00:02:39.000 Join us for the People's Convention.

00:02:41.000 This is a new ballgame, everybody.

00:02:43.000 You send a message.

00:02:45.000 We play to win.

00:02:47.000 Register now at tpaction.com/slash peoples.

00:02:58.000 We are on verdict watch here.

00:02:59.000 So if something comes down, if the smoke emerges from the Manhattan courthouse, we will be here and analyzing all of it.

00:03:10.000 The jury deliberations are ongoing.

00:03:11.000 Just one quick note on that.

00:03:13.000 They keep on asking questions of the judge because I don't think they understand what the heck is going on here.

00:03:19.000 They keep on coming back.

00:03:20.000 They say, oh, do they have a verdict?

00:03:21.000 And they're saying, can you tell us, Mr. Your Honor, what exactly he's being tried for again?

00:03:29.000 Because you got to imagine, right?

00:03:30.000 So you got these 12 folks that are just everyday New Yorkers, obviously tilting liberal.

00:03:37.000 And based on their news consumption habits, there might be one or two patriots in the group, but we don't know.

00:03:43.000 And you got to imagine all 12 of them are deliberating.

00:03:46.000 And there's obviously a foreman, which usually has some jury experience.

00:03:50.000 And probably the conversation probably began with, so what is he being tried with?

00:03:56.000 And then them trying to explain it.

00:03:59.000 Just 12 commoners trying to make sense of this would be quite something.

00:04:07.000 We know that's happening because they keep on coming back asking for more questions from the judge.

00:04:11.000 So we are on verdict watch.

00:04:13.000 This should be the best of time for Joe Biden.

00:04:17.000 If you were independently looking at this election as a political science aficionado, as someone who has done research of politics for the last 100 years, and I told you the following criteria was involved: you have one candidate who is facing 700 years in federal prison.

00:04:37.000 This candidate was previously a president and did not necessarily leave at the highest point of his presidency.

00:04:46.000 You have him currently in trial facing charges.

00:04:53.000 You have all of the ghosts of Donald Trump past being resurrected from Michael Cohen to Stormy Daniels to Hope Hicks.

00:05:05.000 It's very similar, by the way, to the final episode of Seinfeld.

00:05:09.000 Very similar.

00:05:10.000 Where they just keep on, oh, there's Babu Bott, there's Newman, there's every character that they've seen, and they just go on trial at the end of the Seinfeld series.

00:05:21.000 Very similar.

00:05:23.000 You have another candidate, the incumbent president, who is sitting on an unprecedented war chest, raising the most money that we have seen of a presidential campaign in history.

00:05:35.000 That candidate has just gone up in an ad blitz in key battleground states, a $25 million ad blitz in the key battleground states.

00:05:46.000 You would think, with that criteria laid out, that this would be the best of time for Joe Biden.

00:05:52.000 Only one candidate can campaign right now, and that's Joe Biden.

00:05:56.000 Donald Trump is relegated to ice box, legal discussions, rallies in the Bronx, visits to Bodegas, truth social posts, and maybe a weekend rally in Minnesota here or there.

00:06:12.000 Maybe.

00:06:14.000 This should be the best of times.

00:06:16.000 But instead, Joe Biden is on increasingly fragile and shaky ground.

00:06:23.000 Joe Biden, of all the places he could visit, yesterday he decided to go into the base of the base of the Democrat Party to try and rally black voters.

00:06:35.000 The equivalent would be if Donald Trump went to Midland, Texas to try and rally rural voters.

00:06:44.000 Now, mind you, in 2020, when Donald Trump was overseeing COVID and there was Floyd Apalooza happening, Donald Trump actually did do rallies in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

00:06:57.000 He did do rallies in redder parts of the country because he needed to try to consolidate his base.

00:07:04.000 Joe Biden is seeing now leaking from the base of the base of the Democrat Party.

00:07:13.000 So he goes into urban Philadelphia to try and rally the people that he needs most, black voters.

00:07:24.000 Let's start here.

00:07:25.000 This is Joe Biden reading from a teleprompter.

00:07:27.000 And by the way, he drew like no crowd whatsoever.

00:07:30.000 And I'm not saying this braggadociously, but if I announced, if Charlie Kirk announced a rally in downtown Philadelphia, we would draw a bigger crowd than Joe Biden.

00:07:42.000 I know this because we have been doing, we've been trying to do an event at Drexel or UPenn, and we sold out the tickets almost immediately as soon as we put up the ticket link.

00:07:50.000 Bigger than what the president is drawing in downtown Philadelphia.

00:07:54.000 It's becoming very clear that Joe Biden is singularly focused on Pennsylvania first.

00:07:59.000 He has visited Pennsylvania seven times.

00:08:03.000 Let's play a cut here.

00:08:04.000 Let's play cut 96.

00:08:06.000 What do you think he would have done on January 6th if black Americans had stormed? 0.97

00:08:12.000 Think about this. 0.89

00:08:14.000 What do you think would have happened if black Americans had stormed the Capitol? 0.98

00:08:19.000 I don't think he'd be talking about pardons.

00:08:22.000 It's the same guy who wanted to tear gash you as you peacefully protested George Floyd's murder.

00:08:30.000 What do you think?

00:08:31.000 Peacefully protested George Floyd's murder and mostly peaceful burning down of our inner cities and mostly black and Hispanic-owned businesses, by the way, were looted, were rioted, were burned down.

00:08:45.000 For Joe Biden, the vibes are off.

00:08:48.000 For Joe Biden, he's looking for any constituency that he can attach himself to other than people that work for Northrop Grumman or Pfizer or AstraZeneca or Moderna or Johnson Johnson.

00:09:01.000 The polling right now for Democrats is disastrous.

00:09:04.000 And now polling isn't everything.

00:09:06.000 The polling for Trump on election day in 2020 for both his races and in 2016, he massively overperformed.

00:09:12.000 But if you're a Democrat, that means you've gotten used to seeing polls when you're way up.

00:09:16.000 The polls say the opposite and they are outright panicking.

00:09:20.000 Not only that, but the polls consistently show perhaps the worst sign for Democrats.

00:09:26.000 Young people, blacks, and Hispanics are fleeing Biden in bigger and bigger numbers. 0.94

00:09:32.000 That is their firewall. 0.96

00:09:34.000 That is what prevents this thing from getting completely out of control.

00:09:37.000 Those are the groups that bail.

00:09:40.000 If they bail Democrats, they see the bottom fallout.

00:09:45.000 So what's going on here?

00:09:46.000 Well, a major reason the Democrats' pitch isn't working is they do not have narrative control like they used to.

00:09:53.000 Remember when the press spotted a MAGA hat in Tom Brady's locker room in the 2016 race?

00:09:59.000 Remember how Tom Brady initially was truthful and said, yeah, I'm friends with Trump.

00:10:02.000 He's great.

00:10:03.000 And then he had to walk that back.

00:10:04.000 That was so 2016.

00:10:07.000 Almost nobody with a public reputation could support Trump.

00:10:10.000 It was just unthinkable.

00:10:12.000 It would ruin your career, or at least it guarantee the press would try.

00:10:16.000 In 2020, same thing.

00:10:18.000 The racial reckoning of Floyd Apalooza forced everybody to get on board.

00:10:23.000 But today, it's completely different, way different.

00:10:26.000 It's not that most celebrities and public figures like Trump, not even close, we aren't delusional.

00:10:33.000 It's that they're allowed to now support Trump because we have now pierced through the menace of what we call woke cancel culture.

00:10:43.000 If we go through the list and we are going to detail it, from Cardi B to rappers like Waka Flaka and Lil Pump, not exactly people I know, from Dennis Quaid to Shark Tank host Kevin O'Leary to Stephen A. Smith to Michael Rapapore to The Rock to Jerry Seinfeld.

00:11:02.000 We are seeing A-list Hollywood cultural figure defections.

00:11:07.000 I think part of this, and we cannot understate the significance, is Elon Musk purchasing Twitter and liberating it.

00:11:16.000 Marrative control is not what it used to be.

00:11:18.000 They went so hard in 2020.

00:11:21.000 They were so focused on defeating Trump at all costs that they're having difficulty replicating what they did.

00:11:29.000 And we are dealing with an increasingly desperate Democrat Party.

00:11:33.000 We have Newt Gingrich on to discuss that later this hour.

00:11:36.000 And understand that even if some of these celebrities and cultural figures are not fully on board with Trump, they're voicing their disdain for Biden.

00:11:44.000 And what does Biden do?

00:11:46.000 He goes sends a drum corps to try to rally voters in Philadelphia.

00:11:53.000 After a long day, no one wants to spend an hour in the kitchen making dinner.

00:11:57.000 Well, how about quick and easy barbecue?

00:11:59.000 No, not takeout.

00:12:00.000 I'm talking juicy steaks, succulent chicken or fish, and healthy grilled veggies cooked on your own Soler infrared gas grill.

00:12:07.000 Soler grills are the hot, fast grills that heat up to 1,000 degrees in just three minutes, even in the dead of winter.

00:12:14.000 And that heat locks in juices and flavors and grills your food faster.

00:12:18.000 A veteran-owned, multi-generational family business.

00:12:21.000 Each Soler grill is made in America out of quality commercial-grade stainless steel.

00:12:27.000 It may be the last grill you'll ever need to buy.

00:12:30.000 It's an incredible product.

00:12:59.000 So the cultural figures are starting to defect.

00:13:02.000 The landscape is shifting, everybody.

00:13:05.000 Whereas before it was verboten to say negative about Biden or to support Trump, the 2024 landscape is completely different.

00:13:15.000 And by the way, don't fall for this nonsense.

00:13:18.000 Yesterday, you have this black campaign event, and then out of nowhere, there's this fake story that they've resurrected that Donald Trump said the N-word and they have a tape of it. 0.87

00:13:30.000 These are desperate people.

00:13:31.000 Do not put it past them.

00:13:34.000 If all of a sudden an audio clip of Donald Trump saying the N-word emerges and it was used made by artificial intelligence and it was a deep fake, do not fall for it.

00:13:46.000 An AI clip or tape, I guarantee you, one of these maniacs is going to try to do that soon.

00:13:53.000 These are very, very desperate people.

00:13:57.000 You would think that when the candidate you're trying to beat is facing a trial, you'd think that, hey, his numbers are going to go down.

00:14:08.000 It is the opposite.

00:14:09.000 Here is Dennis Quaid, a list actor.

00:14:12.000 Dennis Quaid has the upcoming Reagan film that is terrific, that is coming out.

00:14:17.000 Dennis Quaid, from Parent Trap to some of the biggest movies in Hollywood, he is a list.

00:14:24.000 Who is he voting for?

00:14:25.000 PlayCut 91.

00:14:26.000 What do you think of Trump?

00:14:28.000 I think I'm going to vote for him.

00:14:29.000 Really?

00:14:30.000 Yeah, in the next election.

00:14:32.000 It just seems to me, it just makes sense.

00:14:35.000 I was ready not to vote for Trump until what I saw is more than politics.

00:14:41.000 I see a weaponization of our justice system and a challenge to our Constitution, us as Americans, that I don't think we're going to have.

00:14:54.000 And, you know, Trump is the most investigative person probably in the history of the world.

00:15:01.000 And they haven't been able to really get him. 1.00

00:15:04.000 People might call him an asshole, but he's my asshole. 1.00

00:15:11.000 I want to play a one-two combo here, and this goes with this Politico.com story. 1.00

00:15:15.000 Biden's black voter troubles are setting off alarm bells.

00:15:20.000 This is first Cardi B, who's allegedly a very popular person.

00:15:24.000 93, she wants Donald Trump out in 2020. 0.96

00:15:28.000 Play cut 93.

00:15:29.000 Well, first thing first, let me give it a bug.

00:15:33.000 I just want Trump out.

00:15:34.000 You know what I'm saying?

00:15:35.000 I just feel like his mouth gets us in trouble so much.

00:15:39.000 And now, here is Cardi B, who drops support for Biden, saying that she will not endorse any presidents blaming Biden for funding two wars and for massive budget cuts, kind of all over the place here.

00:15:52.000 Play cut 92. 0.97

00:15:54.000 I'm an angry ass right now. 1.00

00:15:56.000 So, God forbid something happens to me or my family or some shit. 0.99

00:15:59.000 It's because the niggas is after me because I'm speaking the truth. 1.00

00:16:03.000 There's going to be an $120 million budget cut with schools, with libraries, and the cops.

00:16:09.000 This is getting out of hand.

00:16:12.000 We're really going.

00:16:13.000 They don't want to say the word, but we're going through a recession right now.

00:16:15.000 We really, really, really are.

00:16:17.000 Yeah, Joe Biden's talking about like, yeah, we could fund two wars.

00:16:21.000 We could fund two wars. 1.00

00:16:22.000 Motherfuckers talking about we don't got it, but we got it. 1.00

00:16:24.000 We're the greatest nation. 1.00

00:16:26.000 No, we're not.

00:16:27.000 We're going through some right now.

00:16:29.000 I don't give a f.

00:16:30.000 I'm not endorsing no fing presidents no more.

00:16:34.000 Next, here is a regime-created avatar.

00:16:38.000 He does whatever the powerful people want, and this is super telling.

00:16:43.000 Out of all of the cultural defections, this is the one that is the most interesting to me.

00:16:49.000 He introduced the Super Bowl by like screaming.

00:16:52.000 He does every major movie, Marvel movie you can imagine.

00:16:57.000 And that is Dwayne The Rock Johnson, play cut 94.

00:17:02.000 As a registered independent for years now with centrist ideologies, I do feel that Vice President Biden and Senator Harris are the best choice to lead our country.

00:17:14.000 And I am endorsing them to become president and vice president of our United States.

00:17:21.000 And now, Cut 95.

00:17:24.000 Am I happy with the state of America right now?

00:17:26.000 Well, that answer is no.

00:17:27.000 The endorsement that I made years ago with Biden was what I thought was the best decision for me at that time.

00:17:35.000 I felt like that then.

00:17:36.000 It's my job now to exercise my influence and share with this.

00:17:41.000 This is who I'm going to endorse.

00:17:43.000 Am I going to do that again this year?

00:17:45.000 That answer is no.

00:17:46.000 He would not do that in 2016 or 2020.

00:17:49.000 The game has changed.

00:17:51.000 Their punishment has weakened.

00:17:53.000 Meaning, the price or the cost of defecting from Biden, it's now acceptable.

00:17:59.000 And you might say, oh, we don't care about what celebrities think.

00:18:01.000 You should.

00:18:02.000 These are people with tens of millions of followers, and they are canary in the coal mines and predictors.

00:18:07.000 The Democrats are becoming more and more desperate.

00:18:12.000 Hey, everybody, Charlie Kirk here.

00:18:13.000 What an unbelievable start to 2024.

00:18:15.000 We had last month saving babies with pre-born by providing ultrasounds.

00:18:19.000 And we're doing again this year what we did last year.

00:18:21.000 We're going to stand for life because remaining silent in the face of the most radically pro-death administration is not an option.

00:18:26.000 As Sir Edmund Burke said, the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing, and we're not going to do nothing.

00:18:32.000 Your gift to pre-born will give a girl the truth about what's happening in her body so that she can make the right choice.

00:18:38.000 $280 can save 10 babies.

00:18:41.000 $28 a month can save a baby a month all year long.

00:18:44.000 And a $15,000 gift will provide a complete ultrasound machine that will save thousands of babies for years and years to come.

00:18:50.000 And will also save moms from a lifetime of pain and regret.

00:18:54.000 Call 833-850-2229.

00:18:56.000 That's 833-850-2229.

00:18:59.000 Or click on the pre-born banner at charliekirk.com.

00:19:02.000 That is charliekirk.com and click on the pre-born banner.

00:19:05.000 Also, save moms from a lifetime of pain and regret.

00:19:07.000 I'm a donor of this organization.

00:19:09.000 They're terrific.

00:19:14.000 Joining us now is Speaker Newt Gingrich.

00:19:17.000 Mr. Speaker, thank you so much for taking the time.

00:19:20.000 Mr. Speaker, help me understand.

00:19:22.000 Under conventional political rules, if somebody was in trial and is facing 700 years in federal prison, their political prospects would usually be dimmer, not brighter.

00:19:34.000 Yet with President Trump, it seems as if he is ascendant and more popular the more he goes through this law fair.

00:19:41.000 Help me understand, Mr. Speaker.

00:19:42.000 Well, I think two things.

00:19:44.000 First of all, President Trump is not a traditional candidate.

00:19:48.000 He is the champion of an American movement.

00:19:52.000 And that is a champion, every attack on him increases the intensity with which his supporters want to support him.

00:20:04.000 Second, every neutral lawyer who has looked at this case says that it is literally impossible.

00:20:14.000 This is an act of political violence.

00:20:17.000 It's not a legal proceeding.

00:20:19.000 It's a corrupt district attorney and a corrupt judge ganging up.

00:20:25.000 And I think people identify with the reality that if the judicial system can take a billionaire president of the United States who has already earned his nomination and is the frontrunner in the polls, if they can destroy him, they can destroy anybody.

00:20:44.000 And I think you're seeing a rallying far beyond Trump's normal base as people just start realizing how profoundly corrupt the New York system is and how profoundly corrupt Judge Mershon is.

00:21:00.000 And I'm actually doing a newsletter at Gingrich 360 that will come out tomorrow where I'm arguing that the American Constitution is on trial, not Donald Trump.

00:21:11.000 But for this jury to find him guilty, they have to decide to break the Constitution because all of his constitutional rights, deliberately written by the Founding Fathers, to protect us from these kind of corrupt judges, all of those have to be waved aside for this jury to decide that he's guilty.

00:21:33.000 Last evening, you had a very powerful clip with Sean Hannity.

00:21:36.000 I want to play cut 139 and have you elaborate on it.

00:21:39.000 Play Cut 139.

00:21:40.000 How minuscule his crowd was in Philly today?

00:21:44.000 It's like nobody wants to show up. 1.00

00:21:49.000 You think the average American is stupid? 1.00

00:21:52.000 I mean, you look at this doddering guy who clearly is only half the time in charge of what he's doing. 1.00

00:21:58.000 You look at his vice president, who may be cognitively fine, but she's just goofy. 0.99

00:22:03.000 And you say to yourself, what is it I'm supposed to get excited by?

00:22:07.000 And then you look at Biden inflation, which every American experiences every day, every time you go to the grocery store.

00:22:15.000 Every American.

00:22:16.000 So I don't care how many ads the Biden team runs.

00:22:20.000 They're trying to convince the rest of us that the things aren't as bad as we know they are because we're feeling in our pocketbooks.

00:22:28.000 Mr. Speaker, you go on then to say that we need to pray for President Trump and to, because he is going to be experiencing record amounts of opposition.

00:22:39.000 Mr. Speaker, are they going to try to assassinate President Trump?

00:22:42.000 Well, I don't want to say that, but I think that it is fair to say that he has more vicious hatred than any president since Abraham Lincoln, when the southern slave owners, of course, hated him because he was destroying their way of life by freeing the slaves.

00:23:03.000 And I think you have a similar, everybody who is in the establishment sees their entire way of life collapsing.

00:23:10.000 They see their lifetime commitment to a system rigged against the rest of us being destroyed.

00:23:17.000 They loathe Trump.

00:23:19.000 They don't just dislike him. 0.98

00:23:21.000 They loathe him.

00:23:23.000 And I do fear for him just in general.

00:23:26.000 I think that it's going to sink in presently that everything they've done didn't work.

00:23:33.000 I mean, they have done everything they can to try to destroy Trump, and it bounces off of him.

00:23:42.000 And the American people rally to him in increasing numbers, partly because the alternative is a cognitively collapsing, you know, doddering person.

00:23:54.000 I mean, if you watched the other day Joe Biden in Philadelphia, it was embarrassing.

00:24:00.000 And it's embarrassing to think the Chinese and the Russians and the North Koreans and the Iranians are watching this footage and thinking, this is the American commander-in-chief?

00:24:11.000 I mean, no wonder they think they can take advantage of us.

00:24:14.000 So if you're the left, you have to stop Trump or it's the end of your world.

00:24:21.000 And I think he needs our prayers and I think he deserves our prayers because in a sense, we're praying for the country.

00:24:28.000 We're not just praying for Donald Trump as a person, but we're praying for the one person who has had the courage and the endurance and the resilience to stand up to the entire establishment.

00:24:40.000 And I think that is historically just remarkable.

00:24:44.000 And I share those fears, Mr. Speaker, and it feels as if they are going to become increasingly desperate, and they are going to do unprecedented things to try and hold on to power.

00:24:58.000 It does, I don't want to spend our valuable time together speculating of what they might be.

00:25:02.000 It could be some very dramatic things.

00:25:04.000 Instead, Mr. Speaker, how then do we run the best possible campaign and movement now using this momentum to our advantage?

00:25:16.000 You've been around elections for quite some time.

00:25:19.000 There are 159 days from now till the day they count ballots.

00:25:25.000 There's 126 days till early ballots are sent out in key battleground states.

00:25:30.000 Mr. Speaker, what does the battle plan look like?

00:25:34.000 Well, I think it's essentially two things.

00:25:36.000 One, and you just said it perfectly, we have to win the first day of voting, and we have to win every day of voting.

00:25:43.000 We cannot wait around until the last day.

00:25:46.000 And I think we've learned that lesson in 2022.

00:25:50.000 And President Trump currently has been saying it exactly right.

00:25:54.000 We've got to get out there on the very first day in each state and be prepared to ballot.

00:25:58.000 And also, be prepared to monitor the voting booth to make sure, or the Dropbox or whatever is going on, to make sure it's not stolen.

00:26:08.000 Second, I think it's very important for us to have a positive platform and a positive message.

00:26:16.000 The American people are frightened.

00:26:19.000 They're tired.

00:26:21.000 They want to know that the future can be better.

00:26:24.000 By 73 to 27, they think we're on the wrong track.

00:26:28.000 They'd like to have a president who can get us on the right track.

00:26:32.000 And I think to the degree, and I thought in his speech in the South Bronx, President Trump really moved in the right direction, including saying that he would work with the Democratic governor of New York and the Democratic mayor of New York City because we have to all be Americans.

00:26:50.000 And I think that's a very key part of what he has to communicate.

00:26:53.000 This is not about a right-wing takeover or a Republican takeover.

00:26:58.000 This is about rallying the American people to save their country and to recognize that between China, Russia, Iran, and the American left, that we really are in grave danger of losing America and that we need to come together as a people to solve our problems and to preserve our country.

00:27:19.000 And I think that message could, in fact, give us the kind of majority that Nixon got in 1972 and Reagan got in 84.

00:27:29.000 Because I do think millions of Americans are hungry for some hope and hungry for a belief that we can continue to be a free country and continue to be the leading country in the world.

00:27:42.000 And the only person who can possibly do that is Donald Trump.

00:27:46.000 Final question here, Mr. Speaker.

00:27:48.000 Do you see any evidence that they are going to try and pull Joe Biden?

00:27:54.000 At this point, it seems as if his numbers are not moving despite major ad blitz.

00:27:58.000 What were your thoughts?

00:27:59.000 Well, I was very surprised.

00:28:01.000 I read Mark Halpern's Wide World of News newsletter every morning.

00:28:05.000 It's, I think, the best overview of politics in America.

00:28:09.000 And for months, he's been saying, no, they're not going to go get Biden off the ticket.

00:28:14.000 No, all my Republican friends are just delusional.

00:28:17.000 This morning he wrote, having watched Biden in Philadelphia, he thinks there may, in fact, be a serious effort to get him off the ticket.

00:28:24.000 What does that look like?

00:28:25.000 I'm sorry to interrupt, Mr. Speaker.

00:28:26.000 What does that look like?

00:28:27.000 A DNC fight beforehand, after?

00:28:30.000 You are the master historian here.

00:28:31.000 What would that look like?

00:28:33.000 Well, I think what it looks like is Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama getting everybody who matters in the party in one room and saying, okay, one of you is about to be the presidential nominee.

00:28:46.000 My guess is it'd be the governor of Pennsylvania and the governor of Michigan as a ticket and just saying, you know, we're going to impose it and going to the delegates.

00:28:55.000 I mean, they love Obama vastly more than they love Biden, and they fear Pelosi vastly more than they fear Biden.

00:29:05.000 And the combination, if they came in together and said, we're going to get Donald Trump unless we decide that we are going to replace Biden, I suspect they could pull it off.

00:29:17.000 It's tricky.

00:29:18.000 It's not easy.

00:29:19.000 But I just think that, and by the way, it's made harder because the Ohio law that says that you have to have a nominee weeks before the Democratic Convention means that they're going to probably put Biden on the Ohio ticket before the convention even occurs, which is just a little anomaly.

00:29:44.000 So I think it's still not likely, but in my mind, it went from being a 1% possibility to about a 10 or 15%.

00:29:53.000 And if he keeps decaying, and I think that's why they set up this first debate so early, if he can come through that first debate the way he came through the State of the Union, then everybody will calm down.

00:30:06.000 If he collapses, then I think there'll be a real movement to replace him.

00:30:12.000 Lots to think about, Mr. Speaker.

00:30:13.000 Thank you for the time.

00:30:15.000 The question is, do we want to run against Biden or do we want to run against Shapiro Whitmer?

00:30:20.000 Thank you so much, Mr. Speaker.

00:30:22.000 Well, I think we want to run for America.

00:30:25.000 I agree.

00:30:28.000 Are you ready to lose weight, but not sure where to start?

00:30:30.000 I understand.

00:30:31.000 I was right where you are two years ago.

00:30:32.000 Let me tell you why I chose the PhD Weight Loss and Nutrition Program.

00:30:36.000 First, Dr. Ashley Lucas has her PhD in chronic disease and sports nutrition.

00:30:40.000 Her program is based on years of research and is science-based.

00:30:43.000 Second, the PhD program starts nutrition.

00:30:45.000 There's so much more.

00:30:46.000 They know that 90% of permanent change comes from the mind, and they work on eliminating the reason you gain this weight in the first place.

00:30:51.000 There's no shortcuts, pills, or injections, just solid science-based nutrition and behavior change.

00:30:56.000 And finally, probably most importantly, I lost 30 pounds.

00:30:58.000 Look, they're amazing.

00:30:59.000 If you want to lose weight, you've got to go to myphdweightloss.com.

00:31:02.000 I was just texting with Dr. Ashley Lucas today.

00:31:18.000 Dr. Ashley Lucas has her PhD in chronic disease and sports nutrition.

00:31:22.000 Her program is based on years of research and is science-based.

00:31:25.000 Second, the PhD program starts nutrition, but it's so much more.

00:31:28.000 Go to myphdweightloss.com, myphdweightloss.com.

00:32:20.000 We will be going to the RNC in Milwaukee.

00:32:22.000 It's really tough for any of you guys to get tickets to that.

00:32:24.000 Almost impossible, actually.

00:32:26.000 That is locked down.

00:32:27.000 This is the place to go to in Detroit, Michigan.

00:32:31.000 tpaction.com slash peoples.

00:32:33.000 We'll be doing all of our shows.

00:32:34.000 Look forward to it.

00:32:36.000 Joining us now is Ben Burquam.

00:32:38.000 He is live on the streets of New York outside of the courthouse around some Trump faithful.

00:32:43.000 Ben, what is the vibe on the ground?

00:32:45.000 What are we looking at?

00:32:46.000 Ben, what is going on?

00:32:48.000 Hey, Charlie.

00:32:48.000 Well, let me just kind of start over here.

00:32:50.000 I want to introduce you to a few people.

00:32:51.000 This is my friend Lillian and her friends out here, originally from Taiwan and from China.

00:32:56.000 They came out here.

00:32:57.000 They've been out here for six weeks praying over the courthouse.

00:33:00.000 They're incredible.

00:33:01.000 What's your message to President Trump?

00:33:04.000 Trump will make it come first.

00:33:06.000 America first? 0.84

00:33:06.000 Yes. 0.84

00:33:07.000 Yes.

00:33:08.000 I love it.

00:33:09.000 And Charlie, this is my friend Josh Fulfur.

00:33:11.000 If you guys saw any of the videos where Robert De Niro, little Robert De Niro, was out here.

00:33:15.000 That was Josh who started that.

00:33:17.000 Josh, what's your message?

00:33:18.000 Why'd you come all the way out from California?

00:33:20.000 I wanted to see this, experience this, and see the injustice that's going on in the country.

00:33:26.000 Just the political persecution.

00:33:28.000 Yeah, I love it.

00:33:29.000 Oreo Express, Josh Fulfur, everybody.

00:33:31.000 And then we got the Puerto Ricans in the house, Puerto Ricans for Trump.

00:33:35.000 But before I get to them, Charlie, look at this.

00:33:37.000 I got this guy just came up, says, get real, turn around.

00:33:39.000 Let's see the back of that shirt.

00:33:40.000 Real America's voice news representing in New York.

00:33:44.000 All right.

00:33:44.000 New Yorkers are fed up.

00:33:45.000 What's your message?

00:33:47.000 My message is, you know, a lot of people are casting judgment and you don't know what it's like to even experience a Trump rally or to be around patriots.

00:33:55.000 And you see people happy and enjoy and being Americans.

00:34:00.000 And actually, this is true diversity here.

00:34:02.000 New Yorkers are fed up.

00:34:03.000 If you want to really know what's going on, be here with us.

00:34:07.000 Join the fight.

00:34:08.000 Amen.

00:34:10.000 You know, I would say to put it simple, it's time to come together.

00:34:13.000 We're too fragmented in this country.

00:34:15.000 All we're doing is wasting time with distractions and fighting against each other.

00:34:20.000 But it's time to heal this country.

00:34:21.000 And that means being open to different things.

00:34:23.000 And as a Latina, as a Puerto Rican born and raised in New York, who came from a Democratic family, I'm ready for something new.

00:34:32.000 Amen.

00:34:33.000 I'm Puerto Rican.

00:34:34.000 I'm a native New Yorker.

00:34:35.000 We support Trump.

00:34:35.000 Brown's for Trump.

00:34:36.000 New York for Trump.

00:34:38.000 Trump is a New York native.

00:34:40.000 And we stand with him.

00:34:42.000 We stand with him.

00:34:42.000 We got to stop this woke nonsense.

00:34:45.000 They're gaslighting us.

00:34:46.000 They're using color to divide us.

00:34:48.000 And we say no to that.

00:34:49.000 We're smarter than that.

00:34:50.000 New York is smarter than that.

00:34:51.000 And Trump is going to take New York.

00:34:53.000 That's what's going to happen.

00:34:54.000 He's going to take New York.

00:34:55.000 Sir.

00:34:56.000 I am Ruben Vargas.

00:34:57.000 I'm here defending Trump.

00:34:59.000 What?

00:34:59.000 Because defending Trump in defending democracy, defending the freedom of speech, defending the American value, defending the Constitution of the United States, which is actually brought the United States to the power that we are.

00:35:14.000 Trump, this hearing here means two things.

00:35:22.000 They're trying to cause Trump a heart attack with all of this vicious attack, political attack.

00:35:30.000 They're trying to cause him a heart attack.

00:35:31.000 He has stood up.

00:35:33.000 And that's why I say he is Donald Trump, the most courageous man on the planet.

00:35:40.000 He has stood up.

00:35:41.000 He will defend the Constitution of the United States.

00:35:45.000 He will defend democracy.

00:35:46.000 He will prevail Donald Trump.

00:35:49.000 Ruben Vargas, defend Donald Trump.

00:35:52.000 With my heart, with my head, with my soul.

00:35:55.000 Donald Trump back to president of the United States.

00:35:59.000 Charlie, there you have it.

00:36:01.000 Excellent work, Ben.

00:36:02.000 Thanks so much.

00:36:02.000 Talk to you soon.

00:36:03.000 Thank you.

00:36:04.000 That is we the people.

00:36:06.000 You have Taiwanese.

00:36:07.000 You have people that have fled the Chinese Communist Party.

00:36:11.000 You have Hispanics, Puerto Rican Americans.

00:36:15.000 And they're all Americans and they're here to win back the country.

00:36:19.000 In 2024, we take America back.

00:36:21.000 That's what this is all about.

00:36:22.000 We take America back from the ruling class, from the regime, this upside-down, top-down revolution against we the people.

00:36:30.000 And President Trump, and boys, Speaker Gingrich said it the best.

00:36:33.000 He is a champion for this American movement.

00:36:36.000 He is a champion for you.

00:36:38.000 He is a vessel.

00:36:41.000 He is now bigger.

00:36:42.000 It's way bigger than a human being.

00:36:43.000 It is a movement.

00:36:45.000 He is a stand-in as a multi-generational, multi-ethnic movement of patriots to reclaim the nation from people who hate it.

00:36:58.000 And every day we go to work and we get closer and closer.

00:37:03.000 Thanks so much for listening.
