00:04:11.840 He says to kill freaking politicians.
00:04:13.940 This guy is the most anti-American.
00:04:16.060 when i signed up for the military they said you make an oath to to protect this country from

00:04:59.740 aliens, they all have the same thing
00:05:01.260 he supports a billionaire tax
00:05:02.980 and the DSA backs him, he campaigned
00:05:05.860 with known communists, bro
00:05:07.620 Hassan Piker is a freaking communist
00:05:09.940 okay, and then buddy, there's a
00:05:11.600 counter-terrorism expert, Pat, he was in front of
00:05:13.740 congress with uh ted cruz that we were talking about earlier kyle uh shidler i guess he testified
00:05:18.520 about this guy he said that his ties to m gauge which is close ties to uh the council of american
00:05:24.400 islamic relations and his father-in-law's leadership roles in the muslim brotherhood
00:05:28.840 linked organizations uh then he confirmed that the muslim brotherhood uh partners with democratic
00:05:35.300 socialists of america and michigan voters deserve answers about this guy and who he is and i hope
00:05:40.500 Guys, the fight is here.
00:05:42.060 It's no longer, hey, they're coming in there, whatever,
00:05:44.760 because the goal is what?
00:05:46.140 The goal is what?
00:05:47.300 To put as much people, flood the system, try the Sharia law,
00:05:50.780 but I'm telling you right now, they came to the wrong effing place,
00:05:53.220 and I'm sorry, Pat, because it's true.
00:05:55.380 And people are worried about these people.
00:05:57.020 I'm not because I'm going to bring on the point.
00:05:58.080 So there's a clip of him being asked to disavow Hassan Piker,
00:06:03.640 and I think he refuses.
00:06:05.280 Obviously.
00:06:05.620 If this is the clip, go for it and play.
00:06:07.380 Go ahead.
00:06:07.580 We got two clips to play.
00:06:08.480 He said that you need to renounce people like the left-wing streamer, Hassan Piker, who was campaigning with you, who was out there in Michigan on Monday night, I believe last night as well.
00:06:19.400 Do you have any plans to do that?
00:06:23.880 Look, I'll tell you this. I'm less focused on folks who are campaigning with me, more focused on the folks I'm campaigning to.
00:06:30.020 And I think it's important to stay in touch with the folks who you want to elect you.
00:06:34.760 Good rehearsal.
00:06:35.540 You rehearsed that a thousand times.
00:06:37.120 The people told you what to say and all that stuff with that little smirks.
00:06:40.440 Very well spoken.
00:06:41.780 Never underestimate the power of a great communicator.
00:06:45.640 This guy, if you see how he speaks, play the clip.
00:06:48.560 The allies are launching is already more bitter.
00:06:52.660 All you got to do is look at the ads you're already watching on TV started today.
00:06:56.900 You know, they think that you want to use my whole name against me.
00:06:59.740 Mike, listen, man, if you can't say the name, it's Abdurrahman.
00:07:02.480 Keep the name out your damn mouth.
00:07:03.700 Look who's clapping.
00:07:07.740 White liberal women.
00:07:08.700 Look who's clapping there.
00:07:09.980 Look, they're so happy.
00:07:11.140 They don't even understand what he said.
00:07:12.500 Yeah, yeah, whatever.
00:07:13.780 The difference between him and Mamdani is Mamdani is able to hide his rage and anger.
00:07:23.480 This guy's rage and anger comes out.
00:07:25.620 Open.
00:07:26.360 Open door.
00:07:27.160 The guy's rage and anger comes out.
00:07:28.460 So we'll see.
00:07:29.060 I mean, look, the person he went up against, Adam, you were saying she looked like who
00:07:33.340 What did you say his opponent was?
00:07:34.780 Oh, look, the girl that he beat in Michigan is, like, a female Chris Farley, they say.
00:07:40.260 But she's entertaining, the Haley Stephens.
00:07:42.200 But how much money did she spend?
00:07:43.380 But this should be a warning.
00:07:45.560 Like, they spent so much money on her, and you didn't win.
00:07:49.740 This is the epitome of the Democratic Party right now.
00:07:52.280 Hey, Michiganders, what's going on here?
00:07:53.960 Haley Stephens here.
00:07:55.560 We have to beat this New Hammond guy.
00:07:58.480 Literally.
00:07:59.320 I mean, there's footage of it.
00:08:00.640 But, Adam, prove me wrong.
00:08:01.840 Can I ask you a question?
00:08:02.520 This guy, Abdul Muhammad, is going to come about it.
00:08:05.100 But let me ask you a question.
00:08:06.680 How much money, Conor?
00:08:07.980 Can you find out how much money?
00:08:09.780 A lot of money, Vinny.
00:08:11.140 Play it.
00:08:12.200 I am going to be working on our behalf.
00:08:14.960 I am going to be telling the stories on our behalf.
00:08:18.980 And you better believe I'm going to be doing it with a little bit of joy,
00:08:22.880 a little bit of enthusiasm, a little bit of energy.
00:08:24.880 Oh, boy.
00:08:25.280 Tom is here.
00:08:26.200 Tom is here.
00:08:27.320 Leave it in a van down by the rim.
00:08:29.300 Vinny, go for it.
00:08:31.000 It's getting worse.
00:08:31.780 Wait, I don't even know what my point is.
00:08:33.220 Vinny, we got to get on the right track.
00:08:34.860 How much money was raised?
00:08:35.680 So my point is, my point is, look at where, and we've talked about this before.
00:08:39.560 I'm not going to be the dead horse.
00:08:40.780 Look at where the Democratic Party is right now.
00:08:42.980 The person that they really wanted was her.
00:08:45.300 That's why they put all the money, all the donors.
00:08:47.480 You can't win with a guy because guess what?
00:08:49.860 When we talked about the affordability and everything that's happening right now,
00:08:52.980 this youth, these young movement, all those liberals and the people,
00:08:56.020 I don't see any Middle Easterns.
00:08:57.500 Where are all the Abdul Abdel Abdel Abdel?
00:08:59.220 Where are y'all at behind him?
00:09:00.760 It's a show.
00:09:01.200 The white people and liberals that are going to be voting for this freaking guy, because guess what the promise is?
00:09:06.580 Free stuff and to hell with rich guys.
00:09:09.080 Rich guys.
00:09:09.780 People like Pat and Elon, they're the problem.
00:09:12.080 Are you stupid?
00:09:13.060 You know how many jobs these people are creating?
00:09:15.920 You know how they're moving the markets?
00:09:17.300 Tom, I know we want to move on, but words talk, numbers scream.
00:09:20.180 How about some numbers?
00:09:21.340 We can pick on her all we want.
00:09:23.520 He beat her by 1.1 points.
00:09:26.220 So let's subjectively look at her and say, that's a weak candidate, man.
00:09:31.260 That is not an inspiring candidate.
00:09:33.700 And here's what happened.
00:09:35.600 There was a surge in the, remember, two things about elections.
00:09:42.180 Emotion, emotion, emotion.
00:09:43.500 Turnout, turnout, turnout.
00:09:45.200 This was, ready for this, Pat?
00:09:48.020 This turnout was the biggest turnout for a summer primary in Michigan history.
00:09:54.400 So in other words, the people turned out to vote in the primary and took it seriously, and he won by one point.
00:10:02.960 But the Democrats controlled the votes.
00:10:04.580 Remember, I ran for office, and I won my primary in California.
00:10:07.960 I mean, it was the bluest state in every way, shape, or form.
00:10:12.460 They win by controlling the votes.
00:10:14.260 But this was their primary.
00:10:15.280 This was their primary.
00:10:16.500 But now let's look inside.
00:10:18.560 What happened?
00:10:19.720 Take a look at her candidacy.
00:10:21.880 Right.
00:10:22.080 She carried African-American vote outside of the deep blue center cities, number one.
00:10:28.540 Number two, when it was 40 percent had a college degree and female, he wins by 10 points.
00:10:36.280 There's your angry, angry middle female vote.
00:10:40.620 And lastly, number scream is the pollsters that were out there had him winning.
00:10:46.100 The Democrat-leaning pollsters had him winning by 10.1 points.
00:10:50.020 The RCP, RealClearPolitics Consensus, a week before had it by 10.
00:10:54.920 It turns out to be one.
00:10:56.360 This is going to be closer than people think.
00:10:58.920 And what we can't miss, Pat, is underneath this, he's got trouble with the Michigan voters, with the black voters.
00:11:05.480 He's got trouble who were not buying this.
00:11:08.200 So we can see the headline.
00:11:09.940 He wins, but underneath, not by much.
00:11:13.000 Against a weak candidate.
00:11:14.640 We'll see what's going to happen there.
00:11:15.880 Adam, you look like you still want to talk.
00:11:17.840 I haven't said anything yet.
00:11:18.680 What do you want to – you haven't – you've screamed like a million times already.
00:11:22.280 Not on this story.
00:11:23.120 Really?
00:11:23.640 You didn't scream on Chris Barley and all that stuff?
00:11:26.000 I did talk about Chris Barley, but I didn't make my point yet.
00:11:28.360 You want me to go?
00:11:28.900 Go.
00:11:29.360 Okay.
00:11:30.020 Well, you know, my dad is from Detroit.
00:11:31.840 My dad's from Michigan.
00:11:32.800 We've showed some videos here, which we can pull up.
00:11:34.920 I actually respect this guy.
00:11:37.800 Why do I respect this guy?
00:11:39.620 He's telling you exactly who he is, and I respect that.
00:11:43.140 Number one, my dad's from Detroit, Michigan.
00:11:45.540 We can play those clips in a second.
00:11:47.520 This guy went to the University of Michigan.
00:11:49.060 He roots for Go Blue.
00:11:49.840 He gave a great speech as a valedictorian or something in 2007.
00:11:53.820 You went to Michigan.
00:11:54.680 You graduated.
00:11:55.820 My dad went to Michigan.
00:11:56.940 Respect to you.
00:11:57.880 That's where the respect starts to wane.
00:12:00.600 I actually respect the move that they're doing.
00:12:03.040 If you have a radical base in certain cities, in Dearborn, or in Minneapolis, or in L.A.,
00:12:11.100 New York, you know that you have 20, 30, 40, 50,000 people who are going to vote for you.
00:12:15.860 It's a smart approach.
00:12:17.580 I respect that.
00:12:18.840 Now, who are these people, these constituency?
00:12:20.920 I have some questions about.
00:12:22.800 The biggest litmus test that I have, Pat, is what do I always rock?
00:12:26.960 The American flag.
00:12:28.540 My litmus test is how do you feel about the flag?
00:12:31.780 And I'm very certain I know how MAGA and most Americans feel about the flag.
00:12:36.300 Then there's this whole corner on the left with this horseshoe right
00:12:39.600 that I don't think they like the flag.
00:12:42.120 I don't think they...
00:12:42.820 No, I have no respect for the flag.
00:12:43.960 Hillary Clinton went famous in 2016.
00:12:47.180 What did she call the Trump voters?
00:12:48.940 The basket of deplorables.
00:12:50.900 This basket of haters hates America.
00:12:54.620 They hate the foundation of America.
00:12:56.500 And ultimately, it's going to be MAGA versus the DSA.
00:13:00.620 And that's what's going to happen.
00:13:01.380 Now, this is what I saw when I went to Michigan.
00:13:03.820 Just at the airport, I thought that I was in Israel and I saw less of this.
00:13:08.960 We played this clip a couple months ago.
00:13:10.780 I'm in Detroit, and I just want to bring you into speed on what's going on here.
00:13:15.560 There's a couple other videos, but they're all full.
00:13:18.020 So if that's what you want America to look like, cool, vote for that.
00:13:22.500 But I think America does not want to look like Sharia law.
00:13:25.520 And that's why I think this guy's going to lose.
00:13:27.720 And this is also why I think 2028, the DSA is going to be a topic you cannot avoid,
00:13:33.540 and an AOC stands a massive chance of being the candidate.
00:13:36.940 Whether you like it or not, she's going to be formidable
00:13:40.220 because Newsom's lied so much that even Democrats are getting tired of Newsom.
00:13:45.280 Do you know the name of the candidate that's running against Al-Sayed?
00:13:48.800 Who?
00:13:49.320 His name is Mike Rogers.
00:13:50.740 Remember that name?
00:13:51.680 He's like a typical Republican Mr. Rogers neighborhood.
00:13:55.620 So in Michigan, they're going to have a choice between Mr. Rogers or Hezbollah.
00:13:59.720 Yeah, but you know how you win these campaigns in reality because I ran it?
00:14:03.260 How much money is he raising?
00:14:04.480 If he raises $500,000 and the other guy, this individual that we're talking about, raises $1 billion?
00:14:11.960 $1 billion?
00:14:12.720 Why not?
00:14:13.200 Well, I mean, we're talking tens of millions of dollars in this race.
00:14:15.800 Yeah, but I'm saying they raised so much money.
00:14:18.200 The girl I ran against that doesn't even live in my district.
00:14:22.780 And she lives in Santa Monica, somewhere else.
00:14:24.420 But she was able to raise so much money in donors, $25,000 here, $50,000.
00:14:29.180 Was she part of the DSA?
00:14:30.140 And the Republican Party did not support anybody in California.
00:14:34.180 Yeah.
00:14:34.480 They don't get, I got like $5,000 checks from some senator or whatever.
00:14:38.780 I mean, they get hundreds and hundreds of thousands of dollars.
00:14:41.980 That's how you work.
00:14:42.360 Follow the money.
00:14:43.260 We are officially three weeks away from the Vol Conference.
00:14:47.160 Three weeks away from the Vol Conference.
00:14:49.020 And for those of you guys that got CO tickets, Alex Spiral will be joining us in the CO session.
00:14:55.680 Alex Spiral, if you don't know, he's Musk's lawyer, Bezos' lawyer, top seven richest men in America out of top ten.
00:15:02.100 He's their lawyer.
00:15:02.940 He's the guy that people fear.
00:15:04.720 He'll be in there talking.
00:15:05.760 And then when Joe Montana and Jerry Rice interview happens, that'll be done by Stephen A. Smith.
00:15:09.600 We're going to have a good time.
00:15:10.660 It's going to be phenomenal.
