Laken Riley Trial Begins, Detailing Her Horrifying Murder, plus Dems Brazenly Trying to STEAL Pennsylvania Senate Election · The 47 Morning Update with Ben Ferguson

• 0:01
  Speaker 1: Welcome.
• 0:01
  Speaker 2: It is verdict with Senator Ted Cruz Ben Ferguson with
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: you and Senator it is a big fight right now
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: for this country and what's going to happen early on
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: on border security. There are concerns that there's going to
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: be a major surge of illegal immigrants coming across the border,
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: and there's also the reality that there's still serious crimes
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: that are happening, including some high profile trials that are
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: going on right now.
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: Well right now, the Lake and Riley trial is unfolding,
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: and there was no issue more front and center in
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: this election than the invasion at our southern border and
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: Lake and Riley, as much as anybody came to signify
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: what the stakes are and the tragic circumstances that unfolded
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: in Georgia with Lake and Riley. They horrified the country,
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: and we're seeing the testimony of exactly what happened that's
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: going to end, that is going to end. On January twentieth,
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: we are days away from the border being we're going
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: to talk about lakeln Riley, We're going to talk about
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: what's going to happen to finally, finally, finally secure the border.
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: We're also seeing ironically the Democrats shamelessly trying to steal
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: an election in Pennsylvania. I say ironically because the Democrats
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: prattled on for two years about how they're the party
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: that's defending democracy, and yet they are right now in
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: Pennsylvania trying to steal the Senate race. They are defying
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: the orders of the state Supreme Court. We're going to
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: walk through that as well. And finally we're going to
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: talk about the Democrats in the wake of the election.
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: They have a solution, They have an answer for how
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: to solve their problems with the voters, and their answer
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: is censorship. They want to silence any criticism. They want
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: to ensure that no one can ever disagree with them.
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: We're going to break that down to.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's really important story. I want to talk to
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: you real quick about the holidays. And when it comes
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: to holidays, you want to spend time with your family.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: You also when you spend time with your family, you're
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: probably thinking about making sure that they are safe. Well,
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: there is one gift you may want to put on
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: your list this Christmas, and it is a gift especially
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: for loved ones that maybe aren't old enough to carry
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: a firearm yet. Or maybe don't feel comfortable. I want
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: you to know about BURNA. BURNA is an incredible option
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: to protect yourself and put distance between you and a
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: threat like never before, much more than you can with
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: pepper spray or with a taser. A burna less lethal
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: pistol launcher is truly amazing. Now I have them, and
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: I've got them for multiple family members. Now it is
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: a great compliment by the way to owning a firearm.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: And if your family is in a situation where you
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: feel threatened or they feel threatened, and you can start
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: with less lethal, this is the way to go. It
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: is legal in all fifty states. There are no permits
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: or background checks needed. Now the best part about this
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: is its easy use by all ages eighteen and older.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: The burner launcher has powerful deterrence like pepper spray, tear gas,
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: and kinetic rounds. With a sixty foot range, one shot
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: can incapacitate and attacker for up to forty minutes. It
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: is used by government agencies and law enforcing around the
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: country and more than a half million of these have
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: been sold. They also have more than fourteen thousand, four
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: and a half star reviews. Now, I want you to
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: go see how this works, and once you see it,
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: you're going to be like, I need that. And there's
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: so many my family members, So whether it's a grandson,
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: a granddaughter, maybe someone that went off to school, your wife,
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: your mother, maybe they don't feel comfortable carrying a firearm.
• 3:30

  Speaker 2: com slash verdict. Senator, Let's start with this trial. As
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: the audio from this trial came out, I was in
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: New York City on set it Outnumbered right when they
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: went live, and the nine to one one call as
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: well as the bodycam audio from the officer was stunning.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: It was shocking. It made me angry.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: It made everybody on set just furious and so sad
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: that Lake and Riley fought for eighteen minutes to try
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: to save her life. This is a situation that never
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: should have happened because this person should have never been
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: in the United States of America, and it was because
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: of the Biden Harris policies that this monster was able
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: to take her life.
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: Well, that's exactly right. And it was heartbreaking as lake
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: and Riley's mom wept in court listening to the nine
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: one one call eighteen minutes, eighteen minutes that Lake and
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: Riley fought. She fought, she fought to avoid being raped,
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: she fought for her life, and tragically, at the end,
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: this this monster, this murderer, bashed her head in with
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: a rock and it's horrific and it's preventable. What is
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: so so infuriating is that this should never have happened.
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: And I want you to I want you to listen
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: to Bill Malugin from Fox reporting on the opening statements
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: of the trial that really laid out the tragedy of
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: what unfolded. Dana.
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: It was really hard to listen to that opening statement
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: from the prosecutor, the condition that Lake and Riley's body
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: was found, in the fact that her garment watch tracked
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: the very moment her heart stopped, I can only imagine
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: being her family. I think this just shows why we
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: as in network made it such a priority to cover
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: the border so much these last few years. These mass
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: catch and release policies, they have consequences, real world consequences
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: that affect real people, particularly when it comes to the
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: mass catching release of Venezuelan men. I mean, how many
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: live shots were we doing together in twenty twenty two
• 6:01
  Speaker 4: to twenty twenty three, hundreds of them in Eagle Pass
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: in El Paso, watching these lines of hundreds of upon
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: hundreds of Venezuelan men just walking into the country, single
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: file every day, not running, not hiding, very nonchalant because
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: they knew they were going to be released into the
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: country with a court date potentially years away. And the
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: problem with that is you can't vet Venezuelan men. Venezuela
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: does not cooperate with the US. We have no database,
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: no records to run their names against. So what you're
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: listening to right now with this horrible case with Lake
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: and Riley, unfortunately it's not even an isolated incident. What
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: happened just a few months later, Joscelyn Nungary was murdered
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: in Houston, A twelve year old girl allegedly sexually assaulted
• 6:47
  Speaker 4: and murdered at the hands of two Venezuelan illegal aliens
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: who have been caught and released at.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: The Texas border just weeks prior. Sound familiar.
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: Unfortunately, It's been happening all over the country, whether it's
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: frend de Aragua setting up footholds across the country, migrant
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: crime happening in different cities across the country. The idea
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: that what happens at the border stays at the border
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: ended a long time ago. You look at Rachel Morin,
• 7:15
  Speaker 4: she was murdered in Maryland. You look at lakeln Riley,
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: that happened in Georgia. Joscelyn Nunger eight was in Houston.
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: These catch and release policies affect the entire country. And
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: say what you want about Donald Trump and the way
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: he campaigns, but at his rallies, he wasn't bringing celebrities
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: up on stage. Who was he bringing up Joscelyn Nungary's mom,
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: Rachel Morin's mom, Real people who suffered horrible, horrible, horrible
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: consequences as a result of these catch and release policies.
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: Listen about to you, Bill Mallision, It is interesting to
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: imagine that you actually could have been standing right there,
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: or Griff Jenkins could have been reporting to us on
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: live shots as we watched people just stream across. And
• 7:54
  Speaker 5: it's certainly possible that we were down there when he
• 7:58
  Speaker 5: crossed over and before he came to New York. Bill Millisian,
• 8:01
  Speaker 5: thank you so much.
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: The question that so many people have after hearing that
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: centater is how much longer is this going to happen?
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: Because we're even hearing reports of surges of illegal immigrants
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: that may be trying to get across before Donald Trump
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: takes office. And this is because they still refuse to
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: act at the White House.
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: Well, Joe bud and Kamala Harris, they want every illegal
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: alien possible to come into this country between now and
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: January twentieth because they look at every one of them
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: as a future Democrat voter. And you know the the
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: trial of Lake and Riley's murderer where they played the
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: nine one one call, They went through the timeline and
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: one of the things Lake and Riley she wasn't killed
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: at two in the morning. She was killed just after
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: nine am. She left the home her home jogging on
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: the University of Georgia campus at nine oh three am.
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: She was seen at nine oh five am jogging with
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: her cell phone in her hand and then at nine
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: eleven am, she called nine one one while running, and
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: there was a minute long recording where you can hear
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: a male voice, and the jury heard the operator repeating
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: herself saying Clark County nine one one, Hello, Clark County
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: nine one one, Can anyone hear me? The call ended
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: at nine to twelve am. And if you can imagine,
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: Riley's mom listened to that in court, the suspect didn't
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: even his face didn't move, He had no reaction as
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: he listened to what happened. And the prosecution laid out
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: that this murderer was quote hunting for females on the
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: campus when he came upon Riley. And here's what the
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: prosecutor said to the jury. She said, quote when Lake
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: and Riley refused to be his rape victim, he bashed
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: her skull in with a rock repeatedly. The evidence will
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: show that Laken fought, She fought for her life, she
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: fought for her dignity, and in that fight, she caused
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: this defendant to leave forensic evidence behind. She also marked
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: her killer for the entire world to see. I've got
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: to say the tragedy of what happened to Lake and Riley,
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: the tragedy of what happened to Joscelyn Hungary, the tragedy
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: of what happened to Rachel Marin, the tragedy of what
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: has happened over and over and over again. All of
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: this was preventable. But we can at least take solace
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: that we will see crimes like this begin to be
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: prevented on January twentieth.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: You mentioned January the twentieth, and obviously that's coming soon,
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: not soon enough.
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: But is there no is there no chain.
• 11:00
  Speaker 6: Of your colleagues that realize what this election was about
• 11:03
  Speaker 6: in DC where they say, hey, guys, maybe we want
• 11:06
  Speaker 6: to get ahead of this. Maybe we really really misread
• 11:11
  Speaker 6: this with the American people. Maybe we should start now
• 11:14
  Speaker 6: and not just allow for these open borders. Or is
• 11:18
  Speaker 6: this just the official policy the Democratic Party that we
• 11:21
  Speaker 6: are always open borders no matter what.
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: So I don't know. It has not been very long
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: since election day. We were back in session last week,
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: so I was there with the Democrat senators. I'll tell
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: you they're just kind of a little shell shocked. I
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: think they're stunned by the election results. Will see if
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: they change. I'll tell you what I am urging. I
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: would like to see us in January, when we get
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: the new Congress sworn in, I'd like to see one
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: of the very first bills that we vote on be
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: the Justice for Joscelynak, the law that I've introduced that
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: mandates that when illegal immigrants are detained, that they be
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: kept in attention, that they not be released as long
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: as there are detention facilities there for them. I'd like
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: to see that vote early on and put every Democrat
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: on record, and we'll see. Maybe they look at these
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: election results and say, Okay, we've got to change, or
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: maybe they don't. Maybe they dig in and say we
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: don't care and we're going to keep doing the same
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: thing over and over again. But I think we ought
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: to force them in January go on record. Have you
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: listened to a word the voter said? Or are you
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: just are you just stuck on open borders, no matter
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: who dies, no matter who suffers, no matter who the victims.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: Are part of the story.
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: And I think it's important for people to understand Lake
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: and Riley's murderer entered the country illegally back in twenty
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: twenty two. There's a timeline and we knew that this
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: person was in the country illegally, and yet we kept
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: allowing him to come back.
• 12:56
  Speaker 5: Listen, see, I want to just remind everybody how did
• 12:58
  Speaker 5: Jose Bera get here and how do we get to
• 13:00
  Speaker 5: this point? So in September of twenty twenty two, he
• 13:04
  Speaker 5: crossed illegally on the west side of Texas in El Paso.
• 13:07
  Speaker 5: He makes his way all the way to New York
• 13:10
  Speaker 5: and that was in September of twenty twenty three. As
• 13:12
  Speaker 5: we've seen a pattern, arrested in New York City then,
• 13:17
  Speaker 5: but let go makes his way down to Georgia, and
• 13:20
  Speaker 5: in October twenty twenty three he was cited for shoplifting. Okay,
• 13:24
  Speaker 5: that's crime, but he's let go again. And in February
• 13:26
  Speaker 5: of twenty twenty four, this is when he is This
• 13:29
  Speaker 5: is the date where he is charged with the killing
• 13:32
  Speaker 5: of Lake and Riley. So I was just looking the
• 13:34
  Speaker 5: bigger picture, Shannon Well. Under President Trump, these are the
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: types of numbers you're looking at for ice removals of
• 13:40
  Speaker 5: illegal immigrants who were for whatever reason, we're in the
• 13:44
  Speaker 5: country illegally, but also criminals that were in the country illegally.
• 13:48
  Speaker 5: Then you look at the Biden administration, and those are
• 13:50
  Speaker 5: the numbers. And that's one of the reasons you see
• 13:52
  Speaker 5: this number, Shannon, which I think is amazing, immigration being
• 13:55
  Speaker 5: the most important issue either overall and in Georgia twenty
• 13:59
  Speaker 5: percent eighteen. But look at the difference in twenty twenty
• 14:02
  Speaker 5: it was three percent four percent. So something happened. I
• 14:06
  Speaker 5: think we all know what it was, which is the
• 14:07
  Speaker 5: change from Biden to Trump on border policy.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: There it is Biden and Trump on border policy.
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: And understand that timeline ben three times this murder. And
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: by the way, you will notice, I will not say
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: his name, I will not say the names of any
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: of these bastards. I'll say the names of the victims.
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: But these bastards deserve to be forgotten. They deserve to
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: be prosecuted and executed and utterly forgotten because they are
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: evil what they have done to these victims. But this
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: monster three times was apprehended, three times he was let go.
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: The first time he was apprehended was in twenty twenty
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: two in El Paso, Texas, and Joe Biden and Kamala
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: Harris and the Democrats let him go. Had they followed
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: the law, then, had they put him on a plane.
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: Had they flown them back to Venezuela, had they kept
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: him in detention, Lake and Riley would be alive. The
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: second time he was arrested and let Go was in
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: New York again, New York Democratic prosecutors. He was charged
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: with endangering the safety of a child, but let go again.
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: The third time he was arrested and let Go was
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: in Georgia again, Democrat prosecutors. Over and over and over again.
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: There is a pattern and the good news. You know,
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: people wonder, well, well, how does this change so quickly?
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: Why does January twentieth matter so much? Well, look, on
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: January twentieth, we're not going to build any new wall.
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: On January twentieth, we're not going to likely hire any
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: new border patrol agent. So you wonder what can change
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: so quickly? And what can change so quickly is a
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: simple policy decision. On January twentieth, I am absolutely certain
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: that Donald Trump will instruct the border patrol catch and
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: release ends. Now, if you apprehend someone, you detain them,
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: and we deport them. And the thing to understand, not
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: only does that mean the first step in the timeline
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: of the Lake and Riley murderer ends, because they never
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: let him go in twenty twenty two. But it also
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: means the numbers plummet because everyone who comes, they have
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: cell phones, They call their friends, they call their family.
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: So on January twentieth, and by the way, people are
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: going to know this on January tenth, they're going to
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: know this is what Trump's going to do. So it's
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: not even going to take the phone calls. It's going
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: to take uh oh, there's a new sheriff in town.
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: And we will see, mark my words. By January and
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: February of next year, we will see the numbers plummet massively.
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: I want to tell you about Patriot Mobile real quick.
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: If you have a cell phone and your cell phone
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: is with Big Mobile, you may not realize until now
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: that you are supporting hardcore liberal causes, candidates and organizations,
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: organizations that pay for abortions. For example, when I found
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: that out, I did not want to be I didn't
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: want any of my dollars going to a company that
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: was going to use my money for things like that. Well,
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: about a decade ago, a group of conservatives founded a
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: company called Patriot Mobile because they want to be on
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: the front lines fighting for our values, for our First
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: and our Second Amendment rights, fighting for the sanctity of life,
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: and standing with our military, our first responders, and our
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: wounded warriors. Well they did that by creating an incredible
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: cell phone company, and you can take a stand for
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: conservative causes by switching your cell phone provider to them.
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: Not only many times you save real money every month,
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: but you also do this They take about five percent
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: of your bill every month and no extra cost to you,
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: and they give it back to conservative causes that fight
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: for what we believe in. So you're making a difference
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: with every phone call, with every text message, and with
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: every bill you pay. You also get the same nationwide
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: coverage as the big providers because they're all now using
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: the same networks in twenty twenty four. It is easy
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: to switch. You can do it over the phone. I
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: have Patriot Mobile. I travel everywhere and have no issues
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: with coverage. Plus they have a coverage guarantee. Now you
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: keep your same cell phone number you have right now
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: you can upgrade to a new phone or keep the
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: one you have, and they have a one hundred percent
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: US space customer service team that helps you switch easily.
• 18:16

• 18:47
  Speaker 2: I want to move to Pennsylvania. And this has become
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: a really big issue, especially on Sunday as this race
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: has tightened, and there are a lot of people that
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: just straight up saying, now at this point, the Democrats
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: are trying to steal an election in Pennsylvania. They're looking
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: at the Democrats trying to violate the rule of law
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: and undermine the electoral process. Is the new accusation because
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: of the ballots they're now allowing to in essence be counted.
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: This seems very confusing, but also the game plan that
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: you would expect from the Democrats right now.
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: Well understand right now that Democrats are actively trying to
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: steal an election in Pennsylvania, Dave McCormick has won that
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: Senate race. He's won. The AP has called the race.
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: Bob Casey, the incumbent Democrat, has lost. Bob Casey doesn't
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: want to concede. Apparently Bob Casey and Chuck Schumer are
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: election deniers. They don't like the results. They brought in
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: a guy named Mark Elias. Mark Elias is the top
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: Democrat litigation attorney for elections in the country. Mark Elias's
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: job is to try to steal elections, to try to
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: try to get illegal votes in, to try to get
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: Democrats to win. No matter matter what, I'm going to
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: do something that I rarely will do on verdict. I'm
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: just going to read from the New York Times. The
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: New York Times is not a paper that I respected.
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: It often is profoundly dishonest. But when the Democrats are
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: too extreme for The New York Times, that tells you something.
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: Here's an article from the New York Times. The headline quote.
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: In Pennsylvania, the election litigation continues with a twist as
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: a Senate recount plays out. At least four counties are
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: ignoring an order from the state Supreme Court that undated
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: or misdated male ballots cannot be counted, and the article
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: begins in an election defined in part by a tsunami
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: of litigation before the polls even opened. Few states saw
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: as much legal haggling over which ballots should count as Pennsylvania.
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: The polls have long since closed, yet a new round
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: of litigation is flooding the recount battle between Senator Bob Casey,
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: a Democrat, and Dave McCormick, his Republican challenger, who currently
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: leads by a n twenty one thousand votes, a margin
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: rarely overtaken by a simple recount. The landscape, however, is
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: different in at least four counties, Bucks, Philadelphia, Center, and Montgomery.
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: Local election officials are acting in open defiance of a
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: ruling from the Pennsylvania Supreme Court that arrived weeks before
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: the election. The court found that male ballots that are
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: missing the date on the outer envelope or that have
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: the wrong date cannot be counted for this election. The
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: Bucks County Election Commission felt differently. Quote it's a pretty
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: stupid thing to not count someone's vote simply because they
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: didn't date an envelope for a ballot, said Robert Harvey, Junior.
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: The chairman of the board and a Democrat who's desperately
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: trying to steal the election. That last part is me editorializing.
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: During a meeting on Tuesday where the board voted two
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: to one to count four hundred and five ballots with
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: date errors on the envelope, he added that election officials
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: know when ballots were printed for voters, making the outer
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: envelope date requirement meaningless. The law needs to be changed,
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: mister Harvey said. The commissioners were advised that they were
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: likely to be sued no matter how they ruled. So
• 22:10
  Speaker 3: we're going to get sued either way. I'd rather be
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: on the side of counting ballots than not counting them,
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: mister Harvey said. So you have four counties that are
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: battling the State Supreme Court that are refusing to follow
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: the State Supreme Court. You've got Bucks, Philadelphia, Montgomery and
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: Center and the commissioners. Lisa Dally, who's one of the
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: Democratic commissioners on the Philadelphia board, said before her vote
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: that she felt a local city court had ruled in
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: the ballots that the ballots should count, and that the
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: state Supreme Court did not reject that decision, and so
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: in an interview, Seth Bluestein, the Republican commissioner on the
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: county commission, reiterated that the State Supreme Court had already
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: settled the issue. Quote, even though the commissioners and the
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: boards of elections have some discretion in how they vote,
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: when you have something as explicit as an order from
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, we need to follow that. And
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: what is amazing if you listen to one of the
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: Democrat members of the Bucks County Board, dian Diane m
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: Elis Marsigalia, here's what Miss Ellis Marsigalia said, she's a
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: Democrat on the Buck Bucks County Board. Quote. I think
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: we all know that precedent by a court doesn't matter
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: anymore in this country. People violate laws any time they want.
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: So for me, if I violate this law, it's because
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: I want a court to pay attention. There's nothing more
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: important than counting votes. So you've got Democrats in Pennsylvania
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: openly defying the law. You've got the state Supreme Court.
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: And by the way, the State Supreme Court or Democrats,
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: the State Supreme Court is issued an order as to
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: what ballots you can legally count and what ballots you can't,
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: and these local Democrat are pissed because under that result,
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: the Republican has won. And so their view is, We're
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: going to keep illegally counting ballots and keep illegally counting
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: ballots until the Democrat wins, and the instant of the
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: Democrat wins, We're done. It is shocking, and it is
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: happening in plain daylight. And mind you, that's not me
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: saying that, that's New York Times.
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: So how do you And this is where people have lost,
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: I think just total faith in the system. If the
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: court has said you can't do this, and they're like,
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: maskert will do it anyway, what is the recourse And
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: is there a real chance they could actually succeed in
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: stealing this election? Because as you said it, and I
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: agree with you, this is active, an active campaign by
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: Democrats to steal an election they know they lost.
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: Well, look, there's litigation, and I can tell you the
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: McCormick campaign that they have hired serious lawyers. They're engaged
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: in litigation, they're fighting back and hopefully the courts will
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: stop this. But I'll tell you what, it's not just
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: the New York Times. Do you know who the Democrats
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: have lost. They've lost the Washington So here's the Washington
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: Post editorial board quote. Democrats thumb their nose at the
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: rule of law in Pennsylvania. Elections need rules, and they
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: must be applied equally and consistently. And this is the
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: Washington Post editorial board, no friend to Republicans. Quote. Before
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: the November fifth election, Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruled that provisional
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: ballots must be signed in two required places and that
• 25:25
  Speaker 3: mail in votes must be dated. Yet, elected Democrat officials
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: in Philadelphia and three other counties buck Centera Montgomery voted
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: this week to defy these and other court decisions at
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: the request of lawyers for Democratic Senator Bob Casey, who
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: trails GOP challenger Dave McCormick by about twenty four thousand votes,
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: with almost all of the roughly seven million ballots cast
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: having been counted. These Democrats' decision will almost certainly be
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: overturned on appeal. But the mere attempt to defy judicial
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: rulings is corrosive to democracy and invites similar behavior in
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: future elections. Now, this is this is the Washington Post
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: who's pointing out And by the way, understand, you've got
• 26:13
  Speaker 3: elected Democrats in Pennsylvania who are voting openly we are
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: going to ignore the Pennsylvania Supreme Court because we want
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: the Democrats to win. And why are they doing this
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: Because Bob Casey, the Democrat, went to them and said,
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: ignore the Supreme Court. It's more important that I the Democrat,
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: win than that you follow the law. And you know
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: what I got to say, if there's a Democrat in
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: Washington who is embarrassed by this shameless undermining of democracy,
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: I don't know who it is. It certainly hasn't been
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: Joe Biden. It certainly hasn't been Kamala Harris, It certainly
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: hasn't been Chuck Schumer. It certainly hasn't been Bob Casey.
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: They're all cheering this on. And these are the same
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: people that you could not shut them up from talking
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: about their love for democracy, except for the fact that
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: the one they're trying to defy the law and undermine democracy.
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: So it's almost the end of the year, and that's
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: when people start doing their New Year's resolutions.
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: And if you're like me, you.
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: Probably thought maybe last year, hey, you're gonna get in shape,
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: you're gonna lose weight.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: Well, the good news is. I actually did it.
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: I lost more than seventy pounds, and I would not
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: have been able to do it without the help from Chalk.

  Speaker 1: Center.
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: Finally, there's one other issue that I want hit and
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: it's an important one and it deals with the lefts
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: increased calls for censorship.
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: Post election.
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: Media elites are fuming over their inability to force feed
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: narratives to the American people. They're also angry that the
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: media seems to be losing their power, the potency, you know,
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: whether it's Saturday Night Live or the Late Shows, or
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: CNN or or MSNBC. Their ratings are down, and so
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: now they're saying, well, we just need to censor everybody
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: and just take it all down from the internet.
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: Anything we don't like.
• 29:32
  Speaker 3: Well, the Democrats, they're not actually looking introspectively and saying, gosh,
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: maybe we were wrong on the issues. Maybe the fact
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: that over seventy percent of Americans thought we were on
• 29:41
  Speaker 3: the wrong track, maybe that's a problem. Maybe we shouldn't
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: have had an open border and let this country be invaded.
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: Maybe we shouldn't have spent money like drunken sailors and
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: caused inflation that that hurt working families across this country.
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: Maybe maybe maybe we shouldn't have waged a war on
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: energy that that hurt everyone who's struggling to make ends meet.
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: Maybe we shouldn't have undermined our friends and allies, and
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: we shouldn't have appeased our enemies. Maybe we shouldn't have
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: given a hundred billion dollars to Iran that funds terrorists
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: in Hamas and Hesbalah and causes a war. Maybe we
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: shouldn't have transformed peace and prosperity into war across the globe.
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: Maybe we shouldn't have turned the other way and in
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: fact secretly cheered on antisemitic protesters that threaten students. Maybe
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: our policies are wrong. That would be a rational and
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: sensible thing for Democrats to do. So they're not doing that. Instead,
• 30:25
  Speaker 3: they're saying, hmm, maybe if people just didn't know what
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: we were doing. Maybe if they couldn't say what we
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: were doing, Maybe if they couldn't criticize what we're doing. Yeah,
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: that's how we'd win. So Jensaki, Joe Biden's former press secretary, Jensaki,
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: went on a podcast and she said this quote, one
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: of the things that's changed ever since I got involved
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: in politics is just the rise of the percentage of
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: people who get their information off of platforms that have
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: no fact checking mechanism and no accountability for having disinformation spread.
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: Quote.
• 30:57
  Speaker 3: Local TV is held to a higher standard of account
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: ability than social media platforms in terms of accurate information
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: on their platforms. That is crazy.
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: Quote.
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: Laws have to change. I don't even know the entire
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: answer to it, but it seems to me to be
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: a core issue. And in particular, she focused on Trump
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: appearing on Joe Rogan, the fact that he could go
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: directly in front of the voters, and here's what she says, quote,
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: I don't think Joe Rogan deserves one hundred percent of
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: the credit for Donald Trump being elected, but it was
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: a misunderstanding of kind of kind of also how people
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: are getting their information, and an underval valuing of some
• 31:38
  Speaker 3: of those platforms that Trump was doing. This is sadly
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: where the Democrats are understand. She's not saying we the Democrats,
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: need to communicate better. She's not saying we the Democrats
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: need to change their policies. She's saying, we need to
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: change the laws to make it illegal for that sob
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: Joe Rogan to say things we don't like. We need
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: to change the laws to make it illegal for anyone
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: to post on X what the actual facts are of
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: what we the Democrats are doing. If we can silence everyone,
• 32:09
  Speaker 3: then we stay in power forever. That is dangerous as hell.
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, listen to Jinsaki when she was doing this, uh
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: this podcast and what she said.
• 32:19
  Speaker 7: And no accountability for having disinformation spread right, And as
• 32:24
  Speaker 7: you know, well, and I mean when I when I
• 32:26
  Speaker 7: got started in democratic politics, you know, most of it
• 32:30
  Speaker 7: was like local TV ads. That was what it was about. Obviously,
• 32:33
  Speaker 7: national TV, local print, those local TV is held to
• 32:37
  Speaker 7: a higher standard of accountability than social media platforms in
• 32:42
  Speaker 7: terms of having accurate information on their platforms. That is
• 32:46
  Speaker 7: crazy and so it is. How how does it change?
• 32:51
  Speaker 4: How is it?
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: How is it?
• 32:52
  Speaker 7: How are people held to account? Laws have to.
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: Change, laws have to change. Center.
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: I guess we're just seen to start locking up anybody
• 32:58
