1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,040
Speaker 1: Samar in Nigel Show. My name is Nigel Jason Hammer.

2
00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:06,320
Speaker 1: Is here been a big week in the news, the

3
00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:09,560
Speaker 1: government shutdown. We had the elections earlier this week in

4
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:13,280
Speaker 1: some states didn't go too well for Republicans. We have

5
00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:17,360
Speaker 1: airline flights being reduced because of the government shut down.

6
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:19,599
Speaker 1: Here to break it all down for us and more,

7
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:24,360
Speaker 1: Breitbart Deputy Politics editor Bradley Jay Bradley, I know you

8
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 1: guys had a policy event with Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy

9
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:34,120
Speaker 1: this morning in DC. Some pretty shocking headlines on Breitbart

10
00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 1: dot com right now concerning airlines and the FAA. Why

11
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:40,960
Speaker 1: don't we start there with this policy event and what's

12
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,200
Speaker 1: going on with the flights and why are they being

13
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 1: reduced this week?

14
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:47,519
Speaker 2: It was an excellent event.

15
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 3: Secretary Duffy did a fantastic job of laying out his

16
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 3: thinking at how the shutdown is affecting transportation and even

17
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:04,720
Speaker 3: more oddly, just how it's affecting Americans. And he had

18
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 3: some very pointed opinions that the Democrats need to get

19
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:14,200
Speaker 3: their stuff together and vote to end this shutdown because

20
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,280
Speaker 3: a lot of the damage and the pain from this

21
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 3: will last weeks even after the government reopens. He made

22
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:25,959
Speaker 3: the great point that unlike prior shutdowns, say during the

23
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 3: Obama administration, President Trump has gone out of his way

24
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,400
Speaker 3: to try to limit the pain on the American people

25
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,760
Speaker 3: from this shutdown, even though politically it might be better

26
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 3: off to let this humor shut down be as painful

27
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 3: as possible. But yeah, go to Breitbart dot com. There's

28
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 3: all kinds of news from that. When the establishment media

29
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 3: is covering a bright part event and they hate prime part,

30
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 3: that tells you that something is newsworthy.

31
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:57,559
Speaker 1: What are they saying about the reduction in flights because

32
00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 1: that was the big headline I saw not too long ago.

33
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 2: Well, it's only gonna get worse.

34
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 3: The Secretary's priority is safety.

35
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:10,640
Speaker 2: They want to ensure that we can as me flights

36
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:11,800
Speaker 2: as possible.

37
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 3: Are in the air, but they're not going to do

38
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:17,679
Speaker 3: it if anybody's at risk. But they have limited ability

39
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:21,520
Speaker 3: to keep to keep air traffic controllers on the job

40
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 3: right now because they're limited funds.

41
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:27,359
Speaker 2: He talked a lot about how a lot.

42
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,360
Speaker 3: Of air traffic controllers are just giving up and taking

43
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 3: second jobs, a lot of them who are in the

44
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 3: pipeline which the Trump administration had done such a fantastic

45
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 3: job at recruiting and beginning to train more air traffic controllers.

46
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 3: But they're saying, why do I want to do this

47
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,360
Speaker 3: if I'm gonna have to go months without a paycheck?

48
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:49,920
Speaker 3: Democrat senators are really forcing a lot of pain on

49
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:50,919
Speaker 3: to the American people.

50
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 2: It's infuriating, really, Bradley.

51
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:59,079
Speaker 4: Are the Republicans getting the messaging across the board that listen,

52
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 4: we want to open this up, but we need sixty

53
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,119
Speaker 4: votes and we need a little help from the Democrats.

54
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 4: I know that if you look at the information, people

55
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:11,520
Speaker 4: with common sense, two eyes in a functioning brain can

56
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,520
Speaker 4: see that this is because of the Democrats. But is

57
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:17,960
Speaker 4: that messaging getting across to the people that work at

58
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 4: the airports, the people that are air traffic controllers. Are

59
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,639
Speaker 4: they viewing this as a Democrat shutdown?

60
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:26,520
Speaker 2: That's a good question.

61
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 3: And I haven't seen any polling directly aimed towards these

62
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 3: federal employees. But look, when you have these airline groups

63
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 3: and others industry type groups who are coming out saying,

64
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 3: Democrats end the shutdown. Take the Republican cr let's open

65
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 3: up the government. That suggests to me that their employees

66
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 3: probably feel the same way the Democrats have had very

67
00:03:55,880 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 3: nebulous back and forth request on what their actually looking

68
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 3: to get out of this. It's very clearly a messaging

69
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 3: shut down for them, whereas the Republicans have had a

70
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 3: very clear, concise, easy to understand ask open the government

71
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 3: with a cr that funds the government at Biden era levels.

72
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 3: That's very simple, and I would like to think that

73
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 3: most of these federal employees can wrap their minds around

74
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,279
Speaker 3: that and feel that this is a Democrat shutdown.

75
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,960
Speaker 1: Bright Bart Politics Enator Bradley Jay here in the Hammer

76
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 1: of Nigel show talking about the longest government shutdown in

77
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:38,920
Speaker 1: US history? Are there any Democrats besides Fetterman in the

78
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 1: Senate that are kind of wishy washy wobbly on this

79
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,680
Speaker 1: thinking about voting the other way and opening the government

80
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 1: back up.

81
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 3: Well, here, let me break down the numbers very very quickly.

82
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:53,120
Speaker 3: They're fifty three Republican senators. Fifty two of them have

83
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,359
Speaker 3: supported the supported.

84
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 2: Ending the shutdown. Ran Paul's out there doing his own thing.

85
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:03,919
Speaker 3: Three Democrat senators Veutterman, Cortes Masdo and Angus King have

86
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 3: voted with Republicans.

87
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:07,160
Speaker 2: That's fifty five.

88
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,719
Speaker 3: You've got to get sixty votes to break a filibuster.

89
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 3: So despite all these Democrat senators who want to be

90
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,680
Speaker 3: president and who are so far left wing and don't

91
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 3: care about the damage that they're inflicting, we only need

92
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 3: five more Democrat senators to break this filibuster.

93
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:27,599
Speaker 2: That's totally possible.

94
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:32,080
Speaker 3: I think with the success that Democrats had, which wasn't surprising,

95
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 3: but with the success that Democrats had Tuesday, a lot

96
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 3: of these maybe more moderate Democrat senators, relatively moderate, were

97
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,480
Speaker 3: kind of boxed in whereas they couldn't be seen as

98
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 3: caving to Republicans so quickly after an electoral victory for Democrats.

99
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 3: I think that pushed any kind of a resolution back

100
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 3: probably into next week. But I've got to think that

101
00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 3: eventually the five six seven, you know, they only need

102
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 3: five Democrat senators who are ready to get back to

103
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,240
Speaker 3: business as usual, will eventually come to the table.

104
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 4: Breitbarton Deputy Politics editor Bradley Jay with us here on

105
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 4: The Hammer and Nigel Show. Bradley, let's talk about that election.

106
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 4: Was that the end of the Joe Biden style Democrat?

107
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 4: I mean, don't even worry about the Clinton style Democrat.

108
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,840
Speaker 4: He died a long time ago. Is this such a

109
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:31,280
Speaker 4: new time for the Democrat Party where the socialists that

110
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,920
Speaker 4: have New York City's Mayor's Office AOC, one of their

111
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:40,040
Speaker 4: biggest fundraisers and flamethrowers leading the charge. Is this a

112
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 4: new style of Democrat? Is the even radical Joe Biden

113
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 4: style Democrat not enough anymore?

114
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 2: I think it was.

115
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:53,359
Speaker 3: This was the closing of a chapter or book of

116
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 3: the Democrat Party of yesteryear. The dynamics of our two

117
00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 3: party system have changed these The wealthy elites are now

118
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 3: firmly voting Democrat, whereas blue collar working Americans, who for

119
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 3: so long Democrats bread and butter their base, are now

120
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 3: voting with Republicans. In the America First coalitions that Donald

121
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 3: Trump has assembled, it's really a different time. And even

122
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 3: though Mom Donnie won, if you look at some of

123
00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 3: these other races across the country, in New York, Virginia,

124
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 3: a lot of these Democrats, even if they were super

125
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 3: partisan and super left wing, were doing their best to

126
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:38,960
Speaker 3: hugh to the center and try to paint themselves as

127
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 3: moderates and pragmatists. They could do that without a firm leader,

128
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 3: without a clear leader of the Democrat Party nationally, that's

129
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 3: not going to be the case in the minterms.

130
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:51,720
Speaker 2: Looking ahead next year, the.

131
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 3: Leader of the Democrat Party far and away is going

132
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 3: to be Zoron, Mom Donnie. None of these Democrats like

133
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 3: span Berger and my Nike, Chryl and Jersey are going

134
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 3: to be able to claim, well, I'm not one of

135
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 3: those Democrats because it's going to be very clear what

136
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:11,120
Speaker 3: the Democrat Party has run to. Now, that doesn't mean

137
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 3: that Republicans can just can rely on that and that

138
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,240
Speaker 3: everything will go well. Republicans will have to do what

139
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 3: Republicans are not good at doing. That's being on the

140
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 3: offensive right, messaging well, but you're exactly right. This is

141
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 3: a new day and it's a new Democrat Party and

142
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,640
Speaker 3: it presents a lot of opportunities for Republicans, but they've

143
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 3: got to take advantage of it, and that's not something

144
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 3: Republicans are good at doing.

145
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 4: And listen, while we look at socialism as something that

146
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:42,600
Speaker 4: should be found in between two porto lets, for whatever reason,

147
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 4: the leaders that they've got out there, Mom Dommi and

148
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,559
Speaker 4: AOC super charismatic.

149
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:50,800
Speaker 2: They're going to try to make this thing sound.

150
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 4: Like it's super fun, super awesome, free, fast and free.

151
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 4: They're gonna be passing out free stuff left and right.

152
00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 4: It's up to the Republicans to be able to counter that.

153
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 4: And you're so right, Bradley, that's never been their strong suit.

154
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 2: Candidates matter, and consultants matter.

155
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 3: Everyone associated with the Virginia races in Republicans should be blackballed.

156
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 3: Winsom Earl Sears, she never once articulated what she was.

157
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 3: She never embraced America first. Look, the new Republican coalition

158
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 3: is an American First coalition. If all these neocons who

159
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 3: were working behind the scenes to push candidates like Winsom

160
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,960
Speaker 3: Earl ses Sears and to undermine jd vance, you've seen

161
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 3: that a lot this week. These neocons need to understand

162
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:40,040
Speaker 3: that the coalition that the neocons bring to the table

163
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:43,920
Speaker 3: is not a winning coalition. The numbers aren't there, the

164
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 3: voters aren't there. If a Republican wants to win on

165
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:50,320
Speaker 3: the national level or on the local level, it is

166
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,720
Speaker 3: under the America First banner that you're going to win.

167
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:57,079
Speaker 3: If these neocons to try to advance their own candidates,

168
00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 3: maybe you could do that twenty years ago, but you

169
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:03,960
Speaker 3: can now and win. Unfortunately, a lot of these conservative

170
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 3: inc type folks in Washington, a lot of these neocons.

171
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 3: They don't even care that much about winning. They just

172
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 3: want to be in charge. That is poison to Republicans electability.

173
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 3: And we have to end this infighting right now. We

174
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,160
Speaker 3: can't let these neocons try to take back control of

175
00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:26,160
Speaker 3: the party. The America First Movement needs to firmly assert

176
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 3: and claim its leadership of the party, and we need

177
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 3: to stamp out in all of these emerging fights.

178
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 2: Look, Democrats are motivated. They they they.

179
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 3: Legitimately think that Donald Trump is trying to murder them

180
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 3: in their sleep, right now, That's what Democrats have been

181
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:45,560
Speaker 3: saying for years.

182
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 2: This is serious business.

183
00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 3: We need to get back to fighting Democrats and not

184
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:50,959
Speaker 3: our own That was.

185
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:53,240
Speaker 1: A little bit down at the beginning of the week

186
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:56,360
Speaker 1: after these elections, but you know, Donald Trump didn't win

187
00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 1: in any of those states, and you know, the Democrats

188
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 1: are spiking in football, for sure. But this was not

189
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:05,200
Speaker 1: a referendum on Donald Trump and his supporters, was it

190
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 1: not at all?

191
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 3: And I hope that in I hope that these off

192
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 3: yer elections. First off, I hope that they give Democrats

193
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,840
Speaker 3: too much confidence. Yes, I also hope that we learned

194
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,000
Speaker 3: the lessons that we need to look twenty twenty four

195
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,120
Speaker 3: with a great victory, but it was over a year ago.

196
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:25,440
Speaker 3: We need to stay excited and motivated because the Democrats

197
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:27,719
Speaker 3: sure are. We've got to find a way to get

198
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:29,560
Speaker 3: these low propensity voters out.

199
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 2: We've got to.

200
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,480
Speaker 3: Talk about affordability, but even more so, I think we

201
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:37,440
Speaker 3: need to get back to talking about domestic issues. Most

202
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:40,200
Speaker 3: voters don't know where Hungary is and they don't care

203
00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 3: what's going on over there. We have to focus on

204
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:47,040
Speaker 3: what the American people care about. We've got to contrast

205
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:51,200
Speaker 3: what their lives would be like under Republicans and under Democrats,

206
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 3: and we have to get real America first candidates who

207
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:59,600
Speaker 3: actually embrace what the Republican Party is about.

208
00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:01,200
Speaker 2: That's what you've got to do.

209
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:04,760
Speaker 3: Especially in these off year and midterm elections where Republicans

210
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:08,959
Speaker 3: aren't good at getting folks to the polls. It's very simple.

211
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,640
Speaker 3: If you're a Republican candidate, you need to embrace the

212
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:14,320
Speaker 3: Republican agenda.

213
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:18,679
Speaker 4: Breitbart Deputy politics editor Bradley Jay check out his work

214
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:22,160
