8-3: No Vacation For You! Time To Force These RINO's To Pass The SAVE Act · Wicked Radio with Bill Adams

0:03
Speaker 1: No vacation for you, well, for you absolutely probably maybe
0:07
Speaker 1: on vacation right now, finishing things up for the summer,
0:10
Speaker 1: getting kids ready for school, getting back into the fall season. Whatever.
0:12
Speaker 1: You know, who doesn't need vacation, who should not get vacation,
0:15
Speaker 1: who doesn't deserve it? You're elected representatives. That's not all
0:18
Speaker 1: of them. There's a contingent of about I think they
0:21
Speaker 1: have like fourteen, it's just under twenty signed on to
0:24
Speaker 1: stay through summer recess to make sure that Save America
0:28
Speaker 1: Act is passed. Why is this even an issue? Why
0:32
Speaker 1: do they have to put together a contingent of Republican
0:35
Speaker 1: senators who are committed to actually doing their job. This
0:38
Speaker 1: is how insanely stupid this entire thing is. But who's
0:41
Speaker 1: not who's not signed on to this? Who are the
0:45
Speaker 1: four exactly who refuse to vote for the Save America
0:48
Speaker 1: Act too, as we all know, secure elections. Oh, we'll
0:50
Speaker 1: go through this, but here's the bottom line in the takeaway,
0:53
Speaker 1: it's up to all of us to pressure all of
0:55
Speaker 1: these clowns to make sure this is past. Because here's
0:58
Speaker 1: the thing, and keep this in mind. Let's say, by
1:00
Speaker 1: some miracle, they come back from this summer vacation if
1:03
Speaker 1: they do decide to go and they do somehow pass
1:06
Speaker 1: a form of the Save America Act, do you think
1:08
Speaker 1: all these states and counties and districts have the time
1:13
Speaker 1: to actually institute what's going to be needed to secure
1:16
Speaker 1: the midterm elections. Nope, And that may be the long game.
1:20
Speaker 1: It's infuriating, but this is how we get things done anyway.
1:23
Speaker 1: Thanks for finding me. I appreciate you. Wicked Radio live
1:25
Speaker 1: stream and replay x and YouTube and Facebook audio podcast.
1:29
Speaker 1: Complete show always posted right after the live stream. This,
1:32
Speaker 1: of course, is a big topic of conversation, and it's
1:35
Speaker 1: more I think it's more relatable now, and that's important
1:38
Speaker 1: to the common man and woman, you and me and
1:40
Speaker 1: everybody else because there are people like this always not
1:44
Speaker 1: the most eloquent guy in the world, but Florida Senator
1:46
Speaker 1: Rick Scott has been hammering this home in a pretty
1:49
Speaker 1: common sense way. Just on the weekend talk shows yesterday.
1:54
Speaker 1: This is what he said, because this fight goes on
1:55
Speaker 1: little long, but you gotta here.
1:56
Speaker 2: Well, we ought to be voting on it every week.
2:00
Speaker 2: If we can't get the whole thing passed, vote on
2:01
Speaker 2: the hearts of it. And I believe we ought to
2:03
Speaker 2: force people to talk. That's how the philibuster are supposed
2:06
Speaker 2: to work. And then when people are done talking, you vote.
2:08
Speaker 2: It only takes fifty votes.
2:10
Speaker 1: But that's not where we are.
2:12
Speaker 2: What we can do this week is we're going to
2:14
Speaker 2: have hopefully a reconciliation vote this week, which we'll get
2:17
Speaker 2: as much in the Save America Act in this reconciliation
2:20
Speaker 2: vote which only takes Republican votes, and get that started
2:23
Speaker 2: this week. It won't be finished this week. Ron Johnson,
2:26
Speaker 2: the Chair of the Budget Committee, and hopefully that's what
2:29
Speaker 2: we'll be doing all day Wednesday and all night Wednesday
2:31
Speaker 2: night to get everything we can in the Save of
2:33
Speaker 2: America at passed inside reconciliation and then work with the
2:36
Speaker 2: White House to see what else.
2:37
Speaker 1: They can do.
2:39
Speaker 2: From an a Registry standpoint.
2:40
Speaker 1: You're working two and a half days this week before
2:42
Speaker 1: summer vacation, and they keep calling it it's the senatorial
2:45
Speaker 1: and congressional recess. No, it's not. You're going on vacation.
2:48
Speaker 1: Why is it so important to them? Because this is
2:50
Speaker 1: where they now. The line they're giving us is because
2:53
Speaker 1: we before the midterms, we need to reconnect with our
2:56
Speaker 1: voters and hear their concerns about what's going on with
2:59
Speaker 1: the country, and no it's not. They go home to fundraise.
3:03
Speaker 1: This is the cycle that frustrates all of us so much.
3:06
Speaker 1: As soon as these people are elected, most of them,
3:09
Speaker 1: they get elected, they start campaigning immediately right away. That's
3:12
Speaker 1: the fundraising game. And then they go home. This is
3:14
Speaker 1: why these recesses and vacations are so important. They go
3:16
Speaker 1: home and they start fundraising again and fundraising and fundraising,
3:19
Speaker 1: and they do not want to miss that, despite the
3:21
Speaker 1: fact that possibly they won't get elected again unless they
3:25
Speaker 1: pass this Save America Act. You see how insane this is. Okay, Now,
3:29
Speaker 1: that's Rick Scott. Good for him. He's one of those
3:32
Speaker 1: that's putting up this coalition of Republican senators to stay
3:37
Speaker 1: in town, get their job done, do everything you can
3:40
Speaker 1: to get this thing passed. And it's an uphill battle
3:43
Speaker 1: because there's even some of your favorite names possibly that
3:45
Speaker 1: are out there. They also have not committed to staying
3:48
Speaker 1: in town and getting this thing done. Now, this is
3:51
Speaker 1: from a couple of weeks ago. Here's Ted Cruz talking
3:53
Speaker 1: about the very same thing, and he's right about this.
3:54
Speaker 3: We need to make the Democrats do that until they
3:57
Speaker 3: can talk no longer and then wish should pass the
4:00
Speaker 3: same America Act. Absolutely, we should stay here through August.
4:04
Speaker 3: We should keep going until we get it done. And look,
4:08
Speaker 3: it's a real press. Do we get fifty Republicans to
4:12
Speaker 3: stand together. I am fighting tooth and nail to make
4:14
Speaker 3: that happen. I'm grateful for the president fighting. We need
4:17
Speaker 3: to get this done.
4:18
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, you do. You do need to get that done.
4:21
Speaker 1: Ted Cruz is one of them. Obviously, what he was
4:23
Speaker 1: talking about there was the talking filibuster. So they have
4:26
Speaker 1: a fake filibuster now, which happens. This is why you
4:28
Speaker 1: hear this term all the time now where you can
4:30
Speaker 1: just say, I philibuster. I was going to talk for
4:33
Speaker 1: hours on end. But then they don't actually have to
4:34
Speaker 1: do it, so they don't even have to do that,
4:37
Speaker 1: just talking for a living. They won't even commit to that.
4:39
Speaker 1: At least get him to do that, or, as the
4:42
Speaker 1: President has said, just nuke the filibuster, because guess what,
4:46
Speaker 1: when the Democrats get elected again, it's exactly what they're
4:48
Speaker 1: going to do. They're just gonna nuke it up so
4:50
Speaker 1: you can if they have the majority in the Senate,
4:52
Speaker 1: they'll pass whatever they want. To pass, but we have
4:54
Speaker 1: whimpy Republicans who won't do that. Why why is it?
4:58
Speaker 1: We have to start asking the question why forget about
5:01
Speaker 1: the Democrats? And this is the most amazing thing in
5:04
Speaker 1: a weird turn of events, which is what always happens
5:07
Speaker 1: in that swamp of Washington, DC, and then we all
5:09
Speaker 1: have to deal with what rolls downhill from there. The
5:12
Speaker 1: Democrats are being more honest than the Republicans are on
5:15
Speaker 1: the whole. Isn't that amazing? You know what they're gonna do.
5:18
Speaker 1: Not one of them is going to vote to secure
5:20
Speaker 1: our elections, even though it's got an approval rate of
5:23
Speaker 1: over eighty five percent among all political parties in the country.
5:27
Speaker 1: Everybody in the country sees this for what it is
5:30
Speaker 1: absolutely necessary, and they're all going to vote against it.
5:33
Speaker 1: Every single person in the Senate with a D next
5:36
Speaker 1: to their name is going to vote against the Save
5:38
Speaker 1: America Act. But they're not the only ones. What would
5:40
Speaker 1: actually cause for made I mean, we'll talk about John Thune,
5:45
Speaker 1: the Senate majority leader useless here in just a second.
5:48
Speaker 1: But the four other Senators who are Republicans in name
5:51
Speaker 1: only who are voting against this, why who are they
5:54
Speaker 1: and why Tom tillis thomb as he spells his name.
6:00
Speaker 1: This is totally political because Trump went against them in
6:02
Speaker 1: the Texas race and he votes against so just of
6:04
Speaker 1: pure actual spite, he's willing to vote against will not
6:08
Speaker 1: support the Save America Act out of spite. That's right.
6:11
Speaker 1: That's where we are on that great guy. Huh, Mitch McConnell,
6:14
Speaker 1: why isn't he voting for it? Well, because he's brain
6:17
Speaker 1: dead and his aides are completely owned by the Chinese.
6:21
Speaker 1: There's nor answer there. Lisa Murkowski from Alaska, I have
6:26
Speaker 1: absolutely no idea why she wouldn't vote for the Save
6:28
Speaker 1: America Act. Susan Collins from Maine. There's another one voting
6:31
Speaker 1: against it. I think she just wants to play nice
6:34
Speaker 1: and she doesn't want people angry at her. I think
6:36
Speaker 1: I don't know. This is how preposterous this entire situation is.
6:41
Speaker 1: It's absolutely ridiculous. So get mad at them all you want,
6:44
Speaker 1: and you don't have to be in their district to
6:46
Speaker 1: reach out to them, Email them, call the Senatorial office.
6:50
Speaker 1: All of that's to put the pressure on them. Now
6:52
Speaker 1: they're us senators, you can call them. They represent you
6:54
Speaker 1: and me and everybody else, and there's only one hundred
6:56
Speaker 1: of them. But here's who you should be mad at.
6:58
Speaker 1: And this is where you're gonna get mad at me.
7:00
Speaker 1: Why hasn't President Trump, the guy who knows how to
7:03
Speaker 1: put more personal pressure on anybody in the country, possibly
7:07
Speaker 1: the world. Why isn't he calling them out by name,
7:10
Speaker 1: like you and me and everybody else?
7:11
Speaker 4: Is?
7:12
Speaker 1: I don't know, and I don't know what the answer is.
7:14
Speaker 1: This is on Air Force one over the weekend. Audio
7:17
Speaker 1: is kind of hard to hear, but I'll kind of
7:18
Speaker 1: just transcribe for you after the fact. Where he's talking
7:21
Speaker 1: about those four that you and I just mentioned there
7:24
Speaker 1: we're voting against securing our elections. Why and why isn't
7:28
Speaker 1: he doing more to absolutely shame them.
7:30
Speaker 3: Absolutely Republicans that I will not comment on.
7:34
Speaker 1: Why a few of them, probably four four that we
7:38
Speaker 1: probably won't get the vote.
7:39
Speaker 3: I'd like to comment on them, but I have too
7:42
Speaker 3: much sense to do it.
7:44
Speaker 1: See, there's the problem. I think, Who am I to
7:47
Speaker 1: doubt President Trump? Because he's the best negotiator possibly we've
7:50
Speaker 1: ever seen in that office, that's for sure. Why won't
7:52
Speaker 1: you comment on it? Why won't nobody is better than
7:55
Speaker 1: the personal insult and Why does he do that? And
7:56
Speaker 1: we've all said, even people that voted for Trump, Oh,
7:59
Speaker 1: I just I wish you wouldn't name calls so much.
8:02
Speaker 1: All right, that's fair. Here's a case we we had
8:05
Speaker 1: got a name call. Why aren't that? Why isn't he
8:08
Speaker 1: hauling John Thune, this Senate majority leader, into his office
8:12
Speaker 1: and then having that little you know, outside the Oval
8:15
Speaker 1: Office press conference in the chairs when they bring the
8:17
Speaker 1: press in. Why isn't he publicly embarrassing him like he
8:21
Speaker 1: has with all the other politicians that have gone against him,
8:23
Speaker 1: even though he's a Republican or these other four Collins
8:25
Speaker 1: and Kowski, McConnell. Well, McConnell's brain dead and in the hospital,
8:29
Speaker 1: so he can't embarrass him personally, but you can do
8:31
Speaker 1: it by name. Thom Tillis. Why not? Why not embarrass them?
8:35
Speaker 1: He's the best at that. Throw the personal insults out there,
8:38
Speaker 1: brate them, until haul them into the Oval office every
8:41
Speaker 1: single day until this is done. What the hell is
8:45
Speaker 1: the problem with this? Why he's not doing that? I
8:47
Speaker 1: have no idea. Probably to get other legislation passed, I
8:51
Speaker 1: don't know. And he's still got to make friends because
8:53
Speaker 1: they have a razor thin majority in the Senate as
8:55
Speaker 1: we know, or we wouldn't be going through this. And
8:58
Speaker 1: he's got this guy, this Senate Majority leader, this is
9:00
Speaker 1: the guy who's supposed to be whipping all these people
9:02
Speaker 1: up into you know, following the party line, right following
9:05
Speaker 1: the Trump agenda. He may be the biggest enemy of all. Again,
9:10
Speaker 1: in a weird way, the Democrats are being way more
9:12
Speaker 1: honest than these Republicans are, way more because you know
9:15
Speaker 1: where they're coming from. You you know how they're gonna vote.
9:18
Speaker 1: It's going to be a notice secure our elections. And
9:20
Speaker 1: you know why. But this guy, this guy who's the
9:24
Speaker 1: Senate Majority leader, he just keeps running his mouth and
9:28
Speaker 1: giving excuse after excuse. A Senate leader, John Thune, are
9:33
Speaker 1: you gonna are you gonna cancel that recess or are
9:35
Speaker 1: you gonna go out to play in your home state,
9:37
Speaker 1: or are you gonna get your job done? Here's what
9:38
Speaker 1: he said.
9:39
Speaker 5: But I don't think, you know, having a Congress Senate
9:43
Speaker 5: sitting around here for the month of August in quorum
9:46
Speaker 5: calls or having to vote on Democratic amendments is probably
9:49
Speaker 5: a good use of anybody's signed. So we will see
9:52
Speaker 5: and see where they come.
9:54
Speaker 1: Well, I don't think that was low again in the audio. Sorry,
9:57
Speaker 1: but what he said was, I don't think sitting around
9:58
Speaker 1: here another no week, or are sitting up here in Washington, DC?
10:02
Speaker 1: Is going to help it all? Why not? That's when
10:04
Speaker 1: you have to get them together. That's your job, John,
10:07
Speaker 1: is to get them together and vote this thing, which
10:09
Speaker 1: obviously the entire country wants. And you don't get it,
10:13
Speaker 1: or you do get that and you won't do anything
10:15
Speaker 1: about it, which is worse, which makes you wonder why why.
10:18
Speaker 1: It's just it's just not a cluelessness, it's just not
10:20
Speaker 1: an awareness. Maybe you think you wouldn't be in office,
10:24
Speaker 1: you fellow Republicans unless unless I cheated for you too.
10:28
Speaker 1: Because let's be big boys and girls about this. The
10:32
Speaker 1: high jinks going on with our with our election system
10:34
Speaker 1: isn't just happening on the Democrat side. It's not most
10:37
Speaker 1: of it. I'll grant you that it's happening with them too.
10:40
Speaker 1: Let's be honest. Maybe they're hiding something as well, but
10:43
Speaker 1: if not, it's just going to go down to the
10:45
Speaker 1: states if they don't get this done and I don't
10:47
Speaker 1: get it. The most infuriating thing, let me tell you,
10:50
Speaker 1: would be if they pass this Save America Act and
10:52
Speaker 1: there's not enough time before the midterms to do anything
10:54
Speaker 1: about it. That would be the worst thing of all
10:56
Speaker 1: that really really would because it would be infuria because
10:59
Speaker 1: then no one would believe in it, that it actually worked.
11:02
Speaker 1: And then what would happen. It would go down to
11:03
Speaker 1: the states, and God help you if you're in a
11:05
Speaker 1: state that won't do anything about it, because it'll just
11:07
Speaker 1: get worse, or you could luck out. By the grace
11:10
Speaker 1: of God. I lucked out and I live in this
11:12
Speaker 1: state with this guy. This is what Ron Dessant has
11:15
Speaker 1: said about the Save America Act. He didn't wait. Maybe
11:19
Speaker 1: he saw what was coming, took it upon himself and
11:22
Speaker 1: the Florida legislature in Tallahassee to pass a state version
11:26
Speaker 1: of the Save America Act, and other red states are
11:29
Speaker 1: working on that too. It can be done. The states
11:32
Speaker 1: can do this as well as well as the federal government.
11:34
Speaker 1: It's not going to hurt anything. Here's what he said things.
11:36
Speaker 4: I think one that left realizes that they can't win
11:40
Speaker 4: in America unless they import people from around the world
11:45
Speaker 4: who will agree with their agenda. And part of that
11:48
Speaker 4: is having an open border, having illegal immigration and then
11:51
Speaker 4: amnestying them and having them vote. And actually in some
11:54
Speaker 4: of the blue states they're letting the foreigners vote, which
11:57
Speaker 4: is why you need to pass the Save America Act.
11:59
Speaker 4: We've done that in Florida incidentally. So this is part
12:02
Speaker 4: of a larger political project.
12:04
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's part of a larger political process, all right, Ron,
12:07
Speaker 1: But you did it good for you in the state
12:09
Speaker 1: of Florida. And I don't know if you're completely aware
12:11
Speaker 1: of this, or possibly you forgot, but if you start
12:14
Speaker 1: to lose hope that any of this stuff can be
12:16
Speaker 1: fixed and so easy to fall into that too. My
12:18
Speaker 1: vote doesn't matter anyway. It's all corrupt, and it's all
12:21
Speaker 1: a lot of it is. You're right about that part
12:23
Speaker 1: of it. But it can be turned around. I saw
12:25
Speaker 1: this personally actually down here. I don't want to delve
12:30
Speaker 1: into history too much, but in the two thousand election,
12:32
Speaker 1: you know, the Al Gore w election which came down
12:36
Speaker 1: to Florida and the hanging chads and all this other stuff,
12:38
Speaker 1: I cannot even describe how screwed up the election system
12:43
Speaker 1: was in Florida for federal elections and state and local
12:46
Speaker 1: I'm sure too, But they turned it around in not
12:49
Speaker 1: that long a time. It actually can be done. So
12:52
Speaker 1: if you're thinking that this save America, well, what does
12:54
Speaker 1: it matter if they go on vacation or not. It's
12:57
Speaker 1: not going to fix the elections anyway. No, it actually
13:01
Speaker 1: can work. You actually can secure your elections. I've seen
13:03
Speaker 1: it personally down here. A larger version of that could
13:06
Speaker 1: be could be beneficial for our entire country. Will they
13:10
Speaker 1: do it? First thing we got to do is get
13:11
Speaker 1: these useless, absolutely lazy and i'll say corrupt Republican senators
13:17
Speaker 1: off their asses and cancel their vacation plans to get
13:19
Speaker 1: this done. That's the first thing. And if you think
13:22
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter to you, it does. Call these four
13:26
Speaker 1: all the other ones, get hurt, get loud, make sure
13:28
Speaker 1: that they make sure that they get off their asses,
13:31
Speaker 1: and they actually get this thing done because it's vitally important.
13:34
Speaker 1: And that's the most ironic thing of all is they
13:37
Speaker 1: all know it. Eighty five percent of the country poll
13:39
Speaker 1: after poll, study after study, the entire country is in
13:43
Speaker 1: favor of this thing, and yet they still won't do it.
13:46
Speaker 1: And you still have somebody like John Thune going, well,
13:49
Speaker 1: I don't see what good it's going to do for
13:50
Speaker 1: us to sit up here in Washington, DC. What good
13:53
Speaker 1: it's going to do? Do your freaking job, That's what
13:56
Speaker 1: good it's going to do? All right? Worked up in
14:00
Speaker 1: a Monday, how dare you? We'll see what happens with it.
14:04
Speaker 1: Two and a half days of work this week. Let's
14:05
Speaker 1: see if they get something done. I don't know, I
14:07
Speaker 1: haven't my doubts, and I'll say it one more time
14:11
Speaker 1: before we get out of here. Trump needs to call
14:13
Speaker 1: these people out by name and stop. I never thought
14:15
Speaker 1: I'd be sitting here and saying Trump needs to stop
14:17
Speaker 1: playing so nice, and I hope he does. Anyway, let's
14:23
Speaker 1: talk about that. More on that tomorrow and more whatever
14:25
Speaker 1: pops up in the news, we'll be talking about it.
14:27
Speaker 1: Wicked radio live stream than the replay and the audio
14:29
Speaker 1: podcast x YouTube, Facebook, wherever you let you get your
14:32
Speaker 1: audio podcasts as well. Post it right after the live stream.
14:35
Speaker 1: Eanks for hanging out with me and make it a wicked,
14:36
Speaker 1: awesome Monday. Get those Rhino senators off their asses to
14:40
Speaker 1: do their jobs. I'll talk to you tomorrow.
