00:00Hello. Hello. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
00:10Well, welcome to Elon Musk's Green Bay Town Hall.
00:15And thank you for signing the petition against activist judges.
00:23I mean, this is all about getting out to vote on Tuesday to elect Brad Schimel as the next justice of the Wisconsin Supreme Court.
00:34It's so crucial we do that. You know, I've been traveling around with Brad, by the way, I don't I don't know.
00:44I don't know. And I see Governor Walker here. I know he's a tireless campaigner.
00:48I don't know of any candidate that I've seen in my years now in the business campaign more tirelessly than Brad Schimel.
00:57He's just been phenomenal. He's not doing it for himself.
01:05He's doing it to save the court, to save Wisconsin, to save America.
01:10Let's be honest. So I'm traveling around the bus with him the last couple of days, and then we do what they call press daggles.
01:19And we go up and talk to the press. And every question is about Elon, Elon, Elon, Elon.
01:25Now, I don't know. I don't know about you. I think what Donald Trump and Elon Musk are doing in terms of the Doge movement is brilliant.
01:32What do you guys think? I mean, what what Elon and his group of geniuses is uncovering.
01:45It's just you should outrage every American. You know what? What?
01:50What the government has been spending and wasting our money on. I mean, that should be, like you say, outrageous.
01:59Every American should be outraged by that. But the left isn't.
02:04Instead, they're attacking Elon. They're firebombing his cars and his dealerships.
02:13By the way, where's the outrage to that form of domestic terrorism?
02:18So that's really what this is all about. I mean, we've got we've got leftists that want to impose their ideology on us through the court system.
02:29Right. They don't care who or what they destroy in their quest for power.
02:38We can't let them get away with it. Now, 1.7 million Wisconsinites voted for Donald Trump.
02:45Right. God bless you all for doing that.
02:51If you want Donald Trump to be able to serve four years effectively to do all the things he's doing.
02:59And by the way, I can't believe how boldly and swiftly, decisively he is acting to fulfill his campaign promises.
03:08But you'll notice, you'll notice the activist judges, the radical leftists, the super legislators on the courts are issuing national injunctions against what he's trying to do.
03:24What we wanted him to do, what the people elected him to do. We can't let that continue.
03:30Now, what should happen is, is John Roberts ought to rein those judges in. He ought to take care of his own branch of government.
03:40But what we need to do here in Wisconsin is we need to return our Supreme Court to one that has justices and judges.
03:48And by that, I mean people who will apply the law, not alter it.
03:53But we're not looking for super legislators. Again, it's a real disadvantage conservatives have is, you know, when I vote to confirm a Supreme Court nominee, I know I'm not going to like some of their judgments.
04:05Because they're ruling based on the law, and I don't like some of the laws.
04:10The radical leftists, they know exactly what their judges are going to do, and we know exactly what Susan Crawford would do.
04:16She will overturn Act 10. Governor Walker's signature achievement state, what, billions for Wisconsin taxpayers?
04:24She will redistrict. She'll be part of the group that will redistrict Derek Van Orden and Brian Stiles districts.
04:32We may lose those wonderful members of Congress. We may lose the majority in the House.
04:38And I do not want to be sitting in a third impeachment trial of a president.
04:44That's what we're facing. So we cannot let that happen.
04:48And again, the good news is we've got a person of integrity, Brad Shimmels, working his tail off.
04:53He will be that kind of judge that will uphold the law and return the constitutional balance to Wisconsin and help save America.
05:06So that's what it's all about again. So every one of the 1.7 million Wisconsinites that voted for Donald Trump, you must come out and vote.
05:14If you haven't already voted, come out and vote on Tuesday.
05:20Talk to every friend and family member and neighbor that you know, every email contact, every text contact, get them all out to vote on Tuesday.
05:31There's no reason that we can't have 1.3, 4, 5 million votes and easily win this election.
05:38So that's what you've got to do. Thanks for coming here tonight.
05:41Now, it's my pleasure to introduce a former congressman, another one of our high integrity people who represented us in Congress,
05:49and is now representing us in America as the Secretary of the Department of Transportation, Sean Duffy.
