Donald Trump makes his illustrious, and triumphant return to Butler, Pennsylvania this weekend. We've got a complete recap. It was also a busy new weekend for everyone else running in their respective races. We've got Joe Biden crashing the White House presser. Kamala Harris sitting down with a porn podcast and Tim Walz tripping over his own lies on Fox Sunday morning. President Trump also rallied up in Battleground, Wisconsin. In Juneau to be more specific, we've got a complete recap there. And the Biden-Harris White House is still mired in the Hurricane Helene response ahead of now incoming hurricane Milton. And Kamala Harris absolutely flops when she sits down with 60 minutes news. We've got a great slate of guests coming in here today. We'll be catching up for the first time with senior campaign advisor for the Trump campaign. Corey Lewandowski will be joining us. We'll circle back with South Carolina Congressman Ralph Norman, the Republican House chairwoman. Elise Stefanik will be here as well. And we'll catch up with Newsweek's senior editor at large, Mr. Josh Hammerwood, before we get into any of our interviews. Let's jump right into these headlines. And change the way we consume your news. Okay, this is not nom. This is bowling. There are rules. Hey, hey, hey, junior! America! It's like... FOUR BATHIST! So stand by! Alright, everybody. Welcome to the State for Breakfast podcast. I'm Ro Noah's here with me. Yo. 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 we will be coming favorite political podcast on a busy news Tuesday. Noah, how you doing? I'm ready for some busy news. Well, believe it or not, we are now less than 30 days before the November election. It seemed maybe two or three studios ago and several years that it was never going to get here. We actually used to make fun of how President Trump had his post-announcement rallies right in the beginning of the campaign. We'd be like, "Man, we've got to wait like two and a half years for this, so we're going to make it." Yeah. And here we are now 29 days before election day, one month on the calendar. And if we're going to make it, it's much more dire now at this point. Yeah, you're seeing in real time exactly what you can get if you allow Kamala Harris to win this election, whether it be someone who lives in a hurricane-refished area, the United States, whether or not you're someone listening who might be a gold star parent or sibling of someone who passed away via the military over the course of the last several years, maybe more specifically in places like Afghanistan. Kamala Harris was on the view today. I've got the clip pulled for another news segment where they asked her like, "Let's just go back over the last four years. You guys are two different people. There has to be some things you don't see eye to eye with. What would you change?" And she's like, "I can't think about anything. I wouldn't change nothing. I wouldn't change Abbey Gate. I wouldn't change East Palestine, Ohio. I wouldn't change helping Israel prepare for the October 7th with tax. It's wild. Wouldn't prepare what the US Southern border looks like?" Meanwhile, I know you're a little bit of a fashion guru. Yeah, mate. Now, three of six unlocked characters from the original Dick Tracy movie have now been achieved by Korean Jean Pierre. Yeah, I was thinking her last outfit was either that or slap a green face on her and she's the mask. Yeah, you know, there was comparisons to the mask, but when you look at the actual picture from the cast, from the Vanity Fair article in the original Dick Tracy movie, the comparison is... Oh, my gosh. Yeah. I... What? Bricktop? Yeah, was it Bricktop? Flat top. Flat top. Ha ha ha. Sing. I think the leader was what? Big boy? What a great movie. All right. I just sent you... No, you're going to be laughing in real time here. I just sent you the picture from Vanity Fair. And I just sent you the last three suit suits that Korean Jean Pierre has worn at the White House press conference. Oh, Jesus. Yeah. And will she get them all? You know, she received a promotion. She is now not just the press secretary, but she's also a senior advisor to the president of the United States. People are saying that this is coming on the heels of her poor performance and because she is literally the gold standard of diversity, equity, and inclusion in action firing her or having her leave the administration this close to the election. Would have provided a lot of bad things optically, but could have been spun in the news negatively that, you know, for all of the pronouns, the Biden Harris regime professes themselves on, this wouldn't be a good example on how they deal with it. We've also seen some counter programming this week. We'll get into that in a little bit. You know, Joe Biden, I guess, show-bombed Kamala Harris last Friday right after we got off the podcast. He did it again today while she was on the view. Very interesting to see Joe Biden's. This is 100% on purpose. Is it a villain arc? Is it a hero arc? This all comes following 9/11 when he put the Trump hat on? Who knows? But all I know is that Joe Biden seemed a lot more- Maybe a death arc. Yeah, coherent. And the fact that he's, well, first of all, the Biden that we're getting right now is, you know, you know him well. No, Biden the tall. Oh, right. We're getting, like, the six foot four Biden. He walked out to the White House pressure the other day. And I know Korean Jean Pierre is short, but man, he's- He's got springing his step now. It's weird. Yeah. It's like he's really feeling it, heading out the door in this election cycle. And Kamala Harris is feeling it even in the polls. So we'll get into that a little bit. It's been a little while since Kamala's felt it in the poll, I would assume. Oh, certainly has disgusting. Did you catch any of the Butler rally this weekend? Donald Trump's triumphant return to the place where 12 weeks prior, he was nearly taken from us at the hands of a would-be assassin. Yeah, I think Elon needed to take out his AirPods and turn Van Halen's jump off. Speaking of springing his step, man, was he ever excited to make his first real- Did you see the one where they animated him and made it look like he was flying? Yeah, so good. But his first real big political statement coming at the Butler rally, as the original rally was where Elon Musk was inspired to abandon his inhibitions that he priori held against Donald Trump and understood that that's what real leadership, especially in the face of a crisis such as that, looks like. We've seen a lot of more examples of Donald Trump and what leadership looks like over the course of the last couple of weeks, obviously beating the entire administration up in Washington, DC down to the disaster zones, providing reliefs to people in need, collaborating with governors when he's not a sitting politician, he's just a candidate, and sending a lot of his surrogates out there to do much of the same. We've also seen Elon Musk, you know, he only does shit one way, all in. And did you hear about this petition he's got going on online? Is it the one where you get paid $45 if you bring, refer somebody? $47. Yeah, and his goal is to hit a million. This is again attached to his pack, which is raising ridiculous amounts of cash for Donald Trump right now. His goal is one million petition signers, which means he would be on the hook for $47 million invested in this campaign in addition to all the stuff he's physically doing. Now he's well on his way to becoming the first trillionaire in the history of the United States. I mean, I don't want Dan Pena to hear that too loud. But yeah, he might be that in the very near future. What else did we see? Antonio Brown. You see, he's all in for President Trump. He referred to, I believe it was Donald Trump Jr's cracker of the day on his Twitter account, to which point J.D. Vance, quote tweeted Antonio Brown's cracker of the day award recipient post with the J.D. Vance breaking the fall picture from the vice presidential debate. He posted himself? Yes, and then they, you know, we're all posting each other's DMs. It seems like Antonio Brown wants to use the former all-star wide receiver who is best known for his times with the Steelers and other teams as well. You know, weaponizing his millions of fans to get involved physically in this upcoming election, getting them registered and getting them out to the polls for Donald Trump. Listen, this team that we're building, it's one that all of it seems laughable, maybe even just five or six months ago, but it's really coming together. And I always try to figure like, who would be like the guardians of the Galaxy? You could always say it's Elon Musk, but I think he's more of an Ironman. When you look at Antonio Brown, he'd be a perfect star Lord. Oh, yeah. The only reason he's good in space might be making a double entendre about football. It's because he's physically been there and he brings the comedic arc in almost a way that people like JD Vance and Donald Trump Jr. even the former president and current Republican nominee can just because Donald Trump can't post people as cracker of the day, dog of the day, n-word of the day, et cetera. So here we are, again, one month from election day, four Tuesdays from now. We will hopefully find out who will be the next president of the United States. We're hoping it's Donald Trump, but we'll have to see as much news will be coming down the pike between then and now and we're here for it. Can't talk about our all-star guest list enough today. Speaking of the Trump campaign, top senior advisor, man who's been there since, believe it or not, 2014, and Exploratories with Donald Trump. Corey Lewandowski will be making his first appearance here on State for Breakfast, really glad to catch up with him, got the email yesterday. Hey, he's got some time. We'd love to jump on. Can you guys make it happen? Boom, you got it. South Carolina Congressman Ralph Norman who's been dealing with a lot of the hurricane relief stuff down there in the Palmetto state will be joining us to round out our lineup in our first edition. Speaking of people who reached out today who said they had time to come on the show, the Republican House chair, chairwoman Elise Stefanik will be returning to State for Breakfast today as well. She'll be our first interview in our second show and conservative podcast host, Pundit, and attorney Josh Hammer will be here today to round up our guest lineup, one of Noah's favorite Apple Podcasts commercial hosts. So we're here for it. It's going to be an absolute banger of two episodes of State for Breakfast. And let's jump in to where all of America and probably even the world was focused in on this weekend. Not any of the crises going on, not the potential category five hurricane. It's going to hit Florida later this week. But in the small rural town of Butler, Pennsylvania, where well over a hundred thousand supporters came out for Donald Trump in a rally. And I'm actually surprised I could say this after probably covering a thousand of them over the course of the last eight years. This one was different. It really was. Donald Trump arrived. He arrived on time. And when he came out after the introduction, we heard something that was a little bit less traditional. We saw it at the RNC, we got it again in Butler. But before we get into actually the rally bits and pieces, let's jump in with the vice presidential candidate, Ohio Senator JD Vance, as he was getting the crowd warmed up before Donald Trump checked the stage. Let's check out the first clip. Now you heard the shots. You saw the blood. We all feared the worst. But you knew everything would be okay when President Trump raised his fist high in the air and shouted. Fight. Fight. Now I believe, as sure as I'm standing here today, that what happened was a true miracle. And on that day, America felt the truth of scripture. Though I walked through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me. I still can't say enough about the job that JD Vance has done since Donald Trump tapped him. No, do you have any complaints about the Ohio Senator and how he's kind of been getting the President Trump's yang coming out of the Republican National Convention and the things that he's done, including the vice presidential debate, speaking engagements that he does by himself, which are, I have to admit, pretty well he attended. This guy can pack a hall with the best of them. And seems like he's just dry, funny enough to keep the crowd going when he really needs to. I mean, coming from a guy that I knew nothing about until they brought him up, the guy has been 10 out of 10 for being on top of his shit. I like it. Yeah. I mean, outside of strongly worded press statements, it was hard for JD Vance to get a lot done on the Senate, other than holding the slim minority because, obviously, of leadership and his aligning ideologically with Donald Trump. All right, keeping things rolling here and getting into the gist of the rally. And again, over 100,000 people, they reported close to, I guess, 107. The flyover, you could definitely confirm this was massive. They had drones flying both for protection and, of course, Dan Scavino's during the rally, which you were able to see, the largeness of the audience. And I'll be honest with you, I'll spoil a little bit of the ending. No, this is actually the first time I've ever seen because, you know, when Donald Trump wraps up YMCA queues now, and he does a little dance. He does a couple of laps, a couple points, and then he's exit stage left. Well, Donald Trump stood around after the rally today or after the rally this weekend for the entirety of YMCA. And the crowd, literally, for the first time that I've seen ever turned into a full-on dance party, like they were actually doing the YMCA things that I always look for in the crowd. Like, do people really do that, or are they just clapping and waving? And it's because he usually exits so quickly that they're able to just clap and wave. But in this case, they were actually able to do the entire YMCA. Yeah, if you let the song build up the rest of the way, people are going to be like, "Oh, uh, uh, uh, uh." Yep, there you go. And believe it or not, this is the first time maybe in my recorded memory. No, you might be able to fact check me in this. Have you ever seen an encorded Trump rally? I haven't. No. Oh, we got our first one today, and we'll dive into that. But let's start out where Donald Trump took the stage. This time to a live rendition of "God Bless the USA" by Lee Greenwood, who was also there, and provided a just wonderful version of his iconic song that Donald Trump uses for the entrance to a lot of his speaking events. Let's hear it. And it's time we stand and say, that I'm proud to be an American, where at least I know I'm free. And I won't forget the men who died who gave that right to me. And I gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today. Was there a note out, I love this land. God bless the USA. Sing it. And I'm proud to be an American, where at least I know I'm free. And I won't forget the men who died who gave that right to me. And I gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today. Was there a note out, I love this land. God bless the USA. And I mean he was halfway through that portion of the song there towards the end. And Donald Trump just went up and put his arm around him. And that's when Lee Greenwood really got fired up. And when you hear that last like symbol crash, he like took the microphone and swung it down. It was good. I was smiling big. The crowd was smiling big. Donald Trump was smiling big and was really excited, you know, for a lot of different reasons to be there. But I have to say the emotional tone of this rally outside of it being Donald Trump's return to the place where he was almost assassinated was people were hurt. One man, a father, a big important part of the community up there in Butler, Pennsylvania lost his life protecting his family from the gunfire. And there was almost like a prayerful musical undertone to this entire event. And we'll break it down for you guys as we're going to unpack it right now. But you know, Donald Trump had teased it out on the campaign trail of where he was going to pick up when he got back to Butler. And it was literally at the time of his rally where he was talking about that immigration chart as he let the crowd know exactly what he was about to say right before the shots rang off. Let's hear it. Lee, thank you very much, really. And thank you. A very big thank you to Pennsylvania. We love Pennsylvania. And as I was saying... Oh, I love that. I love that chart. I love that graph. The chart came up on the big screen. Donald Trump took a long hard turn look at it much in the same way he did right before he was shot. And then he would get into a speech which we're going to get into now. Again, there was some of the normal typical policy points. We're talking about open borders. We're talking about rampant crime. We're talking about where American taxpayer dollars are going to fund forever wars. We're talking about current state of the economy. But again, this rally was different. This rally was about Donald Trump's return, the resolve he had in the face of extreme adversity, almost losing his life, the fact that he was going there to help a community remember one of their fallen. And as you'll see throughout the course of the next couple clips are going to play, which traditionally will stay outside of the normal policy talking points or just be like we're doing the same episode over. I try to pull or find or cut the clips where Donald Trump is talking about things other than the campaign trail because at this point of the season, if you're not down with what Donald Trump's bringing in regards to his policy platform, and at the same time listening to this podcast and I really don't know why you're here, but welcome right now. We're here for everybody. Nobody thought Elon Musk would be speaking at a Trump rally a month before the election, but here we are. Or that Antonio Brown would be calling Donald Trump, Jr. Cracker the day and JD Vance would be again breaking the fourth wall on it. But again, here we are. And here was Donald Trump talking about returning to Butler 12 weeks after he nearly lost his life. Let's check it out. Exactly 12 weeks ago this evening on this very ground, a cold-blooded assassin aimed to silence me and to silence the greatest movement, MAGA, in the history of our country, MAGA. We love MAGA. For 16 harrowing seconds during the gunfire, time stopped as this vicious monster unleashed pure evil from his sniper's perch, not so far away, but by the hand of Providence and the grace of God that villain did not succeed in his goal did not come close. He did not stop our movement. He did not break out our spirit. He did not shake our unyielding resolve to save America from evils of poverty, hatred, and destruction. And we're just going to kind of bounce through the beginning of President Trump's speech because I think it's good that we hear it kind of broken up but altogether so we can kind of commentate on it. You know, the emotional level where he was coming from, obviously this isn't your traditional four more years of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, even though we would hear it in parts of the event, it wasn't how he was leading in. Let's check out this next one. Evening in record numbers, this is a big crowd. This is a big one. Not only to mark the triumph of American spirit but over, and you know that this is really truly in the truest sense spirit over evil and adversity, but also to pay tribute to some of the best and bravest we have ever known. This field is now a monument to the valor of our first responders, to the resilience of our fellow citizens and to the sacrifice of a loving and devoted father, a really great man. You know that. Forever afterward. Forever after all who have visited this hallowed place will remember what happened here. And they will know of the character and courage that so many incredible American patriots have showed and know, and they know it at a level never seen before probably. You could tell the interactiveness level of the crowd, which would take over the rally and some portions of it which will play for you guys. They obviously were paying homage to by Channing Corey over and over again that's Corey Comperator, the firefighter and father, husband, brother who lost his life, the day they nearly assassinated President Trump. A little bit more, I wouldn't say somber, but there's something else here, the undertone of this, where it's not just your typical Trump rally. I don't know, there was more of an emotional tone to this and a typical Trump rally where they're usually lighthearted and, you know, have poignant messaging. But in this case, it was more of like, it felt like a family affair, even though there was almost 110,000 people there. Yeah, a little bit of a different angle. Yeah, that's true. And one of the things Donald Trump pointed out next, and I think it's going to be the biggest receipt that they can bring on Election Day when Donald Trump's able to recapture the White House, is the way that his political opponents and enemies over the course of the entirety of his time, both as a public and private life, have been before he entered, and now since he's been in the political arena, the way people underestimate not only him, but the America First and MAGA movement and how it's so much bigger, stronger, and more powerful than ever before. And what it means in a context of where this isn't about Donald Trump, this is about all the people he's looking to represent. Let's hear it. So what our opponents have never understood is that this movement has never been about me. It's always been about you. It's been about a lot of people, millions and millions of people. The biggest ever in the history of this country may be anywhere. And every day people who are the heart and soul of our country, they love our movement, they love our country, and they know they're doing right. Your hopes are my hopes, your dreams are my dreams, and your future is what I am fighting for every single day. And again, segueing back to his opening statement of taking a bullet, well not just for democracy, but America. And what it's meant for his campaign, the way he's viewed life, maybe even the dynamic of his family spiritually and kind of everything in between, and how important it is to get out there and vote. Early voting is already taking place in some states. Registration in Pennsylvania is getting ready to close and make sure that we tip that battleground state back in the direction of Donald Trump, this election cycle, so that we can almost guarantee with getting the Keystone State early and on the East Coast on election night, we can almost guarantee of Georgia and North Carolina fall into place that Kamala Harris does not have a pathway to the White House. So 12 weeks ago we all took a bullet for America and all we are all asking is that everyone goes out and votes, we got to win, we can't let this happen to our country, we can't, we can't take another four years like this, we won't have a country left, we're not going to have a country left. And all of this will be for nothing if you don't get out and vote, it will all be for nothing, we will have talked about it, but, and if we do it, it'll be the greatest achievement, I think, in the history of politics for all of us for this age. Because we're going to change our country around and fast, we're going to do things that nobody thought were possible, we're going to do them fast. So Pennsylvania is time to stand up for America and time to save our country, this is really about saving our country, it's never been like this. When you look at the crime, look at the crime, look at the people that are coming in, murderers, 13,099 murders led in over the last short period of time. Murderers that have been released from penitentiaries, prisons, jails, released into our country, crime rates all over the world are down, they're taking their gang members and their criminals, they're taking their people in jail, and they're releasing them into our country, we can't have it. You know, we just can't have it. How do you get more simple than that? They're releasing murderers, they're releasing drug dealers, they're releasing gang members and criminals, human traffickers, mostly they traffic in women, and they're releasing them all into our country, and they're emptying their jails and their crime rates in Venezuela are way down because, you know, but it's not only in South America, it's all over the world in Africa, they're coming out of the Congo, a lot of people coming out of the Congo in Africa, they're coming out from Asia, they're coming out from the Middle East Yemen, they're coming out from Yemen, a lot of people coming out of Yemen, and they're known terrorists, and they just release them into our country. Some countries are known also, they know nothing about the people who go right in, these people are crazy, and it's the truth, can't argue that. We've had so many, whether it be whistleblowers, whether it be eventually final numbers coming out from the Department of Homeland Security, whether it be people on the ground who have, you know, spoke to the press, whether it be on or offline. It's important that there's, you know, I listened to, can't remember what podcast it was, but they went into like, they went off the rails for like 20 minutes talking about how when the Taliban retook Afghanistan, you know, there was a way that they essentially took over a passport office, I guess, via one of the embassies, and essentially just could print passports that are official, that they could use to get into Europe, that they could use to get in South America, and the biographical information in the passports could be completely fraudulent, and fake, not true, it's not the person, but because it's an official passport and coming from a passport office, they're legitimate. And that's how these terrorists are making their way into places like Germany and France and the UK, and then in regards to South America, you know, making their way up to the US Southern border before ditching said passport, and maybe even giving another fake identity to people that are apprehending them so they can gain access to the country, because, remember, no one's going home under this administration, you could pretty much agree with that right now. Yeah, ice is at like 4%, 4% out of 100 of their deportation capacity and capabilities under Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. And I wouldn't even know what would make the benchmark, maybe it's, you know, someone who has a green card that says they want to get their citizenship so they could vote for Donald Trump, or somebody coming across the US Southern border with a MAGA hat on. Those people are instantly set up for deportations, but all the other people, whether they're going to register them while they're getting their IDs and somehow fraudulently use their ballots, or people are being encouraged in communities where they know you don't need to provide any like the entire state of California for one, it's now a felony to ask for somebody's identification or question their citizenship in regards to federal elections. How do you like that Noah? That one is absolutely ridiculous. That one should just be normal. I mean, we just came from having to show your ID and your fucking papers to get into a fucking restaurant here. Like, fuck you. Yeah, it's crazy. And of course, people like Evan Newsom facilitate this bullshit. And again, getting back to what President Trump was saying, this has been a pushback against the failed political establishment, something that was put into his keynote acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention all the way back in 2016, he tapped threads of this during his rally in Butler, Pennsylvania this weekend. Let's check it out. But from the very beginning of this journey, I've been on a mission to rescue our country from a failed and very corrupt political establishment, very corrupt. We have to change it. We have to change it. We need also a very free and open press. And to give it back to the country you believe in, and I believe in, it's a country that we were born in, and the country that you deserve. You have to, you deserve this. In that mission, I will never quit. I will never bend. I will never break. I will never yield. Not even in the face of death itself. I like it. And, uh, suck it, Lib Tarts. He's already proved it. You know, it's crazy. And referencing again, Pennsylvania, there are a lot of people who are being a little bit hyper critical about where the Trump campaign is and is not doing the most work. Again, Charlie Kirk, big head Charlie, has got a pretty well established apparatus out in the great state of Arizona. Um, and he's been doing a lot of work in regards to getting people registered, getting students, and the young people involved, and really chasing these ballots ahead of the election. Now is the entire Democrat government over there in the state of Arizona, starting at the governor's office and through the local house and Senate, making it extremely difficult to have the best election possible. Yes, but I think people like big head Charlie have really put in the work, and we'll see those results on election day. Remember, Donald Trump is at the top of the ticket this time, and everybody remembers what happened in Arizona in 2020. It's not going to happen again in regards to the polls, or maybe the race being called inaccurately, or early bread bear. But Donald Trump is focusing heavy on Wisconsin, Michigan, North Carolina, Georgia, and Pennsylvania, as sweeping the East Coast states and then any combination of the rest make it very difficult for Kamala Harris to win the White House, breaking through the blue wall and picking up states and picking up states in the Rust Belt nearly seals the deal for Republican candidates. And I think in a time where the economy is so bad, and the energy and the agriculture industry is under such attack from this administration, where you look at places that you have to focus. And again, now in Arizona, yes, the economy is an issue. Yes, the border is an issue. But where do you go from there? It's not like they have tons of natural resources to glean from, even though there is a lot of farmland in Arizona, believe it or not, as there is compared to places like Pennsylvania. And I think Donald Trump's just kind of shifted his direction to the Keystone State and the great Commonwealth talked about it at the top of this rally. >> Here in this incredible Commonwealth, we stand on the shoulders of generations of Pennsylvania patriots who gave everything they could give every single thing for their rights and for their freedom. Pennsylvania is where our founding fathers declared American independence and sounded the beautiful Liberty Bell. It's where the Army weathered its brutal winter at Valley Forge, where General George Washington led his men on a daring mission across the Delaware. And where generations of tough, strong, beautiful miners and steelworkers put Pennsylvania's spirit into every single thing they did. And from Gettysburg to Germantown and Philadelphia to Barren Hill and from Brandywine to right here in Butler. This is the place where Pennsylvania patriots poured out their blood with the love of their country. They love their country so much. >> I like when he kind of gets into that thread there and talks about the historical components of the state that he's in or the town or the city. I think it adds a personal spin on the rally, it looks like, and also makes it seem like he puts in the time as well. And I do want to kind of jump ahead a little bit to the rally, you know, because, you know, there was a portion that Donald Trump, and it was actually at the exact moment after the gunshots went off. He decided to slow things down after his opening remarks and put this into a little bit more of a family affair. And that would be with a remembrance for Corey Comperham Tory, the volunteer firefighter who lost his life shielding his family from bullets that day. Did you see the opera singer that was there? >> No, I think I missed that one. >> Yeah, he actually came out during the rally and would be part of the after credits, believe it or not, as well. And Donald Trump wanted to, you know, pay tribute to Corey who lost his life, and I'm going to play the clip right now so you guys can kind of hear it. In addition to Chris Machio, the Italian American, oh, no, happy Italian American Heritage Month. >> Nice. >> And I saw that there was like some pronouns that are observed this month and some other insignificant bullshit. But when you want to talk about people who have really two double entendres in one episode of State for Breakfast, laid the foundations of this country, you don't have to really lean on a good portion of our Italian American immigrants, as my family once was. All four grandparents coming over from the country shaped like a boot and letting us make Sunday gravy great again here in the United States. But that's neither here nor there because we're talking about another great Italian, Corey Comperham Tory, and let's hear that part of the rally. And again, I would like to ask everyone to join me in a moment of silence. [piano music] [piano music] [piano music] [piano music] [piano music] [piano music] >> I bet you didn't think you were getting a live rendition of "Ave Maria." >> No, that was actually pretty epic. >> I'll tell you what, sometimes I'm a big push. And watching this thing in real time, it's a lot different than going through the clips, cutting it up for the show, et cetera. And I got emotional a couple times. Like, I didn't expect this. This guy sometimes will do the National Anthem or God Bless America at Yankee Stadium, the Knicks games, the Ranger games, et cetera. He is just an absolute talent. And I did not know he was friends with Donald Trump like that. Obviously, he performed at Donald Trump's rally in Long Island a couple weeks ago, but I didn't think he'd be making the trip up to Butler with him. But just what an amazing tribute to this there. And you can't say enough about how the community came around Donald Trump, and then he kind of gave love back to them in the moment. Really touching there. But listen, there was a musical theme to this entire event. We already heard Lee Greenwood come out to "God Bless the USA." Now a rendition of "Ave Maria" in "Remembering Cory" "Conpertory." And then shortly after that happened, someone passed out in the crowd. No, we've seen this before. >> Yeah. >> Donald Trump will stop the rally, he'll ask for first responders, he'll kind of direct them, and tell everybody to calm down, and let things kind of play out. But would you believe me if I told you a spontaneous rendition of the National Anthem broke out during this time? >> I missed a lot of this rally. I was unfortunately only able to catch just a couple of clips here and there, but I think most of the clips I saw were Elon Musk jumping. But when you think about the musical undertones and how they kind of took over the rally, I'm going to play a clip right here. I mean this just was something different than a traditional Trump rally, let's hear it. [Music] >> Donald Trump starts doing, like, the Maestro to the crowd. >> Nice. >> I always wondered what over 100,000 people singing the National Anthem would sound like. [Music] >> Now he's singing. [Music] >> A smile. [Music] [Applause] >> And again this was during a portion of the rally where an elderly woman had passed out. Donald Trump had directed first responders to attend to her. He was just kind of, you know, down to Mackinforth, looking around, waving, pointing at a couple people, and then spontaneous. National Anthem breaks out. He partakes, and we would get back to the rally, but before we get back to the rally, we're going to do a little bit of station identification here.

On the show, like our first ever interview with Trump senior campaign advisor Corey Lewandowski is going to be coming down the pike here in just a second. Without further ado, I know Noah's looking forward to hearing it in its entirety. Elon Musk did take the stage after he was introduced by Donald Trump. He announced on Friday that he'd be attending the rally in person, the first one that he would do so. And afterwards, told the press that he'd be doing a lot more things for Donald Trump, including traveling with him over the course of the next 30 days, leading up to election day. Again, we've told you guys this more than once, Elon Musk only does it one way, all in, whether it's SpaceX, whether it's Tesla, whether it's going to the Moon or Mars. This guy only knows one way to do it. You obviously seen in the face of adversity that he's had to kind of take on since he purchased Twitter and turned it into X. Well, here's his first speech entering the political arena up in Butler, Pennsylvania this weekend. Let's hear it. His name is Elon Musk. He saved free speech. He created so many different great things. Where is he? Come on up here, Elon. He created the first major American car company in generations, and his rocket company is the only reason we can now send American astronauts into space. Come here. Take over, Elon. Yes, take over. Hi, everyone. I mean, Elon Musk, maybe you've heard of me. As you can see, I'm not just Maggie, I'm Doc Magga. I'm a confirm. First of all, I want to say what an honor it is to be here, and, you know, the true test of someone's character is how they behave under fire. And we had one president who couldn't climb a flight of stairs, and another who was fist-pumping after getting shot. Fight, fight, fight. Blood coming down the face. Now, America is the home of the brave. And there's no true test, then, courage under fire. So, who do you want representing America? Yeah. Absolutely. And I think this election, I think it's the most important election of our lifetime. This is no ordinary election. The other side wants to take away your freedom of speech. They want to take away your right to bear arms. They want to take away your right to vote effectively. We've got 14 states now that require voter ID. California, where I used to live, is just passed a law banning voter ID for voting. I still can't believe that's real. So, how are you supposed to have a good proper election if there's no ID? It's meaningless. And free speech. Free speech is the bedrock of democracy. If people don't know what's going on, if they don't know the truth, how can you make an informed vote? You must have free speech in order to have democracy. That's why it's the First Amendment. And the Second Amendment is there to ensure that we have the First Amendment. President Trump must win to preserve the Constitution. He must win to preserve democracy in America. (Applause) Yes. This is a must win situation. So, I have one ask for everyone in the audience, everyone who watches this video, everyone in the live stream, this one request is very important. Register to vote. And get everyone you know, and everyone you don't know, drag them to register to vote. There's only two days left to register to vote in Georgia and Arizona, 48 hours. Like text people now. Now. And then make sure they actually do vote. If they don't, this will be the last election. That's my prediction. Nothing's more important. Nothing's more important. So, get everyone you know. So, speaking to people out there, everyone in the crowd I think is already convinced. But for people out there that are watching the video, watching the live stream, you need to get everyone you know, at work, your friends, family, tech groups, your social media, everything. Get them to register to vote right now. Only two days left for Georgia and Arizona. Only a couple weeks left in Pennsylvania. And if they're not registered to vote, it doesn't matter at that point. Register to vote. I'm being repetitive for a reason. Okay. So, nothing is more important. And a lot of people think maybe the vote doesn't count. Well, it does. Okay. It does. It matters. And this election could be decided by 1,000 votes, 500 votes. It's a tiny margin. So, get everyone you know to register to vote. I believe it's swapthevote.com. I believe that's the site. And double check that your registration is good. Don't take it for granted. I'm just being repetitive about this point because it is the one takeaway. One thing that will matter is getting those registrations. And then getting everyone you know to actually vote. That is what will decide this election, especially in Pennsylvania. [Applause] So, thank you. And honestly, you want to just be a pest. Just be a pest to everyone you know, people on the street everywhere. Vote, vote, vote. Fight, fight, fight, vote, vote. [Applause] Will you take Noah? He's an awkward guy, but he's pretty good. You could tell that there's a lot of personal investment in this. You know, he sat down for a podcast with Tucker Carlson. If we don't have anything relevant that comes up, I'm going to throw it in as our after credit today where they're joking back and forth. He's like, "Oh man, I wonder how long my prison sentence is going to be. Am I going to be able to see my kids grow up or am I going to be able to see them again when I'm an adult?" And Tucker Carlson's like, "Oh, you think you're going to get out?" And they were both laughing, but it was kind of like, "Yeah, this is funny." But that's the truth. And then they went into joking, "Why? Come on, ours is such an insignificant candidate that Elon Musk took some heat for saying like, "It's not a big deal. Nobody wants to assassinate her." Geez, got to love it. And I loved hearing him as his entrance to the political arena is now complete. I think I've only got one more clip before we get into the closeout here, and that's Donald Trump talking essentially to all Americans, not just the people within the Republican Party, not just the people who were at the rally up in Butler this weekend. And I'm going to play for you right now and check it out. All Americans, whether you are Republican, Democrat, independent, conservative or liberal, or you have no label whatsoever, it makes no difference or movement. It belongs to you. It belongs to our country. It belongs to our country. And together in just one month, we are going to usher in a new golden age of American security, prosperity, sovereignty, and freedom for our citizens of every race, religion, color, and creed. You know, it's pretty interesting. He talks about the next golden age for America. My son this weekend, I guess he was feeling a little forlorn or maybe nostalgic. Well, on a personal note, we completed like the funeral/remembering services for my sister this weekend. So, you know, it took some time for her to get cremated after she unexpectedly passed a little over a month ago. And then we had to wait for all the kids to be on vacation for the family to get together. As the initial services were taken up during, you know, when they were in school the first time and after it happened. But he asked to watch the 1980s, Transformers of the movie with me this weekend after we came home one of the nights. So we sat there and literally watched the whole thing. He was all into it. I mean, one of the best soundtracks ever. Yeah, it's a solid one. Certainly is. Whether it's dare or you got the touch, dare to be stupid. There's just some absolute bangers in that movie. But it talks about the golden age for the Transformers at the end of the movie coming in the year 2005. And he just like looks at me all the time. He's like, he passed. I said, "Yeah, look at how behind the curve we are. We got some work to make up." He says the same kind of things when we watch, like, back to the future and things of that nature. It's just kind of funny how those things line up and how Donald Trump is trying to, I guess, assure everybody that coming out of this tragedy and I'll be it with incurring some major losses, we're going to be okay. And I think I kind of had the same vibe going on in my house this weekend and it was just kind of busy. But this was something that I was able to sit down and kind of take in and really understand that this was, like I had said before, a different kind of Trump rally. We're going to get into the closeout here and listen to a portion of that before, and for the first time that I can ever remember, we'll check out pieces of the encore as well. Let's listen. And no one will ever stop us no matter what dangers come our way. No matter what obstacles we must face, we will keep striving toward our magnificent American future. We will not fail. We will not allow ourselves to fail. From this day forward, we will always put America first and we will take back and save the United States. November 5th, Election Day will be the most important day in the history of our country. And together with the great people of Pennsylvania, we will make America powerful again. We will make America wealthy again. We will make America healthy again. We will make America strong again. We will make America proud again. We will make America safe again. And we will make America great again. Thank you, Pennsylvania. God bless you. God bless you, Pennsylvania. And with the pumping of a fist and cuing of YMCA, Donald Trump moseied outside of the ballistics class to dance and share in remembrance of all the bad things, the tragic things that happened that day. But the comeback as well, with the over 100, 1000 supporters who were still in attendance know him. I don't even have to ask. Why don't you do me a favor and rate it? Ten out of ten. This is actually going to be a ten out of ten for me as well. I might even be going well outside of the traditional Port Noe in the next rally we cover in our next edition of State of Breakfast down in Wisconsin. But as I had mentioned, and as you can hear, Donald Trump is not ecstasy, stage left. He's remaining with the crowd. He's actually doing the dance and he was almost directing them to perform the YMCA dance. When it hit the chorus, as I'm watching right now, and again, the people in the risers, if you hadn't had the opportunity, go on Team Trump, the MAGA War Room, or Donald Trump's Twitter accounts. Click on the Butler rally. Zoom it all the way through to about three hours and five minutes, and you will see just the energy level here of 107 plus thousand people dancing in unison to an absolute 70s banger. I'm going to give it a ten out of ten as well. So again, why was Donald Trump just kind of hanging around? Because there was something else. The opera singer who came out and performed Abe Maria during the portion of the rally where they were remembering Corey Compertory returned to the stage, shook Donald Trump's hand, gave him a hug, took a bow, and then was going to do a little bit more. Our first ever Trump rally encore, where I heard, "Hallelujah, you like that song Noah?" Yeah, I can dig it. A lot of our older listeners who are hoping for a fifth sequel at some point will remember it from amazing movies like Shrek. Let's hear just a little bit of it before we jump in with Corey Lewandowski. (Singing in foreign language) (Singing in foreign language) (Singing in foreign language) (Singing in foreign language) (Singing in foreign language) Ladies and gentlemen, the next present is in a stage. (Singing in foreign language) (Singing in foreign language) I think it really built them out, huh? Yeah, it's impressive. (Singing in foreign language) (Singing in foreign language) (Singing in foreign language) (Singing in foreign language) You know, Noah, I do have to point out, in between YMCA and Hallelujah, they did again like at the end of the Long Island, New York rally, a rendition of Nesum Dorma, which is featured in the movie, maybe you've heard of it, some of all fears, where traders to the United States are executed. Oops, nearly three months ago we saw the Deep State take their best shot at Donald Trump and miss, and now flanked by an Italian American opera star, Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and a majority of those looking to make this country great again. They sent a reminder to the Deep State that I hope their days are numbered, and on November 5th we're going to win. I'm going to kind of leave it at that, as we're getting ready to jump in with senior staffer and campaign surrogate to the Trump Organization, Corey Lewandowski for the first time. But before we do, let's have a first check in with one of our partners. Friends, I want to take a minute and talk to you about cigars.

He's a senior advisor to the Trump campaign who's been along the road just about every step of the way. Really excited to be catching up with Mr. Corey Lewandowski. Welcome to the show. Thank you. Good morning. Always a pleasure. But listen, before we get into it, Corey, we have to ask you personally. I'm sure enough people don't. How has this whole experience been being back on the Trump campaign at the end of what could be one of the greatest political comebacks in the history of our country? Someone who has seen President Trump rise and re-rise to prominence over the course of the last nearly a decade now since he's entered the political arena. And what it's been like to watch this country, I guess in the same sense, kind of rise and fall and be ready for what we're all hoping is going to be greatness again. Well, it's been a roller coaster, as you can imagine. When we started this way back in 2014, if you can believe it 10 years ago, listening to Donald Trump out talking about how to make America great again, no one really took him seriously. And then he took the world by storm in 16-1. Our country was better off for the four years he was in the administration running this country. And then we've seen what's happened over the last four years and our country's been in serious decline. So, you know, our country's fortunes have risen and fallen with Donald Trump's ability to be successful. And we are hopeful that in just four weeks from now, hopefully election night will give us the results. Donald Trump will be back in the White House in January. And I've been part of that ride from the very beginning, but there's been a lot of ups and downs and we're ready for this country to get back on its feet. Yeah, and that is something that I think could best sum it up, much in the same way that I want to jump into this and ask you about the coming out of the recent weekend and the return to Butler, Pennsylvania. You know, America watched 12 weeks ago as we almost lost President Trump at the, you know, hands of a would-be assassin. If it wasn't for, you know, the quick actions of the Secret Service, who knows what would have happened. And to see President Trump not only not take time off the campaign trail, I mean, obviously being at the RNC, the emotional speech, which where he, you know, clarified for the American public, he wasn't running to be the candidate who represents the Republican Party. He's running to be the candidate that represents all Americans coming out of that event and galvanized and then hitting the campaign trail again, and even more widening the tent, you know, in America first, in a way we've never seen a political candidate do it before, adding people like Elon Musk and Tulsi Gabbard and R.F.K. Jr. along the way. How has it been to see the President bounce back from that? How emotional was it this weekend up in Butler when we saw, you know, listen, every Trump rally is something that brings Americans together. It's a good time. There are comical parts. There are parts that kind of outline the distress level that this country is in right now. There's the optimism of what President Trump could bring on the other side of the ballot box. But I watched the rally up in Butler now twice, breaking it down for the show as we just finished doing a full comprehensive recap. There was a different tone. It was like more of a love fest. It was something where we had remembrance for people like the firefighter who lost his life on that day as well. And I just kind of want to gauge your opinion on how you thought the rally went down. Well, it's very emotional getting to the rally. You know, we're on the plane ride on the way up there. The President asked us as a staff how he thought he should start the speech. And I think it was very instructional when he said, as I was saying, as a pickup to where he was when he was shot. You know, I think the crowd recognized that obviously we had a moment of silence and the bells went off at 6/11, which was the exact time when he was shot and Corey lost his life. And the two others were also, you know, very seriously wounded. So it was a very emotional rally. The crowd was enormous. It was probably 100,000 people there. But more than that, it was the ability to go back and talk about the fact that we had unfinished business in Butler, Pennsylvania. And this country, like Donald Trump, when he gets knocked down, is going to stand back up and be stronger and better for. So it was a very emotional rally. We go back on the plane after the Butler, Pennsylvania event. And I've probably been to three, 400 rallies. I said to the President, this had to be one of my very favorites. Definitely a top five, emotional, high energy. The Elon Musk thing was exciting and incredible. You know, him jumping up on the stage, kind of like a little kid being introduced. And this is a guy who's worth a quarter of a trillion dollars, 260 billion dollars. And he was introduced to a crowd. And he was just so emotional because he knows what's at stake this election. So it was a very special rally. I've been to a lot of them. But Butler, Pennsylvania has to be one of the top five I've ever done. Yeah, I think it would have to rank up there as well. And then, you know, continuing to talking about, you know, bringing in all the people who haven't traditionally been under the MAGA tent or, you know, in a way of showing how America First is something that can work for all Americans. We saw Elon Musk give one of his first, if not real first, weigh in politically with a portion of the speech he gave during the Trump rally. Now, whether we see it's the way people who maybe didn't support President Trump in an elections past, like Tulsi Gabbard or RFK Jr have come underneath the MAGA tent, to see Elon Musk, someone with that big of influence, who was inspired after what happened in Butler, Pennsylvania to make it onto the stage and talk to Americans from his heart on why this is the most important election of our time and what it means for Americans to get Donald Trump back in the White House. How is that, you know, especially from the campaign standpoint to see the unity that Donald Trump is bringing along the campaign trail? It seems no matter what the mainstream media is saying or doing or kind of alluding to otherwise. You know, it's very humbling. When you look at RFK Jr, you look at Tulsi Gabbard, the people who want to make America healthy again, which is what the RFK Jr and Tulsi Gabbard events are all about. It's about making sure that the government doesn't tell you what to do with your body as they did during COVID. You know, RFK Jr, I was there when he endorsed in Glendale, Arizona. I was at that event. Next to Donald Trump, I've never heard somebody get such a warm reception on a stage when they walked out. He came out to the song, "There Goes My Hero." And he is all in. And listen, the truth is, if the election system wasn't rigged, he probably would have been the Democratic nominee, but they stole the election. They threw Joe Biden out. They stuck Vice President Harris in as their nominee. I think that, you know, RFK Jr would have been a much better choice for them candidly. But I'm glad he's with us. He's with us because he knows what's at stake. And the same is true with Tulsi Gabbard. Don't forget, she ran for president as a left-leaning Democrat just four years ago. She took down Kamala Harris in that debate. And the reason she did was because she articulated that, you know, Vice President Harris has used the justice system to her advantage over the course of many years, whether she was the attorney general, the U.S. Senate, or now the Vice President. So we're still seeing it. So it's amazing when you look at the coalition that President Trump and the team has put together. And what we're seeing and hearing very specifically is women between the ages of 25 and 40 years old, who really didn't like the way Donald Trump talked or some of the tweets that he's put out, are with the team because of the RFK and Tulsi Gabbard endorsements. And that's a huge demographic for us to go after and to make sure that they're with us so that we can be successful in four weeks. Definitely leaving no stone unturned, Corey, which is kind of where I want to get to next. You know, Americans have almost gotten a preview. Unfortunately, due to a lot of Biden-Harris administration policy failures throughout the course of the last four years, we can go back as far as the Afghanistan withdrawal. There's obviously what happened in East Palestine, Ohio a few years ago. And, you know, fact of the matter is someone who's been in politics will, you know, probably agree with us here. Leaders lead. Doing something matters. And when you saw what happened with the Hurricane Helene and how it decimated a great portion of the United States and the American Southeast a few weeks ago, we have Hurricane Milton now bearing down on the state of Florida. And listen, in the wake of Hurricane Helene, of course, Americans were looking for answers. They were looking for leadership. And it was Donald Trump, who beat both Joe Biden and Kamala Harris down. You know, to the American Southeast. And not only came looking to provide relief, but provide comfort and optically show Americans that, you know, leadership still exists in this country, even if Donald Trump isn't back in the White House yet. And, you know, talking about how important it is to remind Americans just what it looks like when you have a strong leader who's going to be there in a time of need. What was it like going through that experience with President Trump and then watching the candidate Kamala Harris stay out on the West Coast, continue to do fundraising, maybe even possibly record a podcast before even really getting into the whole disaster relief episode and incident and seeing how even the Vice President of the United States kind of took her time to make sure that, you know, it was safe to go down there and things of that nature when Donald Trump had already been to two different states before Joe Biden or Kamala Harris even decided to show up. Well, it's a difference about talking about being a leader and being a leader, right? Vice President Harris talks about leadership. Donald Trump is the leader. Donald Trump has been to Georgia. He spent to North Carolina. I was with him last week when we spent time with Governor Brian Kemp and the Emergency Operations Center get a briefing of what has actually transpired in the state of Georgia. I was with him when we toured North Carolina and saw some of the devastation. He brought supplies down. He gave people hope. They said we have no communications. He got on the phone and he contacted Elon Musk and said, bring Starlink here immediately. And what we've seen is the audio from the Georgia State Police saying, if it wasn't for Starlink, we'd have no communications with each other because we've got so many communication issues because of the hurricane. Listen, Brian Kemp told us that in the history of the worst storms in Georgia, 1600 telephone poles have been broken. In this storm, 8,000 telephone poles have been broken. Had to replace 8,000 poles, which means those people in western North Carolina and Georgia and Augusta and the areas that we toured are decimated. They have no electricity. They have barely any running water. They've got no food right now. They are destitute of they're looking for help. And what did Joe Biden do? He stayed on the beach and when asked about it, he says, I have a phone and I made two hours worth of phone calls. And then the vice president shows up and said, we're going to give you $750 because we've given more money to the people of Lebanon this week, meaning the country of Lebanon, then we have the people in southeast America. And so, listen, it's a tale of leadership. It's Donald Trump once again demonstrating his leadership and the others talking about it. And that's going to be clearly evident in four weeks from tonight on election night when the American people send down Trump back to the White House. Yeah, I think it's a critical component that continues to swing the poles, whether it be the national one, which Donald Trump is definitely gaining traction. And then the ones in battleground states like Pennsylvania, where we've seen a huge surge there over the course of the last week. You know, Corey, outside of the border, which, believe it or not, we've been able to point out, just like President Trump does, you could talk about just about any issue that's affecting Americans. And he could bring it back to the wide open border policies, the Biden-Harris administration, but the economy and inflation is definitely on the mind of every Americans. Now, when Donald Trump has pointed out, in extent, what his economic platform looks like, whether you're talking about the resurgence of manufacturing industries here in the United States, the auto worker industry, agriculture and energy, those are all things that are critical components to making life affordable again for a lot of Americans. Even having gone through the weekend and seeing the two podcasts and the CBS softball question interview that Kamala Harris has done, and she still can't clearly define a way that she would be able to make life more affordable for Americans. How important is it for you guys in the last month now heading up to November 5th to continue to hammer home that narrative? Listen, the Democrats are telling you exactly what you want to hear, that they can fix everything, but they've had the opportunity to do it. But we also understand what life was like for under President Trump and during his first administration, he's looking to do that, even in a greater context than the second one coming up here in January of next year. Yeah, the old statement of is the economy, stupid rings very true today, right? It's people who can't put food on their table, they can't put gas in their car, where I live in New Hampshire, home heating oil is something that you have to take into consideration of propane to heat your homes. It's more expensive than ever. We have seen because of the policies of Biden, Harris, people have less money in their pockets, the government has grown and Donald Trump's philosophy is very simple. Smaller government, lower taxes, less regulation. By doing that, you get to decide how to spend your money. So what Donald Trump has said is put me back in the White House, give me the opportunity to do what I did in the four years I was there, which is a rising tide lifts all boats, more people had economic opportunity than ever before. And you couple that with the issue of safety and security for your family, where clearly Vice President Harris has failed on the border. She's now saying that she's in favor of a border wall before she's been against it. She's now saying she's in favor of no tax on tips before she was against it. She's now telling us she's in favor of the right of the Second Amendment to own a weapon before she wanted mandatory confiscation. Look, we know where Donald Trump has been on these key issues, whether it's the economy or it's the border wall, our chair ability to protect yourself at home. He's been very clear about it. And so, you know, when you look at Vice President Harris and government walls, they are the most radical and extreme two candidates that have ever been nominated by a major political party in history. And if they're given the opportunity to govern, they will destroy our country. Our world now is at war. They have an endless war mentality. They want to give billions, tens of billions, hundreds of billions in some cases of our tax dollars away to countries that don't serve our best interests. And then when you've got our greatest ally in the Middle East, Israel, not being supported by this country, it is a clear dichotomy of views between the two types of candidates. Donald Trump knows that you put America first. It seems that the Biden, Harris, walls administration wants to put everybody else first. No, it's the truth. You know, I don't even have to ask you about geopolitics because we've seen how they've kind of let the world catch on fire and just kind of watched it burn over the course. The last four years, not just funding forever wars and, you know, empowering terrorist nations like places like Iran, abandoning a lot of our strongest allies, geopolitically and historically like the nation of Israel and their response to October 7 and what happened there. Corey, last thing I want to touch with you on, very important as we're in the home stretch here, you know, I want you to speak directly to our listenership. We've come to the conclusion that it's going to take a lot more than just every person's individual vote on November 5th. There is still time, early registration is still going on, early voting is happening in a lot of states across the country and for people who want to get involved to get out there and be involved in poll watching, whether it's ballot chasing, whether it's making sure that they're bringing more than just themselves to the poll on Election Day. Talk to our listenership about the importance of the time to kind of hold on to your inhibitions is pass and it's time to get involved and just take one more big push to save this country. Well, this year, exactly right, and we don't want to leave this until Election Day. What we've seen in the past is Republicans have historically always done very well on Election Day, but leading up into the election. The Democrats have always had a wide margin of a recursion of votes going in because they vote early. So if your state allows it and you haven't already registered, please continue to register. If your state allows voting early, please do that, whether it's by mail or in person. Do not take the chance and wait until Election Day. There may be a snowstorm. There could be a power outage. You don't know what's happening. Let's make sure that we shrink that adventure that the Democrats have historically had of going out and having this big cushion. We've seen it in Pennsylvania in the past, Allegheny County, Philadelphia County, right? These are places where the Democrats have rung up the score. So in your states, if you can vote early, do that now. If it's by mail in person, go make sure that you're doing that. We see what's happening in the state of Florida. Tomorrow, a major hurricane is going to be hitting. Do not take the chance of waiting until Election Day. So for us, if you want to go to Trump47.com, that's where you can volunteer. You can become a poll watcher. You can be part of our Election Integrity program. We've got hundreds or thousands of people around this country looking at polling locations, making sure that if you've got an identification and that's a requirement that you produce that ID to vote. Only Americans get to vote in these US elections, not illegal aliens. So do your part. This election is critical four weeks from tonight. The election will, the voting will end. Let's hope the ballots are all counted. I have a feeling it's going to take a couple days to get this done. But when it's all said and done, Donald Trump's going to be our next President of the United States. We can't agree with you more. Listen, we've got Trump Force 47 live linked in the show description today. Corey, everybody wants to check out you on social media. Where can they find you? Look, you can go to X, which is Elon's platform. It's C. Lewandowski underscore. You know, that's the best place that you see that or on true social, same thing, right? Those are two places I post the most to. So either X or true social, not real, find us. This is a senior advisor for the Trump campaign. Mr. Corey Lewandowski, thanks for joining us on the show today. Sir, good luck the rest of the way and please stay safe out there. Have a great day. There have obviously been a number of crises that the country has been facing over the past several days with the hurricane, with court strength, with the situation in the Middle East. Can you talk about how your Vice President, who is running for the presidency, has worked on these crises and what role she has played over the past several days? Well, she's, I'm in constant contact with her. She's aware we're saying it from the same song sheet. She helped pass all the laws that are being employed now. She was a major player in everything we've done, including passage of legislation which we were told we could never pass. And so she's been, and her staff is interlocked with mine in terms of all the things we're doing. All right, jumping back into the news portion of the show here on this big Tuesday edition of the State for Breakfast podcast coming out of our first new segment where we covered Donald Trump's triumphant return to Butler, Pennsylvania over the weekend in addition to the interview we just concluded with Trump campaign senior staffer Cora Lewandowski for the first time. Great hit, Noah. I mean, the guy's dialed in. There was a reason they brought him back. There's also a reason that he's been, you know, kind of involved in all things Donald Trump speaking politically all the way back to 2014. And it looks like he's laser focused to make sure that Donald Trump is getting back into the White House starting January next year. What do you think? Yeah. Let's just, let's just hope and pray that we actually make it to where we need to be as a country because I'm very worried about what happens if we don't win this. Do I need to reach you Halloween? Because I will certainly do that. And that was Joe Biden scumbagging Kamala Harris last Friday. Listen, we were in the editing process. I was sending stuff over for no to take care of so we can upload it to, you know, the podcasting platforms and things of that nation. And I see Joe Biden. I didn't know if it was file footage because he looked. Well, not dead. So I turned the volume back on the TV and he's, I guess, person bombed the White House presser last Friday kind of had slapped green gene Pierre out of the way and just took over. Oh, you know that was so not planned. Oh, it certainly looked like by everybody in the room connected to the administration like it was not planned, especially for the nearly 20 minutes of questions that Joe Biden took after. And when he left kind of smirkingly and whisk themselves off the dough air for the weekend, everybody was like, okay, we don't have anything else. We're going to put a cap on it. Yeah, because normally they're kicking them out. They're not kicking or they're not letting him just walk out. Yeah. Okay, everybody. Thank you. All right, everybody. Okay, no questions. I mean, I guess he did 20 minutes or the questions or just kind of took the wind out of their sails. Sure. And, you know, I guess Joe Biden wants to leave a little bit on his legacy that everybody can remember like we're going to have a hard time with that. But you can tell there's definitely some animosity. I said the same thing and saw the same thing today already, you know, Kamal Harris is on the view. And while that episode is airing, Joe Biden goes and holds a press conference on hurricane preparedness for not Halloween, but now Milton, which is threatening pretty much the entirety of Florida. Starting off on the West Coast, I'm going to be trudging through the state there. Looks like it's Tampa Bay is right in the crosshairs. I still want Biden to break just completely break and be like, fuck this bitch. Yep. You might be getting there and CNN was a little confused about what exactly was going on with Joe Biden. I mean, you can't make the shit up. Let's hear it. You have a note, and I'm curious what you think about this. We were actually about to go live. Vice President Kamala Harris, who's speaking right now in Detroit, Michigan. And apparently she's talking about this port strike ending. She's trying to appeal to union workers. And yet you have the president of the United States come out clearly overshadowing her, answering significant questions. Is that a communications mistake? Is the left hand not talking to the right hand in this situation? That's a very good point. And if they were coordinated, as you assume they would be, this would not have happened. Hmm. Hmm. Doesn't sound like their staffs are too intertwined as Joe Biden made the gesture with all of his fingers. Yeah. At the White House press around Friday. It's just interesting to see. I don't know if it's a hero or a villain arc, but I'm here for it. I want to see Joe Biden absolutely lose his shit before November 5th. You just said Noah and just kind of go off the rails and tell everybody exactly how it kind of all went down. I know I suppose or I proposed that could possibly happen. I don't remember if it was a prediction that it was going to happen or I was just hoping for it. Yeah, really interesting. I'm doing pretty good at my prediction so far. So let's hope it was a prediction. I like it and I'll allow it. Donald Trump was also busy on Friday, not joining speaking engagements in an attempt to cut off vice presidential nominee JD Vance, but back in the Hurricane Helene affected state of Georgia. After being in North Carolina earlier in the day, it was the first public event, albeit in a time of crisis that Donald Trump and Georgia governor Brian Kemp would collaborate together. Here's the peach state's governor welcoming Donald Trump and thanking him for showing up and being there for the people of Georgia when others quite frankly just haven't let's hear it. It's an honor and I want to thank President Trump for coming back to our state again for the second time to view storm damage and keep a national focus on our state as we recover. I hope you'll welcome the 45th president of the United States, Donald Trump, Mr. President. My side hug and handshake were exchanged. And I just think, listen, optically, when you have some of those undecided voters or those who because of their long standing feud in, which seems to have subsided heading into the election this year. You know, is on record for them to get together in some context. I'm hoping at some point in the next four weeks that Donald Trump holds a major rally in Georgia. I'm sure he will, but that governor Kemp attends, and has more to say about our Republican nominee for president. I'm going to play some of Donald Trump's remarks right now as he delivered them in Georgia after being introduced by Brian Kemp. Let's hear it. Senator Max Burns, who's here and district attorney, Bobby Christine. And we want to thank you, but we want to thank the people that are working so hard. And we're here in Evans, Georgia to express our support, our love and our prayers and all of the communities, the suffering is not even believable. When you look and you see the kind of suffering that's going on right now, but one of the biggest, I guess, question marks is the fact that there's so many people missing. I've never seen anything where so many, the numbers are so large of those that are missing governor, right? So that's something that hopefully they'll be found and they'll be found very healthy, but it never looks great. It never looks great. Our hearts break for the more than 200 American families who have lost their lives already. Officially 200, and that number, unfortunately, is going to be going up. It's one of the deadliest storms in American history. More than 2 dozen Georgians have died, including a 27-year-old mother and her two precious babies who lived not very far from the, from McDuffie County and father. A lot of people knew these people. They were great as father and grandfather. I know that such sudden and tragic loss must be almost unbearable. Don't know how you can even take it. Love one's all over, all over your county, all over your state, and all over a lot of other states. You have Florida. Thank you, Virginia. You have South Carolina, Alabama. North Carolina may be hit the worst. North Carolina is so bad. I want to thank Elon Musk, by the way, for his quick action with Starlink. He supplied a lot of equipment to the governor, to Georgia, and to North Carolina in particular, and he acted very, very quickly. They needed communication. There was no communication. The polls are down. The wires are down. And he acted really, really quickly. In fact, I called him, and I was getting thank you notices already from North Carolina and Georgia, and I wasn't off the phone with him. I don't know what the hell he's, I guess he's got some kind of a, a little special deal going. He works, he works pretty fast. I'll tell you, but he's been great. And Larry Ellison made a very big contribution and a friend of the governors and minors right here. Steve Whitkoff, who also made a very big contribution. And we'll leave it at that. You know, a lot of thank yous going around for all hands on deck in the face of such tragedy. But again, I think the biggest talking point you take away is that Donald Trump and Brian Kemp did an event together down in Georgia late last week. Kind of went under the radar, but I think it's huge for this election cycle to not only see real leadership on the world stage and when Americans are hungering for it the most. And for Donald Trump to collaborate in that event with Georgia Governor Brian Kemp, I think it speaks volumes for the critical importance of this race. Well, Harris, on the other hand, was out on the campaign trail Friday, not in disaster zones, but in battleground states campaigning. No, I don't know if you heard. She had a little bit of a prompter error. Oh, I heard about this, but I didn't see it. Yeah, I'm a little behind today. Sorry. No, please welcome. And let's get you caught up as we change the way you consume your news here. Yeah, so she was at a speaking event and her teleprompter turned off. Someone stepped on the plug or maybe purposely pulled it out. But to say after hearing Trump rallies for years on this show that if the teleprompter went off, Donald Trump would probably enjoy it a lot more than if he had to keep going back to it is an understatement. And to hear in just like an under a minute clip of what happens when the teleprompter turns off at a Kamala Harris event. Oh, you know, I saw one of these things, though. I want to get kind of get your feeling on it. So there's a guy who goes around and he does like the, I don't know how you do it. You like see what cell phones are in certain areas when they're all like blob together. And it seems like, you know, Donald Trump, who has tens of thousands of people at his rallies are getting a lot of people who are individually coming for the first time when he's in those regions. What I'm saying is his rally goers aren't following him around the country. But for instance, at this event where the teleprompter went off for Kamala Harris, there was 4,000 plus people there and 3,900 of them had been at rallies from places in the Blue Wall State, the East Coast, all the way down to Georgia and all the way out West in places like Arizona and Nevada. So it might not just be busing these people in from Democrat strongholds. They might actually be flying these people around to show up at her rallies. Yeah, because there's no fucking way that they have a bunch of brick suits. No, or front row Joe's. They just don't. And even though there is a nice solid, girthy delegation of people who attend all the Trump rallies, when the rallies are at a very minimum and when the place is an intimate setting, 5 to 10,000. But in ones like we saw this weekend, over 100 up in Butler, Pennsylvania, over 50 in Juneau, Wisconsin, you just can't move that much of people around in those same way that Kamala Harris is with a group that's essentially under 5,000. So I'll continue to track that as well, bring it up when I see the post come across social media on the show. But here's Kamala Harris after her teleprompter malfunction. Let's check it out. Remember his number 32 today. We got 32 days until the election. I thought math was racist. This is where it goes out. So 32 days. 32 days. Okay, we got some business to do. We got some business to do. All right, 32 days. And we know. Oh, we will do it. Oh, and, and this is going to be a very tight race until the very end. This is going to be a very tight race until the very end. We are the underdog and we know we have some hard work ahead. It's awkward. Certainly is. How many days now? Not enough. It was like pick up pandering. I think she went like half traditional Southern African American and then kind of segue halfway through that to Barack Obama and didn't know where it meant in the middle. She looked mortified when she like looked down and then she quickly looked at the other side and then she looked off to her staff and then she's like, all right, 32 days. 32 days. 30 plus two days. It's 32 days. That's one month. Plus, well, maybe one day or two days depending on the month. It was bad. And so was she. So we saw a lot of what we see it just in general, the winds, the tides changing and going in favor of Donald Trump. CNN had a panel on the other day. Never Trump or Gordon Simon, who has been someone that's been a major advocate of threats and democracy, semicolon, January 6th, semicolon, police brutality, semicolon, people died for years. Believe it or not, it's changing face live on TV and they didn't know how to handle it. Listen to this clip. Why was it important for you to say no more Trump because of his January 6th conduct and do you stand by that? No, I don't stand by it and I'll tell you why. I've now lived four years under the Biden-Harris policies and I have to say that those policies are not only becoming an existential threat to our country's way of life, but to our allies as well. So when you, this is, I'll let you finish, you said it was a no for me after that. I did. And here we are right now and you're saying it's a yes for you. It is a yes for me. It is an absolute yes for me. That is how badly the Biden-Harris team have prosecuted their job. But the whole point you seem to be making was that January 6th and that kind of attack on democracy is bigger than any Biden system. But I am seeing so many attacks on democracy that eclipse January 6th. So I want to ask Sarah. Both of the people sitting on each side of him and he said that both looked at him real quick and then back at the host. They're like, is this where we cut to a commercial? They didn't know what to do. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris's America last policies are now in the eyes of a major Democrat and shit live more of an existential threat to democracy than the narrative they created about January 6th. I just thought it was mind-blowing to even see that. I watched it on TV and before I could even open up, I saw notifications from like Team Trump and they were already sharing it saying like, Oh my God, never Trump or flips live on TV. So I was able to save the clip. But then we get into the numbers and some of the ones we saw this weekend. There's a millstone when it comes to favorability and presidential rating and Kamala Harris and Joe Biden and their administration at this point just aren't meeting the benchmark. Let's check it out. I think that this sort of gets at a problem for Kamala Harris's campaign. Just 28% of Americans think the US is on the right track and I want you to put that in a perspective, right? When does the average when the incumbent party loses the election? Look at that. It's just 25%. That looks a heck of a lot like that 28%, right? That currently think the country is on the right track. When the White House Party wins, i.e. Kamala Harris's party, the Democrats, 42% on average think that the country is on the right track. This 25% looks a lot more like this 28%. It doesn't look anything like this 42%. This to me is a bad sign for Kamala Harris's campaign. The bottom line is it looks a lot more like a loser than it does like a winner when it comes to the country being on the right track. And we'll leave it at that. I don't think if they're at 28% right now, that's a lot of ground to make up in just four weeks to getting it over into the 40s. And I don't think there are too many Americans, especially with another natural disaster barreling down on this country, Israel opening up another front into their war against Tara and all the things that are happening in between. For Americans to feel 20% more optimistic or that the country is currently on the right path and they do now on November 5th. What do you think Noah? I mean, if people aren't feeling more optimistic now, then I think the momentum is not going to get wasted. No, but people still have to show up. It's not like we're doing fine. Let's just phone it in. No, you got to show up. I'm watching the news right now. 32 days. Oh, God. I got the big screen up in the studio here. JD Vance is on news nation and he's stomping in battleground Michigan. Donald Trump's getting set the stage and take it in battleground Milwaukee, Wisconsin. They are doing the work. And it's going to be interesting to see how this all plays out, but listen, we armchair quarterback big time after the 2020 presidential election. Sure, there were stones on turn. I don't think we're doing it this time. And they're showing America every single day that they're willing to do the work that an incumbent president might not have to do. Let's just say in a traditional election cycle, which 2020 was not with the pandemic.

In our interview incoming at the end of this segment with South Carolina Congressman Ralph Norman, you know, he's always got wonderful things to say about Joe Biden and Kamal Harris. And I'm sure he'll be bringing the fire and fury today here on the show. So I guess Tim Waltz drew the short straw and had to go sit down on Fox News this weekend with Shannon Bream to do a beepsclusive interview with her. And I could tell right off the bat why Kamal Harris wasn't sent to Fox News. Number one, because she couldn't handle it. But number two, she was going to ask Tim Waltz about all the lies that he's told over the course of the last decade plus regarding everything from his military service to signing along. To signing a law which could allow for termination of a newly born human and not just in the case of getting an abortion when he went to China and why and everything in between. Let's check it out. Republicans came out against it long before President Trump indicated he didn't like it either. Listen, before we go, because I wish that we had a full hour. I want to give you a chance because you called yourself a knucklehead this week to talk about some of your misstatements. You've modified your story or explained that you misspoke about things involving your military rank about carrying a weapon in war. Your 1995 DUI arrest using IVF to have your beautiful children, Gus and Hope, being in Hong Kong and China in the summer of 1989 during the Tiananmen events. A lot of people would say they couldn't get away with saying I'm just too passionate. My grammar is not right. I'm a knucklehead. What do you say to the American people who think I don't know that I can trust this guy with all those modifications to be the potential commander in chief of this country? Yeah, well, I think they heard me. They heard me the other night speaking passionately about gun violence and misspeaking. And I got to be honest with you, Shannon. I don't think people care whether I used IUI or IVF when we talk about this. What they understand is Donald Trump would resist those things. Look, I speak passionately. I had an entire career decades ago. You have a no defender self without saying Donald Trump. They know and I'm very proud of my 24 years in service and my record. I have never disparaged someone else in this, but I know that's not what Donald Trump does. They disparage everyone. They have personal attacks. I will own up when I misspeak. I will own up when I make a mistake. She should have asked to exchange challenge coins with him to see the one where he embellished his military service and pass him out when he became a house representative out of the state of Wisconsin. She would give him one more opportunity to give us some kind of answers on what's going on in the border. And it wasn't going to be like, oh, we drafted the Democrats collaborating with shitbag Republican senators like James Langford on the biggest, most comprehensive, more money, more agents, border security bill ever in the history. She wasn't going to let that slide either. Let's hear it. Vice President has made it clear that she has policies that make a difference. Her border policies are the most strongest, the fairest we've seen. But now, Governor, you know, a lot of people, including your own party, would not join that statement. There are millions of people who have come here over the last few years that, you know, they see this as an open court. Well, simply, we have a policy. Donald Trump sees it as a political. Look, James Langford in Oklahoma, the border patrol agents, the Wall Street Journal, the Chamber of Commerce, all said passed this legislation. You have to have Congress to authorize 1500 new border agents. You have to have Congress to authorize DOJ to speed adjudications on these asylum claims. Those are things that would actually work. Donald Trump told us for four years he would deal with this. He didn't build his wall 2%. And Mexico didn't pay for it. This is a real bill that has bipartisan support. It has the experts on board, and it starts to tackle these issues. And we don't have to resort to demonizing people. We don't have to resort to making up our crafting stories, as Senator Vance said he did. Those things were not happening in Springfield, but it doesn't mean that we can't pass a piece of legislation to strengthen our border. That's what Kamala Harris is talking about. She's talking about solving the problem. The piece of legislation does include the wall that you guys have been so, you've disparaged that. I mean, the vice president has as well, so I don't know if she really intends to move forward with that. But it was negotiated by three or four senators, and many Republicans came out against it long before President Trump indicated he didn't like it either. So what do you think about that? No answers. Word salads. It's all... Everybody on the left, that's their argument for everything. Well, yeah, that might be true, but Donald Trump's a racist. Donald Trump's a liar. Pathological liar. Donald Trump filling the blank. No, it's embarrassing. It certainly is. And, you know, it just had to give you guys a little bit of perspective into what was going on. Apparently the Walt Harris or Harris Walt's team, whichever way you wanted to find it, and depending on which candidate is going out to the, I guess, more hostile interview environment. Or they're doing a media blitz right now. Have you heard about this, Noah? No. Well, there's a lot of controversy because apparently Kamala Harris taped a porn podcast over the weekend, coming after her high-end fundraisers in Southern California and Las Vegas, and before she made her initial trip out to meet with FEMA advisors and surveyed the damage from Hurricane Helene. I did see part of that. Yeah. And, literally, you have someone who's running to be the president of the United States jumping on the "Who's Your Daddy" podcast for a very riveting interview. But turning down any interview requests or podcasts requests where people want to talk about substantive things. Yeah, 'cause they wanted to talk about women's reproductive freedom, or, you know, how I'm still trying to deal with it, find out what that actually means, 'cause I have no idea. Yeah. You know, and when you look at how it's viewed, pun intended, I guess, from the outside, as Kamala Harris did participate in the taped edition of the view today, she also sat down at some point over the last 48 hours, with deranged, out of touch, shock jock, Howard Stern, for an interview as well. And... It's quite a good soul life. Yeah, me too. Well, I mean, he did live in, like, a hyperbolic chamber during the COVID pandemic, like, literally in a bunker, and he said he didn't come out of his house for two years, two calendar years. And it's just weird to see how these mouth-breathing idiots are kind of navigating what they're calling their media blitz. Andrea Mitchell, who's no friend of Donald Trump, or the America First Movement, she actually hates both of them with every fiber of her being, sat down with the crew from Meet the Press, Meet the Fake Press this weekend. They had a roundtable. Everybody was hyping up how great of a job Kamala Harris is doing, even Jen Psaki, who hosts a show that bears her own name inside Jen Psaki's... Regina. And when it's segued over to Andrea Mitchell, this is what she had to say. Let's check it out. Andrea, I think they've got to double down on doing more interviews and serious interviews, because when I'm hearing from Democratic and Republican, business people, and a lot of men, and she's got such a big problem with men. I mean, there's an under-account of the Trump vote. I think that there's a such... It's also an understanding. ...an explanation in all of this, black and white men, big problem, but also the business world. They don't think she is serious. They don't think she's a heavyweight. And a lot of this is gender, but she's got to be more specific about her economic plan. A lot of this is gender. Yeah, Kamala Harris isn't going to win the presidential election this year having to do heavily with misogyny, believe it or not. Not because she's a vapid imbecile that has no policy. Well, we'll get into that useless for literally three and a half years. In our next show, because Donald Trump actually specifically talked about that point at his Wisconsin rally, which recently took place. But let's look at these big, crucial, long-form, pivotal interviews that people like Andrea Mitchell say that Kamala Harris needs to be doing. We're going to hear a little sampling from "The Who's Your Daddy" podcast and just exactly how word salad was served by Kamala Harris. Yeah, I don't got too much here. It's going to be word salad after word salad. And again, the host was completely unprepared. You know, this is someone who's come out and said, "Oh, yeah, we reached out to the Trump campaign, but we haven't heard back from them yet." Why would Donald Trump even lower himself to going on that kind of a shit show when he's already done, you know, Theo Vaughn and Aiden Ross and all of these other shows where it's such a big, broad, diverse group of listeners that he's hitting the largest swath possible and trying to bring in as many potential voters as he can? Well, the invite is by itself a way for them to attack him because they know he's not going to go on. I mean, maybe he should. It might be interesting, but they're going to say that while he went on all these other things, it's obviously his misogynist doesn't want to go on this woman's podcast. And she specifically said we'd like for him to come on and talk about women's reproductive freedom or whatever that means. And I think after Donald Trump gave her the rational explanation, he does it on the campaign trail. I said I was going to support and nominate the justices who were going to do the job at Roe v. Wade and Dobbs. They made the decision, not me. They sent it back to the states and now the states can vote in a more federal system, probably the way the framers and the founding fathers intended it to be. And then what would she have to say? Do you think you can, I mean, I watched some of the clips from the show. I've actually listened to about 20 minutes of an episode that didn't have Kamala Harris on it. They're literally talking about sexual intercourse the entire time and using some of the raunchiest language I've ever heard on a podcast. So yeah, they dumped it down for this one because essentially it was too low IQ retards talking to each other as we'll see after we check out the first clip. Let's get into it. I'm curious. Like you don't do too many long form interviews. What made you want to do Collar Daddy today? Well, I think you and your listeners have really got us to par with my IQ. Right. Which is one of the best ways to communicate with people is to be real. You know, and to talk about the things that people really care about. What I love about what you do is that your voice in your show is really about your listeners. And I think especially now is a moment in the country and in life where people really want to know they're seen and heard and that they're part of a community that they're not out there alone. And some really glad to be with you. Thank you. Not out there alone. They're having group sex. And it's just like I don't think I would like to see the download analytics for that episode of the podcast compared to other ones where they talk about like literally butt sex with no lube. And I'm not even joking or exaggerating. That's literally like the context of the show. Like I was watching a clip yesterday and it was like, you know, oh, have you heard about this new sexual position? You like make a girl lean up against the wall and then, you know, this, that and the other thing. I'm just like, what is this? And they're like, yeah, if you have a wiener, make sure you turn up the volume because we're about to get into it right now. And I'm just like, really, they talk about just completely disgusting stuff and stuff that's just completely out of context. But again, it's not a political podcast. Yeah, well, they're probably getting some more hits now just because of the exposure and people are like, well, the rest of the show seems interesting. That was boring, but maybe this other stuff might be fun. What do you mean by exposure? Oh, there you go. She also went and I'm talking about Kamal Harris, Fullhill or Clinton, embodying some of her 2016 talking points during the course of this podcast. Let's check it out. I understood that the words that I spoke and what I did with those words would be the difference between whether somebody was charged with a crime or went to prison, maybe prison for life. When I was Attorney General, I was talking about all the cases she didn't prosecute in this country. And I was acutely aware that the words I spoke could be the difference between whether a corporation was in business or out of business, that the words I spoke could move markets. The idea that someone is not only so careless and irresponsible and reckless, but out and out lies to create fear and division in our country and thinks he should be president of the United States standing behind the seal of the president of the United States using the microphone that comes with that. Oh, you don't bring your own microphone? Oh, boy. It's so it makes my eye. I get like an eye headache when I have to listen to her for extended amount of time, but we're in. We're about to cross the zero barrier. It's like we can't not play portions of her because you have to be able to. It's not like our listenership is listening to either side of the coin and thinking about who they're going to vote for, but you have to be well prepared to go out and speak to others who might not. And be able to inform them like when they say Kamala Harris, like I see so many roving reporters on the street. Tell me one thing you like about Kamala Harris. If they don't say it's because she's a woman of color, they say it's because of her policy. And then the next question is obviously, can you please name a couple over policies that you strongly support? And it's like, yeah, absolutely. It's all the stuff that she's going to do in her administration. Do you understand that she's currently the vice president of the United States now? Yeah, but she's talking about getting stuff done. The small businesses, where is she going to get the money? Is Congress going to approve these $50,000 small business startup loans as part of their annual budget with? And now nearly $3 trillion a year annual budget deficit. And the national debt cruising towards $38 trillion. Well, I'm not really a math wizard, but she said she's going to do it, so I'm sure she will. Did I mention that she was a woman of color? And then she's not Donald Trump. Yeah, did I mention she's not Donald Trump either? This is what we're combating right now. And there's very, very few of them left in the country like so many people know who they're voting for at this point. If they already haven't started voting already. And the people that know who they're voting and they are voting for Kamala Harris, despite knowing that she's an idiot, it's painful to watch them do the mental gymnastics. It hurts. People reposting this occupied Democrats and all this other nonsense. That is the most retarded information that people can be imbibing and it's rotting their brains. No, well, you said it before you even kind of opened it up. They're voting in spite. You could pretty much end it there because that's what they're doing. I don't really think anyone with a double digit IQ is voting for Kamala Harris because it's Kamala Harris. I mean, they could, I mean, it's like the joke that we talked about and Elon must say and like, she's so not important. People aren't trying to assassinate her. It's a horrible thing to say, but it's also an even more horrible truth to be correct in that assumption because they will just take any other empty suit puppet with a knife figuratively at their back and throw them into the spotlight and say you're the next retard to carry the line for the radical progressive left, either do it or we're done with you. And if you don't think we can be done with you, look at how great Joe Biden's presidency is ending. How's that for over 50 years of public service and someone who's known nothing but the inside and out of Washington DC over the entirety of his adult life? And that's just the way it is. Much is the way as we're not going to get anything taken away from the closing that Kamala Harris had on that show, but we are going to listen to it nonetheless. Let's check it out. But the bottom line is this, I believe in the promise of America. I have not been able to be the first in every position that I've had. Were it not for the promise of America? I believe in our country. I love our country. And I believe that leadership has to be about knowing our capacity and then investing in the people. Because lifting up each person that we do is about lifting up the whole. Madam Vice President, thank you so much. I thought she was back to the other podcast. Yeah. Listen, where's your top? Well, I thought we were going to say who's your daddy. And when she talks about investing in people, she's talking about the people of Beirut, Lebanon, who now are enjoying over a hundred million dollars in taxpayer funded assistance, because Israel is invading them because they're the home country of Hezbollah or the $750 a piece. If you're able to apply for it, and then even if more, you're able to get approved that they're offering as an initial payment in regards to relief for people who have lost everything here in the United States. It's literally the meme, like somehow my tax dollars and then also my tax dollars. Exactly. That's an excellent point you make. We're going to leave it at that as we're getting ready to jump in with South Carolina Congressman Ralph Norman, but before we do another check in, one of our partners. I think it's time we had a conversation about a good night's sleep. Pillow King of Minnesota, Mike Lindell, and the apparatus known as the MyPillow family has been cranking out savings down at MyPillow for over 20 years. And for the first time in 20 years, they've changed the longstanding MyPillow and now have the MyPillow version 2.0.

Alright, Johnny Snicks on the show today, this big Tuesday edition of the Stakes Breakfast Podcast. He's the congressman who represents South Carolina's 5th Congressional District. Always glad to catch up with Representative Ralph Norman. Welcome back to the show. Glad to be with you, Ron. Thank you. Always a pleasure, and we've got a bunch of stuff to talk about. Listen, you know, the American southeast right now is still hurting and reeling from the aftermath of Hurricane Helene. If it wasn't the storm itself, which caused extensive damage throughout the region, it was the storm surge, the amount of rain that was dumped on the area, the rural parts that were hit the hardest. And unfortunately, the rack of response from the federal government. Congressman, as someone who lives in one of the states that's affected, I know we were talking offline. Just before we jumped in today, we know North Carolina's been hitting a lot harder than South Carolina as well. I just kind of want to get your take on the response, the lack thereof, from the Biden-Harris administration, just how transparent they're being with the American people, not only on their preparedness level, but maybe even where the money's been going and why there's not enough left to maybe tackle the beginning of this hurricane season. Well, you know, the issue we have, regardless of where people live, when you have a hurricane of this magnitude, I mean, Ron, it took out not just trees, but whole roadways. People's foundations are in the river. You got children just trying to survive whose parents have, you know, been killed in a lot of different areas. So it's very serious. And you mentioned the money, the fact that 110 million in FEMA funds went to the emergency food and shelter program to assist migrants. 104.6 million went to New York City for asylum seekers, 20 million in FEMA funds went to build a migrant welcome center in San Diego, California. I mean, this should not happen in America. And then for Mayorkas and the President to fly down a week later, take up the airspace and to announce that FEMA is out of money. No, you don't do that. This is a lack of empathy, it's a lack of caring. He's put everybody in other parts of the world at the forefront and basically forgotten the Americans here at home. And, you know, for direct quote from Anthony Blinken, which he says, "The U.S. is at the forefront of humanitarian responses to the growing crisis in Lebanon." I mean, get this Lebanon announced 157 million in assistance, which is insane. So been very disappointed in it. Looks like we've got another storm coming our way that's going to hit Florida. And so we've got our challenges, but the good news that I'm hearing, particularly in the mountains of North Carolina that will hit the spirit of the American people of bonding together, doing things for the neighbors. Churches getting involved is front and center stage and his own display, which is what built this country. And that's a bright spot in an otherwise dark, dark place for America. Yeah, that's a great point that you make. And then, you know, asking how is your state doing? I mean, maybe not your congressional district. For example, we had Representative Tim Burchin on the show with us. His district wasn't affected, but there were parts of rural Tennessee that were, and he was heavily involved, you know, kind of coordinated with Anhyzer Bush to make sure they were getting water out there. And the aftermath of the storm. How South Carolina kind of picking up the pieces. And then, you know, you talked about, I wish you could just elaborate on a little bit more, you know, that essence of American greatness. The heartbeat of Appalachia, like we've heard over the course, you know, the way people really come together, where communities have been erased in like their physical form, meaning buildings and roads and things of that nature. The people who make up that community and make it great, what it is, have really come together to kind of pick each other up and be there for each other in a time of desperate need. I talked to a sheriff, the incoming sheriff for York County, which is in my district, and he's been working night and day since the storm hit two weeks ago. And he was saying the people are so grateful for whatever you do for them. Secondly, he says they're exceptional and not really taking an attitude that they're victim. In their minds, in his words, they said, well, you know, this is our state in life right now. We're going to overcome it. We're going to go to work. And all they want is a chance to live and a chance to put back something that they've lost, which in many cases is everything. So the things that are going on now from the people that are donating their time, whether it's flying a helicopter, putting fuel in a helicopter, gathering the goods up. A lot of the things that, again, made this country great are happening now. Now, one of the real challenges that we're sending the letter out to all the sheriff's department for law enforcement that has been coordinated through EMAC, which is a program that the federal government has. And particularly in North Carolina, where if you're an officer in another town and want to help, that's who you go through. And so what the timeline we're up against is the weather. The grill in the room is the weather that's going to hit the mountains. It's going to hit 40 degrees this week. And there's an emergency for food, shelter, but even more importantly than that, as it gets colder, blankets and coats and things like that. So that's what's taken front and center stage. And that's what, again, is so enlightening that people are coming together and providing it. And what a couple of sheriffs have said is that the fact that people are just willing to help, and they don't want any money for it. They just want to protect innocent lives that, through no fault of their own, has hit their area of the country, particularly in North Carolina. Sure. And as you had mentioned, Florida gets ready to hunker down for Hurricane Milton. We're going to have to see what it looks like after that. Sticking into the threat of the response congressman, you know, leaders lead, and optics is a lot for just Americans and people in general in the wake of some major crisis or incident like what's happened after Hurricane Helene. You know, it was pretty interesting to see how the response from the federal government was rolled out, but it was even more so to see Donald Trump beat both the president and the vice president to the region, to talk with the governor's law enforcement, former senators, current Congress people down there. And, you know, Franklin Graham and the job that him and his charitable organization have been doing over the course of the past couple weeks, and really showing the American people, I guess, what leadership looks like. You know, when you see the slow walk response from Joe Biden, he was aggravated the day after that Donald Trump had down there saying that, you know, he spent time on the phone talking to people over the weekend while he stayed up in Delaware. The following day, he said he doesn't know why Donald Trump wants to make situations like this worse, that he had been talking with governor Kemp down in Georgia comes to find out that Governor Kemp was really frustrated with the response only getting like, you know, maybe a dozen counties. Some of the need they needed when there's 99 counties in Georgia. And then you have Kamala Harris, you know, she took her time coming back from these high-end fundraisers and small intimate speaking engagements she was doing. She also recorded a podcast at some point between when Hurricane Helene hit and when she showed up in the disaster zone to see the leadership on display. This close to the election for the American people. I mean, I don't think the Democrats have played their hand pretty well, but they've definitely played their hand and showed the American people exactly what they're holding. What's happened is a full display of non leadership, and you can follow the money trail. Why are they spending? Why is he directing funds for migrants? Why is he, as they, as Mayorka said, depleted the FEMA funds? Where'd that money go? How did the American people, how were they supposed to find out? Did it take a crisis like this? You know, people losing lives for no money to be there yet. If you're illegal in this country, you can get American dollars, which in a lot of cases exceeded over $4,000, not counting the plane flights that they were escorted on, not counting the food that they've been housing that they've been provided at our cost. And you can only provide $750 for those who have lost everything. No, he's got a lot of explaining to do, but we were a lot of us in South Carolina when invited for the photo op in Greenville, Spartanburg. And when they called me, I said a photo op with a man that's done as much damage to this country that's going to be irreparable in a lot of areas. But the invasion that he has caused, no, I'm not interested in the photo op, nor should the President be. He took up airspace where helicopters couldn't land and Kamala Harris did the same thing when she came. Correct. Why aren't they part of the solution? They're part of the problem. And as the sheriff from Spartanburg said, they need to get either way and let those who really want to help help. That's a good point. And then, you know, we know you're not someone that's able to predict the future, but depending on what happens with Hurricane Milton this weekend, you've already seen the soil roll out. From the Biden Harris administration, do you think that some point Congress might have to reconvene up on the hill to talk about more disaster relief, even though you guys have allocated and appropriated so much money that's been redirected by Alejandro Mayorkas, probably at the direction of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. But, you know, just to be able to make sure the American people are taken care of. That'd be fine. We'd love to go back up to Washington if it means going to work. And I'm currently a co-sponsor. Congressman Mase has got a bill that aims to terminate the FEMA's shelter and service program, and then any un obligated balance be transferred for the disaster relief. So the first step is canceling any money that's going to any other country immediately and secondly, put a priority on those that need it and put the help and the things that are needed to have these people live at the forefront. And not play politics with it. And hopefully that will, at some point, sink in. It hasn't so far. Well, it's the truth. And, you know, I kind of want to segue here and switch gears into topics. Unfortunately, we're talking about tragedies all the same. You know, yesterday was the one-year anniversary of probably one of the largest terrorist attacks in the history of our planet when Hamas did their operation into Israel, where over 1,400 people were murdered. You know, when you talk about leadership in regards to current situations like the one in response to Hurricane Alene, there's not much of a difference in the one geopolitical that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have taken on the world stage. We've seen them armchair quarterback, the operation and the response from Israel through its entirety almost from the day after the tragedy happened. In addition, we've seen the Biden-Harris administration funnel money to places like Iran, areas of the region like the Gaza Strip. And now, as you'd mentioned at the top of the interview, even the places like Lebanon, you know, as Israel continues their response, it seems like they've kind of been left on an island by this administration, one of our longest standing, if not only ally in the region. And, you know, as you see this kind of unfold and in the wake of yesterday where we saw a lot of remembrance, what does it say for the current state of American geopolitics and how far as our footing really been pushed back globally since Joe Biden and Kamala Harris took office? Last three and a half years, the Biden administration has sold America out to foreign nations that don't like us. As an example, buying oil from OPEC instead of using the reserves that we have here, it's like we're aware of Venezuela was back in the 70s where the regime, and I call the Biden regime, has turned this back on America. They are funding Hamas. They are funding the enemies of Israel. Israel is our only democracy in the Middle East. And for them to not even show up when Benjamin Netanyahu addressed us in Congress, and for some of the Democrats to wave signs against Netanyahu, it just shows you where their, their allegiance is. And it's not to democracies. It's not to Israel who's been our longtime ally. It's to those who did the damage, you know, yesterday, a year ago, and killed countless number of innocent women and children. And we saw the film, the actual footage, and I wish every American could see the death that took place, the burning and looting of homes, killing of children. It's sad, but this administration has done so much damage to this country. And the only way we're going to end it, the only way we're going to straighten it out is putting Donald Trump back in office, which I hope and pray happens. And that's where I want to kind of segue to our last topic here. You know, speaking of things that are, you know, emotional and anniversaries we had, Donald Trump returned to Butler, Pennsylvania over the course of the weekend. It looked like damn near 100,000 people showed up in support. He was flanked by a large delegation of members of Congress and the Senate, a couple of governors from around the country came and joined him in addition to some of the pivotal political figures that are looking to join him possibly, and potentially in the next administration starting in January of next year, like Elon Musk. You know, when you see the way Donald Trump has responded since to the, at least the first assassination attempt, how hostile and volatile the rhetoric from the radical left continues to be vaulted in his direction throughout the course of this campaign. I mean, they waited like a day, or maybe a couple days after the first assassination attempt to start calling him a threat to democracy. So they kind of said, they've done a little bit of shifting. So when now they're asked about Donald Trump being a threat to democracy, they'll say, well, let's look at the facts. Let's go back to January 6, and then he give a whole bunch of untruths about what happened that day. You know, and it's one of those things. When you've seen Donald Trump possibly completing the greatest political comeback in the history of modern politics, if not in all the history of the United States, how do you feel, you know, America is responding to him down the stretch here. Congressman, it seems like he's starting to resonate and get a little bit of a lead in the national poll. You see him pulling away in some of the battlegrounds days. I mean, just for example, he's going to be less than 30 days before we go to the ballot box in California this weekend, holding a rally. Something you wouldn't typically see from a Republican candidate just kind of wanted to get your commentary on how this race is shown out. And how do you think it's going to finish, which is probably going to be close to a photo one? Well, I think what's going to happen is you're seeing the real Donald Trump. He's fearless. He's got a record to back up what he's saying now, and he has no fear to go into places that typically politicians don't go to. And the question's real simple for the American people in this election. Did you have more security? Did you feel better? Were you doing better the four years under Donald Trump? Or how have you felt the last three and a half years under Kamala Harris and Joe Biden? It's very simple. That's the main only question you need to ask. And I think most Americans on November 5th are going to answer that question. Now, the fact is even close is pretty startling, but hopefully the American people will go to the polls and will let their voice be heard because if this regime is allowed to continue, I free republic will be free no more. And it's we the people have got to take back over and we've lost it with the Biden Harris administration. And with the Harris Walks administration, it will be on steroids. The what's happened the last three last four years. No inspiring words, but words of caution also to people who are sitting on the fence, who are maybe undecided and those who don't think that they need to get involved physically. And that's by chasing ballots, getting other people out to the polls, making sure all of your family is registered and that they're getting out there. If not early by November 5th. Congressman, as always, this is a great catching up with you on the show. We've got your congressional website, live linked in the show description today. Anybody that wants to follow you or maybe check out on social media, where can they find you as well? RepRalphNorman.com Absolutely fantastic.
