"Clay Travis and buck Sexton sound off. Got critical Senate races with razor thin margins in a number of states across the country. One we haven't spent time in a deep dive with quite yet is New Hampshire, where senator Maggie Hassan is going up against the Republican Don baldock, who is joining us right now. Don appreciate you being with us, sir. Hey, sir. I am so excited to be with you guys today This is awesome. Thank you for the opportunity and my best to hear all your listeners. Yes, so tell us, you're in a race here that looks winnable based on the numbers. Why are you running and what are the folks in New Hampshire need to know about what you'll do, Don if you become the next senator from that state? Well, thank you for that question. It's not only winnable because of the numbers. It's also winnable because senator Hassan has done absolutely nothing for New Hampshire except hurt the people with supporting all of Joe Biden's failed policies, economic out of control spending, she's a spending machine. She's a big government machine. Everything that New Hampshire doesn't like. She's been doing now for the last 5 and a half plus years. So you look at the 1.9 trillion. I'm going to build a $1.2 trillion infrastructure Bill. The $800 billion inflation reduction act, which I call the IRS inflation act or expansion act, $240 billion for U.S. chip manufacturers, which was basically a bailout and then the fact that she wants to and supports the illegal student debt forgiveness or what I call debt transfer to hard work and people. 5.1 trillion in just a few months, unbelievable. She's done nothing for the border. She sits on the Homeland Security committee and we don't have Homeland Security right now with the crime, the opioid crisis with human trafficking and all of this. So it's an easy argument to make based off of common sense and looking at what she's done and granite staters are listening because I'm doing what she's not and has not done. I've been to every town and city in this state. I've been campaigning for over two years. I've talked to moms and dads. I've held their hand. I've hugged them while they've cried, not knowing whether or not they're going to be able to heat or feed their children. What they're going to do with the cold winter right around the corner. And all she wants to talk about is abortion, which has been settled. It's a state issue. Social security and Medicare, which The Washington Post just gave Democrats four pinocchios for lying that Republicans want to demolish it. That's not the case at all. So we have a strong case against her not doing her job for granted staters leaving everyone out in the lurch 700 more dollars a month coming out of their pocket one out of 6 people can't afford their electric bill, opioid crisis, 200% worse here in this state. Human trafficking out of control. I mean, she is just a disaster. And she knows it. And that's why her and the Democratic Party want to deflect. And that's why we're taking the fight directly to her and saying, hey, enough is enough. You are, we appreciate you coming on. You are in addition to running for the Senate. You are the recipient of 5 bronze star medals, two purple hearts. You also became a police officer, I believe, at 18 years old, and rose all the way to being a general in our armed forces. What do you think about the lack of respect that we see out in our streets right now for police officers and also the WOAK version of the military, which I imagine is quite a bit different than the military that you served in. Right. Well, let me take the police officers first. First of all, with the Democratic Party, has done over the last three years, basically since COVID started is they have created a situation in which our law enforcement does not respect it. And they have taken the bad actions of a few in cast them on everybody. Let's think about what they did early on in COVID when, oh, you know, you guys are essential. And then when they came out with this vaccine, only purely to put money in career politicians and big pharma's pocket, did they say, oh, in order to work, you have to, you know, you have to get these shots and we've seen how that directly has impacted retention of police officers across this nation. The fact that the assault and killing of police officers is at an all time high, suicide among police officers as an all time high. Maggie Hassan supports all of these policies and she may not have direct statements. Supporting them. But by not saying anything, silent is silence is consent. She has done nothing. I have received the backing of the New England police benevolent association and the United federation of police officers and we expect to collect more because I will back our police. I will support law abiding citizens. I will make sure that our police officers have the funding that they need and more importantly, I would go to Washington, D.C., and I will change this narrative about our police officers and first responders in general to one of a positive and not a negative. And that's really what needs to be done. Now, our military, this has been a work in progress. It started in the Obama administration. I believe now looking back and studying and seeing some of the reasons I was counseled as a general officer, are directly related to the fact that I was assessed as somebody who would not support these woke policies. And so therefore, I was asked to retire. Even though as a one star, I was given a two star job, I was not promoted in that job, even though my evaluations suggested that stated that I should be, I wasn't. And it's because they knew that in dawn baldick, I would not put up with our service members being forced to have vaccination when there's no operational requirement for it. Forced to have pronoun training stand down on critical military training, making our military so woke that now it's marginally capable of doing its job and changing how we develop our leaders in our academies to one of go along to move along. Instead of character integrity, candor courage. And this is the problem we have. So all those officers at the four and three and two star levels are all deliberately selected for the purpose of going along with this very dangerous political agenda that's emboldened China, Russia, North Korea, Iran, and uni, we need I need to get in Congress because I've worked with them. I know them and I will ask them the tough questions and we will get this changed in reverse. Don, we have people listening all across your state of New Hampshire, including on WG IR in Manchester and in Portsmouth, as well as all of our podcasts and digital listeners just

"Campaign 2022 on WTO, the primary election season comes to a close tonight, as voters in Rhode Island, Delaware, and New Hampshire decide their picks with fewer than two months to go until the November midterms. Many eyes will be on New Hampshire where there's a 5 way Republican Senate primary to see who till take on the democratic senator Maggie Hassan in the fall. Political junkie podcast host Ken rudin says establishment Republicans are supporting state Senate president chuck Morse in the race, even though he is not favored to win. He's the president of the state Senate. He's backed by governor sununu. He's backed by Mitch McConnell because he probably has a better shot of winning against Maggie Hansen in November, but the polls show baldick with a huge lead. Meanwhile, in Rhode Island, voters will choose the nominee for the state's second congressional district left open when Democrat Jim langevin announced he would not seek reelection. Delaware's congressional primary races are uncontested. They'll stay with us here on WTO.

Twitter says that co, who was fired earlier this year, has made accusations riddled with inaccuracies. On Capitol Hill, Mitchell Miller, WTO news. Today lawmakers in West Virginia have passed a sweeping abortion ban. Victims of rape and incest would be able to obtain abortions at up to 8 weeks of pregnancy, but only if they first reported the crime to police, rape and incest victims who are minors would have up to 14 weeks and must report either to police or to a doctor. Abortions would be allowed in cases of medical emergencies as well, several Republicans say they hope the bill will make it impossible for the state's only abortion clinic to continue to offer the procedure. The White House says senator Lindsey Graham's proposal to ban most abortions at 15 weeks of pregnancy is wildly out of step with the majority of Americans on abortion rights. The South Carolina Republican senator today introduced the bill that would only allow abortions in cases of rape and incest and to save the life of the mother. In June, the Supreme Court ended the constitutional right to abortion when it overturned roe V wade, leaving abortion law to the states. Democrats have vowed to pass a national law to protect abortion rights, but it is infeasible without a democratic majority in the Senate.

"Dot com and schedule your free estimate today. It's now 6 11 and today President Biden said that Democrats need to fight for abortion rights at the ballot box. The choice is clear. We're either elect federal senators and representatives who will codify row Republicans who will elect the House and Senate will try to fan abortions nationwide. The president spoke today with governors about next steps in the wake of the Supreme Court's decision last week to overturn roe versus wade. A little earlier, we spoke with WTO Capitol Hill correspondent Mitchell Miller about how this issue is impacting the midterm Senate races. We're already seeing abortion rights pop up prominently in some races. Today, for example, in the Pennsylvania Senate race, both Democrat John fetterman and Republican mehmet Doctor Oz put out statements touting their respective positions, fetterman noting his endorsement and funding from a pro abortion rights group. And Oz from an organization that opposes abortion rights, Democrats really leaning into this issue in New Hampshire, democratic senator Maggie Hassan quickly put out an ad this week solely about abortion rights. And during a debate among Republicans seeking the GOP nomination in that state, the candidates were all asked about abortion. Democrats, as I said, really looking to heighten up this issue, bring this issue up higher into the political spectrum and in Wisconsin, four Democrats are seeking the party's nomination. They have all pledged to support a filibuster carve out for abortion rights if they're elected in the race against Republican Ron Johnson. What about the latest polls is abortion rights and issue that could change the direction of some congressional races in the midterms, Mitchell? Well, Dimitri is still a little early to say, but Democrats have pointed out that fundraising rose considerably after last Friday's ruling came down. Also, a PBS NewsHour marist poll out this week finds that 78% of Democrats say the court's decision makes them more likely to vote this fall that compares to 54% for Republicans. 51% say they would definitely vote for a candidate who supports a federal law that would restore the right to an abortion. However, a lot of polls as you both know also show that people are very concerned about inflation and gas prices. That's what Republicans are leaning into. Niche, what is the overall outlook right now for the balance of power in the Senate after the midterms? Well, Hillary, unlike the house where the Republican takeover seems to be all but a given, the Senate power struggle looks like it's going to be another nail biter for both parties. Republicans only need to get a net gain, of course, of one seat to take over, which would really leave President Biden in full lame duck status. 34 seats are up for reelection and in addition to the states I mentioned earlier among the states that we're really going to be looking at over the next few months and into November are Arizona, Nevada, North Carolina, Florida, Ohio, and Missouri.
