On this week's episode of the podcast, we discuss the latest breaking news regarding mail-in voting in the 2020 election, and whether or not there's any evidence of impropriety in the results. We also talk about the possibility of fraud and conspiracy theories surrounding the results of the election.
00:00:33.000The Trump campaign says Pennsylvania, Arizona, and Michigan are going to hold public hearings in the 2020 election where they're going to be going over evidence, allegations.
00:00:43.000And it would seem that there actually is a decent amount.
00:00:45.000But, the other day, when people were saying, you know, Trump approved the transition, and, you know, Pennsylvania got certified, things are all over, I said, I'm not entirely convinced, and there's one big reason, and that is, there's going to be, there is another lawsuit over the constitutionality of mail-in voting.
00:01:00.000So, Sean Parnell, who, you ran in which district, Pittsburgh, but which district was it?
00:01:38.000I mean, look, the election itself was, and I think that anybody that's looking at this in a fair-minded way would tell you that this election was a nightmare, right?
00:01:48.000It's the first time that any, you know, major country has used universal mail-in voting at a scale like we have.
00:01:58.000And there were abnormalities and statistical irregularities and anomalies in almost every state that it was used in, so I think the American people have a right to be suspicious of the process given that it was the first time it was ever used.
00:02:15.000Most European countries have banned universal mail-in voting or the mail-in ballot because of the propensity for fraud.
00:02:25.000Before we get started with everything, subscribe, smash the like button, hit the notification bell, because we're just going to dive in.
00:02:30.000But that being said, again, like button, subscribe.
00:02:34.000Canada apparently doesn't even use any of this stuff.
00:02:36.000So like you've got Dominion voting which there was like some hubbub Everyone's got these theories about what Dominion is doing But it's really funny because in Canada there was this tweet where they said like some official Canadian account said no We do everything by paper and we have three scrutineers who watch to make sure everything is done You know perfectly and securely in the u.s.
00:02:54.000We have a course a mishmash of random systems across the board.
00:02:57.000They're all different You mentioned mail-in voting Um, and you know, it's insecure and things like that, or it's never been tried before, but the bigger issue is that it was implemented at the last minute.
00:03:09.000It was an 11th hour election rule change.
00:03:48.000And that would require, you know, if people wanted a ballot, they could request a ballot via an application
00:03:55.000and apply for an absentee, no-excuse absentee ballot for no reason.
00:03:59.000We embraced that program, or did the best that we could to embrace that program.
00:04:04.000I think Republicans are inherently, and many independents as well, and certainly some Democrats are inherently suspicious of that program because they like to show up and vote in person, right?
00:04:14.000But we embraced the program during the campaign.
00:04:17.000It was something that we, hey, make sure you mail in your absentee vote.
00:04:20.000Um, but the problem is, you know, after the election, when we started doing some digging, you know, starting at the very beginning, right?
00:04:29.000Because again, I've already made the point that I feel like the election was kind of a nightmare, an organizational nightmare.
00:04:35.000And you alluded to it where different states have different systems and everything was implemented at the last minute.
00:04:41.000And so we started at the very beginning and we started looking at Act 77 and there's something that became manifestly apparent to us.
00:04:48.000was that Act 77 was implemented in an unconstitutional way.
00:04:54.000The Pennsylvania state constitution is very clear when it comes to absentee voting.
00:05:01.000There are four different categories for it.
00:05:03.000It's actually quite specific in what defines an absentee vote.
00:05:09.000And to change the Pennsylvania Constitution to an election overhaul requires two votes in a state legislative session back-to-back.
00:05:20.000So the General Assembly would have to vote on Act 77, right, the universal no-excuse absentee program in Pennsylvania, twice, advertise it in two different newspapers for three months, and then put it on the ballot so that the people vote on it.
00:05:34.000So they couldn't even change it until after Election Day.
00:05:37.000So the constitutional amendment process in the state of Pennsylvania, and I think even for the federal constitution, is lengthy and onerous.
00:05:59.000The PA state legislature, and I think the governor, knew that.
00:06:02.000And they started the constitutional amendment process, but they stopped it.
00:06:05.000And they just passed the law, the government signed it, the governor signed it, and we implemented a law, what I personally believe is an unconstitutional law, because we did not amend the constitution appropriately and give the people a voice in the process.
00:06:19.000So to start off, just to get to the key point, you are part of a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of mail-in voting in Pennsylvania.
00:07:03.000I think that, you know, this is kind of just how our system works, right?
00:07:09.000Sometimes, you know, laws are implemented and they've been implemented for a while and after they've been on the books for a while, we realize that they're unconstitutional.
00:07:17.000I think that it's fair to say some people in the legislature knew it might have constitutional problems.
00:07:25.000For example, I'll tell you, Governor Wolf and Attorney General Shapiro and even, you know, Conor Lamb.
00:08:32.000But those ballots, you know, the law itself, Act 77 itself, is clearly, in my opinion, unconstitutional.
00:08:41.000And so the point that we make in the lawsuit, and we're not, again, we're not trying to disenfranchise 2.5 million people who cast a mail-in.
00:08:47.000I think that when laws are passed, Citizens have reason.
00:08:53.000They believe that laws are in fact lawfully passed, right?
00:08:56.000They just adhere to the system that is given to them.
00:09:00.000But the point that we're making in the lawsuit is that PA state legislature, along with the governor of Pennsylvania, disenfranchised All voters.
00:09:10.000Not just people that mailed in a ballot.
00:09:14.000I'm talking Democrat, Independent and Republican.
00:09:16.000Every voter in the state of Pennsylvania, in my opinion, was disenfranchised because an unconstitutional law was passed.
00:09:22.000And this lawsuit For me, it does not seek to change a past election, right?
00:09:28.000What I'm looking to do is to make sure that we reform elections moving forward, right?
00:09:34.000There needs to be systems in place to make sure that we protect the will of the people and that every vote is counted.
00:09:40.000Now, by the way, even people who voted against me, right?
00:09:45.000Our constitutional system of government is important.
00:09:48.000Our constitution either means something or it doesn't.
00:09:52.000What I'm trying to do is re-establish some constitutional integrity when it comes to our elections and make sure that if you want to establish A mail-in ballot program.
00:10:06.000If you want Act 77 to pass, pass it the right way.
00:10:11.000Give the people of this state a say in the process.
00:10:14.000That is outlined and prescribed in the PA State Constitution.
00:10:17.000That's what the whole point of the lawsuit is.
00:10:19.000I don't think it necessarily matters what your goal is, what you're requesting in terms of a lawsuit, because I think a judge will determine whether you can or can't disenfranchise, or whether the remedy is you have to.
00:10:30.000So I think about beyond this, what might happen, I have no idea.
00:11:36.000Once we answer that question, our lawsuits specifically, now again, we throw some, you know, because the court specifically asked, how would you fix this, right?
00:11:44.000So we threw a couple things in there about, you know, how it could be fixed, right?
00:11:48.000But we specifically defer to the court.
00:11:51.000Expertise on helping to remedy the situation.
00:11:54.000And again, this is exactly how our system of government was designed.
00:11:58.000And people, I'm telling you, the liberals in this state, from Tom Wolf, the Attorney General Shapiro, to Conor Lamb, all attack me about wanting to throw out votes.
00:12:54.000You look at what's happening in our country, the reason why this fight is important is that if we don't fight this now, Tim, if we don't bring this argument to the court now, the people of the state of Pennsylvania will be at the whims of a legislature that could write a law and crown and impose it on the people.
00:13:38.000And so I'm proud of the lawsuit because I know moving forward, If we can bring a level of reform to elections in the state of Pennsylvania, it would be good for everybody.
00:13:49.000If there's some kind of relief, like throw out the election, do another one.
00:13:53.000That's going to throw the presidential election into question as well.
00:13:57.000Again, I don't know that a judge will do that.
00:14:01.000There have been instances in the past, like a congressional election in North Carolina, where there was evidence of fraud or ballot harvesting and a judge threw it out and said, do it again.
00:14:16.000But there was also a presidential election that wasn't really that long ago, a couple decades ago, I think, where like one state was called into question and they just got no electoral votes issued or something like that.
00:14:25.000You would know better than me, Tim, I think.
00:14:26.000I was just reading something about it.
00:14:28.000My primary goal here is to protect the will of the people and to protect our Constitution and making sure that we don't pass unconstitutional laws.
00:14:36.000And look, I know a lot of people in the PA state legislature.
00:14:40.000A lot of those men and women are my friends.
00:14:48.000It's about doing things the right way.
00:14:50.000The most important part of the constitutional process in terms of overhauling our electoral system in Pennsylvania is giving the people a say in how they want their elections conducted.
00:15:37.000And I'll tell you, I don't want to get too off topic.
00:15:41.000Seeing the shift in how the media treated President Trump for four years to now how they're treating Joe Biden is sickening and they're shameless.
00:15:51.000They said Donald Trump, they all have this new line they're pushing where they said Donald Trump was like drinking Tabasco for four years.
00:15:58.000Oh, I saw, yeah, they keep using that line.
00:16:00.000Joe Biden is like sipping unflavored almond milk.
00:16:03.000And my response was actually, Joe Biden is like, when you're really thirsty, so you go to the fridge and you're like, you know, maybe I have to work out, and you open the fridge and there's nothing in there, just milk, and you're like, I'll just drink the milk.
00:16:12.000You grab it, you crack it, you start chugging it, and all of a sudden you notice something thick, and you're like, wait, there's a chunk in there, and you pull it down, and you go, oh, it's spoiled, and then you run to the sink and start barfing all over the place.
00:16:36.000About 50% of the people didn't know about the Hunter Biden story, and if they knew about it, 9% of the people would shift their vote away from him.
00:17:29.000If you told me in 2016 that President Trump was 10 million more people were going to vote for the guy, but it wasn't going to be enough because Joe Biden was going to get 80 million votes.
00:18:34.00085% of which is, you know, 85% of Allegheny County north of the city of Pittsburgh is in my district.
00:18:38.000Now, Joe Biden got the second highest voter turnout in Allegheny County in the history of this country.
00:18:44.000Second only to Lyndon B. Johnson in 1964, okay, when 30% more people lived in Allegheny County.
00:18:49.000Okay, when 30% more people lived in Allegheny County Wow 30% more populace and but he got he got the second
00:18:58.000highest vote total just a couple thousand votes So people are rightfully suspicious of that process.
00:19:03.000And then you combine that with mail-in voting.
00:19:07.000And it makes people wonder, like 70 plus million people in this country.
00:19:12.000And this is part of the reason why this lawsuit is so important, because if we don't set some parameters to our electoral system in this country, right?
00:19:26.00070 plus million people in this country will never trust an election again.
00:19:30.000I think we're at, you know, I'm, I'm seeing people say there's some people saying don't vote Republican in Georgia because the Republicans aren't supporting Trump.
00:19:39.000Then I'm seeing other people say, no, no, no, no, don't give up.
00:19:40.000You have to, you have to stop them from taking the Senate.
00:19:43.000But, uh, a lot of people are just saying why if they cheated now, they'll cheat them.
00:19:48.000Well, so the point is, number one, we can't allow that to happen because our country means something.
00:19:53.000Our country is the greatest benevolent force that's ever existed on the face of the planet.
00:19:58.000Our country is a bright beacon of hope for people.
00:20:01.000You know, I want my kids to grow up in a country that is rich with opportunity and vibrant and free, like a country that I had when I was a kid.
00:20:10.000I want my kids to be able to put a skate park in their freaking garage if they work hard enough.
00:20:16.000I want that for my kids, but right now that's at risk.
00:20:21.000It's funny how people treat me publicly, at least the left, like I'm just some sort of run-of-the-mill politician that would love to make a career in government.
00:20:32.000I've got a pretty great life in the private sector.
00:20:34.000The president called me off the sidelines.
00:20:38.000Serving the people of the state of Pennsylvania, or the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, or the people of PA-17 would be the greatest honor of my life.
00:21:30.000Because they said the Electoral College will go away forever.
00:21:34.000We have to win those two Senate seats in Georgia.
00:21:39.000And if we win those two Senate seats in Georgia, I think we'll likely pick up more seats in 2022.
00:21:46.000But in the meantime, we have to fight to protect our electoral system.
00:21:52.000So make sure that people have faith in them.
00:21:54.000So yeah, I'm willing to get up on the parapet.
00:21:57.000And take shots from Republicans and Democrats because, you know, the Republicans are mad at me because the PA state legislature that passed Act 77 were largely Republican controlled.
00:22:07.000Again, I don't think they knew that it was unconstitutional.
00:22:09.000I think that they were just trying to make the system better.
00:22:24.000Well, what they did- That is damning evidence.
00:22:26.000We make the distinction in our lawsuit is that they changed the name from absentee to mail-in, right?
00:22:33.000But what they did was make a distinction, and we make this case, they made a distinction without there being a difference, if that makes sense, right?
00:22:44.000Yeah, they just claimed the distinction, but they're the same thing.
00:22:46.000And so the idea is, you know, and so I'll also make another point, you know, and this is a message to the, if Act 77 is in fact deemed unconstitutional, and I really hope and pray that it will be, President Trump was the first president to win the state of Pennsylvania since Ronald Reagan.
00:23:07.000Yeah, the first Republican to win since Ronald Reagan.
00:23:10.000And after 2016, between 2016 and 2020, Republicans in the PA state legislature said, you know what, let's just change the whole system, right?
00:23:37.000I don't think Attorney General Shapiro wins.
00:23:39.000I think I, you know, I probably, I win, you know.
00:23:43.000The mail-in ballot program, and here's another thing.
00:23:47.000I don't think that the Republicans in the PA state legislature expected Governor Wolf to remove every safeguard that makes mail-in voting safe.
00:23:56.000I think that's a very important point to make.
00:24:30.000I don't want to put words in their mouth, but what they're asserting is widespread voter fraud.
00:24:34.000That they found in Georgia a thousand plus votes that had commercial addresses with apartment numbers listed to trick, essentially, the system into thinking these non-residential addresses were actually residential.
00:24:45.000Sounds like that person should not, like, is not a real person voting.
00:24:50.000So I wonder, though, in Pennsylvania, you've said people are rightfully suspicious.
00:24:55.000We did talk a little bit before the show, but I'm wondering if you think there was fraud, or if you've seen anything.
00:25:00.000Well, I will say that there are definite anomalies.
00:25:08.000And just today, I saw what looks to be pretty compelling evidence of voter fraud, a combination of voter fraud and ballot harvesting in nursing homes in Beaver County.
00:25:20.000Now, Beaver County is 100% in my district.
00:25:24.000And we noticed, actually, it was the Republican chairman of Beaver County, his name's Jim Christiana, along with the sheriff, Tony Guy, two great, great people.
00:25:34.000They noticed that there are a lot of people in nursing homes in Beaver County that had requested a ballot, filled out a ballot, and returned it all on the same day.
00:25:47.000I mean, maybe somebody delivers the ballots and people fill it out, but... No, but like, if you request it, did someone just run over, like, make a phone call, like about, and they run and give it to you?
00:26:26.000And of the four nursing home facilities that he looked at, the handwriting matches were in batches, but these were all These were all union controlled nursing homes where the signatures and the handwriting was exactly the same.
00:27:55.000He's the Republican chairman of Beaver County and along with Tony Guy, who is the sheriff out in Beaver County.
00:28:01.000So what have you done with the evidence?
00:28:05.000He called me, Jim called me about this last night, told me about it last night, showed me the evidence this morning, and what Jim is going to do, along with Tony, again, who is the sheriff, is in all likelihood turn the evidence over to the District Attorney Dave Lozier out in Beaver County, another great human being.
00:28:26.000And they're going to pass that information to the U.S.
00:28:29.000Attorney in the Western District of Pennsylvania.
00:28:35.000Look, again, if we aren't talking about this stuff right now, it never comes to light and the likelihood of it happening again is very high.
00:30:46.000We have reached an impasse, where no matter what you do, you're going to set off tens of millions of people.
00:30:53.000It sounds like, based on what I read about your lawsuit, it sounds like you're correct.
00:30:57.000I'm not a lawyer, but based on the stories that I read and going through it, your lawsuit about the constitutionality of mail-in ballots, yeah, sounds like they couldn't do that.
00:31:05.000Sounds like they knew they couldn't and they tried changing some words to get around it, and that creates a problem where now the Democrats are saying, we won, and you're saying, uh, this is the Republicans' fault.
00:31:16.000The Republicans passed this, this Act 77.
00:31:20.000I am careful to say it's their fault, because again, Tim, there are laws that are passed that are unconstitutional, that are on the books for years, and we don't realize that they're unconstitutional for years later.
00:31:30.000So my point is, this is how our system of government is intended to work.
00:31:33.000Sometimes we don't always know if a law is unconstitutional or not, and that's why we rely on the courts.
00:31:38.000I don't mean like it was intentional, but it is their fault.
00:31:41.000If they passed a law that was unconstitutional and it causes problems with the election, where it's gotta be thrown out, ballots are... Well, well, but let's not let Governor Wolf off the hook.
00:32:29.000As much as the media would want to write those sensationalist headlines and the left is attacking me for wanting to throw out those ballots, that's not true.
00:32:37.000But you'll notice in their attacks, they're not addressing whether Act 77 is constitutional.
00:32:43.000So it sounds like we're at a point where These ballots are no good.
00:32:49.000The election was no good in a lot of ways.
00:33:06.000You don't see smoke, you just hear the alarm.
00:33:07.000So we call 911 figuratively, and we say, hey, we're hearing an alarm go off, and the response we get is, do you have evidence of widespread fire?
00:33:15.000No, but the smoke alarm is going off, and they're like, well, we only come out if there's evidence of widespread- no, no, no, no.
00:33:20.000When I hear the smoke alarm, you come out to check if there's fire.
00:33:23.000So if we're seeing these anomalies, these signatures, these stacks of ballots, the FBI has to come in, or whichever agency, and actually launch an investigation.
00:33:33.000And they better do it PDQ, because we have deadlines.
00:33:36.000And then the problem is, if they don't, and now we're getting reports we're gonna have these hearings in three states.
00:33:42.000If these hearings, we actually get hard evidence presented, they're going to go over affidavits.
00:33:47.000And I'll tell you, during the Michigan certification hearings, we had a guy call and rattle off a list of evidence of impropriety and potential fraud, and they ignore it.
00:33:56.000What's going to happen then, if you don't investigate, is all the legal challenges saying, you were made aware of this, you didn't investigate, we want an injunction.
00:34:05.000This is what people need to realize, is that courts are humans, and so even if something is technically correct, they might not allow it.
00:34:15.000So there was one of the cases Trump lost, the judge basically said, you're right, but we're not going to disenfranchise, so in the future we'll just do it better.
00:34:25.000That's called perspective, and I'm not a lawyer, but that's called perspective relief.
00:34:29.000And so that could be one of the scenarios in this lawsuit with Act 77.
00:34:33.000They could say, yeah, 2020 was fubar, right?
00:34:43.00073, 74 million Trump voters would say, no.
00:34:47.000If they say right now in any capacity that this is unconstitutional, but we're going to let it stand, it's going to be, I don't even know how to describe what's going to happen.
00:35:51.000I feel like you've always got to err on the side of Some kind of remedy against, some kind of system against impropriety or malicious intent.
00:36:03.000If there's a certification process and the electronic filing system goes down, then the court should be like, nope, no certification because you can't have, you know, emergency court filings being blocked or unable to process while someone's slipping through some major, you know, Yeah, and Tim, we weren't asking the court to block certification to overturn an election.
00:36:24.000We were blocking certification so that it would give us time to make our argument, right?
00:36:29.000And again, we were hoping to have time to make an argument to the court.
00:36:35.000And have them give some sort of decision or remedy as to what to do with Act 77.
00:36:42.000Because again, we believe that it disenfranchised all voters, not just people that mailed in a ballot.
00:37:19.000I mean, for a lot of other states, I would imagine it's the same thing, or similar in some capacity.
00:37:24.000I can't, I was, like I was mentioning earlier, surprised to, you know, when they were making all these sweeping changes, to hear that courts were agreeing with it.
00:37:32.000Eleventh-hour election changes, and of course, Democrats were very much okay with it.
00:37:38.000And you mentioned this to me on the show when you came in the first time, that, well, they believe it's going to help them with what you said.
00:37:47.000Believe me when I tell you, if Democrats thought that mail-in balloting would disproportionately help Republicans, they would be so against it.
00:37:56.000And so, here's the interesting thing about that.
00:38:00.000The PA state constitution, there is like an emergency provision where the governor and the legislature could invoke some sort of emergency power to overhaul an election system in the middle of an emergency like a pandemic to keep people safe, but they didn't do it.
00:38:35.000It's like, right away, someone's gonna be like, please stop, I'll just sign whatever you want.
00:38:38.000And then after the fact, they signed sworn affidavits saying they rescind their votes, and they were like, too bad, it's too late, you can't do anything.
00:38:43.000And it's the stupidest thing, because what people need to understand is that we don't live in a computer.
00:38:52.000Meaning, here's what people don't get about contracts, right?
00:38:56.000They have this movie-esque understanding of how contract law works, where it's like, if I take out a piece of paper and says, Sean Parnell signs over all of his assets to me, sign it, it's not going to hold up in court.
00:39:06.000The judge is going to be like, get out of here!
00:39:21.000You can't put someone under duress to get them to sign a document and have it be upheld in court, especially when you can clearly prove it.
00:39:27.000The crazy thing about Michigan is that I was watching the actual hearing they had.
00:39:32.000When I went to the State Board of Canvassers, and one of these guys, his name is Aaron Van Langeveld, I think his name is, was just absolutely ignoring the evidence presented, or I should say the claims of evidence that people were calling in saying, here's a document, here's the individual, here's the law.
00:39:50.000And no matter what anyone said to him, he was like, I have to certify.
00:39:55.000One guy read him the law like 10 times and he's like, it says for any necessary purpose to certify, meaning to ascertain the truthfulness, you can adjourn.
00:40:46.000You draw your own conclusions there for the Commonwealth Court.
00:40:50.000The electronic filing system was down.
00:40:51.000People need to understand that when you're watching Donald Trump fight tooth and nail with the variety of lawsuits he has, the Democrats aren't sitting around doing nothing.
00:41:00.000They've got their version of fighting, and I suppose in some places, like Pennsylvania, it's ramming through certification before anyone realizes what's happening.
00:41:15.000Because I was tracking certification of all these states, and I'm like, Michigan is this day, here's what we're waiting for at the State Board of Canvassers.
00:41:21.000And then I thought Pennsylvania was going to be way later.
00:41:25.000And then I'm watching, you know, in Michigan too, and it's the same thing.
00:41:28.000It's these weird... The Democrats' strategy has been the entire time...
00:41:34.000You know what, I'm gonna be careful in the words that I use, but since the beginning of the, uh, even before 2016, I remember I was in San Jose, California, I think it was in 2015, maybe 20, I think it was 2015, maybe 2016, and I watched a guy walking out of a Trump rally, just minding his own business, people were screaming at him, and he looked all confused, and someone runs up behind him and smacked him in the back of the head with some bag full of heavy objects, and it cut him pretty bad, and he was bleeding, and he was all like, what's happening?
00:42:00.000Since that day, and before, but for me, since that day, I've been watching them basically say to anybody who supports Republicans or Trump, we will physically hurt you, we will physically hurt your family, we will destroy your life, we will target your job, if you dare say anything.
00:44:40.000So secret Trump voters existed, a lot of them.
00:44:44.000And it was because of, in my opinion, many reasons, but the threats of the left to take your job away from you, that these people weren't going around explaining to others why they should vote for Trump as well.
00:44:54.000So I know a bunch of celebrities Who have hit me up saying, you know, if anybody ever found out I was a Trump supporter, my career would be over.
00:45:00.000And I've said indirectly, you're a coward.
00:45:04.000Because you're going to wake up one day, Trump is going to lose, and you're going to say, if only I risked more.
00:45:10.000And instead, you are willing to sacrifice what you think this country needs for yourself.
00:45:16.000But this is not to not to drag those who are scared of the left.
00:45:20.000But the strategy of the Democrats the whole time has been partly because I would say there's a lot of activist groups, but Democratic activists know they've threatened people.
00:46:48.000And you know, in many instances and you know, you give me thought you give me your thoughts on this, but war happens when the speaking stops when that when the ability to shore.
00:46:56.000When the ability to control someone or get what you want ends with negotiation, they find another way to do it.
00:47:01.000Yeah, they say that war is like the last 25 yards of foreign policy or something like that.
00:47:22.000But for me, it's not about having been in charge of soldiers' lives where every decision that you make might mean if it's a bad decision that somebody goes home
00:47:45.000Leadership is about taking the power that's bestowed upon you and giving it
00:47:50.000back to the people that you lead, right?
00:47:54.000And empowering them to do what they believe in their hearts is right.
00:47:58.000And so that's how I see the job of Politician right and I hate that word in fact every time I say it I throw up in my mouth a little bit but for me this job like my ultimate goal like Having if I ever win an election in my life would be to go to Washington hit the reset button on everything And then move back to Western Pennsylvania and like buy a farm and never talk to anybody else again when the mission is complete right because I am not
00:48:26.000You know, being a politician in Washington, while it would be a tremendous honor to represent the people, that's not like the pinnacle of my life's ambition.
00:48:35.000You know, the challenge is the war is never ending.
00:48:37.000You know, in in in actual warfare, you can take the ground and then you're like, we got it.
00:48:42.000secure it we're good or whatever or you know the war can be ended
00:48:45.000But in terms of politics, there's always pushback.
00:48:47.000So you get into Congress and you say, hey, we're going to stop these things are unconstitutional.
00:48:51.000They're pushing back the whole time, endlessly.
00:48:54.000Yeah, and the thing about the left is that they know how to fight.
00:50:29.000But a guy named Ritz Fitzgerald, who is the ranking member of the Board of Elections, went out and did a media blitz instead and said, we're confident that when the election is done and the ballots are counted, Congressman Lamb is going to have a two percentage point lead.
00:50:46.000And I'm sitting there with my team thinking, well, that takes some gumption.
00:51:04.000Because we knew how many mail-in ballots there were for Lamb, for me, and independents.
00:51:09.000And we said if Lamb got everything he was supposed to get, and I got everything I was supposed to get, and we split independents, even give him 60% of independents, he had no mathematical path.
00:51:16.000We'd have a margin of victory of just over 13,000 votes.
00:51:21.000People were calling us to congratulate us.
00:51:24.000I think a couple of news outlets called the race for us because, again, there was no honest mathematical path.
00:52:03.000Like 25 minutes later, listen, like 25 minutes later, he scampers out to the podium and declares victory.
00:52:08.000Now there are still 25,000 ballots left to count.
00:52:12.000Like not, not mail-ins, like provisionals and things like that.
00:52:15.000And in Beaver County and Butler County, how are you going out and declaring victory with a razor thin margin of like a thousand votes at that point?
00:52:24.000Unless you know something that I don't.
00:52:26.000What did he do before he ran for Congress?
00:53:15.000But like so... And so on a smaller scale, right?
00:53:18.000So when you're talking about... The same thing that happened to me on a smaller scale happened to the president in places like Milwaukee and Detroit and Philadelphia.
00:53:30.000When you're talking about Beaver County, these 2,000 ballots, that could change your election.
00:53:35.000Well, I don't know if it would be enough to change the election, but I will say in a few hours time, they found 2,000 ballots that were very questionable.
00:53:50.000Now, if we had more time, Looking more nursing home facilities.
00:53:56.0008,000 votes in a race where 440,000 people voted.
00:54:04.000Are you going to call for a hard audit?
00:54:07.000The Pennsylvania State Legislature called for one and then they had a committee and they said, oh, you know what?
00:54:13.000We can't find a contractor to do it in 60 to 90 days, so we can't do the audit.
00:54:18.000But can't you do something about that?
00:54:20.000We're trying to raise money, an election defense fund money, and we're certainly doing that with the lawsuit with Act 77, as we talked about.
00:54:28.000We need to look at each and every ballot.
00:54:45.000You could personally find a ballot that has never been folded, that looks machine-printed, and the Democrats will call you a liar.
00:54:53.000You could actually have a legitimate argument, this is unconstitutional and we didn't know until now, and they'll say, you're just trying to cheat the election.
00:56:02.000Republicans end up losing because they didn't cheat.
00:56:06.000Well, I mean, what happens is, is what, what happens is, is that, you know, out in California where ballot harvesting and stuff is legal, is that two election cycles later, Republicans catch up and fight the way that they fight.
00:56:21.000And then we start winning again, but then you're like, then, then it's like, but, but, but there's no election.
00:56:25.000But is it an election or are we just playing a game?
00:56:27.000But it's not just that, it's that you don't have the media on your side to control and manipulate narratives.
00:56:39.000One of the quotes I heard is that Republicans care about winning elections and Democrats care about winning control of cultural institutions.
00:56:44.000Because politics is downstream from culture.
00:57:17.000There's a creative side to me that I think a lot of conservatives don't have.
00:57:23.000You know, Democrats are very good at making emotionally resonant political arguments, right?
00:57:31.000Martin Luther King was an amazing cultural icon.
00:57:36.000I have a dream speech inspired 500,000 people to show up on the Washington Mall without emails or cell phones, right?
00:57:44.000But I have a dream was not I have a 10-point plan.
00:57:46.000This is like I'm stealing a little bit from Simon Sinek here, but my point is that I feel like Republicans need to get better at making emotionally compelling arguments and not trotting out a 10-point plan.
00:57:57.000And so the Democrats end up with people who win power by promising, you know, whispering sweet nothings into the ears of their constituents.
01:00:16.000That's why they, I think that's why they added it, because they were like, when they were doing the test, like, we don't care about any of that.
01:00:21.000Just let me be free and just do whatever you want.
01:00:24.000To like, very strange degrees, but like, sanctity is one.
01:00:29.000So this is like respecting the family and, you know, things like innocence and protecting kids.
01:00:37.000That's probably loyalty, but it's probably a combination.
01:01:25.000Both Republicans and Democrats changed the rules and played fast and loose with the will of the people.
01:01:31.000And now that's the best thing they can do.
01:01:32.000It's why they say this is what I love.
01:01:34.000Trump's the fascist, the fascist who's signing peace agreements, withdrawing our troops from the Middle East and who did not invoke the insurrection act to go crush protesting and rioting.
01:01:45.000If you told me, after having spent enough time in Afghanistan to legally vote in that country, I swear, if you told me that President Trump was going to sign Middle East peace deals and come closer to Middle East peace than any other president in my lifetime, I wouldn't have believed you.
01:02:26.000Almost every demographic has lived a better life under this president.
01:02:30.000Again, he performed better with Latinos and African-Americans.
01:02:32.000The president, as part of his agenda, has been Lifting up the African-American community with Opportunity Zones and funding historically black colleges.
01:02:40.000This guy has done more for this country and gets absolutely no credit.
01:03:28.000In Newark, New Jersey, the mayor was saying they didn't want, no, you couldn't leave your home.
01:03:32.000Did you see the police, you know, who I love and I'm a big supporter of, but did you see the police, like, arresting that guy who violated curfew?
01:03:41.000They're like, get your hands in the cuffs.
01:03:43.000And he's like, there's like 20 of you on me.
01:04:09.0003,000 no masks, 3,000 with masks, and the people that wore masks changed out their masks every single day.
01:04:16.000And you know what the media says in this country about the study who determines that their masks don't really help, in fact they can put you at more of a risk?
01:04:25.000The media in this country is like, well, you know, What the study actually means is that we need to wear more masks.
01:04:31.000How can you possibly come to that conclusion?
01:05:09.000But, like, most young people lack the experience to understand why we... You know, I hear these... It's really funny when you see all these young people who are for socialist policies, and I mean literal socialist policies, not social democratic or like... I'm talking about these democratic socialists who want to give the means of production to the working class, when these people are not the working class.
01:05:34.000You look at these DSA meetings, the Democratic Socialists of America, and you see a bunch of, like, 20-somethings who don't actually do the hard labor jobs.
01:05:44.000They're the, you know, upper-middle class suburbanites claiming that they should give the control of, you know, the means of production to the people.
01:05:53.000But then you see, when they actually do say stuff like, healthcare is a human right, Like, how is it possible that someone else's labor is your right?
01:06:02.000Now, I certainly think we can do our best to make sure that we grant healthcare to more people, because I'm actually a fan of, like, base-level universal healthcare, which would be if you break your arm, if you get the flu or something, you can go in and you don't gotta worry about it.
01:06:16.000So that way we make sure that people aren't dying in the streets, that people aren't getting serious deformity, you know, serious, like, you know, long-term permanent damage.
01:06:23.000I totally agree there needs to be a safety net for everybody.
01:06:25.000But the issue is, when it comes to rare and exotic diseases or genetic ailments that are hard to cure, we can't guarantee it as a right.
01:06:57.000There's, the building codes have to be upheld.
01:06:59.000You can't just take a mentally ill person, not all homeless people, but some, and this is what they don't understand, because a lot of young people don't have the experience or the understanding, and I mean it with no disrespect, they just, they have, like, you know, I spent my early 20s working at homeless shelters.
01:07:12.000And then I actually learned, wow, homelessness has nothing to do with laziness or, for the most part, unemployment.
01:07:17.000Typically, it's an issue of mental health.
01:07:19.000And it's really hard to solve that problem.
01:08:17.000Well, and you talked about healthcare.
01:08:18.000I mean, you talked about having a base level of care for everybody, which I think is important.
01:08:22.000But I would like to see, you know, we do association healthcare plans for businesses to allow small businesses to band together to have the same purchasing powers, large corporations.
01:08:32.000But if it's me, like, let's take it a step further, right?
01:08:35.000And let's say, let's let individuals band together of a certain age, maybe with certain healthcare needs, have it all be app-based technology.
01:08:43.000And so, individuals band together for certain plans, take it a step further.
01:08:47.000That way, healthcare becomes affordable for everybody.
01:08:50.000And people can have, you know, there's more competition, there's more flexibility.
01:08:54.000This is the interesting thing about healthcare, too, is, you know, I think Trump Trump did this, right, where they have to show the prices for... Yeah, that'll take place January something, 2021.
01:09:22.000Prescription drug prices in this country, I don't know how we got on this topic, but they're way too high.
01:09:25.000Just talking about the left offering up simple solutions to complex problems.
01:09:28.000Well, so with the left, I mean, one of the things that the left did was sign a prescription drugs government price control bill, basically.
01:10:10.000I think, you know, with Trump, what's really interesting, a lot of the things we started seeing implemented by businesses such as a four-day work week, two-week vacation, increased wages, those happened naturally due to a great economy.
01:11:31.000Well, that doesn't, that, that does not surprise me because many of these politicians have never done anything else but hold political office.
01:11:43.000And Joe Biden been in, been in politics for 47 years has been on the wrong side of literally every major decision that he's ever had to make literally oppose the Obama, the Osama bin Laden raid.
01:11:58.000Someone said he lost to Dukakis in 87.
01:12:09.000I mean, even Robert Gates, who's Barack Obama's secretary of defense, said that he was on the he's been on the wrong side of every major foreign policy decision for his whole career.
01:12:24.000I think very few people actually voted for Joe Biden, and this is one of the scariest ideas.
01:12:30.000That people voted to basically have no president.
01:12:33.000That is one of the scariest things, in my opinion.
01:12:38.000I think a president could have a pretty strong platform if he said, you know what, I'm going to stay out of your life.
01:12:44.000I'm going to do everything I can for the next eight years to limit the size and scope of the government and do everything I can to keep government out of your life.
01:12:54.000Because personally, I believe that there's a direct correlation between a small federal government and more freedom in our lives.
01:13:01.000So I do have a libertarian streak in me in that regard where the more freedom we have in our day-to-day lives to pursue life, liberty, pursuit of happiness, and whatever that means for each individual is going to be different.
01:13:12.000I think it's part of our job as leaders to give people the ability to do that, right?
01:13:20.000So you've got basically all these Democrats, Joe Biden included, using the Green New Deal as a framework.
01:13:26.000They genuinely believe two important things.
01:13:29.000The first is that humans can't be trusted to be free.
01:13:34.000They view what's happening in the world with consumerism and global warming as evidence that a human making free choice makes a bad choice.
01:14:20.000Decentralization and networks, we know how it works.
01:14:23.000You can have 10,000 computers be as powerful as one supercomputer.
01:14:27.000So when you have capitalism, which is individuals choosing what they need at the micro level, you get a fast-developing, growing, and advancing society.
01:14:35.000But these people believe the world is in dire straits and in peril and on the verge of collapse due to overpopulation and global warming.
01:14:41.000So that combined, you know, leads them to the idea that only they can intervene to stop the silly dumb people.
01:14:50.000You get lockdowns, you get things like the World Economic Forum's, you know, they announced the Great Reset, you know, resetting global capitalism.
01:14:58.000Well, I mean, you know, When the World Health Organization has come out against lockdowns that may, you know, I mean, do you trust the World Health Organization?
01:16:18.000I'm all about having a surgical pandemic response, directing resources where they need to go, like maybe not mandating that nursing homes take COVID-positive patients.
01:17:52.000Many of these small businesses, they can't afford another lockdown.
01:17:56.000Many of these small businesses invested thousands of dollars into safety mechanisms for outdoor dining, for example, that now it's shut down.
01:18:20.000When you have these people who are telling us the world is ending, doing these conferences, saying it's going to end, propping up individuals, screaming, the end is near and things like that.
01:18:29.000And then COVID happens and they say, you're allowed to riot.
01:18:33.000Not explicitly, but yeah, the DAs were releasing- Well, well, well, you know, like Trump supporters weren't allowed to actually do any protests.
01:18:59.000It helped drive out customers and small business and tourism, which there was very little of in the first place.
01:19:05.000So basically, you get the COVID lockdown.
01:19:07.000And what it does is it strips ownership and wealth away from the working class and sends it directly to Amazon, to Walmart, to Target, to major multinational corporations.
01:19:17.000Well, Jeff Bezos' net worth increased by billions of dollars during the pandemic.
01:19:21.000Because when all the stores are locked down, you got one place to go.
01:19:25.000You want to order stuff on Amazon, I guess, or, you know, Netflix went up.
01:19:28.000So all of these massive companies started taking.
01:19:31.000When you own your small business, they shut you down by force.
01:19:35.000And then your savings dwindle, and eventually you can't pay, you lose your ownership of everything, and then you're buying from big box stores.
01:19:43.000If that didn't finish you off, because there were still many stores that stayed open because they had savings, or they had hard goods that didn't expire, weren't perishable, then the riots showed up, and across the country smashed the windows and stole everything.
01:19:56.000There's a video out of, I think it was Seattle, or no, maybe it was Seattle or Portland, Where some Antifa guys smashed their way into a toy store and stole vintage collectibles with a lot of money.
01:20:07.000Making sure that hard goods that actually gain value with age, those are gone too.
01:20:13.000So everything it seems that they've been pushing through is just destroying the economy.
01:20:18.000And then you look at New York, where they're shutting down schools.
01:21:45.000So this was actually a journalist track that said right around the time Bernie Sanders became a millionaire, he stopped saying the millionaires and started only saying the billionaires.
01:22:50.000If I had to make a choice just based off of that limited information, I'll choose the guy who was rich and lost money being president over the guy who was working class and became a millionaire and whose family became wealthy through him being in government.
01:23:19.000He has a dream life, but he's he's in this because I think he believes in the greatness of America and Yeah, well, I think these other, I think the Democrats don't, and I think it's not just the Democrats.
01:23:29.000I think what happened was we had rhinos and dinos, okay?
01:23:33.000So the political establishment before Trump was, they were on board.
01:23:37.000It was the unit party, the one party pretending to be two.
01:23:41.000Whenever issues of war come up, guess what?
01:23:44.000Republicans and Democrats are high-fiving each other.
01:23:46.000Donald Trump says, I want to withdraw troops from Afghanistan, and Republicans and Democrats alike said no.
01:23:51.000And what bothers me, having fought there, Is, you know, critics of Trump say his hasty withdrawal from Afghanistan will throw the region into instability or something like that.
01:24:12.000All of my adult life we've been there.
01:24:17.000Half of my life, the only thing that I've known as a profession, really, is war.
01:24:24.000Outside of my post-military life, I feel like I made a pretty good life for myself in the private sector, but all my adult life we've been at war.
01:24:33.000And we're talking about a hasty withdrawal from Afghanistan?
01:24:37.000Just the excuse to stay in and and and look I think There's probably confidential reasons that you know the
01:24:44.000American people probably won't know but I think there's got to be justification of what?
01:24:47.000What why they want to do it? But anyway, here's what I think is going on
01:24:50.000when Trump got elected he wasn't supposed to You know, he was like a bull charging through the doors of the cathedral.
01:24:58.000And the never-Trumpers, these are people who were consultants and strategists who weren't tied to a position, ran straight to the Democratic Party.
01:25:05.000The Lincoln Project, here they were, saying, we're conservatives, but now we're gonna support all the Democrats.
01:25:10.000Because they're the establishment, they like the war, they like the machine, they've disdained for the American people, and Trump pushed them out.
01:28:08.000Yes, but that's precisely why he's so popular as well, because he was not an establishment guy.
01:28:12.000I don't, I don't know though, you know, to be honest, most of the people I know, uh, and I come from Chicago, everybody's a Democrat, and most people I know are either like, they flipped.
01:28:24.000They, and so I know some people who are hardcore for Biden, and they're like total social justice activists, really into intersectionality and critical race theory stuff, but they're, And these are people, I'm talking about the people I've known my whole life.
01:28:37.000There's way more people who are Democrats who flipped for Donald Trump.
01:28:40.000I've met way more, I know way more people from Occupy Wall Street who flipped and voted for Trump, because if you go back 10 years and look at the things that were going on and the complaints people had, it was the establishment, the big bank bailouts, the free trade agreements.
01:28:57.000We had the battle in Seattle, which was way before, it was the 1999 thing, this massive protest against the World Trade Organization.
01:29:03.000Donald Trump said, just like Bernie, the TPP has got to go.
01:29:07.000But all of a sudden, these progressives and these leftists just decided that the TPP was a good thing?
01:29:16.000I tell you, one of the craziest moments of the past four years was when I was talking to a friend of mine.
01:30:34.000Then you go to the bottom and it says, while it is true that Byrd was a member of the KKK, he was not a grand dragon, he was an exalted cyclops.
01:30:42.000Sounds like they were playing D&D or something.
01:30:43.000I mean, Joe Biden is, you know, he was responsible for the crime bill that imprisoned more African-American men.
01:34:27.000You know, the thing, the thing is, is that president Trump and, and, you know, people criticized him after his first debate.
01:34:34.000You would be like that too if every single day the media attacked every member of your family relentlessly for no reason.
01:34:43.000Every Hollywood celebrity attacks President Trump.
01:34:46.000But every one of those Hollywood celebrities were lining up around the block to go to his parties before he ran for president, and the moment he has an R after his name, oh, he's a racist, he's a fascist.
01:35:22.000It's so, I just, it's, it's, you know, and that's why I say low information voters, because if you were someone who paid attention to Trump's history, you knew when he was running the things they were accusing of made no sense.
01:37:04.000And I know that's like the joke of a loaded question, but they literally were asking him things like, you know, when did you finally decide that white supremacy was bad?
01:41:03.000It's unfortunate that... And then what happens is you get these, there are a lot of progressives that were like, we have to vote for Joe Biden because Trump's a fascist or whatever.
01:41:12.000And then now that Joe Biden is doing things that are destroying the economy and taking away a lot of these benefits for the working class they wanted, they're like, mandate it!
01:41:19.000And then it will just, they'll just accelerate the, you know, the entropy, I suppose, the collapse, the breakdown.
01:41:25.000It's unfortunate because I think the media, You know, the watchdogs of the Republic, right?
01:43:19.000I mean, he didn't concede until December 12th.
01:43:21.000So the point is, is that this is a perfectly normal process and we should let the process play out to give people some confidence in the system.
01:44:35.000I called them deer sniper towers deer blinds Yeah, there there are so actually only thing you don't have you know, which is what you do This is what you need is like a gun ring like a rifle range like an actual range.
01:44:46.000So I I don't think, yeah, just legalities.
01:45:32.000Jerry Cant says, Allegheny resident here, for now.
01:45:35.000An old couple I know told me that when they went to vote, were told they had already requested mail-in ballots when they did no such thing.
01:45:42.000I'm sure this is a completely fair election.
01:45:46.000We've heard that from a lot of people.
01:45:50.000A lot of people, and this is one of the anomalies that we, that I didn't mention earlier, but that we're certainly investigating, is that, you know, people, namely Republicans, showing up to vote Yeah.
01:46:01.000being told that they already voted via absentee.
01:46:16.000I don't know, you know, part of me, it's starting to, the Will Trump win meter
01:46:20.000is starting to go up when I see this stuff because I have to imagine, you get enough lawsuits
01:46:23.000from people claiming their vote was stolen.
01:46:25.000And it doesn't, it doesn't need to be.
01:46:27.000Look, Tim, you, you just said, I mean, like these courts are comprised of human beings.
01:46:31.000Like Rudy Giuliani is out there saying, look, I've got sworn affidavits from thousands of people like that, that great American who just asked that question and the media and the courts are just ignoring it.
01:46:56.000Trent says, I don't have the following, but can't we get a mass exodus from social media censorship and a mass movement to not pay federal taxes?
01:47:07.000I don't know about all that, but that could be an interesting strategy for the lockdowns, you know, I've been saying for a long time, like people just need to not...
01:47:16.000Of course we need to take the virus seriously.
01:47:18.000What they're going to do is clip this up later and then use it to attack me.
01:47:21.000Yes, we need to take it seriously, but these lockdowns aren't based on any science and the only way that they stop happening is non-compliance.
01:48:48.000Bill says, Antifa vandalized my personal possessions with red spray paint at work, in a GM plant with 5,000 people, and management and HR did nothing.
01:48:57.000The corporations are just as evil as Antifa itself.
01:49:49.000Oh let's see. Shakaihatsu says, if Trump was cheated out of re-election, and if they get
01:49:57.000away with it, it will be due to the disarrayed chaotic response.
01:50:00.000There should be very few, preferably one mainline of attack that is easy to understand, hard to deny, and should naturally prepare the next step.
01:52:43.000In Canada, they have, there was a tweet that went out that said three scrutineers They watch the vote count three different people, different parties.
01:52:51.000We could have Democrat, Republican, and Libertarian for good measure.
01:52:54.000The Libertarian's gonna be mad at both of them, you know what I mean?
01:52:56.000Like, no, no, you don't get to... But we don't do that.
01:53:00.000And so I'm supposed to just trust this?
01:53:02.000I'm telling you, man, we are in a very dangerous position where I almost wonder if the Democrats want absolute collapse and chaos and violence in the streets, because if they were confident that Joe Biden won, they'd simply say, give baby his bottle, do your audits, and we'll be getting ready for the presidency.
01:53:18.000Instead, they're saying, no, no audits, no transparency, no checking.
01:53:22.000We want you to not trust this election and this president.
01:53:25.000You can see, you can see what their intent is through how they act, right?
01:54:01.000You're just counting the same false votes.
01:54:03.000Georgia was a risk-limiting audit where they take a small sample of the ballots and then recount them to make sure they match with the machines.
01:54:53.000You can't remove the signature verification, the postmark requirement.
01:54:58.000You can't extend the election for three freaking days and allow people to say, This is our margin on election day, and then get the votes you need three days after.
01:55:58.000What's funny is the mainstream media has tried explaining away that we saw these major spikes for Biden of like 100 plus thousand votes, 98% for Biden.
01:58:14.000A bunch of the non elected officials, the strategists and consultants became Democrats, never Trumpers, actually campaigning for Democrats.
01:58:23.000Cause it's not about Republican or Democrats, it's about political establishment power.
01:58:47.000Frank the God says not only was Biden responsible for the 94 crime bill, but he was also responsible for expanding civil, uh, civil forfeiture with the 84 comprehensive asset forfeiture act.
02:00:00.000And that's why we're working so hard to get that remedy in the court, so that the question that that person just asked, that scenario doesn't happen.
02:00:11.000There was a story from Reuters where they interviewed a bunch of Trump supporters and one guy said, if Trump said, you know, it's time, grab your guns, they'd say yes.
02:00:21.000And I've met a lot of people who have said the same thing.
02:00:27.000Man, we want things to be chill and be normal, but the problem is the only way to get there is if the Democrats allow for audits and respect the concerns.
02:00:37.00070-plus million people is a lot of people.
02:01:12.000Jason Herbert says, What if Trump calls for military intervention?
02:01:16.000If he calls all veterans and AD individuals to stand up because they won't look at the evidence in the courts, he presents all of it that can be proven.
02:04:02.000It's like, this is what President Trump has been up against for the last four years.
02:04:07.000I mean, what an unbelievable leadership challenge.
02:04:12.000Megalith says Trump carried GOP despite not being one.
02:04:15.000I've seen a lot of people where they say if Trump loses, they will never vote GOP.
02:04:19.000They are frustrated at the rhinos trying to get him out.
02:04:22.000I think, I think Republicans, like, I don't think that they should overlook the fact that Trump drove people to the polls and record levels.
02:05:07.000I mean, we've seen that effect in 2018.
02:05:12.000And so I think it's likely Democrats will take everything.
02:05:14.000What President Trump needs to do is he needs to do like five, six rallies down there in Georgia for both Perdue and Loeffler and do everything that he can.
02:07:10.000And banning all online sales of guns and accessories, ending businesses outright.
02:07:15.000Based on the amount of magazines that you have.
02:07:17.000Yeah, so I don't know, I was reading about it, I don't know if his tax plan would affect existing weapons and ammo and magazines, but I guess the idea is any purchase of a new one would be heavily taxed.
02:07:29.000Which is like, I've never been a big fan of punitive taxation or whatever, you know.
02:08:01.000We're going to keep investigating these irregularities and doing everything we can to find hard evidence of them so that the people can have some trust in the way that our elections are conducted.
02:08:11.000They're saying, you know, there's going to be a hearing tomorrow in Pennsylvania to go over the affidavits and the evidence and maybe that's going to have some kind of impact.
02:08:44.000So my first book, my first book is Outlaw Platoon.
02:08:46.000That was about my time in Afghanistan.
02:08:48.000My first fiction book is a book called Man of War, right?
02:08:52.000And it follows the fictional world of the alphas, where all elite military, singleton military operators, uh, The Alpha Program is a program of nine soldiers, singleton operators, each responsible for a different geographic area of the globe.
02:09:09.000The story follows an Alpha named Eric Steele, who was the youngest, most talented Alpha, right?
02:09:13.000And so, man of war, Uh, Eric Steele gets his first book and then Eric Steele's
02:09:19.000second book is a book called all out war.
02:09:28.000And I think that's by far my best fiction book to date.
02:09:32.000And I'm working on the fourth book now.
02:09:34.000And I think that, you know, people dig.
02:09:37.000Is the fourth book going to be about a guy who runs for office and there's a mail-in ballot scheme to subvert the presidency?
02:09:44.000No, but I am thinking of writing a non-fiction book about Yeah, like being plucked out of obscurity from the President of the United States and thrown in to run for office and sort of a behind-the-curtain look at what happens on a campaign.
