A gunman has been arrested in connection with an assassination attempt on President Trump at his golf course in West Palm Beach, Florida. This is the second attempt on the President in 8 weeks, and the first time a president or presidential candidate has been targeted within a short period of time since Gerald Ford in 1974. The gunman was armed with an AK-47, a scope, and a camera, and was ready to film the former president of the United States, but no shots were fired by Secret Service agents who saw him approaching the golf course from behind a fence. The suspect has been taken into custody and is facing criminal charges, but it's not clear if he fired a single shot at President Trump or if he was shot at multiple times by other members of the Secret Service, who were in the area at the time of the incident, or whether he was simply waiting for the right moment to act on his plan to shoot at the president, who was on a golf course with a golf cart and a golf club in the middle of the fairway.

00:01:35.000He then proceeded to flee, and then a nearby bystander saw the license plate of the person, gave it to the cops, and this person was picked up by the police about 20 minutes later after fleeing the premises.
00:01:48.000According to the Wall Street Journal, At least one agent, who was one or two holes ahead of Trump
00:01:52.000on the course, fired after spotting the man pointing a rifle through a fence, law
00:02:29.000And depriving them of that is maybe the least I can do.
00:02:32.000It's like the only thing I can do as a member of the media not to increase the sort of publicity around people who would do something evil like try to shoot the former president of the United States.
00:02:43.000The would-be alleged shooter was detained and is facing criminal charges.
00:02:46.000Investigators said they didn't know if the gunman himself fired a shot during the encounter.
00:02:50.000Again, authorities found an AK-style rifle with a scope, two backpacks, and a GoPro portable camera.
00:02:56.000He was about 400 yards away from the former president of the United States.
00:03:01.000So the police pointed out that the man, in fact, was there for an assassination attempt.
00:03:06.000The first breaking news, it was unclear whether he was there.
00:03:10.000I don't know what else he would be there for.
00:03:11.000You don't normally just go to a golf course with a gun and point it through the fence.
00:03:14.000But here were the police yesterday announcing that the man arrested was there to assassinate.
00:03:25.000That was called in by the Secret Service.
00:03:27.000Because we're in constant contact with them all the time, we were notified of that and we had units here that immediately sealed off the area.
00:03:37.000In the bushes where this guy was is an AK-47 style rifle with a scope.
00:03:45.000Two backpacks, which were hung on the fence, that had a ceramic tile in them, and a GoPro, which he was going to take pictures of.
00:03:52.000Again, the backpacks with the ceramic tile were presumably to provide some sort of false cover for him, in case there would be an incoming shot from Secret Service, because ceramic is very often used as sort of a cheap substitute, for example, for Kevlar.
00:04:04.000The Secret Service representative revealed that the assassin was, in fact, quite close to the President.
00:04:09.000If you have a rifle with a scope on it, 400 yards is not all that far.
00:04:22.000Because the bubble moves through the golf course, so our agents will get there first, clear it.
00:04:30.000He noticed that the rifle was pointed out, our agents engaged.
00:04:35.000We are not sure right now if the individual was able to take a shot at our agents, but for sure our agents were able to engage.
00:04:44.000Sheriff Bradshaw did point out that Trump does not have full perimeter protection.
00:04:48.000So full perimeter protection is typically given to the sitting president of the United States, apparently, but not to, presumably, the leading Republican nominee for the president of the United States or the former president.
00:04:59.000So yeah, Secret Service were sort of on him bodily, but not necessarily locking down all generalized areas.
00:05:05.000And again, part of the problem here in terms of security is that you would have to have either Congress itself
00:05:10.000shut off, which is a major thoroughfare, which is unlikely, or much more likely, you should have had
00:05:15.000Secret Service agents outside the fence when the president was in fact going around the golf course.
00:05:20.000That would have been the obvious solution here, but says Rick Bradshaw,
00:05:23.000they actually didn't have the staff available.
00:05:25.000If he was, we would have had this entire golf course around him.
00:05:27.000the fence, which is where this person set up for the shot.
00:05:57.000The Secret Service did exactly what they should have done.
00:06:00.000They provided exactly what the protection should have been, and their agent did a fantastic job.
00:06:05.000Well, it seems about time that the Secret Service be given full authority and staffing power to protect the former President of the United States, who again has now been subjected to two assassination attempts in the space of eight weeks.
00:06:18.000We'll get back to more on the alleged assassination attempt in a moment.

00:07:23.000According to the New York Times, the Secret Service significantly bolstered Trump's protective detail after coming under intense criticism following an attempt on his life in Butler on July 13th.
00:07:32.000That beefed up detail, which includes additional agents and enhanced on-the-ground intelligence, might have played a role in the outcome this weekend, according to current and former officials, but the fact that a gunman was able to get a semi-automatic rifle with a telescopic sight so close to the former president underscored how many urgent problems exposed in Butler remain unresolved and how difficult it is for the Secret Service to respond to an unpredictable and increasingly violent political environment.
00:07:53.000Except for, this is not super tough stuff.
00:07:56.000I feel like I, anyone, could have possibly foreseen that if you have the President of the United States, former President of the United States, and again, right now, a 50-50 shot to be the next President of the United States, the most controversial person in modern American history.
00:08:09.000Playing golf at a club that he owns, which he does fairly regularly, right?
00:08:13.000He has several golf courses in this area and he plays them fairly regularly.
00:08:16.000It seems like well within the possible purview of the Secret Service, you know, actually secure a fence that is not all that far away from the golf course.
00:08:25.000Like, what would happen if the Secret Service had missed this guy hiding behind the bushes?
00:08:29.000Like, let's say this guy had not been a complete moron, and instead of hiding behind a couple of backpacks at the exterior of this fence, there had been some sort of obstruction that he was actually hiding behind, so they couldn't actually see him from inside the golf course.
00:08:43.000And then he had waited until President Trump had moved up a hole or two.
00:08:46.000He would have been right next to President Trump.
00:08:51.000I mean, as it turns out, the shooter is pretty clearly a left-wing-oriented nutjob.
00:08:57.000This is a person who clearly has some sort of mental issues from his record, also happens to be politically oriented to the left, as we'll get to in just one moment.
00:09:08.000According to the New York Times, the biggest issues in Trump's protection seem to be involving securing the protective perimeter of a targeted site, even one they know as well as Trump's properties.
00:09:16.000The would-be shooter positioned himself in the bushes on the perimeter of the former president's golf club in West Palm Beach.
00:09:21.000A Secret Service agent was one hole ahead of Trump on the course and spotted the barrel of a gun, prompting agents to open fire on the man.
00:09:28.000Again, right now, Joe Biden, the White House, need to authorize full Secret Service protective detail for the former President of the United States.
00:09:38.000Clearly and obviously, this should have been done after Butler.
00:09:41.000Maybe that's the head of the Secret Service who's at fault, again.
00:09:44.000Or, perhaps, the staffing levels that are being provided by the White House are not sufficient to meet the need when it comes to President Trump, who, again, has been targeted by everything up to and including bullets at this point.
00:09:57.000President Trump issued a statement And by the way, politically, his message here should be, no bullet is going to stop the change.
00:10:34.000That's the thing he should be saying clearly, openly, and honestly.
00:10:38.000Joe Biden and Kamala Harris put out a statement in which they said they're relieved to know that Donald Trump is safe.
00:10:44.000Apparently, according to the White House, the President and Vice President have been briefed about the security incident at the Trump International Golf Course where former President Trump was golfing.
00:11:29.000I know my dad and love my dad, but that's nothing like him.
00:11:33.000Well, I mean, that doesn't seem to be the case because we now have some information about his father's history.
00:11:39.000His father's history is pretty checkered.
00:11:43.000Politically, again, this is a person of the left he had exclusively donated, according to the New York Post, to Democrats since 2019.
00:11:52.000He had apparently tweeted out something about how he wanted like a Vivek Ramaswamy, Nikki Haley ticket at one point during the last presidential cycle, during the primaries.
00:12:01.000Which is, again, because this person is obviously pretty crazy and pretty nuts.
00:12:07.000With that said, this person is left-wing oriented, without a doubt.
00:12:12.000He claimed in other social media posts that he had supported Trump in his first presidential campaign in 2016, but then said that he was greatly disappointed.
00:12:20.000However, Apparently, he also backed Tulsi Gabbard during the 2020 Democratic primary, and then he posted in favor of Vivek Ramaswamy, so all over the place.
00:12:28.000But, overall, this is a person of the left.
00:12:31.000Not only is he a person of the left, this person has spent an inordinate amount of time talking publicly about Ukraine.
00:12:37.000So, for example, back in 2013, he was actually directly quoted by the New York Times In a piece about how foreigners trying to fight in Ukraine, some of them were lying, there's a piece titled, Stolen Valor, the U.S.
00:12:52.000volunteers in Ukraine who lie, waste, and bicker.
00:12:56.000And the would-be shooter is quoted about something called the Legion.
00:13:02.000The Legion is a foreign body that was created in order to allow foreigners to fight in Ukraine.
00:13:10.000It says, quote, with Legion growth stalling, the shooter, a former construction worker from Greensboro, North Carolina, is seeking recruits from among Afghan soldiers who fled the Taliban.
00:13:18.000The shooter, who spent several months in Ukraine last year, said he planned to move them, in some cases illegally, from Pakistan and Iran to Ukraine.
00:13:24.000He said dozens had expressed interest.
00:13:27.000He said, we can probably purchase some passports through Pakistan since it's such a corrupt country.
00:13:31.000And again, this is him talking to the New York Times.
00:13:34.000We'll get to more coverage of the alleged attempted assassination of President Trump
00:13:37.000momentarily. First, we are now approaching the one-year anniversary of the October 7th
00:13:40.000terrorist attacks in Israel. It was a day that shook Western civilization to its core.
00:13:44.000It's a stark reminder of the evil that exists in the world and the importance of standing with our
00:13:48.000allies. Well, now the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews is giving us a chance
00:13:52.000to do just that with their Flags of Fellowship initiative.
00:13:55.000It's an opportunity for us all to remember the victims, honor the heroes, pray for those
00:13:58.000still held hostage, and highlight the unwavering support of Christians for Israel and the Jewish
00:14:02.000people. On October 6th, thousands of Americans will be planting flags across the country to
00:14:08.000It's a powerful visual reminder we haven't forgotten and we won't forget.
00:14:11.000Your generous donation today will not only provide a flag symbolizing your support in church yards across America, it will also support the Fellowship's ongoing emergency efforts in the Holy Land.
00:16:03.000This is a storybook, you know, any movie we ever watch, this is definitely evil against good.
00:16:09.000Okay, so, again, this person very passionate about Ukraine, obviously, also pretty obviously pretty crazy, and Unfortunately, his son is wrong.
00:16:19.000This person does have a fairly checkered criminal past.
00:16:22.000Quote, this news week, the suspect has reportedly been arrested eight times, mostly for minor offenses.
00:16:27.000He was actually convicted in 2002 of possessing a weapon of mass destruction.
00:16:32.000That was a fully automatic machine gun.
00:16:34.000On December 22, a story by News & Record in Greensboro, North Carolina, said that a man with the same name was arrested after a three-hour standoff with police.
00:16:43.000And was charged with carrying a concealed weapon and possessing a weapon of mass destruction referring to a fully automatic machine gun.
00:16:50.000So, again, all of this is indicative of a person who was unhinged, was unhinged on the left, particularly with regard to Ukraine.
00:17:01.000In March 2022, he wrote, quote, I am willing to fly to Krakow and go to the border of Ukraine to volunteer and fight and die.
00:17:28.000So, once more, many things can be true.
00:17:32.000One, of late, the people who have attempted to assassinate presidents of the United States Two, this person was left-wing oriented on issues like Ukraine and had been interviewed by the mainstream media, by the legacy media, on multiple occasions with regard to that.
00:17:47.000And three, the reality is that in an extraordinarily polarized political environment, when a presidential candidate is the victim of two separate attempted assassinations, When that happens, there should be some questions raised about the temperature of our rhetoric.
00:18:02.000Now again, the only person who's guilty of attempting to kill the former president of the United States and current frontrunner for the White House, the only person who is guilty of that thing is the attempted assassin, obviously.
00:18:13.000However, when you raise the temperature on the political rhetoric in a country, What you are doing is you are turning up the heat beneath a pot of boiling water.
00:18:23.000And eventually, it starts to boil over.
00:18:26.000This is not unique to the United States.
00:18:28.000You see this in pretty much every democracy.
00:18:30.000As you increase the temperature of the political rhetoric, violence becomes a byproduct of that.
00:18:36.000We've been entering an increasingly violent era that is particularly true since Black Lives Matter summer, in which widespread political violence was greenlit by the legacy media.
00:18:45.000We have now seen two separate assassination attempts against President Trump.
00:18:48.000I do not think that that is a massive coincidence.
00:18:51.000You have these free radicals who are roaming around.
00:18:54.000They can find each other on social media and find support.
00:18:56.000And not only that, they're being told day in and day out that Donald Trump is a deep and abiding threat to the Republic.
00:19:04.000Again, there is a difference between saying that you don't like Donald Trump's policies or you think that Donald Trump's policies are bad for the country.
00:19:09.000It is another thing to say, as the left has for years at this point, that Donald Trump as President of the United States would end elections in the United States, for example.
00:19:16.000That Donald Trump and his supporters are a threat to the very social fabric of the United States.
00:19:23.000The same day that this assassin went out and attempted to shoot Donald Trump, again, The Harris Walls campaign put out an ad by Bernie Sanders in which he said all of these things.
00:19:34.000And we are two months out from the last attempt at assassination, when there was just a moment of respite, when people said, hey, wait a second, maybe we ought to lower the temperature just a little bit.
00:19:45.000If you recall, President Joe Biden was barely alive at that point.
00:19:48.000He made a speech from the Oval Office talking about bringing down the rhetoric.
00:19:51.000And then within 24 hours, he was out there again suggesting that Donald Trump was a deep and abiding threat to the very Republic of the United States.
00:19:58.000Again, this is an ad that Bernie Sanders put out the same day somebody tried to shoot Donald Trump again.
00:20:27.000He is, among many other characteristics, a pathological liar.
00:20:32.000We together must do everything in our power to defeat Trump and his MAGA allies this November and elect Vice President Harris and Governor Walz as our next president and vice president.
00:20:44.000The bottom line is that we cannot win this election without a strong grassroots movement.
00:20:49.000He goes on, but extraordinarily dangerous, going to destroy America.
00:20:53.000These are the kinds of terms the left routinely uses about Donald Trump.
00:23:00.000In fact, the one thing they will say over and over is that Donald Trump needs to turn down the rhetoric.
00:23:04.000So, Donald Trump is apparently the font head of all evil rhetoric and overstatement in the universe.
00:23:10.000They themselves are perfectly innocent.
00:23:13.000Apparently the great tragedy of somebody allegedly attempting to shoot Donald Trump again for the second time in two months, the great tragedy is that Donald Trump might say things.
00:23:20.000That's really the thing we ought to worry about.
00:23:21.000Here's MSNBC anchor Alex Swit, wondering if Trump should tone down the rhetoric.
00:23:27.000We do not know, again, the source of any gunshot or gunshots.
00:23:31.000We don't know who's responsible for this.
00:23:34.000The whole thing has yet to be 100% confirmed from start to finish how this all played out.
00:23:40.000But do you expect to hear anything from the Trump campaign about toning down the rhetoric, toning down the violence, or would that be atypical of the former president?
00:23:51.000Again, for the media, the problem is always Trump.
00:23:54.000Someone tries to allegedly shoot Trump, and the problem is Trump.
00:25:08.000Even when someone tries to shoot Donald Trump, allegedly, they are at fault.
00:25:12.000And by the way, just in case you thought that those moderators in the last presidential debate weren't unbiased, here is ABC's Lindsay Davis, who is anchoring her first Sunday edition of World News Tonight since the debate.
00:25:24.000She immediately moves from talking about the second Trump assassination attempt to talking about Trump's outsized rhetoric or Vance's outsized rhetoric.
00:25:33.000Tonight, breaking news as we come on the air.
00:25:35.000Shots fired at Donald Trump's golf club in Florida as a former president was nearby.
00:25:41.000The Secret Service opening fire after spotting a man with an assault-style rifle.
00:25:49.000The details just coming in from West Palm Beach.
00:25:51.000The Secret Service treating this as a threat against the former president.
00:25:55.000Agents have detained a suspect and have recovered a weapon.
00:25:58.000This comes two months after the former president survived an assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania.
00:26:03.000Pierre Thomas and Mary Alice Parks lead tonight's coverage.
00:26:06.000Also tonight, Springfield, Ohio on edge.
00:26:09.000Local schools are being threatened with violence and a college shuts down activities after threats were made following the baseless rumors that Haitian immigrants have been eating pets.
00:26:33.000It's the Republicans pouncing that's the problem.
00:26:36.000I really, you know, I don't care what you feel about him or Harris.
00:26:41.000I mean, this is the expectation that he will be safe.
00:26:44.000And the reason why this is, you know, in some ways you said how close the election is.
00:26:51.000The problem is this is a safety issue that is being thrown into a very intense political environment in which the very fact of an assassination, a constitutional moment, because it could have impacted voters, will be used for political purposes.
00:27:10.000And that to me is just exceptionally unfortunate because Whatever your beliefs are, we do deserve to have campaigns where violence isn't being used as either a sword or a shield.
00:27:31.000David Frum, another sort of former never-Trump Republican who's turned into a full-scale Democrat in the style of the bulwark, for example.
00:27:38.000David Frum, who writes for The Atlantic, he tweeted, quote, Trump and his running mate have spent the past week successfully inciting violence in Springfield, Ohio.
00:27:46.000Today, they want to present themselves as near victims of violence, in this case of violence completely unrelated to themselves and at a very safe distance from themselves.
00:27:56.000Like, is 400 yards a very safe distance from Donald Trump?
00:28:00.000Because I feel like that is not, in fact, the case.
00:28:02.000And again, the sword only works one way.
00:28:05.000For the left, if something bad happens to a left-winger, it is because of right-wing rhetoric, whether or not it's because of right-wing rhetoric.
00:28:12.000When a mass shooter hits Gabby Giffords in the head, Gabby Giffords in the head, and it turns out it has nothing to do with Sarah Palin, it's still Sarah Palin's fault.
00:28:22.000When somebody who is tangentially interested in Trumpian politics does anything remotely violence related, then of course it accrues directly to Donald Trump's demerit column.
00:28:33.000But if twice in two months somebody tries to shoot Trump in the head, allegedly, if that happens twice in two months, then apparently the left has no responsibility for that whatsoever.
00:28:47.000So long as you say the right things, so long as you are politically oriented correctly, if you are of the left, you can say whatever you want and nothing will ever touch you.
00:28:56.000There will never ever be any responsibility for even increasing the temperature.
00:29:26.000Balance of nature fits right into my day-to-day.
00:29:28.000Imagine trying to eat 31 different fruits and veggies every day.
00:29:31.000It sounds miserable and time-consuming.
00:29:33.000With balance of nature, fruits and veggies, there's never been a more convenient dietary supplement to ensure you get a wide variety of fruits and veggies every day.
00:29:39.000Balance of nature takes fruits and veggies.
00:29:41.000They freeze-dry them, they turn them into a powder, and then they put them into a capsule.
00:29:43.000You take your fruit and veggie capsules every day, and then your body knows precisely what to do with them.
00:29:48.000It's kosher, which means I can put it into the protein smoothie that I take every single morning.

00:30:37.000Now, everyone took that as sort of lighthearted, which it was.
00:30:40.000It is worth noting at this point that if Joe Biden really thought about Donald Trump, what he says he believes about Donald Trump, he would never have put on a MAGA hat.
00:30:48.000If Donald Trump really was the sort of Nazi threat to the Republic that Joe Biden and the Democratic Party have made him out to be, nothing in the world could get him to put on the MAGA hat.
00:30:57.000It'd be the equivalent of putting on a Nazi hat or a Hamas hat or a Hezbollah hat.
00:31:19.000They just say it over and over and over for political, cynical reasons.
00:31:23.000Meanwhile, the state of the race remains incredibly close.
00:31:26.000There's a poll out from Iowa that shows Donald Trump's Iowa lead shrinking significantly.
00:31:31.000The Seltzer poll, which is usually the best on poll in America, says that Donald Trump's Iowa lead has shrunk from 18 points over Joe Biden in late spring, down to about four points in Iowa.
00:31:44.000Again, that demonstrates some renewed momentum, obviously, for Kamala Harris.
00:31:48.000With all of that said, the race remains insanely close.
00:31:53.000Kamala Harris is within margin of error in seven different states.
00:31:56.000Arizona, Nevada, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Georgia, and North Carolina.
00:32:01.000Nate Silver, at this point, is still suggesting that Donald Trump is the favorite in the election, despite the fact that Kamala Harris is ahead a little bit in the national polling.
00:32:12.000There's been movement toward her, but that movement toward her has not overcome the structural imbalances in the Electoral College.
00:32:19.000According to Nate Silver right now, if you had to take a bet, the electoral college probability for Trump is about 60% to about 40% for Harris, which means it is effectively a toss-up election.
00:32:29.000We have yet to see any new state polling, really, since the debate, so we don't know the impact of the debate.
00:32:34.000I would suggest that this race is stagnant, that everybody is basically locked in at this point.
00:32:40.000Which means, as I've said before, if Donald Trump can be meticulous in his attacks on Kamala Harris, then he will win.
00:32:48.000Kamala Harris is an undefined quantity.
00:32:49.000That debate did not define her better.
00:32:52.000It defined President Trump better, but everybody already had a very clear picture of Donald Trump.
00:32:56.000It marginally made Trump look worse than people already think he is.
00:33:00.000That's pretty much all that happened with Trump.
00:33:02.000Trump was already a crisp photo, and he got a little crisper.
00:33:06.000And then, during that debate, Kamala Harris was a vague blob of an image, and she's still a vague blob of an image, and nobody knows what the hell she believes or what she thinks.
00:33:14.000Which is why the attempt to vibe her all the way to the White House will fail so long as the Trump campaign can actually move to define her.
00:33:22.000And all the attempts to do otherwise, all the attempts to sort of gloss over the top with the vibes and the feelings and the brat and all that, I don't think that that is destined to succeed.
00:33:30.000That's not going to stop the media from doing their damnedest to try.
00:33:33.000Brian Stelter, Mr. Potato Head, he was back on CNN after losing his job over there, saying that the most important things about Kamala Harris are the images surrounding her.
00:34:05.000I know that the Washington Post is running entire style section articles about dressing Kamala Harris.
00:34:11.000Harris seized the moment Saturday to speak to black lawmakers at a Congressional Black Caucus Foundation event, and she used her dress to help her do it.
00:34:55.000I want the Republicans to retain the House.
00:34:58.000I want them to increase their share of the Senate to a solid majority.
00:35:02.000Donald Trump needs to run a meticulous campaign.
00:35:05.000Yes, he is facing entrenched obstacles worse than any president of my lifetime.
00:35:09.000Yes, the media hate him more than they've ever hated anybody ever before.
00:35:12.000They hated George W. Bush an awful lot, but they hate Trump even more.
00:35:16.000Yes, he is facing systemic obstacles in a wide variety of places, ranging from state laws in some of the swing states to the obviously media Democrat complex.
00:35:27.000With that said, he is still running neck and neck with a horrifically bad candidate.
00:35:32.000And Kamala Harris proves it every time she goes out on the campaign trail.
00:35:35.000This is why it was such a frustration that Donald Trump blew the opportunity in the debate to actually hold her accountable, instead getting distracted with various rabbit holes that he wished to run down about his own tariff plans or about his crowd size.
00:35:47.000In just one second, I'm going to bring you Kamala Harris uncut.
00:36:09.000We achieved this with just 1,500 theaters, while the elite studio releases ahead of us are playing in two to three times as many locations.
00:36:16.000Here's something those major studios don't have.
00:36:18.000A 99% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes with over a thousand reviews.
00:36:21.000Plus, Amiracist is already verified hot.
00:36:24.000Now we need to make week two even bigger.
00:36:42.000I'm getting notes everywhere from Florida all the way over to like Marin County of packed theaters going to see Matt Walsh's brand new film, one of the hottest films in the country, Am I Racist?
00:36:51.000Thank you to everybody who joined us for opening weekend.
00:36:53.000We truly couldn't do any of this without your support.
00:37:12.000The media are preferring to focus on what dress she wore when she spoke to the Congressional Black Caucus or something.
00:37:17.000They're preferring to focus on her crowd sizes or Taylor Swift or whatever.
00:37:21.000It is an obligation, a moral obligation for the Trump bans campaign to just play clips of Kamala Harris over and over and over.
00:37:28.000Over the weekend, she had what ought to have been the interview of the year, like leading the news on every network because she has only done two interviews.
00:37:36.000Donald Trump has survived more assassination attempts this year than Kamala Harris has done solo interviews since becoming the nominee.
00:37:56.000It happened over the weekend, and it was awful.
00:37:59.000Apparently, she did this interview with ABC 6 Local, and she answered a grand total of five questions, which is really exciting stuff.
00:38:09.000So this interview did not go well for Kamala Harris.
00:38:12.000Again, she went to ABC again because ABC are like her very, very best friends.
00:38:16.000One of the things that we actually found out over the weekend is that ABC News anchor Lindsay Davis, who is one of the moderators in the debate, of course, She admitted in a post-debate interview with the LA Times that she wanted to address concerns Trump's statements could be allowed to, quote, hang there unchallenged by his opponent or the moderators.
00:38:32.000And so she was preparing to fact-check Trump, but didn't prepare to fact-check, apparently, by omission, anything about Kamala Harris, which is why Kamala Harris was never fact-checked.
00:38:41.000Apparently, she told the LA Times people were concerned that statements were just allowed to hang and not be disputed by the candidate Biden at the time or the moderators in the first debate.
00:38:50.000So, she prepped to fact-check Trump, but not fact-check him, of course.
00:38:54.000So, Kamala went back to the well, she sat down with ABC6 Action News, a local affiliate of ABC News, and she answered a grand total of five questions from Action News 6 ABC anchor Brian Taft.
00:39:08.000It began with him asking what she would specifically do to bring down prices as President of the United States.
00:39:13.000And here was her horrifyingly bad answer.
00:39:27.000It's one of the things that is driving everyone nuts who watches politics, even Sort of by way of fun, even if you are just tangentially associated with politics, if you've seen a tape of Kamala Harris in the past six years, she's awful at this.
00:39:44.000When we talk about bringing down prices and making life more affordable for people, what are one or two specific things you have in mind for that?
00:40:02.000She was able to finally save up enough money to buy our first house when I was a teenager.
00:40:09.000I grew up in a community of hard-working people.
00:40:12.000Construction workers and nurses and teachers.
00:40:15.000I try to explain to some people who may not have had the same experience, but a lot of people will relate to this.
00:40:23.000I grew up in a neighborhood of folks who were very proud of their lawn.
00:40:28.000When I talk about building an opportunity economy, it is very much with the mind of Investing in the ambitions and aspirations and the incredible work ethic of the American people, and creating opportunity for people, for example, to start a small business.
00:40:45.000So we build a square, just healthy, we build a square, it looks like a lawn, and then we build a triangle to support the middle class.
00:40:54.000Okay, you might have noticed that the actual question was, can you name some specific ways to bring down inflation?
00:40:58.000She's like, I was born back in the 1960s.
00:41:04.000And let me tell you, when God first created Adam and Eve in the garden, there were trees.
00:41:51.000You literally are a person who just said you grew up middle class to impoverished, according to you, despite being born to two Berkeley professors and growing up in Canada in an upper class neighborhood.
00:42:03.000And then you suggest the American dream is elusive.
00:42:06.000Well, you seem to be the very embodiment of the American dream, given you have no redeeming qualities and yet are the presidential nominee for the Democratic Party and possible current front runner.
00:43:03.000I offer a new generation of leadership.
00:43:06.000So, for example, thinking about developing and creating an opportunity economy where it's about Investing in areas that really need a lot of work.
00:43:19.000And maybe focusing on, again, the aspirations and the dreams, but also just recognizing that at this moment in time, some of the stuff we could take for granted years ago, we can't take for granted anymore.

00:45:44.000As a Trump supporter, I can tell you, I remain unconvinced.
00:45:48.000What do you understand his appeal to be and how do you speak to his voters or maybe people who just share his values but are open to something else?
00:45:57.000I, based on experience and a lived experience, I know.
00:46:40.000There's a reason Joe Biden was like, I'd rather run than her, because at least I have some brain cells.
00:46:45.000She's the emptiest vessel in the world.
00:46:47.000These are easy questions, simple, predictable, easy questions.
00:46:49.000She's blowing every single one of them, which means The Trump campaign needs to point that out over and over without being distracted by sillinesses.
00:47:00.000Kamala Harris isn't just incoherent, she's also a liar.
00:47:02.000You remember during the debate when she claimed that there were no American soldiers in active duty war zones, which is absolutely 100% untrue.
00:47:08.000Perhaps the funniest clip of the weekend came via members of the American military who I believe are stationed in Jordan.
00:47:14.000Here is their reaction to Kamala Harris telling this insane lie.
00:47:18.000Well, I'll tell you, I agreed with President Biden's decision to pull out of Afghanistan.
00:47:24.000Four presidents said they would, and Joe Biden did.
00:47:28.000And as a result, America's taxpayers are not paying the $300 million a day we were paying for that endless war.
00:47:35.000And as of today, there is not one member of the United States military who is in active duty in a combat zone in any war zone around the world the first time this century.
00:48:00.000Wes Moore, who's a sycophantic supporter of her campaign, he's a surrogate, he had to walk this one back on Face the Nation yesterday.
00:48:09.000Well, I think what the intent was, was that this is not counter to the convictions of the Trump administration, that somehow our world was safer under him or we had less people in conflict.
00:48:27.000But I think the really important thing to remember is that we do have people who are in harm's way every single day.
00:48:33.000We have soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines, Coast Guardsmen who every single day are out there with our flag on their shoulder and who are defending our freedoms and defending our values.
00:48:45.000Um, yeah, well, I mean, maybe she should have said that, as opposed to, you know, being a terrible liar.
00:48:50.000And the thing about the Harris-Walls campaign, it's not just empty, it's false.
00:48:56.000So, it turns out that her running mate, Tim Walls, who's a super-duper weirdo, I mean, I don't know how many times I have to point this out, the dude's a weirdo.
00:49:02.000Have you seen him come out at a rally?
00:49:04.000He looks like he just did a line in the back room.
00:49:07.000He comes out, he starts waving his arms like a nutjob, he's pointing to people who don't exist.
00:49:13.000Shouting and screaming and ranting and raving.
00:49:17.000His wife is the lady who's caught on tape during the Black Lives Matter riot saying that she left her windows open so she could smell burning tires because it made her feel better about her con- Like, she's- Okay, but she's also the worst substitute teacher you ever had.
00:49:34.000So, here she was rallying with her crazy husband.
00:49:37.000Even her husband's embarrassed by her.
00:49:38.000Honest, just watch Tim Walz in the background.
00:49:40.000Even he's like, honey, you gotta stop this.
00:49:43.000She's at the podium, and she starts talking about turning the page, but only by irritating the living crap out of everyone in a 300 mile radius.
00:49:51.000Wow, you would not want this lady in your homeroom.
00:49:53.000She showed up in your homeroom, you would dive out that glass window, shards following you.
00:50:16.000Alright, so I'm going to be watching you because when I see Wisconsin, and I'm watching National Land TV because it's a pretty important place and Minnesota will help you practice with this.
00:51:28.000I mean, I also hate her music and think that she's kind of awful, but I'm not running for president.
00:51:34.000And it seems to me that you should focus on the things.
00:51:35.000But in terms of the irritating people in this campaign, let me just point out to you that the presidential candidate on the Democratic side of the aisle is Kamala Harris and you know the meaning of the importance and when you think about the context and Doug Emhoff who honest to God of all the people in this campaign Doug Emhoff drives me the most crazy as a Jew who takes his religion pretty seriously Doug Emhoff makes me want to vomit non-stop non-stop you know he actually said over the weekend again that only by marrying Kamala Harris did he feel more safe in his Judaism
00:52:10.000You're in Los Angeles, my dude, in like the entertainment industry.
00:52:15.000Can I just point out secular Jews in the entertainment industry in Los Angeles?
00:53:53.000When you take a town of 60,000 people and just add on 20,000 migrants from Haiti, Because you want to staff up the local factories as though you couldn't find anybody anywhere else in America to do any of that.
00:54:05.000However, it seems to me a distraction to be talking about whether they're eating the dogs and eating the cats.
00:54:11.000Now remember that started off as kind of a originally mentioned by JD Vance because some of his constituents had mentioned to him reports like that.
00:54:21.000And then Donald Trump took that and ran with it during the debate and expanded it to not only eating the cats, but also the dogs and also apparently other household pets.
00:54:29.000And that, of course, became the living meme from the actual debate.
00:54:32.000There's a remix of the Trump eating the dogs, eating the cats song that absolutely slaps.
00:54:39.000However, it would be about time right now for the Trump campaign to focus in on, you know, the fact that Kamala Harris is an awful candidate who believes terrible things and won't make clear any of her positions.
00:54:49.000It seems like it should be about that.
00:54:50.000The media have one job and one job only, and that is to turn this campaign into a referendum on Catgate.
00:55:20.000There's one point during this interview where he calls her out for just sycophantically presenting answers to Kamala Harris during the only other interview that she's done during this entire campaign cycle.
00:55:32.000Would you like to ask me questions and then let me answer them, or would you like to debate me on these topics?
00:55:39.000I noticed that when you had Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, you gave them multiple choice answers to the questions that you asked, and you allowed them to answer the questions.
00:55:47.000I'm happy to be here to talk about policy, but if you're going to interrupt me every single time that I open my mouth, then why am I even doing this?
00:55:56.000So that happened to be a really, really good point, but she wasn't there to ask him questions and get answers.
00:56:24.000So instead of saying things that are wrong and actually causing the hospitals, the schools, the government buildings to be evacuated because of bomb threats because of the cats and dogs thing, why not actually be constructive in helping to better integrate them into the community Dana, first of all, let me just respond to a couple things that you said, but I want to start with something you said, which I think is frankly disgusting and is more appropriate for a democratic propagandist than it is for an American journalist.
00:56:53.000There is nothing that I have said that has led to threats against these hospitals.
00:56:58.000These hospitals, the bomb threats and so forth, It's disgusting.
00:57:03.000You just accused me of inciting violence against the community when all that I've done is surface the complaints of my constituents, people who are suffering because of Kamala Harris's policies.
00:57:15.000Are we not allowed to talk about these problems because some psychopaths are threatening violence?
00:57:21.000In the middle of this interview with Dana Bash, the media attempt to swivel away from Dana Bash having an awful interview with Kamala Harris and J.D.
00:57:27.000Vance calling her on it to focus on this clip.
00:57:31.000Vann says that his constituents have been complaining about the eating the cats thing, right?
00:57:37.000And that he has surfaced that and he has elevated that complaint as sort of the tip of the spear in order to put focus on the problems in Springfield, Ohio.
00:57:45.000The way that the media decided to interpret this is that J.D.
00:57:47.000Vance made up out of whole cloth the claims about people eating cats in Springfield, Ohio.
00:57:52.000That he made up a story in order to get attention.
00:57:57.000Vance said and it's pretty obvious from what he said that they're lying about what he said.
00:58:01.000I'm talking to my constituents and I'm hearing terrible things about what's going on in Springfield and Kamala Harris's open border policies have caused these problems.
00:58:10.000The American media totally ignored this stuff until Donald Trump and I started talking about cat memes.
00:58:16.000If I have to... But it wasn't just a meme.
00:58:18.000If we're going to create stories so that the American media actually pays attention to the suffering of the American people, then that's what I'm going to do, Dana, because you guys are completely letting Kamala Harris coast.
00:58:30.000I say that we're creating a story, meaning we're creating the American media focusing on it.
00:58:35.000I didn't create 20,000 illegal migrants coming into Springfield thanks to Kamala Harris's policies.
00:58:41.000Okay, so he's not saying that he made up the cat story.
00:58:44.000He's saying his constituents are telling him this thing.
00:58:46.000He's elevating their complaints, and then he's quote-unquote creating a story in the same way that the media create a story, meaning creates a narrative around a true story or a story that has been reported by his constituents.
00:58:56.000The media decide that they're going to run with this idea that he made up the cat story out of whole cloth, because what they want more than anything is to distract from the actual issues of the campaign.
00:59:04.000Here is Josh Shapiro, the person who was not picked for Vice President of the United States by Kamala Harris because he happens to be a Jew, The governor of Ohio, the mayor of that town in Ohio, has said this is all made up.
01:00:01.000Vance need to be focusing full-time, meticulously, on Kamala Harris' record, on her switches of positions, on the fact that she is a liar, on the fact that, as Vivek Ramaswamy said on the show last week, she's the face of the machine.
01:00:14.000That is what they need to be focusing on.
01:00:27.000Today, I think we should all be once again thanking God that Donald Trump was not shot.
01:00:32.000Today, once again, we should be recognizing that we are one bullet away from a vast cliff that no one knows what's going to happen if we fall off of it.
01:00:44.000Thank God Donald Trump avoided that bullet.
01:00:45.000It was an act of God that he avoided that bullet July 13th.
01:00:48.000Yesterday, he avoided another assassin.
01:00:52.000This is a country that feels like it's on the precipice of something quite terrible.
01:00:56.000And there are only a couple of things that can be done to prevent it.
01:00:59.000One is, obviously, better Secret Service, but the other is people need to stop proclaiming that people on the other side of the political aisle are going to full-scale destroy the country and are Hitlerian figures.
01:01:10.000They should not do that, because the more you say that, the more you are making it real.
01:01:15.000And that is something that, unfortunately, the media seem to have no intention of ratcheting down.
01:01:19.000Okay, in just one second, We'll get to all of the Donald Trump lore loomer of it.
01:01:24.000First, if you're not a member, become a member.
