00:09:03.580 is a great move, as I mentioned, for the Democrats. I think this will play really strongly with their
00:09:08.340 base, but also with some undecided voters in the middle. So that is just one of the reasons why I
00:09:14.720 said currently, based on what we know right now, based on where we're at in the election cycle,
00:09:19.400 things can change very quickly. As you know, I actually kind of got the sense that the Republicans
00:09:23.920 were not doing too well, that the Democrats had the momentum up until Trump went back to Butler,
00:09:29.260 Pennsylvania with Elon Musk. That was when I told you all I felt a shift in the campaign. And at this
00:09:34.180 point, I'm feeling like there's a very strong potential for it to be a Republican win in
00:09:39.380 November. I'm certainly very excited to cover that election. I'm just wondering when we're even going
00:09:44.300 to know the results of the election because it's become so normal. I talked about this on the Rachel
00:09:48.940 Parker show yesterday. It's just becoming so normalized that voters can't expect to know
00:09:54.840 the results of an election within a timely manner. It used to be you'd have election day and you would
00:09:59.860 know the results by election night. But with the process of mail and ballots that we're allowing
00:10:04.580 with some of the vote tabulators, which count votes that were cast, that were cast in other,
00:10:11.140 you might, you might be able to vote somewhere that's not like your home riding. It's just taking
00:10:15.380 forever for people to be able to tally the votes. And so, you know, I think that's causing a big
00:10:19.740 trust in the democratic process and top commentators that I've been listening to like Megyn Kelly have
00:10:24.260 said, you know, we don't actually know when we're going to know the results of the US election. So
00:10:27.960 that's very concerning. And it's also just frustrating for me as a journalist to try to
00:10:31.440 cover and for all of you viewers at home who want to know the results and you want to know what's
00:10:35.900 happening. Okay, let's move into another big thing that happened in the past few days. I'm sure you
00:10:40.500 guys caught some of this online. The Al Smith dinner, it's a charity dinner for Catholic charities
00:10:47.100 that help children in New York. It's a very prestigious dinner. Donald Trump went to that
00:10:52.340 dinner and he honestly, he, he hit it out of the park. It was, I, I tend to find Donald Trump to
00:10:59.380 just be like a very funny figure. Like, I don't know what it is about him. Just the way he holds
00:11:04.420 himself. I, I just always get a kick out of him. I'm sure I've shared that with you guys before.
00:11:08.460 He's just so funny to me. He's always doing funny mannerisms. He makes these kind of off the cuff
00:11:13.920 remarks. It's just sort of a, I think it tends to happen when someone's very comfortable with
00:11:18.560 themselves and they're very confident. You can have sort of a self deprecating humor. And so he
00:11:23.000 hit it out of the park at the Al Smith dinner. I compiled what I thought were his best moments of
00:11:28.680 the night for you guys to watch. So here's Donald Trump at the Al Smith dinner, his best moments of the
00:11:34.280 night, in my opinion, in halls that I'm supposed to tell a few self deprecating jokes this evening.
00:11:40.860 So here it goes. Nope. I've got nothing. I've got nothing. There's nothing to say.
00:11:53.780 I guess I just don't see the point of taking shots at myself when other people have been
00:11:59.200 shooting at me for a hell of a long time and they shoot at me. But I must say I was shocked when I
00:12:06.600 heard that Kamala was skipping the Al Smith dinner. I'd really hope that she would come because we
00:12:12.160 can't get enough of hearing her beautiful laugh. She laughs like crazy. We would recognize it any
00:12:18.740 place in this room and Joe has almost disappeared from view. The only way he could
00:12:24.620 be seen less is if he had a show on CNN. They ain't nothing. There's a group called White Dudes
00:12:31.420 for Harris. Have you seen this? White Dudes for Harris. Anybody know? Are some of you here? White
00:12:36.600 dudes for Harris. Doesn't sound like it. But I'm not worried about them at all because their wives and
00:12:42.780 their wives lovers are all voting for me. Okay, so definitely some of the best moments of the night,
00:12:50.620 but go back, watch the full video. You will not be disappointed. I promise. It is worth the,
00:12:57.620 I don't remember how long was 15, 20 minutes, but you'll get a kick out of it. No doubt about that.
00:13:02.680 So for those of you who aren't super familiar, the Al Smith is an annual dinner. The major political
00:13:08.460 candidates always show up to it. As I mentioned, it is a charity event. It raises money for Catholic
00:13:13.760 charities. Probably an even worse look that Kamala Harris didn't attend, given that video the other
00:13:19.840 week of Gretchen Whitmer appearing to be mocking the Lord's Supper, where she had someone place a
00:13:25.200 Dorito in her mouth while she was on the knees. And the reason that people felt so strongly that
00:13:29.220 Governor Whitmer was mocking Catholics is because Catholics actually, in some, some types of Catholics
00:13:35.760 receive the Lord's Supper on their knees. I'm Protestant. Typically, we will either go up to the
00:13:41.780 front of the church to receive it, or we will simply receive it while seated in our pews. But if
00:13:46.700 you're Catholic, you'll tend to go on your knees. So, you know, the, the Dems already are not doing
00:13:51.240 too well with the Catholics, given that pretty big, uh, gaffe from Governor Whitmer. And then
00:13:56.360 Kamala Harris chose to skip this event. She did send a prerecorded video. We're not going to play
00:14:01.620 it today. It was utterly cringy. And I know you guys just don't want to see it at home. So we're
00:14:08.680 going to focus on the Republican campaign today. But one of the reasons that it was so strange that
00:14:14.380 Kamala Harris skipped this dinner is because that was actually the first time in nearly four decades
00:14:20.520 that a major party presidential candidate skipped the center. So it's just the candidates always go.
00:14:25.900 That's just sort of one of those things. They always go, they always give their speech. And I
00:14:29.580 felt that it was, would have been sort of an easy opportunity for her because she could have pre
00:14:34.480 written out her speech, or I should say she could have had her staff pre write out her comments. She
00:14:39.120 wouldn't have had to, she wouldn't have been asked questions. You know, she could have come totally
00:14:43.060 prepared. And you know, we know that Kamala Harris is tends not to be the best on her feet in
00:14:47.240 interviews. She really struggles in an interview setting. But in situations where you can pre write
00:14:52.880 a speech, it seems like it would have been an easy win for her as well. You know, she could have
00:14:58.460 poked fun at Donald Trump. And I feel like those clips tend to go viral. Some of the clips I've just
00:15:03.240 shown you guys, as I mentioned, I'm sure you've seen them already, because people love this type of
00:15:07.340 political content, just because it's something of a bit of a more lighthearted nature. Politicians often
00:15:13.000 will address sort of like the elephant in the room of the campaigns that no one's talking about.
00:15:17.220 They'll just sort of say this awkward thing happened. Everyone's like, yep. And especially
00:15:20.840 if you're able to laugh at yourself, then it can take potentially a moment in the campaign that was
00:15:26.980 awkward, or that was a bit of a miss for you. And if you're able to spin it later on and laugh at it,
00:15:31.980 then that can play really, really well for you. And everyone can be like, okay, you know,
00:15:35.120 he actually recovered from that later on, because he was able to laugh at this is something that
00:15:39.120 Donald Trump has done very well in the past. You'll notice there he made that remark. I'm not
00:15:43.800 going to make any self-deprecating remarks about myself because you guys are all doing it for me
00:15:47.720 already. Everyone else is taking shots at me. And of course, there, that was a rather effective line
00:15:52.840 because he was referring to his opponents. He was referring to the American press. And he was also
00:15:59.360 talking literally about the shots that were fired. So had multiple meanings. And I think as an opening
00:16:04.420 line that did really well for him, and it was just such a missed opportunity for Kamala because
00:16:09.040 it's not difficult to prepare these types of remarks at an event. I remember when I did the
00:16:15.900 opening for Tucker Carlson, when he was in Edmonton, I know some of you were at that event
00:16:20.020 and I actually, um, announced that Daniel Smith was going to be coming on next. I basically opened for
00:16:25.140 her and, you know, I kind of just sat down and I was like, and people that I was working with that
00:16:29.720 were organizing the event were like, you really need to get the energy up in the crowd. So I
00:16:34.400 was like, okay, well, I don't tend to have the loudest voice. I tend to be pretty monotone.
00:16:39.440 You know, I'm not really the person to come in fist pumping. I'm no Tim Waltz, so to speak,
00:16:43.820 and to get the crowd going. But what I can do is I can probably come up with a few, uh, clever
00:16:49.100 comments to make people laugh and to lift their spirits that way and to get a really good energy
00:16:53.220 throughout the crowd. And that was not hard to do at all because you have all the material in the
00:16:57.720 world to work with. You just need to look for some relical political relevant political context and
00:17:02.700 point to that. And people tend to get very excited. So, so that's what I did. It's really
00:17:07.020 not hard to do this type of thing. And so I'm sure that even the Commonwealth Harris campaign
00:17:11.600 with all their idiocy could have done a half decent job, uh, at presenting something at this
00:17:16.780 event. Instead, they skipped it. That was pointed out by Donald Trump repeatedly. And he actually
00:17:21.320 said in his speech, I didn't cut this part for you because I wanted to share it with you
00:17:24.360 that the last time a major party presidential candidate skipped this event was Walter Mondell's
00:17:31.900 absence in 1984. Now, when they said Walter Mondell's name, I was like, who the heck is
00:17:36.160 that? 1984 was well before I was born to be fair, but maybe another reason why I wasn't sure who he
00:17:42.360 was is because he was absolutely decimated in the election after skipping this dinner. He actually lost
00:17:49.720 every state except for Minnesota, his home state. And that was in the election that was run by
00:17:55.060 probably the most popular American president of all time, Ronald Reagan. So, you know, Walter
00:18:00.120 Mondell, his legacy did not carry on after skipping this dinner. So I think probably things are not
00:18:05.940 voting well for Kamala Harris. The fact that she skipped this dinner shows really a lack of confidence in
00:18:11.200 herself. And I think a lack of confidence in her campaign. And instead she missed the dinner,
00:18:16.960 Donald Trump and New York elites who, by the way, when Donald Trump first went to this dinner back
00:18:22.220 in 2016, he was not popular. They did not laugh at a lot of his jokes and instead they booed him
00:18:27.160 and here they are. And he's a popular figure at these events. You can hear him laughing at their
00:18:31.260 jokes. So even they know Kamala Harris is essentially screwed in this election. Okay. And I just really
00:18:36.280 quickly wanted to touch on one last thing that happened in the Trump campaign this week.
00:18:40.560 Take a look at this president working at a very popular fast food chain in the States.
00:18:46.960 Mr. President, you actually have worked at McDonald's now versus-
00:18:49.960 Now I have worked at McDonald's. I've now worked for 15 minutes more than Kamala.
00:18:54.580 Are you going to put this on your resume?
00:18:56.040 I never worked here.
00:18:57.440 Why would she lie about something like that?
00:18:59.980 So this was just kind of a fun moment from the president. You can catch a few other clips
00:19:04.520 of that, of him inside, you know, frying up the French fries and the oil. A couple of reasons
00:19:10.100 this plays well for the president. One is because he genuinely does love McDonald's. I'm sure you've
00:19:15.000 seen some photos of him at the White House surrounded by bags of McDonald's. You've read
00:19:18.900 the reports about how he eats an insane amount of McDonald's. He loves to drink pop. And also,
00:19:23.460 if you fly on Air Force One, the official meal that you're served is McDonald's. I do tend
00:19:29.240 to feel a little bit bad for some of the reporters. I can't function off McDonald's. Like I eat it
00:19:33.460 maybe like two times a year. And the rest of the day is an absolute write off. I'm in bed,
00:19:38.180 just sleeping it off because that food is absolutely toxic and it just destroys my body.
00:19:44.380 I do actually have a bit of respect for people that can eat it and still function normally because
00:19:48.420 I'm just out. Tucker Carlson recently released the first few episodes of his documentary on
00:19:55.360 Donald Trump. I definitely recommend it. It's called The Art of the Surge, sort of a play on
00:20:01.180 Donald Trump's book title, The Art of the Deal. And they cover the assassination attempt in it,
00:20:06.560 of course, which I was at. And you can get sort of a different viewpoint because Tucker Carlson had
00:20:11.420 staff that were right up close when it happened. And even for me watching it, I was like, oh,
00:20:15.980 this is a totally different scene right here close to where the shooting happened.
00:20:19.180 I was very far back in the media pit and people where I was tended to be a little bit more calm.
00:20:25.020 But it was funny because Tucker Carlson, this network staff that were doing the documentary,
00:20:29.140 they were on Air Force One with the president and they were showing what the meal was after debate
00:20:33.800 night. And of course, they were being served McDonald's. So Donald Trump really does love
00:20:39.060 McDonald's. So that was sort of the one fun aspect of him being there. America loves McDonald's way
00:20:44.980 more than Canada. We have Tim Hortons, although that has degraded significantly. I know fast food
00:20:50.860 chain writ large has degraded, but Tim Hortons seems particularly bad these days. I actually just don't
00:20:55.820 eat there anymore. I covered that fairly extensively yesterday on The Rachel Parker Show. So definitely
00:21:00.300 go back and listen to that. And I'm sure most of you are going to be like my comments, McDonald's,
00:21:05.140 Tim Hortons sucks. We don't, we don't eat there anymore. I know those comments are coming and I'm
00:21:09.100 with you guys. If you still have good McDonald's food, maybe the specific employees at your local,
00:21:14.980 sorry, I was Tim Hortons. If you still have good Tim Hortons food, maybe the specific employees at
00:21:19.100 your Tim Hortons just care a little more and aren't serving raw food, but it's largely just pre-cooked and
00:21:24.260 then packaged frozen and heated up nowadays. So quality is super downgraded, but America still
00:21:29.460 loves their McDonald's. I would say even more than Canadians love their Tim Hortons,
00:21:34.140 especially in this particular context of the quality being so degraded. And so there was that
00:21:39.060 for a moment, but then the best moment of that clip was you hear Trump say, I've worked at McDonald's
00:21:44.220 for 15 minutes longer than Kamala Harris. And the joke there is that Kamala Harris has said she worked
00:21:50.640 at McDonald's and there's no evidence that that's been found of this. No one was able to find an example
00:21:54.780 of her actually having worked at McDonald's. So again, you see sort of this campaign move from
00:22:00.360 Donald Trump and it had more than one reason to it. Just, it's a fun, lighthearted thing to do.
00:22:04.760 And also in another way, it's more personally poking fun at the Kamala Harris campaign. Of course,
00:22:10.960 the media was trying to run cover for Kamala Harris. Some of the most ridiculous headlines in
00:22:15.920 the days following first, there was reports that the McDonald's stock was dropping. And then of course,
00:22:22.320 there was a report that there was an E. coli outbreak from some McDonald's food. So they were
00:22:27.580 doing their best to sort of, um, trying to shade Donald Trump and the excitement that his event at
00:22:35.100 the McDonald's got. And the other more hilarious part of the story was there was actually some
00:22:39.960 headlines. We'll throw one up for you in the day, in the hours following this event that the
00:22:45.120 Donald Trump event at the McDonald's was staged as if we didn't actually know that he didn't work
00:22:51.300 there. I just thought he was running for president on the side. You know, I thought he spent maybe
00:22:55.480 like 15 to 20 minutes a day doing that. And I thought he worked like an, he, he comes from his
00:22:59.360 eight hour shift at McDonald's, right? Like he's, he's flipping burgers and, and oiling French fries
00:23:04.940 all day. And then he, he just shows up at a campaign rally. That's what actually happened,
00:23:08.060 right? Oh, oh no. He's actually, oh, it was staged. Okay. As if we didn't all already know that as
00:23:13.920 if everything that happens in politics isn't essentially staged. When a president goes to,
00:23:18.660 for example, when Trump goes to the border wall and holds an event there, is that not a staged
00:23:23.060 event? Those people just wouldn't naturally happen to have been at the border wall. They go
00:23:27.460 there to hold an event to say, Hey, we're here at the border today. We're very concerned about the
00:23:31.720 migrant crisis. Uh, we just learned that there's a caravan of 2000 migrants coming towards this
00:23:37.540 border. They're headed here right now. They should be here in about a week. And our border agents are
00:23:42.160 telling us they don't have the resources they need. They're telling us that this would be stopped if
00:23:46.440 the border wall is finished. That's a staged event. They go to a particular place to make a
00:23:50.680 particular point. That's essentially what politics is. It's all staged events. Yes. Of course. Then
00:23:55.580 there's the actual governing aspect of politics where you're passing legislation, legislation and
00:24:00.140 policy, but all the other stuff is staged events to make points and to talk to people about relevant
00:24:05.180 issues. We know that I get that you get that that's not news to us. So the fact that some of these
00:24:10.320 headlines were being written about stage events, I'm assuming there's maybe some political
00:24:14.540 commentators in the States who are still getting up to speed about what exactly it is that politics
00:24:20.460 is. All right, everyone, that's all we have time for today. You're not going to want to miss next
00:24:24.800 week's episode. It's going to be prerecorded at the true North nation event in Calgary this weekend.
00:24:31.280 There might still be a couple of tickets left. If you guys haven't gotten it yet, I'll be speaking
00:24:35.060 there. My colleagues like, uh, Harrison Faulkner will be speaking. You guys are not going to want to
00:24:40.160 miss. It's going to be a great event. I know there's going to be a lot of coverage on what's going
00:24:43.820 on in Canada and Alberta, but I have a special presentation for you all about the U S election
00:24:49.180 will be content. I have not covered on this show yet. And we're going to specifically be diving into
00:24:55.400 the American election and some of the nefarious activities that are going on. Sometimes we talk
00:25:00.700 about a stolen election and today, you know, I've given you all the reasons why I think the Trump
00:25:06.300 campaign is leading, why the Democrats are scrambling with their ridiculous headlines about
00:25:10.940 staged political events. And we're going to take a closer look at some of the nefarious things that
00:25:17.500 are going on specifically with voting in the United States. So that'll be happening live on Saturday in
00:25:23.580 Calgary. But for those of you who are not in the area are not able to make it, we are going to record
00:25:28.780 it and I will be sure to have it for you next week because I haven't covered that topic extensively.
00:25:34.060 And, you know, we all talk about stolen elections a lot. And I think the Democrats often accused Trump
00:25:40.460 of basically teeing up the election to say that it was stolen to say, Oh, you know, to say, to say that
00:25:45.820 he, if he loses to say that the election was stolen, but there's already things going on right now with
00:25:50.140 voting in the Amer in the United States that are of concern. And I think it's important that you guys
00:25:54.940 are armed with the facts. So when people talk about, you know, Oh, Trump said the election was
00:25:59.820 stolen. Well, actually there was some, there was some wrongdoing. There was some cases of
00:26:05.180 people who voted that should not have been able to vote. There was some cases where certain states
00:26:10.060 shut down voter registration during Trump rallies. So there has certainly been some untoward actions.
00:26:16.940 And I think it's important that you guys know exactly what's going on. So I'll have that live on
00:26:21.580 Saturday and then next week. Thank you so much for joining me today. I'm Rachel Parker,
00:26:26.140 and this is Rachel in the Republic.
