Speaker 1: Nothing says everything is going super well for the political left.
Speaker 1: Nothing says everything is going super well. That's not what
Speaker 1: I wanted. Nothing says, as things repeat themselves, everything is
Speaker 1: going super well for Tony Tony Katz today, guys a pleasure.
Speaker 1: Sorry about that.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: Nothing says everything is going super well for the political left.
Speaker 1: Like Joe Scarborough on MS NOW screaming at Democrats.
Speaker 3: But please, I don't need people telling me, oh, you
Speaker 3: have to just turn a blind eye to people saying
Speaker 3: that women getting rate on October seventh didn't matter in
Speaker 3: the grand scheme of things that no Americans aren't going
Speaker 3: to support that.
Speaker 1: This is not about me.
Speaker 3: This is about the Democrats once again fumbling.
Speaker 4: The football on the two yard line when they have
Speaker 4: a chance to make great gains but being so woke.
Speaker 4: I don't know if you want to call it woke one,
Speaker 4: woke two, or woke three, but being too woke to
Speaker 4: call out the obvious.
Speaker 3: I swear to God, it's really it's crazy. But we're
Speaker 3: even having this conversation.
Speaker 1: He's yelling, and I think he's yelling because he understands
Speaker 1: that the madness is coming from inside the house and
Speaker 1: it's going to cost them the midterms. Now I'm gonna
Speaker 1: dig into this in a little bit what the numbers
Speaker 1: say versus what the reality says. But what is he
Speaker 1: talking about? Woke one, woke two, woke three, So glad
Speaker 1: you woke? Asked? This was alexandri A Cassio Cortez. She
Speaker 1: was on with Jonathan Carl on ABC. And it should
Speaker 1: be understood that this is, I believe, the first time
Speaker 1: she has done a sit down TV interview, network interview.
Speaker 1: I think in two years, you understand that she sees
Speaker 1: herself and it can't have been two years, could have
Speaker 1: been two years. She sees herself as a presidential contender.
Speaker 1: There's a twenty twenty eight conversation about alexandri Acasio Cortez.
Speaker 1: There's a Senate a conversation. She could run against Chuck
Speaker 1: Schumer and send him packing. That much I believe could happen.
Speaker 1: I think the presidency thing is still kind of dreaming,
Speaker 1: which is to say, a dream for her, a nightmare
Speaker 1: for the rest of us. But she said this, She's
Speaker 1: talking to Jonathan Carl on ABC and she said this,
Speaker 1: by the.
Speaker 5: Way to quick definitional thing, What in your mind is
Speaker 5: the difference between socialism and communism.
Speaker 1: Oh oh wait, wait, wait wait, I'll get to this.
Speaker 1: I will get to this, but I need to get
Speaker 1: to where she's talking about woke one Did you or
Speaker 1: did you not hear about this where she's talking about
Speaker 1: woke one point? Oh, it's a true thing. Here here
Speaker 1: she is right here, and I we'll play it all.
Speaker 1: I'll get to it. I promise. Let's start where we start.
Speaker 5: So you have Wisconsin coming up next, Francesca Hong, who
Speaker 5: is the Democratic Socialist of America supporting candidate for governor.
Speaker 5: Are you you haven't endorsed her? Are you going to No, I.
Speaker 2: Haven't endorsed in that race.
Speaker 6: My focus has been in winning back to Congress, winning
Speaker 6: back the House, and positioning ourselves to have the best
Speaker 6: chance possible to win the Senate. So I've been focused
Speaker 6: on those legislative What.
Speaker 5: Do you make of those controversial statements.
Speaker 2: I'm sure you've seen.
Speaker 5: I mean, she's you know that, the Thanksgiving dust up,
Speaker 5: she says, she doesn't you know, still believe that, but
Speaker 5: you know the abolished prisons, abolished police, which is also
Speaker 5: positions that have been taken by a lot of the
Speaker 5: progressive candidates who have won. How do you get around that. Yeah,
Speaker 5: not positions that are supported by right.
Speaker 6: I mean, I think that a lot of these races,
Speaker 6: even right now, they'll have a tendency to be nationalized.
Speaker 6: But these races ultimately are local, and all politics are local.
Speaker 6: My understanding is that is that Francesca Hang has made
Speaker 6: clear her present stances.
Speaker 1: To her life.
Speaker 2: She's moved away from right, She's moved away from it.
Speaker 6: And I have a local city councilman that has this.
Speaker 2: Saying woke one was crazy? Oh my.
Speaker 1: One? What is woke one? And what the bloody hell
Speaker 1: is woke two? What are we on woke two? Are
Speaker 1: we on woke three? Or woke four? I can't keep up. First,
Speaker 1: all politics are local is a very true statement. Right.
Speaker 1: We don't question whether or not we agree with the
Speaker 1: statement all politics are local. Was that Tip O'Neil who
Speaker 1: first said that?
Speaker 2: Is?
Speaker 1: Who where does the quote? I know where the quote come.
Speaker 1: I can picture it. But no one who's a member
Speaker 1: of the Democratic Socialist is dealing with any local anything.
Speaker 1: There are no local subjects, none whatsoever. Everything comes from
Speaker 1: on high, from a group of people who absolutely want
Speaker 1: to do away with the constitution, who wants to do
Speaker 1: away with prisons and when confronted, cannot answer a single
Speaker 1: question on their own. They can't. They don't have any capacity.
Speaker 1: If you speak to these people, you check out what
Speaker 1: they are really about. They cannot answer a question on
Speaker 1: their own, they don't have it. When confronted, they just
Speaker 1: fall apart. These socialists are amongst the most nutty and
Speaker 1: the most dangerous and the most ignorantly stupid group of
Speaker 1: people who ever existed. This is the co chair of
Speaker 1: the DSA in her own words.
Speaker 2: But we do believe in taxing the hell out of millionaires?
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, Well what is taxing the hell out of them? Mean? Yeah?
Speaker 2: You know again, I don't have like a solid but
Speaker 2: I think.
Speaker 1: But shouldn't you I mean, if you're the co chair,
Speaker 1: if you're the co chair of the DSA, shouldn't you
Speaker 1: be more specific than just taxing the hell out of something?
Speaker 1: What exactly do you mean?
Speaker 6: So again, it's democracy, right, and we have to look
Speaker 6: at what we need to spend and what we need.
Speaker 1: We don't want to depend on the existence.
Speaker 2: Of millionaires because that means people are still getting exploited.
Speaker 1: So so yeah, we need to look at what we
Speaker 1: need to pay for in the interim what sort of
Speaker 1: tax base we need for that to happen. And she
Speaker 1: doesn't know what tax the hell out of the means,
Speaker 1: because she's not willing to say, we're going to put
Speaker 1: a gun to their head and we're going to take everything.
Speaker 1: The millionaire cannot exist, because she just said, if the
Speaker 1: millionaire exists, somebody is being exploited. So we have to
Speaker 1: get rid of all the millionaires. Therefore, we have to
Speaker 1: take what is theirs, including putting a gun to their head,
Speaker 1: which is why we run to run for office so
Speaker 1: we can have the guns. We run for office so
Speaker 1: we can have the guns to put it to their head,
Speaker 1: to be able to take their money because they don't
Speaker 1: deserve it. That's the point of the DSA. That's not
Speaker 1: all politics are local. That is their entire agenda. In
Speaker 1: a nutshell they don't know. They can argue they don't
Speaker 1: know what they mean by tax the hell out of them,
Speaker 1: but what they mean is take everything. And after they
Speaker 1: get the millionaires, they'll take down the seven hundred and
Speaker 1: fifty thousand airs, and then they'll take down the five
Speaker 1: hundred thousand airs, and then the fifty thousand airs. They
Speaker 1: will take all the money that's the goal. That's who
Speaker 1: they are. So is this now woke two point zero?
Speaker 1: And what in the world is she talking about with
Speaker 1: woke one point zh woke one point oh? Notice what
Speaker 1: she's trying to do in this conversation. Notice what she
Speaker 1: is trying to say in this conversation about woke. Let
Speaker 1: me play this for are you again for the people
Speaker 1: in the cheap seats in communist.
Speaker 6: I think to me the fundamental difference.
Speaker 1: She's saying that woke one point zero was yesterday, Now
Speaker 1: we're on to today. Why aren't you focused on today?
Speaker 1: That's the argument. Let's go back and listen to it
Speaker 1: one more time.
Speaker 6: Her present stances to her moved away from right.
Speaker 2: She's moved away from it.
Speaker 6: And I have a local city councilman that has this
Speaker 6: saying Woke one was crazy, And I think that what's important.
Speaker 1: Is and why is she smiling and laughing about it?
Speaker 1: She was part of it. What is with these radicalized
Speaker 1: communists and their constance smiling while they look aggressively to
Speaker 1: take your rights in life from you? These people are
Speaker 1: creepy as can be. Mom, Donnie's always smiling as he's
Speaker 1: talking about ending a Western civilization. Woke one. You see,
Speaker 1: so if you're still talking about those things, oh, you're
Speaker 1: living in the past. Why are you talking about what
Speaker 1: happened yesterday? We're on to today. Why are you living
Speaker 1: in the past. Why are you re litigating that?
Speaker 2: Move on?
Speaker 1: Tell them to move on from January sixth Our point
Speaker 1: is that we can't move on from Anthony Fauci. We
Speaker 1: just got the proof that he lied. You want me
Speaker 1: to move on. He's a liar and a fraud. Why
Speaker 1: isn't he in jail? He ruined lives? Move on from
Speaker 1: Woke one point zero. You mean during the George Floyd
Speaker 1: riots where you burned businesses to the ground, you destroyed lives,
Speaker 1: people got killed, and now we're supposed to be like,
Speaker 1: oh whatever, We're on to the new stuff. The new stuff.
Speaker 1: The old stuff was so damn murderous. What new stuff?
Speaker 1: These people? These people are horrifying in every way. You're
Speaker 1: not wrong, Woke one point zero. She's trying to do
Speaker 1: away with the past while positioning herself as a leader.
Speaker 1: The Democratic Socialists are enable or incapable of explaining their positions.
Speaker 1: I mean, this goes back to where we started. You
Speaker 1: try and get a cossio Cortes to explain the difference
Speaker 1: between a communists and a socialist.
Speaker 5: By the way, just a quick definitional thing. What in
Speaker 5: your mind is the difference between socialism and communism?
Speaker 6: I think, to me, the fundamental differences. I mean, there's
Speaker 6: there's many. One prevailing one is democracy. And I believe
Speaker 6: that democratic socialists are fundamentally pro democracy. And we believe
Speaker 6: in the ballot.
Speaker 1: Box fundamentally pro democracy. Let's take they are fundamentally pro democracy,
Speaker 1: so they say as opposed to the communist Can I
Speaker 1: ask if anybody believes that, if they were pro democracy,
Speaker 1: how come they're so supportive of working with the Islamists.
Speaker 1: Who doesn't believe in democracy at all? And never mind
Speaker 1: that all the socialism always leads to communism, which has
Speaker 1: nothing to do with democracy. What possibly is she discussing here?
Speaker 1: Who does this actually attract? Well, it attracts the people
Speaker 1: who already believe, certainly might attract the twenty year old
Speaker 1: this is what we're up against. But this is Wilson,
Speaker 1: what America is seeing, and they seem to be to
Speaker 1: the point that Joe Scarborough was making. Turning against this
Speaker 1: is some maddening talk. We're going to further break this
Speaker 1: down and explain exactly how rough it's going to be
Speaker 1: for them in the midterm going down this road that's
Speaker 1: coming up. Keep it here, guys. I'm Tony Katz, and
Speaker 1: this is Tony Katz today
