- Welcome day friends.
Welcome, welcome.
We are still basking in the glow of the victory in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
Additionally, good news finally coming out of the John Durham investigation.
The individual who was the key source for the propaganda file that became the Steele dossier, Igor Danchenko, has been arrested.
So we shall see Whether it leads to anything more significant higher up the chain in that propaganda production.
But for right now, things are moving even here in the swamp.
New Jersey has been called.
It was such a tight race they will have to have some kind of audit.
Sadly the incumbent Murphy has been declared the winner.
But the President of the Assembly, Steve Sweeney, has been defeated by a truck driver who spent $153 on his campaign.
So we can celebrate that.
We're also going to celebrate opening the show with one of your favorite guests.
I don't think we've done this before, but today we are.
Victor Davis Hanson, senior fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University and author.
Most recent.
So many things.
Anything with his name on it, buy it.
But the dying citizen out now.
Follow him at VD Hanson.
Professor Hanson, welcome to America First.
Thank you for having me again, Seth.
So much to discuss.
Personal news on your front with regards to a very storied conservative publication.
But let's talk about the events in Virginia of the last few days.
My take is the following.
I would like you to be the sanity check for this.
We have seen 9 out of 10 of the analyses post the Janken victory have been incredibly sophomoric, Very, very simplistic.
Basically, half of them said, this is an indictment of Donald Trump because Junkin isn't Trump.
And the other half said, this is a victory for Trump because he's just like Trump and critical race theory, etc, etc.
I think the truth lies somewhere in between.
A very cautious candidate who didn't go full America first, however embraced a culture war issue much like President Trump, which propelled him to the top of the ticket.
Who is to blame or who gets the credit for this massive upset victory, Professor?
I think you have it right, Seb.
I think he ran more successfully, or at least as successfully, in those red counties of Virginia than Trump did.
He was able to get the base.
He was able to keep the base because Trump endorsed him.
And he didn't, on no issue, did he disagree with the Trump MAGA agenda.
He might have downplayed abortion in the particular suburbs, but he didn't.
And he thanked Trump that he won.
He said that, I appreciate that.
But Trump made it easier for him because, let's face it, this ostracism of Trump on social media boomeranged against Silicon Valley.
Because Trump found out that when he wasn't commenting on personalities every day, that in time people are remembering his record and not what he tweeted.
And his tweets bothered some people, some people they encouraged.
But the point I'm making is people looked at Biden's disastrous first nine and a half months and they've said, this was all self-created.
It's the opposite of what Trump did.
So Trump's stature has risen.
The more, I don't know how to say it, because it's a contradiction or paradox, the more remote.
It's almost as if Trump is everywhere in the mind of the Democrats, but he's nowhere on social media.
So he's a presence, but he's not a presence.
And it works to his advantage.
And it made it much easier for Youngton, because nobody came up to him and said, well, this is what Trump said about Anthony Fauci, that he throws like a girl.
What do you think?
And he just referenced Trump in relation to all the good things Trump did.
So it worked out well for both of them.
And I think it also teaches the Republicans that, let's face it, they have not won 51% of the popular vote since 1988.
33 years.
They have lost seven out of the eight last popular votes.
And whether we like it or not, as conservatives, they've got to get that extra two to 3% that they keep coming up short.
And Youngkin did it without Without renouncing, as some people do, the Trump agenda.
And he was fiery.
He took it on.
He was like DeSantis and giving no quarter.
But what he didn't do was he didn't go down cul-de-sac.
He just kept focused.
So I think the message for a Tom Cotton or Pompeo or DeSantis or Donald Trump, if he should win, is you've got the right agenda.
You've got the anger.
But when you focus, you want to get even rather than just mad.
Get even with it.
To quote the title of a very famous book from the 1970s, Don't Get Mad, Get Even.
That takes me back, Professor.
I see what you did there.
Let's talk about the campaign specifics and whether or not they provide a roadmap for the next year or for 2024.
So we had Glenn Youngkin on the show.
It was hard to get him on because everybody knows who I am and who I worked for.
And this is a very America First show.
And so his advisors, at least, were very leery.
He came on and acquitted himself well and almost at exactly the same time about three and a half weeks ago as the school board meetings were continuing in Loudoun County in Virginia in Fairfax as these women were taking the fight to these bigots on the boards There was a switch in his campaign, Professor.
He'd been very much the businessman who's going to get business back to work in Virginia.
No mandates, opening up things.
And then, as you say, he very robustly picked up this issue, which had nothing to do with business.
This is about schools, CRT, bigotry, and he ran with it.
He embraced it full-throatedly.
Do we have to be cautious about drawing too many conclusions, or is it?
Yes, but with one qualifier.
out now demonstrable that the person who picks up the culture war baton may be able to win against any Democrat?
Yes, but with one qualifier, if Joe Biden's agenda, and it was impossible, but let's just imagine that it wasn't impossible.
If all these things Joe Biden had done were very popular and had succeeded, then this school board issue wouldn't have mattered.
He would have lost.
But what he was able to do was in a very subtle way, and that helped Trump and it helped him reciprocally.
He said, when you guys are protesting against the school board and Merrick Garland sicks the FBI on you as domestic terrorists, that is indicative of a larger problem.
We're dealing with it in Virginia.
But this is the tentacles, but the octopus head is this period we're in of critical race theory, of this new sort of called anti-racism, racism.
So what he was able to do was connect a lot of the anger at the local and regional level with the larger landscape that we're in a woke national mood, and it's destroying us.
And that there's commonalities between what Virginia is doing and New Jersey, And Minneapolis and New York.
And remember, we're talking about blue cities, blue states.
We're not talking about Wyoming and Oklahoma that are given.
So that's what was so remarkable when the left said, well, they give all these reasons.
It doesn't matter.
But they never came to the essential point.
These are your bastions, your strongholds.
And they are deteriorating because a lot of clever independents, conservative Democrats, but mostly Republicans can connect what makes people angry at the grassroots level As the logical fallout from this disastrous national agenda that you've hijacked the presidency and you've pushed through the vessel, an empty vessel of Joe Biden.
And we've only got a minute left in this segment, but Professor Hansel will be with us for another one.
When you hear Democrats afterwards, like Van Jones, call Junkin the disease, the Delta variant of Trumpism, it seems as if the Democrats haven't drawn any of the requisite conclusions.
No, everybody's wrong who says, well, they're going to learn and they're going to adjust, they're going to pivot.
They might say that, but no zealot, no Jacobin, no Bolshevik, no socialist ever says after they lose support, Well, we weren't moderate enough.
They always say it was a lack of extreme zeal.
And that's what they're saying.
We didn't call them racist enough.
They cheated.
This is why we have Professor Hansen on.
This is a historic fact.
The Jacobin, the Soviet communist, the Camarouge, never suddenly says, we were wrong, let's dial it down, guys.
They actually double down and the invective, the vituperation continues.
God bless the Democrats for not drawing the right conclusions.
He's the author of the brand new book, The Dying Citizen.
and we'll be back with Professor Hansen after these messages.
All right.
Thanks.
Mic's on.
Yeah, it is.
So yeah, the mics mics on.
Thank you.
That it is so it's just amusing, isn't it?
That all these articles drawing completely the Oh, it was Trump.
Oh, it wasn't Trump conclusion.
Or the worst is, we didn't get our $5 trillion borrow barrel through a had we got that people would have would want it.
Washington, whenever Washington goes one way, Virginia goes the other or they have everything in the world except no people don't like you and they're not afraid of you anymore they were afraid and now that's it I'm sorry that is so simple I have to write that down they don't like you and they're not afraid that's that that is that is the best summary I've heard so what do you think this means do you think
They double down on the bill and they just ram it through or do they somehow push the radicals down?
They'll try.
They'll try to go to Sinema or Manskin or any of these people and say, the fallout from us is going to be worse than the fallout from your constituency because we're going to make life hell.
And we'll see.
They're going to I mean, those people are not principled senators.
No.
And they're going to find out where.
But I think that The referendum is, if they vote for this, they will not be re-elected.
Because people are angry, it's growing.
So I think they're going to stop a lot of, I don't know, I wish they would stop it all, but they probably won't.
But I like the idea, they're so stupid, the left, that they think that that's why they lost, because they didn't get to borrow $5 billion.
Yeah, no, I think that's the conclusion they're drawing.
How's the book doing?
It's, you know, they, after two weeks, they finally released it, and it was on the, New York bestseller list for four weeks until this week, but then the publisher called yesterday and said, wow, you've sold 9,000 this week.
And the number six on the New York times, according to book scans is number is selling eight and number 15 is selling four.
So you've outsold all the books on the New York, like you did the first three weeks at number six, but now you're a number 16.
You're not on it, but they can't figure that out.
It's such a scam.
When my publisher, I was writing my second book and I got this email from my publisher Regnery who said, my first book was a New York Times bestseller and I got this email which said, from this day forward we inform all our authors, even if you make it to the New York Times bestseller list, we are not going to put that on the cover of your book because it's all a scam and it's all rigged.
I was shocked and then I did a little bit of research and I realized they're absolutely right.
They have some logarithm, they said.
They tally in things like book reviews.
Book reviews from New York Times in New York.
So that's how they do it.
But in terms of sales, it's been selling right around 12,000 to 9,000 a week for the first four weeks.
I'm happy with that.
Congratulations.
Congratulations.
But you never know from the New York Times this week.
Um, will you come in with the mansion cut?
Cut 13.
Cut 13, come in with mansion.
Okay, coming in with cut 13.
35 seconds.
Oh no!
Biden!
8.
Biden cut 8.
Okay, liner and then Biden cut 8.
Yes, thank you.
All right.
Okay.
25 seconds.
Standing by.
Okay.
40 seconds later.
Thank you.
This is America First, and here's your host, Dr. Sebastian Gorka.
Do you think that Terry McAuliffe would have won if your agenda had passed before Election Day?
Well, I think we should have passed before Election Day, but I'm not sure that I would be able to have changed the number of very conservative folks who turned out and The red districts who were Trump voters, but maybe, maybe.
No, I know we did, but I, we'd also, I was running against Donald Trump.
That is the man who bears the title of president's interpretation of the victory.
It was just, it wasn't my fault.
It was just, uh, young, immobilized people, nothing to do with issues at all.
God bless you.
Keep thinking that we are back with none other than Victor Davis Hanson, author, Brand new book.
Whatever he writes, buy it.
But the new one is The Dying Citizen, in addition to the case for Trump that is more relevant than ever.
And so excited.
I've been behind the scenes.
I've been wanting this to happen for a long, long time.
Not only is he now the distinguished fellow at the Center for American Greatness, where he writes regularly.
You've got to read those articles.
Is it true, Professor Hanson, that you no longer write for the National Review, something I was hoping you would decide to do for the last few months?
You know, that's a very strange thing.
I actually left on January 1 of almost a year ago, but I write a syndicated column that they picked up And so until a few weeks ago, months ago, they it was almost people would say to me, why are you writing when you left your big column I wrote to a week?
And I said, I don't I can't control the number of people who want to subscribe to the column.
But finally, I think we worked out a thing where they're not subscribing for I'm not writing it.
I mean, they're not picking up anything I write, and we're not associated anymore.
I think this is a fascinating thing we have to dwell on for a moment, because this isn't Buckley's National Review.
Could you talk to us about What they got wrong, and why you're not sad not to be published by them, and what happened to this, you know, this absolute pillar of conservative thought?
I don't know.
I have a lot of close friends there.
I was there 20 years, and I owe a debt of gratitude in many ways.
But I had warned them, and we disagreed about it, that 90% of their own agendas were championed by Donald Trump.
And their argument that he was so crude and uncouth, I asked for empirical proof to tell me about the private life or the office, White House life of LBJ or JFK or Bill Clinton to show me that Trump was cruder.
And so I didn't get an adequate answer.
And then there were the Covington kids things, the Access Hollywood stuff that, and you know, lately, you know, Trump is a monkey in a helicopter or Rush Limbaugh was a, you know, after he died, there was a column about, so we disagreed, but my biggest disagreement was I said that after the election was over, that Biden would be so bad.
And so predictably bad that they would be in a situation where they would end up as some of their fiercest critics, which would beg the question.
Well, if you agree, he's so bad.
And there was a way to stop him being so bad.
Why didn't the magazine take that option?
And I couldn't get an adequate response to that.
So they're kind of a strange... I welcome the fact that they've been really hard on Biden's disastrous agenda, but it just leaves this question.
They're very intelligent people.
Why didn't they understand when people were begging them to see that that was inevitable if you sat out the election or you voted for Biden?
And And then you're going to have a credibility problem when your readers are suddenly told, you know, the Biden foreign policy is awful.
The Biden tax thing is terrible.
The Biden energy is terrible.
The Biden border is terrible.
The critical race thing is terrible.
The Biden idea on abortion is terrible.
Well, yeah, because they're antithetical to all the positions that you rejected because they had Trump's fingerprints on them.
How much of this attitude from not only the National Review Stalwarts, but from the so-called never-Trump-er conservatives, is that this is the first president in modern history who just He wasn't interested in being approved or getting the stamp of approval from these individuals with decades-long sinecures, and the fact that he very clearly sent a message, I don't need you, and he didn't, and he won.
Is it taking umbrage?
Is it a pride issue?
It's even worse than that.
I mean, and I'm included in there.
He didn't know who we were.
He didn't care.
It wasn't that he didn't like us.
He just thought the world has gone on pretty well for my 73 years.
Whoever these people are, they have zero influence.
I'm still going to get 90% of the Republican party.
And he did.
He didn't lose because there was a big defection.
The only role that the Never Trumpers played is if you make the argument that 45,000 key voters In swing states made the difference and they were moderate suburbanites.
Maybe the never Trumpers had some influence, but otherwise they didn't.
And now there is no term.
I think.
Sebastian, we should not use the word never Trumpers.
It ceased to exist because we learned in the last election that the people who write for the bulwark and other quote unquote, never Trump outlets, they endorse the entire, not just the.
Democratic candidates, but the agendas if you don't read those sites, they are full-fledged a Jennifer Rubin now or Bill Crystal or Charles like they're Unapologetically where they always wanted to be they feel comfortable being Democrats leftists.
I have no problem with that I feel like they're relieved and liberated.
Trump liberated.
Isn't there something also awfully delicious?
I think, you know, Youngkin embraced the culture war.
I think he was encouraged to do so by the citizens of Virginia, the mothers, the parents.
But, in that last week, to have the Lincoln Project, the quote-unquote former Republican strategists, pay for Democrat, Democrat operatives to dress up as Charlottesville white supremacists, one of them being black, I'm not sure how they worked that out, and to stand with their tiki torches, wasn't this the last nail in the coffin that killed organizations like the Lincoln Project?
Especially people who feigned a higher moral ground, that they were so morally superior they couldn't Uh, tarnish themselves by voting for Trump.
And then they were engaging in this cheap stunt that was unethical and amoral.
Yeah.
That whole, and you look at that whole grifting project and the pedophilia charges, and it was all money and how the money was dispersed to their own families and businesses was corrupt from the beginning.
You look where, where the money comes from the never Trumpers.
It comes from the left and the left basically says, we know you're irrelevant, but you're entertaining as a court jester in a medieval court.
So you make fun of the ha-ha-ha, you make fun of the right and we'll pay for that amusement.
But they're not never Trumpers anymore.
They're just new Democrats.
They're neo-Democrats, I guess.
Neoliberals.
I don't know what you'd call them, but nobody believes they're conservative.
And that just raises the question since you refuted every single position that you had before, and you've embraced a far left agenda under Joe Biden.
You were always that way.
It's much easier for you to use Trump as the excuse to gravitate where you wanted to be rather than where you were and felt uncomfortable.
So I feel they came out of the closet and it's good for them.
They'll be more honest, but nobody should make the mistake of thinking they're conservative.
I think there's one adjective that fits them perfectly.
Rick Wilson, Steve Schmidt, Galen, the rest of them, and that adjective is irrelevant.
In the meantime, listen to and read somebody who matters, the author of The Dying Citizen, Professor Victor Davis Hanson.
That's fascinating.
I had no idea that they picked up your column, which of course you can't control.
Yeah, for nine months they did.
And they didn't tell people it was syndicated.
And finally, I asked them to stop it.
In fact, I had a year contract.
I had to keep writing it.
But one of the conditions I had was that they not sell it to National Review.
And they had told me they were going to drop it.
They used me as a fundraising.
They would tell people I was still there.
And I got very angry.
I raised a lot of money for them privately, since we're not on the air.
It's Skype.
And they went to those donors behind my back and told them that I was still there and that they were giving me money.
So I got very angry at them.
I bet you did.
Well, I'm glad that you've clarified all of that.
And we are very excited to have you back on the show.
Well, thank you.
Well done.
Bye bye.
All right.
Boyle should be connected.
Yep.
Um, I want to post those separately.
Yeah.
I had no idea.
I kept seeing his articles on review and I thought, what's going on?
And the fact they were buying it without him being able to stop them.
It's ridiculous.
Alright, we should be up.
That tells you everything.
That explains everything.
It does!
Yeah.
It does!
It's who they are!
Test if we can get any audio from... There we go!
Yay!
I don't hear him on my end though.
I'll send it to you via Skype.
How are we doing, Matt?
Doing great.
What a night on Tuesday, huh?
Oh my gosh.
It was almost as good as, like, 2016, right?
It was!
I was so psyched.
I was by myself, smoking cigars, having fun.
It was great.
By the way, I, like, hate-watched Fox News.
Like, it was like I did for MSNBC and CNN.
You mean the only, quote-unquote, conservative TV broadcaster that announced the victory last?
You mean that Fox News?
By the way, Politico announced it before Fox did, right?
That's how embarrassing they are.
By the way, I think that Fox News is in for a serious wakening down the road here, and I think that if it's Newsmax or OANN or something new that may come along, But look, I mean, they're clearly ripe for a real challenge.
They're so comfortable, right?
Like in their, you know, midtown Manhattan studios that somebody needs to come along and really give them a run for their money.
I don't know who it'll be and what it will look like down the road, but like, I just think that it was such an embarrassment the other night.
No, it was.
Like, it was so bad.
Like, it was... what a joke.
It's sad because there's good people there.
I'm going to just unleash you to talk about Virginia, alright?
Got it.
Let's do it.
What else have we got?
America sent a message.
FJB.
That's your title if you want it.
I'll say it on the air.
I think we should come in with 11.
And then I'll do merch.
All right.
Yeah, I can't go downstairs.
Once I go up my stairs, I take my boot off.
I can't go back down the stairs because it'll have to be in crutches.
So I'm sitting there waiting for Fox to call it and I'm like, and then I hear MSNBC called it and I'm sitting in my room like, and Fox still hasn't?
Looking at my phone, I'm like, this is disgusting.
Yeah.
My parents were watching and said Newsmax called it pretty early.
First!
Newsmax called it first.
Breitbart called it before Newsmax.
No, I mean on TV.
No, I know.
We were calling him Governor-Elect since like, I don't know, 30?
Yep, that's where you guys tuned into there.
Standby.
Alright, 15 seconds.
Stand back. Standing back. Standing back.
part by Job Creators Network. - Us on the election front I actually think we have good news as well.
I know that Virginia was a huge bummer.
And honestly, if anything, I think that the results show the limits of trying to run a fully 100% super-moderated campaign that does not excite, speak to, or energize a progressive base.
And frankly, we weren't even really invited to contribute on that race.
She is that dumb.
Congratulations, AOC.
Yeah, Virginia may be a bummer for you, but when you actually conclude that it's because Terry McAuliffe is, what did you say?
100% moderate?
You just keep on believing that, baby.
In the meantime, don't be a dummy like her.
Show your pride in America first.
Don't buy anything from China.
It's almost the season.
Get your gifts for your friends.
Get something for AOC if you know her.

Get your Let's Go Brandon Yard signs.
Let's analyze it all.
What does Commonwealth of Virginia victories like this one, what do they mean?
With a man who is political editor for Washington DC at Breitbart.com, Matt Boyle.
It's a great time to be alive, isn't it?
Wow, what a night on Tuesday night.
It wasn't just Virginia, Dr. G. It was all across America, coast to coast, from Seattle to Minneapolis to Virginia to New Jersey, everywhere in between.
The American people sent a very clear message on election night this year, which is, that message is FJB.
It is let's go, Brandon.
Right.
Like, I mean, that was the message the American people sent.
And so despite the the scorching hot take there from our friend AOC, that that AOC's description of things is not accurate as per usual.
What really is going on here is that the American people can now see that after nearly a year of complete Democrat control in Washington, D.C., the Democrat agenda top to bottom is rotten to its core.
It does not solve any of your problems.
It hurts you.
Electing Democrats hurts your pocketbook.
It hurts your family.
It hurts your public safety.
It hurts your children's future.
It hurts every part of your life.
Whereas electing Republicans who maybe sometimes aren't the most perfect people in the world and I get it that there's plenty of established Republicans out there that still need criticism and we're gonna be continuing to do that but here's the thing the Republicans are so much better and I think that the Republicans learned a lot too right like and you see that from The campaign that Youngkin ran, especially in the final weeks there, I mean, look at what he did with focusing in on critical race there.
Right.
I'm going to ask you, I'm going to get your analysis in the next segment as to why you think he won.
I've given mine.
We just discussed it with Victor Davis Hanson.
But first, let's look at another race.
You said it wasn't just Virginia.
Sadly, they've called it for Murphy.
There's going to be a recount.
But the fact that in a state as Democrat, as new jersey where biden won by 16 points that it came down to a neck and neck race isn't that even more significant than the commonwealth map yeah it's alarm bells are ringing through the democrat party right now and you're already seeing several house democrats talking about leaving their congressional offices and running for other offices or retiring uh and that that parade is going to
Intensify in the coming days and weeks as they all make their plans through the holidays to talk to their families and so on and so forth.
By the beginning of the year, I mean, there's already more than a dozen Democrats that have abandoned ship on Nancy Pelosi already before what happened on Tuesday.
There's going to be dozens more by the beginning of the year.
This is a total disaster and calamity for the Democrats.
But, look, what happened, I mean, look, a truck driver raised $153, by the way, most of which were spent on donuts.
on donuts not television ads or anything like that america runs on donuts matt come on i'm not complaining right america runs on youngin right like but anyway the uh no but like in all seriousness uh a truck driver who raised 153 dollars defeated the the long entrenched career politician one of the most corrupt politicians not in new jersey in america miss miss Mr. Concrete, that's who he is, Sweeney.
We've got the inside dope on that here on America First.
We're going to talk about so much more, but yes, I like that.
I don't know if he came up with it, but America Runs on Yunkins is a funny, funny way to conclude this segment of America First, coming to you live from the ReliefFactor.com studios.
Relief Factor, drug-free pain relief that works, that's real.
That is liberating tens of thousands of Americans from across the country.
People like me.
Yes, I had a lower back pain issue for nine years.
Almost a decade.
I took ReliefFactor two weeks later.
I was pain-free and I'm still pain-free almost three years later.
But it's not just me.
It's people like Alicia from California.
This is Alicia's story.
I'm a grocery store worker and was working doubles during the coronavirus shutdown.
At 52 years old, my two bad knees were not getting a rest.
I literally limped to and from bed.
Two days into relief actor and the pain decreased substantially.
So thankful for this amazing product.
That Could be you.
That should be you.
There's only one way to find out, but it's super easy.
Order the three-week quick starter pack right now at reliefactor.com.
It'll be at your door in three days or less.
Take it morning and evening like I do, and I promise you that's Dr. G's guarantee.
By the end of those three weeks, you will know whether it works for you like it works for me, Alicia, and thousands of your fellow Americans.
Somebody said that to me the other day and I was like, that's a genius line and I'm going to use it on your show.
You should have had that on some kind of campaign thing.
I love it.
It was such a good line, right?
Too much to fit on a sweater vest.
So how important, Jeff, was the fleece vest?
That's a Rick Santorum thing.
It is!
That's what he told me earlier.
I think it was that nice guy all shucks image.
Right, because wearing a suit means you're like a rich guy.
Yeah, exactly.
Like every other hit piece on him said, oh he's trying to make himself out to be like that suburban dad next door neighbor kind of look.
And the vests do contribute to that.
So when I run, what do I wear, Geoff?
You dress the way you do.
That's what I like about Trump too.
He didn't do the stupid jeans.
You don't make it up, right?
Yeah, he didn't go to Iowa and eat wings or whatever, the stupid things they put in your mouth.
I do like condoms, sir.
I well eat a condom.
in his private helicopter.
I do like corn dogs.
And then he took kids around.
By the way, do you remember this from the Iowa State Fair in 2015?
Trump goes and he takes kids up in the air for the helicopter.
And then one of the kids asked him on this video of this, are you Batman?
And Trump goes, I am Batman.
I've got to see that.
I think I do remember that.
You've got to find that for me, Eric.
I'll find it.
I'll send it to you.
I haven't seen that.
Because straight out of the dark night, that helicopter entrance, all he was missing was a few fashion models on his side.
Dr. G, when we get off here, I'll send it to you.
Thank you, buddy.
And Sweeney still hasn't conceded to.
He just said that there's still votes to be counted.
What a scumbag.
No, but even the media called it.
Oh, this is great.
I called him today because I have a cell phone.
He didn't answer.
Are you kidding me?
Yeah, so I texted him.
I said... I said, hi Steve, disregard my phone call.
I dialed you by mistake.
I was trying to get ahold of the Senate President of New Jersey.
Are you joking, Jeff?
No!
No!
Oh my god, that's amazing.
How do you have his number?
From the area and the voicemail.
Because you're from there.
God, that's hilarious.
Jeff...
You're great.
I know you don't do hugs, but you're great.
He's already dead.
He roasted him too hard.
Alright, 45 seconds.
We're coming in with JC and in relief here.
I'm not a big hugger though.
I never understood hugging.
Geoff needs to watch out for concrete trucks outside his home now.
Oh whoops!
We unloaded some concrete on your car.
Very Tony Sopranos-esque.
It's the most corrupt industry there is.
is.
Outside of casinos, it's concrete.
Alright, 25 seconds.
I feel like an airline pilot wasn't a pilot.
Flight of 10, perfect cross check.
Coming in with anything or no?
Alright, stand back.
Stand back.
I know Sebastian well.
Listen to him.
He's with us.
Thank you, Mr. President.
We're back.
It's been a tough couple of years, especially for small business owners.
30% of them are never going to open again.
New mandates, tax increases of almost 30% on them.
What can we do about it?
Well, let's support one organization that's fighting back.
It's the Job Creators Network.
They're looking for a few good men and women to become advocates For the companies that employ more than 60 million Americans.
Join the program today.
They'll train you up.
You'll be a voice for the lifeblood of America.
Go to JobCreatorsNetwork.com.
That's the JobCreatorsNetwork.com today.
We are back with the Washington Political Editor for the most influential conservative news site out there.
It is Breitbart.com and he's Matt Boyle.
I'm going to do exactly what I did with the great Victor Davis Hanson at the top of the show, Matt.
I'm going to test my Commonwealth theory on you.
Tell me what's missing.
Youngkin.
Businessman.
Presentable.
Handsome.
Tall.
Suburban women, I'm sure, liked his clean-cut demeanor.
He ran on a business ticket.
Let's get Virginia back to work.
Let's stop the mandates.
But then he pivots.
He comes on your shows on Breitbart.
He comes on my shows.
He sees what the parents are doing at the school board meetings.
And he embraces the let's destroy the CRT message.
And as a result, for me, Yeah, it might have started off as economics, but this is in the spirit of Andrew Breitbart, Matt.
This is a culture war victory.
Yeah, look, you know who I think said it best, actually?
I was watching Hannity on election night.
The guy you were just talking to.
Well, I was watching Hannity on election night.
Reince Priebus, the former White House Chief of Staff for Trump.
What?
I know, I can't believe I'm saying this, but he actually said, he described Glenn Youngkin as a quote, happy warrior, which is what everybody, that term came from, I saw it on Hannity on election night and I was like, Wow!
I haven't talked to Ryanson forever, by the way.
I texted him afterwards.
I was like, you know, wow, I think you were right about this.
And that's actually what people use to describe Andrew Breitbart, right?
So this is proof that fighting the culture wars is a winner for Republicans.
And look, the left and the establishment media all took the wrong things away from this.
So everything you said there is right.
And I would also add that the establishment media, the left, Terry McAuliffe, all these people tried to make this about Trump or not Trump.
Look, Glenn Youngkin is his own guy.
He ran his own race.
Yes, he and Trump are aligned on a lot of issues.
Yes, Trump supported him.
Yes, Trump didn't go do any events with him because Youngkin wanted to run his own race.
But the idea that there's any division or daylight between them, not true.
And look, Glenn Youngkin did not run the Ed Gillespie campaign.
He did not run the Mitt Romney campaign.
Matt, on what you just said, there's no issue that they disagree on.
Right, that's the point.
They're in complete agreement.
And so their efforts to drive wedges between people and turn this into a cult of personality aren't going to work.
We are a movement of ideas, not a cult of personality.
And yes, Trump is the nominal leader of this movement.
And by the way, I think that the election results across the board in Virginia and everywhere else across America Signal that in addition to the message that the American people sent with FJB and let's go Brandon on election night It was also the beginning of the art of the comeback And so if what happened Tuesday is any signal of what's gonna happen next year in the upcoming midterms I'm sure we're gonna have plenty of time to talk about that over the course of the next year You know plenty of different things stories and interesting stuff happening out there in Georgia and Nevada and right where?
All around America.
But what I'm saying is, you know, this set the stage for big Republican gains in the midterms, and then eventually the end of this era of Joe Biden in the White House and Democrat control in Washington DC in 2024, if and when President Trump runs for office again in 2024 and goes in and crushes these guys and gets his long-awaited second term.
Let's listen to, there seems to be at least one person on the left who may have drawn the requisite conclusions.
Let's get Matt's reaction.
This is James Carville, cut three, play cuts.
What's wrong with this stupid wokeness?
Don't just look at Virginia and New Jersey, look at Long Island, look at Buffalo, look at Minneapolis, even look at Seattle, Washington.
I mean, just defund the police, lunacy, just take Abraham Lincoln's name off of schools.
I mean, people see that, and it's just really have a suppressive effect all across the country.
The Democrats, some of these people need to go to a woke detox center or something.
I mean, they're expressing the language that people just don't use, and there's a backlash and a frustration at that.
So Democrat strategist James Carville on PBS says they need a detox because of the stupid wokeness.
They're not going to draw that conclusion the DNC are they Matt?
Well I certainly hope they don't listen to James Carville because he's a hundred percent correct and wow like I'm shocked that he actually said that stuff but then again he's also the guy who said it's the economy stupid remember that back in the day?
So Carville has his moments and this is one of them where he's right but like frankly I just don't think that the Democrat Party is ready to have that introspective Look and understand that everything they stand for is a lie, a fallacy and wrong.
And it's going to take another shellacking or two before they really do.
You mean Virginia isn't big enough for them?
A slap in the face, a double point?
No, they're already coming up with all sorts of excuses.
They're already coming up with all sorts of excuses.
They're already saying, oh, well, Terry McAuliffe was a... You heard AOC, right?
Until such time as they knock it off with all the crazy leftist stuff, this is going to keep happening to them.
It's going to keep happening to them.
2020 was a fluke for them.
I hope they never learn.
You mentioned there's at least 20 Democrats who are likely going to retire, aren't going to run next year.
Is it significant or am I just wishful thinking that to date Nancy Pelosi has refused to confirm whether she's going to run again, Matt?
I don't know if she intends to run or not.
One would think that the day is fast approaching.
But look, here's the deal.
Paul Ryan, if you remember, in the 2018 midterm cycle, Waited until April 2018 to make his announcement.
So it wouldn't surprise me if she doesn't even wait until then or later next year before she finally decides.
I don't know.
Like, frankly, there's already north of a dozen House Democrats that have headed for the hills.
Republicans only need to flip five net seats to retake the majority.
Nancy Pelosi, if they lose the majority, is not coming back.
She's over 80 years old now.
She's done.
Time to go back to your $100 gallon ice cream, Nancy.
Off you pop, my dear.
In the meantime, follow this man, read his writings, WashingtonPoliticalEditorBreitbart.com.
He's right.
He was a happy warrior, and that's part of why Glenn won in the Commonwealth.
God bless you, Matt.
Keep doing what you do.
I'm Sebastian Gawker.
Your call is next.
Fiery, fiery exchanges on Capitol Hill between Fauci and Senator Rand Paul.
We will be playing some of that for you.

Magnificent.
Hey, I just got an update.
I wasn't looking at my phone as I was talking to Matt Boyle, but he has, I guess it's a promotion, he is now the Bureau Chief for Breitbart in the nation's capital.
We've got to change those chyrons!

Please go there today.
Let's go to the calls.
Let's go down.
Line one, George, Columbus, Ohio.
Hi, Dr. Gorka.
Hey!
How are you?
Good.
I hope Democrats are listening because I have an opinion here.
Go ahead.
Three things that Donald Trump has done that are irreversible at this point.
Number one, he pulled back the curtains just a little bit further for us to see how deep the swamp really was.
Yes.
Number two, He restored faith in elections.
In 2016, when he was elected, the American public has seen that if you vote, you can win.
It's really not that corrupt.
Yeah, and I think that's exactly the lesson from Virginia.
I mean, how many people called into this show and said, I'm not voting again.
They're just going to steal it all.
Well, guess what, George?
We won in Virginia.
Right.
And number three, Going back to this story in Jersey, he showed Americans that you do not have to be a career politician or rich to be able to run for politics and win and make changes.
Yes.
Just like that truck driver in New Jersey.
You nailed it, George.
I love it.
Stay on the line.
Let's give George a Let's Go Brandon hat.
And let's get a line to Eric San Jose.
Welcome aboard.
Dr. Gorka, bless you.
Bless you.
How are you?
Very good.
What brings you to our show?
You've got just over a minute.
I'll be brief.
The homunculus of the Democratic Party has spoken and it's time for the bottom of its foot, the most dirty part, to follow suit, California.
God bless you.
Well, I think.
That's the first time in almost three years we've had the word homunculus used on this show.
It's a good word.
It's an excellent word, and it does apply to diabolical things such as today's Democrat Party, which is radicalized.
You heard AOC.
They didn't lose in Virginia because they were racist.
They lost because they weren't racist enough because Terry McAuliffe, that lovely cuddly Terry McAuliffe, he's a 100% moderate according to AOC.
Just keep on thinking that.
Keep doing what you do because then it's going to be state after state after state.
A John Durham arrest.
We're going to analyse it with Greg Jarrett here on America First.

From the
ReliefFactor.com studio, This is America First with Sebastian Gorka.
But so when EcoHealth Alliance took the virus and combined it with WIV1 and caused a recombinant virus that doesn't exist in nature and it made mice sicker, mice that had humanized cells, you're saying that that's not gain-of-function research?
According to the framework and guidelines... So what you're doing is defining a way gain of function.
You're simply saying it doesn't exist because you changed the definition on the NIH website.
This is terrible and you're completely trying to escape the idea that we should do something about trying to prevent a pandemic from leaking from a lab.
There's the preponderance of evidence now points towards this coming from the lab, and what you've done is change the definition on your website to try to cover your ass, basically.
That's what you've done.
You've changed the website to try to have a new definition that doesn't include the risky research that's going on.
Recombinant DNA strains.
I feel like I'm on the movie set of Blade Runner, my gosh.
Um, Jeff, are you there?
Yes, I am.
Am I allowed to like Senator Paul a little bit?
I like him.
He's not exactly MAGA.
He's a hardcore libertarian.
Yeah, but he would love to tear the swamp down, I think.
Oh, you believe him?
Oh, I absolutely think he's one of the very few I think would be there to do that.
So you like him?
For that reason.
Good.
Because if Jeff likes him, you can trust that instinct.
He's a libertarian, so on some national security issues he's a little bit too loosey-goosey for me.
But God bless him, because he has got that little fascist Fauci by the tail, and he isn't letting go.
He's got the goods on him.
You funded the research in Wuhan.
And now because you're removing the definition of gain of function from your stinking website that we fund as taxpayers, you think that means you didn't do it?
We're going to play you some more cards.
Breaking news here.
We've got Greg Jarrett who's going to tell us what the arrest of the key source of the fake P dossier steel dossier propaganda product means our big names gonna be next.
You know, Greg, he's a truth teller, but we've got lines.
We've got people on the line.
You are the most important part of the show.
So let's go to your calls.
Victor Silver Spring, Maryland line three.
Welcome, Victor.
It's been too long.
Yes, it has.
And, um, I remember the other day you were telling people we'll do something.
I think I do that every day, Victor.
I think I do that every day.
I did something in a very, very tiny way.
I got three friends in Northern Virginia and I called them and I said, you've got to vote for the Republican ticket.
You've got to vote for the Republican governor.
And one of them said, why?
And I said, well you know me and I've told you over the years how the Democrats use people and when they don't need them anymore they throw them away like garbage.
And I was explaining, I said, I had a Democrat come to my front door and wanted me to vote for him.
And I said, what have you done for the blind lately?
And he goes, I can't think of anything.
I said, see, you're using me.
Get out of here.
God bless you.
So you convinced three people in Virginia to go and vote who weren't going to go and vote, Victor?
Yes.
I said it was extremely important.
I told them how badly the Democrats use people.
And number two, I need the phone number of the store.
I want to get a jacket, a hoodie.
A hoodie!
Oh, we can do that.
We can organize that.
There's a lot of blind people who don't have computers, so they need a phone number.
Yeah, that's a good point.
Because you're such a good supporter of the show, we're going to give you a hoodie.
Stay on the line.
Jeff's going to get you a dress.
We've had it before, but you are going to be emblazoned with the word America first on the softest, warmest hoodie out there made in America with the stars of the Stars and Stripes in the hood.
So you don't have to pay for it.

Let's go to Betsy San Antonio.
Welcome, Betsy.
Hello, Dr. Gorka.
I have a question for you.
I really need a definitive answer.
Yes.
I went to my doctor on Monday, and she knows I had COVID.
And so we were talking about the vaccine, and she goes, nope, you don't need the vaccine.
And she goes, besides, there are boarded baby particles in the vaccine.
So I go to my dermatologist today, he goes, have you are you vaccinated and I said no I'm not getting the vaccine because my GP says that there are aborted babies and that's not true that's not true that's that's the right wing and I said now Dr. Gorka these are both experts Hang on, why would a dermatologist be an expert on a viral vaccine?
Oh, he says he has spent thousands of hours researching.
Well, he's a liar then.
He doesn't know what he's talking about.
Here are the facts of the matter.
Is that a parakeet in the background, or do you have a very squeaky chair?
Oh, chickens.
I have parakeets in the room, that's why I came out.
What kind of chickens?
I got a million chickens.
I love chickens.
A million?
That's a lot of chickens.
That's a lot of chicken poop.
All right, let me get to this, Betsy.
So, the answer to the question about the vaccine is a little bit complicated because there's more than one vaccine.
Here is my understanding.
I haven't done tens of thousands of hours of research, but I've done enough.
There are different types of vaccine.
The traditional ones that use traditional vaccine technology have involved the use of aborted fetal tissue that's a fact that's a matter of that's why the catholic church has given out official statements on why they cannot support those vaccines however that isn't the only type of vaccine there's the new experimental rmna vaccine which is a new type of technology never used before It's inventor says it is actually still very risky.
That technology, that vaccine doesn't, to my understanding, use the old aborted tissue technology.
So it depends which vaccine you're talking about.
But at the end of the day, Betsy, what your doctor said is the key issue.
If you've had, if you've had COVID, you don't need a vaccine because there is no vaccine, traditional technology or new RM&A technology, which can give you Better protection than the rampant T-cells you have in your body already because you beat COVID.
So go and talk to your doctor again.
Go and talk to your doctor again and make sure that his viewpoint is clear on you having had COVID because everything we know is that those who have beat it are more liable to be healthy and safe than any vaccine they can take, especially anybody who has pre-existing underlying conditions.
Great question, Betsy.
So glad you asked it.
Let's go to Nashville JR, line one.
Hey, Dr. G. I love Victor.
Good gosh, what a great guy.
He is totally a great guy.
That's obvious.
So, About the day after the 2022 election, I think we're going to look back on this election in Virginia and go, that was the spark.
Because everyone I know has been blowing up my phone all over the country saying, oh God, there's actually hope.
You know what I mean?
This is the most important thing, JR, because I've tried to send a certain message on this show when people come in dejected and say there's no point anymore and they're going to steal every election.
Well, JR, did they steal the election in Virginia?
Nope.
Nope.
And who won?
We won!
Yep.
And we have a wonderful lieutenant governor in Virginia now.
Wonderful!
Oh, let's listen to her.
She is absolutely superb.
And she laid down the gauntlet to the liars.
Oh, it's white supremacy!
Well, she's black and she's from Jamaica.
Her name is Winsome Sears and this is what she said about Troy Reed, that homophobe.
Cut five.
I wish Joy Reid would invite me on her show.
Let's see if she's woman enough to do that.
I'd go in a heartbeat and we'd have a real discussion without Joy speaking about me behind my back, if you will.
She talks about white supremacy.
Does she know that I ran against a white supremacist?
I mean, Joy, come on.
Get your facts straight.
And then come talk to me.
So what do you think, JR?
You think, joyless, you think that Reid is going to pick up the gauntlet and is going to debate Winsome Sears?
Not a chance.
Don't mess with a Marine.
Don't mess with a Marine who's married to a Marine as well.
Guys, if you missed the show yesterday, why?
What's your excuse?
And if you had a good excuse, listen.
We played a three-minute clip of it, but the whole seven minutes, you've got to listen.
It's even better than Glenn Youngkin's acceptance speech.
He was goofy, he was funny, he danced around the stage, and it was, you know, but you can tell he was reading it off the teleprompter once he stopped dancing.
Winsome Sears.
Acceptance speech.
As Lieutenant-Governor-Elect, it was America.
She spoke about her father arriving here penniless.
She talked about why she loves this country.
And that is why we will win again and again and again.
And that is why we will always win.
Because our fuel is love.
Zig's hot.
Is that Greg? - I'm sorry.
Um, line six.
Oh, it's a hotline.
It must be the news trying to use it.
Oh.
Um, tell, when you email Randy, tell him that that call is blind.
So that's why he's getting it.
Oh, I already sent it to him.
Okay.
What did Sears mean when she said she ran against a white supremacist?
Did she talk about the Democrat?
I don't know.
Huh.
Um.
Whatchamacallit.
Hala Ayala?
Oh.
Oh yeah, Hala Ayala.
And just make sure there's no way they don't have any kind of phone number, right?
I don't think so.
Yeah, just double check with him.
Actually, we did it one time before, somebody on the internet, they called him.
Oh.
And to clear that up, you said R-M-N-A, it's M-R-N-A.
M-R-N-A.
Yeah, M-R-N-A.
Which they want to do with all vaccines.
Do what?
This R-M-N-A, that technology can be used for all different vaccines.
Have you heard that that's the one they want to propagate?
Yeah, this was on a documentary I saw before it started, which is my theory why this is the great experiment.
It's a great testing ground.
Do you know what that documentary is?
I think it was the Bill Gates thing, but it's on Amazon Internet.
I'll look at it.
Yeah, please.
It came out before this started.
It was just how they could use that for all viruses.
Speaking of documentaries, I remember when a friend posted the, uh, on Facebook, in a group I'm in, posted the link to the first part of the Tucker documentary.
Yeah.
It was about January 6th.
There was an automatic Facebook warning below it about COVID.
And I was like... Oh, did you get a response from Instagram?
What's that?
Did you get a response from Instagram?
From who?
Instagram.
No, not yet.
Alright, two minutes.
Wanna keep the mics on for Jared or off?
Uh, off.
Okay.
I'll turn them off now.
I'll turn them off now.
I'll turn them off now.
I'll turn them off
now. .

Big breaking news.
We're going to discuss it momentarily, but if you're looking for something made in America to purchase this Christmas, or just to celebrate the victory in the Commonwealth and New Jersey elsewhere, that trucker, he beat him.

Well, perhaps the biggest news of the day is the actual arrest, not a subpoena, not an indictment, the arrest by John Durham's special counsel of the key individual behind the so-called Steele dossier.
Nobody None better to analyze it than the legal and political analyst for Fox News, the author of the Russia Hoax and Witch Hunt, host of the Brief podcast, Greg Jarrett.
Welcome back to America First.
Hey, Sebastian.
Always great being with you.
So tell us first, let's start at the beginning.
Who is Igor Danchenko?
Well, he's the fabulist behind the discredited anti-Trump dossier.
Indicted and charged with lying to the FBI, not once, but five times on five different occasions way back in the infancy of President Trump's term back in 2017.
The FBI knew that the dossier was phony.
They knew that Christopher Steele was not credible, who composed the dossier.
They'd fired him for lying.
And yet they used the dossier and Denchenko as a pretext to continue their probe of Donald Trump and to lie to the FISA court to continue the spy.
And, you know, it's really pretty stunning.
Denchenko was not some mysterious Russian agent operating in the bowels of the Kremlin as, you know, Christopher Steele, the ex-British spy, led everyone to believe.
No, the guy's a researcher.
At a liberal think tank, the Brookings Institution in Washington, D.C.
Right.
That at the time was run by a longtime friend and ally of Hillary Clinton.
Gee, what a coincidence.
Yeah.
You know, I mean, it was Clinton and her confederates who invented the Russia hoax, framed her opponent, and disseminated the information.
And Dinschenko was key to it, and it turns out Not only when he was interviewed by the FBI did he debunk the whole thing, but in the process he lied about who his real sources were.
Now we don't know through the indictment yet who those real sources were.
I wouldn't be surprised if they were people closely connected to Hillary Clinton.
So here's the layman's question to you.
You're the expert.
We're talking to Greg Jarrett.
Follow him right now at Greg Jarrett on Twitter.
2Gs, 2Rs, 2Ts and at TheGregJarrett.com.
So this special counsel was actually appointed by AG Barr under the Trump administration.
Correct.
We are just days away from the anniversary of the presidential election.
And so he's been in office for almost two years.
Is this how long it takes to get one arrest warrant out of a special counsel's office, Greg?
Well, there's actually been three.
And, you know, I give Durham Credit should be commended for having the courage and persistence to uncover the incessant lies and to bring criminal charges against those whose malevolence drove what is essentially the dirtiest political trick ever perpetrated in American politics, the big lie, Trump-Russia collusion.
He obtained an indictment in guilty plea against an FBI lawyer, Kevin Kleinsmith, for falsifying documents on the wiretap warrants.
An indictment against Clinton campaign lawyer, Michael Sussman, for lying to the FBI.
Now, Denchenko.
And I think there are more indictments to come.
And in fact, Seb, you know, Denchenko may offer the key to unlocking even more acts of corruption.
We'll have to wait and see.
But look, the pandemic sent uh... is uh... you know investigation terms investigation on the back burner because it was so difficult to interview people uh... and once it got back going it's very difficult to unravel complicated tangled webs of deceit and lies it takes time Okay, so let's look at the consequences.
You mentioned the three arrests or indictments.
You mentioned Clinesmith who was the first.
This is what Americans who doubt The efficacy or the unbiased nature of the judiciary and the legal system today will ask.
If you or I, Greg, were found as lawyers, as a lawyer for the FBI, forging, changing a CIA document so it could be used to obtain a secret FISA warrant to surveil a U.S.
citizen, we wouldn't be talking on a radio show or television today, would we?
No, of course not.
We'd be behind bars for a substantial period of time, and it was disappointing that the federal judge, who accepted Quint Smith, the FBI lawyer's guilty plea, gave him probation, essentially, saying, well, his life has been ruined as a lawyer, and he's paying a high price that way.
Sorry, but that's not good enough.
Confinement behind bars is the appropriate punishment, and yet, incredibly, you know, in Washington, especially on the federal bench, you tend to have a lot of lenient liberal judges, and that's what happened in the case.
But wait and see what happens with Sussman and, you know, five counts against Denchenko, It's going to be a very tough case for him and his lawyers to defend, and Special Counsel Durham seems to have the goods on him.
Right.
I believe it was for the lawyer who fabricated or actually changed the date or the content of that CIA document, it was a suspended sentence in some community service, Greg?
Yeah, probation, suspended sentence, community service, Kevin Clinesmith was his name, and you know, he'll never again be able to practice law with a record like that.
I don't know if he's been disbarred yet or not.
I have no idea.
But you know, when you plead guilty to lying, In most jurisdictions that means you get your ticket yanked forever.
The question is where will he get that contributorship with CNN or MSNBC which seems to be the way things go if you are caught lying to the feds if you work for the feds.
Like McCabe and others.
We're talking to the author of The Russia Hoax and Witch Hunt.
He is the host of the podcast The Brief.

We'll be back with Greg here on the Salem Radio Network after these messages.
Wherever you are, whatever you're doing, don't touch that dial.
With the deepest voice in talk radio, Dr. Sebastian Gorka.
And coincidentally, the definition appeared on the same day the NIH said that yes, there was a gain of function in Wuhan, the same day the definition appeared, the new definition, to try to define away what's going on in Wuhan.
Until you accept it, until you accept responsibility, we're not going to get anywhere close to trying to prevent another lab leak of this dangerous sort of experiment.
You won't admit that it's dangerous, and for that lack of judgment, I think it's time that you resign.
That is, earlier today, the fiery exchange.
It's not just the AG that the senators, the GOP, are calling for his resignation.
It's also Fauci that was, of course, Senator Paul, saying, hiding the gain-of-function research is a reason you should leave.
Nobody's left the administration.
Nobody's been fired, not for Kabul or anything else.
Do we have rule of law in this nation?
Let's continue our discussion with the Expert.
We resort to, always when it comes to legal matters, Fox's Greg Jarrett.
Greg, let's switch from the Danchenko news to this weird twilight zone we seem to be in.
If we stay on the question of Covid and health mandates and vaccines, first things first, I haven't had a lawyer explain to me where the mandate really is, because there's no executive order, there's no law that has been brought.
Right now the administration says that OSHA is about to release the regulations.
Well, how do we have a vaccine mandate if OSHA hasn't even released the regulation, Greg?
Well, you don't really have one.
Not only that, it's unconstitutional.
Look, the Supreme Court has considered previous cases, two main ones, twice in the last 100 years.
And in both cases, the Supreme Court I said quite clearly, the federal government has no authority to issue a vaccine mandate.
That is strictly under the police powers identified in the United States Constitution.
Which are state powers.
Yeah, those are state powers.
And that's specifically delegated to the states, which means the federal government has no power there.
Biden knows that, which is why He tried to do an end run by forcing OSHA to issue a mandate regulation.
But, you know, OSHA has no power to do that.
It's beyond the scope of their authority.
And it's surprising to me that OSHA lawyers didn't have the courage to stand up to Biden and say, hey, we can't do this.
And so, you know, that's been challenged.
It'll get struck down, but it takes time.
And I think the strategy for Joe Biden is to do something unconstitutional, knowing that eventually he'll be struck down, but he'll achieve some success by, you know, force of intimidation, getting people to capitulate with his unconstitutional getting people to capitulate with his unconstitutional mandate.
You know the law, Greg.
You know the swamp.
You follow these issues so closely for decades.
So what's the scenario now?
Every day, every day, I get DMs, I get texts, I get messages from people saying, I'm going to lose my job, my employer's mandating this, or I'm a federal worker.
OSHA, Andy Biggs today said, OSHA has to be dismantled.
God bless him.
But they're clearly going to deploy whatever this fake regulation is.
It's going to take months, if not years, to get to the Supreme Court.
What happens in the meantime?
Do Americans suffer who have pre-existing conditions that preclude them from being vaccinated or who have religious reasons?
What is your expectation?
Are the states going to step up to the plate?
Well, there are dozens and dozens of legal challenges and lawsuits, both state and federal.
And I would hope that the Supreme Court would expedite a petition for a hearing and do so, you know, pretty quickly.
We'll wait and see what they do.
But they've actually been very sensitive to that in other cases most recently.
And so, you know, I think that the lawyers who realize that this is unconstitutional You need to really step up and move quickly to get the Supreme Court to do what I know they would do, and that is to, you know, strike down the federal mandate.
But other challenges are being made on a different basis, religious challenges, and just challenges under equal protection.
You're discriminating against one class in favor of another.
For example, you know, people who have already had Uh, COVID.
Yes.
Um, have a natural immunity.
And, you know, there's no reasonable basis to demand that they get a vaccination.
So, these are the kinds of challenges that are making their way through the courts.
Fabulous, it's time for patriotic lawyers to stand up and take these cases because it truly is it's creating a medical apartheid.
It's segregating people based upon their health and also it's in contravention of HIPAA laws demanding that I prove my health status when I go to a business or get on a plane.
No, that's not right.
It's un-American.

Dr. Sebastian Gorka!
What I want to say to black people, Asian people, whatever, minorities, Latinos, whatever, don't allow political parties to divide us.
Don't allow political parties to use whatever grievances that have been historically against you to force you to look at them as the savior so that they can swoop in and Think they're saving you when all they're doing is pitting one race against the other, one race against the other.
You'll notice, for example, that what was happening with Asians, it was young black men, and they were attacking Asians, but nobody wanted to say anything about it.
If you can't identify the problem, then how can you come up with a solution?
A very commonsensical approach.
That's Winsome Sears, the Lieutenant Governor-Elect for the Commonwealth of Virginia.
I need to look into the statutes, the Constitution for the Commonwealth, because, you know, in most states...
Lieutenant Governor doesn't do very much.
They're kind of just waiting around to take over if there's a problem with the Governor.
I hope in the state, the Commonwealth of Virginia, that is not the case, because man, oh man.
The challenge now for Glenn Youngkin, and this is, we saw it.
There were issues, clearly, with the people around him.
In the campaign people who weren't Trump supporters didn't want him to come on this show until we finally got through to him.
So the question now for Glenn is who are you going to surround yourself with?
Do you?
Are you planning on having a kitchen cabinet of people who aren't swarm creatures?
People who love the Commonwealth and will tell you sometimes the unpleasant truths you need to hear.
So, well done Glenn.
Well done to Winsome Sears.
Well done to Jason as well.
But now, who are you going to surround yourself with is the question.
Hopefully.
Well, let's look at the left's interpretation.
Stephen Colbert used to do comedy.
Now, I guess he's some kind of political commentator?
Goddamn.
Claims about what's being taught in history classes have become the latest racist dog whistle.
For instance, on Monday, Youngkin made this promise.
Let me be clear, on day one we will not have political agendas in the classroom and I will ban critical race theory.
Here's the thing.
Critical race theory is not taught at the K-12 level in Virginia.
Wow, that was fast.
Promises made, promises kept.
Good for you, Governor Yumpkin.
He did it.
He did it.
It happened.
It's pretty hard to campaign against someone who's promising to eliminate things that don't exist.
He quoted the New York Times.
Therefore, he must be right.
What he didn't quote is the document that I've tweeted out from the Virginia Department of Education, which states that, quote, critical race theory shall inform curricula.
that lists books such as an introduction to critical race theory such as authors like Ibrahim X Kendi whose real name is like Jimmy Smith or something but I guess that was a little bit you're reading what the but not the New York Times says Colbert but what the Virginia Department of Education says Was that too much work?
I mean, I wonder how many people do we think?
Jeff, what do you think?
How many people work on a show like Stephen Colbert's show?
Oh, there's gotta be... 50?
At least, I'd say 50, 60 people.
That's exactly what I was thinking.
Right, and so, the people who help with the content and the research, let's say, modestly, at least, mmm, 12 people.
You're talking about writers?
Yeah, research and writers.
Yep, at least that.
You think they'd be able to look up the Virginia Department of Education, right?
Well, they're just repeating what's been sent to them by a certain party.
Talking points.
And the New York Times, right?
Exactly.
This is the reality.
It's propaganda.
It's...
The messaging, the narrative, not the truth.
The fact that we can differentiate between the concept of teaching a theory.
No, Stephen, we don't think that six-year-olds are being taught theories.
But we can differentiate that from teachers being told that you will teach the tenets of a theory, you will teach that racism is endemic to America, that people who have light skin, have fair skin, who are white, have an advantage because they're bigots, they're racists, the system is so designed to favor them.
And those with a darker pallor, with a darker complexion, those who are black, brown, yellow, those individuals are perpetual victims.
That's what the left teaches.
The idea that you don't realize that It's unbelievable.
It's inconceivable.
The fact is, you know it, and you're a liar.
You stand on your little faux comedy platform, and you think we're stupid.
The only people who are stupid are the people in your audience.
The train seals that bark, that clap, when you do a comedy routine with grown-assed men dressed up as vaudeville dancers in syringe suits.
That's how utterly morally compromised you are.
You are a prostitute for the propagandists.
You are a willful tool of liars.
People like Fauci, people like Biden, people who don't care a whit.
About our children.
Or health.
They have one desire.
To maintain power.
And then to continue to go to those fancy, fancy cocktail parties in Manhattan.
Yeah.
Well, we're not interested.
Because we believe in America.
America First.
Salem Radio.
I'm your host, Sebastian Gorka.
Come to you live from the reliefactor.com studios.
Reliefactor.
Are you in daily pain?
Have you tried everything else only to fail to find relief?
Well, then you have a very simple choice to make.
There are tens of thousands of Americans right now, me included, who are getting our lives back free of pain because of this amazing product.
People like Debrin from Massachusetts.
This is Debrin's story.
I just started taking Relief Factor four days ago.
My hip pain is gone.
I had a horrible time sleeping because of the pain.
I absolutely love how I am feeling.
Thank you, Relief Factor.
Just those words.
My hip pain is gone.

Yeah, it didn't make sense after the cut, so I'll do pillow now.
Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
I just wanted to keep it on the radar.
Piscobo had to be moved to 940 tomorrow, but that still works, I assume.
Mm-hmm.
Okay.
And then Spice for tomorrow?
I'm still waiting to hear, hang on.
Okay.
Presumably it would be around 6.05, 6.10, 6.15 like the usual, give or take.
70 seconds.
70 seconds.
Oh, come in with cut 13. - Um, Cut 13.
Mansion.
Got it.
24 seconds long.
One minute.
This is interesting.
This is a study on 80 to 83 year olds in England with an mRNA vaccine and seeing how much it actually affects hospitalization and contraction rates and over time.
And it's, I mean, the percentages, you'd want to be higher on that if you have any qualms I don't know.
I'm going to read more of these and come back.
Anyone can do that, too.
That's the thing.
Everyone can read these things.
I emailed you the link to the Mr. Reagan video.
Thank you.
Why would he need to do the research?
20 seconds.
Yep, 20 seconds.
Stand by.
Standing by.
Bye.
Almost a day's end.
All right.
You are doctor.

This is America First with Sebastian Gorka.
We want to live!
We want to let!
For those of you who are listening and not watching, that was, I don't know, 40, 50 loonies with a giant banner harassing Senator Manchin on the street.
Saying, we want to live!
Nobody's stopping you, but you need to get out of the cult.
Will he cave?
We'll see.
In the meantime, I think New Jersey is potentially even bigger news.
OK, we need a recount with regards to Murphy, but the Senate president being defeated.
Big, big news.
Why did it happen?
Well, let's listen to some people from Long Island who were interviewed about what's turning the tide politically in America.
Cut to.
I think they've forgotten that there was a middle class here on Long Island.
People You know, with the mandate.
And I'm vaccinated.
Trust me, I'm vaccinated.
I'm getting ready to get my third booster shot.
But, you know, the way it's implemented, the administration implements this mandate, it's not a good thing.
A lot of people, you know, should have a choice.
Forgetting about the working class.
That's exactly why Donald Trump was elected.
Because the forgotten men and women found a champion in him.
But the Democrats just keep on doing what you do.
Except for the voter fraud from Essex County in New Jersey.
God bless Project Veritas.
James O'Keefe has done it again.
They'll just let anybody vote.
Cut one.
You voted in the election in January of last year?
Uh, the presidential.
Uh, yeah.
And did you register?
No, I wasn't registered either.
Are you registered now?
Oh, I never filled anything out, no.
Oh, then I can't see how you can vote, because you're not registered.
No, but remember, I do remember him.
Okay.
Remember, we was allowing anyone to come in.
We was allowing anybody to come in, and they say presidential.
Yeah, Dornier General just let us.
Okay.
I'll let you fill out a ballot now.
I'll let you fill out a ballot now.
Because in the last election, the presidential, oh I remember, we let anybody vote.
That's a crime in New Jersey.
Project Veritas has the poll workers on video saying how they did it.
Next, we're going to go deep dive on everything that happened in the election with a man who's been fighting on the ground to win back our republic from America's majority none other than Ned Ryan.
End Welcome dear friends to America First one-on-one.
It is the day after the day before the dust has, well, not quite settled.
Everybody is polishing their crystal balls and we have somebody here who really should know better than most as to why somebody who had no political track record, never run before ...succeeded in perhaps the biggest upset since 2016.
He is the CEO, the founder of the American Majority, author of numerous works including Restoring Our Republic and most recently, The Adversaries, The Story of Boston Bunker Hill.
Welcome to America First, Ned Ryan.
Absolutely.
Great to be back with you.
Very exciting times we live in.
You know the political landscape better than I do because you are there fighting every single day, organizing grassroots.
Is that an overstatement what I just said?
How big of an upset is this historically?
Massive.
No, massive.
I mean, let's put this in a little bit of perspective.
This is a state that no Republican has won statewide since 2009.
This is a state that Biden won by 10 points last year.
This is a state where we lost majorities in the State House, State Senate in 2019.
Every trend was in the wrong direction for Republicans.
And all of a sudden, Glenn Youngkin wins the nomination.
And honestly, being very honest about this, I thought he was going to be more of a sacrificial lamb.
I have to say, you and I... Like, this is full confession here.
On the show, Mayor Culper, yesterday, we went around the hall on air, we asked everybody, is he gonna win?
Our youngest team member, John, said, yes, absolutely.
He lives in Virginia, as I do.
Our most cynical, Mr. G, my producer, said, nope, no, he's, you know, it's gonna be McAuliffe's by a squeak.
And I said, yeah, I think it's only 1.5% to McAuliffe's.
So this is big!
But it is big.
Really realized though by the third week of September looking at micro-targeted data from the entire state of Virginia.
Oh my gosh.
Youngkin is up three points.
Third week of September.
This is what I told people.
I was feeling pretty confident coming into this for a couple different reasons, and I'll tell you all of them.
I think he was solidly three-point lead from the third week of September moving in.
Just as Terry McAuliffe started going, parents have no right to say what their kids should be learning in schools.
And then all of a sudden, I also was seeing trends showing the House of Delegates was in play, which is a big deal.
It was a 55-45 Democrat majority.
And as we have now seen, it's a 52-48.
Two seats.
Yeah, seven seats were flipped in the House of Delegates.
Because, you know, you can be a governor, but if you don't have the House... Well, this is the amazing part.
So, Junkin wins, obviously.
Winsome Sears, Lieutenant Governor.
Who, by the way, is a rock star.
Yes.
And will be set up... I'm sorry, I said it yesterday.
Her speech was better than Glenn's.
Glenn's was fun.
Glenn's was kind of... He was dancing.
Her speech...
She's a rock star.
To the marrow!
My wife came back from hearing her at an event in September, both Younkin and Winsome Sears, and said, Younkin was fine.
Yeah.
Winsome Sears is amazing.
Right.
And then obviously, Miyares wins AG.
We've now got a 52-48 in the House of Delegates.
This is pretty incredible.
And again, Younkin ran a great race.
I mean, he obviously had the resources.
He worked it.
He worked it.
First of all, he had the money to put in to make it competitive.
His own money.
His own money.
Ran a great campaign, but also I have to tell people he had something fall into his lap and he embraced it.
And it was the school issue.
Okay, we'll talk about that in a second because I completely agree with you and I want us to dissect this, you know, a day after the victory.
But first, because this is 101, because we've got you here for the hour, For those who haven't caught you before, haven't seen you on Tucker's shows or elsewhere, say a little bit about how you are where you are today, what you do, where you hail from and how your dad bit you with a politics bug.
So, bit with the politics bug when I was 10, probably.
I remember going door-to-door.
Grew up in Lawrence, Kansas.
And I remember going door-to-door for city council candidates in Lawrence.
Oh, it started before your dad's career?
It did, yeah.
No, we were always politically involved, motivated.
My dad didn't run until 1996, when I was 23.
And who's your dad?
Jim Ryan, the great runner, three-time Olympian, world record holder in the mile, and was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by the great President Donald Trump.
Big day.
And so, yeah, we'd always been involved, but it went to a new level, obviously, in 96, when he was approached and said, you should run for the 2nd District of Kansas, which has now been vacated by Brownback, who's running for Senate, because Bob Dole's running for President.
And my dad said, I'll go home and think about it, pray about it, thinking, no way that he was ever going to run for office.
What was he doing after his sportsman's career?
He did a couple different things.
He was doing obviously a lot of motivational speaking.
He was doing his running camps.
A lot of people don't know that my dad had a pretty serious illness when he was young.
Lost more than 50% of his hearing, so has worn hearing aids.
They finally invented hearing aids a couple years before he ran for Congress that actually were able to fix the problem.
He became a spokesperson for that hearing aid company.
So there were a variety of things that he did.
It's a great story when you understand some of the challenges my dad was up against and yet Incredible story of how he was first high schooler to break the four-minute mile, three-time Olympian, all of these great things.
So yeah, ran in 96 and obviously the involvement in politics went to a new level.
I came back in 2000 and was at the White House 2001-2002, helped him fundraise after I left the White House.
And then started something for young people called Generation Joshua, which was civics education and engagement.
I'm a big believer, obviously, that we have to have the fundamental beliefs in place, but we have to put them into action in targeted ways, which then led to American Majority, which we started January of 2008.
Explain what that is.
So American majority is really state and local focused and it's all about, in many ways, politics is policy.
How do you find good men and women to run for school board, for city council, for county commission, for mayor, state house, state senate, and teach them the fundamental strategic fundamentals of how you go run and win It's something that we've been behind on.
local levels.
That's where I think we start to see the real national generational change.
And in many ways, I'm very honest about this.
I have swiped many a page from the left on their strategy and tactics and how they address state and local politics, adamantly opposed, obviously, to their policy ideas.
But they're very good at organizing at the local level.
It's something that we've been behind on.
I'd like to think we're catching up, but we still have room to make up.
But I will say this.
In Virginia, this is what was so encouraging to me this year.
We, you Young can obviously run a great race, win some Sears, Jason Miyares, the House of Delegates.
You saw a lot of the grassroots digging in on becoming election officers, becoming poll watchers.
Finally.
Finally, doing voter registration.
So the thing that encouraged me, gave me hope coming into these elections here in Virginia, is that when early voting started on September 17th, I was seeing in a lot of different places, we had Republican poll watchers at every poll starting on day one of early voting.
That's a huge step in the right direction.
My wife is an election officer, and she's told me horror stories.
She only got trained, I think, four or five years ago.
Whenever she was serving for the GOP, there was always, you know, three times as many Democrat volunteers We are outnumbered 2-1 in Virginia right now.
It's insane!
Yeah, no, this is the thing where I- It's hard to win if you don't have troops!
Well, this is the thing I keep- American majority after the 2020 elections, election integrity has been the big focus of our training this year, in which we want people to fully understand what happened in 2020, the big rig.
But also, what can you do about it?
How can we be smart and sophisticated about it and make sure that we are actually heavily involved in the actual voting process?
We're there inside the room on election day.
But even more importantly, I think the next step is this, and I don't want to go too far down a rabbit trail, but dirty data leads to dirty elections.
We've got to actually have a massive grassroots effort to put pressure on, to clean up the voter rolls.
So let's jump straight in here.
The day after the election, I put this up on Wednesday, a little poll on Twitter.
So who do we have to thank most for winning in Virginia?
I put Biden, Merrick Garland, the Lincoln Project or the school boards.
It was 46% within just a few minutes in the school boards, followed closely by Biden.
For me, this election is about a man who was business, business, business, no mandates, and then, thanks to people like Stacey Langton, just grasped the nettle of CRT and ran with a culture war message in the last month.
And that's why I think he won.
What's your take, Ned?
Part of it is I do think Biden, and this is the argument I was making to a lot of people and I started to see more of in the last few weeks, Biden was an albatross around McAuliffe's neck.
Yes.
Admit it!
And the argument I was making is this, Biden is not on the ticket this year, but you can punish him by voting against everybody that is associated with him.
That's why I think you see some of the New Jersey dynamic, because people are like, what just happened in New Jersey?
Which is even bigger!
Right, that Biden won by 16, that all of a sudden is a nail-biter.
Yeah.
And I think it's a repudiation to vote against Biden.
So there's that one aspect.
The school boards, absolutely.
I mean, this is one of the things, obviously, with Loudoun County, Ian Pryor, but even Chris Rufo on a bigger level of CRT, people finally waking up.
And I think this was kind of a silver lining of what took place with the lockdowns, where parents all of a sudden really started to see what their children were being taught.
Yes.
The positive side of COVID.
Yeah, if there is.
The Zoom calls, seeing what your teachers are indoctrinating your kids.
Right, and then so parents are aware of it, but what even made it even more so is when they show up at the school board meetings and say, hey, we're not really comfortable with this.
In Loudoun County we do a billion and a half towards the school board, and essentially the school board told us to shut up and sit down, to use our taxpayer dollars to indoctrinate our children with ideas that we are adamantly opposed to.
And then what made it even worse coming down the homestretch is this in Loudoun County trying to cover up The multiple rapes.
Right.
- Multiple rapes. - Yeah, that took place and the superintendent claiming he didn't know anything about it.
Right.
Now we have emails showing he knew the day of. - Right. - And so the parents are now saying, listen, we don't like what you're doing on CRT.
We don't like the fact that you're not teaching advanced courses.
Oh, by the way, you tried to cover up rape.
Are our children even safe in the school system?
Let's just say a big thank you right now to the parents.
That's right.
the ones who stood up.
And also, it's just as important, guys.
You don't have to run for office.
You don't want to.
But going to the school board meeting to support the people who are going to talk is as important because then they realize they're not alone.
The School
Board of Education is a part of
the school board meeting.
The School Board of
Education is a part of the school board meeting.
The School Board of Education Thank
you.
Thank you.
Let's break it down, Ned.
Let's look at what does this mean.
Yes, it's one election, but as a resident of the Commonwealth, man, I am excited.
It's so easy to write off all these overpaid rich bureaucrats who moved into NOVA, changed the demographics of the state.
Well, that's over.
And this man, the nice thing, my wife, you know, said the thing about Yunkin is he's like Trump because even in his acceptance speech, he was rattling off the things he's going to do day one.
Yeah, that's right.
He's not going to, hmm, I'm going to have a committee meeting.
No.
Banning CRT, tax cuts.
Put advanced courses back in.
Right.
I mean, there's a whole long list.
Huge things that as a former CEO of Carlisle Group, you know, he should be able to actually implement in a business-like fashion.
So let's pull back from the Commonwealth.
Right.
Let's look at what this means nationally.
Let's look at what it means for next year and 2024.
Let's break down first the Trump effect.
Right.
I think my old boss, I might be biased, played this Really delicately and well.
He did.
Because he did that phone rally, but nothing else.
He did a soft endorsement, but didn't come out banging the drum on Fox every single day for Glenn.
Glenn came out of the closet, came in on my show after mucking around my producer for a few weeks, acquitted himself well, and then once he came on my show, he was, you opened, you know, the faucet, he came out of Breitbart, he came out of Fox, Glenn was everywhere suddenly.
Very interesting.
Which means he's not Fully distancing himself from MAGA.
No he's not.
He walked a very fine line.
How does... extrapolate this for next year in 24 Ned.
Well that was the smart part about one what Youngkin did and I think it's he literally has laid out a playbook for Republicans in 2022 if they're smart which is a massive question.
I mean, let's be honest.
We'll talk about that massive question next.
Describe the playbook.
The playbook is, he took the side of the parents.
It's common sense approach in which the parents should have an advocate in which we fund public schools.
We should not be abused by them.
We should not have our children indoctrinated.
It's our kids in those schools.
And it's our money.
It's our money that funds everything.
And Republicans need to embrace this and go, yeah, we're siding with parents.
I mean, this is so common sense.
I still have been around politics so long.
I'm sure there's going to be Republicans will find a way to muck this up in 2022.
But If they follow the Glenn Youngkin playbook and embrace it and say, I'm going to be an advocate for parents.
Parents have every right to be involved in their children's education.
They should have every right to be involved in how their taxpayer dollars are spent.
I mean, this is a big issue.
Obviously Loudoun County has been ground zero, but this is taking place all across the country.
Embrace the issue and say, we're not going to let this happen.
And oh, by the way, in response, we're not going to have CRT analysts.
Why don't we talk about the 1776 commission of which I was on?
Let's have patriotic American curriculum.
So really fully embrace this, because I think he would see, everybody will see in 2022, there will be a very refreshing embrace by parents saying, yes, we love this idea.
Let's go for it.
So this is, in simple terms, advocacy for the citizens and taxpayers.
That's America first.
Right.
That's America first.
Not advocacy for the radicals, the unions and the extremists, which is Terry.
Terry, sir.
Screw the parents!
But to show how out of touch he was, he brings out Randy Wygarten as a closing argument.
The chief radical teachers union.
But I told my wife this.
I was like, you know, the amazing part about Terry McAuliffe, and it shouldn't be that big of a surprise, but it's still surprising.
They have these conversations in their own little detached bubble in which they have these crazy conversations about their twisted worldview in which, you know, parents shouldn't have any right to have a say in their children's education.
We have too many white teachers.
We should fire them all.
Let's bring out Randy.
And then they go into the general public and people are like, he's, that's crazy.
But this is the one thing where I think they're being exposed.
And this is great that more and more people are watching because all of a sudden they're realizing, yeah, these people are crazy.
They have their un-American twisted leftist worldview is being exposed.
And I hope that it's even, you know, crushed next year.
And I think it will be.
And he, by the end of it, in the last 10 days, if not, if you watch Glenn at the rallies, He was getting a little Trumpian.
When it came to school boards, when it came to CRT, he wasn't being rhino-ish.
I think he's surrounded by rhinos.
That's why it took him two months to come on my show.
I think that's a matter of fact.
Yeah, no, I'm not disagreeing with that at all.
His facial expressions were clear if you're listening or watching.
But by the time he embraced the winning strategy, it wasn't tepid.
No.
This is the one thing that Junkin, again, first time candidate, first time running for public office, in which he showed he had really good instincts and understanding what the grassroots... By the end of it.
Right.
By the end of it, he kind of grew into it and then really accelerated into it and understanding Oh my gosh, this is where the grassroots is at.
This is where the voters are at.
I embrace this.
I actually, and I've gotten to the point, it wasn't just simply an embrace for political reasons.
I truly do believe that on day one he will implement this just because he does believe it.
I've met him more than once.
Right.
I think he's a good guy.
Yeah.
I think he's not, you know, full throttle.
He's a little vanilla.
He's a little vanilla, but which is in suburban areas of Northern Virginia.
It's okay.
It's okay.
I'll take it.
It worked.
Yeah.
I think he wants to do the right thing.
It's like JD Vance was asked a couple of weeks ago, what are you going to do if you win for the Senate?
And how are you going to stop becoming a swamp creature?
And JD, boom, he had this answer because he said, well, I think you become a swamp creature because you surround yourself with swamp creatures.
That's right.
I'm not going to have those strategists.
I'm not going to have the lobbyists.
I'm going to surround myself with people I love and trust like my family.
This is Glenn's.
Glenn needs a kitchen cabinet of patriotic Virginians.
Right.
He needs to ditch the scumbags who are overpaid strategists who've lost every race for the last 20 years.
This is on the school boards.
It's on the Lincoln Project.
Thank you, Lincoln Project, for giving us Glenn Youngkin.
God bless you.
Just keep buying those tiki torches.
If I ever run for office, come to my rallies with the tiki torches.
Please, somebody tell them.
But, you know, if he stays true to What he believes will be OK.
Right.
And this is the one thing that you're absolutely right.
I've been in D.C.
20 years now in which really good people come in.
They surround themselves with terrible staff.
They allow them to be basically pushed in the wrong direction.
And it's it's the little decisions along the way and also you find out these people like a mile away from where they should be.
Right, they're compromised.
So that is an important thing.
It's staffing, it's personnel, it's making sure he does not lose connection with the grassroots and the parents that got him here.
And really, I mean truly, a 12-point swing, a turnaround in Virginia in one year is a pretty staggering thing.
Yeah, very impressive.
We're talking to the founder, the CEO of American Majority, author of numerous books, including Restoring Our Republic, and most recently, The Adversaries, the story of Boston and Bunker Hill.
Follow him at Ned Ryan.
It's spelled wrong.
He spelled it wrong.
His parents got it wrong.
It's R-Y-U-N, guys.
R-Y-U-N.
What's the website for your organization?
AmericanMajority.org.
I encourage people to go there.
We do trainings.
We've done trainings in all 50 states.
We do 1,500 plus trainings.
And we've done almost 60,000 candidates and activists, giving them the tools to be successful in running for office or being sophisticated in how you form coalitions to get out the vote, all these things.
But you know, the thing, and I'm pretty sure we're going to get to this, but I want to make sure that we don't... Tell me the topic and I'll tell you.
The implications of Virginia for next year.
We'll talk about it.
Talk about it.
First things first.
Another patriot, another truth teller needs your support if you are buoyed by the results on Wednesday.
God bless this nation.
Let's make a difference.
Please support America's Mayor Rudy Giuliani.
He is in the crosshairs of the left.
They want to destroy him.
They want to cancel him.
They want to bankrupt him.
They want to get him in a court on spurious charges.
Please support him right now.
Make a donation at RudyGiulianiFreedomFund.com.
That's RudyGiulianiFreedomFund.com.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
So, I asked this question already,
But this is the big question.
Let's continue.
The consequences of Virginia, Ned.
In the short term and long term.
In the short term and long term.
So, let's start, let's flip it.
Let's talk about it like this.
I did a media hit immediately for a British TV channel, and I've started using the phrase, and I truly believe it, not hyperbole.
This, yesterday, today, the next weeks and months, will be an existential crisis for the Democrats.
100%.
I mean this is like, they've 10 months and they can't bring the bill.
Right.
As Brian Williams, propagandist-in-chief, said on the night of the election, he said this live on air, it would have been nice for Terry if the Democrats Could have shown one thing they've achieved in the last 10 months.
And Brian Williams there!
But that's why they were doing this.
I'm convinced that they were pushing so hard on the spending bill and infrastructure, which they put themselves into a box by linking the two together because the progressives.
But they boxed themselves in.
And then all of a sudden realized, we've got to get this done before the Virginia elections, because if the Virginia elections don't go our way, people are going to get really cold feet.
And I think you're seeing that in which people... So, ramifications, short term.
So short term is, I think the Biden administration's got real serious issues with their agenda because all of a sudden people are going, I'm not, I didn't sign up for this because now I've put my political life in jeopardy.
I think you'll see more retirements.
You're not even hearing rumors about Nancy Pelosi saying, I might not be running again in 2022.
Not confirming it, but at the same time, the rumors are starting to float.
I will say this, the thing that people have to understand, in the first midterm of the party outside the White House, they typically gain, since World War II on average, 28 House seats, 4 Senate seats.
Now throw in redistricting, which Republicans should probably get 6 to 13 seats on top of that, Then you throw in some of this dynamic that took place.
I saw this the other morning that the NRCC has now expanded their target list for 2022 for pickup opportunities.
And then, let's be honest, the Biden administration is not somehow miraculously going to go upwards.
I mean, let's be honest.
I see no trajectory change.
He comes home the morning of the election.
Right.
What does Biden do?
Nothing.
Can't.
There's nothing.
There's no events.
No.
Biggest upset for Democrats and then I'm going to take a nap?
So I don't want to be overly optimistic but there are enough dynamics starting to build between all of these historical averages and redistricting and Virginia and even New Jersey.
I'm not going to be surprised if we see a replay of 2010.
Okay, explain.
In which Republicans picked up more than 60 seats in the House and I believe it was four to six in the Senate.
So... But because of... It's a reaction to... Because of the reaction and not because of work they did.
In many ways it was because kind of the same dynamic of Yunkin in which an issue fell into their laps, the Tea Party.
And they realized.
They embraced it.
They were the people that ran.
So not because of merit of their own.
No, of course not.
Kevin McCarthy, the proposition is Kevin McCarthy the speaker.
This is my next question.
You've got MAGA credentials as good as mine.
This is the question every bloody day on the radio show.
I ask my listeners, I ask the millions of people tuning in.
Does the GOP understand what happened in 2016?
No.
They still haven't figured it out.
They still don't get it.
Well, they don't want to.
I think they realize that if this actually comes to full fruition, the America First movement, and actually becomes the party, right?
Becomes the real party structure.
A populist party.
They've lost a seat at the table.
They're out of power.
There's still too much corporate influence.
My thing is this, just to be clear, as I'm joking about Kevin McCarthy, it's one thing to joke about him being the next speaker.
Dear God, does it have to be?
You have to have another horse to ride.
I'm hoping that Jim Banks or somebody like that actually runs for speaker.
Same thing with Mitch McConnell.
I would think maybe Rick Scott as a potential majority leader, but you have to have another horse to ride.
My dad was involved in leadership elections, ran for conference chair in 2002.
First of all, you have to have the guts to actually run, which I'm looking at some Freedom Caucus members going.
Come on guys, step up.
Put up or shut up.
Step up to the plate, be the horse and be able to have an option for us.
So I think there's a lot of things that we should be focused on because I don't want to say anything's a given because we're probably two or three lifetimes away from 2022.
I feel very, very confident that we will take the majority back in the House.
Pretty sure we've got a very legitimate shot to take in the Senate.
The question is, what do we want leadership to look like January of 2023?
We should start thinking about it right now.
Neva Trump is dead.
Lincoln Project dead after the results on Tuesday night.
I mean, they only represented 5% of the party, as it is.
I mean, you look at all these polls.
No, no, but I'm talking about the billionaires from Silicon Valley who fund them.
Are they going to say, uh, thanks for getting Glenn elected, guys?
I hope they keep funding him.
No, I'm being serious.
I think they're one of our best tools because they're so awful at what they do.
And yeah, in many ways, they did kind of help Glenn win.
So I want Lincoln Project to stick around and be well-funded and be useful to us in 2022, as well as this Brandon guy.
By the way, I just have to say, Brandon's very helpful these days.
Brandon's great.
We should just keep cheering him on.
Uh.
Do you believe that America is the greatest nation on God's earth?
Are you a part of the Make America Great Again movement?
I'm Sebastian Gawker, former strategist to President Donald J. Trump, and I want to give you the opportunity to share your values And blast them around the world in what you wear.
Yes, take the America First message whether it is about the president's anti-woke agenda, whether it is about stopping the vaccine mandates, my body my choice, or just telling everyone how you feel about this shining city on a hill.

The End
Thank you.
Thank you.
Let me tick off my topics.
We've done the future, who we have to thank.
Can I just say some things that we need to double down on?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Don't forget that.
Don't forget that.
I want you to react to something first.
Because, you know, I'm kind of pissed, a little bit pissed.
I'm kind of getting over it.
But every couple of days we get a call on the show saying, oh, it's done.
Forget about it.
I'm not even going to vote because they'll just steal it again.
Guys, we won!
So the cheaters Didn't win in Virginia.
Isn't that one of the most important things we have to draw as a conclusion?
Yeah, absolutely.
I think this is one thing that we have shown that if you have the right issues, if you run a good campaign, if you turn out the vote, you can win.
I will say this.
I think Glenn was up 4 to 4.8 points, and if we had not had 2020 and some weird things going on that I think played out a little bit in Virginia, I think he would have won by 4 to 4.8, but I figured in about 2 points of cheating.
So I was telling people I think he wins by 2 to 3 points, which he ends up winning by 2.
So here's a broader point that Mark Levin raised.
What does it say, oh my gosh, that in a historic commonwealth like Virginia, a kind of middle-of-the-road nice guy Almost loses to one of the most slimy, disgusting Democrats.
I mean, the fact that it's not blowing McAuliffe out of the water, that's a problem, isn't it?
It is a problem, and I don't want people to walk away from this overconfident.
Yes, it was a great night.
We had some wins across the board, stunning for what I consider a blue state.
I mean, Virginia really is, when you consider no Republican won statewide.
We lost the last four presidential elections.
It shouldn't be.
But there is a lot of work that still needs to be done.
We work a lot with state legislators.
They better do some more election reform in the next legislative session next spring before the 2022 elections.
And I would strongly encourage the grassroots.
Enjoy, take a victory lap and then double down on your efforts to be officer of the election, poll watchers, voter registration.
This is something the left does very well.
Yes.
And they build their base up in six to nine months before the elections.
You should be doing voter registration.
And then obviously there's people that are listening.
They should be running for office, quite frankly.
And it's not just running for office.
It's supporting those who are running for office, even if you're just there at the events, even if you're just the person holding the voter registration board.
Or even more so, I'd want to take it a step further, be willing to say the last three to four weekends, I will go ahead and knock on some doors, I'll make some live calls, I'll do some peer-to-peer texting, I will do something above and beyond what I've ever done in the past because I think that's what's necessary over the next few election cycles.
The Republic is at stake.
Do I think we've turned a little bit of a corner because of Virginia?
Absolutely.
Have we won?
Not even close.
And for all of you who gave up, If you had written off Virginia, you should be volunteering first.
That's absolutely right.
Guys, look in the mirror!
You wrote off Virginia, your name should be at the top of the volunteers list.
As Raheem Kassam, my buddy, told me a shocking statistic a year ago.
More than half of the positions in the GOP at local level are empty.
Peace and cheers.
Yeah.
So don't bitch and moan about the GOP.
Take it over!
That's how we win.
All right.
You had some big picture things you wanted to mention.
No, I think this is we have to focus on the fundamentals.
Do the small things well.
Leading into the 2022 elections, the primaries are going to be key because there are a lot of races where if we win the primary with an America first, they'll probably win the general.
So I would strongly encourage people.
Because of that culture war trend.
Cultural war trend, but also the dynamics of a district in which if you can go be a solid America First candidate and win a primary, there's just certain districts, there's certain states where if you win the primary, you're going to win the general.
So focus on the primaries, get the right people in, because a party is what people say it is.
And the people who say what it is are those that run and win primaries and show up at conventions.
You want to make Republican Party America First, focus on the 2022 primaries, and then you can maybe have a real impact on who's leadership in the Republican Party January of 2023.
Which way is it trending?
Whenever Matt Gaetz comes on, whenever MTG comes on, I always ask the same question.
Is MAGA winning?
Is America First winning?
And they always say yes and I know why they say it.
You're fighting building capacity on the ground.
You may see things a little bit differently.
Is the Rhino thing still in control or is MAGA winning?
You have to understand, you have a very deeply entrenched, I know this from being decades, lots of money, lots of corporate money, lots of big donors who are not comfortable with America First, deeply entrenched, a lot of power.
No, we're not, but I'm optimistic we can.
How's that?
Good.
No, that's fine.
That's an American answer.
But we have to actually have people that are going to be committed for a long term, like, I am going to do everything I can to help out these candidates win and then hold their feet to the fire and then demand America first leadership.
That doesn't happen overnight, and I don't think it's going to happen in an election cycle or two, but we've got to keep doing the fundamentals for long enough that we can get into a position where we have the power to be able to do these things.
Talk a little about, because we, you know, in national radio shows, TV shows, the big picture of national politics, we never really talk about it.
And that's part of our problem on the right.
Talk about the things you teach people to do and why conservative funders don't pay enough attention to it and why it's the key.
I don't.
We have to reshift some of our thinking in the conservative movement and the center right movement in which we orient.
We've got great ideas.
We have amazing ideas.
Follow through.
Follow through.
Implement.
I call it implementation.
We need more implementers of freedom and we need more implementers of freedom who know how to win.
Yeah.
Right, and this is the thing that the left has figured out.
If you win, you're in the driver's seat to actually dictate policy and we focus on the ideas.
We put the cart before the horse.
Let's put some more money into the horse so we can get that cart to the place where we have the ability and power to actually implement those ideas.
So what we teach, I mean literally if you came to a campaign running for office, we teach you how to do a campaign plan, we teach you how to do get out the vote, we teach you how to fundraise, we teach you how to communicate, we teach you how to do all these fundamentals.
Is this like being a brain surgeon?
Is this like mystical stuff?
No, it's not.
I tell people all the time, if you will follow a metric-driven approach, fundamentals, at the state and local level, you better your chances of winning.
All campaigns are chaos.
And if you mitigate the chaos by having a metric-driven approach, which we teach at American Majority, you better your chances of winning.
By the time you get to more statewide and congressional, there's a little bit more science to it.
But if you follow the fundamentals at the state and local level, you have a really good shot of winning.
Sweat equity, right?
Number one.
Sweat equity, doing all the right things.
Someone just asked me the other day, can I go run for state legislature and not raise money?
No.
Unless you're a truck driver in New Jersey, you can do it with $130.
First of all, people, don't go crazy and think that a guy that put $200 in can win every time a state legislative race.
Highly unusual, but great.
But also shows the backlash.
But I tell people, listen, you know, money is the mother's milk of politics.
At the same time, money doesn't make an ugly baby pretty.
So you've got to find the balance.
How do you get out the vote?
How do you have live conversations?
So there's a lot of fundamentals that we teach and then tell people, put it all into a campaign calendar, follow your weekly, monthly goals.
And at the end of the trip, destination A is when you file, destination B is election day and you're vocal.
You're going to give yourself a really good chance to win.
He is the founder, the CEO of American Majority.
Thank you.
Thank you.
The End
The End
discussion for hours, Ned.
So, so important.
Just got a few minutes left.
I'm going to give you free reign.
What would you like to say to the mothers, the parents, the people running for school boards?
Or what's your general message after the event?
Yes, go ahead.
Yes.
Don't be afraid.
I mean, you and I have been called every name in the book, right?
Especially by the Lincoln Project.
We love it, guys.
Keep doing it.
No, but you know, we used to do a lot of MBC, CNN, afterwards, unbelievable the names you'd be called, the threats.
Don't be afraid.
I mean, this is, if you truly believe in what you're doing and believe that you are right, and we are right, we are right, Do not be afraid of anything that you will be called, anything that will be thrown against you.
Be of good cheer because we truly are doing something that is very good for this nation.
And I tell people we have an obligation to do it for our children and our grandchildren, those that will come after us.
We also have an obligation to do it for those that came before us.
We have a great legacy.
So my message is do not be afraid.
Take it to the next level and decide that whatever you've done in the past, and a lot of us have been very involved and done a lot, you have to take it up a notch or two, I would say for the 2022 and 2024.
Commit to it.
Learn how to become better at what you're doing, whether it's running for school board, whether it's becoming an activist, whether it's running for the state legislature.
Become better at what you're doing because this is something the left has done very well.
They've become very good at the organizing and the activism and the running for office.
We can do the same, because I think there's more of us than there are of them.
Especially when you come... America first, to me, is common sense Americanism.
And when you frame it that way, and you go to the American people, like Youngkin did, I will be an advocate for you, shocking concept, and a government of, by, and for the people.
I think we should prioritize the American people.
In their interest of not only what they want to see for their future and their children's future, how their tax dollars are spent.
I mean, this is something where it's like just have more Republicans buy into a common sense Americanism.
And the way that they do it is when the grassroots starts to speak out more and go, we want to see more of this.
We demand more of this.
We become more involved.
We start to make the Republican Party more like that.
It's a great, great motto for our win in Virginia for the consequences.
Take it up a notch, guys.
That's right.
Take it up a notch, guys.
Last minute, what's your message to Glenn Youngkin, Ned Ryan?
Do everything that you said you were going to do.
Do it from day one.
Keep more promises than you made, like Donald Trump.
That's right.
No, and also, people will embrace you even more if you will be bold.
