Valuetainment - “Schumer Is FINISHED” - Trump Triumphs as Senate VOTES To Reopen The Government

00:00:00.000 The Senate on Monday passed a bill, federal government, throughout January.

00:00:03.340 The bill, which passed 60-40 with support of a handful of Democratic senators,

00:00:06.580 nearly all Republicans will be sent to the House of Representatives.

00:00:09.620 If it passes the House, the bill will head to President Trump to sign.

00:00:13.220 Trump earlier Monday said that he supports the funding deal,

00:00:16.300 which was negotiated between Republicans and gang of moderate Senate Democrats.

00:00:21.220 Nearly six weeks after the shutdown, House Speaker Mike Johnson

00:00:24.200 told his Republican conference earlier Monday that he wanted GOP House members

00:00:28.760 to begin traveling to D.C.

00:00:30.280 House members were told that votes on deal could begin 4 p.m. on Wednesday.

00:00:34.600 Before the Senate vote, Johnson refused to commit to the deal,

00:00:37.740 deal's key guarantee to Democrats that Congress will hold a separate vote in December

00:00:42.060 on potentially extending enhanced Affordable Care Act subsidies.

00:00:46.480 That vote would be on a bill of the Democrats' choosing according to the Senate agreement.

00:00:51.500 I'm not committing to it or not committing to it, Speaker Johnson said.

00:00:55.000 Rob, is this an update on the video?

00:00:56.460 Yeah, this is a Reuters clip.

00:00:57.760 I also have the president, and then I have Fox News.

00:01:00.060 Which one do you want to go with, Rob?

00:01:01.400 Let's go with the president.

00:01:02.380 Go for it.

00:01:03.360 Do you personally approve of the deal that's happening right now in Capitol Hill to MDO?

00:01:07.060 Well, it depends what deal we're talking about.

00:01:08.880 But if it's a deal I heard about, that's certainly, you know,

00:01:11.440 they want to change the deal a little bit.

00:01:13.780 But I would say so.

00:01:14.780 I think based on everything I'm hearing, they haven't changed anything.

00:01:18.200 And we have support from enough Democrats.

00:01:22.040 And we're going to be opening up our country.

00:01:23.880 It's too bad it was closed, but we'll be opening up our country very quickly.

00:01:27.200 Okay, and what's the other one you got, Rob?

00:01:30.320 I have Fox News reporting on the Senate vote as well as Reuters.

00:01:34.380 Let's look at the Fox News one.

00:01:35.760 Go for it.

00:01:36.280 We thought that this is pretty much how this was going to go.

00:01:39.160 There's a reason they call those test votes and the test vote results.

00:01:42.400 Sometimes the final vote is a little bit different, but that was not the case tonight.

00:01:46.160 It was the same vote breakdown as what we had last night.

00:01:49.320 Let me just go through the list.

00:01:50.460 As you say, it was 60-40.

00:01:51.700 They did not need 60 votes, however.

00:01:53.920 They just needed a simple majority.

00:01:55.820 They needed 60 votes to break that filibuster last night. 0.98

00:01:58.820 Here are the Democratic yeas, the same coalition that voted with most of the Republicans last night.

00:02:04.260 Catherine Cortez Masto, Democrat of Nevada.

00:02:06.740 Dick Durbin, the Democratic whip.

00:02:08.660 John Fetterman, who you just had on.

00:02:10.480 Maggie Hassan, Democrat of New Hampshire.

00:02:12.260 Angus King, the independent senator from Maine, who was also voting with Fetterman and Cortez Masto on the previous votes throughout the month of...

00:02:21.060 Okay, Tom, thoughts.

00:02:22.480 So this is a show of strength by John Thune because this needed a simple majority and all those Democrats could have stepped back.

00:02:33.080 We went over the list.

00:02:33.820 He was going, I'll make it even simple for her, both in Nevada, both in New Hampshire.

00:02:37.400 Dick Durbin in Illinois, one in Virginia, Angus King in Maine, and then John Fetterman.

00:02:42.880 No surprise about Fetterman.

00:02:44.240 Those are the eight that went with it.

00:02:45.840 And so right now, two things happened this morning.

00:02:49.280 The Republicans are all happy because they've won the battle, but five times out of five, you'll lose the war for the midterm elections, and they've got to get on the stick.

00:02:59.840 There's no time for a victory lap right now.

00:03:01.700 They've got to address affordability issues and get that in front of the American people, what they're going to do.

00:03:06.140 But what's also interesting this morning is Chuck Schumer, I saw in the Wall Street Journal, I saw in the Washington Post, Chuck Schumer was taking unbelievable heat.

00:03:16.760 The people said that they personally called him.

00:03:19.020 Remember, these are representatives calling Senator.

00:03:21.540 They're calling him and just jumping down his throat, and he was saying, I've been getting calls all evening.

00:03:27.560 I was getting calls all morning, and I don't know what all the anger is about.

00:03:33.080 They knew this was coming.

00:03:34.380 Listen to that carefully.

00:03:35.960 Chuck Schumer saying to the media this morning that the other Democrats that are so upset in the House that these six senators came across, he says, we told them.

00:03:46.860 They knew this was coming.

00:03:48.080 You know what that means?

00:03:49.520 Chuck Schumer knew before the weekend that the Dems were about to blink and that the Republicans weren't going to put in the concessions, especially the Obamacare subsidies.

00:03:58.380 And so he's out there today, very interesting, talking to big media, trying to cover his butt, saying, I don't know why they're so upset.

00:04:05.820 We told them this was coming.

00:04:07.320 We gave them notice.

00:04:08.620 We understood.

00:04:09.660 So Chuck was telling people.

00:04:11.760 Now, what was he telling people?

00:04:12.840 Let's dive down.

00:04:13.620 John, I'm losing eight votes, man.

00:04:16.440 I got Nevada.

00:04:17.360 I got New Hampshire gone.

00:04:18.740 Durban went and Virginia, Maine, and, of course, Dan Fetterman.

00:04:22.100 They all went on me.

00:04:23.720 That means Schumer couldn't pull those eight in line.

00:04:27.540 The president won.

00:04:29.180 Schumer blinked.

00:04:30.420 And I take you back to when Schumer sat in the Oval Office.

00:04:33.720 This is a W for Trump over Schumer politically.

00:04:37.340 But there's a lot of work to do.

00:04:39.060 And they got to go win these midterm elections.

00:04:40.940 And they got to turn the dialogue.

00:04:42.840 And by the way, literally everybody has turned against Schumer.

00:04:47.820 I don't know if you've noticed that.

00:04:50.560 Everybody is going for Schumer's throat.

00:04:52.940 Was that headline this morning right there?

00:04:54.220 What's that?

00:04:54.740 Yes.

00:04:55.560 The view is destroying Schumer.

00:04:56.700 Is that it?

00:04:57.500 This is the headline from the Wall Street Journal Tom mentioned.

00:05:00.220 Got it.

00:05:00.460 Played after Schumer shut down.

00:05:02.340 What's the view, Rob?

00:05:03.320 What do you have on the view?

00:05:03.960 This is the view from yesterday where they.

00:05:10.140 Because he couldn't get him in line.

00:05:14.380 Wow, that's a six-minute clip.

00:05:15.940 Do they get right into it?

00:05:19.700 I'm not sure.

00:05:20.440 I just found it.

00:05:21.240 I haven't had a chance.

00:05:22.180 Yeah, but it looks like everybody is going after Schumer.

00:05:25.260 And he's having a hard time.

00:05:27.720 This is not a good season for him.

00:05:29.580 So Pelosi is stepping down.

00:05:31.480 End of the year.

00:05:32.000 It looks like Schumer probably is going to be gone as well here very soon.

00:05:35.300 The old guard needs to go.

00:05:36.440 They need to go.

00:05:37.160 I mean, if the Democrats want anything, Pat, and you see where the party's going with the

00:05:41.560 Mamdani's and the AOC's and the Bernie Sanders.

00:05:45.400 That's where their party, because they still have no message.

00:05:47.840 They have no real leaders.

00:05:49.120 That's where they're going to be their default.

00:05:50.460 Well, the Hakeem Jeffries, who doesn't do anything, but everything.

00:05:53.840 Somebody asked him a question the other day, Pat.

00:05:55.420 The first thing he says is, well, Trump.

00:05:57.280 It's like they're still caught in the Trump world.

00:06:00.500 And unless they start shifting, they're going to be stuck.

00:06:03.360 And I think he is next.

00:06:04.320 AOC has a decision to make in February.

00:06:06.420 If she announces she's running for Chuck Schumer's seat, how does she also not run for president,

00:06:12.300 but position herself for the VP slot?

00:06:14.180 Yep.

00:06:14.440 She's got to make a choice.

00:06:15.740 You see what I'm saying?

00:06:16.540 Is she going to position herself for VP?

00:06:18.700 Is she going to make a short run for president to elevate her national exposure? 1.00

00:06:23.480 Or is she going to run for Schumer's seat in the Senate? 1.00

00:06:26.000 I think the right move, Tom, is Schumer's position.

00:06:29.780 Yeah.

00:06:30.980 Actually, I agree with that.

00:06:31.880 Is it the Senate?

00:06:32.420 Yep.

00:06:32.860 I think so.

00:06:34.120 Well, I think so.

00:06:35.100 I think that's the right move.

00:06:36.520 I want you to watch this clip, and then I don't know if I'm coming to you.

00:06:38.560 Go for it, Rob.

00:06:39.120 We're quick at work right now, talking to the Democrat leadership that gets their campaigns

00:06:45.740 funded by these insurance companies, and I sure hope it works.

00:06:48.720 I think that meteorite that hit the Gulf of America a millennia ago that wiped out the

00:06:54.040 dinosaurs is Trumpcare, and it's going to wipe out the dinosaur that's Chuck Schumer.

00:06:58.940 I think Schumer's days are numbered, as everyone else does.

00:07:01.840 I think AOC will take him on in the primary and beat him like a drum.

00:07:06.280 I agree, and I think it's a right career move for her.

00:07:09.760 Go ahead, Adam.

00:07:10.480 Yeah, well, he said the word that I was going to say.

00:07:12.300 Chuck Schumer is a dinosaur who's politically homeless in the current Democratic Party, 0.99

00:07:17.120 and he's a dead man walking. 0.94

00:07:19.220 The Democratic Party is no longer the Democratic Party.

00:07:21.640 It is now the DSA, the Democratic Socialist Party of America.

00:07:26.040 Unfortunately, I would love to see a strong Democratic Party with substantive issues that

00:07:30.660 could combat maybe some of the issues the Republicans are bringing up to the table, but the Democratic

00:07:34.560 Socialists of America, highlighted by our good friend, what a guy, Mamdani, and AOC and Bernie

00:07:41.840 Sanders, it's a shell of what the Democratic Party, Bill Clinton, and even Obama used to

00:07:47.240 be.

00:07:47.640 So they're going in the wrong direction.

00:07:49.760 They're doubling down on the 20 percent, on the 80 percent issues.

00:07:54.300 Pardon me.

00:07:54.980 And I think Chuck Schumer's days are numbered, and I think AOC is a better representative of

00:08:00.100 what the current Democratic Socialist Party is in America, and we're not going to be better

00:08:05.460 served for it in America.

00:08:06.240 You know when Chuck Schumer's really bad downfall was?

00:08:08.440 When on Fourth of July, he was in front of the grill with a piece of cheese that was just

00:08:11.400 frozen on there, and that was it.

00:08:13.220 America was like... 0.59

00:08:14.100 I don't know if you can find this clip, but to me, Chuck Schumer's downfall was when Trump

00:08:18.180 incredibly just won the election, and maybe it was even before the election, he goes,

00:08:23.600 Chuck, your party's become so woke, you know, maybe you can come back as a woman and running, 0.71

00:08:29.060 whatever he said, and he's like, he's looking real smug, looking real glum, real glum, real

00:08:35.200 glum.

00:08:35.700 Chuck, he's looking glum, very glum, Chuck.

00:08:38.180 And he just ridiculed him in a nice way.

00:08:41.020 I'm like, this guy's finished.

00:08:42.000 Do you have that?

00:08:42.560 Here we go.

00:08:43.520 He had a coming in very, very strong.

00:08:45.020 Look at him, look at him.

00:08:45.660 I won't tell you what way that is, but Chuck Schumer's face.

00:08:47.980 Chuck Schumer is here looking very glum.

00:08:51.060 Very glum.

00:08:51.960 Look at him.

00:08:52.720 He's like, look at him, look at him. 0.78

00:08:55.440 He's a glum.

00:08:56.200 Tough guy.

00:08:57.540 But look on the bright side, Chuck, considering how woke your party has become, if Kamala loses,

00:09:04.080 you still have a chance to become the first woman president. 0.99

00:09:08.740 And it's so true.

00:09:10.520 Because that's basically what the Democratic Party was at that point.

00:09:14.700 He is one of a kind.

00:09:16.800 So awesome.

00:09:17.040 The stuff that he does is Chuck Schumer's face.

00:09:18.620 Look at him.

00:09:18.860 That's the photo.

00:09:19.600 Look at that.

00:09:19.900 Look at that cheese.

00:09:21.100 Let me tell you what's going on today.

00:09:22.440 We haven't done this in a while.

00:09:23.560 So this is probably going to go in 30 minutes.

00:09:26.620 We have a new hat that we've been working on for months.

00:09:29.860 And it's officially here in two colors.

00:09:32.180 Each are limited, numbered.

00:09:34.260 Out of 150, they will go like this.

00:10:07.800 Yeah.

00:10:08.080 No, it's not.

00:10:08.620 Is that really Justin?

00:10:11.620 Well, Justin kind of is a male model.

00:10:14.080 Let's give him a little credit.

00:10:15.860 Come on. 0.99
