Flights of the Illegals Frozen, Are Debates Important to the Harris Camp & Walz's COVID Snitch Lines Week In Review · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

• 0:01
  Speaker 1: Welcome. It is Verdict with Ted Cruz and the Weekend Review.
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: Ben Ferguson with you. And there were some major stories
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: this week that you may have missed that I want
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: to make sure you know all about that. The Center
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: and I discussed First up, Biden has all of a
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: sudden decided.
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: To freeze at flights for illegals.
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: Why now, Well, it's after there was an expose and
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: it's shocking what we found out, and we'll tell you
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: about that in just a moment. Also, Kamala Harris is
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: in hiding. Apparently she thinks the way to become the
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: president is do exactly what Joe Biden did. Not talk
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: to the media, not show up for anything that deals
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: with question and answers, and you know, just kind of
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: walk into the White House. Remember, no one's voted for
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: her so far, so will at work. We'll dive into that.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: And finally, the VP choice Waltz, Well, he's got some
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: real baggage, including turning citizens on one another during COVID
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: in Minnesota. We'll break that down for you as well.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: The week in Review and it starts right now. The
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: Biden administration has come out and they have freezed these controversial,
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: and I think it's a mild way of putting it.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: Migrant flight program after there were massive fraud revelations that
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: had been exposed Fox News. Bill Malugin did an amazing
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: job on this, and we should give him some serious credit.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: But this is another example of the fraud and abuse
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: and just not having any clue what they're doing with
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: a wide open border policy, whether it's migrants coming in
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: on planes or coming across the southern border and terraces
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: coming in with them, fetnel coming in with them, the
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: worst criminals in the world getting into this country, and
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: now we find out, oh wait, yet again, they have
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: no idea who's even on the flights they're allowing in.
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: Well, let me agree and disagree. I'm going to agree
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: number one, that Bill Mallusian has been incredibly He's been
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: the best reporter in the country highlighting the invasion in
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: our southern border. He's truly been a hero reporting on this.
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: I'm going to disagree though, when you said that Biden
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: Harris have no idea what they're doing. I think they
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: know exactly what they're doing. They are presiding over an
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: invasion of our country, and it's deliberate the eleven and
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: a half million illegal aliens that have come into this country.
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: Joe Biden and Kamala Harris want them to come in
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: and they are doing this for power now. This program,
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: and you and I have talked about this program multiple
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: times on this podcast, was a program where they weren't
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: simply taking people that were apprehended on the southern border
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: and letting them go, although they're doing that by the millions.
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: They were actually flying them from their home countries directly
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: into America. And this program was focused on four countries, Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua,
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: and Venezuela. And under this program, up to thirty thousand
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: nationals a month, Biden Harris were flying in from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua,
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: and Venezuela. And by the way, we focused on and
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: I've talked multiple times about, one of those instances involved
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: a Haitian national that flew in under this program from
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: Haiti to Boston. In Boston, they released this illegal immigrant.
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: He turned around and raped a fifteen year old girl
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: with severe mental disabilities. He was arrested for raping this
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: fifteen year old girl just a couple of weeks ago.
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: He was released from jail on bond. You know how
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: much as bond was five hundred dollars. A left wing
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: judge said, you rape a disabled girl, a teenager, five
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: hundred bucks should cover it. It is outrageous. And understand,
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: this wasn't someone who had crossed the border and escape.
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: This is someone that Joe Biden Kamala Harris said, you know,
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: we need to fly this guy from Haiti to commit
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: these kind of crimes here. And by the way, another
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: of the countries included in this, as Venezuela, we have
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: talked about. I believe Maduro in Venezuela is very deliberately
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: systematically emptying his jails and sending criminals here, sending murderers,
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: sending rapists, sending child molesters, doing it deliberately, and it's
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: reminiscent of what Castro did with the Mario boat lift,
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: where Castro emptied the jails in Cuba and put criminals
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: and emptied the insane asylums and put people with serious
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: mental illness on boats and send them into America and
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: we saw crime wave result from that. I think Maduro
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: in Venezuela is doing the same thing. And so suddenly
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: this is actually, in many ways the same stories. The
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: one we talked about a minute ago, the reversal of
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: the nine to eleven plea deal, which is we are
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: less than one hundred days from an election. I think
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: the Biden administration realized, Hey, wait, people really don't like
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: chaos at our southern border and eleven and a half billion
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: people invading this country, and they really dislike that we're
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: facilitating it actively. And so again on Friday the news broke,
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: the Department of Homeland Security confirmed that quote out of
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: an abundance of caution, temporarily pause the issuing of advanced
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: Travel authorizations for the program, which allows up to thirty
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: thousand nationals from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela to travel
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: into the US each month and enter legally under the
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: administration's use of parole if they meet certain conditions. A
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: Congressional source had told Fox News Digital that the pause
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: came in mid July after an internal report unearthed large
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: amounts of fraud no kidding in applications for those sponsoring
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: the applicants. DHS said the pause was occurring as it
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: reviewed sponsor applications. The focus is on issues with supporter
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: filings and not with the filings from beneficiaries of the
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: program themselves. Quote, DHS has review mechanisms in place to
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: detect and prevent for fraud abuse in our immigration processes.
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: DHS takes any abuse of its processes very seriously, a
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: DHS spokesperson said. Where frauds identified, us ICE will investigate
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: and litigate applicable cases in Immigration court to make criminal
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: referrals the Department of Justice. Quote, out of an abundance
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: of caution, DHS has temporarily paused the issuance of advanced
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: travel authorizations for new beneficiaries while it undertakes a review
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: of supporter applications. DHS will restart application processing as quickly
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: as possible with appropriate safeguards. Now, I want to emphasize
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: one word into what I just read, temporarily as in
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: temporarily paused. I'm going to make a prediction, if God forbid,
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: Kamala Harris wins temporarily will end in mid November. They'll
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: probably wait a week after election day, and then suddenly
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: the program is back on, and we've got another four
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: years of an invasion, and we'll see an eleven and
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: a half million people become twenty million or thirty million.
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: Those are the stakes of this election. If these guys win,
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: this temporary pause disappears and they return to the business
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: of invading our nation center.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: I want to go to strategy for just a second here.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: It's very weird to see how quickly we're moving on
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: on different issues. You know, Donald Trump gets shot at
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: Oh it's old news. A few weeks later, Joe Biden's
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: incompetent and resigned, you know, it says I'm not going
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: to run for reelection. Then we have no no, no
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: fight at a prime or at a convention. Bam Kamala
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: Harris gets it out of you know, and it's all
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: settled and done. You move on for that. Then they
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: start saying that jd. Vance is weird because he's a
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: family guy. But you know, hanging out with drag queens
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: and story hour at the White House and men with
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: fake breasts, you know, flashing people at the White House.
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: That's normal apparently and not weird.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: You got everything that's happening at the Olympics, and we
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: still have this really big issue, which is a wide
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: open southern border.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: We still have terrorists that are being caught.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: We talked about that, we have potential tarists that are
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: trying to get onto military basis and they're being let go.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: How do you keep this an election your issue if
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: you're Donald Trump against Kamala Harris specifically on this issue
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: and going, you guys like, not only have you created
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: the problem, you are the problem. The media tells us
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: she's out the borders are. We've already proven she was
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: absolutely named the borders are, and the media said it
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: quite a few times. Now they're trying to take that back.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: So how do you deal with this issue with the
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: American voter where it matters three months out?
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: You focus on substance, You focus on issues, You focus
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: on Kamala's horrible record, You focus on the disaster that
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: it's meant for American families. And you're right, the media
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: is working over time trying to erase the last four years,
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: the fact that Donald Trump there was an attempted assassination attempt.
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: We've seen big tech, We've seen the media try to
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: completely erase that, just just trying to write it away.
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: On the fact that Kamala Harris was the borders are,
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: they're trying to gaslight and say that's not the truth.
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: On the fact that Kamala Harris, for years has called
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: for banning fracking. They're trying to erase that and say
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: that's not the truth and an open border. Look, look
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: these two decisions, the nine to eleven plea deal and
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: the program flying in over three hundred thousand illegal immigrants
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: every year. They're trying to reverse that just moments before
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: the election because they really do think the voters are dumb,
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: that they're easily fooled. But I mean, let's break down
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: some of the details. So this temporary pause in this
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: program was driven by an internal report at the Department
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: of Homeland Security about fraud. And let me break down
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: some of the substance of it, because we're not talking
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: a little fraud, we're talking massive fraud. So the report
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: showed that one hundred thousand, nine hundred and forty eight
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: forms were filled out by a total of three two
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: hundred and eighteen serial sponsors. A serial sponsor is someone
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: whose number appears on twenty or more forms. So you
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: got about three thousand people that are bringing in more
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: than one hundred thousand illegal immigrants. Now here's something that
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: will really blow you away. It found that twenty four
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: of the one thousand most used numbers belonged to a
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: dead person. Meanwhile, one hundred physical addresses were used between
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: one hundred and twenty four and seven hundred and thirty
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: nine times on a total of over nineteen thousand forms.
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: Those addresses included storage udents units. One sponsor phone number
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: was submitted on over two thousand forms, and there were
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: two eight hundred and thirty nine forms with non existence
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: sponsor ZIP codes. Look, this is rampant fraud, and it
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: is rampant fraud designed to create, facilitate, and accelerate a
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: criminal invasion of the United States of America. And I'm
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: going to stipulate right now that of those serial sponsors,
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: those three two hundred and eighteen serial sponsors all are
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: left wing Democrats. I have no proof of that. I
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: just live in the planet Earth. I'm aware of the
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: people who want this country to be invaded, and they're
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: committing fraud. And to be clear, the Biden Harris administration
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: doesn't care. They are happy to do this except in
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: the hundred days before an election, and the hundred days
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: before an election they will pretend to give a damn.
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: But it is cynical to the point. And by the way,
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: have you heard Joe Biden say word about this.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: Not a word.
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: Have you heard Kamala Harris say word about this?
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: Nope?
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: How about even one Democrat senator, one Democrat house member.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: None of them. They're completely silent, like it's not happening, like.
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: That report is stunning, and they will not even acknowledge
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: it exists. They just say, oh, no, no, we're pausing,
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: not happen, No, no, never mind, never mind, we got
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: an election to happen. Never mind at all.
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: Now, if you want to hear the rest of this conversation,
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: you can go back and listen to the full podcast
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: from earlier this week. Now onto story number two.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: Senator, let me also ask you another question, and that's
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: going to be the debate. We there was a debate
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: that was offered up. Kamala Harris said no, that was
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: going to be on Fox. Now apparently they've agreed to
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: another debate on one of the major networks. And if
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: she's not doing interviews and you have to put out
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: press statements, you know that Vice President Harris pledges a
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: scheduled interview before the end of the month after speaking
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: with her team on Thursday. Quote, it's unclear if the
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: interview will take place in the last three weeks of
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: August or whether the interview scheduled interview scheduling will take
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: place before August ends, quote unquote. But Harris, as you
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: mentioned in the beginning of the show, has not given
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: one unscripted press conference since she joined the president to
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: race eighteen days ago.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: To use the you know.
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: Walt's favorite word, that's weird and may can you avoid
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: the press until Labor Day twenty five days from now
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: twenty four days for now a long time. Here's Ally
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: told Politico for their publication, basically, I think limiting expectations.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: And now you look at this, you go, Okay, she's
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: going into hiding. How important is the next president of debate?
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: Then well, look, Trump came out and challenged her to
• 13:23
  Speaker 4: three presidential debates. And that's a very normal thing to do.
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: If you look in history at modern times, there have
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: typically been three presidential debates and usually one vice presidential debate.
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: That's been the history for a long time. And so
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: what Trump challenged her to, he challenged her to it
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: on three different networks. That was a very reasonable challenge.
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: I don't think she'll accept. My prediction is we will
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: see one presidential debate between Trump and Kammala. I think
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: her team would love that to be zero, but I
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: think they will probably make the judgment that zero would
• 13:55
  Speaker 4: project so much weakness that it would be a problem.
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: I think the chances that they agree to three are
• 14:03
  Speaker 4: essentially zero because from their perspective, why would they Every
• 14:08
  Speaker 4: day they are getting tens of millions of dollars of
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: free press, and the press is just running a twenty
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: four hour infomercial for her, So why would she do
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: anything to take the Kamala Harris infomercial off TV? The
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: press wants her to win. I think they will feel like,
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: we got to do one and by the way, and
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: we'll talk about this as the debate approaches. Look, that
• 14:33
  Speaker 4: debate has has risks for both of them. It has
• 14:35
  Speaker 4: risks for her because when she's unscripted, when she's ad libbing,
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: she can say all sorts of zany things that are
• 14:44
  Speaker 4: not terribly impressive. But it also has risks for trumpet
• 14:47
  Speaker 4: In particular, it has risks for Trump of being too aggressive,
• 14:51
  Speaker 4: too mean, and that has a potential to backfire. Kamala
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: is not Joe Biden, and so you know, from from
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: the Democrat perspective, I think they would hope that Trump
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: would come across as a bully or mean, because I
• 15:08
  Speaker 4: think they would. They would be calculating that doing so
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: might well push swing voters to Kamala. And so where
• 15:15
  Speaker 4: I think we'll end up is one debate September or October.
• 15:21
  Speaker 4: I think Trump rightly will keep putting on.
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: ABC News has apparently yeah, well, ABC News has now
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: apparently confirmed that both Trump and Harris quote have agreed
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: to basic terms for their debate on September the tenth.
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: So you're saying you believe there's a very good chance
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: that may be the only debate they do.
• 15:41
  Speaker 4: And remember that was the previously agreed debate that that
• 15:44
  Speaker 4: Joe Biden had also agreed to that Trump initially was
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: pushing back and not wanting and saying how about we
• 15:50
  Speaker 4: do Fox instead, and Kamala didn't want to do that.
• 15:54
  Speaker 4: It's they both now said, Okay, we'll do ABC on
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: September tenth. I'd love to see three debates. I think
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: it would be better for democracy. I think would be
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: it would be better for the American people, for the voters.
• 16:05
  Speaker 4: But I think Kamala, Harris and the Democrats do not
• 16:08
  Speaker 4: give a flying flip about democracy. Don't give a flying
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: flip about the voters. They every single day that she
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: does nothing, the media is campaigning for twenty four hours
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: a day, and I think their entire strategy is don't
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: get in the way of the media campaign unfolding right now.
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: So let me ask you this.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: And I look to Vegas every once a while because
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: it just I find it fascinating to see where they
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: and how they rank the race. You look at this
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: media propaganda that is historic on its scale for Harris
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: and all of the money that's flown in to boost
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: her and the ads that that are running.
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: Everyone I think has seen them.
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: She is now only at even odds with Trump in Vegas,
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: this after they've thrown everything that they have at Harris
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: to try to save the Democra Credit Party.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: And the question is, is the Kama honeymoon over?
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: If it is, If it's straight up forty ninety nine
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: in Vegas right now, is this now going to turn
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: into somewhat of an actual and real campaign.
• 17:16
  Speaker 4: Look, I hope. So I still believe Trump is gonna
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: win in November, and that we're going to see a
• 17:22
  Speaker 4: very good election where Republicans win the White House, we
• 17:25
  Speaker 4: win the Senate and we win the House. That's what
• 17:27
  Speaker 4: I think is likely to happen. That being said, the
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: chances of that today are significantly less than they were
• 17:34
  Speaker 4: three weeks ago. Three weeks ago in Milwaukee and you
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: and I did several podcasts from Milwaukee Live from the
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: convention in Milwaukee, the feeling was exuberant. In fact, you
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: and I talked about on this podcast. At the convention,
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: I was worried, I said at the time, I think
• 17:51
  Speaker 4: Republicans are over confident, that that we feel like the
• 17:54
  Speaker 4: race is over. We're celebrating. You and I had conversations
• 17:58
  Speaker 4: with people there that that that that were already handing
• 18:01
  Speaker 4: out cabinet positions, And my view is the time for
• 18:04
  Speaker 4: celebration is after the election, not before now. The reason
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: there was such a sense of exuberance is because Joe
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: Biden was the opponent, and I think if Joe Biden
• 18:15
  Speaker 4: stayed the opponent, Trump would have won easily. And the
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: problem was Democrats came to that same conclusion, Oh crap,
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: we're going to lose if Biden's the president is the nominee.
• 18:24
  Speaker 4: So they yanked him out of the way and pushed
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: him aside and replaced him with Kamalin. Right now, three
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: weeks later, we've seen three weeks of relentless propaganda for Tamala,
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: and we have also seen so Trump, for much of
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: his presidential time and much of his campaigning time, has
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: been able to dominate the free media narrative, has been
• 18:47
  Speaker 4: able to drive the stories. The past three weeks, the
• 18:50
  Speaker 4: free media narrative has all been about Kamala. And I
• 18:53
  Speaker 4: think one challenge that I'm sure the Trump campaign has
• 18:56
  Speaker 4: focused on right now is how they drive the free
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: media narrative in a way that highlights how radical and
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: extreme Comma is. And I would say, I think it's
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: a mistake for them to get into personal issues, issues
• 19:13
  Speaker 4: that are unrelated to Kamala's extreme record, and in particular
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: how it impacts people listen. Every election, I think is decided.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: To give us an example of what you mean by that,
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: give us an example because you said not reading in
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: the personal stuff.
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: Every election, I think is decided by the same basic question,
• 19:35
  Speaker 4: are you better off today than you were four years ago?
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: I think the Trump campaign ought to be discussing every
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: single day how ordinary people's lives are worse, how young
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: people coming out of school look, newly married, looking to
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: buy their first home are discovering that if you try
• 19:54
  Speaker 4: to buy a home with a seven or eight percent
• 19:56
  Speaker 4: mortgage instead of a two and a half percent mortgage,
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: you get half the house you used to be able
• 20:02
  Speaker 4: to get four years ago. Uh. Talking about seniors who
• 20:06
  Speaker 4: are discovering every one of their bills has gone up, uh,
• 20:10
  Speaker 4: and yet their income is not keeping pace. Talking about
• 20:15
  Speaker 4: families who are scared because illegal immigrants are being released
• 20:19
  Speaker 4: every single day, as I said on the stage in Milwaukee,
• 20:23
  Speaker 4: every damn day, an American is murdered, a woman is raped,
• 20:27
  Speaker 4: a child is assaulted and brutalized by illegal immigrants released
• 20:32
  Speaker 4: by Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and and I think the
• 20:36
  Speaker 4: Trump campaign should focus on how to drive the narrative
• 20:40
  Speaker 4: every day, both their they're paid messaging, but also as
• 20:43
  Speaker 4: much as possible the earned media on how people's lives
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: are worse now because of the failures. Kamala Harris should
• 20:53
  Speaker 4: not be able to run on the hypothetical of what
• 20:58
  Speaker 4: a Harris presidency would look like, because you know what
• 21:01
  Speaker 4: she and Joe have been in office for four years.
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: We know exactly what it looks like, and it's a
• 21:06
  Speaker 4: train wreck and the Trump campaign I think needs to
• 21:09
  Speaker 4: make that, make that the topic of discussion as much
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: as possible every day between now an election day.
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: Cener Her final question I have for you, and that is,
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: how do you prep if you're Donald Trump right now
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: for attacking a candidate that's in hiding. I mean, it's
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: different because the last time it was, the attack was
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: pretty clear. The line was he's incapacitated, he can't do
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: the job, referring to Biden. You can't use that line
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: against Harris. So what do you do to undermine her
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: in hiding? Do you say, Hey, I thought she was
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: able bodied, I guess she's not, and try to bait
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: her that way.
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: What's the strategy?
• 21:50
  Speaker 4: Look, I think you focus on substance. Her policies are extreme,
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: her record is extreme. Her record is a failure. Her
• 21:58
  Speaker 4: record is hurting you. Life is worse off. You know,
• 22:04
  Speaker 4: if you look at across the country, virtually no one
• 22:10
  Speaker 4: answers the question, yes, are you better off today than
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: you were four years ago, unless you happen to be
• 22:16
  Speaker 4: a big tech billionaire or a Mexican drug lord. And
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: by the way, if you're a Mexican drug lord, you
• 22:22
  Speaker 4: ought to vote for Kabala and Waltz, they're clearly the
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: candidate for you. If you're a big tech billionaire, they're
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: your candidate too. But but, but if you're a steel worker,
• 22:32
  Speaker 4: if if you're a suburban mom, if you're a young person,
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: if you're somebody, if you're a senior, if you're somebody
• 22:39
  Speaker 4: who loves America, if you're somebody who wants your kids safe,
• 22:42
  Speaker 4: if you're someone who wants your grandkids safe, if you're
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: someone who wants to see peace and prosperity in the
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: world and not h not chaos, then you ought that,
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: then the choice is a lot clearer. And that's what
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: I think the Trump campaign needs to be looking every
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: day to make that real and personal and why it
• 23:05
  Speaker 4: matters to you.
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: As before, if you want to hear the rest of
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: this conversation on this topic, you can go back and
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: down the podcast from earlier this week to hear the
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: entire thing. I want to get back to the big
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: story number three of the week. You may have missed Center.
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: Snitch lines are used in communist countries socialist countries where
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: you and doctrinate kids to snitch on their parents, right,
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: and you tell them the kids, hey, come to school
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: and hey tell the authorities, Hey tell us the teachers
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: what your parents are doing that are going against the government.
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: And yet this is what the governor was doing in Minnesota,
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: actually using tax dollars to do exactly the same damn thing.
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: Look, we will lock you up. Write out your parents,
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: write out your kids, writ out your family members. The
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: government is in charge. Anyone who violates my lockdown order,
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: report on them to the government. But by the way,
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: it's not surprising that Tim Waltz loves him some communist China.
• 24:02
  Speaker 5: Listen to this clip and focusing on and I lived
• 24:05
  Speaker 5: in China, and as I said, I've been there about
• 24:07
  Speaker 5: thirty times. But if someone tells you and they're an
• 24:10
  Speaker 5: expert on China, they're probably not telling you the truth
• 24:12
  Speaker 5: because it's complex country, but it's critically important for us.
• 24:14
  Speaker 5: I don't fall into the category that China necessarily needs
• 24:18
  Speaker 5: to be an adversarial relationship. I totally disagree.
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: I mean, this is a guy and I go back
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: to what I said earlier. These clips need to be
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: shared everywhere. So if you are an avid listener verdict,
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: share this podcast on social media because the media is
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: not going to play any of this for you.
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: So to be clear, he's not even saying that China
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: is not our mortal enemy when we must destroy them.
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: He's saying, I don't fall into the category that China
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: needs to be an adversarial relationship. I totally disagree. This
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: is someone who's made a life embracing communist China. And
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: by the way, I want Chitty to hear a really
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: weird quote. A weird quote. So Tim Waltz grew up
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: in a town called West Point, Nebraska in the seventies
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: and eighties, and here's a quote that he said. He said,
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: Waltz has always been fascinated by communist China. He remembers
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: from his childhood pictures of Mao say tongue hung in
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: public places and carried in parades. Now, in West Point, Nebraska,
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: that was a town of about three three hundred people.
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: Who the hell was hanging pictures of Mao zay dung
• 25:40
  Speaker 3: and carrying them in parades. I mean, this is a
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: guy who literally says, like, there are pro communist parades
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: in Nebraska. Like what circles was this guy running on?
• 25:51
  Speaker 3: And you're right, the media is not going to report
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: on that. That's from a newspaper from an article where
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: they thought that was praising him. But all right, let's
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: go through a little bit more of his record. How
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: about open borders. So we know that he signed into
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: law a law that allows Minnesoesota records residents to get
• 26:13
  Speaker 3: driver's license even if they're illegal aliens. Play that clip.
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: It's done.
• 26:19
  Speaker 4: A packed room at the Saint Paul Armory erupted after
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: the governor's signature made driver's license for.
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: All the law of the land.
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: I mean, he was so excited about this. It is law.
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: Come to Minnesota, illegal immigrants, and I'll give you everything
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: you want, including that driver's license. And then he said
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: that every other state should do it as well.
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: Well, and listen, it's not like Tim Waltz, like Kamala
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: Harris is rooting for eleven and a half million illegal
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: immigrants to invade this country. Well no, actually it is.
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: Listen to what he said about whether he wants illegal
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: aliens to climb the border wall and invade this country illegally.
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: Play that clip, and.
• 26:59
  Speaker 5: I think seeing a plan that's out there talking about
• 27:03
  Speaker 5: it with folks knowing that he's not going to do anything.
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: He talks about this wall.
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: I always say, let me know how hi it is.
• 27:09
  Speaker 5: If it's twenty five feet, then I'll invest in the
• 27:11
  Speaker 5: thirty foot ladder factory. That's not how you stop this.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: This is a guy that has done a one point
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: eighty from everything you would do if you believed in
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: securing our borders. He is a wide open sanctuary state.
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: He is in favor of adding lattery factories to help
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: illegals get across the wall if they built the wall.
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: He is a guy that says, come into our state,
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: wherever you're coming from in the world, we are a
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: sanctuary state, and we're proud to say that that is
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: what we are.
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: And this goes back to what you said.
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: He is a radical that is there clearly to help
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: Kamwa Harris enforce her radical agenda ideas well.
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: And understand he's not saying as like a financial matter
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: that he wants to invest in ladder companies, is not
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: advising that as a stock picking tip. What he's saying
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: is he's rooting for the people climbing the wall. He's
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: rooting for the people crossing into this country. And he's
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: not admitting this, but he's rooting for the human traffickers.
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: He's rooting effectively for the drug cartels. And that's exactly
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: where Kamala Harris is. Kamala Harris was our borders are.
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: She was in charge of the border during this invasion
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: of eleven and a half million people. And Tim Waltz
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: is there. He will be the cheerleader. The two of
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: them will will wave their pom poms, cheering on the invasion,
• 28:34
  Speaker 3: going Yay ladders, Yay tunnels, get into this country illegally.
• 28:37
  Speaker 3: Why because we think you're going to vote for Democrats.
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: And his record is he supports open borders. So does
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: Kamala Harris. That's why she picked him, Senator.
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: I mean, we really could see it in the just
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: moments and hours after the announcement from Kamala Harris of
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: the VP pick being Waltz, that the media had one
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: quick your plan and strategy, and that was describe the
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: pick Tim Waltz as a moderate.
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: He is nothing but a radical.
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: Listen. That is absolutely right. This is someone who is
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: an extremist. His record, he's embraced socialism, he's embraced open borders,
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: he's embraced COVID lockdown. He was responsible for shutting schools
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: down in Minnesota and hurting low income kids, hurting African
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: American kids, hurting Hispanic kids in his state. He's been
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: a radical on gender extremism, including castrating and sterilizing little
• 29:34
  Speaker 3: boys and little girls. He mandates that tampons be provided
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: a ten year old boys. He loves him. Some communist
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: Chinese lived in Chinese says we shouldn't be an adversary
• 29:46
  Speaker 3: with them. He's advocated latter factories to climb over border walls.
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: He has been extreme, but the media says, oh, he's
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: a midwestern guy. He was a school teacher. By the way, Bowman,
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: the squad member in New York who has just beaten
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: a Democrat primary because he was so radical and so
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: anti Israel and such socialists, he was a school teacher.
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: I gotta say, there are a bunch of radicals that
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: are school teachers. So just saying that is not a
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: moderating middle of the road factor necessarily, but part of
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: what the media is trying to say as well. He's
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: a Midwesterner who appeals to country folks. He appeals to
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: rural voters. Now, to be clear, in Minnesota he did
• 30:28
  Speaker 3: even worse with rural voters than his predecessors. But I
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: want you to listen to what Tim Waltz thinks about
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: rural America.
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: He goes maps red.
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: And blue, and there's all that red across there. Democrats
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: go into depression over it.
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: It's mostly rocks and cows that are in that red area.
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: Rocks and cows. Center that three thinks.
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: That's what he thinks about rural America. This is the
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: governor of Minneapolis, this is the governor of left wing
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: pro China radicals. And Kamala Harris is the vice president
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: of San Francisco. And that's who they're running to represent.
• 31:04
  Speaker 3: And if you'd happen not to be a San Francisco leftist,
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: if you happen not to be a Minneapolis leftist, if
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: you happen not to love communist China, not to love
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: open borders, not to love BLM rioters burning your city
• 31:16
  Speaker 3: to the ground, well they're not running to represent you.
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: As always, thank you for listening to Verdict with Center,
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: Ted Cruz, Ben Ferguson with you don't forget to deal
• 31:25
