Will Dems Turn to Violence If GOP Wins?

From Memphis, Tennessee, it's common sense conservative commentary from Todd Stern. That's love, that's right. I love this American ride. And hello, everybody! Welcome to the Todd Stern's Radio Show.

Great to have you with us, wherever you may be listening across this great nation, border to border, coast to coast. Across the fruited plain, we have a lot going on today. It is election eve, and ladies and gentlemen, this is the most consequential election in recent memory. Great to have you with us today. Normally, we do not have guests this early in the program, but we have a very special guest on our Patriot Mobile Newsmaker line.

He is the busiest man in politics right now. House Speaker Mike Johnson. Johnson joins us live, Speaker Johnson. Good to have you with us, and we sure to appreciate the great job you've been doing out on the campaign trail. Hey, Todd, thank you so much.

I am talking to you from our motorcade of in North Carolina right now, heading into a a rally for Colonel Laurie Buckhouse. He's going to flip a blue seat to red in North Carolina's first district and. Heading from North Carolina, going to Virginia today for Rob Whitman and Jen Kiggins, our incredible incumbents there. Then I wind up in Texas tomorrow with multiple candidates. Then back to my my home district in Louisiana.

But brother, we're leaving it all on the field because we have to. You said it right. This is the most important election. That ain't a bumper sticker slogan this time, man. This that is really, really the truth.

That we're facing a a crossroads as a nation. We're either going to keep the Republic. Preserve its freedom. We're going to go down this dark, dangerous road to socialism and communism, Marxism. I don't think the people are signing up for that, Todd.

And I believe we're going to win. I believe we're going to defy the polls and the pundits. I have. I've done. My my team just told me this morning.

I've now completed ninety three campaign events across twenty four states just this month alone. I was with the president on the on the on the stage at the big event in Iowa just last night, just yesterday, and we're going to leave it all in the field. He and I and all of us we're going to win this thing. You know, the New York Times today came out with their poll predicting a a blue tsunami, Mr. Speaker.

I'm just I have not sensed that at all during the campaign cycle. And I just really believe the American people are going to stand up to this rise of of socialism. They are, Todd. Let me just say this very clearly: you can totally dismiss these bogus polls. I'm telling you, they are wrong.

I have traveled more than anybody in America. I've been to all the swing districts, the blue states, the places they say. That all hope is lost for the Republicans. That they are wrong. We are.

We have huge enthusiastic crowds everywhere. People are riled up. It feels like 2024 to me on the campaign trail. But here's what everybody needs to understand: the reason the polls are off is because they are. They have faulty analysis.

Republicans are not participating in polls anymore.

Okay, I keep trying to explain that, everybody, and the media types, and they dismiss it. CNN was forced to run a story just a week ago on Monday, and they acknowledge that the mid-October generic congressional ballots have underestimated Republicans in fifteen of the last sixteen elections, and they have underestimated them by an average of four points. Todd, four points is the margin in almost every seat that we're all fighting about. I'm telling you, they are not talking to Republicans. They're oversampling Democrats, and that is going to be.

This is, I think, this is going to be a shameful night on Tuesday for the polling industry. It may be a fatal blow to them because they just don't work anymore. Speaker, Miss, Mister Speaker, I'm curious about Haley Stevens. The and I want to get your reaction to the the vitriol coming from members of her own party. I mean, they're kicking her out of the party.

She's become something of a pariah. Are you surprised? By the way, the Democrats have reacted. I'm not because that's where the Democrat Party is today. Haley is a very kind and good person.

She's a colleague. I've enjoyed working with her. In fact, I spoke with her night before last, before all the news broke yesterday, and she made her big decision—the right decision, the ethical, moral decision—to endorse Mike Rogers for the Senate in her state, the Republican. Before she did that, I spoke with her the night before. She called me.

In fact, I was just leaving an event, and I was. Late in the evening, and you know I'm the speaker. I'm not just the you know I'm the leader of my party in the in the legislative branch, but I'm also the speaker of the whole house, and that's over all members. And so, when they have cause of concern, they reach out to me, and that's my job. And I I try to comfort her.

I mean, she was obviously beginning to feel this enormous weight from the party and the vitriol, the vicious attack they put on her and her fiance. And I'm I'm just going to be frank about this because. Her fiance is Jewish because Haley is Jewish. That's what is at stake there. That's what you're seeing.

Watch them judge these people by their actions, not their not their their campaign rhetoric. And Al Sayed is a danger to the Senate. He would be a danger to the American way because he is a big government socialist and he has had familiarized with the Muslim Brotherhood and all the rest. And Haley did the right, heroic, courageous thing. She just simply said, "My goodness." Aren't we past scapegoating an entire people, the Jewish people, for everything that's wrong in society?

That's that's what El Sayed's commercials are doing.

Okay, and she just she just politely asked them not to do it, and they turned on her like a bunch of vipers. That's what we're facing. This is not our father's Democrat Party anymore. There's more of this to come if we don't defeat it at the ballot box. I'm I'm wondering about President Trump's rallies, and you were at the rallies this weekend.

The media says that they're actually detrimental to the Republican cause. I would say this is exactly what we need to see that enthusiasm that the media refuses to cover. I'm just wondering what has that experience been like, and I just my hat is off to the president. I don't. Where he finds the the stamina to do all of this.

He is he is a force of nature, as you know. He doesn't sleep. He's he has an inexhaustible reservoir of energy to defend freedom and defend America, and it comes from a true place in his heart. And when he says America first, he means it. And he gets up every day to do that.

He's done thirty rallies.

Okay, if I want you to just think for a moment, Todd, you and I know this, but the others think about just for a moment. If he had not been out there on the trail, the media doesn't cover all of my rallies.

Okay, they don't cover most anyone else. Is out doing it. He knows they'll cover him, and we have had overflow crowds. I mean, in Iowa last night, I think they had fifteen thousand people in the parking lot who could not get into the building. I mean, it was totally full to the rafters.

That energy is out there. The media has to face it. I mean, they try to cover it up, but they can't because it's so overwhelming. He's done so many of them, and if we had not had that, the entire country would have believed in this false narrative that. You know, people hate the administration, hate the president, hate Republicans, and you know, Democrats are going to take over the world.

It's just not true. I mean, it's just not where the people are. And I've been in these events all around America, and I'm telling you, it's not just the red states, Todd. I was I was campaigning in the last few days. I was up in upstate New York, for example, on Long Island.

We had events for our candidates up there. Seven hundred people turned out to one, five hundred fifty people plus turned to the other one. I mean, they are fired up on a weeknight, waving signs and banners like they're in LSU's Tiger Stadium on Saturday night. They know what's at stake. California, same thing.

The blue districts around the country, where I go, these are huge crowds. They're not talking to pollsters, but they are going to speak on Tuesday. And I'm telling you, I'm telling you, people are going to be very surprised, Mr. Speaker. I know you're busy.

Before I let you go, what are some of the key areas that you guys are going to be looking at tomorrow? Maybe bellwether states or or districts.

Well, somebody asked me that that question a little while ago, and I, you know, on on election night, I'm going to have a big event in my district, and in Shreveport, Louisiana, will be at the convention center, big big event. But I will be, I'll be watching the map as the polls close in the war room before I get on stage at my own event, of course. And and the polls close first on the East Coast, of course, and they spread across the country.

So just start there. I mean, Maine second district. Paul LePage, his former governor, he's going to flip that blue sea to red. The those two districts I was just referencing in New York, New York. Three and four, the third and fourth congressional district.

You have extraordinary candidates there. I was I was on stage with Mike Lupetri, who's going to flip that blue seat to red. Blue Bruce Blakeman running for governor. He has big coattails there, and he's going to he's going to carry those counties, and we're going to get Republicans elected in New York. No one is expecting that, but I am.

Then you go down the map. I'm I'm here in North Carolina's first district with Colonel Laurie Buckout. She's a retired Army Colonel, combat leader, commander. She is an extraordinary candidate. She's going to flip this seat from blue to red.

Don Davis is the incumbent. Do nothing, Don Davis, they call him. She's going to be an extraordinary upgrade. Go all the way down to you know Virginia. We have.

I'm going there next. I'll be campaigning with Rob Whitman and Jen Kiggins. Tight races in Virginia. They're going to win reelection. The polls right now say that they're they're in trouble.

I don't believe it. There's going to be big crowds there.

So look all around the country, from the East Coast all the way across the West. We have far superior candidates on. We have a incredible record to run on for this Congress. Big plans going forward. Our candidates are articulating that well.

We have a fundraising advantage by God's grace. I think I crossed the five hundred twenty nine million dollars raised mark this cycle alone, just in the last two years, all in. And the president's raised record amounts of money. Our candidates have worked hard. I believe all that's going to pay off.

I believe God's not done with America yet. I believe we're going to win this election cycle and keep this thing going. And finally, Mr. Speaker, again, the the importance of this. And I think when you look at those polls, there was a poll: forty four percent of Democrats believe it's okay to use violence to take to remove presidents from from office.

Nearly twenty percent. Another poll: nearly twenty percent believe it's okay to use violence to silence opposition to your political beliefs. I hope the American people understand what we are trying to stop from happening in this country. Todd, you said it so well. There's those indicators and so many others.

I keep thinking of this passage of scripture as I'm winding down this campaign. Psalm 11:3. It says, "If the foundations be destroyed, what will the righteous do?" We have the actual foundations of America, the greatest nation in the history of the world, the freest, most successful, most powerful, most benevolent nation that's ever been. In an open contest, we have we have we have enemies of the foundations, people who are disdain for the founding principles of America. They're trying to tear them down.

Freedom and limited government, and the rule of law, and things like peace through strength and human dignity, the sanctity of life, and you know fiscal responsibility—the things that made America—are under assault right now. And we must stand up, and we must do the right thing. And God will continue to bless our nation, and that's what this is about. This isn't just a normal midterm; it's an unlike any we've ever had. By God's grace, we're going to prevail.

Indeed, it is, Speaker Mike Johnson. Thank you for the great work you're doing for the country, and we wish you. Safe travels as you as you make these final stops. Thank you, brother. God bless you.

We'll talk to you soon. All right, there you have it, ladies and gentlemen. Speaker Mike Johnson on the Patriot Mobile Newsmaker line. What a way to kick off a very busy show. We have a lot of great guests coming up, and we're going to be taking your calls as well.

What are you sensing? What are you feeling as we move toward Election Day tomorrow? Are are you starting to feel a little bit more confident in how these numbers are going? To play out, our telephone number is nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. Again, that telephone number nine zero one two six zero five nine two six.

Today, we want to hear from all of you, no matter where you are across the nation. We want to hear your voice. Give us an idea of what the vibe is like in your area. We've got some great audio coming from what happened in Michigan yesterday, and let me just say this: the speaker is absolutely. Right, we need to make sure that we are watching each other's sixes over the next little while because these Democrats.

Are completely unhinged.

Okay, we have to take a break. We'll be right back. Attention, people! I have an earth-shattering announcement to make. Brace yourself.

Are you ready? Are the kids and pets in a secure place?

Okay, here goes. It's another ZipRecruiter ad. I know you could probably write one of these in your sleep. I mean, what don't you already know? Let's see.

You know that ZipRecruiter's matching technology finds great people fast for all kinds of roles. You also probably know that ZipRecruiter has active qualified candidates. Who are looking for jobs just like yours? But did you know that these qualified candidates can tell you why they're perfect for your role, so you meet them sooner? Aha!

You probably didn't know that because that's a new feature.

So hey, it pays to listen. Speaking of which, right now you can try ZipRecruiter for free at ZipRecruiter.com/zip. And yes, I know you know that four out of five employers who post on ZipRecruiter get a qualified candidate within the first day. I mean, that's in every ad. Anyway.

Go to ziprecruiter. dot com slash zip to try it for free. Again, that's ziprecruiter. dot com slash zip. Ziprecruiter.

I hope you enjoy living in a dictatorship. Oh, really? A dictatorship? I'm Lisa. I'm not going to be covered in a sheet like by Sharia law.

Are you nuts? Are you worried that if Abdul Al-Sayed is elected, I would never vote for anybody named Mohammed, Abdul, anybody ever, ever. This is the U.S. We a Christian nation. We govern by God.

Like we will never ever ever ever would have. Are you kidding me? I voted Democrat my whole life until I woke up. Until I woke up and realized what's going on in this. What woke you up?

Trump. Trump woke me up. I I love the Michigan accent. That's killing me here. God, God, I love that.

Wow! Amen, sister. I I love that. Look, that was a female voter who, by the way, used to be a Democrat, now voting for Mike Rogers in Michigan, and the Michiganders folks are are saying no, we're not going down the path of Sharia, not not anymore. I think a lot of folks, and by the way.

It's it's not just the Jews that are concerned about the Democrat Party. In it's not just the Jews. It's also minority groups, specifically Blacks in Michigan. They don't trust Abdul El Saeed at all. And one of the reasons why I do believe is when you take a look at places like Dearborn, Michigan, which has the largest Islamic population of any city in the nation, when you See that at least the concentration of Muslims when when you see what's happened in those communities that have been completely overrun by the Muslims, they know more so than any other place in the country what that means.

And you say, Todd, what does that mean?

Well, it means that the Muslim faith is now the dominant faith in Dearborn and other cities in Michigan. And when that happens, Christians are marginalized, Jews are marginalized. It means that life in those communities now centers around the Islamic faith, which is one of the reasons why, for example, during Ramadan, during the time of fasting, they actually move high school football practices to midnight, so to accommodate the the Islamists who are practicing their religion. That does not happen any other place in America.

So again, I I think especially women, when you see how women are treated in these majority Islamic countries, people don't want that here. People love looking at our beautiful American women. I mean, you go back to Iran, go back to the pre Ayatollah Iran, for example, and Tehran was known as the Paris of the Middle East. It was one of the most beautiful cosmopolitan cities. It was known for its art, its music, its, its history, its they their culture.

It was a thriving, vibrant culture. When you look at some of the photos from before. The Islamic Revolution, where the women were just stunningly gorgeous, and they—I mean, they—it was like all the women in Iran were, you know, fashion models, and they wore the latest fashion, and they were able to wear swimsuits. They had their hair done up, and they wore the makeup and all that kind of stuff. Then the Islamists come in.

And they make the women wear, as you heard, one of the that you heard the lady there. They make them wear bed sheets, and they put a little slit in the where the eyeballs are. Otherwise, they'd be blind as a bat. It could be 120 degrees, and they make the women wear these these get-ups. And it's it's appalling how they treat the women.

Now, my recommendation is: we've got all these large marges out there running around, or at least waddling around, talking about you know Islam and Palestine and all that kind of stuff. My recommendation is that we round up all of those gals, the feminazis, and we send them over to Iran. We send them over to Gaza. And we let we let those women experience what life is really like for women under Islamic rule. You know, they're out there saying "free, free Palestine," and they're marching in support of the Iranian ayatollahs.

They don't have a clue. They have. They don't have a clue. What's that, Dylan? No, no, no.

I yes, I'm. Yeah, I'm saying the burkas. They they should as soon as they get off the plane at what's left of Tehran International Airport, give them a burka. I mean, yeah, maybe I have to have a XXXL. I don't know if they make burkas that big, but you're going to need some big burkas.

Those are some big badonkadonks. I'm just saying. Size over there. King say they make they make them they I don't know they might have we'll look into that but whatever it takes I guarantee you they'll have a a come to Allah moment if you will nine zero one two six zero five nine two six our telephone number that's nine zero one two six zero five nine two six we're taking your calls on that and. God bless Haley Stevens.

I know she's she's still a dem. She thinks she's still a Democrat. The Democrat Party says we don't want you, so we're going to play some audio from that. Also, a little bit later on, our good buddy retired Brigadier General John Taeckert going to weigh in on that horrible plane crash yesterday, just nine miles from Mar-a-Lago. We'll try to get his take on what happened as well.

Hang tight, everybody. This is the Todd Stearns Radio Show. All right, welcome back, everybody. This is the Todd Stern's Radio Show. Great to have you with us today.

Looking at these New York Times numbers, and we're going to do a deep dive a little bit later on in the program. The New York Times now predicting a blue tsunami tomorrow. I don't, I don't see that happening at all. And again, it goes back to the fact that Republicans are not taking part in these polling organizations. They're they're not engaging with the pollsters, and therefore I don't.

I just don't believe we've got a full a full understanding of what people are are voting for out there.

Well, I want to bring in our next guest. She is really becoming a force in the Republican Party. She is from Memphis, Tennessee, and she is one of those voters that President Trump came out. You might remember this back in 2016, and basically went to the. Minority communities and said, "Hey, look, you guys have been voting Democrat, and what have you?

What have you gotten as a result of that?" So he said, "Why don't you just give me a shot? What do you have to lose?" I think that was the the messaging. What do you have to lose?

Well, Delicia Ballinger joins us, and we had you on the show a while back when you told your big story. I mean, you're a very well known journalist in Memphis, and you ended up losing your job as a result of supporting President Trump. The Memphis Safe Task Force. Good to see you back. Thank you for having me.

I'm such a pleasure to be here. Thank you.

So I'm just I'm just wondering after that whole experience because I mean that was you know it's always a traumatic experience going through something like that. What has life been like for Delicia since that day? It's been absolutely incredible. You know, since then, you know, I had a chance to meet the president. He came in March to give his you know support of Of course, with the Memphis Safe Task Force, and I was honored enough to sit at that roundtable with President Trump.

So I had a chance to meet him, which was absolutely life changing. He gave my family and I one of the most incredible experiences that you know we've ever had. And you know, since then, I've made several trips to the White House. I've you know went to the egg roll. I've even had Mother's Day with him.

So I'm you know I'm very happy to be great friends with. This administration, I'm curious because we are watching what happened in what's happened in other parts of the country, happening now in Michigan, where a number of of black voters, many of them are still Democrats, but they're saying, "No, we're we're voting for the Republican this go around." I'm wondering if you're seeing that at at at any level here in the state of Tennessee. Absolutely, I see definitely a red surge within black voters. I feel like we're all tired, and we definitely. Change, and through my influence, and definitely through how President Trump has really treated me, I want to show my people, you know that.

He cares about us. He wants what's best for us, and also just through knowledge to show them that hey, if we make the right choices, then we can see actually see what is happening here in America.

So I'm very very grateful to be a great conservative voice to show the the good part of or the good side of the Republican Party. What was taking me through that transformation for you to becoming a conservative? How did that happen? Yes.

So immediately after. That video of me going viral, talking about what happened and getting fired from the job, I immediately flipped because here's the thing. I'm telling the truth about something that has happened that he did. Why be condemned for it? This is the first time, you know.

And I've been, you know, every since I had the chance to vote and go into the machines. Right? I never knew who I was voting for. I just knew to vote blue, no matter who. I never understood it, but when that happened.

I immediately flipped because I'm like, this is someone that actually took action for the first time in my life that I could actually see in front of my face that affected my children, and so I. It was it was only right because I see the action and and for me it was only imperative and only right and then considering the fact that the first black people were Republicans, so I'm going back to my roots and so I'm just very proud to not only go back to my roots but to actually be with a party that works for the American people. Robert Church, who was a great Memphian, one of the very first black millionaires in in the South from Memphis, and started. His son, I believe, started the Republican Party, and the sole purpose was to register blacks to vote. Absolutely, and a lot of people did not know when it came to Robert R.

Church. He actually saved Memphis. You know, we were after the Depression, Memphis economically was at the bottom, so it was a black man that saved Memphis. When you are talking about Bill Street and all sorts of different parts of Memphis, it was Robert R. Church that saved Memphis.

It was a black. Republican. And so I'm very, very happy to to get back to that and and express it.

So I'm really, really happy. And of course, the great Tom Lee, who was just a guy, you didn't even know how to swim. He was down on the Mississippi River. He saw a ship going down, a boat going down, and and was credited with saving many, many lives. And of course, the beautiful downtown park in Memphis, named in his honor.

He was invited by a Republican president to come and. Be honored at the White House. I mean, this is what back many, many years ago, right after the turn of the last century. Absolutely. When you think about history, and when it comes down to the Republicans, the Republicans have been the saviors, even all the way down to the slaves being free.

It was the Republicans that did that. Shout out to Abraham Lincoln that that freed the slaves. Like it was. It was because of of of them. It was.

Because of them, we are who we are today. Even all the way down to Juneteenth, you know, it was the Republicans that did that. Here's what bothers me: is that there is a rich, vibrant history, and that history is not being taught in the classrooms. Instead, it's this idea of, "Oh, you are oppressed, and there's nothing you can do about it, and this white guy over here is your oppressor." You know, that's the biggest misconception. You know, one thing that I've come Realize, and this is just you know.

My stance on it in my life. I'm the American Dream, you know. I was pregnant and homeless at one point with my child, but I used my resources. I used the opportunities that were given to me by America, by the state of Tennessee, and here I am. I'm I'm here now.

I'm you know I'm homeowner. You know my children have a beautiful place to live, and it's all because of the opportunities that America has given me, and those things. Opportunities can be given to anyone. You just have to apply yourself. It doesn't have anything to do with race.

It's all about taking those opportunities and making it work for you. I love this. Delicia Ballinger is with us. She lives in Memphis, Tennessee, is becoming a really a national voice in the Republican Party. You know, I it hasn't come without its challenges, and there were two incidents that happened.

One recently, yes, at one of my favorite burger joints. Not too far from here. Yes, Huey's. Tell me what happened at the Huey's Burger Joint.

So you know, this particular what for whatever reason it seems like when I have on my Trump gear, I get a lot of a lot of kickback from people. And this particular day, I'm in full Trump gear, and I'm walking to get my food, and some black woman she comes out and says, "Oh, well, you must be dressed up as a racist for Halloween." And I'm like, I stopped in my tracks and I. Turn around and I'm like, "Well, you must have on a fat suit because you look like Lord Farquaad." So, you know, um, I guess we're both dressed up, but no, you know, um, I get a lot of kickback, a lot of kickback, uh, when I'm showing my support for the president. Wow! And so, and you were at the the airport in Nashville.

Yes.

What happened there?

So I'm actually on the way to my car, and I'm on the shuttle, and there was this, um. Transvestite, or Transformers, if if you will, you call them transformers. I call them transformers. All right, dudes who think they're women. Yeah, okay, got it.

And so as I'm walking up, I'm seeing they have like this look of disgust on their faces. I'm wearing my baguette, and I'm not worried about it. But as we're approaching the shuttle, they just all of a sudden just jump in front of me and cut me off. And I'm like, hey, excuse you. And so we get in the shuttle, and he looks back at me and say, hey, pretty disgusting.

You support that man? I said, oh.

Well, it's pretty disgusting that you have balls under your skirt, sir. Oh my! Hello. Wow, how did he respond to that? You know, his because there was some exchange of words, and so the friend was like, "Hey, you guys, just chill." I'm like, "Well, tell your tell your homeboy to chill," you know.

Yeah. Um. And so, and that was that was pretty much it, you know. But but I'm like, hey, you know, just because you see me with my Trump gear on, it doesn't give you the right to insult me because I'm still human, and I will I will clap back, and I will defend my presence.

Well, you are from Memphis. I mean, we have a history. Doing that, so that's that's whenever people get upset with me for doing that on the radio, I'm like, "Hey, Memphis, what can I? You know, you know, our family's from White Haven. That's right.

We're from this. We're from the same hood. We're from the same hood. Yeah, exactly. I, I, I'm curious.

When you're out there, and there's you're out on the campaign trail, you've been doing a lot of campaigning for candidates. What is it going to take, and is it working? Are we starting to see more minority He's joining the Republican side. Absolutely, I as I I feel that there is a big surge. I I even two of my aunts that have been hard hard liberals, hard Democrats.

You're talking about in their seventies; they just voted red. Really, they just voted red.

So when you're talking about changing the tide from our elders, especially when they've been voting blue their whole entire lives. Yes, absolutely. That we're seeing, we're seeing the change. We're tired. We're tired, and for the first time, we can act.

We actually see change, and we want that. But you know, considering where we are, I know here in Memphis, we're very, very blue. But at the same time, we still want more, and because of that, I do see a tide changing for sure. My, this is exciting. And so, your son is doing well.

You know, I know he plays what in the marching band. Yes.

Actually, just won his first competition last night. Is that right? Yes.

So, shout out to Havenview Middle School. They just won their first competition last night for the Battle of the Bands. Hoping I've been told he may be getting a promotion soon, where he's going to be the section leader for the trumpet section.

So, I'm just so excited. He's just been just flourishing. Oh, good for him! I know Dylan's ears just perked up because Dylan was a trump. He was in the marching band at U of M.

He played trumpet. Awesome! Yes, trumpet player. Are like absolutely the best. I I wish I played in a band.

I'm actually living through my son, but he's um. I'm just so proud, and you know, and I'm just so grateful, you know, with all of this that my children get a chance to see their mom doing great things. I I love that, Dylan. You can come down off the high. Yes, I see you over there.

Good players are the best. I hear it. Yeah, I agree.

Well, Delicia, we're look. I'm excited because, and again, on this. When I moved back home to Memphis, I realized we had a problem here. You know, it's it's not us versus them; it's us together. You know, and that's you know, I I heard a speech from Lee Zeldin, who was a longtime congressman out of New York, and he said, "Here's the deal: it's got to be authentic; it's got to be real.

There's you can't pander to anybody. There has to be this camaraderie, and and I see that happening here in Memphis. And Delicia, God bless you. I just I'm excited. For the great work you're doing out there, thank you.

You know, I'm just so grateful to have the support of our Tennessee constituents, Marsha Blackburn, Kustoff, Brent Taylor. I'm just, I'm so honored. You know, for them, you know, just utilizing me and seeing me as that voice, you know, and especially with my connection to, you know, President Trump and and just spreading the good word and spreading the good news because I feel that people are listening to me, um, and so I want to utilize that and again, just. Spread the good word so that we can make America great again. I love it.

All right, Delicia Ballinger, good to see you. My pleasure. Thank you for having me. All right, folks, we're going to take a quick break there, and I hope that you are encouraged by that conversation. Our telephone number nine zero one two six zero five nine two six.

Again, that number nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. This is the Todd Stern Show. All right, welcome back, everybody. This is the Tom Sterns Radio Show. President Trump holding rallies yesterday in Kansas and Iowa, and people there were fired up.

And you heard Speaker Johnson, and the Speaker was with the president at at those rallies, and said there were some fifteen thousand people that were not even able to get inside. Here is one of those. Rally goers cut number eight, please.

So we're from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and we just want to be able to support Trump and just whatever everything he's doing for us. I mean, you know, there's so much negativity about him, and it's just the you know he's he's dealt the the card he's been dealt.

So it's like we appreciate everything he's doing.

So it's like we want to be able to be the support for him. We're talking about about a guy that took a bullet for us, a bullet for our country. Here, oh, that's a true patriot. That's a that's a man that is for the people of the United States, and you know that he's always thinking about. Us first, and for our futures, fight, fight, fight.

We got to vote, vote, vote. Though you vote already, you going to vote on election day? Voting on election day, doing it the real way. All right, yeah, no, we we got to vote no matter what. We got to get in there and vote.

Yeah, we do. I mean it's it's really that simple. We we do.

Now the question is, what do you think is going to happen tomorrow? And we're going to look. It's really it's a matter of conjecture, but I'm just curious. There are no at this moment there are no right or wrong answers. Tomorrow, after we count all the votes, there will be right and wrong answers.

But today, no right or wrong answers. I know a lot of you are are very frustrated over the lack of work by the Republicans, and they those are all justified concerns. But I'm I'm just curious, and how you feel like tomorrow is going to go. You think the Republicans are going to be able to pull this off? Because this will be something in a historic election if the Republicans are able to win.

Typically, the the the party that wins the presidency and has control of the House and Senate do not do well in the midterms. Typically, they lose.

So the question is, how do you think things are going to go tomorrow? Nine zero one two six zero five nine two six is our telephone number. That's nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. We're going to be taking your calls. By the way, I've got to tell you about a special friend of the program.

I want you to go all the way back to twenty twenty. I mean, how many times have you turned on the news and you've just really felt powerless watching whatever new health scare they're pushing?

Well, back in 2020, the late Doctor Zev Zelenko he saw that same helplessness in his own patients, and that's why he formulated what came to be known as ZStack, so patients could fight back with their own immune systems. He was a front-line physician, being interviewed everywhere. Even working with the White House and getting mentioned by President Trump at a news conference for his life-saving Zolinko protocol, Dr. Zolinko did not guess every ingredient in ZStack, specifically chosen based on real research, formulated at the exact doses your immune system has to have. He got attacked.

He was deplatformed for years because he did the right thing, and he was also proven one hundred percent right.

Now, over five years later, that resilience endures to carry on his legacy with his original formula for ZStack. It's robust. It's a daily immune support that your body needs to stand strong against. And folks. Forget about what they're trying to sell you on TV.

Take control of your immune system and give your body what it needs to fight. And now they're having the biggest discount they've ever offered. You're going to be able to get started today for just four dollars and ninety five cents plus shipping and handling. That's four ninety five plus shipping and handling. You're going to get the biggest discount in their history at ZStackLife.com/sarns.

Again, that's ZStackLife.com com slash starnes. Be sure to go check out ZStack. You're gonna love it. Trust me on that. All right, hang tight, folks.

We've got hour two of the big show coming up a little bit later on. We're going to be talking to our friend John Tychert about that crazy plane crash just about nine miles from Maralago. What makes this interesting is that. The surfaced they have surfaced to air an anti missile defense systems now set up not only around the Mar-a-Lago perimeter but also at Donald J Trump International Airport there in Palm Beach had nothing to do with it. But again, I think it's an interesting it's just an interesting footnote here that people are very concerned and alarmed by what's happening over the skies of Palm Beach, Florida, over there in South Florida.

So. We're going to talk to General Tygart about about all of that coming up a little bit later on. Plus, well, your calls nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. Again, that's nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. Hang tight, everybody!

Hour two of the big show coming up next. From Memphis, Tennessee, on the banks of the mighty Mississippi, it's America's conservative blowtorch. That's us. That's right. I love this American ride.

Todd Starz. Oh yeah. All right, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Election Eve here on the Todd Stern's Radio Show, and we have got a lot going on. We just heard a little a little while ago from House Speaker Mike Johnson, who is in a very good mood, and he is feeling very bullish about the the chances of a huge Republican victory tomorrow. The New York Times, meanwhile, their final polling is out, and Nate Silver.

Actually categorized their predictions as a blue tsunami, meaning the Democrats would take over the House and the Senate.

So we're taking your calls today, and I'm just curious: How are you guys feeling? How do you think tomorrow is going to go? If the Republicans do not win, who is who is to blame for that? And why why why are Republicans so hesitant about getting out and voting?

So our telephone number. Write this down nine. Nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. That's nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. I want to go to the phone lines.

Charles is listening to us in North Carolina. WSIC and Charles, the Speaker of the House, is actually in North Carolina doing some campaign rallies today. What's going on?

Well, I. Agree with Speaker Johnson, Tide. I guess over the weekend and just after, you know, reading and and talking to people, I'm going to make a prediction that I think the Republicans are going to hang on to the Senate with roughly the same majority that they have now, and I think we're going to hang on to the House. And the reason I say that, Tide, is because I think Americans. As frustrated as they are with the economy, and a lot of us about the war, we recognize what the alternative is: these crazy leftists, these Muslim jihadists that are that are running for office.

And I think people are finally waking up, and they they recognize that hey, we cannot turn the country over to these people. And we're going to give the Republicans one more chance to deliver on what they promised in 2024, and you know before that. But I think Republicans are going to show up in mass tomorrow. I mean, people I talked to a lot of people over the weekend that are voting on election day, and I think the polling has you know oversampled Democrats, they've undersampled Republicans. I myself have been called and texted multiple times by pollsters, and I just don't even respond to it.

And if I'm not responding, I know other people aren't responding either. Charles, let me let me ask you a question about North Carolina because you've got a big Senate race here. Michael Watley going up against former North Carolina Governor Cooper, Roy Cooper, and all indications are it's not going to go good for Republicans there. Is is that an is that an accurate observation of what's happening there in North Carolina? Todd, unfortunately, yes.

I think Michael Wattley has run a horrible campaign. I mean, Roy Cooper was low-hanging fruit with what he did to the state during COVID, and Michael Wattley did not run any attack ads against Roy Cooper to you know point that out to draw the clear contrast between him and Roy Cooper. And I just think he's been out positioned. I don't know who was advising him, but this is the Senate seat that we could have held. I you know I thought.

But I don't know about Georgia, but I think I think the Republicans are going to win Michigan. I just can't see voters voting for a Muslim candidate up there. I mean, I know all the Muslims and the Communists are going to show up and vote for him. And I also hope the Jews and Christians turn out and vote for Mike Rogers, you know, because he's a Christian. I think we're going to hold on to Ohio, Kansas, in Texas.

I just cannot see. Texans voting for that Palos Rico with I mean that guy is just he's a weird bird, Todd, and I just cannot see him winning. But I I think that that's what's going to happen on Wednesday morning when we wake up. I think the Republicans are going to hold, and Todd, I think the Democrats are going to raise holy hell, and it could be chaos for for days and weeks after that because I don't think they're going to accept the outcome of the election. No, I and that is that is a concern that they will not accept the outcome.

We're already seeing bits of violence here and there. I would not be surprised if we see full-on violence, especially if if some of those races are close and they could be close as a result of some Republicans deciding, you know, what we're just not going to go and vote. But again, I I like your attitude, Charles, because. We we give them one more chance, and if they blow it, then we can deal with it in in twenty twenty eight. But right now we've we've got to put a stop to to people like you know Abdul El Sayed and people like Justin Pearson in Tennessee and James Talafrico down in Texas.

Yeah, I mean because over the next two years, if these people are put in office, Todd, it's going to be investigations. It's going to be nothing. It's going to be total gridlock. Nothing is going to get done. I mean, it's just going to be a disaster.

And I think enough Republicans recognize that. At least the ones that I'm talking to, and they're finally saying, "You know what? I can't fit this one out, no matter how I feel about this or that." I've got to get out and vote. It's not just about me. It's about my kids, about my grandkids.

I mean, you know, everything that our founders created. These people want to destroy and burn down, and we're just not going to let that happen.

So I think you're going to you're going to see a big a big turnout tomorrow among Republicans, and hopefully Wednesday morning. Or later this week, if we can have a conversation, we'll be we'll be celebrating. Yeah, yep.

So we're we're suspending our our rule when it comes to phone to phone calls on the show this week because I suspect a lot of folks are are going to want to weigh in.

So Charles, we'll be talking to you later this week. Thank you for calling in. Thank you for listening to WSIC. Let's go to Texas. Melissa is listening to us on Patriot Talk 920.

Melissa, we were talking about Talafrico. How do you think things are going to play out tomorrow? Oh my goodness! Good afternoon, Todd. Two things before I answer that: Happy belated birthday!

And it was such a pleasure to meet you at Collectors Firearms in Houston on the twentieth. Thank you, and Melissa. That was that was a fun event. I wasn't sure how well guns and booze were going to pair together, but it was a great night. It was fun.

As I told the person who answered the phone, I am a ball of nerves today. I hope every Republican gets out and votes that hasn't already. And I'm seeing more Telefrico signs even in areas I've never seen them in before, as far as the Democrat signs go.

So that's kind of unnerving. I just hope and pray that everyone does their due diligence and doesn't put this one out. and Vote straight red. That's what we have to do, Melissa. I I think one of the great unknowns there in Texas, just exactly how many Republicans are establishment Republicans who you know support people like John Cornyn or the Bushes or Carl Rove.

Are are are there going to be enough of those people who stay home and don't vote or vote for Talarico that it could cause some problems? See, that's my fear: is that they'll go vote and they'll purposely vote on the Democratic side. Yeah, that to me, if that's the case, I just assume they stay home. Yeah, exactly. No, I think you're exactly, exactly right there.

I know. Yesterday, I was at church, and that's all people were talking about before the service was. You know, what? How do you think things are going to play? I have to imagine people are talking about that in Texas.

Oh my gosh! That's all people are talking about here in Texas.

So, just hope and pray everything goes to the Republicans, and all we can do is. Vote and pray. That's all we can do at this point. Melissa, those are two good things for anybody to do.

So, thank you for the great advice. Give us a call back tomorrow. Let us know how things are going out there at the polling places, and we sure to appreciate you listening to Patriot Talk nine twenty. Good people there at that radio station. All right, we're going to take a quick break here, folks.

Nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. That's nine zero one two six zero five nine. Nine two six. May I tell you about my friends at War Horses for Heroes? They are doing some incredible work, working with military veterans suffering from things like PTSD, and introducing these brave warriors to horses.

And it is a wonderful, wonderful program. War Horses for Heroes. They need your help. They're looking for volunteers. They're looking for donors.

They're looking for people. That just might be willing to lend a helping hand to their great work and, and quite frankly, a wonderful ministry. The the website address, if you'd like more information about War Horses for Heroes, go to WarHorsesForHeroes dot org. That's WarHorsesForHeroes dot org. All right, welcome back, everybody.

This is the Ton Stearns Radio Show. Looking at these numbers out of out of Texas, and they're they're really fascinating because if if these things are true, if the polling data is in fact true, then we got big problems in the country. But if they're not, then how in the world can you ever trust? The New York Times, or YouGov, or Trafalgar Group, or any of these other polling groups out there.

So, here are the the latest numbers. And by the way, the last time Texans elected a Democrat to the Senate, nineteen eighty eight.

So we're talking about thirty eight years ago. That was Lloyd Benson was the Was the senator there, and he was technically—I mean—that they were kind of Republicans, you know, back in the day. Even the Democrats from Texas. New York Times has Talarico beating Ken Paxton. This is yesterday's polling data that came out yesterday.

The Times says that Talarico beats Paxton. By seven points, fifty percent to forty-three percent of the vote. U Gov has Tallerico winning fifty-one percent to forty-seven percent, and the Trafalgar Group, which you know we're real big fans of Trafalgar, they actually have the race tied up at forty-eight apiece.

So, you folks listening to us across Texas right now, are you surprised by those numbers? And how do you think that's going to turn out tomorrow? Nine zero one two six zero five nine two six our number. That's nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. Ninety two year old lady attends her first ever Trump rally.

Here's what she had to say. Cut seven. What brings you out here today to support Trump?

Well, we got to keep that guy going. We love Trump. He's been the best thing that's happened to America in my lifetime, and I'm an old lady now.

Well, is this the first time you're getting to see the president? Yes, it is my first rally, and I'm really excited about it. Oh, she's telling me you're 92. Yes.

And best president in those ninety-two years, also. Ninety-two years. This is the best president we've ever seen. That's for sure. God bless you.

You got the energy of Trump to be able to do this. Right? He's eighty years old and he's traveling all over the country. You got twelve years on the guy, and you're out here to support him. I'm blessed.

You are truly blessed, and we're blessed to have you at the rally today.

So, thanks. Give a message to President Donald Trump. We love you. We love you. Amen.

God bless you. Well, how about that? And it's again going back to the conversation we had with Delicia Ballinger just a little while ago, talking about black voters who are dropping the Democrat Party. Their chains have been loosed and they have been set free from the Democrat Party plantation. Cut number nine.

So why would a party want open borders? Why would they want to allow millions of single military age men to come into this country and those with views that are antithetical to the values of American society and to cause financial harm and be a safety risk to its citizens? Why would they do this? They say it's compassion. No, it's not.

I offer two reasons. One. Is because they need a permanent underclass. They need a group of people who is going to call them daddy, who will go to them for their sustenance, for food, for shelter, and then they will be beholden to those group of politicians, and they will continue to vote them in and keep them in power. And they are voting.

They do have access to the ballot box. This is the reason why we need to have. Voter ID, and this is why they fight so hard against it. And the second reason is because every vote of an illegal voids the vote of an American citizen. And as we move away from the teeth of the government, as we move closer to the ideals of smaller government.

Not big government. It is a threat, and they need to replace us. That's the mission. They are replacing us with the groups of people that they bring into this country that will be beholden to them. But I say, not on our watch.

Yeah, I'm telling you, and I just keep hearing from a lot of black voters who say, "Yeah, we're done with the Democrats." And we're we're willing to give the Republicans, you know, a crack at this. And I say, good. I mean, let's let's see what happens here. Cut fifteen, please. Listen up, everybody.

I just wanted to make sure I let everybody know. Yes, I already voted. Read all the way down. Byron Donalds is going to take Florida. I already know.

We all have to make sure that we get up and vote because without our voices being heard, us Republicans, we do not want these crazy liberals to be, you know, in office. We don't want no radical leftism. We don't want none of that stuff. When I seen some videos that girls are like, "Oh my God, we're gonna vote for El Sayid for women's rights." I wish y'all ladies could go to Afghanistan and ask them people over there if they have the right to vote, but they wouldn't even be able to answer you because they're not allowed to speak in public. If that's the stuff that you want to bring here to the United States, you are absolutely nuts and crazy.

We need to keep the American dream alive, keep everybody safe here in the United States, and we gotta get rid of these. Ideology.

So please remember, go out and vote, man. That's the only way we can save this country, man, from this radicalism. Have a good day. You have a good day too, ma'am. Thank you for that.

And oh, look again, ladies and gentlemen, something exciting is happening here in in America, and I hope you can feel that. People are just sick and tired of being sick and tired. I mean, they really are.

Now. This is a fascinating look at what we can expect if these Muslims continue to gain ground in our communities. This story involves a Muslim woman living in Michigan, and she doesn't want to send her daughter to a public school in Dearborn because the boys and girls are still together in classrooms, and that goes against Islam. It goes against Sharia.

So now she said that she's going to move to another town in Michigan called Hamtramck. I think I've got that correctly pronounced, but who knows? Anyway, this town is all Muslim as well, but in Hamtramck they actually segregate men and women. I think I'm butchering the name of this town. Bear with me.

I'm going to get a call. The woman says, "We don't want to send our daughter to a Dearborn public school because in Dearborn you go to Big Big Apple Bagels or you go to a coffee shop and you see boys and girls hanging out like it's nothing, like they're proud of it. And we don't want her to think it's okay to hang out with boys in public. We don't want her to think it's okay to hang out with boys in general. Is she a lesbian or something?

What's going on there?" In in the other town, Hamtrank, it's all Muslims. It's Muslims, Bosnians, Albanians, whole type of mixture of Muslims, and they are protected. If you go to a coffee shop there, you won't see a group of guys and girls hanging out together, which is something, um, which is which is a pro, which is something I like, and I want to instill in my daughter.

So there you have it, ladies and gentlemen. That'll be coming to your town. I'm just telling you, people. There are people that they have no idea. They have no idea the danger they are playing with here.

It is a fire, and it will spread, folks. Pay attention. Pay attention to what they're telling us, because they will deliver on those promises. And I don't know if there are enough. I don't know.

There are enough Christians in the country to stop what's coming. I really don't. All right, gotta take a break here. Nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. This is the Todd Stern Show.

All right, trick or treating, Dylan.

I'm curious did did you guys do the the trick or treating over the weekend? I did no trick or treating, Todd. Sad. Is that so? You stayed home then.

I stayed home. I don't. I used to do that when I still lived with my parents. We would wait, you know, because we lived in like a cove, so it's very easy for kids to come around. But now I live in like an apartment condo, so if I I feel like if I skip out on it, they're not going to really.

Punish me with TP or any eggs or anything like that.

So you, so you, so you don't participate. You don't go door knocking. No, I don't. You're not one of those grown-ups. I didn't even buy a costume for myself this year.

I didn't participate in any way. And well, and also, you did not have any candy to give out to the children. No, I bought candy for myself. Wow, I did the. I did the buy after Halloween deal that most stores do.

It's like half off candy. That's that's the best. Oh wow! All right, so so you you stayed home and enjoy any particular? I know it's a but got to be Butterfingers, Butterfingers, Reese's.

I got all the stuff. The Holy Trinity, the Holy in Hershey's, the Kit Kat. You got to have the Kit Kat. Kit Kat. All right.

What about Ian? Did he do the? I think he did a church event. Yeah, I think Ian did do church. Church.

Yeah. Church. But he said that it wasn't a Hell House church event. Oh wow! So okay, you described, or we call it.

Not demolition day. What is it? What does they call it? They call it Hell House or something else?

Something scary that has like a church message in there. Yeah, Apocalypse Day or something. Yeah, I don't know. You know the church thing. They still do things at but Fall Festival, and you you have to dress up like a biblical character.

Yeah, they don't call it Halloween. No, that makes it okay. Ball Fest and a biblical character, and you're good, or Elvis. Yeah, but everybody still dresses up in a Halloween costume, and they still do everything.

So, so anyway, I'm curious here because there is, and we have the video posted on our socials.

So if you go to my Instagram, and you'll see the video. But I'm I'm not talking about just one or two. I'm talking about dozens of videos.

So homeowners are just really upset because little thugs, we call them thuglings, here on the Todd Stern's Radio Show. Little thuglings would go up to their their front porch and they would just. Scoop out all as much candy as they can, and they threw it into their bag, and off they off they scampered. And people are really upset about it, and they're noticing one one one homeowner actually pointed out, and I am just sharing this. We're not making some sort of a cultural pronouncement here, but in one massive video, that and the guy did this with his ring cam.

They notice that the white children, which would walk up, and they would grab one piece of candy.

Meanwhile, the minority children would grab as much as they could possibly haul away. And I'm thinking, isn't that the point? I mean, first of all, who in their right mind just leaves candy unattended on the front porch? A fool. I I mean, in this country, in this day and age, you can't leave anything on your front porch unattended, much less candy on Halloween.

If that happened in Memphis, they wouldn't even bother scooping it. They just take the whole bowl or Jack O' Lantern or whatever it is. Your bucket's gone. That's it.

So my favorite ones are the ones that have like scary themes to them.

So if you try to grab it, the the little animatronic thing will grab your hand or something. It'll punish you for trying to grab candy. I mean, what do you what? Do we have this audio? We don't because there is so much cursing in it.

But I will work on it.

Okay, I want you to work on this because this apparently is a big deal. Let me know when we get this ready, Dylan. It's the craziest story, but a lot of homeowners are just really frustrated. They're saying this is a sign of the culture, and that parents are not raising their kids. To respect, you know, respect authority.

And for example, I'll just share this with you. Back when I was a kid growing up, we were taught you get one piece of candy, and normally there was none of this like leaving it on the porch. No, no, no. You had to like ring the doorbell, and you had to wait for the homeowner to open the door, and then you say "Trick or treat," and then the the person will compliment your costume. And then you know, give you candy.

So, what happened to those days? Are parents still teaching that? Because the only thing I could figure is that when. When I was looking at these videos, all I could think of was, "This is they're teaching these kids. This is what the modern day Halloween SNAP program looks like.

You take everything you can from a law-abiding homeowner and get out a Dodge." It isn't that when you look at all the fraud and the graft in our SNAP programs nationwide, isn't that what isn't that what they're doing? I'm just, I'm just telling you. It's it's a mess. But I mean, and by the way, there's some videos where the kids aren't even dressing up in outfits. You know, the parent and the parents are in on it, so the parents are driving the getaway cars.

And I know this happened in one of the suburbs of Memphis. I believe it was in Lakeland, Tennessee, and the homeowner captured it all on the ring cam, where it was almost like a drive-by.

Some car comes screeching up.

Some kid jumps out, grabs all the candy, and boom. They're out of there. That's it.

No, no more candy for the rest of you children. But that's that's what they're dealing with out there. I just think it's sad. Is it thievery? I, I mean, I guess an argument could be made.

But it's Halloween, and you're you're giving away. I mean, could you charge them under the porch pirate? I, I, is there a porch pirate law? I don't know. I like the idea, though, putting like some scary, like rednecks with like like animatronics, right?

And so when they get close, the urchins, when they get close, you start hearing banjo music from like Deliverance, ne'er ne'er ne'er ne'er ne'er ne'er ne'er ne'er, and maybe a pig squealing. If you haven't seen Deliverance, you have no idea what I am talking about. But those of you who have seen Deliverance, you know exactly what I am talking about. I am just saying, how are we doing, Dylan? It's a lot of cursing.

I'm almost done. How much bad language is there? This lady has got a potty mouth, Todd.

So the audio we're about to play you play for you is a a black lady shows up, and oh, by the way, she's riding shotgun.

So there are two women in in the in this video, and then all their children. They're not even wearing costumes. They're wearing like. I love pajamas. They're wearing pajamas.

All of them are wearing pajamas. There's no theme to this, unless it's pajamas. The theme is we want your candy. The theme is we just got out of bed and we're coming to take your take your candy. Give me that.

Give me that Twister roll. Are we ready? I think so.

Okay, here we go.

So this is the mother who stole you. You took everything. You took forty juice boxes. I did.

So where's it at? I got you on the everything. I want it all back. That's crazy. Ignorant.

That's not how you do stuff. Don't from you. You don't steal. That's what you get for stealing. You get put on blast.

All right, don't give me nothing back. You're stealing from other kids.

Now keep it. You're stealing from other kids.

Oh, to take everything! I put it. I was gone ten minutes and everything's gone. Up there, get the out my face.

So you ruining kids Halloween? You are? Are you serious? You just stole everything! I had a hundred and sixty-something pieces out there.

They didn't take no hundred and sixty-something. Get the cut all the juice boxes. Allowed to record. I can record what I want. Thieves!

You guys are thieves! I shouldn't have put it outside. That is crazy! Crackhead looking ass! You a crackhead looking ass?

Where's your teeth? Oh my! I hope she didn't get the milk duds. That's going to be hard if you don't have teeth. That's really hard.

You can't. Where are you going to get that out of? She called him a cracker ass, and he called her a cracker head or crackhead. My, in front of the children, in front of everybody. There was like a whole family there.

All right, I'm listening to all of this this whole thing here, and I just have one question: Who gives away juice boxes? Forty, forty, a hundred, forty juice boxes and a hundred and sixty pieces of candy, all gone.

So, the woman is making the argument that you shouldn't have left it out on your front porch. Yeah, she literally said you shouldn't have left it out if you didn't want people to take it. Yeah. Well, maybe she has a point there, but again, the reality here is that people steal. And they've got no problem with it.

They feel like they're obligated to your stuff. Oh yeah, they're very entitled. That that was a very entitled video right there. Very much so. Very much so.

All right, ladies and gentlemen, who's in the wrong here? Was it the homeowner who expected people to practice basic common civility, or is it the the thiever, the crackhead thieves? Nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. Our number. That's nine zero one two six zero five nine two six.

This is the Todd Stern Show. All right, let's go to David in San Francisco. All right, David, what do you think about the kids taking all the Halloween candy? Oh, I've seen it happen year after year. As a matter of fact, my girlfriend did the same thing.

We went to a concert that night, and she just put the bucket on the stairs and didn't worry about it. But You know, I'm a little more worried about in the big picture. Remember, two months ago, there was a Republican convention down in Dallas, and Donald Trump persuaded the entire audience to pledge to cheat like hell for the election.

Now, is that the same kind of thing? Should the Republicans cheat like hell in order to win this election? What do you mean that? When you're saying Trump said to cheat like hell, what do you mean by that? Oh, he said that exactly.

He got everybody to raise their hands, and he said, "I need you to cheat like hell." I don't recall that, David, at all. Very very easy to find. Just look, Dallas GOP midterm convention, cheap like hell. No, all the late night comedians were playing it. The news covered it.

Forbes magazine covered it. The idea that America has a guy that wants the Republican Party to cheat like hell.

So it was a joke. It was a joke. Even Reuters said it was a joke, and he was he was mocking he was mocking the Democrats. Uh huh.

So you are admitting that he did say it? Yeah, he was joking, David.

So what is that? I mean, look, the Democrats are literally out there cheating on the elections.

So you say? No, I. You've got twenty twenty thousand fraudulent ballots that are going before the Supreme Court from California alone, your home state.

So, so they say he started out with twenty million. Then he said one hundred and ten thousand. Then he's down to well, it's not even twenty thousand anymore. They say there. I know it's twenty thousand in California.

Twenty thousand in California alone that they know of. There might be twenty four people who actually are registered and should not be registered. Where's your evidence of that? Because they've got twenty thousand that they're taking to the Supreme Court, twenty thousand. Right, and they're still wrong, and they can't even admit to where they got that that list.

Right. Let me ask you something. No, no, I'm going to ask you. Let me ask you a question, David. And again, this is about the Democrats here.

How do you feel about Haley Stevens endorsing Mike Rogers out of Michigan?

Well, anybody that doesn't want to cheat like hell that has to admit that the Republican Party is cheating like hell, David. Where? Tell me. I want you to tell me right now. Has anybody been charged as a Republican for cheating at the ballot box?

Yes or no? The answer is no. By the way, Todd Todd Starnes isn't prosecuting anybody, right?

Well, well, right. Do I have to prosecute anybody? I'm a talk radio host. I'm not a prosecutor, David. No, no.

I mean, what's it? Todd, the Department of Justice. Oh, Todd Blanche. Yes, Todd Blanche. Right.

He's not prosecuting anybody, and he's not prosecuting anybody who's been arrested.

So wait, wait, wait.

So do you have do you have literal evidence that the Republicans have committed voter fraud? Where is your evidence? Oh, that came out in the twenty twenty. Where up in in Michigan, there were number you know a number two pencil is a little darker than a number one pencil. Where is your evidence, David?

I'm given it. They they handed out number one pencils at the ballot at the ballot sites, and they should have put out number two pencils. And they excluded hundreds of thousands of voters because they used a number one pencil on the on their ballots. They intentionally gave the wrong pencils.

So that the the voters would be cheated, and that's how Trump won in in that election. David, think of it. That was David. That is that is simply outrageous. It's just outrageous.

And again, you come to the conversation with no with no proof, David. We're going to have to leave it there. Thank you for calling. Let's go to Louise in Georgia. Louise, what say you?

I tell you what, you had that case from you know where.

Well, I know it's a very big Democrat. Voting is what I do want to talk about, but a couple of things, and I haven't bothered you in a long time, so let me just have my little monologue here.

Well, you've got about ninety seconds for that monologue, Louise.

So let's get to it. I can do it. I can do it. We know they cheat, but this is what bothers me: is you know everybody says only we can change anything is vote.

Well, if they're cheating, how in the world are we going to ever change it? But the other thing the Americans want to see is these people prosecuted, like that governor. It is not being prosecuted, but other people are. The Somalians are being prosecuted. He needs to be sent too.

But I won't pay. The people not pay any attention to the polls in 24. I mean, they may not like that moron. And Trump were neck and neck. Don't believe any of that crap.

This in Georgia is not a Democratic state, and they they talk about a tsunami. We're going to have a river run red, blood red tomorrow. I'm not worried about anything. I know we're going to win it.

Well, let me just let me just say this, Louise, about about Georgia, and this is an unpopular thing to say among the MAGA crowd, but it needs to be said. President Trump, when he told Georgia voters specifically not to go and vote in that Senate race, That's why we're in the situation we're in right now in the state of Georgia, and and I hate to say it, but it's the truth.

So we've got to make sure that. And I'm with you. I believe Georgia is a red state. That's very clear by you know the the results of the the gubernatorial race when Brian Kemp won a second term in office. No doubt about that.

But we've got to start playing smart politics, and Republicans are going to lose if we don't get out and. Vote, and we've already proven that to be the case in Georgia.

So we've got to make sure that we do the right thing and vote, vote, vote. Louise, thank you for the call. All right, hang tight, everybody. Hour three of the big show coming up next. This is the Todd Stern Show.

From Memphis, Tennessee, it's America's favorite gun-toting, Bible-clinging, deplorable American. That's love. That's right. Our love is American. All right, welcome everybody.

Hour three of the big show. I want to go back and and address something. In the last segment of the program, the last hour, we had a guy David from San Francisco call again and alleged that. What thousands, if not tens of thousands, I think he may have said twenty thousand or more. I don't know.

I wasn't paying that close attention to the numbers, but he said thousands of ballots have been thrown out by Republicans, giving Trump the victory, and simply because people had used a number one pencil instead of a number two pencil. That story is completely untrue. It is absent. There's no evidence of of that happening. There there was a story back in the 1920s that that resulted in over 2,000 ballots being rejected because election inspectors had initialled those ballots with erasable pencils.

That was in 1923. Trump was not on the ballot in 1923. Just want to point that out.

So, welcome to the show, everybody. It's Monday.

Sometimes we're going to get these calls. What do you What do you want me to do? We've got a lot going on. We're going to get to your calls. Hang tight.

I know we have Jeff in Memphis, Bob in Maryland, Marie in Georgia. Hang tight. We're going to get to your calls in just a moment. I want to go though to the Patriot Mobile Newsmaker line. Say hello to a good friend, retired Brigadier General John Tygart.

And we call him Dragon. That's your and how long have you been called Dragon? Todd, thanks for having me on. I am indeed a fighter pilot by background, and I got my fighter pilot call sign of Dragon all the way back in 1998. Is that right?

So, so wow, that's that's going back going back a few years. It is typically your first assignment. They gather some stories about you, and they try to give you a cool-sounding name, no doubt. Dragon is based on something stupid you did. And I'm not going to bore your listeners and or indulge anything that I'm not supposed to.

But has to do is there goes to Spain and nuclear weapons.

Well, we can just use our imaginations there. No, I thought about you last night. Our church had a big orchestra concert, and they they started out. the the the concert with the theme song to How to Train a Train How to Train a Dragon.

So what I thought of. My wife carefully watched that movie to see if she could get any tips, and she didn't find anything. No tips at all. There's nothing there. General, we wanted you to come on to talk about a couple of things.

First, this insane crash yesterday in Florida, about nine miles from Mar a Lago, and it was a Learjet, and it's just really shocking. The we've heard the audio from inside the cockpit. And I can't even imagine the horror that must have unfolded. We now understand one person has been identified out of the nine people on board—a twenty-year-old. She was a co-pilot there on the flight.

What do you What do you make of what happened? I know Governor Ron DeSantis said it sounded like a missile coming down. Todd, first of all, thanks for your morning email. I got to hear the cockpit audio and the air traffic control audio for the first time this morning, based on the link in your email.

So thank you for that. And the thing that I found most shocking is that if you're paying attention to the radio calls, there is a span of less than thirty seconds. Where everything is clearly just fine, and then it gets frantic in less than thirty seconds. And I know the National Transportation Safety Board just had their initial press conference. I watched that, and they're going to get to the root cause of what happened and why.

But something happened during those few seconds that created the emergency that ended up in that disaster. Is there any way to extrapolate what may have happened just as result of the video? Where it's one of these rare instances where we actually have video of the plane making impact, and it looked like it was going full speed as it was coming down. It was like a missile, Todd. And I know that the immediate cause is going to be something related to flight controls and structures.

But going back to the root cause, what prompted a problem with the plane—that was a flight control problem or a structural problem—will be for the investigators, and they're going to scour every possible root cause to see if they can find something in air traffic control, or something in weather, or something in maintenance, or Something in the pilot or copilot's training that would have caused the root cause of this, but certainly the impact is telling in how the airplane was maneuvering at the end game. And the question is, based on everything that we know, how did it get to that point?

Well, it's um, and the plane, it's a, I mean, what about a two million dollar plane? There, the Learjet, those are pretty popular. They are they are commonly proliferated. I've flown varieties of Learjet. They're reliable, but you know the first thing that the NTSB investigators are going to do is quarantine all of the records, maintenance records, weather records, pilot and copilot records, air traffic control records, to make sure they have the data gathered, and then they're going to use their expertise over the course of the next month to painstakingly recreate what happened, but more importantly, figure out.

Why it happened and apply what they learn to make sure it can never happen again. My goodness, is there any indication that maybe something broke off of the plane that would have you know resulted in the the pilots not having any control at all? Tod, when I say a structural problem, that's a little bit what I'm implying. And when you go to the root cause, was there a structural problem or a flight control problem because of something that went wrong in maintenance? Or could it have been caused by something like the weather conditions in which they were flying?

And if so, would it have been preventable if they would have known what they should have known? Or could they have recovered, depending on where it happened during that sequence?

So yes, it's possible that something could have structurally failed. But the question then would be, why did that happen? And that's what investigators are trying to figure out. We have Brigadier General John Tygart joining us. Dragon is his call sign.

Back in those days, there was the reason there was a. First of all, it was just a horrible, horrible story. But I think a lot of folks were very concerned because just the day before they had announced that they were setting up anti-missile defense systems around Mar-a-Lago as well as Donald J. Trump International Airport. Of course, that had absolutely nothing to.

With this, but a lot of folks are wondering what the heck is going on at Mar-a-Lago and J and Donald Trump International Airport. Todd, I just think it's good stewardship of the protection of the president that we know, especially based on threats from malign actors like Iran, that they're going to do whatever they can to harm the president and other governmental leaders. And so, not only do we need normal Secret Service protection for the president, but we need to make sure he's protected in every possible domain, and the air and missile domains are one of those that the adversary could. Use to try to strike out at the president, and I'm glad that he is having the protections installed around Mar-a-Lago, like they likely have around the White House and elsewhere, to make sure that he's protected in the right way, completely and robustly at all times. I mean, it's.

I mean, it makes a lot of sense, especially with nowadays when anybody could put up a drone armed with some sort of an explosive device or a chemical device or something, and I mean, within a matter of seconds, you could have a pretty serious. Serious situation on your hands. You could, and even if it's something like you said, as small as a drone, a quadcopter that you go to buy at Best Buy and you scrap something onto it, and you fly it to a place where you think you can hurt the president or hurt Air Force One. And so, I'm glad that we are creating this layered, full spectrum defense of the president based on the current knowledge we have about potential threats. And those are low end, like those drones, and they're high end, like missiles or airplanes, things that could hurt.

The president, we need to protect him from. Makes sense. I mean, it makes perfect sense. I, I, I love to get your take on this operation. What is it?

Pentagon's Fortress America operation. People, people are really freaking out about, and mostly on social media. But I, I saw a lot of people at the grocery store stocking up on, you know, canned goods and bottled water the other day. And people are really concerned that something may be about to happen. You had Bongino coming out and saying, "Hey, look, you need to be prepared." Others coming out, and I get that.

I don't think there's anything wrong with saying be prepared. But when you couple that with the the news. Coming out of the Pentagon, it kind of makes people wonder what is going on. Todd, I got a lot of calls from concerned people and concerned pastors last week about this topic, and I don't think there's any imminent large-scale threat against Americans. I think it's a bit of stewardship on the part of the Pentagon that our bases are high-impact targets.

And if a grid went down or an attack happened, then they need some level of self-sustainability so that they can accomplish their mission in the spite in spite of the threats that could be out there. And then going back to Americans. Individuals, I believe that we should have some level of water and food and power and security as individuals, so that if the power grid goes down because of a natural disaster or a malign actor, then we can take care of ourselves. That's good stewardship for a few days before our communities are able to get back on their feet. You know, you know what I've got, Dragon.

I've I've started doing a little bit of the whole prep stuff because you know you you do want to be prepared. I've got a giant Rand McNally map because you know if the grid goes down and all of it, you know, you're not going to be able to ask Siri to get you from point A to point B. I get, I, I'm ready. I may be the only guy in America that can get you from point A to point B on the Rand McNally. Todd, there's a lot of people that don't know how to read those things.

I'm glad people like you and I do, and maybe I should spend some time teaching my kids how to read an old school map or almanac so they can figure themselves out when the grid goes down. Oh, that's it! I got the almanac too. But look, here's you got to teach them how to drive while unfolding the map and maintaining the car, the vehicle on the roadway. I mean, that's it's a high risk situation, no doubt.

It adds a whole different level of risk. Yeah. And difficulty just performing the basic task of driving. Wow! All right.

So again, if they're not checking TikTok, they're probably a lot. It's look. It's a it's a great point. I did say this. If you've got a talk radio host or any other podcaster, and they're out there, and one of their big national sponsors is a prepper, you need to just think before you jump in and you know start spending a million dollars on a bunker because there may be a financial.

Yeah. Consider the source and consider their inspiration or why they're so inclined to talk about such an issue. And you're right. You're wise to maybe take a step back. We call it in the flying community "wind the clock," which means take an assessment of the situation before you jump in to do anything drastic.

And sure enough, it is wise to be prepared, but we don't need to overdo it because there's nothing imminent about the current threat. That's it.

All right, Dragon. Always good hearing from you, my friend. Thank you, Todd. All right, Brigadier General John Tycert, bringing wise words to all of us on the Patriot Mobile Newsmaker line. Dylan, we're not going to name names.

We had a we had a one of those prepper companies that wanted us to do a they wanted to do an ad buy, and they sent us like some of the samples of the stuff. And all I can tell you is we tried some of it. And I'm thinking, you know what? The if if that's if that's the alternative, just can can I just be vaporized in the initial blast? Wow!

Be done with it.

Well, you're not supposed to have to use it until really you're getting down to the wire, probably. Yeah, I'm sitting here going, yeah, that's what I had to look forward to. You know, in post-apocalyptic America, it's better just to end it all. The powdered green beans. Yeah.

That'll get you going. Yes, indeed. Yes, indeed. You know, it is funny though when you think about it. Could America real?

I mean, the vast majority of Americans could they really survive? You know, if the grid went down for like six months, three to six months. I don't think they could. I couldn't do it for six days, probably. No, I don't have trust in my fellow Americans.

People are going to freak. They're going to lose their minds. Just try being off Facebook or or TikTok for you know twenty four hours. I think there is an actual stat of like seventy two hours or something like that, where it's like. Past that, it's all just chaos.

I think humanity collapses in seventy-two hours. I think we really, I think it really would be that quick. It's terrible. You would think it would be a little bit longer, but knowing, seeing how COVID went, like, yeah, no people lose their loved ones. Yeah, yeah, you got to be prepared.

So, all right, we're going to take a quick break. You know, let's go to Marie though. Marie's been holding on for a while before we before we go to break. Marie wants to weigh in on the election. Hi, Marie.

what's What's on your mind? Hi, Todd. How are you? I'm well. Good.

Well, I'm the last thing that you guys were talking to someone in Georgia, and I just wanted to say that I've heard people calling in on shows, and they were mad at. Whoever and they said, "Oh, I'm not going to vote. I'm going to show them." And I was glad to hear you tell people get out and vote because it's just. I mean, I don't know why they think that they're holding back their little vote is going to make things better. And instead of going and voting for what they want, you know.

And we have somebody running for governor here that you know she was a mayor in Atlanta and quit in the middle of her or maybe toward the end of her term. And I just can't even believe she's on the ballot.

So I just wanted to tell you, thank you, and I enjoyed your interview with the colonel.

So just want to tell you that, Marie. Thank you so much. I appreciate you calling in. And yeah, we just got to get and vote. Ray Jackson's going to be a great governor for you guys.

I have no doubt about it. But we've got to get out and and vote, folks. Got to do it.

Okay, we've got to take a break. We'll be right back. All right, let's get right back to the phones. Nine zero one two six zero five nine two six on this election eve. Jeff in Memphis, listening to us on KWAM.

Hi, Jeff. What's on your mind? Good afternoon, Todd. How are you, sir? I'm well.

Thank you for asking, Jeff. Yes, thank you. Just a quick comment. Losing the house at least would not be altogether. Surprising at the midterms, there's historical precedent for that, going all the way back to Roosevelt.

Then you look at Clinton, you look at Barack Obama, the only Republican president that there was not just an overwhelming shift was during Reagan's two terms. But in '66, Lyndon Johnson, he lost. There's a chart that shows this, but So there's historical precedent for the sitting president, president to lose the house, particularly when he's a lame duck. Secondly, Trump's approval rating is is less than soaring. There's another Middle East conflict that drags on; it's unpopular.

There's no end in sight. Another foreign policy cul-de-sac by what Ike would have called industrial military complex, and the economy. Is still somewhat limping along, and quite frankly, I voted Republican since 1980. 70 years old, I've already voted. I voted Republican in this one, with the lone exception of Marsha Blackburn.

Marsha's had 30 years in office. She's elected to the Senate, and I just, I just did not vote for Marsha. Do you mind if I may? I ask you who you did vote for. No, I'm happy to tell you, I voted as a protest vote for David Hatley.

I don't think he's going to get it, but I was not going to vote for for a Democrat because of moral conviction, a biblical world and life view. But I just so many times, honestly, Todd, over the last twenty thirty years, I have voted as the lesser of two evils, not because I was all together excited. By the Republican candidate because they were compelling, cogent, clear. I voted for for moral and biblical principles. And this time, however, I opted just to not pull the lever for Marcia Blair, and I think she's going to get it.

She's not quite as shrill as what Peggy Noonan called Hillary Clinton's attempt to be commanding in a speech. She said, "Nooning said of Hillary, she's like the building superintendent yelling up to the third floor, get your bicycle off the patio, or, or the the." Wow.

So, Marsh is not quite that shrill, but I don't think I don't think Marsh is a commanding candidate. Jeff, we're going to have to leave it there, my friend. Computer is going to cut us off, but I I appreciate you calling in. I'll address some of the things you had to say about the midterms coming up. Dylan, I forgot to tell you what happened over the weekend.

This is kind of shocking. Really, I haven't been kicked out of too many things in life, but that changed over the weekend. What did you do?

So I'm, you know, you know, on the Facebook, and they have the groups, right? The Facebook groups. Ah yeah, and um, I I don't belong to a lot of these groups, but there is one good group for the neighborhood. I I live in a Germantown, Tennessee, which is um, it's a it's a hoity-toity neighborhood community outside of Memphis. It's a suburb, and you know the the group is good.

I I haven't posted in the group in like three years. And normally it's like, oh, I have to tell you about how great the people are at Germantown Pharmacy, or, um, or hey, I'm looking for a good Chinese restaurant. Can you recommend something? And you know, just stuff like this, yeah, just normal stuff.

Well, this Facebook group has like become politicized, and again, I stayed out of it. I've got too much. We handle too much drama on the national radio show. To be bothered with what's happening in Germantown, but a good friend of mine, she's running for school board, and on my personal private page, I just told everybody, "Hey, look, you know, I'm endorsing." Her name is Vicky Gandy, and she's a great realtor. She's a long time conservative, and you know, she's she she lives in Germantown, wants to run for the school board.

I think she'd do a great job. A long-time Republican, very loyal Republican leader, and she's very conservative.

So anyway, there's another woman running, and she's on the PTA, and it's she's she's claims to be a Republican, claims to be a Republican, but she's running as an independent. And so my question is, well, if you're a Republican, why didn't you run in the primary against Vicky Gandy? And but so I I don't know the answer to that question. It's none of my business. I I'm sure she's a very nice person, but the people that are supporting.

Her, this this opponent of Vicky Gandy's, the people that oppose her are just downright evil, just ugly and evil. I mean, they are using that Facebook group to just brutally attack Vicky Gandy, whose only crime is what running for school board. And so my question is, I'm like, it's a freaking school board race, which are very important, mind you, they're very important. But it's like the level of vitriol and hate directed at Vicky Yandy would be like if you're running for president of the United States. And so these guys, and basically they're a bunch of men who control the page.

And I think one of them, his spouse, is on the school board.

So I think there's some bad blood there, or whatever. Know and but anyway, I always it always makes me suspect when I see grown men using a Facebook group to like belittle women. Yeah, what's that all about? What is that? It's weird, man.

Yes, you know what I sense? Jazz hands? Maybe a little bit. Yeah. Small man parts.

I'm just saying. I don't know. So anyway, I'm mindin my own business. I don't. I'm not getting involved in that at all.

So anyway, over the weekend, I was looking. I was actually looking for a good restaurant recommendation, and I realized I had been kicked out of the group. And it was because I supported this this woman for school board, and they kicked me out of the group. I'm like, what? What the heck?

So then it turns out that they're literally they're purging the entire group.

So if you support the school board candidate, then you get booted from the um from the group. How petty can you be? Very pet. That's that's extremely petty. But I'm not surprised.

At the end of the day, it is Germantown, and you know their closet libertards is what they are. And I hate to say that, but I mean, when I moved to Germantown, I didn't realize until I moved there how liberal these people really are. I mean, it's insane. And the problem is they're in denial. They don't realize just how liberal they they they they are.

You don't know you're sick until someone tells you you're sick. There's that doesn't make any sense, but it's just it it totally adds up for what you're saying. There's a lot of juice. There were signs. There's a lot of juice bars, vegan restaurants, and yoga joints.

Yeah, I shouldn't ask for. Started popping up in Germantown. Oh well, and and by the way, so we our good friends Moms for Liberty. They they consider Moms for Liberty the local Moms for Liberty chapter to be like Nazis.

So again, it's another warning. And these people were among the first in America to mask up. We have to wear the masks. We've got to mask the children. That's not even closet liberal anymore.

That's just straight up retarded.

Sorry, just. I'll let you keep it in there.

So it just seems to me. I don't know. I don't know why they have they have something stuck in their craw against my dear friend Vicky Gandhi, who has been a guest on this show. She's a great conservative, and she's the funny thing is she's really running. She, I've got to be careful because they'll twist what I'm saying here.

I know some of these people are listening to the show. And and again, it's a school board race. But you know, she's not. Vicky is actually out there praising her her opponent, to say she's a very nice person. She's been very involved in the PTA and all that kind of stuff.

She's never said an ill word about her opponent.

Meanwhile, her opponent's you know, I guess mob is just ugly. I mean, honestly, I'm surprised that Mister Dandy hasn't invited those gentlemen out into the street to settle this like Ben. I mean, some of the things they're saying about them—that's what needs to happen. Honestly, deliver that message to the bridge of one's nose. A punch to the nose—that's just mean.

Next thing you know, a Botox shop is opening up. Right next door. That's fix the nose problem. Got it.

Well, oh, they have a lot of surgery. Uh, you know, plastic surgery places over in Germantown too. Yep, I should have. I should have moved further out east. Just keep on going, keep on going.

Too many libtards in these in these parts.

So anyway, that's that was my weekend, and just having to deal with some of a lot of this hate mail. Look, let me just say this about about the the national election. I could I could do what all the other talk radio hosts are doing, and it's like make you depressed every day. But again, if everybody gets out to vote. We're going to be okay.

Let me tell you though, the big problem in America. You know who doesn't vote? This is and this is shocking, but it's true. Evangelical Christians don't vote. Also, hunters don't vote.

So if you're a hunter and you like going out and you're you know you're a sportsman, you guys don't vote either.

So when they come and take away your church houses and your guns, don't come complaining to me about it. That's all I'm going to tell you.

Now, look, it's is it possible that tomorrow could be a blue tsunami? Yeah, I guess so. If you people stay home and don't vote, or if there are massive amounts of illegals voting, which again, those twenty thousand votes in California came from Los Angeles. Those those types of numbers impact races and elections. They just do.

So, look, I mean, I'm prepared either way. I'm prepared for for us to have a conversation, a serious conversation, on Wednesday after the elections. The Republicans are either going to get a reprieve or they're not, and you guys get to decide. You know how that all plays out. I am wondering, though, any of you who said early on, "That's it, I'm not voting for these people, I'm done." Have you changed your mind, or do you still stand by your decision?

Curious to hear your thoughts on that. Nine zero one two six zero five nine two six, our number. That's nine zero one two six zero five nine two six. All right, I want to play some audio here. This is a this is Mike Rogers.

Talking about Haley Stevens and this last minute endorsement that she made. Actually, first, let's talk about. Let's. I want to play the Haley Stevens officially endorsing Mike Rogers. Cut number eleven.

My vote for Senate. I am just one vote, as is every Michigander. My vote for Senate is going to be with Mike Rogers, and I will tell you why. Because we have to stand with country. We can't stand with hate.

We can't stand with Hassan Piker. Friend of mine was talking about how education is on the ballot, and it's very true.

Now there's a lot of young people looking at this election. You know, I was a young person once, and we've got to make a choice about who is standing with them. I think that Chuck Schumer is going to become the majority leader. You know, and I think that there are incredible Democrats and incredible activity taking place across this country. I stood with my party, and I was booed off the stage, and you know, it was violently shouted down.

You know, I was up there with other Democrats. Those people who are on that stage with me—they're going to make their choice. The ballot box is still very personal and and private. And today, in a moment of faith, tied to my faith, into this great city. By the way, I'm standing here with a guy named Mike Rogers, and there's another guy named Mike who ran the city of Detroit for 12 years, and a lot of Detroiters voted for him.

And you know, he kind of looks like this guy. And you know what happened with that Mike? You know, he stepped out of his party. He put up his hand for a brief while. He was running for governor.

You know, I don't know everything that's going to happen. You know, and and all I can do is lead with love and integrity. This was a personal and private decision. I woke up this morning and I decided to go to church, and I am here with the person who I am voting for for United States Senate, and that is Mike Rogers. Wow!

There you go.

So, Mike Rogers talking about all of this. Cut number thirteen. To Abdul and his campaign, they're so confident they think they're going to win on Tuesday.

Well, that's the same arrogance that cost him Haley Stevens to to be. What he did is pushed her out of his campaign. Tried to say his voters weren't important, and we've been in this community. We've been talking to these voters for months, and we're having a lot of progress.

So when he did this, this wasn't Haley Stevens making up her mind. This was Abdul being angry and divisive, and. Chasing her into a corner, which I think was really unfortunate. I'm not sure that's where she wanted to be, but when you can't disavow hate the way he cannot disavow it, that's a that's an issue, and I think voters are going to take that under consideration. We feel great where we are today.

All right, there you go, ladies and gentlemen. How about that? How about that? By the way, I'm not sure this could have some blowback. Apparently, El Sayed had one of his largest donation days in the history of the campaign after Haley Stevens did that.

All right, let's sneak in a call here before we go to break and say hello to Tammy in Georgia. W D U N, our great affiliate there. Hi, Tammy. What's going on?

Not a whole lot, Todd. I love your show. Love to listen to it, and just enjoy listening to you every day. Thank you.

I just wanted to kind of weigh in on the voting. I have not voted yet. I will go vote tomorrow. I'm a staunch go vote the day of voting person. But I know that there's a lot of people out there who kind of feel like me.

You want to just hold your nose and just. Go vote as best you can. Your choices this year are freedom versus communism, socialism. To me, there's no choice. Doesn't matter if I like the Republican candidates or I don't, but the alternative is much worse.

So I do want to say, if you haven't voted, get out and vote. If you're legal, I'm big on that.

So, just kind of wanted to weigh in on: if you have to hold your nose, go to the polls. Hold your nose, go to the polls, and vote. It is important.

Well said, Tammy. A well said, and again, that's that's what a lot of people are going to have to do, and that's okay as long as we get these Republicans across the finish line, and we can deal with them and their betrayal of the voters. We can deal with that later, but right now we've got to stop. We've got to stop the socialists dead in their tracks, and we've also got to protect President Trump. and And Tammy, for me, that is a big part of this: is protecting President Trump.

A hundred percent. I totally agree with you. All right. I'm sorry. Go ahead, Tammy.

No, I was just going to say thanks so much, and you have a great day, Tammy. You too. Happy voting. Proud to hear that you're doing that tomorrow. And ladies and gentlemen, we've got to take a quick break.

This is the Tom Stern Show. All right. Let's go to Gary in Oregon. Gary, what's on your mind today?

Well, mostly the polls. We went out door knocking here south of Portland on Saturday. We covered about 500 people, Republicans only that very rarely vote and that had not voted yet. And we went to 500 doors. We probably hit about a hundred of them, and we could hardly find anybody who hasn't voted yet.

And we're a we're a mail in vote only state, so I think that they don't really realize how many Republicans are actually voting. I think they're way underestimating. I certainly understand they are here in Oregon, and we're the our state has a chance to vote for a pro life Christian instead of the lesbian we have now. Gary, I'm I'm wondering as you were polling folks, any any takeaways from that. Yeah, they're very excited.

They they they are very excited about voting for Christine Drazan, who's the new who's the governor, and they're very tired of the forty years of taxes and nonsense. and And really, it's the excessive gas tax and stuff like that that people are really really upset with. We just had a A refusal of the gas tax that went eighty five fifteen, which means a lot of Democrats were voting against it too.

Well, that's interesting. I, you know, you wonder at what point do people get tired and say enough is enough.

Well, Oregon's not as as blue as most people think. We only have four million people living in over a hundred thousand square miles. It's not like Washington and California.

So there are a lot of conservatives here. It's just that Antifa and everything keeps us bottled up. No, I remember when I came out for an event we did with our affiliate there, KYKN in Salem. I was really impressed with the numbers of of Republicans who showed up, conservatives and and really the caliber of of conservatives. I mean, it seems like you guys and you have to, I guess, be of hearty stock to be a conservative these days in that part of the country.

Well, we feel kind of blessed, you know, especially the Christian here. That it is one of the most unchurched, one of the darkest places. In the world, and we have a chance to share the light that shines brighter than anywhere else because it is so dark. Wow! Well, Gary, I appreciate the the intel.

what's your What's your prediction for tomorrow in Oregon? I think the well, I'm I'm almost positive the governor is going to be changed. They voted early, and the fact that we we went to so many people and we barely found one or two people, we were finding people that vote one in four years, one in two in four years, and they had already voted, which means they only vote presidential, and they voted for this one. Wow.

Well, Gary, I appreciate you calling in. Give us a holler back tomorrow. We'd love to hear how things are going out in Oregon, and we appreciate you listening to our great affiliate there, KYKN. That's Gary in Oregon. Pulled five hundred folks.

Wow, that's huge, huge.

So, look, tomorrow it's going to be a busy day here on the show, and Wednesday as well. We're going to bring you the best, the best political analysis. I can tell you that, and also real time information. That's coming out as millions of Americans head out and vote tomorrow. We're expecting nearly historic turnout, and we want to hear from you.

We're going to be providing coverage across all of our platforms well into the night. We'll be up and at it until the very last vote is counted and announced.

So, very excited about tomorrow. You have a job, and that job is to get out and vote. If you got neighbors, if you got friends, if you go to Church was somebody. Bring them along with you. Get out the vote.

Let's save America, ladies and gentlemen, and we can do it. All right, get out there, folks. Have a great rest of your day. ToddSteurns. dot com.
