On this week's episode of Sunday Uncensored, the boys discuss the latest in the ongoing saga of the House of Representatives, and whether or not it's time to impeach Mitch McConnell. Plus, the guys discuss the recent vote on a bill that could have changed the outcome of the midterms.
00:00:00.000Welcome to our special weekend show, Sunday Uncensored.
00:00:04.000Every week we produce four uncensored episodes of the TimCast IRL podcast exclusively at TimCast.com, and we're going to bring you the most important for our weekend show.

00:01:23.000You know, it's like, if we don't get our act together here, I can promise you one thing, the Democrats, they will govern, because they do govern.
00:01:37.0002-12, no dissension, straight down the line, and when they had a narrow majority in the House, that's the way the votes went down, just boom.
00:03:48.000In terms of just executive action, and Congress has abdicated their authority in this and just giving AUMFs, Authorization for Use of Military Force, open-ended kind of what that means and how they're going to exercise that authority rather than an actual declaration of war.
00:05:18.000And if we lose the house, we're going to come back and we'll get it again and we'll keep moving the ball down the field.
00:05:23.000We're over here trying to throw like Hail Mary's constantly, like we're going to stop this spending, you know, like instead of like making change every time you're in charge, we're throwing like 90 yard passes in the Democrats.
00:05:37.000I mean, just keep moving balls into the red zone constantly.
00:06:02.000This is how we get omnibuses where you wrap All of those into one big bill.
00:06:07.000Those are the bills that are like a thousand pages long.
00:06:10.000Yeah, so you get the omnibus, I mean more than a thousand pages.
00:06:14.000It's the whole budget for the United States government, the discretionary spending, and we just pass it all together.
00:06:20.000One thing that they did do which is notable under McCarthy's watch was the state foreign operations bill.
00:06:28.000Everyone has complained for a long time How do we cut foreign aid and people try to cut foreign aid out of the omnibus?
00:06:35.000I mean, you're trying to pull a thread out of a massive bill.
00:06:38.000Doing their job means putting each appropriations bill that funds the different departments of government on the floor, amending it, and actually going through with a scalpel and removing funding where it needs to go.
00:06:53.000And that's why that state foreign operations bill being on the floor is so important.
00:06:56.000Regular order is how we're going to get government spending back under control, and that's how Congress is actually going to be able to influence U.S.
00:07:06.000policy in this country by The power of the purse.
00:07:09.000That's literally what they're there to do, right?
00:07:14.000And until they do that, they're going to abdicate that power to the executive branch to be able to control, not control, but yeah, control spending in an out of control manner because they're just giving them piles of cash to execute on these programs any way they want.
00:07:32.000I mean, For me, if I'm elected, that's one of the things I'd do different.
00:07:36.000We must get rid of the Department of Education.
00:07:59.000Department of Education must go turn that money back to the states, empower the states to be able to control their own education.
00:08:06.000And this is why the states lack so much power now is because the feds control it all.
00:08:12.000So it's like you want your education money where you're going to do X, Y and Z.
00:08:16.000What about the thing where, and this is something the Biden administration did with a number of executive orders, they had some very specific idea that they wanted to implement across federal government.
00:08:25.000And so they required practically every, well, they required every federal agency to implement it.
00:08:30.000They did this with an executive order about vaccine mandates required to be implemented across every federal agency.
00:08:36.000They did it with, you know, LGBTQ stuff had to be in every single federal agency.
00:08:43.000The same with like, you know, race-based diversity stuff.
00:08:47.000And they require that every federal agency implement different programs.
00:08:53.000And it's like the executive order will come out and then it will say, you know, every agency has to submit to me their plan within 180 days.
00:09:00.000Why does Congress let that kind of stuff go on?
00:09:03.000Yeah, well, and that's one of the other things.
00:09:05.000When you don't go through that, and since I've been state treasurer, that's what I've
00:09:09.000done is exercise the power of the purse to be able to get agencies and also outside actors
00:09:15.000like banks to act in the manner which I think they should interact with us as the state
00:10:59.000It started under the Obama administration when he said that American companies can't manufacture incandescent bulbs, and then they all started coming in from Mexico and Hungary, and they don't last as long, these incandescent bulbs.
00:11:10.000And then Biden said you can't sell them anymore, and you will not believe how many incandescent bulbs I have in my house.
00:11:18.000Yes, this is a huge thing for me, my wife, we hate it.
00:11:50.000I don't know. You really hit on a thing that incenses me.
00:11:53.000Yes, I mean it incenses a lot of That's why I brought up that example, is through the Congressional Review Act, you can vote down any regulation, because they're literally legislating through regulation, any regulation the administration puts out.
00:12:07.000What I would like to see, who knows if this ever happens, but it's something I would push for in Congress, what we do in the West Virginia State Legislature, when we took over in 2014 from the Democrats, Any rule or regulation must be voted on by the legislature.
00:12:22.000So all rules and regulations go back through us and we can approve, amend, or vote down any regulation out there.
00:12:31.000Now I'm sure you'd have to have some type of Uh, ceiling for that in terms of dollar amounts or impact or something like that.
00:12:39.000But something has to happen to get the administrative state under control.
00:12:55.000And like, if the federal government came at West Virginia for having an incandescent light bulb factory, Don't you think that that would just make the administration look particularly stupid?
00:14:58.000That's a really good point and that is what the Israelis and the United States has been saying is that they hide men, material, personnel, and weapons in hospitals, schools, and places like that.
00:15:10.000But that would also suggest that it was an Israeli airstrike.
00:16:33.000That doesn't take away how I feel about this specific thing though.
00:16:37.000But yeah, it's interesting with credibility, but also it's like, I think about that way about our own government too, you know, thinking about false flags.
00:16:44.000I think about what I was saying earlier about Operation Northwoods.
00:16:46.000We were willing to take out our own people to start a war with Cuba to change that narrative, right?
00:16:52.000You know, we were willing to shoot a plane out of the sky or have the mass shooting.
00:16:56.000So it's like nothing's off the table with any of these people.
00:16:58.000Yeah, there's someone in the chat named Anwar who keeps saying that it's like you're you're saying that like Israel You're assuming that Israel dropped the bomb.
00:17:06.000We don't know yet Wait until we figure out what happened and then then we can make comments like that It's just not you can't just say that Israel did it and they bombed the hospital.
00:17:13.000We don't know so don't don't pick sides apparently Iranian FM Amir Abdullahian arrived in Saudi Arabia a little over an hour ago after he tweeted that, you know, the Zionist regime must be stopped, blah blah blah, global unity to target Israel, etc, etc.
00:17:32.000So, I don't know, you know, this is war.
00:17:38.000Majeed tweeted something earlier about an imam... Majeed Nawaz?
00:17:43.000Yeah, pulling down their typical flag and putting up a black flag, which is like very symbolic for... Right, that means it's like holy war or jihad, I think.
00:18:32.000The colonizer narrative, by the way, is one of the most ridiculous and outright falsehoods in this entire narrative that exists that Israel is on occupied land.
00:19:50.000Tim, you mentioned earlier, I think just when you were discussing the escalating conflict over there, you know, get ready.
00:19:56.000And I know that that's probably a very broad term or a broad statement, but, you know, my question really is, is what do people like me do to get ready, right?
00:20:14.000I mean, the powers that be are really seeming like they want to push us into this larger escalating conflict, and that's overseas.
00:20:23.000And then you got, you know, kind of what happened today with the J6 mom, Rachel Powell, that's sentenced to five years in prison and passed a report after Christmas time.
00:20:32.000I mean, it doesn't appear that We have anywhere to hide, right?
00:20:36.000So, you know, for the entire panel, what's the suggestion on us for, you know, how do we prepare?
00:20:57.000Yeah, I mean, we talked about this day of rage issue and we've seen some obviously coordinated indiscriminate killings of civilians around the world as it relates to this.
00:21:09.000What I would do first and foremost is secure yourself and your family.
00:21:13.000And as a fervent supporter of the Second Amendment, I would exercise that to do so.
00:22:03.000It's like food when you're out in the middle of nowhere and you want to eat quick and it's got like iron shavings that you put water in and it oxidizes and heats up.
00:24:24.000So, your Republican opponents have pointed to your former role as a VP at Podesta Group as evidence that you're a part of the Uniparty, and your Wikipedia says you did work for them in Ukraine.
00:24:35.000So, could you tell us about the work you did there, and what can you say to convince the 2nd District that you're not just another Rhino?
00:24:44.000Yeah, I never worked in Ukraine, but I can't control, you know, what people put on Wikipedia at all.
00:24:52.000Yeah, so over a decade ago I did work there after I left the Hill and then quit right after it and what I would say is sometimes in life You go through experiences that help you learn who you want to be, and then sometimes you go through experiences that help you learn who you don't want to be.
00:25:16.000And that's what led me to quit and leave there and get involved.
00:25:25.000Be somebody who has stood so strong as a Republican in the state of West Virginia, had one of the most conservative voting records in the state legislature, been one of the most conservative state treasurers in the country, and I actually learned a lot from that experience and I think it's why I've been so successful Really dismantling a lot of the deep state and a lot of the woke corporations that I've been fighting over the last several years.
00:25:55.000You know, we all have different journeys that get us to where we are right now, and certainly that was part of mine.
00:26:03.000And yeah, it was an interesting life experience that was very informative and really opened my eyes into the level of corruption that there is down there.
00:27:32.000I've been listening to you guys or listening to Tim since 2020 and I'm very proud to see where you've become and see where you guys are at now.
00:28:25.000We have ships out there, our president's going there to talk to one of the... Yeah, Ukraine, we got special forces, our intelligence, our weapons, our money, our training.
00:28:44.000Yeah, I think that we're 100% involved.
00:28:46.000I think that we're probably at a point in the crisis that we cannot identify because we're involved in it.
00:28:55.000But it does feel like things are going to continue to escalate and the U.S.
00:28:59.000has not taken the kind of leadership role that I would have expected this nation to take.
00:29:09.000Yeah, and look, just to be clear, there's a massive amount of intelligence sharing that goes in between the United States and Israel.
00:29:17.000We coordinate on a lot of kind of counterterrorism efforts and intel sharing over the decades.
00:29:24.000I mean, that's something that's always gone on.
00:29:27.000Something that I think a lot of people do forget That's kind of interesting.
00:29:31.000I do want to point out we do stockpile weapons in Israel the United States does and if I remember correctly at the beginning of this year the Biden administration actually drew down out of US Israeli stockpiles and Diverted it to Ukraine Oh, you're kidding.
00:29:51.000I think that was like beginning of the year, which I think has affected Israel's readiness.
00:29:57.000I think like it's like significantly for sure because a lot of those like especially with like just munitions just having actual like firepower to to load your weapons.
00:30:07.000I think that's what's contributed a lot to it.
00:30:09.000But I don't think he's thinking clearly at all.
00:32:11.000Because you had Yang and you had Tulsi, there was excitement around some younger personalities and then they were like Biden and then everyone's like...
00:32:18.000Did Tulsi say she's willing to work on Trump's admin?
00:33:05.000I've been listening to IRL for a few years now, and so my question is for the panel.
00:33:11.000I'm seeing that the US president, as an institution rather than the person currently holding it, is still very respected around the world, especially in the more Western-oriented Arab countries of the Middle East.
00:33:24.000Do you think Americans, especially conservatives, can still view and respect Biden as a leader when an external event happens?
00:33:53.000The left will defend him and say he's a great leader, the right will say he should be impeached.
00:33:56.000If anything happens to him in Israel, the right will say no intervention, it's Biden's own fault, and the left will say we've been attacked.
00:34:36.000And I, you know, if there was some type of attack, existential threat to the existence of the United States, I do think to one extent or another, we would be able to pull together.
00:34:48.000I'd hope we could have some type of, I mean, everyone remembers kind of post 9-11, we were all, you know, let's try to figure out what happened to us.
00:34:56.000Um, but obviously I think it would also accelerate the, uh, the election of Donald Trump.
00:35:01.000And I'm not sure if there's going to be some people on the left that would be able to deal with that.
00:35:08.000I think on the right, I think they'd have a better ability to unify around the commander in chief.
00:35:15.000Uh, I'm not sure if it's Donald Trump, they'd be able to do the same thing.
00:36:25.000I mean, I think he's very clearly the choice right now for the conference, and I think for the good of the country.
00:36:33.000Some people there need to have a little bit of like a statesman moment here and do something like outside of themselves and realize that this is the best course of action for the United States for us to elect a speaker in case something terrible happens here and we have to be able to mobilize or react to something that is an existential threat.
00:36:56.000God willing something like that does not happen.
00:36:58.000I don't think That's necessarily tomorrow, but you don't know.
00:37:05.000And we do, in times like this, have to have leadership.
00:37:10.000I know there's bad blood in that conference.
00:37:12.000I've talked to some of the members of Congress, even today I talked to them.
00:37:16.000But tomorrow at 11 o'clock, they need to elect Jim Jordan Speaker of the House.
00:37:43.000I mean, he's doing the right thing here.
00:37:45.000Why some of them want to hold out on this, and Kevin McCarthy, who in a very public way was deposed, removed as Speaker of the House, but is doing what he thinks is right by the country, he's able to get his mind around that.
00:37:59.000I think the rest of them need to do the same thing, but I agree with Tim.
00:38:02.000I'm sure they want exact some type of leverage in this.
00:38:05.000I did think Kevin McCarthy's speech when he left office was actually very good.
00:39:10.000Yeah, so they had a VC going with the stream of the speaker vote on C-SPAN, and I jumped into the VC, and I don't know what came over me, I just became, like, irate.
00:39:20.000Because I'm so tired of this party taking advantage of us, you know?
00:39:26.000That's how I felt when I left the Democrats.
00:39:28.000I was tired of them taking advantage of us and now it's the same.
00:39:31.000I will say this and I don't I assume this is true it's been reported but I don't know how helpful it is having like Sean Hannity's staff email like congressional offices like you better vote for Jim Jordan or we're gonna do it.
00:39:47.000Particularly, you have either people in Biden-plus-whatever districts or indestructible Republicans who are in conservative districts that have been there forever, right?
00:39:58.000Like a Kay Granger from Texas, who's the chairwoman of the Appropriations Committee.
00:40:03.000Mike Rogers, who's chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, who actually did end up supporting Jim Jordan.
00:40:10.000I don't know if that's helpful or not.
00:40:12.000I think what's helpful is what you are doing and mobilizing actual people.
00:40:33.000But seriously, literally, they're like, the average person doesn't care.
00:40:37.000Yeah and the way that it worked it was kind of crazy because I got irate because I watched all the Democrats at the end all clap in unison looking all happy and then we're sitting here all divided and one of the representatives is one district over from me and there was someone named Mara Macy that ran against her him who could be there right now who isn't because the establishment you know stood up against her and of course you know now we have this rhino there And it just literally infuriated me.
00:41:02.000But I'm so white-pilled, and this is such a great community, because this isn't even all Republicans.
00:41:46.000The one thing scarier to the machine, scarier than our show, they try and suppress it, is the fact that there is a membership platform where people are coordinating and organizing.
00:41:58.000That is particularly worrying to the establishment.
00:42:44.000She's just a horrible individual and a terrible leader.
00:42:47.000So with no speaker, if Biden and Kamala go to Israel together and then like a Gaza rocket hits them, Patty Murray is president of the United States.
00:42:55.000Yeah, Patty Murray who ran her campaign in part based on being bisexual.
00:43:57.000I have, so I have Sammy football is like exclusively for football on Twitter, but I have Sammy politics now and that's where I'm posting everything.
00:44:05.000And, uh, I have all of their, their usernames.
00:44:08.000Like all you have to do is just click on their username and just, you know, Twitter is our town hall.
00:44:12.000You know, they can't legally, they cannot delete anything that's posted on their social media as if it's an official social media and people don't know that.
00:44:39.000Yeah, you got your private slash political account and then you got your... I'm sure there's some rules in terms of like what you can say if it's kind of like out there.
00:44:50.000I think there should be a rule that all statements have to be signed off on by the politician.
00:45:38.000We have 5,535 people watching right now the Uncensored Show.
00:45:43.000Y'all need to go and join the Discord because you're already members and you sign up and you can be in these chat rooms and then you can actually argue with these people.
00:45:51.000You can argue with them or agree with them.
00:45:53.000And the most important thing is it's become a place where y'all can hang out and organize.
00:45:59.000So look, I'm not saying y'all need to call members of Congress and go and protest.
00:46:24.000networking is it's what I say it's not what you know it's who you know you know you might you might be sitting there being like I got this really great idea for a thing someone's gonna be in this court being like I'm looking for something to invest in I got some money and then boom all of a sudden you're selling widgets to the world and then you can donate to whoever you want to win politics or whatever you just got to start with with building those networks so right If you're listening, and now it's at 5,610.
00:47:44.000It's a slow roll, but the next thing we're working on right now is a franchise corporation.
00:47:48.000The idea being we can go to a prominent personality and say, we're going to run your brick and mortar shops.
00:47:53.000You get a profit share, but you're basically the promotion for this.
00:47:57.000And then imagine all of just downtown Martinsburg, you've got, insert personality, Papa Jack's, Pizza Shack, Cousin T's Diner, Casper Coffee, Luke Rudkowski's Health and Wellness, Vitamin Shop, all that stuff.
00:48:09.000And someone had a really good idea yesterday that we should do our own version of a ball drop, but with a rooster.
00:48:16.000And I'm like, instead of the ball dropping, the rooster crows, opens up its wings, and I'm like, that sounds... I'm so down for that.
00:48:23.000I will put a rooster on the top of my building and have it go... On the new year.
00:48:30.000I was just fantasizing about an anti-woke bookshop where you can go in and actually buy books for your kids without looking at them and scrutinizing them and wondering if there's like dildos on the pages.
