Before I get to the audio from last night, 10 00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:38,840 I pulled a couple of clips here, but Mary has 11 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:41,119 been sitting on hold for a while, so I want 12 00:00:41,119 --> 00:00:43,560 to get Mary on. Hello, Mary, welcome to the program. 13 00:00:45,119 --> 00:00:48,159 Speaker 2: Thank you, love your show, Thank you, thank you. And 14 00:00:49,119 --> 00:00:51,200 so yeah, the last hour, I think the guy's name 15 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:55,000 was Robert, and he was talking about, oh, you know, 16 00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:58,520 just how lowbrow they went, and I was I just 17 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:03,240 wanted to say when, and the Republicans started to say sing, hey, hey, goodbye, 18 00:01:03,479 --> 00:01:07,319 like bad Democrats had fouled out. I was yelling at 19 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:10,040 the TV like, don't don't go low like this. 20 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I didn't like them doing that. When they 21 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:17,159 kicked out Al Green and you could hear Republicans sing 22 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,439 that stupid song. I've always hated it in every venue 23 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:23,640 I've ever heard it, and it was even worse last night. 24 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,400 I did not I did not like the Republicans doing that. 25 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,680 Speaker 2: They were right because then, like my mother taught me, 26 00:01:29,719 --> 00:01:31,400 then you just stooped to their level and you're no 27 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:33,560 better than they are, yeah. 28 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:39,120 Speaker 1: Right, And it gives the media something else to then 29 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:45,159 focus on and ignore the original infraction. It's almost like 30 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:48,159 you know in a football game where they always penalize 31 00:01:48,239 --> 00:01:51,439 the second guy, like you get hit bad, and then 32 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:55,400 you hit back and you get the penalty, right right. 33 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:59,319 Speaker 2: And those all those people that are not clapping and 34 00:01:59,359 --> 00:02:02,519 holding the sign they think they're heroes. Yeah, they think 35 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:07,599 they are absolutely heroic and like martyring themselves for the cause, right. 36 00:02:07,879 --> 00:02:11,479 Speaker 1: Well, while literally doing like the least possible thing to protest, 37 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:15,439 like they're not even at least al Green got himself 38 00:02:15,479 --> 00:02:18,000 thrown out. I mean it was completely intentional, you know 39 00:02:18,039 --> 00:02:21,280 that was the plan. But uh yeah, but the people 40 00:02:21,319 --> 00:02:25,280 with the little signs, like, you're not affecting any change, right. 41 00:02:25,319 --> 00:02:27,759 If that were the case, then you know, Hitler would 42 00:02:27,759 --> 00:02:29,879 have never risen to power if people just held signs 43 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:34,000 at his speeches it's just stupid. So but it's all performative. 44 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,639 That's the point. It's just performative for their base. 45 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,159 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, Oh, it was so performative. 46 00:02:39,319 --> 00:02:42,599 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, Mary, I appreciate the call, Thanks for thanks for. 47 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:44,840 Speaker 2: Calling, absolutely, thank you. 48 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:45,159 Speaker 3: Thank you. 49 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 1: All right, take care, all right. So let's start with 50 00:02:48,319 --> 00:02:50,680 some clips here. Let's get some audio going, because I 51 00:02:50,719 --> 00:02:55,039 sat there listening to the speech twice and ded Gumman, 52 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:58,639 I'm gonna play this audio. Okay, So here is This 53 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:04,039 is the way it started, with Trump saying America is back, baby. 54 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 3: Six weeks ago, I stood beneath the dome of this 55 00:03:08,719 --> 00:03:14,800 capital and proclaimed the dawn of the Golden Age of America. 56 00:03:15,759 --> 00:03:18,879 From that moment dawn, there's been nothing but swift and 57 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:23,639 unrelenting action to usher in the greatest and most successful 58 00:03:23,719 --> 00:03:28,919 era in the history of our country. We have accomplished 59 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:33,479 more in forty three days than most administrations accomplished in 60 00:03:33,599 --> 00:03:38,560 four years or eight years, and we are just getting started. 61 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 1: I can understand why Democrats were not like this by 62 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:56,159 the way I do ed in some of the applause 63 00:03:56,599 --> 00:03:57,680 in some of these class I. 64 00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 3: Returned to this chamber tonight to report that America's momentum 65 00:04:02,719 --> 00:04:06,120 is back, Our spirit is back, our pride is back, 66 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:10,280 our confidence is back, and the American dream is surging 67 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:21,920 bigger and better than ever before. The American Dream is unstoppable, 68 00:04:21,959 --> 00:04:24,560 and our country is on the verge of a comeback 69 00:04:25,079 --> 00:04:28,079 the likes of which the world has never witnessed and 70 00:04:28,199 --> 00:04:33,439 perhaps will never witness again. It's never been anything like that. 71 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:43,000 The presidential election of November fifth was a mandate like 72 00:04:43,079 --> 00:04:47,279 has not been seen in many decades. We won all 73 00:04:47,399 --> 00:04:51,560 seven swing states, giving us an electoral college victory of 74 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:53,600 three hundred and twelve volts. 75 00:04:55,240 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: Right, So this is the part where Congressman from Houston, 76 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:09,959 Texas started yelling. There's this belief on the left that 77 00:05:10,199 --> 00:05:13,079 Trump didn't win a mandate because he only won by 78 00:05:13,079 --> 00:05:15,360 like one and a half percent of the popular vote, which, 79 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,560 by the way, does not actually get you elected. It's 80 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,600 the electoral college vote. But when you look at the 81 00:05:20,639 --> 00:05:23,879 shifts that he had from the last time he ran 82 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:27,720 to this time he ran, and you look at he 83 00:05:27,879 --> 00:05:31,439 just said, seven swing states all went for him, massive 84 00:05:31,519 --> 00:05:35,600 movements in like all of these counties all over the country, 85 00:05:35,639 --> 00:05:41,199 and all these different racial demographics, Like, yeah, the people 86 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,519 have rejected what the Democrats were pushing, and so it 87 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:48,279 was at this point that Democrats began their middle school 88 00:05:48,319 --> 00:05:51,800 performative resistance by heckling. 89 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 3: We won the popular vote by big numbers and won 90 00:05:55,839 --> 00:06:14,519 counties in our country. 91 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,639 Speaker 1: So they're chanting in order to drown out Congressman Green. 92 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:28,360 Speaker 3: And one counties in our country two thousand, seven. 93 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,959 Speaker 1: Hundred to five twenty five. 94 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:43,199 Speaker 3: But a map that reads almost completely read for Republican. Now, 95 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:47,199 for the first time in modern history, more Americans believe 96 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:48,839 that our country is headed. 97 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 1: In the right direction than the wrong direction. 98 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:56,519 Speaker 3: In fact, it's an astonishing record twenty seven point swing, 99 00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:58,160 the most ever. 100 00:07:02,879 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 2: Right. 101 00:07:03,079 --> 00:07:06,319 Speaker 1: So again, they don't like what they're hearing. They don't 102 00:07:06,439 --> 00:07:08,560 like the guy who's saying it. So they're just going 103 00:07:08,639 --> 00:07:12,439 to keep on screaming and heckling and holding up signs 104 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:17,000 and not applauding for even good things that all Americans 105 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:21,560 should applaud because we'll show him. I don't know what 106 00:07:21,639 --> 00:07:25,920 you're showing him. He just feeds off of that. You 107 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:30,639 realize that, and you're so predictable that they wrote the 108 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:36,600 speech in order to maximize the political damage to you 109 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:42,079 by your behavior. Because Democrats were talking about all the 110 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:43,800 ways they were going to resist. I mean when he 111 00:07:43,839 --> 00:07:48,279 walked in, when Trump was walking in, and you know, 112 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,399 everybody always crowds along the aisle to shake his hand, 113 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:56,680 and Democrats are they lined up on that aisle and 114 00:07:56,680 --> 00:08:00,240 then they all like turn their back on him and 115 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:04,240 they held up signs and stuff, refusing to shake his hand. 116 00:08:05,519 --> 00:08:07,600 And he made a comment on the way in. He 117 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:09,879 like looked over and he was just like, oh, I can't 118 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:11,639 well whatever, you know, and like kind of shrugged it off, 119 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:16,040 like well, you know those people, and like he would 120 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:20,920 prefer that everybody like him, but he's not going to 121 00:08:20,959 --> 00:08:24,439 try to make you like him anymore. That Trump gone, 122 00:08:25,519 --> 00:08:29,000 This is a different Trump. And Democrats don't seem to understand. 123 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,639 They've never seemed to understand how to interact with the guy. 124 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,399 Had they. I said this from the very beginning in 125 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:38,720 twenty sixteen when he won. If Democrats actually wanted to 126 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,399 get stuff from him, all they had to do was 127 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:45,159 flatter him. That's all they had to do. Just walk 128 00:08:45,159 --> 00:08:47,919 in there and been like, dude, you're awesome, man, you're 129 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,480 such a great president. Hey can we get some open 130 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,840 borders and be like a yeah, maybe, okay, you know whatever, 131 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:56,720 Like you could have probably got so much stuff from 132 00:08:56,840 --> 00:09:00,720 him had you taken a different approach. But you could 133 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:04,919 not stomach the fact that he beat Hillary Clinton. You 134 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,799 just couldn't get over that he was so repulsive to 135 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:12,279 you that you couldn't do what was politically expedient for 136 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:16,279 you to do and get stuff that you actually want, 137 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,600 get your agenda satisfied, and you just couldn't bring yourself 138 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,240 to do it. And that Trump, I think would have 139 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:25,039 helped you. That Trump wanted to be like That's why 140 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:27,759 Trump still talks to Maggie Haberman at the New York Times, 141 00:09:27,799 --> 00:09:30,960 after all of the hit pieces she does, He's still like, 142 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:34,799 he still talks to these people. He wants people. He 143 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:36,679 wants to be the best president. He wants everybody to 144 00:09:36,759 --> 00:09:38,240 like him. He wants to go down in history as 145 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:42,600 the best president. And like not that others don't think 146 00:09:42,639 --> 00:09:44,639 every president wants to go down as the best president. 147 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:48,039 And we all know there can only be one that being, 148 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:52,360 you know, Joe Biden, right, I'm just kidding that. 149 00:09:52,919 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 4: You know. 150 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 1: Stories are powerful.

While he was 171 00:11:04,799 --> 00:11:07,639 the only one to be removed by the sergeant at arms, 172 00:11:08,279 --> 00:11:13,600 Democrats continued to engage in the kind of theater kid 173 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:18,120 performance that makes leftists feel like they are the resistance heroes, 174 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:23,080 when in fact, so many of them are just simply immature, impotent, 175 00:11:23,279 --> 00:11:28,360 frustrated clowns. Right throughout the speech, Democrats would make a 176 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:32,679 show of walking out right, which then makes me wonder, 177 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,519 why are you even there in the first place if 178 00:11:34,519 --> 00:11:38,279 that is the plan, because that that's like, look at me, 179 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:40,559 I'm so outraged, I'm leaving. Well, if you were so 180 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:43,559 outrage you shouldn't even have shown up, right, But you 181 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:46,080 wanted to create some sort of a spectacle. And this 182 00:11:46,159 --> 00:11:48,480 is what Trump was dealing with. During the entire speech, 183 00:11:49,519 --> 00:11:54,320 people holding signs, you know, waving them around. They were 184 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:58,600 screaming out, they were heckling. They had the directive no 185 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:03,840 applauding anything, right, which, by the way, I'm fine with 186 00:12:03,879 --> 00:12:08,879 these new rules, because these are the new rules. Now, Democrats, 187 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,120 not sure you're aware of what you've done, which you've 188 00:12:12,159 --> 00:12:15,279 done repeatedly, so that makes me pretty confident you don't 189 00:12:15,279 --> 00:12:17,480 know what you've done because you don't seem to learn 190 00:12:17,519 --> 00:12:22,679 from these mistakes that when you blow up standards, then 191 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:27,440 those standards no longer protect you. So next time you 192 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:32,279 guys have the floor at one of these speeches. Game on, right, 193 00:12:32,879 --> 00:12:36,799 game on, and it's just going to get worse. I 194 00:12:36,799 --> 00:12:40,120 would imagine Trump said, the people elected me to do 195 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,679 a job, and I am doing it. 196 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:46,799 Speaker 3: This is my fifth such speech to Congress, and once 197 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:49,120 again I look at the Democrats in front of me, 198 00:12:49,919 --> 00:12:53,120 and I realize there is absolutely nothing I can say 199 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:56,799 to make them happy, or to make them stand or 200 00:12:56,879 --> 00:13:01,000 smile or applaud. Nothing I can do. I could find 201 00:13:01,039 --> 00:13:05,320 a cure to the most devastating disease, a disease that 202 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:10,159 would wipe out entire nations, or announce the answers to 203 00:13:10,279 --> 00:13:14,720 the greatest economy and history, or the stoppage of crime 204 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:18,919 to the lowest levels ever recorded. And these people sitting 205 00:13:19,159 --> 00:13:23,120 right here will not clap, will not stand, and certainly 206 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:27,600 will not cheer for these astronomical achievements. They won't do it, 207 00:13:27,639 --> 00:13:32,039 no matter what five times I've been up here. It's 208 00:13:32,159 --> 00:13:40,879 very sad, and it just shouldn't be this way. So 209 00:13:41,039 --> 00:13:45,919 Democrats sitting before me, for just this one night, why 210 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:52,440 not join us in celebrating so many incredible wins for America, for. 211 00:13:52,399 --> 00:13:53,279 Speaker 1: The good of our nation. 212 00:13:53,759 --> 00:13:57,679 Speaker 3: Let's work together, and let's truly make America great again. 213 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 1: No We're not going to do that. Now, We're not 214 00:14:03,039 --> 00:14:08,960 going to do that. Like Trump woke up this morning, 215 00:14:10,159 --> 00:14:14,639 well yesterday morning, and you know, just like the Sopranos 216 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:17,799 theme song, he came for the fight. Like I said, 217 00:14:17,879 --> 00:14:21,039 this is a different Donald Trump. He has no problem 218 00:14:21,399 --> 00:14:26,200 looking right at you and calling you out. And that's 219 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:30,320 what he did. And that's why people who love Trump 220 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:35,559 love him. He proceeded to then recap his executive orders. 221 00:14:35,639 --> 00:14:38,320 He went through listing them like a freeze on federal hiring, 222 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:43,440 foreign aid, new federal regulations, terminated what he called the 223 00:14:43,519 --> 00:14:47,919 ridiculous Green new scam, withdrew from the unfair Paris Accord, 224 00:14:48,159 --> 00:14:52,000 withdrew from the corrupt World Health Organization and the anti 225 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:56,440 American UN Human Rights Council. And he ended Joe Biden's 226 00:14:56,559 --> 00:14:59,120 insane ev mandate. 227 00:14:58,879 --> 00:15:03,679 Speaker 3: Weapon government where as an example, as sitting president is 228 00:15:03,759 --> 00:15:08,039 allowed to viciously prosecute his political opponent. 229 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 1: Like me, how did that work out? 230 00:15:12,759 --> 00:15:13,679 Speaker 2: Not too good? 231 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:14,919 Speaker 5: Not too good? 232 00:15:16,279 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 1: Not too good? Yeah, say that's what I mean. He's 233 00:15:19,399 --> 00:15:22,600 taking a victory lap, he's spiking the football, whatever sports 234 00:15:22,639 --> 00:15:25,080 analogy you want to say, but he has earned it. 235 00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:30,360 He mentioned ending critical race theory in schools, DEI in hiring, 236 00:15:30,679 --> 00:15:34,159 making English the official language, renaming the Gulf of Mexico 237 00:15:34,279 --> 00:15:37,799 and Mount McKinley, and setting the government policy that there 238 00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:39,879 are only two genders. 239 00:15:40,159 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 3: Three years ago, Peyton McNabb was an all star high 240 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,320 school athlete, one of the best, preparing for a future 241 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:51,759 in college sports. But when her girl's volleyball match was 242 00:15:51,799 --> 00:15:56,080 invaded by a male, he smashed the ball so hard 243 00:15:56,799 --> 00:16:01,840 in Peyton's face, causing traumatic brain injury, martially paralyzing her 244 00:16:01,919 --> 00:16:07,039 right side and ending her athletic career. It was a 245 00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:10,559 shot like she's never seen before. She's never seen anything 246 00:16:10,639 --> 00:16:14,840 like it. Peyton is here tonight in the gallery, and Peyton. 247 00:16:14,919 --> 00:16:17,759 From now on, schools will kick the men off the 248 00:16:17,759 --> 00:16:21,679 girls team, or they will lose all federal funding. 249 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 1: Democrats did not applaud that either, because, as we saw 250 00:16:27,799 --> 00:16:33,799 the other day where they voted to block a piece 251 00:16:33,799 --> 00:16:37,120 of legislation in the US Senate that would prohibit men 252 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:42,480 from playing on women's sports teams, they want men to 253 00:16:42,519 --> 00:16:45,279 continue to be on women's sports teams, and this issue 254 00:16:45,519 --> 00:16:48,759 is not a winning issue for them as a political party, 255 00:16:49,159 --> 00:16:51,679 but they refuse. This goes back to one of the 256 00:16:51,679 --> 00:16:57,240 earlier calls right. They can't move away from these positions 257 00:16:57,279 --> 00:17:03,720 because their base is so invested in those issues. And 258 00:17:03,759 --> 00:17:08,720 you've got people inside that party who have taken the 259 00:17:08,799 --> 00:17:12,920 steps in transiting their kids, and to admit that that 260 00:17:13,079 --> 00:17:17,680 was a mistake is to admit something horrible. They can't 261 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,359 they can't move off the position. Here's a great idea. 262 00:17:21,559 --> 00:17:24,319 How about making an escape to a really special and 263 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:27,559 secluded getaway in western North Carolina.

Let me jump over 284 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:37,559 and get Katie on. She's been holding on for a while. 285 00:18:37,559 --> 00:18:41,920 Speaker 5: Hello Katie, Hello, see, thank you for taking my call. 286 00:18:42,039 --> 00:18:43,640 Speaker 1: Sure, yeah, thanks for hanging on. 287 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:49,440 Speaker 5: Just wanted to say, looking at the television last night 288 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:55,039 and seeing those folks on the Democratic side faces, they 289 00:18:55,039 --> 00:19:03,640 are absolutely miserable. You could see it. Yeah, everybody's face. 290 00:19:04,519 --> 00:19:08,799 Uh what's the guy bar Bernie Sanders and all those 291 00:19:08,839 --> 00:19:11,799 women sitting there. And I mean just like Trump said, 292 00:19:11,839 --> 00:19:14,920 he could see it too, no matter what he does. 293 00:19:16,079 --> 00:19:20,960 So those type people really need to go. I pray 294 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:25,039 that the people that put them in office will God 295 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:29,119 will open their eyes and get those people out because 296 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:32,519 they clearly don't want to work with us. 297 00:19:33,279 --> 00:19:36,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, well, like that's why I keeps saying everything 298 00:19:36,759 --> 00:19:39,200 we saw last night was performative, except I would point 299 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:43,160 out for Bernie Sanders. Uh, just a slight difference of 300 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:47,920 opinion on Bernie. He always looks miserable. He does, like 301 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:51,400 that's that's his resting face. That's just normal, you know. 302 00:19:52,519 --> 00:19:55,000 But yeah, they're they're not happy unless they're miserable. And 303 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:58,319 the people that they rely on to return them to 304 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:03,480 office want them to perform exactly as they performed last night. 305 00:20:03,519 --> 00:20:08,319 Their incentives are aligned to do what they did. 306 00:20:09,559 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 5: Just like Al Green. Yeah, yeah, I'm so glad. I 307 00:20:14,039 --> 00:20:18,519 think I really believe that Mike Johnson stood up yep, 308 00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:23,400 because JD was sitting there beside him. And remember the 309 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,559 first time JD moved his arm in hand and said 310 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:30,759 get him out of here like that, and then Mike 311 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:34,480 Johnson kind of got a little bit braver, if you 312 00:20:34,559 --> 00:20:38,160 want to say that, and so well I think they 313 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:41,559 I think JD helped him actually, And. 314 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:46,079 Speaker 1: I think there's always you want to give some latitude 315 00:20:46,519 --> 00:20:48,720 to your colleagues, right, you don't want to just be 316 00:20:48,839 --> 00:20:52,240 the iron fist and all. So they gave Green an 317 00:20:52,279 --> 00:20:55,799 opportunity to shut up and sit down, and he refused 318 00:20:55,799 --> 00:20:57,480 to do it. And then at that point it's like, okay, 319 00:20:57,480 --> 00:20:59,680 now you're out right like they gave he said, this 320 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:02,480 is the only warning. He gave everybody the warning, and 321 00:21:02,519 --> 00:21:05,440 then Green wouldn't stop, and so that was his butt 322 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:05,920 you're out. 323 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:09,279 Speaker 5: So yeah, yep, and I am so glad. I almost 324 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:10,599 jumped up off my bed. 325 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:14,359 Speaker 1: Katie. Thanks for the call. I appreciate it. 326 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:15,599 Speaker 5: You're welcome. 327 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:19,400 Speaker 1: Thank you, all right, take care. Yes, this is a 328 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:23,599 clip here from the speech last night. This is Trump 329 00:21:23,759 --> 00:21:30,839 recognizing the family of Lake and Riley, and he directly 330 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:36,000 blamed the failed Joe Biden presidency for her death. 331 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:40,359 Speaker 3: Since taking office, my administration has launched the most sweeping 332 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:45,920 border and immigration crackdown in American history, and we quickly 333 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:51,559 achieved the lowest numbers of illegal border crosses ever recorded. 334 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:52,079 Thank you. 335 00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:00,559 Speaker 1: Seems like that's a good thing. No, I think it is. 336 00:22:02,799 --> 00:22:05,400 I mean, even the Biden administration said that, you know, 337 00:22:05,519 --> 00:22:06,160 don't come. 338 00:22:06,319 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 3: Remember the media and our friends in the Democrat Party 339 00:22:12,319 --> 00:22:16,279 kept saying we needed new legislation. We must have legislation 340 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:19,359 to secure the border. But it turned out that all 341 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:20,759 we really needed. 342 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:26,480 Speaker 1: Was a new president, and boom goes the dynamite. I 343 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:30,400 said that, I said that not quite that way, and 344 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:32,839 he delivered it better. But I said the same thing, like, 345 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:39,039 there's there's been no new law passed that would allow 346 00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:42,720 Trump to do what he's doing now. Nothing has changed 347 00:22:42,839 --> 00:22:48,119 except the president. That's it. He then goaded Elizabeth Warren 348 00:22:49,319 --> 00:22:55,200 Senator Warren into applauding for more death in Ukraine simply 349 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:58,519 by saying he wants to end the war, and that 350 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:00,559 requires he talked to both sides. 351 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:05,079 Speaker 3: I'm also working tirelessly to end the savage conflict in Ukraine. 352 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:10,000 Millions of Ukrainians and Russians have been needlessly killed or 353 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:13,839 wounded in this horrific and brutal conflict with no end 354 00:23:14,039 --> 00:23:18,759 in sight. The United States has sent hundreds of billions 355 00:23:18,759 --> 00:23:25,400 of dollars to support Ukraine's defense with no security. 356 00:23:25,559 --> 00:23:27,160 Speaker 2: With no anything. 357 00:23:40,279 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 1: Do you want to keep it going for another five years? 358 00:23:43,559 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, you would say. 359 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:52,880 Speaker 1: Pocahonta says yes, Like he looked right at her and 360 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:54,720 said you want to keep it going? Because they wouldn't. 361 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:58,200 They weren't deplauding the fact, like think about that. He's like, 362 00:23:58,319 --> 00:24:00,680 we've given them all of this aid, and he's trying 363 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:04,640 to end the war, and Democrats refuse to applaud that portion. 364 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:08,519 They could have applauded that portion, but they refused, and 365 00:24:08,599 --> 00:24:12,839 so their lack of applause now plays into his zinger, 366 00:24:13,079 --> 00:24:14,880 which is, oh, what do you want to do? You 367 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:20,000 want the war to last for five years? And then 368 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:24,119 he says, which it's not Polka Hanta, it's fo Ca 369 00:24:24,319 --> 00:24:30,759 Hontis because she's not a real Indian Native American, Right, 370 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:34,759 that's not that's the joke anyway, which now I saw 371 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:37,559 like today they're I can't believe he made some racist lur. No, 372 00:24:37,599 --> 00:24:40,599 it's not a it's not he didn't make a racist slur. 373 00:24:41,839 --> 00:24:49,039 He's mocking her for using somebody else's ethnicity in order 374 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:53,599 to gain professional advancement. That should be the thing you're 375 00:24:53,599 --> 00:24:57,319 most offended by, But of course they're not, because it's 376 00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:00,880 different when Democrats do it. All right, if you're listening 377 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:02,480 to this show, you know I try to keep up 378 00:25:02,519 --> 00:25:04,319 with all sorts of current events, and I know you 379 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:06,839 do too, And you've probably heard me say get your 380 00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:10,720 news from multiple sources. Why, well, because it's how you 381 00:25:10,799 --> 00:25:13,759 detect media bias, which is why I've been so impressed 382 00:25:13,759 --> 00:25:17,559 with ground News.

I have a peat mail from Mark who says, 398 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:12,799 I really don't understand why people keep catterwalling. It's an 399 00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:20,279 underused word nowadays, catterwalling, especially on Fox News about Democrats' actions, 400 00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:25,200 especially last night. Of course they can't clap and tragedy 401 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:30,559 at tragedies that resulted from their policies and positions, from 402 00:26:30,599 --> 00:26:34,279 the open borders to the culture war nonsense. My takeaway 403 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:39,119 is high level, they are split. The anti American young 404 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:43,359 progressives that are unemployable going into politics is the new grift, 405 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:45,440 and the old ones who are still trying to cash 406 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:49,519 out on the grift. My perfect favorite joke from Reagan 407 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:53,359 the boys selling baby kittens at the DNC saying they 408 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:56,680 are Democrat kittens. The next week a reporter sees the 409 00:26:56,720 --> 00:27:01,200 same boy selling kittens saying they are Republicans, and the 410 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:05,720 reporter asked what changed, and the boy says, they opened 411 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:15,359 their eyes. So here's the thing, Like, I understand that 412 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:18,640 Democrats weren't going to applaud for certain things that were 413 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:24,920 directly tied to Trump's or to Biden's policies, but on 414 00:27:25,039 --> 00:27:27,720 the ones that were not. And the kid, the thirteen 415 00:27:27,759 --> 00:27:32,160 year old DJ Daniels, the kid, the brain cancer survivor 416 00:27:33,079 --> 00:27:35,200 that didn't have anything to do with Joe Biden, had 417 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,720 nothing to do with Donald Trump, nothing to do with 418 00:27:37,759 --> 00:27:42,119 policies or anything. That story was told in a in 419 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:46,079 a nonpartisan, you know, a political way. But they had 420 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:51,079 their orders don't applaud anything, so they didn't, and the 421 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:55,200 optics just looked terrible. Tom, Welcome to the show. 422 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:57,960 Speaker 4: Hello Tom, all right, good evening. 423 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:03,519 Speaker 6: Real quickly, Trump never, according to what I saw, and 424 00:28:03,559 --> 00:28:10,240 then I watched ABC NBC commentary, he never addressed the economy. Now, 425 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:12,480 he talked about a lot of humanitarian things like the 426 00:28:12,519 --> 00:28:16,400 little boy you're talking about and the Hayley's law or 427 00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:19,440 Katie's law whatever, but he never addressed the economy. And 428 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:23,640 the second thing, yes, he did, Well, you need to 429 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:25,759 talk it up, take that up with ABC, NBC, COUB. 430 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:28,319 Speaker 1: I don't need to take anything up with ABC or NBC. 431 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:30,200 I just know I watched the thing. I mean, I 432 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:31,960 watched it last night, and then I listened to the 433 00:28:32,079 --> 00:28:34,640 entire thing again. He talked about tariffs, he talked about 434 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:36,680 egg prices, and Democrats scoffed at it. 435 00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:40,039 Speaker 6: Well, anyway, okay, let's let me move on. 436 00:28:40,119 --> 00:28:41,039 Speaker 1: So yeah, let's move on. 437 00:28:42,039 --> 00:28:47,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, okay. Number two, Just because they didn't clap and 438 00:28:47,119 --> 00:28:50,319 they didn't do anything, he took it personal and he 439 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:54,000 scolded them. These are legislative people that have been in Congress, 440 00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:56,839 some of them career Congress and some of them not. 441 00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,880 But you don't do stuff like that. He scolded them, 442 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:04,640 And I agree last thing that mister Green, Congressman Green 443 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:09,000 should have been more decorum, but one wrong to mc 444 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:10,039 aerian Marjorie Taylor. 445 00:29:10,319 --> 00:29:12,240 Speaker 1: So it's okay when he did it, that's fine. 446 00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:15,279 Speaker 6: No, no, I'm saying Marjorie Taylor Green did it and 447 00:29:15,279 --> 00:29:17,920 they didn't throw her out, so he should have sat down. 448 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:21,440 But my point is, I just think Trump gave a 449 00:29:21,559 --> 00:29:22,720 massy massy speech. 450 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:26,000 Speaker 1: Take care by by Yeah, well, I suspect that is 451 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:31,400 your opinion is informed by your prior bias, right, Like 452 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:34,319 people who watched it that hate Trump thought he did 453 00:29:34,319 --> 00:29:36,920 a terrible job, and people who love Trump that watched 454 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:40,680 it probably thought he did a great job. So I 455 00:29:40,799 --> 00:29:44,799 thought he did a good job. I thought the speech 456 00:29:45,759 --> 00:29:49,720 had a lot of good highlights, things that all Americans 457 00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:54,839 should be supportive of as Americans. Stories that he pointed 458 00:29:54,839 --> 00:29:58,319 out that were good stories about you know, good people 459 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:03,359 that should have one support and applause from everybody. But 460 00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:07,880 I understand, Look, it's difficult to watch that if you 461 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:12,839 are a Trump hater. That was difficult to watch, and 462 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:16,279 it would be difficult to watch, you know, if you're 463 00:30:16,279 --> 00:30:22,759 a Democrat that has no rudder on the ship. And 464 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:31,839 you know you're concern trolling over decorum. Yeah, I don't 465 00:30:31,839 --> 00:30:37,319 believe you anymore. Like, not Tom specifically, but like these 466 00:30:37,359 --> 00:30:41,240 calls for decorum, Like they spent the entire speech screaming 467 00:30:41,319 --> 00:30:46,640 at him, heckling him, disrupting him, showing signs. They had signs. 468 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:50,200 They were waving signs around like it's some freaking sporting event. 469 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:56,759 They they had organized to a disruptive proceeding ahead of time, 470 00:30:57,279 --> 00:30:59,920 and everybody on Capitol Hill knew it. That's why Speaker 471 00:31:00,039 --> 00:31:03,000 Mike Johnson had the language ready to go as soon 472 00:31:03,039 --> 00:31:06,559 as Al Green showed his ass. So that's how that happened. 473 00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:10,200 So no, Donald Trump, he walked in that when he 474 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:12,559 walked in the door and he turned to shake hands 475 00:31:12,599 --> 00:31:15,400 with Democrats and they literally turned their backs on him. 476 00:31:15,519 --> 00:31:18,480 So don't tell me that he's the one that scolded them, 477 00:31:18,519 --> 00:31:20,599 and he needs to respect the fact that they have 478 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:24,079 been there. He's the president. He deserves some respect too, 479 00:31:24,079 --> 00:31:26,480 if that's what we're you know, demanding of people that 480 00:31:26,519 --> 00:31:29,359 have occupied a certain position for any given period of time. 481 00:31:29,759 --> 00:31:34,200 So yeah, I don't I don't find the analysis to 482 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:41,319 be uh, to be legit Chris, Welcome to the show. Hey, Chris, I. 483 00:31:41,319 --> 00:31:43,359 Speaker 4: Say I got a minute or two left, real quick, 484 00:31:43,759 --> 00:31:46,400 I would be viying if you ever went national, I 485 00:31:46,039 --> 00:31:51,799 would be vying for the president of the Pete Calender Clubs. No, 486 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:55,039 but anyway, let me really quick get it. My point 487 00:31:56,279 --> 00:31:59,599 in relation to wording and redefinition, it really grinds my 488 00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:03,839 gears is that it happens, and sometimes societally we should 489 00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:07,720 do that. In the case of tariffs, Trump season tariff, 490 00:32:07,799 --> 00:32:11,640 I think the traditional understanding of tariffs is always for 491 00:32:11,759 --> 00:32:15,640 us to prop up an industry that might be losing ground, 492 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:19,599 per se, right, And what I'm seeing, if I'm not right, Craby, 493 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:22,319 what I'm seeing is kind of like more of a 494 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:26,440 tactic of pushing countries to probably do more. Could you 495 00:32:26,519 --> 00:32:28,480 probably expounded that a little bit more because I. 496 00:32:28,559 --> 00:32:32,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, Chris, really quick. Well I got twenty seconds, so 497 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:34,119 I don't have time. But I appreciate the call. By 498 00:32:34,119 --> 00:32:36,519 the way, fans of the show are called Pete Nicks, 499 00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:38,920 So just a heads up on that. I mean, if 500 00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:40,160 you're gonna be president of the club. 501 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:41,640 Speaker 5: But the. 502 00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:46,759 Speaker 1: Teriff issue, if you want a deep dive on the tariffs, 503 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:49,319 I did that the other day. I believe it may 504 00:32:49,359 --> 00:32:53,079 been yesterday or Monday. Get the Pete Pod the peatpod 505 00:32:53,119 --> 00:32:55,279 dot com. Subscribe to the podcast.
