Speaker 1: Welcome to another episode of The Chicks on the Right Podcast.
Very excited to have Mark ka host of the Mark
K Saves the Republic podcast, which you already know if
you're one.
Speaker 2: Of his patriots.
Speaker 1: After after twenty years plus of broadcasting, Mark is also
making a run for Congress in Florida's fifth district against
a long time Republican combent, John Rutherford. We're going to
talk about your race in just a second, but we
first want to know all about this conservative.
Speaker 2: AI tool that you have built. Tell us all about it.
Speaker 3: Well, first of all, thank you so much for having me.
You know, we share a lot of the same audience
because every time I pop in and watch your show,
people go, oh, Mark's here, and then I'm like, you know,
I'm on my show and they're like, oh my god,
the Chicks on the Right word chatting about it. Oh,
I know, there's some people watching right now going I
can't believe they're all three together on my screen.
Speaker 2: It's a long time coming.
Speaker 4: It is a long time coming.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it really is. It's exciting and I really appreciate it. No,
the AI is great, as you know, doing a conservative
talk show, there's a lot of stuff and there's a
lot of news, and there's a lot of fake news,
and there's a lot of things that you have to differentiate.
And the big problem isn't deciding what lies are, because
you know what lies are. When you see a headline,
you can go you're lying. The biggest problem people have
is what's missing, the missing context, And that's how the
fake news acts, That's how they manipulate you. They just
leave out stuff, and so they're not really lying to you.
They're telling you the truth, but just not all of it.
And it's impossible to look at a story and know
what's missing, except, of course, if your artificial intelligence, you know,
built by Elon Muskin Silicon Valley somewhere. So I adapted
and built a tool that I started using on my
own show, and I would just put tweets, you know,
like Harry Sissons's latest stupid tweet would go in there,
and Tim Walls's most ridiculous statements would go in there,
and basically New York Times articles, CNN articles, and the
AI was able to go through and put in the
missing context. And so what I did just you know,
it's kind of an added exciting point that I like,
is I took a red pen effect, and now not
only does it tell you what the lie is, but
it crosses it out like my high school teacher used
to do with my mid Trump. I'll show you exactly
what it looks like. And I called it right Pen.
So basically, here's I don't know if you can see this.
This is this is a New York Times article and
it's about the reflecting pool. It says Trump on the
shabby condition of the reflecting pool, not my fault. And
so what you do is you can just like I
can screen grab this, and you can do it on
your phone or your computer. But what I do is
I just screen grab it and then I go over
to the right Pen software and as you can see,
I've loaded it up, and all I have to do
is go one, two, three. Right Pen will analyze it.
It'll cross out the lies, it'll replace it with the truth,
and then it'll tell me what they left out. Watch this, bam.
So now the headline has been changed from Trump on
the shabby condition of the reflecting pool, not my fault,
to a more honest headline, which is Trump on the
ongoing renovation of the reflecting Pool. Biden's neglect and it does.
Speaker 4: That is unbelievable.
Speaker 3: The best part is you can now save this and
you can repost it on the New York Times website.
In fact, I did this with the AP. They did
a totally biased and you know, a propaganda like headline
about a Supreme Court decision. So we clipped it, we
posted it, we called out the AP, and within fifteen
minutes they went back and rewrote the entire headlines.
Speaker 4: Unbelievable. Oh my god. Journalists everywhere their heads are exploding
over this.
Speaker 3: You hate it. We finally we have a we have
a tool to fight back. Look, it also tells you
what they left out. So here's what they left out
of the story.
Speaker 4: God, I love this.
Speaker 3: The sixteen point four million dollar project was authorized to
restore a landmark that had been deteriorating under previous administrations.
The headline uses scare quotes to mock Trump's defense without
presenting the full timeline. It's really it's really really great.
Speaker 1: So can anybody use it? Like, can anybody have access
to it?
Speaker 3: Absolutely? Yes. Now there is a fee, of course, because
you know, just like any tool work, it's built with
groc and there's all kinds of you know, there's all
kinds of If you go in there and you start
charging up you know, credits as they call them in
the AI world. It costs, but you can subscribe. There's
a monthly subscription, there's an annual subscription. The annual subscriptions
gives you about fifty percent. But we've added now video
because people have said, I get all these videos from
my friends and I know that they're wrong, but I
just don't know how they're wrong. And that's one of
the things that I've noticed people they just want to
win debates with their liberal lunatic friends. They go to
Thanksgiving and they their family is going to throw all
this C and N stuff at them, and they need
to know how to fight back. And that's really I
use it for show prep, but everybody else is using
it to win debates, and I love that, So that
is so fantastic. I don't have a feature in there where.
Speaker 4: I could just ask it regular AI questions like the
follow up questions too. If I want to like that.
Speaker 3: Is so funny, you shou mention that that's in version
two right now. There's three things you can do with it.
You can expose a post the way we showed you
with a headline or a tweet. I mentioned Harry System before,
He's one of my favorites to just totally bash me.
Right then you can do any article or video. And
then we also have reply mode. My aunt Angie is
a is just one of the wackiest liberals I've ever met,
and she writes me the craziest, meanest things. It's just
the wildest. So what I did was I built in
what's called reply mode. And in reply mode, you can
just clip a reply from a DM or a text
message and right pen will give you three or four
really snarky replies that you can just send back. But
we are working on something which is what you mentioned,
where you just go on and say, hey, what's the
truth about the reflecting pool, what's the truth about Iran
getting three hundred billion dollars from Donald Trump? What's the
truth about who's paying for the ballroom? And in the
second version of Right Penn, as we're envisioning it, not
only will you get all of the unbiased, non propaganda information,
but you may actually have it read to you in
my voice. So it's almost like I love you. You're
creating your own customized Mark podcast. So that's what.
Speaker 4: That is fantastic. Okay, so that we are super excited
for you for that. That's awesome, that's amazing. Okay, your life.
Why are you running for office? Exactly because we've been
asked that a lot like you guys should run for office,
but you're actually doing it, and you're doing it against
a guy with a lot of money and a lot
of name recognitions.
Speaker 2: So why are you doing this?
Speaker 3: Because we would never you know, I get I asked
myself the same guy as we get closer to primary,
and I'm like, why am I doing this?
Speaker 4: Because your normal mark? You're normal guy?
Speaker 3: Right? That is true? By it. It'd be funny if
you guys ran because you run together as like what
like a tag team? I guess.
Speaker 4: Yeah. We live in different places though, so it'd be
kind of hard. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Well no, I had.
Speaker 1: So.
Speaker 3: I was on the radio four years here in Jacksonville
and nationwide, and our representative is a guy named John Rutherford,
who you know, most people just take for granted. He's
a Republican. He's great, and I did too. I voted
for him the first two times that he ran for
congres But then as I got on the radio and
we started, you know, covering politics every single day. You
start to realize that not all Republicans are the same.
And some Republicans run as Republicans because they want to
get elected, but then when they go to Congress they
start to act like Democrats, which is really bad.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Thomas Massey, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3: So what happens is John Rutherford. We had him. I
don't know if you guys remember when Matt Gates a
he kicked out Kevin McCarthy, a speaker of the House
of Representatives. He vacated the speakership and there was a
big hubbub who's going to be the next speaker And
everybody wanted Jim Jordan from Ohio. Do you guys remember that?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Yes, there was vote after vote after vote, and Jim
Jordan was so close, but he was like eight vote shy.
And we're in the studio and we're watching this over
and over and over going going to who are these
eight clowns who are standing in the way of Jim Jordan,
And when you know it, one of.
Speaker 2: The eight clowns, my gosh.
Speaker 3: He was John Rutherford. So we called him, We called
his office and said can he come on the show?
We want to ask him about this, and it turns
out that John Rutherford was supporting Steve Scalise, not because
he had anything against Jim Jordan, but he hated Matt
Gates and Matt Gates had vacated his buddy Kevin McCarthy,
and Matt Gates was supporting Jim Jordan. So instead of
doing what his constituents wanted him to do, which was
promote Jim Jordan, John Rutherford just stood in the way
and refused to do it, and we called him out. Yeah,
he said to me on the show, he goes, if
I vote for Jim Jordan, then Matt Gates wins Kindergarten.
What are you doing? So I worked with the candidate,
a woman who was running against him the next time around,
and she was unsuccessful, and I went back to her
in February last year. I said, hey, are you going
to run again? She goes, absolutely not, And I said
what and she said, well, the only person that can
beat this guy as an incumbent is someone who's conservative
and has a lot of local name recognition. And I said, well,
who would that be? And she looked at me, she goes,
that would be you. Because I've been in this market
on the radio for two twenty years in some various
different aspect, And so I thought about it, and I
talked to my family about it, and obviously I hit
my head really hard and we decided I was right. Yeah,
it's a lot more difficult than people think, especially when I.
Speaker 4: Imagine, yeah, it's got to be really difficult upill battle
for sure.
Speaker 2: And your primary is what August sometimes.
Speaker 3: August eighteen, Yeah, and it's one of those like we're
deep red, right, So whoever wins the Republican primary, it's over.
It's there's no members of formality here, so you know,
right now I'm the only challenger. There were two other guys,
which I kind of liked because apparently the more people
in the race, the better my chances, but neither one
of them qualified. So I'll be going head to head
with John Rutherford, who, if anybody's in Florida's fifth district,
he votes with the Democrats forty eight percent of the time.
Speaker 4: That is not okay, not all.
Speaker 2: So how how are you going to do this?
Speaker 1: Because like he does have so much money, and you know,
like it's hard to beat an incumbent, So what's I
mean without giving away the game. I guess, like, what
is the strategy? How are you gonna get passed or
overcome the you know, the obvious advantages that he comes with.
Speaker 3: Well, I've been printing off mail in ballots for the
last forty eight hour week.
Speaker 4: Yeah, totally, that's the way to do it.
Speaker 3: We've learned. Yeah, that's the other side. No, you know,
it's interesting because yeah, it's difficult. I do find that
I have a lot of name recognition for being on
the radio in this market, and that's been helpful. The
other thing is that I've learned is the longer someone's
in Congress, the less people actually like them. And so
had I tried this five or six years ago, it
would have been it would have been just ridiculous. But
now that he's been, he you know, because you make
a lot of enemies, you do a lot of things
that take people off. Also, I've found that primary voters,
because keep in mind, this is not the general election.
Donald Trump's not on the ballot. If you're hauling your
cookies out on a random Tuesday in August to vote,
you are a super vote. You're paying attention. And the
people that pay attention they know about his forty eight
percent vote with voting record with the Democrats. They know
that he had one of the worst attendance records last year.
They know about his one hundred and fifty two Stock
Act violations. That's why he's so rich. They know about
all of those things, and they've been tracking, so they're
they're kind of looking around saying, hey, you know what,
it may be time for a change. In fact, I
was at the Republican Executive committe meeting last week and
a lady came up to me and she said, I've
known John for years. His wife and I are great friends.
He's a lovely guy. And I said, Okay, she goes,
but it's time for him to go. I'm voting for you.
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, I love it.
Speaker 3: That's great getting that more and more so we'll see
what happened.
Speaker 1: Can you get like is there or I don't even
know where this district stands, but like, is there a
possibility of getting a Trump endorsement?
Speaker 3: Ah? Fun fact, my opponent has a Trump endorsement, and
that's not all he has going for him. Because if
you go to his website at center Stage, if you
go to his ex post, it's pat you're pinned at
the top. But the Trump endorsement came years ago. And
the other thing we know about Trump endorsements is Donald
Trump actually he doesn't do those. Someone's out there, you know,
going through the list, and his endorsement came sandwiched in
between twenty others at one o'clock in the morning on
Truth Social But the voters, again, the primary voters, they
understand that if you raise enough money for Donald Trump's campaign,
or if you're tied in with the right people, you'll
get that donat or you'll get that recommendation, But it
doesn't necessarily mean that endorsement. For a lot of primary voters,
it's not that exciting anymore. Although Donald Trump has been
on kind of a run, so we'll see what happens.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's why.
Speaker 1: And if it's an old endorsement, I mean maybe there's
a chance.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, and that's I've been telling Like I go
on Facebook every day and I'm like, you know, Donald
Trump endorsed John Rutherford. But John Rutherford just voted to
send five hundred million dollars to NATO, an organization Donald
Trump said should be disbanded. Why if Donald Trump supports him,
does he not support Donald Trump, and there's countless examples
of that. He'll vote against Donald Trump all the time,
but he'll be happy to take the man's endorsement.
Speaker 4: He's got to do a Trump's going to do a
QA chap on the people that he's.
Speaker 3: Yeah, for real, like one three Taylor Greens take it back.
Speaker 4: No, I totally agree. So, speaking of elections, what do
you think about What are you thinking about the mid
terms for us and how it's looking.
Speaker 3: Well, history will tell you that ninety seven percent of
the time the party in power loses power in the
midterm elections, and even with all of the redistricting, it's
going to be it's gonna be tough. I don't think that.
I think that the Republicans are probably a little underwater
and there's a really solid chance that they lose the House.
Having said that, that's why changing candidates on a lot
of races, not just mine, but across the board. What
we need to really do as a party is audit
the candidates. Because we send these people to DC, we
think they're Republicans, but when they're faced with a vicious
and vile and demonic Democrat majority who's hell bent on
one thing and one thing only, and that is impeaching
President Donald Trump. You can't have milk toast middle of
the range Republicans. You need hard core, loud, obnoxious fighters
and so true. That's why, and I'm all of those.
I'm loud of you know. You need somebody who's going
to push back. And I think that's why a lot
of people are really, I hope, seriously looking not just
at the party of their candidate, but the candidates record themselves,
and record is so important in these things.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So, do you have a favorite when it comes
to twenty twenty eight, because there's obviously JD is sort
of expected, but we have been kind of on the
side of wish and Marco would kind of step up.
Speaker 2: We're just where, Yeah, where do you stand on that?
Speaker 3: You know, it's funny because I just thought I was
talking to My wife has always loved Marco Rubio. She
voted for him back in twenty sixteen, and I laughed
at her, which I was was apparently rude, but video,
Oh my goodness, you're voting for little Marco. Yeah. But Mark,
he's a superstar, amazing. Yeah, I think day he'll be president.
Here's the thing, it'd be just rude to piggyback or
to leapfrog the vice president. You know, we elected JD.
Vance to be president. If anything, if for whatever reason,
Donald Trump can no longer serve as president, we said JD.
Vance should step in. Well, in twenty twenty eight, Donald
Trump will no longer be able to be president because
he'll be term limited out or twenty twenty nine. And
JD you know, unless he does something really drastically bad.
I don't has disproven to me that he hasn't done
anything that you know, proves me he couldn't handle it.
I would love to see Mark Rubio as vice president.
You know, I think it weakens the party too if
we say, hey, we're gonna we're gonna leap over JD.
Vance and we're gonna bring in Mark Rubio. I don't
know that that's in the party's best interest either.
Speaker 2: But we're kind of hoping that JD just decides to be.
Speaker 3: Gone, to go back to Latcha and open a still
or something like that.
Speaker 4: Just or just help raise this four kids, you know,
like just go in the private sector or something like that.
But so you would so JD President Marco Rubio vice
president ticket is what you think will probably happen.
Speaker 3: I would love that, And I really think Mark Rubio
would boost JD chance. JD's chances. And then think about this,
Mark Rubio, after being vice president for eight years, could
then go be an amazing prey. He'll be lift like
fifty five or something like that. Yeah, still be president.
So I like a deep bench. You know, I don't
want to I don't want to trade any players or
cut any players, and we need to cut before it's
two time. But uh, but again, you know, either one
of them is a fantastic.
Speaker 4: Well, we have a definite better bench than the left
because they just have a bunch of freaking hobbies on
that time just loser comedis just and I look at
those people like the Gavin Newsom's who how can people
not see how completely inect this guy is.
Speaker 3: Yeah, podcaster Gavin Newsom, part time governors California.
Speaker 2: Is going to be him? Or is it going to
be Kamala again?
Speaker 3: The last poll I saw had Kamala beating Gavin Newsom, Which,
how do you not throw yourself into the Grand canyon
if you're Gavin new someone you're getting beaten by comic
it's just don't forget this guy. Was almost there. I mean,
there was a recall election, and if it weren't California,
he probably would have been recalled. But of course everyone's
forgotten that by now. I've seen walls peak Booty Judges
up there. It's just the guy from Kentucky, Andy Basher.
I don't know. They don't really have any palatable superstars.
I think they could win natally, so that's good, but
it will be it will be a lot of fun
to watch. It'll be like watching The Little Giants when
kids that could do the asthmin hailer and then the
you know, the other girl rolls up and they're trying
to beat the big Dallas Cowboys team. It should be lost.
Speaker 4: Yeah, their side is definitely like a bad sitcom, you know.
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, it is going to be something to watch.
Speaker 1: So how can people tune into your show and then
also get their hands on this cool app that you've created?
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, well, right pen is available at rightpen dot ai.
Oh pardon me, rightpenn dot a I R I g
h T p e e n dot ai And you
can go there now and you can access it anytime
you want. It's like having the truth. You just like
having this show but twenty four to seven, and then
my podcast is everywhere. It's just Mark k Saves the Republic.
You can go to mark k dot com at a
r k k y dot com and I go live
every day. We have a morning news podcast called The
forty seven Daily where we just talk about stuff going
on from the White House without the spin, you know,
when we're always popping up, you know, you know how
it is constant content reels.
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's never a lack Oh my goodness, never, No.
Speaker 1: There's never a lack of stuff to talk about. Well,
I'm so glad that we finally did this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, great to have you.
Speaker 1: Super appreciate it, and best of luck with your campaign,
with the app, with all of it.
Speaker 3: Well, thank you. Yeah. Well, now I have to have
both of you on my show.
Speaker 2: We love it. It would be great, but.
Speaker 3: I want to do it separately, like when they're questioning criminals,
Like I want to have one of you and ask
you the questions and then the other one and we'll
do that together. Yeah, do that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, thanks so much, Mark, Thank you, ladies,
