Transcript
- Kira Davis: you Well, hello everybody. Good morning. Good afternoon. Welcome to another episode of the Orange Report with Kira Davis. I am the aforementioned Kira Davis and we got a lot to talk about today. ⁓ Let me just pin our show to the top here. Everybody go find it. Tell your friends we're here. ⁓ Orange Report is my California based show. This is all the news and views you can use from around California and Orange County. California news is America news. And that's never been truer than today. What is happening? Everybody. We are in the era of accountability. This I believe this. I believe, of course, I am talking about Eric Swalwell. This is basically going to be Eric Swalwell all the time today. So, ⁓ make sure you follow us everywhere. ⁓ on the show orange report OC here on X we broadcast live to X Monday through Wednesday, and then we do a Friday wrap up show. which is really California heavy, really Orange County heavy news as well. ⁓ And you can find us everywhere at Orange Report OC, of course, follow me here, Kira Davis. And I got back from the Republican, California Republican Convention this past weekend. talked about it yesterday on today's show, or we talked about it yesterday on the show. And there was, it was really interesting. I learned a lot. We didn't get a nomination out of that process for an endorsement for governor. I, it wasn't ⁓ necessarily something that either candidate felt ⁓ was absolutely necessary, but it would have helped. But interestingly enough, Swalwell then, while we were there, ⁓ began to fold. And as predicted, the polls have changed. Actually, let's go to. Let me put my glasses on here and stop pretending I can't, I can see without my glasses. I do this a lot. I texted my friend like this totally random thing the other day and she was like, I don't know what this means. When I put my glasses on, I was like, Oh, I texted it without glasses on. I'm so sorry. And I just asked people on X last night about contacts, because I'm terrified of contacts. The idea of putting something in my eye and what if it gets lost in there? I don't know. I'm thinking more and more about it. Hit me up in the comments. Like give me some comfort. A lot of you guys had great advice, great comfort on the contacts thing. I just don't like being chained to glass. I don't mind glasses and glasses look cool. Sometimes get a cool pair. love these, but, ⁓ you know, just don't want to be chained to them. anyway, sidebar that that has nothing to do with Eric's wall wells depravity, but, ⁓ at least I could see it better. You know, contacts, maybe it wouldn't be so inconvenient, but we'll get to Eric in a minute. But as I was saying, new polling has come out, fresh polling. And, ⁓ it's pretty much what we thought it would be. Let's do, ⁓ let's do, ⁓ show a number four here, Scott clip for cut four. This is a. Alright. Where am I? Okay. Here we go. Sorry about that. California governor race is the San Diego County Tribune poll. Diego County surveyed. So this is one County. right. And the polls are California polls are difficult because there's just so many of us here. ⁓ but as you can see, Steve Hilton on the top with 20 % Tom Steyer has skipped ahead to 14%. ⁓ that was Swalwell right underneath there before. Jose baccaria or whatever. Xavier baccaria. think Joe Biden called him Jose baccaria. Xavier Becerra at 9%. Bianco at 8%. This is exactly how we thought it was going to be people. is exactly what we expect. Bianco at 8%. All right, you can take that off. ⁓ Yeah, that's all I have. ⁓ This is what I keep trying to tell people about chat. It's not that you're wrong to like him. It's not that you are wrong to, you know, support him. A lot of my friends who are Chad supporters feel that he is a good Christian man and that takes precedence over everything else for them. And I'm not going to argue that point right now, but what I will say is regardless of that, Chad does not have the opportunity to win. Now a thousand, know a lot of you apologists out there are saying, well, it's only a thousand people and it's San Diego County, but that's how polling works. It's a sample, right? And San Diego County is a really diverse county. It's a really big county. It's a good county to take polls in, just like LA County is, just like San Luis Obispo is. There are some counties that pollsters go to, to get a good read on the rest of the state, and that's San Diego. But even if you don't believe that, the highest he's polling, even in his own polls, is 13 to 14 percent. I've been telling you this for a minute now. He's stalling out. The campaign is stalling out. And it doesn't matter what the delegates did at the convention, because the delegates aren't even representative of the entire state. They're not even representative of the base. Which feels crazy. This is why I now understand why so many people recruit me to be a delegate. I don't really have much interest in it, but a lot of people are like, there's, there's a lot of crazy delegates out there. There's a lot of great delegates, but, ⁓ the delegates are not a complete, I mean, I'm sorry, they just are not a complete representation of this, of the Republican state. And that's not an insult. All it means is that if you're a delegate, right, you're paying. for that privilege, by the way, you have to pay a fee to be a member of the party and a fee to be a delegate. So the type of person who would pay a fee, pay a hundred dollars to be a delegate and then whatever your county party requires for registration. think mine's like a hundred dollars a year or something like that. So $200, the kind of person who would pay $200, get out of bed on a Friday morning. fly to San Diego from the very northern regions of the state, know, slum it at a convention for three days, eat expensive food, you know, go to see political operatives give seminars on door knocking and voter training and all of that. Like the type of person that would, that is dedicated to do that, that's that's not representative of the normal electorate. mean, I say for me, right? I'm not a normie. I'm a political junkie. I'm a political nerd. And that's the type of people who go. So it's not to say that their voice doesn't matter. I don't mean to imply that at all. Certainly not. I just mean to say you can get fooled by that data coming out of the convention. And it is not representative of the larger Republican base. That's just the way our system works. So even when Chad went in there, and he only won that even by just a small 3%, and you can attribute that to Chad not campaigning to the people in the state, but he's been campaigning to delegates for the last year, which I said yesterday, I thought was really smart and I didn't understand that's what he was doing. It was really smart. And you saw the results at the convention. ⁓ but the flip side of that is he's paying for it in the polls. He needed name ID. I think he thought if he could win that, ⁓ endorsement that would discourage Steve enough to have his camp drop out. And then he could work on name ID net. Then he could work on name, name recognition. I think it was a, it was a smart move, but it was a miscalculation. He stalled out. He is stalled out right now, not to say things can't change, but right now at 13%. I really, understand the people who like Bianco. do, I truly do. I know you guys are really upset because you think that Steve's gone negative. I want to reiterate that, that, ⁓ mailer that everyone's upset about the image you saw is not the image. That's not the image. I don't know why Steve's camp hasn't put out the original yet, probably just because they don't really want to talk about it because it's stupid. It's so stupid. would just be a waste of their time to talk about, but the original image, um, is not what Chad's camp put out. They anyways, so I know you're upset with that, but putting that aside, we do have a race to win. do have a state to save. And so we have to go with the candidate who can win. I know you want to go with like what you think is the best man, but it's not like we have two communists here, right? Like neither one of these choices is a horrible choice. We have to make the logical choice. As these polls go on to my mind, it's Steve Hilton. just couldn't be anyone else. And I think if I was on Chad's side, I'd probably be waffling a little bit now. Just I'm getting concerned. If I was on that side, I would be saying, I'm getting concerned that we're not going to pull this out. And I don't want to risk losing the whole state on our pride. So people have some tough decisions to make. Again, I know it's ugly. I gave a whole speech yesterday about how that's just politics and everyone needs to just pull it together and understand this is how it goes. This is politics. I've been in this game for 20 years now. It's never been any different. Go look at our, it's never been any different actually. think it's not just naive to request that of your candidates. It's ignorant because you're not a student of history then. You need to just read. Thomas Jefferson and John Adams and how they talked about each other when they were campaigning and outside of it. Read what John Adams has to say about Ben Franklin. He hated Ben Franklin. They talked to all kinds of crap about Ben Franklin. And these guys said horrible things about each other's mothers and the sexual positions their mothers would be in. Like our founding fathers did this. So we're not in some new time. And the idea that anyone's going to be so high-minded that they're going to avoid the negatives of politics, that is very naive and it's ignorant. It's ignorant of American history. Again, it's not just us. I read a great book about the Russian royal line and the Russian revolution. And they're one of their queens, Queen Catherine was, ⁓ my goodness. Some of the stuff that her opponents had put in the media at that time, and this would have been the late 1700s, it was pornographic. It was pornographic. So none of this is new. I think it's silly to think you're going to be above it. I don't mean to be insulting. I'm just telling you the truth. I don't know where Republicans, where Christian Republicans got this idea that we're supposed to stay above it. All we do is campaign on the positive. I would like to remind you people. Most of you people out there, most of you Republicans out there who are saying, well, we shouldn't be dinging each other up. We shouldn't be ⁓ doing negative campaigning. ⁓ Most of you Republicans out there remember John McCain, Barack Obama, 2008. And what did John McCain say? I'm not going to campaign negatively. I'm not going to talk about Obama's, all of his issues, right? And he got crushed. He would have got crushed even more if he hadn't pulled Sarah Palin onto that ticket. And she got a lot of the evangelical base to get out people who weren't going to come out for John McCain because they felt he was so milk toast. And he was, and he got crushed. And we got eight years of Obama and that nearly crushed us. We're only just now realizing what he did to us. That was the result of a candidate who refused to campaign negatively. negatively because I think what you call negative I don't believe is negative. So, ⁓ This is how it is. And Chad's been campaigning negatively too. And still the results for Steve are this. So I just think logically speaking, ⁓ and I know it's hard once you've made a decision, most people can't handle a paradigm shift. I talk about this on my old show, Just Listen to Yourself. You can go back and find those archives. I don't get paid for it anymore, but it was pretty popular. It was an explainer show. And ⁓ I talked about I talked about this issue. Well, I won't go on. Let's go on to Eric Swallow. I think you need to go find, just listen to yourself. And I've got a whole bunch on there. I don't do it anymore. Cause I was a show that was dedicated to persuasion. ⁓ and it's interesting to go back and listen to those archives. I took us through the dark ages on that show, took us through BLM, the Biden administration. I was really trying to figure out a way how we could sift through these ideas and be influential in the arena of ideas while still holding true. to our core values, but also recognizing that we weren't in the majority. ⁓ And after they killed Charlie, I just have no interest in it anymore. I don't want to persuade anymore. I think the people who are persuadable are already here. And the Charlie Kirk's of the world, know, those guys who are out there, those guys and gals who are out there carrying on his work, you know, they're needed and good for them. I just don't think it's my... Please anymore. don't have the temperament for it anymore. My temperament is quickly becoming just hashtag salty. All it is is hashtag salty. Everything is getting on my nerves. All right. Let's go to, let's, let's flip the script here a little bit to Swalwell. All right. Cause this is going to, this is going to be the bulk of our show today. Cause this isn't just about Swalwell. This is about an era of accountability. This is about an entire system that's about to collapse if we do it right. If we do it right and it's gonna be painful. ⁓ Let's do cut two and we're gonna play this sound ⁓ if we can. This is from a victim statement from somebody, a woman who claims she was sexually assaulted by Eric Swalwell. And her story is not, this is not just. He hired me for illicit activities and it got out of hand, or we were drinking together and it got out of hand, or he came on to me and it got out of hand, or he was very flirty and suggestive and inappropriate and it got out of hand. It's not that. This is worse. So let's play this sound. to allegations. She's speaking now in California, Beverly Hills. Let's watch. 2018, while I was living and working as a model in Beverly Hills, and I also owned a fashion software company, I had contact with Eric Swalwell on three separate occasions after meeting him socially. He offered me connections to further my software company. And I also had an interest in local politics. He invited me to two public events. I knew he was married at the time and that his wife was pregnant. He was my friend. On the third occasion, I believe he drugged my drink. I only had one glass of wine. He, we were supposed to go to a political event and he said he needed to get paperwork from his hotel room. When I arrived at his hotel room, I was already incapacitated and I couldn't move my arms or my body. Look at the terror. He raped me. and he choked me. And while he was choking me, I lost consciousness. And I thought I died. I did not consent to any sexual activity. Although I did not undergo a rape kit, at the time I disclosed the assault to the people closest to me. I also recorded these events in my handwritten calendar. The assault and its impact were later documented during my therapy sessions at a sexual assault center. I knew Eric Swalwell was a creep. probably cross the line. Some of the girls in those videos were probably underage, allegedly. but this is something different. He should be in jail and we need to make sure he goes to jail. He has to go to jail. You know what? This is why it matters to say when things are wrong and to demand that wrong be rectified when it happens. We have been incrementalized into this. Bill Clinton. I was a young woman when the Clinton scandal broke, but I remember it very clearly. I wasn't that young. I was in college and I can, I can clearly remember Bill Clinton. Monica Lewinsky, the cigar, the blue dress, all the gross stuff. And what did the culture do with that? Right? Republicans and conservatives said, this is gross, everybody. This is, this is disgusting representation of the office. He did disgusting things in the office. We can't allow this to stand because this man represents the flag. This man represents every human being in this country. We can't let it stand. And what did the left do? They immediately embraced the Clintons immediately. You know, I can remember Whoopi Goldberg, for some reason she stands out in my mind as being one of the worst offenders during that time. I just remember so many jokes, so much standup about how Republicans are so ⁓ creepy because they want to talk about what Bill Clinton does in his private sex life. Aren't they perverts? That's how it got spun. Ken Starr. Nobody remembers poor old Ken Starr, who went the way of Joseph McCarthy. God bless our attorney generals. They take on ⁓ a hefty task and they are the first ones kicked to the curb when things go south. But Ken Starr led that probe into Clinton's perjury into all, and Clinton did a lot more than perjure himself. But that was one of the big things they thought they could get both the Clintons on. Perjury. And then real estate fraud, right? ⁓ What was the white? It wasn't white stone. was, I can't remember, but anyway, had a big, a lot of y'all might not even know this, but they had a huge real estate scandal that was actually ⁓ pretty deep and pretty wide and pretty bad. And they got out from under it and the culture embraced them, circled the wagons. And we on the right were told, I wasn't on the right then I was actually on the left, but still we on the right. were told that we were the perverts. We were the perverts for wanting to talk about Bill Clinton's perversion. And that played out because we didn't have an alternate media. All we had then was Rush Limbaugh and Fox News was just coming into play, just coming into play. All we had was Rush Limbaugh and he wasn't enough to beat the narrative. And what did that do? That sunk into the culture. You may think that that was nothing, but it wasn't nothing. It sunk into the culture. It embedded itself. It embedded itself in our national psyche and how we treat politics and everything that slippery slope got slipperier and slipperier. It got worse and worse. And then suddenly a lot of the swamp realized, well, I can engage in poor behavior and get away with it because I've got a lot of people in a media complex. So it'll circle the wagons and then that behavior becomes normalized. It's not that we don't believe that a lot of politicians, especially at the top level are, you know, perverts. There's something about. The type of psyche that you have to have to make it to that level in politics that also includes the personality flaw, you know, I suppose ego, could call it, and that gets flipped into, um, you know, other weaknesses, but there's something about that, that temperament. It's the same temperament that allows you to be a leader, you know, gives you this weakness as well. I'm not excusing it. I'm just saying, I think this is why, part of why it's so common. And. A, it used to be considered distasteful and B, it was usually just a lot of the higher ups who knew, you know, by the time they got there, they really were insulated, but other people didn't dare engage in that. And now the entire, all of Capitol Hill is that, remember Madison Cawthorn, everyone? A lot of you owe him an apology. A lot of you owe him an apology. You know, the young man, good looking young man ran for Congress. I think he was the youngest congressman, congressman in 2022 in a wheelchair. And he blew the whistle on the sex parties at the Capitol, in the Capitol, in the White House. He blew the whistle because he was a normie that went to the swamp and didn't know you're supposed to keep your mouth shut about that stuff, or they will kick you out. You will be expelled from the body. And that's exactly what happened to him. And you know what a lot of conservatives did? A lot of you even watching this show right now, you said, ⁓ Cawthorn blew it. You called him the crazy person. Are ⁓ you called him irresponsible for calling it out and putting the balance of the house in jeopardy and not going along to get along and Yad that's, he was probably one of those people. Some of you all owe Madison Cawthorn an apology. He tried to tell you there's a lot of people there that know it's an open secret. This is what I think this is why it makes it easier for me in this whole gubernatorial race. Cause I've been doing this long enough on the inside. I'm not just a door knocker. I'm not just one of those people who is like, I'm just living my life. And then I'll go out there and campaign every two to four years for a guy. like, no. I have been on the inside and I have met some of your heroes and to a person, none of them are. And most of them you wouldn't want to hang out with, you know, the people you see me hanging out with are like the cool people because I just really can't tolerate a lot of fakes. So if you see me hanging with somebody, they're probably cool, but there's a lot of you would be deeply disappointed to know what some of your favorite politicians and political. commentators are into and what they get up to in DC, what gets normalized there, all that to say that this has been allowed to steep and seep into our culture for decades now. And we created an entire swamp built around this. Why would a dork like Eric Swallow imagine he could get away with this? Like, look at that guy. He's got fat kid written all over him, right? insecure kid that founded, that's what all politics is, and we're going to talk about this too later, TMZ, hello, going to DC, that insecure kids who got bullied a lot and didn't like things being unfair. Some of us, I wasn't a fat kid, but bullied kid, some of us went into politics because we don't like the injustice of it all. And some of us went into politics because we didn't like being pushed aside and we wanted to be someone important. Same goes for comedians, by the way. Eric Swalwell is just a broken, bullied fat kid who found a way to be accepted, who found a way to be cool. And I feel like you could see that in every one of his videos. We should have pulled up ⁓ some of his stupid campaign videos that he does. Or when Trump first took office and then he decided the great play was to do TikToks from the workout bench, like a fricking dork. What's Trump doing? I'm F-Ice, F-Trump. What a dork. How did he think, how did he imagine for one second he would get away with this behavior, let alone rape? It's because the culture in DC has been so degraded and the media complex has been so corrupted. The whole swamp has been so swampy that you genuinely believe you can get away with it. I think I said this on the show yesterday. I was talking to ⁓ Marlee Hornick from United for Freedom and they do ⁓ ballot auditing and they do voter integrity stuff. And she was working with some on some teacher union stuff in New Jersey. And she said, here are the stuff that you would see there. ⁓ It's blatant. They don't even try to hide it. Like school board members texting or emailing teachers unions and Congress people and on their Gmail, regular Gmail, just saying stuff like, know, Hey, we're going to give this guy a bribe. Hey, we're going to embezzle this guy just out there in the open. She said, so blatant. said, how can that be? And she said, well, because I'm sitting here talking to you about it, right? They're not being prosecuted, right? It's just, it's become so much a part of the way things are done. They don't think they're going to get caught. Actually, that's good news for us. That's their, that's their Achilles heels, Achilles heel, excuse me, at this point. They don't think they're going to be caught. And so they make big mistakes. The problem is us. The problem is we, the people, do we have the will? Do we have the will? And we haven't had the will. to change it. But I think that's changing for a lot of reasons. One reason is Nick Shirley, but not Nick Shirley. know Nick Shirley is like the Johnny come lately, but it's been, it's been years of people like Nick, citizen journalists who have been out there hitting the streets, pounding the pavement, getting the stories. The right wing knew about Eric Swallow forever. We've known about Eric forever, but we've had almost zero voice in media up until the last couple of years. So again, all that stuff just got swept under the rug. ⁓ you have to have people who are, who are willing to say the hard things and, do the hard things. The people have to have the will to make this happen. And I think we're there. I think we do. Eric's resignation is not going to be enough, right? It's not going to be enough. He resigned because he's trying to avoid prosecution. And in the old America, it would work. In the golden age of America, it's not going to work. and more people are going to go down and more people need to go down. I saw Ruben Gallego, Senator from Arizona, Democrat Senator, another frigging dork. Another fat kid, insecure, bullied dork who went into politics and is a gross creeper. Ruben, we know about you too. You're disgusting and despicable. We know about you and your BFFs with Eric. My opinion, my opinion is that it's Ruben Gallego taking that video in the room where Eric is acting like a total creeper with those girls. Ruben Gallego even came out today and said, I definitely think that jail time is deserved here. I didn't know anything about this and I have text messages from Eric. He's trying to save his own bacon. He's going to say, there's no, there's no, ⁓ you don't have any friends in DC, everybody. If you have a friend, you keep that friend close. He's trying to save his own bacon cause he knows he's next, but guess what? It's not just going to be Democrats, everybody. It's not just going to be Democrats. What did I just finish telling you? I've been doing this job in and out of DC. And I used to live in DC. I was partially raised in Washington, DC. Don't forget. My dad and stepmom worked on the Hill. I went to school on the Hill. It wasn't great back then, but it's still not great, but it's a different kind of not great now. I know DC and I know how this works. I, you know, a lot of times y'all will ask me about people I've met and how great they are. And I'll give you a nice answer. Cause I know you don't want to hear the real one, which is, they do things that you wouldn't like to do, but they vote the right way. And so far that's been enough. But if we're in the era of accountability, a lot of people are going down and it's going to be some people that we like. And I hope it's not, but of course it will be. So everyone is going to have to suck it up and learn your lessons, you know, get a little savvy. Get a little savvy. The type of person you have to run for higher office who can win. They're not going to be perfect. And I've seen how easily the base will split off from a candidate. they beer, just so they hear one little bit of bad news. The base really does expect perfection and what each person considers bad news is different. Some people, you know, wouldn't consider a accusation bad news, but they might consider a tasteless karaoke performance, bad news. And they, and they will walk away like that. The base is fickle. The basis. So people are gonna go down. Are you re I mean, I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm not happy. I worry about what it will mean for the balance of the house and for Trump's agenda. Of course all that, but we cannot move into the golden age with one foot stuck in the swamp. And we're not just talking about men behaving badly here. You just heard that testimony from that woman. Listen, I've heard a lot of me too testimonies over the years. You have too. And some are moving and some are just made up. Some are just women who had a bad date and are trying to get a payout. We've seen that too. I think we've seen enough to know or watching a sincere woman and that woman is still traumatized clearly from this experience. And, know, again, this is just her word. He is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. That's how our system works. But the woman I saw there looked terrified still. And that's a terrifying story. Ladies. Be careful, be careful out there. I can remember Courtney Love saying on the red carpet in the early 2000s, someone cornered her. Courtney Love, she, remember she was making a transition from rock and roll to Hollywood and she was a great actress actually, she still is. She really got the short end of that stick, but she made a mistake, she was on the red carpet. And she was in award season. She was nominated for some awards. That woman is actually very talented. I know a lot of you think she killed Kurt Cobain. I don't know about that. I have no idea. But she was very talented actress. And someone asked her, what advice would you give to young actresses trying to come up in Hollywood? And she said, don't take a private meeting in a hotel room with Harvey Weinstein. And he made sure she never worked again for that one. She was on her way to becoming an Oscar winner. She was on her way to becoming the good Lady Gaga. Lady Gaga is an okay actress and she wants to be an Oscar winning actress. course, all rock stars want to be actors. All actors want to be rock stars. They all think the business on the other side is going to be easier with fewer predators. I don't know. I don't know how any of it works, but that's how it is. ⁓ yeah, ladies, you be careful. Exercise caution, especially in the world of politics. There are older men in this business who will look at younger, naive women and take advantage of your desire to be ⁓ loved and accepted ⁓ and influential. For some women it works, hashtag Kamala Harris, but for others, for most others, it ends up with you being hurt like this woman or having your career or options destroyed because the man will always come out on top in DC. Always. Always. That's just how it works. This is criminal. We need to, I've said this, I've been saying this for weeks now. We actually do need to see some people go to jail. Mr. President, we actually need this. We need this in the voter. We need this in the fraud stuff. We need big names. We need political names. We need this in the fraud stuff. If you're going to win November, we need some arrests. We need to arrest these criminals. We need to make an example of them. We have to renormalize normal. We have to renormalize justice. This isn't just boys behaving badly, boys being boys. This is criminal, disgusting. perverted behavior. We have to stand on print. And that's what the Clinton era did for us. It moved that bar. It shifted the bar. We know that men behave badly in these positions. Like that is nothing new. You should read Maureen Callahan's ⁓ series on the Kennedys. John F. Kennedy Jr. It's hilarious that he's having, know, his reputation is having a renaissance. He's a horrible person. Read her book or even his dad or ⁓ his dad, yeah, JFK, you know, gross, horrible person with a lot of sexual dysfunction. And he took it out on women. ⁓ but we still think of him as one of our greatest presidents. We still think of that era as the era of Camelot. Right. Read that. Like it's not that that stuff wasn't happening. And then we didn't know that men were like this again, read John Adams. All he has to say about John Adams seemed like a pretty good man actually. And he really just couldn't stand perverts, but he, had a lot to say about the perverts in his own government. There used to be a time when a Senator Scott Wiener, y'all know Senator Scott Wiener from up there in San Francisco, appropriately named from an appropriately place, from an appropriate place, San Francisco. He's in line to take the throne from Nancy Pelosi. But you can see there's plenty of images of Scott at, ⁓ pride parades in San Francisco and not just normal pride parades. Like when I was a kid, when I was a young woman and they would say, we just want to be just like you. We want to have families and jobs, just be a normal part of the community, see our parade. And the parades were always full of perversion, naked men and women. parades are always perverted. they want to make the case, I have gay friends who don't go to pride parades because they're perverted. Scott Weiner's got photos out there of him in BDSM attire, leather vests, bare chest, like tight pants walking around holding a leash, holding the leash of a man dressed as a dog on his four legs. There was a time when that would be disqualifying. There was a time when men like that would engage in that, but they'd do it behind closed doors. And when those images were leaked, They would be disgraced forever. They would never be allowed back in office. And now he proudly displays those pictures. My friends, we cannot survive as a culture if that's what we allow to be normalized. It is time to renormalize tradition. It is time to renormalize normal. It is time to renormalize the American way. And that's why I am no longer afraid to stand up and say the truth. I'm no longer afraid, even though I know it might be hurtful to some of my gay friends and family. Some of those people who have ⁓ experienced life on the fringes, right? Some people who disagree with me, like I know what I think is it might be kind of hurtful to some people, but I didn't make the rules. Actually, God did, Jesus did. So I'm not making this stuff up. All I can do is tell you what's right. That's why I wrote the book. because in 2022 I was trying to run for school board and everybody told me that I was sounding too crazy for warning about boys in the girls bathrooms and tampons in the boys bathrooms. And everyone was like, that's a lot, Kira, that's a lot. I told the truth anyway and I lost. don't think I lost. I'm gonna keep saying that. I don't think I lost. I think they cheated. But you know what? I'm glad they did me the favor because some of the times when I go to the school board meetings and I go in there and I say my piece and leave at seven o'clock and I know they've got another six hours of BS, I just think to myself, ooh, better you than me. I'm so glad I didn't win. that you have to be willing to stand up and say the truth. and not be afraid to be disliked or to be called a Karen. Like if somebody cuts in line, you should say something. You don't have to demand that they, you you don't have to, I'm not saying you have to take it to blows and knock somebody out because they cut in line, but you know what? lot of people, a lot of people like that, the people who don't take their shopping carts back to the cart corral, a lot of people like that do it because no one says anything. And that's how we normalize the abnormal. When you see things that are abnormal in public, you should say something and don't be afraid to say something. We don't do that here. That's not how you dress on this occasion. ⁓ we don't talk to each other like that in public. We don't act like that in public. My friend on Andrew Malcolm, the great Andrew Malcolm from red state. ⁓ one of the old school LA time opinion writers, 80 years old, been writing forever. Told us a story once about how when he was a young man, he said something rude to his neighbor or what. what his father perceived as rude for a young man in the thirties and ⁓ pulled him by his ear and he said, Hey, we don't do that here. And Andrew said that is the principle that he grew up with. When he shared that with me, I thought there is nothing, there is nothing more descriptive when you want to correct somebody than to say, Hey, we don't do that here. We don't do that here. This is why, you know, when I went to the chapel and DFW and I made that video that went viral, my experience with the Muslims, all their mosques, we need to start saying, hey, we don't do that here. We don't do Islam in America. We can get rid of that too, by the way. I know a lot of you are like, well, we have the first amendment. We have the freedom of religion clause. We do, we do. ⁓ but there are ways, again, if you there where there is a will, there is a way. And our founding fathers left us every opportunity to get rid of the things we don't want in this country. You can do it legally and you could do it in a way that respects and honors our, our constitution. takes men and women of character. and strong will. But we're going to have to do it or we're going to fall. We're going to fall to Islam if we don't start. And that means part of that is everybody being in the battle, standing up and saying, actually, this isn't okay in this chapel. This isn't okay in this community, this mosque, 80 mosques. We have 80 mosques in Orange County. How? Why? Stand up and say the truth right where you are. The truth is contagious and I'll prove it to you. Let's go to number six, TMZ. Guys, you know what I had to do last night? I had to go ask Grok if the government was still shut down. It is, by the way. don't know if you know. The government's still shut down. We're still in a shutdown. Democrats are going to take us all the way to hell to win. They're going to, they're, they, they hate you. They hate you. They, they hate you. They don't care. This is how bad it is. All right. So TMZ announced yesterday, they're, they're opening a DC bureau. If you recall, TMZ has been dedicated to shaming. shaming the DC politicians who are out there on vacation, spending time with their families while refusing to pay TSA, while refusing to reopen the government. I don't even know which parts of the government are closed down anymore. I don't even care. But TMZ decided to do that. Well, it was so popular that they realized maybe, you know, there's a whole other kind of Hollywood going on in DC. Maybe they should cover it. So they opened. TMZ DC last week and they will be covering Capitol Hill. TMZ ran into Senator Lindsey Graham who was on his way into his office Monday at the Russell building and asked about the now infamous photo of him at Fantasyland in Disney World clutching a bubble wand during his two week spring break. The Senator was not in a chatty mood. You don't have to play the rest. ⁓ No, he was not in a chatty move. mood. TMZ also, ⁓ I didn't do that one. TMZ also put out a post, ⁓ recently, ⁓ or not TMZ. I'm sorry. The polymarkets, polymarkets put out a post today saying that, ⁓ I don't know if this is true, but several Congress men are set to, ⁓ resign this week. TMZ is in town working. I'm not in frame anymore, Scott. Thank you. So, ugly Hollywood, they say that politics is just Hollywood for the ugly. I beg to differ. But not totally untrue. They say that politics is Hollywood for the ugly. Well, welcome to Hollywood, ugly Hollywood. Now you're gonna get the Hollywood treatment, which is what you should have had all the time. But again, the truth is contagious. Why is TMZ there? Nick Shirley. Why was Nick Shirley there? David the old guy in Minnesota who's doing that work all by himself, all by his lonesome for years, for a decade, for 10 years. For 15 years, I have been screaming about the trans delusion and the trans incursion into our schools. For 15 years. In 2013 is when we got the bathroom bills here in California and the curriculum. And I went on every show that would take me, Bon Gino's show. I went on shows in DC, every show that would take me. And I read them the curriculum and I read them the school lessons and I said, this is here. And everyone said, that's crazy. Even conservatives said, that sounds crazy. You sound crazy. You sound like a right wing fringe nut job. And now here we are, but I never stopped telling the truth. Even when people called me crazy, even when people threatened me, even when people followed me and my kids around town. I never stop telling the truth. I'll never stop telling the truth. The truth is contagious. And if I've learned anything from 2026 is that if you keep telling the truth, you'll be rewarded. There is reward for the truth. It just might not come when you expect it. It might not come when you want it. People will have to wait years and decades for vindication. Don't, don't flip-flop because you want to be on the side of the popular and the truth is suddenly unpopular. TMZ is going to cause is going to cause some congressmen to retire. Why? Because the truth is contagious because there are four lights. Or am I check these out there? Where they at? One of the greatest episodes on TV, Star Trek Next Generation Captain Picard is kidnapped by the Romulans. He's tortured for months. It's an incredible performance by Patrick Stewart. I mean this, I mean this in all of TV and film, this might go down as one of the greatest performances of all time. And it made one of the greatest episodes. And it was a very deep episode. These days there's no, everything's so shallow. It was very deep, but he's tortured and all they, tortured him obviously his body, but all they wanted him to do is to tell his, is to tell his captors that he sees five lights, not four. And you, the audience sees the entire time, there are four lights and they pull him in there and they shock him, they starve him, they pour hot water on him. They pull out his fingernails, they torture him. And then they ask him every time, how many lights are there? He says, there's four lights, there's four lights, there's four lights, but they want him to say five. And it gets so bad that his captor says, please, please. I don't want, I respect you, I actually respect you. I don't want to have to torture you anymore. All you have to do is tell us that there are five lights. And in the end, this broken, bruised, battered Captain Picard is led in for his final torture session. It's murder or five lights. And he starts to say five lights because he just can't take it anymore. But he gets some kind of win. And then in the end he just finds it and he takes this deep breath and he gives this guttural animal scream. Like just again, an incredible performance for Patrick Stewart. There are four lights. And then rescue comes. I think about that episode three times a week. When I want to give up, I think about that. When I see people telling me there are five lights and I know there are four lights, I think about that. And I think about how easy it would be to just flip, how easy it would be. I think about that all the time as a black conservative. You know, I don't make a lot of money in this business. I am not famous. How easy would it be for me to just decide to flip on Republicans? write a little article about how Republicans are actually racist. Trump is actually racist. And I'm sorry for being a bad black conservative. I'd have a show on MS now or whatever they call themselves in a day. But it's not the truth. There aren't five lights. There are four lights. and rescue, doesn't come when you're feeling comfortable. Actually, I'm trying to think of one time in my life where rescue, where salvation has come when I have felt comfortable. Do you deserve it is the question you should be asking. Do you deserve the rescue? And the rescue is for the, is for the holdout for the people who are willing to say there are four lights, even though I know that it's causing me pain to tell the truth, even though it caused me pain, it caused me to lose friends, family, even to stand up in 2013 and say, no, boys can't be girls. And this is not right. And this is coming to our school curriculum right now. It's here. It cost me a lot then, it cost me when I ran in 2022. I took a big hit on that one and I'm only just now recovering. but there are four lights and you won't ever tell me otherwise. I don't make the rules and I don't make reality. God does that. I don't make the word, God does that. I can only tell you what the word is and I can only tell you what the truth is. Stand up for the truth, where you are today. You don't have to be a Nick Shirley. You don't have to be TMZ. You don't even have to pull your camera out of your hand. When you see something wrong, say something. You don't have to stand there until it's rectified. You don't have to demand that it's rectified, but you should at least be shaming and blaming and naming. Somebody cuts the line, you tell them, I saw you cut the line and that's not cool. We don't do that here. Someone tries to steal something in the store in front of you, you tell them, no, we don't do that here. Someone tries to act a damn fool and public in front of you while you're sitting there with your kids. Don't look away, men stand up. We don't do that here. Again, you don't have to totally rectify the situation, put someone in handcuffs, drag them off. The very act of you standing up and saying, no, this is not normal. It's powerful. It's powerful. We should shame people like Scott Weiner for the way he acts in public and calls that normal. He's disgusting. We should call him disgusting at every juncture. What a disgusting human being. It's not normal. That's not normal. Would you let a man like that around your kids in your classroom? Anyone who says yes is not normal. Shun them. The golden age is here, my friends, but the golden age is gonna require every one of us, not just Donald Trump. You cannot depend on that one man. He's kind of busy right now. I don't know if you've noticed. The golden age is here, but the only way you're gonna push back the darkness is to shine a light on the truth and to say, we don't do that here. We don't do it. If you wanna be an American, you can't act like this and we can't have you here, like this. We don't do that here. The Swalwell thing is getting icky, it's getting ickier. I want to see some public prosecution. And I will say it again, and I'm going to keep saying it. I want to see some public hangings because I'm going to bet that some of these members, including maybe Swalwell, have been engaged in actual treason. We've already known about his Chinese spy girlfriend. It's a joke now. It's a joke. It shouldn't be a joke. It's very serious. That's traitorous. It's like a mother killing her own child. It just simply, it's so far outside the bounds of humanity. It's so far outside the boundaries of patriotism. A person like that cannot be allowed to be in our midst. They will only infect our midst. Have to kick out the infections. All right, I'm going to go. You make sure you follow me everywhere. Tell me what you think of the swallow mess. Who's next? Ruben Gallego. He's trying to save his bacon, but he is next. He is next. I think he is on tape somewhere doing some other stuff. And this is him. trying to save his job. You know what, y'all? You should stop thinking about trying to save your jobs, and you should think about trying to save your freedom. That's what you should be doing. Let's see some public hangings, and then let's normalize that. Let's normalize ⁓ being hung for treason again. Let's do that. Let's get to the golden age. where people who commit shameful acts are allowed to be called out for those shameful acts in public, and we shame them publicly, and we shun them publicly. Let's get back to that America. And maybe everyone will work just a little harder to hold their decorum and keep their acts together and act like decent human beings, at least while they're in public. All right. Follow me everywhere. ⁓ just Keira Davis.com for my work, all that. I'll be dropping an article today as well. don't forget that the truth matters and the best disinfectant is sunshine. So go out there and bring on the sunshine. Peace out. I did stop. Bye. I'm trying to smile like a dork.
