Hello,
0:00
everybody. I'm Lou Dobbs. This is
0:02
the Great America show. Welcome and
0:04
great to have you with us as we celebrate
0:07
truth justice and the American way.
0:09
now two more days before the biggest
0:12
midterms of our times. The
0:14
Marxist dams getting crazier by
0:16
the day Puppet president Biden,
0:19
the crazy and chief, given
0:21
television airtime to attack the
0:23
Republican Party in the final
0:25
week before the elections.
0:27
You think the globalist corporate media
0:29
isn't in on the vast Marxist
0:32
disinformation campaign? Oh,
0:34
yeah. They're definitely compliant. and
0:36
definitely complicit. So
0:39
Biden calls out the Republicans for
0:41
what he claimed was their extremism.
0:44
As if they were the one shipping tens
0:46
of billions of dollars to Ukraine without
0:49
any accounting of the money, who
0:51
received it. What was bought? How much
0:53
is left, if any? Who demanded
0:56
the southern border be turned over to the Mexican
0:58
drug cartels? Who wasn't?
1:00
Who invited six million illegals
1:03
to cross that now unguarded border
1:05
and be flown in the dead of night to
1:07
communities all over the United
1:09
States. Who did that? Who
1:11
has a deal with the cartels to allow
1:14
them to poison millions of
1:16
young Americans with their deadly drugs?
1:18
who's let them kill hundreds of thousands
1:21
of young Americans with their fentanyl
1:23
from China, does anyone the Marxist
1:25
damn party give a damn
1:27
about America and Americans. Certainly
1:30
not our impaired puppet president
1:32
and his Marxist democrats.
1:35
The Democrats are now the party
1:37
from hell, and if the polls are right,
1:39
there will be a reckoning. As
1:41
many as four Democrats senators
1:43
will lose their races, Tuesday, and
1:46
their seats. Almost
1:48
fifty house Democrats could lose
1:50
theirs. and RCP projects
1:53
Republicans will pick up three
1:55
more governorships to add
1:57
to the current twenty four. and we
1:59
have an improved understanding after twenty
2:01
twenty of just how important
2:04
those state secretaries of state
2:06
really are. And by the way, twenty
2:08
seven secretaries of state most
2:11
are responsible for running the elections
2:13
in their states are now Republican.
2:16
And after George Soros poured
2:18
so much money into electing attorneys
2:20
general all around the country,
2:22
More folks are paying attention to those
2:24
critically important races as well,
2:27
and twenty seven states
2:29
have Republican attorneys general.
2:31
and our guest today is working hard
2:33
to raise that number to twenty eight.
2:36
Our guest is attorney Matt DePerno.
2:38
He's running against a Marxist dim
2:40
and come but in the great state of Michigan.
2:43
Matt has the endorsement of President
2:45
Trump and joins us now. Matt,
2:47
first of all, welcome to the Great America
2:49
show great to have you with us, and
2:51
I know you're in a very tight race.
2:54
How does your polling look?
2:57
Thanks
2:57
for having me on, Lou. But
3:00
we are in a statistical heat
3:02
rate now. But over the last six
3:04
weeks, our internals have
3:07
showed us in the lead by
3:10
about four point six points,
3:12
which we think is where these
3:15
bolsters really miss out on
3:17
a lot of Republicans that they can't reach.
3:19
So we feel real good about our race right now.
3:22
Well,
3:22
great. And I
3:24
think your assessment of polling
3:27
right now with the exceptions
3:29
of people like Kahili
3:31
and Trafalgar and McLaughlin
3:34
and McLaughlin group and a
3:36
few others, CBS and and
3:39
Emerson. I I think you're
3:41
exactly right about their polling. You
3:44
know, those are the four the four
3:47
pulsors of class right now
3:49
led by Kahili and McLaughlin.
3:53
Generally, you've been hitting
3:55
hard on this this the
3:57
incumbent attorney general.
3:59
Based on what I have been reading and
4:02
hearing, I mean,
4:03
she's in real trouble. She hasn't she
4:06
seems to be an absolute cross purposes
4:08
with the people in Michigan. Am I wrong?
4:12
No. She absolutely is. She's
4:15
not focusing on the issues
4:18
and the people really matter right care
4:20
about right now in the state of Michigan. You
4:22
know, we have the highest crime rate that
4:24
we've seen in decades. thirty
4:27
percent increase in murders
4:29
since she took office seven
4:32
fifty percent increase in
4:35
the car jacking. the fentanyl
4:37
problem in Michigan is a big, big
4:39
problem, and and she just doesn't wanna
4:41
deal with it. So, you know,
4:43
she's out of touch on that issue. and
4:45
she's out of touch on the education
4:48
issue. We've got parents
4:50
complaining across the state about
4:52
pornography and their school libraries.
4:55
and she comes out and says she wants to put a
4:57
drag queen in every classroom.
5:01
So she is out of touch and these
5:03
are issues that parents care about. and
5:05
we're gonna restore parental rights in
5:07
the state. And so
5:09
the Democrats are just missing these issues
5:11
right now.
5:12
Right? You know, it doesn't surprise me that
5:14
she's not listening. I have to
5:16
say, it does surprise me that in the face of
5:18
that call for greater decency, and
5:21
and a higher level of education she
5:23
insists on drag queens. But
5:26
we shouldn't be surprised because the Marxist
5:29
dims nationwide aren't
5:31
listening to the American voters.
5:33
The party is insisting on their
5:36
constituents and their coalition,
5:38
if you will, the Democratic Party, they're
5:41
demanding that they follow
5:43
the Marxist agenda of
5:45
the of the party from
5:47
Washington DC But
5:49
in state by state,
5:51
as you say it, damn simply
5:53
not listening to Michigan voters,
5:55
and they're cramming their agenda down the
5:57
throats of everyone. It isn't
5:59
happening just in Michigan.
6:01
Where in the world is this
6:04
going to end with
6:06
these Marxist depths?
6:09
Well, it's I think it's gonna end
6:11
in this election in large part.
6:13
And and we see this really
6:17
coming to light in
6:19
Dearborn, Michigan. I've
6:21
been working in Dearborn, Michigan
6:23
now for a couple months getting in,
6:25
meeting with people, building relationships. And
6:28
and these are, you know, deeply religious
6:31
people. largely
6:33
Muslim that have voted for
6:37
Democrats for going on twenty
6:39
years now. some Cal Danes
6:41
in that community, but they're
6:43
tired of what they're seeing in their schools.
6:46
Dana Nestle has tried to shut down
6:48
churches over the last two years.
6:51
She's trying to cancel contracts with
6:54
religious organizations. Federal
6:57
Court has told Dana Nestle
7:00
stop weaponizing your
7:02
office against people with deeply held
7:04
religious beliefs, but
7:06
Dana continues to attack them. And
7:08
now with this pornography
7:11
issue in the school,
7:13
she continues to side with the Department
7:15
of Education. And really what
7:17
they wanna do is they wanna divide
7:19
parents and children. Listen,
7:21
Hillary Clinton wrote a book about
7:23
it many years ago said
7:26
it takes a village to raise our children.
7:29
That's what the Democrats are trying to push
7:31
right now Critical race
7:33
theory divides parents and children. If they
7:35
can separate the parents from their
7:37
children, then they can
7:40
indoctornado, much more easy? Yeah.
7:43
I know you're strong on the issue of parental
7:45
rights, asserting parental rights,
7:48
those parents should be
7:50
in charge of the schools, not the
7:52
two largest teachers unions in the
7:54
country, which have frankly
7:57
just devastated a
7:59
whole year of
8:02
young people's education. and
8:04
hopefully they can have that repaired.
8:07
It's a very tough chore to do so as you
8:09
know. But without strong parental
8:11
rights, The Marks to
8:13
Slab takes over our schools. In
8:15
some cases, they've done so. So I am
8:17
delighted that you're that you're caring
8:20
that message to to the
8:22
folks in Michigan. The
8:24
the idea that those churches
8:28
they churches, synagogues, mosque,
8:30
you name it. They should all be
8:33
supporting you. Are they?
8:35
They
8:35
are right now. We're we're getting a lot
8:37
of support from these groups that
8:40
have historically voted
8:42
democrats and
8:44
it's because they're waking up now to
8:46
the idea that they're
8:48
losing their parental rights
8:50
and they see it happening right in
8:52
front of with school board meetings.
8:55
When when they go to school board meetings and
8:57
express their opinion, a day in a
8:59
nestle along, you know,
9:01
is locks up with Merrick Garland,
9:03
literally has called parents
9:06
domestic terrorists, and they're
9:09
upset about that. And not only that, but
9:11
we have a state law in Michigan
9:13
that clearly states that
9:15
parents have a fundamental right
9:18
to direct their children's
9:20
education. Dana Nessel
9:22
and the rest of these Democrats want to
9:24
ignore it And, you
9:26
know, Obama just came to the state of Michigan
9:28
last weekend to rally
9:30
with the democrats and One of the
9:32
people they brought out was the director of
9:34
the Michigan Department of Education who
9:37
sat up there in just in a very tone
9:39
deaf fashion you know, screamed
9:41
at everyone in the state telling
9:44
them that it's the schools
9:46
that have the right
9:48
to dictate people's education,
9:50
and parents have no rights
9:52
at all. And this is
9:55
very tone deaf at this point in the election.
9:57
sex
9:58
education, gender assignment
10:01
on elementary school children. I
10:03
mean, it's just outrageous. I'm so glad you're
10:05
doing some think about it that you're
10:07
going to get something done. And,
10:09
Matt, I wanna talk about the other issue here,
10:11
and you mentioned it, fentanyl,
10:14
It's just crossing the border.
10:16
The the
10:18
Mexican drug cartels in
10:20
league with the communist party of China,
10:23
the CCP is
10:26
exporting. Fentanyl, the
10:28
ingredients necessary to build
10:30
it. They're shipping scientists into
10:32
Mexico to they actually
10:34
manufacture it, and then the
10:36
cartels make a fortune shipping it
10:38
in to the United States where they
10:40
they killed last year. The estimate
10:42
is a hundred and seven thousand Americans.
10:44
You and I both know it's
10:46
a lot higher than that. somebody
10:48
has to stand stand up and
10:51
amongst those are state's attorneys
10:53
general to start protecting
10:55
their
10:55
there state
10:56
citizens.
10:59
Absolutely. And we got several,
11:01
you know, border
11:03
crossings to Canada in
11:05
Michigan. We also
11:07
have the southern border of
11:09
Michigan that runs with
11:12
Indiana, Ono, and Ohio. And,
11:14
you know, we have an attorney
11:17
general who's too much of a coward
11:19
to stand up to these Mexican
11:21
drug cartels Because in
11:23
order to do that, she'd first have to admit that
11:25
there is a border crisis.
11:27
She refuses to do it. She got
11:29
an open immigration policy.
11:31
But more importantly, she's got a
11:33
defund the police policy, and
11:35
she's got more police under investigation
11:37
right now in this state than
11:39
any time in the state's history. We
11:41
have police officers who
11:43
are just they're tired of the constant
11:45
investigations and harassment They
11:47
can't do their job. They're underfunded. They
11:50
don't have the the counseling services
11:52
they need. And it's all because
11:54
of a very hostile relationship
11:58
that the attorney general creates. She
12:00
just doesn't like police. You
12:02
know, that's
12:02
quite a statement. The highest law
12:05
enforcement officer in the state of
12:07
Michigan doesn't like police. Are
12:10
the police unions the sheriff's
12:12
associations, are they supporting you?
12:15
No.
12:15
No. The the the
12:18
union supports her, but the sheriff's
12:20
themselves support me. So
12:22
Dana Nestle just came out about a
12:24
week and a half ago. Finally, with her
12:26
endorsements list of
12:28
shirts in the state. We have eighty
12:30
three counties The best she could do
12:32
was get five counties sheriffs
12:35
to support her, all the
12:37
most radical counties in
12:39
the state. the rest of them
12:41
have abandoned her. But, sure, she
12:43
still has the union. Right? But not
12:45
the actual rank and file.
12:47
They don't like her. I've talked to many
12:49
of them about the way she handles
12:51
her office. They all say
12:53
she's entirely hostile
12:55
to them. they don't feel
12:57
safe working for her, and they
12:59
wanna change.
13:01
Well, safety is a very important
13:03
element of everyone's life in
13:05
America. The teachers
13:08
make our children feel unsafe.
13:10
They are unsafe in the hands
13:12
of many of those radical teachers
13:14
who are indoctrinating rather than
13:16
educating in our schools. Your
13:19
your ideas about parental rights and
13:21
returning control of those
13:23
schools. Our public schools are the
13:25
great equalizers in this society.
13:27
We don't need a bunch
13:29
of
13:30
perverse left wing
13:33
activists in the
13:35
classrooms. We need great teachers
13:37
teaching great young people how
13:40
to realize their potential and helping
13:42
them do so. And I'm so glad
13:44
to hear you putting those those
13:47
primary issues forward
13:50
as your priorities. I I want
13:52
to say, you know, we always give
13:54
our guests the last word
13:56
here on the Great America show, Matt.
13:59
Give us your concluding thoughts as you go
14:01
into this into
14:03
this final final these
14:05
final days of this election,
14:07
if you will, please,
14:09
sir. Yeah.
14:09
So the, you know, the The deal
14:12
we've always had with the teachers and the teachers
14:14
union has been, we send
14:16
our kids to a
14:18
school in the day and they're
14:20
supposed to teach him math,
14:22
reading science, things like that.
14:25
And we want our children back
14:27
in the evening so that we can parent
14:29
them. that's not up to the
14:31
school. And that's
14:33
where the take off is being attempted
14:35
right now by the teachers union. They
14:37
know that if they can get a hold of our children
14:39
at a young age now, they can
14:41
indoctrinate them, they can divide
14:43
the family and destroy the
14:45
nuclear family. And I think that's
14:47
ultimately the goal of these
14:49
cultural marxists. And that's why
14:51
this election is so important. We have
14:53
to beat them We're gonna
14:55
do it on Tuesday. We're
14:57
running ahead right now, and we just need
14:59
every Republican out there in the state
15:01
of Michigan to come out cast
15:03
or val ballot for me. And
15:05
we've also met we've made a great
15:07
headway with the independents,
15:09
soft Democrats because
15:11
people know whether you're an
15:13
independent republican or democrat, what we
15:15
really care about is
15:17
safe cities. We
15:19
wanna eliminate inflation, bring
15:21
it down, lower gas prices.
15:24
We want to support our police and
15:26
fix our education system
15:28
and that's a message that resonates
15:30
with everyone regardless of
15:32
political party. Well,
15:34
I've known you for a while. I
15:36
know how important electoral integrity is
15:39
to you. I know what
15:40
a an idealist you
15:42
are and what a great attorney
15:44
general you'll make. I want to
15:46
say, I I am so
15:48
delighted for you. III
15:50
wish you all the very best. We're
15:52
pulling for you. Folks all over
15:54
the country are pulling for Matt DePerno,
15:56
and I hope the people of Michigan
15:59
know how fortunate
15:59
they would be to have you as their attorney
16:02
general. Back to Pernod.
16:04

16:06
America show and
16:07
good luck Tuesday.
