First, I was all women, 178 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 5: so just from what I've seen, okay, it was all women. 179 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 5: And it was either individuals that look incredibly unhealthy, or 180 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:43,599 Speaker 5: it was moms complaining. 181 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:43,960 Speaker 1: About their kids. 182 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:46,319 Speaker 5: And yet they were shooting videos in cars where you 183 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 5: can clearly see these are really nice rides, and they 184 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 5: were dressed really, really well. 185 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: So again it just raises questions on both accounts. In 186 00:08:57,800 --> 00:08:58,320 Speaker 1: my opinion. 187 00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:01,479 Speaker 6: The statistic that I read was about forty million Americans 188 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 6: are on Snap benefits. 189 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 1: I don't know if that's true, But here's the deal. 190 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 6: Snap benefits are meant for people down on their luck 191 00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:15,559 Speaker 6: or between work or really have just gotten a raw 192 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 6: deal in this period of life. And instead what stamp 193 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 6: benefits are used for, Like any welfare program. 194 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 1: They're just totally abused. People just completely. 195 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 6: Rely on them without the prospect of having a job 196 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:31,320 Speaker 6: or trying to get yourself in a better position. 197 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:33,719 Speaker 1: So, like I want to draw a distinction that like, 198 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 1: do Snap. 199 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 6: Benefits serve a benefit, absolutely, but just like any other program, 200 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,000 Speaker 6: they are abused relentlessly. 201 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 8: And it comes from Governor Walls at the top in 202 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 8: Minnesota where he brags. You saw him do that press 203 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 8: conference at the food brink. He's bragging about how many 204 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:50,679 Speaker 8: people are. 205 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 9: On Snap benefits. It shouldn't be something for him to 206 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 9: brag about. 207 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 8: It should be a temporary assistance that we help people 208 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 8: then get off of well. 209 00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 1: And I wish that there was more, and I understand 210 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 1: right now there can't be. 211 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:06,839 Speaker 5: And perhaps one of the benefits of talking about this 212 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:10,839 Speaker 5: issue and the concern over these benefits expiring will be 213 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 5: what you mentioned, Catherine, and the fact that you're right 214 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 5: when you look at it from the from the state level, 215 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,839 Speaker 5: but at the national level, some forty three million people. 216 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 1: On these on these benefits. 217 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 5: I mean that should be an incredibly relevant talking point 218 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 5: moving forward that that number should be worked out to 219 00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 5: be reduced in any right, in any in any way possible. 220 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,440 Speaker 5: Let's go back to the iHeartRadio app on talkbacks brought 221 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 5: to you by Lindahl Realty.

The S and SNAP stands 233 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:16,559 Speaker 4: for supplemental that is supposed to be a backup to 234 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,959 Speaker 4: other income that they have that they can use to 235 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,679 Speaker 4: spend on their food stuffs. The fact that we have 236 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 4: so many people who are absolutely and utterly apparently dependent 237 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 4: on this for survival is something that we should be addressing, 238 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:31,959 Speaker 4: not the fact that they're not getting that check. Why 239 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,680 Speaker 4: do so many people need a check to feed themselves? 240 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 4: Believe it, But we got to figure it out. 241 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 5: So we have some audio to share coming up in 242 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 5: just a moment from House Speaker Mike Johnson regarding the shutdown. 243 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: He held a press conference, as he's been doing every 244 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 1: single day. 245 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 5: President Doald Trump didn't say yesterday that it was time 246 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 5: to get rid of the sentence still abuster custom to 247 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 5: bypass to bypass the Democrat roadblock during the ongoing government shutdown, 248 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 5: and I'm not sure if that's. 249 00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 1: A good idea. 250 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,720 Speaker 5: Well, yeah, we'll talk about it come up.

He did 264 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 10: the right thing, and he went on the floor of 265 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 10: the Senate and he given him passion speech of why 266 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 10: we could never inflict all this pain on the American people. 267 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 10: He meant it from his heart, and he was consistent 268 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 10: in what he had done over his forty four years 269 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:54,119 Speaker 10: in Congress, always. 270 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:54,960 Speaker 1: Voting to fund the government. 271 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 10: But when he did the right thing in March, he 272 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 10: received an onslaught criticism from the far left base and 273 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,959 Speaker 10: the Democrat Party. He almost lost his job. Many of 274 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 10: you wrote about it. He was in jeopardy of not 275 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,959 Speaker 10: winning his next reelection. That's how serious it was. So 276 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:15,199 Speaker 10: Chuck Schumer got a bunch of consultants and staff in 277 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 10: a back room and they concocted a plan, a political stunt, 278 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 10: and they determined right then that the next time there 279 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 10: was a funding measure, no matter how meritorious and no 280 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 10: matter how much it would cause pain to the American people, 281 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 10: that he would vote against it. He would show a 282 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:32,880 Speaker 10: fight to President Trump so he could save his political skin. 283 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 1: That's exactly what happened. 284 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 10: He did this so he could prove to his base 285 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:40,480 Speaker 10: that he's show in a fight. And as a result 286 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 10: of this charade, he has brought the Democrats to their 287 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 10: lowest point in decades. Literally, the Democratic Party has its 288 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 10: lowest approval rating. Democrats in Congress of their lowest approval 289 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,080 Speaker 10: rating ever in the history of Poland. 290 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 5: I wanted to share that clip here on Twin Cities 291 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 5: News Talk at AM eleven thirty one h three five FM, 292 00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 5: of course streaming on the iHeart Radio Apple'll get back 293 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 5: to more of your talkback comments coming up on a 294 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 5: Halloween Freedom Friday.

And studio on a Hallowe Freedom Friday, we 314 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 5: have Catherine Johnson from American Experiment, the American Experiment podcast. 315 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 2: Good morning. 316 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 1: Representative Max Rhymer is here. 317 00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 5: Hello, Hello, Akhim Walls be joining us coming up in 318 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:15,480 Speaker 5: about ten minutes from now. Trump mentioned yesterday going nuclear 319 00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 5: to end the shutdown, time to get rid of the 320 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:21,440 Speaker 5: sentence filibuster, custom to bypass the Democrat roadblock and the 321 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 5: ongoing government shutdown. 322 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm gonna say no, Yeah, I don't think we 323 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 1: should be doing that. 324 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 5: Trump is one to go and offer up options and solutions, 325 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 5: but eliminating the filibuster over this particular issue that we're 326 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 5: dealing with, in my view, is only going to end 327 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 5: up causing problems down down the line. 328 00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 6: I think history tells us that. And when you look 329 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 6: at what happened in twenty thirteen with then Senator Harry Reid, 330 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 6: Harry renuked the filibuster option for all nominations except the 331 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 6: Supreme Court and Mitch McConnell, who I don't particularly like, 332 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 6: but back then he said, Democrats will live to see 333 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 6: the day that they regret this. What happened since Trump 334 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 6: got elected in twenty sixteen was Trump and the Trump 335 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 6: administration completely remade the court system with just a one 336 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 6: vote majority. And I know that Democrats are probably kicking 337 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 6: themselves for doing that for nominations. If we go down 338 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 6: this path, and I think Trump is kind of being 339 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:27,640 Speaker 6: baited into it, I gotta be honest, I think this 340 00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 6: might be the ultimate outcome that Democrats hope for. If 341 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 6: we nuke the filibuster option in the same way that 342 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 6: Democrats did in twenty thirteen, I think. 343 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:38,480 Speaker 1: We will live to see the day that we regret that. 344 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:39,240 Speaker 10: Yeah. 345 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 8: I do wonder though, what the off ramp is because 346 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:45,440 Speaker 8: I don't see any the Republicans don't seem like they 347 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 8: want to back down from their stands. 348 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 9: And I don't think they should, but how I mean, would. 349 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 8: Also be extremely embarrassing for the Democrats now to agree 350 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 8: to the terms of the CR. So I'm curious what 351 00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 8: the off ramp will be. 352 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 1: To that I want to get. 353 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:04,440 Speaker 5: I want to get to this before I do a 354 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:08,040 Speaker 5: bit of breaking news. Oh boy, We'll provide details coming 355 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 5: up after the break. I need to spend some time 356 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 5: looking at the story. But apparently the FBI just to 357 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:20,080 Speaker 5: announced this morning that they have prevented a potential Halloween 358 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 5: terrorist attack. 359 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:24,640 Speaker 1: So the news just broke. 360 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:28,760 Speaker 5: And again we'll spend some time during the next commercial 361 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 5: break of getting to the details of this and then 362 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:32,920 Speaker 5: share it with you coming up in just a moment. 363 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:33,960 Speaker 1: But again, this just broke. 364 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:37,919 Speaker 5: A chilling Halloween terror plot to unleash chaos in Democrat 365 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:42,359 Speaker 5: run state uncovered by the FBI, as announced by Director 366 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:43,440 Speaker 5: Cash Betel this morning. 367 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:46,480 Speaker 1: So I've been speculating all week. 368 00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:52,840 Speaker 5: About the possibility at an eleventh hour Democrat you know, 369 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:56,200 Speaker 5: basically hail Mary, where they joined the GOP, they passed 370 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:59,240 Speaker 5: the clean CR that they voted for in the past, 371 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 5: that Biden's off on and they would do this to 372 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 5: try to paint themselves as the heroes. Now, I never 373 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:07,199 Speaker 5: seriously believe that they would end up doing the right thing. 374 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:10,160 Speaker 5: I think Democrats are more inclined to one is, sow 375 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,359 Speaker 5: division and chaos than they are to actually go and 376 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 5: step up and do the right thing. 377 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:16,400 Speaker 1: And this doesn't end up helping. Like, say, next week, 378 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:17,320 Speaker 1: you're not going to. 379 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 5: Get a lot of people heading out to go vote 380 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 5: over goodwill if suddenly now the Democrats go and vote 381 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 5: for this to keep the shutdown from taking place. I 382 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 5: believe it's even less likely that Democrats will go and 383 00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:33,520 Speaker 5: vote for a CR today given the anecdotal evidence that 384 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:34,320 Speaker 5: people now. 385 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys have seen this or not, 386 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 1: I've seen dozens of videos. 387 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:41,639 Speaker 5: Of people either encouraging or saying that they plan on 388 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:46,240 Speaker 5: going out and robbing stores in protests of the suspension 389 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 5: of the snap benefits. You know, and again, perhaps unintended, 390 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:52,680 Speaker 5: the Left has an opportunity to continue to sow chaos 391 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:57,960 Speaker 5: if people start feeling justified in turning the thievery in 392 00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:00,680 Speaker 5: their anger. And again, I've watched dozens and dozens of 393 00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 5: viral videos that have emerged of people encouraging others to 394 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 5: begin robbing stores if they don't get their SNAP benefits. Now, 395 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,160 Speaker 5: if this happens, I'm of the opinion of the majority 396 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,160 Speaker 5: of those that would go out and do such things 397 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 5: are probably not Snap recipiencies. They're typically your Antifa type, 398 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 5: just looking. 399 00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 1: For a reason. Right, looks like the George Floyd Riots. 400 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 5: Rioting, looking to take advantage of the anger created by 401 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 5: by Democrats. But this was an angle that I had 402 00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 5: not expected that would emerge, and it has. And so 403 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 5: if this continues to gain traction, I don't think there's 404 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:34,919 Speaker 5: any chance that the Democrats would go and sign off 405 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:36,720 Speaker 5: on this, because this is the kind of thing that 406 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:41,359 Speaker 5: would continue to again, so division hurt President Donald Trump, 407 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,120 Speaker 5: probably force him to make moves to try to shore 408 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 5: up security, which only benefits them further as they continue 409 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:50,440 Speaker 5: to push back on law enforcement doing that in major 410 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:52,000 Speaker 5: metropolitan areas around the country. 411 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 8: Yeah. 412 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:55,480 Speaker 6: I find it fascinating the rapid pivot that keeps happening 413 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:58,359 Speaker 6: with Democrats as they try to recapture the narrative on 414 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:02,440 Speaker 6: this shutdown, because it first it was our troops aren't 415 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:05,439 Speaker 6: going to get paid, and then it was well, our 416 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:08,240 Speaker 6: lifelong bureaucrats and our law enforcement are not going to 417 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 6: get paid. And then those groups didn't seem sympathetic enough 418 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 6: to the general public, so then they pivoted to children 419 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 6: are going to starve, and all along the way, Donald 420 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 6: Trump has gained in polling and Democrats are being they 421 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:26,919 Speaker 6: have a plurality or a majority blame for this shutdown. 422 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 6: So I think they're kind of grasping its straws. But 423 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 6: the long game to me again seems to be I 424 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:37,639 Speaker 6: think we're getting baited right now into ending the filibuster. 425 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 6: I think that might be the ultimate goal in all 426 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 6: of this. 427 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:43,680 Speaker 1: And if Chuck Schumer. 428 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 6: Has to take the fall for this, I think he's 429 00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:49,439 Speaker 6: probably willing to because he's going to lose to AOC 430 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:51,320 Speaker 6: in the next election anyway. 431 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,680 Speaker 5: And I wonder too that depending on like I would think, 432 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 5: if you keep looking at deadlines like I keep looking at, okay, 433 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 5: could this end the shutdown? But this cause Democrats to 434 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 5: go and finally get on board with the cr So 435 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 5: you look at the potential of individuals going on and 436 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,160 Speaker 5: causing chaos and stores, and then you look at next 437 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 5: week's elections, and then you think, okay, well, maybe after 438 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:17,680 Speaker 5: next week's elections, they'll, you know, once we know the 439 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:20,200 Speaker 5: outcome of what that is, they'll make a decision. But 440 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 5: then I go on, I think, you know what, though, 441 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 5: they got Thanksgiving right around the corner, and it's another 442 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:26,879 Speaker 5: argument that they can make right try to continue to 443 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:28,400 Speaker 5: keep their base upset. 444 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 1: I mean, we're already reaching record. I though, have we 445 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:31,959 Speaker 1: passed their record now? 446 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 5: I think it was thirty four days was the longest shutdown, 447 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 5: and I know we were at twenty nine earlier this week, 448 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 5: so we got to be. 449 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 6: We're probably pretty close Trump's first term in twenty nineteen 450 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 6: or something like that. 451 00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:44,720 Speaker 1: I think we had a longer shutdown than this too. 452 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 8: I do think they're miscalculating a little bit. I think 453 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:50,000 Speaker 8: that the Republicans are winning the war in terms of 454 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:52,440 Speaker 8: marketing for the most part. Of course, the base is 455 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:54,760 Speaker 8: going to stick with the Democrats. But I think Republicans 456 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 8: are doing a lot better in this than the Democrats 457 00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 8: are giving them credit for. 458 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 6: Well, rest assured, I have done my I signed on 459 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 6: to a strongly worded letter with sixty of my legislative 460 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 6: colleagues asking Senator Tina Smith and Amy klobash Art to 461 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:08,359 Speaker 6: please get back. 462 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:10,880 Speaker 1: And vote for the thing they've voted for. You done nicely. 463 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 1: I've done my part nicely done. 464 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 5: That's coold, all right? What are your thoughts?

Also ended 665 00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 5: up creating a fictitious individual who passed away that may 666 00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 5: have donated to his campaign. 667 00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 1: You actually found the obituary, yes, and it was accurate, And. 668 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 6: I gotta be honest, I was nervous the rest of 669 00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:50,600 Speaker 6: the day that I found just some random person's obituary 670 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:53,160 Speaker 6: and we were laughing at it. But it turns out 671 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:58,080 Speaker 6: that this obituary was written by none other than Jonathan Weinhagen. 672 00:31:58,360 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 1: As a cover. 673 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:04,720 Speaker 5: Weinehagen reportedly created a sham consulting company named Synergy Partners 674 00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 5: that was owned by his alias, James Sullivan.

I'm just curious where your 835 00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:43,520 Speaker 5: thoughts are and how long this shutdown is going to 836 00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:45,239 Speaker 5: last and who wents to cavan first. 837 00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:48,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean this has all been a narrative war. Obviously. 838 00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:52,640 Speaker 3: The Democrats are all in potcumitted. They are lying on 839 00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:56,120 Speaker 3: such a level that like it actually makes COVID seem 840 00:39:56,320 --> 00:39:58,440 Speaker 3: relatively tame, the amount of lives that came forth. Like 841 00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:02,439 Speaker 3: they are just lying every single day. And I think 842 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:04,720 Speaker 3: that this is going to come down to today. Trump 843 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:08,800 Speaker 3: will probably release the emergency funds, which will you know, 844 00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:11,560 Speaker 3: direct the USDA to do that, which will provide at 845 00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:13,560 Speaker 3: least another thirty days of kicking in the canon. Then 846 00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:16,800 Speaker 3: I think you'll see an onslaught of President Trump addressing 847 00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:20,239 Speaker 3: this specifically. You know, President Trump this entire like last 848 00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:22,200 Speaker 3: two weeks has been super super busy trying to do 849 00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:26,920 Speaker 3: these trade deals and traveling across basically all across the country, 850 00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:29,799 Speaker 3: across the globe, i should say. And he was in China, 851 00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:31,680 Speaker 3: and he was in Korean and stuff like that. So 852 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:33,480 Speaker 3: I think that that had been his focus. But now 853 00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:35,400 Speaker 3: that he's back here, I think that's what's going to 854 00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:39,359 Speaker 3: happen today unless he can I guess massage the idea 855 00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:42,279 Speaker 3: of nuking the filibuster, But then the question is what 856 00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:45,520 Speaker 3: happens going forward, and I think that the American people 857 00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:48,960 Speaker 3: most likely are going to rightly blame the Democrats and 858 00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,239 Speaker 3: Trump can come in and seem like a hero that 859 00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:53,560 Speaker 3: was able to extend these SNAP benefits and that it's 860 00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:56,360 Speaker 3: Democrats that are holding out because they want illegal aliens 861 00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:59,279 Speaker 3: to be able to receive basically these ACA credits. But 862 00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:01,480 Speaker 3: that's where I'm at. I think that Trump's going to 863 00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:03,600 Speaker 3: come in and he's going to kind of last minute 864 00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:06,000 Speaker 3: save the day and take the victory lapse and then 865 00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:09,160 Speaker 3: really try and push the narrative because that emergency fund 866 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:11,680 Speaker 3: only is going to fund SNAP, not even fully for 867 00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:14,239 Speaker 3: a month. They'll have to reduce the benefits, but it 868 00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:16,880 Speaker 3: will funder for thirty days. But you're gonna need Democrats, 869 00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:19,040 Speaker 3: So like, what would be their reason to change their position? 870 00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:23,480 Speaker 3: There is man unless there's you know, Republicans capitulate, which 871 00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 3: they're not going to. This is like who's going to 872 00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:28,200 Speaker 3: blink first? And I just think at the end of 873 00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:30,440 Speaker 3: the day, whoever owns the narrative and who has the 874 00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:33,280 Speaker 3: most negative consequences politically is going to be who blinks. 875 00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:37,720 Speaker 5: It's interesting because I've seen some commentary overnight from prominent 876 00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:42,280 Speaker 5: doing nothing with my fingers Democrat commentators wherein they've actually 877 00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:46,200 Speaker 5: been honest about what's taking place, is saying the Republicans 878 00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:49,640 Speaker 5: could open up the government again if they just negotiated 879 00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:52,880 Speaker 5: with Democrats on the ACA. They've actually gone and moved 880 00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:57,040 Speaker 5: away from this idea that the Republicans control everything and 881 00:41:57,080 --> 00:41:58,920 Speaker 5: they could open it back up. So they're starting to 882 00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 5: be honest, and is probably the biggest crack in their 883 00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:06,960 Speaker 5: argument is the fact that they're actually not lying about 884 00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:09,480 Speaker 5: it now and exposing it because that argument isn't going 885 00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:10,560 Speaker 5: to isn't going to work. 886 00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:13,200 Speaker 1: Elections have consequences, bad too bad. 887 00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:16,399 Speaker 5: So sad, you know, the Republicans one last year, there's 888 00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:19,080 Speaker 5: no way that Democrats would be negotiating on the opposite 889 00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:21,839 Speaker 5: end of things. So you can argue that you want 890 00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:25,279 Speaker 5: Republicans to go and negotiate with Democrats, but they don't 891 00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:27,120 Speaker 5: have to. But the fact that they've been admitting that 892 00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:30,360 Speaker 5: to me, has been a definite sort of shift in 893 00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:32,680 Speaker 5: the tone over the course of the past twenty four 894 00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:33,600 Speaker 5: to forty eight hours or so. 895 00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:35,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, and one of the things that I think is 896 00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:37,600 Speaker 3: important is that we have to push back against this narrative. 897 00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:41,319 Speaker 3: So I've created a handful of different images that I've 898 00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:44,920 Speaker 3: shared like mass over and over again, so much to 899 00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:47,280 Speaker 3: the point that now my algorithm on x is basically 900 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:50,920 Speaker 3: all Democrat lawmakers because I'm replying to their lives. And 901 00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:52,719 Speaker 3: so I have one where it's President Trump where he 902 00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:55,360 Speaker 3: is like shouting from the rooftop, you know, when he 903 00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:58,080 Speaker 3: was doing like that tour, and it's like Democrats voted 904 00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:01,919 Speaker 3: thirteen times to who you know, not open the government. 905 00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:04,719 Speaker 1: And to cut off snap benefits. Right, I've made a video. 906 00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:07,480 Speaker 3: I even made an AI generated image of like a 907 00:43:07,680 --> 00:43:11,360 Speaker 3: racially ambiguous child holding a sign that said Senate Democrats 908 00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:14,480 Speaker 3: voted thirteen times to starve children. Because this is like, 909 00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:17,640 Speaker 3: we need to push back against that narrative so hard, 910 00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:19,680 Speaker 3: and you do it in a funny way or whatever, 911 00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:22,800 Speaker 3: but ultimately that's what this is about. In my opinion, 912 00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:25,839 Speaker 3: who wins the narrative war, and if Republicans can win 913 00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:30,440 Speaker 3: and people blame the Democrats, Democrats are basically. 914 00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:31,040 Speaker 1: On their death spiral. 915 00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:35,320 Speaker 3: But it's hard because the legacy media is still pushing 916 00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:38,760 Speaker 3: that this is Republican shutdown, and it's just it's absurd 917 00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:40,759 Speaker 3: and I've seen but the question is what does the 918 00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:42,080 Speaker 3: average voter think. 919 00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:45,279 Speaker 5: All Right, we're gonna get to your talkbacks coming up. 920 00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:47,040 Speaker 5: Actually have a few that will play here as we 921 00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:49,880 Speaker 5: close out hour two on a Halloween Freedom Friday.

I don't know how AK 933 00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:30,480 Speaker 12: did it, but I thought it was spot on. 934 00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:34,760 Speaker 1: I mean that that was Governor perfect. 935 00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:36,520 Speaker 3: He must have really practiced that. 936 00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:42,239 Speaker 1: AK.
