  Speaker 1: case for the Save America Act. Yes, we've got some
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: big old backup coming. Reinforcements on the way. The president
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: about to confront all of these Republican senators. I can't
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: wait to see the results. Everything that's happening right now
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: in the lead up to this big meeting, I'll tell
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: you all about it coming up on this edition of Vance. Also,
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: we have breaking news out of New York City overnight
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: as a number of establishment Democrats get thrown out by socialists. Yeah,
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: there's a socialist uprising going on in the Democrat Party.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: And it does not bode well for the United States
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: of America. We will talk about the results from last

• 2:06
  Speaker 1: a lot to get to today. Let me start with
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: the breaking news overnight that Zordon up in New York,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: Zordon Mamdani has, not to be confused, of course, with
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: Zordon from Power Rangers.
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: It is different.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: Zordon Mamdani has has endorsed a bunch of socialist candidates,
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: and they won. They won these primary ballots with a
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: bunch of establishment Democrats in New York City. And it
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: looks like we got a bunch of socialists coming to
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: the United States Congress based on this result yesterday. Now,
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: this is not a situation where it's expected that a
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: Republican candidate can win in the general election. This is
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: New York City. This is crazy town, unfortunately. NPR with
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: the headline, Mamdani's political gamble pays off as his endorsed
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: candidates sweep their primaries. Primary night, New York, the first
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: major test for Zoran. It was widely successful. All three
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: of Mamdani's endorsed candidates for Congress were victorious, marking a
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: massive win for the left. You know, it's funny, like
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: the way the media talk about socialists, they just refer
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: to them generically as the left. If anybody is even
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: slightly conservative, the media refers to them as far right.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: But if you elect a bunch of open borders, hate Israel,
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: burn it all down, abolish ICE, socialists, they're just left.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: Hmm.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: Okay. In case you're wondering about the propaganda that exists
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: in our media, and a major blow for establishment Democrats.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: Mamdani endorsed in three competitive House primary matchups in New York,
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: breaking with Democrat leaders by throwing support behind leftist candidates
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: who were unafraid to criticize Israel and push for ambitious
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: economic policies. Unafraid to criticize Israel, push for ambitious, ambitious
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: economic policies. That would be steal from you and concentrate
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: all power into a corrupt institution we know as the government.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: That's very ambitious. I love the euphemisms here. The biggest
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: upset of the night came in New York's 13th. Mamdani-backed
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: candidate Daria Lisa Avia Chevalier. Look at that name. A
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: 32-year-old community organizer and Democrat socialist, socialist, they're proudly running
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: as socialists, narrowly defeated five-term incumbent, five-term incumbent Democrat Adriano Espiatt,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: 71 years old, to represent upper Manhattan and part of
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: the Bronx. That's according to a race call by the AP.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: And the list goes on here. They say establishment Democrats
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: also suffered another blow elsewhere in the city. In New
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: York's 10th congressional district, progressive challenger and former city comptroller
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: Brad Lander decisively unseated two-term representative Dan Goldman. So this is,
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: first of all, it's hilarious that Dan Goldman just got fired.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: Dan Goldman's a bad person. And he deserves to be fired.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: But not like this.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: Not like this.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: Goldman, oh my God, I can't believe I'm in a
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: position where I'm saying this is an atrocity that Goldman
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: got fired in this way. But they're putting a socialist in.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: So Dan Goldman is the Levi Strauss there, right? He's
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: got daddy's money. He buys a congressional seat. He uses
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: it to have a career with no distinction whatsoever other
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: than just being a hair on fire, Trump derangement syndrome lunatic.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: He's a part of impeaching Trump, and that's his big
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: claim to fame. But again, he's Dan Goldman. He's a
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: ridiculous human being. He's fun to laugh at, candidly. He
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: gets thrown out because the socialists are an insurgent in
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: New York City. And you got Brad Lander, this socialist guy,
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: who's now going to replace him. And All of these guys,
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: every single one of them, there's three big candidates that
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: Mamdani endorsed, and they all won their races yesterday. There's Chevalier,
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: there's Lander, and then there's another one, DSA Stalwart, the
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: Washington Post says, by the name of Claire Valdez, who
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: has won now, destined for Congress, all three of them.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: You understand what these people believe in, to the extent
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: that they believe in anything. They believe in destroying America's sovereignty.
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: They're all abolish ICE lunatics. They don't want us to
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: have any immigration enforcement. They also don't want you to
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: keep your own money. They think that you're irresponsible with it.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: So what they'd like to do is confiscate your money
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: and then decide to distribute it as they will to
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: their friends and benefactors. That's You have open borders and
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: a welfare state. Didn't Milton Friedman warn us against this?
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: You can't have open borders and a welfare state. In fact,
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: that's actually how you commit homicide on a country. That's
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: how you kill a country. If you open your borders
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: wide and then just give out the people's money to
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: whoever claims, whoever pours into our borders, that's how you
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: destroy the country. And that's what these people have in mind.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: And none of these people are like, you know, independent thinkers.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: They all have the same sort of stupid, canned, radical
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: left-wing ideas all the way down the row. Are they
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: for transing the children?
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: Are they for open borders?
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: Are they for concentrating power on a corrupt government? Yes.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: Do they believe all of the left-wing nonsense reflexively? Yes, yes, yes,
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: and yes.
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: All of it.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: And so now I can't it's somehow I can't even
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: believe it's possible. Congress is about to get worse now
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: that Dan Goldman has been fired. What the hell is
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: going on? Now, you may look at this and say, well,
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: there's some great political opportunities here for the right. You know, like,
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: look how crazy they are. The Democrats are not going
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: to be able to put forward any sensible candidate whatsoever
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: going forward. especially into the 2028 election. I've seen a
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: lot of people pointing out like, well, there goes any
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: chance of Josh Shapiro being the nominee in the Democrat
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: Party coming up in 2028. There's no way Democrats are
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: going to nominate him. Now, that assessment may be coming
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: a little bit early. And here's why I say that.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: First of all, we have no idea what the Democrats
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: are going to attempt. Never underestimate their ability to try
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: and steal elections at every level. They routinely rig elections
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: against their own primary voters. You know the history here, right? 2016,
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: they rigged the election against Bernie Sanders so that Hillary
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: Clinton can become the nominee. They didn't like that too
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: many of their own voters liked Bernie, so the establishment
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: rigged it for Hillary. It led to Debbie Wasserman Schultz
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: being fired the first day of the Democrat convention. They
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: made her the sacrificial lamb. And then it happened again
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: in 2020. 2020, you had Bernie Sanders yet again And
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: Barack Obama rigs the field in order to get Joe
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: Biden to win. It was Clyburn and Obama that got
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: all of these other Democrats to drop out of the
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: race so that Biden could have the nomination. They rigged
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: it again. And then in 2024, the Democrat establishment didn't
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: even allow their primary voters to select their nominee. They
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: just imposed Kamala Harris on their primary voters. So the
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: conversation right now about will Democrat voters support Josh Shapiro
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: to become the nominee, it's a little early to have
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: that conversation given the Democrats haven't had a fair primary
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: process to choose a presidential candidate in at least three
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: election cycles.
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: So let's tap the brakes on what the base is
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: going to be able to do on the left. It
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: may very well be that the establishment decides to impose
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: Josh Shapiro on Democrat primary voters. That may happen. Who knows?
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: One way or another, it does seem, though, that the
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: hand is pretty good for Republicans to win in that
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: contest in 2028. Either Democrat primary voters choose an insane
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: person to be their nominee, or the Democrat establishment rigs it,
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: attacks their own primary voters, and then diminishes enthusiasm for
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: the nominee that they pick. One way or the other.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: So yes, there are some things here that could be
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: looking up going into 2028. But again, far too early
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: to tell. And boy, you got to keep your eye
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: on it. And the other piece, of course, is not
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: just rigging the primaries, but rigging the general elections. And
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: coming up, I want to talk to you more about
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: what's going on with the Save America Act, because President
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: Trump is destined to go to the Senate today. He's
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: headed to the Senate lunch to confront Republican senators about
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: getting off their asses and doing the bare minimum to
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: protect America's elections. When you have lunatics like this coming
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: up through the ranks of the Democrats. And the establishment
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: Democrats are already rigging elections. What do you think the
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: more radical versions of these leftists are going to do? Yeah,
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: you know the answer to that. So it's fascinating to watch.
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: One more thing, though, on Dan Goldman, insofar as we
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: are writing his political obituary today. We had some signs
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: earlier this week that this was coming for Dan Goldman.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: Because in New York, did you see that he got
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: thrown out of a coffee shop this week? So I
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: was told, I don't know about you, Chad, but I
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: was told that Dan Goldman got thrown out of a
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: coffee shop. And my first reaction was to laugh. I
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: was like, that's hilarious. That's wonderful. My first reaction, I'll
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: be honest, instinctively was, that's hilarious and wonderful that he
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: got thrown out of a coffee shop. Finally, the baristas
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: are on our side. Yeah, that's not actually how this
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: story broke down. Here's what actually happened. They hated him
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: because he supports Israel. And I believe he's Jewish. Yeah, Goldman. Yeah,
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: he's a Jewish guy. So they probably attacked him because
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: he's Jewish too. And they threw him out because they
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: held bigoted views inside of this coffee shop. So look
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: at this. Here's the New York Times on this story.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: Cafe tells Congressman he's not welcome because of his stance
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: on Israel. Goldman visited a left-leaning coffee shop chain and
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: the shop owner posted caustic remarks on Instagram that made
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: it clear the Congressman should not come back. A small
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: coffee shop chain in New York City created a firestorm
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: with a provocative social media post condemning a congressman who
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: visited one of its branches on Sunday, further underlining tensions
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: over support for Israel in one of New York's most
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: progressive and predominantly Jewish congressional districts. The congressman, Dan Goldman,
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: visited Poetica Coffee in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Oh my God, can
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: you imagine? He was there with his seven-year-old daughter on Sunday.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: These leftists are scum. Look at them. They're eating their own.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: The revolution is coming for the party. The last day
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: for voters to cast early ballots in a Democrat primary
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: race where he's facing a strenuous challenge. Hours later, Poetica
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: put up on an Instagram post that appeared to be
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: written by the shop's owner that made it clear in
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: harsh language he was unwelcome there. We see that you
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: stopped by our shop today for a coffee, the caption read.
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: Under a photo of Mr. Goldman looking at his phone,
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: in front of the shop's cash register, an image that
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: appeared to have been taken from a surveillance camera. Quote,
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: do you see how it doesn't taste like genocide juice?
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: Or are you still having a hard time telling the difference?
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: We don't serve racists, fascists, homophobes, genocide enablers, or anyone
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: in between. Too bad we didn't recognize you right away,
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: or we would have turned you away. You know, Goldman,
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: for years now, has loved to run his suck about
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump. He'll make up all sorts of lies about him,
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: accuse him of all sorts of poisonous things. And now
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: what's happening is it's happening to Goldman. Dan Goldman's being
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: attacked with the very same tactics by people to his left.
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: And Goldman has never had the courage to really call
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: it out. And neither have the rest of these establishment Democrats.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: They've been just kind of like keeping their heads down,
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: not addressing the poison that exists within their own party,
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: allowing an assassination culture especially to take hold, vile assassination culture.
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: They only pay lip service to inflaming the weak and
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: vicious minds that make up their base, thinking that maybe
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: you can get them to open up their wallets or
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: cast their ballots for you if you play their very
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: radical game. And in the end, the revolution is consuming
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: the Democrat Party. So when you hear all of this
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: chatter about, oh, there's a fight going on on the
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: right and conservatives are fighting amongst each other and they
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: disagree and there's a big civil war among Republicans. Yeah,
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: do conservatives have their disagreements? Yes, and they are public,
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: they are pronounced, and they are regularly debated. But meanwhile,
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: the Democrats have a very real civil war going on
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: within their ranks and they have very radical people among them,
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: very radical. And if that Democrat Party actually cared about
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: its future, it would put this down. But chances are
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: they won't. They're cowards. Cowards with power are dangerous. And
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: that's the current state of the Democrat Party, unfortunately. Cowards
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: with power. And let's keep them from getting any more
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: of it, which is why, of course, we need the
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: Save America Act. I'll talk about that in a moment
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: with you, because the president of the United States is
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: confronting Senate Republicans today. and telling them to do this job.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: We've got the details ahead on the program. But first,
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: I want to thank Rumble Wallet for supporting this show.
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: We love Rumble Wallet. We love Rumble. Isn't Rumble great, guys?

  Speaker 1: Thank you to Rumble Wallet. All right. I need a
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: sip of blackout coffee so we could get into this
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: because you and I have to have a conversation about
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: the Save America Act. It's time. It's time. The president
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: of the United States is en route to the Senate today.
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: And the reason he's going is not because he was
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: invited by John Thune. In fact, Chad, did you know
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: that John Thune was caught off guard by this? He
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: didn't even know the president was going to be coming
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: to this Senate Republican lunch. I love the way that
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: this is developing. It was actually Florida Senator Rick Scott,
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: who you've seen on this program before. We've interviewed Rick
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: Scott many times. Rick Scott, the same man who at
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: one point had challenged Johnson to become the leader of
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: the Republican Party in the Senate, and of course is
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: not in that position right now. Rick Scott asked the president, hey,
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: do you want to come to the lunch? And the
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: president said, I absolutely do. And that's how this arrangement
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: got started. which is really, really great. Listen to this.
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: Here is Punchbowl with the report. I don't want to
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: subscribe Punchbowl, not right now. Can Thune win the big
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: Trump meeting? They say Senate Majority Leader John Thune wasn't
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: the one who invited President Trump to the Capitol for
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: the Senate GOP lunch on Wednesday. But Thune has a
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: chance to capitalize on the presidential visit. Thune's Senate GOP
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: conference is preparing for a beating from Trump. A beating.
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: They're getting ready. Daddy's coming to give them their spanking.
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: They're preparing. They're putting on a couple of pairs of
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: extra jeans to get ready to be spanked. This is amazing.
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: If he plays his card right, it could be an
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: opportunity for Thune and Senate Republicans to finally get through
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: to Trump. about what they see as his unrealistic demands.
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: You know what the unrealistic demands are? Election integrity. Unrealistic demands.
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: Election integrity. It may be difficult to think about Senator
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: Rick Scott's invitation to Trump as a positive for Thune.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: who's been at odds with Trump over numerous legislative issues
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: in recent weeks. Scott didn't even tell Foon in advance
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: that he was inviting the president to the Capitol. Republican
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: senators expect that Trump will berate them for not bending
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: to his will on Iran, the filibuster, the Save America Act,
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: and more. Well, good, he should. President Trump should read
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: them the riot act today, bending to his will. Let
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: me ask you a question. Chad, be honest with me.
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: Would Republicans be in the majority in the United States
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: Senate right now were it not for Donald Trump and
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: his voters? Yes or no? Would Republicans in the Senate
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: have power right now were it not for Trump? That's
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: the core question here. Because the thought process that the
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: Senate Republicans seem to be using is, well, we got
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: elected in our state, so we get to do whatever
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: we want, like to hell with what you want. Like,
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: are you serious right now? You realize how historic the
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: 2024 election is? Yeah, for those of you listening on
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: the audio podcast, it is just a wall of no's.
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: It is a wall of no's in chat right now.
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: Everybody's saying the same thing, which is that by the
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: grace of Trump voters, these Senate Republicans have power right now.
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: So in other words- The mandate that they were sent
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: to the Senate for is to fulfill our agenda. And
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: what is our agenda? Election integrity. These are not hard
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: concepts to grasp. And yet John Thune and John Cornyn
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: and Thumbelina Tillis and Mitch McConnell. and Lisa Murkowski, and
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: Susan Collins, and this list, John Barrasso, all of these
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: people keep standing in the way of the agenda that
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: put them into office in the first place. The fact
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: that you have power right now is because of us.
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: You're welcome. Now do what we asked you to do.
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, do what we told you to do. This
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: isn't like some corrupt arrangement. All we're asking for is
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: election integrity. And we need real leadership in the Senate
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: in order to deliver. In fact, here's the president yesterday.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: He was asked about John Thune and he used an
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: expression that he's used before. He goes, look, he's a leader.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: He needs to be a leader. Here's the president yesterday.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: Cut one.
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: He's a leader. John's a leader. That's what being as
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: a leader. But look, we have to be able to
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: get proof of citizenship when you vote.
• 22:55
  Speaker 6: Otherwise, we don't have elections. We have to be able
• 22:57
  Speaker 6: to get voter ID.
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: So John is a leader and hopefully he can get
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: the votes.
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: John is a leader. Hopefully he can get the votes.
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: A gracious statement. A frustratingly gracious statement from the president
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: of the United States, still treating John Thune relatively nicely,
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: but describing him as a leader. He's saying, that's what
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: you're supposed to do, is lead. You can't merely be
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: a weatherman reporting on the state of affairs right now,
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: what kind of precipitation we're dealing with. No, your job
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: is to guide, to lead, to be the coach of
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: this team, to get the players all lined up, to
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: get them winning. That's your job, John. Do it. And
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: John Thune, according to Punchbowl, is really hoping that today
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: is going to be an opportunity for other people to
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: take the brunt of President Trump's ire. He's like, I
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: don't want to have to explain this to him anymore.
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: I don't want to have to tell him we can't
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: do this anymore. So I want other people to tell him.
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: John Thune is hoping to fade into the background. He
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: wants to hover by the Punchbowl and hope that the
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: president doesn't notice him today. The meeting will be the
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: first time in months that Trump will be in a
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: room with the entire Senate Republican conference. It's an opportunity
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: for Thune to lean more on his colleagues, Punchbowl says,
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: and for once not have to be the guy who
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: tells Trump no, or as Thune quipped on Monday, deliver
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: the bad news. Thune and his allies will have a
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: chance to get Trump to see, to see, look how
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: credulously they write about this, that there simply aren't 50
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: votes for getting rid of the filibuster and or for
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: passing the Save America Act. And that continuing to focus
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: on this is a political loser. Guys, you want a
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: political winner? A political winner is a credible election. A
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: political winner is an enthusiastic conservative base. A political winner
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: is doing what the voters sent you to do in
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: the first place. Political loser. What they do constantly is
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: perfectly invert the truth. And they're attacking you as supporting
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: some sort of political loser. How is that even possible?
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: You're attacking the people for having a majority opinion that
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: we should have credible elections? It boggles the mind it's
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: so incomprehensible. And this is possible. Now, it would be
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: one thing if it wasn't possible. Let's just say we
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: didn't have enough Republicans to pass legislations. on a simple
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: majority in the Senate. Well, then it would be like, look,
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: we should really put this legislation forward, let the Democrats
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: vote it down. We'll take what we can get. It's
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: a messaging vehicle. We know they're not going to support it,
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: but we should really try to get them, you know,
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: that kind of thing. That's not what this is. Mike
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: Lee has described over and over and over again that
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: there are multiple paths to actually pass this legislation. And
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: Mike Lee, is a brilliant guy. He really does know
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: the procedure in the Senate. And we've been talking about
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: this longer than almost anywhere, that you can use the
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: rules of the Senate to pass legislation with a simple
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: majority so long as you're willing to endure debate. So
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: long as you're willing to endure debate. It's not that complicated.
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: This thing about cloture, have you heard this expression cloture?
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: Of course you had. The idea is that you need
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: 60 votes for cloture in the Senate. What does cloture mean?
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: Clutcher means to end debate. It is a vote to
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: conclude debate in the Senate. So if you don't have
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: 60 votes, the debate continues until it's exhausted. Now, for
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: many years, the United States senators have used this as
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: an excuse to not even begin debate. They're like, well,
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: we won't be able to end it because we don't
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: have 60 votes. Well, I'm sorry, what? The debate hasn't
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: even started. What do you mean you don't have 60 votes?
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: Why don't you try and convince each other? And then
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: you can get to 60 votes or you'll just keep
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: having the debate until you get to the final vote.
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: That's actually the way the system is supposed to work.
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: But the Senate has become so accustomed to betraying the
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: deliberation that that body is supposed to be committed to.
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: They don't even do it anymore. They don't deliberate. Whatever
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: deliberation is happening is happening behind closed doors, not in
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: front of the American people. It's a betrayal of this
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: system's design. The founders envisioned actual robust deliberative debate. Is
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: it painful? Is it slow? Is it thoughtful? Yeah, it's
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: supposed to be. But it's none of those things right now.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: They just don't have the debates. And then they just
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: pass corrupt legislation that they've devised behind closed doors when
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: they know that they have 60 votes to accelerate through
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: any sort of public debate on the subject. That's how
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: it works. So when Mike Lee says, wait a second,
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: why can't we just start the debate? He's aspiring to
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: the greatest traditions of the United States Senate, the actual
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: construction of the legislative body, which is get on the
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: floor and start running your mouths. It's one of the
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: few times we want you to run your mouth.
• 27:56
  Speaker 7: Do it.
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: Because at the end of that mouth running procedure exercise,
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: you can actually vote on the legislation. And if you
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: have 50 votes and an earlier version of the Save
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: America Act already had 50 votes earlier this year. Mike
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: Lee keeps talking about this. We've got it. It's on
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: the congressional record. We already have 50 votes. That gets
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: us J.D. Vance as a tiebreaker. And boom, we get
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: the Save America Act. Do it. Oh, but Vince, it'll
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: take so long. The Democrats are going to talk forever.
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: It could be weeks. I saw one estimate that it
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: could take something like seven weeks of debate.
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: Fine.
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: Chat, okay, let's ask that question. Chat, would you be
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: okay with seven weeks of debate on the Save America
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: Act if it means that we got it at the
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: end of seven weeks? Would you be okay with that?
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: That's the question. Because last I checked, let me check here,
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: because Mike Lee gave us an update on on the
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: vacation schedule for these idiots for the rest of the year.
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: I'm going to pull it up. It's kind of deep
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: in my, in my, my ex posts. So yes, yes,
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: you'd be okay. Seven weeks. Some people say seven months
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: if necessary.
• 29:05
  Speaker 4: Hmm.
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: Let me see.
• 29:07
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: Here's a, here's a post. Check this out. This is
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: Mike Lee on what they, what they're up to. So
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: seven weeks of debate to pass the safe America act.
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: Look at this. Mike Lee. wrote on X This Week,
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: there are 27 weeks left in the year. 27 weeks, okay.
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: The Senate is scheduled to be in recess for 16
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: of them. That just leaves 11 weeks of them allegedly
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: doing the business of the Americans. people. 11. So let's
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: pretend they got to keep that vacation, that we were
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: okay with that.
• 29:46
  Speaker 3: Go ahead.
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: Take 16 weeks of vacation. Oh, Vince, it's not vacation.
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: We're working in our states.
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, right.
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: It's vacation.
• 29:53
  Speaker 4: 16 weeks.
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: Okay. Let's pretend they keep that. They have 11 weeks.
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: How about you use seven of those 11 weeks, 7-11,
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: use seven of those 11 weeks to debate and pass
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: the Save America Act? We're not even asking you to
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: cut your vacation short. We're just asking you to do
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: your freaking jobs. Now, of course, you shouldn't take vacation.
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: You should actually stand on your own two feet, get
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: the insoles in your shoes, and fight for this thing.
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: Mike Lee said it. The 27 weeks left in the year,
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: the Senate schedule will be in recess for 16 of them.
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: Nothing beats filibustering obstruction like taking away vacation days. Yeah,
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: in fact, this is a good point. This is a
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: very good point from Mike Lee. So what kind of
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: leverage do leaders have in the United States Senate? Well,
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: let's think it through. What kind of things could John
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: Thune do to compel Republicans, establishment Republicans, to actually vote
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: for this thing? Well, there's a couple options. One, Take
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: away committee assignments. If you're not actually going to work
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: to help pass the party's agenda, then why should the
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: party give you coveted committee assignments? So threaten to take
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: them away and then outright take them away if these
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: people fail you. Two, cut them off from political money.
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: John Thune and Senate leadership control all sorts of money
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: that goes to Senate races. You don't get access to
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: that money if you're not actually passing the party's agenda.
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: That's a huge piece. You can compel people to actually
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: join you in doing the right thing by threatening to
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: cut them off. Three, threaten to bring pain to them
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: for their personal adventures. You want to go on vacation?
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: You had a big European trip planned? Yeah, that's done.
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: We're staying in session. We're not going to let you go.
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: You're going to stay in session now. And so these
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: Senate Republicans would have to feel the pain of personal
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: inconvenience in order to get them to do the right thing.
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: Whatever it takes, whatever it takes, by any means necessary.
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: And so President Trump is going to have a big
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: conversation today with these Republicans. And there's a lot to
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: talk about here. And I've got more on this in
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: just a moment, because I think the Save America Act
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: is that important. And we're at a pivotal moment. The
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: president is going into this fight, and there's going to
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: be one of two things that come out of today, presumably. One,
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: the president's going to truly double down, triple down on
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: his calls for the Save America Act, which I do
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: think is the most likely route. And when he walks
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: out of that room, either he's going to finally get
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: some of these guys to break free, or they're going
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: to remain completely stubborn and And this is going to
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: start a new round of fighting between the president and
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: these establishment Republicans who are strongly making the case that
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: they don't deserve any power in the United States Senate
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: to the American people, which breaks my heart because I
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: don't want to see the Trump agenda thrown on its heels.
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: But that's what these guys are doing right now. And
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: so we'll see. We'll see what happens coming up. More
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: ahead in a moment. I do have to thank two
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: great sponsors, though, who really do make this show possible
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: every day. And we are so grateful to them for that. Now,
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: you know, when it comes to health these days, two
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: questions really dominate. For one, who's on a GLP-1? And
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: are you hitting your protein goals? Well, protein matters, but
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: a lot of the powders, you know, they hide sugar, junk,
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: and mystery calories. This program is sponsored by Veracity. It's
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: a brand doing protein differently. You know, after 40, it's
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: not just about eating more protein. It's whether your metabolism
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: can even use it. Now, I love Veracity's doctor-developed metabolic
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: power protein, and it helps a lot because it creates,
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: it gives me steady energy and workouts and work days,
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: no crash, no chalky taste. That's what a lot of
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: people are looking for. I get questions all the time about,
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: does it taste chalky?
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: No, it doesn't.
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: It's great. It's perfect. It's a great way to get
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: your protein. The Myovera formula helps your body use protein
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: for muscle recovery and repair, and it's clean label project

  Speaker 1: Thank you. Thank you for the fast growing trees. Appreciate
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: you guys so much. So you've got President Trump saying
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: it's time for John Thune to be a leader here.
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: And he's going to have to say that directly to
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: his face today, which is good. I like that he's
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: doing this. But you still have these, some of these
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: idiot Republicans who are just straight up bitching and moaning
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: in public. about the Save America Act. They're very upset
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: at you. Now, I'm not surprised that somebody like Thumbelina
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: would be upset because, you know, this idiot has already,
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: you know, decided to pick up his toys and go home.
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: He resigned from his post in the Senate and said,
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: I'm not running again because he knew that Trump voters
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: were about to throw him out. And he just saw
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: the writing on the wall, which is probably the only
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: wisdom he's had in a long time. And here's Tillis,
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: according to Igor Bobich, this guy's a reporter. Tillis said
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: the Save America Act is, quote, going nowhere. We're wasting
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: time on this, said Thumbelina. It's like a remake of
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: a bad movie that just keeps on getting released. It's
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: been an abject failure. At what point do you just
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: stop digging a hole? Well, we could ask you the
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: same question, Thumb. We could ask you the exact same question.
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: At what point do you stop digging this hole for
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: the American people? Igor Bobich asks, why does Mike Lee
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: keep bringing it up? And Tham responds, naivete, or a
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: desire to get more likes on a social media post.
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: Maybe both. I don't know. But it's not based on experience,
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: says Tham. Naivete. You know, they'll ram through surveillance bills.
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: They'll ram through government spying packages. But the Save America Act?
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: Can't even get them out of bed for it. It's
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: a big waste of time, Tham Belinda says. Now, Mike
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: Lee said this is going to be a very useful
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: exercise today for another. So obviously what we want is
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: for them to support the Save America Act. But in
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: the meantime, as I've told you over and over, President Trump, boy,
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: isn't he the great clarifying agent of our time? We
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: really know who's on our side and who's not. Here's
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: Mike Lee saying this is going to be a big
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: moment in history today as the GOP senators will all
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: self-identify in this meeting. about if they're on the side
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: of the American people or not. And President Trump will
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: have the lay of the land. He'll understand what the
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: battle looks like today. Here is cut to this is
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: with the fellows over at the Charlie Kirk program. Take
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: a look.
• 38:25
  Speaker 4: What the American people want, Senator, is we want to
• 38:28
  Speaker 4: know who's who. Who are the other senators that are
• 38:31
  Speaker 4: fighting us on this? And is there going to be
• 38:34
  Speaker 4: an opportunity? You know, President Trump has threatened to name names.
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: Are we going to find out in any of these– you.
• 38:41
  Speaker 4: Know, different processes that are about to play out, that
• 38:43
  Speaker 4: they put their name on this, because I think that's important.
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: The voters want to know who's blocking this. Amen.
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I would imagine that those who speak out one
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: way or another on this tomorrow in that meeting with
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: President Trump and Senate Republicans will self-identify.
• 38:57
  Speaker 8: That's often how it ends up working. But look, regardless
• 39:02
  Speaker 8: of who speaks in which.
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: Direction, I do think it's important to recognize a couple
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: of things. First of all, as you point out, It's
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: not an easy situation. I grasp the fact that we
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: don't have 60 votes. I fully get that. I also
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: get that in many circumstances.
• 39:16
  Speaker 8: That signals that it's not something that we're likely to
• 39:20
  Speaker 8: get passed. This is a rather unique opportunity, though, where
• 39:23
  Speaker 8: number one, our election security requires us to take aggressive action.
• 39:28
  Speaker 8: Number two, we've got a bill that the is really
• 39:30
  Speaker 8: popular among Americans, like three out of four American voters.
• 39:35
  Speaker 8: Democrats and Republicans combined support measures like this one.
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: And they want that done. Number three, it gets more
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: popular over time, more popular.
• 39:44
  Speaker 8: As it's debated, especially because the Democrats' arguments against it
• 39:48
  Speaker 8: don't land. I have yet to hear a.
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: Legitimate argument against them.
• 39:51
  Speaker 4: It's so empty.
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: And so I'm not purporting to claim that this would
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: be easy. I'm not purporting even to claim that I
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: know exactly how this would turn out. What I am
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: saying is In this rare moment, I think it would
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: benefit all of us, particularly Senate Republicans, to stand up
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: for the American people and to use some unconventional tactics
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: to try to get this passed.
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: Yes, indeed. By the way, Mike Lee, I give him
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: all the credit in the world. I know we ask
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: a lot. Well, we don't ask a lot. We ask,
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: in many cases, the bare minimum out of a lot
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: of these guys. But Mike Lee, he has maintained a
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: happy warrior disposition throughout all of this. He's trying to
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: navigate a world where he's really, he is genuinely still
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: trying to convince these Republican senators to do the right thing.
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: He's holding out hope that that's possible. God bless him
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: for drafting the legislation, for fighting for it so publicly,
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: for doing it in the face of the struggle sessions
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: that the rightists that these Republicans have subjected him to,
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: I'm appreciative of him every day. And I marvel that
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: he can continue to maintain a happy demeanor in the
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: midst of all this. But there he is. And saying, yeah,
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: these guys are going to self-identify. The president's going to
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: have a clear lay of the land when this goes down. Now,
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: I saw somebody in chat just ask the following, where's
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: the whip on this? John Barrasso. Yeah, John Barrasso, man,
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: he has really flown beneath the radar here. And and
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: he really and he shouldn't. You know, we obviously spend
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: a lot of time talking about John soon because as
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: President Trump says, he's the leader. But John Barrasso is
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: the majority whip. Now, the whip, for those of you
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: familiar with, you know, Schoolhouse Rock. and how the Congress
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: is supposed to work. The whip's job is to whip
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: the votes. It's to corral his own party and to
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: make sure that everybody, as much as possible, is on
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: the same page in pushing forward the party's agenda. That's
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: Barrasso's job. Now, Barrasso is hiding behind the cover of, oh, well,
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: I support the legislation. I'm one of the co-sponsors. Therefore,
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: I think we should pass the Save America Act. but
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: he's merely hiding behind his ceremonial adoption of the legislation.
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: If he was actually whipping this thing, then he'd be
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: twisting arms right now to get the votes. In fact,
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: if he was actually whipping this thing, he'd be whipping
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: the means to pass it. So Barrasso definitely deserves to
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: be a part of this conversation as well, because Barrasso
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: is also failing us. There is no evidence whatsoever that
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: he is whipping the means to pass this legislation, that
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: he's saying we have to take this to the speaking filibuster.
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: We should take this the distance. We should give up
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: a bunch of floor time because that's how important this is.
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: Seven weeks of debate or whatever the number is. Let's
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: get it going. Barrasso's not doing any of that. He's
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: just keeping his head down and hoping that you don't
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: notice that he's the guy in charge of corralling the votes.
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: That's what's happening right now. So the president's going to
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: have to confront all of these idiots today as he
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: goes in to that luncheon. Meanwhile, the Democrats keep crapping
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: on the Save America Act and pretending that it does
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: all sorts of awful things to the country because they
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: don't have any good arguments against it. Mike Lee is right.
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: Just imagine if we could actually have this floor debate.
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: You'd be served up this kind of garbage like we
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: just got from Dick Durbin. Watch this.
• 43:17
  Speaker 9: Instead, people will need to provide birth certificates or passports
• 43:23
  Speaker 9: or similar documentation that denotes one's citizenship. So how many
• 43:29
  Speaker 9: of us know where you're going to find your original
• 43:32
  Speaker 9: birth certificate? I think it's upstairs in a box in
• 43:35
  Speaker 9: the closet in my case, but I haven't seen it
• 43:37
  Speaker 9: in a long time.
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: Oh, well, I guess Dick Durbin can't vote anymore. Oh, shucks.
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: I guess we're losing the Dick Durbin vote. It's so stupid.
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: It's so stupid. All we're asking is that you prove
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: you're an American citizen when you're registered to vote. That's it.
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: It's not complicated. Now, of course, Democrats will lie about
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: all of this. They're pretending like it's very complicated. Oh,
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: this can't be done. It's going to disenfranchise a bunch
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: of people.
• 44:03
  Speaker 4: No, it's not.
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: Actually, it's going to protect the voting franchise. That's the
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: whole point. I want American citizens to be able to
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: go to the polls and know that their vote is
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: protected from theft, that nobody else can claim to be them.
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: and that there will be no illegal contributions of votes
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: into the election that water down the actual votes of
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: American citizens. That matters a great deal. You know, every
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: time an illegal participates in an election, it cancels out
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: the vote of an American citizen. That is unacceptable. It
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: is a civil rights violation. And therefore, the Save America
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: Act is the single most important civil rights legislation ever
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: this century. And it should pass. And Republicans should heed
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: the words of Trump voters and the president himself when
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: he confronts them today. I'm really looking forward to it.
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: The aftermath of that we'll cover tomorrow on the program.
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: Looking forward to the president's visit today. I think this
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: is going to be good. And he was in Pennsylvania.
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: Any of you in Pennsylvania, in the Lehigh Valley, McCongee,
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: Pennsylvania yesterday, the president meeting with a bunch of great
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: workers yesterday. And he was getting all charged up. You
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: know how the president does this? He goes to these rallies,
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: and they give him energy. And he kind of taps
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: into the energy of the base again. And then he
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: comes back to Washington. He goes, I was just meeting
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: with the base. And they're all fired up for election integrity,
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: which he was talking about yesterday at some length. And
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: you guys are telling me you're not going to do this? Yeah,
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: you're wrong about that. I've got another message for you.
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: So the president goes, it's like Superman charging up with
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: the sun. You know how he needs to charge up
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: every so often?
• 45:44
  Speaker 3: Goes up.
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: Charges up with the sun. This is how President Trump
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: charges up, with a rally and a little YMCA. It's great.
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: So there's the president. In fact, the president had an
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: interesting day yesterday. He was talking about Iran. And look,
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: we got people who live in the Lehigh Valley. Yeah,
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: I went to school in the Lehigh Valley.
• 46:04
  Speaker 4: You know that?
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: I went to DeSales University near Allentown. Yeah, that's where
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: I was. In case, that's a fun fact. That's a
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: fun fact about me. Hey, the president was talking about
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: this Iran stuff yesterday. You notice all these people were
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: like constantly trying to crap all over Trump because he's
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: trying to secure peace in the Middle East. You know,
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: and I've told you over and over throughout this process,
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: this ain't a deal. This ain't a deal. We make
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: the mistake sometimes of slipping into the words, oh, it
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: is a deal. No, but it's a memorandum of understanding.
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: They're navigating towards a deal. And there's a lot of
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: lying going on right now by the Iranians, by people
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: in the United States, by people who either don't support
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: Trump or do support Trump, but they're attacking him because
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: they don't like that he's trying to navigate towards peace.
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: Everyone settle the hell down. Or as I say, keep cool,
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: my babies. Keep cool. President Trump says that the naysayers
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: need to be educated. Listen to the president yesterday, Cup 5, watch.
• 47:03
  Speaker 8: To allies of yours, like Senator Cruz, who's been critical
• 47:08
  Speaker 8: of the Iranians?
• 47:09
  Speaker 6: Well, I think anybody that's been critical of it has
• 47:11
  Speaker 6: to be educated, even if they're friends of mine. Because
• 47:14
  Speaker 6: we have Iran in a position that nobody's ever had.
• 47:17
  Speaker 6: This should have been done for 47 years by other presidents.
• 47:20
  Speaker 6: And we have Iran in a position where their military
• 47:24
  Speaker 6: has been totally wiped out, their leadership has been wiped out,
• 47:27
  Speaker 6: their radar has been wiped out. Everything has been wiped out.
• 47:31
  Speaker 6: They have not a good negotiating position. But despite that,
• 47:35
  Speaker 6: and money that we'll be taking out of Iran is
• 47:38
  Speaker 6: going to go to our farmers to give corn, soybeans,
• 47:41
  Speaker 6: wheat to Iran, because.
• 47:43
  Speaker 9: They have a hunger.
• 47:44
  Speaker 6: Problem, they have a food problem, they have a medicine problem.
• 47:48
  Speaker 6: They've got a lot of problems.
• 47:49
  Speaker 3: And they have an inflation.
• 47:51
  Speaker 6: Their inflation now just did 300 percent. So they have
• 47:55
  Speaker 6: a lot of problems.
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: You know, I know you're not a baby, Wall the Shark.
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: Wall the Shark's like, I'm not a baby. Don't say
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: keep cool, my babies. You sound like a baby.
• 48:07
  Speaker 2: Keep cool.
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: The president's right. Keep cool, my babies. Keep cool. These
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: people need to be educated. And this is interesting. I
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: saw a post. This is a great one. This is
• 48:17
  Speaker 1: from the Misfit Patriot. And this summarizes it really nicely.
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: Just think about this. Here's what he said. Unless you
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: truly believe Trump spent the past 40 years saying Iran
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: can't have a nuclear weapon and then bombed the F
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: out of them for three months, destroyed all their enrichment sites,
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: killed every one of their leaders, then killed their replacements,
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: then killed the replacements replacements. Unless you truly believe he
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: destroyed their Navy, the Air Force took over the Strait
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: of Hormuz and threatened to take out Karg Island if
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: they didn't come to the table just so he can
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: make a deal that helps the IRGC continuing to do
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: all the crap that made him go Don Wick on them.
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: then you have nothing to worry about. It's perfectly reasonable
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: not to trust the Iranian terrorist regime honoring any deal
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: they make with the United States. It's not reasonable to
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: start attacking the administration unless you truly believe Trump felt
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: the same as you do for over four decades and
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: then all of a sudden turned into Obama overnight. Let
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: the man cook. He's right about that. He's totally right
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: about that it's like what he's oh he's trying to
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: empower terrorism no nobody's done more to bring Iran to
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: its heels than Donald Trump to its knees than Donald
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: Trump nobody Let the man cook. And the president says,
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: you know, Iran did this at this very moment. There's
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: a lot of lies coming out. He said, you know,
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: this whole thing about whether inspectors are going to be
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: able to go in. He's like, yes, they agreed to that.
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: And yes, they're lying in public about it. Listen to this.
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: Cut six. Here's the president.
• 49:58
  Speaker 9: Iranians are saying there's no scheduled visit for the IAE inspector.
• 50:02
  Speaker 1: Is that part of your agreement?
• 50:04
  Speaker 4: They're wrong.
• 50:06
  Speaker 3: They're wrong. They know they're wrong.
• 50:08
  Speaker 6: They told us inside and we have it down 100% inspections.
• 50:12
  Speaker 6: And if they were right, I'd cancel the meetings right now.
• 50:18
  Speaker 5: From your view, Mr.
• 50:19
  Speaker 7: President, when will those inspectors actually be on the ground
• 50:22
  Speaker 7: at the appropriate time?
• 50:23
  Speaker 6: There's no rush, but they'll be on the ground at
• 50:26
  Speaker 6: the appropriate time.
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they'll be on the ground. That's a settled matter.
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: In fact, the president this morning was posting about this
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: other stuff with Iran. There's a lot of nonsense, a
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: lot of gum flapping going on about, oh, Iran's going
• 50:42
  Speaker 1: to charge tolls and Iran's not going to let the
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: inspectors in and Iran's not actually going to do the
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: thing that they said they would do. The president's like, yeah, no,
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: we're going to make them do the thing that they
• 50:50
  Speaker 1: said they would do. Here's the president this morning. He goes,
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: Iran has informed the United States that despite troublemaking fake
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: news reporting to the contrary, there are no tolls no
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: insurance costs, and no other charges of any kind being
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: sought or received by Iran on ships traveling the Strait
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: of Hormuz. If this is false information, the president warns,
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: negotiations would end immediately. Additionally, no money. No money has
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: been given to Iran or released from their money to
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: them by the United States. We will be releasing some
• 51:29
  Speaker 1: of their money that is totally controlled by us to
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: our farmers and ranchers for the purchase of corn, wheat, soybeans,
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: and more. Food is desperately needed in Iran. We will
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: be purchasing it for them exclusively from the United States.
• 51:47
  Speaker 1: Thank you for your attention to this matter, President Donald J.
• 51:52
  Speaker 10: Trump.
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: You got that? So what do we say? Let them cook. Hell,
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: he's even buying the ingredients. Corn, wheat, and soybeans from
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: American farmers. Let the man cook. Holy cow.
• 52:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: And there's also been this other thing going around that like, oh,
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: I think Marco Rubio hates the deal. Marco Rubio, he
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: really doesn't like this MOU.
• 52:18
  Speaker 2: Really?
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: The Secretary of State who works for Donald Trump, the
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: guy who's like his chief diplomat, hates the deal? That's
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: funny because Rubio just told everyone to shut up and
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: read the MOU. People should actually read it, he says.
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: The language is very strong. Listen to Marco Rubio, cut seventh.
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: to allies here in the region?
• 52:38
  Speaker 5: That most certainly will come up in these conversations. And
• 52:42
  Speaker 5: there are items outside the MOU that are certainly going
• 52:44
  Speaker 5: to be covered, but that's one that will have to
• 52:45
  Speaker 5: be covered.
• 52:46
  Speaker 7: It'll be discussed.
• 52:47
  Speaker 5: I think a careful reading of the MOU will see
• 52:49
  Speaker 5: that when you talk about, for example, a complete and
• 52:52
  Speaker 5: end of hostilities in the entire region, well, that's not possible.
• 52:56
  Speaker 5: You can't have the end of hostilities and conflicts in
• 52:58
  Speaker 5: the region as long as Iranian proxies are launching missiles
• 53:02
  Speaker 5: and drones from Iraq and are participating in terrorism like
• 53:05
  Speaker 5: Hamas did and like Hezbollah did.
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: So I do think it's covered by the MOU.
• 53:09
  Speaker 5: And it is an issue that will be gotten to
• 53:12
  Speaker 5: at the appropriate time in these negotiations.
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, these terror proxies, they're all covered in the Memorandum
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: of Understanding. Let's see, how many points deep is it
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: covered in the MOU? Which, where is it? Let's see.
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: It's item one. It's number one. It's the very first item.
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: Terror proxies, knock it off. That's number one. People should read.
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: the MOU. Now, luckily, this audience did. In fact, we
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: read it together. The second it came out, you and
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: I read it together, and so therefore, you know these details.
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: But Marco Rubio is saying, yeah, there's a lot of
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: other people who need to read. Maybe do some reading.
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: Less talking, more reading. He also says that Iran could
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: have a very bright future. It's not a guarantee. Nothing's
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: a guarantee in this life, but In this case, Iran
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: has demonstrated for many years that it is composed of
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: a lot of terroristic lunatics at the top. But he says, look,
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: if they make the right decisions here, they could have
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: a very bright future with foreign, not American, but foreign investment.
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: Listen to this.
• 54:10
  Speaker 8: Cut it.
• 54:12
  Speaker 5: If Iran makes a decision, if its leadership makes a
• 54:15
  Speaker 5: decision that they want to be a country instead of
• 54:17
  Speaker 5: a revolutionary movement that exports terror, they're going to have
• 54:20
  Speaker 5: an opportunity to do incredible things in Iran. I'm not
• 54:23
  Speaker 5: promising you that that's the choice they're going to make.
• 54:25
  Speaker 5: I'm saying if that's the choice that they make, then
• 54:27
  Speaker 5: there will be opportunities. And those opportunities could include investment,
• 54:31
  Speaker 5: as you've seen other countries in this region benefit from investment,
• 54:34
  Speaker 5: from foreign direct investment. It won't be our investment. It
• 54:37
  Speaker 5: won't be our government money. But I think that is
• 54:41
  Speaker 5: something that's going to have to depend on progress made
• 54:44
  Speaker 5: on a host of other security issues that have to
• 54:48
  Speaker 5: be confronted in the days to come.
• 54:51
  Speaker 1: See what I'm saying? So Marco Rubio and J.D. Vance
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: are saying the same exact thing. And yet, of course,
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: what you're watching is the efforts to try and pit
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: them against one another and sow division. They're saying the
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: same stuff, which is, yeah, we don't trust words. We
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: trust actions. Yeah, there's no guarantee this is going to
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: work out, but we're doing everything we can to try
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: and make it work. And if they fail, we're going
• 55:11
  Speaker 1: to drop bombs right on their foreheads again, as the
• 55:14
  Speaker 1: president of the United States would say. What a team.
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: What a team that the president has around him. What
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: a clever idea, by the way, to unfreeze these Iranian
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: assets by buying American farm products so you could feed
• 55:24
  Speaker 1: the hungry Iranian people. That's the art of the deal.
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: That's a great move. Marco Rubio also emphasizing what the
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: president said this morning. No, Iran's not charging tolls on
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: the straight. That's insane. Here's the secretary of state discussing it.
• 55:40
  Speaker 4: Cut nine.
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: Let me ask you about Hormuz, if possible.
• 55:44
  Speaker 4: Can the U.S.
• 55:44
  Speaker 3: And allies, can they guarantee navigation, freedom of navigation in
• 55:48
  Speaker 3: the state?
• 55:49
  Speaker 7: Well, that's the law.
• 55:50
  Speaker 5: It's an international waterway. No country is allowed to charge
• 55:54
  Speaker 5: tolls or fees on an international waterway.
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: That's existing international law.
• 55:58
  Speaker 5: That's the way it is in international waterways all over
• 56:01
  Speaker 5: the world, and that's the way we expect it will
• 56:02
  Speaker 5: be here.
• 56:02
  Speaker 1: So I don't think we.
• 56:03
  Speaker 5: Have anybody to convince around here in that regard. I
• 56:06
  Speaker 5: think all the countries in this region would agree with us.
• 56:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think all the countries would agree. and they
• 56:12
  Speaker 1: better agree. The president's saying, you know, if you try
• 56:15
  Speaker 1: and mess with that straight, I'll tell you what, I'll
• 56:17
  Speaker 1: take it over, and we'll just start charging tolls. How
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: about that? So knock it off, as always. Man, the president.
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: Tell me something, chat. Why is it easier for the
• 56:26
  Speaker 1: president to get an MOU with Iran than it is
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: with Senate Republicans? Why is that? What could that be about?
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: What could that be about? I asked that question yesterday
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: on X, and I had a couple people respond. They
• 56:40
  Speaker 1: were like, well... Maybe he should try surrendering to Senate
• 56:43
  Speaker 1: Republicans like he did to Iran. Surrendering. Did you hit
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: your head? Does killing the top two levels of Iranian leadership,
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: destroying their Navy, their Air Force, diminishing their ballistic missile
• 56:55
  Speaker 1: capacity to nothing, destroying their nuclear program, putting them in
• 56:57
  Speaker 1: an economic chokehold, does that sound like surrendering to Iran?
• 57:02
  Speaker 1: If that's surrendering to Iran, I'd hate to be John
• 57:05
  Speaker 1: Thune right now. Don't stand near any windows. I don't
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: even know if that'll help. The strikes are coming. We're
• 57:11
  Speaker 1: going to drop a bomb on the Congress. It's so crazy.
• 57:16
  Speaker 1: Why is it easier to get an MOU with Iran
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: than Senate Republicans? Think about that today. That's the homework.
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: Think about that particular question today. Crazy to me. The
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: president did have a good time in Pennsylvania yesterday. It
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: was nice getting back together with the base. Here he
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: is on the campaign trail. He told a hilarious story.
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: about a cop who's now making bank on the stock
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: market thanks to the Trump economy. Here's the president of
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: the United States cut 10. Watch this.
• 57:49
  Speaker 3: They were not happy, right? But the front row, they
• 57:52
  Speaker 3: became actually very famous, front row Joe's. And the typical 401k,
• 57:56
  Speaker 3: as you know, is up almost $ 30, 000 in, it was.
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: 12 months, it was 13 months.
• 57:59
  Speaker 2: It's up 44%. Think of that.
• 58:09
  Speaker 3: Up 44%. Because, you know, as goes the stock market,
• 58:16
  Speaker 3: so goes a lot of your own wealth. And I
• 58:18
  Speaker 3: tell about this police officer, I met a police officer,
• 58:21
  Speaker 3: first time, similar thing, but now the numbers are even more.
• 58:24
  Speaker 3: I met, I was in New York, I met a
• 58:26
  Speaker 3: great police officer, New York finest, and he said, sir,
• 58:29
  Speaker 3: I want to thank you.
• 58:30
  Speaker 1: I said, for what?
• 58:32
  Speaker 3: He said, my wife didn't think much of me, very much.
• 58:36
  Speaker 3: We were having marital difficulty, actually. She thought I was nothing,
• 58:39
  Speaker 3: I'm a police officer, I'm a tough guy. Looked at him,
• 58:41
  Speaker 3: the muscles were all over the place. He didn't suffer
• 58:43
  Speaker 3: from that, but she thought maybe that muscle wasn't so
• 58:46
  Speaker 3: good because he was always losing money in the stock market.
• 58:51
  Speaker 3: And he said, sir, in the last year and a half,
• 58:55
  Speaker 3: my 401K is up 74%, sir, and she thinks I'm
• 59:00
  Speaker 3: Warren Buffet, she thinks I'm a super genius.
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: I said, how are you getting along with her?
• 59:07
  Speaker 3: He said, well, I'm not so sure I like her anymore.
• 59:10
  Speaker 3: but that's like i won't tell you that i refuse
• 59:13
  Speaker 3: to say that he's getting along just fine but a
• 59:17
  Speaker 3: lot of people have come up to me dave and
• 59:18
  Speaker 3: they thank.
• 59:19
  Speaker 10: Us he's so rich you can dump her now that's
• 59:21
  Speaker 10: pretty funny i love that uh that was good you
• 59:25
  Speaker 10: know what let me uh You know, I'm not the
• 59:28
  Speaker 10: president's doctor, but let me give him a prescription here anyway.
• 59:30
  Speaker 1: You ready for this? Do a ton. Do a lot
• 59:34
  Speaker 1: of these rallies. Just get back out there with the voters.
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: There's all sorts of people in Washington who are always
• 59:39
  Speaker 1: trying to work Trump. Oh, this is what you should do.
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: And this is going to help you and blah, blah.
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: And meanwhile, they're really just trying to help themselves. Just
• 59:46
  Speaker 1: get back out there with the voters. Just spend a
• 59:47
  Speaker 1: lot of time with the base. Charge up, brother. And
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: then go back into these fights and keep fighting for
• 59:53

  Speaker 7: I'm on the ballot. Why is he saying that? You
