My name is Charlie Kirk. I run the largest pro-American student organization in the country, fighting for the future of our republic. My call is to fight evil and to proclaim truth. If the most important thing for you is just feeling good, you're going to end up miserable. But if the most important thing is doing good, you will end up purposeful. College is a scam everybody. You've got to stop sending your kids to college. You should get married as young as possible and have as many kids as possible. Go start a turning point USA college chapter. Go start a turning point USA high school chapter. Go find out how your church can get involved. Sign up and become an activist. I gave my life to the Lord in fifth grade. Most important decision I ever made in my life. And I encourage you to do the same. Here I am. Lord, use me. Buckle up everybody. Here we go. Go.

That is noblegoldinvestments.com. All right. Welcome everybody. It is September 30th, 2026. I'm back in Phoenix. Great one day. Yeah, grateful to be back. I'm going to be off for the rest of the week. Actually, but it's going to be holding it down. But don't worry. He's got some great stuff and store for you. But I'm here today. And we got so much news to cover. My goodness. And I wasn't planning on leading with this. And then as news has started accumulating, I had to get in it into it more and more. We're going to have Julie Kelly on a just a second. Oh, we do have Julie. All right. All right. Let's honor her time. Nevermind. We're going to get into this story though. And at least in the second segment of this near terror attack in, I guess they landed in Saudi Arabia. Crazy story. We're going to get into that in just a second because it's blown up.
But right now we have Julie Kelly on the show. The author of the declassified sub stack. You've got to check her out. It's been too long, Julie. Welcome. I know. Hey, Andrew. Thanks for having me on. All right. So we, I'm honored to have you. We covered this story with Senator Eric Schmidt yesterday. Next thing I know, my phone is blown up. All these reporters are like, hox, hock, Iowa, Atlanta. So we got to go into it because you and I spoke on the phone and, and it's frustrating because what there was some actual bombshells here of tying Jack Smith to Fanny Willis and this whole DOJ conspiracy. Let's call it that. But there was a moment where you know, it basically, it got confused, right? And so I asked Senator Schmidt about it. And it turns out that there was a mistake. They thought it was the hocks in Atlanta, but it was actually the, the hawk eyes, Iowa, Caitlin Clark, all this stuff. Explain what happened there, but then explain the larger story that, that might be at risk of getting lost in the midst of that, that little faux pas.
So it looks like Eric Schmidt, Senator Schmidt and his staff were trying to tie Jack Smith to Fanny Willis and Nathan Wade and the timing sort of of when that and Rico indictment went down in I believe it was 2024. Yes, the indictment went down before that. But anyway, trying to tie Jack Smith to Fanny Willis and Nathan Wade by saying that Jack Smith attended Atlanta, hocks basketball game in early 2024. Jack Smith looked very puzzled, was here to be trying to jog his memory. And then he said, no, it was an Iowa Hawkeye basketball game. I believe it was an Iowa. And so that was a little bit of eggs on their face. But unfortunately, Andrew, it did give the media, which is always so quick to protect and defend Jack Smith and his team of thugs gave them a diversion that they needed to yes,
and then they were able to get away from all the latest developments. And so let's, let's, let's, let's, let's probe at that. So it's the diversion. It's unfortunate. It's, unfortunately, a, a real screw up from their team. And that's bummer. But what are they diverting from? What should our focus beyond in this story? Before we move on, I do want to say andro and I discussed this. We have plenty of evidence of the Biden White House and Biden DOJ being in Cahoots with Fanny Willis and Nathan Wade to concoct that Rico case against the president and a few dozen other Trump officials. So it wasn't totally far fetched for Senator Schmidt to try to confront Jack Smith to see if the special counsel's office also had been in Cahoots, which of course the same DOJ officials and White House officials who were involved in the initial investigations that Jack Smith took over. We know again, we're working with with Fulton County on that prosecution. So it wasn't totally outlandish, but unfortunately didn't go over as planned.
But yes, what I did post in andro, I thought that you reposted this is Senator Ted Cruz confronting Jack Smith about the penis and the investigation into organizations, including TP USA. And I thought his answer there was stunning and confirmed that the special counsel's office under Arctic frost. So this was the third criminal investigation into the president related to January 6. It was going to ensnare hundreds or didn't dare hundreds of groups, Maga aligned groups, conservative groups and individuals influencers, etc. He was creating a massive case under Arctic frost to indict dozens, if not hundreds of individuals and groups for the so-called fake electors scheme related to January 6. Well, Julie, criminalization of free speech and political activity.
You know, people often think about that clip where Charlie gets emotional when Trump is declared the winner. And yeah, it was because he left it out all in the field. Yes, it was because we all worked our tails off to get President Trump elected. But there was a sub there and a deeper storyline because Charlie was under the impression that it was very likely that there was criminal prosecutions coming down. The pike should the Democrats remain in office. And I want people to fully understand that not because he had done anything long, but merely because he knew he was prominent. He was effective. And as we got a grim confirmation of last year, widely hated. Yes. And when the left hates you, they will find their excuse. Yeah. And this is what has become really clear to me, Julie. Okay, because listen, we were live on a show. The team had clipped a clip and Eric Schmidt had been booked out on the show about a week out. Now, I will own the fact that I was live on a show didn't have a chance to see this clip.
And I'm going to do it because I'm a man of my word. And we want to have integrity here. This was actually what we ended up finding out. So 13 will play it and I'll explain. So 13. If this is the correct basketball game, I recall going to a university of Maryland basketball game where Caitlin Clark was playing right around that time. It was Maryland playing Iowa. I think February of 2024. Could it then be that university of Iowa's the Hawkeyes? Could that be it? And maybe before we show this kind of thing? I know, but if he was at an Iowa game, is that correct? It was because Caitlin Clark was coming to Maryland to play. Uh-huh. I know, but that might be the confusion over the names of the team, but perhaps you should have looked at it more carefully. The Colbert James, you had the team's wrong, sir. So it was the Hawks versus the Hawkeyes. So here's what I learned because it's listen, I think when this happened, we were actually on the air.
It's not like I was actually able to fact trick or just happened right before we got on air. So I didn't even see that exchange live or anything. I didn't see Clobuchar's counter. So we played it because Eric Schmidt was on the show and it was a moment. Now, here's what I would learn though, Julie, that he is this protected golden cow for them. The media response to this and it was almost a concerted coordinated media operation to sort of put egg on the face of a senator, Schmidt for getting Hawks and Hawkeyes mixed up. But you, I just want to underscore this guy's protected by a whole apparatus, a whole construct on the left and their media friends. And it was an easy mix up and you're saying the underlying ties between the DOJ and Fannie Welles and Nathan Wade are a legitimate pursuit as far as a line of questioning. Correct. It is legitimate because we do know. I mean Matthew Kalangelo, I believe he was number three at the Biden DOJ left that top of a post to go down to Fulton County and help Fannie Welles put together that Rico conspiracy case.
For January 6th in the 2020 election. There's correspondence. I believe Nathan Wade was busted for being at the Biden White House prior to that indictment being handed down. So it wasn't completely outlandish as I said for Senator Schmidt. You can front Jack Smith who has on me. It seems common sense. Correct. So, but unfortunately, yes, it did give the media cover for not reporting the fact that Jack Smith collected the text messages of 44 Republican lawmakers in Washington completely ignoring feature debate clause protections that the legislative branch enjoys to prevent the exact thing that Jack Smith did. Also, as he collected the phone records of 87 White House officials, Trump White House officials also ensnared news organizations and journalists at the same time. I believe you could help me remember this. But it was I believe it was around there was this late night phone call and Fannie Willis drops this indictment.
It was like 11 p.m. and I'm trying to remember the details, but it was it basically showed that there seem to be some coordination between the DOJ and the Atlanta. Let's call law fair persecution prosecution of President Trump. Do you remember these events? I'm trying to remember the details here and I'm I know we had Newt Gingrich on at the time. Try and remember maybe it was 2023. It was that late night indictment. Do you remember this Julie? I'm so immersed in Jack Smith and I'm working on piece for my sub stack of people want to check it out later. D classified with Julie Kelly that I'm not able to switch my brain. Yeah, it's totally fine. Over to that. But yeah, I mean there was collaboration on and also I believe with the January 6 select committee too. So they were all working in sync. So again, not outlandish, but I definitely don't want that gap to overshadow what we learned about from Jack Smith yesterday.
And that is also again TPUSA and other groups being under investigation and his admitting yesterday during his testimony that he was looking at criminal charges for what he called blocking the peaceful transfer of power on January 6. There's no law that prohibits people from blocking something from blocking the certification of the presidential election that day. There's no such law furthermore the transfer power doesn't even happen that day. It happens on January 20, which people kept saying about January 6. But he admitted and then he suggested they were looking at ad buys made by these organizations perhaps even TPUSA on Fox news as part of what he called his false statements investigation. So again, here is Jack Smith. Let's take a step back who the Florida judge judge, and lean cannon in July of 2024 determined that he had been appointed unconstitutional that he has appointment violated the appointments clause of the Constitution that Mayor Garland appointed him on constitutionally.
So that case was dismissed and he was disqualified by her. Nonetheless, he continued his work in Florida and certainly in Washington. This man had no authority to do what he did, but he was on a mission given by Attorney General Mayor Garland Joe Biden, his White House deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco to destroy the entire Maga movement. And that was going to happen under Arctic frost and I shared Charmice relief on election night because I was worried if Kamala Harris one what her DOJ was going to do to me and my family for my coverage of the president's cases and of course January 6. So there was a huge sense of relief and now we know that we were justified in being released that the president won to prevent exactly what Jack Smith would have continued after 2024. And this is what we're staring at. You know, if the midterms go a certain way, the investigations, the law fair is about to kick off like nobody's ever seen.
If you think it was bad, President Trump just wait. Okay, guys, like this, the reason this Jack Smith matter, this story matters is not only to write the wrongs of the past, and we need justice. But it's also a precursor of what's to come. It is absolutely a warning to us. And again, I feel like we spend half our show here, Julie just saying, hey, I don't care. I care, but just because you're upset about Iran or diesel prices like guys, these challenges that we're facing are existential. Okay, this is Republic ending stuff. If we let them get power, I'm going to let Chuck Grassley say it in his own words. Here we go. So 11. You obtained at least 4,782 donor checks. Many of those checks were five to $10. The list includes checks from constituents in every state of every single member of this committee, both Republicans and Democrats. It included 42 checks from Iowans who dared to donate money to Republicans. No matter what you say, there is no legitimate basis for what you did, especially since your staff killed an investigation into the Clinton campaign.
Now the Justice Department of FBI will forever possess thousands of people's address, phone number, bank and bank account number, bank routing number and a copy of their true signature. Every member of this committee ought to be outraged for what happened to their constituents. Every member of this committee ought to be outraged. I mean, what the heck is he doing? He's investigating turning point. He's investigating. It looks like Molly Hemingway and Sean Davis at the Federalist. He's investigating five to $10 donation checks. Like what on earth could possibly justify Jack Smith spreading this dragnet so wide, Julie? He was taking marching orders, obviously. I mean, he's a bad dude. He's corrupt to the core. He is a failed prosecutor. I mean, I think he's the only prosecutor to be overturned. Oh, by the Supreme Court would have been 90 if Justice Scalia was still alive at the time. And that was in the prosecution of Virginia Governor Bob McDonald and his life overturning that conviction led by Jack Smith, the guys of dirt bad loser.
So of course, he was going to be chosen as special counsel because he was going to do whatever he could to take down Trump everyone around him, including family members and the entire Maga movement. So yes, what was the basis of that making false statements to what each other in text messages? This is the end around and this is something I'm writing about for my substats. The end around that Jack Smith did was so dirty. Instead of issuing subpoenas for the phone records of all those White House officials individually, which they knew would have executive privilege protection. He also added the president to that. So he got all of the president phone messages as well, which violates all sorts of constitutional executive privilege protections for the sitting president, which he was the sitting president at the time that they collected those phone records from. He blew, he went to the National Archives, which was also working hand in glove with the DOJ and bite White House to bring the documents case against the president.
So all of those records from the archives, rather than the typical subpoena court litigation fight, et cetera, because he wanted them quickly. That's how we swept up the text between reporters and White House officials and of course White House officials and lawmakers. So that's about as dirty as you can get. And that's what a low life Jack Smith and the people around him and the judges who allowed this, by the way, are in what the country was going through right now. He was the attorney general or deputy attorney general, which is what he was on track to be. Let's just be very clear about that. Yeah, and it just strikes me, Julie, because again, I was bombarded by press messages and inquiry saying, do you stand by your comments about the hawks and the hawks? I was like, no, not if they're not true. But do I stand by my statement that Jack Smith is a dirt bag? Yes. Yes, I stand by that. It's a dirty cop. Yes, Julie Kelly. That's exactly what Julie Kelly check out her sub sack. Is it publishing today, Julie? Yes, it'll be up in an hour. Awesome. Everybody check that out. Julie Kelly. Thanks for making time for us.

All right, Rich, I'll let you in for this, but I have to kind of close the loop on something in the last second we're talking about Jack Smith, Rich bears, big data poll, the people's pundit, the man the myth, the legend, my dear friend, but Rich, we're talking about how really what's getting obscured in some of this Eric Schmidt, you know, Hawkeyes, or this Hawke storyline is the fact that there was coordination between the DOJ and some of these other prosecutions. There was coordination certainly and I remembered this clip. Yeah, from Newt Gingrich when he came on the show with Charlie, I'm going to play it because I remembered it, but I couldn't remember the details. Sock 19 that I am told this is hearsay, but I am told by a reliable source that Friday evening, somebody from Washington called the district attorney Atlanta and said, you have to indict on Monday. We have to cover up all of the mistakes we just made with was and she said apparently. My jurors are coming back to Tuesday and they said you didn't hear me. You have to indict on Monday and she said, well, not going to get here before noon.
They said that doesn't matter. She said this means it's going to be eight or nine or 10 o'clock at night. It said it doesn't matter. We need the news. So we made that phone call. We don't know and I'm telling you upfront, this is hearsay, but it's from a person who has remarkably. I totally believe it though because that would explain why they leaked and they messed up on the clerk document. Why she was exhausted and why they had the 11 p.m. press conference, Mr. Speaker. Yeah, I remember that it was because remember the wife was related to Hunter Biden and it created this whole brew ha ha there terrible PR nightmare. I don't even think you need that particular aspect of it. Just everything. All these people know each other. They all have so many informal connections. You practically wouldn't even need to get an order. A thing we've seen with the left over and over. Is there very good at getting on the same page without needing to get marching orders. They all marinate in the same stuff. That's the value of having a hive mind. Yeah, they are hive mind. Any thoughts in this rich for getting to your polling. You got a new one out of Ohio. I want to get to.
Yeah, I mean, I just want to say real quick that I did immediately think of that clip. I remembered that clip and then I remembered what happened Monday. We had Mike Davis on and Daniel Stredon because I'm not a lawyer guys, you know, but it looks weird. It looked weird. It just looked improper and it just didn't look like. It was done correctly and we had them on a try because being lawyers to try to explain how. How is this right? Is this how you would. Is this normal process? And I think at this point, we just all saw. Comfor it is getting lost in the back and forth over teams and whether he had the right team or. But the line of the question was actually there. The line of the question was completely legitimate because there was coordination. There is a hive mind on the left and they were trying to get Trump. By triangulating different prosecutions and different parts and I think it's so important that we don't forget the lessons of the past, especially when we're looking at a midterm because these people have disqualified themselves so many times. If you give them power, they are going to burn down the republic. They are going to do. All right. Okay, so you're mad about a run. I'm mad about a run. Okay, I'm mad about gas prices. I'm mad about a lot of stuff.
I doesn't mean I'm going to give them power. Doesn't mean they've earned anything. They haven't done anything to earn my vote. Rich, you got a new poll out here. I saw big data poll everywhere yesterday and it's in the day before actually. So let's go to what do we got here guys? 140. All right, you've got the vague Rama Swami at 47.9 to Amy act in 46.8. Tell us what you're seeing on the ground. And by the way, it looks like you've got shared brown up, which is disappointing. All right, can we pull this off in Ohio? Can we do both? Can we do both the governorship and the Senate? Look, let it not be ever said that I heard to anybody because we, of course, in the sea of act in plus tens, we drop a Rama Swami, right, plus basically one. But I've been here before. It's want to say this real quick because I do think Republicans can pull this off and Iowa and stay tuned. We have main coming. There's some other surprising races. Minnesota is coming. Look, this is about turnout and it goes to what you were just saying.
Shorod Brown runs around in Masquerade. It's a popular skies, but he was in office under under Trump the first time around. Did he do anything for you? Did it was your working class champion for you? Did he back Donald Trump against all of their overreaches? Did he once say, guys, sorry, this is too much. The people of my state voted for Trump overwhelmingly. They like his policies. Did he once say that? No, he didn't. So I'm just going to leave it there. I just want to say this too that our poll does not look like a lot of the other polls that are out, but I've been here before. There is a very long history of the two pollsters who released in the same day that we did. Suffolk and Marist, a very long history of big data poll versus those two in the state of Ohio. And if you go back to 2018, if you go back to 2022, which are midterms, I'm avoiding presidential for a reason, you will see this over and over again. We had Shorod Brown winning reelection in 2018 and we had governor DeWine winning in 2018. And everybody had Richard Cordray up in that race, including those two polls.
So I'm not saying it dismissed the polls. I'm saying the race is a lot closer than people think it is and Republicans, their main problem right now is that that undecided vote looks to be a lot more than the other. And vote looks to me like it doesn't want to vote. You have to get them to vote because if you can, they'll overtake them. And Rama Swamy, he actually needs them to vote to hold his lead. It's a little bit of the reverse, but that's because his vote share is higher. We're seeing this everywhere. Andrew, that is the story in Iowa, which is coming soon. You'll see the same thing Ashley Henson can do it. By the way, even Zach Lane can do it. If Republicans get their voters to vote, the problem pollsters are seeing right now is that we can't just tell you we don't believe the voters and they have, you know, they got the vote history. I don't believe them and make them vote and put them in the likely voter model. We can't do that. It's unethical. They're telling us they're not going to vote repeatedly. Especially if they're low prop voters, which Charlie was just who Charlie was just talking about in that clip in the break, you know, this idea that we were going to have trouble, especially in the Midwest getting these voters to come out when Trump is not on the ballot.
He was just saying that this is where we are. I mean, exactly. I mean, this is that you're completely right. So what we're seeing is we're seeing like a blue shift. I saw you were tweeting about this in Pennsylvania. We're seeing a blue shift relative to 2024, but relative to 2022, we might have actually see a red shift compared to that last midterm. Like in states like Pennsylvania. But this issue of diesel is really crushing the state of Iowa, right? And what voters do not understand is this has not, this has something to do with it, but not everything to do with Iran. This is actually relative to Ukraine and Russia. Like voters are not connecting the dots that some of these things are not necessarily in the president's control or in the admins control more broadly. So I think listen, my heart goes out to our farmers. I love our farmers so much. I love our ranchers and our farmers. And I know they love the president, but they're frustrated and they feel it every time they fill up that tractor every time they fill up that truck. So I get it, but some of this stuff is, I mean, you can't you can't flip a switch and turn it around on a dime at least, right? Go ahead, Rich.
Yeah, I would just say that this is where the messaging is so critical because they blame Iran. They do. And even if you were to bring to them and say, look, a lot of this has to do with the Russo-Ukrainian war, they'll throw back, but he promised that in that war in 48 hours. I mean, that's what you're going to I'm just telling you don't kill them. Don't shoot the messenger. Everybody else has been doing for a year and a half while I've done my very best to try to get you know, you guys to avoid this situation. We're in now. You know, the president. I just got to say this. The president, we need to see some empathy. I don't know what else. There's no there's no soft way to deliver this. The president has always been the primary messenger of the new Republican party, the old one that he came to was a failed party that couldn't win a national election to save its life. He resurrected it and everyone looks to Donald Trump. So Ashley Henson can run all over the state all she wants. You know, I mean, John Eusted can run all over the state. They need to hear it from the boss. They do, Andrew. I will listen yesterday, Rich, I said they need to have an emergency session of Congress pass the federal gas tax relief. That's what they should be doing. You know, you know how much better that you're doing. I think of I think of all them back.
Do you have any idea how much more effective campaigning that would be then sending your members back into state to go run their their campaign. They could pass that. They could have also they could have passed the say back. We literally did got we got strung along all year that it was maybe going to happen about to happen needed to work out these things. And I think you and I suspected from the beginning. We've been around the block on this. They're going to delay delay delay. Up to close to the election. Let's go. Yep. And shock. I think. I think the delivery. Blake, I actually think Paxton would be in a much better position if they pass the say back because Paxton. I'm seeing some of Paxton's vote in the libertarian candidate. Guys, they're not going to vote at 5% for the libertarian candidate. Maybe two, maybe three, but they're just telling pollsters. I'm voting for the libertarian because they're mad and in truth, the next round of polls next month. If they if Republicans haven't won them yet, then they're going to go out of the likely voter model. I'm just trying to explain the technicals of how polling works. We know they're not voting libertarian. They're they're uncertain voters. We're throwing their vote away right now. And Paxton needs to win them back. I truly believe that if they would have passed that say back guys.
He'd be in a better position. Here's here's internals. By the way, I've been hearing this for weeks that Paxton's up in the internals. Me too. 48, 45 over James Taurico. You're you're going to see public polls right now that have Taurico up five that have Taurico up four. I've been hearing very steadily four weeks that that can Paxton's up on on Taurico. But here's the point. It doesn't matter. Go go vote. Make a plan to vote. Make a plan to get three five 10 of your friends to vote. Or it doesn't matter. Doesn't matter what the polls say. Rich, is this what you're seeing in the Senate race hotly watched hotly contested Senate race in Texas? We have it within the margin of error. We do still have Taurico ahead a little bit, but it's in the margin of error. And I just got to tell you guys. I mean it's it's it's moved like five points in three weeks. It's fat. And it's the money. I mean there's no doubt. Tellerico at a huge money advantage over the summer. I don't know why Republicans consistently do this. But they hold their wad until we get towards after Labor Day. And that's because of the dinosaurs who run the Republicans consulting class. And they still think we live in a world without the Internet or something.
This is the age of information. People have stories. They tell themselves on elections months in advance. It's been proven over and over again. Stop waiting till Labor Day. But a lot of money came in. It's an expensive media market. Thank God for Elon Musk. And it definitely is working. And we did have Abbott now ahead. I mean for a second there. Abbott was down a point. And I was like basically having an eye attack. I can't believe it. You know listen Abbott's not my favorite, but my goodness like it's a government. He's gonna win. He's gonna win. Yeah, but like we are. I don't want to get people complacent. I'm just saying he's up like seven five to seven now routinely. So yeah, that's what I would think. All right, let's turn our attention to this Harvard Harris. I call it the reverse and celtzer celtzer. So Harvard Harris comes out of the latest 2026 generic congressional ballot is a dead heat says Harvard Harris. They did this poll 926 and 928 where they have registered voters. Republicans at 50% Democrats at 50%. It's a tie dead heat 50.50 now Democrats take a two point edge with likely voters. I texted this to you and your response back was come on man. It sounds like. I was hoping Richard's gonna be like you know we're seeing similar numbers.
Tell us why this is why why you don't put much stock in this. Mark Harvard at 2024 called bro they want their generic ballot back and I'm talking to Mark Pan of course. Look I am. Mark Pan is a great respected pollster, but this is just absurdity. I will note that the recalled vote has been dropped from the report. And that's because they were in like Trump 13 land to get these numbers. And by 13. I mean the national popular vote in 2024. That's now been dropped from the report with good reason. Guys. In no universe in the more you know if you're Marvel fans out there in no version of the multiverse are Republicans at 47% of the independent vote. And this is not helpful. And so and I literally have to stain for people who use this stuff as copium because it's just not reality. Not only are Republicans down badly with independence. They have to gin turn out so much that they offset that. Democrats, you never saw Democrats on the air of Obama at least. Later they were delusional, but they would take reality and they would confront it. Obama saw that in 2012 that they were getting crushed, crushed with independence. And he said you know what David Plough facts abroad. They said the only way we can offset this is if we gin up our base so much that we can make up for it. And that is what they did particularly with black women.
The only way Republicans are going to do it are by ginning up their base especially with younger men that don't vote in midterms. You've got to get these guys out more so you don't have to do it like a 24 election. But you have to do it beyond what we've seen in a midterm before that has always and again I'm going to bring up Charlie's own segment that you were just playing. He understood this a few people have and we just seemingly forgot it. This was the core mission, the core goal. By the way, Tyler knows this you know run chase the vote. He understands this. You can't just do it with the boomer vote anymore guys. The boomer vote that is Republican isn't even a majority of boomers anymore. So you know get it with the times stop reading copium. I love Mark, but that's ludicrous and everybody's smirks and I'm in a chat with probably 16 15 16 pollsters left wing right wing. We're just laughing our butts off at this stuff at this point. Fair enough. All right. So ludicrous, but here come on. Play like your five points down all the time anyway. Always so stop cognizant. Stop looking at the tea leaves and thinking, oh, I can we're you know we're going to be okay all this stuff. Rich, let's talk about this independent vote, right? Because one of the things we've seen is the independence. We lost ground with them. There's no doubt, but independence, even if they're registered independent oftentimes they're basically right leaning their conservative independence or their liberal independence. What is the messaging right now down the
stretch? What are we at 34 35 days left? We should have about what is the message down the stretch message for independence right now? Is it is it? Yeah. Is it the border? Is it immigration? Is it how loony the left is on it? I mean it that's different depending on where where you are. That's why I said before to Blake, you know the the Savak that would have helped in a state like Texas for sure, but the right leaning independent in the lower prop prop right leaning independent is the core of Republicans problem right now. They're an economic message and again this is why bring up the empathy thing. I mean we can't just say we did you know great job and that's it. And if you don't see it suck it up shut up like that's I cannot believe what I'm reading online from some people right now. I mean especially people who have a relatively cushy life compared to these people they don't and maybe you know you might not have remembered if you came up, you know on the other side of the track, you may not remember what it's like to be them. Their life stinks right now and your message needs to sound more like Barack Obama's message in 2020. I know we didn't do everything you wanted us to do, but turning back the clock is not the right way. I feel your damn pain and we're going to move forward, you know and that's it and we understand and we're going to do better. We're going to work hard every day to do better, which is.
They're in a credibility gap right now, which means there's a gap between what they say and what voters believe and they have to narrow this gap and again one of the there's nothing on the campaign trail that will be more effective than getting your butts back to Washington DC and actually trying to pass some legislation that makes people's lives better and going back to that last segment. You could spend a ton of money to fake town halls run all over the place in shake hands you have door knockers that can do that at home. You should get back and do your job because this this electorate thinks that the Republican Congress was lazy that they were distracted by foreign affairs that they completely forgot about everything they ran on. There's no way on a campaign trail you can undo that get back to Congress. I don't care if it's a show optics politics is all about optics get back into Washington DC entirely. He could back into DC and pretend you're passing legislation make your democratic opponents vote against it because they will this isn't hard.
I mean again, that's what gets at me. It's just it isn't it is not hard and also the psych hot. Well, this is with me the most is the psychology of Republicans because they are clearly terrified of doing things and like that's why we never got the say that that's why we never got a million other things that's why they don't bother to do one off votes on things that would be good PR fodder. I remember fighting for ages years ago. Hey guys, have a vote that says you're not allowed to bring in someone under 18 as a child bride. Just do it as a separate vote because Democrats will vote against it. Maybe you'll pass it and then we don't have child brides coming to the US anymore or maybe you won't pass it and you can attack Democrats for that. Stuff like that is always out there and they're just they don't like the idea of passing things. They fear backlash endlessly more than they fear not delivering. Can you imagine Mike Johnson calls Congress back to pass a moratorium through the end of the year on the gas tax saving you 60 cents a gallon at the pump and all the Democrats voting no.
And just let them vote no let them vote no go pretend to burn it down. Let them be K let them let them vote no rich barris the man. Thank you my friend. We'll see you soon. October 15th.

We have I I always I lovingly refer to him as Charlie's favorite former Muslim and that is red Von red Von is our dear friend apostate profit red Von itemer he is a good friend and a now he's a Christian red Von I'll let you explain are you Catholic now I think you're Catholic right. Or the dogs or the dogs all right beautiful beautiful red Von you grew up in a Muslim family you you understand it intimately you understand the Quran you understand the belief systems the familial structures. So I believe that voters in Michigan do not fully understand what they're up against with Abdul al-Sahid I'm convinced that they are sleepwalking into something extraordinarily terrible.
And I wanted your help to explain it and so I I don't know what it is I don't know if it's the fact that he does ads with you know journey don't stop believing in all this kind of stuff he's trying to make himself out to be this all American boy who just happened to kind of grow up also in Egypt and things like this. But I want to play these clips for our audience and I want you to explain what's actually going on what he actually means by what he's saying okay. And the floor will be all yours sat twenty question 755. When the state of Oklahoma voted in a referendum to amend the Constitution to ban Sharia law. What does that mean I don't know. And yet the voters banned it anyway and I don't have to tell you that the same exact forces that drove native peoples from their land. Two centuries ago. Destroyed black Wall Street a century ago.
Bombed a building decades ago and tried to ban Sharia law not a decade ago. Those forces are alive and well today. Okay, I think this is confusing for people, Riddvan because he's speaking about it from a from a social justice standpoint and intersectional standpoint that he shares in the struggles of black Americans. marginalized communities in the past and our racist past and that's all that banning Sharia law Sharia law is. What when you hear him say this what what are you hearing as a former Muslim. So the first thing that he says is so there is there is a push to ban Sharia law and he doesn't even know what that means. I can tell him what that means and he also knows what that means. What I hear him saying as he's trying to deflect and he's trying to act like he's ignorant of what the matter actually is. He's trying to act like there is no such thing as Sharia law, but he knows very well what it is. He's an educated man, right?
In fact Muslims in general know what Sharia law is. So Sharia law is Islamic law. Basically I'm sorry my dog is barking but that's basically Sharia law can also you would you do like a shock treatment on him. Yeah, El Sayed's best buddy. So Sharia law can also just be called Islamic law because that is basically what it is. Islamic law is or Sharia law is a comprehensive law that has jurisdiction over all aspects of society. And by all aspects of society I really mean all aspects of society. It is to it is meant to regulate all of society. And this is unanimous in Islamic history that when Muslims live in a certain environment, in a realm, in a country, they're supposed to establish Islamic governance over all things. Family, morality, penal law, international law and all these things.
He knows this very well. He's trying to deflect from all of this by bringing up the past atrocities and discriminations and this and this and that. Go ahead. Riddban this is really the key point I think because he's made that comparison to canon law. Canon law as Catholics will know is actually just about the governance of church matters. How are how do you officiate only religious weddings, not civil ones. How do you deal with matters of clergy? I think he might also make a comparison to for example Jewish law but Jews have a very clear understanding that their laws govern their Jewish communities. It's not a way of governing all other people but Sharia quite explicitly this is laid out in Islamic texts. It is meant to govern Muslims and non-Muslims correct? Yes so canon law would be I mean canon law is also called ecclesiastical law. Ecclesiastical literally means church-related law. So it is law regarding church life. Internal church life among baptized Christians.
Matters related to rules of belief in conduct within the church and the consequences and penalties thereof. Whereas Sharia law is in no way comparable to this. Sharia law is the law of the country. So a better comparison if there was an equivalent and there is no equivalent in the Christian world. It would be if a Christian society became a full-blown totalitarian Christian theocracy which established a system where there are legal rules for every single aspect of society and where if you did something that is not in line with Christian morality for example you would be severely or brutally punished. There is no such thing in Christianity because Christianity doesn't have such a foundation. So the best thing that you can find is canon law which is not a comparison. Well let's Sharia law is a comprehensive law and everything. Let's play this clip. I think it's really telling and this is from I don't know a month ago with Jesse Waters. I look at this ridvan and I'm like there's something off with this guy.
He's a con artist and he's a liar and I don't think I think he thinks he's like you know Obama light he's trying to emulate the way Obama would kind of you know talk circles around people assuring this assuring tone and I just it's something is off with this guy. It's not 21. So getting rid of Sharia law's white supremacy can you explain that one? Did you know what canon law is Jesse? I assume you're Christian right? Yeah tell me. All right so canon law is the name for Christian law. I don't begrudge you your right to practice your faith as you choose. I don't know why the idea that I could practice my faith as I choose is a problem. Nobody is trying to push Sharia law on anyone else just like I hope nobody is trying to push canon law on anybody else because we live in an America where you should have the free. Nobody's trying to push Sharia law. What a freaking ruse that is. It's just it's just dishonest. Layton within Sharia law is it would be pushed on other people if we're capable of doing it correct. That is that is very correct.
So he's correct on one thing but that already gives him too much credit but he's correct on one thing which is that the right to to be a practicing Muslim is part of Sharia obviously. However it is also part of Sharia to police other people other other other societies in the society that is governed under Sharia. For example I am an ex-Muslim right I'm a I left Islam under Sharia law and this is agreed upon even according to the Oxford bibliography of Islamic studies. It is vastly almost unanimously agreed upon by Islamic jurisprudential scholars that if somebody leaves Islam the punishment for that would be death which is why a dozen Islamic countries most of the countries still have it in their laws written although not all of them applied because it's a bit difficult to apply in the modern world without getting high scrutiny from the Western and international law but you know blasphemy laws for example are part of Sharia law. So Sharia law comes together with being a practicing Muslim.
If Muslims have a majority status within a certain region they are expected to install and advocate for and impose Islamic law and once they do that it is not simply about being Muslim and practicing Islam it's also about policing society which has very fatal consequences upon other people. So this is hilarious by the way you've got I saw this on ex Riddvan. So you've got L Sayed saying we got to get we got to get big money out of out of politics. We got to get it out we got to get money out of politics we got to have Medicare for all okay and so he's last night he's it's a leaked footage from a Soros family fundraiser in California. This guy goes and flies to the songpikers home his but his BFF and he's he's raising money with the Soros family. This guy is a con artist people wake up he's trying to talk like Obama he's got short man syndrome he's like five six and by the way he talks about beating people up all the time
like this guy is such a fraud. I like I hear I'm just going to play a clip stop for two. I go on the show you know I A I want to give people the image of watching him get his **** whooped on his own show by a guy who prays like I do. With all due respect if they go low we don't go high we take him to the mud and choke him out. First kid who stepped to me I was like I am going to beat you mercilessly as a message to everybody else like that's going to be the last fight you've ever had. We should bash the **** out of Trump because he's a terrible human being who does awful things who's exploited a lot of pain and a lot of people. My goodness. All right, Ridbone. I think I think listen I think you did a great job explaining it and I want to make sure we cover this with our audience. There was a a event that happened in Saudi Arabia with a was it was what was the airline? It was one of the Dubai Airlines. Yeah so. So so here here's here's actually the details of what happened and it's it's wild and I know we have we have the B
roll here guys. So if you could show some of these images while I'm describing this. So a Muslim copilot pilot flying from Dubai to Tel Aviv stabs the other pilot and he starts screaming Allah who Akbar attempting to deliberately crash the plane. This thing goes down Ridbone. What was it? 20,000 feet in about 30 seconds. Passengers were able to get into the cockpit and subdue the terrorists. Two of the passengers were also pilots and took control of the aircraft landing it safely 180 people on board. Well, what have otherwise been a fatal crash they're all accounted for. The only person is injured is this other pilot. So I guess there was some some pilots there were Russian pilots or something that were able to land that this plane. They tried to carry out a 911 style attack in Israel and they failed, but it darn near happened and then on top of this. Ridbone, you've got this incident at the Air Force base, the Royal Air Force base in England and
it seems like they were doing like a test run. They were calling the emergency services to kind of test the response time. They let these guys off on bail. Please, the floor is yours, Ridbone. Worn the West about what we are the fire that we are playing with here when it comes to L. Sayed when it comes to immigration. Warn us. Sound the alarm. Where should I start? I mean, it's a very, very difficult thing to discuss because over the last half century or so, the Western nations and Western people and societies have made this great mistake of inspired by post-World War II guilds and reorganization of thoughts have had this whole idea of we should be completely tolerant and treat all cultures and ideas in the world as equal to us. Other cultures are simply cultures like ours. Other people are just people like us. So we should welcome everybody. We should welcome them in. They will integrate. They will change
and so on. It's a massively failed project and in every single country where this has played out, the same results are appearing. The people that came from Muslim countries mostly do not integrate. They start sticking to their own kind. They continue having Islamic ideas and the second generations and third generations end up being even more religious and more devout to their Islamic ideals than the first generation that came. When it comes to the religious beliefs and question, I use the word devout. When you consider a Christian person who is devout, you think of a Christian person who is who prays and who goes to church and who is a proper Christian who is Christ like. In Islam, it is not quite the same thing. Politics is part of Islam. Political subversion and fighting are part of Islam. So being Islamically devout means also being very politically active and advocating for political Islam which requires the subversion of
Christian societies and other societies. Islam is directly hostile to Christianity. In fact, the Quran itself directly describes Christianity as false and describes Christians as the worst of creatures. It literally does say that. It also commands Muslims to fight and subjugate Christians and Jews and others who do not convert to Islam. So, Ridvan, you just said it commands them to fight us, kill us, subjugate us, tax us. But right now they don't have the majority in the West. Not yet. Place some countries where about 10, 20 years off. That's how bad it is. They're far outbreeding us. You can't think about even just taking a snapshot right now. Think about it in 10, 20 years from now. Some of these countries, it's already cooked. The goose is already cooked. Ridvan, what is their strategy when they're not in the majority? Because you got here, El Sayed trying to act like Muslim Obama here and he's talking like a socialist. He's an intersectional warrior for the marginalized.
What is the strategy? Well, one is very, very clear. On the surface, it doesn't really make much sense. You see that Muslims, highly religious ones, generally go for leftist politics. They go for socialist parties. They go for leftist parties. In the US, they go for the democratic party. In the UK, they go for the labor party or the green party. In other countries, they do the same thing. It doesn't really make sense because the moral values and the general policies of such leftist and socialist parties are actually in complete contradiction with their own Islamic beliefs and outlooks. In fact, what's very funny is in the West, Muslims will generally vote for leftist and socialist parties. The same people in the Muslim world will generally vote for conservative, highly anti-leftist, highly anti-socialist parties. This is a very well-known fact. For example, in the Netherlands, there was a research which showed that among Turkish immigrants who were Erdogan voters, so voters for the Islamic government, 84% of them went in the Netherlands,
voted for leftist, socialist parties. It's because socialism and leftism comes together with the opposition to traditional values of Western nations. So when they work together with easily accessible socialist parties, which do not require them to adjust their own religious beliefs, they can easily together with those parties and those frameworks tackle the values that we have and slowly tear them down, tear them down and open and pave the way for their own political ideology. That is the way to subvert the West is through the left. And yet you will vote for the left because they're the party of letting you in and giving you money. But a long-term thing, it's very brief here, but this thing I saw yesterday, they survey Muslims in Denmark, a country that's had a lot of Islamic migration, and they're getting more extreme over time. In 2006, 37% of Muslims there prayed daily. 20, 15, 9 years later, it was 50%. 2006, 62% thought the Quran should be followed literally a few years later, 77%. Muslim countries cutting off their students going to schools in the West because they're getting radicalised
there. That's the threat. And thank you, Riddvan, for warning us against it. Riddvan, apostate prophet, check him out. He's a brave, brave man.

The information is free, but the knowledge is priceless. All right, so without further ado, we have a special guest in studio. That's Martha Knight.
She's the digital marketing director for America's Women of Arizona. And we're going to be talking about school choice because you guys know I'm very passionate about school choice. I think we need to break the back of the teachers unions. And one of the ways you do that is you start taking the kids out of the system because they get paid on a per head basis. Okay. And that means you get your kids a better education, Christian school, classical education, these types of things. The public schools hate it. The Democrats hate it. In Arizona, Martha, we had, there was all these referendums. The big poison pill one got kabocht. They didn't get the signatures. We dodged a bullet for the time being. Why don't we start there? Why were they trying who was behind it and who was trying to put these anti school choice referendums on the ballot? And then we're going to get into what their plan B is because now that's becoming clear. And you're here to warn us about the plan B. Yeah, absolutely. I worked very hard with ESA, which the left and the
teachers unions and save our schools will endorse was a voucher program to go into getting people out of alternative school options outside of public school. So homeschooling, private schooling, charter schooling, anything else other than public schooling. And so over the summer, they worked very hard to get a proposition onto the ballot that would, according to the Arizona Constitution, would forever no longer allowed ESA, which actually stands for Empower, Empowerment Scholarship Accounts. So it empowers school choice in Arizona. And we are the leader in the United States with school choice. Oh, it's amazing. So I moved here and all of a sudden I send my kids to Christian school and they get $7,500 a year per pupil. Yeah, instead of sending my money to the public school, I get to send my kids to Christian school. Every blue state you get paid, you have to pay tax for public schools that you can't send your
kid to because they'll possibly trans them. They'll feed them left wing propaganda. It'll be unsafe. It'll just not be great in general. And then you have to pay again to go to the actual school where they can actually learn. And in Arizona, thanks to our, thanks to some good leadership here. Thanks to do we have they paved the way. You can actually the tax dollars you pay are attached to your child. You've got to get them educated, but you can choose how it happens. I get so annoyed when people say what have our publicans ever done for us? They've passed. They've passed a law that gives you thousands of dollars to educate your kids how you see fit. So they hate this. They put these propositions. We killed one of them. The real bad one, the constitutional amendment one, which again, you have to understand a demo. If you're a Democrat, you want those union dollars flowing into your campaigns. Okay, that's the whole racket here, folks. The Democrat teacher unions, they're just Democrats, super PACs, you're paying for it. They send that money to Katie Hobbs. They send that money to the Democrats, whatever state it is. And they it greases their campaigns. And then
those teachers and those union members, they go out and they chase ballots. It's a whole racket. I'm telling you, if you had a fixed switch, it's massive legal immigration and illegal immigration. That's the fixed everything switch. But the other fixed everything switch is you break the back of the teachers union, you save the country. I really believe this. Okay, so they have a plan B, though. They're regrouping after losing this proposition. And it comes down to electoral politics. If they if they can switch the balance of the state legislature in the state of Arizona, and Katie Hobbs remains in power, they're going to revoke. Yes, A, aren't they? That's my understanding. And because they lost the battle with the proposition in court, they were getting illegitimate signatures from out of state operatives that were collecting signatures door to door. And it was horrible. But thankfully, Arizona courts shut it down. But now they are on fire to switch the legislature. And if they can get gain seats and give Katie
Hobbs an advantage with the House and the Senate, then legislatively, they will push to also get rid of empowerment scholarship accounts and maybe also affect the tax credit programs that are here in Arizona that have been here since 1997. And we are again, the leading state and maybe the only state with these exempt extensive tax programs that also benefit school choice. So you know what's interesting? I was living in California after Charlie died, moved my family here, which was, you know, a huge, we had a great Christian school in California. It was amazing. But again, I was getting double, I was paying double for it because I was paying my property tax and I was paying to send my kids to Christian school. Then we come here. And I will tell you one of the things that I noticed instantly was the quality of the young people in the state. You go around, there's like normal high schoolers and they're doing normal things and they're going good schools. And they seem like bright eyed. They seem happy. They seem well adjusted. It was this very, and I give so much credit to the education system here because so many families and by the way,
the numbers just keep surging. People love school choice. Families love school choice. They love it. Well, imagine $7,000 you can spend however you like or if you go to your local, yes, 7500 or can go to your local public school, which is, you know, they're going to, they'll get paid their wages and they'll divert them to their unionized teachers that will fight for every blue policy ever. You want Randy Weingarten to get a chunk of that money? Yeah, you're basically funding Randy Weingarten's like, you know, sushi bill and and they're her campaign spending. Go ahead. And you know, the public schools argument is that they have to be able to provide the resources that these alternative institutions cannot provide. So the Christian school that my children go to, all three of my kids are also in Christian school here in the valley. And they argue that they still have to provide the resources for everybody. They being the public schools. But as less kids are in those public schools, the resources free up for the people who need them because there's less overpopulation in the public school.
Sure. Smaller school sites. There's no longer a monopoly on educating children. They have to compete. They have to compete. Yes. So it serves everybody, no matter what, there are 110,000 families currently receiving ESA money. Every single one of those ESA consumers should be voting in the selection and should be voting for the correct policies and the correct people to keep ESA in place. What races are you looking at that you're that you want to highlight right here. So we have a lot of Arizona listeners. Obviously, the what races in particular you concerned about that you're like, Hey, we need more help on this legislative race. Yeah, absolutely. I'm a precinct committee person as well. I'm a mom. I'm a small business owner in Arizona. I am highly vested in Arizona as as an institution in a place I want to stay. And I am with LD 12, which is a very difficult to district in itself. I'm not saying that we can do a ton there.
But Kimberly Yee has to get in as the superintendent of schools. She is. She's very popular statewide. She's very thankfully and she knows her stuff. She knows she has extensive backgrounds in schooling school choice, public education, private education. She has got to get in office. Yeah. And Blake made a point. It's kind of like the longer you have ESA in a state like Arizona, it's almost like Obamacare. You know, it's I hate to relate the two. But in the sense that Obamacare became so entrenched people came so used to it that it becomes even harder to remove it. We are on our way with school choice in the same way. You know, what's good for the goose is good for the gander. If ESA remains intact and you have more and more families taking advantage of it, you try and remove that. You're going to be removed from office. It will become politically unfit. If you make it last long enough that it's something people are used to and we've seen that in so many bad policies. Remember that big drama over a Medicaid expansion. They did just
for COVID and suddenly it was basically going to be a genocide if you if you took it away because they got used to it. Yeah. After a couple of years, people and Kee Hobbs is denying us the federal ESA money, which is obscene. She's be told it's part of the one big beautiful bill. All the state has to do is sign up for it. That drives home how important this is. It's not merely that this is that it's money that's going to people and they can go to Christian schools. It's that on a deep level, it's like how the left realizes they need mass immigration in order to democratically transform the country. They know the public school system, which is filled with deranged political advocates at so many levels, is central to creating future voters who buy into their project. People blame college a lot. No, people are showing up to college prepared for this by their middle schools, by their high school. This is why people like it's so mad at what we're doing with Club America and all these high school chapters across the country. They can't let any dissent get in. No, they can't. And so what we're doing here and give us our marching orders in the
last minute we have here. What do you want people to do? How do we defend this? What do we do to fight midterms and local elections are all about showing up to vote. It makes the difference. Elections can be decided in these races by a couple hundred votes. And it would be so disheartening if we didn't make it by a couple hundred votes. You cannot sit this one out. Take you plus two. America's women is doing a big U plus two campaign to get yourself and to others to vote. And every Christian should be voting. Every ESA person getting ESA money should be voting. And we've got to get out there and cast our ballot. I love it. And it's such a good reminder. We got to break the back of the teachers unions. We got to vote. I know there's cynics out there. I know there's nihilism setting in for some of you, but we have to show up and vote. The future of
the country, the future of Western civilization depends on it. Vote, vote, vote. Thank you, Martha Knight. Thank you so much. So we've got emails coming in. Blake, why don't you read some of the emails. And then I've got some good news. I mean, we got a lot of stuff about on the Islam segment with Rivana. As we asked, we've got the free Hawaiian said what people don't understand is that true Islam based on the crime of hideyth has no separation between Islam and government. True Islam requires taking over governance and enacting shereela. We were trying to really drive that home with Rivana because it's such an important difference between Islam and Christianity that you read the New Testament and you can suss out, okay, a Christian should probably do this in government. But it's not there is no St. Paul laying out here is how you organize your Christian state here is how you handle unbelievers in Islam. You do that. That is explicitly there. Islam is a political ideology down to its essence and it's always worth highlighting that and that's why you really do see
any country that has a big Islamic revival has a very intense Islamification of its government at all levels. Well, you also see that any country like Lebanon that gets a Islamic foothold in it, the religious makeup of that country is going to transform rapidly and Christians are going to have a really really hard time, okay. What are some other emails we got? Let's see. So, Misty said, so he wished my husband says if he could go back in time, he would have bought Amazon when the stock was cheap after Kindle did badly. Although I don't even know if it did, but that's what she said. I would about Apple, I would about Nvidia, I would about Tesla. There's a lot. Mix says that's one of our guys who calls in sometimes on AMA. He said, this is the midterms messaging. Keep highlighting those local issues in Balrogron districts where we're getting those wins. I think that's something so worth driving home. Oh, you're mad that you're paying, I mean, we get it. You actually are mad. You're paying, you know, 20 bucks more at the pump when you get gas, but you can
get $7,500 a year for education that Democrats are desperate to get rid of. That's a lot of visits to the pump and they want to make get rid of it permanently. I think that's a great example. Here, let me highlight another win. It feels in theme with that last point that was just made by Mick there. Throughout 158, the White House put this out. Again, I think our biggest win as a movement has been immigration. Yes, there's economic wins. There's reinvestment wins, factors are getting built, all that stuff. DEI is getting obliterated within the federal government. The size of the federal government is getting slashed. All that stuff is great. Look at this. Legal immigrants and refugees from majority Muslim countries have fallen 96% since Joe Biden, 96%. The best part about this chart for those who can't see it is that it was put together by the Cato Institute, which is a libertarian think tank and their very pro open borders pro immigration. So they made this to
complain, oh, no, look at what the Trump administration has done cutting off all the immigration from Muslim countries. And I posted yesterday, thank you, Cato Institute for this tremendous White pill. Oh, man. This is this is huge, guys. So let's look at the peak. So between July and October, let's just call it August of 2024. There were probably about 24,000. So the peak of that graph, 24,000, 1000, 1000 Muslims that were admitted into the country legally 24,000 in one month. Think about the if you guys come from a small town in rural America, maybe there was 10,000 people, maybe there's 20,000, 30,000 in one month, the size of your town was led in. Now those people are going to have babies. They're going to have more babies than we're going to have babies. They're going to have uncles and aunts and all this family re-indipation spouses and kids. And they're going to go on welfare and they're going to take your tax money. And that's one month. And look at that
drop, that beautiful drop between October of 2025 and January of 2026 and February and it stayed down. They, that this Trump administration has successfully used the levers of power to do what previously was unthinkable. They have cut off Muslim mass migration to the United States of America. Let me repeat, the Trump administration has delivered one of the most significant profound, important civilizational defining wins in living memory to the United States. They have cut off Muslim immigration to the United States. Now our, what is calm friends to be nice, our friends in the liberal media will look at this and say, Oh, you're a Christian nationalist. Oh, you're a bigot. You are a racist against Muslims and Islam. And I would say Islam is not compatible with Western civilization. If we are going to save America, if we are going to save
the West, the West is really Christendom. It doesn't mean everybody has to practice Christianity. It doesn't mean that you have to go to church every week, although it would be a better place if you did. You would be a better person if you did. But it means that our laws, our customs, our traditions and our culture are fundamentally marked by people that are inheritors of the Western canon and of our value system, our understanding about the value of life, our understanding about the future of this country and what we want to see it become and the way our institutions run, the way we practice law, the way we punish criminals, the way we treat women, all of this is contingent on this graph and they have stopped the flow of Muslims into America and they should be celebrated for this. If you want one great reason to go vote and to get enthusiastic, you see that that fall down in that graph? If you vote for Democrats, that will shoot right back up. If you stop this progress that we've made, if you give up on the project of making
the conservative movement as conservative as its voters, if you give up on what we have accomplished, that will go straight back up and your kids and your grandkids and your family members will suffer as a result. You will be held hostage by Sharia law and people like Abdul El Sayed and Mamdani in New York and they will take the wealth that we have built up over generations. They will take the blessings of this country and they will destroy it and they will do it in the name of equity and they will do it in the name of social justice and intersectionality and defending the marginalized. Know what it means is they hate you, they hate men, they hate Christians, they hate the West. This graph is the most beautiful graph I have seen. I think in the entire Trump 2.0 term. It's so many. It's why it gets so irritated when people aren't more grateful because I'm not sure I've ever seen any administration deliver in my lifetime, deliver on a promise as dramatically as this administration has delivered on its immigration stuff that it said we're going to secure
the border, we're going to build the wall, we're going to stop letting in people from crappy countries filled with people who hate us. We're going to deport people, we're going to have record deportations, we're going to put them on planes, fly them out of the country, but just deliver it. Just to drop in the bucket. You know who doesn't think is a drop in the bucket, the left. That's why they make charts like that to freak out about it. They make charts like that because they know this matters. They know they make they've written entire articles that Trump is demographically transforming America because you're not having the endless flood of new births from recently arrived immigrants that they were counting on to let them take over the country. They've written those articles. Our people need to see those articles, need to see those facts that we have utterly changed the trajectory of our country in a positive way because this administration has fulfilled one of its core promises. This is beautiful. Throw that we're going to go out on that chart because it was beautiful. Look at it and thank God for this and may it continue.
