00:01:29.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:41.000Look, as you know, our friend Mike Lindell has amazing passion and especially has a passion to help everyone get the best sleep of their life.
00:01:48.000He didn't stop by simply creating the best pillow.
00:01:50.000Now Mike has done it again by introducing my slippers for unlimited time.
00:01:54.000You'll save ninety dollars on a pair of my slippers.
00:01:56.000This blowout sale of the year won't last, so order now.
00:01:59.000Mike has taken over two years to develop this.
00:02:01.000The my slippers are designed to wear indoors out, all day long.
00:02:05.000Made with my pillow foam and impact gel to help prevent fatigue.
00:02:55.000In fact, being an active and alert citizen, I believe, is a moral prerogative, both biblically and also.
00:03:03.000You could even make an argument just rooted in natural law, that being a citizen of your nation is a good thing.
00:03:10.000Jeremiah 29, 7 says that demand the welfare of the nation that you are in, because your welfare is tied to your nation's welfare.
00:03:16.000And when we talk about citizenship, it's important to recognize and realize that there's limitations on citizenship, that not everyone gets to be a citizen just because they want to be a citizen.
00:03:27.000That citizenship, yes, you could be born into it, therefore you're tied to the prior social contract of your parents, or you must earn citizenship.
00:03:36.000Now, when you decide to structure the fundamental elements of a society, it's fair to say that when you decide who should have political power, that citizens, the co-rulers, need to be the ones that decide who have political power.
00:03:50.000Now, this might sound so unbelievably patently obvious that the people that are the ones in the society that are citizens, they and they alone are the ones that get to decide who's in power.
00:04:04.000For example, the French, the Saudis, the Iranians, the Chinese, or the Philippine, the Filipinos, they don't get to decide who's our president.
00:04:14.000They don't get to decide who your governor is.
00:04:16.000That only American citizens get to decide who's actually in charge of America.
00:04:22.000I know that sounds to be a radical thing to say in America today that only citizens should be voting in our elections.
00:04:32.000Now, in California, illegals and non-citizens have been voting for quite some time in local elections.
00:04:37.000In fact, this is not some conspiracy theory.
00:04:41.000They allow them to vote in local elections.
00:04:43.000The New York Supreme Court has recently overturned a measure in New York that would have allowed non-citizens or illegals to vote in state elections.
00:04:53.000And remarkably, there's controversy about this.
00:04:57.000Incredibly, we are seeing a development and a theme that is emerging to the surface where mostly Democrats, most of the Democrats, I should say, and people on the left, say that it is wrong and immoral to say that only citizens should be able to vote in such elections.
00:05:16.000Now, let's build out this moral argument further.
00:05:20.000Borders are where good ideas can begin and bad ideas end.
00:05:25.000Borders are a physical line of demarcation of your nation.
00:05:30.000Having sovereign nations is a guarantee towards peace, not these internationalist, globalist, borderless experiments.
00:05:38.000The idea of a nation, especially a nation that has many parts, as the United States of America, actually allows people to feel more connected to their land and their fellow countrymen.
00:05:47.000Now, what if I told you that there is a massive push from our own regime, the Biden regime, to upend and reverse this moral tradition of only citizens voting in our election?
00:06:03.000In an extraordinary move, the Department of Justice has intervened in an Arizona law that will blow your mind, but it shows you exactly where we are as a country.
00:06:13.000The Department of Justice sues Arizona over election law that requires proof of citizenship for federal voting.
00:06:21.000A citizen is a co-owner or a co-ruler of a nation.
00:06:26.000The idea that we get to be citizens is a profound miracle in the story and history of government.
00:06:34.000The idea that we have a self-government, but we have limitations on that self-government.
00:06:39.000For example, we don't get to vote in Brazilian elections.
00:06:42.000We don't get to vote in Polish elections.
00:06:44.000Hungarians don't get to vote in American elections.
00:06:47.000You vote in the country that you are in.
00:06:50.000But the Department of Justice finds a problem with that.
00:06:53.000You see, if only Americans were voting in American elections, well, then those pesky Republicans might continue to win elections.
00:07:01.000The Department of Justice wants to legally block a recently passed law in Arizona that requires proof of citizenship to vote in some federal elections.
00:07:15.000The Department of Justice filed a lawsuit Tuesday to stop the legislation that was signed into law by Governor Ducey in March and is supposed to take effect at the beginning of next year.
00:07:26.000Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clark in the Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division said the Arizona law is a textbook violation of the National Registration Act that requires each state to establish federal election voting procedure, voting registration procedures.
00:07:44.000The Biden Department of Justice is suing Arizona for saying, how dare you ask your voters to prove they're American citizens.
00:07:56.000They continue by saying, quote, for nearly three decades, the National Voter Registration Act has helped move, helped to move states in the right direction by eliminating unnecessary requirements that have historically made it harder for eligible voters to access the registration rolls.
00:08:14.000Quote, Arizona has passed a law that turns the clock back on progress by imposing unlawful and unnecessary requirements that would block eligible voters from the registration rolls for certain federal elections.
00:08:38.000According to the Department of Justice, they're saying in so many words, they believe foreign nationals who did not grow up here, that are not paying appropriate taxes, that broke the law to get into here, that trespassed into our country, that are illegally domiciled in our country, that are illegally harboring themselves in our country, that they should be able to vote in our elections.
00:09:01.000Quote, the Justice Department will continue to use every available tool to protect all Americans' right to vote and to ensure that their voices are heard.
00:09:09.000The question is, what is an American, according to the Department of Justice?
00:09:13.000Is an American someone that is here or someone that is a citizen, that is either born here and then therefore connected to the social contract that pre-existed them, or someone that naturalized and went through a process to become a citizen of this great country.
00:09:30.000Just coming here from Turkey or Azerbaijan or from Russia and walking across the line does not make you an American.
00:09:47.000Is America a country or is America a colony?
00:09:51.000You see, in a colony, being a member of a colony is easy.
00:09:54.000You just got to pay the price of admission.
00:09:56.000And it's just kind of a mixed bag of whomever you want it to be.
00:10:00.000A country has to have requirements and prudence in saying, who do we allow into our nation?
00:10:08.000Now, look, I've said many times that I believe immigration done properly, very limited, small amount of immigrants every year, can help the country grow into a beautiful and amazing state.
00:10:20.000But the way we've done immigration has been foolish and wrong and immoral to the people that are here, to the people that are going to come here.
00:10:30.000It has issues of assimilation, has cultural impact issues.
00:10:34.000In fact, that's why I've said we have to have a moratorium on immigration, both legal and illegal, until we figure out what the heck is going on.
00:10:41.000Now, why would Arizona pass such a law?
00:10:45.000Well, because it has become very easy to get a driver's license in states like California and Arizona.
00:10:53.000I think I missed the deadline for the primary, but I definitely get it on the general.
00:10:56.000Just officially moved here and got my residency here as COVID kind of delayed a lot of that.
00:11:04.000But on the Arizona voter registration form, it asks the question, are you a U.S. citizen?
00:11:11.000Yes or no, under penalty of perjury or felony, a felony.
00:11:15.000It also asks for your driver's license identification number.
00:11:18.000And it's not just conceivable, it is practical to believe that the very voter registration form that I filled out yesterday, in Arizona, filled out by an illegal, absent the citizenship question at the end, with the driver's license identification number there put in place, that you could have a lot of non-citizens registering to vote in our elections.
00:11:44.000And so under a 1996 Arizona law, anyone seeking a driver's license must prove identity and legal presence in the country.
00:11:53.000The same requirement exists for non-operator identification cards issued by ADOT.
00:11:59.000So illegals cannot get driver's licenses in Arizona.
00:12:25.000Arizona wants to require applicants to show documents that prove they are a citizen before they can vote in a presidential election or vote by mail in any federal election when applicants use the uniform federal registration.
00:12:36.000The DOJ argued that the new law ignored a 2013 Supreme Court ruling that shot down an earlier attempt in 2005 for Arizona to improve similar documentary proof of citizenship on residents that want to vote in federal elections.
00:12:50.000The Department of Justice also argued the law violates the Civil Rights Act.
00:12:54.000Interesting how it always goes back to the civil rights regime, doesn't it?
00:12:57.000Of 1964 because it mandates election officials to reject voter registration forms that have minor errors.
00:13:03.000Clark sent a June 27th letter to Arizona Attorney General Mark Bernovich threatening litigation, but the Department of Justice hopes to resolve the issue, quote, amicably and avoid protracted litigation.
00:13:14.000In a letter Bernovich sent Clark on July 1st, obtained by Fox News, he said the newly passed law, quote, was common sense and questioned if the federal government is, quote, attempting to undermine our sovereignty and destabilize our election infrastructure.
00:13:54.000If I'm able to vote in Nicaraguan elections or able to vote in Japanese elections as a non-citizen, that by definition destroys the sovereignty and their own moral, self-directed, self-governing prerogative to be able to decide who's in their country and who's not in their country.
00:14:11.000The Democrats have moved the Overton window so effectively where they want you to believe that anybody should be able to come into America for any reason whatsoever.
00:14:22.000There must be a process to come in, and we the citizens, that's right, we the citizens can decide whether to put a pause on immigration, increase immigration, have no immigration at all.
00:14:33.000Every sane country feels this way, by the way.
00:14:36.000That immigration must serve the nation state first and foremost and the people that are already there.
00:14:45.000Assimilation is an act of patriotic affection.
00:14:49.000What happens when you have millions of people that don't assimilate?
00:14:52.000Maybe you should press pause and say, we're not going to be a country any longer.
00:14:55.000The Biden regime is intentionally inserting themselves by saying that if you ask anyone to prove they're a citizen of the country, it's somehow racist against the Civil Rights Act.
00:15:06.000I want to just say the episode we did yesterday, I was so touched by many of you that emailed us about our show yesterday on antidepressants and how antidepressants are having an incredibly damaging effect potentially on our nation's young people and how they're being over-prescribed.
00:16:22.000And if not, we have a naturalization process that allows people to go through that.
00:16:26.000Now, I do not believe in mass amnesty at all.
00:16:29.000But at the very least, people that go through a naturalization process, at least there something to make them go to become an American citizen.
00:16:39.000At a time when 19 states have passed more restrictive voter laws, it's so deceivingly written by ABC News, have passed more restrictive voter laws to make it more difficult for United States citizens to cast a ballot, there is a push to expand voting rights in local elections to non-citizens in cities both large and small across the country.
00:16:58.000Siva Raj says, quote, everybody wants the same thing.
00:17:02.000They want their kids to have a good education and they want them to have a successful life.
00:17:48.000You said you were just visiting here and you lied.
00:17:51.000If we just decided to move to Japan, which takes like eight immigrants a year, by the way, Japan has one of the lowest rates of immigration in the entire world.
00:17:59.000That's why Japan has a very low crime, I would argue, but that's a separate issue.
00:18:05.000You're not allowed to say that out loud, but anyway.
00:18:07.000Immigration can play a positive role, by the way, but we never talk about the negative role ever.
00:18:12.000You never talk about the negative impacts of how mass immigration can actually raise crime and deteriorate your public infrastructure.
00:18:18.000And so Arizona in particular, where we're doing our show right now, is being invaded on the southern border.
00:18:27.000And as a proper response, Arizona legislatures are saying, no, if you're being invaded with 7,000 people a day, 7,000 people a day, then you should be able to say, you know what?
00:18:38.000No, you're going to have to prove if you're going to vote in our next election, because it's one thing to break into our country and send your kids to our schools and fill up our hospitals and clog our highways.
00:18:48.000But it's another thing to say that all of a sudden you're going to be able to cast ballots and dilute the sovereignty of the citizens that were here before you.
00:18:58.000Now, a lot of Republicans are totally messed up on the immigration issue.
00:19:03.000Some of them will say, legal, good, illegal, bad.
00:19:06.000Like, okay, that's such a silly argument, honestly.
00:19:08.000Let's go a level deeper, which is mass immigration right now in its current form is making America less free.
00:19:19.000And if you are continually bringing people like Elon Omar, who do not assimilate to your country and do not assimilate to the ties that we have together, you can't have a country that way.
00:19:29.000A country requires, again, not a colony.
00:19:32.000If you want to live in a colony, go to Hong Kong.
00:19:34.000No one has anything in common except money.
00:19:37.000I want things in common deeper than just finance and money.
00:24:51.000But if you're the governor of Texas or if you're the governor of Arizona and you are continually blaming the federal government, that works for the first 60 days.
00:25:22.000Mobilize the National Guard, create a Texas Border Patrol, begin the deportations, arrest on site, send them back to the country they came in.
00:25:30.000Now, mind you, a lot of people will say that this is a defiance of federal law.
00:25:38.000Need I remind you that San Francisco, Los Angeles, Portland, Seattle, Chicago, New York, Boston, and D.C. have created and still have quasi-secessionist movements called sanctuary cities, meaning federal law does not apply here.
00:25:54.000So if sanctuary cities are allowed to defy federal law, why are border states not able to enforce federal law?
00:26:57.000Voters go and elect Republicans to fix problems, but instead we get press releases and one-liners on cable television.
00:27:06.000I'm running out of patience and you should as well because political power has been given to these leaders and they're doing nothing with it.
00:27:21.000The migration that is occurring throughout the hemisphere is reflective of the economic downturn, increase in violence throughout the region, the result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the results of climate change.
00:27:50.000He has overseen the intentional invasion of America and has spun it as a good thing.
00:27:54.000That man has done more to destroy American sovereignty in a year and a half than anybody in the cabinet position that I've seen in a long period of time.
00:28:02.000He has intentionally and knowingly allowed cartels, human smugglers, traffickers, rapists, and fentanyl flow into America while he goes on television and allows himself to look like some sort of open border zealot.
00:28:16.000Mayorkis is a star because Democrats want the illegals into America, want them for a variety of reasons because they've told us why they want them.
00:28:26.000The Castro brothers say that this is going to help us politically.
00:28:30.000And every time you say that out loud, they say it's the great replacement theory.
00:28:33.000No, no, we're just using your own words time and time again.
00:28:37.000And not to mention it makes America more dangerous.
00:28:40.000It makes our schools overrun, our hospitals overrun.
00:28:43.000And not to mention the fentanyl, which is produced in China, organized and filtered by the cartel and put into our country.
00:28:50.000And our leaders sit on their hands and write a bunch of press releases.
00:28:53.000I'm kind of sick of Republicans writing angry.
00:28:56.000I'm going to send them an angry worded letter.
00:30:11.000I think most Republicans right now like their cushy title, their chauffeur cars, their designer clothes, their catered lunches, their staff around them.
00:30:25.000I think I personally believe spending some time around politicians, of which I have very little respect for many of them.
00:30:31.000Ron Johnson was great yesterday and he was terrific.
00:33:37.000If the Iranian Revolutionary Guard was smuggling human beings across the southern border and dirty bombs and tanks, do you think we should just let them and give them amnesty?
00:33:48.000Or do you think we should respond in kind?
00:34:19.000It's taking a poor person from Veracruz, Mexico, or a poor person from El Salvador and smuggling them up to the border and getting them to cross the border.
00:34:38.000And so the big takeaway is this, is that we have been hearing words and words and words from our Republican officials.
00:34:47.000And so Arizona is going to have a new governor.
00:34:50.000Texas is going to probably have the same governor.
00:34:52.000Those two people in the next 18 months can very well determine the future of American sovereignty in the question of will we be a colony or a country.
00:35:00.000Now, New Mexico is a short part of the border, and it's actually a very difficult part of the border to cross.
00:35:05.000Unfortunately, unless New Mexico has a big sea change, not going to happen.
00:35:10.000But here's the thing about California that you must recognize and realize is that California, being so far to the west and kind of being part of Baja California, does not get the same amount of border crossings.
00:35:21.000Now, yes, they're going to fly to Mexicali and maybe go in there.
00:35:26.000But if California remains completely and totally wide open, but Arizona and Texas do their job, the 7,000 people crossing our border a day can get down to 1,000.
00:35:35.000Yeah, that makes a very big difference, huge difference.
00:35:38.000And by the way, if all of a sudden Arizona starts deporting the illegals in their own state, which they should be doing, forget the feds.
