| Nebraska has some of the best people in the country. | |
| We're getting hundreds of emails saying, what in the fresh was that? | |
| Oh, we got to wait till next year. | |
| Man. | |
| Well, joining us now is a total patriot. | |
| She's a special person. | |
| I've known her for quite a while. | |
| She's a Turning Point alum, one of the original Turning Point leaders, and she is on the ground in Nebraska. | |
| She knows her stuff. | |
| Malia Shirley, Malia, welcome to the program. | |
| Great to have you on. | |
| You know your stuff. | |
| What is the latest on the ground here? | |
| I mean, so I heard, I heard, oh, we got to wait till next year. | |
| This thing's not dead. | |
| We're like one or two votes away. | |
| I mean, and even if it fails, we dust ourselves off and we figure it out. | |
| Malia, what's going on here? | |
| Absolutely. | |
| Well, thanks for having me, Charlie. | |
| So we have multiple paths forward here. | |
| We can add it as an amendment to a bill that's already on general file. | |
| Governor Pillen can call a special session for it. | |
| We can also encourage Speaker Arch to bring Lippincock's bill that is already in committee. | |
| We have the votes to get it out of committee. | |
| We can bring that to general file as well. | |
| So there are a few different paths that we can take. | |
| What we're trying to do right now is Senator Lippincott mentioned that we're three votes short to reach that 33 threshold to get it past the filibuster. | |
| What no one has mentioned yet that I've heard is we only need 33 votes for cloture, but we need 25 votes for it to pass. | |
| And we already have the 25 votes for passage. | |
| So what we could do essentially is encourage some of those senators that might not want to vote for the bill to still vote yes on cloture, which is what senators have done for other pieces of legislation in the past. | |
| Yeah, so you vote to allow it to go and then you vote against it. | |
| That makes perfect sense for me. | |
| So the filibuster rules, can they be changed? | |
| So from what I have been told, I might need a fact check on this, but from what I have been told is the speaker has the ability to change the rules of the filibuster so long as he determines that sufficient debate has taken place. | |
| And because Senator Julie Slama brought an amendment up on a bill last night, it was debated for a few hours. | |
| And so he could essentially change the filibuster rules to say, you know, they've already debated on this. | |
| We can change it to X number of hours and then put it up for a vote as well. | |
| So, I mean, the reason I ask this, Malia, is this, you know how important this is. | |
| You're on the front lines. | |
| We've been texting like crazy. | |
| She does a great job. | |
| And this is turning points best in Nebraska, really incredible. | |
| Nebraska Freedom Coalition, they do a great job. | |
| Is that when we wanted to get a Supreme Court justice, McConnell, he got rid of filibuster. | |
| And so there's a precedent. | |
| So this speaker of the house, Arch, and again, we need to fact check it. | |
| He potentially could waive the cloture rule and just go to an up or down majority vote. | |
| I know that's unprecedented. | |
| I know I don't need a lecture on precedence from all these people, but is it possible? | |
| So from what I have been told, we'd have to, again, resort to what the rules are outlined on the page of the state legislature. | |
| But the speaker does have the ability to change the rules. | |
| Yes. | |
| Yeah. | |
| I mean, so here we go. | |
| That's another path. | |
| I know that's unprecedented and all this, but I just, Malia, where does this come from? | |
| This whole idea, I just help me understand. | |
| We got the eyes of the nation. | |
| We've got millions of people watching. | |
| We got emails that are flooding in. | |
| This is the number one news story on the planet. | |
| And we're told, oh, just next election cycle. | |
| What is going on here? | |
| So we have a big problem in Nebraska where people are just very complacent. | |
| They're very comfortable. | |
| They think, oh, you know, Nebraska, nice. | |
| We're this deep red state. | |
| We, nothing from the coasts are touching us. | |
| And they're just completely oblivious to what's actually happening on the ground. | |
| Now, over the past couple of years, we've really seen a groundswell of your average everyday patriots kind of tuning in and paying attention. | |
| Last legislative session was absolutely unprecedented in the pieces of legislation that we were able to bring forward and get passed. | |
| So the energy is there. | |
| But the issue is that we don't have the elected officials that are able to harness that energy and utilize it to their advantage, which is kind of what you've been seeing and getting frustrated with. | |
| So I mean, let's just, let's just say hypothetical. | |
| Okay, so I can understand the argument. | |
| You don't want to remove the filibuster while this session happens. | |
| The governor calls a special session and the speaker of the house temporarily removes the filibuster rule for one vote. | |
| They do the up or down vote. | |
| You have the votes. | |
| Thanks so much, guys. | |
| Special session over. | |
| Why is that so hard? | |
| Simply because so many Republicans don't want to go against the status quo. | |
| They're uncomfortable with change. | |
| They don't want to rock the vote. | |
| They see everyone as their friendly colleagues. | |
| You have Julie Slama and Michaela Kavanaugh saying they trust each other on the floor. | |
| They don't understand where we're at. | |
| They don't know what time it is. | |
| Yeah, they don't know what time it is. | |
| I mean, just, I mean, I'm just kind of speechless here. | |
| I mean, is Nebraska somehow not affected by like Joe Biden's terror campaign against the country? | |
| I just, so let's bring together, I don't want to be too preemptive here because here's my other holding out hope that I know that there's a lot of disagreements with the governor on certain stuff and Senator Ricketts, but they've both voiced support. | |
| And the eyes of the nation are now counting on them to get this done, not pun it to another cycle. | |
| Do you think that if Senator Ricketts and Governor Pillen really put some muscle behind this, it could potentially move some votes to get this thing done? | |
| I think that they absolutely could. | |
| They do have a lot of influence over the people that are currently in the legislature. | |
| And if, again, we don't need 33 votes for on the bill itself. | |
| We just need 33 votes for cloture. | |
| So if we can get a few of those people that are on the fence, say, look, we don't know what you want here. | |
| We don't know what your game plan is, but you can vote no on the bill. | |
| We just need you to come together for a cloture, especially for Senator McDonald, who just switched to the Republican Party. | |
| Like we welcomed you with open arms when the entire Democrat Party turned their back on you. | |
| Give us a sign of good faith here. | |
| You don't have to vote for the bill, but let's put it up to a vote. | |
| Yeah, exactly. | |
| So then let's go through the names. | |
| So how many people do we have to block to say no to cloture currently in Nebraska? | |
| We need to switch three votes. | |
| And from what I am hearing, that is Senator Tom Brandt, Senator Mike McDonnell, and the third is up in the air. | |
| I've heard a lot of different names. | |
| But from what it seems to be is Senator Merv Reapey, who has kind of flopped on a few other votes in the past. | |
| He is a Republican. | |
| He has voiced support for this bill already. | |
| But he is also one of the ones that his name's been thrown around. | |
| Got it. | |
| And so if that doesn't happen, we just have to go to plan B, which is then to say, hey, Mr. Speaker, you can remove the filibuster, which he's probably unlikely to do. | |
| Then plan C is call a special session. | |
| And no one knows if the filibuster exists in the special session or not. | |
| But plan C is, okay, even if they have the filibuster in the special session and we're in the special session and we have the filibuster, then just wait it out. | |
| Just be like, hey, we're going to keep, we're going to do a vote carousel. | |
| We're going to do it like the Speaker of the House with Kevin McCarthy and Speaker Johnson. | |
| We're going to go all night, all day, and just every time, just, and then the constituents will get engaged and get involved. | |
| So what is just, I, I want, Malia, you spend a lot of time with the people of Nebraska, not the politicians. | |
| The people are some of the greatest in the country. | |
| They're patriotic. | |
| Absolutely. | |
| They're faithful fighters. | |
| Why, why are their leaders saying we have to wait till next year and we should just let Joe Biden become president? | |
| Again, I think it just stems down to the fact that they're so complacent. | |
| They're so comfortable. | |
| They're so afraid of rocking the boat and going against the status quo. | |
| We have a unicameral, so we only have one house in the body. | |
| And the second house really is the people of Nebraska. | |
| That's what we always tout. | |
| And when we lobby together, we really have accomplished some amazing things. | |
| We were able to call for a special session to vote against the vaccine mandates that went through successfully. | |
| Let me interrupt. | |
| So there's been special sessions called recently. | |
| Yes. | |
| Okay, so it's not unprecedented. | |
| So how many special sessions have been called recently in the last five years? | |
| I'm not sure. | |
| I'm not sure about how many, but I know the last big one was definitely the vaccine mandates one. | |
| And we had over a thousand people show up on the steps of the Capitol and demand that they call a special session. | |
| And as that was happening. | |
| We're going to have to do that again. | |
| Sorry to interrupt, Malia, but you know, hey, what if we get 2,000 people to demand for a special session? | |
| And I get Don Jr. and all this. | |
| We have our event next week. | |
| I'll come back the next week. | |
| I'll come back the next week after that. | |
| I mean, this is not child's play. | |
| We're not dealing with happy talk. | |
| And they're not used to this. | |
| No, well, I'm not used to this whole thing. | |
| And the whole thing is just something. | |
| Malia, stay right there. | |
| She's a superstar. | |
| So that's great news. | |
| So in 2021 or whatever, a thousand people go to the Capitol and they get a special session. | |
| So, okay. | |
| Let's say it fails through all this stuff. | |
| We have our event next week. | |
| Then we'll schedule another event the week after that. | |
| I'll try to bring out Don Jr. | |
| We'll try to bring out the whole folks and we'll try to do a whole thing at the Capitol. | |
| Now, our event next week is in Omaha, where some of the swing districts are. | |
| But if I have to come back to Nebraska, I will. | |
| We're just going to keep on increasing the intensity here. | |
| Look, the only way is forward or through. | |
| I know that some people say, oh, you know, I want my country back. | |
| You take your country back. | |
| It doesn't come to you out of the skies like some stork drops your country at your doorstep. | |
| Here's your country. | |
| You got to take it back. | |
| You got to seize it. | |
| You got to use political power. | |
| Hey there, investing feels overwhelming right now, doesn't it? | |

| Malia is with us. | |
| She's great. | |
| And I know we're dedicating a lot of time to Nebraska. | |
| And unapologetically, this is this, look, we could talk about, you know, Ukraine and all that stuff. | |
| We got civilizational defining stuff right now. | |
| And we're right over the target. | |
| So here's the one, two, three list. | |
| And Malia, correct me if I'm wrong. | |
| Number one is let's try to get this done by getting culture switching over. | |
| Let's try to get that over, right? | |
| Let's try to get culture switching, which is going to be tough, right? | |
| It is, it's going to be tough, but we could try to do that. | |
| And, but that's, that is the path of least resistance right now. | |
| That right there. | |
| The second option is let's nicely request, hey, governor, can you please do a special session on this if the session ends, right? | |
| And then the third one is we go do the largest capital event in history and do what they try to do. | |
| So tell me the story about the vaccine mandates. | |
| I think that actually is a really interesting precedent. | |
| Yeah. | |
| So this was in 2022, I believe. | |
| And they were, you know, they were still trying to pass all this crazy vaccine mandates between the hospital systems and even private, private practices and things like that. | |
| And there really was a big medical freedom movement swell in Nebraska that brought out a lot of grassroots and people who had not previously been engaged. | |
| So we really capitalized on that. | |
| We coordinated with a lot of other grassroots organizations and the state grassroots leaders. | |
| And we, on a day, and it was cold. | |
| I know that it was in like the middle of winter. | |
| And we had over a thousand people show up on the steps of the Capitol. | |
| We had people emailing their senators. | |
| And we had two legislative aides come out from the Capitol that day, hand us a handwritten note and say the session's being called. | |
|
Calling a Special Session
00:04:59
|
|
| And so senators can forward a special session. | |
| Or the governor can as well. | |
| So say that again. | |
| I'm sorry, I interrupted you. | |
| The second part, who else can call a special session? | |
| The senators can call for a special session. | |
| 80% vote or something, right? | |
| I'm not sure. | |
| I know that you have to have one senator to call it. | |
| And I think there has to be another one of support. | |
| And then they do have to vote on it. | |
| Yes. | |
| I'm not sure on the numbers on it, but the senators can call. | |
| So it's 80% to extend. | |
| We'll find the exact numbers. | |
| So it could be the governor or it could be this. | |
| So we're not. | |
| So since we are now of the mentality, we're not going to take no for an answer. | |
| We are not going to allow that. | |
| So, okay, let's just say the session evaporates and you guys didn't have priority. | |
| The next moment that constitutionally provided session is over, we want to go into special session. | |
| And so any senator could propose it. | |
| Does it require the filibuster rules or is an up or down vote? | |
| Or we'll have to look into that. | |
| I think it still requires the filibuster rules. | |
| We'll have to check on that. | |
| But to my knowledge, the filibuster rules are applicable to every session, every vote. | |
| So then the governor can still call the session outside of the vote to get a session. | |
| Is that correct? | |
| He could just unilaterally call a session, right? | |
| Yes. | |
| So that would be the easier way to do it. | |
| Yes. | |
| And he can do it without having the votes for cloture. | |
| But historically, they haven't done so because it uses a lot of taxpayer dollars to cause or to call for a special session. | |
| Well, yeah, I mean, saving the country might cost you a couple bucks, right? | |
| I think people would likely be okay with that. | |
| So the filibuster rules are not infinite. | |
| It just requires waiting them out. | |
| So if they have only one bill to pass, but they still have to get 33 for cloture. | |
| That's why I'm not. | |
| So, but if it's one bill, can't you just wait it out? | |
| So the way that it works is depending on the round of debate that it's in, it can be if the speaker doesn't change it, it's eight hours, four hours, or two hours of filibuster, depending on the round. | |
| At the end, they can run out the clock. | |
| At the end of the clock, they have to vote on cloture and they need 33 votes for cloture. | |
| If they don't attain that 33 votes, then the bill dies. | |
| Yeah, I just, that rule seems so silly to me. | |
| Just you got to change that rule. | |
| I just, it doesn't make any sense to me. | |
| Why in a red state would we have such a rule like that to give such a power to the minority? | |
| See, and that's something that the grassroots have really been pushing for quite a few years now is trying to get that changed because that's one of the reasons that we can't get anything passed. | |
| This year has been one of the first years where we've had a, quote, Republican majority. | |
| That's with Senator McDonald switching his voter registration yesterday. | |
| And even still, as you're seeing, we're struggling to attain that 33 stronghold vote. | |
| It is remarkable. | |
| Okay, Malia, a final marching hours here, orders. | |
| We are on the case. | |
| What are the following marching orders? | |
| So if everyone can reach out to Senator McDonnell and Senator Grant and encourage them, even if they don't want to vote for the bill itself, vote yes on cloture. | |
| Put it up for vote in the legislature on the floor. | |
| We'll pass it without them. | |
| Additionally, we have a rally with you coming up on Tuesday. | |
| We'll have some America first candidates. | |
| Dan Fry, he will be there. | |
| He's running for CD2. | |
| He is an amazing candidate. | |
| He has been all over this while other congressional candidates have been pretty quiet about this. | |
| So he'll be there as well. | |
| And we want all hands on deck. | |
| We want everybody involved. | |
| Reach out to Speaker Arch. | |
| Ask him to prioritize this, whether it's the bill, whether it's the amendment, and encourage him to change the rules on the filibuster. | |
| See you next week, Malia. | |
| Thanks so much. | |
| We talk about all the problems of the country, and I'm a solution guy. | |
| Solution, solution, solution. | |
| And we have this opportunity for a solution. | |
| And we got to seize it. | |
| Yeah, it might be unprecedented or whatever. | |
| Imagine if we just, I mean, imagine if at turning point, I just said, well, I don't know if we could do that. | |
| You know, here's a good one. | |
| Imagine if we just said back in October, well, I guess Rana's just going to be chair forever. | |
| You know, maybe we can get rid of her in the future. | |
| And we were relentless on that. | |
| It wasn't just because of us. | |
| There were other groups too. | |
| President Trump deserves credit. | |
| But according to the Associated Press, they said we get 10% credit for getting rid of Rana. | |
| All right, 10% credit. | |
| I'll take it. | |
| You got to be relentless. | |
| And I don't know if the Nebraska folks know just how relentless the turning point team could be on this stuff. | |
| And relentless is not a bad thing. | |
| It's just, we're just not going to stop talking about it. | |
| All right. | |
| And it's not about credit. | |
| All right. | |
| I don't care about that. | |
| I want to win. | |
| You know who deserves credit? | |
| The governor deserves credit. | |
| President Trump deserves credit, especially if we're able to get this thing across the finish line. | |
| Hey, everybody, Charlie Kirk here. | |
| We're all getting the sense that we're being lied to. | |
| Well, that's because we are. | |
| Suspicious events are unfolding. | |
| Even worse, it's hard to believe what anyone has to say about it. | |
| And we all know the mainstream media has their own agenda. | |
| That's why you need to trust your gut and take action. | |
| It's time to prepare. | |

| There's very few people that are heroes in this country that deserve that title. | |
| I have become an admirer of the tenacity and of the courage of this individual, Chloe Cole. | |
| Chloe Cole is a victim, and I don't use that term lightly. | |
| She's a victim of the transgender industry, the assembly line, the conveyor belt. | |
| They put her through it. | |
| They butchered her. | |
| And Chloe Cole is one of the most outspoken detransitioners that talks about how the transgender industry harmed her. | |
| And she speaks for the welfare of children across this country. | |
| I'm going to play cut 91 of Chloe Cole telling part of her story, in particular in regards to Disney. | |
| Let's play cut 91. | |
| I am Chloe Cole, patient advocate for do no harm, a group that seeks accountability in the medical profession. | |
| I am presenting proposal number seven titled Report on Gender Transitioning Compensation and Benefits, sponsored by National Legal and Policy Center. | |
| Disney pays for gender transition interventions, but not detransitioning care. | |
| Therefore, the company discriminates based on gender identity under EEOC regulations. | |
| I speak from personal experience as someone who was deceived and physically harmed at a young age by gender ideology, validated by the medical industry and pushed to the masses by corporations like Disney. | |
| Disney has become the Ursula that is stealing the voices of thousands of little aerials across the world by telling us that we can be something that we can never become. | |
| The lawsuits are coming, sir. | |
| It's only a matter of time before current or past employees whose bodies and lives have been irreversibly harmed will show up at your door looking for justice and restitution. | |
| Chloe Cole is with us now. | |
| Chloe, welcome to the program. | |
| Tell us what you are doing with Disney, and thank you for your courage. | |
| Thank you for having me, Charlie. | |
| So the National Legal and Policy Center gave me the opportunity to speak at their annual shareholder meeting, which the NLPC is a shareholder. | |
| So that means that they get to propose these measures. | |
| And they gave me the opportunity to present this measure to cover insurance for detransitioning measures like they do with these gender interventions. | |
| So Disney, so Disney pays for gender interventions for the transgender care, but not for detransitioning. | |
| And then they voted this down. | |
| Now, this was a very high-profile Disney shareholder meeting, largely because there was an effort to try to get rid of Bob Iger as CEO led by Nelson Peltz. | |
| But this was not as reported. | |
| Disney shareholders reject anti-trans policy in high-stakes annual meeting. | |
| Tell us more about it. | |
| Yes, and of course the measure was not passed, but I mainly wanted to raise awareness of the existence of young men and women and boys and girls like me who are harmed by these treatments and end up detransioning, as well as the harms of this ideology to corporate America. | |
| So Chloe, tell our audience about your story and about how you were captured into the transgender butchering industry and the damage it did to you and why you continue to speak out about this topic. | |
| So my experience with gender ideology began when I was about 12 years old. | |
| I started feeling after years of experiencing autistic symptoms, of going through an early puberty and having body image disorder, that I just would be happier if I was a boy. | |
| That I wasn't supposed to be born in the body that I was. | |
| And I started calling myself by a boy name. | |
| I started identifying as a boy. | |
| And I was fast-tracked onto the path of medically transitioning at 13 with puberty blockers and testosterone. | |
| And at 15 years old, I underwent a double mastectomy to surgically remove my breasts. | |
| And it took less than a year for me to realize that all of this, every single part of this, I regretted it. | |
| That I wanted my breasts back, that I wanted to be able to grow up into a woman, that I wanted to have children of my own. | |
| And just what all this was taking from me. | |
| You were 15 years old when they did a double mastectomy to you under the guise of gender-affirming care? | |
| Yes, it was just the summer after my sophomore year had ended, actually. | |
| And what was the promise that they made to you and these doctors that did that, that you would be happier and more comfortable in your own body? | |
| Yes, the idea was that I would be closer to this identity that I had as my true self, as a man, through undergoing these treatments. | |
| So now you have lifelong irreversible damage because of this. | |
| And I know you're on the forefront. | |
| Is there a way we can legally hold these butchers accountable? | |
| And do you feel as if you were lied to by the American medical industry? | |
| I absolutely was lied to. | |
| My entire family was lied to. | |
| There was no way that I could actually become a man through undergoing these treatments that would modify my body. | |
| I would only become a woman with less parts and less function in my body. | |
| And they told my mother and father that there was no other choice for me. | |
| They were not given any other choice, not even to allow me to just grow up fully as a woman. | |
| They were told that I would be at risk of committing suicide when I had not had been suicidal at all before. | |
| And we have to hold these doctors accountable by introducing legislation to protect children and also through the lawsuits against these doctors. | |
| Yes. | |
| Are you involved in any current lawsuits against the doctors that did you harm? | |
| Yes, I filed suit against my doctors who were involved in my transition and Kaiser Permanente, which was my healthcare provider. | |
| What is the status of that legal complaint? | |
| Right now, we are still in the preparatory phases. | |
| Well, I'm glad you're doing that. | |
| And so, I mean, these doctors, when they go through it and they remove your breasts and they put you on these chemical castration drugs, they say that's the only option. | |
| What about watchful waiting? | |
| You know what watchful waiting? | |
| You know what it is. | |
| Most gender-confused children grow out of it. | |
| Landmark 15-year study concludes, as critics say it shows, being trans is usually just a phase for kids. | |
| So, Chloe, we are butchering our children because of a social contagion. | |
| I mean, it absolutely is a social contagion. | |
| It's the amount of children, particularly young girls who have been referred to gender clinics, has increased exponentially just within the last decade by about 2,000 to 4,000%. | |
| We need, it's obvious that the cure is just puberty. | |
| By allowing these kids to grow up without any intervention, without modifying their bodies, they will grow out of this. | |
| They will be okay. | |
| They deserve to know that they are okay as they were born, that the way that they're made is beautiful, that that is a gift. | |
| And by changing that, we are not allowing them to accept themselves. | |
| And it is so the part you also mentioned, which is so cruel. | |
| I hope people understand how widespread this is, by the way. | |
| This is happening to tens of thousands of families. | |
| And there's easily over 100,000 that are on hormone blockers or cross-hormone therapy on testosterone replacement therapy. | |
| But the blackmail is a real thing where parents are said your kid is going to kill themselves if they don't get butchered. | |
| Yet, according to a new study, attempted suicide rates more than double after gender reassignment surgery. | |
| It's the opposite, actually, Chloe. | |
| Your thoughts? | |
| I mean, I had only, I was not suicidal at all until after I had been put on these treatments. | |
| And it was after that I realized that this could potentially have taken away my ability to have kids, that I had lost years of my life off of my adolescence, which should have been some of my best years, that I became intensely suicidal. | |

Overcoming Republican Malaise

|
|
| Yes, I just, it is, it's, here's some of the numbers. | |
| Rates of attempted suicide who identified as transgender more than doubled after receiving a vangioplasty, surgically turned one's private part into a vagina, according to a peer-reviewed study published in the Journal of Urology. | |
| It's remarkable. | |
| Chloe, final thoughts here. | |
| What are, how could people support you and get behind the great work that you're doing? | |
| So I'm active on Twitter and Instagram, and I also run a YouTube channel where I'm conducting interviews of other men and women who have detentioned as well. | |
| And my username on all those platforms is the same. | |
| It's C-H-O-O-C-O-L-E. | |
| C-H-O-O-O-C-O-L-E. | |
| Chloe, keep fighting. | |
| You're a hero. | |
| I know you receive a lot of death threats and a lot of opposition for what you're doing, but please continue fighting and God bless you. | |
| Thank you, Charlie. | |
| Thank you. | |
| Here she is at 12 years old, started to get put through the factory, the assembly line. | |
| At 15, they put her down under general anesthesia to remove her breasts. | |
| She still has gaping holes in her chest. | |
| This is so cruel. | |
| And Gavin Newsom, Gretchen Whitmer, Governor Inslee, they're all in support of this. | |
| Zero speed bumps, no questions asked. | |

| I want to just, I don't do this as fear-mongering. | |
| But if you live in Nebraska right now, or if you're in the Nebraska legislature, what would you tell your kids if all of a sudden the breaking news alerts come? | |
| Donald Trump wins the state of Ohio. | |
| Donald Trump wins the state of Iowa. | |
| Donald Trump wins the state of North Carolina. | |
| Donald Trump wins the state of Florida. | |
| Donald Trump flips the state of Georgia. | |
| Donald Trump flips the state of Arizona. | |
| Donald Trump flips the state of Nevada. | |
| Joe Biden wins Pennsylvania and Joe Biden wins Michigan and Joe Biden wins Wisconsin. | |
| And they'll have that news alert across screen that Joe Biden is reelected with an electoral vote of 270 to 268. | |
| But what if I told you that exact same outcome, that exact same result could happen if Nebraska were to change their rules? | |
| We'll get them next time. | |
| There's a low energy malaise that has infected the Republican Party that doesn't play to win. | |
| I will say this, though. | |
| You know, this is not even from Bush. | |
| This is from something else. | |
| And I know we have a call rove tape that we want to play here. | |
| Dick Cheney would have got this done. | |
| Let me say that again. | |
| Dick Cheney would have got this done. | |
| Dick Cheney played to win. | |
| Dick Cheney played for keeps. | |
| Dick Cheney would have had his whole political operation out in Lincoln. | |
| They would have been playing hardball, hard to the wall, getting it done. | |
| They wouldn't have been messing around. | |
| And so, look, I got a lot of stuff going on. | |
| I got a little one at home. | |
| I got 450 employees. | |
| We got 300,000 donors. | |
| We got three hours of radio here. | |
| I'm not saying this to complain, but we have the event now. | |
| We're going. | |
| We're going to Nebraska next week. | |
| We have it all announced. | |
| We're going to be promoting it. | |
| I'm going to do this intentionally to provoke you, but I hope every lawmaker in Nebraska watches this tape right here of this grandma that very well might go to federal prison because she walked into the Capitol on January 6th. | |
| And every lawmaker in Nebraska, are you guys comfortable with more of this happening? | |
| It's in your hands potentially. | |
| Play cut 94. | |
| My own country is treating me like a criminal because I believe that my, they stole my rightful president. | |
| And just standing up for my country, it makes me a criminal. | |
| That's not right. | |
| It feels so weird to be here. | |
| Over three years ago, I was here. | |
| Her country is treating her like a criminal, but you know what? | |
| I'll be honest, the Republican Party doesn't have her back yet. | |
| It should, and it can. | |
| We don't treat illegals like the criminals that they are, but we treat our MAGA grannies, the grandmothers that went into the Capitol nonviolently. | |
| We treat them like they're terrorists. | |
| We need a complete and total mindset shift in the Republican Party. | |
| We need to change our perspective, change our attitude. | |
| Because I'll be honest, you want to know why we're losing the country. | |
| We are not losing the country because of George Soros. | |
| We are not losing the country because of Barack Obama. | |
| We're not, no, no, no. | |
| We're losing the country because the Republican Party has an attitude of losing, has an attitude of defeat, has an attitude of surrender. | |
| And we're here to try to lead a right-wing revolution. | |
| I understand what we've tried to do this week is historic, unprecedented, accelerated, but here we are. | |
| This attitude that we're going to try again next year, cut that out. | |
| That is not how Americans think. | |
| We have a grittiness. | |
| We have a resolve. | |
| We have a solution-focused can-do attitude in this country that we could do anything that we put our mind to. | |
| Anything. | |
| We're the toughest in the world. | |
| We need our leaders to start to reflect that. | |
| That urgency is necessary. | |
| So we're not going to lay off. | |
| We are going to be relentless. | |
| Okay, the bill might fail. | |
| We're going to do it again. | |
| Oh, the bill might fail, special session. | |
| Oh, they're not going to call it rally on the Capitol. | |
| Oh, they're going to ignore us. | |
| 2,000 people. | |
| Oh, they're going to ignore us again. | |
| Try to get Trump involved. | |
| Okay, we're going to keep on upping the ante. | |
| We've just started to fight because this country is worth it. | |
