00:01:47.000 That is 45books.com to get your copy and you get a signed copy as well.
00:01:51.000 And it is a great segue to what I want to talk about here.
00:01:56.000 There's really not any major news right now, as far as Biden is still barely making sense and making any sentences.
00:02:05.000 Donald Trump had an amazing event in Wisconsin yesterday, a huge show of force in the state of Wisconsin, in Racine, Wisconsin.
00:02:13.000 In the middle of the day, Donald Trump can command nearly a 10,000 person audience in Racine, Wisconsin.
00:02:20.000 One of the elements of this campaign is how Donald Trump is doing significantly well with people who are less likely to vote.
00:02:29.000 This is a new phenomenon.
00:02:31.000 Typically, Democrats enjoy structural advantages when it comes to lower-propensity voters.
00:02:38.000 So what is a lower-propensity voter?
00:02:40.000 If you're someone who didn't vote in the 2022 midterms, if you're someone who didn't vote in 2020, if you're someone who didn't vote in the 2018 midterms, you are a low-propensity voter.
00:02:51.000 Typically, Republicans do well with higher propensity voters.
00:02:55.000 As we mentioned yesterday, and my email inbox looked like Hiroshima and Nagasaki after I even read the article that baby boomers are favoring Joe Biden.
00:03:04.000 They're higher propensity voters.
00:03:05.000 We're not going to talk about that today.
00:03:06.000 We did that plenty yesterday.
00:03:08.000 And hopefully, I think that baby boomers will end up hopefully going towards Trump with proper messaging and proper outreach.
00:03:13.000 But those are higher propensity voters.
00:03:15.000 A lower propensity voter is someone who is 32 years old.
00:03:18.000 They drive Uber for a living.
00:03:19.000 They live on tips, which Donald Trump says he will not tax.
00:03:24.000 They work their tail off.
00:03:25.000 They're not really in the political system.
00:03:26.000 They're certainly not college educated, but they like Donald Trump.
00:03:30.000 Finding those voters, registering them, and getting them out to vote is what this entire election is about.
00:03:38.000 If we get to record turnout and we turn this summer into low prop summer, we will be in a great place in November.
00:03:48.000 There is a term, again, you're going to hear it over and over and over again, low propensity voters.
00:03:53.000 Thanks to lockdowns, mass mail-in ballots, and the sheer insanity of Floydapalooza in 2020.
00:03:58.000 Oh, happy Juneteenth, by the way.
00:04:00.000 That's all I'm going to say about that.
00:04:03.000 2020 was the highest turnout election of the century.
00:04:06.000 While early voting and mail votes will be widespread this year, It's almost certain that turnout will fail.
00:04:13.000 And the question is, who will fall for it more?
00:04:16.000 It used to be taken as a given that Democrats were the low propensity party, the low turnout voters, immigrant communities, the young, the poor, and so on.
00:04:25.000 But 2024 and Trump's political realignment has changed the game.
00:04:29.000 Poll after poll shows a trend that was previously hard to ever grasp or imagine.
00:04:35.000 Donald Trump does worse with people who make a point in voting every election.
00:04:40.000 While polling best among those who vote sparingly or not even at all.
00:04:44.000 This is the entire election, everybody.
00:04:48.000 If you were to say what is going to determine November, it is low prop voters.
00:04:53.000 If you look at people who voted in the 2022 primary elections, representing the most committed, highest turnout elections, things seem very sunny for Joe Biden.
00:05:03.000 He leads in this group by about five points, according to recent New York Times polling.
00:05:08.000 Among those who skipped the primaries but voted in the midterm general election, Biden is up one point.
00:05:14.000 But among voters who last ballot was in 2020, Donald Trump leads by two.
00:05:19.000 And here's the unbelievable kicker.
00:05:21.000 Among those who voted in none of those elections, Trump is leading by 14 points.
00:05:28.000 This is hard to believe, and it only gets even more radical when you dive into the data.
00:05:33.000 A May Quinnipiac poll shows Donald Trump leading Biden by one point among those ages 18 to 34, when no Republican had won younger voters since 1988.
00:05:43.000 The same poll shows Donald Trump getting 47% of Hispanics and 18% of Blacks.
00:05:48.000 For comparison, Mitt Romney managed only 27% and 6% respective in those groups.
00:05:54.000 This is the most profound political swerve of our lifetime.
00:05:57.000 It is a huge opportunity, but it also is a major risk.
00:06:01.000 It's a risk because you might end up leading in the polls, but you might lose in the ballots because you might be polling people who actually are not going to end up voting.
00:06:09.000 This is why Donald Trump traditionally outperforms polling, because these people are not always in the likely voter polling survey.
00:06:19.000 If we do the work of getting those low props registered, if we do the work of getting those people onto the voting rolls, we're going to have a structural advantage.
00:06:29.000 Again, I cannot repeat this enough.
00:06:32.000 This is the most profound political swerve of our lifetime.
00:06:36.000 The American electorate now seems to lean to the right, but they're also discouraged, disengaged, and quite honestly, sometimes a little bit lazy.
00:06:44.000 Not you in this audience, but some people.
00:06:46.000 For decades, it was Democrats who built aggressive get-out-the-vote operations, but they rightly believed they'd benefit if turnout went generally higher.
00:06:56.000 Republicans, meanwhile, worried that maximizing the turnout of our core base.
00:07:00.000 Now everything has changed.
00:07:01.000 America is filled with millions of people who dislike Biden and like Trump, but who are otherwise disengaged.
00:07:08.000 They rarely or never vote, and they may not even be registered.
00:07:13.000 Shockingly, there are millions of people Who actually follow politics, listen to shows like this one, and care about the country, yet they still don't vote.
00:07:22.000 I've seen this myself countless times.
00:07:24.000 By now I've heard all the excuses.
00:07:25.000 They're just going to rig it anyway.
00:07:27.000 I moved and didn't update my registration.
00:07:29.000 Or the most honest and most infuriating of all, I just haven't gotten around to it.
00:07:33.000 My challenge to every single one of you is to make this low prop summer.
00:07:38.000 Don't waste the summer watching rallies or monitoring polls, which will be obsolete by November anyway.
00:07:44.000 Instead, we must do the work.
00:07:47.000 Whenever you have a reason to think that you are with a fellow conservative or just somebody who hates Biden, take the leap and say, are you registered?
00:07:56.000 And if they are not, help them get registered.
00:07:57.000 You'd be amazed.
00:07:59.000 Far more people than you expect aren't registered, but still respond.
00:08:02.000 To a direct nudge.
00:08:04.000 In fact, just in the next room, one of our interns, Danny, goes to The Ohio State University, went up to a rodeo to go register voters.
00:08:13.000 Talked to five people, and the first five people all went, we love Trump, we don't believe in voting because it's all rigged, it's all broken.
00:08:20.000 Five out of five.
00:08:22.000 Five people who refuse, but let's just say it's all rigged, then what is the downside of sending in your ballot?
00:08:28.000 You're making like some kind of protest vote.
00:08:30.000 You are guaranteeing Joe Biden will get more time in office.
00:08:35.000 That is not cute.
00:08:37.000 It's not interesting.
00:08:38.000 You're not making a point.
00:08:40.000 You're being a fool.
00:08:42.000 And that is why we have our new book out, 45books.com.
00:08:45.000 However, if you want to get a signed copy of this book, register 25 voters.
00:08:50.000 I will send you a copy of this book.
00:08:52.000 If you register 100 voters, We will have you on this show.
00:08:56.000 In fact, we have a guest coming from Pennsylvania in the next couple of days.
00:08:59.000 She registered and changed register.
00:09:02.000 People changing from Democrat to Republican.
00:09:03.000 I think it's like 150.
00:09:04.000 She's coming on the show.
00:09:05.000 If you register 250 voters, we will fly you out to Phoenix.
00:09:10.000 We'll have lunch with you.
00:09:11.000 We'll have you on the show.
00:09:12.000 You get a nice trip here to Phoenix.
00:09:15.000 2,500, 250.
00:09:17.000 Make this summer one of grittiness, of hustle.
00:09:21.000 And if you find a low propensity voter, get them on the early voting list.
00:09:25.000 The greatest fraud that can occur this November is not their ballot shredding.
00:09:32.000 It's not signature verification.
00:09:34.000 The greatest fraud is what if we win the debate and we have more people than them, but they refuse to vote.
00:09:44.000 It's tpaction.com slash vote.
00:09:48.000 That is tpaction.com slash vote.

00:11:02.000 And, but first I want to read this email here before I get to Mr. Carville.
00:11:07.000 And this is it.
00:11:08.000 This is Jono, by the way.
00:11:10.000 I think it's, is that right?
00:11:11.000 Jono?
00:11:12.000 I want to read, I'm going to send this person a signed book.
00:11:14.000 They qualify.
00:11:16.000 Force multiplying.
00:11:17.000 Hi, Charlie.
00:11:18.000 I registered 23 people today.
00:11:22.000 I run a stall at a farmer's market in North Georgia, battleground state, rural area, conservative.
00:11:28.000 And today we sold eggs and prod produce at Trump prices, with signs showing the difference in price since Bidenflation.
00:11:36.000 We sold out at a loss, but that's not important.
00:11:38.000 Think about it, this guy is running a stand of food at a loss to make a political statement.
00:11:44.000 This is a total patriot.
00:11:45.000 It was a great talking point and conversation starter.
00:11:47.000 We collected all contacts, and we will be running a Trump bus to take many to make sure they vote.
00:11:54.000 I have two other stallholders We'll be doing the same next week with their products.
00:11:59.000 Our aim is to register 200 voters and dedicate them to Peter Navarro and Stephen K. Bannon.
00:12:06.000 Thank you for all you do.
00:12:07.000 You are an inspiration to my children and a credit to your family.
00:12:10.000 Well, thank you.
00:12:12.000 By the way, you know, we're getting hundreds of emails of people that say they're now registering voters because we're doing this.
00:12:16.000 Now, let me finish the email.
00:12:18.000 I say, hey, come on the show.
00:12:20.000 He says, no, let me get the 200 registered voters first.
00:12:24.000 That will keep us something to aim for.
00:12:26.000 Keeping it on the radar, so on and so forth.
00:12:28.000 Thanks so much.
00:12:29.000 And we're sending him a book right now.
00:12:30.000 Jono.
00:12:32.000 I want to say something, though.
00:12:33.000 That's horrifying.
00:12:35.000 Why is that story horrifying?
00:12:37.000 Can you guys guess as I sign this book to Jono, great patriot?
00:12:40.000 You are great as I sign the book.
00:12:43.000 Why is that story horrifying?
00:12:45.000 How can you find 23 low-hanging fruit voters in Georgia that easily?
00:12:50.000 Because we have not done the work.
00:12:53.000 That's why.
00:12:55.000 The prior RNC regime that we displaced, glory be to God, got run out of the way, did none of this work.
00:13:01.000 I am terrified, everybody, that we might be ahead in the polls, but behind in the voter registration tactics and in the grassroots.
00:13:09.000 That is a wonderful story I just read, but also equally horrifying.
00:13:13.000 It shouldn't be that easy to find low propensity voters, but it is.
00:13:17.000 You see, if people were emailing me, Charlie, everyone I talked to is already registered, then I'd actually feel good.
00:13:23.000 I don't feel good the more I hear about these stories.
00:13:25.000 Oh yeah, so easy to find.
00:13:26.000 Low-hanging fruit.
00:13:27.000 There are millions of people out there that support President Trump that are not even registered to vote.
00:13:33.000 Millions.
00:13:35.000 James Carville warns about how bad Joe Biden's poll numbers are, but Joe Biden thinks that his path forward I don't think people really appreciate how bad Biden's poll numbers are.
00:13:45.000 When you look at them, it's like walking down your grandmother's neck.
00:13:48.000 And that is not me fear mongering.
00:13:50.000 That's me looking at the data.
00:13:52.000 Play cut 91.
00:13:53.000 I don't think people really appreciate how bad Biden's poll numbers are.
00:14:01.000 When you look at them, it's like walking down your grandmother's neck.
00:14:04.000 You can't unsee them, no matter how hard you try.
00:14:07.000 Oh, they're bad, but it means nothing.
00:14:09.000 Democrats might be keeping Joe Biden in the race because they're confident that their apparatus
00:14:15.000 can bring him across the finish line.
00:14:18.000 And if it wasn't for the ballot chasing effort at Turning Point Action, let me be clear, the new RNC and the Trump campaign, they're doing a great job.
00:14:24.000 They are playing catch up.
00:14:25.000 James Blair, Susie Wiles, Chris Lasavita, Stephen Chung, Laura Trump, Michael Whatley, we're working well together and they're playing catch up.
00:14:31.000 They're doing a much, much better job.
00:14:34.000 But this is a structural problem that we've inherited.
00:14:36.000 And so we have a choice.
00:14:38.000 Almost everything, almost everything in life is a choice.
00:14:41.000 How you feel is a choice.
00:14:42.000 The attitude that you adopt is a choice.
00:14:44.000 How you act is a choice.
00:14:47.000 So much in life is about the free will given to you by God.
00:14:52.000 And so it is a choice.
00:14:53.000 Do we spend the rest of June, the rest of July, and the rest of August as spectators or participants?
00:15:00.000 That's why I love this.
00:15:02.000 This Jono story, and he's getting a copy of the book.
00:15:05.000 And I want to have him come on the show.
00:15:07.000 And by the way, Bearded Viking, he says he's registering hundreds of voters.
00:15:13.000 So you think about it.
00:15:14.000 If just a couple thousand people in this audience, because not everyone's going to do it.
00:15:18.000 Not everyone is committed to actually do work.
00:15:21.000 But if a couple thousand people in this audience, let's say 1,000 people, register a couple hundred people, that is 200,000 new voters.
00:15:31.000 And what Jono is doing is in the battleground state of Georgia, that could make the entire program.
00:15:37.000 It is easy and it's fun because we gamify it.
00:15:41.000 And now with Donald Trump's new announcement that he won't tax tips, every time you go out to eat at a Denny's or IHOP or a TGI Fridays or at the local steakhouse or the local bar, engage your waiter or waitress.
00:15:54.000 Be bold enough to have that conversation.
00:15:56.000 Treat them well.
00:15:58.000 Tip them well, right?
00:15:59.000 Donald Trump will not, you know, tax tips, but also look them in the eye and say, excuse me, sir, excuse me, ma'am.
00:16:06.000 Are you planning to vote?
00:16:07.000 Oh no, I'm not registered to vote.
00:16:08.000 You know that Donald Trump won't tax your tips.
00:16:10.000 He won't send the IRS after your tips.
00:16:13.000 That is what it's going to require.

00:17:27.000 Newsmaxinvest.com, Christopher Ruddy.
00:17:30.000 Chris Ruddy. Chris, welcome to the program.
00:17:32.000 Charlie, great to be on with you again.
00:17:34.000 And thank you for the intro.
00:17:36.000 We're looking forward to seeing you.
00:17:37.000 I think you're on tonight talking about your new book, which a lot of people are getting, I hear, right wing.
00:17:43.000 I hear it's the new bestseller on Amazon already, so I'm really excited to see you on the shows.
00:17:49.000 Greg Kelly and Rob Schmidt, two nights in a row.
00:17:52.000 That's right.
00:17:53.000 Thank you for that.
00:17:53.000 And Chris, you have a big announcement about what you're doing at Newsmax.
00:17:57.000 Tell us all about it.
00:17:59.000 All of this alternative media needs to combine forces.
00:18:01.000 Tell us about it.
00:18:02.000 Well, it's not big.
00:18:04.000 It's, as President Trump says, huge.
00:18:06.000 It's huge.
00:18:07.000 We announced last week, Charlie, that we're going to go public.
00:18:11.000 Newsmax has been a private company for almost 25 years.
00:18:14.000 And, you know, we're now the fourth highest rated cable news channel just behind CNN in ratings.
00:18:20.000 We reach about 40 million Americans monthly.
00:18:24.000 President Trump has praised us as his favorite cable news channel.
00:18:28.000 And so we've had a tremendous rise.
00:18:31.000 And we felt, you know, this year that I've had so many people through the years say, can I buy shares of Newsmax?
00:18:37.000 And we thought, you know, wouldn't it be great if we had thousands of people invest in Newsmax, become partners.
00:18:44.000 So we're planning on going IPO later this year or early next year, subject to government approval.
00:18:50.000 And we have a great investment bank bringing us public.
00:18:53.000 We're doing what's known as a pre-IPO raise in preferred shares where they get a 7% dividend.
00:18:59.000 So eligible investors known as accredited investors can go online to Newsmaxinvest.com and actually sign up now if they're eligible to be a subscriber.
00:19:09.000 Certainly get information about the upcoming IPO, but they can buy shares and even buy credit card.
00:19:16.000 And we've gotten a phenomenal response.
00:19:18.000 And I think America is saying they want to have more fair media.
00:19:23.000 Yeah, and just talk about that.
00:19:25.000 Talk about how important it is, Chris.
00:19:26.000 I mean, you've been in the media business for quite some time.
00:19:28.000 The media is so unbelievably slanted.
00:19:31.000 Talk about the need to build that kind of alternative media, especially this election cycle, where the mainstream media still has so much power over our society.
00:19:40.000 Well, you're doing important work on radio, and I know you're having a tremendous impact, Charlie.
00:19:46.000 And you know, when the internet came along, I was one of the first websites, conservative sites, Newsmax.com, and we thought, wow, this is great.
00:19:54.000 We're going to start bypassing the liberal media.
00:19:56.000 We'll be as big as they are.
00:19:58.000 And then what we found is big tech closed us all down.
00:20:01.000 And that the media that proliferates online on Twitter and all these other places, mostly liberal still, it's even worse than it was.
00:20:08.000 And in fact, the left has become far more polarizing.
00:20:11.000 Fox News, which has been good for a long time, they're changing.
00:20:14.000 You know, for a long time in the past couple of years, they were banning President Trump.
00:20:17.000 They weren't carrying his rallies.
00:20:19.000 We cover almost all of them.
00:20:21.000 I think Newsmax is needed now with this presidential election more than ever.
00:20:28.000 And so we're now asking people to join with us and become part of us.
00:20:34.000 And we've had a tremendous response with people just going online to NewsmaxInvest.com.
00:20:41.000 And I think it's going to be this.
00:20:44.000 We don't need the money because we're a profitable company, but we're selling a share of Newsmax so that we can grow and be bigger, both online, on television, on podcasts and things like that.
00:20:56.000 And, you know, the more bigger we are, the more impact we can have.
00:21:00.000 And we need more alternative media, especially with the woke stuff that we're seeing.
00:21:05.000 From every media organization now in America that's not openly conservative, they're all pretty much polarized and weaponized.
00:21:14.000 Chris Ruddy, thank you so much.
00:21:16.000 Talk to you soon, and thank you.
00:21:17.000 Deeply appreciate it.
00:21:18.000 Thank you.
00:21:19.000 Thank you, Charlie.
00:21:21.000 All right, everybody, email us freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:21:23.000 I want to read one of our emails here.
00:21:26.000 This is from Vinny.
00:21:27.000 It says, Charlie, some friends of mine and I went out to some burgers at a place called Mulligan's in Jensen Beach, Florida.
00:21:34.000 One paying out bill, I put that little note for Trump and he will stop taxes on your tips.
00:21:40.000 A day or two later, I think it was, but he got the same waitress and she was there on breakfast shift as well.
00:21:45.000 Later, I repeated the same message on the bill and she came back and said, you know, you're not the first person that has written that I've gotten a lot of people saying that lately.
00:21:53.000 She's never voted a day in her life, but she's now registered to vote and will vote for Trump.
00:21:59.000 See, that's the sort of grassroots tenacity and hustle that is necessary.
00:22:04.000 I wanna play a piece of tape here.
00:22:06.000 Newt Gingrich has a great piece of commentary.
00:22:09.000 He says, 66% of the country now believes that Biden can't finish a second term.
00:22:14.000 What matters is the work that we're going to do, registering voters, chasing ballots, play cut 23.
00:22:19.000 I think 66% of the country now believes that Biden can't finish a second term.
00:22:27.000 So now you have to decide about voting for Kamala Harris, who's even weaker than Biden is, Are they going to pull Joe Biden?
00:22:35.000 I mean, I think the picture the other day in Italy, where Biden just sort of wandered
00:22:40.000 off, you know, something caught his attention.
00:22:43.000 And he's standing over there.
00:22:44.000 And finally, the prime minister of Italy, Giorgio Malone, goes over and takes him by
00:22:51.000 the arm, sort of like grandfather at the family picnic.
00:22:54.000 And she walks him back into being part of the group.
00:22:56.000 The question, are they going to pull Joe Biden?
00:22:59.000 Are they going to pull Joe Biden?
00:23:03.000 The report on Biden economics or Bidenomics is remarkable.
00:23:07.000 Thank you.
00:23:09.000 How are they going to navigate this?
00:23:12.000 27% of Americans are skipping meals because of skyrocketing food costs.
00:23:17.000 CNBC, the actual consumer price index has reached new all-time highs as inflation remains far higher than the Fed's target rate.
00:23:24.000 Let's play cut 81 on headline non-seasonally adjusted the actual index it moved up to
00:23:30.000 314.069 a new all-time high if we look at the core index Which is seasonally adjusted that moved to 318.14
00:23:43.000 Guess what?
00:23:44.000 A new all-time high.
00:23:45.000 Those indices have never been higher and they underscore the angst that the population has.
00:23:51.000 Because no matter how small the month-over-changes get, the cumulative effect is substantial.
00:23:58.000 And that's what these indices continue to show us on a month-over-month basis.
00:24:03.000 The economy is crushing everybody.
00:24:06.000 And it's going to be up to us of whether we can find those low-propensity voters.
00:24:11.000 People say, Charlie, what is the voter registration app?
00:24:13.000 It is tpaction.com slash vote to be able to register voters.
00:24:17.000 It's a portal that works in all 50 states.
00:24:20.000 That is tpaction.com slash vote.
00:24:24.000 The emails we're receiving are quite remarkable.
00:24:27.000 And they're saying, wait, Charlie, I can register people to vote.
00:24:30.000 Yes, you can go out and register new people onto the voter rolls and to chase ballots.
00:24:37.000 There is a serious issue in front of us, which is If we are not able to find the people that should be voting for us, then Biden might ultimately be successful, and that's not me fear-mongering.
00:24:53.000 Let's put 26 back up.
00:24:54.000 This was just earlier this week.
00:24:56.000 This is one of our ballot-chasing classes out in Wisconsin that will be registering voters, getting people out to vote, especially low-prop voters.
00:25:05.000 Every single one of us has the agency to make a significant difference.
00:25:10.000 We have the ability.
00:25:11.000 To get into the grassroots.
00:25:13.000 I sat down with Laura Trump at the People's Convention this last week, and we talked about this.
00:25:19.000 And the top priorities are to get out the vote and to protect the ballot.
00:25:22.000 Play cut four.
00:25:24.000 Our top priorities at the RNC, we have two priorities.
00:25:28.000 Get out the vote and protect the ballot.
00:25:31.000 Charlie, let's face it, if we don't have free, fair, and transparent elections, nothing else matters.
00:25:36.000 And that is our goal at the RNC.
00:25:38.000 And by the way, every single person in this country, regardless of how you vote, should want free and fair elections.
00:25:45.000 We are also sending a loud and clear message out there to anyone who thinks about cheating in an election.
00:25:51.000 If you cheat in an election, we will find you, we will track you down, and we will prosecute you to the full extent of the law.
00:25:58.000 And Trump is gaining in every category that Democrats used to enjoy.
00:26:03.000 This is an amazing piece of tape here.
00:26:06.000 It's CNN, where they say, I am speechless.
00:26:10.000 I am speechless with how well Donald Trump is doing with black voters.
00:26:13.000 I am speechless.
00:26:15.000 With how well?
00:26:16.000 That Donald Trump is doing low prop voters.
00:26:19.000 Play cut 75.
00:26:19.000 All right, so this is black voters, Biden versus Trump margin.
00:26:23.000 Look at black voters age 50 and older.
00:26:26.000 And you'll see, look, Joe Biden was leading amongst this group at this point by 83 points back in 2020.
00:26:30.000 Now it's 74 points.
00:26:33.000 So yeah, a slight decline in that margin, but nothing out of this world.
00:26:37.000 Look at black voters under the age of 50.
00:26:40.000 Holy cow, folks.
00:26:41.000 Holy cow.
00:26:41.000 Look at this.
00:26:42.000 Joe Biden was up by 80 points among this group back at this point in 2020.
00:26:46.000 Look at where that margin has careened down towards.
00:26:49.000 It's now just, get this, 37 points.
00:26:53.000 Speechless.
00:26:55.000 I am speechless about how it is a historic performance, potentially.
00:26:59.000 This is matrix-shaking data.
00:27:02.000 Seismic data.
00:27:04.000 The populist revolution is unfolding.
00:27:07.000 And it involves all of us.
00:27:09.000 Let me just go through the gamification again.
00:27:13.000 If you register 25 new voters, you get a signed copy of my new book, Right Wing Revolution.
00:27:19.000 If you register 100 new voters, you get an invitation to be on our show right here and tell your story.
00:27:25.000 250 voters get flown to Phoenix out for a dinner.
00:27:29.000 It might be lunch.
00:27:31.000 Dinner's tough with the family.
00:27:32.000 But how about a meal?
00:27:33.000 Let's change that.
00:27:34.000 Get flown to Phoenix for a meal.
00:27:36.000 So I don't want to spend too much time on this story.
00:27:38.000 I really don't because I don't know the truth of the extent of it.
00:27:40.000 That's it right there, 2,500, 250.
00:27:43.000 This is the type of grittiness that is necessary.
00:27:46.000 And by the way, our show will pay for it, just to be clear.
00:27:48.000 Pay for the flight out here, we'll put you up in a hotel.
00:27:51.000 Our show will pay for it.
00:27:52.000 So I don't wanna spend too much time on this story.
00:27:57.000 I really don't, because I don't know the truth of the extent of it.
00:28:00.000 But I was attacked and I was called an anti-Semite, and I am resolutely pro-Israel for the record.
00:28:05.000 I love Israel.
00:28:06.000 I want them to win and finish the war.
00:28:08.000 But I was smeared and slandered by many people as being called an anti-Semite and conspiracy theorist for what is now reported in the Jerusalem Post.
00:28:15.000 The IDF knew of Hamas's plan to kidnap 250 before the October 7th attack.
00:28:21.000 The IDF had precise information about Hamas intentions, but due to prevailing conceptions in the security establishment, possibly negligence by officials, the warning signs were not acted on.
00:28:30.000 I went on the Patrick Bet-David podcast.
00:28:32.000 In fact, we can get that tape, Ryan.
00:28:33.000 Can we get that tape, Ryan?
00:28:35.000 Where I went on the Patrick Bet David podcast back in October, and I did not know all the information.
00:28:41.000 And I have been in Israel's corner and remained the entire time.
00:28:44.000 And it said, I do not believe what we are being told.
00:28:46.000 And I believe that they might've had a heads up.
00:28:48.000 Was there a stand down order?
00:28:50.000 and I was attacked by every possible direction. But now, this according to Jerusalem Post,
00:28:54.000 a newly surfaced document has revealed the IDF and intelligence systems have detailed the knowledge
00:29:00.000 of Hamas' plan to raid Israel and kidnap before the October 7th massacre. The document was
00:29:05.000 distributed a couple weeks prior and they knew that an attack was coming. Again, I don't want
00:29:11.000 to spend too much time on this and it's suspicious timing now that this story is coming out right as
00:29:15.000 Israel is about to win the war and they should win the war because we stand with Israel. But I'm
00:29:18.000 I'm doing this for my own sake to clear my name because I was so viciously attacked.
00:29:22.000 I was smeared and slandered.
00:29:24.000 For a month, I was called an anti-Semite.
00:29:27.000 And it's not an exaggeration.
00:29:28.000 Washington Times, I could go through all the different publications that publish that nonsense.
00:29:34.000 There was a document titled, Detailed End-to-End Raid Training, was distributed on September 19, 2023, and described in detail the series of exercises conducted by Hamas elite units.
00:29:45.000 These exercises included raiding military posts and kibbutzim, collective communities in Israel, kidnapping soldiers and civilians, and maintaining the hostages once they were in the Gaza Strip.
00:29:56.000 The report by Kan News stated, quote, security sources told Kan News that the document was known to intelligence leadership, at least in the Gaza Division.
00:30:06.000 The Jerusalem Post reports that warning signs of the October 7th attack were not acted on.
00:30:11.000 The IDF had precise information about Hamas's intentions, but due to prevailing conceptions within the security establishment and possible negligence by security officials, the warning signs were not acted upon.
00:30:21.000 The report further detailed that Israeli intelligence officials monitored the exercises and documented the steps Hamas planned to take after breaching Israeli territory and taking over military posts.
00:30:32.000 The expected number of hostages, according to the document, was between 200 and 250 people.
00:30:37.000 Quote, Israeli intelligence officials who monitored the exercise detailed in the document all the steps that were taken.
00:30:43.000 The expected number of hostages is 250 people.
00:30:45.000 So then the General Staff Investigation Team is expected to present initial findings from the failure to the Chief of Staff in the coming weeks as the country seeks to understand how a lapse in security could occur despite having detailed advanced knowledge of the enemy's plans.
00:30:58.000 So, the Israeli government knew that the attack was going to happen.
00:31:01.000 That is now what Jerusalem Post is saying.
00:31:04.000 The IDF is very, very close to victory.
00:31:06.000 So, this timing of this story is quite interesting, probably from the liberal arm.
00:31:11.000 So, part of the government knew.
00:31:12.000 The question is, was Bibi Netanyahu briefed on this?
00:31:15.000 I don't know.
00:31:16.000 I have no idea.
00:31:17.000 But it is something.
00:31:19.000 It's really quite interesting.
00:31:21.000 This is me on the Patrick Bet-David Show.
00:31:22.000 And I say this again, I want Israel to finish the war, to win the war, all in.
00:31:28.000 But I said what I said, and what I said is true, and it is a learning lesson.
00:31:32.000 That when somebody says something that is rooted in shared experience, and he's also on your side, I was attacked by so many conservatives as being a conspiracy theorist, Alex Jones type, I don't even know what that means.
00:31:48.000 This was me on the Patrick Bet-David Show.
00:31:50.000 It was the number one most viral clip for almost three to four days straight.
00:31:53.000 Play cut 101.
00:31:55.000 How did these guys not know this was taking place?
00:31:58.000 So I've been to Israel many times.
00:31:59.000 The whole country is a fortress.
00:32:00.000 When I first heard this story, I still had the same gut instinct that I did initially.
00:32:06.000 I find this very hard to believe.
00:32:08.000 I've been to that Gaza border.
00:32:10.000 You cannot go 10 feet without running into a 19-year-old with an AR-15 or an automatic machine gun that's an IDF soldier.
00:32:17.000 The whole country is surveilled.
00:32:17.000 Right?
00:32:20.000 So that was received very poorly when I said it.
00:32:24.000 And I'm just reading from the Jerusalem Post.
00:32:25.000 This is not some sort of fringe thing.
00:32:27.000 Again, they are liberal, so they're doing this to undercut the Israeli war effort.
00:32:30.000 And again, I just call balls and strikes.
00:32:32.000 This is the Socratic method.
00:32:33.000 We want to get towards the truth.
00:32:35.000 By the way, since I love Israel, I want to get closer to the truth.
00:32:39.000 But it's very, very logical to have an inquiry.
00:32:42.000 We don't know for a fact that there was a stand down order.
00:32:44.000 We don't know that.
00:32:46.000 But we did say that the country was a fortress.
00:32:49.000 And I cannot repeat enough how attacked I was.
00:32:54.000 I want to say this again.
00:32:56.000 This is the Jerusalem Post that they wrote here.
00:33:00.000 Quote, The country seeks to understand how such a lapse in security could occur despite having detailed advanced knowledge of the enemy's plans.
00:33:08.000 This was not a surprise attack.
00:33:11.000 It wasn't.
00:33:12.000 That's what the Jerusalem Post is contending here, is that the parts of the Israeli government knew that this was going to happen.
00:33:20.000 I don't know who, I certainly don't know why, and I don't want to speculate as to why.
00:33:25.000 But October 7th has changed the Middle East permanently.
00:33:29.000 It's changing parts of our country.
00:33:31.000 This is very important that we find out what the heck happened leading up to.
00:33:36.000 Who knew that this was going to happen?
00:33:39.000 Why wasn't this shared?
00:33:41.000 We need resignations at a minimum and maybe people go to jail for allowing this to happen.
00:33:47.000 And maybe does this go all the way up to the top government of Israel?
00:33:51.000 I don't know.
00:33:51.000 I certainly hope not.
00:33:53.000 And I say that as somebody who is cheering for them to win the war.
00:33:57.000 We should be pro-Israel.
00:33:58.000 They are a beacon of civilization against mad man Modern day Nazis.
00:34:03.000 We want accountability and we want the truth.
00:34:06.000 And the truth, I don't know what that is, but according to reports, is this was not a sneak attack.
00:34:11.000 It was not a surprise attack.
00:34:13.000 It was something that parts, at least of the Israeli government, knew was going to happen.
00:34:17.000 The question is, did they let it happen?
00:34:21.000 We have no evidence to suggest that, but we deserve an answer.
