  Speaker 1: Everybody, welcome to Vince on a Wednesday. Great to have
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: you with us as always. We're going to dive into
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: the latest today on the push to get the SAVE
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: Act across the finish line. You know, there are United
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: States senators who don't even actually know the rules of
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: the Senate. They had to be given an instructional class
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: yesterday at the Senate. I'll explain the latest on that subject.
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: and our efforts to get this across the finish line.
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: We've got a list of names, the good guys right now,
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: who are joining in the fight to get the SAVE
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: Act passed. I'll share that with you. What I'm hearing
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: from the United States Senate as well. Also, I was
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: able to get a question into the White House yesterday
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: about all of this. We have a lot to discuss
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: on that front. And then when it comes to immigration enforcement,
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: we've had a big hearing yesterday in the United States Congress,
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: where you get all of the top immigration enforcers appearing
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: Before these House members, Republicans, for the most part, asking
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: perfectly decent questions. Democrats, hair on fire insanity. I've got
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: the details on all of that ahead on our program.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: And then some late-breaking developments overnight in the search for
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: Nancy Guthrie, a flurry of activity yesterday as a case
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: that really wasn't moving anywhere for over a week has
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: now suddenly got a lot of action on it. I've
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: got the details all ahead. on this edition of Vince.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: So great to have you with us as always. Appreciate you.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: Appreciate you. And our great sponsors. You know, that includes
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: Beam's Dream Powder. I love Beam. Beam's great. Beam helps
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: me sleep. They really do. February is a great month
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: for a million different reasons. And it's a short month.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: We get through it really quickly. February's got a way
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: of separating the good intentions from real habits. You know,
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: we got January, comes in very strong, and you make
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: all these commitments to how you're going to change your life,
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: and then life pushes back on you. And sleep's usually
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: the first thing that gets sacrificed. Nothing affects how you think, work,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: and show up more than sleep. This is why Dream
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: by Beam has become one of my non-negotiables. It's the
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: habit that helps me wind down, shut my mind off,
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: and actually wake up feeling rested. Now, Dream's awesome because
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: it's made up of a powerful blend of all natural ingredients, reishi, magnesium, L-theanine, apigenin, melatonin,
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: and Beam is proudly founded in America. It's run by
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: people who share our values hard work, integrity, and delivering results.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: So if you've been waiting for the right time to
• 2:24

  Speaker 1: I'm doing a surgery this afternoon. We'll do it real fast.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: It'll be fine. My wife says, take the day off
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: the next day. I said, okay, fine. So that's what's
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: going on. I'll be back Friday. I'll be back Friday
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: on all the shows. It'll be great. It'll be really great.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: And thank you for everybody's, you know, sending me prayers
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: and all sorts of kind thoughts. Thank you for that.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: I appreciate you as always. Um, let's see, what do
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: we got going on in the world right now? Well,
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: the big thing that you and I have been pushing
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: so hard for, I feel like this is a meeting
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: where we all get together to talk, to plot the
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: latest push to get the SAVE Act through. We're talking
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: about the SAVE Act a lot. And there's a reason
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: for that, because we are convinced that there is some
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: possibility that this thing can get across the finish line.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: And also, we sort of love our country, so we
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: really want things to come to pass that actually help
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: us make it great again, as a famous president once said.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: That's what we want. And so yesterday in the United
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: States Senate, Mike Lee, who has been, well, he's been
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: a standout, candidly, on this fight. He's the key sponsor
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: in the Senate for the SAVE Act. He has been
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: a part of this push to get these U.S. senators
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: to actually enforce the rules of the Senate. In other words,
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: just get everybody to do a standing filibuster. bring everybody
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: to the floor, force the Democrats to verbally filibuster this thing.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: And then when they get all tuckered out, throw them
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: out of the room and vote to pass the SAVE
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: Act to get it across the finish line. But here's
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: the problem. And I've said this on other shows, and
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: I just want to once again reemphasize a detail. There
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: are United States senators who don't even know what the
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: rules of the Senate are. They didn't even know that
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: this power was available to them and that it's been
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: available to them as long as the Senate's been around.
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: They didn't know that all they needed to do was
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: go to the floor, establish a quorum and pass this.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: This is how sclerotic and sort of wasted away the
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: Senate is that they don't even know what powers they
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: have access to anymore. They've spent so little time doing
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: the actual job that they think that not doing the
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: job is right. what the job description is. It's not.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: And the reason I can say this with some confidence
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: is because Mike Lee gives this presentation yesterday at the
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: Senate lunch. And you've got, according to reports from places
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: like Punchbowl, which is a congressional reporting operation, they say
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: that there were Republicans that were in the room who
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: didn't even know how any of it worked. What? This
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: is crazy. Listen to this. This is Andrew Desiderio with Punchbowl.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: He said the following on X yesterday. late yesterday. At
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: the Senate Republican lunch, Senator Mike Lee gave a presentation
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: about the SAVE Act. Robert Duncan, Thune's floor secretary, John
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: Thune's floor secretary, gave an overview of how the talking
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: filibuster would work. Well, that's promising. I'm glad to see
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: Thune's people are involved in this conversation. Andrew says that
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: it was mostly informational, and according to one attendee, so
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: one would assume when you say attendee, you mean a
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: Republican senator, quote, nobody really knows how this stuff works.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: Nobody knows. It's built into the Senate. This is schoolhouse
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: rock stuff.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: What?
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: You don't know how it works? This is maddening. But
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: we're going to have to drag them across the finish
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: line and tell them how to operate inside of their
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: own congressional body. Yeah, Senate Republicans all got together yesterday
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: to discuss the SAVE Act and the talking filibuster. which
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: is good, they still don't have enough support within the
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: conference to go down that route right now to circumvote
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: the 60-vote threshold, according to this Punchbowl reporter. In other words,
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: they don't even have the simple majority support yet. to
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: get this thing across the finish line. Now, the fact
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: that they're even doing this at all is a sign
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: of your success. The fact that these Republicans are gathering
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: right now is because the pressure that you are placing
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: on the Senate right now is working. It's clearly working
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: to the point that they're freaking out about it, trying
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: to figure out what do we do? How do the
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: rules even work? They're getting briefings from John Foon's guy.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: Mike Lee is trying to teach everybody about this. So
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: it's not that the conversation is being ignored. It's that
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: it can't be ignored. So right now they're trying to
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: figure out how do we contend with our own base
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: that desperately wants to get this across the finish line.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: Mike Lee offered us an update just ahead of the
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: lunch yesterday, and hopefully we can get some more updates
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: on the list here. But he gives us the list.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: You ready for the list? I'm sure you guys love lists.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: You love the names to know who's on my side,
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: who's against me. Let's just cut right to the chase. Okay,
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: let's cut to the chase. Here's the current Senate sponsor
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: and co-sponsor list for the Save America Act. That was
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: as of just before lunchtime yesterday. There are now 38 co-sponsors.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: for the Save America Act, which means we're still short.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: We need to get to 50. But here we are
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: right now. It's Banks, Barrasso, Blackburn, Boozman, Britt, Budd, Korn
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: and Cotton, Kramer, Crapo, Cruz, Dames, Fisher, Graham, Haggerty, Hawley, Hoven, Husted, Johnson, Justice, Lankford, Lee, Loomis, Marshall, McCormick, Moody, Moran, Moreno, Mullen, Paul, Ricketts, Rounds,
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: Rick Scott, Risch, Schmidt, Sheehy, Tuberville, and Young. By the way,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: where's Tim Scott? I see R. Scott. I don't see T.
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: Scott.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: Or F. Scott Fitzgerald, for that matter. But he's not
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: a senator. Okay, so we've got a lot of names,
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: but we need more. Mike Lee says, we continue to
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: add more every day and hope to be at or
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: above 50 by the end of this week. By the
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: end of this week. That's Mike Lee. Sounds like a
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: little optimistic, but This is good. Keep giving us the names.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: I love this. I love, like, not having this cover
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: of darkness nonsense where, you know, because a lot of
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: what happens in the Senate, candidly, is they just basically
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: hope you forget about it, that you get worn out,
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: that your filibuster ends, that you stop paying attention, and
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: then they can move on to other things. How about, no,
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: we're going to continue the filibuster until you get this
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: thing across the finish line. I use that expression a lot,
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: get this across the finish line. I should add some
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: variation there. So who's against this thing? Who's coming out
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: against it? Well, Lisa freaking Murkowski has come out against it.
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: It's not a surprise. but it is appalling that Lisa
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: Murkowski is against this. And she announced yesterday, she put
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: out a statement on this subject, which is insane. Oh, oh, oh,
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: I love this.
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: Oh, my gosh.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: This is even better than I realized. All right, here
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: we go. Lisa Murkowski comes out against the SAVE Act.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: And here's what she said. She said, when Democrats attempted
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: to advance sweeping election reform in 2021, Republicans were unanimous
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: in opposition because it would have federalized elections. Ladies and gentlemen,
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: I'm going to unpack the duplicity of all of this.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: Just bear with me. She said Republicans were unanimous in opposing,
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: this is Nancy Pelosi's For the People Act in 2021,
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: because it would have federalized elections, something we have long opposed.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: Now I'm seeing proposals such as the SAVE Act and
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: MEGA that would effectively do just that. Once again, I
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: do not support these efforts. Not only does the U.S.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: Constitution clearly provide states the authority to regulate the times, places,
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: and manner of holding federal elections, but one-size-fits-all mandates from Washington, D.C.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: seldom work in places like Alaska. Election day is fast approaching,
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: imposing new federal requirements now when states are deep into
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: their preparations would negatively impact election integrity by forcing election
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: officials to scramble to adhere to new policies likely without
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: the necessary resources. Ensuring public trust in our elections is
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: at the core of our democracy, but federal overreach is
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: not how we achieve this. End of statement. That's it.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: So Lisa Murkowski comes out and she says a couple
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: of things. She says, Well, in 21, we were against
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi federalizing elections. So we should be against that now.
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: This is bull crap. This is utter garbage. Let's do
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: a fact check here because she says, well, the Constitution
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: tells us that really it's the states clearly provide states
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: the authority to regulate the times, places and manner of
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: holding elections.
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: So here's the fact check. False. The plain text of
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: the Constitution, which I have to keep reminding actual members
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: of Congress of every passing day, the plain text of
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: the Constitution, The Article 1, Section 4, Clause 1 says
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: that Congress may at any time by law make or
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: alter such regulations, except as to the places of choosing senators.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: In other words, Congress can get involved in how elections
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: are administered when necessary. In fact, this inclusion in the
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: Constitution was heavily debated before. when the Federalists were advocating
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: for the Constitution to be passed. At the time, in
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: the Federalist Papers, Alexander Hamilton, writing under the name Publius,
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: said that this was essential to the preservation of the Republic.
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: This had to be done. Let me just show you,
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: this is Federalist 59. I can't, look at this, I've
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: got to do a history lesson. I got to teach
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: Lisa Murkowski about our country. You ready? This is, look
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: at this. So in Federalist 59, it references this detail,
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: that the United States Congress may at any time by
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: law make or alter such regulations, okay? Now, why is
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: that in the Constitution at all? Hamilton says, he goes,
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: that the reason for this is that this is one
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: of the most important inclusions in the entire Constitution. Its
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: propriety rests upon the evidence of this plain proposition that
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: every government ought to contain in itself the means of
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: its own preservation. Let me put that differently. In other words,
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: if the states start to become completely out of control,
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: if they're just rigging all of their elections and they're
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: trying to upend national governance, the people of the United States,
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: the rest of us, have to have a means to
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: get everything back under control. And that would be Congress intervening.
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: So that's what Alexander Hamilton is talking about here. He
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: goes on, he says, this is probably one of my
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: favorite lines, actually, from this Federalist paper. He says, nothing
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: can be more evident than that an exclusive power of
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: regulating elections for the national government in the hands of
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: state legislatures would leave the existence of the union entirely
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: at their mercy. They could at any moment annihilate it
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: by neglecting to provide for the choice of persons to
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: administer its affairs. If the states rig their elections, let
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: me put this more bluntly. If Democrats are rigging elections
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: in the states that they control across our country, they could, quote,
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: annihilate our union, Hamilton said. In other words, he mounted
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: a ferocious argument on behalf of Congress playing a role here.
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: Is the state supposed to administer the election? Yeah, they're
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: supposed to set it up correctly. But if they screw
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: it up, we have to have a means to step in.
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: And finally, here's what he also says. I want to
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: jump to this part. This is the very end of
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: this Federalist paper. With so effectual a weapon in their
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: hands as the exclusive power of regulating elections for the
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: national government, A combination of a few such men in
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: a few of the most considerable states where the temptation
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: will always be the strongest, think states like New York, California,
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: Democrat-run states, massive populations, might accomplish the destruction of the
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: union by seizing the opportunity of some casual dissatisfaction among
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: the people in which perhaps they may have themselves excited.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: Does this sound familiar at all? Democrats whipping people into
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: a frenzy to justify rigging elections, to justify removing their
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: political opponents from ballots, prosecuting them, attempting to disqualify Donald
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: Trump entirely from elective politics, to discontinue the choices of
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: members for the Federal House of Representatives. It ought never
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: to be forgotten that a firm union of this country
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: under an efficient government will probably be an increasing object
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: of jealousy to more than one nation of Europe. Hamilton
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: said of Europe at the time. Now we can say
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: safely of the entire world. And that enterprises to subvert
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: it will sometimes originate in the intrigues of foreign powers
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: and will seldom fail to be patronized and abetted by
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: some of them. He goes on to say, of course,
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: this is why we need the people of the United
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: States to protect our elections. Now, what is Hamilton talking
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: about here when he says that these foreign powers are
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: going to meddle in our elections? He's talking about these
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: countries that'll seek to undermine us. They're going to try
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: and interfere. They're going to try and find gaps in
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: our election system to interfere with us. Is that happening
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: at all? Well, I don't know. Do you have foreign
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: countries who are delivering their citizens to our country to
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: have babies in order to as far as you and
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: I are concerned, unconstitutionally make them American citizens and then
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: subsequently perpetually interfere in our elections? That's definitely happening. Do
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: you have Chinese connected billionaires who are sowing discord in
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: the United States by funding some of the insurgencies we're
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: seeing in places like Minnesota right now? That's definitely happening.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: Are there foreign adversaries like, say, Iran, China, Russia, who
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: do seek to interfere in our elections, and we should
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: seek to do what we can to safeguard against any
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: sort of foreign interference whatsoever. Those things are definitely happening.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: In other words, Hamilton detected brilliantly, as usual, what was
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: to come if we didn't protect our union. And for Murkowski,
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: I can't believe this is all starting from a Lisa
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: Murkowski tweet, but I'm going to educate this woman. We're
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: going to teach her how this all actually works. Murkowski
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: to come out and say, oh, back in 2021, I opposed,
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: Republicans opposed, unanimous in opposition, unanimous in opposition to Nancy
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: Pelosi's efforts to federalize elections. There are two massively dishonest
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: points being made here, massively dishonest. Pelosi's efforts to to
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: interfere in the elections in 2021 were not designed, as
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: Hamilton would have, to safeguard the election. Instead, they were
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: designed to make the election less secure, less credible, less believable,
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: because Nancy Pelosi was attempting to rig the election. Now,
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: I've showed this op-ed before, but it bears repeating, especially
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: if this is the first time you're seeing this, or
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: certainly so we can condense all of this together. But
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: this is what the Wall Street Journal said at the
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: time about Nancy Pelosi's push to federalize elections for real.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: She wanted to make every election like 2020. It's called H.R.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: 1 and it was packed with garbage. H.R. 1 is
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: packed with provisions. The article says that would federalize election
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: rules to dubious result, unsettle longstanding practices and security measures
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: that local officials think are prudent, undermine public confidence and
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: increase the odds of contested outcomes. It would have made
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: mail-in ballots the rule of the land. No excuse necessary.
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: You don't have to prove you're right. anywhere. Ballots could
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: be taken 10 days after election day. You can't get
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: your ballot in on time. So 10 days after election day,
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: we still wouldn't know the result of an election until
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: well after a week beyond election day. The whole thing
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: is crazy, designed wide open to fraud. Fraud. So, of course,
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: Republicans should have opposed that in 2021. But they didn't
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: unanimously oppose it, despite what Lisa Murkowski is claiming. This
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: is the new addition this morning that I think is
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: so funny. I didn't realize this until we started the program.
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: You ready for the community note on Lisa Murkowski's ridiculous statement?
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: Readers added context on X. Senator Murkowski voted to advance
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: the 2021 voter reforms that she references here. She was
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: the only Republican to do so. Murkowski voted for it.
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: So in her lies about the Constitution, in her lies
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: about what Republicans who actually care about this country are
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: attempting to do, in her lies about what you and
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: I want to achieve for our country, she lies about
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: her own role. She supported pushing Nancy Pelosi's election takeover
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: in 2021. Oh, my goodness. Alaska, first of all, get
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: rid of ranked choice voting. Second, get rid of Lisa Murkowski.
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: Please give us a real Republican conservative senator from that state, please.
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: I beg of you. Much more to come here on
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: the program. A lot more to come. Was that OK, Chad?
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: Do you mind going through the Federalist Papers? I know
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: it's not the biggest podcast thing to do. Everyone's like,
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: you know. Oh, this is a crazy thing. You got
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: to watch this wild video. Now I'm going to take
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: you through the Federalist Papers because, you know, the founders
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: kind of had a vision and I'd like to restore
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: it to the extent that's even possible. We'd like to
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: restore it. I think I'd like to do that. Yeah. Anyway,
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: that's exactly right. Oh, my gosh. Thank you. People like it.
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: Good.
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: All right. Good, good, good. Just making sure.
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: I mean, because when people come at you and they're
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: like the federal government's not supposed to have any role
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: in elections. Hold on a second. Now you're like Mr.
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: State's rights. You you deceitful little Democrat. It's like it's
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: also crazy. It's all power play for these guys. And
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: Lisa Murkowski is a sucker for playing along with it.
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: A sucker.
• 22:18
  Speaker 5: All right.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: A lot more to get to. Hey, I want to
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: thank the great operation over at Patriot Mobile that loves
• 22:23

  Speaker 1: future right down to which cell phone provider we support.
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: Here's what a lot of people don't even realize. Patriot

  Speaker 1: Mobile is not just a wireless provider. They're a Christian
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: conservative organization that sells top tier cell phone service. Now

  Speaker 1: they've been on the front lines helping to defend our

• 23:34
  Speaker 1: Thank you to Patriot Mobile. Great, great sponsor of this program. Okay,
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: so Elon Musk has jumped in here too. He says,
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: you know, Lisa Murkowski is ridiculous. He doesn't use those words,
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: but those are my words. I'm summarizing Elon here. He says,
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: without election integrity, we don't live in a democracy. Now
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: go ahead. You can quibble with his use of the
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: word democracy. fine, it's a constitutional republic, but the point
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: is well taken. Without election integrity, we don't live in
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: a constitutional republic. That point is true. If you don't
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: have election integrity, you don't have the voice of the
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: people guiding our governance, which is what the founders set up.
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: So Elon Musk is right. I'm glad to see Elon
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: jumping into this fight as well. Now, I was able to,
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: you know, I say I, Reagan Reese, my White House correspondent,
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: Reagan Reese, was able to ask the White House about
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: this yesterday, not about Murkowski, but about the SAVE Act.
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: What are the conversations like right now? You know, we've seen,
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: I told you earlier this week that House Republicans apparently
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: have been hesitating on mail-in ballots and restricting those mail-in ballots,
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: not hesitating on the mail-in ballots, but hesitating on restricting
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: them to only legitimate absentee ballots. And Reagan, uh, on
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: behalf of this audience and Americans who love our country everywhere,
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: ask the White House press secretary about the status of
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: those negotiations with Republicans and where President Trump is right
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: now on the SAVE Act. Here's Reagan yesterday.
• 25:02
  Speaker 7: I can't speak for House Republicans, Reagan. I can obviously
• 25:05
  Speaker 7: speak for the president, who is quite possibly the strongest
• 25:09
  Speaker 7: supporter of the Save America Act, which, as you know,
• 25:12
  Speaker 7: would require proof of citizenship to register to vote. It
• 25:16
  Speaker 7: would require proof of identification, a photo identification before casting
• 25:21
  Speaker 7: a ballot. And it would also ensure transparency. that there
• 25:25
  Speaker 7: are exceptions made. I think that's what you're alluding to
• 25:27
  Speaker 7: with these conversations with House Republicans for reasonable requests, of course,
• 25:31
  Speaker 7: for our military, for individuals who are disabled and cannot
• 25:34
  Speaker 7: make it to the polls. Those are reasonable, common sense
• 25:37
  Speaker 7: things that I believe House Republicans are discussing amongst themselves.
• 25:40
  Speaker 7: But as for the president, he's been very clear. He
• 25:43
  Speaker 7: wants House Republicans and Democrats, too, if they were politically wise,
• 25:47
  Speaker 7: to pass this legislation, for the Senate to pass it,
• 25:49
  Speaker 7: to send it to the president's desk so it can
• 25:51
  Speaker 7: be signed into law.
• 25:52
  Speaker 8: I'm wondering when the last time the president spoke to
• 25:55
  Speaker 8: Leader Thune was and if he discussed using the standing
• 25:58
  Speaker 8: filibuster to pass legislation.
• 25:59
  Speaker 7: The president has given his position on the standing filibuster.
• 26:03
  Speaker 7: As for his most recent conversation with Leader Thune, frankly,
• 26:06
  Speaker 7: I'm not sure. I do know they speak very frequently.
• 26:08
  Speaker 7: The president's in constant communication with both Leader Thune and
• 26:11
  Speaker 7: the House Speaker Mike Johnson.
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, yes, thank you. Star Wars fan 1977 says,
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: God bless Reagan Reese. Reagan is asking these questions on
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: behalf of you. Reagan goes to the White House. She
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: speaks to the president. She speaks to the White House
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: press secretary. And unlike anybody else in that room, she's
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: keeping her eye on the ball, what matters to the
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: American people. And there she is asking these great questions.
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: And that follows on her previously speaking to the president,
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: I believe it was on Friday, on asking him whether
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: or not he wants to use the standing filibuster here.
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: And he told you that he does. That's what he wants.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: He wants the standing filibuster. So this continues. This effort continues.
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: These questions continue. And this focus continues thanks to your
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: concentrated efforts to get this priority legislation across the finish line,
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: which is really good. Zoidberg says she always asks some
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: good questions, often ones that other people aren't asking. Yeah, look,
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: I've had a lot of White House correspondents through the
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: years work for me, Reagan, the latest. And the piece
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: of advice that I always give them right at the top,
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: I give them multiple pieces of advice. One of them
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: is don't get sucked into the hive mind in that room.
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: Don't let that happen. And then because there is a
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: hive mind in that room. And two, that hive mind
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: means that a lot of the people who are in
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: that room ask the same sort of dumb question over
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: and over and over and over again. And my basic
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: point has always been, why do we send that many
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: people to the White House press conference if every single person,
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: especially in the front three rows, are all going to
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: ask the same exact question just using different wording? What's
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: the point of that? There should at least be a
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: different question in the room. If they're all going to
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: ask the same question, don't take up all that space.
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: Just have one person go and do that bit. Meanwhile,
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: there's other real questions that Americans have, like, how are
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: we going to protect our elections? And what effort are
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: you undertaking to do that? So Reagan's staying on top
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: of that. That's really good. Yeah, it is a hive
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: mind of stupidity. I completely agree with that.
• 28:18
  Speaker 9: All right.
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: Let's get into some other things coming up in a moment.
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: I want to talk to you about this big immigration
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: hearing that took place on the Hill yesterday. Just an
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: amazing performance by the guys who were in charge of
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: immigration enforcement in the United States. They have a lot
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: to be proud of, candidly. But Democrats turned this into
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: yet another ridiculous dog and pony show. But the problem is,
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: One of the big problems is not only are they
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: wasting the time of the American people, but they are
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: continuing to stoke the violence that we've seen against ICE
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: agents at the most disgusting levels. We'll go through that
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: in just a moment, all ahead on this edition of Vince.
• 29:00

  Speaker 1: Love that. That's that Bongino army I was just talking about.
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: Love that. But then I started scrolling down and ladies
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: and gentlemen, we've slipped a little bit. I was like
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: in the 30s the other day. And here we are.
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: Wait a second. Where are we at now? We're at
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: 47 right now. And look, there's a red down arrow.
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: This is not a sign of success. This is a
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: sign of abysmal failure. We have to do something about this.
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: We're at 47 right now. I'm wedged between the Wall
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: Street Journal and NPR. Let's get out of that legacy
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: media hellhole. Come on, push me up. Would you mind?
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: And one of them, I was doing some research and
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: I was like, well, how did the trending charts get affected?
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: It turns out subscribing on Spotify is one of the
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: most obvious ways. And the other is if you turn
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: on the show and you listen to it and you
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: play it through to completion, it apparently has some big
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: impact on the numbers. So whatever. The point is, I'm
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: super grateful for you guys subscribing. And thank you for
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: helping us in this fight. I'd love to dominate. I
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: just want to dominate. That's all. It's a very simple ask.
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: I just want to dominate everybody. And plus, Dan needs company.
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: The poor guy's just hanging out there by himself at
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: the top. He needs somebody to hang out with him.
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: Will you send me out there with him? I'd love
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: to do it. Love to be there. Thank you, as always. Okay,
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: let's talk. AFAZ is trying to buck me up. You
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: are not a failure. Thank you, AFAZ. Appreciate you. Let's see.
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: I've got this big hearing yesterday in the United States
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: House of Representatives with all these immigration enforcers. And Todd
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: Lyons is the acting ICE director. We don't hear a
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: ton from him, but he's leading a great agency and
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: they're conducting a very noble mission, which is to restore
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: orders to the United States of America and arrest a
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: lot of bad guys, get them the hell out of
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: our country. Here is Todd Lyons delivering a pretty sobering
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: opening statement yesterday about how tough this work for his
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: guys actually is.
• 34:48
  Speaker 10: Before discussing our broader operations, I must address the situation
• 34:52
  Speaker 10: in Minnesota and the dangers that ICE agents and officers
• 34:56
  Speaker 10: face nationwide. WHILE THE INVESTIGATIONS REMAIN ONGOING, I'M ENCOURAGED THAT
• 35:00
  Speaker 10: SOME MINNESOTA OFFICIALS ARE FINALLY SIGNALING THE WILLINGNESS TO COOPERATE
• 35:04
  Speaker 10: WITH ICE. LET ME BE CLEAR, PROMISES ARE NOT ENOUGH.
• 35:08
  Speaker 10: WE NEED ACTION. IN THE WAKE OF THE UNPRECEDENTED BORDER
• 35:11
  Speaker 10: CRISIS OF THE PREVIOUS ADMINISTRATION, ISIS STEPPED INTO THE BREACH
• 35:14
  Speaker 10: TO ENFORCE THE LAW. THIS COMMITMENT HAS A COST. WE
• 35:18
  Speaker 10: ARE FACING THE DEADLIEST OPERATING ENVIRONMENT IN OUR AGENCY'S HISTORY.
• 35:23
  Speaker 10: IN FISCAL YEAR 2025, DEATH THREATS AGAINST ICE PERSONNEL INCREASED
• 35:26
  Speaker 10: MORE THAN 8,000%. Assaults on officers have skyrocketed over 1,400%.
• 35:32
  Speaker 10: One officer in Minnesota had his finger bitten off by
• 35:34
  Speaker 10: a protester, egged on by elected officials characterizing our officers
• 35:38
  Speaker 10: as the Gestapo or secret police. The families of ICE
• 35:43
  Speaker 10: personnel have been made to feel unsafe in their homes.
• 35:45
  Speaker 10: I know this firsthand because my own family was targeted.
• 35:51
  Speaker 10: But let me send a message to anyone who thinks
• 35:52
  Speaker 10: they can intimidate us.
• 35:53
  Speaker 6: You will fail.
• 35:56
  Speaker 10: Despite these perils, our officers continue to execute their mission
• 35:59
  Speaker 10: with unwavering resolve. And we are only getting started. ICE
• 36:02
  Speaker 10: remains committed to the fundamental principles that those who illegally
• 36:06
  Speaker 10: enter our country must be held accountable.
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: I mean, think about operating under those conditions. And still,
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: the reports we're hearing is that ICE, in terms of
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: their morale, it's as high as it's been in many
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: years because their hands were tied under Joe Biden. They
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: weren't allowed to do their job. They were forced to
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: import people into the country rather than deport people from
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: the country. It's been a madhouse for them. And here
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: they are under these conditions, under constant threat, constant attempts
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: to assassinate them, assault them. Death threats are coming from
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: every direction. And Todd Lyons is saying, look, these are
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: very dangerous working conditions for these guys, yet they're still
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: doing the job. They're protecting our country. And for that,
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: I'm very grateful. I lift up a prayer constantly for
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: the men and women of ICE that they can do
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: this job safely and effectively and restore order to our country. Now,
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: despite the fact that he gave that very sober, opening statement.
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: It didn't stop Democrats from being full-blown lunatics who kept
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: breathing life into the threats against ICE. Let's start with
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: ridiculous Eric Swalwell. Eric Swalwell is a silly man. Eric Swalwell,
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: if there's a superlative for him, is the congressman that
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: I would most like to bully. Yes, that's right. I
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: think everybody would vote for Swalwell, the congressman most in
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: need of bullying, Eric Swalwell. Here he is yesterday, Attempting
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: to use this ridiculous, so this, quote, Liam Ramos story,
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: five-year-old boy, remember his father abandoned him as Ice was
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: in pursuit of the dad. They cared for the boy
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: until they got the father into custody, which is a
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: decent thing to do. And of course, what Ice does.
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: And instead, a photo of the boy being taken care
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: of by Ice has been used as a weapon against
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: Ice as if they were trying to capture the child
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: and use the child as bait and all this other garbage.
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: Eric Swalwell fell for that crap, and that's what led
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: to this exchange yesterday with Todd Lyons.
• 37:58
  Speaker 4: Considering your honorable service in the past and the dishonorable
• 38:03
  Speaker 4: acts that those who have worked for you have conducted
• 38:07
  Speaker 4: and the disgraceful statements that the leadership above you have said,
• 38:12
  Speaker 4: you now have a decision. Will you stand with the
• 38:16
  Speaker 4: kids who you're supposed to protect Or will you side
• 38:19
  Speaker 4: with the killers bringing terror to our streets?
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: Mr.
• 38:23
  Speaker 4: Lyons, will you resign from ICE?
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: No, sir, I won't.
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: Why not?
• 38:28
  Speaker 10: Because, sir, that child that you're showing right there, the
• 38:30
  Speaker 10: men and women of ICE took care of him when
• 38:31
  Speaker 10: his father abandoned him and ran from law enforcement.
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: Hellman's time has expired.
• 38:35
  Speaker 4: You never should have gone into custody.
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: Hellman's time has expired. It's almost so easy to dunk on.
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: It's hilarious. So Todd Lyons posterizes him yesterday by just
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: telling the truth. We took care of that kid. And
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: this idea that somehow, are you going to stand with
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: the killers? No, we're arresting killers. You complete jackass. We're
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: the ones who are arresting the killers and getting them
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: the hell out of this country. And the fact is,
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: the more lies you tell, the more threats we're going
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: to have to ICE. Dan Goldman is another ridiculous congressman.
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: His daddy bought him his seat. And Dan Goldman, he's
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: a Levi Strausser. He started once again accusing ICE agents
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: of being Nazis, the Gestapo, secret police. And it was
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: at that moment that Todd Lyons had to tell him,
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: you have no idea what you're talking about. So why
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: don't you go down the street to the Holocaust Museum
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: and get an education in world history before you start
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: accusing the good men and women of Americanism? law enforcement
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: of being Nazis? Watch that. No, I'll tell you what
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: the wrong type of thing is, sir. It's my time.
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: Reclaiming my time, sir. If you want to go see Nazis,
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: that's what it is.
• 39:43
  Speaker 10: It's not the men and women of vice that are
• 39:44
  Speaker 10: out there doing it every day.
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: So to say it to men and women of ICE
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: and Gestapo.
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: Mr.
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: Chairman, I'm reclaiming my time.
• 39:49
  Speaker 8: I would like my time back, please.
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: Please give me another 15 seconds because he was unnecessarily speaking.
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: You said in your opening statement that references to ICE
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: as the Gestapo or the secret police encourages threats against
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: ICE agents.
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: The problem is you have it backwards, sir. So this
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: guy Goldman saying that these guys are like Nazis, this
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: is their behavior. They're like the Gestapo, the secret police.
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: That guy's a scumbag. That little brat is a scumbag.
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: And he does this all the time. And there he
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: is yet again, given this defamatory description of ICE. He's
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: defaming ICE agents. And Todd Lyons says, you have no
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: idea what you're talking about. He actually gives us a
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: good faith interpretation that he just is probably ignorant. There's
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: no way he could be that evil, Todd Lyons thinks
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: to himself. You just have to be ignorant. So what
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: you should do is you should go down the street
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: to the Holocaust Museum and learn something about the actual
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: Nazis before you accuse the men and women who are
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: upholding the law passed by this body of being Nazis.
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: You absolute scumbag. That's Goldman. And then there's LaMonica McIver,
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: New Jersey congresswoman, Democrat. She assaulted ICE officers. So yesterday
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: she decided to use her time on the dais to
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: accuse Todd Lyons of having blood on his hands. And
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: she said, he's going to hell. Listen to this insanity
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: from a woman who assaulted ICE officers.
• 41:35
  Speaker 4: Mr.
• 41:35
  Speaker 11: Lyons, do you consider yourself a religious man?
• 41:38
  Speaker 3: Yes, ma'am. Oh, yes.
• 41:40
  Speaker 9: Okay.
• 41:40
  Speaker 11: Well, how do you think Judgment Day will work for
• 41:42
  Speaker 11: you with so much blood on your hands?
• 41:46
  Speaker 10: I'm not going to entertain that question.
• 41:47
  Speaker 3: Oh, okay.
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: Of course not.
• 41:48
  Speaker 11: Do you think you're going to hell, Mr.
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: Lyons? I'm not going to entertain that question. Of course not.
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: The gentlelady will suspend. The gentlelady will suspend.
• 41:56
  Speaker 11: Chairman.
• 41:57
  Speaker 8: The gentlelady will suspend. As I said, the issues we're
• 42:00
  Speaker 8: debating here are important to ones.
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: That members feel deeply about.
• 42:03
  Speaker 11: Thank you, Chairman.
• 42:04
  Speaker 8: While vigorous disagreements is part of the legislative process, members
• 42:08
  Speaker 8: are reminded that we must adhere to established standards of
• 42:10
  Speaker 8: decorum and debate. The witnesses are here voluntarily, and I
• 42:14
  Speaker 8: will continue to remind members that while oversight is important,
• 42:18
  Speaker 8: aggressively attacking those witnesses personally is inappropriate and not in
• 42:23
  Speaker 8: keeping with the traditions of our committee.
• 42:25
  Speaker 2: Mr.
• 42:25
  Speaker 11: Chairman, I'm just asking a question. You guys are always
• 42:28
  Speaker 11: talking about religion here in the Bible. I mean, it's
• 42:30
  Speaker 11: okay for me to ask a question, right?
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: She's asking.
• 42:32
  Speaker 11: But let me continue on. I got your notes.
• 42:34
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: The gentlelady may resume.
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: Thank you so much.
• 42:36
  Speaker 11: Let me get back to my question, Mr.
• 42:38
  Speaker 6: Chairman.
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: Thank you.
• 42:38
  Speaker 11: I appreciate you.
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: She's just asking questions. You know, if there's a soul
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: to pray for in that conversation, it's hers. What she
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: just did was evil. That was evil. Yeah, Todd Lyons
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: is a good man doing a good job. trying to
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: clean up the country, getting rid of bad people who
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: are hurting Americans. And she's taking the side of the
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: criminals and then saying that the law enforcement, the guys, sheepdogs,
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: the guys who are protecting the country, that they're going
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: to hell. It's a perfect inversion of the truth and really,
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: really disgraceful. Once again, on display yesterday. And then there's
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: silly Sri Tendar, the ridiculous Indian dude, in Congress with
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: the bizarro wig. He said that Democrats are going to,
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: he's so stupid, he doesn't even realize what he said.
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: He announced yesterday that the second Democrats are back in power,
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: they're going to prosecute anybody who's enforcing American immigration law.
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: In other words, Democrats are going to abuse their power
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: immediately upon regaining it. Here is the embarrassing Democrat Congressman
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: Sri Tanadar yesterday.
• 43:59
  Speaker 3: You better hope so. You better hope you get pardoned
• 44:02
  Speaker 3: because you will be held accountable for the absolute disregard
• 44:06
  Speaker 3: of the law your agencies have shown over the past year.
• 44:11
  Speaker 3: Your agencies have lost the trust.
• 44:15
  Speaker 5: Of the American people with millions taking to the streets
• 44:21
  Speaker 5: to protect the illegal actions of your agencies. And that's
• 44:27
  Speaker 5: why I introduce a bill in the United States Congress
• 44:32
  Speaker 5: to abolish ICE. ICE must be abolished.
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: He kept, he went on, he kept saying that, oh,
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: is Trump going to pardon you? You guys all going
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: to get pardons on the way out the door? Because
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: obviously the implied implication is implied implication is redundant. The
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: implication is that they're going to prosecute these guys. That
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: ICE agents, ICE directors, ICE officials, they're all going to
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: be prosecuted by Democrats the second they get power back.
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: That's Sri Tandar. I want to impeach everybody. And as
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: soon as I get power, I'm going to abuse it.
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: I'm going to prosecute you. Thanks, Sri. Let's keep you
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: away from power. Let's do that. Thanks for saying it
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: out loud. Speaking of what the good men and women
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: of ICE have been doing, you know they've been arresting
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: the insurgents in Minnesota by the thousands?
• 45:28
  Speaker 9: You know that?
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: In fact, that detail's kind of skipped past the entire media,
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: with the exception of places like the Daily Caller. Take
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: a look at this. ICE has been dropping the hammer
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: on Minnesota agitators, shadowing agents on the street. This is
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: a report from yesterday. ICE report, excuse me, Daily Call
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: report from yesterday. United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement, ICE agents,
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: are detaining and arresting legal observers using their vehicles to
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: follow agents during federal enforcement operations. ICE has been reportedly
• 46:06
  Speaker 1: detaining and arresting thousands of Minnesota protesters under Title 18,
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: Section 111 of the U.S. Code. which prohibits citizens from
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: interfering with a federal officer conducting official duties, according to Reuters.
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: A recent trend, of course, had begun among these protesters,
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: these insurgents, to follow ICE agents in their vehicles as
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: quote-unquote legal observers. The Trump administration has charged at least
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: 655 people using Title 18, which is double in comparison
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: to the same period between 2024 and 2025. DHS spokeswoman
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: Tricia McLaughlin telling Reuters, when agitators willingly involve themselves and
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: inject themselves in law enforcement operations, they are risking arrest
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: as well as jeopardizing the safety of themselves and those
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: around them. So this is a good, this is a
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: very positive sign. You know, things in Minnesota have cooled
• 47:01
  Speaker 1: down a little bit. Tom Holman is there and he's
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: got what appears to be Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Fry and
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: the governor tampon Tim Walz and something of a chokehold.
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: He's getting them to actually turn over illegal aliens that
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: are being taken into custody in Minnesota. And as a result,
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: has been able to reallocate some immigration resources to other
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: hotbeds of illegal aliens in the country right now. So
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: that's been very productive. And thousands of arrests being made
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: by ICE right now of the people who are stalking
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: them in the streets of Minnesota. That's also a very
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: healthy development in terms of restoring order. So interesting and
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: glad to have that. Let's see. I've got speaking of Minnesota.
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: I've got another thing for you, which is President Trump
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: just announced this week. You did an interview and with
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: Larry Kudlow. Actually, he sat with Larry Kudlow and he
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: was talking about the fraud in Minnesota. And he goes,
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: we still have a lot of these Somalis who are
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: in Minnesota have committed a lot of fraud. It's terrible
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: what's happened. And they've got this fake congresswoman, he says.
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: That's his words. Fake congresswoman. He's describing Ilhan Omar. Listen
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: to the president of the United States describe what's happening
• 48:13
  Speaker 1: right now. So you're going to still go after the
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: whole waste, fraud and abuse issue?
• 48:17
  Speaker 9: Well, I am in Minnesota. Take a look at Minnesota.
• 48:20
  Speaker 9: So we think it's at least $ 19 billion of fraud, medical,
• 48:25
  Speaker 9: every fraud. Somalia has come in here. What they've done
• 48:29
  Speaker 9: to our country, these people, they've come into our country.
• 48:33
  Speaker 9: And what they've done with that fake congresswoman, she's so bad. No,
• 48:38
  Speaker 9: we're going to get to the bottom of it.
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we're going to get to the bottom of it.
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: That fake congresswoman, she's so bad. She did commit immigration
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: fraud to get her brother into the country. She married
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: the brother in order to get him in. And she's
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: got a long track record of being a fraudster. She's
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: worth like, you know, what is she worth now? $ 30
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: million or something? It's crazy how much she's worth now
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: with a wine company that doesn't produce any wine, doesn't
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: sell it anywhere. And now she's absurdly wealthy. in a
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: year's time? Somebody answer that. So the president is saying, look,
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: she's a fake congresswoman. She's a ridiculous human being. Now,
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: having said all that, she is ridiculous. And also, she's
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: so poisonous. You see the way she reacted to this
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: Trump clip? So that clip of President Trump and Larry
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: Kudlow is going around. Look at what she said. Should
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: the Secret Service be involved here? She says this, the
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: leader of the pedophile protection party is trying to deflect
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: attention from his name being all over the Epstein files.
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: At least in Somalia, they execute pedophiles, not elect them.
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: Not elect them. Who was elected here?
• 49:55
  Speaker 3: Trump.
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: He's the leader of the pedophile protection party, she smears.
• 50:02
  Speaker 1: She says they would execute him in Somalia. Well, Somalia
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: is a third world hellhole. And there's a reason we
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: don't live in Somalia. There's a reason we prefer the
• 50:11
  Speaker 1: United States of America. And there's a reason we don't
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: want to become Somalia. Does Somalia have a functioning justice system?
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: Did they just accuse people of being pedophiles and then
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: execute them on the spot? Is that because that's what
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: you're doing? If this is a cultural thing, Ilhan, you're
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: reflecting that culture very poorly because you're conveying that the
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: way to handle the guys you don't like is to
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: kill them. You complete psycho. And also on this thing
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: about Epstein and Trump, it bears repeating the most obvious
• 50:42
  Speaker 1: details in the world, which is that Donald Trump was
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: essential to bringing Jeffrey Epstein down. I've been through this
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: a million times, you know, from President Trump kicking Epstein
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: out of Mar-a-Lago to helping out the victim's attorney being
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: the one guy that they could rely on. They place
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: a phone call. He's like, I'm ready to help you.
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: Whatever you need, you call me. That was President Trump
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: throughout all of this. We got another gigantic piece of
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: information to that effect this week. because in the Epstein files,
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: we find out that President Trump personally called the cops
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: on Epstein for being creepy around teenage girls. One of
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: the documents that the Justice Department released this past week
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: showed that President Trump called the police on Epstein to
• 51:29
  Speaker 1: alert them that he was sexually abusing underage girls. Trump
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: alerted the Palm Beach Police Department of Epstein's actions and
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: told the then police chief, Michael Reiter, quote, thank goodness
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: you're stopping him because everyone has known he's been doing this.
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: Reiter gave a 2019 interview to the Federal Bureau of
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: Investigation where he recounted all of this. Trump was one
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: of the first people to call authorities when the department
• 51:54
  Speaker 1: began investigating Epstein for sexual misconduct in 2006. Trump also
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: told the police he was, quote, around Epstein when teenagers
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: were present, and he got the hell out of there,
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: according to the document. He told the police that they
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: should also focus their attention on Ghislaine Maxwell, who he
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: called evil. Reuters revealed this information to the FBI that
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: was October of 2019, two months after prison guards had
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: found Epstein dead in his cell, according to the memo.
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: So in other words, President Trump is a hero in
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: this Epstein saga, and the thanks he gets from Democrats...
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: is to smear him. A wrap-up smear continues from such
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: venomous people as Ilhan Omar, who is now calling for
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: the execution of the President of the United States. Maybe
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: a Secret Service visit would do her well. Maybe that
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: would help. One last thing for you. We had a
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: small explosion of developments in the Nancy Guthrie saga yesterday,
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: and that is thanks to the FBI and Google working
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: together to produce images from a doorbell camera, a Google
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: Nest doorbell camera, that everyone had assumed did not capture
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: footage of the suspect, at least up until yesterday. That
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: Google Nest camera did not have a subscription paid for,
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: we're told, by the Guthrie family. Nobody was paying to
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: keep a subscription on it so that it could save
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: the old videos. But according to the reporting we've seen
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: in the last 24 hours, apparently Google went in and
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: their technicians were able to, through some difficult process, at
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: least this is the way it's being conveyed to us,
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: were able to finally secure this imagery and footage and
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: then share it with the public or share it with
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: the FBI, who in turn shared it with the public.
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: And that brings us to Kash Patel's post on the subject.
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: He posted this yesterday. This was midday yesterday. He said,
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: new images in the search for Nancy Guthrie. Over the
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: last eight days, the FBI and Pima County Sheriff's Department
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: have been working closely with our private sector partners, that
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: would be Google in this case, to recover any images
• 54:08
  Speaker 1: or video from Nancy Guthrie's home that may have been lost, corrupted,
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: or inaccessible. The video was recovered from residual data located
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: in back-end systems. And so they shared the images, and
• 54:18
  Speaker 1: the images here They show the suspect standing on Nancy
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: Guthrie's porch and approaching the camera. And you can see
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: in all of these images, like, you know, he's holding
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: up foliage to try and block the camera. He's got
• 54:32
  Speaker 1: a little flashlight inside that he's biting on in his
• 54:36
  Speaker 1: mouth that's pointing in the direction of the camera, wearing
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: a ski mask. He's got a jacket with some reflective
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: features on it. He's wearing a backpack. He tries to
• 54:45
  Speaker 1: cover the camera at one point with his hand. And
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: so that has produced relatively clear images. It does look
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: like he's got a mustache here, by the way. And
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: so everyone, the whole internet's all buzzing about this thing,
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: trying to figure out who the hell this guy is. Additionally,
• 55:03
  Speaker 1: we actually have video of the guy approaching the camera.
• 55:06
  Speaker 1: And you'll see, those of you watching rumble.com slash Vince,
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: he takes his hand and he tries to cover the camera.
• 55:11
  Speaker 1: It's almost like he didn't know the camera was there.
• 55:13
  Speaker 1: He walks up. He tries to cover the camera with
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: one hand, and it looks like his other hand actually dropped, perhaps,
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: to press the doorbell itself. Look at this, for those
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: of you watching. His lower thumb goes to press a button.
• 55:29
  Speaker 1: He's pushing. Maybe he's pushing the actual doorbell there to
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: try and solicit a response from Nancy Guthrie to get
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: her to answer the door. As he walks up, you
• 55:39
  Speaker 1: can see he looks like he's got a gun holstered openly. It's...
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: It's carried. It's almost like an appendix carry. He's carrying
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: it outside of his clothing. Authorities suggesting that perhaps this
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: was an intimidation tactic. He's wearing very thick gloves, by
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: the way. Any of you shooters out there? It looks
• 56:02
  Speaker 1: like the gloves are thick. They don't look conducive to
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: actually sticking your finger into a trigger and pulling it.
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: You typically need gloves that are a little more form-fitting
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: if you're going to handle a weapon. But there he is.
• 56:15
  Speaker 1: on the porch. He's got his backpack. He strolls off,
• 56:17
  Speaker 1: grabs some foliage, and then he takes the foliage, the
• 56:21
  Speaker 1: plant material, whatever he grabbed off the ground, and he
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: tries to use it to cover the camera up. This
• 56:26
  Speaker 1: seems like a very amateurish thing. So that's the footage.
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: That's what the FBI has released. And in case you're wondering, yeah,
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: Google can still access images even if you don't subscribe,
• 56:42
  Speaker 1: just so you know. That's That's one of the lessons
• 56:45
  Speaker 1: in all of this. A blood trail has been discovered
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: outside of the home. Fox News reports, they talk to
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: sources that tell them that there was a blood trail,
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: blood droplets discovered on Nancy Guthrie's porch, according to law enforcement.
• 56:57
  Speaker 1: It went from the front entrance of the home to
• 56:59
  Speaker 1: the edge of the driveway. Authorities have confirmed the blood
• 57:03
  Speaker 1: belonged to Guthrie, to Nancy Guthrie. It's her blood. That's
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: just awful. You can even see here in the law
• 57:11
  Speaker 1: enforcement photos, look at that. You can see the foliage
• 57:14
  Speaker 1: on the ground that had been used to try and
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: cover the camera. It's just sitting there right where the
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: doorbell camera is. So that's the update there. So they
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: took a guy into custody last night. As I was
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: heading to bed last night, I'm seeing all these reports
• 57:28
  Speaker 1: that they took a man into custody. They detained him.
• 57:32
  Speaker 1: He's an Arizona DoorDash driver who identified himself only by
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: the name Carlos to the media agency. Basically, cops take
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: him into custody. They had him for a bit and
• 57:43
  Speaker 1: and then they released him because I guess they assume
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: he's not their suspect. And Carlos, he talked to the
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: media last night. Here he is being interviewed as CBS
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: reporter capturing some of this footage explaining what he just
• 57:57
  Speaker 1: went through. Here's Carlos Washington.
• 57:59
  Speaker 3: Are you shocked?
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: Fuck yeah, I was.
• 58:01
  Speaker 2: Come on.
• 58:01
  Speaker 1: They helped me against my will. They didn't even give
• 58:04
  Speaker 1: me my rights until two hours later.
• 58:05
  Speaker 2: Okay?
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean? My wrist is all fucking swollen.
• 58:08
  Speaker 3: From the handcuffs?
• 58:24
  Speaker 1: You know, he's this guy. I don't know anything. I
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: don't know anything. Somebody in the media asked him, like, hey,
• 58:30
  Speaker 1: did you do a DoorDash delivery to that house? And
• 58:33
  Speaker 1: he says he doesn't know. Well, that may be what's
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: going on here. They may have geolocated this dude based
• 58:39
  Speaker 1: on his cell phone. It may have been that very
• 58:41
  Speaker 1: night that he had stopped by. Law enforcement doesn't pick
• 58:44
  Speaker 1: him up for no reason. It's not like they just
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: went and hassled him for no reason. And there are
• 58:49
  Speaker 1: reports that the authorities spoke to one of his relatives
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: and authorities asked, hey, do you recognize this guy? They
• 58:56
  Speaker 1: showed her the image and she said, well, it kind
• 58:59
  Speaker 1: of looks like his eyes. So maybe that was enough
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: for them to decide, okay, this is somebody we should question.
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: They questioned him and then they let him go. Now,
• 59:07
  Speaker 1: does it mean they're done with him? No, it doesn't
• 59:09
  Speaker 1: mean anything. It's means that they talked to the guy
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: and they may circle back to him at some point.
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: But for now, a flurry of developments in the Nancy
• 59:18
  Speaker 1: Guthrie case, it seems like now we finally have some
• 59:21
  Speaker 1: very meaningful puzzle pieces and hopefully they can get to
• 59:23
  Speaker 1: the bottom of this thing really quickly. The president of
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: the United States is very on top of this, to
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: be clear. Caroline Levitt said yesterday at the White House
• 59:30
  Speaker 1: press briefing that they are very eager to get to
• 59:34
  Speaker 1: the bottom of this because it's a horrifying crime against
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: an elderly woman. And the president wants to see it
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: brought to justice and wants to see Nancy Guthrie rescued.
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: He's a decent guy. He's a he's a great president.
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: Glad we have him. And I'm glad I have you.
• 59:47
  Speaker 1: You're the best audience anywhere. You really are. We got
• 59:50
  Speaker 1: a lot more to get to. Would you thank you?
• 59:52
  Speaker 1: Lucas MP 47 has jumped in on Spotify and followed.
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: Thank you for that. If you wouldn't mind following on Spotify,
• 59:59
  Speaker 1: if that's something that you've got some bandwidth for, I'd
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: appreciate the click and the download on the podcasts there
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 1: on Spotify. Whatever we can do to get up there.
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 1: I want to help Dan out because poor Dan is
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: all by himself at the top, and he really needs
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 1: company up there. Joe Rogan's not going to cut it.
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 1: Seems like a nice guy, but come on now. Dan
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 1: needs one of his boys to show up. I'll be
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: there for him. Let's do that. Ladies and gentlemen, thank you. Again,
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: Sean Farish is going to be with you tomorrow on
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 1: the show. He's filling in for me. I'm taking, I'm
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 1: not on the radio show today. I'm not on the
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: radio show tomorrow. I'm taking those off. And then Sean's
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 1: filling in on the podcast in the morning. I'm off
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 1: to the hospital here. And I don't know, whenever my
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 1: wife takes me, we're going soon. And we're going to
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 1: knock out a quick surgery. It's going to be totally awesome.
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: It's going to be wonderful. And then I'll be right
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 1: back with you on Friday. We're going to have huge
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: shows for you. I promise. I have all this time
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 1: laid up, just staring at the news and obsessing over
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 1: what I'm going to talk about with you next time
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 1: I see you. Thank you very much. Great to chat today.

• 1:01:08
  Speaker 6: I think a lot of people are underestimating the Trump
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 6: effect in this midterm. You've heard it yourself. Act like
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 6: I'm on the ballot. Why is he saying that? You
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 6: think he doesn't know what he's doing? That is the
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 6: X factor. Folks, elections are a math issue. That is it.
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 1: This is not a football game. If you vote, we
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 1: will win. It is not complicated. The Dan Bongino Show.
