BENNY JOHNSON (HOST): Harmeet Dhillon, who, of course, is a favorite of our show ... she said that she is going to be suing in order to ensure that there are reparations for hard-working Americans who have been disenfranchised through Eric Holder and Barack Obama's racism in creating congressional ghettos and DEI districts. Your take on that, how should Harmeet Dhillon ensure that maps are as fair and equitable as possible for the 2026 elections?

MIKE DAVIS (GUEST): I love Harmeet Dhillon, and I always say this: my favorite Americans are women and minority conservatives because they are absolutely the most bold and fearless people on the planet. They're great -- whether it's Byron Donalds or Harmeet Dhillon -- these are the types of people who I want in these offices. People who are going to fight every day for America, for the West, for our way of life, for our Judeo-Christian traditions. Harmeet is phenomenal. 

...

The best thing about Harmeet, the best thing about this new version of the Trump administration, is prior Republicans, George W. Bush Republicans — and I worked in the George W. Bush White House — we were, those Republicans who were so scared of being labeled as racists or sexist or homophobe or transphobe or whatever phobe the Democrats come out with. And my response to those Republicans is to say to those Democrats, ‘Go to hell. You're not going to be able to use your Marxist division and cow us like you've done in the past.' We are the party of opportunity for poor Black people trapped in these Democrat ghettos and these DEI districts. Democrats want to keep minorities trapped in intergenerational poverty. They want victims. They want misery. Because that's the Marxist playbook. So, people like Harmeet Dhillon, people like Byron Donalds, they are the all-stars.

JOHNSON: So, Harmeet should go full speed ahead in bringing the full force of the federal government against these DEI districts and lawfare Democrats who want to sue in order to create these congressional ghettos?

DAVIS: Absolutely. The Supreme Court just ruled that we, you can have political gerrymandering, but you cannot have racial gerrymandering. It was a brilliant opinion by Justice Sam Alito, and Harmeet can go after every one of these districts, these House districts where these Democrats in these blue states intentionally sliced and diced the population to have a DEI district, to have some loser Democrat minority be the House representative and go grift and make millions of dollars and do nothing for their poor Black or poor Hispanic constituents.
