- 0:52Speaker 1: for the longest time, sleep was actually my biggest struggle
- 0:56Speaker 1: because I'd wake up with back pain. I was like,
- 0:58Speaker 1: can I get a good night's sleep? What is going
- 1:00Speaker 1: on here? I thought, I went to the mattress stores
- 1:02Speaker 1: and I was like, can I find a good mattress here?
- 1:04Speaker 1: And they were trying to, yeah, yeah, this is the
- 1:05Speaker 1: one for you. It wasn't the one for me. It
- 1:07Speaker 1: wasn't the one for me. Helix was the one for me.

- 2:28Speaker 1: what a night. What an unbelievable night. Should we start
- 2:31Speaker 1: with Thomas Massey? I think we should probably start with
- 2:33Speaker 1: Thomas Massey. Congressman Thomas Massey is now out of a job.
- 2:37Speaker 1: Navy SEAL Ed Galrain winning the gig. Thomas Massey will
- 2:41Speaker 1: be finishing out his time in Congress going into November. January.
- 2:45Speaker 1: Galrain won it by a wide margin with the backing
- 2:48Speaker 1: of President Trump and, importantly, with the backing of President
- 2:52Speaker 1: Trump's voters in that Kentucky district. Massey's gone. You know,
- 2:56Speaker 1: Massey is an interesting character. You know, over time, you may,
- 3:00Speaker 1: like me, have been attracted in some ways to Thomas
- 3:03Speaker 1: Massey's politics. Massey's politics include getting control of the national debt.
- 3:07Speaker 1: The guy wears a debt clock on his pocket all
- 3:10Speaker 1: the time to indicate just how out of control the
- 3:12Speaker 1: spending in Washington has become. I like that a lot.
- 3:16Speaker 1: You know, Thomas Massey lives off the grid. He powers
- 3:19Speaker 1: his house with, what does he got, like the solar
- 3:21Speaker 1: banks and all these things. He's got, he's very, he's
- 3:23Speaker 1: an interesting kind of MIT-trained engineer dude. That's all cool.
- 3:27Speaker 1: I like that. Fascinating stuff. What I don't like, though,
- 3:31Speaker 1: is the fact that Thomas Massey was breathing life into
- 3:34Speaker 1: Blue and None. You know about Blue and None? That
- 3:38Speaker 1: deranged left-wing conspiracy operation that mostly exists on blue ski,
- 3:43Speaker 1: Blue Anon. Yeah, and where they allege that President Trump
- 3:46Speaker 1: is guilty of all sorts of horrific crimes against children,
- 3:50Speaker 1: the kinds of crimes that actually are sort of the
- 3:53Speaker 1: dominion of Democrats, aren't they? It's just awful. It's just
- 3:57Speaker 1: awful what the left has been saying about the president.
- 4:01Speaker 1: And it has been, you know, remember this Jeffrey Epstein saga,
- 4:04Speaker 1: as we've talked about it through the years, This has
- 4:07Speaker 1: been a source of concern on the American right because
- 4:10Speaker 1: we saw it as a skeleton key for the corruption
- 4:13Speaker 1: of the establishment that we wanted to take down. We
- 4:16Speaker 1: were tired of a corrupt. demonic establishment. And so that's
- 4:19Speaker 1: why the right was so concerned about the Jeffrey Epstein
- 4:22Speaker 1: saga and has continued to be to this very day.
- 4:25Speaker 1: The left was a Johnny come lately to that story
- 4:28Speaker 1: because once they realized that it was reaching a critical mass,
- 4:30Speaker 1: exposing people that were massive donors in their party or
- 4:34Speaker 1: president or presidents or any of the people that are
- 4:37Speaker 1: associated with the left, They decided to do what they
- 4:39Speaker 1: always do, which is turn it into another game of projection,
- 4:42Speaker 1: trying to take their own sins and project them onto
- 4:45Speaker 1: the right. Never mind the fact that Donald Trump has
- 4:48Speaker 1: been a hero in the story of the Epstein saga,
- 4:50Speaker 1: the guy who is helping investigators and cops dig into
- 4:55Speaker 1: the crimes of Jeffrey Epstein. Again, by the admission of
- 5:00Speaker 1: all these authorities coming out through the years and saying, yeah,
- 5:02Speaker 1: Donald Trump was the one guy who was really helpful
- 5:05Speaker 1: to us. Donald Trump kicking Epstein out of Mar-a-Lago for
- 5:09Speaker 1: being a pervert. Every one of these things has redounded
- 5:13Speaker 1: to President Trump's credibility on this, to his integrity on
- 5:19Speaker 1: this story. And yet, of course, the left is trying
- 5:22Speaker 1: to project their sins onto him. That's been the saga.
- 5:25Speaker 1: So remember, it was last fall that Thomas Massey did
- 5:29Speaker 1: this big press conference where he was saying, we got
- 5:32Speaker 1: to release the Epstein files. We got to release the
- 5:34Speaker 1: Epstein files, which of course, President Trump did eventually sign
- 5:37Speaker 1: a law to do that very thing. He said, just
- 5:40Speaker 1: get it all out there. This nonsense has become such
- 5:43Speaker 1: a ridiculous distraction. We have so many things we have
- 5:45Speaker 1: to do for the country. But Massey kept pressing on
- 5:49Speaker 1: this thing. And he does this press conference and he
- 5:51Speaker 1: waltzes outside for the presser And while he's out there,
- 5:55Speaker 1: he's standing in front of signs, blue anon signs, that
- 5:59Speaker 1: accuse President Trump of being a pedophile. That's what Thomas
- 6:03Speaker 1: Massey was doing. Do you remember this? Here's the imagery.
- 6:08Speaker 1: Here's Massey. Marjorie Taylor Greene is standing to his side here,
- 6:12Speaker 1: concealed by my face on rumble.com slash Vince here. But
- 6:15Speaker 1: here's Thomas Massey right behind him. You see the signs
- 6:17Speaker 1: that are in the shot. Now, this is if you're
- 6:19Speaker 1: an American politician, you're very aware of what your camera
- 6:23Speaker 1: shot looks like, because this is the image that the
- 6:25Speaker 1: world's going to see. And and it might as well
- 6:29Speaker 1: have come out of Thomas Massey's mouth, because look right here,
- 6:32Speaker 1: right over his right shoulder. Release the Epstein files. Hashtag
- 6:35Speaker 1: pedo 47. This is what Massey was doing. He was
- 6:39Speaker 1: legitimizing Blue Anon.
- 6:41Speaker 2: Here we go.
- 6:42Speaker 1: Pedophile of the United States with a picture of President
- 6:46Speaker 1: Trump holding a little child's hand with balloons that say, help, help.
- 6:54Speaker 1: You see this garbage? This is what Massey was legitimizing.
- 6:59Speaker 1: It was insanity. And so whatever... Whatever decency Thomas Massey
- 7:05Speaker 1: has demonstrated in the past, particularly with regards to things
- 7:08Speaker 1: like the national debt, I agree with him completely. I
- 7:11Speaker 1: told Rand Paul this last year, too, when Rand Paul
- 7:13Speaker 1: was against the big, beautiful bill, when he was fighting
- 7:16Speaker 1: back against it. I was like, Senator Paul. Remember, we
- 7:18Speaker 1: had him on the show. And I talked to him.
- 7:20Speaker 1: I was like, Senator Paul, we need to secure our border.
- 7:22Speaker 1: I'm with you on the debt, brother. I want to
- 7:24Speaker 1: restrain the government spending so much. And I'm thankful that
- 7:26Speaker 1: President Trump has fired 10 percent of the federal workforce
- 7:28Speaker 1: from They're catching all this fraud. I love all that.
- 7:31Speaker 1: And I will keep hammering that issue, the get control
- 7:34Speaker 1: of the national debt. No question about it. I don't
- 7:36Speaker 1: want to leave my child, God willing, my grandchildren. I
- 7:40Speaker 1: don't want to leave them with some massive debt burden.
- 7:42Speaker 1: We got to get this under control so we can
- 7:44Speaker 1: have a country in the future. Totally agree. But when
- 7:47Speaker 1: you start doing this garbage, standing in front of Trump's
- 7:50Speaker 1: pedophile signs, it's time to go. It's time to get
- 7:54Speaker 1: somebody in there. who's going to be more serious and
- 7:57Speaker 1: not breathing life into the insanity that's led to now, what,
- 7:59Speaker 1: multiple assassination attempts against the president of the United States?
- 8:03Speaker 1: It's enough. It's enough. And the voters in Kentucky's 4th
- 8:06Speaker 1: District yesterday said, it's enough. And they got rid of
- 8:09Speaker 1: Thomas Massey. So that's the big news overnight. That's kind
- 8:14Speaker 1: of the big story that most of the outlets have
- 8:16Speaker 1: been focusing on overnight. But Thomas Massey out. And again,
- 8:20Speaker 1: I've said it before. This is not just about the
- 8:23Speaker 1: power of President Trump. Importantly, it's about the power of you.
- 8:26Speaker 1: It's about the power of the Trump voters, the power
- 8:28Speaker 1: of the normal American who's tired of the crap, who
- 8:32Speaker 1: just wants a better country, and who just wants fighters
- 8:34Speaker 1: to help make that happen. So Massey's out, and Ed
- 8:39Speaker 1: Gawrain is in, and now he's got an obligation to
- 8:42Speaker 1: do that job very well. Of course, he's won the primary.
- 8:45Speaker 1: He's got to go on to win the general election,
- 8:47Speaker 1: but he's expected to rather easily. So that's good. President
- 8:51Speaker 1: Trump did have a big night. President Trump and his
- 8:53Speaker 1: base did have a big night last night as 30,
- 8:56Speaker 1: nearly 30 races that President Trump had endorsed and were
- 9:01Speaker 1: either outright victories or going to runoffs now where the
- 9:04Speaker 1: Trump endorsed candidate is the leader in the race. That's
- 9:11Speaker 1: a very big deal. For instance, also in Kentucky, President
- 9:15Speaker 1: Trump's pick to replace Mitch McConnell, Andy Barr, Had a
- 9:19Speaker 1: huge night last night and easily winning in that fight
- 9:23Speaker 1: against Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron. Andy Barr gets 62
- 9:29Speaker 1: percent of the vote. Daniel Cameron gets 29 percent of
- 9:33Speaker 1: the vote in that contest. Now, for those of you
- 9:36Speaker 1: who've been paying attention to that race for a while,
- 9:38Speaker 1: you know there was a third candidate in the race
- 9:41Speaker 1: by the name of Nate Morris. that recently dropped out
- 9:45Speaker 1: of the race at the request of the president of
- 9:47Speaker 1: the United States. The president said, would you basically clear
- 9:51Speaker 1: the deck here? Let's get Andy Barr through. And Nate
- 9:54Speaker 1: Morris is a guy who was endorsed. He was the
- 9:58Speaker 1: final endorsement of Charlie Kirk. And for good reason, the
- 10:02Speaker 1: guy was on pace to be a total breath of
- 10:05Speaker 1: fresh air. to replace Mitch McConnell. And we needed a
- 10:10Speaker 1: radical change. We need a radical better change from the
- 10:14Speaker 1: corruption and establishment Mitch McConnell. The guy can barely think
- 10:17Speaker 1: right now, but I just mean in terms of his politics,
- 10:19Speaker 1: just not serving the American people well at all. And
- 10:22Speaker 1: so Nate Morris was running for the gig. President Trump
- 10:25Speaker 1: asked him to step out. He's going to get a
- 10:26Speaker 1: job as an ambassador in the Trump administration. Nate did that,
- 10:31Speaker 1: And then he went on to endorse Andy Barr. And
- 10:34Speaker 1: here's what Nate had to say about the guy who
- 10:37Speaker 1: just won this race yesterday against Daniel Cameron. Take a listen.
- 10:42Speaker 2: Hey, it's Nate Morris.
- 10:43Speaker 3: Before Election Day, I wanted to send a message to
- 10:46Speaker 3: all my friends and supporters. We are quickly approaching one
- 10:49Speaker 3: of the most important elections in Kentucky history. We need
- 10:52Speaker 3: Republicans who are going to take on the radical left,
- 10:55Speaker 3: protect Kentucky jobs, and most importantly, remember that this is
- 10:59Speaker 3: Donald Trump's Republican Party. And I'm certain that Andy Barr
- 11:02Speaker 3: will do that. That's why President Trump has endorsed him.
- 11:06Speaker 3: And that's why I'm asking you to go vote for
- 11:08Speaker 3: him as well. I've known Andy for over 20 years.
- 11:11Speaker 3: We have both fought for Kentucky values and for President
- 11:14Speaker 3: Trump's agenda. I'm asking you to join me and President
- 11:18Speaker 3: Trump in supporting Andy Barr on Tuesday, May 19th. I
- 11:22Speaker 3: need you to bring your friends, bring your family. Get
- 11:25Speaker 3: out and let's go vote.
- 11:26Speaker 1: All right. So big endorsement from Nate Morris. And it
- 11:29Speaker 1: all comes to pass. The biggest endorsement, of course, from
- 11:32Speaker 1: President Trump as he gets Andy Barth through. So that
- 11:36Speaker 1: if God willing, that bodes very well for the future
- 11:40Speaker 1: of that representation from Kentucky. Obviously, when Nate was running,
- 11:44Speaker 1: he was making a big deal that both of these
- 11:46Speaker 1: guys at times in their careers had worked for Mitch McConnell.
- 11:50Speaker 1: So they had some relationship. But Daniel Cameron was widely
- 11:54Speaker 1: considered to be much more closely linked to McConnell than
- 11:57Speaker 1: Andy Barr. And I don't know if you're like me,
- 12:00Speaker 1: but that means something to me. I want the guy
- 12:02Speaker 1: who's a little bit more distant from Mitch McConnell to
- 12:05Speaker 1: have the gig. So Andy Barr gets it. He's en route.
- 12:09Speaker 1: We'll see. He's got to win that general election. And
- 12:12Speaker 1: then we expect him to arrive and to do a
- 12:14Speaker 1: good job for the American people. There's just a lot
- 12:18Speaker 1: of big movement going on right now, especially in the
- 12:21Speaker 1: United States. Senate. We'll get to more Senate news in
- 12:24Speaker 1: just a moment. One more for you, at least. Let's see. Georgia.
- 12:29Speaker 1: Brad Raffensperger goes down in Georgia. Brad Raffensperger, the Secretary
- 12:33Speaker 1: of State, the source of so much chaos back during
- 12:36Speaker 1: that 2020 election. He just lost his Republican primary in
- 12:42Speaker 1: the state to try and become the Republican governor. Now
- 12:45Speaker 1: billionaire Rick Jackson and Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones are headed
- 12:49Speaker 1: to a runoff. there as Raffensperger goes down, Raffensperger out.
- 12:56Speaker 1: So we have a lot there. So it just really,
- 13:00Speaker 1: good night for the president of the United States. Now,
- 13:03Speaker 1: let me get to Texas. I want to get to
- 13:05Speaker 1: what happened in Texas yesterday, because this one, as big
- 13:09Speaker 1: as the results were last night, including the Thomas Massey headline,
- 13:12Speaker 1: I don't think any news story was quite as big
- 13:15Speaker 1: as President Trump's endorsement yesterday of Ken Paxton. Yes, you
- 13:21Speaker 1: heard me correctly. The president of the United States has
- 13:24Speaker 1: finally issued an endorsement in that huge U.S. Senate race
- 13:28Speaker 1: in Texas for Ken Paxton over the incumbent senator who's
- 13:33Speaker 1: been there for a long time, John Cornyn. Now, this
- 13:37Speaker 1: is creating chaos in Washington, D.C. It has been creating chaos.
- 13:41Speaker 1: The fact that the president didn't quickly endorse John Cornyn.
- 13:45Speaker 1: In fact, he was expected to. When Cornyn And Paxton
- 13:53Speaker 1: made it to the runoff phase earlier this year. There
- 13:56Speaker 1: were headlines all over the place that President Trump was
- 13:59Speaker 1: about to imminently endorse John Cornyn, the establishment incumbent Republican.
- 14:05Speaker 1: Everybody in the party, in the establishment Senate Republican Party,
- 14:09Speaker 1: was beating down President Trump's door at the White House,
- 14:12Speaker 1: endorse Cornyn, endorse Cornyn, endorse Cornyn. And the president apparently
- 14:15Speaker 1: was this close to doing it. But then Ken Paxton...
- 14:19Speaker 1: pulled a rabbit out of his hat. Chad, do you
- 14:22Speaker 1: remember what it was? It's a piece of legislation. It's
- 14:25Speaker 1: just three words, and it's the thing that we want
- 14:28Speaker 1: very desperately. It's the Save America Act. Ken Paxton realized
- 14:39Speaker 1: that in order to win the president's endorsement, in order
- 14:42Speaker 1: to serve the country well, in order to defeat John Cornyn,
- 14:47Speaker 1: He needed to go all in on the thing that
- 14:49Speaker 1: we all want. The thing that we all want, which
- 14:53Speaker 1: is the Save America Act. Yes, you're right. I should,
- 14:55Speaker 1: of course. Gavel in. Can I gavel? Yeah, there it is.
- 14:59Speaker 1: There's the gavel. The Save America Act. Paxton, holy crap.
- 15:07Speaker 1: Remember this? This was in the midst of all these
- 15:09Speaker 1: headlines about, oh, he's going to endorse Cornyn. He's going
- 15:11Speaker 1: to endorse Cornyn.
- 15:12Speaker 4: Here it comes.
- 15:14Speaker 1: It was March 5th. Ken Paxton posts the following. The
- 15:18Speaker 1: Save America Act is the most important bill the U.S.
- 15:20Speaker 1: Senate could ever pass. I'm committed to helping President Trump
- 15:23Speaker 1: get it done. I would consider dropping out of this
- 15:26Speaker 1: race if Senate leadership agrees to lift the filibuster and
- 15:28Speaker 1: passes the Save America Act. John Cornyn is a coward
- 15:33Speaker 1: who has refused to support abolishing the filibuster to pass
- 15:36Speaker 1: this bill. Now fake news reporters in the establishment are
- 15:40Speaker 1: trying to destroy me with misinformation. The truth is clear.
- 15:44Speaker 1: No one has been more loyal to Donald Trump than me.
- 15:46Speaker 1: Fighting the stolen 2020 election, being in Mar-a-Lago when he
- 15:50Speaker 1: announced his 2024 campaign, and standing with him in New
- 15:53Speaker 1: York in the face of lawfare. For the good of
- 15:55Speaker 1: our country and for the good of passing President Trump's agenda,
- 15:58Speaker 1: I am determined to help him get this done. Ken Paxton,
- 16:03Speaker 1: that was March 5th. Do you remember the Hail Mary
- 16:07Speaker 1: that he threw? It is so good. This is one
- 16:12Speaker 1: of the most brilliant political moves we've ever seen. Ken
- 16:16Speaker 1: Paxton makes that declaration. You want me to drop out?
- 16:19Speaker 1: Pass the Save America Act. Those are the terms. What
- 16:24Speaker 1: happened next? President Trump withheld his endorsement. No endorsement for Cornyn.
- 16:28Speaker 1: No endorsement for Paxton either. In fact, this continued to
- 16:31Speaker 1: stretch on for these past months without an endorsement. Both
- 16:34Speaker 1: men competing for the favor of the president of the
- 16:37Speaker 1: United States and most importantly, his base. Ken Paxton staying
- 16:41Speaker 1: dedicated entirely and consistent on this issue of the Save
- 16:44Speaker 1: America Act. John Cornyn adopting it late. all of a
- 16:49Speaker 1: sudden coming out and writing in New York papers that
- 16:51Speaker 1: he's for the Save America Act. He's for doing anything
- 16:53Speaker 1: that's necessary to get it passed now. And suddenly he
- 16:56Speaker 1: started sounding a lot like, well, members of this audience,
- 17:00Speaker 1: like people who want this for real. But you and
- 17:05Speaker 1: I are both very skeptical of establishment Republicans in the Senate.
- 17:09Speaker 1: It's one thing to say you're going to do it.
- 17:11Speaker 1: It's another to actually do it, which is why we've
- 17:14Speaker 1: been so frustrated with these Senate Republicans. They talk a lot.
- 17:18Speaker 1: They do very little. They do very little. And then
- 17:20Speaker 1: they make a lot of excuses for why they can't
- 17:22Speaker 1: do the things that they were talking about. We hate that.
- 17:26Speaker 1: John Cornyn has been a part of that club. And
- 17:29Speaker 1: just yesterday, President Trump decided, you know what? I'm sick
- 17:33Speaker 1: of that club. Here's what the president said about this.
- 17:37Speaker 1: Listen to this. This is an epic true social post.
- 17:41Speaker 1: I don't even know.
- 17:41Speaker 2: I'm going to.
- 17:43Speaker 1: I'm going to see if I can read a lot
- 17:45Speaker 1: of it. It's very long. It's very long. I know
- 17:48Speaker 1: you're a smart audience. You're capable of reading. You're literate.
- 17:52Speaker 1: But here's the president of the United States on this subject.
- 17:55Speaker 1: Let me constrain it a little bit so you can
- 17:57Speaker 1: see it here. Rumble.com slash Vince. The highly respected attorney
- 18:01Speaker 1: general of Texas, Ken Paxton, an America first patriot and
- 18:04Speaker 1: someone who has always been extremely loyal to me in
- 18:06Speaker 1: our amazing MAGA movement, is running for the United States Senate.
- 18:11Speaker 1: And he talks about how he's won Texas so many
- 18:12Speaker 1: times and by such big margins. He says, I know
- 18:15Speaker 1: Ken well. I've seen him tested at the highest and
- 18:18Speaker 1: most difficult levels. He's a winner. Ken is a strong
- 18:20Speaker 1: supporter of terminating the filibuster and very importantly, the Save
- 18:25Speaker 1: America Act, something which polls at 87%, including Democrats. the
- 18:32Speaker 1: president's favorite term for the left these days, and yet
- 18:35Speaker 1: can't seem to get approved. Perhaps Ken can outmove these
- 18:37Speaker 1: important elements of government forward, because with the filibuster, as
- 18:40Speaker 1: an example, the Democrats will terminate it on their first day.
- 18:43Speaker 1: And the president says that Democrats are going to make
- 18:46Speaker 1: DC and Puerto Rico states, and they're going to, of course,
- 18:49Speaker 1: get Democrat senators out of that. They're going to enlarge
- 18:51Speaker 1: the Supreme Court. They want 21 justices. They'll all be
- 18:54Speaker 1: radical left. And our country is is going to be
- 18:58Speaker 1: in a terrible place if Democrats do that. He said,
- 19:00Speaker 1: two years ago, our country was dead. Now we've got
- 19:02Speaker 1: the hottest country in the world. I want to keep
- 19:04Speaker 1: it that way. Ken Paxton will help me do it.
- 19:08Speaker 1: He says, Ken's a true MAGA warrior who's always delivered
- 19:11Speaker 1: for Texas. And by the way, won statewide elections in
- 19:15Speaker 1: Texas multiple times, just to be clear. This is an
- 19:18Speaker 1: aside from Vince on the electability of Ken Paxton. and
- 19:23Speaker 1: will continue to do so in the United States Senate,
- 19:24Speaker 1: says the president. He will tirelessly fight to continue the
- 19:27Speaker 1: great growth of our economy, cut taxes and regulations. He'll
- 19:32Speaker 1: advance made in the USA. He'll unleash American energy dominance.
- 19:34Speaker 1: He'll champion Texas oil and gas. He'll advocate for amazing
- 19:37Speaker 1: farmers and ranches, promote school choice, keep our borders secure,
- 19:40Speaker 1: stop migrant crime, support our military and veterans, safeguard our elections,
- 19:44Speaker 1: and protect our Second Amendment. Now, the president does have
- 19:48Speaker 1: a nice thing to say about John Cornyn. He says
- 19:50Speaker 1: he's a good man. He's a good man, he says.
- 19:52Speaker 1: And I worked well with him, but he was not
- 19:54Speaker 1: supportive of me when times were tough. And despite having
- 19:58Speaker 1: the most successful economy in the history of our country
- 20:01Speaker 1: during my first term, and with all of the many
- 20:03Speaker 1: other things that I accomplished, secure border, military dominance, Space Force,
- 20:07Speaker 1: all-time high stock markets, 401ks, all of this considered to
- 20:12Speaker 1: be legendary. John was very late in backing me in
- 20:16Speaker 1: what turned out to be a historic run for the
- 20:18Speaker 1: Republican nomination and then the presidency itself, both of which
- 20:21Speaker 1: were landslide victories. And more importantly, gave us the country
- 20:25Speaker 1: we have today, the golden age of America. Ken Paxton
- 20:29Speaker 1: has gone through a lot, the president says. In many cases,
- 20:33Speaker 1: very unfairly, but he's a fighter and he knows how
- 20:35Speaker 1: to win. A country needs fighters. The president says, Ken
- 20:42Speaker 1: Paxton has my complete and total endorsement to be the
- 20:44Speaker 1: next United States Senator from the great state of Texas.
- 20:47Speaker 1: Ken Paxton will never let you down. I want to
- 20:52Speaker 1: remind you of one other element here. We're on Truth
- 20:54Speaker 1: Social as I read this. This is Truth Post. Truth Social. Remember,
- 21:00Speaker 1: when the president was on the verge of endorsing John Cornyn,
- 21:06Speaker 1: Do you remember what happened on Truth Social? You remember
- 21:09Speaker 1: that phenomenon? So in addition to Paxton coming out and going, hey,
- 21:12Speaker 1: Save America Act, that's my ultimatum. Get that passed, I'm
- 21:15Speaker 1: dropping out of the race. John Cornyn can have it.
- 21:17Speaker 1: But if you don't get it passed, I'm staying in
- 21:18Speaker 1: the race. That was amazing. The other side of this
- 21:21Speaker 1: was you. The other side of this was everybody on
- 21:25Speaker 1: Truth Social going on. line telling the president, don't do it, Mr. President, please,
- 21:31Speaker 1: for the good of the country, for the good of
- 21:33Speaker 1: your agenda, please endorse Ken Paxton. Please. I didn't see,
- 21:38Speaker 1: I swear to you, we went through it. I didn't
- 21:40Speaker 1: see a single person on Truth Social in those early days,
- 21:45Speaker 1: on those comments, thousands of comments saying, endorse John Cornyn.
- 21:49Speaker 1: I prefer Cornyn. Cornyn would be better. Not a single one.
- 21:53Speaker 1: Everybody was for Paxton. And this goes back to a
- 21:57Speaker 1: really important point. The president does care about what his
- 22:00Speaker 1: base thinks. He does pay attention to this. This sometimes
- 22:05Speaker 1: I think gets lost in the analysis. It's like, oh,
- 22:06Speaker 1: they just do whatever Trump says. No, no, no. Wait
- 22:09Speaker 1: a second. This is a conversation between the president and
- 22:12Speaker 1: the people who put him in office. It's an ongoing conversation.
- 22:15Speaker 1: It never ends. People have debates within this party. People...
- 22:19Speaker 1: are talking amongst themselves. There's disagreements about what course of
- 22:22Speaker 1: action to take and what the priorities should be. But
- 22:25Speaker 1: those disagreements, when they're healthy, President Trump's paying attention to them.
- 22:30Speaker 1: He takes them seriously. And he factors them into his
- 22:33Speaker 1: thought process that brought us an endorsement a week before
- 22:37Speaker 1: this vote is set to take place. Yesterday comes the endorsement,
- 22:42Speaker 1: next week, Tuesday, is the end of the voting period.
- 22:46Speaker 1: Right now, Texas is in an early voting period. Producer
- 22:49Speaker 1: Jim's already voted for Ken Paxton. And if you're in Texas,
- 22:52Speaker 1: you can do that right now. Go vote for Ken Paxton.
- 22:55Speaker 1: But you have until Tuesday. Tuesday is election day in Texas,
- 22:58Speaker 1: where this decision will finally be made. And based on
- 23:02Speaker 1: what just happened, and based on the fact that John
- 23:05Speaker 1: Gordon couldn't even get a majority of votes in the
- 23:09Speaker 1: first pass, as an incumbent Republican senator, The writing's kind
- 23:14Speaker 1: of on the wall, isn't it? You can kind of
- 23:16Speaker 1: see what's going to happen already. Ken Paxton is destined
- 23:19Speaker 1: to win this race. And very likely, the general election
- 23:23Speaker 1: against James Talafrico. Yes, we've got that battle ahead. We'll
- 23:28Speaker 1: definitely talk about that. I've got a lot more to
- 23:30Speaker 1: get to on this. We need to dive in a
- 23:32Speaker 1: little bit more on the specifics because they're all so fascinating.
- 23:36Speaker 1: And this has been a part of an epic run
- 23:38Speaker 1: for the president of the United States and his agenda
- 23:41Speaker 1: that I feel very, very good about. I'll tell you
- 23:42Speaker 1: why in just a moment. ahead on this edition of Vince.
- 23:45Speaker 1: I want to thank one more of our great sponsors
- 23:48Speaker 1: who make this program possible. That is Brickhouse Nutrition. Brickhouse
- 23:51Speaker 1: Nutrition's got a great, great product called Lean. Familiar with Lean? Now,
- 23:56Speaker 1: Lean is going to help you lose weight. That's the key.
- 23:59Speaker 1: That's what Lean does. And the reason you should know
- 24:03Speaker 1: about Lean is all the attention is being paid to
- 24:06Speaker 1: the weight loss injections. It's everywhere, all over the media,
- 24:09Speaker 1: weight loss injections, because people are looking for dramatic results.
- 24:13Speaker 1: But here's the thing about the weight loss injections. Fundamentally,
- 24:16Speaker 1: they work by helping to lower your blood sugar and
- 24:17Speaker 1: reduce your appetite. But what if you're looking to do that?
- 24:20Speaker 1: You want to lose the weight, but you don't want
- 24:22Speaker 1: painful weekly injections, especially when you hear about some of
- 24:25Speaker 1: those intense side effects. This is why doctors created a
- 24:28Speaker 1: weight loss supplement called Lean by Brickhouse Nutrition. The results
- 24:32Speaker 1: have been remarkable. The study ingredients in Lean have been
- 24:34Speaker 1: shown to help lower your blood sugar, help you burn
- 24:36Speaker 1: fat by converting it into energy, and help you curb
- 24:40Speaker 1: your appetite and your cravings so you're not as hungry.
- 24:43Speaker 1: But listen, lean is not for the casual dieter. Doctors
- 24:46Speaker 1: created lean for frustrated dieters with 10 or more pounds
- 24:48Speaker 1: to lose. So here's even better news. They're having a
- 24:51Speaker 1: huge Memorial Day sale right now, and lean is 25% off.

- 25:28Speaker 1: a big endorsement in Texas. Chat, how do we feel
- 25:30Speaker 1: about this? We happy that Ken Paxton gets the endorsement?
- 25:33Speaker 4: Any.
- 25:34Speaker 1: Any Cornyn heads? Any Cornyn dogs? What do we call
- 25:37Speaker 1: Cornyn people in the chat today? I like it. I'm
- 25:42Speaker 1: very happy with this. Ken Paxton. I was actually just
- 25:45Speaker 1: thinking about Ken Paxton's record this week. I wrote an op-ed. Yeah,
- 25:48Speaker 1: the chat's happy, for those of you listening on the audio.
- 25:54Speaker 1: I did a look back this week at J.D. Vance's
- 25:57Speaker 1: Fraud Force. I wrote an op-ed. If you'd be so
- 26:00Speaker 1: kind as to share it, I'd appreciate it for the
- 26:02Speaker 1: daily caller. I came out of hibernation to write an op-ed.
- 26:04Speaker 1: I haven't written an actual opinion piece for a while.
- 26:08Speaker 1: And I just wrote a piece this week about how
- 26:11Speaker 1: great J.D. Vance's fraud force has been doing because I've
- 26:13Speaker 1: been that elated by it. And I was digging into
- 26:17Speaker 1: specific states and whether or not they've done the work
- 26:20Speaker 1: to detect Medicaid fraud. because J.D. Vance and the team
- 26:23Speaker 1: have said, hey, look, if you're not actually working to
- 26:25Speaker 1: detect Medicaid fraud, we're cutting off your Medicaid funding. So
- 26:29Speaker 1: either fix this or lose access to these federal dollars.
- 26:31Speaker 1: We're not playing around. God bless them for that approach.
- 26:35Speaker 1: But the two states that I pulled up that by
- 26:37Speaker 1: way of comparison, In one state, Texas, they're finding Medicaid
- 26:41Speaker 1: fraud like crazy. And that's been led by Ken Paxton,
- 26:45Speaker 1: the Attorney General of Texas. In fact, last year in Texas,
- 26:50Speaker 1: they indicted nearly 200 different people for Medicaid fraud in
- 26:56Speaker 1: the Lone Star State.
- 26:58Speaker 5: Awesome.
- 26:58Speaker 1: Love that they're doing that. Love that Ken Paxton has
- 27:00Speaker 1: been doing that. So in case you're wondering, what is
- 27:02Speaker 1: Ken Paxton like on the job? Well, he's completely dedicated
- 27:05Speaker 1: to the agenda that you and I keep voting for.
- 27:08Speaker 1: That's great. Meanwhile, in a state like Hawaii, which is
- 27:12Speaker 1: run by Democrats, do you know how many Medicaid prosecutions
- 27:14Speaker 1: they had last year for fraud? Medicaid fraud prosecutions?
- 27:18Speaker 2: Zero.
- 27:19Speaker 1: Do you know how many Medicaid fraud prosecutions they've had
- 27:21Speaker 1: over the last four years?
- 27:24Speaker 2: Zero.
- 27:25Speaker 6: Zero.
- 27:26Speaker 1: So you got Democrat states who are not even taking
- 27:28Speaker 1: this seriously at all. And meanwhile, a state like Texas
- 27:31Speaker 1: with an attorney general like Ken Paxton going, oh yeah,
- 27:34Speaker 1: we're taking it seriously. We're going after fraudsters.
- 27:37Speaker 6: Yeah, good.
- 27:37Speaker 1: Catch them. Catch the people that are stealing my money
- 27:40Speaker 1: and then throw them in jail. And if they're here illegally,
- 27:43Speaker 1: deport them. Get them the hell out of the country.
- 27:46Speaker 1: Ken Paxton's been doing that. So that's another good sign
- 27:50Speaker 1: of what Paxton is up to. So you get that
- 27:55Speaker 1: big endorsement yesterday, just absolutely massive here. And I Here's
- 28:03Speaker 1: some of the reaction to it, just to give you
- 28:05Speaker 1: a sense of how all of this went down. First
- 28:07Speaker 1: of all, John Cornyn is still insisting that he would
- 28:10Speaker 1: be better in this race against Talafrico. He thinks he
- 28:15Speaker 1: would be much, much better. Here is Cornyn on X yesterday,
- 28:22Speaker 1: posting to social media, saying the following. He said, here
- 28:26Speaker 1: we go. I've worked closely with President Trump through both
- 28:28Speaker 1: of his presidential terms, and I voted with him more
- 28:30Speaker 1: than 99% of the time. He has consistently called me
- 28:33Speaker 1: a friend in this race. It's now time for Texas
- 28:36Speaker 1: Republican voters to decide if they want a strong nominee
- 28:39Speaker 1: to help our Republican candidates down ballot and defeat Tallarico
- 28:42Speaker 1: in November, or a weak nominee who jeopardizes everything we
- 28:45Speaker 1: care about. I trust the Republican voters of Texas. Now,
- 28:49Speaker 1: this would be more credible if John Cornyn had won
- 28:53Speaker 1: his primary to begin with, and he didn't. The guy
- 28:57Speaker 1: couldn't even get a majority of the vote in the
- 28:59Speaker 1: first primary phase. The protest votes for the other candidates
- 29:05Speaker 1: in this race, which would have been Ken Paxton and
- 29:07Speaker 1: Wesley Hunt, Paxton, of course, makes it to the runoff.
- 29:11Speaker 1: They had the majority between the two of them. So
- 29:14Speaker 1: clearly Texas voters are looking for change. Clearly, Ken Paxton
- 29:19Speaker 1: is in a much stronger position. In fact, recent Republican
- 29:22Speaker 1: polling on this subject, although it hasn't been released publicly
- 29:25Speaker 1: behind closed doors, reportedly has Ken Paxton up over John
- 29:30Speaker 1: Cornyn by double digits. The energy for Paxton is so
- 29:34Speaker 1: much higher in Texas right now than it is for Cornyn.
- 29:37Speaker 1: And yet Cornyn is pretending like, I'm the electable one.
- 29:40Speaker 1: And then Cornyn just said yesterday that the following about
- 29:46Speaker 1: Ken Paxton, he said, this is going to be terrible
- 29:49Speaker 1: for our candidates. Watch this. Cut to here's John Cornyn yesterday.
- 29:52Speaker 7: Well, you know, we've always had these family fights within
- 29:57Speaker 7: the Republican Party, and then we unify. in order to
- 30:00Speaker 7: win the election in November. And we'll do that again.
- 30:05Speaker 7: But I believe that in terms of our success in November,
- 30:09Speaker 7: that Ken Paxton would be an albatross around the neck
- 30:13Speaker 7: of our candidates and would likely lose to James Tallarico.
- 30:17Speaker 7: I think we've come too far and worked too hard
- 30:20Speaker 7: to risk that.
- 30:22Speaker 1: Ken Paxton would be an albatross around the neck of
- 30:26Speaker 1: our candidates. Now, where have we heard this expression before?
- 30:30Speaker 1: he would be an albatross around the neck of our candidates.
- 30:33Speaker 5: Huh.
- 30:35Speaker 1: Oh, look. 2016, leading Republican senator tells CNN, Trump could
- 30:42Speaker 1: be an albatross to the party. Who's the leading Republican senator?
- 30:45Speaker 1: Who was that? Senate Majority Whip John Cornyn raised serious
- 30:49Speaker 1: concerns Monday about Donald Trump's surging presidential bid, becoming the
- 30:53Speaker 1: highest ranking congressional Republican to express fears about the real
- 30:57Speaker 1: estate mogul's candidacy. We can't have a nominee be an
- 31:02Speaker 1: albatross around the down-ballot races, Cornyn told CNN when asked
- 31:06Speaker 1: if he had concerns about Trump winning the Republican race.
- 31:09Speaker 1: That's a concern of mine, said Cornyn. When asked if
- 31:12Speaker 1: Trump would be a drain on the party's bid to
- 31:14Speaker 1: keep control of the Senate, the Texas senator said, I
- 31:16Speaker 1: think he certainly is a controversial figure. I think we
- 31:19Speaker 1: need someone who can unify the party as opposed to
- 31:21Speaker 1: divide the party. John Cornyn's predictive powers of who might
- 31:28Speaker 1: be an albatross in the Republican Party, he's batting zero.
- 31:34Speaker 1: He's doing awful on that particular prediction. So we'll see
- 31:39Speaker 1: how he does this year. When he's watching it from
- 31:42Speaker 1: the cheap seats, he's not going to be able to
- 31:44Speaker 1: be in this race anymore. And the fact that President
- 31:48Speaker 1: Trump made this endorsement, you got to wonder if he
- 31:52Speaker 1: was riding high on the fact that Bill Cassidy just
- 31:54Speaker 1: got thrown out too. You saw what happened this past week, guys, right?
- 31:58Speaker 1: On Saturday, we talked about it as we came into
- 31:59Speaker 1: the Monday show two days ago. Bill Cassidy in Louisiana
- 32:04Speaker 1: became the first incumbent senator to be thrown out in
- 32:09Speaker 1: a Senate primary since Dick Lugar back in 2012. Isn't
- 32:16Speaker 1: that amazing? Of either party, the first one to be
- 32:21Speaker 1: thrown out in a primary since Richard Lugar. And right now,
- 32:25Speaker 1: John Cornyn's on track to become the second person since
- 32:30Speaker 1: Richard Lugar to be thrown out in the primary phase
- 32:33Speaker 1: as an incumbent senator. There's long been this thought process
- 32:37Speaker 1: that if you're the incumbent, it's guaranteed to be yours.
- 32:40Speaker 1: You get the nomination. There's no real contest. Nobody's going
- 32:43Speaker 1: to unsee you. Yeah, that's all changed. We're cleaning out
- 32:46Speaker 1: the Senate right now. We're cleaning out the United States Senate.
- 32:51Speaker 1: And we're sending in people who are actually going to
- 32:53Speaker 1: get the job done. And what's the job? Election integrity.
- 32:56Speaker 1: The job right now is, job one, election integrity. Save America.
- 33:00Speaker 1: And if you're not going to do it, we're going
- 33:02Speaker 1: to find somebody else who will. Pretty good. Pretty good.
- 33:08Speaker 1: So that was, I think the president, realizing that, came
- 33:11Speaker 1: in on this and said, okay, we're going to do this.
- 33:13Speaker 1: And here's actually, the establishment tried really hard to stop
- 33:17Speaker 1: President Trump from making this endorsement. They knew it was coming.
- 33:21Speaker 1: I just saw a report from the Wall Street Journal overnight.
- 33:24Speaker 1: Trump bucked his party and made a risky bet on
- 33:26Speaker 1: Ken Paxton. And look who's here at the top. Senator
- 33:29Speaker 1: Tim Scott. Just pay attention to the people who are
- 33:33Speaker 1: on your side and the people who are rooting against
- 33:34Speaker 1: you here. Senator Tim Scott called President Trump on Tuesday, yesterday, reportedly,
- 33:40Speaker 1: with a last-ditch plea. The president was on the verge
- 33:42Speaker 1: of publicly endorsing Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton. Scott, a
- 33:47Speaker 1: South Carolina Republican who leads the Senate's campaign arm, urged
- 33:50Speaker 1: him to reconsider, according to people familiar with the conversation.
- 33:54Speaker 1: 30 minutes later, Trump backed Paxton anyway, breaking with Scott
- 34:00Speaker 1: and other senior Republicans in Washington who have long believed
- 34:04Speaker 1: that Paxton's Republican opponent, John Cornyn was a safer bet.
- 34:08Speaker 1: By the way, I think this is a lie. This
- 34:10Speaker 1: is not about being a safer bet. This is such garbage.
- 34:13Speaker 1: It's about John Cornyn being a loyalist to the establishment.
- 34:17Speaker 1: It's not that it's a safer bet. Ken Paxton has
- 34:19Speaker 1: won multiple statewide elections in Texas. If he becomes the nominee,
- 34:24Speaker 1: which he's likely to next week, he's going to be
- 34:26Speaker 1: up against one of the worst Senate Democrat candidates ever
- 34:31Speaker 1: in James Talafrico. James Talafrico is is a fake minister
- 34:35Speaker 1: who thinks that God is gender fluid and that God
- 34:39Speaker 1: is very happy with abortion. He's a psychopath. He's a psychopath.
- 34:45Speaker 1: And so can this race be any more clear? I mean,
- 34:49Speaker 1: it's obvious. Texans should, and I believe will, go for
- 34:56Speaker 1: Ken Paxton in the face of James Talafrico and this idea, oh,
- 35:00Speaker 1: John Cornyn is far more electable. How is he far
- 35:02Speaker 1: more electable? Republicans who dominate in the state of Texas
- 35:06Speaker 1: don't like John Cornyn. So why does that make him
- 35:08Speaker 1: more electable? The whole thing is so stupid. But that
- 35:13Speaker 1: was Tim Scott begging President Trump. John Thune found out
- 35:17Speaker 1: about it, apparently. President Trump called Thune, reportedly, according to
- 35:24Speaker 1: Al Weaver over at a news website called Notice.
- 35:27Speaker 2: I know Al.
- 35:27Speaker 1: Al used to work with me at the Daily Caller
- 35:29Speaker 1: many years ago. And here's what he said. Trump indicated
- 35:32Speaker 1: to Thune during a phone call on Monday that he
- 35:35Speaker 1: planned to endorse Paxton. Paxton has been up in private
- 35:37Speaker 1: polls lately with sources adding they saw one recently that
- 35:40Speaker 1: had him leading by double digits. Separately, another reporter by
- 35:45Speaker 1: the name of Rachel Bade revealed that on the same
- 35:48Speaker 1: phone call where John Thune was talking to President Trump,
- 35:54Speaker 1: the president had asked Thune to fire the parliamentarian reportedly
- 35:58Speaker 1: to get rid of the parliamentarian because the Senate parliamentarian
- 36:01Speaker 1: is standing in the way of getting all sorts of
- 36:03Speaker 1: important MAGA priorities accomplished. He says, okay, can you fire
- 36:07Speaker 1: the parliamentarian? John Thune said no, reportedly. And it was
- 36:11Speaker 1: on that same call that Trump said, okay, I'm supporting
- 36:13Speaker 1: Ken Paxton.
- 36:17Speaker 2: I love it.
- 36:19Speaker 1: I just love how this is all breaking for us,
- 36:22Speaker 1: for this important agenda. And Thune, oh my gosh, you
- 36:26Speaker 1: should see Thune. You want to see Thune? Thune is
- 36:28Speaker 1: very annoyed about what happened yesterday. Cut three. Watch this.
- 36:32Speaker 8: Given that you've spent months trying to encourage, persuade the
- 36:35Speaker 8: president to endorse John Cornyn in the Texas primary, and
- 36:38Speaker 8: given that the NRSC has invested heavily to help Cornyn
- 36:42Speaker 8: win that primary, how personally disappointed or frustrated are you
- 36:45Speaker 8: with the president's decision to endorse.
- 36:47Speaker 1: Ken Paxton today?
- 36:48Speaker 5: Well, I think you all know my position on this issue.
- 36:51Speaker 5: I've made it very clear for months now. And, um,
- 36:56Speaker 5: Senator Cornyn is a principle conservative. He is a very
- 36:59Speaker 5: effective senator for the state of Texas. But I don't,
- 37:03Speaker 5: none of us control what the president does. He made
- 37:06Speaker 5: his decision about that. That doesn't change the way I feel.
- 37:09Speaker 5: And I am certainly supportive, I will continue to be
- 37:14Speaker 5: supportive of Senator Cornyn and his relationship.
- 37:17Speaker 8: How much harder has the president's decision here made it
- 37:20Speaker 8: for you?
- 37:20Speaker 2: It was your number one job to keep the Republican majority.
- 37:23Speaker 8: Given your concerns about Ken Paxton's viability as a candidate.
- 37:27Speaker 5: We look at lots of races around the country, and
- 37:30Speaker 5: the majority runs through a lot of different states. We
- 37:33Speaker 5: have 24 seats up this time. The Democrats have only nine,
- 37:36Speaker 5: so we've got a lot more ground to defend. We
- 37:38Speaker 5: also have a couple of offensive opportunities. One state doesn't
- 37:42Speaker 5: determine the outcome of this election, but obviously we care
- 37:46Speaker 5: about every state, and we care about helping see our
- 37:49Speaker 5: incumbents succeed consistently. That being said, I feel very good
- 37:54Speaker 5: about where we are. As I've said before, I think
- 37:56Speaker 5: when it comes to winning elections, it starts with quality candidates.
- 37:59Speaker 5: Then you've got to have a record of accomplishment to
- 38:02Speaker 5: run on. You've got to have resources to get that
- 38:04Speaker 5: message out, tell that story to the American people. And
- 38:06Speaker 5: then you've got to have a really substantial effort to
- 38:10Speaker 5: get out the vote, a ground game. And I feel
- 38:12Speaker 5: confident in all those elements. in all the key states
- 38:16Speaker 5: where we're going to have competitive elections this year. And
- 38:18Speaker 5: I'm very confident we'll hang on and maybe even expand
- 38:21Speaker 5: the majority of the United States Senate, which is counter,
- 38:23Speaker 5: I know, to the, you know, sort of the narrative
- 38:26Speaker 5: these days. But the truth of the matter is we've
- 38:29Speaker 5: got the right candidates in the right places at the
- 38:31Speaker 5: right time and with the right resources. We're going to
- 38:34Speaker 5: win some races.
- 38:35Speaker 8: All right.
- 38:35Speaker 1: So you can see how how butthurt the dude is
- 38:38Speaker 1: about it. And you know what I love about President
- 38:40Speaker 1: Trump and John Soon's not doing this is President Trump
- 38:42Speaker 1: and his base that's doing this. is he's restoring the
- 38:46Speaker 1: grand old party. It's not the GOB, the good old boys.
- 38:50Speaker 1: It's the GOP, the grand old party. It's designed to
- 38:53Speaker 1: serve the interests of the American people. And that's what
- 38:57Speaker 1: it was historically. President Trump is restoring it. He's making
- 38:59Speaker 1: the GOP great again by doing that very thing. And
- 39:03Speaker 1: he's got rid, we're getting rid of John Cornyn. That's great.
- 39:06Speaker 1: And I told you I read of Bill Cassidy. You
- 39:07Speaker 1: see how Bill Cassidy repaid the favor? What is Bill
- 39:11Speaker 1: Cassidy interested in? Bill Cassidy yesterday instantly flipped in order
- 39:16Speaker 1: to try and upend President Trump's plans in Iran. Instantly.
- 39:20Speaker 1: So now that he lost, it was sour grapes. Bitter
- 39:23Speaker 1: Bill Cassidy yesterday flipped on President Trump and voted to
- 39:27Speaker 1: advance an anti-Trump Iran war powers resolution, 50 to 47.
- 39:34Speaker 1: The Republican yeas on the bill were Bill Cassidy, Rand Paul,
- 39:37Speaker 1: Lisa Murkowski, and Susan Collins. The usual suspects, plus Bill Cassidy. Now,
- 39:42Speaker 1: John Fetterman was on Trump's side, as Eric Daugherty notes
- 39:46Speaker 1: on X. So Yeah. So in other words, like, wait, oh,
- 39:50Speaker 1: did we just kick out a principled guy? No, he
- 39:53Speaker 1: doesn't have any principle at all. It's just sour grapes.
- 39:55Speaker 1: That's it. Now he wants to hurt Trump in his
- 39:58Speaker 1: waning months in office. Now he's now he's become apparently
- 40:01Speaker 1: he's becoming another Thumbelina, Thumbtillis in his waning months in office.
- 40:05Speaker 1: That's Bill Cassidy, in case you're wondering, you know, what's
- 40:07Speaker 1: Cornyn going to do? Somebody in my chat just pointed out,
- 40:10Speaker 1: I forgot about this. Somebody in the chat just pointed
- 40:12Speaker 1: out that President Trump did say on Truth Social that
- 40:14Speaker 1: whoever he endorses in the Texas race, the other person
- 40:16Speaker 1: should drop out immediately. Have you noticed Cornyn has not
- 40:20Speaker 1: dropped out immediately? He's staying in the race. You know,
- 40:25Speaker 1: he just wants to make it as chaotic as possible
- 40:26Speaker 1: up to the very bloody end. He doesn't care that
- 40:29Speaker 1: the writing's already on the wall. He's trying to graffiti
- 40:32Speaker 1: the wall. Okay, we'll keep going through what's happening in
- 40:37Speaker 1: the world coming up. I feel very good about this. Boy,
- 40:40Speaker 1: there's so much good stuff happening. It's ridiculous. I just
- 40:43Speaker 1: love it. Let me thank our great sponsors today, our
- 40:45Speaker 1: final sponsors of the program. Dose. You know about Dose?
- 40:49Speaker 1: Dose is just a wonderful, wonderful thing. It's also a
- 40:52Speaker 1: delicious drink, just so you know. There seems to be
- 40:55Speaker 1: a rising liver health crisis in America right now. And
- 40:58Speaker 1: for the average person, it might be very hard to
- 41:00Speaker 1: completely avoid. Modern life moves very fast and stress is high.
- 41:04Speaker 1: Diets are not perfect. And a lot of people are
- 41:06Speaker 1: realizing they need to pay closer attention to how they
- 41:08Speaker 1: support their overall wellness. And more Americans are turning to
- 41:12Speaker 1: gentler alternatives with ingredients they recognize like CoQ10, ginger, pomegranate, amla.

- 43:26Speaker 1: Let me see. Let me check my clips real fast
- 43:28Speaker 1: and we'll go based on that because I do have,
- 43:31Speaker 1: let's see, Cornyn's annoyed by this. John Thune's annoyed by this. Yeah,
- 43:37Speaker 1: that's pretty good. And then, and here's J.D.
- 43:40Speaker 5: Vance.
- 43:40Speaker 1: Okay, here we go. Here's J.D. Vance explaining what the
- 43:42Speaker 1: hell is happening because yesterday J.D. Vance hosted the White
- 43:45Speaker 1: House press conference in lieu of Caroline Leavitt, because she's
- 43:48Speaker 1: out on maternity leave looking after her children. And J.E.
- 43:52Speaker 1: Vance was asked about this big endorsement of Ken Paxton
- 43:55Speaker 1: by the president. And he said, it's pretty obvious what's
- 43:58Speaker 1: happening here. Listen to the vice president.
- 44:01Speaker 4: Today, we saw the president endorse Ken Paxton over John
- 44:04Speaker 4: Cornyn in the Texas Senate race. Do you think that
- 44:07Speaker 4: sends a message going forward for the next cycle to senators,
- 44:11Speaker 4: you know, considering running for reelection? or any mega-aligned potential
- 44:16Speaker 4: candidates that are considering challenging them?
- 44:18Speaker 2: Well, I'd say a couple things, Nick.
- 44:19Speaker 9: First of all, the President is very gratified by the
- 44:22Speaker 9: response that he's heard from the base and from a
- 44:25Speaker 9: lot of voters.
- 44:26Speaker 2: I think we're passionate about Ken Paxton.
- 44:28Speaker 9: We think Ken Paxton is going to be a great
- 44:29Speaker 9: senator for the people of Texas, but most importantly, a
- 44:32Speaker 9: great United States senator who can work on solving the
- 44:35Speaker 9: problems that all of us confront as a country together.
- 44:38Speaker 9: I've known John Cornyn for a long time. But unfortunately,
- 44:42Speaker 9: you know, when when it really counted, Ken Paxton was
- 44:45Speaker 9: there for the country, was there for the president. And
- 44:48Speaker 9: that's why he ultimately earned the president's endorsement. He thinks
- 44:50Speaker 9: he's going to be a better senator, thinks he's going
- 44:53Speaker 9: to make a better candidate. And so I do think
- 44:55Speaker 9: it sends a message, but really not just the endorsement,
- 44:59Speaker 9: but one of the things the president has done very
- 45:01Speaker 9: effectively going back 10 years in his leadership of the
- 45:04Speaker 9: Republican Party and the country. as President of the United States,
- 45:07Speaker 9: is he said, you know, I want people who fight
- 45:10Speaker 9: for the good. I want people who can't be bought
- 45:13Speaker 9: by corporate lobbyists, who can't be bought by Wall Street,
- 45:15Speaker 9: who can't be bought by special interests, who are going
- 45:17Speaker 9: to go to Washington and fight for the people who
- 45:20Speaker 9: actually elected them to those positions. And I think one
- 45:22Speaker 9: of the things we've seen in the Republican Party, while
- 45:25Speaker 9: I can't say that all of our representatives are perfect
- 45:28Speaker 9: or all of our senators are perfect, we have seen
- 45:30Speaker 9: a much more better crop of talent come into Washington
- 45:34Speaker 9: since Donald Trump has been the leader of the party
- 45:37Speaker 9: and the leader of the movement. I do think we're
- 45:38Speaker 9: going to continue to see that happening. But I think
- 45:40Speaker 9: the message that people should take from this is fundamentally
- 45:43Speaker 9: you have got to serve the people who sent you.
- 45:47Speaker 9: And if you don't do that, you're going to find
- 45:49Speaker 9: yourself out of step with voters or out of step
- 45:51Speaker 9: with the.
- 45:51Speaker 2: President of the United States. And that's not a good
- 45:53Speaker 2: place to be politically.
- 45:54Speaker 1: John Cornyn is out of step with voters. He's out
- 45:56Speaker 1: of step with the president of the United States. He's
- 45:58Speaker 1: not serving the people well. And he's pretty clear there, J.D.
- 46:02Speaker 1: Vance going, you know, if you succumb to all these
- 46:04Speaker 1: establishment interests, these corrupt lobbyists and all this other garbage,
- 46:07Speaker 1: you're not serving the people. Get the hell out. We
- 46:09Speaker 1: got to restore, again, make the grand old party great again,
- 46:13Speaker 1: so that it actually serves the interest of the American people.
- 46:16Speaker 1: And that's going to be, if President Trump succeeds, and
- 46:18Speaker 1: we're seeing a lot of success right now, this will
- 46:20Speaker 1: be one of his enduring legacies. Refocusing America's better party.
- 46:25Speaker 1: No question. The Republicans are the better party than the Democrats.
- 46:28Speaker 1: America's better party, refocusing them on what's good for this
- 46:31Speaker 1: country and making it great again. Wonderful. Just a wonderful, uh, uh,
- 46:35Speaker 1: trend lately. Uh, so we'll, uh, we'll see what happens
- 46:37Speaker 1: next Tuesday in Texas, but I kind of feel like
- 46:39Speaker 1: I know, I kind of feel like I know already. Um,
- 46:42Speaker 1: now JD Vance was great yesterday. This is the, um,
- 46:46Speaker 1: This was the the latest guy to step up to
- 46:49Speaker 1: the lectern to do the press briefing while Caroline Levitt's out.
- 46:52Speaker 1: Marco Rubio did a wonderful job. He just did an
- 46:54Speaker 1: amazing job when he did this recently.
- 46:58Speaker 6: J.D.
- 46:58Speaker 1: Vance had his turn yesterday and he did an amazing job, too.
- 47:00Speaker 1: I love these guys. I think, you know, I have
- 47:03Speaker 1: you noticed that there's like all sorts of like push
- 47:05Speaker 1: and pull? Like everyone's like, oh, this guy's better. You shouldn't.
- 47:07Speaker 1: He'd be better as president. He'd be better as president. Oh,
- 47:10Speaker 1: I don't like that guy. Don't fall for any of
- 47:12Speaker 1: the division. America would be in such a better place
- 47:14Speaker 1: if either of these dudes become the Republican nominee. And
- 47:17Speaker 1: the president has already just last week, he said that
- 47:21Speaker 1: that J.D. and Marco are a dream team. He straight
- 47:25Speaker 1: up said that he hasn't issued an endorsement yet on
- 47:27Speaker 1: this subject, but he said these guys would be a
- 47:29Speaker 1: dream team to to take up the mantle. And I
- 47:34Speaker 1: can't disagree. I think at this phase, they've definitely proven
- 47:37Speaker 1: themselves as really, really a part of a very deep
- 47:40Speaker 1: bench on the Republican side that's coming up. Now, having
- 47:45Speaker 1: said that, here's J.D. Vance yesterday. He did a good job.
- 47:48Speaker 1: He handled a goofball reporter yesterday. What's this guy? Oh,
- 47:52Speaker 1: Andrew Feinberg, who tried to create like some ridiculous Trump scandal.
- 47:55Speaker 1: Part of the reason I'm going to play this audio
- 47:57Speaker 1: for you is, as always, we talk about these left-wing
- 47:59Speaker 1: fake scandals of the week.
- 48:01Speaker 4: And.
- 48:02Speaker 1: There's on blue ski right now, they're alleging that President
- 48:05Speaker 1: Trump's sitting around all day doing stock trades, that he's
- 48:08Speaker 1: just all day long. He's just like plumping away at
- 48:11Speaker 1: his phone or something, making stock trades and then using
- 48:15Speaker 1: public policy to enrich himself. This is that blue ski
- 48:19Speaker 1: conspiracy theory just popped up in the press briefing yesterday.
- 48:22Speaker 1: And then J.D. Vance dunked it into the earth. Here's
- 48:24Speaker 1: how that one cut five.
- 48:26Speaker 10: The President's financial disclosures were released recently, and they showed
- 48:31Speaker 10: a lot of stock trades in companies that he has
- 48:35Speaker 10: talked up at events, official events at the White House,
- 48:39Speaker 10: on his true social account, sometimes even putting the stock
- 48:44Speaker 10: ticker symbols in his posts and encouraging people to buy
- 48:50Speaker 10: their stock. Americans, according to recent polling, are increasingly describing
- 48:57Speaker 10: the President as corrupt. And trading stocks.
- 49:02Speaker 2: This is a hell of a question.
- 49:03Speaker 10: Thank you, sir. Trading individual stocks is something that you
- 49:08Speaker 10: said that public officials should not be able to do
- 49:10Speaker 10: when you ran for Senate all those years ago. And
- 49:14Speaker 10: yet the President, who arguably has access to more non-public
- 49:20Speaker 10: information than your average senator, is not only buying and
- 49:23Speaker 10: selling individual stocks, either through his trust... Okay.
- 49:28Speaker 2: What's the question? The question is.
- 49:30Speaker 10: The question, sir, is how can you and your administration
- 49:36Speaker 10: argue to Americans that you're cleaning up corruption, preventing fraud,
- 49:41Speaker 10: you're fighting the sorts of things that harm people and
- 49:44Speaker 10: people's financial situations, when the president seems to be talking
- 49:49Speaker 10: up stocks that he owns, selling them and enriching himself.
- 49:52Speaker 2: Okay, so here, let me answer your question here. That
- 49:55Speaker 2: was a doozy.
- 49:56Speaker 9: Before I answer your question, I want to just observe
- 49:59Speaker 9: There are different ways to.
- 50:00Speaker 2: Ask a question, okay?
- 50:01Speaker 9: You can just ask a question and try to get
- 50:03Speaker 9: your answer, or you could do like a speech where
- 50:06Speaker 9: you say, you know, Mr. Vice President, you're a terrible
- 50:10Speaker 9: human being, and so is the President, and so is
- 50:12Speaker 9: the entire Cabinet.
- 50:14Speaker 2: And then I'm like, what's your question? And then your
- 50:16Speaker 2: question is, how dare you? Come on, man. Have a
- 50:19Speaker 2: little bit of objectivity in the way that you.
- 50:21Speaker 9: Ask these questions, because there were a lot of things
- 50:23Speaker 9: in that speech masquerading as a question that didn't actually
- 50:27Speaker 9: get asked, okay? Number one, the president doesn't sit at
- 50:31Speaker 9: the Oval Office on his computer on his Robin Hood
- 50:33Speaker 9: account buying.
- 50:34Speaker 2: And selling stocks. That's absurd.
- 50:36Speaker 9: He has independent wealth advisors who manage his money. He
- 50:41Speaker 9: is a wealthy person. He has had success in business.
- 50:43Speaker 9: He's not making these stock trades himself. And your question
- 50:47Speaker 9: imputes that. It doesn't say it exactly, but a reasonable
- 50:51Speaker 9: person listening to that question would assume the president is
- 50:53Speaker 9: sitting around and doing that.
- 50:54Speaker 2: He's not.
- 50:56Speaker 9: Second of all, you're right. I am a big fan
- 50:58Speaker 9: of banning members of Congress from trading stocks. So is
- 51:01Speaker 9: the president of the United States. All of us believe
- 51:05Speaker 9: that nobody should be taking proprietary information gained from public
- 51:09Speaker 9: service and buying and selling stocks.
- 51:12Speaker 1: Like Nancy Pelosi, which, by the way, remember when President
- 51:15Speaker 1: Trump mentioned that in the State of the Union this
- 51:17Speaker 1: year and then wanted to know if Pelosi was applauding? Oh,
- 51:24Speaker 1: it's so freaking funny. But anyway, that's the latest left-wing
- 51:28Speaker 1: conspiracy theory. Good for J.D. Vance for smacking that dude around. Well-deserved,
- 51:32Speaker 1: well-deserved beatdown. I don't think it's going to change him.
- 51:35Speaker 1: I think he's going to keep doing it, but he
- 51:37Speaker 1: deserved it. He definitely deserved it. J.D. Vance was also
- 51:41Speaker 1: asked yesterday by our reporter, Reagan Reist, about fraud force.
- 51:45Speaker 1: And remember, the vice president had mentioned earlier this year that, um,
- 51:52Speaker 1: that Ilhan Omar, as far as he could tell, had
- 51:55Speaker 1: committed immigration fraud when she married her brother. And this
- 51:59Speaker 1: might be deserving of an investigation. Well, here's the breaking
- 52:03Speaker 1: news for you. And again, this is courtesy of our reporter,
- 52:05Speaker 1: Reagan Reese, my White House correspondent at The Daily Caller.
- 52:07Speaker 1: She asks J.D. about this, and he says, actually, Reagan,
- 52:12Speaker 1: we have a full-blown Justice Department investigation going on into
- 52:16Speaker 1: Ilhan Omar right now. Here's the breaking news for you
- 52:20Speaker 1: from the vice president.
- 52:21Speaker 6: Watch.
- 52:22Speaker 2: Let's go. Is that Reagan all the way in the back,
- 52:23Speaker 2: Daily Caller? There we go.
- 52:25Speaker 1: Okay.
- 52:26Speaker 9: I figured out finally how the seating chart works.
- 52:30Speaker 6: I want to ask you about the anti-fraud task force.
- 52:33Speaker 6: You previously mentioned that Ilhan Omar seemed to have committed
- 52:36Speaker 6: immigration fraud. Do you anticipate an indictment against her, an
- 52:41Speaker 6: indictment related to that situation?
- 52:43Speaker 9: Yeah, so Reagan, I don't want to prejudge an investigation.
- 52:46Speaker 9: I mean, you read the things about Ilhan Omar and
- 52:49Speaker 9: about who she married and whether she didn't marry this
- 52:52Speaker 9: person or that person. It certainly seems like something fishy
- 52:55Speaker 9: is there, but everybody's entitled to equal justice under the laws.
- 52:59Speaker 9: So we're going to investigate it. We're going to take
- 53:01Speaker 9: a look at it. If we think that there's a crime,
- 53:02Speaker 9: we're going to prosecute that crime. And that's something the
- 53:05Speaker 9: Department of Justice is looking at right now.
- 53:07Speaker 2: Go ahead.
- 53:10Speaker 6: Based on what you've seen during your work on this
- 53:13Speaker 6: anti-fraud task force, do you believe anything should change about
- 53:16Speaker 6: our immigration or refugee policies to stop fraud in the
- 53:19Speaker 6: United States?
- 53:20Speaker 2: Well, yeah.
- 53:21Speaker 9: I mean, look, one thing I'd say is that The
- 53:24Speaker 9: biggest immigration fraud that existed under the Biden administration, it's
- 53:27Speaker 9: not just that they let a flood of people across
- 53:29Speaker 9: the southern border. That was obviously a very major problem
- 53:32Speaker 9: and something I'm proud of the president for stopping. But
- 53:34Speaker 9: it's also that they allowed the asylum and refugee claimant
- 53:37Speaker 9: process to become totally fraudulent.
- 53:40Speaker 2: And so here's what would happen, right?
- 53:41Speaker 9: You would take a person who, in normal cases, would
- 53:45Speaker 9: just be a traditional economic immigrant. Whether you let them
- 53:47Speaker 9: into the country or not, they're trying to come because
- 53:49Speaker 9: they want a better job, OK?
- 53:51Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 53:51Speaker 9: They would come into the country and say that they
- 53:53Speaker 9: were fleeing persecution. And they would say that they were
- 53:56Speaker 9: an asylum claimant. And then effectively what the Biden administration
- 53:59Speaker 9: would do is say, OK, you're an asylee.
- 54:03Speaker 2: Go go into the interior of the country. Here's a
- 54:05Speaker 2: work permit.
- 54:06Speaker 9: Maybe come back in 10 or 12 years for your
- 54:08Speaker 9: hearing on whether you actually have a legitimate asylum claim.
- 54:11Speaker 9: So what did that mean? That meant that person was
- 54:13Speaker 9: just completely given amnesty and released into the interior of
- 54:16Speaker 9: the country. Well, what if that person was a criminal?
- 54:18Speaker 9: What if that person actually had a violent history? We
- 54:22Speaker 9: didn't do any of the work necessary to ensure that.
- 54:24Speaker 9: that the people coming into our country claiming to be
- 54:27Speaker 9: asylum claimants actually had anything legitimate or anything good in
- 54:31Speaker 9: their background. So that is a serious problem. It is
- 54:34Speaker 9: something that we have fixed in the Trump administration. But fundamentally,
- 54:37Speaker 9: that loophole, you're going to see sometime in the future, somebody.
- 54:42Speaker 2: Is going to try to exploit that loophole.
- 54:44Speaker 9: And it's one of the things that we're very focused
- 54:45Speaker 9: on in the Fraud Task Force is making sure that
- 54:48Speaker 9: the people who exploited that loophole are actually prosecuted for it,
- 54:51Speaker 9: assuming they committed a crime.
- 54:54Speaker 1: Crush the fraudsters. Crush them. But that first– two great questions,
- 54:58Speaker 1: two great answers from both people. But that first question
- 55:02Speaker 1: about Ilhan Omar, are we going to see any sort
- 55:05Speaker 1: of prosecution of Ilhan Omar for marrying her brother for
- 55:08Speaker 1: this immigration fraud stuff? and you heard right there from
- 55:12Speaker 1: the Vice President of the United States, the Justice Department
- 55:14Speaker 1: is actively investigating that right now. Now, to be clear,
- 55:18Speaker 1: the Justice Department is not a congressional hearing. The Justice
- 55:20Speaker 1: Department's not some outside group commissioning a study. That's not
- 55:24Speaker 1: what this is. If the Justice Department is investigating something,
- 55:27Speaker 1: it's a criminal investigation. That was breaking news from the
- 55:32Speaker 1: Vice President that a criminal investigation is underway into Ilhan
- 55:35Speaker 1: Omar right now. I like this fraud force. I like
- 55:40Speaker 1: this fraud for us a lot. Also yesterday, speaking of
- 55:44Speaker 1: immigration chaos, the United States, of course, has been experiencing it.
- 55:47Speaker 1: But in some ways, our experience, as crappy as it's been,
- 55:50Speaker 1: thanks to the left, pales in comparison to what's been
- 55:53Speaker 1: happening in Europe. It has been utter chaos as Europe
- 55:56Speaker 1: kicked its borders open and welcomed in waves of chaotic
- 56:01Speaker 1: migration that have done nothing but deteriorate all of these
- 56:04Speaker 1: once great countries. And that's definitely true in the United Kingdom.
- 56:07Speaker 1: In the UK, they are undergoing it. And there's a
- 56:10Speaker 1: rising political movement to regain their sovereignty right now. Yesterday, J.D.
- 56:16Speaker 1: Vance was asked about this. And here's his excellent answer.
- 56:21Speaker 1: on why it's so incumbent on Brits to regain and
- 56:25Speaker 1: protect their own sovereignty. Listen to this. This is not
- 56:28Speaker 1: being well-received by the legacy media, replace people with invaders press.
- 56:36Speaker 1: Listen to this. All over the West.
- 56:39Speaker 2: And it's kind of crazy.
- 56:40Speaker 9: Is this idea that the way to generate prosperity is
- 56:43Speaker 9: to bring in millions and millions of unvetted people and
- 56:46Speaker 9: drop them into your neighborhoods, and we simply reject that idea.
- 56:50Speaker 9: So to everybody in the UK who rejects that idea,
- 56:53Speaker 9: I'd encourage them to just keep on going. It's okay
- 56:56Speaker 9: to want to defend your culture. It's okay to want
- 56:59Speaker 9: to live in a safe neighborhood. It's okay to want
- 57:01Speaker 9: your job to go to yourself and your neighbors and
- 57:04Speaker 9: not to a stranger who you don't even know. It
- 57:06Speaker 9: is reasonable for the people in Western societies to want
- 57:10Speaker 9: to control who comes into their country and who doesn't.
- 57:14Speaker 9: A lot of people, frankly, a lot of people in
- 57:16Speaker 9: the media have tried to persuade all of those people
- 57:19Speaker 9: that it's somehow racist to want to protect your borders,
- 57:22Speaker 9: even though very often the very people who are most
- 57:26Speaker 9: affected by low-wage immigration are lower income black and Hispanic
- 57:30Speaker 9: Americans right here in the United States of America. And
- 57:32Speaker 9: I guarantee that's true in the UK. So we believe
- 57:35Speaker 9: in making America great again. You can't do that unless
- 57:38Speaker 9: you protect your borders. I'd encourage our friends in the
- 57:40Speaker 9: UK to follow the same path.
- 57:42Speaker 1: That message should not be rare. What a great message
- 57:44Speaker 1: to end that press conference on, by the way, as
- 57:46Speaker 1: you see him wave and he steps away from the elector.
- 57:48Speaker 2: Anyway, J.D.
- 57:49Speaker 1: Did a great job. You know, somebody asked me yesterday, like,
- 57:51Speaker 1: who do you think did better, Marco or J.D.? I
- 57:53Speaker 1: was like, honestly, I think they both did great. I
- 57:55Speaker 1: think they both, it was wonderful. And it's great to see.
- 57:58Speaker 1: And the cool thing is President Trump is developing a
- 58:02Speaker 1: deeper and deeper bench here on the right of people
- 58:04Speaker 1: who are actually going to fight for the country, which
- 58:06Speaker 1: is wonderful. And I saw somebody in chat say, but
- 58:09Speaker 1: didn't J.D. used to attack Trump? Yeah, that's true. Years ago, J.D.
- 58:12Speaker 1: Vance did attack Trump, but he's talked about this publicly.
- 58:15Speaker 1: He says his views on Trump have definitely changed. That,
- 58:18Speaker 1: by the way, is also true of Marco, who ran
- 58:20Speaker 1: against President Trump in 2016. Little Marco. You remember that?
- 58:26Speaker 7: Oh, my gosh.
- 58:26Speaker 1: That was good TV. It was good TV. No, President Trump,
- 58:33Speaker 1: I think, has dramatically improved the quality of even people
- 58:37Speaker 1: who weren't on his side before, but now definitely are.
- 58:41Speaker 1: It's been a lot of fun to watch. You know
