00:00:53.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.
00:00:55.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
00:00:58.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
00:01:01.000 I want to thank Charlie.
00:01:02.000 He's an incredible guy.
00:01:03.000 His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created.
00:01:10.000 Turning point USA. 0.65
00:01:12.000 We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:21.000 That's why we are here.
00:01:23.000 Brought to you by the Loan Experts I Trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at andrewandTodd.com.
00:01:33.000 Whoever wins the narrative will win the culture war that we're in right now.
00:01:38.000 Rarely, if ever, do we as conservatives even have a fighting chance in the narrative war?
00:01:46.000 Typically, we are always playing defense when it comes to the political narrative.
00:01:51.000 We're always playing on the terrain set forth by the mainstream media, MSNBC, New York Times, Washington Post, Facebook, Google.
00:02:01.000 We're always responding to their terms.
00:02:04.000 Now, sometimes we're able to actually set the terms of the debate to our own liking.
00:02:09.000 President Trump was fabulous at this.
00:02:10.000 In fact, this is one of the great things that Trump was able to teach Republicans that we're going to play offense, that we are going to make you respond to us.
00:02:18.000 In fact, it's one of Saul Linsky's rules for radicals: keep the pressure on, and also making the enemy live up to its own book of rules.
00:02:28.000 In the last couple of days, we have seen what it's like when conservatives play offense and set the terms of the engagement to our own liking, configure them to be able to fit our desired policy objectives and goals.
00:02:49.000 Now, some people are attacking what Governor DeSantis is doing and what Governor Abbott is doing as shipping economic tourists that illegally break into our country as a PR stunt.
00:03:02.000 I always laugh.
00:03:03.000 Everything that the left does is a PR stunt.
00:03:05.000 AOC pretending to cry in front of a migrant center.
00:03:09.000 The photo ops with Zelensky in Vogue magazine.
00:03:13.000 Everything they do is a PR stunt.
00:03:15.000 But I also don't think we should dismiss PR stunts or public relation campaigns as immaterial.
00:03:24.000 No, PR victories or PR campaigns are incredibly important.
00:03:31.000 Whoever wins the narrative wins the country.
00:03:34.000 And for far too often, we as conservatives act as if, well, that's just nothing more than a transparent PR stunt.
00:03:41.000 Well, what is involved in that idea of a PR stunt?
00:03:44.000 It's winning the argument.
00:03:45.000 You win the argument, you're more likely to build consensus, to be able to pass pieces of legislation.
00:03:50.000 You win the argument, you're more likely to get people in consensus to be able to do the policy changes of your choosing.
00:03:59.000 Winning arguments is not inconsequential.
00:04:01.000 It is essential.
00:04:03.000 And what Governor Abbott and Governor DeSantis have done over the last couple of days is they have completely changed the discussion on the illegal entry of people into our country, which are not immigrants, by the way.
00:04:15.000 These are not refugees.
00:04:16.000 These are lawbreakers.
00:04:18.000 I call them economic tourists.
00:04:20.000 They cut in line.
00:04:21.000 They line jump.
00:04:22.000 They border jump.
00:04:23.000 You could use all these different terms.
00:04:24.000 I refuse to call them immigrants.
00:04:26.000 Immigrants are someone who obeys our law.
00:04:29.000 They wait in line.
00:04:30.000 They come here the right way.
00:04:32.000 I refuse to dilute and destroy the term of an immigrant to compare a lawbreaker to someone who comes here the right way.
00:04:40.000 I think it's disgusting and reprehensible to everyone that has come to our country the right way.
00:04:46.000 And so PR wins are very important.
00:04:50.000 In fact, you cannot win the country without having at least some form of a victory in the broader narrative war.
00:05:05.000 Now, some conservatives are saying, well, Charlie, this does nothing actually solve our illegal immigration crisis.
00:05:12.000 That is technically true, but it is strategically and tactically wrong.
00:05:18.000 You're right.
00:05:19.000 Sending 50 people to Martha's Vineyard, does that solve the 5,000 people crossing our border every single day?
00:05:25.000 No, of course not. 0.97
00:05:26.000 But tactically and strategically, that's a foolish argument.
00:05:28.000 Because what it does do is it moves the Overton window for the 330 million person population to realize we have a border crisis.
00:05:39.000 It doesn't literally solve any crisis, but it does help move the ability for us to argue and make broader, convincing, and clear points to get the rest of the country on board for what we have been saying.
00:05:56.000 And DeSantis and Abbott, to their credit, decided the best way that we can get people to care about the border is to bring the crisis to their doorstep.
00:06:08.000 Even better, what is the only thing better than bringing the crisis to the Democrats' doorstep?
00:06:15.000 Bring the crisis to the Democrat donors' doorstep.
00:06:19.000 That really gets people fired up. 1.00
00:06:21.000 It's one thing to send them to Kamala Harris's house. 0.98
00:06:24.000 Another thing to send it to the kleptocrat that funds Kamala Harris's campaign. 0.71
00:06:29.000 You can just imagine a phone call operator at the Biden White House right now.
00:06:33.000 Sir, we have Jerry Rothstein from Martha's Vineyard.
00:06:40.000 Yeah, he maxed out to your campaign.
00:06:42.000 He'd like to talk to you about, sir, we have another call here from, yeah, it's Lisa.
00:06:48.000 You remember she bundled all that money?
00:06:49.000 She's like, you could just imagine the White House switchboard lighting up with people.
00:06:57.000 Sir, we have former President Obama.
00:07:00.000 He'd like to talk to you.
00:07:02.000 He's very worried that Martha's Vineyard is becoming too Nicaraguan. 1.00
00:07:09.000 The only way to get Democrats even more fired up than sending the Kamala Harris's home, go flood the donors community.
00:07:21.000 And I just, I have to say, for anyone that is that says, oh, that this DeSantis and Abbott thing is nothing more than a PR stunt.
00:07:28.000 First of all, you don't understand the value in PR. 0.95
00:07:29.000 What a silly argument. 0.94
00:07:31.000 Secondly, you don't exist in the meme universe. 0.99
00:07:35.000 One of the great memes I've ever seen is this vomit-inducing sign that I'm sure all of you see in upper-middle-class white suburban society.
00:07:42.000 They're all throughout the suburbs of Chicago.
00:07:44.000 They're these black signs with this rainbow lettering, this house believes love is love and black lives matter and trans people are people and there are no borders.
00:07:53.000 That's not the one.
00:07:55.000 We believe all these things.
00:07:56.000 That's that cliché one that they send out, one of those organizations.
00:07:59.000 And they put them in their yard.
00:08:01.000 And basically when you see one of those things, you know that there is probably a dysfunctional marriage, a godless home, and some very miserable people there that are trying to find meaning.
00:08:10.000 This sign where they say, I'm such a good person.
00:08:13.000 And you could just see that they're switching out those signs for now a no trespassing sign.
00:08:18.000 It's one of the great memes I've ever seen.
00:08:20.000 And so to the brilliance of Ron DeSantis, that's it.
00:08:24.000 Yeah, you've all seen these signs.
00:08:26.000 In this house, we believe black lives matter. 1.00
00:08:28.000 Women's rights are human rights. 0.99
00:08:30.000 No human is illegal. 0.99
00:08:31.000 Science is real.
00:08:32.000 Love is love and kindness is everything.
00:08:35.000 Unless you bring 50 Hondurans to Martha's Vineyard, then we put up a no trespassing sign. 1.00
00:08:42.000 It's brilliant.
00:08:44.000 It's playing offense.
00:08:46.000 And of course, the argument that people are saying, well, Charlie, it only further moves people into the interior of the United States.
00:08:52.000 Of course, but you're talking about 50 or a couple hundred people that are proving a bigger point.
00:08:56.000 And instead of Martha's Vineyard bringing out the Grand Marshal of their all-white parade and welcoming the now new, diverse community, you are seeing leaders in Martha's Vineyard say, we got to get them off the island. 1.00
00:09:12.000 We don't have the resources for this.
00:09:14.000 Oh, really? 0.91
00:09:15.000 Martha's Vineyard doesn't have the resources. 0.97
00:09:17.000 Martha's Vineyard makes Aspen look like a third world country.
00:09:22.000 For people that are saying it's nothing more than a PR stunt, you win back the country by winning arguments.
00:09:29.000 That's why this show matters.
00:09:30.000 This is why Tucker shows matter.
00:09:31.000 If you are not persuading people, then like, well, we just have to have better policy ideas wrong.
00:09:36.000 You have to build consensus.
00:09:38.000 And sometimes you build consensus through creative, entrepreneurial approaches that spark attention.
00:09:46.000 Look, in the good old days, we Americans argued about which policies to pursue to improve this beautiful country.
00:09:52.000 Charlie Kirk here.
00:09:53.000 Too often we find ourselves arguing about whether or not America is great or not, or whether we should be ashamed or whether we should love America.
00:10:00.000 The reason for this is simple.
00:10:02.000 For too many years, too many of our schools have been neglecting to teach young people about our great heritage of liberty, presenting them instead a dishonest narrative of America as a fundamentally unjust or racist country.
00:10:13.000 Hillsdale College is weighing in for America, the wonderful Hillsdale College, by offering a free online course, such as The Great American Story, A Land of Hope, Constitution 101, The Meaning of History of the Constitution.
00:10:25.000 As we get closer to Constitution Day, September 17th, I encourage all of you to enroll in one of these wonderful free courses from Hillsdale.
00:10:32.000 And even better, encourage your friends and family to sign up too.
00:10:35.000 Begin your Hillsdale course today at charlie4hillsdale.com.
00:10:38.000 That is charlie4hillsdale.com.
00:10:40.000 Check it out, charlie4hillsdale.com.
00:10:45.000 I love this on so many different levels.
00:10:48.000 You think the Republican Party five years ago would have been shipping economic tourists illegally entering our country to Martha's Vineyard?
00:10:57.000 Of course not.
00:10:58.000 No, this is forced by the hand of a new right philosophy that is promising, that is based in principle, that is willing to play offense against the left.
00:11:08.000 How often are we always playing defense against them?
00:11:12.000 And the narrative matters.
00:11:14.000 I got in a debate with somebody texting this morning, some snobbish Republican consultant, and he knows who he is if he's watching, doubt he is.
00:11:23.000 I don't like this, he said.
00:11:24.000 This makes us no better than the Democrats.
00:11:27.000 I said, what are you talking?
00:11:28.000 First of all, no better than the Democrats?
00:11:30.000 They're the ones that are illegally flying illegals in the middle of the night on military airplanes, and they have no idea where they're going.
00:11:39.000 We're simply sending them to Martha's Vineyard.
00:11:41.000 Lucky they should be makes us no better than them.
00:11:44.000 Secondly, what time do you think it is?
00:11:47.000 Do you think this is the time where we have to say, well, it's no better than them?
00:11:50.000 No, no, hold on a second.
00:11:52.000 The border crisis is now becoming nationalized.
00:11:56.000 That is what DeSantis and Abbott have done.
00:11:59.000 Basically, the argument that DeSantis and Abbott are making, which is a brilliant argument, and I think they could do an even better job of articulating when they get challenged by the media on this is: hold on a second.
00:12:08.000 If the federal government is tasked with securing the southern border and they're not doing their job, then it's about time that every nation, every state in our country, no matter how remote, Martha's Vineyard, feels the pain and the suffering of what a border town would be.
00:12:25.000 It is not equitable or fair to say that 5,000 people crossing the southern border illegally should have to, only Texas and Arizona should have to pay the price for that because Mayorkis, who's a traitor to the country, abdicated his role and his responsibility to not secure the southern border.
00:12:46.000 Remember when Mass, so this is what it's so amazing.
00:12:49.000 Remember when Joe Biden started to fly people across the country in the middle of the night?
00:12:52.000 He's still doing that, by the way.
00:12:54.000 The reactions by the Democrats on this has been worth the entire program alone.
00:13:00.000 The outrage, and they say, oh, you're using these people as political puns.
00:13:04.000 So, first of all, using people as political pawns, really?
00:13:08.000 You mean like trying to sanctify a drug addict like George Floyd and turning an entire political movement?
00:13:15.000 That's not using someone as a political pawn or trying to use an instant and politicize it? 0.99
00:13:21.000 Or how about Greta Thunberg? 1.00
00:13:22.000 That's not using a teenager from a foreign land as a political pawn. 0.91
00:13:28.000 Like, how about you sit this one out, pal, about the moral grandstanding of using people as political pawns?
00:13:34.000 Like, okay.
00:13:36.000 Secondly, we're in a narrative war right now.
00:13:41.000 We are in the midst of an all-out struggle for our country.
00:13:47.000 And somehow, Massachusetts, because of their geographic proximity, can just wash their hands of the southern border crisis and then send their representatives to Washington, D.C., where they send that, I think his name's Marky and Warren, to D.C. and they continually vote for open borders.
00:14:05.000 Massachusetts is able to vote for open borders because they're not a border state.
00:14:11.000 They have no compassion or understanding for the drugs, the sex crimes, the child sex trafficking, because it doesn't hit home.
00:14:19.000 In the halls of Harvard or Boston College, in their mostly white communities, they're able to scream from the rooftops that diversity is our strength, that love is love.
00:14:33.000 But the moment that their ideology actually no longer exists as an abstraction and becomes a harsh reality, they go full fascist.
00:14:44.000 I mean, they go sword-waving fascist at Martha's Vineyard.
00:14:49.000 Get them off the island. 0.88
00:14:51.000 I don't care that they're here.
00:14:52.000 We're not ready for this.
00:14:55.000 The narrative determines policy.
00:14:59.000 Whoever wins the argument can move the Overton window, which is a spectrum of which ideas exist on, going from ideas that are unacceptable to popular to eventually policy.
00:15:10.000 And it exists on that continuum.
00:15:12.000 And we're always operating on the Overton window in some way or some sense.
00:15:16.000 In fact, I have a plan in the next year or two, if someone doesn't do it before me, to talk about how the Overton window, in my opinion, is the most operative and important thing that people can understand that dictates all policy, all decisions.
00:15:31.000 Look at BLM.
00:15:32.000 Went from loving the police within a matter of weeks, burning down our country in the summer of 2020 and calling for defund police because of one instance that was politicized.
00:15:43.000 One.
00:15:44.000 Finally, I'm starting to see a renewed sense of a fight from Abbott, from DeSantis, when the lean in.
00:15:51.000 The narrative dictates policy, and the Democrats are scrambling because they can't live up to their own rules.
00:16:01.000 Hey, everybody, if you want to save money while you prepare for the coming food shortages, now is the time to do so.
00:16:07.000 Look, there's going to be some food shortages happening, and you are only nine meals away from anarchy.
00:16:12.000 Here's a very special money-saving offer from MyPatriot Supply that will help you out big time.
00:16:18.000 In fact, it's their lowest price in years.
00:16:21.000 Go to preparewithkirk.com and you'll get $250 off a three-month emergency food kit.
00:16:27.000 That's right.
00:16:27.000 You'll save $250 off a three-month emergency food kit from MyPatriot Supply, the nation's largest preparedness company.
00:16:35.000 They want to make it as affordable as possible for Americans to prepare for what's coming.
00:16:40.000 So they're knocking $250 off the price of this three-month kit, which provides delicious, easy-to-make meals you'll be glad you'll have when grocery store shelves are suddenly empty, which seems like it's going to happen sometime soon.
00:16:53.000 At $250 off, this is the lowest price they've offered since 2019, and it might not be offered again.
00:16:59.000 I use MyPatriots Supply.
00:17:01.000 So you just write down the website, it's preparewithkirk.com.
00:17:06.000 Preparewithkirk.com.
00:17:09.000 That is preparewithkirk.com.
00:17:12.000 Preparewithkirk.com is to get special savings today.
00:17:16.000 Go to preparewithkirk.com.
00:17:18.000 That is preparewithkirk.com.
00:17:24.000 Ed asks a great question.
00:17:25.000 Charlie, while busing or flying illegals to Martha's Vineyard and other Democrats might seem like a brilliant PR move, why don't we just use the state's National Guard to repel illegal invaders in the first place? 0.67
00:17:35.000 We should.
00:17:35.000 And that is the next step.
00:17:37.000 This is, though, it's a huge step forward, I have to say, when dealing with Republicans that have ignored the border completely and totally.
00:17:46.000 And it does nationalize the issue and it exposes hypocrisy.
00:17:50.000 But Ed, I completely agree.
00:17:52.000 And Kerry Lake agrees as well.
00:17:53.000 We're going to play that tape in this segment, where the next step for border governors should be not to fly them to Martha's Vineyard, but fly them back to Mexico City.
00:18:04.000 I think that's a smart point, Ed.
00:18:06.000 Okay, let's get to some tape here because there's so much delicious tape to go into over this, which again, PR wins matter.
00:18:13.000 That's where they try to, people discount it.
00:18:15.000 Oh, this seems like a seamless political stunt.
00:18:18.000 I mean, how often have Democrats been able to use PR campaigns, Green New Deal, climate change, the world is burning, kids in cages, Russia, Russia, Russia?
00:18:28.000 They use PR to dictate policy and they're really good at it.
00:18:33.000 The winners of a PR war are able to control a country, control policy debates.
00:18:37.000 The narrative matters a lot.
00:18:39.000 And this has completely shifted the narrative.
00:18:41.000 It has now inserted itself into the liberal zeitgeist.
00:18:44.000 Zeitgeist.
00:18:45.000 And instead of them talking about Lindsey Graham's abortion bill all day long, which we've gone into great detail about why that was a sabotage campaign by Lindsey Graham, now we're talking about immigration.
00:18:55.000 All right, now we're talking.
00:18:56.000 You want to know why midterm polls are starting to tighten in favor of Republicans?
00:19:00.000 JD Vance up.
00:19:02.000 Oz is tightening.
00:19:03.000 Blake Masters is tightening.
00:19:04.000 Herschel Walker is up.
00:19:05.000 Ron Johnson is up.
00:19:07.000 It's because immigration, inflation, and crime are becoming top-tier issues and Democrats lose on them.
00:19:13.000 Abbott and DeSantis is forcing the narrative to talk about how Majorkis and Joe Biden and Mark Kelly and Raphael Warnock and God forbid John Fetterman and that other weirdo running in Wisconsin, Mandela Barnes, how they would keep the border wide open or they already have the border wide open.
00:19:33.000 I want to play a piece of tape here.
00:19:35.000 This is one of my favorite all-time tapes.
00:19:37.000 So this is Lisa Bel Castro.
00:19:40.000 She's a homeless shelter coordinator at Martha's Vineyard. 0.99
00:19:44.000 Now, I don't want to be too stereotyping here, but if there were central casting for Bleeding Heart Liberal, Lisa Bel Castro would be right front and center. 0.97
00:19:54.000 If I was trying to produce a document, produce a film and say, we need Bleeding Heart Northeast Liberal, Lisa Bel Castro would be right there. 1.00
00:20:03.000 The frizzy hair, the whole thing. 0.56
00:20:06.000 And because of 50 people, 5-0 in a community that is 86% white and the median income is upwards of $125,000 a year, of which the wealthiest people on the planet have homes, summer homes, or primary residences, 50 people makes Lisa Bel Castro say, at some point, we got to get them off here. 0.95
00:20:27.000 Got to get them off the island.
00:20:28.000 We can't take anymore.
00:20:31.000 I wonder how the Rio Grande Valley is absorbing 5,000 people a day.
00:20:37.000 Play Cut 138.
00:20:39.000 The difficult challenges are we have, at some point in time, they have to move to somewhere else, right?
00:20:48.000 We cannot, we don't have the services to take care of 50 immigrants. 1.00
00:20:54.000 And we certainly don't have housing.
00:20:56.000 We're in a housing crisis as we are on this island.
00:20:58.000 And so we don't, we can't house everyone here that lives here and works here. 0.97
00:21:04.000 We don't have housing for 50 more people.
00:21:07.000 So these illegal aliens, and by the way, when I say economic tourists, what I mean by that, I didn't mean to try to diminish the term illegal aliens.
00:21:14.000 I was pushing back on why they're coming.
00:21:17.000 Because far too often people call them refugees.
00:21:19.000 No, they're opportunists, is what I'm trying to get at.
00:21:21.000 They're not coming because they're fleeing war.
00:21:23.000 They're coming because they want more money.
00:21:25.000 That's it.
00:21:26.000 But I think I could be even more precise in my language.
00:21:28.000 These are illegal aliens. 0.97
00:21:30.000 I think that's a fair piece of feedback we received, Freedom at CharlieKirk.com.
00:21:34.000 So now Massachusetts has activated the National Guard because of 50 illegals. 1.00
00:21:44.000 So let me get this straight.
00:21:46.000 Why can't Texas now activate the National Guard?
00:21:48.000 Greg Abbott, maybe he has or hasn't.
00:21:50.000 I think he's been playing around at the edges.
00:21:52.000 So I don't want to be imprecise about this.
00:21:54.000 Can we check?
00:21:54.000 I think he has.
00:21:55.000 But now Massachusetts has activated the National Guard due to migrant flights. 0.99
00:22:01.000 That's right.
00:22:01.000 50 illegal aliens being transported to Martha's Vineyard.
00:22:07.000 It's an invasion.
00:22:08.000 It's Hurricane Sandy, is what it is.
00:22:11.000 We need to call FEMA.
00:22:13.000 We need to have a continuation of Operation Plan.
00:22:17.000 Abbott has activated the National Guard.
00:22:18.000 Thank you.
00:22:19.000 I thought he did.
00:22:19.000 I couldn't remember the coverage on that.
00:22:20.000 I don't know if Arizona has or not.
00:22:22.000 But this is the precedent.
00:22:24.000 But the latest Texas Tribune's article that said Texas reduces National Guard members deployed to Operation Lone Star border mission.
00:22:32.000 Should be a lot more.
00:22:34.000 But now Massachusetts is saying we're being so invaded, we're being so overrun that We didn't have the military involved.
00:22:45.000 Oh, it gets better.
00:22:47.000 Let's play another piece of tape here.
00:22:49.000 It gets so much better.
00:22:52.000 This guy here, let's actually go to Karine Jean-Pierre, cut 149.
00:22:57.000 And a couple more things.
00:22:58.000 The migrants, including children who arrived in Martha's Vineyard, were misled about where they were being taken and what would be provided when they arrived is also deeply alarming.
00:23:11.000 The children Governor Abbott abandoned in Martha's Vineyard, the children that Governor DeSantis abandoned as well, you know, deserve better.
00:23:24.000 They deserve better than being left on the streets of DC or being left in Martha's Vineyard.
00:23:30.000 They deserve a lot better than that.
00:23:32.000 I'm sorry, I'm chuckling up.
00:23:34.000 Yeah, they deserve better than the wealthiest island America has to offer. 1.00
00:23:40.000 Do you understand how stupid she says? 1.00
00:23:42.000 They deserve better than going to the wealthiest place that we have. 1.00
00:23:47.000 What exactly is better than that, Corine Jean-Pierre?
00:23:53.000 Should we keep them in the Rio Grande Valley?
00:23:55.000 What do they deserve better exactly?
00:23:57.000 Oh, you mean that blue state governors and blue state mayors that are always lecturing us about how we need to accept more people don't actually want to have more people?
00:24:06.000 That they're deeply racist inside.
00:24:08.000 And what they want is more Democrat voters as long as they don't come and invade their all-white communities. 0.79
00:24:14.000 They deserve better. 1.00
00:24:15.000 Well, first of all, they're criminals. 0.99
00:24:18.000 They came into our country illegally. 1.00
00:24:20.000 They broke into America. 0.90
00:24:22.000 And now they get this beautiful reward to go to the spacious, sparsely populated, mansion-filled island of Martha's Vineyard.
00:24:35.000 I just, I love when she says they deserve so much better.
00:24:40.000 And by the way, you could argue that these people were invited by the Biden regime.
00:24:44.000 They were let into the country by DHS and by Border Patrol.
00:24:49.000 And so Karine Jean-Pierre is lecturing us about as if we did a non-stop flight from the Rio Grande Valley to Pyongyang and dropped them off in North Korea.
00:25:01.000 No, they're actually in a place where Barack Hussein Obama vacations.
00:25:05.000 I think they're going to be just fine.
00:25:07.000 Except for the fact that no one on the island actually wants them there.
00:25:11.000 And all this, the state rep islanders were taken by surprise.
00:25:15.000 Oh, really?
00:25:16.000 Was the southern border taken by surprise?
00:25:19.000 Play cut 155 of another liberal leftist that lacks self-awareness on MSNBC.
00:25:26.000 Play cut 155.
00:25:27.000 Really, clearly a political stunt.
00:25:31.000 So the local officials in Martha's Vineyard say that they had no warning that there were going to be these planeloads of immigrants arriving, but they described it sort of responding to a natural disaster. 0.99
00:25:47.000 Sorry.
00:25:48.000 I'm sorry.
00:25:50.000 I haven't seen these clips.
00:25:51.000 It's a natural disaster that 50 Nicaraguans are coming to our all-white island. 1.00
00:25:57.000 It's an earthquake.
00:26:02.000 Could you imagine if a conservative said it's a natural disaster to have all these brown people come to Martha's Vineyard? 1.00
00:26:13.000 Are they mostly Venezuelans?
00:26:14.000 Is that right?
00:26:16.000 Well, that's why they really hate them because they're going to vote Republican.
00:26:19.000 They're a bunch of anti-commies coming to Martha's Vineyard.
00:26:22.000 Don't tell me how bad communism is. 1.00
00:26:25.000 Chavez was right, you stupid Venezuelan. 1.00
00:26:27.000 Go back to Caracas where you came from. 1.00
00:26:30.000 So 50 illegals is a tsunami, earthquake, hurricane, cataclysmic, apocalyptic event. 1.00
00:26:40.000 50.
00:26:41.000 But the nearly 7,000 to 8,000 a day on the southern border is an act of love.
00:26:46.000 I'm sorry, when I heard that MSNBC clip, they're comparing it to a natural disaster.
00:26:52.000 No one was alerted.
00:26:53.000 Yeah, you know who else wasn't alerted?
00:26:55.000 The ranchers, the citizens in Arizona, where I live, in Tucson, in the Rio Grande Valley, in El Paso.
00:27:04.000 They weren't alerted by the cartels allowing them to come across.
00:27:08.000 But you know what I actually love?
00:27:09.000 Someone says here, Charlie, we got to keep on sending them to Martha's Vineyard.
00:27:13.000 Actually, right now, I think it's perfect because the fact it's only 50, I think, is hilarious.
00:27:18.000 It's 50 people in an island of 10,000 really, really rich white liberals.
00:27:24.000 50.
00:27:25.000 And they're calling it, officials are comparing this to a natural disaster.
00:27:29.000 Greg Abbott deserves credit for this.
00:27:32.000 He's sending them the Chicago 2 and Beetlejuice is losing her mind.
00:27:35.000 Greg Abbott says that we will stop bussing the illegals across the country when the Biden regime finally secures the border.
00:27:44.000 Got to give Abbott and DeSantis credit.
00:27:46.000 That's right.
00:27:47.000 You're not going to secure the border.
00:27:49.000 Your donors, your constituency, your blue cities will feel what it's like to be invaded.
00:27:54.000 Play cut 150.
00:27:56.000 Do you have a plan to stop this process at the moment or not?
00:28:01.000 Yeah, we do have a plan to stop this process.
00:28:04.000 And the plan begins with the Biden administration finally securing the border.
00:28:08.000 Remember this, it was just two years ago with the fewest border crossings in decades because the Trump administration was enforcing the immigration laws.
00:28:16.000 All Biden has to do is replicate what Trump did.
00:28:20.000 What Abbott has done, again, I've been very harsh on Abbott on certain things.
00:28:23.000 I think he needs more National Guard.
00:28:24.000 He needs to deport them back to the country of origin. 1.00
00:28:26.000 But Abbott deserves credit for one thing.
00:28:29.000 He has successfully changed a midterm political narrative into an immigration narrative, of which we win overwhelmingly.
00:28:38.000 That's a big deal.
00:28:41.000 Lindsey Graham wants us to talk about an abortion topic, of which I'm very pro-life, but we all know it's not going to pass in the Senate anytime soon.
00:28:49.000 And the Democrats only want to talk about this.
00:28:50.000 The Democrats, do you see how uncomfortable, how imprecise they are when they have to talk about this issue?
00:28:59.000 Because it is the ultimate issue that is the contradiction of how they live.
00:29:04.000 They espouse every day how they want these people, but they really don't.
00:29:10.000 It's brilliant.
00:29:11.000 And now the American population is saying, well, I don't know if I want them in my community.
00:29:16.000 Well, come down to Arizona.
00:29:17.000 You can see the thousands a day that are pouring in through Yuma, literally 1,800 to 2,000 a day.
00:29:23.000 And this is 50, 50 to Martha's Vineyard.
00:29:28.000 And they're acting as if Mount St. Helens has erupted off the coast of Massachusetts.
00:29:34.000 Bring in the National Guard. 1.00
00:29:39.000 The one issue that Hillary Rodham Clinton should probably never weigh in on is human smuggling. 1.00
00:29:50.000 I mean, I think that there should be a moratorium in the Clinton family of mentioning trafficking human beings or children from one place to the other.
00:30:04.000 Hillary Rodham Clinton decides to weigh in on the issue of sending the illegal Venezuelans to Martha's Vineyard as saying that this very well could be literally human trafficking, of which I could only start to say to myself, Lolita express anybody?
00:30:25.000 Play cut 134.
00:30:27.000 I think, Joe, you have laid out the craziness of the time in which we're living, where some politicians would rather not only have an issue, but exacerbate it to the extent of literally human trafficking, as you said.
00:30:43.000 Literally human trafficking.
00:30:45.000 For the Clinton family to talk about literally human trafficking is just about as dense as her going up and saying, you know, I just, I don't know why all these people are committing suicide.
00:30:55.000 I have no idea.
00:30:56.000 I don't know why everyone in my orbit keeps on doing that.
00:30:59.000 It's all these tall buildings, I guess.
00:31:02.000 Cut, let's go to this one here.
00:31:05.000 Cut 120, Domingo Garcia is talking about how Jesus is very angry with Governor Abbott for sending the Venezuelans to the richest island that we have.
00:31:14.000 Play cut 120.
00:31:15.000 Jesus is very upset with Governor Abbott right now.
00:31:18.000 Treating refugees as political piñatas and for a political stunt, dropping them off at 6 o'clock in the morning in front of the vice president's house.
00:31:25.000 That's really inhumane and almost human trafficking.
00:31:28.000 Is the administration being honest with those migrants about the state of the border being open and enticing them to come in such large numbers? 0.99
00:31:36.000 I think the reality is we need to have a bipartisan solution to fixing our broken immigration system. 0.98
00:31:42.000 Just for one side note that I didn't plan on mentioning, next time they try to pass a bipartisan immigration system, just remember this fool. 0.82
00:31:49.000 Remember who actually wants to pass mass amnesty. 0.90
00:31:52.000 Secondly, Domingo Garcia.
00:31:54.000 Do Triten refugees like political piñatas. 1.00
00:31:56.000 Really, that's a really interesting way to put it.
00:32:00.000 Jesus is very angry.
00:32:03.000 Wait a second. 0.96
00:32:04.000 So putting them outside of Kamala Harris's home, the very generous and benevolent cackling fool of our vice president, that's somehow making Jesus very angry with you. 0.99
00:32:16.000 Inhumane, almost human trafficking. 0.97
00:32:18.000 No, I'm sorry, Domingo.
00:32:21.000 You know what is human trafficking?
00:32:23.000 What actually happens on the southern border every single day?
00:32:25.000 Domingo, why don't you come down to Yuma with me?
00:32:28.000 I could show you that the cartels are, you could see it in real time up on a hill right near the Yuma sector, right near the Rio Grande River.
00:32:35.000 You could see how the cartels get people out of cars and are directing the steps, directing the places of where to go through certain sector checkpoints.
00:32:43.000 That's human trafficking, Domingo.
00:32:45.000 And don't you love that that's the only way that they could try to pivot?
00:32:48.000 That, in fact, some people, and Gavin Newsom is now calling for a Department of Justice investment.
00:32:53.000 By the way, don't be surprised if he gets one.
00:32:56.000 Do you think they're going to raid the governor's mansion now of Ron DeSantis for human trafficking?
00:33:01.000 This whole thing is perfect.
00:33:03.000 You cannot purchase enough political advertising to change the discussion on immigration, to change the way that we actually view it.
00:33:12.000 Cut 158, D.C. Democrat Mayor Muriel Bowser says that this is a national problem.
00:33:19.000 Play Cut 158.
00:33:21.000 Your thoughts on that?
00:33:22.000 Well, you've heard me say throughout this experience since April that we have a national problem that is going to require a national response.
00:33:31.000 And we're going to do all that we can in D.C. to make sure that people have a humane welcome and transfer to their final destinations.
00:33:40.000 But we see in the months ahead that this problem could worsen.
00:33:46.000 I just love it.
00:33:47.000 Every single one of them have to say in their speech that there's a final destination that is not their city.
00:33:53.000 Lori Lightfoot marked this vineyard.
00:33:55.000 Yeah, we're nothing more than a train stop on the long the way, as long as they're not here. 0.85
00:34:00.000 I mean, come on, we'd have to feed them.
00:34:02.000 We'd have to worry about the crime and the overflow.
00:34:05.000 What they're trying to say is that we want, this is important, we want the potential votes, which actually is not as clean cut as they would want to think, to flip Texas.
00:34:14.000 We don't want them in our neighborhood.
00:34:16.000 It's interesting how diversity is everybody's strength till you actually have to go live with the, let's say, the consequences of your abstract bumper sticker that you actually never believed in.
00:34:28.000 Keep the pressure on.
00:34:30.000 Whoever wins the narrative wins the country.
00:34:32.000 This is a good move.
00:34:33.000 Again, ideally, send them back to the country of origin. 1.00
00:34:36.000 That's the next step.
00:34:37.000 In the meantime, brilliant midterm messaging win on behalf of DeSantis and Abbott.
