00:01:51.000But what if we look back and we realize we were just inches away from victory and that's when we decided to give up.
00:01:58.000Join us and thousands of American patriots for the summer convention that all are invited to.
00:02:06.000You're going to hear how we're going to win in 2024.
00:02:09.000With the biggest speakers in the movement, featuring President Donald J. Trump.
00:02:15.000We're going to fight and we're going to win.
00:02:17.000Charlie Kirk, Devaik Ramaswamy, Governor Christy Noah, Dr. Ben Carson, Steve Bannon, Candace Owens, Laura Trump, Senator Rick Scott, Congressman Matt Gates, Benny Johnson, Jack Posobiec, and more.
00:02:39.000June 14th through 16th, 2024 is our final battle in Detroit, Michigan.
00:02:45.000The great silent majority is rising like never before.
00:03:42.000And, you know, just to set the table a little bit, of course, we all know this is a sham prosecution.
00:03:48.000I think the jury instructions, the way in which the judge has actively promoted evidence that's bad for Trump and suppressed evidence that's good for Trump.
00:03:59.000The fact that his daughter has made millions of dollars off of this case, just sort of you go down the list, and this is obviously motivated by politics and not by justice.
00:04:07.000So, the question is, what do we do about it?
00:04:10.000And I think a lot of our voters, rightfully, are sick of people like me complaining about it and not using our office to actually do something.
00:04:17.000And so, you know, in the United States Senate, we're in the minority.
00:04:20.000So, Republicans don't have subpoena power.
00:04:23.000But what I wanted to do with this letter was really set the table and make it clear that the Judge Merchant needs to be investigated.
00:04:32.000And in fact, there's a good reason, a good amount of evidence to at least justify an investigation to see if there was any wrongdoing here.
00:04:39.000And then also make it clear that if there was actual wrongdoing here, then we're going to go after that wrongdoing the next time that we have the Department of Justice, which is hopefully in a few months with the Trump administration.
00:04:50.000We can't just sort of point at Mershon.
00:04:52.000We can't point at his daughter making millions of dollars, even as she fundraises off the case where her dad is presiding and throw her hands up and say, Well, this is corrupt.
00:05:06.000And I think it's the bare minimum of what people should expect of their elected leaders is that they use the authority granted by the Constitution to root out corruption and wrongdoing.
00:05:16.000And I think that if we do have that subpoena power next Congress, and if we do have the Department of Justice and the next administration, and I think we're going to have both, then we really need to use it to get to the bottom of this.
00:05:27.000It cannot be overstated, Charlie, how crazy it is that you have a person raising money off of a sham trial and her father is the presiding judge of that trial.
00:05:40.000So, JD, help me understand that this news that is coming out, and there's contradicting reports about whether or not the jury needs to be unanimous.
00:05:51.000It's like 4-4 when it comes to what charges proceed.
00:05:56.000I'm by no means a legal expert, but from what everybody is saying, it needs to be the Supreme Court has said it should be unanimous in every component.
00:06:15.000Yeah, Charlie, so I'm hardly an expert here, but I have followed this pretty closely, and I think I understand at least the controversy.
00:06:22.000So, if you remember, the basic background of this case is they're saying he committed a clerical error, which is at worse a misdemeanor.
00:06:30.000And I don't even buy the idea that he committed a clerical error, by the way, but they're saying he committed a clerical error that's a misdemeanor.
00:06:38.000Now, why are we having a felony trial then?
00:06:40.000Because they're saying that it was in the service of some other crime, whether that was influencing the election or something else.
00:06:47.000Now, the problem here for the prosecution, Charlie, as others have pointed out, they've not actually identified what the alleged crime, the underlying crime, is.
00:06:56.000And it can't really be election interference because the clerical error took place in 2017 after the election had already happened.
00:07:05.000So, they're kind of like throwing spaghetti against a wall here and saying, Well, it could be this underlying crime.
00:07:12.000There are like three different things that they're pointing to without providing evidence for any of them.
00:07:16.000And I think what they're trying to do, Charlie, is to say, Well, let's say you're a juror and you don't believe that there was, you know, you don't agree with your fellow jurors about which underlying crime was committed.
00:07:29.000That would normally lead to an acquittal.
00:07:32.000But what we're hearing from inside the courtroom is the judge is basically saying, so long as you agree that there could have potentially been some criminal violation, even if the jurors disagree about what that criminal violation was, then you should vote to convict Donald Trump.
00:07:47.000That would be a huge violation of his rights as an individual, and it would further solidify how much this is a political prosecution.
00:07:54.000Now, I will say, Charlie, that the, and I'm not going to defend this judge on anything.
00:07:59.000I've heard from folks inside the courtroom that we may be misunderstanding the jury instructions that were actually given.
00:08:07.000So I hope to God the judge did not give such a loaded and corrupt set of instructions.
00:08:12.000It wouldn't surprise me because he's obviously a political actor, but I've also heard some conflicting reports.
00:08:18.000So I got to be honest, I'm not totally sure what's going on inside that courtroom.
00:08:22.000So I want to transition to just some of the business of the Senate here.
00:08:27.000I know that we are not in the majority by any means.
00:08:32.000It was a very frustrating spring as more and more money was sent overseas at any clarity of where that money is going.
00:08:39.000You have been a hero when it comes to actually putting our country first in regards to the Ukraine situation.
00:08:45.000Is there a private acknowledgement amongst your colleagues in the Senate that Ukraine is not going to win this war?
00:08:52.000Has reality finally set in with U.S. Senate Republican colleagues?
00:08:58.000You know, Charlie, for some of them it has.
00:09:00.000And as gross as this sounds, that actually made them more willing to give more money to Ukraine.
00:09:05.000Something I definitely heard in the run-up to this vote, and you're right, I fought tooth and nail against sending more money to Ukraine, against sending with no strings attached, no oversight, no understanding of what it's being used on, just effectively a blank check to Ukraine.
00:09:26.000But what is crazy to me, Charlie, is that the closer it seems like Ukraine has gotten to being clear that they can't win the war, some of my colleagues are saying, well, let's write them a check so we don't get blamed for it.
00:09:38.000And what an abdication of leadership that is.
00:09:41.000You hear people saying, well, we know Ukraine can't win the war, but they might lose it more quickly if we don't write them another check.
00:09:47.000And I'm looking around, Charlie, saying, where are the statesmen, right?
00:09:50.000Where are the people saying that if the war cannot be won, shouldn't we be negotiating for peace?
00:09:56.000And shouldn't we be pursuing our interests as much as we can within the reality that we actually live in?
00:10:02.000Like, you cannot pursue America's interests if you live in a fantasy land where a country that's one fifth of the size of Russia is going to take hundreds of miles of territory back from the Russians when they're currently in a defensive posture everywhere.
00:10:16.000You don't have to think that's a good thing.
00:10:18.000You don't have to support the invasion.
00:10:53.000But the fact that it hasn't happened in three decades should really serve as a caution when we hear these people saying we must support the next foreign conflict when they haven't won one for at least 30 years.
00:11:04.000Very quickly, JD, there is some controversy and debate of whether or not we should try to go above and beyond to put Biden on the ballot in Ohio.
00:11:11.000I actually think if Biden is not on the ballot in Ohio, it actually might hurt Bernie Moreno's chances for us to beat Sherrod Brown.
00:11:23.000And by the way, it's divided a lot of very good people in the state of Ohio.
00:11:27.000My view on it is that you're exactly right, actually.
00:11:30.000Making sure there's a real presidential contest in Ohio, Trump will win by 10 points.
00:11:35.000But if Biden's not on the ballot, I think a lot of MAGA Republicans won't even show up to vote against him because they'll just say, well, my guy's going to win.
00:11:44.000But if they don't show up at all, then that's going to be really bad for Bernie Marino and some down-ticket congressional races.
00:11:50.000So, I think it's really important that we have a real presidential election in the state of Ohio.
00:11:55.000Now, I also think it's reasonable, by the way, Charlie, for us to say, look, the Democrats screwed this up.
00:12:00.000And so we should get something out of fixing the ballot mess that they created.
00:12:05.000What I would say we should get is to ban foreign money from coming into Ohio's elections, as you saw on some of the ballot issues in the last couple of summers.

00:14:37.000There's a new poll out, which, again, this is just one poll, and you have to take this as it happens, that shows the following: Biden and Trump tied in Virginia.
00:15:25.000RFK Jr. is running a campaign where he's trying to be everybody, everything to everybody across the board.
00:15:34.000I have said for quite some time that Donald Trump needs to do a come-home campaign for the Rogan bros.
00:15:43.000Now, to President Trump's great credit, the crypto announcement this last weekend goes a long way in winning over some of those 50 million crypto owners and 20 to 30 million Joe Rogan listening political potential voters.
00:16:02.000RFK Jr. has built his entire brand and then his campaign around one solitary issue, medical autonomy.
00:16:10.000He may be a tyrant in every other way, like all left-wing Democrats, but this is the Achilles heel of Trump right now, since low-information voters still think of Trump and lockdowns as synonymous, even though he left the decision up to the states.
00:16:25.000In fact, RFK's COVID stuff makes people envision him as a more moderate, libertarian-leaning guy.
00:16:59.000In fact, I know people in my circle that are not nearly as pro-life as I am who were deeply bothered by RFK's comments.
00:17:08.000Very bothered by RFK's sick and demented and twisted moral views when it comes to abortion.
00:17:16.000Donald Trump has to do a little bit more to demonstrate that the demographic that is worried about the vaccine, which I am a medical freedom voter, and I have full trust in Trump.
00:17:32.000I have full trust because I believe Donald Trump got gamed by Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Moderna, Johnson and Johnson.
00:17:40.000And understand that before COVID, some of you might have been more enlightened.
00:17:47.000Some of you might have been more up to speed on this.
00:17:51.000But before COVID, we trusted a lot of what these pharmaceutical companies would say.
00:17:57.000We would never think that Pfizer and Moderna and Johnson and Johnson would test out the vaccine on eight lab rats, not on humans, that they would falsify clinical trials, that they would lie about pericarditis and myocarditis, that they would fabricate data when it came to the MRNA gene-altering aspects of that.
00:18:19.000RFK is trying to peel away from Donald Trump support when it comes to people that were upset with COVID.
00:18:26.000Just yesterday, I had lunch with two individuals, one that said, I can't vote for Trump.
00:18:40.000Donald Trump left it up to the states.
00:18:42.000But I think we have to be intellectually honest that there was a period of time where the administrative state ascended in a point of crisis and our guard was a little down.
00:18:53.000It was Donald Trump who wanted to open up the economy.
00:18:56.000It was Donald Trump who was pushing treatments very early on.
00:19:04.000That is where your criticism should be.
00:19:06.000And COVID was a once-in-a-generation, once in American history event, and I think lessons have really been learned and internalized from that.
00:19:14.000It was Trump who wanted to open the economy, who did not want the cure to be worse than the disease.
00:19:32.000Is college-educated white men who listen to podcasts, who work out a lot, own cryptocurrency, are a little bit libertarian on drug policy, hate Biden, and they need to be given a reason to vote for Trump.

00:21:14.000So it all started a couple years ago when students decided to look me up on social media and there they found things I don't talk about in class.
00:21:22.000They discovered my Christian conservative views and took issues to them.
00:21:26.000They sent in several posts of mine from Instagram to the school district.
00:21:32.000And like we're seeing many schools do today, they immediately sided with the students on this.
00:21:36.000They began investigating, called me in and decided that my Christian conservative views that I'm outspoken about on social media were not okay, but that I was going to barely be allowed to come back to work.
00:21:50.000However, now with a plan of assistance and directives, and that's when I had these various transgender directives placed on me.
00:21:57.000I was asked to, going forward, now call students by their preferred pronoun or gender, withhold that information from their parents, and also allow transgenders in my girls' locker room.
00:22:19.000And I took off on stress leave for three months to decide what to do because essentially I had three options, right?
00:22:26.000Put my head in the sand and follow these directives to save my salary, resign and just walk away, which would have done no one good, or speak up, take a bold stand and speak up and say, I cannot comply with these things because they go against my beliefs.
00:22:41.000And so in the end, that is clearly what the Lord led me to do.
00:24:22.000And she's not going to lie to herself.
00:24:24.000And so, you know, we took this case on with the goal of trying to set some legal precedent.
00:24:32.000Instead, they came back and offered a financial settlement, which frankly is often far better than even getting legal precedent because this shows that the school district and school districts across the country should really count the cost.
00:24:47.000If they're going to terminate a teacher for improper reasons under these circumstances, then it's going to come out of their pocketbook.
00:24:53.000Now, one thing that's important here is that what the school district effectively was saying, and if we allowed this to stand, and if Jessica didn't stand up to this, their position is that if you're a Christian teacher and you stand upon your traditional Christian biblical worldview and values, you're not qualified to teach.
00:25:14.000So you either have to give those up in order to teach in the public school system, or you need to quit or you're going to be terminated.
00:25:23.000And that's not right because that's not what the law is because the law allows accommodations to be made.
00:25:29.000And here in California, we've gotten so far left when it comes to these transgender issues that it has become very difficult for teachers.
00:25:38.000So we launched with Jessica this campaign, a teachers don't lie.
00:25:45.000And so folks can go to teachersdon'tlie.com.
00:25:48.000And we really appreciate you having us on here because what we want to do is we want to take this out.
00:25:52.000We want teachers across the country who are in the same circumstance as Jessica to realize that they have someone to come back them up.
00:26:01.000We will, as a legal organization, fight for them.
00:26:04.000We can do what we've done for Jessica, Lord willing.
00:26:07.000Interestingly, Charlie, when we launch this, not only are we getting other teachers who are contacting us, which by the way, we've had over 100 inquiries since this case was announced a week ago.
00:26:20.000We have prison workers who are guards who are women who are being forced to be in front of a transgendered biological male when they need to be inspected, so to speak, and they have to undress.
00:26:39.000And the women are being forced by California policy to be a part of that when they're saying, I've got an objection to that.
00:26:47.000So we're finding this whole transgender issue is beyond schools, of course.
00:26:55.000We're going to fight for religious accommodations for Christians and say, just because you're a Christian doesn't mean that you cannot work in the public arena.
00:27:28.000I was in a really scary situation when I sat in on these several meetings that the district called me into, literally shaking in my chair.
00:27:38.000And I really had to check my fear is what I say, and make sure that even though I was scared about the situation I was in and what could come of it, that my fear of the Lord came above it all, because we know that fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.
00:27:54.000And I needed wisdom in this situation to make the right choice.
00:27:59.000I've always been someone who's always just wanted to do the right thing and make the right choice.
00:28:04.000And I want it to be the right thing and the right choice in God's eyes, not man's.
00:28:08.000And I had to, again, remind myself, make my decision based on fear of the Lord and make my decision to please him and not man.
00:28:19.000And, you know, sitting in front of all those higher ups of mine, I knew what they wanted me to do because they were putting the pressure on.
00:28:30.000They wanted to see me just say, sure, I'll do whatever you want me to do.
00:28:35.000But I knew that this was also just going to be the beginning of their asks and things were just going to get worse.
00:28:41.000So I knew I had to hold the line right then and there and that God would provide.
00:28:47.000Yes, the school district might all these years have paid me my paycheck, but ultimately he's my provider.
00:28:54.000And this is the greatest way I've ever put my faith into action.
00:28:58.000And I can just say so confidently that it's the best thing probably that I've ever done because I've gotten to see the Lord in ways I've never seen him before.
00:29:08.000The way he has protected and provided and blessed, it wouldn't have happened if I hadn't have taken this stand.
00:29:15.000Jessica, do you hope more teachers and more people take similar stands and start to speak out?
00:29:22.000It's been for the last two years that I've walked through this because I know there's power in my one voice, but I know that to make a real change and a real difference, it's going to take a good number of us rising up and holding the line for truth and, you know, putting our trust and fear in God alone, not government.
00:30:05.000And you can go to that and you can contact us.
00:30:08.000Jessica is working with us now to be able to help counsel other teachers, just give them courage and encouragement to be able to do what they're doing.
00:30:18.000And anybody else, if you have an inquiry that you want to contact us because you're faced with something similar, give us contact at our website, which is faith-freedom.com.
00:30:33.000You can go to faith-freedom.com and you can click on a link and you can send your inquiry to us and be happy to look into it and speak with you.
00:32:19.000Amy Walter from the Cook Political Report says, Joe Biden, to be losing to Donald Trump by this margin is unsustainable at this point for any incumbent.
00:32:27.000They are about to do something desperate, unprecedented, sneaky, illegal.
00:32:35.000There is something looming around the corner.
00:32:38.000Write it down, because as we say, only the paranoid survive.
00:32:45.000You know, look, we've seen in the past, Mika, that candidates who are seen as maybe not as strong on the economy ultimately win an election, like, say, Barack Obama in 2012.
00:32:57.000But to be losing by this margin, that is unsustainable at this point for an incumbent.
00:33:13.000We're seeing this with the doors we are knocking on at Turning Point Action, the conversations that we are having, the communities that we are organizing.
00:33:21.000People that would not necessarily fit into the Republican mold.
00:33:27.000Because Donald Trump represents a response to cheap money, open borders, cheap money, and open borders.
00:33:35.000There is a widespread Western world revolt against the ruling class in Argentina, in the Netherlands.
00:33:46.000You're going to see it also, by the way, in the July 4th United Kingdom elections, where Labor, very left-wing, they are the populist movement because the Tories have had power for about 12 years and they are about to get significantly displaced.
00:34:34.000He goes to the Bronx and says, I'm better than Joe Biden.
00:34:38.000I'm trying to build a party that's inclusive of you.
00:34:41.000I think all the places he's going, they are striking this confident pose, and it's a campaign unlike we've seen from other Republican candidates.
00:34:49.000I think it's pretty confident, and they know they know they're winning, and they're trying to take advantage of that position.
00:34:54.000You see, this is the great reset versus the constitutional reset.
