Transcript
- 0:00[SPEAKER_01]: The liberal globalist order is on its brink and awakening a new conservative age.
- 0:06[SPEAKER_01]: Dr. Steve Turley joined me every day as we discover answers to today's toughest challenges and explore the re-bondalization of conservative civilization.
- 0:18[SPEAKER_01]: This is Turley Talks.
- 0:20[SPEAKER_01]: Walls are closing in on the Democrats in every one's feeling at CNN, MSNBC, and most especially the Democrat party itself.
- 0:31[SPEAKER_01]: Another domino has fallen.
- 0:33[SPEAKER_01]: First, it was the stunning betrayal that has Democrat leadership scrambling behind closed doors, rewriting talking points, and searching for exit strategies.
- 0:43[SPEAKER_01]: But then,
- 0:44[SPEAKER_01]: What just happened literally hours ago, just exposed the entire foundation of the Democrats strategy as a house of cards imploding in real time.
- 0:56[SPEAKER_01]: And everyone's admitting it.
- 0:58[SPEAKER_01]: Democrats, the legacy media, it's all coming crashing down along with the inevitable demise of the Democrat party itself.
- 1:08[SPEAKER_01]: Hey gang, it's me, Dr. Steve, your Patre professor enjoying yet another glorious day in the Golden Age that you made possible back on November the Fists, if you want to front or seat on how you are changing the world of ways you never even imagine.
- 1:23[SPEAKER_01]: Make sure to smack that bell and subscribe button.
- 1:26[SPEAKER_01]: Yesterday, we reported on a massive scandalous betrayal to Democrat Party by none other than the American Federation of Government employees.
- 1:36[SPEAKER_01]: They represent over 800,000 federal workers.
- 1:40[SPEAKER_01]: They are rabid partisan Democrats.
- 1:42[SPEAKER_01]: They openly endorse both Biden and Kackles Kamala.
- 1:46[SPEAKER_01]: But not this time.
- 1:48[SPEAKER_01]: They blindsided the Democrats by coming out and publicly citing with Trump and the Republicans.
- 1:55[SPEAKER_01]: AFG, President, Everett Kelly, published a statement and imploring Democrats to give in.
- 2:02[SPEAKER_01]: and pass a clean continuing resolution and end this shutdown immediately.
- 2:08[SPEAKER_01]: No half measures, no gamesmanship, pass the very clean CR that you thus far refuse to vote for and re-open this government now.
- 2:20[SPEAKER_01]: It was beyond anything the Democrats could have predicted when the most loyal constituencies in the American left publicly demanding.
- 2:29[SPEAKER_01]: that Schumer and Jeffrey surrender immediately.
- 2:33[SPEAKER_01]: It was beyond astonishing.
- 2:34[SPEAKER_01]: Well, gang, as of today, yet another domino has fallen.
- 2:42[SPEAKER_01]: The American Bankers Association representing 95% of U.S. banks has issued a public statement with nearly identical language,
- 2:54[SPEAKER_01]: demanding that the Democrats pass a clean continuing resolution and reopen the government as of today.
- 3:03[SPEAKER_01]: And again, the dominoes just continue to fall.
- 3:06[SPEAKER_01]: America's credit unions followed suit, then came the independent community bankers of America warning that the ongoing government shutdown threatens to harm economic growth.
- 3:18[SPEAKER_01]: in Main Street economies and they are like all the others calling for the immediate passage of the very clean sea are that the Democrats have been voting against.
- 3:29[SPEAKER_01]: Now you'll notice the pattern here.
- 3:31[SPEAKER_01]: These aren't fringe groups.
- 3:33[SPEAKER_01]: These aren't radically partisan extremist organisms.
- 3:36[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I mean obviously the federal workers union is a Democrat front, but that said and they turned around and betrayed them to boot.
- 3:44[SPEAKER_01]: But that said the banks,
- 3:48[SPEAKER_01]: These are establishment institutions that typically try to stay out of politics, but when they do get into politics, it's very interesting from a cultural vantage point.
- 3:57[SPEAKER_01]: When they do get into politics, it's usually when they feel like the winds are blowing in a particular direction.
- 4:05[SPEAKER_01]: This is why they all went woke over the last four years.
- 4:08[SPEAKER_01]: That's where they thought the cultural winds were going to be blowing for the foreseeable future.
- 4:14[SPEAKER_01]: Obviously, they were wrong.
- 4:16[SPEAKER_01]: Obviously, they've all backtrack.
- 4:18[SPEAKER_01]: Now that nobody wants to get Bud Lighted.
- 4:21[SPEAKER_01]: So what's happening now that they've come out and entered into these culture wars?
- 4:28[SPEAKER_01]: These partisan political issues right now.
- 4:31[SPEAKER_01]: What is that suggest?
- 4:34[SPEAKER_01]: All of these financial institutions feel that the winds are blowing in one clear singular direction
- 4:46[SPEAKER_01]: They are openly recognizing that the Democrats are on the losing side of this.
- 4:52[SPEAKER_01]: They are losers, and they're not alone.
- 4:55[SPEAKER_01]: The banks are not alone.
- 4:57[SPEAKER_01]: The legacy media knew going into this as this was going to be an uphill battle for the Democrats.
- 5:03[SPEAKER_01]: They were willing to carry their water as they always do.
- 5:07[SPEAKER_01]: for the first few weeks of the shutdown in the hopes of drawing an unforested error on the part of the Republicans, it didn't happen.
- 5:15[SPEAKER_01]: And so here we are in week five in order to save phase and maintain what little credibility they still have, the legacy media is being forced to call the Democrats to heal case and point, watch this astonishing exchange on CNN between Jake
- 5:37[SPEAKER_03]: Sure, the Democratic senators from New Mexico, your home state vote to open the government so that these snap funds are not at risk.
- 5:46[SPEAKER_00]: Let me be clear.
- 5:47[SPEAKER_00]: The administration is choosing to starve American children with money that they already have a property.
- 5:57[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not applauded.
- 5:58[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not applauded.
- 5:59[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not applauded.
- 6:00[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not applauded.
- 6:02[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not applauded.
- 6:03[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not applauded.
- 6:04[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not applauded.
- 6:05[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not applauded.
- 6:06[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not applauded.
- 6:08[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not applauded.
- 6:09[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not applauded.
- 6:09[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not applauded.
- 6:10[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not applauded.
- 6:10[SPEAKER_03]: I understand why they're doing it.
- 6:12[SPEAKER_03]: They're doing it because they want Medicaid funds restored.
- 6:15[SPEAKER_03]: They're doing it because they want Obamacare premiums to be extended past the end of the year.
- 6:20[SPEAKER_00]: I understand the reason I let me just be clear.
- 6:24[SPEAKER_00]: The money for contingency plans is sitting there.
- 6:27[SPEAKER_00]: That is why the states are suing the White House's withholding funds for two to three weeks worth of staff funds.
- 6:33[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
- 6:33[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, well, you may not be a big deal to you, but let me
- 6:38[SPEAKER_00]: It is a big deal today.
- 6:39[SPEAKER_00]: It is a big deal today.
- 6:40[SPEAKER_00]: It is a big deal today.
- 6:41[SPEAKER_00]: It is a big deal today.
- 6:43[SPEAKER_00]: It is a big deal today.
- 6:45[SPEAKER_00]: It is a big deal today.
- 6:46[SPEAKER_00]: It is a big deal today.
- 6:47[SPEAKER_00]: It is a big deal today.
- 6:49[SPEAKER_00]: It is a big deal today.
- 6:50[SPEAKER_00]: It is a big deal today.
- 6:51[SPEAKER_00]: It is a big deal today.
- 6:52[SPEAKER_00]: It is a big deal today.
- 6:54[SPEAKER_03]: It is a big deal today.
- 6:56[SPEAKER_03]: It is a big deal today.
- 6:57[SPEAKER_03]: It is a big deal today.
- 6:58[SPEAKER_03]: It is a big deal today.
- 6:59[SPEAKER_03]: It is a big deal today.
- 7:00[SPEAKER_00]: I am here in the House of Representatives.
- 7:03[SPEAKER_00]: It is shut down.
- 7:04[SPEAKER_00]: I am fighting to get the government reopened.
- 7:06[SPEAKER_00]: I am fighting to get funding put back into SNAP that is already existing and I am fighting for the American people.
- 7:12[SPEAKER_00]: I am here, but show me a single Republican that is here, not a single one is here, to make sure that Americans are fed on Saturday.
- 7:19[SPEAKER_00]: That is why I am here.
- 7:22[SPEAKER_01]: I have a kind of Congresswoman Melanie Stancebury from New Mexico.
- 7:24[SPEAKER_01]: Even CNN recognizes the jig is up.
- 7:28[SPEAKER_01]: You did not see interviews like that four weeks ago.
- 7:33[SPEAKER_01]: Representative, you can open this government right now.
- 7:36[SPEAKER_01]: You can open this government five minutes.
- 7:38[SPEAKER_01]: You, you, but you are refusing to do so.
- 7:44[SPEAKER_01]: You, the Democrats are using Americans pain as your leverage.
- 7:48[SPEAKER_01]: You're exploiting that fact that for so many, the dream of a comfortable golden age has been shattered.
- 7:55[SPEAKER_01]: And the numbers don't lie.
- 7:57[SPEAKER_01]: Only 58% Americans believe their hard-earned savings will last through their retirement years.
- 8:03[SPEAKER_01]: Inflation, market volatility, global economic threats they've turned retirement planning into a high-stakes game of economics survival.
- 8:12[SPEAKER_01]: But there's obviously a much better solution
- 8:18[SPEAKER_01]: Well, enter Block Trust IRA's amazing animus AI, a revolutionary crypto solution that's rewriting the rules of retirement investing.
- 8:30[SPEAKER_01]: This isn't just another investment platform.

- 10:16[SPEAKER_01]: Now, President Trump is in point of fact playing a very strategic leadership role in all of this while he himself has not communicated with Schumer Jeffery since before the shutdown began
- 10:34[SPEAKER_01]: Trump is ratcheting up the pressure on Democrats more and more every single day and on multiple
- 10:42[SPEAKER_01]: levels.
- 10:43[SPEAKER_01]: So it's not just the federal workers unions, it's not just the banks, it is just this ongoing pressure cooker that Trump has amassed against the Democrats.
- 10:53[SPEAKER_01]: So first, he's maintaining an extremely impressive unified Republican front by refusing to negotiate until Democrats agreed to reopen the government without conditions, right?
- 11:05[SPEAKER_01]: So from the very beginning, Trump predicted
- 11:08[SPEAKER_01]: that Democrat would ultimately suffer politically from the standoff.
- 11:13[SPEAKER_01]: He knew that if past is precedent, the party that is stubbornly holding out, making the demands as we just saw with the Jake Tapper interview, that is the one that always ends up getting the blame.
- 11:25[SPEAKER_01]: So Trump knew going into this that the Democrats were stepping on a right here.
- 11:31[SPEAKER_01]: They were only going to end up bludgeoning themselves and all of this.
- 11:34[SPEAKER_01]: So his leadership has secured an extremely impressive unified front among Republicans.
- 11:41[SPEAKER_01]: That's first.
- 11:42[SPEAKER_01]: Second, the Trump administration is using the shutdown as an opportunity to reshape government operations.
- 11:49[SPEAKER_01]: The administration is either paused or canceled tens of billions of dollars in federal funding with the Department of Transportation, particular pausing $18 billion for New York City infrastructure projects, claiming they violated civil rights laws through DEI based contracting.
- 12:08[SPEAKER_01]: So Trump is hitting blue states hard in canceling or pausing all of these multi-billion dollar
- 12:19[SPEAKER_01]: right we're talking billions upon billions of dollars that were supposed to be poured into these local blue economies gone wiped out because of the shutdown and in DC Trump's office management budget is slashed an additional 4,000 federal jobs.
- 12:35[SPEAKER_01]: since the shutdown began, so Trump is using this shutdown as an opportunity to further reshape government operations, and then third, Trump's White House is aggressively and very successfully framing the shutdown as entirely, completely and absolutely caused
- 12:55[SPEAKER_01]: by Democrat demands for $1.5 trillion in new spending, particularly for healthcare benefits for illegal migrants.
- 13:04[SPEAKER_01]: That is absolutely killing the Democrats politically.
- 13:08[SPEAKER_01]: No matter how much they might want to try to squirm their way out of that, no matter how much they might protest, that's not true, that's a that accusation, which is 100% true.
- 13:20[SPEAKER_01]: that accusation has hamstrung the Democrats in the very beginning of this shutdown.
- 13:26[SPEAKER_01]: They just were never able to get out of the gate precisely because everyone knows, including their shrinking supporters and their growing detractors, everyone knows that the Democrats are 100% on board with giving illegal migrants every protection and benefit on the planet.
- 13:43[SPEAKER_01]: Everyone knows that.
- 13:44[SPEAKER_01]: There's no way they screw them out of this one.
- 13:47[SPEAKER_01]: they have clearly lost the messaging wars and it's being reflected in their polling here's data analyst Harry Anton on CNN starting with Republicans.
- 13:56[SPEAKER_01]: How is the shutdown seem to have affected their political standing?
- 14:00[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, you might think you're in that the Republicans are in charge of both the House and the Senate that a government shutdown might actually hurt the Republican brand.
- 14:07[SPEAKER_02]: But in fact,
- 14:08[SPEAKER_02]: It hasn't.
- 14:09[SPEAKER_02]: If anything, it's been helped a little bit.
- 14:11[SPEAKER_02]: Take a look here, the shift in that popularity versus pre-shut down.
- 14:14[SPEAKER_02]: Among the G, when we're looking at the Republican Party overall, that ran actually up to points.
- 14:18[SPEAKER_02]: That's within the margin of error, but clearly it hasn't dropped.
- 14:21[SPEAKER_02]: Come over to this side of the screen.
- 14:22[SPEAKER_02]: Look at the net approval ratings for Republicans in Congress.
- 14:25[SPEAKER_02]: It's actually up five points since pre-shut down.
- 14:28[SPEAKER_02]: So what we're seeing here is the Republican brand in Congress has actually improved somewhat.
- 14:33[SPEAKER_02]: compared to we were pretty shut down despite the fact that Republicans control and that's the map that John through and Mike Johnson are looking at is, hey, why should we give an electorally speaking when our brand is actually improved a little bit?
- 14:45[SPEAKER_01]: And the same goes for Trump.
- 14:47[SPEAKER_01]: Trump's polls have actually gone up since the beginning of the shutdown.
- 14:51[SPEAKER_01]: Again, that was that was from CNN that was a report last week, both Trump's approval and the GOP's approval have actually increased as a result of the shutdown.
- 15:03[SPEAKER_01]: So what about the Dems?
- 15:06[SPEAKER_01]: So how do Democrats, how are they positioned right now?
- 15:09[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, so I mean, look, the Jenner congressional ballot, which traditionally Democrats have done really well on.
- 15:14[SPEAKER_02]: And if you look at this point back when Trump was present the first time around Democrats were up 11 points, look at where it is now.
- 15:19[SPEAKER_02]: Democrats are ahead, but they're actually only up three points.
- 15:22[SPEAKER_02]: This is in fact the worst position Democrats have been on, in a generic ballot at this point in the midterm when there was Republican president in the last 20 years.
- 15:29[SPEAKER_02]: And this is no different from pre shutdown.
- 15:31[SPEAKER_02]: So Republicans aren't losing on this metric either.
- 15:33[SPEAKER_02]: They become more popular and they're actually in a pretty good position for them historically when it comes to the generic congressional ballot.
- 15:38[SPEAKER_02]: This is a concerning number for Democrats who you're saying.
- 15:40[SPEAKER_02]: This is a concerning number for Democrats because it's considerably worse than they traditionally do in midterm elections when there's a Republican president.
- 15:47[SPEAKER_02]: Harry, and thank you very much.
- 15:49[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you, my friend.
- 15:50[SPEAKER_01]: So bottom line, this is the eight symmetrical standoff here.
- 15:54[SPEAKER_01]: Republicans have improved their poll numbers during this shutdown.
- 15:59[SPEAKER_01]: All the while the Democrats in the worst position they've been in 20 years.
- 16:05[SPEAKER_01]: This coming from none other than CNN.
- 16:08[SPEAKER_01]: And so the key here is that there is no political reason whatsoever for Republicans to cave.
- 16:14[SPEAKER_01]: None.
- 16:15[SPEAKER_01]: Zip-o.
- 16:16[SPEAKER_01]: Again, I've said this from the very beginning.
- 16:18[SPEAKER_01]: You can go back to all of our videos four weeks ago.
- 16:22[SPEAKER_01]: I've said from the very beginning that this is a completely asymmetrical.
- 16:27[SPEAKER_01]: shut down.
- 16:29[SPEAKER_01]: Stand off as it were.
- 16:30[SPEAKER_01]: Generally you have one side that's holding up for what it wants and you have the other side that's holding out for what it wants.
- 16:37[SPEAKER_01]: The reason there's a shutdown is because both sides, that's key, both sides are trying to maneuver to get what they want out of this.
- 16:46[SPEAKER_01]: What makes this shutdown so different is that President Trump actually gets
- 16:57[SPEAKER_01]: Trump gets all the power in the authority that he could ever dream of getting over DC as a direct result of this shutdown, and that's of course because in the event of a shutdown the constitution requires the management of government shift over to the executive branch, particularly the OMB, the Office of Management and Budget, which just so happens to be ever seen by none other than Russell Vote, the Chief Architect of Project 2025, which is a blueprint to dismantle the administrative state.
- 17:24[SPEAKER_01]: So Trump is getting absolutely everything he wants.
- 17:26[SPEAKER_01]: That's why he's smiling every day and enjoying this.
- 17:29[SPEAKER_01]: All the while the Democrats get nothing.
- 17:33[SPEAKER_01]: Not something, not a little bit, nothing.
- 17:37[SPEAKER_01]: Because they're the ones who are holding out for what they want.
- 17:41[SPEAKER_01]: So that's the asymmetry here.
- 17:43[SPEAKER_01]: The Democrats are holding out for what they want.
- 17:45[SPEAKER_01]: All the while Trump gets everything he wants in their holding out.
- 17:55[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, it's obvious, and again, more and more institutional players are seeing that federal workers unions are seeing it, banks are seeing it, the legacy of media seeing it, they're all recognizing that the walls are indeed closing in on the Democrats.
- 18:09[SPEAKER_01]: So this government shutdown is over, for all practical purposes.
- 18:13[SPEAKER_01]: In many ways, it was over before it ever started.
- 18:17[SPEAKER_01]: The Democrats thought they could leverage Americans' pain.
- 18:20[SPEAKER_01]: All they were doing was guaranteeing their own inevitable political demise.
