Welcome to the Core
0:02
Principles podcast. Thank you
0:04
for tuning in and
0:06
we hope you'll enjoy
0:08
this lively discussion of
0:11
relevant topics which we
0:13
attempt to examine through
0:15
the lens of unchanging
0:17
objective truth. Here's the
0:19
host of the Core Principles
0:22
podcast Clay Howardin.
0:24
Thank you Suzanne. Today on
0:27
core principles we're going to
0:29
look at the presidential election
0:31
of 2024, President Trump won
0:34
again, and some people seem to
0:36
have been surprised by that. I
0:38
predicted well before election day
0:40
that the electoral map would show
0:43
313 electoral votes for President Trump,
0:45
and I was wrong by one
0:47
vote. I thought Omaha Nebraska
0:50
would go for President
0:52
Trump, but they didn't.
0:54
Otherwise my predicted map.
0:56
was completely accurate. How did
0:58
I do that? Well, I assure you
1:00
it is absolutely not because
1:03
I possess any special
1:05
insight or intellect. But
1:07
I should credit the
1:09
legacy or corporate media
1:11
for my success in being
1:14
relatively well-informed lately. It was
1:16
four years ago, on the
1:19
day after the election of
1:21
2020, that I turned off
1:23
the corporate media. and I have
1:25
been better informed ever since I
1:27
did that. Hollywood actor Denzel
1:30
Washington made a wise observation that
1:32
summarizes how that's possible. He said,
1:34
people tell you if you don't
1:37
read the paper or watch the
1:39
news, then you're uninformed. But I
1:41
say if you do read the
1:44
paper and watch the news, then
1:46
you are misinformed. That's a paraphrase,
1:48
but it's completely true
1:50
and relevant. Corporate
1:53
media lies all the time.
1:55
I've had to become
1:58
my own news editor. and
2:00
to do so I've had
2:02
to find trustworthy sources to
2:05
follow who point me to
2:07
relevant factual information about many
2:10
topics. Some of those people
2:12
include Molly Hemingway, Laura Logan,
2:15
Cheryl Akkison, James O'Keefe, and
2:17
others. By the way if
2:20
it seems like there are
2:22
a disproportionate number of women
2:25
doing actual true journalism that
2:27
is a valid observation. Almost
2:29
all... The women journalists who
2:32
do actual journalism used to
2:34
work for corporate media, but
2:37
they got fired for doing
2:39
actual journalism. Fortunately, Elon Musk's
2:42
social media platform X makes
2:44
it possible for those journalists
2:47
to be published and have
2:49
greater reach than the corporate
2:51
media did. Speaking of Elon
2:54
Musk's platform called X. We
2:56
should thank him for buying
2:59
Twitter and curtailing the censorship
3:01
that leftists had imposed. Free
3:04
speech was essential in President
3:06
Trump's overwhelming victory. Truth won
3:09
over the leftist lies. Among
3:12
the biggest lies that leftists
3:14
must maintain is that the
3:17
2020 election was legitimate and
3:19
that Joe Biden actually got
3:21
81 million votes that year.
3:24
Most people have noticed that
3:26
such a vote tally seems
3:28
odd, given the voting trends
3:31
every other presidential election. And
3:33
today I will address that
3:36
anomaly. But for Democrats and
3:38
leftists and leftists, It is
3:40
essential that their lives about
3:43
the 2020 election and their
3:45
lives about the activities of
3:47
January 6th 2021 be maintained
3:50
as somehow representative of true
3:52
reality. I have proven on
3:55
this program that the 2020
3:57
election was nothing like Democrats
3:59
claim and that January 6th
4:02
was nothing like Democrats claim,
4:04
but they will persist in
4:06
pushing their lives because so
4:09
much of their wicked behavior
4:11
gets exposed when the truth
4:14
is known. Before I dive
4:16
into the question about where
4:18
the supposed when they obviously
4:21
didn't vote for Kamala, I
4:23
want to share a message
4:25
written by General Michael Flynn
4:28
on behalf of all who
4:30
love America. Quote, Democrats, if
4:33
you're wondering why America voted
4:35
for Trump, allow me to
4:37
explain. The truth is, the
4:40
American people are sick of
4:42
your nonsense. You ruined our
4:44
nation and our culture. You
4:47
openly mocked, belittled, and discriminated
4:49
against us, called us racist,
4:52
misogynist, Nazis, when we started
4:54
noticing what you were doing.
4:56
You defiled and corrupted all
4:59
of our great institutions, including
5:01
media, social media, tech, academia,
5:03
intelligence, health, pharma, Hollywood, entertainment,
5:06
sports, just everything. You weaponized
5:08
every aspect of American life.
5:11
and used it to push
5:13
your insane far left Virginia
5:15
down our throats. You told
5:18
us Trump was a Russian
5:20
asset that was going to
5:22
start World War III and
5:25
be worse than Hitler. Then
5:27
you used that as an
5:30
excuse to justify hatred towards
5:32
Trump supporters and to riot
5:34
in the streets. You used
5:37
it as an excuse to
5:39
obstruct and ruin Trump's entire
5:41
first term and turns out
5:44
it was all a lie.
5:46
Then during COVID, you demanded
5:49
we all be forced to
5:51
take medical experimentation without testing.
5:53
You wanted the centers locked
5:56
in prison. You wanted children
5:58
taken away from anti-vax parents.
6:00
You wanted anti-vax people put
6:03
into camps. You were rooting
6:05
for our deaths. And it
6:08
turns out, you were wrong
6:10
about everything. From the man-made
6:12
origin, to the masks, to
6:15
the vaccines, to the social
6:17
distancing, to iromectin, to hydroxychloricrin,
6:19
to natural immunity, and everything
6:22
else. Then during Ukraine you
6:24
told us Ukraine was a
6:27
bastion of democracy and they
6:29
desperately needed all of our
6:31
tax dollars Turns out Ukraine
6:34
is one of the most
6:36
corrupt nations in the world
6:39
with literal Nazi military forces
6:41
And it was actually just
6:43
a money laundering operation to
6:46
steal from the American taxpayer
6:48
You wanted to defend Ukraine's
6:50
border more than our own
6:53
You sent hundreds of billions
6:55
of dollars to the other
6:58
side of the planet while
7:00
Americans are suffering all based
7:02
on more lies. Then there's
7:05
the whole Epstein-Diddy human trafficking
7:07
element. You told us vehemently
7:09
human trafficking was a myth.
7:12
You told us the border
7:14
was secure. You told us
7:17
anyone who questioned it was
7:19
irredeemable, deplorable, conspiracy theorist and
7:21
garbage. You said, anyone who
7:24
watched Sound of Freedom was
7:26
a Q-Anon extremist and a
7:28
threat to democracy. Turns out,
7:31
we were correct about everything,
7:33
and the elites really are
7:36
engaged in unspeakable crimes against
7:38
children. After you all told
7:40
us for decades, this was
7:43
not true. You covered up
7:45
the most heinous crimes imaginable
7:47
for your own political gain.
7:51
I could do this for days, but
7:53
you get the point. The American people
7:55
are awake to the scam and the
7:58
true evil going on around us. And
8:00
we are not going to stand
8:03
for it anymore. So we
8:05
hired Donald J. Trump and
8:07
his team of patriots
8:09
to rectify the situation
8:12
and bring America back
8:14
to her greatness. This
8:16
is the reality of
8:18
the situation. You are the
8:20
bad guys and you have been
8:22
deceived. The sooner you wake
8:24
up to it, the sooner you
8:26
can join us in repairing this
8:29
nation. You can choose
8:31
to deny reality and
8:33
spend the rest of
8:35
your lives consumed by hate
8:38
based on your own lies.
8:40
The choice is yours, signed
8:42
a true American patriot,
8:45
end quote. Now let's
8:47
look at the results
8:49
of the 2024 election
8:52
and consider the question,
8:54
where did all the votes
8:56
go? In rough, round
8:58
numbers, The total number
9:01
of votes in the
9:03
recent presidential
9:06
elections looked like
9:08
this. In 2000, there
9:10
were about 104 million
9:13
votes cast. In 2004,
9:15
about 121 million.
9:18
In 2008, about 129
9:20
million. In 2012,
9:22
about 127 million.
9:24
In 2016, about 129
9:27
million. there were about
9:29
146 million votes. That's
9:32
a remarkable increase
9:34
in votes from eight years
9:36
ago, but it is nothing
9:39
compared to the claim made
9:41
about the 2020 election, which
9:44
you noticed I skipped over.
9:46
And that claim was that
9:49
there were 156 million votes
9:51
cast, of which Joe Biden
9:54
got 81 million. Since
9:56
Kamala got 71 million votes
9:58
and Obama had... stopped out
10:01
at 69 million votes
10:03
and the claim for
10:05
2020 was that it
10:07
had 27 million more
10:09
votes cast than its
10:11
prior election and even
10:13
10 million more than
10:15
its subsequent election. Many
10:18
people reasonably wonder where
10:20
did all those votes
10:22
from 2020 go? How
10:24
did they disappear? Well,
10:26
they didn't disappear. They
10:28
never existed. Consider
10:31
these facts. Joe Biden
10:33
won only 524 counties
10:35
in all of America
10:38
in 2020, and that's
10:40
only 16.7% of all
10:42
the counties. President Trump
10:44
won the other 83.3%
10:47
of the counties in
10:49
2020. Well, Biden defenders
10:51
would say. The county's
10:53
Biden won contained the
10:56
biggest cities, and so
10:58
his vote totals could
11:00
still be as high
11:02
as claimed. Fair point,
11:05
but a provably false
11:07
conclusion. Joe Biden got
11:09
fewer votes in 2020
11:11
than Hillary Clinton had
11:14
gotten in 2016 in
11:16
every major metropolitan area
11:18
in the United States
11:20
except for these six
11:23
Phoenix Arizona Las Vegas
11:25
Nevada Milwaukee Wisconsin Detroit
11:27
Michigan Philadelphia Pennsylvania and
11:29
Atlanta Georgia What did
11:32
those six cities have
11:34
in common in 2020
11:36
besides being the only
11:38
ones in which Biden
11:41
outperformed Hillary Clinton? Those
11:43
are the six cities
11:45
in which Democrats call
11:47
timeout on election night
11:50
2020. kicked out the
11:52
legally required observers, said
11:54
they wouldn't count any
11:56
votes until everyone returned
11:59
the next morning, and
12:01
then proceeded to add
12:03
so many Biden votes
12:05
that every one of
12:08
their states flipped from
12:10
Trump to Biden overnight.
12:12
We all witnessed that.
12:14
We've been ghastly to
12:17
say that never happened,
12:19
but we saw it
12:21
happen. Those
12:24
added votes overnight, and
12:26
in subsequent days in
12:28
the 2020 election cycle,
12:30
make up the missing
12:32
votes from 2024. They
12:34
never existed. Democrats stole
12:36
the 2020 election. In
12:38
Pennsylvania, Democrats added 1,126,940
12:40
votes. as mail-in ballots
12:42
above and beyond the
12:45
number that the Pennsylvania
12:47
Secretary of State had
12:49
published as having been
12:51
received from voters. They
12:53
never existed. In Detroit,
12:55
Michigan, Democrats added 54,199
12:57
bogus Biden ballots at
12:59
6.31 a.m. in 42
13:01
seconds on the morning
13:03
of 7th of November
13:05
2020. after the fact.
13:08
By that time, the
13:10
Democrats had actually put
13:12
covering over the windows
13:14
of their counting area
13:16
to ensure observers couldn't
13:18
see what was happening.
13:20
They had already been
13:22
trained ahead of time
13:24
to sit with their
13:26
backs to the walls
13:28
within six feet of
13:31
the walls so that
13:33
observers couldn't actually observe
13:35
them because at that
13:37
time in 2020, of
13:39
course, there was a
13:41
six-foot rule as a
13:43
COVID measure. In Atlanta,
13:45
Georgia, Democrats added 107,040
13:47
votes for Biden at
13:49
6.34am and 52nds on
13:52
4th of November. In
13:54
Arizona, Democrats added 100.
13:56
43,100 Biden votes at
13:58
8.06 p.m. in 40
14:00
seconds. This after they
14:02
had forced most election
14:04
day ballots into the
14:06
adjudicated ballots category, thus
14:08
allowing administrators of their
14:10
machines to drag and
14:12
drop results as they
14:15
chose with no regard
14:17
for what the voters
14:19
actually did. And so
14:21
it went. Et cetera,
14:23
et cetera. Those of
14:25
us. who have sounded
14:27
the alarms about this
14:29
since 2020 have been
14:31
labeled election deniers. But
14:33
the truth is Democrats
14:36
are election thieves and
14:38
reality deniers. But in
14:40
spite of the Democrats'
14:42
actions, President Trump defeated
14:44
Kamala Harris overwhelmingly. Why
14:46
didn't the Democrats steal
14:48
this election? Doesn't it
14:50
prove that they never
14:52
stole 2020 after all?
14:54
No, of course it
14:56
does not indicate any
14:59
such thing. The Democrats
15:01
tried to steal the
15:03
2024 election using even
15:05
worse tactics than before.
15:07
The worst way they
15:09
tried to cheat this
15:11
time was to move
15:13
illegal immigrants into swing
15:15
states and permit them
15:17
to vote. Imagine how
15:19
evil that is. Anyone
15:22
suggesting non-citizens should vote
15:24
in a country's elections
15:26
is obviously an enemy
15:28
of that country, guilty
15:30
of capital treason. But
15:32
Democrats did exactly that.
15:34
Why didn't that work?
15:36
Because this time, the
15:38
Republican National Committee fought
15:40
against the fraud before
15:43
election day. after it.
15:45
In 2020, the fight
15:47
over the fraud happened
15:49
after the election and
15:51
courts refused to hear
15:53
any of the evidence.
15:55
By the way, Democrats
15:57
like to claim that
15:59
over 60 judges rule
16:01
that the 2020 election
16:03
was fair. That is
16:06
another lie by the
16:08
Democrats. Zero judges made
16:10
any such ruling. Every
16:12
judge that was asked
16:14
to hear a case
16:16
about 2020 election fraud
16:18
refused, claiming that no
16:20
one had standing to
16:22
bring such a case.
16:24
It wasn't until within
16:26
the past year that
16:29
a judge in Georgia
16:31
finally allowed a plaintiff
16:33
to bring evidence about
16:35
the ability to hack
16:37
voting machines. That judge
16:39
gave that plaintiff five
16:41
minutes to make the
16:43
case. The plaintiff hacked
16:45
the voting machine in
16:47
only three minutes, right
16:50
in front of the
16:52
judge, using only a
16:54
laptop computer. But in
16:56
2024. The RNC brought
16:58
cases to court before
17:00
election day, and the
17:02
courts heard the cases
17:04
and offered relief against
17:06
the Democrats' cheating. By
17:08
the way, this was
17:10
the first election, 2024,
17:13
in which it was
17:15
legal to bet money
17:17
on the election results,
17:19
notably through a group
17:21
called Kalshi. And I
17:23
think that might have
17:25
had a significant impact
17:27
if we had had
17:29
to challenge fraud after
17:31
the fact because of
17:34
the question of standing.
17:36
Judges dismissed all the
17:38
cases before saying there
17:40
was no standing, but
17:42
if people had actually
17:44
bet money and suffered
17:46
material loss over the
17:48
cheating, then they would
17:50
have had standing. Happily,
17:52
we didn't have to
17:54
go down that road
17:57
and see whether that
17:59
would have happened. But
18:01
it was an interesting
18:03
thought once the betting
18:05
markets were open for
18:07
the election. By the
18:09
way, the betting markets
18:11
proved far more accurate
18:13
than the polls, which
18:15
the media uses to
18:17
shape opinion rather than
18:20
reflect opinion. Democrats and
18:22
media, just like Democrats
18:24
in all walks of
18:26
life, lie all the
18:28
time. Still,
18:31
it is apparent that
18:34
lax security for elections
18:36
in certain states aligns
18:38
with the outcomes you'd
18:40
expect. There's almost a
18:42
one-to-one correlation between the
18:44
states that do not
18:47
require voter ID and
18:49
the states that Kamala
18:51
Harris supposedly won. Anyone
18:53
who opposes voter ID
18:55
obviously intends to cheat.
18:58
Anyone too stupid to
19:00
recognize that fact should
19:02
be disqualified to vote.
19:04
States that used to
19:06
be 50-50 toss-ups, such
19:09
as Iowa, Ohio, and
19:11
Florida, are now solid
19:13
red, thanks to simple
19:15
measures like voter ID,
19:17
paper ballots, and cleaning
19:19
up voter rolls. That
19:22
was true in 2022,
19:24
also, by the way,
19:26
when those states actually
19:28
had the red wave.
19:30
that was expected. President
19:33
Trump's overwhelming victory gives
19:35
him a clear mandate
19:37
to do the things
19:39
he campaigned on doing.
19:41
The most important of
19:43
those might be to
19:46
drain the swamp. The
19:48
permanent bureaucracy in DC
19:50
is a totalitarian cancer
19:52
infesting this great nation,
19:54
and it must be
19:57
broken to bits. Liberty
19:59
depends on self-governance. and

independence from central government.
20:03
Have a blessed day. Now it's time
20:05
for our special historical
20:08
segment featuring a practical
20:10
example of how core
20:12
principles are applied. This historical
20:14
example comes from Dr. Paul
20:17
Barkey in his book On
20:19
this day, on November 11, 1918,
20:21
after four years of conflict,
20:23
an armistice was signed ending
20:26
World War I, ending World War
20:28
I, ending World War I. At
20:30
5am that morning, the
20:32
Germans signed the formal
20:35
armistice, and an
20:37
order was given for
20:39
all hostilities to cease
20:42
at 11am on the
20:44
11th day of the 11th
20:46
month. The world rejoiced as
20:48
the war to end all
20:51
wars was over. In
20:53
1927, Congress passed
20:55
a resolution. requesting
20:57
President Coolidge to
20:59
issue a proclamation
21:02
calling on all
21:04
Americans to display
21:06
the flag on November 11.
21:08
But it was not until
21:11
1938 that Congress
21:13
officially designated November
21:16
11 as armistice day.
21:18
The first Veterans Day
21:20
observation was held in
21:23
Emporia Kansas on November
21:25
11, 1953. was instrumental
21:27
in contacting all the
21:30
state governors to
21:32
encourage honoring Veterans
21:34
Day. It was formally
21:36
changed from Armistice Day
21:39
to Veterans Day on May 24,
21:41
1954, by an act of Congress.
21:43
It is important that
21:45
we as a nation honor
21:48
the sacrifices of our veterans.
21:50
George Washington wisely advised
21:53
the nation to honor
21:55
its veterans because, quote,
21:57
the willingness with which
21:59
young people are likely to
22:02
serve in any war will
22:04
be directly proportional to how
22:07
they perceive their veterans of
22:09
earlier wars were treated and
22:11
appreciated by their nation." The
22:14
veteran has been willing to
22:16
make personal sacrifices for the
22:19
good of the nation. It
22:21
is critical that the willingness
22:23
to serve is valued and
22:26
passed from generation. Our liberties
22:28
are always one generation away
22:30
from being lost. There are
22:33
many veterans, particularly from the
22:35
Vietnam War, who do not
22:38
feel that their service and
22:40
sacrifice has been honored by
22:42
the country. It is critical
22:45
for their sense of well-being
22:47
and ours that we convey
22:50
to them our appreciation for
22:52
their service. As Christians... We
22:54
are to live life as
22:57
a living sacrifice. It seems
22:59
to be a contradiction in
23:02
terms, but as we honor
23:04
God with all that we
23:06
are and all that we
23:09
have, this becomes an exercise
23:11
of worship. As we conform
23:13
to him, we will be
23:16
transformed and will live in
23:18
the will of God. Core
