Transcript

Speaker 1

Portions of the Bill Cunningham Show may be pre recorded.

Speaker 2

Willie Brough You by Choice Hotels, Econo Lodge and Roadway in Hotels are serving up double points.

Speaker 1

We're overqualifying. Stay book at Choice Hotels dot com. Now here's the man who's been recognized as radio's best, the recipient of not one but two prestigious Marconi Awards for his broadcast exodence, the one and only Bill Cunningham.

Speaker 3

All right, Billy Cunningham, the great American. Great to have you with me this Sunday evening.

Speaker 4

Once again.

Speaker 3

We said a week ago that it appeared there was going to be attack on Israel any moment. And look at my right, my left, looking straight ahead, the same thing being said now that Israel is preparing for an attack from Hesbla in the north and a moss possibly in the south. What little they have left then he ran,

or whatever else. Extremist Islamic groups are at play. And I had a discussion this afternoon with a good friend of mine of the Jewish faith, and he told me that he's never seen a time like this in this country. And I said, well, then to agree with it. He said, he's sending his daughter back to an Eastern school for her third year at an Ivy League school, supposed to arrive in about a week or ten days, and she fears for her safety, and he fears for her safety.

That maybe the best gift to give to a Jew going to a college in America is either a combat helmet or maybe a flak jacket. Make ideal bar and bet and misfa gifts for Jews in America going to a college dominated by liberal leftism and progressivism, socialism and communism.

That's what's mistaken thing. And it's no exaggeration. I think that this election could determine the fate of Jews in the US and Israel, which forever, which has together about eighty five percent of Jewish population, is either in Israel or in America. The rest of the world largely has gotten rid of the Jews by on one method or another, simply the way things are. So, I said to this father, I think I could not conceive of America living like

this with a leader about to be elected. We think Kamala Harris, maybe probably possibly, who has the most anti Israel pro Palestinian voting record in the United States Senate, more to the left of Bernie Sanders, not much room out there, Elizabeth Warren, not much room out there. Anti Semitic incidents in America is up about one hundred and

forty percent since twenty twenty two. And then the former leader of Harvard, supposedly one of the great colleges the world, when ask if you call for genocide, does that violate the Harvard's code of conduct? Then President Clyding Gay said it would quote depend on the context. I can only anticipate that if somebody would say, well, if there's a ku Klux Klan rally at Harvard, wouldout violate the code of misconduct for students?

Speaker 4

In what's the context?

Speaker 3

There is no good context, And get ready for the next week or ten days. It's going to be wild unbelievable. Since coming to office, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris has showered riches upon Iran, the head of the Snake, primarily by easing sanctions on oil exports and also simply gifting them billions of dollars. Under President Donald Trump, Iran's oil production was down to about two hundred thousand barrels a day.

Now it's over two million barrels a day. Amas and HEZBLA are very grateful for the policies of Joe Biden Kamala Harris because it is incentive by them to destroy Israel stand back from this, and as you know, the great American was there in May of last year, and I found a functioning, participatory Western democracy with freedoms that are being recognized. Not about twenty five percent of the Kanesset are Muslim Arabs who are given every right imaginable.

There was a Catholic church I could go to. There were mosques, there were synagogues. There was an open Western society functional right now not so sure. There's about one hundred thousand Jews that have left the northern part of Israel to go south to live with family and friends. The Israeli economy is dependent upon three items. One is tourism, which is now dead. Secondly agriculture which is now dead.

Thirdly high tech industries that are now hurting. So Israel financially is nearest state to collapse because they cannot put up with this much longer. It's been now what about ten months since the attack on October the seventh, That is the greatest Israeli or Jewish loss of life since

the Holocaust and one event and now they're winning. They really would win if Kamala Harris would take over the presidency and do what she wants to do to support Iran and make sure that they have the money necessary to ferment terror all over the world.

Speaker 4

And many haven't figured it out yet.

Speaker 3

Speaking in twenty fifteen out of Los Angeles mosque, Kamala Harris, who was then the California Attorney General, said we must find courage to never say quote radical Islamic terror again. There is no jihad quote unquote that came from the lips of Kamala Harris about eight or nine years ago. There is no jihad. There is no Islamic terror that would shock the men and women who died on nine to eleven. Plus there's been millions who have been killed

over the past fifty years. Some two hundred thousand separate Islamic terror of tax have taken place all over the world.

It is really unbelievable. And when it came to picking a running mate, Kamala Harris ignored the best choice and the obvious choice that would be Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, who is Jewish, And this was a plot by not picking the jew by progressive Democrats and even CNN senior political commentator Van Jones said that his party has an anti Jewish bias, that anti Semitism has gotten marbled into the Democratic Party quote unquote unbelievable. And you're telling me

she's leading in the polls. I don't believe it. Jews need to understand.

Speaker 4

The news is.

Speaker 3

Tightening, and yes, it can happen here. The yellow Star of David is being warned by some as a protest, by others as a matter of pride. And when you look at how close the world was to peace with the Abraham Accords, is shocking to see at this point about seventy percent of Jewish Americans vote for Democrats who seek many the destruction of Israel. Maybe possibly in New York State, I saw a poll about a week ago that in New York State, Kamala Harris only had fifty

percent of the Jewish vote. Maybe the long dormant Jewish survival instinct may have awoken. This is Siena pol Let's hope the trend continues. This is a clash between civilization and barbaric misbehavior. Look at the Tailor Swift concert that was cancered in Vienna about three or four days ago. Islamic terror is on the march, and the funder of

Islamic terror is largely Iran. And but for the policies of Biden and Harris, Iran would not have the money to do what it's doing, including killing many Americans all over the world. So put that in your pipe and smoke it. Secondly, of full lines, of course, got to get to him. Secondly, I'm watching this morning Robert Acosta of CBS News, and he had to sit down with President Joe Biden in and around the UH the White House and the and the Presidential suite where many famous

events had taken place, the private quarters. And I'm sure that Robert Acosta was was mindful of the fact that you can't be too tough on Joe Biden, otherwise you don't get any more interviews. So I understand that. But two lies told by Joe Biden not called in real time by Robert Acosta. The first one is the tiki

torches in Charlottesville. That lie has circled the globe before truth could take his first step, blaming Donald Trump for saying there's good people on both sides uh Politi, Fact Snopes, the Washington Post have all said he was referring to those who wanted to tear down the Confederate monuments and those who wanted to keep them up. In context, that's what Donald Trump meant, that the Charlottesville, the tiki torches, those races, Nazis marching around despicably saying the Jews will

not replaced us. They got the right to say that. I guess I got the right to call them out on it. But the Trumpster was referring to the to the monuments, to the statues. And there are good people on both sides who say statues of George Washington or Robert E. Lee should be up or should be down, you know, Washington and Lee University, for example. And that's arguable. What is not arguable is in context, he was not praising the Nazi sympathizers. That is not in context, and

that is wrong. So Joe Biden says to Robert Acosta, the reason I ran for the presidency in twenty twenty or the comments made by Donald Trump praising neo Nazis. So if that's true, if Donald if Joe Biden really believes he's speaking the truth, when it's a lie, his whole campaign then is based upon a lie.

Speaker 4

It didn't happen.

Speaker 3

In fact, Donald Trump is the only president of American history with Jewish grandchildren. He was not praising neo Nazis. He was not praising the murderers of Heather Higher. He was talking about, and this is confirmed by independent sources, including liberal ones. He was referring to the monuments torn down by some on college campuses Washington and Lee and Robert E. Lee, Jefferson, whatever it might be, as slave owners.

And that's arguable because, let's face in almost all those individuals were Democrats anyway, they were democratic monuments being torn down by left wing socialists. So if the entire campaign of Joe Biden was based upon Donald Trump's comments about Charlottesville, his whole campaign then is based upon a lie. But of course Robert Acosta did not call him out in

real time. And the second thing that Robert Acosta of CBS News let's slide was the comment Joe Biden made this morning that Donald Trump said a few months ago, there's going to be a bloodbath if he loses. In context, Trump said to the auto workers that because of the push by Kamala Harris on evs that if we continue on the path were on with EV production, that's going to cost the UAW many jobs and that'll be an economic bloodbath for you. It wasn't a bloodbath if he

loses the election. It was a blood bath for the autoworkers. In real time. Robert Acosta didn't have the guts. He didn't have the guts to call out Joe Biden on those two lies he told, and later in the piece it did reference the fact that Joe Biden might have been mistaken, but in context, he didn't do it. So you're fighting, in this case, a campaign in which the media, this so called legacy media, will not cover facts independently on which you can cast an informed ballot. It's simply

not going to happen. And for those who say, well this is the honeymoon period, o contrere monfrere to use a little bit of French, Jija parafant saying, puh, I would say this, that she will get away with it.

Speaker 4

This is what's going to happen. And mark my words.

Speaker 3

By a week from tomorrow, the Democratic National Convention will kick off in Chicago, and.

Speaker 4

All the media there will be wine, dined.

Speaker 3

In pocket lined by the Democrats, Wolf Blitzer, maybe doing the macarena again. So there'll be no media opportunities for the next week, and then for the week of the Democratic National Convention there will not be media opportunities then either, she said, by the end of the month, she may do an interview, but.

Speaker 4

Why should she.

Speaker 3

The more she shuts her mouth, the better she does, because the more she flips, she forgets the flops. She knew what she said at one point, now she doesn't know what she's saying at this point. So what will happen sometime by the end of the month, show contact maybe Robert Acosta or maybe Morning Joe is Zeka Brazinski or Joe Scarborough and do like a quote national media interview with MSNBC. That'll be it, and then the debate will take place on September tenth, and then that'll be

the last debate. Whichever thank you, thank you, Kamala, whichever candidate wins the debate, we'll say, well, we've had a debate. Now it's time to campaign. There'll be no second or third debate. So can they keep hiding and run the

clock out? Absolutely? Could Republicans do this absolutely not. You see Jade Vance, who lives about two miles from where I broadcast from in Cincinnati, and Donald Trump thither and fro doing a whole bunch of news conferences and media avails, attacked by the media, and the media will allign Kamala Harris and Governor Waltz to hide because that's part of

their game plan. I've received many emails from military types talking about the former military superior speaks out against Governor Waltz and because he lied at one point, they were ready. He knew before he took retirement that his battalion was heading toward heading toward a rock. He didn't want to go. He wanted to get into politics. He said he had the right to retire after twenty years. But the way

it was done calls in to question his patriotism. And they changed websites to note the rank he did not attain that he used for a long period of time and them carrying weapons of war is not the case. But he lied in the media will let him lie. In fact, now if it's brought up by Republicans, they're attacked by the media, which is unbelievable. Right now, we need to hear from Kamala Harris and Tim Walltz, it

will not occur. The best thing you can say about the governor is that when the riots took place in Minneapolis, as they get started after the George Floyd killing, I won't call it a murderer.

Speaker 4

I'll call it a killing.

Speaker 3

The governor had an opportunity quickly to crack down early on to stop the riots from getting out of out

of hand, which they did. He was concerned about the racial makeup of the National Guard, and he also would be pointed out that is the first Lady of Minnesota opened the windows of the governor mansion so she could smell the aroma of burning tires and the sense of freedom that somehow smelling hundreds of businesses burning and the tires being burnt gave her a sense of happiness that America is being punished for the kind of country she perceives that we have. And his refusal to call it

the National Guard is he abandoned. He abandoned his troops in a rock, he abandoned his duties the National Guard card when the bullets began flying and the businesses were burned, and then Kamala Harris put up money to the bail fund.

During the bail alm the riots, as the governor let Minneapolis burn, she raised about thirty eight million dollars and she put up something called quote if you're able to chip in now to the m N Freedom Fund to help post bail for those protesting on the ground in Minnesota. That's from Kamala Harris. There were no protesters arrested. The only people arrested in Minnesota were arsonists, murtyerers, rapists, robbers, and thieves. You don't get arrested in Minneapolis, for God's sakes,

for protesting, you commit serious felonies. And she raised directly and indirectly about thirty eight million dollars to get those individuals out of jail. And many committed other murders, robberies, rapes when they were out. So the governor permitted the writing to continue. And when the felons were arrested, Kamala Harris put up the money to get them out. How much media coverages of that, I would say very little or none. So can they run out the clock? Absolutely?

Will they run out the clock? Yes, if they're winning, if the polls are truthful, which I find it hard to believe, they can run it out on every issue that's important to the American people. That Donald has a big lead on many, many of the issues upon which the American people want to cast an informed ballot.

Speaker 4

Right.

Speaker 3

If you ask the American people who do you trust on the economy, by a wide margin, it is Donald Trump. If you ask the American people, who do you trust on creating more jobs? American people say Donald Trump. And if you ask the American people who do you trust on immigration inflation? It's all Donald Trump. Let's continue. We have thousands on hold. Take some calls on the other side. We have calls from Missouri and Tampa and Oklahoma, many places in between. Eight six six six four seven seven

three three of them. Bill Cunningham, to the great American, with you and all other great Americans every Sunday night, Seekamala Harris wakes up every morning hiding from you who she truly is, because if you knew what she intended on doing, if she wins the presidency with Governor Tim Waltz, she wouldn't vote for her. But you have to get

up every day to be someone else. I wrote down some of the phrases she employed in one of her rallies a couple of nights ago, to the cheers of multitudes, quote, we worry about kitchen table issues.

Speaker 5

Yay.

Speaker 3

She then says we must lower the cost of groceries in gasoline. Yay, the crowd responded. She then says we believe in middle class values.

Speaker 4

Yay, we like that.

Speaker 3

Then she says we need more high pain union jobs. Unions built this country. Yay, we need that too. Where are the policies that implement things such as lowering the cost of groceries and gasoline and building out the middle class? Where are the actual policies? Guess what? They don't exist. Every day she gets up trying to hide from you the truth, and guess what she thinks you can handle the truth.

Speaker 4

Well, tonight you get the truth.

Speaker 3

Bill cunning In the Great American with you and all of the great Americans every Sunday night.

Speaker 5

Yay, all.

Speaker 3

I got to get to some telephone calls tonight, just reporting tonight that Barack Hussein Obama is in charge of the Kamala Harris CAMPI, that she's off the campaign trail for a while to go back to San Francisco's to a city she helped to ruin completely and Obama's third and fourth and fifth term may becoming. Imagine, if things go the wrong way in November, end up with Kamala Harris and Tim Waltz, for God's sakes, for eight years.

That's going to mean between now and twenty thirty two, we're going to have a period of time between twenty eight and twenty thirty two, what twenty four years? And of those twenty four years it would have been extreme leftist, socialist progressive government in charge for about seventy five to eighty percent of that time. We can't survive as a nation. And so as soon as Obama was elected through Joe

Biden's campaign, it was simply Obama. He suddenly became a leftist with hyper radical ideas that lunchbucket Joe from Scranton, Pennsylvania, the old Joe Biden found quite unacceptable. But with Barack Husein Obama manipulating him and now manipulating Kamala Harris, guess what extremely successful. And we did not vote, as you

may know, for spread the wealth. We didn't vote for socialism over communism, we didn't vote for high taxes, we didn't vote for gasoline at three, four or five dollars a gallon when we put Biden in charge the regime.

Speaker 4

We didn't vote for big government.

Speaker 3

We didn't vote for fifteen to twenty million illegals coming into this country. We didn't vote for soft on crime policies destroying our major cities. We didn't vote for DEI principles that Joe Biden put in practice with an executive order the first day he took office.

Speaker 4

No one voted.

Speaker 3

No one I know voted for borrowing seven eight trillion dollars. No one I know voted to wage war on fossil fuels to make sure you pay more money, which hyperincentivized high inflation that we have. And no one wanted to abandon fifty to eighty billion dollars in high tech at military equipment in Afghanistan. No one wanted to do any of that stuff. We didn't want to have. America can face wars directly or indirectly in Ukraine and now in Gaza in Israel, all of which were very peaceful when

Trump was in office. We didn't vote for any of that stuff. So now they have to act as if they're moderates. They have to forget about their policies and each of these candidates, Kamala Harris and Tim Watz are both sixty years old. In fact, put together, they're older than Trump and Vance. Did you know that they are? They have well known policies of left wing socialism, boarding on communism, And we didn't vote any We didn't vote for a fifth grade boy to go into a grade

school bathroom and see a tampon machine. That's Tim Waltz. We didn't vote for that. We didn't vote for reparations,

didn't vote for any of that stuff. So all of a sudden, the policies well known of these two candidates on the Democratic side get up every day to have to hide and secrete from you reality from the previous policies that once they get in Katie bar the door, they will revert to water level and do all the things we don't want, no question about it, and the media will be there as lap dogs, like Robert Acosta was this morning on CBS Morning News. Let's go to

the telephone calls. We have thousands on old, millions are listening. I want to set up a little bit of what's going to happen tonight later on have Christopher Ruddy will be here of Newsmax. Also later on, as Eric drew Ark, you said earlier today that it was said that we need to deport about one million or so illegals, the criminals that are here. Very popular idea, by the way, about seventy percent of us say absolutely. Then also later on is the policies of Kamala Harris when it comes

through reparations based upon race. And also maybe you get a call in from Leland Vindtert of News Nation under the auspices, of course of Sean Compton. Let's continue with Mark and Missouri than thousands of others. Mark and Missouri, Welcome to the Bill Cunningham Show. And Mark, how are you.

Speaker 6

Well?

Speaker 7

I'd like to say I'm doing fine, but I am scared. I like to remain optimistic, but I am really scared if this Commy Harris and tamped Tim gettingwhere near that over office. You're right, it's over. I don't ever like to give up, and I won't give up. But they aren't borderline communists. I mean this Tim, Tim we makes Bernie Sanders are normal. I mean what they would do to this country, how they would get rolled by China.

And actually was wouldn't mind that he's had so much connection with China, and it's just.

Speaker 4

Thirty thirty trips. Scared that thirty trips.

Speaker 3

We have the most left wing progressive governor in the history of the country, along with the most liberal member of the US Senate, acting as if they're moderates until they get in no office, like Joe Biden was lunchbucket Joe, and suddenly he became a marching Marxist.

Speaker 4

And if the same thing's going to happen in January, if these two.

Speaker 7

Win, and the fact that they have ten percent is scary? Are there really that many people uninformed? It's just it is scary Now I think I think you're right. Kammie Harris is going to do the ropidope and she's going to try to do what Biden did. Sure, but there is a difference. There is a record, and this is up to the Trump campaign and President Trump and Jadi Vance. They have got to obliterate her and that record and then compare it to President Trump's record. That's the only

way the Americans are going to find out. Most people don't pay close attention until it gets close to the election, but they have got a responsibility. If she's not going to come out and do interviews. No, they have got just to a literator, and that's that's it can be done. It's I even think the Republicans can win on abortion. It's going to be abortion wall to wall comes September. But they can run ads with HD pictures of fully formed children in the womb and say the Democrats want

to kill these babies. No, they aren't safe, legal and rare. They want to kill as many babies as possible.

Speaker 4

And Martin answer this question.

Speaker 3

I went on a website Health and Human Services and it said that pregnant people. I'm a little bit defended by the term pregnant people. It diminishes the roles of mothers. But let's use their term. Pregnant people when they're pregnant should begin prenatal care between the sixth and the tenth week of pregnancy. So, assuming the government is telling pregnant people to begin prenatal care at the sixth to ten week mark, does the government acknowledge therefore that is a baby?

Because you don't give prenatal care to assist or to a growth, or to a callous You give prenatal care to what a baby? So how can the government on one hand said you got to begin prenatal care by the tenth week. But on the other hand, you can kill an unborn baby up to the fortieth week.

Speaker 4

Is that consistent?

Speaker 7

Oh, Bill, you're just doing in facts.

Speaker 4

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry all the time.

Speaker 7

I mean, President Trump has said that he will not doing a national ban on abortion. Well they're running heads saying he is. It was one, so it doesn't matter what he says, and somehow they're going to have to get on offense about this. But the main reason I sold a screen what I called was I'm actually I congratulate you for predicting Biden would drop out.

Speaker 4

I think he would.

Speaker 7

But we're supposed to believe that a guy less than four years later, who is pushed out, who was in thirty percent of aproval rate most of the time, got by far the most votes in history of any candidate four years ago when he didn't campaign, and when he did he was a disaster every time, and we're suppos believe there's nothing wrong. Well, I have no doubt that these Democrats are going to fast seal this one too,

and they are. I mean, why do we think we have fifteen to twenty million illegals here they're signing up. This is going a long term goal of the Democrats. Rush, you should talk about this. They want to make elections irrelevant and anything other than the same day voting with paper ballots and some absentee is Democrats cheating. Want to

try to steal elections. Clinton passed voter voter way back in ninety two with of course Hillary's behind that, and it slowly progressed to where we are now, to our voting system. They destroy that as well, and it's just it's scary.

Speaker 3

I hope I put this in the hands of God. Every now and then I say the prayer of Saint Michael, in which it ends up by saying that there's the devil, Satan is searching the earth for souls to destroy. And I would add to that human lives to kill. And the government cannot tell us that at six to ten weeks a mother must have pre natal care, but then on the other hand, you can kill the baby. And that's what the Democrat that's what the Democrats tell us.

And I'm thinking one other thing. Some of the things she has said, such as getting rid of all private health insurance get in line medicaid. Medicaid with all the illegal aliens getting all the care they can get, get in line with them. She also believes in reparations for African Americans. I got a guest coming on later to address that issue. Reparations. How popular do you think are reparations among the American people? Money paid out based upon race?

And how popular do you think is the idea of getting rid of private insurance and everyone dumped into a public system. And she said about three years ago that illegal aliens should have the right to vote. And so you put all that together, you talk about an important election. Mark my gosh, it's November fifth, and the election starts in about five weeks.

Speaker 4

In Pennsylvania.

Speaker 3

They start having drop boxes and mailing out ballots in about five weeks.

Speaker 7

Well, socialized anything has never worked. It's been a disaster everywhere. I don't know why more people can't see this looking great written Look in Canada, it's a disaster.

Speaker 4

Venezuela, she exactly.

Speaker 7

And that's what that's an example of Venzuela and Brazil. Those guys sol elections there and both countries, especially Venzuela is just a disaster. He used to be a thriving country, but now never recover they went. But Kamala even opposes private charity. I mean, she's I've never seen anything like these two people in office. I mean, it's scary to get to the point where election could mean the end of the country. I mean we've had bad presidents obviously, yeah, but this could.

Speaker 4

I mean, well, if we have another bad president.

Speaker 3

If we had Obama that eight years of disaster, then we had an interlude of four years of Trump when he was sued, impeached, subpoenas, the illegal wires, eavesdropping, whatever it is, they couldn't do what he wanted to do. Then let's say we go four years of Biden, then eight years of Kamala, Harris and Tim Waltz. That that

means we're done. That means twenty That means twenty four of twenty eight years are going to be left ing, progressive social Remember what Obama said, we have to fundamentally transform this country from what to what? And guess what it's happening as I speak. Thank you for your call. Let's continue now with thousands of others. The line becomes available five one, If line becomes available eight six six six four seven seven three three seven, it's right here.

Five six years ago, Senator Kamala Harris said that illegal should have the right to vote, whether the citizens or not. Just give them a paper ballot and I'll next Sunday and I'm scheduled to have on Wayne down and route. He'll tell you the way it works in Nevada, and that is when you get a driver's license, don't have to prove your citizen. You get a driver's license, you automatically get in the mail about a month before the election a paper ballot to vote, and he'll tell you.

He'll tell us next Sunday that that has opened up the floodgates to illegal voting in Nevada. If you're from Nicaragua or El Salvador of Venezuela or the Congo, and you have a driver's license issued by the state of Nevada, and on official letterhead you are given a ballot to vote, there must be the implication, if not the expression, that

is legal for you to vote. And those ballots are passed around, mimeographed off and away we go, and they're all dumped and dropped by boxes that are being unsupervised, and then they're counted. How do you beat that damn near impossible? And I love the radical left in the media talking about, well, go ahead and try to prove it.

By the time you can prove it, it would be uh, not ripe because the secretor of State didn't declare a winner by the time the winner is declared in December of that state's electors, then the issue is moot because you don't have time to have a trial. So on one hand, it's not ripe because we know whe's declared

a winner. How do you know if that vote counts or not that by the time you announce the winner of the state in December and the electors get together in state capital vote, federal judges said, we don't have time in the next five weeks to conduct a four blown federal civil trial. Don't have the time for depositions, of cross examination, production of documents all the time, and so it is a recipe for absolute disaster. Three or four states that have it right are Florida, Ohio, in Iowa.

Those three states. In fact, Trump became the only president Republican president in American history to win Iowa, Ohio, and Florida and still easily lose the election, and I would say this before I continue with calls.

Speaker 4

I don't think they're done with this guy yet.

Speaker 3

We have about eighty five days to the election, but their election starts in about five or six weeks when the ballots are being mailed out. There's a deep state ready to get him. The swamp is ready to get him. There's a federal judge named Chunkin in Washington, d C. That wants to get him. There's a state court judge in New York that wants to get him. There's forces

out there from Iran who wants to kill him. You may know from the Secret Service they're aware of Iranian death squads who will kill themselves in the process, who wants to assassinate Donald Trump by any means necessary. They want to keep the policies of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, and they know their survivability of their lousy moulahs in Tehran is based upon the idea that Kamala Harris will continue and then will begin the obliteration of Israel, which

by the way, is well underway as I speak. One of the news meting outlets said there's eighteen missiles this evening sent into northern Israel. I don't know if that's to start of something bigger.

Speaker 4

I don't know.

Speaker 3

By simply waiting and having the policies of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, that is sown within the seeds of that decision, the absolute destruction of the nation of Israel and the seven or eight million Jews that live there

in peace and all they want is peace. Then Hamas will put its control and command centers under schools, orphanages, and hospitals, then blame the Jews for their placing those facilities and vulnerable positions, so they get some press and publicity out of a missile that takes out control and command positions of a mass inside of a school. Let's continue.

The line becomes available, but she never does. Eight sixty six, six, four seven, seven, three three seven Coming up later as Christopher Ruddy of NEWSMAX and Eric Ruard of Numbers USA and more. Bill Cunningham with you every Sunday night. Imagine the policies of Joe Biden on steroids the next four to eight years. Can we survive another fifty to eighty million coming into the country illegally? Can we survive with doubling of energy prices. You think they're high, now not

even close. Can we survive without private medical insurance for people who can afford to pay it through your employer? She wants to get rid of all that. I think we need reparations based upon skin color. I don't think so. Do we need more inflation right now? Inflation's tending toward four percent. When Trump left off, it was one point four percent a year and a half into the Inflation and Reduction Act. Now there's a great name, got up to nine percent. Having just the opposite of what the

name said it would occur. And so in every issue is important to us normal Americans, whether it's energy or jobs, or the price of groceries, the economy, inflation, immigration, homelessness, Trump is right in all the issues. How many red cities in red states have homeless difficulties?

Speaker 4

The answer is.

Speaker 3

None, because police ought to enforce the law. If you want to have your taxes go up, if you want to get rid of your insurance carrier through your employer, if you want to higher energy and gasoline and diesel prices, I can't imagine I have thousands of truckers listening to me every Sunday night and I think ninety percent are going to vote for Donald Trump on that issue and

that issue alone, you have a chance. We have a choice, and this is the most stark choice I think since Richard Nixon ran against against the liberal from George McGovern and I think Nixon won forty nine states. Now in today's world because of the media coverage. If the media covered Obama, Biden, Kamala Harris, Tim Waltz objectively as if they were Republicans, none of those characters would have been elected. But they don't cover it that way, and they're not

going to change. The Robert Acosta interview this morning on CBS Sunday morning was ridiculous. He was in the White House with Joe Biden who simply lied repeatedly in real time against Donald Trump, and the Costa knew he was lying and didn't correct him in real time because it didn't fit. You know, all the news that fits they print. If the news doesn't fit the agenda, they don't print it. Let's continue with more come up after the top of they are with Christopher Ruddy will be here from Newsmax

later on as Leland vinter of News Nation. And also, what about the comments of jd Vance wants to deport one million criminal aliens.

Speaker 4

Popular with the American people.

Speaker 3

I got Eric Ruar coming up from Numbers USA and more, Bill Cunning and the Great American with you every Sunday.

Speaker 2

Night, Willie Brock.

Speaker 1

You by Choice Hotels, Econo Lodge and Roadway In Hotels are serving up double points for every qualifying stay book at Choice Hotels dot com. Now here's the man who's been recognized as radio's best, the recipient of not one but two prestigious Marconi Awards for his broadcast exodence, the one and only Bill Cunninghead.

Speaker 3

Bill Cunning in the Great em And of course we know the Newsmax is one of the screensavers I have. The Drudge Report has completely lost its way. I have no idea what's happened to the Drudge Report. But if I want conservative thinking and viewpoints, Newsmax is there. And sometime soon, maybe next year, they're going to offer an IPO you can invest in Newsmax. It's going to be later this year or early next year. But until then, Christopher Ruddy is the CEO and founder, the man at

newsmax dot com, et cetera. And Christopher Welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show, and Christopher Ruddy.

Speaker 4

Let me ask you a basic question. Are you prepared?

Speaker 8

Am I prepared for what?

Speaker 6

Bill?

Speaker 4

Here's the question this show. Yes, are you prepared?

Speaker 8

Well, I'm always I'm never fully prepared for you because you are beyond in terms of the journalistic style, and so you always bring something in that I haven't thought of. So you creative and innovative.

Speaker 4

Well, thank you. But here's my question.

Speaker 3

When I look at the polling of our friend and yours, Donald John Trump, when it comes to jobs, creation of new jobs by the American people, he's up about twenty points over Kamala Harris. When it comes to the economy, he's way up. American people say he's better for jobs, better for the economy. How about energy, Donald Trump is way up in that talk about inflation, curing inflation, not more inflation, but less. He's way up on Kamala Harris

on inflation, immigration, not even close two to one. And so when I look at the main indicators of who gets elected who doesn't get elected on the important issues jobs, the economy, energy, inflation, all those issues, and he's at the top of the list.

Speaker 4

And Kamala is way down.

Speaker 3

If all that is true, how come the race supposedly is like tied today when our guy, Donald Trump on the big issues, have a wide advantage over Kamala Harris.

Speaker 4

Can you answer that big question?

Speaker 8

Yeah, I think I know the answer, and the answer is the big bad media they don't give this guy up. I mean, think about him just being shot and how they know. There's some of the met who are saying, well, he calls it. You know, it's just like unbelievable to spin against this man. And so even though the American people know he's got a really good track record as president.

And I don't know if you're referring to the CNBC poll that's out, it shows that he's two points ahead, right, But in the CNBC poll, which is amazing, and I think you're referring to some of this data, is that by a margin of two to one, two to one, So that's like almost seventy percent of Americans think he's better for the economy and their personal finances than Kamala Harris. So that's amazing, right, Well, how can guy be almost seventy percent of the public he's good for me financially?

But most people are Many people are saying they're voting for her. It doesn't make any sense other than the meat that constantly tries to attack the poor guy and he's fighting back. Look at the end of the day, I think people are going to realize, they're going to look what Kamala with the Harris Biden ticket did the Biden Harris presidency, and what the Trump presidents he did. Cam's down, he wins on farm posse. I mean, we're facing bill world War three all over the world, China,

for Ria, Iran, Ukraine. I mean, this is the roof on fire. And it's all because he's not president. So I think that the public is turning on her, They're turning on Biden, and I think we're going to see the president will win this snub effort.

Speaker 3

You know, Christopher Ruddy of Newsmax one poll that came out that I attached some significance to about a month ago, and that is and I don't know, polling is a snapshot in time. If Poles controlled things, Trump never would have been elected in twenty sixteen. I don't think it was up in any poll, and he won somewhat easily, but nonetheless there was a poll out about a month ago.

I think it was from Reuters that said if an American who spends their time were getting news only from the mainstream media ABC, NBC, and CBS, throw in PBS and reading the headlines of newspapers, that group of Americans, which is a large chunk of US, favored at that point Joe Biden fifty five to thirty five. In other words, you and I know we're kind of connected to the news. When you found a Newsmax, it was a little operation. Now it's a behemoth. And I've been in this business

now for forty one years. I can't believe I'm still I can't believe I got forty one years under my belt with another forty one years to go. But nonetheless, there's a chunk of Americans like my producer Tony Bender, who doesn't pay much attention to the media, gets up every morning, goes to work, lunchbox in hand, his wife's

caring for the three or four kids. He doesn't watch the evening news, doesn't watch the eleven o'clock news, doesn't read a lot of newspapers that basically don't exist except the Wall Street Journal, New York Times.

Speaker 4

They don't exist anymore.

Speaker 3

And he lives his life, but then he votes, and so he's thinking, you know, every now and then I'll check in to see what's going on, and they say, hey, Trump was shot, Oh my god. Then within two days it's ignored. So if an American only gets their news some so called mainstream media, they believe in the democratic viewpoint, that is all they hear about the Democratic They don't hear about Tim Waltz's socialism or Kamala Harris saying get rid of your private health insurance but throw everybody in

the Medicare Medicaid system. Is that a problem when we have uninformed Americans like my producer Tony Bender, who simply lives his life.

Speaker 8

Well, one of the things I love about you, Bill is you have informed opinion. Like you started this conversation talking about the polling data. Now you're talking about a Reuter survey. You're backing up your stuff, your opinions, which really and that's why you're a radio legend. And I'm not just saying that to puff smoke in the air in front of you. But Reuters also did a study that came out in June that they surveyed forty seven countries.

They found that they're only top ten twelve brands that Americans are turning to regularly for news. Liberal legacy media except for Newsmax made the list. We were on that top twelve, which is amazing and it's a breakthrough. But you know what, there should be five or six conservative leaning and you look at the other data that comes out trust in the media. Gallup does a study, look it up online every year and it's the lowest support

of trust in the media. It's like thirty percent of the public trust the media in the country, which is down from it used to be like seventy percent thirty or forty years ago. Okay, but you know what, Democrats still get to seventy percent trust. It's Republicans and independent minor voters that don't trust the media. Anybody who's really thinking about what these guys are saying and doing realize it's a bunch of hooey. And so you know it actually is why people are turning to your show and

Newsmax and other media because they want to. They're voting with their remote controls and their clicks and their dials because they're really sick and tired of what they're seeing in the big media. So it keeps us in business, but I'd rather have a lot more people in the same business.

Speaker 3

Yeah, And I wonder when you come out of high school and college, especially elite college, as you're a marching Marxist, you come out with hatred for the country, sexist, racist, homophobia.

You come out thinking something's wrong with this place. And that's why so few younger Americans twenty five to thirty five years old want to commit to the military, They want to join the police, they want to become a corrections officer, that they want to work as a deputy sheriff, because why invest yourself, your life, treasure, and blood into

a country not worth saving. And one of the scariest things I saw in this a month or two ago was that if we had a red dawn moment in which I don't know, the North Koreans or the Chinese took over parts of our country, and they asked eighteen to thirty year old males, would you fight to save the United States of America. It was kind of split fifty to fifty. About half of that group said, you know what, this isn't such a good place anymore. I

think Britney Griner. Now is a different view. Look, but it is a frightening prospect.

Speaker 8

We're in deep trouble when you have a poll so twenty to twenty five percent of young Americans don't know their sexual agender identity. I mean, hello, I always tell you I'm the only head of a network in America that believes that there's only two biological genders. I'm the only one I think of that I know of. I know that Foxes embrace the transgender stuff ideology. What is gender? Gender is a scientific thing based on chromosomes. There's only two.

I mean, there's not fourteen like the State of California says. But it shows you that we are in you know, I don't know, maybe apocalyptic touns. I don't know, but it's so bizarre. It strains creduity and create and you know, the country that people don't want to fight for the country.

Speaker 6

I think a lot of.

Speaker 8

It comes from big tech, all the algorithms on Google and TikTok and Facebook that you know, when we go on there, we get certain articles. Then through the algorithm, it's fine, we don't notice. But when you're a child, I think they're feeding a diet. And you see it with Disney, which is a horrible company, Disney Plus and Hulu, terrible company. They're feeding people all this time, this garbage that's screwing up the minds of young people, and they

they are not advocating for traditional family guys. It's certainly not advocating for traditional American values. And that's why people were in.

Speaker 3

The trouble, were in you know, Christopher Ruddy of Newsmaxswell and I saw that pull at about about a quarter to a third of young adults, I have a question as to whether they're a male or female. I suppose under one tenth of one percent. Under one tenth of one percent maybe intersect. I've read somewhere that you could have ovaries and male body parts, and I'm thinking, well,

how's that possible. I guess under one tenth of one percent may have a little bit of a problem, but it's not one third of the American people don't know if you're a boy or a girl.

Speaker 4

It's the culture telling him.

Speaker 8

That look scientific aberrations, right, But most people don't have those that are claiming they have these gender issues. Waltz is going on. He said, he supports having ten year olds decide to have surgery. I mean that's child of use.

Speaker 6

I'm sorry.

Speaker 8

Look, I think there's really important reasons newsmax is growing. We're reaching about forty million people a month. As Royer says, were one of the top twelve. I think that people are voting. We're now the number four cable news channel. We regularly beat CNN or are very close in ratings to them, and they're in twenty million more homes on our cable channel. People watching Rob Schmidt and Greta and Greg Kelly and others. And we announced that late this

year early next year, we're going public. We're going to go do We're planning to do an IPO if approved by the government, and we're really looking forward to partnering with hundreds of thousands of Americans. We're even launching a pre IPO for eligible investors to join in now which people, if they're interested in any of that information, can go to newsmaxinvest dot com. It's all there on a simple web page newsmaxinvest dot com. If they want to join our news revolution.

Speaker 3

Bill, I hope, I hope more and more do it now on on We have about two minutes remaining u. Tim Waltz has the most radical abortion viewpoint in the country and enshrine in Minnesota law it's it's way to the left or row versus wad. And I find it amazing that when he says a fourth grade boy in their in their grade school bathroom should have tampon products

available for a ten year old boy. And the thing that comes to mind is every now and then I do a topic on prenatal care, that it's important for women, especially poor women, to have prenatal care because the preborn baby needs prenatal care. Well, is the prenatal care for a baby or is the prenatal care for a for a tumor? Or is it for a growth? What is that? Why have pre natal care? Beginning I looked online prenatal care is recommended for women and it's women that have babies,

not men. By the way, in the sixth to tenth week of pregnancy, six to ten weeks women and these clinics get prenatal care. Why have pre natal care if it's not a baby?

Speaker 8

How can they say? How can they say women build? Because they won't up. Kamala Harris won't Kamala Harris won't tell us what a woman is.

Speaker 4

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm women. Yes, I don't know. I don't know what a woman is.

Speaker 8

No, you can't. We don't know what a woman is. We don't know what a man is. Depends I mean, you know, they don't. But meanwhile they're they're requiring stuff for women, but they won't tell us what a woman is. I mean it is. The Democratic Party is the party of grave danger, and it's it's just in the since in the insanity shop, you know.

Speaker 3

Lastly, Christopher Ruddy, I've said for many years, man, this is an important election. This is the most important election in my life time. And if you go back to twenty oh eight, and assuming Kamala wins and gets eight years, and now we're all of a sudden we're in twenty thirty two, that means twenty of twenty four years, we're going to have Democratic Socialists in charge of this country.

And if you incorporate her viewpoints on the economy and jobs and the Green New Deal and getting rid of electric vehicles, getting rid of private insurance companies, no fracking, no oil drilling, you get rid of all those policies, open up the southern border twenty to forty million coming in right now. There's an additional there's fifty two million Americans not born in this country. And you give this regime another eight years, that number is going to be

close to one hundred million Americans weren't born here. And what's happening to our major cities are magnificent public edifices we call magnificent, gorgeous, opulent in American cities are destroyed, and that college campuses are taken over, the big city newsrooms controlled ABC, NBCCBSPBS. Look at the state of California, Look at Denver, Colorado with thousands of homeless, and look

at what's happening in all over California. City's destroyed by Pelosi, Kamala Harris, Gavin Newsom, and continuing continuing, Ken Christopher Ruddy, Ken, America, can you put in perspective the importance of this election as opposed to what we can look back in maybe eight years from now and say, my God was out of mistake.

Speaker 4

How important is this election?

Speaker 6

Well, I agree with you.

Speaker 8

I think it is the future of America we're fighting for. And it's the super Bowl of elections, the ultimate super Bowl of elections. We're already down a path.

Speaker 6

I don't know.

Speaker 8

You know, they look back and think we already passed the tipping point. They just let in but fifteen million people, and they're spending hundreds of billions of dollars to give them four star hotel room, cell phones, air flights. Incredible stuff that's going on. That's just unbelievable. They're actually now not even waiting for them to cross the border. They actually offered them flights from Mexico City and they can come in cities across the American gets set up in

a hotel. I mean, that's how perverse the Biden people are. And it's just a clear violation I believe in the Constitution, and it's a violation of everything about this country. And so I do believe President Trump. You know, it's very crucial that he gets back in there for four years. I'm supporting him, as you know, and I've known him for over twenty five years, right, and he really does care and he's risked his life now for the country.

And he's a remarkable guy. I just spoke to him, and he really believes the future of this country's at stake, and that's why he had almost eighty is still running now.

Speaker 3

He was shot. He's shed blood for this country. And I would say it's either stopping the inevitable or changing direction. At a minimum, it will stop the inevitable, and it might change the direction of the country. And this country is worth fighting for. It's worth bleeding for, Christopher Rudy once again. And if people are interested in the IPO, it's newsmax invest dot com.

Speaker 8

Is that it That is a newsmaxinvest dot Com.

Speaker 6

Read all the materials.

Speaker 8

But they can actually join in early if they're eligible. The SEC sets the rules for that. But we've had they get a seven percent dividend while they wait for the IPO approval. So we're really looking forward to it. And we've had over forty thousand investors go into the portal on newsmasinvest dot Com and say they want to join with us, and that's going to continue to grow. And we really appreciate your support. Bill.

Speaker 3

All right, well, but God bless you and God bless America. This country is worth fighting for. Christopher Ruddy, You're a great American and thank you for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show.

Speaker 4

Thank you, Christopher.

Speaker 8

I'm honored, Bill, I'm honored. Thank you.

Speaker 4

God bless you. Let's continue with more.

Speaker 8

You know.

Speaker 3

The experts say, if Trump is elected, delays the inevitable, the democratic socialist takeover of this country, which is well underway, or might we change course completely. It all depends on you. Come November fifth, end, before the balloting stare hearts, believe it or not. In about five or six weeks, many states begin to accept these so called absentee ballots the end of September, like in Pennsylvania, Bill cunning in The Great American Live with you every Sunday night. Billy cunning

In The Great American. Christopher Ruddy heads up one of the great news gathering organizations in America called Newsmax. And whenever I want to check what's happening in the world, it's either News Nation Newsmax. I think Fox News to an extent, except for my good friend Sean Hannity, may have lost its way. But most importantly, what's happening now. We're we're still waiting for Hesbela to attack. It may happen tonight Sunday night. Don't know I said this last

Sunday night. Don't know when it's going to happen exactly, but it's going to transpire. And when I listen to some of the generals on News Nation and elsewhere, they will tell you that the Achilles Heel of Iran are those three oil terminal transport sites that deliver is there from something the range of two million barrels of oil a day flowing out of Iran that funds hes Bla

and Amas. Of course, that's literally billions and billions and billions of dollars because of the kindness of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris toward hes Bla, Hamas and Iran.

Speaker 4

That is the Achilles Heel.

Speaker 3

And if has Bla strikes, maybe this should have should have been done previously, take out the ability of Iran to fund these organizations. Iran Tehran certainly is the head of the snake, and the snake may move a little bit after the head has taken out, but not too long.

Speaker 4

So that's what's coming down the road.

Speaker 3

Let's continue with more coming up next is Great American is going to be with us this Sunday night to discuss things such as reparations. That's in about forty minutes or so. Bill Cunningham with you every Sunday. Bill Cunningham, the Great American. Of course, Eric Ark is with Numbers USA, and they keep track of things like policy positions of politicians when it comes to enforcing the law or not

enforcing the law for political purposes. And now that we have the second seat of the Democratic ticket to Governor Tim Waltz of Minnesota pairs to have a stolen valor

problem along with other difficulties. I can't imagine as his city is burning Minneapolis during the George Floyd riots in twenty twenty, that his wife, the First Lady of Minnesota, would open up the windows and want to smell freedom, which is the burning of tires and businesses in Minneapolis, and the governor not deploying the National Guard to save businesses and save human lives. But that's what we're dealing

with now. I didn't think it was possible to have someone to the left of Bernie Sanders, but we do. We have the most liberal member of the US Senate at the time, Kamala Harris, along with the progressive self described socialist who's the governor of Minnesota, hooking up together. So I want to check in with Eric drew Ark of Numbers USA to get the rating and the policies of these two characters, and once again Eric drew Ark,

Welcome to The Cunningham Show. And just in general, would you tell the American people the general policies of Governor Waltz when it comes to illegal migration into the great state of Minnesota, which is like a fifteen hundred miles from the border of Mexico. What are his ratings and what are his policies?

Speaker 7

Well, thanks for having me on, Bill, And you know, I don't think most Americans, even if you follow politics closely, know who Bill Timwalls is. But he was a member of Congress and obviously governor of Minnesota, so he does have a track record that we can look at. And you know, we grade every member of Congress going back to the nineteen nineties, so we gave Walls a D

career grade. But if you look at his grade over time, his last term in Congress, he got an F minus, which puts him on par with Kamon Harris over her career. And he if you see his votes, he moved with the party from being you know, not terrible the row when it comes to enforcement and border security, an amnesty. I mean, he did end up voting for six amnesties but that came later on in his term, and so he moved along with the Democratic Party to basically supporting

open borders and opposing any effective enforcement. And we saw that play out when he became governor, since he was very much happy to promote Minnesota as a sanctuary state and signed a bill into the law which gave driver's licenses to illegal immigrants, and he did impede federal authorities or he wouldn't cooperate, which is an essense impeding federal authorities from trying to enforce immigration law in Minnesota, and so he was sheltering criminal aliens and bragging about it's

very confident, very comfortable in saying that he was going to shield people who were in the country legally, even if they committed crime while they're here.

Speaker 3

And can you address just some thirty thousand feet. We have numerous parts of the Democratic Socialist Party who wants to give illegals drivers' licenses, illegals government benefits. Illegals get their food stamp cards, they get their free phones, they

get their free rent, get all that free stuff. And then also when it comes to going to college, if your age appropriate, they want to pay for you to go to college if you're illegal, and looking from on high, what is the reason for this, Well, do they want to substitute in the future these illegals to become more

democratic voters. And I would point out that Kamala Harris and Tim Walltz both want to have a path quickly to citizenship for illegals, that if you get a government benefit of any type, you're registered to vote automatically, and you should vote. If you're illegal. Now you have to go through the process that is federally illegal at this point, but I don't think many local registrars care. You get a ballot in the ale and you vote and send

it in. For example, in in eighteen states including Minnesota, Nevada, Arizona, if you have a driver's license. If you're illegal and you have a driver's license, you're automatically registered to vote. So a month before the election, you're sent a ballot in the mail to vote, and you're illegal, and there's nobody policing whether that is right or wrong, because automatically

they send you the ballot. And if you're an illegal from Venezuela and you look and you get in the mail your ballot, you might assume you know what I can vote, and thousands and thousands vote that that way, And so what is the reason for one party? And I might add, I might add Eric Drewerk. In twenty oh seven and twenty oh eight, Barack Hussein Obama sounded like me and you when it came to illegal migration. The quotes of Obama and twenty oh eight about cracking

down on the southern border. We can't let illegals in. Obama sounded like you and me back in twenty oh eight. So what changed with the Democratic Party from twenty eight to twenty twenty four.

Speaker 7

Well, you're right about Canadate Obama at right, and the way he was talking about immigration, he sounds, you know, not Trump. I mean, Trump is very much more forceful in his language. But certainly the Democratic Party at that time was talking not only about stopping illegal immigration, but also talking about Obama's talking about legal immigration and having a level of legal immigration. If they have a high level of legal immigration, that you're going to hurt American workers.

And this is something that a lot of people don't understand. The Democratic Party wasn't far off from a policy standpoint of what we're seeing from Donald Trump. Again, the rhetoric was different, but the policy was very much the same. And that's a really great question about how they'd moved from at least acknowledging that there are trade offs from immigration to Kamalin Harris's position that illegal issue is not

a crime. She has said that publicly, which is a very strange thing for someone who's supposed to be a prosecutor to say, is simply, I don't recognize the law as being the law, and I'm going to ignore it. Well, now laws is different in that respect because he hasn't come out and said, you know, it's not a crime, but what he has said is we're not going to punish people for breaking the walls. And I do think

there's two things that play here. You're talking about voting and what we've seen, and it's difficult really put a number on it because so you know, the media certainly doesn't want to look at a Democratic party is pretending that it's not happening. But yes, non citizens are voting.

But I think the bigger issue here is when it comes to what's known as ballot harvesting, because if someone's registered to vote, they might not be showing up to the voting booth and pulling the lever, but they have ballots which are being mailed to them, and you have operations on the ground where people are collecting those ballots, filling them out for people who may not be registered

or legally registered to vote, and turning them in. I think that's a larger problem that certainly is happening and needs to be addressed.

Speaker 6

And you know, we we our media.

Speaker 7

Can claim it's not happening. We see it's happening. We just don't know the extent because we haven't had sufficient investigations into it. But I think you know, and obviously that's for the Democratic Party a motivation if you if you have people who aren't here, but you can get them their votes counted in favor of your party, then then you're going to be all in.

Speaker 8

Favor of that.

Speaker 7

The other thing, though, and this is why they present the Democrats, you know, Harris and Walls, is such a humanitarian issue is you can't say to the public, we want to bring in millions of foreign workers to displace workers here and to drive wages and working conditions down in the US. So what you presented as isn't our donors are giving us lots of money for cheap labor and which will be subsidized by taxpayers. That's not a

winning argument to make to voters. So they're presenting it as these people are refue they're a syli right, they're fleeing poverty, and that's I think really the ultimate is this is the US Chamber of Commerce position about cheap labor. The Democratic Party is presenting it as a humanitarian crisis when it's anything but. The humanitarian crisis is the fact that we're incentivizing people to make dangerous journeys into the United States and that we're handing over control of our

border to the cartels. That's a humanitarian crisis, not the fact that these people are refugees or sil the economic migrants who are seeking a better life, which is a rational decision.

Speaker 6

Right to come the United.

Speaker 7

States absolutely make them eligible to enter the United States, and it doesn't cover up what's happening to the US workers, n US taxpayers. And the crime is use, which is a real thing, no matter how many times the media tries to dismiss it.

Speaker 3

Aaron gruark On just on the front of the culinary workers in Las Vegas and related communities in the Veda my good friend and yours, Wayne Allen Root, will talk about ballot harvesting in which there's tens of thousands of workers and lost Vegas. I would assume a great majority or not citizens. But there are culinary workers' unions who get the ballots, and they have workers who are not legally in the country and can't legally vote, fill them out.

And then they collect hundreds or thousands of ballots and put them in unguarded drop boxes and they're simply counted with all the others. And nobody in Nevada is going to go through each individual ballot to see who is Hernandez and who is Fernandez and who is Gonzales.

Speaker 4

They don't go through that. They simply do it.

Speaker 3

And secondly, I want to get your view on the overflights which were stopped about a week ago by my Yorkers who was impeached by the Congress. For many many years under Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, you could be in Haiti, Venezuela, Colombia and go online, get an app and the US government would pay for a flight from Caracas, Venezuela, de Land and Duluth, Minnesota. It was about one thousand a day all over the country and then they would be

released into Minnesota. Explain why the program was temporarily stopped and how evil that program was, because again you're dispersing these voters, potential voters and citizens, costing billions of dollars all over the country. And that's what Joe Biden, Kamala Harris wanted to do. Explain that to the American people.

Speaker 7

Yeah, this is a program we had. They're doing it under the parole authority. Now it's a complete violation of what the law says about how to use parole. But some people who were showing up from countries Cuba, Haiti, Venezuela, and Nicaragua were allowed to be paroled, and there the Biden administration was paroling them in despite the fact that

they shouldn't do that because they're inadmissible. But they also were allowing people to fly directly from their home country into the United States, which is again completely in violation of the law. They stopped that program recently because of extensive fraud.

Speaker 6

And now, not only if we.

Speaker 7

Point out at the beginning that this was not allowable, but also that they weren't vetting these people. They don't know who these people are, and ultimately the problem is they don't care. They're trying to get them into the country under the color of cover of law. Why they

stopped it is interesting. I would assume that there was going to be either a whistlebo or reports coming out about how fraudulent this was, and they wanted to get in front of that before the election because the extent of the problems within this program were so vast that they want to give the impression that they're really trying to crack down and illegal immigration. At least the numbers

have gone down. But here's the thing. The numbers of illegal crossings as they're counted by the Biden administration have gone down because they're not counting in admissible aliens who have no right to enter the country as illegal crossings. They have claimed that they can create new legal pathways, and that's really ultimately here at the big threat is we have laws to deal the president United States doesn't

need more authority to stop no immigration. No, but this president, and we see President Hair certainly doesn't seem to be inclined to enforce the laws. And so that's the real challenge, and that's why Congress is so crucial here is that they have to not give the president more authority, but

to reign in the abuses of this president. And if president, if Vice President Hairs were to become president, we don't think that there's any hope that she would none stop these things, but we would see more of the same.

Speaker 3

In fact, she would assume, along with Tim Waltz, the socialist governor of Minnesota, they would assume that you know, the policies that I advocate is what the American people want. So these policies of flying in and parolling individuals over the border and flights that we pay for. These policies have opened up the southern border would be would be in their view acceptable because they just got elected.

Speaker 2

Now.

Speaker 3

Lastly, I saw Pete Budha, Judge on one of the morning talk shows, talk about how illegal illegal immigrants have built the country. I've had Governor Waltz talk about how important they are to us and the fact they commit so little crime, and this drives me up a wall. Of course, Governor walt said, if you build the wall twenty feet tall, I'll buy ladders to make them ladder thirty foot tall.

That's his attitude about the law. But because the immigration status is not inquired in by arresting officers, the cops, especially in blue cities and blue states, are told do not inquire as the immigration status. How do we know that these unattached large numbers of males in their twenties and thirties are not committing more crime disroportionately when their immigration status is not asked at the point of arrest. Isn't Pete Budha Judge making a ridiculous.

Speaker 7

Statement, Well, he is, and I didn't see that particular clip, but he's made a lot of ridiculous statements over the years about immigration. But you're absolutely right. It's difficult to say what the extent of criminal activity is by illegal aliens in this country, but we do know what's happening, and we do see the anecdotal eveleence, but there's also data that very strongly suggests that they're much more likely

to commit not just immigration violations but other crimes. And that's you know, what we see from Buddha Judge and Harrison nine Walls and others is and we've talked about this before. You can't convince the American people that what's actually happening isn't happening in their communities. They're seeing the influx.

And we've also talked about most people are coming here for jobs, but because the borders open, those who are criminals, those who are terrorists, and those who are want to prey on people in this country are also coming over that border the same way, and they're coming here in crime has increased because of illegal immigration, and no one who has been a victim or is seeing what's happening in their communities is going to be convinced by a politician,

by a politician telling them that it isn't happening.

Speaker 3

Well, if you want to make a change, Trump is

out there. If you don't want to make a change, if you're real happy with immigration policy, you're happy with increased crime, increased governmental costs, who are off the charts, And if you believe that we're enhanced by parrolling into this country millions and millions of unattached males who are don't have the skills necessary to compete in this economy, If you think somehow this is a good thing, the vote for Kamala Harris, because if she is elected, she's

going to assume the policies that she wants are going to be on steroids because we want them. But Eric Ruark, once again, thank you for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show. And all the information is at NumbersUSA dot com, NumbersUSA dot com. And we need to get educated because I've always said, in my forty one years in radio i started as a young man, I've always believed that this is the most important presidential election in my lifetime.

Speaker 4

Well this time I'm finally right.

Speaker 3

You can go one direction or the other, and it's up to us as participating in this great experiment in democracy, whether its laws are enforced or not. But Eric grew Ark, you're a great American, and thank you for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show.

Speaker 4

Thank you.

Speaker 7

Eric's always great to.

Speaker 6

Be on with you.

Speaker 8

Bill.

Speaker 3

God bless America. Let's continue with more. And those are the facts upon which you must make an informed decision. What direction you want the country to go for you, your kids, your grandkids, what kind of country we're going to look like in ten or fifteen years from now. If we have an additional fifty million illegals in the country on top of the other fifty million, that's one hundred million people. And damn it. We can't afford it in so many ways. Bill Cunningham, the Great American, live

with you every Sunday Night. Billy Cunningham the Great American.

Speaker 4

Once again.

Speaker 3

Eric grew Arc of Numbers USA speaks the truth and you may know earlier today and one of the interviews, shadey Vance advanced the idea which is supported by most of the American people. Whether you live in Kansas, or live in California, or live in Ohio, live in Florida, live in Texas, about seventy percent of the American people say that those here illegally should be deported, and so

the media doesn't like to hear that. Adi Van said, it begins with about a million, which are the criminals, the criminal aliens, those with no documents, those papers, and those on the terror watch list. Does it make sense to get someone out of this country on the terror watch list? I think the easy answer is, oh yeah, let's do that first. And so there was a great deportation under Dwight D. Eisenhower the nineteen fifties. Here we are about seventy years later. It needs to be repeated,

and obviously that must happen. The choice is yours to continue on the path, are on with high inflation, with a recked southern border, with crime out of control, or whether it go in a different directions.

Speaker 4

Some have said that Donald Trump.

Speaker 3

Will only delay the inevitable, which is socialistic overcoming of America, or will he start a new course.

Speaker 4

I prefer the latter and not the former.

Speaker 3

Let's continue with more coming up next to Jancarlow is gonna report on what Kamala Harris thinks about reparations and more. Go cunning in with you every summer.

Speaker 9

You know.

Speaker 1

Willie rock you by Choice Hotels, a Cuttle Lodge and Roadway in hotels are serving up double points for over qualifying stage book at.

Speaker 6

Choice Hotels dot com.

Speaker 1

Now here's the man who's been recognized as radiost, the recipient of not one, but two prestigious Marconi Awards for he's broadcast exercise, the one and only Bill Cunningham.

Speaker 4

Bill Cunningham, the Great American.

Speaker 3

Of course, we have now the VP selection that Governor Waltz the Socialists to work with Kamala Harris to fundamentally change the country, which was the mission that began in twenty oh seven and twenty oh eight. And we try over the next several weeks to inform the American people as to the policies coming their way if Kamala Harris wins the presidency, and she will assume if she wins along with the socialists from Minnesota, and guess what this

is what you want as an American. Giancarlo Connaparo is a senior Legal Fellow at the Heritage Foundation's me Center for Legal and Judicial Studies in gian Carlo, Welcome to the Bill Cunningham Show. And the first question is this in the past, and she's never refuted this, that Kamala Harris believes in reparations based I imagine upon race. And when you look at her history, when I go through various sources, it appears at her family, her father's family in Jamaica

owned African slaves, So it gets a bit complicated. How would it work, How would Kamala Harris's support for reparations work for Black Americans?

Speaker 4

Who pays it? How much? And would it tear the American people apart?

Speaker 10

Well, these are all excellent questions which we've never got answers to from Kamala Harris. Although she does support it, it's not a matter of not repudiating. She has come out and endorse these proposals. At sort of a very abstract level, what she says is that some money has to be paid to Black Americans for slavery and what she calls systemic racism in the system. Now what exactly that means, I don't know. But I've got a couple

questions for Kamala Harris about this. Right. So she says that reparations should go to black people, Well, you know, there are a lot of recent black immigrants from Africa and the West Indies. Her father is one of them. I mean, she is not a descendant of an American slave, her father, she grew up here after the Civil rights movement of nineteen sixty four. To recent immigrants get slavery reparations,

well no, of course not. Do they get, you know, reparations for discrimination if they came here after we passed the Civil Rights Act. Does make a lot of sense. But even on the slavery question, it's not nearly as clear as supporters of reparations like Kamala Harris think, because only forty one percent of Black Americans, according to Pew Research, think that their family was enslaved in America. Which means that, you know, if you use black as a proxy for slavery,

it's a pretty bad proxy. But while we're talking about black, just who qualifies anyway and who decides who qualifies? Do you qualify if your family, you know, if you are only half black or one eighth maybe or one sixteenth or does the government need to start measuring the quanta of your blood like it used to do in the South during Jim Crow? Do we really want to go there? And what happens if you only identify as black but maybe you're actually white, like Rachel Dolisol?

Speaker 6

Do you get reparations? Are you black?

Speaker 10

Is it a matter of identity like sex? Is? All questions that just sort of reveal the absolute absurdity of these sorts of proposals. But you know, if we're going to be serious about them, like Kamala Harris seems to be, she needs to answer these questions.

Speaker 3

Well, you bring this up, Jane Carlo, I've done ancestry dot com that kind of stuff. I'm five percent black, and the Cunningham name is all over the black community, but I identify as a white, Irish, Catholic American. I'm an American. Do I get five percent if I can show Hey, wait a minute, I'm five percent black. The Cunningham name is all over the black community. Do I

get five percent? And what if if you were a slave owner and not a slave, For example, the family of Kamala Harrison in Jamaica, she's not the how do you do I get five percent of whatever someone else gets? And as a slave owning family, does Kamala Harris have to pay or get paid?

Speaker 6

Yeah?

Speaker 10

I mean, these are all all questions that have to be answered if these are going to be even you know, remotely non arbitrary. Of course, we're not getting answers to these kinds of questions. You know, you bring up a good point. I think about foreign President Barack Obama. His family, his ancestors were both slaves and slaveholders. You know, how

do you thread that needle? Ultimately? You know, the only the only concrete proposal that I have seen for just determining how to give out these reparations monies is just to say, like what people in California have proposed, which is we're just gonna allocate a huge lump sum of money and we're gonna give it to a bunch to liberal organizations that say they represent black people and then

they're just going to give out the money however they want. That, I kid you not is the best, most precise explanation that anybody has come up with to answer these complicated questions. And of course it's no answer at all. Right, it's just a recipe for cronyism, you know. But look, if I mean, we laugh, But look, these are serious proposals that have a lot of weight behind them on the far left, and they will have the weight of the president behind them if Kamala Harris is elected. So we

unfortunately have to take them really seriously. And early on in this call you mentioned you asked the question, you know, is Kamala harr is going to tear the country apart over these kinds of proposals. That's the only question that I actually have a good answer to the answer is yes, there is nothing in America more certain to tear the social fabric of this country apart than a racial spoil system. And that's all these sorts of things really are.

Speaker 3

But you know, you go and let's face it, let's face it, she is that's good with her because the chaos she's done on the southern border isn't affirmative action and DEI, which the left encompasses completely, and God may God bless you. If you want to call her the queen of DEI, you'll be you'll be pillaredad But Joe Biden was the one who said he wanted to pick a black female as vice president. And Joe Biden was the one that said he wanted to pick a black

female in the Supreme Court. So they practiced DEI and practice affirmative action, and then then dare you to even mention the fact that they do it, and it's your problem. But over the last fifty years, has an affirmative action and DEI been the essence of reparations?

Speaker 4

Yeah, yeah, you can certainly make that argument.

Speaker 10

The ideology is exactly the same. So the thinking goes, certain people are entitled to more because of whatever historical discrimination, even if they don't face it today, even if we've worked hard as a country to eliminate that sort of

thing and to make it not okay. But it is a racial spoil system from top to bottom that says you, certain people of a certain race are just entitled to better treatment than others, and that is toxic and that will I mean, that will tear this country apart from top to bottom.

Speaker 3

Well, let's get into one other issue, Jian Carlo kind of paro, and that is growing up, we were told about an equal opportunity, employer, equal opportunity. That everyone now has an equal opportunity. And by the way, the Democrats were the ones of the racial spoil system. The Democrats were the party of slavery. The Democrats were the party of Jim Crow, The Democrats were the party of lynchings,

the Democrat was the party of racial spoil system. That Democrats are the ones with Ku Klux Klan outfits in the nineteen twenties that marched up and down Washington d C Avenues. It was the Democrats that did all this. But when I grew up, it was an equal opportunity,

give everyone equal opportunity. And from that Kamala Harris, I guess claims to be black at this point, has been elected as a city prosecutor, a county prosecutor, the Attorney general of California, US senator from California, vice President of the United States, and if the polls are right, maybe the president.

Speaker 4

How hard has.

Speaker 3

It been for her to succeed magnificently in her area of study, which is politics, despite or maybe because of her color of skin. Explaining the American people the difference between equal opportunity as opposed to equity, those are different things.

Speaker 10

Explain that, Yeah, equity is the big buzzword these days, and equity means that you reach the same outcomes. It means that the government puts its thumb on the scale, it takes from some people who have a lot, gives to people who have less, that every we run reaches the same outcome. And the basis on which the government makes those takings and givings decision is the color of your skin. That's racial equity, and that is what common here is all about.

Speaker 3

So we have a system now in which more money is spent on public education and urban areas than in most suburban areas. We have a situation now where it has been. It's certainly the case among corporate America and elsewhere, colleges, universities broadcasting that the color of your skin, your gender, and your identity counts a whole bunch. Because we look at TV today there are black faces and brown faces

and gay faces everywhere. We have equal opportunity. We have large numbers of individuals who have succeeded or not succeeded only because not because of the color of their skin, but the content of their character. And that is a look around today, and I work with black folks and Hispanic folks, and gay folks and lesbian folks. It's okay, it's fine. But when the outcome is not the same.

Now democrats want to say, well, after all, there's all this insipid there's all this unspoken, there's all this quote institutional racism that I can't prove by individual acts, but we all know it exists. So therefore, let's not only give equal opportunity. But when large numbers of individuals of color don't succeed by whatever means or method objective standards, let's make sure at the end of the day we divide up the pie and give them at the end of the day as much or more money than someoney

that went through the process and worked hard. When I look at the NBA, look at college football, look at high school, whatever it is, I see great successes all the time from persons of color. But the equal opportunity argument is done. Why in your view, Gian Carlo. What was the turning point and what was the reason we got rid of equal opportunity now we want the same results. Did that happen to in your mind? Did that come at a moment or simply we evolved into this, you know, in.

Speaker 10

A sense, it's always been around after the civil rights movement, but you really saw it explode right after we passed the Civil Rights back in nineteen sixty four. You remember, that's when there were all the riots, the black power, black panther kind of riots in inner cities. They had just won this massive legislative victory.

Speaker 6

But there had.

Speaker 10

Always been two civil rights movements, right There had been Martin Luther King Junior, the old civil rights movement, who embraced, you know, equal opportunity, the content of your character, not the color of your skin. And then there were always the people like Stokely Carmichael on the other side, who hated that message and wanted the government to pick winners

and losers on the basis of race. It was anger, It was, you know, a sense of injustice and a sense that you know, you couldn't actually have a country where people treated each other equally without regard to skin color. That was naive, It was silly. What you really needed was power to force on people who didn't look like you, so that you have people who looked like you could get ahead. And that found a really sympathetic audience in

predominantly wealthy intellectual liberals. They found that really comforting. There was a sense that the fact that nobody could ever actually behave and be color blind and treat people well without regard to the coast and it gave them freedom. It absolved them of responsibility, right, so all they had to do is give a little money here, make the government solve some problems there, redistribute a little wealth here, and they could be good without actually being good. And

that I think really explains it. It has just taken over liberal intellectual elite types and they're they're the ones pushing it.

Speaker 8

You know.

Speaker 10

The crazy thing is, you know, if you actually go and you talk to your average black Americans and you tell them, do you think you can only get ahead in life if the government gives you a handout?

Speaker 6

There would be.

Speaker 10

Insulted by the suggestion, you know, as they should be. I mean, it's absurd, but it comes from people like Kamala Harris who live in these intellectual bubbles. It makes them feel good about themselves. It makes them feel like they can solve storny and complicated problems that don't beg for real easy solutions. But they have it well.

Speaker 3

The greatest population of poor people in America are white. Numerically, by far, the great majority of poor people are white. And I don't know how you have reparations unless you start with African tribes who and capture their own people and sold them. And I'm poaching from an article written by Thomas Sole about fifteen years ago, who relates that

a story untold. By contrast, the number of people between eleven and twelve million slaves were taken from Africa and captured by African tribes and sold to Europeans and Arabs mainly, and we received about four percent of the total, about four percent to America. The other ninety six percent were

selled elsewhere. And the reason black survived in this country as slaves but not in South America is because, despite the brutality of what happened in the southern plantations, controlled a course by Democrats, they were treated much better than those who went into the Amazon fours to clear out the trees et cetera. They were just slaughtered. America received four percent of the slaves from Africa who were captured

by African tribesmen. Can we go back to Africa and ask reparations from them for selling four percent of the slaves to Americans who were democrats? Is that possible?

Speaker 10

Well, no, of course not. But you know what, You've hit on something interesting, which is what is it in America that is unique about slavery. It's not that we had slavery. It's not that we got our slaves from Africa. You know what's unique about America and slavery is that we ended it. We developed the philosophy, the Christian based Western philosophy that realized that individual human lives have value, no matter the color of their skin. We went to

war to end it. We sent fleets across the nation, across the world to end it. We stamped it out around the whole We're here first and around the whole world. That's what's unique about America and slavery, not that it happened.

Speaker 3

And gian Carlo I had to point out historically that in the eighteen thirties the British Empire stopped it. In the eighteen sixties, America stopped it, but the African tribes and others, mainly the Arabs, continued the practice for centuries later. In today, the UN says today here we are in August of twenty twenty four, there's more slaves alive today than ever before. So we got into the tail end of the practice and we ended it. We stopped it well the rest of the world, in South America and

Africa and Arab countries. The word slaves come from Slavs, which are the European people enslaved by the Muslim tribes because they were attractive with blonde hair, especially the women. But slavery continued. America stopped it, Britain stopped it, but the African tribes and South Americans and the Arabs continued it even through today. There's more slaves alive today than ever before in human history. Jan Carlo conna Paro of the Heritage Foundation, I think the truth will set us free.

And with the Kamala Harris types, it is a political slogan untethered to reality. And gion Carlo, once again, thank you for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show. And gian Carlo, that's a great first name. You're a great American. Jan Carlo, thank you. I'd rather have your name than Bill, but Jan Carlo, thank you for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show, and possibly we'll do it again. Thank you, sir, Thank you very.

Speaker 10

Much, my pleasure.

Speaker 4

Bill, Thank you, God bless you.

Speaker 3

Oh let's continue. By the way, the truth will set you free. These are the facts. The facts bother you. Bill Cunningham, the Great American. Live with you every Sunday Night by Billy cunning Him the Great American. Although the media won't report on this because it's injurious to the campaign of Kamala Harris, but she has repeatedly said there needs to be operations given to African Americans, and just heard from gian Carlo Connaparo some of the difficulties in

doing so. Yours, truly, I'm told, has about five percent black blood in me, which doesn't bother me one bit. The name Cunningham is all over the black community, and I get that. It is simply a motive, It is simply a motto. It is simply a word untethered to reality. It would be impossible, illegally to award someone money public money based upon one skin color.

Speaker 4

That's illegal.

Speaker 3

It's called unconstitutional, but who cares about that. If you can trick people into believing the check is coming your way, they may vote for the Democratic ticket.

Speaker 4

Coming up.

Speaker 3

Lastly will be a Great American from News Nation, Leland vitters Bill Cunningham, The Great American with you and all other great Americans every Sunday night, Johan, You and I now is on balances at Leland Vetterck every Monday through Friday on News Nation, et cetera. And Leland Viddert. Welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show. And Leland. First of all, the polling seems to indicate as we speak that the

race is tied between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. The last five or six weeks beginning June the twenty seventh, have been absolutely unbelievable. And right now she's running a shadow campaign in which she reads from the teleprompter, does about a thirty eight second interview with some reporter off to the side of the plane with the engines running, then gets back on the plane.

Speaker 4

So here's the big question.

Speaker 3

I may ask you the big question early on, Leland, Are you ready for the big question?

Speaker 6

Always?

Speaker 4

All right? Can she for the.

Speaker 3

Next I don't know eighty five eighty eight days, do this and nothing else like Joe Biden did in twenty twenty, stay in the basement. She has the Great debate I guess on ABC on I think September tenth, And whoever wins that debate, that'll be the end of the debates.

Speaker 4

Whoever wins, that's it. I've already done it.

Speaker 3

So can she do what she's done successfully for the next eighty five to ninety days yay or nay?

Speaker 9

Well, you know they say in the financial markets that past performance is not indicative of future results.

Speaker 6

I would argue in.

Speaker 9

Politics that if if it's working, why do anything different? And it is working for her, And so far the media at all has been compliant in not beating the drum.

Speaker 6

Of your in the basement.

Speaker 9

And you rightly pointed out this is a figuredive basement rather than the literal basement that Joe Biden was in.

Speaker 6

But you rightly point out that it.

Speaker 9

Worked for Joe Biden in twenty twenty and it is currently working for Kamala Harris.

Speaker 3

Well, the excuse that Joe Biden had in twenty twenty, well, fear COVID and I got to wear my mask, and I can't go in public. He had like drive in movie theater deals. It kind of worked in twenty twenty.

And I'm just suspicious of the idea that even the so called mainstream media of which you might be a part of in a sense News Nation is doing great about the only cable channel increasing in ratings, that somehow you and the mainstream media will allow her even after September the tenth, for like two months or thereafter, with voting taking place, will allow her not to confront the obvious differences between things she's said in the past and

things she's not saying today. And my answer would be yes, that the media, the mainstream media, is so committed to her victory and so committed to the absolute defeat of Donald Trump that they will permit this as they would permit with no other am I correct.

Speaker 9

Hard to argue with your logic. The hatred of Donald Trump by a large PARTI portion, I think you can call it the legacy media or the advocacy media at least some alaste is certainly palpable.

Speaker 6

And you bring up a great.

Speaker 9

Point, which is about the policy issues of Donald Trump versus Kamala Harrison, specifically the big issues with Kamala Harris and policies. Okay, Does she still believe okay, in ending the filibuster for the Green New Deal? We are led to believe. We are led to believe that she does not, but she won't come.

Speaker 6

Out and say it.

Speaker 9

Does she still believe in Medicare for all, single payer healthcare, taking away private insurance?

Speaker 6

Again, we don't know.

Speaker 9

Where is she on fracking? Right, Well, she wanted to end fracking. Does she still want to end fracking? She's not saying enough on the stumps saying that, but she's not saying anything different.

Speaker 6

So those are the real issues.

Speaker 9

But when you're getting the crowd size she's getting and there's enthusiasm for her and therefore there are people tuning in to watch her and be absorbed by freedom and joy, then there's not much incentive by the media so far to call that out.

Speaker 4

On the issue.

Speaker 3

Is the two big issues in the country according to polling I think you and I would agree are inflation and illegal immigration. Not legal immigration, we admit legally one million people every year, more people legally admitted to all the countries in the world put together legally, But we also admit anywhere between five and ten million illegally and inflation, and in her stump speech she says, we have to

stop the rise of inflation. On immigration, she says basically that we're a nation of immigrants, so we have to understand where each of us came from without giving us any policy prescriptions. Can she walk a fine line on inflation when the governmental policies of Biden Harris have caused the inflation. When Trump left office, the inflation rate was one point four percent. About a year and a half later it was nine percent. Now hovers between three and

a half to four and a half percent. Can she walk the fine line and do happy talk on inflation when the Inflation and Reduction Act misnamed which caused inflation increase. And on immigration, whether you use the word czar or not, she was in charge of the southern border, and so the adoring crowds that show up, which I understand. The other day there was a disaster in one of her rallies in which the adherents who came to listen to her to not get home for hours and hours and hours.

There was a breakdown of transportation, that they were dehydrated, et cetera. But it's amazing to me that on the issues of inflation and immigration, Trump is like a twenty five to thirty five percent lead over Kamala Harris, and still the polls seemingly at this point have them tied. Is that good or bad for the Trumps, good or bad for Harris?

Speaker 9

Well, when you've got the momentum which Harris has, it's always good for you. You always want to have the

big mo That's number one. Number two, You rightly point out that Kamala Harris has managed to do something in three weeks that Joe Biden couldn't do in three years, which is divorce herself from the Biden Harris legacy, right, and they and all of the things that people didn't like about Joe Biden and all the policies people didn't like, she somehow has completely disassociated herself with And you listen to her thumb speech.

Speaker 6

And there's an ad that she just came out with.

Speaker 9

We're going to highlight this on the show, and you can read about it in our newsletter wardotes dot com to subscribe for free her new Her new ad talks about being in the in the middle class and on day one she is going to work for the middle class and she is going to work to to to lower the costs of how the lower the cost of housing? Well, what are you going to this, I think would be the fair question. What are you going to do differently

to lower the cost of housing? And Joe Biden has been doing to lower the cost of housing for the past three years that have caused the house of the cost of housing to go up.

Speaker 6

What are you going to do differently?

Speaker 4

Her solution is rent controls?

Speaker 3

So what about she says, rent don't rent controls cause housing rents to go up, because in California the prescription is rent controls. In other words, you can't increase the apartments more than five percent or three percent a year or less. And if the prescription for housing difficulties are rent controls.

Speaker 4

Isn't it clear?

Speaker 3

By Milton Friedman long passed away, but one of my economic heroes that rent controls used by socialists will eventually cause fewer apartments to be built, fewer houses to be built. There's not much of a profit in it. And secondly, rent controls calls rents to go up. Does she understand that?

Speaker 9

Oh, come on, Bill, you know the problem with socialism. It's just never been tried in its perfect model.

Speaker 6

Well, come on, come on, come on.

Speaker 9

Was to be fair. I don't say either she doesn't know or doesn't believe it. Okay, because Tim Walls, who is the first and only executive decisions she has made, says that one man's socialism is just another man's word for neighborly this okay. You know that.

Speaker 6

Kamala Harris has shown.

Speaker 9

And said where she stands on a lot of these issues. And the fact that Donald Trump is.

Speaker 6

Ahead on the issues.

Speaker 9

When you pull the issues immigration, inflation, crime, the fact that Donald Trump is ahead by double digits on those but yet is pulling neck and neck, one might say, okay, that that is that is that we should require some soul searching by Donald Trump, not because there is something that the polls are that the American public likes him on the issues and doesn't like him enough to vote for him. That might, under normal circumstances require a reset.

To use a friendly term these days turn phrase in a campaign, he tried that yesterday, I guess to dismal effects.

Speaker 3

Right, and in fact went on the economy, on jobs, on inflation, on immigration. Trump isn't beating her by a couple percentage points. It's like two to one, not even close. So maybe his person but he's way up on it. He's way up on those issues with her double trouble digits. And I'm thinking, Okay, maybe he'll look at himself and say, maybe it's my peccadillo. Is my personality?

Speaker 9

You known him for a long You've known him for a long time. Have you ever known Donald Trump to look at himself and go.

Speaker 3

You know, no, not yet, not yet.

Speaker 4

I mean, he's seventy eight.

Speaker 9

I'll give you the two thousand eight line.

Speaker 6

There's always hope this.

Speaker 3

You know, there's hope and change maybe, but it hasn't happened yet. Now let's talk for a moment about Governor Tim Wallas versus J. D. Vance And I think this military thing is, you know things. Charles Cronhammer wrote a book. I had him on a couple of times. His greatest compilation of essays was that matter. And whether or not Governor Tim Waltz actually deserted or whether he quit or whether he took retirement from the Minnesota National Guard before

deployment is interesting off some twenty some years ago. But I don't think My producer Tony Benner gets up with the kitchen table every morning and say, honey, you know I was going to vote for Kamala Harrison. I don't know about Tim Walls what he did in twenty oh four. I mean, I don't know if I can do that. Aren't those in the categories of things that don't matter?

Just like jd Vance allegedly saying, I guess the cat ladies, single liberal females, white entitled women that become angry at men as they get older, aren't these things that don't matter?

Speaker 9

Ultimately, I think I think the cat ladies thing matters a lot more than the Walls thing. You're you're right that voters aren't going to suddenly say, oh, well, you know so it's Tim Walls was less and probably fully candidate in a couple of stump speeches about his military record, and therefore they're not going to vote for him. So no, I think I think you're I think you're absolutely right. Jady Vance still has a problem with voters. And you know this is you and I talked about this last week.

The problem that jad Vance has is he allowed somebody else to define him.

Speaker 6

And when you.

Speaker 9

Allow other other people to define you, first, bad things happen. It's just the way life is. And I think that that's where we're at, which is Jade Vance has been defined by the media and that doesn't that doesn't work out well now.

Speaker 4

And I've known him.

Speaker 3

I've known Jady Vance, uh not as long as I've known Donald Trump. But Jadi Vance is a great guy. I mean his wife, Usha, the three kids, and how he lived his life, where he came from from Middletown, Ohio and living in the third to Jackson, Kentucky. I mean, he's the American dream. And then it's amazing that some interview with Tucker Carlson four years ago has stuck to him because the media keeps bringing it up. They don't stop until they have the desired effect. And I don't know.

And you know how the cable news game is played that you want to have guests on who can turn a phrase and run the meters. And I'm sure in twenty twenty, if he would have gone back in time, he wouldn't have used the term cat ladies to describe what is happening. I think the substance of his remarks

were accurate. The labeling was somewhat inaccurate and is able to be like voodoo economics was to Bush forty one in Reagan that somehow it sticks or it's like the rabbit that chased down Jimmy Carter in the pond, and so whatever it is the media, it kind of sticks to you. And I'm not sure he can get out.

But at the end of the day, I said before Leland Vedderts of News Nation that what's going to decide this race hasn't happened yet, and I just have I have a fear that what's happening in Vienna, Austria, because of all the terrorists that are let into our country by the policies of this administration, something bad's going to happen and everything's going to change.

Speaker 9

Well, things change, right, We've learned that from a debate and an attempted assassination and the switch of candidates. Things change in politics, and so that's why we we have to you know, we have to say, if the election were held today, this is how it is. But if the election were held tomorrow, if things could be different, and in fact they will be.

Speaker 3

You know, I've gone back and forth saying Trump can't lose, to Trump can't win. Now I'm kind of in the middle. But you brought up a great point. That is, if you're way up in the polling, everyone knows Trump's better for jobs. Trump's better for the Green New Deal stuff. He's better for the gas and oil. He's better on that energy. He's better on the economy by a wide margin.

He's better on inflation by a wide margin. He's better on immigration, four or five issues that really matter to Americans. He is way up on Kamala Harris. There is something going on that keeps more and more Americans from saying I'm gonna go with that guy. I think he appeals to your intains that lead in the jobs, in the economy. I think he's gonna win unless something happens that changes the race completely. Leland Vetter, thanks for coming on and

I appreciate it. We'll see what happens, and all I can say is this is one hell of a ride, and it's going to continue until November fifth, But at this point I'm glad you share your thoughts with us, and thanks again for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show.

Speaker 7

Thank you, Leland, to be with you.

Speaker 3

Bill, God bless you. Let's continue with more Bill Cunningham. The Great American Live with You every Sunday Night by Billy Cunningham, The Great American. Thanks for listening this evening, And like many conservative talk radio, I'm going to try to peel back the layers of the onion and let you know the real political positions of Tim Waltz tampon Tim and also Kamala Harris. They run one way, then the rule a completely different way, much as lunchbucket Joe

Biden did from Scranton, PA. He ran as a middle class common American just wanted to do the right thing and take care of take care of those in need. Once he became the president, he completely flipped and he flopped into a completely different situation, which I find unbelievable. He ran one way, but he governed another because he can and the media will not hold him. And for those who say that they can keep piting, many say no, they can't keep pitting. Oh yes they can, Yes they will.

Because what's going to happen, and mark my words on this one. What's going to happen is that sometime after the Convention that Kamala Harris wond go to hold of Robert Acosta of CBS News with that lousy interview he did this morning with Joe Biden, in which he allowed Joe Biden in real time to lie about Donald Trump. Get a hold of a Robert Acosta, maybe Zeka Prazinski, maybe Joe Scarborough, maybe Joy Reid, maybe Oprah Winfrey, and say, you know what I've now did my national media interview.

Let's get back to the trail. And then what's going to occur on September the tenth. There'll be a great debate between the two of them. Whichever one wins, they won't agree to the next debate, and the media is going to quickly declare, guess who won that.

Speaker 4

Guess who won. It's going to be Kamala Harris.

Speaker 3

And then the crowd will begin shouting once again, yay, middle class values, yay, go after Donald Trump.

Speaker 2

Yay.

Speaker 3

Lower gas prices, yay, Hey, lower grocery prices.

Speaker 4

Yeah, we want those two.

Speaker 7

Yay.

Speaker 3

Then all of a sudden, she will take office and all hell is going to break loose. That's what's going to happen. They will be permitted by the mainstream media not to tell you what their policies are, because, after all, you can't know the truth. Because they say you can't handle the truth. Pipelines will be shut down, Big government

will increase, and the DEI will agenda will march. There will be open borders, fifteen or twenty to thirty million more will come in, soft on crime approaches will be a parent. They wake up every day to make sure you don't know the truth. So by not confronting tough media interviews, you won't know the truth. So earlier tonight I had Mark from Missouri Colleen saying, you know what,

what's going to have to happen. Then that means that Donald Trump's going to have to tell the truth, and he will tell the truth.

Speaker 4

Jadie Vance, I know well will tell the truth.

Speaker 3

But ultimately we get the government we deserve, and at times that concerns me greatly. The fact that she's come this far with progressive, liberal, communist ideas is truly unbelievable, and it cannot sustain itself. It will collapse, The country will collapse. We can't go through. We just had a third Obama term. We can't have a fourth and a fifth. All right, thanks for listening. You're a great American too, Bill Cunningham, the great American with you every Sunday night
