00:02:21.000There were over 4,000 people there, it was totally packed.
00:02:23.000There were people waiting outside, and that has been typical of a lot of the events I've been at.
00:02:28.000I've been really pleased with the number of people that have come to our events, the excitement.
00:02:35.000People are getting this race, and how this guy that I'm running against is hiding all of his real views, which are Marxist and leftist.
00:02:42.000You know, boys and girls sports and all these things that he now suddenly doesn't believe, trying to hide from the public, lie to the public about his actual positions, because he knows that if he talks about issues and he tells the truth about what he actually believes, whether it's oil and gas, whether it's taxes, whether it's transing of kids, he and I disagree on every single issue.
00:03:02.000But right now, during the general election, he has adopted almost every one of my positions.
00:03:07.000Of course he has, because that's what they do.
00:03:10.000They run to the middle and act like moderates.
00:03:13.000And we know that the problem with Tal Rico is that he's got all these clips.
00:03:17.000He's got all the clips that are proving exactly what he believes and who he is.
00:03:21.000And we're going to get to that in just a second.
00:03:23.000And you talked about the energy on the ground in the state of Texas.
00:03:28.000And I've been getting messages from all of my contacts there.
00:03:31.000You know, West Texas is coming out, rural Texas is coming out, East Texas, those Bible Belt communities are really showing up.
00:04:33.000If our people show up, so I'm encouraging everybody to show up today or Tuesday.
00:04:39.000Bring your family, bring your friends, act like this matters because if we don't save, if we don't win this election, we're going to lose Texas.
00:04:46.000And if we lose Texas, we lose the country.
00:04:48.000We cannot afford to be relaxed, to think everything's fine.
00:05:00.000Well, everybody needs to be a force multiplier, especially in Texas.
00:05:03.000You know, I love the name of your tour, Come and Take It.
00:05:06.000Mr. Attorney General, because it really is the Texas spirit in a title, in a name, and I think it embodies kind of the defiance that we have to have right now.
00:05:17.000You mentioned the specific marching orders, so I want to make sure that we make that very clear for the audience.
00:05:22.000If you are listening in Texas, and we have a lot of great Texas Patriots that tune into this show, give them their marching orders exactly where they need to go to vote, when they can vote.
00:05:33.000I want to just be crystal, crystal clear what days they can vote, et cetera.
00:05:38.000So, today is the last day of early voting.
00:05:39.000From 7 this morning till 7 in the evening, you can vote.
00:05:43.000I would suggest get it over with, get your vote in, get it counted so you don't get distracted or forget on Tuesday.
00:05:50.000Then, obviously, Tuesday, same thing, 7 to 7.
00:05:52.000Depending on where you're at in the state, there's all kinds of voting locations, especially during early voting.
00:05:58.000You can vote usually within the county, many different places on election day.
00:06:01.000A lot of times, you have to vote at your precinct.
00:06:06.000We are going to decide this election in the next two days.
00:06:09.000And we're going to decide the difference between Marxism and constitutional republic, freedom versus control by the government in Washington.
00:06:17.000And if my opponent's elected, he will march to the orders of Chuck Schumer and the leftist in Washington.
00:06:23.000He will not be listening to Texans about what they want to do about any issue.
00:06:29.000And by the way, an underappreciated aspect of this when you have President Trump in the White House, Texas, it's important to have your senator have a red line to the White House.
00:06:40.000It's very underappreciated, actually, of how much more power you're going to have as a state.
00:06:46.000I want to play two clips in juxtaposition because you mentioned that Talrico is basically going to be a puppet of the far left movement, and I can prove it to you.
00:08:41.000And once they have it, they are not going to relinquish it because they will control the elections and they will make sure that we have a very leftist government, very woke and not friendly to the people of Texas.
00:08:51.000So this is an extreme version of democracy, if we can even call it that, because that's not where they want to go.
00:10:24.000And what I'm saying to pastors across the state look, Christians don't vote typically in any higher percentage than anybody else.
00:10:30.000And this is the time for pastors, for churches to communicate to the Christian.
00:10:36.000If we get the Christian community out to vote, if we get the faith community out to vote, We will win this election, but that's up to these pastors to encourage their congregations and their parishioners to get out and vote and make sure that our values are protected.
00:10:52.000I'm going to play one last clip here for you.
00:10:55.000I know you got a busy day, but this topic of getting the church out to vote couldn't be more important.
00:11:01.000You know, you look at places like Michigan and El Sayed, you've got 95% of Muslims are going to vote.
00:11:07.000And I'm assuming those numbers are probably going to hold fairly true in Michigan or in Texas and Christians, we have some estimates that show 50% of us are not going to vote.0.96
00:11:18.000And that is unacceptable because when we cede the public square to people who don't share our values, guess what kind of values they're going to inject into the public square?0.87
00:11:27.000And this is a clip from a pastor down in Texas who is describing Tal Rico wearing the skin suit of Christianity.
00:11:35.000It's a little bit longer clip here, Mr. Attorney General, so just bear with me, but I think it's so critically important.
00:11:57.000They want the government to do the role of the individual, and they want nobody to do the role of the government.
00:12:03.000Enforce justice to be a terror to the wrongdoer.
00:12:07.000That's the role of the government in Romans 13.0.57
00:12:09.000So, what progressive Christians do is they want the government to do the role of the individual, and they want nobody to do the role of the government.
00:12:17.000If Christians do not do our responsibility as salt, the salt of the earth, salt and light of the earth, what you're going to see is you're going to end up with a biblically defined heretic and demonic false teacher leading your state.
00:12:31.000And that is going to affect the societal inheritance that you hand your children, grandchildren, and the future church in America.
00:12:40.000That last line there hit me so hard, Mr. Attorney General, that it affects the inheritance of what you're passing down to your children.
00:12:49.000And I think that's where I'd like to end this conversation with you.
00:12:54.000Texans are a proud people, and you have a massive inheritance that you're passing down to your children.
00:13:03.000Why does this race mean so much to the state of Texas and to the future children of that state?0.95
00:13:08.000Look, we have 250 years of freedom in this country.0.99
00:13:10.000We're at the first year of the next 250 years.
00:13:12.000And it's our responsibility to pass that on to our children, our grandchildren, and to the people that are going to be looking back 250 years from now and they're going to say, Did Texas leave that legacy to us like the founders left it to them?
00:13:26.000And look, we don't have to go to war to do this.
00:13:29.000We don't have to do all you have to do is show up at the polls and vote.
00:13:33.000It's such a Such a little effort to preserve freedom, to preserve opportunity, not just for you, but for you and your family and you and your kids and grandchildren.
00:15:16.000And every so often they do this in the state of Texas, especially in midterm years, because Republicans, for whatever reason, they don't like to show up during midterms.
00:15:25.000This has to be the absolute first thing you think of if you're in the state of Texas, you're involved in politics.
00:15:40.000We emphasize this over and over because it matters.
00:15:43.000Midterms are entirely decided by who cares more.
00:15:47.000That in every single race, everywhere in this country, the winner is going to get fewer votes than Kamala Harris got to lose last year's election in that state.
00:15:57.000So in Texas, whoever wins that race needs far fewer votes than either Trump or Kamala got two years ago.
00:16:04.000This is entirely down to who wants it more.
00:16:07.000And there's a lot of reasons we could be optimistic.0.67
00:16:10.000Young people don't like Democrats that much, a lot of them are just jaded and tuned out.0.60
00:16:17.000Are very jaded about our political system.
00:16:19.000We have so many things to be excited for.
00:16:22.000That list that we did took the 20 biggest promises, 16 of them big home runs.
00:16:28.000We're building that new chip fab here in Phoenix.
00:16:32.000We're building things like that all over the country.
00:16:34.000We are building huge factories for the first time in this country, basically in my lifetime, where we can say, oh, a big, cutting edge, world class factory going up in the US.
00:16:45.000We have a secure border, first time in our lifetimes.
00:16:48.000We're getting real deportations, first time in our lifetimes.
00:16:53.000We're not having, if you're a white person or Asian person in America, your children are not being discriminated against by their own government for the first time in your life.
00:17:03.000These are all gigantic wins that we can entrench and expand over the next two years if we turn out to vote.
00:17:13.000And if you throw this away because you just didn't care enough, because you're mad about gas prices, you want to throw your country away to people who are.
00:17:21.000Overtly saying we want a revolution so there will never be a conservative government in this country again.
00:17:27.000When they say we're going to expand the Supreme Court, what they are saying is, do you like school vouchers?
00:18:04.000If the left gets power again, they will pay millions of dollars to go and find illegal immigrant violent criminals that we deported, fly them back to America, give them amnesty, and pay them reparations.
00:18:16.000That is what the left believes right now.
00:18:20.000That is what they will do if we do not turn out.
00:19:08.000I don't know why people don't think to vote in the midterms, but a lot of young people don't tend to do it.
00:19:13.000In a country where more and more people are checked out, a side that just cares that much more about turning out, voting, making sure their people get their vote every single time has that much more power.
00:20:18.000Minor person at the lower end who did some who tried to help their country, yeah, and they will try to vaporize them.
00:20:24.000They openly will say, We want to honestly, what it is is it is the political version of Tyler Robinson murdering Charlie, yeah, which is why a bunch of the far left people they cannot do without the votes of will go and brag, Ha ha, we killed Charlie because they want to say, If you voice conservative opinions, you might be shot dead on a campus.
00:20:41.000Same thing, if you want to work for a Republican government, we might bring 50 felony charges against you and throw you in prison.
00:20:50.000I've been telling you about Patriot Mobile for a long time now, and many of you have made the switch.
00:21:09.000For 12 years now, they've put their money where their mouth is, contributing millions of dollars to organizations defending the First and Second Amendments, the sanctity of life, and supporting our military veterans and first responders.
00:21:23.000They're activists fighting on the front lines with us.
00:21:26.000And the service is rock solid, higher priority, premium 5G coverage on any of the three major U.S. carriers, unlimited data, free international calling to over 200 countries, and 100% U.S. based customer support.
00:21:39.000Right now, for Black Friday, they've got the best deal that they've ever, ever offered a free 5G smartphone plus two months of free service.
00:22:09.000Again, one of our favorite investigative journalists, Luke Rosiak, he has been on it like white on rice on this fraud scheme, bilking federal taxpayer dollars for a new and rising, the fastest growing.0.99
00:22:25.000Employment opportunity, especially amongst refugees.0.98
00:22:28.000America's biggest employment opportunity, the biggest job sector, fastest growing is just looting this country for money.1.00
00:23:07.000So, when you look at the statistics from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, home health care is the most common job in states like California, Minnesota, New York, and then also Pennsylvania.
00:23:21.000And basically, what it means is you go to your relative's house and cook and clean for them.
00:23:26.000So, this isn't a nurse or anything like that.
00:23:28.000And it's always funded by Medicaid, which is weird because if people really are just old and they can't cook, you would think that like private insurance and Medicare would do it too.
00:23:40.000But what it is, is, you know, poor people on Medicaid, they basically can get a free check to their family member for, you know, doing hanging out with their family.
00:23:50.000And in particular, in certain refugee communities, this has become so common that it's just a way of life.
00:23:57.000And so I spent weeks in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, just filming these people.0.96
00:24:01.000And you can see that they don't even go to the houses that they're billing for.
00:24:06.000And I literally got the GPS records that the government uses to say that there's no fraud.
00:24:14.000I saw the internal records that said the guy that's on the screen right now was at a different house across town while I had eyes on him.
00:24:22.000So the government has no clue who's getting this money, what they're doing, if the people are really sick.
00:24:29.000And the craziest thing is so you see him on the screen here pulling in.
00:24:33.000He uses a GPS to clock in, but then he goes home and he comes back 11 hours later and clocks out.
00:24:40.000So the GPS checks that he's on site during the clock ins and clock outs, but not in between.
00:24:45.000And so, home care, the Democrats say it's only 20 bucks an hour and they want to give them a raise.
00:24:51.000But 20 bucks an hour is a lot when you're not talking about a 40 hour work week.
00:24:56.000You're talking about an 80 hour work week or 77 in this case.
00:25:00.000So, the guy's making like 82 grand a year.
00:25:03.000And then the craziest part is I found out he's logging into a second house while he's at this one, which would total $160,000 a year.0.90
00:25:13.000So, the end of the day, in Pennsylvania, Bhutanese refugees have a higher.0.92
00:25:19.000Median household income than Pennsylvanians do.0.79
00:25:22.000And it's because Governor Josh Shapiro and others in similar blue states, they've looked the other way at mass Medicaid fraud because they've just turned it into essentially a universal basic income for some people in their voter base.
00:26:00.000What I'm about to reveal is so scandalous and wrong, it should end the $35 billion a year taxpayer funded Medicaid home health program overnight.0.98
00:26:09.000For a foreign transplant to Pennsylvania, life is pretty good.0.82
00:26:14.000Ram makes $80,000 a year with a curiously light schedule.0.88
00:26:18.000Every day, he pulls his car into the driveway of a nearby home at 6 a.m.
00:26:23.000Fiddles with his phone for two minutes and then leaves.
00:26:26.000Exactly 11 hours later, you'll see his car come back.
00:26:30.000He pulls up, a few swipes on the phone, and then he leaves without even getting out of the car.
00:26:35.000The reason why could bankrupt America.
00:26:38.000This is happening at such scale that home health aid is now the most common job in Pennsylvania and California and New York.
00:26:46.000It's absolutely loaded with waste, fraud, and abuse.
00:26:51.000So, who is in that house that he's driving up to?
00:26:56.000So, it's a woman whose Facebook photos show her gallivanting across the world.
00:27:01.000She spent, she was in Nepal last month, the same country that she claims to be a refugee from.
00:27:06.000She's vacationing there, constantly going to Disney World, Aruba.
00:27:11.000She's got a Range Rover and a custom Cybertruck in the driveway.
00:27:15.000And she puts her aunt on the aunt has diabetes.1.00
00:27:19.000And that's the justification that gets her 77 hours a week of home healthcare.
00:27:24.000And so I talked to her and she was super sketchy.
00:27:27.000She was super confused because she said, well, The government inspector always calls ahead before they show up to verify that the guy is here.
00:27:36.000So I don't, I'm confused that you would just show up unannounced.
00:27:39.000And so the government is basically tipping off these people to help them get away with it.
00:27:55.000And so this is the problem Medicaid is mostly state.
00:27:59.000It's run by the states, but it's mostly federal money.0.52
00:28:02.000And so the states are basically taking what congressional Republicans intended to be health care funding and they're converting it into just free welfare for refugees because then the states, Don't have to pay for it.0.51
00:28:14.000It's the purest moral hazard in the world that if it's states checking for fraud, but it's federal money that's paying for it, they're not going to try very hard.0.64
00:28:23.000I'm just going to make a prediction right now since you were basically following them to find this fraud.
00:28:29.000My guess is they'll pull a Nick Shirley here.0.67
00:28:32.000We'll get the Luke Rosiak Act that says the real problem here is that someone was investigating these refugees.
00:28:47.000So, even though I'm not optimistic here, did you communicate with anyone in the Pennsylvania state government?
00:28:53.000Do you think there is going to be any movement to, for example, charge these people or cut off their scam?
00:28:59.000Or what has been the reaction of the state government, if any, to this sort of behavior?
00:29:03.000So, after I laid out the evidence to the head of a home healthcare company for the guy that you saw on the screen, he himself called for the abolition of this program.
00:29:14.000As it relates to the, you just talked about a moral hazard.
00:29:17.000The other moral hazard is when you pay your family member to do services for you, that family member is not going to tell the government that you didn't show up.
00:29:27.000It's not going to tell the government, hey, my brother sucks at doing his job, he's lazy, he doesn't do anything, send me a real aid.
00:29:35.000And so, what the company owner himself even called for lawmakers to do is say, at a minimum, we can't pay, we can't let people steer Medicaid funding.
00:29:55.000An old lady and Pennsylvania only requires you to be 60, which is the big problem here.1.00
00:30:01.000But an old lady may claim to be infirm to get her son a paycheck, but she's not going to pretend to be sick so that a stranger can come hang out in her house and like cook for her if she doesn't really need it.0.99
00:30:15.000So I think there's a Core moral hazard.
00:30:17.000Yeah, well, you're more optimistic than I am, Luke.1.00
00:30:20.000I just think about the asabiya we see with the Somali community.0.99
00:30:23.000I think it'd be so easy for them to have their clan.
00:30:27.000Your second cousin will watch my grandma, and my son, who's your second cousin, will watch them.
00:30:36.000We used to do this sort of thing for free.
00:30:38.000It was called being a good son, being a good daughter, being a good aunt or cousin or whatever.
00:30:43.000And I don't understand why this has to be funded by the government in the first place.
00:30:49.000I find that particular aspect of this troubling.0.98
00:30:53.000But I also think it's important to expand the aperture here and understand that this is affecting affordability for all Americans because you're paying the taxes that are now getting fleeced by Bhutanese refugees and people that are apparently fleeing their home countries of Nepal while they go back and vacation there.1.00
00:31:11.000This crap needs to stop too because we've seen this with Somalis.1.00
00:31:15.000The Somalis say, oh, I'm a refugee from Somalia.1.00
00:31:19.000They go back and vacation there and go visit their families.0.87
00:31:22.000If you can go back and vacation where you're fleeing from, you're not a refugee.
00:31:27.000And your paper should absolutely be pulled.1.00
00:31:30.000And by the way, we should stop admitting these people because it's all rife with fraud.
00:31:33.000Here's JD Vance last night at a town hall in Fort Worth talking about this fraud.
00:31:38.000The fraud is actually, to me, very closely connected to the affordability problem in the United States of America.
00:31:46.000If you're stealing hundreds of billions of dollars, and that's what we've already uncovered in the anti fraud effort, if you're stealing hundreds of billions of dollars that should go to American citizens, or at the very least should be returned to Americans in the form of tax relief, and you're going out and spending that money, you know, buying a Mercedes Benz as a fraudster, then you're actually contributing to the affordability crisis.
00:32:08.000And so I think one of the biggest dividends that we're going to see.
00:32:11.000From the anti fraud effort, is that we're going to give the American people more of their money back, less going to fraudsters, and that's how we make life more affordable.
00:32:20.000We got an email just a moment ago from BJ.
00:32:23.000He says, I've got to tell you, the fraud we allow is so infuriating.
00:32:26.000I live in Pennsylvania, he says, and I'm watching the show now on my lunch break.
00:32:30.000I work from home, I work overtime, I have a second job, I still don't make $70,000.
00:32:37.000These losers who shouldn't be here in the first place are living their best lives.0.96
00:32:44.000This is beyond just, oh, it's a big waste of money.
00:32:47.000This is, it's morally corrosive to our country that people are able to do this, that they're able to come here and so nakedly loot our treasury, loot the country, brag about it, and get all this political sponsorship because they're clients of the Democrats.
00:35:56.000That tweet has been seen over 7 million times at this point.
00:36:00.000And they say that, you know, he's still with us.
00:36:02.000He's got a lot of fans, a fan club, and we're among those fans.
00:36:06.000So good for Red Baron because that guy.
00:36:09.000Salt of the earth, working his tail off, trying to pay his mortgage, take care of his four kids, doing it the right way.
00:36:15.000And then to hear stories like those that you are exposing, Luke, of a freaking Bhutanese refugee taking care of some 60 year old woman with diabetes, okay, you know, cry me a river.
00:36:27.000And then to find out she's got fancy cars, gallivanting around the Caribbean and going back to Nepal, the country she claims she's fleeing from, is so insulting to the American taxpayer and so insulting to everybody in this audience.
00:36:43.000Especially when you see that guy working his tail off and his fingers to the bone.
00:36:47.000Yeah, I think it's a perfect analogy, really.
00:36:49.000And I think that with the election coming up, Americans should be disgusted by the fact that blue state governors like Josh Shapiro have made it so that Bhutanese refugees have a higher median household income than actual Pennsylvanians.0.99
00:37:29.000We all take care of our own family because it's the right thing to do, and life is hard sometimes.1.00
00:37:34.000But when these refugees won't take care of their own family unless they get paid, it makes you wonder whether they're refugees at all.1.00
00:37:42.000And I think, you know, it connects to Ilhan Omar too, because there's all the evidence that her refugee application was fraudulent.0.99
00:37:50.000But if you take a step back, just what we can all see that she's not grateful to be here, that's all the evidence you need.0.51
00:37:56.000Because if you were really fleeing hardship, you'd get down on your knees and you'd thank America and you'd go through your life without complaint because it would be better than whatever hellhole you escaped from.
00:38:07.000And that's not what we're seeing from these people.
00:38:09.000Yeah, Luke, have you contacted the Trump administration, the fraud division?
00:38:13.000Have you sent them all of this material?
00:38:17.000You know, we'll see if they take action.
00:38:19.000It certainly exposes that the GPS system they're using to track.
00:38:23.000Does not reflect what's happening on the ground.
00:38:26.000And Dr. Oz has pointed out recently, he's talked about this program and said there was a drug dealer arrested in Pennsylvania who, while he was being arrested, he asked the cops to let him out of handcuffs so he could clock out of his home health care shift.
00:38:39.000And the cops were like, Why would you tell us that?
00:38:43.000And he said, Oh, everybody's doing it.
00:38:44.000What are you going to arrest the whole city?
00:38:46.000And so Dr. Oz said, You know, the problem with these fraud scissors, they're not just stealing our money, they're not just taking services away from people who actually need them.
00:39:05.000When the next guy comes down the aisle at the grocery store and asks you what time it is, you're going to have to tell them to F off because people like this, you know?
00:39:27.000Some Bhutanese or Somali refugee that we extended our heart and our graciousness and our generosity to, turning around and repaying that by looting the treasury.1.00
00:39:40.000And so the trick here is when we expose this, when Luke does his reporting, when we talk about it on this show, you cannot turn around and be like, well, I don't want to be racist.
00:39:53.000We had Tim Miller from The Bulwark on this week, and he was like, well, we're supposed to be an open society and welcoming, and you're turning America into something else.
00:40:01.000No, they're turning America into something else.
00:40:32.000Luke Rosiak, investigative journalist and reporter at the Daily Wire.0.99
00:40:36.000And, you know, listen, Daily Wire takes a lot of crap.1.00
00:40:40.000You know, Turning Point takes a lot of crap.0.99
00:40:41.000It's part of doing business, okay?0.97
00:40:43.000But the fact that they are funding reporters like Luke Rosiak to go out there and do real journalists, they deserve your respect and appreciation.
00:40:51.000And another thing to drive home is like, it's not even just that this happens, it's that the left, just like with the border, it's that they are very much.
00:41:02.000Aligned with let this continue forever.
00:41:08.000Their approach for voter fraud, if you expose it, is to charge people exposing it.
00:41:12.000Their response to Nick Shirley's of the world and probably the Luke Rosiak soon enough is to pass bills that make it so you can't go and videotape this fraud.
00:41:19.000That it is literally hear no evil, see no evil.
00:41:22.000That if they will make it so nobody's looking for this, then they can argue it's not happening.
00:41:27.000And then they make it so pervasive, it's like that criminal.
00:43:31.000I have ex-food, energy, and housing at 0.3%.
00:43:35.000Let's see, the services price index up 0-4, so still a little hot in there.
00:43:39.000I'm looking for the core price index up 0-3 as expected, and I'm assuming that means that the year-over-year is 3-1 up a tick.
00:43:46.000On GDP, hotter, I can't use that word because that's not the word worse used, better than expected.
00:43:53.0003-4 versus an expectation of 3-2, and that's up from But the economy is not hot, it's strong or solid or whatever word the Fed used yesterday.
00:44:40.000That's making GDP grow and making consumption grow.
00:44:43.000And, you know, the Democrats, their favorite word is affordability.
00:44:48.000And they point to high gas prices, which are indeed high.
00:44:51.000But if you look at the standard of living of a typical American from the day President Trump was inaugurated through this report, then their spending.
00:45:02.000Their consumption has gone up cumulatively for all Americans by, you won't believe it, a trillion dollars.
00:45:11.000And so people are, after adjusting for inflation, that ordinary Americans are a trillion dollars better off than they were when Joe Biden left office.
00:45:20.000That's more than $5,000 per family of increased well being because of all the great news that President Trump's policies had produced.
00:45:28.000And so then I got in a little bit of left wing trouble, which is, as you guys know, it's kind of cause for celebration and raise the toast, right?
00:45:37.000Because I was on, I forget, I was on one of the Sunday shows.
00:45:41.000And I actually said, after citing this number, I said, look, the whole affordability story is just a fraud.
00:47:00.000Because, you know, gas prices end up trickling, energy prices end up trickling throughout the economy, they make everything more expensive.
00:47:07.000But that is not hurting the Trump economy in a larger macro sense.
00:47:57.000But the thing about the affordability thing is that because of the sort of corruption of journalism, the reason I like to mention it with people who are out of journalists like yourselves is this that they love to try to take a Trump White House person and give them a question that kind of like, when did you stop beating your wife?
00:48:18.000And so if you sort of say, well, geez, people, the polls say that people think it's the worst economy ever, then if you disagree with them, Then you're insensitive.
00:48:28.000And if you agree with them, then you're basically saying you admit that Trump's policies are bad.
00:48:34.000And so they constantly set up these weird questions where you aren't really supposed to answer one way or the other and look like an okay guy.
00:48:45.000And so you're constantly having to deal with stuff like that.
00:48:47.000And the affordability one is one of those.
00:48:50.000Everybody's saying things aren't affordable.
00:48:52.000And so that if you say, well, things are affordable, then you're out of touch.
00:49:01.000Well, and there was an interesting moment at JD Vance's, Vice President JD Vance's town hall last night where he was talking about the price of homes, right?
00:49:10.000So he gets a question from a, I think it was one of our Turning Point USA vice president, I believe at Texas Tech, and asking about the price of homes, right?
00:49:20.000He went back and looked at the numbers and he said, since we've been doing our deportation, since we've been doing all this stuff, cracking down on H 1B fraud, the price of homes in Texas dropped almost 3%.
00:49:34.000Is that under Joe Biden, the price of homes in Texas went up 100%.
00:49:38.000And I think this is wherein you kind of run into a problem is that our policies really do work.
00:49:44.000When you restore financial stability and common sense in our markets and some of these other ancillary issues like immigration, they do start working, but it's slower than ruining them.
00:51:04.000I do believe we're in a race against the clock when it comes to the economy because we've got, yeah, there's an election on Tuesday, but then we've got two years until 2028.
00:51:15.000What When you're looking at the economy, what are you seeing that makes you so encouraged and so enthusiastic?
00:51:23.000One of the best things that I see in the data right now is for the longest time, it feels like the people in their sort of 20s and early 30s were getting handed the bill for everything else that the government is doing and not really seeing much of government come out and provide things that are helpful to their lives.
00:51:49.000And under the Biden administration, you saw, for example, first time home ownership.
00:51:55.000Basically, it went from being like 26 year old people to 36 year old people.
00:52:01.000And one of the things that I think is the strongest about the economy right now is it's an economy that is teeing itself up for a golden age for today's younger folks, today's young workers.
00:52:14.000And the way you can see it is that we just had in the GDP report that we just had, we had the biggest capital spending increase I've ever seen.
00:52:21.000And back in the day when I was a kid just out of graduate school, I was the guy who followed capital spending for Alan Greenspan at the Fed.
00:52:29.000And in all my years, I've never seen capital spending go up so much.
00:52:33.000And we still have a trade deficit, but the imports that we're bringing in are machines and tools and things that people are going to use to build things in the future.
00:52:42.000And so it's one thing if we're buying things that like today's folks are consuming, that doesn't create like a stock of capital that can help create a golden age for today's younger workers.
00:52:55.000Right now, what we're doing is we're growing like crazy, but we're not growing like crazy because we're buying like carnival animals.
00:53:02.000We're buying like We are growing like crazy because we're buying stuff that's going to make our productive capacity way higher in the future.
00:53:10.000And there's never really been such a revolutionary time in the history of the American economy.
00:53:16.000And that's going to lead to jobs, that's going to lead to productivity that will further increase the earnings per capita of the average American family.
00:53:27.000Just sorry if I cut you off, but think about this.
00:53:31.000From the time President Trump took office to today, There are 120,000 people who are currently employed building factories who weren't doing that in the January before President Trump took office.
00:53:45.000So you go to the University of Michigan football stadium, take everybody who's in there at that game, and then put them to work building a factory.
00:53:53.000Like, think about how many factories are going to be built all around the country.
00:53:57.000And then when those factories turn the lights on, just think about what's going to happen to jobs and to wages.
00:54:02.000And, you know, I think that what's going on is that the Trump economy right now.0.51
00:54:07.000Is reversing not just the damage to Joe Biden, but the damage that we got when China entered the WTO and created all those ghost towns around America.
00:54:15.000Well, the ghost towns are waking up and they're flourishing, and they're doing it on the backs of 120,000 workers who were building factories that weren't just a year and a half ago.0.90
00:54:24.000Yeah, and we're employing Americans, not foreigners.0.87
00:54:27.000And the fastest growing segment of the economy isn't government jobs either, which is another huge problem.
00:54:52.000And the fact is that we've been following closely what happens around the DC area to the government workers when they leave federal employment.
00:55:28.000The white pill economist from the White House, we love it.
00:55:31.000And this is our final pitch to voters that so much foundational work has been done to right the wrongs of the Biden years and, frankly, decades before that.
00:55:42.000We're at the precipice of some really good things.
00:55:46.000And if we get those gas prices down, I think people are really going to feel it.
00:55:49.000They're going to emotionally connect with that.
00:55:51.000And so hopefully that's what's on the horizon.
00:55:59.000Before he ever stepped onto a debate stage or behind a microphone, Charlie understood something really important that if you want to lead, you first have to learn.
00:56:08.000Charlie believed that ideas shape character, conviction, and courage.
00:56:12.000That's why he spent years studying the classics, the American founding, and the Bible through Hillsdale College's.
00:56:18.000He would rave about these courses all the time.
00:56:20.000These free online courses are taught by Hillsdale College professors and draw from the same great books and enduring ideas studied on Hillsdale's campus.
00:56:29.000Hillsdale's newest free online course is the Iliad, where Professor Stephen Smith guides students through Homer's great epic of honor, courage, friendship, leadership, and the pursuit of true greatness.
00:56:40.000For nearly 3,000 years, the Iliad has shaped the Western imagination.
00:56:44.000It tells the story of Achilles as he confronts injustice, rage, grief, responsibility, and the terrible costs of war.
00:56:50.000But Homer's epic is more than a story of ancient battles.
00:56:53.000It raises enduring questions about courage, duty, leadership, sacrifice, and self command.
00:56:59.000Achilles is the greatest warrior among the Greeks, but Homer asks whether strength alone is enough to make a man truly great.
00:57:05.000In this new free online course, you'll follow Achilles through the defining trials of his life and discover why one of the greatest works of Western literature still speaks to the permanent questions of human life.
00:57:16.000Charlie understood that learning isn't just about gaining knowledge.
00:57:19.000It's about forming the mind and character needed to face the challenges of life.
00:57:23.000With wisdom and courage, you can enroll today completely free and take this class or their 40 plus other free online courses.
00:57:30.000Just visit charlieforhillsdale.com to start learning today.
00:58:10.000Let's let's ask on the Charlie Kirk show.
00:58:12.000So there was a story about um Candace Owens receiving money from Russia to be an influencer, and I was like, Whoa, what do you guys know about that?
00:59:50.000And the other thing I would say is, I guess the whole ideology is that Russia is this proudly Christian nation that stands up for Christianity or something.
01:00:01.000But if you really peel back the layers, it's like divorce rates are through the roof, fertility rates are bottoming out, alcoholism and all this stuff.
01:00:09.000I know a lot of Christians from Russia, and they don't view Russia as a Christian paradise.0.92
01:00:13.000It's better than it was under the Soviets.0.95
01:00:16.000And the other thing is, though, they get really upset about Christians getting killed in Gaza, for example, which you should be upset about that.
01:00:24.000But then, you know, what about all the Christians that Putin's killing in Ukraine?
01:00:28.000I never hear them complain about that.
01:00:48.000We provide translators so foreigners can vote in our elections.
01:00:51.000And they're coaching migrant voters and even filling out their ballots per Maine wire.
01:00:57.000So the U.S. Attorney for Maine, Andrew Benson, confirmed his office is reviewing the early voting video and says, We will not tolerate threats to the integrity of our elections.
01:01:33.000140 hours of security footage obtained by the main wire shows 200 plus non English speaking Somali voters walked through the process by a handful of these translators.
01:01:45.000Under main law, translators can't approach voters unasked, can't influence their choices, and can't touch the ballot.
01:02:16.000If I had tried half of this stuff when I first got started in politics, they would have thrown me out of the Republican Party and never would have let me back in.
01:02:54.000Endlessly signaling he wants the GOP to lose these midterms.
01:02:57.000They have this fantasy that if these midterms go badly, there will be some great revival of 2014 era GOP, the same GOP that lost a bunch of presidential elections in a row, that lost on every issue, that never delivered on anything.
01:04:16.000And unfortunately, Ralph Norman, who actually we endorsed at Turning Point Action before the president endorsed Darlene, he didn't win and he didn't win that primary.
01:04:43.000Well, I was just going to say at this point, I don't, honestly, sometimes I don't understand because it gets confusing to people.
01:04:48.000I think it's confusing people who aren't.
01:04:50.000As involved in politics, when we say we have the Senate, but when you look at how the Senate actually votes, there's always three or four Republicans.
01:05:04.000Yes, there's four or five Republicans in there that are under our banner, but if you look at how they vote, if you look at their actual actions, they may as well be Democrats.
01:05:11.000I mean, it is one of the most frustrating things in the world that there's a lot of people, there are people out there who will not vote because they'll say, President Trump betrayed us on the Save Act.
01:05:46.000She's not like part of the tribe or anything.0.56
01:05:48.000Susan Collins is always allowed to be as moderate as she needs to be to get elected because she's always there when we really need her.1.00
01:06:27.000If you're upset about the spending levels in Washington, the answer is to not go give power back to the Democrats.
01:06:34.000It's to vote in more Republicans because our margins were too narrow.
01:06:39.000And as you made a great point here, we had about four senators that would just go rogue.
01:06:43.000And we had to throw them all these goodies to get them to vote for anything.
01:06:46.000So if you want conservative governance, we need more conservatives.
01:06:50.000This is one of the reasons why I'm really in favor of getting rid of the 17th Amendment because senators need to get elected by the Senate.
01:06:56.000We've got to stop saying get rid of an amendment because it will not happen.
01:06:59.000But the point is, I don't want to give people cocaine.
01:07:22.000The reason I was calling is I didn't think we got enough attention by any conservative media that there are a lot of really great propositions on the ballot.
01:07:32.000Like, for example, in Alaska, Prop 2 is to get rid of ranked choice voting.
01:07:38.000And also, there were some propositions in Colorado.
01:07:42.000Like, for example, if you are found guilty of trafficking a minor, it would be like an automatic life sentence in prison.
01:07:51.000And I want to know if you guys, because you know more about these things than I do, are there really good propositions on the ballot that might help bring out like low propensity voters?
01:08:50.000Polls are all over the place on this one.
01:08:52.000There's some that have it losing by 20, some that have it winning by 11.
01:08:55.000I don't think it's well polled, but I think when you get normal Democrat voters who don't really get the memo of how extreme their party is, they read, Oh, should you require ID to vote?
01:09:04.000They shrug and they go, Yeah, of course.
01:09:06.000So if you're in California, even if you're in a House seat, we're not going to win.
01:09:12.000You need to be turning out to vote for things like this, because even in 2020, when California was as blue as it would possibly be, they tried to legalize racial discrimination in that state with a ballot measure.
01:09:54.000And they make, they have such ridiculous lies where they're like, it would cost us hundreds of millions of dollars to implement this burdensome requirement to have an ID.
01:10:00.000Hundreds of millions of dollars on an environmental study.
01:10:03.000Think about how many feet of high speed rail that money could run.
01:10:06.000That high speed rail that will never be built.
01:11:06.000Well, if you're going to stay in California, then the key thing is to fight locally and to organize locally.
01:11:13.000So, for example, we have different GOPs throughout the state of California that have contacted us to white label our Turning Point Action app, which is something you can do.
01:11:24.000You can put your own county GOP logo on it.
01:11:26.000People can download it from the app store and use all the data, all the tools that we've built over here at Turning Point Action.
01:11:32.000So, there's county GOPs all over California doing.
01:11:37.000Now, it's not a state we're going to invest hard resources in because we have to think about ROI and stewarding our resources in the best way possible, the most efficient way possible.
01:11:49.000So, unfortunately, we can't do that for you.
01:11:51.000But look at what Steve Hilton is doing.
01:11:53.000He's mobilizing a massive groundswell.
01:11:56.000Steve Hilton, he could very well lose the governorship, but ensure that Proposition 39 gets enforced.
01:12:02.000And what that does is it's a brick on brick approach.
01:12:05.000That Prop 39 getting passed might ensure that other conservatives can.
01:12:08.000Be elected in the state of California in the future.
01:12:11.000So you got to think of it incrementally in a state like California.
01:12:14.000The problem is too big to fix it in one cycle.
01:12:19.000So it's local, it's school boards, it's local races, local congressional races, and then fighting for these incremental wins on the statewide level.
01:12:28.000Because California, people don't realize this.
01:15:03.000It's the perfect storm for where you can get an upset in what's otherwise a tough year.
01:15:08.000That weak candidate in party power, strong candidate in the challenging party, and a lot of dysfunction in the state, which can boil over and make it significantly to the right of where it normally would be in the country as a whole.
01:15:23.000And so, got to fight hard in Minnesota.
01:15:26.000But we're just going to keep saying it.
01:15:45.000So, in the 2022 midterms, being from Arizona, I experienced issues at the polls.
01:15:53.000I had to go through the polls three times to vote, to cast my vote.
01:15:58.000The ballot machine or reader would not.
01:16:01.000Read my vote, and it was not just happening to me.
01:16:04.000There were a bunch of us kind of looking around at each other, being sent through twice, three times.
01:16:09.000And by the third time, they basically turned me away and said, We'll just take your ballot, put it in this box, and we'll take it downtown to be read, which I was not super comfortable with.
01:16:21.000But I didn't have any other recourse at the time, I didn't know what to do.
01:16:26.000So I know lightning never really strikes the same place twice.
01:16:30.000I'm not expecting that to happen to me again.
01:16:35.000Just want to make other Arizonans aware that things do go awry because I know it didn't happen to my husband.
01:16:41.000He was at a different polling location to vote in the 2022 election.
01:17:17.000And I just want to take everybody's mind back for a moment to 2022, where you had the ballots didn't fit right and the paper issues because they were the wrong size.
01:17:28.000And it's crazy that somebody like yourself went to three different polling places to ensure that they got their ballot in.
01:17:33.000How many people just turned away and said, I got to get back to work?
01:18:32.000We don't have to worry about turning you out on election day.
01:18:34.000And it also protects you against these election day issues.
01:18:38.000If you do see something suspicious and the range of that is so wide, I don't even want to make a specific forecast of what it would be.
01:18:44.000But if something seems off to you, make sure, even if you can't take photos, either you can record a video of yourself outside, take notes, like record very specifically what happened because that evidence would be useful.
