• 0:36
  Speaker 2: chance to finally hear this guy's voice. And he talks
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: about Tyler Robinson, and it sure sounds like Tyler Robinson
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: murdered Charlie Kirk. All the details on that coming up. Hopefully,
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: we can put some conspiracy theories to rest in the process. Also,
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: of course, we're going to talk about what the president
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: of the United States is up to.
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: He just fired a which is kind of fun. These
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: are Democrats.
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: And of course, Democrats are freaking out about it. And
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: Graham Plattner, is he going to actually drop out of
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: the race? He hasn't officially done it yet.
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: What the hell's going on there? We've got a lot
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: more to get to. Coming up on this edition of Vince,
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: also we'll be joined by the.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: Great Ned Ryan, who is going to talk to us
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: a little bit about elections and about what makes America
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: so great. We've got so much to talk about. It's
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: all ahead on this edition of Vince. But first, I
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: got to tell you about quints. Vince for Quince. One
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: thing I love about summer is how effortless everything feels.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: You get the slower mornings, perhaps longer days, outfits that
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: don't require the overthinking. Now I keep reaching for the easy,
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: comfortable pieces. And that's exactly why Quince has become my go-to.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: I love Quince.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: They're all about well-made essentials that turn into the staples
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: you wear on repeat all season long. They're 100% European
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: linen pants and shirts are breathable, versatile, and incredibly easy
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: to style. starting at just $ 34. I also love their t-shirts.
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: Very soft, soft.
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: You wear them all day long, feel great in them.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Lightweight cotton sweaters are awesome too when the temperatures dip
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: at night. What really stands out is the value. Quince
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: offers pieces that are 50 to 80% less than similar
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: brands by working directly with ethical factories and skipping the middlemen.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: It makes it really easy when I walk into my
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: closet and I'm looking for something to wear.
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: What am I going to wear today? Then I grab
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: the Quince. The Quince is great. This is a Quince shirt, actually.
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: This is a phenomenal shirt.

  Speaker 3: Is Canada somebody's thing? Do people do that? I'm just curious.
• 2:56
  Speaker 5: Canada.
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: I've heard of it. Today, let's talk about what happened.
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: Yesterday in Utah at that all-important murder trial for Tyler
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: Robinson because we're trying to get some justice here for
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: the murder of Charlie Kirk, for the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: And I can't believe we're approaching a year since that occurred.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: It was September 10th of last year.
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: And....
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: Finally, there was a lot of haggling in the court
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: about whether or not this video would be played. Now,
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: by now you likely know, considering you and I have
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: been following the details, that Lance Twiggs, the furry, transgender, whatever,
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: boyfriend of Tyler Robinson, sat down with authorities very quickly
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: upon Tyler Robinson's capture and discussed all of this and
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: talked about what he knew and when he knew it. Now,
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: that video, of course, has been available to be used
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: as evidence in this trial, which is, of course, why
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: they recorded it in the first place. And in the
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: course of the interview, they gave him some limited immunity
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: so that he couldn't be prosecuted for any of the
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: statements that he gave in the course of this conversation.
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: But the reason that was haggling in the courtroom was
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: the defense, that would be Tyler Robinson's lawyers, were insisting
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: that the video contained these sort of distant confessions by
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: a third party that essentially Lance Twiggs would be confessing
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: on behalf of Tyler Robinson to the murder, and they
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: didn't want that to be playing out in this pretrial hearing.
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: They said, it's going to corrupt the jury pool.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: Well, Erica Kirk and the state prosecutors fought very hard
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: for transparency, said, we need this video to be public.
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: We need people to see it, to hear it.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: This is really important for trust in the judicial process
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: and for the truth to get out.
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: And in the end, they prevailed.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: This video appearing for the first time in public, you
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: get a chance to hear Twiggy's voice. And here's some
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: of the key moments in all of this. I want
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: to thank Nick Sorter for doing a great job of
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: capturing some of the times throughout this testimony.
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: But let's go to cut four.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: This is Lance Twiggs outlining how Tyler Robinson asked him
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: if he could borrow a Dremel tool. And this was
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: so that he could engrave messages on bullets.
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: Sound familiar? Cut four, watch this.
• 5:30
  Speaker 6: He asks you here, remember how I was engraving bullets?
• 5:32
  Speaker 6: Was he engraving bullets before this?
• 5:35
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't remember.
• 5:36
  Speaker 7: Exactly when, but he had said he was planning to
• 5:39
  Speaker 7: go hunting with his family. And he asked me if
• 5:44
  Speaker 7: we had a Dremel, because he said he wanted to
• 5:47
  Speaker 7: create messages on bullets. And I just told him where
• 5:52
  Speaker 7: a Dremel was, and I told him to make sure
• 5:55
  Speaker 7: he doesn't set off a bullet on accident in the house.
• 5:59
  Speaker 7: But I didn't really think about it until then.
• 6:02
  Speaker 6: How long before September 10th was this that he asked
• 6:07
  Speaker 6: about the Dremel?
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: I don't remember exactly.
• 6:10
  Speaker 7: Because he'd been talking about the hunting-slash-camping trip for a
• 6:16
  Speaker 7: couple months, but I don't remember when he was specifically
• 6:21
  Speaker 7: asking to engrave the bullets.
• 6:24
  Speaker 5: So are we talking like a year before? Oh, no,
• 6:28
  Speaker 5: not that long.
• 6:28
  Speaker 7: It would have been, I'd say, at most a month
• 6:30
  Speaker 7: before this was when he was asking.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: A month before.
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: A month before.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: So he's asking for a Dremel. He's starting to engrave bullets. And,
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: of course, the bullets that were found at the scene
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: contained a bunch of engraved messages that were all designed
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: to be attacks on Charlie Kirk, calling him a fascist,
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: telling him to catch the bullets. In fact, some of
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: the testimony yesterday, expert testimony on what was engraved on
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: the bullets, I've got some of the video here.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: Take a look at this.
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: This is the bullet engraving element.
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: What are we looking at here on Exhibit 19?
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: This is the cartridge case that was recovered from the gun.
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: And what position was this in, in the gun?
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: This was the, or this is what was in the chamber.
• 7:19
  Speaker 5: Okay.
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: In the chamber, meaning that's where a cartridge is before it's,
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: or when it is fired, correct?
• 7:27
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: Do you notice an inscription or an etching on this
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: cartridge case?
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: Yes, I do.
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: Will you read what that says?
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: Yes. Notice this bulge.
• 7:40
  Speaker 5: And if we can go down to.
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: Page two of the exhibit, will you read what this says?
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: O-W-O, what's?
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: And to page three?
• 7:51
  Speaker 8: This.
• 7:52
  Speaker 4: And question mark, correct?
• 7:54
  Speaker 9: Yes, question mark.
• 7:54
  Speaker 5: All right, if.
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: We go to States Exhibit 20.
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: They're going through the bullet engravings here.
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: So you can see all these messages and throughout they
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: have the other messages.
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: Hey, fascist catch is here. Here's the hey, fascist. And
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: then a catch. And then there's one with a bunch
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: of arrows written on it.
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: So a bunch of messages for the victim. A bunch
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: of deranged messages for the victim here. And Lance Twiggs goes, yeah,
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: Tyler Robinson was engraving all of these bullets. And sure enough,
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: those bullets were all found at the scene. So this is, look,
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: as we go through this, of course, this is completely
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: damning testimony for Tyler Robinson, every element of this. Now,
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: another piece of this is, remember, after the assassination, we
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: now know, we've known for some time that Tyler Robinson
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: texted Lance Twiggs and indicated to him that he needed
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: to look under his keyboard inside of the apartment that
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: they shared. And that's where he found a note that
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: Tyler Robinson had left behind, indicating that he had assassinated
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: Charlie Kirk. That's what the note says. So let me
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: take you back a little bit in time first. This
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: is last September, cut 11. Investigators were discussing this letter
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: that Tyler Robinson had left behind for Lance Twiggs.
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: Take a look at that.
• 9:29
  Speaker 10: The roommate. Police... interviewed Robinson's roommate, a biological male who
• 9:37
  Speaker 10: was involved in a romantic relationship with Robinson. The roommate
• 9:42
  Speaker 10: told police that the roommate received messages from Robinson about
• 9:46
  Speaker 10: the shooting, and he did provide those messages to police.
• 9:51
  Speaker 10: On September 10, 2025, the roommate received a text message
• 9:56
  Speaker 10: from Robinson which said, drop what you're doing, look under
• 10:01
  Speaker 10: my keyboard. The roommate looked under the keyboard and found
• 10:05
  Speaker 10: a note that stated, quote, I had the opportunity to
• 10:09
  Speaker 10: take out Charlie Kirk and I'm going to take it.
• 10:13
  Speaker 10: Police found a photograph of this note. The following exchange
• 10:18
  Speaker 10: was The text exchange then took place. After reading the note,
• 10:23
  Speaker 10: the roommate responded, What? You're joking, right? Robinson, I am
• 10:30
  Speaker 10: still okay, my love, but am stuck in Orem for
• 10:33
  Speaker 10: a little while longer yet. Shouldn't be long until I
• 10:37
  Speaker 10: can come home, but I gotta grab my rifle still.
• 10:41
  Speaker 10: To be honest, I had hoped to keep this secret
• 10:43
  Speaker 10: till I died of old age. I am sorry to
• 10:46
  Speaker 10: involve you. Roommate, you weren't the one who did it, right? Robinson,
• 10:53
  Speaker 10: I am, I am, I'm sorry.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: I am, meaning he killed Charlie Kirk, he says in
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: those text messages. Lance Twiggs confirmed he did find that
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: note when he spoke to investigators. Here's the video for
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: the first time seen yesterday. Cut five, watch.
• 11:16
  Speaker 6: You talked about the note that he left I WANT
• 11:20
  Speaker 6: TO BRING THIS UP AND I SHOULD SAY THAT THESE
• 11:23
  Speaker 6: TEXT MESSAGES THAT WE'VE BEEN LOOKING AT HERE ARE BATES
• 11:29
  Speaker 6: NUMBER 54.
• 11:29
  Speaker 5: THE NOTES.
• 11:35
  Speaker 6: HAVE BEEN TITLED 16.3, THE NOTE, AND THIS IS BATES
• 11:41
  Speaker 6: NUMBER 58.
• 11:42
  Speaker 5: DO YOU RECOGNIZE THAT ON THE SCREEN THERE? NEW SPEAKER YEAH.
• 11:46
  Speaker 5: NEW SPEAKER WHAT DO YOU RECOGNIZE IT AS?
• 11:50
  Speaker 7: That was the note under his keyboard that he was
• 11:53
  Speaker 7: referring to in the first text of that chain.
• 11:57
  Speaker 5: So where did you find this?
• 11:59
  Speaker 7: On his desk underneath his computer keyboard.
• 12:07
  Speaker 5: And I assume you read it? Yeah. And then what
• 12:17
  Speaker 5: did you do with it after you read it?
• 12:20
  Speaker 7: I believe I just put it back down on the
• 12:22
  Speaker 7: desk after I took a picture of it.
• 12:23
  Speaker 5: Okay.
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: And again, the time you read it was probably around
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: 11 o'clock or so on the 10th?
• 12:29
  Speaker 5: Yes. The night of September 10th? Mm-hmm.
• 12:35
  Speaker 10: All right.
• 12:36
  Speaker 5: And did you ever see that again after you placed
• 12:37
  Speaker 5: it back on his desk? No, I don't think I did.
• 12:42
  Speaker 5: And that was a desk in his bedroom? Yes. And
• 12:45
  Speaker 5: that's a separate bedroom than your bedroom?
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: Confirming the note, confirming all of it.
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: I mean, just what the investigators have said, hopefully putting
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: to rest any sort of conspiracy theories around this. And
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: in fact, the note itself, for a brief moment, appeared
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: on screen yesterday during the televised proceedings in the trial. Now,
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: as I understand it, the judge had not intended for
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: this note to be seen publicly, but sure enough, it was.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: It was on screen for a moment before the camera
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: operator panned away. Here is that note, by the way.
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: This is what it looks like.
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: It says here, Luna, that's apparently Tyler Robinson's nickname for
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: Lance Twiggs. If you are reading this per my text,
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: then I am so sorry. I left the house this
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: morning on a mission and I sent an auto text.
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: I'm likely dead or facing a lengthy prison sentence. I
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: had the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk and I
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: took it. I don't know if I will or have succeeded,
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: but I had hoped to make it home to you.
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: I wish we could have lived in, and then that's
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: the end of the note, visible note.
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: So is there any indication that Tyler Robinson killed Charlie Kirk?
• 14:01
  Speaker 11: Yes.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: Endless indications that Tyler Robinson assassinated Charlie Kirk, including in
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: a handwritten note. No doubt it's possible, of course, to
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: compare the handwriting to his actual handwriting, which there has
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: to be lots of. So that's some of the, again,
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: bombshell evidence presented yesterday. And this is just in the
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: pretrial hearing. Just in the pretrial hearing. So we have
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: the note. What else do we have? We also have Robinson.
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: Here he is talking about Sorry, Lance Twiggs is talking
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: about how he saw Robinson at home at September 11th.
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: Cut seven here.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: That was the next day in which Tyler Robinson once
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: again admitted to killing Charlie Kirk.
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: Cut seven. Take a look.
• 14:59
  Speaker 6: September 11th. What time did or did you see Tyler
• 15:06
  Speaker 6: on September 11th?
• 15:08
  Speaker 5: Yes. When did you first see him on September 11th?
• 15:10
  Speaker 5: So this is the day after the shooting? Yeah, I
• 15:12
  Speaker 5: saw him when I woke up.
• 15:15
  Speaker 7: Like I said, he was up and around doing a
• 15:18
  Speaker 7: lot of stuff around the house. And then I think
• 15:24
  Speaker 7: I saw him after that message where I said I'll
• 15:28
  Speaker 7: come home and say I'm doing laundry because I didn't
• 15:30
  Speaker 7: want him going to my parents' house right then when
• 15:34
  Speaker 7: he said there was probably cops outside.
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: So I.
• 15:38
  Speaker 7: went back home, and it was just him there, and
• 15:41
  Speaker 7: I said bye to him, and then he drove off.
• 15:43
  Speaker 5: So I just went.
• 15:44
  Speaker 7: Back to my parents' house.
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: So he acted erratically. Was he pacing? Was he just
• 15:53
  Speaker 5: sitting down, relaxing? No, he was walking around a lot.
• 15:57
  Speaker 5: And that's within the home? Mm-hmm. And did he talk
• 16:03
  Speaker 5: about what he had done? Didn't go into detail.
• 16:08
  Speaker 7: I just asked him in person if what he said
• 16:11
  Speaker 7: was true than I before, and he said it was.
• 16:15
  Speaker 7: I started crying a little bit and said he wishes
• 16:18
  Speaker 7: he hadn't done it. And then kept going around and
• 16:24
  Speaker 7: just doing stuff, I think, to keep himself busy or
• 16:27
  Speaker 7: distracted or something.
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: So now multiple confessions to Lance Twiggs, all of which
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: he's relaying to investigators, now captured on that video. And
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: finally here, I want to share with you Lance Twiggs'
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: assessment of the surveillance images of a man who certainly
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: looks like Tyler Robinson, and in the view of Lance Twiggs.
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: It is Tyler Robinson.
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: This is a cut nine, Lance Twiggs assessing that security
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: footage that you and I saw nearly a year ago.
• 17:02
  Speaker 6: I'm on the FBI's website. You can see the URL
• 17:06
  Speaker 6: there at the top. This is a press release about
• 17:09
  Speaker 6: this event. And here on the screen, you see these,
• 17:14
  Speaker 6: there's looks like there's two rows of three images. Do
• 17:18
  Speaker 6: you recognize the person in these images?
• 17:22
  Speaker 7: I wouldn't say with 100% certainty just because of camera quality,
• 17:26
  Speaker 7: but that looks like him in terms of the shoes
• 17:29
  Speaker 7: he's wearing, the sunglasses. I don't think I'd specifically seen
• 17:33
  Speaker 7: him wearing that hat, but he was usually wearing a
• 17:36
  Speaker 7: hat and then jeans. So it definitely, especially the bottom,
• 17:42
  Speaker 7: the last two definitely do look like him.
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: They've got this guy dead to rights. They've got this
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: guy dead to rights.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: And now some of the big questions become, do they
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: plea out of this? Do they go for some sort
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: of plea? Do they try and stop this thing from
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: going to trial at all? Because how in the world
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: does Tyler Robinson win or convince a jury that he
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: didn't do this, given the mountain of evidence that exists
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: against him? Now, in order to get to a plea deal,
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: you would need both sides to agree. You need both
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: the defense attorneys and the prosecution to agree to a deal.
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: What could the deal possibly be?
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: Now, presumably, Tyler Robinson's lawyers will be looking to take
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: the death penalty off the table. Utah is a death
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: penalty state. And as I understand it, their appeal process
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: is relatively short. So a death penalty after sentencing could
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: happen relatively quickly compared to so many other places in
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: the country. And Tyler Robinson's attorneys are going to look
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: for a deal potentially to foreclose on the death penalty,
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: perhaps to seek life in prison instead. But at this point,
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: I don't know that the prosecutors would even do that.
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: Why take a deal like that when the case is
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: as open and shut and as obvious as this? It
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: almost doesn't make sense at all to take a deal.
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: Just straight up take it to trial. If he wants
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: to plead guilty, go for it. But the idea that
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: they would have a deal that precludes the punishment that
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: he deserves.
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: Is Nobody wants to see that. Nobody wants to see that.
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: That guy deserves the chair.
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: That guy deserves to be put to death for what
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: he did to Charlie Kirk.
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: He was squirming yesterday. The reports from inside.
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: Of the courtroom were that he was fixated on the
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: testimony from Lance Twiggs. He was watching the video intently,
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: unlike his behavior in so much of the proceedings.
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: He's been doing a lot of doodling, apparently. He's got
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: a pen in his hand. He's been doodling. While we're
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: at it, maybe we can get some handwriting analysis while
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: he's in there. But when the video was playing, he
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: was talking.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: Locked in, watching every second of it, squirming, swinging uncomfortably
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: in his chair. Here's an assessment from inside of the
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: courtroom yesterday.
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: Listen to this.
• 20:02
  Speaker 12: Trace, just more details coming from inside the courtroom from
• 20:05
  Speaker 12: our digital reporter.
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: When they got to the point.
• 20:07
  Speaker 12: Discussing the rifle that was used, Tyler Robinson was squirming,
• 20:12
  Speaker 12: apparently uncomfortable, swinging in his chair, scratching his nose. He
• 20:16
  Speaker 12: looked uncomfortable with the texts that were being discussed. Also,
• 20:19
  Speaker 12: Erica Kirk was looking down, leaning forward, not looking at
• 20:24
  Speaker 12: the screen.
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: Showing those texts.
• 20:26
  Speaker 12: Our reporter also said Erica was audibly crying throughout the
• 20:29
  Speaker 12: proceeding today. When they got to the part about Lance was,
• 20:34
  Speaker 12: when he was asking Tyler about the rifle and for hunting,
• 20:37
  Speaker 12: the very graphic detail about the nature of the gun
• 20:42
  Speaker 12: that Robinson said did well in the killing, that is
• 20:45
  Speaker 12: when Tyler's mom, Tyler Robinson's mom, started crying and.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: Wiping her eyes.
• 20:50
  Speaker 12: Charlie Kirk's mother had her hand on Erica's upper arm
• 20:53
  Speaker 12: and shoulder, and they were both tearful today. After showing
• 20:57
  Speaker 12: the discord chat logs, the prosecution also put the note
• 21:01
  Speaker 12: from Tyler Robinson on the screen. That's the handwritten note
• 21:04
  Speaker 12: that's been discussed that Tyler Robinson left for his lover.
• 21:07
  Speaker 12: Our reporter inside of the courtroom says it was a
• 21:09
  Speaker 12: very lengthy, full page, handwritten note, Trace.
• 21:12
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: Matt Finn, back to you as the news warrants.
• 21:14
  Speaker 13: All right.
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: So that's the assessment from inside the courtroom.
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: Tyler Robinson freaking out as that Lance Twigg's video was
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: finally played.
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: That's what Erica Kirk asked for.
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: You know, the conspiracy theorizing around this whole trial has
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: been insane to me for a bunch of reasons. But one,
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: this idea that like Erica Kirk would somehow have been
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: responsible for her husband's death. This is retarded stuff that
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: people are advancing. Erica Kirk has been the one who's
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: been advocating for maximum transparency on every piece of evidence,
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: what kind of cover-up is demanding that all of the
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: evidence be displayed in public?
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: I mean, just think it through logically.
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: Erica Kirk is the single greatest force for transparency in
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: that courtroom. She has her attorney constantly badgering the judge
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: into releasing the kind of evidence that we just saw
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: yesterday from Lance Twiggs. I get that people are distrustful
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: of our institutions. That's well-earned, by the way. That's very well-earned.
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: But this is one of those Occam's razor situations. From
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: the very beginning, we knew that Tyler Robinson was the
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: most obvious guy to be the one who assassinated Charlie Kirk.
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: And now with a mountain of evidence in front of us,
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: at this point, I mean, if you get a dead end.
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: On the conspiracy theory, I don't know what to tell you.
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: You're lost.
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: You're a lost soul. You're a lost soul. As always,
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: allow truth to guide you. That's the guiding principle. Allow
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: truth to guide you. And in fact, on that, I've
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: got another element on this. There has been, have you
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: noticed that for people who have been tempted to believe
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: that there was some deeper conspiracy here, that Tyler Robinson's
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: a patsy or whatever, and this idea that they've been
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: advancing like, oh, why wasn't there an exit wound on
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: Charlie's body? He gets hit with this bullet. How come
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: there wasn't an exit wound? Why did it stay within him? Well,
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: we got answers to that too yesterday. I've got more
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: on that in just a moment as we look back
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: on this horrific moment in American history and try and
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: get some justice. But first, I want to tell you
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: about one of the great sponsors of our program, appreciative
• 23:26

• 24:44
  Speaker 3: Yes, indeed. Thank you to Helix. All right, so this
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: thing about the bullets, what's going on with the bullets?
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: It turns out we now have confirmation that the round
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: that entered Charlie's body was a soft point round, a
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: soft point round. Now, why does that matter? Well, I
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: want you to take a look at this assessment. Misfit
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: Patriot put together a video yesterday on this subject and said, well,
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: this explains everything.
• 25:15
  Speaker 3: Watch this. Cut 12.
• 25:17
  Speaker 13: Okay, guys, we finally have actual new information that confirms
• 25:23
  Speaker 13: the type of bullet that was used to kill Charlie Kirk,
• 25:26
  Speaker 13: the one that was found in Tyler Robinson's rifle.
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: Remember, that had his DNA on it.
• 25:33
  Speaker 13: The rounds had his DNA on it. And the bullet
• 25:35
  Speaker 13: that was found in Charlie Kirk's neck was an expanding
• 25:39
  Speaker 13: or potentially frangible round. Now, these are the ones that
• 25:43
  Speaker 13: he was engraving.
• 25:44
  Speaker 5: I want you to look right here where my finger is.
• 25:50
  Speaker 13: That is without question a soft point round or an
• 25:54
  Speaker 13: expanding jacketed round, right? Not the exact same thing as
• 25:58
  Speaker 13: a frangible round, but behaves very similarly a lot of
• 26:02
  Speaker 13: the time. So, These are designed to expand on impact,
• 26:08
  Speaker 13: open up, and when they hit things like bone, they
• 26:11
  Speaker 13: break apart.
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: Seems important, doesn't it? Seems very important to get that
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: assessment in there. Mike Lee was in the courtroom, by
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: the way. The senator, the Utah Senator Mike Lee, was
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: in the courtroom yesterday, and here's his assessment of everything
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: that he witnessed in person.
• 26:32
  Speaker 5: Cut 13.
• 26:32
  Speaker 8: Watch.
• 26:34
  Speaker 11: I was in the courtroom today sitting next to Jack
• 26:36
  Speaker 11: Kosovic and just behind Erica Kirk when evidence was admitted
• 26:41
  Speaker 11: by Judge Graff. That evidence, the evidence admitted today, is
• 26:46
  Speaker 11: absolutely compelling.
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: It's damning.
• 26:48
  Speaker 11: It contains multiple confessions by the defendant, Tyler Robinson, acknowledging
• 26:54
  Speaker 11: not only that he killed Charlie Kirk, but acknowledging that
• 26:58
  Speaker 11: he did so having planned it in advance in great detail, uh,
• 27:04
  Speaker 11: and acknowledging at one point that he was motivated by hate.
• 27:08
  Speaker 11: So he admitted this on multiple occasions in multiple ways.
• 27:15
  Speaker 11: So it's difficult to imagine how this results in anything
• 27:21
  Speaker 11: other than a conviction. We will stay tuned on that front.
• 27:24
  Speaker 11: The prosecution has done a great job, and Judge Graff,
• 27:28
  Speaker 11: while being very, very thorough, made the right decision to
• 27:32
  Speaker 11: admit this evidence today.
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: Yes, he did.
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: And I am so grateful that this is playing out
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: in public, that this trial is playing. This is exactly
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: what Erica Kirk, the Kirk family, has requested. those cameras
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: inside the courtroom, seeing the evidence on screen, hearing it
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: for ourselves. The public really does benefit from transparency in
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: this case, given all of the immense intention to this
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: and concern about it. And this is exactly the way
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: these things should be handled. It's actually one of the
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: things that makes America great, that we can have a
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: functioning justice system and that we can have transparency in
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: the court process. You want to bring the temperature down?
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: You want to calm things down? You want to resolve
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: these things? This is a huge step towards doing that.
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: We've been advocating for that, and I'm glad to see
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: it happening here. We're not even to the trial phase yet.
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: We'll see if we even get there. But a lot
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: of news this week out of Utah. Finally, some court proceedings,
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: some meaningful court proceedings underway.
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: All right.

• 28:33
  Speaker 2: I want to talk to you about the state of

• 28:37
  Speaker 2: got a lot on our minds and also the state

• 31:16
  Speaker 2: up in just a moment here is going to be
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: Ned Ryan.
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: We'll talk to Ned about everything he's got going on.
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: But Ned has just put a documentary out with a
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: look back at American history.
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: It's a really important look back, including.
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: A look at the way in which the left has
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: been plotting to destroy this great experiment in liberty. The
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: name of the documentary is The Threat of Liberty Keeping
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: Our Republic. I just want you to see a quick
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: clip here. including Hillsdale's Larry Arnn, describing the psychology of
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: the left.
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: Here's the clip.
• 31:52
  Speaker 9: So I'll try to state the argument of the progressives.
• 31:54
  Speaker 9: It's a very powerful argument, by the way. What they think,
• 31:56
  Speaker 9: and this mostly is derived from German historicist thought, 19th century,
• 32:00
  Speaker 9: 18th century stuff. What they say is, we live in
• 32:04
  Speaker 9: a context and we are shaped by that context. If
• 32:08
  Speaker 9: we were born in Elizabethan times in England, we'd be
• 32:11
  Speaker 9: one kind of thing. That same period in France or
• 32:14
  Speaker 9: Germany or China, different kind of thing. In America, a third,
• 32:17
  Speaker 9: fourth kind of thing. And so once we know that
• 32:21
  Speaker 9: we are shaped by our context, it means that what
• 32:24
  Speaker 9: we think is caused in us by external factors. But
• 32:28
  Speaker 9: then it's also liberating because once we know that, maybe
• 32:33
  Speaker 9: we could get control of the circumstances and remake the
• 32:37
  Speaker 9: world So that kind of thinking comes to America in
• 32:42
  Speaker 9: the second half of the 19th century. And they want
• 32:45
  Speaker 9: to make a government that can, general purpose, run everything.
• 32:49
  Speaker 9: Because we can make everything right. And so he's born
• 32:51
  Speaker 9: the administrative stage.
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: The documentary is called The Threat of Liberty, Keeping Our Republic.
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: You can view it online right now. Threatofliberty.com is the
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: place to see it.
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: Joining me now is Ned Ryan.
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: He's the founder and CEO of American Majority and the
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: executive director and producer of The Threat of Liberty. So
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: tell me about what you did here. This is the
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: 250th anniversary of the country. You put out this documentary.
• 33:29
  Speaker 3: I love it. I've been watching it, The Threat of Liberty.
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: Thank you.
• 33:32
  Speaker 3: What's the point here? What are you trying to share
• 33:34
  Speaker 3: with people?
• 33:35
  Speaker 8: So we use Alexis de Tocqueville, the young French nobleman
• 33:38
  Speaker 8: as a backdrop, who came to the young American Republic
• 33:42
  Speaker 8: early 1830s, actually started a prison system and then became
• 33:46
  Speaker 8: fascinated by the American Republic. How is this thing working?
• 33:49
  Speaker 8: And actually spent nine months and traveled 7,000 miles to
• 33:52
  Speaker 8: observe the American Republic, how it was formed, why it
• 33:56
  Speaker 8: was working, and just all of these observations that he made.
• 34:01
  Speaker 8: And we use it as a backdrop to show, first
• 34:04
  Speaker 8: of all, the incredible aspects of the American Republic. But really,
• 34:09
  Speaker 8: we call it the threat of liberty, Vince, because there's
• 34:11
  Speaker 8: so many times in our history, these inflection points where
• 34:16
  Speaker 8: a generation at that moment is still committed to and
• 34:21
  Speaker 8: has an obligation to the experiment continuing. So whether it
• 34:24
  Speaker 8: was the beginning of In the American Revolution, we're going
• 34:27
  Speaker 8: to form this American republic. We're going to fight for it,
• 34:29
  Speaker 8: whether it's the Civil War, whether it's these moments. You
• 34:32
  Speaker 8: just showed the clip of, I think, the newest inflection
• 34:35
  Speaker 8: point with us challenging the administrative state and talking about
• 34:39
  Speaker 8: the great gift we've been given. But also, do we
• 34:41
  Speaker 8: still have that obligation to the experiment, not only to
• 34:44
  Speaker 8: those that came before us, but those that are coming
• 34:46
  Speaker 8: after us?
• 34:46
  Speaker 5: Yes. So.
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: So one of the things that stands out to me
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: from the documentary is you review the fact that Alexis
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: de Tocqueville is traveling our country and what he's witnessing,
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: unlike the French Revolution, he's saying there's a unique spirit
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: for the American Revolution. And what he detects is kind
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: of an obligation to your fellow man that exists throughout
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: our country. this sentiment towards volunteerism. There are civic organizations.
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: There are, like, basically, we feel some sort of obligation
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: to our neighbor, and it doesn't involve the government at all.
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: It's entirely about just communities helping one another on a
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: private basis. And it made me think, as I'm watching this, Ned,
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: that one of the ways in which the left is
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: destroying the country is they're attacking those bonds. So if
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: we're importing millions and millions of people who don't even
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: share a culture or even a language, that really deteriorates
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: our ability to both understand each other and serve each other.
• 35:45
  Speaker 8: So Tocqueville made those observations against the local self-governance, which
• 35:50
  Speaker 8: really comes out of, and we allude to John Winthrop
• 35:53
  Speaker 8: and the idea of a covenant between not only our creator,
• 35:57
  Speaker 8: but our fellow man. And as a basis for how
• 36:00
  Speaker 8: the local New England townships began, in which they realize
• 36:04
  Speaker 8: we have this obligation to our creator. We also have
• 36:07
  Speaker 8: an obligation to our fellow man and the idea of
• 36:09
  Speaker 8: governing themselves in these townships. And that really is the
• 36:12
  Speaker 8: beginning of American self-governance. We talk about, you know, some
• 36:17
  Speaker 8: of the important aspects of the Republican white works. And
• 36:20
  Speaker 8: just so people understand, the founders studied the history of republics.
• 36:24
  Speaker 8: Republics fail. The history of republics is that they all fail.
• 36:29
  Speaker 8: They're very fragile things. And so the founders decided we
• 36:34
  Speaker 8: are going to put together a self-governing republic, first time
• 36:37
  Speaker 8: ever a rights-based republic existed in the world in which
• 36:39
  Speaker 8: the people were sovereign. But going back to some of
• 36:42
  Speaker 8: the things that Tocqueville observed that the founders strongly believed in,
• 36:45
  Speaker 8: Tocqueville observed that he thought faith and liberty would be opponents.
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: In this new republic, he found they were intertwined.
• 36:53
  Speaker 8: He realized that America's first political institution was religion. And
• 36:58
  Speaker 8: the founders realized that a self-governing republic only works with
• 37:02
  Speaker 8: virtuous people. And if you look at what John Adams
• 37:06
  Speaker 8: and George Washington were very adamant about this, a lot
• 37:08
  Speaker 8: of the founders were, but they're two of the ones
• 37:10
  Speaker 8: that we really highlight. Virtue comes from religion. What is
• 37:13
  Speaker 8: the religion that they're referring to? Well, at the time, obviously,
• 37:15
  Speaker 8: it's Christianity.
• 37:17
  Speaker 10: Right.
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: And so the idea being, you talk about all these.
• 37:22
  Speaker 8: Things that are taking place in our society that we
• 37:24
  Speaker 8: have to go back and understand that. why the republic
• 37:28
  Speaker 8: was founded, why the republic worked, and then how do
• 37:31
  Speaker 8: you actually get back to restoring what the founders envisioned
• 37:35
  Speaker 8: for this country? Because I think, again, with the administrative
• 37:37
  Speaker 8: state and some of these other things, we've drifted very
• 37:39
  Speaker 8: far away from this.
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: I totally agree. I think that the modern left is
• 37:43
  Speaker 3: trying to turn us into the Tower of Babel.
• 37:44
  Speaker 10: 100%.
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: They're like just straight up just destroying everybody, sending everybody
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: in every direction.
• 37:50
  Speaker 3: You don't even share any common language or culture.
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: And as a result, it deteriorates everything that made the
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: American founding great.
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: It's intentional.
• 37:58
  Speaker 8: And I don't think I'm saying anything that should be
• 38:00
  Speaker 8: too shocking to the listeners. But the American left loathes, despises,
• 38:05
  Speaker 8: hates the founders and the founding documents. And it began
• 38:07
  Speaker 8: with the progressive movement. Woodrow Wilson and the early progressives
• 38:11
  Speaker 8: that began the administrative state. You know, I think this
• 38:14
  Speaker 8: is one of the things that's not told enough in
• 38:15
  Speaker 8: our history. You know, everybody wants to look at the progressives.
• 38:18
  Speaker 8: They are for food quality and suffrage.
• 38:19
  Speaker 5: Great.
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: Awesome. No disagreements there.
• 38:22
  Speaker 8: How antagonistic they were towards the founders and the founders'
• 38:26
  Speaker 8: vision for this government, how they went out and for
• 38:29
  Speaker 8: the last 114 years have been doing their best to
• 38:32
  Speaker 8: deconstruct the machinery of the republic because the founders put
• 38:36
  Speaker 8: in place the machinery of the republic, separation of powers,
• 38:38
  Speaker 8: because they didn't trust human nature. They realized that republics
• 38:41
  Speaker 8: in the past failed. Because factionalism and one faction became–
• 38:47
  Speaker 8: overwhelmed the others and then dominated, consolidated power. Well, that's
• 38:51
  Speaker 8: exactly what progressives hate. They hate the separation of powers.
• 38:53
  Speaker 8: They actually want to consolidate power into the administrative state.
• 38:57
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: I know this is like– this is only glancingly related,
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: but I do feel like it has an impact on civilization.
• 39:03
  Speaker 3: Totally.
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: I just saw– Fundamentally, it's changed culture and society.
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: I just saw that– I don't know if perhaps you
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: saw this headline. Do you see that in England and
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: in Wales, the number one baby name this year is Mohammed?
• 39:17
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 39:18
  Speaker 3: For the third year in.
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: A row, Mohammed is the number one baby name in
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: jolly old London. Now it's London, Stan. And so they
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: keep naming everybody Muhammad. And I'm like, well, that's a
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: radical change really quickly. How can a country sustain that
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: much change that quickly?
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: You can't.
• 39:34
  Speaker 8: I mean, I think it was Reagan that said, you know,
• 39:36
  Speaker 8: freedom can be lost in a generation. And I think
• 39:38
  Speaker 8: we're seeing a play out in Western Europe. And we
• 39:41
  Speaker 8: make this point in the documentary events that I think
• 39:44
  Speaker 8: some of us are on autopilot. We think, oh, America
• 39:46
  Speaker 8: will never fail. America will never fall. Yeah, you can
• 39:49
  Speaker 8: lose in a generation. And it's always the current generation's
• 39:52
  Speaker 8: obligation to go, do we actually feel obligated to this experiment?
• 39:57
  Speaker 8: Do we have the political courage, which I call into
• 40:00
  Speaker 8: question with many Republicans today in D.C.? Do we have
• 40:03
  Speaker 8: the political will and courage to actually carry that thread forward?
• 40:06
  Speaker 8: Because it's going to be some pretty hard decisions because
• 40:09
  Speaker 8: of the things that we're confronting.
• 40:11
  Speaker 3: Yes, indeed.
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: OK, so again, the documentary is called Thread of Liberty.
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: That's threadofliberty.com for people.
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: To see it. So go watch it.
• 40:20
  Speaker 3: It's free and it's great.
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: And your kids will like it, too. You watch it
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: with the family. So, Ned, let's talk about the state
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: of elections this year. How do you how are you
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: handicapping the midterms right now as of today?
• 40:34
  Speaker 8: I would say if you were to make me bet
• 40:36
  Speaker 8: right now, we're not losing the Senate. I think when
• 40:40
  Speaker 8: the dust settles after November 3rd, we will still have
• 40:42
  Speaker 8: the Senate. Don't ask me to tell you what the
• 40:44
  Speaker 8: majority will look like. But I have a hard time
• 40:48
  Speaker 8: believing we will lose the Senate. The House, to me, obviously,
• 40:51
  Speaker 8: we're up against historical trends. And people make the argument
• 40:54
  Speaker 8: this isn't actually Trump's first term.
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: I get it.
• 40:58
  Speaker 8: Historical trends have been that the party in the White
• 41:01
  Speaker 8: House tends to lose dozens of seats in their first midterms.
• 41:06
  Speaker 8: So but on the counterpoint, then we have I think
• 41:10
  Speaker 8: maybe for the first time in a very long time,
• 41:13
  Speaker 8: we're going to have a money advantage over the left,
• 41:16
  Speaker 8: which is unusual for us.
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: We have a pretty big debt, right? The DNC is
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: in massive debt right now. DNC has a massive war chest.
• 41:25
  Speaker 8: But I want you to think even more beyond that
• 41:27
  Speaker 8: of Trump's putting a lot in from MAGA Inc.
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: I have the exact figure. I'm not going to quote it,
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: but it's not insignificant.
• 41:34
  Speaker 8: Elon Musk is coming in pretty hard.
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: Some of the donors I work with are coming in
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: pretty hard.
• 41:39
  Speaker 3: Wait, Elon Musk is spending in the midterms?
• 41:42
  Speaker 8: Yeah, he's going to come in. There are plans for
• 41:44
  Speaker 8: him to actually come in. And I think primarily focused
• 41:47
  Speaker 8: on Senate races and the House races that are in
• 41:50
  Speaker 8: those states.
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: Again, I'm not as involved in those conversations, but Elon's
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: coming back.
• 41:54
  Speaker 3: Is that through his America PAC?
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: So he's coming back. MAGA Inc.
• 42:00
  Speaker 8: RNC has a financial advantage. NRCC is doing a great job.
• 42:04
  Speaker 8: The senatorial committee is doing great. So money is not
• 42:07
  Speaker 8: going to be an issue as it normally is for
• 42:09
  Speaker 8: us in midterms. We're going to have better candidates. They've
• 42:12
  Speaker 8: done a good job of recruiting on our side. The
• 42:15
  Speaker 8: left is putting up blatant socialists. So candidate quality would
• 42:20
  Speaker 8: be better on our side. Do I think we're going
• 42:22
  Speaker 8: to have a better ground game?
• 42:23
  Speaker 5: I do.
• 42:24
  Speaker 8: I think that a lot of people are starting to
• 42:26
  Speaker 8: embrace what we do with the absentee ballot chase, early vote.
• 42:30
  Speaker 8: But I think the thing that is concerning me right
• 42:33
  Speaker 8: now with the House is some of the dynamics where
• 42:37
  Speaker 8: I have been trying to beat the drum with the
• 42:39
  Speaker 8: West Wing, domestic, domestic, domestic, economy, economy, economy, affordability, affordability.
• 42:45
  Speaker 8: And I think that the Trump administration really needs to
• 42:49
  Speaker 8: bear down on the domestic issues between now and November 3rd.
• 42:52
  Speaker 8: So if you were to ask me right now, I
• 42:55
  Speaker 8: think we've got a legitimate shot of keeping the House.
• 42:58
  Speaker 8: Do I think we'll lose seats?
• 43:00
  Speaker 10: Probably.
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: But the other dynamic, too, I'll tell you, Vince, is this.
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: We won the redistricting wars.
• 43:06
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 43:06
  Speaker 8: I don't know if you saw the Cook report that
• 43:08
  Speaker 8: pulled together all the different things, you know, dynamics. I
• 43:11
  Speaker 8: think we have 215 safe Republican seats. I think they're
• 43:15
  Speaker 8: at 209, which leaves 11 true toss up seats. I'll
• 43:20
  Speaker 8: take those dynamics any day.
• 43:22
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 43:23
  Speaker 8: We only need to win three of those toss ups
• 43:25
  Speaker 8: to keep the majority.
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: And victory to me, Vince, is holding the House by
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: one seat.
• 43:30
  Speaker 3: And that means you concentrate resources.
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: You concentrate resources in these 11 districts.
• 43:34
  Speaker 10: Exactly.
• 43:34
  Speaker 3: And that includes MAGA Inc.
• 43:36
  Speaker 2: what you're involved in with American Majority.
• 43:39
  Speaker 8: J.D.
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: Vance is running a lot of the fundraising for the
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: Trump administration.
• 43:43
  Speaker 10: Yes.
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: Phenomenal job, by the way.
• 43:45
  Speaker 5: Is he doing a good job?
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: He's doing a great job.
• 43:47
  Speaker 8: I would argue one of the reasons that the RNC
• 43:49
  Speaker 8: at least got juiced to have the financial advantage was
• 43:53
  Speaker 8: obviously J.D. has been the RNC finance chair for the midterms.
• 43:57
  Speaker 8: And I was talking with the chief of staff. I
• 44:00
  Speaker 8: could make a very strong argument that J.D. has done
• 44:02
  Speaker 8: a tremendous job and put them on this trajectory because
• 44:06
  Speaker 8: of all the work that he put in on the
• 44:07
  Speaker 8: fundraising front.
• 44:08
  Speaker 2: So the dynamics- And the amazing thing is like, if
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: the Senate and the House stay Republican, by and large,
• 44:16
  Speaker 2: it's not gonna be because of the incumbents and their
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: great track record. It's gonna be because Democrats suck and
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: people really do believe in the Trump agenda and they
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: wanna send backup.
• 44:27
  Speaker 8: Yeah, the thing that concerns me is there are a
• 44:30
  Speaker 8: lot of Republicans in D.C. that are doing their best
• 44:35
  Speaker 8: to somehow lose political power this fall. But I want
• 44:37
  Speaker 8: to give people a little perspective really quick, Vince. If
• 44:40
  Speaker 8: we can hold the House in 26, and again, by
• 44:42
  Speaker 8: one seat, that's all I want at a minimum, we
• 44:45
  Speaker 8: put ourselves on a really good path for 28. I mean,
• 44:47
  Speaker 8: one of the things I'm working on is changing the
• 44:48
  Speaker 8: battleground map. to take multiple states off that battleground map,
• 44:53
  Speaker 8: turn Arizona into Florida, Nevada into Florida, North Carolina into Florida.
• 44:56
  Speaker 8: That's a longer conversation, but focused on voter registration and
• 45:00
  Speaker 8: absentee ballot generation among mid to low propensity Republicans. If
• 45:04
  Speaker 8: you change the battleground map by the summer of 28,
• 45:06
  Speaker 8: you put ourselves on a really good path to keep
• 45:07
  Speaker 8: the White House.
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: And then it leads us to 2030.
• 45:11
  Speaker 8: The 2030 census, if done correctly, we continue the mass deportations,
• 45:15
  Speaker 8: we have a citizenship question, we remove the differential privacy algorithm,
• 45:18
  Speaker 8: we actually have a legitimate director of the Census Bureau.
• 45:21
  Speaker 8: You do all of that correctly, you could move 25
• 45:25
  Speaker 8: to 40 House seats and electoral votes into red states
• 45:28
  Speaker 8: and lead to a decade or more of Republican dominance.
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: Which, that's how you get back to normal, Vince. We
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: don't have much in.
• 45:35
  Speaker 8: Common with the un-American left, and so my solution is
• 45:38
  Speaker 8: forcing them into unconditional surrender and sending them into the
• 45:41
  Speaker 8: political wilderness. So maybe they ought to come to Jesus
• 45:43
  Speaker 8: moment and realize socialism doesn't work.
• 45:46
  Speaker 3: We need to stop the election rigging.
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: By now, if you are somehow under some sort of
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: delusion that the left doesn't rig elections, you have not
• 45:55
  Speaker 2: been paying attention at all. I mean, the way they
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: rig elections includes what you just laid out. They rigged
• 46:01
  Speaker 2: the electoral college through this fraudulence in the census, illegal
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: aliens populating it. They rig congressional seats in the same
• 46:08
  Speaker 2: exact way. They rig media coverage in order to obviously
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: prejudice voters when they go to the polls. They rig
• 46:14
  Speaker 2: the way ballots are even counted. They've got legalized ballot
• 46:17
  Speaker 2: harvesting in a number of these Democrat states. They're paying
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: voters to vote for Karen Bass in the L.A. mayoral
• 46:24
  Speaker 2: race on Skid Row. It's captured on video. There's so
• 46:27
  Speaker 2: much obvious stuff that's going on. And so, in other words,
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: fixing election rigging, it seems to me, is priority one.
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: You talk about domestic issues, Ned Ryan. This is why
• 46:36
  Speaker 2: we're beating Congress over the head to pass the Save
• 46:38
  Speaker 2: America Act, because we think priority one is getting back
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: to business on elections.
• 46:44
  Speaker 8: Well, I was very encouraged by Harmeet Dhillon's comments the
• 46:47
  Speaker 8: other day in which the DOJ is going to have
• 46:51
  Speaker 8: observers in places where they think there's very sketchy behavior.
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: Taking place. But you're right.
• 46:58
  Speaker 8: I mean, I think people should be appalled by what
• 47:00
  Speaker 8: took place in the mayoral race out in LA, where
• 47:02
  Speaker 8: they're ballot harvesting among Skid Row people. The Democrats, the left,
• 47:08
  Speaker 8: and by that, I mean the same thing, have decided
• 47:12
  Speaker 8: that they will do anything and everything to gain and
• 47:15
  Speaker 8: retain political power. Their idea of free and fair elections,
• 47:19
  Speaker 8: you know, that doesn't exist.
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: It's how do we actually win elections by whatever means possible.
• 47:23
  Speaker 8: And so I think one of the things we've got
• 47:25
  Speaker 8: to do is obviously, you know, the DOJ under Harmeet
• 47:28
  Speaker 8: has been trying to get some of these blue states
• 47:30
  Speaker 8: to clean their voter rolls. They are resisting it. I mean,
• 47:33
  Speaker 8: dirty elections, we can talk about all the other stuff
• 47:36
  Speaker 8: that takes place. Dirty elections start with dirty voter rolls.
• 47:38
  Speaker 8: And if you're not having clean voter rolls in these
• 47:40
  Speaker 8: states where they're sending out mail-in, you know, absentee ballots
• 47:43
  Speaker 8: to every person on the voter roll, Vince, you're flooding
• 47:46
  Speaker 8: the zone. Some of these states like Wisconsin have millions
• 47:51
  Speaker 8: of voters that are inactive. And of course, Democrats in
• 47:54
  Speaker 8: Wisconsin are trying to actually change the laws in which
• 47:57
  Speaker 8: they will send out an absentee ballot to every name
• 48:00
  Speaker 8: that's on the voter rolls.
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: They don't want to clean the voter rolls.
• 48:03
  Speaker 8: And so it's one of the things that I think
• 48:05
  Speaker 8: is incumbent upon the DOJ to continue down this path
• 48:08
  Speaker 8: of Oregon, and Washington State, and Wisconsin, all these other states,
• 48:12
  Speaker 8: you actually have to clean your voter rolls. If we
• 48:14
  Speaker 8: clean the voter rolls, I think you start to see
• 48:17
  Speaker 8: our elections have a lot more integrity in the results.
• 48:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, no, that's right.
• 48:21
  Speaker 2: And this is also, by the way, one of the
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: other features of the Safe America Act. It would purge
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: non-citizens at scale.
• 48:28
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: That's little discussed, but that is a major feature of
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: the Safe America Act.
• 48:32
  Speaker 8: And the reason that I point out, and we're talking
• 48:34
  Speaker 8: about non-citizens, First of all, there's a lot more non-citizens
• 48:38
  Speaker 8: that vote in our elections that people want to admit.
• 48:40
  Speaker 8: There's been academic studies on it, but it does lead
• 48:43
  Speaker 8: to political power. I mean, this is the one of
• 48:45
  Speaker 8: the things where when I mentioned the 2030 census, the
• 48:47
  Speaker 8: mass deportations have to continue because political power based off
• 48:52
  Speaker 8: apportionment is one of the reasons that Democrats want mass immigration,
• 48:56
  Speaker 8: because guess what? In 2020, there were plenty of non-citizens
• 49:01
  Speaker 8: counted in the census for apportionment reasons, not only on
• 49:04
  Speaker 8: the House votes, House seats, electoral votes.
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: It was 2.7.
• 49:09
  Speaker 8: Trillion federal dollars were distributed based off the bogus 2020
• 49:14
  Speaker 8: census numbers. So there's a lot of things that take
• 49:17
  Speaker 8: place for political power and money based off the census.
• 49:20
  Speaker 8: And when you're including the non-citizens, it leads to absolutely
• 49:25
  Speaker 8: corrupt numbers.
• 49:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's also destructive to jobs and housing prices and
• 49:28
  Speaker 2: communities and peace. It's really disgusting, all of it. One
• 49:32
  Speaker 2: more headline for you this morning. Perhaps, I don't know
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: if you've seen this. Fellas, if you could cut to
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: my screen here, I've got a political report this morning
• 49:39
  Speaker 2: on this subject. President Trump has just ousted a bunch
• 49:42
  Speaker 2: of members of the bipartisan election commission ahead of the
• 49:46
  Speaker 2: midterms Politico reports. He just got a great Supreme Court
• 49:50
  Speaker 2: judgment that said, of course, the president's allowed to fire
• 49:53
  Speaker 2: these commission members. So he is firing them. President Trump
• 49:56
  Speaker 2: has ousted the remaining commissioners from a bipartisan federal agency.
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: charged with helping state and local officials conduct elections in
• 50:04
  Speaker 2: an apparent move to assert control over voting ahead of
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: the midterms. What a scam by Politico in their lead paragraph.
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: The president removed the two Democrat members of the Election
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: Assistance Commission on Thursday, while a Republican was allowed to resign,
• 50:19
  Speaker 2: according to a White House official. and three other people
• 50:22
  Speaker 2: familiar with the dismissals. The White House's move leaves the commission,
• 50:25
  Speaker 2: which was created by Congress in 2002, without any leaders
• 50:29
  Speaker 2: heading into the midterms. Now, Ned Ryan, is President Trump
• 50:33
  Speaker 2: involving himself in this because he's trying to rig the election,
• 50:36
  Speaker 2: or is it something else?
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: It's to get back to free and fair elections.
• 50:40
  Speaker 8: Every time I hear bipartisan, by the way, Vince, I
• 50:43
  Speaker 8: think a committee that is giving the false impression that
• 50:46
  Speaker 8: somehow it's even-handed when in fact it's probably staffed with
• 50:49
  Speaker 8: partisan Democrats, hard-left Democrats who are intent on pushing their
• 50:54
  Speaker 8: agenda and milk toast Republicans. So when everybody says bipartisan,
• 50:59
  Speaker 8: I immediately dismiss it as being a legitimate action trying
• 51:02
  Speaker 8: to get to the free and fair.
• 51:03
  Speaker 1: Elections that we want. So that is the goal of
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: the Trump administration.
• 51:07
  Speaker 8: And again, you're going to have the harpies and the
• 51:10
  Speaker 8: corporate propaganda screaming bloody murder. But again, they're just a
• 51:15
  Speaker 8: propaganda arm of the left. The point is to get
• 51:18
  Speaker 8: back to free and fair elections that the American people
• 51:21
  Speaker 8: writ large, by the way, both sides of the aisle
• 51:23
  Speaker 8: trust and say, you know what?
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: We might not have won this, but we know that
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: these elections are fair and we can abide by the results.
• 51:29
  Speaker 1: And that that is one thing, Vince. Again, it's one
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: of the basis of the republic.
• 51:34
  Speaker 8: Where you have transfer, you know, peaceful transfer of power,
• 51:37
  Speaker 8: if you can't trust the elections, it calls into question
• 51:40
  Speaker 8: that peaceful transfer of power.
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: We have to get back.
• 51:43
  Speaker 8: To where both sides actually trust the results and say,
• 51:46
  Speaker 8: you know what, we might have lost, but we can
• 51:47
  Speaker 8: trust the results.
• 51:48
  Speaker 3: Absolutely. It's a key ingredient for stability.
• 51:51
  Speaker 2: Anybody who's ever run a household knows that trust is
• 51:54
  Speaker 2: the way that you keep things calm.
• 51:57
  Speaker 3: OK, one more for you just on the on the
• 51:59
  Speaker 3: elections this year.
• 52:01
  Speaker 2: Graham Plattner has just been drummed out of the race
• 52:04
  Speaker 2: by his own party. They they put the knife to him.
• 52:08
  Speaker 2: I both knew for many months that he was a scumbag.
• 52:10
  Speaker 2: But the Democrats finally acknowledged it the moment they realized
• 52:13
  Speaker 2: there's no chance he was going to win this race.
• 52:15
  Speaker 3: So that's why they gave him the heave ho.
• 52:18
  Speaker 2: But interestingly, Plattner hasn't actually filed his paperwork yet, Ned.
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: As much as he announced it this week, he hasn't
• 52:23
  Speaker 2: filed his paperwork. Axios reports that he may not file
• 52:26
  Speaker 2: until Monday. That's the drop dead date. This is giving
• 52:31
  Speaker 2: Democrats a lot of heartburn that they're not even admitting
• 52:33
  Speaker 2: right now.
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: First of all, they're soulless.
• 52:37
  Speaker 8: The left's one moral code, if you even called that, is,
• 52:42
  Speaker 8: you know, they're precious as political power. Graham Plattner was
• 52:45
  Speaker 8: just a tool that they thought they could use to
• 52:48
  Speaker 8: achieve another Senate seat and.
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: Beat Susan Collins.
• 52:52
  Speaker 8: And then they realize, wait a minute, maybe this dude
• 52:54
  Speaker 8: with the Nazi tattoo who's got all kinds of issues
• 52:58
  Speaker 8: might not be the best candidate. Again, very convenient too,
• 53:00
  Speaker 8: by the way, Vince, that right around where they started
• 53:03
  Speaker 8: throwing these accusations out, Susan Collins releases a poll showing
• 53:07
  Speaker 8: her up by four. I remind people in 2020, she
• 53:09
  Speaker 8: was down by astronomical figures.
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: And then ends up winning.
• 53:13
  Speaker 8: So if she's up by four in the summer, the
• 53:15
  Speaker 8: odds of her winning are really, really good.
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: But Democrats in.
• 53:21
  Speaker 8: DC, and again, I would say mostly across this country,
• 53:25
  Speaker 8: have become soulless creatures, twisted, corrupt creatures whose only pursuit
• 53:30
  Speaker 8: is political power. But I'll make this last point too. Again,
• 53:34
  Speaker 8: I'm cracking up. The reason I was cracking up, the
• 53:36
  Speaker 8: most undemocratic thing in American politics today is, is a
• 53:42
  Speaker 8: Democratic primary. Because it's kind of like, well, we know
• 53:46
  Speaker 8: the people voted for this guy, but we're not really
• 53:48
  Speaker 8: happy with the results. So a small group of us
• 53:50
  Speaker 8: are going to decide who the actual candidate is. So
• 53:52
  Speaker 8: screw that whole idea of representative democracy and voting. We'll
• 53:56
  Speaker 8: take it from here and try and get a better
• 53:57
  Speaker 8: candidate that will help us get that political power we want.
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: But it cracks me up.
• 54:01
  Speaker 8: Just the hypocrisy and the soulless nature that is taking
• 54:06
  Speaker 8: place inside the Democratic power.
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: But I hope they tear themselves to shreds.
• 54:10
  Speaker 8: I hope the hard left fully takes over from this D.C.
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: Establishment. I hope there's a bloody civil war. I hope they.
• 54:20
  Speaker 8: Are involved in a civil war that actually weakens them
• 54:22
  Speaker 8: going into the midterm. I hope somehow we can pour
• 54:26
  Speaker 8: jet fuel on this whole situation to really acerbate the
• 54:30
  Speaker 8: differences between the left and the dying grasps of the D.C.
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: Establishment.
• 54:35
  Speaker 2: Planner on Monday, he kamikazed the party on that or yesterday,
• 54:39
  Speaker 2: two days ago now in that statement. He straight up
• 54:41
  Speaker 2: was like, it's the establishment. They destroyed me. They decided
• 54:44
  Speaker 2: they pulled out the rug from under me.
• 54:46
  Speaker 3: They gave me no resources. They cut me off entirely.
• 54:49
  Speaker 3: They're the bad guys. All right, good. Let them fight.
• 54:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, go for it.
• 54:53
  Speaker 8: Just I hope you die a death of a thousand cuts,
• 54:56
  Speaker 8: political cuts, just so we're very clear on this figuratively speaking.
• 54:59
  Speaker 3: We're not the left. They're the assassins.
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they're the violent ones.
• 55:03
  Speaker 8: But I think you're looking at something that's going to
• 55:06
  Speaker 8: accelerate in its rhetoric and the hatred between these two
• 55:12
  Speaker 8: factions inside the Democratic Party because they realize, I mean,
• 55:15
  Speaker 8: the left's on the rise. I think in some ways
• 55:18
  Speaker 8: we'll see them fully take over the Democratic Party. the
• 55:20
  Speaker 8: DC establishment holding on, grasping to that power still. But that's, again,
• 55:27
  Speaker 8: one of those dynamics where you asked me about the midterms.
• 55:29
  Speaker 8: I think this is kind of one of those things
• 55:31
  Speaker 8: where even if some of the dynamics that I hope
• 55:33
  Speaker 8: are in our favor in regards to narrative and economy
• 55:35
  Speaker 8: and all that, never underestimate the left's ability to light
• 55:38
  Speaker 8: themselves on fire.
• 55:40
  Speaker 3: Literally, in some cases. Ned, thank you very much, brother.
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: Thanks, Vince. I appreciate it.
• 55:44
  Speaker 3: That's Ned with American Majority.
