The Great America Show - MASTRIANO SAYS WE’LL LOSE OUR COUNTRY IF WE BLOW IT IN PENNSYLVANIA ON NOVEMBER 8TH

00:00:00.000 Hello, everybody. I'm Lou Dobbs, and welcome to The Great America Show. Great to have you with us today.

00:00:06.780 We're getting closer and closer to Election Day, and believe it or not, our countdown is down to single digits.

00:00:14.140 How about that? We'll be talking about that, and I think I should mention that President Biden has a new count on the number of states in the Union.

00:00:22.920 We'll take that up, and I think we have to at least lightly examine, mention at the very least, that Pelosi hammer attack episode in the Speaker's home.

00:00:33.360 She wasn't there, but unfortunately for her husband, he was.

00:00:37.520 One week till the election, as I said, the most important midterm election of our lives.

00:00:42.740 It's an existential election, and if that sounds like hyperbole, let's examine the facts.

00:00:48.760 Biden has pushed through $6 trillion in federal spending.

00:00:52.980 Think about that, $6 trillion, and he hasn't been president for even two years yet.

00:00:58.620 The national debt has grown to more than $31 trillion.

00:01:02.680 Yes, that's $5 trillion more than our entire economy, and that's part of the reason for high inflation.

00:01:10.180 The reason we're living through this period of outrageously high prices for food, for gasoline, heating, oil, clothing, for almost everything.

00:01:19.640 But in the midst of all the angst and despair, the stock market is looking up.

00:01:25.620 The Dow Jones Industrial is up more than 14% just this month.

00:01:30.420 It's the best track in almost 50 years, and depending on what happens on this final day of trading in October, this could be the best October on the Dow in history.

00:01:41.540 That's going back to 1896.

00:01:44.200 But what a mess all around these markets, because the Fed this week is expected to raise interest rates up 75 basis points again, and that could set off another sell-off in the market.

00:01:58.640 Not even two years in office and 6 million illegal immigrants as well entering the country.

00:02:04.540 That's an invasion by any standard, and Biden and Harris say our border's secure.

00:02:10.280 Check.

00:02:11.260 Don't you love these people?

00:02:12.480 And no sense talking about the cartel's sex trafficking and poisoning of America.

00:02:18.500 Fentanyl is now the number one killer of Americans, ages 18 to 45, and not a peep from the Biden White House,

00:02:26.800 where apparently they just love the Mexican drug cartels, because they're putting tens of billions of dollars into their coffers,

00:02:34.380 and they've turned the entire Mexican border over to the cartels.

00:02:39.000 Who knows?

00:02:40.180 Maybe the big guy is getting a 10% cut like usual.

00:02:44.440 The cartels get $12,000 to $15,000 for each alien they smuggle over the wide-open border.

00:02:51.440 Six million of them.

00:02:53.160 Six times.

00:02:54.440 Let's see.

00:02:55.380 Let's be conservative.

00:02:56.560 $10,000 for each illegal alien.

00:03:00.040 That equals, are you ready?

00:03:01.920 Doing just a little quick math.

00:03:03.380 $60 billion in two years.

00:03:06.420 If Biden were to get his usual big guy cut of 10%, that's $6 billion in the Biden vault.

00:03:14.540 I'm sure the Biden crime family does have expenses on all this, so that number is probably a little lower.

00:03:19.940 It's still a hefty take, and not so great for the hundreds of thousands of Americans being poisoned and killed

00:03:27.140 by the cartels and the Chinese who are providing the fentanyl, 0.97

00:03:31.600 or the millions whose wages are being undercut by illegal workers.

00:03:36.700 But for Biden, I'm sure he just considers all of those Americans killed and wages cut to be merely collateral damage

00:03:45.040 in his fight against inflation, the inflation that he's created.

00:03:50.700 Quite a little racket they've all constructed, isn't it?

00:03:53.660 And no wonder the Marxist Dems fought so hard against that wall that President Trump wanted to build on the Mexican border.

00:04:01.700 That would have been a real hit on Biden family finances, wouldn't it?

00:04:06.480 In fact, not only this puppet president of ours, but his masters, the Marxist Dem cabal that runs him,

00:04:13.800 the Democratic Party, and the country now.

00:04:17.380 And with all that going on, the hogs are getting fatter by the day in the swamp under this administration. 0.94

00:04:23.860 They say the rest of the country be damned.

00:04:27.080 Either his puppeteers or the puppet Biden forgot how many states are in the union as well.

00:04:32.700 He was in Philadelphia campaigning for another impaired candidate, John Fetterman,

00:04:37.820 who wants to put as many felons on the street as possible.

00:04:41.020 And in his remarks, President Biden referred to 54 states.

00:04:46.280 Biden, it seems, is gone or going, folks.

00:04:50.080 It's that straightforward.

00:04:51.740 Remember when Obama said there are 57 states while campaigning in 2008?

00:04:57.100 So, by some reckonings, Biden has a case to say that he's at least three states smarter than Obama.

00:05:04.600 That case can be argued, I realize.

00:05:06.840 And speaking of arguments, a doozy has been unleashed out in the People's Republic of California.

00:05:13.540 Or to quote the new owner of Twitter, replying to Hillary Clinton, quote,

00:05:18.400 there is a tiny possibility there might be more to this story than meets the eye, end quote.

00:05:24.680 And the story to which Elon Musk was referring is this.

00:05:29.600 A man clad only in his underwear attacked Speaker Nancy Pelosi's husband with a hammer at 2.30 in the morning in the Pelosi's San Francisco home.

00:05:40.900 Got all that?

00:05:42.100 Paul Pelosi is now in a hospital recovering after surgery for injuries including a fractured skull and injuries to his hands and arms.

00:05:51.460 And, by the way, you should note, all those injuries came as the man attacked him in front of the police that had responded to a call for help.

00:06:00.280 Police have given conflicting accounts of what actually transpired.

00:06:04.840 And some news outlets, liberal news outlets, of course, tried initially to label the assailant, 42-year-old David DePaype, as a MAGA extremist.

00:06:14.780 The truth, obviously, is more complicated.

00:06:17.440 DePaype is, it turns out, a nudist activist who lived in and near a hippie collective and homeless encampment.

00:06:26.360 Most recently, living in a bus in front of the house of his ex-partner.

00:06:31.060 Also a nudist activist with, according to Breitbart, a Black Lives flag and a window in her home,

00:06:38.080 an LGBT rainbow with pot symbol hanging from a tree in her front yard.

00:06:43.180 She's the mother of his two children. 1.00

00:06:46.040 And a neighbor says DePaype is mentally ill. 0.99

00:06:49.560 As I said, complicated.

00:06:51.680 And we will update you, of course, on this story throughout.

00:06:55.560 And so it goes.

00:06:57.160 The polls are converging in this final week of the midterm campaigns all over the country.

00:07:02.560 And Pennsylvania is no exception.

00:07:04.820 Where State Senator Doug Mastriano is in a bitter battle for the governor's office with one of the state's establishment Marxist Dems.

00:07:14.180 And Mastriano is also opposed by an establishment.

00:07:18.020 He's being opposed as well by the state's GOP establishment.

00:07:22.620 As well as Mitch McConnell and the RNC's Ronna McDaniel.

00:07:25.920 Because, you see, Mastriano is endorsed by President Donald Trump.

00:07:31.260 Because he's America first, he's MAGA, a strong faith, family values, pro-life candidate.

00:07:37.900 His is a great story.

00:07:40.100 Mastriano is a retired U.S. Army colonel, combat veteran, has a Ph.D. in history,

00:07:46.460 opposed by the GOP establishment, as I said, because they still hate Donald Trump.

00:07:51.860 So much so, they prefer a Marxist Dem win in Pennsylvania rather than Doug Mastriano.

00:07:59.460 Senator Mastriano is our guest here today.

00:08:02.100 And welcome back to the Great America Show, Doug.

00:08:04.820 What a race you're in. 0.99

00:08:06.580 Your opponent has outspent you by something like 27 to 1?

00:08:11.480 That's insane.

00:08:12.940 Yet your polling numbers are closing.

00:08:14.840 Give us your assessment in this final week before Election Day.

00:08:18.940 Thank you, Lou, for having me back on.

00:08:22.380 And you're right, we're massively outspent.

00:08:24.480 The Democrats see that the road to the White House goes to Pennsylvania.

00:08:27.980 And so they've invested a lot of money in my opponent.

00:08:32.020 And they also see that, you know, if Fetterman does win and he can't stay in office,

00:08:37.320 the governor gets to appoint, you know, his replacement.

00:08:39.660 So it's a twofer.

00:08:41.220 And the Democrats get it.

00:08:42.320 The establishment on our side does not get it.

00:08:44.920 But we're funded by the people.

00:08:46.200 So my wife and I have campaigned in all 67 counties multiple times.

00:08:51.740 And we're hitting hard in the battleground areas of the state right now,

00:08:54.860 in the southeast, Philly area, in Pittsburgh and Erie,

00:08:58.540 as well as some places up in the northeast, Poconos.

00:09:01.420 And our reception, Lou, has been, you know, astoundingly well.

00:09:04.720 I mean, I campaigned yesterday in three events in Bucks County,

00:09:08.820 which is just outside of Philly to the north.

00:09:10.920 And our first event we went to in the middle of the workday,

00:09:13.280 we had standing room only.

00:09:14.360 It was like 400 or 500 people.

00:09:15.780 I mean, when my opponent goes to these events in friendly territory,

00:09:18.640 he can't draw but 12 or 15 people.

00:09:20.700 So we've seen that throughout the state over the past six months.

00:09:24.340 This is an odd thing.

00:09:26.600 He doesn't seem to have much of a following,

00:09:29.480 and he doesn't seem to have much of a plan.

00:09:33.080 And, frankly, I don't know what he stands for.

00:09:36.920 I mean, that's all to the aside here.

00:09:39.020 I mean, I know what you stand for.

00:09:41.680 And, frankly, I mean, I look at the two of you, the energy that you and your wife,

00:09:46.980 by the way, are bringing to the campaign trail.

00:09:49.420 That's the stuff that I really like.

00:09:51.940 As an observer of politics for a very long time, I've seen it work well,

00:09:56.960 and I've seen it also represent candidates who are really for the people.

00:10:02.580 And the best kind of people are outspending the most energy,

00:10:06.540 and I would include, by the way, amongst those candidates, one Donald J. Trump,

00:10:10.900 a man of tireless, endless energy, working for the people

00:10:16.760 and enjoying being with the people.

00:10:18.800 I don't sense that from your opponent.

00:10:20.400 But, I mean, I look at you, and you're a 30-year veteran of the United States Army,

00:10:27.040 a retired officer, a retired colonel in the Army, a combat veteran.

00:10:33.700 You've got four master's degrees, a Ph.D.

00:10:36.780 You've been in public service since you got out of the military.

00:10:41.580 I'm wondering what in the world.

00:10:43.380 I think you're the perfect candidate with an almost perfect record.

00:10:50.400 And I say almost because I have to believe you've got a C somewhere in school,

00:10:55.980 maybe in elementary school or something.

00:10:58.180 I don't know.

00:10:59.680 But I would ascribe that to you.

00:11:02.480 You know, none of us is perfect, but you're come off the coast.

00:11:05.200 So give us a sense of what you think the people of Pennsylvania are looking for.

00:11:09.880 You know, in the Southeast, it's largely law and order,

00:11:16.120 and a governor can take on crime.

00:11:18.400 And, you know, my opponent's been the attorney general for six years,

00:11:21.700 and we have, like, lawlessness in the streets in Philadelphia.

00:11:24.400 You know, 4,400 robberies this year, 2,000, almost 2,000 shooting victims this year,

00:11:29.920 1,000 carjacking, you know, 439 homicides already this year,

00:11:34.880 and it looks like we've been 600 before the year's out.

00:11:37.440 Now, that's spilling out into the surrounding counties and the suburbs that are normally safe.

00:11:43.440 We see Wawa leaving, you know, in part the city because of the lawlessness

00:11:46.920 and the dangers of their employees and the damage to their stores.

00:11:49.960 And so law and order on one side of the state, the rest of the state, inflation,

00:11:55.060 the economic situation, you know, a hope for the future, taxation.

00:11:59.580 There's a lot of talk as well about the wokeness in our schools.

00:12:02.460 There's a lot of bad stuff going through the schools.

00:12:04.500 And my opponent, he said he's going to basically continue the policies of Wolf

00:12:08.400 when he was in an interview with his past June in Philadelphia at a local affiliate.

00:12:13.480 And if you're happy with the way things are going, then, you know, he's the guy.

00:12:18.000 But if you want change, then Doug Mastriano is the man of the hour,

00:12:22.220 and that's what we're hearing across the state.

00:12:23.840 Yeah, I would hope that that would be the case because the people of Pennsylvania,

00:12:29.000 frankly, have a lot to prove to the rest of the country right now.

00:12:32.920 Doug, just to be straightforward about it, I mean, the election of 2020 was an awful,

00:12:39.560 an awful spectacle in Pennsylvania. 0.99

00:12:41.820 Your court system looked, you know, I mean, pathetic. 0.97

00:12:47.780 By the way, the U.S. Supreme Court didn't have any glory to shine on itself either 0.91

00:12:52.740 with two opportunities to intervene and do what's right,

00:12:56.760 at least in terms of getting to the bottom of what was going on in your state and others.

00:13:02.320 But also the Republican leadership in the state legislature, my goodness.

00:13:06.540 And now we've got 250,000 votes have been sent out by your secretary of state,

00:13:15.240 unverified ballots.

00:13:18.940 This is a time, it seems to me, the people of Pennsylvania would want reform,

00:13:23.220 would want change, and to raise the level of the quality of public servants in that state. 0.96

00:13:30.620 I agree.

00:13:31.660 I mean, it was a laughingstock what happened in 2020.

00:13:34.260 And, you know, asking questions as a senator does not make anyone an election denier.

00:13:39.320 I mean, I don't think Hillary's conceded since 2016.

00:13:41.960 I mean, Stacey Abrams hasn't conceded in Georgia, you know, four years ago. 0.52

00:13:45.700 And we have a lot of unanswered questions.

00:13:48.320 Sadly, our governor has vetoed most of the good legislation we had,

00:13:52.140 but we have tightened up election laws a little bit.

00:13:54.240 But here's the thing, Lou.

00:13:55.860 It's time for people in this state and across this nation to stop waving their fists at the TVs

00:14:01.320 and, you know, being angry, do something about it.

00:14:03.320 And so, you know, volunteer for a campaign, support a candidate, give money if you can,

00:14:07.860 be a poll watcher.

00:14:09.220 You know, this time last year, Glenn Yonkin was told he was going to lose,

00:14:13.640 but he had 90-some percent of the polls manned with poll watchers

00:14:17.320 who made sure the shenanigans were at a low level.

00:14:20.400 And because of that, I believe he won the race.

00:14:22.700 So we still need another thousand or so poll watchers out there. 0.54

00:14:25.420 So go to DougForGov.com, sign up, and do something about it.

00:14:28.380 Yeah, I think that that's an important invitation to all of your supporters

00:14:34.120 because basically we need two Republicans at every poll in the country.

00:14:43.580 It's that straightforward, that simple.

00:14:45.680 And without it, there's going to be an opportunity for, well, for illegal activity.

00:14:53.940 And we learned a lot in 2020.

00:14:56.820 It'd be a shame not to put to work what we learned in 2020, in 2022.

00:15:02.100 So you still need 1,000.

00:15:06.740 What are you doing to get them?

00:15:09.580 We're pushing real hard on social media and any platform such as your show.

00:15:13.660 You know, I'll mention that.

00:15:14.960 And, you know, people are rising up.

00:15:16.800 You know, our goal is to have, you know, all the polls covered in the state.

00:15:20.260 It's not that hard.

00:15:21.340 We'll provide training.

00:15:23.020 Our state GOP in Pennsylvania is fantastic, Lou.

00:15:26.740 Absolutely no complaints there.

00:15:28.100 They're helping us with the training and equipping, you know, and as well as overwatching voting integrity in Pennsylvania.

00:15:34.620 There's a lot of issues out there.

00:15:36.040 But it can be resolved with transparency and people, you know, boots on the ground.

00:15:40.100 Yeah, boots on the ground are important.

00:15:42.600 Voters everywhere are important because they're not only voting.

00:15:47.280 They need to be participating in the process itself, whether it's just simply watching that poll,

00:15:52.720 making sure that there is no skullduggery afoot as Oliver Wendell, excuse me, Sherlock Holmes once said, Oliver Wendell Holmes said something else.

00:16:06.040 But I've just, I marvel right now at where we are in this country.

00:16:11.320 In your state, you have the same problem.

00:16:14.400 We have so many of the same problems in every state in the union.

00:16:18.820 Teachers, the two major teachers unions have declared war on the children that are going to school.

00:16:27.500 In our public schools, the great equalizer, and they're treating it like the children are theirs to do as they wish,

00:16:33.360 not as their parents would have them and as the community would demand.

00:16:39.000 They should be safe.

00:16:40.840 They should be taught at the highest levels.

00:16:42.960 This is not a time for nonsense like C-R-T-E-S-G-D-E-I. 0.91

00:16:50.920 All of these programs are nonsense.

00:16:53.420 Your thoughts about what is happening to schools and how Doug Mastriano would fix it?

00:17:00.420 We had a hearing in the state senate a week and a half ago, and we brought in moms from across the state,

00:17:05.940 especially the southeast part of the state, and it was horrific.

00:17:08.580 We know the stories, but they hear it out of the mouths of moms who are confronting this and being pushed out and told to be quiet from a bureaucrat. 0.77

00:17:19.020 I mean, the indoctrination for first and second graders with pronoun games, and the kids are told, you know, pick your pronoun today and don't tell your parents, by the way, that we're doing this at school.

00:17:28.880 So, gender transition surgeries are being offered to minors without parental consent, or they say that they'll have the parents catch up to it later on.

00:17:38.300 Wait, wait, wait, wait.

00:17:39.280 Just a minute.

00:17:40.040 I got to say that again?

00:17:42.080 Yeah.

00:17:43.200 Say that again, please.

00:17:44.060 So, in the southeast, there's a hard push, and Shapiro is part of this, together, of course, with Dr. Levine, who sets the standard for this as our health secretary.

00:17:54.880 There's being offered and paid for now by the Philadelphia Children's Hospital, gender transition surgeries.

00:18:02.380 And the schools are playing a key role in that because they're playing pronoun games, you know, some of the schools are, where they have radical educators there.

00:18:11.260 And the kids, the moms testified under oath that the kids that are being indoctrinated with pronoun games and confusion to set the standard, you know, the conditions for gender transition surgeries later, they're told not to tell their parents what's going on in the classroom.

00:18:24.480 Well, that's amazing.

00:18:26.960 They're using public schools as a feeder program to clinics for gender transition for children.

00:18:35.620 That is transition and surgery.

00:18:38.620 I mean, this is, there's been no public debate on this.

00:18:42.040 There have been no federal hearings.

00:18:43.760 To my knowledge, there have been no statewide hearings anywhere.

00:18:49.280 Perhaps New York.

00:18:50.920 Perhaps, I don't know, Pennsylvania.

00:18:53.100 Have there been hearings on this nonsense?

00:18:56.960 It came up during the hearing that I helped organize in our state committee.

00:19:02.040 I don't chair the committee, but the state chair is Senator Argyle.

00:19:04.800 And that's where this came up.

00:19:06.280 And so, and of course, it was pushed back harshly by the Democrats.

00:19:09.400 But the moms would have nothing of that when, you know, the Democrats started trying to hide behind race and what have you. 1.00

00:19:15.460 I mean, the moms are real heroes there. 0.99

00:19:17.460 And so what has happened is, you know, my movement here, it's called the Walk is Free People movement.

00:19:21.980 It started during the shutdown.

00:19:23.960 It's comprised of just not very conservative Republicans.

00:19:27.520 It includes a lot and a lot of Democrats, independents who find their kids being, you know, mishandled in the school system.

00:19:33.220 So what I'm going to do about it, Lou, on day one, gender pronoun games end in our school's executive order. 0.59

00:19:39.680 On day one, see our Keeley band.

00:19:41.420 On day one, we'll have, of course, curriculum transparency.

00:19:44.220 Schools will have to post all their curriculum online for parental review and parental transparency.

00:19:48.820 See, my opponent had fought really hard in Pennsylvania last year for the right of boys to go into the girls' bathroom. 0.97

00:19:55.680 And he was not content winning in Pennsylvania.

00:19:58.100 He also fought in Virginia.

00:19:59.420 And this time last year, because of my opponent's work, a beautiful young 15-year-old girl was raped in Loudoun County, Virginia.

00:20:06.620 We remember what happened.

00:20:07.820 The school board tried to cover it up.

00:20:09.240 The dads were in front of the school board.

00:20:10.820 And the dad was hauled out in handcuffs, not the school board.

00:20:13.020 I mean, this is insane.

00:20:13.940 So on day one, boys are not allowed in the girls' bathrooms or the girls' locker rooms, for that matter.

00:20:18.820 And this ridiculous encroachment on women's rights end on day one of my menstruation as far as the female athletes will no longer have to compete against male athletes. 0.89

00:20:29.920 What have we descended to, Doug, when we have to tell the boys, you only go in the boys' room, and girls, you only go in the girls' room?

00:20:40.180 I mean, that's sort of elemental, isn't it?

00:20:42.980 Yet that is how far the left is pushing, how hard they're pushing in this country to destroy the identities of children, to confuse them further, and to go well beyond anything like education, reading, writing, and arithmetic, which used to be this.

00:21:03.480 That was the mission.

00:21:04.600 When I was fortunate enough to be growing up, how dare these unions get involved in all of this?

00:21:12.280 And how dare state officials, local officials permit these school teachers to usurp the rights and responsibilities of parents? 0.51

00:21:23.320 Parents look to them for help, for support in the care and the development of their children.

00:21:29.900 And instead, they're talking sex with them at the age of, what, five or six on up?

00:21:37.160 That's right. 0.88

00:21:37.500 This is insane.

00:21:39.640 And let me ask you this.

00:21:42.220 Is anybody helping on this issue in Pennsylvania?

00:21:45.340 Is there an outcry against it?

00:21:47.620 Or is the state of Pennsylvania just rolling over for this?

00:21:51.860 The outcry is from the moms and grandmoms out there.

00:21:56.040 I mean, and many dads as well.

00:21:58.200 I mean, there's just a pause, Lou, at how low it's gotten.

00:22:00.720 You're exactly right that I had your list of things that I just did that I'm going to have to, that I'm going to reverse on day one when I'm sworn in on 17 January.

00:22:08.680 Shows you how low the leftists have gone.

00:22:11.520 They've gone too far.

00:22:12.720 They're destroying our kids' education.

00:22:15.240 And our test scores in Pennsylvania are tanking.

00:22:18.060 This far-left school union and my opponent are waging war on every parent and student.

00:22:23.140 I mean, they sued to keep kids in mass.

00:22:25.320 They sued to get boys and girls' bathroom. 0.98

00:22:27.100 And instead of focusing on getting our kids opportunity and educating them so they can break out of poverty in Philadelphia, you know, Lou, many of these young men and women, girls and boys, left school in Philadelphia during the shutdown because they're not being educated.

00:22:41.040 And now they're finding themselves, you know, caught up in the middle of a crossfire or in gangs because they make some bad choices.

00:22:47.680 The grave diggers in the southeast say they can't keep up with what the dead teens are burying.

00:22:52.420 You know, that could have been, and this is not hyperbolic, that could have been my dad in the 50s.

00:22:57.220 My dad dropped out of school and, you know, and he was getting in trouble with the law.

00:23:00.940 And a judge said basically either join the Navy or go to jail.

00:23:04.500 And my dad went to, he used to say, Doug, I was a punk until I joined the Navy.

00:23:08.460 And the Navy turned his life around.

00:23:09.980 It turned him around to one of the hardest working, one of the most patriotic family men that you'd ever meet.

00:23:15.020 And he's since passed on.

00:23:16.520 And I think some of those kids in Philadelphia who've lost their way are finding that they've lost opportunities because they're caught up in a cycle of crime and even being killed on the streets.

00:23:25.860 And that's as a result of these failed policies of the far-left Democrats in Pennsylvania.

00:23:29.460 That needs to end.

00:23:31.000 Yeah.

00:23:31.100 Well, it seems to me that they would be begging Doug Mastriano to be governor.

00:23:39.260 I know that you're running a very tight race.

00:23:42.140 But, I mean, here you are with all of your life experience talking about what is important, coming at it from a perspective of patriotism, a commitment to self-improvement, a commitment to decency and honor.

00:24:00.640 And Shapiro is trying to strip children of their identities.

00:24:05.800 Please, this is a bizarre moment.

00:24:10.100 And the national media and the state media, I understand, are all controlled by the corporate left in this country.

00:24:17.260 But certainly, the churches, are they rising up?

00:24:21.420 Are the synagogues, I mean, what in the world? 1.00

00:24:26.180 Where is the rest of the community on these issues?

00:24:29.480 Because they're fundamental, the foundation of our nation.

00:24:35.800 Let me speak to that.

00:24:38.920 So, you know, I've been with the Indian community, the Asian Indian community, and they're very supportive.

00:24:45.440 You know, they believe in education and opportunity in America as a community.

00:24:50.460 The churches in Pennsylvania, kind of a mixed bag.

00:24:53.540 You know, some of the churches, sadly, blue, and they share all our values.

00:24:56.960 But, oh, you know, I might lose my tax-exempt status, Romans chapter 13, and quoting that out of context.

00:25:02.080 And thankfully, there are some churches who are like, you know what, this is America.

00:25:06.760 This is not about my tax-exempt status.

00:25:09.340 Because the left all the time has politicians, you know, preaching from the pulpit their politics, not even talking their testimony.

00:25:16.320 And so, you know what, it's time for the churches in Pennsylvania to stop playing these games.

00:25:23.080 Either you're part of the solution or you're part of the problem.

00:25:26.240 And this race here, you know, Reby and I have stepped out.

00:25:29.540 We believe in our state.

00:25:30.640 We want to change the course of the state here and save it from the direction it's going in.

00:25:34.920 But we can't do it without the people of Pennsylvania.

00:25:37.120 So, you know, churches and pastors, church leaders out there, you have 11 days to make a choice to take a stand.

00:25:43.300 And if you choose poorly in a safe way, you know, and wring your hands, oh, we can't do this in our congregations while the Democrats do all the time.

00:25:51.140 I even had a pastor last night tell me, you know, Doug, we'll pray over you if you come.

00:25:55.160 But, you know, we try to keep politics out of the pulpit.

00:25:57.840 But, you know, the Democrats come in all the time, and I get no pushback for that.

00:26:01.060 I'm like thinking, you know, we need a little courage here.

00:26:03.140 It's time to stand up and do the right thing.

00:26:05.500 And we're going to lose our country if we blow it in Pennsylvania on November 8th.

00:26:11.660 Yeah, I don't know that, you know, I can't say that that's hyperbole.

00:26:16.640 I think I agree with you on that issue.

00:26:18.840 I hadn't thought of it that way.

00:26:20.060 But it is a fulcrum, a pivot point, certainly, to have a state the size of Pennsylvania with your immense resources,

00:26:28.440 which I know you talk about, and freeing up those resources and your economy.

00:26:33.140 To restore prosperity to the state, the state has been led by left-wing hacks.

00:26:39.220 And I just don't see what the discussion is here.

00:26:42.800 When you look at a president like Joe Biden, impaired, most 60% of those surveyed say that this president is unfit to be in the Oval Office.

00:26:53.800 We watch John Fetterman in a debate with Dr. Oz.

00:26:58.340 And we've got Chuck Schumer saying, well, we've got a little problem in Pennsylvania.

00:27:02.900 The Democratic Party in Pennsylvania should be held to account for every step that he takes from the moment they put him forward after he had that stroke.

00:27:13.900 They're trying to run a fraud game, and it is irresponsible, and the national media and the state media, to not talk about his health.

00:27:24.340 If his health, if that of the president of the United States isn't appropriate for scrutiny by the American press and people, where have we come as a nation?

00:27:35.620 The left has seized control of minds and frozen the very idea of free speech.

00:27:43.780 I agree.

00:27:44.640 And, you know, you and I have watched this double standing.

00:27:47.120 You remember in 1984 during the Reagan-Mondale debate, I think it was Ted Koppel.

00:27:52.200 I can't remember.

00:27:52.700 But he's like, well, Mr. President, you know, when you leave office in four years, should you win re-election, you'll be 78 years old.

00:27:58.740 You'll be the oldest president in office.

00:28:00.580 And there was no questions about Joe Biden's age going in at 78 years old.

00:28:04.580 And this double standard, this duplicity here needs to be called out.

00:28:08.260 And I'm tired of the hypocrisy because they gave Fetterman a free pass.

00:28:12.220 Lou, the one job of Lieutenant Governor John Fetterman is to preside as the president of the Senate.

00:28:18.460 He has not shown up to any of our sessions in person to preside since May.

00:28:24.280 And could you imagine if that was me or another Republican?

00:28:27.240 I mean, there would be hectic pay in the media.

00:28:29.140 You know, he's out campaigning.

00:28:30.220 Do your job.

00:28:31.020 Resign.

00:28:31.560 But since it's one of their guys on their team, you know, they look the other way with grace and mercy.

00:28:36.140 Well, good grief.

00:28:37.440 I mean, we're in a situation where the guy who is an absentee, by the way, I think you're very fortunate he didn't show up from what I've seen. 0.95

00:28:44.400 He's a complete fraud. 0.92

00:28:46.500 He is a left-wing hack. 0.99

00:28:48.460 Has no visible means of support over the course of his adult life other than the money that he gets from his parents.

00:28:55.180 And suddenly, the left-wing media wants to put him in front of the people of Pennsylvania.

00:29:00.260 This is disgusting to me that the Democratic Party is behaving this way and conducting itself.

00:29:05.960 It just demonstrates that the Democrat Party, the Marxist Dem Party in this country, they're devoid of values.

00:29:15.000 They're devoid of any aspirational and, I think, patriotic impulse that I can see.

00:29:22.520 They're authoritarian.

00:29:23.120 Karen, they want to tell you and your children when they go to school, when they wear masks, what they do, and when they do it.

00:29:30.040 This isn't America.

00:29:31.640 This is some sort of freak show put on by the radical Dems to benefit whom?

00:29:40.400 Because it doesn't benefit America to have our borders wide open, to shut down our energy industry in this country.

00:29:46.820 Fossil fuels are suddenly the enemy when those fossil fuels have fired American progress for almost 200 years in this country.

00:29:57.700 You get the last word here.

00:29:59.980 I'm going to say it.

00:30:01.280 Governor, it just has a great ring to it.

00:30:03.680 I think you are the right guy at the right moment to be governor of Pennsylvania.

00:30:08.640 Pennsylvania, I can't imagine why there is even a moment's choice on the part of any Pennsylvania to make it so.

00:30:17.060 So this is where we always give our guests the final word, your concluding thoughts, if you would.

00:30:22.760 Thank you.

00:30:24.300 Thank you, Lou.

00:30:25.360 It's always an honor and privilege.

00:30:27.160 Thank you for being a voice of reasons for so many years, you know, on the airwaves.

00:30:31.460 At least Fetterman had the courage to show up, Lou.

00:30:33.840 I mean, my opponent, Shapiro, refuses to debate me.

00:30:36.720 I offered him over 75 days ago now to debate.

00:30:39.580 He could even bring Donna Brazile, and you have a cheat sheet, you know, in her pocket for him.

00:30:44.760 But he's getting away with it because the Democrats, you know, have the media on their side.

00:30:48.980 You know, in the end, the future of our nation is decided by Pennsylvania.

00:30:52.460 We are the keystone state.

00:30:53.740 We're sitting on a gold mine of energy resources, which under Shapiro will be crushed and destroyed.

00:30:59.100 We'll see inflation and gas prices even go up higher in Pennsylvania.

00:31:02.460 Or under Mastriano, where we're going to have an economic renaissance.

00:31:05.720 I'm going to open up our energy sector like we've never done before.

00:31:09.740 We're going to drill and dig and export to our allies over in Europe and bring all those billions of euros over to Pennsylvania.

00:31:15.840 And it'll be a place of energy and prosperity and hope and opportunity and a place where people can walk as free men and women and not be looking over their shoulder, whether, you know, there's a criminal coming or there's a government bureaucrat out of Harrisburg coming after them.

00:31:28.000 Because Ronald Reagan is right, you know, the most terrifying words are, I'm from the government, I'm here to help.

00:31:32.300 Under Mastriano, we're going to roll back the bureaucracy massively and put the power back in the hands of the people.

00:31:38.560 Well, Doug Mastriano, we appreciate you being with us.

00:31:41.840 We thank you so much.

00:31:43.080 And we we wish you Godspeed in your in your campaign.

00:31:48.740 It's closing and I know that you're going to bring that thing right to the edge and prevail on Election Day.

00:31:56.460 We certainly hope so.

00:31:57.820 We pray so.

00:31:58.940 And Godspeed.

00:32:00.500 Doug Mastriano.

00:32:01.680 Thanks for being with us.

00:32:03.020 And God bless you.

00:32:05.360 God bless you, too.

00:32:06.260 Thank you, sir.

00:32:06.840 Doug Mastriano, Republican for Governor of Pennsylvania.

00:32:12.340 As you heard, his website is Doug4Gov.

00:32:15.860 That's Doug4Gov, the letter for, gov.com.

00:32:20.460 If you want to help him out and send a message to the establishment GOP, that's Doug4Gov.com.

00:32:28.320 Thanks, everybody.

00:32:29.040 Here tomorrow, our guest will be leading Republican pollster and strategist John McLaughlin of the McLaughlin Group

00:32:35.880 to tell us how these elections are unfolding all over the country.

00:32:40.480 Be sure to vote and to join us here tomorrow on The Great America Show.

00:32:44.660 Till then, God bless you and may God bless America.
