- 0:56the week ahead just as much as I am. Hope,
- 0:58by extension, you guys are looking forward to the month
- 1:00ahead just as much as I am. We've made it
- 1:03to the holiday stretch of the year twenty twenty five.
- 1:07Next thing you know, it'll be Thanksgiving. Then we'll be
- 1:10flipping those calendars over to December and people will be
- 1:13getting ready for Christmas, and after that we'll be in
- 1:17twenty twenty six. But in the meantime between times, I
- 1:21have a lot that I want to discuss with you guys.
- 1:23So strap in tell a friend to tell a friend
- 1:26that a new episode of the Igarius Williams Show has
- 1:28been uploaded into your podcast fee because we are about
- 1:32to go into some very uncharted territory on this show today.
- 1:37This is my first time talking to you guys since
- 1:40believe it or not, September twentieth. A lot has happened
- 1:44since September twentieth. Charlie Kirk has been buried. Now the
- 1:50government I should have started with this one first. Honestly,
- 1:54the government is shut down. We're thirty two days into
- 1:57a government shut down. The President of the United States
- 2:01is tearing apart the White House, literally replacing the East
- 2:05wing with a ballroom. We'll talk about that. The same
- 2:09President of the United States is also preparing for a
- 2:12war with Venezuela as well as a military confrontation with
- 2:18Nigeria due to their treatment of Christians. The war between
- 2:21Russia and Ukraine is still going strong. Israel and Hamas
- 2:25agreed to a ceasefire that we all know won't stand
- 2:28for too much longer because eventually somebody will accuse the
- 2:32other of breaking the ceasefire, and then the war will
- 2:34start all over again, and it will be Donald Trump
- 2:37walking around with egg on his face, basically saying, I
- 2:40help broker this deal, and this is how you guys
- 2:42thank me.
- 2:44Speaker 2: What else am I missing?
- 2:45Speaker 1: A lot's happened once again since September twentyth But before
- 2:50we talk about any of those other things, I want
- 2:53to talk to you guys first and foremost about the
- 2:57government shut down.
- 2:58Speaker 2: As I mentioned, we are thirty two.
- 3:01Speaker 1: Days into the federal government's decision not to properly fund
- 3:07itself to pay his bills, and of course, like any
- 3:12other shutdown that's taking place in this country, both sides
- 3:16are blaming the other. You have Democrats blaming Republicans on
- 3:21the basis of they don't care about Americans. They don't
- 3:26care about providing snap recipients with their money so that
- 3:29way they can feed their families. They don't care about
- 3:34potentially jacking up your healthcare premiums because they are still
- 3:40under the belief or the delusion that illegal immigrants that
- 3:44came into this country are receiving health care funding via
- 3:50the Affordable Care Act. On the other hand, you have
- 3:54Republicans who are blaming Democrats because they are purposely alone
- 4:00wowing illegals to come into this country and get health insurance. So,
- 4:04as you guys know, for those of you who've listened
- 4:07to this podcast since we first started it, I am
- 4:11not a fan of either political party because they.
- 4:15Speaker 2: Both consist of the same elements.
- 4:18Speaker 1: They both consist of the same people trying to coach
- 4:22you and I into believing that there is some difference
- 4:26between the two. As far as I see it, and
- 4:29it's very nice to see so many other people waking
- 4:32up to this as well, there is no difference between
- 4:34the Democrat Party and the Republican Party.
- 4:38Speaker 2: They both do not have our interest at heart.
- 4:42Speaker 1: The only interest that they have in heart are the
- 4:45interest of the donors that put them into their positions
- 4:48of power.
- 4:49Speaker 2: So that's why I find that very.
- 4:51Speaker 1: Disingenuous when you see these politicians go on these news
- 4:54shows talking about how they're trying their best to protect
- 4:58the American people, how they don't want to see family
- 5:01starve because they can't get their snap benefits, how they
- 5:04don't want to see millions upon millions of people rates
- 5:09increase when it comes to their insurance premiums, how they
- 5:13don't want X, Y, and Z. It all is very
- 5:17disingenuous when you're able to peel yourself back and understand
- 5:21that none of these people care about any of those
- 5:26things that they go on TV and claim keep them
- 5:28up at night. So, of course, like any reasonable president
- 5:34of the United States, Donald Trump has come out and say,
- 5:38you know what, the only thing we need is a
- 5:41clean cr and Republicans in the House and the Senate
- 5:45to stay together stampat to reopen the government. Then of
- 5:51course you have the Vice president of this country, JD.
- 5:54Vance come out and say, the only thing we need
- 5:57a couple reasonable demos to break party line. Come over
- 6:03here with us so that way we can reopen the
- 6:06government and all their other concerns we can address them
- 6:09at a later date. Here's the problem with that notion,
- 6:14mister Vice President. Why in the hell would any Democrats
- 6:20want to join rank with the Republicans After all the nasty,
- 6:25vile things that y'all have said about them. They're radical left,
- 6:30they're insane. They led to the destruction of our country
- 6:34for the four years that Joe Biden was president, so
- 6:36on and so forth, So why should they now want
- 6:39to partner with the party that's talked all this crap
- 6:43about them to help reopen the government. I'm about to
- 6:46get to my broader point here in a minute, because
- 6:48I'm just laying the ground for what I really want
- 6:51to say about the shutdown. This thing is gonna go
- 6:56on a lot longer than it already has. I strong
- 7:00and believe that once again, it is day thirty two,
- 7:03and I realistically could see this thing going on for
- 7:06another thirty two days because neither one of these sides
- 7:10want to admit that they're the reason why the government
- 7:13shut down. You don't really need a vote to take
- 7:17place on the floor of the House or the Senate
- 7:19to get this thing reopen. What you need is for
- 7:22these politicians to finally sit back and say, you know what,
- 7:26let me put my ego to the side, so that
- 7:28way I truly can show the American people that I'm
- 7:30dead serious about addressing their concerns. It should not be
- 7:36on a yearly basis, this drag out fight to fund
- 7:40the government. But yet it seems like every time we
- 7:43turn around that's exactly what's happened. All this squabbling to
- 7:49fund the government for what. Because you have a Democrat
- 7:54colleague who sees things differently than you do, because you
- 7:57have a Republican colleague who sees things differently than you do,
- 8:01which once again reiterates the point that these politicians don't
- 8:05go to Washington, d C. To look out for you
- 8:08and I's best interest. They go to DC to look
- 8:11out for their own best entrants. They don't care about
- 8:16the forty plus million Americans who are going to literally
- 8:20starve without their snap benefits. They don't care about all
- 8:24the people who are gonna see their insurance premiums rise.
- 8:27They don't care about any of that crap because it
- 8:31doesn't affect them the way that it affects the normal,
- 8:34everyday American. Because as long as this shutdown's been going on,
- 8:38they're still getting paid, they still get their protection as
- 8:42far as security is concerned. And of course it seems
- 8:46very plausible to them that they could go back to
- 8:49their respective districts and say I'm holding the line. If
- 8:54a Republican goes back to their district, they can easily
- 8:56say I'm standing with President Trump. You guys vote for him,
- 9:00and as a result, you guys voted for me to
- 9:03stand pat with him to make sure that his agenda
- 9:08is being worked through. Now a Democrat could go back
- 9:10to their district and say I'm standing firm against Trump
- 9:13and his authoritative regime within the walls of Congress, which
- 9:19brings me to my main point. I don't know if
- 9:24you guys have noticed this, but it seems like now
- 9:28that we're thirty two days into this, this is becoming
- 9:32more and more apparent. This shutdown is continuing because it
- 9:40gives both parties an opportunity to score political points.
- 9:44Speaker 2: What do I mean when I say.
- 9:45Speaker 1: That for the Democrats they can use this shutdown as
- 9:51their main bargaining hip to return to power following the
- 9:56twenty twenty six mid terms. The Republicans sees it as
- 10:00an opportunity to say, you know what, this further proves
- 10:04our point that Democrats don't care about hard work in Americas.
- 10:10This whole shutdown is nothing but a prop used by
- 10:14people in positions of power for fundraising. I've taken the
- 10:23liberty of doing something so you guys don't have to.
- 10:29I subscribe to the Democrat Party email list as well
- 10:36as the Republican Party email list, and you would be
- 10:41amazed as to how many emails and text messages I
- 10:46get a.
- 10:46Speaker 2: Day wanting me to donate to help.
- 10:55Speaker 1: Either party advance their messaging about this shutdown, and I
- 11:01think to myself, really, people are literally out here starving,
- 11:06People are literally out here praying that they don't get
- 11:09sick so they don't have to go to the doctor.
- 11:12And yet you guys are asking people, Hey, just chip
- 11:14in any amount so that way we can show Chuck
- 11:17Schumer and the dims that what they're doing won't break
- 11:21the backbone of the American people. Donate this amount so
- 11:25we can show John Thune and Mike Johnson and Donald
- 11:29Trump that what they're doing is unconstitutional and it's a
- 11:33threat to democracy.
- 11:37Speaker 2: Really.
- 11:39Speaker 1: When you think about the cost of living as it
- 11:41continues to increase, when you think about people who are
- 11:45now in the process of being laid off from their jobs,
- 11:48when you think about energy prices continuing to soar, when
- 11:51you think about grocery prices continuing to continuing to soar,
- 11:55when you're thinking about how your utilities tuition, whatever, how
- 12:01all these things are continuing to soar. The last thing
- 12:05you want to see is a politician or a party
- 12:09messaging you about, hey, can you just chip in any
- 12:12amount so that way, we can show those in control
- 12:16that we're not gonna buckle to their demands. And I'm like, really,
- 12:22most Americans are literally living paycheck to paycheck, and you
- 12:26want me to donate to you for whatever reason.
- 12:28Speaker 2: It's not like you care about me.
- 12:32Speaker 1: And that's what makes me so sick when I think
- 12:36about the Democrats. They're using the forty plus million people
- 12:41in this country that receives snap benefits as political pawns.
- 12:47They don't care about whether you guys eat or not.
- 12:50They want you guys on their side because they see
- 12:54you guys as an opportunity to reclaim the power that
- 12:58they once had.
- 13:02Speaker 2: I don't think I'm wrong in that assessment.
- 13:05Speaker 1: They do not care about the forty plus million Americans
- 13:09who are quite literally gonna starve if they don't come
- 13:13up with some other financial need to pay for their groceries.
- 13:19You guys are just the perfect political pawns in this
- 13:23chess game that they can use to get back in power.
- 13:32This government could have easily been funded by now, but
- 13:37in this new political age that we live in, everything
- 13:40has to be a twelve round knockout, drag out fight.
- 13:46Nothing can just be done anymore to benefit everybody. It
- 13:52always has to go through some bs, back channeling, political maneuvering.
- 14:02Speaker 2: Yet we can't fund the government.
- 14:04Speaker 1: But yet we have forty billion dollars to send the Argentina,
- 14:09three hundred and fifty million dollars to help the president
- 14:13build his ballroom at the White House. We have all
- 14:18this money to power these weapons and these boats that
- 14:25we use to shoot up alleged drug boats in the Caribbean.
- 14:33We have all this money to help Ukraine continue their
- 14:36war against Russia. We have all this money to help
- 14:39Israel continue their war against Tomas. But yet we have
- 14:45people in this country who don't even know where their
- 14:48next meal is coming from. Now, let me paraphrase my
- 14:53commentary with this. When it comes to SNAP recipients, the
- 15:02people that I truly feel sorry for are those who
- 15:07are seniors that get snapped, those who are not in
- 15:11a position to work that receives SNAP. Those are the
- 15:17ones that really pains me that they can't get their benefits.
- 15:24But if you are an able body American and you
- 15:27can work, then why are you complaining that you can't
- 15:33get your SNAP benefits. This is what happens when you
- 15:38become dependent on the government. When the government shuts down,
- 15:43and you have a president like Trump who doesn't want
- 15:45to tap into the reserves that have been set aside
- 15:48to pay out the benefits, then you have no other
- 15:53choice at the end of the day but to get
- 15:56out there and do what everybody else does. Get a
- 15:59job and pay for your groceries with the money that
- 16:02you make via working that job. Like we've all seen
- 16:08the TikTok videos by now of people who look able
- 16:12to work complaining about how the government is not gonna
- 16:16give them their SNAP benefits and all these drastic things
- 16:19that they're gonna have to do to feed their family. No,
- 16:22you don't have to do all the drastic stuff. But
- 16:24what you can do is get out here, put you
- 16:27in some job applications, call the job or wait for
- 16:30the job to call you, and then go to work
- 16:33so that way you can make an honest day's living
- 16:37and pay for you and your family's groceries. And yes,
- 16:42I'm pissed off about that because I'm a taxpayer and
- 16:46it's my tax pair of dollars that goes to fun
- 16:49programs like Snap and people who are on it that
- 16:57shouldn't be on it. If we're telling the truth and
- 17:04you're around here mad at everybody else because the government
- 17:09decided to not pay you out what you feel that
- 17:13you're due every month. I mean, you've had people say
- 17:19some of the most preposterous things about their food stamps. Well,
- 17:24I'm just gonna have to go in the store and
- 17:26start stealing, or I may steal somebody else's groceries when
- 17:29they're loading them up in their cars, And I'm like, really,
- 17:32this is how low we've sunken as a society to
- 17:37where you feel the only way to take care of
- 17:39your family when it comes to their nutrition is by
- 17:44stealing it from somebody else who works hard to provide
- 17:48for their family, just because you don't want to go
- 17:51out there and do the same things that they do
- 17:53to make sure that their family is fed at the
- 17:55end of the day. Hey, don't get me wrong, When
- 18:03I go to the store and that stuff is ringing
- 18:06up kind of makes you squirm a bit, But you
- 18:10also know that if you want to eat, you gotta
- 18:12pay for it right.
- 18:17Speaker 2: Right.
- 18:17Speaker 1: In the days and times that we live in, where
- 18:20the cost of living has soared mightily, you know it
- 18:23would be nice to go into a store and not
- 18:26have to worry about you know, swiping a cart in
- 18:30that money coming directly out of your pott. I think,
- 18:40and I know a lot of you are gonna agree
- 18:42with this here. I think it would be nice as
- 18:45a taxpayer if a specific amount of money is set
- 18:51aside from our.
- 18:52Speaker 2: Paychecks for food or system.
- 18:57Speaker 1: Where if we can tap into our reserves that we
- 19:00pay into if we ever find ourselves hitting the band,
- 19:06then you will really start to see the workforce improved,
- 19:13because people would then say, all right, if hard work
- 19:19of Americans tax dollars are no longer going to those
- 19:21who just sit on their butt and wait for their
- 19:23snap every month, then that means I need to go
- 19:26out here and give me a job so that way
- 19:28I can make sure that me and my family eat.
- 19:36Speaker 2: But in the.
- 19:37Speaker 1: Broad scheme of things, I don't have the same reaction
- 19:45to the shutdown that a lot of other people do
- 19:49because I think this is something that could have been
- 19:51greatly avoided if these politicians left their ego at the
- 19:56door and not brought them into the halls of Congress.
- 20:03But that's easier, said the number you think about these people,
- 20:05because they don't suffer the way you and I do.
- 20:11They don't go home and wonder how they're gonna put
- 20:13food on the table. They don't wonder how they're gonna
- 20:17pay their utility bills, they don't wonder how they're gonna
- 20:19pay their mortgage, how they're gonna send their kids to college,
- 20:24because they have all that taken care of. Even though
- 20:27for the most part, you have some that will get
- 20:29on TV and try to act like they empathize with you.
- 20:33Marghia Taylor Green is a perfect example of this. She
- 20:37gets on TV or she goes on a podcast and
- 20:40she talks about how her adult children, her young adult children,
- 20:44i should say, are having a hard time finding their
- 20:49footing in life because things are so high. And I'm
- 20:52thinking to myself, well, you know, aren't you pretty financially
- 20:56well off. You're trying to tell me that you can't
- 20:59help your true get a leg up. It wouldn't hurt
- 21:03you that much financially to help your children get that
- 21:06leg up. But of course, in order to make the
- 21:09sticking point stick, she has to almost use her children
- 21:15as pawns in this game to try to empathize with
- 21:18you as having you believe that even her as a congresswoman,
- 21:24she sees the impact of higher prices because her children
- 21:29cannot get that start in life that she got when
- 21:32she left college. So you see the game that's being
- 21:35played here. And the thing that is and this is
- 21:39the last point I'll make before I move on. And
- 21:43the thing that's so decrepit about all of this is
- 21:48yet you still have these diehard people on both sides
- 21:52of the aisle who will listen to this and say
- 21:55you're not telling the truth. You're not being completely honest
- 21:59in your assessment of the situation. The Democrats do care
- 22:02about Americans, they do care about snap recipients, They do
- 22:06care about people and their health insurance premiums and all that.
- 22:09And I would just calmly ask that person, do you
- 22:16believe everything that just came out of your mouth. I
- 22:19get it, you've been voting Democrat ever since you were
- 22:22old enough to vote. But it's time to realize that
- 22:26these politicians are all the same. It doesn't matter which
- 22:29party they belong to. They're all in this big Ponzi
- 22:33scheme together. And the more and more you call out
- 22:36the Ponzi scheme, the more and more uncomfortable that they get,
- 22:40because what they realize is that once they're no longer
- 22:42able to have a group of people that they can control.
- 22:46They start to lose their grip on power, and that's
- 22:49what frightens them the most. If they lose their grip
- 22:52on power. Republicans the same way. You have so many
- 23:01people in the Republican Party that believes everything that Donald
- 23:04Trump says, believe everything that Mike Johnson tells me, believes
- 23:08everything that John Thunees tells him, and yet they're not
- 23:15suffering the same way you are. I said this a
- 23:21couple episodes ago. We have to get to a point
- 23:25where we all should just look at this and say,
- 23:29you know what, We're all being screwed by the same people,
- 23:36regardless of party, which is why you will never see
- 23:42me attack somebody because they're Republican. You'll never see me
- 23:49attack somebody just because they're Democrats. What I'm saying is
- 24:00we shouldn't be attacking each other because our enemy is
- 24:02the same people. And they've done a damn good job
- 24:07of convincing you that that's not the case. Democrats, your
- 24:12enemy is the Republicans. Republicans your your enemies, the Democrats.
- 24:16That's how they keep this machine going. So that way,
- 24:20it coakes you into believing that The only way you
- 24:24can get a leg up in this life is if
- 24:28your particular party of choice is the one pulling the
- 24:31levers of power. And it's absolutely discussing. So if I
- 24:38had to make a wager about how much longer this
- 24:42shutdown will go on, I think this thing is gonna
- 24:48drag out.
- 24:51Speaker 2: Past Thanksgiving. And I got a calendar right here in
- 24:54front of me.
- 24:55Speaker 1: Thanksgiving is on November twenty seven. I honestly could see
- 25:01the shutdown going on beyond Thanksgiving because both parties are
- 25:06dug into their positions and they see this as an
- 25:11opportunity to gain some ground before the midturn. So you know,
- 25:14for damn sure that they're gonna want to keep this
- 25:18thing going on for as long as they can, while
- 25:23millions of Americans struggle to eat, while millions of Americans
- 25:29struggle to figure out how they're going to pay rising
- 25:34insurance premiums, and while we as a whole continue to
- 25:42be the laughing stock for other countries around the world.
- 25:48It's very, very, very unpalatable, all right, So I want
- 25:56to shift gears and talk about what's going to happen
- 25:58on Tuesday. So for those of you that are not
- 26:03in the weeds politically, Like I am, you're wondering to yourself, Okay,
- 26:08what's so big about Tuesday? Not a mid term year,
- 26:12not a presidential election year. Nonetheless, there are still big
- 26:18races that are going to be decided on Tuesday, most
- 26:24importantly the gubernatorial elections in New Jersey as well as Virginia,
- 26:32the mayorial elections in Atlanta and New York City. You
- 26:36also have some house races that are up for grabs,
- 26:39and of course you have some state, some other state
- 26:42and local elections as well. All in all, what Tuesday
- 26:49is gonna show us is how the American people in
- 26:54those areas feel about the current trajectory of the country,
- 27:02with the White House being occupied by a Republican, with
- 27:06the House and Senate both being occupied in the majority
- 27:12by Republicans, and by the Supreme Court also being in
- 27:16a strong conservative majority. Hands I'll say this, not only
- 27:26will Tuesday give us a glimpse into how the American
- 27:29people are feeling about President Trump's second term so far,
- 27:33it will also give us a preview of what we
- 27:36possibly can expect in twenty twenty six once the midterms
- 27:41get here. I want to talk about Virginia before I
- 27:46talk about any other race. So in Virginia, you have
- 27:52Glen Younkin, who's the current governor that's term limited. He
- 27:55can't run for a second consecutive term. So in his
- 27:58place on the Republican side, you have Lieutenant governor win
- 28:02some Earl Sears running for the office. On the Democrat side,
- 28:10you have a member of Congress, Abigail's spawn Berger running
- 28:17for governor. In all likelihood, what we're gonna see play
- 28:26out Tuesday and Virginia, this is just a prediction. What
- 28:30we're gonna see play out is Abigail's Sparnburner winning that election.
- 28:36I don't I don't think it's gonna be a blowout.
- 28:38I think it's gonna be relatively close. But what you're
- 28:42gonna see are people in Virginia say, you know what,
- 28:47we like Glenn Youngkin. Notice I said like, and I
- 28:52didn't say love. We like Glenn Youngkin, but we don't
- 28:57think that Earl Sears will be the same type of
- 29:01governor that Yonkin has been. Now me personally, I don't
- 29:08live in Virginia, so I don't have a dog in
- 29:09the fight. But I will tell you what's gonna happen.
- 29:13If once some Earl Series loses that elect the same
- 29:18thing that's gonna happen to her is the same thing
- 29:22that happened to herschel Walker a couple of years ago
- 29:27when he couldn't defeat Raphael Warnock in Georgia. He will
- 29:32be ostracized, or she will be ostracized by the Republican Party,
- 29:37never to be heard from again. When's the last time
- 29:40you heard something out of the mouth of herschel Walker?
- 29:44Been a while, right? If she loses on Tuesday, she
- 29:50won't be heard from again because she would bring no
- 29:55added value to the Republican Party.
- 30:00Speaker 2: They'll look at her and til her shut up. You
- 30:02had your chance.
- 30:05Speaker 1: We thought you would be able to keep that governor's
- 30:07seat in Republican's hands, and you failed us. Now, one
- 30:12of the things that's not helped her calls is not
- 30:18receiving an endorsement from President Trump. And we all know
- 30:24how far a endorsement from President Trump can take certain candidates.
- 30:30This is the same President Trump that back here recently
- 30:36called Earl Sears a phony, saying that he never he
- 30:39knew something was off about her.
- 30:40Speaker 2: In so many words, she said something and it got
- 30:44Donald Trump's attention, and he was like.
- 30:45Speaker 1: Nope, she's not my cup of tea. He even went
- 30:52as far as a couple of days ago to post
- 30:54on True Social vote Republicans. You know, he's thrown his
- 30:59complete support behind Jack Ciicerella in New Jersey, but he
- 31:04is not lended in it. His support to Earl Sears
- 31:07in Virginia. He basically say, hey, it's like the argument.
- 31:14It's like the thing that you hear black people say. Now,
- 31:17all skin folks ain't ken folk, all Republican or not
- 31:23Magnott and Donald Trump realizes that on certain issues Winston
- 31:27Earl Sears is not magnet.
- 31:31Speaker 2: And so he's basically saying, look.
- 31:33Speaker 1: I don't like who you guys chose to be the
- 31:37nominee because I think she's a phony, think she's fraudulent,
- 31:42but damn it, she's a Republican.
- 31:43Speaker 2: So let's just vote for and hope the best happens.
- 31:46Speaker 1: That's pretty much his attitude when he looks at this
- 31:48Virginia race. But you know what's gonna happen, right if
- 31:53she loses, we're gonna see Donald Trump post on True
- 31:56Social why he chose not to endorse it because he
- 31:59knew she was a loser. Because he has no love
- 32:02for her anyway, So she loses, that loss will not
- 32:05be on him, even though you're gonna have some people
- 32:08that are gonna say that had he gotten out there
- 32:11and campaigned for that, she probably could have gotten over
- 32:13to finish line. New Jersey Democrat Mikey Cheryl is going
- 32:22up against Jack Ciicerella. Hopefully I'm saying that right if
- 32:29I'm not charged to my head, not my heart, please,
- 32:33this race has gotten very close here in the final
- 32:38few days of the cycle. For one reason, and one
- 32:43reason only. Mikey Cheryl is a very flawed cannon. But hell,
- 32:51when you look around the political landscape, who isn't.
- 32:55Speaker 2: A flawed cannon.
- 32:58Speaker 1: And as a result, as more and more of her
- 33:02skeletons start to fall out the closet, you're having more
- 33:07and more people saying to themselves, uh uh, can't do it.
- 33:13Cannot lend my support to her when I hear all
- 33:16the things that she's been a part of, especially dating
- 33:20back to her time in the academy when she was
- 33:27involved in a cheating scandal, so that way she couldn't
- 33:30or she was involved in a cheating scanleon and as
- 33:32a result, she couldn't walk with her graduating class, and
- 33:37so you have people looking at that saying, see right there,
- 33:39that's already a reason to distrust her. Now, I do
- 33:43believe that she's gonna win on Tuesday, and I do
- 33:45believe it's going to be a razor thin election in
- 33:49New Jersey, and New Jersey will stay in Democratic hands.
- 33:58Speaker 2: The New York City mayor's race.
- 34:03Speaker 1: Listen, barring something unforeseen happening, Zora Mumdani's gonna be the
- 34:09next mayor of New York. I don't agree with him
- 34:13on damn near anything, but New Yorkers are looking at
- 34:18the other two options and they're saying, no, we can't
- 34:22do that. And the thing that I'm having the hardest
- 34:27time accepting are people who want Zora Mumdani destroyed so
- 34:35bad to whether they're telling people, hey, I know that
- 34:40Cuomo did some things while he was governor that you
- 34:44may not.
- 34:44Speaker 2: Have liked, but can you just please.
- 34:47Speaker 1: Swallow your pride and put him in there so we
- 34:49can stop Mumdani. You even have Republicans who are saying
- 34:55that they've ditched Curtis Sliwa in favor of Andrew Cuomo.
- 35:02I mean, Eric Adams has endorsed him. Michael Bloomberg has
- 35:06endorsed him, and Michael Bloomberg we know has money and
- 35:10he's willing to throw it. However much money is gonna
- 35:13take to get Cuomo into the mayor's office. But I
- 35:17don't think any of that's gonna work, because if you
- 35:20have not been paying attention to that election, Zora Mumdani
- 35:24has a broad band of support throughout all five boroughs
- 35:28of New York City. I mean, this is the same
- 35:31I'm Donnie who's gotten some traction in Staten Island.
- 35:36Speaker 2: Let that sink in Bronx Queens. He has traction.
- 35:46Speaker 1: And honestly, why would I feel comfortable voting for Andrew
- 35:53Cuomo after he's let all those people go back to
- 35:57that nursing home, to those nursing homes during COVID and die.
- 36:01Why should I feel comfortable with Andrew Cuomo being the
- 36:05mayor after all the sexual harassment charges that he's been
- 36:10accused of. I mean, you know something's off if his
- 36:15own lieutenant governor when he was governor at the time,
- 36:18who's now the current governor, Kathy Holker, didn't endorse him.
- 36:24I mean, Hai King, Jeffries and Chuck Schumer. They're late
- 36:27to the party. They finally endorsed Mam Donnie because they
- 36:32started to fill the heat because they see the traction
- 36:36that he's been able to pick up AOC and Bernie
- 36:40they were right there from the very beginning.
- 36:42Speaker 2: Oh he's a Democratic Socialist. Yep, our kind of guy.
- 36:49Speaker 1: And by the way, here's another prediction you can write now,
- 36:53AOC is gonna challenge Chuck Schumer in the next Senate election.
- 36:59I can already see that happen. AOC she is. We
- 37:04may not like her policies, true enough, but you cannot
- 37:07deny that she is a firecracker in the Democratic Party.
- 37:13Speaker 2: When she goes out.
- 37:14Speaker 1: And she speaks, she's able to get people to come
- 37:17and listen to her. Now, how good will she be
- 37:21as a senator if she were to beat Chucky I
- 37:24don't know. But she is able to get a large
- 37:27swath of people to buy what she's selling. She's almost
- 37:33like somebody that sells Girl Scott cookies and you're on
- 37:35a diet, but they do such a good job selling
- 37:37them to you where you say, oh, damn, I neve
- 37:39have to break this diet. I want these Girl Scout cookies.
- 37:44That's how she is. She's a good saleswoman, the same
- 37:48way that eight Obama was a good salesman.
- 37:53Speaker 2: I was able to get you to support.
- 37:55Speaker 1: Him because he spoke eloquently, because he was black, all
- 38:02the different things that encompassed what got Barack Obama elected
- 38:06over John mccainaan O eight. All in all, there is
- 38:14going to be one person who is going to be
- 38:16meticulously watching these results Tuesday night, and that's the President
- 38:23of the United States, because he's already said in so
- 38:27many words that if Mam Donnie wins that mayor's race
- 38:29in New York City, they may not have a good
- 38:32working relationship, that he may even freeze funding to New
- 38:36York City just for the simple fact that, in.
- 38:39Speaker 2: His words, Mam Donnie is a communist.
- 38:44Speaker 1: But you know what, I've been doing a lot of
- 38:47thinking about this since the last time we did an episode,
- 38:50and I want to share this with you guys, because
- 38:52maybe you will understand where I'm coming from when I
- 38:55say this. You have a lot of people, whether it
- 39:01be Democrat, Republican whomever, that have a big problem with
- 39:05the rise of Zoron Mumdani, really questioning what he would
- 39:11do for New York city if he were elected mayor.
- 39:15The thing is, instead of lobbing all these attacks at Mamdani,
- 39:20trying to figure out why people support him the way
- 39:23he do the way that they do. Pardon me, why
- 39:26not try to understand what's caused people to distrust the
- 39:32Andrew Cuomo's of the world, why people haven't gravitated towards
- 39:36the Curtis Sleevas of the world. Instead of just lobbing
- 39:39assaults at Mamdani, try to figure out why people who
- 39:43support him support him, Like, what is it about this
- 39:47assemblyman that has people so enthusiastic about putting him in
- 39:51the mayor's office? Because if he were to come out
- 39:58successful or a better world would have been if he
- 40:01were to come out triumphant. On Tuesday, we're gonna see
- 40:06more democratic socialists spring up throughout the country. And that's
- 40:11what really has the people in control scare. I mean,
- 40:16you guys have been around here trying to sell capitalism
- 40:20to people and people still haven't gotten to his So
- 40:22they're saying, okay, so what do we have to lose?
- 40:26Going with socialists? Democratic socialism as labor by Zora Mumdani,
- 40:32Bernie Sanders and AOC we have absolutely nothing to lose
- 40:39because we've already been force fed this bs about capitalism
- 40:44and how it's gonna help everybody get to the top
- 40:48of the mountain, and that's been the furthest thing from
- 40:50the truth.
- 40:59Speaker 2: So trying to figure out why he.
- 41:01Speaker 1: Has the supporters that he has, instead of belittling him
- 41:07just because you don't like it, figure out what's allowed
- 41:12his rise to happen.
- 41:14Speaker 2: Instead of demonizing the rise.
- 41:18Speaker 1: And then and only then do I think you can
- 41:21finally start putting the pieces together about how you can
- 41:25stop this from spreading if you claim that it's such
- 41:29a widespread problem. But Tuesday will be that litmus test
- 41:40that we need to see where we're heading next year,
- 41:46as well as twenty twenty eight. Speaking of twenty twenty eight,
- 41:54there's been talked about what's going to happen in twenty
- 41:59twenty eight when it comes to the Democratic private There
- 42:06has been reports indicating that former Vice President Kamala Harris
- 42:14wants to try to run for president for a third time.
- 42:21Speaker 2: God oh mighty.
- 42:22Speaker 1: Anyway, here's the thing about former Vice President Harris. If
- 42:30we're telling the truth, when you ran in twenty twenty
- 42:38that wasn't successful. Ran in twenty twenty four that wasn't
- 42:41successful life, Why should the Democrat Party give you another
- 42:51opportunity to be the standard bearer of the party.
- 42:57Speaker 2: Honest question.
- 43:01Speaker 1: If you've stolen from me once, why should I trust
- 43:06you to not steal from me twice? And by extension,
- 43:11why should I trust you not to steal from me
- 43:14a third time? Think about all the donors who gave
- 43:21her the money for her one hundred and seven day
- 43:24campaign last year, the one plus billion dollars that was
- 43:29infused into her war chest to help her get to
- 43:32the White House. Blew through all of that, and even
- 43:36had that when it was all said and done, And
- 43:40yet she wants us to believe that if given another
- 43:44chance to run a proper campaign, she can get over
- 43:46the finish line this time. If Democrats are really honest
- 43:55with themselves, they realize that they need what they had
- 44:01in two thousand and eight with Barack Obama. You need
- 44:04somebody that can eloquently bridge the divide between the old
- 44:09guard of the Democrat Party and the new guard of
- 44:13the Democrat Party that's spearheaded by the likes of Bernie
- 44:16aoc Zoramnani. Because if a Democrat really wants to reclaim
- 44:24the White House, They're gonna have to be very realistic
- 44:26with themselves that they're gonna need to be able to
- 44:28bridge that gap between the socialist wing of that party
- 44:33and the more moderate wing of that party. Because I
- 44:39think we can all see now the Democrat socialist is
- 44:45not gonna win nationals because it's just not gonna be popular.
- 44:48Which is why I think if Bernie had gotten the
- 44:51nomination in sixteen or twenty, I don't think he would
- 44:54have beaten Donald Trump.
- 44:56Speaker 2: That's just the truth of the matter.
- 45:00Speaker 1: Because you're not gonna be able to go into a
- 45:02state like Florida or Texas, or Kentucky or South Carolina
- 45:12selling democratic socialism. They're not gonna happen. Hell, even in
- 45:18my state of Mississippi, it's not gonna fly. It's not
- 45:23it's not part for the courts. But I think what
- 45:28we're gonna see in twenty twenty eight, or in the
- 45:32lead up to twenty twenty eight, I should say we're
- 45:36gonna see a anybody but Kamela movement spring up within
- 45:41the Democrat Party because you're gonna have a lot of
- 45:44people that are gonna say, we would rather lose another
- 45:48election with somebody else than to lose two elections in
- 45:52the in a row with the same candidate.
- 45:57Speaker 2: Now you're gonna see a lot of donors that are
- 45:58gonna say, uh.
- 46:00Speaker 1: Uh no, I would rather sit on my donations than
- 46:07to give more money to Kamla Harris after what she
- 46:11did with that one plus billion dollars in twenty twenty four,
- 46:16And just ask yourself something. I think I posed this
- 46:19question to you guys before. Who can run through a
- 46:24billion dollars in one hundred and seven days like that
- 46:29is a lot of money. Just the word billion itself
- 46:35screams more than I need, more than I'll ever be
- 46:39able to spend it. You have people who couldn't even
- 46:42spend a billion dollars in a lifetime, and yet she
- 46:47was able to do it in one hundred and seven days.
- 46:52Plus her campaign ended in the red and not the black.
- 47:00So she needs to be real with herself and say,
- 47:02you know what, I had my chance at it.
- 47:05Speaker 2: I whiffed.
- 47:08Speaker 1: Mightily, I should add, So let me go ahead and
- 47:12just step out the way and be of as much
- 47:16help as I possibly can be to whomever the candidate
- 47:20is in twenty twenty eight. So that way we can
- 47:22reclaim the White House for the first time since twenty twenty.
- 47:26That would be the best thing she could do. She
- 47:31doesn't need to be selfish and try to do this again,
- 47:34because God knows, in a full drag out primary fight,
- 47:39she won't be able to get the softballs that she
- 47:42got in twenty twenty four.
- 47:44Speaker 2: Her record will.
- 47:45Speaker 1: Be attacked by those same people that she thought were
- 47:48her friends a year ago, the Pritzkers of the world,
- 47:52the Newsums, the Whitmers. This goes on and on, because
- 47:57I think we're going to see about twenty to twenty
- 47:59five people throw their hat into the ring on the
- 48:03Democratic side in twenty twenty eight. Speaking of the presidentcy
- 48:14since we're there, the current occupant.
- 48:21Speaker 2: Of the office of President of the United.
- 48:23Speaker 1: States is doing something that honestly should piss all of
- 48:30us off, especially when you think about the economic straits
- 48:36that we're in right now.
- 48:39Speaker 2: So the President.
- 48:42Speaker 1: Is just ripping apart the White House literally to install
- 48:47a ballroom where the East Wing used to be. That's
- 48:51going to cost, at the time of this recording, three
- 48:54hundred and fifty million dollars. Now to all the Trump
- 49:04supporters out there, let's just go ahead and have this
- 49:06conversation because we need to. How many of you that
- 49:14are Trump supporters, that are regular, everyday average joes that
- 49:20get up, go to work, pay your taxes, raise your family,
- 49:26actively involved in your community.
- 49:31Speaker 2: How many of y'all seriously think.
- 49:38Speaker 1: That when this ballroom is finished, will be invited to
- 49:47go into it for an event? And I ask that
- 49:53question because those are the people who are yelling the
- 49:57loudest about how great is gonna be, how good is
- 50:02gonna look based upon the renderings that the White House
- 50:06has made puplic, Donald Trump has my full support for
- 50:12this ballroom. I think it's gonna look great. Guess what,
- 50:16You're never gonna step foot into it, even though your
- 50:21tax pair of dollars are going into it to fund it.
- 50:26I don't really care what Donald Trump says. He claims
- 50:30that tax pair of dollars are not being used for this,
- 50:33that he and a couple of his donor friends they're
- 50:36paying for it. I call bs on it. I do
- 50:39think some of our tax payer dollars are going into it,
- 50:44and I stand pad in that opinion.
- 50:48Speaker 2: So this ballroom that you hear damn near.
- 50:53Speaker 1: Everybody in magn world allude to, will not be something
- 51:00that the average Trump supporter will be able to step
- 51:03foot into. Now, if you are a MAGA influencer like
- 51:07Ben Shapiro and Bennett Johnson, well, I don't know if
- 51:13Cannice owns her and Donald Trump don't seem to be
- 51:15on good terms anymore.
- 51:16Speaker 2: I was about to say.
- 51:16Speaker 1: Her the HADJH Twins officer Tatum, who else? Any MAGA
- 51:30conservative influencers out there, now, they'll be able to go
- 51:32in there. But if you are a regular nine to
- 51:35five Trump supporter, you know, damn ware you're not going
- 51:38in there, because when you realize that, hey, this ballroom
- 51:44isn't gonna be used for elegant parties and for a
- 51:48high class dinner with my high rolling friends, you'll think
- 51:51twice about why you supported it from the get go.
- 51:57It's almost like how most country clubs are members only
- 52:01country clubs. That ballroom will be members only, and knowing
- 52:07him as money hungry as he is, he'll probably charge
- 52:13your membership fee just to get into that damn ballroom.
- 52:20Because if there's one thing we know about people with money,
- 52:23they love to cont everybody else out of more money.
- 52:28Speaker 2: It's just the game that they play.
- 52:35Speaker 1: We'll see Larry Ellison in there, see Sam Autman, Elon Musk,
- 52:42Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates. All the ones who put money
- 52:49behind Trump to get him into the wous we'll see
- 52:51them in there. But regular nine to five Trump supporters
- 52:56will not step foot in that ballroom because at this
- 53:02point he doesn't care about y'all anymore, because y'all helped
- 53:08him get what he wanted a second term, which is
- 53:12why he does not care when you guys complain about
- 53:17how he's no longer America first. Every time I hear
- 53:21Candice Owens complain about Donald Trump not being America first anymore,
- 53:25I don't feel bad for every time that I don't hear,
- 53:29or every time I hear Tucker Carlson talk about how
- 53:32Donald Trump has abandoned America first, I don't feel sorry
- 53:34for him. Marjorie Taylor Green don't feel sorry for because
- 53:38you guys were so blind in your support to him
- 53:45to where he could have told y'all it was raining outside,
- 53:48and you would have went on and went in your
- 53:50room and put it, put on rain gear, and when
- 53:52you walked out the front door and you saw it
- 53:54with Sonny, you wouldn't have gotten mad at him. For
- 53:56lying to you would have got mad at the weather
- 53:59for not being what Trump said that it would be.
- 54:08And think about this, when's the last time you heard
- 54:11Donald Trump mention anything about Charlie Kirk? And speaking of
- 54:20Charlie Kirk, since we're there, I wanted to say this
- 54:25after it happened. But once again, as you guys know,
- 54:28this is the first episode we've done since September twentieth.
- 54:32Speaker 2: That memorial.
- 54:35Speaker 1: At State Farm Stadium out in Glendale for Charlie Kirk.
- 54:40Speaker 2: Was an embarrassment for a couple of different reasons.
- 54:44Speaker 1: I should say, why were there voting booths set up
- 54:53at a memorial and why did those same boosts say
- 54:59that this is what Charles would have won it? Why
- 55:02were there so many pyrotechnics being used at a memorial service?
- 55:08Why did his memorial service feel like a glorified Trump route?
- 55:14And and by the way, since we're there too, if
- 55:16you think about it, Charlie Kirk's memorial service at State
- 55:21Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona almost felt like Donald Trump's
- 55:25Madison Square Garden routy. Remember the one where damn there
- 55:29everybody in their grandmother got up on stage and talked
- 55:32about the joys that they would feel and the country
- 55:36would feel if Donald Trump got reelected and the knight
- 55:41culminated in Donald Trump getting up there making a speech.
- 55:45And that same thing happened at Charlie Kirks memorial. It
- 55:49wasn't his wife or his widow that finished this memorial,
- 55:55It wasn't his parents, it wasn't his siblings. It was
- 56:00Ronald Trump himself that finished off the memorial service. Why
- 56:06wasn't Charlie Kirk's parents able to speak? Why weren't his
- 56:09siblings able to speak? And yet with all that pomp
- 56:15and circumstance, you've not heard Donald Trump talk about Charlie
- 56:19Kirk since.
- 56:22Speaker 2: But of course.
- 56:25Speaker 1: You have those out there that will defend them now
- 56:27to say, well, he doesn't have to talk about it.
- 56:29Speaker 2: Everybody grieves different differently. That's true. That's true. It's definitely
- 56:35true that everybody grieves differently.
- 56:38Speaker 1: You have some people that when they lose a loved
- 56:40one or someone that they were close to, they wear
- 56:43their emotions on their sleeve. You have other people who
- 56:47hides it and when they are by themselves, that's when
- 56:50they choose to be vulnerable. That's when they choose to
- 56:53allow themselves to feel the emotions of the person that
- 56:57they've just lost. If you're out there and you've lost somebody,
- 57:05you know what the five stages of grief are.
- 57:10Speaker 2: The nile.
- 57:13Speaker 1: And I don't have these written in front of me,
- 57:15but the five stages of grief, you know, usually starts
- 57:17out with denial, the last one is acceptance, and in
- 57:21the middle, so you have the now, anger, bargaining, depression,
- 57:30and acceptance.
- 57:33Speaker 2: The nile usually comes first, acceptance comes.
- 57:36Speaker 1: At the end, and the rest of them you pick
- 57:41your poison as to how they come. We've not seen
- 57:47Donald Trump be angry about Charlie Kirk's death. We've not
- 57:51seen Donald Trump bargain about Donald Trump about Charlie Curk's death.
- 57:55Speaker 2: Why couldn't it have not been me instead of him?
- 58:01Speaker 1: We've not seen Donald Trump be depressed about Charlie Kirk.
- 58:09And hell, donald Trump accepted it after it happened. We've
- 58:20all been there before, when we lose somebody that we
- 58:25love or somebody that we're close to. We asked that question,
- 58:30why couldn't it have been me instead of them? Why
- 58:32did you have to take my love one away? I
- 58:36felt like we had so much more to do, and
- 58:42you go around and you're mad at anything and anybody
- 58:46because you just want somebody to direct that anger to.
- 58:54When it happens, at first, you're like, oh uh, I
- 58:56cannot believe this just happened.
- 58:59Speaker 2: There's no way that this is real.
- 59:09Speaker 1: This is the same guy that pretty much bent over
- 59:13backwards to help Donald Trump get reelected. And the things
- 59:17that Donald Trump gave him was simply when he was
- 59:20asked by the reporter how is he holding up?
- 59:22Speaker 2: He started talking about the ballroom, how.
- 59:24Speaker 1: The trucks have pulled up for construction of the ballroom,
- 59:33and yet people still support it, support him even go
- 59:37as far as to say, this is what I voted for.
- 59:47And yet wonder why we are in the situations that
- 59:50we find ourselves in. We're racing towards forty threellion dollars
- 59:57in debt, We're raised towards nuclear annihilation. We're racing towards
- 1:00:05a war with Nigeria. We're racing towards a war with
- 1:00:19what's the country Maduro's over And we know that it's
- 1:00:26not about drugs. Of course, that's the lie that Donald
- 1:00:30Trump tells and those who are knee deep in maga,
- 1:00:33that's what they want you to believe. Venezuela, it's not
- 1:00:39about fitting all, It's not about any of that crap.
- 1:00:42It's about the fact that Venezuela has more oil than
- 1:00:46Saudi Arabia. It's not the drugs that we want to stop.
- 1:00:58It's going into venezuel overthrowing Maduro so that way we
- 1:01:02could get a more United States friendly person in charge
- 1:01:05of that country, so that way we can start raping
- 1:01:08them of their oil. So that way he can tell
- 1:01:14everybody that, hey, I brought down gas prices. And by
- 1:01:17the way, speaking of bringing down gas, what happened to
- 1:01:22drill baby drill on day one? Or is he gonna
- 1:01:25blame Biden for that too? What happened to Russia Ukraine
- 1:01:33ending on day one? Or is he gonna blame Biden
- 1:01:36for that too? What happened to If you think about
- 1:01:46all the campaign promises that he made, and one by
- 1:01:52one we're starting to see them not being fulfilled, you
- 1:01:57have people that are knee deep in magazine and hey,
- 1:02:01it's not his fault.
- 1:02:02Speaker 2: You gotta blame those radical judges.
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: You gotta blame Congress, you gotta blame the Supreme Court
- 1:02:09because sometimes they be tripping it's always somebody else's fault
- 1:02:20except for the man who made the promises. The same
- 1:02:25man who does not want to shut down blamed on him.
- 1:02:28But back in twenty thirteen when that shutdown happened, the
- 1:02:33same Donald Trump blamed Obama for that shutdown, basically calling
- 1:02:38him weak. Anytime they're shut down happens, the blame should
- 1:02:41be placed in the president because he's the one in control.
- 1:02:44But the minute you bring that up to somebody who's
- 1:02:47knee deep in maga, they say, well, that was different
- 1:02:49back then. We're talking about something completely opposite now. Oh
- 1:02:54and let me not forget the rhinos in Congress. They're
- 1:02:58blamed for not being one hundred percent on board with
- 1:03:01Donald Trump's agenda. You guys are so luke warm on
- 1:03:06Ron Ran Paul. One minute you love him, the next
- 1:03:09minute he can't stand him. The same thing with Marjorie
- 1:03:11Taylor Green, the same thing with Susan Collins and Lisa
- 1:03:15Murkowski and Mitch McConnell. And let's not forget the biggest
- 1:03:18one of them all, Thomas Massey. Mean, you guys hate
- 1:03:22Thomas Massey because he's doing what exactly standing on his principles.
- 1:03:27I thought you guys were the Party of morality. I
- 1:03:30thought you guys were the party of core principles. And
- 1:03:33because Thomas Massey is standing on his principles, you guys
- 1:03:36got a problem with that. The only thing Thomas Massey
- 1:03:39wants is government to be limited. The only thing he
- 1:03:42wants is for this administration to stop pussing footing around
- 1:03:45and release the f thing files. And by the way,
- 1:03:50since we're on that top at this point, I don't
- 1:03:56even really care about him anymore, because if they were
- 1:03:59to ever find out to come out, we know that
- 1:04:01they will be so bleached that you couldn't believe anything
- 1:04:06you see in them, because we know that that's probably
- 1:04:09what they're doing right now.
- 1:04:12Speaker 2: Cash Mattel and his minions.
- 1:04:13Speaker 1: At the FBI, under the direct authority of Pam Bond
- 1:04:17and Donald Trump, are in there just bleaching those Epstein
- 1:04:20files so that way they don't mention Donald Trump or
- 1:04:22anybody he's associated with, one way or the other.
- 1:04:28Speaker 2: But this is supposed to be the most.
- 1:04:30Speaker 1: Transparent administration in the history of this country. You know,
- 1:04:39you get Caroline Levitt up there, she's a liar. She's
- 1:04:43in some instances worse than create Kergeen Karine, Jean Pierre,
- 1:04:50you get Marco Rubio up there, Liar Cash Mattel, Liar
- 1:04:55Cash Mattel have more energy to go after Johnson, Billis
- 1:04:58and Terry Rogier than he has anybody associated with the
- 1:05:01Epstein file. Go figure. But yet you have so many
- 1:05:09people who believe this administration is doing so well. I'm
- 1:05:14getting everything I voted for and then some. And of
- 1:05:22course you have those Democrats that have come out and say, see,
- 1:05:26this is why you should vote for us up and
- 1:05:27down the ballot in twenty twenty six.
- 1:05:29Speaker 2: Not so fast.
- 1:05:30Speaker 1: I'm not letting y'all off the hook either. Y'all had
- 1:05:33your chance to stop this, and you failed miserably. And
- 1:05:42you wonder why so many people are abandoning both parties
- 1:05:47because both parties are knee deep in bullshit. Let's just
- 1:05:52tell the truth and shame the devil. At the end
- 1:05:54of the day, both parties are knee deep in bs.
- 1:06:04But of course you say that, and you get excoriated
- 1:06:09by both parties.
- 1:06:13Speaker 2: You don't believe that.
- 1:06:14Speaker 1: You're just saying that because you're mad that this didn't
- 1:06:17go that way or that didn't go this way. That's
- 1:06:19not the point I'm making The point I'm making is
- 1:06:22simply that politics is a game, and you have some
- 1:06:27people that are playing this shit pretty good. In closing,
- 1:06:39before I go, there was a turning point event held
- 1:06:45on the campus of the University of Mississippi a couple
- 1:06:49of days ago, and the Vice president was there, Erica
- 1:06:57Kirk was there, and let's just say that what happened
- 1:07:06at that event caused people to, you know, think a
- 1:07:10little different.
- 1:07:12Speaker 2: Not only did jd. Vance get up on that stage
- 1:07:14and say.
- 1:07:14Speaker 1: That he wished his wife would convert to Christianity, but
- 1:07:20the hug between jd. Vance and Erica Kirk is what
- 1:07:24got people talk like, what's going on between these two?
- 1:07:28Something is a mist between the vice president and the
- 1:07:33widow of Charlie Kirk.
- 1:07:41Speaker 2: Listen, you know.
- 1:07:45Speaker 1: It goes back to the argument that I just made.
- 1:07:48We all grieve differently. But there is something strangely amiss
- 1:07:53when you think about Erica Kirk. Because I'll be honest
- 1:07:59with you, if I lost my wife and I became
- 1:08:02a widower, if I truly loved my wife, I would
- 1:08:09be completely just out of it. There's nothing you could
- 1:08:13say or do that would cause me to ever come
- 1:08:16out of the funk that I would be in if
- 1:08:19I lost my wife, But for her, it just seems like, hey,
- 1:08:27he's dead now, I gotta go on.
- 1:08:30Speaker 2: And that's the attitude that you get.
- 1:08:33Speaker 1: And once again it does go back to we all
- 1:08:35grieve differently, but.
- 1:08:39Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 1:08:39Speaker 1: Something does not seem right about this, but it just
- 1:08:44goes into the collection bucket of nothing really seeming right
- 1:08:50in the days and times that we live in. And
- 1:08:52with that being said, ladies and gentlemen, that'll wrap up
- 1:08:55today's edition of the Igarius Williams Show. I want to
- 1:08:57thank you guys once again as always for listening, however
- 1:09:00and wherever you choose to listen. Until next time you gotys,
- 1:09:04Stay safe, take care of God, bless we are out peace.
