Midterm Election Momentum 00:06:41
Jack Rosovic in for Charlie Kirk.
Tyler Boyer and Mike Davis join us for an update on the midterm elections.
Are Republicans sleepwalking into this election?
Why are Democrats starting to see more signs of enthusiasm and momentum?
We are going to break it down.
By the way, make sure you go and check out AmericaFestAMFS.com or go to turningpointusa tposa.com.
Get your tickets, secure them immediately for AmericaFest coming up, Phoenix, Arizona.
Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.
I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
I want to thank Charlie.
He's an incredible guy.
His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created.
Turning point USA.
We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
That's why we are here.

The emails have been pouring in.
I mean, it's just a flood of emails, very emotional stuff that we're reading, very emotional segment, I think, for a lot of people, and hit a lot of people in various different ways.
So the emails are flooding in.
We just talked to a full segment, Viva Fry out of Canada, one of the best lawyers and commentators up there, who has explained to us that Canada has now authorized medically assisted suicide, euthanasia, government approved, and that the numbers are in for last year and it was over 10,000, which accounted for 3.2% of all deaths in Canada.
So let's look at this.
This is an email that just came in.
Canada is also recommending suicide for veterans who are suffering from PTSD, recommending suicide from veterans.
See if we can track that article down.
Then another one that says, you better tell Viva that if they don't get a MAGA movement going up there in Canada, I mean, real quick, they are going to be living in Nazism.
That's an email from Kyle.
An email in from Erica.
No, not that, Erica, but another Erica that said, hi, Jack, filling in for Charlie.
I knew a man in 2021.
And by the way, this guy, guys, this email, it's a little rough.
It's a little rough, but I'm going to read it to you because this is why we do the work here.
I knew a man in 2021 that was in his early 70s that had a burst disc, and they told him they couldn't do anything to help him here in Canada.
So keep in mind, right, now you got the Canadian socialized healthcare system saying that you can't do anything for you.
So he decided to do medically assisted death.
He spoke to the team on Saturday.
Monday, he decided to do it.
And it was supposed to take several days for the process to be finalized.
They were going to do it Wednesday, but then they called him on Tuesday morning and told him that he could do it that evening.
The man spent all day crying and sobbing.
That is not the action of a man wanting to die.
It was heartbreaking and has stayed with me.
I just wanted to share.
Have a great day, Erica.
That's going on north of our border.
That's what they want here.
That's cynicism.
That's nihilism.
Because deep down, people want to live.
That is the human spirit.
That is the spirit.
If there is anything called a new right in this country, it's not the old right.
It's not your granddaddy's GOP.
It's not your father's GOP.
It's not your father's conservatism.
We're not doing that anymore.
This is the love of life.
We are the love of humanity.
We love being alive.
We want to go out, see the day.
We want Carpe Diem, but at the same time, we also have a healthy respect for tradition.
This is not the worship of ashes.
It is the preservation of fire.
That's what respect for tradition is.
So many emails in, but I want to also bring in.
We've got all.
Now, I talked earlier about this.
I know that segment was very emotional.
Maybe we can get our let our next guest comment on it because I know it's an important one for him as well.
Tyler Boyer got him on from Turning Point Action.
So, Tyler, I know, I don't know if you're listening to that last segment, and I wanted to have you on to talk about everything that Turning Point Action is doing.
And we will do that, and we'll do in a midterms update.
But man, the emails that we're getting out on this last segment about the it's mass euthanasia.
I don't know how else to put it, it's math, mass euthanasia going on up in Canada.
What is your take on this?
The emails, they're just flying it and they're flying it.
It's so sad to see.
I mean, look, I mean, this is the reality of what Marxism does to the greater body of a country and leadership really matters.
And so, look, at the end of the day, you know, I think you just tweeted this out yesterday: as a world without religion and is a world without purpose and understanding, the less religion that we've seen across the world and in America, and particularly the Western hemisphere, the more sick we've seen some of our massive parts of our society become.
And, you know, this, I know, I can tell you this: as I know, I have a lot of friends in Alberta who are sick and tired of this stuff.
And I think they would, I think they would, in a heartbeat, join, join the union here if they could, because I think they're sick and tired of the coastal elites in Canada just dictating policy that's anti-religious, anti-God, anti-human.
You know, that's where they're at.
So, no, I agree with you.
I think it is anti-human, and I think it's cynical.
I think it's nihilistic.
It's believing that life is all about oblivion, that we're just, you know, crude matter and that we evaporate, and that's the end, and there's nothing else for us.
And so, why even do anything?
Why not just go drink and smoke whatever you want and lose your personal health, your individual health, and then die, right?
And then die, because what's the point of life if there's nothing?
And I think that's ridiculous.
I think it's so nihilistic, it's horrible.
But in the if you understand and you've been following the Agenda 21 plan and everything else for years and years and years, like so many activists have, I know, that listened to the show and listened to Rav and they listened to Steve and they listened to Charlie, listen to you.
You know, the Agenda 21 plan is they want to eliminate humans off the planet.
That's what they, that's what they want to do.
And so, when you look at this and you say, Hey, well, why, why are these things happening around us that are so antithetical to life?
Vance Wins Pennsylvania 00:08:31
Um, you know, which was the core of the founding of America, right?
Was this entire idea of protecting life and your land and the God-given liberty that we have?
That is that you can find it across the big moat that we have here and the heart of the sick, sick Marxists who are trying to destroy the human race.
And that's what that's what we're up against.
And there's going to be kind of a new version of this that we are battling as younger, as the younger generation, as we move forward with Soros 2.0 and everything else, which is that they just want to eliminate and eradicate human life so that because they can control it better.
And that's what they want.
Well, Tyler, part of that fighting back means organizing, it means rallying.
And I don't want to detract from what you and Turning Point Action were able to do in a very short time span last week.
You crisscrossed the country, three major events in three of probably the biggest states in the nation going into these midterm elections: Arizona, Ohio, Pennsylvania.
You had Governor DeSantis, you had Kerry Lake, Blake Masters, Doug Mastriano, JD Vance, all of which are winnable races.
New numbers out for Vance this morning that show that he is actually up five over Tim Ryan.
We're also seeing numbers in the rest of those states that say pretty much that all the other candidates I just mentioned, they're within striking distance.
These are all winnable races.
Tyler, tell me why those events were successful and why do we need organizations like Turning Point Action to fight back against everything that you just outlined?
Well, here at Turning Point Action, we've been at the heart.
And we are, for those of you that follow Turning Point USA, Turning Point USA is the nonprofit side of what Turning Point Action is Day, which is the more political side, which is where C4.
And we go out and what we do is we organize events to really unify and bring together the entire movement.
And that's what we did.
So we hosted Governor DeSantis, who is a great dude who has a unique base.
I mean, he's the most popular governor in the world, right?
He's these beloved.
And we went out and we organized people to get behind Doug and JD in a unique way.
And JD is, we actually rallied in Youngstown, which is the heart of his opponent's district in Congress.
And so there's a lot of people who are pretty ticked off at him in Ohio at the Democrats right now.
And so this is an easy vote this year, but it's our job to help unify and support the entire team to work together.
And that's what we're doing.
How many years have I been telling you about Relief Factor?
Producer Andrew's right here doing an Iron Man thanks to Relief Factor.
And truth is, I know there are millions of people.
In fact, some say over 100 million people struggling with some kind of pain, maybe from exercise or just getting older.
That can do it, getting older, which is why I'm so impressed with the people at relieffactor.com.
They are on a mission.
You rarely see this kind of focus and commitment.
They recently shared with me that they are doubling down and want to literally double their total number of happy customers in the next year.
And I believe they'll do it.
So here's the deal: if you're struggling with back pain, neck pain, shoulder, hip, or knee pain, even general muscle aches and pain, then I'm suggesting you order their three-week quick start, still discounted, only $19.95.
Go to relieffactor.com.
That's relieffactor.com.
Check it out right now, relieffactor.com.
You should order the three-week quick start to discount only $19.95 to see if it will work for you.
I think it possibly could.
Give your body what it needs to heal itself.
Go to relieffactor.com.
That's relief factor.com.
Check it out right now.
Just this morning, breaking Leonard Leo has received a huge infusion of cash and sort of this corporate transfer.
They basically, there was a Republican mega donor that just donated his entire company to Leonard Leo.
So 1.6 billion.
Hopefully that money will go into this new war chest for what we're talking about, these candidates in winnable races across the country.
And Tyler, you've gone through the polling.
You've got Trafalgar out there now.
You've been on the ground in three states in one week with these rallies with Governor DeSantis.
And I really want, Tyler, if you can walk us through some of the stuff that we're seeing with this polling and then also the fact that we now that the Republicans have this war chest, are they going to be able to use that to get up on the air and to start propagating the air game and the airwaves for all of this?
Tyler, what should Republicans be looking at both from an inside standpoint of the party and then outside where you're the activist, whether you're one of the people that's just writing into freedom at Charlie Kirk.com?
No, Jack, I mean, you and I have seen the energy that exists and the energy is huge.
And that's what we saw at these last three events in Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Arizona.
That the base is, they're on point.
They're excited to get out and vote and vote hard against Joe Biden's policies.
But for these exciting candidates, I mean, look, Carrie Lake, JD Vance, and Doug Mastriano are three examples of this new right concept, right?
Which is we have conservatives who are actually willing to get out there and fight.
And so you're seeing these polling come out now, and the polls are showing that all three of these guys are within five points or they're up even in polls, which is a great sign because the polling isn't taking into account the separation and turnout that we're going to see out of our base versus the Democrat base because the Democrat base has nothing to vote for.
They are depressed.
They're really feeling sheepish about their vote for Joe Biden in 2020.
And those that did are not going to show up for this midterm.
And so we have to take advantage of that.
So just knowing that is that anything, anytime you see a poll come out that's within five points for a Republican, it shows that a Republican is three points down or four points down.
Know that they're already winning.
But look, we have to win.
Tyler, as you're saying that, let's throw up these polls because we've got it.
We can put on screen the Trafalgar polls.
Let's just go through the polls.
And as you talk about it, it's 11, 12, 13.
Let's just run through them in a series to show the audience exactly what Tyler is talking about.
So you've got Ohio there.
You've got JD Vance.
He's up by five.
Then in Pennsylvania, you're seeing the same thing.
It's again, these five-point races, essentially.
Here's Pennsylvania Senate.
So you've got Oz, who's down by a little bit.
You've got Fetterman, who's up by, you know, Fetterman.
They used to say that there's no such thing as Sasquatch, but, you know, they got one running for Senate in Pennsylvania.
So I think we may have found the missing link there, a guy who can't even, but I think it's, no, I do think it's nice that Sloth finally got out from under the bed, under the chairs, under the stairs there from the Goonies and is now, you know, doing something positive with its life.
But I think, I think Oz can come in swinging and he's starting to.
And the same deal with Mastriano.
So Tyler, in the last two minutes, break down for us what do Republicans need to do to close this gap and start, look, you got to close the deal.
Got voting.
I was going to say, I was wondering what Fetterman's been doing since his role in the Princess Bride.
So it's been some time.
But I mean, look, if you have a Republican that's down just a few points right now, we have to get up as much as possible.
So the trajectory that JD Vance is on in Ohio is a good one.
We need that in Arizona and Pennsylvania for a very specific reason.
Blake Masters and Dr. Oz are going to have the entire world thrown at them in the kitchen sink.
And so the higher that Mastriano and that Kerry Lake can get up, they're going to help continue to drag the vote also to the right for conservatives within those Senate races, which are going to be much tougher.
By the way, Tyler, that was your work because the New York Times ran the piece over the weekend stating that Republicans are now coalescing around Doug Mastriano.
They said they were a little cool to him at first.
You know, they weren't sure he wasn't exactly the establishment pick.
But I really think that it was your work, turning point action, bringing DeSantis in, saying this is our guy.
This is the guy who can win in Pennsylvania.
He will be the next governor.
Now you're starting to see that roll around.
Tyler, where can people go to follow you, to follow more of your work, and to, if they want to get involved with turning point action and actually not just take this passively, but understand you have 78 days until election day with turning point action.
Yeah, look, guys, we have to win 10,000 votes per day in Arizona and independents, and we need your help.
Fighting State by State 00:16:05
tpaction.com.
You can get involved.
You can see what we're doing on the Super Saturday front.
We're running Super Saturdays in Arizona, Ohio, Florida, Michigan, Wisconsin, everywhere that we need to win.
And we need your help.
Say in Georgia, we need your help.
So tpaction.com, let's re-energize the base and get ourselves ready to win in 2022 and then set ourselves up for success for 2024.

Now, I was digging into this Leonard Leo story, and suddenly I'm getting, look at this.
There's, you know, they're sending me these tweets from liberal blue checks are freaking out that Republicans actually have a billionaire on their side because there's no such thing as any left-wing billionaires.
There's no such thing as left-wing billions.
Can you guys show image 17?
Can we show those up?
What does this say?
So this is from Sarah Kensier.
It says, Leonard Leo is a right-wing fanatic stealth operative who bankrolls fanatic, right-wing policymakers.
Barry Seed, who bankrolls this bankroller.
He has a history of climate change, denialism, and bigotry, which is barely touched upon here.
And I also, by the way, I love, so explain to me this.
Just hold on a second.
You're saying that it's a stealth donation, and you can find so many more tweets about how it's dark money, it's dark money.
It's all stealth.
It's all doing this.
It's what, I mean, it's reported in the New York Times, right?
Ken Vogel had the story up.
Not really all that stealth, is it?
I mean, it's right there.
And show, show image 16 if you guys can, because let's just take a look at what's going on the other side here.
That a tweet up from Eric Erickson, and he's got it from Americans Republic Trust: left-wing dark money.
And all the way, all of the various from Arabella investors all the way to the new venture fund, the 1630 fund, the Winward Fund, the Swiss Billionaire.
It just goes on and on and on and on about the insanity.
It doesn't even talk about Center for American Progress.
Okay, you got the Podesta group there that Neera Tandon and Ron Klain came from.
Stacey Abrams was a board.
I mean, these huge, massive groups.
I will always say this.
I will always say that the one thing that the left always was a generation, by the way, ahead of the right on in terms of this, is creating their own infrastructure, creating these institutions that they can go in and out of government.
They can work directly with government.
I want to bring on Mike Davis to talk about this a little bit because Mike and I were texting on this.
And Mike, you and I have been going back and forth.
And you've been doing such a great job on the war room.
I pulled you in here for double duty to cover down on the Leonard Leo story.
And also because the overarching story that we're talking about today on the show is: are Republicans ready for this midterm election?
Bloomberg's got the headline up.
It says, Democrats are optimistic.
Democrats are seeing energy.
Democrats are seeing momentum.
We're starting to see numbers coalesce around Biden on the left.
What does this mean for us?
You've got the Leonard Leo story out there.
Then we've also got these midterm races.
Mike Davis, what say you?
Are Republicans sleepwalking into November?
Well, the left always out-raises and out-organizes us.
And they particularly do this on the 501c3 and 501c4 side with their dark money.
And so, what I hope happens with this money is that they instead of spending, and I hope we don't waste a bunch of money on meaningless TV ads that makes the consultants rich and makes and has little impacts.
What we need to do is spend this money on the ground game.
We need to spend this on organizers and lawyers and people who are on the ground fighting these fights, whether at the national level or in the state level.
Because what we can't do is wait until election day and decide we're going to have election integrity.
You need to have systems in place, lawyers in place, lawsuits filed long before election weeks.
It's not election day anymore.
The election happens for weeks, and we need to be ahead of this.
We need to be getting injunctions ahead of time and actually get serious this time around about election integrity.
Lawyers like Harmee Dylan are great people to lead this type of an effort.
We need to make sure that that money that we're raising on the right actually gets to the lawyers and organizers on the ground so they can actually be effective.
Mike, I think that's right.
I do think that there's a place, you know, we got an email in from Arlene on this that actually had a great point.
She said, We're giving millions to these candidates for empty commercials, but then there's already Democrat, highly funded propaganda.
Democrats obviously already have the media on their side 24-7.
But I do think that there is a role for these ads.
I mean, look at Pennsylvania, for example.
Why hasn't anyone, I haven't seen it yet, where's the independent expenditure creating a dramatization of John Fetterman chasing down a black jogger with a shotgun when he was the mayor of Braddock, Pennsylvania?
He did that.
Okay.
Where's the ad that shows the dramatization of that from the right?
They'll say, you know, they'll cry for havoc and all this when the left does it, but the right, you know, we just kind of sit back and play these Namby Pamby ads that don't really do very well.
I do think that there's a role for them, but I think you're also 100% correct that you need to start fighting the election integrity front before all of this comes up.
I want to also ask you about the role of the Dobbs decision.
Obviously, you're the head of the Article III project, very focused on the judiciary, but we know the Dobbs decision came down and we're starting to see this narrative.
This is what Bloomberg talks about.
And I've seen a lot of the talking heads this past Sunday were saying, oh, the Dobbs decision, that's really what's rallying Democrats.
Also, the climate change rallying behind Biden, this huge, I call the, you know, they say it's the Inflation Reduction Act, but it's actually a backdoor Green New Deal.
What is the role of Dobbs in these midterms?
I think it's going to be state by state.
And it's, you know, in some states, it may be helpful for Democrats.
In other states, it may not be helpful for Democrats.
But I will say this.
So if you're a suburban mom right now, I think you're a heck of a lot more concerned about oil prices, gas prices, inflation than you are about some hypothetical abortion that you're never going to need.
So I think people are overplaying what Dobbs is going to do in this election.
At the end of the day, this is going to be about inflation.
This is going to be about their kids.
It's going to be about their kids' safety.
It's going to be about oil prices.
And it's going to be about crime.
And it's going to be about schools.
I just don't think that Dobbs is going to be the decisive issue this election.
One thing that I've said as well, that even though that is the media narrative and they're trying to push this, I also say, and there certainly are some people out there for which abortion, whether you're pro-life or pro-choice, is looking at it from political analysis, that is your single issue.
And so do those, so people say, oh, well, it mobilizes people on the ref on the left.
Sure, but it also mobilizes people on the right.
It also mobilizes pro-lifers.
So at some point, you're going to achieve some kind of parity there.
And then the real question is what you're saying is that what happens with these suburban voters, what happens with these moderates, these independents?
And when you look at it, law and order, crime, so many of these issues out there.
But I do also want to bring up what about Kansas?
Remember, Kansas had that ballot measure.
It went down in flames.
And I'm just going to say it went down in flames.
This was something that it wasn't nationalized.
And I think that was a huge problem in Kansas.
But we saw that.
Was Kansas potentially, do you think, a bellwether for where this movement stands on that question of Dobbs?
Well, I mean, it's, again, it's going to be state by state.
I think part of it was that ballot measure was written so poorly in Kansas.
But, you know, part of this is that each state has to figure out how far can you push one way or the other without enraging the other side's base.
And if you do, I'm pro-life.
I think that we should outlaw abortions, except for in the most rare circumstances where the life of the mother is at stake.
But, you know, that's not where all of America is.
So I think that, you know, people are saying that with Dobbs, they, you know, that this is an attack on democracy.
It was actually quite the opposite.
It returned abortion regulations back to the states where they were for the first 200 years of our republic before 50 years ago when a majority of unelected men on the Supreme Court decided that they were going to rule by judicial fiat when it comes to abortion regulations to protect the abortion industry.
Now it's going to be decided in all 50 states and democracy is actually going to work itself out.
In some states like California, you're going to have, you know, you're going to have abortion up until the moment of birth.
In other states, you're not.
So I always say that if you don't like COVID restrictions, move to Florida.
If you don't like abortion restrictions, move to California.
You know, that is part of the federalism that's out there.
But of course, they're trying to nationalize every single one of these.
Now, when we look at some of the races, and we just had Tyler Bouron talking about he was campaigning out in Arizona, in Pennsylvania, he was campaigning in Ohio for these candidates.
Three races, three states where also DeSantis came up, key Senate races there.
Do you think, and you spent a lot of time in the Senate, do you think that Republicans have a path to victory in the Senate?
Yes, I mean, we're definitely going to take back the House and the Senate.
What we need to do is just come together as a party and realize that if you want to stop Biden's radical agenda, if you want to stop his radical judicial nominees, we need to win back the Senate.
So, you know, there are places like in Pennsylvania where people didn't like Oz, but you know what?
We're just going to have to, some of us are just going to have to hold our nose and vote for him because controlling the Senate is a lot more important than one candidate who we think is flawed.
Well, it does seem like it's coming down to a game of inches.
And that could be, and so a seat like Pennsylvania.
So Pat Toomey is retiring.
That is a Republican hold.
So that's a Republican must hold seat when you look at it in terms of numbers.
In Arizona, what they're trying to do is flip.
So that's, you've got Mark Kelly, who's been in there for the special term.
Now Blake Masters coming up, first-time candidate against him trying to actually flip that.
So that tips one other.
Are there any other flips that you're looking at out there?
Well, there's the Nevada race with Adam Laxolt, who can easily win in Nevada.
He's a dynamic candidate.
You have Blake Masters, like you said, in Arizona.
Maybe look for New Hampshire.
See what's happening up in New Hampshire.
And so, you know, it's going to be tight.
And the key is turnout.
We need to, Republicans need to understand that we can't sit it out.
We need to get out there.
We sat back during the Georgia runoffs and lost two Senate seats in Georgia.
We lost the Senate.
And now we have this Marxist takeover.
We can't let this happen again.
You can't let Biden appoint his radical judges.
I think that there is a real potential here that if you nationalize these races, you have the potential, Republicans have the potential to run the table.
And I think that's something that's the missing piece.
That's the missing ingredient.
That's the missing jigsaw piece in the whole puzzle country right now.
That if you nationalize this and you have a real ethos of the party, an ethos of the movement, and it has to be a new right ethos.
You can run the table and you can not only win the House, but you can also take back the Senate.
Ron Johnson, they're saying he's down in the polls.
We're looking at Georgia, Herschel.
They say Herschel Walker can't win.
You go over to some of these other states, they're saying there's no way you're down by five.
You're down by five.
But then Tyler Boyer just came on last segment and said, well, if you're down by five, that means that a solid ground game can push you over that gap.
Do you believe that?
Do you believe that if you're down by five in these points that you can win?
Yeah, I mean, we're not, I don't even think they're looking at likely voters right now.
They're looking at registered voters.
And once you put on the likely voter screen, this is going to tighten up.
Once Republicans start fundraising, this will tighten up.
Once Trump gets out there and does the rallies, this will tighten up.
We're going to win big this November.
We're definitely going to win the House and we need to come together.
Like you said, Jack, we need to nationalize these races and we can win back the Senate.
Oh, against President Biden.
But also, and then Mike, you know, now that I have you on, let me ask you about the role of, and obviously you've been talking about this on War Room day in, day out, this raid, this completely illegal raid that I think even has moderates and independents taking pause and saying, wait a minute, our Department of Justice is not supposed to be doing things like this.
And certainly not within the confines of a midterm election, certainly against a guy who's more than likely going to be the leading opposition candidate.
What kind of a role does the Mar-a-Lago raid actually play in the midterms, if any at all?
Well, it has, if you look at President Trump's poll numbers, they've gone up by like 12 points since this raid happened.
This raid is managing to unify Republicans for President Trump.
Even people who had questions or were skeptical of President Trump are now getting fully behind him and he's even pulling in independents.
They misstepped badly with this raid.
It was unlawful.
It was unnecessary and it was unprecedented and it's going to backfire the Democrats badly.
Mike, you've been in the game for a minute.
What do you think is the most effective way?
So we've talked about activism.
We talked about organizing.
What about donation?
What about people?
Because there are people out there in the audience that say, look, I don't have time, but I do want to give it the office.
I do want to help.
I can help by funding, putting some fuel in the tank.
What is the best way for people to donate?
Is it donating to the party?
Is it donating to individual campaigns, independent organizations?
What do you think?
If I were a small dollar donor, I would donate directly to the campaigns.
And if, you know, only give what you can afford to give.
I know the times are tight right now, but if you can give directly to the political campaigns, that's the most effective use of your money to build up that small dollar donor base.
I think that's right, because that small dollar donor base, not only does that put fuel in the tank, gives you that cash on hand, but it also gives you the ability.
It gives you the ability to have that data.
You can mobilize them.
So you're actually kind of building both at the same time.
And I really do think when it comes to the numbers, Mastriano, only something like 400K in the book.
Bruising primary for Mastriano.
That is a state specifically where he's going to need fuel in the tank if he wants to take on the extremely well-funded Josh Shapiro, spoiled rich kid, Josh Shapiro.
I've known that guy since probably 2008, back when he was a state rep. Just complete, complete spoiled rich kid.

And I think people need to start going after him because nobody is.
Mike, where can people go?
Where can they follow you?
Where they can get access to the work?
