Every time you have a press conference, you say crime is down. | |
| The economy is booming. | ||
| Well, that's not true, but get your question, sir. | ||
| Across the street, we had a police officer on duty, the victim of a hit-and-run. | ||
| We have Michigan Avenue, the magnificent miles now referred to as the mile of fear. | ||
| The water tower place has thrown the keys back to the lender. | ||
| They say they don't want to be in Chicago anymore. | ||
| Real Chicagoans are asking me. | ||
| How could you possibly even consider running for re-election as mayor of the city of Chicago after all the harm you've caused? | ||
| Well, I disagree with you fundamentally, and I don't think I need to address and dignify your comments one second further. | ||
| *Dramatic Music* | ||
| Lightfoot! | ||
| That destroyed Lori Lightfoot, the mayor of Chicago. | ||
| Holy cannoli, is it so difficult to watch what's happening in Chicago. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, we're going to get into it on this show. | ||
| Boy, do I have a barn burner for the left. | ||
| I am so angry right now about how they are handling this nation, this such a corrupted political ideology. | ||
| These are a group of people who are not serious people. | ||
| They are not serious about the problems that concern this nation. | ||
| They are not serious about the issues at hand that could affect you in the day-to-day because they actually do not have anything of value to add. | ||
| They have a mind virus called leftism, called wokeism. | ||
| And it's not about improving anyone's life. | ||
| All you have to do is check back in the last hundred years of Stalinism, Nazism, and fascism, and communism across the world to see that leftism doesn't improve anyone's life. | ||
| They don't have a single thing to offer you to make your life better. | ||
| All they have are platitudes and teeny little... | ||
| Niche issues that they will scream and rage and devote their energies to while the world collapses around them. | ||
| Everything that a commie touches dies. | ||
| I'm gonna write a book with that title. | ||
| Everything the commies touch die. | ||
| Sometimes, literally. | ||
| Go ahead and read Gulag Archipelago about the former Soviet Union and the KGB. | ||
| The KGB, of course, the precursor to the government... | ||
| Disinformation Bureau that Joe Biden is pushing these commies. | ||
| What you end up with are mass graves. | ||
| And that's what Chicago ends up with. | ||
| And so we were shocked on this show to look on twitter.com this morning, pre-Elon Musk's purchase, and see that Lori Lightfoot herself was calling for violence. | ||
| That's correct. | ||
| The tweets are on your screen. | ||
| Lori Lightfoot said to my friends in the LGBTQ plus IA carat amp-a stand, upside down, a little squiggly line from the Spanish language community, the Supreme Court is coming for us next. | ||
| The moment has to be a call to arms. | ||
| Well, wait a second here. | ||
| A couple things. | ||
| Lori Lightfoot would be a... | ||
| World expert in the call to arms because Chicago is the number one gun crime city in America and maybe in the world. | ||
| I'm not sure. | ||
| Let's pull the stats. | ||
| Lori Lightfoot said we will not surrender our rights without a Fight! | ||
| A fight to victory! | ||
| What does she mean? | ||
| A couple things here. | ||
| Let's unpack it. | ||
| One, this is just scaremongering. | ||
| This is attempting to say that what they're going to do is erode LGBTQ +, gay rights, gay marriage in this ruling overturning Roe v. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wade. | |
| Of course, the ruling itself states that it will not touch... | ||
| Obergefell. | ||
| I can't pronounce the name. | ||
| The Supreme Court ruling where you got gay marriage. | ||
| Obergefell. | ||
| Obergefell. | ||
| Should work on that one. | ||
| The Supreme Court... | ||
| Alito's ruling says that they're not going to be using this precedent in order to revisit other rulings, that this is about Roe v. | ||
| Wade. | ||
| But here you have to, you can't win the abortion argument, right? | ||
| So you can't, they can't win on the merits of the abortion argument. | ||
| So they have to do this. | ||
| Lori Lightfoot is herself a lesbian, and she is in a, she's been in a longstanding gay relationship there in Chicago. | ||
| We don't care! | ||
| Do what you want to do, man! | ||
| That's not... | ||
| On us. | ||
| We don't care. | ||
| Live your life. | ||
| But what I'm trying to, I mean, I guess effectively prove here is that they can't win. | ||
| They can't win on the abortion argument alone. | ||
| And so they're going to have to go into the various further realms of the political world to try and create enough chaos and try and create enough fear and fear monger over this decision. | ||
| That they can get enough people on board to start activating their voters. | ||
| As you've seen, people are not activated to vote by this issue. | ||
| They may be upset, as recent polling suggests, but they are not going to show up at the polls because the vast majority of Americans don't need abortion. | ||
| And abortion isn't something that the vast majority of Americans are going to be motivated by. | ||
| They're far more motivated by gas prices and by food prices and by home prices and by inflation and by illegal immigration and the threat of nuclear war with Russia than they are. | ||
| About abortion. | ||
| And so I believe that this is going to be a huge loser for Democrats, but it's not stopping. | ||
| It's not stopping Lori Lightfoot from using this opportunity to go out and to fearmonger and to call for arms. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| This is the kind of language that got people in front of the January 6th commission, by the way. | ||
| This is the kind of language that would bring someone like... | ||
| Donald Trump or Dan Scavino or a Trump aide into the January 6th commission language like this. | ||
| A call to arms? | ||
| Fight until you get victory? | ||
| These are exactly the kind of comments that, again, got people in huge trouble on January 6th. | ||
| They shouldn't get anyone in trouble because these are comments that... | ||
| I don't believe, intend violence. | ||
| But nonetheless, if you've seen on the modern-day left that the violence is there and this is a dog whistle to the feral Antifa activists to take to the streets. | ||
| Lori Lightfoot is engaging the BLM activists, the rioters, to say, you have carte blanche to go riot again. | ||
| We are ready and prepared to support you. | ||
| That is what this is all about. | ||
| And that is what these comments are all about. | ||
| And Lori Lightfoot... | ||
| Should be careful, because Lori Lightfoot herself knows a little thing about a little thing. | ||
| During the COVID lockdowns, Lori Lightfoot, boy, did she ever know how to drop the hammer on the worst criminals in America. | ||
| Of course, Lori Lightfoot wouldn't drop the hammer on the BLM rioters torching Michigan Avenue and making it unsafe for my family to ever travel to Chicago again. | ||
| I spoke about it with my wife. | ||
| We're never going back to Chicago. | ||
| We'll never, ever go back on a family trip to Chicago. | ||
| We have two kids under two. | ||
| No possible way. | ||
| Lori Lightfoot wouldn't bring to bear the Chicago PD on the... | ||
| Record-setting homicides in the street and gun violence. | ||
| She wouldn't bring to bear the Chicago PD in order to halt the rioters, in order to halt the mass protests, the small children who were getting shot. | ||
| She brought the Chicago PD full force and weight to bear on two things. | ||
| One, Jesse Smollett's fake hoax, hate crime hoax, bleaching himself and putting a noose around his neck. | ||
| Jessie Smollett found guilty and spent a little bit of time in jail for that one. | ||
| Might spend more time in jail. | ||
| We hope so. | ||
| And then number two, on people throwing parties during the COVID lockdown. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| The same COVID lockdown that Lori Lightfoot went and got her hair did during the mayor went to the streets and said, if you throw a party, if you dare throw a party during my lockdown, we will arrest you. | ||
| And we... | ||
| We'll take you to jail. | ||
| Here's Lori Lightfooting. | ||
| Lori Lightfooting all over this. | ||
| Lori Lightfooting. | ||
| Go. | ||
| Now I've directed Superintendent Brown to order all police districts to give special attention to these parties. | ||
| And this is how it's going to be. | ||
| We will shut you down. | ||
| We will cite you. | ||
| And if we need to, we will arrest you. | ||
| And we will take you to jail. | ||
| Period. | ||
| There should be nothing unambiguous about that. | ||
| Don't make us treat you like a criminal. | ||
| But if you act like a criminal and you violate the law and you refuse to do what is necessary to save lives in the city in the middle of a pandemic, we will take you to jail, period. | ||
| So this is, I think, the ultimate point, is that the left and the agents of wokeism are always fixated on the little social... | ||
| Social, political, meaningless fronts, right? | ||
| So Lori Lightfoot, people are getting slaughtered in her city. | ||
| Violence is up, looting, mobs. | ||
| But the only time she really takes a stand is for her little lockdown. | ||
| The only time she goes out into the street and threatens jail to anyone is for her little tyrant fiefdom lockdown. | ||
| She never speaks like that about gun violence in her city. | ||
| She never speaks like that about gang violence. | ||
| She never talks to looters like that. | ||
| She wouldn't dare. | ||
| She wouldn't dare. | ||
| Because those people give power to the left. | ||
| Those people took power away from Donald Trump. | ||
| She only speaks in those terms when it reinforces her power. | ||
| But the thing is that that game eventually comes to the end of its rope. | ||
| People get fed up with it, and people are doing that right now. | ||
| Lori Lightfoot has like... | ||
| Three dozen people running against her for mayor of Chicago, and we don't think she'll be mayor for much longer. | ||
| According to Twitter's rules and policies, Lightfoot... | ||
| Tweet violates the violence category, which according to the platform, you may not threaten violence against an individual or group of people. | ||
| We also prohibit the glorification of violence. | ||
| Learn more about our violence threat and glorification violence policies. | ||
| That's from Twitter.com. | ||
| So is Elon Musk's new Twitter platform going to be silencing or banning Lori Lightfoot for giving a call to arms, which is a call for people to take to the street? | ||
| Dog whistle for the left agitators to take to the street. | ||
| Are they going to be enforcing that against Lori Lightfoot? | ||
| We've already seen the call to arms in the mobs and protesters appearing at Justice Kavanaugh's house, Justice Alito's house, and Justice Roberts' house over the last few days. | ||
| The left, however, sadly has normalized violence over the past few years with absolutely zero repercussions. | ||
| And even though the left's calls for violence often end in literal violence, nothing ever seems to happen. | ||
| They don't get deplatformed. | ||
| They don't get kicked off of sites. | ||
| They get to normalize it. | ||
| And that is because anything is allowed in service of their own power. | ||
| Here is Elizabeth Warren, just a few days ago, screaming and howling at the moon. | ||
| In some type of weird interpretive dance in front of the Supreme Court, probably because she got her Ancestry.com 23andMe results back and found that she was exactly 0% Cherokee. | ||
| A Jeep Cherokee has more Cherokee in it than Elizabeth Warren. | ||
| Here's Elizabeth Warren losing her damn mind in public. | ||
|
unidentified
|
...nomination of what Republicans have been fighting for, angling for, for decades now, and we are going to fight them. | |
| I am angry because of who will pay the price for. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Okay, so Elizabeth Warren sitting there screaming and how can you like, can you interpret exactly what she said? | ||
| Why are they always shaking? | ||
| By the way, they're always shaking. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They're always sitting, they're always like very shaky and glitchy. | |
| Mad. | ||
| Angry people. | ||
| Mad, angry people. | ||
| And who can forget Maxine Waters' number one call to surround members of an administration and to threaten them whenever they are in public. | ||
| Go. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And if you see anybody from that cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd. | |
| And you push back on them. | ||
| And you tell them they're not welcome anymore, anywhere. | ||
| Disgusting behavior. | ||
| Again, if anyone on the right did such a thing or said such a thing, they'd be in prison right now. | ||
| And you know it. | ||
| Madonna called for blowing up the White House the day after Donald Trump was inaugurated. | ||
| Remember this? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes, I have thought an awful lot about blowing up the White House. | |
| Hmm. | ||
| Well, well, well. | ||
| I wonder what would happen, ladies and gentlemen, if Madison Cawthorn or Marjorie Taylor Greene or Lauren Boebert or somebody talked about blowing up the White House. | ||
| And there was a different party in the White House. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| When a Republican's in power, all things in service of power. | ||
| That's why they say rest in power. | ||
| They don't want peace. | ||
| They want power. | ||
| And they want control over your life. | ||
| And that is made so evident by this... | ||
| Famous relic, Snoop Dogg, old video from a couple years ago where he literally fakes an assassination inside of the video. | ||
| Watch this. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's rapper Snoop Dogg pulling the trigger on a toy gun aimed at a clown dressed as President Donald Trump. | |
| Got it. | ||
| Okay, got it. | ||
| Thanks, thanks. | ||
| Is this the rulebook now? | ||
| So this is the rulebook. | ||
| The left knows exactly what they're doing here. | ||
| They know precisely the pressure that they're bringing to bear on our society. | ||
| They are wishing to show you that they are in control. | ||
| That they can use their own militarized agents throughout the streets and terrorize you. | ||
| But if you dare lift a finger against them, as Donald Trump did at the White House, right? | ||
| You remember that the leftist mob attacked the White House, burned down buildings on the White House, hospitalized multiple members of the Secret Service and the White House police. | ||
| And yet it was Donald Trump and Mark Milley who had to apologize for clearing those leftists out. | ||
| I distinctly remember leaving the White House grounds after the RNC speech, Donald Trump's RNC speech, at the end of the RNC convention, which was held digitally, but he did a large outdoor White House speech. | ||
| Donald Trump... | ||
| Had this speech and he and his family got to go back inside the confines of the White House. | ||
| The rest of us had to walk outside to multiple mobs coming after us in the streets. | ||
| Rand Paul was a few feet away from me getting attacked. | ||
| You don't hear anything about it. | ||
| You hear nothing about it. | ||
| It's completely memory hold. | ||
| It's completely memory hold. | ||
| There's not a commission that has been brought to bear on the leftist militantism. | ||
| There's not a group of people who are studying it or attempting to talk about it. | ||
| No. | ||
| Nobody brings it up. | ||
| No one discusses it. | ||
| Because it's all in pursuit of their own power. | ||
| This is a power play, ladies and gentlemen, and it's why the disgusting displays at Supreme Court Justice's house are not even condemned by our own White House. | ||
| The White House yesterday said that vandalism of Catholic churches and pro-life centers were unacceptable, but we understand the passion. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| We understand. | ||
| People are mad, you see? | ||
| It's the same. | ||
| Get ready for George Floyd 2.0. | ||
| You're getting George Floyd 2.0 this summer. | ||
| People are upset. | ||
| And, you know, we gotta let them punch their... | ||
| Kickboxing bags and have their margaritas and burn down a couple stores. | ||
| Cause a couple billion dollars worth of damage. | ||
| We just gotta let them, we just gotta let the anger out. | ||
| We just gotta let these people have what they need and everything will be fine. | ||
| Remember, ladies and gentlemen, if this was in service to the right, if this was taking power away from the left, boy, you know that there would be a new... | ||
| Warren Commission. | ||
| You know that you would have a new January 6th commission every single day if it was the right doing this. | ||
| And they continue to push the lie that white supremacy is indeed the number one threat to America, as you can watch on your screen right now the footage of firebombings happening inside of pro-life centers around the nation. | ||
| Jen Psaki yesterday being asked about the vandalism inside of Catholic churches, pro-life centers, and attacks on Christians. | ||
| Jen Psaki not condemning it. | ||
| Yep, that's right. | ||
| Not condemning attacks on Christians and churches and Supreme Court justices. | ||
| This is the party of Return to norms. | ||
| This is the party of the return to civility and decency. | ||
| Go ahead and check out Jen Psaki and her pathetic, maybe final appearance as White House Press Secretary. | ||
| We'll see. | ||
|
unidentified
|
There's a law in Virginia that actually prohibits protests outside private residence, even when done peacefully. | |
| So I'm wondering if any sort of demonstrations outside of private homes might run up all of that law and other laws like it. | ||
| We're certainly not suggesting anyone break any laws. | ||
| I would note that the President's view has long been, and I tweeted this earlier this morning, and repeated and made a number of these comments last week as well, that violence, threats, and intimidation have no place in political discourse. | ||
| Yes, we are a country that promotes democracy, and we certainly allow for peaceful protest in a range of places in the country. | ||
| None of it should violate the law. | ||
| No one is suggesting that. | ||
| And it should never resort to violence, to threats, to intimidation in any way, shape, or form. | ||
| But that is what our position is, and the president's position is... | ||
| Oh, okay. | ||
| So it's understandable, right? | ||
| It's understandable that they're firebombing pro-life centers. | ||
| It's understandable that they're threatening Supreme Court justices and their families. | ||
| It's just understandable. | ||
| It's always... | ||
| And forever going to be in service of their own power. | ||
| Any crime inside of a fascist state is admissible and is allowed as long as it serves the power of the people in charge. | ||
| You see what they do to grannies who wandered through and took selfies inside of the Capitol? | ||
| Hapless grannies wandered through the Capitol when the doors were opened unto them. | ||
| Took a selfie, and those grannies have spent the last nine months, ten months in prison without bail, wandering through the Capitol. | ||
| But you can go ahead and burn down a liquor store, kill someone in the streets, and hey, we're going to call it the summer of love. | ||
| You can set up an entire nation inside of a large city in America, call it Chaz, Commit murders inside of it. | ||
| And we're going to say, hey, listen, these are just people practicing their First Amendment rights. | ||
| You can attack the White House and torch buildings inside and on the White House ground. | ||
| I watched it with my own two eyeballs. | ||
| And attack the White, physically mob the White House with the president inside. | ||
| And then you'll get the Secretary of Defense, the Joint Chiefs of Staff apologizing to you, which is what Mark Milley, the scum, did. | ||
| Leftism destroys everything it touches, and I think the point is to make people enraged. | ||
| The point is to gaslight us. | ||
| The ultimate push here is just to gaslight us into saying, like, the system is so rigged. | ||
| The system is so broken. | ||
| That we need a new system. | ||
| And that's what I truly believe. | ||
| I truly believe we do need a new system. | ||
| And we need to bring this old, diseased system down. | ||
| There does absolutely need to be a reckoning of leftist violence. | ||
| And that is, there needs to be with a clear voice and somebody inside of the federal halls of power. | ||
| Standing in front of a screen and showing every single time that a leftist agitator went out and burned and murdered and killed and intimidated, whether it be a Supreme Court justice or a business store owner, and then we need a full 180 shift in federal law enforcement to state definitively that no, actually, it is not white supremacy. | ||
| It is leftist supremacy. | ||
| It is fascistic leftists who are attempting to burn this country to the ground. | ||
| And they are the groups that we wish to infiltrate. | ||
| And they are the people who are the largest threat to this country. | ||
| We need a set, a Republican Party with a set of balls and an iron spine to say it. | ||
| It needs to be stated. | ||
| And until we can diagnose the problem, the true root... | ||
| Then we will never, ever cure ourselves of this. | ||
| It needs to be stated in enough of the gaslighting. | ||
| Man, it is frustrating to watch Jen Psaki yesterday essentially apologize. | ||
| Apologize. | ||
| Be an apologist for mobs showing up at Supreme Court Justices' homes. | ||
| The American people see you. | ||
| The American people see you. | ||
| You and Lori Lightfoot and the whole rest of them. | ||
| They're not buying it anymore. | ||
| Psaki continued to dodge questions about whether the president opposed pro-abortion activists surrounding the homes of Supreme Court justices. | ||
| This shouldn't be hard. | ||
| Joe Biden's been in the Senate for a billion years. | ||
| You're not supposed to have people surrounding justices' homes. | ||
| These are not tough questions or calls. | ||
| You can just straight up say, I disagree with all violence and I am in support of federal law, which says you're not allowed to do this. | ||
| But of course, they can't say that. | ||
| Because the protests are what? | ||
| Giving them power. | ||
| The protests are, what? | ||
| Providing them political cover in an era where they have nothing to run on. | ||
| So, of course, just like George Floyd, the protests are going to be fanned. | ||
| Do you remember when all the doctors came out and said that racism is more dangerous than COVID and so everyone should take to the streets? | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, these are not serious people. | ||
| They're not serious people. | ||
| She acknowledged that the protests took place in a range of places and called for protests to be peaceful. | ||
| We're not here to give tactical advice to protesters, she added. | ||
| Where's Glenn Youngkin, by the way? | ||
| Where's Glenn Youngkin, governor of Virginia? | ||
| Many of these justices, most of them live in Virginia, according to what we've seen. | ||
| And so where is the Virginia State Police? | ||
| Where are they protecting people inside of the state of Virginia? | ||
| This needs to happen. | ||
| Glenn Youngkin, you're one of the Republicans who needs to grow a spine here. | ||
| No more of this. | ||
| No more of this. | ||
| I mean, you're going to make a great case for a law and order candidate in 2024, but ladies and gentlemen, there is going to be a pushback here. | ||
| People are not going to stand for the feral leftist mobs any longer. | ||
| It's going to get dangerous. | ||
| It's going to get bad. | ||
| And we're going to tell the truth, especially on this channel. | ||
| Jen Psaki says that Biden can be bipartisan after calling MAGA the most extreme group in recent U.S. history. | ||
| Yep, yep, yep. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| Jen Psaki going in after Ultra MAGA. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| Saying Ultra MAGA as though it's going to hurt our feelings. | ||
| Take it away, Jen Psaki. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you. | |
| The president and you have talked about the MAGA crowd or the ultra MAGA. | ||
| How does that jive with his desire to be the bipartisan guy? | ||
| Well, the president's view is you can do both. | ||
| He believes that there is work we can continue to do together. | ||
| We're actively advocating for. | ||
| He was out traveling just last Friday on the Bipartisan Innovation Act. | ||
| We believe that needs to move forward. | ||
| It should move forward. | ||
| And that can build on the nearly 80 bills that we signed into law last year that are bipartisan. | ||
| But he's also not going to stand by and not call out what he sees as ultra-MAGA behavior, ultra-MAGA policies that are out of Do you think it's going to hurt | ||
| our feelings to call us ultra-MAGA? | ||
| Do you think that's going to be a deterrent? | ||
| Is that something that's going to hurt our feelings? | ||
| No, it will not. | ||
| Ultra MAGA, ladies and gentlemen, Donald Trump got 75 million votes in the election. | ||
| He was one of the few presidents who actually gained votes for his second term as his re-election campaigns. | ||
| Presidents normally taper off. | ||
| Donald Trump can still pack stadiums. | ||
| We were with Donald Trump at the White House this last week watching the 2000 Mules premiere. | ||
| What a shocking video. | ||
| It's enraging patriots around the nation. | ||
| Republicans need to get stronger. | ||
| They need to be stronger fighters. | ||
| They need to get serious. | ||
| And ladies and gentlemen, the MAGA crowd, the Make American Great a Green crowd, I think is going to be the largest, broadest... | ||
| Bipartisan coalition in American history. | ||
| These people don't understand what they're playing with here. | ||
| They don't understand the stick of dynamite that they're messing with. | ||
| They don't know what they're pushing. | ||
| They don't know what they're creating. | ||
| You can look at how Democrats have eroded by like 50% their support in the black community. | ||
| You can watch how Democrats have seen the complete and utter cratering, I mean, through the center of the earth, of Latino support. | ||
| They are creating, for Republicans and for a party that is still, and even Mitt Romney admits this, wholly controlled by Donald Trump, they are creating the largest bipartisan, biracial, diverse coalition of people to vote against them and their stupid policies. | ||
| And the gaslighting cannot continue. | ||
| We showed you yesterday footage of a Catholic church being attacked in the middle of mass. | ||
| A Catholic church in the middle of Los Angeles. | ||
| Judging by the video, the vast majority of parishioners there were Latino. | ||
| And do you think that's the way you're going to win Latino votes? | ||
| By attacking them during mass and screaming about infanticide in their faces? | ||
| No. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| And you're not going to attack them by calling them Ultra Maga. | ||
| And you're not going to attack them by being Lori Lightfoot and saying that it's a call to arms for the LGBTQ plus community. | ||
| People aren't buying it anymore. | ||
| They're not going to buy the gaslighting. | ||
| And when the activists of the left are activated through these dog whistles, Jen Psaki essentially advocating on behalf of the rioters, Lori Lightfoot pushing the rioters in a call to arms, saying that they need to fight, and then they do fight, people are going to punish the Democrat Party for this. | ||
| People don't want these hapless, joyless, childless, loveless, Freaks in their lives rampaging through their streets, hurting their businesses. | ||
| We do actually want peace. | ||
| And the number one way to get peace is to remove power from the Democrat Party, the far left, and the woke. | ||
| And you are starting to see the Great Awakening happening in real time. | ||
| In Texas, ladies and gentlemen, there were... | ||
| Massive school board elections. | ||
| And we are proud to report that conservative candidates in Texas won massively. | ||
| Conservatives who promised to stop racism in schools win Texas school boards across the state. | ||
| This according to the Federalist. | ||
| Conservative candidates won a bunch of closely watched school board elections in Texas on Saturday. | ||
| One of the higher profile losses was suffered by Jim Rice, a member of the Fort Bend Independent School District since 2010. | ||
| So he's been in office for over a decade and he lost. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Because he wouldn't. | ||
| Disavow critical race theory. | ||
| Get ready. | ||
| It's the poison pill, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| And they brought it upon themselves. | ||
| He is also the immediate past president of the Texas Association of School Board. | ||
| Very powerful position. | ||
| Rice was beaten by Rick Garcia, small business owner, who was a 7th grade Texas history teacher in the district. | ||
| Garcia will be joined on the board by David Hamilton, who ran for an open seat. | ||
| Both winners were backed by the Republican Party. | ||
| Fort Bend SDI serves around 80,000 students, more than 10,000 staff in Houston. | ||
| There are 1,200 public school districts in Texas, about 5.4 million students, massive state of Texas, and... | ||
| 400,000 instructional staff. | ||
| Most school districts and staff in the nation are only second to California. | ||
| So again, a massive school system in Texas. | ||
| You should not disregard the fact that patriots and anti-critical race theory Republicans are winning school board seats. | ||
| This past Saturday, there were a number of outstanding victories for parents across Texas. | ||
| The election was a referendum on radical policies and indoctrination that have taken place in the classrooms across the state. | ||
| Parents are taking back control and getting schools back to the basics, said Christopher Zook, who runs Freedom Foundation of Texas. | ||
| In Tarrant County, a school board candidate backed by three conservative PACs were doing very well. | ||
| One group spending $500,000 to support candidates in four school districts in the Fort Worth suburbs. | ||
| Awesome! | ||
| This is Republicans fighting back, getting involved in their school races. | ||
| I get a lot of questions. | ||
| What can we do? | ||
| Run. | ||
| You can run. | ||
| You can run for your local school board. | ||
| The way federalism works is that your school board member and your mayor and your county council should be more powerful than the federal government. | ||
| You should have more concern about the way that your city and municipality are locally run than your state level and your federal level. | ||
| Because these are the people that should have the most effect on your lives and the direct effect on your children's lives. | ||
| Things are completely out of whack with the federal government trying to control everything in our lives. | ||
| That can be put and set back with the right candidate and the right person. | ||
| We believe we'll get that in 2024. | ||
| But till then... | ||
| These are very positive signs. | ||
| This election result caught the attention of the Republican Texas Governor Greg Abbott, who tweeted, Good. | ||
| Good. | ||
| Campaigning for re-election, Abbott called the For a Parents Bill of Rights in January, along with expanding families access to course material, preventing the collection of personal information unless required. | ||
| Good. | ||
| In the issue, largely powered by the Republican governor of Virginia, Glenn Youngkin's upset victory in November, and by Ron DeSantis passing the parental rights and education bill right here in Florida. | ||
| Florida, the paradise land for parents. | ||
| It truly is. | ||
| These election results were not happenstance, says Christopher Zook. | ||
| He said that there were a culmination of years of sunlight that has been shown into radical ideologies being taught in classrooms across Texas. | ||
| Parents spoke up in one loud voice and they do not want radical indoctrination in our schools. | ||
| Good! | ||
| Yes, that's right. | ||
| The reason that they're coming after the schools is that they know that young kids will absorb the garbage that they push on them when they are inside of a young age. | ||
| There's a very special little window where your worldview is formed. | ||
| That window is typically taken over by parents and allows us, the parents, the breeders, In society, to be able to replicate and ensure the survival of our worldview. | ||
| The left are often childless, sad, feral people, and so they don't have the capacity to have offspring that they can continue their sick worldview. | ||
| I don't really care. | ||
| If you want to have kids, you want to teach them what you want, that's on you. | ||
| But seriously, oftentimes, the left doesn't have the selfless... | ||
| Nature and the positive relationships to even have children. | ||
| And so they wish to take our children. | ||
| That's what this entire push is. | ||
| And their ideology is so sick. | ||
| What they touch, the wokeness, it destroys everything so thoroughly that they have to go after our kids. | ||
| It's not good enough to win inside of an open arena of ideas because everyone rejects wokeness when they're handed it. | ||
| Everybody rejects. | ||
| The tenets of wokeness when you see the results on the streets of Chicago or when you see the results with Jen Psaki. | ||
| Nobody wants to live that life. | ||
| Nobody wants to be a liar. | ||
| Nobody wants to be mobbed as they head out to the store. | ||
| Nobody wants the results of Joe Biden's presidency. | ||
| So they can't win on the merits, and so they have to win by cheating. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, this is exactly the purpose. | ||
| Of the fight for our school boards. | ||
| And it is so wonderful to be seeing victories across the nation. | ||
| It's not just Texas. | ||
| Victories and school boards have been happening in Illinois, Iowa, in Wisconsin, of course in Florida, and all across this nation. | ||
| People are getting out. | ||
| And people are getting active. | ||
| And it's been wonderful, wonderful to see. | ||
| The revolution is at hand, and we are very happy to be broadcasting it here on this show. | ||
| My name is Benny Johnson. | ||
| This has been The Benny Show. | ||
| We will be broadcasting The Revolution live because we have our priorities correct. | ||
| God, family, and country. | ||
| That's what we care the most about on this show. | ||
| We have our correct priorities, and so we will care about the things that you demand that we care about. | ||
| We will care about the things that actually appeal to your life, to the lives of your children, and to the lives of all sane people in this country. | ||
| We will continue to doggedly chase after these insane stories and shame these people because they deserve it. | ||
| And we will call for a better America. | ||
| The ripping down of the diseased old temple and the brokenness of this country and the building up of something new and beautiful that we can all do here. | ||
| Because we were born free men and women and we intend to stay that way. | ||
| Thank you also very much for watching. |
