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 --> 00:00:12,920
Speaker 1: today's best minds and in Emerson College survey says fifty

4
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:17,799
Speaker 1: seven percent of likely voters in California support Newsome's redistricting plan.

5
00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:21,279
Speaker 1: We have such a great show for you today, The

6
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:26,760
Speaker 1: Jim Acostas Show's own Jim Acosta stops by to talk

7
00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 1: about Trump's unpopular rule and its consequences. Then we'll talk

8
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:36,639
Speaker 1: to Congressman Jared Moskowitz about the Republicans bad bargaining as

9
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:40,599
Speaker 1: the government shutdown continues. But first the news Bi.

10
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 2: I gotta tell you this, Trump prosecuting his enemies. You

11
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:45,839
Speaker 2: feel like his heart would be more in it if

12
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:48,840
Speaker 2: he hadn't given the most incompetent person in the world

13
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:49,280
Speaker 2: the job.

14
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:55,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, so let's talk about what the fuck is going

15
00:00:55,080 --> 00:01:00,080
Speaker 1: on here. Donald J. Trump is prosecuting his enemies. This

16
00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 1: is norms, crushing democracy killing. There aren't enough cliches to

17
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 1: spout in order to explain how fucking bad this is.

18
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:11,840
Speaker 1: This is bad. It's not what we do. It's what

19
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 1: they do in Russia, and it's what they do in

20
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 1: Banana republics and the good news is that, believe it

21
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 1: or not, Donald J. Trump and his henchmen are not

22
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 1: very smart. And so despite that, I think that Letitia

23
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,959
Speaker 1: James is actually going to win this. And by the way,

24
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:37,479
Speaker 1: what's really cool about this is like we have these

25
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:40,399
Speaker 1: people who are pushing back, they are fighting back, they

26
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 1: are showing what we need to see, which is that

27
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 1: all of this is ridiculous. And Lindsay Halligan is an

28
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 1: insurance attorney and she does not know how to run

29
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 1: the Justice Department, and so going after the president's enemies

30
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 1: is going to fail. And also, this is not what

31
00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: we do in this country.

32
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 2: Yes, agreed, you know it is a shame because these

33
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 2: people end up spending tons of money to fight these

34
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:08,680
Speaker 2: coure cases while our textellars support mister Trump's grievances. I mean,

35
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:12,079
Speaker 2: I heard Boddick McIver, Congress would from New York talking

36
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 2: about it's costing her over a million dollars that she

37
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 2: has to raise to fight her lawsuit and it's gumming

38
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:20,799
Speaker 2: up the works when shames could be doing other things.

39
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,959
Speaker 2: But this is where we are with this stupid, stupid administration.

40
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 2: Speaking of Donald Trump is really wetting the bed over

41
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 2: Canada and Cardi running an ad against his stupid tariff's boy,

42
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 2: he's really throwing a fit.

43
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 1: Yeah. Look, Mark Carney is a really skilled PM and

44
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,800
Speaker 1: they are really lucky. Like he's the guy who led

45
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 1: England through Brexit, who is really smart and good. He's

46
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 1: like the opposite. He's like bizarro Trump. He's like good

47
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 1: at stuff luckily for them. So he is mad because

48
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:59,359
Speaker 1: Canada did this ad shows this video of Reagan talking

49
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 1: about harems, and Trump is mad about this ad, so

50
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,480
Speaker 1: he's decided that he's going to cut off trade negotiations

51
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:11,080
Speaker 1: with Canada. Here's the truth. Donald Trump is out of

52
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:14,560
Speaker 1: his depths and likely out of his mind. And so

53
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 1: Ronald Reagan had the common Republican belief and now Trump

54
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 1: is just not a free trader. So this ad quote

55
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:25,800
Speaker 1: it's drawn from a radio dress that Reagan gave in

56
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 1: April nineteen eighty seven, which he's urges Congress not to

57
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 1: pursue protectionist policies against Japan and gave a blistering critique

58
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 1: of the economic effects of tariffs. Look, man, Ronald Reagan

59
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 1: is right. I mean that's the crazy part of this.

60
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 1: Like this is correct. And again with every Trump truth

61
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,360
Speaker 1: I think this is like the most important part of

62
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 1: the story. It was unclear if the President had spoken

63
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 1: to mister Carney or anyone in the Canadian government before

64
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:57,320
Speaker 1: announcing that he was canceling trade talk Bye. Mister Trump's

65
00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,839
Speaker 1: Thursday missive was not the first indication that he had

66
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 1: noticed the ad. And look, you know again, this is

67
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 1: we are being We are being ruled by a mad

68
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 1: king who has emotional responses to things and then decides

69
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 1: that he is going to run the federal government because

70
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:20,280
Speaker 1: of his emotional responses to things. I am reminded of

71
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 1: a time when we weren't told that women were too emotional.

72
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 2: I was going to say that I'm reminded of him

73
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 2: saying this is how Hillary Clinton would run the government.

74
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 2: And yeah, buddy, I'll take a firm book at the mirror,

75
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 2: because it seems like that top of the bud for

76
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 2: him every day.

77
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 1: Oh period jokes, bum bum bum. Anyway, look, man, you're

78
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 1: not wrong. Yeah, so it's just it's not good.

79
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:48,919
Speaker 2: Speaking of not good, I'm going to tell you they

80
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,719
Speaker 2: it's a total story here that I remember about a

81
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 2: month ago, I was celebrating with a friend their new

82
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 2: job achievement. I got a steak and the steakhouse came

83
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 2: up to us because they knew us from internet stuff,

84
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 2: and they said, we really apologize about the stake portion.

85
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 2: We don't want to raise our prices. But beef is

86
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 2: at at all time high. And I looked at a

87
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:09,600
Speaker 2: graph and I could not believe how much the hot

88
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 2: price of beef had gone up. And so sure enough

89
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 2: we see a new report that inflation has climbed to

90
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 2: its highest level since January, and beef is at an

91
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:17,359
Speaker 2: all time.

92
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:20,800
Speaker 1: High fifteen percent over the year ending in September. Data

93
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,840
Speaker 1: shows Trump has set off an outcry. Look, these are

94
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,480
Speaker 1: people who voted for Trump who are actually just getting

95
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,839
Speaker 1: fun by Trump egg prices. You'll remember Donald Trump said

96
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 1: he was going to make eggs cheaper. Wow, they are

97
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:40,599
Speaker 1: a little cheaper, but we've recently read that birdflu is back,

98
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 1: so we'll see how cheap they stay. The price of

99
00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 1: coffee has starved nineteen percent over the past year, which

100
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,640
Speaker 1: is where most of my money goes. To Carolyn Levitt,

101
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,599
Speaker 1: who said that Donald Trump is laser focused on the

102
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,720
Speaker 1: renovation of his ballroom. As well. He should be, it's

103
00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:01,239
Speaker 1: not like he's president. She said that the government shutdown

104
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 1: would likely result in no inflation report for October. You'll

105
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:08,200
Speaker 1: remember that earlier this season, Donald Trump fired the head

106
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 1: of the Bureau of Labor and Statistics. So my guess is,

107
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:15,279
Speaker 1: my man, we'll be happy not to have that information.

108
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 1: He might have to fire her again. Can he fire

109
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: a third time?

110
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 2: I imagine that the guy who got famous off of

111
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,719
Speaker 2: saying you're fired can just do it all night and day.

112
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:28,040
Speaker 1: Let us pray right, so bad somai.

113
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 2: I'll tell another personally asident. My wife, as we've discussed,

114
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 2: works for a congress person, and therefore she's working but

115
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 2: not getting paid. So our house has been reduced to

116
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 2: a single income house now and luckily I can cover us.

117
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,480
Speaker 2: But like so many families we're talking to of coworkers

118
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 2: and other people we know in government, they're having horrible times.

119
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,479
Speaker 2: Their student loans are going to misspayments, which come with penalties.

120
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 2: They don't know how to pay them because the government

121
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,680
Speaker 2: normally takes care of that process, but the liaison is

122
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,039
Speaker 2: shut down. This is a real shit show. With this

123
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:03,680
Speaker 2: government shutdown, have Russia Ron Johnson blocking Chris van Holland's

124
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:07,040
Speaker 2: measure to allow federal employees to be paid during the shutdown.

125
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,640
Speaker 1: I don't know what happens here. I mean, this shutdown

126
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:14,559
Speaker 1: could keep going until Thanksgiving. Democrats don't want a cave.

127
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:20,280
Speaker 1: Republicans don't want to extend these tax credits on Obamacare.

128
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,600
Speaker 1: They were like a bunch of different bills to try

129
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 1: and pay some different people. There's the Military and Federal

130
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: Employee Protection Acts, sponsored by Gary Peters, which would allow

131
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:36,880
Speaker 1: military service members, federal employees, and contractors to receive the

132
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 1: pay they have missed during the shutdown. Again, Johnson blocked

133
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:44,480
Speaker 1: both measures. Van Holland, you know there are a couple measures.

134
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 1: You know, this is a government shutdown with no end

135
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 1: in sight, and it's fucked, and you know, you have

136
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 1: people at food banks, and you know, government employees really

137
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 1: have just been treated so terrible over the last nine months,

138
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 1: and Republicans don't care, and it's a pretty stupid state

139
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:14,840
Speaker 1: of affairs, all told Stronger. Jim Acosta is the author

140
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 1: of The Substack That Jim Acosta Show and the author

141
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,360
Speaker 1: of the New York Times bestseller Enemy of the People,

142
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 1: A Dangerous Time to Tell the Truth in America. Welcome

143
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 1: too Fast Politics, Jim Acosta.

144
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 3: Hey, good to see you, good to hear you.

145
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 1: And we are alive another day in Trump's America? Can

146
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 1: you believe, Like, let's take a moment to recount the

147
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 1: week that the East Wing was demolished, that Donald Trump

148
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:46,679
Speaker 1: said the American people should pay him two hundred million

149
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 1: dollars two hundred and sixty four million dollars. I can't

150
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:51,640
Speaker 1: remember exactly the number of bombs and fishermen in the

151
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 1: Caribbean Sea as well, it does next week, that's right.

152
00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:03,200
Speaker 1: You know, all federal government remains closed all to prevent

153
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 1: the American people from seeing the Epstein trials.

154
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 4: Yes, I think, good night everybody that that's a perfect synopsis.

155
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 3: Let's just go home. That's that's it.

156
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I you know, you know, I worked

157
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,119
Speaker 4: at the White House for seven and a half years covering.

158
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:18,800
Speaker 1: Before they pulled away your hard pass.

159
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:21,680
Speaker 3: Remember that my heart passed.

160
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:26,079
Speaker 4: Now like pulling away my heart pass is sort of

161
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,680
Speaker 4: like a Disney you know, after school special or.

162
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 3: Something comparedable right now.

163
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:34,680
Speaker 4: But no, I mean, you know, I have some reverence

164
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,400
Speaker 4: for the place. I know that nobody does anymore, but

165
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,680
Speaker 4: I still do. And the fact that he could just

166
00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 4: go in and fucking raise the East Wing of the

167
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 4: White House without you know talking to anybody about it.

168
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,720
Speaker 4: It's just like the perfect symbol of where we are

169
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 4: right now as a country, and people just need to

170
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 4: understand this is going to get worse before it gets better.

171
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:59,680
Speaker 4: He's unstable, the people around him are either corrupt or

172
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 4: a name or both. And you know this is this

173
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,679
Speaker 4: is We're just heading towards the midterms and we all

174
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:09,680
Speaker 4: have to buckle up because I think this is going

175
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:11,640
Speaker 4: to get worse before he gets better, and his out

176
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,280
Speaker 4: of control behavior is going to get even more out

177
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 4: of control when he basically tries to stop us from

178
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 4: all voting next year.

179
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 1: So I mean, yes, he has just said he will,

180
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 1: but you know what I do think, And again, like

181
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:29,080
Speaker 1: why I think we should not despair is partially because

182
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 1: it's too early to despair, but also because even Hitler

183
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 1: was popular. I'm sorry, but popular.

184
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,440
Speaker 3: You know he wasn't Molly, I gotta go now. It

185
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:46,160
Speaker 3: was great talking to you, just saying.

186
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:49,080
Speaker 1: Like Mussolini, you have to be a little popular, Like

187
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:50,719
Speaker 1: if you want to be an autocrat, you got to

188
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 1: give the carrots. And what's happening right now the federal

189
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:57,960
Speaker 1: government is closed because Donald Trump does not want to

190
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:02,080
Speaker 1: give more money for healthcare premium, which means because of

191
00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 1: tax cuts for very wealthy people, which means that all

192
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,080
Speaker 1: of these people who voted for him are about to

193
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 1: get kicked off their healthcare. They're not about to not

194
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 1: be able to afford to pay their.

195
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,439
Speaker 4: Premiums, right, And I know that strategically, you and I've

196
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 4: talked about this, the Democrats have carved out a nice

197
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,320
Speaker 4: little strategy for themselves.

198
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:20,920
Speaker 3: That, you know, if they hold the.

199
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 4: Republicans over a barrel over these Obamacare premiums, that they'll

200
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,480
Speaker 4: cry uncle at some point. And that may and maybe

201
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 4: they will. Maybe they will, but maybe they won't. There's

202
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 4: a part and maybe they won't. There's a part of

203
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 4: me that wonders whether it might make sense for at

204
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,480
Speaker 4: this point for folks to understand what it feels like

205
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 4: to touch the hot stove. And I just you know,

206
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 4: I wonder when Donald Trump says, oh, these are Democrat programs.

207
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,679
Speaker 4: So I, as you and I have talked about, I've

208
00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:51,200
Speaker 4: been to tons of Trump rallies. A lot of his

209
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:53,200
Speaker 4: people are on Medicare, a lot of his people are

210
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 4: on Medicaid, a lot of his people are on Obamacare,

211
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,880
Speaker 4: but just may not. They may not fully understand that,

212
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,680
Speaker 4: but they are on Obama and they're going to start

213
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 4: to feel these premium increases that you know, as Margie

214
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 4: Taylor Green was saying about her own kids, maybe what

215
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,280
Speaker 4: doubling or whatever for a lot of Americans.

216
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:13,440
Speaker 3: And I think that you know that there there may be.

217
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 4: A scenario where some folks are just going to have

218
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:19,439
Speaker 4: to get that sticker shock and understand like, oh, yeah,

219
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 4: this is important. Look what's happening to the farmers in

220
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,160
Speaker 4: the Midwest where Trump is going to give billions of

221
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 4: dollars to Argentina and now we're going to buy Argentinian.

222
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 3: Beef because the price beef is too high in this country.

223
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:35,320
Speaker 4: And the cattle farmers are like, what the fuck were

224
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 4: we just voted you back into office and you're screwing

225
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:38,800
Speaker 4: this already?

226
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:40,080
Speaker 5: Yes, and he is.

227
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:43,200
Speaker 4: And the answer is he's screwing you already. People should

228
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,000
Speaker 4: have known this the first time and not done this

229
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 4: the second time. But here we are learning these lessons

230
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:49,439
Speaker 4: all over again.

231
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,080
Speaker 1: And I mean, this is the other thing that I

232
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 1: would say about where we are at this moment. It's

233
00:12:55,200 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 1: that we one of the big problems about Trump one point, oh,

234
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,840
Speaker 1: was that you could never convince people that Trump was

235
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:05,199
Speaker 1: going to do what he said he was going to

236
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 1: do because he wasn't able to do them the last time.

237
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:11,319
Speaker 1: And I think that's a real so talk about.

238
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,640
Speaker 4: That well, I mean I I mean, when he was

239
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 4: running for reelection in twenty twenty, I talked to one

240
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,520
Speaker 4: of his top advisors who said, you know, if he

241
00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:20,559
Speaker 4: gets back into the White House a second time, it's

242
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 4: going to be trump Ism on steroids. And now what

243
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:26,600
Speaker 4: we're getting we didn't get that because Joe Biden won

244
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:29,080
Speaker 4: in twenty twenty. What we're getting now is trump Ism

245
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 4: on steroids and crystal mas. We're getting just sort of

246
00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:38,880
Speaker 4: Trump unleashed. You know, every dark, you know, horrible thing

247
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:41,240
Speaker 4: that's going on inside of him is just being unleashed

248
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:44,880
Speaker 4: on all of us, and it's it's manifesting itself at Oh,

249
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,719
Speaker 4: I'm just going to destroy a giant part of the

250
00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 4: White House complex. And you know, I tell people buckle

251
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:55,040
Speaker 4: up because I think there's You have to understand the

252
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:58,360
Speaker 4: way his mind works. He thinks, he thinks out very

253
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,080
Speaker 4: devious schemes, and then as soon he's achieved one of

254
00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 4: those schemes, his mind is already working on the next one.

255
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 4: And I would not be You look at these these

256
00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:08,680
Speaker 4: renderings of what the ballroom is going to look like.

257
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:10,959
Speaker 4: Compared to the rest of the White House, it's ninety

258
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:14,319
Speaker 4: thousand square foot compared to the White House Executive Residents

259
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:16,960
Speaker 4: itself is fifty five thousand if you exclude the East

260
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 4: and West wings. My guess is he already has in

261
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 4: mind that he would like to demolish the West wing

262
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,720
Speaker 4: and rebuild the West wing to look like the East wing.

263
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 4: And so you just have to understand this is how

264
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 4: he works, this is how the people around him work.

265
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 4: They will lie to the public and say, oh, no,

266
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,560
Speaker 4: it's not going to touch the existing building, and then

267
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 4: they'll blow it the fuck up now, and it's going

268
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 4: to say, oh, that's all we're going to do. We're

269
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:40,360
Speaker 4: just going to do the East wing, and then guess

270
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 4: what the bulldozers are going to show up to knock

271
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 4: down the West wing.

272
00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:47,640
Speaker 3: Is this is just the.

273
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 4: New normal that we're in right now, or the totally

274
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:54,240
Speaker 4: fucked up abnormal that we're in right now. It's just

275
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:57,680
Speaker 4: going to continue. And I think what we're building up to,

276
00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:00,120
Speaker 4: in my view, so we're building up to a a

277
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 4: massive voter revolt in twenty twenty six, I think, and

278
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 4: we can talk about that, and I think that is

279
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,600
Speaker 4: going to keep building up to a massive voter revolt

280
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 4: in twenty twenty eight.

281
00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:12,840
Speaker 1: You know, one of the things that I'm glad you

282
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:18,600
Speaker 1: talked about here is that I truly believe that this

283
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,080
Speaker 1: is not I mean, he's the most unpopular he's ever been,

284
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 1: yes ever, and there's a reason for that, because my

285
00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,080
Speaker 1: man does not give a fuck. I think that what

286
00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 1: happened was Trump one point zero was a disaster for

287
00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 1: a lot of people. But you know, COVID was an

288
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:39,360
Speaker 1: incredible kind of amnesiatic, right. It created a sort of amnesia.

289
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:42,880
Speaker 1: People were traumatized. They didn't remember, they didn't know what happened.

290
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 1: And then Biden made I think, really the biggest mistake

291
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:51,200
Speaker 1: that anyone has ever made as a in the in

292
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,200
Speaker 1: the in the messaging world, which is he really didn't

293
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 1: do any interviews. So everyone got mad. You know, the

294
00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 1: mainstream media was pissed at him. Everybody forgot that he

295
00:15:59,920 --> 00:16:03,280
Speaker 1: was president. People stopped caring about it, and then you

296
00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 1: and I mean, is.

297
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:07,200
Speaker 4: That his something There's also something stupid that was going

298
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 4: on in the media, and let's just face it, where

299
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,040
Speaker 4: they felt this is where the both siding thing became

300
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:15,560
Speaker 4: so toxic and poisonous, correct, where it was like, well,

301
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 4: we were so tough on Trump because he was an

302
00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:20,920
Speaker 4: out of control maniam by Democratic zelot and so on,

303
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,040
Speaker 4: that we have to treat Biden as you know, this

304
00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:27,480
Speaker 4: nefarious thing that's happening as well, and he just wasn't

305
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:31,040
Speaker 4: right just exactly. I wanted to bring broadband to the

306
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:34,840
Speaker 4: masses and help you rail lines and you know, do

307
00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 4: things that like presidents in the twentieth century did. If

308
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,280
Speaker 4: Joe Biden maybe made one big mistake, it was that

309
00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 4: he kind of acted like a twentieth century president in

310
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,720
Speaker 4: a world where Donald Trump and the Republicans don't give

311
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 4: a fuck and they're just going to try to ram

312
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,200
Speaker 4: everything down your throat and when you get pissed about it,

313
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 4: they're just going to troll and taunt their way out

314
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:57,040
Speaker 4: of it. And the Biden messaging machine was just way

315
00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 4: behind that curve.

316
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 1: I don't, yeah, send them all to the Hague, I

317
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:06,679
Speaker 1: mean send that those That was the worst messaging. And

318
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 1: you know, I would say to them, you guys, like

319
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 1: nobody knows what you're doing, So nobody knows what you're doing.

320
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 1: Nobody knows what you're doing. And and it was like,

321
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:22,200
Speaker 1: and I do think, like, you cannot You absolutely just can't.

322
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,040
Speaker 1: You can't just sort of pray that people are going

323
00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:26,440
Speaker 1: to be able to figure out what you're doing.

324
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:26,960
Speaker 5: Yeah.

325
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,040
Speaker 4: But and this is where I have a beef with

326
00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:32,440
Speaker 4: the media because Biden being old and stumbling and stuttering,

327
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 4: or they're messaging not being good or whatever whatever the

328
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 4: fuck that was going wrong when Joe Biden was president.

329
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,560
Speaker 4: None of that measures up to what Donald Trump did

330
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:43,879
Speaker 4: in his first term or the way his first term ended.

331
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:45,960
Speaker 4: And it doesn't measure up to the threat that he

332
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,480
Speaker 4: posed during those four years when he was a disgraced.

333
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:50,000
Speaker 3: Ex president of office. It doesn't measure.

334
00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 4: So we're kind of gotten ourselves into as you know,

335
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:56,080
Speaker 4: as my mother likes to say, you make your bed,

336
00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:59,240
Speaker 4: you lie in it. And I think that the press

337
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:01,840
Speaker 4: is now, you know, kind of getting their noses rubbed

338
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:05,800
Speaker 4: in it. There the Pentagon, the Pentagon, the press gets

339
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,920
Speaker 4: kicked out of They've got and they have.

340
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:14,240
Speaker 1: A new press corps. It's the Pizza Gate guy. That guy,

341
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:15,440
Speaker 1: I love that guy.

342
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,200
Speaker 3: Right, there's like TV, but also.

343
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,960
Speaker 1: Then there's there's pizza there's Jack Pasobiac.

344
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:24,640
Speaker 3: Jack the Pizzagate guy.

345
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I love Jack Pisobia, so.

346
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, so, and it's Brian Glenn in the Oval office.

347
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,000
Speaker 4: And you know, I'm just kind of waiting. And the

348
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 4: way that the press this just this past week has

349
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 4: covered Trump bulldozing the East wing of the White House

350
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:45,080
Speaker 4: has just been a colossal failure. It has just been

351
00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,919
Speaker 4: an abysmal failure in terms of coverage. It doesn't it

352
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,119
Speaker 4: has not met the moment for the last nine or

353
00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:53,000
Speaker 4: ten months. It didn't meet it this past week. And

354
00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:55,879
Speaker 4: I think that is why people are gravitating the podcasts

355
00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:58,040
Speaker 4: and independent media, new media and so on.

356
00:18:58,080 --> 00:18:58,800
Speaker 3: They're just like.

357
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 4: It's just sort of like it's also part.

358
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 1: Of it is like serious, you can't there is when

359
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 1: one party no longer believes in democracy, then how do

360
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:16,440
Speaker 1: you say, like one side is bad and the other

361
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:19,600
Speaker 1: side wants to give you glasses, wants insurance to pay

362
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,840
Speaker 1: for glasses. Like I do think that the media is

363
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 1: so small right now, Like I don't know where you

364
00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:28,640
Speaker 1: get that reporting that you need in order to have

365
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:33,439
Speaker 1: checks and balances. Like independent media is great. I have

366
00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:36,760
Speaker 1: a substack. You have a substack. You have a humongous substack.

367
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:38,440
Speaker 1: I have a tiny, tiny substack.

368
00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 3: Well, I'm going to just work.

369
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,080
Speaker 1: I have a little I said a little bit, but

370
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,439
Speaker 1: but but the point is, like there's a lot of

371
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:49,479
Speaker 1: great opinion stuff on substack, but like the reporting is expensive.

372
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,240
Speaker 4: And it's expensive now, and I'm trying to do a

373
00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:53,679
Speaker 4: little bit more of that. Like I went down to

374
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:54,160
Speaker 4: the White.

375
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 3: House this week. I talk to people about the East

376
00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:57,440
Speaker 3: Wing coming down.

377
00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 1: Did they chase you out of the park.

378
00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:03,359
Speaker 4: No, I mean they have basically locked down the park

379
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 4: and cordoned off and put up so much construction.

380
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:12,160
Speaker 1: Explain what's happened. So the East wing, the Treasury Department

381
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,240
Speaker 1: faces the East Wing, and so people who are working

382
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:18,840
Speaker 1: in Treasury started posting pictures of the demolition.

383
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:20,960
Speaker 4: And then the Treasury Department said, we don't want our

384
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:24,840
Speaker 4: employees to send out any more pictures, and you know,

385
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,520
Speaker 4: and then they did it anyway. And I mean, so

386
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,240
Speaker 4: what I did was I kind of know the grounds

387
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 4: and how they work, and where the fences are and

388
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,160
Speaker 4: the gaps and the fences and stuff. So I knew

389
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,879
Speaker 4: I had to go to basically the south facing entrance

390
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:38,920
Speaker 4: of the Treasury Department, And if you look through a

391
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 4: little tiny crack in the fence and hold your iPhone

392
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:42,679
Speaker 4: sixteenth up.

393
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:43,600
Speaker 1: It's like Mosca.

394
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:47,400
Speaker 4: You consume it all the way and see the destruction

395
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:49,679
Speaker 4: of the East Wing. So that's what I did, and

396
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 4: talk to some folks down there about you know, it's

397
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:55,520
Speaker 4: kind of become a little bit of a dystopian tourist attraction.

398
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:58,480
Speaker 4: Molly and that course, they're like, just like regular Americans

399
00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 4: tourists are on vacation who are going over there to

400
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 4: look at the East Wing being torn down and loaded

401
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,600
Speaker 4: onto dump trucks and cart it out. But they've put

402
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:10,560
Speaker 4: up so much fencing and construction barriers and things around

403
00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 4: the project. They've tried to make it very difficult for

404
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:17,280
Speaker 4: people to see what's happening. But they forget the fact that, oh,

405
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,400
Speaker 4: there are people in the Treasury Department, we take pictures.

406
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,200
Speaker 4: There's a lady on Twitter last night who posted a picture.

407
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:25,440
Speaker 4: She flew over her flight car. She flew over it,

408
00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,960
Speaker 4: and she put out this beautiful picture. It's just so sad.

409
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:31,919
Speaker 4: The whole goddamn East Wing is gone.

410
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,919
Speaker 1: It's just dirt, and more importantly than anything, it's not

411
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:36,120
Speaker 1: his house to destroy.

412
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,760
Speaker 4: It's not his house to destroy. I talked to a

413
00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:42,159
Speaker 4: White House historian who was the chief historian for the

414
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:43,720
Speaker 4: White House Historical Society.

415
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, that guy must be fucking is he.

416
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:47,240
Speaker 5: Mad or is he sad?

417
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:49,560
Speaker 3: He's so mad and sad.

418
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:52,840
Speaker 4: He said he calls himself, this guy, Ed Lengele, calls

419
00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:58,159
Speaker 4: himself a conservative and said that Tom would, Yeah, Thomas

420
00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:02,680
Speaker 4: Jefferson would be ballistically insane over what Donald Trump has done,

421
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:04,879
Speaker 4: and that the founding fathers are getting smacked in the

422
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 4: face because they did not want the White House to

423
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:10,639
Speaker 4: be a palace. They didn't want it to be a

424
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:14,800
Speaker 4: symbol of the aristocracy. This is exactly what Donald Trump

425
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:18,720
Speaker 4: pulls up the pictures of President Liberacci's ballroom. That's exactly

426
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:21,399
Speaker 4: what he's trying to pull off. And it's just not

427
00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:22,120
Speaker 4: who we are.

428
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:24,919
Speaker 1: And I think people, I think it is who we

429
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 1: are at this point. I mean that's a difference Trump

430
00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:30,879
Speaker 1: one point two point oh is one point oh is like,

431
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:32,960
Speaker 1: this is not who we are. Two point I was like, Nope,

432
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:33,760
Speaker 1: this is who we are.

433
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:34,320
Speaker 3: Well.

434
00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:36,879
Speaker 4: And and the fact that you have corporate sponsors like

435
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:38,120
Speaker 4: their NASCAR.

436
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:41,200
Speaker 3: Racing cars, Google Altria.

437
00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:43,560
Speaker 4: I mean you go through the list of the sponsors.

438
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,119
Speaker 1: Pretty bad, pretty seazy.

439
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:47,160
Speaker 4: It's pretty pretty swampy.

440
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:53,639
Speaker 1: Coinbase coin coin base coin base me Metaea, I mean meadow.

441
00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:57,400
Speaker 4: Does it get more toxic? I mean, it's it's pretty disgusting.

442
00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:01,080
Speaker 1: It's I mean, I love Meta because have note because

443
00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 1: they don't give a fuck, right Like they're like they

444
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:07,600
Speaker 1: make tobacco companies look like children's charities.

445
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 3: Basically.

446
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:11,160
Speaker 4: Yes, for a factoid for people to keep in mind,

447
00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:14,800
Speaker 4: the existing executive mansion of the White House excluding the

448
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:18,119
Speaker 4: East and West wings, is about fifty five thousand square feet.

449
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:22,680
Speaker 4: The ballroom is ninety thousand squa. This is going to

450
00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,200
Speaker 4: look like, you know, a back to the future too.

451
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:29,560
Speaker 4: Biff whatever his name was, monstrosity. And I mean there

452
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:31,680
Speaker 4: are already folks who are saying the next Democratic president

453
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:33,639
Speaker 4: who gets in there, if we're allowed to have one again,

454
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,639
Speaker 4: should just tear the fucking thing down.

455
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,199
Speaker 1: And I also think, like it's not you know, we

456
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:41,480
Speaker 1: have to just assume that we are going to have

457
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 1: free and fair elections and that we are going to

458
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:47,360
Speaker 1: fight to preserve our American democracy. And this will be

459
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:53,400
Speaker 1: a very sad blip on the radar screen of what's happening.

460
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:56,119
Speaker 1: But I do think like we're going to need to

461
00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:59,840
Speaker 1: have a real We're gonna need to have a real

462
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 1: come to Jesus moment about like anti corruption legislation, and

463
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:06,679
Speaker 1: you know it's got.

464
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:10,640
Speaker 3: To be mixing type era where we just passed laws to.

465
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,400
Speaker 1: Prevent steroids and steroids. Yeah.

466
00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:16,200
Speaker 4: No, I mean when Steve Bannon is saying things like, well,

467
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,000
Speaker 4: he's just going to run again, and the lady with

468
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 4: the economist goes, but.

469
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,919
Speaker 3: Isn't that violating the spirits of the twenty second Amendment?

470
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:27,879
Speaker 1: Now it's like, yes, not even this verit, But you know,

471
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:31,320
Speaker 1: like Steve Bannon is saying that, because of course Steve

472
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,760
Speaker 1: Banner is. If Steve Bannon wasn't saying that, you'd be worried, because,

473
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:38,399
Speaker 1: like Steve Bannon knows that the only thing worse for

474
00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:42,240
Speaker 1: Trump then being a danger to the Constitution, which he

475
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,880
Speaker 1: isn't give a fuck about, is being a lame duck.

476
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,680
Speaker 1: So these guys do not want you to think he's

477
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,560
Speaker 1: the lame duck. But I'm telling you he will be

478
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:53,719
Speaker 1: eighty three years old, not all he will be So

479
00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:55,800
Speaker 1: this time he was the oldest person ever to be

480
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,960
Speaker 1: president at seventy nine. So now he's going to run again,

481
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:02,040
Speaker 1: and he will be four years older than the oldest

482
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:03,320
Speaker 1: person ever to be president.

483
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:06,880
Speaker 4: I tell people though Fidel Castro living to live into

484
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:08,440
Speaker 4: his nineties, you know what I mean.

485
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:10,600
Speaker 1: So like, you know, but it doesn't. But you know,

486
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:11,359
Speaker 1: it's not up.

487
00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:12,720
Speaker 3: People has a long shelf life.

488
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,400
Speaker 1: Sadly, it's not up to him. It's not up to him.

489
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:18,439
Speaker 1: It's not up to him. It's up to us, the

490
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:22,440
Speaker 1: American people. And like we have our norms and institutions

491
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:24,280
Speaker 1: and we have to we have to keep going.

492
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,600
Speaker 4: And that's what gives you were saying earlier, like be optimistic,

493
00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:31,800
Speaker 4: and I you know, I'm optimistic too, because I think

494
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,640
Speaker 4: that Donald Trump, as he went out with the bang

495
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:36,000
Speaker 4: last time, is going to go out with the boon

496
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:38,679
Speaker 4: this time, and he is going to get people so

497
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:41,840
Speaker 4: pissed off and so fired up that we will see

498
00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:44,199
Speaker 4: a voter's revolt in this country. And you just have

499
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 4: to hold out hope for that.

500
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:48,679
Speaker 1: No, I mean, I think we're there. It's just a

501
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 1: question of like do we we need to make sure

502
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:55,919
Speaker 1: those people get to the polls free, fair, safe elections,

503
00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 1: and that's what we're going to see. But I'm telling

504
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:03,920
Speaker 1: you we are in Like you know, one point, oh

505
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,560
Speaker 1: was like we're in historic times. Two point zero is

506
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:12,840
Speaker 1: like we're in fucking whatever this is, man, Yeah.

507
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 4: No, I mean this is like, you know, this is

508
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:18,360
Speaker 4: the Mad Max sequel of our democracy.

509
00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 1: And we are going to have Thunderdome time, you know,

510
00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:22,720
Speaker 1: Fury Road.

511
00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:24,840
Speaker 4: We're going to have to drive through the bad guys

512
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,960
Speaker 4: and fight the bad guys and get past the bad

513
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:31,479
Speaker 4: guys to get to the green place. And I just

514
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:35,119
Speaker 4: you know, I think that people need to steal themselves

515
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:38,800
Speaker 4: for what is likely to be a long struggle. And

516
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 4: he is going to and he's already beginning to do this,

517
00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 4: become very desperate and try to concoct ways to prevent

518
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:48,359
Speaker 4: what he knows is coming from happening.

519
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:51,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, No, he doesn't want to face an investigation

520
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,879
Speaker 1: because he knows that he's going to go to jail,

521
00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:57,920
Speaker 1: just like Elon mush Mush so all in on this

522
00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 1: presidency because he knew that otherwise he'd be in big trouble.

523
00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:04,560
Speaker 4: We haven't seen the Epstein files, by the way. I'm

524
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:08,560
Speaker 4: just going to say, like, you know, there's that thing's

525
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:09,440
Speaker 4: on the horizon too.

526
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:15,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, correct, Jim Acosta, good to see you. Congressman

527
00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:22,480
Speaker 1: Jared Moscow Itz represents Florida's twenty third district. Congressman Jared Yes,

528
00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:24,600
Speaker 1: I'm here. Welcome to fast politics.

529
00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:25,360
Speaker 5: How are you doing?

530
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,119
Speaker 1: You know, how's your vacation, Ben Well?

531
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:29,520
Speaker 5: I feel like I'm semi retired.

532
00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:32,520
Speaker 1: Tell us how long have you guys been out obsession?

533
00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:34,680
Speaker 5: Oh? I think we've worked like nineteen days in the

534
00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:38,040
Speaker 5: last you know, like three months. It's some crazy number.

535
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 5: And this is being done intentional. This is how you

536
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:44,399
Speaker 5: extend the shutdown. This is how you cause pain. In

537
00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:47,359
Speaker 5: the past, we would all be stuck in Washington, away

538
00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:50,200
Speaker 5: from our families, which would force a deal. We would

539
00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,800
Speaker 5: be miserable, we would want to leave. It would force

540
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:54,639
Speaker 5: the deal so we could go home. The American people

541
00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 5: would benefit. And now by sending us home, what they're

542
00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,680
Speaker 5: doing is they want us home, They want us comfortable. Right.

543
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:02,480
Speaker 5: They don't want us near the TV cameras, they don't

544
00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:05,480
Speaker 5: want us talking to each other. Right to build a

545
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:08,320
Speaker 5: coalition to solve the problem. This is all intentional by

546
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:11,560
Speaker 5: Mike Johnson. And as an added bonus, we don't get

547
00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 5: the vote on releasing the Epstein files, so.

548
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:17,520
Speaker 1: How much of this is about Like he won't swear

549
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:19,400
Speaker 1: in Alita Garhalva.

550
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:21,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's all about the Epstein files. That's one hundred

551
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:25,480
Speaker 5: percent about the Epstein files, and I love it. James

552
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:27,280
Speaker 5: Comer came out a couple days ago.

553
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:31,120
Speaker 1: Remind us who James Comer is besides being your mortal eneme.

554
00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 5: So James is a dear friend of mine and we've

555
00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:36,680
Speaker 5: been close for a while now and I'm very proud

556
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:39,680
Speaker 5: of him. He happens to be the chairman of Oversight,

557
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:41,920
Speaker 5: which has been a great gig for him. It's worked

558
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 5: out beautifully.

559
00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:45,320
Speaker 1: He's not known to be a scholar.

560
00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:48,960
Speaker 5: Well, no, look, James is calm, he's collected. He keeps

561
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 5: it classy all the time. That's what I love about him.

562
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:52,760
Speaker 5: Quite frankly, there's.

563
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:56,240
Speaker 1: A response to the fact that he has many times

564
00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 1: called you a smurf.

565
00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:59,760
Speaker 5: Well, look, I think his vernacular is a little different,

566
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:02,040
Speaker 5: and that's fine. We have a big tent, Molly, right.

567
00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:06,120
Speaker 5: We got to allow people to express themselves in different ways.

568
00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:08,240
Speaker 5: But yeah, you have the press conference the other day.

569
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:10,280
Speaker 5: He read the entire thing because he can read it

570
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:12,960
Speaker 5: a ninth grade level, which is good. And he basically

571
00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:15,520
Speaker 5: said he's looked at the Epstein files and Trump's not

572
00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 5: in them. But Bill Clinton is in them. And so

573
00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:21,880
Speaker 5: I say to my Republican friends, Okay, great news. If

574
00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:24,520
Speaker 5: that's the case, then release the files. What are you

575
00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:28,240
Speaker 5: protecting Bill Clinton? Now? So the White House, the Republicans

576
00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:29,960
Speaker 5: in the House, the Republicans in the Senate.

577
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 1: That is amazing too, because there's been reporting that said

578
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 1: the FBI had one hundred people redacting Trump's name from

579
00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:38,200
Speaker 1: the Epstein files.

580
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:40,280
Speaker 5: Well, look, if he's not in them, Okay, if he's

581
00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:42,400
Speaker 5: not in the Epstein files, then they can release him

582
00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:45,720
Speaker 5: like they're protecting Bill Clinton. Now, that's what the House,

583
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:48,840
Speaker 5: in the Senate and is all the threats, all of

584
00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:51,920
Speaker 5: the political capital. Look at the political capital they have

585
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:55,360
Speaker 5: spent on this, all to protect Bill Clinton. Okay, James,

586
00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:57,960
Speaker 5: I take James at his word. We've always taken James

587
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 5: at his word. He is the face of truth. And

588
00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 5: so if what he is saying is accurate that Trump

589
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:05,880
Speaker 5: is not in him, then released the files. Let's get ready.

590
00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:07,440
Speaker 1: He is seeing Trump's in the files.

591
00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:09,680
Speaker 5: Oh. I think Trump is definitely in the files. Whether

592
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 5: there's anything illegal, I think probably not, because I do

593
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 5: think that probably would have come out. But there is

594
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:19,960
Speaker 5: definitely stuff in there that is thoroughly embarrassing maybe pictures, okay,

595
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 5: and he just doesn't want it out there because he

596
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:24,840
Speaker 5: doesn't want to be embarrassed by it. I also think

597
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:27,640
Speaker 5: Molly in fairness, there are lots of people probably in there.

598
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 5: Some of them may be on the Democratics Guide, all.

599
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 1: Of them pieces of SHD.

600
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:35,520
Speaker 5: High net worth individuals. But remember they were the one,

601
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:40,000
Speaker 5: I mean literally the FBI director okay, and the second

602
00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:42,760
Speaker 5: in command at the FBI. Both of them got their

603
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:46,360
Speaker 5: positions Cash Bettel, Dan Bongino. They both got their positions

604
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:49,520
Speaker 5: on the Epstein issue. They can't paignt on the Epstein issue.

605
00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:52,000
Speaker 5: They got in there, and then it's like nothing to

606
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:53,840
Speaker 5: see what listen. That's why I said a cash hotel

607
00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:56,160
Speaker 5: in the hearing when that picture came out of the

608
00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:59,320
Speaker 5: body and the writing with Trump's signature, and they were like,

609
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:01,280
Speaker 5: that's not his signature. And then there were hundreds of

610
00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:03,959
Speaker 5: documents that showed the same signature. And then they were like, well,

611
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:06,440
Speaker 5: Trump doesn't really doodle or draw. And then they were like, oh,

612
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 5: there's hundreds of them at auction that are his doodles

613
00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 5: and drugs. He's actually a decent dudelerb.

614
00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:13,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, he draws pretty well, let us take a moment

615
00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:15,240
Speaker 1: to pour one out.

616
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:16,840
Speaker 5: We don't like to give him any credit, but let's

617
00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:18,560
Speaker 5: take a moment. Kind of an artist. And I said

618
00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:20,320
Speaker 5: to myself, We'll wait a second. This is the guy

619
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,800
Speaker 5: that had sued the Post, sued the Times, sued the

620
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:28,800
Speaker 5: Wall Street Journal, suit ABC, NBC. Right, and the Epstein

621
00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,000
Speaker 5: estate puts out this document that he says it's a

622
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:34,000
Speaker 5: forgery of his signature and a complete forgery. And they

623
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:37,040
Speaker 5: don't sue the Epstein estate, The FBI doesn't open up

624
00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:40,160
Speaker 5: an investigation. What I took in that was they didn't

625
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:41,959
Speaker 5: want to do that because then we would confirm that

626
00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:43,120
Speaker 5: that document is indeed real.

627
00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:46,320
Speaker 1: I mean, the other reason why you would think it

628
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:51,080
Speaker 1: would be true was because now Glaine Maxwell is in

629
00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:53,440
Speaker 1: basically the chicest prison.

630
00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:55,800
Speaker 5: What are you talking about, Molly, Well, hold on a second,

631
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:56,840
Speaker 5: I got to correct you on this.

632
00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a camp, it's not a prison, right, oh?

633
00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:03,560
Speaker 5: Old, Then why are you suspicious at all? That Trump's

634
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:07,440
Speaker 5: former personal attorney who is second at command at the OJ.

635
00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 1: Todd Blanche For those keeping track at home, he.

636
00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 5: Went down to meet Glane right as one does, as

637
00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 5: one does, and by one does I mean, never in

638
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:18,600
Speaker 5: the history of America has deputy Attorney general gone to

639
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:20,800
Speaker 5: a prison to meet with someone. But as one does,

640
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:24,080
Speaker 5: Trump's former personal attorney goes to meet with Glane. That's

641
00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:27,320
Speaker 5: a statement from Glane in the transcript that said, oh,

642
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 5: she doesn't remember Trump ever being around. Oh and then

643
00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:34,840
Speaker 5: within twenty four hours she's transferred. Were you think that's suspicious?

644
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:36,800
Speaker 5: I don't know. It looks above bored to meet Molly.

645
00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:40,520
Speaker 1: Okay, So Jesse wants to talk about the shutdown. He's

646
00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:43,960
Speaker 1: bored with the Epstein files, but the shutdown is caught.

647
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 1: The Epstein files sort of caused the shutdown in some

648
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:47,920
Speaker 1: weird way.

649
00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 5: The Epstein thing is a piece. It's like, you want

650
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 5: to know why Congress is not there? That's the Epstein piece.

651
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:55,560
Speaker 5: It didn't cause the shutdown, but it is why Johnson

652
00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:57,840
Speaker 5: will not bring us back to Washington, which is extending

653
00:32:57,840 --> 00:32:58,320
Speaker 5: the shutdown.

654
00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:01,479
Speaker 1: So let's talk about the shut down. We are like

655
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:06,840
Speaker 1: on the precipice of bad shit. So November one, premiums

656
00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:09,480
Speaker 1: go way up in a bunch of different states, Nevada,

657
00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:13,160
Speaker 1: et cetera. Then also we have food stamps run out.

658
00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:16,680
Speaker 1: These are big things. It depends on the state, depends

659
00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:19,800
Speaker 1: on what we had wick. They found some money for WICK,

660
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:23,240
Speaker 1: by the way, probably illegal, but who's going to complain

661
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:26,440
Speaker 1: because it's women and infinite assistance. And forty percent of

662
00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:31,280
Speaker 1: American children are on WICK, which is absolutely insane number. Right,

663
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:34,600
Speaker 1: Like forty percent of this country qualifies for food so

664
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,600
Speaker 1: their babies don't starve. Richest country in the world. But

665
00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 1: talk us through the sort of like there are a

666
00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:43,600
Speaker 1: lot of really scary deadlines happening soon.

667
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:45,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, and look, it's why when they're like, go Democrats

668
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:47,720
Speaker 5: shut down the government. That's not the case at all.

669
00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:51,720
Speaker 5: I voted against a cr that didn't have the requisite

670
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 5: funding for healthcare. Okay, we've been talking about the fact

671
00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:57,720
Speaker 5: that the money on these subsidies was running out. Okay,

672
00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:00,480
Speaker 5: this was well known to Republicans, well known difference, and

673
00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:03,840
Speaker 5: there's a bipartisan coalition many in fact, to extend the

674
00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:06,680
Speaker 5: subsidies so that Americans' health care costs do not rise.

675
00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:09,600
Speaker 5: We were saying we need to do that now, okay,

676
00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:13,120
Speaker 5: and Republicans were saying nothing. Okay, you know, I know,

677
00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:15,640
Speaker 5: Republicans all of a sudden like pretend to be holier

678
00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:18,279
Speaker 5: than now on on healthcare. But to be clear, they

679
00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:20,720
Speaker 5: have only been against stuff. They've never been for anything.

680
00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:23,520
Speaker 5: They're still in the concept of a planned stage. They've

681
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:27,080
Speaker 5: been there since two thousand and eight. There's no plan.

682
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:29,839
Speaker 5: There is no draft of a plan. I would say

683
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:32,520
Speaker 5: to Speaker Mike Johnson, if you don't like our extension

684
00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:35,040
Speaker 5: of the subsidies, put your plan forward and how to

685
00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:37,920
Speaker 5: lower people's health care costs for a vote, Mike, not

686
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:40,560
Speaker 5: going topend because there's no plan. They've never done it, remember,

687
00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:42,680
Speaker 5: and that's why it's still in You know, this is

688
00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:46,120
Speaker 5: a product that's never coming to market, Malli. But right now,

689
00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:48,840
Speaker 5: if they just took the CR with the extension of

690
00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:51,520
Speaker 5: the subsidies, it would pass. It would reopen government and

691
00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:53,880
Speaker 5: people's health care costs would stay the same or they

692
00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:55,399
Speaker 5: would go down. Now you might say to me Moley,

693
00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 5: hold on, Jared, we're thirty eight trillion dollars in debt,

694
00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:00,000
Speaker 5: a lot of it put on by Trump. We can't

695
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:02,920
Speaker 5: afford that. And I would say, well, we need thirty

696
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:06,320
Speaker 5: billion dollars for the subsidies. Trump just sent forty billion

697
00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:09,440
Speaker 5: to Argentina. Right, Congress did not take a vote on

698
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:12,760
Speaker 5: so maybe that money should have been used for people's

699
00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:15,520
Speaker 5: healthcare rather than going to prop up the economy of

700
00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:19,240
Speaker 5: Argentina and the beef market in Argentina, which the American

701
00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:20,640
Speaker 5: farmers are unhappy with.

702
00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:24,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you don't get to cuos in an autocracy.

703
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:26,880
Speaker 5: Well, and if you want to know how broken things

704
00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:29,560
Speaker 5: are in Washington in general, right, I want to give

705
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:31,880
Speaker 5: you two dichotomies. Obviously, we want the war in the

706
00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:34,560
Speaker 5: middies to end. Everyone wants that to come to an end.

707
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:37,320
Speaker 5: But Trump literally made a deal with a maas with

708
00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:39,440
Speaker 5: great we wanted the hostages out make a deal. I

709
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:41,120
Speaker 5: supported the deal that he made with the moss but

710
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:43,520
Speaker 5: he's not willing to make a deal with Democrats on healthcare.

711
00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:47,440
Speaker 5: Like that is how bad things are that it's easier

712
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:50,080
Speaker 5: to sit down with terrorists and get a deal than

713
00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:53,520
Speaker 5: it is with the other political party and bring down

714
00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:56,839
Speaker 5: the premiums for people's health insurance. Do the right thing,

715
00:35:56,920 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 5: help American citizens, not illegals, not the bullshit that they

716
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:02,800
Speaker 5: were spreading, which they don't say anymore because the American

717
00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:05,200
Speaker 5: people didn't buy it because it was a lie. Okay,

718
00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:07,520
Speaker 5: I got twenty five thousand people just in my district

719
00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:11,560
Speaker 5: that immediately lose their health insurance when those subsidies stop,

720
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:14,280
Speaker 5: and then they have another one hundred thousand people whose

721
00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:17,480
Speaker 5: insurance will immediately increase, they'll go for lower coverage, and

722
00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:19,560
Speaker 5: then that cost will get pushed off the hospitals and

723
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:21,560
Speaker 5: then still on the American tax pair.

724
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:25,760
Speaker 1: Of course. So Democrats not in the majority, so don't

725
00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:26,920
Speaker 1: have power really.

726
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:29,080
Speaker 5: Oh, you mean like the Republicans control of the House,

727
00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:30,760
Speaker 5: the Senate, the Presidency, and the Supreme Court.

728
00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:33,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I was saying. So like Mike Johnson

729
00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:36,600
Speaker 1: serves at the pleasure of Donald Trump, so basically doesn't

730
00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:37,120
Speaker 1: do anything.

731
00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:39,920
Speaker 5: Yes, the speaker gets the costplay a speaker when he's

732
00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:40,399
Speaker 5: allowed to.

733
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:44,840
Speaker 1: Right, I mean Thomas Massey clearly furious anyone else. Marjorie

734
00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:47,040
Speaker 1: Taylor Green sometimes sort.

735
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:50,000
Speaker 5: Of look at what we got going on, the misfit

736
00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:53,000
Speaker 5: toys that we have to deal with over there. Marjorie

737
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:55,239
Speaker 5: Taylor Green, who one week wants a civil war and

738
00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:57,560
Speaker 5: a national divorce and wants to split up the Union,

739
00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:00,040
Speaker 5: and the other week is like, Democrats are right, you

740
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:02,680
Speaker 5: need to extend the subsidies. So it's like, you know,

741
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:05,120
Speaker 5: that's how that's how fucked up things are.

742
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:08,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's basically the most with it Republican.

743
00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:10,600
Speaker 5: But she's also doing it because she's mad at the

744
00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:13,640
Speaker 5: President because the President wouldn't endorse her for Senate. So

745
00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:15,520
Speaker 5: she's like, now I'm just going to be against him

746
00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:16,040
Speaker 5: on anything.

747
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:19,479
Speaker 1: But that is fine. However you get there's fine.

748
00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:21,319
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, listen. And Trump has launched the war on

749
00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:24,960
Speaker 5: Thomas Massey. So Massey is responding in kind, and so, yeah,

750
00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:27,480
Speaker 5: look in a very divided Congress where Republicans only have

751
00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:29,759
Speaker 5: a small majority, Yeah, we'll take them where we can

752
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:31,080
Speaker 5: get them, Yeah, onered percent.

753
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:33,279
Speaker 1: Is there any effort to try to flip one or

754
00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:34,520
Speaker 1: two of these Republicans?

755
00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:36,080
Speaker 5: We don't have to flip them. We have them. The

756
00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:37,919
Speaker 5: problem is the speaker won't put it on the floor

757
00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:40,880
Speaker 5: mid right, Like, if the speaker were to put healthcare

758
00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:43,360
Speaker 5: on the floor, it passes, but he won't put it

759
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:43,880
Speaker 5: on the floor.

760
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:46,319
Speaker 1: But it doesn't matter. If you put it on the

761
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:49,720
Speaker 1: floor and it passes, it still dies. In the Senate.

762
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:53,240
Speaker 5: Well, I don't know. That's where the president has tremendous power.

763
00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:56,520
Speaker 5: If the President came out tomorrow in Trump fashion and

764
00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:59,359
Speaker 5: said I'm going to lower your health care it's now

765
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:02,239
Speaker 5: called trump Care, right, and he told Johnson to put

766
00:38:02,239 --> 00:38:05,359
Speaker 5: the thirty billion dollars in the Trump Care. Okay, told

767
00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:07,319
Speaker 5: soon to put the thirty billion dollars the Trump Care

768
00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:08,279
Speaker 5: and we're going to open the government.

769
00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:10,680
Speaker 1: They would do it, yeah, of course, but Donald Trump

770
00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:12,600
Speaker 1: doesn't want to do it. For today, he doesn't want

771
00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:14,920
Speaker 1: to do it. You think he caves and does it.

772
00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:17,120
Speaker 1: I don't think so. But what do you think?

773
00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:19,600
Speaker 5: Well? I think the shutdown goes to Thanksgiving. I think

774
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:22,280
Speaker 5: we're going to miss see more pain. I think traveling

775
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:24,680
Speaker 5: is going to become very difficult as more people who

776
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:27,600
Speaker 5: work at the FAA and TSA continue to miss paychecks.

777
00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:29,719
Speaker 5: I mean, how sad a state of affairs is that

778
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:32,719
Speaker 5: our federal workers miss one paycheck and they're in breadlines.

779
00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:34,320
Speaker 5: I mean, the state of Virginia declared a state of

780
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:35,560
Speaker 5: emergency over this.

781
00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:38,840
Speaker 1: It seems as if they won't compromise on Hell'scare.

782
00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:41,440
Speaker 5: It's gonna get worse before it gets better. How it

783
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:43,680
Speaker 5: gets better, I do not know. I do not know

784
00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:47,480
Speaker 5: the end. No side wants to capitulate. The Democrats are

785
00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:52,600
Speaker 5: willing to make a deal, Okay, that is true. The Republicans,

786
00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:55,320
Speaker 5: which have not made a deal with US at all

787
00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:58,759
Speaker 5: for ten months feel like we still don't need to

788
00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:00,239
Speaker 5: make a deal with these people. But again, and if

789
00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 5: they have a mandate, then then go solve it on

790
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:05,560
Speaker 5: your own. You told the American people you had a mandate,

791
00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:08,040
Speaker 5: solve it on your own. Then now there is a

792
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:11,799
Speaker 5: possibility that they could change the filibuster rules and do

793
00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:14,200
Speaker 5: this on their own. They would screw the American people.

794
00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:16,600
Speaker 5: They would cause a terrible precedent in the Senate. But

795
00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:19,279
Speaker 5: I do think the White House could do that because

796
00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:21,680
Speaker 5: the White House could start pressuring senators to do that,

797
00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,600
Speaker 5: and then the Republican senators because they want to serve

798
00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:27,239
Speaker 5: in a Senate that doesn't resemble the House, which is

799
00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:29,480
Speaker 5: what the filibuster does. If you get rid of all

800
00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:32,280
Speaker 5: of that, then basically the Senate is the House majority rules.

801
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:33,920
Speaker 5: At the end of the day, you know, they'll have

802
00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:35,880
Speaker 5: to decide whether they want to protect the institution or

803
00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:37,560
Speaker 5: if they're going to cave. I do think that becomes

804
00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:40,759
Speaker 5: a more viable alternative for Republicans the long way this

805
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:43,640
Speaker 5: goes on. Think about that again, they're willing to continue

806
00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:47,200
Speaker 5: to break institutions then make a deal with Democrats on

807
00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:47,960
Speaker 5: health insurance.

808
00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:50,759
Speaker 1: But part of it, too is that there's also a

809
00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:53,359
Speaker 1: world and where there are Democrats in the Senate who

810
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:53,920
Speaker 1: might cave.

811
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:57,560
Speaker 5: Well, we had a couple join them in the very beginning,

812
00:39:57,760 --> 00:39:59,799
Speaker 5: and that number has not grown. There are a couple

813
00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:01,839
Speaker 5: of the other day that voted obviously to pay federal

814
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:04,719
Speaker 5: workers in the military. But so far Republicans have had

815
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:09,120
Speaker 5: no shot at building a bipartisan coalition on their side,

816
00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:12,439
Speaker 5: because what are they selling, Molly, the promise that we'll

817
00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:15,080
Speaker 5: have a vote. I mean, listen, they have broken a

818
00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:19,040
Speaker 5: lot of promises to the American people, right I'm in Florida, Okay.

819
00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:22,040
Speaker 5: I mean Trump made a lot of promises to the

820
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:25,320
Speaker 5: Cuban community, to the Venezuelan community, to the Haitian community

821
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:28,840
Speaker 5: on TPS. Okay, during the campaign and broke that promise.

822
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:32,040
Speaker 1: Will you explain to us since you brought this up

823
00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:36,120
Speaker 1: and I'm interested in this. Are Latino voters who really

824
00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:39,040
Speaker 1: did cut for Trump, or at least moved towards Trump

825
00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:42,200
Speaker 1: in ways that we did not see as possible. Are

826
00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:45,880
Speaker 1: they having regret as Trump scoops up all their neighbors.

827
00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:48,960
Speaker 5: Well, just like everything else, it's all partisan, and so

828
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:54,080
Speaker 5: I do think in certain pockets there are regret. They

829
00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:56,400
Speaker 5: bought into the it's just going to be the criminals.

830
00:40:56,480 --> 00:40:59,000
Speaker 5: And as we know, we haven't even gotten all the criminals,

831
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:01,280
Speaker 5: and we're going after your you know, families.

832
00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:03,600
Speaker 1: Right, of course, this was never about the park.

833
00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:06,600
Speaker 5: And then obviously that starts hurting the hospitality industry, it

834
00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:08,680
Speaker 5: starts hurting the farming industry, which is why you started

835
00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:11,080
Speaker 5: hearing Trump talking about well if they've worked for the

836
00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,480
Speaker 5: farmer for a long period of time, Well, I didn't

837
00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:16,400
Speaker 5: know that that was an exception to our immigration laws.

838
00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:20,040
Speaker 5: So they've created a mess. Christy Gnome is a disaster.

839
00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:21,680
Speaker 5: I gotta be honest. I don't know much longer.

840
00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:26,760
Speaker 1: She stays, Wait, why she has got just got two planes? Yeah?

841
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:27,879
Speaker 5: You know, good for her?

842
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:31,080
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, I mean who likes to fly commercial?

843
00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:34,400
Speaker 5: Honestly, like I've always believed, there are still a couple

844
00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:37,960
Speaker 5: things that are by partisan left, and puppies are one

845
00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:39,439
Speaker 5: of them. And I just don't think you can shoot

846
00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:40,719
Speaker 5: a puppy in the face and get away with it.

847
00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:44,000
Speaker 1: How would she leave? Because these people have no shame?

848
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:45,400
Speaker 1: So what do you think happens?

849
00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:46,759
Speaker 5: Oh? I don't, I don't know. I don't need to

850
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:49,440
Speaker 5: figure out people's Edgit strategy. I don't know. Yes, yes,

851
00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:53,520
Speaker 5: they run for something, or they get a promotion like don.

852
00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:55,360
Speaker 1: Ji and Your's girlfriend, they get a promotion.

853
00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:58,160
Speaker 5: I think they'll be changes I Homeland at some point

854
00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:01,160
Speaker 5: because I just don't the number show Trump. You know,

855
00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:03,399
Speaker 5: when he came into office, his immigration numbers were through

856
00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:05,360
Speaker 5: the roof, and the fact that those have now leveled

857
00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:07,800
Speaker 5: off and were almost even in a lot of cases,

858
00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:11,400
Speaker 5: he's underwater ran people don't like it, which what it

859
00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:14,160
Speaker 5: tells you is that they believed in his policy, but

860
00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:19,279
Speaker 5: they did the execution, okay, has changed people's mind on that. Well,

861
00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:22,520
Speaker 5: that execution was done by Christy Nom. Don't forget that

862
00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:25,520
Speaker 5: we went into what was it a Handai facility and

863
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,240
Speaker 5: that caused an international firestorm.

864
00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:32,080
Speaker 1: With South Korea and they just and also infuriated Brian Kemp,

865
00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:34,600
Speaker 1: the governor who had worked really hard to bring this

866
00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:36,080
Speaker 1: investment from South Korea.

867
00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:38,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's exactly right. And so I think the answer

868
00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:41,239
Speaker 5: is in Florida, you will see change in pockets. There's

869
00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:43,759
Speaker 5: no doubt about that. But again, like you know, Joe

870
00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:45,640
Speaker 5: Biden has a really good quote. It's you know, don't

871
00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:48,520
Speaker 5: judge me against the almighty, judge me against the alternative. Yeah,

872
00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:51,160
Speaker 5: they might agree with us more now on this issue,

873
00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:53,279
Speaker 5: but are they willing to vote our way? Well, that's

874
00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:55,359
Speaker 5: just going to depend on the product that we put up,

875
00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:57,279
Speaker 5: the person we put up, because at the end of

876
00:42:57,320 --> 00:42:59,399
Speaker 5: the day, they're gonna we're running against somebody else.

877
00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:01,000
Speaker 1: Right, That is a good point.

878
00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:03,080
Speaker 5: But you can see the numbers in Dade County have moved.

879
00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:05,360
Speaker 5: In Dade County, the numbers have completely moved on Trump

880
00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:06,440
Speaker 5: as a result of this issue.

881
00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:10,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's what it is. Jared Moscottz, thank you friend.

882
00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:17,960
Speaker 1: Thanks Molly, no moment, perfectly, Jesse Cannon.

883
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:18,920
Speaker 2: Molly Jung fast.

884
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:19,080
Speaker 1: So.

885
00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:23,240
Speaker 2: I like to be a person who watches Steve Bannett,

886
00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:24,759
Speaker 2: even though I don't really want to look at his

887
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:28,120
Speaker 2: fashion style. And I think it's important because Bannon is

888
00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:31,000
Speaker 2: often the whisper to those who are making policy. The

889
00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:33,000
Speaker 2: way he's talking here is pretty disturbing.

890
00:43:33,120 --> 00:43:35,600
Speaker 1: Steve Bannon has said this again and again and again.

891
00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:37,840
Speaker 1: He's been saying that Donald Trump is going to be

892
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:40,640
Speaker 1: president in twenty twenty eight, that'll run for a third term.

893
00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:44,399
Speaker 1: The constitution says he can't. The man will be eighty three.

894
00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:48,720
Speaker 1: He'll try. Donald Trump will try to do anything he can,

895
00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:50,960
Speaker 1: and that's why people have to stand up to him

896
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:54,040
Speaker 1: and tell him no. I think that the reason why

897
00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:57,600
Speaker 1: Steve Bannon keeps doing this is twofold. This helps them, right,

898
00:43:57,719 --> 00:44:00,560
Speaker 1: they don't want Trump to be a lame day because

899
00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:04,960
Speaker 1: they feel like that reduces his power. So he's of

900
00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:07,520
Speaker 1: course going to say that he's going to run. And

901
00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:10,160
Speaker 1: then the other reason is because these guys they don't

902
00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:13,359
Speaker 1: want democracy. And you know, if people are upset, they'll say, well,

903
00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:17,120
Speaker 1: we're just trolling. So this fits the pattern of what

904
00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:19,600
Speaker 1: they do. And I would have been shocked if they

905
00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:22,560
Speaker 1: were like, well, he's constitutionally limited from a third term.

906
00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:25,399
Speaker 1: Trump is going to try all the stuff. And look,

907
00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:28,760
Speaker 1: maybe this is deep Bannon trying to increase Trump's power

908
00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:31,319
Speaker 1: so he doesn't look like a lame duck, or you know,

909
00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:34,320
Speaker 1: maybe this is some other thing. Maybe this is Bannon

910
00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:37,480
Speaker 1: trying to get back in good graces with Trump. I mean,

911
00:44:37,520 --> 00:44:41,040
Speaker 1: there's all sorts of reasons to think that Steve Bannon

912
00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:43,040
Speaker 1: is serving the Steep Bannon agenda.

913
00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:45,800
Speaker 2: I mean, he does say there is a plan in place,

914
00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:48,120
Speaker 2: which I do believe. I don't know that they can

915
00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:49,919
Speaker 2: get that put across because these people are.

916
00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:51,400
Speaker 1: Morons, thank God.

917
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:55,719
Speaker 2: Yes, I do believe that they probably are plotting to

918
00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:59,040
Speaker 2: prop him up, as he looks like a drained ever

919
00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:01,640
Speaker 2: Palpatine at eighty three years old.
