Attention. You're listening to the top huff radio show, America's home for conservative
not bitter talk radio. Be advised that the content of this program has been
documented to prevent and even cure liberalism, and listening may cause you to lean
to the right. Here's your conservative but not Bitter host, Tod Huff.
All right, my friends, I am actually I was like glanced down in
my shirt as I'm getting the microphone ready to rumble here to day. I've
got the old logo on the old tot Huff Show polo. You're gonna have
to get a new one, which you can get. I don't think we
have polos, but we got other merchandise at the tot Huffshow dot com store.
But it's a pleasure to be here today, my friends. Thank you
for joining us. Want to pick up, excuse me where we left off
yesterday. I guess I want to continue our discussion either way. If you
want to be a part of that, always free to email Todd a y
To at to should dot com. You can also text three one seven two
one zero twenty eight thirty three one seven two one zero two eight three zero.
Message and data rates apply. So I want to talk about these this
list of nine speakers that has been, of course introduced. I want to
talk about just who they are and where we go from here, of course
is a different I mean that's it's going to be where we go right.
I mean, there's all this discussion and embarrassment, which, by the way,
I think is a tactic to get these conservative republics to fall into line.
Oh, we gotta do this, we gotta do it now. The
world is watching. Oh the world. The world doesn't even know we have
a thing called the House of Representatives. Heck, my friends, I'm not
sure if half of America knows that there's a thing called the House of Representatives.
You ever see these men on the street interviews? I mean, it's
funny, but it's not. It's not funny because these people, these people
say some of the most outlandish things you can ever imagine. Our public school
system is absolutely atrocious. How can someone graduate high school? Someone tell me
this, How can someone graduate high school who believes that America was founded in
nineteen twenty seven or nineteen seventy two. Who knows I mean that we fought
for our independence from Portugal, or from Colombia, or from Greece or so
who knows. These are the sorts of questions you get, or excuse me,
answers you get. And these men on the street interviews the speaker.
The world is not waiting with baited breath on who the next Speaker of the
House is going to be. I got it, by the way, I've
got an op ed, which I think is a stupid op ed. I
just put it in today's stack of stuff written by ceing In. I go
on CNN dot com. They want you to think that people like me,
don't. They want you to think that people like me only go to Fox
News, which I gotta be honest, I'm not a big fan of Fox
one candid now, I will tell you when they they came to the house
for the interview several years ago, some of the nicest, best people I
think you could possibly start with on an interview like that. They were really
good people. Mike Tobin and his producer and his cameraman. That was that
was good, good people. I'm not talking about them, I'm just talking
about those running the show at Fox. I'm not sitting here waiting to see
what Fox says before I say it. In fact, recently I've been saying
a lot of things. You can say the polar opposite of Fox. A
lot of conservatives have been saying that I don't think Fox is the answer,
but I think Foxes has done something that no one else in the mainstream media
care to do, which was, at least try to present try to present
the argument in such a way that or at least the news in such a
way that it gave the other side to an opportunity to present its argument.
And I'm not Look, there's plenty of things to not be happy with Fox
about, but I just don't sit here and read Fox News all day.
I go to places like the CNN. Stephen Collinson writes an op ed talking
about how embarrassing this is, how embarrassed senior Republican leadership is that they can't
find a speaker. Well, I gotta be honest, then do something about
it. What kind of a leader sits there in wines and bemoans, Oh,
it's so embarrassing. Get a lot forgive me, my friends. I
couldn't care less about this that they're embarrassed. I've been through this extensively.
I've been through this extensively. I don't want to keep having to repeat myself,
but it bears repeating to say. What should truly embarrassed Republican leadership is
an open border. What should truly embarrass the Republican leadership is thirty three trillion
dollars in debt. What should truly embarrass the current Republican leadership is that we
have a fire metaphorically and literally burning around the world because of the Biden administration.
What should embarrass the current Republican leadership is what happened in the previous Congress
with the Make Believe January sixth Committee and the Make Believe impeachment trials. What
should embarrass the current Republican leadership is that they did not have a red wave
in twenty twenty two. What should embarrass the current Republican leadership is that they
capitulate and they give in, and they compromise principles on a regular basis,
allowing this nation to move towards all sorts of direct well one direction has all
sorts of negative consequences, from bankrupting US to putting US at greater risk from
enemies coming across the border, from enemies firing missiles from around the world targeting
US bases, they should be embarrassed that these wars that have started all on
Biden's watch, by the way, all of them on Biden's watch, leaving
weaponry in Afghanistan that finds its way into the hands of Hamas, the terrorists
who attack Israeli's citizens on October seventh, they're embarrassed about not being able to
find a speaker. Spare me the drama. Spare me the drama. Why
would you be more embarrassed about choosing a leader than about any of those things
that I just listened, Tell me, tell me why it is a show?
Now? Do I think that some of these uh, some of these
quite what I want to say, folks who think very highly of themselves,
How about that? Do I think that some of them are truly embarrassed?
I do. I think it's also used as a ploy. I think it's
also used as a game to try to put pressure upon conservative Republicans. I
think it's all a tactic. But I also think that they really are They're
embarrassed. They're embarrassed because their Democrat colleagues are coming down on them hard.
They're embarrassed because they got to go and answer questions in the media, and
they don't like people like Matt Gates. Gotta talk about this. Guys are
so embarrassing. How am I going to get a serious ambassadorship after I retire?
How am I gonna get hired to a think tank after I retire?
If I've got to defend this sort of stuff. Oh, it's so embarrassing.
Oh, give me a break. The American people don't care if you're
embarrassed. The American people want to be able to survive and live a life
like they did prior to what happened when this president walked into office. That's
what they want. The American people want to be able to trust the results
of their elections again. The American people want to see security matter to the
people in Washington, d C. They want to see people held accountable who
are corrupt. That's what the American people want. We don't care. We
do not care. If you're embarrassed. I don't care. If you're embarrassed,
do something about it, Do something about it. The Shenanigans, the
games, the make believe legislating. I just and they keep using this word.
I don't want to I don't I know what they mean. I don't
want to be splitting hairs here. But they got to get back to the
business of governing. Well, let me just I don't want to be a
stickler here. But Congress doesn't govern. That's the job of governors, that's
the job of the executive branch. Turns out, turns out that liberal presidents
don't govern either. They just let this nation go straight to hell in a
handbasket. But the job of Congress is to legislate. The job of Congress
will went appropriate. It doesn't mean that they should be full time coming up
with new laws, right. It doesn't mean that they should be sitting there
coming up with new laws so that the American people can somehow function. We're
actually doing quite well. And well, we're not doing well in the matters
that you have put your hands in, Congress, federal government, President of
the United States, we're actually doing well in those areas that you've just left
us alone. We don't need your help. We need you to fix the
problems that you've created. We need you to fix the problems in this economy.
We need you to fix an open border. We need you to fix
the problem of corrupt leadership. We need you to fix the problem of wars
erupting all over the globe. We need to stop having to understand, to
live a real life example of watching what it means for American weakness to provoke
the world. That's what we need. We need justice for the hunter By
laptop scandal. We need Republicans to stop following the narrative of the media.
We need Republicans to actually lead, not to one and cry about being embarrassed.
Don't tell me you want to be a leader when you tell me you're
embarrassed? Is that even how leaders think? I just I just can't get
my head around this. I just can't get my head around this. I
mean, I'm just I'm trying to think of some of these leadership professionals who
would ever tell you to just you know what, You should just be embarrassed
about that. You should be embarrassed. You should quit trying, you should
start blaming people, and you should be embarrassed. It embarrasses me to have
to say those words. You're not a leader. You're not fit to be
a leader if you're out there whining about this. And I understand those real
problems, But if you read this op ed, which is written by a
guy named Stephen Collinson at CNN. I read stuff by Steven Collinson from CNN
from time to time, and I usually do so to entertain myself or to
see what the rest of the well, what the polar opposite of reality looks
like and so. But Stephen Collinson says, you know, Congress can't it
can't function. It can't get together to approve massive amounts of money for Ukraine
and Israel, which I it seems to me that Biden finds all sorts of
ways to get Ukraine money and so forth. Anyway, But be that as
it may, let's say, we're not to the point of needing to fork
over billions of dollars more for just a moment, I think it's important.
I think it's important to point out that the biggest problem he mentioned in his
op ed as to what Congress should be doing right now, specifically the House
of Representatives, is to pass a measure condemning hamas the world's waiting. The
world is waiting for the US House of Representatives to put a formal acknowledgment out
there that we condemn Hama. The truth is, there's gonna be a couple
of jokers in clowns. I can't do that in Congress. I don't think
any of them, heaven forbid, would be Republican. They'd be the folks
that are like Rashida talib or aoc or Iona Presley or somebody like that.
So spare me the drama. Spare me the drama. If you're embarrassed,
fix it, fix any of these problems that have been on your list of
problems to fix for decades. Now that you've done absolutely nothing to help,
You've done plenty of things to make the problem worse. Spare me the drama
of being embarrassed. Man up, how about that? How about you man
up and lead. I just it's pathetic, it really is. It's embarrassing
that you would say it. Congress. Timeout is in order, timeouts in
order. When I get back, I want to go through some of these
folks. And I know we've got six PM votes yesterday closed door meeting to
get a single person, but I at least want to take the time to
go through the people, even if they're not going to be voted as a
speaker, just to give you an idea of who has thrown their name in
the hat. I want to give you these something called a liberty score,
which is something that has been comprised by a group called Conservative Review. I'm
just going to give you those scores, give you a little bit of background
as to what a liberty score is. And I want to ask you who
you think a responsible Congress would elect as Speaker of the House, or more
specifically, a responsible Republican party in the House of Representatives, who they would
elect to be the Speaker of the House. Quick time out is in order,
my friends. You're listening here to conservative not better Talk. I am
your host, Todd Huff not the least bit embarrassed today, my friends back
in just a minute. Welcome back to my friends. There's an organization called
Conservative Review. Conservative Review, and they put together what is called a Liberty
Score, and I'm gonna read what it says here on the website. You
can check this out yourself. Liberty Let's see libertyscore dot Conservative Review dot com.
I think is the yeah. And it's got a map of the country
off fifty seven states Obama visited and you can click on a state. As
there's fifty states, I'm dismissing. You can click on a state and I'll
give you all the representatives, all the senators in that state. I think
it's just federal you know, representatives, US members of Congress, US senators,
I believe is what's in here the only things. So you open up
and you can go, and you can somebody's score. I happen to pull
up Representative al Green, who I believe, if memory serves me, right,
was I think the first person to call for the impeachment of President Trump
eleven days into his first term, eleven days in two I guess its term.
We're waiting on, hopefully what will be his second term here at the
beginning of twenty twenty five. But nonetheless, this is what it says.
This is how it describes what a Liberty score is, it says Conservative Reviews
Liberty Score grades excuse me, grades members of Congress on the top fifty votes
over a rolling six year term. A letter grade is assigned to each member
to help you quickly determine whether a lawmaker is supporting conservative principles. The Liberty
Score helps evaluate your representatives and senators, providing the tools necessary to separate rhetoric
from reality. We don't expect any elected officials to be perfect, but we
do expect them to keep their promises, and so they give people a score,
and it's got a list of votes, like on this one, it's
got let's see a vote from March of twenty twenty three end federal control of
local schools. It says, the Conservative Review position is support that support the
end of federal control of local schools. Of course, is a conservative guiding
principal constitutional principle, by the way, And then it says this member,
in this particular member, being the radical Al Green, who has a four
percent liberty score, tearing it up out there, Texas right. I believe
he vot voted that down. So of course he's got a four percent score.
Some of these folks actually have zero scores, zero percent every issue that
concern And look, I understand there can be nuance. To use one of
the favorite words of the left, there can be some nuance here. There
needs to be some contexts. Sometimes it's a little bit more complicated than some
would have us believe, but in reality it's pretty clear on some of these
issues. And usually if you give it some thought and some time, we
can agree on the vast majority of these things. At these things, I
mean, Conservative Reviews going to be right, The vast, vast majority of
the time, as far as what the proper position conservatively speaking on an issue
is, constitutionally speaking on an issue is, and so and so. Let's
look at the liberty scores of the nine people who want to be speaker,
the nine Republicans who have decided they want to throw their proverbial hat into the
ring and run for Speaker of the House. Jack Bergman from Michigan fifty seven
percent. As I'm reading these, I want you to tell me, now,
we're putting trust here in conservative review. I'm going to tell you that
that is a reasonable thing to do. Again, I'm not suggesting conservative reviews
perfect, that they're always right, but in general, these numbers I give
you are indicative of a good indicator on how much individuals respect liberty and the
constitution versus big government, for example, So he said, Jack Bergman of
Michigan fifty seven percent, Byron Donald's of Florida one hundred percent, Tom Emmer
of Minnesota sixty nine percent, Kevin Hearn of Oklahoma eighty two percent, Mike
Johnson Louisiana seventy four percent, Dan Muser Pennsylvania sixty eight percent, Gary Palmer
alb Obama eighty percent, Austin Scott from Georgia sixty five percent, Pete Sessions
from Texas sixty three percent. So of course we know that Emmer has the
support of McCarthy. Which what's McCarthy score. Let me see if I can
find I didn't do this off the top here. Let me see if I
can find him really quickly going to California. Here, come on, work
for me machine. Let's just pull up McCarthy, Kevin McCarthy, Kevin McCarthy.
And by the way, they turn these percentages into grades just like school,
well, just like how school used to be for us old people.
You go back in history and you had a Kevin McCarthy fifty four percent.
That's an F I'm looking at it. Kevin McCarthy fifty four percent is an
FT. Byron Donalds, who have hundred percent, of course, is an
A or an A plus or if you're like Michael Scott, you forgot all
about the A plus plus for Byron for Byron Donalds. And so this this
matters, This matters, what this represent, What this represents matters these scores
for individuals. And so there's a clear front runner here, is there not
with Byron Donald's of Florida, who has a one score with the Conservative Review
on his liberty score. There's some there's some really atrocious scores on here.
Jack Bergmann fifty seven percent. That's an f uh, what's m R sixty
nine percent? What would that be? Is that a D six oz must
have had a lot of ds. She knew that immediately. She shook her
head immediately when I said sixty that's a D. Time. Is that your
GPA? Yeah, she said, She says that's her GPA straight D.
What would that be? A one point one point? She doesn't remember.
She doesn't know that. So you're looking here at these scores. These are
this matters now. It matters for a couple of reasons. Number One,
it helps, as the website said, it helps separate the rhetoric from reality.
It helps separate the rhetoric from reality. It also goes to show what
I've been saying on this program for a long long time, but there is
a battle for control of the Republican Party. I mean, just in the
list of scores, in these nine speakers, who are all Republicans, who
are all supposed to be from the same party, who are all supposed to
be from the party of Lincoln, who are all supposed to have some amount
of respect for liberty in the Constitution. It ranges from an abysmal fifty seven
percent to a one hundred percent. Jack Bergmann's score puts him in the midst
much puts him much closer to a lot of liberals or even Adam Kinsinger than
it does to But I shouldn't say I mean it puts him right in the
middle, Like there's some people who straight up have a zero on their liberty
score. And I don't want to overstate this. I'm just saying that this
is a measure that tells us something. It also goes to show. It
also goes to show, in my opinion, the commitment and the intestinal fortitude
of the individual's in Congress, because maybe on paper, let's just say,
maybe ideologically speaking, I'm not saying that this is true, but just for
the sake of discussion, maybe these folks are people who really believe in liberty,
but when it comes time to make the tough vote, they don't do
it. My friend's leadership requires that you do the right thing even when you
don't have the support at the time that you need. A good leader.
A good leader can actually develop support. A good leader can actually get people
to come over to his or her side of an issue. A good leader
can be persuasive, a good late. A good leader can be a very
good communicator, a good listener. A good leader can find ways to get
things done. And it starts, and it starts with principle. And as
I look at this and just what I know about, and I don't know
a lot about some of these folks. But when you look at Byron Donald's
who I know, you know we all know a little or a decent amount
about regarding his stance for conservative principles, I mean, is that not the
clear and obvious choice for people that want to see for people who want to
see Congress be led by principled conservative Now I'm under no illusion here, I'm
under no illusion that this is going to be some sort of an easy fight
of this. Who knows even possible, I don't know, But that's the
sort of individual we need leading the country. By the way, before I
take a break, I'll mention too, for those who don't know Byron Donald's
is black. I don't know if Biden thinks he's black or not. Biden
would say he's not black because he didn't vote for Joe Biden over Donald Trump
in twenty twenty. But I waited to the end to say that because it
doesn't matter. It doesn't matter the person's race. But if this was a
if he were a Liberal and the rest of these folks on here were Republicans
or whatever. If he was a Democrat and the rest of these folks were
Republicans, that's all we would hear about. And I just pointed out to
illustrate just how much we live in a world of identity politics. So I
don't want that to make a difference in your thinking. I'm just saying.
I'm just saying that it does doesn't matter. But it wouldn't matter if he
were on the side of the Democrats and the radical left. Quick time out,
my friends. You're listening here to conservative not better talk. I am
your host, Todd huff Back in just a minute. Welcome back to my
friends. So we know the world's on fire. We know that the fires
have been caused, not completely. Look, I want to be fair here.
I want to be fair here. The fires have not been completely caused
by this administration, but they have not been helped by this administration. Some
of the fires have been caused by this administration. As I've said on this
program before, American weakness is in fact provocative. You want to provoke our
enemies, make them think that they can get away with it, make them
think that you're wee, make them think that you're compromised. Check and check
with this current administration. So we've got major problems going on all around the
world, and it's always good to be prepared. It's good to be prepared
in general from stuff like that. You've also got natural disasters. You've got
your regular storms that could come through in the springtime. Heck in the fall
time, you could have winter storms that take out power as well. There
could be problems with the food supply, food shortages, or just inflation in
general. That makes it difficult. That just puts pressure on the supply chain
for food. So it's never bad to be prepared. So why not check
out for patriots dot com the number four patriots with anss dot com. Check
out their three month food supply and other products they have there. But their
three month food supply lasts for twenty five years. It's got breakfast, it's
got lunch, dinner options. They come in some stackable storage totes, and
it'll last for a long long time, as I said, twenty five years.
Doesn't it pay to be prepared? Visit for Patriots dot com the number
four, the word Patriots with an S four Patriots dot Com. Use promo

huff. I mentioned yesterday, Well, a couple of things along. Let's
talk about some other things that we've got to deal with as a nation,
a couple of other things that the House should be doing something about. I
know that there's not a speaker at the moment. There was a speaker.
I'm wondering what got done when there was a speaker. So again, I'm
not embarrassed by this, Biden Braggs. I mentioned this briefly yesterday. I'm
gonna kind of look at this story a little bit more depth here. Today,
US budget deficit stores to one point seven trillion. That's trillion with the
truck a tr trillion, not to be confused with million or billion. It
is trillion. US budget deficit stores to one point seven trillion. That's up
twenty three percent from last year, so meaning the fiscal year ended September thirtieth
of twenty twenty three. If you don't know, Congress operates. The federal
government operates on a fiscal year that begins October one and runs through September thirty
of the following year. They call it the fiscal year of twenty three.
They call it. We're in fiscal year twenty four. Now, it'll end
in twenty four, ten months or nine months of the way through twenty four.
That's where the end of this fiscal year is. This is one that
we're in now. But the last one fiscal year twenty twenty three, the
budget deficit soared to one point seven trillion. So what's a budget depfith I
know many of you know this, but again we have people from all different
experience levels who listen to this program. I just want to make it clear
really quickly. A budget deficit means if you take the amount of money that
the federal government brought in in the form of taxes, and then you compare
that to the amount of money that went out from the government in the form
of whatever, from entitlements to defense spending to you name it, all the
things that the government spends money on. If you look at the money that
came in, and then you subtract the money that went out. If the
money, if you're left with a negative number, meaning if there was more
that went out than came in, you have what's called the deficit. Right,
So in this case, in this case, we had a one point
seven trillion dollar deficit. I mean, that's not even trying, that's not
even trying to get close. That's not even pretending to try to get close.
And that's up twenty three percent from fiscal year twenty to twenty two.
Now, remember Biden's out there patting himself on the back, pounding his chest,
telling us how great Bidenomics is, telling us that he's reducing the budget
deficit. It's all a lie. This is total. This is a black
and white There is no interpretation here. This is in official documents that show
income. If you will, I don't want to call it income. It's
it's let's call it revenue, revenue for the federal government and expenses for the
red federal government. It's I say it's black and white, it's really all
red. It's red because it's all in the negative. It's not they're not
in the black. We are spending one point seven trillion dollars more than we're
bringing in, and that's up twenty three percent from the previous year. That's
three hundred and twenty billion dollars more this year that we're in the deficit than
last year. So let's see. I don't want to get into I don't
want to get too much into the numbers. That's tough on radio, but
suffice it to say, suffice to say that we're in the thirty three quickly
approaching thirty four trillion dollar federal debt, and that's the compilation. So that's
that's compiling all of the budget deficits over the years. So we're starting off
nearly thirty four trillion dollars in debt. As we move into not quiet,
I think I think it's as thirty three point six trillion. So we're point
four trillion, four hundred billion away from being thirty four trillion in debt.
And then, however much of a deficit we run next year will be added
on to that thirty three point six trillion dollars. And they want you to
think, my friends, these jokers and the Republican leaders in Congress want you
to believe the most embarrassing thing for them is that they don't have a speaker.
This happened when we had speakers. My friends, I'm again, I
understand. I understand that we have the realities of a divided government, and
we have the minority share of that of the control of government. Right.
I understand that. I also understand that the House is supposed to be in
charge of the of the budget. They're the ones that are supposed to be
driving these things. They don't. And again, or if they do,
why are they doing this? See, no matter how you slice it,
my friends, it comes back to me to McCarthy. While we agree with
these days because we don't want to shut down Todd Okay, we don't want
a government shut down, but we're okay driving ninety miles an hour off the
cliff towards the end of the road that in like it did for what Bonnie
and Clyde or whatever. Right now, Thelman, Louise, Belman, Luise,
sorry about that. You just run it off the just take it right
off the edge of the cliff. They're not concerned about that because that's not
today, that's not this moment. And maybe in a couple of years,
maybe in a couple of decades. It's going to be for your children,
your grandchildren, your great grandchildren. They don't care. They're more embarrassed about
their precious little who has the gavel sort of thing, which again I'm not
saying doesn't matter, and I'm not minimizing to the point. I mean it
matters. It's our government. We should have someone there that does a good
job. But my point is we haven't. My point is that we haven't.
They've abdicated their responsibility, They've paid lip service. They've driven us to
these unsustainable levels of debt and ridiculous behavior. And I'm not sorry. I
hope they are embarrassed, but if they're embarrassed over not having a speaker,
they're clearly embarrassed about the wrong things. Quick time out, my friends back
here in just a minute. Welcome back to my friends. I didn't mention
this yesterday, but there was there was a story that I saw over the
weekend. I saw this, I think in a couple of places. You
may have seen this too. There's a leader in Black Lives Matter named Sean
King, and that's s h a u N Sean King. And there's a
lot just if you look at some of the things he's said some of the
I mean, you can look into him. He's not got the best history
of being accurate and honest with with things. But anyway, he You may
have heard over the weekend, and if you have them, happy to report
that there have been a couple of American hostages that were freed by Hamas.
And on Saturday, this leftist named Sean King went on to social media and
he claimed that the family of one of the hostages was a supporter of his.
I'm looking here at an article in the postmillennial dot com Postmillennial dot com.
This will be on the in the stack of stuff if you want to
take a look. But he says that one of the the hostages released was
a supporter of his, and he decided that he was going to jump in
and try to help facilitate her release and her mother's release. So he's basically
taking credit for this. This is what he wrote on an Instagram post.
Hamas just freed the teenager Natalie Rannon and her mother. I'm grateful, as
I said last week, he continued, Natalie and her family have been supporters
of mine and protested police violence in America alongside us. I'm also thankful to
the Katari government for helping to negotiate this. Dozens of us work frantically behind
the scenes to help make this possible. I spoke to Natalie's family this afternoon
and they are anxiously awaiting more updates. But according to her family, there
was a reporter who asked her family about this. The family doesn't know who
this guy is. This was a journalist and her name is Yuna Leibzan.
She said that it's important to clarify that the family says they have no idea
who Sean King is. Anyway, my friends just wanted to share that quick
time out back here in just a minute, just to have a minute here
of my friends. But the Middle East, as you know, is a
tinder box, and there's of course missiles being fired towards Israel from other locations.
Now there's the northern front of this war, which could involve a direct
you know that there's been from what I gather, from what I could understand,
it appears that there have been some skirmishes on the northern front, which
would include well Hesbelah, which is not Hamas. But again the same general
group of people. They're all funded and supported by Iran. Now we get
the United States. Of course, with our involvement and support. Over there,
