- Okay, this is not nom. This is bowling. They're a rule. - Hey, hey, hey, Junior, America! (screaming) - Stike. - Oh, I'm back! - This is so stand by! - All right, everybody. Welcome back to the State for Breakfast podcast. If you're a first-time listener, welcome to the show. If you're a long-time listener, welcome back to America's fastest growing and quickly becoming favorite political podcast. I'm Ro, Noah's still here with me. - Yo. - We're getting ready to roll with our second edition of the podcast day, which means if you're hearing us for the first-time press pause, we'll see in a bit. Go back and check out our first edition of Stake for Breakfast episode 416, featured Georgia Congressman Mike Collins, Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville, and Colorado Congressman Lauren Boebert for the first time. Noah, great catching up with her, what do you think? - I like it. - Long overdue. We were chatting offline before we started recording. I said, hey, you know, on the back of several, several reschedules. It's good to finally get you on the show and she was quiet for a second. And she said, well, shit happens. So there she was, and here we are. And we had a really good segment with her. It was a great kitchen up. You know, she's got a new staff in there as she makes the transition, finishing up this session of Congress as the representative for Colorado three. She'll be running for and, assumedly winning. Her primary victory was by over 30 points in Colorado four for the next session of Congress. And her new team is awesome. Reach out to them without giving too many names. I'll just tell you this. One of the people that's working on her team right now, he's got a picture for his profile picture of him and Congresswoman Beaufort. But in his wallpaper, he's got a picture of him in a Border Patrol uniform with President Trump. So I think that Representative Beaufort has put a great team around her. And it was great coordinating with them and getting things done because they know what we're doing here on the show and how important it is for the messaging we're getting out there and promoting the news accurately and getting the takes from the people that you want to hear from in long form. Like we like to do whenever we catch up with anybody. So we've got another great show here. At the end of this segment, we're going to be catching up with Texas Representative Troy Nells. Gonna get some interesting takes there. Obviously, he's been a huge supporter of Joe Biden and his candidacy because he feels like Donald Trump's gonna absolutely kick his ass in November. So I'm sure even though there's a lot of disarray going on, within the Democrats, Troy Nells is a Stumbman for Biden and riding with Biden harder than ever before. In addition, I'm sure a lot of people who are listening to the show today that got their finger on the pulse of politics up on Capitol Hill and within the Republican caucus know that there's been some drama regarding the House Freedom Caucus. Ohio Representative Warren David was voted by a slim majority to be removed from the House Freedom Caucus last night. Granted, there were many members who were not in town due to the fact that today's the first day of work and people might have been coming in today. But following that announcement, if his removal from the caucus, Representative Troy Nells, who's essentially one of the founders, decided to step down. So we're gonna be able to ask him about that and see what his take is on why he made the move and what does it mean for him moving forward and moving forward here on our second edition of State for Breakfast Today. No, I don't know if you saw it last night, but Donald Trump called in for a boomer exclusive with Boomer sweats himself, Sean Hannity, on Fox News. - Nice. - And for as vanilla as those interviews usually are, there were some things that Donald Trump typically doesn't say to the mainstream press that did make it on a Sean Hannity show last night. And we're gonna jump right into it. You know, the first thing that Sean Hannity wanted to talk to him about was, oh, the weirdness level of the debate and what Donald Trump was, what was going through his mind as Joe Biden came in with his opening statement and first answer. You know, there's that now iconic video of like, Donald Trump doing the double take and then staring at Joe Biden and then looking back at the camera, like, is this really, is this going on right now? And it was pretty interesting to hear his take. Let's check it out. - Let's go back to the debate with you and President Biden because immediately you could notice his voice was raspy, but beyond that, within minutes I could tell this was not going to be a good night for Joe Biden. What was going through your head at that time? - Well, it was a big evening and you could feel a lot of energy or energy like you haven't felt in a long time. On any of the debates, I've done a lot of debates and we've had great success with debates, but this was something very special for whatever reason. It just seemed big. And when I got to Atlanta and this was a CNN headquarters, there was a lot of excitement. There were trucks, I call them the $10 million trucks. That's what the antennas all over and very incredible equipment. I'm looking at things that was just more of a scene than it normally would be. And it really was that way right from the start, right from the moment they introduced us and then they introduced him and introduced me and I walked out on a some and he looked extremely pale to put it nicely. And I don't know, maybe it was a good makeup job or maybe it wasn't, but he was a very pale looking man. And when he started to speak, I don't know, I thought his voice was weak. I didn't know exactly what was happening, it was strange. I do have to say that the CNN, Jake and Dana, they were really, they were pretty good. They were, they were, I thought they were fair. I thought they were fair and the questions, I thought they came to me. But it was a strange evening. I will tell you, it was a strange debate 'cause within a couple of minutes, the answer is given by him work. They didn't, they didn't make a lot of sense. - So it wasn't just a face that he was making. This was really going through his mind. I'm like, what in the hell is happening here? - Yeah, it was bad. - Yeah. And you know, it's interesting to get that commentary. A lot of people have asked Donald Trump about his performance and how he thought he did. You know, there's been a lot of commentary and analysis on it. Some provided here on the show on Donald Trump, the things he needed to do going into the debate and how high he hit those benchmarks following. I believe he excelled in just about everywhere. Talking about domestic and foreign policy all the way up through golf handicaps and getting his point across to the American people. So, you know, and then as we let out with, before our interview with Congresswoman Beaubert in our first edition of the podcast today, playing a couple of clips on the campaign trail of Jill Biden out there stumping for Joe Biden. Without him even being there, she did some solo speaking events in person yesterday. You know, as these people who are going to wind up supporting Joe Biden to the bitter end, continue to call us around the current president, you know Donald Trump is going to do whatever he has in his power, whether it be via social media, during his rallies or in interviews like this to take big swipes of them. Everybody's been talking about how Hunter Biden's become a gatekeeper behind closed doors and within the White House. - That's the wildest chain of events that's ever happened, I think. - It's been confirmed yesterday that he is now staying there. You can't ask for any kind of a wilder timeline and the one we're currently navigating down. - It's amazing. - There shouldn't be a felon in the White House. - And there it is. - There you go. And Donald Trump is going to be sure to be taking swipes of both of them anytime he's asked or even if not, when he decides to bring it up, let's check it out. - Since before the 2020 election on radio and TV, I have chronicled the fact that Joe looked weak and frail and that he was a cognitive mess, long before the election in 2020. The media, I call them state run media, Democrats, they're all acting shocked, like this just came out of nowhere. Is this one incident or is it, is this something permanent? I'm like, did they not notice the guy can't give a press conference? Did they not notice that he doesn't use the big boy stairs getting on Air Force One? Did they not notice the plan to surround him as he walks to and from Marine One? That he wouldn't do a Super Bowl interview? The layup interview for any president, really. What part of his cognitive decline do you think they missed or did they purposely cover for him in your view? - Well, they cover for him and they still are sort of covering, but now it's getting very difficult to do that and it looks to me like he may very well stay in. He's got an ego and he doesn't want to quit. He doesn't want to do that. It just looks to me like that's what he wants. I think Jill would like to see him stay. She's having a good time. I noticed she's really seems to be having a good time and I'm hearing that Hunter is calling the shots so this isn't necessarily a very positive thing for our country but I think he might very well stay in and if he does, nobody wants to give that up that way. He's gonna feel badly about himself for a long time. It's hard to give it up that way the way they're trying to force him out. So, I mean, you really have to speak to his doctors but obviously he's been sheltered by the fake news media. That's why they- It's long, not in real time as it's kind of developing. And, you know, their complicency in this and talking about how the media has covered up for him, has declined over the course of the last week and a half but there are some outlets who are still, you know, carrying the party water for Joe Biden and allowing him to say the absurd things that he continues to say whether it be about January 6th, whether it be about, you know, Donald Trump's behavior at the World War I memorial, whether it be about the fact that Joe Biden gets out and talks to Americans and of course, they all want him to run again or, you know, whether he says, "Come on, man." When they challenge him on the demographics that he's hemorrhaging from Latinos and African Americans, et cetera. It's gonna be really interesting to see how this kind of continues to play out. And as we continue to talk about the job that the media has done, it's the new promotion of what could happen in life post-Joe Biden that Donald Trump was asked about next and that's the possibility of other people running on the ticket in lieu of him in this upcoming presidential election. Now, as the days continue to register and time becomes finite, as we're heading up to both the Democrat National Convention in Chicago this August and then the elections in November. Every day that passes is another confirmation of the delegates in which what I think would surprise them if Joe Biden's not the ticket, probably anger them as well. You have the case of the money, ballots already being printed in some states, et cetera. But when he was asked about Kamala Harris, I mean, Donald Trump's already made fun of her on the campaign trail. I think some of the Congress people that have been through the show today have also said, you know, it's gonna be kind of weird to see what they do in regards to her or anybody else they wanna put on the ticket, I think that's why he's taking shots at Gretchen Whitmer and of course Gavin Newsom. But, you know, going all the way back to the first presidential debate in the fake multiversal primary where Donald Trump sat down with Tucker Carlson and said that she's a weirdo and talks and rhymes, made Tucker Carlson laugh when he asked why he kind of talked about the school buses and the Venn diagrams and stuff. But, you know, he would bring it up last night and Donald Trump was quick to answer on the current state of the vice president. Let's check it out. Well, I think that it will be her. I think they are very concerned about the vote if it's not her. They are very, very, I mean, they're gun shy. They don't wanna do it any other way. I've actually come to believe that's what they're going to do. I think she's an ineffective person. She was in charge of the border. She's never been there. She didn't do a good job and she hasn't done a job on a lot of things, so. But it would seem to me that from a political standpoint that's who they're going with. They're not even talking about alternatives. And it seems that if he gets out, for whatever reason, and I don't think he wants to get out, but if he gets out, it will be her. Interestingly, he's got a lot of power because he's got the delegates. You know, when you have the delegates, unless he says I'm getting up, they can't do anything to get him out. Other than the 25th Amendment, if they wanna do it in a different route, it would be the 25th Amendment. But let's assume with not very much time left. You know, there's not much time left. And then we can straighten out our country. We'll make America great again, right? But there's not a lot of time left. But I think unless they use the 25th Amendment, which they'd use in a different sense, he has all the power. He has the delegates. He doesn't have to get out. There's nothing they can do to get him out. So he'll get the nomination. He got the nomination. And then they'll have their meeting in Chicago which, by the way, last week 117 people were shot and 17 people were killed. That was last weekend in Chicago. And that's like a war zone. But they have their convention in Chicago. And they're obviously very proud of Chicago. And I love Chicago. I have investments in Chicago. But when you look at the crime in Chicago, when you look at what's gone wrong with Chicago, it's not a very good thing to be displaying, right? And that's a good point. And Chicago was a mess this weekend. Again, over 100 people shot, 17 people murdered. And the mayor of Chicago blamed Richard Nixon for the crimes that occurred over the weekend, believe it or not. - Nice. - God rest his soul. Yeah, I mean-- - Everybody needs a scapegoat, everyone else. And then I guess, how dare you? I am not a crook. No, I mean, listen, no, we know what's up with Kamala Harris. She's not a national level ticket. I think that would be, it's the nuclear option. If Joe Biden were to get out and they presented her as feasible, to say the least. I mean, 1.8% was the highest she pulled once the Democrat presidential primary back in 2020 got kicked off. And these poll numbers started rolling in. Out before Iowa, which is the first, you know, caucus in the Democrat party out before California, which was her home state, I believe she was pulling at 5.7% there. And regardless of who you would want to make as her vice presidential pairing moving forward, it seems like the only way to get past this Joe Biden issue and an even bigger red flag with Kamala Harris is to lose this election and get a hard restart on the Democrat side. What do you think? - I want a restart. I want to do over. I want the last four years back. - Well, we're not getting that. But we might be getting people like Gavin Newsom and JB Pritzker and Gretchen Whitmer on, you know, potentially the tickets for 2028. In addition to everyone that's currently in politics up in the hill, you know, that wants to get involved, whether it'll be Senator Warren or A.B. Klobuchar again. Any of those, I guess you could call them rising stars within the Democrat party? More like circling turds around the drain.

And we know Donald Trump has used that name a couple times on the campaign trail. But his segued recently. I don't know if he's misreading it off the teleprompter or if it's written differently now than it was. We thought Bigrant Crimes was hilarious, but he's calling them Biden Migrant Crimes Now, which doesn't necessarily roll off the tongue for anyone that has anything to do with editing this show would know. And isn't as funny as Bigrant Crimes. But, you know, Sean Hannity asked him, I just saw it today. There's a guy in the Northeast. He was apprehended, came into the United States illegally under Joe Biden in 2023. Was released into the interior of the country, made it up to the Northeast. He was caught and they said like, with illicit sensitive content on his electronic devices. That is the nice way in a liberal state of saying child pornography. Now this person has a nice detainer to be removed from the United States. However, he was released on bail and probably will never be seen again until he commits another crime. In addition, I found out today, as I've learned from social media, that the Biden administration, in lieu of the Biden flights, are continuing to fly people back to the United States who were apprehended, detained, during Donald Trump's first presidency, deported back to their home countries, denied asylum, and are now being let back into the United States. - Perfect. - Specifically the report I read on this morning was over 500 people just this month from Cameroon, because they have so much to offer here. I heard they have high levels of doctors, lawyers, and engineers who are just looking to get it into the United States and get those jobs that Americans just can't do apparently. So that's happening. But when asked about the Biden migrant crimes, Donald Trump had this to say about the recent crime wave that's sweeping the country. That is the illegal migrants that are pouring into our countries. Many of them are staying in luxury hotels all over our country. They're being shipped up, you know, as we say now. Every state is a border state, whether it's Idaho or Iowa or Ohio. It doesn't make any difference. They're all border because they're pouring through our country. One of the stats that was incredible, I actually saw it on you first, was when it came out that we're actually flying them in. So it's not just a question of these people coming through totally unchecked and unvetted. They're flying tens of thousands of people into our country, migrants. And many of these people were not people that were welcome to stay in their countries. They're coming up here. And when I originally said, I said they are not sending their finest. These are people that are coming from other countries, Sean, where the president, whoever is running the country, including the dictators, they're sending them into our country. And if you look at Venezuela, their crime is down 72%. Their crime, think of it, down 72 in ours is up. And we're gonna have a new form of crime because these people are just getting comfortable. They're just getting settled in. We're gonna have a new form of crime and it's called Biden Migrant Crime. And that's a new category. And it's a very serious category. And it might blow all of our crime out the window because frankly, you could probably double. When I told you those numbers in Chicago with 17 people dying this weekend, think of it, over a weekend, over a three-day period, four-day period, you had over 100 people shot and 17 people dead. And that probably doesn't include the migrants. Although I guarantee you there was some of that in there too. We have a new form. It's this new category. And it's gonna be very, very serious for a long time to come. And we have to get 'em out of our country. We don't want 'em out. They drop 'em out of their jails and prisons. We don't want them in our country. It's not sustainable by any country. - True story. There's the words that everyone from NOAA to the biggest experts who come on the show and talk about border security and what's happened down there regarding it over the last three plus years they've sat on the show. It's unsustainable for our society to be able to continue to conduct itself in this manner. And we really can't not move past the facts that these crimes are happening in cities and towns and states across the country and they are affecting everyone. Not just the murders and rapes which are occurring, but things like I mentioned a couple of minutes ago about middle-legal having child pornography on their electronic devices, all of the workplace crimes and violence that's going on, the robberies, the assaults. There just seems to be no end. And it affects every component of everyday American's life. It's just not safe to walk out of the house anymore 'cause you don't know who's getting dumped in your community, where they're from and what their intentions are. Doesn't sound like a lot of the ones who are committing crimes had much to do with assimilation when they got here as well. So as we're getting ready to round out the interview portion here, one of the last questions, I believe it was the last question that Boomer Swett shown handed the ask Donald Trump was the state of the VP race. Now we know Donald Trump's holding a rally tonight, which is Tuesday night down near Trump D'Rall in D'Rall, Florida. In addition, he's having a VP party at club 47 down in Florida on Thursday night, and that's gonna be ahead of the weekend where he'll be up in Butler, Pennsylvania on Saturday and then kicking off the RNC this coming Tuesday. So Donald Trump's answer again was similar to a lot of the times he was asked that he hasn't made a final decision or notified. Who he is gonna decide that it's gonna be the VP yet. However, give a little insight on the question, let's hear it. Oh, this was last minute, thanks for calling in tonight. And I wanna ask you about your VP choice. How soon do you think you'll be making that choice? Number one, number two, we keep reading that there is a short list, and on the short list, we hear names like Senator Rubio, Senator Tim Scott, Senator J.D. Vance, Governor Bergum. Are those reports accurate? Are there other people, maybe people aren't paying attention to, and when do you think you'll announce that? Well, you know, we started off with a lot of people who have a lot of good people. As they call it, we have a great bench in the Republican Party. The names that you mentioned, absolutely they're under consideration. And I haven't made final decision, but I have some ideas as to where we're going. And a little bit, you know, we wanted to see what they're doing, to be honest, because, you know, it might make a difference. I don't know, I'm not sure that it would, but there are those that say Trump's waiting until he finds out what's gonna happen with crooked Joe Biden, and we'll see what happens with Biden. But, you know, I think probably within the next week, we can have probably some time. I'd love to do it during the convention. My people say that's a little complicated. You know, in the old days, they would announce the Vice President during the convention, today with modern-day technology. You can't do things that you could have done 50 years ago, very easily. But probably a little before the convention, but not much. It could even be during the convention that would do it. I'd love to do it during the convention. I think it would be a very interesting build-up and important for the convention. It would make it even more exciting. It's gonna be amazing. It's gonna be amazing in Milwaukee. If you announced it right now on this show, I think it would make a lot of news, I'm just saying. Well, if I did it, I'd love to do it with you. But we'll be announcing soon, and I think everybody's gonna be very happy. The choice will be very, very good. It's gonna be a great vice for it. Meaning a person that can do a fantastic job as president, because you always have to think of that first. And then second, somebody that helps you get elected. And there's nothing wrong with that. So, there you go. Kind of leaving the door open for anybody. I don't know if you guys are understanding what Donald Trump meant in this digital age and announcing it during the convention. But obviously, there would be a lot of campaign-related paraphernalia that would be behind the scenes and not for public consumption until they wanted to make the announcement official at the RNC. However, whether it be a new baseball bat, a video game, a new uniform for a sports team, anyone that works anywhere and is around material that's not really used to the public yet can easily take a picture of it and just send it to somebody or throw it up online and say, "Well, here's the announcement before they make the announcement." I know Donald Trump wants his vice presidential pick to be a special moment for his campaign, as it will, you know, pretty much solidify and galvanize what his ticket's gonna look like as a presentation to the American people. Nobody think I know we're still on Team Dr. Ben. You know, I've asked over the weekend and they said he's still very much in play. But when you talk about some of the other candidates like Bergum or JD Vance, even Marco Rubio and the things that he brings to the table, it seems to be getting down to a very short list. They mentioned Tim Scott because he's a Fox News contributor. I just don't think that Donald Trump's gonna go in that direction because of his past pitiful poll numbers. But even if he does, we gotta make the best of it, but what do you think about the short list as we're getting ready to, you know, have a VP party on Thursday night, apparently, and then head into the RNC. Next week, there's gonna be no debate by the time we get through the weekend on who the complete ticket's gonna look like. I just wonder why they have to wait so long to tell us. I know they're just like building the anticipation. But I mean, is there a motive behind taking so long to tell us? I personally feel like there could have been an announcement as soon as a month ago. Yeah. But I really think that the Democrats were telegraphing how bad Joe Biden's performance was gonna be at the debate even before he took that disastrous trip to Europe, which was essentially at, you know, sometime in June. So the way we're looking at what was a June 7th is D-Day remembrance. And now we're already a month out of that. And I think, you know, like Donald Trump said, like you kinda wanna make sure that the ticket you're running against is the one that they planned for. And does that have anything, I mean, the VP debate is just one more time that the American public is gonna get to see what you're presenting as the yin to the yang of your ticket and how much they match up. You don't need anybody. Anybody to go against Kamala Harris and absolutely kick her ass. But if they put one of these people that talk out of both sides of their mouth, let's just say Gavin Newsom or Gretchen Whitmer got forbid even a Hillary Clinton. You'd need somebody that could stand in the room with that person in the political octagon and be able to get out looking like a winner. So, you know, there is some strategy behind it. But again, by this point next week, we could know, but by the time our Friday show airs next week, we're all gonna be understanding what the Trump fill in the blank ticket is gonna look like. So, but that doesn't mean outside of Trump world, there isn't some concerns. I saw yesterday Don Jr. was on his podcast, triggered, and he had some concerns about some of the people that are being vetted as finalists for the vice presidential candidate, more specifically Florida Senator Marco Rubio. For as much as it seems he's coalesced behind the president, he's made all the right commentary when he's appeared on the news over the course of the last several months. But we know him and Donald Trump haven't always seen eye to eye, and even had butted heads at times over the course of his first term in office. However, here's Don Jr. talking yesterday about some of the concerns he has about the Florida Senator. And, you know, what in the big picture he hopes that the Trump team has taken a look at on the big scale of things. Let's listen. Rubio guarantees another impeachment. It has to be advanced or Vivek. Listen, there is, and again, I have a good relationship with Marco, but there is some truth about, like, you know, having someone that's a little bit more establishment in there. It's like, when, like the Senate rhinos, like, wouldn't they love that? Like, you know, I joked, you know, I said that about Nikki Haley. It was like, I mean, it gets her like, by the time my father's hand moves off the Bible in the swearing-in process on what's the date? Is it January 20th? Well, P.M. January 20th. The second it goes off, it would be like, impeachment and gone. Like, that's how fast it would be. And so, there is something about having someone from outside of the establishment to sort of further protect you from that establishment. And that's a really good point he makes. That's a point that we would make here on the show. But when it's coming from the son of the former president, someone who probably talks to his father often about what's going on, doesn't gatekeep as much as Hunter Biden, obviously. And for sure, he does a whole lot less cocaine and probably other stimulants than the current first son does. But again, it's a good point that he brings up. Someone that's always sided with it. What if this was a perfect way to wiggle somebody in there closer to the establishment? And as soon as, you know, you get into office and want to hit the ground running first hundred, hundred twenty days for the American people, say, well, you know what, now that we're sworn in, I have some concerns over Donald Trump's mental acuity as well. Maybe we should invoke the 25th amendment. Maybe we should just start by impeaching him right now. And, you know, when you go with a politician who's currently sitting as a politician, those are some of the connections that you have to make. What do you think, Noah? The connections as a politician, you're going to have to make, you're going to have to link up with as many people as you can to make it work. Carson and Bergham are the only ones that don't have those long establishment ties to the uni party. I think Bergham's kind of hurt himself with bad takes on Ukraine recently, his connections to Bill Gates, obviously saying he wouldn't want to work with Donald Trump in any kind of corporate and private business entity as soon as, you know, or as recently as a year ago. But here's the deal. And again, I tell you everybody, we've got our favorite. We've outlined why. Quiet storm in category five hurricane, both are well versed on policy. Ben Carson's done a lot of the things that you would hope somebody that wants to continue to work in policy. And politics has done over the last four years, gone down to the border, traveled internationally, got out and talked with the people on his book tours and through his organization. Loyalty, undyingly to President Trump. You've heard it here on the show. But whoever he picks, much like for all the people who didn't want to get behind him until their race was over. It's time to coalesce. Swallow your pride and make the most of the opportunity we have right here. Breaking news, I know Don Jr. mentioned Nikki Haley. She is released officially all of her delegates that she was able to acquire in the fake multiversal primary against Donald Trump where she was the last person out there for was still garnering delegates every election day. So that's good to see. I mean, she's not going to come out and publicly do cartwheels for Donald Trump, but she said enough of the right things to know. And now with this, I guess, figurative move to release the delegates and give them all to Donald Trump. That's going to put him, I mean, I think well, probably close to 2,500 at this point. Where we are right now is a ticket and there's a country. So you're all caught up in what Donald Trump was doing last night. We're going to have highlights of his rally today down in Florida on our Friday edition of the podcast.

He's the Congressman who represents Texas 22nd Congressional District. Always excited to catch up with Mr. America First himself, Representative Troy Nells. Welcome back to the show. Great to be with you, Brown friend. Great to be with you. Always a pleasure, Congressman. So listen, big week and a half for Donald Trump coming out of the debate. Joe Biden looked sleepier than ever. I'm sure you enjoyed it as you are a huge promoter of Joe Biden remaining in this race, staying on the top of the ticket, being the representative of the Democrat Party in every way, shape, or form. But it's got to kind of be weird, Congressman. Seeing the media knives out for Joe Biden, seeing entire networks flip on him essentially overnight and then even see people from the other side of the aisle within the House of Representatives on the Democrat side kind of, you know, coming for their own interest instead of, I guess, interest of the ticket, which is something that the Democrats usually don't have a hard time doing. So coming out of the debate, seeing how strong Donald Trump looks, heading into rallies tonight, the RNC next week, just a little bit of commentary from your office. Well, you know, we talked about the debate before the debate. And I said, I hope that Joe does okay. I didn't, I tell you after the first 60 seconds, I was concerned a little bit. He was stumbling. He was fumbling, bumbling, all that other stuff. And that concerns me a little bit because I want, and I've, I've said, if I'm beginning, I don't, I don't want them to replace Joe Biden. I don't want to do the Democrats job for them as well. I want them to have Joe Biden as their nominee and stick with their horse. You know what? Stick with the horse. Now you mentioned there are members in the house and some others that are saying we need to consider someone else, whether it's Kamala or somebody else. I hope that there's not enough momentum there in enough movement. And quite honestly, I don't think there is because number one, if Joe Biden says, I'm not dropping out of this thing, he's staying in it. And his wife Jill, I am telling you, that's the power behind Joe. And she's saying, honey, you don't worry about it. I love, I love the title of First Lady. I love my security. I love the pampering. I love all of it. And I love having my husband be called President of the United States. So she's not giving up. I don't think he's giving up. And he's going to be their nominee, and I'm so pleased with that. I really, really am. Now heading into the RNC, how strong President Trump looks. The poll numbers have favored him for a while, but he's starting to get leads. Over 50% in some states where he shouldn't have no business resonating in the way he is. I'm talking about places like New Jersey and Wisconsin. You see it in places like New Hampshire, et cetera. I mean, America is really waking up. No one's got money in their bank accounts. It's hard to keep a roof over your head. You're working multiple jobs. Your kids are getting hammered, both in the classroom with a failed education system, a broken health care system, et cetera. And Donald Trump looks like, you know, with the selection of his VP is one of the final decisions he needs to make on the campaign trail. Heading into the RNC, looking like to take that momentum and really run with it all the way to November. Without a doubt, and it's a beautiful thing. It's a beautiful thing. Now we get to get on offense here, right? Donald Trump, the greatest president of my lifetime is able to go out there and talk about his four years, the policies in his four years and the results of his policies. Put America first. It put up this whole world in a much safer place. And now you can look at what's happened in the past three years of Joe Biden. So I think it's great. I think it's real interesting. Republicans, we've been talking about Joe Biden and his inability at times to be able to even walk off a stage without some type of an escort with his mumbling and stumbling. And now all of a sudden he demonstrated it for everyone to see in that debate a couple weeks ago. And now they're trying to defend it. They're trying to figure out, hell, no, you knew about this, Democrats. You knew about this a couple years ago, and you did nothing about it. You knew these policies were bad, it was bad for America. The American people are paying attention, and now you're going to eat it. You're going to eat it, fellas, because Donald Trump's coming back. The American people are sick and tired of being treated like third class citizens and the illegals coming in as first class citizens. It's going to stop under Donald Trump. It's a little too late. Get ready, America. Donald Trump's coming back. Now staying in the threads of illegals getting put before America. Congressman, what about the push for the SAVE Act to get it to a vote and get it through the House and up to the Senate? We had Senator Tuberville on the show. Today we know him and Senator Lee out of Utah are working very hard to get something going with the SAVE Act up in the Senate. But in regards to the House, how important is this to the American people to kind of reestablish what the laws are and make it that much easier for Americans to vote in elections in America as only? Well, you don't have to reestablish what the laws are. I mean, it's law. You have to be an American citizen to vote in our elections. Why in the hell do we even have to have this bill? The safeguard American voter eligibility actor of the SAVE Act. I think it's a great bill. I'll be voting for it. Only American citizens should be voting for it, but do we really have to tell the American people that only Americans can vote. The American citizens can vote in these elections. I think that it just tells you the sad state of affairs of where we in today because the Democrats, they don't like it. I think Joe Biden's going to find a way. He's going to do everything he says. He's going to veto this thing. Sure. This is just common sense. So keep digging the whole, Joe, keep digging the whole, the American people. They know that in our Constitution, as Americans vote in these elections, you want your illegals to vote so you can remain in power. That's what you want, Joe. It's not going to happen. No, it's a good point. Switching gears to some of the business of the House. I've seen a little bit of developments coming out of the House Freedom Caucus over the last 24 hours. We had Chairman Good on the show last week. He talked about some of the things you guys are going to be working on once back up on Capitol Hill as he's getting ready to finish out his term. Maybe possibly look into a recount in regards to his election. But some developments out of the House last night regarding the Freedom Caucus and the removal of Warren Davidson from the caucus itself. Maybe you could give our listenership a little bit of insight on what's going on. You know, where kind of Republicans are at right now in the moment? Well, listen, I was at the meeting last night. It was a vote of 16 to 13. It was a secret ballot to vote Warren Davidson out of the House Freedom Caucus. Warren Davidson is a very articulate, very smart guy. In my humble opinion, one of the smarter members we have up here in the Republican conference. Agree. And yes, Warren Davidson did. He did endorse Bob Good's opponent, but he did it against Bob Good. He didn't do it against the House Freedom Caucus. Listen, we're not going to agree on everything. We'd have our differences even within the Freedom Caucus. But I'm trying to grow the organization. I would like to see us grow more, but we're eliminating members. We make bad decisions. Some members of the Freedom Caucus endorse Ron DeSantis. Obviously, I'm a Trump guy. I always have been, always will be. So everybody kind of picks and choose what race is they want to get involved in. It just happened that Warren, you know, didn't think that Warren, that Bob Good was doing a good job and it was hurting the Freedom Caucus. So he made that decision. We should have never gotten rid of him. And I told him, I said, "You vote him out." I said, "I'm done." Now, I will continue, as I have, you can look at my voting record. We are in line with policy, the Freedom Caucus. And I'll continue to vote down, vote their way on many, many issues. I'm just now no longer going to be a member of that organization. So you're going to confirm that you are stepping down from the House Freedom Caucus. And that's a decision you made on your own. It has nothing to do with votes or anything like that. That's kind of a move on principle from your standpoint that you feel at this point you need to do. Yeah, I have resigned from the House Freedom Caucus, but I have assured the members and others that when you look at their policies and their principles, I am aligned with those. I'm just concerned about the direction the organization is going and the leadership within the organization. So that's it. So it's okay. It's going to be okay. The Freedom Caucus will continue to survive. But if we want to increase membership and we want to have more of the ability to, you know, dictate or generate policy within the Republican Conference, we need to grow the organization, not eliminate members because we're only, what, 30-something of us? No, it's a completely legitimate point. And last thing I want to touch on, you know, speed bumps like that come and go. You've been up on Capitol Hill long enough to know this, Congressman. You said you're going to continue to vote in the threat. That's what lined up with the principles of the House Freedom Caucus. Shouldn't really change anything from your office. But heading into the RNC, you did mention people supported Rhonda Stantis. Maybe you didn't support different leadership aspects within the Republican caucus. But how important is it in this moment? The time is now to check your egos, to check where you want to go politically with your career-wise. We know it's a lot easier to say than it is physically to do. But going into this election cycle before the convention next week and getting behind Donald Trump, just kind of checking everything at the door, you know, you see the Democrats on the ropes right now. It's a really important time. And just like, you know, commentary on what you would promote to, I guess not just people in the conference, but people in the caucus and outside of Capitol Hill and beyond how important it is to get behind Donald Trump and Milwaukee next week and get this ticket going all the way to the ballot box in November. Well, Donald Trump's the leader of our party. It's been very, very clear. I think there are some people that felt that Donald Trump was a wounded duck after some of the indictments. And they chose to endorse someone else. And that's their choice. That's their decision. I try to kind of look at things and be deliberate in my decision-making. And when I saddled my horse and my horse is Donald Trump, Donald Trump is taking us, the American people, to the winter circle. Some people didn't want him. Some people endorse other candidates. So now you kind of have to rest your day, you have to deal with that. So listen, Donald Trump's the leader of our party. I've always been with him. I think he is better than, I mean, sliced bread. This guy, he runs on motor oil. He puts the American people first. He's Teflon Don. Things bounce off him. They're coming after him and we as a Republican conference and the Republican party and the American first patriots need to do everything we can to help this man get back in the White House. Because he is the only one that can save this country. Very wise words from the congressman who's actually wearing a Trump tie today. As he always does here on the show, absolutely love it and love catching up with you, Representative Nels. We've got your congressional website live linked in the show description today, sir. As we always do, anyone that wants to check you out on social media, all the great work you're doing up there for the American people. Where can they find you? At Reptorials, my friend, at Reptorials. God bless you. God bless your listeners. Same to you and we'll be looking to catch up with you again soon. This is the congressman who's representing Texas 22. Representative Nels, thanks for joining us on the show today, sir. Have a great rest of your week. Bye-bye. One percent of voters specifically say they are in favor of voter ID. So Democrats are going to vote against something that 81% of Americans are in favor of, really? Yeah, I was proud to join with the Speaker of the House and my friend Mike Lee over in the Senate to introduce the Save Act. It's legislation that I authored. This is legislation that would require proof of citizenship to vote in federal elections. We don't think of this as that complicated. As you said, it's an 80% plus issue across the board among the American people. But Democrats, as usual, are so out of step and out of touch that they're going to fight it. They're going to challenge it. And they're going to try to stand up for the continued destruction of election integrity in this country, rather than just making a simple statement that only citizens should be voting in our federal elections. We have the power to do that under the Constitution. We should do it. There's been credible indication and evidence of mass efforts to recruit people who are here illegally and non-citizens to vote. Virginia had to clean off their rolls last year. They had 1,500 they had to clean off. There's thousands of examples across the country. Let's fix this right now, even as the president has had his lawlessness to destroy our borders and import millions of people into this country. And they've even acknowledged that they intend to try to register these individuals to vote using welfare rolls to do it, using Medicaid to do it. Let's stand up right now as America and say only citizens should vote and you should have to provide proof of citizenship to register. All right. Jumping back into the news portion of the show here. Last news segment on the back end of two big Tuesday editions of the "Stake for Records" podcast. Noah, as always, great catching up with Congressman Tori Nells. He literally took about 12 minutes in between votes on the house floor, which is very busy up on Capitol Hill today to get a couple puffs out of his cigar and provide us with some commentary that's going on with the national campaigns in regards to the presidency and the latest news from the House Freedom Caucus. So always a pleasure to catch up with him and we'll be looking as always to have him back again soon. That was Texas Congressman Chip Roy talking on Fox Business yesterday about the SAVE Act. We all know what's going on there and what that's all about. It's proposed House legislation that's supposedly going to safeguard our elections and I guess re-establish the lines, which have been blurred by Democrats over the years, to get illegal aliens who are in this country and have no rights under the Constitution to participate in elections, especially federal ones, the ability to vote or lack thereof. So I saw on Speaker Johnson's account yesterday, he talked about the SAVE Act and how it will safeguard our elections by ensuring all the American citizens will vote in federal elections. He went on to point out a couple bullet points, I want to read them right here. What it actually entails is that it requires state election officials to ask about citizenship before providing voter registration forms, requires an individual to provide proof of citizenship in order to register to vote in federal elections. They allow state officials to accept a wide variety of documents that will make it easier for citizens only to register to vote in federal elections. It will provide states with access and federal agency databases so they can remove non-citizens from voter rolls and confirm citizenship for individuals lacking proof of citizenship. Directs DHS to determine whether to conduct removal proceedings if a non-citizen has been identified as having registered to vote in federal elections and requires DHS to notify a state chief election official whenever an individual has naturalized to ensure the newest citizens are able to exercise their rights to vote. This is something that's going to become law next year. For as much as pushes they're doing in the House, which is good, pass the legislation if you have the majority. They're now up to 220 against the Democrats 213 with the new congressman being sworn in in Colorado for the special election that was held in congressman Buck's seat. But here's the deal. And for as much as Mike Lee, we found out today also Alabama Senator Tommy Tubbavilla's co-sponsor to legislation up there, is going to push forward. I doubt it gets to a floor vote, doubt even more, even though nearly 82% of Americans want this passed. It gets passed in the Senate. And if it gets to Joe Biden's desk, well he put out a statement on it just, I think, one day regarding the SAVE Act and we're going to take a look at it right now. Obviously he didn't write it because it's more than two sentences and is an off a teleprompter. But this is what came officially out of the White House and via the Office of Management and Budget. Statement of Administrative Policy regarding the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act. The administration strongly opposes HR 8281, the SAVE Act. It is already illegal for non-citizens to vote in federal elections. It's a federal crime punishable by prison and fines. The alleged justification for this bill is based easily on disproven falsehoods. Additionally, making a false claim of citizenship or unlawfully voting in the election is punishable by the removal from the United States and permanent ban to admission. States already have effective safeguards to place and to verify voters' eligibility and maintain the accuracy of voter rolls. This bill would do nothing to safeguard our elections, it would make it much harder for all eligible Americans to register to vote and increase the risk that eligible voters are purged from voter rolls. The evidence is clear that the current laws prevent non-citizens from voting are working as intended and it is extraordinarily rare for non-citizens to break the law by voting in federal elections. The president has been clear. He will continue fighting to protect Americans' sacred right to vote in free fare and secure elections, including by calling on Congress to pass the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Amendment Act and Freedom to Vote Act. If the House Republicans really want to do something about securing our elections and fixing our broken immigration system, they should vote on the border deal if the president negotiated with a bipartisan group of senators. This would provide immigration officials the resources they need to do their jobs correctly and in the toughest and fairest of reforms to secure the border that we have seen in decades. And of memo, Noah, there was a lot of things that we could probably fact check in there based on the experts that we have brought through the show over the years. Mm-hmm. But I mean, that's just a total load of bullshit. Yeah, it's epic bullshit. And if it's already illegal, then what's the problem with enforcing it? It's so weird that I keep seeing these documentaries about people that are going to these little colonies of places where they're housing large groups of illegals and they're going door to door saying that they want to register them to vote, even though they know it's illegal, but they're being told that they're already registered to vote and have been done via the NGOs who are swooping across the country and making sure all the people that come into this great land of ours are getting registered to vote when they apply for all their other benefits. And it doesn't matter if they're the ones that are actually voting because all their voter registrations, like I said before, most likely are going to whatever the shelter or bullshit address or hotel that they had previously given. And that's where all these -- I mean, they're literally going to have truckloads of ballots shown up for these people. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I don't know if you heard yesterday. I guess it can end the threat of policy. But the RNC platform committee adopts the 2024 Republican Party platform. This is a statement via the Trump campaign. And it's talking about the roadmap to make America great again out of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Today, the Republican National Committee RNC platform committee adopted the President Donald J. Trump for President 2024 national Republican Party platform with overwhelming support. A pro-America agenda that stands in stark contract to the record of weakness, failure, and dishonesty created by Joe Biden. President Trump's platform serves as a contract with the American voter and makes it clear that we can and will deliver under President Trump and his administration with the Republican Party leading the way for the country for the next four years. President Trump's 2024 Republican Party platform indicates and articulates his vision to make America great again in a way that is concise and digestible for every queer voter. Chris Lassavita and Susie Wiles put this out while Joe Biden and Democrats argue who will be at the top of the ticket and have implemented policies that have raised prices on everyday families, opened the floodgates on the migrant crime via the wide open borders, shackled American energy, forced red tape by Washington bureaucrats, soon chaos across the world with weak foreign policy. President Trump will again make America great again, again, through these America first principles. Only President Trump can restore the economy, restore to southern border, restore America's standing in the world. This is a road map to victory and to his historic Trump landslide in November. Together we can make America great again. So the platform dropped yesterday and Noah, so it looks like this has made promises kept version 2.0. This is what Donald Trump wants to do for the American people, I guess as part of his next time in office. Twenty bullet points, like they said, pretty clear and concise, easily digestible to the American people. It doesn't get into like policy specifics, just kind of outlines the platform that they've run on, the major components of agenda 47, etc. I'll read off a couple of them here, and this is going to be the platform that everyone's agreed on at the RNC Convention next week. That Donald Trump's going to be using as a presentation to the American people between then and November 5th. Number one, seal the border and stop the migrant invasion. End of sentence, pretty easy there. Number two, carry out the largest deportation operation in American history. Number three, end inflation and make America affordable again. Number four, make America energy dominant and the normal and producer in the world by far. Number five, stout outsourcing and turn the United States into a manufacturing superpower, I like that one. Number six, large tax cuts for workers, and don't forget, no tax on tips. Number seven, defend our Constitution bill of rights and fundamental freedoms, including freedom of speech, religion, and the right to keep and bear arms. Number eight, prevent World War III, restore peace in Europe in the Middle East, and build a great iron dome missile defense shield over the entire country, all made in America. Man, the contracts for that are going to be nuts. Number nine, end the weaponization of government against the American people. Number ten, stop the migrant crime epidemic, demolish the foreign drug cartels, crush gang violence, and lock up violent offenders. Number eleven, rebuild our cities, including Washington, D.C., and make them safe, clean, and beautiful again. Number twelve, modernize our military, making it without question the strongest and most powerful in the world, like that one. Number thirteen, keep the U.S. dollar as the world's reserve currency, very important. Number fourteen, fight and protect Social Security and Medicare with no cuts, including no changes to the retirement age. Number fifteen, cancel the electronic vehicle mandate and cut costly burdensome regulations on EVs. Number sixteen, cut federal funding for any schools, pushing critical race theory, racial gender ideology, and any other inappropriate racial, sexual, political, or any kind of content on our children. Number seventeen, always one of the funny trump ones at the rally, keep men out of women's sports. Number eighteen, deport pro-homos radicals and make our colleges campuses safe and patriotic again. Number nineteen, secure elections, including the same day voting, voter identification, paper ballots, and proof of citizenship. And last but certainly not least, unite our country by bringing it to new record levels of success. So pretty easy there. Of course, everyone who didn't get their bullet point mentioned in the policy platform is parts of promises made. Keep out and cried about it yesterday and you never guess who was the leading proponent of it from the conservative side, Noah. Same people that let us down in twenty twenty two, I'll give you a hint. Stumped? Yeah, the pro lifers. Oh, of course. Yeah, again, now that this has come out and is confirmed as the RNC's adopted policy platform for the campaign moving forward, I'd like to say once again, stake for breakfast was right. Abortion never was going to be and now isn't a part of Donald Trump's main policy platform as part of his potential reelection campaign. Donald Trump made that promise to the American people to overturn Dobbs, did it in Roe v. Wade was overturned, even parlayed on it when it was sent back to the states. So in a federal system, they can make their own decisions on what appears on ballots, what's legal in the state, et cetera. And now Donald Trump wants to move on from it. It's such a simple way for all Republicans and conservatives who are running for public office. You go out, you make crystal clear what your personal feelings are regarding abortion and being pro life. And then you talk about what the laws of the land are and whatever state or district or wherever you're running in. And then you say, hey, it's up to the voters to change that if they want to change that. Donald Trump did that with his historic overturning of Roe v. Wade, and that's all you have to do in regards to this stuff. But again, they're out. Oh, Donald Trump said he was going to protect the babies. How much he overturned a ruling that for 50 years people said they were going to do and had didn't come within a mile of even getting close to overturning it. He did it in three years. And, you know, I saw Nancy Mase was on the news yesterday. She is a huge pro lifer. She is a huge supporter of Donald Trump. And she tried to rationalize this a little bit. We need to stop turning this into a five alarm fire and just move along with getting the policy platform pushed. And that she supports the current RNC's platform. So let's check it out. Well, this is a great amendment to the RNC platform, because here you have the most pro life president in US history, who also wants to protect life, but also add women and protect women and families to the platform. Adding IVF is a big deal for the Republican Party because the Democrats are saying that we don't support IVF and nothing could be further from the truth. And he's done this. And it's I think a welcome change for the vast majority of Americans, because when you look at where Joe Biden and Kamala Harris stand on abortion, they're on the far left fringes, the edges, they support abortion up until the birth of the child. Nobody in this country supports that. And what he's doing is very much a common sense platform. And he's the common sense president. I welcome this. But yeah, again, it makes a lot of sense. You know, there are going to be people that are never satisfied with anything that any politician wants to do. And again, here's a funny one Noah. You know, we talked about Amber Rose coming out and weirdly supporting Donald Trump recently. Well, she put out on all of her social medias yesterday that she will be a distinguished guest, which means either invited by Donald Trump, the RNC or both, to be a speaker at the RNC convention next week. Wow. Yeah. And she she is bought into how bad this country is. She wants a better place to raise her family in. And she's coming to support the former presidency looks to be the next president of the United States. So many people online yesterday. Oh, God, you know, she used to do this. She used to do naked pictures. And she does so much nasty stuff online and blah, who cares? People need to understand. We're not in the primary season anymore. The candidates are for national levels. Donald Trump is not running to be the president of the Republican Party. He's running to be the president of the United States. And if he's going to be successful in November, it's going to take Democrats and independents who have either changed their ways or know that work as a country not going in the right direction to not only win the election, but to make America great again. And for people to be so thick headed and naive and wanting attention by posting like certain people shouldn't come out, regardless of their political affiliation. Like people were complaining about Amber Rose, but all of these rappers that have come out for Donald Trump, dude, all they do is rap about sex and money. They do a lot of drugs and party. I don't care what they do in their personal lives. If they're going to use their massive platform as entertainers to bring more people in to support presidents. Well, hell yeah. I mean, does it mean that they're going to change overnight and quickly adopt all of the conservative principles that we find wholesome here on the show as things that they're going to apply in their everyday life? That's not for me to decide. And it shouldn't be for you, the listener either. If a former porn star that's not horse-faced Stormy Daniels wants to get off the Symbian and jump on the Trump train, well, then you should be for it. Because they're bringing something to the table that we don't normally get. We don't need just a ticket of tightasses here. We need a broad, diverse ticket of all Americans to show Joe Biden and the Democrats what they did in 2020 is unacceptable and moving forward. What we're going to be doing is going to be more historic and transparent than Joe Biden's administration does tell everybody they are every day. I mean, what do you think, though? You don't really care who comes aboard, right? I mean, Amber Rose is not endorsing Donald Trump for ill intentions. I mean, she is taking a big hit probably in the wallet by doing that. But I mean, she said it in that raw TMZ interview. Like, I've woken up. I'm not doing this. I'm not just going to listen to what a politician tells me and just walk in that direction anymore. I'm making decisions for myself. I think that's huge. Yeah, I mean, having all these people jump on board because they've woken up and seen how fucked the country is, all it does is illuminate for their fan bases that they can think for themselves. Yeah. Yeah. And you really need to be able to just kind of process a little bit what it means when people who normally don't even dabble in politics come out for somebody like Donald Trump, the most controversial political figure in the history of the planet, at least stateside, you know, and I just think it's really unfortunate that people want to make it about them. So I mean, I even see people online, like, I'm going to be at the RNC when she speaks. I'm going to turn my back to her. Do you think anybody gives a shit? They certainly don't. No, they don't. And it's not about that right now. It's about saving this country. And if you can't process that, then, you know, maybe you should spend a little bit more time in front of a mirror and saying the things that you talk about that positively supports Donald Trump and how saying things like that does not help him out in any way, shape or form. Because again, the Ambrose is speaking at the convention because the RNC invited her, Donald Trump invited her or both. So try to understand that, again, he's running for all Americans, not just at the top of the Republican ticket. And this is bigger than everyone who's listening to the show currently. Joe Biden has dropped to his lowest odds of winning the presidency via polymarket. Now, 53%. It was up damn near 80 before this all started. However, Joe Biden did receive endorsements from the House Hispanic caucus and the House Black Caucus on the Democrat side over the last 24 hours. I got one mega poll post to read. It's kind of got everything. And it's kind of weird to say mega poll after black caucus. Oh, I like it and I'll allow it nasty, nasty little man. 2024 presidential forecast. This was updated July 8th, which was yesterday from the economist, Electoral College, Donald Trump is forecasted right now at 305 Joe Biden 223. Remember threshold is 275 chances of winning Donald Trump 71% Joe Biden 28. Out of polymarket, this is Electoral College based on odds. Right now, Trump is at 297 Joe Biden 226 chances of winning Trump 62 Biden 20 Harris 7. JHK forecast, Electoral College Donald Trump 310 Biden 228 chances of winning Trump 73 Biden 27. 538 Electoral College Trump 295 Biden 242 chances of winning Trump 69 Joe Biden 30%. This is in desk HQ Electoral College Trump 285 Biden 253 kind of crappy, but we'll take it chances of winning Trump 60 new high from them Biden 40. And then 538 Electoral College Trump 271 Biden 267 chances of winning Trump 51 Biden 49 still within the margin of error. Let's talk about the swing states that was updated yesterday as well. Pennsylvania Trump 58 Biden 42 Wisconsin Trump 56 Biden 44 Michigan Trump 55 Biden 45 Arizona Trump 72 Biden 28 Georgia Trump 75 Biden 25 Nevada Trump 70 Biden 30 North Carolina Trump 79 Biden 81. We are now leaning Republicans out of the national averages in the swing state that not only is Donald Trump going to win at least six out of seven of those, but that means that Donald Trump will be winning the presidency in November. And then the vice presidential odds updated yesterday and the shift since June 30 Doug Bergham sits at first place 35% JD Vance 23% Ben Carson 13% Marco Rubio 10% Glenn young content percent of the background swami 7%. You got to take like at least three of those and ball them up and sprinkle the other over them the other candidates because, well, as far as the vacuum and Glenn the uncarder concern unless something is drastically changed it's neither one of them are being considered as finalists. So I read last night, no longer wearing the Trump wig, now just wearing some ridiculous makeup on all of our shows. You know Joe Biden in all of his news hits and speaking events throughout the weekend even when he met with the press gaggle before he got an Air Force one, following his rally up in Pennsylvania on Saturday. The elites are the ones trying to push him out and he wants to meet them head on because he's the delegate holder and therefore they can't do anything about it well she's having a meltdown. I guess as she's still riding with Biden, figuring that she could be the lead anchor on something. Once everybody at MSNBC is fired and thrown in gulags if Joe Biden can win back the presidency and goes after all the media that tried to take him out for the last couple months. Let's hear her going through it. All of that happened this weekend but please please privileged rich white elected Democrats you just keep publicly defenestating your party leader and president to feed the media thirst for Democrats and disarray stories because you're scared for your own seats and apparently don't know how to campaign on a surging economy high tech jobs and $35 insulin I mean you're the most important thing here right you and your donors of course not the actual voters in your party base who can't afford to see prices double on everything they buy due to Trump's China tariffs and who would be the first ones fired from their federal civil service jobs under Project 2025 or shot in the streets by Trump stormtroopers if they protest. You do you? You're a nasty person. I don't get why they keep trying to pin the Project 2025 shit to him. I don't know. I mean I know exactly why they do it because it's easy ammunition. Sure. I'm going to have a phone call with somebody who's closely associated to the conversation and I'll have a probably more clear answer for our listenership by Friday. I reached out over the weekend and we missed each other in phone calls but someone that knows what's going on. I'm going to get to the bottom of it and I'll put together a little stake footnote on it to read on the program on Monday. So Jerry Nadler, the Penguin himself, was not riding with Biden following the debates as publicly called for him to consider stepping down and elevating Kamala Harris to the top of the ticket nominee, etc. Went to head into the Democrat caucus closed-door meeting today talking about what they're going to do in regards to circling the wagon or spiraling the drain just so we kind of open the show with today. Although it's sometimes painful to listen to this fat slob from New York kind of rationalize anything he's weighing in on at least he's not fraudulently going after Republicans in committee. Let's check it out. You do not want the president to drop out? Sir, is your support for the president of pragmatic consideration given as the president said he will remain in? Well, yes, as the president said something like 90% Democratic voters in the primaries, he won the nomination, and that's going to be the matter. To why the reversal? Well, apparently he visited two other people who were doing the white house. You're changing your mind now. Sounds like there's a gun in his back. You should see him doing the big waddle as he tries to get away from the... As soon as he took two steps and they started asking follow-up questions, he just stopped because he knew it was going anywhere. The guy's got one gear and it's somewhere between first and second. What about the reversal? Why have you come back to Joe Biden? I'm not coming back to him. So you're not endorsing me alone. It's bad. It's bad. I'm changing KJP 95 minutes late, started the white house press briefing, and she's got the one elbow up on the podium. Her eyelids are halfway closed as she ingests questions from the press. I see Peter Ducey trying to give out this long, thoughtful question on reelection and hypotheticals and all this. She's like, "Listen, we're not going to do this again. We're clearing stuff up. Can't talk about doctors. Can't talk about Parkinson's. Can't talk about anything except our historic transparency." And that's kind of where the White House press pool is at today with KJP. So not good and very divided, I think, to say the very least. Van Jones, who's kind of been having a meltdown since, I mean, the debate we all played clips of him on the panel. Live on CNN afterwards. And, you know, he's kind of saying now what we're going to be, I think, cementing our narrative in is that Joe Biden is going to remain on the ticket outside of God forbid anything medically big time happening to him. And what they're essentially going to do is run Joe Biden as Kamala Harris to say, "Hey, listen, you might not love her, but we get her in. And then we get a vice president with her that you like, and we could, like, split it for the next four years. And as long as the world doesn't completely explode, then we could just have her be done. And we could have the vice president, which we'll all agree on, be elevated to the next top of the ticket item. Let's hear it. First and foremost, I'm sure you were able to listen to what President Biden just said, talking about all of the reasons why he believes he should be president again. But then at the end, saying, joking that he only looks 40 years old and that he's never been more optimistic if we stick together. Van Jones is like shaking his head. No, no. Well, look, I mean, he's still in the race and he's doing what he's supposed to do. I'm glad to see him out there. I'm glad he's doing interviews. I'm glad he's doing all those things. The challenge is that the numbers are not encouraging and the party is no longer united. You already have four House Democrats who are saying step down. You're going to have more. You're going to have more. Unfortunately, you're going to have the split screen of the president having NATO allies here and people in his own party looking at this math. As David Axelrod said, this time four years ago, Biden was up 10. He's down six. We needed that debate to turn things around. It did turn things around in a negative direction. And so I think that he's going to have to look in his heart. This is a party that loves him. I've never heard some people say about a politician. I love this man. Not just our respect. Not just our admire him. I love Joe Biden. He is beloved in this party. Oh, you hear that? And yet he may not be able to get us across the finish line. And I think people are hoping that he will recognize we're running Kamala Harris for president right now. She said, "That's who we're running." Nobody believes Joe Biden's going to be president in four years. And so we're in the worst possible world because she can't defend herself. She has to defend him. We can't defend her. We have to defend him. If we're basically running Kamala Harris anyway, let's run Kamala Harris and let her get out there and defend herself. Except that's where we are. The reality is, we are running Kamala Harris for president one way or the other. I'd rather run her for president in the strongest way rather than the weakest way. What do you think about that? It's interesting. Yeah. It's perspective that I think it's going to materialize a lot more concretely over the course of the last. Well, over the next several months, you know, that he talked about, I'm watching KJP right now in real time. She's referencing AOC and has someone who, you know, came out as a supporter of Joe Biden and hasn't flinched. She said the case is closed. The argument is over. Again, AOC this morning heading into the Democrat closed door conference. Joe Biden is our nominee. He is not leaving the race. He is in this race and I support him. The argument is over. Also, Crazy Bernie Sanders was on the news last night and is a quote from him. As of right now, Joe Biden is our president and the Democrat nominee until I hear differently. I support him. That's not really a very good endorsement, to be honest with you. Yeah, no. But as we're getting ready to wrap here and jump in with Oklahoma Congressman Josh Burkine and in our last audio clip of the day, I saw yesterday Scott Jennings who worked for a couple of different presidents. He's been in politics for essentially the entirety of his life. He was on CNN yesterday arguing that Joe Biden, in the big scheme of things, doesn't have a platform to run on. He talks about these jobs that he really didn't create. He talks about expanding NATO, which we know now isn't happening. They're not adding Ukraine. He talked about ending all these wars. Israel is getting ready to open up a second front into Lebanon and take on Hezbollah. While in Ukraine, you've got both leaders on both sides. One saying like Putin, I've won, let's end this. And Zelensky saying like, I don't want to die. Please end this. He ran on decency, empowering the middle class and uniting the country in the world. When you talk about his original campaign platform, and I hope the Trump team segues to this and starts playing all of those videos and all of those interviews he did where he talked about those three things and how it hasn't happened. Joe Biden has failed and really does have nothing to run on in a step. Fake numbers and fake news. Let's check it out. You give me too much credit. I wish I had some some billionaire friends. You got colleagues public and private who want Joe Biden to step down. You've got a lot of colleagues in your conference who want him to get out of the way. And what they're really saying is we don't have confidence in him to lead for the next four years, which really means they don't have confidence in him to lead today. This is not a campaign problem. This is a White House problem. There are real questions about whether he's acting independently. He said, by the way, in his interview with Stephen Oppelstee of the night, he wanted to do three things. Restore decency. Now he's got Hunter Biden running the White House senior staff meetings. He said he wanted to do something for the middle class. Hunter Biden's not running the world. That's crazy, Scott. I'm sorry. I'm just reading the journalism. I'm projournalist here. I'm reading the journalism about Hunter Biden running the ship here. He said he wanted to help the middle class. They're being ravaged by record inflation. And he said he wanted to unite the country, and he is the most divisive, unpopular president in the modern era. He has failed by his own standards, and now his own party is petrified that you're headed for a historic wipeout in the fall. Now I think they're dug in like Alabama ticks. I don't think the family's going anywhere. Even his Democrats want him to get out of the way because they know what's coming. Let me bring. I should have asked Republican Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville about Alabama ticks today. But no, that's it. And that's kind of the state of the nation where we're at right now. You know, I'm watching this White House press briefing has been going on for 15 minutes now. And all she's doing is talking about doctors and medical examinations and whose name they can't say. And it's every American's rights to get their physicals and keep the results private. It's just a little bit different when you're talking about the chief executive of the world here. But that's either here or there. Wait, but vaccination status, that was a big thing, wasn't it? Sure wasn't. Lots of chaos, but the good kind of chaos for once. You know, and for even as much as the MTG caucus wants to create a little issue here or there up in the House of Representatives, I think we're going to get past it. We've got a lot of stuff to celebrate. President Trump's rallying tonight. VP event on Thursday up in Pennsylvania on Saturday, and then he'll be heading out to Milwaukee for the Republican National Convention. So we're going to leave it at that as we get ready to wrap show one and jump in with Oklahoma Congressman, Josh Burkine, but before we do, a final check in with one of our partners. It's an unpleasant truth that 42% of Americans are obese and 79% of Americans are overweight. That's practically one in every two Americans living day to day with every minute counting down to the end of an unhealthy existence. It's time to change that and make Americans healthy again.

Make America healthy again. Alright, joining us next on the show today. He's the Congressman who represents Oklahoma's 2nd Congressional District. We're always excited to catch up and have a great conversation with Representative Josh Burkine. Welcome back to the show. Thanks, Ron. Glad to be back with you. Always a pleasure, sir. You know, we've got a bunch of stuff to talk about. I think where America is at right now and where a lot of the sole focus is on is some of the fallout from the first presidential debate. What happened? The soft coup that Joe Biden is currently incurring over the course of the last week or so. It didn't even get easier this week as he had, you know, jumped on a couple of media hits. One with George Stephanopoulos. He was on Scarborough show yesterday. And it seems like for as much as they want to let him talk and kind of legitimize the, you know, want for him to retain his candidacy and redefine the fact that he is still the President of the United States. Technically, Joe Biden is getting a lot of pushback from some of his own constituents within the party. Some of the biggest donors on the planet and obviously from the media who feel like, you know, not that they've been duped because we all know they're complicit in covering up for Joe Biden's mental acuity and things of that nature over the course of the last three years. But now that it's been made public, they're kind of standing there like the emperor with no clothes and they're trying to hold Joe Biden and his team accountable. So from your office's standpoint, Congressman, you've seen this all shake out in real time. America now knows more than likely what those Robert Herr tapes sound like that we still can't get released from Merrick Garland because they got to see it for 90 minutes during the debate. But how are you looking at this situation developing with the President of the United States? And how concerning is it to you that this is the man that's now supposedly in charge of the nuclear code in the chief executive of the planet? Yeah, it's very concerning. He demonstrates that he has big gap moments where he is not able to finish sentences when he starts talking about his fight against Medicare. And he lost himself in trying to describe his position. So yeah, it's very concerning. He came out this morning and said that he was not going to remove himself in the ticket in letter form. And I'm excited for the prospect of him being able to be the person that is holding the banner for these ideologies because if America doesn't wake up with a harm to his ideology, it's bringing forth no matter who's executing it, speaking about his staff and doesn't try on himself with him. And then hopefully they're going to be alarmed at just him as an individual. And so we have got to have a radical change back to common tips and man, they can't come happen quick enough. No, I mean, you make an excellent point there. And then outside of Kamala Harris, who a lot of people, you know, are fighting behind closed doors on whether or not she'd be a legitimate candidate. I mean, we all know while watching the 2020 cycle, she was one of the least popular presidential candidates essentially in the history of modern politics. She pulled it around 2%. She got out before Iowa, which is before her own state of California. Once you figured the place, I believe, fifth in at the time. And you know, outside of that, the Democrat bench, albeit deep ish, there's a lot of governors there. But there's also a lot of people in America who remember how tyrannical these governors were, especially during the COVID pandemic. In addition to that, they'd have to defend and accept Joe Biden's presidency, which kind of tells you, you know, with only four months until we head to the ballot box congressman. It's not much of a campaign to have to go out there and defend record inflation, open borders, crime in the streets and broken down geopolitics all over the planet. So what do you think when they are kind of shuffling behind the scenes? We still think that for the most part, Joe Biden's going to remain in the nominee outside of something health related. But, you know, when you talk about all these people in the media who are trying to push the narrative of its Gavin Newsom or Gretchen, et cetera, you know, you also run the risk of running and losing against Donald Trump, which would disenfranchise the candidate for the 2028 cycle as well. What do you think about that? I think the Democrats are as nervous as a long-tailed cat in a room full of rocket chairs. I catch them in private and, you know, when the cameras not around and not naming names, it's evident, they're nervous. They know they know they've got a problem. They know the damage of the border. You know, there's a reason why the American people have become so awakened because of the border, because once a week you have another story about it, you know, 13-year-old, 15-year-old, great murdered. And then, you know, just with what's happening with the nationalities that are coming across the southern border that we know come from countries that hate us and would be more than apt to be involved in Paris. So, the border is a glaring example of misplaced priorities in sanity, and they're nervous because of just the weakness of the candidate at the top in addition to what he believes. Yeah, that's wild to see this whole process. I mean, for all of you guys that have gotten bad fake press for over the course of Joe Biden's presidency, you know, the media could just make up any narrative about the House of Representatives, the infighting, the chaos. When you guys were trying to do stuff for the American people passing things like HR1, HR2, the Save Act, the Lake and Riley Act, et cetera, you know, and now to see them running that kind of same disinformation campaign against themselves and their own candidates. It's pretty funny to watch it, you know, materializing real time as, you know, some of them have to actually practice journalism now, and it's not as easy as one would think when you've had the luxury of, you know, just pushing out fake news over the course of the last eight plus years, and especially regarding the House Republicans, the Senate and Donald Trump as well. Yeah, look, I watched the CNN interview with Adam Schiff and one of their top hard-hitting interviewers, where you're used to them going after Republicans was putting pressure on Adam Schiff to answer the question, should Joe Biden remove himself? Should Joe Biden remove himself? He never would get a clear answer. Adam Schiff kept saying, "Well, it needs to be the President's decision, but those that are the closest to him that have outside eyes need to be getting, you know, in his ear and talking to him and letting him make the right decision. I know Joe Biden will do the right," and that was his talking point. Joe Biden would do the right thing, and the letter this morning says Joe Biden is going to make sure he stays in the ticket. So, you know, Adam Schiff all but wanted to say he needs to jump off. I'm running a few United States Senate, you know, from his viewpoint, and I'm concerned what he'll do to, you know, our chances to maintain the majority across the nation, but he wouldn't say it, but they're all thinking it. No, it's the truth. And then last follow-up, I kind of wanted to ask on this topic. Now, we're a week out from the start of the Republican National Convention. Donald Trump, the presumptive nominee, will officially gain the title and head out of the blocks from that event down in Milwaukee, looking stronger than ever before, not just in polling, but how he fared against Joe Biden in their head-to-head matchup in the first debate, et cetera. How good of a feeling is it to see so many Republicans, especially in the House, come around whether they, you know, supported or endorsed other candidates along the campaign trail, you know, finally coalescing behind Donald Trump. One comes to mind outside of the House as Governor Glenn Yunken. Just last week, you know, they ideologically maybe not have seen eye-to-eye or been on the same page about a lot of things over the years, but the fact of the matter is, I think, Glenn Yunken, like a lot of Republicans understand that this election is unique. It's time to be bold and brave and not focus on your ego or hurt feelings, but the benefit of the country and where it can go if we can take back the White House, retain the House majority and flip the Senate. And it seems like, as far as getting on board and supporting Donald Trump in his quest to retake back the White House, it seems like, you know, an overwhelming majority of Republicans are finally on the same page and moving in the right direction. Yeah, I mean, I think people will see the momentum. They know that Donald Trump has the backing of the conservatives across the country. The moderate Republican Party also, whether it's out of fear because they really believe in what he's doing, you know, that's under their own motives to figure out. But, you know, conservatives, I'm excited about the growth potential that he brings, the ability to inject confidence in our economy that so desperately needs that. What I want us to the House to do, though, Rome, we have to lead on spending cuts. I think Donald Trump's great strength is customer business background. He will come in with growth and what I think he will do with regulatory reform like he did in his first turn. What I want to see the House do is partner with him and to compliment him by bringing about fiscal restraint. They say, yes, we're going to have growth, but we're also going to go back. And my hope is we'd have the courage to go back to pre-COVID type spending levels and say, look, we're going to reverse the curse of the last three and a half, four years under Biden, where we plussed up the discretionary budget 30% and never returned back to original levels after coping was over with. It's while we're in $2 trillion deficit. My hope is that the legislature will compliment the strength of our president. No, that's a great point. Getting back to that pre-COVID spending is something that I think would, in addition to, you know, the deregulations that we're going to see the proposal of budget moves that Donald Trump and House Republicans collaborating together would want to make. It would put such a shot in the arm to the domestic economy here would get a lot of the economy and the rest of the planet. That's essentially, you know, off tilt right now and get things running in a direction where America's going to start making money again and being economically a leader in the world instead of where we're at right now, which is like, you know, beg and I ran in Venezuela for cheaper rates on oil because the only way to lower prices is to sell off another million or here another million there out of the strategic oil reserve. So you make a great point. And, you know, I heard you mentioned talk about border security in the beginning of your opening response. I do want to kind of touch back on that as well as, I mean, our listenership knows you sit on the Homeland Committee and it's something that we're heavily focused here on on the show. So, you know, since Joe Biden signed the executive order, we've seen a lot less coverage of what's going on down on the border. And it seems to be like a lot of the illegals who were crossing in the wilderness and, you know, meeting and greeting with all of the independent journalists are out there are now being funneled into the ports of entry using the CBP one app into airports, nearly 50 of them across the country via Biden flights. And then, of course, you have the getaways and the walkaways of the people who don't really get processed and DHS knows very little about, you know, it's something that this is going to be a critical issue heading into election day as a top ticket item for a lot of voters. It's also going to be something that's going to be heavily focused on for House Republicans come the start of the 119th session next year. So I just kind of wanted to get where your office was taking a look at this on. I mean, I'm pretty sure, you know, the way you look at it is that Joe Biden's executive order is unacceptable. But, you know, in the meantime, there are some ways to continue to track this as we get to head up into election season right now. Yeah, San Diego gave us your four doctors executive order came in that said that 100 out of 195 countries that the Biden administration has told them do not deport anyone from these countries, 100 different countries. And so you have people that the professionals that are saying there's some smoke in mirrors, and that they're just rerouting people that were coming through where the cameras are catching them now through the use of their app. You know, on their phone, give them their data, come through port of entry, whereas before they, you know, that was still illegal under under the process of the Biden administration and illegal is not an illegal up is down and left is right. But in terms of what I want to see us transition to, we have to have a new president, we have to have a new Congress, Democrats that are leading the Senate after your placement Republicans. And, and if we can get the three branches working in tandem, then it's not enough to close the border. We've got to close the border. We've got to deport. That's the, that's the hurricane the task ahead of us now with the 10 million plus under the last four years, three and a half years. We're going to have to deport these people. There are so many that are a danger to us, but they're a, you know, charge of physical danger. But there's also the long term danger of letting us out of the generation of direction with our elections. And that's why the Democrats are doing this. They want to fundamentally transform this country. We've seen it happen in Europe, where they've allowed invaders to come in and they didn't take the country in from the outside. They took it all from within. Correct. And that's what's going to happen if we don't displace 10 million out of 334 million Americans. It only takes 750,000 people to win a congressional district to be the, you know, half that to be the majority of the congressional district. These people are moving to high population areas. We are losing rule areas that are represented by Democrats over 10 years, picking up more Democrats that represent these high urban areas where they think where cities are. The ideology is going to be influenced greatly by these people. You have to take into consideration the fact to, you know, when you talk about what Democrats are trying to do. You know, there have been so many rules that have been skirted regarding to registering a lot of these people. You know, reports coming out of just about every country in the union that's saying that every time someone can register to get a driver's license or is going through the paper processing, you know, through their work authorization and stuff like that, they're being automatically registered to vote. I know the SAVE Act is, you know, Senator Lee is doing a huge push right now to try and get it in the Senate. But let's just say for the sake of receipts, enough Democrats get on board to where this can pass the Senate. Do you think that Joe Biden in this election cycle would even consider signing something like that? It depends on it if he thinks that that could make people forget three and a half years of open borders. That's a good point. The only way he would be on the plate, that level of politics at this point, he's so far under water politically, he knows it. And he wouldn't do it because he believes it and he would do it because he would note that that could confuse voters. That's a good point. And then when you talk about some of the assaults on, you know, things that make this country great, the assault on American energy has been something the Biden administration has done since day one. Basically hand in hand with what they've done in regards to their policies on the border. You know, they've ended pipeline deals, they've sold off tens of millions of barrels from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. You know, up to a point just last week before a federal judge stuck in, you know, their next method of attack was against liquid natural gas. Now, I know this is something that you track very greatly, but I mean, we're looking to get back to American energy independence next year and hopefully cruise towards American energy dominance shortly thereafter. But, you know, what Joe Biden has done to the American people in regards to the energy sector, he's done decades worth of damage in a very short amount of time. Yeah, he has. If you look last week where he unilaterally was cutting off liquefied natural gas exports, what after the court said, "Now, you can't do that. You don't have the authority to do that." A president can't legislate outside congressional authority, no brainer, but this president does it time and time again. They get a course that stops that. And then if you read the press relation, the president's office, they came out and said, "Look, okay, I'm generalizing. That's okay. We got the Department of Energy. We'll just, we'll just permit them to death." Yep. Yeah, it's something that, you know, if President Trump can make it back to the White House for January and, you know, just the deregulations alone are going to automatically help that. You think he'd be revisiting a lot of those contracts, the federal ones that Joe Biden had canceled. He's probably been talking with conservative governors throughout the country on things that they could do in their states. And then, you know, Joe Baby drill is one of the things that he's campaigned on for three election cycles now. So we would hope that in 2025 we start to see a lot of that. Congressman, last thing I want to talk to you about, you know, you've recently collaborated with one of our favorite congressmen, also a guest from the show from out of Montana. And that's Rep Rosendale in regards to trying to get some answers out of the CDC director, Mandy Cohen, in regards to what's going on with IVF. Can you give our listenership a little bit of update, you know, on the distribution of your letter, which I guess you reiterated to them. They've ignored for a while back in the first week of July, but where we kind of stand with it today? Yeah, in vitro fertilization is what we're talking about. And we want people to be able to utilize the science to be able to help people that are infertile to have a child. So we want to see that continue. We also want to see the information that we think believe is occurring where children are being, heroes are being aborted because they don't have certain eye colors that they're picking people out for hair color and eye color. And Matt Rosendale is dead, and he believes that we may be having more loss of lives discarded at embryos through this process, through IVF, and it's actually happening through Planned Parenthood. And so what we're doing is we're trying to get the information that CDC is not gathering or it's not been forthcoming as to what stats that they know of. And if they don't know of these stats, at least the level with the American people, let us know. But it's a wild west in terms of the way this procedure works. It's about money, and it is a very extensive, expensive process. And I get that, but at the end of the day, what is the role of government according to our declaration of independence, the role of government is to secure the rights of life that we should have happened. And that is in tandem with our constitution. Our constitution ends with the wording in the year of our Lord 1776, end of the 12th. Well, what does the 12th mean? The 12th means go back 12 years to the declaration of independence, our birth certificate. And it's our birth certificate that says that we are created equal. And down by our creator, certain unalien rights amongst a lot of liberty and pursuit of happiness that secure these rights, governments are instituted among men. And it is the role of government to secure the rights of life. So for as much as Democrats want a campaign that Republicans are using political campaigns to take away women's rights and not protect children and stuff, Republicans are actually the ones out there going between the lines and through the headlines and actually protecting women's rights to their bodies and protecting babies out there.
