The Ron Edwards American Experience: Colorado Gubernatorial Candidate Victor Marx - 261001

Prepare for launch in 3, 2, 1. And away we go. Say A. Say M. Say E. Say R. Say I. Say C. Say A. Say M. Ladies and gentlemen, it's the Ron Edwards American Experience Talk Show, where our unalienable rights are celebrated. And now, your radio refreshment, Ron Edwards. Well, good day, good day, good day. Hello, and how are you? I'm Ron Edwards. Welcome to the Ron Edwards American Experience. Back again, we're back again, we're back again. Lots of interesting things going on. And, you know, there's a lot of frustrating things going on, too. One of them is the Supreme Court's stupid decisions. And their most recent stupid, retarded decision, dealing with birthright citizenship. And they called it the court of last resort, the Supreme Court. They blundered again, yep, undermining its credibility while devaluing American citizenship by a 5-4-raise-a-thinly-thought-out decision. The court declared a new constitutional right to citizenship for millions of illegal border crossers, even tourists, and those on worker visas. a constitutional right that was never conceived by the framers who wrote the Constitution and Americans of all periods who believe in the historic American nation, which now will be massively undermined because of the decision by the Supreme Court. And the reason why the Supreme Court and people like John Thune are making certain decisions that are negatively impacting our sovereignty is is because of their personal hatred of Donald Trump. And the Supreme Court justices that are helping to undermine our sovereignty were appointed by President Trump. So just because someone says they're a conservative Republican, you still can't trust them. Because like liberals, they will say, you know what, I don't like that guy. He's not a fellow globalist or this, that, and the other. And hey, and they will try to harm all of us. Because of one individual they dislike. Because he's trying to do the right thing concerning our republic. And then you have a lot of people that were supporters of President Trump, voted for him, who are getting a bit ticked off with him because things are not getting done. But they ignore the fact that in many cases, just like this, there are others who undermine the president. And he can't get things fully done. Now, we have a situation where, you know, our country could be gone permanently within the next 30 years. Because the Supreme Court saw fit to say, you know what? To screw Trump, we're going to screw America and American sovereignty. We'll get into more of that later. And speaking of lunacy, did you hear about this case in Maine? Maine of all places, where this lunatic tried to run over a conservative reporter. Now, this conservative reporter was standing on what looks like a tree lawn in front of, just in a particular area. And he was, first, this guy, one of the patients at this hospital, he rolls up behind him and speaks with him and You know, the reporter asked him after the, you know, the little pleasantries, can I help you, et cetera, et cetera. And the guy says, nope. And he drives away. Well, within 30 seconds, the guy is barreling down on him to run him over. I mean, whammo, just missed him. And he was blessed to be able to get the somehow he was quick enough to get the driver's license. I mean, not the driver. Yeah, the license on the vehicle. Crazy. Or the license plate number. Crazy stuff, my friends. And you want people wonder, especially some Christians, have been wondering why I've been saying for years and years that people on our side have to be physically prepared because more and more people on the left are taking it upon themselves to reconfigure what rights are, who has them, And who's in control of those rights. Meaning, what the founders set forth, hey, you have freedom of speech, freedom of religion, etc., etc., etc. And if you don't like what a person is saying, all you have to do is walk away. Walk away. Okay? Ignore them. If you do, you should be free to hear them. And they not be obstructed. Another situation, we're liberals. are just, you know, I'm losing respect for liberals more and more every single day. The only thing I, when I think about a liberal, the only thing I think about, because I have to answer to God, I pray for their salvation, and that's it. That's it. But other than that, Katie barred the door against them. It was a situation in a Walmart, and this lady was She had her phone out. She was recording. And she was not looking directly at people. She was literally in a section looking at jeans or whatever. And okay, okay, it's a public place. Yeah, it's a private business. And if the owner or the manager says stop, she would have stopped. She stated that. But what happened was these Muslim sales clerks happened to walk by in front of her and saw that she was– minding her own business, filming the section she was looking through, literally looking through the clothes. And all of a sudden, they start chirping at her, saying, you cannot film. You can't do that. How dare you? And they're just both like in concert and stereo, just chirping at the lady. And the lady says, look, I have a right to film. You don't like me filming? Get out of the focus. Get back out of the focus. Keep moving. Leave me alone. One of them came real close to her saying, I'm Muslim. You can't film like that. And she reminded them, wait a minute, this is the United States of America. You as a Muslim don't have the right to come and tell me what to do, especially since I'm not breaking any laws that I know of. And so they're going back and forth, They call for a manager. The manager doesn't do anything. All of a sudden, this big, fat, liberal, white, liberal, fat female walks in and gets in the way in front of the woman who had the phone. And just to get in the way to protect the Muslims, who were not being harmed, by the way. The Muslims kept getting in front of the lady of her phone And if anyone's been in a Walmart, those are pretty big stores. And if you're focused on a particular row of items, and people have to, you have to work to get in front of a person when they're filming directly at something. You've got to work a little bit. And they just did it. They just kept picking at her. And like I said, this big, fat, whale-sized, leftist female walks in front of the, tries to get in between the lady with her phone and the Muslims. And by the way, the lady was, before that happened, the lady was actually walking away and they were following her, meaning they were behind her. Even when they were behind her, out of the focus of the phone, they were still chirping at her. Started selling wolf tickets, you know. And I like the fact that she stood up to them. She used a few choice words, yada, yada, yada. And no one tried to stop her from doing what she was doing, which I applauded. The manager didn't come and say, well, you have to leave because you're filming or whatever. They didn't do that. And that was a good thing. But, I mean, leftists from whatever position they come from, they're becoming more and more emboldened in our republic. The reason why they're becoming more and more emboldened, because most people that are conservatives and Christians don't stand up like this lady did against these two Muslims. Most of them cower away, and if you're amongst Christians and you stand up, they'll try to pull you down and say, oh, you don't want to upset somebody. You don't want to upset... Don't, don't, don't, don't draw attention to yourself. Oh, no. Heaven's to Mercator, you can't do that. They want you to cower down. And then they wonder why all of a sudden, oh, my gosh. Because people, people are, work by habit. If they're used to picking on you, they're going to continue to pick on you and it's going to multiply. It's going to get much worse. But anyway, we've got a special guest today, too, on the show. His name is Victor Marks. He's running for the governorship of the great state of Colorado. He's going to tell us why when we return.

This is the Ron Edwards American Experience. Welcome back, my friends. And thanks for tuning in from throughout America and around the world. Our special guest today, Victor Marks. He's running for governor of the beautiful state of Colorado. Colorado, that is. And, you know, Colorado is a very beautiful place. Colorado Springs, Steamboat, Golden Colorado, the mountains, you name it. It's a very beautiful place to visit. And it's technically a beautiful place to live in. However, there have been changes in recent years and things have kind of gone blue and destructive in several ways. And there are people like Victor Marks who say, you know what? Enough is enough. And he went beyond saying enough is enough. He's running for the governorship of that great and beautiful state. And we welcome him here to the Runaways American Experience. Hello, sir, and welcome. Thanks for having me. I appreciate it. Well, we appreciate you and your efforts to do something good for the state of Colorado. What, may I ask, and by the way, I want to tell folks that. Victor Marks is a minister. He is a U S Marine veteran, and we do thank him for his services to this country and founder of the Colorado Springs based nonprofit, all things possible ministries. And, uh, when you think about, um, your candidacy in such a blue state now, um, you have to hang on to that, um, mantra that all things are possible. And, um, Could you tell me right off the bat, what is it that drove you to this point where you said, you know what, I've got to run for governorship because this thing is sinking? Well, I think you hit it right on the head. Our state has been in decline, managed decline by a one-party system for the last eight years and longer. But for us, just like you said in the opening, this beautiful state that has streams and mountains and plains and is rich in agriculture and ranching to the ski lifts, you know, and Loveland Basin and Aspen, all the beauty of this state is being destroyed by taking the morale and the heart and affordability out of people's lives. When I say morale, law enforcement, they are not allowed to do their job here. This has become one of the most crime-ridden, dangerous states in our country, Colorado. And it's because of my opponent, who is the Attorney General, and he has doubled the size of his agency both in numbers and budget. And he has spent so much energy, and he brags on suing President Trump 80-something times now in his eight-year tenure. So for us, for my wife, my family, our organization, we just said, all right, we have to make a decision. Either we pack up and leave, which, let me tell you, this is the first time that there are more people leaving Colorado than staying. I mean, we're in a desperate free fall to stop the destruction of the state. So we just said, either we stay and fight or pack up and leave to more friendly or states that respect our set second amendment rights that will support our freedoms and the constitution. And we're, Children can grow up and feel safe, you know, without the crisis of human trafficking out here and fentanyl trafficking. And through a lot of prayer, through a lot of prayer, we decided this is what I'm called to do. Before we get into some more of the issues, I've got to ask you, um, Are you getting much support from Christians and churches throughout the state? Thanks for asking that question. I would say we are getting. support and we are getting Christians out of the pews to be involved what we've created is a movement that is shocking everyone including my opponents and let me tell you how When I stepped into the race with no political experience, an outsider, someone who has strong leadership that's been forged in real life work from being a former part owner in a construction company in Hawaii to building almost two and a half decades in a credible organization that provides relief for trauma victims, and helps law enforcement, military, children, women. We've been so effective in what we've done around the world and here in the U.S., but when I stepped into this race, everyone came against us. When I say everyone, I'm talking the many churches, Christians, the GOP, conservative media, of course, the left, Democrats, because I simply was not their choice. Do you know there were over 20 candidates, just in the Republican race in the primary, and by God's grace, a great team that we built out, sticking to our convictions and not compromising, including dirty politics, smear campaigns, although they've been flooding on us since they won, we kept our integrity, and brother, we won. Against all odds, we won. And that's where, it's an underdog story that God gets glorified, that's for sure. Yeah, I do remember seeing a clip of you saying that you believe that if you won the first leg, the primary, that you believe that God had mandated that you continue and that you would win in the November election. And we're pulling for you. People I know all over the country are pulling for you because this would be such a, I would think it would be spiritually uplifting and very encouraging because it is such a blue state now. And I want to ask you a question, though. We've got about a minute or two before we get to a hard break. So if we have to stop and we'll finish on the other side. But I want to get your take on the fact that one of the reasons why states are so blue is because of the education system and because you did mention there were even churches that were against you. The kind of preaching you get in the pulpit that don't seem to stand strongly on good principles and therefore you have a wishy-washy Christian community and you have a strong blue community that is against us. that which is good, and those who are trying to do good. What say you? I agree 100%. There's a lot of compromise in the church. I'm thankful that, you know, we've had churches and organizations step up to support us, but there are so many more that are, I mean, Bible teaching, you know, churches that still believe there should be a separation between church and state, which I have to say It was never meant to keep people of faith out of the public arena, but it was to keep the government out of our faith and how we worship God. But, you know, we have to pray for and educate church leaders, and oftentimes the members of the congregation simply bypass the pastor if he's scared of losing people due to taking a position on moral issues. And that's what matters. When I see people not taking positions on moral issues as Christians, people who stand against us and our values will stand and they'll overwhelm us. We're going to have to hold it right there. And we're with Victor Marks. And we'll be right back after this. The Ron Edwards American Experience. Your daily Liberty Newswire.

On today's page from the Albert's Notebook, our enemies, both foreign and domestic, do not want the U.S. to win the AI or energy race. Why? Because the current Trump administration is not entangled with the globalist elites who seek to massively reduce Earth's population, particularly here in the U.S., But when you consider America's vast resources, mighty military, economic power, and our national recognition of our inalienable rights, which do come from God, the U.S. may soon become an impenetrable republic that potentially could dominate our planet for over 100 years. President Trump understands that the U.S. must reestablish manufacturing. and greatly increase domestic energy and agricultural production. Our national security must never, ever be in the hands of our adversaries again. Then, future generations will not suffer the indignity of being reliant upon other nations for anything. However, and hopefully, the globalist maritime system will be wiped out with the United States of America once again being the envy of the world as one nation under God.

I'm Ron Edwards, and of course, you're listening to the Ron Edwards American Experience. Our special guest today is Victor Marks. Yep, he, an American author, minister, and political candidate. And he's the Republican nominee for governor of the beautiful state of Colorado in the 2026 election. Well, I'm going to call you governor. You know, I believe in faith, and so I'm just going to slap that on you right now. Go around. That's what I'm talking about. And so I understand that you're in support of law enforcement. What is it that law enforcement cannot do now that you would like to see changed? Great question. The laws currently produced through bad legislative policy, in essence, just handcuffs law enforcement from doing their job. It's a soft on crime. I mean, right now, 70% of child rapists get probation in this state under my opponent's administration. That's horrific. And criminals tend to get more rights than victims. So we have bad judges on benches, not all of them, but some. We have just an entire system that, well, caters to criminals. I'll give you an example. My own daughter, our youngest daughter, we have five children, and she was 21 when she was assaulted, sexually assaulted in a parking lot, broad daylight, in a nice area of town, coming out of a business, doing a little shopping, right in our car. She resisted, and the guy fled in his car. She filmed his vehicle leaving. Now, it was a 45-minute response time. from the Colorado Springs Police Department. 45 minutes, a victim there. And I'm not blaming the police department, but it's been this systemic dysfunction of minimizing law enforcement, not having full capacity. They're having trouble with retention because good officers don't want to stay And they've been having trouble with recruitment. So here's an understaffed, in my opinion, they could be better equipped organization that gets to my daughter's assault, but it takes 45 minutes. Yeah, that's crazy work. Yeah, so when it comes to. No law enforcement officer wants to be delayed that bad. But that's the reality of it. Man, that is awful. And then, you know, what I do find is that in many cases where in locales where this is the practice where, you know, law enforcement's arms are tied behind their back, when individuals take it upon themselves to protect themselves from these knuckle draggers, guess what happens? Guess who gets in trouble? The guy that was protecting themselves. Exactly. They've minimized our Second Amendment rights, and they've made it very difficult for good, honest people to live in a state that, well, I mean, we're in the top five of one of the most dangerous states. Again, this used to be the fit state. People would come here to get in shape, clean air, the You know, the mountains, the Olympic Center, and now people refer to it as a fentanyl state where cartels have had way too much ability to set up shop. And again, if you don't have a governor and an attorney general that really put an emphasis on punishing repeat offenders, because this is what I hear from law enforcement all over the state, Ron. They just go, even if we arrest somebody, they'll be out. They'll be out of jail before the paperwork is inked, done. The morale is so low on law enforcement, so I just keep telling them, hang on, help is on the way, and they're all grateful. I don't care what agency or department in law enforcement is, They're grateful for me running to win when the attorney general is technically the top cop here in our state. But they know what a horrible job he's been doing. Wow. You also want to cut taxes and create good paying jobs. And how do you think you can do that when I hope it is my hope, but I don't know if the legislature will also turn red. I don't know, but it may. But if it doesn't, how would you get around that and be able to create a better economic atmosphere in Colorado? Well, we have an incredible 100, my first 100-day plan, and it's at my website, victor2026. com. You know, the position and authority the governor has to appoint between 3,000 and 4,000 people to positions that would help change the mindset of really how to run Colorado. And yeah, we have the Senate and the legislation. If we don't have a better representation through this election, but I think we will because the number of people coming out to vote is going to shock everyone. And, but even if not, I have the power of the veto pen. I have the, constitutional right and position to start changing out agency heads, boards and commissions, and revamp our system. Because Colorado doesn't have a money problem. It has a spending problem. And that's where, on day one, we'll start an assessment and full audit of every major agency. We're going to hold people accountable. We're going back to what's called a zero-based budget. which each agency, they have to prove to us what they need the money for, not just rolling it over from the year before. And then we hold accountable if what we're spending is beneficial to Coloradans. And I will tell you this, everybody knows it, there's a tremendous amount of inefficiency, which leads to waste, but there's also frauds. that we believe is happening. And when we clean that up, it will make the state affordable. And when we help law enforcement out, it'll make the state safer. Then businesses want to come back. Our businesses can thrive. And we'll make the state affordable by good leadership principles being applied to areas that they haven't been for years. Well, one thing that was kind of heartbreaking that I saw when we were there not long ago was the homeless population in Denver. And that was kind of sad to see because Denver has always been one of those cities that I've admired. And Colorado as well is one of those states that everyone seems to have liked. And to go there and see what I saw, the tents and everything. And at that time... Tina Peters was locked up and all that kind of stuff going on. How do you tend to deal with the, would you deal with the homeless situation? Yeah, yeah. Well, the homeless situation is indicative of the lack of leadership. You know, you see it in California, you see it here, and to me, it is a two-pronged approach. Homelessness isn't a lack of housing for people in the street. It tends to be an addiction issue. And we will, and we have a plan in place, to provide a pathway for people who are homeless due to addictions to get help they need. And it's, you know, using nonprofits, church organizations, because the government isn't the answer to the challenges of society. The government's just to put in place to provide safety and our core necessities that we need. But it's the people that have to rise up and help. So with addiction, there are so many good organizations that are overlooked, but they're doing the real work to help people get a pathway to freedom. And the other, of course, is a law enforcement issue with finding, arresting, and traffickers to keep them locked up instead of rotating doors. We're going to have to hold it right there. We'll be right back with our guest, Victor Marks, on the Ron Edwards American Experience. Nothing from nothing to nothing. You got to have something if you want to be with me.

Media, is not the biggest, but your voices and actions are, so don't give up. This is Nate Hara, and you are listening to the Ron Edwards American Experience. And it ain't no easy way, no, there ain't no. Welcome back, my friends. I'm Ron Edwards and our guest today, Victor Marks, candidate for the governorship of the beautiful state of Colorado. Mr. Marks, we do wish you the best. And are there any final remarks you'd like to say and maybe how folks can get in contact with you if they want to contribute to your campaign? Thank you. Absolutely. I would say that there's a groundswell here that is shocking everyone. It's a movement. It's beyond an election because people know what is at stake. The DSA is the Democrat Socialist of America. They already have people in legislative positions, and they are wanting to take over the state. So Republicans, unaffiliates, and, believe it or not, moderate Democrats are showing us support because they do not want more of the same. They want an outsider, someone who is a disruptor, but has integrity and real-life experience. This is why they're coming against us so hard nationally. The New York Times just dropped a hit piece on us. They're twisting. They're doing what they're doing to try to stop us, but they can't. We have people praying all over the state daily around the country, and we've got an exciting momentum. If people would pray, and yes, we do need the support because that helps us to win. They can go to victor2026. com, see our platform, what we're doing. And if they can make a little donation of five or ten bucks, it matters to us. Thank you. Sir, and thank you for taking time out of your busy campaign to be with us today. And I can tell you that I know of a sizable group. They're called the Zechariah 2-5 Prayer Warriors. And you are on the list of prayers that they cover today. On a regular basis. And so I know you're getting. A lot of prayer. Thank you. That's what will make the difference. And we're standing for our faith regardless of the persecution. We didn't exclude God. We put him at the front and center. And even consultants said, don't do it. And I said, no way. We're not going to compromise on anything. We'll show excellence in policy, leadership. But we are people of faith. And we love people. It doesn't matter... last thing, atheists come up to me and say, hey, I saw you on the debate, and the final 60 seconds of that live debate, when they gave you time to do whatever you wanted, you chose to pray. Not put down the other opponents, not talk about how great you were, you chose to pray. And he goes, that's why I'm voting for you. And I'm like, wait a minute, he held that faith and he said, a man of that conviction and will not be compromised when he wins the governor's seat. So that's why I'm voting for you. So I would encourage anybody of faith out there, don't compromise. Don't put your light under a bushel. Live boldly and proud of your faith and love people. Don't compromise. So God gets the glory. And I thank you for the opportunity to be on your show. Thank you so much. And maybe we can do it again before the election. But it's been a real treat for us, sir. And Godspeed to you and your family. Thank you so much. Take care. Okay, we'll do it. Well, folks, great guest today. Mr. Marks, Victor Marks, that is. And he's running for governorship. And you should check out his website. And man, oh, man, I think he's a winner. and always have ever since he first broke out with his campaign, and I had listened to a lot of the things that he had to say. Yep, that's the kind of leadership we need all across the country, by the way. Men of character, men of God, who have their brains in gear, who understand our Constitution, our way of life, and the way things should be in our country, and that we need a lot more of that. And as we get more people like that, you can be sure that America will be great again. You know, oh boy, I never thought I'd have to see this guy again, but his name is, remember a rhino, Adam Kinzinger, the crying guy? Every time you see him, every other time he'd be crying. I mean, he so hates Donald Trump. I mean, he just breaks down in tears. Adam Kinzinger, he bet on his own Biden pardon Even bet on it. CFTC and Calshi now probing the sham J6 committee star. Because we knew that that J6 committee was a sham. It was based upon lies. And because there's a lot of people who... There were people that I knew of who understood that these people were telling untruths. But they supported those untruths because they agree with the evil. What I mean is they agree with the evil principles. And so they're willing to lie, kill, steal, and destroy just to make sure that the leftists like Kinzinger, yeah, he's a Republican, but he's a leftist. You can be a Republican and a leftist. And then you have people like John Thune. He's a real piece of work. He bragged about, hey, we're not passing the Save America Act. What are you going to do now, President Trump, as he closed a down shop for the elections, for everyone to go out and campaign? Now, the thing is, I wish that someone of high value, when it's time for Thune to run again, will run against him. Because people like him, it's dunderheads like John Thune and all the other rhinos that need to be cleared out They are just as bad as any Democrat you can find. Just because you have an R in front of your name as your political party does not mean you are any better. In fact, in a sense, you're worse. Because if you are supposedly conservative, you understand those values, and if you choose to run on those values, but your goal is to undermine those values, you are a hypocrite, and that makes you worse than than the people that are running as honest Democrat socialists. Because they're not hiding it. They used to hide their socialism. Because you can go all the way back to the days of Ronald Reagan. Even during his administration, there were at least about 70 communist-oriented individuals in Congress then. But they kept a low profile. Because they would have been chewed up and spit out. But as more generations, one after another, of millions of students come out of government schools, less and less prepared to be Americans, but are more globalist-oriented, more socialist-oriented, more and more so with each generation. We're playing a game here now, beat the clock. Or beat the generations. Because there will come a time if there is not concerted effort to head it off, there will come a time when the socialists are in a complete majority. And then they'll be running everything and then they will be in charge of running this country literally into the ground or on top of the ash heap of history. And so we have choices. We also have a lot of work to do. And that's okay. All we have to do is choose the right thing, choose the right way, and work to secure it. And if we do that, we will have victory. Your children won't have to worry about a broken down society, a third world existence. Your daughters won't have to worry about being forced to put on a hijab or beaten to a pulp because that's the rule of law under Sharia. Like it is already. It's already in America. In Dearbornistan, Michigan. In Hamtramck. I believe in Plano, Texas. Yeah. So it's already being allowed for some retarded reason to even be exercised in our country. And we need to do what a few countries around the world are doing. We should start off, boom, tomorrow. No more hijabs in our country. None. You cannot wear a hijab. Just chip away. Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. And explain why we are not a Muslim nation. We weren't found on those issues. Muslims tried to fight us when this was a brand new nation. Under the Thomas Jefferson administration, he had to go send guys over there to kick their butts and shut them down. So, knowing that history, well, some of us do. there should be an understanding that, wait a minute, people that come from the philosophy that wanted to destroy this country at its very beginning, it should be understood that it's retarded to allow them to come into this country and bring that trash heap philosophy into our country today. I mean, simple stuff, don't you agree? Anyway, now that I see that my time is up, thank you so much for your time. And thanks again for our special guest today, Victor Marks, Colorado candidate for governor. I think he's going to win. Sounds like a winner. Sounds like a great guy. Anyway, I urge you to please pray for your nation. Pray for Mr. Marks. Pray for your family, your friends, and even your enemies that they get it right before it's too late because we all will face judgment one day. Don't forget to treat others the same way you want to be treated. Until next time, I'm Ron Edwards. Excelsior!
