1
00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:04,160
Speaker 1: Hi, I'm Molly John Fast and this is Fast Politics,

2
00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:07,120
Speaker 1: where we discussed the top political headlines with some of

3
00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:11,840
Speaker 1: today's best minds, and Bernie Sanders held his largest rally

4
00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:12,840
Speaker 1: yet in Los.

5
00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:17,280
Speaker 2: Angeles to over thirty six thousand people. We have such

6
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:20,040
Speaker 2: a great show for you today. The Lincoln Project's own

7
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:24,520
Speaker 2: Rick Wilson joins us to talk about Trump's inability to

8
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:29,360
Speaker 2: make America great again again. Then we'll talk to Senate

9
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 2: Minority Leader Chuck Schumer about his plans to fight and

10
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 2: kill the Save Act.

11
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 3: But first the news, Samali Uh, The big news over

12
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:42,559
Speaker 3: the weekend is Trump had these tariffs that were going

13
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:45,440
Speaker 3: to be real hardcore, and then it turned out there's

14
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:47,520
Speaker 3: a whole lot of carve outs.

15
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, well there are carve outs. And then so on

16
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:53,440
Speaker 2: Friday night, Donald Trump he had said he was going

17
00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 2: to do a trade war. Then he started a trade war.

18
00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,279
Speaker 2: Then perhaps he got a phone call. Perhaps he got

19
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,640
Speaker 2: a phone call from one Tim Apple. You may remember

20
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 2: Tim Apple. He's a man who makes a lot of

21
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:08,960
Speaker 2: cell phones and computers and laptops. Because late Friday night,

22
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 2: Trump announced that cell phones, chips, and laptops will get

23
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:16,560
Speaker 2: a reprieve from tariffs oh, interesting. So the only thing

24
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 2: that's going to really get tariffs are toys, goods, and clothing. Now,

25
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 2: let me add that. On Sunday, on the Sunday Shows,

26
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,479
Speaker 2: Trump's Commerce Secretary, or as we like to think of him,

27
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,600
Speaker 2: a nice guy who got where things went a little

28
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:34,839
Speaker 2: too far, a man named Howard Lutnick.

29
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:39,320
Speaker 4: Said, So, you're saying that the the tariffs on things

30
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 4: like smartphones and laptops, iPhones, all those iPhones built in China,

31
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 4: that those tariffs are temporarily off, but they're going to

32
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 4: be coming break back on in another form in a.

33
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 5: Month or so or what are you saying?

34
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 6: Correct? That's right, that's right.

35
00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:00,560
Speaker 7: Semi conductors and pharmaceuticals will have a tariff model in

36
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 7: order to encourage them to rea sure to be built

37
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 7: in America. We need our medicines, and we need semiconductors

38
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,520
Speaker 7: and our electronics to be built in America. We can't

39
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 7: be the holding and rely upon foreign countries for fundamental

40
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 7: things that we need. We can't be relying on China

41
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:20,520
Speaker 7: for fundamental things.

42
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 2: I can't hear any more of that because it makes

43
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:26,200
Speaker 2: me really upset. But let me just say two things here.

44
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 2: The whole point was that markets started freaking out because

45
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 2: Trump World was back and forth, first of all, because

46
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,840
Speaker 2: Trump World was fourth with the tariffs. But then the

47
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:40,960
Speaker 2: back and forth created more uncertainty, which is what sent

48
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 2: the price of our bonds down and made it more

49
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 2: expensive to borrow money in this country because all of

50
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 2: a sudden, foreign investors don't think of US as a

51
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,120
Speaker 2: safe haven they used to think of us as. Now

52
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 2: we have the Commerce Secretary on the Sunday shows music

53
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 2: about putting back the tariffs, and by the way, there's

54
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,119
Speaker 2: still tariffs. Sunshine is still just not with the cutout,

55
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 2: and also teariffs on Canada and Mexico. And here's the

56
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 2: Commerce Secretary being like, well, maybe we'll do it anyway.

57
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 2: This is all bad and will be bad. And I

58
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 2: am not a psychic, but my guess is that both

59
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 2: the bond markets and the public markets will not like

60
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 2: this tomfoolery.

61
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 8: Now, there's this very viral TikTok this week, and one

62
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 8: of the most popular ones that showed person in China

63
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,080
Speaker 8: showing how many things in their house are made in

64
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker 8: America and the inswun and the conswers none, and then

65
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:33,959
Speaker 8: they're like, how many products are made in China in

66
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 8: your house. And I think that put a fine point

67
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 8: on it.

68
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 2: Well, I want the people of Latoussu in Africa buy

69
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 2: more Chevy suburbans.

70
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 6: Somali.

71
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 8: There's been a very big dispute with the governor of Maine,

72
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 8: Janet Mills and mister Trump, and the courts are now

73
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:52,840
Speaker 8: getting involved.

74
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, and let me tell you here's what's going to happen.

75
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 2: Trump is going to lose. Trump administration order to unfreeze

76
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 2: fund in dispute with Maine over transgender students. This is

77
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 2: what Janet Mills. By the way, there are people who

78
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 2: stand up to Trump and they are heroes. There are

79
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 2: people who acquiesce to Trump and they are cowards. That

80
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 2: is it. There is no equating here. You are either

81
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,720
Speaker 2: brave or you are a coward. You are either a

82
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,280
Speaker 2: law firm that makes a deal with the Trump administration

83
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,479
Speaker 2: or you are a law firm that is brave. And

84
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:26,839
Speaker 2: if you are a person who works in one of

85
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:30,719
Speaker 2: these cowardly law firms, you know, I pity you because

86
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 2: you don't have to do that. Trump administration is going

87
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 2: to lose in court. Janet Mills is going to win.

88
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,480
Speaker 2: You can't punish an entire or state by not letting

89
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 2: them have the money that is theirs. And by the way,

90
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 2: this is just eroding federalism. I mean, he is just

91
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,719
Speaker 2: picking on states. And by the way, there are governors

92
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 2: who run who have done a really good job of

93
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,839
Speaker 2: standing up to Trump. They are Janet Mills, they are

94
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 2: Tim Walls, they are Pritzker, Governor Pritzker. And then there

95
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 2: are governors who have gone in there and kissed the

96
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,040
Speaker 2: ring and ended up having to hide behind a folder.

97
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:09,479
Speaker 2: You know who you are.

98
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 6: Yeah, that was sad.

99
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 8: So speaking of other governors, Oh, this really breaks my

100
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,479
Speaker 8: heart that he had to go through this. Governor Shapiro

101
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 8: and his family were evacuated after someone apparently tried to

102
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 8: set fire to the governor's residence in Harrisburg.

103
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:28,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, we don't know the circumstances yet, but it's not

104
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:32,080
Speaker 2: good and it is really not how any of us

105
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 2: want to live, and it's not how any of us

106
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:37,600
Speaker 2: need to live. Right. What we need is we need

107
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 2: our electeds and including the President of the United States

108
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 2: Donald J. Trump, saying to people that they should not

109
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 2: do anything violent, that everything should be peaceful, that we

110
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 2: should all be very focused on resolving our differences with

111
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:57,560
Speaker 2: words and not with anything else. It's really disappointing to

112
00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,840
Speaker 2: see stuff like this. Again, we don't know what it was,

113
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 2: so perhaps it was some kind of mechanical saying, and

114
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:04,839
Speaker 2: let's all hope it was.

115
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 6: Yeah.

116
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 8: So, in really really despicable, despicable news, the new FEMA

117
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 8: head has denied North Carolina's REQUESTICS at one hundred percent

118
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 8: reimburson for Hurricane Helene's damage.

119
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 2: I think it's important to remember that Hurricane Helene was

120
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,839
Speaker 2: used by Trump world right. They said that Biden wasn't

121
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,880
Speaker 2: giving people the stuff they needed. They said that Biden

122
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 2: was slow rolling FEMA because it was a red district. Okay, Well,

123
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:35,719
Speaker 2: now Trump is president and he is saying the Federal

124
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:39,960
Speaker 2: Emergency Management Agency will end its one hundred percent match

125
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:44,359
Speaker 2: for Helena's disaster recovery in North Carolina. The need in

126
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 2: western North Carolina remains immense. People need to be removed,

127
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:52,920
Speaker 2: homes rebuilt, and roads restored, said Governor Josh Stein in

128
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:56,159
Speaker 2: a news release. I'm extremely disappointed and urged the President

129
00:06:56,200 --> 00:07:00,400
Speaker 2: to reconsider FEMA's bad decision, even for ninety day. Six

130
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:03,359
Speaker 2: months later, the people of western North Carolina are working

131
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 2: hard to get back on their feet. They need FEMA

132
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 2: to get the job done. Well, guess what Donald Trump

133
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 2: is amusing about getting rid of FEMA. So that'll mean

134
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 2: the next one of these that happens, there'll be no

135
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 2: one to help, and that would be really, really dark.

136
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 2: And I think it's probably worth remembering that Donald Trump

137
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 2: lied about Biden and this hurricane, and now he is

138
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:32,440
Speaker 2: president and we're seeing just the kind of stuff he

139
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:36,680
Speaker 2: was doing for FEMA, and it was honestly nothing good.

140
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 2: Rick Wilson is the founder of the Lincoln Project in

141
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:47,560
Speaker 2: the host of the Enemy's List Welcome Back, Too Fast Politics.

142
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 6: Rick Wilson, Hey, Emily, how are you today?

143
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 2: Oh?

144
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 6: Just great job, great spiffing, Thank you, lovely, darling.

145
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 2: Things are going really great. I don't even know where

146
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 2: to start the disappearing the grad students, or the Trump

147
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 2: versus this room board, or the tear of chaos.

148
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 6: Yeah, there's a lot of a lot of a lot

149
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:08,720
Speaker 6: right now.

150
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 2: Where where do we even start?

151
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 6: Honestly, I think we start where the thing that will

152
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 6: be the controlling factor on everything else is the economic chaos.

153
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 6: And if it continues, we are going to be in

154
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 6: a point where Trump won't have to worry about trying

155
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 6: to disappear more grad students or fire more Social Security

156
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:34,200
Speaker 6: workers because it will be outright, you know, people living

157
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 6: in the radioactive ruins, eating roasted rats over a fire.

158
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 6: We're not out of the economic woods yet, even though

159
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 6: he has continued to back out of his tough talk

160
00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 6: bullshit in the last few days.

161
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, President GI clearly wants to make a phone call.

162
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 2: He just doesn't know how.

163
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:51,560
Speaker 6: He doesn't have a phone.

164
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 2: You know, he clearly wants to work this out, poor man.

165
00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 2: He just doesn't now.

166
00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:02,680
Speaker 6: Those unsophisticated chinaman or whatever Trump would call them in

167
00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 6: his racist way.

168
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:09,839
Speaker 2: And then last night he went to a fight in Miami.

169
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 6: Because yeah, as one does, he's.

170
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 2: Laser focused on the damage he is causing. And Bernie

171
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 2: Sanders was giving a big speech in California and at Cochella.

172
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:24,680
Speaker 2: And why you know it's working is because the New

173
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,920
Speaker 2: York Post was furious at Bernie.

174
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:28,559
Speaker 5: Uh huh.

175
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:31,600
Speaker 6: Yeah. You can always count on the rupert barometers of Fox,

176
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:33,680
Speaker 6: the New York Post, the Wall Street Journal to play

177
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 6: the middle brow, lowbrow and highbrow maga action.

178
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:42,439
Speaker 2: Okay, highbrow is the Wall Street Journal. Middlebrow is the

179
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 2: New York Post because it's still being read and lowbrow

180
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:46,440
Speaker 2: is Fox?

181
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 3: Right?

182
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,080
Speaker 6: Correct? I say that saying there's not a lot of

183
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 6: gap between the low and the middle.

184
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was gonna say, but it is a good point.

185
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:59,439
Speaker 2: And like this week, what we saw was that highbrow

186
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:03,200
Speaker 2: Fox aka the Wall Street Journal ed page was toying

187
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 2: with the possibility that maybe he should be impeached on

188
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:09,360
Speaker 2: the tariffs. That was a headline for the Ages. Baby.

189
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:14,840
Speaker 6: The idea that causing enormous economic damage to the country

190
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 6: is an impeachable offense is one that honestly is closer

191
00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:24,080
Speaker 6: to legitimacy than you know. We don't like Donald Trump,

192
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:27,199
Speaker 6: and I do think that there's a degree to which Trump's,

193
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,679
Speaker 6: you know, standing on the deck of the Titanic right now,

194
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:34,880
Speaker 6: as he keeps trying to look he understands how badly

195
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 6: he screwed this up. He's trying to back and fill,

196
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 6: he's trying to get out of it, he's trying to whatever.

197
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:43,200
Speaker 6: But this problem isn't over. China and other countries are

198
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,839
Speaker 6: dumping US treasuries right now, folks y, Yeah, right now.

199
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,960
Speaker 2: So let's just backpedal for a minute and talk about

200
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 2: what happened here. Trump decided that the economy was good,

201
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:57,439
Speaker 2: and that Joe Biden had left him a really good

202
00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:00,640
Speaker 2: opportunity to look good. So he decided, instead of doing

203
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:05,079
Speaker 2: all he needed to do was good, continued disappearing grad students.

204
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,240
Speaker 2: He could continue flouting the rule of law. All he

205
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 2: needed to do, he could continue installing in autocracy. All

206
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,080
Speaker 2: he needed to do was not crash the public markets.

207
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 2: And you damn you if you try to tell my

208
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,319
Speaker 2: man Donald Trump not to do something.

209
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,839
Speaker 6: Absolutely, you know what I'm going to tell Donald he

210
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:26,800
Speaker 6: should definitely not take up base jumping, because at this point, no,

211
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,840
Speaker 6: you're molly, But that's exactly the point. There's a literary term.

212
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:32,959
Speaker 6: He has the imp of the perverse on his shoulder.

213
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,319
Speaker 6: He's always going to do the thing everyone goes, hey,

214
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:38,200
Speaker 6: that's a really terrible idea, sir. He will always go

215
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 6: and do that thing. He will always go and say, well,

216
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 6: if they say I can't shoot elon into the sun

217
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 6: on a rocket, I'm definitely going to do is try.

218
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:49,000
Speaker 2: He says, we're going to bring back manufacturing, or we're

219
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 2: going to raise a ton of money with tariffs or whatever.

220
00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:53,920
Speaker 2: We're going to bring it back to smooth holly. Because

221
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:57,280
Speaker 2: I've heard that the Great depression was great for wealthy

222
00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 2: white guys. So he decides he's going to do this.

223
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 2: No one in his North Korean style cabinet it has

224
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:07,960
Speaker 2: any courage because they've all gotten their jobs because they're cowards.

225
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,360
Speaker 2: So they all say, yes, Master, can I please have another?

226
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:15,560
Speaker 2: He crashes the public market day after day after day,

227
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:19,440
Speaker 2: and finally when it becomes clear that the dollar is

228
00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 2: possibly not going to be the reserve currency anymore because Americans,

229
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,439
Speaker 2: instead of selling stocks and going into bonds, are selling

230
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:29,800
Speaker 2: stocks and going into their mattresses or other countries or

231
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:34,319
Speaker 2: who even knows what Donald Trump is like watching Maria

232
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 2: barda Roma interview Jamie Diamond and Jamie Diamond. Now again,

233
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 2: we don't know if it was just as Jamie Diamond

234
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:47,840
Speaker 2: interview or it was a whole slew of different who knows.

235
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 2: But the point is, whatever it was, was the moment

236
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 2: that Donald Trump was like, ooh, maybe I have overplayed

237
00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:56,440
Speaker 2: my hand here.

238
00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 6: This is what I call the Tiajuana weekend moment.

239
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 2: I love that you have the ti i Wana weekend moment,

240
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 2: because oh I didn't I have.

241
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:10,360
Speaker 6: A Tijuana weekend story including so much bad stuff. But

242
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 6: but but the Tijuana weekend story is this. On Thursday,

243
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 6: you're like, we're going to Tija Wan. It's going to

244
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:19,560
Speaker 6: be awesome. And then by Friday afternoon you're like, this

245
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:21,440
Speaker 6: is going to be the best thing ever, and you

246
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:25,439
Speaker 6: start drinking. And sometimes Saturday, at mid afternoon you wake

247
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,560
Speaker 6: up in a car covered in vomit and there might

248
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:30,360
Speaker 6: or might not be a dead hooker in the trunk,

249
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 6: and you start having regrets, and then you start we.

250
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 2: Say, sex worker, sex worker, a dead sex worker. Yeah,

251
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:39,959
Speaker 2: that's if I have nothing else. Okay, go on.

252
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 6: But the problem at that point is then you have

253
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:44,600
Speaker 6: to flee the country. Then you have to figure out

254
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:46,959
Speaker 6: how to bury a dead sex worker in the desert. Yes,

255
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,880
Speaker 6: all these things add up quickly, and you're like, oh God,

256
00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 6: is there something I don't know? But all of that

257
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:57,840
Speaker 6: starts to accumulate quickly, and it's just like a car crash.

258
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,560
Speaker 6: A car crash only takes one second, but after the crash,

259
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,520
Speaker 6: we're covering in the hospital, fixing the car, dealing with

260
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,839
Speaker 6: the legal consequences. All of it takes forever. He has

261
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:10,200
Speaker 6: already caused the damage to go on and on and

262
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:14,560
Speaker 6: on it will continue. At this point, China is choking

263
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:16,480
Speaker 6: off American exports around the globe.

264
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 2: Yes, they are.

265
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:19,080
Speaker 6: They are doing everything they can.

266
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 2: Those guys fuck. In case you're wondering, chief focks, what

267
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 2: are the pooh fucks? Yeah, there, We're in a lot

268
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 2: of trouble with the chick. This is not going well.

269
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 6: Look, they're going to start selling energy across the Pacific

270
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:32,800
Speaker 6: more than they do right now. They're going to cut

271
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 6: off the American beef industry. And again there's a rumor

272
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,880
Speaker 6: last week floating around among the Senate Republicans that they

273
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 6: were going to have to do, at least for the

274
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 6: first month of the tariffs, one hundred and fifty billion

275
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 6: dollar relief package for farmers, the airlines, American ag and timber.

276
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,640
Speaker 6: And at that point you're like, oh, wait, have we

277
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:53,640
Speaker 6: made a mistake, because if we're playing one hundred and

278
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 6: twelve billion dollars a month, it's going to come out

279
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 6: to like one point five trillion dollars a year to

280
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 6: support the trade war, which was supp going to make

281
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:02,840
Speaker 6: us so much money. You don't you would even know

282
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 6: how much money you have. There'll be so much money.

283
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:10,520
Speaker 2: Well, luckily we have doge, which is cutting everything except anything.

284
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,160
Speaker 6: You know, from two trillion, Molly down to one hundred

285
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 6: and fifty billion. That seems like promising your mom and

286
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:18,320
Speaker 6: dad you're gonna get straight a's and you get four

287
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 6: fsent a d.

288
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 1: Yeah.

289
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 2: You know. My favorite part of this is there's a

290
00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,320
Speaker 2: really good piece in the New York Times today by

291
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:29,760
Speaker 2: David Fahrenhold where he looks at the numbers and then

292
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 2: he has people from the Woke Cato Institute.

293
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,280
Speaker 6: Yes, those liptards are Cato.

294
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:42,080
Speaker 2: Liptards, a Cato saying the emperor has no clothes. And

295
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 2: mister Mott's group has provided an online ledger of budget cuts,

296
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 2: which he calls the Wall of Receipts. The ledger is

297
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 2: riddled with omissions and flaws.

298
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 6: The idea of one or two trillion dollars I'm sure

299
00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:59,320
Speaker 6: on paper it was really super appealing and some mentally

300
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 6: sort of appeal, but real talk, we are not winning

301
00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 6: on budget cuts. The way to really have done this

302
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,120
Speaker 6: was if you were to assemble, as by the way

303
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 6: both Bill Clinton and George W. Bush did at different

304
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,880
Speaker 6: points in their administrations. If you were to assemble teams

305
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:18,120
Speaker 6: of what we call auditors and management consultant experts and

306
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,520
Speaker 6: program experts to go through the budget. You could find

307
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:25,320
Speaker 6: this thing called savings. Now, it doesn't mean you put

308
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 6: a twenty two year old kid named big Dick or

309
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:29,160
Speaker 6: whatever his name is.

310
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 2: Big balls are all about accuracy here. Yes, I'm sorry

311
00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:35,240
Speaker 2: politics big balls.

312
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 6: A previous assertion made on this program calling Elon Musk's

313
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:42,280
Speaker 6: in cell catamite big Dick, was in fact incorrect. His

314
00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 6: nom de douche is big balls.

315
00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 2: Thank you, sir. Accuracy matters here.

316
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:51,720
Speaker 6: Accuracy matters. But you would do this in a serious

317
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 6: grownaway Bill Clinton did it. Every serious approach to this

318
00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 6: would have involved people who were doing audits and people

319
00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:01,240
Speaker 6: who were studying the programs, and it wouldn't be slash

320
00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 6: and burn horseshit by a bunch of people who know

321
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:06,720
Speaker 6: nothing about nothing and who go into government with the

322
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:09,159
Speaker 6: attitude of my main job is to suck down all

323
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:11,280
Speaker 6: this data and give it to Elon for his AI

324
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:14,399
Speaker 6: to train on. Because that's what's happened they're taking I

325
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,560
Speaker 6: promise you we're going to find this out, either now

326
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:22,119
Speaker 6: or later, that Elon's monkeys have been taking all this

327
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 6: government data and sucking it over to Grock dot Ai,

328
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 6: his AI company, so it can train on our personal information.

329
00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:31,280
Speaker 6: I promise you that's what's going on. I can't prove

330
00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:33,080
Speaker 6: it yet, but I know who these people are.

331
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,920
Speaker 2: Listen, man, all I can say is that Kevin Hasset

332
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:40,880
Speaker 2: on the Sunday Shows today. I love this man. I mean,

333
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:43,320
Speaker 2: there are a lot of sad people in this administration.

334
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,800
Speaker 2: You are sadder than Kevin Hassett.

335
00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:50,239
Speaker 6: Yeah, Kevin Hassett is a sad person. I saw Ray

336
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:52,320
Speaker 6: Navarro or Ron Vara, as you may.

337
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,680
Speaker 2: Know, everyone's favorite Harvard.

338
00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:57,200
Speaker 6: PhD based economist Ron Vara.

339
00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:00,359
Speaker 2: Is Harvard going to take back that PhD for fake

340
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:01,440
Speaker 2: citing himself.

341
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:03,760
Speaker 6: I want to know if Elon has found Ron Vari's

342
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:08,400
Speaker 6: phony social Security number yet. Yes, but I saw him,

343
00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,879
Speaker 6: I mean literally he was. He was still trying to

344
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,760
Speaker 6: hold up this bullshit of all these countries have come to.

345
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:16,720
Speaker 2: Us, they want to make us, except China.

346
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:20,320
Speaker 6: Except China. And actually, when Welker asked him what countries,

347
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,199
Speaker 6: it was like hammanahamanahamanahamana, because it's a lie. We know

348
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:25,240
Speaker 6: it's a lie. It's a surch story only with the

349
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:26,960
Speaker 6: international trade Listen.

350
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:32,000
Speaker 2: I'm sure Japan came. It's a tiny economy riddled with stagslation,

351
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:36,200
Speaker 2: which could be us in five years, five years, five days,

352
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,040
Speaker 2: so hasse. I'm going to read you a Hassid quote,

353
00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:40,679
Speaker 2: and I'm going to let you muse on it. The

354
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,720
Speaker 2: whole point of the trade policy is to address the

355
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:48,280
Speaker 2: national emergency, which is you ready go, We are two

356
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 2: dependent on foreign products in the United States, especially in

357
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 2: a time of conflict. That's the national emergency.

358
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,480
Speaker 6: I can think of a number of other national emergencies

359
00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:01,760
Speaker 6: that we are currently involved with, including a trade where

360
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:04,080
Speaker 6: we started and shouldn't have started, and that is blowing

361
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:07,200
Speaker 6: back on us wild I mean, let's put it this way, folks.

362
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:09,600
Speaker 6: I was told that the price of eggs and groceries,

363
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 6: which you may have heard of, Molly. I don't know

364
00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 6: if you've heard of this word groceries.

365
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 2: It's a very old fashion word.

366
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:14,320
Speaker 6: It's an old fashion word.

367
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:17,760
Speaker 2: It's an old fashioned word used mostly by my chef

368
00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:18,560
Speaker 2: and my driver.

369
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:23,080
Speaker 6: But the idea that prices are suddenly soaring across the board.

370
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:25,520
Speaker 6: I was told in twenty twenty four that that was

371
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:27,480
Speaker 6: the big issue. Yeah, I was.

372
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:30,080
Speaker 2: That's why I was told that Joe Biden could not

373
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:31,399
Speaker 2: get reelected.

374
00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:33,040
Speaker 6: Right, And I was told that the smart black lady

375
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:37,000
Speaker 6: was unacceptable because she didn't understand the crisis in working

376
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:37,760
Speaker 6: class America.

377
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,679
Speaker 2: That's right, and Trump is good for the economy and

378
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:43,879
Speaker 2: going to bring down prices. I'm still waiting. It's working

379
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:46,280
Speaker 2: so well, working great.

380
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:49,160
Speaker 6: We have some other crises right now that I think

381
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:52,400
Speaker 6: are bigger. And maybe I'm just an old fashioned traditional

382
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 6: libertarian when I think you shouldn't snatch grad students off

383
00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:59,159
Speaker 6: the street. When I think that searching people's phones who

384
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:01,360
Speaker 6: are here legally on a visa to see if they've

385
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:03,800
Speaker 6: ever said a harsh word against Donald Trump and then

386
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,119
Speaker 6: deporting them if they have, or if they said anything

387
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 6: critical of Israel and deporting them if they have. They're

388
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:13,359
Speaker 6: missing that First Amendment, which call me crazy. They're missing

389
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:16,959
Speaker 6: the Fifth Amendment. They're missing all these This entire mess

390
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,680
Speaker 6: that we find ourselves in right now has to do

391
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,760
Speaker 6: with a contempt for the Constitution, a contempt for the

392
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:26,200
Speaker 6: rule of law, a contempt for institutions, a contempt for Congress.

393
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,960
Speaker 6: And the Republicans in Congress fuck them because they're letting

394
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:30,879
Speaker 6: him get away with it every day. As much as

395
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:32,840
Speaker 6: John Thune and these guys are talking a big game,

396
00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 6: and as much as they're saying, oh well, we're going

397
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:36,960
Speaker 6: to hold it on on it. They're not. They could

398
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 6: be doing things right now. I've heard from sources that

399
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:42,480
Speaker 6: Thune has quietly gone to Susie and other people in

400
00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:44,119
Speaker 6: the White House and that Steven Miller told them to

401
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:47,480
Speaker 6: basically fuck off. The Senate Majority leader was basically told

402
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:50,879
Speaker 6: to fuck off by Steven fucking Miller. And they've done nothing.

403
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,359
Speaker 6: They will do nothing. They are afraid of him and

404
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:55,520
Speaker 6: afraid of Trump, and so they're going to sit on

405
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 6: their hands and they're going to say, oh, we can't

406
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:02,160
Speaker 6: really do much right now because all the good guys

407
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 6: would be taken out by muggs in a primary. At

408
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 6: this point, there are no good guys. That's the secret.

409
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:12,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, so Trump has lost the Wall Street Journal editorial page.

410
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:17,879
Speaker 2: Dave Portnoy, right, Dave Portnoy from Barstool Sports.

411
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:20,040
Speaker 6: By the way, Molly, can I say just bring up

412
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:22,680
Speaker 6: one thing. So last night Trump went to this UFC

413
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:24,960
Speaker 6: match and one of the fighters in the arena for

414
00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:28,199
Speaker 6: all their elected concerned about anti Semitism was a Hitler

415
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:32,720
Speaker 6: quoting alt right kind of dipshit. And Dave Portnoy was

416
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:35,480
Speaker 6: there waving an Israeli flag. But I can remember a

417
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 6: time when a president wouldn't go to an event where

418
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:41,439
Speaker 6: an alt right nazi dipshit was performing in some capacity.

419
00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:43,400
Speaker 6: Then that time, by the way, would have been all

420
00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 6: former presidents.

421
00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:49,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's talk about what we're seeing now. We have

422
00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:52,320
Speaker 2: this trade war that we'll keep going. There will be

423
00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:57,439
Speaker 2: again intended consequences and unintellded consequences, which is like the

424
00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:02,600
Speaker 2: first Trump presidency really as a study in unintended consequences.

425
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,560
Speaker 2: Right to impeachments. I think we're going to see a

426
00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:08,919
Speaker 2: lot of that coming down the pike. There is still

427
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 2: this case that the Supreme Court is going to look

428
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:15,199
Speaker 2: at which could strip Trump's tear off powers away. I

429
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 2: think that is a real thing.

430
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:20,080
Speaker 6: They've been talking about it behind closed doors. They're whispering

431
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:23,000
Speaker 6: about it. They've sort of semi threatened it to the

432
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:26,080
Speaker 6: White House, and they're not at the end going to

433
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:26,440
Speaker 6: do it.

434
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:30,160
Speaker 2: No, Congress won't do it, but the Supreme Court may

435
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 2: do it.

436
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:33,760
Speaker 6: The Supreme Court may do it. I also think that

437
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 6: we saw with the unanimous ruling, because as we talked

438
00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:40,080
Speaker 6: about on Friday, when this Supreme Court rules and something unanimously,

439
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 6: it's very noteworthy. Yeah, man, the White House's response essentially,

440
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:45,680
Speaker 6: since that has been fuck you. I want to see

441
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 6: what happens next, because if the answer is fuck you,

442
00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:52,680
Speaker 6: if the only answers fuck you, then the Supreme Court

443
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:56,400
Speaker 6: it faces a existential test of its legitimacy. And if

444
00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 6: it does not take immediate actions to sanction this administration

445
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:03,560
Speaker 6: and hold the people at DHS in contempt and cause

446
00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:07,720
Speaker 6: them pain, then the Supreme Court will lose its entire

447
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:11,120
Speaker 6: basis for its role in our system of government.

448
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's just have two more seconds on this, because

449
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,879
Speaker 2: what can the Supreme Court do at this moment and

450
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:21,480
Speaker 2: what can they not do? Like they could strip him

451
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:23,960
Speaker 2: of the tariff power, and I think there's a real

452
00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:27,080
Speaker 2: chance that happens if it gets there. You know, they

453
00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:30,440
Speaker 2: said that even people who are in this country illegally

454
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:32,600
Speaker 2: have the rights to do process, which by the way,

455
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:36,160
Speaker 2: MAGA was saying they didn't. So this is actually a

456
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 2: real thing.

457
00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:40,439
Speaker 6: And MAGA is very angry about this because they have

458
00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:43,879
Speaker 6: this very twisted view of the Constitution, and the Constitution

459
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,960
Speaker 6: for them means white Protestant Christians from the south of

460
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,919
Speaker 6: the Midwest have a full panoply of rights and no

461
00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,920
Speaker 6: one else does. Whether they're Americans, or not. And let's

462
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,320
Speaker 6: not forget I'm not being facetious at the moment when

463
00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,880
Speaker 6: Carolyn Levitt sat there on the podium and said, Oh,

464
00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:00,520
Speaker 6: we're looking for ways where we could deport you citizens

465
00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:01,840
Speaker 6: who say the wrong thing too.

466
00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:02,879
Speaker 2: Yeah.

467
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:06,920
Speaker 6: Yes, that's not a joke anymore, y'all. No, No, that's

468
00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:10,320
Speaker 6: not the Trump administration, you know, owning the libs or trolling.

469
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 6: That's the Trump administration warning people that they wish to

470
00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:18,240
Speaker 6: violate the Constitution and they wish to deport American citizens

471
00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:21,800
Speaker 6: and seek retribution on American citizens who Trump does not like.

472
00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:24,800
Speaker 6: We've joked over the years about Yasse and Gemo, but

473
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:27,119
Speaker 6: there are people in his world who would like that,

474
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,520
Speaker 6: and they will pursue it until they are stopped from

475
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:30,080
Speaker 6: pursuing it.

476
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:32,639
Speaker 2: Correct, Rick Wilson, will you come back?

477
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:33,640
Speaker 6: You know I will.

478
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:38,960
Speaker 2: Chuck Schumer is the Senate Minority Leader and the senior

479
00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:42,879
Speaker 2: Senator from the great state of New York. Welcome to

480
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 2: Fast Politics, Senator Chuck Schumer.

481
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:48,040
Speaker 5: Great to be back with you, Molly.

482
00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:51,919
Speaker 2: We're in the middle of tearor this insane TERRORFF situation,

483
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:54,919
Speaker 2: and I want you to talk us through where we

484
00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:59,440
Speaker 2: are with that. There are bills. There's a bill that passed.

485
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,679
Speaker 2: It hasn't passed the House, but there certainly sounds like

486
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:06,040
Speaker 2: there's numbers to pass a bill in the Senate. Where

487
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:10,200
Speaker 2: are we with trying to wrangle some teriff authority back

488
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 2: from the president?

489
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 9: Well, first, MOLLI, these tariffs are just terrible and it's

490
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:17,880
Speaker 9: a tax, a huge tax. We call it the Trump tariff.

491
00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 9: Tax on American families. Even with the little bits of

492
00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:24,680
Speaker 9: step back that they did, Yale estimated it would cost

493
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 9: the average American family forty four hundred dollars a year,

494
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:32,240
Speaker 9: more money for food and for prescription drugs, more money

495
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:35,920
Speaker 9: for clothing, and for gas, you name it. It goes up.

496
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 9: And why are they doing this? This is the most

497
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:40,480
Speaker 9: despicable part of this at all.

498
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:40,920
Speaker 5: All.

499
00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,480
Speaker 9: First, they give six different reasons, but the number one

500
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:45,800
Speaker 9: reason is they want to use this to give more

501
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 9: tax breaks to billionaires. So these billionaires who are doing

502
00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:52,320
Speaker 9: damn well already would get more money and the average

503
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:55,800
Speaker 9: consumer would pay a cost of forty four hundred dollars

504
00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:56,120
Speaker 9: a year.

505
00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:56,960
Speaker 5: It's outrageous.

506
00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:59,920
Speaker 9: The stock market for people who have four oh one K,

507
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:02,120
Speaker 9: and that's more than half the people in the country.

508
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 9: The average person with a four oh one k lost

509
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,480
Speaker 9: one hundred thousand dollars. What are they going to do

510
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:10,080
Speaker 9: if you're about to retire. So it's awful, awful with.

511
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:13,280
Speaker 2: The tariffs part of the problem and the reason why

512
00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:16,199
Speaker 2: Trump paused them, though there are still a lot of

513
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:19,399
Speaker 2: tariffs in place, especially in Canada Mexico. The reason he

514
00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:22,679
Speaker 2: paused it was because the bond market freaked out and

515
00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:24,760
Speaker 2: it looked like people were not going to buy our

516
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:28,399
Speaker 2: debt and the dollars down from the you know, the

517
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:31,200
Speaker 2: lowest since I don't know, you know, five years or whatever.

518
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:36,439
Speaker 2: So it seems as if because of the irrationality of

519
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:40,080
Speaker 2: the Trump administration, people don't want to invest in America.

520
00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:44,639
Speaker 9: Yeah, Molly, people need certainty. Businesses need certainty. People need certainty.

521
00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:47,640
Speaker 9: So consumer confidence is at the lowest leveling years because

522
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:49,800
Speaker 9: you're not going to buy that car if the tariff

523
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 9: is going to slap you with two three thousand dollars

524
00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:52,760
Speaker 9: of extra costs.

525
00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:56,880
Speaker 2: Right, But that's consumer confidence which is also at record

526
00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 2: lows and is starting to really be something that may

527
00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:01,720
Speaker 2: drive it to a recession if we're not there yet.

528
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:05,320
Speaker 2: But the world is also may not use the dollar

529
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:09,920
Speaker 2: as the default currency anymore. You guys in Senate and

530
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:13,760
Speaker 2: the House may be able to put some guardrails up.

531
00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:15,240
Speaker 2: Where are you with this?

532
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 5: Okay?

533
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:19,879
Speaker 9: So we have one bill that passed the Senate because

534
00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:23,240
Speaker 9: we got every Democrat voting to get rid of the

535
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:26,080
Speaker 9: We did the Canadian taris first because that was last

536
00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 9: week and we got four Republicans to vote for it.

537
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:32,919
Speaker 9: Maria Cantwell put together a bipartisan bill with Grassley. We

538
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:34,840
Speaker 9: haven't had that on the floor yet. We'll try to

539
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:36,800
Speaker 9: have to force them to put it on the floor

540
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:41,000
Speaker 9: best we can. But that's seven more Republicans joined in.

541
00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:45,399
Speaker 9: Public sentiment is everything. The public realizes how crazy this is.

542
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:47,000
Speaker 9: You know, they look at it and they say the

543
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 9: administration has a different explanation. Even at the same time,

544
00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:54,560
Speaker 9: Musk not my cup of tea. He called this guy

545
00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:57,240
Speaker 9: Navarro a moron. Who's the guy in charge of it.

546
00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:02,600
Speaker 9: So the public is telling Republican congressmen and senators. They're saying, wtf,

547
00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,080
Speaker 9: get rid of these damn things. They're killing us, and

548
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:07,560
Speaker 9: they're beginning to feel the heat. I had an amendment

549
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:10,440
Speaker 9: in the reconciliation bill of two weeks ago, the first

550
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:13,920
Speaker 9: budget bill to say no tariffs, all the tariffs go

551
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 9: away if the price of groceries goes up. They didn't

552
00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:18,040
Speaker 9: vote for it two weeks ago, but they're going to

553
00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 9: have to vote on it again, and there's going to

554
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 9: be much more pressure on them to vote for it

555
00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:24,000
Speaker 9: now that the prices are going up and that people

556
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:25,240
Speaker 9: see how crazy they are.

557
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:28,640
Speaker 2: When you say, public sentiment is not with them, do

558
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:31,439
Speaker 2: you think and it seems to me like this is

559
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:34,639
Speaker 2: a real thing. Like last weekend we saw millions of

560
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:38,200
Speaker 2: people march to protect Social Security and medicare. Do you

561
00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:42,680
Speaker 2: think that that actually works, that that actually helps you?

562
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 2: And tell us why why?

563
00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:48,760
Speaker 9: Because if they're constituents in Republican districts, go to them

564
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 9: and say stop doing what Trump wants. They're afraid of Trump.

565
00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:55,000
Speaker 9: He threatens them. But what's against that is the threat

566
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:58,000
Speaker 9: of losing your election of people your own Republican allies

567
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:00,880
Speaker 9: not voting for you. And we're seeing that, and that's

568
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:03,880
Speaker 9: why we're seeing for the first time real cracks in

569
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,800
Speaker 9: the Republican wall on this issue of tariffs. And I

570
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:09,520
Speaker 9: think we'll find them on Medicaid. Right now, they're in

571
00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:12,320
Speaker 9: a total mess on the budget because some of them,

572
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:13,800
Speaker 9: at least some of them don't want.

573
00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:15,040
Speaker 5: To cut Medicaid that much.

574
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:17,880
Speaker 9: I went into three Republican districts in nursing homes that

575
00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:21,480
Speaker 9: said they'd closed if they cut Medicaid, and Republicans were

576
00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:23,760
Speaker 9: there saying, we can't vote for these guys anymore.

577
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:27,200
Speaker 2: There's also a teariff case going up to the Supreme Court.

578
00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 2: It is by the group that is funded by Leonard

579
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:35,720
Speaker 2: Leo and the surviving Koch brother Yep. Do you think

580
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,400
Speaker 2: there's a world because we saw this week that the

581
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,960
Speaker 2: Supreme Court they were nine zero on due process? I mean,

582
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,040
Speaker 2: do you think that there's a world where the Supreme

583
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:45,560
Speaker 2: Court takes his power away from him?

584
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 5: Yes?

585
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 9: The law is very clear that if Congress wants to

586
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:52,080
Speaker 9: take the power of tariffs away from the executive branch,

587
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:52,560
Speaker 9: they can.

588
00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 5: It's crystal clear.

589
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:57,240
Speaker 9: And so even the Supreme Court hardly I voted against

590
00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 9: all these right wingers who were put on the court

591
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 9: and argue against them. But even the Supreme Court, I think,

592
00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:07,600
Speaker 9: is seeing how nuts this administration is, how crazy they are,

593
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,400
Speaker 9: and some of them may pull back. As you saw,

594
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:14,080
Speaker 9: even on due process we got a little bit of daylight,

595
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 9: not enough, but a little.

596
00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:19,000
Speaker 2: Do you feel that there were things that Biden could

597
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:23,360
Speaker 2: have done differently to protect norms and institutions, or do

598
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 2: you think he did as much as he could have.

599
00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:29,200
Speaker 9: Well, obviously on certain issues we could have done more,

600
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:30,880
Speaker 9: and Biden could.

601
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 5: Have done some more on certain things.

602
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 9: But overall, the Trump administration has gone No administration has

603
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:40,400
Speaker 9: ever gone as crazy to undo norms in every way

604
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:44,400
Speaker 9: in terms of social security. Look, this has been sacred

605
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 9: in America. The bottom line is that they're trying to

606
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 9: now eliminate, strangle it. You know what they did last week.

607
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:52,440
Speaker 9: Not only did they cut off the phone lines to

608
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:56,400
Speaker 9: Social Security offices, not only closing social Security offices. They

609
00:30:56,400 --> 00:31:00,280
Speaker 9: closed one in Westchester, they closed one in Elmira. Now

610
00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:03,440
Speaker 9: they're saying no email to Social Security offices. But they're

611
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:05,240
Speaker 9: doing this across the board. I mean, one of the

612
00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:07,040
Speaker 9: worst things we were going to talk about this is

613
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:07,840
Speaker 9: the Save Act.

614
00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:10,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's talk about the Save Act because it passed

615
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 2: the House and it's coming to you.

616
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:15,720
Speaker 9: It's despicable. First, I want to tell your listeners it

617
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:19,320
Speaker 9: will not pass. I'm the minority leader. They need sixty

618
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:21,720
Speaker 9: votes for it. They will not get the sixty votes.

619
00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:23,800
Speaker 9: Democrats will not vote for it. Here's what it does.

620
00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:27,280
Speaker 9: About half the people in America couldn't vote anymore, particularly

621
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 9: poor people, people of color, women. If you have to

622
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:36,200
Speaker 9: have either a passport or a certified license, if you

623
00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:38,760
Speaker 9: were married in a different name, you'd have to get

624
00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:42,320
Speaker 9: a new document with your married name on it to vote.

625
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 5: Half Americans don't have passports.

626
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 9: So many women don't you know, their birth certificate which

627
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:50,240
Speaker 9: they use is their name they were born with, not

628
00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:52,680
Speaker 9: the name they changed to. This is like the Old South.

629
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 9: This is the Jim South in the whole Republican Party.

630
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:58,080
Speaker 9: And they put so many barriers in the way of

631
00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 9: voting that basically, if this asked, our democracy would be

632
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:05,720
Speaker 9: totally diminished, even gone. More than half the people I

633
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,680
Speaker 9: estimate who vote now couldn't vote. But we will not

634
00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 9: let it pass period, Over my dead body. It is despicable.

635
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:15,400
Speaker 2: Trump has made a number of executive orders or at

636
00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 2: least one, where he has tried to exert power over

637
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:22,960
Speaker 2: our elections, which are supposed to be controlled by the states.

638
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:27,480
Speaker 10: Can you talk about how dangerous that is. It's totally dangerous.

639
00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:31,120
Speaker 10: This is the whole wellspring of America. Is voting is democracy,

640
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:33,560
Speaker 10: and even when we've had severe disagreements.

641
00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 9: We've kept democracy. No administration has come close, has come

642
00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:43,560
Speaker 9: close to abandoning destroying the democracy. It is totally at risk,

643
00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:46,280
Speaker 9: as this SAYAC shows with them doing it.

644
00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:47,920
Speaker 5: But I do think we can beat it.

645
00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:51,320
Speaker 9: And there's no question about it that it is our

646
00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:55,000
Speaker 9: right to that. They cannot do this over Congress because

647
00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:57,320
Speaker 9: you know it would go so far that it would

648
00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 9: be crazy. And they are crazy, don't get me wrong,

649
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:04,880
Speaker 9: but it's generally even the Republicans, except that they got

650
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:06,160
Speaker 9: to pass this stupid thing.

651
00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:08,520
Speaker 5: I wouldn't say stupid, I'd say this fucking thing. I

652
00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:08,960
Speaker 5: hate it.

653
00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:13,440
Speaker 2: So AOC and Bernie are on this stop the Oligarchy tour,

654
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:16,720
Speaker 2: They've got Maxwell Frost, they've got different people. Do you

655
00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 2: think Democrats need to do more of this to go everywhere? Yes, Look,

656
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:22,440
Speaker 2: there's lots of things we have to do.

657
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:25,160
Speaker 9: We have to fight them every way, every day, and

658
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 9: we have to show how bad Trump is, as we

659
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:29,200
Speaker 9: did on the tariffs, and as you saw the polling

660
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:32,520
Speaker 9: by CBS this morning, people are understanding how bad these

661
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:34,280
Speaker 9: tarts are for their well being.

662
00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:35,360
Speaker 5: But it's on everything.

663
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:38,800
Speaker 9: It's on Medicaid, it's on Social Security, it's on tax breaks,

664
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:41,360
Speaker 9: for the wealthy, and the rallies are we go to

665
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:43,960
Speaker 9: court and we've won three quarters of our court cases.

666
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:46,000
Speaker 9: We have a lot of good progressive groups and we're

667
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:49,120
Speaker 9: working with them closely, the ags, you know, the Attorney's

668
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:51,720
Speaker 9: General like Tis James. So we go to court, but

669
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 9: organizing is key, and these rallies are really important.

670
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:57,520
Speaker 5: I'm so glad to see so many people at them.

671
00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:00,800
Speaker 9: And then what we're also doing is telling people go

672
00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:05,000
Speaker 9: into these Republican districts, let them know that, for instance,

673
00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:08,520
Speaker 9: all the healthcare would go down the drain go to

674
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:12,120
Speaker 9: rural areas if they cut Medicaid by what they want

675
00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,840
Speaker 9: to cut it by, Molly, rural hospitals would just close.

676
00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:17,319
Speaker 9: They're often the biggest employer and the only source of

677
00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:21,279
Speaker 9: health care. Go after education. There's cutting education dollars in

678
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:25,000
Speaker 9: so many areas. Public education is everything. There's no choice.

679
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:27,480
Speaker 9: We have to go after them in every way. And

680
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:30,400
Speaker 9: the rallies inspire people to do it, and then they

681
00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:32,439
Speaker 9: get them that, we get the names and we can

682
00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:36,480
Speaker 9: organize them going into the letting particularly the more rural

683
00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:39,439
Speaker 9: Trump voting districts, know that this guy is betraying them.

684
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:42,600
Speaker 9: He's not doing what he promised. He is just for

685
00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:45,440
Speaker 9: the wealthy. There's a billionaire little bubble up there. The

686
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:48,560
Speaker 9: billionaires all talk to each other. They don't understand what

687
00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:49,799
Speaker 9: working people go through.

688
00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 2: Talk to me about the violence. We have this Josh

689
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,320
Speaker 2: Shapiro story today. What can we do?

690
00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:57,840
Speaker 9: This is yeah, we don't know the cause yet, so

691
00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:00,719
Speaker 9: it's a little premature to say it happened. But it's

692
00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:04,880
Speaker 9: despicable and the kind of right wing rhetoric is just

693
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,840
Speaker 9: awful and that should be curved. Whether it had anything

694
00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:10,360
Speaker 9: to do with this violence or not, it's just awful.

695
00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:13,960
Speaker 9: And my heart goes out to the Shapiro family that

696
00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:18,600
Speaker 9: was celebrating evidently their passover stator when the governor's mansion

697
00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:21,320
Speaker 9: was set on fire, and the damage, from what I understand,

698
00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:22,320
Speaker 9: is quite extensive.

699
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:25,440
Speaker 2: We have this situation, I mean, it's Passover. We're Jews.

700
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:28,040
Speaker 2: It's been I think, a very tough time for Jews.

701
00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:32,560
Speaker 2: We have NATANYAHUO has really tried to use anti Semitism

702
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:36,120
Speaker 2: as a cudgel. We see this administration trying to use

703
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:39,759
Speaker 2: anti Semitism as an excuse to depoor people. For me,

704
00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:44,120
Speaker 2: my passover sator last night, my cousin is a son

705
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:46,640
Speaker 2: of survivors. You know him, Herald Confluence.

706
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:47,160
Speaker 5: I do.

707
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 2: And he was weeping about his dad and the Warsaw

708
00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:55,719
Speaker 2: Ghetto and the Warsaw uprising. And we're watching an administration

709
00:35:55,960 --> 00:36:00,880
Speaker 2: use our names in order so to be anti democratic.

710
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:04,279
Speaker 9: So we have to stand up strongly against anti semitism

711
00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:06,959
Speaker 9: when it's anti semitism, but never let it be used

712
00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:10,600
Speaker 9: as an excuse to go after something else. Plain and simple,

713
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:14,439
Speaker 9: thank you, thank you, thank you, it's great to talk

714
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:16,920
Speaker 9: to you. Happy passover, it's the second day.

715
00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, thank you. Thanks. No, No moment Brick Wilson,

716
00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:29,240
Speaker 2: Moly Jong fast, let's go, moment of fuckery.

717
00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:33,440
Speaker 6: Moment of fuckery. I think Trump is losing allies and

718
00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:34,600
Speaker 6: surprising places.

719
00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:38,600
Speaker 2: Yes, Trump Commerce secretary sends Americans into a spin with

720
00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:42,080
Speaker 2: an astonishing admission and yet another tear. If you turn

721
00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:43,920
Speaker 2: guess where that comes from.

722
00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:48,840
Speaker 6: Would it be from a progressive libtard far left outlet.

723
00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:52,520
Speaker 2: It might in fact be from my nemesis, The Daily

724
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:56,240
Speaker 2: They Love You that has gone whoa, they're woke now.

725
00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:59,840
Speaker 6: The Daily Mail is one more of this sort of

726
00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:03,160
Speaker 6: constellation of things. You would have expected to stick with

727
00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:06,280
Speaker 6: Trump to the very end, and yet they really haven't

728
00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:10,120
Speaker 6: they really are lately. I mean, especially on the economic front.

729
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:13,280
Speaker 6: Right now, they were blasting Lutnick, They've been blasting the tariffs.

730
00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:16,040
Speaker 6: I think that there's a sense of them calling some bullshit.

731
00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:18,719
Speaker 2: Yeah. I have to say the Daily Mail, like the

732
00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:21,760
Speaker 2: New York Post, is one of the most disgusting pro

733
00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:26,680
Speaker 2: Trump outlets, and they have really gone along with some

734
00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:35,040
Speaker 2: of the just the most craven lies about Harris. Turns out,

735
00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:39,080
Speaker 2: you'll be shocked to know that, in fact, even they

736
00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:43,320
Speaker 2: have a red line, and it's when Trump loses money

737
00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:44,520
Speaker 2: for very wealthy people.

738
00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 6: Yes, it is. By the way, I'd also like to

739
00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:50,120
Speaker 6: point out a minifuckery item. Yeah, if Donald Trump weighs

740
00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 6: two hundred and twenty four pounds and has a blood

741
00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:54,480
Speaker 6: pressure of one twenty eight over seventy four, then I'm

742
00:37:54,480 --> 00:38:02,439
Speaker 6: a fucking ballerina. That is all nano fuckery.
