00:00:00.000 Hey, everybody, today on the Charlie Kirk Show, Stephen Miller joins the program to discuss potential ways that we could indict the current regime.
00:00:08.000 It's about time we fight back, and he puts the plan forward.
00:00:12.000 Michael Seifert from Public Square joins us to talk about how Target missed their earnings call and more.

00:00:35.000 Buckle up, everybody.
00:00:36.000 Here we go.
00:00:37.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
00:00:39.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.
00:00:41.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
00:00:44.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
00:00:48.000 I want to thank Charlie.
00:00:49.000 He's an incredible guy.
00:00:50.000 His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.
00:00:58.000 We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to.
00:01:04.000 Fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:06.000 That's why we are here.
00:01:10.000 Brought to you by the Loan Experts I Trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at AndrewandTod.com.
00:01:19.000 Joining us now is United States Representative Greg Stube, who's now filed articles of impeachment against the traitor Joe Biden.
00:01:27.000 Congressman Stube, thank you for taking the time.
00:01:29.000 Tell us about your articles of impeachment.
00:01:31.000 Yeah, Charlie, thanks so much for having me.
00:01:33.000 Well, we, you know, with all the different investigations that the House had done, I broke it up into four.
00:01:38.000 And articles.
00:01:39.000 And I encourage your listeners to actually read what I filed because I laid out all the evidence that supports all these different articles.
00:01:47.000 The first was related to bribery and extortion charges, everything from the payments from Burisma to the millions of dollars.
00:01:54.000 Now we know for a fact, based on the financial subpoenas that the Oversight Committee has done, that there's over $20 million that has been paid to the Biden family.
00:02:05.000 And then we have obstruction of justice charges, articles related to the IRS whistleblowers.
00:02:11.000 And there's Evidence now that Hunter and Joe basically shared bank accounts.
00:02:18.000 And so Comer's now going to do subpoenas on Hunter's actual bank accounts.
00:02:24.000 We'll know more about that.
00:02:25.000 But a lot of these payments that the big guy sent to his son for $5,000 for prostitution, for drugs, for all these different things, if you or I were joining our money to get involved in a prostitution ring or drug trafficking or purchasing cocaine, then we could be charged.
00:02:46.000 As well.
00:02:47.000 So I threw that in there as well.
00:02:49.000 There's so much evidence now of the crimes that have been committed.
00:02:53.000 And as you know, the president can't be criminally charged while he's in office.
00:02:56.000 This is the only tool that the House has.
00:02:58.000 I think it's long past time based on all of the evidence that we now have.
00:03:02.000 It's not Russian disinformation.
00:03:04.000 The Democrats started the laptops, Russian disinformation.
00:03:04.000 It's interesting.
00:03:07.000 And now, if you watch the weekend shows, guys like Raskin are saying, oh, well, there's no evidence that Joe actually took money.
00:03:14.000 Well, I can tell you if my wife took $20 million for me to take official votes on Ukraine or something like that.
00:03:19.000 That's still bribery, corruption, and extortion.
00:03:22.000 That's exactly right.
00:03:23.000 So, you're right.
00:03:24.000 Joe Biden will not be indicted as president.
00:03:26.000 But what you're referencing is actually a longstanding Department of Justice policy.
00:03:30.000 It's not a law.
00:03:32.000 They broke their policy, by the way, when they used to have a policy, an internal DOJ standard that you do not indict people running for the presidency.
00:03:41.000 So, they could, they just won't.
00:03:43.000 But you are correct.
00:03:44.000 Joe Biden will not be indicted by the federal government anytime soon.
00:03:47.000 So, let me ask you this is a really comprehensive document you've put together.
00:03:51.000 People can see it on your official website.
00:03:53.000 House.gov website, stubate.house.gov.
00:03:58.000 What is the kind of cue us in?
00:04:02.000 Temperature check with your Republican colleagues.
00:04:05.000 What are you hearing?
00:04:06.000 What are you seeing?
00:04:06.000 Are we going to get a vote on this?
00:04:08.000 And most importantly, do you think that this could eventually be approved by the House of Representatives?
00:04:14.000 Well, let me talk process first, just so people understand how it works.
00:04:18.000 So, the Judiciary Committee under the U.S. Constitution has the jurisdiction for impeachment proceedings.
00:04:24.000 So, now at this point, my bill will be referred by the Speaker to the Judiciary Committee.
00:04:28.000 It'll be in the hands of Chairman Jim Jordan to make that decision.
00:04:31.000 I'm assuming that the speaker is obviously going to be involved in that decision as well.
00:04:36.000 And then the Judiciary Committee would complete and go through an actual impeachment inquiry where we would bring in witnesses based on all the evidence that we have and go through the inquiry and then have a vote before it would go to the House floor.
00:04:51.000 Now, politically, I've seen comments that Speaker McCarthy has made publicly that he's much more open to an inquiry.
00:04:58.000 In the beginning of this Congress, obviously, it wasn't something that anybody was focused on.
00:05:03.000 They wanted to focus on the investigations and see what evidence comes out of the investigations.
00:05:08.000 And I support that.
00:05:08.000 That's a reasonable conclusion instead of rushing in and making mockery of the impeachment process like the Democrats did the two times that they impeached President Trump.
00:05:16.000 So I understand that.
00:05:17.000 Let's do it the right way.
00:05:18.000 Let's go through the process.
00:05:19.000 But we now have the evidence.
00:05:21.000 He's committed crimes, we have evidence of those crimes.
00:05:23.000 And it's time for an impeachment inquiry to start.
00:05:26.000 It seems as though the speaker is much more open to it based on the comments that he's made.
00:05:30.000 And now that I've filed these articles, other members are starting to get asked, hey, where are you on impeaching the president?
00:05:36.000 And the articles that I've seen have been all supportive of starting the inquiry.
00:05:42.000 But it takes 218 votes on the floor.
00:05:44.000 But I think of the Judiciary Committee, which they will do a good job if the inquiry does begin, laying the case before the American people.
00:05:51.000 I can't see how a Republican could sit back and look at the evidence, evidence of crimes that have been committed, and not vote to impeach President Biden.
00:06:00.000 So, in private, you don't have to say any names.
00:06:03.000 What is the prevailing objection you receive from your colleagues that do not want to impeach Joe Biden?
00:06:09.000 Conservatives all support it.
00:06:11.000 You know, you have your moderates in the House, those that are much more moderate and in moderate districts, maybe districts that Joe Biden won.
00:06:19.000 You know, they say things like I saw the comments that Mitch McConnell made after I filed them, where it's, oh, you know, the country doesn't want to go.
00:06:25.000 Let's not divide the country.
00:06:27.000 Well, the country's already divided.
00:06:28.000 They impeached Trump over a phone call.
00:06:31.000 We have actual facts and evidence of crimes that were committed while he was vice president, actions he took while he was president, acting on all the payments that his family members made.
00:06:41.000 It would be a dereliction of duty on Congress and the House not to do something with this type of evidence of crimes being committed.
00:06:49.000 I think we can get those more moderate members there when they look at the facts, but obviously you look at the facts and then there's a political determination that these members have to make based off their districts.
00:07:02.000 But I can't see how you can't vote for an impeachment based on the facts that we have before us.
00:07:09.000 Just taking what happened to President Trump out of this, this isn't a tit for tat.
00:07:12.000 This is facts that we have, evidence that we've collected, corroborating financial evidence of witness testimony.
00:07:18.000 Devin Archer's testimony last week corroborated a lot of these financial documents that we've received and the information that we have.
00:07:25.000 And it's long past time to move forward.
00:07:27.000 Yeah, I totally agree with that.
00:07:29.000 And I don't see the counter argument.
00:07:32.000 I mean, some people say, well, it might hurt us in the next election.
00:07:35.000 I'll be honest, Congressman, I'm so sick of hearing that.
00:07:37.000 I mean, how many times do we have to restrain our courage just because it might hurt us in the next election?
00:07:43.000 I think that our voters are not going to show up for us if we do not act with conviction.
00:07:48.000 Your reaction?
00:07:49.000 I agree 100%.
00:07:50.000 I mean, just look what happened when Paul Ryan was Speaker.
00:07:53.000 I wasn't elected to Congress yet.
00:07:55.000 I came in in 18, and the American people put Republicans in charge because they said they were going to get rid of Obamacare.
00:08:01.000 They were going to fix immigration and the border and all these issues.
00:08:05.000 And they didn't do it because they, you know, it wasn't a strong conservative issue and they didn't want to put their moderate members on the board.
00:08:12.000 And they lost the House because of it.
00:08:14.000 We lost the House because we didn't go up there and say we were going to do what we were going to do.
00:08:18.000 And the American people have put Republicans in charge, albeit by a small margin, but we have the gavels right now.
00:08:24.000 We have the power in the House right now.
00:08:26.000 There's overwhelming evidence of the corruption of this White House.
00:08:29.000 The complete weaponization of the DOJ and the FBI, and it's time to act.
00:08:33.000 And you are exactly right.
00:08:35.000 If we don't act and we turn a blind eye to all of this because, like what McConnell said, oh, well, we don't want to divide the country and we don't want to cause problems and that kind of thing, or whatever his quote was that he didn't think impeachment was good for the country right now, we're going to lose the majority in 2024.
00:08:52.000 And what we have to do right now is hold the majority in the House, take the majority in the Senate, and win the White House in 24, or I feel very Afraid of the future of our country with another four years of Biden?
00:09:06.000 Yeah, no, I think that's right.
00:09:08.000 I mean, there's this question of why is our base, why doesn't our base show up in kind of one off elections?
00:09:15.000 You know, the question of Ohio and all this when Trump is not on the ballot.
00:09:19.000 And I think you know this that our most loyal voters have lost total faith in DC Republicans.
00:09:27.000 You being excluded, obviously, with your boldness introducing this article.
00:09:31.000 Do your colleagues realize how hated they are by base Republicans currently?
00:09:38.000 You know, I think conservatives obviously realize where the base are.
00:09:42.000 They know where the base is.
00:09:44.000 It's interesting if you go into a moderate Republican district, how they feel that they have to capitulate their principles to the Democrats or, you know, all these different policies, progressive policies, and that's not what they got elected to do.
00:09:58.000 Yeah, I just, it's really maddening to me.
00:10:01.000 We don't have an opposition party, but you are one of the few that is standing.
00:10:08.000 Let me tell you about a company I love that embodies the spirit of freedom and innovation Christensen Arms.
00:10:14.000 Christensen Arms makes its rifles right here in America.
00:10:17.000 But it's not just about how they're made.
00:10:19.000 The company is a true leader in firearm technology.
00:10:23.000 Christensen Arms invented the carbon fiber barrel back in 1995.
00:10:27.000 And today, their state of the art barrels continue to provide unmatched accuracy for everyone out there exercising their Second Amendment rights.
00:10:34.000 Their innovation doesn't stop at the barrel, though.
00:10:36.000 Christensen also pioneered an ingenious new carbon manufacturing process called flashed.
00:10:42.000 Forge technology or FFT to deliver the lightest and most durable rifle you'll ever own.
00:10:48.000 As a Christensen Arms rifle owner myself, I could probably say these rifles are heirloom quality, so you can pass down a lasting legacy of freedom and true American craftsmanship for generations to come.
00:11:00.000 So, my fellow patriots, join me in supporting Christensen Arms.

00:11:13.000 Christensen Arms, defining the future of firearms and keeping America strong.
00:11:20.000 Ron DeSantis has fallen in third place.
00:11:23.000 Vivek Ramaswamy is ahead of him in some polls, and Chris Christie is ahead of him in New Hampshire.
00:11:28.000 I think Ron DeSantis is America's greatest governor, and he's been running a disappointing presidential campaign.
00:11:34.000 I don't like when people don't perform their best.
00:11:36.000 I don't like when good governors start to really look, let's just say, I'm going to be nice.
00:11:46.000 Just not, not, not.
00:11:48.000 Not excellent on the national stage.
00:11:52.000 Congressman Stubbe, you endorsed Donald Trump instead of Governor DeSantis, and you were with President Trump in Iowa this last weekend.
00:12:00.000 Tell us about it.
00:12:01.000 Yeah, I mean, it was absolutely amazing.
00:12:03.000 You know, you read polls, and the polls in Iowa, I think, have Trump ahead by 20 points.
00:12:07.000 Polls nationwide in Florida have him ahead by 30 points.
00:12:11.000 Polls in my district have him ahead by more than 20.
00:12:15.000 But it's a different reading of polls, and it's very different being there with that crowd.
00:12:20.000 And we were at a pork chop station, and I was standing next to a guy flipping pork chops with the president next to me.
00:12:26.000 And I asked him, hey, you know, I know Governor DeSantis was here earlier today.
00:12:30.000 Was there a similar crowd?
00:12:33.000 And he's like, the guy at the stand was like, there's no comparison.
00:12:36.000 There were 118,000 people at the fair that day.
00:12:39.000 When we drove in in the motorcade, there were 12 blocks of people trying to get in.
00:12:45.000 And everywhere the president went, he was completely surrounded by thousands upon thousands of people.
00:12:51.000 Very different reception.
00:12:52.000 From what Governor DeSantis got while Governor DeSantis was at that same pork chop tent that I was at, people started chanting, We want Trump, we want Trump.
00:13:01.000 So, if, and I'm obviously a Floridian, so getting out to another state and seeing that is very interesting to me.
00:13:08.000 I would expect that here in my district and in Florida, but to see that in Iowa on full display is just shows the complete level of excitement and support that President Trump has.
00:13:19.000 Yeah.
00:13:19.000 So, in your district in Florida, would you say that President Trump has more support than Governor DeSantis currently?
00:13:26.000 Yeah, 100%.
00:13:27.000 We did a poll a couple months ago, and I think he was ahead 25 points, 20 points.
00:13:32.000 So I represent all of Sarasota County, Charlotte County, and the northern part of Lee County.
00:13:37.000 And it's not close at all, which is interesting being from Florida, because you would think that, look, people support the things that Governor DeSantis has done as governor.
00:13:47.000 But when you put DeSantis up against Trump, there's just no comparison.
00:13:51.000 Yeah.
00:13:52.000 And so this primary is unfortunately going to get.
00:13:57.000 Before it actually comes to some form of completion.
00:14:01.000 You know Governor DeSantis pretty well, or you're obviously in the same state as him.
00:14:04.000 What advice would you have?
00:14:05.000 I mean, do you want to see him keep running?
00:14:07.000 Some people are saying he should just go become a terrific governor of Florida and not continue to muddy the waters and spend a billion dollars unnecessarily.
00:14:16.000 You know, at this point, you would, putting my political hat on, you would look at this.
00:14:20.000 Since he got in the race, you would think his numbers would be increasing, and they're dramatically decreasing.
00:14:26.000 I think to save political capital, it would be wise to get out and endorse and support President Trump, just given the numbers, because the longer your campaign languishes, and I think the DeSantis campaign is now thinking, well, these debates that are coming up, that could be the turning point.
00:14:45.000 They were hoping that Iowa would be the turning point, and it turned out to be very bad for their campaign.
00:14:50.000 So you get through the debates, and that's not a turning point, and the numbers keep going down.
00:14:55.000 At some point, you need to save face.
00:14:57.000 He just got, I mean, he hasn't even been a year in re elect.
00:15:00.000 He just got elected last year to governor for a four year term.
00:15:03.000 I would have hoped that he would have concentrated on the great state of Florida and the things that they were doing here, support President Trump, and then he'd have a couple of years after President Trump and he could run because Trump only has one more year.
00:15:15.000 But I'm not giving him political advice.
00:15:17.000 Somebody else is.
00:15:18.000 But at this point, with the way that the numbers are going for him, I would think that the best thing politically to do to save some face and some political capital and some appreciation so that we don't have this division within the Republican Party, it's clear.
00:15:34.000 If the election were held today, Donald Trump would win overwhelmingly.
00:15:37.000 I don't see that changing.
00:15:38.000 Maybe I'm wrong, but I just don't see that changing.
00:15:41.000 And I was less than five months away.
00:15:43.000 Craig Stewby, excellent.
00:15:45.000 And we support your effort to impeach Joe Biden 100%.
00:15:48.000 Thank you so much.
00:15:49.000 Thank you, and thanks for having me.

00:16:57.000 Very important guest, Stephen Miller joins us.
00:17:00.000 Stephen, thank you for taking the time.
00:17:02.000 You tweeted, quote, a Republican DA could indict both Biden and Majorcas for human trafficking.
00:17:07.000 Explain.
00:17:08.000 Well, it's an open and shy case.
00:17:10.000 So if you look at what has happened on the southern border since January of 2021, you have both a conspiracy.
00:17:19.000 To violate the laws of the United States.
00:17:21.000 So, a systematic conspiracy by Biden, Majorcas, other officials in the government, Garland would be involved in some of this here too, to violate the immigration laws of the United States to enable illegal immigrants and the human traffickers and drug cartels who manage the border to bring in limited numbers of people and contraband into the United States.
00:17:42.000 And so, you also have the suspension of ICE interior enforcement.
00:17:46.000 So, most criminal aliens and virtually all illegal aliens are now exempt from ICE enforcement.
00:17:51.000 And so, ICE is not able to arrest.
00:17:53.000 The overwhelming number of illegal aliens that it would encounter on a daily basis, including those who are presently incarcerated or prison or jail.
00:18:01.000 So it's a vast, far reaching conspiracy to immunize human traffickers and criminal cartels from the federal laws of the United States.
00:18:10.000 So you could both charge human trafficking, you could charge a conspiracy to defraud the United States because of the lies that have been told to Congress and further into the conspiracy, you could charge seditious conspiracy because obviously this represents an attack against and an assault on.
00:18:26.000 The very existence of the United States itself, you could charge deprivation of civil rights because you're violating the 14th Amendment rights of all American citizens.
00:18:35.000 And then you could also probably do a RICO charge as well based on the fact that you have had this vast scheme involving all these predicate acts in order to perpetrate this offense against the United States, which again is the RICO statute is all about combining all of these acts as part of a continuing conspiracy.
00:18:55.000 So easily you could stitch together all these offenses to have, you know.
00:18:59.000 Basically, hundreds of years in prison if you were to put them side by side.
00:19:02.000 We must understand we are in the middle of an active measure unlike anything deployed in America before.
00:19:07.000 An active measure.
00:19:08.000 This is an active psychological, legal, cultural, and political blitzkrieg, a cultural revolution that started from 15 days or so to spread.
00:19:16.000 It hasn't stopped.
00:19:16.000 Stephen Miller, you're suggesting here real tangible indictments that could happen.
00:19:21.000 Who?
00:19:21.000 Local DAs on the Rio Grande Valley, Texas?
00:19:24.000 Who could bring forth these indictments?
00:19:25.000 Tell us.
00:19:26.000 All the statutes I mentioned, of course, are federal statutes.
00:19:29.000 Then obviously you have local statutes that apply to.
00:19:32.000 All manner of smuggling, trafficking, child abuse, child endangerment.
00:19:40.000 There's a number of statutes that would imply on a local level, too.
00:19:44.000 So you both have a predicate for any local DA to file charges, as well as the predicate for a Department of Justice in 2025 to do the same.
00:19:56.000 And it's important to note here that if you look at, for example, the Georgia case, you have a prosecutor in that case who is citing as facts or asserting, claiming as facts, in the indictment events that occurred.
00:20:12.000 Thousands of miles outside of Fulton County.
00:20:17.000 So, again, following that same precedent, even if many of the facts and many of the allegations in the indictment occurred far out of your precinct, that wouldn't be a hindrance at all as long as you have a single asserted victim in your precinct.
00:20:36.000 So, basically, anywhere in the country where there's been a single victim of any crime related to what's happened both in our southern border and with the decimation of ICE.
00:20:45.000 The rest of it just involves all the other elements of the conspiracy that could have happened anywhere from Washington, D.C. and beyond.
00:20:52.000 So anybody could do it, really.
00:20:53.000 Any process.
00:20:54.000 I mean, you look at the map of Texas, there's no lack of counties, is what you're saying.
00:21:00.000 I mean, you're talking about all across the southern border or the adjacent counties, you could find a DA or a sheriff.
00:21:06.000 And so are you recommending, Stephen, that we indict a sitting president or at least the head of DHS?
00:21:12.000 I'm totally open for it, by the way.
00:21:13.000 I think that we should have multiple counties come together and start indicting them for human trafficking.
00:21:18.000 All the stuff you just said.
00:21:20.000 I don't see any counter argument against it, especially given now that local DAs basically can act as roaming prosecutors against political dissidents.
00:21:29.000 Yes, that's clearly the precedent that has been established and that's been set.
00:21:33.000 Except the difference here, of course, which is an important one, is that in the Georgia case, you have innocent people being charged with the crime of speech, thought, and regular political activity.
00:21:48.000 In this case, you're talking about filing charges for.
00:21:51.000 What really amounts to the largest human trafficking and child trafficking operation in modern history, with dead bodies piling up all over the place.
00:22:01.000 The border is basically a war zone.
00:22:04.000 I mean, you have, and you've talked about it, and we know how many people are dying on both sides of the border as a result of this.
00:22:10.000 So it really is one of the most sinister things that's been done in American history, what's happening on the border right now.
00:22:17.000 I would also make the point that there's a long list, a long, long, long list of.
00:22:24.000 Chargeable crimes on a whole host of fronts.
00:22:27.000 Let me give you another example.
00:22:30.000 Using the theory in the Georgia case, all of the politicians on the left who have conspired for years to obstruct voter ID, who have conspired for years to obstruct citizenship verification, who have conspired for years to obstruct any effort to engage in meaningful review about the validity of ballots, to clean voter rolls, to purge from the voter rolls, lapsed.
00:22:55.000 Voters are not domiciled in the states anymore.
00:22:57.000 You could easily come up with a wide range of criminal charges related to the systematic effort to sabotage election integrity.
00:23:06.000 And again, you could apply both the RICO statute under this new precedent.
00:23:10.000 You could also, again, do, in a federal context, civil rights charges, conspiracy charges, and so on.
00:23:17.000 Same would apply to those involved in the censorship of American speech in 2020 and beyond.
00:23:23.000 Obviously, that's a conspiracy to deprive Americans of their civil rights.
00:23:28.000 The same would apply to all the individuals involved, as many others have pointed out, in the Russia hoax, all the individuals involved in shielding the public from knowledge about the Hunter Biden laptop, which is also election interference.
00:23:41.000 I mean, again, this is a you could you could you start adding all this stuff up, there's there would be hundreds of criminal cases.
00:23:48.000 Well, we that's what we need.
00:23:49.000 We need a blitzkrieg, we need to flood the zone, we need the kitchen sink.
00:23:52.000 Playtime is over.
00:23:53.000 If this overwhelms you, resign.
00:23:55.000 So, this is interesting.
00:23:56.000 While you were going through that, Stephen, so let's just go through it.
00:23:59.000 The DA in Star County, Texas, in Webb County, Texas, in Maverick County, Texas, Kinney County, Texas, in Valverde, Texas, Terrell, Texas, Brewster, Texas, Pecos Town, I'm mispronouncing that, Presidio, Jeff Davis, Hudspeth.
00:24:13.000 These are all border counties.
00:24:14.000 I don't know if all their DAs are Republican.
00:24:16.000 I'm sure some of them are, or they're open minded for the rule of law.
00:24:19.000 And so, Stephen, let's just play this out specific.
00:24:21.000 Let's just take Star County, Texas, right on the border where human trafficking occurred, enabled by Mayorkas and Joe Biden.
00:24:30.000 Are we saying that Star County, Texas?
00:24:32.000 I don't know who the DA is, and I don't mean to pick on that person, but they're going to probably become very famous soon because now they're being mentioned on our show.
00:24:39.000 Whatever, you could pick any one of these, right?
00:24:40.000 Hidalgo or Cameron.
00:24:42.000 Are you suggesting that that local DA begins an investigation and indicts the sitting secretary of the Department of Homeland Security?
00:24:51.000 What I'm saying is that under the legal precedent that has been established, they could absolutely convene a grand jury, begin interviewing witnesses, sending out subpoenas, and ultimately that could culminate in the grand jury voting.
00:25:03.000 To indict a number of federal officials, up to and including the President of the United States, particularly because all of the post January 6th presidents have all thrown out and continue to throw out presidential immunity.
00:25:17.000 And the further point on this is that a lot of the left wing legal opinions are saying, well, anything that's done that we argue or that we think is being done because it helps you in an electoral sense, we're now saying it's a special carve out.
00:25:35.000 From executive immunity, presidential immunity, and all the other immunities that would apply.
00:25:41.000 And so, under that same theory, everything that the left is doing on immigration is clearly for their intended electoral benefit.
00:25:47.000 Everything they're doing on voting laws and administration is clearly intended for their electoral benefit.
00:25:51.000 Everything they're doing on censorship, same applies.
00:25:54.000 And so, you go down the list.
00:25:55.000 I mean, look at the student loan bailout that Biden did, clearly intended for his electoral benefit.
00:26:03.000 That's half a trillion dollars.
00:26:05.000 In fraud, in violation of federal law.
00:26:08.000 And you can even go back in time to everybody involved in DACA, which was done right before the midterms in 2012, or sorry, before the general election in 2012, which is still in effect at this time and has resulted in completely illegal and the largest minor smuggling operation in American history.
00:26:30.000 So, but to answer your original question, I mean, clearly, clearly there's more than a sufficient.
00:26:37.000 Factual predicate to convene a grand jury and begin issuing subpoenas.
00:26:41.000 Oh, yeah.
00:26:41.000 I mean, there's no lack here.
00:26:42.000 I mean, you look at Texas, I'm just looking at the map of the counties of Texas.
00:26:46.000 We have dozens of counties that are some of the reddest counties in the country where these crimes have occurred.
00:26:54.000 And they should say, look, we're not being political, but the new standard is this DAs are now empowered to go after leading presidential candidates and their allies.
00:27:02.000 And let's just be very clear.
00:27:04.000 Even at the worst accusation against Donald Trump, you say, oh, my goodness.
00:27:08.000 You know, he was trying to subvert democracy, blah, blah, blah.
00:27:10.000 Hold on a second.
00:27:11.000 They are actively involved in having cartel members' guns and drugs being trafficked into the country to change the electoral composition and change the demographics of a country, and you're illegally trafficking them.
00:27:24.000 Why is the right afraid of this?
00:27:26.000 Why has this not happened before?
00:27:28.000 Why does it take two of us to kind of figure this out?
00:27:31.000 What's going on?
00:27:32.000 Well, I think that the most polite answer I could give would be to say the following, which is that conservatives want nothing more than to be able to live in a country in which people can disagree disagreeably, everybody can be friends, people can all agree on the fundamentals, the basics.
00:27:50.000 George Washington is great, James Madison is great, we can all be friends and we can all be happy and we can all work in a small business and everything can be wonderful and great.
00:27:58.000 And they do not want to accept.
00:28:00.000 Or acknowledge the fact or the reality that that country is gone.
00:28:03.000 It's been gone for a while, and that they're facing a political movement that seeks to destroy and annihilate everything that they can do.
00:28:11.000 You're reading off our psalm sheet.
00:28:12.000 And it'll all be over.
00:28:13.000 But they'd rather live in their dream until they are deprived of any possibility of not seeing the horror that's happening than face the horror before it's too late.
00:28:22.000 Most Republicans are no different than trans activists.
00:28:24.000 They live in a delusion.
00:28:27.000 Stephen, thank you so much.
00:28:29.000 Thank you.
00:28:32.000 Michael Seifert is with us.
00:28:33.000 Download the Public Square app, Play Cut 73.
00:28:36.000 On a call with media, Target CEO Brian Cornell pointed to macro pressures, including inflation, for tempering sales, but also, quote, negative guest reaction to our pride collection.
00:28:47.000 He also continued to say negative reaction to our pride assortment and added after adjusting mid quarter to address safety concerns, the business recovered steadily in July.
00:28:56.000 We wanted to make sure we're focused on the safety of our teams and the safety of our guests.
00:29:01.000 Once we took those actions and addressed the situation, we certainly saw things normalize.
00:29:06.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:29:07.000 Somehow, like you guys are under attack.
00:29:07.000 Safety.
00:29:09.000 You guys are groomers.
00:29:11.000 You guys empowered groomers.
00:29:13.000 Target was all about the predatory behavior of children.
00:29:16.000 They enabled it.
00:29:17.000 Michael Seifert, Target is on the run.
00:29:19.000 Your reaction?
00:29:21.000 Well, it's sad when businesses actually no longer care about profits.
00:29:25.000 They're more committed to their ideological indoctrination of the next generation along perverted lines than they are on providing quality business.
00:29:34.000 Because the crazy thing about that earnings call with analysts.
00:29:38.000 With Brian Cornell, the CEO, as well as the Chief Growth Officer and the CFO, is that they all doubled down.
00:29:43.000 In fact, Brian Cornell said, and I quote, that they would still continue to celebrate Pride and other heritage months, but that the company would be more mindful of timing, placement, and presentation.
00:29:55.000 And the Chief Growth Officer said that this reaction is a signal for us to pause, adapt, and learn, but that they're still going to celebrate inclusivity and celebration of these Pride heritage holidays.
00:30:06.000 They're just going to try to do it with more broad based appeal.
00:30:09.000 So, these companies have learned nothing.
00:30:11.000 Target, obviously, is the most recent example of that, but that goes for Bud Light as well.
00:30:14.000 That's Ben Jerry's.
00:30:15.000 That's Listerine.
00:30:16.000 The list seems endless these days of companies that are more committed to their ideological position than they are on providing good business.
00:30:23.000 So, I think that what we are seeing right now is just the beginning of further decimation of Target's top line, but that ultimately these woke policies throughout their company will affect the bottom line as well.
00:30:34.000 It's not a good day over it.
00:30:37.000 I agree.
00:30:38.000 So, Michael, I got a challenge for you.
00:30:39.000 What is the pro American Competitor to Skittles.
00:30:44.000 Skittles comes out with trans black lives matter.
00:30:50.000 The media, this is how the media frames it literally on the packaging.
00:30:53.000 Skittles' new packaging for pride is enraging the anti LGBTQ right.
00:30:58.000 These people are exhausting.
00:31:00.000 So, what do we have a competitor yet?
00:31:01.000 A public square of Skittles?
00:31:04.000 The non woke Skittles?
00:31:05.000 We've got about, oh yeah, actually go to public square, search candy, and you should find over 30 different options.
00:31:11.000 In fact, there's one, I can't remember the name of the company, but there's one that somebody just referred to us the other day.
00:31:16.000 They joined the platform.
00:31:17.000 And apparently, it's like a healthier version of literally Skittles made without the dyes and the high-dose corn syrup, et cetera.
00:31:23.000 So, we've got some amazing businesses on the platform.
00:31:26.000 Check it out.
00:31:26.000 And that goes for pretty much any industry you're looking for.
00:31:28.000 When Ben Jerry's went woke and decided to celebrate Indigenous Peoples Day or whatever, even though they are on quote stolen land and yet wouldn't give it back up on July 4th, we actually highlighted some amazing ice cream companies on our platform, one of which out of Tennessee called Katie's Ice Cream experienced a record day of profits in response to the Ben Jerry's backlash.
00:31:49.000 So the money is moving, consumer spending is shifting, and we're glad to be at the tip of the sphere.
00:31:53.000 Yes, Skittles said Black trans lives matter.
00:31:57.000 By the way, Skittles is really bad for you.
00:31:59.000 It's like pure poison.
00:32:00.000 So they're just giving you a reason not to take it.
00:32:03.000 Literally on their packaging, Black Trans Lives Matter.
00:32:07.000 So we're starting to see the change in the parallel economy, but we must keep the pressure on.
00:32:11.000 How's EveryLife going?
00:32:11.000 Remind our audience about it, Michael.
00:32:13.000 Yeah, check out EveryLife.com.
00:32:15.000 We are the nation's first and only unashamedly pro life diaper company.
00:32:19.000 They're high performing diapers and wipes for every little miracle.
00:32:22.000 We created this company in response to what we learned last year was an overwhelmingly pro abortion baby care market.
00:32:30.000 Which makes zero sense morally or economically.
00:32:33.000 It would be as if me saying, you know what?
00:32:36.000 I want to start a shoe company for men, but in order to advance my product lines, I'm going to have to advocate for the termination of men.
00:32:43.000 It makes no sense.
00:32:44.000 So what we wanted to do is we wanted to create a baby brand that is pro life, pro family, and believes that every child is a gift from above that deserves to be protected and celebrated.
00:32:52.000 And every life is going pretty phenomenally.
00:32:54.000 In the first 19 days of our every life launch, this brand did over $300,000 in sales from consumers that are very excited about putting purpose behind their purchases and I would actually encourage folks in response to the Maui fires, head to everylife.com.
00:33:09.000 If you partner with us in our Buy for a Cause program, you actually have the opportunity to match donations with us to a church in Maui called King's Cathedral that's donating diapers.
00:33:20.000 Already in 48 hours, we've been able to donate over 33,000 diapers to families in need in Lahaina, specifically after these devastating fires.
00:33:30.000 So we're trying to put our money where our mouth is in every life.
00:33:34.000 Every life is doing more for the babies of Maui than Joe Biden.
00:33:38.000 God bless you, Michael Seifert.
