He is 85 years old and he is announcing that he is going to run for reelection. How will that go down on the hill? the kingmaker in the 2020 election, remember? Well, the queenmaker, really. Yeah, mean, was the guy. Joe Biden was losing in that primary until Jim Clyburn gave him that big endorsement. So now Jim Clyburn is going to...
00:45
The dude is 85 years old. Let's take a listen to, let's see, do we have some of this? Here we go. Here's a little bit of Clyburn today. can tell you it's not convenient trying to get through airports today. just told you, I just came in from Chicago last night and the line was long. I went to the airport three hours early in order to get here. Yeah, well, if your guys would fund the TSA, Jim Clyburn.
01:15
then maybe they wouldn't be so long. Now remember, this is the same guy, this is the same Jim Clyburn that said he don't know how to get his birth certificate. The password I was blocking on just then, but none other than that. How many people go out, get married, and then square their married name with their birth certificate? And that would be thrown out under that law? Under that law. Yeah.
01:42
So that's what just passed the House of Representatives now needs to get the 60 in the Senate. So I like what Schumer said, dead on arrival. Wow, that's ridiculous. Because the same documentation that women needed to change their name when they got married is the documentation that they would need to do that. But this guy, but here's the real frustrating part for me.
02:05
We had a chance here in South Carolina.
02:11
that we wouldn't even have to worry about Jim Clyburn. We had an opportunity, we had a window of opportunity to actually come in and redraw the congressional districts in South Carolina.
02:26
Congressman Ralph Norman wanted to do that.
02:31
Henry Disaster did not want to do that. Members of our state legislature did not want to do that. They could have done that and have picked up another seat for the Republicans, or at least eliminated one for the Democrats. And that's what they wanted to do. We could have done something about that, but we didn't. Why? Because we are a state that is run by a bunch of people that claim to be Republicans, but are actually Democrats in disguise.
03:03
Anybody that votes, and I won't tell you this, anybody that votes with Gilda Cobb Hunter is a Democrat. She is absolutely, they are a Democrat if they agree with her. You vote with Gilda Cobb Hunter, you vote with Leon Stavronakis, you vote with some of these. you go with the Republicans. You vote with Merle Smith, you're a Democrat.
03:28
in the vast majority of the instances. So we could have done something and never had to worry about Clyburn again. Clyburn's district.
03:38
Listen to this, is the worst district in the nation.
03:46
It is literally the worst district in the nation. That's where the corridor of shame is. And if you don't know what the corridor of shame is, they did a study some years ago about school districts.
03:59
and Jim Clyburn's district schools were the worst in America. They had peeling paint on the wall, had mold, had leaky roofs, they had books that weren't even usable because the pages were stuck together from all the moisture. It was a disaster. Absolute disaster.
04:21
And if you look at his district, this is no joke. When I lived in Charleston, the house I lived in, when we lived downtown on the peninsula, the house I lived in was the only house on the street, the only house on the street that was in Jim Clyburn's district. Everything else was in the first congressional district except for my house. I was so frustrated about that, but I voted against Jim Clyburn. um
04:51
But the way it was cut out, you tell me that's not gerrymandering? One house on a street is in one district, all of its neighbors? Another district? That's crazy. We could have done something about that. But no, no, no, no. Hey, Mike, I see your call. You're an inman, but I'm going to be talking about that story coming up in the next segment. So if you want to hold on, that's fine. If you want to wait until then, but I'm going to be talking about that coming up in the next segment.
05:21
Jim Clyburn says that he was asked to stay on by minority leader Hakeem Jeffries. Well, that's another reason not to like Jim Clyburn. All of these obstructionists we got going on right now, there's going to be a test vote coming up today. They may be doing it right now. um
05:45
reopening the government.
05:50
Opening TSA, opening the Department of Homeland Security. We just had two active shooter situations here in the United States, and the Department of Homeland Security is shut down, by the way. TSA, shut down.
06:07
The Democrats once again are out there trying to say, this is a Republican problem. Well, how is it a Republican problem? Because the Republicans don't agree with us. That makes it a Republican problem. We're voting to shut the government down. The Republicans are voting to keep it open. But because they don't agree with us, we're going to keep it shut down, but it's still going to be their fault. And you know who's going to go along with that, just like they do every single time?
06:36
The mainstream media is going to go along with it. And there is nothing, there is literally nothing wrong with the Save America Act.
06:45
That uh would even do away with mail-in ballots. Mail-in ballots? How can they be so bad? Well, even Jasmine Crockett, even Jasmine Crockett has admitted that mail-in ballots are going to hurt the Democrats.
07:02
Now we've been talking about John Fetterman here and how he is making sense. He's not making much sense today. Maybe somebody picked up the phone and called him. Because he doesn't like the whole mail-in ballot thing. Why not? And they're not really mail-in ballots, they're mail-out ballots.
07:22
That's where these boards of elections, they just mail out ballots to address it.
07:29
two people at addresses. Well, again, one of the homes I bought in Charleston.
07:38
had only two owners, two owners. It was me and the original owner.
07:48
I bet I got mailed for no less than five different people at that address. Five different people. And none of those people had ever lived there.
08:01
No, no they did not. They never lived there. They never lived there, JJ. The people that we bought the house from were the original owners. They saw the two by fours and the sheetrock and all of that going up. They saw it being built. We came in and we bought it. We've got only two people, two families that ever lived in that home. I got mail for no less than five different people.
08:26
I'm like, who is this? This isn't, and you know how that goes. But had they mailed out those ballots, I would have probably gotten ballots for five different people. That would have allowed me to go vote five different times. I gotta do this. Forge a little name on there and you're good to go.
08:46
That's how crazy mail-out ballots are. Now, I don't have a problem with absentee ballots, and the reason is, if you get an absentee ballot or you want an absentee ballot, you're not going to be able to vote for whatever reason, you request an absentee ballot. That ballot is then mailed to you, and then you mail the ballot back. There's always a chain of custody going on there.
09:17
With the mail-out ballots, you have no idea. Nobody requested that ballot. Nobody asked for that ballot to be sent. You see the difference? It's pretty darn big. When we get back, there is a brand new outrage by the folks on the left, and you won't believe what it's about. It's the Charlie James Show, News Talk 98.9, WORD, the voice of the Carolinas.
