On May 2, 2024, Ron Hanks, Lauren Fix, Karen Levine, Rebecca Lavrenz, and Lorne Levy joined the show. Former state legislator argues for proven conservative leadership in CD3, warns about mail-in ballot fraud and Biden’s 30 by 30 land grab initiative Automotive expert exposes the EV mandate disaster destroying American auto manufacturing, UAW pressure tactics, and the broader agenda to force Americans into 15-minute cities Reports Denver market. Congressional District 3 Race and Election Integrity Start listening at 16:43 – Hour 1 Ron Hanks, former state legislator and candidate for Colorado’s Congressional District 3, makes the case for proven conservative leadership in a crowded primary field of six Republican candidates. Hanks, who participated in the Maricopa County audit, warns that mail-in balloting has been a disaster for election integrity, noting that before 2020 only about 30 percent of the nation mailed their ballots compared to over 70 percent now. He points to concerning evidence from Arizona where mail-in ballots that were part of official records had never been folded, indicating they were never actually in envelopes. Hanks addresses the Biden administration’s 30 by 30 land grab initiative, specifically the Dolores monument proposal threatening private property rights in Mesa, Montrose, and San Miguel counties. He emphasizes that the effort represents an attack on private property rights by people who have been good stewards of the land for generations. On House leadership, Hanks calls for electing a speaker who won’t sandbag Donald Trump the way Paul Ryan did. “I am the only conservative and I’m the only one with a record. And I humbly submit to the voters of CD3 and the state of Colorado that now is not the time to be experimenting with people who are still trying to figure out what their ideas are.” Ron Hanks, Former Colorado State Legislator Electric Vehicle Mandates and the Auto Industry Crisis Start listening at 31:33 – Hour 1 Lauren Fix, the Car Coach, delivers a devastating analysis of the electric vehicle mandate crisis destroying the American auto industry. She reports that Cadillac announced it will continue selling gasoline-powered vehicles beyond 2030 because consumers aren’t buying EVs. Over 50 percent of people who buy electric cars won’t go back to electric, and manufacturers take a loss on every single EV sold. Ford Motor Company loses tens of thousands on each F-150 Lightning and Mach-E sold. Fix exposes how 34 Democratic representatives pressured Volkswagen to allow UAW unionization at its Chattanooga, Tennessee plant, warning that the UAW will attempt to unionize all non-union auto plants in states like Alabama, Texas, and South Carolina. She warns that manufacturers will either automate or move plants to Mexico rather than pay $108,000 a year per worker. Honda has decided to pay federal fines rather than comply with the 35 percent electric mandate by 2032 because people don’t want EVs. The broader agenda becomes clear: if consumers won’t buy electric cars, the government will force them into mass transit and 15-minute cities where everything is controlled. Fix warns that utilities can shut off power as easily as they turn it on. “They want you in electric cars. Why? Because people don’t want them. Okay, But there’s a bigger picture. Remember what I said about distraction? The bigger picture is if we can’t get you in electric cars, don’t worry. We’ll make it so you have to travel with mass transit.” Lauren Fix, Car Coach Reports Denver Met...
