BACK INDEPENDENTS

“We've witnessed a continuation of hundreds of thousands of h one b visa workers coming here, mostly from India, 70% from India, mostly into tech jobs. At exactly the moment when the same people advocating for those H-1B visas are warning us that entire sectors of our economy are about to go away thanks to AI. So why would you advocate for foreigners to come in and take jobs in a sector that's about to be radically reduced in size?”

“My last vote in Congress, literally, my last vote on the House floor, December 17, was my own bill. And to my complete shock, four Republicans voted no. My bill passed that in the house because God moved three Democrats to vote for it. Four Republicans voted against it even though the entire Republican party campaigned on stopping the trans agenda on children and it was supported by 70% of Americans.”

“It was a year and a half ago this week. It was 10/27/2024 that we all went down to New York City to the Trump rally at Madison Square Garden. And what we were laughing about a minute ago and something I remember very well was a sea of placards of campaign signs in the crowd all provided by the campaign that said, quote, mass deportations now. I remember thinking, well, that's kind of heavy. I don't think I've ever heard any candidate say mass deportations.”

“Independents in America are bigger than the Democrat Party and the Republican Party. Independents are oftentimes over 40%. And if Independents were to come together on a core group of policy issues and candidates that they could fully support, then you could defeat Democrat and Republican candidates. It would be very hard, but it is possible.”

“In Washington, DC, a member of Congress can get can fully fill their campaign coffers with just a few fundraisers in Washington, DC. These Republicans that are flying back and forth to Washington, DC every week, they're away from their family, they're away from the people that elected them. It gets easy to just have a couple of fundraisers where you're getting drunk on cocktails and eating little weenies on a stick or whatever they're serving up there in the Capitol Hill Club.”

“Mike Lawler hated Donald Trump, made fun of him constantly, mimicked him making fun of his voice. He used to attack me, make fun of me, come and find me on the House floor and make fun of me for supporting Donald Trump. Well, I saw this unbelievable change in him, and, of course, it happened after Trump won his primary in 2024. All of a sudden, Mike Lawler I started joking. I started calling him MAGA Mike Lawler because he was all of a sudden, like, becoming Trump's biggest supporter.”

“Look. To be totally honest, if things are so bad, as you say with the white working class, don't you wanna get new Americans in who aren't gonna be I'm serious. You can make a a case that this is going on too long and this is too crazy probably, and I hope this thing isn't being, like, you know, videotaped or ever shown anywhere. Whatever tiny pathetic future I have is gonna be totally collapsing.”

“When I introduced an amendment to defund Israel just last year, this was it hasn't even been a year yet, only five other members of Congress, five out of four thirty five, only five, voted with me to defund American taxpayer dollars going to Israel. So that's your count. There were six of us, including myself. That's your count.”

“Don Bacon: I see you're wearing a cross. You ever read the verses in the New Testament that talk about how you should treat immigrants? Reporter: Yeah. I don't think that means just opening up the country for everyone to come here. Bacon: These people are legal. What do you don't get about that? Amnesty, you are a hardcore anti immigrant person. Wow. But you have please start reading the New Testament every day.”

“It's just a few years ago that Harvard University took the name of Charles Glass off a building because he was a racist. But guess whose name is still there? Not just on a building, but on the building at the entrance of the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard. The Lex Wexner Building. Les Wexner. The guy who bankrolled Epstein? Whatever Epstein was accused of, Wexner probably helped pay for it. And his name is still on the building at Harvard.”
