00:00:00.000 Hey everybody, the elites of our country want us to no longer be a country, but instead a colony.

00:00:50.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campuses.
00:00:52.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
00:00:56.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
00:00:59.000 I want to thank Charlie.
00:01:00.000 He's an incredible guy.
00:01:01.000 His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created.
00:01:08.000 Turning point USA.
00:01:10.000 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.
00:01:18.000 That's why we are here.

00:01:32.000 What type of a thing is America currently?
00:01:35.000 It's important that we're able to describe and label and characterize what we are living through.
00:01:41.000 We are supposed to be a constitutional republic, but a constitutional republic is simply an adjective.
00:01:47.000 It is a description of the type of thing that we are.
00:01:52.000 We're a country.
00:01:53.000 We're founded as a nation.
00:01:55.000 Our country has a birthday.
00:01:57.000 We celebrate that birthday every single July.
00:01:59.000 The fact that America has a starting point is a big deal.
00:02:03.000 Most countries don't.
00:02:04.000 Can you show me the day, the time, and the reason the British Empire was founded?
00:02:10.000 Probably not.
00:02:11.000 You're going to have like a rough approximation of maybe 100 years.
00:02:14.000 How about the Chinese Empire?
00:02:16.000 Maybe a rough approximation of 1,000 or 500 years.
00:02:20.000 Just kind of slowly meandered into existence.
00:02:23.000 But America was summoned into existence.
00:02:26.000 It didn't just kind of stumble through the night and just kind of realize, well, I guess we're a country.
00:02:31.000 We are a country that came forward because of the wishes, the demands, and the wants of our founders and our framers.
00:02:39.000 We're a country.
00:02:40.000 A country is something very unique.
00:02:41.000 A country requires citizens.
00:02:43.000 We've talked about what it means to be a citizen at great length on this program.
00:02:47.000 A citizen is not a subject.
00:02:49.000 It's not a serf.
00:02:50.000 It's not a slave.
00:02:50.000 It's someone who is aware, it's alert, who holds the people in power responsible.
00:02:55.000 In a country, a constitutional republic of a country, the many rule the few, the few do not rule the many.
00:03:03.000 In a constitutional republic, we have separation of powers.
00:03:06.000 We have an independent judiciary.
00:03:08.000 Now, you contrast that with what we are quickly becoming.
00:03:11.000 Yes, we are becoming an oligarchy, but we're becoming something different.
00:03:15.000 Because even an oligarchy can still be a country, but we're almost going through a different type of thing.
00:03:20.000 We're quickly becoming, we're transforming into what the business tycoons have always thought we were, and some of them want us to be.
00:03:28.000 We're slowly no longer becoming a country, but we're becoming a colony.
00:03:33.000 A colony is a completely different type of thing.
00:03:36.000 The colony is what we were.
00:03:38.000 The colony is what we left.
00:03:42.000 We were a colony before July 4th, 1776.
00:03:46.000 We were a group of colonies under the jurisdiction of the British Empire.
00:03:49.000 A colony is a place where you still have some form of a semblance of representative government.
00:03:54.000 You could do trade and you could engage in markets and you could still own property, but you don't have your own identity.
00:04:00.000 You're under kind of a threshold of another more powerful structure.
00:04:07.000 A colony also means you're kind of a mixture of people.
00:04:10.000 There's really not an identity.
00:04:13.000 There really isn't a through line of a shared or combined story.
00:04:18.000 A great example of what a colony would be would be kind of Hong Kong 50 or 60 years ago.
00:04:23.000 Hong Kong, to a lesser extent, is no longer a colony, is now under the Chinese Communist Party country.
00:04:28.000 A colony would be a place where people come and they trade and they have commerce, but there is no through line.
00:04:34.000 A colony is a place where anyone can come and anyone can leave and it's kind of no holds barred.
00:04:41.000 It's not there to stay.
00:04:43.000 A country, by definition, is supposed to have an anchored permanence.
00:04:47.000 So as we are seeing what is happening in our country right now, Biden and his regime, they want to try to execute the metamorphosis of America being a country into a colony.
00:05:00.000 Colonies are easier to control because the citizens don't really believe they have something of a shared value.
00:05:08.000 There's no pledge of allegiance in a colony.
00:05:10.000 There is no shared ideal.
00:05:14.000 And so when you have a country that then participates in intentional decisions where it doesn't matter who comes into your nation, it doesn't matter what they believe.
00:05:25.000 It doesn't matter what language they speak or what language they don't speak.
00:05:29.000 It doesn't matter because what makes the country no longer a country is they don't think there's anything special to being an American.
00:05:38.000 They don't believe in American exceptionalism.
00:05:40.000 They don't believe that there's a shared and combined American story, a journey.
00:05:45.000 They don't believe that the principles of Madison and Jay and Hamilton and Jefferson or Franklin are anything unique.
00:05:52.000 And it's exhibited by exactly what's happening on the southern border.
00:05:55.000 You see, they want America to be a colony where anyone can come and anyone can go at any time living under the oppressive totalitarian regime of the World Economic Forum and Klaus Schwab.
00:06:07.000 You see, what makes a country a country is self-determination, self-government.
00:06:11.000 You call your own shots, but if you are merely just a pimple under the largesse of another governing structure, do you really have self-government?
00:06:23.000 So what percentage of a country being legal citizens would make you no longer be a country and no longer be, now then be a colony?
00:06:31.000 If you look around and you take a random sampling of people in your nation and you say that person is not there legally and they're not a citizen, what number would you have to surpass?
00:06:42.000 What threshold would you have to overcome where you no longer are a country?
00:06:47.000 Now, maybe the number would be maybe one out of 20 people, maybe one out of 10 people.
00:06:52.000 Well, at the rate we are trending at, an alarming and stunning and sobering number shows the attempted transformation, the metamorphosis to try to make America no longer a country into a colony.
00:07:04.000 In cut four, Lieutenant Governor of Texas Dan Patrick says that one in five people in America will be illegal non-citizens.
00:07:15.000 Play cut four.
00:07:17.000 You're seeing the first step of a constitutional showdown between the governor and the legislature and the state of Texas and the federal government.
00:07:25.000 Because Jen Pensaki, how dare her say in her press conference the other day, well, this is a publicity stunt.
00:07:32.000 What's the problem?
00:07:33.000 Don't you like illegal immigrants, Jen?
00:07:35.000 Doesn't the president want them in his home state?
00:07:37.000 By the end of the first term of Joe Biden, nearly 20% of all Americans will be here illegally.
00:07:47.000 20% of all Americans, you take a random sampling size at a sports game or in a city, and one out of five will be here illegally.
00:07:59.000 Now, what is the reason for that?
00:08:01.000 Part of it is because of political power.
00:08:03.000 Part of it is because they want to try to have demographics that fit their narrative, that fit their political outcomes.
00:08:12.000 They brag about it.
00:08:13.000 We're not allowed to say this out loud.
00:08:16.000 When we say it out loud, we get called all these terrible names that we're engaging in replacement theory.
00:08:22.000 I don't even know what that is.
00:08:24.000 Just go and, Connor, pull up the clip of Castro saying it.
00:08:28.000 Pull up the clip of the Democrat operative saying it.
00:08:31.000 They say that just a matter of time, because of the open southern border, Texas will become a blue state and the country will be permanently transformed.
00:08:39.000 But it's beyond that.
00:08:40.000 They're not just trying to transform the politics.
00:08:43.000 They're trying to change the type of thing that we are.
00:08:47.000 They want you to get used to living amongst foreigners.
00:08:52.000 Now, immigrants can be a wonderful benefit to a society.
00:08:57.000 But when it's too much, too much, now is too much.
00:09:00.000 When you have in Minneapolis, the city council now allowing the call to prayer to be issued four times a day in Minneapolis, you got to ask yourself the question and say, was that in the vision of Founding Fathers to try to stay consistent with self-government and liberty and values and virtue?
00:09:15.000 I'm all for religious expression and freedom.
00:09:17.000 But is that consistent with the values of Minnesota to make it Mugadishu?
00:09:22.000 I don't think so.
00:09:24.000 So when you have unrestrained immigration, both legal and illegal, the thing that we are starts to change.
00:09:35.000 Almost every day we hear about another major corporation that has gone woke.
00:09:38.000 Disney hates you and everyone should cancel Disney.
00:09:42.000 They hate families.
00:09:43.000 Disney made tons of money off of being family friendly and family safe.
00:09:48.000 Now it's time to divest from Disney.
00:09:51.000 There's a lot of companies like T-Mobile that's firing all their unvaccinated employees.
00:09:54.000 They're tormenting their employees with leftist propaganda and funding organizations who seem to hate this country.
00:10:00.000 And so I was on a mission.
00:10:01.000 I was seeing how much I was spending on my cell phone bill, how much Turning Point USA was spending on our cell phone bill.
00:10:06.000 I said, I'm so sick and tired of giving these anti-American cell phone companies my hard-earned money and our amazing donor money at Turning Point USA.
00:10:14.000 So I told my team, I said, go find the cell phone company that shares our values.
00:10:19.000 And I remember I met this guy, Glenn.
00:10:21.000 We'd run into each other a couple times, and he was super enthusiastic, always wore this red polo.
00:10:26.000 It said Patriot Mobile on it.
00:10:28.000 And I saw him again at an event.
00:10:29.000 I said, okay, now you really got to sit down.
00:10:32.000 Let's plan some time together and talk about this.
00:10:33.000 So we had this meal in Dallas.
00:10:35.000 This was back in November, and he laid it all out, and I got it.
00:10:37.000 I was like, wow, okay.
00:10:39.000 So you're at a conservative Christian cell phone provider and I don't have to pay all these woke companies.
00:10:44.000 And it just like clicked in a minute.
00:10:45.000 I said, let's partner together.
00:10:46.000 Let's have you on the show.
00:10:47.000 Let's do some things.
00:10:48.000 And that's how it all started.
00:10:50.000 So Patriot Mobile, they have plans to fit every budget.
00:10:53.000 And their U.S.-based customer support team provides exceptional customer service.
00:10:57.000 Most importantly, Patriot Mobile shares your values and supports organizations fighting for religious liberty, constitutional rights, and the sanctity of life.
00:11:06.000 So make the switch today.
00:11:07.000 I know the whole management team behind Patriot Mobile, Glenn, all of them, they support Turning Point USA.

00:12:09.000 Minneapolis mosques to broadcast call to prayer all year round.
00:12:12.000 Minneapolis City Council member Jamal Osman announced this week that mosque will be allowed to play the Adhan several times between the hours 7 a.m. and 10 p.m. daily all year round.
00:12:24.000 The Muslim call to prayer will soon be heard regularly in parts of Minneapolis.
00:12:27.000 Now, I'm not even going to get into the constitutionality of it.
00:12:31.000 It probably is constitutional, and they'll probably win in that way.
00:12:36.000 However, the question is, why and how did Minneapolis get to a place where they have enough people that would tolerate it?
00:12:44.000 That's the real question.
00:12:45.000 So it's really an immigration question, right?
00:12:47.000 I mean, if you try to play the call to prayer in Colorado Springs, Colorado, or in Lubbock, Texas, that dog won't hunt.
00:12:56.000 You try to play the call to prayer, the Muslim call to prayer, in Enid, Oklahoma, not going to work.
00:13:04.000 Jake was a Needed with us, wasn't he?
00:13:05.000 Yeah, he was an Eid.
00:13:06.000 Call to Prayer wouldn't work there, right?
00:13:07.000 No.
00:13:08.000 The point is that how did the city of Minneapolis change to all of a sudden where there's people demanding the call to prayer every single day?
00:13:16.000 And of course, it's because of mass immigration.
00:13:18.000 And this is one of the immature ways we talk about immigration in our country.
00:13:24.000 And look, I fully admit, and I know, in fact, I see it firsthand, that some immigration can be a massive benefit to a country.
00:13:32.000 Of course, prudent and let's say wise immigration policies can be a benefit.
00:13:40.000 But whatever benefit you might see from a certain population of immigration, you can have a massive and detrimental and civilization and cultural ending downside of the wrong types of immigration.
00:13:52.000 Now, someone say, well, Charlie, what is the wrong type of immigration?
00:13:55.000 How about groups that don't assimilate?
00:13:58.000 Assimilation is always a key component of immigration.
00:14:01.000 So when you come to America and you feel compelled that you now need to go broadcast the call to prayer all throughout Minneapolis, I don't know if that's assimilation.
00:14:09.000 Maybe you think it is.
00:14:11.000 I don't.
00:14:12.000 And not to mention, you have Elon Omar, who has nothing nice to say about America.
00:14:18.000 She's an ingrate.
00:14:20.000 And of course, we are, we talk about these things conflated.
00:14:24.000 I don't even talk about what's happening on the southern borders immigration.
00:14:26.000 It's illegal border crossing into America.
00:14:29.000 It's breaking into our country.
00:14:31.000 And you look at the 1950s after World War II, we declined immigration rates dramatically.
00:14:38.000 For about 10 years, we had very low legal immigration rates as a way to try to digest the meal, if you will, of a mass immigration surge.
00:14:47.000 American Immigration Acts, American Immigration Policy went up and it went down and went up.
00:14:52.000 And when it went down, it was largely because people said, wait a second, wages aren't really increasing.
00:14:57.000 We need some time to assimilate.
00:14:58.000 We need some time to bring these people into our country appropriately.
00:15:01.000 And so just so you know the numbers, we give out anywhere between one to one and a half million green cards every single year.
00:15:08.000 That's just legal.
00:15:09.000 And that is way too much.
00:15:11.000 Like extraordinary too much.
00:15:14.000 And then illegal immigration, we have anywhere between two to five million people illegally crossing into our country.
00:15:22.000 All of that being said, as Dan Patrick articulated it, Lieutenant Governor of Texas, terrific guy, one in five human beings in America will have been here with criminal trespassing into our country, breaking in.
00:15:36.000 One in five people will have shattered the window to break into the living room of America.
00:15:42.000 One in five people brought to you by the cartel.
00:15:45.000 And so the people in charge have a decision to make, and the decision they're making is: let's just change the type of thing America is.
00:15:53.000 This whole idea of being a country, eh, we don't like it.
00:15:56.000 It kind of gets in the way.
00:15:58.000 The idea of being a country, we have to deal with all those people from Nebraska and Kansas and South Dakota and Iowa and the panhandle of Florida and northern Arizona and southern Utah.
00:16:07.000 We don't like those people.
00:16:08.000 Instead, let's just change the type of thing that we are.
00:16:12.000 We've had more people move to America since 1965 than we have from the discovery of America until 1965.
00:16:21.000 Massive immigration, mass immigration, uncontrolled, imprudent, reckless immigration, which what we have now is an assault on patriotism, our country, and a shared cultural identity.
00:16:36.000 If one in five people are here illegally, do they have reverence for Thomas Jefferson and James Madison?
00:16:43.000 Do they appreciate the American story?
00:16:46.000 Maybe, probably not.
00:16:48.000 And so that then changes the type of thing.
00:16:51.000 It breaks apart the fabric of our nation.
00:16:54.000 You just stop being a country and you just kind of become this mixture of different languages and cultures.
00:17:01.000 And all you really have is commerce.
00:17:02.000 And that's really what the corporate elites want.
00:17:04.000 They want the colonization of America.
00:17:07.000 But first, they have to break the type of thing that we are.
00:17:10.000 Now, what is the reason they want to try to turn America into a colony and no longer be a country?
00:17:15.000 Well, colonies are easier to control.
00:17:18.000 Think about it from just kind of our founding.
00:17:20.000 We are now reversing the founding of America.
00:17:24.000 We're almost going backwards in time.
00:17:26.000 It's like the Benjamin Button of America.
00:17:28.000 It's like we fully develop into a constitutional republic.
00:17:32.000 We go back into what we were.
00:17:35.000 If you don't know who Benjamin Button is, it's a rather entertaining movie of a guy who ages backwards.
00:17:39.000 It's very interesting.
00:17:42.000 And they tell us why they want to do this.
00:17:45.000 And if we dare say this out loud, they lose their mind.
00:17:48.000 I don't have any sort of agenda as to I want this to be true.
00:17:53.000 The media loses their bearings when you even mention this.
00:17:58.000 They say that there's some sort of racial underpinning.
00:18:01.000 No, it's just listen to what their own words are.
00:18:04.000 Julian Castro brags that in a few cycles, the electoral votes of Texas will be going to Democrats because of mass immigration.
00:18:11.000 Play cut 14.
00:18:14.000 In a couple of presidential cycles, you'll be on election night.
00:18:17.000 You'll be announcing that we're calling the 38 electoral votes of Texas for the Democratic nominee for president.
00:18:23.000 It's changing.
00:18:24.000 It's going to become a purple state and then a blue state because of the demographics, because of the population growth of folks from outside of Texas.
00:18:32.000 Because of demographics, because of population growth.
00:18:35.000 He's bragging with a smug smile.
00:18:37.000 Now, thankfully, nine years later, he's wrong.
00:18:41.000 And I will say this, that there is kind of this attitude sometimes in Texas where it says keep Californians out of Texas.
00:18:49.000 In Austin, that's probably true.
00:18:52.000 But if you look at the data, Texas has net benefited politically from out of staters moving to Texas.
00:18:59.000 It's been a net benefit, especially in Plano and in North Dallas.
00:19:03.000 There's been plenty of negatives, but generally more conservatives than not have moved into Texas.
00:19:09.000 Arizona, that is not the case.
00:19:11.000 It remains to be seen in the coming months how Arizona shakes out Florida.
00:19:15.000 Massive increase.
00:19:17.000 Cut 15, this is Judith Brown Dianis, We Are Democracy 2019 conference, who says, look, people know they say that demographics are not destiny.
00:19:28.000 Well, we're trying to make it destiny.
00:19:30.000 Play Cut 15.
00:19:31.000 So that when we get to 2042 or 2045, whatever year you want to use, that we actually will not be suffering from what other countries like South Africa have, which is having the numbers but not having the power.
00:19:46.000 We want, you know, people say demographics are not destiny, well, we're trying to make it destiny.
00:19:51.000 So that's the work that we're doing.
00:19:53.000 And then, and that's a perfect note to transition to the next piece, which is intersectionality.
00:20:00.000 So they say it out loud.
00:20:02.000 They say that they want loose immigration policy, mass immigration to try to change the country that we live in.
00:20:10.000 That is the agenda.
00:20:12.000 Now, mind you, it seems as if there is not this overwhelming urge to try and have immigrants come into America that share Western values.
00:20:24.000 It seems as if there's always kind of an urge to try to bring people into America that are distant from the story of the country, that are at odds with it, actually.
00:20:36.000 Distant from what it means to actually be an American.
00:20:39.000 Elon Omar is the best example of this.
00:20:41.000 Elon Omar has nothing but negative things to say about America.
00:20:45.000 She's a member of Congress.
00:20:46.000 She was saved from a refugee camp thanks to the benevolence and the generosity of America.
00:20:52.000 Now, don't you find it interesting that there was this massive push for Afghan refugees, mass media campaign, yet there really hasn't been much of a push for Ukrainian refugees, where Ukrainian refugees are much more in alignment with Western values and traditional conservative values, by the way, than Afghan refugees.
00:21:14.000 There was a mass media campaign to try to bring Afghan refugees in.
00:21:18.000 I haven't seen that same sort of mass media campaign.
00:21:20.000 There's been a little news story here and there about bringing some Ukrainian refugees.
00:21:24.000 Four million Ukrainian refugees have left Ukraine and come into Poland.
00:21:29.000 And one of the reasons why the World Economic Forum is okay with that is because it deteriorates sovereignty of Ukraine into Poland and destroys Polish sovereignty.
00:21:41.000 Monica Crowley said this on Steve Bannon's program recently.
00:21:45.000 It was a very, very smart point.
00:21:47.000 But why isn't there a mass media campaign to try to bring Ukrainian refugees in?
00:21:53.000 Some of the most conservative, hardworking, down-to-earth, incredible people that I know are Ukrainians and really conservative.
00:22:06.000 So why wouldn't the regime, oh, maybe that's why the regime doesn't want them in?
00:22:10.000 There might be a couple things on the edges to bring Ukrainians into the country, but nothing like Afghan people.
00:22:16.000 Why is that?
00:22:17.000 That doesn't make a lot of sense.
00:22:19.000 And so they say, oh, no, that's Poland's responsibility.
00:22:22.000 Or it's Europe.
00:22:22.000 So let me get this straight.
00:22:23.000 So it's Europe's responsibility to bring in Ukrainian refugees, but it's not any country in the Middle East responsibility, like Saudi Arabia's responsibility to bring in Afghan refugees or the United Arab Emirates to bring in Afghan refugees or Yemen or Oman.
00:22:37.000 Yemen's a little war-torn right now.
00:22:40.000 So it's a regional problem when Ukraine gets blown apart, but it's a global problem when Afghanistan gets blown apart.
00:22:49.000 Why is that?
00:22:50.000 Let's go to cut nine, Obama, DHS Secretary Jay Johnson on the influx of the illegals at the southern border under Biden.
00:22:57.000 Now, this is a huge opportunity for conservatives.
00:23:01.000 There's a massive opportunity, two of them, opportunities that are just being missed right now.
00:23:06.000 Number one, there's a great opening to win over black voters and win over black independence around this idea of open borders.
00:23:18.000 They don't support open borders and they shouldn't.
00:23:20.000 And also win over Hispanics.
00:23:23.000 Play cut nine.
00:23:24.000 Without a doubt, these are large numbers.
00:23:29.000 But still, numbers at these level are difficult to handle.
00:23:34.000 And obviously, the Biden administration is paying a political cost for this.
00:23:41.000 Now, you better believe they're paying a political cost.
00:23:44.000 People are upset.
00:23:45.000 They're beyond upset right now.
00:23:47.000 In fact, MSNBC is even admitting this.
00:23:50.000 In Cut 17, Joe Scarborough rails against the white woke Democrats who are now losing the minority vote.
00:23:58.000 If Republicans talk about law and order, crime, the southern border, inflation, we're going to see a huge potential to win over minority voters in a once-in-a-generation opportunity.
00:24:13.000 Play Cut 17.
00:24:15.000 But let's just say it right here, and let me say it slowly for my Democratic friends in Washington, D.C. Black voters are more conservative than you are, white woke leaders in Washington, D.C. Hispanic voters are more conservative than you are, white woke leaders in Washington, D.C. Asian American voters are more conservative than you are, white woke voters in Washington, D.C.
00:24:42.000 And they're more conservative on crime.
00:24:44.000 They're more conservative on education.
00:24:47.000 They're more conservative on quote these woke issues.
00:24:51.000 Get off of Twitter.
00:24:55.000 Can you please, I know you've done it a lot.
00:24:57.000 Can you explain to white woke leaders, can you explain to them that they're not only losing white dudes in the upper Midwest, they're losing people of color.
00:25:10.000 Joe Scarborough is saying, look, white woke Democrats are going to create a massive political liability.
00:25:16.000 He's right.
00:25:17.000 Do you know that most Hispanics don't think men can become pregnant?
00:25:20.000 Most Hispanics believe men cannot become pregnant.
00:25:24.000 Type into Google, can men become pregnant?
00:25:27.000 Everyone should do this.
00:25:28.000 Type it into Google.
00:25:29.000 It says this, men can become pregnant.
00:25:33.000 If you type it into Google, male pregnancy is one of the first things that pop up.
00:25:38.000 It is possible for a person to be pregnant if they identify as a man.
00:25:44.000 Why is it that the regime of Silicon Valley and social media and in all these people, they find it so insistent to push forward these unpopular, these radical, and these fringe ideas despite the cost that is being associated with it?
00:26:01.000 And there is a serious political cost.
00:26:03.000 There is a cost of open borders, a cost of a poorest country.
00:26:09.000 Most people actually want to live in a country.
00:26:12.000 They do not want to live in a colony.
00:26:14.000 And you're seeing this actually in France.
00:26:17.000 You saw this in Hungary.
00:26:18.000 There is a worldwide trajectory right now, not just in America, of a rebellion and a push against the colonization of the West.
00:26:30.000 In France, there was a very narrow election that will go to a runoff between Maureen Le Pen and against Macron, and they're now going to a runoff.
00:26:40.000 Now, I'm not going to say that we're behind Le Pen or not behind.
00:26:43.000 I don't know enough about her.
00:26:44.000 I don't.
00:26:44.000 People seem to really like her or hate her.
00:26:46.000 The media totally hates her.
00:26:47.000 I need to learn more about her.
00:26:48.000 I'm not into French politics, nor would you expect me to.
00:26:51.000 But I do know that from just reading a little bit about this, there is a resurgence of French everyday people that are pushing back against the World Economic Forum and French identity being destroyed.
00:27:05.000 The West is pushing back against this idea that we must be ruled from Davos and you have nothing that ties you together to your fellow countrymen.
00:27:15.000 So HIT Strategies has been conducting weekly focus groups to find out in real time how Americans are processing what's happened so far in this calendar year.
00:27:24.000 On Monday night, we watched discussions.
00:27:26.000 Is politico.com with two different subgroups of partisan Democrats assembled by the firm.
00:27:33.000 Black base always votes for Dems, ages 25 plus, and Youth Base always votes for Democrats, ages 25 to 39.
00:27:41.000 There were significant differences within between the two groups of nine voters.
00:27:46.000 Between were some broad takeaways.
00:27:48.000 A preoccupation with inflation and crime, exhaustion with pandemic restrictions, cynicism about politics, deep frustration with Biden and Democrats have failed to deliver on their early promises, some sympathy for Ukraine mixed with a lack of enthusiasm for Biden, spending too much time and money on the issue, and ambiguity about how January 6 should be for Democrats in the midterms.
00:28:12.000 This is their base.
00:28:14.000 Their base is not even buying any of this stuff.
00:28:17.000 But watching the three and a half hours of conversations, you notice a yawning gap between what Democrats here in D.C. are saying and what their most loyal voters are experiencing outside of the beltway.
00:28:28.000 This is especially true on two issues.
00:28:30.000 Politico writes, the economy.
00:28:32.000 A cottage industry of White House officials and left-wing media critics who talk to each other on Twitter have convinced themselves that the media is responsible for the public overwhelming focus on bad news of inflation rather than the good news of low employment and rising wages.
00:28:46.000 When the voters were asked to describe how they feel about how things are going, their base responded with exhausted, uptight, unsure, concerned, and anxious.
00:28:56.000 That's their base.
00:28:57.000 A woman from the Boston area who went first mentioned rising gas and food prices, food shortages at her local Whole Foods, and the increasing cost of housing.
00:29:07.000 It just seems like everything is going up and there's no end in sight.
00:29:10.000 Well, you voted for it, so I don't feel bad for you.
00:29:13.000 In the other focus group, a black man from the Houston area talked about trying to subsist on 12 and 13 hour jobs as he was being offered, quote, no one can live off of that, especially with inflation.
00:29:24.000 Well, I don't know if you voted for Democrats, but if you did, you got what you wanted.
00:29:28.000 You didn't think through your vote.
00:29:29.000 We tried to warn you.
00:29:30.000 MSNBC says that this is what Democrats are focusing on.
00:29:34.000 They're focused on censoring conservative voices on social media like me, college campuses becoming liberal echo chambers, the push to be political correct, and canceling historical figures.
00:29:45.000 District attorneys in major cities are going soft on crime, bail reform failure in New York, crime spike in San Francisco, and 2020 support for defund the police is haunting the Democrats in 2022.
00:29:57.000 Meanwhile, you contrast that with the most fired up base I've ever seen.
00:30:01.000 Conservatives, Republicans.
00:30:03.000 I mean, I don't think there's going to be a single conservative in the country that does not show up to vote and bring 10 people to vote in November.
00:30:09.000 Now, I'm not saying it's going to be a landslide.
00:30:11.000 I'm not going to say that I am not ready to bring it to the bank yet, especially with our insecure elections in some states, the lack of voter integrity bills, all sorts of things happening.
00:30:22.000 And there's a couple wildcards.
00:30:24.000 There's a great book in that book, great article in The New Republic.
00:30:27.000 Democrats are not dead yet.
00:30:28.000 I agree.
00:30:29.000 New Republic is a communist rag, but it says, despite conventional wisdom, the party is not doomed in November's midterm elections.
00:30:37.000 The economy, COVID-19, the invasion of Ukraine, and January 6th insurrection are all wildcards.
00:30:42.000 I agree.
00:30:43.000 They're not dead yet, but they're not really making any sort of meaningful changes or adjustments to try and capture swing voters or persuadables.
00:30:54.000 In fact, it seems to be the exact opposite.
00:30:56.000 In fact, it seems to be that they are doubling and tripling down on what is unpopular.
00:31:01.000 It says here, young people want to see action.
00:31:04.000 A warning sign about young people's political enthusiasm came out of Virginia's governor's race.
00:31:08.000 Young people are not enthusiastic for Democrats.
00:31:11.000 They are experiencing the crushing weight of their student loan debt, their inability to buy property, the breaking of their financial feasibility to be able to survive.
00:31:24.000 Virginia was a canary in the coal mine for Democrats.
00:31:27.000 But I think things are even worse today than they were for Democrats in Virginia back in November.
00:31:33.000 Elections are there for a reason.
00:31:35.000 They are the check in the balance for the people, the sovereign, for us to give our power to people in charge.
00:31:41.000 And there's something looming here.
00:31:42.000 But to tie it all together, the regime and the people that are making decisions in America, the elites, they do not want us to be a country any longer.
00:31:51.000 That's really one of the things on the ballot coming in November.
