You're in the litter box with Jules and Cat Turd.
00:02:27.700
It's another day in the Republican shit show up on the hill.
00:02:31.240
I am actually, you know what, contrary to popular belief, I am really kind of glad this process
00:02:41.400
We need to know that there's not just this automatic people get put into these positions
00:02:45.980
without serious thought and consideration like you're seeing what happened in the Senate that
00:02:56.160
No one should be guaranteed anything based on deals that they've made on the side.
00:03:01.440
It should be part of the process for us to watch all this stuff happen.
00:03:13.420
He thought he was just going to stomp around up there and everybody was going to vote for
00:03:17.100
Like I said yesterday, this is why he's not a leader.
00:03:24.220
You go say, OK, the Freedom Caucus is going to be holdouts and go in there and say, look,
00:03:31.540
And they'll tell him and he can probably give them 70 percent of it.
00:03:43.580
And the fact that he is now on round number five.
00:03:52.720
And he's I mean, conservatives are not budging.
00:03:56.660
They've got some new names that they are starting to pull forward that we're hearing.
00:04:00.420
Marjorie Taylor Greene's getting wiped out over it.
00:04:08.140
I think a lot of people are never done anything wrong, man.
00:04:12.360
Well, I mean, when it comes to push and shove, here you go.
00:04:16.440
I know that she's hungry to get into some of those on some of those committees.
00:04:21.040
They did have her hands tied for quite some time.
00:04:29.920
Kevin McCarthy, who she's supporting right now.
00:04:41.240
Hey, I, you know, this doesn't mean I don't like Marjorie Taylor Greene.
00:04:45.100
I don't have to agree with everybody on every single thing.
00:04:49.200
But man, she is pushing this and pushing it and belligerently pushing it on her Twitter page.
00:05:11.620
He's treated her like absolute dog shit since she's been up there.
00:05:16.660
And then as I say, they're better people than me.
00:05:20.900
And I'm like, dang, now I go against Trump and Marjorie Taylor Greene because, you know,
00:05:29.980
And I'm telling you, that dude's no different than Paul Ryan, Nancy Pelosi, John Boehner.
00:05:42.940
And let's not forget, Kevin is the same guy that was telling Republican leadership that
00:05:48.840
Liz Cheney is the one that broke that story for us, the voicemail and everything else.
00:05:56.220
The swamp is even turning on the swamp because there's so much on all these people.
00:06:02.420
We need a clear and decisive person that we all can agree on, that we can stand behind.
00:06:09.520
And not everybody's going to be happy, but it's not going to be a swamp monster.
00:06:13.200
And if he does get in and there's no other way, get everything you want to get out of him.
00:06:21.760
I mean, you know, one of the things they want to do is release all the January 6th videotapes to the public and then do another January 6th committee, but with conservatives this time.
00:06:42.920
Why would you not give him that unless you were in on it?
00:06:50.100
He knows that him and Mitch McConnell went along with it.
00:06:53.100
So that's why he can't give him that because he's in on it.
00:06:55.720
And Marjorie Taylor Greene simping for him so hard.
00:07:00.780
If you just want to do it and kind of be quiet about it, I get it.
00:07:03.900
But, man, I mean, she's just like, she's jumping the shark, man.
00:07:09.780
And like you said, if she were to just speak about the facts, here are the things that he's promising to do for us.
00:07:15.240
This is why I support him and keep it really low and easy and explain yourself.
00:07:23.340
I mean, this clown has betrayed us all the way around the board.
00:07:27.200
They're all about fooling people with fake theater and lies.
00:07:32.560
Like, they'll go, okay, we're going to, we're going to, they'll say, we'll do this.
00:07:41.120
But we're going to find out where that virus came from.
00:07:45.760
We want people to go to jail over lockdowns, over the lies of the mask, over the poisonous vaccine.
00:07:52.160
And so he'll say, okay, well, we, we did Fauci because we did this.
00:07:55.580
Remember when they did the Benghazi and Trey Gowdy was ahead of it?
00:08:06.200
They throw you a bone and pretend to be conservative.
00:08:08.940
And then he's, they're up there having lunch with Nancy Pelosi laughing at us all.
00:08:16.140
Well, they think that they're just going to walk right into it, but we haven't forgotten.
00:08:21.060
This, he is a favorite of McConnell and the swamp and everybody else for a reason.
00:08:29.920
But not only that, they don't want people to know exactly what happened, the real story,
00:08:38.720
Because they've done a fine job on social media, just slamming these people and keeping
00:08:43.480
them against all of their God-given rights, constitutional rights and everything else,
00:08:48.320
locked up in a jail cell for over two years now.
00:08:51.760
They weren't treated properly at all during this whole entire thing.
00:08:56.420
The handling of it was something that we will look back in history and go, what was that?
00:09:01.100
And the one person that was good about it was Marjorie Taylor Greene.
00:09:05.680
But now she's going to vote for a guy that has not even mentioned it?
00:09:13.340
Because as a result of what happened with January six, think about what kind of things
00:09:21.980
People are afraid to get out there and protest.
00:09:26.800
But they're afraid because they paraded these people out like they were domestic terrorists,
00:09:36.380
Between that and being shut down on social media, you don't have a communications department
00:09:46.780
We do it here on the show every day from the beginning.
00:09:56.080
They knew where they could cheat to win Pennsylvania and everything with Trump.
00:09:59.620
And he was winning by way more than they thought.
00:10:02.260
So they shut down the five states, all simultaneously, which never happened before, stopped counting.
00:10:08.560
And then they started to see how many votes they needed and they dumped the ballots.
00:10:15.660
The vaccine's full of, you know, the vaccine sucks.
00:10:22.400
Now you're more likely to get COVID and die from COVID if you have the vaccine.
00:10:29.080
The most liberal rag in America even admits it.
00:10:39.300
They even tried a word trick to make it like, it's just barely aging over 50%.
00:10:53.900
I am so proud of those that are out there fighting.
00:10:57.780
Those 20 that are really taking this seriously and standing their ground because it needed to be done.
00:11:04.060
You don't just have a coronation just because you are the expected or intended leader that the Uniparty decided on on both sides.
00:11:14.720
Term limits is another thing they don't want to discuss.
00:11:16.860
Yes, and Bobert has said over and over again, hey, look, these are the things that we want on the table.
00:11:39.740
I didn't really know a whole bunch about him before the last couple of years.
00:11:45.980
He is speaking out and he's speaking beautifully.
00:11:56.300
He's talking about the rules and what needs to change in the house in order to make it work.
00:12:04.180
The fundamentals, they need to be there whenever you're taking care of business.
00:12:08.660
And somewhere along the line, these rhinos and these dinos and this uniparty got together and said,
00:12:15.440
Oh, no, we all just decide who it is, that magic person.
00:12:19.140
And we just send them right through the process.
00:12:21.500
And then they'll do something for us over here and something for you.
00:12:25.300
And then it looks like we're doing our job in front of the American people.
00:12:42.680
I really could care less how disappointed you are.
00:12:46.640
Yeah, they floated the name Mike Pence on Fox today.
00:12:52.500
I watched Fox News for the first time in a long time.
00:12:54.840
They all say the exact same thing because I just wanted to watch the count and C-SPAN is boring.
00:13:06.400
And this process is going to play out because you know what your job is?
00:13:10.620
Everybody's job here today is to tag your representatives and tell them whose side that you're on.
00:13:19.420
So get on social media, make yourself loud and be heard and seen and retweet others and let everybody know that this is how you feel.
00:13:30.400
And this is where you start putting pressure on the other people to make sure that we get a candidate and that we can all agree on.
00:13:40.860
I mean, even Marjorie Taylor Greene, she's getting ratioed like I've never seen in my life.
00:13:47.820
I don't know why she's going as far as she is, but there's got to be some reason for it.
00:13:53.980
And it's not a reason that you and I like thinking about.
00:14:00.900
See, I don't just throw somebody away when I disagree with them.
00:14:04.980
If I agree with somebody 90% of my time, they're my ally.
00:14:14.380
And here's another example of him going after a guy that can't stand him.
00:14:21.980
I'm going to play the clip of what Kevin McCarthy does, just because I think it's important for people to remember who this clown actually is.
00:14:36.420
Nobody can defend that and nobody should defend it.
00:14:39.940
The only discussion I would have with him is that I think this will pass.
00:14:45.300
And it would be my recommendation we should resign.
00:14:49.980
That would be my take, but I don't think he would take it.
00:14:56.700
But let me be very clear to all of you, and I've been very clear to the president.
00:15:01.660
He bears responsibilities for his words and actions.
00:15:06.420
I asked him personally today, does he hold responsibility for what happened?
00:15:13.960
He told me he does have some responsibility for what happened.
00:15:38.160
I mean, he hammers McConnell all day long, and I love it when he does it too.
00:15:47.880
Just run as a third party so you can say what the hell you want.
00:15:58.280
I'm not, you think I'm going to support Trump, Marjorie Taylor Greene, you know, anybody could,
00:16:05.580
I mean, Abraham Lincoln could come back from the dead and appear to me in a dream and say,
00:16:18.340
You're never going to make me support that guy.
00:16:20.920
No more than I can support McConnell or support Nancy Pelosi.
00:16:28.440
All the reasons you come up with don't make any sense.
00:16:37.460
And the problem is, is that President Trump, unfortunately, has a history of hiring a lot
00:16:48.100
Look at what happened with Attorney General Barr.
00:16:50.320
Look at what happened with Omarosa and some of the others.
00:16:53.660
I mean, he has not surrounded himself with the best of people.
00:16:56.780
They've ultimately tried to do him in in one way or another.
00:17:00.620
And so for this conversation to be held at this time, and not to mention all what we had
00:17:06.400
to go through as a result of these swamp creatures, it makes you say, okay, President
00:17:11.620
Trump, maybe you just need to sit this one out because it's just not a good, it's not
00:17:19.520
But he comes out and he says, some really good conversations took place last night and
00:17:24.960
it's now time for all of our great Republican House members.
00:17:50.960
And everything he's saying, he's lying right now, he'll do anything.
00:17:55.460
But he's not smart enough to go in there and why wouldn't he want to release the January
00:18:06.340
If it's so damning for the Trump supporters that went in the Capitol, why won't you show
00:18:12.100
If it was damning to them, trust me, people, they would already released it.
00:18:16.680
It's damning to the police, damning to the FBI, damning to the CIA, damning to Pelosi and
00:18:27.940
You don't think they'd release that if it's damaging to Trump?
00:18:31.960
They'd be playing on C-SPAN 24-7 for six years straight.
00:18:38.480
But not to mention that, the FBI's involvement in all of that.
00:18:42.620
Are the Republicans, is this what they're telling us, that they're just going to shove all
00:18:45.520
this stuff underneath the carpet and none of this will ever be investigated?
00:18:50.940
You're never going to call people into hearings and recommend punishment for them.
00:18:59.300
You don't elect these people just for cover-ups.
00:19:04.420
We elect them for transparency and to fix things and to get this country on the right track.
00:19:10.280
And what we've learned from COVID, what we've learned from Twitter files, what we've learned
00:19:18.660
And it needs to be investigated or this is just going to get worse.
00:19:35.060
He's going to bite around the edges and play a bunch of kabuki theater like I talk about.
00:19:40.040
And he's going to be on the stage and he's going to say the right things.
00:19:43.300
And he's going to bite where it can't hurt anybody and not really investigate it.
00:19:50.120
And he's going to investigate things you don't care about.
00:19:52.840
Like he'll, they said one of our top, you know, is to investigate the Afghanistan withdrawal.
00:20:13.300
He left $82 billion worth of, you know, equipment there and weapons.
00:20:19.220
He bombed a family of nine and killed them and pretended like we already know all this.
00:20:23.720
There was already a plan in place that President Trump had been working on to have us out of there.
00:20:28.720
And it's not, it's not, it's not an American people's top 10 things that they want to investigate.
00:20:44.480
And trying to, the FBI is trying to overturn our, are actually overturning our elections.
00:20:51.520
And you want me to talk about Afghanistan, go up there?
00:20:55.180
They're going to, he's, that Kevin McCarthy's going to go up there and talk about everything that sounds good, that nobody really wants and never get to the meat of the stuff we need.
00:21:08.440
I mean, and Marjorie Tendergreen, I hate to harp on her today, but I'm going to.
00:21:12.860
She's like, we got to get to the, we got to get to the people's business.
00:21:15.960
Every time, any, any time there's any, a house, a Senate, the presidency, anything that can shut down the government, I'm happy as hell.
00:21:26.680
I hope the Senate and the, I wish we could shut down the Senate and the House and the presidency for two years.
00:21:35.380
I mean, and start by not signing a $1.7 trillion omnibus that we can't even fund.
00:21:44.000
I would have loved for them to be still, you know, missing out on keeping the government open.
00:21:48.720
What is the government actually doing right now, other than having its FBI armed to the teeth against people of this country, American citizens?
00:21:59.240
This is the thing about these Twitter files that are so interesting as well.
00:22:03.160
It's that all of this stuff is being brought to life.
00:22:10.140
You even have people in office with some of these latest revelations who were targeting members of the press.
00:22:20.560
Oh, that's the, that's the QAnon movement and this and that and the other.
00:22:26.960
The whole thing has just been an absolute disaster.
00:22:30.620
And honestly, Kevin McCarthy, for every reason mentioned, is not the guy to handle this.
00:22:41.520
I think this is one of the funniest things I have ever seen.
00:22:48.660
I mean, what he did here with the whole, Matt Gaetz, he asked the architect of the Capitol to explain why House Speaker's office is already occupied.
00:23:02.820
He wants to know why he moved his things in when he hasn't been there.
00:23:17.520
For Kevin to be that, you know, for him to honestly believe that he already had it is obnoxious in and of itself.
00:23:31.060
Man, you Republicans up there, you have done nothing to deserve any of our votes.
00:23:37.280
And you're so stupid and ill-prepared that you want to be a leader.
00:23:42.180
And your plan was not to talk to anybody for too much and go up there.
00:23:48.040
Everybody's going to come by and lick your butt.
00:23:55.960
I see McConnell and Joe Biden had their little butt licking festival.
00:24:05.160
McConnell, this is what happens when, you know, two people can work together and this is how the government's supposed to work.
00:24:09.980
Send a pair bragging about all them trillions they're spending.
00:24:18.580
He hates that Kentucky's turned on him and all the America First people hate his guts.
00:24:22.920
And he's going to do everything he can to destroy everything you like.
00:24:31.380
Well, everyone is starting to figure out who these people are.
00:24:36.760
And they're starting to understand that they're all in an alliance together.
00:24:47.440
Think about why the recession got so bad two years ago.
00:24:57.940
Huge smile on the faces of Biden and McConnell as their event in Kentucky concludes.
00:25:30.720
I mean, these people are, they're not for the American people.
00:25:35.360
They're all doing a clap in a different rhythm.
00:25:40.800
It just really starts to just grate on your last nerve after a little while.
00:25:46.020
And it just plays out in front of us the exact same way without anything happening on our side.
00:25:51.500
I mean, this was actually really a good example of how it works in D.C.
00:26:04.360
Here are the returns calculated using closest buy and sale dates or unrealized returns if never sold.
00:26:15.600
I mean, now that we've brought her up, here you've got a stock market that has been down negative 18.2% in 2022 for us, you know, citizens, right?
00:26:27.600
But all of these other investors and people in office are able to beat all of this.
00:26:33.880
In between getting DUIs with person number one and totaling two cars and you couldn't even take your hand off the car without falling down drunk in between that and getting a hammer, playing hide the hammer with his lover.
00:26:49.360
He, you know, between doing all that, he's the best stockbroker in world history.
00:27:03.200
It tells you, this chart tells you absolutely everything that you need to know about all of them.
00:27:07.800
If they're in this for themselves, they're not in for it, for the American people or to save this country.
00:27:15.660
They've been there for so long that this is just the way they do it.
00:27:24.760
If it was the way he said, if it was a Magna guy that really beat him with a hammer,
00:27:27.760
if that was the real story and they could prove it and they had film about it and everything,
00:27:40.960
I mean, remember, they didn't even do a victory lap for her.
00:27:45.340
That's the way the world's biggest murder and terrorist away from some girl, dude,
00:27:50.680
pretending to be a girl so she can play an NBA that hates America.
00:28:04.720
And the American people are really getting fed up with it.
00:28:09.520
Because in order to have change, you've got to have this.
00:28:14.160
Chip Roy was saying, it's great to see the floor completely full of people for a change
00:28:22.180
They get up there and give speeches to nobody sometimes, one person.
00:28:27.500
Remember when I said they're the laziest people I've ever seen in my life?
00:28:31.920
They're wanting to make a deal with McCarthy where you have to show up.
00:28:39.900
He's trying to, Chip Roy and the 20, they're trying to make it
00:28:42.720
to where they're actually representing and they're actually arguing things.
00:28:47.460
Not everything's 4,000-page bill written by nobody even knows who.
00:28:52.100
Some lawyer way back in the corner nobody's ever heard of.
00:28:55.000
And they come over and they slap 4,000 pages down.
00:29:08.980
And he perfectly explains why we need new leadership.
00:29:14.200
But it just resonated with me and I think a lot of other people
