| This is what you're fighting for. | ||
| I mean, every day you're out there. | ||
| What they're doing is blowing people off. | ||
| If you continue to look the other way and shut up, then the oppressors, the authoritarians, get total control and total power. | ||
| Because this is just like in Arizona. | ||
| This is just like in Georgia. | ||
| It's another element that backs them into a corner and shows their lies and misrepresentations. | ||

This is why this audience is going to have to get engaged. | |
| As we've told you, this is the fight. | ||

All this nonsense, all this spin, they can't handle the truth. | |
| War Room Battleground. | ||
| Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| I think at this point, you know, the policies that are, you know, having a real impact on ensuring that we have security and order at our border are policies that will continue. | ||
| Do you think, Victoria, the Harris campaign needs to have a specific answer on what Harris policy is at the border? | ||
| The humanitarian crisis that we have been living through for years now? | ||
| So, you know, immigration policy is something that you don't want to get into the weeds about. | ||
| I mean, really here, it's about solving a problem that has been broken for over 30 years. | ||
| And I think that she needs to be very clear and very resonant on that. | ||
| How that is achieved is something that she can address, you know, once after getting into the White House, because it's something that she can't do single-handedly or any executive can do single-handedly. | ||
| So I think laying out a firm and clear line and kicking back that notion that she was or is soft on the border is very, very important. | ||
| And then the devil's in the details and can be hashed out later. | ||
| So I think for a general audience is draw that line in the sand. | ||
| Yeah, Victoria. | ||
| But then again, the fact that she was early on tasked by President Biden to be behind a study of what the root causes of migration are. | ||
| And do you get it? | ||
| I certainly get a sense that that hasn't been something that she nor the president have been very forthcoming about. | ||
| What is it that we have learned about the root causes of migration and how can that lesson be instituted? | ||
| I mean, immigration from time immemorial is push and pull what's happening in the home country. | ||
| So I think that is 50% of the equation. | ||
| And I think you mentioned that, she references that. | ||
| But given the optics of immigration today, and given the humanitarian crisis that we're seeing at the border, I think you have to lead a little bit heavier with understanding the border and the needs of folks as they're looking at our southern border. | ||
| Well, thanks, but we need to look beyond the short term and the causes leading to that. | ||
| And I think that's something where the policy wonks like me really dig into, but also understanding what day-to-day Americans are seeing on their TV screens. | ||
| Oh boy, that was a doozy. | ||
| That was not an SNL skit. | ||
| That was actually Kamala Harris's, I guess, the person leading up her campaign. | ||
| This is insane. | ||
| Well, I want to welcome everybody to the War Room. | ||
| Of course, we all wish that Steve Bannon were here. | ||
| But we have to be his voice for the next several months, and we wish we had his voice right now. | ||
| I'm happy to be filling in today and being with my favorite people, the posse, the war room posse. | ||
| So we've got a busy show planned for today, and we're going to kick it off with someone who knows quite a bit about immigration. | ||
| Before we get to him, I want to make a couple of points about what we just heard. | ||
| Immigration, she said, has been broken for 30 years. | ||
| We've got to separate out immigration from a border crisis that was created and self-inflicted wound on America by Joe and Kamala. | ||
| These are two separate issues, two separate items, and I want to talk to our next guest about that. | ||
| Also, when she said, let's not get into the weeds on immigration and the border. | ||
| Actually, the American people do want to get into the weeds. | ||
| They want to pull the weeds. | ||
| They want to rid the border of this problem, this self-inflicted crisis that we didn't have to have, that was started on day one of Joe Biden's weekend at Bernie administration. | ||
| So there's a lot to kind of dig through. | ||
| We know that what they're basically saying there is they want to continue along. | ||
| They love what's happening at the border, and Kamala plans four more years of it. | ||
| Our border czar, who's now acting like she's never been the border czar, wants four more years of this absolute mayhem on the border. | ||
| I want to bring Todd Bensimon in, and he's with the Center of Immigration Studies. | ||
| Todd, did you hear that? | ||
| Are you just kind of rolling your eyes thinking, are these people that clueless or are they just trying to push this false narrative and convince the people of America that everything's peachy keen on the border? | ||
| Well, first of all, I just want to go to whether she is the Border Czar and why we're having a big conversation about, you know, parsing what her title was. | ||
| They're obviously trying to separate her from the catastrophe politically so that they can't saddle her with it during the campaign by saying there is no technical government title called Border Czar for what she did. | ||
| But that is irrelevant. | ||
| She was in charge of the Biden administration's central strategy, which was to address what they call root causes in three countries, Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras. | ||
| We're going to nation build those countries back up so nobody wants to come. | ||
| That was that's the central thrust. | ||
| of the entire Biden administration's border policy, his main thing she was in charge of. | ||
| She even came out during afterwards, you know, boasting, look, I got some companies to go down there. | ||
| We're going to we're addressing these root problems. | ||
| The fact of the matter is, though, that two million more Salvadorans, Guatemalans, And Hondurans cross the southern border after she became the border czar, or the person in charge, the root causes-in-chief, whatever you want to call it. | ||
| I don't care what you call it. | ||
| Todd, I think we know the root cause. | ||
| The root cause is Joe Biden and his policy that he started on day one, which was to tear apart | ||
| an incredibly effective border policy and basically with a wink and a nod, welcome the world in. | ||
| And that's exactly what they did. | ||
| So we don't need to analyze the root cause. The root cause is Joe Biden's failure and Kamala | ||
| Harris's failure. And then the fact that we've got people in Congress like my opponent, Ruben Gallego, | ||
| who's rubber stamped every single thing they want, who said the border wall is stupid. | ||
| And then we watched as they took hundreds of millions of dollars of materials that the | ||
| taxpayers, the citizens of this country paid for because we want to have a border wall, | ||
| and they sold it off for pennies on the dollar. | ||
| From what I heard in that clip we just had is Kamala Harris's plan going forward is to do the exact same thing. | ||
| And when they talk about humanitarian crisis, they've inflicted a humanitarian crisis on the people of this country. | ||
| You know, I consider a humanitarian crisis more than 100,000 Americans dying every year because of fentanyl poisoning. | ||
| I just talked to a mother last night whose 17-year-old son is gone. | ||
| He's never coming back. | ||
| We don't know what his future looks like. | ||
| We don't know what he would have accomplished because he took a pill that was laced with fentanyl. | ||
| So this is a crisis, a humanitarian crisis, and we need to start having some compassion for the American people who are suffering. | ||
| You're 100% right. | ||
| This was policy driven. | ||
| It was on purpose. | ||
| They messaged during the campaign exactly what they were going to do. | ||
| And as somebody who has spent, you know, thousands of hours on the ground with the immigrants, interviewing them for three and a half years straight, I can tell you that they heard the message loud and clear, like a siren call, and came in answer to it. | ||
| They will all tell you. | ||
| You don't even have to. | ||
| It's not a big secret. | ||
| I've got them quoted. | ||
| They're quoted everywhere. | ||
| We came because the Biden administration was letting us in. | ||
| Period. | ||
| Root causes are not 50% of the problem. | ||
| Letting them all in is 100% of the problem if you listen to the immigrants. | ||
| And I give them full credibility. | ||
| I think that they're not lying to me. | ||
| in huge numbers like that. | ||
| And as long as the Biden, or I'm sorry, the Harris campaign is going to be claiming | ||
| that we're not changing anything, you're going to have 10 million more people come in | ||
| in another four years. | ||
| Is everybody good with that? | ||
| Is that really how the American people wanna vote? | ||
| Because that's at stake. | ||
| I don't think so. | ||
| Not here in Arizona and nowhere across the country. | ||
| Nobody is satisfied. | ||
| And you know they're not satisfied because we can see how the Kamala Harris folks are trying to scrub the internet of anything saying that she was the border czar. | ||
| So they're already embarrassed by her policy and this political article today where they're trying to actually make her and Biden look like heroes for deporting more immigrants who are here illegally than President Trump. | ||
| But you have to look at how many people they allowed in. | ||
| Can you kind of lay that out and explain why that is? | ||
| Right, you have to read about halfway through the political story to find the answer, which is that they admit themselves, well, expulsions were the majority of these, not deportations. | ||
| So they undercut their whole story immediately. | ||
| You know, not immediately, about halfway through. | ||
| Because Title 42, the pandemic expulsion rule, was in place for a far shorter time under the Trump administration than it was before Biden killed it out. | ||
| It took about two and a half, three years. | ||
| So these were expulsions of people that turned right around and came back again and then again and then again until they got through. | ||
| Uh, the, the number of people that entered that were allowed to enter the country is the only number that matters here. | ||
| And that is about 10 million people got into the country, uh, including a couple of million gotaways. | ||
| Uh, nowhere near that number have been allowed to enter the country ever in the history of the Republic. | ||
| Certainly not under Trump, uh, or under anyone. | ||
| Even if you were combined the last 10 administrations, you didn't have this many people allowed to enter the country and they're still pouring in now. | ||
| In other ways, they created these lawful pathways. | ||
| CBP won a phone app. | ||
| 500,000 people they let in on this phone app. | ||
| They're flying people in directly from foreign airports into 45 American airports. | ||
| 500,000 of those, a million altogether. | ||
| They're handing out refugee passes Now, tens of thousands to people that they've never given refugee status to before. | ||
| I'll have a piece out tomorrow at cis.org all about that. | ||
| Safe mobility centers, they call it. | ||
| So really, it's multi-pronged entries from all different ways, all different pathways. | ||
| Well, it was interesting. | ||
| In one of the articles today, it said that Kamala Harris is getting all, picking up all kinds of endorsements from some very liberal mayors in some small towns near the border here in Arizona. | ||
| They're trying to claim that, wow, that shows that they like what she's doing on the border. | ||
| If you go to these small towns and talk to the people who live there, they don't approve of any of it. | ||
| Even in the liberal towns, they, They realize that people are coming in from 170 different nations. | ||
| They're not speaking the language. | ||
| They're just being let out on the streets, causing car crashes and crime. | ||
| And the people aren't for this. | ||
| These mayors may be for it. | ||
| There's always a lot of money and strings attached that come with This kind of policy that the Democrats push and hype. | ||
| They never want to go to the root cause. | ||
| The root cause is we have a wide open border and we're allowing people in. | ||
| And we could stop that with the border wall and policies where we stop letting people in. | ||
| But the Democrats like the problem because they like to pour billions of dollars into all the symptoms. | ||
| And oftentimes you're going to get city officials and town officials who like being on the receiving end. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I like the way you put that. | |
| One thing I'd like to point out, though, is that the number of illegal crossings are down right now, and the reason is because the election is on the horizon and the polls are so terrible on this problem that You know, you always hear Biden say, you know, if only the Republicans hadn't stood in the way of this piece of legislation, I need this legislation. | ||
| No, they didn't. | ||
| They just had to have Mexico shut it down on their end. | ||
| That's what Trump did. | ||
| So they took a playbook out of Trump's, you know, page out of Trump's playbook, and they've got the Mexicans really kind of holding the line down there so that the numbers drop. | ||
| But let me tell you something, as of November 6th, If Harris wins, the Mexicans are off the hook, and that thing is going to open wide. | ||
| Every spigot, all along the CBP One app, the flights, everything is going to go wide open. | ||
| And it's going to stay that way for four years. | ||
| There's a lot at stake with this. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Lay that out. | ||
| That's important for the posse to hear again. | ||
| Obviously, they're saying they want to continue along, but you're saying, no, they're not just going to continue along this path, which is total destruction, frankly. | ||
| It's going to get even worse. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| You know, what they did was they cut a deal. | ||
| Biden went down there. | ||
| Mayorkas went down there. | ||
| They cut a deal with the Mexican president who went on 60 Minutes and said, I want $20 billion or else I'm going to let it flow again, by the way. | ||
| Uh, to just hold the line until the election because the numbers were just polling terribly on this issue. | ||
| So right now, actually, the numbers are way, way down crossing illegally. | ||
| Now they're still being brought in over the land bridges and they're flying them in 80,000 a month. | ||
| Yes, maybe 100,000 a month. | ||
| But the numbers crossing illegally are way down. | ||
| But it is what I'm trying to say is that it's temporary until after the election. | ||
| And then they open the spigots up. | ||
| Mexico is doing a pretty bang up job down there, kind of like when Trump was in office, because he said 28% tariffs if you don't if you don't play ball. | ||
| So Biden goes down there. | ||
| I don't know what he gave them, but I've spent a lot of time with the Mexican troops over there, and I've watched their operation. | ||
| They are rounding them up by the thousands all across from Texas and sending them back down 1,500 miles to the southern provinces and blocking them in down there like a Gaza strip. | ||
| There must be 50,000 or 70,000 trapped down there right now. | ||
| Just until the election, though. | ||
| I've seen the video, literally. | ||
| It's an encampment and they're all waiting to come over and, you know, anybody telling you the problem's fixed, this is a temporary small bandage on a, you know, A burst artery. | ||
| And they're doing this just like they do with the crime stats. | ||
| This is an administration built on lies and they're going to continue to lie and try to make everyone think everything's fine. | ||
| And the floodgates will open up and that's why everything's on the line in this election. | ||
| Todd Bensman, thank you so much. | ||
| Where can people find more information? | ||
| And you said there's an article coming out tomorrow. | ||
| Let's actually give them that information if they want to take a look at that tomorrow. | ||
| Yeah, my employer, Center for Immigration Studies, CIS.org, that right there, that humanitarian flights is a good piece right there about how they're bringing them in. | ||
| But there's going to be another report up about another program the administration put up to very secretively Fly refugees into the country by the tens of thousands and nobody's really reported on it. | ||
| That'll be on Seattle's org Well, you're not going to get that on the mainstream media, unfortunately. | ||
| But we rely on you, Todd, and thank you for that information. | ||
| And now we're going to take it to somebody who understands what's happening just as well here in Arizona. | ||
| My good friend Abe Hamadeh running for Congressional District 8 here in Arizona. | ||
| Trump-endorsed and kickin' butt. | ||
| I just saw some new polls. | ||
| Looks like things are looking really good for you, Abe. | ||
| Just talking to Todd, though, and I want your thoughts on that. | ||
| Kamala Harris' people actually came out and said, yeah, we're going to go exactly the way we're doing it now, with the same exact policy, and that's what you can expect four more years of. | ||
| It's just stunning that they would even suggest that or say that. | ||
| Oh, exactly right, Kerry, and thank you. | ||
| I also have your endorsement for Congress, Kerry, and I always appreciate that. | ||
| You're a great friend to me and to Arizona. | ||
| But you're exactly right with Kamala Harris. | ||
| They're basically advertising right now to the American people that they don't see that the border problem is an issue. | ||
| They see it as an electoral issue. | ||
| But they have an agenda. | ||
| They want to flood our country with millions of illegal immigrants who come. | ||
| You know, President Trump's exactly right. | ||
| They're leaving prisons. | ||
| They're leaving the mental facilities. | ||
| They're coming across our southern border. | ||
| And some of them are terrorists. | ||
| You know, just the reports a few weeks ago saying that the drug cartels are working with radical Islamic terrorists to send them across our southern border. | ||
| Plus, we have the Chinese, the communist Chinese, the 30,000 communist Chinese have crossed our southern border in the last six months, Kerry. | ||
| That's why I know when I'm in Congress, I'm going to work on legislation to designate the drug cartels as a foreign terrorist organization. | ||
| That's the work that our leaders need to be doing, not basically saying that this isn't an issue and we're going to continue the business as normal because our country will not survive Another four more years of a Biden-Kamala Harris agenda that is treating illegal immigrants better than American citizens. | ||
| Here in my district, I talk to so many people, Kerry, they're all wondering how is our government treating illegal immigrants, giving them more money than people on Social Security, and they entered our country illegally. | ||
| They're not working, they're giving government cell phones, they're giving government health care. | ||
| It's absolutely sick. | ||
| I'm almost glad Kamala and her staff are advertising that it's going to be business as usual, because I think the American people are fed up. | ||
| This is why you're seeing those in Chicago, San Francisco, New York, Black Americans, Hispanic Americans, they're waking up to the failed agenda and the policies of this Biden-Harris regime that has destroyed our country. | ||
| I know when President Trump's in there, I know when you're in the Senate and when I'm in Congress, we're going to secure our border. | ||
| We know exactly what to do. | ||
| It's to return to President Trump's policies that were effective just a few years ago. | ||
| Absolutely critical. | ||
| You know, day one kind of stuff that has to happen immediately. | ||
| You know, you're running in an area that has a lot of retirees. | ||
| People used to come to Arizona because it was affordable. | ||
| It's no longer affordable. | ||
| You got a lot of veterans living in your district. | ||
| I talked to a veteran last night who had tears in his eyes and he squeezed my arm and he said, Carrie, this is not what I fought for. | ||
| I fought for our country. | ||
| I fought for our constitution. | ||
| I want my grandkids to have freedoms. | ||
| You also served in the military, and frankly, we owe these veterans to stand up and fight at this moment and not let this country go the way of communism, which is where we're headed with these radicals. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| And it really pains my heart talking to so many of these veterans who, you know, put their lives on the line for our country and to see that the America we fought for has been stolen from us by these elites, by these corporations who are putting their profits first over the American people. | ||
| And that's what's going on Washington, D.C. | ||
| in the swamp out there. | ||
| They've pillaged the American people. | ||
| They've enriched themselves at the expense of the American people. | ||
| And this is why you're starting to see everybody rising up. | ||
| They're so fed up. | ||
| And our veterans, these people, they served our country. | ||
| They need to be treated honorably. | ||
| And instead, we look at homeless are being given hotel rooms. | ||
| They're given money, Carrie. | ||
| We talk about it all the time on the campaign trail. | ||
| And here in my district, I have the highest number of retired people in my district, in all of Arizona. | ||
| They ask me all the time, why are illegal immigrants getting paid $2,500 and, you know, their social security is only about $1,500-$2,000 and it's not even increasing due to the cost of living that's increased with this inflation. | ||
| So, it's not even just the people, our senior citizens, you know, the greatest generation who are witnessing our country collapsing, but then you look at people like in my generation. | ||
| They say, how can we ever afford a home? | ||
| We can barely afford rent and yet now we're expected to save money for a home, yet Housing is increasing at rates we've never seen before. | ||
| The median house is about $420,000 to purchase. | ||
| It's out of reach for the American people. | ||
| And it's because in such a short amount of time, the Biden regime with Kamala Harris in there, they have destroyed our country. | ||
| They've destroyed our economy. | ||
| And this is why we need America first Republican warriors who are going to go into Congress, have President Trump's back and rescue the America that they stole from us. | ||
| That's absolutely right. | ||
| So we've got a primary here in Arizona tomorrow. | ||
| Abe is doing great. | ||
| Every day I go out and I get into your district because I'm, of course, running a call across the state. | ||
| People say, thank God for Abe and thank God for you that you two stood up after that election, not only in 2020, but in 2022. | ||
| And you fought and you've been fighting ever since. | ||
| And, you know, I got to admit, it was It was a really difficult time. | ||
| I know for both of us and for the whole state, you know, when they run an election like that and take our government that way. | ||
| But it sure was incredible to have a partner like you in it fighting with me because it's a daunting task to take on election fraud and maladministration. | ||
| And I know you hear how much that's appreciated when you're out there on the campaign trail. | ||
| Absolutely, Karen. | ||
| I couldn't have done this without you. | ||
| I couldn't have been in this position fighting the corruption here in Arizona. | ||
| But I know people are waking up. | ||
| Look at Venezuela's elections just yesterday. | ||
| I mean, it was disastrous where this illegitimate regime is now trying to declare victory, which we all know that the opposition won. | ||
| But it all has to do with our elections. | ||
| If we don't have secure, honest, free elections, nothing else matters. | ||
| I'm still fighting it in the courts, Carrie. | ||
| I know you are too. | ||
| I mean, we've been sanctioned and I've been sanctioned over a quarter million dollars. | ||
| You know, I just, I refuse to give up because I know what they did to the people. | ||
| When those machines went down back in November of 2022, you and I stood up and fought for the American people and fought for Arizona to get justice. | ||
| And that's what we continue to do every single day. | ||
| So this is why tomorrow, everybody has to go out and vote for Carrie Lake, Abe Hamadeh, and we're going to go save our country with the American people, with Arizona by our side. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| And you know, if we don't get our elections turned around, we're going to do that. | ||
| We are going to lose our country. | ||
| We saw what happened in Venezuela yesterday. | ||
| We have to straighten this out. | ||
| And you are the absolute only person running in that district who had the courage to stand up and fight at a time when it wasn't easy, when it's expensive, it came at great risk. | ||
| And I think of Steve Bannon. | ||
| I pray for him every single day sitting there in a prison cell. | ||
| But I also think of the other people persecuted, the brave attorneys who are willing to take on these cases and represent us and others like us in other states who are now losing their license, losing | ||
| their ability to practice law, being sanctioned. This is not a time for wimps. This is a | ||
| time for people who are willing to stand in the fire and do the right thing. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| I mean, they're trying to go after my bar license too, Kerry. | ||
| These people are sick. | ||
| It's unbelievable witnessing a Marxist takeover of our country. | ||
| I never imagined I would be here in this position, but I do believe God placed us all for a reason, and it's for us to have this 1776 type of moment where No, we want freedom. | ||
| We want our country back. | ||
| We want the America we remember where it's not all so nasty and chaotic. | ||
| We just want common sense solutions. | ||
| And I do think that this is a war that we are fighting. | ||
| And it's an ideological war. | ||
| And clearly the left right now, they're panicking because they've lost the American people. | ||
| But unfortunately, they control so many institutions. | ||
| And so many weak-kneed Republicans allow them, and that's what's so difficult. | ||
| But, you know, here in my race, you know, I'm proud to be endorsed by President Trump, proud to be endorsed by you, Kash Patel, Rick Grenell, Bernie Kerik, so many patriots, you know, who've stood strong against this corrupt system. | ||
| And I think that's what's the beautiful thing about all of this is, Carrie, that what you and I went through, we gained decades of knowledge in such a condensed period of time. | ||
| That, you know, these people who stole the election from us, these people who have destroyed our country, they should be worried. | ||
| They truly should be. | ||
| Because when the American people have power back, you know, we're going to get justice. | ||
| Well, and for everyone in Arizona and the posse out there, if you have relatives and friends in Arizona, there's literally only one person in Abe's race and only one person in my race who stood up and, A, believes there was fraud, and B, actually did something about it and continues to fight to secure our elections. | ||
| And that's what we need, courage and bravery. | ||
| Tell everybody where they can go to learn more about you and your policies, but we already know you're America first. | ||
| Then go to Abe4AZ.com, Abe4AZ.com, and I encourage everybody in Arizona to go vote for Carrie Lake and Abe Hamadeh. | ||
| Awesome. | ||
| We have another hero. | ||
| Thank you, Abe. | ||
| Another hero coming your way, Joe Kent, who is a hero running for Congress up in Washington. | ||
| We're going to check in on his race and much more coming your way next. | ||

All this nonsense, all this spin, they can't handle the truth. | |
| War Room Battleground with Stephen K. Bannon. | ||
| Oh man, time goes fast when you're hanging out with the posse. | ||
| We have so much to go through here in the next roughly 20 minutes. | ||
| And we're going to start with really one of my heroes, personal hero, Joe Kent out of Washington. | ||
| He is truly a military hero. | ||
| He's a gold star husband. | ||
| He joins us now. | ||
| And we are so thrilled, Joe, that you got President Trump's endorsement and we're hearing great things about your campaign in Washington. | ||
| We need some common sense patriots up there. | ||
| I talked to some people yesterday at church who moved to Arizona from Washington because they said we just couldn't take it anymore. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I don't want to give up on these blue states. | ||
| I want every state to be a free state. | ||
| Are you hopeful that we can turn some of these blue states around, Joe? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I am. | |
| In my district where I am, we are still a conservative district. | ||
| We have a really unified Republican Party right now. | ||
| So I'm not very optimistic about this coming November. | ||
| I think people are waking up. | ||
| I know you're out there on the campaign trail talking to people every day. | ||
| I am too. | ||
| And what I hear overwhelmingly is that we're getting a lot of people coming over to our side who just weren't engaged in politics before. | ||
| But between the inflation, the wide open southern border, look, I'm a lot further away from the southern border than you guys are down there in Arizona, obviously, but we have a huge fentanyl epidemic that's destroying our communities here because every state is basically a border state. | ||
| And that's bringing a lot of people over to our side. | ||
| And look, the left has just gone so far. | ||
| These Biden and Harris policies or Whoever's in charge, their policies are just destroying people. | ||
| And so I think we're going to have a great year. | ||
| I don't want to give up on any state. | ||
| I tell people all the time, I understand the temptation to flee and run from Washington, but these problems are going to follow you no matter where you go. | ||
| We can't give up one inch of ground. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| This is, you know, this is the next three and a half months are going to be the fight of our lives and we have to stand up and get people involved. | ||
| I had an event last night. | ||
| Two people said, this is the first time I've ever shown up for anything political in my life, but put me to work, put me to work. | ||
| And so it's, it's actually one of the really great things you see on the campaign trail, right? | ||
| Coming together of America. | ||
| I don't know about you, but I believe that we, the media obviously has been lying. | ||
| They're the biggest liars out there and telling everyone we're 50-50 and we're just at each other's throats. | ||
| They've created that animosity and we are not 50-50. | ||
| I really believe we're 75 or 80 percent of the people are with us. | ||
| They want to put our country first. | ||
| They want to turn things back around. | ||
| And they want safe streets, secure borders, a great future for the next generation. | ||
| Are you feeling something changing right now? | ||
| I'm feeling a major realignment and then just I think an awakening, too. | ||
| I mean, I'm getting people all the time at my town halls who said exactly what you heard is that, hey, I wasn't engaged in politics before. | ||
| But when I hear you guys talk, you're completely different than what the media said about you. | ||
| I was told that, hey, all you MAGA folks, you Trump guys, you're crazy. | ||
| But what you said about wanting to secure the border, to stop the fentanyl, to get inflation under control so we can afford to live, And to protect our kids. | ||
| The protection of children is a big issue up here in Washington state because our state government has gone so far. | ||
| When we talk about those issues, people are just like, we're really taken back. | ||
| They're like, hey, I thought you guys were like totally extreme. | ||
| And what you're saying is completely and totally common sense. | ||
| As a matter of fact, these are issues that most Americans agree on right now. | ||
| And if we go back 10, 15 years ago, these issues were just something that Republicans and Democrats completely agreed on. | ||
| They weren't even up for debate. | ||
| I mean, now we're having to debate about whether or not biological men belong in the little girls' room in our schools. | ||
| And that just shows you how radical the left is. | ||
| And people like my opponent, Marie Perez, she doesn't talk like a extremist Democrat. | ||
| She kind of talks like a moderate. | ||
| But then if you look at her voting record, It's in line with AOC and Nancy Pelosi and the rest of the extremist Democrats, and I do think people are really waking up to that, especially because Joe Biden ran in 2020 that he was going to bring back normalcy and decency, and people have just seen that thrown in their face for the last almost four years now, from the open border to the inflation, | ||
| It's just this sick perversion that the Democrats have with targeting our children with this transgender ideology. | ||
| So I really think we're having a great awakening here in our district. | ||
| I feel like it's taking place all over the country. | ||
| Well, and you know, Washington and Oregon and California, those states where they just let their elections run ramshotting and go absolutely You know, mail-in only. | ||
| That's when we saw the problems really creep in. | ||
| So we're going to have Katherine Engelbrecht coming up talking about a way to clean up the voter rolls next. | ||
| Congratulations on the Trump endorsement. | ||
| Great endorsement. | ||
| Totally fitting for what you stand for, which is America First. | ||
| Where can people go to get involved, find out more about your campaign, or make a donation? | ||
| Guys, it takes money to run these campaigns, especially going up against these Democrats who get their money from God knows where. | ||
| I think we kind of know where, actually. | ||
| Soros and friends. | ||
| Where can people find out more? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Exactly. | |
| Please go to joekentforcongress.com. | ||
| Anything that the Posse can donate is going to help us out a lot. | ||
| The only thing the Democrats have right now is lies and money. | ||
| And unfortunately, they've got an equal amount, I think, of lies and money. | ||
| So if the grassroots and the Posse can continue to support me at joekentforcongress.com, it's greatly appreciated. | ||
| We have a ton of town halls coming up. | ||
| I'll be out in Flaida and Vancouver later on this evening, but we've got town halls all the way up until the primary on the 6th, multiple events per day. | ||
| If you're in the district, please vote as soon as possible. | ||
| We're encouraging everyone to bank their votes. | ||
| Make sure your vote's verified. | ||
| You can find out how to do all of that at joekentforcongress.com. | ||
| That's awesome. | ||
| The last two guests we've had, Joe Kent, Abe Hammaday, they're going to get to D.C. | ||
| You don't have to guess how they're going to vote. | ||
| They're going to vote with the people, not the consultant class and the lobbyist class and the donor class. | ||
| It's going to be we, the people. | ||
| Wishing you the best of luck, sending you prayers, and it's looking good for you. | ||
| Thanks so much, Joe. | ||
| And while we're talking... | ||
| Thank you, Joe. | ||
| While we're talking about that, I want to remind you guys tonight, I'm really honored to have President Trump joining me for a tele-rally here in Arizona. | ||
| But you can join us anywhere across the country. | ||
| I think we're going to put up the graphic. | ||
| This is not the graphic I was looking for. | ||
| But while we have that up, we're having a primary night event tomorrow night. | ||
| And if you can make it tomorrow night, come on out. | ||
| This is going to be a great event. | ||
| Give me the address there, if you would. | ||
| It's at the Hilton Phoenix At the Peak Hotel. | ||
| So this is our primary night watch party. | ||
| If you're in Arizona and you want to come to it, you're welcome. | ||
| We want to be there tomorrow and celebrate. | ||
| We have a primary. | ||
| We're way up in the polls. | ||
| Our polling shows us up 30 points, but that doesn't mean you can't get out and vote. | ||
| You've got to get out and vote tomorrow, Arizona. | ||
| Get out and vote. | ||
| Here's the information on that event. | ||
| And then tonight at 8 p.m. | ||
| Eastern, 5 p.m. | ||
| Arizona time, We have an incredible event, a tele-rally, that President Trump is going to be joining me for. | ||
| And I'm also honored to have President Trump's endorsement. | ||
| And you just need to dial in to 1-888. | ||
| So we'll put that information up in just a little bit for you. | ||
| All right, let's go to Catherine Engelbrecht, True the Vote founder. | ||
| Catherine, you have done so much to try to turn these elections around. | ||
| She's joining us on the phone. | ||
| First of all, I want to thank you for your personal endorsement of me. | ||
| I know True the Vote can't endorse anybody. | ||
| But that you have gone out of your way to be so kind and supportive of me as I fought for election integrity. | ||
| I really appreciate that you got in this and have endorsed me. | ||
| And more than that, I appreciate what you're continuing to do to clean up these voter rolls. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, thank you so much for your kind words. | |
| And Carrie, I I meant that endorsement with every fiber of my being. | ||
| For the last few years, we've really been able to separate the wheat from the chaff and to see who's going to stay standing and fighting, even when the going gets tough. | ||
| And you've been so impressive. | ||
| And I just hope that everybody that's listening and is living in Arizona, please get out and vote tomorrow. | ||
| Please vote for Carrie Lake. | ||
| Please vote for Warriors. | ||
| That is what we need in this time. | ||
| And so thank you for all that you do. | ||
| What's true is that we have a project called IV3, which stands for Independent Vote Verification | ||
| and Validation. | ||
| It's one of a number of projects that we have going, but the focus for IV3 is, as you say, | ||
| cleaning the voter rolls. | ||
| And there's a date certain that we can only file up until about August 7th. | ||
| That's 90 days out from the election, and according to the National Voter Registration Act, something that most states fall under, they're not going to be looking at any big changes to the voter rolls after that 90-day mark, according to the NVRA. | ||
| And so, we've had citizens from all over the country working You know, Burning the Midnight Oil, looking at records from all across the country, we've got about 35,000 people in over 1,400 counties across the country. | ||
| And to date, the number of challenges that they have researched and submitted is right at 750,000. | ||
| So it's just a huge success and huge compliment and tribute to the great patriots out there | ||
| who are willing to devote their time to taking this because it's local. | ||
| You have to focus on just what's happening in your county. | ||
| That's the way state challenges work because you can only challenge within your own county, | ||
| your municipality. | ||
| So these are people cleaning up what's going on in their own backyard and my hat's off | ||
| to them. | ||
| It's a great success. | ||
| So people who have a little extra time and are really concerned can help clean up the | ||
| voter rolls using, and you're going to give us information on how they can do this. | ||
| You know you have struck a nerve. | ||
| You know you are right over the bullseye and the target when CNN's doing a hit piece on this. | ||
| They're very worried. | ||
| That real people are saying, look, I've got some spare time. | ||
| I don't want to see dead people on the voter roll. | ||
| I don't want to see people who don't live here anymore, people who never lived here, and they're helping to clean these up. | ||
| Tell us, you're getting hit by CNN that tells me you're probably doing something good. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, well, just actually just a few hours ago or so, CNN came out with a hit piece and And you know it's a coordinated attack when it's not just a hit piece. | |
| We knew that was coming early this week because of what was happening last week. | ||
| CNN had been following around volunteers and showing up at their homes with cameras. | ||
| It's been quite the Uh, quite the, quite the challenge here of these last few weeks. | ||
| But it, as you say, it's because we are doing something that makes a material difference, and they just, they just can't stand that. | ||
| But what's most scary to them, I believe, what's most troubling, is that citizens are saying enough is enough and getting involved. | ||
| So yeah, they came out with a hit piece, but the way you know it's coordinated is immediately. | ||
| That story dropped, and then our phones and emails blew up with, with hate mail and threats, and now law enforcement is involved, and You know, it's par for the course. | ||
| I know you know that feeling, but you caught me on a, you know, you caught me on the swing of just having it all happen. | ||
| So my phone's blowing up right now with I know how it goes when you're doing something right and trying to save this country, the really slimy people come forward. | ||
| We're looking at a little bit of that piece on CNN, but tell us, if people want to get involved, there's a deadline of August 7th, so we've got to get active. | ||
| Where can they go quickly, because we've got one more guest, where can they go to find out more or get involved, Catherine? | ||
|
unidentified
|
They can go to True The Vote. | |
| TrueTheVote.org is our website. | ||
| Click on engage and down will pop all the projects we're looking or we're working on and IV3 is among them. | ||
| Or they can go to IV3.us and that'll take them right to the initiative. | ||
| You got to register to be a part of it but then you will give you access to the voter rolls and of course they're in Arizona county by county those rolls but we'll give them to you and you can see for yourselves what it is that we're talking about. | ||
| Oh yeah. | ||
| I mean, you know, there's a belief we have up to maybe a million people who shouldn't be on our voter rolls here in Arizona. | ||
| We need help. | ||
| Thank you, Catherine. | ||
| Oh boy, we got so much more coming up. | ||
| Mark Pelletta is an expert when it comes to the Supreme Court. | ||
| He's joining us live. | ||
| Mark, I want to get right to you because I read today, and I heard this was coming, that a guy who can't even string two sentences together, can't find the stairs on a stage, Can't walk up a flight of stairs. | ||
| Before he leaves, Joe Biden wants to retool the Supreme Court. | ||
| This sounds like a nightmare in the making. | ||
| Lay it out. | ||
| What's this about and what's he have planned? | ||
| Thanks, Carrie. | ||
| Joe Biden is the most malignant force for the Supreme Court in modern times. | ||
| He's just come up with a proposal today. | ||
| It's been leaking out to adopt a term limit of 18 years for Supreme Court justices. | ||
| And to have some sort of ethics code that's going to be enforced by some outside body on the Supreme Court. | ||
| And it's all an effort to destroy the Supreme Court now that the left no longer controls it. | ||
| The left is furious that for 70, 80 years the left controlled it. | ||
| And that's how they were able to get Roe v. Wade and race-based affirmative action as part of the law of our land. | ||
| This court came along with these new appointments by President Trump and just have changed. | ||
| It's difficult to overstate the seismic impact that these appointments have had on our nation's | ||
| jurisprudence. | ||
| And so when you look at the Biden proposal, it doesn't even make any sense. | ||
| You would need a constitutional amendment to do both of these things. | ||
| The Supreme Court is the highest court in the land. | ||
| There's nothing that sits above it. | ||
| So there's nothing that can rule, sort of enforce an ethics code against it. | ||
| And justices are appointed for life. | ||
| So this 18 year term that Biden is proposing, he doesn't even know the constitution, right? | ||
| That's why I think he finished in the lower part of his law class at at Syracuse Law School. So it's another attempt by the left | ||
| to destroy the court. | ||
| Biden has been dragged along on this and he sort of jumped in in the last few years on this issue, | ||
| this effort. It's only kind of the lunatic left that has supported court packing, which is what | ||
| this basically is. But Kamala Harris is actually a true believer in this stuff. | ||
| She was talking about this back in 2019 when she was interviewed by the New York Times and she was, as she said, absolutely open to court packing. | ||
| So we need to push back. | ||
| What we see is a court that defends our liberties, defends the Second Amendment, takes on the administrative state to dismantle it. | ||
| You know, getting rid of race based affirmative action and getting rid of a right to an abortion in the Constitution. | ||
| It's justices understanding their role in our society, which is that the legislatures are the ones who are supposed to make policy decisions, not the Supreme Court. | ||
| That's what the left wants. | ||
| They want it to be a rubber stamp, as we just talked about Venezuela. | ||
| Venezuela is a country where they pack the court. | ||
| I think it was something like 14 justices, and when Maduro and Chavez came in, they raised it to 26. | ||
| And it's something like 45,000 decisions that the Supreme Court has ruled on in Venezuela, all pro-government. | ||
| So that's what the left wants. | ||
| They want a rubber stamp for their policies. | ||
| They follow the same playbook. | ||
| It's just amazing. | ||
| You can just see it in all of these different countries. | ||
| You see it here with Kamala and Joe. | ||
| My opponent, Ruben Gallego, wants to get rid of the filibuster for everything, including stacking the court. | ||
| This is what is on the line in this upcoming election. | ||
| And we can't fall for these, you know, fancy commercials they put out. | ||
| They're going to all act like moderates. | ||
| They're not going to put out a commercial telling you they're communists. | ||
| They're going to all act like moderates, and we have to see through that garbage. | ||
| It's just imperative. | ||
| I was thinking of this ridiculous word salad that Kamala says all the time. | ||
| You've probably seen the memes on it. | ||
| What can be unburdened by what has been. | ||
| She keeps repeating that, repeating it. | ||
| It struck me, what they want, their what can be is communism, unburdened by what has been, which is a constitutional republic. | ||
| They want to push communism and they don't want to be burdened by this thing called the U.S. | ||
| Constitution. | ||
| That's what's at stake going forward. | ||
| And that's what she means in that word salad. | ||
| Yeah, well, she gives it away when she says equity is what everyone ends up at the same place. | ||
| That is not the American way. | ||
| That's not equality, right? | ||
| It's equality is everyone is given an equal opportunity, right? | ||
| An opportunity to advance. | ||
| You don't all end up. | ||
| We don't all end up in the same place. | ||
| Some people work harder. | ||
| Some people make different choices. | ||
| But that's what communism is. | ||
| That's what socialism is. | ||
| Everyone ends up in the same place. | ||
| That's why it's so dangerous. | ||
| That's why they want the court. | ||
| They want to control the court so they can get that as their end result. | ||
| And we see how important the Supreme Court is, right? | ||
| When you see the presidential immunity decision or some of these other cases that have come down. | ||
| If the court was different, Kind of the older court, if you will. | ||
| It would be a disaster right now. | ||
| So we need to protect the Supreme Court. | ||
| We need to defend the justices, particularly Justice Thomas, Justice Alito, but all of them because they're all under assault. | ||
| You saw Senator Schumer literally threaten physical violence to Kavanaugh and Gorsuch if they didn't vote a certain way on an abortion case. | ||
| While that case was being argued, he literally stood on the steps of the Supreme Court and said, you better vote this way or you won't know what hit you. | ||
| And we know what happened later, right? | ||
| A assassin, a would-be assassin, showed up at Kavanaugh's home to kill him and his family. | ||
| That's what the left wants. | ||
| That's what they tolerate. | ||
| That's what they push. | ||
| That's what we saw happen in Butler, Pennsylvania, right? | ||
| The left saying dangerous rhetoric to unhinge, you know, to unleash lunatics onto our system of government. | ||
| Well, it's scary times. | ||
| We know how important the courts are. | ||
| We want equal justice. | ||
| We want not a two-tiered justice system. | ||
| We see it in the lower-level courts already, the corruption in so many of these jurisdictions, including some here in Arizona. | ||
| We saw it in New York. | ||
| We've seen it all over. | ||
| Imagine if these leftists have their say with the U.S. | ||
| Supreme Court. | ||
| We'll be done. | ||
| The country will be done. | ||
| How can people find out more, Mark, get involved, find out more about what they can do to maybe try to stop this kind of measure from taking place? | ||
| Sure. | ||
| You can follow me at Mark Palin on X. I have a website, markpalin.com, and I'm a senior fellow at Center for Renewing America, where we do a lot of great stuff, led by Russ Vo, on taking on the administrative state and protecting our liberties. | ||
| Guys are great. | ||
| You do great work. | ||
| You and Russ over there. | ||
| Thank you so much. | ||
| Appreciate you being on the War Room today. | ||
| Got a very little time left, but I wanted to show you what's happening here in Arizona, but you're welcome to join anywhere across the country. | ||
| President Trump, I'm so honored, is going to join me for a tele-rally. | ||
| You're looking at the information. | ||
| It starts at 8 p.m. | ||
| Eastern, 5 p.m. | ||
| Pacific in Arizona time. | ||
| And if you want to join in, just dial up 1-888. | ||
| 476-4187. | ||
| That's 888-476-4187. | ||
| Dial in right around five o'clock and you can join President Trump and me. | ||
| And he's just really honored to have his endorsement here. | ||
| We've got a lot coming up next week. | ||
| We've got the big primary tomorrow. | ||
| You can get up early and go vote here in Arizona. | ||
| Go to your polling place. | ||
| You can vote at any voting center tomorrow. | ||
| You've got to vote for me. | ||
| You've got to vote for Abe. | ||
| Vote for some of these America First patriots. | ||
| We need backup for President Trump. | ||
| We don't need backstabbers. | ||
| We need people who will have his back. | ||
| And then join us tomorrow starting at 6.30 for this great event that we're going to have, our primary night party. | ||
| You can have more information and find more information at CarrieLake.com or you can go to see me at Twitter and all the other social media sites. | ||
| It's been so much fun. | ||
| Thank you to the War Room Posse. | ||
| Remember, we gotta go out and be the voice. | ||
| No more sitting down being quiet. | ||
| They've locked Bannon up. | ||
| We need to go out and be the voice. | ||
| God bless you all. |
