Speaker 1 (00:03):
Warning you're a about to enter the arena and join
the Battle to Save America with your host, Sean Parnell.
Good evening, America. No, this is not a hostage video.
This is Battleground Live. This is my very first remote show,
(00:26):
So say a prayer for good Internet. We're in a
condo hotel room, Fort Parnell. Commander Melanie, who is the
track commander, sitting shotgun the whole way, and all five
kids made the trek out to Delaware to not to
visit Joe Biden, although we are right down the road
(00:47):
from that animated corpse as they desperately try to dip
him in the Lazarus pit. No, we came to visit
my father in law. It's his seventy fifth birthday today,
so to say that it was chaos getting here might
be a little bit of an understatement. And no, I'm
not even talking about the kids. The kids were actually
pretty great. Commander. I've got my producer extraordinaire sitting shotgun
(01:11):
with me right now. She's not gonna come on camera,
even though I've asked her many times to do so.
But Melanie, Commander Melanie is sitting right here. I'm gesturing
off camera. But we got here okay, and the kids
were really good, and I remember I was like talking,
you know when we're in the car. You know, I'm
a dad, It's my most important job in the entire world.
(01:31):
And so Madonna, like a prayer came on and I
was singing like a prayer and all the kids were
looking at me like I was crazy, and I said,
I am not ashamed to sing the girl parts to
any song. I don't care, and almost universally from the
back seat was everybody was like, we know, but we
(01:54):
are here, and you know, another thing. So we're like,
get a call from Melanie's The kids call him Poppy,
but you get a call from Melanie's dad, and he's like, oh,
you guys might get here before me. If you get
here about noon, I might not be back. I just
got some business attend to do. You know what business
that was the guy jumped out of a plane this morning,
(02:17):
and we thought it might be like, hey, because he
was talking about George hw Bush jumping out of an
airplane on his birthday like every year, like jumping out
of an airplane like on his ninetieth birthday. And you
could tell even back then, just a couple of weeks
ago that the wheels were turning a little bit. So yeah,
seventy fifth birthday jumps out of a freaking airplane today.
(02:38):
Didn't tell any of us, but hey, kudos and happy
birthday to Sandy aka Poppy, my father in law, Melanie's father.
You know, we love you and it's great to be
down here with you. So, as I was planning in
the show, obviously trying to scramble to plan the show,
my youngest son Evan, I was like, right here, like
(02:59):
right here with me. He's down, he's down playing right now,
down at the beach or something, and I'm like, okay,
So I sit down. I'm like, okay, now, seven hour drive. Now,
what am I going to talk about? And that was
like thirty minutes ago, And of course I was keeping
up on the news cycle last night. We're going to
talk about President Trump's speech, We're going to talk about
(03:19):
the Democrats ratcheting up pressure on Biden. I'm gonna give
you all the latest, all the latest news on this
assassination attempt on President Trump today and also stuff that
I am hearing from sources on the inside, secret Service
agents that I've known for a very very long time
who are very unhappy with the situation. So all that
ahead and more on Battleground Live from Ceed to Shining Sea.
(03:40):
I've been forgetting this the last couple of days. You know,
this is kind of like my shtick from Ceda, Shining
Sea and everybody in between. Welcome patriots to the battle crew.
Hopefully the quality of the show is okay. But as
I'm planning the show, I'm talking to my youngest son, Evan,
who's super interested in all of this. We kind of
got like a remote setup and he's like, I'm like,
(04:01):
so what am I? What am I going to talk about?
And Evan is my last child, our last child that
still has like a kid voice or a baby voice.
He's like, Dad, just talk about Trump's speech. You just
talk about Trump's speech, calls him Trump. I'm like, you
(04:22):
know what, well, that's a great idea. So yeah, we're
going to talk about Trump's speech right off the top
and the moment that we're in here, so Trump at
the RNC yesterday. I have to tell you all, folks,
I on a very very serious note, this last week
has affected me in a really really strange way. And
(04:44):
you can talk to Commander Melanie about it. But I
have been not struggling with it. That's the wrong word.
It's not about getting shot, and I've been shot at many, many,
many many times. Like I don't care about that, But
it was the idea of of losing somebody that like
my wife, who's there, who is exposed because of the
(05:06):
negligence of the United States Secret Service. And then add
to that the fact that the United States Secret Service
is now trying to blame local law enforcement. And I
know because I know all the members of the local
law enforcement community in and around western Pennsylvania. These guys
just talking to them, I'm telling you they were tasked
(05:26):
with what they call the outer court on just directing traffic,
that's it. But when shots rang out or they said
there was a shooter on the roof, these guys hauled
asked to wherever they thought the shooter was running towards
the sound of gunfire. But the question is is why
wasn't that building on lockdown. I mean, we talked about
this a little bit every single day this week, and
(05:48):
we're going to get into that and so much more.
I'm telling you we're going to get into that in
depth here in a little bit. But one of my
very very good friends is let's just say, he specializes
in diplomatic security for ambassadors, and he protected Ambassador Bremer
in both Iraq and Afghanistan in actual combat situations. I
(06:12):
talked to him in depth about that operation, the rally
in Butler last Saturday, and he said that not only
did they get one thing wrong, he said, from top
to bottom, the US Secret Service got everything wrong. So
put a pin in that. We're going to come back
(06:33):
to that. But this week has been really tough for me,
just trying to unpack all of this. And I was
wondering how it was going to be for Donald Trump
because he was a target, right, I mean, he got
hit in a weird, strange way. You know, Donald Trump
(06:56):
and the thirty plus thousand people that were there got
shot at together. Isn't that the strangest thing. And when
that happens, you form a bond with that person, and
you know, it's just the truth. And I was wondering
how he was going to process it. And I've watched
him at the convention this week, and I've noticed just
(07:20):
a change in his comportment, not necessarily how he speaks,
but how he presents himself, not that he doesn't own
a room every time he does. He's still the same
Donald Trump in that way, but there's you can sense,
whether it's on a deeper emotional level, psychological level. I
don't know. I'm not trying to diagnose the guy, but
you can sense that something is changed in him. In
(07:45):
the first twenty five minutes of his speech, I was,
I mean, I found myself getting a little, you know,
emotional in a way because I love this country and
I mean, obviously I'm a Donald Trump guy, but we
(08:06):
almost lost the presumptive Republican nominee. And I've said it
many times, he's the most electric, electrifying political figure in
my lifetime. And it's not even close. And you look
at everything that because the media is all like, well
they who look at so so troubling. So many people
(08:26):
on that stage are saying they tried to kill President Trump.
They they they that's troubling. It's been really upsetting to
me because we all know who they is, right, Chucky Schumer,
like the intelligence community of the six Ways from Sunday
(08:49):
at getting back at yeah, the deep state, unelected bureaucrats,
people that aren't beholden to us, people who are impossible
to fight. We know who they are, right and they
have hated Donald Trump since the moment he came down
the Golden escalator. There's not even been a question they
(09:12):
fabricated intelligence against him. The Steele dossier was completely fake,
with some of the most grotesque false accusations that you
could possibly muster against somebody. Just as an aside, can
you imagine being Millennia? Can you imagine? I mean you
can imagine You've you've been through that with me where
(09:33):
they're falsely accusing me of stuff. Yes, it's the worst
thing in the world. Can you imagine, Baron? Well, we
can because our kids had to go through that hell
too when they were little, So we know who they are.
But here's what really upsets me. They're more angry people
(09:56):
are left wing media like ms, DNC and CNN, AB, NBCCBS.
They seem to be more upset at Republicans calling it
out than the actual assassination attempt against President Trump. If
that doesn't speak directly to the core to your soul
(10:17):
of who you are and recognizing that we are in
a spiritual fight, that I do think that we're up
against evil, or at least people who have been completely
corrupted by evil. It's hard to be that callous towards
someone after they barely survived with their lives. Can you
(10:41):
imagine being Milania or Baron, or Down or Eric or
Evanka or Tiffany watching their father get shot down on TV?
I mean, the only thing that we saw for a
while was him grabbing his ear and going down. But
then he stood up, raises his fist and said fight, fight, fight,
(11:01):
and that I don't really Trump's speech was amazing for
a lot a lot of reasons last night. He was unifying,
his tone was right. You could tell he was deeply affected.
He said he didn't want to be you know, didn't
want to be successful, or didn't want to work for
just fifty percent of Americans, who wanted to work for
all Americans. That what you saw last night was a
(11:24):
general election speech. The only time he mentioned Biden was
one singular time, and it was when he went off script.
Trump did a, you know, a phenomenal job last night.
But what I think people will remember about last about
these last weeks, are the images of Trump going grabbing
(11:44):
his ear and going down, and then all of the world,
all of America, all of the world, not knowing whether
he was alive or dead. And then he stands up
with blood all over his face and he pumps his fist,
and we were there, We saw it, We heard that
crowd react. It was unbelievable to just be a part of.
(12:09):
And again, like, I'm glad President Trump talked about Corey,
the firefighter who lost his life and the others who
were wounded as well. Because I've been struggling, I feel
like I've kind of got to be more careful with
my words, you know, saying that it feels like God
was out there, there was a guardian angel out there.
I've said this all week, but I mean, clearly, Corey's
(12:32):
family doesn't feel that way. I guarantee you they don't.
Clearly those who are wounded maybe they feel that way.
Maybe they don't, but it was People are going to
remember Trump standing up like that, getting shot down and
then standing up. And if you don't believe me, because listen,
(12:57):
Chenk Hunger, host of the Young Turks aka A the
Young Turds. As radical leftists as you can as you
can get, like crazy looney tune leftist. He said, Okay,
that was pretty bad ass. Or how about Mark Zuckerberg.
Did you hear what he had to say? Mark Zuckerberg,
the guy that spent you know, five hundred billion dollars
in zucker Bucks, basically private funded election and election insurance
(13:25):
for the Democrats. Did you see what Mark Zuckerberg said
about this? Listen to this.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
I've done some stuff personally in the past. I'm not
planning on doing that this time, and that includes, you know,
not endorsing either of the candidates. Now, look, I mean
there's obviously a lot of crazy stuff going on in
the world. I mean the historic events over the last
like over the weekend, and I mean a personal note,
it's yeah, I mean, seeing Donald Trump get get up
(13:50):
after getting shot in the face and pump his fist
in the air with the American flag is one of
the most badass things I've ever seen in my life.
But but look, I mean it's you know, as and
I think look at some level, as an American, it's
like hard to not get kind of emotional about that
(14:10):
spirit and that fight. And I think that that's why
a lot of people like the guy.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
That should tell you something, Mark Zuckerberg, the guy I
could pull up a dozen images of the guy testifying
on the hill where he looks like an alien, like
some sort of robot like like like barely looks like
super male skin like don't even know if the guy's alive,
(14:42):
but he looks like he's a robot. But you see
Mark Zuckerberg in that clip, and he's even talking about
getting emotional. And this is the guy that was part
of the wealthy cabal of secret powerful people that work
against Donald Trump. He saying it made him emotional. This
(15:03):
is why I say, what people will remember, I mean,
the convention was amazing, but what people will will remember
were those images of Donald Trump at that rally. I mean,
Donald Trump was was on point last night. I mean,
he was so funny that this is like like what
(15:24):
Dana White says that Trump is the funniest guy he's
ever met, Like that that doesn't surprise me or Melanie
at all. And when and Dana White reads that text
message about Donald Trump like as classy and as polite
as you can get, He's like, look, essentially I'm paraphrasing.
I wish I had here that I could read, but
he says basically, look, I know you're on vacation, but
(15:45):
and you're with your family, but that I need to
communicate to you all that that's the Donald Trump that
that we know right like when we when we met
him for the very first time. Well, first of all,
I he took an immediate liking to you, I'm the
run running for office. And no, I don't mean that
(16:07):
in a negative way. He's just old school, like you know, classy,
pull in the chair out for the woman as he
sits down, like old school in that way, he like
walks her over, have a seat? Can I get you
something to eat? Can I get you something to drink?
Let's get you You're like, no, thank you, Like let
this get her something to drinke and like I'm the
one running for office. But he's being so charitable and
(16:29):
so hospitable. It's how he's wired. And I've told many
of you all before, like the media doesn't show that
side of him, and what the media has done to
this family is just a travesty. It's a tragedy really
and not showing you that side of him. But the
cool thing about the rally that we did not the rally,
(16:53):
the cool thing about the convention that we did not
have in twenty twenty was that image of Donald Trump
in the crowd. So the media doesn't show you that.
And let's be honest, Donald Trump isn't great at showing that.
He's not great at showing that side of himself either,
which way whatever. Some people are just like that, you know.
(17:14):
But you look at those candid moments of Trump with
his family, you know, with his with his actual children,
engaging with them, giving them hugs, standing next to them,
like his body language, his smiles, like watching how Donald
Trump was reacting to kai speaking. You could see on
his face didn't even have to say a word to smile.
(17:36):
He was. He was beaming with pride for his granddaughter.
It was her first political speech, by the way, which
she did an amazing job. You could see the love
in his eyes. Now you see images of Donald Trump
with his grandkids sitting on his lap. I am telling
you we did not have that in twenty twenty. And
I know I spoke at the convention in prime time
on opening night, eight o'clock on opening night, like me,
(17:59):
no political experienced like Jack Ass, Sean Parnell from Western Pennsylvania.
But it was like it was like a remote convention.
So it was like everybody was like COVID crazy and
there was no crowd, so you didn't get to see
the human interaction, and that really helped Joe Biden, especially
when you consider that they hot they hid the animated
(18:20):
corpse in the basement for the entire election. But this convention,
of course, it was top notch and in a lot
of ways, but it showed It showed you a side
of Donald Trump in America doesn't often see. And then
of course there was this spectacle of it all with
hal Cogan. I grew up loving Hal Cogan, my guy,
(18:41):
Like if I'll be a real American and like body
slamming Andre the Giant, like I mean, I loved Hall Cogin,
So I mean, obviously, course I'm a little bit biased.
But the quote that's is absolutely hysterical, and I think
it just epitomizes Trump. Trump is up on stage, He's
like Haul Cogan, watassa one hundred and fifty man out
(19:01):
of the ring and into the crowd. What a beautiful
thing that was, isn't he beautiful? Folks? Eyes returned to
the teleprompter. The specter of war looms over Taiwan. That's
just how he That's just how Trump is. You know,
you know who else did an amazing job during the convention.
(19:21):
And I know I've talked a lot about the security
of the rally and everything else, but got to talk
about the convention a little bit because I think there
were some real highlights there. I thought Donald Trump Junior,
and I've known him for a while now, I've been
on the stage with him before speaking, he did an
exceptional job up there. I thought his composure, his tone,
(19:44):
his tenor his delivery of the speech was great. I'm
going to highlight this piece for you so you can
get a sense of what I'm talking about and why
this approach to attacking the radical left and the deep
state is just so important.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
Listen, we won't ever forget the lies from have to
wing politicians, from their allies in the media. When you
hear them in a row, you fully understand the extent
they have gone to divide this great nation. They lied
about Russia collusion. They lied about Hunter's laptop. They lied
(20:19):
about Joe Biden's fitness for office. They lied about the
border being secure, They lied about inflation being transitory. They
lied about how they would safely withdraw from Afghanistan. They
lied about Biden being a quote moderate, and they told
(20:45):
one NonStop lie after another about my father. But they
could only run away from reality for so long. All
hell has broken loose in America and it's impossible to
hide an.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
So he did a great job. His speech was fantastic.
But anyone who listening watching an elected official, an elected official,
someone running for office, part of your narrative, whether local, state,
or federal, has got to be not just pointing out
(21:31):
the lies of your opponent, not just projecting a vision
for the people that you desire to represent. That stuff
is important. You've got to have that, of course you do,
but you have also got to tie that messaging to
all of the lies that we've been told for the
last eight or nine years. Folks, I think that Americans
(22:00):
finally waking up. Not all of them, but I think
that the vast majority of America is starting to question
the things that they see on the media. I think
a lot of this was made possible through Biden's debate performance.
Were just three weeks prior, they were like, he's great,
(22:23):
he's sharp, Oh, fifty years of Washington. These Republicans, it's
just a conspiracy theory. These are just cheaf bakes. Biden's wise,
He's just wise. And that wisdom is going to help
America on the world stage. No, he doesn't shit his
pants in front of world leaders. Are you kidding me?
(22:45):
He definitely doesn't do that. He definitely should. Just my god,
he definitely does. And listen, I'm not even like it's
like I feel bad like I don't. It's not about
like I don't I feel bad like for the guy.
(23:06):
He's getting older, but he's such a terrible, terrible, terrible,
terrible person. Everybody that surrounds him are terrible people. Listen.
The guy doesn't give a damn about you. He doesn't
care about your children, he doesn't care about your children's children,
(23:27):
doesn't care about this country. Otherwise he wouldn't have sold
it out for his entire career. Let's not feel I'm
not saying that you will, but I'm just generally speaking,
let's not feel bad for Joe Biden. Again. I'm tired
of the Party of Gentlemen losers. But Joe Biden showed
(23:52):
the world on that debate stage that he doesn't have
it up here. And the American people, I think, open
their eyes, even people, well, listen, you want to know
how you know the American people open their eyes just
by how the Democrats have been reacting. This is the
(24:12):
Democrats almost relentless calls and pushes. This is the third
push now we're going into to try to get Biden
out of the race. The greatest indication that we have
that the American people finally have had the scales removed
from their eyes in mass is the panic. The panic
(24:34):
at the heart of the Democrat Party right now. They
are tearing each other apart because the wheels are falling
off of the train, the bus, the train coming apart
at the seams. So you know, I mean, obviously that's
reflected in the polling, but more people see the truth
today than ever before, which is why the Democrats are
(24:56):
trying to change things up. And never forget, if Joe
Biden was annihilating Donald Trump up by ten in every
swing state, not a single Democrat would be saying a thing.
It wouldn't be saying a word what it would.
Speaker 4 (25:16):
Yeah, they would be, So we'd be back to an
f y if you don't agree. Joe Biden's the best
version of Joe Biden. He's the smartest man in the world.
Like he's a nuclear physicist. Didn't you know he was?
Speaker 1 (25:32):
He was the first man on the moon, like head
the lots. And he says, you know, while we're on
Joe Biden's lives, you know, everyone gives Trump ship about
the Hannibal Lecter thing. He's like, oh, the late great
Hannibal Lecter. He's like, if you ever seen Trump's on
the stage at the RNC in primetime, you ever see
(25:52):
the movie Silence of the Lambs, the late great Hannibal Lector,
It's like, so it's just, oh, yeah, we'd love to
have you for dinner, Like it's so funny, and like
the media gives him shit about that. Right, But Joe
Biden actually said his uncle was eaten by cannibals in
World War Two? How have we not made more? How
(26:16):
have we not made more of this? I mean, not
only was his pilot not a gunner? Not only not
only was his cousin not a gunner? Right? He said
he was a gunner or a pilot. I don't know,
he was like a mechanic, which whatever. I mean, Hey,
everyone serves in their own way. That's not even the
most egregious thing. Oh his uncle, his uncle, uncle Josie
(26:38):
or whatever his name is, uncle Bozy is do you
think he has an uncle named Bosie. I don't know,
but so I guess like nothing of what he said
about his uncle Bozie being a pilot or a gunner.
He's basically a mechanic. The plane wasn't shot down, the
plane crashed. You know, God, it's compelling and of itself.
Why the need to make up a lot and then
(27:00):
go overboard and say he was eaten by cannibals?
Speaker 5 (27:04):
And if our president said his uncle was eaten by
cannibals during World War two, and everybody has given Trump
shit for making a joke about Hannibal Lecter.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
Anyway, I don't even the people. People are waking up.
We know that people are waking up because the Democrats
are panicking. We're gonna get into this behind the scenes push.
I've got sources behind that. I've been in contact with
some people that have contacts behind the scenes in the
Democrat Party. We're gonna get into this whole Biden thing again.
(27:41):
Should he stay or should he go? You know where
I fall on this, and I'm gonna tell you why
here in a second. Okay, So, nine additional Democrat members
of Congress have now called on Biden to drop out
of the race as of today. This comes as you know,
crazy Nancy Pelosi leaking that she thinks that Biden can't win.
(28:03):
From crying Chuck Schumer leaking out that he thinks that
Biden can't win. Oh publicly, Oh, they think he's great,
but they're leaking out that they think he can't win.
Here's the thing interesting thing about these leaks. Not enough
people have made this point. In fact, the narrative in
the media right now is that, well, the Biden family,
(28:24):
they're seriously talking to Joe about maybe a pathway out
of this race. They're reflecting on their spot and where
they are presently well. And I mean there are even
some reports saying that Biden's going to step aside altogether,
and it could come as early as as early as Sunday.
(28:46):
But if that were true, I mean, looking it might be.
The Democrats are all many authoritarians, they have, they can,
They're a bunch of commy losers, so anything's possible. But
I've just been why why would you have to leak
that Biden sucks, that Biden can't win, that Biden's getting
(29:08):
annihil Why would you have to leak if you were
behind the scenes he was amiable to the process. If
behind the scenes Biden was like, Okay, I agree, I
can't handle this. I agree I'm going to lose. Let's
say Biden says behind the scenes that I'm going to
step down. Would any Democrat be leaking anything to the media.
(29:33):
Would you still have nine Democrat members of Congress calling
on Biden to drop out today? Would there be any
need to leak to the media at all if Biden
said he was going to drop out already, which was
reported yesterday as we were alive on this show, No,
(29:53):
absolutely not. They wouldn't be leaking anything. Joe Biden would
if if he had decided to drop out, Joe Biden
would give We'd get a notification Biden's going to give
a national address on Sunday. Boom, it would be announced,
and I'm appointing Kamala, right, I want my delegates to
(30:13):
go to Kama. That's how it would be. It would
be orderly, it would be precise. There would be no leaking.
The leaking is your indication that Joe Biden is entrenched.
The leaking is your indication that he ain't going anywhere.
I mean, look, I could be wrong, but I've done
this before. I know how these assholes operate. A whole
(30:36):
lot of people do shows like this, have never actually
had their name on a ballot. They don't know how
these people knight fight behind the scenes, but I do so. Listen,
people in the media who've been speculating about this, they
taught they confused power with influence. People talk about Barack
(30:58):
Obama and Hillary Clinton. I've talked about this too. They
don't Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton. They're leaders in the Democrat Party,
is no question about it. They have enormous influence in
the Democrat Party. And yeah, they got some power here
and there as it pertains to maybe like the political
process and and things like that, but their power pales
(31:18):
in comparison to Joe Biden. Right now, Joe Biden has actual,
what I like to call fu power. Joe Biden has,
let me just say it like this, Joe Biden now
knows that Barack Obama, probably even Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi,
(31:40):
Chuck Schumer are all opposed to him. Now, if you're
if you think you're doing a good job, and you're
the most powerful person on the face of the planet,
how do you respond to that? I mean, honestly, think
about this, I would look at it. You're Joe Biden.
(32:05):
The only job that you've known your entire life is
in Washington being a slimy, gross politician that has leveraged
his position for sweetheart deals for his family to enrich himself.
He's been a sleeves ball his entire career. All he knows.
(32:25):
It's the only form of human capital that he has.
It's all he's ever known. And so now he's the
most powerful man on earth. I mean, I think he's
an illegitimate president. I mean, he one lost in twenty twenty.
But my point is he's in the oval office. He's
the most powerful man on earth. Now he knows that
(32:46):
Obama and Clinton and Pelosi and Schumer are opposed to him.
And this, by the way, is why Pelosi and Schumer
leak so they can throw their hands up and say what,
oh no, no, no, this isn't true. It's not actually
them on camera saying it. Because if it was them
on camera saying it, then they'd be out in the open.
(33:07):
Then Joe Biden would definitely know. But believe me, he knows.
Now you think that's gonna make him more likely to
get out of the race. Or you think that's gonna
entrance his position even further because Joe Biden, I mean, look,
he's down in the polls, but let's be honest with
(33:29):
each other. With the Democrat machine that they have behind them,
they could elect to turn up. And the polls are
bad for Democrats. I mean, there's no doubt about that,
that Joe Biden is pulling his wayward. Trump is up.
I mean, there's no doubt about it. But anything can happen.
(33:49):
And so we got the news last night in the
show that Joe Biden is out. He said he's stepping aside.
And what did I tell you all? Keep your powder dry?
These Democrats play smoking mirrors games in the media better
than just about anybody else. The reason is is because
they're braided together with the media. And what I mean
(34:13):
by that is not only will the media elevate their
propaganda breathlessly. If they elevate propaganda breathlessly, that can also
be used to your advantage. Right, So, most of the
people who are leaking are in opposition to Biden staying in,
which means that if they're in opposition to something in
(34:35):
opposition to Biden's stance of him saying I'm in you
see my point. So these Democrats, they use the media
to leak and weaponize it against their enemies better than
just about anybody else. And so said to you all
last night, keep your powder dry. In this from the
Biden campaign just a couple hours ago, listen, have some breaking.
Speaker 6 (34:58):
News Brian that I want to get to starting President Biden.
And this is a statement that's just out coming over
the Reuyters wires for US. Biden says he looks forward
to getting back on the campaign trail next week, and
he says Donald Trump's dark vision is not who we
are as Americans. It's not much of a statement, but
it is notable because again, there are increasing calls for
(35:20):
him to drop out of the race, including a number
of lawmakers today, five Congress congressman lawmakers and one senator.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
At least you're just joining us talking about Biden. Should
he stay or should he go? And of course I'm
just as stubborn as Joe Biden saying that that. Dude.
I mean, look, you do anything, anything's possible, and Democrats
have lots of power. They can threaten him in a
million different ways. I think he's I think it's I
(35:50):
think he's staying. But in case you're wondering where, Hey,
I am on the road. It's my first show, my
very first remote show. No, this is not a hostage video. No,
Commander Mellie City right here. No, she's not holding me hostage,
just doing a show. So if you could help us
out with our first remote show, smash that little green
thumb beneath the video that like button. Tell your family
(36:11):
and your friends to subscribe to Battleground Live because that helps.
I drove seven hours with my five children and I
was like, we got to get to the hotel. We
got to get to the hotel so I can set
things up so I can talk to the Battle crew
about this crazy night last night. So Donald Trump brings
the house down. Joe Biden is under enormous pressure to
back out of the race. Joe Biden saying he's staying
(36:34):
in the race. Chris Coons, who is his campaign chair,
senator from Delaware, came out and said this, I fully
support the president. He's told me that he's in it
to win it. I'm with him one hundred percent because
I know he can beat Trump just like he did
last time. And listen, I have to tell you like,
(36:57):
who do the Democrats have. I mean, let's be honest here,
Like he's right, I mean, I think that Joe Biden,
even though he's gone, does give the Democrats their best shot.
And at this point in the game, you think that,
I mean, Pennsylvania the most important swing state in the nation,
sixty days away from early voting, and so you think
(37:17):
that it would just be easy to switch to somebody else.
Kamala is really your only shot. Nobody wants to be
Kamala's number two. Believe me, Gavin Newsom, Jos Shapiro, Gretcham Whitmer,
do not want to be number two to Kamala, who
will likely lose, and that kind of brands them as
a loser going into twenty twenty eight. It's much easier
for all of these people to arrive like conquering heroes.
(37:39):
And believe me, Gretchen Whitmer, Gavin Newsom, Josh Shapiro, I
don't think they want to run against Trump again. It's
easier to run in twenty twenty eight when Trump is
not on the ballot, when you're going against somebody who
hasn't been tested nationally. So much about politics is about
timing and having the right political instinct, which is ironic
(38:03):
because most politicians that are in Washington have the most
horrible political instinct. They're just so so stupid when it
comes to this stuff. But timing is everything, and so
people that are shrewd politicians like Newsome, Witmers, and especially Shapiro.
Especially Shapiro, he wants nothing to do with Donald Trump.
(38:26):
I guarantee you trust me on that one. All right,
So let's let's take a break and let's shift gears,
and let's get into this new info on the assassination
attempt on Trump. I saw something that I actually Commander
(38:47):
Melanie flagged for me as we were driving. And it's this.
I don't know if you've heard this, but new former
CIA analyst Gail Helt suggests Donald Trump set up his
own assassination attempt. Helt, who worked for the agency for
eleven years, worked for the agency for eleven years, suggested
(39:10):
that suggested Trump set up a failed hit because he's
desperate to stay out of prison. And I quote Trump
was hit with a bullet because he's desperate to stay
out of prison. I mean, so, I guess Helt is
suggesting that Trump magically turned his head just in time
(39:32):
to save him from an assassin's bullet. You see what
you see why people think there's more to this than
meets the eye. I mean, I things were so negligent,
things were so bad, it's hard. It's hard for me
(39:52):
to imagine that everything that they did was wrong from
top to bottom. They didn't just make one mistake, they
made every mis state the Secret Service, you know, and
it came out yesterday, Josh or Josh Holly today rather
put out a statement saying that most of the people
on the ground that day weren't even Secret Service agents.
They were Department of Homeland Security agents. Told you this
(40:13):
a couple of days ago, so they weren't even really
trained to do the job adequately. And they're all these
theories about second shooters. And I've told you before, folks,
and I'll say it again. I was operating under the
assumption that there were two shooters, but only because that
was worst case scenario. And when you're in combat, when
(40:33):
you're under fire' that's how you operate. You operate under
worst case scenario. But when you have CIA directors, i'm sorry,
CIA analysts coming out and saying crazy shit like that,
do you think it makes it more or less likely
(40:54):
that people have conspiracy theories. Do you think it makes
it more or less likely that people think the CIA
actually orchestrated the entire thing. I'm not saying that they did,
but well, conspiracy theories. That's the conspiracy theory. Is the conspiracy. Yeah,
and that's what we always say, Oh yeah, COVID, Oh yeah,
COVID definitely didn't listen. You're a conspiracy theorist. People for
(41:16):
thinking that COVID came from the Wuhan virology clinic that
just so specializes on coronaviruses, that's a crazy conspiracy theory.
It makes it's much more likely that some crazy Chinese
guy ate bat brains and like that. And so here
you have somebody this is in the CIA. He's saying
that Trump set it up, which is an insane conspiracy theory. Oh,
(41:38):
by the way, she worked for the CIA. But these
are the people that are working at these agencies that
are creating helping to create things like the Steele dossier.
I'm circling back to this. You see how this show
is come in full circle. Now the media is out
there saying they, oh, it's so disconcerted, so disconcerting, that
(42:03):
the Republicans keep saying they how dare they say they
not about the assassination attempt itself, that they don't give
a shit about that? Just how dare they say they
Maybe the CIA analyst who's saying that Trump set up
the assassination attempt because he wants to stay out of
prison is the they that were referring to you massive dipshits.
(42:30):
I'm sorry, I mean, Melie's over here laughing it me.
But as if things weren't crazy enough, America First Legal,
which is done the legal arm of Donald Trump, I mean,
on the on the political side of things, Biden's Secret
Service has denied a freedom of information request by America
(42:52):
First Legal following the assassination attempt on Donald Trump. So
the Secret Service, the Secret Service is claiming that there's
not any urgency and denied to the American people, denied
it to the American people that they even have a
right to know about any of this stuff in the
first place. I would argue that thirty thousand plus people
at that Butler County rally have a right to know
(43:13):
everything that went down. What about the families that lost
lost What of Corey's family? Do you think they have
a right to know what happened? What about the Trumps?
What about Milania? Like, don't you think that they have
a right to know? Listen, I told you three days
(43:35):
ago the United States Secret Service director out there saying
that it was a slope roof and it was too dangerous. Oh,
it's local law enforcements. For I knew right then that
this was there was some sort of a cover up,
because when seemingly intelligent people say purposeful, stupid things, you
(43:57):
know there's corruption at play somewhere. And if the Secret
Service is denying a Foyer request for just to provide
a level of transparency to the American people, what does
that tell you? And I saw something and many of
all maybe seen this video, But Senator Barrosso, who I've met,
is actually from Pennsylvania. Did you know that Senator Barrasso is.
(44:22):
He's from Wyoming, Wyoming. It's just just one of the
best US senators that we have. If you don't know him,
check him out. He's like, really, he's amazing. But I
saw him chasing down the US Secret Service director at
the Republican National Convention. It is worth watching, listening to
because every Republican needs to approach what we're going through
(44:47):
right now with this level of fire. Go ahead and
listen to this.
Speaker 7 (45:00):
It's kind of hard to hear answer questions and then
we run out question and get had every one of
ours have questions and.
Speaker 1 (45:12):
Wanted you didn't get plenty of responding, very disappointed. We
have called I have called for your resignation, John, and
I will starting our questions. Yeah, I mean, like, and
here's the cra so it's hard to hear, so I
just cut the sound. But the media is outraged that
(45:32):
he did this. Oh Brett Brett Hume, Well tell you
those of Mike does Mike little senator looked good trasure
to heard that, like, yes, it does.
Speaker 8 (45:43):
This is the first time I saw it, and I
know I know Pardy here, but oh my gosh, I
thought it was a lot more fiery than that.
Speaker 1 (45:49):
That was nothing. So so this is interesting because Commander
Melanie watched the media coverage and the reaction of how
dare these U S Senators even ask this woman question
in the manner that they did at they RN see
she hadn't seen the video until just now, and her
reaction is that is that that's what has the media's
pants and a bunch panties and a bunch come on.
(46:16):
I mean, it's absolutely unbelievable. And again that tells you
that there's something else going on here. That tells you
that there's something else going on. So I'm going to
show you this breakdown of I think the best breakdown
that we have to date, a visual breakdown of, and
(46:37):
there's an actullent audio breakdown for our friends who are
listening of the assassination attempt. I want you to see it.
I want you to hear it. Okay, so you know
my producer David, who by the way, is helping me
out today in a huge he's been a huge help
for me today doing the remote show and helping me
get set up. But he said, he sent me a
text message said people are saying the bandage over t
(47:00):
ear is unnecessary. And he's right, Texas, by the people
say the bandage over the year is unnecessary and these
are the same ass clowns that I add to the
word ass clowns, But these are the same ass clowns
who wore a mask everywhere for three straight years. I mean,
he's exactly right, it is so so true. But so
check this out. I want to show you this breakdown
(47:21):
of this assassination attempt. I think it's the best one yet.
I've been looking at all of these folks because I
was there. You know, I saw it, I witnessed us,
I know the flow of events. So I've been waiting
for recreation like this to try to give me a
sense of a better understanding of what happened. And to me,
this is the best one yet. So watch listen.
Speaker 8 (47:43):
This is a three D illustration of how many bullets
are fired and their trajectory that struck three people at
the Trump rally on July thirteenth, twenty twenty four. This
is the area we're going to focus in on. Here
you can see the three victims that were injured by
gun and where they were standing in the bleachers.
Speaker 1 (48:02):
So you see so you see Trump there in the
middle of the stage. Victims are highlighted. You see the cranes,
everything like that. The counter sniper teams were on the
building behind President Trump.
Speaker 8 (48:12):
We're going to turn around and demonstrate exactly where these
bullets came from. This model presents Thomas Crooks. His position
could be seen here in this image, which illustrates exactly
where he was turning around we can see the path
of all the bullets that were fired from this location.
I placed a ten foot red disc downrange to represent
what an average shooter could hit easily. Now, let's take
(48:36):
a look at this first shot fired coming from our
key location. Bullet won greetes President Trump's ear. This is
the same bullet that hits a spectator in the stands.
We know this through video evidence. As President Trump is talking,
the first shot rings out just after he says, take
a look at what happened something.
Speaker 1 (48:55):
Take a look at what happens.
Speaker 8 (48:58):
We can see the vapor trail of a bullet strike,
which is the same ule that struck President Trump's ear
a split second earlier. And this video is this location
here back at the podium, President Trump a shot and
grabbed his ear, falling to the ground as more shots
rang out. In total, there were seven or eight shots.
So let's rewind and watch this at regular speed.
Speaker 1 (49:20):
Take a look at what happened. Who longs and dropped
therapaus the bottom.
Speaker 8 (49:31):
With all that gun fired, it's easy to understand how
these spectators were injured even though they were not the target,
including the sole spectator who lost his life.
Speaker 1 (49:39):
That day, Corey says where he was standing. You see
how this works, folks. So well, here let's finish the video. Well, actually,
I want you to look at this. Those bullets you
(50:01):
see where those those bottom those black, So this is
where the shooter is. The two black lines, the trajectory
of those bullets. They they went right over our position,
directly over where we were standing. So you could see
the black lines there to the right. Folks that those
were the lowest shots out there. They That's why I
(50:23):
told you I could hear them crack over our head.
It was those bullets. And also I'm trying, I'm trying
to find the frame where you can see because people
were saying, you know how I thought that there was
another shooter, right and then because I saw a hydraulic
line snap on the construction vehicle, Well you can see
(50:44):
the trajectory of the first round that hit President Trump's ear,
hit this man in the abdomen, and severed the hydraulic
line on that truck, which is why you saw the
smoke on that side. And and that's why you saw
the hydraulic line snap. And so it this is a
remarkable videt. Whoever put this together did a phenomenal job
of actually recreating the events that happened that day. But
(51:07):
I hope that it gives you all a better sense
and understanding and maybe even a sense of It'll never closure.
If somebody that loves this country and appreciates President Trump
and all that he's been through, it's probably not something
It's probably something that you'll remember for the rest of
your lives. I'm looking at some of the comments. I'm seeing,
(51:28):
you know, little fuzz inside job. Listen and fire for
effect counted eight shots? So what did I tell you? Right? Like,
so you want to know the crazy thing about that
fire for effect? I I it's so crazy because I'm
talking about I pieced all this together over the last week.
(51:48):
I lived it. So you're probably wondering, like, well, why
the hell do you have to piece it together? Because
when something like this happens, like, okay, let me talk
about an Afghanistan. We went through all this training and
in Afghanistan we were tested by fire, and that become
a way a way of life for us. And as
(52:10):
that became a way of life for us, getting shot at,
getting ambush, being under sniper fire, being under artillery fire,
it becomes almost a part of your DNA to scan
for threats and react to things. And in that moment,
the training just completely took over. I just reacted and
did exactly how I'd been trained in combat and been combat.
I haven't been in combat for almost eighteen years. But
(52:31):
it came back in a second and instantly it said.
In the moment I turned to Melanie, I'm like, okay,
there are eight shots. And I'm always counting the shots
because if you're carrying a standard thirty round magazine, you
know the fire's thirty rounds. Well, hey, it's a good
time to move. You know he's going to be changing
out magazines, right, So I'm always trying to count the
amount of shots, but fire for effect, exactly right, you
(52:51):
count eight shots. I think there were eight shots as well.
But anyways, folks, I let me tell you, oh yeah,
look at Jara saying the first bullet that goes by
your head. You know exactly what it is. It happened
to me hunting when I was a kid. Three in
a row. I was terrified to move. That's exactly right.
Sounds like a big cracking noise. Sounds like somebody is
(53:11):
right over your head cracking with a whip. It's that loud.
The bullets that cracked over Melanie in my our heads
like they were a little higher, so it just sounded
like a like a it was a crack. It wasn't
as loud, but you could still hear them whizzing right
over our heads. But anyways, folks, listen, I I want
(53:32):
to tell you all thank you for being with me
this week. I mean, the show is is is growing,
and it's growing fast, and I know, like, oh, Patriot fan,
I'll paste a link to that video so that all
of you can access it on my locals. Okay, I'll paste.
(53:53):
I'll get that posted over there on locals for you guys,
so you guys can watch that. But it's one of
the things like this was an impromptu show. I was
very very committed to getting out here and doing this
show and being there with you all because you know,
I think br asked me hey with fans, hey family first,
and absolutely you're right. And I know that that Melanie said,
(54:18):
like coming out here to celebrate her dad's seventy fifth birthday.
You know, I take very seriously the stuff that Melanie
says to me, and you know, she doesn't talk like
this very often. But she's like, our family really needs
this break, and she's exactly right. But I appreciate you
all being here with me as we navigated through all
(54:39):
this craziness. This isn't like a poor me thing. I
mean that. I you know, we're good to go, But
thank you. When I say that this is your show,
I mean it. When I'm committed to doing a show,
even out here on the road looks like a hostage video, Like,
I don't care what it looks like. I want to
make sure that we're that we're bringing the show to you,
you know. Like so when you say, hey, take family first,
(55:03):
I kind of look at the battle crew, the audience,
the people who listen to the show so loyally. I
I you are part of the family. And now you
think that sounds cheesy all you want, but it's how
I really feel. Right Like we were super you know,
we were super committed to getting this set up here
in the hotel and hoped and prayed that it would
work out, and it did. But we are very very
(55:25):
grateful for you. We really are. So want you all
to have a great weekend with your family. Seriously, have
a great weekend. Pray for President Trump pray for our country.

you want to say goodbye.
Warning you're a about to enter the arena and join
the Battle to Save America with your host, Sean Parnell.
Good evening, America. No, this is not a hostage video.
This is Battleground Live. This is my very first remote show,
(00:26):
So say a prayer for good Internet. We're in a
condo hotel room, Fort Parnell. Commander Melanie, who is the
track commander, sitting shotgun the whole way, and all five
kids made the trek out to Delaware to not to
visit Joe Biden, although we are right down the road
(00:47):
from that animated corpse as they desperately try to dip
him in the Lazarus pit. No, we came to visit
my father in law. It's his seventy fifth birthday today,
so to say that it was chaos getting here might
be a little bit of an understatement. And no, I'm
not even talking about the kids. The kids were actually
pretty great. Commander. I've got my producer extraordinaire sitting shotgun
(01:11):
with me right now. She's not gonna come on camera,
even though I've asked her many times to do so.
But Melanie, Commander Melanie is sitting right here. I'm gesturing
off camera. But we got here okay, and the kids
were really good, and I remember I was like talking,
you know when we're in the car. You know, I'm
a dad, It's my most important job in the entire world.
(01:31):
And so Madonna, like a prayer came on and I
was singing like a prayer and all the kids were
looking at me like I was crazy, and I said,
I am not ashamed to sing the girl parts to
any song. I don't care, and almost universally from the
back seat was everybody was like, we know, but we
(01:54):
are here, and you know, another thing. So we're like,
get a call from Melanie's The kids call him Poppy,
but you get a call from Melanie's dad, and he's like, oh,
you guys might get here before me. If you get
here about noon, I might not be back. I just
got some business attend to do. You know what business
that was the guy jumped out of a plane this morning,
(02:17):
and we thought it might be like, hey, because he
was talking about George hw Bush jumping out of an
airplane on his birthday like every year, like jumping out
of an airplane like on his ninetieth birthday. And you
could tell even back then, just a couple of weeks
ago that the wheels were turning a little bit. So yeah,
seventy fifth birthday jumps out of a freaking airplane today.
(02:38):
Didn't tell any of us, but hey, kudos and happy
birthday to Sandy aka Poppy, my father in law, Melanie's father.
You know, we love you and it's great to be
down here with you. So, as I was planning in
the show, obviously trying to scramble to plan the show,
my youngest son Evan, I was like, right here, like
(02:59):
right here with me. He's down, he's down playing right now,
down at the beach or something, and I'm like, okay,
So I sit down. I'm like, okay, now, seven hour drive. Now,
what am I going to talk about? And that was
like thirty minutes ago, And of course I was keeping
up on the news cycle last night. We're going to
talk about President Trump's speech, We're going to talk about
(03:19):
the Democrats ratcheting up pressure on Biden. I'm gonna give
you all the latest, all the latest news on this
assassination attempt on President Trump today and also stuff that
I am hearing from sources on the inside, secret Service
agents that I've known for a very very long time
who are very unhappy with the situation. So all that
ahead and more on Battleground Live from Ceed to Shining Sea.
(03:40):
I've been forgetting this the last couple of days. You know,
this is kind of like my shtick from Ceda, Shining
Sea and everybody in between. Welcome patriots to the battle crew.
Hopefully the quality of the show is okay. But as
I'm planning the show, I'm talking to my youngest son, Evan,
who's super interested in all of this. We kind of
got like a remote setup and he's like, I'm like,
(04:01):
so what am I? What am I going to talk about?
And Evan is my last child, our last child that
still has like a kid voice or a baby voice.
He's like, Dad, just talk about Trump's speech. You just
talk about Trump's speech, calls him Trump. I'm like, you
(04:22):
know what, well, that's a great idea. So yeah, we're
going to talk about Trump's speech right off the top
and the moment that we're in here, so Trump at
the RNC yesterday. I have to tell you all, folks,
I on a very very serious note, this last week
has affected me in a really really strange way. And
(04:44):
you can talk to Commander Melanie about it. But I
have been not struggling with it. That's the wrong word.
It's not about getting shot, and I've been shot at many, many,
many many times. Like I don't care about that, But
it was the idea of of losing somebody that like
my wife, who's there, who is exposed because of the
(05:06):
negligence of the United States Secret Service. And then add
to that the fact that the United States Secret Service
is now trying to blame local law enforcement. And I
know because I know all the members of the local
law enforcement community in and around western Pennsylvania. These guys
just talking to them, I'm telling you they were tasked
(05:26):
with what they call the outer court on just directing traffic,
that's it. But when shots rang out or they said
there was a shooter on the roof, these guys hauled
asked to wherever they thought the shooter was running towards
the sound of gunfire. But the question is is why
wasn't that building on lockdown. I mean, we talked about
this a little bit every single day this week, and
(05:48):
we're going to get into that and so much more.
I'm telling you we're going to get into that in
depth here in a little bit. But one of my
very very good friends is let's just say, he specializes
in diplomatic security for ambassadors, and he protected Ambassador Bremer
in both Iraq and Afghanistan in actual combat situations. I
(06:12):
talked to him in depth about that operation, the rally
in Butler last Saturday, and he said that not only
did they get one thing wrong, he said, from top
to bottom, the US Secret Service got everything wrong. So
put a pin in that. We're going to come back
(06:33):
to that. But this week has been really tough for me,
just trying to unpack all of this. And I was
wondering how it was going to be for Donald Trump
because he was a target, right, I mean, he got
hit in a weird, strange way. You know, Donald Trump
(06:56):
and the thirty plus thousand people that were there got
shot at together. Isn't that the strangest thing. And when
that happens, you form a bond with that person, and
you know, it's just the truth. And I was wondering
how he was going to process it. And I've watched
him at the convention this week, and I've noticed just
(07:20):
a change in his comportment, not necessarily how he speaks,
but how he presents himself, not that he doesn't own
a room every time he does. He's still the same
Donald Trump in that way, but there's you can sense,
whether it's on a deeper emotional level, psychological level. I
don't know. I'm not trying to diagnose the guy, but
you can sense that something is changed in him. In
(07:45):
the first twenty five minutes of his speech, I was,
I mean, I found myself getting a little, you know,
emotional in a way because I love this country and
I mean, obviously I'm a Donald Trump guy, but we
(08:06):
almost lost the presumptive Republican nominee. And I've said it
many times, he's the most electric, electrifying political figure in
my lifetime. And it's not even close. And you look
at everything that because the media is all like, well
they who look at so so troubling. So many people
(08:26):
on that stage are saying they tried to kill President Trump.
They they they that's troubling. It's been really upsetting to
me because we all know who they is, right, Chucky Schumer,
like the intelligence community of the six Ways from Sunday
(08:49):
at getting back at yeah, the deep state, unelected bureaucrats,
people that aren't beholden to us, people who are impossible
to fight. We know who they are, right and they
have hated Donald Trump since the moment he came down
the Golden escalator. There's not even been a question they
(09:12):
fabricated intelligence against him. The Steele dossier was completely fake,
with some of the most grotesque false accusations that you
could possibly muster against somebody. Just as an aside, can
you imagine being Millennia? Can you imagine? I mean you
can imagine You've you've been through that with me where
(09:33):
they're falsely accusing me of stuff. Yes, it's the worst
thing in the world. Can you imagine, Baron? Well, we
can because our kids had to go through that hell
too when they were little, So we know who they are.
But here's what really upsets me. They're more angry people
(09:56):
are left wing media like ms, DNC and CNN, AB, NBCCBS.
They seem to be more upset at Republicans calling it
out than the actual assassination attempt against President Trump. If
that doesn't speak directly to the core to your soul
(10:17):
of who you are and recognizing that we are in
a spiritual fight, that I do think that we're up
against evil, or at least people who have been completely
corrupted by evil. It's hard to be that callous towards
someone after they barely survived with their lives. Can you
(10:41):
imagine being Milania or Baron, or Down or Eric or
Evanka or Tiffany watching their father get shot down on TV?
I mean, the only thing that we saw for a
while was him grabbing his ear and going down. But
then he stood up, raises his fist and said fight, fight, fight,
(11:01):
and that I don't really Trump's speech was amazing for
a lot a lot of reasons last night. He was unifying,
his tone was right. You could tell he was deeply affected.
He said he didn't want to be you know, didn't
want to be successful, or didn't want to work for
just fifty percent of Americans, who wanted to work for
all Americans. That what you saw last night was a
(11:24):
general election speech. The only time he mentioned Biden was
one singular time, and it was when he went off script.
Trump did a, you know, a phenomenal job last night.
But what I think people will remember about last about
these last weeks, are the images of Trump going grabbing
(11:44):
his ear and going down, and then all of the world,
all of America, all of the world, not knowing whether
he was alive or dead. And then he stands up
with blood all over his face and he pumps his fist,
and we were there, We saw it, We heard that
crowd react. It was unbelievable to just be a part of.
(12:09):
And again, like, I'm glad President Trump talked about Corey,
the firefighter who lost his life and the others who
were wounded as well. Because I've been struggling, I feel
like I've kind of got to be more careful with
my words, you know, saying that it feels like God
was out there, there was a guardian angel out there.
I've said this all week, but I mean, clearly, Corey's
(12:32):
family doesn't feel that way. I guarantee you they don't.
Clearly those who are wounded maybe they feel that way.
Maybe they don't, but it was People are going to
remember Trump standing up like that, getting shot down and
then standing up. And if you don't believe me, because listen,
(12:57):
Chenk Hunger, host of the Young Turks aka A the
Young Turds. As radical leftists as you can as you
can get, like crazy looney tune leftist. He said, Okay,
that was pretty bad ass. Or how about Mark Zuckerberg.
Did you hear what he had to say? Mark Zuckerberg,
the guy that spent you know, five hundred billion dollars
in zucker Bucks, basically private funded election and election insurance
(13:25):
for the Democrats. Did you see what Mark Zuckerberg said
about this? Listen to this.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
I've done some stuff personally in the past. I'm not
planning on doing that this time, and that includes, you know,
not endorsing either of the candidates. Now, look, I mean
there's obviously a lot of crazy stuff going on in
the world. I mean the historic events over the last
like over the weekend, and I mean a personal note,
it's yeah, I mean, seeing Donald Trump get get up
(13:50):
after getting shot in the face and pump his fist
in the air with the American flag is one of
the most badass things I've ever seen in my life.
But but look, I mean it's you know, as and
I think look at some level, as an American, it's
like hard to not get kind of emotional about that
(14:10):
spirit and that fight. And I think that that's why
a lot of people like the guy.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
That should tell you something, Mark Zuckerberg, the guy I
could pull up a dozen images of the guy testifying
on the hill where he looks like an alien, like
some sort of robot like like like barely looks like
super male skin like don't even know if the guy's alive,
(14:42):
but he looks like he's a robot. But you see
Mark Zuckerberg in that clip, and he's even talking about
getting emotional. And this is the guy that was part
of the wealthy cabal of secret powerful people that work
against Donald Trump. He saying it made him emotional. This
(15:03):
is why I say, what people will remember, I mean,
the convention was amazing, but what people will will remember
were those images of Donald Trump at that rally. I mean,
Donald Trump was was on point last night. I mean,
he was so funny that this is like like what
(15:24):
Dana White says that Trump is the funniest guy he's
ever met, Like that that doesn't surprise me or Melanie
at all. And when and Dana White reads that text
message about Donald Trump like as classy and as polite
as you can get, He's like, look, essentially I'm paraphrasing.
I wish I had here that I could read, but
he says basically, look, I know you're on vacation, but
(15:45):
and you're with your family, but that I need to
communicate to you all that that's the Donald Trump that
that we know right like when we when we met
him for the very first time. Well, first of all,
I he took an immediate liking to you, I'm the
run running for office. And no, I don't mean that
(16:07):
in a negative way. He's just old school, like you know, classy,
pull in the chair out for the woman as he
sits down, like old school in that way, he like
walks her over, have a seat? Can I get you
something to eat? Can I get you something to drink?
Let's get you You're like, no, thank you, Like let
this get her something to drinke and like I'm the
one running for office. But he's being so charitable and
(16:29):
so hospitable. It's how he's wired. And I've told many
of you all before, like the media doesn't show that
side of him, and what the media has done to
this family is just a travesty. It's a tragedy really
and not showing you that side of him. But the
cool thing about the rally that we did not the rally,
(16:53):
the cool thing about the convention that we did not
have in twenty twenty was that image of Donald Trump
in the crowd. So the media doesn't show you that.
And let's be honest, Donald Trump isn't great at showing that.
He's not great at showing that side of himself either,
which way whatever. Some people are just like that, you know.
(17:14):
But you look at those candid moments of Trump with
his family, you know, with his with his actual children,
engaging with them, giving them hugs, standing next to them,
like his body language, his smiles, like watching how Donald
Trump was reacting to kai speaking. You could see on
his face didn't even have to say a word to smile.
(17:36):
He was. He was beaming with pride for his granddaughter.
It was her first political speech, by the way, which
she did an amazing job. You could see the love
in his eyes. Now you see images of Donald Trump
with his grandkids sitting on his lap. I am telling
you we did not have that in twenty twenty. And
I know I spoke at the convention in prime time
on opening night, eight o'clock on opening night, like me,
(17:59):
no political experienced like Jack Ass, Sean Parnell from Western Pennsylvania.
But it was like it was like a remote convention.
So it was like everybody was like COVID crazy and
there was no crowd, so you didn't get to see
the human interaction, and that really helped Joe Biden, especially
when you consider that they hot they hid the animated
(18:20):
corpse in the basement for the entire election. But this convention,
of course, it was top notch and in a lot
of ways, but it showed It showed you a side
of Donald Trump in America doesn't often see. And then
of course there was this spectacle of it all with
hal Cogan. I grew up loving Hal Cogan, my guy,
(18:41):
Like if I'll be a real American and like body
slamming Andre the Giant, like I mean, I loved Hall Cogin,
So I mean, obviously, course I'm a little bit biased.
But the quote that's is absolutely hysterical, and I think
it just epitomizes Trump. Trump is up on stage, He's
like Haul Cogan, watassa one hundred and fifty man out
(19:01):
of the ring and into the crowd. What a beautiful
thing that was, isn't he beautiful? Folks? Eyes returned to
the teleprompter. The specter of war looms over Taiwan. That's
just how he That's just how Trump is. You know,
you know who else did an amazing job during the convention.
(19:21):
And I know I've talked a lot about the security
of the rally and everything else, but got to talk
about the convention a little bit because I think there
were some real highlights there. I thought Donald Trump Junior,
and I've known him for a while now, I've been
on the stage with him before speaking, he did an
exceptional job up there. I thought his composure, his tone,
(19:44):
his tenor his delivery of the speech was great. I'm
going to highlight this piece for you so you can
get a sense of what I'm talking about and why
this approach to attacking the radical left and the deep
state is just so important.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
Listen, we won't ever forget the lies from have to
wing politicians, from their allies in the media. When you
hear them in a row, you fully understand the extent
they have gone to divide this great nation. They lied
about Russia collusion. They lied about Hunter's laptop. They lied
(20:19):
about Joe Biden's fitness for office. They lied about the
border being secure, They lied about inflation being transitory. They
lied about how they would safely withdraw from Afghanistan. They
lied about Biden being a quote moderate, and they told
(20:45):
one NonStop lie after another about my father. But they
could only run away from reality for so long. All
hell has broken loose in America and it's impossible to
hide an.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
So he did a great job. His speech was fantastic.
But anyone who listening watching an elected official, an elected official,
someone running for office, part of your narrative, whether local, state,
or federal, has got to be not just pointing out
(21:31):
the lies of your opponent, not just projecting a vision
for the people that you desire to represent. That stuff
is important. You've got to have that, of course you do,
but you have also got to tie that messaging to
all of the lies that we've been told for the
last eight or nine years. Folks, I think that Americans
(22:00):
finally waking up. Not all of them, but I think
that the vast majority of America is starting to question
the things that they see on the media. I think
a lot of this was made possible through Biden's debate performance.
Were just three weeks prior, they were like, he's great,
(22:23):
he's sharp, Oh, fifty years of Washington. These Republicans, it's
just a conspiracy theory. These are just cheaf bakes. Biden's wise,
He's just wise. And that wisdom is going to help
America on the world stage. No, he doesn't shit his
pants in front of world leaders. Are you kidding me?
(22:45):
He definitely doesn't do that. He definitely should. Just my god,
he definitely does. And listen, I'm not even like it's
like I feel bad like I don't. It's not about
like I don't I feel bad like for the guy.
(23:06):
He's getting older, but he's such a terrible, terrible, terrible,
terrible person. Everybody that surrounds him are terrible people. Listen.
The guy doesn't give a damn about you. He doesn't
care about your children, he doesn't care about your children's children,
(23:27):
doesn't care about this country. Otherwise he wouldn't have sold
it out for his entire career. Let's not feel I'm
not saying that you will, but I'm just generally speaking,
let's not feel bad for Joe Biden. Again. I'm tired
of the Party of Gentlemen losers. But Joe Biden showed
(23:52):
the world on that debate stage that he doesn't have
it up here. And the American people, I think, open
their eyes, even people, well, listen, you want to know
how you know the American people open their eyes just
by how the Democrats have been reacting. This is the
(24:12):
Democrats almost relentless calls and pushes. This is the third
push now we're going into to try to get Biden
out of the race. The greatest indication that we have
that the American people finally have had the scales removed
from their eyes in mass is the panic. The panic
(24:34):
at the heart of the Democrat Party right now. They
are tearing each other apart because the wheels are falling
off of the train, the bus, the train coming apart
at the seams. So you know, I mean, obviously that's
reflected in the polling, but more people see the truth
today than ever before, which is why the Democrats are
(24:56):
trying to change things up. And never forget, if Joe
Biden was annihilating Donald Trump up by ten in every
swing state, not a single Democrat would be saying a thing.
It wouldn't be saying a word what it would.
Speaker 4 (25:16):
Yeah, they would be, So we'd be back to an
f y if you don't agree. Joe Biden's the best
version of Joe Biden. He's the smartest man in the world.
Like he's a nuclear physicist. Didn't you know he was?
Speaker 1 (25:32):
He was the first man on the moon, like head
the lots. And he says, you know, while we're on
Joe Biden's lives, you know, everyone gives Trump ship about
the Hannibal Lecter thing. He's like, oh, the late great
Hannibal Lecter. He's like, if you ever seen Trump's on
the stage at the RNC in primetime, you ever see
(25:52):
the movie Silence of the Lambs, the late great Hannibal Lector,
It's like, so it's just, oh, yeah, we'd love to
have you for dinner, Like it's so funny, and like
the media gives him shit about that. Right, But Joe
Biden actually said his uncle was eaten by cannibals in
World War Two? How have we not made more? How
(26:16):
have we not made more of this? I mean, not
only was his pilot not a gunner? Not only not
only was his cousin not a gunner? Right? He said
he was a gunner or a pilot. I don't know,
he was like a mechanic, which whatever. I mean, Hey,
everyone serves in their own way. That's not even the
most egregious thing. Oh his uncle, his uncle, uncle Josie
(26:38):
or whatever his name is, uncle Bozy is do you
think he has an uncle named Bosie. I don't know,
but so I guess like nothing of what he said
about his uncle Bozie being a pilot or a gunner.
He's basically a mechanic. The plane wasn't shot down, the
plane crashed. You know, God, it's compelling and of itself.
Why the need to make up a lot and then
(27:00):
go overboard and say he was eaten by cannibals?
Speaker 5 (27:04):
And if our president said his uncle was eaten by
cannibals during World War two, and everybody has given Trump
shit for making a joke about Hannibal Lecter.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
Anyway, I don't even the people. People are waking up.
We know that people are waking up because the Democrats
are panicking. We're gonna get into this behind the scenes push.
I've got sources behind that. I've been in contact with
some people that have contacts behind the scenes in the
Democrat Party. We're gonna get into this whole Biden thing again.
(27:41):
Should he stay or should he go? You know where
I fall on this, and I'm gonna tell you why
here in a second. Okay, So, nine additional Democrat members
of Congress have now called on Biden to drop out
of the race as of today. This comes as you know,
crazy Nancy Pelosi leaking that she thinks that Biden can't win.
(28:03):
From crying Chuck Schumer leaking out that he thinks that
Biden can't win. Oh publicly, Oh, they think he's great,
but they're leaking out that they think he can't win.
Here's the thing interesting thing about these leaks. Not enough
people have made this point. In fact, the narrative in
the media right now is that, well, the Biden family,
(28:24):
they're seriously talking to Joe about maybe a pathway out
of this race. They're reflecting on their spot and where
they are presently well. And I mean there are even
some reports saying that Biden's going to step aside altogether,
and it could come as early as as early as Sunday.
(28:46):
But if that were true, I mean, looking it might be.
The Democrats are all many authoritarians, they have, they can,
They're a bunch of commy losers, so anything's possible. But
I've just been why why would you have to leak
that Biden sucks, that Biden can't win, that Biden's getting
(29:08):
annihil Why would you have to leak if you were
behind the scenes he was amiable to the process. If
behind the scenes Biden was like, Okay, I agree, I
can't handle this. I agree I'm going to lose. Let's
say Biden says behind the scenes that I'm going to
step down. Would any Democrat be leaking anything to the media.
(29:33):
Would you still have nine Democrat members of Congress calling
on Biden to drop out today? Would there be any
need to leak to the media at all if Biden
said he was going to drop out already, which was
reported yesterday as we were alive on this show, No,
(29:53):
absolutely not. They wouldn't be leaking anything. Joe Biden would
if if he had decided to drop out, Joe Biden
would give We'd get a notification Biden's going to give
a national address on Sunday. Boom, it would be announced,
and I'm appointing Kamala, right, I want my delegates to
(30:13):
go to Kama. That's how it would be. It would
be orderly, it would be precise. There would be no leaking.
The leaking is your indication that Joe Biden is entrenched.
The leaking is your indication that he ain't going anywhere.
I mean, look, I could be wrong, but I've done
this before. I know how these assholes operate. A whole
(30:36):
lot of people do shows like this, have never actually
had their name on a ballot. They don't know how
these people knight fight behind the scenes, but I do so. Listen,
people in the media who've been speculating about this, they
taught they confused power with influence. People talk about Barack
(30:58):
Obama and Hillary Clinton. I've talked about this too. They
don't Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton. They're leaders in the Democrat Party,
is no question about it. They have enormous influence in
the Democrat Party. And yeah, they got some power here
and there as it pertains to maybe like the political
process and and things like that, but their power pales
(31:18):
in comparison to Joe Biden. Right now, Joe Biden has actual,
what I like to call fu power. Joe Biden has,
let me just say it like this, Joe Biden now
knows that Barack Obama, probably even Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi,
(31:40):
Chuck Schumer are all opposed to him. Now, if you're
if you think you're doing a good job, and you're
the most powerful person on the face of the planet,
how do you respond to that? I mean, honestly, think
about this, I would look at it. You're Joe Biden.
(32:05):
The only job that you've known your entire life is
in Washington being a slimy, gross politician that has leveraged
his position for sweetheart deals for his family to enrich himself.
He's been a sleeves ball his entire career. All he knows.
(32:25):
It's the only form of human capital that he has.
It's all he's ever known. And so now he's the
most powerful man on earth. I mean, I think he's
an illegitimate president. I mean, he one lost in twenty twenty.
But my point is he's in the oval office. He's
the most powerful man on earth. Now he knows that
(32:46):
Obama and Clinton and Pelosi and Schumer are opposed to him.
And this, by the way, is why Pelosi and Schumer
leak so they can throw their hands up and say what,
oh no, no, no, this isn't true. It's not actually
them on camera saying it. Because if it was them
on camera saying it, then they'd be out in the open.
(33:07):
Then Joe Biden would definitely know. But believe me, he knows.
Now you think that's gonna make him more likely to
get out of the race. Or you think that's gonna
entrance his position even further because Joe Biden, I mean, look,
he's down in the polls, but let's be honest with
(33:29):
each other. With the Democrat machine that they have behind them,
they could elect to turn up. And the polls are
bad for Democrats. I mean, there's no doubt about that,
that Joe Biden is pulling his wayward. Trump is up.
I mean, there's no doubt about it. But anything can happen.
(33:49):
And so we got the news last night in the
show that Joe Biden is out. He said he's stepping aside.
And what did I tell you all? Keep your powder dry?
These Democrats play smoking mirrors games in the media better
than just about anybody else. The reason is is because
they're braided together with the media. And what I mean
(34:13):
by that is not only will the media elevate their
propaganda breathlessly. If they elevate propaganda breathlessly, that can also
be used to your advantage. Right, So, most of the
people who are leaking are in opposition to Biden staying in,
which means that if they're in opposition to something in
(34:35):
opposition to Biden's stance of him saying I'm in you
see my point. So these Democrats, they use the media
to leak and weaponize it against their enemies better than
just about anybody else. And so said to you all
last night, keep your powder dry. In this from the
Biden campaign just a couple hours ago, listen, have some breaking.
Speaker 6 (34:58):
News Brian that I want to get to starting President Biden.
And this is a statement that's just out coming over
the Reuyters wires for US. Biden says he looks forward
to getting back on the campaign trail next week, and
he says Donald Trump's dark vision is not who we
are as Americans. It's not much of a statement, but
it is notable because again, there are increasing calls for
(35:20):
him to drop out of the race, including a number
of lawmakers today, five Congress congressman lawmakers and one senator.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
At least you're just joining us talking about Biden. Should
he stay or should he go? And of course I'm
just as stubborn as Joe Biden saying that that. Dude.
I mean, look, you do anything, anything's possible, and Democrats
have lots of power. They can threaten him in a
million different ways. I think he's I think it's I
(35:50):
think he's staying. But in case you're wondering where, Hey,
I am on the road. It's my first show, my
very first remote show. No, this is not a hostage video. No,
Commander Mellie City right here. No, she's not holding me hostage,
just doing a show. So if you could help us
out with our first remote show, smash that little green
thumb beneath the video that like button. Tell your family
(36:11):
and your friends to subscribe to Battleground Live because that helps.
I drove seven hours with my five children and I
was like, we got to get to the hotel. We
got to get to the hotel so I can set
things up so I can talk to the Battle crew
about this crazy night last night. So Donald Trump brings
the house down. Joe Biden is under enormous pressure to
back out of the race. Joe Biden saying he's staying
(36:34):
in the race. Chris Coons, who is his campaign chair,
senator from Delaware, came out and said this, I fully
support the president. He's told me that he's in it
to win it. I'm with him one hundred percent because
I know he can beat Trump just like he did
last time. And listen, I have to tell you like,
(36:57):
who do the Democrats have. I mean, let's be honest here,
Like he's right, I mean, I think that Joe Biden,
even though he's gone, does give the Democrats their best shot.
And at this point in the game, you think that,
I mean, Pennsylvania the most important swing state in the nation,
sixty days away from early voting, and so you think
(37:17):
that it would just be easy to switch to somebody else.
Kamala is really your only shot. Nobody wants to be
Kamala's number two. Believe me, Gavin Newsom, Jos Shapiro, Gretcham Whitmer,
do not want to be number two to Kamala, who
will likely lose, and that kind of brands them as
a loser going into twenty twenty eight. It's much easier
for all of these people to arrive like conquering heroes.
(37:39):
And believe me, Gretchen Whitmer, Gavin Newsom, Josh Shapiro, I
don't think they want to run against Trump again. It's
easier to run in twenty twenty eight when Trump is
not on the ballot, when you're going against somebody who
hasn't been tested nationally. So much about politics is about
timing and having the right political instinct, which is ironic
(38:03):
because most politicians that are in Washington have the most
horrible political instinct. They're just so so stupid when it
comes to this stuff. But timing is everything, and so
people that are shrewd politicians like Newsome, Witmers, and especially Shapiro.
Especially Shapiro, he wants nothing to do with Donald Trump.
(38:26):
I guarantee you trust me on that one. All right,
So let's let's take a break and let's shift gears,
and let's get into this new info on the assassination
attempt on Trump. I saw something that I actually Commander
(38:47):
Melanie flagged for me as we were driving. And it's this.
I don't know if you've heard this, but new former
CIA analyst Gail Helt suggests Donald Trump set up his
own assassination attempt. Helt, who worked for the agency for
eleven years, worked for the agency for eleven years, suggested
(39:10):
that suggested Trump set up a failed hit because he's
desperate to stay out of prison. And I quote Trump
was hit with a bullet because he's desperate to stay
out of prison. I mean, so, I guess Helt is
suggesting that Trump magically turned his head just in time
(39:32):
to save him from an assassin's bullet. You see what
you see why people think there's more to this than
meets the eye. I mean, I things were so negligent,
things were so bad, it's hard. It's hard for me
(39:52):
to imagine that everything that they did was wrong from
top to bottom. They didn't just make one mistake, they
made every mis state the Secret Service, you know, and
it came out yesterday, Josh or Josh Holly today rather
put out a statement saying that most of the people
on the ground that day weren't even Secret Service agents.
They were Department of Homeland Security agents. Told you this
(40:13):
a couple of days ago, so they weren't even really
trained to do the job adequately. And they're all these
theories about second shooters. And I've told you before, folks,
and I'll say it again. I was operating under the
assumption that there were two shooters, but only because that
was worst case scenario. And when you're in combat, when
(40:33):
you're under fire' that's how you operate. You operate under
worst case scenario. But when you have CIA directors, i'm sorry,
CIA analysts coming out and saying crazy shit like that,
do you think it makes it more or less likely
(40:54):
that people have conspiracy theories. Do you think it makes
it more or less likely that people think the CIA
actually orchestrated the entire thing. I'm not saying that they did,
but well, conspiracy theories. That's the conspiracy theory. Is the conspiracy. Yeah,
and that's what we always say, Oh yeah, COVID, Oh yeah,
COVID definitely didn't listen. You're a conspiracy theorist. People for
(41:16):
thinking that COVID came from the Wuhan virology clinic that
just so specializes on coronaviruses, that's a crazy conspiracy theory.
It makes it's much more likely that some crazy Chinese
guy ate bat brains and like that. And so here
you have somebody this is in the CIA. He's saying
that Trump set it up, which is an insane conspiracy theory. Oh,
(41:38):
by the way, she worked for the CIA. But these
are the people that are working at these agencies that
are creating helping to create things like the Steele dossier.
I'm circling back to this. You see how this show
is come in full circle. Now the media is out
there saying they, oh, it's so disconcerted, so disconcerting, that
(42:03):
the Republicans keep saying they how dare they say they
not about the assassination attempt itself, that they don't give
a shit about that? Just how dare they say they
Maybe the CIA analyst who's saying that Trump set up
the assassination attempt because he wants to stay out of
prison is the they that were referring to you massive dipshits.
(42:30):
I'm sorry, I mean, Melie's over here laughing it me.
But as if things weren't crazy enough, America First Legal,
which is done the legal arm of Donald Trump, I mean,
on the on the political side of things, Biden's Secret
Service has denied a freedom of information request by America
(42:52):
First Legal following the assassination attempt on Donald Trump. So
the Secret Service, the Secret Service is claiming that there's
not any urgency and denied to the American people, denied
it to the American people that they even have a
right to know about any of this stuff in the
first place. I would argue that thirty thousand plus people
at that Butler County rally have a right to know
(43:13):
everything that went down. What about the families that lost
lost What of Corey's family? Do you think they have
a right to know what happened? What about the Trumps?
What about Milania? Like, don't you think that they have
a right to know? Listen, I told you three days
(43:35):
ago the United States Secret Service director out there saying
that it was a slope roof and it was too dangerous. Oh,
it's local law enforcements. For I knew right then that
this was there was some sort of a cover up,
because when seemingly intelligent people say purposeful, stupid things, you
(43:57):
know there's corruption at play somewhere. And if the Secret
Service is denying a Foyer request for just to provide
a level of transparency to the American people, what does
that tell you? And I saw something and many of
all maybe seen this video, But Senator Barrosso, who I've met,
is actually from Pennsylvania. Did you know that Senator Barrasso is.
(44:22):
He's from Wyoming, Wyoming. It's just just one of the
best US senators that we have. If you don't know him,
check him out. He's like, really, he's amazing. But I
saw him chasing down the US Secret Service director at
the Republican National Convention. It is worth watching, listening to
because every Republican needs to approach what we're going through
(44:47):
right now with this level of fire. Go ahead and
listen to this.
Speaker 7 (45:00):
It's kind of hard to hear answer questions and then
we run out question and get had every one of
ours have questions and.
Speaker 1 (45:12):
Wanted you didn't get plenty of responding, very disappointed. We
have called I have called for your resignation, John, and
I will starting our questions. Yeah, I mean, like, and
here's the cra so it's hard to hear, so I
just cut the sound. But the media is outraged that
(45:32):
he did this. Oh Brett Brett Hume, Well tell you
those of Mike does Mike little senator looked good trasure
to heard that, like, yes, it does.
Speaker 8 (45:43):
This is the first time I saw it, and I
know I know Pardy here, but oh my gosh, I
thought it was a lot more fiery than that.
Speaker 1 (45:49):
That was nothing. So so this is interesting because Commander
Melanie watched the media coverage and the reaction of how
dare these U S Senators even ask this woman question
in the manner that they did at they RN see
she hadn't seen the video until just now, and her
reaction is that is that that's what has the media's
pants and a bunch panties and a bunch come on.
(46:16):
I mean, it's absolutely unbelievable. And again that tells you
that there's something else going on here. That tells you
that there's something else going on. So I'm going to
show you this breakdown of I think the best breakdown
that we have to date, a visual breakdown of, and
(46:37):
there's an actullent audio breakdown for our friends who are
listening of the assassination attempt. I want you to see it.
I want you to hear it. Okay, so you know
my producer David, who by the way, is helping me
out today in a huge he's been a huge help
for me today doing the remote show and helping me
get set up. But he said, he sent me a
text message said people are saying the bandage over t
(47:00):
ear is unnecessary. And he's right, Texas, by the people
say the bandage over the year is unnecessary and these
are the same ass clowns that I add to the
word ass clowns, But these are the same ass clowns
who wore a mask everywhere for three straight years. I mean,
he's exactly right, it is so so true. But so
check this out. I want to show you this breakdown
(47:21):
of this assassination attempt. I think it's the best one yet.
I've been looking at all of these folks because I
was there. You know, I saw it, I witnessed us,
I know the flow of events. So I've been waiting
for recreation like this to try to give me a
sense of a better understanding of what happened. And to me,
this is the best one yet. So watch listen.
Speaker 8 (47:43):
This is a three D illustration of how many bullets
are fired and their trajectory that struck three people at
the Trump rally on July thirteenth, twenty twenty four. This
is the area we're going to focus in on. Here
you can see the three victims that were injured by
gun and where they were standing in the bleachers.
Speaker 1 (48:02):
So you see so you see Trump there in the
middle of the stage. Victims are highlighted. You see the cranes,
everything like that. The counter sniper teams were on the
building behind President Trump.
Speaker 8 (48:12):
We're going to turn around and demonstrate exactly where these
bullets came from. This model presents Thomas Crooks. His position
could be seen here in this image, which illustrates exactly
where he was turning around we can see the path
of all the bullets that were fired from this location.
I placed a ten foot red disc downrange to represent
what an average shooter could hit easily. Now, let's take
(48:36):
a look at this first shot fired coming from our
key location. Bullet won greetes President Trump's ear. This is
the same bullet that hits a spectator in the stands.
We know this through video evidence. As President Trump is talking,
the first shot rings out just after he says, take
a look at what happened something.
Speaker 1 (48:55):
Take a look at what happens.
Speaker 8 (48:58):
We can see the vapor trail of a bullet strike,
which is the same ule that struck President Trump's ear
a split second earlier. And this video is this location
here back at the podium, President Trump a shot and
grabbed his ear, falling to the ground as more shots
rang out. In total, there were seven or eight shots.
So let's rewind and watch this at regular speed.
Speaker 1 (49:20):
Take a look at what happened. Who longs and dropped
therapaus the bottom.
Speaker 8 (49:31):
With all that gun fired, it's easy to understand how
these spectators were injured even though they were not the target,
including the sole spectator who lost his life.
Speaker 1 (49:39):
That day, Corey says where he was standing. You see
how this works, folks. So well, here let's finish the video. Well, actually,
I want you to look at this. Those bullets you
(50:01):
see where those those bottom those black, So this is
where the shooter is. The two black lines, the trajectory
of those bullets. They they went right over our position,
directly over where we were standing. So you could see
the black lines there to the right. Folks that those
were the lowest shots out there. They That's why I
(50:23):
told you I could hear them crack over our head.
It was those bullets. And also I'm trying, I'm trying
to find the frame where you can see because people
were saying, you know how I thought that there was
another shooter, right and then because I saw a hydraulic
line snap on the construction vehicle, Well you can see
(50:44):
the trajectory of the first round that hit President Trump's ear,
hit this man in the abdomen, and severed the hydraulic
line on that truck, which is why you saw the
smoke on that side. And and that's why you saw
the hydraulic line snap. And so it this is a
remarkable videt. Whoever put this together did a phenomenal job
of actually recreating the events that happened that day. But
(51:07):
I hope that it gives you all a better sense
and understanding and maybe even a sense of It'll never closure.
If somebody that loves this country and appreciates President Trump
and all that he's been through, it's probably not something
It's probably something that you'll remember for the rest of
your lives. I'm looking at some of the comments. I'm seeing,
(51:28):
you know, little fuzz inside job. Listen and fire for
effect counted eight shots? So what did I tell you? Right? Like,
so you want to know the crazy thing about that
fire for effect? I I it's so crazy because I'm
talking about I pieced all this together over the last week.
(51:48):
I lived it. So you're probably wondering, like, well, why
the hell do you have to piece it together? Because
when something like this happens, like, okay, let me talk
about an Afghanistan. We went through all this training and
in Afghanistan we were tested by fire, and that become
a way a way of life for us. And as
(52:10):
that became a way of life for us, getting shot at,
getting ambush, being under sniper fire, being under artillery fire,
it becomes almost a part of your DNA to scan
for threats and react to things. And in that moment,
the training just completely took over. I just reacted and
did exactly how I'd been trained in combat and been combat.
I haven't been in combat for almost eighteen years. But
(52:31):
it came back in a second and instantly it said.
In the moment I turned to Melanie, I'm like, okay,
there are eight shots. And I'm always counting the shots
because if you're carrying a standard thirty round magazine, you
know the fire's thirty rounds. Well, hey, it's a good
time to move. You know he's going to be changing
out magazines, right, So I'm always trying to count the
amount of shots, but fire for effect, exactly right, you
(52:51):
count eight shots. I think there were eight shots as well.
But anyways, folks, I let me tell you, oh yeah,
look at Jara saying the first bullet that goes by
your head. You know exactly what it is. It happened
to me hunting when I was a kid. Three in
a row. I was terrified to move. That's exactly right.
Sounds like a big cracking noise. Sounds like somebody is
(53:11):
right over your head cracking with a whip. It's that loud.
The bullets that cracked over Melanie in my our heads
like they were a little higher, so it just sounded
like a like a it was a crack. It wasn't
as loud, but you could still hear them whizzing right
over our heads. But anyways, folks, listen, I I want
(53:32):
to tell you all thank you for being with me
this week. I mean, the show is is is growing,
and it's growing fast, and I know, like, oh, Patriot fan,
I'll paste a link to that video so that all
of you can access it on my locals. Okay, I'll paste.
(53:53):
I'll get that posted over there on locals for you guys,
so you guys can watch that. But it's one of
the things like this was an impromptu show. I was
very very committed to getting out here and doing this
show and being there with you all because you know,
I think br asked me hey with fans, hey family first,
and absolutely you're right. And I know that that Melanie said,
(54:18):
like coming out here to celebrate her dad's seventy fifth birthday.
You know, I take very seriously the stuff that Melanie
says to me, and you know, she doesn't talk like
this very often. But she's like, our family really needs
this break, and she's exactly right. But I appreciate you
all being here with me as we navigated through all
(54:39):
this craziness. This isn't like a poor me thing. I
mean that. I you know, we're good to go, But
thank you. When I say that this is your show,
I mean it. When I'm committed to doing a show,
even out here on the road looks like a hostage video, Like,
I don't care what it looks like. I want to
make sure that we're that we're bringing the show to you,
you know. Like so when you say, hey, take family first,
(55:03):
I kind of look at the battle crew, the audience,
the people who listen to the show so loyally. I
I you are part of the family. And now you
think that sounds cheesy all you want, but it's how
I really feel. Right Like we were super you know,
we were super committed to getting this set up here
in the hotel and hoped and prayed that it would
work out, and it did. But we are very very
(55:25):
grateful for you. We really are. So want you all
