The Charlie Kirk Show - The Controlled Demolition of American Sovereignty with Drew Hernandez

00:00:00.000 I'm Alex Marlowe, editor-in-chief of Breitbart News, and I'm in for Charlie yet again.

00:00:04.000 And on this episode, we speak to Drew Hernandez live from Yuma, Arizona on one of the broadcasts on yesterday's show.

00:00:12.000 We spoke to Savannah Hernandez from a checkpoint in an actual point of entry in Texas.

00:00:17.000 We're getting another element of the border crisis in this episode with Drew Hernandez from Turning Points Frontlines live from Yuma, but he's not at a checkpoint.

00:00:27.000 He's one of those in-between areas where you're seeing the real gnarly stuff that goes down as part of this illegal alien massive migration cycle that we're in.

00:00:37.000 Contrasting those is really important, and Drew always gives a hard-hitting report.

00:00:41.000 Then we do a huge news roundup covering the 2024 presidential race, which is taking shape, some surprises that just broke, and the insidious nature of the trans panic is somehow getting worse despite the best efforts by folks like Charlie and me and others.

00:00:57.000 And the powers that be, just encouraging massive consumer culture to make us all much, much fatter.

00:01:03.000 Yes, fatter.

00:01:04.000 I explain all that in the show.

00:01:06.000 Clip into those five-point harnesses because here we go.

00:01:10.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.

00:01:11.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campuses.

00:01:13.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.

00:01:17.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.

00:01:20.000 I want to thank Charlie.

00:01:21.000 He's an incredible guy.

00:01:22.000 His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.

00:01:31.000 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.

00:01:39.000 That's why we are here.

00:01:43.000 One thing that's going on in the CNN newsroom is their leadership is under fire after the disastrous Trump Town Hall.

00:01:50.000 It's noteworthy because they pulled huge ratings and they were the center of a conversation, which if one thing you've learned from President Trump is that he's clearly of the mind that all press is good press.

00:02:01.000 And if you embrace that, then wasn't this all good press for CNN?

00:02:04.000 Well, apparently not.

00:02:06.000 It seems like because all of the wokesters within their newsroom and many without outside of the newsroom were acting as though this was a horrible thing for a news network to platform Donald Trump, who got to say whatever he wanted for the most part.

00:02:22.000 And there was very little defense CNN could put up other than to fact check in real time, which went very poorly both during the town hall and afterwards.

00:02:32.000 And what is left of CNN's audience, I don't know what that is.

00:02:35.000 I mean, CNN's audience just who watches.

00:02:39.000 Is it just people in airports, I guess?

00:02:41.000 But they're not happy.

00:02:42.000 And we'll see where this goes.

00:02:44.000 But CNN seems to be doubling down.

00:02:48.000 They're going to give Caitlin Collins the Don Lamoan slot at 9 p.m. 1.00

00:02:52.000 So we can expect more of this from the future, I think.

00:02:56.000 It is noteworthy that people, and I don't need to play it, but people have been sharing this clip of Caitlin Collins when she's the daily caller dunking on George Soros for wanting to keep the borders open.

00:03:08.000 And that irks the left, too.

00:03:10.000 So this is really sort of a 360 lose for CNN.

00:03:14.000 The right, of course, is not happy with CNN because, you know, Trump calls her a nasty person in the context of her not letting him finish or that she could just get in her two cents, that she disagrees with whatever opinion Trump gives.

00:03:27.000 But then the left is not happy either because she used to work for Tucker Carlson at the Daily Caller and used to write up stories about how Soros is not a good guy and wants to keep the borders open.

00:03:36.000 So all of this is delightful.

00:03:38.000 There was one point that she made, though, that I did want to come back to, that the Trump, she said that Trump never ordered the National Guard or she had claimed that then President Trump never ordered the National Guard to the Capitol during January the 6th.

00:03:55.000 And this is highly misleading.

00:03:57.000 And it's worth pointing this out because not many people are going to bother to cover this, but we did a big story on this with Joel Pollock at Breitbart.com, where he wrote this up.

00:04:06.000 Trump offered the National Guard up, and this was very clear.

00:04:11.000 And Collins didn't have her fact straight on this.

00:04:14.000 She was attempting to try to fact-check Trump in real time.

00:04:18.000 And she began asking about how he didn't do enough to send the National Guard.

00:04:23.000 But Trump said crazy Nancy Pelosi and the mayor of Washington were in charge, and they did not do their jobs.

00:04:30.000 Collins said Trump was in charge, but he offered up the National Guard to them, which they denied.

00:04:35.000 And this happened at the this is probably ringing a bell for many of you because this certainly happened at the time.

00:04:41.000 At the time, this was 100% in the news cycle.

00:04:47.000 This was well known that Trump was saying, we'll give you the resources you need, but Pelosi and others didn't want it.

00:04:53.000 And why didn't they want it?

00:04:55.000 Maybe because what they were witnessing play out, they saw the political benefit of it.

00:05:00.000 Maybe they were getting some intel on the ground that things weren't quite as bad as the media was making it out to be.

00:05:05.000 As we saw case in point, we saw case in point the fact that the unearthed footage, some of what we got of the latest January the 6th footage, really did show some of those Capitol guards seeming to give tours of the Capitol.

00:05:23.000 Now, I'm not saying that wasn't literally what they were doing.

00:05:25.000 For those of you in the Soros-funded freaks realm of the audience, but you saw Jacob Chansley, the QNAN shaman, the guy with the Viking horns and the beaver pelt.

00:05:34.000 He was essentially being led around.

00:05:36.000 The one person who was killed was Ashley Babbitt by an officer.

00:05:41.000 This is not someone who, this is not a scenario that comports with the media's portrayal of it.

00:05:45.000 And this is yet another example.

00:05:47.000 And it was good for Trump to get it in there and bat on CNN for this bogus fact check.

00:05:52.000 And recall that the fact checks for CNN, they're almost always nearly 100% always in one direction, and that is to make Trump seem like a bad guy.

00:06:01.000 We got Drew Hernandez on the line from the border.

00:06:04.000 Why don't we throw it to Drew?

00:06:06.000 Drew, great to talk to you.

00:06:07.000 Front lines for Turning Point USA.

00:06:09.000 I'm always impressed with Drew's work.

00:06:10.000 I always love talking to him.

00:06:12.000 Drew, I want to keep you for a little bit, but give me a 360 overview of what you're seeing down there.

00:06:17.000 Yeah, Alex.

00:06:17.000 So last night we are here down at the formerly known southern border, the open border, Yuma, Arizona sector, where it is absolutely open.

00:06:25.000 Title 42 did expire last night, 9 p.m. local time.

00:06:28.000 And we already saw individuals, illegals, okay, invading and rushing the southern border. 0.96

00:06:33.000 We have the footage if you guys want to queue it over if it isn't already, but these individuals are being staged in the Mexico side and by the hundreds.

00:06:40.000 Now, here's the interesting thing about Yuma, Alex, is normally you see this kind of stuff happening between 3 a.m., 6 a.m., sometimes even, you know, around 2 a.m.

00:06:51.000 But they started last night when Title 42 expired right on the dot, right at 9 p.m.

00:06:56.000 These individuals began coming right over.

00:06:59.000 And it's interesting because last night, Secretary DHS Secretary Mayorkas was coming out and claiming that, oh, individuals are going to be turned away.

00:07:06.000 And if you come not in the proper way, then you're not going to be able to come into the United States.

00:07:11.000 That's not necessarily true because what you're seeing here, this is not an official point of entry.

00:07:16.000 This is just an absolute open point at this formerly known southern border in Yuma.

00:07:21.000 And these people are continuing.

00:07:23.000 I talked to some of the Border Patrol agents because I wanted to confirm.

00:07:26.000 I said, hey, just be honest with me, man.

00:07:28.000 Are you guys deporting these people?

00:07:30.000 And this is hundreds, Alex.

00:07:32.000 These are by the hundreds every 30 minutes.

00:07:35.000 No exaggeration.

00:07:36.000 Hundreds every 30 minutes, like clockwork, right?

00:07:39.000 Looks like a line at Disneyland or something like that. 0.98

00:07:41.000 It's ridiculous.

00:07:42.000 And I asked him, I said, sir, are these individuals getting deported like Maorca said? 0.95

00:07:47.000 He said, no.

00:07:48.000 I said, so it's just another night for you guys.

00:07:51.000 Just another night.

00:07:52.000 And he said, absolutely, nothing's really changed.

00:07:54.000 So that's what we're continuing to see.

00:07:56.000 It's nothing but propaganda you see in the media coming from the federal government.

00:07:59.000 It's nothing but continual lies to make it look like all is well.

00:08:02.000 But at least I could speak on behalf of what was taking place last night when Title 42 expired, Yuma, Arizona.

00:08:09.000 The border, I can report, is still open.

00:08:11.000 So do you find that what you're seeing is people coming more towards the points of entry, or are still many people trying to sneak in towards points that are not points of entry?

00:08:21.000 Because it feels like the signal the government is sending is that you come to a point of entry, you're getting to a notice to appear sometime in 2027, maybe 2030.

00:08:30.000 You may as well just take your chances and just get that and then just start living your life, take a bus somewhere to America.

00:08:37.000 Or are you finding people are trying to really just kind of scoot across the Rio Grande and not where you are in Yuma, but I mean, figuratively speaking, just kind of get in and figure things out as you go.

00:08:49.000 That's absolutely correct.

00:08:50.000 That's exactly what's taking place.

00:08:52.000 These are not points of entry.

00:08:53.000 These are just open parts that the cartels have facilitated and showed the illegals how they can get across.

00:09:00.000 And then obviously we all know this by now, the Border Patrol are essentially a legalized human trafficking Uber service for these individuals.

00:09:07.000 And they just stand in line and they wait because they know the Americans are going to let them straight into the country. 0.95

00:09:12.000 You know, specifically, Alex, to answer your question a little more, add a little more nuance to it, I asked Border Patrol and I said, okay, NTAs, notice to appear in court, right?

00:09:21.000 That's what these individuals are receiving, not getting deported.

00:09:24.000 He said, yeah, about 90%.

00:09:25.000 And I'm talking about hundreds every 30 minutes.

00:09:29.000 He said, the majority of these individuals, they're receiving NTAs.

00:09:32.000 90% of them are.

00:09:34.000 I said, well, how many are actually going to abide by that, regardless of what the timeframe is, whether it's appear in court 10 days or 10 years from now?

00:09:42.000 He said less than 10%.

00:09:45.000 And he said that just absolutely numb to the core.

00:09:47.000 These people are being demoralized, the Southern Border Agents.

00:09:51.000 That's what's happening in the United States.

00:09:52.000 So the lies that the Feds put out, it's nothing but propaganda.

00:09:56.000 Because when you go down and you actually take a look at this for yourself, it is the complete opposite.

00:10:01.000 I went down to the border and did a big tour there a couple of years ago, trying to go both to points of entry and to some of these places where there was a lot of entry from people who were not going to go through the system, who were just your standard run-of-the-mill illegal aliens trying to sneak in.

00:10:16.000 And to talk to the Border Patrol, to talk to law enforcement there, it was really one of some of the most heartbreaking things because when our border policies lax, their lives get much worse.

00:10:27.000 Their families' lives get much worse.

00:10:29.000 And they're not discussed here.

00:10:31.000 And most of them are too classy to say anything.

00:10:33.000 Some of them will talk to some of us, like you and some of our oppors at Breitbart on background.

00:10:37.000 But I want to hear, because you're down there, what you're hearing, what people are telling you.

00:10:41.000 You mentioned they're demoralized, but I'm going to ask you to put some color on that.

00:10:44.000 Plus, give me more detail on what you're seeing down at the border.

00:10:47.000 Turning point in frontlines have cruised throughout the border right now, which is pretty amazing.

00:10:52.000 We spoke to Savannah yesterday from Texas, and now we're speaking to Drew from Arizona.

00:10:57.000 This is a massive crisis, one of the biggest we've ever seen.

00:11:01.000 Record immigration is only getting worse, illegal immigration, to be precise.

00:11:05.000 Look, it is time to consider a rollover of that 401k into an IRA.

00:11:10.000 The investment world is completely different in 2023, and you cannot do the same thing as last year.

00:11:15.000 Woke companies are aggressively implementing ESG.

00:11:20.000 Interest rates are going up and inflation is still lingering.

00:11:22.000 If you have over $150,000, now is the time to move your money to a biblical responsible investing strategy with my friends at PAX Financial Group.

00:11:30.000 Here's how you can connect with PAX.

00:11:32.000 Text Charlie to the number 74868.

00:11:35.000 Just take out your phone.

00:11:35.000 That's it.

00:11:36.000 Text Charlie, C-H-A-R-L-I-E to 74868.

00:11:44.000 So take out your phone.

00:11:46.000 Text Charlie to number 74868 for biblical responsible investing.

00:11:51.000 Text Charlie to 748-68.

00:11:56.000 We're talking about the families.

00:11:58.000 We're talking about the communities, the people who are at the border.

00:12:01.000 Now, we spoke to JD Vance in the last hour talking about how really every community is a border community in some ways.

00:12:06.000 But I want to be literal here.

00:12:08.000 This is when you have an open border and the government is sending a signal that if you're an economic migrant, then you can come here and we'll basically welcome you in, at least for a period of a few years.

00:12:18.000 What does this do to the communities and particularly the families of law enforcement who are down there?

00:12:23.000 Well, the communities, especially the border towns, but like I think that's an accurate assessment.

00:12:28.000 These individuals are being spread throughout the United States of America.

00:12:32.000 Everything you see for viewers at home, everything you see with makeshift, you know, illegal camps with these individuals that are just making homeless shelters and camps down there in these border towns, that is all getting dispersed and deployed into the United States of America, not by the thousands, not by the tens of thousands.

00:12:49.000 This is in the millions of individuals because this is happening.

00:12:51.000 Like I said, I'm not exaggerating.

00:12:53.000 Every 30 minutes, hundreds of these people are coming.

00:12:56.000 A lot of violence and crime is going to rise.

00:12:59.000 Okay, the rise in fentanyl and drugs is going to rise.

00:13:03.000 You're going to see law and order continue to get dismantled.

00:13:05.000 If law and order doesn't exist to uphold and secure this country, why would law and order exist when they're actually in states or cities?

00:13:14.000 These people will be protected.

00:13:15.000 These people will be invincible.

00:13:17.000 You will not be able to speak out against them.

00:13:19.000 They'll protect them over you because this is about dismantling the American citizen. 0.87

00:13:23.000 This is about dismantling American sovereignty.

00:13:26.000 This is more than just a border crisis.

00:13:28.000 This is a strategically planned crisis.

00:13:30.000 The UN is involved in all of this with all these NGOs.

00:13:33.000 The UN helps these people and facilitates these people.

00:13:36.000 How do these people that have the education of a first grader navigate throughout the entire world from these foreign third world countries to the United States?

00:13:45.000 We've seen reporters on the ground.

00:13:47.000 I've seen this as well with documents from the United Nations, these NGOs that help these people get to the United States illegally.

00:13:53.000 We've seen yesterday viral footage go out.

00:13:55.000 They're getting government-issued cell phones.

00:13:58.000 I mean, all of this is happening by design.

00:14:01.000 The UN put out a report, Alex.

00:14:03.000 They put out a report in the year 2000, and the report was, there's replacement migration.

00:14:08.000 This was the question.

00:14:09.000 This is how they titled the report.

00:14:10.000 Does replacement migration fix a depopulating nation or an aging nation?

00:14:15.000 And they said by the year 2050, this is their quote, the United Nations, these globalists, by the year 2050, all the so-called immigrants and immigration from 1995, all of those people to 2050 will be the large population of the United States of America.

00:14:31.000 So you begin to ask yourself and put all the pieces together, why is this happening?

00:14:35.000 Is it just some kind of crisis that's out of control?

00:14:37.000 No, this is a controlled demolition of American sovereignty, and you're watching it in real time.

00:14:42.000 And who are the main beneficiaries?

00:14:43.000 It's the cartels.

00:14:44.000 The cartels are the ones who are orchestrating this whole thing.

00:14:47.000 They're the ones who are getting rich.

00:14:48.000 They're the ones who are treating these people as if they're in indentured servitude.

00:14:53.000 And this is completely fine with Alejandro Mayorkas.

00:14:56.000 We opened the show today playing clips of him saying that we need to keep the border open, so to speak, because there are all these people who need money.

00:15:05.000 They need work.

00:15:06.000 They need to be able to send money back to their countries and to feed their families as if that's our responsibility as American citizens.

00:15:13.000 This is not a responsibility.

00:15:14.000 We need lots of humanitarian aid.

00:15:15.000 We're free to give a lot of charity.

00:15:17.000 We are free to start businesses elsewhere.

00:15:19.000 But it's not our charge to use taxpayer dollars to be able to process, house, tolerate all of this illegal immigration, all its downstream effects, only for them to take the money from our economy and to send it back home.

00:15:33.000 But this is the logic of the current regime.

00:15:36.000 Absolutely, because it's about dismantling American sovereignty.

00:15:39.000 It's the same thing they're doing with Ukraine, Alex.

00:15:41.000 You and I both know this.

00:15:42.000 Just send tens of billions of dollars to Ukraine while America gets destabilized and falls and turns into a third world country because it's a virtue signal.

00:15:49.000 We have to save the world.

00:15:50.000 We have to nation build.

00:15:51.000 We just have to run around and make sure we're saving everyone on planet Earth.

00:15:55.000 It's not possible.

00:15:56.000 Only God can save humanity.

00:15:58.000 We can't.

00:15:58.000 America can only do so much with the wealth that we have.

00:16:01.000 We are a superpower.

00:16:02.000 But America's enemies know, and this is why they hate her. 0.99

00:16:05.000 We are a superpower and they're dismantling us from within.

00:16:08.000 And I'll tell you, that's a good point, Alex. 0.96

00:16:11.000 The ones that benefit are these cartels, these evil individuals that rape little girls, rape little boys before they even get to the United States southern border on their journey.

00:16:23.000 Doesn't want to talk about it, but even though they know this stuff happens, they still incentivize it and they still encourage these people to do this because they try to virtue signal and say, well, you know, Orange Man is gone.

00:16:32.000 We love you.

00:16:32.000 Now's the time.

00:16:33.000 We're an open and free country and, you know, we're tolerant and we just want everyone to come here.

00:16:37.000 Yeah.

00:16:38.000 At the expense of little girls and little boys being molested and raped and abducted on their journey.

00:16:43.000 AOC never talks about that.

00:16:45.000 The federal government never talks about that.

00:16:47.000 President Joe Biden never talks about that.

00:16:49.000 Vice President Kamala Harris never talks about it.

00:16:52.000 Well, you want to know what's even more sinister of them just ignoring that, Alex?

00:16:55.000 They know about it.

00:16:57.000 They know this stuff happens.

00:16:59.000 We can't sit here and think they don't, but they do, Alex. 0.93

00:17:01.000 And that is so disgusting. 0.86

00:17:02.000 Yeah.

00:17:02.000 And they've known for a long time, but they feel like it's worth it.

00:17:05.000 Drew Hernandez, wonderful stuff.

00:17:06.000 Drew H. Live on Twitter.

00:17:08.000 He's posting live footage.

00:17:12.000 This is Charlie Kirk, and we're saving babies at Pre-Born.

00:17:15.000 What are you doing today?

00:17:16.000 When you introduce a girl to her baby by providing an ultrasound, you're giving her the truth at the most important time in her life. 0.53

00:17:22.000 And more than 85% of the time, when she sees the baby and hears that baby's heartbeat, she will choose life.

00:17:28.000 And what better time than do it than May, the month we celebrate motherhood?

00:17:33.000 $140 gives just five mothers a free ultrasound and saves babies.

00:17:36.000 $280 can save 10 babies.

00:17:38.000 And just $28 a month can save a baby a month for less than a dollar a day.

00:17:42.000 And a $15,000 gift will provide an ultrasound machine that will save lives for years to come.

00:17:47.000 Whether you want to save one baby or five or hundreds, that opportunity is a phone call or click away.

00:17:52.000 Maybe this month you could provide ultrasounds in honor of your mom. 0.64

00:18:15.000 We had a story up at Breitbart News from John Nolte, one of our most interesting writers, groomer backlash, Disney stock downgraded for cognitive dissonance.

00:18:24.000 It's because you can't trust your kids with Disney anymore.

00:18:27.000 I've got young kids, and this is a tough battle because if you look at the classic Disney content, look at the Pixar content, some of the best storytelling that ever existed, and mostly family friendly.

00:18:38.000 But if there's anything new on Disney, you have to be incredibly cautious before you put it on in your kids' households.

00:18:46.000 And the reason is, is because they're putting all sorts of different woke stuff in it at every turn.

00:18:52.000 And once you let your guard down, then the groomers will get in there. 0.98

00:18:56.000 But it's not just Disney, it's all over the place.

00:18:58.000 Target now has a pride collection that includes items for children and babies.

00:19:04.000 And it's not just gay pride.

00:19:06.000 This is the trans pride too. 0.96

00:19:09.000 All we ask is you keep the kids out of it.

00:19:11.000 We've got a photo, Hannah Blue, writing for us at Breitbart.com as a photo op of a take pride section, which is kids' stuff in it.

00:19:19.000 And it's not just the rainbow flag.

00:19:21.000 It's the one with the baby blue and the baby pink and the white just adding on to the trans stuff. 0.99

00:19:26.000 It's a can we at least wait until people are adults before we deal with this stuff?

00:19:31.000 Or does it have to be young people?

00:19:33.000 And does it have to be their taxpayer dollars, which is why Sandra Rubio and Sandra Danes have introduced a bill banning the Pentagon from using taxpayer funds for drag performances?

00:19:44.000 If you do not have a strong stomach, do not go to brightburgh.com and look up this story because the photo that we have chosen for it is of a man who's in incredible shape and clearly is a man, judging by the content of this individual speedo, but has the face and hair of a woman.

00:20:05.000 And why is this?

00:20:06.000 Is because this is the gender-bending confusion that we're not just all having to tolerate as a society, which no one really is against tolerating it from adults, but it is that we are grooming children into this cult that's taking place. 0.89

00:20:22.000 And we're also now doing it with federal dollars, particularly with defense dollars.

00:20:29.000 And that is something that should be immediately rejected by the entire public.

00:20:34.000 And yet it's not.

00:20:35.000 And that's part and parcel of our woke moment.

00:20:38.000 New York City has added weight and height to their list of protected classes.

00:20:44.000 This is a war on science.

00:20:46.000 I will tell you how much it will benefit your life, your longevity, your health, your happiness.

00:20:55.000 And ultimately, it'll keep you on this planet longer.

00:20:57.000 And if you're a socialist or a Marxist in the audience, it will make things cheaper for the rest of the world.

00:21:04.000 If you get your health in order, particularly when it comes to obesity, we got half the country is now obese.

00:21:10.000 And for all the fad diets we've got out there, it seems to like we've never been fatter than this.

00:21:16.000 So what is the solution that woke places like New York City want to do?

00:21:20.000 They want to protect the people who are living in a healthy lifestyle, which ironically hurts them.

00:21:25.000 It doesn't help them.

00:21:26.000 That is the comfort, the stroking their hair, the petting them on the head, saying everything will be okay.

00:21:33.000 Well, it might not be okay because these are big health-related issues.

00:21:36.000 And again, if you're a Marxist, also expensive stuff too.

00:21:39.000 It's all part of this big consumer culture that we're in, where which corporations do you identify with?

00:21:45.000 What is your favorite corporation?

00:21:46.000 How much do you consume?

00:21:47.000 Why is there such a race to consume? 1.00

00:21:49.000 We're just constantly consuming everything, especially when it comes to food.

00:21:53.000 And instead of reining in the corporations by suggesting, well, maybe you shouldn't be eating so much and you should walk a little bit more.

00:22:02.000 Maybe you should not be sitting on your phone consuming content as much, maybe you should get out there and start moving your body around.

00:22:07.000 It's good for you.

00:22:08.000 Then instead, nope, let's make a protected class of entirely unhealthy people who are going to be drains in the system. 0.99

00:22:14.000 But the joke is on them because it's going to make them incredibly unhealthy.

00:22:18.000 And I don't mean to say this from a high and mighty perspective.

00:22:21.000 We all have our struggles.

00:22:23.000 I say it purely as a way to try to help people because this does not help.

00:22:27.000 Telling you you are healthy when you're not, telling you you are beautiful when you are not is not actually a help.

00:22:33.000 It's a lie.

00:22:34.000 And it's something that's very nefarious in our society.

00:22:37.000 Joe Manchin is flirting with Iowa and Iowa voters.

00:22:43.000 Now, I do think Joe Manchin could get in perhaps as a third party.

00:22:46.000 He couldn't beat Joe Biden, I don't think, in a primary on the Democrat side.

00:22:50.000 Obviously, he's not a Republican.

00:22:53.000 So I'm just trying to figure out what his thinking is exactly, trying to, and if this is a serious thing, maybe this is a time where a third party could potentially work, though we haven't had, when was the last time with a third party actually viable?

00:23:06.000 I can't even remember.

00:23:08.000 But it is one where the standard bearers for both sides of the political divide, Republican, Democrat, Biden and Trump, neither of them are particularly popular.

00:23:18.000 So this leads to think, well, maybe someone could come in and shake things up from a third party standpoint, but it also assumes the media would allow for it to happen.

00:23:27.000 We have a very compelling semi-third party candidate right now with Robert Kennedy Jr., but he's not going to get platformed by the establishment media.

00:23:36.000 The establishment media does not want to talk to him because his ideas would be a threat to Joe Biden.

00:23:42.000 And that's what's interesting because if they thought he was a threat to Trump, even though he shares a lot of viewpoints of, I think, Trump's base, then I think they would platform him, but they don't.

00:23:51.000 They think he's a threat to Biden.

00:23:52.000 And he's running as a Democrat, so that makes sense.

00:23:55.000 But what's Manchin's move here?

00:23:57.000 I don't think he's got a chance for one specific reason because he was the key deciding factor in Joe Biden's Inflation Reduction Act.

00:24:07.000 Of all the ridiculous things Biden has passed, of all the destructive things he's done, and he's done so many, it's hard to count.

00:24:14.000 The one that still is the most unfathomable is that he actually passed a gigantic bill called the Inflation Reduction Act, which increased inflation. 0.52

00:24:25.000 I have no idea why that's legal, why that's allowed.

00:24:29.000 I don't know how you would make that impeachable, but it certainly sounds like it's impeachable, at least in my brain.

00:24:37.000 And Manchin was the guy.

00:24:38.000 Manchin was the guy who got that across the finish line.

00:24:41.000 So I don't see how he actually runs a viable race, considering that that just makes him another Democrat.

00:24:48.000 Maybe every once in a while he'll vote on something that is more moderate.

00:24:53.000 But if you're going to be on that side of the legislation, I don't see how you're really that distinguishable from Joe Biden.

00:25:00.000 Maybe a little bit better, but pretty marginal.

00:25:03.000 But that said, I'll definitely invite him on my show on Sirius XM, Breitbart News Daily, and we'll try to interview him at Breitbart, try to get his take on it.

00:25:09.000 But that vote and Joe Biden smugly shaking Manchin's hand.

00:25:15.000 Didn't like that one, not at all.

00:25:16.000 And I will say, Manchin does make himself somewhat available to conservative media relative to everyone else.

00:25:23.000 So I will say, I'm keeping an eye on the 2024 race because I'm still wondering why Ron DeSantis isn't in.

00:25:32.000 He's not in yet, as far as we know.

00:25:34.000 And he, though it seems like he's certainly making moves, it is the donors want him to jump in, but it seems like he's losing momentum at a rapid rate and he's not making a lot of good decisions.

00:25:47.000 I mentioned on yesterday's show, my interview with Charlie, which is first hour, those of you who get the podcast, when I interviewed Charlie on his own show, a semi-surreal moment.

00:25:59.000 It is a point where he seems like he's got to paint or get off the ladder, for lack of a better expression, but I don't know if he's got the team behind him.

00:26:08.000 Because when Trump dominated the CNN Town Hall, the only group of people, the only faction of people who said Trump didn't dominate, and this includes all the Trump haters, was Ron DeSantis' crowd.

00:26:19.000 It looks like Tim Scott's going to get in.

00:26:21.000 This seems to be totally confirmed that Tim Scott's about to get in.

00:26:26.000 And then it looks like Mike Pence is going to get in.

00:26:28.000 Now, who does that benefit?

00:26:30.000 Who does Mike Pence, I think, is a good man and I think could be a good candidate in a different year.

00:26:35.000 Tim Scott's obviously got a super compelling narrative.

00:26:38.000 But do these people have a chance to overcome Trump, who's now polling sometimes as high as 60%?

00:26:44.000 I don't think so.

00:26:45.000 But I still tell you what they might do.

00:26:48.000 They might pull some of the anti-Trump vote away from DeSantis, who has become the default anti-Trump candidate, and make it so that that is more split.

00:27:00.000 So it could be a scenario where you could see a primary playout.

00:27:03.000 Trump might even like this.

00:27:05.000 So if Scott gets in, Haley's already in, Vivek's in.

00:27:09.000 Now a scenario where we've got Donald Trump getting a scenario where he could be basically doing like job interviews during the debate for cabinet posts.

00:27:21.000 If my theory is true, that a Pence candidacy, a Tim Scott candidacy, along with a Vivek candidacy, all that's going to do is pull people away from the never Trump faction, which is maybe half of the party, whatever it is, maybe 40%.

00:27:35.000 And that's going to be divided all the way up amongst those candidates.

00:27:39.000 I wouldn't hate it in the sense that it could really get us to flesh out some of these ideas in a relatively low stakes, high-profile environment.

00:27:48.000 But as of now, Trump's running away with it.

00:27:50.000 And the more candidates you enter, the weaker DeSantis position is.

00:27:54.000 And why he didn't declare five months ago, I know there was that rule in Florida.

00:27:57.000 I don't get it, but I think this was catastrophic politically, not a smart move.

00:28:04.000 I was over at Citizens Free Press and they just posted a pretty unbelievable link to black leaders holding a protest in Chicago against illegal aliens.

00:28:15.000 This is exactly the type of talk radio talking point I will bring up, but it is nice to hear it from the actual people who are most harmed by illegal immigration.

00:28:25.000 Let's play 152.

00:28:27.000 Politically, having over 500 people in our community would completely wipe out any interest we have.

00:28:33.000 Are you aware that there are immigrant advocates at state houses all over this country who are advocating for non-citizen voting in local elections?

00:28:44.000 That would change the mindset of what we as a black community need to thrive here in Chicago.

00:28:51.000 This is an effort to destroy our neighborhoods and silence our voices even further.

00:28:56.000 Yes, that's right.

00:28:57.000 And it does water down every time you have new people who are not a part of the community and who have not assimilated to our lifestyle.

00:29:07.000 You give them the vote and you give them certain rights and you treat them as if they're citizens when they're not citizens, they're mere residents and they're not even really residents necessarily all the time.

00:29:16.000 They're kind of visitors trying to make some money.

00:29:18.000 Then what that does, it waters down what it means to be a citizen.

00:29:21.000 And in a lot of these communities that are close-knit, they're going to feel that the most, the hardest because they're the ones who are going to be more experimenting with the non-citizen voting, et cetera.

00:29:34.000 So this is the sort of thing where you'll hear people like me say this, is that the people who get hardest hit by illegal immigration is not necessarily middle-class white guys.

00:29:42.000 A lot of the time, it is people in the black community, other people who are in lower income neighborhoods.

00:29:48.000 They might be the ones who are seeing their rents go up and seeing competition driving down their wages first.

00:29:54.000 And this is a fundamental thing.

00:29:56.000 We got 153.

00:29:58.000 Okay, let's play it.

00:29:59.000 While this crisis may constitute an emergency for the city of Chicago, it does not constitute an emergency for the South Shore community.

00:30:10.000 Incoming migrants have overwhelmed district police stations by the hundreds, but city leaders could barely eke out a word of the details about a proposed respite center at the former South Shore High School.

00:30:21.000 When it comes to the total number of people at South Shore at any given point in time, it is fluid.

00:30:27.000 We'd start with 250, 500.

00:30:30.000 How could you do that without consulting us?

00:30:33.000 I am concerned with safety in the area.

00:30:36.000 One other thing is that when people come to the United States and they are now in our communities, if you don't put them into the school system, then what are they going to do all day?

00:30:49.000 The idle hands makes for the devil's work.

00:30:52.000 So that is the, that's a formula for disaster.

00:30:56.000 So what do you do?

00:30:57.000 You have to put them in the school system.

00:30:58.000 Do you know how difficult it is to educate people in already struggling, if not failing public schools, to now have people who don't speak English, don't know any of the customs, and might not, it's hard to even assess how educated they are when they're here. 0.95

00:31:13.000 And now a bunch of those are put into your communities and families who are already struggling are already losing ground financially due to the Biden inflation.

00:31:20.000 And not to mention some of their horrific Democrat leadership in virtually every major city in the country.

00:31:25.000 All of these families are on edge.

00:31:27.000 And now you're responsible for all these new people because Alejandro Mayorkas and Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and the people who are the puppet masters in the Democrat Party believe that it is the right thing for this country to keep our border open and to broadcast it to the rest of the world, particularly the third world.

00:31:46.000 This is a disgrace.

00:31:47.000 But I will tell you, the main solution, the number one solution is people have to vote differently.

00:31:53.000 And if anyone are in any of these communities who are hitting or feeling the effects of illegal aliens the hardest, then I would recommend that you perhaps consider you change who you vote for and you don't necessarily continue to vote for the same people who will never address these issues until it's too late.

00:32:10.000 I'm fearful that this is what's happening in this country now.

00:32:13.000 And that's why the 2024 election is so big.

00:32:16.000 And that's why it's so important for all of you in the audience to do what you can to try to get involved at your local level.

00:32:21.000 I don't care what it is.

00:32:22.000 Maybe it's running for school board or your HOA even, or maybe you have designs on running for higher office.

00:32:28.000 Now is time not to be fearful.

00:32:30.000 Now is the time to stand up.

00:32:31.000 The country is at risk.

00:32:33.000 It is under grave threat.

00:32:34.000 And it is under grave threat from the people who are in charge right now.

00:32:42.000 All right, terrific stuff today.
