Kamala Harris's campaign is spending millions on Google ads creating misleading headlines that don't match the actual news articles, spreading misinformation and disinformation. The ACLJ is fighting back, launching a counter campaign and taking legal action against the Massachusetts government and abortion industry for attacking pro-life pregnancy centers. Meanwhile, university campuses are seeing a rise in antisemitism, with Columbia University's president resigning amidst a scandal. The ACLJ is working to combat this and protect free speech and the First Amendment.

Today on Sekulow, exposed Kamala's massive Google Scheme. Keeping you informed and engaged. Now more than ever, this is Sekulow. We want to hear from you.

Share and post your comments. Or call 1-800-684-3110. And now your host, Jordan Sekulow.

Alright folks, welcome to Sekulow. So if you are on Google and you're looking around, maybe you're looking about inflation for instance. You might see an ad on Google and in the small print you'd have to maybe have your glasses on. It's already getting a little blurry for me and I'm just reading it down there. But in the very big print you'll see it's Reuters.com so it looks like a real headline. And it says, the headline, which is even in bigger font, inflation is down, lower cost and higher wages. And then in the smaller print, under the Biden-Harris administration, quote, the U.S. is winning the inflation fight.

Kamala Harris vows to combat and dot dot dot. And then you can click it, it goes to Reuters and guess what? That is not the headline at Reuters. They don't even think most people will click it.

But let me tell you just how much money they're spending on ads like this. Which, by the way, is the administration that wanted to silence and did silence so many conservatives because of what they labeled as mis, dis or mal information. Remember they had the disinformation czar? She did not go anywhere and they took that down. But then when we FOIA'd it says it's still being done and Congress asked is it still being done?

They said, well yeah, to some extent yes. They would go to social media companies and tell them what to take down. The most famous is the Hunter Biden laptop and the fact that the New York Post, which I think has the second largest circulation in the United States, it was banned from Twitter, it was before the must purchase, because of running an article about the Hunter Biden laptop. Which, of course, we all know now is the Hunter Biden laptop is legit and it was real information. So, because of laws, though, this administration uses those.

And, Logan, this kind of advertising, listen, it happens in a lot of like shoes, if you're buying shoes and clothing, jewelry, whatever, googling things like that, presents for someone. But this one, how about VP Harris's economic vision? Lower costs and higher wages. I mean, we haven't seen that at all during the Biden administration.

It's been, the wages have been stagnant and the costs are continuing, inflation is continuing to plague America. It's the definition of what should be fake news. They are legitimately creating headlines that do not exist, running them as ads with the hyperlink taking you to legitimate, we'll put those in quotes, legitimate news sources. The AP, Time, Reuters, all of these, by the way, funded by the Harris campaign, the Harris campaign not driving you all the time.

Some of them they are, but not all the time. Back to their website, they're sending you to positive articles. Again, guess what? Then they're paying to get those seen more and then these will rise up and then that news source will go, oh, we're going to write more articles like that. It's a web that's going on, but mainly it's that the headlines don't even match. The headlines don't match at all. These are what they'll say. They're not headlines.

They'll say these are ad copy, but it's made to be misleading. The worst of worst, put it back up, is the first one on our list. Border crossings at a new low. Trump blocks border security. Biden and Harris negotiated bipartisan border deal. Trump killed it for political gain, except for Trump cannot vote in the House or the Senate or nor can he veto anything.

It was conservatives that had issues that this did not go far enough and it did not give enough to Republicans that they wanted and so it did not move through. And the question was, was it going to actually do what it said it was going to do? And that says it's from Time.com.

Now, it doesn't hide at the very top. It does say it's paid for by the Harris for President Presidential campaign, but that's the smallest text you'll see in all of these ads. So why are they allowed to put up their disinformation and their misinformation, but we have to think twice before posting anything because we'll get shut down, won't be able to get emails out, won't be able to fundraise, won't be able to get our message out, effectively get canceled or shut down, like we have seen from really big entities like the New York Post. So again, some questions to you today. One big question. Are you buying the media narrative that President Trump's campaign is spiraling?

I mean, the DNC is next week. I want to hear from you on it, 1-800-684-3110, and get your honest opinions at 1-800-684-3110. We know this is a time, folks, where we need resources at the ACLJ. To combat this mis and distant mal information that's being posed to you or going after pro-life pregnancy centers, go to ACLJ.org. Donate today. And welcome back to Sekulow.

So you've got the mis, the dis, the mal information. Where is it coming from, the Harris campaign? And I mean, again, I think the worst one still, let me just say it again. They are spending, by the way, in the 25 days since Joe Biden has stepped aside, so maybe 24 days since Harris was, you know, put forward as the likely nominee and then she secured the nomination even before the convention next week. In 25 days, they have spent $941,000 just with Google on these ads running. Now, you're not going to see them everywhere you are. You're going to see them if you're in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Georgia, North Carolina, Wisconsin, Arizona, and Nevada.

So again, some of the most key battleground states of the country. That's no surprise there for any kind of advertising. What is a surprise is the amount of money, and Logan, I kind of want you to explain that to people. You put $941,000 behind Google ads in 20-ish days in only, what is that, seven states, a few of which are very small states. That's a lot of people seeing this. You're talking tens of millions of impressions. We probably could come up with a number, exact number, something close to it, but depending on how targeted it is, you could reach tens of millions of people, if not more, with a million dollars in ad spend. We obviously get involved in ad spending here. We do that for our campaigns and for the ACLJ, so we know how that works. And that is a lot of money, especially to be spending in very specific markets.

You're not blanketing the United States. You're highly targeting these, and these are incredibly misleading. I think probably the worst of the worst that I've seen because it is that idea of creating, because it does lead you to a real article. It is a fake headline that they have created out of thin air that then sends you to a real article, and understand what they are doing. They are funding, essentially, these news outlets. The news outlets then are getting a ton of traffic, which then gets advertiser revenue, and they realize, oh, more ad revenue is coming in on Harris campaign articles that are more positive, so let's create more positive articles. But those articles are being pushed from the campaign with a fake headline, and a fake headline, like you said, isn't based in some kind of reality.

It's, you know, the inflation is down, it's border crossing at a new low, Trump blocks border security. These are just falsehoods that they hope people click on it. And it goes even, they're clearly trying to combat certain things with a lot of Tim Walz military service, those type of ones. Harris picks Tim Walz, 215,000 Minnesota families win. Doesn't explain about why, it was a tax credit somehow under his purview, which by the way is so common by governors on both sides of the aisle, but it's just using that headline like, 215,000 Minnesota families win by Harris' decision to pick Walz? But if you wonder why these news sources are historically liberal leaning, they're legitimately paying, the Democrat campaign right now for President is paying for traffic to be sent to PBS, to NPR, to Rolling Stone, to The Independent, to Time Magazine, to AP News. They are advertising for these while being misleading to the actual customer, so this is to me a full, it's completely unethical. Of all sort of ads I've seen, these are the worst.

How about this one, very basic. Harris will lower healthcare cost. How? We haven't heard a policy play from her yet. You're supposed to click on it and read that. But that's on NPR.org, and all it says, there's a little print which I still don't think is from the article, Kamala Harris will lower the cost of high quality affordable healthcare.

No, all of that is created ad copy. Created ad copy, the only thing that's taken you to is to an actual link to an article, but that article is not related, it could be related. They talk about how she supports Medicare for all, which by the way she's trying to back away from now. But the way they make you feel is that that's coming from the editorials, the editor or the writer's point of view. And it's not, it's the campaign. Right, there's some truth behind all of this. Yeah, what they're saying is like, oh this is a headline for an article and a, whoever the byline is. Maybe not even an editorial, just an article reporting the news. Yeah, exactly.

So again. And it says, you know, little paid for by the Kamala Harris campaign. Yeah, which isn't that uncommon for campaigns, it's just, they're getting noticed because even Axios is writing about how they are rewriting the news headlines. Now, again, they know that most Americans, we know it here from many of you. A lot of people will go on social media and share something that we share and they will not click on it.

Yeah. So, I mean, they may have read it a different time or maybe saw it in an email and say, okay, I don't need to read that again, I know about it, I heard the show, but. But we can track, we can see like an ex-post that goes, it would say viral, gets like hundreds of thousands of retweets. Or reposts, I'm sorry, old nomenclature. Repost.

And then we'll see, you know, that it doesn't generate the, you know, the people who, who posted it never even clicked on the website. That's not uncommon. You know, again, I'll take your call and say 2-1-800-684-3110.

And it kind of plays into that. I think we go to Justin's call in California, online one. Hey Justin, welcome to Sekulow.

Hey, thanks for taking my call. I think the assertion that Trump's campaign is spiraling is absolutely ridiculous. And I think the media are trying to convince people that he's somehow lost control of his campaign, which I don't see at all. But anyways, my question is this, I know Trump's ambitious, but I think all he needs to talk about really is the border, the economy, and foreign policy. And if you see, if you fix it, those three things in any particular order, you know, even he has 80 days to convince, you know, the independent voters and other voters, you know, to go for him. And to expand his lead.

And I don't think he should waste a nanosecond insulting Kamala's intellect or race. Yeah, I think those kind of things are how the, it's just, it's giving the Harris campaign ways to fundraise and also mainstream media ways to attack. He might have a campaign shakeup because he's now dealing with a different campaign because she's a very different candidate than who they were preparing for, which was Joe Biden.

She was a minor role, you know? And again, so I think that, and even J.D. Vance is in a role where he's having to on the road kind of retool everything that they were preparing for. I think what we'll see is post-Democrat convention, there'll be a bump or whatever, but remember the post-Republican convention, Democrats were like, oh my gosh, the Republicans are coming out. This is like, they are so pumped up. I don't see how we can win this time.

I mean, it just feels that you get a feeling that way. We'll see if that happens next week. It also looks like the protests are going to be out of control next week. I mean, we're already seeing at a Harris event, the party after the event was taken over by, of course, the pro-Hamas. Yeah, we saw that happen.

It was interesting. The caller brought up an interesting point, which is a lot of people say that and I say it too, but it's also not President Trump's way. So it's probably not going to happen. So maybe a pipe dream for you.

So there may be some part of us that just needs to go, okay, you know what? If you're a Trump supporter, you understand part of it is that you're going to get this kind of rhetoric. You're going to get the focus that you like on the economy.

Here's what's interesting to me though. This ad campaign, the Harris administration is running, is specifically about those issues. This is their response because they're not going to do pressers. They're not going to do all these interviews.

We know that. The response is to create fake headlines because what they do know is that is the vulnerable spot. The vulnerable spot for the Harris campaign is the current situation in our country. So you run ads that are talking about inflation being down and the border and how she's going to change everything and how, again, creating those fake news narratives because, and legitimately creating these news narratives. That is the response that they're having right now to, if Donald Trump was to stick to the issues, they are clearly most scared of the issues.

They're not scared of the rhetoric because the rhetoric may not play into helping anyone, but they know that if he does start hitting on inflation, does start hitting on the border crossings, that is the vulnerable spot. So you come up with these headlines and one of our team members just put, there's a lot of factors that could go into it, but roughly a $950,000 ad spend is about 95 million impressions. So 95 million impressions spent over just a handful of states.

The states that matter the most. And very targeted. I mean, this headline, the truth about Waltz's service, and it doesn't say more about him, it just says, dash, J.D. Vance lies about Tim Waltz. I mean, so you're calling your VP opponent a liar. I just think, again, there should be a retooling by the Trump campaign. We've all said that there has to be because they're up against a very different candidate, candidates now for President Harris and Waltz.

So, of course, you're going to have to take a little time to fine tune what works and what doesn't. He's going to go out, like the caller said, I don't really love that he says this or that, but he's going to test things the next couple of weeks to see what is working. And then you go full steam with that message. I do think the full steam message is the border, the economy, inflation, and what you've got going on in, of course, Russia, Ukraine, and, of course, Israel and the Middle East and Iran. So if you look at those issues, and he's always going to talk about those issues, by the way, Logan, he's always going to speak to those issues. But you're still going to get Donald Trump.

First of all, he's back on Twitter now. It's not changing. But remember, they're the ones that call you clowns, and they're the ones who are posting this. They asked if we do it early, haven't done it in a while. Let's send in those clowns. If you're watching on YouTube or on Rumble, send in the clowns.

Put the clown emoji in those comments. It always helps us out and always shows that you are with us. But we also need to talk about as we wrap up the ACLJ work. We're seeing mass deception through the media, whether it's Kamala's distorted use of Google ads or the state of mass funding a massive state-sponsored media blitz spreading lies about pro-life sinners. At the same time, a Massachusetts town, we haven't gotten to this yet, is banning a church from using public library space.

But the ACLJ is fighting back. We're going to file lawsuits against the government and abortion industry as soon as Monday. We're going to fight for, of course, this counter-campaign in Massachusetts against the pro-life pregnancy centers. And we've already got the demand letter out to Massachusetts town banning that church from accessing the library space. Something we won at the Supreme Court, oh, 30 years ago, the ACLJ.

But these are massive cases that require immense resources. Donate today during our Life and Liberty drive right now. ACLJ.org. We need your financial support.

ACLJ.org. Welcome back to Secular. So at the end of that, you heard about that case in Massachusetts and the town banning a church from using public library space. And by the way, it gets worse than that, we're representing. We're about to get into that for you, explain that to you.

But I do want to take some calls that have come in at 1-800-684-3110. We're going to continue to talk politics. Rick Rinnell is going to be joining us again today on the broadcast. I want to ask him those kind of questions, too, because the media is pushing out this narrative now. We're even seeing it on conservative play like Drudge Report, which is not always a big fan of Trump. Ed likes to be, you know, get people clicking, which is that the Trump campaign is totally falling apart and Donald Trump is mad and angry. And I just think we're a week before the DNC. He's not going to get a lot of attention other than being attacked next week. And it gives him the time to hopefully fine-tune the message for the final push of the campaign, which you couldn't do two months ago because not just because you can't predict everything that's going to happen in the future, but because you literally now are dealing with two people on the ballot where only one of them was going to be on the ballot in a more minor role.

Yeah. And I think you also have a situation where the whole campaign had to move and shift so dramatically in the last 60 days. Last 20 days? Four days. Twenty-four days had to change everything. So, you know, when we talk about real issues that could come up later on.

And what we also know is that most voters, especially with the general election, have not been spending their summer following any of this. Let's go ahead and take a phone call. Let's go to Michael in Florida, on Line 2, listening on Sirius XM. Michael, you're on the air.

Good afternoon, gentlemen. The Biden administration, or should I say Harris administration, has now become the administration, the ploy of sleight of hand. And it's unfortunate because we as U.S. citizens, we're now dealing with the democratic machine. And a huge portion of that, the engine to that machine that really kind of makes it go is all of the media outlets, all forms. Yeah, I agree with you, and I think they were depressed.

Depressed in a real way. They were fighting it hard to write positive articles about Biden running again and fighting it hard to defend the policies. And so they're actually trying to let Harris, like she's adopted the no taxes on tips things and stuff like that.

She's going to start adopting some of these more moderate policies, just unique policies, really more, again, I'd say, populist policies that President Trump has been more known for, even than just most Republicans. But again, the key time is from after the DNC, and we know there's going to be at least one Presidential debate. And while usually I don't put a lot of weight behind these debates, this time around, okay, one debate led to Joe Biden dropping out of the race. And a debate last election cycle, I think, really hurt President Trump.

And that was the first debate with Joe Biden when he was just kept cutting it and cutting it and cutting it and it kind of turned people off. And then, so this debate with Harris, which again, she's going to get a little boost after the Democratic convention, that is going to be, I think, very important because that is at a time when people are starting to pay attention. Yeah, you're a month or so out. People are at school now, it's September, you're going to start paying attention. Darker earlier, that's what's happening. When does that happen? When does the time change happen?

It's starting to get darker earlier, very soon, but that may be post-election, I'm not sure, maybe right after that. One of the things, one of our, Will, our producer put up, that there was a whole conversation about whether she plagiarized the taxing on the tips, no tax on tips. And this was the article, if you want to know sort of some media response, they don't deny that, but the LA Times put, Trump says Harris stole his idea for exempting tips from taxes, but her version beats his. That's the headline. Well, we'd have to click through and read.

Okay. Oh, she'll say raise the minimum wage, therefore it's more money. I also watched a whole piece of her where she was like, you know, I, when I worked at McDonald's, it was when I was, you know, a student and all of the things. So I couldn't afford, but now people are, you know, they can't have a livable wage. It's like, I think this is the conversation that most conservatives are having, which is those jobs were not made to be those career jobs. Understand that we're living in a poor economy time where those are having to be career jobs.

Well, you have to work too. You need to be looking at that as the problem. I do want to update people because we got to do a legal action that we took very quickly. So the ACLJ has sent a demand letter after a local government in Massachusetts, surprise, surprise, back in Massachusetts again. I've blocked a church from using a public library's community meeting room, which is open to the public and you can just, you can reserve the room when you'd like during library hours if no one else has reserved it.

And no rules on how many times you can reserve it, like a week or a month. And so, and of course, you know, the ACLJ, we step up to defend churches all the times because they get treated differently than every other entity by these government entities, especially when it comes to public spaces. Our client is a pastor. He requested the use of a community meeting room of his town's library. It was open and available to conduct Bible studies for his church and to hold gatherings for grief support. So again, at the public library, the town policy for the meeting room said the meeting room is open for the public for informational, educational, cultural, and civic benefit. It also allows people to reserve the room for regular use, even, you know, having a monthly reservation. The library director initially told our client he could meet for the biweekly time he requested, but then Logan, he was kicked out and told that he could not have the space multiple times.

And in these studies, and so he has not received any confirmation on his ability to use the space, whether occasionally or for recurring events, because he got a follow-up email from the town's legal counsel. So the librarian, the library says, okay, yeah, of course you can do that. If it's available, sign up. We want people to come into the library, right? It's public. The taxpayers pay for it. And then the legal counsel says, no, you can only do it for occasional events, but not recurring events like bi-monthly Bible studies. That directs their, of course, their policy.

And we are fighting back. He's also got a meeting that he does with five or six others from the church for a Bible study in an open area of a public park. And you only have to get a permit there if you're going to host like a big event, like you're going to use a gazebo and you're, you're doing this kind of like, again, like open to the public event. And, and, you know, or you're, you know, you know, the kind of event I'm talking about, it's going to basically take over the park. This is not, but he did run an ad saying, if you'd like to join us for this Bible study of the park, you can.

And of course, then what was he told Logan? No, please delete that ad. We got to get rid of it.

We got to be, you can't even be there. Right. So the ACLJ is taking action. We've won a case very similar to this at the US Supreme Court 30 years ago.

It's called Lamb's Chapel. It says the US Supreme Court, the US Supreme Court explained that government violates the first amendment when it denies access to a speaker solely to suppress the point of view he espouses on an otherwise, uh, uh, includable subject. The court ruled in our favor, held that public schools decision to exclude a church from using its meeting spaces when they were open to the public, just like this to reserve, uh, if the times were available, uh, because a group wanted to show a Christian film.

And of course the Supreme court said that violates the first amendment. And this is why, again, when we go to our life and Liberty drive, let me just walk through, you know, of course we're working with our colleague Tulsi Gabbard on this, uh, again, attack on her first amendment and maybe more constitutional rights that has been going on through this Quiet Skies program and her husband. But we also have got, uh, again, we're prepared to file lawsuits, uh, likely early next week against the Massachusetts government and the abortion industry that are smearing those pro-life pregnancy centers.

Uh, we also are going to not just file a lawsuit, Logan, but also launch a huge counter campaign in an unprecedented and groundbreaking effort to combat the mass deception, to help women and save babies. So we're, we're actually using the resources we raised during, uh, this, uh, uh, this really important life and Liberty drive. It's so important, your financial resources, and now this new case, uh, on the Massachusetts town about the library and the park donate to ACLJ. You can double the impact, your donation right now, ACLJ.org.

Those finances matter, ACLJ.org. We need your donation. Keeping you informed and engaged now more than ever, this is Sekulow. And now your host Jordan Sekulow. All right, welcome back to Sekulow.

We are taking your calls to 1-800-684-3110. Rick Grenell is going to be joining us in the next segment of the broadcast. We're going to talk about some of the antisemitism that we've seen at Columbia. We're also going to talk about what has happened inside Iran that has been a little problem with their financial systems. But we'll save that for, for Rick when he joins us the next segment of the broadcast. Uh, Logan, we do want to go to the phones 1-800-684-3110. I do, I do want to underscore again, uh, people, I think you know about what we're doing on behalf of Tulsi Gabbard.

Uh, about the, the, the FOIAs and, uh, you know, that information has been up at ACLJ.org. We have gotten, I, I'd say it's kind of unprecedented the way that one's moving forward. That's all I can say right now. Uh, but it's moving more quickly than usual.

I'll, I'll leave it there right now. Uh, and during our Life and Liberty drive, you know, we're about to sue the government and the abortion industries that are smearing pro-life pregnancy centers. Like a defamation type case in Massachusetts where they're saying that, you know, you can't go to pro-life pregnancy centers because, uh, they, they are, they're bad and there's some, there's, they are there to deceive you. Uh, and they mislead you. So again, you're calling them liars. Uh, you can't trust them because you can only get trustworthy care through abortionist. Uh, and again, these pro-life pregnancy centers, hello in the name, uh, you know, you very quickly, you're going to find out that they are, they are not going to, uh, recommend abortion as the step if you are interested in, uh, or worried about, uh, carry out your pregnancy. And that's not all they do there.

A lot of people buy diapers and baby food. After the fact. Yes. And close.

And I mean, I've seen it firsthand and it's really amazing a lot of the work that they do. And I was in Massachusetts. The reason we started doing this is I was in Massachusetts and I'm walking down the streets of Boston and I start seeing these ads everywhere for, and again, using language. And I talked to some people who are even more liberal or even more pro-choice because I don't even like that the state is putting up billboards that I'm having to explain about anti-abortion centers to my kids or to whatever it is. So we're really going to run a big counter campaign. That's going to really expose the truth here and actually help people. I mean, some of the language on their website, the state of Massachusetts, it's a void words like hope. If you see hope in the name of a pregnancy resource center, that could be, that could mean they're not going to provide you hope. How dare they?

And we're not going to take it and just stand for it. And look, our friends in Massachusetts, I've seen them all turn up. I see them in the comments. I've seen our friends at our radio affiliate. If you're listening on one of our stations in Massachusetts or in Boston, we're talking with them because there's some amazing work that's going to be done based on the response. And the response has been amazing so far, but we really could use your support.

I'm going to encourage you to give during this life and Liberty drive in August, because this is the kind of thing that's going to start happening by the way, around the country. They've said the, the abortion organization that they're working with the state of Massachusetts working with said, Hey, this is our, our day one, this is our state number one. We hope to roll this out across the country. Their goal is to go to places where pro-life pregnancy centers are incredibly necessary. And they're pushing it to a state website. So what they did was a pro-life pro-abortion organization, part of the abortion industry put up a million dollars for the state to utilize to do this.

And, but you're going to a.gov and massachusetts.gov. So again, there, you've got this inner working straightforward right in your face between the abortion industry and a state, you know, in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. And they're saying, this is just where we're starting because listen, and remember it was Kamala Harris who we had to fight in California and we fought back successfully who wanted to force pro-life pregnancy centers to advertise if they wanted to stay open.

The rule was from the, from, from California. And she was enforcing it as attorney general is if you're going to stay open, you have to tell people where they can get the nearest free abortion. It would be like a vegan restaurant. You have to put up a sign that says, we know you're here for a vegan restaurant, but you know, there's a cheeseburger down the street. Yeah, yeah, exactly.

And it's free, free cheeseburger, free cheeseburger. So again, and you've got to fight back though. So like that pastor who contacted us about what happened, the library and the park, we're going to make sure that those meetings take place at ACLJ. And we're going to make sure that you, the abortion industry and the state of Massachusetts can't slander the government. We are also going to launch that huge counter campaign. So not just the lawsuit, but also responding to the ads ad campaign.

And then the campaign will be bigger depending on the financial resources we have. Donate today at ACLJ.org and your gift will be doubled. That's ACLJ.org. Hey, welcome back to Secchia. We are joined by Rick Rinnell, a senior advisor to us at ACLJ. And Rick, I wanted to go to you first because it's back to school, is starting in different parts of the country, colleges also, and universities are getting ready to get back started. And people are already thinking, you know, we're going to immediately see this return to a massive protest at some of, not just some of the top schools in the country, but just schools all over the country supporting terrorist groups in the Middle East. But we do have something to announce, which is that at Columbia, which was kind of got so much attention there because that Columbia President was the one who went to Congress and really could explain, you know, what antisemitism was and from the river to the sea. The Columbia University President Manoush Shafiq, Rick, has resigned as well as, that's just days after three other deans, people may have seen this, they had to resign because they were exchanging disparaging texts about Jewish life and antisemitism. In the text, one dean suggested that a Jewish speaker was just playing up concerns for money.

Another sent vomit emojis in reaction to the mention of an opinion piece in the college paper written by one of the school's rabbis. So again, Rick, we are starting to see movement at these levels where deans are resigning and maybe these activists won't have friends in the highest of places. But again, I still think we're going to see issues like this explode on college campuses and maybe even at the DNC, we're already starting to hear about that next week. And a lot of it's being fueled by the kind of politicians that the VP nominee for Harris, Walt, loves, like Ilhan Omar. Yeah, look, I think this is a real moment where when the veil is pulled back, we're seeing that our university leaders are very woke and exactly the way that Kamala Harris has told them to be.

Remember, there's this video where Kamala Harris is telling people, be woke, you should be as woke as possible, when you have a choice, be very woke. And I think our university Presidents and leaders, we've seen them doing this for the last 10 years, and we shouldn't be surprised that our kids, whether it's in public schools or universities, are being trained to hate America and to hate certain people and to crush dissenting voices. It's very concerning, especially for university settings. You know, I went to a Christian college and I was challenged to think differently and to listen to people and to listen to other viewpoints and then to bring in my view only after hearing and listening.

And we don't have that anymore. And shame on the leadership, adults at these universities who have found themselves to do exactly what Kamala Harris has said, which is be really woke. And I fear that our college campuses are going to go the way of the current Democratic Party even more if Kamala Harris is elected. She's already told us she wants everyone to be this far radical, crazy woke. And that means when you're woke, it means the university Presidents and governors decide to put tampons in the boys restroom. This is insanity.

And everybody knows if you're interested in common sense that you have to avoid being woke and the place that it's celebrated and pushed is on our universities. You know, Rick, because I want to go back to this is something that is being pushed out through the media really heavily today. And it started over the last few days, but really heavily today, that there's just some complete turmoil in the Trump world. Does he realize he can't win? On and on it goes.

And there's some shuffling around on the team. First of all, I mean, Rick, my first response is during the week of the after Republican National Convention, the same media was like, you know what? These Republicans are on a path to victory. And, you know, they may say the same thing after the DNC next week, depending on how that goes. But we were also, I mean, I think just to be fair, maybe the media is not being, you know, just 20 something days ago where the entire campaign has now got to refocus on a new lead because you focus mostly on the person who's running for President. I mean, I guess should our listeners, because they're starting to express some concern because they're seeing these stories, Rick, should they be concerned? Look, I just about an hour ago just got off a call with the campaign. There was about roughly, I don't know, I'm guessing 15 people on the call. And there was an update as to where we are.

And I actually came away from the call really encouraged that the fundamentals are there. The media clearly are super excited that they have a candidate in Kamala Harris that can walk up the stairs without falling. And so we've seen a shift in just Democrats, you know, who were always Democrats, always going to vote for the Democrats suddenly get vocal and get excited.

And then I put the media in that category as well. You know, they were very sheepish about supporting Biden, but they still were. Remember, they told us he was fine.

They told us that he was totally, totally with it and fine. And then everything was a cheap fake right up until the point where they said, okay, now the numbers are too bad. You got to get out of the way and we got to give it to Kamala. So they manipulated this so much that, of course, they're going to say that Kamala is amazing. I think what the story is, is that the media is really in danger of utter collapse because they are now literally celebrating somebody and pushing her propaganda points out without even asking her questions. So when she pushes out this, you know, here's my policy on the economy, a real journalist would say, I'm not going to push that out there.

I'm not going to write a story that's a one way story until I have a chance to ask some questions about this of the actual candidate. And that's where journalism has collapsed, where people, and I've been highlighting this on my Twitter feed, is just to say, look at these reporters who are recycling and repeating one way communication without having the ability to ask a single question. That is beginning to catch up to her. I think that the fundamentals are there for Trump. Do we have work to do?

Of course we do. And they have a candidate now that's different, so we've got to adjust. Yeah, and I think actually maybe it's a wake up call for activists out there, for folks out there. I had someone at a school pickup line, Rick, literally come up to me while we were waiting for our kids to be let out.

And I've got a Trump Vans sticker on my truck and he just said, he just came over to shake my hand, didn't know who I was, and just said, you know, anybody who is willing to do that, I just got to shake their hand. I don't live in a liberal area at all, but I always tell people, because I tell people on the broadcast show, we get into these campaigns, if your neighbors don't know who you're voting for, but maybe you go online and you like to say all this tough stuff, you're not doing a lot of service to help that candidate win. Like, you know, people need to know that it's their friends and family and people that they trust and kind of see every day and like, even if they're not their best friends, but they're good neighbors, know who they are supporting. And again, that means stepping up. I think people do get a little concerned because it feels like there's violence being threatened, but that's been falling into exactly what the Democrats want. I mean, we're getting into that season of the campaign, Rick. What I mean is that it's the general public will start paying attention when we get to back to school.

Yeah, there's no question. It's getting closer every single day. I hear, you know, new concerns and people focused on new issues within the campaign. But again, I just had this inside briefing.

It was very long, very detailed of all of the work. I feel like we're in great shape. The messaging is with us. We got a lot of new voters. We fixed a lot of the problems from last time, but nothing is going to win this like every single person listening, getting out and having their community vote. And so there is this concept, I think I want to talk about it more in the future, but there's this new thing that the Trump campaign is doing called Trump Force Captains. And they've got it down to where you can sign up and be the leader in your block or in several blocks where you will get data of people who are either Trump supporters or a propensity to vote for Trump. And it's your job to go get them, get them out to the polls and make sure that they have turned in their ballot or voted. And we're going all the way down to grassroots.

And thousands of people have signed up to be a Trump Force Captain. I think this is what we wanted to see. I think this is what a lot of us want to see this stuff rolling out is just, you know, getting back to those kind of the basics, but using new technology and Rick, I think we've only got like seconds left here. So thank you for joining us and getting to that and sharing that information that you could from that call.

I think our listeners probably enjoyed that. But yeah, Logan, like getting back to that, like core basic grassroots, that is how really we get beat usually. We win when we go grassroots and we don't just think we're going to win off name ID or popularity or because our candidate's really famous.

Social media is going to be tougher because it's going to skew younger. So how are you going to get the other people activated? Just go out there.

Like I said, that street team mentality. Hey, if you're on hold, we're going to take all the calls we can in the next segment. Somebody's been on hold for 30 minutes.

Just stay up like just one more minute and we're going to do it. Again, support the work of the ACLJ at ACLJ.org, especially during this campaign right now, as we're going to take on the state of Massachusetts over their attack on pro-life pregnancy resource centers. It's really an important time to get involved because it's going to be coming to your town, even if you're not in Massachusetts. If you are in Massachusetts, by the way, put it in the comment right now.

If you're watching on YouTube or Rumble, I'd love to see where our audience is there. We're noticing a big swell there, which has really been amazing. We'll be right back with your calls.

Alright, welcome back to Sech Hill. Let me encourage you right now, folks, because again, this is very important. If you heard about Massachusetts, you may just think we're talking about the life effort. That is a big one because we're going to be filing a lawsuit, it looks like early next week, against the government of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the abortion industry because they're working hand in hand to run a state campaign, so using also taxpayer dollars, to smear pro-life pregnancy centers.

So we'll be filing the lawsuit. We also want to raise resources for, as Logan has talked about a lot, a huge counter campaign that can make sure people know that this is deception about these centers and what they actually do, and that they're not lying to anybody about trying to be abortion clinics. And also what they do post pregnancy, which is providing people a need to make sure if you need assistance, I don't even know if they asked twice, if you need diapers, if you need baby formula, you can just go.

And if you are someone who doesn't want to go and have an abortion, doesn't think you're in a point in life to raise a child, can they also help assist you with adoption agencies, which by the way, many times you're paying for with your taxpayer dollars. So all those things sound bad when there's also the option in Massachusetts to go to the abortion clinic, like they really think they need to advertise more for abortion clinics, they have to run a state campaign, are the pro-life pregnancy centers being that effective? And I hope they are, but it does show you what they want to launch across the country. Now to run the counter campaign, that's different than just what we do legally, which the legal stuff of course costs a lot of resources in court because we don't charge our clients a thing. But the counter campaign is something, Logan, that really, you know, we know how to do web ads and things like that, but the size of it will all be based off the resources we've got.

Yeah, that's right. How much we take to outdoor, to billboards, to all of that, how we're going to spend the money, the best place to do it, radio ads, TV ads, all of that is being discussed right now with our team. It's really amazing the stuff they're coming up with. So I can't wait for it. I'm actually very excited about it, but it can't happen unless you support our work at the ACLJ.

We've got a ton of calls. Go to ACLJ.org and make that donation today. Remember, it will be double because it's part of our life and liberty drive. So if you make that $50 donation, that is the equivalent of $100 to the ACLJ. And you know what, if you can write a $500 check, that's going to make it that much easier to run a campaign, a counter campaign.

Yeah, absolutely. Let's go ahead and take some phone calls. First up is Michelle, who's an ACLJ champion. So they get first Biden, but she still waited for a long time. We appreciate it. You're on the air, Michelle.

Thanks. Okay, so I have kind of a long comment. So I believe that the Democrats' strategy is to create an illusion of popularity for Kamala Harris so that when they cheat, like they did in 2020, it will at least be semi-believable. And I believe they got rid of Biden because it just wouldn't have been believable anymore. And if Harris does debate Trump and bombs, I think they'll replace her, whether it's constitutional or not. Yeah, I think they'll do that one. Again, she would have to drop him out.

Just not enough time. Yeah, I mean, you start getting into a real mess. Now, do I think she could bomb?

Yeah, I do. I think that's why she's only signed out for one debate and probably hoping that if she feels like she bombed, they'll just say that Donald Trump was being a jerk or something like that. And remember, the debates are unknown.

Our guy, you know, Trump, if you're on the right, can be unbelievably good at these debate settings. But you can also look back at one debate against Biden where a lot of people stopped watching the debates because of really the way the microphones were working and the cutting off. It was a mess. It was also a time of COVID.

People were kind of all over the place. Anyways, I don't think, again, we don't want to say that this election is going to be stolen because if you do that, we can't win because people won't vote. And you will notice that there has been a pivot by President Trump. It happened long before the Harris campaign, which is if you need to go vote early, vote early. If you need to vote absentee, vote absentee. If you've got to vote by mail, vote by mail. That was not the message, remember, in the last election cycle. It was you need to vote most vote day of election. And while it's great that Republicans get a big day of election turnout, where we've gotten killed is that there were already more votes in for Democrats.

You can look at some districts and see that you were not going to be able to overcome the amount of votes already in. So if people couldn't make it, problems ensued immediately. Let's go ahead and try to continue on quickly. Vincent's calling in Rhode Island. You're on the air, Vincent. Sorry, running out of time.

Just go ahead. Yes, I see an upswing in momentum on the Trump side, actually. It seems with the press conference and the Twitter, their ex presentation with Musk, it seems to be swinging towards him again. And once the debate comes up, after she finishes reading her script, she can't do anything else. Yeah, I think, again, that debate is going to be very telling. Is Harris able to retool herself?

And some of that's impossible, some of it's possible. Well, clearly his method is to get out there and speak, which she won't. So to do interviews, to do all those things, to get as much media coverage as you can while they're actively avoiding it. We saw that clip y'all played yesterday from CNN.

They're actively avoiding these debates, actively avoiding interviews. But next week they own the media. Yeah.

So then the next week it is wall to wall. On all networks. All right, continuing on. Let's try to get to a couple more. Let's go to Susan who's calling in Maryland on line five. You're on the air. Yes.

Quick question. Do you assess that Kamala shows she has never run a Presidential campaign? She's spending egregious amounts of money in markets she's already won. She's not running the campaign though. People that ran one of the most effective Democrat campaigns in history, Barack Obama's team, are now running the campaign.

So they know how to spend money. They were the best at it that we had seen up to probably Karl Rove. I'm not talking about Karl Rove's politics. I'm talking about his campaign strategy. And then I think Donald Trump was an unbelievable grassroots, unbelievable force. This MAGA he brought people out to vote who don't even vote. And he got blue collar voters. He got voters from demographics that Republicans had given up on but he wouldn't give up on.

But let me tell you something. It's not Kamala Harris saying, we need to spend $900,000 on this. By the way, $900,000 to them, they could go out and raise that again in seconds if they need it from the Democrats. And that was important to their fundraising. They have got new people in too. They are very smart and they have won Presidential elections before. So don't say it's her or it's Tim Walz. They are not the strategists. That's not how campaigns work.

And again, they've got people on their team, just like President Trump does, who have won Presidential elections before. We only have a minute and a half left. I'm going to say I'm sorry to our callers.

Jack, if they call back tomorrow. Let's just try to get them early. Just let them have a little call back.

Some of them are going to be able to spend a hold for half an hour. We really appreciate it. We just ran out of time. But we need to talk for the last minute and a half about the important work of the ACLJ and what we're doing because we are in the middle of our Life and Liberty drive. We're headed towards the finale of the Life and Liberty drive for the month of August. And again, it got extended because it's our match.

People give $20. It gets doubled because there's another great ACLJ supporter. So we encourage you today to become an ACLJ supporter, become an ACLJ champion. You saw those calls got to be bumped up to the front because those are people who support the ACLJ on a regular recurring basis, ongoing recurring basis.

All you have to do is opt into that and we would appreciate it. We are rolling out some major campaigns. And yes, it may seem like we are focused on the state of Massachusetts, but that's because we know what's coming next. That was a real issue that we are seeing on the ground. And people feel relieved and elated when we talk to them about the fact that the ACLJ is going to get involved and get involved in a state level and take on this egregious attack on pro-life resource centers that really are just providing not just health care to families and giving mothers a choice of not choosing abortion, but what they are also doing a lot of the times is providing incredible resources.

Food, formula, diapers, clothes. So many of them do that. Medical care. They're doing amazing work and they're being demonized by their own state.

And a lot of these are really good, very religious people who are just trying to do what's right. The ACLJ is standing up for them. We have this huge campaign running right now and we will be launching a big counter campaign and we are going to court on this as well. So right now scan that QR code or go to ACLJ.org. Do it today.
