Democrats' Plan to Weaponize the Government Takes Shape; Ohio in Chaos After Acton's Mom Makes Ad · The Alex Marlow Show

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: It's the Alex Marlowe Show. Alex Marlowe Show. I'm glad
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: you're here. Tons to do today. We'll talk a little
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: national security, foreign policy, particularly with regards to Ukraine and Russia.
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: But before we do, tons of domestic stuff, including more
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: fraud unearthed by Dr. Oz, who really took his job seriously.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: And I got a chance to meet him a couple times,
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: interviewed him a couple times as well. And kind of
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: an unexpected, I'd say, bright spark when it comes to
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: Trump's cabinet and someone who was a TV guy and
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: ended up taking his government job very, very seriously, which
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: is awesome.
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: I like that.
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: And I'll give him some flowers later on in the broadcast.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: But let's take a look at where we're at with
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: the election. And there's a couple of big things that
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: are happening. There are a couple of specific races I
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: want to delve into. But why don't we start with
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: a little bit on whether or not we think the
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: polls are accurate and what we can glean from the
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: election thus far. And let's play this cut of Frank Luntz,
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: who for years was a pollster on Fox and then
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: since has been a pollster elsewhere. And as someone who
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: I think is, you know, leans conservative, but certainly not
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: in the Trump wing of conservatism. So it can be
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: pretty sanguine on some of this stuff. I caught an
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: analysis of him yesterday, and I want to share that
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: with the audience. Play cut seven, please.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: Everyone.
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: Trump voters walked away, refused to participate because they thought
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: that it was against them. They thought that the polls
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: were all biased. And that's what Republicans are being told
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: right now.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: Don't believe the polls.
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: They're not accurate. Well, they may be. We're about to
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: find out. But I'm still skeptical. In the end, Republicans
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: are less likely to participate. They're less likely to believe
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: the polls are happening. But I'm most interested in turnout
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: in the end. And there are ways to measure it.
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: And I'm not convinced that they're doing it, that they're
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: polling how the electorate overall feels and not polling the
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: people actually going to participate. And these are people who
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: are counted in the polls.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: But no, they're not going to vote. This is so
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: important because there could be Republicans who are voting who
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: won't participate in the polls, and there are Democrats who
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: are not voting who are participating in the polls. And
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: a lot of these Democrats also probably intend to vote
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: by mail, but then maybe they won't because they don't
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: trust the post office because Trump runs the post office.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: And then maybe on election day, they'll just decide they're
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: just too busy because they're low engagement, low propensity voters.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: So don't underestimate Democrats' brown game, but they've really done
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: a pretty lame job framing up this election because they've
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: made it about these broader general issues without offering any
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: solutions other than we're not Trump. And I think that
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: the Republican candidates have remained anonymous, aside with the exception
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: of maybe Ken Paxton. But you're kind of looking at
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: a slate of Republicans that seem to be somewhat interchangeable,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: which might be an advantage. And we'll know in a
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: couple of weeks, but it might be an advantage for
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: Republicans because quite often the Democrats are able to villainize
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: the candidates themselves. And with the exception of Paxton in Texas,
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: They haven't really done an effective job of doing that.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: And on the other hand, Republicans have done a pretty
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: good job of making the Democrats seem insane, largely because
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: they often are. So I'm trying to keep an eye
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: out for you guys in terms of what indicators are
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: there with the early turnout. And we got some data
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: from Arizona yesterday, as well as Nevada. And both of
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: them suggest that Republicans with an advantage in mail voting.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: which is just unbelievable because these are places where Democrats
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: need to be leaping out into a lead at this
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: point in the early voting if there's going to be
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: a blue wave.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: It doesn't mean things don't happen. Of course they do.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: It doesn't mean that anyone is prognosticating at a perfect level.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: Of course they're not.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: But overall, you need to be seeing Democrats dominating the
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: early vote for there to be any indication a blue
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: wave is coming. We're not seeing anything close to that,
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: which is why A lot of the buzz, for example,
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: in North Carolina, not so good for Republicans, but you're
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: seeing people like Donald Trump go out and campaign there.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Why is he campaigning there? He's campaigning there because obviously
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: they know something, and they're seeing that these early mail-in voting,
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: the drops that we're getting, suggest that Republicans are turning
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: in ballots at a higher rate than anticipated. So do
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: I think it's going to be close? I think it's
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: going to be a nail-biter. I think it's going to
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: be an absolute nail-biter, and I think the Senate I
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: predicted they're a legal Republican. It's hard to bet against
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: the Democrats in the House, but I got to tell you,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: I have not given up on that at all just
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: because of the nature of how wacky the Democrats are,
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: how they stand for nothing. And these early turnout numbers are,
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't say they're a huge red flag for Democrats,
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: but if I'm a Democrat, you're not happy right now.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: And that gives us more and more time to start
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: contextualizing who are the crazy people who are running in
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: this election. So interesting stuff, but understanding that Democrats the
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: Republicans likely turning in more votes relative to their responses
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: in the polls does add up, considering that the far
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: left was oversampled in polls earlier in the cycle. The
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: two key examples, Francesca Hong in Wisconsin, who was predicted
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: to win by as many as 20 points in the
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: Democrat primary, so the radical candidate, and then lost to
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: the more moderate candidate by less than a percent, but
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: still lost, even the polls showing her up by 20%
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: going into election day. And then the other example, Abdul
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: El-Sayed was up by double digits on his primary challenger
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: and then ended up winning by just a point. So
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: one of those things where the far left is getting
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: oversampled because, remember, and this can sometimes work with us,
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: sometimes work against us in a given election, but an
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: enthusiastic voter counts just as much as someone who waltzes
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: into the polls and votes against the other guy and
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: votes practically– as a practicality because they want to stop
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: something worse than what they already got. The enthusiasm level,
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: it does not make a vote count more or less.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: So that is it, and that's why I'm looking forward
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: to it. And then that allows me to remind you
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: of all the horrible candidates the Democrats are running. And
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: I'm compelled by two major stories politically right now.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: I'm touching these right now.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: The first one is the Ohio governor's race where people–
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: I don't know if it was Vivek Ramaswamy specifically.
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: I would imagine he was aware of it, but people
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: want Ramaswamy to win.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: Unleashing this ad on Amy Acton, who is Ramaswamy's competitor,
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: where they got her mom, trotted out her mom to
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: say that she's a liar and should not be the
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: governor in a vacuum. As I said in the show yesterday,
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: I think this is incredibly compelling. And I think that
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: if you're a person who's not inclined to go online
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: and do your own research, and you just see this
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: ad in a vacuum, that you hear a mother saying
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: her daughter's a liar and shouldn't be the governor, and
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: that is very persuasive. However, if you do a moment
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: of research, you realize that the mom, it seems like
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: a deadbeat mom, was not present in Amy Acton's life.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: The Amy Acton's stepfather, who the mom was married to,
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: was credibly accused of molesting or even raping Amy Acton,
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: and then had to rest, and then the mom stayed
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: with the guy. So the mom is nuts, and we
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: should know that the mom is nuts. Anyone who's going
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: to trash their own daughter in an ad is nuts.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: But that said, it raises valid questions about Amy Acton
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: because maybe she's a victim, and that is very sad.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: And she probably is a victim, and that is very sad.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: But we're talking about running a very important state and
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: a state that's integral to the president's MAGA agenda. And
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: when you start looking into her background, you start seeing
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: stuff like heavy drinking, heavy substance abuse, and the type
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: of person who refuses to debate famously because Ramaswamy, great talker,
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: she doesn't want to debate him. And this is the
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: sort of thing where you stop for a minute and think,
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: do you want to turn Ohio over to someone who,
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: even though the mother's nuts, that it's not coming out
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: of nowhere.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: It's coming from somewhere.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: And I was going through, I was trying to pull
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: for you guys, some Amy Acton clip from the past.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: We get a sense of who she is. I think
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: this sums it up pretty well. This is cut for,
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: this is her back during the COVID days about returning
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: to normalcy.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: Can we play four guys?
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: In this period before we have a vaccine, really keep
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: us all safe, but try to find our way back
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: in some ways to normalcy. So I want to say
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: one more thing. These masks that we are wearing, and
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: I saw them everywhere this weekend, everywhere I went, Ohio,
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: don the mask, don your cape. These masks are actually
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: now being viewed in the studies that are being done
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: as yet another weapon against to get back to normalcy.
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: This is a culture change for us to do this.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: So she's nuts. She says normalcy. Do you know one
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: person in your life who says normalcy? And she speaks
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: as if she's on a Quaalude. That's how she talks.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: And I think a lot of people are going to
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: wake up today because of this ad, as aggressive as
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: it is. It's kind of dirty.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: It's a dirty ad.
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: It is.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: It's dirty.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: But people are going to wake up and they're going
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: to think, well, This is dirty, but she does say normalcy,
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: and she's holding a big cloth mask, which all of
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: you who stuck with me in the show, I was
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: the first and most emphatic to say those masks do
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: nothing because I'm married to a frontline doctor. And the
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: masks they would use were N95s that were custom fitted
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: to their face, and it would take about a half
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: an hour process to get those. And then they would
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: still only regard an exposure as if you're in the room,
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: an enclosed room with someone with the virus for 15
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: minutes or more, even up to 30 minutes for a
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: actual exposure.
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: And she calls it a cape.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: More on this when we come back, but I got
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: to tell you about something you can do in these
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: tumultuous times, especially with the election.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: Look, this is unsolicited advice.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: I'd be very surprised if gold and precious metals don't
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: go up regardless of the election results. And so it
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: could be a buyer's market for gold. And I've got
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: great partners in this space. It's Monetary Gold. Their specialty
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: is they take IRAs and 401ks and they convert it
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: to gold. And this could be a good move for
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: you if you're sitting on a retirement account that you
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: may be established at another job or you've kind of
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: let atrophy, you're not worrying about it and you're not
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: thinking about it. The right move very well could be
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: to get it into gold and precious metals, physical gold.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: It could be a great move for you in a
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: moment where this could be a buyer's market. Monetary gold
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: will give you the information. They're not heavy salespeople. They
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: will inform you before you make any calls. So you
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: owe it to yourself to give them a try. alexlovesgold.com

• 10:37
  Speaker 2: dream it, you can grill it.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: Matt, the MyGrilly guy, invented the most amazing way to
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: grill almost any food you can think of. I love
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: using the MyGrilly to make amazing combinations of food. I'm
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: talking about sausages and peppers, onions and jalapenos, spinach and garlic,

• 10:56
  Speaker 1: and much more. Never worry about food falling through the
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: grill ever again. The MyGrilly is so simple. Put your
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: food in the MyGrilly, put it on the grill, and
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: let it cook.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: It's that easy.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: I love that you can take food that you normally
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: might cook in the kitchen, bring them outside of the
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: grill instead, and when you're finished, cleanup is super easy.

• 11:37
  Speaker 1: some serious mass talk here coming up, which we know
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: did not work.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: I'll explain more in a bit.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: But I'll tell you one thing that everyone dismissed that
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: may have worked for some people and is still available
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: for you today is the Z-Stack, the Dr. Zev Zelenko invention,
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: which got a lot of controversy. The Zelenko protocol was
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: championed by my friend Dennis Prager when he was on
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: in this slot as well. And he faced immense criticism
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: for sharing his approach, but President Trump cited him during
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: a press briefing.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: And I watched the video myself. It was amazing.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: Dr. Zelenko carefully selected the ingredients and doses based on
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: his research. And today his legacy lives on through the
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: Z-Stack formula, which is available to you now at a
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: record low discount.

• 12:58
  Speaker 2: We appreciate that very much.
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: Okay. So I was talking about the mask and Amy Acton,
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: who was on a quaalude talking about how she wants
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: to restore normalcy by forcing people to wear cloth masks,
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: which did nothing. And we knew from the moment they
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: were suggested to us, they said that they did nothing.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: And she's purportedly a pediatrician and whether or not she
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: practiced has kind of been in, been discussed. It sounds
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: like she did to some degree, but, I don't think
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: she was some sort of a real exemplar of her field.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: But then how's it going? How did it work out
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: for you? You've got this background where you're supposed to
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: be a doctor. We have the biggest public health crisis
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: in our last hundred years. And she was a– apparently
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: her expertise was actually in public health. It wasn't really
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: in pediatrician. That's how she's branded herself. But she was
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: really sort of in health leadership and public health. That
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: was a lot of where her expertise was allegedly at.
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: And so she goes on on some sort of a downer,
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: goes on camera, can't pronounce normalcy, and then holds up
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: a cloth mask and says, this is your cape. I mean,
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: that is not a good reflection of how you are
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: as a doctor. So all this stuff is brought up.
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: We get to have a conversation all because of this
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: completely wacky out of left field ad from people who
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: won Vivi Ramaswamy to win. So that's what's so exciting
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: about the show. This is the sport of politics.
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: It just is.
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: It's dirty. It's nasty. And if you're uncomfortable with it,
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: then you need to find another line of work. But
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: there's a lot of hanging in the balance here. And
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: I do wish it wasn't close in Ohio because maybe
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: this stuff wouldn't be necessary if Vivek was more solid
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: on stuff like immigration where he was continually talking about
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: the need to import people from overseas to compete with
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: Americans for work. It seems like the one real departure
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: from MAGA that he's got. I wish that wasn't there.
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: But it is there.
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: And so they've got to do what they can to
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: try to make sure he gets across the finish line
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: because I would be ashamed if this woman was in
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: charge of Ohio.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: And so there you go. We got that.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: The next thing, Alyssa Slotkin is now going on offense
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: after we played the cut. Did we get the cut, guys?
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: Because I wanted to play it again. The one where
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: she says she's a threatening– I don't think we have
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: it anymore. But she was threatening the young people that
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: she wants to intimidate them from working for President Trump
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: because they're going to get investigated again. One of the
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: biggest cuts of the year. We should kind of just have.
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: That on standby, guys. I will be referring to that
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: repeatedly throughout.
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: We do have it.
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: OK, roll it for me, please.
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: So he's accusing you of.
• 15:28
  Speaker 5: Weaponizing government.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: What's your response?
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: This isn't the one.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: Well, unfortunately, it's not my first rodeo. So here's the–
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: I can't do more on Tapper's haircut.
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: It was just all over. That's all I could think
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: about yesterday.
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: But the original one where she says that we want
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: young people to think about if I work for Trump,
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: I could end up getting investigated. That's the one. But
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: you guys heard it. I don't need to play it again.
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: But she is now going all out. Like she is
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: the victim of Trump. I played on yesterday's show. She's
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: pawning this off as she's being attacked.
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: She's a woman.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: Check out this.
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: Cut three.
• 16:03
  Speaker 6: Over the last few days, I've been the target of
• 16:05
  Speaker 6: attacks from D.C. Republicans and right-wing media. It culminated in
• 16:09
  Speaker 6: President Trump just a few hours ago in the Oval
• 16:12
  Speaker 6: Office saying that I should be tried in court. This time,
• 16:16
  Speaker 6: it's because I dared to talk about the corruption coming
• 16:19
  Speaker 6: out of the White House. This shouldn't be complicated. If
• 16:22
  Speaker 6: you break the law or abuse taxpayer dollars, you should
• 16:25
  Speaker 6: be held accountable. So I know from experience, when it
• 16:28
  Speaker 6: comes to weaponizing the government, the president says what he
• 16:31
  Speaker 6: means and he means what he says. Therefore, I'm prepared
• 16:36
  Speaker 6: for his handpicked attorney general to salute this latest call
• 16:39
  Speaker 6: to investigate me and do the president's bidding. So if
• 16:42
  Speaker 6: the president wants to investigate and arrest me, and even worse,
• 16:46
  Speaker 6: as so many authoritarian leaders do with their political adversaries.
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: He's just an authoritarian. He's a bad guy. There's no accountability.
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: There's no mea culpa. There's no– yeah, I probably shouldn't
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: have said out loud that we're going to weaponize the
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: government against Trump supporters. That was probably a mistake. No
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: humility at all. You just have to soldier through it,
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: fight on, ram your head into the wall. Very odd
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: that we're in this strange political moment. More on this
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: when we return. Who answers America's call for more energy?
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: People do.
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: Chevron is helping fuel national energy security. Their U.S. production
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: has increased by nearly 60% in the past three years.
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: And with plans to invest over $ 10 billion in U.S.
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: energy projects in 2026, they're helping boost economies, create better jobs,

• 17:57
  Speaker 6: Over the last few days, I've been the target of
• 17:59
  Speaker 6: attacks from D.C. Republicans and right-wing media. It culminated in
• 18:04
  Speaker 6: President Trump just a few hours ago in the Oval
• 18:06
  Speaker 6: Office saying that I should be tried in court. This time,
• 18:10
  Speaker 6: it's because I dared to talk about the corruption coming
• 18:13
  Speaker 6: out of the White House. This shouldn't be complicated. If
• 18:16
  Speaker 6: you break the law or abuse taxpayer dollars, you should
• 18:19
  Speaker 6: be held accountable.
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: She's a real victim. She's been attacked, Alyssa Slotkin. Remember,
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: she was the one who told the active-duty military to
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: defy the commander-in-chief, and now she's out there saying that
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: if you want to work for President Trump, we're going
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: to investigate you, so don't take a job for him.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: It's just– this is treasonous.
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: It's treasonous.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: So I don't understand why traitors like this– why the
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: law shouldn't be able to step in at some point.
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: And she has to.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: Keep hammering and hammering and hammering. They act like she's
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: some sort of a moderate also. It's hyper-aggressive.
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: And she's such a victim, too. Oh, what a victim.
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: They get to the U.S. Senate only to complain about
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: the bad orange man nonstop. She got attacked because she
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: is threatening people who don't yet work for the president.
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: That's why she got attacked.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: It wasn't that she was standing up to corruption. She
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: was announcing she would be corrupt.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: Do we not see this?
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: Again, guys, I wrote an entire book trying to prove
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: the point that she just said flat out. That's the
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: use of what the Democrats use the Department of Justice,
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: what they use their subpoena power in the Congress. They
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: use it to try to harass their political opponents. That's
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: the point of breaking the law. That's what it is.
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: And they're going to continue to do this. They've already
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: announced they're going to continue to do this. This is
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: Karish Wisher, who is a left-wing podcaster who is embedded
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: with the Democrats, particularly the Silicon Valley Democrats, one of
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: their favorite mouthpieces. And let's play cut six.
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: Check this out.
• 19:41
  Speaker 7: Under Kamala Harris, he might be in jail right now, right?
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: He is correct.
• 19:45
  Speaker 7: And that's not because she's some avenging fury. It's because
• 19:49
  Speaker 7: there's a lot. of questions around different companies of his.
• 19:52
  Speaker 7: If Donald Trump loses the House and the Senate, I
• 19:55
  Speaker 7: would worry. I'd be worried if I were him, you know,
• 19:58
  Speaker 7: no matter how rich he is. So they're going to
• 20:00
  Speaker 7: start investigating again. You think he's not on the list?
• 20:02
  Speaker 7: He's at the top of that list. Donald Trump obviously
• 20:04
  Speaker 7: is at the top and his family. But Elon Musk
• 20:07
  Speaker 7: is right up there for that. And you have to
• 20:10
  Speaker 7: he knows what's coming. Like he's not stupid. Like of
• 20:13
  Speaker 7: all the many things you can say about him is he,
• 20:17
  Speaker 7: he has a very big sense of fate. And I
• 20:20
  Speaker 7: think it's coming for him.
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: Just, it's so interesting. That's a popular, she, her cadence
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: is like, why is she so popular? It's just, you
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: just say, but anyway, the point is aside from the delivery,
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: she's announcing that the Democrats are gonna investigate Musk.
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: That's what's going to go on.
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: Why?
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: Because he's the number one donor in this election cycle
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: to Republicans, which is great for us, but just know,
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: That the left never has problems with money and politics
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: from Silicon Valley when they're only supporting– when they're only
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: supporting Democrats, which has been the case for so long.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: So now that Musk is out there supporting Republicans, now
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: all of a sudden we're going to investigate him. They're
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: going to punish you with the law because you dare
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: to donate and be a part of the political process.
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: And they're such hypocrites on this. I wonder if the
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: people can see through this. This is James Tallarico talking
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: about Musk.
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: Cut five, please.
• 21:09
  Speaker 8: Elon Musk is trying to buy this Senate seat in Texas.
• 21:14
  Speaker 8: We just found out that he is almost single-handedly bankrolling
• 21:19
  Speaker 8: this effort to install Ken Paxton in the U.S. Senate
• 21:23
  Speaker 8: and defeat this movement we've built in our state. Ken
• 21:26
  Speaker 8: Paxton is funded by one dude. Elon Musk wants our land.
• 21:33
  Speaker 8: He wants our water. He wants his very own personal
• 21:38
  Speaker 8: United States senator. He is trying to buy Texas.
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: It's just so gross. It's gross because he purports to
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: be a Christian. He just lies through his teeth the
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: whole time. He's so blasphemous. And it's just nonstop with
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: the blasphemies. And it's his number one donor. This is
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: the most important point we can make. It's a guy
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: named Reid Hoffman. Reid Hoffman has been a focal point
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: of my research. And I think he appears in all
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: three of my books. most recently in breaking the law
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: because he was the one who bankrolled the E.G.
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: Carroll case.
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: But even more relevant to the broader public is he's
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: basically the number one guy from the Epstein files. So
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: all the people who say release the files, release the files,
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: he's the guy who's in it the most frequently. He's
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: a very gross individual. He's got deep ties to China.
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: He's got deep ties to Joe Biden, bestie friends with
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: Joe Biden. Part of the reason why Biden's Justice Department
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: was so weaponized against President Trump was because of Reid Hoffman.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: And that is the number one donor to the James
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: Talafrico campaign. So this is the whole thing with these
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: political things. If there's no one available to explain to
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: these clapping seals in the audience that, hey, the number
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: one guy in the Epstein file is the main funder
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: of the Tallarico campaign. So many pervs on the left,
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: Tallarico included. Let's not forget this one, guys. I want
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: you to never forget this. Cut nine, please. Something that
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: you love that's not family or friends.
• 23:01
  Speaker 8: I loved I'm just saying this because it's on my mind.
• 23:04
  Speaker 8: The trans children who showed up yesterday at the state
• 23:08
  Speaker 8: capitol to advocate for their humanity, they shouldn't have to,
• 23:12
  Speaker 8: but it was an inspiration to watch.
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: It's a musk, and a musk is a mixed bag
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: for me. Anyone who's been with me for a while
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: knows that I feel that way. But overall, the guy
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: is a unique one-out-of-one entrepreneur who's bringing his giant businesses
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: to Texas. And all of the revenue, all the growth,
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: all the jobs are going to come with that. And
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: so Texas is going to– are they going to think
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: Musk is the bad guy or they think the guy
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: who loves transing the kids and thinks God is non-binary
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: and has a favorite drag queen? Is that who they're
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: going to go for? I refuse to believe it that
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: Texas is going to go for Califrico, but we'll see.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: We'll see. We'll know very, very soon. Other races that
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: are interesting, a nice one from the Wall Street Journal,
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: which normally when I'm bringing up the Wall Street Journal,
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: I'm doing it with a– so you got to try
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: to read between the lines of some of this stuff.
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: But it seems like a pretty clean bust that Democrat
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: Senate nominee Paula Poundstone, a.k.a.
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: Peggy Flanagan.
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: It's just like over and over again, the shoulder pad jackets.
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: It's just such a dated look.
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: Every photo of her, she gets a shoulder pad of jackets.
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: But anyway, she inflated her academic record in saying that
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: she graduated Phi Beta Kappa. And she said this for
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: a very long time, and apparently she didn't. And the–
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: This is awesome from the piece. The state's lieutenant governor
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: and Democratic U.S. Senate nominee, Flanagan, was a Minnesota House
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: member when she said college teaching diversity transformed her from
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: a high school graduate with a 1.75 GPA to a University.
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: Of Minnesota honor student.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: But the Wall Street Journal asked about to provide information
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: proving her membership to the nation's most exclusive honor society,
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: and she couldn't do it. She acknowledged, in fact, She
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: never belonged to the group. So she couldn't do it
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: because it never happened. So nice bust there by the
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: Wall Street Journal. But will anyone care? Because again, that's
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: the type of thing that got Katie Zachariah fired from
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: being press secretary when it was totally irrelevant to her
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: job as press secretary if she was a practicing lawyer.
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: But her misrepresenting it, that was enough. So this keeps
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: going on.
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: We get a.
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: Really unbelievable story that was– taking place by Axios, where
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: Axios did a fact– this is a Beltway-centric political news
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: outlet that you're probably aware of. And they did a
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: fact check saying that this Washington County chair candidate, someone
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: named Nafisa Fai, was posing or did a press conference
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: in front of an upside-down American flag. She's got a
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: hijab on while she's doing this. So not someone who's
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: going to agree with us politically. And so they did
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: a fact check suggesting that it was a rumor or
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: it was false that she had done the event. She
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: had done the event with the upside down American flag
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: in the background. So this is a Somali and she's
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: wearing a hijab. And the Somali wearing the hijab provided,
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: I'm guessing, a deepfake image of to Axios to suggest
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: that the flag was right side up and the image
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: was a deep fake.
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: It was false.
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: And Axios put out a fact check suggesting that all
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: the reports that you were seeing online that she was
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: in front of an upside down American flag, a distress signal,
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: if there ever was one, for the country, suggesting that
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: she doesn't like this country.
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: This country is a bad place. That's the point of it.
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: They fell for the campaign sending them a deep fake
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: and did a whole fact check on it, which they
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: had to retract. So I think that's got to be
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: a first, right? Have we ever seen this line cross
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: in American politics where a hijab-wearing Somali is now using
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: deepfake images to dupe American media? And could this ever
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: happen the other direction? One more Tallarico that I want
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: to play that I was sitting on. Let's play what
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: his plans are for the Supreme Court, just to remind
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: you that there are no moderates on the Democrat side.
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: Cut eight.
• 27:07
  Speaker 6: If you win this, should our voters expect you to
• 27:10
  Speaker 6: vote for or against adding Supreme Court justices more than nine?
• 27:14
  Speaker 8: Well, I think the Supreme Court needs to be overhauled.
• 27:17
  Speaker 8: We have seen that corruption has infected the judicial branch
• 27:20
  Speaker 8: just as it's infected the legislative and executive branches. And
• 27:24
  Speaker 8: so you're going to expect that I will vote for
• 27:26
  Speaker 8: overhauls to the Supreme Court. That'll include binding codes of
• 27:29
  Speaker 8: conduct for our justices. It'll include term limits. And I'm
• 27:33
  Speaker 8: open to a discussion about expanding the number of justices.
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: All right, so that's what you've got to say to
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: keep the Democrat donors happy. So if anyone thinks he's
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: pure and you don't, then that's what's got to keep
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: the donors– that's what is going to be necessary to
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: keep the donors happy. And could this lead to a
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: potential downfall for the Democrats? So let's check in with
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: Harry Enten from CNN. Your pollster does a very good
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: job and generally is pretty– is about as neutral as
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: it gets.
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: Play cut 13, please, gentlemen.
• 27:59
  Speaker 9: There is a reason why you should, in fact, be
• 28:02
  Speaker 9: nervous if you're a Democrat and perhaps be, you know,
• 28:04
  Speaker 9: there's some reason for a little excitement if you're a Republican.
• 28:07
  Speaker 9: GOP outperformed the final Senate poll averages. I want you
• 28:10
  Speaker 9: to look by the state's prior presidential result. Ergo, blue states,
• 28:14
  Speaker 9: the states that Trump lost, and then the red states
• 28:16
  Speaker 9: that Trump won.
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: Look at this.
• 28:18
  Speaker 10: The GOP is far more likely to outperform their final
• 28:22
  Speaker 10: Senate poll averages by 4.1 points in the states that
• 28:25
  Speaker 10: Trump won. And we know in this election cycle, Kate,
• 28:29
  Speaker 10: that the Democrats need to win in a lot of
• 28:32
  Speaker 10: Trump states in order to win control of the Senate.
• 28:34
  Speaker 10: And not just Trump states, but states that Trump won
• 28:37
  Speaker 10: by double digits back in 2024.
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: Very good. So it's just more data to prove what
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: all the vibes are. The vibes are suggesting one thing,
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: something clear, which is that the far left is getting
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: oversampled in the polls thus far this election cycle.
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: And it's very hard to decode the polls.
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: This is a ritual every two years that I have
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: to go through as editor of a major website because
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: so often the polls look wrong and then they're right.
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: So often they look right and then they're wrong. What
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: direction is it going to be? Pretty consistently from this
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: election cycle, the polls have been showing, have been undersampling
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: moderate Republican voters. And so let's see if that's how
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: it plays out. With the early voting coming in, it
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: does feel like we're heading in that direction.
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: And why?
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: Because The Democrats are these freak show candidates, and they're
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: also fraudsters. I'll talk about some of the fraud that Dr.
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: Oz has been uncovering on the other side of the break.
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: Before we do, I got one more to tell Rico.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: There's no reason not to share this with you guys.
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: Brandon Gill breaking him down. We love Brandon Gill on
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: the show.
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: Let's play 15, gentlemen.
• 29:37
  Speaker 5: This is a guy who will take and has taken.
• 29:40
  Speaker 5: your most cherished traditions, your most cherished beliefs, your love
• 29:44
  Speaker 5: for Friday night football, small town traditions, your faith, and
• 29:48
  Speaker 5: wears them like a skin suit and then promotes policies
• 29:51
  Speaker 5: that undermine everything that you know and love and promotes
• 29:54
  Speaker 5: things that will fundamentally and in a very tangible way
• 29:59
  Speaker 5: make your life worse, whether it's flooding American communities with
• 30:03
  Speaker 5: illegal aliens or supporting a party who wants to give
• 30:05
  Speaker 5: welfare to illegal aliens. or promoting ideas about how the
• 30:10
  Speaker 5: Bible is pro-abortion or God is non-binary. I mean, these
• 30:14
  Speaker 5: are bizarre things. I think most Texans see what James Tallarico,
• 30:18
  Speaker 5: how he's trying to portray himself, and what he actually
• 30:22
  Speaker 5: believes and realizes. These are two very different Tallaricos, and
• 30:25
  Speaker 5: they're very off-put by it.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: Very good stuff from the Texan, Brandon Gill. All right,
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: let me tell you about something that I've been doing
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: to help myself, and now there's an opportunity for you
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: to get it at the cheapest rate since they've been
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: a part of my show. I'm talking about, of course,
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: the SuperPOM 1050 and all the great products from SunPower
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: LED because now you can use eligible HSA and FSA
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: funds towards any device. I use a SuperPOM 1050. It
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: heats up really quick, cools down really quick. It's got
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: this patented therapy where the light has a really evenly–
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: distributes for deeper light penetration. It helps me with recovery
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: from athletics and some minor sports injuries because it's anti-inflammatory.
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: Those are the properties I like, but it also has
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: a lot of other practical usages for people for joint pain,
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: muscle aches, gout, et cetera. It's got the wall of
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: light technology. That's the technology I'm talking about here. And
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: it really, it's very effective for me. And I think
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: you guys owe it to yourself to give it a try.
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: They've also got the helmet, might help with sleep issues, migraines.
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: Give it a shot, especially with those eligible HSA or
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: FSA funds. Code Marlowe gets your 10% off at sunpowerled.com.
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: That's sunpowerled.com. Code Marlowe for 10%.
• 31:38
  Speaker 9: All right.
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: Shout out to the team. Greg Ebbin, Sean McConnell, Roger
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: Wicker Jr., Rick Locke, Matt Sibyl, Ricky Lopez, Misty Callahan,
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: John Cascio, Daniel West. All do a nice job on
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: the show. Who you guys got for the world series?
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: I guess I'm, I think the Brewers will win as
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: a Dodger fan and watching us getting completely owned by them.
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: But it's the, I'm.
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: More interested to see, are we going to see some
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: records for home run trots? Junior Caminero's 38.66 second home
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: run trot, the second slowest in the stat cast era
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: behind Junior Caminero, who had the record from earlier this year.
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: So it's the, the people acting like this is just a,
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: you guys have seen the home run trots, right? It's the,
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: It's completely foreign to me as someone who played baseball
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: religiously at a different era in time. This is a
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: true story. When I was playing for Harvard-Westlake, one of
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: the best baseball programs in the country, I had a
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: home run in a game during varsity. And I did
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: too long of a fist pump coming around first base.
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: And I was the subject of a brutal tongue lashing
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: for too long of a fist pump. And now they're
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: doing the genuflecting. They're doing the sign of the cross.
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: They're shooting jump shots. They're doing juke moves. He started
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: running backwards. You see he was running backwards for a time.
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: I know they're competing now with like the Savannah Bananas
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: and stuff where they're literally breaking into show tunes in
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: the middle of the ball game and they're playing on stilts.
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: And it's a different era, but there's way too much
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: for me. And I'm pro fun. So you guys know
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: I'm pro fun. So if we're taking 40 seconds to
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: run around the bases, to act like you've never hit
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: a home run in your life every time, every time
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: you hit a home run, You act like it's a surprise.
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: It reminds me of that old Dana Carvey comedy bit
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: where he'd make fun of rock stars who would change
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: chords and act like they were doing a magic trick.
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: That's what they're doing now. It's not just a home run.
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: They're acting like they did some sort of a magic
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: trick in Vegas. But, you know, whatever. Whatever keeps people entertained.
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: Chopping broccoli. That's right. That's right. It's a great stand-up bit.
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: Other stuff that's cooking that I want to get to.
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: I think I'll save some of the Russia-Ukraine stuff. Trump
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: wants peace. Zelensky is unreasonable to deal with. He said
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: basically he'll knock it off now so long as Russia
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: gets no new territory. That's never going to work. But
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: I'll save some of that for tomorrow. Trump has got
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: new data center messaging, which is great but very late
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: in the game. His new messaging now is centering around
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: financial deals for communities, and they want the commitments to
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: the communities– that data centers are not going to raise
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: the prices of the people who are in the communities.
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: And if you're going to build the data center, then
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: you've got to be a good partner with the people
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: who are there. You've got to make it worth their while.
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: This is all stuff I was saying on the show
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: months ago, and I do wish that this messaging got
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: back to the people who are making these calls because
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: some of my favorite people in the administration were saying
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: that if you don't like data centers, you're a Chinese plant.
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: And the Democrats are just running the table on this issue.
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: They're running in a very hard anti-data center platform. And
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: I met with a Republican grassroots group yesterday, and the
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: group was talking about how they hate data centers and
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: they don't want a data center in their town. So
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: this is a big mistake by the Republicans to not
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: get the messaging dialed on this. It sounds like Trump
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: is making, he's pivoted, but making sure the data center
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: provide their own electricity, not provide cost addition for the
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: public is a good thing. So better late than never
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: in that regard. I've been trying to tap Dr. Oz,
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: who's come up with a bunch of fraud that he
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: is in Minnesota and in California that he's cracking down
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: on with Medicaid. And he's freezing all sorts of different
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: funds until things get straightened out. And now he's at
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: a New York City senior daycare center or a daycare
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: center for seniors. And he busted them with fraud and
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: he got the cameras out. I think he teamed with
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: Fox on this, but it's still pretty clever. Can we
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: really cut 12, please, gentlemen?
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: This is a letter to you from the U.S.
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: Government that tells you that the way that the operations
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: are occurring here is worrisome.
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: The bills are much higher than they should be. The
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: building is for more people.
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: It doesn't look very crowded here.
• 36:00
  Speaker 8: No, it's still very crowded.
• 36:04
  Speaker 10: Ma'am, this is fraud.
• 36:06
  Speaker 6: I know, sir. Fraud.
• 36:08
  Speaker 8: You know, some people do that.
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: It's your job to stop this.
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: This is stealing from the American taxpayer.
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: This is stealing, like, money out of our pockets.
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: It is awesome. He's just a good TV guy because,
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: first of all, looks sharp, acts tough, and he's smart
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: to get the cameras going. That was very smart. But
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: he's saying that 80-plus facilities now in New York are
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: defrauding the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid. And he's going
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: to start cracking down on it. And again, making it
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: so that there's content for people like me to play
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: is really great. And he also revealed that Minnesota mothers
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: are being bribed for $ 1, 500 per child to falsely claim
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: their kid is autism. That's fresh that he's got. And again,
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: freezing those $ 1. 2 billion heading to California. This is all
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: positive stuff. And this is the type of thing that
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: I would like to see more front and center in
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: the remaining weeks or week and a half really until
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: the election because better messaging here and giving some real
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: context of the Democrats were the people who put all
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: this fraud into place.
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: They enabled it. They love it. And they would love
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: for it to come back, continue, and even expand.
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: All right, that's today's show. Go in peace, love, and
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: serve the Lord. Thanks for listening and watching. See you tomorrow.
