00:00:46.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.

00:00:49.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.

00:00:53.000 I want to thank Charlie.

00:00:54.000 He's an incredible guy.

00:00:55.000 His spirit is love of this country.

00:00:57.000 He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created.

00:01:02.000 Turning point USA. 0.65

00:01:03.000 We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.

00:01:12.000 That's why we are here.

00:01:15.000 Brought to you by my friends, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage, 888, 888, 1172 or AndrewandTodd.com.

00:01:25.000 Those of you that email us, freedom at charliekirk.com, we are taking your questions.

00:01:32.000 Okay, so we're getting a lot of different questions about the shooting of these police officers.

00:01:39.000 Charlie, what's happening here?

00:01:40.000 What's behind it?

00:01:41.000 It's very sad.

00:01:43.000 Police officers do amazing work.

00:01:45.000 They do remarkable things for their communities, and their commitment is extraordinary.

00:01:49.000 So we're going to play a series of tapes here.

00:01:51.000 We have a question right here from Carlton from Vermont.

00:01:56.000 Charlie, what's going on with the officers being shot?

00:01:59.000 What do you think the political ramifications of this could be?

00:02:01.000 Let's play Cut 80, where it's now gaining momentum to remove Manhattan's new progressive DA.

00:02:07.000 We called this, this is so sad, it's so tragic, it's so preventable, but I have a different take on the progressive DA than most people.

00:02:15.000 Play Cut 80.

00:02:17.000 His policies benefit nobody.

00:02:20.000 See, it's not a district attorney's job to go out there and turn the laws into the way he or she sees fit.

00:02:26.000 Outrage is boiling over in New York City.

00:02:29.000 Pressure growing for New York's governor to now remove Manhattan's new progressive district attorney.

00:02:35.000 Will she stand up to his soft on crime policies or cave to the left?

00:02:42.000 So I have a different take on this than I think you might expect.

00:02:46.000 And, but let's play a couple more tapes here just about the tragedy of what's happening in Manhattan.

00:02:51.000 I loved New York for a long time.

00:02:52.000 I still love New York.

00:02:53.000 It's so sad what's happening there.

00:02:55.000 Play Cut 81.

00:02:56.000 If reforms are needed based on data that is still being gathered, I'm willing to have those conversations.

00:03:02.000 So I don't feel just because people for political reasons, like the individuals that you're quoting here today, want me to give an answer.

00:03:10.000 That's not how I operate.

00:03:12.000 I don't cave to pressure.

00:03:13.000 I do what's right based on all the facts that come before me.

00:03:17.000 Well, the facts, how about this one?

00:03:18.000 Cut 92 of the widow of Officer Dominique Luzigiara, who speaks at the funeral about the DA.

00:03:24.000 Play Cut 92.

00:03:25.000 I know you were tired of these laws, especially the ones from the new DA.

00:03:31.000 I hope he's watching you.

00:03:33.000 Speak through me right now.

00:03:38.000 I'm sure all of our blue family is tired too.

00:03:43.000 But I promise, we promise that your death won't be in vain.

00:03:51.000 So I've never seen that before.

00:03:54.000 Do you know what you just saw?

00:03:55.000 That's a funeral where people are applauding a political statement.

00:04:00.000 She's at a church for a funeral.

00:04:00.000 Think about that.

00:04:02.000 And by the way, totally appropriate.

00:04:03.000 I'm not saying it's inappropriate.

00:04:04.000 It's just extraordinary.

00:04:05.000 I haven't seen that ever.

00:04:07.000 Where a widow is saying, if it wasn't for the new DA, I know you don't like these policies from the new DA.

00:04:12.000 So what exactly did this new DA do?

00:04:16.000 Well, his name is Alvin Bragg.

00:04:19.000 He is a George Soros-funded open the prisons, get rid of the laws puppet.

00:04:26.000 We warned about Alvin Bragg, right, a couple weeks ago.

00:04:30.000 We went into detail about what he was trying to do.

00:04:34.000 Alvin Bragg is the new district attorney for Manhattan.

00:04:43.000 Soft on crime would be putting it nicely.

00:04:45.000 It's no on crime.

00:04:47.000 But what's so interesting about all of this is, and this is where I have a little bit of a different take, is that Alvin Bragg is doing everything he was elected to do.

00:05:02.000 This is not some sort of game where Alvin Bragg, who is now being blamed by widows of fallen cops for their death or for the increase in crime, he ran on this and people voted for it.

00:05:16.000 If you go to alvinbragg.com and you go through his issues, he's really clear about this.

00:05:25.000 He's clear that he believes that the justice system is so rigged, so backwards, I should say, that he needs to do something about it.

00:05:36.000 So Alvin Bragg, it shows on his website, black people are at risk every moment of every day, the new DA of Manhattan says.

00:05:44.000 Prosecutorial discretion, the prosecutor's role in curbing infections in prisons.

00:05:50.000 Alvin Bragg wrote, quote, the tax on being black in America, prosecutors must come down hard on white women who call the cops, who called the cops on black birdwatcher. 1.00

00:06:00.000 Alvin Bragg wrote, quote, how to hold cops legally accountable for killings, Alvin Bragg wrote.

00:06:08.000 Quote, Eric Garner is proof that we need to have reform laws and excessive force.

00:06:13.000 Quote, prosecutors must help those with criminal records secure jobs.

00:06:17.000 So what am I getting at here?

00:06:20.000 This shouldn't surprise anybody.

00:06:24.000 Preet Bahara endorsed him.

00:06:28.000 Eric Garner's mom endorsed him.

00:06:31.000 He's been pushing for an anti-police agenda at every single turn.

00:06:35.000 He's a J.B. Pritzker type, if you haven't seen a picture of him.

00:06:40.000 But the people wanted this.

00:06:42.000 They voted for it.

00:06:43.000 He ran on it.

00:06:44.000 He promised to go after the police.

00:06:48.000 He promised to use the district attorney's office as a way to attack the rule of law.

00:06:54.000 He says almost every single turn, you read his actual writings, nothing that he has actually implemented as policy should shock you.

00:07:03.000 Cut 93B roll of thousands of officers gathered in New York to honor their fallen play cut 93 and I'll narrate over it.

00:07:11.000 So there you have thousands.

00:07:13.000 I mean, that looks like a scene out of Batman.

00:07:15.000 Thousands and thousands and thousands of New York police officers that are honoring the fallen.

00:07:22.000 Now, this is not just isolated to New York, I should say.

00:07:28.000 Suspect charged in Texas corporal's shooting death entered the United States illegally.

00:07:34.000 Suspect charged with capital murder in the shooting death of Texas corporal during a Houston traffic stop last weekend was a citizen of El Salvador and previously entered the United States illegally.

00:07:46.000 Jose Oscar Rosales, a 50-year-old citizen of El Salvador, was arrested Wednesday in Ciudad de Acuna, Mexico, for the killing of Harris County Corporal Charles Galloway.

00:07:58.000 Quote: Rosales previously illegally entered the United States on an unknown date at an unknown location without inspection or parole by the United States immigration officials and later fled to Mexico after allegedly murdering a Harris County, Texas constables constable.

00:08:16.000 See, I grew up north of the Mason-Dixon line.

00:08:19.000 We didn't have such constables or constables there.

00:08:23.000 So, the issue is that you know what's so interesting?

00:08:27.000 So, he murders a police officer and then he goes back to Mexico. 0.74

00:08:32.000 It's like, I'm going to go live in America and try to get as much money, but if I'm trying to flee crime, I'm trying to go back to Mexico.

00:08:40.000 Laura has emailed us because I'm taking your questions: freedom at charliekirk.com.

00:08:45.000 She says, I believe America is becoming a third world country.

00:08:48.000 Charlie, I believe we are witnessing a real-life Atlas-shrugged scenario.

00:08:52.000 If you haven't read the book, now's a good time to do so, or at least get the cliff notes.

00:08:56.000 I have read it, I'm rereading it.

00:08:58.000 I actually paused reading it for a couple months for a variety of different reasons.

00:09:02.000 It's a little bit too materialistic for my liking, and some of the philosophy there is awfully flawed.

00:09:07.000 However, I will give Ayn Rand credit for her diction, her prose, her talent as a writer, and her, let's say, anticipation of how collectivism and tyranny truly does choke the spirit and the soul of a nation.

00:09:19.000 I think she's a very gifted writer in that sense, and she was a vehement anti-communist because she actually lived under communism.

00:09:26.000 Kirjo emailed us: speaking of rule of law, why doesn't the smuggling of illegal aliens into the country by the United States government violate Article 4, Section 4 of the Constitution, which guarantees, quote, to every state in this union a Republican form of government and protects, quote, each of them against invasion?

00:09:44.000 How can a state have a Republican form of government if the U.S. government, without their consent, deposits massive numbers of unchecked people into their states?

00:09:52.000 What about the cost?

00:09:53.000 It's such a good point, Joe.

00:09:54.000 Honestly, we have the smartest listeners.

00:09:56.000 I would put our listeners up against any other group.

00:09:59.000 That's such a smart point.

00:10:00.000 It's totally right.

00:10:01.000 And it should be.

00:10:02.000 The courts would never rule that way because that would be deemed politically incorrect.

00:10:07.000 And but when you have it, it's a legit invasion.

00:10:10.000 And that's the problem: the words that are used actually really matter.

00:10:15.000 So if you're a constitutionalist or an originalist, like we are on this program, we're originalists.

00:10:20.000 They are revisionists.

00:10:21.000 That's the difference, okay?

00:10:22.000 So you have a revisionist and you have an originalist.

00:10:25.000 A revisionist looks at the Constitution as an ever-changing, living, breathing document.

00:10:29.000 It is what you want it to be.

00:10:31.000 We believe in founders' intent.

00:10:34.000 We believe there's a reason they wrote it the way they did.

00:10:36.000 And if you have a problem with that, then go through the Article 1 of the Constitution and change the laws.

00:10:41.000 So Article 4 is there for a reason.

00:10:44.000 Article 4, Section 4 of the United States Constitution guarantees to every state in this union a Republican form of government and protects each of them against invasion.

00:10:53.000 So what happens when the federal government forgoes its responsibility and we are legitimately invaded from the southern border?

00:11:03.000 And you might say, Charlie, it's not invasion.

00:11:04.000 I mean, come on.

00:11:06.000 It's just migration.

00:11:09.000 It's seasonal flow of people.

00:11:13.000 Well, what number would have you believe it is an invasion?

00:11:17.000 20 million?

00:11:18.000 Well, that's how much it's been over the last 20 years minimum.

00:11:23.000 And by the way, you have foreign governments that are not just allowing this, but some would say sponsoring it.

00:11:31.000 Do you know there's over $85 billion a year in remittances back to Mexico?

00:11:40.000 So you might wonder, what is a remittance?

00:11:42.000 A remittance is when you have a Honduran that crosses the southern border.

00:11:47.000 He'll go up to Las Vegas or Flagstaff or Santa Fe.

00:11:51.000 He'll go work by stealing a social security number that our own government does not enforce.

00:11:57.000 He'll work cash jobs or whatever.

00:11:59.000 And then he'll go to Walmart.

00:12:02.000 He'll go to Walmart and execute a money transfer.

00:12:07.000 Walmart makes a lot of money on this, by the way, because there's like a $5 fee for every single money transfer.

00:12:13.000 I think it's like $5, right?

00:12:14.000 $5 to $10 for an amount over $500.

00:12:17.000 So then they will remit money, cash, U.S. currency dollars back to Mexico.

00:12:24.000 That's really good for the Mexican economy, by the way.

00:12:27.000 It's a phenomenal stimulus.

00:12:29.000 So you get the much stronger dollar that then gets remitted back to pesos.

00:12:37.000 So the South American, Central American, and Mexican government, not only do they get their criminals out of their country, so their crime goes down, for every criminal that comes here, it's one less rapist, one less murderer, one less arsonist, one less drug trafficker that's in Mexico. 0.60

00:12:53.000 And they got plenty of criminals in Mexico.

00:12:54.000 The cartels have institutionalized it.

00:12:56.000 But it's for them, and Trump wasn't wrong when he said this.

00:12:59.000 This is what's so incredible.

00:13:00.000 They're not sending their best.

00:13:02.000 Not wrong.

00:13:03.000 You think the El Salvador government was upset that Jose Oscar Oscar Rosales, 50-year-old citizen of El Salvador, killed somebody in America?

00:13:13.000 Maybe I'm not upset about that, but they were probably like, well, at least he didn't do it in our country.

00:13:17.000 Remittances is one of the least talked about economic reasons why the southern border never gets built.

00:13:26.000 Big corporations benefit tremendously through the financial incentives of remittances.

00:13:33.000 And also, foreign governments lobby our own government very hard to continue these open border policies.

00:13:39.000 All the while the rule of law is deteriorated.

00:13:41.000 And very smart comment from Joe: Article 4, Section 4 of the Constitution guarantees to every state in its union a Republican form of government and protects each of them against invasion.

00:13:51.000 I don't think that would go very far in the courts.

00:13:53.000 Alexander Hamilton properly and correctly, I should say, correctly predicted the courts will always go the way of public opinion.

00:14:00.000 And right now, public opinion is not that this is an invasion.

00:14:02.000 We could try to change that opinion, but the more you get invaded and all of a sudden then they become the new citizens, they're probably not going to view that as an invasion.

00:14:11.000 You only got so much of a population you could work with for some time that will view the cartels that are smuggling girls, the Sinola cartel that is bringing across fentanyl or heroin.

00:14:22.000 Most of the fentanyl comes from China, by the way.

00:14:26.000 Open border policies, they're bad for communities, they're bad for gun crime, they're bad for drugs, they're bad for wages, bad for the rule of law.

00:14:34.000 And yet we continue to see that.

00:14:36.000 Two million people that crossed into our country.

00:14:39.000 Yes, it is a violation of Article 4, Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution.

00:14:45.000 I want to take a moment and thank Patriot Mobile, my new cell phone provider, for their support.

00:14:50.000 Whether it's on this show, other conservative hosts, Turning Point USA, or others, they get it.

00:14:56.000 Look, here's how Patriot Mobile works.

00:14:58.000 Instead of you using some cell company that runs all these woke TV advertisements that make you cringe during a football game, Patriot Mobile has the same towers, but you are working with a company where any profits they make get given back to pro-life groups, Turning Point USA.

00:15:15.000 You are partnering with patriots.

00:15:16.000 I know Glenn, he runs Patriot Mobile, does a great job.

00:15:19.000 They offer broad nationwide coverage.

00:15:21.000 In fact, they use the same towers as the major carriers.

00:15:24.000 They get great nationwide coverage, plus the peace of mind that your money isn't supporting the left.

00:15:29.000 Stop giving money to people who hate you.

00:15:31.000 So look, when you pay your cell phone bill, if you are paying one of the big guys, you might as well, on your credit card statement, it might as well say BLM. 0.66

00:15:38.000 You are a donor to BLM if you give money to the major cell phone companies.

00:15:42.000 Patriot Mobile has plans to fit any budget, and their 100% U.S.-based customer support team provides exceptional customer support.

00:16:29.000 If you wouldn't give money to Planned Parenthood, if you wouldn't give money to Transgender Lobby, if you wouldn't give money to the Alphabet Mafia, if you wouldn't give money to BLM, then why would you do it via your cell phone company?

00:16:39.000 You might say, Well, Charlie, I don't know a competitor.

00:16:41.000 Well, now you know one.

00:16:42.000 It's called Patriot Mobile.

00:16:43.000 It's super simple: patriotmobile.com/slash Charlie.

00:16:46.000 I have done this.

00:16:46.000 Our entire team is moving towards Patriot Mobile.

00:16:49.000 Producer Andrew is signaling his phone right now.

00:16:51.000 He's on Patriot Mobile, and now he knows that his cell phone bill every single month supports the good guys, not the wokies. 1.00

00:16:59.000 PatriotMobile.com/slash Charlie.

00:17:04.000 I have two amazing grassroots leaders here from Arizona, Dan Farley and Marissa Hamilton, and they both do a great job.

00:17:10.000 And we're going to, so we're taking questions from our audience, and we're going to take questions from Arizona about Arizona.

00:17:15.000 So, first, Marissa, you know, you're in the grassroots.

00:17:17.000 You're pushing for a lot of different things right now.

00:17:19.000 Give us the update out of Arizona.

00:17:21.000 Sure, absolutely.

00:17:22.000 So, we run an organization called easyaz.org.

00:17:27.000 Our goal and mission is to make civic action easy as pie.

00:17:32.000 And so, if you have 15 minutes a week, we can work together to save AZ.

00:17:37.000 And so, what we do is we track all the bills that are happening.

00:17:41.000 We track primarily the radical left and what they're trying to kill.

00:17:45.000 And so, we identify what those key target bills are so that we can make a huge difference.

00:17:50.000 And so, those are the action items we put out.

00:17:52.000 It's really easy.

00:17:54.000 We even go to the Capitol to sign you up to be able to do the thumbs up and thumbs down on the bills.

00:17:59.000 And we just put out the action alerts.

00:18:01.000 You press a button, and that's how you can make your voice heard.

00:18:05.000 Well, that sounds awesome, and good for you.

00:18:07.000 There's a lot of new activists coming to Arizona, both on the left and the right.

00:18:10.000 So, we need to make sure that conservatives are activated.

00:18:12.000 Dan, you're a Tea Party leader from Scottsdale.

00:18:14.000 You've done a lot with Precinct Committee recruitment.

00:18:17.000 What's the latest in the fight for election integrity?

00:18:19.000 We just got a question right now from Mark from Anthem.

00:18:22.000 What is going on with election integrity, the audit, legislation around it?

00:18:26.000 Dan, what's going on with that?

00:18:27.000 Well, I was listening to your segment before this.

00:18:30.000 You focused a lot on the illegal immigration.

00:18:33.000 And I did an interview with another outlet in November of 2020 on the issue of the federal form.

00:18:42.000 I'm happy to see that both Representative Jake Hoffman and Senator Townsend is trying to address that issue here locally.

00:18:52.000 That is probably what we should be focused on because nationally speaking, we were told that there was no problem with the Biden election, yet the first bill that they introduced in the House was to legalize voting fraud in all 50 states.

00:19:10.000 When that couldn't get through, they passed it as HR4.

00:19:13.000 Now they've gutted a NASA bill, and now they're trying to slip that in again.

00:19:17.000 So, what is the federal form?

00:19:19.000 Okay, that's a great question.

00:19:20.000 So, there's only a handful of states in the country that actually require ID and proof of citizenship.

00:19:27.000 We passed a proposition many years ago that required that in our state.

00:19:33.000 We had a lawsuit that went to the Supreme Court.

00:19:36.000 The Supreme Court said that all of the states had to handle the federal form in the same way.

00:19:41.000 So there was a compromise reached where those that register to vote on the federal form can vote in federal elections, but not in state elections without proof of citizenship.

00:19:52.000 So on the federal form, you're supposed, it's just kind of like you come in and then you get a court date, but you never come back as an illegal immigrant.

00:19:59.000 It's the same situation with the voter registration.

00:20:02.000 On the federal form, you're supposed to provide proof of citizenship later, but it never is produced.

00:20:07.000 So you bring in between two and seven million illegal immigrants, and that's basically what they're attempting to do with the federal form and then HR1, HR4, and then what we've got going on with the NASA bill.

00:20:19.000 Election integrity is one of the three main fights we're in, and we have to be vigilant in it, not only here in Arizona with the audit, but everywhere else in the nation.

00:20:28.000 And as Arizona goes, the nation goes.

00:20:28.000 I agree.

00:20:31.000 So Marissa, what is the latest legislatively to actually fix our elections?

00:20:36.000 Because it looks like, you know, I live here in Arizona.

00:20:38.000 You guys do too.

00:20:39.000 I'm still kind of learning the political terrain here.

00:20:39.000 I care a lot about Arizona.

00:20:44.000 And it seems like things are going to go well for Republicans unless the elections are conducted the same way.

00:20:50.000 So what's going on to help fix our elections?

00:20:50.000 Yes.

00:20:52.000 So our grassroots has shown up in a big way.

00:20:55.000 Last year, we killed Katie Hobbes' election manual draft. 1.00

00:20:59.000 That draft had some horrible things in it.

00:21:01.000 They tried to connect our machines to the internet.

00:21:03.000 Pretty much every single thing that the left denied was happening, Katie Hobbs put in there to try to make it law. 1.00

00:21:08.000 So we won that fight.

00:21:10.000 It was killed twice.

00:21:11.000 So now we have to focus on legislation.

00:21:13.000 The good news is, is that in our Senate committee, that's led by Senator Kelly Townsend, another grassroots win for us.

00:21:21.000 And so we passed seven election integrity bills at a committee last week.

00:21:26.000 We have another several committee bills that are going to be heard on the House.

00:21:31.000 And so in the House side, we have Representative Jay Kaufman as vice chair of that.

00:21:36.000 And so he's a powerhouse for anyone that knows him.

00:21:38.000 So some of the important bills that are up this week are HB 2236, a Jay Kaufman bill.

00:21:45.000 This is about, this is stopping automatic voter registration, which is important because there's many people that don't want to be registered to vote.

00:21:52.000 That allows for ballot harvesting and a lot of cheating.

00:21:55.000 Can I stop you right there?

00:21:56.000 So is it law of the land right now in Arizona where everyone gets automatically registered?

00:22:00.000 No, it is not.

00:22:01.000 So we're stopping it just to preempt it or?

00:22:04.000 We are stopping to preempt it because the federal laws are trying to have automatic voter registration.

00:22:10.000 To prevent the potential federal takeover of elections.

00:22:12.000 Yes.

00:22:12.000 Okay.

00:22:13.000 Dan, do you have a thought on that earlier?

00:22:14.000 I do.

00:22:15.000 So like I think your listeners need to understand, like initially bail-in ballot sounds very convenient and easy, but the issues start to arise when you're on a permanent voting registration list and you keep getting a ballot.

00:22:33.000 You can't get off of that.

00:22:34.000 The voter lists get worse month after month, year after year.

00:22:38.000 And in areas where there aren't good addressing, you can basically create almost as many ballots as you want.

00:22:44.000 And when you have voting centers as opposed to precincts, precincts are an ability to audit how many ballots have actually been done.

00:22:51.000 When you have a voting center, you can stuff it with as many ballots as you want.

00:22:56.000 And if you don't have an ID that's required to submit your ballot at the vote at the precinct, then anybody can bring as many ballots as they want when you're not looking to stuff these envelopes or to stuff these boxes.

00:23:08.000 We need to bring that under control nationwide.

00:23:11.000 So Marissa, I kind of cut you off.

00:23:13.000 I apologize.

00:23:13.000 So please continue.

00:23:14.000 Thank you, Dan.

00:23:15.000 Well, just to his point, we've also had an issue with deceased voters.

00:23:19.000 The grassroots did the research to audit the deceased voters, and we got the first indictment of voter fraud in the state last year.

00:23:25.000 And so it was not required for the Secretary of State to remove deceased voters until last year.

00:23:33.000 And so this automatic voter registration is basically a workaround to try to undo the progress we did last year.

00:23:40.000 The next bill that we have up that we need to pay attention to is HB 2492, another Jay Kaufman bill.

00:23:47.000 And this is a voter registration verification citizenship requirement.

00:23:52.000 So this kind of helps with the issue that we were just talking about with the federal only bills.

00:23:57.000 And last week, Kelly Townsend got many of her bills on that passed out of committee. 0.95

00:24:02.000 Another one that we need to focus on is Kelly Townsend has 1056, which is a very important bill about missed place ballots.

00:24:13.000 That one was on the schedule for last week.

00:24:16.000 This is going to be that suitcase situation where someone on camera pulls out a suitcase and now, or there's like ballots that were found outside.

00:24:24.000 That can't happen anymore.

00:24:25.000 There will be penalties for that to occur and those ballots will be considered invalid.

00:24:29.000 So, Dan, are you optimistic or pessimistic?

00:24:32.000 We could start to get some of these fixes.

00:24:34.000 Well, you know, if we're going to shoot straight, the reality of the situation is grassroots has to beat two parties in order to get it done.

00:24:43.000 I have not been at all impressed with Ducey's lack of leadership on the border, lack of leadership on these issues.

00:24:52.000 And I'm of the mindset that there might have been a legislature that was in legislator intentionally not bringing them to the floor so he wouldn't have to veto or sign them.

00:25:03.000 And that's totally unacceptable.

00:25:05.000 Do we have a Republican Party in the state that serves constituents or not?

00:25:09.000 And if we don't, then we're going to bring in as many precinct committee men as it requires until they're replaced.

00:25:14.000 And that's the way it's going to work.

00:25:16.000 There's a lot of people that feel that way because it's like there's a uniparty.

00:25:19.000 Why is it?

00:25:20.000 Can you guys speculate a little bit?

00:25:21.000 Why is the Republican Party fighting this?

00:25:23.000 I don't get it.

00:25:24.000 So I have a little bit of a difference of opinion on this.

00:25:28.000 Yes, we do have an establishment faction within the Republican Party, but especially with the work that Dan has done on precinct committeemen, they have been disabled considerably.

00:25:38.000 And last year, we had a lot of hope.

00:25:40.000 We held the session as the grassroots open to make it the fourth longest session because we would not let the session end until they passed election integrity.

00:25:48.000 So I think that we have so much momentum right now that they're not going to get away with not passing it.

00:25:54.000 And so I believe that we will have a strong year for election integrity.

00:25:58.000 So we have a question here from Cynthia from Tucson, which she says basically, it's a long question.

00:26:04.000 She doesn't trust her elections in Tucson at all.

00:26:06.000 She thinks that just kind of goes into the abyss.

00:26:09.000 What can she do from now till whenever to fix this? 0.94

00:26:13.000 So there's a couple of things.

00:26:14.000 One, voter registration.

00:26:15.000 Voter registration is key.

00:26:17.000 The left has beat us on voter registration up until these last couple of years, but we have to make a lot of progress on that.

00:26:23.000 So register as many voters as possible.

00:26:26.000 The second thing is we have the election integrity unit under the AG.

00:26:29.000 That's where we have gotten all of our indictments of voter fraud to come from.

00:26:34.000 And so we are going to be EZAZ will be teaching our voters how to identify the bad things, what they need to document, and then how to get that information to the election integrity unit so it can be investigated and we can hold people accountable.

00:26:47.000 So Dan, I sense your frustration.

00:26:48.000 I share your frustration about the unit party.

00:26:50.000 I want you to explain the balance, right?

00:26:52.000 Because we don't like the Republican Party, but we don't want a third party.

00:26:54.000 That would be a bad idea, right?

00:26:55.000 So how do you strike that balance?

00:26:56.000 A lot of people share that anger that you have that are listening to us.

00:26:59.000 I do too.

00:27:01.000 Well, okay, first on the Tucson thing, I am going to be down there with some other trainers this Saturday at the Gaslight Theater starting at 9 a.m. to noon.

00:27:11.000 And we will be empowering over 100 precinct committeemen tomorrow.

00:27:18.000 And then on the election integrity, Marissa does an outstanding job focusing on the state legislature and individual issues. 1.00

00:27:24.000 But we also have another group that has teams that we've built over this last year, which is called America PAC.

00:27:30.000 Through all these precinct committeemen that we recruited, we developed teams.

00:27:34.000 So we've got a school board team, a city council team, an election integrity team, and we've got a state legislature team.

00:27:39.000 And that election integrity team is someone, they can join on Zoom and they can be mentored by what we've already been doing all year.

00:27:46.000 And this can be replicated throughout the nation if we as grassroots work on it.

00:27:51.000 And Dan, you're not like a paid political operative.

00:27:53.000 You're just doing this because you love it, right?

00:27:56.000 Am I wrong?

00:27:57.000 I have not.

00:27:58.000 I actually lose money.

00:27:59.000 I've been giving about, well, this week I am on track to give 80 hours this week, but usually it's been 40 to 60 hours a week for the last 28 months at my own expense and helping to pay for offices and training people.

00:28:12.000 So we have a website, AZGrassrootshub.com.

00:28:15.000 You can take a look at that to see what kind of trainings we're doing out of that on a regular basis.

00:28:19.000 We're doing weekly trainings, political empowerment trainings.

00:28:23.000 Basically, I would love every state to take a look at what I built on an Excel workbook that gives an entire landscape of the political landscape for the state.

00:28:30.000 Then we do door knocking training.

00:28:31.000 We have the GOP data center, which shows us who the hard Republicans are who voted in all the primaries and general elections.

00:28:37.000 Those are the people we want to make precinct committee men.

00:28:39.000 They're going to care the most.

00:28:40.000 And then we've got like the campaign sidekick.

00:28:43.000 The RNC is so, I think, impressed with the turnouts that we've had, both in PCs and training that the county and the National Party are working hand in hand.

00:28:54.000 They're using my office this Saturday to bring people out and door knock to help recruit more precinct committee men in.

00:28:59.000 We're going to make it happen.

00:29:01.000 I love that.

00:29:04.000 There's a lot of people out there that will just read for any company if the check clears.

00:29:08.000 I simply won't compromise our values here on this show, which is why I made the switch to UnderTech.

00:29:13.000 They're the only men's basic brand that is unapologetically Christian, pro-America, pro-Second Amendment, and battle-tested by special forces. 0.70

00:29:21.000 They put quality, comfort, and functionality first, integrating a quick release fly, a secret pocket, and an extra wide waistbrand into their design.

00:29:28.000 UnderTech uses top quality fabric that is super soft, antibacterial, anti-pilling, and moisture wicking.

00:29:34.000 UnderTach is durable, fade-resistant, and shrink-resistant.

00:29:37.000 Here's the best part.

00:29:38.000 They're about 30% less expensive than the competition, and they share your values.

00:29:43.000 I'm asking you to support this growing company today.

00:29:46.000 Right now, they're running a special for my listeners at getundertech.com.

00:30:03.000 That's getundertech.com.

00:30:05.000 Offer code Kirk.

00:30:09.000 Two great grassroots activists, Marissa Hamilton and Dan Farley, who are just in the weeds doing the right thing.

00:30:14.000 All of you guys should be doing this.

00:30:15.000 I know it's easier said than done.

00:30:16.000 How many hours do you dedicate a week, Marissa?

00:30:18.000 I do this full time.

00:30:19.000 I quit my job when I went to run for mayor in 2020, and I have not looked back.

00:30:23.000 Mayor Phoenix.

00:30:24.000 Yes.

00:30:25.000 The city is just deteriorating.

00:30:27.000 It's not as bad as San Francisco, but it's not what it should be.

00:30:30.000 You would have been a great mayor.

00:30:32.000 We even have police officers right now.

00:30:36.000 Scottsdale's nice.

00:30:37.000 It's deteriorating too, but Phoenix is actually not so nice anymore.

00:30:41.000 Dan, you've dedicated your life to this both of you guys.

00:30:43.000 You spent how many hours a week do you say 80 hours a week in activism?

00:30:45.000 Well, this week is definitely going to be 80 hours, maybe even more.

00:30:49.000 That's a lot.

00:30:50.000 It is.

00:30:50.000 But I'd say between 40 and 60 hours a week is what I've been doing for the last 28 months.

00:30:55.000 So let's talk about this.

00:30:56.000 So the Arizona legislature meets till when?

00:31:00.000 So technically, they're supposed to be in for at least 100 days.

00:31:05.000 In order for these election integrity laws to take effect, we need to end the session in around April.

00:31:10.000 The budget has to be done by June 30th, but the laws won't go into effect till 90 days after that.

00:31:15.000 So the goal is to have a very tightly run session and end it by April, May so we can get these laws in place before the primary.

00:31:23.000 And so, how do you guys balance the frustration with the Republican Party at times and then trying to work through the Republican Party?

00:31:30.000 I actually enjoy that balance because if someone is not going to come to the table and serve the grassroots, then I will make sure they get replaced.

00:31:39.000 That's how I balance it.

00:31:41.000 Well, I view the Democrats as puppets of the Soros communist technocrat agenda.

00:31:49.000 And they have to be beaten no matter what.

00:31:52.000 I view the Rhinos as more concerned about their own circular financial system to themselves at the expense of constituents.

00:32:03.000 So I think that they're just protecting their own livelihood.

00:32:06.000 And I think the other one is actually destroying our republic.

00:32:09.000 And I just see the rhinos as a speed bump in the way of trying to save our republic.

00:32:14.000 And the way that we're going to do that is just like you would any other toppled regime.

00:32:18.000 You get more and more people in and you get them empowered with tools and you just overwhelm them with people.

00:32:24.000 And that's exactly what we're doing.

00:32:26.000 Yeah.

00:32:26.000 We just flipped LD28 from a Never Trumper district.

00:32:29.000 What is it?

00:32:29.000 Legislative District 28?

00:32:31.000 Yeah, the chair.

00:32:32.000 So the chairs, basically, that was a Never Trumper district.

00:32:36.000 It's the Paradise Valley area, wealthiest area.

00:32:38.000 They killed the district.

00:32:39.000 They flipped it blue.

00:32:41.000 Dan and I worked together.

00:32:42.000 We sent out 3,000 handwritten postcards written by our grassroots activists, and we flipped it.

00:32:47.000 Well, let me ask you, though, was the RNC involved?

00:32:49.000 No.

00:32:50.000 No.

00:32:50.000 We did it ourselves.

00:32:51.000 We raised the money.

00:32:51.000 We sent out the postcards.

00:32:52.000 The grassroots did it.

00:32:53.000 Organized the volunteers.

00:32:54.000 We did it.

00:32:55.000 And that's an important lesson, everybody.

00:32:56.000 It's not going to be the Republican Party.

00:32:57.000 It's not going to be some person from D.C., Dem.

00:32:59.000 Yeah, what I'd like to add to that, well, that's a little premature.

00:33:02.000 We've had redistricting.

00:33:04.000 We haven't had elections, so she's still there.

00:33:05.000 But we did have grassroots had success in Legislative District 15, and we're working on 28, which is now the new four.

00:33:12.000 I'm running as LD4 chair to try and complete the transformation.

00:33:18.000 I'm sorry, what was the question that I was supposed to be answering?

00:33:21.000 Well, it's just kind of the general theme or sentiment just about like national not getting involved.

00:33:26.000 I just made a comment on how RNC and GOP is not doing this or are doing this.

00:33:32.000 Okay, so the gamesmanship of the establishment is they use proxy votes or paper precinct committee men in order to manipulate and have control of the party.

00:33:41.000 When you put live people there, that replaces the paper precinct committee men.

00:33:45.000 They try to run meetings long so you can't address bylaws to put restrictions on them.

00:33:50.000 That's so interesting.

00:33:51.000 They also try to get you to leave early so then there is not a quorum.

00:33:55.000 So those bylaws can't be passed.

00:33:57.000 So there are games.

00:33:58.000 It's so sneaky.

00:33:59.000 There's all types of gamesmanship that occurs.

00:34:02.000 So the objective is you bring on as many people as you can.

00:34:05.000 You educate them as quickly as you can and then you get them out.

00:34:09.000 And if they hold a legislative district and don't run meetings or have you involved, it's just a title anyway.

00:34:16.000 All the money runs through the state party.

00:34:18.000 They want access to the state party for the RNC money that runs through there so they can use it for themselves.

00:34:24.000 We're not giving it to them.

00:34:26.000 So if in the legislative districts, the funds are much smaller.

00:34:29.000 So as grassroots, if they won't do meetings and invite us, then we'll run meetings without them and they become irrelevant.

00:34:36.000 And that's a way we can solve this problem.

00:34:38.000 Marissa?

00:34:39.000 So we have...

00:34:40.000 Yes, we have two things coming up.

00:34:42.000 We have a rally against Mark Kelly.

00:34:44.000 Good.

00:34:45.000 He's got to go.

00:34:45.000 Sunday, we have RTS training.

00:34:47.000 Go to easyaz.org to sign up.

00:34:50.000 We will give you a rundown of the bills and we will teach you how to be effective so we get these bills through.

00:34:54.000 If you care about election integrity, if you care about parental rights, you need to get educated.

00:34:58.000 You need to get active.

00:34:59.000 And we have plenty of places to do it.

00:35:01.000 Websites to follow you guys?

00:35:03.000 Easyaz.org.

00:35:05.000 And Dan?

00:35:06.000 Americapac.org is who I work very closely with.

00:35:09.000 And then I would say AZgrassrootshub.com.

00:35:12.000 Marissa Hamilton, Dan Farley, you guys should be an inspiration to our listeners that anyone can step up and take back their country.

00:35:18.000 Citizenship is a beautiful thing.
