Matt DiPerno is running for attorney general of the Great State of Michigan, and is in a statistical tie with the incumbent in the polls. He talks about why he thinks Joe Biden is the best choice for the Democratic nomination.
00:01:43.940And I, for one, doubt very much that he is bluffing.
00:01:46.820But since we have to pretend that Joe Biden is fully equipped and fit to be president,
00:01:52.340I suppose I might have to worry about my conclusions.
00:01:55.820OK, I've thought it through and now I'm scared.
00:01:59.480But a positive development to share with you.
00:02:02.500We all know all about the 2020 election.
00:02:05.680No thanks to any investigation by the Justice Department or government or any state governments.
00:02:11.220The Marxist Dems and their collaborators, including, of course, the deep state and their declarations that the election was the most secure in history.
00:02:20.880Well, there's some serious doubts being raised now about those declarations of a perfect election.
00:02:28.060This week, Bolton County, Pennsylvania, filed a lawsuit against Dominion voting systems,
00:02:33.960claiming severe issues with voting data discovered after the election.
00:02:38.480It's taken almost two years for a lot of claims to surface and to be taken seriously.
00:02:50.200We're just about six weeks from the election and no one on the Republican side seems to know just how strong our election security will be.
00:02:58.680Someone who's worked hard to assure electoral integrity is our guest today.
00:03:03.280He's Matt DiPerno, running for attorney general of the great state of Michigan.
00:03:07.280Matt is trying to unseat the incumbent attorney general, a Democrat, whom Matt calls the most corrupt attorney general in the country.
00:04:03.780I think it shows that Dana Nessel, my opponent, is, as we've been saying, the most corrupt attorney general in the country right now.
00:04:12.860She runs exclusively on a social agenda platform.
00:04:17.320She doesn't care about the high crime rate facing our state.
00:04:21.120She doesn't care about the illegal fentanyl flowing into our state, killing our children and destroying families.
00:04:26.520She doesn't care that we're now number 10 in sex trafficking in the country, all of which she does nothing about.
00:04:33.400Instead, she has more police right now under investigation than any time in our state's history.
00:04:38.920Well, there ought to be, it seems to be, a lot of investigations going on in the state of Michigan, where we've seen voting irregularities, voting anomalies, as some would like to call them.
00:04:51.600And has she investigated any of those issues, whether it's Wayne County or whatever, the jurisdiction?
00:05:02.020In fact, we just saw some reports coming out recently over the last couple of weeks continuing to show that our qualified voter role is a disaster.
00:05:11.960We just showed in the last primary on August 2nd that there were problems across the state with not only machines, but within the way Democratic jurisdictions handled the election.
00:05:25.040But the honest answer is the current attorney general, she doesn't care about investigating voter fraud or election fraud, but instead she has politicized her office to investigate me as her opponent.
00:05:44.020And she's used taxpayer dollars, and she's used taxpayer dollars actually reserved to the attorney general's office to weaponize her office against her political opponents to boost herself in the election.
00:05:56.740Well, her wanting to boost herself sounds like a rational motivation.
00:06:04.360Her approach, of course, is questionable.
00:06:07.980Let's talk about as well, where is the Republican Party?
00:06:12.120You are not getting the coverage, and we've gone through the media that you're getting.
00:06:17.860I mean, for you to be in a statistical tie with the incumbent attorney general is amazing, because I don't see a lot of support from the Republican Party for you statewide.
00:06:31.140I just don't, in most cases where we're seeing something like this, there's a lot of money pouring in and a lot of vociferous, loud support from the GOP itself.
00:06:44.880That doesn't seem to be the case in your campaign.
00:06:48.620Well, it's not really the case in the state of Michigan right now.
00:06:53.400Unfortunately, it looks like the National Republican Party is sitting out this election in Michigan, which is unfortunate.
00:07:03.200We certainly would need their help or want their support to come in and run a get-out-the-vote campaign.
00:07:09.780But right now, the National Republican Party is not active in the state of Michigan.
00:07:27.560We are America First candidates out here, many of us in the state of Michigan.
00:07:33.120The governor candidate, the secretary of state candidate, me as the attorney general candidate, we all run on an America First platform endorsed by Donald Trump, and we push that agenda across the state.
00:07:45.840As we say, we bring our brand of conservative politics to the people in Michigan in every event that we go out and do, where we talk to a couple hundred people every night across the state.
00:08:01.900So when you have people who don't like Donald Trump or never Trumpers, that is not a message that resonates with those people within the Republican Party.
00:08:09.900I think at some point, you have to say, the hell with them.
00:08:12.680I mean, if they've decided they don't like Donald Trump and they don't like America First, maybe somebody should ask them, what would they put first if not America?
00:08:22.340Maybe they would like to express themselves about what is their agenda.
00:08:43.440Well, you have the America First portion of the party, like myself, and the people who really consider themselves the old guard, George W. Bush-type candidates.
00:08:59.920Those are the people on the other side of the party.
00:09:02.880So, you know, we're trying to find a way to bring unity to that group.
00:09:08.020But the reality is you have either America First candidates right now running for office or you have socialist Marxist Democrats running for office who don't care about bringing down the crime rate.
00:09:22.280They don't care that we have a failing election system.
00:09:25.120They don't care that we have a failing education system.
00:09:28.220My opponent came out recently and said she wants to put a drag queen in every school, in every classroom.
00:09:36.380She said, I think drag queens are great.
00:10:32.560Shouldn't it absolutely drive absolutely bat nuts every Michiganer who cares anything about schools, about children's health?
00:10:46.520I mean, when you say it doesn't resonate, are you kidding me?
00:10:50.760There should be an explosion in Michigan over this outrage.
00:10:53.700But, of course, I don't understand why Michigan has accepted all of the irregularities in their elections over the years.
00:11:00.540I don't understand why in the world they would tolerate this kind of an attorney general.
00:11:07.240I don't understand why they don't just put you on their shoulders and carry you over the finish line into the election as the new attorney general of Michigan.
00:11:19.400That's a great question that we ask every day of the Republican Party.
00:11:24.980But what I can tell you is we've knocked over 500,000 doors so far in this campaign.
00:11:31.600And when we knock the doors on these suburban middle-aged households, the people who say that they abandoned Donald Trump in the last election,
00:11:42.320I can tell you that when we talk about the issues of the failed education system, the high crime rate, drag queens in every classroom, and the lack of parental rights right now, people are outraged.
00:11:56.440And I can tell you that they are moving away from the Democratic Party back to the Republican Party.
00:12:01.120Well, you know, if that—I'm not sure about those people, frankly, who would have moved away from Donald Trump because he was a mean tweeter.
00:12:11.540And you watch this impaired puppet president in the White House and what he has done to the economy, he has done to the border, what he has done with the crime rates across the country.
00:12:25.100How could anyone in their right mind be a Democrat?
00:13:07.960Well, you know, it's—you know, I think we're going to see that support.
00:13:13.300I just picked up the endorsement of Fight to Life.
00:13:17.660I think they got into the race a little bit late, but they are now here nevertheless.
00:13:21.900So we do see those typical stalwarts within the Republican Party coming on board, which is important, obviously.
00:13:30.860But this is—what's so unbelievable about this, Lou, is this is a race that if all Republicans were united and got behind our America First candidates today, invested their money in this race, we would run away with this race and win by 10, 12 points.
00:13:49.980But it just goes to show you that some people aren't always interested in actually beating Democrats, right?
00:14:00.800But it's up to candidates and the campaigns and the party, the Republican Party in this case, both in the state and nationally, to say the hell with what is.
00:14:11.220Let's talk about what will be and why you're the right guy to lead the state forward.
00:14:17.360It is, to me, a straightforward thing.
00:14:23.120Are you better off under Biden and the Dems or during the presidency of Donald J. Trump and the America First policies that you champion in the state of Michigan?
00:14:35.040If anybody's stupid enough to choose the first part of that answer, then I don't—you're never going to get that vote anyway.
00:14:42.360But people need to awaken to what you stand for and what America First stands for.
00:14:49.600And, by the way, I just got to ask you this.
00:14:52.000Did Biden's hate-filled speech make any difference to the people of Michigan?
00:14:57.280Do they still claim—do the Democrats in the state of Michigan still claim Joe Biden is one of their own as he stood there like a demon in front of that red and black background using two U.S. Marines as props?
00:15:11.420Did that work for the people of Michigan?
00:15:14.420Because if it did, Michigan is a lost place.
00:15:17.700I don't think it did work for them, but I can tell you the Democratic leaders in the state of Michigan certainly rejoiced with that speech.
00:15:49.800And they think it's going to bring Democrats out to the polls in November.
00:15:53.500Well, I saw one article that said something about you had a frog on some piece of literature or something, and that apparently is a white supremacist symbol of some sort.
00:16:04.880Tell us about that and how a frog came to get on some of your campaign literature and what in the world would it mean anyway?
00:16:13.640Well, it wasn't on any campaign literature.
00:16:15.500It was actually just a meme that some supporter created, which had our names on it, and as a result, guilt by association.
00:16:25.180But I have no idea who the frog is or how that frog is somehow associated with any one white supremacist or not.
00:16:34.700But it just proves the point that no matter what you do or what you do every day or who you talk to, at some point, the Democrats will accuse us of being white supremacists.
00:16:46.560Well, why don't we accuse them of what they are?
00:16:49.300They are lying, filthy liars, and they've got to be stopped now.
00:16:57.880The Marxist Dems are leading this president.
00:17:00.600The Marxist Dems are leading the Democrat Party.
00:17:02.920And if people right now, if the state and the condition of this nation cannot understand that after six years of political persecution of Donald Trump and not so much as a traffic ticket has been unearthed, yet they call him the liar, even though four consecutive FBI directors have been caught lying to the American people, lying to the U.S. Congress,
00:17:28.540We have agent after agent after agent who have been part of a conspiracy to overthrow the president of the United States.
00:17:38.660They've tried to frame him from the moment they went after his national security advisor, General Michael Flynn, in July and August of 2016.
00:17:48.380And two impeachments, a special counsel, three years of FBI investigation, and now Mar-a-Lago.
00:17:58.000Somebody has to have a picture drawn for them of who these people are?
00:18:03.000These are craven, corrupt agents and the FBI.
00:18:08.600Their officials are the scum of the earth.
00:18:11.660And there is no question that Bill Barr changed history when he refused, knowing that former Vice President Joe Biden was lying in the second presidential debate about Russian disinformation, his son's laptop, and its incriminating evidence within those contents.
00:18:31.660It is outrageous to hear this nonsense.
00:18:36.680This country has got it right in front of their face, the evidence, the truth, and they want to pretend that somebody puts a frog on a tweet or whatever that was.
00:18:50.660And it's just absolutely infuriating to me to watch the Republican Party not support you.
00:18:57.880So, what, have you called Ronna McDaniel, the chair, who, by the way, lost the last election, but only through the mercy of Donald Trump is she still the RNC chair, but it looks like she's trying to lose another election.
00:19:42.980Yeah, that's a huge issue right now in the state of Michigan.
00:19:45.760Listen, our state legislature, which is Republican-controlled, has put forth 30 bills, at least 30 bills since the last election, trying to clean up issues within our election system, and everyone has been vetoed.
00:20:02.760But the bigger problem, really, is that our state laws, years ago, turned over all control of our statewide election to one single person, which is the Secretary of State.
00:20:20.560We need to change the way we run elections in this state, because when you give all the power to a corrupt Marxist like our Secretary of State, you will see that elections will and have been and will continue to be subverted.
00:20:36.260We need to change that, and we just don't have people with the integrity or the strength right now or the leadership to actually come out and make big changes.
00:20:51.400Even if you're only campaigning for the job, you're the guy who has to lead.
00:20:55.420And accepting this is the wrong answer, certainly, for any Michigan who cares about their state and this country.
00:21:07.920I mean, man, you're describing Michigan as if it has just rolled over and is playing dead on the issue of electoral integrity, on the issues that are going to shape our future.
00:21:18.360America first means America first and putting up with this nonsense, like paying more for gasoline and food, hyperinflation, mandating mass and vaccine mandates, which you fought against admirably, lying, corrupt leaders throughout our federal government.
00:21:38.560I mean, good Lord, the Dems are trying to destroy America.
00:21:44.300They are, and no one in Michigan has fought harder than I have regarding election integrity.
00:21:49.820I've been on the front lines since November 5th, really, 2020.
00:21:56.880I've been the voice and the face of the election fight in Michigan, and you see what's happened to me.
00:22:03.140Every single day, you will read an article put out as if it's new news re-upped by the corrupt media in Michigan, claiming that there were...
00:22:14.300some type of felony violations, it's all total nonsense, none of it is true, the garbage they put out.
00:22:22.100They know it's fake news, but they run these types of articles to benefit Democrats.
00:22:29.000So you see, in Michigan, if you put up this fight, if you stand for law and order, if you stand for election integrity and the Constitution,
00:22:38.100the Democrats will try to destroy you and burn you to the ground.
00:22:43.260You knew what they were going to do when you ran, when you decided to run.
00:22:47.280And one thing that isn't acceptable, one thing that certainly is not acceptable, just because you're being assailed right now,
00:22:54.500you knew you would be assailed, you have to bring that issue, every one of those issues, to the fore.
00:23:02.140And we're going to be glad to talk to you every week, if necessary, between now and the time you get elected in November.
00:23:08.960But give these people in Michigan a chance to see what a real leader looks like, and that's you.
00:23:16.120How's the Secretary of State race running? How's the Governor's race running there?
00:23:20.700They're all running probably about, if you believe these polls, about minus 11, minus 12 in favor of the Democrats.
00:23:28.280I sure wouldn't want to believe them if I were running and had a minus 11 and a minus 12.
