00:02:38.000 What if I told you that there is a mini-presidential race that is happening right now?
00:02:44.000 Many of you are wondering, what can I do to avenge what happened to Donald Trump?
00:02:49.000 What can I do to get in on the fight?
00:02:52.000 What if I told you that in the next three weeks, the largest, most populated state in the country has an election.
00:03:02.000 And actually, voting has already begun where the Democrats are beyond nervous.
00:03:09.000 Now, we've been on this for many months now.
00:03:13.000 In fact, I spoke at Jack Hibbs Church back in January, right, as Joe Biden took power.
00:03:20.000 And I told everyone to focus on the recall.
00:03:23.000 If you could recall Gavin Newsom, everything can change.
00:03:27.000 And I'm trying to see here, what was the date of the French laundry dinner?
00:03:32.000 I'm trying to see what that was.
00:03:35.000 That was December.
00:03:36.000 Yeah, that's what changed the entire trajectory of the recall effort.
00:03:42.000 And as it stands today, according to the latest polls, and I'm reading from a con artist's website, not a good guy.
00:03:51.000 He was so wrong about the Trump thing, but he is the only one that's actually aggregating polls.
00:03:55.000 Unless real clear politics is, I'm not sure.
00:03:58.000 538.
00:03:59.000 I got to give credit to this.
00:04:00.000 Latest polls of the California recall election.
00:04:04.000 It's a statistical tie to keep or remove Gavin Newsom.
00:04:10.000 Now, I've gone through this many times, and I'm going to go through it again.
00:04:15.000 That how it works in California is the yes-no question: yes, recall, no recall.
00:04:22.000 If it's yes, recall, then it goes to the next question.
00:04:25.000 Whoever gets a plurality of those votes becomes governor.
00:04:29.000 So, to give you an idea of the polling, July 14th, a month ago, 53% of California voters wanted to keep Gavin Newsom.
00:04:45.000 Now, 48% of voters want to keep Gavin Newsome.
00:04:48.000 The polls are in a statistical tie, everybody.
00:04:53.000 And as Nate Silver rates it, the A polls have it within one or two points, or three points.
00:05:04.000 In fact, the Survey USA poll, get this: the Survey USA poll, which Nate Silver calls an A poll, has Gavin Newsom losing the recall by nine points.
00:05:18.000 Democrats are freaking out because, in the largest, most populated state in the country, a remnant of voters that decided not to move and hold the line are on the precipice of shocking the world and the wonder boy, the anointed one, the boy king with the slicked back hair of the Swawel Pelosi, Harris, boxer, Feinstein regime.
00:05:43.000 California, that looked like an impenetrable object.
00:05:47.000 California, it looked untouchable.
00:05:49.000 You might as well colonize Neptune, we were told.
00:05:51.000 That's never going to turn.
00:05:53.000 You can't do it.
00:05:54.000 Stop wasting your time.
00:05:56.000 It's too big of a project.
00:05:57.000 Too big, too vast.
00:05:59.000 Give up.
00:06:00.000 The drumbeat of cynicism set in and people started to leave to Arizona.
00:06:05.000 Thanks, thanks a lot.
00:06:06.000 Never should have come there.
00:06:08.000 To Texas, to Tennessee, Nevada, Idaho.
00:06:14.000 But slowly and surely, I can tell you, all of a sudden, that remnant got louder and expanded.
00:06:21.000 And pastors across the great state of California to Jack Kibbs, to Rob McCoy, to James Cadiz, and Joe Pettick, and John Randall, and Greg Denham, and Pastor Juergen, and Greg Farrington, and Mike McClure mobilized their congregations to get signatures in support of the recall of Gavin Newsom.
00:06:44.000 Now, we were told at first the recall is never going to happen.
00:06:46.000 They're not going to get the signatures.
00:06:48.000 And they did.
00:06:49.000 We were told that Gavin Newsom was going to be listed as a Democrat on the ballot, and he isn't.
00:06:55.000 Instead, it's yes, no, Gavin Newsom.
00:06:58.000 Most people don't even know if he's a Democrat or Republican.
00:07:00.000 Most people in California don't even know him, a state of 35 million people.
00:07:04.000 I guarantee you that a lot of Californians can't pick him out of a lineup.
00:07:09.000 So as it stands today, the Democrat Party is deploying tens of millions of dollars of resources weekly to try to save a governor's race in the bluest state in the country, where the vice president is from, the Speaker of the House is from, Adam Schiff is from, the head of the House Intelligence Committee.
00:07:26.000 How did this happen?
00:07:28.000 It happened because people refused to give up.
00:07:31.000 And also, there is a viable alternative.
00:07:35.000 As I mentioned, I did five speaking events in California the last 24 hours.
00:07:39.000 I have not seen enthusiasm and energy like this since the Tea Party movement or since the Trump movement.
00:07:44.000 People of all different stripes and backgrounds, different languages even, are uniting and saying, we have to remove this man.
00:07:52.000 And what is Gavin Newsom's great pitch to the people of California?
00:07:57.000 What is his sales pitch?
00:07:58.000 Now, I want to get this tape, Connor, if you could get it.
00:08:01.000 He blows up at an editorial board meeting and the newspaper meeting saying, hey, it's a fact.
00:08:07.000 It's better here in California than in Texas.
00:08:10.000 He gets very angry.
00:08:12.000 And I can tell you right now, the humiliation and the debacle of what just happened in Kabul is not doing the Democrats any favors right now.
00:08:20.000 It is not doing the Democrats any favors in the recall election in California.
00:08:23.000 Now, maybe you're listening right now in Leeds, North Dakota.
00:08:26.000 Maybe you're listening right now, halfway across the country in Atlanta or Dallas.
00:08:31.000 And you say, Charlie, what does the California recall have to do with me?
00:08:34.000 Number one, it's three weeks away to send a political shockwave to Nancy Pelosi, Kamala Harris, Adam Schiff, Barbara Boxer, Diane Feinstein, and the entire ruling class degenerate elite that have been doing nothing but using and abusing you, mandating your children wearing masks with vaccines, keeping the borders wide open and humiliating us in Kabul.
00:08:52.000 You can set a shockwave to them that the people are still in charge of the nation.
00:08:55.000 Number two, you want to talk about all of a sudden building towards 2022.
00:09:02.000 A Republican governor in California would be a very good start for that.
00:09:06.000 Not to mention, the maps are not yet drawn in California for the congressional seats.
00:09:13.000 We can get a double fact check on that, but I don't think they've been approved.
00:09:17.000 And do you know they have to be signed off by the governor?
00:09:21.000 You want to take back the House of Representatives, everybody?
00:09:23.000 You want to retire Nancy Pelosi? 1.00
00:09:26.000 Now, California might have an independent maps commission.
00:09:29.000 I doubt they do.
00:09:30.000 I bet it's done all through some sort of a cartel or a collusion network because they always thought they were going to be in control.
00:09:37.000 In most states, though, they have sort of a committee that does that.
00:09:42.000 In 2018, Newsom won a landslide based on his support amongst Hispanics.
00:09:47.000 Today, Hispanics in the Emerson poll support the recall by 54% to 41%.
00:09:54.000 And it's an August 14th article, so it could be even higher now as now children are getting re-locked down.
00:10:01.000 They are getting mandated with masks again, and they have to have vaccines.
00:10:08.000 I can tell you now that when the ruling class provokes you so hard, they poke you in the eye.
00:10:17.000 They better expect a response, and they never expected this.
00:10:20.000 Gavin Newsom is not sleeping well.
00:10:22.000 In fact, I have it on very exclusive information.
00:10:26.000 Do you know where Gavin Newsom was for a couple days in July vacationing in the hills of Montana?
00:10:33.000 I could tell you where, but I won't tell you where because I have people told me exactly where he was.
00:10:37.000 Why was Gavin Newsom in Montana while his state was literally burning?
00:10:41.000 While the Delta variant was raging, while the southern border was open, Gavin Newsom was vacationing in Montana when your children couldn't even leave the community.
00:10:53.000 That's who Gavin Newsom is.
00:10:54.000 He's the same sort of arrogant, he's a creature of the arrogant attitude that says, we are going to mandate the vaccine for Marines, but not for White House staff.
00:11:06.000 How many years have I been telling you about Relief Factor?
00:11:08.000 A lot.
00:11:09.000 Truth is, I know millions of people.
00:11:11.000 In fact, some people say over 100 million people are struggling with some kind of pain, maybe from exercise or just getting older.
00:11:17.000 Now, Pete and Seth Talbot, they are on a mission.
00:11:19.000 You rarely see this kind of focus and commitment.
00:11:21.000 They recently shared with me that they are doubling down and want to literally double their total number of happy customers in the next year.
00:11:27.000 And I believe they'll do it.
00:11:28.000 So here's the deal.
00:11:29.000 Go to relieffactor.com.
00:11:31.000 That's relieffactor.com or call 800-500-8384.
00:11:34.000 People ask me, tell me why Relief Factor is so successful in lowering or eliminating pain.
00:11:39.000 I'm often asked that question.
00:11:40.000 So maybe you want to be able to do cartwheels or be able to do backflips like Producer Andrew.
00:11:45.000 Maybe you want to be able to run a marathon, swim underwater, go scuba diving, jump out of an airplane, but maybe it's your knee pain, back pain, joint pain, whatever pain it might be.
00:11:53.000 Maybe Relief Factor is for you.

00:11:58.000 Check it out, relieffactor.com.
00:12:04.000 When you look at all these women that have marched, something like 2 million women, Donald Trump has probably gotten more obese women off the couch and in the streets working out than Michelle Obama did in eight years. 1.00
00:12:19.000 Do you think Larry Elder should be the next governor of California?
00:12:23.000 I think Larry Elder, with tens of thousands of hours on the air, entertaining and thought-provoking.
00:12:33.000 If that's the most entertaining, that's disgusting. 0.95
00:12:36.000 What he just said is disgusting. 0.70
00:12:38.000 Yeah, it's so serious, Jim Acosta.
00:12:39.000 We must take ourselves so seriously.
00:12:40.000 He's a radio talk show host, okay?
00:12:43.000 And by the way, it's hilarious.
00:12:45.000 You ever see those women's march? 0.57
00:12:46.000 Woo! 0.99
00:12:48.000 I remember when the Democrats used to be all into health and veganism and fitness.
00:12:53.000 Not anymore.
00:12:55.000 Larry Elder has the Democrats so worried that they now have to all of a sudden become offended at jokes.
00:13:02.000 How dare Larry Elder make fun of people?
00:13:05.000 Now, Larry Elder really has got the California Democrats in a confusing state.
00:13:13.000 I want to say this.
00:13:14.000 For all the other Republicans that are in the race, drop out immediately, consolidate behind Larry Elder, and get all your support behind him.
00:13:21.000 Only Larry can win this race.
00:13:22.000 There is no other way.
00:13:23.000 I just traveled to the state.
00:13:24.000 We did five events.
00:13:26.000 No one else has any shot.
00:13:27.000 Okay.
00:13:27.000 There's some really good people running, phenomenal people, and I wish them well.
00:13:31.000 But I would hate to have a Democrat who this Path Wreath guy, whatever his name is, Kevin Pathrith or whatever, edge out Larry Elder because every Republican split the vote around 7% to 8%.
00:13:44.000 Larry Elder's the man, and he's a friend of mine, and I'm backing him proudly.
00:13:49.000 Larry Elder getting into this race has confused Democrats.
00:13:54.000 What's a, wait, what's a black man being a Republican? 0.90
00:13:57.000 No, we control black people in the Democrat Party. 0.68
00:14:00.000 You're trying to tell me that there's a free-thinking conservative out there.
00:14:04.000 And the Los Angeles Times, I just love this.
00:14:09.000 They've really shown, they're really showing how worried they are.
00:14:16.000 Erica D. Smith.
00:14:18.000 Now I love the name Erica, I have to say.
00:14:20.000 But this person does shame to a great name. 0.93
00:14:25.000 Erica D. Smith wrote for the Los Angeles Times column, Larry Elder is the black face of white supremacy. 0.94
00:14:36.000 You've been warned. 0.64
00:14:37.000 You hear that? 0.98
00:14:39.000 She's saying Larry Elder has both black face and he's a white supremacist as a black person. 0.72
00:14:45.000 Can you believe the Los Angeles Times published this? 0.67
00:14:48.000 This is something that like a 19-year-old blogger at Wellesley College would write.
00:14:55.000 No, this is the Los Angeles Times.
00:14:57.000 I'm going to go through this piece because it's so interesting. 0.65
00:15:01.000 Larry Elder smiled the smug smile of a black conservative. 1.00
00:15:04.000 Hold on a second.
00:15:06.000 What kind of writing prose is this?
00:15:10.000 Do you not speak English?
00:15:12.000 Larry Elder smiled the smug smile.
00:15:15.000 You could just say Larry Elder smiled smugly.
00:15:19.000 Who's the copy editor of this? 0.99
00:15:22.000 It's like the editor is dumb and the writer is dumb, anyway, of a black conservative who could very well be liberal California's next governor. 0.99
00:15:30.000 Well, at least she tells the truth and she opens the statement of why she's losing her mind. 0.99
00:15:37.000 Quote, where do you start with the damage Gavin Newsom has done to the state we both love?
00:15:40.000 Larry Elder asks.
00:15:41.000 He leaned forward and gazed across the room of white Republicans.
00:15:44.000 Yeah, we hate those people who had come to hear him speak in Orange County.
00:15:49.000 Rising crime, it's because of this phony narrative that the police are engaging in systemic racism and cops are being pulled back.
00:15:55.000 When you reduce the possibility of a bad guy getting caught, getting convicted, and getting incarcerated, guess what?
00:15:59.000 Crime goes up.
00:16:00.000 Then another smile, this one even more smug than the last.
00:16:04.000 Can you say, duh?
00:16:06.000 You see, Erica D. Smith, she's never met a black conservative. 0.81
00:16:09.000 She's a very fragile person.
00:16:11.000 You read her Twitter profile.
00:16:13.000 She's looking out the window, gazing into the sky, as Mao Se Tung did after he sent the 12th millionth person to their death. 0.97
00:16:21.000 And she puts in her Twitter bio, from Ohio, proud Californian by choice, as she gazes into the heavens of how she dreams of killing white Republicans. 0.98
00:16:30.000 I'm kidding. 0.99
00:16:31.000 I won't lie, she writes. 0.97
00:16:33.000 Few things infuriate me more than watching a black person use willful blindness and cherry-pick facts to make overly simplistic arguments that whitewash the complex problems that come with being black in America. 1.00
00:16:47.000 Oh, you mean like writing garbage in the LA Times? 0.99
00:16:50.000 You're so oppressed that you're able to get propaganda published in the third largest newspaper in the country. 0.97
00:16:56.000 Spare me the Selma speech, okay?
00:17:00.000 And throughout his career, and as a radio host, as a talking head for Fox News, yeah, we hate him.
00:17:06.000 And now as a gubernatorial candidate, Elder has made a point of doing just that, usually with just a lot of taunting and toddler-like name-calling of his ideological enemies in the process.
00:17:15.000 Oh, really?
00:17:16.000 Name-calling. 0.96
00:17:17.000 The name of your entire article is you're calling a black person a white supremacist. 0.57
00:17:21.000 And Larry Elder's the name caller. 0.93
00:17:23.000 You know what drives the left crazier than anything else? 0.99
00:17:26.000 A black conservative they can't control. 1.00
00:17:30.000 They go wild. 0.98
00:17:34.000 Did you get hit with a big tax bill you weren't expecting?
00:17:37.000 With rates being very low and home equity being high, perfect time to refinance.
00:17:40.000 Look, we're all about refinancing all this.
00:17:42.000 Here's the long and short of it: you should not be giving business to bad companies.
00:17:47.000 So if you're using Goldman Sachs, bad company.
00:17:50.000 Wells Fargo, bad company.
00:17:52.000 JP Morgan, bad company.
00:17:54.000 All these companies, they love BLM.
00:17:57.000 They hate America.
00:17:58.000 And quite honestly, if you're listening to this program, they hate you.
00:18:02.000 And so if you want to take out a loan, here's what I'm going to tell you: what to do.
00:18:05.000 Maybe you're a new family.
00:18:07.000 You're like, I want to buy a house and it's my dream house and I want to take out a loan.
00:18:11.000 The good news is that there are partners called Andrew and Todd, Andrew Del Rey and Todd of Akian, andrewandTodd.com.
00:18:18.000 Just save that in your notes, by the way.
00:18:19.000 Just save it in the notes of your phone because you might need it.
00:18:22.000 Like, I don't need it.
00:18:23.000 My banker at Goldman Sachs is just fine, or my banker at Bank of America is just fine.
00:18:28.000 Like, okay.
00:18:29.000 Then when you go take that loan and you go sign those 95,000 pieces of paper they give you, you know what you're really signing?
00:18:36.000 You're signing contribution forms to BLM Incorporated.
00:18:39.000 That's what you're doing.
00:18:40.000 When you go take out a loan with Chase, when you go take out a loan with Wells Fargo, you might as well go give the money to Joe Biden.
00:18:48.000 So when you go to DC next and you go travel, maybe with your family, why don't you just get a cashier's check and drop it off at the White House entrance? 0.95
00:18:56.000 That's what you're doing when you bank with these woke losers at Wells Fargo. 0.69
00:19:02.000 So take out a loan with the good guys. 0.89
00:19:03.000 It's Andrew and Todd.
00:19:04.000 Look, they're just great people.
00:19:05.000 They're Christians.
00:19:06.000 They love the Lord.
00:19:07.000 They love America.
00:19:08.000 And you call them up and just say, I want to speak to Andrew and Todd.
00:19:12.000 That's all you have to say.
00:19:13.000 Charlie Kirk sent me.
00:19:15.000 And their number is 888-888-1172.
00:19:18.000 That's AndrewandTodd.com, AndrewandTodd.com, 888, 888, 1172.
00:19:23.000 You go to AndrewandTodd.com, 888, 8888, 1172, and say, you should make a vow to yourself.
00:19:28.000 Just make a promise to yourself.
00:19:30.000 I refuse to fund companies that hate America.
00:19:33.000 I refuse to fund companies that hate America.
00:19:36.000 And you have a choice.
00:19:37.000 If you want to take out a loan or just explore the idea of refinancing, AndrewandTodd.com, call 888, 888, 1172.
00:19:46.000 I go out to eat with these guys.
00:19:48.000 They're terrific.
00:19:49.000 They're good people.
00:19:50.000 AndrewNTodd.com.
00:19:55.000 Larry Elder has Democrats scrambling in California.
00:19:59.000 Democrats don't know how to play defense.
00:20:02.000 They do not know how to play defense.
00:20:06.000 And they're really bad at it.
00:20:08.000 This woman, Erica D. Smith, I'm going to continue with her article.
00:20:12.000 The title of the article, Larry Elder is the Black Face of White Supremacy.
00:20:18.000 You've been warned.
00:20:21.000 She continues writing, and throughout Larry's career as a radio host, we read this part, Talking Head, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:20:28.000 Okay.
00:20:29.000 Like a lot of black people, though, I've learned that it's best often just to ignore people like Elder. 1.00
00:20:34.000 People who are, as my dad used to say, skin folk, but not necessary kinfolk. 0.98
00:20:41.000 Unbelievably racist.
00:20:44.000 That's certainly how LA's black and politically powerful have tried to deal with him over the years. 0.94
00:20:49.000 As the Time once wrote, Maxine Waters refused to be a guest on Elder's show because, quote, why would she boost the ratings of a man who ridicules her by mixing a recording of her barking dog over her sound bites?
00:21:03.000 Well, how could you tell the difference between the barking dog and Maxine Waters?
00:21:07.000 That's the real question.
00:21:11.000 I mean, why would you need to mix them?
00:21:12.000 They're indecipherable.
00:21:15.000 But with polls showing that nearly half of likely voters support recalling Newsom and that Elder is in the lead to replace him, that's the reason they're writing this. 0.94
00:21:24.000 Larry Elder is a white supremacist.
00:21:26.000 Larry Elder is Nathan Bedford Forrest.
00:21:32.000 Larry Elder is John C. Calhoun. 0.97
00:21:34.000 He is the worst person ever to exist.
00:21:38.000 Don't believe me? 1.00
00:21:38.000 Look at him. 1.00
00:21:39.000 He's black as a white supremacist. 1.00
00:21:43.000 He's in the lead to replace him. 0.99
00:21:44.000 This is in the Los Angeles Times.
00:21:46.000 I was going to reiterate that.
00:21:47.000 This is not some sort of weirdo blog. 0.99
00:21:49.000 The LA Times published this garbage. 0.98
00:21:52.000 He is in the lead to replace him. 1.00
00:21:55.000 Ignoring the self-proclaimed sage from South Central LA is no longer a viable strategy, particularly for black people.
00:22:03.000 So let me tell you what they're going to do now.
00:22:05.000 All of the press, including CNN, is attacking Elder out of control right now.
00:22:10.000 It's only going to help him because the recall effort is a name ID effort.
00:22:14.000 This is going to boost Larry by eight to 10 points.
00:22:18.000 I'm telling you right now, the people that already support Larry are not going to not support him because he says that Donald Trump is mobilizing obese liberals to go for a walk in the female march.
00:22:27.000 That's not going to be a deal breaker for them, trust me.
00:22:30.000 Especially a radio talk show guy.
00:22:33.000 Melina Abdullah, co-founder of BLM Los Angeles, the pseudo-domestic terror organization, says, quote, he is a danger, a clear and present danger.
00:22:44.000 Ooh, I liked Larry more.
00:22:45.000 The more I read this article, electelder.com, everybody.
00:22:49.000 It's not just that Elder would be a Trump fanboy Republican trying to run a state dominated by Democrats, or that he has zero experience in elected office and clearly doesn't have the temperament for government, governance, whatever that means.
00:23:03.000 It's that perhaps out of spite or perhaps out of an insatiable need for attention, Elder opposes every single public policy idea that's supported by black people to help black people.
00:23:13.000 Oh, really?
00:23:14.000 How about school choice?
00:23:15.000 Larry Elder stands for that.
00:23:16.000 Do you stand for that, Erica D. Smith?
00:23:19.000 Larry Elder stands for more police on streets.
00:23:21.000 Do you know that that's actually what black people want?
00:23:23.000 Or are you too busy living in a white neighborhood, Erica D. Smith?
00:23:27.000 Erica D. Smith continues in the Los Angeles Times and says, this has been true for decades, but it's particularly problematic given the racial reckoning following the murder of George Floyd.
00:23:36.000 Ah, yes.
00:23:36.000 Floyd Apalooza, let us honor St. George again.
00:23:39.000 We haven't changed our country enough since then.
00:23:43.000 She writes, quote, we have been having a series of uncomfortable discussions about systemic racism in its institutions across the state, said State Senator Sidney Calmarga, quote, and about how to really peel back the layers of ignorance and ineptitude so that we can deal with them in very real ways.
00:24:01.000 How about, here's one way to end systemic racism, which doesn't exist.
00:24:04.000 Why don't you make Maxine Waters live in her district? 1.00
00:24:08.000 That would be a start.
00:24:09.000 How about you go look into Maxine Waters' insider financial dealings?
00:24:13.000 Do you think that black people are benefiting from the leadership of Maxine Waters? 0.98
00:24:18.000 Larry Elder is someone who just fundamentally doesn't believe that systemic racism exists. 0.73
00:24:22.000 I just want to say, Larry is black.
00:24:24.000 He grew up in South Central LA. 0.89
00:24:27.000 I thought you were supposed to listen to black voices. 0.63
00:24:30.000 I thought that we have to listen to the experience of people whose skin color has melanin content in them.
00:24:38.000 She writes, Elder scoffs at the many efforts to reform the criminal justice system and to root out racial bias in policing by requiring more transparency and accountability from officers.
00:24:48.000 Instead, he keeps trotting out statistics that purport to show that blacks are particularly prone to murdering one another. 0.92
00:24:55.000 They are. 0.95
00:24:59.000 I guess she's never come across the statistical information that black on black crime is the leading cause of death in urban America.
00:25:07.000 Not outside, let me, I don't want to get fact-checked on this, leading cause of death as it comes to as it comes to violent crime.
00:25:17.000 Okay, it's not police on blacks, it's not white on blacks, not Asian on blacks. 0.52
00:25:22.000 I think that should satisfy the apparatchiks.
00:25:26.000 She writes, Larry Elder boldly said, Do we still have the phenomenon where a young black man is eight more times likely to be killed by another black man than a young white man?
00:25:35.000 If the answer to those series of questions is yes, I submit to you that systemic racism is not the problem, which is true.
00:25:40.000 Elder mocks critical race theory, though I'm not sure he understands what it actually is.
00:25:44.000 That doesn't bode well for ethnic studies in California.
00:25:46.000 So just so you know what ethnic studies is in California, can we get that exact article, Connor, where they're telling students that they have to pray to the Aztec god of child sacrifice?
00:25:55.000 No, that's a real thing.
00:25:57.000 Gavin Newsom, who, by the way, Gavin Newsom also signed a House bill that decriminalized pedophilia.
00:26:04.000 Erica D. Smith, big Gavin Newsom fan.
00:26:06.000 I bet Erica D. Smith was applauding at the decriminalization of pedophilia.
00:26:12.000 And Los Angeles Times, full air cover.
00:26:17.000 The cultural studies curriculum that she's talking about in California that Larry Elder will remove, hopefully, is, I think we have the article right here from CharlieKirk.com.
00:26:28.000 California public school children could be forced to sing by teachers to the Aztec God of Human Sacrifice, reported by Christopher Ruffo.
00:26:39.000 The California Education Department voted to approve ethnic studies curriculum that advocates for the decolonization of American society and, quote, elevates Aztec religious symbolism, and quote, seeks to extend the left's cultural dominance of California's public education system.
00:26:59.000 It includes students will chant to the gods of Q et al. and Julietso Puketel and Jip Tuquek, seeking healing epistemologies and a revolutionary spirit.
00:27:15.000 Julitza Piquetcal is particular is the Aztec deity of war and inspired hundreds of thousands of human sacrifices during Aztec rule.
00:27:28.000 Finally, the chance comes to the climax with the request for liberation, transformation, decolonization, after which students are forced to shout, punch a bear, punch a bear, punch a bear, in pursuit of ultimate critical consciousness.
00:27:49.000 That's what Erica Smith is talking about in this article where it comes to ethnic studies in California, just so you're clear.
00:27:56.000 If Larry Elder is elected, the task force studying reparations for black Californians would be toast.
00:28:03.000 Where do I support this wonderful man?
00:28:06.000 ElectElder.com.
00:28:08.000 And as would yet unsigned bills to allow police officers to be decertified for misconduct, conduct and support community-based alternatives to 911.
00:28:16.000 Oh, you mean abolishing the police?
00:28:18.000 Community-based alternatives to 9-1-1.
00:28:21.000 You mean like that?
00:28:22.000 Just don't interrupt the knife fights between the two young teenagers.
00:28:26.000 Let them fight it out.
00:28:27.000 I mean, come on.
00:28:27.000 You don't have knife fights in your neighborhood?
00:28:29.000 What are you, a racist?
00:28:32.000 Then there are Elder's views on the masks and vaccines for COVID-19.
00:28:36.000 Oh, this comes now.
00:28:37.000 Now he's a real danger.
00:28:38.000 He's a super spreader. 0.85
00:28:40.000 It's particularly telling a week ago, a who's who of black elected officials from members of Congress to the LA City Council lined up at Kedron County Health Center to urge black Angelinos to get vaccinated. 0.69
00:28:53.000 The rates continue to be abysmal, and black people are still dying disproportionately.
00:28:58.000 Elder, meanwhile, was off somewhere tweeting his grievances over masks and vaccine mandates, saying, quote, he will repeal those before I have the first cup of coffee, and I don't drink coffee.
00:29:08.000 God bless this man.
00:29:10.000 I would have asked Elder to explain his views, but his campaign hasn't returned my messages.
00:29:14.000 I wouldn't either.
00:29:16.000 However, I'm fairly certain he'd say his thinking is the result of being free and independent, rather than a believer in the victimhood messaging that's supposedly purported by Democrats.
00:29:25.000 He'd also probably say, as he did on Travis Smiley's radio show recently, that he doesn't care much about black people.
00:29:30.000 What?
00:29:31.000 He never said that.
00:29:33.000 This is the quote he uses.
00:29:34.000 I believe that many policies that have been implemented by the left, often with the best of intentions, have disproportionately effect on black America. 0.78
00:29:42.000 How does he say he hate black people?
00:29:44.000 How did the LA Times publish this slander? 0.51
00:29:48.000 And I'm still waiting for the point where, in the article where she proves that he's a white supremacist, how do you get a clickbait title like that in the Los Angeles Times with literally nothing that points to it?
00:30:00.000 Some black people do agree with him.
00:30:01.000 We aren't a monolith.
00:30:02.000 And so it's true.
00:30:03.000 He does have fans who are black and are likely to vote for him.
00:30:06.000 Oh, really?
00:30:08.000 So not all black people are the same? 0.97
00:30:09.000 That would be racist to believe, which you are.
00:30:11.000 But it's also true that black people, particularly black Angelinos, overwhelmingly vote Democratic.
00:30:16.000 That's the foundation of a new campaign launched by local, state, and federal black officials from LA to increase black turnout amongst black voters.
00:30:23.000 Be careful what you wish for.
00:30:24.000 They don't like Gavin Newsom.
00:30:25.000 The campaign wasn't created because of Elder standing in the polls, but, quote, that accelerated its intensity.
00:30:30.000 Ah, yes.
00:30:31.000 How dare we have the first ever black governor of California? 1.00
00:30:34.000 No, we would rather have the white liberal guy. 0.94
00:30:38.000 I thought that black lives mattered. 0.83
00:30:40.000 I thought race was everything.
00:30:41.000 I thought we need to have critical consciousness.
00:30:43.000 I thought melanin content was the ultimate social currency.
00:30:46.000 So you're trying to tell me that Erica D. Smith would rather have a white male colonialist governor than a black man from south central LA?
00:31:00.000 Maybe it's all about power and not about race.
00:31:05.000 The campaign wasn't created, as I said, because of Elder.
00:31:09.000 Instead, his candidacy feels personal, as she says, like an insult to blackness.
00:31:16.000 Oh, we're going to keep on going through this article.
00:31:18.000 Now, why am I going to this article in such great detail?
00:31:22.000 This shows you how fragile Democrats' control over the black community is. 0.94
00:31:29.000 They just go to racist, bigot, homophobic, and immediately throw pejoratives. 0.97
00:31:35.000 Larry Elder might be the next governor of California, everybody, no matter how much they call him a white supremacist. 0.70

00:32:54.000 LA City Councilwoman Mark Ridley Thomas writes about Larry Elder or says about Larry Elder, who they call a white supremacist.
00:33:02.000 Use your talents and gifts for good, not to bring other people down, particularly those that don't deserve to be down.
00:33:08.000 That's what Larry Elder fails to understand.
00:33:10.000 He's throwing out all the rhetoric about the minimum wage, all that talk about poverty pimps, all that anti-vaccine.
00:33:16.000 It's only politically, it's not only politically, but intellectually offensive.
00:33:21.000 Earl Ofari Hutchinson, a political analyst and author, says, quote, the only positive I see in an elder candidate is that it's another wake-up call for Democrats in California nationally to not take black people or people of color's votes and support for granted. 0.83
00:33:34.000 Najee Ali says, activist, he'd be a disaster for the black community.
00:33:39.000 He would suffer greatly. 0.99
00:33:40.000 He's the black Trump, and I'm speaking as his friend. 0.91
00:33:45.000 Even though Ali acknowledges that his friendship is strained. 0.90
00:33:49.000 Abdullah, who runs BLM, says, quote, anytime you put a black face on white supremacy, which is what Larry Elder is, there are people who will utilize that as an opportunity to deny white supremacy.
00:34:00.000 They say, how could this be white supremacy?
00:34:03.000 This is a black man, but everything that he's pushing, everything he stands for, is advancing white supremacy. 0.83
00:34:07.000 Oh, you mean like school choice for black kids is white supremacy? 0.85
00:34:10.000 Abdullah, getting safe streets in Compton is white supremacy, improving literacy rates. 0.98
00:34:16.000 Black people know better than how dangerous Elder is. 1.00
00:34:22.000 She writes in the LA Times, LA Times, he's the OG troll that no one is supposed to feed. 0.99
00:34:28.000 But here we are.
00:34:31.000 She ends by saying, Newsom hasn't been perfect.
00:34:35.000 It took far too long for the state to roll out the COVID-19 tests and vaccines equitably.
00:34:40.000 Yeah, right.
00:34:41.000 And if hundreds of thousands of Californians weren't still on their unemployment checks, the level of fraud and mismanagement of the Employment Development Department would almost be comical.
00:34:51.000 But as Kamarger said, quote, I'm not interested in going back to Jim Crow because I want to have a black person as governor.
00:35:00.000 Duh.
00:35:01.000 She ends her piece.
00:35:03.000 Do they actually believe this nonsense that they write?
00:35:07.000 That Larry Elder is going to usher in Jim Crow back to California?
00:35:12.000 First of all, would he even have the power to do that as governor?
00:35:16.000 No, of course not. 0.90
00:35:17.000 It's a silly question.
00:35:19.000 This is nothing more than a fear-mongering and scare tactic. 0.69
00:35:24.000 This is something that is a great fault line in the entire hyperracialization of American politics.
00:35:32.000 And that's when we put up black conservatives for office like Larry Elder that dare to call BLM what it is, advocate for school choice, safer streets, economic development, and empowerment.
00:35:46.000 And how does he get received by his fellow black Americans? 0.59
00:35:49.000 They call him a white supremacist. 0.96
00:35:54.000 It's pretty racist to do that, isn't it?
00:35:59.000 Larry Elder has the entire political establishment of California reeling and in a free fall.
00:36:08.000 If Larry Elder actually ushered in Jim Crow, by the way, he wouldn't be allowed to serve as governor. 0.94
00:36:13.000 It's such a ridiculous thing to say. 0.94
00:36:14.000 It really is. 0.94
00:36:15.000 You know what the closest thing to Jim Crow you actually have in California is the state of the public and government-run schools under the regime of Gavin Newsom that have been happening in downtown Los Angeles, while the white kids get to go to private schools. 0.65
00:36:28.000 Larry Elder will try to change that through school choice.
00:36:33.000 But Erica D. Smith doesn't care about that. 1.00
00:36:35.000 Erica D. Smith says she cares about black people.
00:36:38.000 I care about black issues.
00:36:40.000 What are those black issues that you actually care about?
00:36:41.000 You're trying to tell me that black issues are different than just regular human issues, like the development of the character and the soul and the spirit of a human being.
00:36:49.000 Safe streets, having lots of children, staying loyally married to somebody?
