Transcript
- 0:10Speaker 1: Tonight, the police officer convicted of murdering George Floyd is
- 0:14Speaker 1: asking a court to throw the entire case out. It's
- 0:17Speaker 1: his third attempt, and this time well the richest man
- 0:20Speaker 1: in the world is advocating for him, posting on X
- 0:23Speaker 1: Free Chauvin and the President just struck a deal. He says,
- 0:26Speaker 1: We'll slash the price of your hamburger meat, but their
- 0:29Speaker 1: concerns that American ranchers could end up paying the price.
- 0:32Speaker 1: More on that later. But first, Cora was five years old,
- 0:37Speaker 1: Dawson was three, Callen was eight months old, still a baby,
- 0:42Speaker 1: and on a January night in twenty twenty three, then
- 0:44Speaker 1: a quiet town south of Boston, their mother strangled all
- 0:49Speaker 1: three of them, one at a time with exercise bands.
- 0:52Speaker 2: Shouldn't deny it.
- 0:53Speaker 1: Her own lawyer stood up in court and admitted that
- 0:56Speaker 1: she did it. This week, while a jury decide whether
- 1:01Speaker 1: Lindsey Clancy is a murderer or just a woman who
- 1:05Speaker 1: lost her mind, something is happening on the courthouse steps
- 1:10Speaker 1: that's starting to gain more traction than the case itself.
- 1:15Speaker 2: The facts of the.
- 1:16Speaker 1: Case really aren't in dispute with the Clancy killed her
- 1:19Speaker 1: three children, whether her defense argues is that she shouldn't
- 1:24Speaker 1: be held responsible for it because she was in the
- 1:26Speaker 1: grip of severe postpartum psychosis, that she'd been over medicated,
- 1:32Speaker 1: that she heard a voice telling her to do it.
- 1:35Speaker 1: Prosecutors argue the opposite, that she planned it, that she
- 1:39Speaker 1: sent her husband out on an errand to buy herself time,
- 1:44Speaker 1: that she wanted to take those children with her when
- 1:47Speaker 1: she tried to end her own life that same night.
- 1:51Speaker 2: Now she survived.
- 1:53Speaker 1: She went out on a second story window, and now
- 1:56Speaker 1: she's paralyzed in a wheelchair.
- 1:58Speaker 2: On trial for first murder. Twelve jurors will decide her.
- 2:01Speaker 1: Fate any day. So let's look at what happened outside
- 2:06Speaker 1: the courthouse yesterday. Because while the jury sat inside, roughly
- 2:11Speaker 1: three hundred people, nearly all of them women, gathered in Plymouth, Massachusetts.
- 2:16Speaker 1: They wore pink It wore shirts that read believe and
- 2:21Speaker 1: she needed help.
- 2:22Speaker 2: And peace for Lindsey.
- 2:25Speaker 1: They waved flags from other countries to show support from
- 2:28Speaker 1: the global community. They stood in a circle and said
- 2:32Speaker 1: the Lord's Prayer and raised their arms and made hearts
- 2:37Speaker 1: with their hands. And when Lindsay Clancy's defense attorney walked
- 2:41Speaker 1: up to that courthouse.
- 2:42Speaker 2: The crowd broke out into applause, look.
- 2:57Speaker 1: A rally, applause for the defense of a woman who
- 3:00Speaker 1: strangled her three small children. The organizer stood in front
- 3:03Speaker 1: of that crowd and told them to trust the lawyer
- 3:06Speaker 1: because he was.
- 3:08Speaker 2: He had Lindsay's fight, Lindsay's fight.
- 3:11Speaker 1: Somewhere in that sentence, three dead children just quietly vanished.
- 3:15Speaker 2: It was really about Lindsay, right.
- 3:17Speaker 1: And it isn't only the people who came there in
- 3:19Speaker 1: person and pink to cheer for her on TikTok.
- 3:23Speaker 2: There's this odd trend right now of.
- 3:25Speaker 1: Women filling in themselves, cradling their babies, tearing up, capturing
- 3:31Speaker 1: the video same Lindsay, Same, drawing a parallel from their
- 3:36Speaker 1: own hard days as a mom to a woman who
- 3:38Speaker 1: strangled her three kids.
- 3:40Speaker 3: Look indicated further on into her travels, I am completely
- 3:44Speaker 3: overwhelmed trying to take care of the kids. I'm drowning
- 3:47Speaker 3: every day. I feel guilty that I'm spending my family's
- 3:50Speaker 3: money and not making any I feel like I spend
- 3:52Speaker 3: way too much. She wrote that right, I'm tired of
- 3:56Speaker 3: I'm terrified of Callen getting sick. He's a sick baby,
- 3:59Speaker 3: a sick baby. Is miss He's sick now with a
- 4:01Speaker 3: double ear infection, clearly has a belly ache. It's miserable.
- 4:04Speaker 3: I feel like the other kids are going to get
- 4:06Speaker 3: him sick all winter long. She wrote that right correct.
- 4:09Speaker 1: There's also this random trend of angry women throwing ice
- 4:13Speaker 1: into their bathtub, and the money followed. In about a week,
- 4:18Speaker 1: strangers have poured over a million dollars into a fund
- 4:23Speaker 1: for Clancy's family, more than twenty seven thousand donations from
- 4:27Speaker 1: as far as way as Australia. In the UK nearly
- 4:30Speaker 1: a million dollars in the wake of the one thing
- 4:34Speaker 1: a mother is never supposed to do. Now, look postparton
- 4:39Speaker 1: psychosis and depression. It's genuinely a terrifying medical condition. It
- 4:43Speaker 1: strikes maybe one or two mothers in a thousand. The anxiety,
- 4:47Speaker 1: the intrusive thoughts, the exhaustion, there's no.
- 4:50Speaker 2: Bottom to it. It's a real illness.
- 4:52Speaker 1: But they're suffering from it, and when they are, they
- 4:56Speaker 1: don't do what Clancy did. When you're struggling with a
- 5:01Speaker 1: sick baby, or not sleeping or long hours, you don't
- 5:05Speaker 1: do what Clancy did. We're not talking about the sleepless
- 5:10Speaker 1: nights or the difficulty of being a young parent.
- 5:14Speaker 2: We're talking about postpartum depression.
- 5:18Speaker 1: We're talking about on one side, the murder and the
- 5:22Speaker 1: celebration of the murder, and somehow pairing it with postpartum depression,
- 5:28Speaker 1: normalizing it as if this is some sort of rational outcome.
- 5:35Speaker 1: There's a canyon between compassion and a coronation. You can
- 5:39Speaker 1: grieve for a broken woman and still refuse to crown
- 5:42Speaker 1: her a folk hero.
- 5:44Speaker 2: Real compassion grieves quietly.
- 5:46Speaker 1: It doesn't put on a pink shirt and cheer, and
- 5:49Speaker 1: it doesn't caption a video of your own child.
- 5:54Speaker 2: With the name of a woman who killed hers.
- 5:57Speaker 1: And a whole lot of people out there, they seem
- 6:00Speaker 1: to have lost the ability to tell those two things apart.
- 6:02Speaker 1: Consider what's happening in this country right now, because this
- 6:05Speaker 1: same month, in that same corner of America, the governor
- 6:09Speaker 1: of Massachusetts sat down at a desk in front of
- 6:11Speaker 1: a cheering room of women and signed a law wiping
- 6:15Speaker 1: out the women on abortion, allowing it right up to
- 6:17Speaker 1: the day of birth at a doctor's discretion.
- 6:19Speaker 2: One doctor, that's it.
- 6:20Speaker 1: Applause smiles for a bill about ending a baby's life.
- 6:25Speaker 1: In nine months and now a few weeks later, a
- 6:28Speaker 1: few states over one hundreds more applauding for a woman
- 6:31Speaker 1: who killed her three kids they were already born.
- 6:35Speaker 2: Now I don't believe those are two separate stories. I
- 6:38Speaker 2: think they're the same one.
- 6:39Speaker 1: A culture that has slowly carefully taught itself to look
- 6:43Speaker 1: at a dead child and find a reason a clap.
- 6:46Speaker 1: They'll tell you it's all just mental health, compassion, just
- 6:49Speaker 1: believing women. But there's something underneath it that's colder than compassion,
- 6:55Speaker 1: and didn't just begin in that courtroom, and it won't
- 6:58Speaker 1: end there. Three children are dead court Dawson Klin. They'll
- 7:02Speaker 1: never start kindergarten, or learn to drive, never hold children
- 7:06Speaker 1: of their own. A jury is about to decide what
- 7:08Speaker 1: their mother deserves. I can tell you what I think
- 7:11Speaker 1: she deserves.
- 7:12Speaker 2: But out on.
- 7:13Speaker 1: Those court house steps, the verdict is already in. They
- 7:17Speaker 1: showed up in pink, and they decided the woman who
- 7:21Speaker 1: killed these children's she was the one who was wronged.
- 7:24Speaker 1: And I promise you, heading to November, this will be
- 7:27Speaker 1: yet another rally cry for the Democratic Socialists to divide
- 7:32Speaker 1: women from the rest of America, another manufactured crisis that
- 7:35Speaker 1: can be solved by a radical revolution and bigger government, and.
- 7:41Speaker 2: I have a feeling that this is what's happening here.
- 7:45Speaker 2: You just wait and see.
- 7:47Speaker 1: All I know is this when you start losing respect
- 7:50Speaker 1: for life at all stages, it's a slippery slope to
- 7:54Speaker 1: pink shirts and demonstrations outside of an alleged murderer's courtroom.
- 8:00Speaker 1: Still ahead, the officer convicted in George Floyd's death files
- 8:04Speaker 1: to overturn the whole thing.
- 8:06Speaker 2: Elon must says, set him free, and I'll walk you
- 8:09Speaker 2: through whether he has a chance.
- 8:11Speaker 1: Then the President's new deal to bring down beef prices
- 8:14Speaker 1: in why America's ranchers are a little concerned about it,
- 8:16Speaker 1: and the first Lady turned a charity for foster kids
- 8:19Speaker 1: into a race car screaming around the National Mall this
- 8:22Speaker 1: weekend doing a lot of great work. Stay with me,
- 8:24Speaker 1: I got all the details.

- 9:08Speaker 1: Remember the Summer of Love, Riots, buildings set on fire,
- 9:13Speaker 1: a wave of violence, death and destruction.
- 9:16Speaker 2: BLM. What is the love? BLM?
- 9:19Speaker 1: It has been six years since that infamous video surfaced,
- 9:23Speaker 1: the one that appeared to show Minneapolis police officer Derek
- 9:26Speaker 1: Chauvin kneeling on George Floyd's neck for roughly nine and
- 9:29Speaker 1: a half minutes. April twenty twenty one, in Minnesota, jury
- 9:33Speaker 1: convicted him of second degree murder and a judge sentenced
- 9:36Speaker 1: him to nearly twenty two and a half years. Chauvin's
- 9:39Speaker 1: lawyers filed a petition this week to erase his murder
- 9:42Speaker 1: conviction entirely, to rule that the trial that put him
- 9:46Speaker 1: away it shouldn't happen at all. The autopsy in the
- 9:50Speaker 1: case found fentanyl and methphetamine in Floyd's system, and Chauvin's
- 9:54Speaker 1: defense has argued for years that the drugs, not the
- 10:00Speaker 1: are what really killed him.
- 10:03Speaker 2: That fight never went away. His lawyers point to what
- 10:05Speaker 2: happened at the trial itself. The judge refused to move
- 10:09Speaker 2: it out of Minneapolis, even as the.
- 10:10Speaker 1: City braves for riots. The middle of jury selection, the
- 10:14Speaker 1: city announced a twenty seven million dollar settlement with Floyd's family,
- 10:18Speaker 1: and two seated jurors were dismissed after admitting it destroyed
- 10:22Speaker 1: their impartiality. The jury was never sequestered, so they watched
- 10:25Speaker 1: a second police shooting and fresh unrest unfold nearby in
- 10:29Speaker 1: the middle of the trial, and then days before the verdict,
- 10:33Speaker 1: a sitting member of Congress went to the streets of
- 10:37Speaker 1: Minnesota and said this. We got to stay on the
- 10:40Speaker 1: street and we've got to get more active.
- 10:44Speaker 2: We've got to get more confrontational. We've got to make
- 10:47Speaker 2: sure that they think they know that.
- 10:49Speaker 5: We need business.
- 10:50Speaker 1: He's saying, behind that math, We're gonna get more confrontational.
- 10:54Speaker 1: She's telling a crowd to escalate if Chovin walked. And
- 10:58Speaker 1: this isn't just conservative crime foul. The trial judge himself,
- 11:01Speaker 1: Peter Cahill, said from the bench that waters comments may
- 11:05Speaker 1: have handed Chauvin the grounds to get that entire.
- 11:07Speaker 2: Verdict overturned on appeal.
- 11:09Speaker 1: So this week, Chauvin's attorney, Greg Joseph filed a thirty
- 11:13Speaker 1: one page petition asking the Minnesota Court of Appeals to
- 11:16Speaker 1: dismiss the case outright, and his argument goes deeper than
- 11:19Speaker 1: anyone jurk. He says the charges were never lawfully brought
- 11:23Speaker 1: in the first place, that no grand jury was ever
- 11:25Speaker 1: convened to weigh the evidence, and that Governor Tim Walls
- 11:31Speaker 1: improperly handed the prosecution to his own Attorney General, Keith
- 11:35Speaker 1: Ellison to get the murder charge. The public was demanding.
- 11:39Speaker 1: Joseph's words, the entire trial was a fraud. Now even
- 11:42Speaker 1: Elon Musk has chimed in posting simply free Chauvin and
- 11:47Speaker 1: calling the conviction unjust. This is Chauvin's third attempt to
- 11:50Speaker 1: get these charges thrown out. The Supreme Court it's already
- 11:53Speaker 1: turned him down twice, and lower courts have rejected petitions before.
- 11:57Speaker 2: See what happens with this one. To break down what
- 11:59Speaker 2: happens next.
- 12:01Speaker 1: And with this newest attempt to get these charges thrown out,
- 12:03Speaker 1: I'm honored to welcome Lieutenant Randy Sutton, founder of the
- 12:06Speaker 1: Wounded Blue Lieutenant. I think a lot of people think
- 12:11Speaker 1: that this was a political prosecution. A lot of people
- 12:14Speaker 1: believe that he didn't result his actions did not result
- 12:18Speaker 1: in the death of mister Floyd. And hopefully maybe this
- 12:21Speaker 1: is the chance he needs to finally sort of prove
- 12:26Speaker 1: his innocence for real, right.
- 12:29Speaker 6: I certainly hope so, But unfortunately I have my doubts
- 12:32Speaker 6: considering the politics involved with this. We have seen this
- 12:37Speaker 6: play out literally since the first day that the video
- 12:42Speaker 6: of George Floyd's arrest surfaced. I have never ever seen
- 12:47Speaker 6: a more political prosecution of a law enforcement officer in
- 12:52Speaker 6: my entire career. And I've seen plenty of law enforcement
- 12:57Speaker 6: officers falsely accused, false the uh prosecuted, But this is
- 13:03Speaker 6: the worst. This is the worst example that I have
- 13:07Speaker 6: ever seen. Derek Chauvin did absolutely nothing wrong and uh,
- 13:13Speaker 6: the three officers with him he were equally innocent. And
- 13:17Speaker 6: this was a uh. This was this was the biggest
- 13:20Speaker 6: miscarriage of justice that I've ever seen as a as
- 13:24Speaker 6: not just as a as a law enforcement officer, but
- 13:27Speaker 6: as a human being.
- 13:28Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 13:29Speaker 1: And you know, we had the big old riots, the BLM,
- 13:31Speaker 1: the Communist organization, put all this energy into making sure
- 13:35Speaker 1: the memory of George Floyd spread I remember his funeral.
- 13:38Speaker 2: They were in the middle of COVID.
- 13:39Speaker 1: Nobody can go and see the relatives dying in a hospital.
- 13:42Speaker 1: But yet George Floyd's allowed to have a room filled
- 13:44Speaker 1: with hundreds of people, all close together, no social distancing.
- 13:48Speaker 1: They erected statues for him. Well, Derek Chauvin was painted
- 13:52Speaker 1: as a murderer and now he sits in jail. And
- 13:56Speaker 1: the reality of this is, even if he gets actual
- 14:00Speaker 1: justice in his case, this country would be turned upside
- 14:03Speaker 1: down again. Right, the BLM will turn back out, and
- 14:06Speaker 1: even if he is able to walk free, he'll never
- 14:09Speaker 1: be able to live free in this country again, based
- 14:12Speaker 1: on what they've done to him.
- 14:13Speaker 6: Right, his life is absolutely ruined. Remember, he was also
- 14:18Speaker 6: almost murdered in jail as well. He was stabbed numerous times.
- 14:22Speaker 6: Now here, The reality here is that there was there
- 14:26Speaker 6: were so many aspects of this case that were that
- 14:31Speaker 6: were grounds for a dismissal and and overturning that between
- 14:38Speaker 6: the medical examiner being urged, not just urged, but being
- 14:45Speaker 6: forced to change his medical examiners finding to the assistant
- 14:52Speaker 6: police chief being caught on the on the stand lying
- 14:56Speaker 6: about the training that Derek Chauvin actually received. That technique
- 15:04Speaker 6: was of kneeling and by the way, he wasn' kneeling
- 15:06Speaker 6: on his neck, he was kneeling on his back. This
- 15:09Speaker 6: whole thing was was literally made up because of the
- 15:14Speaker 6: the politics of this and Ellison Keith Ellison, I mean,
- 15:18Speaker 6: you talk about an individual who shouldn't be prosecuting anything.
- 15:24Speaker 6: This was for. This is literally ordered from the governor
- 15:27Speaker 6: down to to literally silence anybody that didn't go along
- 15:34Speaker 6: with the realities of George Floyd's death. George Floyd career criminal,
- 15:40Speaker 6: violent individual, took all the all the fatal doses of
- 15:45Speaker 6: drugs that he that he took, and then they people
- 15:50Speaker 6: literally deified him. It's it's it's unbelievable now for anybody
- 15:55Speaker 6: that it really wants to dig deep into this case.
- 15:59Speaker 6: A journalist Liz Colin produced a film that is the
- 16:04Speaker 6: quintessential film and authority on this. It's called The Fall
- 16:10Speaker 6: of Minneapolis, and I urge everybody to take a look
- 16:13Speaker 6: at it. If you want to get your blood up
- 16:15Speaker 6: and see the true injustice of what took place, check
- 16:18Speaker 6: out this documentary film. It will make you crazy.
- 16:22Speaker 2: Look.
- 16:22Speaker 1: They turned a man who was a criminal, who was
- 16:25Speaker 1: on drugs, who was fighting with police officers into a hero,
- 16:30Speaker 1: and they demonized a man who was out there serving
- 16:33Speaker 1: the community, and look at all of the long term
- 16:37Speaker 1: effects to defunding police and everything that came after. This
- 16:40Speaker 1: was really just such a political stunt that destroyed so
- 16:44Speaker 1: many lives.
- 16:45Speaker 2: And look, said.
- 16:47Speaker 1: Tim wall State, surprise, surprise, Lieutenan, you do so much
- 16:50Speaker 1: great work.
- 16:51Speaker 2: Thank you so much for being here.
- 16:52Speaker 1: If people want to go and learn more about the
- 16:54Speaker 1: Wounded Blue where would you let them go.
- 16:56Speaker 6: Well, let me just say one other thing that this
- 16:58Speaker 6: has had a long term effect on the emotional, mental,
- 17:03Speaker 6: and psychological health of American law enforcement officers around this nation.
- 17:07Speaker 6: This was a watershed moment when it came down to
- 17:11Speaker 6: the destruction of the faith that law enforcement officers had
- 17:17Speaker 6: in the system itself. So I urge people to go
- 17:19Speaker 6: to the Wounded Blue dot org. That's the Wounded Blue
- 17:22Speaker 6: dot Org. See who we are, see what we do.
- 17:25Speaker 6: If you're a law enforcement officer and you're struggling, remember
- 17:28Speaker 6: our motto, never forgotten, never alone. We're here for you.
- 17:31Speaker 2: Lieutenant. Thank you so much for being here, and thank
- 17:33Speaker 2: you for all the work you do.
- 17:35Speaker 6: Thank you.
- 17:37Speaker 1: Coming up, Beef just hit a record seven dollars a pound.

- 17:51Speaker 1: any long term impacts for the beef industry.

- 19:44Speaker 2: Beef in this country? Though it just hit a.
- 19:46Speaker 1: Record nearly seven dollars a pounds, so it's more expensive
- 19:49Speaker 1: to make that burger. It's someone with sixty percent from

- 20:07Speaker 1: the next ninety days, the United States will let up
- 20:10Speaker 1: to three hundred thousand metric tons of ground beef. I
- 20:14Speaker 1: didn't realize we measured ground beef and metric tons. But
- 20:18Speaker 1: it's coming into the country without the tariff that normally
- 20:21Speaker 1: kicked in above a set limit, a tariff that can
- 20:24Speaker 1: run north of twenty five percent.
- 20:26Speaker 2: When Trump says he secured.
- 20:27Speaker 1: A commitment that this imported beef gets sold to you
- 20:31Speaker 1: at a twenty five percent discount underneath market rates and
- 20:35Speaker 1: his words, he says, today I concluded a deal to
- 20:37Speaker 1: substantially lower the price of ground beef for working American families.
- 20:41Speaker 2: What important note for the record, President didn't say which
- 20:44Speaker 2: countries the beef is coming from.
- 20:46Speaker 1: Who exactly made that pricing commitment, or how it gets enforced.
- 20:50Speaker 1: Once it hits a grocery store, a formal order is
- 20:53Speaker 1: coming to put it in motion.
- 20:55Speaker 2: So why is beef this expensive to begin with? It
- 21:00Speaker 2: comes down to cattle.
- 21:01Speaker 1: American beef herd is the smollets. It has been since
- 21:05Speaker 1: the nineteen fifties, years of drought, punishing feed costs and
- 21:09Speaker 1: ranchers thinning their herds, trying to supply while demand stayed strong.
- 21:13Speaker 2: They'll forget that screwworm scare two.
- 21:16Speaker 1: Now, look, the cows have the same appetite, higher prices
- 21:20Speaker 1: and rebuilding a herd.
- 21:21Speaker 2: It's not something you.
- 21:21Speaker 1: Can just do very quickly fix years. And here's the
- 21:25Speaker 1: benefit to American people with this deal. It's simple, it's immediate,
- 21:28Speaker 1: it's cheaper beef, and right now, for families getting hammered
- 21:31Speaker 1: it to check out, they can use some cheaper prices now.
- 21:34Speaker 2: It's temporary, just ninety days, built as.
- 21:36Speaker 1: A bridge to carry consumers through while American ranchers slowly rebuild,
- 21:40Speaker 1: and it pumps supply into a genuine shortage. And politically,
- 21:45Speaker 1: it aimed straight at the number one issue on voters'
- 21:47Speaker 1: minds heading into November, affordability, the cost of groceries, the
- 21:51Speaker 1: cost of meat. If it works the way it's advertised,
- 21:54Speaker 1: a family paying seven dollars a pound could be playing
- 21:57Speaker 1: closer to five.
- 21:57Speaker 2: It's a big deal.
- 21:59Speaker 1: But not everyone's in favor of this move. The National
- 22:02Speaker 1: Cattleman's Beef Association, they came out against the deal, arguing
- 22:06Speaker 1: it does nothing to accomplish Trump's own stated goal of
- 22:09Speaker 1: growing the American herd. Their logic, flood the market with
- 22:12Speaker 1: cheap foreign beef and you push prices down on the
- 22:15Speaker 1: same ranchers you're asking to expand, which gives them less
- 22:18Speaker 1: reason to expand, not more. Cattleman's groups have fought foreign
- 22:22Speaker 1: beef imports for years, and when Trump floated this very
- 22:24Speaker 1: idea back in May, he pulled it after ranchers and
- 22:27Speaker 1: members of Congress pushed hard. Now, some Republicans run easy
- 22:31Speaker 1: about it tonight, and there's an open question hanging over
- 22:34Speaker 1: the whole thing, with no country's name and no enforcement
- 22:37Speaker 1: spelled out, will shoppers actually see that twenty five percent
- 22:40Speaker 1: benefit or does get absorbed somewhere between the border and
- 22:43Speaker 1: the meat case. So that's the trade off relief for
- 22:46Speaker 1: the family buying dinner tonight. And also could it be
- 22:49Speaker 1: a blow to the American rancher trying to stay in
- 22:51Speaker 1: business a promised discount that for the moment comes without
- 22:55Speaker 1: much fine print. Now, my next guest lives on the
- 22:58Speaker 1: ranching side of the equation, running for state wide office
- 23:01Speaker 1: and the biggest cattle state in the country. I mean,
- 23:03Speaker 1: now both French rancher GOP nominee for Texas Railroad Commissioner bo.
- 23:08Speaker 1: Welcome to David Pollock Prime Time. I don't know how
- 23:10Speaker 1: to feel about this. I mean, I love hamburgers and
- 23:13Speaker 1: the price of beef is a little disturbing. Ground beef
- 23:17Speaker 1: not so much as steak. Steaks are very expensive. Ground beef,
- 23:19Speaker 1: you can still find a deal, but we don't want
- 23:21Speaker 1: to put our farmers out of business and compete with
- 23:22Speaker 1: them with cheap foreign meat.
- 23:23Speaker 2: So I don't know what to think about this. I'm
- 23:26Speaker 2: looking for your take on this one.
- 23:28Speaker 7: Yeah, listen, I think President Trump is rightly focused on
- 23:31Speaker 7: how he can make affordability better for the November election.
- 23:35Speaker 7: That's front and center on everybody's mind. So I think
- 23:38Speaker 7: as hard as in the right place, I tend to
- 23:41Speaker 7: if I had been in the room when this discussion
- 23:43Speaker 7: came up, I think I would have been on the
- 23:44Speaker 7: side of advising him not to do this, just because
- 23:48Speaker 7: I think, you know, government interference in our markets is
- 23:52Speaker 7: really never a good thing, and you know it is temporary.
- 23:56Speaker 7: So maybe this will give us an opportunity to get
- 23:58Speaker 7: through this election and and reset after that. But you're right,
- 24:01Speaker 7: as a rancher, you know, we we have our costs
- 24:05Speaker 7: on everything have gone way up, especially here in big
- 24:08Speaker 7: parts of Texas. We've had, you know, years and years
- 24:11Speaker 7: of drought, meaning we can't carry as many cattle on
- 24:15Speaker 7: the on the ranch as we used to be able to,
- 24:17Speaker 7: and so that really has more to do with why
- 24:20Speaker 7: you know, our herd is lower numbers than it used
- 24:23Speaker 7: to be, and I think that applies nationally. But you know, listen,
- 24:27Speaker 7: when when the government interferes and and uh, you know,
- 24:31Speaker 7: makes decisions like this, oftentimes that it has consequences that
- 24:36Speaker 7: are unforeseen. And you know, my hope is is that
- 24:39Speaker 7: we can actually rely on the markets to work efficiently,
- 24:42Speaker 7: and and they were in the process of doing that.
- 24:44Speaker 7: Of course, you know, ranchers are trying to rebuild their herds.
- 24:48Speaker 7: They're incentivized to do so with you know, with with
- 24:51Speaker 7: free market capitalism, and uh, yeah, that that's the that's
- 24:54Speaker 7: the position I would prefer to see. But again, this
- 24:57Speaker 7: is temporary, so hopefully it's it's not going to make
- 24:59Speaker 7: a huge difference on the ranchers long term.
- 25:03Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, look, I'm all for finding an approach
- 25:06Speaker 1: to make beef more affordable for Americans. Americans love their beef,
- 25:10Speaker 1: but it has been expensive. I mean at the price
- 25:13Speaker 1: even at places like at big box stores, stakes are
- 25:15Speaker 1: still very high. And I know ranchers are doing everything
- 25:17Speaker 1: they can to get as much beef to the market
- 25:19Speaker 1: as possible, but like you mentioned, it's not easy to
- 25:22Speaker 1: really just increase the numbers of herds.
- 25:25Speaker 2: Now.
- 25:25Speaker 1: Are there other possible solutions to get the prices of
- 25:29Speaker 1: beef down? Is there regulations that can be cut, is
- 25:32Speaker 1: their incentives that they can provide, or is just are
- 25:35Speaker 1: we sort of in a tough spot right now until
- 25:37Speaker 1: the herds regrow.
- 25:39Speaker 7: I mean, look, the prices of everything are much higher
- 25:42Speaker 7: in the last few years because our government has printed
- 25:46Speaker 7: so much money, injected more money into the supply, spent
- 25:50Speaker 7: more money than they ever have, and all these things
- 25:53Speaker 7: have just created massive inflation. And then you couple that
- 25:55Speaker 7: with just the years of costs on agriculture and is
- 26:00Speaker 7: going up with you know, equipment and insurance and labor,
- 26:03Speaker 7: all of those costs have gone way up. And so
- 26:06Speaker 7: you know, a ranch is a business, so they have
- 26:09Speaker 7: to set pricing that allows them to make a profit,
- 26:14Speaker 7: and you know, the market should determine that, but it's
- 26:19Speaker 7: really been increasingly difficult. You know, I think something like
- 26:21Speaker 7: ninety percent of ranches are not profitable, and it's just
- 26:26Speaker 7: mainly because the cost of everything has gone up and
- 26:28Speaker 7: the cost to reduce the beef has just gone way up,
- 26:32Speaker 7: and so you know, I think that reducing the requirements
- 26:36Speaker 7: on ranchers, reducing regulations, having free market forces, you know,
- 26:43Speaker 7: really determine what pricing is. I think that's really the
- 26:46Speaker 7: best way to go.
- 26:48Speaker 1: Yeah, And I'm sure, I mean, we haven't seen, you know,
- 26:50Speaker 1: the whole deal, and we don't know what the order
- 26:52Speaker 1: actually looks like. I'm sure this president is not going
- 26:55Speaker 1: to not consider the needs of the American ranchers. And
- 27:01Speaker 1: maybe when this deal comes out, there's some incentives for
- 27:03Speaker 1: American ranchers to increasesize their herds, and maybe there are
- 27:06Speaker 1: some tax incentives and deregulation that that's going to be
- 27:09Speaker 1: part of this deal as well. Because look, we need
- 27:11Speaker 1: to get America farming again and ranching again, and we
- 27:15Speaker 1: need these farmlands not to dry up and get bought
- 27:17Speaker 1: up by China so they can build multi family homes
- 27:19Speaker 1: on it and starve us of our own ability to
- 27:21Speaker 1: produce food. I mean, we need to bring back American
- 27:23Speaker 1: ranching and American food production, and I know that there's
- 27:26Speaker 1: a way to do it, and I think this present
- 27:28Speaker 1: is probably more focused on that to other people where
- 27:31Speaker 1: how long do you think the beef prices will remain high?
- 27:35Speaker 2: Is there something on the horizon.
- 27:37Speaker 1: I mean, are the herd numbers coming back, or we
- 27:39Speaker 1: maybe like a year or two out from be able
- 27:41Speaker 1: to get ten dollars a pound you know New York
- 27:44Speaker 1: strip at the grocery store, or those days gone.
- 27:47Speaker 7: Now, I don't think you're ever going to see that again.
- 27:49Speaker 7: Like I said, inflation has while we have reduced the
- 27:53Speaker 7: rate of inflation, the prices don't ever actually go down.
- 27:56Speaker 7: It's just the rate of inflation has gone down. And
- 27:58Speaker 7: so you know, we are in a new norm. I think.
- 28:01Speaker 7: But again, if if we can just reduce the actual
- 28:04Speaker 7: costs on ranchers, that all the other costs, like I said, insurance, labor,
- 28:07Speaker 7: things like that, that that is how we can make
- 28:10Speaker 7: it where ranchers are incentivized to stay in business. Of course,
- 28:14Speaker 7: we need rain often and at the right time to
- 28:18Speaker 7: grow what we need to grow so that the cattle
- 28:20Speaker 7: can harvest the natural range that they consume. And so
- 28:25Speaker 7: you know, for those reasons, there's just not a lot
- 28:28Speaker 7: we can do. Now we can as a government. The
- 28:31Speaker 7: government can certainly interfere in ways that disrupt the markets.
- 28:35Speaker 7: And I think that's what the fear is here is
- 28:37Speaker 7: is this really going to be a disruption that is
- 28:39Speaker 7: ultimately harmful for the market. My hope is is that
- 28:42Speaker 7: long term it is not, but you know that remains
- 28:45Speaker 7: to be seen.
- 28:46Speaker 1: Now, both people want to come and learn more about
- 28:48Speaker 1: your campaign. Help you out in Texas because we're trying to.
- 28:51Speaker 2: Keep the a red state.
- 28:53Speaker 1: With tall Rico running around and trying to stir up
- 28:56Speaker 1: some comrades for his socialist revolution, where can they go
- 28:59Speaker 1: to help you out?
- 29:01Speaker 7: Yeah, well, remember I'm running for the Texas Railroad Commission,
- 29:03Speaker 7: which has nothing to do with agriculture or railroads. It's
- 29:06Speaker 7: the regulator for the oil and gas industry, which also
- 29:09Speaker 7: you know, affects everything every cost you pay your price
- 29:12Speaker 7: at the pump. But it's both French dot com and
- 29:14Speaker 7: at both French on X.
- 29:16Speaker 1: We wish you the best luck and could look to you.
- 29:18Speaker 1: We're big supporter Zevy and we appreciate you coming on
- 29:20Speaker 1: the show.
- 29:21Speaker 7: Thank you so much.
- 29:22Speaker 2: Thank you.
- 29:23Speaker 1: When we come back, Milania Trump takes her Foster Care
- 29:27Speaker 1: of mission to the fastest cars in the country and
- 29:30Speaker 1: one of the sharpest minds in marketing breaks down how
- 29:34Speaker 1: it's gonna work and later it's fired up. Friday, South
- 29:37Speaker 1: Carolina picks a new United States Senator in a few days,
- 29:40Speaker 1: and it's a brawl between two candidates.
- 29:43Speaker 2: Chad Kton is getting a little bit fired up about
- 29:46Speaker 2: one of them. That's coming up tonight.
- 29:55Speaker 4: For all of our viewers out there asking where to

- 30:33Speaker 1: Yesterday in the Rose Garden, Milania Trump did something you rarely.
- 30:37Speaker 2: See in Washington.
- 30:38Speaker 1: She took a charity for foster kids and turned it
- 30:41Speaker 1: into a race car.
- 30:42Speaker 2: And this Sunday, that.
- 30:44Speaker 1: Car and that cause will take a lap in front
- 30:47Speaker 1: of the entire country. Let's talk about the cause itself.
- 30:50Speaker 1: Milania first launched the Be Best program in twenty eighteen.
- 30:54Speaker 1: Her signature platform focused broadly on the well being of children,
- 30:58Speaker 1: their health, their safety on line, the damage.
- 31:00Speaker 2: To opioid epetic does to kids. That's the umbrella.
- 31:04Speaker 1: Everything she does as First Lady lives under Being Best.
- 31:08Speaker 1: In twenty twenty one, she built a program underneath that
- 31:10Speaker 1: umbrella aimed squarely at the group, the children stuck in
- 31:14Speaker 1: the foster care system. That program called Fostering the Future.
- 31:18Speaker 1: So when you hear both names this weekend, that's the relationship.
- 31:21Speaker 1: Be Best, that's the platform. Fostering the Future, well, that's
- 31:25Speaker 1: helping foster care students.
- 31:26Speaker 2: And this week Fostering the Future landed a two.
- 31:28Speaker 1: Million dollar boost, a million dollars from Fox Corp. A
- 31:32Speaker 1: million from andycar to fund college scholarships for young people
- 31:36Speaker 1: aging out of the foster care system. It creates new
- 31:39Speaker 1: scholarships at Indiana University and Purdue and brings her national
- 31:43Speaker 1: network to twenty six colleges and universities.
- 31:46Speaker 2: The whole point is the kids. Almost nobody fights for.
- 31:49Speaker 1: The ones who turn eighteen and in the system have
- 31:52Speaker 1: nowhere to go overnight, no family, no safety net, nowhere
- 31:56Speaker 1: to go. This gives them a real shot at a degree.
- 32:00Speaker 1: And sitting right there in the rose guard next to
- 32:02Speaker 1: the First Lady was an actual Indie car wrapped in red, white.
- 32:06Speaker 2: And blue carrying the be Best logo beautiful and powerful.
- 32:10Speaker 1: That car is where the marketing turns genuinely clever, because
- 32:14Speaker 1: this weekend, Washington, DC hosts the Freedom to fifty Grand Prix,
- 32:19Speaker 1: the first auto race in history run on the National
- 32:22Speaker 1: Mall stage to celebrate America's two hundred and fiftieth birthday,
- 32:25Speaker 1: and every single car in that race carries that same.
- 32:29Speaker 2: Specially designed be Best logo.
- 32:32Speaker 1: So no matter who takes a check or flag on Sunday,
- 32:35Speaker 1: whoever wins, crosses that finish line carrying Milania's.
- 32:38Speaker 2: Message about foster children.
- 32:40Speaker 1: The logo is painted right onto the track on the
- 32:43Speaker 1: over past at Seventh Street, and the whole race airs
- 32:46Speaker 1: nationally on Fox and FS one all weekend long. A
- 32:50Speaker 1: cause that normally gets zero airtime is about to be
- 32:53Speaker 1: seen by millions of people watching race cars screen past
- 32:56Speaker 1: the Washington Monument. Joining me now, Mark Beckman, CEO of
- 33:00Speaker 1: DMA United and senior advisor to First Lady Milania Trump.
- 33:05Speaker 2: What an exciting.
- 33:06Speaker 1: Weekend coming up, and what an interesting way to promote
- 33:09Speaker 1: fostering the future, which is an amazing program part of
- 33:12Speaker 1: this amazing be Best operation where the First Lady is
- 33:16Speaker 1: really trying to give back to the youth of American
- 33:18Speaker 1: doing an amazing.
- 33:19Speaker 2: Job at it. Talk about how big this is to have.
- 33:23Speaker 1: Not only the event in the Rose Guard but fostering
- 33:25Speaker 1: the future all over this amazing IndyCar race that's happening
- 33:29Speaker 1: for the first time in Washington, DC.
- 33:33Speaker 8: The First Lady has truly put together a one of
- 33:36Speaker 8: a kind marketing vertical. There's no doubt that no first
- 33:41Speaker 8: Lady in history has ever done anything like this. Let's
- 33:44Speaker 8: start with the Rose Guarden event.
- 33:46Speaker 5: We had a.
- 33:47Speaker 8: Fostering the Future be Best branded Indiecar, that cherry red
- 33:52Speaker 8: iconic car coupled with a limited edition, one of a
- 33:56Speaker 8: kind Milania be Best helmet designed by the champ and
- 34:00Speaker 8: drivers from Indy Car. That car, by the way, was
- 34:04Speaker 8: brought into the Rose Garden via a crane. It's the
- 34:07Speaker 8: most incredible thing that they did. Now, what's important, of course,
- 34:12Speaker 8: the most important part of this is that IndyCar and
- 34:15Speaker 8: Fox are contributing two million dollars to fund scholarships for
- 34:20Speaker 8: America's foster care children at Indiana University and Purdue University,
- 34:25Speaker 8: all tied together at the vision and expertise of First
- 34:28Speaker 8: Lady Milania Trump.
- 34:30Speaker 2: But that's not it.
- 34:31Speaker 8: As you mentioned, this program is extending over the entire weekend.
- 34:35Speaker 8: So what they've done is Indy Car has agreed to
- 34:38Speaker 8: have a be Best Fostering the Future sticker on every
- 34:41Speaker 8: single car in the race this weekend, as well as
- 34:45Speaker 8: on overhead passes bridgeways that the cars will zoom under
- 34:50Speaker 8: as they're racing around our nation's capital for the Grand Prix.
- 34:53Speaker 8: So this has never been done before. It's the first
- 34:56Speaker 8: time a First Lady is doing anything of this nature.
- 34:59Speaker 8: Once again, we have to give our first Lady credit.
- 35:01Speaker 8: She's definitely an innovator when it comes to marketing and
- 35:05Speaker 8: we're raising money, we're helping people in the process, two
- 35:09Speaker 8: million dollars for scholarships at Indiana and Purdue University.
- 35:14Speaker 2: And that is such an important thing.
- 35:16Speaker 1: And we've spoken about this is really providing this place
- 35:20Speaker 1: for foster youths to go when they age out of
- 35:23Speaker 1: the system, and this first Lady, rather than let them
- 35:26Speaker 1: go and just bend for themselves, she's providing a bridge
- 35:30Speaker 1: to really having a much better life. And she's doing
- 35:33Speaker 1: it in the classiest way possible. But I mean the
- 35:36Speaker 1: beauty of it, the way you put it together, it's
- 35:39Speaker 1: so American and it's so cool talk about how important
- 35:43Speaker 1: it is to provide this bridge for foster students that
- 35:46Speaker 1: get this education so they can be successful, so they
- 35:48Speaker 1: can be best.
- 35:51Speaker 8: It's really important. Unfortunately, only three percent of individuals who
- 35:56Speaker 8: reach the age of majority in America who are from
- 36:00Speaker 8: foster care, so just three percent of these individuals go
- 36:03Speaker 8: on and graduate college or university.
- 36:05Speaker 5: Three percent.
- 36:06Speaker 8: So as a result, many of them end up homeless,
- 36:10Speaker 8: mixed up in drugs, in crime and beyond. So what
- 36:13Speaker 8: the First Lady is doing is she's trying to take
- 36:15Speaker 8: that ninety seven percent gap and get everybody educated, give
- 36:19Speaker 8: them a foundation of knowledge so that they could secure
- 36:23Speaker 8: an entry level job and then from there go on
- 36:27Speaker 8: and have financial independence. This will take them off of
- 36:30Speaker 8: the streets and perhaps create the next Steve Jobs, the
- 36:33Speaker 8: next Elon Musk, the next President, the next First Lady
- 36:37Speaker 8: of the United States of America.
- 36:39Speaker 5: We'll give back to.
- 36:40Speaker 8: America's communities, will remove children off of the financial aid
- 36:45Speaker 8: of the government and create autonomy within our nation. And
- 36:49Speaker 8: that's what Fostering in the Future is all about.
- 36:52Speaker 2: Yeah, it's an amazing program.
- 36:54Speaker 1: And the funny thing was that I love how she
- 36:55Speaker 1: came out at the Rose Card and she's like, oh.
- 36:58Speaker 2: You were wondering where I was.
- 37:00Speaker 1: She's planning this amazing event which I can't even imagine.
- 37:03Speaker 1: If you've seen you've seen your wonderful movie about Milania.
- 37:06Speaker 1: When you see how much detail and how much thought
- 37:09Speaker 1: she puts into everything she does, about the way it looks,
- 37:12Speaker 1: the way it appears, making sure it's perfect, you can
- 37:14Speaker 1: imagine how busy she has been trying to make sure
- 37:18Speaker 1: this event is exactly what she envisions that it's going
- 37:21Speaker 1: to be, and it's already turning out spectacularly.
- 37:23Speaker 2: I can imagine. It's a lot of work, right, I'll.
- 37:27Speaker 8: Tell I mean, thanks for asking. It's two months of
- 37:29Speaker 8: work behind the scenes. She came up with the idea,
- 37:33Speaker 8: we contacted mister Penske over at IndyCar and we architected
- 37:37Speaker 8: the entire thing, every single detail that you see the
- 37:41Speaker 8: first lady's involved in. Now keep in mind, this isn't
- 37:43Speaker 8: the only thing she's doing. We just also had our
- 37:46Speaker 8: sixth reunification of Ukrainian and Russian children with their families
- 37:51Speaker 8: a few days earlier on Monday. While she's planning forward
- 37:54Speaker 8: for the nation, the upcoming China State visit United Nations
- 38:00Speaker 8: General Assembly, two events, and a lot more that's going
- 38:03Speaker 8: to be happening throughout the fall and into the winter.
- 38:06Speaker 8: So people look for optics how many appearances, which I
- 38:09Speaker 8: think is really shallow. If the people in your audience,
- 38:13Speaker 8: the people in oan really want to think about it,
- 38:16Speaker 8: what they should think about is results, not optics. This
- 38:19Speaker 8: First Lady is results oriented. We're seeing it with two
- 38:22Speaker 8: pieces of legislation, an executive order, a network of schools
- 38:28Speaker 8: for fostering the future that includes twenty six great universities.
- 38:32Speaker 8: Now the fostering of the future accounts the fostering in
- 38:36Speaker 8: the future together global coalition of Nations. I mean, I
- 38:39Speaker 8: could see here, David and go on and on and on.
- 38:41Speaker 8: What this woman is doing is impacting lives both domestically
- 38:45Speaker 8: and internationally for the better.
- 38:48Speaker 1: She's an amazing First Lady, and it's such a shame
- 38:50Speaker 1: that the press doesn't cover her fairly. If they did,
- 38:53Speaker 1: this country would realize how blessed we are to have her.
- 38:56Speaker 2: And the reunification alone.
- 38:57Speaker 1: We're going to talk next week about the reunification because
- 38:59Speaker 1: that's story in of itself that's worthy of a segment,
- 39:02Speaker 1: because it's worthy of a whole hour because of what
- 39:04Speaker 1: the impact she's making on so many families who have
- 39:07Speaker 1: been affected by Warren. And so I look forward to
- 39:09Speaker 1: talking to you next week about that. But man, congratulations
- 39:12Speaker 1: on a wonderful event. It's going to be an amazing weekend.
- 39:15Speaker 1: And congratulations to the first lady for pulling it off
- 39:17Speaker 1: in such a beautiful and spectacular manner.
- 39:21Speaker 5: Thank you so much.
- 39:22Speaker 8: And you know that the winner will have a be
- 39:24Speaker 8: best Foster in the Future sticker on it.
- 39:27Speaker 2: Amazing, amazing.
- 39:28Speaker 1: Well, you know, the real winners are the people who
- 39:30Speaker 1: are going to benefit from fostering the future.
- 39:32Speaker 2: But the winner of that race is going to have
- 39:34Speaker 2: a fantastic sticker to go along with it.
- 39:35Speaker 9: Mark Beckman, always a matter what it's branded, that's right,
- 39:39Speaker 9: Mark's It's always a pleasure having you on and look
- 39:43Speaker 9: forward to talking to you next week about the reunification.

- 41:49Speaker 1: Next Tuesday, Republicans in South Carolina head back to the
- 41:52Speaker 1: polls to finish a job that started with tragedy. They're
- 41:55Speaker 1: choosing who will fill the United States Senate seat left
- 41:59Speaker 1: empty by the sun death of Lindsay Graham and has
- 42:02Speaker 1: turned into one of the most closely watched runoffs in
- 42:04Speaker 1: the country. Lindsay Graham died unexpectedly on June eleventh. He
- 42:08Speaker 1: had already won his primary for re election, so as
- 42:11Speaker 1: passing left Republicans needing a whole new candidate for November,
- 42:14Speaker 1: the governor, Henry McMaster appointed Graham's sister, Darlene Graham, to
- 42:19Speaker 1: hold the seat in the meantime, making her the first
- 42:22Speaker 1: woman ever to represent South Carolina in the Senate. Then
- 42:25Speaker 1: came the special primary on August eleventh. Ten Republicans on
- 42:30Speaker 1: the ballot, Darlene Graham, while she finished first gongs and
- 42:33Speaker 1: Ralph Norman finished second, but neither one cleared the fifty
- 42:36Speaker 1: percent hurdle. So now it comes down to a one
- 42:39Speaker 1: on one runoff next Tuesday, August twenty fifth. And these
- 42:43Speaker 1: are two very different Republicans. Darlene Graham, Well, she's a
- 42:46Speaker 1: political newcomer. She spent her career in disability services, never
- 42:50Speaker 1: held elected office, and she's running on her late brother's
- 42:53Speaker 1: legacy and on what she's already done. In her first
- 42:56Speaker 1: weeks in the Senate. She helped pass a major Rusher
- 42:59Speaker 1: sanctions passage package, she voted to confirm Attorney General Todd Blanche,
- 43:03Speaker 1: and she picked up the president's endorsement. She's running as
- 43:07Speaker 1: an outsider. Guilty is charged, she says, for not being
- 43:12Speaker 1: a politician.
- 43:12Speaker 2: Now. Ralph Norman is the opposite.
- 43:14Speaker 1: He's a Freedom Caucus conservative, a businessman, he's served in
- 43:17Speaker 1: Congress for years, and he just ran a statewide race
- 43:20Speaker 1: for governor earlier this cycle. His whole case is experience.
- 43:24Speaker 1: That for a six year term in the Senate is
- 43:28Speaker 1: in a dangerous world, you'd want somebody who's been tested
- 43:31Speaker 1: with some experience. And he's questioned whether voters have had
- 43:35Speaker 1: enough time to vet a newcomer for the job. That big,
- 43:38Speaker 1: that question got very real at their debate on Tuesday night,
- 43:41Speaker 1: Graham was asked about Taiwan and a South China Sea
- 43:44Speaker 1: and look at her answer.
- 43:46Speaker 11: I'm just going to be honest to you. I'm not
- 43:48Speaker 11: on national security that I'm not that informed on national security.
- 43:52Speaker 11: So but I do support the military. My brother was
- 43:58Speaker 11: in the Air Force for thirty three years, So I
- 44:01Speaker 11: will do everything I can to support the military.
- 44:05Speaker 2: National security's not a thing, but she loves the military.
- 44:08Speaker 2: That's good. Norman jumped on it, of course, pointing to
- 44:13Speaker 2: his own record. That's the fault line of this whole.
- 44:15Speaker 1: Race, the outsider who says she'll learn against the veteran
- 44:19Speaker 1: who says the job doesn't come with time for a
- 44:21Speaker 1: learning curve. The endorsman show you just how split the
- 44:25Speaker 1: party is. Lined Up behind Graham, you have President Trump,
- 44:27Speaker 1: Tim Scott, Senator Majority Leader John Thune.
- 44:30Speaker 2: Well that's its qualifier right there.
- 44:32Speaker 1: Senator Tom Cotton lined up behind Norman, former Governor Nikki Haley,
- 44:36Speaker 1: and former Senator Jim Demitt, two of the biggest names
- 44:39Speaker 1: in South Carolina conservative politics. Now there's real money into
- 44:42Speaker 1: it as well, a super pac that wants back Lindsey
- 44:44Speaker 1: Graham is now spending heavily to get a sister across
- 44:47Speaker 1: the line. Whoever wins Tuesday is the heavy favorite to
- 44:50Speaker 1: hold the seat in November. And there's nobody I'd rather
- 44:53Speaker 1: break this one down with on a Friday than my
- 44:56Speaker 1: friend Chad Cayton, who is fired up about this. Independent
- 45:00Speaker 1: journalist and founder of Operation Free Nation, Chad Cayton, Welcome
- 45:03Speaker 1: back to Fired Up Friday. I know how you feel
- 45:07Speaker 1: about Noreen Graham or whatever her name is. I know
- 45:13Speaker 1: how you feel about it.
- 45:14Speaker 2: You say, I don't even care what her name is.
- 45:19Speaker 1: You said it was, uh, what did you call senator
- 45:22Speaker 1: birthright senatorship?
- 45:24Speaker 12: No birthship is South Carolina.
- 45:27Speaker 2: So talk about this.
- 45:29Speaker 1: I mean, look, look, we and Lindsay's death was tragic honoring.
- 45:33Speaker 1: It is common to honor a late senator with putting
- 45:36Speaker 1: a family member in their place, but it is not
- 45:40Speaker 1: common to basically support that family member who's never been
- 45:44Speaker 1: in politics to take the seat in the Senate.
- 45:46Speaker 2: I mean, we're talking about the Senate. This isn't even
- 45:48Speaker 2: like some like small house seats somewhere.
- 45:50Speaker 1: This is the United States Senate and she's actually doing
- 45:53Speaker 1: well in the bowls.
- 45:54Speaker 2: So what's going on here? Chad?
- 45:57Speaker 12: The power of the Trump endorsement. Ain't no, But South
- 46:01Speaker 12: Carolina has had a tendency to not allow somebody else
- 46:05Speaker 12: to come in and tell them how to vote. You
- 46:07Speaker 12: remember in the primary, you had Nancy Mace, had somebody
- 46:11Speaker 12: else that was endorsed by Donald Trump that didn't go
- 46:14Speaker 12: so well. Nancy Mayce won. There's another person that had
- 46:18Speaker 12: beef with Trump, but they got past it now is
- 46:20Speaker 12: Lindsey Graham, and he didn't get moved anywhere, shape or form,
- 46:25Speaker 12: because South Carolina is real big on not letting somebody
- 46:29Speaker 12: tell them how.
- 46:30Speaker 5: To do things.
- 46:31Speaker 12: And after the debate, we have gone past the sweet
- 46:34Speaker 12: little sister that's warning her brother's death to somebody that
- 46:38Speaker 12: wants to be in the Senate for six years in
- 46:41Speaker 12: a very dangerous world. And right now the United States,
- 46:46Speaker 12: South Carolina and the rest of the world deserves better.
- 46:51Speaker 12: We need a leader in the Senate, not an intern.
- 46:55Speaker 12: And right now, after you've seen multiple videos and her debate,
- 47:01Speaker 12: to say to the American people in South Carolina, it's
- 47:06Speaker 12: just not my thing. National Security the.
- 47:09Speaker 2: Sentence job is to ratify treaties.
- 47:12Speaker 13: Their job is to get on the budget of our
- 47:15Speaker 13: military to be able to sit there and put up
- 47:19Speaker 13: a ribbon on your car and say that I stand
- 47:21Speaker 13: with the military in any way, shape or form, is
- 47:24Speaker 13: some way a qualifier.
- 47:27Speaker 2: For you to be one of one hundred senators.
- 47:30Speaker 12: Is an abject failure in this system. We deserve better,
- 47:35Speaker 12: the American people deserve better, and this nepotism thing has
- 47:40Speaker 12: got to go. And if you look at who's endorsing her,
- 47:43Speaker 12: it's the establishment machine, the Dixie Democrats of South Carolina
- 47:48Speaker 12: that are going after not to mention one of Kamala's
- 47:51Speaker 12: super packs and one of Bernie Sanders super packs. And
- 47:54Speaker 12: if we really want to go to the floor, you've
- 47:57Speaker 12: got legislators in the South Carolina ASSEM believe right now
- 48:01Speaker 12: that are Democrats saying, hey, Democrats, if you didn't vote
- 48:04Speaker 12: in the other primary, feel free to jump into this
- 48:07Speaker 12: one because we have the Dixie Democrats running Columbia and
- 48:11Speaker 12: those people refuse to close our elections.
- 48:15Speaker 2: Yeah, you're damn right on, fired up, David.
- 48:18Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean you should, and I understand you're being
- 48:20Speaker 1: fired up about this one. And look, I in primaries,
- 48:22Speaker 1: I usually try to stay pretty neutral because we don't
- 48:25Speaker 1: know who's gonna win, and I lively leave it to
- 48:27Speaker 1: the people of those states. To decide who gets to
- 48:29Speaker 1: represent them. I can give my opinion if I have one,
- 48:32Speaker 1: if it really actually impacts me.
- 48:34Speaker 2: But on this one, I'm having a hard time getting behind.
- 48:37Speaker 2: Uh what what is it? Darlee? What is her name?
- 48:41Speaker 2: Darlene Darlee? That's what Darlee Graham.
- 48:45Speaker 1: That's right, because she changed her last name, and I
- 48:47Speaker 1: keep forgetting what her last name was before she changed
- 48:49Speaker 1: into Graham, which and that and that is the weirdest
- 48:52Speaker 1: part about all of this, right, the fact that you know,
- 48:55Speaker 1: here comes a woman, she changes her last name.
- 48:57Speaker 2: It's like the second she sat.
- 48:58Speaker 1: In the seat, it was almost like you decided that
- 49:00Speaker 1: she was going to run for by changing her name
- 49:02Speaker 1: to Graham.
- 49:03Speaker 2: And then you know this whole debate. I'm not a
- 49:07Speaker 2: national security is not my thing?
- 49:08Speaker 5: Now?
- 49:09Speaker 1: She when she But I want to tell you something
- 49:11Speaker 1: because this is what struck me by that, and this
- 49:13Speaker 1: is where I became no longer neutral.
- 49:15Speaker 5: Now.
- 49:15Speaker 2: I love Rep. Norman.
- 49:17Speaker 1: I think he does a great job. He comes on
- 49:18Speaker 1: this show. He's a super nice gentleman. He understands the issues.
- 49:22Speaker 1: He's a conservative or real conservative. And you know, my
- 49:25Speaker 1: issue is when somebody says national security isn't my thing,
- 49:28Speaker 1: but I support our troops. What I hear is something
- 49:31Speaker 1: that was notus notoriously Lindsey Graham, and that's I'm going
- 49:35Speaker 1: to vote for endless money to go to our troops.
- 49:38Speaker 1: I'm going to fund war as long as somebody asks
- 49:41Speaker 1: me for that check. But I don't understand what those
- 49:43Speaker 1: people are actually suiting up to go and do, because
- 49:46Speaker 1: I don't understand national security.
- 49:47Speaker 2: It's not my thing. So what we don't need.
- 49:50Speaker 1: We need to fund the troops as much as we
- 49:51Speaker 1: can fund them. But what we don't need is a
- 49:52Speaker 1: blank check to go to war and a senator that
- 49:54Speaker 1: doesn't understand the battles we're sending our young men and
- 49:58Speaker 1: women into. That's what concern This isn't a house seat.
- 50:01Speaker 1: This isn't where the outsiders go to serve. That's for
- 50:04Speaker 1: the House. You know, send us your farmers, send us,
- 50:07Speaker 1: your disability services workers, send us whoever. That's a representative government.
- 50:12Speaker 1: You go through the community, you serve two years, and
- 50:13Speaker 1: you go home. Let's put term limits on that. Let's
- 50:16Speaker 1: make that a representative body.
- 50:17Speaker 2: This is the Senate. The Senate is its own thing
- 50:20Speaker 2: for a reason. These are your elder statesmen.
- 50:22Speaker 1: These are the people that are supposed to rise above
- 50:25Speaker 1: all of the politics and really do the hard work
- 50:27Speaker 1: necessary to govern our country. And this is the best
- 50:30Speaker 1: you can do in South Carolina. I'm not buying it.
- 50:33Speaker 12: I'm not buying it either, and neither are the people
- 50:35Speaker 12: of South Carolina. I'm telling you right now, you can't
- 50:38Speaker 12: go on any social media nowhere, and I'm telling you
- 50:40Speaker 12: social media a real life. But tonight is going to
- 50:43Speaker 12: be a very interesting rally with President Trump in Myrtle Beach.
- 50:46Speaker 12: Myrtle Beach is a very, very very red pro Trump county.
- 50:51Speaker 12: But there's also Russell Fry who jumped into this, who
- 50:54Speaker 12: was running for the House seat and the Senate at
- 50:56Speaker 12: the same time and lost in the Senate race.
- 50:59Speaker 2: And I'm wondering if he's going to be.
- 51:00Speaker 12: Brought out because the people of Oree County, South Carolina,
- 51:03Speaker 12: are a little.
- 51:04Speaker 2: Mythed that he put the House seat in what could.
- 51:08Speaker 12: Be a Democrat could take it over, because he let
- 51:11Speaker 12: it sit while he ran for Senate and lost.
- 51:14Speaker 2: There's a whole lot of different.
- 51:16Speaker 12: Dramas playing out here tonight, not to mention a severe
- 51:19Speaker 12: thunderstorm that is hitting Martle Beach right now, and so
- 51:22Speaker 12: when this happens and tonight's rally, I'm Barry. I'm calling
- 51:27Speaker 12: Ralph Norman by five points. I just don't see it.
- 51:30Speaker 12: And I know that the South Carolina people, although we
- 51:33Speaker 12: respect Donald Trump and we love President Trump, this is
- 51:37Speaker 12: South Carolina. We'll make our own decisions, thank you very much, sir.
- 51:40Speaker 1: Yeah, and look and look, I do support the President,
- 51:43Speaker 1: and I appreciate his endorsements. The President, And just to
- 51:45Speaker 1: be clear, the President has his own reasons for endorsing
- 51:48Speaker 1: It doesn't mean that Norman's not going to make a
- 51:50Speaker 1: great senator. The President has his own reasons for endorsing
- 51:52Speaker 1: who he endorses, and he has to, at the end
- 51:54Speaker 1: of the day, factor in a lot of different things.
- 51:56Speaker 1: So it's not disrespectful to not support the person in
- 51:59Speaker 1: this race that the President might not be supporting. I
- 52:01Speaker 1: think Norman's a patriot, and Norman's been endorsed by the
- 52:04Speaker 1: way for the House, so it's not like he doesn't carry.
- 52:07Speaker 2: Trump's seal of approval.
- 52:08Speaker 1: So I think, look, South Carolina has a lot of
- 52:11Speaker 1: good options, you know, I think it's obvious where you
- 52:13Speaker 1: fall on this one. And I guess we'll see what
- 52:15Speaker 1: happens on Tuesday. Chad stay fired up.
- 52:18Speaker 2: Yeah, go ahead, it's early important.
- 52:21Speaker 12: I'm actually helping the president out because Ralph Norman is
- 52:25Speaker 12: the number one conservative voting elected official in the state.
- 52:30Speaker 12: He is voted at ninety three percent with Donald Trump
- 52:33Speaker 12: in all of his administration. Tim Scott can't even say
- 52:36Speaker 12: that you're welcome, mister President, and the people of South
- 52:39Speaker 12: carolinaa said you a fighter.
- 52:42Speaker 2: Well, we'll see what happens on Tuesday. Jack Gayton Fired
- 52:45Speaker 2: Up Fridays. Always love seeing you here. Brother.
- 52:47Speaker 1: I'll talk to you next week. Ruh, Ralph, that's our
