Speaker 1 (00:01):
There is a guy running for office in Maine. He
is a Nazi. He is a guy that had a
Nazi SS tattoo on his chest. He is a guy
that has said some incredibly radical and extreme things. He's
an individual that has mocked people who have fought, protect
(00:22):
and defended this country and said that they should die
or deserve to die. And this is a guy who
the Democratic Party seems to be willing to protect at
all costs until maybe today. Now I'll explain what happened
and what changed. I want to take you back to
Eric Swalwell as the basis for this story. You may
(00:45):
remember Eric Swalwell, scumbag, a guy that everybody knew had
major problems, a guy that the Democratic Party knew they
had major scandals around him, and they protected him at
all costs because he was one of those you know,
easy on the ITV. He was a guy that hated
Donald Trump. He was a guy that went after Donald Trump.
He was a Trump attack dog. And so the Democratic
(01:07):
Party was willing, more than happy like, more than willing
to look the other way, was more than willing to say, yeah,
we like him. We know that he's got all these
problems with women, in the office, and we know that
there's all these stories about him being a pretty terrible
person and a lot of issues, but we don't really
(01:27):
care because he's doing all these other things for us,
so we like him. Now, the Democratic Party had to
make a choice, and the choice that they had to
make was do we get rid of Eric Swalwell in
California and the governor's race once we realized just how
bad all right he is for us the Democratic Party,
(01:49):
and we may lose the governorship because of Eric Swalwell
and all the scandals that exploded on him. So what
the Democrats did is they started leaking their own intel
on Eric Swalwell to destroy him from within. It was
not Republicans that destroyed him, by the way. The media,
the same media that protected Eric Swalwell at all costs
(02:12):
were the same media that then worked with a Democratic
machine to take him down. They knew everything that he
had been accused of, they just didn't report on it.
They knew what a problem it was, and that's why
they protected him at all costs. But once a Democratic
machine said, hey, this guy may cost us the governorship,
we gotta go. We got to get rid of him.
(02:32):
That's when the media started turning and Eric Swalwell was
like in total shock, and it was one of those
like wait a second, guys, you're you're I'm part of
the machine, right, I'm I'm one of the one of
you guys. What are you doing? Like, I mean, really,
what are you doing? Why are you doing this? And
(02:53):
it was clear that the Democratic PRICESI hey, like, we've
enabled you for a long time, we've protected you, we
know all your secrets, We're going to leaking them, and
we're going to force you to drop out of this race.
And that's, by the way, exactly what happened. Now you
fast forward and use that playbook in what's happening in Maine.
You got Susan Collins, who's a many would refer to
(03:15):
as a rhino Republican in name only. Now, to be clear,
I have actually defended Susan Collins for quite some time
because I understand Maine. Maine is not a conservative state.
The proof of it is the fact they're running a
Nazi in the Democratic Party and they actually think that
they can win with a Nazi with a Nazi SS tattoo. Okay,
so like you got to understand, like that is not
(03:38):
a flyover country southern conservative state by any means, Susan
Collins is an individual who I understand that she's not
really a conservative. I'm happy that she's a Republican and
that she gets elected from there because it matters when
you're picking the leadership and who's in control in the Senate.
(04:01):
I also think it's important that she is elected there
instead of a Democrat because when it comes to things
like the Supreme Court, she votes with the Republican nominee.
That's incredibly important. I don't expect anything out of Susan
Collins besides that, I really don't. I don't expect her
to be conservative. I don't. I barely expect her to
(04:22):
be like even moderate. I don't expect her to be
a champion of Trump's ideas because I'm also a realist
and I understand that in Maine, the fact that we
even win is massive compared to how liberal Maine really is.
And again I go back to the proof of who
the Democratic Party is running there. They're running a guy
with a with a with a Nazi tattoo. Now, what
(04:45):
has happened recently is so much has come out on
this individual, and so much has come out on Platner
and the scandals that the Democratic Party now is act
pitching the bad stories on him, because I think what
they're gonna do is they're going to try to get
(05:06):
rid of him all together. They're gonna they're going to
force him out of the race. Now. The reason why
they could force him out of the race, and why
this may actually work, this idea may work, is because
the Democratic Party can pick somebody else, very much like
they did with Joe Biden if they get him out
by if they can get him to drop out, then
(05:28):
they can actually pick who they want to replace him
with on the ballot, and that would be huge. And
that's why the Democrats are now turning on him, not
because they don't like him, but because they're worried that
Susan Collins will win again. So they've got some time
here to figure this out. They have until July thirteenth
(05:49):
to decide what they're gonna do, and what I think
they're gonna do is try to get rid of him
before then so they can then say, all right, we
move on to another candidate, just like we did with
Kamala Harris. Now let's go back to the scandals here
all right, so you understand. But before we get to that,
I want to tell you about our good friends at
Patriot Mobile. Every day Americans make choices that shape our
(06:10):
country's future, right down to which cell phone provider we support.
Here's what most people don't actually realize. Patriot Mobile isn't
just a wireless provider. They're an activist organization funded by
selling top tier cell service. They've been on the front
lines defending our freedoms long before it was cool, standing
(06:31):
up and the gap when others wouldn't. The best part
is they deliver prioritized premium service on all three major
US networks, giving you the same or even better coverage
backed by one hundred percent US based customer support. You
get unlimited data, mobile hotspots, international roaming, and so much more.
(06:52):
But when you switch to Patriot Mobile, that's what I
love the most. You'll help grow a movement that fuels
the Christian conservative cause. Every bill you pay helps advance
the values of faith, family, and freedom. And switching is
easier than ever. You can literally activate in minutes, keep
your number, keep your phone, or upgrade. So take a
(07:14):
stand today. Go to Patriot Mobile dot com, slash ferguson
that's Patriotmobile dot com slash ferguson, or call them nine
to seven to two Patriot. That's nine seven to two
Patriot and use the promo code ferguson for a free
month of service patriotmobile dot com slash ferguson or nine
(07:35):
seven to two Patriot to make the switch. Today, the
Wall Street Journal reported that Graham Platner's wife flag sexually
explicit texts to his Senate campaign. Now, let me explain
why she would do that. She wasn't like going in
telling on her husband. She was explaining to them and
trusting people on the campaign that she genuinely trusted all
(07:58):
of the dirty laundry that may come out possibly. And
when you work on a campaign, I have you do
opposition research. You literally hire your own team to go
dig up any dirt they can find on you. And
when they find that dirt on you, they then come
back and then you basically rate it from one to
ten on how severe it is, and then do you
(08:21):
think it's probably going to come out or not. Now
they've only been married a few years. She goes to
the campaign as they're doing up research, It's like, hey,
this happened. She believes the campaign that they're of course
on her team, on their team, right, they work for
his campaign. Why would any of them leak it? This
(08:43):
is the Democratic Party. They now use the information that
she gave to them that they would have not found
they apparently would not have found it in opposition research,
and they now leaked it to the press on their
own because they're deciding, now, yeah, we really want to
get rich of Graham, and so from within you had
(09:03):
this leak, which is truly shocking. It is amazing that
this actually happened, except if you understand the Democratic Party
and you realize they are actually just soulless as a party,
then it doesn't actually surprise you that much. Now, this
scandal was created not by Republicans, not even by like
(09:26):
some whistleblower or some woman that he sent these sexually
explicit messages to. This is because of his own campaign
staff that's supposed to be trying to get him elected.
That's why I say get ready, because what they did
to Derek Swalwell, I believe they're trying to do right
now to Graham Platner. Now, the worry is, if you
(09:48):
are a Republican, is you kind of wanted this guy
to hang around until July seventeenth, because if he would have,
then they're stuck with him, and that gives us the
best chance to win. So let's look at the polls
for Platner, and this is the reason why Democrats are
in this in between. All right, So the latest polling
shows that the candidate the Democrats chose, a Nazi, is
(10:11):
currently leading the incumbent center Susan Collins. Now, the last
poll that's public was May twenty seventh, Okay, so that
is technically right before this newest scandal broke. I don't
know if it's going to have much of an impact.
I really don't, because it shows in a new University
of New Hampshire Survey Center poll released at twenty seventh
(10:34):
that found Platner at fifty one, Susan Collins at forty
two undecided er othered eight percent. Now, that gives Platner
a nine point lead over Collins, the incumbent. The broader
polling average is a little bit tighter, but it still
shows Platner with a seven point eight percent advantage. If
you take all the polls that are out there that
have been done in this in this state for this race,
(10:58):
and you do all of them and you average them,
it's forty eight eight to forty one. Now, the polling
comes even after Platner had hit with multiple damaging stories.
The tattoo link to the Nazi imagery offensive reddit posts
comments about veterans. Recent reports involving sexually explicit texts sent
to multiple women while married is in the very end
(11:20):
of this poll as well. Now, despite all this, Maine
Democrats are staying with him because they don't care, because
he's a radical, right, Like, That's what this really boils
down to. So what they're worried about, what they're concerned about, is, all, right,
do we get all this out there early, so maybe
get rid of him by July seventeenth, right or the sixteen,
(11:42):
excuse me? Or do we get all out there early
and then see if the polls hold him so we're
not surprised in November. Right, if you got all the
batsuff out there and they still stick with him, then
we should stick with him. Right, So you have the
campaign that again, this is a trade craft of the
Democratic Party. This is Democrat on Democrat violence. The Democrats
(12:06):
are pitching these stories. They want to see if the
voters will change hard on Graham with these stories out there,
and they're also worried that maybe he is a bad candidate,
So why not chunk it all out there and then
see what happens now? The New York Times says that
Platner's text with women concern campaign at a Senate race
took off. They were concerned, but no one did anything
(12:28):
about it. Now they're leaking it. We also found out
something that's even I think more shocking than that, is
Graham Platner has an active profile on a predator's paradise
messaging app. All right, There is apparently this app first
I've heard of it in my life, called Kick, and
(12:49):
it's known as a hotbed for child pornography, kidnapping, and
sexual abuse. The campaign, all right, that is dealing with
all these scandals, you'd still got an eight to nine
point lead, now has another story. And this story is
one that he had to know about, all right. The
(13:11):
main Democrat is a registered user on Kick. The National
Center on Sexually Sexual Exportation deems the anonymous messaging app
a quote predator's paradise thanks to a number of features
that allow underage users to join the app and then
communicate with adults. So you have that scandal now about
(13:35):
this guy. I'll be honest with you, I don't know
if it's gonna actually matter, and you're probably stire going, Ben,
are you kidding me? The Nazi tattoo didn't matter. Him
talking about doing sexual things in a porty potty didn't matter.
The text messages with it right with these women, that
didn't matter. And now you have him having an active
(13:56):
profile on what is to described as a predator's Paradise
and messaging app. I don't know if that matters. By
the way, the same Democratic Party they didn't care that
Joe Biden wasn't cognitively available to be the president United
It's America. As long as it meant that they had power.
That's all that mattered. They only cared about having the power,
(14:19):
which is really what I think this goes back to,
as well. This is just we want the power, right
like that, That's what we want. That's all we really
care about. We just need the power. He's the guy,
and he'll be a radical for us. He'll be a radical,
he'll be extremists. So we're good. Now. You look at
(14:40):
the Nazi tattoo and the Reddit posts, right and you think,
surely that would have been enough. No, then the women
text no now on a sexual deviant website for pedophiles. No,
that's probably not enough. My buddy Klay Travis put out
(15:01):
a tweet. It was very interesting. He said, So Graham
Plattner had a Nazi chest tattoo for twenty years, rooted
for military members get killed, lied about being poor. He
went to a rich boarding school and he was in
it and he was sending nudes to multiple women, and
his wife caught him and told the campaign, then that's
not enough. So then you have him on this deviant website, right,
(15:25):
throw that out there as well. The campaign was conducting
self opo research and the wife disclosed she found out
that he'd been sexing other women, and the campaign decided
it wasn't a big deal. No big deal, will move on.
We still like him. I will tell you that if
this guy gets elected, I'm actually not surprised. And the
reason why I say that is because I do believe
(15:46):
that this is now where the Democratic Party actually is.
I believe they are filled with these types of people
and they want people like this to be in power.
In fact, they want to empower people like this to
be in power, because if you empower people like this,
(16:08):
then you can get your extremist ideals to become more reality.
And do you really think that AOC and Graham Plattner
wouldn't get along famously and Bernie Sanders when you're putting
in Marxism, socialism and communism, like, look at Mandani, he
wants to take away private property? Doubt now, I mean,
(16:30):
what else can you say? And the Democratic Party, I
really believe that they're like, all right, let's just throw
it all out there, see what sticks with this guy,
and then if the people still support him, then we'll
stay all in. Because he's still having campaign events with
top Democrats that are sticking by him. That's another part
(16:53):
of this conversation that is really important. The Democrats are
sticking with him, and they're doing the campaign events. They're
out there lying about him, saying that he's this poor
guy who's just trying to, you know, just just stand
up for the little guy when he was actually rich.
They don't care. They're doing everything that they can now, okay,
(17:17):
everything that they can to put people like him in office.
They're not embarrassed by him, they're not ashamed by him.
They don't actually believe that this is a bad idea.
I actually think they think this is the best idea ever,
Like the perfect of you. I think they think this
is the candidate that we want. This is the candidate
that we can get behind. This is the candidate that
(17:37):
we can believe in. This is the candidate that could
get us to the Promised Land, right like, this is
the guy. He's the one that can get us there.
He will play and the Marxist, socialist, communist world that
we need him to play in. He's the one that
will push for transgendering children, are legalizing drugs, or weaponizing
(18:04):
the government to go after Donald Trump and his cabinet.
This is the guy that would blow up the Supreme
Court if he can. He will take orders from us,
He will do what we tell him to do. In
a sane world, he would already be gone. But the
Democratic Party is not a sane party. They are radical
(18:25):
extremist party, and they're showing it again. All right, real,
let's talk real quick about Joe Biden. Joe Biden is
going out on TV trying to convince America that somehow
Joe Biden's debate performance concerned her so much so that
she thought he was having a stroke, but then revealed
(18:47):
that Joe Biden never looked like that any other day
in the White House or in her life. If you
believe that I've got some ice to sell you an antarctica,
Joe Biden also has come out and she wants you
to believe that she is somehow, I guess, like a
victim here that she was frightened, that she was scared
(19:09):
by her husband's debate performance against Trump, and she said
she thought that he was having a stroke. She was afraid, Yes, afraid.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
Did you ever see signs that he was falling into
cognitive decline?
Speaker 3 (19:26):
No?
Speaker 1 (19:27):
No, no, truly no, that is a pathological liar or
someone that's incredibly stupid. Joe Biden just said there that
she didn't believe it, like like none of that, Like
she like I never saw anything change. She was asked
(19:49):
about that debate night, she said, I thought he was
having a stroke.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Were you horrified as you saw it unfold?
Speaker 3 (19:56):
I wasn't horrified. I was frightened because I had never
ever seen Joe like that before or since?
Speaker 2 (20:08):
Never since, yes, or has never never? No, well's happened.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
I don't know what happened. I mean when I as
I watched it, I thought, oh my god, he's having
a stroke, and it scared me to death.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
It scared me to death, so much so that afterwards
she went to a campaign event, and then after that
they decided because she was so afraid that he was
having a stroke. She was so frightened because I'd never
seen Joe that way before, never, never, Since, she goes,
I don't know what happened. As I watched it, I thought,
oh my god, he's having a stroke, and it scared
(20:43):
me to death. Okay, so what did she do afterwards? Afterwards?
They went to waffle house. Afterwards they went to waffle house,
and she then before that at a campaign event, talked
about how amazing he did and how he killed it. Now,
I understand the politics, and so you're not gonna walk
out there a manager. You really suck tonight, right like you?
(21:05):
I like, you really suck tonight. I understand that. But
you're also pathologically lying to the country when you walk
on stage with a sign behind you that says let's
go Joe, and you say this, Joe, you did such
a great job.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
You answered every question, you knew all that. Let me
ask the crowd, what did Trump do?
Speaker 1 (21:32):
Yes, Now, when she's saying this on stage, she looks
like she's cognitively there, and he looks like he's just
seeing a ghost. He clearly didn't know what was going
on while he was president of the United States of America.
He clearly didn't know what was happening. But that's what
she did. Joe, you did such a good job. You
(21:55):
answered all the questions. That's how fall like like like that,
that's how far we've fallen. That it's if you just
answer all the questions. Let me let me remind you
again of Joe Biden out there on the campaign trail.
What we saw last night on.
Speaker 4 (22:10):
The debate stage was Joe Biden, a president with integrity
and character.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
Who told that truth and Donald Trump told lie after
lie after lie.
Speaker 4 (22:29):
Oh you're good, You're so good.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
Did you hear that?
Speaker 4 (22:33):
Like?
Speaker 1 (22:33):
Did you did you hear that? That? That's now where
we are. You now have a Democratic Party that is
coming out and saying, oh, what was just one time?
Never happened before, not never never happened before, never seen
never seen him like this. All of them saw it,
We saw it, the media saw it, and they all
covered it up.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
President Biden had said that he would never pardon his son.
He did, and then he pardoned him. Did you urge
the president to think again about that?
Speaker 3 (23:06):
Well, you know, Joe said in the beginning, I won't
pardon Hunter, I won't pardon Hunter. And then uh, and
did you say? And then that this department changed and
I think that the process was not fair to Hunter.
But then when Trump was elected, things changed and we
(23:30):
knew that he would target Hunter and we just could
not let our son go to jail on a charge
that no one would go I mean, no one has ever.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Gone to jail for Did you urge the president to
part Oh?
Speaker 3 (23:46):
Gosh?
Speaker 1 (23:47):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (23:48):
I truly supported it. I wanted him to pardon Hunter
at that point. And I agree with Joe.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
President Biden, for the first time in history, also emptibly
pardoned other members of your family. Why did he decide
to do that.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
I suppose for the same reason that he felt that
they would be targeted.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
Because you felt that the Trump Justice Apartment would target
them or the Trump administration would target them. Are you
worried in publishing this book that the Trump administration will
come after you?
Speaker 1 (24:26):
And I mean, this is insane. She writes a book.
She then goes out there and she then tells you
that everything that you saw didn't really happen the way
that you saw it, and did not believe what you're
lying eyes. Oh and by the way, please go spend
money to buy my book so that you can read
(24:47):
more of me, real writing history and rewriting the lies
that have happened. They will never learn from what just happened.
That's what I've learned from this. They will give you
candidates that have Nazi tattoos. They will give you candidates
that are on these creeper websites. They will give you socialists, Marxists,
and communist candidates. They will give you the ar Aocs,
(25:11):
the Alamo Mars, the Mandans of New York, the karen
Basses of La And they will not care if you
suffer because of their leadership, because it's ultimately clearly about
one thing, and that is ultimate control over you. They
want control at all costs. They want to be in
(25:34):
charge of your life where you have no say so
in your life. And that's exactly why you are now
witnessing this story unfold the way that it is unfolding,
because they're fine with lying to you like they really
like they really are. They are totally fine with lying
(25:58):
to you. They are there. They are fine with you
believing that this type of debate, conversation, whatever you want
to call it, is somehow normal. They want you to
believe that all of this is in fact normal. Now
(26:21):
you and I both know it's not normal. We understand
the candidates are not normal. We understand that Joe Biden
was in a massive cognitive decline. We understand that the
Democratic Party protected Joe Biden and said we will never
not protect Joe Biden until they thought they were going
to lose, and then when they do, they got rid
of the same way they're gonna get rid of a
very good chance of platinum, the same way they got
rid of Rick Swawell. They excommunicated Joe Biden, a sitting president.
(26:44):
It's America and through in Kamala Harrison Again, no one
got to vote for That's the story here, That's the
whole ballgame. Don't forget Share this podcast please with your
family and your friends where whoever they are, and I
will see you back here to more roll
There is a guy running for office in Maine. He
is a Nazi. He is a guy that had a
Nazi SS tattoo on his chest. He is a guy
that has said some incredibly radical and extreme things. He's
an individual that has mocked people who have fought, protect
(00:22):
and defended this country and said that they should die
or deserve to die. And this is a guy who
the Democratic Party seems to be willing to protect at
all costs until maybe today. Now I'll explain what happened
and what changed. I want to take you back to
Eric Swalwell as the basis for this story. You may
(00:45):
remember Eric Swalwell, scumbag, a guy that everybody knew had
major problems, a guy that the Democratic Party knew they
had major scandals around him, and they protected him at
all costs because he was one of those you know,
easy on the ITV. He was a guy that hated
Donald Trump. He was a guy that went after Donald Trump.
He was a Trump attack dog. And so the Democratic
(01:07):
Party was willing, more than happy like, more than willing
to look the other way, was more than willing to say, yeah,
we like him. We know that he's got all these
problems with women, in the office, and we know that
there's all these stories about him being a pretty terrible
person and a lot of issues, but we don't really
(01:27):
care because he's doing all these other things for us,
so we like him. Now, the Democratic Party had to
make a choice, and the choice that they had to
make was do we get rid of Eric Swalwell in
California and the governor's race once we realized just how
bad all right he is for us the Democratic Party,
(01:49):
and we may lose the governorship because of Eric Swalwell
and all the scandals that exploded on him. So what
the Democrats did is they started leaking their own intel
on Eric Swalwell to destroy him from within. It was
not Republicans that destroyed him, by the way. The media,
the same media that protected Eric Swalwell at all costs
(02:12):
were the same media that then worked with a Democratic
machine to take him down. They knew everything that he
had been accused of, they just didn't report on it.
They knew what a problem it was, and that's why
they protected him at all costs. But once a Democratic
machine said, hey, this guy may cost us the governorship,
we gotta go. We got to get rid of him.
(02:32):
That's when the media started turning and Eric Swalwell was
like in total shock, and it was one of those
like wait a second, guys, you're you're I'm part of
the machine, right, I'm I'm one of the one of
you guys. What are you doing? Like, I mean, really,
what are you doing? Why are you doing this? And
(02:53):
it was clear that the Democratic PRICESI hey, like, we've
enabled you for a long time, we've protected you, we
know all your secrets, We're going to leaking them, and
we're going to force you to drop out of this race.
And that's, by the way, exactly what happened. Now you
fast forward and use that playbook in what's happening in Maine.
You got Susan Collins, who's a many would refer to
(03:15):
as a rhino Republican in name only. Now, to be clear,
I have actually defended Susan Collins for quite some time
because I understand Maine. Maine is not a conservative state.
The proof of it is the fact they're running a
Nazi in the Democratic Party and they actually think that
they can win with a Nazi with a Nazi SS tattoo. Okay,
so like you got to understand, like that is not
(03:38):
a flyover country southern conservative state by any means, Susan
Collins is an individual who I understand that she's not
really a conservative. I'm happy that she's a Republican and
that she gets elected from there because it matters when
you're picking the leadership and who's in control in the Senate.
(04:01):
I also think it's important that she is elected there
instead of a Democrat because when it comes to things
like the Supreme Court, she votes with the Republican nominee.
That's incredibly important. I don't expect anything out of Susan
Collins besides that, I really don't. I don't expect her
to be conservative. I don't. I barely expect her to
(04:22):
be like even moderate. I don't expect her to be
a champion of Trump's ideas because I'm also a realist
and I understand that in Maine, the fact that we
even win is massive compared to how liberal Maine really is.
And again I go back to the proof of who
the Democratic Party is running there. They're running a guy
with a with a with a Nazi tattoo. Now, what
(04:45):
has happened recently is so much has come out on
this individual, and so much has come out on Platner
and the scandals that the Democratic Party now is act
pitching the bad stories on him, because I think what
they're gonna do is they're going to try to get
(05:06):
rid of him all together. They're gonna they're going to
force him out of the race. Now. The reason why
they could force him out of the race, and why
this may actually work, this idea may work, is because
the Democratic Party can pick somebody else, very much like
they did with Joe Biden if they get him out
by if they can get him to drop out, then
(05:28):
they can actually pick who they want to replace him
with on the ballot, and that would be huge. And
that's why the Democrats are now turning on him, not
because they don't like him, but because they're worried that
Susan Collins will win again. So they've got some time
here to figure this out. They have until July thirteenth
(05:49):
to decide what they're gonna do, and what I think
they're gonna do is try to get rid of him
before then so they can then say, all right, we
move on to another candidate, just like we did with
Kamala Harris. Now let's go back to the scandals here
all right, so you understand. But before we get to that,
I want to tell you about our good friends at
Patriot Mobile. Every day Americans make choices that shape our
(06:10):
country's future, right down to which cell phone provider we support.
Here's what most people don't actually realize. Patriot Mobile isn't
just a wireless provider. They're an activist organization funded by
selling top tier cell service. They've been on the front
lines defending our freedoms long before it was cool, standing
(06:31):
up and the gap when others wouldn't. The best part
is they deliver prioritized premium service on all three major
US networks, giving you the same or even better coverage
backed by one hundred percent US based customer support. You
get unlimited data, mobile hotspots, international roaming, and so much more.
(06:52):
But when you switch to Patriot Mobile, that's what I
love the most. You'll help grow a movement that fuels
the Christian conservative cause. Every bill you pay helps advance
the values of faith, family, and freedom. And switching is
easier than ever. You can literally activate in minutes, keep
your number, keep your phone, or upgrade. So take a
(07:14):
stand today. Go to Patriot Mobile dot com, slash ferguson
that's Patriotmobile dot com slash ferguson, or call them nine
to seven to two Patriot. That's nine seven to two
Patriot and use the promo code ferguson for a free
month of service patriotmobile dot com slash ferguson or nine
(07:35):
seven to two Patriot to make the switch. Today, the
Wall Street Journal reported that Graham Platner's wife flag sexually
explicit texts to his Senate campaign. Now, let me explain
why she would do that. She wasn't like going in
telling on her husband. She was explaining to them and
trusting people on the campaign that she genuinely trusted all
(07:58):
of the dirty laundry that may come out possibly. And
when you work on a campaign, I have you do
opposition research. You literally hire your own team to go
dig up any dirt they can find on you. And
when they find that dirt on you, they then come
back and then you basically rate it from one to
ten on how severe it is, and then do you
(08:21):
think it's probably going to come out or not. Now
they've only been married a few years. She goes to
the campaign as they're doing up research, It's like, hey,
this happened. She believes the campaign that they're of course
on her team, on their team, right, they work for
his campaign. Why would any of them leak it? This
(08:43):
is the Democratic Party. They now use the information that
she gave to them that they would have not found
they apparently would not have found it in opposition research,
and they now leaked it to the press on their
own because they're deciding, now, yeah, we really want to
get rich of Graham, and so from within you had
(09:03):
this leak, which is truly shocking. It is amazing that
this actually happened, except if you understand the Democratic Party
and you realize they are actually just soulless as a party,
then it doesn't actually surprise you that much. Now, this
scandal was created not by Republicans, not even by like
(09:26):
some whistleblower or some woman that he sent these sexually
explicit messages to. This is because of his own campaign
staff that's supposed to be trying to get him elected.
That's why I say get ready, because what they did
to Derek Swalwell, I believe they're trying to do right
now to Graham Platner. Now, the worry is, if you
(09:48):
are a Republican, is you kind of wanted this guy
to hang around until July seventeenth, because if he would have,
then they're stuck with him, and that gives us the
best chance to win. So let's look at the polls
for Platner, and this is the reason why Democrats are
in this in between. All right, So the latest polling
shows that the candidate the Democrats chose, a Nazi, is
(10:11):
currently leading the incumbent center Susan Collins. Now, the last
poll that's public was May twenty seventh, Okay, so that
is technically right before this newest scandal broke. I don't
know if it's going to have much of an impact.
I really don't, because it shows in a new University
of New Hampshire Survey Center poll released at twenty seventh
(10:34):
that found Platner at fifty one, Susan Collins at forty
two undecided er othered eight percent. Now, that gives Platner
a nine point lead over Collins, the incumbent. The broader
polling average is a little bit tighter, but it still
shows Platner with a seven point eight percent advantage. If
you take all the polls that are out there that
have been done in this in this state for this race,
(10:58):
and you do all of them and you average them,
it's forty eight eight to forty one. Now, the polling
comes even after Platner had hit with multiple damaging stories.
The tattoo link to the Nazi imagery offensive reddit posts
comments about veterans. Recent reports involving sexually explicit texts sent
to multiple women while married is in the very end
(11:20):
of this poll as well. Now, despite all this, Maine
Democrats are staying with him because they don't care, because
he's a radical, right, Like, That's what this really boils
down to. So what they're worried about, what they're concerned about, is, all, right,
do we get all this out there early, so maybe
get rid of him by July seventeenth, right or the sixteen,
(11:42):
excuse me? Or do we get all out there early
and then see if the polls hold him so we're
not surprised in November. Right, if you got all the
batsuff out there and they still stick with him, then
we should stick with him. Right, So you have the
campaign that again, this is a trade craft of the
Democratic Party. This is Democrat on Democrat violence. The Democrats
(12:06):
are pitching these stories. They want to see if the
voters will change hard on Graham with these stories out there,
and they're also worried that maybe he is a bad candidate,
So why not chunk it all out there and then
see what happens now? The New York Times says that
Platner's text with women concern campaign at a Senate race
took off. They were concerned, but no one did anything
(12:28):
about it. Now they're leaking it. We also found out
something that's even I think more shocking than that, is
Graham Platner has an active profile on a predator's paradise
messaging app. All right, There is apparently this app first
I've heard of it in my life, called Kick, and
(12:49):
it's known as a hotbed for child pornography, kidnapping, and
sexual abuse. The campaign, all right, that is dealing with
all these scandals, you'd still got an eight to nine
point lead, now has another story. And this story is
one that he had to know about, all right. The
(13:11):
main Democrat is a registered user on Kick. The National
Center on Sexually Sexual Exportation deems the anonymous messaging app
a quote predator's paradise thanks to a number of features
that allow underage users to join the app and then
communicate with adults. So you have that scandal now about
(13:35):
this guy. I'll be honest with you, I don't know
if it's gonna actually matter, and you're probably stire going, Ben,
are you kidding me? The Nazi tattoo didn't matter. Him
talking about doing sexual things in a porty potty didn't matter.
The text messages with it right with these women, that
didn't matter. And now you have him having an active
(13:56):
profile on what is to described as a predator's Paradise
and messaging app. I don't know if that matters. By
the way, the same Democratic Party they didn't care that
Joe Biden wasn't cognitively available to be the president United
It's America. As long as it meant that they had power.
That's all that mattered. They only cared about having the power,
(14:19):
which is really what I think this goes back to,
as well. This is just we want the power, right
like that, That's what we want. That's all we really
care about. We just need the power. He's the guy,
and he'll be a radical for us. He'll be a radical,
he'll be extremists. So we're good. Now. You look at
(14:40):
the Nazi tattoo and the Reddit posts, right and you think,
surely that would have been enough. No, then the women
text no now on a sexual deviant website for pedophiles. No,
that's probably not enough. My buddy Klay Travis put out
(15:01):
a tweet. It was very interesting. He said, So Graham
Plattner had a Nazi chest tattoo for twenty years, rooted
for military members get killed, lied about being poor. He
went to a rich boarding school and he was in
it and he was sending nudes to multiple women, and
his wife caught him and told the campaign, then that's
not enough. So then you have him on this deviant website, right,
(15:25):
throw that out there as well. The campaign was conducting
self opo research and the wife disclosed she found out
that he'd been sexing other women, and the campaign decided
it wasn't a big deal. No big deal, will move on.
We still like him. I will tell you that if
this guy gets elected, I'm actually not surprised. And the
reason why I say that is because I do believe
(15:46):
that this is now where the Democratic Party actually is.
I believe they are filled with these types of people
and they want people like this to be in power.
In fact, they want to empower people like this to
be in power, because if you empower people like this,
(16:08):
then you can get your extremist ideals to become more reality.
And do you really think that AOC and Graham Plattner
wouldn't get along famously and Bernie Sanders when you're putting
in Marxism, socialism and communism, like, look at Mandani, he
wants to take away private property? Doubt now, I mean,
(16:30):
what else can you say? And the Democratic Party, I
really believe that they're like, all right, let's just throw
it all out there, see what sticks with this guy,
and then if the people still support him, then we'll
stay all in. Because he's still having campaign events with
top Democrats that are sticking by him. That's another part
(16:53):
of this conversation that is really important. The Democrats are
sticking with him, and they're doing the campaign events. They're
out there lying about him, saying that he's this poor
guy who's just trying to, you know, just just stand
up for the little guy when he was actually rich.
They don't care. They're doing everything that they can now, okay,
(17:17):
everything that they can to put people like him in office.
They're not embarrassed by him, they're not ashamed by him.
They don't actually believe that this is a bad idea.
I actually think they think this is the best idea ever,
Like the perfect of you. I think they think this
is the candidate that we want. This is the candidate
that we can get behind. This is the candidate that
(17:37):
we can believe in. This is the candidate that could
get us to the Promised Land, right like, this is
the guy. He's the one that can get us there.
He will play and the Marxist, socialist, communist world that
we need him to play in. He's the one that
will push for transgendering children, are legalizing drugs, or weaponizing
(18:04):
the government to go after Donald Trump and his cabinet.
This is the guy that would blow up the Supreme
Court if he can. He will take orders from us,
He will do what we tell him to do. In
a sane world, he would already be gone. But the
Democratic Party is not a sane party. They are radical
(18:25):
extremist party, and they're showing it again. All right, real,
let's talk real quick about Joe Biden. Joe Biden is
going out on TV trying to convince America that somehow
Joe Biden's debate performance concerned her so much so that
she thought he was having a stroke, but then revealed
(18:47):
that Joe Biden never looked like that any other day
in the White House or in her life. If you
believe that I've got some ice to sell you an antarctica,
Joe Biden also has come out and she wants you
to believe that she is somehow, I guess, like a
victim here that she was frightened, that she was scared
(19:09):
by her husband's debate performance against Trump, and she said
she thought that he was having a stroke. She was afraid, Yes, afraid.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
Did you ever see signs that he was falling into
cognitive decline?
Speaker 3 (19:26):
No?
Speaker 1 (19:27):
No, no, truly no, that is a pathological liar or
someone that's incredibly stupid. Joe Biden just said there that
she didn't believe it, like like none of that, Like
she like I never saw anything change. She was asked
(19:49):
about that debate night, she said, I thought he was
having a stroke.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Were you horrified as you saw it unfold?
Speaker 3 (19:56):
I wasn't horrified. I was frightened because I had never
ever seen Joe like that before or since?
Speaker 2 (20:08):
Never since, yes, or has never never? No, well's happened.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
I don't know what happened. I mean when I as
I watched it, I thought, oh my god, he's having
a stroke, and it scared me to death.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
It scared me to death, so much so that afterwards
she went to a campaign event, and then after that
they decided because she was so afraid that he was
having a stroke. She was so frightened because I'd never
seen Joe that way before, never, never, Since, she goes,
I don't know what happened. As I watched it, I thought,
oh my god, he's having a stroke, and it scared
(20:43):
me to death. Okay, so what did she do afterwards? Afterwards?
They went to waffle house. Afterwards they went to waffle house,
and she then before that at a campaign event, talked
about how amazing he did and how he killed it. Now,
I understand the politics, and so you're not gonna walk
out there a manager. You really suck tonight, right like you?
(21:05):
I like, you really suck tonight. I understand that. But
you're also pathologically lying to the country when you walk
on stage with a sign behind you that says let's
go Joe, and you say this, Joe, you did such
a great job.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
You answered every question, you knew all that. Let me
ask the crowd, what did Trump do?
Speaker 1 (21:32):
Yes, Now, when she's saying this on stage, she looks
like she's cognitively there, and he looks like he's just
seeing a ghost. He clearly didn't know what was going
on while he was president of the United States of America.
He clearly didn't know what was happening. But that's what
she did. Joe, you did such a good job. You
(21:55):
answered all the questions. That's how fall like like like that,
that's how far we've fallen. That it's if you just
answer all the questions. Let me let me remind you
again of Joe Biden out there on the campaign trail.
What we saw last night on.
Speaker 4 (22:10):
The debate stage was Joe Biden, a president with integrity
and character.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
Who told that truth and Donald Trump told lie after
lie after lie.
Speaker 4 (22:29):
Oh you're good, You're so good.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
Did you hear that?
Speaker 4 (22:33):
Like?
Speaker 1 (22:33):
Did you did you hear that? That? That's now where
we are. You now have a Democratic Party that is
coming out and saying, oh, what was just one time?
Never happened before, not never never happened before, never seen
never seen him like this. All of them saw it,
We saw it, the media saw it, and they all
covered it up.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
President Biden had said that he would never pardon his son.
He did, and then he pardoned him. Did you urge
the president to think again about that?
Speaker 3 (23:06):
Well, you know, Joe said in the beginning, I won't
pardon Hunter, I won't pardon Hunter. And then uh, and
did you say? And then that this department changed and
I think that the process was not fair to Hunter.
But then when Trump was elected, things changed and we
(23:30):
knew that he would target Hunter and we just could
not let our son go to jail on a charge
that no one would go I mean, no one has ever.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Gone to jail for Did you urge the president to
part Oh?
Speaker 3 (23:46):
Gosh?
Speaker 1 (23:47):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (23:48):
I truly supported it. I wanted him to pardon Hunter
at that point. And I agree with Joe.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
President Biden, for the first time in history, also emptibly
pardoned other members of your family. Why did he decide
to do that.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
I suppose for the same reason that he felt that
they would be targeted.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
Because you felt that the Trump Justice Apartment would target
them or the Trump administration would target them. Are you
worried in publishing this book that the Trump administration will
come after you?
Speaker 1 (24:26):
And I mean, this is insane. She writes a book.
She then goes out there and she then tells you
that everything that you saw didn't really happen the way
that you saw it, and did not believe what you're
lying eyes. Oh and by the way, please go spend
money to buy my book so that you can read
(24:47):
more of me, real writing history and rewriting the lies
that have happened. They will never learn from what just happened.
That's what I've learned from this. They will give you
candidates that have Nazi tattoos. They will give you candidates
that are on these creeper websites. They will give you socialists, Marxists,
and communist candidates. They will give you the ar Aocs,
(25:11):
the Alamo Mars, the Mandans of New York, the karen
Basses of La And they will not care if you
suffer because of their leadership, because it's ultimately clearly about
one thing, and that is ultimate control over you. They
want control at all costs. They want to be in
(25:34):
charge of your life where you have no say so
in your life. And that's exactly why you are now
witnessing this story unfold the way that it is unfolding,
because they're fine with lying to you like they really
like they really are. They are totally fine with lying
(25:58):
to you. They are there. They are fine with you
believing that this type of debate, conversation, whatever you want
to call it, is somehow normal. They want you to
believe that all of this is in fact normal. Now
(26:21):
you and I both know it's not normal. We understand
the candidates are not normal. We understand that Joe Biden
was in a massive cognitive decline. We understand that the
Democratic Party protected Joe Biden and said we will never
not protect Joe Biden until they thought they were going
to lose, and then when they do, they got rid
of the same way they're gonna get rid of a
very good chance of platinum, the same way they got
rid of Rick Swawell. They excommunicated Joe Biden, a sitting president.
