yes [Applause] how are you nathan how are you this campaign where's gloria where's gloria romero i don't see gloria romero anywhere [Music] there she is gloria romero gloria let me say something about gloria romero you know who gloria romero is gloria romero is a democrat i'm hoping a recovering democrat we'll see she was the senate majority leader she crossed party lines she's still a democrat like my mother was still a democrat my brother was still a democrat i couldn't get them to change their party but i got them to vote a lot more sensibly glory across state party lines and supporting my candidacy because of the issue of school choice because of the issue of school choice as you know my opponent governor gavin newsom come on let's let's let's be gracious let's be gracious in defeat and by the way we may have lost the battle but we are going to win the war [Applause] gloria cross party lines because of the issue of school choice we're spending fifteen thousand dollars every year for students in our government schools in california notice i don't call them public schools i call them government schools fifteen thousand dollars a year some of the worst reading reading scores some of the worst worst math scores only about 15 or 16 states spend more and the students that are getting the raw end of the deal are the black and brown students who comprise 80 percent of the government students in our government schools they're getting the worst teachers the worst principles the worst administrators the worst outcomes what is the route from poverty to middle class at least finish high school one presumably where you can read write and compute at grade level and that is not happening i read a study that said roughly five percent of government teachers across the nation are incompetent roughly five percent i have no idea whether that's true of california but let's assume for a moment that it is there are 300 000 public school teachers in california any given year 2.2 were fired if it is true that five percent are incompetent that means fifteen thousand are incompetent 2.2 every year are fired again i'm not saying that it applies to california but assuming it does imagine if that applied to cops in la i'm in l.a ten thousand force support assuming fifteen percent were incompetent talking about five hundred five hundred doing what planning evidence engaging in racial profiling using excessive force we wouldn't put up with it we'll put up with 15 000 incompetent public school teachers that is why gloria and i support school choice so the money [Applause] so the money goes into an account education savings account that the parent can control put the kid in a charter school a private school a religious school or god forbid homeschooling [Music] the reason we started this campaign is because this man governor gavin newsom was sitting up there at the french laundry restaurant with lobbyists who contributed to his campaign with the people who drafted the mandates that they were violating by not wearing masks by not engaging in social distancing while telling you to do it meanwhile his own kids were enjoying in-person private education now he incurred a 12 000 wine tab no i don't know what they ordered but i bet you wasn't mad dog 2020 crime up crime up 41 in la and i'm talking about shootings homicides under this governor 20 000 convicted felons were released early what could possibly go wrong the other day former president former senator barbara boxer was mugged in oakland you're not cheering for barbara boxer being mugged are you this is a this is a rough crowd it's a rough crowd also i wanted to give some love to arnie steinberg arne steinberg my strategist arnie you were brilliant absolutely brilliant also jenny sand is here jenny without you i probably wouldn't have run jenny sand pastor jack hibbs [Applause] dennis dennis prager [Applause] and again my chairman lionel chapman all of whom advised me to run but ultimately i decided to run because i felt that i could do something about the crime i could do something about the homelessness i could do something about the fact that california has now hit 800 thousand dollars average price of a home that's a hundred and fifty percent above the national average outrageous because of the stranglehold the environmental extremists have had over gavin newsom and have had over sacramento you more we have five seasons in california now the fifth one is fire because of the poor forest management outgoing governor jerry brown had a plan to clear 500 000 acres of fallen trees dead trees and dry vegetation and our governor claimed that he cleared 90 000 acres which would have been a drop in the bucket if it were true but it wasn't according to the la times he only cleared 13 of what he said he would which meant he exaggerated by a factor of seven [Music] you know before the pandemic before the pandemic half of all third graders in our government schools could not read at state levels of proficiency half and those levels are low math scores even worse 75 of black boys could not read at state levels of proficiency math scores are even worse because i care about this i've been called the black face of white supremacy we're running out of water in california we haven't added to our water infrastructure in 40 or 50 years when the state was half its size it's not like voters don't know what to do we pass bond measure after bond measure after bond measure for more reservoirs to raise dams for more underground water storage and yet the water drains right out into the pacific ocean there is a desert nation in the middle east it's called israel because of desalination because of desalination they are now water self-sufficient they got a little body of water next to them called the mediterranean we have a little body of water next to us called the pacific ocean we can't figure this out rolling brownouts are you kidding me rolling brownouts because we're forcing our utility companies to invest tens of millions of dollars into weather dependent unreliable sources of energy called wind and solar a war on oil and gas it almost takes an act of congress to get a permit to drill an oil well or to drill for natural gas many of the middle-class jobs working-class jobs related to those industries are all now gone for the first time in our state's history never happened before what are we 170 years old i think arnie you were there when this first happened right first time in our state's history people are leaving a net migration out of california i love the smile sir net migration out of california and when middle-class people cite as the reason for leaving the number one reason they cite is they cannot afford the price of a home average price has just hit 800 000 which is 150 percent above the national average largely because of the environmental extremists that allow people to file a lawsuit to stop any development project for any reason for an indefinite period of time it is outrageous and businesses are leaving more businesses have left california this year you left too you're leaving soon you're leaving soon yeah more businesses have left california so far this year than have left all of last year and the rate at which people are leaving california is nearly twice the rate that they've left the last two or three years there's a magazine called ceo magazine you know i've mentioned that magazine been around for 17 years 17 years they've asked ceos which is the worst state in which to do business based upon taxes based upon spending based upon the power of the public sector unions based upon whether or not the state has a pro-business or an anti-business attitude for 17 consecutive years california has been determined to be the worst state in which to do business now nobody cares about millionaires and billionaires to quote bernie sanders highest state income tax in the nation 13 point three percent there are forty million people living in california one percent pay half of the state income taxes and the state income taxes are the largest source of revenue one percent account for half of all the state income taxes so when a millionaire or billionaire leaves california he or she is taking that massive tax base with them leaving less money for the things government is supposed to do this is what we're facing rising crime declining quality of our public schools shut down the state to the point where a third of all small businesses are now gone forever we've only recovered half of our jobs pre-pandemic as opposed to two-thirds of the rest of the nation because we're paying people not to work rolling brown outs water shortages farmers in kern county tell me now they are rationing water i can't think of anything that this man has done in the last two years that success he deserves another day in office however we recognize that we lost the battle but we are certainly going to win the war we're forcing we are forcing them now to pay attention to the problem of homelessness we are forcing them now to do a better job on schools we are forcing them now to do a better job on clearing our forest we're forcing them now to do a better job about energy we are forcing them now to pay attention to the things they should have paid attention to two years ago [Music] [Applause] so i know that i want to say a little something about my mom my dad because they're looking at me right now you know my dad came here in 1945. didn't have two nickels to rub together eighth grade dropout who did not know who his biological father is clean toilets full time two jobs one for nabisco brand bread and one for barbara and bread saved up enough nickels and dime to start a little cafe in an area of l.a called pico union bought a house uptown in south central that is now worth 700 000 i only mentioned that because it's still in our family wonderful for us but somebody who had an eighth grade dropout education who worked three or four jobs could not have a stay-at-home wife as my dad did educating three boys until the last of us went to middle school could not duplicate that path because of the outrageous cost of living in california largely driven by these environmental extremists that have had a stranglehold over gavin newsom and had a stranglehold over sacramento we're going to turn that around they're going to have to pay attention to that now they weren't going to before but now because of us because of you they're going to have to pay attention to that so we so we have lost a battle but we are absolutely going to win the war absolutely [Music] [Applause] my mother my mother would not have put up with this the racial division that we're having right now critical race theory reparations dividing us by race notice that all these people whether barack obama or elizabeth warren or bernie sanders all of whom cut a commercial for gavin newsom noticed they never said the following words gavin newsom has done a good job for the people of california it's a republican takeover white supremacists say hello to the black face of white supremacy hey don't laugh don't laugh i worked hard for that title what do you think would have happened if a candidate such as barack obama running for president had a white woman in a gorilla mask throw an egg at him what would have happened front page news washington post front page twos new york times systemic racism alive and well in america they would have been talking about it in bangladesh but with me nothing now now let's analyze this maybe the lady who threw the egg with one of the 20 000 convicted felons that gavin neeson released early i don't know maybe she would have been in jail had we not had a soft on crime d.a who was backed by gavin newsom who believes in cashless bail maybe she would have been in jail now i was called sexist so i want to be very careful about this people have told me that this white woman had a gorilla mask and i've said to my friends how do you know it was a mask [Applause] i don't know you know and i have never i have never suggested that anybody should vote for me because i'm black or against me because i'm black i don't go there as far as i'm concerned after we elected the first black president everything else after that is anti-climactic okay okay but but front page article in the new york times it was negative all about me never once mentioning my race that i'm black never once mentioning that if i were to win i'd be the first black governor of california now i'm fine with that i'm fine with that but on the same page equally long article about quote the first female governor of new york now she had a d at the end of her name so it's relevant she's the first i have an r at the end of my name and suddenly i'm no longer black it's amazing how that happens astonishing how that happens how astonishing how that happens they try to divide us on race they want black people not to think about the fact that families have been destroyed because of the welfare state they don't want black people to think about the decline the quality of public education they don't want black people to think about jobs all they want is black people to think about oppression that you are under seized you are a victim really in 2021 after we elected the first black president who got a higher percentage of the white vote than john kerry did four years earlier knock it off knock it off knock it off it divides us by race we believe in the dream of mlk dividing judging people by content of character not color of skin [Applause] and let me tell you something to the extent that it is humanly possible america has achieved that dream come on larry the headline is going to be i'll speak slowly because i know cnn is here [Applause] headline come on headlines going to be his life's going to be larry oder says there's no racism in america no i didn't say that hell 8 of americans believe elvis is still alive i don't know what to tell you but to the extent that it is humanly possible we have achieved the dream of martin luther king where people are being evaluated by content of character and not color or skin knock it off obama was running in 2007. he was running against hillary for the nomination mitt romney was running against john mccain for republican nomination right gallup decided to ask which of these four candidates had the biggest hurdle they asked americans what percentage of you would never vote for a black person for president five percent 2007 what percentage would never vote for a female president 11 what percentage would never vote for a mormon referring to mitt romney 24 percent what percentage would never vote for somebody who would be 72 years old when he became president referring to john mccain 42 so obama had a lower hurdle than these three white politicians knock it off knock it off speaking of the former president when he was running for the nomination against hillary he hadn't caught her yet he was invited on 60 minutes and steve croft the correspondent said senator if you don't get the nomination will it be because of your race and i'm at home by myself nina wasn't there and i said let me see what this man says and he said no if i don't get the nomination it will be because i have not articulated the vision that the american people can embrace i said hallelujah he's not what i call a victory he's not sharpton he's not jesse jackson he's not dividing us fast forward he gets in and by the way when he walked into office he had 70 percent approval which meant a whole bunch of people who didn't vote for him because he got about 52 percent said okay all right you know i don't agree with taxing and spending and regulations and soft on the borders and soft on national security but at least he will be a racial reconciliator what did he do he divided us time and time and time again the cambridge police acted stupidly remember that his good friend skip gates who's a professor at uh at harvard of african american studies uh comes back from vacation forgets his door key he and the cab driver break into his house neighbors sees this doesn't recognize him cambridge and calls 911. don't you want your neighbors to do that white cob shows up very politely says sees him in the house doesn't know if he belongs to the house says sir please come out and show id what did gates say i'll come out if your mama tells me to come out and what obama should have said what obama should have said this is early in his presidency when he should have set the table obama should have said you know last night i talked to my friend skip gates and owner for a number of years i said skip skip come on come on you're a harvard professor you're tenured a lot of these profile kiddings high-profile healing shootings would have been avoided if the suspect civilian had just complied so i told him i said knock it off knock it off you should have just come out and said show some id incident would have been over but you copped an attitude obama didn't say that what did he say the cambridge police acted stupidly no they didn't they did their job if i had a son he looked like trayvon what does that mean there's a place called ferguson where we have our own problems it was a lie michael brown did not have his hands up did not say don't shoot it was a lie he invited al sharpton the nation's most notorious race card hustler into the white house over 70 times he embraced his bogus black lives matter movement he made things worse i'm a uniter we are uniting [Music] we are going to bring this country together we are going to bring this country together because we know what the real problems are and they have nothing whatever to do with racism i was talking to a black reporter about all of this he says you don't believe in systemic racism i said no i don't i said study if the study of the study has shown that if cops if anything they are more hesitant more reluctant to pull the trigger on a black suspect than a white suspect in fact more unarmed whites are killed every year than unarmed blacks i said name one unarmed white couldn't do it because cnn doesn't care msnb he-haw doesn't care anderson cooper doesn't care they only care if an unarmed black person is killed more unarmed whites killed every year than unarmed blacks it is a lie i said to him he still wasn't feeling me you know i'm a uncle tom i'm a sellout i'm a boo licker i'm the black face of white supremacy i said by far the biggest problem in our society in general the biggest problem in the black community in particular is a large number of children who enter the world with our father married to the mother let's be real here let's be real he didn't want to hear it i said all right let's do this get out your magic wand steven sacks much love zanna get out your magic wand steven sacks i've known him for a number of years from south africa he can tell you what apartheid is really like we're an apartheid state america really so i say get out your magic wand wave it over america remove every smidgen of racism from the hearts of white people now everybody in america who's white thinks like mother teresa i said to him do we still have the phenomenon where 70 percent of black children enter the world without a father married to the mother forget about elder i love to quote left-wing people whenever i can barack obama once said only said it once he got hammered doesn't say it anymore a kid raised by the father is five times more likely to be poor and commit crime nine times more likely to drop out of school 20 times more likely to end up in jail now 25 percent of black children enter the world without a father married to the mother in 1965 now the number is 70 i said do we still have that phenomenon by the way 25 of white kids now enter the world today without a father married to the mother half of all hispanic kids into the world without a father married to the mother 40 of all children do because because when lyndon johnson launched the so-called war on poverty 20 trillion dollars later we are incentivizing women to marry the government and incentivizing men to abandon their financial and moral responsibility and i said to him after you wave this wand do we still have the situation where the number one cause of preventable death for young white men is accidents like car accidents or drownings whereas the number one cause of preventable deaths for young black men is homicide almost always at the hands of another young black man do we still have the phenomenon i told him where of the 15 000 annual homicides every year half of the victims are black even though blacks are only 13 of the population do we still have phenomena do we still have the phenomenon where a young black man is eight times more likely to be killed than a young white man i said if the answer to that series of questions is true then i submit to you that systemic racism is not the problem and critical race theory and reparations are not the answer knock it off knock it off we our movement is about bringing people together and dealing with the problems that we have of crime of homelessness of people leaving this state because of the high cost of living because we have the highest state income tax in the nation because we have high regulations because we're not managing our forest properly because we're not managing our integrity our energy grid properly and we are not investing in our water infrastructure these are the kinds of things that we're going to deal with it's not about race knock it off my father came here in 1945 two nickels to rub together worked two full-time jobs cleaning toilets started a little cafe pico union area became a marine world war ii marine thank you sir by the way when i asked my dad why he became a marine he said two reasons you know what i'm going to say they go where the action is i love the uniforms and my father always told my brothers and me hard work wins you get you get out of life what you put into it you cannot control the outcome larry but you are 100 in control of the effort and before you complain about what somebody said to you or did you go to the nearest mirror look at it and say what could i have done to change the outcome and finally my father always told this to my brothers and me no matter how hard you work how good you are sooner or later bad things are going to happen how you deal with those bad things will tell your mother and me if we raised a man and every day i try to please my mother and my father by trying to convince them that they in fact have raised a man so i just want to thank everybody all my volunteers all the people who knocked on doors who rang doorbells who made phone calls who went online i want to thank my wonderful campaign staff i have been a politician for all of seven or eight weeks how am i doing [Applause] they are now listening in ways they never listened before they're now hearing us in ways they've never heard us before they're now going to work our problems the way they've never done before i'm not somebody like my opponent who was born on third base and thought he hit a triple i'm somebody from the inner city whose parents came here as i said with nothing who worked hard love you too who worked hard who believed in the american dream and we believe in the american dream we believe in a country we believe in the vision of martin luther king we believe in hope true hope true unity we don't divide by race we don't divide by gender we don't divide by sexual orientation we don't divide by ethnicity we don't divide by religion we unite [Applause] my opponent referred to this recall as a move to take over california by white supremacists do i look like a white supremacist now when you consider we don't blame we don't finger point we don't roll like that but when you consider we were outspent by a factor of five six seven to one i wasn't running just against gavin newsom i was running against the left-wing media i was running i was running against the newspaper the la times referred to me as the black face of white supremacy i was for refer i'm running against a newspaper they call me everything but a black david duke i'm running against a media that serves as a public relations bureau for the left and we still scare the be jesus out of them [Applause] that's why they brought in that brought in brought in barack obama they brought in bernie sanders a socialist who owns three homes but i digress they brought in signature warren and as i said before all they did all they did was call this a republican takeover i mentioned state senator gloria romero 63 of hispanics voted for this man just two years earlier and gloria you know this the majority of hispanics now want him out over the issue of school choice the majority of decline the state voted for him just two years ago now the majority want him out and they're calling this a republican takeover it is insulting to the people of california who signed their petition and who voted yes on the recall it is insulting but that's how they roll we don't roll that way we don't finger point we don't blame we roll up our seas we get back to it because as i said before we may have lost the battle but we're sure as hell going to win the war [Applause] finally let me leave you with this i want to thank all of the religious leaders who backed me pastor pastor joel pedic of huntington hills pastor jack hibbs chino [Applause] pastor joe franklin fresno pastor paul chapel lancaster hope i'm not leaving anybody out you all got my love and i love you so much and i must tell you i have been overwhelmed by the support men men women coming up to me crying saying that for the first time you've now given me hope that things can turn around now tomorrow i'm going to be asked by all the members of the media what are you going to do next what happens after this christian thank you for your love what happens after all
