[00:03:06] HERE IS THE WINNER, ABDUL EL
[00:03:08] SAYED, SPEAKING WITH REPORTERS
[00:03:13] YESTERDAY.
[00:03:19] [VIDEO CLIP] >>[VIDEO CLIP]
[00:03:22] >> I WANT US TO REALIZE THERE IS SO MUCH MORE THAT UNITES US NOW.
[00:03:28] THE GOP MAGA ALLIES WHAT -- YOU
[00:03:36] ARE ALREADY WATCHING IT ON TV.
[00:03:38] THEY WANT TO USE MY WHOLE NAME AGAINST ME.
[00:03:42] YOU CANNOT SAY THE NAME ABDUL
[00:03:45] EL-SAYED -- I WOULD BE HAPPY TO
[00:03:48] GIVE YOU LESSONS.
[00:03:51] BUT THEY UNDERSTAND THE ONLY WAY
[00:03:54] THEY THINK THEY CAN WIN IS
[00:03:59] DIGGING THROUGH THE MUD, BELIEVING WHAT DIVIDES US IS
[00:04:03] BIGGER THAN WHAT UNITES US. THEY WANT US TO THINK THAT THE
[00:04:06] REASON SOME OF US AND GOD IS
[00:04:10] BECAUSE OF THE PEOPLE GOT. BUT THE REASON SO MANY OF US
[00:04:13] AIN'T GOT IS BECAUSE THE
[00:04:17] POLITICS ARE TAKEN AWAY FROM US. THAT IS WHAT WE ARE TAKING ON
[00:04:21] NOW. GETTING MONEY OUT OF POLITICS.
[00:04:24] MEDICARE FOR ALL IS A BIG NEED. IF YOU SUPPORTED ME OR YOU DID
[00:04:28] NOT SUPPORT ME, IF YOU VOTED FOR
[00:04:32] VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS IN 2024 OR YOU VOTED FOR DONALD TRUMP, IF

[00:04:40] GROCERIES, YOU OUGHT TO AFFORD

[00:04:48] IF YOU BELIEVE LIKE ME THAT A
[00:04:51] GOVERNMENT OF THE PEOPLE, BY THE PEOPLE, AND FOR THE PEOPLE IS
[00:04:54] OUR BIRTHRIGHT IN THIS COUNTRY, IF YOU BELIEVE LIKE ME THAT WE
[00:04:58] HAVE A RESPONSIBILITY TO STAND
[00:04:59] UP AND WALK WITH OUR UNIONS SO EVERYBODY HAS BARGAINING RIGHTS
[00:05:03] IN OUR COUNTRY, IF YOU BELIEVE LIKE ME THAT HE WANTED TO HAVE
[00:05:07] THE GUARANTEE TO PUT HEALTH CARE
[00:05:08] IN THIS COUNTRY WITHOUT SOME
[00:05:12] CORPORATION TRYING TO TELL YOU WHAT YOU CANNOT HAVE AND SHOULD
[00:05:13] NOT FIGHT FOR, I HOPE THAT YOU
[00:05:17] JOIN THIS MOVEMENT NOW. HOST: THAT WAS YESTERDAY IN DETROIT.
[00:05:20] PRESIDENT TRUMP WAS IN NEVADA YESTERDAY TALKING ABOUT HIS
[00:05:24] ECONOMIC AGENDA, AND HE ALSO
[00:05:29] TALKED DURING THAT RALLY ABOUT
[00:05:32] SENATE CANDIDATE ABDUL EL-SAYED. [VIDEO CLIP]
[00:05:38] >> IN CONGRESS, THEY ARE WORKING EVERY DAY TO DEFEND THE AMERICAN
[00:05:41] DREAM FOR YOU AND YOUR CHILDREN. THE RADICAL LEFT, THE MANIACS,
[00:05:45] ARE TRYING TO DESTROY IT.
[00:05:48] IT IS A DISTANCE -- A DISASTER
[00:05:50] KNOWN AS A, NOT SOCIALISM, COMMUNISM.
[00:05:53] HE IS A COMMUNIST. AND THE POLLS WERE WRONG AGAIN
[00:05:56] LAST NIGHT WHEN THEY THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A LANDSLIDE VICTORY FOR
[00:05:59] A HATER OF JEWS.
[00:06:03] THIS GUY HATES JEWS.
[00:06:06] SOMEBODY SAID THAT IS A LITTLE STRONG.
[00:06:09] NO, HE HATES JEWS AND HATES ISRAEL.
[00:06:12] ABDUL EL-SAYED.
[00:06:15] CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS? THIS COULD ONLY HAPPEN TO ME.
[00:06:19] ABDUL EL-SAYED, LOVELY GENTLEMEN
[00:06:23] , THE MAN OF HATE. NOW HE SAYS I LOVE EVERYBODY.
[00:06:27] HE DOESN'T LOVE EVERYBODY. PUT HIM IN OFFICE, YOU ARE GOING
[00:06:30] TO FIND OUT WHAT HE LOVES. HE DOES NOT LOVE ISRAEL.
[00:06:33] HE DOES NOT LOVE JEWISH PEOPLE. HE HATES THEM.
[00:06:37] HE HATES THEM WITH A PASSION THAT BURNS IN HIS HEART, AND
[00:06:41] THERE IS NOT A FREAKING THING HE CAN DO ABOUT IT. THERE IS NOT A THING HE CAN DO
[00:06:45] ABOUT IT BECAUSE HE HATES THEM.
[00:06:47] IN MICHIGAN, IT WAS REALLY VERY CLOSE.
[00:06:52] THE POLLS AND THE POLLS BY THE
[00:06:54] PRESS OFTEN TIMES, THEY -- THE
[00:07:04] POST-CREDIT REALLY LONG. HE ALMOST LOST. BUT HE IS GOING TO LOSE TO OUR GREAT CANDIDATE.
[00:07:08] WE HAVE A GREAT CANDIDATE IN MICHIGAN. GREAT CANDIDATE.
[00:07:13] BUT THE SOCIALIST CANDIDATE RAN
[00:07:17] A BIG EMERGENCE AGAINST THE COMMUNIST CANDIDATE IN DETROIT.
[00:07:21] I WAS SAYING IT IS PROBABLY CORRUPT.
[00:07:23] I DON'T KNOW WHO THE HELL THEY
[00:07:28] WANTED. I COULDN'T CARE LESS.
[00:07:30] ACTUALLY, WE DO BETTER AGAINST THE COMMUNISTS, ACCORDING TO THE POLLS.
[00:07:33] THE POLLS SAY YOU DO BETTER AGAINST THE COMMUNISTS.
[00:07:37] I THINK THEY WILL PUT OUT A STATEMENT.
[00:07:40] CONGRATULATIONS TO THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.
[00:07:43] HOST: THAT WAS YESTERDAY IN NEVADA.
[00:07:46] WE ARE TAKING YOUR CALLS. OUR QUESTION FOR YOU, WHAT IS
[00:07:49] YOUR TOP NEWS STORY OF THE DAY? WHAT IS MOST IMPORTANT TO YOU RIGHT NOW?
[00:07:53] THIS IS JAMES IN TENNESSEE, INDEPENDENT LINE.
[00:07:58] YOU ARE UP FIRST.
[00:08:01] JAMES, YOU'RE ON THE AIR. YOU HAVE GOT TO MUTE YOUR PHONE.
[00:08:05] JAMES? OK.
[00:08:09] JOE IN GEORGIA, REPUBLICAN.
[00:08:13] CALLER: MIMI, LOVE C-SPAN, BEEN
[00:08:16] CALLING YOUR GREAT NETWORK FOR 30 YEARS.
[00:08:19] THE BIGGEST NEWS STORY IS THE GREAT STOCK MARKET, BREAKING
[00:08:23] ALL-TIME HIGHS EVERY SINGLE DAY. I THINK TRUMP IS BY FAR THE BEST
[00:08:27] LEADER IN HISTORY. I AM A STOCKHOLDER, BEEN
[00:08:31] INVESTED FOR 50 YEARS. WE ARE IN INVESTOR HAVE BEEN
[00:08:35] WITH DONALD TRUMP AS PRESIDENT. AND I AM SO HAPPY EVERYBODY I'M
[00:08:39] TALKING TO IS HAPPY. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK, A GREAT
[00:08:43] C-SPAN. HOST: THANK YOU. I HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT THE STOCK MARKET.
[00:08:47] WHAT DO YOU SAY TO PEOPLE WHO CANNOT AFFORD TO BE IN THE STOCK MARKET?
[00:08:51] YOU HAVE HEARD ABOUT THE CASE SHAPED ECONOMY, SO INVESTORS
[00:08:54] LIKE YOURSELF ARE DOING VERY WELL. BUT PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT IN THE
[00:08:57] STOCK MARKET, WHO CANNOT AFFORD IT COME ARE DOING WORSE.
[00:09:01] WHAT DO YOU SAY?
[00:09:03] CALLER: MAY BE WHAT THEY NEED TO
[00:09:05] DO IS TRY TO FIND MAY BE -- HATE
[00:09:08] TO HAVE TO BORROW MONEY, BUT I THINK THE STOCK MARKET IS SO
[00:09:11] GREAT, YOU NEED TO GET EVERY AMERICAN POSSIBLE IN IT.
[00:09:15] MAYBE THEY HAVE GOT SOMEBODY THAT CAN LEND THEM A LITTLE
[00:09:18] MONEY, BECAUSE THE MARKET.
[00:09:22] TODAY, IT IS 50 THOUSAND DOLLARS.
[00:09:26] MY PREDICTION IS IT WILL GO TO $100,000 IN THE NEXT FIVE YEARS,
[00:09:31] THEN $200,000 IN 10.
[00:09:33] WE ARE IN INVESTOR HEAVEN, MIMI.
[00:09:37] YOU DO A SUPER JOB AT C-SPAN.
[00:09:40] HOST: BARBARA IN GEORGIA, DEMOCRAT.
[00:09:42] CALLER: GOOD MORNING.
[00:09:45] HE IS ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT SOCIALISTS, DEMOCRATS OR SOCIALISTS.
[00:09:50] BUT DEMOCRATS OR SOCIALISTS, SO
[00:09:53] WAS JESUS, BECAUSE JESUS
[00:09:55] BELIEVED IN GIVING TO POOR PEOPLE.
[00:09:58] AND HE ALSO BELIEVED IN DOING WHAT WAS RIGHT.
[00:10:02] DONALD TRUMP IS ALWAYS TALKING
[00:10:06] ABOUT COMMUNISTS. THE DEMOCRATS ARE COMMUNISTS.
[00:10:09] HE GOT ON THERE AND HE RUN FOR
[00:10:14] PRESIDENT, THIS IS WHAT HE DID. HE SAID I'M GOING TO BE A
[00:10:17] COMMUNIST FROM DAY ONE, A
[00:10:21] DICTATOR FROM DAY ONE.
[00:10:25] HOST: ALL RIGHT. THIS IS SCOTT IN NEW YORK,
[00:10:28] INDEPENDENT.
[00:10:32] CALLER: GOOD MORNING. JULY 3 WAS MY LAST CALL, I GET
[00:10:36] SICK OF HEARING PEOPLE CALLING
[00:10:39] IN ALL THE TIME.
[00:10:42] WE HAVE PEOPLE CALLING IN ALL THE TIME, THEY ARE LYING TO US
[00:10:45] BECAUSE THEY ARE ON MORE THAN EVERY 30 DAYS. THAT IS NOT WHY I AM CALLING.
[00:10:50] DONALD TRUMP HATES THE DEMOCRATS.
[00:10:52] HE HATES MANY PEOPLE AND AMERICA.
[00:10:55] SO DONALD TRUMP, I CAN SAY, HATES AMERICA.
[00:10:59] DONALD TRUMP LOVES PUTIN, AND PUTIN IS THE MAIN COMMUNISTS WHO
[00:11:03] HAVE BEEN AFRAID OF SINCE 1980'S.
[00:11:08] I WAS WORRIED ABOUT THE DAY THAT RUSSIANS EVER NUCLEAR BOMB DOES.
[00:11:12] GUESS WHAT, THEY HAVE NUKES.
[00:11:15] ONE THING I AM REALLY UPSET ABOUT FOR THE PAST MONTH IS THIS
[00:11:19] POOL, THAT WAS A $1 BILLION
[00:11:24] CONTRACT BID THE COST OVER $16 BILLION.
[00:11:27] WHY IS NOBODY UPSET THAT A ONE
[00:11:30] MILLION-DOLLAR CONTRACT COST $16 MILLION?
[00:11:33] IT WAS DONALD TRUMP'S FRIEND, AND HE CANNOT EVEN DO THAT RIGHT.
[00:11:36] COME ON, PEOPLE, WAKE UP.
[00:11:39] IT IS ABOUT THE HUMAN RACE OF AMERICA.
[00:11:41] GOD BLESS US HUMANS OUT THERE, OK?
[00:11:43] TALK TO YOU NEXT MONTH. HOST: OK.
[00:11:47] ON THAT REFLECTING POOL IN FRONT
[00:11:50] OF THE LINCOLN MEMORIAL, WASHINGTON POST HAS THIS,
[00:11:55] TRUMP'S CLAIMS OF VANDALISM AT THE RENOVATED REFLECTING POOL
[00:11:59] CRUMBLED, AND TRUMP LASHES OUT
[00:12:02] AT U.S. ATTORNEY JEANINE PIRRO AS SHE DROPS THE VANDALISM CASES
[00:12:06] AND BLAMED DAMAGE ON RUSHED WORK
[00:12:09] BY A CONTRACTOR.
[00:12:11] IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO READ THE
[00:12:14] WHOLE THING, IT SAYS TRUMP FAILS TO FINISH THE JOB IN TIME FOR
[00:12:17] THE JULY 4 CELEBRATIONS.
[00:12:23] THE PROJECT LAUNCHED WITH A MULTIBILLION-DOLLAR NO-BID
[00:12:26] CONTRACT AND WITHOUT THE NORMAL REVIEW PROCESS, DEMONSTRATION OF
[00:12:29] HOW QUICKLY HE COULD TRANSFORM WASHINGTON.
[00:12:34] THAT IS THE WASHINGTON POST.
[00:12:36] THIS IS ALYSSA IN MARYLAND, DEMOCRAT.
[00:12:41] CALLER: GOOD MORNING, MIMI. I WANTED TO SAY, I AM CALLING ON
[00:12:44] THE DEMOCRATIC LINE, BUT BEFORE
[00:12:47] I REGISTERED AS A DEMOCRAT, I
[00:12:51] WAS AN AMERICAN. I AM AN AMERICAN.
[00:12:56] AND I THINK DONALD TRUMP PUTTING
[00:12:59] UP HIS PERSONAL ATTORNEY AS
[00:13:03] ATTORNEY, SOMEONE WHO OWES HIS
[00:13:08] ALLEGIANCE TO HIM AND NOT TO OUR CONSTITUTION. AND ONE THING I WANT TO SAY
[00:13:12] ABOUT THAT POOL, DONALD TRUMP
[00:13:16] ACTS LIKE HE WANTS TO BE A MOB
[00:13:20] BOSS. AND ONE OF THE THINGS THAT IS
[00:13:23] KNOWN ABOUT MOB LIKE PEOPLE --
[00:13:27] NO OFFENSE TO THEM -- IS THAT THEY GET KICKBACKS ON
[00:13:30] CONSTRUCTION PROPERTIES.
[00:13:33] IS THAT WHY HE WANTS ATTORNEY
[00:13:36] GENERAL, SO HIM AND HIS FAMILY
[00:13:38] WON'T BE INVESTIGATED ON KICKBACKS?
[00:13:41] THAT'S IT.
[00:13:43] HOST: AND THIS IS CONNECTICUT
[00:13:50] DEMOCRAT SENATOR RICHARD BLUMENTHAL YESTERDAY ON THE
[00:13:51] SENATE FLOOR, ABOUT WHY HE IS
[00:13:55] OPPOSED TO THE NOMINATION OF TODD BLANCHE AS ATTORNEY GENERAL. [VIDEO CLIP]
[00:14:00] >> IN FACT, THE DOCUMENT THAT
[00:14:04] PURPORTED TO SAY THAT THE TRUST
[00:14:09] FUND WAS DEAD, IN REALITY, IS A
[00:14:16] SHAM. IT IS A FRAUD ON THE UNITED
[00:14:18] STATES SENATE, JUST AS THE
[00:14:22] ALLEGEDLY COMMITTED FRAUD ON THE COURT IN FLORIDA.
[00:14:25] REASON IS QUITE SIMPLY THAT
[00:14:27] THERE WAS A CONTRACT HERE.
[00:14:30] THE AGREEMENT PRODUCE THAT CONTRACT.
[00:14:34] THE AGREEMENT WAS BETWEEN DONALD TRUMP AND THE UNITED STATES.
[00:14:37] DONALD TRUMP DID NOT IN ANY WAY
[00:14:42] FORGO ANY RIGHTS UNDER THAT CONTRACT. IT IS STILL BINDING.
[00:14:45] HE COULD GOING TO COURT TOMORROW
[00:14:49] TO ESTABLISH THE $1.8 BILLION
[00:14:54] FUND. LIKEWISE, THE IMMUNITY
[00:14:57] AGREEMENT, WHICH IS UNPRECEDENTED, WORTH HUNDREDS OF
[00:15:00] MILLIONS OF DOLLARS, IMMUNITY
[00:15:05] FROM AUDIT, GIVING HIM A FREE PASS FOR EVERYTHING THAT
[00:15:08] OCCURRED, THIS IMMUNITY
[00:15:12] NEGOTIATED BY TODD BLANCHE WITH
[00:15:18] ONLY TODD BLANCHE'S SIGNATURE ON IT.
[00:15:23] THE LIMITING OF THAT IMMUNITY OF
[00:15:26] TAX AUDIT FROM DONALD TRUMP, HIS
[00:15:29] SONS, HIS ORGANIZATIONS, WORTH HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS.
[00:15:32] UNPRECEDENTED, UNCONSCIONABLE. AND UNACCEPTABLE.
[00:15:38] AND ATTORNEY GENERAL OF THE UNITED STATES DEALING WITH
[00:15:41] POTENTIAL TAX VIOLATIONS OF LAW,
[00:15:45] SIGNING AWAY TAX LIABILITIES, NO
[00:15:49] MATTER HOW SERIOUS IT MIGHT BE.
[00:15:52] IT IS UNPRECEDENTED, AND NO ONE
[00:15:57] ELSE BUT THE PRESIDENT WOULD
[00:16:01] EVEN THINK OF TRYING TO GET IT
[00:16:04] IN THIS WAY, UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES, AND HE WAS ABLE
[00:16:07] TO GET IT, ONLY BECAUSE TODD
[00:16:12] BLANCHE ACTED AS HIS PERSONAL LAWYER, NOT AS ATTORNEY GENERAL
[00:16:16] OF THE UNITED STATES.
[00:16:19] HOST: WHAT IS YOUR TOP NEWS STORY OF THE DAY? THAT IS OUR QUESTION.
[00:16:23] WE WILL HEAR FROM GUY IN OKLAHOMA, REPUBLICAN.
[00:16:27] CALLER: GOOD MORNING, ME MIMI.
[00:16:29] I AM ON CNN, "WASHINGTON
[00:16:34] JOURNAL" FAKE NEWS, AWESOME. MY TOP NEWS STORY IS ALL THE
[00:16:40] ELECTION. MARKWAYNE MULLIN EXPOSED FROM
[00:16:41] FOUR RED STATES, 258,000 ILLEGAL
[00:16:47] ALIENS REGISTERED TO VOTE. MIMI, FOR THE LAST YEAR AND A
[00:16:51] HALF, YOU SAID ILLEGALS DO NOT VOTE IN THIS COUNTRY.
[00:16:54] IT IS NOT HAPPENING.
[00:16:56] HOST: TO BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS, DEMOCRAT.
[00:16:59] CALLER: GOOD MORNING. A COUPLE COMMENTS.
[00:17:03] FIRST, TRUMP SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN AN OFFICE IN THE FIRST PLACE.
[00:17:12] YOU HIT [INDISCERNIBLE]
[00:17:18] HOST: I AM HAVING TROUBLE FOLLOWING.
[00:17:20] CALLER: MY TOP NEWS STORY IS
[00:17:23] TRUMP SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN JAIL. HOST: FOR WHAT SPECIFICALLY?
[00:17:27] CALLER: FOR THE GOVERNMENT.
[00:17:30] THIS IS THE BIGGEST PRESIDENT
[00:17:35] THEY EVER GOT IN THE WHITE HOUSE
[00:17:37] TO TALK, THIS GUY GOT NOBODY.
[00:17:41] THAT IS WHEN PEOPLE START COMING FOR YOU.
[00:17:46] -- WANT TO GET RID OF THIS GUY. [INDISCERNIBLE]
[00:17:51] HOST: AND HERE IS ANDY AND LEXINGTON, KENTUCKY, REPUBLICAN.
[00:17:54] CALLER: GOOD MORNING.
[00:17:57] A FEW TOPICS, IF I MAY.
[00:18:02] YOU CUT THAT FELL OFF EARLIER,
[00:18:05] BUT HE WAS TALKING PRETTY GOOD. HOST: I DO NOT TAKE PERSONAL
[00:18:09] ATTACKS. THAT IS WHY I CUT HIM OFF. CALLER: I DID NOT HEAR HIM
[00:18:12] SAYING ANYTHING PERSONAL TO YOU, THOUGHT HE WAS TALKING ABOUT THE NETWORK.
[00:18:16] ANYHOW, THE LADY CALLED IN TALKING ABOUT JESUS, SHE DOES
[00:18:19] NOT KNOW THE 10 COMMANDMENTS.
[00:18:22] APPARENTLY, SHE WANTS TO STEAL AND SAY LOOK WHAT I STOLE FROM YOU, LORD.
[00:18:26] YOU DO NOT STEAL FROM PEOPLE AND GIVE IT TO THE POOR.
[00:18:29] YOU GIVE IT TO THE POOR. YOU DO NOT STEAL IT.
[00:18:33] DO NOT MAKE YOURSELF A GOD.
[00:18:34] HERE YOU GO AGAIN WITH THE
[00:18:40] ILLEGALS. EVERYBODY KNOWS THIS BACKDOOR AMNESTY. THEY'RE JUST TRYING TO MAKE
[00:18:44] FOOLS OF US. RIGHT UNDER OUR NOSE.
[00:18:46] YOU GIVE THEM ABILITY TO VOTE OR
[00:18:49] ABILITY TO GET A JOB, AND THEN
[00:18:53] THAT MAKES THEM LEGAL. SUPPOSEDLY.
[00:18:55] THEY GOT DOCUMENTATION, SO THEY ARE ALLOWED TO STAY HERE.
[00:18:58] ONCE THEY STAY HERE, THEY WILL HAVE CHILDREN, THAN THOSE
[00:19:02] CHILDREN WILL BE OK --
[00:19:04] HOST: GO BACK TO THAT, WHAT MAKES THEM LEGAL?
[00:19:09] WHEN THEY HAVE WHAT? CALLER: WHEN THEY HAVE CHILDREN,
[00:19:13] THEY HAVE A PERMANENT RIGHT TO BE HERE. THEN THEY WILL BRING IN THE
[00:19:16] PARENTS AND GRANDPARENTS. YOU KNOW ALL THIS. HOST: SO WHEN THEY HAVE
[00:19:20] CHILDREN, IF YOU ARE ILLEGAL AND
[00:19:21] YOU HAVE CHILDREN -- NO, THAT DOES NOT CHANGE YOUR LEGAL
[00:19:26] STATUS. BUT THE CHILDREN UNDER BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP ARE
[00:19:29] AMERICAN CITIZENS. BUT IT DOES NOT GIVE PARENTS THE RIGHTS.
[00:19:34] CALLER: YOU ARE LEGAL ONCE YOU GET A RIGHT TO WORK.
[00:19:38] YOU GET DOCUMENTATION SO YOU CAN WORK.
[00:19:41] HOST: HAVING A WORK PERMIT DOES
[00:19:42] NOT GIVE YOU THE RIGHT TO STAY.
[00:19:45] IT IS NOT A GREEN CARD, IT IS A WORK PERMIT.
[00:19:49] CALLER: DO YOU SEE ANYBODY ENFORCING IT THOUGH?
[00:19:53] HOST: ENFORCEMENT IS A DIFFERENT ISSUE.
[00:19:55] CAN I GO BACK TO WHAT YOU WERE
[00:19:57] SAYING ABOUT, THAT JESUS DID NOT
[00:20:01] TELL YOU TO STEAL, THE 10
[00:20:03] COMMANDMENTS -- THE CALLER SAID
[00:20:07] WE SHOULD HELP THE POOR. TELL ME ABOUT THE STEALING PART.
[00:20:11] CALLER: YOU WANT TO STEAL MY
[00:20:14] MONEY AND YOUR MONEY, MA'AM.
[00:20:16] HOST: ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT TAXES?
[00:20:20] CALLER: ABSOLUTELY. YOU HAVE COMMUNISM. THAT IS THE WAY.
[00:20:25] HOST: DO YOU BELIEVE ALL
[00:20:27] TAXATION IS STEALING FROM PEOPLE?
[00:20:30] CALLER: NO, NOT TAXATION, JUST
[00:20:34] LIKE JESUS WAS SAYING RING FROM CAESAR.
[00:20:40] WITH GOD, THEY HAVE TO HAVE THE GOVERNMENT, YOU HAVE TO HAVE
[00:20:43] LAWS AND WAYS TO ADJUDICATE THOSE LAWS.
[00:20:46] YOU HAVE TO HAVE THE POLICE AND MILITARY TO PROTECT YOU.
[00:20:50] THOSE ARE ALL GOOD THINGS.
[00:20:51] BUT DO NOT STILL PEOPLE MONEY.
[00:20:54] FOR SOMEBODY TO GET A TV SET OR
[00:20:58] WHATEVER, THEY DON'T WANT TO GET OUT AND WORK.
[00:21:01] THERE WAS ALSO THE FELLOW
[00:21:04] TALKING ABOUT THE STOCK MARKET. YOU THINK EVERYBODY GETS A CHANCE?
[00:21:07] IT IS THE GREATEST TIME IN THE WORLD TO GET INTO THE STOCK MARKET.
[00:21:11] GET YOU A PIECE OF IT. START YOU A BUSINESS. HOST: I HEAR YOU.
[00:21:16] I AM JUST SAYING THAT THERE ARE
[00:21:17] PEOPLE, AS YOU KNOW, THEY CANNOT
[00:21:20] AFFORD TO EAT RIGHT NOW, WHO MIGHT BE DOWN TO ONE MEAL A DAY
[00:21:23] BECAUSE THEY CANNOT AFFORD.
[00:21:27] SO THEY'RE CERTAINLY NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO AFFORD THE STOCK MARKET.
[00:21:31] IT IS NOT A QUESTION OF THEM NOT REALIZING THAT COULD BE INVESTED
[00:21:35] IN THE STOCK MARKET. CALLER: PERSONALLY, TO HELP
[00:21:37] THOSE PEOPLE OUT -- WE HAVE A
[00:21:42] GOBLET -- A GODLY CHRISTIAN DUTY
[00:21:46] TO HELP THOSE PEOPLE OUT INDIVIDUALLY. NOT TO STEAL YOUR MONEY AND GIVE
[00:21:50] IT TO THIS OLD WOMAN OR MAN OVER HERE A CHILD TO SAY, LOOK WHAT I
[00:21:53] STOLE FOR YOU, LORD, LOOK AT THE GOOD WORK CITED IN YOUR NAME,
[00:21:57] AREN'T I GREAT?
[00:22:00] HOST: I UNDERSTAND THAT YOU SEE
[00:22:03] JESUS ADMONITION TO HELP THE POOR AS A PERSONAL THING, NOT A GOVERNMENT THING.
[00:22:08] YOU PERSONALLY SHOULD BE HELPING
[00:22:11] THE LESS ADVANTAGED, BUT YOU DO NOT BELIEVE THAT THE GOVERNMENT
[00:22:14] HAS A ROLE IN HELPING THE LESS ADVANTAGED.
[00:22:17] CALLER: NO, THAT IS INDIVIDUAL. IF I STEAL YOUR MONEY AND TAKE
[00:22:21] IT FOR THIS OR THAT -- HOST: GOT THAT POINT.
[00:22:26] HERE IS VICE PRESIDENT JD VANCE AT A ROUNDTABLE TALKING ABOUT
[00:22:30] FRAUD IN HIS EFFORTS TO COMBAT THAT. [VIDEO CLIP]
[00:22:34] >> I REMIND ALL YOU AND THE
[00:22:36] AMERICAN PEOPLE AND THE
[00:22:41] CONGRESSMEN AND SENATORS DO NOT
[00:22:42] NEED REMINDING, FRAUD IS A
[00:22:46] CRIME. THE AMERICAN TAXPAYER HAS THEIR
[00:22:48] HARD-EARNED TAX DOLLARS STOLEN FROM THEM.
[00:22:52] I THINK MORE PROFOUNDLY AND MORE
[00:22:56] SADLY, THE SECOND VICTIM OF FRAUD OR THE PEOPLE WHO BENEFIT
[00:22:59] FROM PROGRAMS THE AMERICAN PEOPLE HAVE SET UP THROUGH THEIR
[00:23:02] GENEROSITY AND THE KINDNESS OF SPIRIT, THOSE PROGRAMS DO NOT
[00:23:06] FUNCTION AS WELL DO NOT EVEN HAVE THE RESOURCES NECESSARY TO
[00:23:10] WORK BECAUSE THEY HAVE BEEN STOLEN FROM MY FRAUDSTERS.
[00:23:13] AN EXAMPLE THAT IS PARTICULARLY
[00:23:16] CLOSE TO MY HEART BECAUSE WE HAVE A TWO WEEK OLD NEWBORN AT
[00:23:19] HOME AS THE PROGRAM WE SET UP THROUGH THE MEDICAID PROGRAM TO
[00:23:23] ACTUALLY PROVIDE HIGH-QUALITY HEALTH CARE TO NEW MOMS AND NEWBORN INFANTS.
[00:23:27] PEOPLE WHO CANNOT AFFORD HIGH-QUALITY HEALTH CARE, WE AS
[00:23:30] A GENEROUS NATION AND SURE THEY
[00:23:31] HAVE ACCESS TO THE RESOURCES THEY NEED.
[00:23:36] YET, WE HAVE, WORKING WITH DOJ AND OTHERS, IDENTIFIED AND
[00:23:40] PROSECUTED A NUMBER OF CASES OF PEOPLE WHERE THEY HAVE TAKEN
[00:23:43] FROM THIS PROGRAM, NOT PROVIDED AN OUNCE OF SERVICE TO A NEW MOM
[00:23:47] OR A YOUNG BABY, AND ENRICHED THEMSELVES BY LITERALLY TAKING
[00:23:51] MONEY FROM THE MEDICAL CARE OF A
[00:23:56] NEWBORN INFANT. THIS IS DESPICABLE BEHAVIOR AND
[00:23:59] SOMETHING WE HAVE ALLOWED TO GO ON FOR TOO LONG IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
[00:24:03] I AM VERY PROUD TO NOT JUST LOOK AT THE SORT OF QUALITATIVE
[00:24:07] STORIES ABOUT WHAT IS GOING ON, BUT WE CAN MEASURE THE SUCCESS
[00:24:10] OF THE FRAUD TASK FORCE, WORKING
[00:24:14] WITH ANDREW FERGUSON AND WITH STEVE MILLER, TWO OF THE GREAT
[00:24:17] ALL-STARS OF THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION, WE HAVE BEEN
[00:24:20] ABLE TO IDENTIFY $230 BILLION OF
[00:24:26] FRAUD JUST SINCE THE FRAUD TASK FORCE WAS SET UP.
[00:24:29] THAT IS CONSERVATIVELY ESTIMATING IT.
[00:24:31] ANDREW AND I MET LAST WEEK, AND
[00:24:33] HE SAID IF YOU WANT TO ESTIMATE IT CONSERVATIVELY OR
[00:24:37] AGGRESSIVELY, AND I SAID I KIND OF WANT TO AGGRESSIVELY BUT THEN
[00:24:39] ALL YOU PEOPLE WOULD CRITICIZE
[00:24:42] US, SO LET'S ESTIMATE IT CONSERVATIVELY SO WE CAN GIVE
[00:24:45] THE AMERICAN PEOPLE THE MOST
[00:24:47] ROCKSOLID INFORMATION OF HOW
[00:24:50] THIS TASK FORCE IS WORKING TO PROTECT YOUR MONEY.
[00:24:52] WE HAVE STOPPED 56 MILLION
[00:24:55] DOLLARS IN FRAUDULENT PAYMENTS THAT WOULD HAVE GOTTEN
[00:24:57] FRAUDSTERS.
[00:25:02] HOST: THAT FULL EVENT IS ON OUR
[00:25:04] WEBSITE, C-SPAN.ORG.
[00:25:07] REGARDING NONCITIZENS ON VOTER ROLLS, THIS IS FOX NEWS WITH
[00:25:10] THAT ARTICLE.
[00:25:13] MORE THAN A QUARTER MILLION NONCITIZENS MAY BE REGISTERED TO
[00:25:17] VOTE IN FOUR STATES, CALIFORNIA
[00:25:21] WITH NEARLY 191,000
[00:25:24] REGISTRATIONS AS STATES ARE
[00:25:26] ASKED TO VERIFY VOTER ROLLS.
[00:25:29] POLLITT A FACT HAS A FACT-CHECK
[00:25:32] OF THAT, CHECKING THE TRUMP
[00:25:33] ADMINISTRATION'S COUNT.
[00:25:37] THE ARTICLE WILL GIVE YOU A
[00:25:41] BREAKDOWN OF WHERE THAT NUMBER
[00:25:42] MIGHT HAVE COME FROM.
[00:25:51] TO TEXAS, DEMOCRAT. CALLER: GOOD MORNING.
[00:25:56] I JUST LISTENED TO THE EPISODE
[00:25:58] THERE ABOUT THE FRAUD IN THE
[00:26:02] $230 BILLION FRAUD, AND IT
[00:26:06] CRACKS ME UP THAT TODAY WE'RE
[00:26:09] PROBABLY GOING TO HAVE EVIDENCE
[00:26:11] OF SOME FRAUD THAT THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION IS DOING ALMOST
[00:26:14] EVERY DAY.
[00:26:17] IT IS JUST SO FUNNY TO LISTEN TO
[00:26:20] VANCE GO ON WITH STEPHEN MILLER SITTING NEXT TO HIM, THE
[00:26:24] ARCHITECT OF THE ICE ACTIVITY
[00:26:29] GOING ON IN AMERICA, TALKING ABOUT FRAUD. REALLY?
[00:26:33] COME ON NOW. WHEN YOU HAVE GOT KING TRUMP IN
[00:26:36] THE WHITE HOUSE TALKING ABOUT
[00:26:39] COMMUNISTS WHEN WE HAVE AN
[00:26:42] ALMOST FASCIST GOVERNMENT LIVING
[00:26:43] RIGHT NOW TODAY IN THE WHITE HOUSE AND IN WASHINGTON, AND
[00:26:47] HERE WE ARE TALKING ABOUT DEMOCRAT SOCIALIST AND
[00:26:51] COMMUNISM. REALLY? COME ON NOW.
[00:26:53] THIS IS 2026, AND ALL OF THAT
[00:26:57] DOES NOT MATTER ANYMORE. WHAT WE HAVE NOW IS A MAN IN THE WHITE HOUSE WHO WANTS TO BE KING
[00:27:01] FOR LIFE.
[00:27:04] AND HIS ADMINISTRATION IS LETTING HIM HAVE THAT.
[00:27:07] AND THE DEMOCRATS WHO ARE SPEAKING FOR THE MERE ORDINARY
[00:27:10] PEOPLE ARE BEING LABELED AS COMMUNISTS. WELL, IF YOU HAD A CHOICE
[00:27:14] BETWEEN WHAT WE HAVE RIGHT NOW TODAY AND WHAT THEY SAY IS
[00:27:18] COMMUNISM, WELL, YOU KNOW, IT IS
[00:27:20] THE LESSER OF THE TWO EVILS.
[00:27:25] THAT IS THE COMMENTS I WANTED TO MAKE.
[00:27:28] HOST: OK, ROMEO. TELL ME ABOUT THE SENATE RACE IN
[00:27:33] TEXAS, BETWEEN DEMOCRAT JAMES TALARICO AND REPUBLICAN KEN PAXTON.
[00:27:36] HOW ARE YOU FEELING ABOUT THE CHANCES OF TALARICO? WHAT DO YOUR NEIGHBORS THINK?
[00:27:43] CALLER: I THINK IT IS GOING TO BE A TIDAL WAVE OF BLUE HERE IN TEXAS.
[00:27:47] IF YOU REMEMBER, WE USED TO HAVE
[00:27:49] AN RICHARDS AS OUR GOVERNOR IN THE 1990'S.
[00:27:53] WE WERE A DEMOCRATIC STATE UP
[00:27:55] UNTIL THE TEA PARTY, AND THAT ASPECT OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY
[00:27:59] TOOK OVER.
[00:28:02] TEXAS, WE HAD LYNDON JOHNSON,
[00:28:05] ANN RICHARDS, THE LIST GOES ON.
[00:28:09] HOST: BUT WHAT DO YOU THINK IT
[00:28:11] IS THAT IT WILL BE THIS BLUE WAVE?
[00:28:14] WHAT ARE THE ISSUES YOU THINK THAT TEXANS ARE GOING TO VOTE ON
[00:28:19] FOR SENATE? CALLER: MY DAUGHTER STRUGGLES TO
[00:28:22] GET CHILD SUPPORT FROM A DEADBEAT DAD BECAUSE THAT
[00:28:25] ATTORNEY GENERAL HERE IN TEXAS, THEY ARE NOT DOING THEIR JOB.
[00:28:29] SO I PREDICT ACROSS THE COUNTRY
[00:28:33] A TIDAL WAVE OF BLUE. HOPE TO SEE IT.
[00:28:36] I WILL BE EARLY VOTING IN
[00:28:40] NOVEMBER, AND TALARICO IS MY PICK.
[00:28:43] HOST: WE WILL BE WATCHING VERY CLOSELY ON THOSE MIDTERM
[00:28:47] ELECTIONS. ROMEO DID MENTION ICE AND
[00:28:51] IMMIGRATION ENFORCEMENT. THERE IS AN ARTICLE ON THE WALL
[00:28:52] STREET JOURNAL THAT SAYS
[00:28:56] AIRLINES PUSH BACK AGAINST ICE ENFORCEMENT AT AIRPORTS.
[00:28:59] IT TALKS ABOUT HOW -- AND THIS
[00:29:02] ONE CASE, THERE WAS AN ICE
[00:29:07] OFFICER THAT TRIED TO BOARD A SOUTHWEST AIRLINES FLIGHT IN DALLAS TO MAKE AN ARREST, BUT
[00:29:11] THE AIRLINE REBUFFED HIM.
[00:29:16] IT SAYS OFFICERS AT ICE HAVE MADE OCCASIONAL ARREST AT
[00:29:19] AIRPORTS OVER THE PAST YEAR, BUT
[00:29:21] THE AGENCY HAS SINCE STEPPED UP ENFORCEMENT.
[00:29:25] TOP ICE LEADERS HAVE TOLD OFFICERS THEY SHOULD ATTEMPT
[00:29:29] ARRESTS AT TSA CHECKPOINTS WHEN POSSIBLE, BUT THEY BELIEVE THE
[00:29:32] DIRECTIVE HAS NOT BEEN FOLLOWED.
[00:29:36] IN RECENT WEEKS, OFFICERS HAVE BROADENED THEIR APPROACH TO MAKE
[00:29:39] MORE ARRESTS NEAR GAETZ AND
[00:29:42] TICKET COUNTERS AT AIRPORTS IN SAN FRANCISCO TO MIAMI TO KANSAS
[00:29:47] CITY, MISSOURI.
[00:29:48] IT SAYS MANY PEOPLE TAKEN INTO
[00:29:51] CUSTODY HAVE NOT TRADITIONALLY BEEN TARGETED BY ICE.
[00:29:56] EARLIER CASES PRIMARILY INVOLVED FINAL DEPORTATION ORDERS.
[00:30:00] THE ARRESTS NOW INVOLVE PEOPLE
[00:30:02] WITH EXPIRED VISAS BUT ANOTHER
[00:30:04] FORM OF LEGAL STATUS PENDING,
[00:30:09] SHOWING GREEN CARD OR ASYLUM APPLICATIONS.
[00:30:12] VISA HOLDERS WITH APPLICATIONS PENDING HAVE TYPICALLY BEEN ALLOWED TO CONTINUE WORKING IN
[00:30:16] THE U.S. AND HAVE PROTECTIONS FROM BEING DEPORTED.
[00:30:19] ICE HAS ARGUED THAT THE EXPIRED
[00:30:21] VISAS ARE GROUNDS FOR ARREST.
[00:30:23] HERE IS SEAN IN COLUMBIA, MARYLAND, REPUBLICAN.
[00:30:28] CALLER: HELLO, HOW ARE YOU.
[00:30:30] THIS IS A QUICK ONE.
[00:30:33] MY MAIN NEWS STORY IS THE RAPID GROWTH OF ANTI-SEMITISM AND THE
[00:30:37] DEMOCRATIC PARTY, FUELED BY THE FAR LEFT.
[00:30:40] THERE IS SUCH A CIVIL WAR GOING
[00:30:43] ON IN THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY RIGHT NOW. THEY KNOW THESE PEOPLE CANNOT
[00:30:47] HOLD NATIONAL OFFICES, SO THE
[00:30:51] DEMOCRATIC PARTY IS BEING TURNED UPSIDE DOWN BY A VERY FEW THAT
[00:30:54] WANT TO TURN THIS COUNTRY INTO A SOCIALIST COMMUNIST COUNTRY.
[00:30:57] THE OTHER POINT IS TO THE WOMAN
[00:30:59] THAT CALLED JESUS A SOCIALIST.
[00:31:03] UNFORTUNATELY WITH THIS PARTY, THEY WOULD HATE JESUS SIMPLY
[00:31:05] BECAUSE HE IS JEWISH.
[00:31:08] THANK YOU.
[00:31:10] HOST: HERE IS GEORGE IN COLORADO, INDEPENDENT LINE. GO AHEAD.
[00:31:15] CALLER: YES, GOOD MORNING.
[00:31:17] I AGREE ON THAT GUY 100% ABOUT
[00:31:22] JESUS CHRIST. YOU KNOW, WE HAVE NO POLITICS IN AMERICA. IT IS OVER.
[00:31:28] TRUMP ON FEBRUARY 28 STARTED THE
[00:31:31] WAR WITH IRAN WITHOUT EVEN
[00:31:34] BRINGING IT TO CONGRESS OR ANY
[00:31:37] OF OUR ALLY FRIENDS, THOSE PRIME
[00:31:46] MINISTERS IN EUROPE.
[00:31:47] IT IS OVER FOR THIS COUNTRY.
[00:31:51] HOST: TELL ME MORE ABOUT WHAT YOU MEAN BY OVER.
[00:31:56] CALLER: COMPLETELY OVER, MA'AM.
[00:31:59] YOU WOULD BE A FOOL TO THINK
[00:32:02] THAT THIS COUNTRY IS NOT OVER. IT IS OVER.
[00:32:06] THE WORLD IS ON FIRE.
[00:32:09] WE DROPPING BOMBS ON PEOPLE.
[00:32:12] I MEAN, ISRAEL, I MYSELF AM A
[00:32:16] JEW,
[00:32:18] MY FATHER WAS HUNGARIAN JEW, MY
[00:32:23] MOTHER WAS IRISH CATHOLIC, AND I GREW UP IN NEW YORK, WENT TO THE
[00:32:27] SYNAGOGUE ON SATURDAY AND THE CATHOLIC CHURCH ON SUNDAY.
[00:32:29] TO ME, IT IS OVER.
[00:32:32] I TURN ON THE NEWS, I SEE
[00:32:36] EARTHQUAKES, HURRICANES, TORNADOES.
[00:32:39] IT IS JUST THE WORLD THAT IS
[00:32:40] HEATING UP TO 142 DEGREES IN
[00:32:44] JAPAN YESTERDAY, WHICH IS
[00:32:48] CELSIUS. WE ARE SEEING IT ALL OVER THE
[00:32:51] WORLD.
[00:32:53] WHAT PEOPLE NEED TO DO IS WE'RE
[00:32:57] 18 INCHES FROM A GOD WHO HAS CREATED US, FROM OUR KNEES TO
[00:33:01] THE FLOOR, PEOPLE.
[00:33:05] CHRISTIANS. WHAT CHRISTIANS? THEY GOT BIG CHURCHES IN THE
[00:33:08] UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, WITH
[00:33:10] ONE POMPOUS ASS PERSON PREACHING
[00:33:14] FROM A PULPIT TO 5000 PEOPLE. HOST: WE GOT YOUR POINT.
[00:33:19] THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER SAYS THIS, SENATE REPUBLICANS ARE AN
[00:33:22] CAMPAIGN CALLING EL-SAYED
[00:33:28] DANGEROUSLY RADICAL AFTER MICHIGAN VICTORY. [VIDEO CLIP]
[00:33:30] >> THEY HAVE TAKEN TO CALLING ME
[00:33:35] DANGEROUS.
[00:33:39] I AM DANGEROUS.
[00:33:41] OUR STATE WILL NOT DEFEND GUY
[00:33:47] ENFORCING FEDERAL IMMIGRATION POLICIES. I'M SURE I DANGEROUS.
[00:33:50] >> ABDUL EL-SAYED, DANGEROUSLY
[00:33:55] RADICAL. >> I FOR SURE AM DANGEROUS.
[00:33:56] I AM PRETTY DAMN DANGEROUS.
[00:34:01] HOST: WHAT IS YOUR TOP NEWS STORY OF THE DAY?
[00:34:06] MARY, DEMOCRAT, SOUTH CAROLINA. CALLER: GOOD MORNING, MIMI.
[00:34:10] I WANT TO SAY SOME THINGS AND
[00:34:13] HOPEFULLY YOU AND YOUR LISTENERS CAN MAKE SOME SENSE OUT OF IT.
[00:34:18] I WAS BORN IN NORTH CAROLINA AND
[00:34:21] MY PARENTS MOVED TO NEW YORK IN 1948.
[00:34:23] SO I GREW UP -- I KNOW DONALD
[00:34:27] TRUMP VERY WELL BECAUSE I HAD THE EXPERIENCE OF LIVING THERE
[00:34:30] AND GOT A CHANCE TO SEE THE
[00:34:36] NEWS.
[00:34:38] HE IS VERY GOOD WHEN TALKING TO THE NEWS BECAUSE HE HAS FOR
[00:34:42] YEARS AND HAS PERFECTED IT. I CALLED YOUR SHOW ONE TIME AND
[00:34:45] ASKED WHY DONALD TRUMP -- THE
[00:34:50] SPEAKER THERE SAID HE IS THE MOST HATED PRESIDENT IN THE WORLD.
[00:34:53] HE CAN'T BE, BECAUSE I NEVER
[00:34:55] HEAR ANYBODY TALK ABOUT WHAT HE DID IN NEW YORK.
[00:34:59] HE USED TO OWN THE PAGEANTS, AND
[00:35:08] THERE WAS A BIG SCANDAL ABOUT THAT, WHAT HE DID TO THOSE YOUNG
[00:35:10] GIRLS THERE AND TO THE U.S.
[00:35:16] TEENAGERS. THAT NEVER CAME OUT.
[00:35:17] IT NEVER CAME OUT ABOUT HIM
[00:35:21] AFFILIATED WITH THE MAFIA IN NEW YORK.
[00:35:26] NOBODY TALKS ABOUT THAT.
[00:35:28] THEY TALKED ABOUT THE EPSTEIN,
[00:35:30] THAT HAPPENED BACK IN THE 1990'S, THAT IS PROBABLY COMING OUT.
[00:35:37] ALL THIS STUFF, NOBODY IS SAYING ANYTHING.
[00:35:42] DONALD TRUMP HAS BEEN PERFECTING
[00:35:50] EVERYTHING CRICKET HE DID BACK IN THE 1990'S.
[00:35:54] HOST: YOU SAID DONALD TRUMP HAD AFFILIATIONS WITH THE MAFIA?
[00:35:58] IS THERE EVIDENCE OF THAT OR IS THAT SPECULATION?
[00:36:02] CALLER: NO, NO, NO. LOOK IT UP, IT WAS A SCANDAL
[00:36:06] WHEN HE WAS TRYING TO GET THEM
[00:36:08] TO GO WITH HIM WITH THE CASINOS
[00:36:12] AND DIFFERENT VENTURES HE WANTED TO DO.
[00:36:15] AND HE WAS AFFILIATED WITH MAFIA.
[00:36:18] IT WAS A BIG SCANDAL WITH THAT. YOU CAN LOOK IT UP.
[00:36:22] EVERYTHING I AM SAYING, YOU CAN LOOK IT UP.
[00:36:24] THEY NEVER TALK ABOUT HIS FATHER
[00:36:26] BEING ARRESTED TWICE.
[00:36:30] THE KKK.
[00:36:34] AND DONALD TRUMP WAS RAISED UP AS A RACIST.
[00:36:37] NOW HE IS A RACIST AND A BIGOT.
[00:36:40] HE DON'T LIKE POOR PEOPLE, NEVER DID.
[00:36:43] HE ALWAYS HUNG AROUND PEOPLE THAT WAS RICH.
[00:36:47] HE NEVER CARE ABOUT POOR PEOPLE. THAT IS WHY HE NOT DOING NOTHING.
[00:36:51] HE DON'T CARE ABOUT US. IF YOU ARE NOT A MILLIONAIRE OR
[00:36:54] SOMEBODY IN HOLLYWOOD, AND THEN
[00:36:57] DONE TURN HIS BACK ON HIM, THE HOLLYWOOD PEOPLE DID. AND THAT IS WHAT HE DID ALL HIS
[00:37:01] LIFE.
[00:37:04] HE CLOWNED AROUND WITH RICH PEOPLE. HOST: GOT THAT.
[00:37:08] TO FLORIDA, REPUBLICAN.
[00:37:10] CALLER: HEY, IT IS BEN FROM
[00:37:14] FLORIDA. I WANT TO TALK ABOUT ABDUL EL-SAYED'S VICTORY.
[00:37:20] I THINK FLORIDA REPUBLICANS CAN
[00:37:20] LEARN A HELL OF A LOT FROM THAT.
[00:37:26] HE IS ENERGETIC, TALKING ABOUT
[00:37:29] POLICIES, TALKING ABOUT THINGS THAT WERE GOING ON IN MICHIGAN.
[00:37:34] YOU GOT THE STEVENS CAMPAIGN, SHE CANNOT SEEM TO SHIFT THE
[00:37:38] FOCUS AWAY FROM HER GENERALIZED
[00:37:41] TALK --
[00:37:48] HOST: THIS IS ALEXIS IN MICHIGAN, INDEPENDENT LINE. GO AHEAD.
[00:37:53] CALLER: YEAH, I WANT TO TALK
[00:37:58] ABOUT THE MICHIGAN SENATE
[00:37:59] PRIMARY FOR DEMOCRATS.
[00:38:04] I JUST WANT TO SAY I AM AN INDEPENDENT.
[00:38:06] I CALL ON THE INDEPENDENT LINE.
[00:38:12] MICHIGAN, THE YOUNG FOLKS WHO VOTED FOR HIM, THEY JUST MADE A
[00:38:16] BIG MISTAKE, BECAUSE I BELIEVE
[00:38:17] THE OLD WHITE MAN WILL WIN BY A
[00:38:20] LARGE MARGIN IN THE STATE OF MICHIGAN.
[00:38:23] BORN AND RAISED IN THE STATE,
[00:38:26] AND I JUST DO NOT THINK, NUMBER
[00:38:29] ONE, PEOPLE WILL VOTE FOR THE
[00:38:32] FIRST MUSLIM SENATOR, AND NUMBER
[00:38:35] TWO, I DO NOT THINK THEY ARE
[00:38:36] GOING TO VOTE FOR HIM BECAUSE HE
[00:38:39] IS TOO COCKY.
[00:38:42] HE IS SO BRASH AND IS JUST BRIMMING WITH, YOU KNOW, JUST
[00:38:46] LIKE DONALD TRUMP, BRIMMING WITH
[00:38:49] EGOTISM AND ARROGANCE AND HE IS THE BEST AND HE IS THE SMARTEST
[00:38:52] AND HE IS THE BEST --
[00:38:56] HOST: ALEXIS, YOU KNOW DONALD TRUMP WAS ELECTED PRESIDENT.
[00:39:02] YOU SAID HE IS PROUD AND
[00:39:05] ARROGANT LIKE PRESIDENT TRUMP. IT WORKED FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP, APPARENTLY.
[00:39:10] OR AT LEAST PEOPLE DID NOT MINDED. CALLER: EXACTLY.
[00:39:14] BUT THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED,
[00:39:17] MICHIGAN IS AN OPEN PRIMARY, AND
[00:39:18] I KNOW REPUBLICANS IN MY FAMILY
[00:39:22] WHO VOTED IN THAT ELECTION THIS
[00:39:26] WEEK TO GIVE EL-SAYED ALL THE
[00:39:31] VOTES SO HE WOULD WIN AGAINST THE MODERATE, WHO I DID NOT LIKE
[00:39:35] HER EITHER, THAT IS WHAT HAPPENS
[00:39:36] WHEN YOU HAVE AN OPEN PRIMARY. I DO NOT BELIEVE IN THIS.
[00:39:41] BECAUSE THE OTHER SIDE, MEANING THE REPUBLICANS, GET TO GO TO
[00:39:45] THE BALLOT BOX AND SAY, HMM,
[00:39:50] WHICH CANDIDATE DO WE WANT TO RUN AGAINST?
[00:39:52] AND THEY CHOSE EL-SAYED.
[00:39:55] I THINK MIKE ROGERS IS GOING TO SWEEP IT. IT IS UNFORTUNATE.
[00:39:58] I THINK THE YOUNG FOLKS WHO SUPPORTED HIM ARE GOING TO GET A BIG WAKE-UP CALL.
[00:40:02] I DO NOT HAVE ANYTHING AGAINST HIS ECONOMIC POLICIES.
[00:40:05] I HAVE A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH HIS SOCIAL POLICIES.
[00:40:10] THE ICE STUFF, IMMIGRATION STUFF. I JUST WANT TO MAKE THAT CLEAR
[00:40:13] THAT IT WAS AN OPEN PRIMARY, AND
[00:40:16] REPUBLICANS VOTED FOR HIM. HOST: ALL RIGHT.
[00:40:21] LET'S HEAR FROM LET'S HEAR FROM
[00:40:24] ABDUL EL-SAYED YESTERDAY. [VIDEO CLIP]
[00:40:30] >> THAT'S THE BEST YOU GOT?
[00:40:34] YOU CANNOT TALK ABOUT YOU WANT TO DO.
[00:40:36] MY NAME IS NOT RAISING YOUR GAS PRICES.
[00:40:40] MY NAME IS NOT THE REASON YOU CANNOT AFFORD YOUR GROCERIES.
[00:40:44] YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?
[00:40:47] YOU CAN POINT TO MY NAME ALL YOU WANT.
[00:40:51] I HAVE BEEN AND ABDUL IN MICHIGAN MY WHOLE LIFE.
[00:40:54] THIS IS THE BEST PLACE TO BE ABDUL. YOU KNOW WHY?
[00:41:00] THEY ARE OPEN-MINDED, EARNEST,
[00:41:02] AND GREAT, THE MICHIGANDERS.
[00:41:07] MICHIGANDERS ARE SICK AND TIRED
[00:41:09] OF BS POLITICS COMING INTO
[00:41:13] NEVADA WHEN THERE'S SO MUCH MORE .
[00:41:17] PEOPLE ARE WILLING TO COME TOGETHER AROUND IT.
[00:41:20] IF ALL YOU GOT IS THAT HIS NAME
[00:41:21] IS ABDUL AND MY NAME IS MIKE,
[00:41:24] YOU MIGHT BE SURPRISED.
[00:41:28] BUT THAT IS THE ONE THAT WANTS TO STOP SENDING MONEY ABROAD.
[00:41:36] HOST: WE ARE ASKING ABOUT YOUR TOP NEWS STORY.
[00:41:39] IN AUSTIN, TEXAS, LINE FOR DEMOCRATS.
[00:41:42] YOU ARE ON THE AIR, DAVID.
[00:41:44] CALLER: YES, COULD YOU ANSWER THIS QUESTION FOR ME?
[00:41:48] IS DONALD TRUMP FACING INDICTMENTS?
[00:41:52] HOST: RIGHT NOW, THE ANSWER IS NO BECAUSE HE IS PRESIDENT.
[00:41:55] CALLER: OK, SO WHEN HE STEPS
[00:42:00] DOWN IN 2029, HE WILL BE FACING
[00:42:04] INDICTMENTS? HOST: I AM NOT SURE, DAVID.
[00:42:06] BUT WE HAVE AN ATTORNEY COMING ON NEXT, AND WE WILL DEFINITELY
[00:42:10] ASK THAT IF YOU WOULD LIKE. CALLER: YES.
[00:42:15] YES, BECAUSE I AM BELIEVING THAT --
[00:42:18] HOST: YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT FOR
[00:42:20] THE PREVIOUS INDICTMENTS, LIKE
[00:42:24] JANUARY 6?
[00:42:30] CALLER: YEAH, I THINK THERE ARE A COUPLE MORE. NOT FOR SURE. HOST: AND THE CASE IN GEORGIA.
[00:42:37] CALLER: DONALD TRUMP, WHAT HE IS
[00:42:40] TRYING TO DO, IS GET MORE
[00:42:45] REPUBLICAN VOTERS TO MORE
[00:42:52] DEMOCRATIC VOTERS.
[00:42:53] SO IN 2028 FOR THE PRESIDENTIAL
[00:42:58] ELECTION, THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF
[00:43:00] THE UNITED STATES IS GOING TO BE REPUBLICAN.
[00:43:03] SO IF HE IS FACING INDICTMENTS
[00:43:05] IN 2029 OR WHATEVER, HE MAY GET
[00:43:11] TRIED AND CONVICTED, GO UPSTATE
[00:43:14] OR WHATEVER, AND THEN THAT NEW
[00:43:17] REPUBLICAN PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES WILL PARDON HIM.
[00:43:22] CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG. HOST: OK.
[00:43:25] WE WILL ASK ABOUT THAT. GREGORY IN PENNSYLVANIA,
[00:43:29] INDEPENDENT.
[00:43:33] CALLER: MORNING, THANK YOU FOR TAKING MY CALL.
[00:43:35] I HAVE ONE THING TO TALK ABOUT.
[00:43:39] IT HAS BEEN AN ISSUE ALL THE TIME, NOT JUST TODAY.
[00:43:42] I HAVE HEARD PEOPLE SAYING THAT
[00:43:46] THE IRS IS STEALING THEIR TAXES
[00:43:50] AND THE GOVERNMENT IS STEALING
[00:43:51] THEIR TAXES, AND THE THING IS,
[00:43:56] THEY GOT TO REMEMBER, THEY VOTED
[00:43:57] IN THE PEOPLE WHO DECIDE ON WHICH TAXES THEY SHOULD HAVE TO PAY.
[00:44:03] SO IF ANYBODY IS MORE
[00:44:05] RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT, IT IS THE
[00:44:09] REPRESENTATIVES, OF COURSE. IT IS NOT THE EMPLOYEES, JUST
[00:44:12] LIKE EMPLOYEE OF OTHER AGENCIES.
[00:44:19] PEOPLE ELECT THEM FOR NO REAL REASON AND STUFF LIKE THAT.
[00:44:22] THAT IS THE KIND OF THING I AM TALKING ABOUT, NOT RIGHT.
[00:44:26] ANOTHER POINT I WANT TO MAKE IS
[00:44:28] I HEAR A LOT OF PEOPLE TALK
[00:44:30] ABOUT HOW THIS COUNTRY WAS BUILT ON CHRISTIAN VALUES.
[00:44:35] CHRISTIAN VALUES WERE PART OF WHAT THIS COUNTRY WAS BUILT ON.
[00:44:37] IT WAS ALSO BUILT ON OTHER VALUES FROM OTHER RELIGIONS.
[00:44:42] BASICALLY, OUR FOUR OFFENDERS --
[00:44:46] OUR FOUNDERS, YOU CAN SEE THEIR
[00:44:51] RELIGION IS MASON.
[00:44:53] SOME CHRISTIAN, BUT THEY WERE
[00:44:56] MASONS ALSO.
[00:44:58] BACK THEN, YOU WILL SEE THE
[00:45:05] CAPITOL BUILDING, IT WAS FULL
[00:45:09] MASON REGALIA THEY WERE WEARING.
[00:45:12] SO THIS COUNTRY WAS NOT JUST BUILT ON CHRISTIANITY, IT WAS
[00:45:15] BUILT ON CHRISTIANITY AND ON
[00:45:19] PRINCIPLES TAKEN FROM CHRISTIANITY, PRINCIPLES TAKEN
[00:45:23] FROM OTHER RELIGIONS, PUT TOGETHER BY THE MASONS AND CAME
[00:45:27] UP TO FORM GOVERNMENT. HOST: ALL RIGHT.
[00:45:30] DOUG IS A REPUBLICAN IN VIRGINIA, GOOD MORNING.
[00:45:35] CALLER: MORNING. WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO FIND OUT
[00:45:38] IS, WHEN DID WE GET TO WHERE WE ARE IN THIS COUNTRY?
[00:45:41] THIS COUNTRY WAS FOUNDED BY YOUR
[00:45:45] GREAT GRANDPARENTS AND MY GREAT GRANDPARENTS, THEY DID NOT HAVE
[00:45:48] MEDICAL, THEY HAD NO ONE HANDING THEM FOOD. THEY HAD NO ONE COME AND SIT AT
[00:45:52] HOME IF YOU HAVE A KID AND PAY FOR THEM. YOU WORKED.
[00:45:57] THAT IS HOW YOU GET AHEAD.
[00:46:01] PEOPLE WHINE ABOUT THEY CANNOT GET IN THE STOCK MARKET.
[00:46:05] WELL, I HAVE WORKED THREE JOBS MOST OF MY LIFE TO GET WHERE I AM AT.
[00:46:09] I DIDN'T ASK NOBODY TO TAKE CARE OF ME OR GO TO SCHOOL AND RUN UP
[00:46:12] A BILL AND THEN SAY, WELL, I
[00:46:16] CANNOT PAY IT, LET THE GOVERNMENT PAY IT.
[00:46:19] I WAS DRAFTED OUT OF SCHOOL, WHO IS PAYING ME?
[00:46:22] I HAD TO SERVE IN THE MILITARY. PEOPLE NEED TO LEARN.
[00:46:26] YOU CAN COMPLAIN ABOUT THE WAR
[00:46:27] AND WHAT IS GOING ON RIGHT NOW
[00:46:31] BECAUSE 17 PEOPLE DIED IN FOUR
[00:46:33] MONTHS, THAT WAS 15 MINUTES IN VIETNAM.
[00:46:36] PEOPLE HAVE GOT TO GROW UP AND
[00:46:39] GET BACK TO WHERE WE WERE BEFORE THIS RUNS OUT.
[00:46:43] IT IS NOT OUR FIRST TIME WITH COMMUNISM.
[00:46:46] THEY HAD IT IN HOLLYWOOD YEARS
[00:46:48] BACK, THE 1920'S.
[00:46:51] PEOPLE LOST THEIR JOBS AND NEVER COULD RECOVER FROM IT.
[00:46:54] PEOPLE NEED TO JUST STOP WHINING
[00:46:56] AND START BEING AMERICANS. HOST: WE WILL END IT THERE FOR
[00:47:00] THIS SEGMENT.
[00:47:01] COMING UP IN ABOUT 45 MINUTES,
[00:47:04] SCHEDULED FOR 8:30 A.M. THIS MORNING, WE WILL PROVIDE YOU
