God amen ladies and gentlemen [8:44] not only as an elected Republican sheriff in the state of Texas but also as a [9:27] veteran of the United States Marine Corps and a retired Texas Ranger it is [9:40] absolutely my privilege to lead you in the pledge to the greatest flag on the face [9:46] of the earth you'll turn around and look oh glory's hanging back there behind you [9:53] gentlemen please remove your hats please join me I pledge allegiance to the [9:59] flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands one [10:06] nation under God indivisible with liberty and justice for all God bless Texas [10:19] please welcome to the stage Tejano artist Savannah B to lead us in the [10:34] national anthem [10:35] I think they might have just talked [11:07] please take off your caps [11:08] your hands [11:12] oh say can you see the dawn's early light what so proudly we hit at the twilight's last gleam whose broad stripes and bright bright [11:40] star through the perilous far all the ramparts we were so gallantly streaked in air that our flag was still oh say does that star-spangled [11:58] zan Antonio presidents come into Texas came up here from just Down betrayed Kingsville where I've been stationed as an [12:01] agency for the last 29 years i've worked for 5 presidents and I can tell you Presidentreek [12:16] San Antonio presidents come into Texas came up here from just down the road 6 [14:25] And I can tell you, President Trump is the only president that has followed through on his promise to secure the border. [14:37] With that, I am here to remind you and every voter of the damage that Joe Biden and the Democrats did to this country in four short years, four short years, they destroyed this country. [15:02] And that can never again be allowed to happen. [15:06] That's why I'm here to tell you, remember what they did and to vote for the Republican Party, the only party that stands for law and order, the only party whose goal is to safely make this country the strongest country, the most secure country in the entire world. [15:35] And we cannot do that if the Democrats come into office. [15:39] The Biden administration was the playbook that the Democrats will use to allow millions more illegal immigrants to come into our country and take advantage of the fact that we are the most generous country. [15:55] But we have to be America first. [15:59] We have to put our Americans, our veterans, our law enforcement, our public servants first. [16:06] We cannot use your funding, your tax dollars to fund the NGOs that have assisted in facilitating the entry of illegal immigrants throughout the entire country. [16:23] So I'm here to tell you today, you must get out. [16:28] You must vote for the Republican ticket. [16:30] I lost a good friend, a co-worker, a fellow agent who lost his life in the line of duty to an illegal alien who, thanks to Ken Paxton, the attorney general, is now sitting on death row. [17:01] Ken Paxton has always been about law and order. [17:04] And he sued the Biden administration so many times he had them on speed dial to let them know we're suing you again. [17:14] He did a great job as the attorney general and he's going to do a fantastic job as the next U.S. senator for Texas. [17:23] So we need you to get out and vote. [17:30] Governor Greg Abbott did the federal government's job on the border when the federal government refused to do their own job. [17:39] So it's important that James Talafrico and Gina Hinojosa do not get into office. [17:46] Every candidate that's here to speak to you, we took out on the border on Monday and we showed them exactly what we're up against. [17:57] The criminal cartels that have unlimited funding. [18:01] The Democrats will allow them to take control of the southern border like they did before. [18:07] If you care about the future of Texas, if you care about the future of this country, [18:12] and if you care about the safety and security of yourself and your family, you must vote for the Republican ticket. [18:20] Thank you. God bless you. I love you, Texas. [18:23] Ladies and gentlemen, on the stage, owner of Goya Foods, Bob Ulanwe. [18:37] Don't mess with Texas. Don't mess with America, the greatest country in the world. [19:10] And we are still the land of opportunity, land of the free and home of the brave. [19:16] I want to thank our Border Patrol, who was just up here, for keeping this country safe and sound. [19:33] It is the home also of the greatest president in history and the greatest world leader of our time, [19:45] President Donald J. Trump. [19:47] We were on the verge of losing it, but President Trump once again has brought opportunity and prosperity [20:03] back to the United States of America. [20:05] He has created the greatest economy in our history. [20:12] He has made us energy independent. [20:15] He is bringing manufacturing back to America, something we lost. [20:21] But now, with new steel mills, automobile manufacturing, super intelligent initiatives, and much more, [20:28] he is on-shoring industry that left our shores. [20:33] He is keeping us safe in our neighborhoods and is protecting our border. [20:38] He has brought America back to its position on the world stage as the greatest country on the planet. [20:51] Once again, we can be proud to be an American when we travel beyond our shores. [20:57] But I have to ask, why do you think President Trump worked so hard, [21:04] risked his life, and sacrificed his all for our country? [21:08] The answer is he loves us. [21:11] He loves this country. [21:12] And we love him. [21:18] He even loves the people with TDS. [21:20] I don't understand it, but he does. [21:22] He does anyway. [21:23] Because he loves this country. [21:25] We are a country of immigrants, legal immigrants, [21:29] who came to this country to work hard, contribute, and to make a better life for themselves and their families. [21:41] Immigrants who stood online and earned correctly the privilege of becoming a citizen of the United States. [21:54] 122 years ago, I was barely a child at the time. [21:58] My grandfather migrated from Spain to Puerto Rico and then to New York, entering through Ellis Island. [22:07] He came to contribute, to work hard, and he came with purpose, a reason to get up every day. [22:14] He did not come, Poricua, Puerto Rico. [22:20] Amen. [22:21] You know, we're the second largest Latino community in the world, the United States, [22:25] and we have the opportunity to form our future with all the contributions during Hispanic Heritage Month [22:33] that Hispanics have made to this great country. [22:36] My grandfather did not come with his handout. [22:39] He never felt entitled or took any handouts because there were none. [22:44] He only felt privileged to have the opportunity for freedom and prosperity. [22:47] He built the largest Hispanic food company in the United States, Goya Foods. [22:59] Now, let me, since I claim my time, they're very quick, so I'm going to add a little bit. [23:06] Now, let's fast forward to 2021, and let me address the donkeys in the room, where they say the asses. [23:17] It's not the elephants, the donkeys. [23:20] Javier Becerra and Alejandro Mayorkas. [23:24] And I created Goya Cares and helped with the film Sound of Freedom to create awareness for child trafficking. [23:35] Becerra and Alejandro Mayorkas. [23:38] Becerra running for governor of California, believe it or not. [23:40] Under the watchful eye of the Biden administration, kidnapped Texas and surrendered the U.S. border. [23:50] Texas is the front line for our nation's border. [23:56] And that administration poured hundreds of millions of dollars into NGOs, even here in San Antonio. [24:02] I'm not going to mention names. [24:06] In order to aid and facilitate the exploitation and trafficking of over 400,000 children, as well as 15 million, more than 15 million, illegals that poured into our country, it was an invasion. [24:22] According to testimony by Taralee Rodas of ORR, Office of Refugee Resettlement under HHS, now under Bobby Kennedy Jr., God bless him. [24:35] The U.S. was the middleman in the largest criminal industry in the world, human trafficking, hundreds of billions of dollars, all for power and greed. [24:52] Under the Biden administration, an economy flourished for the few while exploiting and enslaving the most vulnerable in our world. [25:03] Well, guess what? [25:10] They see weakness again. [25:12] As socialism tries to hold on to November 3rd, there's already another caravan forming in Mexico. [25:22] The left smell blood. [25:24] They smell weakness. [25:27] But we are not weak. [25:34] We are strong. [25:36] So don't mess with Texas and don't mess with our children. [25:40] Mess with our children and don't mess with our country. [25:48] President Trump won't allow another invasion. [25:59] Governor Abbott won't allow it. [26:02] Our next senator, Ken Paxton, won't allow it. [26:06] Dan Patrick won't allow it. [26:08] None of us will allow it. [26:10] Yes, today our nation is under attack from the left, disguised as progressive, democrat, socialist, even moderates. [26:21] This is a zombie apocalypse of democrat, socialist candidates seeking to dismantle America. [26:31] Take away our freedom, our prosperity, our security to take over our lives. [26:37] The ideals of these walking dead come from countries where communism died. [26:44] Where they left empty shelves, empty wallets, and empty churches with the goal of enslaving us and exploiting us for power and greed. [26:51] They only seek mediocrity at best for America, never greatness. [26:58] Their slogan is, Mama, make America mediocre again. [27:05] And mama means to suck, by the way, in Spanish anyway. [27:08] Mama is make America mediocre again. [27:12] But wait a minute. [27:14] We have the goat. [27:16] We have President Trump who stands courageously in the breach. [27:20] And will fight, fight, fight to never allow this country to be taken over by socialism. [27:27] And we are at the President's side, along with Governor Greg Abbott, Attorney General Ken Paxson, Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick, and many other Congressional Republicans, candidates, who also stand at the breach with President Donald Trump. [27:42] I'm finishing. [27:42] 250 years ago, our founders refused to bow. [27:46] And we will not be the generation that let it fall. [27:49] We are all America. [27:51] And with President Trump, we will make America great again. [27:55] Republican nominee for the 23rd Congressional District of Texas, Brandon Herrera. [28:13] How's it going, San Antonio? [28:40] Who's here ready to hear from the greatest president of my lifetime, Donald Trump? [28:48] It's honestly so amazing to see so many young people here, so many inspired young people. [28:57] I saw a lot of Turning Point people. [28:58] Can we give it up for Turning Point? [29:00] It's breathtaking to me to see all these young people here, because just 10 short years ago, I was one of those young people here as a volunteer, as a staffer for Donald Trump's first campaign in 2016. [29:20] So to be standing before you here today at a Trump rally, not just as a speaker, but for a candidate for Congress, is incredible. [29:33] Thank you so much. [29:34] And it's so incredible to see so many young people stepping up and doing what we all need to be doing. [29:45] My generation, taking some agency and some ownership in this country to stand up to socialism, which is so, so invasive into the lives of young people nowadays, rejecting socialism and embracing what makes this country great. [30:02] I love seeing it. [30:03] I really do, because we have so much left to accomplish. [30:14] There are so many things we need to do, especially in my district, Texas District 23. [30:19] It is the biggest border district in the entire country. [30:24] And we saw, we were ground zero for the Biden border crisis. [30:28] Does anybody remember that? [30:32] We cannot go back to that. [30:34] We know better than anyone that that was absolutely disastrous for our country. [30:39] And we need to do better. [30:40] And thanks to President Trump and the Republicans in Congress, we've secured our border. [30:44] And those are the things we need to continue to deliver on, because we're not done. [30:57] That's why this midterm is so important. [30:59] Everyone says it every time, but this is one of the most important elections of our lifetime, because we've seen two years of wins delivered under Republican leadership and under President Trump. [31:10] We've seen no taxes on tips, no taxes on overtime, working class family tax cuts and a secure border. [31:23] Those are the things that we need to continue to work toward and achieve and continue to deliver those wins and bring them home for the American people. [31:36] Because if we see Democrats sweep these midterms, all we're going to see is no progress and a bunch of sham impeachment hearings. [31:43] I, for one, would like to see some wins delivered for the American people to bring the cost of living down, bring taxes down, deliver wins to your dinner table, and we will continue to do that. [31:56] And I have amazing colleagues in the freshman class of the Texas delegation that are willing to help with us, some of whom you're going to hear from tonight. [32:10] We've got Chris Gober, Carlos de la Cruz, top of ticket, we've got Mays Middleton, we've got Ken Paxton. [32:16] This is a great election to vote red all up and down the ballot. [32:20] So I'm asking you to join me in keeping Texas red on November 3rd. [32:30] Thank you so much. [32:31] New D stage, Republican nominee for the National District of Texas, Chris Gober. [32:49] That walkout music. [33:19] I got to ask, Texas, are you ready to bring the thunder? [33:28] It's great to be here today with so many freedom-loving patriots. [33:33] My name is Chris Gober. [33:38] I'm a seventh-generation Texan. [33:40] The Republican nominee for Congress is in Texas' 10th District. [33:43] And I have the honor of getting you warmed up for the man you really came to see, President Donald J. Trump. [34:02] I'm running for Congress because this is one of those moments in history when we cannot sit on the sidelines. [34:12] From the very beginning, America understood itself as one nation under God. [34:25] Our founders knew our rights don't come from government. [34:29] They don't come from a king. [34:30] They come from our creator. [34:42] When we push God out of public life, we lose more than our faith. [34:48] We lose our bearings as a nation. [34:53] And nowhere is that clearer than in today's Democratic Party. [34:59] It's not the party we grew up with. [35:02] Not the party of my grandparents. [35:05] Blue Dog Democrats who believed in a hard day's work. [35:09] Went to church on Sunday and respected the badge and the flag. [35:14] Now we see a Democratic Party that opens the borders to cartels and calls it compassion. [35:28] Embraces communism and Marxism while spending us into crushing debt. [35:34] And treats traditional Christian beliefs as a problem to be managed instead of a heritage to be honored. [35:46] I am proud of this country. [35:51] I am proud of this country. [35:52] Not because America... [35:54] Yeah, yeah, I'm proud of this country. [36:16] Not because America is perfect. [36:19] But because America has always been capable of becoming better. [36:25] We are a nation built by people willing to work, take risks, and build a future for their children. [36:32] And that spirit still runs through Texas. [36:37] I'll leave you with this. [36:45] History doesn't ask permission before it arrives. [36:49] It shows up and asks what you're made of. [36:52] America's first generation fought a revolution and signed their names to a declaration knowing they could be hanged for treason. [37:02] The greatest generation stormed the beaches of Normandy. [37:06] They stormed the beaches of Normandy so that evil would not prevail. [37:16] Now, now, it's our turn. [37:22] Will this generation stand for secure borders? [37:25] American jobs, our families, our churches, and the truth? [37:29] Or will this generation stand aside and let evil prevail? [37:39] I know what we'll do. [37:44] We will stand. [37:46] We will work. [37:48] We will pray. [37:50] And we will vote. [37:58] And we will never apologize for loving our country, our state, our faith, and our way of life. [38:04] So today, let's send a message to Washington and to every corner of Texas. [38:16] Strength, not surrender. [38:18] Honest work, not empty promises. [38:21] A future where our children grow up free, safe, and proud to be Americans. [38:26] One nation, one party with one mission, under God. [38:39] Let's go win this, Texas. [38:41] Thank you. [38:45] God bless you. [38:47] God bless, Texas. [38:48] And God bless the United States of America. [39:05] Republican nominee for the 35th Congressional District of Texas, Carlos de la Cruz. [39:11] Thank you, San Antonio. [39:42] You know, before I begin, before I begin, I need to know something. [39:50] Do we have any veterans in the house with us today? [39:54] Raise your hands up. [39:55] Raise your hands up. [39:56] All right, take a look around. [39:59] All of those hands that went up is a hand that signed the check to our country, payable with their life. [40:07] And I just want to say I salute you. [40:10] Thank you so much. [40:11] Give another round of applause. [40:12] Well, listen, my name is Carlos de la Cruz. [40:21] I am a lifelong Texan who enlisted in the United States Air Force. [40:25] And at 18, I went to basic training right here at Lackland Air Force Base. [40:35] And I've deployed multiple times to Iraq and Afghanistan after 9-11. [40:42] And after 20 years, I retired right back here at Military City, USA. [40:48] Now, when I came home, my wife, Annette, and I, we opened up a small business here in San Antonio [40:59] where we spent our evenings mentoring local kids. [41:04] Now, listen, I'm not a politician. [41:07] I've never worked a day in Washington. [41:10] I can tell you that I am a husband. [41:11] I am a father. [41:13] I am a veteran. [41:14] And I am a fighter. [41:15] And the reason I'm running for Congress is because I am not done fighting for my country. [41:22] Listen, I'm running for the family at the kitchen table tonight, doing the math on the rent, [41:34] gas, and groceries, and wondering how it all adds up. [41:39] I know what that's like because that's my family, too. [41:43] You know, the insiders in Washington have never felt that squeeze. [41:47] They write the rules. [41:48] They spend money that we don't have. [41:49] And they send you the bill. [41:52] That's why in Congress, I'll fight to cut taxes. [41:56] I will fight to cut the waste. [41:58] And I will fight to make sure that you are able to keep more of your hard-earned money [42:04] and that less of it goes to those Washington insiders. [42:08] Now, I'll fight for our border, too, because I've seen it up close. [42:16] You see, the Air Force actually deployed me down there to defend our nation against deadly drugs. [42:23] And so I've seen firsthand when Washington turns its back on our country [42:28] and allows that border to be left wide open. [42:35] Fentanyl poured in, and our families across the country were left with empty chairs at the dinner table [42:42] where their kids used to sit. [42:44] Then, thank God, Donald J. Trump did what had to be done and locked it down. [42:51] Now, our job now is to keep it that way. [42:59] And in Congress, I'll carry on the mission, and we will go after the cartels with hell, fire, and fury. [43:06] And let me be clear. [43:12] If you came to our country to terrorize our communities or to sell your poison to our kids, [43:19] you will be dealt with, and dealt with severely. [43:28] Now, keeping that promise means accountability. [43:30] And my opponent, Johnny Garcia, built his career doing the opposite. [43:37] If you don't know, he's the PR guy for one of the most liberal sheriffs in the country. [43:43] His job is to make excuses for his boss's failures. [43:46] Now, his new bosses in Washington want him to make excuses for them. [43:52] That's why they handpicked him, because they know that he is going to be a rubber stamp for their agenda. [43:57] And I don't know if you've noticed this, but they're running the same playbook all over Texas. [44:04] They recruit these far-left extremists, you know, put a big old cowboy hat on them like it's Halloween, [44:10] and they tell them, you know what, tell the public you're a moderate. [44:15] It's what they're doing with my opponent. [44:18] And listen, we also see it with radical Tallarico, who voted to raise taxes on middle-class families. [44:28] Look, these guys are puppets for the elites. [44:30] But the good news is, the choice is clear in this election. [44:34] I am an outsider. [44:36] Johnny Garcia is the insider's pick. [44:39] I'm going to fight to keep our borders secure, [44:41] and he would take us right back to the chaos that we experienced in the Biden administration. [44:47] Listen, the steering wheel in that party only turns one direction, [44:52] and that is hard left into socialism. [44:55] And Texas, we are not falling for it. [44:58] Now listen, this community has given me everything. [45:07] I have spent two decades wearing our country's uniform, [45:11] and it would be the honor of my life to serve you again in Congress. [45:15] Thank you, San Antonio. [45:17] God bless you, and God bless America. [45:29] Ladies, welcome to the stage. [45:33] Republican nominee for Attorney General of Texas, Mays Middleton. [45:38] Howdy, San Antonio. [46:01] All right, I want to hear it. [46:05] How excited we are to welcome our president, Donald J. Trump. [46:17] And look, I want to thank you for electing me to be your Republican nominee for Texas Attorney General. [46:25] I want to thank my family as well. [46:31] My wife, Macy, our four little ones. [46:33] My mom is right over here. [46:35] I could not do this without them. [46:39] And those four little ones that we have, that's my daily reminder of what we're fighting for here. [46:45] By God's grace, it's by God's grace that I'm standing here on this stage. [46:52] And you know, our kids, that is one of the most important things that we do to protect that next generation [46:58] and protect them from whom? [47:01] People like James Tallarico, right? [47:04] Are we going to let that guy win? [47:06] No. [47:08] Now, y'all have all seen the fake ads, right? [47:11] With the rented truck and the zip-up boots and the rocking chair. [47:16] You've all seen those, right? [47:19] You know, I served in the Texas House for four years with that guy. [47:24] And there are atheists that I know that are more Christian than him. [47:34] And you know we're getting very near to November here [47:37] when socialists are suddenly saying that they're moderate. [47:43] I don't think so. [47:43] I mean, these are people that have voted with AOC for years. [47:50] And all of us, I know Boo is right. [47:53] But that's who's running. [47:54] People just like her. [47:56] And they're saying, no, they didn't mean that. [47:58] That actually wasn't them. [48:00] Yeah, right. [48:01] You know what? [48:01] We've got the receipts. [48:05] James Tallarico, my Democrat opponent, they caved in to the lawless mob and voted to defund the police. [48:14] Believe that? [48:14] Not only that, they voted to allow violent criminals, rapists, out on $0 cash bail. [48:23] And not only that, they support these anti-law enforcement groups that say jails are racist, outdated, and need to be abolished. [48:39] How ridiculous is that? [48:42] You know what? [48:43] Me, on the other hand, I am and will be the law and order, tough on crime, lock them up, candidate for attorney general. [48:52] And I will create a task force devoted to attacking and rooting out organized crime, attacking and rooting out cartels, attacking and rooting out sex traffickers and drug traffickers, and attacking and rooting out Sharia law. [49:54] Well, I have heard you loud and clear, and so is all of Texas. [49:58] And I'm going to make sure that Texas is the safest state in America to live and raise a family, period, the end. [50:09] And, you know, the left that we're up against, the Democrats, they're not just in a war against Republicans. [50:15] They're in a war against common sense. [50:21] Is it common sense to let a 250-pound man play women's sports? [50:26] No. [50:27] Is it common sense to let a man in a woman's dress in your little girl's restroom? [50:33] No. [50:34] Is it common sense to rename pregnant woman, pregnant individual? [50:40] Well, that is exactly what James Tallarico and my Democrat opponent have done. [50:51] And I have fought back against the left's war on common sense, defeated them, authored and passed the Save Women's Sports Act, which kicks men out of women's college sports, and the women's privacy law, which kicks perverts out of women's restrooms and locker rooms. [51:16] And I will aggressively enforce those laws as Attorney General to keep your daughters and all the future daughters of our great state safe. [51:33] But first, November the 3rd, the very first day of early voting is October 19th. [51:48] Who's going to vote on day one? [51:55] That is how we defeat the left. [51:57] And the reason why we know this is so important is we don't have another Texas to move to. [52:05] This is it. [52:06] Right here, right now. [52:08] God bless you. [52:09] God bless San Antonio. [52:11] And God bless the great state of Texas. [52:29] Please welcome to the stage, Lieutenant Governor of Texas, Dan Patrick. [52:33] At 6.30 this morning, my phone rang, and the person who woke me up is coming to speak to you later. [53:11] It was the president. [53:11] And he said, Dan, how's it going to look tonight? [53:18] I said, they're going to turn out to greet you and applaud you and salute you and make sure that we win Texas up and down the ticket. [53:29] He loves Texas. [53:32] Let me tell you a story. [53:38] In the southern part of Texas, in the town of San Antone, there's a fortress all in ruin that the weeds have overgrown. [53:47] You may look in vain for crosses, but you'll never find a one. [53:50] But sometimes, between the setting and the rising of the sun, you'll hear a ghostly bugle as the men go marching by. [53:58] You'll hear them as they answer to the roll call in the sky. [54:01] Colonel Travis and Davy Crockett, 180 more. [54:04] Captain Dickinson and Jim Bowie, president accounted for. [54:07] You see, back in 1836, Houston said to Travis, get some volunteers and go fortify the Alamo. [54:13] And the men came from Texas and from old Tennessee, and they joined up with Travis to fight for the right to be free. [54:21] Indians with squirrel guns and men with muzzle loaders stood together heel and toe to defend the Alamo. [54:26] You may never see your loved ones, Travis told them that day. [54:30] Those who want to can leave now. [54:32] Those who fight to the death, let them stay. [54:35] In the sand, he drew a line with his army's saber. [54:38] And out of 185, not one soldier crossed the line. [54:43] With his banners a-dancing and the dawn's golden light, Santa Ana came prancing on a horse that was black as the night. [54:49] Send it and assert it, tell Travis to surrender. [54:52] And Travis answered, with a shell and a rousing rebel yell. [54:57] Santa Ana turned scarlet. [54:58] Played, diguelo, he roared. [55:00] I will show them no mercy. [55:02] Everyone will be put to the sword. [55:04] Five days, six days, eight days, ten. [55:06] Travis held, and he held again. [55:08] He sent for replacements for the wounded and lame. [55:11] But the troops that were coming under Fannin never came, never came. [55:15] Twice he charged and blew recall. [55:17] But on that fatal third time, Santa Ana breached the wall, and he killed them, one and all. [55:23] Now the bugles are silent, and there's rust on each sword. [55:27] And a small band of soldiers lie asleep in the arms of the Lord. [55:31] In the southern part of Texas, there's the town of San Antone. [55:36] There's a statue of a cowboy as he rides there all alone. [55:40] And he sees the cattle grazing where a century before, Santa Ana guns were blazing and the cannons used to roar. [55:47] And his eyes turn sort of misty, and his heart is all aglow for the 13 days of glory at the siege of Alamo. [55:56] They fought for freedom and independence, and that's what's on the ballot right now for Texas again. [56:04] And all of us, all of us have the DNA of Crockett, Bowie, and Travis in us. [56:11] Whether you're born here or you moved here. [56:14] When you go around the world, people say, where are you from? [56:16] You don't say America. [56:18] You say Texas. [56:24] I want you to look at that flag. [56:28] By the way, I did have a thought. [56:29] Can you imagine if James Tallarico showed up at the Alamo? [56:34] He'd be standing there and he'd say, Colonel Crockett, I'm reporting for duty, sir. [56:38] And Crockett would look at him and say, son, I appreciate you wearing that coonskin cap in honor of my Tennesseans, but the tail goes in the back. [56:48] Can't fire your musket that way, James. [56:50] That flag does not stand for Sharia law. [56:57] That flag does not stand for Marxism. [57:01] That flag does not stand for communism. [57:04] That flag does not stand for socialism. [57:07] That flag stands for God and country and family. [57:14] God, country, and family. [57:23] The Democrats hate that flag. [57:26] They hate our country. [57:27] They hate God. [57:29] And they are on a march to destroy this country. [57:33] Make no mistake. [57:34] The president has said this is the most dangerous threat we've ever had to our nation. [57:39] And they're expecting the Ds. [57:42] That they're going to take taxes. [57:43] As John Wayne said in The Searchers, that'll be the day. [57:51] That flag is who we are. [57:55] All of us. [57:57] Our founding fathers, they believed in God first. [58:01] And that's what made our nation so great and our constitution so different. [58:05] We were the first nation to say we will not allow rulers to rule us. [58:10] We will rule ourselves. [58:12] And we have done that since then. [58:14] But you cannot have a democracy or a republic that doesn't have virtue. [58:18] And you can't have virtue without God. [58:20] And you can't have God without freedom. [58:22] Make no mistake. [58:28] Ken Paxson's going to be your next U.S. senator. [58:31] Greg Abbott's going to be governor. [58:33] I will be lieutenant governor. [58:35] Mace Middleton will be your next attorney general. [58:37] And down the ticket. [58:38] I want you to promise me you can do something. [58:41] To multiply your vote. [58:43] All of you have hundreds or thousands of contacts on your phone. [58:47] I want you to text every one of them. [58:49] Simple text. [58:50] Cut and paste. [58:50] Are you voting Republican starting October 19th? [58:55] If they say yes, say thank you. [58:57] Don't forget to vote. [58:57] If they say no, call them. [58:59] And explain to them what's at stake. [59:02] Do we love this flag? [59:05] Let us stand for this flag. [59:08] Stand for our country. [59:10] Stand for Texas. [59:11] Are you with me? [59:14] Are you going to vote? [59:16] Are you going to get your friends to vote? [59:18] And are we going to kick the Democrats in the ass and send them back to New York and California? [59:24] God bless you. [59:25] Thank you. [59:25] Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome to the stage Republican nominee for United States Senate, [1:00:10] Ken Paxton. [1:00:11] So Dan, Lieutenant Dan, asked the question, what would Colonel Travis have asked if James [1:00:45] Tallarico showed up at the Alamo? [1:00:47] How many of y'all think James Tallarico would show up at Annie Alamo? [1:00:54] So I don't know if you know this. [1:00:56] When I came in here today, we were on day 11 of James Tallarico not showing up in public [1:01:03] and canceling all public appearances. [1:01:07] Where do you think they hid that little socialist? [1:01:09] So I want you to help me because the media hasn't been really asking, where is he? [1:01:15] They would be asking where I was after two minutes. [1:01:18] So I want you to help me. [1:01:19] We're going to practice something. [1:01:20] I want a little audience participation. [1:01:22] And here's what we're going to ask. [1:01:24] The media is I'm going to do one, two, three, and then you say, where is James Tallarico? [1:01:31] All right, you got it? [1:01:32] Okay. [1:01:33] One, two, three. [1:01:35] Where is James Tallarico? [1:01:39] Perfect. [1:01:40] Maybe we'll get an answer for that. [1:01:44] All right. [1:01:44] Have you all ever heard that this is the most important election of your lifetime? [1:01:51] Anybody ever heard that? [1:01:52] Well, you know what? [1:01:53] I have been thinking about that. [1:01:56] And I've learned, you know, why do we always say that? [1:01:58] And you know what? [1:01:59] I want you to think about this. [1:02:00] The continental divide in the United States. [1:02:03] If a drop of rain falls one inch or more on the right side, on the east side, it ends up [1:02:09] in the Atlantic Ocean. [1:02:10] If it falls one inch on the other side or more, it ends up in the Pacific Ocean, unless [1:02:18] we've renamed it. [1:02:21] I think that's possible. [1:02:23] This election, we're not talking about red versus blue. [1:02:30] We're not talking about a moderate Democrat. [1:02:31] We're talking about the Constitutional Republic, freedom, the Bill of Rights. [1:02:38] We are talking about capitalism. [1:02:40] On the other side, we are talking about communism, socialism, the government controlling it. [1:02:45] That's why these elections are really mattering. [1:02:50] And they matter, unfortunately, right here in Texas. [1:02:52] So speaking of James Tallarico, I know you've heard some of this stuff, said capitalism was [1:03:10] oppressive and we needed to dismantle it, said that you couldn't be a Christian and support [1:03:19] the oil and gas industry. [1:03:20] I haven't found that in the Bible anywhere yet. [1:03:23] And then he tried to pass a bill, a climate change bill, that would have basically destroyed [1:03:28] the oil and gas industry in Texas. [1:03:34] And we all know that because of climate change, he ran a vegan campaign. [1:03:41] That means no Texas barbecue. [1:03:42] We also know that twice, not just once, he voted for boys and girls sports. [1:03:52] I'm going to stop here. [1:03:59] We're in Texas, right? [1:04:03] Of course, he fought for transitioning our children. [1:04:12] And of course, every single time Dan Patrick and our Texas House presented bills that would [1:04:18] have protected our border, whether it was to help local law enforcement, state law enforcement, [1:04:23] cooperation among law enforcement across state lines, sheriffs, building detention centers, [1:04:29] the wall. [1:04:30] You know, James Tallarico, what he voted every single time. [1:04:34] No, no to all of that. [1:04:40] Now, oddly enough, now that we're in a general election, every one of those views has suddenly [1:04:44] changed. [1:04:46] Do you all believe his voting record or what he's telling us now? [1:04:53] Meanwhile, while he was capitulating to open borders and killing the oil and gas industry, [1:04:59] I was suing Joe Biden 107 times about those very issues. [1:05:03] So as you leave here today, obviously, we're going to get to hear, you know, Brandon Herrera [1:05:17] said he was the greatest president in his lifetime, but Brandon's only 30-something. [1:05:20] I'm 63. [1:05:21] He is the greatest president in my lifetime. [1:05:23] That's saying a lot more. [1:05:25] Do you all agree? [1:05:31] So as we leave here today, I'm going to ask you to do a couple of things. [1:05:34] One, I'm going to ask you to pray. [1:05:35] Pray for our state. [1:05:36] Pray for our country. [1:05:38] Pray that we will be delivered from socialism and from communism. [1:05:42] Second, I need you to get on Right Insight, which is our app, where you can put all your [1:05:55] contacts in and you can track each day of voting, whether your friends are voting. [1:06:00] And then you can go remind them every day, if you want me to stop harassing you, go vote [1:06:05] Republican. [1:06:06] Can you all do that? [1:06:07] And I'll have people outside the doors who will help you do that. [1:06:12] And then go to KenPaxson.com and volunteer and help us. [1:06:17] 250 years ago, we just celebrated something that happened 250 years ago on 4th of July. [1:06:23] It was our 250th anniversary. [1:06:27] And I want you to think about what our founders in that first year were thinking. [1:06:33] Do you think they had envisioned any of this? [1:06:36] They didn't envision us, I can guarantee you. [1:06:39] Think of what they created by creating the constitution that they created, by recognizing [1:06:45] that we had inalienable rights from God and not from the government. [1:06:49] Nothing like it had ever happened in history. [1:06:51] And they have given us 250 years of freedom and prosperity. [1:07:01] So here we are in the beginning of the next 250 years, just like our founders. [1:07:08] Texans who have led this country in a very good direction. [1:07:12] We are prosperous. [1:07:13] We are free. [1:07:15] But we have a choice right now. [1:07:17] Are we going to accept tyranny? [1:07:19] Or do we going to keep our freedom? [1:07:20] So this is our time. [1:07:30] And I hope that in 250 years, they are looking back on Texas, just like we did with the Alamo, [1:07:36] that they held the line and that they defended our constitution. [1:07:39] They defended our freedom. [1:07:40] And that we fought this socialistic, communistic effort in Texas and all over this country. [1:07:47] So as I leave Texans, we have to win. [1:07:54] Let's go win. [1:07:56] God bless you. [1:07:56] And God bless the great state of Texas. [1:07:59] Thank you. [1:08:00] Roger Clemens. [1:11:29] Listen to this energy all night. [1:12:07] Let's go. [1:12:10] I came over from Houston. [1:12:12] Houston is my home with my family. [1:12:13] But I came over here to see all of you and our great president, of course. [1:12:21] Let me give a quick shout out to Fox. [1:12:25] Real quick, 30 years, celebrating 30 years. [1:12:27] Way to go, Fox and friends. [1:12:30] Wanted to get them in. [1:12:31] But what a privilege it is for me to be here to intro our great president. [1:12:35] Yes, a man that loves our country, that puts all of us first and puts America first. [1:12:48] This is what I love. [1:12:50] He's made us better. [1:12:52] He's made us stronger. [1:12:54] And more importantly, because of the border and everything here, he's made us safer. [1:12:59] And don't forget, this is really important. [1:13:05] Don't forget, this man, he put his life on the line for us. [1:13:10] Don't ever forget that. [1:13:15] The theme of the evening is get out and vote. [1:13:18] Get out and vote, y'all. [1:13:20] You can do it. [1:13:25] And now, short and sweet, your 45th and 47th president. [1:13:31] Wait a minute. [1:13:32] Wait a minute. [1:13:33] Let me say this. [1:13:34] Wait a second. [1:13:36] And I might add, I might, I might add a damn good golfer. [1:13:43] He's gotten better with age. [1:13:45] Ladies and gentlemen, your president of the United States, Donald J. Trump. [1:13:50] Nice place. [1:14:07] Thank you very much, everybody. [1:14:10] Thank you. [1:14:16] Thank you very much. [1:14:18] And I want to especially thank a true star, a true great one, Roger Clemens, one of the [1:14:25] greatest baseball players of all time. [1:14:30] And hello to the great state of Texas. [1:14:35] Thank you. [1:14:35] We won this state all three times, and I'm proud to have received more votes than any [1:14:49] candidate in the history of Texas. [1:14:54] But with your support, 27 days from now, we're going to crush Democrat communist James [1:15:04] Telfrico. [1:15:05] We're going to crush him at the ballot box. [1:15:12] We're going to send Ken Paxton, who's, remember, he is perhaps the greatest attorney general in [1:15:19] the United States of America. [1:15:25] I think he's probably the greatest attorney general in the history of the state of Texas. [1:15:30] He is tough, and he was with us all the way. [1:15:33] And so I just want to thank him. [1:15:35] He's a fantastic, he's a fantastic man, and what a job he's done. [1:15:40] And, you know, you get elected on job performance. [1:15:43] If you get elected on job performance, you're going to have a blowout because there's nobody [1:15:47] like him, right? [1:15:49] Even Ted Cruz agrees. [1:15:50] Even Ted Cruz agrees. [1:15:53] He never agrees. [1:15:55] He's a great guy. [1:15:57] And we're going to reelect Dan Patrick as your lieutenant governor. [1:16:06] So, you know, in 2015, I called Dan Patrick. [1:16:11] I said, you know, I'm going to do this, and I'd love you to be the chairman of my campaign. [1:16:15] That's a long time ago now, but he's been the chairman of my campaign every day for 11 [1:16:22] years, right? [1:16:23] For 11 years, you had it all up. [1:16:25] We had a lot of victories. [1:16:28] We won three times. [1:16:30] Think of it. [1:16:31] We won three times. [1:16:32] Conclusively. [1:16:35] And here in the 35th Congressional District, we're also going to send Carlos de la Cruz to [1:16:41] the U.S. House of Representatives. [1:16:46] Carlos, he's right here. [1:16:47] Thank you, Carlos. [1:16:48] I heard you're doing great, too. [1:16:49] In this election, I'm asking you to pretend. [1:16:52] Remember, pretend. [1:16:53] You just have to pretend. [1:16:55] Somebody said, I'm forcing them. [1:16:57] I'm not forcing. [1:16:58] Pretend that I'm on the ballot because we get a lot more votes. [1:17:03] We get, when I'm on the ballot, we get exactly 48% more votes. [1:17:10] So, you know, in a way we are on the ballot, let's face it, because they're going to destroy [1:17:14] everything that we've done. [1:17:16] So, please pretend that I'm on the ballot. [1:17:18] Get out and vote. [1:17:20] Early voting begins. [1:17:24] Early voting begins October 19th and ends October 30th. [1:17:28] Or just go vote Election Day. [1:17:30] We don't care. [1:17:30] Just, you got to get out and vote. [1:17:32] You got to vote for Ken. [1:17:33] You got to vote for Carlos. [1:17:34] You got to vote for Dan Patrick. [1:17:37] You got to vote for the group. [1:17:38] You have great people. [1:17:39] He said, don't vote for Tala Frico. [1:17:44] I said, only in Texas can they say that. [1:17:48] For decades, Texas has been the state where people flee to escape the economic oppression [1:17:54] and social collapse of Democrat-run California, New York, Illinois, and other failing blue [1:18:00] states. [1:18:01] But if Tala Frico and the Democrats get their way, all of that squalor, misery, poverty, [1:18:10] homelessness. [1:18:10] You know, I said it the other day, when the blues get in, everything becomes dirty. [1:18:18] The streets are dirty. [1:18:19] The doorknobs going into stores are dirty. [1:18:23] The sidewalks are filthy dirty. [1:18:27] Everything becomes dirty and has a bad smell. [1:18:31] But we're going to escape all that lawlessness, corruption, dysfunction that's coming to destroy [1:18:37] your beloved state of Texas if this guy ever got in. [1:18:41] And remember this, proud long ago patriots of the Lone Star State will never forgive you [1:18:52] for what you have done if you let that happen. [1:18:55] We got to get, we got to get the best guy. [1:18:58] He'll be one of the best. [1:18:59] I'll tell you what. [1:19:00] He'll be one of the best senators that we have in this country. [1:19:03] You watch. [1:19:04] I know my people. [1:19:05] I know my people. [1:19:06] And I just made enemies of about 53 senators, but that's okay. [1:19:16] But Texas will be almost instantaneously destroyed if Telefrico gets in. [1:19:24] I don't even know his other name, you know. [1:19:26] I have no idea. [1:19:27] I don't even know. [1:19:30] I have no idea what the hell his name is. [1:19:34] I just know him as Telefrico. [1:19:39] I will soon resemble, it'll soon resemble California. [1:19:42] You see what's California going? [1:19:43] Illinois, New York State, a vote for Telefrico is a vote to turn Texas into a dirty, failing, [1:19:52] crime-ridden, third-world dumping ground. [1:19:57] And a vote for Ken Paxton is a vote to save Texas and defend everything that made Texas [1:20:04] great and makes America great. [1:20:18] And I want you to know that the extreme dangers of having somebody like this Democrat, it's [1:20:25] a Democrat because their policy is so bad. [1:20:27] I can't believe it took me nine years to come up with that one. [1:20:31] Just a little change of two letters, a little change. [1:20:37] You get rid of the E, replace it with the U. [1:20:38] I can't believe I didn't do that because we've come up with some good ones. [1:20:42] But I can't believe it. [1:20:44] Like the fake news, like now I sort of call it artificial news. [1:20:55] You know, we're getting rid of artificial intelligence and we're changing it to super [1:21:00] intelligence, which is because artificial is fake, just like the fake news. [1:21:07] Artificial is good. [1:21:09] But you look at his unhinged voting record in Texas. [1:21:17] Telefrico voted to allow dangerous repeat criminals and serial rapists to be immediately [1:21:23] released. [1:22:28] Is there anything like a Trump rally? [1:22:30] Is there anything? [1:22:31] I don't think so. [1:22:36] Now he's, he's gone back home to mom right now. [1:22:39] He's going to get the hell bowled. [1:22:40] Because what he doesn't know is that his mom voted for Trump. [1:22:52] So this terrible fake, and he is a fake. [1:22:58] He said all of a sudden, he's a vegan. [1:23:01] You know, my wife told me, sir, do me a favor. [1:23:04] You have to do me just a little bit of a favor. [1:23:07] It's not vegan. [1:23:08] It's vegan. [1:23:08] I don't know about that stuff. [1:23:10] I'm not into it. [1:23:12] And he said, it's vegan. [1:23:14] Please pronounce that word properly. [1:23:16] I called it vegan, vegan. [1:23:18] I thought, how the hell would I know? [1:23:20] I like steak. [1:23:28] She says hello to everybody. [1:23:29] Melania says hello. [1:23:32] He says hello to everybody. [1:23:33] That guy's got to lose a lot of weight. [1:23:57] So, Telefrico voted. [1:24:01] You know, many of these protesters are paid. [1:24:03] You know that, right? [1:24:04] Because you come in, and you know, they'll have like this perfect shirt on, made by the [1:24:08] best printer money can buy. [1:24:09] And they all have, I love when they all have the same exact signs, all beautiful pink and [1:24:14] purple and blue and all different colors. [1:24:16] And they're perfect, made by the same printer. [1:24:20] They're very expensive signs. [1:24:21] They don't make these signs. [1:24:22] They don't make these signs. [1:24:23] These are paid protesters. [1:24:25] They're paid by enemies of our nation. [1:24:53] Now, I'm telling you, they pay them for this. [1:25:02] But do we have a good time? [1:25:18] If there are paid protesters, please raise your hand and get the hell out of here. [1:25:30] No, but who's going to vote for the guy? [1:25:32] So, Telefrico voted in favor of defunding the police. [1:25:36] And he personally wrote a bill to strip Texas police officers of their legal protection, [1:25:44] because he wants to destroy the lives of your police officers. [1:25:49] He wants to be, think of it, he's a defund the police person. [1:25:53] He wants to destroy the lives of great people. [1:25:57] He called for the elimination of all prisons, and he personally introduced a bill to shut [1:26:03] down all five juvenile detention centers in Texas to let violent thugs and gang members [1:26:09] run wild in your streets. [1:26:12] You don't hear about that. [1:26:13] You don't hear about that because the fake news over there won't tell you what's happening. [1:26:22] He personally authorized a bill to force critical race theory and diversity, equity and inclusion [1:26:28] insanity into every public school. [1:26:31] He wants that crap to be in our public schools. [1:26:38] Whereas I fought for school choice, and we won school choice because of these people right [1:26:43] here. [1:26:44] Because of Dan, Ken, and Senator Cruz, we won school choice at a level that no other state [1:26:53] has won it, by the way. [1:26:55] It was an honor to help. [1:26:56] They called. [1:26:57] They said they needed a little help with about 10 senators, right? [1:27:00] And we called them up, but we got it done, Dan, didn't we, huh? [1:27:03] All of these people, everyone over here, all of these great congressmen that you have, [1:27:10] he authored the Texas version of the Green News scam, one of the great scams of all time. [1:27:14] You know, they used to call it global warming. [1:27:17] That didn't work because the planet was getting cooler. [1:27:19] So they went to climate change, remember? [1:27:21] Because that takes care of rain, sun, heat, cold, whatever. [1:27:25] Climate is climate change. [1:27:27] Remember, we were all supposed to be dead. [1:27:30] It was 12 years ago. [1:27:32] We will be dead with it. [1:27:33] That was AOC said that. [1:27:35] She made it up. [1:27:35] She never studied climate. [1:27:36] She wasn't a good student anyway. [1:27:38] Poor student. [1:27:40] No, she made it up. [1:27:42] Within 12 years, everybody will be dead from global warming. [1:27:46] Remember that? [1:27:47] That wasn't working out. [1:27:48] They changed. [1:27:49] I thought that was one of the greatest. [1:27:50] So from global warming to climate change, they used to have global cooling, global warming, [1:27:54] that global everything. [1:27:56] Climate change you can't miss. [1:27:58] No matter what happens, even if it stays the same, you say it changed. [1:28:01] And to completely eliminate your oil and gas industry and kill millions and millions of Texas jobs. [1:28:09] And they're getting smaller. [1:28:18] You know what? [1:28:19] They're getting smaller and smaller. [1:28:23] But Telefrico voted against designating the drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations. [1:28:30] He voted three times against walls. [1:28:33] He doesn't want a wall. [1:28:34] Let me tell you, I built almost 2,000 miles of wall. [1:28:38] And if we didn't build it, you'd have nothing. [1:28:41] He voted in favor of deadly sanctuary cities and to release criminal aliens to kill innocent Americans. [1:29:01] He said, just go on, forget them. [1:29:04] He's right, actually. [1:29:06] Telefrico even voted against a bill cracking down on illegal alien child traffickers and child smugglers. [1:29:13] He wants to protect them. [1:29:14] By the way, the one thing I learned about politics, I haven't been doing it that long. [1:29:18] You know that, right? [1:29:19] I loved building buildings. [1:29:21] I loved doing other things. [1:29:22] One day I said, let's give it a shot. [1:29:24] And this is what happened. [1:29:26] But one thing I learned about politicians, I know politicians well. [1:29:30] I've dealt with them all my life. [1:29:31] Whatever first comes out of their mouth, that's what they believe. [1:29:35] So he's got all this bad stuff. [1:29:37] Now he's making it up. [1:29:38] Now he says he loves meat. [1:29:39] But he's a vegan. [1:29:42] See, Melania, I got that right. [1:29:43] Vegan. [1:29:46] He's a vegan. [1:29:47] He wants to eat a piece of lettuce. [1:29:49] A little piece of lettuce, please. [1:29:52] But he's been seen. [1:29:53] You know, you haven't seen him in a couple of weeks. [1:29:54] I hear the guy's disappeared. [1:29:56] Nobody knows. [1:29:56] You know where he is? [1:29:57] He's sick because he's been forced to eat meat for political reasons. [1:30:02] And he's throwing up all over the place. [1:30:04] He's sick. [1:30:11] Now we're all looking. [1:30:12] Nobody can find the guy. [1:30:13] He's gone for two weeks. [1:30:16] You know, though, he'd go to barbecues. [1:30:18] Again, pure vegan. [1:30:20] He'd speak about... [1:30:21] Remember, he had a mask on three months ago. [1:30:24] Anybody wearing a mask in Texas three months ago is not going to be your senator. [1:30:29] That I can tell. [1:30:34] But he'd force himself to go to barbecues. [1:30:36] He'd have beautiful barbecues. [1:30:38] And he'd show up at a barbecue. [1:30:39] And he'd stuff from little ribs down his throat. [1:30:43] He'd have a little couple of bites. [1:30:45] He doesn't eat big. [1:30:46] He's not a big eater. [1:30:47] You can tell by looking at him. [1:30:48] But he'd eat. [1:30:51] And then what would happen? [1:30:52] He'd go to the back of the tent and he'd throw up all over the place. [1:30:56] Because he doesn't want meat. [1:30:58] We want our person... [1:31:00] You like meat a lot, I think, Ken. [1:31:02] I have a feeling Ken likes meat. [1:31:04] But your state is known for some of the toughest men and strongest women in the nation. [1:31:08] And that our nation has ever produced legends like Davy Crockett, Jim Bowie, William Travis, [1:31:22] who fought, who fought, fought the Alamo. [1:31:28] I want to go see the Alamo. [1:31:30] I like the Alamo. [1:31:33] Those Texas heroes would be rolling over in their graves at the mere sight of Telefrico [1:31:39] trying to become a senator from Texas. [1:31:41] The people of Texas are not going to let weak, gutless, self-hating trends, [1:31:48] gender-promoting freak shows destroy everything that we've built. [1:31:52] So you need to go and vote for Ken Paxton for U.S. Senate. [1:32:02] He's an all-star attorney general. [1:32:04] He's been, again, one of the greatest attorney generals in history. [1:32:09] Go vote for Ken. [1:32:11] We're going to see you soon in the Senate, Ken. [1:32:15] You're going to be helping us a lot. [1:32:17] You know, we've made more progress. [1:32:19] Don't worry about it. [1:32:22] The looks of a person. [1:32:53] But those are really bad-looking people. [1:32:54] You have to see. [1:32:55] They are bad-looking people. [1:33:08] The last time the radical Democrats had power, [1:33:12] they tried everything they could to punish and demolish this incredible state, [1:33:16] a state that we all built together. [1:33:18] You are having the greatest years in history in Texas by far. [1:33:23] There's never been anything. [1:33:25] But they gave it for four years, the worst inflation in American history, [1:33:34] a war on Texas oil and gas. [1:33:36] And the most evil of all, [1:33:38] they allowed 25 million illegal aliens to pour into your communities from 140 different countries, [1:33:47] including gang members, child predators, human traffickers, cartel murderers. [1:33:52] Think of it, 11,888 murderers, more than half of which committed more than one murder. [1:34:02] They allowed these animals into our country. [1:34:05] And they're mostly out of here now. [1:34:07] We got them out. [1:34:07] So just remember what it was like here in Texas when the Democrats were in charge. [1:34:14] In fact, take a look at this little video. [1:34:17] Texas after it's been forced to leave their way out to the cross of the North Bay International. [1:34:33] Border Patrol agents say they are struggling to keep up with this massive influence of migrants [1:34:38] descending on our southern border. [1:34:39] 12,000 people in a single day crossing the border illegally. [1:34:44] That's an all-time record. [1:34:46] It is quite a normal way to see the DHS that great insisting that the border is cold. [1:34:51] Do we have operational control? [1:34:53] Yes or no? [1:34:53] That's the definition of the border. [1:34:55] Is that the only definition you have, sir, up there? [1:34:57] No. [1:34:58] We don't have operational control. [1:35:00] No, sir. [1:35:00] We feel they've turned their back on not only the border control agents, [1:35:04] but they've sent a clear message to us to law enforcement. [1:35:06] They're not interested in solving this. [1:35:08] We need to ensure that the men and women out there controlling the border, [1:35:12] investigating these criminal cartels, [1:35:14] are actually allowed to do their job each and every day. [1:35:18] Why do we believe there's a cold in the border? [1:35:20] It's government, not first. [1:35:22] The border is open. [1:35:23] There was people there that traveled 8,000 miles with no water [1:35:26] because they're hearing that the border is open. [1:35:28] They believe that when the administration changed, [1:35:31] that the law changed and policy changed, [1:35:34] and that there was an open border. [1:35:36] We heard the sheriff say it, the governor say it, [1:35:38] and the migrant-sized voters say it. [1:35:40] They're coming across because they are being welcomed [1:35:44] under the Biden administration. [1:35:55] Wait a minute. [1:35:56] I'm not happy right now. [1:36:08] Getting a little bit thin up there. [1:36:10] I'm not happy. [1:36:11] This is not good news. [1:36:15] Now I'm depressed. [1:36:19] I said, I look really sharp tonight. [1:36:21] Then I just looked at myself from the back. [1:36:23] This is not good. [1:36:24] What can you tell me? [1:36:29] What can you tell me? [1:36:36] But you just saw that video, [1:36:37] and if Telefrico and the Democrats back in, [1:36:40] it's going to all be again. [1:36:41] You're going to have people pouring through. [1:36:44] You know, I watched a television interview the other day [1:36:47] about people that live on the border, [1:36:48] and a woman was great. [1:36:50] They're all great, but this one woman just said, [1:36:52] she said when Biden was here, [1:36:56] and the Democrats, [1:36:57] your great border czar who never showed up to the border. [1:37:00] We have Paul and all of the border people here tonight, [1:37:03] great people. [1:37:04] I dealt with them on a daily basis. [1:37:05] When Biden was here, [1:37:13] when Biden and Kamala, [1:37:15] Kamala was in charge, [1:37:20] she was the border czar. [1:37:23] Remember, she was the border czar [1:37:24] who never called one time. [1:37:25] She said never once did she call, [1:37:27] and they confirmed it. [1:37:28] Never once did she call border patrol, [1:37:30] and never once did she come to the border. [1:37:32] Other than that, [1:37:33] I thought she did a very good job. [1:37:34] It was a disaster. [1:37:37] It was a disaster. [1:37:39] But they interviewed a woman, [1:37:41] and a beautiful woman lived on a house near the border, [1:37:45] and she said it was living in hell. [1:37:48] She feared for her life. [1:37:49] People were running through her backyard, [1:37:51] knocking on her door. [1:37:52] Rough people, [1:37:52] not people like the fine people in this audience. [1:37:56] These are rough, rough, rough, rough people. [1:37:59] And they said, what was the difference? [1:38:02] She said the difference was like living in a different world. [1:38:06] He said, we feared for our life. [1:38:07] We had our doors locked, our windows locked. [1:38:10] We were petrified. [1:38:11] We sat there with guns on our lap. [1:38:13] We didn't know what was going to happen. [1:38:15] And with President Trump, [1:38:16] for the last almost year and a half, [1:38:19] we have not seen one person walking across our farm, [1:38:22] walking across our land, right? [1:38:28] And frankly, the only thing standing between you [1:38:34] and the migrant conquest, [1:38:36] the invasion that you had just two years ago, [1:38:39] for four years you suffered, [1:38:41] the only thing you have to stop that [1:38:44] is a guy named Ken Paxton, [1:38:46] a Republican that loves you, [1:38:49] and a president named Donald J. Trump. [1:38:58] Because we will not allow our country, [1:39:02] our culture, our history, [1:39:03] and our heritage to be looted and plundered anymore, [1:39:07] what they did to this country. [1:39:09] I said the other day, [1:39:11] if Kamala won or if that ideology won, [1:39:14] forget about Kamala, [1:39:15] if that ideology won, [1:39:17] I don't believe we'd have a country anymore. [1:39:19] I don't believe it. [1:39:20] And now we have the hottest country anywhere in the world. [1:39:24] And I will let, [1:39:33] thank you very much. [1:39:37] Thank you. [1:39:39] And I will not let my legacy of having the highest vote [1:39:44] in the history of Texas be tarnished or destroyed [1:39:48] by allowing that travesty to happen again. [1:39:53] And you know, [1:39:53] if they get in, [1:39:55] if they get in, [1:39:56] and remember, [1:39:58] like a guy like Tyler Frick, [1:39:59] it's basically one vote. [1:40:00] It's so important. [1:40:01] Forget about, [1:40:02] for Texas, [1:40:02] it's still just one vote. [1:40:04] It's a killer in Congress because we have a very close majority. [1:40:08] We can't let that happen. [1:40:09] If they get in, [1:40:10] they will open your borders and let the entire world [1:40:13] pour into our country like they did before. [1:40:16] And we can't let that happen. [1:40:18] We're not going to let it happen again. [1:40:21] Here today is a woman, [1:40:23] a special woman who knows firsthand the cost of the Democrats' [1:40:27] open border betrayal policy. [1:40:29] And it's really a betrayal. [1:40:30] Marie Vega was the proud mother of marine veteran and border patrol agent [1:40:37] as somebody who was unbelievable, [1:40:39] respected by everybody. [1:40:41] Harvey Vega Jr. [1:40:44] One afternoon in South Texas, [1:40:46] two illegal aliens let in by the Democrats, [1:40:48] just let in for no reason, [1:40:50] no checking, [1:40:51] no nothing. [1:40:53] Ambushed Marie and her family at their home, [1:40:57] began shooting wildly and trying to ransack their farm, [1:41:00] stealing everything in sight. [1:41:02] Harvey grabbed his rifle and returned fire, [1:41:05] but tragically he was murdered by those animals. [1:41:08] We're not going to let that happen again. [1:41:09] Marie, [1:41:10] could you come up? [1:41:11] Just pay homage, [1:41:13] love and respect to your boy. [1:41:15] Thank you. [1:41:43] So I'm not very good at speaking off the cuff, [1:41:46] so I have written something. [1:41:50] And because I just turned 65 and retired, [1:41:53] my... [1:41:54] So if I were you, [1:41:59] I wouldn't worry about your thinning hair. [1:42:01] You're still handsome. [1:42:05] My fellow Texans, [1:42:17] thank you and welcome to Texas, [1:42:20] to Texas President Donald J. Trump. [1:42:25] Thank you for bringing our stories to the forefront. [1:42:31] Thank you for supporting Angel families. [1:42:33] And thank you for supporting our wonderful border patrol [1:42:36] and ICE. [1:42:37] And letting them do their job. [1:42:40] They no longer have their hands tied behind their backs [1:42:46] like they did with Biden. [1:42:50] Texans, [1:42:52] doesn't the atmosphere feel so much better [1:42:54] when the President of the United States visits Texas? [1:42:59] As the President stated, [1:43:09] my name is Marie Herrera Vega, [1:43:11] and I am an angel mom. [1:43:14] Angel mom. [1:43:15] A title I didn't ask for. [1:43:17] And if I could go back in time, [1:43:19] I would do so in a heartbeat. [1:43:22] I'd go back to change what transpired [1:43:24] on Sunday, August the 3rd, 2014. [1:43:30] That day, [1:43:30] I lost my firstborn, [1:43:32] the oldest of my two pride and joys. [1:43:35] One of my two marines. [1:43:38] My border patrol agent son, [1:43:40] Javier Harvey Vega Jr. [1:43:43] For those of you that don't know our story, [1:43:54] it was a Sunday, [1:43:55] and we had a full day planned with shopping, [1:43:58] rifle sighting, [1:43:59] and preparation of hunting season. [1:44:01] Some quality family time, [1:44:03] barbecuing, [1:44:05] and to end the day, [1:44:06] some fresh water fishing [1:44:08] at our favorite fishing spot [1:44:10] in Santa Monica, Texas. [1:44:12] Everything was going perfect [1:44:14] until two career criminal illegal aliens [1:44:18] decided to ambush us [1:44:20] in an attempt to steal [1:44:23] two four-wheel drive trucks. [1:44:27] And without warning, [1:44:29] they jumped out of the stolen vehicle [1:44:30] they were driving. [1:44:32] And without warning, [1:44:33] they shot at us, [1:44:34] killing my Harvey [1:44:35] as he so desperately tried to protect us. [1:44:38] They shot my husband in the back [1:44:40] and continued shooting at everyone there, [1:44:44] including my two little grandsons, [1:44:46] and their friend. [1:44:46] In an attempt to protect our family, [1:44:50] I picked up the AR [1:44:52] that Harvey had reached for, [1:44:54] that Harvey had reached for [1:45:16] before getting shot in the chest, [1:45:18] and I returned fire. [1:45:20] And my husband, Javier, [1:45:31] returned fire with his .45. [1:45:33] Had we not been able to exercise, [1:45:40] exercise our Second Amendment right [1:45:42] to keep and bear arms. [1:45:44] None of us would be alive today, [1:45:53] and I would not be standing here before you. [1:45:56] Because those two scumbags [1:45:59] would have killed everyone there, [1:46:01] including women and children, [1:46:03] to eliminate any witness. [1:46:05] Thank you. [1:46:07] No one understands the impact that we face [1:46:15] when we lose a child [1:46:16] until you lose a child. [1:46:20] It's the midterms, [1:46:21] and your vote is needed [1:46:23] to stop the nonsense at the border. [1:46:25] Read my lips. [1:46:35] The border is closed. [1:46:47] Follow the necessary steps [1:46:49] to come to America. [1:46:52] Immigration laws need to be enforced. [1:46:55] Democrats will not enforce those laws. [1:46:59] Democrats choose to disregard immigration laws, [1:47:02] and they will continue to do so [1:47:04] if we allow them to run this country. [1:47:10] We have a right to keep and bear arms. [1:47:13] Democrats want to strip us [1:47:26] of those rights for their constituents. [1:48:26] They work for themselves, [1:48:28] and in order to do that, [1:48:30] they protect illegal aliens. [1:48:34] Democrats want to control [1:48:36] what we can and cannot do. [1:48:38] We must change that. [1:48:41] Do not use the, [1:48:42] ah, it's just one vote. [1:48:44] One vote won't make a difference mentality. [1:48:48] Think about it. [1:48:49] That mentality will cost us [1:48:51] because those uncast votes [1:48:54] will end up in their hands. [1:49:06] I'm from a little town [1:49:08] right by the border, [1:49:09] La Feria, Texas, [1:49:11] with a pop, [1:49:11] with a population [1:49:16] of maybe 7,000 more or less. [1:49:19] This little town [1:49:20] where just about everyone [1:49:22] knows each other [1:49:23] has lost three young lives. [1:49:25] These lives were taken [1:49:27] by illegal aliens. [1:49:28] In 1999, [1:49:30] Noemi Dominguez, [1:49:31] a teacher, [1:49:32] was killed [1:49:33] by illegal alien [1:49:34] Angel Maturino Resendez. [1:49:37] Some of you might remember him [1:49:38] as a railroad killer. [1:49:42] He was finally executed. [1:49:47] Yeah! [1:49:51] In 2014, [1:49:52] U.S. Marine [1:49:53] and Border Patrol agent [1:49:55] Javier Harvey Vega Jr. [1:49:56] was killed [1:49:57] by a worthless excuse [1:49:59] of a human being, [1:50:01] a career criminal [1:50:02] illegal alien, [1:50:03] Gustavo Tijerina. [1:50:04] Tijerina. [1:50:05] Over 12 years later, [1:50:07] he still sits [1:50:08] on death row [1:50:09] and who knows [1:50:10] how much longer [1:50:10] he'll sit there [1:50:11] exhausting American tax dollars. [1:50:22] In 2022, [1:50:24] Maria Macias, [1:50:25] a beautiful mother [1:50:26] of three gorgeous daughters, [1:50:29] was killed [1:50:30] by an illegal alien, [1:50:32] Bedein Alegria. [1:50:34] Alegria left the scene [1:50:35] of the crash [1:50:36] and is yet to be caught [1:50:37] and brought to justice. [1:50:41] Yes. [1:50:42] There is no doubt [1:50:43] in my mind [1:50:43] that all three young, [1:50:44] productive, [1:50:45] and outstanding individuals [1:50:46] of our community [1:50:48] would still be here today [1:50:50] had our immigration laws [1:50:51] been enforced [1:50:52] and our borders [1:50:53] had been secured. [1:51:04] We don't have an issue [1:51:05] with anyone coming to America, [1:51:07] but we do have an issue [1:51:08] with anyone forcing their way [1:51:10] into the greatest country [1:51:12] there is. [1:51:21] Again, [1:51:22] read my lips. [1:51:24] Come legally [1:51:25] or don't come at all. [1:51:38] This man right here [1:51:39] is what I voted for. [1:51:41] Not once, [1:51:42] not twice, [1:51:44] but three times. [1:51:57] And I think many of you [1:51:58] did as well [1:51:59] and many of you [1:52:01] would keep voting for him [1:52:03] if he could run. [1:52:27] I'm begging you, [1:52:28] get out and vote Republican. [1:52:30] This is the only way [1:52:31] we are going to prevent [1:52:33] these senseless killings [1:52:34] and this invasion. [1:52:48] Get out to the rallies [1:52:49] and let our Republican candidates [1:52:52] know what you want. [1:52:54] You want law and order [1:52:55] to continue. [1:52:57] Finally, [1:53:03] I'd rather endure [1:53:05] the name-calling [1:53:05] and be hated [1:53:06] for being a conservative, [1:53:08] Republican, [1:53:09] God-fearing, [1:53:10] law-abiding human being [1:53:11] than be a Democrat. [1:53:21] I leave you with this. [1:53:29] A small list [1:53:30] of innocent Americans [1:53:31] killed by illegal aliens. [1:53:34] The list is too long [1:53:35] so I've just added [1:53:36] a few names. [1:53:38] So these are just [1:53:39] a few of the names [1:53:40] that you need to remember [1:53:41] when you go vote. [1:53:42] Harvey, [1:53:44] Javier Harvey Vega Jr., [1:53:47] Ruben Morphin, [1:53:49] Amanda Bixby, [1:53:51] Lacey Ferguson, [1:53:53] Brandon Mendoza, [1:53:55] Ronald Da Silva, [1:53:57] Jamie Walden III, [1:54:00] Pierce Corcoran. [1:54:02] Come on, Texas. [1:54:04] Let's get out [1:54:04] and vote Republican. [1:54:06] Now let's make some noise. [1:54:19] USA! [1:54:20] USA! [1:54:22] What a great job. [1:54:46] That's from the heart. [1:54:48] That's from the heart. [1:54:49] Thank you, Marie. [1:54:50] We love you, boy. [1:54:53] Thank you, Marie. [1:54:57] So many stories like that. [1:54:59] So many people [1:54:59] would be alive. [1:55:00] So many great, [1:55:01] young, beautiful people [1:55:02] and older people too. [1:55:05] They don't discriminate. [1:55:06] They kill old, [1:55:06] they kill young, [1:55:07] they kill them all. [1:55:08] But that was beautiful. [1:55:10] Thank you, darling. [1:55:10] We appreciate it. [1:55:11] And what Marie is saying [1:55:17] is that we're always [1:55:17] going to stand [1:55:18] with the heroes [1:55:20] of law enforcement, [1:55:21] our Border Patrol [1:55:22] and ICE. [1:55:23] Where is Paul [1:55:24] of Border Patrol? [1:55:25] Is he around? [1:55:26] Where is Paul? [1:55:28] Paul, come here [1:55:28] a minute, Paul. [1:55:29] Just come on. [1:55:30] He's done such a great job. [1:55:33] Brandon, Paul, [1:55:35] he's a real great people. [1:55:38] Without them, [1:55:38] we're not safe, [1:55:39] let me tell you. [1:55:40] Without this group of people, [1:55:42] say a few words. [1:55:43] Like I said earlier, [1:55:52] 29 years I've been doing this job. [1:55:55] Five presidents. [1:55:57] And this is the only one [1:55:59] who has followed through [1:56:00] and secured the border [1:56:02] once and for all. [1:56:04] And it's going to take [1:56:12] every single one of you [1:56:13] to make sure [1:56:15] that that legacy stands [1:56:18] of a secure border. [1:56:19] And we can only do that [1:56:20] with the Republicans [1:56:21] seated right here [1:56:23] in the front. [1:56:24] We need to elect [1:56:25] every single one [1:56:27] of these Republicans. [1:56:28] We need Ken Paxton. [1:56:29] We need Ted Cruz. [1:56:31] We need every single one [1:56:32] of these. [1:56:33] And that will guarantee [1:56:34] that the Democrats [1:56:35] can never destroy this country [1:56:37] like they did before. [1:56:39] This is the greatest president [1:56:40] in the history of this country. [1:56:42] And we need to protect [1:56:43] his legacy. [1:56:55] And what a job he does too. [1:56:57] I know I dealt with him. [1:56:58] He was incredible. [1:56:59] His whole group is incredible. [1:57:01] They were unbelievable, [1:57:03] the job. [1:57:04] Think of it. [1:57:04] Nobody, nobody [1:57:06] coming through our border illegally. [1:57:08] Not one in 17 months. [1:57:11] Thank you, Paul. [1:57:11] Less than two years ago, [1:57:15] we inherited the worst border [1:57:17] in American history. [1:57:19] And today we have [1:57:20] the safest border, [1:57:21] the best border [1:57:22] in the history of our country. [1:57:23] We've never had [1:57:24] anything even close. [1:57:28] And again, [1:57:29] it's hard to believe. [1:57:30] Zero illegal aliens [1:57:31] in 17 months. [1:57:33] Who would think that's good? [1:57:38] We had 25 million [1:57:39] at least coming through [1:57:41] with the Biden administration. [1:57:44] On day one, [1:57:45] I also signed [1:57:46] an emergency executive order [1:57:48] to terminate [1:57:49] the Green News scam. [1:57:50] We ended the war [1:57:51] on Texas energy, [1:57:53] oil and gas, [1:57:54] and made it [1:57:55] the official policy [1:57:56] of the United States [1:57:57] of America [1:57:58] to drill, [1:58:00] baby, [1:58:01] drill. [1:58:11] And Texas, [1:58:12] as you probably heard, [1:58:13] is now producing [1:58:14] more oil [1:58:14] than at any time [1:58:15] in its history. [1:58:16] And we're distributing [1:58:21] that oil [1:58:22] all over the world [1:58:22] because when that war ends, [1:58:24] it's going to be very soon. [1:58:25] It's going to be very soon. [1:58:26] They're, [1:58:26] they're a failed nation. [1:58:29] They are a failed nation. [1:58:31] They got a little spunk left, [1:58:32] but not much, [1:58:33] not much. [1:58:34] We, [1:58:35] you know, [1:58:35] we took out more oil [1:58:36] out of the Harmo Strait [1:58:37] the last three nights [1:58:39] than at any time [1:58:40] in the history [1:58:41] of the Strait. [1:58:43] Took out more oil. [1:58:49] And just last week, [1:58:50] I announced a deal [1:58:51] that we reached [1:58:52] to build a colossal [1:58:53] new natural gas power plant [1:58:55] to lower your electricity bill. [1:58:57] It's going to be [1:58:57] the largest [1:58:58] anywhere in the world. [1:59:03] Less than two years ago, [1:59:05] the radical left Democrats [1:59:06] handed us [1:59:07] the dark age of America. [1:59:09] It was a dark age. [1:59:11] We suffered for four years. [1:59:13] We suffered. [1:59:14] But we quickly turned [1:59:15] that into the golden age. [1:59:17] We are right now [1:59:18] in the golden age of America. [1:59:24] Our nation is doing better [1:59:25] now than ever before, [1:59:26] but the fake news media [1:59:28] refuses to talk about it. [1:59:29] Those people right there. [1:59:31] And they don't like to report it, [1:59:37] but they know what it is. [1:59:39] Our record-setting numbers [1:59:41] are unbelievable. [1:59:42] So you know what? [1:59:43] They won't talk about it. [1:59:44] I'll do a little bit [1:59:45] of it myself. [1:59:46] It was just announced [1:59:48] that under Republican leadership, [1:59:50] incomes for hard-working Americans. [1:59:52] This is all federal numbers, [1:59:55] all done strictly. [1:59:57] This isn't by Trump. [1:59:58] It's not by a Democrat. [2:00:00] These are the people [2:00:01] that do the numbers. [2:00:02] All legit. [2:00:04] Our income numbers [2:00:05] have soared [2:00:06] to the highest level [2:00:08] per individual [2:00:09] ever recorded. [2:00:10] That's tough to be. [2:00:11] There are right now [2:00:14] more Americans working today [2:00:16] than at any time [2:00:18] in the history of our country. [2:00:20] More Americans are working [2:00:21] right now by far [2:00:22] than at any time [2:00:23] in the history of our country. [2:00:25] And that's despite the fact [2:00:32] that we cut way back [2:00:33] on federal payrolls [2:00:35] where you had 10 people [2:00:36] doing the job of one person. [2:00:38] We took out [2:00:39] over a million people. [2:00:41] If I wanted to add them back, [2:00:43] we have the greatest numbers [2:00:44] that it was, [2:00:44] but we don't want to do that. [2:00:46] That's not the way [2:00:46] you make America great. [2:00:48] And those people [2:00:48] didn't like me at first, [2:00:50] and now they love me [2:00:51] because they went out, [2:00:52] got a private sector job, [2:00:54] and they're getting [2:00:54] much bigger salaries [2:00:56] than they did [2:00:56] when they worked [2:00:57] for the government. [2:00:58] So it's a big deal. [2:01:01] The poverty rate [2:01:02] has just reached [2:01:05] its lowest level. [2:01:06] So the best poverty numbers, [2:01:08] lowest level [2:01:09] in American history. [2:01:11] Think of that. [2:01:12] African-American poverty, [2:01:13] Hispanic-American poverty, [2:01:15] and Native American poverty rates [2:01:17] are all at their lowest levels [2:01:20] ever recorded. [2:01:25] And as I said, [2:01:26] the stock market [2:01:27] has soared to 83 [2:01:29] all-time record highs [2:01:30] just in a short while [2:01:32] since the election, [2:01:34] a little more than [2:01:34] a year and a half ago. [2:01:36] And listen to this. [2:01:38] Exports have soared [2:01:39] to the highest level [2:01:41] in America. [2:01:42] In other words, [2:01:43] we make a product [2:01:44] and sell it to the world. [2:01:45] Highest level [2:01:46] in American history. [2:01:48] Remember when [2:01:49] the Democrats said, [2:01:50] we're not a manufacturing [2:01:51] country anymore. [2:01:55] Less than two years ago, [2:01:57] our country was dead. [2:01:58] Now we are the hottest country [2:02:00] anywhere in the world, [2:02:02] the most respected country [2:02:04] anywhere in the world. [2:02:09] In four long years [2:02:11] of crooked Joe Biden, [2:02:12] the Biden administration, [2:02:14] one of the most incompetent [2:02:15] and corrupt anywhere, [2:02:17] they got less than [2:02:18] $1 trillion [2:02:19] of new investment. [2:02:21] So think of it. [2:02:22] In four years, [2:02:24] about half a trillion dollars. [2:02:26] In 15 months, [2:02:28] it ended as a 15. [2:02:30] New numbers are coming, [2:02:31] make it even better. [2:02:32] But in the first 15 months, [2:02:34] we did $21 trillion [2:02:36] of new investment. [2:02:41] We're building plants, [2:02:42] factories all over the place. [2:02:44] All of our pharmaceutical [2:02:45] companies are coming back. [2:02:47] Eli Lilly, Merck, and Pfizer [2:02:49] are all coming back, [2:02:50] spending hundreds of billions [2:02:51] of dollars on new plant. [2:02:53] We're making our drugs. [2:02:54] And now we have a thing [2:02:56] called favorite nations [2:02:57] where our drug prices [2:02:58] are going down 50, 60, 70%. [2:03:01] We remember a short while ago, [2:03:05] we had the highest drug prices [2:03:07] in the entire world. [2:03:09] Now we have the lowest drug prices [2:03:12] in the entire world. [2:03:14] And Toyota, [2:03:18] a great company, [2:03:19] is pouring $3.6 billion [2:03:21] into its manufacturing campus [2:03:23] right here in San Antonio, [2:03:30] bringing Toyota production [2:03:31] out of Mexico [2:03:33] and back to Texas [2:03:34] where it started. [2:03:40] And our country [2:03:41] is doing so well [2:03:42] under Republican leadership [2:03:43] that only I can make [2:03:45] this promise to you. [2:03:47] And you know what that promise is? [2:03:48] And you can count on it. [2:03:51] If Republicans win [2:03:52] the House of Representatives [2:03:53] in the Senate, [2:03:54] if they win the House [2:03:57] of Representatives [2:03:58] in the Senate, [2:03:59] I'm going to give [2:04:00] all adult citizens [2:04:02] in the United States [2:04:03] of America $5,000. [2:04:06] And only Republicans [2:04:18] can do that [2:04:19] because the Democrats, [2:04:21] they can't do it [2:04:22] because we're taking in [2:04:24] massive amounts of money, [2:04:25] money like we've never, [2:04:26] ever seen before [2:04:27] in this country [2:04:28] through our tariff policy [2:04:30] and our record-setting [2:04:31] economic success, [2:04:33] numbers that we've never seen. [2:04:34] We have more factories [2:04:36] being built right now [2:04:37] than at any time [2:04:38] in the history [2:04:39] of our country. [2:04:41] But the Democrats [2:04:45] can't match that pledge. [2:04:47] They can't make that pledge [2:04:49] because their policies [2:04:50] won't allow this to happen. [2:04:52] In fact, the opposite. [2:04:53] If the Democrats win, [2:04:55] you will have a 1929-style [2:04:58] economic depression [2:05:00] in our country. [2:05:01] That's what's going to happen [2:05:02] is nobody knows numbers [2:05:04] better than me. [2:05:06] If the Republicans win, [2:05:07] you'll each have $5,000 [2:05:09] in your pocket [2:05:10] and economic success [2:05:12] for our country [2:05:13] like no other country [2:05:14] has ever seen before. [2:05:20] And just to prove the point, [2:05:21] remember, [2:05:22] just recently, [2:05:23] I gave all members [2:05:24] of the United States military [2:05:26] $1,776 [2:05:29] and everyone said, [2:05:31] oh, that can't be done. [2:05:33] And I did it. [2:05:35] And by the way, [2:05:36] I wanted to give them [2:05:37] a bonus [2:05:38] because they've done [2:05:39] such a great job. [2:05:40] How good did they do [2:05:41] with Venezuela? [2:05:42] How good are they doing [2:05:43] with Iran? [2:05:44] And I said to my people, [2:05:50] great people, [2:05:51] what can we give them? [2:05:52] Sir, we can do about $1,775. [2:05:56] I said, [2:05:57] let me get that straight. [2:05:58] We're at $1,775. [2:06:00] So $1 more at $1,776. [2:06:03] Mr. Controller, [2:06:04] can we afford $1 more? [2:06:06] Yes, sir, we can. [2:06:07] So let's do that. [2:06:08] And we're $1,776. [2:06:10] $1,776. [2:06:14] And everybody got it. [2:06:19] Everybody said, [2:06:20] oh, you'll never be able [2:06:21] to do that. [2:06:22] We did it. [2:06:22] And they got the money [2:06:23] and they've enjoyed the money. [2:06:24] I only say one thing [2:06:25] on the $5,000. [2:06:27] You have to spend the money [2:06:28] in the USA. [2:06:30] We're not interested [2:06:31] in you traveling abroad. [2:06:35] We call it the Trump dividend [2:06:38] is approximately $1 trillion. [2:06:40] But we have a record-setting [2:06:42] $21 trillion [2:06:43] that's being invested [2:06:44] in the country. [2:06:45] So when you think of it, [2:06:46] it's really easily handleable. [2:06:49] It is easily handleable. [2:06:50] And it's going to make [2:06:51] our people happy. [2:06:53] And they deserve it [2:06:54] because you lived [2:06:54] four years of hell [2:06:56] under Biden. [2:07:04] And recently, [2:07:05] and I think you probably [2:07:06] read it today [2:07:07] or yesterday in the papers, [2:07:08] my administration [2:07:09] also discovered [2:07:10] that nearly one million families [2:07:13] were being defrauded [2:07:14] by the last administration [2:07:15] under Obamacare. [2:07:17] They used Obamacare, [2:07:18] one of the worst [2:07:19] health cares ever, [2:07:20] by the way. [2:07:22] What happened was [2:07:23] that the Democrats [2:07:24] overcharged you [2:07:25] and we're giving you [2:07:27] that money back. [2:07:28] We're giving it back. [2:07:31] So, so we just sent out [2:07:35] to the victims [2:07:35] of this Democrat fraud [2:07:37] checks for $500 each, [2:07:40] including 139,000 families [2:07:44] from Texas. [2:07:45] Pretty good. [2:07:49] You'll get the money [2:07:50] within two days. [2:07:53] That's another one we did. [2:07:54] Everyone said, [2:07:55] well, sir, [2:07:55] you're not going to be able [2:07:56] to do that. [2:07:56] I said, really, [2:07:57] give me a shot. [2:07:58] I always do what I say. [2:08:01] If you look back, [2:08:02] promises made, [2:08:03] promises kept, right? [2:08:05] And here today [2:08:09] is one of those recipients, [2:08:11] Brent Grabloff [2:08:12] from Georgetown, Texas. [2:08:14] A great guy. [2:08:15] You want to come up [2:08:16] for a second, Brent? [2:08:16] Tell him what happened. [2:08:17] Come on up here, Brent. [2:08:19] Come on up here, Brent. [2:08:21] Oh, he's a good looking guy. [2:08:22] Look at this guy. [2:08:23] Looks like a movie star. [2:08:25] Hi, Brent. [2:08:42] Hey, y'all. [2:08:43] Thanks for having me up here. [2:08:44] My name is Brent. [2:08:45] I live just north [2:08:46] of Austin, Texas. [2:08:47] I'm a small business owner. [2:08:48] No wife, no kids, [2:08:50] relatively healthy. [2:08:51] And this year, [2:08:51] I paid over $15,000 [2:08:53] in health care costs. [2:08:56] My monthly premium [2:08:57] tripled ever since Obamacare. [2:08:59] And with the extremely [2:09:00] high annual deductible, [2:09:02] virtually everything [2:09:02] I pay is out of pocket. [2:09:05] I did, however, [2:09:05] notice the cost [2:09:06] of my prescriptions [2:09:07] dropped substantially, [2:09:08] which was awesome, [2:09:09] just like President Trump [2:09:10] just talked about. [2:09:18] So last week, [2:09:19] I received a $500 [2:09:20] surprise on the mail. [2:09:22] It was awesome. [2:09:22] I could use that money. [2:09:23] Anyone could use [2:09:24] $500 at any time, [2:09:26] of course. [2:09:26] So the U.S. Treasury, [2:09:28] along with a nice letter [2:09:29] from President Trump, [2:09:30] which really resonated [2:09:31] with me, particularly, [2:09:33] I feel like a lot [2:09:33] of hard work [2:09:34] in Americans [2:09:34] over the years [2:09:35] have almost been subsidizing [2:09:37] health care for others. [2:09:38] And it's not really right. [2:09:40] We're getting smoked [2:09:41] on monthly premiums [2:09:42] that are getting [2:09:42] out of control. [2:09:43] Friends of mine, [2:09:44] family of mine, [2:09:45] $400 a month, [2:09:46] $500 a month, [2:09:47] $600 a month, [2:09:47] $1,000 a month. [2:09:49] It's simply unbelievable [2:09:50] and we need to get [2:09:51] something changed. [2:09:52] I know President Trump [2:09:54] is working on it [2:09:55] and it's just a shame [2:09:55] that he always has resistance [2:09:57] from the crazy other side. [2:09:58] And we, Lord willing, [2:10:00] we could get [2:10:00] some bipartisan stuff [2:10:01] passed in Congress [2:10:03] with the Senate [2:10:04] and the House [2:10:05] and hopefully everything [2:10:14] goes as planned [2:10:15] and we're going to have [2:10:16] a giant red wave. [2:10:17] So President Trump, [2:10:18] thank you for everything [2:10:19] you've done. [2:10:21] President Trump, [2:10:28] thank you for everything [2:10:29] you've done for America, [2:10:30] everything you continue to do, [2:10:32] all the sacrifices you made. [2:10:33] I know everyone in this room [2:10:35] and anyone with common sense [2:10:36] could see it. [2:10:38] You know, [2:10:38] you're the best president [2:10:39] we've had in our lifetime. [2:10:40] God bless America. [2:10:41] Keep Texas red. [2:10:50] Thank you, Brett. [2:10:53] Wow. [2:10:53] What nice people. [2:10:55] We like Texas. [2:10:59] Yeah, but we're going [2:10:59] to get that for you. [2:11:00] Everything I said, [2:11:01] you're going to get, [2:11:02] you're going to get the 5,000 [2:11:03] and you deserve it. [2:11:04] Tonight, [2:11:05] I have more breaking news. [2:11:07] Our administration [2:11:08] has also located [2:11:09] billions and billions [2:11:10] of dollars [2:11:11] that were supposed [2:11:13] to be spent [2:11:14] on improving Medicare, [2:11:16] which it didn't get approved, [2:11:17] but they never were [2:11:19] and it never got spent. [2:11:21] So they tried to hide it [2:11:23] and by hiding it, [2:11:24] they tried to make [2:11:25] their numbers look better, [2:11:26] which was impossible [2:11:27] because the numbers [2:11:28] are so bad. [2:11:28] And we're giving [2:11:29] that money back [2:11:30] to American seniors, [2:11:31] as I promised. [2:11:32] And I'm pleased [2:11:34] to announce [2:11:37] that starting tomorrow, [2:11:39] over 20 million seniors [2:11:41] on Medicare [2:11:42] will receive checks [2:11:43] or deposits [2:11:44] for over $100 each, [2:11:47] including over [2:11:48] 1.4 million seniors [2:11:50] here in... [2:11:50] 1.4 million? [2:11:51] That's a lot of seniors [2:11:52] in Texas. [2:11:53] 1.4 million seniors [2:11:55] here in Texas. [2:12:02] So, I mean, [2:12:03] these are just small things [2:12:04] compared to what we're doing. [2:12:05] What we're doing [2:12:06] is the greatest tax cuts [2:12:07] in history, [2:12:08] the best economy [2:12:09] in history, [2:12:10] more money coming [2:12:11] into our country [2:12:11] in history. [2:12:12] But just think [2:12:13] of what we've accomplished [2:12:14] in much less [2:12:15] than two years. [2:12:17] I mean, [2:12:17] this is done [2:12:18] in two years. [2:12:18] Remember, [2:12:19] $21 trillion [2:12:20] versus a half a trillion. [2:12:22] That was four years. [2:12:23] Ours is 1.5 [2:12:24] or basically 15 months [2:12:26] to be exact. [2:12:28] Think of that. [2:12:29] So, the numbers [2:12:30] many, many, many, [2:12:32] many times. [2:12:33] Together, [2:12:34] we achieved [2:12:34] the largest drop [2:12:35] in violent crime [2:12:36] ever recorded, [2:12:38] despite the people [2:12:38] coming in [2:12:39] that we didn't want. [2:12:42] And again, [2:12:43] despite the invasion [2:12:44] of our country. [2:12:45] And remember, [2:12:46] we got most [2:12:47] of those hardcore [2:12:48] criminals out. [2:12:49] We got them out. [2:12:49] We're not nice [2:12:50] about it either. [2:12:51] The murder rate [2:12:52] is at the lowest level. [2:12:54] It's been in 125 years [2:12:58] since 1900. [2:12:59] Lowest murder rate. [2:13:05] I wish we could have [2:13:06] helped Marie [2:13:06] and the others, [2:13:07] I tell you. [2:13:08] I wish we could have. [2:13:09] They came in [2:13:09] through the Biden. [2:13:10] They came in [2:13:11] through the open borders [2:13:12] of Biden and Obama. [2:13:16] Thanks to our [2:13:17] Republican majorities, [2:13:19] I signed the great, [2:13:20] big, beautiful bill [2:13:22] delivering the largest [2:13:23] tax cuts in American history. [2:13:25] We gave you [2:13:26] no tax on tips, [2:13:28] no tax on overtime, [2:13:29] and no tax on social security [2:13:32] for our great senior. [2:13:41] And we added, [2:13:43] if you have, [2:13:44] like you buy a car [2:13:45] and you want to borrow [2:13:46] the money, [2:13:47] you have interest [2:13:48] on car loans, [2:13:49] it's fully tax deductible, [2:13:50] but only if the car [2:13:51] is made in America, [2:13:53] right? [2:13:53] Gotta be made in America. [2:13:57] And we abolished [2:13:58] all discriminatory, [2:14:00] diversity, equity, [2:14:01] and inclusion policies [2:14:02] throughout the federal government [2:14:04] and all in education. [2:14:06] We got critical race theory [2:14:08] and transgender insanity, [2:14:10] the mutilization [2:14:11] of your children out. [2:14:14] We renamed [2:14:15] the Gulf of Mexico [2:14:17] into the Gulf of America. [2:14:19] And thanks to [2:14:26] our Republican Congress, [2:14:27] we delivered [2:14:28] the largest ever investment [2:14:29] in the United States [2:14:30] Armed Forces [2:14:31] over $1 trillion made. [2:14:34] First time we've ever done that. [2:14:36] It's all made in the USA. [2:14:38] We only buy USA, [2:14:39] so it was a big thing. [2:14:40] Thank you, fellas. [2:14:44] We captured [2:14:44] the outlaw dictator [2:14:45] of Venezuela, [2:14:46] Nicolas Maduro, [2:14:48] and won that war. [2:14:49] We won that war [2:14:51] with no death. [2:14:53] None of our people, [2:14:54] nobody died. [2:14:55] We had the helicopter pilot, [2:14:56] the big handsome [2:14:57] helicopter pilot. [2:14:58] The leg was in bad shape, [2:15:01] but we did that [2:15:02] with no death. [2:15:03] Think of that. [2:15:04] It was a violent, [2:15:07] incredible, [2:15:09] beautiful raid [2:15:10] that was perfect. [2:15:11] Not like past administrations [2:15:13] where they have [2:15:13] helicopters bumping [2:15:15] into each other, [2:15:16] prisoners, [2:15:18] soldiers become hostages. [2:15:20] You remember, [2:15:20] I don't want to say who, [2:15:21] but plenty of them. [2:15:22] We know what we're doing. [2:15:24] We won Venezuela [2:15:25] in one hour [2:15:26] and 48 minutes. [2:15:28] And we decimated [2:15:36] the drug cartels [2:15:37] and drugs coming in [2:15:38] by ocean and sea [2:15:40] are down by 97%. [2:15:44] Boom, boom, boom. [2:15:49] And we're trying to find [2:15:54] the 3% [2:15:54] that are still doing it [2:15:56] because we consider them [2:15:57] to be among the bravest [2:15:58] people in the world. [2:15:59] And just as I promised, [2:16:02] I am ensuring [2:16:03] that Iran [2:16:04] will never have [2:16:06] a nuclear weapon. [2:16:07] Never. [2:16:10] They know that. [2:16:12] They know that. [2:16:16] And we'll be out of there soon [2:16:17] and you watch those [2:16:18] oil prices come down [2:16:20] like a rock [2:16:21] and watch everything. [2:16:22] Everything else [2:16:22] is coming down. [2:16:23] Oil is coming down. [2:16:24] You know, [2:16:25] we pay less than oil [2:16:26] and we did that whole thing [2:16:27] with, [2:16:27] because that was a big [2:16:28] operation [2:16:30] that should have been done [2:16:31] by past presidents [2:16:32] for many years. [2:16:33] It should have been done, [2:16:34] but nobody wanted [2:16:35] to take it on. [2:16:35] We had no choice [2:16:36] because we can't let them [2:16:37] have a nuclear weapon. [2:16:39] And I'll tell you what, [2:16:40] oil, [2:16:41] a little more, [2:16:43] maybe more than a little, [2:16:44] but a lot of people [2:16:45] thought it would be [2:16:46] three, four, five times that. [2:16:47] When I went in, [2:16:48] I thought it could be [2:16:49] much higher than that. [2:16:50] But we are paying less [2:16:52] than under the Biden [2:16:53] administration. [2:16:54] He didn't do anything. [2:16:55] He gave you [2:16:55] the highest inflation [2:16:57] in history. [2:16:58] He didn't do anything. [2:16:59] But you want to see trauma? [2:17:01] You want to see problems? [2:17:02] And I said it the other day, [2:17:04] let them hit. [2:17:04] A missile into San Diego [2:17:07] or Los Angeles [2:17:07] on the way. [2:17:09] Let them hit. [2:17:10] You want to see a horror show? [2:17:11] You want to see problems? [2:17:13] Let them hit San Diego. [2:17:15] Let them hit Los Angeles [2:17:17] and you want to see [2:17:17] some bad things happen? [2:17:19] You want to see a country [2:17:20] that would be in free fall? [2:17:21] We're not going to [2:17:22] let that happen. [2:17:23] We protect our cities. [2:17:24] We protect our country. [2:17:26] We're not letting that happen. [2:17:33] And they'd use it, too. [2:17:34] They'd use it. [2:17:36] They would use it. [2:17:37] We also recently announced [2:17:38] that we're going to deliver [2:17:40] final justice [2:17:41] to an evil killer, [2:17:43] the Fort Hood shooter, [2:17:46] Nidal Hassan, [2:17:48] who murdered 14 innocent souls [2:17:53] and wounded dozens more [2:17:55] here in Texas, [2:17:56] yelling, [2:17:56] Allah Akbar, Allah Akbar, [2:17:58] while he was doing it. [2:18:04] And we just found out [2:18:05] that President Obama [2:18:06] had the emails from Hassan [2:18:08] to a known terrorist murderer, [2:18:12] well-known, [2:18:13] saying he was going to wage jihad [2:18:16] against his fellow soldiers. [2:18:19] But Obama and his group [2:18:20] did nothing about it. [2:18:21] This was before they were killed. [2:18:27] So he's getting the death penalty [2:18:30] by firing squad. [2:18:40] And by the way, [2:18:40] Telefrico opposes that. [2:18:42] And he also, [2:18:43] because Marie, [2:18:44] she brought something up, [2:18:46] he wants to take away [2:18:48] your Second Amendment. [2:18:49] He wants to take away... [2:18:50] You're right. [2:18:52] And think of people [2:18:55] talking about [2:18:56] sitting in their homes [2:18:57] with a gun on their lap, [2:18:58] being petrified [2:18:59] that somebody's going to [2:19:00] break into their house. [2:19:01] And at least they have [2:19:02] some form of safety. [2:19:03] He wants to take away [2:19:04] and destroy your Second Amendment. [2:19:06] And I fought for your Second Amendment [2:19:08] for years [2:19:08] and not a thing has happened. [2:19:11] And that has not been [2:19:12] an easy fight. [2:19:15] And now I'm going to have the man, [2:19:16] now I'm going to have the man [2:19:18] that fought harder, [2:19:19] maybe than anybody I know. [2:19:21] Ted Cruz is one of them, [2:19:22] but Ken Paxson is the other. [2:19:38] Those two guys, [2:19:39] Ken Paxson, Ted... [2:19:40] And you know who else I'm seeing? [2:19:42] This guy is a fighter [2:19:43] and he wants no credit. [2:19:45] He wants no nothing. [2:19:46] Dan Patrick, [2:19:47] your Lieutenant Governor, [2:19:48] is unbelievable. [2:19:50] Thank you, Ted. [2:19:52] Thank you. [2:19:55] And all of you great congressmen [2:19:57] who I'm going to introduce [2:19:58] in a minute. [2:19:59] But you guys were amazing. [2:20:00] Thank you very much. [2:20:01] They protect your Second Amendment. [2:20:03] As long as we're around, [2:20:04] I promise you, [2:20:06] nothing's going to happen [2:20:07] with your Second Amendment. [2:20:08] But Telefrico [2:20:09] is a vote on the other side. [2:20:11] He wants to terminate. [2:20:12] He wants to end. [2:20:13] Not going to happen. [2:20:14] Not going to happen. [2:20:15] We won't allow it to happen. [2:20:16] Thank you, fellas. [2:20:17] Great. [2:20:18] They did a great job. [2:20:20] How many lawsuits [2:20:21] did you wage [2:20:22] on Second Amendment, Ken? [2:20:23] Like 30 or something. [2:20:25] He would sue every day [2:20:26] over the Second Amendment. [2:20:27] They wanted to take it away [2:20:28] for a long time. [2:20:29] That has been a tough fight. [2:20:31] But we're keeping [2:20:31] your Second Amendment. [2:20:32] We didn't do a thing. [2:20:34] We just literally, [2:20:35] we're keeping it. [2:20:36] We didn't shrivel it up [2:20:39] a little bit. [2:20:39] They said, [2:20:40] how about if we do this? [2:20:41] How about if we do that? [2:20:43] How about no AK-47? [2:20:44] How about no this? [2:20:45] How about... [2:20:45] I said, no, thank you. [2:20:47] No, thank you. [2:20:48] So good fight, fellas. [2:20:49] Good. [2:20:50] We achieved more [2:20:50] in two years [2:20:51] than any other presidency [2:20:53] in the history [2:20:54] of our country. [2:20:55] But now, [2:20:56] the radical-left Democrats [2:20:57] want to tear it all down. [2:20:58] They want to burn it down. [2:21:00] They want to pretend [2:21:01] like it never happened. [2:21:02] Every single Democrat [2:21:03] in Congress [2:21:04] voted against [2:21:05] our record tax cut. [2:21:07] They voted against [2:21:08] our no tax on tips. [2:21:10] They voted against [2:21:11] no tax on overtime. [2:21:12] They voted against [2:21:13] no tax on Social Security [2:21:15] for our great state. [2:21:16] Can you imagine? [2:21:17] They voted against [2:21:18] voter identification, [2:21:21] voter ID. [2:21:22] Every one of them. [2:21:26] They voted against [2:21:27] proof of citizenship. [2:21:29] Excuse me, [2:21:30] are you a citizen [2:21:30] of the United States? [2:21:32] We don't want them [2:21:33] to ask that question, [2:21:34] they say. [2:21:34] They voted against [2:21:35] proof of citizenship. [2:21:37] And he is the lead. [2:21:39] He's strong. [2:21:39] You go back [2:21:40] a year ago. [2:21:42] That's all he talked about. [2:21:44] Destroying your [2:21:44] Second Amendment, [2:21:45] voting against [2:21:46] voter ID. [2:21:47] I think he said [2:21:48] it was discriminatory [2:21:49] or something. [2:21:49] You know, [2:21:50] they couldn't, [2:21:51] they asked him a question. [2:21:52] You have to see [2:21:52] this one clip. [2:21:53] Why would you be [2:21:54] against voter ID? [2:21:55] Well, [2:21:56] let's see. [2:21:59] It's discriminatory. [2:22:00] That's right. [2:22:01] It's discriminatory. [2:22:02] These people have [2:22:04] the greatest line [2:22:05] of bullshit [2:22:05] I've ever heard [2:22:06] in my life. [2:22:15] They voted against, [2:22:17] he voted against, [2:22:18] but they voted against [2:22:19] and he fought for [2:22:20] like as much [2:22:21] as he can fight [2:22:21] in his other position, [2:22:22] which wasn't too high. [2:22:24] He voted in favor [2:22:25] of open borders. [2:22:28] He voted in favor [2:22:28] of the transgender [2:22:30] mutilization [2:22:31] of your children. [2:22:32] By the way, [2:22:33] he's going back to it. [2:22:36] Telefrico voted in favor [2:22:37] of men playing [2:22:38] in women's sports. [2:22:39] I don't know. [2:22:40] I looked at Roger. [2:22:43] Roger's a massive guy. [2:22:45] He was one of the greats. [2:22:46] Do you think [2:22:47] you'd be afraid [2:22:47] of women playing? [2:22:48] I don't think so. [2:22:50] I don't think so. [2:22:51] And it's actually [2:22:51] very demeaning to women, [2:22:53] very unfair, [2:22:53] very demeaning, [2:22:54] very stupid. [2:22:55] I just hope [2:22:56] they continue that policy [2:22:57] because I don't believe [2:22:58] they're going to be able [2:22:58] to win an election. [2:22:59] Men playing [2:23:00] in women's sports. [2:23:01] On election night, [2:23:03] Texas is going to prove [2:23:04] that America [2:23:05] does not belong [2:23:06] to those who hate it. [2:23:07] America belongs [2:23:08] to those who love it. [2:23:18] And James Salafrico, [2:23:21] wherever he may be, [2:23:22] we're looking for the guy. [2:23:23] It's been two weeks. [2:23:24] Where the hell is he? [2:23:25] Does anybody know [2:23:27] where he might be? [2:23:28] He hates Texas values. [2:23:33] He describes himself [2:23:34] as a Christian [2:23:35] who hates Christianity. [2:23:37] That's nice. [2:23:38] Says that God [2:23:39] is transgender. [2:23:41] Calls the American flag [2:23:43] a complicated symbol, [2:23:44] probably of hate. [2:23:46] He stated that he wants [2:23:47] to dismantle capitalism, [2:23:49] claimed that [2:23:50] the Ten Commandments [2:23:51] are a form of fascism. [2:23:54] And when asked [2:23:54] what he loved most [2:23:55] in the world, [2:23:56] he said, [2:23:57] transgender children, [2:23:59] which is a little different. [2:24:02] It's a little different, [2:24:06] you have to say. [2:24:07] But we can't play games [2:24:08] with different, can we? [2:24:09] We want good old-fashioned [2:24:11] Texas values. [2:24:19] So with that in mind, [2:24:20] you wouldn't trust him [2:24:21] to look after your child, [2:24:23] and you certainly [2:24:24] cannot trust him [2:24:25] to represent your state, [2:24:26] the greatest state, [2:24:27] one of the truly [2:24:28] incredible... [2:24:29] In history, [2:24:30] there's never been [2:24:30] anything like Texas. [2:24:32] Ken Paxton [2:24:33] has won victory [2:24:35] after victory [2:24:36] for the people of Texas. [2:24:37] And by the way, [2:24:38] with the voters, [2:24:39] he's won victory [2:24:41] after victory. [2:24:42] He's been through [2:24:42] the whole gamut. [2:24:44] And I'll be honest, [2:24:46] he's been treated [2:24:46] really, really unfairly [2:24:49] by the fake news. [2:24:50] He's been treated... [2:24:51] I hope you don't mind [2:24:52] my getting off script. [2:24:54] I've basically been off script [2:24:55] for the entire night. [2:24:56] But he has been treated [2:25:05] very unfairly. [2:25:06] The guy... [2:25:08] When are they going to say [2:25:09] he's the greatest [2:25:09] attorney general [2:25:10] in the history of your state? [2:25:11] But the greatest... [2:25:12] Maybe... [2:25:13] I've got to say, [2:25:14] because we have a couple [2:25:14] of good ones, Ken. [2:25:16] But maybe the greatest [2:25:17] attorney general [2:25:17] in the entire United States. [2:25:19] When are they going to say that? [2:25:21] When are they going to say it? [2:25:22] They don't want to say it. [2:25:26] And getting back [2:25:27] to the teleprompter, [2:25:28] isn't it nice to have a president [2:25:29] that doesn't have to read [2:25:30] a teleprompter? [2:25:33] You know, [2:25:36] you know, [2:25:36] we have crowds of miles. [2:25:38] Look at this place. [2:25:38] Every corner. [2:25:39] They'll say they spotted [2:25:41] an empty seat. [2:25:43] You know, [2:25:43] there are lines [2:25:44] that are two miles long [2:25:45] outside they can't get in. [2:25:46] We have nice big jumbotrons. [2:25:48] But I tell people, [2:25:50] please, [2:25:50] please do not leave. [2:25:52] Do not go to the bathroom [2:25:53] because the fake news [2:25:55] will take a picture [2:25:55] of two empty seats. [2:25:58] And they'll say, [2:25:58] Trump did not fill up. [2:26:00] Who the hell fills up [2:26:01] an arena like this [2:26:02] for a midterm? [2:26:04] For a midterm. [2:26:14] And what they do [2:26:15] is in the upper rows, [2:26:16] you'll see it, [2:26:17] they sort of migrate downward [2:26:19] and they all stay here [2:26:20] by the time we max out [2:26:22] everything that you've ever seen. [2:26:24] There's never been [2:26:25] anything like it. [2:26:26] We have all created together, [2:26:28] you more than me, [2:26:29] the greatest political movement [2:26:31] in the history of our country. [2:26:41] I mean, [2:26:41] we have as an example [2:26:42] a man in front of me, [2:26:44] Mr. Wall. [2:26:45] He's come to 619 rallies [2:26:51] and he's actually [2:26:53] a brilliant man. [2:26:54] They tell me he's brilliant. [2:26:55] I say, [2:26:55] what the hell's the story [2:26:56] with that guy? [2:26:57] They say he's a brilliant guy [2:26:59] and he is. [2:26:59] He looks brilliant, [2:27:00] but he's just sort of like [2:27:01] has a good time, right? [2:27:02] We have a good time. [2:27:03] We have a good time [2:27:04] talking about great subjects [2:27:05] and bad subjects, [2:27:06] but we have to have a good time [2:27:08] because we have to get the job done. [2:27:10] We're going to get the job done [2:27:11] like never before [2:27:12] and I appreciate you [2:27:13] and someday [2:27:14] I'm going to go out, [2:27:15] find out where he gets [2:27:16] that crazy suit, [2:27:17] all bricks. [2:27:18] It's all bricks [2:27:19] and I'm going to wear it [2:27:20] up here one day. [2:27:30] So, [2:27:32] Ken Paxson [2:27:33] has one other thing [2:27:34] that I love. [2:27:35] He sued the Biden administration [2:27:37] over a hundred times [2:27:39] and he won [2:27:40] almost every instance, [2:27:41] almost every lawsuit [2:27:42] and I love that, [2:27:44] Ken. [2:27:44] He sued Medicare fraudsters [2:27:47] and got back over a billion dollars [2:27:49] for Texas taxpayers. [2:27:53] He sued to stop [2:27:54] the radical left [2:27:55] from mutilating Texas children [2:27:57] and he won. [2:27:58] And Ken, [2:27:59] I know Ken spoke before. [2:28:04] I watched his speech [2:28:04] coming in Air Force One. [2:28:06] He was actually [2:28:07] a very good speech, [2:28:08] but I'm going to ask Ken [2:28:09] to come up just there for [2:28:10] for one minute [2:28:10] and say hello [2:28:12] because I'm very proud of him [2:28:14] and I think he's going to be [2:28:15] an unbelievable senator. [2:28:17] Thank you. [2:28:18] Come up, Ken, please. [2:28:27] Wow. [2:28:27] What is it like [2:28:28] to be up on stage [2:28:29] with the president [2:28:30] of the United States? [2:28:30] Pretty amazing. [2:28:31] I am so grateful [2:28:36] that you're here [2:28:37] and I'm so grateful [2:28:38] that he's here. [2:28:38] Aren't you guys glad [2:28:39] he came to San Antonio? [2:28:40] The thing I love [2:28:48] about President Trump [2:28:49] is he's here for us. [2:28:51] He's here for Texas. [2:28:53] He's here for America. [2:28:55] He believes in this country. [2:28:56] He's out fighting every day. [2:28:58] Mr. President, [2:28:59] how many days [2:28:59] are you traveling this month [2:29:00] around the country? [2:29:02] Every single day [2:29:03] he's out fighting for us. [2:29:06] How many presidents [2:29:12] have we had [2:29:13] that is doing [2:29:14] what he is doing for us? [2:29:16] So, Mr. President, [2:29:17] I want to thank you [2:29:18] for coming for me, [2:29:20] for coming for us, [2:29:21] and for coming for Texas. [2:29:22] We are going to win this race. [2:29:23] God bless you. [2:29:24] He's great. [2:29:32] Not a good guy. [2:29:33] He's also a good guy. [2:29:36] So you also need to [2:29:37] elect a proud 20-year [2:29:39] Air Force veteran [2:29:41] to Congress, [2:29:42] Carlos de la Cruz, [2:29:43] who's fantastic. [2:29:49] Carlos is running [2:29:50] against a disastrous Democrat [2:29:52] named Gianni Garcia, [2:29:54] who votes to make [2:29:55] Texas poorer. [2:29:56] He's a disaster. [2:29:57] So I'm going to ask Carlos, [2:29:58] come on up here [2:29:59] for a second, Carlos. [2:30:00] Come on. [2:30:02] We got to get him elected. [2:30:17] Well, first off, [2:30:18] thank you, Mr. President. [2:30:19] It's a true honor [2:30:20] for you to be here [2:30:21] with us tonight. [2:30:22] I first want to say, [2:30:24] you know, [2:30:24] thank you to our Lord [2:30:26] and Savior, Jesus Christ. [2:30:27] I thank him for, [2:30:38] I thank him for looking [2:30:40] over our country [2:30:41] and looking over our troops. [2:30:43] And listen, [2:30:45] I would be crushed [2:30:47] under the weight [2:30:47] of this campaign [2:30:48] if I didn't have [2:30:49] my wife on my side. [2:30:50] So I just want to say [2:30:51] I love you, Annette. [2:30:52] Thank you so very much [2:30:53] for being with me. [2:30:54] And many of y'all [2:30:58] may not know this, [2:30:59] but the single biggest reason [2:31:01] I decided to jump [2:31:02] into this race [2:31:02] in the first place [2:31:03] was because of [2:31:05] my teenage daughter, Rebecca. [2:31:07] I want to make sure [2:31:08] that her and her [2:31:09] entire generation [2:31:10] inherit a country [2:31:12] that is safe, [2:31:14] a country that is strong, [2:31:16] and an America [2:31:17] with full of opportunity [2:31:20] if you are willing [2:31:22] to go out there [2:31:22] and work for it. [2:31:23] Now, I want to make sure [2:31:30] that I'm going to work [2:31:31] with this administration, [2:31:34] our president, [2:31:34] to bring resources [2:31:35] back to our community. [2:31:37] And that's going to mean [2:31:38] making sure [2:31:39] that we protect our veterans, [2:31:41] making sure [2:31:45] that we protect [2:31:47] our seniors [2:31:47] and their Medicare [2:31:48] and Social Security, [2:31:49] and making sure [2:31:53] that we're protecting [2:31:54] the men and women, [2:31:56] the working-class families [2:31:57] who are chasing [2:31:58] the American dream. [2:31:59] So I'm going to ask you [2:32:03] to get out there [2:32:04] and vote, [2:32:05] bring three friends [2:32:07] with you. [2:32:08] God bless you. [2:32:09] God bless America. [2:32:11] Thank you very much. [2:32:11] Have a wonderful night. [2:32:12] Thank you very much. [2:32:33] We also need to get out [2:32:34] and vote for the chairman [2:32:36] of this campaign [2:32:37] that I have had [2:32:39] for a long time now. [2:32:41] He's been the best chairman [2:32:42] you can imagine. [2:32:43] He's also been [2:32:43] the best lieutenant governor [2:32:45] you could ever have. [2:32:46] Dan Patrick. [2:32:47] Go out and vote for Dan Patrick. [2:32:49] Thank you, Dan. [2:32:50] Great job. [2:32:52] And a man who just [2:32:54] had an incredible win. [2:32:55] He was against [2:32:56] a very good opponent, [2:32:57] very talented, [2:32:58] smart opponent, [2:32:59] Attorney General [2:33:00] Mays Middleton. [2:33:02] Thank you. [2:33:06] Great job. [2:33:08] And we have warriors [2:33:09] with us tonight. [2:33:09] We have a lot of you, [2:33:10] Congressman Randy Weber, [2:33:12] Michael Cloud, [2:33:14] August Pflueger, [2:33:16] and Nathaniel Moran. [2:33:18] Thank you very much. [2:33:19] Boy, what a good group. [2:33:21] Warriors. [2:33:24] And candidates for Congress, [2:33:26] Chris Gober [2:33:27] and Brandon Herrera. [2:33:29] All good. [2:33:35] They all should do well. [2:33:37] I hear they're doing [2:33:37] very well in the polls. [2:33:38] I hope so. [2:33:39] You better win. [2:33:40] You better win. [2:33:41] But they're great. [2:33:42] Every one of them is a star. [2:33:43] Going to help us a lot. [2:33:45] But I'm going to give you [2:33:45] a little personal story [2:33:47] on the next one. [2:33:48] Tano. [2:33:49] Tano. [2:33:49] Do you know who Tano is? [2:33:52] Tano Teherina. [2:33:54] Tano Teherina [2:33:56] is in the 28th [2:33:58] Congressional District. [2:33:59] And out of love [2:34:01] and passion, [2:34:02] he's running against [2:34:02] a Democrat [2:34:03] named Henry Cuellar, [2:34:06] who I helped, [2:34:10] who along with [2:34:10] Henry Cuellar's wife, [2:34:12] I gave a full pardon to [2:34:14] at the request [2:34:15] of his two daughters [2:34:16] because they said, [2:34:18] please don't let them [2:34:20] take my mother [2:34:21] and father away. [2:34:23] I received a letter [2:34:24] from the two young daughters. [2:34:27] They were going to go to jail [2:34:28] for a long period of time, [2:34:29] 15 to maybe 20 years. [2:34:32] And he's a congressman. [2:34:33] By the way, [2:34:34] his brother was just indicted [2:34:36] on virtually the same thing. [2:34:39] The brother was just indicted [2:34:41] on the same charges, [2:34:43] which was very serious. [2:34:44] But I read these letters [2:34:45] from the daughters [2:34:46] and I thought it was very nice. [2:34:48] He's a Democrat, [2:34:49] not a Republican. [2:34:50] In any event, [2:34:51] I did the pardons. [2:34:52] I gave him pardons. [2:34:53] I felt so badly [2:34:54] for the family. [2:34:55] It's the greatest power [2:34:56] a president has, [2:34:57] they say. [2:34:58] I've heard it for years, [2:34:59] the power of pardon. [2:35:00] Because you can create [2:35:02] a lot of wonderful things. [2:35:04] You gave him back [2:35:04] to the family. [2:35:05] I gave him, [2:35:06] and the mother, [2:35:07] both of them were, [2:35:08] going to go to jail [2:35:09] for a long time. [2:35:11] And I made no deal. [2:35:12] I didn't say, [2:35:13] oh, I'll give you the pardons [2:35:14] if you turn Republican. [2:35:15] I didn't say that. [2:35:17] No, I could have done [2:35:18] that very easily. [2:35:19] But we're a crooked politician, [2:35:21] would have done that. [2:35:22] But I thought there would be [2:35:23] a good chance [2:35:25] that Cuellar might say, [2:35:26] wow, he did something [2:35:27] really wonderful for me. [2:35:29] You know, [2:35:29] somebody has a heart. [2:35:31] And he was persecuted [2:35:33] by Democrats. [2:35:34] They went after him [2:35:35] like he was the enemy. [2:35:37] They didn't like him. [2:35:38] Nobody likes him. [2:35:40] But they didn't like him at all. [2:35:42] And he would have routinely [2:35:43] gone over [2:35:43] to the Republican Party [2:35:45] if we asked. [2:35:47] The people that saved him [2:35:49] from years in prison [2:35:51] was basically me. [2:35:52] I said, [2:35:52] I'm going to give him a pardon [2:35:53] because of the daughters. [2:35:54] They wrote the most [2:35:55] beautiful letter. [2:35:56] But shockingly, [2:35:58] after the pardon was given [2:36:00] and he and the wife [2:36:02] were freed up, [2:36:03] no more court cases. [2:36:04] The brother, [2:36:05] I won't be doing, [2:36:05] by the way, [2:36:06] I won't be doing the brother. [2:36:09] It runs in the family, [2:36:10] I guess, right? [2:36:12] Cuellar announced [2:36:13] only a few days later [2:36:14] that he was going to stay [2:36:15] and remain [2:36:16] in the Democrat Party, [2:36:18] the people that [2:36:19] persecuted him. [2:36:20] So many considered this [2:36:23] to be a tremendous act [2:36:25] of disloyalty [2:36:25] and certainly showed him [2:36:28] to be an extremely [2:36:29] ungrateful kind of a person. [2:36:31] I mean, you know, [2:36:31] I saved him from going to jail [2:36:33] for like, I think, [2:36:33] 15 or 20 years. [2:36:35] They were talking about [2:36:35] 20 years in jail. [2:36:38] His wife was going with him, [2:36:40] as I heard, [2:36:41] wanted him to turn [2:36:42] to the man [2:36:43] and the party [2:36:44] that helped him. [2:36:46] But he wouldn't do it. [2:36:47] He was afraid to do it, [2:36:48] I think, [2:36:48] because they're vicious, [2:36:50] the Democrats are. [2:36:51] And now they'll have [2:36:52] another chance [2:36:53] to put him in jail again, [2:36:55] I guess. [2:36:55] If they win, [2:36:56] maybe that's the only good thing [2:36:57] about them winning. [2:36:59] In any event, [2:37:00] the man running against him [2:37:01] is Tano Tahina. [2:37:03] He's a star [2:37:05] and hopefully he's going to win [2:37:07] and we'll call that payback [2:37:08] for a disloyal [2:37:09] and grateful person, [2:37:11] a person whose life [2:37:12] has been saved [2:37:13] only to go back [2:37:14] into the clutches [2:37:15] of the people [2:37:16] that tried to destroy him. [2:37:19] So Henry Cuellar [2:37:20] is a guy [2:37:22] who is considered [2:37:24] lowlife in Congress, [2:37:25] not respected, [2:37:26] and right now [2:37:27] should be serving [2:37:28] a long-term prison sentence [2:37:30] with his wife [2:37:31] in a top-level penitentiary. [2:37:35] But Tano, [2:37:36] a legendary baseball star, [2:37:38] great athlete, [2:37:38] respected county judge [2:37:41] and fine person, [2:37:42] will hopefully beat Cuellar [2:37:43] so that people [2:37:44] can show how bad it is [2:37:47] when you're recognized [2:37:50] and humiliated [2:37:51] as being one [2:37:52] of the most disloyal [2:37:53] political people [2:37:54] on earth. [2:37:56] And this has happened. [2:37:56] And I like to talk [2:37:57] about loyalty. [2:37:58] To me, I think loyalty, [2:37:59] now I don't know him. [2:38:00] I don't know if I ever met him. [2:38:01] I just felt very badly [2:38:03] for these two young girls. [2:38:06] But I thought [2:38:07] it was rather incredible. [2:38:08] I guess I expected [2:38:09] maybe he wouldn't run [2:38:10] or maybe he'd run [2:38:12] maybe as a Republican. [2:38:13] I don't know. [2:38:13] We didn't want to get involved [2:38:15] when we could have. [2:38:17] But I only wish [2:38:18] that Henry Cuellar's daughters [2:38:20] who begged for his survival [2:38:21] would have used [2:38:23] the same level of charm [2:38:24] to convince their mother [2:38:25] and father [2:38:26] to do the right thing. [2:38:27] So I'm very proud [2:38:29] of the fact that [2:38:31] I didn't make a deal [2:38:32] with great... [2:38:33] I actually got [2:38:33] such great publicity. [2:38:36] Everybody, [2:38:37] even the fake news, [2:38:37] the fakers back there, [2:38:38] they said, [2:38:39] well, say what you want. [2:38:40] He was pretty damn honest. [2:38:41] He gave him a pardon. [2:38:42] He didn't make a deal. [2:38:43] Isn't that nice? [2:38:44] I mean, [2:38:44] I actually got [2:38:45] very good publicity [2:38:46] to that, [2:38:47] Mr. Lieutenant Governor. [2:38:48] Can you believe it? [2:38:49] They thought [2:38:49] it was such a nice thing [2:38:51] to do, [2:38:52] but I could easily [2:38:53] have done it, [2:38:54] but relied on his character, [2:38:56] which turned out [2:38:57] to be a faulty one, [2:38:58] but that's okay. [2:39:00] So go out [2:39:01] and vote for Tano Trujillo, [2:39:04] on the other hand, [2:39:07] because he loves Laredo, [2:39:10] he loves all of South Texas, [2:39:12] but most importantly, [2:39:14] Tano loves [2:39:15] the United States of America, [2:39:17] and he'll be [2:39:17] a great congressman. [2:39:19] When you vote for him, [2:39:25] it's going to be a show [2:39:26] to people that disloyalty [2:39:27] and sort of, [2:39:29] I don't know, [2:39:30] maybe he was afraid, [2:39:31] he was frightened, [2:39:32] it was pretty bad stuff, [2:39:33] but we're going to be [2:39:35] voting for Tano [2:39:36] and we're going to show [2:39:37] the world that loyalty [2:39:38] does matter. [2:39:40] Loyalty does matter. [2:39:44] So also with us tonight [2:39:45] is a friend of mine, [2:39:47] and we started off [2:39:48] as being friends, [2:39:49] and we were really close, [2:39:50] and the press used to say, [2:39:51] well, [2:39:52] one of you two guys [2:39:53] is going to fight. [2:39:54] I said, [2:39:54] don't worry, [2:39:54] it'll happen, [2:39:56] and when it happened, [2:39:57] it really happened, [2:39:58] right, Ted? [2:39:59] But Ted Cruz has been, [2:40:00] we had just that little moment, [2:40:02] but Ted Cruz is a very special, [2:40:05] he's a very special guy. [2:40:07] So, [2:40:08] ladies and gentlemen, [2:40:09] Senator Ted Cruz. [2:40:10] Thank you, Ted. [2:40:15] Also with us [2:40:16] is a great negotiator. [2:40:18] He's done some phenomenal things. [2:40:19] He got back [2:40:20] all of the hostages in Israel. [2:40:22] He has made a deal with Hamas. [2:40:24] I mean, [2:40:25] all of a sudden, [2:40:25] everything's quiet. [2:40:27] He's working on the Iran deal [2:40:29] and doing very well. [2:40:30] I think the deal [2:40:31] isn't really something [2:40:32] that I want to do, [2:40:33] but they're willing to offer us [2:40:35] anything to stop, [2:40:36] and we definitely, [2:40:37] they will never have [2:40:38] a nuclear weapon, [2:40:39] but he's a great negotiator. [2:40:40] He's also a great person, [2:40:42] and I really chose him [2:40:43] for both qualities. [2:40:44] Everybody loves Steve. [2:40:46] Thank you. [2:40:53] A man who's respected [2:40:55] by everybody, [2:40:56] Texas Railroad Commissioner [2:40:58] Wayne Christian. [2:40:59] Wayne? [2:41:00] Thank you, Wayne. [2:41:04] Great guy. [2:41:06] Texas GOP Chair, [2:41:08] Dorinda Randall. [2:41:09] Thank you. [2:41:14] What a good job. [2:41:15] Well, [2:41:16] I can't complain. [2:41:17] We're 6-0, [2:41:18] including primaries. [2:41:19] A big music star, [2:41:22] country singer, [2:41:23] Neil McCoy. [2:41:24] Thank you, Neil. [2:41:30] And former president [2:41:31] of Goya. [2:41:32] Goya. [2:41:33] Bob Yunanwe. [2:41:35] Bob, thank you. [2:41:36] Where's Bob? [2:41:38] And Bob is going [2:41:39] to be presented [2:41:40] with something [2:41:41] in the not-too-distant future, [2:41:42] which will be [2:41:43] one of the greatest honors [2:41:45] of his life. [2:41:46] He's been with us, [2:41:47] and he represents [2:41:48] the Hispanic community, [2:41:49] and, you know, [2:41:50] he had great courage [2:41:51] early on [2:41:52] when it wasn't fashionable. [2:41:53] He came out [2:41:54] as a Hispanic [2:41:55] and a very good owner. [2:41:57] He owns Goya. [2:41:58] I like Goya. [2:41:59] I will get Goya [2:42:00] whenever I can. [2:42:02] I like Goya. [2:42:02] It's good. [2:42:03] But he... [2:42:04] I thought he was [2:42:05] going to lose his business [2:42:06] because the radical left [2:42:08] went after him. [2:42:09] Don't buy his product. [2:42:11] Don't buy... [2:42:12] And the opposite happened. [2:42:13] He sold so much product [2:42:14] he couldn't produce it. [2:42:16] Right? [2:42:16] I made him rich. [2:42:19] I made Bob even richer. [2:42:24] No, they would say, [2:42:24] don't buy his product. [2:42:25] You know, they want to always [2:42:26] boycott somebody [2:42:29] if they're people [2:42:31] with common sense. [2:42:32] If they love America, [2:42:33] they want to boycott you. [2:42:34] Can you believe it? [2:42:35] But he loves America, [2:42:36] and he likes me, I guess, [2:42:38] because he came out [2:42:38] right at the beginning, [2:42:40] and they wanted us. [2:42:41] They wanted everybody [2:42:42] to boycott. [2:42:42] He just literally, [2:42:43] he tripled, quadrupled [2:42:44] his sales. [2:42:45] His company's much bigger, [2:42:46] stronger. [2:42:47] And we love it, [2:42:48] and we love you. [2:42:48] Thank you. [2:42:50] And here's a special [2:42:51] little treat. [2:42:53] And to me, [2:42:53] it's an easy one. [2:42:57] There's a man named [2:42:57] Roger Clemens, [2:42:58] that big, strong guy. [2:43:02] And he wanted to play golf [2:43:04] with me for years. [2:43:05] We talked about it. [2:43:06] We'll play. [2:43:07] We won't. [2:43:07] You know, [2:43:07] it's sometimes tough. [2:43:09] He lives here. [2:43:09] I live in a different [2:43:11] part of the world, [2:43:12] commonly known [2:43:12] as the Oval Office. [2:43:14] But he wanted to play. [2:43:16] One day, [2:43:16] we got to play, [2:43:17] and he played with his son, [2:43:18] a fantastic young guy, [2:43:20] handsome guy. [2:43:21] But Roger, [2:43:22] she just said, [2:43:23] who won? [2:43:24] Wise guy. [2:43:25] You got to be a wise guy. [2:43:26] Only in Texas [2:43:27] could this happen. [2:43:29] But I stand on the first tee [2:43:31] with Roger finally [2:43:32] after years [2:43:32] of sort of wanting [2:43:33] to get together. [2:43:34] He liked my stuff, [2:43:36] and I like his fastball, [2:43:38] frankly. [2:43:40] But I stood on the tee, [2:43:42] and I said, [2:43:42] Roger, [2:43:42] let me ask you, [2:43:44] how many games [2:43:45] have you won? [2:43:47] Now, [2:43:47] I play with a lot [2:43:48] of baseball players. [2:43:49] I like golf. [2:43:50] It's my only form [2:43:51] of exercise. [2:43:51] That's about it. [2:43:53] That's good. [2:43:53] My knees are fine. [2:43:54] My back, [2:43:55] all these guys, [2:43:55] they work out [2:43:56] all the time, [2:43:56] and then you find [2:43:57] that they're 65 years old. [2:43:58] They're having a new [2:43:59] back put in, [2:44:01] new shoulders, [2:44:01] new knees. [2:44:02] So I don't know. [2:44:04] I sort of like [2:44:05] the way I'm doing it. [2:44:06] But I said, [2:44:07] Roger, [2:44:07] how many games [2:44:08] did you win? [2:44:09] You did very well, [2:44:09] didn't you? [2:44:10] Because I play with guys [2:44:11] that won 60, [2:44:11] 70 games, [2:44:12] and they're well-known stars. [2:44:14] Yes, sir. [2:44:15] I won 354 games. [2:44:16] 354! [2:44:18] I said, [2:44:21] did you ever win [2:44:22] the Cy Young Award? [2:44:23] That's the best pitcher [2:44:24] in baseball. [2:44:25] Yes, sir. [2:44:25] I won it seven times. [2:44:26] You won it seven times, [2:44:27] Roger. [2:44:28] You got to be kidding. [2:44:29] That's the most [2:44:30] in the history [2:44:31] of baseball. [2:44:32] He had 4,672 [2:44:36] career strikeouts, [2:44:38] which is second or third [2:44:40] in the history of baseball. [2:44:41] He won two World Series. [2:44:43] He was MVP, [2:44:44] and he's also the only pitcher [2:44:46] in the history [2:44:46] of Major League Baseball [2:44:48] to have multiple [2:44:50] 20 strikeout games. [2:44:52] Did you ever see a 20? [2:44:53] I saw one 20 strikeout. [2:44:54] I couldn't believe it. [2:44:55] That means you strike out [2:44:56] almost every player. [2:44:57] I mean, it's crazy. [2:44:59] He should be [2:45:00] in the Hall of Fame. [2:45:01] Now, I said, [2:45:03] why aren't you [2:45:04] in the Hall of Fame? [2:45:05] I said, [2:45:05] I actually said it [2:45:06] a little innocently. [2:45:07] I said, [2:45:08] Roger, when did you [2:45:09] go to the Hall of Fame? [2:45:10] Think of it. [2:45:11] I play with a guy [2:45:12] who won 101 games. [2:45:13] He's a big name. [2:45:14] You would have known him. [2:45:14] I won't embarrass him [2:45:15] because it ain't 354. [2:45:18] But I said, [2:45:19] when did you get inducted [2:45:21] into the Hall of Fame? [2:45:22] He said, [2:45:22] I haven't been inducted. [2:45:23] I said, [2:45:24] you got to be kidding [2:45:25] because he's got, [2:45:27] certainly he's [2:45:27] the greatest modern pitcher. [2:45:30] You go back 20, 30, [2:45:31] nobody has anything [2:45:32] like this. [2:45:33] 350. [2:45:33] I'm used to saying, [2:45:35] hi, Jim, [2:45:36] how many games [2:45:37] did you win? [2:45:38] Sir, I won 109. [2:45:40] I won 112. [2:45:42] And they're stars. [2:45:43] This guy says, [2:45:44] I won 300. [2:45:45] I thought he was kidding. [2:45:47] That's 22 years of winning. [2:45:49] I worked hard [2:45:49] to get a man named [2:45:51] Pete Rose [2:45:52] into the Baseball [2:45:53] Hall of Fame [2:45:53] before he died. [2:45:58] And Pete was sort of [2:45:59] a friend of mine, [2:46:00] but more than a friend, [2:46:02] I used to watch him. [2:46:03] Charlie Hustle, [2:46:03] what the heck, [2:46:04] I was a great player, right? [2:46:05] He had 4,256 hits, [2:46:10] a record they say [2:46:11] probably can never be broken, [2:46:13] probably can't. [2:46:15] And I called [2:46:15] the commissioner of baseball, [2:46:17] he's a nice guy, [2:46:17] and I said, [2:46:19] commissioner, [2:46:19] you got to let this guy in. [2:46:21] He's waited for years, [2:46:22] like what, [2:46:23] 40 years or something. [2:46:24] You got to let him in. [2:46:25] Charlie Hustle. [2:46:26] And he may be gambling. [2:46:27] Today you're allowed [2:46:28] to gamble in games. [2:46:29] How about that? [2:46:30] You're allowed to gamble. [2:46:32] Poor guy. [2:46:33] Bad timing. [2:46:34] You know, [2:46:34] life is all about timing. [2:46:36] But he always bet [2:46:36] on his own team. [2:46:38] So I'm not saying [2:46:39] right or wrong, [2:46:40] but you're betting [2:46:40] on your own. [2:46:41] Now, if he bets [2:46:41] on the other team, [2:46:42] that's not a good thing. [2:46:43] But he bet [2:46:44] on his own team. [2:46:45] He's a highly competitive guy. [2:46:46] I knew him a little bit. [2:46:47] He was jolly hustle. [2:46:49] So the commissioner [2:46:50] told me he was going [2:46:51] to do it, [2:46:52] but it took him [2:46:53] a long time. [2:46:54] He waited and waited. [2:46:56] I called him, [2:46:56] when are you doing it? [2:46:57] Oh, I'm going to do it. [2:47:00] And he announced it [2:47:01] right after Pete died. [2:47:03] I wasn't thrilled [2:47:04] with the commissioner. [2:47:06] And I likewise [2:47:08] called up [2:47:09] about eight months ago, [2:47:12] after I played [2:47:13] a round of golf [2:47:13] with Roger. [2:47:15] And we had a great time. [2:47:17] He's an amazing guy. [2:47:20] And I said, [2:47:20] I'm going to call [2:47:21] the commissioner of baseball. [2:47:22] It's a ridiculous thing [2:47:23] that you're not [2:47:24] in the Hall of Fame [2:47:24] with that kind of a record. [2:47:26] He's got that. [2:47:27] He won seven Cy Young. [2:47:28] That means seven years. [2:47:31] If you win one, [2:47:31] you're a superstar. [2:47:33] If you win one, [2:47:33] you go to the Hall of Fame [2:47:34] for the most part. [2:47:35] You win two, [2:47:36] you're guaranteed. [2:47:37] He won seven [2:47:37] and they didn't take him. [2:47:39] And by the way, [2:47:39] people talk drugs. [2:47:40] He never admitted to anything. [2:47:41] They have no information. [2:47:43] They didn't find anything. [2:47:44] It's not like, [2:47:45] oh, geez, [2:47:45] load it up. [2:47:46] He never admitted to anything. [2:47:48] He's just a physical monster. [2:47:50] OK, he is. [2:47:51] He's a big, strong. [2:47:53] And he just, [2:47:54] he was great. [2:47:56] Now, he did have [2:47:57] a couple of problems. [2:47:58] He was known [2:47:59] for two things [2:48:00] as a pitcher, [2:48:01] power and accuracy. [2:48:05] I said, [2:48:05] then, Roger, [2:48:05] how come you hit [2:48:06] more batters [2:48:07] than any other pitcher [2:48:08] in history, [2:48:08] which is, [2:48:09] he hit more batters [2:48:12] than any. [2:48:13] And when he hit you, [2:48:14] it hurt. [2:48:15] You know, [2:48:15] when you have a ball [2:48:16] going at 99 miles an hour [2:48:18] and it's aimed at your head. [2:48:19] So Roger had some problems [2:48:20] and he told me [2:48:22] part of the difficulty [2:48:23] is the people [2:48:24] that are on the board [2:48:24] were people [2:48:25] that he played against. [2:48:26] And sir, [2:48:26] they all hate me [2:48:27] because he's the most, [2:48:29] we want competitive guys. [2:48:31] So tonight, [2:48:32] I'm pleased to announce [2:48:33] that we are taking it [2:48:35] into our own hands. [2:48:37] Forget about [2:48:37] the Hall of Fame. [2:48:39] He'll get there someday. [2:48:40] I mean, [2:48:40] I don't know [2:48:41] how they can keep him out. [2:48:42] I don't know [2:48:43] how the hell [2:48:43] they keep him out. [2:48:45] But tonight, [2:48:45] I'm announcing [2:48:46] that Roger Clemens [2:48:48] is being given [2:48:49] the single highest award [2:48:51] along with the Medal of Honor, [2:48:54] the Congressional Medal of Honor. [2:48:55] That's for military. [2:48:57] This is for civilians. [2:48:59] We're giving him [2:48:59] the Presidential Medal of Freedom. [2:49:03] And along with [2:49:05] the Congressional Medal of Honor, [2:49:07] it's the highest award [2:49:08] bestowed upon anyone. [2:49:10] And Roger, [2:49:12] get up here, Roger. [2:49:14] Get up here. [2:49:19] So he'll be [2:49:20] in the Hall of Fame someday, [2:49:21] but he deserves it. [2:49:23] One of the greatest athletes [2:49:24] and maybe the greatest pitcher [2:49:26] of all time. [2:49:28] And he deserves [2:49:29] to be in the Hall of Fame. [2:49:30] But this is a big step up [2:49:32] from the Hall of Fame. [2:49:33] The Presidential Medal of Freedom. [2:49:36] Thank you, Roger. [2:49:47] Well, I'm stunned, [2:49:49] number one. [2:49:50] And again, [2:49:51] 24 years, y'all. [2:49:54] This supersedes anything [2:49:56] that obviously I've done [2:49:57] in my playing career. [2:49:59] And to get it from this man, [2:50:00] this president, [2:50:01] there wouldn't be another [2:50:01] president I'd want to get it from. [2:50:10] And announce it here [2:50:11] in my home state. [2:50:12] And again, [2:50:13] from this man, [2:50:14] you're talking about a winner. [2:50:15] That's a winner right there. [2:50:17] You see it. [2:50:21] And the way he talked [2:50:22] about all my stats, [2:50:24] he could be my agent. [2:50:25] I guess I could come out [2:50:26] of retirement again, [2:50:27] all those stats he wrote. [2:50:28] But I don't think [2:50:29] that I lead Major League Baseball [2:50:31] and hit batters, [2:50:32] Mr. President. [2:50:33] And besides that, [2:50:35] when you let it go inside, [2:50:36] it's the hitter's job [2:50:37] to get out of the way, right? [2:50:38] Okay. [2:50:39] I can't thank you enough. [2:50:40] That's a huge honor. [2:50:42] I am stunned. [2:50:43] And again, [2:50:43] thank you all very much. [2:50:45] So just to finish up, [2:50:56] the fake news media [2:50:57] is trying to demoralize [2:50:59] Republican voters [2:51:00] with bad journalism [2:51:01] and rigged polls, [2:51:03] all sorts of things. [2:51:04] But as you can see here tonight, [2:51:06] look, [2:51:06] you have thousands [2:51:07] of people outside. [2:51:09] As you can see, [2:51:09] those big jumbotrons [2:51:11] are working full speed. [2:51:12] But as you can see, [2:51:13] this movement [2:51:14] is maybe stronger than ever. [2:51:16] And now what we have to do [2:51:17] is come out and vote. [2:51:18] We're going to show you [2:51:19] a chart that just came up [2:51:20] from CNN. [2:51:22] Just look at this. [2:51:39] Can you believe [2:51:39] that CNN did that? [2:51:40] Whoever did that chart [2:51:41] is going to get fired tomorrow. [2:51:43] So we're at 98, 99%. [2:51:47] We're getting approval numbers [2:51:49] that are phenomenal. [2:51:50] The real numbers [2:51:50] are phenomenal. [2:51:52] If we ran against [2:51:53] any of their candidates, [2:51:55] we'd win by 25, 30 points. [2:51:57] They don't have any candidates. [2:51:58] Their candidates are terrible. [2:52:00] But we have a different [2:52:01] thing tonight. [2:52:02] We have to get our candidates [2:52:04] elected in Texas. [2:52:05] That's more important. [2:52:07] And we're going to be able [2:52:11] to do that. [2:52:12] I just want to say this. [2:52:14] This has been a very, [2:52:16] very special place to me. [2:52:18] I believe. [2:52:20] Thank you. [2:52:29] Thank you. [2:52:30] Should I put up [2:52:31] the second chart? [2:52:33] Go ahead. [2:52:33] Put it up. [2:52:34] Okay. [2:52:41] MAGA GOP on Trump. [2:52:43] In the 2024 election, [2:52:44] President Kamala Harris [2:52:45] got 99% of the MAGA GOP vote. [2:52:49] Perhaps surprisingly, [2:52:50] it might go to be 100%, [2:52:51] but it was 99%. [2:52:52] Compare that to his approval rating [2:52:54] now at the MAGA GOP. [2:52:56] It's 98%. [2:52:57] That is, there's been no real [2:52:59] decline in MAGA support. [2:53:01] These folks say that [2:53:02] they're going to vote [2:53:03] for congressional Republicans [2:53:04] come to the midterm election. [2:53:06] Again, that's the 99% [2:53:07] that Trump got against Kamala Harris. [2:53:09] Look now, [2:53:10] in terms of the congressional [2:53:11] vote, 98% on the savings [2:53:13] of the voting [2:53:13] and the House of the Panthers. [2:53:15] So that support is [2:53:16] really holding it strong. [2:53:18] It's really, really strong [2:53:20] when it comes to MAGA GOP [2:53:22] and Republicans [2:53:23] holding on to that vote. [2:53:26] The president of Republicans [2:53:27] most admire [2:53:28] is Donald Trump. [2:53:30] This is a historic comparison. [2:53:31] The majority of Republicans [2:53:33] say, 53% say, [2:53:34] he's the Republican president [2:53:35] and most admire. [2:53:37] While Reagan, [2:53:37] who traditionally has won [2:53:39] that, [2:53:39] Donald Trump [2:53:40] nearly triples up on this. [2:53:42] Reagan is just 18%. [2:53:43] And then Abraham Lincoln, [2:53:45] who by most historic accounts [2:53:47] is the greatest president [2:53:48] of all time. [2:53:49] But Republicans [2:53:49] say that the president [2:53:51] that they most admire [2:53:52] by what is this, [2:53:53] this is six, [2:53:54] seven times as many, [2:53:55] Donald John Trump [2:53:56] at 53%. [2:53:57] East with pressure [2:53:58] with Abe Lincoln [2:53:59] at 80%. [2:53:59] And the Elon Musk [2:54:00] will be the greatest president [2:54:02] of the world. [2:54:02] Thank you. [2:54:09] Whoa! [2:54:10] I didn't see that. [2:54:13] Thank you very much. [2:54:14] Well, that's it. [2:54:15] I mean, that's it. [2:54:16] Thank you. [2:54:18] So, as a, [2:54:27] just a quick recap, [2:54:29] here's what we'll do [2:54:30] with your support [2:54:31] for a Republican House [2:54:32] and a Republican Senate. [2:54:34] Vote for Ken. [2:54:35] Get him in there. [2:54:36] It's so important. [2:54:37] It's vital. [2:54:38] And I think you will. [2:54:39] I think it's, [2:54:40] there's no way [2:54:41] you vote for the other guy. [2:54:42] There's no way. [2:54:43] As I said, [2:54:44] I will issue a Trump dividend [2:54:46] of $5,000 [2:54:47] to every adult citizen. [2:54:48] We will make all [2:54:51] Trump tax cuts. [2:54:53] We're going to make [2:54:54] all of those big tax cuts, [2:54:55] including no tax on tips, [2:54:58] no tax on overtime, [2:54:59] no tax on Social Security [2:55:01] for our great cities. [2:55:02] We're going to make [2:55:02] them all permanent. [2:55:04] We will win the war [2:55:06] on corruption and fraud [2:55:07] led by our great [2:55:08] Vice President, [2:55:09] Jay D. Vance. [2:55:11] Doing good. [2:55:13] And by the way, [2:55:14] in Minnesota [2:55:14] and all over the country, [2:55:16] we're finding tens [2:55:17] of billions of dollars. [2:55:19] It's so corrupt. [2:55:21] We will pass [2:55:22] the No Invasion [2:55:23] of Our Country Act, [2:55:24] prohibiting any future [2:55:26] president from ever [2:55:27] opening our borders [2:55:28] to illegal immigrants. [2:55:31] And we will pass [2:55:35] a truly great [2:55:36] health care plan [2:55:37] that will stop [2:55:38] all payments [2:55:39] to big insurance companies [2:55:40] which own [2:55:41] the Democrat Party. [2:55:42] Everyone, [2:55:43] they own the party. [2:55:45] The Democrats [2:55:45] won't do anything [2:55:46] without those [2:55:47] insurance companies. [2:55:48] They pay them billions. [2:55:50] We will give [2:55:51] all of those billions [2:55:52] of dollars [2:55:53] directly to you, [2:55:54] the people, [2:55:55] so you can buy [2:55:55] your own health care, [2:55:57] which is better health care, [2:55:58] and have money [2:55:59] left over for yourselves. [2:56:01] We will immediately [2:56:05] end no cash bail [2:56:07] and we will pass [2:56:08] the death penalty [2:56:09] of large-scale [2:56:09] drug dealers, [2:56:11] human traffickers, [2:56:12] and anyone who kills [2:56:13] a police officer. [2:56:15] Death penalty. [2:56:16] And we will pass [2:56:22] the Save America Act [2:56:23] to defend our [2:56:24] sacred American elections. [2:56:26] And that will include [2:56:26] mandatory voter ID [2:56:29] and proof of citizenship. [2:56:31] And we've already [2:56:35] done a lot of it. [2:56:36] We're 90% of the way there, [2:56:38] but we will make [2:56:39] enshrined into permanent law [2:56:41] no men in women's sports [2:56:43] and no transgender [2:56:45] mutilization [2:56:46] of your children. [2:56:48] We will have [2:56:49] no transgender mutilization [2:56:52] of your beautiful children. [2:56:54] So, ladies and gentlemen [2:56:56] of Texas, [2:56:56] the golden age [2:56:57] of America [2:56:58] is upon us, [2:56:59] but you have to get out. [2:57:01] If we want to keep it [2:57:02] and you have to vote [2:57:03] for Ken and the Republicans, [2:57:05] we've already made [2:57:06] unbelievable progress. [2:57:08] And now, [2:57:10] we are reaching [2:57:10] new levels of greatness [2:57:12] as a country. [2:57:12] This is the greatest [2:57:13] our country has ever been. [2:57:14] We're reaching [2:57:15] new levels of greatness. [2:57:18] So, it's my honor [2:57:19] to be with you. [2:57:20] It's my honor [2:57:20] to be your president. [2:57:22] You are unbelievable people. [2:57:25] Unbelievable people. [2:57:26] And we love you all. [2:57:27] And together, [2:57:30] we will make America [2:57:32] powerful again. [2:57:36] We will make America [2:57:38] wealthy again. [2:57:40] We will make America [2:57:43] healthy again. [2:57:45] We will make America [2:57:49] strong again. [2:57:51] We will make America [2:57:53] proud again. [2:57:55] We will make America [2:57:58] safe again. [2:57:59] And most importantly, [2:58:03] we will make America [2:58:06] great again. [2:58:07] Thank you, Texas. [2:58:09] God bless you. [2:58:10] God bless you all. [2:58:11] Thank you. [2:58:12] Thank you.
