The Great America Show - The Great America Sunday Show： October 19, 2025

00:00:00.000 hello everybody and welcome to the great america show great to have you with us on this beautiful

00:00:06.180 day in america america is so back you want to know how i know because barack hussein obama is

00:00:13.420 coming out of whatever hole whatever closet he's been hiding in to record commercials for none

00:00:20.100 other than gavin newsom and you're never gonna believe what he's accusing the republicans of

00:00:26.460 this time stealing elections take a listen california the whole nation is counting on you

00:00:33.620 democracy is on ballot november 4th republicans want to steal enough seats in congress to rig the

00:00:39.340 next election and wield unchecked power for two more years with prop 50 you can stop republicans

00:00:45.800 in their tracks prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field preserves independent

00:00:51.820 redistricting over the long term and lets the people decide return your ballot today vote yes on

00:00:58.220 50. i couldn't tell in that in that video i'm gonna have to go re-watch it later if he was sitting with

00:01:05.820 his knee crossed at the the other knee you know like women sit with their with their legs crossed as he 0.95

00:01:10.220 usually does can you imagine he comes out here and he does a commercial for gavin newsom with a straight

00:01:14.680 face this idiot that the republicans are going to steal an election where were you in 2020 barack 0.96

00:01:21.100 were you in on that coup to steal the 2020 election for president trump because i know you were in on it

00:01:27.560 in 2016 when you try to frame michael flynn when you illegally wiretapped president trump and trump tower

00:01:33.940 when you're all in on the trump russia p-tape so it's kind of funny that you want to come out here and

00:01:41.840 talk about stealing elections but the truth of the matter is is the republicans have been doing such a good job

00:01:46.940 in some aspects the other aspects you hear me talk about here quite often but i think the republicans

00:01:53.160 and i did a massive show on this last night are doing such a good job at messaging right now

00:01:58.780 through this government shutdown that they don't need to steal elections

00:02:03.880 don't take my word for it let's take cnn's harry enton who says the republicans are in deep deep

00:02:10.980 due to come the midterm elections okay so you know if you go back six months ago you go back

00:02:16.620 to april cape baldwin what were we looking at well we were looking at the democrats with a very clear

00:02:21.940 shot of taking control of the u.s house of representatives according to the calci prediction

00:02:25.780 market odds we saw them in an 83 percent chance but those odds have gone plummeting down now we're

00:02:31.700 talking about just a 63 percent chance while the gop's chances up like a rocket up like gold up from 17

00:02:38.280 to now a 37 chance so we'll look like a pretty clear democrat likely democratic win in the house

00:02:45.180 come next year has become much closer to a toss-up at this point although still slightly leaning

00:02:50.160 democratic what's changed what are you seeing okay what has changed well why don't we just take a look

00:02:54.040 at the national picture first take a look at voters and how they're feeling about things and we can take

00:02:59.020 a look at the generic congressional ballot and i want to take a look and compare it to 2017 2018 right

00:03:04.300 because that's sort of the baseline that was of course the first trump term

00:03:07.300 that was where democrats are sort of keeping pace you go back to april look at the generic

00:03:11.360 congressional ballot what you see you see plus three democrats in 2025 in april you see plus three

00:03:16.660 democrats back in april of 2017 now jump over to this side of the screen what happens well the

00:03:21.620 democrats are no longer keeping pace with the pace that they were setting back in 2017 2018

00:03:27.460 you look back in 2017 you saw that the democrats had leaped up to an eight-point advantage i remember

00:03:33.760 covering this i remember a lot of folks including myself saying you know what republicans look pretty

00:03:38.340 decent right now in terms of the fact that they had the house they had the senate they had the

00:03:41.720 presidency but things were likely going to flip and i was looking for the same signs this year the bottom

00:03:46.600 line is it hasn't happened kate ball when it hasn't happened democrats have stayed basically steady they

00:03:51.500 have fallen off the pace democrats were way out ahead back in 2017 on the generic congressional ballot

00:03:58.300 and now we're basically looking at democrats ahead but again they are so far in back of the pace that

00:04:04.320 they set back there and so i think what a lot of folks are seeing folks like myself are saying wait a

00:04:08.980 minute given what we might be seeing in redistricting is this plus three going to be enough kate ball

00:04:14.360 that's what i was going to ask one change from that cycle is also this mid-decade redistricting

00:04:20.120 effort that we've been covering so much add that in and what do you get okay so we add that and we take a

00:04:24.800 look at the national picture but then we of course taking a look at the state legislators right they

00:04:29.340 are potentially changing things and there are two things that are going on here first off net mid-decade

00:04:34.340 redistricting gains if both sides max out at this point there are more republican gains possible than

00:04:40.520 democratic gains yes the democrats might try to counter a texas and a california but you go along in the

00:04:46.340 different states and basically democrats run out of room where republicans are able to gain and gain and

00:04:51.640 gain if both sides max out we're probably looking at a gop gain of plus seven house seats that doesn't

00:04:58.440 even take into account the potential gutting of the vra that is right now going to be in front of the

00:05:03.220 supreme court if you add that in you could be looking right back what yes exactly right the voting

00:05:09.140 rights act if you add that in then you could be looking about adding 10 12 15 17 on top of this seven

00:05:17.060 seats so i think a lot of folks like myself are looking at this we're seeing hey wait a minute

00:05:21.040 those national polls are democrats are not gaining the way that we expected then you add in the fact

00:05:25.800 that the state legislators are adding potentially more gop seats like they've already done down in

00:05:30.340 texas like they've done in missouri and then you add in the potential gutting of the vra and all of a

00:05:35.200 sudden it becomes much more difficult for democrats to gain especially given that they are not keeping

00:05:40.120 up with their 2017 2018 pace and as you said that also makes it difficult to compare it to

00:05:45.420 all the past examples in history because this is such a different new landscape it's a

00:05:50.980 different new landscape and we're not quite sure how much democrats will have to be ahead in the

00:05:54.320 national household in order to gain control all right thank you harry thank you so gerrymandering

00:06:00.620 aside is what the democrats are calling it they're losing at every turn you look at the swings

00:06:05.700 democrats from 83 percent down to 63 percent republicans from 17 to 37 americans are tired of the democrats

00:06:14.740 nonsense the government shutdown is still going because the democrats refuse to open up the

00:06:20.500 government because of their illegal funding or if you want to take a look at some individual states

00:06:27.520 on how they're handling their states during the shutdown the state of oregon which is run by marxist

00:06:34.420 of course is on track to spend 500 million dollars more this year on a program that includes free health

00:06:40.640 benefits for illegal aliens and they're spending more than that on that program than on their own police

00:06:47.720 budget according to the state reports the healthier oregon program also known as hop and their budget is

00:06:54.640 currently set at 1.3 billion dollars the program was launched in 2022 and he's seen a rise of over a

00:07:00.660 thousand percent since it was launched meanwhile the oregon state police have a budget of just over

00:07:06.980 700 million dollars now what's this program used for well according to their website starting on july 1st

00:07:16.940 of 2023 immigration and citizenship status no longer affects whether someone qualifies for the oregon

00:07:24.220 health plan in other words we're paying for illegals to get health care so there's no hyperbole about it 0.99

00:07:33.020 this is what the democrats are fighting for this is what the democrats have been fighting for they don't care

00:07:39.600 about each and every single one of us they care about catering and and bowing down to the illegal migrants 1.00

00:07:46.940 who come into this country and reap the benefits that we pay for that the u.s citizens pay for 1.00

00:07:54.020 imagine that this is what we're paying for and the democrats have absolutely no shame in it we're

00:08:03.620 going to talk with mark mitchell of rasmussen in just a few moments uh to get his take on what the

00:08:07.980 polling shows on his end uh but first let's get to some news and some of the headlines uh that are

00:08:14.520 making news today president trump says he's ramping up the investigation into joe biden and his

00:08:23.640 auto pen scandal that's right joe biden's not safe take a listen uh and by the way that auto pen thing

00:08:30.220 is under serious investigation just this i don't think you care because you're from argentina you

00:08:35.220 couldn't care less about that but i just want to say because i do the weave you know the weave

00:08:39.920 cover a lot of different subjects uh but the uh the people that are involved in that auto pen scam

00:08:47.200 because he barely signed anything i mean this guy i don't know how he can be president he barely

00:08:51.920 signed it but the only thing we can find for sure is that he signed hunter's python his uh pardon

00:08:57.520 hunter's python i like that that's a combination so so um we're going to work very much with

00:09:04.340 the president the weave for those of you who don't know what it is when president trump

00:09:09.880 goes from one topic to the next to come back to the next one keep everybody on their toes

00:09:14.220 now this all comes as a grand jury met today and convened to consider charges against john

00:09:19.880 bolton over his mishandling of classified materials president trump's former national

00:09:24.400 security advisor transmitted classified emails over a private server and they were intercepted by a

00:09:30.120 hostile foreign country and their spy service according to the great work of the new york times

00:09:36.380 bolton is reportedly under investigation for violating the espionage act the wheels of justice

00:09:42.360 folks on some aspects of crime are starting to turn we're going to take a quick break here on the

00:09:47.940 other side of this quick break we're going to be joined by my good friend the great mark mitchell

00:10:18.080 favorite guests here on the great america show the great preeminent pollster for rasmussen reports

00:10:22.260 mark mitchell mark i don't know if you caught my intro or if the audience if they tuned in or out

00:10:27.060 but i want to play this clip again from barack hussein obama talking about prop 50 in california

00:10:32.140 and the republicans gerrymandering imagine that obama king gerrymander talking about gerrymandering

00:10:39.440 california the whole nation is counting on you democracy is on ballot november 4th republicans

00:10:45.740 want to steal enough seats in congress to rig the next election and wield unchecked power for two more

00:10:51.060 years with prop 50 you can stop republicans in their tracks prop 50 puts our elections back on a level

00:10:58.440 playing field preserves independent redistricting over the long term and lets the people decide

00:11:03.740 return your ballot today vote yes on 50

00:11:07.100 mark do the republicans really need gerrymandering to steal elections as barry says

00:11:13.780 don't get me started on gerrymandering the problem with this is that like there's gerrymandering should

00:11:21.140 probably be plan e plan a should just be like govern well pass good laws and uh you know people

00:11:28.260 might not like to hear that but republicans use like literally any excuse possible uh to prevent

00:11:34.020 changing the status quo and here's the thing i mean look at california prop 50 is going to pass

00:11:38.600 i have not seen it down in any polling and i really don't know why they have barack obama uh cutting uh

00:11:44.860 ads about this because it is if if it's what democrats want it will pass in california and and this comes

00:11:51.560 back to like you look at the harry enton clip and everybody's looking at that election and it's all these

00:11:56.640 like rule changes it's all these non-democratic things it's like oh well the maps in our favor

00:12:01.060 this time oh we're going to be able to squeeze a few more seats out of texas well no how about pass

00:12:06.560 voter id how about like arrest some people like how about do what republicans were put in office to do

00:12:12.780 and the thing is is that they can't because they don't have the votes and because why and it's the

00:12:18.080 special interests still control the republican party so how do they get around that how do they get

00:12:23.180 around to the the point of getting the votes to to make these rules permanent because i understand

00:12:30.200 exactly what you're saying the gerrymandering could just be undone with another democrat

00:12:34.040 governor and you know they do it and i don't call it gerrymandering it's redistricting when the

00:12:38.980 democrats do it it's gerrymandering because they'll draw their ridiculously oblong you know districts

00:12:44.200 that don't make any sense at all the republicans are merely doing it for citizenship changes and

00:12:49.060 and population changes uh how do we get the republican legislators to make this so that it's

00:12:56.180 permanent i mean i just until you see the donors of the republican party change or until things get

00:13:02.480 worse listen i don't want to be a doomer and everybody's going to call me a black pillar and

00:13:05.700 a doomer i'm looking forward to november 26 and it's like most of the things that harry enton said

00:13:10.540 were absolutely 100 correct yes the democrats are leading on the generic ballot but no it's not by that

00:13:16.220 much yes the map favors republicans they could flip a lot more seats yes republicans could produce more

00:13:22.360 seats and redistricting like all of these things are positive yes maybe they'll arrest act blue yes

00:13:27.840 maybe trump will have more successes maybe the economy will turn around there's a lot of reasons to be

00:13:32.240 hopeful but what i see and the writing on the wall is that 26 is not the only election that matters

00:13:38.200 and in the grand scheme of things the republicans have basically i think a major problem with

00:13:44.260 being relevant um being relevant and it's like okay well you know just doing these things is going

00:13:49.860 to hurt long term now i look we polled on gerrymandering and when we gave an example of illinois where

00:13:55.540 it's like republicans have 45 of the representation but only 17 of the seats everybody says it was like

00:14:02.060 57 to 21 said yes this is a threat to the this is non-democratic when we do this it undermines

00:14:08.300 democracy but then when we ask well who's more likely to gerrymander you know who they say

00:14:12.780 they say republicans by five points and why is that well it's because republicans are the ones

00:14:19.080 that are being accused of being gerrymanderers right now so that's the thing it's like yes you

00:14:24.220 for decades have let the democrats do this and now it's nice that you're playing smash mouth but it

00:14:30.300 doesn't necessarily mean it's going to work for you and the the ultimate problem is i've been asking for a

00:14:36.700 very long time like republicans use the nuclear option democrats say they're going to do it

00:14:41.240 use the nuclear option pass laws govern well you know what john thune actually came out and made a

00:14:47.260 a post i forget where it was where he says basically the math's not there and what that means is they

00:14:53.760 agree it's a good idea but they don't have enough republican votes even to take away that rule in the

00:14:59.140 senate and so republicans are not interested in doing what's necessary in order to pass the laws that

00:15:04.620 will codify trump's executive orders and fix the country so like no i'm not going to be happy when

00:15:10.080 everybody's like oh they're going to gerrymander an extra five seats or whatever it's disgusting

00:15:14.320 so why doesn't john thune go nuclear and expose those senators who want to be rhinos and those

00:15:22.440 senators who don't want to support the america first agenda why is he giving them a free pass

00:15:27.060 you know they will talk big about supporting maga go back and look at the november 12 speech that

00:15:33.280 mike johnson gave in congress he said he was going to hang a maga banner from the halls of congress so

00:15:38.920 they will talk big but because they are invested in a system that doesn't work for most americans

00:15:46.120 they will not get their hair must they will not threaten the status quo and so no they're not

00:15:52.580 allowed to speak ill of other people in a way that sort of gives up the game john like that sort of

00:15:58.080 give up the game everybody looks at republicans they're like golly gee why don't they do things

00:16:03.000 that'll fix the country well it's because like they're bought and paid for some of them by people 0.61

00:16:07.620 that don't want the system to change and so for john to pick these people out and shine a laser at them

00:16:13.160 that's uh that's too much you're not going to do it so then pretty much what you're telling me is is

00:16:20.820 we're not going to get any change it's going to be business as usual and you know absolutely nothing

00:16:27.240 changes you know the republicans could change the redraw the lines and it's going to come right

00:16:32.420 back when whenever the democrats take over and they'll redraw them the way they want to draw them

00:16:36.440 yeah i think well i think it's like republicans just got the biggest mandate they've had in a while

00:16:42.880 like let's acknowledge and they're producing less legislation than they have in a while like let's

00:16:48.780 acknowledge and america is very committed to an agenda more than it has in a very very very long time

00:16:55.860 and yet very little is being done about that agenda other by anybody other than trump and so

00:17:01.920 i can only just conjecture about what the future looks like which is americans are still going to

00:17:08.320 be let down by their legislators to a point where the legislators are incapable of doing anything about

00:17:13.240 that again and it's because we've pushed the youngest generation into the arms of democrat socialists

00:17:17.780 that's the problem yeah i think you're absolutely right uh speaking of of the gerrymandering and what

00:17:23.980 they call race bait voting uh districts uh just moments ago out of the supreme court katanji brown

00:17:30.460 jackson comparing black people to disabled people take let's take a listen i guess i'm thinking of it

00:17:39.120 uh of the fact that remedial action absent discriminatory intent is really not a new idea

00:17:47.240 in the civil rights laws and and my kind of paradigmatic example of this is something like

00:17:54.420 the ada congress passed the americans with disabilities act against the backdrop of a world

00:18:01.600 that was generally not accessible to people with disabilities and so it was discriminatory in effect

00:18:09.080 because these folks were not able to access these buildings and it didn't matter whether the

00:18:15.960 person who built the building or the person who owned the building intended for them to be

00:18:22.540 exclusionary that that's irrelevant congress said the facilities have to be made equally open

00:18:28.620 to people with disabilities if readily possible i guess i don't understand why that's not what's

00:18:35.860 happening here the idea in section two is that we are responding to current day manifestations

00:18:43.220 of past and present decisions that disadvantage minorities and make it so that they don't have

00:18:50.680 equal access to the voting uh system right they're they're disabled in fact we use the word 0.54

00:18:57.740 disable in milligan we say that's a way in which you see that these processes are not equally open

00:19:05.200 the only thing i took from that in between all the blather and nonsense that you put in there was

00:19:11.780 that pragmatic john it was paradigmatic or what it was i mean this is a woman who's a supreme court justice

00:19:18.140 mark yeah what the hell but again it's like by a technical rule change the republicans are going to

00:19:29.780 benefit probably and uh and fine like okay that's great it's just not what they were voted in for

00:19:39.060 no but to hear a supreme court just i mean this is a high court mark it's gotten to be like and it's

00:19:46.560 it's all facets of the government i mean the congress and and the senate the house and the senate rather

00:19:51.620 are like a daycare facility for elderly people falling down and i'm not even saying it's a joke to

00:19:58.820 elderly people it's sad to see what we've got over there people come in walkers and wheelchairs and

00:20:04.500 um you had joe biden falling down the stairs of air force one and now you've got the supreme court

00:20:11.480 ketanji brown jackson i mean i don't even know where this woman came out of did she go to college like 1.00

00:20:16.620 the stuff that comes out of these people's mouths this was a court i mean even back in the day when you

00:20:22.060 had the democrats on the court none of them spoke the way that these new hires are speaking

00:20:28.700 well as long as it sounds intelligent the logic i guess doesn't matter and you're spot on we saw

00:20:35.680 the house go to a vote and like 30 of them had to ride that subway car 100 yards because they

00:20:40.940 couldn't walk far enough i mean it was and then like i just like how are these people going to

00:20:45.780 understand the challenges we face because you know james comer brought all those tech companies before

00:20:51.520 congress i think basically three people in congress understand the extent to which the internet is

00:20:56.780 radicalizing people and which platforms are involved and how it's done and these are existential

00:21:01.340 problems because now we have a bunch of violent leftists and ketanji brown jackson is like i guess

00:21:07.960 fulfilling her long lost acting career on the side hustle you know but like that's what i think she's

00:21:14.720 involved in right so uh again the democrats don't care uh she was very clearly a dei hire and americans

00:21:22.740 actually thought that we polled on it at the time because it was all about checking boxes and here

00:21:27.340 we are uh basically every institution has been overrun by people who don't care about objective

00:21:33.000 outcomes yeah and it's it's whatever box they're going to check whatever you know they have to do

00:21:39.320 but it's nice to see that the republicans are united at least on some things like this redistricting i

00:21:45.100 you get them to disagree on just about everything so it's nice to see that they're at least some

00:21:49.700 what united um on all of this i want to get your take mark on john bolton maybe the next domino to

00:21:57.680 fall inside of the um uh the cookie jar of folks who need to be brought to the hills of justice

00:22:05.920 do you think that this is finally the start of indictments for the criminals

00:22:11.960 maybe probably not though like i just i i hear there were in panel grand juries and i guess this

00:22:21.240 is probably like one of the i don't really understand the the the processes behind that

00:22:26.180 but we had a legal system that was unwilling to prosecute these people and we literally had to

00:22:31.540 change an attorney general in order to get a comey indictment right and i look at john bolton and i don't

00:22:37.280 know what happens beyond the scenes but you have to imagine that this guy has made himself probably

00:22:42.320 the most salient target because nobody likes him the left doesn't even like him they just pretend

00:22:47.180 they like him to get trump that's basically what it is i'm sure he's like a profiteer and everybody

00:22:52.560 knows behind the scenes that he's like the most scummiest person and so okay fine another shoe drops

00:22:58.420 but it's like where's this wave of things where's this john let's just step back 67 percent supported

00:23:07.280 draining the swamp the last time we pulled it we've been hearing about that phrase for 10 years now

00:23:12.200 yeah as the swamp and drained no

00:23:15.300 so you're just as pessimistic as i am which is dangerous that people aren't going to like this but

00:23:21.740 um you know i don't know i i start i'm i'm on the edge now where i'm starting to feel like things

00:23:27.040 are starting to turn because we're getting indictments now are we getting the indictments

00:23:32.060 that we necessarily want and the ones that we necessarily need no but are we getting something

00:23:36.700 yes uh if in the next six months or so we don't get superseding indictments on other things that

00:23:42.940 are going on you know i'll jump more on the pessimism wagon with you um the thing that scares me is you

00:23:50.400 hear steven miller and some of the other people saying well it's an ongoing conspiracy right so

00:23:56.000 there's no statute limitations on the uh on the charges for these people it's an ongoing conspiracy

00:24:02.120 it's an ongoing conspiracy but my question is is how long are you going to allow the conspiracy to

00:24:06.820 continue before you bring the charges do you bring them in trump's administration or do you bring them

00:24:12.560 now so that you you know you can weave a little bit yeah i mean like wasn't the whole thing with

00:24:18.420 comey they were running out of statutory uh windows so i get like obviously there's part of that

00:24:24.420 but like some of me knows that yeah fine we have another three plus years of trump but the window

00:24:29.780 is closing because i think political capital is going to dwindle yeah um as well and i mean again

00:24:36.620 i just look at it and it's it's like tish james has she been indicted yet she is overtly and brazenly

00:24:44.060 pursued somebody for the fraud she herself was committing yeah and harboring felons and

00:24:49.820 like profiting multiple ways from and what is it going to take yeah and so if again we can't and

00:24:57.040 okay you call that pessimism i call it realism john because i think the biggest enemy of progress is

00:25:02.620 copium and republicans have fueled themselves with copium for a really really really long time

00:25:07.640 uh two weeks two more weeks two more weeks how many years do we have to hear about two more weeks

00:25:12.840 well guess what there's a time period where two more weeks doesn't work anymore and that's when the

00:25:17.400 democrats take over the house and freaking impeach trump like that's you know what i mean that's

00:25:22.620 going to happen again so yeah i mean i'm yes i'm not gonna i'm not going to cherry pick things that

00:25:29.080 make everybody feel good it's like okay trump's approval rating is higher than any president going

00:25:35.300 back to first term obama at at this point in his term it's higher than any of them right now it's i think

00:25:41.040 it's plus two or plus three today so yeah there's good news right direction polling is at 44 percent

00:25:45.840 that means people are looking at things and saying oh it's all it's all good it's all going

00:25:50.780 in the right direction and i'm just saying like where like where are the details like where are the

00:25:55.260 receipts yeah yeah i'm afraid you're you're pretty right on that

00:25:59.140 not to do a little weaving here but mark but just moments ago we had a report now that

00:26:09.580 a judge has temporarily blocked the trump administration from firing federal workers during this government

00:26:14.920 shutdown u.s district judge susan ilston a clinton appointee issuing a temporary restraining order

00:26:20.640 stopping them from firing any federal workers uh i mean this is just another marxist rogue judge

00:26:28.140 who's standing in the way if you don't want them fired open the government back up and let them do the

00:26:33.900 process uh how long are we going to talk about judges too john yeah like because there's no there's

00:26:42.120 no repercussions for these people mark they're like they can do whatever they want with the exception of

00:26:46.520 like committing a capital crime and literally get away with it i mean even some capital crimes i guess

00:26:53.060 they've been getting away with some of these people i think are definitely guilty of treason with the

00:26:58.460 cover-ups that they've done for the obama biden administration and even going back to 2016 on

00:27:04.360 president trump there's literally no repercussions for anything they do because every single bar

00:27:09.840 association is run by a democrat john why don't we impeach them who are you going to get with the

00:27:17.560 intestinal fortitude to do that i mean congress just impeach them yes we was going to vote we should we

00:27:24.560 should haul these judges before congress and impeach them and yes i think you need a conviction in the

00:27:29.280 senate isn't that how the process works we won't get that but just speech them like we impeach donald 0.83

00:27:35.660 trump the president of the united states over a false pretense about a phone call with zielinski

00:27:40.900 impeach these judges yeah and make the case yeah you've got guys like thomas massey who are like just

00:27:49.160 totally trump deranged who literally wouldn't vote to do anything for process so you bring them in front of

00:27:53.740 there and then you embarrass yourself because you don't have the votes because there are weak-kneed 0.82

00:27:57.860 republicans i mean you look at like marjorie taylor green right and i see everyone posting on twitter

00:28:03.940 about marjorie taylor green right now and we found out we finally figured out who she was well i've got

00:28:09.200 news for you go back and look at 2023 when lou dobbs absolutely chewed her out for becoming a rhino that's 1.00

00:28:15.520 2023 and i still have the text messages on my phone mark from her communications director telling me

00:28:21.380 that was so wrong what lou just did to her he needs to apologize and i never even wound up telling lou

00:28:27.260 that she demanded an apology because lou would have doubled down and not issued an apology so i didn't

00:28:32.360 want to cause any drama or anything like that we knew who she was back then now she comes out marjorie 0.90

00:28:37.500 taylor green and says no we can't deport all of them i'm a construction business owner myself pretty

00:28:43.000 much admitting that she employs illegal aliens uh i'll see if we can get the clip but pretty much i'm a

00:28:49.820 construction owner myself i want to be real with y'all i want to be real with y'all we can't deport

00:28:54.760 them all we can't get them all meanwhile just months ago it was a completely different thing so

00:28:59.900 who's paying this woman that's weird that's really weird you know i would have said about her i wasn't 0.89

00:29:07.740 aware of that particular one and so that's a low blow i don't like it but i would have said before

00:29:14.160 that well it's nice that she doesn't unquestioningly support everything that trump does it's nice to

00:29:20.460 have a voice that's willing to be objective and open about things i agree i agree it makes sense

00:29:24.900 but that's not apparently what we're seeing right now no there's a really really stunning video going

00:29:30.360 around on youtube if you're uh some of your older audiences members want to catch up on like what's

00:29:36.340 going on with the zoomers and the kind of news they're consuming and how they think about this trump 0.77

00:29:40.140 administration they go to go to youtube and look up somebody called asmon gold a-s-m-o-n-g-o-l-d

00:29:46.700 he's got a react video reacting to a this is just in the last two or three days reacting to a guy named

00:29:53.560 moist critical who is also a super large uh video game streamer he's got 17 million followers i think

00:30:00.200 asmon gold's probably got four five six million as well across platforms and moist critical first off

00:30:05.920 asmon gold is an independent he's not a republican or conservative even and yet he supports trump

00:30:11.080 because he wanted the accountability that trump was going to bring because a lot of independents

00:30:15.320 people who voted for trump think that the democrats are insane and then what moist critical is ranting

00:30:21.580 about is how brainwashed the right is because they were all like oh let's get trump into office

00:30:27.240 the epstein files the epstein files and then what happened well the rug got pulled they

00:30:31.340 the right was talking about covet vaccine safety for years and years and years trump gets in office

00:30:37.460 and what happens he gets a covet vaccine and everybody's like oh it's fine well there's people

00:30:42.640 are looking at this and saying well it's contradictory it's paradoxical why are there okay maybe we don't

00:30:48.100 have leaks this time but why are people making massive shorts on information before it's publicly

00:30:54.000 available in the bitcoin market and making hundreds of billions of dollars like what about these deals

00:30:58.760 that are happening with the trump administration and and businesses and people that are trump

00:31:04.280 adjacent so these are important questions that the 18 to 29 year olds are asking and this will

00:31:09.280 kill the wind in donald trump sales because these people put him over the finish line and now they're

00:31:15.180 looking around and they're asking where's the mass accountability that you promised and it's not

00:31:19.120 there it's just not in fact they're seeing more of the same many of them here's we got that video

00:31:24.140 from marjorie taylor green just for you in the audience i don't like to make them believe me i

00:31:28.820 want to give them the evidence and give them the receipts as a conservative and as a business owner in

00:31:33.960 the construction industry and as a realist i can say we have to do something about labor and that needs

00:31:41.000 to be a smarter plan than just rounding up every single person and deporting them just like that

00:31:47.700 right so and i'm gonna get pushed back on that but it's i'm just living in reality from here on out

00:31:54.100 yeah and if i'm if anybody's mad at me for saying the truth then i'm sorry marjorie taylor green ladies

00:32:01.480 and gentlemen our next president sorry jd vance um well i mean these people are saying it i go to

00:32:08.880 dinner parties yeah i heard you well by the way i heard you on joe rogan americans don't support that

00:32:14.420 trailer trash now the the thing is mark is that that's fine if that's her position after that this

00:32:20.540 wasn't her position back in may and it was a judicial watch said millions of illegal aliens here in the 0.98

00:32:27.240 united states if they're not deported before the next census count the left gains more house seats

00:32:31.400 and electoral votes purely due to their illegal president presence and then marjorie taylor green 1.00

00:32:38.120 response this is correct we must deport illegal aliens first and foremost and more importantly we 1.00

00:32:44.160 must change the laws to require only american citizens counted in the census so what changed

00:32:50.340 marjorie was it your business books of hiring illegals was it somebody paying you what is it

00:32:57.160 you you'd said mark and i'm gonna push back on you a little bit of this you can't agree with everything

00:33:02.280 100 of president trump says and i agree with you and i don't and you don't and many people don't but

00:33:07.600 this is one fundamental issue mark where if you agree with maga if you are maga you are 100

00:33:13.320 on board with this uh i don't unquestioningly support any politician because i think that

00:33:20.560 what we should be looking out for is the will of the voters who are often misinformed on many things

00:33:25.320 and so sometimes you have to make this decision on principle but i'm a pollster so i make this decision

00:33:30.120 based on polling people and uh yeah the idea that we have illegal immigration everybody agrees that it 0.94

00:33:36.260 was an invasion of the southern border purposely perpetrated by the biden administration uh is not in the

00:33:42.240 best interests of americans that's objectively true and i think it's kind of disingenuous because

00:33:46.900 that treat that tweet with judicial watch when she came out and said that she didn't say that she

00:33:52.140 supported deporting all of them and so she was selectively appearing like she supported the

00:33:58.060 administration when deep down like many republicans she's like well we can't we can't deport them all

00:34:03.040 my my background absolutely she said we must deport illegal aliens first and first first and foremost

00:34:10.320 does that say all i don't know is that illegal aliens is it it's we're deporting illegal aliens now

00:34:17.080 have we deported them all no i i'm just saying that i don't see necessarily full-throated uh you know

00:34:24.900 acknowledgement of the fact that americans by a 55 to 35 margin say they would pick a 100 deportation

00:34:32.640 candidate over a 100 amnesty candidate and i just tweeted this while you were like playing that

00:34:38.180 tape uh this is my this is my opinion about this let's just say you're in construction and you have

00:34:44.460 a business and you you know because of costs have to employ illegal aliens like screw you yeah like go 0.97

00:34:51.880 to jail your company should be arrested because you're breaking the law you're stealing tax dollars

00:34:57.940 from basically hard-working people that don't have the ability to be entrepreneurs like you so no i

00:35:04.040 have no sympathy and it's a bad look no you're absolutely right because you know what and you

00:35:09.220 hear you i've told the story many times i have a lot of friends who own restaurants and they say me oh

00:35:14.040 well i'm gonna have to shut down i said well so be it if it were 20 by the way we didn't have this

00:35:19.040 illegal immigration problem as bad as it is today 25 years ago 26 years ago in the 2000s

00:35:24.540 and restaurants still found a way to make record margin profits building companies still built

00:35:31.220 whatever they had to build i mean go look at the skyline of new york city right uh it wasn't

00:35:36.320 built the skyline of new york city wasn't predominantly built over the last 25 years okay now you do have

00:35:42.060 some new buildings okay um most of those are union built so there's no illegals working there anyway 0.98

00:35:47.700 so uh i don't care and i i don't feel bad because people did it 25 years ago they were able to make

00:35:54.420 business you go out to middle america mark to these farms they're not being run by illegal aliens they're 0.76

00:36:00.480 not run by illegal immigrants okay it's run by hard-working american people so if they're able to

00:36:06.140 do it then so are you and so what you know what if you got to cut your profit margins from a thousand

00:36:10.740 percent to seven hundred percent then so be it if you want to close your doors close your damn doors 0.84

00:36:16.320 all of us mark can't go to work every single day and do everything by the book to then go somewhere

00:36:22.920 and watch somebody else skate under the radar and do illegal things while you and i are doing the right

00:36:28.700 thing and everyone else is doing the right thing and we're paying our taxes and we're not employing 0.92

00:36:32.380 illegal aliens it doesn't you can't there's no double standard there the double standard is for the

00:36:36.900 democrats it's even more perverse john and maybe we'll clip this and put this on my channel too it's

00:36:42.080 making me so mad right now i want to put my fist through the wall sure sure there are construction

00:36:47.240 people sure there are farmers who violate the law and hire legal aliens sure okay but what pisses me off 0.86

00:36:54.700 is that there are many who don't who believe in the country who believe in the rule of law who are

00:36:59.220 trying to do the right thing and you know who they're competing with people like major home builders

00:37:04.820 and people like monsanto and so here's what makes me mad is that these organizations probably employ a

00:37:10.940 massive amount of legal aliens you know laughing in their beers at law-abiding americans who are out 0.83

00:37:17.720 there trying to do the right thing what are they going to do they'll go buy a senator oh we have to push

00:37:23.040 that amnesty bill now when nobody's looking and so it's perverse like these major organizations are

00:37:29.180 putting people who are trying to do the right thing out of business by co-opting their own

00:37:33.820 unrepresentative democracy it's perverse yeah we obviously so you said by a senator apparently

00:37:39.640 congress members are for sale as well as we saw marjorie taylor green change her her position 100

00:37:45.020 percent uh in or 180 degrees in the matter of you know less than six months uh i don't feel bad i really

00:37:52.760 it's hard for me to feel bad when i know that i just paid taxes uh two days ago and the checks i had

00:37:59.140 the right to new york and the checks i had the right to the irs and the federal government it's

00:38:03.320 hard for me to feel bad for anyone knowing that the margins and amount of money these people are making

00:38:09.640 just to save an extra few dollars an hour by not hiring well we can't find people we can't find but

00:38:14.960 that's total nonsense you can find people you find kids who are in high school you find people who are

00:38:20.140 transitioning and you know what to that mark how is it that you can go to any mcdonald's

00:38:24.800 any dunkin donuts any 7-eleven any burger king any taco bell any kfc any uh chick-fil-a any

00:38:32.400 jollobies any popeyes and you have all legal workers okay working fast food joints how is it

00:38:40.340 that you have all legal workers working there but you can't own a restaurant and have all legal workers

00:38:45.940 what's the difference is that one's a corporation and they're mandated to go by the book versus you

00:38:51.560 and joe schmo who are not mandated to go by the book that's my question you can go to a gas station

00:38:56.600 and have a gas station attendant who's on the books as a legal illegal resident you go to any one of

00:39:01.360 these places you find people to go work at dick's sporting goods and target for minimum wage and

00:39:05.760 you're telling me you can't find someone to work in a restaurant for minimum wage plus tips you're a liar

00:39:10.040 yeah selective enforcement undermines our society and that's what happened a lot of people with

00:39:17.000 nods and winks have allowed literally everything to be gamed it's just absolutely perverse you brought

00:39:22.680 up the gas stations there's so much of this that just makes my blood boil and i always wondered like

00:39:27.320 why do so many indian families own gas stations oh no well it turns out there's an sba sba loan program 0.99

00:39:35.180 and what they'll do is that they'll get the loan at a zero to low interest rate own it for a few years sell

00:39:41.120 it to a family member and keep this loan out without you know that's apparently what's going

00:39:46.680 on it's only available to people uh who are immigrants or or whatever so i hear things like

00:39:51.560 this do i know all the details no but it all adds up to a pattern and the the thing that makes me most

00:39:57.320 mad is this argument while americans won't do the work we can't find them oh it's too expensive oh do

00:40:03.080 you want ten dollar avocados and how is it that all these capitalists who support h-1b who support

00:40:11.060 unfettered illegal immigration have never heard of the idea of supply and demand like that's what i

00:40:16.160 don't get yes americans will do the job because you've been subsidizing cheap avocados with legal

00:40:21.980 labor okay let's say you get rid of the illegals now all of a sudden you have to pay more okay well 1.00

00:40:26.820 now avocados are more expensive so people buy less of them then some other thing fills the gap or

00:40:32.880 maybe we grow more avocado farms because they're expensive and there's a that's just how supply

00:40:37.560 and demand works and they won't allow that this country like is an economic superpower we're the

00:40:43.260 best country in the world and you're telling me that without h-1b's we would be unable to staff our 1.00

00:40:48.320 computer engineering jobs i find that a complete bald-faced lie yeah why don't why don't we test it

00:40:55.880 out why don't we test out and see what happens it's nonsense mark i was working since i was 13 years old

00:41:01.720 like so many friends who were working since they were 13 years old the second i was able to find a

00:41:06.440 job mark whether it was scraping gum off the floor i wanted to because i was thirsty to make money and

00:41:11.180 i know there were so many more people out there like me uh who you know who had a passion i had three

00:41:16.660 sisters and uh they couldn't be bothered to get out of bed to go get a job when they were in high 0.99

00:41:21.460 school they were lazier than hell luckily it all worked out for them they all went to great colleges and

00:41:25.900 they're now in uh investment banking i was the uh i guess i was the loser because i was waking up

00:41:31.700 working every summer but yeah there's too many there's plenty of people out there mark there's

00:41:37.260 kids there's young adults there's people who are going through hard times in their life who just got

00:41:41.360 laid off for a job who are in a transition point there's so many people for these people to have to

00:41:46.540 not use the excuse and i don't know what the answer is because i know these people who are doing

00:41:52.640 these jobs these illegals are making really good money i have a friend who owns a restaurant who 0.99

00:41:56.580 pays a dishwasher mark i think 1300 bucks a week cash okay 1300 a week cash to wash dishes in the

00:42:02.980 restaurant a high school kid would do it for half the price on the books i it's it's it's total nonsense

00:42:09.860 yeah i mean it's like go to go to a home depot and just ask the guys like what how much what's your

00:42:15.860 hourly rate just go ask the guys they're gonna say something like you know 15 18 bucks or whatever

00:42:20.240 well it's like what is that before taxes it's a it's a pretty high number for sure and it's like

00:42:26.900 supply and demand john everybody says well like we're not producing there's not enough stem graduates

00:42:34.160 so we have to import the fake ones from india yeah and i say no they say look at our look at our

00:42:40.900 generation they're majoring in gender studies they're they're majoring in psychology things that

00:42:46.700 like don't matter and and i say well you know if there was a very active and aggressive labor market

00:42:52.820 because we didn't have enough stem graduates guess what would happen the price would go up and more

00:42:57.360 people would do it and in a year or two we would have the people we need but the reason people are

00:43:02.280 picking gender studies it's not just because they're all woke and brainwashed they're like well i you

00:43:07.420 know the labor market is completely screwed i might as well do something i like i think there's a huge

00:43:12.260 aspect of that where it's like if there was a massive demand for stem people we would absolutely

00:43:17.480 be able to fill it 100 and what do we do instead we give those slots to foreign students because

00:43:23.700 tuition costs has gotten so high it can only be subsidized by the wealthiest from around the world

00:43:28.380 and so we're just giving those spots away to other people like every part of our entire system is

00:43:33.860 turned into global welfare yeah a lot of folks don't know mark went to the uh the academy he went to

00:43:40.140 annapolis and then he went to an ivy league school mark is uh borderline brilliant um but mark did some

00:43:46.400 sort of job mark tell the audience what what was your job high school college well what bottom of

00:43:51.460 the barrel job were you doing uh at 12 my first job actually i started when i was 11 i think uh was

00:43:59.960 being an umbrella boy at the beach i learned how to work hard for tips customer service because i was

00:44:05.340 saving up for a super nintendo but then i became a beach cleaner and i had to muck out toilet

00:44:10.000 stalls and haul garbage and shovel muscles into into pits and peel a woman uh you know menstrual 1.00

00:44:19.160 products off of ceilings and still like random stuff like that and i could tell you the woman's 1.00

00:44:23.860 bathroom was always way worse than the men's just a little known fact so i was doing that at the tender 0.60

00:44:28.680 age of 13 and uh yeah i believe in a hard work ethic and obviously we aren't instilling that in the youth

00:44:36.180 but it's because they've lost complete hope that the economy has a spot for them half of 18 to 29s

00:44:42.680 don't think that it's possible for everybody who wants a full-time job to have one that's just the

00:44:47.020 situation we're in it's horrifying yeah i think i started work yeah they shouldn't because nobody's

00:44:52.780 telling them they have to i think at 13 years old i was sweeping tennis courts up until i went to college

00:44:57.480 every summer and then i went to college mark i came home and i got a job loading airplanes i mean i was a

00:45:02.880 ramp ramp guy because i was in aviation school and i wanted to get away into the aviation industry

00:45:06.900 and i got hired by delta airlines i think i was making 11 an hour mark to load airplanes i was

00:45:11.880 driving from staten island new york to queens which is la guardia airport i would drive an hour and a

00:45:17.320 half to work an hour and a half home to make 11 an hour okay as a as someone who was pursuing a

00:45:23.640 degree in aeronautical science i mean there's no excuse let me sweat all day long for eight hours out in

00:45:29.740 the summer sun mark in the middle of summer standing on a ramp that's black underneath the

00:45:35.440 bellies of planes that are over a hundred degrees they used to have these planes mcdonald douglas 80s

00:45:40.400 mark i'm not kidding you that the bottom of the plane was probably this hole imagine me sitting

00:45:45.020 underneath the side and you know what i loved it i loved every moment of it because it made me

00:45:49.460 who i am today and the blood sweat and the tears and i'd get under there man i would cry what am i doing

00:45:54.140 here why am i doing this to myself and you know what i made some of the best friends i still have

00:45:58.780 till this day and nobody can tell me that i don't know that i'm just a pretty boy who sits behind a

00:46:04.780 camera and i don't know what it's like to work a real job uh i did worked real jobs most of my

00:46:09.540 entire life so it's it's sad mark that we hit this inception point in america you get the last word

00:46:16.300 here my friend i don't know man i'm so mad i just want to go have a drink uh no it's like well you

00:46:24.800 know again there's positive news like john we didn't even talk about the shutdown two weeks now

00:46:29.840 of a shutdown and donald trump's numbers are actually going up what are they which is well i

00:46:35.080 think today was the net approval of plus two or plus three but we thought i was talking about two weeks

00:46:40.160 ago about how i thought for the first time because of the charlie kirk assassination we might see a

00:46:44.320 right direction number in the 30s because everybody was worried about political violence it's back up to

00:46:50.000 almost 45 today and so when the government shut down and basically people don't care and obviously

00:46:55.360 people are looking at this middle east peace deal and i think he's getting a lot of credit for that

00:46:59.080 but uh i mean i just don't think we're in a situation where the whole political football

00:47:03.660 of shutdown blame matters at all anymore and i've been saying for a long time that people want the

00:47:09.520 government shut down and here we are so finally i feel a little bit validated yeah but if they want to

00:47:14.580 return to the really high numbers you know it's like okay they were talking a really big game about

00:47:20.760 all the evil things they could do to the government when it was shut down and what did we see like a

00:47:25.420 few thousand people point two percent of the federal government workforce and it got blocked by judge

00:47:30.480 that's pretty impotent that's pretty impotent and so i think they need to be more aggressive

00:47:35.300 this is it's like evasive action time the democrats are literally insane and violent they are going to

00:47:42.660 uh when they get into power like all the things i think they're going to use them now because they

00:47:47.160 didn't expect to lose this one and look at where we're at so uh we're in an existential period and

00:47:53.360 we just can't have uh we just can't have losers john yeah you ain't getting an argument out of me
