In this episode, we talk about the Senate kicking illegal immigrants off Medicaid, Elon Musk's Tesla wishlist, and why third parties will never work in real life. We also discuss why we don't want third parties and why we're not interested in them.
00:00:41.000Like it does two different occasions, like that part.
00:00:43.000And I thought there was one other thing that the parliamentarian, by the way, I don't even know why the parliamentarian is able to do that.
00:00:54.000And it's just, that's why when people are like, oh, third party, it's like, okay, and you think they're going to navigate this?
00:00:59.000Like, you think, oh, yeah, our problems will be solved because the third party is going to walk in there and be like, hey, no more parliamentary for you.
00:03:52.000It seems to me like there must be some Republicans who really, really want illegal aliens on Medicaid, which we were told has never happened.
00:06:37.000They don't like Puerto Ricans because they think that Puerto Ricans bring a lot of crime and they don't like being associated with the crime.
00:08:51.000But certainly different than someone from Syria, right, where they're trying to escape or flee a communist government.
00:08:57.000So it actually would be much closer to meeting that criteria because they're not coming here just for some better economic outlooks.
00:09:05.000They're coming here because they can't live in that country because of their, in some cases, religion too, by the way.
00:09:10.000It was a deeply atheistic regime, and certainly their political viewpoints.
00:09:15.000So I think it's interesting to look at those people and say, okay, why is it different?
00:09:19.000And I think what we can control, we can't obviously just accept people from communist nations, but what we can control is trying to emulate that patriotism and that gratitude.
00:09:31.000And that means people need to come here and meet those same kinds of conditions.
00:09:34.000Because when Cubans came here, they didn't have the ability to go back.
00:09:38.000When you have people who come here from South America, they often go back.
00:09:41.000So, hey, you come here, you don't go back.
00:09:46.000Hey, you come here, you don't send money back.
00:09:49.000You don't really have that problem with Cuban Americans.
00:10:45.000And with my experience with Asian cultures, they are pretty pro-American when they get here.
00:10:49.000So that's just my experience on the West Coast.
00:10:52.000A lot of Cambodians, Koreans, and Japanese people, and they all seem to be pretty on board with the Anglo.
00:10:57.000The Vietnamese were when they came here, initially, especially because, again, they saw communism and they saw Jane Fonda going out there saying, oh, the communists aren't that bad.
00:11:04.000And they couldn't believe that Americans were saying, ah, it's fine.
00:11:08.000But it didn't seem to stay that way because, again, the horrors aren't as clear in Vietnam today.
00:11:13.000I mean, half the time you look at clothes, it's made in Vietnam, right?
00:12:19.000I think it was there for maybe four or five days.
00:12:22.000And the people that I've talked to that were there trying to get out or the people that have come here, very, very pro-America, which is really interesting.
00:12:29.000It's that same kind of combination of the regime that they had was everything that communism tried to be socialism and they got out of it.
00:12:37.000They're second generation, most of the people that I was talking to.
00:12:40.000And they were just like, yeah, my parents fled this country when I was three.
00:12:45.000They jumped on a boat to try to get me the hell out of here.
00:12:47.000And again, would see Democrats largely absolving the regimes that they were since because you can oppose the war, but also I think that's the biggest point that you're talking about.
00:12:56.000Like it's the same stuff, just with kind of different skin to try To make it more appealing and make it look nicer until push comes to shove.
00:13:04.000And Donnie in New York, he's got a video out today that's making the rounds on social media about buying up all of the property, as much of the property as they can, forming a consortium for the government to buy up single-family, multifamily homes, and then leasing those back to the public.
00:15:46.000For those of you who don't know, hate symbol or not, Applejack, you're going to show us a symbol, and then we have to guess whether it's a hate symbol or not, as determined by, is it the ADL?
00:30:40.000Why is it that Elon talks about the waste of the big beautiful bill, which I don't like all of, but never addresses the drivers of our debt, I'm assuming, means tested welfare and government handouts?
00:30:53.000What do you mean he's not addressing the drivers of our debt?
00:31:04.000He's more so just stayed on fraud, waste, and abuse.
00:31:08.000And I understand that because if you're going to do it in sort of a tiered process, you start with that because, God forbid, you cut any type of handout whatsoever.
00:33:07.000And believe me, anyone, any Republican who played a role in cutting from this bill, you know, giving the boot to 1.4, I believe, illegal aliens on Medicaid.
00:35:44.000I mean, if there is, you know, like a young Cuban who's a young Cuban-American who's sort of lost their way and maybe getting involved with the wrong crowd, there is a Cuban-American mom beating the shit out of a child with a sandal somewhere.
00:36:39.000They're so entitled, they've never actually been challenged ideologically by anything, a real struggle, that they actually think they could make it work here.
00:38:38.000I was hoping to see if there was a follow-up from Callie Patriot, because I'm very curious to see if I bet that your father probably spent a lot of time informing you as to the perils of communism, because they tend to.
00:38:51.000There is another question from him, which is kind of funny if we want to go to that.
00:39:42.000We do have some Republicans who absolutely are awful.
00:39:46.000You know, the Collins of the world, the Cantors of the world, the Mitch McConnells of the world, the Michael Steele's of the world, Lindsey Grahams of the world.
00:40:07.000To say that Donald Trump, Pete Hegseth, J.D. Vance, Tom Holman, to say that they're in the same pot as Lindsey Graham or Mitch McConnell or Collins, I think is intellectually disingenuous.
00:40:24.000We definitely do need to get rid of, for the same reason, get rid of the limp-wristed Republicans because people, we've seen the biggest demographic shift that we've ever seen in our lifetime with Gen Z. They need to see what their vote got them.
00:40:37.000So we need to get rid of the Republicans who are actually acting as hurdles, as blockades to that.
00:40:43.000And we also need to make sure that the mandate Trump was given is implemented, again, for the same reason, because this young generation of people who veered hard right for the first time in possibly ever American history, but certainly modern American history, they need to see what their vote has gotten them.
00:41:04.000To me, it's really what is best for the United States of America in 2025?
00:41:10.000What is best for us right now and what's going to help us move forward with the best chance at success?
00:41:16.000I think it's pretty clear that Collins is not thinking that way.
00:41:19.000I think it's pretty clear that any Republicans who think that illegals should be on any type of social program or there should be no work requirements, I think it's pretty clear that they're not in our camp.
00:41:32.000And then I think there's probably a spectrum for other people.
00:41:35.000But people need to know what it is they voted for.
00:41:37.000People need to see the fruits of their labor and of their vote.
00:41:42.000And so, yeah, the perfect is the enemy of the good, but we need to get some things done.
00:41:46.000And I think cutting spending and entitlements by 1.3 to 1.7 trillion, probably significantly less now with the illegal aliens being allowed to stay on Medicaid, I think it's a good start.
00:41:57.000And in tandem with everything else that we've seen as far as inflation, as far as the border, as far as employment numbers, these are good.
00:42:05.000It's your job to make sure that people know this is not more of the same.
00:42:10.000And then single out the Collins of the world.
00:42:12.000Single out the Grahams of the world and say those guys aren't with us.
00:42:15.000But if you just say, if you tell people, hey, the Democrats have really screwed the pooch, and we already know that many people for the first time are agreeing with you post-COVID and Gen Z. They're going, okay, all right, it's not working.
00:42:27.000But then when you try and direct them to a solution, you go, and by the way, all of it's the same man, they're going to go, well, what are you offering?
00:43:23.000If someone is just bitching without anything even resembling a solution, they've proven themselves to not be someone who can offer you wise counsel.
00:43:35.000Seems that Elon Musk is one of those people.
