00:00:49.740She is saying that there was cheating, and if they can cheat, it's what they're going to do.
00:00:53.960The question is, who cheated, how did they cheat, and who should she be mad at?
00:00:59.120The truth is, many prominent Democrat personalities, I should say Democrat-aligned, not necessarily politicians,
00:01:05.580liberals are gloating over their manipulation and hoax campaign to cheat the Democrat Senate primary in Texas.
00:01:15.060Now, I am going to break down for you exactly how the Democrats cheated, violating FCC rules with a hoax campaign to lock out Jasmine Crockett.
00:01:27.880And then I'm going to explain how Jasmine Crockett is basically blaming Republicans for all of this because they can't just be honest.
00:01:35.520Jasmine Crockett knows that she can't actually come out and accuse the establishment machine, the Democratic Party, from locking her out because Democrats want to hear why Republicans are bad.
00:01:48.600And thus, my friends, I have for you this video to kick it all off.
00:01:58.880So that's my news, is that we're not going to have election results tonight, in my opinion, based upon what specifically is taking place in Dallas County.
00:02:10.640Unfortunately, this is what Republicans like to do.
00:02:19.200And so they specifically targeted Dallas County, and I think we all know why.
00:02:26.340So I want you to enjoy yourselves, but I won't be back tonight because I have no idea of when we're going to get results, and I fully anticipate it won't be until tomorrow.
00:02:45.560Thank you so very much for being here.
00:02:49.400Indeed, that's what Republicans do when she loses to a Democrat in a Democrat primary who is saying he won and deserved to win.
00:03:01.120My friends, Jasmine Crockett is claiming election meddling took place.
00:03:05.440There's more videos to play and break down the actual cheating for which prominent Democrat-aligned media are gloating that they shut out Jasmine Crockett.
00:04:49.480In fact, Republicans favored Crockett as the candidate because she's less likely to win the general.
00:04:56.060There are concerns that James Tallarico, who presents himself as a moderate Democrat Christian, could actually convince moderates to vote for him.
00:05:03.400And thus, flipping the state and taking this at its seat for the Democratic Party.
00:05:22.560I say Democrat aligned, meaning organizations, media, institutions, and people who want the Democrats to win, staged this campaign with James Tallarico, mind you, who played into it all the same.
00:05:55.340We encourage each and every one of you to remain resilient.
00:06:00.040We cannot allow this type of behavior to be rewarded because so long as they know that they can win, even if it means cheating, then they will continue to do it.
00:06:11.420So I am asking you, I am begging you to make sure that you go ahead and figure out where it is that you are supposed to vote, stand in line, wait in line.
00:06:42.600NBC News' Steve Kornacki said in his live stream earlier, even if the rest of the vote of the Dallas County came in, she would still be well short here of that margin that Tallarico has built.
00:06:52.660The next Supreme Court ruled earlier Tuesday that ballots cast after 7 p.m. Central needed to be separated from previous votes.
00:06:58.920After a lower court ordered polling locations for Democrats in Dallas County to stay open two hours longer due to voter confusion.
00:09:14.520He was supposed to be here, but we were told in no uncertain terms by our network's lawyers who called us directly that we could not have him on the broadcast.
00:09:22.500Then, then I was told in some uncertain terms that not only could I not have him on, I could not mention me not having him on.
00:09:30.140And because my network clearly doesn't want us to talk about this, let's talk about this.
00:09:34.260The Late Show published the unaired interview with Tallarico on YouTube.
00:09:38.920In the interview, Colbert and Tallarico, who was running for the Senate, discussed the FCC crackdown, including opening a probe in ABC's The View After Tallarico appeared on the show.
00:10:36.800Or is it a case where both versions of the events are technically true?
00:10:40.300The network and the host offer dueling stories of what happened to a Texas state representative's appearance due to new FCC equal time rules.
00:10:48.380Indeed, my friends, most of you are aware of the story.
00:10:50.840But those that aren't familiar, I suggest share this with people so you can understand how they cheated and why they did.
00:11:41.680It's beneficial for the Republicans if the race is going to be Cornyn or Paxton versus Jasmine Crockett.
00:11:48.720Because Crockett is abrasive, brash, far left.
00:11:52.240She's going to she's going to lose some points from that.
00:11:54.400The Democrat strategy with Tallarico is that he's a moderate Democrat, self-purported Christian, in which case it is bad for Trump that Tallarico actually wins.
00:12:10.920The argument then would be Trump was trying to prevent Tallarico from appearing on Colbert because it would benefit him.
00:12:18.340But it would spike Jasmine Crockett at the same time.
00:12:21.840In fact, there's no real incentive one way or the other.
00:12:26.480If anything, the Trump administration would want Tallarico to do the interview because it would also give equal opportunity to Jasmine Crockett, who the Republicans would probably prefer.
00:13:10.680And here's the problem I have with all of this is that I what I see with Jasmine Crockett is that she can't come out and say the Democrats cheated because her base only wants to hear why Orange Man is bad.
00:13:23.720In which case she's going to say Orange Man is bad.
00:13:41.220James Tallarico and Colbert are pushing the narrative that Donald Trump was trying to block his appearance on Colbert, which is not true.
00:13:49.580Because they wanted to create the perception that he had already won the point is this they were arguing that Donald Trump blocking Tallarico was so that it would force.
00:14:05.720Stephen Colbert to have on the Republican.
00:14:11.000The general perception when this whole thing was going down was that CBS basically said if Tallarico is on, you've got to have the Republican challenger as well.
00:14:35.020Prominent liberal personalities and the Democrat himself lied about what happened to ice out Jasmine Crockett because they want to go up against Donald Trump.
00:14:49.520So I guess if anything, the Republicans would have been protecting Jasmine Crockett if they were trying to.
00:16:06.640The Hollywood Reporter says, turns out the Colbert bump is still a thing.
00:16:09.600On Tuesday, James Tallarico won the Democratic primary for the Texas seat, beating Jasmine Crockett.
00:16:14.700Tallarico, you may remember, was at the center of a political firestorm after his interview with Stephen Colbert.
00:16:19.060On the Late Show was blocked by CBS's lawyers from airing due to the FCC's new guidance for political candidates on talk shows.
00:16:25.260In an unusual move, Colbert devoted an entire segment of his show to the issue, raising not only concerns about the overreach of the FCC, but boosting Tallarico's profile by association.
00:16:37.680Because, again, for the average run-of-the-mill dem, the perception in their mind was that Trump was trying to protect the Republican candidate.
00:16:45.240In fact, the argument makes no sense because he would have been protecting Jasmine Crockett.
00:16:52.040The fallout from the Tallarico affair then became a multi-day thing in the Late Show and elsewhere, with Colbert discussing his back-and-forth with CBS lawyers and management.
00:16:58.920In a remarkable piece of television, a clearly exasperated Colbert revealed his tension with his employer, saying,
00:17:03.500I'm not even mad, I really don't want an adversarial relationship with the network.
00:17:07.740Adding further spice to the controversy, and again, elevating Tallarico's name recognition, was Colbert's ongoing issue with CBS.
00:17:14.020With the network canceling the long-running Late Show and his run-of-the-FCC that's become more activist in the second Trump administration, blah, blah, blah.
00:17:22.800Despite being blocked from airing the Tallarico on broadcast, he wasn't, and a Hollywood reporter wrote it.
00:17:30.460CBS says it didn't kill his interview.
00:18:21.720There was a philosopher king who would be like, nope, disqualified.
00:18:26.840You do not get to stage hoaxes and manipulate the public to cheat elections.
00:18:32.440The election is supposed to be a population of people who hear the arguments and make a decision as to who they think is the better candidate.
00:18:46.600And I got to be honest, I think Tallarico is probably going to be a better politician, and I don't like the whack-a-loon far-left stuff from Jasmine Crockett.
00:19:04.140If Trump said you can't watch this, bro, you were icing out Jasmine Crockett.
00:19:08.740Not Ken Paxton or Wesley Hunt or Cornyn, for that matter.
00:19:13.120The Colbert kerfuffle was also a huge boost to Tallarico's campaign, with the Texas poll revealing that he raised more than $2.5 million in the 24 hours after his appearance.
00:19:26.000He also became something of a cause celebrae in liberal media, with a flurry of appearances on cable news, including a notable segment on Lawrence O'Donnell's MS Now show that has over a million views on YouTube.
00:19:38.680And an array of podcasts since the late show spot.
00:19:42.320Indeed, my friends, the depravity and scumbaggery.
00:20:41.120These people should not be allowed anywhere near the seats of power.
00:20:45.200Again, not saying Jasmine Crockett should either, but holy crap, am I just livid over the lies, the lies they push to trick people into giving them power.
00:20:59.200There it is, my friends, the nature of American politics.
00:21:03.220With the redistricting going on, who knows how the midterm is actually going to turn out.
00:21:06.720We're expecting at some point soon, actually, maybe even today, ruling from the Supreme Court as to whether or not this will move forward.
00:21:13.920There already have been some decisions, and people are already losing it, but we'll see.
