Speaker 1: What's up and welcome. This is the Rogue Recap and
Speaker 1: you are here with your host, Linda McLaughlin. She is pissed, off, outraged,
Speaker 1: and has zero patients with what seems to be an
Speaker 1: epidemic of entitlement and stupidity. Here we talk about all
Speaker 1: the things the other shows just don't or won't touch.
Speaker 1: Make sure to like and subscribe to our podcast so
Speaker 1: you never miss an episode.
Speaker 2: Well, Hello, Happy Tuesday. It's February third, and we are
Speaker 2: in the government shutdown appropriations and authorizations of the latest
Speaker 2: spending bill. It's been approved one point two trillion by
Speaker 2: the Senate, and now they want the House to say, hey, okay,
Speaker 2: everything's cool, let's just pass it. The problem is we
Speaker 2: don't have anything on the books for the Save Act,
Speaker 2: and this is our chance. You know, I tweeted out
Speaker 2: this morning, or I posted out this morning because it's
Speaker 2: x now not Twitter, but I put out this morning
Speaker 2: that I don't understand what the point of having control
Speaker 2: of the House, of the Senate, of the Supreme Court,
Speaker 2: of our executive branch. I don't get it if we're
Speaker 2: not going to use it. You know, we had seventeen
Speaker 2: Republicans vote with these Democrats the other day giving them
Speaker 2: this one point two trillion approval, and it has tons
Speaker 2: of shitt in there. It extends the Obamacare entitlements, it
Speaker 2: extends other healthcare benefits and welfare recipients. It gives welfare
Speaker 2: to illegal immigrants. I don't understand how you can give
Speaker 2: funding to illegal aliens as a member of the GOP.
Speaker 2: I mean, the reason why Americans put Donald Trump in
Speaker 2: office were It's really three reasons, and this is my opinion.
Speaker 2: I think it comes down to three things. Number one
Speaker 2: was to put America first, quite literally, bring industrialization back
Speaker 2: to the United States. Start making things here, start building
Speaker 2: things here, start exporting instead of importing. You know, our
Speaker 2: gross domestic product has suffered incredibly because we have been
Speaker 2: unable to mass produce things the way that China does
Speaker 2: with their illegal child labor. And that's the funny thing too,
Speaker 2: right we cry, these liberals are out there crying all
Speaker 2: the time about how they want to save the world.
Speaker 2: Go to freaking China. Go over there, go see what
Speaker 2: you're talking about. You think you got it so tough here,
Speaker 2: look at these poor kids working in factories and sweatshops,
Speaker 2: and then what happens We're bring I legal immigrants over here,
Speaker 2: and they get trafficked and sent into human trafficking, which
Speaker 2: basically goes into our meat packing plants, our factories and
Speaker 2: our warehouses, or they become trafficked and they become abused
Speaker 2: every single day. All right, I'm off on a tangent.
Speaker 2: But my point is there is so much pork, so
Speaker 2: much earmarking, so much lobbying. It's ridiculous. And here's the
Speaker 2: scary part. Did you hope he's not doing shit? I mean,
Speaker 2: Mike Johnson said today. I wanted to throw up in
Speaker 2: my mouth. Mike Johnson says today, Listen, we don't need
Speaker 2: to be playing games right now with government funding, asshole,
Speaker 2: we are not playing games. I am no, Mike Johnson fan.
Speaker 2: Let me be very clear. I don't get why on
Speaker 2: God's Green Earth you think the same act is playing games.
Speaker 2: If we do not have safe and secure elections, we
Speaker 2: are screwed because these assholes are gonna win in November
Speaker 2: and then we are going to see a lame duck
Speaker 2: president and President Trump he's not gonna be able to
Speaker 2: do anything. Quite frankly, he's barely able to do anything
Speaker 2: now because we've got so many damn rhinos in the
Speaker 2: House who I guess are on the take. I don't
Speaker 2: know why else they would approve so many things that
Speaker 2: have absolutely nothing to do with furthering the president's agenda. Now,
Speaker 2: the President wants to pass the bill because he doesn't
Speaker 2: want it to affect his overall jobs numbers and economic growth,
Speaker 2: which I understand. I respect where the president is coming from.
Speaker 2: I respect that he wants us to be a prosperous
Speaker 2: and thriving nation. However, I would rather have a government shutdown,
Speaker 2: even if it's for a week, and get the Save
Speaker 2: Act passed and actually have some balls for once than
Speaker 2: to capitulate yet again to the left. This is the
Speaker 2: real thing, you know. I'm looking at these senators, various senators.
Speaker 2: I really like, they're good people, and I'm watching them
Speaker 2: just say, okay, we'll just get it done. What why
Speaker 2: why are you doing that? What is the point of
Speaker 2: us being able to do what we need to do
Speaker 2: if we don't do it? And then there's all this
Speaker 2: confusion about the filibuster. So I did a show on
Speaker 2: this a few weeks ago, but I want to do
Speaker 2: it again. There's three different types of filibuster. The one
Speaker 2: that most of the strong GOP representatives like true conservatives
Speaker 2: are asking for, like Senator Mike Lee and Congressman Pauline A. Luna,
Speaker 2: they're asking to nuke the filibuster because what that does
Speaker 2: is it uses the Senate's option to enable a simple
Speaker 2: majority fifty one votes that eliminates the traditional sixty vote requirement.
Speaker 2: We don't have to have the cloture debate and force
Speaker 2: the vote and election, all this nonsense. It's a very
Speaker 2: drastic step, and obviously we you know, it sucks because
Speaker 2: then if like a minority party was to gain power,
Speaker 2: then we'd have to flip it back and say, gosh,
Speaker 2: I hope they don't use it, but honestly, I don't care.
Speaker 2: The Save Act is one thing I'm willing to take
Speaker 2: a risk on because we're not winning with Republicans in
Speaker 2: the House. We're not. So if we have the same
Speaker 2: result whether we have a Democrat or a Republican, the
Speaker 2: hell's the difference. Nook the damn Philip Buster, get the
Speaker 2: save AC passed so that we have the ability to
Speaker 2: clear our voter roles. Because we got a lot of
Speaker 2: dead people, we got a lot of fake people, we
Speaker 2: got one hundred and thirty people living in commercial locations
Speaker 2: in Georgia. By the way, that's illegal. You can't have
Speaker 2: a commercial residence or a commercial address as your residence
Speaker 2: in Georgia and vote. But somehow they had over one
Speaker 2: hundred and thirty of them in one location, which they
Speaker 2: just put out this morning. But we'll put that to
Speaker 2: the side, right We don't want to get lost in
Speaker 2: the details. Big picture, we have election fraud all over
Speaker 2: this country. Everybody knows that twenty twenty was a scam.
Speaker 2: Whether you believe it was a total scam or just
Speaker 2: a little bit scammy, you know, fine, you're on your
Speaker 2: own on that. But if there's anything elicit going on
Speaker 2: in our elections, you need to write the ship guys.
Speaker 2: I mean, we are going under here. We need to
Speaker 2: clear the voter rolls. We need voter ID. What a
Speaker 2: novel idea. When you come in to vote, you have
Speaker 2: a picture with your license, your passport, your passport card,
Speaker 2: whatever it is, your concealed carry. These are all federal,
Speaker 2: you know, federally issued forms of documentation to say you
Speaker 2: are who you are, and then they check the voter role.
Speaker 2: They make sure that everything squares up, and then you
Speaker 2: vote that way we don't have you know, Maria Gonzalez
Speaker 2: who just got here from Ecuador, voting seventeen times in
Speaker 2: four different counties because they don't ask for ID. Nobody
Speaker 2: thinks that that's a problem. And let me just say,
Speaker 2: people like Chuck Schumer, he's a real piece of shit.
Speaker 2: We've known he's a piece of shit for a long time.
Speaker 2: But for him to say that the Save Act is
Speaker 2: Jim Crow two point zero, Bro, that's disgusting. Are you
Speaker 2: trying to tell me that people that are not white
Speaker 2: are not able to get ID? Is that what you're
Speaker 2: telling me? Because I think that's an insult to people
Speaker 2: that are not white. I think that's a little nuts.
Speaker 2: They have ID to get welfare, they have ID to
Speaker 2: get federal housing, they have ID to get food stamps,
Speaker 2: they have IDA to get their new businesses started II Minneapolis,
Speaker 2: Somali fraud city. But you're telling me they can't have
Speaker 2: ID to go vote the most important thing that happens
Speaker 2: in our nation. There's no other country in the world
Speaker 2: that has no voter ID federal voting, just as a
Speaker 2: word to the wise, not one other country in the world.
Speaker 2: And why would democrats be so upset with people needing
Speaker 2: voter ID Why is that so upsetting? This is something
Speaker 2: that I just don't understand. If you have nothing to hide,
Speaker 2: and you have I have no secrets, and there's nothing
Speaker 2: wrong on your voter roles. You've been truthful and upfront
Speaker 2: the entire time. You're here to support the path of democracy,
Speaker 2: the right that we have endown by our founding fathers
Speaker 2: to vote. What the hell are you so upset? Why
Speaker 2: are you getting so pissed off? And then Speaker Johnson
Speaker 2: is saying, you know, I have objections. You know we
Speaker 2: want to save the Save Act, but you know we
Speaker 2: have to look at the reality of the numbers. And
Speaker 2: we pass the Save Act twice in the House, and
Speaker 2: we'll pass it again. But you know, this is a
Speaker 2: funding package right now, and I don't think we need
Speaker 2: to be playing games with government funding. We still have
Speaker 2: winter storms, we've got female we've got tsa true pay,
Speaker 2: and everything else wrapped in this. So we've got to
Speaker 2: get the job done. Well, let me tell you something, Johnson.
Speaker 2: If we vote for this and we give you all
Speaker 2: your funding for those very important departments and divisions of
Speaker 2: our government, we're also giving money to all of the
Speaker 2: things that kill the taxpayer, the welfare, the food stamps,
Speaker 2: the housing, the Obamacare extensions, the economic development, all these
Speaker 2: big words that mean one thing, misappropriation of funds on
Speaker 2: the backs of the taxpayers, because you didn't have the
Speaker 2: balls right now to stand up and say, hey, let's
Speaker 2: take a closer look at this. You know, a little
Speaker 2: pain now for a lot of game later. Get the
Speaker 2: Save Act passed. Oh and now they're saying, no, no, no.
Speaker 2: Fune has promised Pauline a Luna that he's definitely one
Speaker 2: hundred percent you know he's gonna bring the Save Act
Speaker 2: to the table. Oh my god, do you believe Fuon
Speaker 2: because I don't. I don't believe Foon. Fune is a
Speaker 2: bush heite. He is a Cheney guy. He is a Rhino.
Speaker 2: He's friends with McConnell, he's friends with Cornyn. He's been
Speaker 2: there too long. He's just like those assholes Collins and Murkowski,
Speaker 2: those two dumb broads. They need to go over and
Speaker 2: become Democrats already enough. Stop voting with the Democrats eighty
Speaker 2: percent of the time and look me in my face
Speaker 2: and tell me you're a Republican. You're not get out
Speaker 2: of the party. I'm so sick of it. This isn't
Speaker 2: a lifetime appointment. It's a job to serve the people.
Speaker 2: Guess what, I'm a person. You serve me, and you're
Speaker 2: fired when the midterms come. I promise you I would
Speaker 2: vote for a Democrat over Murkowski, Collins, Thoon's and Cornyn.
Speaker 2: You know why, because it's the same frickin thing. So
Speaker 2: we might as well just get rid of it. And
Speaker 2: I love our president, he's amazing, but I'm not for
Speaker 2: it unless we have something in writing from John Foon.
Speaker 2: And I'll even take it on X. I will use
Speaker 2: I will nuke the filibuster. I will use those tools.
Speaker 2: I will get done and I will make sure that
Speaker 2: we have everything that we need to get the Save
Speaker 2: Act past. Now, the other options, the other filibusters is
Speaker 2: a talking filipbuster. This is the typical way, right. It's
Speaker 2: like we're the Senator group of senators. They literally stand
Speaker 2: on the floor and they'll talk for like six days,
Speaker 2: just delay of vote, just a block a vote, because
Speaker 2: it means everybody has to be in session. Nobody can
Speaker 2: go away. They actually have to work, and it gets
Speaker 2: very annoying and they don't want to do it. So
Speaker 2: that works really well, but it's not as powerful as
Speaker 2: nuking the filibuster because it reduces that threshold to fifty one.
Speaker 2: We need that. It's so important, and I'm telling you
Speaker 2: right now, if we don't have it, we're doomed. If
Speaker 2: we don't get this Save Act done right now, if
Speaker 2: we don't start to do what we are supposed to do,
Speaker 2: we are in big trouble. And if fun says, oh, yes,
Speaker 2: I'm committing to a talking filibuster, should I just bend
Speaker 2: over now or you want to do it later? Where
Speaker 2: should we get it in? Stop with the lies. We're
Speaker 2: sick of it. I know I speak for a lot
Speaker 2: of Americans on this election integrity, voter ID, be a citizen,
Speaker 2: clean the voter roles. The Democrats know that more than
Speaker 2: eighty four percent of American people are on board with
Speaker 2: being a citizen and having voter ID. They are not
Speaker 2: on board with rhino assholes and liberal Democrats who have
Speaker 2: far too long lined their own pockets and have done
Speaker 2: nothing for the American people. So while it sucks to
Speaker 2: have a partial government shutdown, and while it sucks to
Speaker 2: see things like FEMA and our military affected, it's going
Speaker 2: to suck a lot more. If we don't get the
Speaker 2: SAVEAC passed, our elections aren't safe. And then we end
Speaker 2: up blockstep with the Democrats. And let me tell you something.
Speaker 2: Everything these Republicans are afraid to do, they're afraid to
Speaker 2: make happen. The Democrats would do it ur be. They
Speaker 2: vote every single time unanimously lock step. They are arm
Speaker 2: in arm. They know what they're doing. Days before they
Speaker 2: come in to vote, they've had an agreement. And I
Speaker 2: don't know who's got pictures of who, but I'll tell
Speaker 2: you what. They got it down to a science because
Speaker 2: they never break rank. The Republicans. Nope, every day, we
Speaker 2: all day. They're all about themselves and they'll go on
Speaker 2: big TV shows and they'll talk a good game, and
Speaker 2: you know what, it's all bullshit. So if you want
Speaker 2: your DHS funded, if you want your elections to be protected,
Speaker 2: you better make sure that your elected congressman hears from
Speaker 2: you today. Because there's only a few of them really
Speaker 2: fighting for us. That's Pauline A. Luna, timber Chet, chip Roy,
Speaker 2: Brandon Gill, you know, to name a few. And in
Speaker 2: the Senate there's Senator Mike Lee, God bless him, and
Speaker 2: Senator Tim Schmid of Missouri. He's great. But otherwise they're
Speaker 2: going along to get along. And the ones that are
Speaker 2: voting against the president but still kind of helping out
Speaker 2: this one point two trillion dollar spending bill, they're not
Speaker 2: doing it to help us. They're doing it because they
Speaker 2: hate the president. So there's a little bit of that too.
Speaker 2: We need everybody to get out of their own way
Speaker 2: and to get out of our way. Pass the Save Act,
Speaker 2: codify these laws, get our elections back to where they
Speaker 2: should should have always been. Quite frankly, let's get integrity
Speaker 2: back into the vote, guys, because I'm telling you right now,
Speaker 2: the Democrats have a plan. They are organized and funded.
Speaker 2: Republicans are sloppy. They slept through the alarm. They're late
Speaker 2: for the program. They have no idea what's going on,
Speaker 2: and that's why we always end up here. We gotta
Speaker 2: hold their feet to the fire. This is Linda McLaughlin.
