[applause] we are also one day away from the second attempted assassination of a former president of the united states, and the presidential nominee of one of our two parties, in as many months. and you know, it's pretty incredible, but they claim he is a would-be dictator. that would seek to foment political violence, when they have for years uttered lies and smears and slurs a

ryan ralph. he's still a lot. so there is a chance that we will get answers to many of those questions that i post just a little while ago. but then again, if, if we depend on our and we're going to depend on our trip of journalists in this country here in the good old usa to get those answers, i'm thinking maybe not. maybe we'll never find out. is he, after working and media all of my life in this country, at some of the most well known outlets that exist in this country? i have come to believe. and my experience tells me that those reporters, they don't work for you. they don't work for you, they don't work for me. they're mostly beholden to the government. i mean, here's what i mean. if people in our government don't want you to know about this guy, don't expect that you're going to learn about this guy from cnn or from the new york times ain't going to happen. the days of walter cronkite days of the seymour hersh is out there. they just don't exist anymore. sorry. in fact, you know what i woke up to today? i o

now, let me show and tell you that is ryan ralph. he was arraigned in a federal court monday morning on several charges including gun possession. why did he want to shoot the former president while playing golf? well, by all account, it's because he's obsessed with russia. seems to hate the place hates the country, hates the president, has expressed a desire to blow up the capital. his obsession has even led him to gaze, where apparently he tried to join the military, they're to fight against russia. also recruit others to do so. he's very much out there when it comes to social media platforms using those social media platforms. as best i can tell to attack anybody who has a contrasting opinion. then here's, let me give you an example. here is going after areas going after tulsa galbraith, where he rides, you are an idiot. why don't you go and join brewton and trump, and be there 3rd leg. please leave hawaii. you embarrass me. ah, shut your stupid mouth. he rides. and then he goes on to say that he's going to go and fight and die for
