  Hey, this is Gene. Welcome back to Dumbass is Talking Politics.
• 0:04
  This is going to be a short podcast.
• 0:06
  Nothing really special here, but I already did one this morning.
• 0:10
  As you all know, Christy Noem is out as DHS secretary.
• 0:16
  Now, I'm trying to figure out, I know they have chosen, I think is something
• 0:22
  Mullins, a senator from Oklahoma, has become the new DHS secretary.
• 0:30
  And that's great. That's great.
• 0:34
  Now I would tell Donald Trump, do Pam Bondi.
• 0:38
  Time to get rid of Pam Bondi. She's the next one. I have specific reasons. We'll go over.
• 0:44
  And her being ineffective, believe
• 0:46
  it or not, was kind of the least of my reasons that she needed to go.
• 0:54
  And I wish Donald Trump had done this about six months ago because she was always
• 0:59
  showing to be kind of a pain. And Pam Bondi is no better.
• 1:03
  So let's go over why Kristi Noem and likewise Pam Bondi should go.
• 1:12
  First off, she's extremely performative.
• 1:15
  She is, anytime she loves the television, she loves the television camera, she loves being on TV.
• 1:23
  And you always see her wearing the khaki pants, the military gear.
• 1:30
  You see her wearing the armor, body armor with ice written on it or DHS written on it.
• 1:37
  You see her with a gun. and you always see
• 1:40
  her with the beautiful makeup and the hair is feathered
• 1:43
  to 80s perfection and you think to yourself my god this gal is acting like crazy
• 1:50
  not to mention she acts like a hard ass now what do i mean by that you hear
• 1:56
  her talk tough i hear her on her commercials talking tough.
• 2:02
  And you're thinking to yourself, lady, you're like a 90-pound woman. You're not tough.
• 2:07
  The real agents are out there doing their jobs.
• 2:11
  You're pushing them to be extremely aggressive, which I say extremely aggressive.
• 2:18
  Maybe that's not quite the word, but you're pushing them.
• 2:22
  You're saying, you're bloviating. That's what I want to say.
• 2:26
  And it makes ICE look more aggressive than they actually are.
• 2:30
  All they're doing is doing their job Okay, we're going to go arrest the child
• 2:34
  molester today Let's get a couple agents Let's get four agents into a couple
• 2:38
  of cars And let's go And then you've got Kirstie Noem sitting back And like
• 2:45
  It's the charge of the light brigade Or something,
• 2:48
  And this is a real turn off for people.
• 2:51
  It's why DHS and ICE Are so unpopular right now They are unpopular Even though
• 2:58
  ICE is doing a wonderful job The agents are doing a wonderful job under very
• 3:03
  difficult circumstances.
• 3:05
  They got to deal with these nincompoops that are sitting back and trying to interfere with them.
• 3:13
  And meanwhile, people are looking at the video and saying they're really aggressive.
• 3:17
  And then you've got people like me who are saying, no, ICE is not really aggressive.
• 3:21
  This is just what they're doing.
• 3:23
  And then you've got Kristi Noem going on Fox News.
• 3:27
  Going on television to press conferences, making commercials,
• 3:33
  saying how hard ass ICE is going to be, which is exactly what people like me are saying.
• 3:40
  No, ICE is just doing their job. but they're actually not that bad.
• 3:43
  It doesn't look that. I live in San Diego. We have a huge illegal alien problem in San Diego.
• 3:50
  And I've seen ICE several times. And they don't like, yeah, they're masked and
• 3:55
  everything, but they don't look like they're out there to shoot people.
• 3:59
  They just look like, okay, we're looking for someone to arrest.
• 4:02
  Kind of like the Oceanside Police Department or the San Diego Sheriff Department
• 4:06
  look like when they are looking for someone to arrest.
• 4:09
  So she bloviates a lot and
• 4:12
  she's one of the reasons that I kept telling
• 4:16
  kept saying on my podcast that one
• 4:19
  of the things I would like to see is Donald Trump tell these people I do not
• 4:24
  want you on the damn television I don't want you taking interviews I don't want
• 4:30
  you doing commercials this is what's great about this mullin from mullin from
• 4:35
  Oklahoma who's a senator I'm not thrilled about that,
• 4:38
  but I understand why they took a senator from Oklahoma.
• 4:41
  They're going to replace him with another Republican, so it's okay.
• 4:46
  But this guy was asked, how do you feel about being? And he was just like,
• 4:51
  yeah, it's great. I'm happy. And he walked away.
• 4:54
  This guy doesn't want to be on television. He doesn't want to be interviewed.
• 4:58
  Tom Homan, another example.
• 5:01
  Tom Homan is fantastic for, Tom Homan is fantastic. Fantastic.
• 5:08
  Noem is out, is that Kristi Noem, quite honestly, was over her skis in this job.
• 5:16
  I don't think she was qualified for this position.
• 5:19
  She was the governor of South Dakota. She never really knew how to deal with this.
• 5:24
  Trump likes Kristi Noem, and that's one of the reasons that Kristi Noem is actually
• 5:30
  just being moved to another position.
• 5:32
  She's not out of the administration. She's just being moved to another position.
• 5:38
  And that's why I think Pam Bondi should be next.
• 5:42
  I think Pam Bondi is way over her skis in this position.
• 5:47
  She was the attorney general for Florida, and she did a great job.
• 5:51
  But she's also one of those gals who is performative.
• 5:56
  What she did with the Epstein files, where she said, yes, I've got them all
• 6:00
  on my desk. I'm releasing them tomorrow.
• 6:02
  And then she didn't release anything.
• 6:06
  Made the Trump administration look really bad and gave Democrats fodder that
• 6:14
  they had been using since she did that.
• 6:16
  That, oh, now the Trump administration knows that Donald Trump is in.
• 6:20
  Everything has to do with the Epstein files.
• 6:23
  And that was all because of Pam Bondi.
• 6:26
  Not to mention, I've seen her in a few hearings in front of Congress.
• 6:30
  And I mean, I understand you want to be, what is it, the tough,
• 6:34
  broad image that you're trying to convey, that she's trying to convey,
• 6:39
  but it's not necessary. It looks performative.
• 6:42
  It looks like you were sitting and you've got a list on a piece of paper in
• 6:48
  front of you of all the comebacks you're going to make.
• 6:51
  You're just waiting for the right senator or congressman
• 6:54
  to ask the question so you can boom back with that
• 6:57
  preordained quote that you're going to release she doesn't look tough she doesn't
• 7:04
  look like she doesn't look authentic and this is the problem no that's i think
• 7:09
  the big thing with gnome and with bondi they don't look authentic they look performative.
• 7:17
  We don't need any more of that. We don't need any of that crap in the Republican
• 7:20
  Party. The Democrat Party has enough of that.
• 7:23
  It's just time to just send them away. Let them go.
• 7:28
  Fire Pam Bondi. Matter of fact, Fox News, I'm watching Fox News right now.
• 7:32
  He's got some soccer team.
• 7:35
  The Miami, Inter-Miami SCF. I don't know who those are.
• 7:41
  But he's got some sort of soccer team.
• 7:44
  And Fox News is focusing on Bondi. Because I have a feeling Bondi is next and
• 7:51
  she is going to be released. We'll have to see.
• 7:56
  Okay, I just thought I would bring this up because I heard this.
• 8:00
  I'm not going to be on the podcast tomorrow. I thought maybe I should talk a
• 8:03
  little bit about it because this is kind of big news.
• 8:06
  You might notice that there's no music playing. And the reason there's no music
• 8:11
  is it's simply that this is a live podcast happening right now outside while
• 8:19
  I'm watching television and recording from my phone.
• 8:23
  So I hope it works out. I hope you guys have a great weekend.
• 8:26
  God bless you all. This is Gene. And you've listened to Dumb Ass's Talking Politics.
