00:00:27.580The chair of the Democratic National Committee reportedly smashed a phone in rage as they had to put up their own headquarters as collateral to secure a loan because they need money desperately.
00:00:45.200The news is the DNC has a few million dollars to their name, but they have way more debt.
00:00:53.140Meanwhile, the Republicans have 100 to 200 million dollars cash on hand.
00:00:58.280When you zoom out to the bigger picture, looking at the Democrat machine versus the Republican machine, things are a little different.
00:01:06.120There's different Democrat, Senate and congressional campaign committees, same as the Republicans, as well as PACs.
00:04:24.200But let's start here with what is happening to the Democrat machine.
00:04:27.980And we'll take a look at the polling to see exactly where we are at.

00:05:00.600You know, they were kind of just bored. They didn't know their neighbors. They had no one to talk to.

00:05:25.140Let's get to the news from the New York Post.
00:05:27.720Raging DNC boss Ken Martin threw phone at aid's desk as committee forced to put up HQ as loan.
00:05:39.740The DNC committee chairman furiously threw his phone at the desk of an aide in a fit of rage earlier this month
00:05:45.080as he deals with mounting pressure over the DNC's financial woes.
00:05:49.280Martin's angry outburst prompted a complaint from the junior staffer to Human Resources,
00:05:53.980which met with the DNC boss to discuss his conduct.
00:05:57.020The unsettling outburst came ahead of the high-stakes midterm elections as the remarkably cash-strapped DNC is relying on a $15 million loan,
00:06:07.000its largest ever off-year borrowing, that saw the committee put up its D.C. headquarters and other assets as collateral.
00:06:14.840If they are broke, if they have no money, how are they going to pay this loan back?
00:06:52.960The loan documents were publicly released in November.
00:06:55.000The DNC's building was also used as collateral.
00:06:57.020In our prior lines of credit, 19, 18, 14, and many other years, a DNC official told the Post,
00:07:03.180the committee declined to comment on Martin's alleged outburst. Indeed, that may be the case,
00:07:07.940but was it the case when you were millions of dollars in debt and no one was donating?
00:07:14.020The DNC had 16.3 million cash on hand at the end of last month,
00:07:18.000well below the 18.5 million in debts and loans it has on the books, according to the FEC.
00:07:23.040By contrast, the Republican National Committee ended June with one hundred twenty eight point five million dollars cash on hand and no debt.
00:07:31.620A similar trend is playing out among other officials, campaign arms of the two parties, which could be a key factor in the midterms, given the Supreme Court recently struck down rules limiting coordinated spending between the parties and campaigns.
00:07:43.540Martin addressed the party's bleak financial situation in a recent sub stack piece as he deals with jittery Democrats.
00:07:50.000The current DNC has raised the most money of any DNC without the White House in the 198-year history of the Democratic Party.
00:08:01.340The DNC raised from grassroots donors and major gift donors $154.8 million through June 2026, compared with $95.2 million over the comparable 18-month period.
00:08:13.900And with the DNC's financial woes, Democrats have requested that vendors refrain from billing them until after the midterm cycle concludes.
00:08:20.000which means it's actually worse than we realize.
00:08:23.040With all their debts, that means they're telling people,
00:09:14.420If you want to understand the definition of irony, just imagine a fire truck on fire,
00:09:18.540The point of which being the fire truck intending its creation is the intention of putting fires out itself on fire is ironic.
00:09:26.940The DNC chair complaining to his staff that these that things are being leaked and that statement being leaked should be in the dictionary next to the word irony.
00:09:39.920Privately, Martin has reportedly joked about how long you will last as DNC boss, given the controversies.
00:16:39.680So we have seen endlessly, my friends, the Democrats are historically low in the polls, despite the fact they're supposed to be the opposition.
00:16:46.940They're supposed to win. That's probably why call she has the prediction for Democrats to win.
00:16:52.260But take a look at this. The 270 to win consensus shows Republicans only need to win eight seats
00:16:58.660out of 17 toss ups. Democrats got to win 10 seats. I just got to tell you, my friends,
00:17:05.220I don't see how with all the polling data we got, anyone thinks it's a it's it's close to being a
00:17:12.160sweet by Democrats. At the bare minimum, you want to argue that it's a toss up. That's fine.
00:17:17.500And now Donald Trump is coming out swinging. Trump torches GOP Senate leadership as he warns
00:17:23.480stupidity always brings losing and death. Trump is finally going after Thune. You see,1.00
00:17:32.220this is all about the Save Act, the Save America Act, which would require voter ID
00:17:37.060and it would put limitations on these universal ballot harvesting programs these people do.
00:17:42.160because you need an ID. Republicans could secure victory right now. John Thune need only eliminate
00:17:49.440the filibuster, and we're good. But he won't do it. And my question is, why would Trump claim he
00:17:55.500wants the Save America Act passed, but then do nothing about Thune? I mean, the dude campaigned
00:18:00.400against Massey and got him removed from Congress. What about this guy? Well, Thune isn't up for
00:18:05.400reelection, I think, until 2028. Let me triple check that and make sure. I believe he's up in
00:18:13.1802028. Right. Oh, wait, actually, not even. Not even 20. Holy crap. He just won, I think. He's
00:18:19.780not up for reelection in. No, no, no, no. OK, yeah, yeah. He's up for reelection 2028. So Trump
00:18:26.260doesn't really have a strong play against him in that capacity, but he certainly can still make
00:18:31.040these moves. Now, here's what he said recently. To terminate the filibuster, everybody called
00:18:36.640John Thune at the Senate. He's the leader of the Republican Party and tell him to get this stuff
00:18:42.580approved. Terminate the filibuster and approve everything because the Democrats are going to do
00:18:52.820it. The Democrats are going to terminate the filibuster as soon as they have a chance. And
00:18:59.660then they're going to approve puerto rico and dc as a state they got four more senators they're
00:19:04.620going to get end up with 12 more congressmen they're going to get at like 40 electoral votes
00:19:09.880if they are allowed to do that by that time i'll be sitting home and i'm not a big crier i don't
00:19:18.260think you want to see me cry you know there are some people they do very well when they cry
00:19:23.520but you don't want to see me cry but i may be crying when i i'll be sitting home and i'll say
00:19:29.260I told them they got to really terminate the filibuster, get everything approved right away
00:19:34.500because you're going to have a stoppage. You're going to have a stoppage in September. The
00:19:39.380Democrats won't approve everything. They become deranged like deranged Jack Smith. Remember that0.77
00:19:44.400deranged Jack Smith. Trump says he's going to cry. John Thune should not allow the U.S. to leave
00:19:52.060town, senators, to leave town until it passes. Well, I'll tell you this. The argument we keep
00:19:58.060hearing is like, oh, if we get rid of the filibuster, Democrats will do it too. They're
00:20:02.200going to do it. The whole point here is the party is desperate. You've got a rogue faction emerging
00:20:08.400far leftists. They will steamroll whatever they can. The establishment can't seem to muster up
00:20:14.500any real support or money. So what happens when you back the wild animal into a corner?
00:20:21.460the truth is depends on the animal do you guys know this you know why badgers are so vicious
00:20:28.220because they're burrowing animals they live in a in a in a tube in the ground basically and they
00:20:34.720got nowhere to go so if they are timid they get eaten birds birds don't often attack you why they
00:20:42.960can fly away given the opportunity to leave they do the democrats are backed into a corner and they
00:20:49.720are going to do whatever it takes. I don't blame them. This is it. They are struggling to maintain
00:20:58.660power. So if they win, yes, they will pack the courts, not until Trump is out, but 2028.
00:21:04.700But they will pass in the immediate. You want to win 2028, make sure Republicans never win.
00:21:10.540Puerto Rico, D.C., boom, their states. Instantly, they're going to add a couple of members of
00:21:15.800Congress in each jurisdiction. They're going to add a couple senators in each jurisdiction,0.83
00:21:19.480and they're going to boost their votes in Congress in the Senate. It's done. They get these senators
00:21:25.120with these extra states. There it is. Republicans ain't winning nothing. So this is the game plan.
00:21:32.620Donald Trump's got a game plan of his own. Dylan Mulvaney responds to Trump attacking her
00:21:37.340and Caitlin Collins in White House Correspondent's speech. Exactly what Trump wanted to happen.
