00:01:34.000 He's an incredible guy.

00:02:22.000 There's a lot of different stories I want to get into, but I want to give everyone here a little bit of a victory moment and then a massive warning because I think we're all being played.
00:02:33.000 So let me start with the victory.
00:02:36.000 It is incredibly unlikely.
00:02:41.000 Basically, it's not going to happen.
00:02:45.000 The Build Back Better bill.
00:02:47.000 It's unlikely it's going to get passed.
00:02:49.000 The Build Back Better bill, which gives $100 billion to illegal aliens, gives 68,000 new IRS agents, massive tax increase, hundreds of billions of dollars to clean energy.
00:03:04.000 I mean, it is a blank check to fundamentally transform the country.
00:03:10.000 Thanks to Joe Manchin and Kirsten Cinema, it looks like that bill is not going to pass.
00:03:16.000 But I don't think that's news to most senators.
00:03:22.000 I think that's news to us.
00:03:24.000 We knew that Manchin was playing games.
00:03:26.000 We knew that Manchin didn't want to see this bill passed for a while.
00:03:31.000 We thought that there might be a scaled-down version of it.
00:03:35.000 But I think months ago, Manchin and Biden and Cinema and Democrats knew that this bill was probably $3 trillion too ambitious.
00:03:48.000 So instead, I think there was this skit that was being played on the American people the last couple weeks.
00:03:55.000 Look how big this bill is. 0.99
00:03:57.000 Progressives then can say to their base, Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, we did everything we could, but those stupid Joe Manchin types stopped us. 0.95
00:04:09.000 You see, so Warren and Sanders can go back to their base and their voters and say, we tried to spend $3 trillion, but it's not because of me, it didn't happen. 0.91
00:04:20.000 But instead, what we are seeing, and it's been unfolding in the last couple of hours, is what the real agenda is.
00:04:30.000 You see, I think this is not new.
00:04:34.000 I think that Joe Manchin, Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, I think that they knew that they were not going to be able to come to a consensus on the big spending bill.
00:04:45.000 And so you must then ask yourself the question: what is the most important thing for the Democrats if it isn't $3 trillion to go subsidize illegal immigration?
00:04:56.000 So some of you might be saying, well, Charlie, it's gun confiscation.
00:04:59.000 Yep, that's important.
00:05:00.000 Not the most important, though.
00:05:02.000 Maybe it's amnesty, very important to the internationalist regime, but not the most important.
00:05:09.000 Maybe it's pandering to the tech oligarchs. 0.65
00:05:13.000 Very important, but not the most important.
00:05:16.000 Charlie, maybe it's shredding the U.S. Constitution.
00:05:19.000 Very important, but not the most important.
00:05:21.000 Charlie, maybe it's making Roe versus Wade the law of the land.
00:05:25.000 Very important, but not the most important.
00:05:26.000 No, no, no.
00:05:27.000 The issue that connects all the other issues is how do we choose who gets power?
00:05:35.000 It's the most important question.
00:05:38.000 How do we go about choosing who's in positions of power?
00:05:44.000 How do we allocate what the sovereign is, the people, how do we distribute our power, our individual people's sovereignty, to people that then have the FBI at their disposal?
00:05:59.000 What I'm talking, of course, about is elections.
00:06:03.000 Elections are the most important issue to the left.
00:06:08.000 This is why at every single turn, if you watch very carefully and closely, there's almost an Operation Mockingbird type agenda.
00:06:18.000 And this is on the front page of the Washington Post continually.
00:06:21.000 They are a threat to our democracy.
00:06:24.000 We must do everything we can to protect our democracy.
00:06:27.000 Our democracy is under attack.
00:06:29.000 Now, of course, we are not a democracy.
00:06:31.000 We are a constitutional republic with democratic means of electing our officials.
00:06:36.000 Major difference.
00:06:37.000 We've gone through that in great detail.
00:06:38.000 We don't have to do that again today.
00:06:40.000 You guys can go back in the archives of the Charlie Kirk show or if you're really interested, go to charlie4hillsdale.com.
00:06:45.000 We have a lot of good videos.
00:06:46.000 We've partnered with Hillsdale College to explain that.
00:06:49.000 Massive difference between a republic and a democracy.
00:06:52.000 It bothers me anytime people say that we're a democracy.
00:06:54.000 We aren't.
00:06:54.000 We're a republic.
00:06:56.000 And one of the most important indicators of where the other side wants to go is you can see in the activism, the lawsuits, and the energy of the left that elections are the most important thing.
00:07:13.000 Dailywire.com writes, the Senate is tabling Joe Biden's signature bill back better legislation until next year, overstall the negotiations with moderate Democrats.
00:07:24.000 Therefore, Chuck Schumer is likely to push a vote on the Build Back Better plan until next year.
00:07:30.000 However, Schumer is still holding out hope for action on voting rights this year.
00:07:38.000 They're hoping for an agreement on rules changes between four moderates who have been meeting.
00:07:44.000 Joe Manchin, John Tester, Tim Kaine from Virginia, and Angus King from Maine.
00:07:52.000 Now, the Build Back Better plan has been tabled, but instead, a now unknown, non-defined bill that is basically a laundered version of HR1.
00:08:06.000 You can rest easy that the Build Back Better, IRS expansion, spying on your bank account, trillions of dollars we don't have, that bill is likely dead.
00:08:18.000 However, I think it was all a game to try and see like, well, we can't agree on spending, but in D.C., we can agree that voting rights in our democracy, regardless of the political party that you're in, is something that we can build consensus on.
00:08:36.000 I could just see Lisa Murkowski, who came out in favor of the John Lewis Voting Rights Act, say, oh, yeah, I agree with that.
00:08:43.000 Mass mail and voting.
00:08:45.000 No more voter ID, the nationalization of our elections.
00:08:48.000 No more state-run audits.
00:08:50.000 Forget county or states that actually run their elections.
00:08:54.000 What we are seeing in the last couple of weeks and what we're seeing unfold in real time was a massive game where they say, well, we might not be able to agree on tax rates or on spending, but the one thing that Mitt Romney and Lisa Murkowski and Liz Cheney and the moderate Democrats and Kirsten Sonoma and Joe Manchin can agree on is that every person has a right to vote, as if that's not already the case.
00:09:17.000 We have voting months in most states.
00:09:19.000 We have ballots going every single direction.
00:09:21.000 We don't even know where they're going.
00:09:24.000 You see, Democrats know that if they can fundamentally change our elections permanently through a federal national takeover, to almost institutionalize what Zuckerberg did with $420 million from the Center for Technology and Civic Life, then all of a sudden they can get gun confiscation.
00:09:40.000 Roe versus Wade can be the law of the land.
00:09:42.000 Green New Deal, Build Back Better.
00:09:44.000 And so I believe Schumer is smarter than we give him credit for.
00:09:49.000 I think Schumer is craftier than we give him credit for.
00:09:53.000 He knew that Build Back Better, whatever, was not going to come easy with Manchin.
00:09:58.000 Instead, put up a fake fight and retreat to the consensus thing that can bring everyone together.
00:10:04.000 The nationalization and federal takeover of your elections.
00:10:11.000 On a daily basis, people are being inundated with ads for overpriced boxers with some sort of slick ad campaign, and some would say innuendos.
00:10:19.000 Personally speaking, I prefer to keep this topic very private, but I'm happy to tell you about a company that is a great product and shares our values.
00:10:25.000 I want to tell you about Under TAC, the only men's basic brand that is unapologetically Christian, pro-American, pro-military, very, very proud, pro-2A.
00:10:34.000 They put comfort and functionality first by integrating a quick release fly and secret pocket in extra-wide waistband for cash or tactical necessities.
00:10:42.000 They're also anti-bacterial, anti-pilling, and the moisture wicking fabric is super soft and comfortable.
00:10:47.000 Under TAC is durable, fade-resistant, shrink-resistant, and ultra-lightweight.
00:10:51.000 Here's the best part.
00:10:52.000 They are 30% less expensive than the competition.

00:11:17.000 We know that the American culture has been hyper-racialized in recent years. 0.89
00:11:24.000 There's a recent picture that I think has been verified.
00:11:29.000 It is in Denver at Centennial Elementary School.
00:11:34.000 Denver public schools are now promoting racially segregated playtime for equity.
00:11:40.000 This is in Denver, Colorado.
00:11:42.000 Families of color get their own separate playground night where white people are not allowed to send their kids. 0.87
00:11:49.000 So white people are not allowed to go to this playground while families of color are only allowed. 0.56
00:11:59.000 That's at Denver Public Schools.
00:12:02.000 Now, the hyperracialization of the American culture has many different motives, the people that are doing this.
00:12:10.000 Partially, it gives meaning to people that are godless and don't know their place in the world, their place in the cosmos.
00:12:17.000 And so, because of that, the kind of hyper racial activism makes people feel really good.
00:12:28.000 Secondly, the motivation is also about power.
00:12:33.000 It really kind of lowers the sophistication of any argument or conversation.
00:12:42.000 It immediately kind of turns conversations into tribalism or tribal arguments.
00:12:49.000 Tribal, of course, comes from a Latin term, which means tri.
00:12:53.000 There were three different tribes that used to be fighting amongst each other, all just based on skin color, on immutable characteristics, things they couldn't change.
00:13:03.000 It's actually where we get the word tribalism for, triangle, triune, tribalism.
00:13:10.000 But the most obvious reason why they want everyone to be talking about race all the time and the alleged racial inequalities that exist in America, which is all a bunch of nonsense, is because they've wanted to use that conversation and that narrative as a means to the end of changing our voting laws.
00:13:31.000 It's always been about changing our voting laws and the other things as well.
00:13:37.000 Trying to lessen the sophistication of our political discourse, trying to give power to people that otherwise would not have it, trying to crush the weak on behalf of the strong.
00:13:48.000 It also creates beautiful smokescreen for, quite honestly, morally questionable corporations and companies and private actors that they're going to say, well, we're giving $100 million to BLM.
00:14:01.000 And then people just move on.
00:14:02.000 Like, oh, yeah, who cares if you're dumping opioids in the heartland or who cares if you're spying on citizens or lying about your products? 0.62
00:14:09.000 Or who cares if your product gives people cancer as long as you give $100 million to BLM? 0.99
00:14:15.000 We're going to kind of move over you and focus on the rural Christians in Oklahoma because they're the real problem. 0.92
00:14:24.000 And so what we have here with the racial component, and it all makes sense when you put it together, is that they want to use that now as an excuse, using the legacy of John Lewis, is what they say, to permanently change our voting laws. 0.97
00:14:44.000 Now, we went into great detail what HR1 was, House Resolution 1.
00:14:49.000 It was an unprecedented federal takeover of our elections.
00:14:53.000 Joe Manchin voted against that.
00:14:55.000 So HR1, as it was, is dead.
00:14:59.000 That doesn't mean that they can't rebrand it, that they can't put a new name on it, change a couple things, and then put it up for a vote again.
00:15:07.000 I mean, HR1 would permit voters with DMV records to register online, which of course would allow illegals to be able to register.
00:15:14.000 And for all of you listening right now in New York City, illegals can now vote in New York City elections.
00:15:21.000 It's incredible.
00:15:22.000 You illegally enter a country, New York City says, yeah, why don't we give you voting rights?
00:15:28.000 The death of the citizen, Victor Davis-Hansen would say.
00:15:32.000 HR1 would require each state to provide an online voter registration application.
00:15:36.000 It would give everyone a mail-in ballot, whether they requested or not.
00:15:38.000 It would create a whole new federal board of elections.
00:15:40.000 It would require states to use automatic voter registration.
00:15:43.000 It would require states to allow any eligible voter to vote by mail.
00:15:48.000 It just goes on and on and on and on.
00:15:49.000 And so Manchin shot that down.
00:15:52.000 But the deal that I think that was privately brokered between Manchin and Cinema and Schumer and Pelosi and Biden is that, look, we're going to fight publicly over Build Back Better.
00:16:03.000 We're going to wrestle about the multi-trillion dollar bill of new IRS agents and $3 trillion, even though we have inflation, but that's probably not going to be a meaningful outcome.
00:16:14.000 But instead, I think there have been private vote negotiations going on for the John Lewis Voting Act while the kind of, let's say, theatrical Broadway show of the Build Back Better cable news appearances were happening in the shadows.
00:16:35.000 You've had all these Democrats starting to concoct a new federal takeover of elections.
00:16:40.000 And we're going to go into what that would look like and how we stop it.
00:16:46.000 Look, stocks are at all-time high.
00:16:48.000 People are saying things are going well, but you know they aren't.
00:16:50.000 Interest rates are at zero, and the government just printed $5 trillion.
00:16:54.000 What could possibly go wrong?
00:16:56.000 Consumer confidence just hit a 10-year low and inflation hit 6.8%, with parts of the United States seeing rates as high as 8%.
00:17:03.000 Something is not adding up.
00:17:04.000 Inflation is here, everybody, and you've got to do something about it.
00:17:07.000 Put some of your assets into precious metals, and it will keep your money away from the volatility markets and inflation to let you sleep at night.

00:17:40.000 There was a new article out this morning that ranked the top news podcasts of 2021.
00:17:48.000 And the Charlie Kirk show made the cut.
00:17:50.000 I think there was only 10 or 15 that were mentioned, right?
00:17:53.000 It was a big deal.
00:17:55.000 And most of them were like New York Times.
00:17:59.000 Bongino was there and many other friends, and we were listed as well.
00:18:02.000 So thank you guys for helping with that.
00:18:04.000 It's a very competitive space, and we have been doing this a long time.
00:18:07.000 The fact that we get, we're in that kind of top sphere is a big deal, and it's thanks to you.
00:18:12.000 So thank you, thank you, thank you.
00:18:14.000 Okay.
00:18:15.000 The HR1, as we know it, is dead.
00:18:20.000 But basically, they're rebranding it, putting a label on it, the John Lewis Voting Rights Act.
00:18:28.000 Now, we're being told that the John Lewis Voting Rights Act is a much different bill.
00:18:35.000 And it's not fair to say that it's a substitute for the For the People Act.
00:18:42.000 But it's not, they're not done deliberating or adding things to it.
00:18:46.000 But let me just tell you one part of the John Lewis Voting Rights Act that is cause for a fire alarm.
00:18:57.000 It would require categories of changes in state or local election procedures to go through a process called pre-clearance.
00:19:10.000 Essentially, you must get approval from the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division before being implemented.
00:19:20.000 So let's just stop there.
00:19:22.000 They want to make anti-racism, wokeism, diversity, equity, inclusion a roadblock to any state or municipality changing their voting laws.
00:19:36.000 I have to hand it to the Democrats.
00:19:38.000 This is a brilliant, Machiavellian legislative strategy.
00:19:45.000 There's other things in the John Wright's Voting Rights Act that, quite honestly, really doesn't bother me.
00:19:51.000 New rules for polling places on Indian reservations, requiring public notice for changes to voting laws, like really kind of boring stuff.
00:20:00.000 But then kind of fit in the middle of it is like, oh, now I see what they're trying to do here.
00:20:06.000 And it's stuck in the middle of all this.
00:20:08.000 And by the way, they might add parts of HR1 onto this.
00:20:11.000 And so on this show, we have been unafraid to cover one of the best books ever written, Age of Entitlement, by Christopher Caldwell.
00:20:23.000 Christopher Caldwell factually and I would say very precisely offers skepticism towards the Civil Rights Act that was passed in the 1960s.
00:20:34.000 Now, the media always misrepresents me when I talk about this.
00:20:38.000 I'm not saying that every part of the Civil Rights Act was unnecessary, nor am I saying that there is not circumstantial racial conditions that need to be fixed.
00:20:47.000 That has never been my position, nor is it the position of Christopher Caldwell, by the way, if you actually read his book, because he gets slandered and misrepresented intentionally.
00:20:55.000 Instead, what Christopher Caldwell argues in Age of Entitlement, historically and factually, is that the moment to try and fix and adjust the nation's laws to fulfill the promise of the Declaration of Independence that all men are created equal created an entirely new regime that allowed the eradication of private property, the intimidation of the fellow citizens.
00:21:21.000 And if you actually look into the public polling between whites and blacks at the time, both wanted moderate and then measurable changes, not bold, dramatic, over-the-top new institutions of the federal government.
00:21:36.000 And what happened, it was a whole new division, the Justice Department of the Civil Rights Division, if you will, that was created.
00:21:43.000 Now, at first, it really didn't get a lot of coverage.
00:21:46.000 At first, this kind of anti-racism movement was met with open arms from members of both political parties.
00:21:53.000 That is, until basically, and Barry Goldwater, to his great credit, he was wrong about a lot.
00:21:58.000 He was right about a lot, though.
00:21:59.000 Barry Goldwater, towards the end of his life, became very pro-abortion, very bizarrely.
00:22:03.000 But Barry Goldwater was so right about warning about the ramifications of what the 1964 Civil Rights Act could mean for private property.
00:22:14.000 Now, some of you have asked in recent days and months, you've emailed us, freedom at charliekirk.com, Charlie, how can the government come into a private business, like in New York, for those of you listening on WABC right now, and mandate that people wear masks?
00:22:30.000 The answer is easy.
00:22:31.000 We decided to end the idea of a truly private business with the Civil Rights Act in the 1960s. 0.90
00:22:39.000 Now, there's a legitimate argument for why that was necessary.
00:22:43.000 The legitimate argument is that there were people that owned businesses that were actively not serving, that were not offering services to people of skin colors they didn't like. 0.97
00:22:53.000 That's an evil thing.
00:22:55.000 I'm not defending that, obviously.
00:22:59.000 But what was never quite thought out or mapped out was how could this possibly go wrong?
00:23:08.000 How could allocating this sort of centralized government power under a regime of anti-racism or diversity, equity, inclusion, how could this ever be misused?
00:23:21.000 And so, one example, and then we get the affirmative action movement that came not far after in the 1970s, which of course is the lowering of standards for certain people of skin color and the act of discrimination against other people of skin color, in particular Asians and white students.
00:23:40.000 So, what Christopher Caldwell talked about in Age of Entitlement is he predicted that there would be a whole new enforcement arm of the United States federal government that will grow in power, stature, and credibility that could be used for any means whatsoever.
00:23:59.000 And it goes back to what Cicero wrote and what James Madison wrote.
00:24:03.000 Cicero, a one-year Roman council, had his head cut off by the second Roman triumphant, was incredibly brilliant.
00:24:11.000 I think he died right before Caesar.
00:24:14.000 And Caesar had a beautiful, I mean, Cicero had a great quote: the more laws, the less justice.
00:24:20.000 James Madison had a similar quote where he said, we can never allow the laws to become so voluminous that they suffocate liberty.
00:24:27.000 I'm paraphrasing James Madison.
00:24:33.000 The point is that if you have all these laws on the books, then the power is in the administrative state.
00:24:41.000 The power is in the technical regime because they get to choose what laws they enforce.
00:24:48.000 And more specifically, they get to choose who they enforce them against.
00:24:53.000 And so the John Lewis Voting Rights Act, which is now going to be the new replacement, if you will, the legislative laundering that is happening.
00:25:02.000 So HR1 is dead, but then they resurrect it, redress it, put a new branding package on it, name it after somebody that is in great esteem with a lot of people in the ruling class in D.C., John Lewis, which makes it very hard to vote against.
00:25:21.000 They know what they're doing here.
00:25:23.000 They know that they want to try to have a branding package that any Democrat that dares votes against the John Lewis Voting Rights Act, that they're going to have to answer to Joy Reed of why they voted against the John Lewis Voting Rights Act.
00:25:38.000 So essentially, the one component of this bill that we know of, while a lot of these negotiations are occurring, is that you are going to need approval from the Justice Department Civil Rights Division to change any of your state or local voting laws.
00:26:01.000 So let's say that Maricopa County or in Arizona, they want to say, you know what?
00:26:06.000 We want to strengthen our signature verification in Arizona.
00:26:10.000 It's too weak.
00:26:12.000 You're going to have to go in front of the Justice Department, Merrick Garland's mom and dad's targeting Justice Department.
00:26:21.000 You're going to have to go in front of the lackeys of Eric Holder and Loretta Lynch.
00:26:25.000 You're going to have to go into the Obama sycophants that run the Justice Department in the Civil Rights Division, which is the lowest level of Dante's Inferno equivalent of the American bureaucratic state.
00:26:38.000 You're talking about people that are the most, let's say, anti-Western, anti-American, angry people you can imagine.
00:26:50.000 They are sue happy against Republicans.
00:26:53.000 And you're going to have to go in front of this Commissar Commission and say, hey, before we change this law in Arizona, can we get your permission?
00:27:03.000 Now, mind you, I do think this is wildly unconstitutional.
00:27:09.000 It says very clearly, I think in Article 4, 5, the Constitution.
00:27:17.000 No, it'd be Article 2, Article - I don't know.
00:27:19.000 You can get it.
00:27:20.000 There's seven articles.
00:27:21.000 I forget which one.
00:27:22.000 That states determine the manner and the setting of how elections are undertaken and electors are chosen.
00:27:32.000 States run the elections.
00:27:33.000 Remember, the states created the federal government.
00:27:36.000 the federal government to not create the states, but who knows where the Supreme Court would rule on the John Lewis Voting Rights Act.
00:27:43.000 I'm sorry, Article 1, Section 4, Clause 1.
00:27:45.000 Thank you.
00:27:47.000 And what the Democrats have done here is by having this kind of fake debate around Bill Backbatter that they knew was dead on arrival, by making it seem that HR1 is dead, all of a sudden they're going to have some sort of negotiation by creating a Justice Department Soviet show trial,
00:28:06.000 thumb up, thumb down type approval that if you want to put in voter ID, purge your voter rolls, get dead people off the rolls, limit the mail and balloting custody, you have to get approval from the Justice Department.
00:28:20.000 Can I be blunt?
00:28:22.000 John Lewis Voting Rights Act would kill the entire state-based election integrity movement.
00:28:30.000 The John Lewis Voting Rights Act, which is now, according to Schumer, the top priority of the Senate and the top priority of the House, would make it impossible to do audits, get to the bottom of elections, control custody of ballots.
00:28:43.000 Essentially, instead of taking over like HR1 would, it would say that you need the rubber stamp from the Justice Department to conduct elections the way you want to.
00:28:58.000 It is a brilliant, sinister, and secret backdoor plan to undermine our elections.
00:29:10.000 The same Department of Justice that attacks parents, the same Department of Justice that colludes with the National School Board Association.
00:29:19.000 I recently received a question from a listener.
00:29:21.000 She wanted to know if it was possible to avoid digestion problems by eating only healthy organic food.
00:29:26.000 It was a nice thought, but unfortunately, it's just not possible.
00:29:29.000 You see, your natural ability to digest food declines with age.
00:29:32.000 This is because your body produces fewer enzymes, which are proteins responsible for digesting food.
00:29:37.000 Fewer enzymes mean more difficulty digesting food.
00:29:40.000 Even organic foods won't provide enough enzymes to properly digest them.
00:29:43.000 This is especially true if you cook your food because cooking kills enzymes.
00:29:47.000 This is why you have digestion problems even after a healthy meal.
00:29:50.000 Your body just can't produce enough enzymes to get the job done.
00:29:53.000 That's why you need to supplement with a high-quality enzyme supplement that could be a huge help.
00:29:57.000 I personally recommend Mass Zymes by Buy Optimizers.
00:30:00.000 It is the best-in-class supplement loaded with full-spectrum enzymes for digesting protein, starches, sugars, fibers, and fats.
00:30:06.000 Taking Mass Zymes daily helps top off your enzyme levels and replace the enzymes your body is no longer producing.
00:30:13.000 Listen, life is too short to suffer from digestion problems.
00:30:16.000 If you want freedom from your food, especially this holiday season, go to MassZymes Risk-Free and experience the magic of high-quality enzymes.
00:30:25.000 For an exclusive offer, my listeners can go to masszymes.com/slash Kirk, M-A-S-S-Z-Y-M-E-S.com slash Kirk.
00:30:34.000 Again, that's masszzymes.com/slash Kirk.
00:30:37.000 MassZymes.com slash Kirk.
00:30:42.000 So if you live in Arizona, it's very important to communicate to Mark Kelly and Kirsten Cinema that you will not tolerate a vote on the John Lewis Voting Rights Act.
00:30:55.000 And by the way, don't even call it that.
00:30:57.000 Just call it the acronym. 0.93
00:30:59.000 Say John J L V A K A, the death of states rights and election integrity as we know it.
00:31:08.000 But if you live in Georgia, go contact a teenager who calls himself a U.S. senator named John Ossif. 0.55
00:31:15.000 Contact the anti-Semite, Raphael Warnock. 0.75
00:31:19.000 But another senator is kind of popping onto the scene, which is a very good sign, by the way.
00:31:24.000 This guy was a sycophant the first six months of the Joe Biden regime, but he is bouldering onto the scene.
00:31:33.000 Now, he's a J.B. Pritzker type.
00:31:36.000 And so he hard to miss.
00:31:39.000 And so I'm talking, of course, John Tester from Montana.
00:31:44.000 Tester is someone that can be won over.
00:31:47.000 Tester represents a very conservative state and an increasingly conservative state.
00:31:53.000 And he wins because he has kind of this like blue dog appeal.
00:31:56.000 And I bring money back to Montana.
00:31:57.000 Montana's a strange state like that.
00:31:59.000 But Tester voted against Joe Biden's vaccine mandate.
00:32:03.000 Tester has also said, I don't know about this voting rights thing.
00:32:06.000 I'm not crazy about this.
00:32:08.000 So if you live in Montana, contacting John Tester's Senate office and saying, we're not going to put up with this.
00:32:15.000 You can call it voting rights.
00:32:17.000 You can call it all these different things.
00:32:19.000 That is nothing more than camouflage in disguise for what we know it really is, which is the disintegration and depletion of fair, free, honest, and transparent elections.
00:32:33.000 Other states, obviously West Virginia is in play.
00:32:37.000 And do not discount Nevada, Cortez Mastro.
00:32:43.000 She's going to have a tough race in Nevada up against Adam Laxalt.
00:32:48.000 There's a lot of Democrats that are at risk, everybody.
00:32:50.000 Gene Shaheen in New Hampshire.
00:32:53.000 There's a lot of states where this issue is not popular.
00:33:00.000 The point is that you have to contact your elected officials.
00:33:03.000 And here's what you could do if you're in North Dakota, South Dakota, and you have nothing but Republican representatives.
00:33:09.000 Every Republican representative needs to get read into what the true agenda here is, which is not Build Back Better.
00:33:16.000 I think it's fair to say that's smokescreen.
00:33:19.000 We know it's in it.
00:33:20.000 It's awful. 1.00
00:33:21.000 It's garbage. 1.00
00:33:22.000 Don't vote for it. 1.00
00:33:23.000 Thank you for not supporting it.
00:33:25.000 But now we need to pivot and have a zero tolerance policy for this John Lewis Voting Rights Act, which is nothing more than a snake in the grass to try and kill the election integrity movement, to try and destroy the questioning of mass mail and balloting.
00:33:46.000 That is the goal of this next federal takeover of elections.
00:33:51.000 But every Republican needs to be in an active posture right now.
00:33:55.000 And so if you live in North Dakota, you live in South Dakota, if you're listening right now in Tennessee or Kentucky, I don't think any of those senators would vote for this, but they need to not be taken by surprise.
00:34:07.000 They need to not even entertain and issue some sort of milquetoast press release.
00:34:11.000 Oh, yes, we stand for democracy.
00:34:12.000 However, this bill goes too far.
00:34:14.000 No.
00:34:15.000 Do not even give them the footing as if there is a problem that we need to expand the entire apparatus of our elections.
00:34:24.000 Instead, we need to do the exact opposite.
00:34:27.000 We need to say, we know what this is.
00:34:29.000 You're trying to destroy states' rights.
00:34:31.000 You're trying to destroy individual sovereignty.
00:34:33.000 And you're trying to torpedo this bottom-up people-centered election integrity movement.
00:34:40.000 Build Back Better is dead.
00:34:42.000 Merry Christmas.
00:34:44.000 But a federal takeover of elections is imminent.
00:34:47.000 Happy New Year.
