Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of all Right.
We got two options here. We got oh you thought
this was a rabbit. They thought this was a rabbit.
It's Winnie the trending pooh fuck fourth of July. So
that's one option. Or you could do, you could do.
We will not go quietly into the night. We will
(00:22):
not vanish without a fight. I forgot that those two.
It opens with a rhyming couplet. That kind of sucks.
We're going to live on. We're going to survive today.
We celebrate our into trending stay. Oh yeah, fuck yeah,
because that's how we're all feeling right now.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
Oh hell yeah, dude.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
Hell yeah.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
I'm so thankful for the founding slaver, our fathers to
you know, do the thing and fireworks and hot dog.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
And firework and hot dog. My name is Jack O'Brien.
That over there is mister Miles Great.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
I'm hot dog. I love hot dog. I got spiral
cuts your hot dogs. Just a tip. It is fun.
It is fun.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
Get a spiral cut your cucumber. How you say.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Cucumber, No, how you say cucumber in English?
Speaker 1 (01:17):
It's pretty fun.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
Wait what do you but I mean you're not grilling
a cucumber.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Just spiral cut it. You just spiral cut it and
then it like kind of slinkies out.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
Yeah, yeah, it's cute. But the hot dog man kids
love it.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
Go.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
This is what you do. You render a pound of
bacon fat down and then you just deep fry these
spiral cut hot dogs and they're gonna get a fucking
crispy edge. Just so much surface area that you will
that you will perish, probably from you all that bullshit, but.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
We're all that's that's what our goal should be this
fourth of July. Uh, we will not. Actually, myles go
quietly into that night. We were vanished without a fight. No,
I said, ah, you don't stop. My name's Bill Pullman
(02:07):
or Packson. Nobody can tell the different. I can. He's Pullman, right, yeah,
he's Pullman.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
Pullman passed away.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Paxson is.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
Pathetic legend, the real legend, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (02:23):
All Right, A lot of bad shit happening on this
of July third. Yeah, first of all, I think they
did pass the us FKA. Big beautiful bill yep.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
FK Twigs is out here giving one hundred and seventy
billion dollars to ice enforcement countless others. Millions will be
kicked off of their Medicaid snap benefits are also going
to be just yeah, a lot of bad stuff, but hey,
at least all the Trump tax cuts. Yeah, only two
people ended up having their ship together.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
Talk a big game, but yeah, I guess always they
don't really give a fuck about like any of the
shit they claim to give a fuck about, Like the
balancing the budget has always been despite the fact that
it's covered as like the only real like true story,
the only real policy shit by like the mainstream media.
The balancing the budget is always complete horseshit, And every
(03:19):
time anybody gets into office, they're just going to spend
as much money as they can, and if they're a Republican,
they're going to spend it on enforcing white supremacy.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Yeah, the deficit is just something they say when a
Democrat is in power, and then they'll maybe say it
like this, but it's just like, you know, they're just
racists in the end. They're just racists, you know, because
trust me, no one was pushing back on like the
turbo charging ice and immigration rates. No, it's just like
they're broader than like, well, one a month in deficit,
(03:50):
and Lisa Murkowski, my god, you almost you could have
done it. You could have done it when it was
getting out of the Senate, but you decided to be like,
I had to do what's right for a lass, so
fuck the rest of them. So yep, yep, yep. That's
great news, I guess. So the other part of that.
Another thing that's trending around the passage of the big
(04:12):
beautiful bullshit bill is, you know, with the Republicans and Trump,
every accusation is a confession. Obviously, Trump has been screaming
about how Biden didn't know what what his administration was
up to. Who's actually signing this legislation is all auto pen,
it's all auto pen. That he wasn't he didn't even
know what legislation was happening. Well, every day, I think
(04:34):
it's become clear that Trump is not really in control
of this administration. Like obviously he's the president, but you know,
like it's like Russell Vaught, the architect of Project twenty
twenty five, he's clearly the one who's in charge of,
you know, the governmental dismantling operation. And then Stephen Miller
gets to be Baby Gerbels and act out his like
ethnic cleansing, secret police fantasy via quote immigration policy. But
(04:57):
now we talked yesterday about Trump can barely answer straightforward question,
even if reiterated crazy numerous times. But now we're hearing
so right before this past we heard about Republican holdouts
and Trump summoned them to the White House. But then
there was a bit of a holy shit, this guy's
really senile moment. This is a quote. This is reporting
(05:18):
from the outlet natas or notus n otus dot org quote.
According to three sources with direct knowledge of the comments,
the President told Republicans at this meeting that there are
three things Congress shouldn't touch if they want to win
elections Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Trump said that, yes, and then in giving a speech
to them, talking to them about.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Why they need to vote for the big beautiful.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Bill that is cutting this medicaid.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Exactly, then one congressman said to Trump, quote, but we're
touching medicaid in this bill. And then Trump seemed to
be confused as to what that was all about.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
And the one yesterday, just to refresh people's memory, was
somebody said so like it was that when he was
doing the opening for his concentration camp in Florida, and
they said how long do you expect prisoners to be
held here? And he said, what was that? How you
said how long.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Do you expect the detainees here to be held? Months? Days, weeks.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
I love it here in Florida. I expect to be here,
you know. I like it here. I like mar A Lago.
Back in Washington, d C. I'd do my best to
live in a diamond.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
So Lavis is like a diamond now. But it was
really it was really not well maintained. So yeah, I
mean that's that, literally is what happened. Yeah, he either
doesn't know or is totally forgotten that his tax cuts
for the oligarchs bill is coming at the expense of
people's benefits. But this feels just like another case of
(06:51):
people telling him what he wants to hear and then
just do doing whatever the fuck they want, because he
can't really keep a thought straight for too long, like
the alligator Alcatraz thing. Obviously a big part of that
was giving just a huge distraction to the media to
so Trump can do his thing but also in line
with what his policies are. But this took a lot
of attention like, oh, you're contra. But when you look
(07:14):
at how slap dashed the thing was put together, like
it couldn't even handle normal Florida weather. It feels like
this thing where it's like, Okay, he wants that, let's
build it, let's just get it done. We can move
on and we'll send some people there and we can
just go to his next weird fantasy.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
And he's treated like a like easily distractable child. Basically yeah, yeaheah.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
And anyone who has had family or friends that have
gone through like cognitive decline like dementia or something like this,
you know that this is not going to reverse and
suddenly he gets better. It's only going to progress. So
at that point, like on the lighter end of the spectrum,
(07:54):
is it like when the when he sees polling again
when this bill has passed and he's like, what the
hell is this? Why are they so mad at me?
What happened to medicaid? And he's gonna lash out at
his staff Or is it going to be something like
he orders a like sealed Team six to raid a
McDonald's that he thinks his dad's ghost is residing in
or something and yeah, I don't know, just just wanted
(08:19):
to point out that this is very don't tell Mom
the Babysitters Dead White House edition where it's like this, well.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
The fucking Democrats had that before. They had a whole
administration with a guy who was like asleep at the wheel,
and they used it to do fucking nothing.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Right, what does he want?
Speaker 1 (08:36):
Because they don't have convictions to fucking like do you know,
Like it was just like, yeah, we're they They could
have taken the opportunity when Joe Biden was suffering from demension,
didn't know what the fuck was going on, to actually
pass legislation that would fuck him in the long run,
but would like actually help people.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
These people don't have the sort of insatiable desire to
create more equality in the country. They say that, but
it's when you look at the people on the right
and their pursuit of like a white ethno state. Yes,
they're not fucking around, especially with Laura Lumers making claims like, oh,
there's going to be sixty five million meals for the alligators.
(09:20):
Quick Google search Latino population in United States sixty five million.
You're like, Okay, Jesus, that's what I'm like, it's not
immigrants at all, it's the idea that white people are
like this should just be a white place.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Yeah, that's what they're doing.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
They'll figure out new ways to categorize people on how
they need to be non citizens. Uh. And I think
that's why it's more important than ever to be fucking
really talking about this and pushing back at every every opportunity.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Though. Yeah, Democracy Now just reported the story of an
American citizen. I mean this just keeps happening, American citizens
being grabbed by men in masks, no outward uniforms. And
then when people contact the Department of Homeland Security to
be like, Okay, where are they, they're like, uh, this
story is a hoax. That but we don't have a
(10:08):
record of that person in the system. So it's like, oh,
so they were actually kidnapped. And then it's like, oh no,
it's just like we're accidentally arresting people because they just
happen to be brown and in the place where we're
doing a raid, ak, like where they're going to work, right, But.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Well, I don't know if it's a person going to
work who's not white.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Yeah, how do we know? You know? Sorry, place the
wrong time is fucking everywhere right now for anybody who
has brown skin.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
Yeah, but that's why we got to wear our masks, man,
because people are hitting us and stuff. It's really unsafe
out here being an ICE age as they fucking cry
about them. The assaults on ICE officers is increasing.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
I do, like, I really think they're going to try
and fucking arrest or on mom Donnie, like Trump is saying,
I wouldn't be surprised, yeah, but like he's like, we
can't have communists in this country. I'll protect New York
and also was saying like, then we'll have to arrest him. Look,
we don't need a communist in this country, but if
(11:15):
we have one, I'm going to be watching over him.
A lot of people are saying, he's here illegally, we're
gonna look at everything. So they straight up he's just
gonna arrest him. Like I don't, Like, I know that's illegal,
but that certainly is not stopping them anywhere else.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
I think, yeah, I don't know when that would. I
feel like he would have to get into office or
a bee on the precipice of that, yeah versus right now.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
But I but yeah, I don't think it'll be anytime soon,
but I do think that's eventually where it's going, Like they.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
Definitely yeah, the narrative arc of where this goes. I
feel like on some level.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
Yeah, because there's also Christie wants to do the most
provocative thing, like they're doing the most out in the
open provocative thing, because I think they want to start
like the thing in La where like there was you know,
people pushing back. That's what they They want to start
a civil war because then they can declare martial law
(12:11):
and suspend democracy, which seems to be the plan. Like
I think they're going to do like whatever the worst,
most offensively like anti democratic thing that you could possibly imagine. Like,
I think they're going to do that because they want
to be able to like call it, like claim that
they need to institute martial law.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Yeah, I mean. Christy Nome also said something pretty chilling
about like how she's like, Oh, there are powers that
the Department of Homeland Security has that we've barely explored yet,
and maybe we need to start thinking about how we
can use these powers more creatively. And you're like Jesus Christ, Yeah, anyway,
So fuck Forth of July puck Forth of July.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
Let's take a quick break. We'll be right back, and
we're back and uh rip to Michael Madson. Yeah, the
actor from Reservoir Dogs, Mister Blonde and Reservoir Dogs is
(13:17):
just found in his home, passed away of what they
appear to be natural causes in Malibu.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
He seemed to be struggling man.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
Yeah, last seemed many years.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
It was very, very difficult. And then also the footballer
Diogo Jota who plays for Liverpool and the Portuguese national team,
along with his brother, they passed away in a car accident.
Oh Jesus, And it's like, you know, like when the
athlete dies and you like you're really into a sport,
and even if they're not on your team, it's just like,
(13:50):
you know, because you see them play, you have this
sort of not a parasocial relationship necessarily, but some connection
to it. This guy was twenty eight, He just got
married a few weeks ago. He just won a Nations
League trophy with Portugal. He just won the Premier League
with Liverpool, like for all intents and purposes, was having
like one of the greatest years of his life and
(14:10):
then dies tragically in a car accident. Just really fucking awful,
awful shit and we are all hanging by a thread.
Uh and yeah, just I don't know that. I'm very
upset by it. It's just really fucked up, man, especially
when you think too, like when you think of professional
he's like, oh man, this guy's like, this guy's doing
(14:31):
it all, and you're like, this guy's fucking youngest, twelve
years younger than me, you know, and the life that
was ahead of him, leaving three children behind. H it's
so so devastating. So I just wanted just to bring
that up because it's a really really sad, sad story.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Yeah, all right, another sad story. American contractors US contractors
guarding aid distribution sites think Gaza are basically committing war crimes,
using live ammunition and stunt grenades on hungry Palestinians like
trying to get food.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
This whole joint venture of the AID stations being ran
by US and Israeli like companies forces. It's just it's
ended with they're just killing innocent people.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
And now it's wild too, because, like this story came
out because one of the guys who works for this
company spoke to the AP to be like, people are
fucking like doing whatever they want. Like it just feels
like they just have people that are unqualified, as they said, unqualified, unvetted,
heavily armed, and seem to have an open license to
(15:40):
do whatever they wished Jesus Christ, which is really horrifying,
as if, like the optics weren't even like more against
what is happening there, I mean just objectively, because what
is happening there is an just a case of genocide. Yeah,
but it seems like, you know, but also with like
Zorn's win, the the going hard on people that stand
(16:02):
up for Palestinians is not quite hitting the same way
it was maybe eighteen months ago.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Yeah, yeah, it feels like there. I there was this
segment on CNN. They're like new stats guy Harry Enton,
who used to be up five thirty eight this podcast,
was talking about the shift in support. Basically, they in
twenty seventeen, they polled democrats, who are you more sympathetic
(16:31):
to Israelis or Palestinians? And Democrats at that time twenty seventeen,
so this is like into the Trump administration, you know,
sympathized with Israeli's by a thirteen point margin. They asked
that same question this year and Democrats sympathized with Palestinians
by forty three points. Jeezkes, fifty six point shift. And
(16:57):
then if you ask people Democrats, who are you know
under the I think they the demographic was like eighteen
to forty nine, so like people who are not old, right, right,
And that shift was used to be Israelis by fourteen
points and now as Palestinians by fifty seven points. That's
(17:18):
a seventy point shift. Yeah, yeah, because yeah, because people
have like that's the thing is like a lot of
the media narrative has been like, well, but this is
not what Americans believe, or this is unpopular, or this
is and it's just like no, everybody has everybody's able
to see what the fuck is happening here. It's not.
(17:39):
It's just entrenched moneyed interests that are trying to stop
people from saying what they're seeing. You know.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Yeah, yeah, I think they're just also looking at that
mom Donnie race, like there was a ton of money
being spent against him, right and it did not like
he still do shit. Cuomo the fuck out, And even
down ballot there were other races where APAC and other
like pro Israeli groups were trying to like get people
who deign to say, stop the fucking violence in Gaza
(18:10):
out of office, and they failed there too, Like their
usual sort of attacks are just not ringing the same way.
And I think it's the same way. Like how when
you look at a lot of Democrats who are running,
who are like on this old way of doing things,
those messages just there were just like in a new era,
and I think everyone's kind of realizing, like what the
fuck are you supposed to say now? Like I used
(18:30):
to be able to be like we're gonna stop crime,
and people like, what the fuck are you talking about? Man?
Like my I can't afford to live talk about that,
Like I don't give a shit about this other stuff.
I'm about to start doing crime because I can't afford shit. Yeah,
this is it's it's definitely we're seeing a weakening. But
there's a piece in Jacobin talking about how like, well,
there's definitely this obviously projected strength that comes from groups
(18:53):
like APAC. When you look at their record, they're like,
it's it's not that they win every time they put
money in. And I think along with like the sort
of public sentiment around Gaza. It's just it shows that
things are just not quite what they used to be
in terms of just like lobbing attacks at people and
thinking that that's just going to do it and be
like this guy's Muslim. Sure maybe if this was two
(19:16):
thousand and five, so I'd be like, oh, but now
you're like this guy's Muslim. You're like, oh yeah, like
Ronny Yusef, I like that guy. Yeah yeah, oh like
other people. I know, what's the problem. It's not just
it's not not for it. I mean there are plenty
of people who are like, oh.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
What Yeah, but I mean I think it recently is
like twenty seventeen, Like that's those numbers are from twenty seventeen,
Like that's you know, I think things have shifted, like
very drastically, very quickly. Yeah. Yeah, but it's not I mean,
they're not going down without a fight. The University of
California system is making a law saying that student governments
(19:53):
are banned from boycotting Israel. So you can't boycott.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
Yeah, uh huh.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
Oh, now we're going to make you spend money.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
I mean, why can't I do this? Oh? Because we
were we were paid to put this in our by
laws pressure doing it. No, that's that's really a good
way to win people over, because it's objectively the right
thing to do is tell fucking student affinity groups that
they can't cool.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
Yeah, so they'll keep pushing, but I like the tide
has completely shifted. They're not stopping this as long as
there's just continued slaughter of innocent people over there. And
I don't I don't see it changing. And I feel
like the z are On race is going to wake
a lot of people up, but it's going to have
to be happening against the push of like the democratic establishment.
(20:46):
You know. Yeah, they're not they're not going to be
learning this lesson anytime.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
So Kirsten Jillibrand did apologize.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
Oh damn, Yeah, yeah she was big news.
Speaker 2 (20:55):
That's yeah, big news. New York senator says, sorry for
the global jihadology.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
That's how they were. That's how like the you know,
the New York Times and like Center Media Center in
quotes Media Works as like they issue a correction and
regret the error. But like that's obviously they're doing that
after all of the damage is done.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
Yeah, And I even like the governor hulkl like even
somehow found herself on the right. So it's like, oh,
you shouldn't. She shouldn't be doing that. That's that's not
good smearing somebody. But yeah, apparently she she spoke on
the phone on Wednesday and said congratulations and I'm I'm
I'm sorry quote, maybe we can set a path to
(21:39):
move forward productively. Okay.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Then they're acting like they're fucking like they're working with
a far right group and not like the person who
should be showing them the path forward for the like,
maybe we can like that's the same statement that they
issue when like Donald Trump wins. Yeah, I know, we
can like work together productively.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
I'm sorry. Is he one of your ops? Yeah, I
mean for keeping it on hundred, Yeah he is. He
is one of our ops because we're here to protect
the status quo. But maybe there is a way that
we can find a way to it.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
But it's going to have to be all you know,
people driven it can it's not going to be any
of these institutions. They're all going to be fighting it
like it's a fucking cancer, you know.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Yeah, yep, yep, yep.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
Hey huh. Happy fourth of July, Hey, forth of July.
The fourth of July. What what a great clip. That
was even more on point than I even realized at
the time. It's just when they said it's Winnie the
fucking Pooh.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
Before again, I can't emphasize enough how important this clip
is to our culture.
Speaker 1 (22:56):
Thank you, just.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Broadly and everyone on the internet, everybody who loves a
rabbit or loves Fourth of July. This is this is
really the only way, and I gotta play it again
because this is the only sound that we should be
hearing on the poorly. Yeah again, this comes from hitting
like rabba.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
M hm. They thought this was a rabbit.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
Oh that's funny, because that's funny, bitch.

Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of all Right.
We got two options here. We got oh you thought
this was a rabbit. They thought this was a rabbit.
It's Winnie the trending pooh fuck fourth of July. So
that's one option. Or you could do, you could do.
We will not go quietly into the night. We will
(00:22):
not vanish without a fight. I forgot that those two.
It opens with a rhyming couplet. That kind of sucks.
We're going to live on. We're going to survive today.
We celebrate our into trending stay. Oh yeah, fuck yeah,
because that's how we're all feeling right now.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
Oh hell yeah, dude.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
Hell yeah.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
I'm so thankful for the founding slaver, our fathers to
you know, do the thing and fireworks and hot dog.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
And firework and hot dog. My name is Jack O'Brien.
That over there is mister Miles Great.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
I'm hot dog. I love hot dog. I got spiral
cuts your hot dogs. Just a tip. It is fun.
It is fun.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
Get a spiral cut your cucumber. How you say.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Cucumber, No, how you say cucumber in English?
Speaker 1 (01:17):
It's pretty fun.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
Wait what do you but I mean you're not grilling
a cucumber.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Just spiral cut it. You just spiral cut it and
then it like kind of slinkies out.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
Yeah, yeah, it's cute. But the hot dog man kids
love it.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
Go.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
This is what you do. You render a pound of
bacon fat down and then you just deep fry these
spiral cut hot dogs and they're gonna get a fucking
crispy edge. Just so much surface area that you will
that you will perish, probably from you all that bullshit, but.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
We're all that's that's what our goal should be this
fourth of July. Uh, we will not. Actually, myles go
quietly into that night. We were vanished without a fight. No,
I said, ah, you don't stop. My name's Bill Pullman
(02:07):
or Packson. Nobody can tell the different. I can. He's Pullman, right, yeah,
he's Pullman.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
Pullman passed away.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Paxson is.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
Pathetic legend, the real legend, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (02:23):
All Right, A lot of bad shit happening on this
of July third. Yeah, first of all, I think they
did pass the us FKA. Big beautiful bill yep.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
FK Twigs is out here giving one hundred and seventy
billion dollars to ice enforcement countless others. Millions will be
kicked off of their Medicaid snap benefits are also going
to be just yeah, a lot of bad stuff, but hey,
at least all the Trump tax cuts. Yeah, only two
people ended up having their ship together.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
Talk a big game, but yeah, I guess always they
don't really give a fuck about like any of the
shit they claim to give a fuck about, Like the
balancing the budget has always been despite the fact that
it's covered as like the only real like true story,
the only real policy shit by like the mainstream media.
The balancing the budget is always complete horseshit, And every
(03:19):
time anybody gets into office, they're just going to spend
as much money as they can, and if they're a Republican,
they're going to spend it on enforcing white supremacy.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Yeah, the deficit is just something they say when a
Democrat is in power, and then they'll maybe say it
like this, but it's just like, you know, they're just
racists in the end. They're just racists, you know, because
trust me, no one was pushing back on like the
turbo charging ice and immigration rates. No, it's just like
they're broader than like, well, one a month in deficit,
(03:50):
and Lisa Murkowski, my god, you almost you could have
done it. You could have done it when it was
getting out of the Senate, but you decided to be like,
I had to do what's right for a lass, so
fuck the rest of them. So yep, yep, yep. That's
great news, I guess. So the other part of that.
Another thing that's trending around the passage of the big
(04:12):
beautiful bullshit bill is, you know, with the Republicans and Trump,
every accusation is a confession. Obviously, Trump has been screaming
about how Biden didn't know what what his administration was
up to. Who's actually signing this legislation is all auto pen,
it's all auto pen. That he wasn't he didn't even
know what legislation was happening. Well, every day, I think
(04:34):
it's become clear that Trump is not really in control
of this administration. Like obviously he's the president, but you know,
like it's like Russell Vaught, the architect of Project twenty
twenty five, he's clearly the one who's in charge of,
you know, the governmental dismantling operation. And then Stephen Miller
gets to be Baby Gerbels and act out his like
ethnic cleansing, secret police fantasy via quote immigration policy. But
(04:57):
now we talked yesterday about Trump can barely answer straightforward question,
even if reiterated crazy numerous times. But now we're hearing
so right before this past we heard about Republican holdouts
and Trump summoned them to the White House. But then
there was a bit of a holy shit, this guy's
really senile moment. This is a quote. This is reporting
(05:18):
from the outlet natas or notus n otus dot org quote.
According to three sources with direct knowledge of the comments,
the President told Republicans at this meeting that there are
three things Congress shouldn't touch if they want to win
elections Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Trump said that, yes, and then in giving a speech
to them, talking to them about.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Why they need to vote for the big beautiful.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Bill that is cutting this medicaid.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Exactly, then one congressman said to Trump, quote, but we're
touching medicaid in this bill. And then Trump seemed to
be confused as to what that was all about.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
And the one yesterday, just to refresh people's memory, was
somebody said so like it was that when he was
doing the opening for his concentration camp in Florida, and
they said how long do you expect prisoners to be
held here? And he said, what was that? How you
said how long.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Do you expect the detainees here to be held? Months? Days, weeks.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
I love it here in Florida. I expect to be here,
you know. I like it here. I like mar A Lago.
Back in Washington, d C. I'd do my best to
live in a diamond.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
So Lavis is like a diamond now. But it was
really it was really not well maintained. So yeah, I
mean that's that, literally is what happened. Yeah, he either
doesn't know or is totally forgotten that his tax cuts
for the oligarchs bill is coming at the expense of
people's benefits. But this feels just like another case of
(06:51):
people telling him what he wants to hear and then
just do doing whatever the fuck they want, because he
can't really keep a thought straight for too long, like
the alligator Alcatraz thing. Obviously a big part of that
was giving just a huge distraction to the media to
so Trump can do his thing but also in line
with what his policies are. But this took a lot
of attention like, oh, you're contra. But when you look
(07:14):
at how slap dashed the thing was put together, like
it couldn't even handle normal Florida weather. It feels like
this thing where it's like, Okay, he wants that, let's
build it, let's just get it done. We can move
on and we'll send some people there and we can
just go to his next weird fantasy.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
And he's treated like a like easily distractable child. Basically yeah, yeaheah.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
And anyone who has had family or friends that have
gone through like cognitive decline like dementia or something like this,
you know that this is not going to reverse and
suddenly he gets better. It's only going to progress. So
at that point, like on the lighter end of the spectrum,
(07:54):
is it like when the when he sees polling again
when this bill has passed and he's like, what the
hell is this? Why are they so mad at me?
What happened to medicaid? And he's gonna lash out at
his staff Or is it going to be something like
he orders a like sealed Team six to raid a
McDonald's that he thinks his dad's ghost is residing in
or something and yeah, I don't know, just just wanted
(08:19):
to point out that this is very don't tell Mom
the Babysitters Dead White House edition where it's like this, well.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
The fucking Democrats had that before. They had a whole
administration with a guy who was like asleep at the wheel,
and they used it to do fucking nothing.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Right, what does he want?
Speaker 1 (08:36):
Because they don't have convictions to fucking like do you know,
Like it was just like, yeah, we're they They could
have taken the opportunity when Joe Biden was suffering from demension,
didn't know what the fuck was going on, to actually
pass legislation that would fuck him in the long run,
but would like actually help people.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
These people don't have the sort of insatiable desire to
create more equality in the country. They say that, but
it's when you look at the people on the right
and their pursuit of like a white ethno state. Yes,
they're not fucking around, especially with Laura Lumers making claims like, oh,
there's going to be sixty five million meals for the alligators.
(09:20):
Quick Google search Latino population in United States sixty five million.
You're like, Okay, Jesus, that's what I'm like, it's not
immigrants at all, it's the idea that white people are
like this should just be a white place.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Yeah, that's what they're doing.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
They'll figure out new ways to categorize people on how
they need to be non citizens. Uh. And I think
that's why it's more important than ever to be fucking
really talking about this and pushing back at every every opportunity.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Though. Yeah, Democracy Now just reported the story of an
American citizen. I mean this just keeps happening, American citizens
being grabbed by men in masks, no outward uniforms. And
then when people contact the Department of Homeland Security to
be like, Okay, where are they, they're like, uh, this
story is a hoax. That but we don't have a
(10:08):
record of that person in the system. So it's like, oh,
so they were actually kidnapped. And then it's like, oh no,
it's just like we're accidentally arresting people because they just
happen to be brown and in the place where we're
doing a raid, ak, like where they're going to work, right, But.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Well, I don't know if it's a person going to
work who's not white.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Yeah, how do we know? You know? Sorry, place the
wrong time is fucking everywhere right now for anybody who
has brown skin.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
Yeah, but that's why we got to wear our masks, man,
because people are hitting us and stuff. It's really unsafe
out here being an ICE age as they fucking cry
about them. The assaults on ICE officers is increasing.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
I do, like, I really think they're going to try
and fucking arrest or on mom Donnie, like Trump is saying,
I wouldn't be surprised, yeah, but like he's like, we
can't have communists in this country. I'll protect New York
and also was saying like, then we'll have to arrest him. Look,
we don't need a communist in this country, but if
(11:15):
we have one, I'm going to be watching over him.
A lot of people are saying, he's here illegally, we're
gonna look at everything. So they straight up he's just
gonna arrest him. Like I don't, Like, I know that's illegal,
but that certainly is not stopping them anywhere else.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
I think, yeah, I don't know when that would. I
feel like he would have to get into office or
a bee on the precipice of that, yeah versus right now.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
But I but yeah, I don't think it'll be anytime soon,
but I do think that's eventually where it's going, Like they.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
Definitely yeah, the narrative arc of where this goes. I
feel like on some level.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
Yeah, because there's also Christie wants to do the most
provocative thing, like they're doing the most out in the
open provocative thing, because I think they want to start
like the thing in La where like there was you know,
people pushing back. That's what they They want to start
a civil war because then they can declare martial law
(12:11):
and suspend democracy, which seems to be the plan. Like
I think they're going to do like whatever the worst,
most offensively like anti democratic thing that you could possibly imagine. Like,
I think they're going to do that because they want
to be able to like call it, like claim that
they need to institute martial law.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Yeah, I mean. Christy Nome also said something pretty chilling
about like how she's like, Oh, there are powers that
the Department of Homeland Security has that we've barely explored yet,
and maybe we need to start thinking about how we
can use these powers more creatively. And you're like Jesus Christ, Yeah, anyway,
So fuck Forth of July puck Forth of July.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
Let's take a quick break. We'll be right back, and
we're back and uh rip to Michael Madson. Yeah, the
actor from Reservoir Dogs, Mister Blonde and Reservoir Dogs is
(13:17):
just found in his home, passed away of what they
appear to be natural causes in Malibu.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
He seemed to be struggling man.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
Yeah, last seemed many years.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
It was very, very difficult. And then also the footballer
Diogo Jota who plays for Liverpool and the Portuguese national team,
along with his brother, they passed away in a car accident.
Oh Jesus, And it's like, you know, like when the
athlete dies and you like you're really into a sport,
and even if they're not on your team, it's just like,
(13:50):
you know, because you see them play, you have this
sort of not a parasocial relationship necessarily, but some connection
to it. This guy was twenty eight, He just got
married a few weeks ago. He just won a Nations
League trophy with Portugal. He just won the Premier League
with Liverpool, like for all intents and purposes, was having
like one of the greatest years of his life and
(14:10):
then dies tragically in a car accident. Just really fucking awful,
awful shit and we are all hanging by a thread.
Uh and yeah, just I don't know that. I'm very
upset by it. It's just really fucked up, man, especially
when you think too, like when you think of professional
he's like, oh man, this guy's like, this guy's doing
(14:31):
it all, and you're like, this guy's fucking youngest, twelve
years younger than me, you know, and the life that
was ahead of him, leaving three children behind. H it's
so so devastating. So I just wanted just to bring
that up because it's a really really sad, sad story.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Yeah, all right, another sad story. American contractors US contractors
guarding aid distribution sites think Gaza are basically committing war crimes,
using live ammunition and stunt grenades on hungry Palestinians like
trying to get food.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
This whole joint venture of the AID stations being ran
by US and Israeli like companies forces. It's just it's
ended with they're just killing innocent people.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
And now it's wild too, because, like this story came
out because one of the guys who works for this
company spoke to the AP to be like, people are
fucking like doing whatever they want. Like it just feels
like they just have people that are unqualified, as they said, unqualified, unvetted,
heavily armed, and seem to have an open license to
(15:40):
do whatever they wished Jesus Christ, which is really horrifying,
as if, like the optics weren't even like more against
what is happening there, I mean just objectively, because what
is happening there is an just a case of genocide. Yeah,
but it seems like, you know, but also with like
Zorn's win, the the going hard on people that stand
(16:02):
up for Palestinians is not quite hitting the same way
it was maybe eighteen months ago.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Yeah, yeah, it feels like there. I there was this
segment on CNN. They're like new stats guy Harry Enton,
who used to be up five thirty eight this podcast,
was talking about the shift in support. Basically, they in
twenty seventeen, they polled democrats, who are you more sympathetic
(16:31):
to Israelis or Palestinians? And Democrats at that time twenty seventeen,
so this is like into the Trump administration, you know,
sympathized with Israeli's by a thirteen point margin. They asked
that same question this year and Democrats sympathized with Palestinians
by forty three points. Jeezkes, fifty six point shift. And
(16:57):
then if you ask people Democrats, who are you know
under the I think they the demographic was like eighteen
to forty nine, so like people who are not old, right, right,
And that shift was used to be Israelis by fourteen
points and now as Palestinians by fifty seven points. That's
(17:18):
a seventy point shift. Yeah, yeah, because yeah, because people
have like that's the thing is like a lot of
the media narrative has been like, well, but this is
not what Americans believe, or this is unpopular, or this
is and it's just like no, everybody has everybody's able
to see what the fuck is happening here. It's not.
(17:39):
It's just entrenched moneyed interests that are trying to stop
people from saying what they're seeing. You know.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Yeah, yeah, I think they're just also looking at that
mom Donnie race, like there was a ton of money
being spent against him, right and it did not like
he still do shit. Cuomo the fuck out, And even
down ballot there were other races where APAC and other
like pro Israeli groups were trying to like get people
who deign to say, stop the fucking violence in Gaza
(18:10):
out of office, and they failed there too, Like their
usual sort of attacks are just not ringing the same way.
And I think it's the same way. Like how when
you look at a lot of Democrats who are running,
who are like on this old way of doing things,
those messages just there were just like in a new era,
and I think everyone's kind of realizing, like what the
fuck are you supposed to say now? Like I used
(18:30):
to be able to be like we're gonna stop crime,
and people like, what the fuck are you talking about? Man?
Like my I can't afford to live talk about that,
Like I don't give a shit about this other stuff.
I'm about to start doing crime because I can't afford shit. Yeah,
this is it's it's definitely we're seeing a weakening. But
there's a piece in Jacobin talking about how like, well,
there's definitely this obviously projected strength that comes from groups
(18:53):
like APAC. When you look at their record, they're like,
it's it's not that they win every time they put
money in. And I think along with like the sort
of public sentiment around Gaza. It's just it shows that
things are just not quite what they used to be
in terms of just like lobbing attacks at people and
thinking that that's just going to do it and be
like this guy's Muslim. Sure maybe if this was two
(19:16):
thousand and five, so I'd be like, oh, but now
you're like this guy's Muslim. You're like, oh yeah, like
Ronny Yusef, I like that guy. Yeah yeah, oh like
other people. I know, what's the problem. It's not just
it's not not for it. I mean there are plenty
of people who are like, oh.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
What Yeah, but I mean I think it recently is
like twenty seventeen, Like that's those numbers are from twenty seventeen,
Like that's you know, I think things have shifted, like
very drastically, very quickly. Yeah. Yeah, but it's not I mean,
they're not going down without a fight. The University of
California system is making a law saying that student governments
(19:53):
are banned from boycotting Israel. So you can't boycott.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
Yeah, uh huh.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
Oh, now we're going to make you spend money.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
I mean, why can't I do this? Oh? Because we
were we were paid to put this in our by
laws pressure doing it. No, that's that's really a good
way to win people over, because it's objectively the right
thing to do is tell fucking student affinity groups that
they can't cool.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
Yeah, so they'll keep pushing, but I like the tide
has completely shifted. They're not stopping this as long as
there's just continued slaughter of innocent people over there. And
I don't I don't see it changing. And I feel
like the z are On race is going to wake
a lot of people up, but it's going to have
to be happening against the push of like the democratic establishment.
(20:46):
You know. Yeah, they're not they're not going to be
learning this lesson anytime.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
So Kirsten Jillibrand did apologize.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
Oh damn, Yeah, yeah she was big news.
Speaker 2 (20:55):
That's yeah, big news. New York senator says, sorry for
the global jihadology.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
That's how they were. That's how like the you know,
the New York Times and like Center Media Center in
quotes Media Works as like they issue a correction and
regret the error. But like that's obviously they're doing that
after all of the damage is done.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
Yeah, And I even like the governor hulkl like even
somehow found herself on the right. So it's like, oh,
you shouldn't. She shouldn't be doing that. That's that's not
good smearing somebody. But yeah, apparently she she spoke on
the phone on Wednesday and said congratulations and I'm I'm
I'm sorry quote, maybe we can set a path to
(21:39):
move forward productively. Okay.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Then they're acting like they're fucking like they're working with
a far right group and not like the person who
should be showing them the path forward for the like,
maybe we can like that's the same statement that they
issue when like Donald Trump wins. Yeah, I know, we
can like work together productively.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
I'm sorry. Is he one of your ops? Yeah, I
mean for keeping it on hundred, Yeah he is. He
is one of our ops because we're here to protect
the status quo. But maybe there is a way that
we can find a way to it.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
But it's going to have to be all you know,
people driven it can it's not going to be any
of these institutions. They're all going to be fighting it
like it's a fucking cancer, you know.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Yeah, yep, yep, yep.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
Hey huh. Happy fourth of July, Hey, forth of July.
The fourth of July. What what a great clip. That
was even more on point than I even realized at
the time. It's just when they said it's Winnie the
fucking Pooh.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
Before again, I can't emphasize enough how important this clip
is to our culture.
Speaker 1 (22:56):
Thank you, just.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Broadly and everyone on the internet, everybody who loves a
rabbit or loves Fourth of July. This is this is
really the only way, and I gotta play it again
because this is the only sound that we should be
hearing on the poorly. Yeah again, this comes from hitting
like rabba.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
M hm. They thought this was a rabbit.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
Oh that's funny, because that's funny, bitch.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
It's fucking Winnie the fucking Pooh. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah
yeah Fourth of July. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah.
