00:01:30.120 out on we got some news on president trump making an announcement on that fort hood execution uh
00:01:36.400 that's going to happen a little bit of change of mind on president trump president trump also
00:01:40.040 getting a little agitated with ukraine as they continue to pull up russian energy sites
00:01:45.460 as a deal is made to export some diesel from Russia
00:01:50.660 to bring the cost down, but Ukraine continues to blow it up.
00:01:54.580 Also, a Florida commie, you're not going to believe this.
00:01:59.860 Someone who's running for the Senate says if she wins,
00:02:03.660 she wants to arrest President Trump and jail her political opponent?
00:02:07.760 Isn't that exactly what they've been accusing President Trump of doing?
00:02:11.140 Also, Netflix, woke Netflix, laying off 1,000 people.
00:02:15.460 Say it ain't so, I feel so terrible for those poor people.
00:02:21.240 Spread indoctrination, lies, all of that stuff.
00:02:25.740 I'm going to be looking for new jobs soon.
00:02:27.520 I want to begin tonight first, though, with some interesting polling data that,
00:02:32.940 I follow this girl on Twitter, you guys have probably seen her. 0.74
00:02:38.100 And she does a terrific, terrific, terrific job.
00:02:42.300 So going through analytics, going through scenarios, her name is Data Republican.
00:02:50.020 If you guys are on Twitter and you don't follow her, I highly recommend you guys do because she put out an analytic yesterday.
00:02:56.940 So she's going to go through it later this week.
00:02:58.600 But I went through it last night, and I was appalled because from all these pollsters that we continue to hear who are totally Trump deranged, totally Trump deranged, Fox News, Emerson, Echelon, Pew Research, The Economist, YouGov, there's many more who have been plagued by the Trump syndrome.
00:03:24.920 So they've been putting out their numbers and what they put out, if you're not a pollster, if you're not someone in the political know, is the numbers.
00:03:34.120 And you see the numbers as they are. And you see this is X, this is Y, the Republicans are winning, the Republicans are losing.
00:03:40.940 You don't see the numbers behind it. You don't often see the crosstabs.
00:03:44.260 You often don't see who they're polling, gender, race, which they have all those numbers, marital status, whatever, household income.
00:03:57.040 You can go through all the crosstabs and see just who they're polling and what they're overpolling.
00:04:02.340 And oftentimes, this is not a left or right thing, you'll have skewed poll numbers because you're overpolled.
00:04:08.120 And this is by default. This is usually, usually I'll say not by design, but you'll have overpolled women, you're underpolled women, you know, overpolled old people, overpolled young people, underpolled, whatever.
00:04:22.080 And you put in the algorithm and you can look at exit polling, you know, to make a, you know, the best interpretation that you could possibly make, you know, as for what's going on.
00:04:34.820 and like I said, a lot of the times you don't see what exactly they polled
00:04:44.200 and who exactly they polled, and I think a lot of it sometimes gets lost in translation.
00:04:49.380 So going back to Data Republican, she put out these crosstabs,
00:04:53.800 and that was rather interesting last night, and I was going through them,
00:04:59.280 and I found it extremely, extremely interesting.
00:05:03.220 So I want to go through them because she says these pollsters are not painting a full picture.
00:05:09.980 So she took polls from various groups, Echelon, Emerson, Fox News, Pew Research, and looked through the data analytics of some of these and broke down some of the groups that they're polling in.
00:05:28.500 So if you look there on the screen, you got her generic ballot, according to these generic polls, is nine and a half points on the Democrat.
00:05:35.800 Now, we were told yesterday by Harry Enten that the pollsters have missed by about four points.
00:05:42.580 So if you want to factor that in, you've got four points on the miss, maybe in a margin of error, could be off by four to seven points.
00:05:52.800 Could put it at a margin of 10 plus five, plus two and a half, if this is real.
00:05:57.820 So. Voters under 35, 35, what she says, the polls assume the polls put young voters about 14 percent of the electorate and give the Democrats about a D plus 31 among them.
00:06:10.420 Most polls report 18 to 29. Echelon and Fox News' alternative column use 18 to 34.
00:06:16.180 And the estimates range from Dem plus 13 to Dem plus 53.
00:06:19.840 So she took, for example, North Carolina early voting versus 2022, same day, down 9.1%, as you see there, and then used Ohio as well, 8.7%, 2024, same day, 6.3%.
00:06:39.060 Now, she says if this holds, polls may be too good for the Democrats.
00:06:43.420 The model shares down 24 percent versus the last midterm that carries through worth about Republican plus about a half to point eight on the national margin.
00:06:54.680 She then goes on to voters 65 and older. Polls put voters 65 and older, about 34 percent of the electorate likely voter polls only.
00:07:04.460 So there's different, you know, you can have likely voters. People may vote, people may not, but whatever.
00:07:09.060 extremely likely to vote, split roughly 0.99
00:07:12.260 at Dem plus two and a half, and she used 0.86
00:07:14.520 Fox News and a few other
00:07:16.380 polls, which shows
00:07:18.280 North Carolina up
00:07:20.420 at 66.8%
00:07:23.900 versus
00:07:24.440 59.6% in 2022
00:07:26.480 same-day voting.
00:07:28.300 This holds polls may be too good for the Democrats.
00:07:30.920 Now, the interesting thing about that
00:07:32.440 one is that
00:07:34.300 you tend to have the
00:07:36.100 older voter
00:07:37.880 go Republican, usually how it is on the Republican side. And I talk about it here often
00:07:44.920 about the Republican electorate being a little bit older, which is why we need to rally up the
00:07:48.900 young guys to take over the reins. But the interesting thing about that is you continue
00:07:55.000 to hear some of these pollsters saying, oh, well, President Trump got a lot of the socialist vote.
00:08:01.680 They voted for President Trump because they thought he was bringing change.
00:08:04.180 And these people all are going to show out in this election, and they're going to give the two double birds to President Trump for not holding up on his end of the bargain to be this populist president.
00:08:16.720 But the voter data, early voting data shows that you're down among early voters.
00:08:24.660 These people that these pollsters are alleging are going to turn out massive numbers for President Trump.
00:08:34.040 But the polls are not showing that.
00:08:37.480 Rather interesting.
00:08:41.020 So who's lying here is that these woke right pollsters who have Trump derangement syndrome, who I think have always had Trump derangement syndrome, put more energy into attacking President Trump, the Republicans, than they ever did for the Democrats, and then just say it's under the guise of, well, we wanted President Trump to do this and he's not doing it.
00:09:00.280 So now we're against him.
00:09:01.940 That makes a lot of sense. 0.96
00:09:04.040 She goes on then to look at the black vote and what the polls are assuming.
00:09:08.980 Polls put black voters at about 11% of the electorate and give Democrats a
00:09:13.080 Dem plus 63 among them.
00:09:16.020 Early voting numbers down by about 5% in North Carolina versus 2022.
00:09:24.680 And down about a percent and a half in Georgia.
00:09:30.980 Once again, if this holds, the polls may be too good for the Democrats.
00:09:36.500 The model shows shares down about 17% versus the last midterm election.
00:09:41.400 That carries through Republican plus 0.6 to a 1.2 national margin.
00:09:49.720 And lastly, she looks at registered Republicans versus Democrat early votings.
00:09:54.740 And she says that most polls assume the electorate split close evenly by party self-ID ranges from Dem plus three to Dem plus two.
00:10:04.360 They're about even, depending on the pollsters, Marist, Emerson, Quinnipiac, Echelon, Republican plus five.
00:10:13.060 And weighs it to a 33 Republican to a 31 Democrat, a 2024 vote of 50 Trump to Harris, 48.
00:10:20.280 Several polls recalled 2024 vote shows Harris ahead.
00:10:24.740 which we all saw.
00:10:28.380 So, early votes now versus Dem, same day.
00:10:33.840 Republican Democrat, Dem plus 6.6 versus Dem 3.9.
00:10:40.600 Republican Dem, Republican to Dem, is Dem plus 23
00:10:45.400 versus Dem plus 32.2, 2022.
00:10:51.680 Pennsylvania, another one
00:10:55.300 Republican to DEM ratio, DEM plus 44
00:10:58.140 whereas 2022, same day, it was DEM plus 50
00:11:02.200 we'll call it round up and round down, DEM plus 54
00:11:05.040 and they look at Ohio
00:11:08.980 2024, the DEM ratio
00:11:12.220 DEM plus 18.5, 18.8, call it 12
00:11:15.280 sorry, 11.8, we'll call it 12
00:11:17.960 versus Republican, 10.6
00:11:20.440 So these pollsters who are putting out these polls, in other words, put in layman's terms, are not painting the full picture of what's really going on and who's turning out to vote and what the early vote numbers are.
00:11:35.240 now as we sit here right now at 6 23 p.m on the east coast october 15th early voting is underway
00:11:46.120 in about 20 states mail-in ballots returns about three and this is all subject to change by the
00:11:51.860 second of course but excuse me rough numbers mail-in ballots returns about three and a half
00:11:56.840 million early in-person
00:11:58.820 votes, about
00:12:00.080 950,000
00:12:01.560 combined total
00:12:04.900 about 4.5 million.
00:12:07.060 47 million mail-in ballots
00:12:08.800 requested.
00:12:11.240 How many of those are
00:12:12.600 legitimately
00:12:14.700 requested? I guess that's a
00:12:15.960 story for a different day. I guess we need a lot
00:12:18.780 more time to talk about that.
00:12:21.260 So we are live tonight. We're going to take
00:12:22.720 a quick break. We're coming right back. We've got so much
00:12:24.800 more to get to, so don't turn that dial.
00:12:26.680 Tap it in this chat.

00:12:28.740 If you're enjoying The Great America Show, fire up the chat with your questions.
00:12:32.080 We're getting to it all before the end of tonight's show.
00:12:34.080 We're going to go a little bit deeper into this early voting,
00:12:37.640 some more analytical data from different states and what's going on there.
00:12:41.640 Much, much more.
00:12:42.420 We're talking about James Talafrico.
00:12:44.300 Stay with us.
00:12:44.900 You don't want to miss it.
00:12:45.760 We're coming right back on The Great America Show.

00:12:48.500 We'll be right back.
00:12:54.880 Thanks, everybody, for staying with us here.
00:12:56.240 live tonight on the Great America Show, be sure to fire
00:12:58.400 up that chat, tune in, let us know
00:13:00.360 where you're tuned in from, and we're getting to all your good stuff
00:13:02.480 before the end of tonight's show,
00:13:04.440 so don't turn that dial and stay with us.
00:13:06.460 Lock in. We've got a lot more
00:13:08.220 to go through. So, like I said, about
00:13:10.220 20 states, as of
00:13:12.320 today, are underway with voting.
00:13:14.520 The last week of September, you've got
00:13:16.120 with early voting,
00:13:18.340 and
00:13:18.540 in-person early voting as well. Virginia,
00:13:22.220 Minnesota, South Dakota, Vermont, Mississippi,
00:13:24.260 and Illinois, all on the dates from
00:13:26.120 It's about September 18th to the 24th.
00:13:28.460 And then you push into the first week of October and you add on Maine, California, Nebraska, Indiana, New Mexico, Ohio, Arizona, Georgia, Idaho, Iowa, Kansas, Rhode Island, Tennessee, and North Carolina kicked off today with their early voting.
00:13:46.980 So gave you a little bit of a breakdown on those numbers that we know so far.
00:13:49.860 Some of the numbers thus far that we know out of the states, about six hundred and twenty thousand mail in votes from Florida, about five hundred and fifteen thousand out of California reported ballots by mail.
00:14:03.880 That is you've got Illinois, about three hundred thousand Maryland, about one hundred sixty thousand Idaho, about forty five thousand Maine, about forty five thousand.
00:14:14.840 And then you got about 32,000, 33,000, the latest count out of North Carolina.
00:14:20.280 So interesting stuff.
00:14:25.640 Interesting stuff.
00:14:28.780 By the way, those numbers are about 80-20 mail-in to in-person ballots.
00:14:37.860 And we usually know how those numbers come in.
00:14:41.400 Now, the interesting thing, California, from 2022 midterms, you've got an uptick about 4% from 2022 midterms.
00:14:53.300 You're up about 18% in Illinois.
00:14:56.480 You're about 18% in Virginia.
00:15:00.700 You're about 6% in Vermont.
00:15:04.280 And you've got about a 70% decrease in South Dakota.
00:15:07.160 Now, what is the common denominator? 0.97
00:15:11.400 And all of those states with those massive upticks, I guess you guys can figure it out enough to tell you, they're all Marxist damn run. 0.96
00:15:20.480 So are they doing the mail-in fraud scam again? 0.51
00:15:26.260 Well, some new numbers that we got out today, the Wisconsin State Elections Director is reporting a 30% drop in absentee ballot requests from the November 3rd, 2026 election this week compared to the 2022 midterm elections.
00:15:40.860 Now, the 2022 Wisconsin midterm elections for governor was decided by about 90,000 votes out of a total of about two and a half million votes that were cast by registered voter turnout of 77 percent.
00:15:53.440 Now a closer look at the Wisconsin state election director's difference, the absentee ballots from 26 to 22, about 494,000 absentee ballots were requested and sent in 2022, including online requests, indefinitely confined requests and in-person requests at the clerk's office.
00:16:13.100 Total about 348,000 absentee ballots have been requested through October 12th of this year.
00:16:19.160 So you got a little bit of a drop-off there, about 100 and change, 140-something thousand, 144 or 45,000, which is that 30% drop-off.
00:16:35.300 So it's interesting because Wisconsin's election law is very, very liberal and generous for those people who request an absentee ballot.
00:16:42.640 I mean, you literally, you ask for one, you get one.
00:16:44.840 so are we seeing a little bit of a crackdown in wisconsin are we seeing a little bit of a
00:16:54.480 shake-up over there are they getting their act together as president trump and the administration
00:17:00.080 the doj ruffled enough feathers to try to stop the steal before it gets started i don't know but
00:17:08.440 But when you got a 30 percent drop off in early voting out of Democrat Wisconsin, I think it's something that's worth taking a look at.
00:17:17.840 And of course, he's these woke pollsters won't talk about it because they're too busy selling the narrative of what it is.
00:17:23.980 And I tell everybody, remember. Keep track, keep notice of all the polling and tweets and all this stuff these people are putting out.
00:17:32.520 so that after Election Day, in just a few weeks now,
00:17:40.500 two and a half weeks, something like that,
00:17:43.240 we can go back and look, and they can admit where they were.
00:17:49.920 And they'll always try to sell it a certain way.
00:17:52.260 They'll tell you it looked like it was this way, and we missed this way.
00:17:55.080 And it's all lies.
00:17:57.080 and they get away with it because nobody
00:18:00.260 covers it
00:18:01.300 unless you're tuned into the Great America Show and a few other
00:18:04.300 good podcasts of people
00:18:06.480 who tell the truth
00:18:07.360 and they'll continue
00:18:10.380 to get business
00:18:11.200 and the show goes on
00:18:14.360 it's a sad sad sad
00:18:18.140 sad situation
00:18:20.260 turning out to President Trump
00:18:22.560 announcing this afternoon that the scheduled
00:18:24.620 firing squad and the execution
00:18:26.600 of the Ford Hood Muslim shooter Nadal Hassan
00:18:28.840 will now not be
00:18:30.480 live streamed. The Pentagon had previously
00:18:32.660 planned to let the public watch.
00:18:34.920 The immediate families of the victims will
00:18:36.460 be allowed to attend and watch in person
00:18:38.420 if they ever choose.
00:18:40.240 President Trump announcing on Truth Social this afternoon
00:18:42.480 that he's decided
00:18:44.480 against, I guess, maybe after some
00:18:46.360 backlash.
00:18:48.140 I'm not sure what the backlash is. 1.00
00:18:51.200 Absolute scumbag 1.00
00:18:52.560 deserves 1.00
00:18:54.560 to be rottening hell. 1.00
00:18:56.600 and I think a firing squad gives them the easy way out. 0.98
00:19:01.680 Just my take.
00:19:02.880 We're live tonight, folks, with The Great America Show,
00:19:04.640 so be sure to tap into that chat.
00:19:06.120 Let us know where you're tuned in from.
00:19:07.700 We're getting to your comments, your questions, and concerns
00:19:09.280 on the other side of this quick, short break.
00:19:12.420 We're also going to talk a little bit about James Talafrico
00:19:14.660 and his performance last night, or I guess you can say lack thereof.
00:19:18.880 Stay with us.
00:19:19.640 Tap in on that chat.
00:19:20.400 We're coming right back.
00:19:26.600 Thanks, everybody, for staying with us here live tonight on The Great America Show.
00:19:30.440 Netflix is set to lay off 1,000 workers announcing this afternoon,
00:19:34.840 representing about 6% of its global staff,
00:19:37.540 making the streaming platform the largest cutback since 2022.
00:19:41.840 Staff members were told the layoffs would affect the tech, the legal,
00:19:45.220 the product, and human resources department, according to a company memo
00:19:48.520 that was obtained by the New York Post.
00:19:50.360 The memo also reported on Deadline was authored by the co-CEO,
00:19:54.780 Greg Peters and Ted Sanitos. Woke. Everything woke turns to crap, and they haven't figured it
00:20:05.080 out yet. They'll soon start to figure it out. So, Florida Democrat, U.S. Senate candidate Angie 0.99
00:20:12.140 Nixon, now saying that she will lock up her political opponent if she's elected to the U.S. 0.93
00:20:17.580 Senate? Well, the modern-day Democrats don't care about the laws and care about justice, 1.00
00:20:22.240 They don't care about true justice in the American way.
00:20:24.640 They want to destroy you, toss you in prison. 0.96
00:20:27.680 But also very, very hypocritical, because this is exactly what they're accusing President Trump of doing. 0.99
00:20:34.560 I want her locked up and punished in jail for what she has done. 0.88
00:20:39.800 And so, you know, we are going to continue to stump on this campaign trail all across the state from the panhandle to the Keys.
00:20:47.060 And we're looking forward to them calling me senator on November 3rd.
00:20:50.060 You want your Republican opponent locked up? 0.95
00:20:52.240 you know she yeah basically 1.00
00:20:56.340 that's of course senator ashley moody she gonna be locked up according to angie nixon
00:21:05.940 these people say this stuff with a straight face and i don't know how they do it it truly 1.00
00:21:13.400 boggles my mind that these people are this absurdly stupid and they'll say that out of 1.00
00:21:20.820 one side of their mouth and out the other side they'll say president trump or she would say 1.00
00:21:26.380 president trump is targeting his political opponents like are we serious here guys
00:21:33.900 so james talafrico who's was missing prior to last night for two weeks he reckons he got the
00:21:42.000 tummy ache and he had a flu some reports out on twitter that um he may have been going through
00:21:48.660 a mental health crisis. It's a possibility. But according to his campaign, he had a tummy ache
00:21:54.900 and had to take two weeks off to stay in bed. By the way, that's got to be the longest flu I've
00:21:59.080 ever heard of. But that's what he says. Anyway, he tried to play moderate last night at the CNN
00:22:06.620 town hall and got absolutely annihilated in this little sit down thing they did called
00:22:12.680 prove me wrong, by the way, they plagiarized, about abortion, among many other issues.
00:22:21.300 I'm Jody Hunt. Nice to meet you. I'm from Burleson, Texas. I'm also an eighth generation
00:22:26.400 Texan. My family's been here since the revolution. We're very happy, very good Texans. I'm a wife and
00:22:34.220 mom of three. I'm also an educator. Back in 2011, I was teaching in San Antonio.
00:22:39.400 Wow, we have a lot in common.
00:22:41.060 Yeah, I had a Catholic private school, Antonian College Prep, so shout out to all those students, the former students there.
00:22:46.060 That's wonderful.
00:22:46.360 I'm now a university professor.
00:22:48.500 My topic is abortion.
00:22:50.180 Yeah.
00:22:50.580 I am a Catholic, an Orthodox Catholic.
00:22:54.360 As you know, Catholics, we tend, and I myself included, to be a one-issue voter.
00:22:59.380 And abortion is a large part of that, and the dignity of human person and natural law.
00:23:03.660 I'm a theologian, and so we have something in common.
00:23:07.320 And because of that, we believe that at the moment of conception, there is a human life to protect. 0.89
00:23:14.240 And so we struggle with the idea that it's the woman's right to choose because it takes two people to create that being. 0.76
00:23:21.580 And the woman is the bearer of that child into the world. 0.82
00:23:24.840 And through co-creation, that child has been created. 0.89
00:23:27.880 So as people, we are to protect that life at all costs.
00:23:31.420 And so what makes it difficult for us to vote Democrat is that we have this idea that if you cannot provide policies or support policies that protect the most innocent among us, who is the unborn child, how can we trust that you're going to provide policies to protect the rest of Texans and to promote dignity and human life in that?
00:23:54.140 So I challenge you on that and to provide some feedback on, like, how would you convince me as a Catholic voter that I can trust you that you would protect the most innocent among us?
00:24:03.420 I'm so, so grateful that you brought that question.
00:24:07.360 No, you're not.
00:24:07.780 I think there's a lot of folks in Texas, a lot of Catholics who are asking themselves the same question.
00:24:11.860 So thank you for doing it.
00:24:12.740 I know it's not easy to do it on live television, but I'm really, really grateful you did.
00:24:16.540 You know, some of my spiritual heroes like Pope Francis and Pope Leo are pro-life and they are consistently pro-life.
00:24:27.360 They're not just against abortion, but they are against poverty, against climate change, against war.
00:24:36.060 And so I can respect anyone like you who is consistently pro-life.
00:24:41.140 And I actually think there's common ground we can find here.
00:24:44.520 We may come to different moral and ethical conclusions when it comes to the question of should abortion be legal or not.
00:24:51.940 It sounds like you and I do come to a different conclusion.
00:24:54.060 That's OK.
00:24:55.360 We're both Christians and and the Bible is silent on the issue of abortion.
00:25:00.440 It means you and I both have to look at.
00:25:03.020 The Bible is silent on the issue of abortion.
00:25:06.980 By the way, how do you sit there and call yourself a Christian and support abortion?
00:25:11.100 That was one thing that always boggled my mind.
00:25:13.080 You got Joe Biden going to church, and these people going to church.
00:25:15.940 I don't think Obama was Christian or Catholic.
00:25:20.440 I think he was of a different belief, different religion, totally.
00:25:27.060 But you got Biden who goes to church.
00:25:29.220 Nancy Pelosi goes to church.
00:25:31.640 And these people literally support abortion.
00:25:36.060 But the good news is they believe in climate change.
00:25:40.940 at different scriptures to try to come to a conclusion. But what I think we can do is actually
00:25:46.960 come together on reducing the number of unplanned pregnancies and the number of abortions.
00:25:53.800 Because if we treat this issue as a public health problem and not a culture war problem,
00:26:00.340 then we can actually make progress together. And this is what drives me crazy about this debate
00:26:05.460 is we use it to kind of beat each other over the head, right? We treat it as a philosophical debate
00:26:11.820 or a theological debate when actually it's a public policy problem because I also want to see
00:26:18.020 fewer unplanned or unwanted pregnancies. I want to see fewer abortions. And so you and I actually
00:26:24.420 have the same goal. We may have different moral conclusions when it comes to this particular
00:26:30.500 ethical question, but we actually have the same public policy goal. And so if we can do that,
00:26:37.240 if we can join together to make sure that we have scientifically valid sex education,
00:26:42.860 age-appropriate sex education, if we can make sure that folks who need contraception can get
00:26:47.860 it, if we can make sure that everyone has health care, something the Catholic Church has led on,
00:26:51.880 then we know that that reduces the number of abortions. Because you can look at the research
00:26:57.000 and you see that certain policy levers, like sex education, like health care,
00:27:02.620 can actually reduce the number of abortions.
00:27:04.580 And that's what I'm willing to work with you on.
00:27:06.320 And I just want to add that the Bible is not silent on abortion.
00:27:09.740 There is the Ten Commandments.
00:27:10.800 Thank you.
00:27:11.200 And as Catholics, we take great insults, I guess, sometimes when it's spouted that way.
00:27:18.240 But I also want to add, I know I'm up on time,
00:27:20.380 but contraception, an age-appropriate thing also when it comes to Catholic vote,
00:27:25.060 is a very trying thing for us
00:27:27.180 because we believe the parents
00:27:28.160 are the primary educator of our children.
00:27:31.440 And so one of the things
00:27:32.240 that we really struggle with
00:27:33.200 is having any government interference
00:27:34.920 with how we educate our children.
00:27:36.960 So I know we're going to agree
00:27:37.940 to disagree on that,
00:27:39.440 but I do appreciate your comments
00:27:41.520 on tending to the life
00:27:43.000 from the womb to the tomb.
00:27:44.500 And I think that's one common ground
00:27:45.980 we can come to.
00:27:46.800 And I think, you know,
00:27:47.860 you know that I'm an educator like you.
00:27:50.120 Sure.
00:27:50.500 And if I believed
00:27:51.420 that abortion was murder, 0.66
00:27:54.140 that it violated the Ten Commandments, then I wouldn't support it. 0.99
00:27:57.460 And so it's okay that you and I come to different conclusions about that.
00:28:01.240 But I think we could also look at the current abortion ban in Texas,
00:28:05.540 which bans abortion in all cases, including in cases of rape and incest,
00:28:10.000 including when the life of the mother is in danger.
00:28:12.560 We currently see in Texas women dying in emergency room parking lots from sepsis 0.58
00:28:17.740 because their doctors are too afraid to provide life-saving care. 0.62
00:28:21.300 We talk about Texas women, but it's also Texas girls. 1.00
00:28:24.140 We see girls as young as 10 years old who need that abortion care and they can't get it in Texas.
00:28:30.800 And so if we are authentically pro-life, I think we should be disturbed by the outcomes of this extreme abortion ban.
00:28:37.480 That's why that's why that's why that's why I think you and I actually agree more than we think we do.
00:28:46.760 Again, the theological debate is interesting and you and I should, you know, grab coffee.
00:28:50.900 yeah we should do a podcast and i would love to get into that but as a policy maker i'm always like
00:28:56.100 how do we solve the problem right how do we get better outcomes and that's what you want too
00:29:00.340 that's what that's what every pro-life person wants and we should join together to do it 0.99
00:29:06.660 i mean that guy is just a total pathological liar 1.00
00:29:12.020 and he got called out there i mean what a total freaking fool 1.00
00:29:16.740 boggles my mind that there's going to be anybody in texas who goes out and vote for this guy 0.99
00:29:24.980 and if you do you get what you deserve and it sucks that uh all the other people have to
00:29:31.420 you know bear the brunt of it but i'm used to it being here in new york uh with our failed 0.95
00:29:38.500 scummy really scummy leaders good afternoon patriots from beautiful san diego our buddy gw
00:29:45.740 always tuned in Chris Holmes 0.96
00:29:48.200 tuned in from Summers Point
00:29:50.480 New Jersey another
00:29:51.820 Great America show loyal Ali Khan
00:29:54.040 a new Great America show loyalist is here with us
00:29:56.320 each and every night all I want for Christmas 0.53
00:29:58.480 is people to vote red
00:29:59.900 on all MAGA candidates
00:30:01.580 am I asking for too much
00:30:03.760 I wish I could answer
00:30:09.180 I'd like to say no
00:30:11.680 like to say no
00:30:14.500 oh man fall girl is in the house jim sealer good evening y'all from peaceful swamps of
00:30:23.320 east texas a new jxr y in the house all i've been seeing on social media is the threat
00:30:32.420 of the mother of all bombs and they keep saying oh we're gonna do this we're gonna do it mother
00:30:37.720 of all bombs i think they should not say and go ahead and do it they'll let us know but putting
00:30:43.120 this out there on social media it's giving our enemies the chance to rethink things and hide
00:30:47.260 mostly behind uh things what say you um the problem chris is that nobody really knows what's
00:30:56.720 true because there's so many liars and there's so many leakers and and and bs
00:31:02.900 so i don't know really what i saw that report too and i didn't know what to make of it um
00:31:09.620 I don't know if it's true, but I can't imagine that being true that, um, they did because I think president Trump would have probably done it already.
00:31:23.700 Um, but I think he's, uh, I think he's probably in the best place right now and the country's in the best place right now that we've been in since the, um, war started.
00:31:33.720 um i think he's has them crippled completely financially um he's targeted their oil routes
00:31:44.800 now they're still of course i'm not going to sit here and tell you they're not getting any oil
00:31:48.400 through because they absolutely are um but he's absolutely targeted their oil routes they're not
00:31:53.440 pushing through as much oil as they have been in the past um their inflation is absolutely through
00:31:59.300 the roof so i think iran's probably in a place right now that's kind of hard to self-sustain
00:32:06.360 and um i think it probably comes to an end sooner than later maybe before their midterms or shortly 0.90
00:32:12.940 thereafter my opinion jxroy says vote red the firing squad for that muslim fort hood shooter
00:32:22.000 will not be publicly televised so they should instead strap the edict to a bunker buster and 0.52
00:32:27.160 airdropping tyrant on live tv i don't know i kind of have mixed feelings on that fall girl says i'm
00:32:33.020 all for that um not mixed feelings for the uh the bunker buster um i think that'd be an awesome idea
00:32:39.980 but um yeah i don't know uh if you could call it torture i don't know i
00:32:49.680 these people deserve to die the slowest painful uh most antagonizing 0.80
00:32:58.540 um death possible for the pain they inflicted on families 0.99
00:33:05.040 the loved ones who don't go home at night who will never go home at night whose kids
00:33:11.980 will grow up without them whose mothers and fathers will never see them again
00:33:16.520 And so, yes, I do think, is it make me a good Christian to say that?
00:33:22.880 Probably not.
00:33:23.820 But at the other end of it, I am a human being.
00:33:28.120 And I don't think these people should get the coward's way out.
00:33:31.560 I think the firing squad is too easy. 0.99
00:33:33.880 It sends them right to hell. 0.95
00:33:35.640 I think the road to hell should be paved in mortars and mines and C4 and shrapnel and that they should go through the same pain.
00:33:50.780 Worse than what those families gone through, my opinion, for what it's worth.
00:33:59.440 JXRY says another Trump lie. That's what they will say.
00:34:02.220 Yeah, they want to blame everything Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump. 1.00
00:34:04.720 They're Trump deranged lunatics, these people. 0.96
00:34:07.440 Roger says vote red so Trump can give each citizen 5K because of tariffs 0.99
00:34:11.060 and dode frauds topics.
00:34:12.280 I don't think that anyone's getting 5K, by the way.
00:34:15.820 You guys know I'm very honest with you here.
00:34:18.580 Trump has come out and said that he can do it unilaterally, and he can't.
00:34:22.080 I mean, it's the same thing with Joe Biden and the student loan forgiveness
00:34:26.560 that the president pretty much can't unilaterally
00:34:32.320 do anything fiscally without Congress, right?
00:34:35.940 Like he can't just, in layman's terms,
00:34:38.540 go into the pocket of the country,
00:34:39.820 take out money and give it to people.
00:34:41.600 When they did the stimulus checks for COVID,
00:34:43.480 that had to all be passed, PPP, all that stuff
00:34:45.620 had to be passed by Congress because it's fiscal.
00:34:48.880 Pretty much the only thing he can't do.
00:34:51.260 I mean, declare war, you know, he's got the timeline of war,
00:34:53.620 but whatever, it's literally the only thing he can't do
00:34:56.040 is anything fiscal.
00:34:56.920 So I don't think anyone's getting a $5,000 check.
00:34:59.740 Sorry.
00:35:00.460 I didn't mean to, as much as I would love it.
00:35:03.760 You know, ruin anyone's hopes.
00:35:06.140 Teresa says, vote red all the way.
00:35:09.060 Danny says, polls are bogus.
00:35:10.860 Yeah, people keep falling for them.
00:35:12.880 It's a problem, Danny.
00:35:14.720 People keep falling for them. 1.00
00:35:16.640 Fall girls. 1.00
00:35:17.120 Western New York is in the house. 1.00
00:35:19.380 Go Bills.
00:35:20.800 And I'm so jealous.
00:35:22.060 I'm a Giants fan.
00:35:23.360 I love Jackson Dart.
00:35:24.200 I think he's a great quarterback.
00:35:25.640 But Josh Allen is just a totally different specimen and breed of a human being.
00:35:30.220 I'm extremely jealous of the Buffalo Bills.
00:35:35.140 Jen Ross, I'm Texas.
00:35:36.760 Spread the red.
00:35:37.980 Get everybody out to vote for Ken Paxton.
00:35:41.580 Jen says, I wanted to see it.
00:35:43.140 He killed our brothers and sisters.
00:35:44.520 Yeah.
00:35:46.020 I think it, I don't know.
00:35:47.800 I don't see anything wrong with it.
00:35:49.620 but
00:35:51.140 Daryl says
00:35:55.240 polls, question mark
00:35:56.660 100 people polled, two responded, both are
00:35:59.180 Democrats. You know, Daryl
00:36:00.760 there's actually probably a good amount of
00:36:03.160 truth in what you just said
00:36:05.040 probably on a little bit of a larger scale
00:36:07.240 like maybe a thousand people polled
00:36:09.240 and 20 even responded and they were
00:36:11.180 all Democrats. I think it's probably a closer
00:36:13.300 representation of it, but
00:36:14.620 I think you're pretty
00:36:17.180 over the target with these
00:36:18.920 these deranged people. 0.95
00:36:22.760 He will carry the name 0.72
00:36:23.880 Talafrico for the rest of his life.
00:36:25.860 Hopefully that guy goes off into the
00:36:27.760 sunset to never be seen again.
00:36:29.980 Sort of like Andrew Gillum in Florida
00:36:31.880 against Ron DeSantis, although he didn't go into
00:36:33.820 the sunset. That guy went off
00:36:35.920 into like a heroin den and
00:36:37.560 you guys
00:36:39.920 remember him, Andrew Gillum?
00:36:41.380 He was almost the governor of Florida, by the way.
00:36:44.500 The guy was like caught in a room
00:36:45.900 with, I don't remember
00:36:47.700 it was heroin or fentanyl or crack
00:36:49.660 I forgot what it was
00:36:50.780 I had it all mixed up with these Democrats who were just 1.00
00:36:53.520 drug addicts 1.00
00:36:54.320 with gay prostitutes 1.00
00:36:56.900 it was almost the governor of Florida 1.00
00:36:58.980 Susan Rice is on the board of Netflix
00:37:03.100 is she? I didn't know that, maybe I did know that
00:37:05.460 but that's not
00:37:07.480 surprising
00:37:07.960 communism always presents itself
00:37:11.560 as helping the oppressed but always
00:37:13.380 becomes the greatest oppressor
00:37:15.880 The totalitarianism always bleeds through after first contact.
00:37:21.000 I couldn't have said it better myself.
00:37:22.300 You're absolutely right.
00:37:23.800 But there are people who fall for it, Strafer.
00:37:28.280 GW5, Talafrico wouldn't even be allowed to be an altar boy
00:37:31.580 as the church would kick him out immediately.
00:37:34.660 Don't even get me started on the Catholic Church.
00:37:36.720 I was raised Catholic, received all my sacraments, 0.90
00:37:39.240 and I'm so disgusted with the Catholic Church. 0.93
00:37:42.680 the only time you see me in the Catholic church 0.98
00:37:46.060 is for funerals, wakes, weddings 0.99
00:37:49.720 I'm so disgusted by the Catholic church 0.91
00:37:54.100 disgusted by their leadership, disgusted by what they allow 0.99
00:37:57.980 to happen, and this is a hill I'm willing to die on
00:38:01.220 what they've turned that church into is 0.98
00:38:05.680 absolutely disgusting, and what they 0.99
00:38:09.840 tolerate is absolutely disgusting. 0.80
00:38:12.060 In my opinion, the worst thing
00:38:13.780 you could possibly do
00:38:14.940 is, in my opinion, is pedophilia.
00:38:18.340 Preying on young
00:38:19.480 boys and girls.
00:38:21.780 And
00:38:21.840 the Catholic Church
00:38:25.560 has covered that up for years.
00:38:28.060 Time and time again, story
00:38:29.680 and story after story.
00:38:32.040 And
00:38:32.140 priests accused, cardinals accused.
00:38:36.680 And
00:38:37.320 very often defrocked.
00:38:39.840 how it's handled is they just push them off to another parish.
00:38:44.460 Yet you see guys like father Frank Pavone who were defrocked for simply
00:38:47.720 speaking out about the right to life and supporting president Trump.
00:38:51.760 How do you explain that in the Catholic church?
00:38:53.820 How do you explain supporting?
00:38:56.380 Cause that's exactly what you do by allowing these priests to not be
00:39:00.980 criminally charged, but how do you support pedophilia?
00:39:04.400 And the thing that drives me nuts about it is that you always see it and they
00:39:08.720 pray on these kids who don't know any better, these kids who are mentally weak.
00:39:15.940 I went to Catholic school most of my life, and if I ever had a priest try to do that 1.00
00:39:20.140 shit to me, he'd have no teeth in his mouth. 1.00
00:39:25.240 His head would be on backwards, but they know that. 1.00
00:39:28.480 These guys know that.
00:39:29.720 They know who they can pray on.
00:39:31.720 They know who they can get away with.
00:39:33.940 They knew they weren't doing it to me.
00:39:35.460 six feet tall 250 pounds of linebacker in high school you know they weren't getting away with
00:39:41.340 me and they don't try but you see these stories about these kids who go through it and it makes
00:39:46.440 me sick to my stomach that this is a billion dollar multi-billion dollar organization and 0.99
00:39:53.940 they allow that crap to happen and they allow this gay agenda to be pushed forward the lgbtq 0.99
00:40:00.380 agenda to be pushed forward i don't know what the answer to it is maybe the catholic church needs to 1.00
00:40:05.360 to get with the times and allow these priests to get married to women. 0.60
00:40:09.340 I don't know. I don't know what the, what the answer to the question is,
00:40:13.140 but what the Catholic church has allowed to happen is disgusting.
00:40:18.820 And I think anybody who's part of the Catholic church reconsider the 0.74
00:40:23.020 denomination and, and, and being a part of that.
00:40:28.120 I know I certainly haven't, like I said to you, 0.98
00:40:30.460 I don't step foot in a Catholic church unless it's a, you know,
00:40:34.460 a wedding or a funeral procession. 0.92
00:40:37.680 It totally disgusts me.
00:40:41.980 Tallarico says what he thinks the people want to hear. 0.99
00:40:45.140 I don't think anybody wants to hear from that weirdo.
00:40:48.440 Fall girl says if he's talking, he's lying. 0.84
00:40:51.000 Boom.
00:40:53.220 There's the core problem. 1.00
00:40:54.480 Libs don't want God, a church, or a family unit. 0.99
00:40:57.040 The government is everything to them.
00:40:58.340 Well, that's because this is what these politicians
00:41:02.620 rope these people into thinking like people look at politicians some people believe or not look at
00:41:07.780 politicians like they're these godly like figures and to me they're just another dime a dozen hobo
00:41:15.480 telefreaco just blatantly lied uh about which part strafer everything 1.00
00:41:22.100 she's too nice to that idiot irene says vote red i think that's the idea um 0.99
00:41:32.620 Irene, everyone's got to get out. 1.00
00:41:35.940 Everyone's got to vote. 1.00
00:41:37.340 And it's got to be, you know, it's a stupid saying, 0.99
00:41:40.420 but it's got to be too big to rig. 0.99
00:41:45.520 Califrico just gave everybody all the reason not to vote for him
00:41:48.240 right out of his own mouth.
00:41:49.180 But the problem is, is, you know, got aired on CNN once
00:41:52.480 and, you know, we'll never hear about it again.
00:41:56.360 Does he not realize the safe way to remove a baby called C-section?
00:41:59.440 Very safe for mother and baby.
00:42:01.280 Babies can be given to people who want them and they deserve them. 0.90
00:42:04.760 I always say to people, you know, like the reason I'm so against abortion, 0.60
00:42:09.260 part of the reason is you don't have to have a baby.
00:42:15.400 Like there's contraceptives, there's protective suit, whatever.
00:42:21.740 So if you do have a baby, it was on your own doing. 0.76
00:42:26.280 And then you come out and say, well, I don't want it anymore.
00:42:30.900 I never wanted it.
00:42:32.120 Well, why don't you have the preventatives in place before you did what you did?
00:42:38.240 Schaefer says, rope pickup truck, packed road, and a long drive.
00:42:42.800 We've not heard from Omar in several days.
00:42:44.880 Maybe Mike Lindell's exploring the my turbans are working. 0.72
00:42:49.260 Old girl says he's looking forward to his virgins. 1.00
00:42:52.640 That guy needs to burn in rotten hell. 1.00
00:42:55.060 Freak-owned grand planters should get together. 1.00
00:42:57.240 I think they probably already are. 0.99
00:42:58.660 any church that flies the gay pride flag is no longer a place of worshiping god you know i've 0.83
00:43:03.880 seen it i've seen it more times than not and it's uh it's crazy lgbtq this lgbtq to that and it's 0.65
00:43:11.340 like well since when is the church supportive of that fall girl says i agree about the catholic
00:43:19.580 church yeah it's i don't know it's something that really has pissed me off over the course of the
00:43:23.220 last i don't know 10 or 15 years after i got out of high school longer that's been a long time
00:43:28.720 since i've been in high school but um you know tomorrow i went to high school was run by the
00:43:35.580 lasallian brothers in a great totally great place totally great place but you know not everyone's

00:43:48.080 little boys again in just about two weeks yeah you know they got this pope who's i think just
00:43:52.680 as bad as the last one.
00:43:54.560 They all want to be social justice warriors. 0.99
00:43:56.360 Shut your mouth and do your job. 1.00
00:44:00.520 You're not a godly figure. 1.00
00:44:02.440 You're just like everybody else.
00:44:06.120 You weren't appointed by God.
00:44:08.940 You're appointed by your peers. 0.99
00:44:11.440 Do your job and run the Catholic Church. 0.90
00:44:13.640 And when you figure out how to run that thing
00:44:15.340 and you have that under control,
00:44:17.200 then maybe you can comment about social issues.
00:44:19.060 But in your country or inside of your Vatican City,
00:44:21.900 behind your walls.
00:44:26.920 The Buffalo Diocese has so many lawsuits
00:44:29.240 and is going bankrupt.
00:44:30.920 That's great to hear,
00:44:32.020 but I'm sure those lawsuits will,
00:44:34.140 you know, go by the wayside,
00:44:37.820 as it seems most of these cases do.
00:44:41.140 Trafer says,
00:44:41.660 I can't wait to see how much Stephen Crowder
00:44:43.400 can win from CNN and Jubilee.

00:44:48.340 Excuse me.
00:44:51.000 Excuse me.
00:44:52.800 Yeah, I saw that on Twitter.
00:44:54.920 I didn't know that until I saw a crowd or post that, but it's excellent.
00:44:58.540 Any dollar amount that can be squeezed out of news organizations like CNN
00:45:03.160 is a win for America.
00:45:06.640 It's a win for justice, truth, justice, the American way.
00:45:09.660 It's a win for everybody.
00:45:11.400 So hopefully you can get what's his.
00:45:15.280 Can't play drives and get away with it.
00:45:16.820 You can't steal and get away with it.
00:45:19.660 not once it's a copyrighted or trademarked or whatever protection is put on
