00:00I believe that this executive order is the farthest reaching executive action taken in

00:22the history of the republic to secure our elections among numerous other aspects of

00:29this executive order.

00:31This is going to cut down on illegal immigrants on the voter rolls, ensure that the Department

00:35of Homeland Security and the data that they have available is being fully weaponized to

00:40ensure that illegal immigrants aren't voting.

00:42This will include a citizenship question on the federal voting form for the first time.

00:47This executive order instructs the EAC to cut federal funding to states that don't take

00:53reasonable steps to secure their election.

00:56This calls on the Department of Justice to vigorously prosecute election crimes, particularly

01:00in states that we don't believe are in compliance with federal law around election integrity.

01:06I could go on and on for a while, sir, but compliance with national election day rules,

01:12cracking down and investigating and prosecuting foreign interference in our elections, revoking

01:17President Biden's executive order 14-019, which essentially weaponized government to

01:42We'll end it, hopefully.

01:43At least, this will go a long way toward ending it.

01:51There are other steps that we will be taking in the next, in the coming weeks, and we think

01:56we'll be able to end up getting fair elections.

02:01Perhaps some people think I shouldn't be complaining because we won in a landslide, but we've got

02:08to straighten out our election.

02:09This country is so sick because of the election, the fake elections and the ban elections,

02:13and we're going to straighten it out one way or the other.

02:23And it's an honor to sign this one, to sign all of them, but to sign this one is a great honor.

03:13Don't miss out.
