First of all, 15 00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:00,520 Speaker 1: I want to talk about Mitch McConnell. To talk about 16 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:04,319 Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell. The last time that Mitch McConnell was in 17 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:07,479 Speaker 1: front of a podium, and this time it was in 18 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:12,560 Speaker 1: the Capitol Building and froze. Many pundits were like, let's 19 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 1: not touch this. We're not going to have a conversation 20 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:18,080 Speaker 1: about this. Let's show that we are better than the right. 21 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 1: And like, I don't need to show the right that 22 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,399 Speaker 1: I'm better. I fucking know that right as well as 23 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:27,319 Speaker 1: you you know that as well. Here's the thing about 24 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell's continued deterioration and literal brain freezes neurological events 25 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: that he continues to have following I guess I don't 26 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,399 Speaker 1: know exactly what is causing this. If he had a stroke, 27 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 1: he had a fall, like whatever it is. But here's 28 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: the reality, these fucking octanagerians who are unwell right Like 29 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 1: it is one thing to say I because I have 30 00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 1: grappled with this, Am I just an agist? And I'm saying, oh, 31 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,279 Speaker 1: you're old and get out of the way. No, because 32 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 1: again I will say, Bernie Sanders is eighty something years old, right, 33 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,240 Speaker 1: he is clearly sharp, continues to. 34 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 2: Do his job. Joe Biden, right is old. 35 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: The reason why Joe Biden has pauses is because he 36 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 1: has a stuttering impediment that he's at his entire life, 37 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 1: not because his brain literally freezes and his face just 38 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 1: you know, the connection isn't happening. And that's what the 39 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,360 Speaker 1: fuck happened with Mitch McConnell. It's the same way that 40 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: I feel about Diane Feinstein.

We are in the 168 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 1: climate crisis. It's not impending. It is happening on a 169 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: regular basis, and coming off of this summer, how anyone 170 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 1: with a fucking working brain in their head could think 171 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 1: about anything other than what do we need to do 172 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:39,679 Speaker 1: now in order to stop some of the most expensive 173 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 1: and dangerous weather patterns from consistently happening. I don't know, 174 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 1: you know, but I do know that, you know, as 175 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:54,719 Speaker 1: the Empire of America falls and crumbles, we're going to 176 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:56,680 Speaker 1: be the ones that are going to be underneath the rubble. 177 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:01,440 Speaker 1: And when archaeologists and what have you come, you know, 178 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 1: centuries from now, and they say, you know, all of 179 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,400 Speaker 1: the signs were clear, and they had all the technology 180 00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:11,200 Speaker 1: and all the access, like, what the fuck happened? 181 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 2: I hope somebody listens. 182 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 1: To wokef because then you'll know exactly what happened. So, 183 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 1: you know, we continue to see each and every single week, 184 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:28,200 Speaker 1: and hurricane season doesn't usually end until November, but who 185 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 1: the fuck knows, because seasons don't make sense anymore, right. 186 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 1: I've been thinking about this, as you know, the calendar 187 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 1: changes to September, and I'm like, you know, my birthday 188 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 1: is in November, which is why I love the fall 189 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,320 Speaker 1: so much, because I just I love the change of seasons. 190 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,679 Speaker 2: I love the Christmas in the air, I love all 191 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 2: of that. 192 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:57,440 Speaker 1: But the last several years I've done outdoor events for 193 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 1: my birthday because it's been nearly seventy degrees in November, right, 194 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:10,199 Speaker 1: not normal at all, No, it's not. So. What we know, folks, 195 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:17,960 Speaker 1: is that these hurricane seasons, fire seasons, tornado seasons, they're 196 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,600 Speaker 1: no longer predictable in terms of their length and in 197 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: terms of their strength. And anyone who is entering the 198 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 1: White House needs to understand that this is actually the 199 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 1: war that is happening, that is costing lives and costing 200 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 1: billions of dollars, and maybe maybe we should give it 201 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:41,080 Speaker 1: as much attention as you would, you know, the wars 202 00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 1: that kill people for you know, oil and stuff. It's 203 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 1: so frustrating, it really is. I just think, you know, 204 00:13:53,760 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 1: Donald Trump has waived his arraignment appearance in Georgia for 205 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:05,840 Speaker 1: September six, and we're still waiting on the at least 206 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 1: at the time of this recording, the verdict around Mark 207 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:15,839 Speaker 1: Meadows and his removal from state court to federal court. 208 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 1: And here's what I'll say about that. Mark Meadows is 209 00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 1: one of the most dangerous human beings. He is one 210 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: of the most dangerous human beings. He is one of 211 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 1: the most insidious, sinister human beings. Mark meadows knew exactly 212 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 1: what he was doing on January sixth. He was burning 213 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 1: papers in his office. Why was that asked in his 214 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 1: five hour testimony as to why he believes that he 215 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 1: was working in official capacity? Can we bring in other 216 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:51,040 Speaker 1: cheats of staff and ask them if they've ever burned 217 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 1: papers in their office, if they've ever preemptively asked for 218 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:58,240 Speaker 1: a pardon? Why would you need to do that if 219 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 1: you weren't doing anything illegal? And you can make up 220 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,840 Speaker 1: an excuse about oh, the Democrats weaponizing. 221 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 2: No. No, because if there's no. 222 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 1: If you're not breaking the law and the law wasn't 223 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 1: just written by Democrats, If you're not breaking the law, 224 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 1: or think that you're breaking the law, why the fuck 225 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:26,040 Speaker 1: would you ask preemptively for a pardon? So Mark meadows 226 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 1: knew exactly what the fuck he was doing, and he 227 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 1: wasn't working in anybody's official capacity, and you know, for somebody, 228 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 1: if you were interested and invested in you know, following along. 229 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:46,840 Speaker 1: Check out Shriylyn Eiffel's Twitter.
