| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Wall Builder Show. We take on the hot topics of the day from a biblical, historical, and constitutional perspective. We're agreeing with David Barton and Tim Barton. And our website is wallbuilders.com. That's our main website. And then if you want to catch up on radio programs, wallbuilders. And that's the one to send to your friends and family so they can get educated as well. It's not a Friday. So we're not doing a good news Friday. It's Wednesday. But it's kind of like we're just catching up on all the news today, guys. No interview today. But man, so much has happened even in the last 24 hours with the Iran thing five-day pause we had |
| 0:40.5 | Heidi on yesterday how did he say John on yesterday talking about Joe Kent and then you know he comes |
| 0:45.2 | out saying he's going to testify for the defense and the Charlie Kirk assassination trial |
| 0:50.6 | yeah just a lot of crazy stuff happening a couple of big Supreme Court one decision, and then one that they just had a hearing on. So let's get started. I'm thinking left to right. Or, yeah, literally left to right. West Coast, left coast, to right. David, you said before we came on, something out of California you want to talk about too so why don't we start there that's the |
| 1:10.9 | right coast bro it depends on whether you got your back where are you standing yeah it's right |
| 1:17.4 | it's it's whether you're looking toward Texas or away from Texas it's it's real easy so this kind of |
| 1:24.6 | and to set this up I want to go to the Supreme Court case because they both |
| 1:30.0 | have to do with elections, what I got on both these items. The Supreme Court case that they heard |
| 1:34.0 | yesterday was out of Mississippi, and Mississippi allows you to count votes if they come in five |
| 1:41.9 | days after the election as long as they're postmarked |
| 1:44.3 | before the election so you have to wait five days before you announce your results and there's |
| 1:49.5 | that that came through COVID and there was about 18 states that started doing that at that point in time |
| 1:54.0 | and so the the Republican National Committee the Libertarian Party others have filed suit and said, you can't do that. It's election day. It's not going to be after that. As a matter of fact, that was one of the points that Justice Alito made. He said, hey, we used to have election days. Now we have election week. Now we have election month and several weeks. And so this stuff can go on for a long time. So the question was, do you just have |
| 2:19.0 | elections on election day? And typically, they have left a lot of that decision up to the states. |
| 2:24.8 | And that's one of the areas that the states do have some latitude constitutionally. |
| 2:28.7 | But it's gotten more and more where that system of having the elections that spread out a week or a week and a half |
| 2:37.0 | after it's really hard on candidates everything else now i'll point at the time of thomas |
| 2:41.4 | jefferson and john adams election their presidential vote counting went on for several months |
| 2:46.5 | because the states all had different days of elections and there were weeks apart. |
| 2:54.6 | And so once you find out what one state does, you can go campaign and others. |
| 2:57.7 | It's nothing like we think about today, that's for sure. |
| 3:04.3 | Well, it's probably also worth noting, even though, as you're saying, when you have the opportunity to go campaign in the next state, |
