0:00

So I'm just gonna jump right into it, because

0:02

we have carry Lake today. She's awesome.

0:04

She's been taking in the media to task

0:07

and we love to see it. And what's really cool is

0:09

that everywhere she goes she wears a Leavelier mike

0:11

that's attached to her and her husband films.

0:14

And the reason why this is so good is we get

0:16

to see the other side of these

0:18

conversations with the media, because what we

0:20

all know that the media likes to do is

0:22

they take things out of context. They

0:24

try to make you, you know, look bad.

0:27

They try to make it look like you said something

0:29

you didn't and they're certainly certainly

0:32

not going to show when you take

0:34

them to task, they're going to edit that part out. So

0:36

by doing this, we all get a full

0:39

insight and full look into one how

0:41

the media operates and then to how Carry

0:43

Lake can handle them. Listen to this. Hi,

0:47

Harry Hie, you

0:50

don't have a mask on anymore?

0:54

What we're six apart? Do you have a minute

0:56

to chat? Um? I'll do an interview as

0:58

long as it airs on CNN and plus still

1:01

exists. I didn't think so because the people don't

1:03

like what you guys are peddling, which is propaganda.

1:06

Thank you that hold are you? Are

1:09

you journalists? Well

1:11

you did better research than have these people. Um,

1:14

let's talk about election deniers. Here's

1:17

a hundred and fifty examples of Democrats

1:19

denying election results.

1:22

Oh wow, look at this. This is from

1:25

This is from Joe Biden's press

1:27

secretary. Reminder Brian

1:29

kemp stold the gubernatorial election from

1:31

Georgians and Stacy Abrams Democrats

1:34

saying that is that an election denier? This

1:36

was the real news yesterday that none of you wanted

1:38

to cover where eleven points up. You're

1:41

in a frenzied panic because

1:43

your chosen candidate is not winning.

1:46

You didn't want to cover this, so you had to run with

1:48

a completely garbage, bullshit story.

1:51

Shame on each and every one of you. Shame

1:53

on you. And it looks like that boldness will

1:55

be rewarded. She's up by as much as eleven

1:57

points in the general election against Katie

2:00

Oobs. It looks like she will win this

2:02

race. And Katie Hobbs won't even debate

2:04

her, which really speaks to what a coward

2:06

Katie Hobbs is, but also speaks

2:09

to Carry Lake as a candidate that her opponent

2:11

is so afraid of her that she

2:13

won't even go on stage and and be

2:15

on a stage with her. But what I like the most

2:17

about carry Lake, and what I respect the most

2:19

about her, is the fact that she resigned

2:22

from a cushy job. She resigned

2:24

from being a lead anchor on Phoenix's

2:27

Fox ten, where she worked for twenty

2:29

two years, because

2:32

she became disillusioned with

2:34

the media's coverage of COVID, because she felt

2:36

like the media was pushing propaganda.

2:39

And as someone who has obviously covered a lot of these

2:41

issues surrounding COVID very closely and

2:43

it's been a passion of mine, I really respect

2:45

that it takes a lot of guts to step away

2:47

from something that you're so good at that

2:49

she clearly loved. I truly believe she's running

2:52

for the right reasons. I truly believe that she will be a

2:54

disrupter and that she is fighting to change

2:56

the system. And that's what we need right now. When

2:58

we have a government, whether it's the our old government,

3:00

whether it's you know, state governments, and in so

3:02

many states, not here in Florida because we have Governor to

3:04

Santis, but in so

3:06

many aspects of government. We don't have leaders.

3:09

We don't have people who are bold, we don't

3:11

have people who are standing up for what is right. We

3:13

have too many cowards, and Carry Lake is not

3:15

one. I hope you love this conversation I

3:17

had with Carry Lake. I know I did Carry

3:30

Lakes an honor to have you on the show. You're

3:33

bold when we need more bold leaders. So

3:35

I just I respect and appreciate what you're

3:37

doing. So thank you. Oh my goodness,

3:39

well, thank you. I'm happy to be on with you,

3:41

and I'm a fan of yours. And we're just

3:44

out here doing what every

3:46

American who would be in my position

3:48

should do, fighting for the people. And I think

3:51

we're doing great because we have a movement and we're

3:53

up in the polls, and we're

3:55

just gonna keep working hard up until November

3:57

nine or November eight, and then beyond Carry.

4:00

I really, I deeply respect

4:02

your resigning from your job as a television acre.

4:04

During COVID, I took a lot of arrows for

4:06

not getting vaccinated and questioning lockdowns.

4:09

So what you said really spoke to

4:11

me, and I shared your frustration. Why

4:13

do you think so many elected officials and journalists

4:16

uncritically pushed lockdowns and vaccines.

4:19

That's a good question. I think fear.

4:21

You know, it's hard to stand out at a time

4:24

when when you see what people

4:26

who do stand out and speak against the

4:28

system or what's happening go through

4:30

when you see them being canceled, you know,

4:32

the their social media is taken away. Not that

4:34

that's a big deal, but they're they're embarrassed,

4:37

they're publicly humil humiliated,

4:39

um docks and destroyed.

4:42

And so I think a lot of people were afraid. Also,

4:45

we were uncertain times, and

4:47

people were afraid about losing money

4:49

and not having the ability to feed their family.

4:52

Um. And I think it's just scary

4:55

to be courageous. I mean, I was afraid to walk

4:57

away. I didn't know what was going to be on the other side.

4:59

I certainly never envisioned myself running for office

5:01

and having you know, this much success

5:03

in politics. I walked away

5:06

not knowing if I would be able to,

5:09

um, you know, feed my family. But God

5:11

is amazing and I threw my my life

5:14

into his hands and I knew it was the

5:16

right thing to do. And what's so cool

5:18

about it, least say is I didn't realize that I

5:21

would inspire other people with

5:23

my resignation, I really just put my

5:25

video out to let people know why I was gone,

5:27

so they didn't wonder where I went after covering

5:29

Arizona for twenty seven years. I didn't want them

5:32

saying what happened to carry like And

5:35

that video inspired so many

5:37

people to take bold action in their own

5:39

lives. And so that's what I'm most

5:41

proud of. You know, don't you mentioned? God? Is

5:43

that where your fearlessness comes from? Or where

5:45

does that fearlessness come from? Because you're right, it's it's

5:47

not easy to to be rave in today's

5:50

society. So where does that come from? For you?

5:52

For sure? God? But I think once you

5:54

do something big and bold like that

5:57

and you realize, oh my gosh, I survived that,

5:59

I'm still standing, And when

6:01

you are not motivated by money anymore.

6:04

For many months and years, I

6:06

think I stayed in that field because

6:08

of the money, And when all of a sudden you

6:10

walk away and you're like, I'm not motivated

6:12

by that anymore. You realize that

6:15

what we do in this life and

6:18

with the changes we make for the better,

6:20

are the ones that really are the currency.

6:23

When we get to our our meeting with

6:25

our maker. Um, what is

6:27

the real currency. It's not the money you had in your

6:29

bank. It's not the money you had in your four oh

6:32

one K or your savings. It's

6:34

not how big your house was. It is

6:36

what did you do to make life

6:39

better? What did you do to help people?

6:41

And I think once you get to that point, the

6:44

fearlessness is

6:46

is uh will happen? It

6:48

will come, And You're right, I'm not afraid

6:50

of anything. I just it's such a great

6:52

feeling. It's such a freeing feeling to not

6:55

have fear ruling over and

6:57

speaking of that, and we face a lot of issues

6:59

as a country, inflation, open borders,

7:01

which I know you've spoken very strongly against.

7:04

But we're also becoming a society

7:06

without a moral compass, you know, And we've got the left

7:08

pushing for a borsht up until the moment of birth,

7:11

mutilating children in the name of transgenderism.

7:13

How do we find that moral compass again

7:16

as a society. Well, I've said it

7:18

many times in my speeches I've delivered

7:20

since I got into this race, and you know

7:22

a year and a half ago. We have to bring

7:24

God back into our lives, into

7:26

our society, into our culture, we

7:29

pushed him out, and when

7:31

that happens, you become rudderless.

7:34

Our whole society has

7:36

been sheering for things that are immoral

7:39

and actually frowning upon things that are

7:41

moral and right and righteous, and

7:43

so we need to get things back. And I think there

7:45

is a spiritual battle underway right

7:47

now. I believe that, uh,

7:50

the moral folks out there

7:52

are winning this battle. People are waking up

7:54

and saying, wait a minute. I didn't realize

7:56

that they were teaching our kids that at school. I'm sending

7:58

my precious boy or press just girl off

8:00

to school, and they're trying to tell them

8:02

they can be a different gender. They're filling

8:05

their minds with poison when it comes

8:07

to racial hatred of others. They're

8:09

filling their minds with lies when it comes

8:11

to our country that we love so much,

8:13

that is such an exceptional, amazing country

8:15

that God had a hand in. And I believe

8:18

we really need to get back to God

8:20

and bringing God back in our lives. That will help.

8:23

And you know, I'm a I'm a big admirer

8:25

of Ronald Reagan. He was the president of my

8:27

youth and I love that

8:29

somebody sent me a sound bite or a quote

8:32

from him recently, and it was

8:34

basically that when he was president

8:36

and people brought questions

8:39

or issues to him, you know,

8:41

his staff, he said, never come to

8:43

me and tell me what the political ramifications

8:45

of an issue are, of a problem are. I

8:47

want to make all decisions based

8:49

on what's right and what's wrong. I

8:51

don't want to even think or consider what the political

8:54

ramifications are. And we need to get

8:56

back to that. So many people, when

8:58

they get into politics, how this desire

9:00

to climb the ladder of politics and

9:03

and keep moving up politically. We need

9:05

people who don't want to be in politics. In

9:07

politics, and I think that's what we're seeing right

9:09

now with a lot of these candidates,

9:12

real citizen politicians stepping

9:14

forward and jumping in, reluctant

9:16

politicians jumping in because

9:18

they realize that we have to push these life

9:21

for career politicians out.

9:24

They are the ones who are driving our country into

9:26

a ditch and destroying it. Well,

9:28

and I think you're going to be rewarded for that sort

9:30

of approach because it's obvious, and I

9:32

think Governor De Santis is going to be rewarded

9:34

for that sort of approach as well. Of both of you. Guys

9:37

being bold leaders, you know, not caring

9:39

about the polling, but but just saying and doing

9:41

what is right, which is what we need. So

9:43

I read that Time magazine piece on you, which I

9:45

was actually surprised it was really good. It wasn't really

9:47

a hit piece, so you know, they're there are a bunch

9:49

of lefties, but I thought it was really good about

9:52

you and what you talked about

9:54

as you said that you chose to run for governor because during

9:56

COVID we realized just how big of a

9:58

role governors have in our vives. What

10:01

should Republican governors be doing to

10:03

stand up against a federal government that

10:06

so many Americans fear right now, well,

10:08

we just have to remember our origins.

10:10

It was the states that created the federal government,

10:12

not the other way around. States have sovereignty,

10:15

and we've lost that because we've we've ceded

10:17

so much power and control to the federal government,

10:19

to these agencies that are run by

10:22

career bureaucrats who really

10:24

have no power over us, but we've handed

10:27

them our power. And once you give away that power,

10:29

you've got a fighting claw to get it back. So

10:32

you know, we're we're just going back to the Constitution

10:35

and you know, more federalist way

10:37

of operating, and that's what we need to do. And

10:39

we saw some good governors during COVID.

10:41

I was really impressed with the way Christie Noham handled

10:44

the situation. I'm impressed with

10:47

the Santis. But we have to remember

10:49

who crawled so we could walk, and that was President

10:51

Trump. He was the one who came

10:53

out and worked so hard. Like

10:55

you know, they said, it was a bull in a china shop.

10:58

We needed that. We needed somebody to

11:00

be a bowl in the china shop, somebody who

11:02

had brutal honesty, who was

11:04

brash and could show us what

11:06

was going on and I think shake some

11:08

of us awake. And so we need

11:11

more governors who are willing to fight

11:13

for their state and their people, and

11:15

I think we're seeing that right now with some of the people

11:17

running. I'm really impressed with this crop of

11:20

politicians I hate to even use that word,

11:22

Lisa, of citizens who are running

11:25

to help their state. When I said

11:27

that I decided to run for governor

11:30

because of what we saw during COVID. I

11:32

wasn't going to run for politics at all. And

11:34

when I quit my job, the people of Arizona

11:36

who I covered for twenty seven years, reached out

11:39

in droves and said, would you please consider

11:42

running for office. We need somebody who we trust,

11:45

who understands Arizona, and who

11:47

will fight for us. And at first I kind

11:49

of laughed at the idea. I thought, are you kidding

11:52

me? I'm leaving the world of fake news, the

11:54

corrupt news, and you want me to go into the even

11:56

more corrupt world of politics. But

11:59

I got to think about it and looking

12:01

at the landscape out there, and I thought, if not

12:04

me, then who will do this? Are

12:06

we just going to get another career politician?

12:09

And so I decided to throw my hat into the

12:11

ring. And they were some people were telling me you should run

12:13

for Congress, and I just didn't think

12:15

I would be able to make a big

12:18

difference in Congress. And I thought my name,

12:20

I d my understanding of Arizona,

12:23

I would be best suited to run for governor. I

12:26

think you would hate Congress. To be honest, You're

12:28

I I worked on Capitol Hill. You're ere too much

12:30

of a leader. It would probably drive you crazy. I don't

12:32

think you would like it. And the traveling would

12:34

not be found either, And in Arizona needs

12:37

some strength. Right now, Let's face it, our borders

12:39

wide open. We have handed

12:42

the control, not we. Biden

12:44

and his people handed control of our border

12:46

to the narco terrorists, the cartels.

12:49

And if we don't get a strong governor in Arizona,

12:53

I think it's the most important state right now, we will

12:55

lose our country. We're on the verge with this border

12:57

being wide open and nobody doing anything about

13:00

it. If we don't get someone to jump in there

13:02

and do something, I don't know that

13:04

we can get through two more years before we can

13:06

get Biden out of office. We need

13:08

someone who will go in and take control of

13:10

the border. And that's what we intend to do, starting

13:12

on day one. Quick commercial break back

13:15

with Carrie Lake. I

13:20

do believe November eight this sort of our last

13:22

day and as Americans to try to take

13:24

this country back, clot back from the destruction

13:27

that we have seen. You know, I know

13:29

you are a busy woman. Is there

13:31

anything you'd like to leave us with before

13:33

we go carry? You know, I think as

13:36

scary as times are right now, and I know

13:38

many of us maybe lay awake at night and

13:41

think about what's happening and wonder how do we

13:43

get through this? Just remember

13:45

that God placed each and every

13:47

one of us here for a reason. I don't believe

13:49

God makes mistakes. He gave us

13:51

all a set of skills. And you know, my

13:53

skills are an understanding of Arizona,

13:57

a relationship with the people, the ability to

13:59

communicate, and uh,

14:01

you know, an ability to actually navigate

14:03

politics because I covered it for so long

14:06

and I'm using that skill. But maybe your skill

14:08

is something else, something different. We all

14:10

have a skill to use right now to save our

14:12

country. I'm so pleased with the

14:15

people coming out getting involved

14:17

who have never been involved in politics, and

14:19

now they are rabid. They are

14:21

so excited about getting involved in saving

14:23

their state. Wherever we go, we're drawing huge

14:25

crowds, and I'm not telling you that

14:27

to be boastful. I'm telling you that because Americans

14:31

and Arizonans are ready to take

14:33

back their government. And it's such a beautiful

14:35

thing. It's very much the spirit of seventeen

14:37

seventy six. And I'm so excited

14:40

and so hopeful that even though

14:42

times feel dark, I really do believe

14:44

our best days are ahead of us. And

14:46

I'm not just saying that. I feel it. Something

14:49

big is happening here in Arizona, and

14:51

I'm hoping it's happening in other states as well.

14:53

So don't lose, don't lose hope,

14:56

don't lose heart. We are going to

14:58

do great things and and restore America

15:00

to its great days. I feel it too.

15:02

I've actually I've never been to Arizona, but you kind

15:04

of make me want to go visit. So I feel like I

15:06

need to do that now. We'd

15:09

love to have beautiful down here, That's

15:11

what I hear. Well, you're awesome, carry I appreciate

15:13

your time. I know you're busy. We're rooting

15:15

for you, we're praaring for you, and I really do believe we

15:17

need more leaders like you. So uh, I

15:19

respect you and I appreciate your time. Thank you, Lisa,

15:22

and thanks for having me on. So

15:33

that was Harry Lake running for

15:35

governor in Arizona. She's

15:37

awesome, isn't she. I wish we had more time.

15:39

Look, these candidates are

15:41

crazy right now. I mean they are working

15:44

morning tonight, They're doing you

15:46

know, fifteen events per day,

15:49

media, etcetera. So I wanted to be respectful

15:51

of her schedule as she's out

15:53

trying to earn Arizona vote. So

15:56

appreciate you guys listening to this show. I

15:58
