- Monkey, this is not nom, this is bowling, there are rules. - Hey, hey, hey, junior, America! (upbeat music) - Steak. - Four! - Batheist! - So stand by. - Now, all right, everybody, welcome back to the State for Breakfast podcast, second of two big Friday editions of the show today. I'm Ron, flying solo, don't worry, everyone. No, we'll be back next week. If you're here in this episode for the first time, we'll see you in a bit. Press pause, jump back over, and check out episode 434 of the podcast. That was our first show today. We hosted Georgia Congressman Mike Collins. We also caught up with the National Communications and Media Director for the Center for Renewing America. And basically the woman who's in charge of the DC Young Republicans, it's Kingsley Wilson. Had some great interviews with both of them, talked about Kamal Harris getting her national and AstroTurf campaign off the ground. In addition, how America reacted to said rollout. In this edition of the podcast, we're getting things started in the Wolverine State. And we're gonna be starting off the show with an interview with none other than the former Michigan gubernatorial candidate and host of the Tudor Dixon podcast. She's joining us for the first time, Tudor Dixon. Welcome to the show. - Thank you so much for having me. - Been a big fan for a long time. Track you heavily in the midterm election cycle back in 2022. Love your podcast, seen you speak at many America first and conservative events before Trump rallies, et cetera. And we're very thankful that you were able to join us today. We have a lot to talk about. Getting into the nitty gritty here with this presidential race. So the tickets are finalized. I guess on the Democrat side for the time being, you still have the chance of-- - We think. - Something can happen next week at the DNC, but who knows? But listen, now that the matchup is there and the fake polls have kind of leveled out, we're here on Friday, we're seeing all the polls back to one point or even or Donald Trump up again. I think the economy and the poor choice of a pick and Governor Walls was not good for Kamal Harris as nothing has been since she's rolled out. Not like you're gonna hear that in the media, but you'll hear it here. I just kind of want to get your take on, now that we see this ticket in real time, how you feel about it and what we kind of need to do to be on the offensive instead of worrying about reacting to whatever the Democrats have been doing. - Well, I'm glad that Kamal Harris chose not to hide from her real true progressive values. And that's what we saw when she made this choice in Tim Walls. That's exactly, she wanted to go as far left as she could. She decided she was going to do that. And I honestly think that the party was really pushing for Shapiro and she went the direction of Walls because I think she was kind of like, she was gonna, dumber knows that those folks and say, you haven't done anything for me, I'm gonna go my own way. That's important for us to make sure we're getting that out there because this guy is very radical and people say, oh, you can't say he's radical. No, actually, I can say he's radical because I can take a look at what he's done in Minnesota. I can take a look at his love for sanctuary states, his desire to give free healthcare to illegal immigrants, his desire to give free or to give driver's licenses to illegal immigrants. And I can point to that and say very much so that this is not somebody who is going to protect our national security, but also look at his love for China and his relationship with the Chinese government. That is also incredibly scary. She's not hiding from this, she knew this. That's what we need to know. She knew this going into this. This is who she is. She is aligned completely with Governor Wals and it's a very radical ticket. - You know, and you heard some of that in the rollout, the boilerplate, bullet points for the Democrat party, this election is really about abortion and gun control and climate stuff, et cetera, when they don't want to mention the economy or the unsafeness of the streets, the unsecuredness of the US Southern border, how we failed geopolitically since Joe Biden and Kamala Harris took office. And you know, heading into the DNC, we probably will hear a lot of that, that they are the party of law and order, and you know, they have plans to fix the border and economy. If only those MAGA Republicans will get on board and do what they need to do to pass legislation, that essentially would give millions of people amnesty, but that's just kind of the way they operate. Now, as they head into the DNC and that messaging change, I see a lot of people on social media at Tudor, and I know you're out there checking this all out, complaining about President Trump and that he hasn't done enough since Kamala Harris, you know, rolled out the completion of her ticket heading into the DNC. Now, the Trump team had always planned on taking time off during the DNC because every major network, including the conservative ones, are pretty much contractually obligated to cover these events 24/7. They're gonna get the same amount of coverage on Fox News. As you got for the RNC, you're gonna see all the speeches, all the people that are there. And instead of, you know, wasting time and money by doing these huge rallies in places during the DNC, I feel like President Trump's gonna hit the ground running pretty hard and heading up into the month of September, which is where we need them down the home stretch, looking strong as ever. But that still comes with, you know, we have to have a plan here and we need to get everybody on the same page. It seemed like where the party was coalescing pretty smoothly, heading into the Republican National Convention. Everybody kind of wants to, you know, make their two cents heard. And it's not really the time for that. It's time for activism. It's time for involvement. And it's time to, you know, pretty much swallow our egos and just suck it up until election day. And I think, you know, that's pretty much a winning ticket in the best way that we could all support President Trump. - Absolutely. So let me assure people that right now there is definite planning going on behind the scenes as to what the best way to tackle this is. Because obviously a huge change. All of a sudden they rip their candidate off the ticket and they put a new person on. So there has to be a little bit of a step back and say, okay, now we're against a whole new opponent now. We need all the information. But not only that, at the same time, we've just announced our vice presidential pick and we want to make sure people get out there and get to know him. Everybody knows President Trump. President Trump doesn't need to be doing rallies every day. I think it's a genius move to have JD Vance out there trolling Kamala Harris. Because everywhere she goes, the media has to talk to JD Vance. It's beautiful. I think it's very strategic. It's well planned out for people who aren't understanding that. There is a reason to make sure people know JD as compared to what we're getting in a governor's walls right now. This is a strategic plan on the part of the Trump campaign. But also you have Trump come out and say, you know what, I could do a rally every weekend and some networks are going to take it. Some networks aren't. But I'm going to have a press conference and I'm going to address the people on every single network and I'm going to take every question. You know what he proved in doing that the other day? He proved that he can take every question, that he can talk about every subject, that he has it right at the top of his mind, that he is sharp on every single possible issue that could come up nationwide or globally and Kamala Harris can't. She doesn't know that stuff. - No, you're absolutely right. And I think that's a great point you make about JD Vance, you know, he's only been in the political arena for a couple of years. You know, he's taken a long journey from being like a never-trumper to being the vice presidential nominee with President Trump on the same ticket. I think it's great to see the evolution of JD Vance, but again, like you alluded to, he needs to be reintroduced to the American people. He needs to make everybody feel rest assured that he's not only capable in supporting Donald Trump on the ticket, but you know, being that counter punch to Kamala Harris and her selection of Governor Walsh. So I think moving forward, that's good. But when you talk about this BP matchup, I mean, listen, a lot of this, if not the entirety of who's gonna win the White House is gonna be determined probably in the Blue Wall States, the Rust Belt and all the places adjacent up there. You know, a couple hundred thousand votes scattered across a couple of states and communities and counties and bellwethers is gonna determine electorally, probably who goes to the White House in January. So when you talk about what Governor Walsh brings to the table and you outlined some of it already, but then the counter punch of JD Vance, it seems like it's pretty cut and dry. They are night and day. It's two opposite sides of the coin. It's America first, it's nationalism. It's, you know, all that good stuff that we saw in President Trump's first term. And then you have Governor Walsh, who just seems to cater to the most radical portion of the party, but when they match up head to head, how do you look at it? - Well, I think it's very interesting. When you look at JD Vance and his history, growing up in rural America, very poor, having a grandfather who worked in a job that at this point by the Biden administration and the Obama administration has probably been shipped overseas. And this is a comparison of a vice president who loves the place that they've been shipped, which is China. So I think the comparison is very stark when you see that JD Vance has been fighting for the American worker, but also for Americans who are suffering from drug addiction, his own life story is a story of an overcomer. It's the American story. You cannot say that about Tim Walsh. This is a guy who is the opposite of the American story. He grew up, he went to China. He moved to China. He has his wedding day on the anniversary of a massacre of the Tiananmen Square Massacre purposely, intentionally, so that he could remember it. He was there. He is a China fanatic. The guy is romanced by this type of dictator government and communism. This is very scary. JD Vance is about America. He's about peace through strength. He's talked about this. His experience on the national stage is incredible. He went from growing up poor to going to Yale. I love the fact. I love the fact that the Harris Waltz campaign has decided to say this guy's not a regular guy. He went to Yale. He is the American dream. How dare you try to take Yale away from the average American? How dare you say that that is only for the certain few elites? These people are so sure of themselves. They're so obsessed with the elites that they think that a guy like JD Vance didn't deserve it. It is exactly who they are. We cannot let people forget that they belittle anybody who isn't a part of their elite system and they want to take from the poor and give to the rich. Look at Waltz's record as governor of Minnesota. He just did this. He just said, you know what? Instead of having free and reduced lunch for the kids that need it, I want to take money from the taxpayers and give free lunch to all the rich kids. All the kids that needed it had it. He's taking from the poor and giving to the rich. - Now it's wild to see the way his track record has been kind of exposed. We haven't even touched on the stolen valor stuff. It's going to be really interesting to see if they're able to outrun this and kind of get it under the rug further enough in the DNC to come out of it and look towards the future, which is where I want to go next. I mean, the next big thing on the schedule outside the Democrat National Convention is the debates. Donald Trump wants to do three. I think America deserves more than one. It seems like the Harris team only wants to do the ABC News debate, which is very hostile territory for President Trump, probably more so than CNN because the lawsuits he's got set up with them and against George Stephanopoulos. But listen, Donald Trump did a masterclass against Joe Biden. He essentially let him hang himself out to dry, you know, not being able to finish sentences, wrong reference points, wrong dates, et cetera. And he has to kind of take the same thing and not get emotionally involved to the responses when it comes to Kamala Harris. But I think when you point out that Donald Trump four years ago did the things that they've wrecked for the last three and a half years now, it should seem like a pretty good matchup of him being able to point out all the, you know, failures of the Biden-Harris administration, but it's still going to be under very hostile premise, don't you think? - Of course, yes. And that's the problem for any Republican who goes up in a debate against anyone else. First of all, you have the Democrats that push it off until the early voting started. They don't want to actually debate. I think she has to debate on September 10th, but she has to give the other two debates as well. Because they are afraid of having to speak to their own record. So of course she agrees to the hostile debate. She's like, I at least have some defenders here. I will at least have somebody going after Trump. It won't be me. She has to agree to the other two because she won't speak to the media. She won't answer for her record right now. This is the only way to get her to answer for her record. You know what, Donald Trump doesn't need the debates. I mean, the beauty of it is he doesn't actually need the debates. He's not asking for the debates because he wants to prove himself. Everybody knows who Donald Trump is. He wants people to have to see who Kamala Harris is. And this has been bizarre, putting her into off or putting her into this position, placing her annoying to her as the nominee and then asking her nothing and then holding her accountable for nothing. This media propaganda media has been outrageous. Of course she has to do this. Of course, Donald Trump is going to force her to do this because she has so much to answer to for the last three and a half years that have destroyed this country. And she has been at the home because we know Joe Biden has certainly hasn't been. He's been sitting in the corner with his bowl of ice cream. - Yeah, it's sad to see the decline of Joe Biden. I mean, you don't want that for any world leader, especially here when it's essentially the chief executive of the planet when you're the president of the United States. And then last thing I wanted to touch with you on Tudor, I think this is very important. Michigan is going to be one of the most hotly contested states in this upcoming election. Those electoral votes could make her break, run for the White House here and secure the presidency for President Trump. Whether it's the steel manufacturing industry, agriculture, the auto workers industry, et cetera, there are a lot of things that are going to be able to prosper under Donald Trump in a second term in office. I know he's going to be in Michigan stumping hard several times between now and November 5. But I just want you to tell our listenership a little bit about what's going on on the ground there and what our listenership who is very active here on stake for breakfast could do to continue to get involved and support, you know, not only the candidates that are running in Michigan for the House of Representatives and the US Senate, but President Trump and beyond. - Well, we've got to start telling the truth on the Democrats and making sure people understand, I mean, in Michigan right now that they've just passed this new minimum wage for restaurant workers, it's going to be much higher. There's going to be, there's not going to be tips anymore. Restaurants across the state, we already lost 3,000 during COVID, restaurants across the state are saying, gosh, we'll lose at least 30 to 40% more of our restaurants. This is our ability to bring people into the state. It's not just our ability to bring people into the state to the vacation. It's to get people to come here and say, hey, this is a place of community. Our communities are being destroyed. We need to be able to reduce prices. We need to get people back to work. We need to make sure that it is less expensive to be here. And that communities, that companies can come into to this state and be able to have semi-trucks on a road that is not crumbling. This is a disaster. We need Trump to come in and talk about economy, to talk about infrastructure, and to talk about national security. That's what we need other people to come in, help us, help us doorknock. We need people on the ground to do this for sure. I just want to say one more thing about you said. It is sad to see somebody in decline when you said that about President Biden. You know what, we knew this in 2019. The Democrats knew this in 2019. Certainly it is sad to see someone aged, but he never should have been in the position of president. And that goes directly to Kamala Harris. She knew it, she let it happen, she put us in danger. - You know, the way they've rolled this whole thing out, almost seamlessly, you know, her candidacy, the delegates, the VP pick, almost uncontested. You know, you talk about the polls that came out immediately following it. They didn't know the economy was gonna tank on Monday. They didn't know things between Iran and Israel were gonna heat up over the weekend. And they didn't know that that many people were gonna be disappointed that she picked Governor Wallace to be her vice presidential pick. And now as the, you know, polls come out just a few days later, it shows that any kind of honeymoon or bump that she may have had heading into the DNC are essentially erased. And I think they're actually a lot more honest and accurate. So that's an awesome point you made right there. And one that we keep reminding our listenership who might be a little bit discouraged because it seems like the Dems are getting all the TV time now. Tudor, this has been great catching up with you for the first time. We hope at some point in the future you'll be able to come back. We've got live links to your website and your podcast in the show description today. Anybody wants to follow you on social media and check out all the great work you're doing. Where can I find ya? - Yeah, go to Tudor Dixon at Tudor Dixon on Twitter, at Tudor Dixon on Facebook, or the TudorDixonpodcast.com. - This is the host of the Tudor Dixon podcast. Tudor Dixon, thanks for joining us today. Have a great weekend. - Thank you. - The presidency was taken away from Joe Biden and I'm no Biden fan, but I'll tell you what, from a constitutional standpoint, from any standpoint you look at, they took the presidency away. And people were saying he lost after the debate. He couldn't win. Well, I don't know that that's true necessarily, but whether he could win or he couldn't win, he had the right to run and they took it away. They said they're gonna use the 25th Amendment. They're gonna hit you hard. Either we can do it the nice, I heard, I know exactly 'cause I know a lot of people on the other side, believe it or not. And they said we'll do it the nice way or we'll do it the hard way. And he said, all right. So that, I mean, they've really taken, what they've done is pretty incredible. - All right, getting the news portion of our podcast kicked off second of two big editions of "Stake for Breakfast." And again, 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. This is "Stake for Breakfast." I'm Ron, flying solo today. Don't worry, no, we'll be back on Tuesday. And we're gonna jump right into this here. Kicking off the show. What a phenomenal segment with former Michigan gubernatorial candidate in the host of the "Tutor Dicks and Podcasts." "Tutor Dicks and joining us for the first time, someone we've tracked heavily." Since the 2022 midterm election cycle. And that was President Trump, who held a major press conference and questioned and answered session with the press yesterday down at Mar-a-Lago at Palm Beach. He was talking about Joe Biden and the coup that was ran against him. Listen, can't say that he's wrong. I mean, you've had Nancy Pelosi come out and do some of these weird interviews. I've got some saved, I think, for our next new segment where it's almost impossible to deny the fact that they gave Joe Biden an ultimatum. You either get out the way we're gonna tell ya, or we're gonna 25th amend me, yeah. And it's still yet to be seen. What the end result of all this is? Is someone going to leak? Is someone gonna provide receipts? We played that clip last week where Nancy's like, oh no, I didn't call anybody on a phone. I didn't call anybody, I didn't text anybody, I didn't send any correspondence. I'm sure it's gonna be very hard to find some receipts on what actually transpired behind the scenes. 'Cause you know it was a knockdown drag out fights from the Biden side to release his grip on the presidency. And now people are starting to, I guess, drip, drip, drip, that they're even trying to get Joe Biden out of the White House by late September. So Kamala Harris can have a little bit of the training wheels taken off and see what it's like to have a crack at the presidency between October and January, and depending on how the election turns out, where she goes from there. Donald Trump would continue to stick in that thread, but segue quickly to Kamala Harris, talking about it's weird to him, how someone is being propped up in such a positive light now, who number one has been, well, number two for the last three and a half years as Joe Biden's vice president. And secondly, didn't receive one primary vote during the entire election cycle, let's check it out. - Most dangerous period of time I've ever seen for our country. With that being said, we have somebody that hasn't received one vote for president and she's running. And that's fine with me. But we were given Joe Biden, and now we're given somebody else. And I think, frankly, I'd rather be running against somebody else, but that was their choice. They decided to do that because Kamala's record is horrible. She's a radical left person at a level that nobody's seen. She picked a radical left man that is, he's got things done that he has positions that are just not, it's not even possible to believe that they exist. He's going for things that nobody's ever even heard of, heavy into the transgender world, heavy into lots of different worlds, having to do with safety. He doesn't want to have borders. He doesn't want to have walls. He doesn't want to have any form of safety for our country. He doesn't mind people coming in from prisons and neither does she, I guess, because she's not, she couldn't care less. She's the borders are, by the way, she was the borders are 100%. And all of a sudden, for the last few weeks, she's not the borders are anymore, like nobody ever said it. - Mm, gotta keep hammering her on that, 'cause when you're talking about policy, that's one of the things that she was 100% of the in charge of, and this was good for Donald Trump, because he really needs to stay prevalent in the face of the media. There were so many, again, we talked about it to kick off our first edition of the podcast today. Just people do me online, do me in the press, and to think that Donald Trump would have some kind of robust and rigorous schedule right before or during the Democrat National Convention. It makes little to no sense. It would receive little to no coverage, and the only thing I could see coming out of it is those in the non-conservative press and the media using it as talking points during their coverage of the DNC to say, "Oh God, here's Donald Trump "talking about her ethnicity again. "Oh God, here's Donald Trump calling her, "the borders are." Oh my gosh, did you see what Donald Trump said about this, that or the other thing? It doesn't land the blows you want. You want the Democrats over the course of the next week and a half to completely expose themselves for what they are, and I personally think that there's going to be maybe not too much, but a little bit of drama at the DNC. It's already been reported that as many as 12 members of Congress aren't showing up to the DNC because they're more worried about their races respectfully and individually than they are about attending the National Convention. In addition, there are probably a lot of people in the party who behind closed doors aren't okay with the way the new presidential ticket looks or the methodology that was used to get there, but in the meantime, they're going to keep their mouth shut. This is an election not about who Kamala Harris is or what Kamala Harris is. This is an election about policy. Where this country is at right now and what needs to change to make America great again. Donald Trump got quickly into that yesterday down at Mar-a-Lago, let's check it out. - Don't miss, you're saying today you're not going to change a campaign strategy. You're going to keep going with the issues. But what if the so-called honeymoon period doesn't end? - Oh, it's going to-- - You can't break away. - The honeymoon period is going to. Look, she's got a little period. She's got a convention coming up. It's about policy. It's not about her. I think she's incompetent because I've watched her. She destroyed California. She destroyed San Francisco. Everything she's touched has turned to bad things. I'm not going to use foul language. But everything she's touched is her in bad. She's incompetent. The reason she's not doing what I do, and she's not doing what she should be doing, she won't even do interviews with friendly people because she can't do better than Biden. Now, he had a reason for not doing well. And he was never, 25 years ago, the sharpest, well, brightest bulb in the ceiling, that I can tell you, okay, he wasn't. But he could do interviews at least. Not lately, he couldn't, perhaps. But she's, she should be doing interviews. She doesn't want to do interviews. And the reason she doesn't is number one, her policies are so bad. Just to answer your question, I think that it's not going to change because it's really ultimately not about her as much as about her policy. - Where's the argument? There isn't one. I mean, that's the correct answer. You're not running against a person. You're running against a party. And then if the party that you're running against wants to make this person seem like she's something that she isn't or hasn't been or can't be, that is where you hit them on at hardest. And I think, listen, it's not like it was Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, and they replaced both of them with two new people, 'cause at that point, you might think the strategy would change. But Donald Trump really wasn't hitting Joe Biden in the debate or when he's out really talking to people outside of rallies, the more intimate events about Joe Biden's physical or mental acuity and ability to be able to conduct himself on the campaign trail or run for reelection, be president of the United States, et cetera. He was talking to people about policies. Joe Biden implemented this, Kamala Harris implemented that. They oversaw these things. Now everything's messed up. And that's where they stay. It's still part of the same ticket. And when you bring in someone, even more radical, progressive, overtly, and over the course of the last few years as the governor of Minnesota, as she did with her vice presidential pick and Tim Walz, it makes the scope be narrowed down quite a bit to be able to target them on all of those Democrat policies and platforms that they're trying to use in an attempt to pander to the electorate. Where there was some intelligent questions, talking about ending the war in Ukraine, conducting the largest deportation operation in the history of the universe, securing the southern border, cleaning up crime, and things like that. They also asked a whole bunch of just absolutely retarded questions as well. You know they were gonna get into the identity politics because Donald Trump has hit Kamala Harris on it. He elaborated on that talking point at the National Association of Black Journalists luncheon last week. And of course you knew you were gonna have one of those clickbait reporters in the crowd, asked President Trump about it. Here's how he answered back. Let's check it out. - Mr. President, Kamala Harris' father is Jamaican American. - Father. - And she went to his darkly black college. How is she only recently deciding to black? - Well, you'll have to ask her that question because she's the one that said it, I didn't say it. So you'll have to ask her, and I very much appreciate that question, but you'll have to ask her. But I've known her for a long time. I actually contributed to her campaign a long time ago because I was a developer I contributed to lots of campaigns of Democrats, Republicans, and some were liberal and some were conservative, but you'll have to ask her about that. But to me it doesn't matter. But to her from her standpoint, I think it's very disrespectful to both, really. Whether it's Indian or black, I think it's very disrespectful to both. To me it doesn't matter. - You know, it's pretty funny too because Donald Trump always has additional ammo for comments that he makes. I don't know where he got it, but he dug up a photo that's gotta be at least 30 years old, if not older, of a poker game that he was playing in and sitting next to Kamala Harris's old flame and the man who helped her bank political capital. That's what they're calling it these days. Ah! Willie Brown. And listen, he said you don't think I've known Kamala Harris for that long. Here's a picture of me and Willie Brown from back in the day. Now of course all of the memeers took it and said here's a picture of Donald Trump, Willie Brown, and Kamala Harris, implicating that she would be under the table servicing her ex-boyfriend. But hey, I'm no artist. I can only share the posts. Guys, wherever you're listening to the show today, welcome. Hope you're enjoying the second of two big Friday editions of "Stake for Breakfast."

Yeah, I thought the funniest part of this entire Q&A portion of Donald Trump's major press conference was when someone actually had the audacity and the balls to ask Donald Trump if he was concerned about the crowd size of Kamala Harris' speaking event since she's been rolled out as the Democrat candidate for president. I mean, I think it's almost laughable. But Donald Trump had a little bit more of an extended answer. Let's check it out. - Get all of that beside the Harris' crowds. - Oh, give me a break. Listen, I had 107,000 people in New Jersey. You didn't report it. I'm so glad you asked. What does he have yesterday, 2,000 people? If I ever had 2,000 people, you'd say my campaign is finished. It's so dishonest the press and here's a great example. I had in Michigan recently, 25,000 people and 25,000 people were just, we just couldn't get them in. We had in Harrisburg, 20, 25,000 people and 20,000 people couldn't get in. We had so many, nobody ever mentions that. When she gets 1,500 people and I saw it yesterday on ABC, which they said, oh, the crowd was so big. I have 10 times, 20 times, 30 times the crowd size and they never say the crowd was big. That's why I'm always saying, turn around the cameras. I'm so glad you asked that. I think it's so terrible when you say, well, she has 1,500 people, 1,000 people and they talk about, oh, the enthusiasm. Let me tell you, we have the enthusiasm. The Republican Party and me as a candidate, but the Republican Party has the enthusiasm. - Listen, you get to beat a lot of things between these candidates here, Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. If there's one thing that you cannot debate, it's the crowd size in regards to who's showing up with these events and why. Okay, we will find out over the course of time that a lot of these people that are attending Harris events are either bust in, paid, or part of something else that is not just organically there for these rallies. There are not people sleeping out in venues days ahead of time just to ensure that they can get in to Kamala Harris rallies, period, end of story. Well, even in a place that won't be heavily contested for Donald Trump like Montana, they're showing on all the pregame shows today that there have been people sleeping out to where he's going to speak for days. Consequently, I saw a brick suit there. You know he's at every freaking rally known to man. And he's one of the people that's catching a couple of Z's overnight before game day, so he can make sure he's one of the front row Joe's. It's just the movement behind Donald Trump is something that cannot be matched. And even though we're sticking to the thread here, I do have another clip to insert. James Blair, who joined us a couple of weeks ago, he's going to be joining us again next week. We need to talk about Republican and Trump team strategy heading into the DNC and what it looks like coming out. So that's going to be a great segment with him. He's been doing a little bit more media. You haven't heard the name, you better get familiar with it because I've heard that he's slid into a role similar of that, which was previously held full time, now only part time by Georgia three Republican nominee, Brian Jack, so doing a lot of big things, amazing things behind the scene. Here's him kind of talking about the game plan and what exactly it's looking like online. I've got a thread and I'm going to read portions of it. People are complaining about the Trump team's inability to have a ground game. Well, they have 100 of paid staff across battleground states and are currently hiring another wave of 100. 300 Trump GOP offices have now opened across battleground states that are staffed with 12,000 plus Trump force 47 captains who have been trained and will add over 2,000 new staffers a week between now and election day. On top of the official efforts, where on the street is, various groups have at least 1,000 combined paid canvassers in the field right now in battleground states and will likely add 2,500 by the time voting opens. Voter registration is an item he wanted to highlight too. At the end of 2020 in places like Pennsylvania, Democrats had almost 700,000 voter registration margin than Republicans. That number has been cut in half in the past three years. Same thing in Arizona. They had 130,000 more registered Democrats and Republicans. Same story in Arizona. The GOP had only 130,000 more Republicans registered than Democrats. That number should eclipse 300,000 by the time we get to election day. At the end of 2020 in places like Nevada, the GOP trailed the Dems by a little bit less than 90,000 registered voters. As of July of this year, the gap is down under 30,000. These are all states that are gonna be heavily contested for President Trump. And the ever expanding ground game works tirelessly to make sure that he's gonna get elected 47 President of the United States. So don't feed into the doomers and the fake news and the major influencers who either have been froze out by the Trump campaign or have had awful takes for so long, they just want to throw stuff at the wall and see what sticks, what could get a rise out of people and things of that nature.

The question over debates is something that is still up in the air. You know, there was the one on ABC that Kamala Harris is like 100% in for. That is because it is very not friendly waters for Donald Trump. He's suing the network, he's suing George Slopadopoulos for defamation and you know they're going to come out swinging and it will be a three on one against Donald Trump. Donald Trump also wants to do a debate on NBC. He wants to do one on Fox News as well. All before early voting, all including the one that they had previously agreed on with Joe Biden now replaced by Kamala Harris, he kind of touched on it yesterday and then we'll talk about it afterwards, let's listen. - With all of that being said, I think it's very important to have debates and we've agreed with Fox on a date of September 4th. We've agreed with NBC, fairly full agreement subject to them on September 10th and we've agreed with ABC on September 25th. So we have those three dates and those networks, they're very anxiously awaiting that date and those dates. So we have September 4th, September 10th and September 25th. We have spoken to the heads of the network and it's all been confirmed other than some fairly minor details. Audience, some location. - And the fact that Kamala Harris has to agree with them. - We put it into all things that will be settled very easily, very, I think it'll be very easy. The other side has to agree to the terms. They may or may not agree. I don't know if they're going to agree. She hasn't done an interview. She can't do an interview. She's barely competent and she can't do an interview but I look forward to the debates because I think we have to set the record straight. - That's the most important point there. You know, there are some people, people are split in the media right now and I'll just tell you what I'm hearing. Some are saying, absolutely not. She's going to agree to the one. It's going to be make or break for her and it's going to be very, very difficult for Donald Trump to do what he did to Joe Biden in a setting like what an ABC led debate would look like. Or she's going to do more than one and it's going to be the absolute demise of her candidacy because she can talk about it. Let's just say they do three. It's always the same format. Domestic policy, foreign policy, town hall, bipartisan crowd. That's over three in my eyes, looking at what she would have to do to defend herself. I wouldn't even go as far back as her records as a senator or a prosecutor unless you're just highlighting them because quite frankly, everything that's wrong with this country starts and ends with the last three years of her being Joe Biden's wingman and that's where you can absolutely destroy her. She's either going to have to disavow herself from all of these policies, including ones that she voted to pass into law like the Inflation Non-Reduction Act or she's going to have to accept responsibility for them and then try to convince people, well yeah, this is the direction we were going in. It's obviously not working so I have to grow. I have to change and in a Harris administration it would look like XYZ. Either way, I don't think the average blue collar, hardworking, middle class, family and just people everywhere aren't going to believe that stuff. You know, you don't think this as soon as this is over, the DEI is ramped up, the gender stuff is ramped up, the trans stuff is ramped up, the climate change is ramped up, we're ending fracking, we're ending energy production here in the United States, we're closing more nuclear power plants, we're closing down more pipelines, our geopolitical foes are continuing to take advantage of us people from all over the planet, like North Korea, Iran and Russia more overtly and organizations like NATO and the WHO more covertly. That's the grim reality of what Kamala Harris winning this election looks like. And we really have to be able to get our shit in line in a row and get focused for the next three months. You know, there was one interesting slash kind of touching, I don't know how to really put words on it, portion of this that I wanted you guys to hear. And you know, the question of, I believe Kamala Harris's campaign, weaponizing lock him up was brought up and Donald Trump kind of brushed that off, but you know, and they said, well, you did the same thing, the Hillary Clinton back in 2015 and then Donald Trump kind of stopped and was like, yeah, you want to know what we did? But I didn't let it get out of control and we talked about it. And I don't want to paraphrase for the president right now. So let's hear him kind of take us through exactly how that narrative was kind of laid out back in the day. - Not to pardon his son Hunter, who is now a convicted felon and faces more felony charges in his upcoming trial for alleged activation. Would you consider correcting clemency or a part of the two? - I don't think it's appropriate for me to talk about it. I think it's a tragic story. You want to know the truth. And I felt that with Hillary Clinton too. You know, with Hillary Clinton, I could have done things to her that would have made you a head spin. I thought it was a very bad thing. Take the wife of a president of the United States and put her in jail. And then I see the way they treat me. That's the way it goes. But I was very protective of her. Nobody would understand that. But I was, I think my people understand it. They used to say, "Lock her up, lock her up." And I'd say, "Just relax, please." We won the election. I think it would be very, I think it would have been horrible for our country. And we had her between the hammering of all of the files, and don't forget, she got a subpoena from the United States Congress. And then after getting the subpoena, she destroyed everything that she was supposed to get. I couldn't, I didn't think, I thought it was so bad to take her and put her in jail. The wife of a president of the United States. And then when it's my turn, nobody thinks that way. I thought it was a very terrible thing. And she did a lot of very bad things. I'll tell you what, she was, she was pretty evil. But in terms of the country and in terms of unifying the country, bringing it back to have taken her and to have put her in jail. And I think, you know the things as well as I do, there were some pretty bad acts that she did. I think it would have been very bad for our country. And a lot of my people, a lot of the MAGA, as they call them, but the base. And I think the base is, I think the base is 75% of the country. Far beyond the Republican party, because we're a party of common sense. And I'm a person of common sense. I wanna have low taxes, I wanna have strong borders. I wanna have a strong military so that China and Russia, look, they've allowed China and Russia to do the impossible combined. The natural enemies, they always have been, because China needs more land and Russia has it. They've always been natural enemies. And because of Obama, it started with him. And then Biden, 'cause he didn't know what the hell he was doing, they've now become one force. And then now they're adding Iran to it, and they're adding North Korea to it. Pretty powerful force. This is something that is unthinkable that they allowed to happen. - So there was that. A little insight to what went on behind the scenes, when they were talking about really, going after Hillary Clinton, and, you know, he's like, well, what did it get me? Look at what they've done to me. Look at what they've done to my family. They're starting to really ramp up again the news regarding Donald Trump's possible sentencing. In September by Judge Mershan up in Fat Alvin Bragg, DA office in Manhattan. And, you know, the rumor mill starts to crank. Oh yeah, they're starting to get, you know, a certain section of the prison ready to facilitate a possible Donald Trump jail sentence. And is Mershan gonna drop probation? Is he in the state that the court stuff was time served? Is it gonna be at least a year? Who knows? Don't worry about that right now. President Trump's got it. Whatever happens to him, he's built for it. Whatever they do to us, we have to use it as motivation. You know, whether it is the way they've asked for turf to Kamala Harris for the country over the course of last week, or how they've refused to cover the assassination attempt on his life three weeks ago, or whether it's they want to put him in jail and make him be a Zoom candidate when we go to the ballot box on election day. We will figure it out and we will be okay. Last clip I've got before we jump in with the one and only former Chief of Staff to the DOD, Acting Assistant Director of the DNI and Special Assistant to President Trump, Originator of the government gangster narrative, Mr. Cash Patel, is what Donald Trump is doing ahead of the DNC convention to make sure he's present in the news cycle. He has agreed to a Trump's exclusive interview with Tesla, SpaceX, and X's very own Elon Musk in a Twitter space this coming Monday. I'm hyped for it. At the very least, we're getting Donald Trump to log into his old Twitter account again. Let's see what happens. You know, these people keep taking potshots at him online. I put out a post this week. I tweeted somebody's just absolute cringe post. And I said, you guys are going to wind up fucking around and making this man come back to Twitter. Well, I'm excited for Monday, sit down with Elon Musk and what they plan on talking about. Let's hear Donald Trump give a little preview. - So Elon called me. As you know, he endorsed me, full-throated, great endorsement. I respect Elon a lot, he respects me. And not easy for him to endorse, to be honest with you. You know, it takes courage to endorse people. Many people have courage and many people don't. He does have courage. And Elon endorsed me and he asked me whether or not I do a show on Monday and I think it's going to be Monday night. And I believe he's the host of the show. So it'll be very interesting. A lot of people are talking about, I look forward to it. That'll be done on Monday night. - Can't wait to be honest with you. And the only thing I want to take you guys through is some poll numbers that came out today before we jump in with cash, as I see him loading up in the green room. What do we got right here? This is the real clear polling, 2024 electoral college, no toss up states, the electoral map. Right now it's, it's a Donald Trump at 287 Kamala Harris 251. That's what Donald Trump winning Arizona Nevada, looks like Georgia and Pennsylvania. What else do we got here? No, here we go, new general election poll. This one's from RNG, Harris 47, Trump 46. But the last poll, the AstroTurf one before Kamala Harris, even at an opportunity to roll her campaign out, she was at plus five. So four points already erased in the RMG latest poll that has Donald Trump down one. Do I have any other ones? Here we go. CNBC poll came out today, Trump 48, Harris 46. Donald Trump leads her at a two to one margin on the economy. This poll came out today. And that week old Marquette poll that rolled out like the day after she announced that had her up like six or eight, just absolutely outlier in garbage. And then the real clear politics national average head to head match up, Donald Trump is at 47.1%. Kamala Harris is at 47.6. So well within the margin of error. Remember, in the battleground states, in some of the blue wall, definitely in the Rust Belt, you're talking about a two to three percent margin in Donald Trump's favor on game day. And we're still three months out from the general election. That's all I've got here. We'll be jumping back into the news in just a bit. We're getting ready to sit down with Cash Patel right now, but before we do that, another check in with one of our partners.

He's the former chief of staff to the DoD, a special assistant to President Trump. He knows all things about Russiagate. He's fresh off a concert. Mr. Cash Patel, welcome back to the show. - It's great to be with you boys. I am a little Las Vegas Raider Stadium accident last night. I had to take a break. - Tell us about it. Morgan Whalen, Jelly Roll, probably some other great side acts. It looked like it was the epic performance to say the least. Huge brand new stadium had to be excellent. - Yeah, 55,000 people. Jelly Roll brought out MGK. It's pretty cool, actually. Get to see stuff like that live. And of course, Morgan Whalen, it's great. And I can't imagine anyone in that arena being Auntie Maga. - See, we're passing out a Trump Vance and lawn science in the parking lot. - I don't hide it anymore, bro. There's no more hiding it. You're either in or you're out. - That's it. If it was such a finite amount of time, we got a bunch of stuff to talk about. But before we get into any of the issues, Cash, I would be so selfish and not a good friend if I didn't ask. How is the rollout of the government gangster's movie? - Man, I thought when I saw the plot against the president, it would be hard to do a sequel or anything that could top it. Damn, you guys did a good job of doing so, though. (laughs) - That movie sucks. What are you talking about? - No. (laughs) - No, thanks, bro. Listen, it's all Bannon and Matt Taylor and Dan and those guys, they made a movie in a hundred days. And Steve literally finished it the day he walked into prison. And what we wanted to do is just put on screen and stitch together the web of government gangsters and the interchangeability of these people because it's not a Republican or Democrat thing. And whether it's Russiagate or Jansix, insurrection, disinformation, or 51 Intel letter or impeachment one or two, whatever Intel rig job they're running to rig the presidential election, they're gonna do it again. They're just gonna get better. They're just gonna hide better and they're just gonna bury their unlawful corrupt activities. And that's what we wanted to educate Americans on. Not predicting necessarily what's coming, but hey, you were lied to? You don't even have to read the book now. Bannon made it idiot proof at cash's level for all the world to see. So yeah, Warroom.film, the movie's doing great. We're doing premieres all over the country. We're gonna keep going. We might do a premiere right outside Danbury FCI in honor of Steve Bannon. - Oof, that would be epic to say the least. Right on the side of the prison you should project it onto. Man. - Don't take my ideas. - No, okay, well listen, hey, I do have to say though, we came up with magonomics here on stake for breakfast. I'm so glad that President Trump ran with that one. And I can't even take credit for it. It was, I kept hammering Noah with Bidenomics. He finally just spit out magonomics one day. And two weeks later, he's saying it at a rally. I was like, that's just awesome. - It's the engine of the people right here on this show. - We try. We never put sugar in the gas tank. I'll tell you that much. Listen, you talked about the interchangeability of all these government gangsters. Well, you can't get a better example than at the top of the Democrat ticket now that Sleepy Joe Biden has been kicked to the curb and given his ice cream and Kamala Harris is now the greatest thing since, I don't know, sliced bread, Martin Luther King. You picked something that's incredible and she's better than it right now. I need you to talk about how this kind of went down how the DC swamp works. This is a perfect example of probably the easiest equation to get there as well. I mean, it just seems like one of the biggest strong arms in political history overtly in front of the American people. An entire election without one vote cast, it's just absolutely incredible. Coming off of another election where there was a basement campaign that was supposedly better than MAGA, which is just absolutely impossible. And then you add this new vice presidential pick, Governor Walts to the mix and he's just an absolute disaster as well. So I kind of want you to lay out how you're seeing it for our listenership, Cash, and let's break it down. - All right, that's a lot to jam about, but basically you could sum it up as the following. The Democratic Party in the United States of America in 2024 has hijacked and stolen the democratic process. They threw out 14 million votes of a Democratic primary that elected Joe Biden to be their candidate. They lit those votes on fire, broke the law in several states and election regulations and then anointed, not elected, anointed Kamala Harris to be the presidential candidate without even having a Democratic National Convention to get the delegates to cast their votes on behalf of the people and hijacking the process yet again. So putting aside that they lit the Constitution on fire and gave us that what I think is an even worse choice in president in Kamala Harris, let's focus on the borders are or the lack thereof. She has specifically allowed people like Lake and Riley to be murdered. She has specifically allowed young women in our communities to be raped by illegal immigrants and elderly women to be abused. She has specifically allowed the Chinese Communist Party to pour fentanyl into our communities to kill our children. You were responsible for the border and you failed and it gets worse if you can possibly think that. She has specifically allowed Iran, Al Qaeda and the narco traffickers to combine forces and just last week the geniuses at DHS admitted that they have admitted at least a hundred known terrorists and they can't find them. That number's gotta be like a thousand. So let's just go with whatever they're saying right now. A hundred. This is like how they stage 9/11. What do you mean you can't find them? First of all, why did you let them in and now you let them loose? And this is just the terrorists. These are not the other criminals we're talking about in the 11 plus million people they've let in. So in the interim period, we are in the largest national security crisis of our time from now until the election. I don't mean after the election. I mean, right now we went from Joe Biden to Harris and now no one, not that there was really anyone in the driver's seat when Joe Biden was there, but now literally it's empty. And Kamala Harris is being, you know, swindled by Hollywood in the mainstream media because they are so anti-Trump. They don't necessarily like her but they're just making her look good and we have to admit her rollout, though it was full of lies, was effective and her choice in vice presidential candidate is the same thing. While it was full of lies about who he is in his service, it was effective in that the mainstream media and Hollywood helped her roll it out and they haven't answered a single tough question on any policy issue of substance. - Do you think they'll ever answer a question? I mean, I know Kamala Harris is only gonna agree in principle to the ABC debate. Whether or not we get a town hall or a second debate like President Trump wants at least three, that's yet to be determined. But I mean, you can't ask for a more hostile environment. I mean, Donald Trump's got lawsuits appending against ABC. He's suing George Stephanopoulos for all the crap that he said over the years. George Slappadopoulos, as he so elegantly puts out on true social several times a week. You know, it's one of those things where you just, they're laying out the red carpet for this lady. You talked about her non-answer and tough questions. The legacy, her being the deciding vote in the Inflation Non-Reduction Act. You know, her being the borders are, her getting sent to every obscure corner of the globe. Like whether it's somewhere in East Asia, you know, absolutely not knowing what she's clapping for, doing the same thing in Puerto Rico when there's protesters who are telling her to get out of their, you know, state. And it's just, it's a disaster. And I don't think, you know, for as many people know that they got swindled literally like three weeks ago, you had every single one of these people propping up Kamal Harris saying that Joe Biden was fit and competent and ready to roll in the selection cycle. Are they gonna let this happen again? Or do you think the country is more wise to it? - I think the government gangsters in the deep state are gonna dumble down on Kamal Harris. 'Cause we have shown America behind Donald Trump's leadership that if he wins again, he's gonna take a wrecking ball to the swamp. - Yep. - And he's gonna end their careers forever. And they are terrified and they know the truth. And the truth is that Donald Trump exposed their corruption. Now what we've been able to do with great shows like Elk for Breakfast, especially on Friday mornings, is get the truth out into our communities. It's not a right when conspiracy that Russiagate happened and that the FBI broke the law and illegally surveilled on American citizens including our sitting president. That ain't a conspiracy. It's not a conspiracy that Hunter Biden's laptop is Russian disinformation. It is full of criminality and the Department of Justice, Merrick Garland admitted it in the court of law, but they lied to you with the 51 Intel letter a week before an election to rig an election. Now America knows that truth. It is a force that Donald Trump committed an insurrection on January 6th because we've proven that he actually authorized the National Guard and Nancy Pelosi and her partner in crime, Mayor Bowser struck down any additional requests for the National Guard. - Correct. - It is a force and a lie about impeachment and Donald Trump's quid pro quo with the Ukraine. The list goes on. What we did in the movie is put all that in one place. And what we've allowed America to be witness to in a front seat kind of way is you were lied to. And we're not saying I told you so, we're saying get ready for the future. And I think that we have able to harness enough Americans to say, look, you guys have been telling the truth this whole time. Those guys have been lying to me. And I think we can peel off enough of the electorate as long as we have Donald Trump going out there and going into communities and reminding them of these things that they're gonna say, wait a second. I don't really vote usually or I voted the other way because I was lied to, I'm all in for Trump. If we keep doing that these next 88 days, we got a very good shot. But listen, it's gonna be a harder fight than if it was Joe Biden in the driver's seat. - No, it's certainly gonna be because, you know, you have people that could articulate it a little bit better and could handle a little bit more of a rigorous schedule than Joe Biden could in the first place. You know, Cash, you talk about the national security stuff with the border. There are some people that are in this country right now that have the absolute worst intent for America. And it's not just the gangs. It's not just the Hannibal Lecter types that are getting emptied out of prisons in South America, Central America, Africa in the Middle East, et cetera. And getting, you know, trafficked over here to the United States. There are people that want to hurt our politicians. We haven't had the opportunity to talk to you since the assassination attempt on President Trump's life three weeks ago up in Butler, Pennsylvania. But you want to talk about a combination of the national security threat with the complete incompetency of all the government gangsters and how their egos is probably a huge part of what facilitated, you know, what happened to President Trump. I'm sure you got a lot to sound off on it. I'm sure our listenerships can be pretty excited to hear it. - Yeah, look, a sitting or a former president running for president again was shot in the head. That should be news for like a decade. - Yep. - I don't even hear about it anymore in the mainstream media because the target was Donald Trump. And that's the harsh reality. That's the starting point. Let's put aside the cataclysmic failures of law enforcement, secret service, big government, what have you, let's put that aside. And let's add what I think is more important about the conversation. Thankfully, the President Trump got shot. But remember, an American citizen is dead and two others were injured. And what do we know about that entire incident today? - Nothing. - A month ago. Nothing. And why do we know nothing? Because we have allowed the deep state in Washington, D.C. to bamboozled the American public yet again. I wrote an op-ed-on-out kick like the day after on how to run an investigation for the American public. And what the Republican majority, and this is what's gonna sting, the Republican majority and the House of Representatives can own for the American people. A chance to unify the country behind the truth. What happened? Where were the failures? How do we fix it? How do we restore faith in law enforcement and Washington to protect our VIPs? And the answer is you run an investigation where you release the truth on a daily basis. You get the documentation from the Secret Service. Their director and acting director lied to the American people immediately when they said Donald Trump's team never asked for augmented security. I know that for a fact, so does America. And they lied anyway. And what does our House majority of Republicans do? They look for headline grabs and yell at them. And what do we learn? Zero, zero, zero. They got set up. The first lady walked in there and knew she was gonna get fired so she can go out and have a million dollar payday. And this other clown comes in and doubles down on the lie. And then what does Speaker Johnson do? Stands up subcommittee. I'm not gonna attack the people on it, but I am gonna say there should have been other people on it. Like Cory Mills and Eli Crane. - Agreed. - Or you don't special forces snipers, just maybe. And what did he say? We stood up a committee three weeks after Donald Trump was shot and the American was killed. And we're in recess till mid September. Talk about a dereliction of duty. The ultimate con job. These people just don't get it. And I'm super pissed at them. And a lot of people on our side are gonna say, "Hey man, you can't attack our side." I'm not attacking our side. I'm calling out our side. - Fantastic. - Fainting an interest of accountability and failing to deliver to the American people. And now we're not gonna hear a thing. This committee's not gonna convene. They're gonna, it's an election year. They're gonna come back in a week, four a week in September. And then that's it. We're done. What are we gonna learn? What are they gonna send three letters that people are gonna ignore? Or they're gonna roll out a couple of subpoenas that they won't have the audacity to actually enforce? - Right. It says a lot for the state of, not only the security state and the DC swamp, but when you talk about being able to game the system, it's those career bureaucrats that sure know how to do it. I mean, we're looking at this thing, not even getting off the ground into the next session of Congress. That's not knowing who the president's gonna be, which party is gonna be in charge of the House of Representatives next year, et cetera. And you know, if anything doesn't go our way in the three pronged equation, if you include the Senate as well, then that investigation is going absolutely nowhere. And we'll know, we'll never know how close Donald Trump really was to losing his life a couple of weeks ago and why. I just think it's an absolute embarrassment. It's a stain on not just federal law enforcement, but our country as a whole. You know, if there's one thing that we could always profess to the rest of the world, it's how, you know, locked down it is here, especially when it comes to all things presidential. And it was just really a dropping on the ball. It's just an absolute disgust to me every single day. I'm glad we get someone. I mean, because you don't, you didn't only just serve under President Trump Cash. We know that you have a friendly relationship with him. I'm sure this was like not only equal parts scary, but infuriating as well. And it's like you said, you know, they'd much rather ask President Trump, well, you know, why can't you not make fun of Kamala Harris? Or what do you mean when you talk about Hannibal Lecter at a rally instead of like, they even wanted to make fun of him at this press conference yesterday for saying he didn't have enough of his ear taken off by the bullet, you know, when they tried to assassinate him. And a fraction of an inch, and we'd be in a lot different situation right now. And we wouldn't be talking about a Harris Waltz ticket. We'd be talking about what the hell were we gonna do for the next 88 days to try and win back this country. But, you know, that's neither here nor there. And I guess we could leave it on that very somber note. - I do want our listenership to hear about all things related to the Cash Foundation. So before we cut out with you today, Cash, please tell our listenership all about it again and how we can help. - Yeah, look, we had a really special event in Nashville. At Redneck Revere, our friend John Rich was kind enough to host us. - Awesome. - We had Jeffrey Steele, Ira Dean, and Aaron Lewis come play a private, really cool concert for us. We're all three of them, we're on stage at the same time. They had as much fun as probably we were in the audience. We raised $400,000 and just in that one event and we're gonna give it all away. We've built homes for veterans in need. We've stood up six scholarships for kids going to school this college cycle. We've given away money to law enforcement here in Las Vegas and across America. We've stood up legal defense funds and we helped the citizens of East Palestine. And this is a cool one that the Elk for Breakfast team can be proud of. I teamed up with my buddy NHL legend Stanley Cup champion Theo Florie in Alberta, Canada. And we have assisted 700 human beings with addiction with a percentage rate of success of over 75%. We've got international, it's awesome. So we love the support that we've been given at the Cash Foundation. And I love the fact that the media is using it as a zinger against me saying he has his own merch. Yeah, I got my own merch to help people in need. So if you wanna come at me, come at me. But don't come after the foundation. We're helping people in need. And the people that are coming after us don't do a damn thing for other people. So I'm proud of the work and I'm honored that State for Breakfast has been with us in day one. - Since day one, man, and I tell you what, out of all the people in America first and there are a lot of them that we put up on a pedestal here on the show, Cash, no one's been more giving than you. And you've put such an America first MAGA spin on it. It's somebody that you completely own and we love to promote here on the show, which is what I'm gonna tell you next. We've got the link to the movie, Government Gangsters, we've got a link to the foundation and the show description as well. You've only got one social media and it's only on one platform. So where can we find you? - At Cash, at KSH, we're having some fun and we're onboarding great guys like Sean Ryan. Stay tuned. - Tucker Carlson jumped on yesterday too. It was awesome to see that. - Yeah, make that. - Listen, it's the biggest platform on the planet. It's getting bigger every day. This is the former chief of staff to the DOD, special assistant to President Trump, the originator of Government Gangsters. Mr. Cash Patel, thanks for joining us today, sir. Crack of Paps, it's Friday. - Thanks, my man, I will, you too. - President Trump has been, since he came down that escalator in 2015, operating with a schedule that I've never seen before in politics and he is up early. He is up late. He barely gets any sleep. He's the type of guy who can go campaign doing five rallies in five states. It could be sunny in one state. It could be snowing in another and I'm sure that we will continue to see that level. As we saw him standing there for an hour, he'll answer any question from any reporter that is out there and quite frankly, the way his style is, he'd probably stand there for another hour. Kamala Harris has not had a tough interview, has not had a tough interview since she became the nominee, since President Biden stepped aside. She hasn't done a tough press conference and I think it's important to be willing to answer those questions. I think the Vice President should stand for an hour answering tough questions at a press conference. I think that she should sit down for an unedited live interview and being able to answer all sorts of tough questions. What we just witnessed was President Biden getting 14 million Democratic Party primary votes and at the end of the process, the elites of the Democratic Party didn't like the polling and they took him out. That's how Kamala Harris got this nomination and I think that there are a lot of important questions that need to be asked and answered and I don't think Kamala Harris can just stay behind a teleprompter between now and November 5th and get away with it and she shouldn't get away with it. We have certainly. - All right, jumping back into the news portion of the show here. Last news segment on the back end of two big Friday editions of "Stake for Breakfast." I'm Roan, again flying solo today. That was former Congressman and major consultant in the Republican political arena, Lee Zeldin, frustrating, fake news, Jake Tapper on CNN yesterday, talking about the things that Kamala Harris hasn't done. So if the media wants to continue to positively report on her, like what sense is that making? At what point does the American electorate wake up to it? You can't say that she's the greatest thing ever and try to protect her because she's a black Indian, whatever woman and not have her held to account for any of her resume or over the last three plus years, record in regards to everything from the border and geopolitics to the cover up of Joe Biden's candidacy. So some excellent points being made there and those are the talking points that we need to hammer. Yeah, I saw one come out just over the last day or two and this is from a Reuters article talking about the cocoon that's being set up around Kamala Harris right now. I'm going to read a portion of it here. Believe it or not, and I'm sure you definitely can believe it. There's a whole bunch of Barack Obama all over Kamala Harris. Vice President Kamala Harris's campaign has added three new senior advisors including top strategist who guided the Democrats former President Barack Obama's two winning U.S. presidential bids, a sort with direct knowledge said yesterday. David Plouffe, who was the manager of Obama's presidential campaign in 2008 and a senior aide during his 2012 re-election victory joined Harris's campaign for president as a senior advisor. The Harris campaign is also being joined by Stephanie Cutter, a Democrat communications veteran who previously served as Obama's White House communications director and deputy campaign manager. Cutter will join Harris on the campaign as a senior advisor with a strategy on messaging and Cutter's firm is on contract to produce the Democrat National Convention, I guess, theme in August. Other Obama alums joining the campaign include Mitch Stewart who worked on both Obama's campaigns and will come in as a senior advisor specifying in battleground states. And then David Blinder who led Barack Obama's public opinion research operation will expand his role on the Harris campaign to lead the opinion research operation for her. So, yeah, a whole lot of Obama coming around. It's so interesting to see because they supposedly had nothing to do with removing Joe Biden as the candidate, but now you see all this former senior staffers getting placed into the same offices and roles within the Harris walls campaign that they served on with Barack Obama. So, I don't really think that we should take this lightly and hopefully the Trump team is getting ready to punch back and punch back hard when they start dishing out the fake news and looking for legal ways, let's just say by weaponizing people like deranged progressive attorney Mark Elias to gum up the gears of the national Trump campaign. And when you're talking about the other side of the ticket for the Democrats and that's Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, as he's being like JD Vance has introduced or reintroduced to the party and the public for the first time, well, the Democrats do a little bit better job of this, but they get those bullet pointed talking points out. And over the course of several days, sometimes even weeks, you'll see every commentator on that side of the aisle use exactly the same verbatim talking point in every single newscast you watch. Well, rolling out of the red carpet and national turfing for Tim Walz is no different than any other person within the Democrat party. Let's hear just exactly the Democrats are using their weapon within the media to make sure that everybody knows exactly what the Minnesota Governor's all about. - Everybody in America knows somebody like Tim Walz. - In Michigan, we know a lot of guys like Tim Walz. Like, you know that guy, we all know that guy, we've all met that guy. - And he's the guy who is always there to help you, whether it's changing your oil. - At butter carving competitions. - Fixing a lawnmower. - The butter carving. - He's not a politician. - He's the guy who makes sure you have jumper cables. - He's such a regular guy. - He's a teacher. - He's a teacher. - He's a veteran. - He's a veteran. - He's a coach. - He's a coach. - He's a dad. - He's a father. - Tim Walz is the dad and grandpa that Rush and Rupert stole from us. - Harrison Walz actually feel like regular, normal middle class folks. - When you see the image of Tim Walz, you're gonna see him surrounded by kids. - Tim Walz is who JD Vance wants to be. He is legit, authentically, a Midwestern regular guy you could talk to in a hardware store. That's not who JD Vance actually is. Even that, if that is who he presents himself as on paper. - Everybody in America knows that JD Vance, but we stay away from him 'cause he's weird. - JD Vance is like stalking the vice president and saying weird stuff to reporters. - The American public can sniff in authenticity. This guy is in, he's not authentic. He's not who he is. - He can't even bring himself to say something, just say something normal. - Walking up to the vice president and Air Force II is not a thing, dude. That is not a thing that normal people do. - He is just not authentically who he presents himself to be at all. - JD Vance who bungles easy questions about what makes you smile and he couldn't even come up with something that made him sound like an authentic human being. - You need to have a natural authentic connection with your running mate and there just isn't one there at all. - Oh, shut the fuck up. - What else can you say? It's like a machine and you have to be able to ready, you have to be able to be ready to, it's like when a hurricane comes through, the Gulf States and the Southern States, you just gotta put the boards up and hunker down and take it on full force. Hopefully it's only a little bit of patio furniture that blows over. You don't lose any parts of your roof. You don't get down power lines for too long. A tree doesn't fall in your garage, but I tell you when that absolute hurricane of bullshit gets thrown through the media cycle, it hurts my stomach to see the amazing technological advances we've made in social media that we can find instances of that where in decades past, you'd never even know. If local news outlets across the country were spewing the exact same garbage like they're spewing for Tim Waltz, you know, and they wanna make fun of JD Vance, but you really can't. The guy's been an absolute rockstar since Donald Trump tapped him. He's been working hard. He crisscrossed the country this week, following Waltz and Harris around, everywhere from Pennsylvania and Michigan, Wisconsin. I believe today they're all in Arizona as I saw Harris getting off the plane, not falling up the stairs either. But what was funny was, when they got out to Wisconsin the other day, and Harris and Waltz were gonna speak on the back end of that summer fest concert that was going on, they made it look like a Harris rally, but it wasn't. You know, JD Vance and Trump Force II pulled up on the same tarmac as Kamala Harris and Tim Waltz's plane. It was the vice president of the United States's official plane and since they had a little time before they needed to depart to their speaking event venue, JD Vance, took his entire detail, his staffers, his secret service agents, which consequently, I pointed out on social media, anyone that doesn't follow us yet, or hasn't been online that much, listen, everybody knows up in Butler when President Trump got shot, there was that video of the sloppy secret service agent, the woman who couldn't get her gun into the holster. She is now, or at least wasro either this week, part of the detail that's, I guess, providing secret service to JD Vance. But anyways, he takes the whole group and they walk across the tarmac to Kamala Harris's plane. I don't know if they've already disembarked and are on the way over to the hangar, where the speaker, where the speaking event was gonna be, that's not important. They weren't coming out, the press was standing there. Again, it's the middle of the summer in Wisconsin, it's hot as hell, and these people are just waiting for a, Mrs. Vice President, can you tell us about this Saturday, the other thing? And they just wave, meanwhile, in their heads, they're saying, you fucking idiots, and then they get in their cars and they leave. JD Vance walks up to them. First of all, the picture of them walking across the tarmac, JD Vance shared the picture and said the reboot for entourage looks lit, finally, someone that could articulate something outside of the normal box and just ratio people with. It's very refreshing. We got a couple people in the Republican party that do a decent job of it, Mike Collins, Tim Burchit, come to mind. But JD Vance seems to be like on a trajectory to eventually be on a Trumpian level, which we can only hope. But anyways, they get over to the press. Guess they felt bad for them. They know Kamala Harris isn't talking to him, so JD Vance did exactly what he needed to do, let's hear it. (engine revving) (engine revving) - You guys have more, yeah? - All right, all right. - So I think we're celebrating vice president here. - I figured I'd come by, and more than two people have been playing, so hopefully it's gonna be my playing in a few months, but I also hope you guys might get lonely because the vice president doesn't answer questions from reporters and hasn't for 17 days. I think if you guys an explanation for why she won't take questions from reporters, no? Nobody, okay, great. Well, I hope that nobody wants to answer, so they don't get kicked out of Kamala Harris's press corps. - It's a brand of real campaign instead of one from a basement with a teleprompter, so have good one guys and see ya. - What would you like to hear from her? - No, never answer your questions. I'd love her to just answer what she wants to do and also explain why every single position she has has changed. She pretends to be a prosecutor, yet she's, she pretends to be a telephone crime prosecutor, and yet, here she is, running the police on the plane. She's the reporter's yarder, yet she's opened up the American television order, and this is the person who has to answer a question from media, and it's disgraceful that she wants to be guys. It's also, it's all people in here to take the fight. Anyway, we're gonna go do our event. I appreciate you guys being here. I wish she paid you some more attention. See ya. (dramatic music) And just as fast as he came, not like Tim Walz with the horse semen, he left and was back focused on doing what he needed to do, and getting ready to deliver remarks to supporters out there. You know, and you see these progressives lining up in the press, and they're bringing on these commentators, and, you know, people who have been closely associated with Barack Obama, or Hillary Clinton, or anyone in that orbit, these are the people that are in the ground. They're on the ground, they're in the courts, and they're getting into the media, and they're trying to inject into the media cycle, false realities, and just things that are not true. We see it a lot less on Fox News, you know, they have their one never-trumper, Neil Cavuto. I mean, Sandra Smith, you take her lever, Martha McGallum, she's also a huge douchebag, but on places like MSDNC, NBC, and CBS, they are just absolutely off the charts when it comes to bringing in these, and I'm quoting out experts, they're not experts, they're just people that have worked on campaigns, which happen to be successful, which apparently makes you an expert. And starts building up, they're putting words in Kamala Harris' mouth on like what she would do in response to Donald Trump talking about her ethnicity or what a debate might look like or why she doesn't have to answer to the press right now. I'll give you a good example, let's check it out. - I get the sense that the Harris campaign is ready for these attacks, but I have to tell you, Chris, and they're not engaging directly on whether or not he was falsifying his record, his military record, they are, of course. As you said, pointing out that he does have a history of service both in the National Guard, but also as a teacher, as someone who was a governor, as someone who was a congressional member. So they're sort of leaning in on the fact that he's someone who wants to serve America. And yesterday, when he was in Philadelphia, he was also making that point saying that they want this to be a people powered campaign and that people centered administration if they are elected to the White House. But it's very interesting to see them say yes, he does have a sort of a long history in the military and joined at 17, has trained people who did go into combat zones is what one source told me, but also is not engaging directly on whether or not he falsified here. - And again, Kamala Harris' record doesn't matter. The vetting of Tim Walz doesn't matter. And remember, if you didn't serve in the military and you just saw that he served for 24 years, regardless of what he did, whether he was a shitbag, whether he used the military at the end of his military career to advance another one, which would be his run for Congress, or if he lied about not only his record, but his deployments and his rank. Don't worry about that. Thank you for your, remember, she said it. These are people, she's looked for someone that wants to serve. Obviously he's done it. He's been in the military. He's been a teacher. He drinks horse semen. What's not to like about this guy? That's not weird. They're all weird. And, you know, the deflection, projection, and rejection by the Democrat Party is part of the being a radical progressive 101. The debates is something that is going to keep circling back whether Kamala Harris likes it or not. You know, there was very few times this week that the press was actually able to corner her. And again, right now they're guaranteed for one. It's in not good territory and the ABC pre-agreed on, formerly known as Joe Biden debate. Donald Trump wants, I believe, NBC and Fox News to do one as well. They were able to catch Kamala Harris and talk to her on just the idea of debates. And she actually gave an answer. Let's hear it. - Adam Vice President Donald Trump agreed to three debates. Will you be participating in all three? - I've always been on record. I am looking forward to debating Donald Trump. And we have a date of September 10th. I hear he's finally committed to it. I'm looking forward to it. - What about the other two? - Let's make sure we get this vote. Let's vote right here. - Let's vote with the other two. Basically, go fuck yourselves. Do I think the pressure will eventually get so great? Let's just say if between now and September 9th or 10th, whenever this debate is supposed to be, she does no interviews and no media. And then the talking points have to start switching in the negative direction for her. Does she have to do another one? I mean, once you get past the September 4th deadline, it's in the wind. Whatever the third debate that they asked about was, it's gonna come into question two because it's so close to early voting at that point. You wanna be able to not only prepare, but give the American public the opportunity to hear both sides of this coin before they go and make a decision that's going to either change or shape this country for decades to come if not forever. And the fact that we've devolved in politics so far to where you don't even have to debate anymore. Like, remember the 2022 election cycle? There were candidates at Mark Kelly. Didn't want a debate, he finally did. You had, you know, Katie Hobbs never debated Carrie Lake. Candidates all over the country just didn't, they wanted nothing to do with it. Point out my record, how dare you? Make me lay out my platform, absolutely not. And we just can't have that anymore. We have to have some real discord in this country. So what Donald Trump wants is, Fox News September 4th, NBC September 10th, and then ABC September 25th, with somewhere in between a vice presidential debate. And I guess we'll just have to see what happens from here. The only thing that's going to, you know, get that off the ground is a massive pressure campaign from the media. And I don't know if they got what it takes to get it done right now. You know, but it doesn't mean people on Kamala Harris' side of the aisle aren't questioning what she's all about either. Resident retard and current Democrat Senator from Pennsylvania, John Federman was on Newsmax a day or two ago. And he kind of, I guess in the clarity he's getting as he continues to heal from the stroke he had, is at the end of the day, a realist. Like he'll pull and toe the party line. He'll stump for what he's passionate about. He'll admit that when he couldn't even talk, they rolled him out as a progressive, but he's definitely more of a moderate, even though he supports some of the, you know, most extreme candidates. But when it comes to black and white, not race, I mean, the numbers within side, the numbers of some of these races, especially in places like Battleground, Pennsylvania. At this point, he's not too optimistic that Kamala Harris could pull it off, especially after the big Josh Shapiro snub, let's hear it. - I think if you match up Trump and Harris, which I think that's really what that this is really about. And I do believe he's gonna win Pennsylvania. And of course it's gonna be close, but I've been maintaining that whether it's Biden, whether it was Clinton or whether now it's with Vice President Harris, it's gonna be very close. - So I guess we'll have to see what happens after that.

All right, winding down here, and get ready to jump in with former US ambassador to Denmark, who last served during the Trump administration, Ambassador Karla Sands. Nancy Pelosi's been making a little bit of press lately. Interestingly enough, she's kind of like drip, drip, drip, and what went on behind the scenes in her attempt to dethrone Joe Biden. And as these details continue to come out, it is really interesting to see how Nancy Pelosi continues to squirm as she feels really uncomfortable revealing to the press and to the American public what happened. Here's a portion of an interview she did over the weekend. On the radio hour, which I believe is a PBS show, where she's talking about not only her love and affection for Joe Biden, but at the end of the day, things needed to change, and they so untraditionally went about doing it, that they're in the situation they're in right now. It's here. - Love him so much. I think he's been a really a fantastic president of the United States. So I really wanted him to make a decision of a better campaign, because they were not facing the fact of what was happening. Just a little background, I've never been that impressed with his political operation. - Ouch, Biden's operation. - Yeah, I'm not, I mean, I just happened to it. They won the White House Bravo, but, so my concern was this ain't happening, and we have to make a decision for us that's to happen, and the president has to make the decision for that to happen. - Let me just say, I won't say necessarily, I knew what I was doing at that time. I knew what I was doing in the whole thing, not just that shit. - And what was that? - That Donald Trump would never set foot in the White House again. - What in the actual (beep) - Love you Noah. You know, a member of Congress has put out a statement today, that said Democrats wouldn't be in this position that they're in right now with Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, if they had better leadership in the 2022 midterm election cycle. And that's when Nancy Pelosi was still Speaker of the House. Ouch. So listen, are we gonna see huge public theatrics next week? I don't think so. Will we see some drama or at least have some information being disseminated to the American people and what it's really like inside the party that knows how to circle the wagons better than everyone else, but it looks like the Indians are actually getting some arrows through now. I hope so. Nancy Pelosi also did a sit down with CNN yesterday where she was talking about the fact that she doesn't really believe that Kamala Harris needs to do debates or speaking events or interviews. 'Cause they're gonna do whatever it takes to shelter her, let's hear it. Do you think that the vice president needs to be more out there talking to reporters, talking about issues in a give and take, not just in speeches? I think she should say what I just said in that sentence. She has to be herself, she should be ready. She should know her power and all of this. And I don't give anybody advice except to be themselves and be ready and know the power of their individuality and their authenticity. I have no idea what that fucking means. I just think it means that if Kamala Harris wants to be candidate Harris, if she wants to be a madam vice president and because she's either too busy running a campaign or too busy running the office of the vice president, she doesn't have to have time for a back and forth question and answer or formal interview or anything with the press or the former president in the debates, et cetera. So take it for what it is, but they tell you exactly what's going on, even though sometimes it's really hard to listen. Doesn't mean the Trump campaign didn't have an absolute heater coming down the pike. This one's I'm sure from Stephen Chang as most of the good ones are. 18 days later, three questions for Kamala Harris. It's day 18 and Kamala Harris is still ducking the media. No press conferences, interviews or substantive, reporter, engagement of any kind. If Kamala Harris can't face the press, how can she face down an economy decis mated by surging inflation and out of control border that allows criminals to stream into our communities or America's adversaries on the world stage who continue to take advantage of a weak presidency? Or maybe she doesn't have an answer to why she chose Tim Walts who's been exposed as a liar and a fraud misrepresenting his service record throughout the years. Said Stephen Chang, Trump campaign director and communications director. So here are three questions that I'm posing to Kamala Harris needs to answer. You chose Tim Walts as your running mate because he reflects the values you hold. Now he's been exposed as a liar and a fraud. Is this pick a self-reflection of yourself? Question two, why did you layer the former Biden campaign staff with Obama's team? Do you not have confidence with team Biden? And number three, most importantly, when's your next or first press conference? Got to keep hammering them. It's the only way we're going to get shit done. I've got one more before we jump in with Ambassador Carla Sands. It's not really what someone called a heater. You might call it a little bit of a snooze. Sleepy Joe Biden sat down for a snooze scooze of this week. In his first interview since he abandoned his candidacy to seek reelection as president of the United States and Biden in that interview in an attempt, it's only my guess to continue to fan the flames of division in this country, said he doesn't really know whether or not he thinks, regardless of the outcome of the election, that the transfer of power this time would be peaceful. Think I'm shitting you just three weeks after the same kind of rhetoric, nearly got Donald Trump assassinated. Let's check it out. Are you confident that there will be a peaceful transfer of power in January 2025? If Trump wins, no, I'm not confident at all. I mean, if Trump loses, I'm not confident at all. He means what he says. We don't take him seriously. He means it. All the stuff about if we lose, there'll be a bloodbath. It's not going to happen to be a storm. Let's look what they're trying to do now in the local election districts where people count the votes, or elected, they're putting people in place in states that they're going to count the votes, right? You can't love your country only when you win. - Oh my God. An absolute disgrace. You know what I lied? We can't end the week on something that absolutely abysmal, and they're going to roll him out there with that divisive, spark-inducing, inflammatory commentary. So let's jump in right here, because I promised I said I was going to put it in the show this morning. And as our last audio clip of the week, here's conservative influencer during an interview, Logan Hall, got lots of respect for him, talking about how everything we've covered today is most accurate because all of it, in regards to Kamala Harris, her candidacy, her vice presidential pick, and everything in between is bullshit. Let's check it out. And just the quick sidebar, whenever you see these people at Democrat rallies chanting, this is what democracy looks like. It's like the four ugliest feminists you can imagine. It's like, yeah, it looks terrible. But yes, it is very important to remember that this is 100% fake. You ask how much of it is real and how much is fake. None of it is real. It's 100% fake. It's all media generated, inorganic. There's no energy behind Kamala Harris whatsoever. And I think part of the problem that we fall into too often on our side is we give into these demoralization campaigns when we know that the media is lying and then they pull out this new narrative that Kamala has all this energy and support behind her. No, stop falling for this stuff. Do you remember those forecasts in 2016 that said Hillary Clinton has like a 99% chance of winning the election? They were making it seem like Hillary was the most popular person on earth. People hated Hillary Clinton. And Kamala Harris isn't much better. I think she's arguably worse. So I think yes, we very much just need to stay focused on winning and you don't have to listen to what the media is saying. - Yeah. - Such excellent point by the uncommentator there. I can't think of a better way to end. We're getting ready to jump in with former US ambassador to Denmark, Ms. Carlos Sands. 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.

Make America healthy again. - All right, joining us next on the show today to speak Friday edition of the State for Breakfast podcast. She's the former ambassador to Denmark. She's also the vice chair at the Center for Energy and Environment at the American First Policy Institute welcoming back to the show when ambassador Carla Sands. Thanks for coming on. - Hey Ron, it's great to be with you. - Always a pleasure to host ambassador and we've got a bunch of stuff to talk about. So we've hit Friday polling, heading into the weekend and all of them have, as we all knew, with narrow after, I don't even know if you want to call it a Harris honeymoon or a bump or anything like that. But you know, the media did what they needed to do is Kamal Harris rolled out her presidential campaign this week, named her very controversial vice presidential pick in Tim Walts for the governor of Minnesota. And you've kind of seen it playing out in real time, still no media, no interviews, no in-person answering for anything to do with the last three plus years of what's been going on in the country. I know you've tracked this through several election cycles and kind of see it materializing as we're all watching it right now ambassador. I kind of want to get some commentary on how you think the rollout's been for the Democrats. - You know, it couldn't have gone better for them if they had, you know, dreamed it up. I, we have hide in Kamala now, hide in Kamala. And Ms. Harris is trying to rent out the clock and not take any press questions without a teleprompter in front of her. It feels like Joe Biden 2.0, but I don't know. I think he actually may have made more sense than she does. She talks a word salad, but we have to put that aside. It doesn't matter. What matters are that the, I'll just call it communist slash Democrat policies that she, she's the most leftist member of first she was in the Senate. Now she's the furthest left most Marxist candidate for president in our country's history. So they're hiding for policies. She's trying to walk back all the talk that she's done over the decades. She absolutely wants to make all of these illegal immigrants to be citizens. She's set it out loud multiple times. She wants them to vote. This is her agenda. She, she supports transing the kids. She wants to indoctrinate your children. And she wants to take away your free speech, stack the Supreme Court and do away with the filibuster so that they can jam through their policies and there's no Supreme Court to put a check on their leftist dreams. So if that doesn't scare you, we need to pay attention to what matters and not the noise. - Yeah, that's an excellent point you make. It's not like any of the pollsters or the media are gonna do anything to make this fair. You know, you see the way the whole debates item is kind of coming together or not so much itself. You know, Kamala Harris wants to do the ABC debate. That is extremely hostile territory for Donald Trump. He just got, you know, almost ambushed at the National Association of Black Journalists summit last week when, you know, the commentator from there started hammering with questions. We all know that he's suing George Papadopoulos for slander and, you know, fake news over there. So she doesn't want Fox News. She doesn't want any other media outlet to be covering them as far as the debates, even if it's a town hall. I don't really think that's the way you can run a campaign. But if you look at what they did with Joe Biden, I think you mentioned at the top of the hit, you know, if they want to run a basement campaign, it's gonna be kind of weird to see how bad the country is in shape right now, not have her answer for anything. But we've seen weirder stuff like with the 2020 presidential election. - Yeah, Ron is so true. And so the next point is she's on this sort of sugar high of just having, you know, announced. And now she's got this lefty vice president candidate who is a stolen valor guy. But don't pay attention to that. Pay attention to it. He's a leftist. And that's what this is about. Don't pay attention to the little things we have to vote. And to that point, one more thing, and then I want to get to voting. And that is that Joe Biden is now making noises that perhaps he steps aside in September and gives her campaign another mega bounce if she becomes the sitting US president and she's running. That changes a lot. And from September to early November, can she win? Remember, early voting starts in 38 days in multiple states, including my home state of Pennsylvania. The election day is only 88 days away. So 38 days, a little more than a month from now. If he steps aside and then we go into early voting, that's huge wind at her back. So the mechanics of this are that if Republicans will register to vote and register all their friends that support the Second Amendment, all their friends that go to church don't believe the people that say that politics shouldn't be within the Christian purview. We are called to be the Sultan of Light. We are called to run the race and we are called to finish it. And right now, we are not enough of a voice in our country. And that's why we're losing our Judeo-Christian heritage. Look at what's happening in the UK. That's a preview of coming attractions if we don't get this election right. And so I just hope everybody on your podcast listening and their friends and family, if they're not registered to vote, they can go online and just do that right now. They can take out their phone and register to vote right now in their state and county and then check how early can they vote? They can sign up for a mail-in ballot. I'm worried also, Ron, about CrowdStrike. I don't know if you're open to talking about that. - Sure, go ahead. - Okay, when I left the RNC convention, the day I left, it was the day after the convention, you couldn't move. Most airlines were down and it was a CrowdStrike country-wide outage. Now, the CEO came out soon after that and said, "Oh, we're really sorry about that. We were preparing for Election Day." I just want, you know, if the CEO says we were preparing for Election Day, you have to take that seriously. So what were they preparing for for Election Day? If there are systems down on Election Day and Democrats have been harvesting those ballots and getting those early votes in, like they did in the primary, where 49% of Joe Biden's voters voted early in Pennsylvania, 13% of Donald Trump's voters voted early, 49 to 13. If that happens, we're not gonna win even with a groundswell if you can't vote on Election Day. So I'm really urging people, prepare for the worst. What's the worst thing that could happen? That we can't vote on Election Day because there's a CrowdStrike-type event, the power goes down, something happens. One more statistic is that people that intend to vote on Election Day, 20% of them, it's a shocker to me. 20% of them don't make it to the polls. Something happens. And so that's also our margin of victory. Please, I'm begging you to vote early. - We have to. And then, you know, one of the things I definitely wanted to talk to you about, 'cause we kind of laid it out last time you were on Ambassador. You were really excited at the prospectus of JD Vance being named as the vice presidential nominee. He was selected by Donald Trump. He was rolled out at the RNC. I think he's been doing a magnificent job since he's hit the ground running. Bouncing around all of these swing and battle ground states, holding rallies. Holding Kamala Harris accountable on the tarmac when he rocks over to her plane with his security detail before he goes and delivers remarks to supporters. I'm really excited for the debate and to see how far JD Vance has come. He had such a wonderful midterm election cycle in 2022. I thought he was the strongest debater out of any of the candidates running across the country in the House, Senate and for gubernatorial races. And then when you look at how it kind of rounds out the ticket and really brings more people under the MAGA 10, I don't think Donald Trump could have made a better choice. And I think moving forward, this is gonna prove to be one of the factors that helps him get over the finish line in November. - I totally agree with you. I think JD is outstanding. And he thinks outside the box, which so does President Trump. Going over to that plane and doing his own presser because she's running from the press. How much do we love that? I want more of that. I loved him as the VP candidate before anyone was talking about him. Maybe you were, but most people weren't thinking about him. But we both ran in 2022 and I got to know him a little bit. He is a very whip smart guy who loves a debate and he's willing to go where many Republicans fear. - You know, I like how Donald Trump has kind of taken a step back from the campaign trail. He's hit it extremely hard. Going to places most traditional conservatives and Republicans wouldn't go Bitcoin conferences the Libertarian Summit, you know, doing live streams with Aidan Ross. He's going to be on X spaces with Elon Musk next week. Just doing all of these things to widen the tent and show that he is running to be the President of the United States and not just the Republican Party. But you know, after the Democrat National Convention, Donald Trump's going to hit the ground running probably with a fully loaded schedule, rallies in multiple states on multiple days. And we're going to see more of the, traditionally the way he's campaigned. I think financially this is a smart move by the Trump team. But at the same time, it does set us up for all of the major news networks who are contractually obligated to cover the Democrat National Convention. I didn't really think it made much sense for Donald Trump to hit it too hard during the DNC because he'd be in a little muted box on the right, you know, hand corner of the screen while they're showing all these radical progressives at the DNC having a party because Joe Biden's gone. But you know, as Kamala Harris rolled out her campaign, she hit the boiler plate issues hard with the Democrats. This election is about abortion. It's about the environment. It's about gun control and things of that nature. We know that's not the same messaging when they're on in prime time. At the end of next week that they're going to have at the DNC, they're going to talk about how they are the party of law and order, how they want to solve the immigration problem, how they're showing strength on the world stage. We all know this is BS, but how do we navigate those waters and then hit the ground running as Republicans following the convention next week? - Yeah, you know, I don't know what President Trump's going to do during their convention. He's a counter programming kind of guy. - Yes. - Who knows what he dreams up and what his team has. Remember, the Democrats aren't the only ones that can do surprises, not just October surprises. So I'm looking forward to seeing what they do. And I also am really thrilled that Texas AG has forced now Act Blue to include those numbers on the back of credit cards so that we know that it's not a Chinese national using the gift card to contribute to Kamala Harris 'cause they've been doing this under Obama two terms, under Biden and now under Kamala Harris. And so we have to get to the bottom of that and he's right about that. You can't have hundreds of millions of dollars pouring in and not have it be suspect when it's sudden and they're mostly new donors, no way. I don't buy that. And it's going to put this a stop to the smurfing where they were taking elderly people, even sometimes Republican donors and using their personal ID information and then donating in their name, hundreds and thousands of times in the sometimes hundreds of thousands of dollars when they're very limited means. They're not, they might make a $15 donation. They're not making a $150,000 donation. So I'm thrilled about that. But getting back to the campaign, JD's on fire, Donald Trump knows exactly what he needs to do. And the American people in spite of the crazy media saying, oh, it's going to be the end of democracy. Oh, he's going to be a totalitarian. We know what he did. He was outstanding president. He had the wind at his front because the three letter agencies and the media were all aligned against him. But his ideas, his love for the American people, his bringing the economy to the best place it's been in my lifetime. And I'm a Reagan Republican. Donald Trump's a better president than Ronald Reagan was. And so any Republican that's saying, oh no, I don't like his mean tweets or I just don't like the man, shame on you, get off your duff and go register and vote for this man and save Western civilization because the rest of the West is falling right now from these leftist policies. We are the last hope. And if we don't get this done right, I really fear for the United States and the Western world and I don't know what the future has for my daughter. And I want it to be bright. I want it to be great and have the American dream be achievable for her too. - I don't think you could have framed it any better than that ambassador. And that's where we're going to leave it. Listen, we've got your bio page at the America First Policy Institute live link in the show description today. And anywhere else we can find it on social media or links that we could put in the show description as well. - Sure Ron, you can follow me on Twitter at Carla H. Sands. I'm hottest there.

She also sits as the Vice Chair at the Center for Energy and the Environment at the America First Policy Institute. Ambassador Carla Sands, thanks for joining us on the show. Have a great weekend.

Thanks for listening, have a great weekend, and take care. - And I haven't been to Europe, and I don't understand the point that you're making, talking about the significance of the passage of time. Right, the significance of the passage of time, so when you think about it, there is great significance to the passage of time. - Ukraine is a country in Europe. It exists next to another country called Russia. Russia is a bigger country, Russia is a powerful country. Russia decided to invade a smaller country called Ukraine. So basically that's wrong. - So you're now no longer are you necessarily keeping those private files in some file cabinet that's locked in the basement of the house. It's on your laptop, and it's then therefore up here in this cloud that exists above us, right? - The Caribbean nations, island nations, in the Western Hemisphere. That's where the Caribbean is. We are also in the Western Hemisphere.
