Episode 1259 - I Hate To Say I Told You So, But... · Dumbasses Talking Politics

0:00
Donald Trump has done something else that I cannot support.
0:04
This leads me to worry that have conservatives actually lost their way because
0:09
it sure seems like they might have.
0:11
Gavin Newsom signs a bill into law that will further lead this country away
0:16
from our founding principles.
0:17
And I hate to say that I told you so, but I told you so. This is Gene and you're
0:23
listening to Dumbasses Talking Politics.
0:28
Hey hey welcome back to dumbasses talking politics i hope you had a great weekend,
0:34
mine was kind of just there so anyway let's get to it you know i usually i was
0:40
going to do this last night and i decided no i got to do it in the morning i
0:43
just wake up early and then i noticed gosh now i know why i don't do it the night before,
0:48
stuff just happens and it happens a lot So there are two big stories.
0:53
First off, let's bring up this story about Krista Gale Pike.
0:58
This is the broad murder, vicious, brutal, cruel, unrepentant murder,
1:06
who murdered a gal back in 1995, a Colleen Slemmer. Let's not forget her.
1:12
And apparently I mean, murdered her Beat her in the head with a brick.
1:19
Slashed her throat Six times Just very cruel Broke her skull Kept part of her
1:27
skull As a souvenir This was a wonderful woman This was a burgeoning serial killer.
1:34
Anyway, no repentance. When she was given the death sentence,
1:39
she was like, okay, I'm giving the death sentence. Whatever.
1:42
You got to do what you got to do.
1:44
And then they botched a 30 years later, they gave her the death penalty through
1:50
a lethal injection and they botched it.
1:53
And essentially what I told you last week was, you know, they stuck the needle.
1:57
It probably went through her vein and then into her tissue. And that's exactly
2:01
what they are now saying it did, that they missed the vein.
2:05
By the way, here's some dirty little secret. They missed the vein at the hospital
2:11
too when they tried to revive her.
2:13
So it's something's wrong with her veins there. Who knows? Bad diet,
2:18
not enough water, just an evil whore that needed to die. And God said,
2:23
no, just, yeah, let's let her suffer. Well, she's brain dead.
2:28
So I guess we can go out and say that the execution wasn't botched,
2:34
that it did whatever it was supposed to do.
2:37
And I know her attorneys are talking about, oh, the cruelty,
2:40
the cruelty, the cruelty. I don't care.
2:42
I personally think you don't want cruelty. Well, then do firing squads.
2:47
Do hanging, do something, do... Let's bring back to guillotine.
2:51
If you really are worried about the cruelty that the suffering she's going through,
2:55
first off, if she's brain dead, she is not suffering.
2:58
She's gone. She's basically dead.
3:00
So congratulations, Tennessee You had a successful execution And.
3:08
Couldn't have happened to a better person And if she suffered a little bit,
3:13
It still is far less than what that poor Slemmer had to go through Colleen Slemmer
3:18
had to go through in 1995 In other news We really need to start watching who comes into our country,
3:29
and know who they are because there are other countries, our enemies,
3:34
that seem to come into this country and do whatever the hell they want.
3:38
And they just come and go whenever they want, causing all sorts of havoc or
3:44
running their rules, their laws from their country in our country.
3:49
In this case, we're talking about China.
3:51
So China has been known to have secret police in the United States.
3:57
They've got a police force in Texas by the Chinese consulate.
4:03
We knew that. That was a big thing.
4:06
California we know they're running illegal businesses in California We know
4:10
they're donating to certain political parties I'll let you guess which ones,
4:14
We know that's happening,
4:16
The books have been written about this stuff No one seems to really do anything about it Well,
4:22
I guess they caught somebody.
4:25
This is from Fox News. A California realtor accused of spying on a Taiwanese
4:29
official's family for Beijing was arrested at LAX as she tried to leave for
4:33
China, federal authorities announced on Sunday.
4:38
Wang Yingzhen, 34 of Irvine, also known as Heather, allegedly worked with an
4:44
associate to photograph or record the family outside their Seattle home,
4:49
according to the criminal complaint obtained by Fox News Digital.
4:53
Now, understand something about China. China is not done with Taiwan.
4:57
China has a lot of plans for Taiwan. They are going to evade eventually.
5:02
They're not going to do it under Trump. They're waiting for a Democrat to become
5:06
the president, especially after what we've done with Iran.
5:10
But they are not giving up on Taiwan And what they're doing here Is exactly
5:15
what they typically do They're hunting them down They're hunting these Taiwanese down,
5:21
And they will either disappear Or have heart attacks or something But these
5:29
people are dangerous And they don't care where they have to go They don't care
5:34
if they have to come to the United States,
5:36
They'll come to the United States They'll use their visas If they have people in the United States.
5:42
They will contact them And they will say, hey, go do this Is this gal a full-fledged spy?
5:48
Probably not She's a real estate agent in Irvine,
5:52
But she's in bed enough with the Chinese government That when they say something,
5:57
she'll do it By the way, that's how Islam works too Now I've given you the definition
6:03
of Islam Which is a theology,
6:07
a political movement And a military doctrine Versus Muslims Which are basically,
6:14
Just people who follow the religion,
6:17
Here's the reality. Muslims have to follow Islam.
6:21
And if an Islamist decides to contact a Muslim, there's a 50% chance that Muslim
6:27
is going to do what he needs to do because that's part of the religion.
6:32
Same thing with China. Communism, I know China is not a big fan of religion,
6:40
but communism to the communists is a religion.
6:45
I'm reading a fantastic book called The Naked Communists This was written back
6:49
in the 70s about communism It is actually a book used.
6:56
By the FBI and the CIA To understand the psychology of a communist and understand
7:02
their behaviors Guess what?
7:04
The communists haven't changed from 1970, 1960, 1950 to today It's the same
7:10
thing You talk to socialists or technically they're communists You talk to them,
7:16
you listen to AOC, you listen to Mom Donnie, you listen to even Gavin Newsom to an extent.
7:23
They all have the same ideas. They all share the same theology,
7:27
and that theology is communism.
7:30
Okay, so she's being arrested for not reporting herself as a foreign agent,
7:36
which means she's just going to get slapped on the wrist and deported if she's an immigrant.
7:43
I think she probably is. She's just going to get slapped on the wrist,
7:46
maybe serve three. She's probably already out on bail and then be deported back to China.
7:53
There's nothing that's going to happen to this gal.
7:56
So this stuff just happened today. I decided to go over it. Maybe if there's
8:00
more news on it, I'll bring it up tomorrow.
8:03
But I mean, I am literally reading this stuff right now.
8:08
OK, so let's get let's get to some more news. Donald Trump's first term was
8:12
fantastic. I got to tell you, his second term. And if you listen to my podcast
8:17
that I released last Friday, his second term is very good. There's no question.
8:21
But he is doing something.
8:24
He is not as good as he was before because he seems to be worried about the
8:30
elections and leaning closer and closer to the same thoughts that the leftists are believing.
8:38
Okay. And that is giving away free shit.
8:41
And I really don't like this. I don't think we need this. And he seems to do
8:45
this before every election.
8:47
So this is what he's doing now. And I think this is indicative of a bigger problem
8:53
with the Republican Party. and we need to talk a little bit about it.
8:56
According to the AP News, Donald Trump is promising more payments to voters
9:01
just ahead of the November 3rd midterms, this time to more than 20 million seniors,
9:06
giving them $90 each to pay for Medicare payments.
9:10
The announcement, made late Friday night by Trump on social media,
9:15
comes after the president last month said about 1 million people would get rebate
9:19
checks of $500 for Affordable Care Act premiums.
9:25
He also promised on the campaign trail to send every American adult $5,000 if
9:31
Republicans retain control of the House and Senate in the midterm elections.
9:37
That pledge, which would require approval from Congress, would likely cost more
9:41
than $1 trillion, adding to the deficit and worsening inflation.
9:44
Of course, Let's understand something. This is coming from the AP News.
9:48
So they're always going to put a leftist spin on it.
9:51
The AP News did not give a rat's ass when Obama and Biden blew out the actual deficit.
10:01
I mean, the I'm sorry, the world record holder for deficit spending is Barack
10:06
Obama with with Joe Biden a close second.
10:11
I
10:13
Don't want to hear much from the AP News about Donald Trump and his deficit
10:17
spending. On the other hand, this is a terrible idea.
10:22
I think the worst thing, I think the problem we're having now is,
10:27
okay, Republicans are probably going to lose the House and Senate.
10:32
I think we might keep the Senate, but it looks like we're going to lose the House.
10:36
The polls are kind of on the rail. I mean, everything is within error.
10:43
So we might keep both of them, but it's very doubtful.
10:47
And the one thing that Donald Trump is doing, I don't like, throwing money at the problem.
10:53
First off, throwing money out there. The $5,000 thing for each American adult
10:58
is a stupid idea. That's just dumb.
11:00
Why don't you take that $5,000 for each American adult and just put it into
11:04
the deficit and try and cut the deficit? That would be much better.
11:09
And then combine that with cutting spending. Now, I do like Trump in that he
11:13
has cut some unnecessary bureaucracy, but Trump hasn't cut his spending.
11:18
His spending is just as bad as Joe Biden's or Barack Obama's.
11:22
Matter of fact, he'll probably spend the same amount of money that Barack Obama
11:26
spent after his eight years.
11:28
I like the fact that he's going out there and kind of trying to slim down entitlements
11:33
a bit, but he's not slimming them down enough.
11:38
Republicans seem to have a problem They've got a real messaging problem A serious
11:45
messaging problem And that messaging problem has to do with They don't know
11:49
that our ideas Conservative ideas.
11:54
Republican ideas Republicans aren't all conservative Donald Trump's not a conservative,
11:57
by the way Republican ideas are better than Democrat ideas Democrat ideas are crazy They're crazy,
12:04
All a Republican needs to do is compare our policies to their policies.
12:10
That's all you have to do is go out there and compare the policies,
12:14
compare the fiscal policies.
12:17
When you've got a Mamdani or
12:19
you've got an AOC who's probably going to run in 2028 or a Kamala Harris,
12:25
sit back and just compare Kamala Harris's Medicare for all, which is what is
12:30
being pushed now by the Democrats and basically tear that apart and say exactly what needs to happen,
12:37
which is basically as we need to clean up the medical system,
12:40
but we need to clean up the medical system because the government has its sticky
12:43
little fingers and everything.
12:45
We need to get the government out of the medical system.
12:49
We need to say, here's why drug prices are so high.
12:54
And then, you know, like we talked about on Friday, drug prices have gone down.
12:59
No one's quite touting that. Why are they not touting that? Drug prices have gone down.
13:06
And they've gone down because the government sat there and said,
13:09
well, you know, believe it or not, Donald Trump used the free market to lower,
13:14
drug prices, not government regulations or anything. He took away regulations.
13:21
And that's how the drug prices went down. That is the messaging. Explain it. Explain it.
13:29
And here's the thing. You can't keep talking about what you did in the past.
13:32
You need to talk about what's happening now.
13:35
Because elections, Dana Perino said this on The Five, and I really like this.
13:41
Elections are about the future. They're not about the past. That's why the closing
13:45
of the border is not a big deal.
13:47
But here's the problem. You get a Democratic Congress, you get a Democratic
13:51
president, those borders are going to be wide open again.
13:54
You need to sit there and point out that Democrats only give a damn about foreigners
14:00
because that's their voting base. Look at New York.
14:05
New York has something like 45% immigrant. It's some crazy number.
14:08
I'm making that up. I'm not sure what it is, but it's way high.
14:12
I know it's way high because I have seen the number before and I just can't
14:16
remember what it is, but that's who they care about. They don't care about the American citizen.
14:21
Okay, so Donald, Don, Don, President Trump, whatever, could you do me a favor?
14:27
Just get mess, do what needs to be done. Don't shower people with money.
14:32
It's just going to raise inflation.
14:34
It's just going to cost more.
14:38
If you think tariffs are the way to go, explain why.
14:42
Because I don't think they're working. Well, they're not as bad as they're made
14:45
out to be, but they're not working either.
14:48
Just explain your positions because here's the reality your positions are good,
14:53
and stop trying to buy off people that's unnecessary let the democrats do that
14:59
and then when they get elected fail,
15:01
because you're going to do this and if you fail you better believe cnn msnbc ap news,
15:07
all of the news media is going to sit there and say you failed,
15:10
all right gavin newsom california California is becoming a crap hole state so
15:18
much so I mean I all weekend.
15:21
I'm lucky the power did not go out once it did not go out once that was fantastic,
15:27
but every tower cell tower in the area was shut down so I would lose cell service,
15:34
all day I did lose internet because they shut down all the cell towers because
15:40
we have Santa Ana winds and 103 degree temperatures.
15:44
So it's, I lost communication with the world for a while. So that kind of sucked.
15:49
But Gavin Newsom is now moving into the world of Islam and basically,
15:57
you know, I can't put up a, we can't put up a nativity scene on Christmas,
16:03
in a, in a public spot.
16:06
I can't set up a cross Yes.
16:08
In my backyard without getting sued. But let's make official holidays of Islamist holidays.
16:16
Okay, so according to the California Post, California Governor Gavin Newsom
16:21
signed into law a bill that formally recognizes two Muslim holidays as state
16:26
holidays on Sunday, making it, and notice it's on Sunday.
16:31
Yeah, it's the Christian day of go to church. It's the holy day.
16:36
And I think the other reason he did it on a Sunday It kind of hides it The media
16:41
isn't really out on a Sunday I think he knows this isn't a popular idea.
16:47
Making it the second state to formally recognize holidays statewide.
16:51
California Assembly Bill 2017 officially added Ayd al-Fatar and Ayd al-Hadha,
16:58
to the list of state holidays, which would permit public schools and colleges
17:02
to close and allow state employees to be,
17:05
eligible to observe those holidays. Oh, well, goody.
17:10
The public schools and colleges will get the option to close?
17:15
Yeah, let me get it. That law is actually worse than I thought it was.
17:19
I thought it would give employees the option not to come to work.
17:22
Apparently, no, they can close the public schools. Guess what's going to happen
17:26
on Ied al-Fatir and Ied al-Daha? They're going to close the public schools.
17:32
Frickin' incredible. I mean, they don't even really have a holiday for frickin' Easter.
17:40
Did you know that? California doesn't really have an official holiday for Easter.
17:43
Easter is officially closed. Sunday is an official day, but it's just called
17:50
a spring break. They don't actually call it Easter break anymore.
17:55
And typically you have to go back to school the day after Easter.
17:58
So there really is no official recognition
18:01
of Easter. And that is the most important holiday to Christians.
18:05
Everyone loves Christmas, but that's because everyone loves Christmas.
18:08
Christmas isn't the most important holiday.
18:12
Allow state okay however schools and businesses will not be required to close
18:16
on these days and courts will be required to stay open,
18:19
this makes california the second state in the country after washington state
18:23
there's a freaking shock to pass a statewide legislation recognizing the muslim holidays,
18:29
before signing ab-217 newsom had multiple bills on his desk that provided protections
18:35
and exemptions for other religious observances including jewish holidays such
18:40
as Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.
18:44
Okay Again that's just trying to Even the soil so it Makes it easier this law wasn't a good law,
18:52
And I think Gavin Newsom knows it that's why he signs it on a Sunday he would sign this On a Tuesday,
18:59
And have all sorts of Media around him and They'd be celebrating and he'd be
19:05
Hending out pens I never heard about this until I caught it on Twitter.
19:10
So I told you this was going to happen. Another thing I told you was going to
19:15
happen was that we're going to have a big, I just told you this last week,
19:20
we're going to have a big problem with the MAID program coming to the United States.
19:26
If you don't remember the MAID program, MAID stands for Medical Assistance in Dying.
19:31
It is a statewide program in Canada.
19:34
And now it's looking like 5% to 7% of Canadians are dying from the MAID program.
19:43
So suddenly MAID is becoming one of the top killers in Canada.
19:49
And by the way, it's all white people. They're just killing white people.
19:52
It's insane what they're doing up in Canada.
19:55
And I told you it's coming to the United States. Illinois just signed it into law That fat J.B.
20:02
Pritzker actually signed it in I loved, again, I'm going to point this out Do
20:07
you notice everybody who's for the MAID program is for Medicare for All?
20:12
Every person, Canada, huge Medicare for All country And they don't have enough
20:18
medical care And so now they have to start killing the patients.
20:22
Anyway, so this is from Perplexity. I heard this yesterday and I was like, oh, wow.
20:29
Four orders of Catholic nuns joined a Catholic health care organization and
20:34
the diocese of Rockville Center sued New York officials and federal court over
20:39
the state's new Medical Aid and Dying Act.
20:42
The central claim is that the law's counseling, referral, documentation,
20:46
and accommodation requirements
20:48
could force religious ministries to facilitate physician-assisted suicide in
20:54
violation of their Catholic beliefs and federal constitutional conscience protections.
21:00
The lawsuit plaintiffs include the Carmelite Sisters for the Aged and Infirm,
21:06
the Dominican Sisters of Hawthorne, the Missionary Sisters of St.
21:10
Benedict, the Little Sisters of the Poor, the Diocese of Rockville Center,
21:15
and Bishop John O'Barris, several Catholic health care ministries,
21:20
including Catholic Health.
21:22
The lawsuit was filed on July 17th in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of New York.
21:30
It names, that's good, by the way, that's good.
21:33
It might actually, there might be a conservative judge there that will say,
21:36
yeah, this is crap, you're not doing it.
21:38
It names the New York Attorney General Letitia James and state health officials,
21:43
not Hochul personally, as defendants, although the challenge is to the law Hochul signed.
21:50
Now, one of the things I do point out here, I want you to remember this.
21:56
The central claim of the lawsuits is the documentation, the process to allow yourself.
22:05
To commit suicide by medical assistance. And the law does not specifically say
22:11
That religious ministries Health centers have to do it yet But it could Make
22:18
them, force them To do this,
22:20
Now remember the slippery slope Here it is Abortion was something that,
22:27
Catholic run hospitals didn't have to do.
22:31
And then what did they try to do? What the Democrats tried to do?
22:34
I believe this was in California.
22:36
They actually tried to make the Catholic hospitals like our Catholic hospital in St.
22:41
John's in Los Angeles. That is a Catholic hospital. It is run by priests and nuns.
22:48
The doctors are all paid by the diocese.
22:51
Okay. It's an expensive hospital, Very nice hospital But that hospital It's
22:56
an expensive hospital Because you have to help pay For your medical treatment
23:00
But most of it's community based.
23:03
That hospital was going to be forced by California to provide abortions,
23:07
even though the law initially said, well, you don't have to provide abortions,
23:13
but the law says that they can eventually force you if they want to.
23:18
And that's a huge problem for the Catholic diocese.
23:22
So the kicker, the thing, what the nuns are saying is, and New York,
23:27
I think, had the same law with abortion.
23:29
What the nuns are basically saying is, we're not doing this.
23:32
We're suing you before you can actually force us to do this.
23:36
Suicide is a mortal sin in the Catholic faith.
23:40
I think in most Christianity, I know there are some versions of Christianity
23:46
that are okay with it, but it is considered a mortal sin. It's murder.
23:51
So they cannot do this. This is not a thing that Catholic nuns can do.
23:56
The kicker is if any of these guys actually get state or federal help,
24:01
That state can withhold that state money And I think that's what they tried to do with abortion,
24:08
Okay, what the law does Hochul signed,
24:12
the New York's medical aid in dying on February 6th It,
24:15
permits certain mentally capable, terminally ill adult New York residents Generally
24:22
those expected to have six months or less to live
24:25
To request medication that they may self-administer to end their lives A clinician
24:31
can prescribe the medication but does not administer it.
24:35
If the intent is to prescribe medication to someone that you know is going to
24:43
use the medication to kill themselves, you are administering it.
24:49
You are directly responsible for that.
24:54
I also want to be careful here. Notice the words. It permits certain mentally
24:58
capable, terminally ill adults in New York residents to be able to get the drugs
25:06
they need to kill themselves.
25:07
Canada had the same law.
25:10
And then I guarantee you, if we actually read the law, there's somewhere in
25:14
there that says this law can be expanded without voter approval.
25:18
That is wording that is always used in these documents.
25:23
I guarantee you there's something in there Because in Canada,
25:26
that's exactly what the MAID Act had They suddenly expanded it to not people
25:32
who were ill Terminally ill They expanded it to people who had chronic pain,
25:38
They expanded it to people who had depression.
25:44
Mental health problems Anybody who would have any long-term pre-existing conditions,
25:52
now is eligible for the MAID program in Canada. I got news here.
25:56
It's going to be the same thing here.
25:58
New York, it's going to be the same thing in frickin' Illinois,
26:01
Washington, Oregon, California, Massachusetts, Virginia.
26:08
All the same criminals out there. It's going to be the same states that are
26:12
all going to do the same thing.
26:15
Hochul's position is that participation
26:17
is voluntary and that religious facilities can opt out for now.
26:25
And I guarantee you there is that clause in that bill that says it can be expanded.
26:33
So why are the nuns objecting? Well, besides the fact that, I don't know,
26:39
medically assisted suicide is immoral and shows a real problem with our culture,
26:46
that suicide, killing ourselves is okay, is a real sickness that we need to
26:52
overcome, that seems like it's kind of an important reason to object to this.
26:58
But let's listen to what Danette said.
27:00
The Catholic plaintiffs do not contend that they would have to directly prescribe
27:06
or administer the drugs.
27:07
Rather, they argue that the statute and related patient information requirements
27:11
may compel them to do things they consider consider participation,
27:16
such as, here we go, counseling patients about assisted suicide. Yep, yep.
27:22
That's exactly what California did with abortion policies.
27:26
Discussing eligibility or access to life-ending medication.
27:30
Making referrals or transfers to providers who participate.
27:34
Adopting policies or record keeping that supports the patient's pursuit of the procedure.
27:40
Permitting staff to assist patients in navigating the process within their facilities.
27:45
In other words, you've got a mole.
27:47
You've got someone in there that really thinks that you should be able to kill
27:50
yourself, and then that person starts recommending that all the old Catholics go kill themselves.
27:56
They're absolutely correct, by the way, everything they said.
27:59
They say those duties conflict with the Catholic teaching, which regards euthanasia
28:04
and physician-assisted suicide as morally impermissible.
28:10
It's a mortal sin. It's like.
28:15
If I murdered my next-door neighbor, it's considered the same thing.
28:19
Killing myself and killing my next-door neighbor is considered the same thing.
28:23
I have no right to kill myself Any more than I have a right to kill my neighbor,
28:27
Their legal theories include the First Amendment's free exercise clause,
28:31
the Federal Health Care Conscience protections, and the Federal Health Care
28:36
Conscience protections.
28:38
So I like that. The Health Care Conscience, that's the oath the doctors take. Do no harm.
28:45
I personally think that's one of the reasons why any doctor that does the MAID
28:49
program, Dr. Kevorkian was an example. I don't know if you remember Dr. Kevorkian.
28:54
He's the first doctor that actually promoted assisted suicide.
28:59
This is way back. I think it was in the 80s. This was way back.
29:02
And he was actually taken to court and criminally charged.
29:07
And I'm not sure if they ever took, maybe I have to look that up.
29:09
I'm not sure if they ever took his license away because he violated his oath to do no harm.
29:15
But yeah, this is a great argument because the First Amendment's free exercise
29:21
clause, Well, the state can just argue, we're not stopping you.
29:24
You don't have to participate.
29:28
But the other thing is the federal health care conscience protections,
29:32
that's kind of harder to argue because
29:34
the doctor is not supposed to kill patients. That's part of his job.
29:37
OK, I hope you guys have a great day. We'll talk to you tomorrow.
29:42
God bless. This is Gene. And you've listened to Dumbass is Talking Politics.
