00:00:04.000Well, thank you so much, General Flynn, for that kind, wonderful, extraordinary introduction.
00:00:08.000And thank you so much for being here today.
00:00:11.000I really appreciate your support and your advocacy for my America First Candidate candidacy and for this country.
00:00:17.000It means the world to me and also to the voters who live here in Florida's 11th district.
00:00:22.000I'd also like to thank you for your extraordinary service to our great nation, for your leadership during these troublesome times in our country, and for standing in the gap when so many have abandoned their posts.
00:02:25.000We truly have the most elite ground game operation, not just in the state of Florida, but in the entire country.
00:02:33.000I have some of the most elite political operatives, the most sought-after people working on my campaign to ensure that District 11 is the district that sends a fighter who's going to lead this hostile takeover of the Republican Party in Washington, D.C. Thank you so much also to the Wildwood Police Department.
00:02:56.000They're here tonight providing security for us.
00:02:59.000And I just want to thank all of our law enforcement officers because it truly is, it seems like it really is a thankless profession these days, you know, with the assault and the war that is being waged on our law enforcement officers by the Biden regime and the Democrat Party.
00:03:18.000Before we begin tonight, I would like us all to take a moment of silence and say a prayer and really just think of these innocent 21 people who were gunned down by a madman in Texas in an elementary school yesterday.
00:03:30.00019 innocent children under the age of 10 years old and two teachers who were just, you know, teaching children, going to school, those innocent children, they were receiving honors awards and the honor roll that morning with their parents and just hours later they lost their lives.
00:03:45.000And so many families are grieving tonight.
00:03:48.000And I just want us to take a moment of silence to think of those people.
00:04:11.000I'm so grateful to be standing here with all of you in Wildwood in the great state of Florida, and I really appreciate everyone who came out tonight to support my campaign.
00:04:37.000We really need God more than ever in our country today.
00:04:40.000And I think what happened in Texas yesterday, and when you look around and you see all of the division that's taking place in our country, it seems like we're almost living on two different planets, right?
00:04:49.000With the way that the American people and the Republican Party and the Democrat Party and within our own parties, how we have become so divided.
00:04:56.000And we tend to forget that at the end of the day, we're all Americans.
00:05:02.000Many of you know that I graduated valedictorian from Barrie University in Miami, Florida, where I was the president of the College of Republicans and also a broadcast journalism major and a political science minor.
00:05:14.000I consider myself to be a student of history.
00:05:18.000For decades, I have read, studied, and been steeped in the celebrated literature, documents, and speeches of our founding fathers and the men who came before them, like political philosophers, including John Jacques Rousseau, Aristotle, and John Locke.
00:05:33.000It is said that Thomas Jefferson adopted Locke's theory of natural rights to provide a reason for revolution.
00:05:40.000Locke is notable for making the statement that all men have the right to pursue life, liberty, and property.
00:05:47.000In the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson altered this statement to state that all men have a right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
00:05:59.000John Locke fused individualism within the framework of the law of nature and the limits of legitimate government authority.
00:06:05.000Locke's work then inspired the Declaration of Independence and subsequently the greatest document of all, the United States Constitution.
00:06:14.000But no letter or speech has lingered in my mind or my heart more than President George Washington's powerful warning against factionalism, political tribalism, and corruption, because everything that George Washington warned us about has come to pass and is happening today in our country.
00:06:37.000226 years ago, America's first president, George Washington, published a farewell address that has endured as one of the most prophetic warnings from history of the dangers of divisiveness, loyalty to party over nation, and the influence of foreign powers in American domestic affairs.
00:06:56.000He wrote, you have in a common cause fought and triumphed together.
00:07:01.000The independence and liberty you possess are the work of joint councils and joint efforts of common dangers, sufferings, and successes.
00:07:09.000Your union ought to be considered as a main prop of your liberty, and the love of the one ought to endear you to the preservation of the other.
00:07:19.000Compare this with America today in 2022, which so often feels like two completely different countries moving in opposite directions with different priorities, interests, and even moralities, working from a different set of facts and assumptions, and with completely different visions for our country of what an ideal society is supposed to look like.
00:07:43.000We see this happening today with our current two-party system, which nowadays, if we're being honest with each other, it really just feels more like a uniparty.
00:07:51.000You know, we're told that we have a Republican Party and that we have a Democrat Party, but at the end of the day, it just feels like it's us against them.
00:07:58.000And when I say us against them, it feels more like us, the American people, against both political party establishments that are working overtime to screw the American people.
00:08:07.000It's a uniparty of globalists, multinational corporations, and communists.
00:08:19.000Yes, I'm using the word communist because that is exactly what we are.
00:08:22.000And we are not going to take back our country if we continue to be around the bush, if we continue to dilute our words and the true meanings that these words have.
00:08:33.000These communists are determined to destroy the American dream by breaking the spirit in the backs of the American people by bankrupting them, silencing them, enslaving them, and controlling them through a new world order.
00:08:50.000When you look at America today, the two parties couldn't be further divided when it comes to what is right and what is wrong, what is good and what is evil.
00:09:01.000Part of the problem is that Americans still relate to one another in terms of this two-party dichotomy, right?
00:09:07.000Along the lines of Democrat and Republican lanes, right?
00:09:10.000They tell you to stay in your political lane.
00:09:14.000Washington warned and he said that citizens who vote for party over country would slip into what he called a spirit of revenge.
00:09:23.000And that the politicians who would benefit would be ambitious and unprincipled swindlers who would snatch and then destroy the instruments and engines of governments as they were intended to be.
00:09:38.000Can anyone claim that this has not yet to come here in America today?
00:09:44.000Even though some of those old categories, right versus left, Republican versus Democrat, liberal versus conservative, are dissolving and they're no longer useful ways to think about our differences.
00:09:57.000It seems as though all of society's institutions are still organized along the perception of Democrat and Republican lines.
00:10:05.000And just look at the sword of elective officials we're getting as a result of this process, this extremely broken and corrupt, crooked process.
00:10:15.000Just look at what's happening right now.
00:10:27.000They have taken over the castle, and it is time for warriors to drive them out.
00:10:50.000This is not a request, it is a demand.
00:10:53.000The Republican Party must purge itself of rhinos, of obstructionist rhino-Republican scum like Kevin McCarthy, Mitch McConnell, Ron Arami, and do nothing Daniel Webster.
00:11:21.000mentally We are demanding that they leave.
00:11:24.000And if they refuse, we will replace you.
00:11:57.000You see, today we see the exact opposite happening, the exact opposite of what it means to be an America first patriot, to what it means to have, right, to practice that America first philosophy in your day-to-day life.
00:12:11.000And in our own party, right, Kevin McCarthy and the rest of the feckless GOP establishment, they want compliant minions.
00:12:30.000The Republican Party doesn't want strong America First candidates.
00:12:34.000They don't want candidates who are supporting Donald Trump, believe it or not.
00:12:37.000They don't want candidates like me who are going to vote to give money back to the American people as opposed to sending billions of dollars overseas to foreigners, right?
00:12:47.000They don't want that, despite what they may claim in their stamming fundraising text messages.
00:13:06.000They will not take our nation back from the communist barbarians who don't play by the rules.
00:13:10.000They don't care very much for our nation, our history, our values, the fact that they're all being destroyed because their intent is the same as the communists.
00:13:20.000Their intent is to burn down our republic and start all over with total opposition control.
00:13:35.000Just take a look around, right, what is happening here every day in America.
00:13:39.000Look at what is happening in our country today.
00:13:56.000Last month alone, illegal border crossings reached an all-time high of 234,000 illegal alien criminal invaders.
00:14:06.000And that's just the ones that they caught.
00:14:08.000That's just the ones that they counted.
00:14:10.000Do you think they're really being honest about the immigration crisis, this invasion on our southern border?
00:14:16.000Our public resources in America are being bled dry by criminal, illegal immigration.
00:14:21.000Our schools and our hospitals are being overrun by non-paying, non-contributing criminal illegals, while our communities are being filled with violence, crime, drugs, and fear.
00:14:35.000And hidden like needles and haystacks are the terrorists, right?
00:14:39.000The terrorists, the violent Islamic jihadist terrorists who cross into our country illegally, infiltrating our country among the hordes streaming across our southern border.
00:14:49.000And now they have even infiltrated the United States Congress.
00:15:02.000Democrats are fighting to give illegal aliens a voice in our elections here in America by hiding voting legislation in a strict NASA bill, which was once referred to as the John Lewis Voting Rights Bill.
00:15:13.000And these Republicans, these feckless Republicans, are either too lazy, too stupid, or too complicit, or all of the above, to read this legislation.
00:15:22.000And yes, I'm talking about my opponent, Do Nothing Dan Webster, who is one of those Republicans who was too lazy, too complicit, too stupid, or all of the above to read through that bill.
00:15:33.000And when the Democrats two months ago voted to federalize our elections by giving illegal aliens the right to vote, your Congressman Daniel Webster didn't even show up to vote.
00:15:47.000Daniel Webster's absenteeism is inexcusable, and it is truly nothing but dereliction of duty.
00:15:55.000Daniel Webster is listed as the seventh most absent member of Congress, and his absence at key votes, like the one I just mentioned, along with the vote on the second impeachment of President Donald Trump and the vote on the January 6th Commission, which is now resulting in over hundreds of political prisoners in our country and thousands of Americans having their rights denied and stripped of them by a witch hunt commission that has been weaponized against the American people.
00:16:24.000When Daniel Webster does not show up to vote, you are silenced.
00:16:29.000The constituents of District 11 are deprived of their voice when your representative doesn't show up to give you a voice in Washington.
00:16:40.000And the last thing I want is for any of you to experience what I've experienced as the most banned woman in the world and the only Deplatforms and Silence candidate.
00:16:47.000And that is why, unless I'm literally dead or incapacitated, I will never be missing a vote in Congress.
00:17:27.000They will tell you that illegal aliens, right, they call them undocumented.
00:17:30.000Now they think that everybody is welcome here.
00:17:33.000They think that it's racist, white supremacist, to call people illegal aliens.
00:17:36.000They will tell you that there are only 15 million illegals in this country and that it is only, right, costing Americans $200 billion a year.
00:17:45.000But actually, that number, like I said, is $40 million.
00:17:48.000And when you do the math, the taxpayers of this country are spending over $600 billion a year paying for illegal alien invaders who are getting better benefits than some of the senior citizens living here in District 11, here in the villages, the oldest district in the nation per capita.
00:18:05.000Better benefits than many of the veterans.
00:18:08.000Do you have any veterans in the room tonight?
00:18:13.000Please stand if you are a veteran. Thank you.
00:18:29.000Veterans should be honored every single day in this country.
00:18:32.000And as we approach Memorial Day coming up on Monday, I am pissed off.
00:18:37.000I am pissed off that the Biden regime is giving better benefits and better treatment to illegal alien criminals who should be deported and sent back to where they came from than the veterans and the fallen patriots and the families of these fallen heroes who stand among us today, right?
00:18:55.000They're getting better benefits than our American heroes.
00:19:12.000Do you know what would happen if the Democrats got their way and they federalized our elections and 40 million illegal aliens got the right to vote?
00:19:20.000Daniel Webster doesn't seem to care because he didn't show up to vote.
00:19:23.000If 40 million illegal aliens are given the right to vote in this country, never again will a Republican on any level of office in this country be elected in the United States of America.
00:19:34.000And that is exactly why they're doing this.
00:19:37.000Make no mistake, the Democrats are not allowing for a free flow of illegal immigration into this country out of compassion or humanitarianism.
00:19:44.000They're doing it intentionally to secure future generations of voters to replace American majorities.
00:19:50.000And it's a calculated part of their design destruction of America and the United States Constitution.
00:20:09.000While the media continues to look the other way as America spins downward into a full-blown economic crisis and stock market crash, inflation has hit a 40-year high under the Biden regime.
00:20:38.000We are certainly not going to be lowering inflation in this country by funding an open invasion, an invasion on our southern border.
00:20:48.000And I use the word invasion because this is an act of war.
00:20:52.000General Flynn can tell you this is the only country in the world that wouldn't open fire on invaders when you have over 3 million people coming across your border illegally.
00:21:02.000That is when other nations, right, what they do in Israel, every other country in the world that protects a sovereign border, fires upon invaders.
00:21:11.000It is viewed as an act of war when you illegally trespass into another country.
00:21:19.000And it is time for us to stop dancing around this under the guise of humanitarianism.
00:21:25.000Where is the humanitarianism for American families that are struggling right now, paying nearly $5 a gallon at the pump?
00:21:31.000Where is the humanitarianism for the families who are making decisions about whether or not they're going to put food on the table or gas in their car?
00:21:40.000Where is the humanitarianism for senior citizens living on fixed incomes who are barely getting by on $600 to $700 a month, while Joe Biden is giving illegal aliens checks for half a million dollars?
00:22:06.000And I'm not afraid to say, I don't care what they call me.
00:22:09.000I don't care if they call me a racist, a bigot, a white supremacist.
00:22:12.000don't care because at the end of the day the only thing I care about is whether I'm making you happy you know discretionary spending the money left over for a family after all essentials is covered is taking tanking due to inflation
00:22:34.000From March to April alone this year, in a single month, the national price of a gallon of milk has gone from $3.59 to $4.21.
00:22:44.000The national average for a gallon of gas is almost $5, and a gallon of gas is expected to cost over $7 by August.
00:22:54.000Working families are feeling this pain right now.
00:22:59.000With gas prices at all-time highs, Americans are limiting their travel to the bare essentials, with many families choosing to stay home rather than use a quarter of a tank of gas on Sunday mornings to go to church.
00:23:14.000I meet voters like this and constituents who this is their lifestyle every single day, thanks to the Democrats and their design of destruction.
00:23:22.000The average family in America has less than $1,500 left for discretionary spending after rent, utilities, car payments, and health insurance.
00:23:30.000After groceries and an $80 tank of gas, the average family of four is lucky.
00:23:35.000They're lucky if they have a few extra dollars to spend at the end of the month.
00:23:39.000God forbid they have a veterinary bill, a medical emergency, or their car breaks down.
00:23:45.000President Ronald Reagan knew the seriousness of inflation when he said, inflation is as violent as a mugger, as frightening as an armed robber, and as deadly as a hitman.
00:23:56.000American families are experiencing this right now.
00:24:00.000The residents of District 11 are experiencing this right now.
00:24:03.000They are literally being held hostage by the economic crisis created by the disastrous and illegitimate Biden administration.
00:24:15.000that's right i said illegitimate because the 2020 election was stolen and i'm not afraid to say it do nothing damn who doesn't believe the 2020 election was stolen American families are filled with nothing but sadness and despair right now.
00:24:53.000I know I feel hopeless some days, right?
00:24:55.000With the Democrats' design of destruction.
00:24:57.000But that's exactly what these communists want.
00:25:00.000They want Americans begging to be saved by the government.
00:25:04.000And as American families are being crushed by inflation, the Democrats are scrambling constantly to keep their loyal comrades frantically on fire and distracted by a constant public narrative of outrage.
00:25:16.000Students, youth, and easily manipulated consumers of fake news are being radicalized and sent to the streets with encouragement from Joe Biden to scream and wreak havoc over the Supreme Court's long-overdue decision to overturn Roe versus Wade and Planned Parenthood versus Casey.
00:25:34.000And personally, the leftist cries absolutely disgust me.
00:25:38.000Their mantra of my body, my choice, undermines humanity.
00:25:42.000And we must continue to remind them that the body growing within their body is not their body.
00:26:02.000And as Mother Teresa said, abortion has become the greatest destroyer of peace because it destroys two lives, the lives of the child and the conscience of the mother.
00:26:13.000But I would like to add: abortion also destroys the souls of fathers.
00:26:18.000I know one of those dads, and I work with him closely each day and consider him a close friend.
00:26:24.000He helps me with my campaign fundraising.
00:26:27.000I want to tell you the story of my friend Shane's son, a baby boy named Moon.
00:26:32.000Moon was five months old when his mother made the decision to end his life in a brutal dilation and evacuation abortion.
00:26:40.000Moon was perfectly healthy, and he was just a few weeks away from being able to survive outside the womb.
00:26:47.000But instead, Moon was torn apart while he was still alive.
00:26:52.000Shane and Moon's mother are obviously no longer together, but they are both successful and they were capable, right?
00:26:59.000They didn't have any financial issues.
00:27:01.000They were more than capable of raising a child on their own.
00:27:05.000However, Moon's mother left one day to go visit her very volatile leftist family, and they convinced her to get an abortion.
00:27:15.000She didn't return, and baby Moon was dead 23 days later.
00:28:45.000He's usually the first person I text every morning to see what we're going to be sending out on the campaign.
00:28:51.000I've been worried about him beforehand.
00:28:53.000And then when he finally called me back and we spoke, he told me why he went dark.
00:28:58.000And I could hear the cries of a grown man over the phone.
00:29:01.000Leftists say that men are not impacted by abortion and should have no voice.
00:29:05.000But tell that to Shane, a combat veteran who walked through hell for our nation, only to be brought to his knees by abortion policies in America that led to the murder of his own son.
00:29:16.000Shane was not given the decency to have a chance to plead for the life of his own child, to plead for Moon's life, and his grief is unfortunately common among many men.
00:29:25.000Over 22 million American men have been put in the same position as Shane, being deprived of any say in their child's life.
00:29:34.000These fathers are forgotten in the pro-abortion chorus of My Body, My Choice.
00:29:39.000And because they don't have a uterus, despite the Democrats' insane claims that men can get pregnant and have babies, feminists actually believe that men are to have zero say over the life that they created together with their wives and their partners.
00:29:55.000We have an obligation to fight for baby Moon and all of the other victims of abortion.
00:30:00.000The nearly 63 million babies in America who have been murdered through abortion.
00:30:11.000We have an obligation to save lives by fighting against the ignorance and the hates of the left.
00:30:16.000And we have an obligation to spread truth and real science, which teaches us that life begins at conception and that we are all created and born in the image of God.
00:30:44.000When a person lacks the courage to face their shame, anger is what manifests.
00:30:49.000The anger in the eyes of Elizabeth Warren and the angry feminists on the streets of America that you see right now in front of the homes of the Supreme Court justices, it's a symptom of their refusal to have the courage to face their shame.
00:31:02.000The shame that they feel over killing their own child.
00:31:06.000They should be ashamed of their unscientific position on abortion.
00:31:11.000People cheering on abortion in the streets should be appalled with themselves for advocating for the murder of babies who are capable of feeling pain.
00:31:19.000The Democrat Party should be ashamed of their willful ignorance and total lack of compassion.
00:31:27.000And these people lack the courage to face their shame.
00:31:29.000And rage has taken over and consumed them.
00:31:33.000It is our job as America First Patriots.
00:31:37.000It is our job as freedom-loving Americans.
00:31:42.000It is our job as people who understand the fight between good versus evil to make them face their shame.
00:31:49.000And there is no better way to do that than by flooding the polls on Election Day and sending America first fighters to Congress so that we can take back the House and put an end to the Democrat Party's design of destruction and death in America.
00:33:01.000You see, this is happening in America.
00:33:03.000And it's really hard to believe that this is happening in our country.
00:33:07.000The Biden regime has royally twisted nearly everything so that not even new parents can afford to feed their children, regardless of their socioeconomic status.
00:33:15.000This isn't just something affecting people living in poverty, right?
00:33:18.000It doesn't matter how much money you have in America.
00:33:21.000You still can't get baby formula in this country right now.
00:33:25.000But this doesn't just affect our young.
00:33:27.000Our sick and our elderly are facing delays on life-saving dialysis treatment due to supply and staff shortages in medical clinics and hospitals.
00:33:35.000Our seniors are struggling to pay their bills and feed themselves on their fixed social security incomes each month while everything becomes more expensive, but their income remains the same.
00:33:45.000Families are going without vehicles due to a lack of car parts, and they even can't get used cars.
00:33:52.000We can't even get used cars here in America because they're unaffordable and unavailable because we have failed.
00:33:58.000We have failed as a country, and our elected officials have completely dropped the ball on bringing our manufacturing and our energy independence back to America.
00:34:08.000We must reopen the Keystone Pipeline and we must make it a priority.
00:34:21.000We must make it a priority to decouple the American economy from depending on hostile countries like China, which just unleashed a bioweapon on the entire world.
00:34:32.000When is China going to face punishment?
00:34:34.000When are we going to punish China and return American manufacturing and protect Americans, protect business owners, and protect every industry in this country from globalist communist forces like the Chinese Communist Party?
00:34:50.000The list goes on and on, from plumber to garage doors, computer chips, potatoes.
00:34:55.000And I see Bill here, who makes my signs, right?
00:34:58.000If you ever need some political signs, be sure to go to South Lake QuickPrint.
00:35:12.000I have to order all my stuff ahead of time because you can't even get yard signs made on time in this country because of supply chain issues.
00:35:31.000The Democrats rely on dumbing down and the politicization of science and the rapid increase in power of government in order to maintain their control over the American people.
00:35:40.000We've watched this in horror during the COVID-19 pandemic, which led to record-high unemployment, the destruction of millions of American small businesses, mass corporate welfare, and the shredding of our rights through unconstitutional mandates and medical tyranny.
00:35:55.000Americans would have been faster to open their eyes to the truth of this scandemic had it not been for the combination of the drumbeat of false narratives from the mainstream media and the massive coordinated censorship on anything truthful related to COVID and vaccines by the big tech mafia.
00:36:17.000Big tech tyranny and big tech election interference truly is the greatest threat to Americans and our sovereignty We saw this firsthand in the aftermath of the stolen 2020 election when it became evident to everyone around the world that five billionaires in Silicon Valley are now more powerful than any elected body in our country.
00:36:36.000Five billionaires in Silicon Valley are funneling hundreds of millions of dollars to corrupt supervisors of elections offices, including Alan Hayes in Lake County, who needs to be removed.
00:36:52.000And the Republicans are letting them get away with it.
00:36:57.000Where the hell is the Republican Party?
00:37:02.000The pandemic in the 2020 election was the test run for big tech to prove just how quickly they could react to shut down debate on any issue to stop the flow of information and literally put a muzzle or a mask over anyone who dares to speak the truth.
00:37:25.000With younger Americans now dropping dead and falling ill to myochyroiditis, blood clots caused by experimental vaccines that have been proven to not even work when it comes to preventing the spread of COVID-19.
00:37:43.000You see, prior to running for office, many of you knew me as one of the first people to take on big tech censorship with my activism, my undercover journalism with Project Veritas and James O'Keefe, my Stop the Bias campaign, and my litigation against the big tech mafia.
00:37:59.000And I believe now more than ever it's important that we send free speech absolutist fighters to Congress, where I will fight to protect the integrity of our elections and the sanctity of the First Amendment, which is what makes America the land of the free.
00:38:18.000We must protect free speech, free and fair elections, and the free market, all of which is being destroyed by big tech and the cancer known as cancel culture.
00:38:25.000The fight for free speech goes beyond social media censorship.
00:38:29.000And by the way, big tech has combined forces with the big banks and big pharma to silence, censor, and debank Americans.
00:38:39.000And we ought to face this shame because it is shameful that here in America where we have heroes among us, people like General Michael Flynn, who risked his life fighting for our country, are being shut down by companies like Twitter and Facebook and Chase Bank.
00:38:54.000He was willing to give his life for our right for free speech.
00:38:59.000The fallen heroes who we will be remembering on Memorial Day on Monday, they paid the ultimate sacrifice for our free speech.
00:39:08.000And these big tech social media companies that have sold out to Islamic jihadists, okay, and Chinese communists, they have completely defiled and disrespected every American hero who gave their life in this country to fight for free speech.
00:39:25.000I will truly be big tech's worst nightmare in Congress.
00:39:29.000I will work to repeal Section 230, and I will fight to make political affiliation a protected class so that no American is ever again silenced for their nonviolent political views and speech.
00:39:44.000The left thinks that they have the right to shut down any speech that they don't agree with.
00:39:52.000Proponents of cancel culture clearly never bothered to read any Supreme Court ruling on free speech, which is not only protected under the First Amendment, but in the words of Chief Justice Roberts, based on the principle that debate on public issues should be uninhibited, robust, and wide open.
00:40:08.000There is no such thing as hate speech.
00:40:10.000And modern-day accusations of hate speech and modern-day accusations of things like white supremacy, domestic terrorism, racism, right?
00:40:17.000It's just what they call people who they think pose a threat to their radical leftist agenda.
00:40:27.000This is why, over the last two years, I've been working with an amazing legal team, former Congressman Bob Barr and Constitutional Attorney John Pierce, who is currently representing 28 January 6th Patriots.
00:40:39.000And yes, I said patriots, because they are patriots, and they are political prisoners, and we need to fight for them.
00:40:46.000I'm about to say that we recently filed a $10 billion Reco case against the big tech social media companies.
00:40:57.000And just like I'm going to win my primary on August 23rd when I unsee do nothing Dan Webster in the Florida Republican primary, I will win my lawsuit when I have my day in court with Mark Zuckerberg and Jack Dorsey.
00:41:14.000In the conclusion of my speech, you know, I spoke earlier about President Washington's farewell address, and I want to end on that.
00:41:22.000Washington's third warning is his most important, but it's one everyone in politics today has forgotten.
00:41:28.000Foreign influence and corruption is everywhere in American politics.
00:41:31.000Sometimes they take the form of deceptions and illusions, such as the Democrats' obsession with the Russia collusion hoax.
00:41:37.000Other times, the corruption is very real.
00:41:42.000However, as Americans continue to suffer in an age with a 40-year record high inflation, a recession around the corner, coupled with stagflation, unaffordable gas prices, and skyrocketing food prices, Republicans, including Dan Webster, seem more concerned with spending billions of dollars in U.S. taxpayer to fund the Ukrainians and other senseless foreign wars that we have no business being in than taking care of our own people here.
00:42:08.000You see, to the everyday American, the current state of affairs is asinine and it's totally illogical.
00:42:13.000Everyday people see that solutions to these problems are possible, but most of our elected officials don't seem any bit interested in actually solving our problems.
00:42:23.000And it really makes you wonder if it's all by design, if it's all being done intentionally.
00:42:27.000And if you pay close attention, you'll likely agree with me that it is all by design, a design of destruction.
00:42:35.000Washington believed that America should keep its distance from internecine quarrels in European countries.
00:42:40.000He would have been horrified to see America a few centuries later appointing itself the world police and wading into every Middle Eastern and European country and conflict, sacrificing our children and our taxpayer money in endless and endlessly expensive foreign wars.
00:42:54.000I truly do believe that our founding fathers, especially George Washington, is rolling over in his grave today, knowing that under Joe Biden's failed administration, over $7 billion in military equipment was left behind in Afghanistan after a disastrous pollout that left 13 of America's finest heroes dead.
00:43:12.000And just last week, your own America last congressman, Daniel Webster, voted to send $40 billion.
00:43:17.000And I know I keep on repeating that, but you need to remember that when you go to the polls.
00:43:39.000It appears that Daniel Webster is exactly the type of ambitious and unprincipled swindler politician who George Washington warned us about in his farewell address when he described politicians who benefit from fealty to party over people.
00:43:52.000Should it surprise us that these warnings have been completely ignored by our elected representatives?
00:43:58.000It's not as though these texts are lost on history.
00:44:02.000The first national politician in a century to achieve great success without paying lip service to either party was Donald Trump.
00:44:08.000And I have taken great inspiration from our president.
00:44:11.000When I decided to run for office, it wasn't out of fealty to the Republican Party, although I'm grateful to many in that party for their assistance and their support.
00:44:19.000It was because I see things desperately wrong with our country, our party, and our current broken political system that I believe that I can fix.
00:44:28.000I know that I can fix, but I need your help.
00:44:32.000I need you to show up and vote for me on August 23rd.
00:44:35.000I'm asking for your vote so that I can get to Washington and fight for you, so that I can be your voice, so that I can fight to save America from communism.
00:44:46.000We need less career politicians in Washington and more public servants.
00:44:50.000America is on life support, and it's time for the American people and our elected representatives to stop being bystanders and start being activists.
00:45:01.000I believe that we need a lot more of this kind of brave and selflessness courage that President Donald Trump has shown if we are truly to transcend the self-imposed boundaries of partisan rancor and again focus on our efforts of serving the people.
00:45:15.000For example, we can look to George Washington.
00:45:18.000George Washington didn't have to step aside in 1796.
00:45:22.000He didn't have to write that farewell address at all.
00:45:24.000But he chose to establish that precedent, later enshrined in the 22nd Amendment, that presidents would only serve two terms because he feared otherwise the presidency might become regarded as a lifetime appointment, more like a monarchy or the papacy, or, God forbid I say, career politician.
00:45:44.000It was a selfless decision made for the good of the country and somewhat contrary to his own interests.
00:45:49.000It is hard to imagine any elected politician making that same choice today.
00:45:53.000A hint of how far our politicians have fallen since those early days of the creation of our great republic.
00:46:00.000To fix our politics and to save America from communism, we need to start electing people motivated by sincere, urgent, and long-standing conviction.
00:46:10.000In our current political climate where the Democrat Party is actively communist and working to fundamentally transform America in the way that Barack Hussein Obama promised he would, Dan Webster and everyone who encounters him knows deep down that he is no longer fit to serve.
00:46:25.000And he is no longer up for the fight that is required from a representative today.
00:46:30.000We no longer have traditional election cycles in America.
00:46:33.000We no longer have bipartisan cooperation in Washington.
00:46:37.000And we no longer have a free press to hold power accountable.
00:46:41.000The role of a representative has transcended the role of simply showing up to vote, which Dan Webster has also failed to do as he missed 15% of the votes alone in 2021.
00:46:53.000True America first fighting statesmen and women are out there.
00:47:00.000You have to ignore the naysayers and you have to take on their occasional political inexperience.
00:47:05.000I would say I have a lot of political experience, you know, but you have to give other candidates, first-time candidates, a chance.
00:47:11.000You have to give these everyday ordinary Americans who want to take their country back a chance and summon enough courage to vote for them on election day, despite what the fake news media and the political establishment has to say about them.
00:47:23.000I aspire to be just such a stateswoman representative, driven by my commitment to constitutional principles and not a self-serving dependence on a political party.
00:47:35.000With less than 90 days to go until the Florida Republican primary, I really do hope and I pray that the voters in Florida's 11th district and across America will also pause and stop to read George Washington's words and his farewell address before they cast their votes in the primary.
00:47:50.000And your primary is scheduled for August 23rd.
00:47:54.000I take great inspiration from our founding fathers and our United States Constitution.
00:47:59.000Electing strong, constitutionally conservative America first fighters who have fealty to the people over the party is the only way that our government will truly remain of the people, by the people, and for the people.
00:48:15.000I've never considered myself to be a politician.
00:48:31.000And you have my commitment that I will always place you and the interests of the American people over the interests of any political party, including the Republican Party establishment.
00:48:48.000And I'll close by saying that it would truly be my absolute honor to serve you in Congress.
