hello treasure coast those are the mart Martin County Democrats fired up in Florida.
But it's not just them.
Democrats and Republicans and independents uniting, fired up to make sure that Donald Trump does not get elected.
And from what I'm hearing, not just the poll numbers, but from all of my sources on the ground in Florida,
they say that Florida
can be flipped, that it's the real deal. Yeah, the polls are showing that Vice President Kamala Harris
is within four points of Donald Trump. But as you dig deeper and you don't just see the energy in
places like the villages, you take a look, which is normally very conservative, but they know that
Donald Trump's going to take away their Medicare and take away their social security and also
screw the world for their grandchildren and future generations. So people are fired up and joining
forces together. But then the Haitian community in Florida comprised of over 500,000 Haitians
who vote. And remember that sign that they had in Uniondale, Long Island,
when Donald Trump spoke there recently, they said, you know what? We don't eat pets, but you know
what we do do? We vote. 500,000 Haitians in Florida. Here from the Miami Herald, they wrote the following, big mistake, South Florida Haitians
slammed Donald Trump's false claim about immigrants eating pets. As we said on the Midas
Touch social media accounts, it will be the sweetest karma in history if Trump loses Florida
because of lying during a debate and continuing to perpetrate that lie thereafter,
that Haitians and Haitian migrants are eating people's pets and that he wants to take the
Haitians and send them back to Venezuela and deport people who are here lawfully.
That's what Donald Trump said. Think about this. In 2020, Donald Trump only beat President Biden in Florida by 371,686 votes. 372,000 votes. There's over 500,000 Haitians who live in the South Florida area who get this.
They vote. Also, as Ben Friedman says, Donald Trump's margin in 2020, 371,000.
Already, the Florida Dems in August alone have knocked on over 400,000 doors.
The ground game is real. Here is Nikki Freed, who chairs the Florida Democrats,
along with the Democratic National Committee Chairman Jamie Harrison. They say Florida's
in play. Play this clip. Hello, I'm Nikki Freed, chair of the Florida Democratic Party,
and I am here tonight in the 305 because we know that the road to the White House goes through Miami-Dade County.
And to make sure that the entire country knows that Florida is in play, we've got the boss here, DNC Chairman Jamie Harrison.
Folks, Florida, Florida, Florida.
Don't sleep on Florida.
We know for a fact that when we fight, we win.
And we had a room full of people, a room full of fighters, and we are happy about it.
Not only are they from Miami-Dade County,
but they're also from Orlando, Florida.
And the only way we're going to win
this state and take it back is ensuring
that Democrats and all people
go out and vote for freedom, vote
for justice, and that's what we're going to do
this November.
But October 7th, voter registration deadline,
so make sure you've got a plan to
register to vote and then vote on November 5th. When we fight, we win. Here's one more clip of
Nikki Freed saying Democrats are going to win Florida. Here, play this clip. Hello, everybody.
I'm Nikki Freed, chair of the Florida Democratic Party here in Orange County with another incredible
chair in the state of North Carolina.
Anderson Clayton is here in the state of Florida to make sure that we together are
taking back this country.
And getting out to vote.
So please, Florida, make sure that you do.
We both in North Carolina and Florida sit in super minorities right now for
the Democrats in our state legislature.
And we've seen abortion rights be stripped from folks across our states this last
year with Republicans that have taken over our states. So please make sure that you get out and vote, take
shifts with the Florida Democratic Party and let's do everything we can to defeat Donald
Trump this November. That's right, because when North Carolina
and Florida go, Kamala Harris, game over. So we'll see you in November.
And Democrats are being led in Florida by some great candidates up and down the ballot.
Like in Florida's 13th congressional district right now, it's occupied by Ana Paulina Luna, MAGA extremist.
She wears the AR-15 pin.
She was like the swimsuit model before the MAGA swimsuit model who would perform with those performative AR-15 images in the bikinis.
That's her claim to fame in MAGA World.
Also, she has a very George Santo-ish type of story in the sense of she has multiple names,
and who's her family, and where's she really really from and just a very shady background.
But here's Whitney Foxx, who's the Democratic candidate who lots of people believe is going
to beat Anna Paulina Luna.
And just take a look at what Whitney Foxx has to say here.
Play the clip.
I decided to run for Congress because a fire lit inside of me when I had a baby.
The medical bills, the lack of paid parental leave,
the lack of affordable childcare.
Surely we're not all okay with this being the way
we start American families.
That coupled with the fact that now my two daughters
are growing up with fewer rights than I did.
So I decided I had to stand up and do something about it.
And that's why I'm fighting for my community
here in District 13.
And folks, look, you know it's bad for Donald Trump when the Miami Heat need to put out a statement like this. The Miami Heat staff,
like Miami itself, is a diverse and brilliant mix of vibrant cultures, including many members
of our Haitian community. The false narrative surrounding them is hurtful and offensive and has sadly made
innocent people targets of hateful speech and physical threats. Our Haitian employees, fans,
and friends deserve better. Powerful statement right there. Your nighttime bedroom temperature

this episode. I mentioned that Donald Trump was out in Uniondale, Long Island saying horrific
things about Haitians and other migrants. And so in response, the Haitian community leadership and Haitian community
activists had a message for Donald Trump, for Donald Trump and J.D. Vance. Here, play this clip.
Very disturbed by these comments because J.D. Vance, instead of retracting and apologizing,
he's doubling down and changing his story and saying, oh, constituents are calling my office
saying that they saw someone eat a dog or cat or ate Garfield.
I don't think so. He's lying.
I challenge, I ask the media to reach out to Senator Vance and ask him for the records of his legislative office.
We want to see what constituents are actually saying these lies.
Reba, who works in my office, we record the phone number and name of every person that calls our office.
That's what a legislative office is supposed to do and so we're going to ask jd vance show us the proof because there is no proof you're a liar you're lying about such good people that's
unchristian how dare you how dare you go to? You don't deserve to be a senator.
I'm asking Elon Musk.
I know you were in space today, but honestly, you act like a space cadet.
How dare you double down on these lies and spread these fallacies and spread these lies through Twitter or X or whatever you call it.
You're not even American american you're south african and the allegations are that it was a south
african who was a who was uh taking the goose and the geese whatever the duck so you know
these statements are completely false and there's no way they could justify or verify thank you
you know and as i mentioned before i mean you've got Donald Trump out there, again, saying he's going to deport Haitians who are here lawfully to Venezuela.
Here, play this clip.
I can say this.
We will do large deportations from Springfield, Ohio.
Large deportations.
We're going to get these people out.
We're bringing them back to Venezuela. I think AOC puts it best where she goes, you know what? You people, you xenophobic people,
you don't even know where Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Guatemala is on a map. So don't be
lecturing me on all of your xenophobic racist policies. AOC nails it here.
Play this clip.
Days like today are really deeply felt.
I'm going to speak briefly as the highest ranking Latino or Latina on this committee.
We hear a lot of rhetoric on both sides about the issue of immigration.
And it is precisely because it is seen as a border issue that millions of people suffer over and over and over again.
It does matter that she was that Vice President Harris was not the board, quote unquote unquote border czar. And let me explain to you why. Because what Vice President Harris has been tasked with under President Biden's administration is addressing the root
causes of immigration. Once you have millions of people at the southern border of the United States,
you've lost. We need to understand why people are coming to the southern border of the United States and mitigating that in the first place.
And frankly, when we turn the page and look at what happened in the Trump administration, we have to see where folks are coming from. hearing from people who cannot point out Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Guatemala on a map, telling
us about how to mitigate the millions of people seeking refuge.
We should be eliminating the reasons why people are seeking refuge in the first place.
Under the Trump administration, Donald Trump participated in what we saw in Venezuela and many of the regime change activities that were happening there. Not targeting specifically the Maduro regime, but the Venezuelan people, innocent Venezuelan people that are being starved of food and basic resources.
That is what is contributing to a destabilizing environment and part of what they are fleeing.
And that is not to conflate the Venezuelan people with the Maduro regime.
And then right here, Vice President Kamala Harris's VP pick,
Governor Walz is like,
and then you have J.D. Vance
who admits to making up stories
and lying about migrants,
lying about the Haitian community
in order to accomplish what?
To do what?
Just to be racist
and to gin up support
amongst what you're just MAGA white base here.
This is what Governor Walz had to say.
Play this clip.
This last weekend, Donald Trump's running mate, Senator Vance, did a really remarkable
thing.
He got called out by a fair and free press that are a part of our democracy and fundamental
to the freedoms of this country, he got called out by that press about telling vicious, hurtful lies about immigrants.
But he did something. He did something. He told the truth.
They asked him if maybe it was an accident. He didn't mean it.
No, he said, I admit it. I'm willing to create stories to spread fear,
to drum up support for us. Now, the only thing amongst this group is, no kidding,
we've been seeing that for years. Yeah, but at least they admitted it. At least they admitted
it. So you got to ask, what other things are they making up stories about? I think you know. I think you know. The reason you do that is, is because if you told
what you really stood for, no one would vote for you. And that includes the folks who think that,
because you know you have your neighbors who are out there. Hell, we have them. We have them in
our families, don't we know? So, but that's what happens. And I don't really like Donald Trump, but I like what he stands for. Oh, really?
Suppressing women's reproductive rights. Is that the one you want?
Or is it cutting taxes for billionaires while you get screwed in the middle class? Is that the one
you like? Or is it ignoring real problems like our children being shot dead in schools? Is it
those things or whatever? So I think for all of us, the truth here, you know who Donald Trump is.
You know the pain that he caused.
Donald Trump's not stopping.
He's posting more cat memes.
Kamala hates me.
Don't let them eat us types of memes.
I mean, how despicable can you get right here?
He's spoken Wilmington, North Carolina in the past few days. And here he
said that the migrants are attacking villages. Where, Donald, what villages? Are you the
villages? What are you even saying? Here, play the clip. And what a shame that is, right? What
a shame that is. And you see how bad it's getting when you look at what's going on with the migrants attacking villages and cities all throughout the Midwest in particular right now. But it's all over.
Well, I know the villages. Here are the villages right here. This is happening on a fairly frequent basis right now where there are golf cart parades spontaneously erupting to support Vice President Kamala Harris.
Here's one of the more recent ones. Play this clip.
I'm sorry.
Yeah, I'll take some.
Pretty dressed. So again, do the math. The exact number of Haitians living in Florida, 544,000, give or take.
President Biden lost by 371,000 votes. You add that and then this coalition of Republicans plus Democrats plus
independents layer on it that you have a critical vote on DeSantis' six-week abortion ban.
And remember Donald Trump flip-flop? Donald Trump first said
that he was going to vote against the six-week abortion ban, and now he says he wants to keep
the six-week abortion ban in place. Here, remember when Donald Trump said this? Play it.
You're voting yes or no on Amendment 4 in Florida.
So I think six weeks, you need more time than six weeks. I've disagreed with that right from
the early primaries when I heard about it. I disagreed with that right from the early primaries
when I heard about it. I disagreed with it.
At the same time, the Democrats are radical
because the nine months is just a ridiculous situation,
where you can do an abortion in the ninth month.
And, you know, some of the states, like Minnesota
and other states, have it where you can actually
execute the baby after birth.
And all of that stuff is unacceptable. So I'll be voting no
for that reason. And in addition to a referendum on women's reproductive rights on the ballot,
you also have in Florida a marijuana referendum on the ballot as well. So that's going to drive
a ton of turnout here. I wouldn't be surprised if we've got many, many, many new
voters in Florida, people who haven't voted previously. So keep your eyes on Florida.
