  Speaker 1: Hey everybody, welcome to Vince. Great to have you with
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: us on a Friday as always. The best audience anywhere.
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: We've got a hell of a show ahead for you.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: What the hell's going on in Spain? Suddenly the Moroccans
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: are invading Spain and we're just supposed to sit back
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: and watch it and be like, oh, well, I don't
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: think so. I think there's a massive warning sign in
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: this about the collapse of borders and sovereignty and the
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: fact that we need to stop it in its tracks.
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: There's a lot to get to with that subject. We'll
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: do it coming up here in just a moment. Also,
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: will we get Todd Blanche as the fully Senate-confirmed attorney general?
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: John Cornyn and Thom Tillis continue to stand in the way,
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: but the president of the United States is throwing down
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: on that subject. And we'll get some expert legal analysis
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: and nonstop hilarity from our friend Kurt Schlichter, who joins

  Speaker 1: of your daily routine. Kaboom. Yeah, remember when Spain had borders?
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: Turns out they are evaporating. We're watching as Moroccans are
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: pouring in by the tens of thousands over the course
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: of just 24 hours into a Spanish enclave known as
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: Ceuta right there at the northern tip of Morocco before
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: you cross the Strait of Gibraltar into mainland Spain. There
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: you have a Spanish territory that's being invaded by tens
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: of thousands of Moroccans in a world where there's not
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: that many Spanish people there to begin with. Well, relatively speaking.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: This is a Spanish city of 83,567 people, to be specific.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: This is according to Spanish census records from 2025. So
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: about 84,000 people. You know how many Moroccans just poured
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: in there in an invasion? 49,000 in 24 hours. That's
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: according to the BBC official estimates right now.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: 49,000 invaders.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: Pouring into a region of 84,000 Spaniards. Now, I don't
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: know how into math you are, but just to be clear,
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: that's more than half the population. Suddenly Ceuta ain't Ceuta anymore.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: It's Morocco. The hell just happened? Let me show you
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: some of these crazy images. And note, of course, that
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: these are military-aged males. Are there women and children? Yeah,
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: like occasionally. But have you seen the footage of this?
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: It's all dudes. It's all young men absolutely storming a
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: country that they don't belong to. Cut one.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: Watch.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Take a look at some of this imagery. Look, people
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: coming by water. They're walking, kind of, they're swimming around
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: a border barrier, pouring in, storming gates. Absolutely gloating about
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: the fact that they've invaded another country. No, not by force.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: They're not, I mean, other than, like, they're forcing their
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: way through gates and stuff, but They're not carrying arms,
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: not shooting anybody. It's just a free-for-all invasion. And Spain
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: was just rolling over yesterday and allowing it to happen? Yeah,
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: that's what happened yesterday over the course of 24 hours.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: So for those of us back in the United States
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: of America watching all of this, of course, the images
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: are horrific. And you're thinking, this is insane. I can't
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: believe this is even happening. I've got more. Here's Moroccan
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: men leaving all sorts of garbage in their wake. These
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: are not people coming to.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: Look at this.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: Trash everywhere. Some of them carried bicycles in. They brought
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: their own modes of transportation. Look at this. Just coming in,
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: wearing soccer jerseys, shorts, barefoot, storming an entire country, no
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: consequences whatsoever.
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: Hmm.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: And as they come, it's not just trash. It's also
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: physical street fights. We've got, look at this, cut three.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: Here's a fight straight in the middle of the streets
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: of Ceuta. There's fights going on. And now that the
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Moroccans are the majority population, the invaders, I expect we'll
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: see a lot more of this.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: Watch.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: Here, cut three. Incredible. Absolutely incredible.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: Incredible.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: Fighting in the streets, people just sprinting to the streets,
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: kicking each other. We've seen images of people trying to
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: break into apartments, Moroccans trying to break into Spanish apartments,
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: climbing up the sides of these walls. It's like a
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: zombie invasion. What the hell's going on?
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: So one more for you, one more of the invasion,
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: and then we'll get to some of the predicates here.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: Why did this happen? Here is some of the imagery
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: of the overrun beach line as people walk just straight
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: down the beach, kind of wrap around the barrier from
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: Morocco directly into Spanish territory. Take a look. Here's cut four.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: Look at that. Just look at the mass of humanity.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: For those of you on the audio podcast right now,
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: the images really are unbelievable. I'm just watching as tens
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: of thousands of Moroccan men are walking around this measly
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: barrier into Spanish territory. Nobody there to stop them, no
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: efforts whatsoever to barricade them. Eventually, the Spanish military has
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: been mobilized, but that's a pretty late process, isn't it?
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: as you've already got tens of thousands of invaders, and
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: are they going to be sent back? Well, this is interesting.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: This is a very interesting quandary because Spain has done
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: something completely suicidal. In fact, there was a recent Supreme
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: Court's decision in Spain that ruled that migrants who come
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: by sea can't be easily and rapidly deported, unlike migrants
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: who come by land. Now, if that's insane to you,
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: That's because it's insane. It's totally insane. So you can
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: rapidly deport somebody who stays on terra firma, but you
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: can't rapidly deport someone who dips their toes in the water,
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: which you just witnessed to the tune of tens of
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: thousands of people dipping their toes in the water and
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: then walking into Ceuta. That's what Spain has going on.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: Here's the New York Times overnight as they describe some
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: of this. Spain mobilizes the military as thousands of migrants
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: cross into Ceuta. The arrivals in Ceuta, a six-mile-long peninsula
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: on Morocco's northern coast that Spain has governed for centuries,
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: have fueled political tensions. Well, no kidding. What do you
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: mean they've fueled political tensions? This is societal chaos. I
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: love the understatement here. This could create some political tension.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: This could create the collapse of an entire country, you morons.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: Thousands of migrants crossing into Spain's North African territory. Now,
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: on the Supreme Court decision, this is what the New
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: York Times says, Spain's interior ministry said human smuggling networks
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: were seizing on a recent Supreme Court decision to encourage
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: migrants to try to enter Europe through Spain. That decision
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: barred the summary return of migrants intercepted at sea while
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: attempting to reach the Spanish territories. The summary return, summary
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: return would be We grab you by the oversized basketball
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: shorts and we throw you out of the country the
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: second you walk in. That would be summary deportation. That's
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: not what's happening here. Instead, they're rolling over for invasion.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: They're rolling over in Spain for invasion right now. Well,
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: the Supreme Court told us to roll over. So they're
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: rolling over. And you've got Moroccan invaders who are taking
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: advantage of this weakness. And, you know, the prime minister
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: of Spain, is a guy called Pedro Sanchez. Pedro Sanchez.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: And this guy, Pedro Sanchez, is a moron. I listened
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: to him earlier this year talking about how Spain is
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: very welcoming and generous. This is Spain's weak-ass prime minister
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: creating the conditions where the country can be invaded. Cut five, watch.
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: Some say we've gone too far, that we're going against
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: the current. But I would like to ask you, when
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: did recognizing rights become something radical? When did empathy become
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: something exceptional? Spain is above all a welcoming country, and
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: this is the path we choose. Dignity, community, and justice.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: Dignity, community, justice. Well, not for Spaniards. No dignity for you.
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: No dignity for you. the people who live here. Dignity
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: for invaders. Now, there's a lot of warning signs built
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: into this. The reason this is an American story as
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: we talk about it is because of what it warns
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: us about happening to our own country. And And if yes,
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: of course, we've had a lot of this happen to
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: our own countries. I'll get to that in a moment.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: But first, this Pedro Sanchez, do you know what he is?
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: In addition to being weak, in addition to betraying his
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: own people, do you know what he is? He's a socialist.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: He is a member of the Spanish Socialist Workers Party.
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: He's one of these commies who don't believe in borders,
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: who believe that borders are somehow an evil, He's an
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: agent of chaos running his country into the dirt. Any
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: warning signs here for the rest of us? Should we
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: empower socialists in the United States to take over our affairs?
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: They're already promising to do precisely what Pedro Sanchez is
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: doing to his own country. They're promising to kick our
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: borders wide open again. They want people to pour in.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: They don't think Americans deserve a nice country. that there's
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: anything laudable about the 250 years of American history that
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: our ancestors built. They're agents of chaos, like Pedro Sanchez.
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: They're socialists, just like that guy. How about no? How
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: about we reject that outright? Meanwhile, the socialists, of course,
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: are taking over the Democrat Party. I started this week,
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: if you go back, I believe it was to the
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: Monday podcast, we talked about the rise of the Democrat
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: Socialists of America. And the long game that they've been
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: undertaking to take over the Democrat Party here in the
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: United States of America, unfortunately, it's working. They've been doing
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: that with a lot of success. And now it's created
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: a full-blown civil war in the Democrat Party. The best
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: case scenario is that leads to that party's collapse and
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: obscurity and just disappearance into the political wilderness. But that's
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: hoping for a lot. The concern should definitely be that
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: the socialists are on the rise. And these are the
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: kinds of plans they have in store for us. this
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: kind of chaos. In fact, we've seen this chaos at
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: the hands of these Democrats here in the United States.
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: You'd be forgiven for suppressing the memory of what our
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: country looked like while Joe Biden was being kept in
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: the Oval Office and fed a steady dose of soft foods.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: This is what it looked like. Remember this? Western lensmen
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: pulling these clips. Here he is, Alejandro Mayorkas, the awful,
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: evil former DHS secretary and our U.S.
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: Border.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: Take a look at what it used to look like.
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: Cut sticks. The challenges of the border are very complex
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: and dynamic. All right, well, I'm going to take from
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: that that if you can't answer yes, then the answer
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: is no. That is not true.
• 12:57
  Speaker 5: All right, so then you're saying all nine are secure.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: It is my testimony that the border is secure. We
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: are working every day, day and night, to increase its security. Yeah, right.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: So the reality is, as much as we're hardified by
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: the images of what we're seeing in a small Spanish territory.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: We had this happen on our border. Our border has
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: been wide open for years. Tens of millions of military-aged
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: males from every country on planet Earth were pouring into
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: the United States at the invitation of Joe Biden, Kamala Harris,
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: Alejandro Mayorkas, and all of these agents of chaos who've
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: been running the Democrat Party and leading us down a
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: path of destruction. Now, President Trump keeps getting elected in
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: an attempt to reverse all of that misfortune. And it's
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: had some positive effect. President Trump has locked down the border.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: He's deported a lot of people. That mission continues to
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: be underway. Restoring order is essential. But it only lasts
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: insofar as we have leaders who are actually going to
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: protect us. Right now, we do. And those leaders have
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: been warning Europe about the disaster that awaits them if
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: they continue down the road that they are clearly on.
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: Among them, people like J.D. Vance, the vice president of
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: the United States. who has issued warnings to Europe over
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: and over and over again about how they are headed
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: down the path of destruction of their once great cultures
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: and societies. Watch, here's J.D. Vance back in, I believe
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: this was at CPAC 2025, cut seven, talking about Europe's collapse. Watch.
• 14:36
  Speaker 6: The greatest threat in Europe is that you've had the
• 14:39
  Speaker 6: leaders of the West decide that they should send millions
• 14:45
  Speaker 6: and millions of unvetted foreign migrants into their countries.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: That is the biggest threat to Europe.
• 14:51
  Speaker 6: And frankly, it remains, by the way, the biggest threat
• 14:54
  Speaker 6: to the United States because, yes, we've got four years
• 14:57
  Speaker 6: of President Trump's leadership. But I guarantee you, if the
• 15:00
  Speaker 6: Democrats ever get power again, they're going to try to
• 15:03
  Speaker 6: do it again.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: He's right. He's totally right. We've got Trump right now. Remember,
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: it didn't take any new laws. All it took was
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: a new president. But the same is true of border
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: disaster for the United States. Restarting the invasion of the
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: planet into the United States of America wouldn't take a
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: new law. It would just take a new president, which
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: is why we have to work so hard to prevent
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: the left from seizing power again in the United States.
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: Of course, that goes back to the Save America Act, which,
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: of course, is a preeminent concern. We have to get
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: that passed. We'll get to that coming up. But J.D.
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: Vance's warning is correct. We have another warning from J.D.
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: Vance.
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: He's talked about this a lot. Take a look.
• 15:46
  Speaker 6: I really believe that we have a great deal in
• 15:48
  Speaker 6: common with Europe. And I'm not, you know, yes, the
• 15:51
  Speaker 6: Europeans annoy me sometimes. And yes, I disagree with them
• 15:54
  Speaker 6: on certain issues. But we have to remember that is
• 15:56
  Speaker 6: the cradle of Western civilization. The entire idea of Christian
• 16:00
  Speaker 6: civilization that led to the founding of the United States
• 16:03
  Speaker 6: of America, that was formed in Europe.
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: The cultural bonds, the religious.
• 16:07
  Speaker 6: Bonds, these things are going to last beyond political disagreements.
• 16:11
  Speaker 6: But I think that Europe, and frankly, I would have
• 16:14
  Speaker 6: said this about America a year ago, But America, Europe
• 16:17
  Speaker 6: is at risk, I think, of creating, of engaging in
• 16:20
  Speaker 6: civilizational suicide. They are unable to, or unwilling, too many
• 16:25
  Speaker 6: countries to control their borders. You see them starting to
• 16:27
  Speaker 6: push back against that, and good, that's a good thing.
• 16:30
  Speaker 6: You see them starting to limit the free speech of
• 16:32
  Speaker 6: their own citizens. even as those citizens are protesting against
• 16:36
  Speaker 6: things like the border invasion that got Donald Trump and
• 16:40
  Speaker 6: a number of European leaders elected. So look, I want
• 16:43
  Speaker 6: Europe to thrive. I want them to be an important ally.
• 16:46
  Speaker 6: Part of that is going to be Europe respecting its
• 16:49
  Speaker 6: own people, respecting its own sovereignty, and America.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: Can't do that job for them.
• 16:54
  Speaker 6: If you have a country like Germany, where you have
• 16:56
  Speaker 6: another few million immigrants come in from countries that.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: Are totally culturally.
• 17:01
  Speaker 6: Incompatible with Germany, then it doesn't matter what I think
• 17:04
  Speaker 6: about Europe. Germany will have killed itself. And I hope
• 17:08
  Speaker 6: they don't do that because I love Germany and I
• 17:09
  Speaker 6: want Germany to thrive.
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: You know, the deepest elements of your culture are in
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: fact religious, by the way. The deepest elements, the most
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: sincere elements of who you are and how you relate
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: to people are often found in your religion. Christianity, in
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: this case, Christianity in Europe's case, Because you just heard
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: him use the word Christianity, and it makes me think
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: a lot about what we just saw in Spain, which
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: is the following, that remember Ceuta, this small Spanish territory
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: right at the northern tip of Africa there, that predominantly
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: is Catholic. Predominantly. Now, are there Muslim populations?
• 17:48
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: There's a minority Muslim population there. There are Jewish populations
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: inside of Ceuta. But it's predominantly Christians. And now it's
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: just been overwhelmed by Muslim invaders who, if Spain allows it,
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: will become, and I don't even know how much they
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: can turn it back, given the number of people, it's
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: now majority Muslim. So overnight, we went from a small
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: area that was majority Christian to now dominantly Muslim because
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: of the invasion. Does that have an effect on a culture?
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: Does that have an effect on a country? Does that
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: create destabilization? You damn... well are right about that. You're
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: totally right about that. It destroys it. Ceuta is no more,
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: if this is allowed to stand.
• 18:38
  Speaker 5: No more.
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: And we're witnessing it right now. You know, the other
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: piece of this is it's not just J.D. Vance who
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: has issued these warnings to Europe. Need I remind you,
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: Marco Rubio, the great Secretary of State, man, I love
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: these guys, They've both been so completely candid, honest, and
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: aggressive on this issue. Here's Marco Rubio, not that long ago,
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: Munich Security Conference, talking about this issue, saying that Europe
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: just opened up its damn borders, and it has been
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: a nightmare. And they're not alone. The United States did
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: it too, with Joe Biden and the globalist class all
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: trying to basically destroy any notion of borders whatsoever. when
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: we have a Western civilization to protect. Here's Marco Rubio
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: on that subject.
• 19:25
  Speaker 4: But to use as leverage against our own. And in
• 19:28
  Speaker 4: a pursuit of a world without borders, we opened our
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: doors to an unprecedented wave of mass migration that threatens
• 19:35
  Speaker 4: the cohesion of our societies, the continuity of.
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: Our culture, and the future of our people.
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: We made these mistakes together, and now together we owe
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: it to our people to face those facts and to
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: move forward to rebuild.
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: We owe it to our people. We have to face this.
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: We have to move forward. We have to rebuild. And
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: what should we rebuild? We should rebuild our borders. We
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: should rebuild our sovereignty. We should rebuild our commitment to
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: the people who make up this country. This is why,
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: you know, when we talk, when we hear these people
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: say that, oh, America is a nation of immigrants. We've
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: talked about this before, but the whole concept of telling
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: people that America is a nation of immigrants is designed
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: to try and rob you of any sort of mental
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: understanding that this country belongs to you and your family.
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: It's to diminish the thought process that you have inherited
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: something of value. Anybody can pour in here. No, America
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: is not a nation of immigrants. America is a nation
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: of Americans. And we would do well to remember that.
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: And Europe would do well to remember the great legacy
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: that it has, that it has gifted us as a country.
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: We're marking 250 years of this wonderful country. There are
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: buildings in Europe that are older than this country, many
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: of them. But we're watching Europe in collapse. And that
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: breaks our hearts because we are the inheritors of some
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: of the greatest gifts humanity has ever given us. And
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: they come through Europe. They do. So a warning sign,
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: a warning sign in what's happening right now in Spain
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: as we're witnessing all of this. It's tragic. The president
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: and the White House reacting to this yesterday, saying that
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: we warned you. We warned you about this. Bill Malusian
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: has this up from the White House. This is what
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: he said. White House statement on African migrants overrunning the
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: Spanish border in Ceuta. President Trump has long warned Europe
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: what would happen if they continued to implement far-left globalist policies,
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: including enabling mass migration. Spain and other countries who have
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: adopted this destructive philosophy should immediately reverse course or risk
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: their own demise. He's got the hat. Trump was right
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: about everything. He's right about this too. Yes, he is.
• 22:07
  Speaker 6: Yes, he is.
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: All right. So much more ahead on the program. I
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: have to talk to you about what's happening domestically here
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: as we try and prevent the socialists from seizing power
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: in the United States. We've seen how that's gone for Spain.
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: We'd like not to duplicate that here. There's a lot
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: more to get to all ahead on this edition of Vince,
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: including our great guest, Kurt Schlichter, is coming up just
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: moments away. We'll chat with him. But first, everybody's talking
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: about weight loss injections because the results are very dramatic.
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: They work by helping to lower your blood sugar, reduce
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: your appetite. But what if you want to lose the
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: weight and you don't want the painful weekly injections, especially
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: when you hear about some of those side effects? Well,
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: that's precisely why doctors at Brickhouse Nutrition created an amazing
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: weight loss supplement called Lean. And the results really are remarkable.
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: The studied ingredients in Lean have been shown to help
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: lower your blood sugar, help you burn fat by converting
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: it into energy, and help you curb your appetite and

  Speaker 1: your cravings. So you're less hungry. But listen, Lean by

  Speaker 1: any disease, and it's not a substitute or alternative for
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: care from a healthcare provider. All right, we move on
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: to the battle to get Todd Blanche to become the
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: full-time Attorney General of the United States. Now, right now,
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: he is being considered by the United States Senate for
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: full confirmation. But you have a couple of jackasses who
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: are standing in his way. That would include Thom Tillis
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: and John Cornyn, both of whom are destined for the
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: exits right now and in their bitter final months against
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: President Trump and his voters. are trying to throw up
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: as many roadblocks as they can to our success as
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: a country. And that would include blocking Todd Blanche from
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: becoming the attorney general. It's a super, super annoying story.
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: But the good news is that fundamentally, they actually can't
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: really stop him from being useful to the country. I'll
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: get to that in a moment, but first on where
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: we are right now. So Tillis and Cornyn have been
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: trying to blockade President Trump. So President Trump is throwing
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: down and announced this week on Truth Social, you know what?
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: I may actually just withdraw the nomination entirely and just
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: wait until these two idiots are gone in January, and
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: then I'll bring it back. How about I do that?
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: He announced that on Truth Social, which is funny. I
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: really like that. I think it's hilarious. Now, having said that,
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: you know, why are John Cornyn and Tom Tillis nominally,
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: excuse me, Tham, why are Tham and Cornyn blocking Blanche
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: right now? And this is the most sinister reasoning. It's
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: because President Trump's administration saw it fitting to create a
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: settlement fund that would pay out American citizens who were
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: tyrannized by the federal government. That's it. That's the whole thing.
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: I mean, I could get into why they created the
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: settlement fund. It was the product of them leaking Trump's
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: tax returns. I can point out that Trump would not
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: collect a single dime from the settlement fund, nor anybody
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: in his family, that the fund would be set up
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: entirely to make Americans whole who've been actually hurt by
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: the government, which really did happen. That's all of it.
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: And Tillis and... Cornyn are both so angry that this
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: fund was ever contemplated that they're demanding Todd Blanche in
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: writing swear that it will never come to pass, that
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: no American will ever derive a benefit from a federal
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: government that hurt them. That's really what they're upset about,
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: which is a way of saying that they're just being
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: petty bitches, honestly. That really is what this is about.
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: And And it's driving— the president is just annoyed by it. Yesterday,
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: John Cornyn talked to the press because he loves talking
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: to the press. And here he is doing a little
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: bit of whining about the president of the United States.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: Cut nine.
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: Watch.
• 26:06
  Speaker 7: What do you think that it signals that the president
• 26:07
  Speaker 7: is willing to withhold land rather than cede to.
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: What he wants to cede?
• 26:13
  Speaker 5: I don't know if it's just a negotiating technique on
• 26:16
  Speaker 5: his part, but it doesn't really solve any problems because
• 26:19
  Speaker 5: there's no guarantee— He's going to have enough Republican votes
• 26:22
  Speaker 5: in January to confirm him if he withdraws the nomination now.
• 26:28
  Speaker 5: I think we just ought to sit down and try
• 26:30
  Speaker 5: to solve the problem, much what we've been trying to
• 26:32
  Speaker 5: do at DOJ. And we thought we were really close
• 26:36
  Speaker 5: until now the president has basically blown that up.
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: Just in terms of the president's post earlier today, I mean,
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: do you think this is personal?
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
• 26:49
  Speaker 5: I mean, the president was treated badly when an IRS
• 26:53
  Speaker 5: contractor released his personal tax returns. I mean, and the
• 26:57
  Speaker 5: contractor's now in prison. So there was definitely a basis
• 27:01
  Speaker 5: for the original lawsuit. But the problem is this settlement
• 27:06
  Speaker 5: goes far beyond that and purports to provide future immunity
• 27:10
  Speaker 5: from tax audits for all of the affiliated organizations for
• 27:16
  Speaker 5: the president and his family, which I think... understand could
• 27:20
  Speaker 5: go and range into the hundreds. And they weren't parties
• 27:24
  Speaker 5: to the lawsuit, so they shouldn't be parties to the deal. Okay,
• 27:30
  Speaker 5: enough of this.
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: I mean, look, I want to remind people, the constitutional
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: role of the United States Senate when it comes to
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: these confirmations is not to run the executive branch of
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: the government. It's advice and consent over whether or not
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: the nominee is well-qualified. The obvious answer to that question
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: with Todd Blanch is he's more than well-qualified. He's been proven,
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: not just as an attorney standing alongside President Trump and
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: defending him from this kind of tyranny, but as the
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: acting Attorney General of the United States. Both of these
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: guys should be confirming him immediately And yet they're raising
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: a stink because they want to run the Justice Department. Well,
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: if you do, why don't you get your guy elected
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: and then you get nominated to become the attorney general?
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: In the meantime, stop being a jackass and just get
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: this guy through. It's pretty obvious. Now, the president has
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: jumped in today, as of this morning, just as we're
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: starting today. as always, is breaking news on Truth Social.
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: And he offers this detail about John Cornyn. He said,
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: John Cornyn never had a problem with the so-called fund,
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: which will not benefit me, but rather the great American
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: patriots who were hunted down like dogs and whose lives
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: were unfairly and illegally destroyed by the crooked Joe Biden
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: administration until after I decided to endorse and support his
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: Republican primary opponent in Texas. In other words, it's not
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: personal on Trump's part. It's personal on Cornyn's part. He says,
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: Paxton easily won the nomination for United States Senate. Perhaps
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: there's never been a group of people treated so badly
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: in our nation's history. They're suffering still, many ruined, and
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: I felt that they should be given compensation for what
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: has been done to them. I gave up any payments
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: for myself, which would have been substantial, including for the
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: illegal and unprecedented raid on Mar-a-Lago, my home in Florida.
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: Even though many legal experts and others, including John Cornyn,
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: said it was a shocking and disgusting display of weaponization
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: against me. Such an event has never happened before and
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: hopefully will never happen again. I will always feel that
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: these victims of government abuse should be paid back for
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: what they were forced to endure. Their lives have been ruined.
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: Millions of people agree with me, as was proven in
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: my landslide presidential win, where this was a major subject
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: of debate. And so did John Cornyn, until he lost
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: his election to an opponent that I endorsed. Todd Blanch,
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: a good man, should be immediately approved as U.S. Attorney General.
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: Thank you for your attention to this matter, President Donald J.
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: Trump.
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: The president saying, just confirm him. This is so stupid. Now,
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: the good news here, the good news here. Oh, and
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: by the way, John Cornyn enthusiastically endorsed Merrick Garland, to
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: be clear. John Cornyn said Merrick Garland is very well qualified.
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: He should become the attorney general of the United States,
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: who would then go on to tyrannize the United States,
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: just in case you're wondering what his standards are. But
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: the good news here is Todd Blanche, as the acting
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: attorney general right now, here's a fun fact about him.
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: He was already Senate confirmed as the deputy attorney general,
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: which means it doesn't really matter what John Cornyn wants.
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: He can stay acting attorney general for the rest of
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: Trump's term. The only thing that would change if he
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: gets Senate confirmed is the title. That's the good news today.
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: All right, more in a moment as we bring in
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: Kurt Schlichter. We'll chat with him about all of this
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: and find out what's going on with him in just
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: a moment here on The Vince Show. Well, technically, this
• 30:43

  Speaker 1: red light face mask, very impressive. I've been using, my
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: wife uses it rather. Allison uses it each day. She
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: charges it up and then it holds its charge forever.
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: She uses it each day because it improves her skin's texture,

  Speaker 1: our next guest. Kurt Schlechter is in the house. He's
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: a town hall senior columnist, a retired infantry army colonel,
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: and he joins us now. Hello, sir. Good to see you,
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: as always.
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: How's it going, man?
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: It's going very well. It's going very well. And thank you,
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: by the way, early riser. This is your military background.
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: You're in California, and you're joining us so very early.
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: Appreciate you for that, sir.
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: It's like 2 a.m. or something.
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Whatever. I'm glad you're up. You played through.
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: You just stayed up all night. Hey, Kurt, what do
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: you make of this battle over whether or not Todd
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: Bland should be the attorney general? Is this as stupid
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: as it looks to me?
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: Well, look, I think the key question that we have
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: to face here, Vince, is whether the podcast version of
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: The Vince Show is FCC compliant so that I can—
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: Use the proper verbiage to describe.
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: Please use your expansive vocabulary to describe this.
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: I'm going to try and keep control, but it's a
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: bunch of crap. John Cornyn is human garbage. Now, I
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: split my time between California and Texas. And when I
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: was living in Texas during the primary, we were bombarded.
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: with John Cornyn is Trump's bestest buddy ads. You know,
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: John Cornyn helping Donald Trump, following Trump's agenda, being the
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: most Trumpy guy ever, whoever, Trump to Trump. He's Trumpy.
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: And it was, I mean, it was pathetic. And, you know,
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: the Texans saw through it like they're going to see
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: through that blasphemous imp running against the guy, Ken Paxton,
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: who beat the living snot out of Cornyn. But it's
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: hilarious that Cornyn turns out to be exactly the doofus
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: we all knew he was. A pompous, overinflated mediocrity with
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: delusions of adequacy, walking around trying to channel a statesman
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: when he's just really like, you know, he's the Ted
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: Baxter of the U.S. Senate. For those of you who
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: grew up watching the Mary Tyler Moore show, except Ted
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: Knight was an amusing guy who went on to be
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: on Caddyshack. And John Cornyn is going to be the
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: loser who gets sent home in shame in January because
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: his own state. completely and totally rejected him.
• 35:18
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: Because of his track record of failure.
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: And he's defined by a particular form of sort of
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: conventional Washington deceit, which is like just straight up lie
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: as much as possible in the run-up to an election.
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: and then betray the people who sent you into office
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: in the first place. Because like, for instance, as he
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: was trying to get President Trump's endorsement, he kept insisting
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: that he was some great backer of the Save America Act.
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: He's like, I'm for by any means necessary, whatever it takes,
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: get rid of the filibuster. I've got to get this
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: thing through. He wrote it, of course, in the New
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: York Post. They put it in a New York newspaper
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: to try and convince Donald Trump that he had this position.
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: It wasn't about convincing Texas voters. He wasn't bothering with them.
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: He didn't give a crap about it. But now that
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: he's lost, he's totally useless on this subject. He's not
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: fighting to get the Save America Act passed. He's upset
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: that his vacation may be upended.
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: You know, the criticism of these guys is they're a
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: bunch of... posturing dorks who have nothing but contempt for
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: the base and a boundless regard, self-regard, even though they're
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: utterly unaccomplished. I mean, you know, go through history and
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: find something that John Cornyn achieved. And you, you will
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: come up empty. And I mean, he's, he's like this
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: stereotype of the kind of guys we've been trying to
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: boot out of office for the last 20 years. And it's,
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: And it's just, it's amazing when somebody is exactly like
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: you think he is. Right. You know, he's, it's, it's
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: almost impossible to be such a perfect example of everything
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: we hate. And, and, and he, and the thing is
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: the beauty of it is he's now screwing his buddies.
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: Him and Tom Tillis is another of these gibos. Right. Um,
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: Next year, we're going to have John Thune, Jiminy Langford,
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: Barbara Murkowski, and some other of these dorks come up
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: and face primaries. And the challenger is going to say, well,
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: you saw what Cornyn did. You saw how Cornyn lied
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: to everybody. Thune's doing the same thing. Langford's doing the
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: same thing when he's not busy cohabitating with the Democrats
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: about giving amnesty. I mean, these guys are just ridiculous.
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: And they're so... It's a combination between being stupid and
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: surrounding by these, you know, toe-licking supplicants. Oh, you're so great.
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: You're such a statesman. You're such an important man. Look
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: at you. And you've got the thing on your... You've
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: got a special elevator. And we can't leave the room alone. Uh-huh.
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they got their Wonka Vader. They're Charlie. They got
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: the Chocolate Factory, and they're keeping it to themselves.
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: And they got the Oompa Loompas. You know, I worked
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: on the Hill for a short time, 40 years ago
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: when I was a kid, but I never forgot it.
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: I remember Ted Kennedy, who's kind of the quintessential one
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: of these, staggering out of an elevator, you know, his
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: face looking like it's on fire, smelling like a frat
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: house on New Year's Day. I mean, these people, these
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: kind of guys are a joke. They're a dinosaur breed
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: who don't understand it. It's like the giant comet has
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: struck the earth.
• 38:54
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: The giant wall of flame is expanding out from the crater.
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: They're just going on, you know. They're going, I'm the
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: king of everything.
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's right. Now they're dancing on the rooftop
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: as the alien invasion is coming in and blowing up
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: the building. And what was that, Independence Day? Yeah, no,
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: that's right.
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: Exactly. The building I worked next to when I was
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: a lawyer then.
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: So the joke was the lights.
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: Are still on because the lawyers are still working.
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: That's funny. So these guys, so let's so let's bring
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: it back to like, you know, the attorney general thing.
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: You've got Todd Blanche, who I think is eminently qualified
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: to be considered the full attorney general of the United
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: States Senate confirmed. And then at the same time, John
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: Cornyn enthusiastically, alongside a bunch of other Republicans, said, oh,
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: Merrick Garland's great, too. Garland is the one who straight
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: up led an attack on the republic. And Todd Blanch
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: is being put in this position to redress that grievance.
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: This is so quintessentially the gentlemanly decline republican. The— The,
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: you know, getting passed around for cigarettes on the cell
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: block by the Democrats. I mean, it's almost, you look
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: at it and you go, it's almost too on the nose.
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: It's almost like, you know, John Lithgow is the as
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: the preacher and footloose. It's just too much. Give us
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: a little subtlety, but he can't because he really is
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: that bad. He really is that ridiculous. He really is
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: that goofy. And he really does despise the voters that much.
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: And that's the thing. That's the common element with these guys.
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: Even guys like Mitch McConnell, who has actually achieved some things,
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: And he was a very cunning warrior. But at the
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: end of the day, he looks at guys like you
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: and me and your audience and says, you should shut
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: up and obey. And I don't know if they've ever
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: met any actual Americans, except the little guys, you know,
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: the little goofs in the $ 200 JCPenney suits they have
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: in their offices. But Americans aren't, okay, I'll shut up
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: and obey kind of people, as John Cornyn found out.
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no, that's true. What do you make of this
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: development that the base, I would say, the MAGA base,
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: is more attentive to the affairs of Washington than ever before,
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: and we're kind of hovering over them like we're their
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: parole officers now? To the point that I would say
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: this audience has a better understanding of how the United
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: States Senate operates than some senators do. They're not even
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: aware of, and I mean this, I think there are
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: senators who don't really understand the filibuster, its intent, how
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: it works. They've never spent any time thinking about it.
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: They've just been on a glide path. Meanwhile, the rest
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: of us are thinking sincerely about how we get answers
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: to our questions.
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: Well, it's self-defense. See, 20-some years ago, 25 years ago,
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: we didn't want to have to do this. We thought, oh,
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: we'll elect a good guy. He'll go there and take
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: care of things, and I can focus on my job
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: and get my kid to soccer practice.
• 42:07
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: And, you know, saving up so I can go on vacation.
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: And then we realized that they weren't looking out for us.
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: And if we are going to look out for ourselves,
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: nobody's going to do it. That was a message of
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: the Tea Party. Democracy is a participation sport. And that's
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: why the Republicans especially were so outraged by the whole
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: Tea Party. I mean, I was there. My gosh, I'm old.
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: They were like, well, wait a minute. Why do you,
• 42:35
  Speaker 2: what are you doing?
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: Who do you think you are? Yeah, who the hell
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: do you think you are?
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: American citizens?
• 42:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: And they were offended. And guys like John Cornyn are
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: still offended that we refused to say, well, John, just
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: tell us what to do and we'll vote for you.
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: I love every six years you put on a cowboy hat.
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: That's convincing.
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, cowboy hat candidacy. That's funny. No, that's true. That's
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: definitely true. Let me let me tap into some of
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: your legal wisdom now on Anthony Fauci this week, if
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: you don't mind, Kurt. Anthony Fauci testified before the United
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: States Senate. He pled the fifth, allegedly invoking it to
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: cover for a time period that he already has a
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: presidential pardon. So I'm not really quite sure how he
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: could incriminate himself by just explaining all of the crimes
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: he committed. because he has a pardon, allegedly, although it
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: was given by an auto pen. I still would love
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: to see that tested. What did you make of his
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: decision to invoke the Fifth Amendment 111 times in that hearing?
• 43:38
  Speaker 2: Let me make everybody really mad because I'll put on
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: my defense attorney hat.
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: Please.
• 43:43
  Speaker 2: Anthony Fauci did exactly the right thing, and I would
• 43:46
  Speaker 2: have advised him to do exactly the same thing, and
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: he will get away with it. Let's start with the pardon.
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: The pardon, the auto pen thing, It would be fun
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: to challenge it. That will lose. He will he will
• 43:57
  Speaker 2: win on the pardon. The pardon will be valid. The
• 43:59
  Speaker 2: pardon covers federal crimes up to the date of the pardon. Yes,
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: there is federal law that says there's there's good case
• 44:08
  Speaker 2: authority that says you can't invoke the Fifth Amendment, the
• 44:13
  Speaker 2: right against self-incrimination against a crime for which you've been pardoned. OK.
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: All right. Fair enough. He's been pardoned for federal crimes.
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: He hasn't been pardoned for state crimes. And a bunch
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: of state AGs, including Florida AG, who I like and
• 44:30
  Speaker 2: whose job is not to ensure, whose job is to
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: enforce Florida law, not to ensure that the federal government
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: can force Anthony Fauci to testify, went on right away
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: after Fauci did his 110, you know, what's your name?
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: I invoke the fifth. What day is it? I invoke
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: the fifth. And said, well, I'm opening a Florida investigation.
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: I'm investigating violations of Florida law. Therefore, Fauci potentially could
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: incriminate himself under Florida law or Texas law or some
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: other red patriotic state's law. And therefore, the Fifth Amendment applies.
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: He's not only legally entitled to do it, it's the
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: smart legal strategy. And I know there are people out
• 45:19
  Speaker 2: there pounding on the table going, Kurt, I hate hearing that. Well,
• 45:23
  Speaker 2: I'm not John Cornyn. And I'm not going to tell
• 45:26
  Speaker 2: you what I think you want to hear. I'm going
• 45:28
  Speaker 2: to tell you what I think you have to hear.
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: Well, and of course, you know, that's just one legal opinion,
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: although I do really trust.
• 45:36
  Speaker 2: Yes, it is.
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: I do trust Kurt. But let me raise this element, though.
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: I am pleased to see, regardless, that it looks like
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: you've got Rand Paul and his committee is going to
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: make a contempt of Congress proceeding out of all of
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: this and say that he was obstructing Congress through a
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: false invocation of the Fifth Amendment. and then send this
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: off to the United States Justice Department, and they can
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: handle it the way they want to. And then lawyers
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: can battle this out in court. But, you know, the
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: reality is, I don't know, I mean, just let me
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: ask you just as a normative matter, Kurt, doesn't it
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: seem obvious to you that nobody deserves more criminal scrutiny
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: right now than Anthony Fauci, of all people?
• 46:13
  Speaker 2: Oh, absolutely. I mean, it's been six years, so the
• 46:16
  Speaker 2: statute of limitations is going to bar a bunch of
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: things anyway. But yeah, but here's a tough fact. And
• 46:25
  Speaker 2: as those of us who've had teenagers here, it's not fair. Well,
• 46:32
  Speaker 2: life's not fair. The answer to Anthony Fauci, I'm afraid,
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: is not going to be found in the legal system.
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: Well, the federal government did indict his top lieutenant. I mean,
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: I think people forget this. There are elements of this
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: story that have already made some real progress in terms
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: of consequences.
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: And properly so. And I'd be interested in hearing what
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: proposed charges people would have against Fauci. I think they're
• 46:58
  Speaker 2: probably there. I'm just not sure which sections of the
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: United States Code he actually violated. being a general lying
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: dirtbag jerk isn't an indictable offense. Otherwise, John Cornyn would
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: be sitting in the dock with a bunch of other people.
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: But look, I just think, you know, Americans are very
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: litigious people. People are always saying, Kurt, can I sue?
• 47:24
  Speaker 2: Can we do this? Can we prosecute? And, you know,
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: I just got to say, the answer is not always
• 47:29
  Speaker 2: going to be found in the legal proceedings. It just isn't,
• 47:34
  Speaker 2: and I don't think we're going to get satisfaction from
• 47:37
  Speaker 2: Fauci that way. If it can be done without destroying
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: our Constitution, because I think the Fifth Amendment is very,
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: very important, and I think the pardon power is hugely
• 47:49
  Speaker 2: important to protect innocent people, I'm all for it. I'm
• 47:54
  Speaker 2: not willing to sacrifice the Constitution for that little creepy
• 48:01
  Speaker 2: gremlin dirt bag.
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: No, that's fair, but there's a huge element here of
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: the stability of the republic, because this is about the
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: rule of law, not the rule of loopholes, and when
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: you have a situation where the country was betrayed at
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: this level, you can see, of course, and I know
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: you know this, but why we have such a societal
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: appetite for justice, which is like, wait a second, there's
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: massive injustices that have happened here, and not just from COVID-19,
• 48:26
  Speaker 1: certainly people like John Brennan and James Comey and James
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: Clapper and all these other deep state idiots who, who
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: abused their power in order to undermine the duly elected
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: American president. These are the kinds of things that demand
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: consequences because otherwise the country can collapse without any trust
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: in our system.
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: I think you're absolutely correct. And Joe Biden and his
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: administration with Merrick Garland, who, who, who was supported by
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: John or by, uh, John Cornyn, incidentally, betrayed his office
• 49:01
  Speaker 2: by not pursuing it. That was the guy who should
• 49:05
  Speaker 2: have done it. He shouldn't have issued the pardon. He
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: should have had Merrick Garland focusing him instead of on
• 49:11
  Speaker 2: moms who were concerned about perverts walking in, waving the
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: whole sausage factory around their daughter's locker room. And he
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: did So has the United States government failed? Yes. Under
• 49:25
  Speaker 2: Joe Biden, it failed. I'm not sure what Donald Trump's
• 49:29
  Speaker 2: options are. I think it is important to have these hearings.
• 49:33
  Speaker 2: Although I... I find it weird that the senators don't
• 49:39
  Speaker 2: seem to learn from past mistakes. You put these Senate
• 49:44
  Speaker 2: hearings on the road. You don't do them in Washington, D.C.,
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: with all leftist judges and 95% Democrats on jury. So
• 49:53
  Speaker 2: if these guys do testify and lie, you do it
• 49:57
  Speaker 2: in a venue where they might actually get convicted. Wait, wait, wait.
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I didn't realize that that was a consideration. Oh, yeah, huge.
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: If the congressional hearing is held outside of Washington, D.C.,
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: and a perjury offense occurs in the course of the hearing,
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: the jurisdiction is where the hearing took place?
• 50:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you go to Dallas, you have the hearing in
• 50:19
  Speaker 2: the Northern District of Texas, and the venues in the
• 50:21
  Speaker 2: Northern District of Texas, where they have, you know, I
• 50:24
  Speaker 2: practiced there. They have much fairer judges and a much
• 50:28
  Speaker 2: fairer jury pool. But you don't do it in D.C.,
• 50:31
  Speaker 2: and I know it's very nice to have the big
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: Senate conference room where the, uh, you know, perverts like
• 50:38
  Speaker 2: to go and have sex with each other, uh, in
• 50:41
  Speaker 2: the off hours.
• 50:42
  Speaker 1: Democrats.
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: Are you sure? Um, but, uh, you know, it's, uh, uh, but, but,
• 50:53
  Speaker 2: you know, if you're serious about these things, you act seriously. Um,
• 50:58
  Speaker 2: doing the thing in Washington, hoping he'll lie. Maybe they
• 51:01
  Speaker 2: expect him to take the death.
• 51:03
  Speaker 1: I just didn't realize. I thought that the venue consideration
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: was for theatrics. I kind of agreed with it because
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: I just like getting things out of Washington. The closer
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: you are to the people, the better. But I didn't realize.
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: I hadn't contemplated that there are actual legal consequences in
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: terms of which jurisdiction it occurs in. I love that idea.
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: And in fact, these Republicans, anytime they've got these hostile witnesses,
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: they should do every single one of these hearings outside
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: of Washington.
• 51:28
  Speaker 2: We'll take them on the road to the American people.
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think the people of Nebraska, for instance,
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: deserve to see it up close and personal, right?
• 51:37
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 51:38
  Speaker 2: You know, this isn't the Hunger Games, you know, it's...
• 51:42
  Speaker 2: Go out to the districts.
• 51:45
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 51:45
  Speaker 2: To the district. I'm not exactly, it's not exactly my
• 51:49
  Speaker 2: young adult model.
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: You know, it's funny. We just watched it. My 12-year-old's
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: reading the books and we just watched the movie this
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: past week. So I'm totally dialed in. Excellent. They're from
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: District 12. Just to brag a little bit. But yeah, no,
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: this is, no, you're right. Go get out into the districts.
• 52:02
  Speaker 1: Get out into the United States of America, especially if
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: you can impose more legal consequences on the bad guys.
• 52:08
  Speaker 2: Exactly. Why do you set yourself up to fail?
• 52:12
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 52:13
  Speaker 2: I mean, haven't we learned these things yet? And, you know, admittedly,
• 52:19
  Speaker 2: the collective IQ of the United States Senate is hovering
• 52:23
  Speaker 2: at about room temperature.
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: And that's just Mike Lee carrying all the weight, which
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: is amazing. It's just amazing. All right.
• 52:31
  Speaker 2: There's a few good ones. Jim Banks is a good one.
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: I agree. I really like it. Tommy Tuberville is a hero.
• 52:37
  Speaker 2: Oh, he's hilarious.
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: He's the best. Kurt Schlichter, you're the best. Thank you
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: very much. And by the way, Kurt is going to
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: be filling for me on the big national radio show
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: next week, Wednesday. So if you love his wit and witticisms,
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: you're going to love the big Vince show coming up
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: next week. Wednesday is the great Kurt Schlichter fills it
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: for me. And Kurt, thank you for doing that. I
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: appreciate it.
• 52:54
  Speaker 2: Thanks for having me.
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, always brother.
• 52:56
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: More from Kurt coming up next Wednesday on the big
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: national radio show. There he is. Kurt Schlichter. A great American,
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: serves his country in so many capacities, including in the
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: United States military, our thanks to him. That was great.
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: He's super funny. Okay, so let me finish today on
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: the issue that I obsess over. This is, by the way,
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen, on the Save America Act, if you
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: don't mind, I got a hilarious email yesterday. Let me
• 53:22
  Speaker 1: find it in my inbox. It cracked me up. I
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: don't know if I can find it rapidly. I'll just
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: summarize it for you. I'll just tell you. So I
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: showed my daughter this yesterday. I was like, when did
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: you leave this email? I got an email yesterday from
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: a guy, a great listener of the program, but I
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: don't know how closely he's been listening because he said
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: to me yesterday, he goes, Vince, could you please spend
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: more time on the Save America Act? He said, you know,
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: the Anthony Fauci stuff, it's important, but you know, that's
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: kind of behind us now. We have to get the
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: Save America Act passed. Can you please spend more time
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: on it? I look at his email and I'm like, I,
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: Is the contention that I haven't been spending time on
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: the Save America Act. The Save America Act. We have
• 54:08
  Speaker 1: a gavel sound effect. I'm gaveling every day on the
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: Save America Act. But sure, I could spend more time
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: on it if you'd like. I'm not sure how much
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: more I could do. But I'm going to do it.
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: The Save America Act. Oh, we it's fun. This is
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: all fun. The Save America Act. Let's talk about it.
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: We have a list that's growing of the United States,
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: of the United States senators who are willing to forego vacation.
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: Here's another sound effect. Giving up vacation for the Save
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: America Act. Can you believe it? The list is growing.
• 54:51
  Speaker 1: Daniel Baldwin over at One America is doing a really
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: nice job tracking all of this for sure. Also, Nicole
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: Saverio at The Daily Caller has been doing a wonderful
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: job of tracking this too. But I have Daniel's list
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: up right here. Let me see. Daniel Baldwin. It appears
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: Republican senators willing to stay in D.C. during the August
• 55:08
  Speaker 1: recess to fight for the Save America Act has grown
• 55:11
  Speaker 1: to 16%. to 16. Mike Lee, Rick Scott, Ashley Moody,
• 55:16
  Speaker 1: Jim Banks, Tommy Tuberville, Darlene Graham, Bill Haggerty, Marsha Blackburn,
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: Katie Britt, John Kennedy, Todd Young, Eric Schmidt, Dave McCormick,
• 55:23
  Speaker 1: Roger Marshall, James Risch, and Ted Cruz. Thank you, Ted Cruz,
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: for finally joining the list. Appreciate you for being there.
• 55:31
  Speaker 1: I was feeling bad for producer Jim. He's a Texas guy,
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: and he was thinking to himself, I got giant corn
• 55:35
  Speaker 1: in it. That's a guarantee that we won't have somebody
• 55:39
  Speaker 1: on my side for the Save America Act, maybe Ted Cruz.
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: So Producer Jim did the work. He reached out to
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: Ted Cruz. I think he sent them an email. And
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: he said, Senator, please, as a Texas voter, I beg
• 55:51
  Speaker 1: of you, I need you on that wall. I need
• 55:54
  Speaker 1: you to say you're going to give up that fancy
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: vacation and pass the Save America Act. Ted Cruz coming through,
• 56:00
  Speaker 1: no doubt at the behest of Producer Jim, which we're
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: very grateful for. In fact, Ted Cruz was on the
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: TV yesterday saying, we should skip recess. Let's pass the
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: Save America Act. Here's what that sounded like. Cut 11.
• 56:12
  Speaker 1: Do you think you can get the Save America Act
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: over the finish line before the recess or before the
• 56:17
  Speaker 1: midterms even?
• 56:18
  Speaker 7: Look, we have to do everything humanly possible to pass
• 56:22
  Speaker 7: the Save America Act. I'm an original sponsor of the
• 56:24
  Speaker 7: Save America Act. For months, I've been making the argument
• 56:27
  Speaker 7: to my colleagues, we need to get this passed to
• 56:30
  Speaker 7: preserve election integrity, to stop rampant voter fraud.
• 56:34
  Speaker 2: As you noted, over.
• 56:34
  Speaker 7: 6,000 illegal voters registered in New Jersey. The Democrats, that's
• 56:40
  Speaker 7: how they stay in power. You look at the debacle
• 56:42
  Speaker 7: in California, they may still be counting votes in California.
• 56:45
  Speaker 7: Democrats want illegal aliens to vote. That's why they oppose
• 56:50
  Speaker 7: the Save America Act. We need to do everything humanly possible.
• 56:53
  Speaker 7: What I've been arguing to my colleagues is we need
• 56:56
  Speaker 7: to force the Democrats to do a talking filibuster, not
• 56:59
  Speaker 7: just raise a finger and say, I filibuster, but stand
• 57:02
  Speaker 7: up and talk and talk and talk. Think Jimmy Stewart.
• 57:06
  Speaker 3: And Mr.
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: Smith goes to Washington.
• 57:07
  Speaker 7: Or remember back to the 21 hours that I filibustered
• 57:10
  Speaker 7: on the Senate floor against the disaster that was Obamacare.
• 57:15
  Speaker 7: We need to make the Democrats do that until they
• 57:17
  Speaker 7: can talk no longer. And then we should pass the
• 57:20
  Speaker 7: Save America Act. absolutely we should stay here through August.
• 57:24
  Speaker 7: We should keep going until we get it done. And look,
• 57:28
  Speaker 7: it's a real press. Do we get 50 Republicans to
• 57:31
  Speaker 7: stand together? I am fighting tooth and nail to make
• 57:34
  Speaker 7: that happen. I'm grateful for the president fighting. We need
• 57:37
  Speaker 7: to get this done.
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: Perfect.
• 57:41
  Speaker 7: Perfect.
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: No notes. John Thune should sound like that. Imagine if
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: we had a leader who sounded like that. Ted Cruz
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: got it right there. He definitely got it right. And
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: now you may be thinking to yourself, Ted Cruz is
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: just trying to impress me because he wants to run
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: for president in 2028. Well, fine. I don't, whatever, whatever
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: his motivation is here. In fact, trying to impress voters
• 58:01
  Speaker 1: that you're on their side as a predicate to get
• 58:04
  Speaker 1: you to vote for them is kind of what you
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: expect out of lawmakers. You should, you should be working
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: to impress voters by doing what they've asked you to
• 58:12
  Speaker 1: do in the first place. You should do that. Ted
• 58:16
  Speaker 1: Cruz is doing that right now. And so he deserves
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: credit for that. But why doesn't John Thune sound like that?
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: Why isn't Thune saying we can pass this, stand on
• 58:24
  Speaker 1: your own two feet, exhaust debate, then have the vote
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: at 51? He's not saying that because he's lying to you.
• 58:30
  Speaker 1: He's lying by omission or he's lying explicitly when he
• 58:33
  Speaker 1: talks about the Civil Rights Act. He's just been lying.
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: It's a way of making excuses for failing you.
• 58:40
  Speaker 3: Deceit.
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: I don't like reporting that to you. I hate that
• 58:44
  Speaker 1: that's the case. but I'm always going to tell you
• 58:46
  Speaker 1: the truth. He's just been lying about it. Ted Cruz
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: was telling the truth there. It is achievable. Just have
• 58:51
  Speaker 1: the debate. Have the debate. Pass it at 51. Have
• 58:55
  Speaker 1: the debate. No vacation for you. Meanwhile, the rest of us,
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: if we so choose, might be able to get a
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: vacation in. And in fact, that's the segue, because I
• 59:07
  Speaker 1: am taking a break next week. I'm taking the family
• 59:09
  Speaker 1: on vacation. I'll report details back to you when we
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: get back. I promise it's going to be great. But
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: we're going to take a break for a week. I'll
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: be off a week plus a day just because of
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: the travel requirements as we come back. So I'll be
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: back the following Tuesday. That'll be, what are we dealing
• 59:23
  Speaker 1: with here? I don't know, whatever that is. But the
• 59:26
  Speaker 1: point is six days off. in terms of broadcast time.
• 59:30
  Speaker 1: Thank you for your patience with me. I appreciate it.
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: I always feel kind of tortured by taking off. I
• 59:34
  Speaker 1: don't really want to because I feel like we've got
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: a great situation. And so many of you have made
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: me a part of your life. And like, especially like
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: with the live audience, I just, I feel so, I
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: feel obligated to you. So I really do. And so
• 59:48
  Speaker 1: even just the contemplation of like, do we take a break?
• 59:50
  Speaker 1: I just, once I started thinking about it, I often
• 59:53
  Speaker 1: say no. I just like, this is a lot of work.
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: I don't want to betray people. I don't want to
• 59:57
  Speaker 1: walk away from them. But we're going to do it
• 59:59
  Speaker 1: this week. My wife's been asking me, can we please
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 1: do this? I was like, okay, fine. We're in. So
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 1: we're taking a break, doing that for a week. Next week, Josh,
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 1: do you, I don't know if you have a calendar
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 1: in front of you, if anybody's sitting in studio with
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 1: you can share this. I believe filling in for me
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 1: next week on the podcast, it's all about a guarantee,
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 1: is we've got Haley Karania is going to step in.
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 1: She's going to do a show for us. We've got
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: Sean Farish stepping in. He'll do, I think, a show
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 1: or two for us. We've got a couple shows for you,
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: all built in for the next week. It won't be
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 1: every day of the week, but we do have a
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: bunch of programs coming up in the next week for you.
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 1: That's all set up. And then on the big national

• 1:00:47
  Speaker 1: whole bunch of great patriots who are going to. do
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 1: the work of continuing to communicate with you and tell
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 1: you about what's going on in America and hopefully develop
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 1: some great developments over the course of the next week.
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 1: Wouldn't it be nice if I came back and I
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 1: didn't have to every single day about the Save America Act?
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 1: Wouldn't that be nice? Wouldn't it be nice to have
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: nice things again? That would be nice. That'd be nice.
