The Republican National Committee (RNC) released today a new episode of "Real America," a podcast hosted by RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel. In the new episode, Chairwoman McDaniel sits down with House Minority Whip Steve Scalise to discuss everything from the real-life impact of Biden and Democrats’ policies to his role as Whip and the importance of taking back the House.
“It is so critical to realize it's not incompetence. This is intentional. This is their worldview. Biden does not want a stronger America. He is running our country, and the policies he's putting in place are intentional,” said Chairwoman McDaniel. “They like to blame COVID for everything. But not everything is COVID’s fault. When you shut down our energy producing ability in this country, it's why gas prices are up, and I think the American people are getting it.”
“If pipelines were bad, why did Biden kill the Keystone Pipeline, but then turn around and green light the Nord Stream 2 pipeline between Russia and Germany?,” questioned Scalise. “It's American jobs he is going after and he is hurting our country.”
In the podcast, Chairwoman McDaniel and Whip Scalise discussed the importance of getting out to vote and how Republicans are leading the fight for election integrity.
“Nobody has an excuse to stay at home. We need people out voting and when they go out voting, also making sure that they're protecting the integrity, the voting system, you get the right outcome. And we saw that in Virginia. We're going to take that model on the road too, and it helps people to remind them, look at what they did in Virginia,” said Scalise. “Everybody's got a vote and we fight for that right for everybody to vote.”
“The only vote that doesn't count is the one you don't cast,” said Chairwoman McDaniel. “In Virginia, the RNC was the key and we had 3,500 shifts of poll watchers before the election, during the 45 day early voting period. We had 500 lawyers on the ground, and we had 98 percent coverage of polling locations from volunteers.”
“Real America” features stories from outside the beltway, highlights Republican leadership and shows how Republican policies are leading America’s comeback and working for real Americans. Chairwoman McDaniel is offering the platform for Republican leaders to share their successes and for listeners to hear real stories from the exciting, leading voices in our Party. Season Two launched this month with the premiere episode featuring House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy.
