Speaker 1: Hey, y'all, we're on break and hope you're enjoying the
Speaker 1: holidays too. But just in case you're missing your daily
Speaker 1: dose of The Chicks, we have something special for you.
Speaker 2: We hope you enjoy this replay of one of our
Speaker 2: favorite interviews and make sure to tune in this year
Speaker 2: from some exciting new ones that we have coming up.
Speaker 2: Welcome to another deep dive edition of The Chicks on
Speaker 2: the Right Show. And man, do we ever have a
Speaker 2: treat for everybody. Today we have Carrie Lake, who is
Speaker 2: of course running for governor in the great state of Arizona.
Speaker 2: Carrie Lake, thank you so much for being with us.
Speaker 3: I'm so excited. I feel like I know you too,
Speaker 3: so it's great to be sitting here with you.
Speaker 1: We're delighted to have you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely delighted, and so lots and lots of questions.
Speaker 2: But right out of the gate, we always like to
Speaker 2: get to know people a little bit that we have
Speaker 2: on our show, and we thought a really just an
Speaker 2: interesting part or an interesting story about you that I
Speaker 2: don't actually know.
Speaker 1: I don't know if Daisy knows.
Speaker 2: Is what has has taken you on this journey. And
Speaker 2: it's not a word that We're a huge fan of journey.
Speaker 2: But what is taking you on this journey from media star?
Speaker 2: I mean, you were You've been a broadcaster a journalist
Speaker 2: for years. What took you from that career into the
Speaker 2: world of politics?
Speaker 3: It is, it's such an unlikely, crazy story, to be honest,
Speaker 3: I mean, I never ever envisioned myself running for office.
Speaker 3: My goodness, are you kidding? I was blessed to have
Speaker 3: a twenty seven year career as an honest journalist covering Arizona,
Speaker 3: and my integrity as a journalist allowed me to move
Speaker 3: up the career ladder, and I was the number one
Speaker 3: news anchor in Arizona for twenty two years at the
Speaker 3: Fox affiliate and just blessed beyond belief to be able
Speaker 3: to have that career and talk to the people of
Speaker 3: Arizona every day, get to know the issues that we
Speaker 3: face as a state, in such a beautiful state. I
Speaker 3: grew up in Iowa, the youngest of nine kids and
Speaker 3: had to work hard for everything I had, and so
Speaker 3: I worked hard to work and make it in this career.
Speaker 3: And then during I kind of woke up and went, Wow,
Speaker 3: it's all propaganda. There's no interest in helping people and
Speaker 3: putting out information that will bring us together, that will
Speaker 3: tell us about early treatments. And then the election happened
Speaker 3: and I just felt like it was getting harder and
Speaker 3: harder to maintain that honesty that I had with the
Speaker 3: people of Arizona. So I walked away from my career
Speaker 3: from a huge paycheck. I'd been doing really well, number
Speaker 3: one anchor for twenty two years and one of the
Speaker 3: biggest TV markets. You have a nice paycheck at that point,
Speaker 3: but I just stepped away from it all. I asked
Speaker 3: God to lead me. I said, I know I can't
Speaker 3: do this anymore. It's becoming immoral, and I'm putting my
Speaker 3: life in your hands. And really, for the first time
Speaker 3: in my life, I did that. Even though I'm a
Speaker 3: woman of faith, I always had a little bit of
Speaker 3: control in my life, like if I work hard, I
Speaker 3: can make it happen. And I truly just said God,
Speaker 3: I'm yours, and do with me what you will. And
Speaker 3: I put a video out to the people of Arizona
Speaker 3: letting them know why I was leaving. I didn't want
Speaker 3: them to think I was just resigning to pursue other opportunities,
Speaker 3: and I got thousands upon thousands of messages, and one
Speaker 3: of the common denominators in those messages was an ask
Speaker 3: for me to run for office, which is kind of
Speaker 3: funny because I was leading the corrupt worldy of media
Speaker 3: and they wanted me to go into the even more
Speaker 3: corrupt world of politics. I thought, okay, they must think
Speaker 3: I'm crazy. And at first I thought, oh, hell no,
Speaker 3: I'm never going to do that because we know how
Speaker 3: ugly it is and how terrible it is. But then
Speaker 3: I realized the request for people in Arizona asking me
Speaker 3: to run for office. I thought it was God's way
Speaker 3: of kind of tapping me on the shoulder and saying,
Speaker 3: this is what I opened you up for. And I
Speaker 3: think it was I really do, because from day one
Speaker 3: I didn't even know how to run for office. I
Speaker 3: called the Arizona GOP and I said, how do you
Speaker 3: run for office? It's not something that everyday citizens do,
Speaker 3: but it's something that everyday citizens should do, because if
Speaker 3: you remember, our founding fathers envisioned the real people stepping
Speaker 3: forward to represent their fellow citizens, not I think career politicians.
Speaker 3: They didn't even know what career politicians were. They probably
Speaker 3: would have put something in the constitution banning it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're absolutely right.
Speaker 3: So we jumped into the race the first time that
Speaker 3: I can remember covering Arizona where we've just had a
Speaker 3: real person, a citizen politician, running for office for the
Speaker 3: governor's office. And we from day one have been just soaring.
Speaker 3: It's been amazing. We've got a movement that people are
Speaker 3: so excited. It only took us three weeks to get
Speaker 3: enough signatures to be on the ballot. Typically that takes
Speaker 3: nine months. We did it in three weeks. We didn't
Speaker 3: pay for a single signature, and we have a real
Speaker 3: movement over thirty thousand small donors everyday, people putting twenty
Speaker 3: bucks in fifty one hundred and fifty because they know
Speaker 3: that I am going to be a governor of the people.
Speaker 3: My special interest group is the people of Arizona, and
Speaker 3: we've not had a governor who's truly been on a
Speaker 3: mission to help Arizonas for a long time.
Speaker 1: US awesome. So we we have a lot of people
Speaker 1: that follow us that didn't start out as conservative and
Speaker 1: then they listen to us, they watch us, and they convert.
Speaker 1: You know, we've actually we're kind of proud of that
Speaker 1: because you know, they get to know us, and then
Speaker 1: they're like these these chicks don't suck, you know, and
Speaker 1: hear what we have to say and they're like, Okay,
Speaker 1: this makes a lot of sense. Common sense exactly. Common
Speaker 1: sense makes sense. So we know, I mean, at least
Speaker 1: from what I've read, you didn't start out as a conservative,
Speaker 1: kind of like Ronald Reagan. Ronald Reagan didn't become a
Speaker 1: Republican until he was what fifty one years old? And
Speaker 1: I actually I didn't know that fifty one fifty one
Speaker 1: and I read I read an article about you that
Speaker 1: that actually compared you to Reagan, of all people, who
Speaker 1: is one of my favorites. And there are a lot
Speaker 1: of a lot of things about you, like your Midwest
Speaker 1: upbringing and your media background and how you moved out
Speaker 1: west and you know, you had your pivotal moment, you know,
Speaker 1: how you were like you know, you're all called and
Speaker 1: things like that. So I thought it was interesting that
Speaker 1: the comparison, but how you started out and you weren't
Speaker 1: a conservative to start.
Speaker 3: So what was it?
Speaker 2: That was it?
Speaker 1: Just like how everything has been so crazy in our country?
Speaker 3: Is that what brought me? Ronald Reagan was really a
Speaker 3: childhood hero of mine. I grew up an hour away
Speaker 3: from him, obviously a few decades apart, and he was
Speaker 3: the president of my formative years. He was a president
Speaker 3: from when I was ten until I was eighteen. And
Speaker 3: you know, there's a lot of false information out about me,
Speaker 3: but I have been a registered Republican almost my entire life.
Speaker 3: I registered as a Republican because of Ronald Reagan at
Speaker 3: the age of eighteen, form my very first election that
Speaker 3: I got to vote in. And I've been a registered
Speaker 3: Republican almost my entire life, except for four years when
Speaker 3: I registered as a Democrat and two years when I
Speaker 3: registered as an independent. And I'm currently a registered Republican obviously.
Speaker 3: But during that time between Ronald Reagan and Donald J. Trump,
Speaker 3: we watched as our political leaders, the Democrats and the Republicans,
Speaker 3: kind of morphed into one big swampy Uni party yung.
Speaker 3: And they're attacking me for voting Democrat at a point,
Speaker 3: and my response is, what were our choices? I had
Speaker 3: two babies, one on either hip. My kids are about
Speaker 3: a year and a half apart. I'm watching the Iraq
Speaker 3: war rage on which should have never been started. It
Speaker 3: started on false pretenses, and we were lied to, and
Speaker 3: I'm looking at these two candidates that were given and
Speaker 3: I'm saying, which one will end this war? This endless war?
Speaker 3: And I'd covered John McCain as a journalist here in Arizona,
Speaker 3: and I knew for certain it wasn't going to be him,
Speaker 3: and so I took a chance on a new guy,
Speaker 3: and it didn't work out. It didn't work out well.
Speaker 3: We were excited about first black president. We thought that
Speaker 3: we'd see this country come together, and I do believe
Speaker 3: this country can come together, by the way, but it
Speaker 3: didn't work out. So it's funny, though they have no
Speaker 3: dirt on me, so they try to manufacture all this
Speaker 3: stuff that's completely bonkers. And the funniest thing is my opponent.
Speaker 3: At a moment in our history, Guys, when we're watching
Speaker 3: people wake up by the millions, people are like, oh
Speaker 3: my gosh, they're waking up to the lives of the
Speaker 3: Democrat Party. We've got this ridiculous nursing home patient in
Speaker 3: the White House who can't do anything right, and people
Speaker 3: are waking up to the madness. And I've got my
Speaker 3: opponent who's married to a ninety five year old billionaire
Speaker 3: with the blank check running ads attacking Democrats for waking up.
Speaker 3: It's the most crazy thing ever. I want to tell people.
Speaker 3: If you've woken up, come on over, I want your vote.
Speaker 3: Welcome to the Republican Party. Welcome to the America First Party.
Speaker 3: We want your vote. You don't have to stop at
Speaker 3: the Independent Party. Just come right over to the Republican Party.
Speaker 3: We're going to grow it into the biggest pro America
Speaker 3: America First Republican party ever.
Speaker 2: I love that you just in that few minutes, you
Speaker 2: answered so many of my questions already.
Speaker 3: Because one I was that have coffee and we'll just chat.
Speaker 1: Exactly I'd think of the same thing. I'm thinking the
Speaker 1: same thing.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, the Arizona primary was what like two
Speaker 2: weeks away. It's on August second, and you mentioned your primary.
Speaker 3: Is that wrong? We have election season out here, We
Speaker 3: vote for twenty seven days. Isn't that Oh my gosh,
Speaker 3: this is why it's so corrupt. As a matter of fact,
Speaker 3: I'm not on the I'm not on the early voting
Speaker 3: or mail in voting list, and I double checked four
Speaker 3: times to make sure I wasn't on it. Obviously, I
Speaker 3: want to show up at the polls and vote and
Speaker 3: look what arrived in my mailbox, a mail in ballot.
Speaker 3: We have screwed up elections out here, and we're going
Speaker 3: to make sure we sort it out and figure it
Speaker 3: out and fix it when I am a governor. So yeah,
Speaker 3: I got a mail in ballot. Unfortunately, we vote for
Speaker 3: twenty seven days in Arizona.
Speaker 2: Oh my right.
Speaker 3: It allow us for a lot of loopholes for cheating
Speaker 3: for sure. Well, I was going to ask.
Speaker 2: So the official date is August second for in person voting.
Speaker 2: And I know, so your primary opponent, Karen Taylor, is
Speaker 2: it robson or robesin. I don't even know how to
Speaker 2: say it rob okay, So you.
Speaker 3: Know, actually that's a good we should call her Robson
Speaker 3: because she's been robbing. To be honest, her fundraising scheme
Speaker 3: has been robbing senior citizens. I just uncovered this last week,
Speaker 3: robbing senior citizens out of their hard earned money. And
Speaker 3: you know, these senior citizens are on Social Security, and
Speaker 3: she's robbing them out of campaign donations, tricking them. They
Speaker 3: don't even realize they're donating to her. They think they're
Speaker 3: making donations to help build the wall in Texas or
Speaker 3: help President Trump. And she's you know, you click on
Speaker 3: the link and next thing you know, you're donating to
Speaker 3: her in a recurring monthly donation. And she's had more
Speaker 3: refund requests than any other campaign that we've ever heard
Speaker 3: of in politics. Twelve hundred people demanding refunds because they've
Speaker 3: gotten caught up in this unethical fundraising scheme that she's pulling. Robson.
Speaker 3: Robson might be the perfect way to describe her. Wow.
Speaker 2: Okay, well, so I know that in just recent weeks,
Speaker 2: in the last several days, she has managed to nab
Speaker 2: some heavy hitting endorsements Doug Doucy, the current governor, Mike
Speaker 2: Pence as another. So what do you want people who
Speaker 2: are looking at the two of you, what do you
Speaker 2: want them to know would be different about how you
Speaker 2: would govern?
Speaker 3: Well, if people like the way our current governor is
Speaker 3: handling the border, which is to sit by and watch
Speaker 3: it be wide open, allow fentanyl to pour in, allow
Speaker 3: the cartels to have control, then they might like her.
Speaker 3: She's got a border plan which is similar to our
Speaker 3: current governor, Doug Doocey's border plan, which is do nothing
Speaker 3: and allow the cartels to walk all over you. And
Speaker 3: we're not going to do that anymore. We're America first,
Speaker 3: We're Arizona first, and so we're at crossroads right now.
Speaker 3: Guys in Arizona and most people don't understand what the
Speaker 3: political history of Arizona is. But for the last forty
Speaker 3: years or so, thirty or forty years, we have been
Speaker 3: watching as the McCain and mafia, the McCain machine runs
Speaker 3: the show in Arizona, and we the people don't have
Speaker 3: a say. She represents that Rhino McCain machine where the
Speaker 3: people don't matter, and I represent America first. Somebody in
Speaker 3: the media said it's a if you want four more
Speaker 3: years of Trump, you'll vote for Kerry Lake. If you
Speaker 3: want four more years of Deucey, you'll vote for Karen Robson,
Speaker 3: and frankly, I think they're right. You know, Doug Deucey
Speaker 3: is not a popular governor. He's the I think it's
Speaker 3: the third least popular governor. The only governors less popular
Speaker 3: than him are the governor of Oregon and Hawaii, and
Speaker 3: those are two states that have just been ravaged by
Speaker 3: outrageous Democrat policy. He's the he's the least popular governor.
Speaker 3: Many people have said his endorsement is the kiss of death.
Speaker 3: He shut our businesses down, and he shut our economy
Speaker 3: down twice in Arizona, he shut our schools down and
Speaker 3: masked our children. And people will not forgive him for that.
Speaker 3: People will likely.
Speaker 1: I live in Texas, and it's like those people who
Speaker 1: are making those roles, you know that, like people like Doucy,
Speaker 1: they don't have to they don't have to deal with
Speaker 1: their policies. This is the thing. I mean, it's like,
Speaker 1: what are the two million illegals are going to come
Speaker 1: across the border?
Speaker 3: What is it right here?
Speaker 1: And it's utter insanity. Carrie so and we.
Speaker 3: His endorsement, he endorsed her. He's just worried because he
Speaker 3: knows I'm going to go in there and we're gonna
Speaker 3: we're gonna do all the things he should have done,
Speaker 3: and he's going to look bad and we're going to
Speaker 3: find out who is behind the corruption in our elections.
Speaker 3: And maybe he's nervous about that. But he said she's
Speaker 3: got a great plan on the border, and I wanted
Speaker 3: to pull my hair out. I thought, if it's such
Speaker 3: a great plan, then why don't you do it right now?
Speaker 3: You're the governor doing.
Speaker 1: Why hasn't it Why hasn't it been done? Why hasn't
Speaker 1: it been done yet already?
Speaker 3: Yeah, her plan was written by the same consultants that
Speaker 3: he used, the high price McCain consultants. It's it's just
Speaker 3: six talking points and it's a whole lot of nothing.
Speaker 3: My plan has been written by and we worked tirelessly
Speaker 3: with the very best minds in border security and in
Speaker 3: the Constitution. Our border plan is called Defend Arizona, and
Speaker 3: it is the boldest, most aggressive border plan in this
Speaker 3: country's history. And that's what it's going to take because
Speaker 3: what it is, basically in basic terms, is we're using
Speaker 3: the Constitution to save our country. The Article four, Section
Speaker 3: four guarantee clause of the Constitution requires that the federal
Speaker 3: government protect us from invasion and protect our borders. And
Speaker 3: they're failing to do that. It's a dereliction of duty. Absolutely.
Speaker 3: So our plan just goes right to the remedy. It's
Speaker 3: written in the Constitution. Thank god for our fore founders,
Speaker 3: because they were brilliant. Article one, section ten has a remedy,
Speaker 3: which is when we are being invaded and in imminent danger,
Speaker 3: the states can step forward and take control of their borders.
Speaker 3: And we're going to do that on day one when
Speaker 3: I issue a declaration of invasion and we put boots
Speaker 3: on the ground at that border and we push this
Speaker 3: cartel out of our state.
Speaker 1: God precisely. It doesn't sound good. Yeah, I mean, I,
Speaker 1: like I said, I'm in Texas and I'm tired of it.
Speaker 1: I'm just tired of it because I worry for my kid.
Speaker 3: You know, it's not brain surgery. It's just it's right
Speaker 3: there in the Constitution. And of course the Left will fight,
Speaker 3: and Joe Biden will thrash around and he may try
Speaker 3: to stop us, and we will take this right up
Speaker 3: to the Supreme Court, and we're going to win because
Speaker 3: it's in black and white. There's nothing more basic than
Speaker 3: what it says in the Constitution.
Speaker 1: As you know, I am a chronic insomniac. I have
Speaker 1: trouble sleeping a lot, and that's partly because of who
Speaker 1: I am, partly because of menopause. But this stuff, this
Speaker 1: healthy cell stuff them sleep bomb you guys. I love
Speaker 1: it and it actually works because you know other stuff
Speaker 1: that are taken in the past, it's like a pill
Speaker 1: or whatever. It takes a long time to digest this stuff.
Speaker 1: It gets right into your bloodstream. It absorbs one hundred
Speaker 1: and sixty seven percent faster than pills and it's just awesome.
Speaker 1: It works. And when you're trying to sleep, you don't
Speaker 1: want to wait. Just want to go to sleep, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, and stay asleep right. And this
Speaker 1: stuff has all the stuff in it. This is what
Speaker 1: healthy sell is so wonderful at doing, is they combine
Speaker 1: all the things that you into right into.
Speaker 3: This is how many pills are in that packet.
Speaker 1: Packet of goo, which is yummy, yummy goo. I swear
Speaker 1: I could eat more than one, but I don't. I
Speaker 1: try to refrain. But anyways, it's great stuff. It actually works.
Speaker 1: They have a line of other stuff that they got,
Speaker 1: hair stuff, They've got you know, regular vitamins, but this
Speaker 1: stuff for sleep specifically is fantastic. So encourage everything.
Speaker 2: And it's cherry flavored, cherry flavored. All you need to
Speaker 2: do is go to healthy sell dot com slash chicks
Speaker 2: and when you use code chicks you get twenty percent
Speaker 2: off your first order. Try it, try or try one
Speaker 2: of their other products.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're all amazing, all of them.
Speaker 2: So, Carrie, I have four family members in Tucson, my parents,
Speaker 2: my sister and brother, in law who are there, and
Speaker 2: they are they are undecided right now between you and
Speaker 2: your opponent. So, and you know, one of the one
Speaker 2: of the questions that my dad had for me to
Speaker 2: ask you, you've already answered, which is, how does she
Speaker 2: explain her previous votes for Democrats? And I think you
Speaker 2: did a perfectly fine job answering why that vote was
Speaker 2: important to you and what you where your mind was
Speaker 2: at the time. But what are what are the other
Speaker 2: things that they should know about you that perhaps the media,
Speaker 2: for example, has gotten wrong, because I know they're digging
Speaker 2: all the dirt. They're like trying to pick fights with
Speaker 2: you and like drag queens and stuff. What do you
Speaker 2: want to set something straight about?
Speaker 3: Well, I first want to say, and I talked to
Speaker 3: President Trump all the time. I tell them, I go, wow,
Speaker 3: I'm getting the Trump treatment. I mean, it's just one
Speaker 3: attack piece after the next, after the next. I am
Speaker 3: public enemy number one for the deep state, the swamp,
Speaker 3: however you want to put it. I'm an existential threat
Speaker 3: to them. Arizona is such a big important state for
Speaker 3: them to remain in control, and especially being a border
Speaker 3: state where they run drugs and things like that. So
Speaker 3: they're really worried about us, and the press is writing
Speaker 3: one hit piece after the next after the next, and
Speaker 3: most of them are full of lies. They don't want
Speaker 3: to write about our policy. We have the best policy
Speaker 3: in the country. I mean, our homeless plan is great,
Speaker 3: our education plan is phenomenal, our water plan is terrific.
Speaker 3: And it's all plans that Democrats, independents and Republicans can
Speaker 3: get behind. So they don't want to write about that
Speaker 3: because they don't want to make us any more popular
Speaker 3: than we already are. We're up ahead by double digits.
Speaker 3: My opponent, who is married to a billionaire, will have
Speaker 3: poured twenty six million dollars of her husband's money in
Speaker 3: by election day to try to stop us. So she's
Speaker 3: putting all these deceptive ads out, unfortunately, and she's trying
Speaker 3: to detract from my history, which is a history of
Speaker 3: someone who loves this country and loves Arizona. But she's
Speaker 3: trying to detract from what she's really been up to.
Speaker 3: She's accusing me of making a three hundred dollars donation
Speaker 3: fifteen years ago to a Democrat, when the fact of
Speaker 3: the matter is, in just the last couple of years
Speaker 3: she's made thousands of dollars in donations to the most
Speaker 3: radical socialist liberals in Arizona, including a guy we call
Speaker 3: the AOC of Arizona, Reuben Diego. She's his top donor,
Speaker 3: and so she's deflecting. When she was appointed to the
Speaker 3: Arizona Board of Regents, which is the governing board for
Speaker 3: Arizona's public universities, she voted to raise tuition and fees
Speaker 3: seventy plus times. That's hard on the people of Arizona.
Speaker 3: She voted to spend taxpayer money to hire a lobbyists
Speaker 3: to go down to our state capitol and fight one
Speaker 3: of the most groundbreaking pieces of pro life legislation we've
Speaker 3: ever seen in this state. She voted to expand gun
Speaker 3: control rules and laws on our campuses and take away
Speaker 3: Second Amendment rights of faculty and adult students. And she
Speaker 3: actually had the gall during BLM, as our country was
Speaker 3: burning and people were attacking this great nation and tearing
Speaker 3: down statues to say this is quote. We've got a
Speaker 3: country that none of us are all that proud of.
Speaker 3: We've got a history that none of us are all
Speaker 3: that proud of. She has been part of the Board
Speaker 3: of Regents when they turned Arizona State, U of A,
Speaker 3: and NAU into woke universities. And so she's trying to
Speaker 3: hide from her very liberal record and deflect and accuse
Speaker 3: me of everything she's done. And she has a voting record.
Speaker 3: I don't. I was a private citizen. I don't have
Speaker 3: a voting record. She does, and it's dismal, and it's
Speaker 3: right there on our website Carrielake dot com. We laid
Speaker 3: it all out and we put it on our website
Speaker 3: so people can see who she really is. I don't
Speaker 3: have a billionaire husband to allow me to run ads
Speaker 3: ad nauseum across the airwaves like she does. But I
Speaker 3: guarantee you this to your father and your relatives. We
Speaker 3: will have an open border with her. She's an open
Speaker 3: borders globalist and it will be a continuation of the
Speaker 3: border policy we have. And she will never ever restore
Speaker 3: integrity to our elections because she doesn't even think our
Speaker 3: elections were corrupt.
Speaker 1: Well that was a pretty good explanation.
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, pretty good. You just triggered.
Speaker 1: Yeah there, Yeah, that's a good one.
Speaker 3: Okay, So this is a.
Speaker 1: Total fluff question because we do this and we have
Speaker 1: people on that are running for office, and that are conservatives.
Speaker 1: And I think that you know, like like mok set,
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff has been written about you that
Speaker 1: is obviously untrue. But I want to know like you personally,
Speaker 1: Like what do you like to do? Like what are
Speaker 1: some of the things that you enjoy that you like
Speaker 1: to do? There are some of your hobbies that people
Speaker 1: don't know about you, Carrie, Because my heart's.
Speaker 3: Sitting right here and he's chuckling because you know I
Speaker 3: we used to have a lot of fun. I lived
Speaker 3: a care free life. I raised my children, there's seventeen
Speaker 3: and nineteen now. I came from a large family in Iowa,
Speaker 3: the youngest of nine, eight girls and one boy. And
Speaker 3: I've worked hard my whole life. I've I've always had
Speaker 3: to work. If we wanted toothpaste in shampoo, we had
Speaker 3: to work for it. I've been working babysitting when I
Speaker 3: was seven, which is probably too young, and so I've
Speaker 3: worked really hard. I've got a good work at it.
Speaker 1: But when you had free time, what did you like
Speaker 1: to do in your free time? Well, because I know
Speaker 1: you don't have any now.
Speaker 3: Every once in a while, I'll tell the campaign, Hey,
Speaker 3: I'd like to have a day off I try to
Speaker 3: take Sundays off, and it's hard to find that level
Speaker 3: of relaxation to do something fun because I feel that
Speaker 3: we are in the middle of a battle. It's like,
Speaker 3: can you imagine being in the middle of a war
Speaker 3: and you are in the middle of a battle, and
Speaker 3: you say, okay, guys, let's all, let's all just take
Speaker 3: a day off and we'll you know, we'll go to
Speaker 3: the mall, we'll do something. We're in the middle of
Speaker 3: a fight here, and I'm having a hard time just
Speaker 3: taking time off to enjoy life. But I am putting
Speaker 3: trying to enjoy what we do in this campaign, and
Speaker 3: that's connecting with the great people of Arizona. I used
Speaker 3: to golf. I took up golf during COVID and I
Speaker 3: was actually getting a little bit good at it, to
Speaker 3: the point where I got rid of my thrift store
Speaker 3: at golf clubs and actually bought some decent clubs. And
Speaker 3: then I jumped into the Governor's race and I've only
Speaker 3: used them twice. I haven't had a chance.
Speaker 1: Well, hold on, Jim, you never know. You may get
Speaker 1: another day off here.
Speaker 3: Sometimes then, and my kids are teenagers, seventeen and nineteen,
Speaker 3: so we used to do a lot as family together,
Speaker 3: but now they kind of want to do their own thing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a pretty we can relate. We both have.
Speaker 3: Yeah, somebody asks, what's it like having your mom run
Speaker 3: for office? She's gone on time, and my son's like, yeah,
Speaker 3: it's great. She's not home, she's not nagging me.
Speaker 1: Right, ask him again in a couple of years and
Speaker 1: helping differently.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 2: Well, And Carria, you mentioned being in the fight, and
Speaker 2: I know that's one of the things that people who
Speaker 2: love you really love you because of your fight. And
Speaker 2: that is the same thing that that's the same quality
Speaker 2: that they loved so much about President Trump too, is
Speaker 2: that he was not afraid. He was not going to
Speaker 2: be a doormat to anyone. He was not going to
Speaker 2: pull any punches. He said all the things, which leads
Speaker 2: me to have to ask, you've got to fill us
Speaker 2: in on this Meghan McCain fight.
Speaker 3: Because she has blocked us.
Speaker 2: She blocked us on Twitter forever ago.
Speaker 3: What in the world.
Speaker 1: Yeah, record, and I like the nickname Maverick. For the record,
Speaker 1: I think that's you, and we're going to call you
Speaker 1: that from here.
Speaker 3: It was so funny because actually I was down in Tucson.
Speaker 3: We were at a place called the Maverick and if
Speaker 3: you're from Tucson, it's been around for I think they
Speaker 3: said fifty or sixty years. It's a really cool live
Speaker 3: music I want to say bar, but it's kind of
Speaker 3: It's a place where they hold huge events, five hundred
Speaker 3: plus people and we were there packed crowd, standing room only,
Speaker 3: and you know, talking about saving Arizona and saving America.
Speaker 3: And something triggered her and she called me the B
Speaker 3: word and said, if you're going to steal my my
Speaker 3: father's nickname, and I'm like, I get off the stage.
Speaker 3: We had a great rally, we talked about our promises
Speaker 3: to Arizona, the ten big things we want to do,
Speaker 3: and I find out that she's been calling me the
Speaker 3: B word and attacking me, and I'm like, what the
Speaker 3: heck triggered her? Well, she got it wrong. She thought
Speaker 3: because the location where we were was called the Maverick,
Speaker 3: that I was feeling her father's nickname. She soon deleted
Speaker 3: the tweet, but she continued to go after me for days,
Speaker 3: calling me a hag and all sorts of terrible names.
Speaker 3: And it's sad because I think they're realizing they're becoming
Speaker 3: irrelevant and that the people aren't interested in and where
Speaker 3: they are. I mean, remember the mccains are the ones
Speaker 3: who turned on Republicans. Yeah yeah, and so you know,
Speaker 3: no love lost. I will say this, Megan, if you're watching,
Speaker 3: when I am governor, we are going to have America First,
Speaker 3: Arizona First, policies that are going to be so awesome
Speaker 3: for this state that even you will be living a
Speaker 3: life that's better and and things will be better for
Speaker 3: you as well. Look at you, unifying, look at that.
Speaker 1: I know, I know it's way better than what we
Speaker 1: would have done.
Speaker 3: I think she's person, maybe a sad person, and I
Speaker 3: actually I do pray for her. I hope that she
Speaker 3: finds some peace within.
Speaker 2: Yeah, fake you Carrie that because I really wanted to
Speaker 2: know the dirt on that story. I'd read the articles
Speaker 2: and I was just like, how did she get this
Speaker 2: so wrong? Because I saw that you were at a
Speaker 2: location called the Maverick, and I thought, oh man, that
Speaker 2: was that was a really sad misunderstanding, kind of weird.
Speaker 1: The whole thing was kind of weird. Yeah, But I
Speaker 1: do like I think that it actually looten. Nobody owns
Speaker 1: that nickname. I think it's still a cool nickname. I
Speaker 1: think that actually it's suits you.
Speaker 3: I'll stick with ultra maga.
Speaker 1: How's that that's cool.
Speaker 3: I'm going to show you our new poster that we
Speaker 3: put out, which is great. Somebody said it looks very
Speaker 3: ultra maga.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I love it. I just love it.
Speaker 3: This is the Arizona state flag and I had a
Speaker 3: T shirt on that day and we just we did
Speaker 3: kind of a fun photo and then somebody made it
Speaker 3: into one of our one of our supporters made it
Speaker 3: into a post, which we call the Ultra Ultra Mego poster.
Speaker 1: I mean, dare I say it's a badass, It's completely bad.
Speaker 1: I love it.
Speaker 3: Carry thank you so much.
Speaker 2: We want to be I know you've got a lot
Speaker 2: to get to and so we want to be respectful
Speaker 2: of your time. I hope that I run into you
Speaker 2: when I'm in Tucson in late August, so maybe I'll
Speaker 2: reach out to your folks and see where you are.
Speaker 3: And if we're doing we're.
Speaker 1: Doing our meet and greet there too next spring, so
Speaker 1: hopefully maybe we'll be able to. Yeah, so maybe we
Speaker 1: can like connect with your people, and who knows, maybe
Speaker 1: we can visit you then, so that would be like.
