00:01:04.000He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.

00:01:48.000We're broadcasting live from the 48th state, Arizona, where we always do, but it is especially important to mention that today.
00:01:59.000Last evening, the internet went ablaze with breaking news from the state of Arizona.
00:02:07.000The Attorney General of Arizona is Chris Mays.
00:02:11.000She should not be the Attorney General of Arizona.
00:02:14.000Remember, she won by 280 votes with millions of votes cast.
00:02:19.000They found all these extra votes out in the Native American reservations, weren't allowed to contest signature verification, all the polling places that went down on Election Day.
00:02:29.000Abe Hamaday should be the Attorney General of Arizona.
00:02:32.000So you'd wonder if someone wins by, I don't know, 280 votes, they'd realize they don't exactly have a mandate to become a flaming Bolshevik.
00:02:40.000That if you win by 280 votes, you don't exactly have a signal from the people of Arizona that you can just go full Letitia James, throw the law out, and just go after your political enemies.
00:02:53.000When you win by 280 votes, I just want to say win.
00:02:57.000When you are put into office by 280 votes, you'd think there'd be some humility that it was super razor thin and you barely had more ballots than the other person, but no.
00:03:09.000She's acting as if she won by 2 million votes, as if Arizona is Connecticut or Arizona is New Jersey or that Arizona is California.
00:03:20.000Last evening, Chris Mays did what was foreshadowed slightly in the media.
00:03:31.000And she is following a pattern, but this is worse than any of the other states of what happened in Michigan, Nevada, Georgia, and now Arizona.
00:03:39.000The media is framing this as going after fake electors.
00:03:46.000Well, according to the Electoral Count Act, every state has to send in their electors to the National Archives.
00:03:54.000There were so many questions around the 2020 election that were pending that the great patriots of Arizona, relying on legal counsel, by the way, relying on precedents, made a decision alongside Michigan and Nevada, which is if conclusive fraud surfaces before January 6th, because all these investigations were ongoing, these court cases were ongoing.
00:04:22.000If they don't send their electors into the Electoral College to be presented in front of Mike Pence on January 6th, then there would be no possible way to potentially have the rightful winner of the state be selected on January 6th.
00:04:38.000They were doing this because many people, including Democrats, said that electoral votes had to be cast on December 14th.
00:04:50.000So 11 patriots in Arizona, one of whom you know quite well, who is the chief operating officer and longtime friend of me and of Turning Point USA, Tyler Boyer, a patriot, RNC committeeman, running the largest ballot chasing operation and the largest GO TV effort in the country.
00:05:20.000In fact, Tyler Boyer is right here on the top of the indictment.
00:05:25.000Kelly Ward, Tyler Boyer, Nancy Cottle, Jake Kaufman, Anthony Kern.
00:05:51.000They signed a piece of paper that potentially could have been used to select electors.
00:06:00.000In fact, their crime is so deceptive, they tweeted it out and sent out a press release.
00:06:06.000She is charging them with conspiracy, fraudulent schemes and artifices, fraudulent schemes and practices, and forgery.
00:06:15.000Forgery for signing a document believing that Donald Trump won the state of Arizona.
00:06:20.000And if that is proven in the courts, we want to make sure we have a backup plan.
00:06:25.000Now, this would be super radical unless, unless there was this pesky little 1960 issue.
00:06:37.000And by the way, forgery, when you publicly announce what you are doing and why and issue a press release, it's hard to call that forgery, Chris Mays.
00:06:47.000Yeah, this is the picture of those patriots.
00:07:26.000And if they would not have sent in their electors, then there is no way, regardless of the decision of those court cases, that Trump would have received those electoral votes.
00:07:36.000They took the advice of Lawrence Lessig, a liberal Harvard professor.
00:07:41.000They took the advice of Van Jones, who wrote six weeks before that they should do this if the election was in dispute.
00:07:46.000The intelligentsia of the Democrat Party has been pushing this idea for a long time because it's not an unfounded idea.
00:07:54.000Let's go back in time to the 1960 presidential election.
00:08:04.000While Hawaii certified Richard Nixon as the winner of the state's electoral votes, Democrats said no, JFK won.
00:08:14.000Democrats, John Fitzgerald Kennedy and his team, assembled their own slate of electors and submitted their votes to the National Archives to be counted while the state worked out the contest in the courts.
00:08:26.000So two states of electors were sent in the 1960 election, Kennedy and Nixon.
00:08:33.000They were both sent to the National Archives.
00:08:40.000Now, what's so important about this is that the judge came out who ruled on this and said that if both sides would not have sent their electors, there's no way that this could have been rectified.
00:08:51.000But get this, importantly, the Democrats who sent in their electors ended up being the slate of electors that were selected.
00:08:59.000After certifying Nixon's electors, Hawaii's recount concluded that Kennedy had won the state by 115 votes.
00:09:07.000The state's governor retracted the Nixon certification and submitted a new one in favor of Kennedy.
00:09:16.000And this is a quote from a politico article.
00:09:18.000Quote, Judge Ronald Jameson agreed that the certified Kennedy electors were legitimate.
00:09:25.000But more importantly, Jameson said that if they would not have met and gathered on December 19th, 1960, as prescribed by the Electoral Count Act, that there's no way those electoral votes could have gone to JFK.
00:09:39.000Rather than suggest the Democratic electors committed fraud, the judge pointed to the meeting as a key step that preserved their ability to be counted after the recount, showing Kennedy had actually won the state.
00:09:52.000So Tyler Boyer and Kelly Ward and all of these patriots, when they met, they were looking at the 1960 precedent.
00:09:58.000They were looking at what this judge said.
00:10:00.000And they said, look, this thing could end up becoming in Trump's favor.
00:10:04.000It's 10,000 votes with 4 million votes count cast.
00:10:09.000The Arizona Trump electors were doing what they thought was a legally necessary step as part of a wider political and legal dispute.
00:10:17.000They acted in the belief that Donald Trump was the true winner of Arizona in the 2020 election.
00:10:21.000I believe he was the true winner if we had actual signature verification and robust voter registration.
00:10:38.000You're allowed to make cases in court that you lose.
00:10:41.000You're allowed to contest and petition your government.
00:10:45.000But now these folks are facing years in prison, these patriots, because they signed a piece of paper exercising their constitutional ability to petition the government.
00:10:59.000Remember as a kid, your parents and grandparents making you try all the vegetables on your plate or when they coaxed you to eat fruit instead of sweets?
00:11:06.000That's because they knew what was good for you.
00:11:08.000And it's truer today than ever before.
00:11:10.000You need to eat your fruits and veggies.
00:11:12.000There's no substitute for a healthy diet, but there is balance of nature.
00:11:15.000Their products are gluten-free and non-GMO, and they contain no added sugars or synthetics.
00:11:20.000If you're looking for something to make you feel better naturally, you should definitely try Balance of Nature today.
00:11:26.000Eat your fruits and veggies every single day with Balance of Nature.
00:11:29.000I started taking Balance of Nature the day I decided I was ready to feel better.
00:12:07.000Donald Trump up seven points in Arizona.
00:12:10.000And then a couple hours later, boom, this thing drops.
00:12:15.000They've been working on this for four years, for four years.
00:12:21.000And they just dropped this right before an election.
00:12:26.000And this one is different than all the other indictments we've seen.
00:12:29.000This is wider ranging, involving Mark Meadows, Rudy Giuliani, John Eastman, Jenna Ellis, and then the rank and file, Kelly Ward, turning points Tyler Boyer.
00:12:39.000And I'm going to do a whole thing on the Tyler Boyer wrinkle here because they're happy to go after the largest ballot chasing operation and to try to get some bruises on Turning Point USA and Turning Point Action.
00:13:10.000Well, you know, as my colleague from Massachusetts just mentioned, we absolutely have to get President Biden reelected because one of my fears is despite the fact that Republicans said they wanted to send this back to states for states to decide, I think there's a real movement in the sort of extreme elements of the Republican Party.
00:13:38.000We absolutely have to get Joe Biden reelected.
00:13:41.000Someone on our team should give her advice.
00:13:43.000If you're going to go do cable hits, like within the window of time, when you're about to indict 17 people that are involved in the Trump campaign, you probably shouldn't say that we absolutely need to get Donald Trump re-elected.
00:14:18.000Oh, the crime is following the Democrat template that was theorized, implemented in the 1960 election by Democrats, and pushed by Lawrence Lessig and Van Jones.
00:15:24.000We're obviously helping Tyler out with the legal stuff.
00:15:26.000But more important than that, the best message you can send is that they will not slow down our movement, that this will be rocket fuel.
00:15:37.000We're going to work even harder to make sure these people are displaced from power.
00:15:42.000They don't believe that they can win through traditional norms or means.
00:15:48.000They're not going to, they will not be able to win through a traditionally administered election.
00:15:52.000So they want to try to have Tyler weighed down with lawyer meetings, having to get booked like he's some sort of criminal.
00:16:01.000And let me just say this: how repulsive this is, Chris Mays.
00:16:04.000Our state is being overrun by the cartels on a daily and hourly basis.
00:16:11.000We have thousands of people pouring across the southern border into this border state of Arizona.
00:16:16.000And your priority is that the decent and good patriots that you might not like signed a document that was historically precedented, that was legally justified,
00:16:31.000so that if and when a court decision came down and decided that Donald Trump was the winner of Arizona or that ballots were in question, that there would have been an opportunity for those electoral votes to be counted as following the Electoral Vote Count Act.
00:16:47.000But you are not laying a hand on the sex trafficking, the burglary, the arson, the sleeper cells, the NGOs that have infiltrated the southern border.
00:16:59.000No, your priority is exactly what you said on television.
00:17:04.000We absolutely must re-elect Joe Biden.
00:17:09.000And that's what makes Democrats different than Republicans.
00:17:12.000They are willing in public to use their political power to hold on to political power.
00:17:20.000What if I told you that most of the notable diaper brands support abortion, even footing the bill for their employees to travel to have an abortion?
00:17:28.000It's one thing to reject your customers.
00:17:30.000It's another thing to support their termination.
00:17:33.000If you're a parent sickened by woke corporations supporting the destruction of American values and our most precious blessing, our children, then meet Every Life, America's pro-life diaper brand.
00:17:43.000Finally, a baby brand that aligns with your values and is unapologetically pro-life.
00:17:48.000Every life believes that no matter where someone is from, what they look like, planned or unplanned, every baby is a miracle worth protecting and defending.
00:17:57.000Every life offers high-performing premium diapers and wipes created with your little ones in mind.

00:18:22.000Every life is changing diapers, changing lives.
00:18:53.000Now, it's usually a straightforward process, but let's say one of the candidates questions the legitimacy of the state's count.
00:19:00.000The governor could choose not to certify the electors' votes.
00:19:04.000Or, though this is really unlikely, the state legislature could decide to contest the election and send a different count to Congress, meaning Congress could end up with no results or with competing results from the same state.
00:19:19.000Now, that's a violation of federal law.
00:19:21.000So, Congress would no longer have to honor that state's electors at all.
00:19:26.000Now, the House and the Senate can then decide which result is valid or throw out the votes from that state altogether.
00:19:33.000Now, I know you think I'm crazy, but this actually happened.
00:19:37.000No matter what happens, somebody has got to take the oath of office on January 20th.
00:19:58.000It was 1876, shortly after the Civil War.
00:20:02.000Samuel Tilden won the popular vote, but there were 19 electoral votes in dispute.
00:20:08.000Congress had to step in and broker a compromise.
00:20:11.000Rutherford Hayes was eventually named president in exchange for the end of Reconstruction and the withdrawal of federal troops from the South.
00:20:19.000Here's where things get even more interesting.
00:20:22.000If a candidate still doesn't have a majority of electoral votes by the end of this process, the 12th Amendment says the House of Representatives decides who will be president and each state delegation gets one vote.
00:22:24.000You see, when I speak to the never Trump oligarchs, which every so often I encounter them, they say, Charlie, it's just Trump is a stain on our country.
00:22:43.000It is about casting the entire movement.
00:22:46.000They want to eradicate anybody that believes in the promise of making this country great, that wants to bring this country back to excellence.
00:22:57.000And so what is Tyler Boyer doing right now?
00:22:59.000Tyler Boyer has to now, who I've known now for nine years and worked with him and built this whole, the largest organization in the conservative movement.
00:23:10.000Yesterday, Tyler Boyer was, do we have a picture of that ballot chasing training?
00:23:16.000Yesterday, Tyler Boyer was hiring ballot chasers.
00:23:21.000Yesterday, he was in the weeds of getting people onboarded, giving them the mobile technology, how to be an effective communicator to build community-based relationships.
00:23:33.000And then from on high, the Arizona Attorney General's office strikes and sends a legal tomahawk missile.
00:23:41.000No, they are directly interfering with this election, taking people that are in charge of the largest get-out-the-vote operations and trying to sideline them.
00:23:49.000It's not going to stand by every single one of these people more than ever before, Tyler, especially.
00:23:59.000This makes us want to win even more, and it should you.
00:24:03.000And this is the whole ballgame here: Bloomberg Morning Consult poll, Donald Trump up seven in Arizona, Donald Trump up five in Arizona, Wall Street Journal poll.
00:24:12.000They cannot win with persuasion, they cannot win.
00:24:17.000That right there, that's our latest ballot chasing class.
00:24:37.000This is very similar to a trend that I've noticed on campuses over the last decade of doing this work.
00:24:42.000They cannot debate us on equal and fair terms.
00:24:47.000They must use instruments of power to try and prevent us from speaking, to prevent us from participating, and to interfere with our capacity to win elections.
00:25:01.000And some people say, oh, you know, Trump's getting what he deserves.
00:25:58.000And it is the everyday individual that is now being targeted.
00:26:05.000This is a multi-pronged attack against you, against us, against our country.
00:26:10.000And dare I repeat myself: where is the one Republican attorney general in the country who is willing to invoke some deterrence, some mutually assured destruction?
00:26:24.000They're indicting regular everyday patriots for signing a piece of paper for an idea that the Democrats came up with.
00:26:32.000This is her indictment of the whole thing.
00:26:39.000The people of Arizona elected President Biden.
00:26:43.000Unwilling to accept this fact, the defendants charged by the state grand jury allegedly schemed to prevent the lawful transfer of the presidency.
00:26:53.000Whatever their reasoning was, the plot to violate the law must be answered for, and I was elected to uphold the law of this state.
00:27:02.000The scheme, had it succeeded, would have deprived Arizona's voters of their right to have their votes counted for their chosen president.
00:27:11.000It effectively would have made their right to vote meaningless.
00:28:13.000And yes, thankfully at Turning Point USA and Turning Point Action, we have a political machine that will sustain this, that will grow stronger because of this, but not everybody has that.
00:28:27.000And we're going to come out stronger because of this.
00:28:30.000But where's the opposition party sending more money to Ukraine?
00:28:36.000Jim Jordan, when are we going to start to have hearings to find out about the interstate collusion about how they are indicting alternate electors, something that is constitutionally protected?
00:28:49.000Are we just going to put up with this?
00:29:18.000So how do we want to remember this moment?
00:29:21.000This is a dark, heavy, heavy chapter in American history.
00:29:26.000The legacy that I want to leave and that you want to leave and Tyler wants to leave is that we didn't give up when they threw everything they had at us.
00:30:38.000You see, he could have mentioned anyone on this list, but it's turning point that he isolates.
00:30:43.000He knows what he's talking about because he knows that Chris Mays is trying to slow down our movement, trying to chill our speech, trying to throw sand in our gears.
00:30:54.000Let's just use Tyler Boyer as an example.
00:30:57.000Tyler Boyer is not going to be a household name to most folks, but he is the RNC committeeman from Arizona.
00:31:03.000So he is the one that at every RNC meeting, winter meeting, summer meeting, he's the one that has a vote for Arizona, picks the chair of the party, for example.
00:31:12.000He is the person who is not only one of these fake electors indicted, but also RNC committee man, but he's also the chief operating officer of Turning Point USA, which is the Charlie Kirk organization, the Trump-aligned organization that has garnered millions of dollars and has effectively taken over the Arizona Republican Party in recent years.
00:31:35.000Tyler Boyer, Charlie Kirk, they're close with the likes of Kerry Lake, Abe Homeday, who was the opponent to Chris Mays and the Attorney General's race in 2022 and was an election denier.
00:31:46.000They're gloating at finding an excuse to indict a formidable political actor.
