Ep. 3557 BREAKING: The Democrats CAVE on Shutdown!!! · Turley Talks

• 0:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: The liberal globalist order is on its brink and awakening a new conservative age.
• 0:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: 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_00]: This is Turley Talks.
• 0:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: Hey, gang, it's me, Dr. Steve, your back porch professor.
• 0:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: I hope you're all having an absolutely wonderful weekend.
• 0:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: But as always, I can assure you who is not.
• 0:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: And that, of course, is the disintegrating decomposing declining Democrat party.
• 0:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: This shutdown is playing out exactly like we predicted.
• 0:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: The Democrats are showing signs of cracking all over the place.
• 0:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: So as we speak,
• 0:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: Three Senate Democrats have already broken ranks, voting Republicans to in the shutdown.
• 0:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: So that would be John Federman of Pennsylvania.
• 0:56
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know, we've talked about him.
• 0:58
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's he's defecting from the Democrats entirely.
• 1:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's just a matter of time.
• 1:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: At some point we'll see if he switches to independent or Republican.
• 1:07
  [SPEAKER_00]: Katherine Cortez Masto from Nevada's the second one, and Angus King, he's an independent from Maine, but he caucuses with the Democrat, but they all three have defected.
• 1:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: So you've got these three Democrat defectors in the Senate at the same time in the house.
• 1:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: You've got Representative Jared Golden,
• 1:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: publicly accusing his own party of giving him to the far left.
• 1:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: So he's blaming this entire shutdown on the radical progressive wing of his party.
• 1:34
  [SPEAKER_00]: You've got vulnerable senators and swing states like John Oslo from Georgia, who's starting to get very, very nervous, Maggie Hassan, Jean Shaheen, both a new hamster, Gary Peters of Michigan.
• 1:49
  [SPEAKER_00]: They're all getting super targeted by the GOP as they're seen as weak and particularly vulnerable for the midterms.
• 1:56
  [SPEAKER_00]: Now, it's getting really, really bad for the Democrats, while they're blocking funding the federal government until they get their $1.5 trillion spending that'll go in part to funding illegal migrants healthcare.
• 2:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: While that's happening, Trump has basically turned off
• 2:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: of blue state funding.
• 2:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: So we're talking 2.1 billion in Chicago transit projects another 18 billion in New York infrastructure funds.
• 2:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: They've been frozen.
• 2:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: You can add another 8 billion in green energy projects for blue states.
• 2:34
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's been frozen.
• 2:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: And so we're looking at upwards of about 30 billion dollars and suspended projects in blue states across the country all because Democrats
• 2:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: on funding the healthcare for illegals.
• 2:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: Already as we speak, President Trump has successfully removed upwards of 300,000 federal workers this year alone, that is the largest federal workforce reductions in World War II.
• 3:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: It adds up to basically one in every nine federal employees.
• 3:08
  [SPEAKER_00]: In fact, Democrats inadvertently triggered what experts are calling the largest mass resignation in U.S.
• 3:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: histories, 100,000 federal employees, formally quit as of September.
• 3:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: 30th.
• 3:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: And again, all because the Democrats insist on removing the provision in the big, beautiful bill that explicitly forbids a dime of Medicare and Medicaid going to illegals instead, the Democrats want to establish precedents that effectively declare immigration status irrelevant for federal benefit eligibility.
• 3:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: And that's key.
• 3:43
  [SPEAKER_00]: While current federal law technically prohibits
• 3:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: The Democrat proposal would fund federal health care programs that would apply regardless of one's immigration status.
• 3:58
  [SPEAKER_00]: So they're trying to pull the wall over everyone's eyes.
• 4:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: And obviously it is it's clearly not working.
• 4:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: And we knew from day one that it would not work.
• 4:08
  [SPEAKER_00]: And the reason for that is very, very simple.
• 4:13
  [SPEAKER_00]: The key to understanding why the Democrats are guaranteed to lose this is that this is a shutdown like no other.
• 4:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: So generally speaking, right, with all other historical shutdowns, you've got a tug of war between two sides, right.
• 4:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: So you had, yeah,
• 4:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: Clinton or you had bainer versus Obama, you had two sides and both sides were holding out with their own demands.
• 4:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: So the Democrats generally held out for certain spending increases, like they're doing exactly right now 1.5 trillion.
• 4:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: Republicans generally held out for spending cuts.
• 4:49
  [SPEAKER_00]: That was certainly the case with the Clinton Gingrich shutdown.
• 4:54
  [SPEAKER_00]: But the key here is that past shutdowns were showdowns.
• 4:58
  [SPEAKER_00]: Each side was holding out with a list of their own demands and eventually one side ended up taving.
• 5:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: They buckled under the political pressure as it were.
• 5:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: What makes this shutdown so unique is that there's only one side that's holding out.
• 5:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's absolutely essential to get in terms of the disproportionate calculus.
• 5:25
  [SPEAKER_00]: The other side's already got everything it wants by virtue of the Democrats holding out.
• 5:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: This is exactly what Mike Johnson said in the very first hour of the shutdown.
• 5:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: You Democrats don't seem to realize you have just handed, President Trump, the keys to the kingdom.
• 5:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: The anti-deficiency act of 1884 is the primary law that grants the Office of Management and Budget, the OMB, extraordinary managerial power during government shutdowns.
• 5:56
  [SPEAKER_00]: The authority to run the day-to-day affairs and DC transfers from the legislative branch to the executive branch in the case of a shutdown.
• 6:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: So now Trump and OMB director Russell Boat are basically free to do whatever they want.
• 6:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: But the Democrats have literally just handed the executive branch virtually unlimited power to fire and eliminate and dismantle federal government programs in departments as Trump and vote see fit.
• 6:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: And so the irony here is that they're freaking about Trump becoming an authoritarian, but then they turn around and then affect voluntarily gift him with that very authority.
• 6:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: They spend a year campaigning against Russ vote in project 2025, and now they're triggering the very project 2025 blueprint that they so vigorously campaigned against.
• 6:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: Only one side is holding out for what it wants, all the while they give the other side precisely what it wants as long as they hold out.
• 7:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: So there's honestly no incentive in the world for Trump or the Republicans to cave to the Democrats.
• 7:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's the Democrats have already given the publicans basically everything they want while they hold out for what they want.
• 7:13
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's insane.
• 7:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: The Republicans through Trump and vote basically run DC as long as the Democrats keep the government shut down.
• 7:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: So why on earth would Trump give up power and advantage like that?
• 7:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: He now has the capacity to enact lasting change in DC for literally generations to come, and that's exactly what he's doing every single day.
• 7:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: So we knew from day one, from our one, that this power disparity was going to be a disaster for the Democrats.
• 7:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: And that they inevitably would be the ones who would K. This was going to completely blow up in their faces.
• 7:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: So Senate Majority Leader John Thune is holding repeated votes to chip away each and every day at remaining Democrat unity with five more Democrat infections needed to end the shutdown.
• 8:07
  [SPEAKER_00]: each vote exposes more cracks in their coalition, all as Trump and vote continue to tailor dismantle the administrative state, fire more federal workers.
• 8:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's an absolutely no win situation.
• 8:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: So obviously, keep a very close line how things develop here, but right now, there is no question.
• 8:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: Three Democrats have already broken ranks.
• 8:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: One house member is publicly revolting against his leadership blaming his party for the shutdown, and five more senators face mounting pressure to defect each and every day.
• 8:40
  [SPEAKER_00]: Democrats aren't just losing this shutdown.
• 8:43
  [SPEAKER_00]: They're permanently damaging their coalition while Trump achieves concrete victories for generations.
• 8:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: This is not governance.
• 8:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: this is political suicide and the cave in has already begun.
• 8:58
