Speaker 1: This is America with Rich Valdez, powered by politiweek.com.
0:10
Speaker 2: And Rich Valdez is with us, former Christie administration official.
0:13
Speaker 3: You work for Chris Christie, you've been in politics, a
0:15
Speaker 3: lot of public service stuff.
0:16
Speaker 4: Rich Valdez, columnist now with the Washington Times.
0:18
Speaker 5: This is America.
0:20
Speaker 3: Richie V, you're on the air with The Nation.
0:23
Speaker 5: This is America with your host, Rich Valdez.
0:26
Speaker 6: What's up, America? I am Rich Valdez. Valdez with an
0:29
Speaker 6: S at Rich Valdez on all of the social media.
0:32
Speaker 6: Welcome to the Monday night edition of the program. Happy
0:35
Speaker 6: to be here with you, your liberty-loving Latino amigo, 17
0:39
Speaker 6: blocks away from Madison Square Garden here in New York City,
0:41
Speaker 6: Times Square. It's a blessing to be with you. Give
0:44
Speaker 6: me a call, 877-VALDEZ-1. And I want to jump into
0:49
Speaker 6: it because this is all we've got. One day left
0:52
Speaker 6: until Election Day. tomorrow's election day, all across this wonderful land,
0:57
Speaker 6: and it's a time for us to choose. What will
1:01
Speaker 6: we decide? Will we go with good? Will we go
1:03
Speaker 6: with evil? Is it even fair for me to position
1:05
Speaker 6: this as good versus evil? These are questions that you've
1:08
Speaker 6: got to ask yourself, and you've only got a little
1:10
Speaker 6: while to do it.
1:11
Speaker 3: Now, why would I say that, right?
1:13
Speaker 6: Why would I say that you have one political party
1:15
Speaker 6: that embraces, in my opinion, chaos, illegality, and so many
1:22
Speaker 6: other things, And another one that is saying, look, we're
1:24
Speaker 6: trying to uphold law and order, but yet they're demonized
1:27
Speaker 6: for being racist and xenophobes, this, that, and the third, right?
1:31
Speaker 6: Having Gestapo is what they say. So one side is Gestapo.
1:36
Speaker 6: The other side is lawlessness. And most people fall right
1:41
Speaker 6: in the middle. They don't care about red. They don't
1:43
Speaker 6: care about blue. They don't care about the candidates. They
1:45
Speaker 6: don't care about any of this stuff. They care about
1:47
Speaker 6: going to work, making money, going on vacation, taking care
1:51
Speaker 6: of their kids. And all I can say is if
1:54
Speaker 6: you want to continue doing that, you've got to vote.
1:57
Speaker 7: Why?
1:57
Speaker 6: Because no, there's not a politician that's going to unilaterally
2:00
Speaker 6: take away your right to go on vacation. But yes,
2:03
Speaker 6: these policies will hurt your pocket. I know it's difficult
2:07
Speaker 6: because you might have a TikTok account. You might have
2:10
Speaker 6: an Instagram account. You might have a television or a
2:12
Speaker 6: radio in your car. And you've probably heard over the last,
2:16
Speaker 6: you know, nearly two years how bad Donald Trump is.
2:20
Speaker 6: And you've probably heard so much of that. That you
2:23
Speaker 6: may have forgotten how bad life really was during the
2:27
Speaker 6: Biden years. Maybe you forgot about those $ 5 gas prices.
2:32
Speaker 6: Maybe you forgot about how high inflation was. Maybe you
2:36
Speaker 6: forgot that there was no eggs for a long time.
2:39
Speaker 6: Or that they were $ 6. Maybe you forgot. So I'm
2:44
Speaker 6: here to remind you. I'm here to remind you that
2:46
Speaker 6: you can't always believe the hype. You can't always go
2:49
Speaker 6: with what you're hearing over and over and over again.
2:53
Speaker 6: Especially for me. Putting yourself in my shoes. I'm Hispanic.
2:56
Speaker 6: My parents are from Puerto Rico. I was born in Brooklyn,
2:59
Speaker 6: New York. I live in Jersey now.
3:01
Speaker 3: And guess what?
3:03
Speaker 6: People want to remind me all the time that because
3:07
Speaker 6: we are Hispanic, that we must not forget how Trump
3:12
Speaker 6: is treating our people. And I'm not going to say
3:16
Speaker 6: these are not my people. I think they are, right?
3:19
Speaker 6: I stand with Hispanics on so many issues. But when
3:23
Speaker 6: it comes to any president of the United States enforcing
3:28
Speaker 6: immigration law, who am I to get in the way
3:31
Speaker 6: of that and start saying, no, we shouldn't have immigration law.
3:34
Speaker 6: We should abolish ICE. That's insanity, especially when they're going
3:39
Speaker 6: after the bad guys. Now, I understand if the media
3:41
Speaker 6: tells you every single day, but they're not going after
3:44
Speaker 6: the bad guys. They're going after your abuela. They're going
3:48
Speaker 6: after your grandpa. They're going after the guy who makes
3:51
Speaker 6: your food every day. People who work hard and they're
3:55
Speaker 6: paying taxes into an I-10 or they're paying taxes under
3:59
Speaker 6: identity fraud to somebody else's social security number. But they're
4:02
Speaker 6: not here to be criminals. Why should they get deported?
4:06
Speaker 6: They're a big part of our economy.
4:09
Speaker 3: Maybe they are.
4:10
Speaker 6: I'm sure buying cocaine is a big part of our economy.
4:12
Speaker 6: Nobody's going to ask if you lock up a drug dealer.
4:15
Speaker 6: I'm sure strippers make up a big part of the economy. Anybody,
4:18
Speaker 6: raise your hand, not if you're driving. Raise your hand
4:20
Speaker 6: if you think strippers don't make a bunch of money
4:22
Speaker 6: every night in their strip bars. That's money that construction workers, doctors, lawyers, cops,
4:28
Speaker 6: and everybody else who's sitting around the bar at a
4:30
Speaker 6: strip bar is contributing to that economy. Does anybody bat
4:34
Speaker 6: an eye about the stripper's money?
4:40
Speaker 7: Right?
4:41
Speaker 6: What if that stripper now starts turning tricks? She becomes
4:44
Speaker 6: a prostitute and she gets arrested for prostitution. And she
4:47
Speaker 6: happens to get arrested after turning tricks and picking up
4:50
Speaker 6: her kid. And now she's got her kid in the car.
4:53
Speaker 6: She's going home. Or a guy, let's say. When I
4:57
Speaker 6: was a barber, I had a guy, a client, that
5:00
Speaker 6: was a male stripper. And he did a lot of
5:02
Speaker 6: prostitution on the side with men.
5:04
Speaker 3: How about that? So let's just say that guy.
5:06
Speaker 6: Goes and he's a divorcee, let's say. Goes and picks
5:10
Speaker 6: up his kid from his ex-wife, his baby's mom, whatever
5:14
Speaker 6: you want to call it. And now the cops arrest
5:16
Speaker 6: him because he's money laundering. Or because along with his
5:20
Speaker 6: stripping and his prostitution, he sells them a little ecstasy.
5:23
Speaker 6: So he gets arrested on a drug charge. Are we
5:25
Speaker 6: supposed to now rally around the car when the cops
5:28
Speaker 6: are pulling him over and saying we need to abolish
5:30
Speaker 6: the police? How dare you arrest him? What's wrong with you?
5:33
Speaker 6: Do you have a warrant? What have we become in
5:36
Speaker 6: this society? These are the choices that people have to
5:38
Speaker 6: make tomorrow in the voting booth. We're not using logic.
5:40
Speaker 6: We're not using common sense. We're not using right and wrong.
5:43
Speaker 6: We're not using our moral compass. People are using an
5:46
Speaker 6: emotional compass. attachment to certain issues. That's not even legitimate.
5:51
Speaker 6: We can't become emotionally attached to certain issues just because
5:54
Speaker 6: the media told us to, or because some caption on
5:57
Speaker 6: a video tugged at our heart, making ICE cops look
6:01
Speaker 6: like Gestapo because they're wearing masks. And listen, I'm no
6:05
Speaker 6: fan of the mask, but I am a fan of
6:07
Speaker 6: law and order. I am a fan of immigration control.
6:10
Speaker 6: I am a fan of doing the right thing. Punto final, period,
6:13
Speaker 6: the end.
6:14
Speaker 3: What are you going to do?
6:14
Speaker 6: This is as old as the day is long. 1964, right?
6:19
Speaker 6: Or 19, yeah, was that 62 years ago? We had
6:23
Speaker 6: a candidate running for office and he was talking about
6:26
Speaker 6: the importance of the upcoming election and how serious the
6:30
Speaker 6: matter was.
6:31
Speaker 3: Listen to this. This is the issue of this election.
6:35
Speaker 1: Whether we believe in our capacity for self-government or whether
6:38
Speaker 1: we abandon the American Revolution and confess that a little
6:41
Speaker 1: intellectual elite in a far distant capital can plan our
6:44
Speaker 1: lives for us better than we can plan them ourselves.
6:47
Speaker 1: You and I are told increasingly we have to choose
6:49
Speaker 1: between a left or right. Well, I'd like to suggest
6:52
Speaker 1: there is no such thing as a left or right.
6:54
Speaker 1: There's only an up or down. Man's old age dreams.
6:58
Speaker 1: the ultimate in individual freedom consistent with law and order,
7:02
Speaker 1: or down to the ant.
7:04
Speaker 8: Heap of totalitarianism.
7:05
Speaker 1: And regardless of their sincerity, their humanitarian motives, those who
7:09
Speaker 1: would trade our freedom for security have embarked on this
7:13
Speaker 1: downward course.
7:14
Speaker 9: Ronald Reagan.
7:15
Speaker 6: That is Ronald Reagan. Ronaldus Magnus, the 40th President of
7:20
Speaker 6: the United States. And that was in 1964 that he
7:24
Speaker 6: gave that speech. Let that sink in.
7:27
Speaker 3: He's right.
7:27
Speaker 6: It's not about left or right. It's always about up
7:29
Speaker 6: or down. Which direction do you want America to go in? Now,
7:32
Speaker 6: a lot of people are going to vote their pocketbook.
7:34
Speaker 6: A lot of people are going to vote for themselves.
7:36
Speaker 6: But I just always try to remind people, you want
7:39
Speaker 6: to vote for yourself, okay. Try voting for your children,
7:42
Speaker 6: for your grandchildren that maybe aren't here yet. Think about
7:45
Speaker 6: the America you want them to grow up in. I
7:47
Speaker 6: don't know anybody who thinks that It's better to be
7:51
Speaker 6: on welfare, to be on government assistance, to have a
7:54
Speaker 6: government program than it is to work.
7:57
Speaker 3: Now, I'm lying.
7:57
Speaker 6: I've met several people like that. They're people that live
8:00
Speaker 6: in housing projects. They're people that have never tried to
8:03
Speaker 6: accomplish their dreams. They're people that have never tried to
8:06
Speaker 6: leave the four walls of their government-funded apartment. And I'm
8:10
Speaker 6: not crapping on those people.
8:12
Speaker 3: They're afraid.
8:14
Speaker 6: They're afraid to pursue the American dream. They're afraid to
8:17
Speaker 6: be whatever God has called them to be.
8:19
Speaker 3: They're afraid. Do you want to be afraid? Do you
8:23
Speaker 3: want to live in fear?
8:24
Speaker 6: Do you want to support candidates that support the destruction
8:28
Speaker 6: of the country as we know it? Because get this
8:32
Speaker 6: through your head. They want to destroy this country as
8:35
Speaker 6: we know it. This isn't about them hating the country
8:38
Speaker 6: per se, which I would argue many of them do.
8:41
Speaker 6: This is about transforming the America of that you and
8:45
Speaker 6: I know. And I mean, this couldn't be more clear.
8:48
Speaker 6: When you listen to what some of them say, some
8:50
Speaker 6: of the most radical on the left, for example, Leah Greenberg,
8:55
Speaker 6: she's the co-founder of an organization called Indivisible. It's a
8:59
Speaker 6: left-wing organization. And she made some comments on a podcast
9:02
Speaker 6: this week saying that their goal is to transform American democracy.
9:09
Speaker 6: So it makes you think, Is there something wrong with
9:11
Speaker 6: American democracy now? And by the way, is America even
9:14
Speaker 6: a democracy or is this a republic, a representative democracy,
9:18
Speaker 6: if you will, where we elect people to act in
9:20
Speaker 6: government on our behalf? Do we have an electoral college
9:24
Speaker 6: that elects a president?
9:25
Speaker 3: Yes, we do.
9:26
Speaker 6: Have we ever had a president that was not elected
9:28
Speaker 6: through the Electoral College?
9:29
Speaker 3: No, we have not.
9:30
Speaker 6: Every single president has gone through this process that our
9:33
Speaker 6: founders created in the Constitution. So all they do is
9:35
Speaker 6: find fault with the Constitution.
9:37
Speaker 3: It's wrong. It's racist. It's genocidal.
9:40
Speaker 8: It's xenophobic.
9:41
Speaker 6: Okay, well, it's been racist all those years, so now
9:43
Speaker 6: we have to change it. This is their argument. This
9:45
Speaker 6: is what she wants to do to America. This is
9:48
Speaker 6: the change, right? America may not be perfect, but it's
9:51
Speaker 6: the America that we have. And I'll tell you what.
9:54
Speaker 6: when it comes to living in fear, I live in
9:56
Speaker 6: fear of seeing this America change anymore. I think we
9:59
Speaker 6: need to go back to the way things were. I
10:01
Speaker 6: remember 10 years ago, right?
10:06
Speaker 3: 2016. Things weren't as crazy as they are now. Listen
10:09
Speaker 3: to Leah Greenberg. Check this out.
10:11
Speaker 10: Worth just naming that there's, you know, there's a lot
10:13
Speaker 10: of discourse around is impeachment the goal? And our take
10:16
Speaker 10: on this is that impeachment is a tactic within a
10:18
Speaker 10: strategy to get to a broader goal. Like our goal
10:22
Speaker 10: is bigger than Donald Trump or this current administration. Our
10:25
Speaker 10: goal is the transformation of American democracy so that it
10:28
Speaker 10: is inclusive and representative and resilient to future authoritarians and
10:33
Speaker 10: authoritarian attacks.
10:34
Speaker 3: So future authoritarian attacks. That's wild.
10:38
Speaker 6: That's insanity to me. But the problem here is they're
10:41
Speaker 6: trying to fool you into thinking that Donald Trump is
10:43
Speaker 6: some sort of authoritarian. And they're very good at it, right?
10:46
Speaker 6: The first thing they do, and this one is I
10:49
Speaker 6: blame El Trompito for, they give all the ammunition with
10:52
Speaker 6: the federal cops with masks on. If these ICE officers
10:56
Speaker 6: didn't have masks on, you know how hard it would
10:58
Speaker 6: be to call them authoritarian.
11:00
Speaker 3: But they do.
11:01
Speaker 6: So it starts to fool people who don't understand. And
11:04
Speaker 6: if they can effectively make the case that these are authoritarians,
11:08
Speaker 6: that these are the bad guys, And people think, well,
11:11
Speaker 6: I don't want some mass federal agents coming to my
11:14
Speaker 6: house and taking me.
11:15
Speaker 3: First, it's the illegal immigrants. Then it's me. Now what
11:18
Speaker 3: do I do? Oh, my gosh. Lions and tigers and bears.
11:20
Speaker 5: Oh, my.
11:21
Speaker 6: This is the art of influencing people. And that's where
11:23
Speaker 6: they've arrived. They've made Trump to be the boogeyman. And
11:27
Speaker 6: every Republican, therefore, is the boogeyman. So the only option
11:30
Speaker 6: you have is to go with the Democrats. And it
11:32
Speaker 6: doesn't matter if we believe in abortion. It doesn't matter
11:34
Speaker 6: if we believe in higher taxation. It doesn't matter if
11:36
Speaker 6: we believe in stifling growth. It doesn't matter what we
11:39
Speaker 6: believe in. Ultimately, this is what is going to help
11:43
Speaker 6: you from the big bad wolf. But when you hear
11:46
Speaker 6: Donald Trump and you hear him talking about what matters,
11:50
Speaker 6: he's talking about the evil that exists in the world.
11:53
Speaker 6: He's talking about how extreme, how dangerous these people can be.
12:01
Speaker 6: So it doesn't sound too dangerous to me to vote
12:04
Speaker 6: for a Republican. To me, it sounds dangerous to have
12:06
Speaker 6: somebody that believes in taking your business, somebody that believes
12:09
Speaker 6: in that you should give up everything you've got. You see, ultimately,
12:13
Speaker 6: they're trying to make the case that we need to
12:17
Speaker 6: change everything. She opens the door to say, which isn't
12:20
Speaker 6: within her rights, right? It is within her rights to say,
12:24
Speaker 6: I want to create an organization, a political movement. I
12:26
Speaker 6: want to change what I don't like. I don't like
12:28
Speaker 6: the Constitution. Let's change the Constitution.
12:30
Speaker 2: Good.
12:30
Speaker 3: You can do that. Nothing wrong with that.
12:33
Speaker 6: I have a problem when it becomes, I want to
12:36
Speaker 6: change the Constitution. And I want to go after every
12:39
Speaker 6: last person that served in this government. And I want
12:42
Speaker 6: to make sure you pay for what you did. And
12:44
Speaker 6: you're going to remember 2027. And when they're pressed on it,
12:47
Speaker 6: they're going to say, well, we meant at the ballot box.
12:49
Speaker 6: But we all know how the left operates. Trust me,
12:52
Speaker 6: you've never seen a bunch of me and my friends
12:55
Speaker 6: that are MAGA people stalking anybody on the left and
12:58
Speaker 6: trying to harm them. But the left has tried to
13:01
Speaker 6: kill people and succeeded. Charlie Kirk, to be a perfect example.
13:06
Speaker 6: President Donald Trump getting shot in the ear when he
13:09
Speaker 6: got grazed at the Butler rally in Pennsylvania. You don't
13:14
Speaker 6: see that happening the other way. People will try and
13:16
Speaker 6: make the case, oh, what about that Republican guy? There
13:18
Speaker 6: might be an isolated incident of something or other. But
13:22
Speaker 6: this is not the mantra of the Republicans. It's not
13:25
Speaker 6: the mantra of the MAGA movement for sure. They're not
13:29
Speaker 6: saying let's make America great again by killing everybody. They're
13:33
Speaker 6: saying let's make America great again by deporting the people
13:36
Speaker 6: who shouldn't be here, stopping the flow of drugs, stopping
13:40
Speaker 6: the flow of the radical left from taking over the government.
13:46
Speaker 6: And in essence, that's really the message, right, in a nutshell.
13:50
Speaker 6: But they'll have you believe that somehow it's okay because
13:54
Speaker 6: you are so wrong because you're a Trump supporter. We've
13:56
Speaker 6: got to destroy your life. You don't have a right
13:58
Speaker 6: to make a living. You don't have a right to
14:00
Speaker 6: do anything. That's the difference between the left.
14:02
Speaker 7: Why?
14:03
Speaker 6: Because they're godless. They will stop at nothing because they
14:08
Speaker 6: believe their political cause is the end all of their existence.
14:13
Speaker 6: They exist to promote their leftism. I don't exist to
14:18
Speaker 6: promote a right of center point of view. I exist
14:21
Speaker 6: because God created me for his own pleasure. And that
14:24
Speaker 6: is a key distinction. That's why there are so many
14:28
Speaker 6: people in the middle. that are saying, I just want
14:31
Speaker 6: to go to work. I just want to take my
14:32
Speaker 6: kids on vacation. I don't want to have to deal
14:34
Speaker 6: with all this crazy rhetoric. The problem is you're in
14:37
Speaker 6: their crosshairs, not mine. They're targeting you, telling you that
14:42
Speaker 6: you're a fascist if you don't join their team. I'm
14:45
Speaker 6: telling you, if you don't join my team, enjoy Disneyland.
14:48
Speaker 3: Have a great day.
14:50
Speaker 6: That is where the danger lies. There is no future.
14:54
Speaker 6: There is no peace. There is no prosperity. It's shared
14:57
Speaker 6: demise like Cuba, like Venezuela, like China. A handful of
15:03
Speaker 6: people making all the money. People say that's America. Oh,
15:06
Speaker 6: a handful of people.
15:07
Speaker 3: Guess what?
15:08
Speaker 6: I know plenty of people that have bought a home,
15:12
Speaker 6: plenty of people that will continue, excuse me, to buy homes.
15:15
Speaker 6: I'm not saying everybody, and I'm not saying there's not
15:19
Speaker 6: a problem. We do have an affordability problem. which translates
15:24
Speaker 6: to me into an economic problem. We need a more
15:28
Speaker 6: robust economy. This doesn't mean that Trump is a failure.
15:32
Speaker 6: This means Trump has got his foot on the gas
15:34
Speaker 6: and he hasn't gotten there yet. We're headed in the
15:36
Speaker 6: right direction, but we can't get there with these radical
15:39
Speaker 6: leftist policies. When you hear Donald Trump talk about what's
15:43
Speaker 6: going on and why we should vote for Republicans and
15:45
Speaker 6: what has been accomplished, I have to say, he talks
15:50
Speaker 6: about their extremism and I don't think he's wrong.
15:54
Speaker 3: Listen to the president.
15:55
Speaker 11: As you know, this is the last day before the
15:57
Speaker 11: midterm elections, the most important midterm, I believe, in our lifetime.
16:02
Speaker 11: The Democrat Party is nominated the most extreme and dangerous
16:07
Speaker 11: slate of candidates in American history. These are the most
16:10
Speaker 11: dangerous candidates ever put up. There's never been anything like
16:15
Speaker 11: what we're seeing jihadists and Muslim Brotherhood members and people
16:21
Speaker 11: that nobody can even believe what will happen.
16:23
Speaker 6: Now again, he's talking about Abdul El-Sayed, right, when he
16:26
Speaker 6: says Muslim Brotherhood members. Abdul El-Sayed has two family members
16:30
Speaker 6: that have been associated with members of the Muslim Brotherhood,
16:35
Speaker 6: which is a terrorist organization that took over Egypt, took
16:40
Speaker 6: over their political system, and radicalized Egypt, and was eventually
16:44
Speaker 6: kicked out of Egypt, And where did they go? They
16:47
Speaker 6: fled to Gaza. And what happens to lie between Gaza
16:51
Speaker 6: and Egypt? Seven miles of border wall. And I don't
16:56
Speaker 6: mean seven miles sideways. Seven miles the long way. They
17:02
Speaker 6: have seven different fences that are a mile apart each.
17:06
Speaker 6: They have a seven-mile buffer because they didn't want anything
17:10
Speaker 6: to do with the Muslim Brotherhood. And that is, in fact,
17:13
Speaker 6: other Muslims. Now, there are Christians. There are Coptic Christians
17:17
Speaker 6: in Egypt. But it was other Muslims that expelled them
17:21
Speaker 6: because of their radical terrorist ways. So, this is not
17:27
Speaker 6: me being an Islamophobe. This is not the Egyptians being Islamophobes,
17:32
Speaker 6: they themselves being from Islam.
17:36
Speaker 1: No.
17:36
Speaker 6: This is a known entity known as the Muslim Brotherhood,
17:40
Speaker 6: which pretends to be a political party, but truly is
17:43
Speaker 6: a terrorist organization and is recognized as such globally. So
17:49
Speaker 6: when President Trump talks about this, he's not talking about
17:51
Speaker 6: we don't like Abdul El-Sayed because of his name, or
17:54
Speaker 6: as President Clinton was recently suggesting, and I talked about
17:57
Speaker 6: this one or two shows ago, where he was saying
18:00
Speaker 6: that we're tired of beating up on.
18:03
Speaker 3: Muslims for being Muslims. No, this has nothing to do
18:06
Speaker 3: with that.
18:07
Speaker 6: This has to do with terrorist ties. not because he
18:10
Speaker 6: has a funny name. Do you forget that we elected
18:13
Speaker 6: a guy named Barack Obama? And at the time, President
18:17
Speaker 6: Trump was out there when he was candidate, when he
18:19
Speaker 6: was nobody, right? He was just Donald Trump from New York,
18:22
Speaker 6: saying that he's a Muslim, that he was born in Kenya,
18:24
Speaker 6: he had a fake birth certificate. All that was said,
18:29
Speaker 6: and yet America still sided with Barack Hussein Obama. So
18:35
Speaker 6: when we say that we don't like Abdul El-Sayed, because
18:38
Speaker 6: of his ties to the Muslim Brotherhood. It's not because
18:41
Speaker 6: he chose to be a Muslim. It's not because of
18:43
Speaker 6: anything other than the fact that the Muslim Brotherhood is
18:47
Speaker 6: a terrorist organization. And to his credit, he has disavowed
18:52
Speaker 6: any of the comments made by his sister. But he
18:56
Speaker 6: always does it in a very, you've got to push
18:59
Speaker 6: hard to get him to say, do you disavow what
19:01
Speaker 6: they did and what they said? And he starts pushing
19:03
Speaker 6: back saying, you know, why are you asking? What's the
19:05
Speaker 6: genesis of your question? and making it seem to be
19:09
Speaker 6: like they're being Islamophobic. If I'm Puerto Rican and I
19:13
Speaker 6: tell you that I have family members that supported Al-Qaeda,
19:16
Speaker 6: the terrorist group that knocked down the Twin Towers, according
19:19
Speaker 6: to our government's reports, wouldn't it be fair to say
19:23
Speaker 6: I'm going to the United States Senate where I'm going
19:25
Speaker 6: to have a senatorial clearance, a security clearance? Isn't it
19:30
Speaker 6: fair for me to at least answer the questions about
19:32
Speaker 6: my family members that were involved with terrorists? I think
19:35
Speaker 6: that's fair. But somehow, we're all bad guys. So when
19:39
Speaker 6: President Trump talks about that, that's what he's talking about.
19:42
Speaker 6: And don't let the media fool you.
19:44
Speaker 11: Looking at and all committed to the same radical agenda,
19:48
Speaker 11: open borders, raising your taxes by trillions of dollars, taking
19:52
Speaker 11: away your guns, transgender utilization of your children, abolishing oil
19:58
Speaker 11: and natural gas, sending energy costs skyrocketing and opening the
20:03
Speaker 11: floodgates to millions of migrants from all over the world.
20:08
Speaker 11: hoping to get them to be able to vote. That's
20:11
Speaker 11: the only reason they're letting them in. They want them
20:12
Speaker 11: to be able to vote.
20:14
Speaker 6: He's 100% right. Look, in the last month or two,
20:18
Speaker 6: we've seen the Department of Justice and the FBI continue
20:21
Speaker 6: to arrest people all over the country. Not because they're
20:25
Speaker 6: trying to vote, because they're trying to vote illegally, because
20:28
Speaker 6: they weren't allowed to vote, because these are non-citizens voting
20:32
Speaker 6: in federal elections, which is a crime. But yet, you'll
20:35
Speaker 6: have the people from 60 Minutes and others, like we
20:38
Speaker 6: talked about on yesterday's show, on Thursday's show, that want
20:42
Speaker 6: to talk about, is it really illegal? Is it just
20:46
Speaker 6: a misdemeanor? Should we be looking the other way on
20:48
Speaker 6: these things? When you give away all of your rights,
20:50
Speaker 6: you'll have none left. We have to uphold the tradition
20:54
Speaker 6: of law and order. If we expect to maintain it,
20:58
Speaker 6: there's no other way. I don't think that's extreme by
21:01
Speaker 6: any sense. But ultimately, this is where we are. This
21:04
Speaker 6: is where it is. There's no other way to do it.
21:08
Speaker 6: And in order for us to have an America that
21:11
Speaker 6: we love and cherish and protect, what are you going
21:14
Speaker 6: to do? You've got to vote. It's the only way.
21:17
Speaker 6: I got one more clip from President Trump. We're going
21:19
Speaker 6: to play that one when we return.
21:21
Speaker 3: Don't go anywhere. I'm Rich Valdez, and it's almost election day.
21:25
Speaker 5: This is America. This is America. He's brown, he's bald,
21:32
Speaker 5: and he's breaking it down.
21:34
Speaker 3: Oh, he's so handsome. What's his name?
21:36
Speaker 5: Rich Valdez.
21:39
Speaker 6: All right, familia, welcome back. We continue with both sides
21:42
Speaker 6: making their case. And of course, we're going to play
21:44
Speaker 6: both sides for you like we always do in the
21:45
Speaker 6: last segment. I played for you a member of the
21:48
Speaker 6: radical left, Leah Goldberg, making her case for why America
21:52
Speaker 6: needs to be radically changed. and El Trumpito de Naldes
21:56
Speaker 6: Magnus making his case for why we can't support people
21:59
Speaker 6: that are affiliated with the biggest enemies that America has.
22:03
Speaker 6: How crazy is that, right? Not crazy at all. But
22:06
Speaker 6: President Trump continued. He was on the campaign trail. He's been,
22:09
Speaker 6: I think, to 29 states in the last several days,
22:13
Speaker 6: in the last week or two. And good for him.
22:16
Speaker 6: I mean, if anybody sells America better than Donald Trump,
22:20
Speaker 6: they'd be hard-pressed to Fool me. I don't think that
22:23
Speaker 6: anybody's doing it as good as Donald Trump. He's got
22:26
Speaker 6: his finger on the pulse of all of these issues. Now,
22:28
Speaker 6: maybe you don't like his style and this and that.
22:30
Speaker 3: All right, great. You can buy somewhere else.
22:32
Speaker 6: But his ability to make the case for America is unmatched,
22:37
Speaker 6: in my opinion. I mean, I think we haven't seen
22:38
Speaker 6: this type of thing since Reagan. Reagan was a professional
22:41
Speaker 6: actor that delivered it probably in a more smooth manner.
22:45
Speaker 6: But Reagan was doing it in a time where things
22:49
Speaker 6: were just as volatile. but not just as crazy. And yeah,
22:54
Speaker 6: they shot at Reagan too, but they missed.
22:57
Speaker 3: And, or they didn't get him, I should say, like
22:59
Speaker 3: he said.
23:01
Speaker 6: The ultimate story here is President Trump, I think, is
23:05
Speaker 6: making an effective case, not because of his showmanship or
23:09
Speaker 6: his brash New York City bravado or his accent and
23:13
Speaker 6: the way he ducks and moves his hands, none of that,
23:16
Speaker 6: but because he's spitting facts.
23:19
Speaker 3: Listen to this.
23:20
Speaker 11: Democrats want to blow all of this up by electing
23:24
Speaker 11: communist jihadists, and the United States Congress will not allow
23:29
Speaker 11: that to happen. We've got some big races tomorrow. I
23:33
Speaker 11: guess some of the voting has already gone on, but
23:35
Speaker 11: tomorrow's election day, more traditional, and we can't let that happen.
23:39
Speaker 11: We have to keep our Congress strong, free. A little
23:44
Speaker 11: bit of apple pie is something very nice about that.
23:47
Speaker 11: We're not looking to have a jihadist be in our Senate.
23:52
Speaker 6: Listen, A, I don't want jihadists in our Senate, and B,
23:55
Speaker 6: who doesn't love apple pie, right? I mean, this guy's
23:58
Speaker 6: talking my language.
24:00
Speaker 8: Go ahead.
24:00
Speaker 11: An example, and I've traveled all across the country, spoken
24:05
Speaker 11: at all of these rallies I've done over the last
24:08
Speaker 11: Two and a half weeks, and America is.
24:11
Speaker 8: Ready to go. They're ready to vote. I hope they're
24:13
Speaker 8: ready to do the right thing.
24:16
Speaker 11: If they vote, because I won the last election, we
24:19
Speaker 11: had record numbers. We won many states in records, Florida, Texas,
24:25
Speaker 11: and so many states. I won almost every state that
24:27
Speaker 11: I went to. I was saying we have the all-time record.
24:30
Speaker 11: But with all of those records, it all doesn't matter
24:34
Speaker 11: if we're going to be foolish and let people that
24:36
Speaker 11: hate our country win an election, because if the people
24:41
Speaker 11: that voted for me and voted in the last election
24:45
Speaker 11: where we had such a great victory, if they go
24:48
Speaker 11: out and vote just a good portion of them, we
24:50
Speaker 11: will win in a landslide. Now, that doesn't happen because
24:54
Speaker 11: usually whoever the sitting president is, Republican or Democrat, good.
25:00
Speaker 8: Or bad, good president, great president, bad.
25:03
Speaker 11: For some reason, the sitting president doesn't win the midterms,
25:07
Speaker 11: but We gave this a very strong shot.
25:13
Speaker 6: He's 100% right. He's out there fighting. He knows that
25:15
Speaker 6: the odds are against him. You just heard him say it, right?
25:19
Speaker 6: Most presidents lose their midterms. That's more presidents than not, right?
25:24
Speaker 6: The media will try and tell you, ignore the history,
25:27
Speaker 6: ignore the facts, ignore the patterns. Trump lost because America
25:31
Speaker 6: hates Trump. Yeah, then explain why he's there. And why
25:35
Speaker 6: after he was impeached twice, they elected him again after
25:39
Speaker 6: they tried to kill the guy.
25:41
Speaker 11: Right?
25:41
Speaker 6: Because the people trying to kill him are not the
25:43
Speaker 6: American people. It's the enemies of the state. And he
25:46
Speaker 6: raises so many good points there, whether you like his
25:48
Speaker 6: delivery or not.
25:50
Speaker 3: He's right. He's right about taxes.
25:52
Speaker 8: Right?
25:52
Speaker 3: The big, beautiful bill. People hated it because it was
25:54
Speaker 3: massive spending. But guess what?
25:57
Speaker 6: It curtailed taxes for a number of people, including people
26:01
Speaker 6: that were tip workers.
26:04
Speaker 3: Right? No tax on tips. Now, I know, I understand.
26:07
Speaker 6: I say that and right away, oh, it's not no
26:09
Speaker 6: tax on tips. Listen, what President Trump proposed and what
26:12
Speaker 6: the House passed are two different things.
26:14
Speaker 3: Understood.
26:15
Speaker 6: But do people have a right to file their taxes
26:20
Speaker 6: and write off some of their tip income and not
26:24
Speaker 6: pay taxes on it?
26:25
Speaker 8: Yes.
26:25
Speaker 6: They are not going to pay taxes on a portion
26:28
Speaker 6: of their tips. They're not going to pay taxes on
26:30
Speaker 6: a portion of their overtime. They're going to be able
26:33
Speaker 6: to write off the interest on an auto loan for
26:37
Speaker 6: a Cars Made in America. These are things that were
26:40
Speaker 6: not possible before. And to sit here and poo-poo that
26:45
Speaker 6: like it's not worth anything to the American barber who's
26:49
Speaker 6: getting a tip, which I used to be, the American
26:51
Speaker 6: bartender like AOC used to be, anybody who's making a
26:57
Speaker 6: tip somewhere and able to write off a portion of
27:00
Speaker 6: their tips, they're going to love that. Let's keep it
27:05
Speaker 6: real here. You know how many people cheat on their
27:07
Speaker 6: taxes because they get tips and cash? Trump creating a
27:12
Speaker 6: system to disincentivize cheating on your taxes? Trump repeatedly speaking
27:19
Speaker 6: about eliminating a federal income tax and replacing it entirely
27:24
Speaker 6: with tariffs? And the left will turn around and say
27:27
Speaker 6: the tariffs are making everything cost more. That's Trump, actually.
27:31
Speaker 3: They're making everything cost more. Maybe that's my radical lefty voice.
27:35
Speaker 9: Come on.
27:36
Speaker 6: It's late at night right now. But I'm not asleep
27:39
Speaker 6: just yet. It's going to take a little bit more
27:41
Speaker 6: than that to fool me. But I want to continue, right?
27:43
Speaker 6: Because Hillary Clinton is out there and she is screaming
27:46
Speaker 6: about taking the country back. Taking it back where? Taking
27:49
Speaker 6: it back to the days of Karl Marx? Absolute insanity.
27:53
Speaker 6: I don't want any part of it. But here's what
27:54
Speaker 6: she had to say. Because like I said, on this show,
27:56
Speaker 6: we'll always give you both sides. I'm playing a clip
27:58
Speaker 6: of Trump. You better believe I'm playing a trip from
28:01
Speaker 6: the left.
28:01
Speaker 3: Listen to this. Ann and I were just talking.
28:03
Speaker 12: We're seeing democratic movement in places that we never could
28:08
Speaker 12: have predicted three months, six months ago. I think if
28:12
Speaker 12: people turn out, and that's really the biggest message that
28:16
Speaker 12: we can all give you, I will say if you
28:19
Speaker 12: turn out and vote and vote your conscience and vote
28:22
Speaker 12: your interests and vote for the end of what we've
28:26
Speaker 12: been living through in these last years, we're going to
28:29
Speaker 12: get our country back. And then we can fight about
28:32
Speaker 12: how we do things together and not how we point
28:35
Speaker 12: fingers and yell and scream and insult each other, which
28:38
Speaker 12: would be so welcome.
28:39
Speaker 3: Oh, it would be so welcome.
28:41
Speaker 6: You're lucky that I didn't prepare to do a whole
28:43
Speaker 6: show on you pointing fingers and yelling and screaming. You know,
28:48
Speaker 6: politicians are so good at trying to point out things.
28:50
Speaker 6: Like the Bible says, you point your finger at somebody,
28:53
Speaker 6: you got three fingers pointing at you, right? And that's
28:56
Speaker 6: the bottom line truth here. Hillary Clinton hasn't been out
28:59
Speaker 6: there blaming everybody else. She's blaming Donald Trump right now
29:02
Speaker 6: for everybody's problems. Do they forget about the problems that
29:05
Speaker 6: we had before Trump was in office that he took
29:07
Speaker 6: a whole four years off? And we had an absolute
29:10
Speaker 6: disaster in the White House named Joe Biden that not
29:13
Speaker 6: even Democrats claim as their own. A guy that was
29:16
Speaker 6: so bad they didn't let him run for reelection. And
29:19
Speaker 6: without anybody ever casting a single vote for Kamala Harris,
29:23
Speaker 6: they made her the candidate for president of the United States.
29:27
Speaker 6: She didn't win so much as a primary. Did we
29:31
Speaker 6: forget all of that? That the American people had no
29:35
Speaker 6: say in choosing Kamala Harris to be president? or that
29:39
Speaker 6: Dom Rickles stunt double Tim Walz to be her vice president?
29:42
Speaker 6: Not a single vote. They were selected, coronated like kings.
29:49
Speaker 6: This isn't England. We don't have kings. We should have
29:53
Speaker 6: had a no kings rally to protest what the Democrats
29:56
Speaker 6: did during that election, forcing Biden out. I don't know
29:59
Speaker 6: if you were here for that one. Do you remember
30:01
Speaker 6: when he said, I'm running for president? And then he
30:05
Speaker 6: came out the next day and he was really angry.
30:07
Speaker 6: He said, I've decided I'm not running for reelection. Senator Harris,
30:12
Speaker 6: I mean, Kamala Harris, Vice President Harris has my full,
30:14
Speaker 6: full support. I remember it like yesterday. An elephant never forgets.
30:20
Speaker 6: Do not be fooled. Did Donald Trump run in a
30:25
Speaker 6: primary back in 2016 against 15 pretty hardcore Republicans that
30:29
Speaker 6: gave him a run for his money? Senator Marco Rubio
30:32
Speaker 6: amongst them. Governor Jeb Bush amongst them. Governor Chris Christie
30:35
Speaker 6: amongst them. These are not wallflowers. Trump earned his right
30:40
Speaker 6: to run. And when he came back, there was a
30:45
Speaker 6: crowded field of people running for president. And he came back.
30:50
Speaker 6: He came back strong and he won fair and square, landslide,
30:53
Speaker 6: winning all seven swing states. So miss me with your
30:58
Speaker 6: take your country back rhetoric, Mrs.
31:00
Speaker 3: Clinton. It was Trump that took the country back.
31:03
Speaker 6: Now, if you want to take it back to where
31:06
Speaker 6: it was when we had the 8% inflation and the
31:09
Speaker 6: $ 5 gas prices, that's up to you. Not something I
31:15
Speaker 6: can support.
31:16
Speaker 3: Anyway, moving along.
31:17
Speaker 6: We're going to continue talking about the election, but we're
31:20
Speaker 6: done with Mrs.
31:20
Speaker 8: Clinton.
31:21
Speaker 6: We're going to do a little bit more on Jamie
31:25
Speaker 6: Raskin because Jamie Raskin, you know him from Congress, the
31:27
Speaker 6: guy that had a brain tumor, was wearing a bandana
31:30
Speaker 6: on his head for a while.
31:31
Speaker 3: His father is Marcus Raskin.
31:33
Speaker 6: He was the head of the Center for Policy Studies,
31:35
Speaker 6: a known communist organization. Of course, now it's unfair for
31:39
Speaker 6: me to say, well, just because his dad was a
31:41
Speaker 6: known communist doesn't mean that he's a communist, right? Because,
31:44
Speaker 6: you know, it'd be unfair to do that. Okay, got it.
31:47
Speaker 3: But when you hear him talk, can we say that
31:49
Speaker 3: he's a known communist then? Taste the soup. This is
31:53
Speaker 3: Jamie Raskin talking about fair elections. This one is a hoot,
31:59
Speaker 3: to say the least.
32:05
Speaker 12: How confident are you that these elections will be carried
32:08
Speaker 12: out fairly and accurately?
32:10
Speaker 8: If the federal government stays out of it.
32:13
Speaker 6: Let's pause that right there. Is this a legitimate question?
32:18
Speaker 6: I'm going to say, yes, it's a legitimate question because
32:21
Speaker 6: Donald Trump, our president, has called elections into question, saying
32:26
Speaker 6: that they're.
32:27
Speaker 8: Rigged, folks.
32:28
Speaker 3: It's a rigged election. And he's not wrong for doing that.
32:32
Speaker 6: This opens the door now for the left to play
32:35
Speaker 6: amongst themselves, right, Kristen Welker and the rest, to ask
32:40
Speaker 6: Congressman Raskin, well, being that Mr. President says it's not
32:45
Speaker 6: a fair election, do you have confidence that this election
32:48
Speaker 6: will be carried out with the utmost of integrity? And
32:52
Speaker 6: now he gets to get on his soapbox and make
32:54
Speaker 6: his big pontifications about how bad you and me are.
32:59
Speaker 9: Let's the state government authorities actually run the elections the
33:04
Speaker 9: way that we always have.
33:05
Speaker 8: We will have free and fair elections.
33:07
Speaker 9: The problem is, as this judge found in a very
33:09
Speaker 9: important ruling, that the Trump administration keeps trying to stick
33:14
Speaker 9: its nose into state electoral administration when it has no
33:18
Speaker 9: constitutional role there. Only Congress could decide we're going to
33:22
Speaker 9: pass a law to allow.
33:24
Speaker 6: Does federal the federal government through the executive branch Do
33:30
Speaker 6: they have any right in enforcing federal election law through
33:38
Speaker 6: whatever means they have lawfully, Mr.
33:40
Speaker 5: Raskin?
33:42
Speaker 6: Or are they supposed to turn to the state police
33:45
Speaker 6: to enforce a congressional election?
33:49
Speaker 9: The post office or the president to get involved in
33:52
Speaker 9: the administration of elections, we have not passed.
33:55
Speaker 6: Let me ask you something, Congressman Raskin. If I am
33:59
Speaker 6: voting by mail and I have a problem in receiving
34:04
Speaker 6: my ballot, should I call my local police department to
34:10
Speaker 6: tell them I haven't gotten my ballot yet? Should I
34:14
Speaker 6: call the Federal Election Commission? That is an organization, an
34:20
Speaker 6: agency that reports to the president because he is the
34:24
Speaker 6: executive branch under the Constitution.
34:29
Speaker 3: Who's right here? I know I'm right. But, you know,
34:31
Speaker 3: just for kicks and giggles.
34:34
Speaker 8: Such a law.
34:34
Speaker 9: The president's got nothing to do with it. So he
34:37
Speaker 9: should go off to Mar-a-Lago and let us have.
34:40
Speaker 8: Mr.
34:40
Speaker 6: Raskin, you're only hating on Mar-a-Lago because you haven't been there.
34:43
Speaker 6: It is a beautiful estate. And now you're just trying
34:46
Speaker 6: to deflect, right? You were just talking about the legality
34:49
Speaker 6: of a mail-in vote. And I'm telling you that if me,
34:51
Speaker 6: John Q. Public, a member of the citizenry, has a
34:55
Speaker 6: problem voting, am I supposed to call the state police
34:57
Speaker 6: in my state?
34:58
Speaker 8: Of course not.
35:00
Speaker 6: Because these things are administered through the Federal Elections Commission, right?
35:04
Speaker 6: They do these things. Of course, there's a State Board
35:06
Speaker 6: of Elections, of course, that you want to deal with
35:08
Speaker 6: because they're the ones issuing your ballot. So you have
35:12
Speaker 6: different and a few ways to go. But if there
35:14
Speaker 6: is a problem with me exercising my right to vote
35:17
Speaker 6: and I feel like my civil rights have been violated,
35:21
Speaker 6: are you saying I don't have a right to a
35:25
Speaker 6: federal claim?
35:25
Speaker 3: Of course I do.
35:27
Speaker 6: So don't make it seem like the federal government and
35:29
Speaker 6: the executive branch has no role in anything. Because that
35:35
Speaker 6: would be ineffective.
35:37
Speaker 3: It's true.
35:37
Speaker 6: The Constitution says it's up to the states to direct
35:41
Speaker 6: the time, the place, and the manner of the election.
35:45
Speaker 6: How the United States Postal Service delivers a ballot is
35:50
Speaker 6: always going to be up to the United States Postal Service.
35:52
Speaker 6: And that does not amount... to an interference in an election,
35:56
Speaker 6: especially when he's trying to get it done fairly.
35:58
Speaker 3: My two cents.
36:00
Speaker 9: A democratic election, you know, he was talking about suspending elections,
36:04
Speaker 9: not having elections.
36:05
Speaker 8: We had elections in the middle of the Civil War.
36:08
Speaker 6: Sir, Trump has never called for the suspension of an
36:12
Speaker 6: election or not having an election.
36:15
Speaker 1: Right?
36:15
Speaker 6: Rhetorically speaking, he's made the case saying, you know, well,
36:19
Speaker 6: we might as well not have elections if we're not
36:21
Speaker 6: going to have elections, that type of thing. But that's
36:23
Speaker 6: not truly calling for the suspension of an election, right?
36:27
Speaker 6: I understand that you want to twist his words.
36:30
Speaker 3: All good. That's what politicians do.
36:32
Speaker 6: But it is a radical idea, a crazy idea, a
36:36
Speaker 6: dangerous idea to think that we could suspend the will
36:39
Speaker 6: of the people, that the Constitution doesn't call for elections
36:44
Speaker 6: to be held on the Tuesday that they specifically enumerate
36:49
Speaker 6: in the Constitution. This is why even people on my
36:52
Speaker 6: side of the aisle Mr. Raskin, I will say that
36:55
Speaker 6: I've argued with. I've had a guy named David Nino Rodriguez,
36:58
Speaker 6: a former boxing champion, great guy. He was on my show.
37:02
Speaker 6: He has an amazing story. He's a very popular YouTuber.
37:05
Speaker 6: And I challenged him to this, right? I had Pat
37:08
Speaker 6: Cash Patel on the show days earlier, had David Nino
37:10
Speaker 6: Garcia on. And I told him, I said, you're suggesting
37:14
Speaker 6: that there, and he says, well, I think that we might,
37:16
Speaker 6: for the first time in American history, see a pause
37:19
Speaker 6: in American elections. I said, how much do you want
37:21
Speaker 6: to bet? You're going to owe me a steak dinner.
37:24
Speaker 6: David Nino Garcia, you owe me a steak dinner. That
37:26
Speaker 6: was from the last election, right?
37:28
Speaker 3: 2024.
37:28
Speaker 6: Now, I recently heard some clips that him and others
37:31
Speaker 6: are out there suggesting it may happen again.
37:33
Speaker 3: It's not going to happen. We will have an election tomorrow. Boom. Period.
37:38
Speaker 5: The end.
37:39
Speaker 6: As long as Christ does not rip through the eastern
37:42
Speaker 6: sky and the rapture doesn't begin, we're having an election.
37:48
Speaker 6: That's 250 years of precedent to back that up. So,
37:52
Speaker 6: Please don't put me in a position where I have
37:54
Speaker 6: to agree with what Raskin is saying because nobody wants
37:57
Speaker 6: to be there. Although I'm happy he's there because he's
37:59
Speaker 6: actually looking at the truth.
38:01
Speaker 8: Elections in the middle of World War II.
38:03
Speaker 9: Why should we not have elections just because Donald Trump
38:05
Speaker 9: is going to get his feelings heard when there's.
38:07
Speaker 6: Well, he's never said that, right? He never said his
38:09
Speaker 6: feelings were heard. Now you're going off the deep end.
38:12
Speaker 6: And if anybody wants to stop an election, it's usually
38:14
Speaker 6: the Democrats because they know they're going to lose. In
38:16
Speaker 6: this case, the odds are in their favor, right?
38:21
Speaker 9: And.
38:22
Speaker 3: They want to run. I'd run a run too if
38:24
Speaker 3: I thought I was an easy win.
38:25
Speaker 8: There's a landslide against him in 2026.
38:28
Speaker 6: All right, listen, I'm not going to refute that. There
38:33
Speaker 6: are going to be some losses on election day tomorrow.
38:37
Speaker 6: But that doesn't mean that there's going to be a
38:39
Speaker 6: complete loss in Congress. That doesn't mean we're going to
38:42
Speaker 6: lose the Senate. Doesn't mean we're going to lose the House.
38:45
Speaker 6: At least it doesn't have to mean that. We can
38:48
Speaker 6: totally pull things around. But the only way that happens
38:52
Speaker 6: is if people get out and vote. What Reagan was
38:54
Speaker 6: talking about, what Trump was talking about.
38:56
Speaker 3: This is it.
38:57
Speaker 6: It is the, I'm taking off. I am calling out sick.
39:01
Speaker 6: I am making sure I call my friends. Everybody, the
39:03
Speaker 6: last 20 people that have texted me on my phone,
39:06
Speaker 6: I'm going to be like, hey, random question. Did you
39:09
Speaker 6: get to vote today? And do you need me to
39:10
Speaker 6: pick you up and take you? Because that, when everybody
39:14
Speaker 6: does that, you're going to see a larger turnout. And
39:17
Speaker 6: that is what we need. Midterm elections, most people go, ah,
39:20
Speaker 6: it's not for president. I'm not even showing up. Democrats
39:23
Speaker 6: bank on that. This is how they win elections typically.
39:27
Speaker 6: They will run in a primary because even less people
39:30
Speaker 6: vote in primaries than midterms. And voila, you get an AOC. Voila,
39:35
Speaker 6: you get Al-Sayed. Voila, you get a Mamdani beating Cuomo.
39:40
Speaker 6: This is how it happens. So come on, ponte la pila.
39:43
Speaker 6: Get those batteries in place. Get to the voting booth tomorrow.
39:47
Speaker 6: I am back with a couple of more things I
39:48
Speaker 6: want to talk about. Keep it locked right here. It's Valdez.
39:50
Speaker 3: You already know.
39:52
Speaker 5: This is America. This is America.
40:19
Speaker 7: President Donald J.
40:22
Speaker 3: Trump, Mr.
40:23
Speaker 12: President, welcome to the program, sir. Well, thank you, Rich,
40:42
Speaker 12: and thank you for everything.
40:43
Speaker 11: I know you very well, and I listen, but I
40:46
Speaker 11: have a lot of people that listen, and they love
40:48
Speaker 11: your show, and I appreciate it very much.
40:51
Speaker 6: With programs like America at Night with Rich Valdez and
40:54
Speaker 6: Donald Trump as a guest, who's going to watch late-night TV?
40:56
Speaker 3: Come on.
40:57
Speaker 11: Who would want to? I want to listen to you, Rich,
40:59
Speaker 11: all the time.
41:02
Speaker 6: All right, amigos, thank you for listening. It's Rich Valdez
41:06
Speaker 6: with you tonight. This is America. We do it every night.
41:09
Speaker 6: And I'm happy to be with you at richvaldez.com for
41:12
Speaker 6: all the additional information. At Rich Valdez on all of
41:15
Speaker 6: the social media. And I want to hear from you guys, right?
41:20
Speaker 6: You just heard President Trump when I had him on
41:22
Speaker 6: saying he wants to listen to me all the time.
41:24
Speaker 6: And I'm always grateful for that. Love playing those clips.
41:27
Speaker 6: But I want to hear from you and you that
41:29
Speaker 6: listen to this program. So I want to open up
41:31
Speaker 6: the phone lines for everybody listening. The number is 877-VALDEZ
41:33
Speaker 6: and the number 1-877-VALDES.
41:39
Speaker 3: And the number one.
41:41
Speaker 6: And I want to go over to, let's see, where
41:44
Speaker 6: do we go? I don't know where we're going, but
41:46
Speaker 6: we're going and we're going fast. Let's get there.
41:51
Speaker 2: Tennessee?
41:52
Speaker 3: All right, I'm all for it. Go for it.
41:55
Speaker 7: Hey, this is JP from Nashville, Tennessee.
41:57
Speaker 3: Hey, JP, what's going on, man?
41:59
Speaker 7: I just saw your post about the cops with the
42:03
Speaker 7: marijuana test.
42:04
Speaker 6: Oh, yeah, that was an interesting one. I put that
42:06
Speaker 6: on my Instagram. That was something that happened here in
42:08
Speaker 6: New York. Suffolk County Police are now swabbing people's mouths
42:13
Speaker 6: in order to detect if they've been using marijuana or
42:17
Speaker 6: fentanyl or cocaine or Xanax or anything else.
42:22
Speaker 7: First of all, it's a terrible idea. It's going to
42:25
Speaker 7: stain your system regardless. No matter what you do, it's
42:28
Speaker 7: going to pop up. So the fact that you can...
42:31
Speaker 7: pull me over, and now you feel like you can
42:34
Speaker 7: drug test me, and now you're going to do what?
42:36
Speaker 7: Take my keys to my car and crush my car?
42:39
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was crazy.
42:40
Speaker 6: They call that civil asset forfeiture, where they take your key,
42:44
Speaker 6: or your car rather, and they crush it like a
42:46
Speaker 6: tin can. And they're doing that, they're trying to make
42:49
Speaker 6: a statement, right? They're trying to scare people and say, look,
42:51
Speaker 6: you better not drive high, you better not be on
42:53
Speaker 6: any drugs, because we now have these seven devices and
42:56
Speaker 6: seven police cars where we're going to get you. To me,
42:59
Speaker 6: the issue became, Is this a civil liberties issue? Not
43:03
Speaker 6: a question of law and order. I think everybody agrees
43:05
Speaker 6: we shouldn't drive high. Like you said, what if you
43:08
Speaker 6: went to a Grateful Dead concert smoking weed yesterday and,
43:11
Speaker 6: you know, today you're not high, but the marijuana is
43:14
Speaker 6: still in your system and you might test positive.
43:16
Speaker 3: Then what?
43:16
Speaker 1: Right.
43:17
Speaker 3: That's exactly what's going on.
43:18
Speaker 7: Are you paying off my car note?
43:20
Speaker 5: You're right.
43:20
Speaker 3: Who's paying it off?
43:21
Speaker 7: On top of that, you know, what else? What else?
43:25
Speaker 7: Like there's too many different ways. This is a problem
43:28
Speaker 7: and it needs to be checked. Anybody from New York,
43:30
Speaker 7: I need to put a stop to this. Who's ever
43:32
Speaker 7: in office, you need to raise up out of this
43:34
Speaker 7: or even put in this on paper to come out
43:36
Speaker 7: to somebody. This is a terrible idea, and it really
43:39
Speaker 7: needs to be addressed.
43:41
Speaker 3: 100% right.
43:42
Speaker 6: Thank you for your call, JP, from Nashville, Tennessee. And listen, man,
43:46
Speaker 6: I'm in agreement with you. I don't want to see
43:48
Speaker 6: this law go away, per se. I just want to
43:51
Speaker 6: make sure that they have some limits on it. Don't
43:54
Speaker 6: tell me that because... you know, this granny that has
43:57
Speaker 6: been prescribed a gummy with marijuana in it to sleep
44:01
Speaker 6: by her doctor, because a lot of doctors are prescribing
44:04
Speaker 6: cannabis now, and she's going to get a DWI because
44:08
Speaker 6: she took a gummy last night to sleep, but the
44:10
Speaker 6: effects have worn off, but it shows in her system. Now,
44:13
Speaker 6: I know somebody's going to say, well, listen, Rich, you're
44:15
Speaker 6: not pulling over the 80-year-old abuelita, the grandma. If she's
44:19
Speaker 6: not swerving on the road, she's not getting pulled over. See,
44:22
Speaker 6: that's not the point to me. The point is we
44:24
Speaker 6: have to have laws that benefit the people, right? This
44:27
Speaker 6: is a government of the people, for the people, by
44:28
Speaker 6: the people, not a government for the government. And to me,
44:32
Speaker 6: that is the key distinction here. So it's imperative that
44:35
Speaker 6: we get this right. And we say, no, you want
44:38
Speaker 6: to do your gummies? Weed is legal in your state.
44:40
Speaker 6: Then go right ahead and do your gummies. But guess what?
44:43
Speaker 6: When you're driving, you can't be high. And if we
44:46
Speaker 6: test you, you're going to have a problem if you're
44:49
Speaker 6: over this limit. But if this test can only show
44:53
Speaker 6: that you at some point in your life, in the
44:55
Speaker 6: last 30 days, in the last month, have taken a gummy,
44:59
Speaker 6: have been around marijuana some way, somehow, and you can't
45:03
Speaker 6: actually improve that there's an active level of this substance
45:06
Speaker 6: in their bloodstream, impairing them, intoxicating them, influencing them negatively
45:12
Speaker 6: as they drive, then I got news for you. You
45:16
Speaker 6: don't have a case. I know a guy who had
45:19
Speaker 6: a heart attack. His doctor said, you cannot get excited
45:23
Speaker 6: about anything. You've got to keep your heart rate low.
45:25
Speaker 6: They've given him medicine to do that. And they said,
45:27
Speaker 6: if you get panicky, anxiety, angry, whatever it is, here
45:31
Speaker 6: are Xanax that you can take to calm yourself down.
45:35
Speaker 6: So you mean to tell me. Now, I understand most
45:37
Speaker 6: people that take Xanax, it says it right on their bottle.
45:41
Speaker 6: Do not drive a motor vehicle while you're doing this.
45:44
Speaker 6: But I had somebody challenge me and say, look, I
45:46
Speaker 6: have a prescription for Xanax and there's nowhere on this
45:48
Speaker 6: bottle that says I can't drive while I'm on it. Now,
45:50
Speaker 6: I can't imagine that. I once was given a Xanax
45:53
Speaker 6: by my doctor, and I felt like I drank 40
45:55
Speaker 6: ounces of old English malt.
45:57
Speaker 3: Liquor really, really fast. That's how quickly it was. I
46:00
Speaker 3: was giggling and everything.
46:01
Speaker 6: So, yeah, trust and believe that that stuff is making
46:04
Speaker 6: you feel impaired. I probably wasn't even walking, let alone driving.
46:09
Speaker 6: But my point is this is a legitimate question for people.
46:14
Speaker 6: People are allowed to take medicine. And you should be
46:18
Speaker 6: allowed to drive. These are rights that we have. The
46:20
Speaker 6: whole privilege thing is something I hope goes to the
46:22
Speaker 6: Constitution one day, to the Supreme Court, rather, to be
46:26
Speaker 6: judged as a constitutional question.
46:28
Speaker 3: But lo and behold, I.
46:31
Speaker 6: Agree with you that this rule, this law, this enforcement
46:35
Speaker 6: has to have a floor and a ceiling. Between this
46:38
Speaker 6: limit and this limit is what is going to get
46:40
Speaker 6: you in trouble.
46:41
Speaker 8: Otherwise.
46:42
Speaker 6: toss it out the window it's not working and that's
46:44
Speaker 6: why they're not using it to make their case in
46:46
Speaker 6: court they're using other things like the the officer's ability
46:50
Speaker 6: to determine sobriety and whatever you know and hopefully a
46:53
Speaker 6: blood test that'll make their case a lot more solid
46:57
Speaker 6: this uh this test is a gimmick more than anything
46:59
Speaker 6: i think it was good pr for the um uh
47:02
Speaker 6: the suffolk county police anyway let us continue i want
47:08
Speaker 6: to go to my buddy todd todd johnson Todd Johnson
47:11
Speaker 6: is a candidate in Pennsylvania. And he's in the Philly
47:16
Speaker 6: area where my buddy Mark Levin is from, Cheltenham. And
47:19
Speaker 6: he's going to join us straight ahead.
47:20
Speaker 3: Don't go anywhere.
47:22
Speaker 5: This is America. This is America.
47:36
Speaker 11: All right, Flamingo.
47:46
Speaker 4: Welcome back. Early voting is underway in Pennsylvania, and one
47:50
Speaker 4: of the people that's very familiar to this process, Pastor
47:53
Speaker 4: Todd Johnson, he's on the ballot, and he's on with
47:56
Speaker 4: us right now. Pastor, welcome.
47:58
Speaker 2: Thank you for having me, Rich. It's an honor.
48:01
Speaker 4: You bet, brother. Always good to hear from you. Now,
48:04
Speaker 4: let's talk about the state of affairs in Pennsylvania. There's
48:07
Speaker 4: a lot of elections across the country with the midterms
48:09
Speaker 4: going on. Talk to me about what's happening in Pennsylvania.
48:12
Speaker 13: In Pennsylvania, we have several state House and state Senate
48:16
Speaker 13: races going on. And more importantly, we have a gubernatorial
48:20
Speaker 13: race going on between which, as you know, our current
48:27
Speaker 13: governor is Josh Shapiro, and he's running against Stacey Garrity,
48:31
Speaker 13: who's currently our state treasurer, and she's the endorsed candidate
48:35
Speaker 13: for the Republican Party. So that is the biggest race
48:40
Speaker 13: going on right now in Pennsylvania, as well as we
48:43
Speaker 13: have a slim margin in the state Senate. We have,
48:48
Speaker 13: I think it's 27 to 23 in terms of Republican
48:52
Speaker 13: and Democrat. So that could be flipped because there are
48:56
Speaker 13: a lot of racists that are in contention.
48:59
Speaker 2: As well as our statehouse, which we have a slim margin.
49:04
Speaker 4: So talk to me about what's expected, at least from
49:08
Speaker 4: your perspective. I know Shapiro has a stronghold on things.
49:11
Speaker 4: Do you think he comes out victorious here?
49:14
Speaker 2: I hope not.
49:14
Speaker 13: But again, the polls right now are showing that he
49:19
Speaker 13: has a, an 8%, 9% margin. Last month, he had
49:26
Speaker 13: a 13% margin. So that has narrowed. So we're hoping
49:30
Speaker 13: that the trend will continue over these next 13 days.
49:36
Speaker 13: So again, we're hopeful that Stacey, she's making a very
49:39
Speaker 13: good search near the end of her campaign. And so
49:45
Speaker 13: all things are open right now. So we're not making
49:50
Speaker 13: any predictions. We're just hoping for the best.
49:52
Speaker 4: Now, Pastor Todd Johnson, I know that you yourself are
49:57
Speaker 4: in a race. Talk to me about that.
49:59
Speaker 13: Yes, I'm running for the state Senate, District 4. I'm
50:03
Speaker 13: running against an entrenched incumbent who is left of left.
50:08
Speaker 13: He has been in office for about 12 years now.
50:12
Speaker 13: His name is Art Haywood. And I debated with him
50:15
Speaker 13: last night at the NAACP in Sheltonham Township.
50:19
Speaker 2: So that we debated. This is our third debate that
50:22
Speaker 2: we've carried.
50:23
Speaker 13: So I'm in a really tough district because it includes
50:26
Speaker 13: Philadelphia and a portion of Montgomery County. So, again, it's
50:31
Speaker 13: a really tough race because in Philadelphia, the voter registration is.
50:35
Speaker 2: Eight to one.
50:36
Speaker 13: Democrat to Republican. So we've been fighting every step of
50:39
Speaker 13: the way. We've raised some money. So we really are
50:44
Speaker 13: hopeful that towards the end, we will make a really
50:47
Speaker 13: good surge because every vote that comes from me is
50:50
Speaker 13: also going to be a vote for the up ballot
50:53
Speaker 13: for Stacey Garrity.
50:55
Speaker 4: Now, word on the street is that you did really
50:58
Speaker 4: well in the debate last night.
50:59
Speaker 3: Tell us more.
51:00
Speaker 4: I did.
51:01
Speaker 13: I called him out on several occasions for his voting record.
51:06
Speaker 13: And I also called him out to the anti-Semitism that
51:11
Speaker 13: we see in the Democratic Party. I asked him, would
51:16
Speaker 13: he refute that? Would he stand with Israel? He did
51:20
Speaker 13: not commit. I also asked him about defunding the police.
51:24
Speaker 13: And he also has been protesting ICE. And I said
51:28
Speaker 13: to him, do you want less police on the street? So,
51:31
Speaker 13: you know, you want public safety as an issue. He
51:33
Speaker 13: would not answer. And he got stone faced at one point.
51:37
Speaker 13: And it really played well because the people who were
51:40
Speaker 13: there at the debate got a chance to see a
51:43
Speaker 13: contrast between what they've been voting for and what the
51:46
Speaker 13: alternative could be.
51:48
Speaker 7: Of course.
51:48
Speaker 3: And what he has to offer.
51:50
Speaker 8: Right.
51:50
Speaker 2: Which is which is a nothing burger. More taxes.
51:55
Speaker 3: Talk to us.
51:57
Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah.
51:57
Speaker 4: The same old usual suspects doing the same old usual stuff. Now,
52:01
Speaker 4: Pastor Todd Johnson, I want you to tell me a
52:03
Speaker 4: little bit about, you mentioned anti-Semitism and, of course, the
52:05
Speaker 4: tax and spend liberalism that everybody's up against. But when
52:09
Speaker 4: it comes to the anti-Semitism, to me, this is a
52:11
Speaker 4: bigger problem of, I think, hate permeating our society a
52:17
Speaker 4: little bit more than it used to, as well as
52:20
Speaker 4: just general godlessness becoming more popular.
52:24
Speaker 3: Your thoughts?
52:25
Speaker 2: It is.
52:26
Speaker 13: We see that moving trend when we've been going door-to-door
52:30
Speaker 13: knocking on and campaigning, we've seen a lot of hatred,
52:34
Speaker 13: not only for our current president, but we see a
52:37
Speaker 13: lot of hatred for America as a whole. So they
52:41
Speaker 13: have been capitalizing on this current hatred for the country
52:45
Speaker 13: and the constitution and for our commander in chief. So
52:49
Speaker 13: they have been fueling that. The Democrats have been fueling
52:53
Speaker 13: that type of hatred because that drives people out to
52:56
Speaker 13: the polls. But again, we've been trying to run a
52:59
Speaker 13: campaign where we express love, understanding, compassion. We've also been
53:06
Speaker 13: running a campaign where we try to get people to see, hey,
53:09
Speaker 13: you've been voting Democrat for 70 years in Philadelphia.
53:12
Speaker 2: What have you gotten for your vote?
53:15
Speaker 13: And they can't point to anything that they've gotten. The
53:19
Speaker 13: neighborhoods have gotten worse. Crime is getting worse. Public safety
53:24
Speaker 13: is a big issue. So again, with all these things
53:27
Speaker 13: going on, Rich, we have seen that Some people who
53:31
Speaker 13: are staunch Democrats and some who are kind of soft
53:34
Speaker 13: Democrats have been turning around. I had a lady last
53:37
Speaker 13: night at the NAACP as I was walking out. She said,
53:41
Speaker 13: I never wrote a Republican before, but I'm going to
53:43
Speaker 13: vote for you.
53:46
Speaker 9: Nice.
53:46
Speaker 2: It was amazing.
53:47
Speaker 4: Folks, we're on with Pastor Todd Johnson, running for the
53:50
Speaker 4: state Senate, representing Cheltenham Township in Philadelphia. Now, Pastor Todd,
53:56
Speaker 4: talk to me about the other races. I know you're
53:58
Speaker 4: following the politics across the country. There's a lot of
54:01
Speaker 4: races from Texas with Tallarico to Michigan with El Sayed.
54:06
Speaker 4: We've got the governor's race in New York with Kathy Hochul.
54:08
Speaker 4: Talk to me about some of those races, you know,
54:10
Speaker 4: how you handicap them from your perspective, from where you are.
54:13
Speaker 13: From where I'm sitting in the great state, our great
54:16
Speaker 13: Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, I have seen a shift in the atmosphere.
54:21
Speaker 13: We're hopeful that Byron Donalds will emerge as the victor
54:26
Speaker 13: in Florida.
54:27
Speaker 2: Yeah, no question. Yeah, the races across the state.
54:31
Speaker 13: We hope that John James is successful in Michigan. So again,
54:36
Speaker 13: we're seeing an emergence of minorities who are running for
54:42
Speaker 13: high office. Stacey Garrity came to my headquarters last month
54:47
Speaker 13: and we drove her around the Hispanic and Black communities
54:52
Speaker 13: because a lot of times those communities don't see candidates
54:56
Speaker 13: from the Republican Party and what they have to offer.
54:58
Speaker 13: So We had a chance to take her around Philadelphia
55:02
Speaker 13: and portions of Montgomery County. So again, I'm hopeful that
55:06
Speaker 13: other candidates around the country will take that formula and
55:10
Speaker 13: go to places where they've been written off. Oh, we
55:12
Speaker 13: can't win in that district or we can't win in that.
55:15
Speaker 13: Go anyway and show your face to the people and
55:18
Speaker 13: let the people know that there is an alternative and
55:20
Speaker 13: that there is a better way than what they've been
55:23
Speaker 13: offered by the Democratic Party.
55:24
Speaker 4: Now, Pastor Dodd, final point to you. I want to
55:27
Speaker 4: ask you, um, Todd Johnson, is this. There are people
55:30
Speaker 4: that are going to go to the polls, whether it's
55:32
Speaker 4: now in early voting or in the next couple of days,
55:36
Speaker 4: in the next week and a half, two weeks. And
55:39
Speaker 4: you've been out there pressing the flesh, having the debates,
55:44
Speaker 4: knocking on the doors. There are people that are listening
55:46
Speaker 4: to this that have to go and vote. And many
55:48
Speaker 4: of them are saying, I don't want to go vote.
55:50
Speaker 4: I don't like this war in Iran. I don't like
55:52
Speaker 4: having to pay more for gas. I don't like what's
55:55
Speaker 4: going on. Trump said no new wars. What do you
55:57
Speaker 4: say to those people?
55:59
Speaker 13: I say to all of those people, your vote counts
56:01
Speaker 13: and your vote is your voice. So that if you
56:04
Speaker 13: want a voice in the democratic process or a democracy,
56:08
Speaker 13: if you want a voice in our constitutional republic, go
56:11
Speaker 13: out and vote.
56:12
Speaker 2: You owe it to yourself.
56:13
Speaker 13: You owe it to those who went before you and
56:16
Speaker 13: some of them who sacrificed their very lives to vote.
56:19
Speaker 13: You owe it to them and you owe it to
56:21
Speaker 13: your children and grandchildren and nieces and nephews and coworkers
56:24
Speaker 13: and neighbors. You owe it not just to yourself, but
56:27
Speaker 13: to all the people who you come in contact with
56:30
Speaker 13: to go out and.
56:31
Speaker 2: To vote because your vote is your voice.
56:34
Speaker 13: It's one thing to bicker and complain, but it's another
56:37
Speaker 13: thing to go out and actually vote for the candidate
56:39
Speaker 13: of your choice. And so I would urge everyone who's
56:42
Speaker 13: listening to this program, if you had to do by
56:44
Speaker 13: mail-in ballot, absentee ballot, or if you want to go
56:48
Speaker 13: to the polls and vote in person, please, please, madam, please, sir,
56:52
Speaker 13: go out and vote. And if you don't have a
56:53
Speaker 13: way to get out to vote, call someone to come
56:56
Speaker 13: and pick you up and take you to vote, if
56:58
Speaker 13: that's the case.
56:58
Speaker 3: Outstanding.
56:59
Speaker 4: Pastor Todd Johnson, let everybody know how they can find
57:02
Speaker 4: you and help you out.
57:03
Speaker 2: Yes. You can go to toddjohnsonforsenate.com. That's toddjohnsonforsenate.com.
57:09
Speaker 13: And when you go on that site, it'll guide you
57:11
Speaker 13: to if you want to make a contribution or if
57:13
Speaker 13: you want to volunteer your time to knock on doors,
57:16
Speaker 13: it'll direct you to where you would like to go.
57:18
Speaker 13: But I want to thank you, Rich, for this opportunity
57:21
Speaker 13: as we look upward and onward to our election.
57:24
Speaker 4: Amen to that, brother. Godspeed to you, Pastor Todd Johnson.
57:26
Speaker 4: Thanks for the call. Thanks for the visit. And good
57:29
Speaker 4: luck with the election.
57:30
Speaker 2: Thank you. You have a blessed day.
57:33
Speaker 6: You too, Pastor. Thank you so much. And amigos, this is, again,
57:37
Speaker 6: people have been out there casting their votes. This is
57:40
Speaker 6: the fight of all fights. How are we going to
57:43
Speaker 6: end up? Where does this go? I think the answer
57:46
Speaker 6: lies with each of us, right? What are we willing
57:48
Speaker 6: to do? How are we going to do it? Are
57:50
Speaker 6: we going to get to those polls? Are we going
57:51
Speaker 6: to turn out in record number? Or are we going
57:53
Speaker 6: to have a Democrat Congress, maybe a Republican Senate, multiple
57:59
Speaker 6: impeachments of Donald Trump stifling his ability to do anything domestically,
58:04
Speaker 6: and he's just going to continue with his foreign policy
58:06
Speaker 6: because Congress doesn't dictate foreign policy. And that may very
58:10
Speaker 6: likely be the case. If people don't turn.
58:13
Speaker 3: Out and vote.
58:15
Speaker 6: This is why I say you got to stand for something.
58:17
Speaker 6: Reagan said it best. We have to be informed patriots.
58:20
Speaker 6: We got to know what we're talking about. Know what
58:22
Speaker 6: we're voting for. Because if we don't stand for something.
58:25
Speaker 6: We'll fall for anything. And the only thing necessary for
58:29
Speaker 6: evil to triumph. Is for good people like you to
58:31
Speaker 6: sit there and do nothing. So do something. You know
58:35
Speaker 6: what to do. It's election day tomorrow. I'll be back
58:38
Speaker 6: tomorrow night. Giving you the play by play on the
58:40
Speaker 6: results that are in. We're doing the show a little
58:42
Speaker 6: bit later tomorrow night at 10 p.m. So hasta la proxima.
58:46
Speaker 3: Take care. Good night. And God bless you, America. I'm
58:48
Speaker 3: Rich Valdez, and this is America.
58:55
Speaker 5: This is America.
59:00
Speaker 8: Thank you.
59:33
Speaker 3: Thank you.
