So she didn't look okay, 327 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 2: and these photos on top of that, which I think 328 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 2: is the bigger story. But I'm like, where, like, Brittany 329 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 2: is also a very famous and powerful person, Like why 330 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 2: is she able to get smacked by, you know, a 331 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 2: basketball player's bodyguard, someone. 332 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 1: Who hasn't even done anything in the league, I might add. 333 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 2: But yeah, like is this like to me, I'm like, 334 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 2: this seems like it shouldn't have happened. 335 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, no, it is very strange. Yeah, 336 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 1: it's hard putting all the pieces together. But I bet that, 337 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 1: Like I wonder if his security guard, because he's used 338 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 1: to being like a big old man protecting like other people, 339 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 1: he's got to protect someone who's like head and shoulders 340 00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 1: above him, make it feel all tiny, So he's just 341 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 1: compensating and just fucking smashing anybody around him. I don't know, 342 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:06,440 Speaker 1: but yeah, that was all happening in Vegas. We'll see 343 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 1: what happens. Jack and I may also make the. 344 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:14,400 Speaker 4: News when they say two disheveled gen xers, not even 345 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:18,560 Speaker 4: they're like two disheveled middle aged men surrounded Victor wembin 346 00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 4: Yama and they tried to get a picture. 347 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:24,879 Speaker 1: I don't know, we'll see. And then finally Marjorie Taylor 348 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 1: Green is trending. You hate to see this the name 349 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: anywhere get. 350 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:30,880 Speaker 2: To see her. 351 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:33,680 Speaker 1: But she's in a bit of She's in a spot 352 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 1: of trouble, not legally, but just with her you know, 353 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:40,720 Speaker 1: other weirdo colleagues. She was booted from the House Freak, 354 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 1: I mean, House Freedom Caucus, and they are some of 355 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,160 Speaker 1: the truly worst characters in Congress. Folks. These are like 356 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 1: the bottom of the fucking barrel already. And apparently the 357 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:54,120 Speaker 1: band of fascists were real mad at Marjorie Taylor Green 358 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 1: for being overly friendly with their arch nemesis, Speaker of 359 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 1: the House, Kevin McCarthy. They're like, we're trying to start 360 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:04,119 Speaker 1: throwing deals with him because she's in pursuit of power. 361 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,520 Speaker 1: She doesn't give a fuck. That's why she's not gonna 362 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 1: stay on cold. 363 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 2: The whole part of the Republican Party is being a 364 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 2: trader at all times. 365 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:13,879 Speaker 1: It's also just do what you gotta do. Yeah, you 366 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:15,359 Speaker 1: know what I mean. They're just like, I don't know, 367 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 1: I'm trying to get mine. What the fuck are you 368 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 1: talking about? Yeah, I said, I believe in QAnon. I'm 369 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 1: trying to get mine. I don't believe that shit. I'm 370 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 1: trying to get mine. That's what most politicians are about. 371 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 1: But then the final straw, apparently was when a few 372 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 1: weeks ago she called Lauren Bobert a little bitch on 373 00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 1: the house floor. Uh, and they're like that is too far. 374 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 3: Yeah. 375 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:38,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, She's like, look your little bitch. Yeah. Because this 376 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:41,399 Speaker 1: is where it gets here. They were both because they 377 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:44,200 Speaker 1: were both in line to see who could impeach Joe 378 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 1: Brandon first, and Marjorie Taylor been was like, I was 379 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 1: the first person who was trying to go with this 380 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 1: nonsense impeachment process to just eat up a bunch of 381 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 1: time in Congress. And then Lauren Bobert like recently, was 382 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 1: like I'm about to, like, you know, I would like 383 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,400 Speaker 1: to impeach Joe Biden. And she's like, that's my fucking lane, 384 00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 1: say out my lane. And this is what happened. Apparently 385 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:04,679 Speaker 1: there's been a lot of tension, but I get it. 386 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 1: These are all fucking freaks who are being ran by 387 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:12,160 Speaker 1: their egos, who got into Congress by shit posting racist 388 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,639 Speaker 1: memes all the way to DC. So I'm surprised this 389 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:19,399 Speaker 1: hasn't fallen apart sooner, like they've papped together pretty quickly. 390 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:21,880 Speaker 1: But you know, I feel like pretty soon we'll start 391 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 1: seeing more back and forth, I guess from disgusting people. Anyway, 392 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 1: that'll do it for us today. I hope you guys 393 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,359 Speaker 1: enjoyed your day to day. We're gonna be back tomorrow 394 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:35,160 Speaker 1: with a brand new episode, fantastic episode. And until then, 395 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,280 Speaker 1: First of all, thank you Beca for joining me. But yeah, 396 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 1: be kind yourselves. Be kind to each other, but serious 397 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,439 Speaker 1: to be kind to yourself. It's a very underrated skill. 398 00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 1: Get the vaccine, do all that nonsense. Don't do nothing 399 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 1: by white supremacy, of transphobia, none of that. You know, 400 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 1: be a good person and let people know you're a 401 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:51,639 Speaker 1: good person.
