00:02:30.000They're currently doing a 9 11 memorial.
00:02:33.000They had nice words to say about Charlie Kirk, and I don't know if they've done the memorial for him yet, but I'm sure everyone's going to be talking a bit about it.
00:04:01.000Going on in the world when it comes to cancer, autoimmune disease, and just here to put an end to that as much as I can in my life and through my work.
00:04:07.000So, thank you for having me on the show.
00:04:38.000We've got this from PBS Trump's vow of $5,000 payments to Americans faces bipartisan criticism.
00:04:46.000Luke Rutkowski posting, raising the debt $1.5 trillion is one reason why I'm now thinking about voting Democrats.
00:04:54.000Who the hell ever thought I would say that?
00:04:55.000I wasn't going to vote, but now we might have to, so the country does not go broke.
00:05:00.000I just want to say my response to Luke was, I don't think supporting open borders and sex changes for kids is an appropriate response to overspending.
00:05:09.000But I do want to stress the Democrats are committed to substantially more spending than Republicans.
00:05:15.000So if your argument is that Republicans are bad and Democrats are worse, you're going to vote for the Democrats who are worse.
00:05:40.000I mean, look, as far as Luke's tweet, I mean, I don't know what he's thinking because if you want to do a protest vote or not vote, that is one thing.
00:05:51.000But voting for the Democrats guarantees more spending.
00:05:55.000Or at the very least, that's the party that will spend more.
00:05:58.000I know Donald Trump has spent a boatload of money.
00:06:12.000But that doesn't change the fact that if the Democrats get control of Congress and the White House, obviously not this fall, the White House, but if they get control of Congress and the White House, they're going to do way more spending.
00:06:26.000They would push through Medicaid for all.
00:06:28.000They would push through all sorts of benefits for certain groups and stuff that'll cost way more.
00:06:33.000Right now, our spending is the vast majority of it is on Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.
00:06:39.000And Social Security doesn't just go to people that are over 65.
00:06:43.000There are all kinds of programs that are.
00:06:45.000Are under the Social Security banner basically.
00:06:48.000You're talking about half the budget, right?
00:06:50.000There are people out there that think that we spend more money on the military than we do on any kind of social services.
00:06:57.000We have the most progressive tax system in the world.
00:07:00.000We spend half of our budget on some kind of social services and we can't afford to spend more.
00:07:07.000So voting for Democrats because Donald Trump is going to spend money, that's not a solution.
00:07:14.000Protest and talk smack about Trump for spending money all you want.
00:08:07.000I mean, that's the thing, like promising the five large to everybody, like whether you think it's a good idea or not, do we think it's going to happen?
00:08:14.000He also promised in the past couple of days that the war with Iran would end after the election and that gas would be down under $2.
00:08:21.000I mean, today I had to use my little grocery store discount.
00:08:24.000Discount card to get 70 cents off, and it was still $3.49.
00:08:27.000So, you know, what are we even talking about?
00:08:29.000Like, that's the thing that drives me nuts is that a lot of the stuff Trump says.
00:08:33.000Now, I'm not a huge fan of the, you know, $5,000.
00:08:35.000I wasn't a big fan of Biden's COVID 2000, and I don't even remember how many 2000s he sent out.
00:08:40.000I mean, I cashed the checks, but I, you know, I didn't like it.
00:08:45.000I thought it was a bad plan because we don't even know what the interest rate on this cash necessarily is.
00:08:49.000Like you said, it's like trillions and trillions of whatever more dollars down the road.
00:08:54.000But that's the thing that drives me nuts is like, It turns out that the presidential promises are always fake promises, no matter who the president is.
00:09:03.000But if that's the case, then that brings up the other problem.
00:09:06.000So if he would do it and that's bad, so then you don't want to be a part of that.
00:09:10.000But then if he doesn't do it, but he's lying just because, then that's another problem.
00:09:15.000Well, is it a lie or is it something that's just not going to be able to happen?
00:09:20.000I mean, I do think Trump's done a great job, frankly, with the immigration situation.
00:09:25.000The border crossings are down to zero.
00:09:29.000You know, I'm hearing sob stories on NPR and in the New York Times every morning about people who have been deported and now their lives are messed up.
00:09:35.000And it's like, well, you could have taken the money and the free flight home and then you could have had time to pack and you wouldn't be in this problem.
00:09:42.000But, but I, so I think he's done a great job with that.
00:09:45.000But, you know, there's other stuff that I'm not a fan of.
00:09:47.000But then again, like when are you ever really a fan of the president?
00:11:06.000This is the point I made on my show today that's not convincing because everyone knows the economy is doing pretty poorly right now.
00:11:13.000What he should have done is pegged it to like a seminal campaign goal that maybe isn't as popular.
00:11:18.000So he could have said, This is the mass deportations dividend, or this is the tariff dividend, because those are two policies that absolutely need to get pushed across the finish line, but are, you know, it's tough to get Republicans to play ball on it, let alone Democrats.
00:11:31.000So if he would have pegged the five grand, put it in the American psyche, I'm getting five grand, and it says in your bank statement, the mass deportation dividend, that does a lot for you.
00:11:40.000And it can like curry, again, like 5% support in the polls, which does matter, because like polling on these issues does dictate how a lot of certainly.
00:11:48.000What about like the dividend for this is all the money we're saving on rental subsidies after we've ejected all the temporary protected status Haitians from Springfield?1.00
00:11:56.000Yeah, that would have been awesome.1.00
00:11:57.000Like, and that should be like a recur.
00:11:59.000They should like create it, create like a Norway style like fund.
00:12:02.000And any money that we save that we are spending on like migrants or whatever, we just throw it in that slush fund.
00:12:08.000Any revenue we're gaining from the tariffs at the federal level, throw it in that slush fund and just distribute it like every month to like net taxpayers.
00:12:50.000CPI is only up like what 40% since 2016.
00:12:52.000So, I mean, yeah, it's not like we're in the era of Reagan economics anymore.
00:12:57.000I think people just need to kind of give that up.
00:12:59.000But if you're using again, if you're someone that like doesn't really care about this issue until today, you're probably just using it as a way to have another reason to complain about Trump.
00:13:06.000Was Reagan actually good economically or was Carter just really, really bad?
00:13:11.000I mean, there was this thing I remember because I got commissioned to write a play about inspired by it where he went on TV and he told everybody, yeah, fuel prices are high, just put on a sweater.
00:14:04.000And whether or not he does something, it doesn't even matter.
00:14:06.000And that would definitely be interesting when you look at vaccines, like what they're dropping the vaccine count from 72 to 11.
00:14:14.000For those that are hesitant or cautious, that was a big win for that community, which is a lot of America now.
00:14:23.000There's been a ton of things that you can classify as big wins from Donald Trump.
00:14:28.000The problem is the midterms are in a couple months, what is it, 55 days or whatever, something like that, and diesel in California is $10 a gallon.
00:14:39.000Vote on the price of gas and the cost of groceries.
00:14:42.000All the other stuff is actually pretty tertiary.
00:14:46.000People were okay or voted for deportations because they believed that it was going to bring prices down, not like largely because they believed that, look, this is actually going to make it easier for me to survive.
00:14:58.000No matter how much people want to say that it's other stuff, if you feel like your streets are safe, your dollar buys you enough stuff, and your gas doesn't cost too much.
00:15:10.000You'll vote the party that's in power back into power.
00:15:45.000It's as much as we talk about, you know, nuanced issues or talk about, you know, whatever's happening politically and stuff, people care about their immediate family.
00:15:59.000And when I say their community, the people that are immediately around them, even people in big cities, care about, you know, what's it like on the block that I live on?
00:16:08.000And, you know, there's the store down the street.
00:16:12.000I remember having a wild conversation with, well, Wild conversation with my city councilman in Brooklyn years ago during COVID.
00:16:19.000And there were all these reports coming in about how the Department of Sanitation had stopped collecting trash in a number of neighborhoods.
00:16:26.000And I called him and I was like, Is that what's going on?
00:16:28.000And he was like, No, because of budget cuts, the Department of Sanitation has cut back on some collections.
00:16:35.000And a lot of city councilmen can use their discretionary budget to keep them collecting.
00:16:41.000And I said, Yeah, because I'm not seeing that in our neighborhood.
00:16:43.000And he said, Yeah, I'm using my discretionary budget to have them come clear the corner baskets.
00:16:48.000And a lot of city council persons weren't doing that because they didn't think their constituency cared.
00:16:53.000And he knew that his constituency did care.
00:16:55.000And that's why he kept getting elected.
00:16:57.000Even though he was like a commie, he kept the streets clean.
00:17:03.000This point that I'm talking about, tethering into what you guys are talking about, about like what the people, what we really need is like, you know, if you don't have your health, you have nothing.
00:17:13.000Like the saying, if you have your health, you have a thousand dreams.
00:17:16.000If you don't have your health, you have one.
00:17:18.000And if there's something that is holding, You know, the fate of humanity and the balance, and whether our kids are sick or adults, whether we're sick or whether we're well, it's such a linchpin.
00:17:29.000And so, love him or hate him, like a lot of the community that have been feeling like in such an unfair situation, like I don't want to give all my child all these vaccines.
00:17:39.000And they've been begging for freedom on this issue so they can have the discretion to choose, but then felt bullied into it, like restricted from what schools they could go to, whether those exemptions can be granted to them.
00:17:51.000And it's been quite hellish for a lot of people, and people have been through a lot, and then they get gaslit.
00:17:55.000This wasn't what caused the issue, this lifelong health condition that this child now has.
00:18:04.000And these companies are cooking the books, the serial felons, like the vaccine companies that were tasked with the COVID vaccine had over $30 billion in criminal fines.
00:18:42.000And Moderna, it was because they cooked the books with the clinical trial data.
00:18:46.000So these were all different issues that were so bad that blurred judgment and doctors' abilities to do what they did best, which was to treat their patients versus get marching orders from a pharmaceutical company and then have to push that agenda, no matter what the unique composition of that child was.
00:19:13.000The frustrations with Trump, it bothers me because of all of the actual, like, tangible success that he's had, but because of the fact that, like I said, we're, you know, two months away from the midterms.0.54
00:19:28.000You've got this Iran war that nobody wanted, nobody likes, and it's dragging on.
00:19:34.000It's almost six months now, or what have you.
00:20:26.000So it's no secret that social media viewership has been down across the board across all genres.
00:20:33.000And I know everyone likes to attack Ben Shapiro or they'll comment on our show or whatever because they're like, haha, your views are down or whatever.
00:21:10.000I mean, because it seems like, I mean, movies, you know, like what, three years ago, everyone was eulogizing the movie theater, and now they're like shattering box office records.
00:21:18.000The biggest movie ever made, ever was Spider Man.
00:21:31.000You would go back, you know, three years ago and the Atlantic would have pieces out like, it's going to, when the movie theaters are gone, we're really going to miss some guys.
00:21:54.000As far as I understand it, the NFL and NBA, the NBA is down a little bit, like the NFL and the MLB.
00:21:59.000The MLB is roared back, which is quite shocking.
00:22:01.000And just anecdotally speaking, most of my friends are sports guys, and everyone's kind of tapped back into a lot of the storylines this year.
00:22:50.000But the shows they have are the only ones that make me keep coming back to, you know, like I'll see an Apple TV show and I'll be like, oh, I'll subscribe for another month.
00:22:59.000I also watched Silo, and I watched Silo was really fun.
00:23:36.000I think there's a lot of things there.
00:23:38.000I mean, first two, I think part of the reason, like, I don't know, I'm just.
00:23:41.000Speaking for myself here, but anecdotally, it seems like pretty much everyone I know has pushed back in streaming service, back into sports.
00:23:47.000I think a reason why some of this isn't showing up in the numbers is I think people are more equipped than ever to like pirate content.
00:23:56.000People, like everyone knows how to pirate movies and television shows now.
00:23:59.000And you can tell that this is a problem because you can't like get Chromecast, you can't cast to your screen anymore from like any web player.
00:24:05.000They've changed it now where you can't just cast from any old web player.
00:24:08.000So I think like these streaming services and everyone are quite aware that piracy is becoming a huge problem.
00:25:44.000Like YouTube said, they're changing the way they count views to be a single second.
00:25:48.000It used to be like at least 30 seconds of view because they didn't want people gaming the system.
00:25:52.000But now that every single platform is like the moment you watch for any amount of time, it's a view.
00:25:57.000YouTube fell in line, but YouTube shorts were always this way.
00:26:00.000So I got to tell you, like, I've got a handful of, we didn't do shorts for a year because it just seemed like it's not fruitful.
00:26:11.000I do a 20 minute video in the morning, I can make $1,000 off that one 20 minute show.
00:26:16.000But now that viewership in long form is dying, you still do make more money from people who watch long form, but most people are watching short form now and it's shifting over.
00:26:27.000I did two shorts and I got half a million views on each of them.
00:26:30.000And it took me like literally three minutes to make the short.
00:26:33.000I just picked up the phone, said some things, commented on a clip.
00:26:37.000It's a minute and a half long, and it made 80 bucks.
00:26:40.000So I'm like, okay, I can record for 20 minutes, maybe do 1,000, but if I can do seven videos, seven shorts, and just spam up and blast them out, then it's comparable.
00:26:52.000You get one banger plus a bunch of small ones.
00:27:24.000So you might think that's actually a very small amount of money for the 300 million impressions that I'm getting on X. All it takes is looking at their troll tweets to.
00:27:37.000Well, so the way the old system worked is that it was how many replies you got because people were then creating this massive thread and ads would appear there.
00:27:46.000So it would create more viewership in the thread.
00:27:49.000And so I had a couple posts over Labor Day that got like 2 million views where I said, you know, if you could press a button, that would kill somebody, but you'd get a million bucks.
00:27:56.000That got like 7,000 or 8,000 replies in quotes.
00:27:58.000The new system is based on original content.
00:28:00.000Now, here's the thing let's say there's $100 in the pool every month.
00:28:07.000There's 100 people getting access to that pool.
00:29:13.000So, based on the estimates, we don't know the exact ratio, but I got to be honest.
00:29:19.000Some of the people I've talked to who work in social media are like, they are excising some 80% of people who would normally be in this monetization program.
00:29:28.000That means you're going to see a 5X increase in the amount of money you're getting if you're producing original content.
00:29:34.000Well, are you or are a lot of the people who are participating on X going to drift away and go to some other platform where they can monetize?
00:30:18.000So there's no light at the end of the tunnel because it was effectively communism, right?
00:30:22.000Not literally, but it's a decentralized monetization system where.
00:30:26.000If everybody can get it for the most minimal amount of work, including people in India commenting on each other's posts to just steal money from the system, no one's making meaningful money.
00:30:35.000So it doesn't seem like a viable platform.
00:30:38.000With this move, and I think the reason they did it, if I'm getting a standard 1% share of the pool, they eliminate 9% of people.
00:31:07.000YouTube Shorts, like I said, 400,000 views, 80 bucks.
00:31:11.000When X comes out and says, we have X money, direct deposit into your X account, pay through X, and we pay more than everybody else, I think that's Elon's plan.
00:31:21.000I think he's saying we're going to get rid of the low quality content, which is just comments and questions.
00:31:27.000What did we see with the monetization?
00:31:28.000People posting things like, When you have breakfast, do you put maple syrup or do you like high fructose corn syrup products?0.97
00:31:35.000They were doing stupid things like that to generate engagement that nobody wanted to interact with.0.94
00:31:39.000It's like the early days of Facebook when there would be Facebook groups about the cold side of the pillow.0.99
00:35:27.000That's, that's really like the goal is to like, Not just obviously you're going to love your kids, but you want to be, you want to like your kids too.
00:36:42.000I do feel like because of where I spend most of my time and who I spend most of my time with, it's kept me younger.
00:36:52.000Yeah, but you still, I mean, I think there's something to be said for having someone who can tell you about teen culture while being a little dismissive for sure, but not entirely.
00:37:06.000You were talking about the Kirk Aversary before the show started.
00:37:20.000The audience can't see that, but I zoomed in right before the show started because I was finishing up this story before I came to the studio.
00:37:27.000Yeah, so this Kirk Aversary, people are celebrating Charlie Kirk's murder.
00:37:35.000They're doing all kinds of things about that, but they're also just.
00:37:39.000Completely memifying him, turning him into a goofy thing, putting his face on all kinds of things that don't make any sense.
00:37:47.000They're kirking each other as a joke, which is kind of like, you know, putting your finger on your friend's neck and then your friend pretends that they've just been shot.
00:37:57.000They're celebrating the, you know, accused killer who.0.92
00:38:03.000I want to stress this, though, about the kirking their friends.0.94
00:38:07.000If they don't understand, if it's not intended as a gloating over Charlie's death, it's just a youthful trivialization and ignorance, I'm not really mad about it.0.93
00:38:17.000What I'm mad about is political individuals who are advocating for murder and death doing it.
00:38:22.000As a sign of intimidation and antagonism.0.99
00:38:24.000Like when I see little kids running around saying stupid words or whatever, I'm not thinking like, you know, like if you go to a skate park and you hear kids dropping N bombs left and right and they do, I'm not sitting there being like, oh, those racist kids.0.99
00:38:47.000I mean, and if you look to, there was some TikToker who was talking about how it was the inversion of the Luigi Mangioni thing.
00:38:54.000So, Mangione, you know, charged with shooting UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in cold blood in broad daylight in the street of New York.
00:39:06.000And media was like, oh, he's a killer.
00:39:09.000And everybody was like, no, celebrate.0.74
00:39:12.000And then with Charlie Kirk, you know, people were talking about how terrible it was that he was murdered.
00:39:18.000And then, you know, this outcry comes that they're happy about it.
00:39:22.000So I think that there's definitely, like you say, I think there's the two levels to it.
00:39:26.000I think there's the, Sort of pop culture messing around thing, which actually exemplifies how normalized this kind of violence has become.
00:39:35.000And then there's the Antifa accounts who are, you know, talking about, I, why don't I have a Kirkentine on this Kirkiversary to celebrate with me?
00:40:08.000Yeah, people should not make anyone's death trivial, right?
00:40:14.000Even after, and this is a surreal concept, but it was James Dobson that went in and did the interview with Ted Bundy just before he was executed.
00:40:23.000And in the interview, you'll see the lights flicker because the electric chair is getting tested while the interview is happening.
00:40:34.000Was driving out, then they had like, uh, like mock, um, you know, inflatable body of like, you know, uh, a replica of Ted Bundy that they were dragging around and kicking around.
00:40:47.000And and and James Dobson, a Christian radio host, just said this was truly a sad thing to see even humans react this way, even to somebody that everyone would agree was very evil and very wicked.
00:41:02.000And but like, you just have to think of.
00:41:04.000Um, you know, if there is a God, which I believe there is, God would never celebrate any one of his children dying, whether it was someone that was deemed as the wickedest or the greatest, most righteous among us.
00:41:16.000And to me, like, once we can elevate to that point where we just simply would never wish death on anyone and never celebrate these things and instead just treat all life as sacred, then there would be less reason.
00:41:26.000Like, no one would ever have a reason.
00:42:03.000We also saw the, you know, and this is something I looked at a lot of articles today about this whole memification of Charlie and his, you know, and his.
00:42:15.000And a lot of the articles that I looked at were talking about how, in the wake of Charlie's murder last year, there were a lot of accounts, like conservative activist accounts online, trying to get people fired for having said negative things about Charlie on their social media following his killing.
00:42:36.000And I remember thinking at the time, like, this is not the greatest thing.
00:42:40.000Like, do I approve of what people are saying on social media?
00:42:55.000I wasn't a huge fan of people getting fired because they were not pro BLM or pro trans or because they wouldn't get the COVID shot or any of the other things.
00:43:08.000So, I do think that there was a little bit of a reaction against that, you know, movement to get people fired because they said nasty things about Charlie.
00:43:20.000President Trump was shot in Butler, Pennsylvania.
00:43:23.000There was this effort to get people fired.
00:43:27.000And I do wish that there was, I wish that we had more of a civil society, you know?
00:43:34.000And I look back and I wonder if it's just my memory is faulty or, and we did have, you know, where I think like, oh, we did have a civil society, you know, like under the Warren Court, things seemed a lot more normal, a little more nuanced, people could understand each other.
00:43:55.000Has seemed in my memory, but I think it would be better if we could have a civil discourse, if we could have a way that people operate in public, essentially, you know, but we don't.
00:44:10.000And it's like, you know, we just have straight up depravity just all around us.
00:44:15.000It's pretty intense to just watch this happen.
00:44:18.000And to what you were saying, Phil, it's different for people who knew Charlie for sure, you know.
00:44:24.000I mean, I think we were all, um, We were on stage with them, you know, multiple times.
00:44:29.000And it's so weird to see somebody that you liked and knew professionally to see their killing be reveled in by people.
00:44:47.000Yeah, I mean, the political climate in the U.S. now, because this is all because of Charlie's.
00:44:58.000You know, politics because of how effective he was, because of how great of a speaker he was.
00:45:03.000It's really, really dark to see so many people.
00:45:07.000I was just looking at a clip on X today, just a little while ago, of people, you know, getting basically violent in New York City over, you know, there was some kind of, I think they were trying to put up a statue or something like that.
00:45:36.000But to go and assault people because they're putting up a statue of a guy, I mean, and, you know, I know we sound like a broken record when we talk about this kind of stuff, but it's all from the left.
00:45:50.000Like there is nobody on the right that's going to go and try to assault people for putting up a statue of someone that they don't agree with.
00:46:13.000None of us are going to go out there and fight over it.
00:46:16.000Especially seeing as, like, look, the way that the British, the way that, or the people in the UK treat, like, the way that they've globbed onto the whole, you know, anti racist stuff.
00:46:30.000Like, they're the country that went around the world and ended slavery in all, basically, in all the colonies.
00:46:57.000Yeah, but ending it across the British Empire was something unprecedented in human history for an entire empire to say, we're stopping this.
00:47:07.000Well, and they footed the bill to stamp it out whenever it did exist.0.52
00:47:30.000It was this linchpin, a small group called the Clapham sect.
00:47:33.000And they originally were taking people on ships and they had petitions they'd get people to sign and say, look at how bad it is on these ships.
00:47:42.000And Appeal to people better than people, the indifference to like, look, this is just the way of life, and it's, look, it sucks, but you know what?
00:47:53.000And until they actually kind of tricked the system and they did it through a commerce structure that ultimately stopped slavery.
00:48:00.000And it's part of the reason why a group that I'm working with, with Tim Tebow, is called the Clapham Accelerator because it's about a couple of hundred companies using AI to stop human trafficking through all different innovations in AI.
00:48:17.000To detect where children are being trafficked, to set up systems that stop it, to protect children on devices through software like Harmblock that stops children from receiving images and being able to give images through AI pattern recognition, all different aspects of that.
00:48:34.000Deja vu has led to successful rescues through AI pattern recognition as to where the children, where the CSM, child sexual abuse material is coming from.
00:48:42.000But yeah, these are the initiatives that really matter.
00:48:46.000We have to end these problems because human trafficking is growing at about 20% a year and it's creating a world that we cannot live in.
00:48:54.000And then when people are so frivolous with human life and just joking about things that really do matter, they're not standing for their world.
00:49:03.000And we have to do everything to help give them something to stand for.
00:49:07.000And one of the reasons why I think that people revel in these types of things is because they actually see it as part of something good, something that they like.
00:49:16.000It was hard, it was difficult, but it was necessary.
00:49:19.000And if you look in the Bible in John chapter 17, Jesus said that the time is coming when he that seeks to kill you will think he's doing God's service.
00:49:27.000But that's because he does not know me and he does not know the Father.
00:49:30.000And he's talking about what it's like to then be so debased that you think it's like a great thing, a religious thing, like something, a good honor to the betterment of humanity and society to end something that is abhorrent to you because you're offended.
00:49:47.000And it's also why Jesus said, Woe unto the world because of offenses, right?
00:49:58.000And so I want you to be gotten rid of rather than for me to change.
00:50:02.000Things about my life that are getting called out that are actually things that would be called sin, like I'm actually doing wrong things, and instead of me reflecting on that, I just want to get rid of the check engine light, like there's something wrong with me.
00:50:16.000Yeah, I mean, I'm not the guy to comment on scripture, but the idea that you know people feel motivated to attack other people because they're offended is something that hasn't gone away, and again, even to Libby's point, like she was talking about how.
00:50:35.000You know, it's bad that you know people were going after you know people on the right were going after people that were mocking Charlie Kirk's death, like that.
00:50:43.000I think that I think that's the right impulse to say, Hey, this isn't a good idea.
00:50:50.000Um, but it is different, totally different than the behavior of the left.
00:50:54.000And one of the most frustrating things is there are people on the left, and it's most people on the left that will still swear up and down that that it's the left doesn't do that, and when they do.
00:51:06.000They're justified because, well, you know, the people that they went after, they were bad people.
00:51:22.000And then you could justify everything, but you cannot see it.
00:51:25.000And that's the sad part because you're talking to people that there's a pulse there, but there's like this part that you can't get through.
00:51:56.000And he just reflected on that state of just being blind.
00:52:00.000And there is a redemptive aspect to that because if we could, you know, have a view of redemption, say, look, I see you, you're in there.
00:52:08.000And if it was your child that was on the heavy, Side of the left, and you know, going about things this way, you'd say, Look, there's still hope, don't give up on my child.
00:52:16.000I believe in them, there's still a way, there's a way through here.
00:52:18.000And it is through love and compassion and kindness, um, that you can break still that hard heartedness and that blindness.
00:52:28.000Yeah, the slavery discourse is fascinating.
00:52:31.000One of my favorite uh tidbits of historical record is uh, Mauritania didn't abolish it until 1981, like actual chattel slavery.
00:52:40.000Like, like the U.S. was unloading like the world's most severe sanctions package on South Africa.
00:52:45.000Like on the same continent, there was literally a country that, like in 1981, they I would love to be in that room.
00:52:49.000Yeah, there's like fellas, you know, it's starting to be, it's starting to look like a little, it's a kind of a bad look.
00:52:55.000I think maybe we should uh reconsider our position.
00:53:02.000We had like, I, I, what was even charting in 1981?
00:53:05.000And there was a country that had literal chattel slavery illegalized, like it's like the talking heads, maybe, yeah, maybe.
00:53:10.000And then, yeah, just they're they're listening to the talking heads and they're like, you know what, maybe, yeah, I need to outwall this, just not a good look, not a good look.
00:53:20.000It's like if you read Henry Kissinger, he had this bloodthirst for all these basically European and European descended countries.
00:53:28.000And if any of them stepped out of line in any way, shape, or form, massive sanctions package, the full breadth of the American State Department.
00:53:36.000But then you had countries like Mauritania, who literally had ancient chattel slavery sanctioned by the state.
00:54:24.000Funny short video I watched where a guy was asking people, When did slavery end?0.98
00:54:28.000And you know what's funny about these men in the street interviews is that when you see these videos where people answer the questions like they're stupid, this is not real.
00:54:35.000Because imagine trying to do honest and legitimate videos and you find that when you go to Times Square, 99% of people will give you either a good answer or a I'm sorry, I just don't know answer.0.99
00:54:46.000So when you see these videos where people are really dumb, they're hunting for dumb people.0.95
00:54:51.000But they ask people, this guy asks people, When did slavery end?0.99
00:55:33.000It's just that there's a means for them to exert power over you.
00:55:37.000Because you have the wrong opinions or whatever it is.
00:55:40.000We had like a couple decades of people on the left saying that it was time to destroy a lot of the norms, whether it was nuclear families or heteronormative, blah, blah, blah, or whatever it was.
00:55:55.000And now that all the norms have been destroyed, They get mad that norms that they liked are still destroyed.
00:56:04.000They get mad that the norms they like are still destroyed.
00:56:06.000And so they complain about all of that stuff too.
00:56:08.000But once you start really, once you pick away at the wall, the wall is going to crumple and you don't get to decide where the pieces fall.
00:58:17.000Like, I mean, they just have no idea how they're going to produce the results that they swear up and down that they're going to produce.
00:58:24.000And you see it, you know, happen in society, in different societies throughout history.
00:58:28.000And it doesn't matter what the race of the society is, it doesn't matter about the makeup of the society at all.
00:58:35.000These things don't work in any society.
00:58:39.000You look at societies that generally do work, and they're societies where, you know, the families, The family unit is the primary unit, right?
00:58:49.000Like that's the foundation of your society.
00:58:52.000If you have a society that makes sure that families are taken care of, that by extension takes care of the individuals in the family, right?
00:59:00.000We've sort of replaced that in the United States with the foundational relationship is not in the family unit, but it's between the individual and government.
00:59:07.000And government is so, you know, fickle and constantly changing and based on a drive for power, not actually values or anything.
00:59:19.000That's a very dangerous relationship to base a society on.
00:59:23.000And also, these leftists are the same ones who think that the colonists disrupted these perfectly peaceful Indian civilizations.
00:59:50.000During the French Revolution, he believed that man was constrained by society and we should return to being savages or savages in cities or whatever.
01:00:06.000You can't have people that are not restrained by law living among other people.
01:00:12.000Yeah, that was the sentiment of the French Revolution, which was to disenfranchise religion and the belief in God and to institute atheism by law.
01:00:22.000And the seven day week was shifted to a 10 day week.
01:00:27.000It actually did cause insanity as well.
01:00:29.000And that was a mathematician that observed the mental asylums doubling in number.
01:00:34.000And this balance, because the seven day week is actually a remembrance of God.0.59
01:00:57.000And hence why people look at the Statue of Liberty being a gift from France, being reminiscent of that god of reason and that ideology also being here and some of the yin and yang that is going on with this, leaning into that.
01:01:12.000But there was so much bloodshed through this.
01:01:15.000In France, historians talked about the streets flowing with blood.
01:01:18.00040,000 people were killed by the Jacobins in the French Revolution.1.00
01:01:25.000I can't comprehend how people would think that that was better.0.67
01:01:29.000And then they had 75 years of not figuring out how to organize a proper government after the French Revolution.0.99
01:01:35.000They had Napoleon and all of his misadventures and just revolution after revolution because it was just basically a shit show.0.95
01:01:45.000Well, they screwed up the pitch on the 10 day week because they were like, okay, we have a new plan.0.98
01:01:49.000And everyone's like, okay, well, we'll hear you out.
01:01:51.000You know, we just did this whole revolution.
01:02:18.000War on God concepts, which, if you understand, the wars of the 19th, 20th century have been religious wars under atheism and with people like Charles Darwin spearheading the ideologies.
01:02:34.000And these, like Hitler was a hardcore Darwinist.
01:02:41.000And so there are interesting crossovers between alleged science and.0.82
01:02:49.000And how they did create this debased nature or help instill that within people to justify things that weren't good and had bad impacts in society.
01:02:58.000It just shows the thing that the left fears the most is the weekend.
01:04:02.000I think we should have Saturday and Sunday, we should just have Shabbat and you know the Christian Sunday and just close everything on the weekends, just shut it down.0.99
01:04:14.000I wouldn't have agreed a while ago, but I do agree.0.95
01:04:17.000And it's funny because uh, I've been invited to various Shabbat dinners, and I remember the first time I got invited, I think I was like 29, and I didn't know what Shabbat meant.
01:04:27.000And so a friend of mine was like, Do you want to come to Shabbat with us?
01:04:29.000And then I was like, Sure, what's that?
01:06:16.000But think about what that does to the institutionalized learning facility when the teachers are trying to indoctrinate your kids, but every Sunday the phones are off and you are all together.
01:06:25.000No, Sabbath is one of the most amazing things.
01:06:50.000And so that's the Teutonian Roman gods.
01:06:54.000But before it was actually just days towards the Sabbath.
01:06:57.000So it was seven days and it was days towards Shabbat.
01:07:01.000And it was so important that that's just what people loved to do because then you could just rest and enjoy your family, enjoy connection with God.
01:08:20.000Maybe that's a good thing, but it wasn't.
01:08:22.000And it was A.T. Jones, who was a barrister, a lawyer, that single handedly took down the Blair Bill off the premise that free will, the Sabbath is only good because you have free will so that you can do good, you can worship God, you can make these choices.
01:08:34.000But once you get forced, then now your ability to do good is impeded.
01:08:39.000Well, I don't think that, I think it's okay to say businesses can't be open on.
01:08:45.000And I kind of think it's okay to say, you know, we're going to close stuff down.
01:08:49.000Now I need to break my commandment because I keep the seventh day Sabbath.
01:08:53.000And now, if I'm impeded from work on Sunday, the Ten Commandments say, six days shall you labor and do all of your work.
01:08:58.000So, I have to work on Sunday because, as in, when I say have to, I mean, for me to be restricted and now I'm adhering to men's law, breaking the commandment for myself.
01:09:09.000I remember when I was a kid, my dad worked.0.95
01:09:12.000He's an attorney and he worked at a law firm where the partners who were Jewish would always make sure to show up on Christmas and Easter, like almost just as a revolt to do it.0.97
01:09:44.000He worked in an environment that required labor on holidays, and he said they would just schedule all the atheist and Jewish people on the holidays.0.75
01:09:53.000Well, you know, Chinese food restaurants on Christmas.0.93
01:10:12.000They, like, scheduled a Jewish co worker on Christmas, and then he was, like, throwing a fit, and he was, like, it's Christmas, I'm working.0.65
01:10:18.000And he was like, Isn't that your whole thing?
01:12:44.000Later on, people said, Oh, Aurelian, he had the like Sol Invictus and like the fertility day or whatever on December 25th, but.
01:12:52.000It's too simplistic to just say, well, they just, the Romans, once they became Christian, they just wanted to absorb all of the pagan holidays to like kind of convince people to come along into Christianity.
01:13:02.000Can I just, sorry to interrupt, can I just talk about how awesome it was that September, October, November, and December made so much sense?
01:13:10.000And they were like, now we need two more Julius and Augustine.
01:13:15.000So it's like there's the theory that it's the Roman winter festival.
01:13:18.000But if you look at, again, there's two schools of thought, and there probably is some Roman, some indication that the Romans did.
01:13:25.000You know, choose December 25th, maybe like lure in some pagans, but early Christians had already accepted March 25th as the day of Annunciation and then the add nine months onto that, nine months of pregnancy, and then Christ being born on December 25th.
01:13:37.000That's typically the kind of modern historical view on why we landed on December 25th.
01:13:42.000I also want to stress, too, that part of me is concerned about communist attempts at erasing Christian history for the purpose of erasing Christianity.
01:13:52.000They clearly, you know, many of these activists have no problem with Islam.
01:13:57.000But they have tremendous problems with Christianity.0.92
01:13:59.000As exemplified by Steven Crowder when he did that campaign like 10 years ago, he had a bunch of fake gay guys, including himself, go to Muslim bakeries to get gay wedding cakes made and they wouldn't make them.0.88
01:14:09.000But there was no leftist outrage, no liberal outrage.0.93
01:14:14.000So I will say, I've heard a lot from liberals and atheists about why Christian history is fake or incorrect or why you shouldn't believe these things.0.55
01:14:24.000And I'm kind of like, yeah, but you guys lied about a bunch of that stuff.
01:14:32.000Because there's a very good reason to tell Christians that their Lord and Savior was not born on December 25th and their holiday was actually fake because it's to attack their faith.0.97
01:14:43.000And Sol Invictus, it is a fascinating topic to approach because it is an example of the Romans saying, look, we have this working relationship with Christians now.0.99
01:14:54.000Therefore, the sun returning, I think that's what it is, the sun coming back to celebrate the winter festival will make that December 25th.
01:15:03.000The early Christians were already making that calculation of nine months after the Feast of Annunciation to say this is when Christ was born.
01:15:11.000But to be fair, like to concede to you in some degree, is what we know to be Christmas, a lot of the traditions, et cetera, some of that did come out of like early European paganism, but not the date itself, more like the actual aesthetics and whatnot.
01:15:24.000You know, you think about the Yule log and, and, you know, many of the aesthetics that we associate with Christmas.
01:15:37.000Very real, and that's why I'm all for the freedom for people to do as their conscience dictates.
01:15:43.000Like, if this is the day, then that's meaningful and that's important.
01:15:46.000Then I respect it and honor it, and I honor you in that.
01:15:50.000I'm talking about a historical shift that happened.
01:15:52.000If you look at what happened after Christ was crucified, you saw like over 200 years of bloodshed where Christians were hunted and they were put into the Roman Colosseums, and all of these things happened.
01:16:04.000And it was such a harsh persecution for them when Constantine, the emperor in 321, said, You know what, we'll do a deal.
01:16:10.000And then they inked the first national Sunday law, which then resulted in the genocide of all these different people that would not adhere to it, especially those that wanted to keep the seventh day Sabbath.
01:16:20.000There was this, they moved over a lot of the times that then accommodated and created the Roman Empire.0.50
01:16:27.000And I'm just against the force aspect of it.
01:16:42.000The civil laws that protect humans from hurting and harming each other.0.92
01:16:46.000Religious laws are the darkest of all laws, of all restrictions and things to force on people because it impedes on the conscience.0.69
01:16:55.000But don't you then have a situation where people have to work because they have to participate in society and then they have to go against their religion because they're scheduled to work on a day that is holy for them?0.85
01:17:06.000I mean, isn't that a violence against that person in the establishment of their religious right?
01:17:13.000And so I would, for me, like I have quite a few staff that work.
01:17:17.000For me, I would honor any day that they choose as the days.
01:17:20.000Like, I would never tell somebody, no, that's not what you should do.
01:17:23.000Like, I, my, my, my commitment to people and their autonomy and their free will and their ability to choose how they worship is so important to me that I would never do that to somebody.
01:17:35.000And as I would never want someone to do that to me.
01:17:37.000And so I'm saying things that need to be individual and personal.
01:17:41.000But why should there be any laws at all?
01:17:49.000That's why, you know, people cannot murder.
01:17:52.000And I think there's a reason why, if you look at the Ten Commandment law, people believe that their four was put on one: do not take the name of the Lord, God, thy God, in vain, have no other gods before me, don't take the name of the Lord, honor the Sabbath.
01:18:05.000Those four commandments, and then the six commandments, which begin with honor your mother and father, and then thou shalt not murder, were the ones that they could be instituted.
01:18:14.000You would have laws around protecting the safety of people.
01:18:18.000But the religious laws, like, In the same way, then I could then govern.
01:18:22.000Okay, you took the name of the Lord in vain.0.99
01:21:18.000And you've got to strengthen the tongue muscle.
01:21:20.000It's like, it's way more important than strengthening your biceps because that's, if you're a mouth breather, it's because your tongue, your tongue muscle is sitting at the bottom.
01:21:29.000There's an adult joke I was going to make, but I'm not going to.
01:26:32.000British slang for your junk is todger.1.00
01:26:35.000It was Dr. Brian Hooker with the Children's Health Defense who was stacking the studies showing like C section, not breastfed, vaccines, like that stack, bro.0.98
01:29:26.000There's some Tim Cast member in there somewhere.
01:29:33.000I have to start, ladies and gentlemen, with a note of gratitude to each and every single person in this room and each and every single person who's watching.
01:29:44.000Whether you're in the convention hall with us or watching from home on TV, you are here tonight because you love this country and we're not going to let it go backwards.
01:30:03.000Two years ago, we have to remember our nation, ladies and gentlemen, was tired.
01:30:09.000We were tired of seeing our factories close.
01:30:12.000We were tired of our neighbors dying of drug overdoses.
01:30:16.000We were tired of not being able to afford anything.
01:30:19.000We were tired of seeing the cartels and the criminals given free reign over our great country.
01:30:26.000And we were tired of being called racists for noticing that our country was becoming dirtier and poorer and less safe and less prosperous.
01:30:46.000We were tired as a country, but you were not defeated.
01:30:51.000The radicals in Washington, they could take much from us, but they couldn't take our will to fight back.
01:31:05.000And so all of us came together on November the 5th, and we sent the toughest SOB in American politics back to the White House, and we made Donald J. Trump the 47th president of the United States.
01:31:23.000Now, ladies and gentlemen, this is a joyful occasion for me.
01:31:28.000I see the great state of Ohio right here in the front row.
01:31:36.000But I gotta be honest, it's also a somber occasion for me personally, and I know for so many of you out there, because the last time that I addressed.
01:31:48.000That's a convention of my fellow Republicans.
01:31:51.000Remember, just two years ago, I had just become the Republican nominee for Vice President of the United States.
01:32:11.000I was speaking on the biggest stage of my life, and I'd been in politics for barely a year and a half.
01:32:16.000But I will never forget that as I made that speech, as I addressed the country on the biggest stage of my life, In the front row, right about there, my dear friend Charlie Kirk was smiling and cheering me and reminding me that I had a good friend right here in the convention hall.
01:32:41.000And of course, after I was elected Vice President of the United States, one year ago today, on September the 10th of last year, that good friend was taken from us when Charlie was assassinated.
01:32:55.000Now, Charlie left behind two children, two little kids, they were too young to fully understand, and a wife, the amazing Erica, who has carried on his mission with more courage and resolve than most of us will ever be asked to show.
01:33:20.000But to those sweet kids, I don't imagine they're watching tonight, they're still very young, but I hope that one day they will watch and they will know and they will understand what I'm trying to say to them tonight.
01:33:32.000Though they may not appreciate it today, history will record that your father was a great man.
01:34:04.000But those of us who loved your dad, we knew him as something even better than a great man.
01:34:36.000We are entitled to inherit something straight from God the Father.
01:34:47.000Now, we live, of course, in an imperfect world of fallen men.
01:34:50.000We live in the city of man, not the city of God.
01:34:54.000But I believe that our founders built this nation on a promise that echoes our Creator that every American child is born an heir, is born with a birthright, born with the right to inherit the blessings of the greatest country on earth, not because of who their parents are, not because of what they look like or where they come from, but because they are Americans and this is our country.
01:35:31.000And that birthright, ladies and gentlemen, is what this November is all about.
01:35:37.000Now, Charlie spoke to young men in particular.
01:35:40.000He was a young man himself, and he understood where they were coming from.
01:35:44.000He understood that there was no greater calling for a young man, and he would tell people this, than falling in love, starting a family, and becoming a father.
01:35:53.000He would tell young men around the country that ultimately you wouldn't care what your job was or where you went to school, but you would care about your family.
01:36:03.000And of course, I've thought a lot about those words, a lot about those words in the last year, but particularly a lot about those words over the last six weeks.
01:36:13.000Because as many of you know, in July, my beautiful Usha gave birth to a baby boy, Little Alec, just six weeks ago.
01:37:54.000It is inside of that nuclear family where I watch my four year old little girl, little Mira, beg to feed a bottle to her new baby brother.
01:38:05.000It's inside of the nuclear family where Alex's older siblings just a couple of weeks ago witnessed the wonder of a new baby's very first smile.
01:38:17.000It's inside of that family where I've seen Usha show an almost divine patience with those four kids.
01:38:26.000And so, to the radicals who wish to abolish my family and the thousands and millions of other families all across our country, we have a simple message for them stay the hell away from our kids.
01:39:01.000Now, because we got a new kid around, I can't help but look at the future of this country through the eyes of the future of my son.
01:39:09.000And I can't help but think about what it is that we're fighting for and what it is that we want for all of our children.
01:39:16.000Now, I, of course, I want my son to grow up healthy and strong.
01:39:20.000I want him to have access to clean water and real food.
01:39:26.000I want him to live in a country where you don't need a PhD in chemistry to understand the ingredient list in the grocery store.
01:39:56.000He's going to grow up and go to school.
01:39:57.000I want him to go to a school that teaches him to read, to write, that reaches him arithmetic, that teaches him to love his country and his fellow citizens.
01:40:10.000And what I want for my family, I want for your family too.
01:40:19.000My job is to fight for every single person in this room, every person watching at home, as if they were my own family, as if they were my own kin.
01:40:34.000And so I don't just want these things for my kids, I want them for your kids too.
01:40:38.000I want our daughters to compete on a fair field where no politician tells a little girl she's got to surrender her trophy, her scholarship, or her locker room to a man.
01:41:05.000I want our sons to have a fair shot at a good job, and I want that for our daughters too.
01:41:12.000I want, whether they work in tech or manufacturing, American businesses to hire American workers, to rely on American people, and to ensure that we build the next generation of great American products with American hands.
01:41:36.000I want our children to be safe, ladies and gentlemen.
01:41:38.000I want them to be safe on their streets, safe in their schools, living peacefully in neighborhoods where the law protects the innocent and throws the violent criminals in prison where they belong.
01:41:56.000I want them to be free to worship to the dictates of their own conscience.
01:42:01.000And I want our children to grow up in a country that doesn't roll its eyes at people who pray, but remembers that this country itself was an answer to prayer 250 years ago.
01:42:25.000And I think, like most parents, I want my kids to do the most important thing.
01:42:32.000I want them to find somebody who's worth building a life with.
01:42:37.000And I want them to be able to afford a home where they can raise their children in peace and prosperity and comfort.1.00
01:42:46.000It's all old people there, so nobody's really all that moved by that.1.00
01:42:51.000I want them to know the pride of saving up for something, of buying something big and real that they're proud of without being outbid by Wall Street tycoons.1.00
01:43:05.000I want them to keep what they've earned when they work hard.
01:43:08.000And that is the birthright that I'm talking about.
01:43:11.000That is the country that Donald J. Trump is fighting every single day to defend and to build upon.
01:43:25.000And while the president works every day to build upon that great nation, every single day the far left is working right now to make sure that your children never see that birthright.
01:45:17.000I had, ladies and gentlemen, I had a whole speech written.0.98
01:45:25.000But I think I got to change it because we just discovered the symbol of the far left an idiot waving an American flag or a Mexican flag at a protest when he should be waving the flag of the United States of America.0.97
01:45:40.000That would have been a great little clip if you hadn't fumbled it.0.99
01:46:00.000Now, we all know, of course, that as much as that person might wave around a foreign flag, he'd much rather live in Dallas or in Cincinnati or in any one of our great cities than Mexico.
01:46:16.000But while we wave the American flag and fight for the American dream, we have to remind ourselves tonight.
01:46:24.000That the good life that is the foundation of this country's promise is not guaranteed.
01:46:30.000We have to remember that a safe home, a good school, a happy family, a future that is better than the past, every generation of Americans has had to fight for these things when it's our turn.
01:46:52.000And this fall, the Democrats are running candidates who will tell your children what they're allowed to say, how they're allowed to live, and importantly, who they ought to hate.
01:47:02.000Because that's what the Democrat Party is about in 2026.
01:47:06.000It's not about you, it's about foreign fraudsters, and it's about who they hate.1.00
01:47:11.000And we got to send their asses packing in November.0.99
01:47:23.000We got to send a message this November that the country does not belong to the radicals.0.99
01:47:30.000It does not belong to the bureaucrats.
01:47:33.000It does not belong to the highest bidder.
01:47:35.000This country was handed down to us by our parents and their parents before them.
01:47:40.000We received this national birthright, and we are going to fight for it by electing Republicans this November.
01:49:15.000We got to take care of business this November, then we'll worry about what comes next.
01:49:24.000When we came into office, when we came into office just 18 months ago, so many of our fellow Americans sensed that they'd been robbed of their chance to build a good life.
01:49:35.000They worried they'd never be able to afford a home, a family.
01:49:40.000Or a real stake in the country that all of us love.
01:49:43.000Consider how life changed for Americans coming of age during those terrible Biden years.
01:49:54.000Prices rose 20% across the board, the worst inflation in a generation.
01:50:00.000And I always loved when we said this, the president and I would go during the campaign, we'd say, you know, inflation is as high as it's been in 100 years.
01:50:10.000And the fake news would say, no, no, no, it's as high as it's been in 68 years.
01:50:15.000That ain't good, ladies and gentlemen.
01:50:19.000In just four short years, the cost of a home under Joe Biden doubled.
01:50:25.000And Americans who were finishing school suddenly found themselves competing not against their fellow Americans for jobs, but against 25 million new illegal immigrants, not just for jobs, but for homes as well.
01:50:44.000Where you had to be rich to enjoy what used to be the birthright of every ordinary middle class life.
01:50:53.000It became a country where violent crime exploded, unless, of course, you could afford private security.
01:50:59.000And it wasn't just that things became more expensive, it's that our country was stolen from us and then handed out to strangers.
01:51:08.000Think just one case, one of the fraud cases that we charged last May, where two women, one of them born in Somalia, defrauded Medicaid of $46.
01:51:26.000They did it by creating fake autism clinics and then having their friends sign up and pretend to have kids on the spectrum.
01:51:35.000And that's millions of dollars that ordinary American parents needed to help their special needs children, but instead went to foreign kickbacks and spending sprees for fraudsters.
01:51:51.000When the fraud they turned a blind eye to reached these catastrophic levels, we found $250 billion of fraud just since the president made me the fraud czar.
01:52:08.000When Medicaid programs for homeless or expecting mothers in states like Minnesota and Wisconsin began to fall apart because the money that you had paid to support those expectant mothers was going to fraudsters.
01:52:22.000Here's what the Democrats did they refused to prosecute the crime, and by the way, they called everybody who noticed their fraud racist for noticing that there were people stealing from our children and our new and expectant mothers.
01:52:40.000The Democrat legacy of the last few years was that they bankrupted our country and left us poorer.
01:53:49.000Listen to what these people have actually said in their own words.
01:53:53.000In Manhattan this November, you have Democrat candidates who declare their life goal is, and I quote, the total eradication of Western civilization.
01:54:09.000A few years ago, they cheered on the most horrific slaughter of innocent civilian Jews that we have seen in a generation.
01:54:17.000In Lansing, In Lansing, you have Democrats who call for, quote, destroying the American way of life.
01:54:29.000And in Texas, you have Democrats, grown men, who seem to be pretty obsessed with trans children.
01:54:42.000I gotta say, the president's very good at nicknames, but Tala Frico maybe tops the list.
01:54:55.000But this Tallarico guy, he will not shut up about how there are six genders.
01:55:01.000He will not shut up about how, quote, God is non binary.
01:55:04.000I don't know what the hell that even means, my friends.
01:55:08.000He won't shut up about having traditional Christian values makes you a bigot.
01:55:13.000And I got to say, a guy that age who is so obsessed and focused on transgender children, I don't know about you, but I never want to see that guy's web browser history.
01:55:32.000In Denver, Colorado, you have Democrats who say that 9 11 was inevitable, who offer justifications for terrorists who murdered 3,000 of our fellow citizens.
01:55:57.000Candidates who, when they're not calling to repeal the Second Amendment, they will attack you as a literal white supremacist if you dare to criticize Sharia law.
01:56:10.000In the great state of New York, congressional Democrats tell us that the July 4th celebration is really about the liberation of Palestine and Puerto Rico.
01:56:21.000I can't even say that without laughing.
01:56:26.000Thomas Jefferson writing away all about.
01:56:30.000The liberation of Palestine and Puerto Rico.
01:56:35.000And these aren't media personalities, these aren't weirdos on social media, these are the candidates that Congressional Democrats have put forth for you to vote for in November.
01:56:46.000They asked, my friends, for a one way ticket to Washington to legislate and regulate and wield power over your lives.
01:56:55.000Instead, in my opinion, they need a one way ticket to a mental hospital.
01:57:10.000Now, we're all having a good time as fellow Republicans celebrating what we've achieved and looking forward to accomplishing a lot more.
01:57:19.000But I know there are a lot of people who are watching on TV who aren't always sold, and I want to speak directly to them, not to the faithful, but to the people who are still making up their minds.
01:57:28.000The people on the margins, the people who are still a little unsure who they're going to vote for.
01:57:35.000Some people who love some of our policies, but maybe don't agree with others.
01:57:39.000Young men, many of whom felt inspired by Charlie Kirk, but are unhappy with some of what has happened in the wake of his death.
01:57:48.000And I want to speak directly to that group because I think Charlie is a great example of how to disagree but still participate in the work of saving this country.
01:58:06.000Charlie, ladies and gentlemen, was dedicated to this movement.
01:58:10.000In this country, he loved, and I do mean loved, the President of the United States.
01:58:15.000But in the eight months or so that we were in office before Charlie died, I talked to him a lot, almost every day.
01:58:22.000And Charlie was still a free thinker with his own principles and views.
01:59:03.000Don't give the country over to a bunch of crazy people because you happen to disagree with us on a policy issue here or there.
01:59:11.000Look, I'm not asking anybody to agree with me on every single issue.0.82
01:59:16.000I'm not asking anybody to agree on every single policy of the administration.
01:59:21.000What I am asking you to do is to recognize the contrast with the radicals and recognize the achievements of the last 18 months.
01:59:29.000We have done a lot, my friends, and we can do a lot more if we fight together.
01:59:58.000You know, Donald Trump's administration, it's not just the first government in the last 80 years to actually stop a border invasion, it's the first in the last 80 years to reverse the border invasion.
02:00:16.000Under Donald Trump's leadership, we have seen the foreign born share of our population drop by 3 million people.0.63
02:00:23.000That's illegal aliens that we sent back home.0.96
02:00:32.000Under Donald Trump's leadership, we've created 1 million new jobs.0.78
02:00:37.000And unlike the last administration, where most of the job growth went to illegal aliens, 100% of the job growth in the United States of America is going to American citizens, which is exactly where it belongs.
02:00:56.000For my entire life, I saw corporations ship jobs overseas and be rewarded by Washington.
02:01:02.000Donald Trump is the first president in my lifetime to crack down on people shipping our jobs overseas and fight for American businesses and American workers for a change.
02:01:19.000We've seen the largest drop of violent crime in the history of the United States of America because we back the police and throw the bad guys in prison.
02:01:41.000We have banned corporate tycoons from buying up our housing stock because we hold the simple belief that American homes ought to go to the American people.
02:01:58.000Under the leadership of the President and Bobby Kennedy, we did what generations of Democrat politicians promised but failed to do.
02:02:07.000We actually took on Big Pharma and lowered drug costs for all of our citizens.
02:02:23.000Now, I'm obviously biased, but I think that's a great record of achievement.
02:02:26.000But compare it to the Democrats who want to allow open borders, allow pharma companies to experiment on your kids, they want to raise your taxes, and they want to abolish their family in their own words.
02:02:40.000We just want common sense and we want you to have a better life.
02:02:44.000The contrast in this election, ladies and gentlemen, it's not about this or that policy.
02:02:49.000It's about the party of common sense beating the Party of the crazies.0.89
02:02:54.000Let's send these lunatics pack in and govern our country for the future.0.65
02:03:13.000A few weeks back, I got to visit the steel mill.0.90
02:03:44.000I gotta tell you, a very personal and important thing to me is a few weeks back, one of the most amazing honors I've had as vice president is I got to visit the steel mill where my grandfather worked for 40 years in my hometown of Middletown, Ohio.
02:04:04.000And standing on that floor, I thought about my papaw, that's what I called him, and the 40 years he spent there as a union welder.
02:04:11.000I thought about what he wanted out of this country, out of his government.
02:04:20.000He wanted a government that would look out for him and make sure his people had good jobs so long as they were willing to work hard and play by the rules.
02:04:28.000Simple stuff, easy stuff, common sense, good government stuff.
02:04:33.000And despite everything that's changed since he died, the things he wanted are the things that I want, and I think the things that every American patriot wants for our country.
02:04:44.000We want it for ourselves, we want it for our families, we want it for our children.
02:06:40.000Hell, they're not even the party of Bill Clinton anymore.0.98
02:06:44.000The Democrats are the party of hatred.0.98
02:06:48.000They're the party that despises America and the people who built it.
02:06:53.000They're the party that can find sympathy for the terrorists who perpetrated 9 11, but they say that people with names like James Vance, Are incapable of loving people with names like Usha, and they couldn't be more wrong.0.99
02:07:10.000They just plumb hate white people.0.97
02:08:02.000It's about fighting for our fellow citizens, for their dreams, and for the inheritance of a great nation that all of us are going to leave behind.
02:08:09.000So I've got to ask my fellow Republicans are we ready to do what we need to do in November?
02:08:26.000Every American, whether they've been here for 10 years or 10 minutes, deserves the sacred inheritance of the United States of America.
02:08:35.000Ladies and gentlemen, this November, let's give it to them.
02:14:49.000I'm going to stand on the stage at the end with.
02:14:53.000Our great opera star, Christopher Macchio, and he's going to sing America the Beautiful, Nessa Dorma, and All I Ask of You from the Phantom of the Opera.
02:15:06.000And we're going to have a good time listening to music because I'm getting a little bit tired of politics now.
02:19:16.000We went from the highest prescription drug prices by far anywhere in the world to the lowest prescription drug prices anywhere in the world.
02:19:30.000And that alone should get us a big victory in our midterms that are coming up.
02:20:51.000And if the radical left Democrats and communists win this election, they're promising to confiscate your wealth, tax your social security, abolish no tax on tips, no tax on overtime.
02:21:06.000They're going to defund the police, giving voting rights and welfare to 25.
02:21:12.000Million illegal aliens, destroy Texas oil and gas, thereby doubling and tripling your taxes, have men playing in women's sports, transgender for everybody, the mutilation of your children, and set loose criminals to rape and kill like we had just two years ago.
02:21:36.000What we went through, we went through hell.
02:21:42.000If we win the midterms, we will, on the other hand, Provide a, let's call it Trump dividend, $5,000 for every adult citizen in our country.
02:21:58.000And we can do that because our country has never done better.
02:22:01.000We're taking in trillions, trillions of dollars.
02:22:05.000There's never been any country, not even close, that's come anywhere near.
02:22:11.000So it's five, we win $5,000 for every adult.
02:22:45.000This is the only group I've ever seen.
02:22:46.000They say, We are going to give you a major tax hike.
02:22:50.000But we will end all payments to big health insurance companies and give you the money directly so that you can buy your own health care and have money left over for yourself.
02:31:08.000They say, well, it's a very complicated process.
02:31:11.000They have more lines as to what we want voter ID, we want proof of citizenship, we want honesty in our elections, we want honesty in our So, please raise your right hand. I pledge to the greatest president in the history of the United States.
