(01:37):
but I want to start with something that occurred on
Glenn Beck's program yesterday. So this is courtesy of the
Glenn Back program. But one of the things that I
had posted about on X was one of the things
that Republicans have got to learn.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Now.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Democrats have got to learn some things too, but let's
talk about Republicans first. Republicans have got to learn to govern,
and Republicans as much as Democrats do, Republicans need to
sit back, shut up, and sit down for a moment.
And the reason I say that with such is because
(02:21):
we have another election going on, and it's election, an
election to it's a vote to elect the Senate Majority leader,
who is currently Chuck Schumer, the senior Senator from New York.
So we need to elect something. And Mitch McConnell, who
(02:42):
I think is going to retire at the end of
his term, has already announced that he is going to
step down as if the Senate goes Republican, which it has,
that he will not seek to be majority leader anymore. Now.
I have kind of a love hate relationship with the
Mitch McConnell because he flip flops all the time. Some
(03:06):
days he supports Trump, some days he doesn't, But he
is a master when it comes to picking good people
to run that are electable. Now, I may not agree
with the people that he elect that he chooses, but
the Senate Majority leader controls something called the Senate Majority Fund.
(03:30):
It's the Senate it's the Senate Campaign Fund, and they
use that. I mean, there's hundreds of billions of dollars
in this campaign fund and they use it. All senators
contribute to it. They raise all of this money and
(03:52):
that money is used to elect Republican senators across the
country to keep a majority. And Mitch mc connell was
good at that. Didn't always like the people he chose,
but they tend to get elected. The three people that
have announced that they want to be the new Senate
(04:13):
majority leader when Republicans take over in January. John Cornyn
of Texas, John Thune of oh I forget South Dakasa.
I forget now no North and South Dakota, one of
the Dakotas. And Rick Scott of Florida.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Now come on.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
With all due respect to my friends that listen to
the program in Texas, you know that John Cornyn is
a piece of you know what. He is the biggest
non conservative conservative in the US Senate. He's a horrible senator,
(04:58):
but he's been there forever. I don't know why you
guys keep electing him. I just don't get it. It's
like you are you trying to make up for electing
a really conservative like Ted Cruz, so you feel guilty,
So let's elect you know, a Republican a name only
like John Cornyn. He's not a conservative, he's a swamp rat.
(05:21):
So no, no, no, John Cornyn, mark him off the list.
John Thune is only slightly better. I mean, if he
came down to John Cornan and John Thune, I'd say, okay,
John Thune. But there's a third alternative, Rick Scott. Now,
(05:43):
Rick Scott hasn't always been a what I would call
a die hard conservative, but I think he's learned, and
of all the three, that would be my choice. So
the very first decision that the new Republican majority is
(06:06):
going to have to make is who are we going
to elect to be our leader in the Senate. Now
why is this important? It's incredibly important because the Senate
majority leader sets the agenda. The Senate majority leader has
the ultimate power to decide which piece of legislation actually
(06:30):
gets a vote. So let's say that there's a bill to, oh,
I don't know, a boliy income tax. Let's let's just go.
Let's let's let's have a wet dream here that there's
a bill to a bolihe income tax the Senate majority
and let's say it passes the House, it goes to
(06:51):
the Senate. Well, the Senate majority leader can kill the
bill by assigning it to a committee and tell that
committee chair, don't you ever hold a hearing. Or he
can just keep the bill on his desk figuratively speaking,
and never even assign it to a committee. He can
kill the legislation. Or let's say that he goes, okay,
(07:14):
go have a you know, go have a hearing. Go
do all that stuff and it gets voted out a committee,
but he never brings it up for a vote on
the Senate floor. The Senate majority leader also has the
appointment power. Who am I going to select to be
the chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee? Who am I
(07:37):
going to select to be the chairman of the Senate
Judiciary Committee? You know that might get to oversee some
Can you amend it if you want to drive your
Democrat friends apoplectic, if you want to see him have
a brain aneurysm. Let them think about the possibility of
Trump during the next four years getting to appoint some
new Supreme Court justices. Now, I don't think Clarence Thomas
(07:59):
is going to retire, but let's say that Clarence Thomas
or Samuel Aldo decide to retire. Well, Trump, now with
the Senate majority of Republicans, could appoint younger conservative constitutionalists
to replace those two. Or let's take Sonya Soda Mayor,
(08:23):
the longest serving Liberal justice. She's seventy two years old
or something. She has Type one diabetes. She gives no
indication of retiring anytime soon. I don't know why she would,
but let's say for whatever reason, Let's say that she
has some health issue and she decides that she'd you know,
(08:44):
I need to retire. Oh, now Trump gets to replace her. Well,
the US Senate controlled by Republicans, I hope would and
a Senate Majority leader would push through a constitutionalist and originalist,
someone who would look at the Constitution and say, oh, look,
(09:07):
it says the right of the people to keeping bare
arms shall not be infringed. And it says shall not
be infringed. That's what it means. There is the possibility
of some amazing things in the next just four years,
and I'm not even talking about perhaps the next twelve
(09:27):
years or longer. So the election of the Senate Majority
leader is incredibly important. But what if none of those
people became the Senate Majority leader? What if it was
somebody else? Wait till you hear what someone has suggested.
(09:50):
So the Weekend with Michael Brown, stay tuned. That's next. Hey,
welcome back to the Weekend with my Brow. I'm glad
to have you with me. I appreciate you tuning in.
So we're talking about the awesome power of the Senate
Majority leader, because that's the next big shoot to drop
in terms of this new era. Of conservative what I
(10:14):
hope to be conservative governance for at least the next
four years. And of course, with the Democrats in as
much disarray as they are right now, absolutely refusing to
understand why they lost. Oh my gosh, we may do
that the next hour. I really think it's worth thinking
(10:35):
about and understanding why I believe they lost. But right
now we're talking about the Senate majority leader. So the
three names have been tossed in the hat, and I
don't think that there's much of the unanimous agreement that
any one of these three would be a great Senate
Majority leader. Now, think about what I told you in
(10:57):
that last segment about how much power the Senate Majority
leader has. Think it just about Supreme Court justices.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
You know.
Speaker 3 (11:06):
One of the things that happens when a Supreme Court
vacancy occurs, or you know what, well, wait, it usually happens,
is this, a justice will uh ask for a meeting
with the President and say, uh, mister President, I'm thinking
about retiring and I wanted to give you a heads
up so that you have time to start thinking about
(11:29):
my replacement. And then they, you know, they go back
to their chambers and do their work. But the White
House goes into full operational mode. Let's let's start scouring
now they may already have. In fact, this is one
of the things that probably Susie Wiley, the Chief of Staff,
will do. Let's start compiling a list of names. Let's
(11:50):
go to the Federalist Society. Let's let's start looking at
some of the Appellate Court, just just judges, and let's
start compiling a potential list of names for any Supreme
Court justices that we might have an opportunity to a
point so that when that meeting occurs between a retiring justice,
but even before it's announced, they can at least start
(12:13):
vetting a few people to whittle it down to three,
four or five names. Well, they'll let the Senate Majority
leader know that this is going to come up, and
the Majority leader can either fast track that slow walkeet
as they did with one of Obama's you know, Merrick Garland,
(12:34):
the current Attorney General, almost became a US Supreme Court
justice because in Barack Obama's lane term he nominated Merrick Garland.
But Mitch McConnell refused to bring it to a vote
because he knew that come January he was going to
(12:57):
have a Republican majority, So he just sat on that nomination,
didn't do anything. That's how powerful they are. So whoever
that next majority leader is, I wanted to be someone
that is going to carry forward the agenda of Donald
(13:17):
Trump and JD. Evans. Do you know who the president
of the Senate is? Do you? The United States Constitution
says that the Vice President of the United States shall
serve as the President of the Senate and preside over
(13:39):
the Senate when necessary, and will break ties in the
Senate when necessary.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Oh huh?
Speaker 3 (13:52):
Do you know who the first vice president of the
United States was? Who was Washington's Vice President, John Adams.
John Adams was the first president of the United States Senate.
Do you know that John Adams presided over the US
(14:13):
Senate as the Senate majority leader two hundred years ago? Yes,
the Constitution says he's the president of the Senate. Just
as let me draw a little bit of a parallel
for you. Everybody thinks that the speaker of the House
(14:34):
of Representatives has to be a member of the United
States Congress.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
It does not.
Speaker 3 (14:40):
Anybody hell's bells. If they went crazy enough, they could
nominate me enough. It not that I would get enough votes.
But they if they thought they had the votes, if
they thought they had two hundred and eighteen votes to
confirm me as the Speaker of the House, they could
do that. It doesn't have to be a member of Congress.
(15:01):
He can be anybody. The House gets to decide who
their speaker is. Well, the Senate doesn't get to decide
who their president is. That's set by the Constitution, and
the President of the Senate, the equivalent of the Speaker
of the House, is the Vice President of the United States. Hmmm,
(15:26):
what if the Senators decided to vote to make jd
Vance their Senate majority leader. This little conversation occurred on
the Glenn Beck Show yesterday.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
Take a listen the Senate as we're talking about Mike Lee.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
Uh, he's talking Mike Lee.
Speaker 4 (15:51):
I don't know if you saw this, but Thoon just
came out yesterday and said, you know, for his own
good Donald Trump should stay out of this Senate race.
And I thought, well, okay, well, you just signed your
own death warrant. But uh, you know, Cornyn and Thun,
that is business as usual.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
If we don't have.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
I totally agree, you know, Beck and I may have
our disagreements but I totally agree with him on this one.
Thuon and Cornyn are just bad. That's just a bad idea.
Rick Scott, Okay, I can live with skip Rick Scott.
Speaker 4 (16:26):
But hang tight, somebody who I mean, he's do you
think he'll put his thumb on the scale and come out.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
For Rick Scott.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Let me tell you, Let me tell you the Charlie
Kirk plan, which is now going public soon, or Cornyn
is almost assuredly going to win. John Adams presided over
the US Senate as Senate majority leader two hundred years
ago as Vice President United States. So I think Jadi Van,
I think jad Van should be president of the Senate
and become Senate maatority leader.
Speaker 4 (16:52):
And he would make him in love with that. I
am in love with that. I said that just the
other day. I didn't know if anybody you know, if
if that, you know, it was possible with JD.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
But he would be fantastic.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
Again, I gotta give credit. Yeah, go ahead, I'm sorry.
Speaker 4 (17:09):
Does he get does he get the access to the
Senate GOP funds?
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Yes? So so yeah, let me let me build out
how this would work. So essentially, the Constitution says that
the Vice President is the President of the Senate, highest
ranking officer, and when he sits in the chair that
that's the way it is. There is no question about it.
This is again Senator Mike Lee came up with. This
is a one am phone call from Senator Michaeley last
night and he had he had me at Hello and.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Think about that.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
Now, stay tuned. They're not quite done. Charlie Kirk Glenn
Beck discussing the idea of jd Vance, who will be
the President of the Senate, also getting elected as Senate
Majority leader. Wow, you know, let me tell you about
a Fox voter analysis. I'll be right back.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Tonight.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
Michael Brown joins me here.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
The former FEMA director of talk show host Michael Brown.
Speaker 4 (18:08):
Brownie, No, Brownie, You're doing a heck of a job
the Weekend with Michael Brown.
Speaker 3 (18:13):
Hey, welcome back to the Weekend with Michael Brown. Glad
to have you with me. So we're talking about this
idea that was been floated by Mike Lee as for JD.
Vance to serve as the Senate majority leader. There the
vice President, according to the Constitution, is the president of
(18:33):
the Senate, so he can provide, he can preside over
proceedings of the Senate, and John Adams did that. John Adams,
of course, there was a different time. John Adams presided
over the US Senate, you know, newly formed country. First
vice president constitution says, I'm the President of the Senate.
(18:56):
I'll go bang the gavel and all I'll shuffle legislation through.
There was not such a thing as Senate Majority leader
during John Adams's term. But there is nothing that prevents
the President of the Senate serving as Senate Majority leader.
(19:23):
He can preside over the Senate. He can be the
Senate majority leader. And the idea is instead of electing
one of these existing senators now jd. Vance obviously isn't
is a Senator from Ohio. But once he's sworn in
on January twenty, twenty twenty five, he will vacate the
(19:45):
office as the junior Senator from Ohio and become the
Vice President of the United States and the president of
the US Senate. Somebody asking on the text line what
happens to his seat? That will get appointed by the
the governor, and obviously the governor will point a Republican
so they'll still maintain their majority. But this idea of
(20:09):
jd Vance serving as Majority Leader, would ensure that President
Trump's agenda gets a fair hearing in the US Senate. Because, again,
with all due respect to my friends in South Dakota,
Texas and for the matter Florida, who would you trust
(20:33):
more to see that bills that the president, once heard
by the Senate to actually be heard. Would you trust
John Cornyn to do that? I wouldn't. I wouldn't trust
John thun to do it, and I would slightly trust
Rick Scott to do it. Rick Scott has seen the light.
(20:56):
I can't say the same thing for John Thune and Cornyon. Plus,
here's the other thing. Here's the other thing man, as
Biden would say, here's the deal man. Jd Vance as
Vice President's got a lot of cachet that the other
three don't. Jd Vance as a newly elected US Senator
(21:22):
doesn't come with all the baggage that these guys that
have been there for you know, eighteen twenty four, thirty
some years. He doesn't have that baggage either. And jd
Vance's loyalty is to Donald Trump, not to special interests,
(21:42):
not to anybody that's trying to prevent or push legislation
through it would be a revolutionary idea and it would
show that the old way of just letting the establish
run everything, if those days are gone. You know, there
(22:05):
is worldwide and I think that Trump's the tip of
the spear of it. I've said before on this program
and on my weekday program that I believe that the
world has been kind of inching toward tyranny worldwide, Communism, fascism,
Marxism is getting its hold in places, even in places
(22:29):
like Germany, in France. Look at what happened in the Netherlands.
Did you see the literal anti Semitic attack against Jews
that had traveled from Israel to the Netherlands to watch
a soccer game, and when the soccer game was over,
there was a coordinated terrorist attack against Jews. And of
(22:54):
all places, Amsterdam, the home of Anne Frank. Seriously, the
United States, with the election of Donald Trump, has said stop,
We're not going to allow this kind of anti Semitism,
(23:15):
this kind of tyranny, this kind of Marxism and fascism
to get a toe hold. We're going to stop this. Well,
it's really no longer even conservative versus liberal, it's not
even Republican versus Democrat anymore. I think it's freedom and
(23:36):
liberty versus tyranny. I think that's where we are in
the history of the world, and that if you go
back to election night, Fox News had sat on this
information for and understand why they had been doing a
survey of hundreds of thousands of individuals to get a
(24:02):
voter profile. I forget what they called it, but it
was pretty much voter sentiment. And when it came to
do we need one of the questions was about change
and how much change do we need in terms of
our politics and our government. And the spectrum went from
(24:23):
the left, and I don't mean left politically, I mean
just over here on the left side. It went from
no change all the way across the spectrum do we
need to literally upend, break things and have dramatic change?
(24:44):
And almost seventy seventy five percent of those hundreds of
thousands of voters that they surveyed wanted radical change. This
conversation on the Glen Back Program yesterday with Charlie Kirk
represents the kind of radical change that this country needs.
Speaker 4 (25:04):
The Senate as we're talking about Mike Lee, I don't
know if you saw this, but Thun just came out
yesterday and said, you know, for his own good Donald
Trump should stay out of this Senate race. And I thought, well, okay,
well you just signed your own death warrant. But you know,
Cornyn and Thune, that is business as usual. If we
(25:28):
don't have somebody who I mean he do you think
he'll put his thumb on the scale and come out
for Scott.
Speaker 3 (25:35):
Let me tell you now, before they get into the
idea of JD Vance, keep in mind the power that
the Senate majority leader has controlling legislation, appointments, all of
those things. And now think about voters and what we've
just witnessed last Tuesday. We witnessed a red wave where
(25:57):
voters of all demographics, all socioeconomic status, people of all
different cultural backgrounds came out and said, in line with
that Fox News analysis of voter sentiment, we need drastic
change in this country. Now, the proof's in the pudding,
as we say in Oklahoma, is that staid old us
(26:20):
Senate going to recognize that the American population, the majority
of the American population, wants radical change in how we
do business. Or are we going back to just eh,
you know, Mark, let's just kind of keep doing business
the way we want to because you know, too much change. Nope,
(26:44):
I'm over that. I'm over it. I want some radical change.
And that's why I think that Beck and Kirk are
onto something here.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
Let me tell you the Charlie Kirk plan, which is
now going public soon or corn is almost assuredly going
to win. John Adams US Senate as Senate majority leader
two hundred years ago as Vice presient United States.
Speaker 3 (27:05):
I would correct that only in this regard he didn't
actually preside a Senate majority leader. He presided as the
President of the Senate, which is his constitutional authority and
right to do so. But he acted as a Senate
majority leader because the actual position a Senate majority leader
didn't really come into effect until I don't hold me
(27:28):
to this date, but I must say like eighteen ninety
five or so eighteen sixty five. It was quite a while.
But acting as the President of the Senate, he acted
in the capacity as the Senate majority leader.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
League gonna win. John Adams presided over US Senate as
Senate majority leader two hundred years ago as Vice President
United States. So I think Van, I think JD. Van
should be President of the Senate and become Senate Majority leader.
Speaker 4 (27:56):
And he would make him in love with that. I
am in love with that. I said that just the
other day. I didn't know if anybody you know, if
if that, you know, it was possible with JD.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
But he would be fantastic.
Speaker 2 (28:10):
End I gotta give credit work. Yeah, go ahead, I'm sorry.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
Does he get does he get the access to the
Senate GOP funds?
Speaker 2 (28:19):
Yeah? So so yeah, let me let me build out
how this would work. So essentially, the Constitution says that
the vice President is the president of the Senate, highest
ranking officer, and when he sits in the chair, that's
the way it is. There is no question about it.
This is again Senator Michaeley came up with this. This is
a one am phone call from Senator Michaelee last night,
and he had he had me at.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
Hello, and he has me at hello every time.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
Yeah, now, mind you. JD would have to really want
it in the sense that it would be a ton
of monotonous he had to sit in the chair and
listen to procedure stuff, and he'd have to go to
the Senate lunches. However, he would basically be able to
be the president of the Senate and set the entire
tone of legislative agenda. Now, as far as the political
stuff that yes and no. I mean, he could create
(29:04):
his own he could do you know, he could. They
could hand him the Senate Leadership Fund. But basically, if
you're the President of Senate, then everyone looks to you,
and then you get to determine who's on committees, which,
of course you know there's a lot of power in that. Now,
mind you, this would this would completely change the game
in Washington. I have not had anybody tell me it's
a bad idea, now, mind you.
Speaker 1 (29:24):
John C.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
Calhoun tried to exhibit his power back, as you know,
in the nineteen fifties as President of the Senate and
was actually shot down. So there has been some trimming
of the power of the President of Senate. However, in
the Senate rules it says the highest ranking officer is
and that's the President of the Senate, which is a VP.
This power has never been exercised, tried, or tested. Considering
(29:47):
the mandate and considering that we only have a Senate
majority thanks to Donald Trump and JD. Vance, it's not
as if like the Senate candidates did better than Trump.
The opposite is truth. Actually Trump did way better, and
they're only there because of cotails of tru you know,
from Shihi to Marino to McCormick. That's your majority right there.
So that's my that's my push. I don't know if
(30:07):
it's going to happen, but I would love to see JD.
Van skink.
Speaker 3 (30:12):
It'd be kind of interesting, wouldn't it. If you want change,
there'd be a good place to start. It's the Weekend
with Michael Brown. Text any question or comment to this
number on your message app three three one zero three.
Just start your message with one of two words Michael
or Mike. Hang tight. I'll be right back happy Saturday
(30:34):
after the election. Glad to have you with you, with you,
Glad to have you with me on the Weekend with
Michael Brown. Don't forget Follow me over on X It's
at Michael Brown Usa. Go give me a follow.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
You know.
Speaker 3 (30:46):
I'm always trying to Uh, It's it's just a stupid
little game I play, But but I do. I do
like the involvement and the engagement because, just like text messages,
the more people that follow me on Twitter on X,
the more I get to see what you post and
what you're talking about, which gives me an idea also
(31:09):
about and your replies to things that I say or
do on the program. But then I look at the numbers,
and since I started doing this program, I have really
built up my following on X and I say thanks
to all of you who have followed me. And I
just passed eighteen thousand, six hundred and so now my
(31:30):
goal is to get to nineteen thousand. So I need
four hundred of you to go follow me on X
at Michael Brown USA real quickly before we get into
the next hour. And many of you have mentioned the
FEMA story, and yes, I'm going to discuss the THEMA story.
Do you think the former FEMA director is going to
ignore the FEMA story?
Speaker 4 (31:49):
Huh?
Speaker 3 (31:49):
Do you know what the FEMA story is? Then you
need stay tuned. Oh my god, it it's outrageous. Let's
go back to the Harris campaign for a moment. We've
talked a lot about the Trump campaign. Let's talk about
the Harris campaign. The number one or two issue that well,
the top three issues were inflation, the economy, and immigration,
(32:13):
and they alternated, you know, depending on who you talk to.
Sometimes the economy, sometimes inflation I'd put them both in
the same category, although they are two entirely different subjects,
and obviously illegal immigration. But in addition to the inflation,
it was caused by all the grotesquely wasteful spending that
the Biden admistration has left us with more than thirty
(32:35):
six trillion dollars in debt. Go write that number out,
thirty six trillion, and then if you spent I haven't
done they calculations. You go do this yourself. Thirty six
trillion divided by let's just say a million dollars a minute.
A million dollars a minute. How long would it take
(32:56):
you to pay off your debt? You have a thirty
six trillion dollar credit card and you want to pay
more than the minimum amount, So you're going to pay
a million dollars a minute. How long will it take
you to pay off thirty six trillion dollars in debt? Now,
(33:16):
imagine how bad that thirty six trillion dollars would be
if the cabal had been able to install Kamala Harris
and the presidency, just like they installed her as the nominee. Well,
here's a clue. The Harris campaign fell twenty million dollars
in debt during the final weeks of her campaign, according
(33:39):
to several sources. The California bureau chief for Politico wrote
in a post on x that Harris's campaign had ended
with at least twenty million dollars in debt, according to
two sources familiar with the situation, Now it turns out
that Harris's catastrophic campaign wasn't all the fault of Joe
Biden all. Now, speaking of Biden, maybe he could, you know,
(34:05):
unilatterly cancel her debt, just like he's done with college
loans and defines of the Supreme Court. But more likely
than not, Joe Biden and doctor Joe Abiden are probably
snickering over this. Here's what they're snickering about, Kamala again.
(34:26):
This is Christopher Cautalago, the California bureau chief for Politico.
He writes, Harris raised more than one billion dollars and
had in the bank. As of October sixteen, she had
one hundred and eighteen million dollars in the bank. Now,
(34:48):
apparently that one hundred and eighteen million dollars as she
had as of October six sixteen, is not going to
be enough money to cover the checks that she has
written to finance all the showy concerts with all those
knit with celebrities whose political exportations voters have learned to ignore.
Do you vote for anybody based on a celebrity? I
(35:08):
hope you don't. So obviously we were not wise to
trust Kamala Harris with our tax dollars. He goes on
to say that a Harris campaign staffer also informed bright
Bart News that several people who had worked on Harris's
presidential campaign were still awaiting several overdue payments that they
(35:34):
were promised for their work. This is so typical of
Democrats spend other people's money as if you're a drunken sailor,
and all due respect to drunken sailors, good grief. You
raise over one hundred you raise over a billion dollars.
(35:56):
You've got one hundred and eighteen million dollars in the
bank on October sixteen. Let me see if I can
count that. So that's fifteen five, that's twenty days before
the end of the election. You have one hundred and
eighteen million dollars in the bank, and you still end
up twenty million dollars in debt. What were you spending
(36:16):
the money? On you know, I told my audience earlier
in the week that Kamala Harris could use the money
left over from her campaign to help fund other candidates,
you know, to kind of help build her power base.
She has no power base. Why she has no money,
She's in debt, typical Democrat. Good grief, it's the weekend

your messy jat the numbers three three wednesaero three. Just

the text line three three one zero three send me
text anytime. Kind of a pulperia of things for this hour,
(01:37):
but I want to start with something that occurred on
Glenn Beck's program yesterday. So this is courtesy of the
Glenn Back program. But one of the things that I
had posted about on X was one of the things
that Republicans have got to learn.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Now.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Democrats have got to learn some things too, but let's
talk about Republicans first. Republicans have got to learn to govern,
and Republicans as much as Democrats do, Republicans need to
sit back, shut up, and sit down for a moment.
And the reason I say that with such is because
(02:21):
we have another election going on, and it's election, an
election to it's a vote to elect the Senate Majority leader,
who is currently Chuck Schumer, the senior Senator from New York.
So we need to elect something. And Mitch McConnell, who
(02:42):
I think is going to retire at the end of
his term, has already announced that he is going to
step down as if the Senate goes Republican, which it has,
that he will not seek to be majority leader anymore. Now.
I have kind of a love hate relationship with the
Mitch McConnell because he flip flops all the time. Some
(03:06):
days he supports Trump, some days he doesn't, But he
is a master when it comes to picking good people
to run that are electable. Now, I may not agree
with the people that he elect that he chooses, but
the Senate Majority leader controls something called the Senate Majority Fund.
(03:30):
It's the Senate it's the Senate Campaign Fund, and they
use that. I mean, there's hundreds of billions of dollars
in this campaign fund and they use it. All senators
contribute to it. They raise all of this money and
(03:52):
that money is used to elect Republican senators across the
country to keep a majority. And Mitch mc connell was
good at that. Didn't always like the people he chose,
but they tend to get elected. The three people that
have announced that they want to be the new Senate
(04:13):
majority leader when Republicans take over in January. John Cornyn
of Texas, John Thune of oh I forget South Dakasa.
I forget now no North and South Dakota, one of
the Dakotas. And Rick Scott of Florida.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Now come on.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
With all due respect to my friends that listen to
the program in Texas, you know that John Cornyn is
a piece of you know what. He is the biggest
non conservative conservative in the US Senate. He's a horrible senator,
(04:58):
but he's been there forever. I don't know why you
guys keep electing him. I just don't get it. It's
like you are you trying to make up for electing
a really conservative like Ted Cruz, so you feel guilty,
So let's elect you know, a Republican a name only
like John Cornyn. He's not a conservative, he's a swamp rat.
(05:21):
So no, no, no, John Cornyn, mark him off the list.
John Thune is only slightly better. I mean, if he
came down to John Cornan and John Thune, I'd say, okay,
John Thune. But there's a third alternative, Rick Scott. Now,
(05:43):
Rick Scott hasn't always been a what I would call
a die hard conservative, but I think he's learned, and
of all the three, that would be my choice. So
the very first decision that the new Republican majority is
(06:06):
going to have to make is who are we going
to elect to be our leader in the Senate. Now
why is this important? It's incredibly important because the Senate
majority leader sets the agenda. The Senate majority leader has
the ultimate power to decide which piece of legislation actually
(06:30):
gets a vote. So let's say that there's a bill to, oh,
I don't know, a boliy income tax. Let's let's just go.
Let's let's let's have a wet dream here that there's
a bill to a bolihe income tax the Senate majority
and let's say it passes the House, it goes to
(06:51):
the Senate. Well, the Senate majority leader can kill the
bill by assigning it to a committee and tell that
committee chair, don't you ever hold a hearing. Or he
can just keep the bill on his desk figuratively speaking,
and never even assign it to a committee. He can
kill the legislation. Or let's say that he goes, okay,
(07:14):
go have a you know, go have a hearing. Go
do all that stuff and it gets voted out a committee,
but he never brings it up for a vote on
the Senate floor. The Senate majority leader also has the
appointment power. Who am I going to select to be
the chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee? Who am I
(07:37):
going to select to be the chairman of the Senate
Judiciary Committee? You know that might get to oversee some
Can you amend it if you want to drive your
Democrat friends apoplectic, if you want to see him have
a brain aneurysm. Let them think about the possibility of
Trump during the next four years getting to appoint some
new Supreme Court justices. Now, I don't think Clarence Thomas
(07:59):
is going to retire, but let's say that Clarence Thomas
or Samuel Aldo decide to retire. Well, Trump, now with
the Senate majority of Republicans, could appoint younger conservative constitutionalists
to replace those two. Or let's take Sonya Soda Mayor,
(08:23):
the longest serving Liberal justice. She's seventy two years old
or something. She has Type one diabetes. She gives no
indication of retiring anytime soon. I don't know why she would,
but let's say for whatever reason, Let's say that she
has some health issue and she decides that she'd you know,
(08:44):
I need to retire. Oh, now Trump gets to replace her. Well,
the US Senate controlled by Republicans, I hope would and
a Senate Majority leader would push through a constitutionalist and originalist,
someone who would look at the Constitution and say, oh, look,
(09:07):
it says the right of the people to keeping bare
arms shall not be infringed. And it says shall not
be infringed. That's what it means. There is the possibility
of some amazing things in the next just four years,
and I'm not even talking about perhaps the next twelve
(09:27):
years or longer. So the election of the Senate Majority
leader is incredibly important. But what if none of those
people became the Senate Majority leader? What if it was
somebody else? Wait till you hear what someone has suggested.
(09:50):
So the Weekend with Michael Brown, stay tuned. That's next. Hey,
welcome back to the Weekend with my Brow. I'm glad
to have you with me. I appreciate you tuning in.
So we're talking about the awesome power of the Senate
Majority leader, because that's the next big shoot to drop
in terms of this new era. Of conservative what I
(10:14):
hope to be conservative governance for at least the next
four years. And of course, with the Democrats in as
much disarray as they are right now, absolutely refusing to
understand why they lost. Oh my gosh, we may do
that the next hour. I really think it's worth thinking
(10:35):
about and understanding why I believe they lost. But right
now we're talking about the Senate majority leader. So the
three names have been tossed in the hat, and I
don't think that there's much of the unanimous agreement that
any one of these three would be a great Senate
Majority leader. Now, think about what I told you in
(10:57):
that last segment about how much power the Senate Majority
leader has. Think it just about Supreme Court justices.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
You know.
Speaker 3 (11:06):
One of the things that happens when a Supreme Court
vacancy occurs, or you know what, well, wait, it usually happens,
is this, a justice will uh ask for a meeting
with the President and say, uh, mister President, I'm thinking
about retiring and I wanted to give you a heads
up so that you have time to start thinking about
(11:29):
my replacement. And then they, you know, they go back
to their chambers and do their work. But the White
House goes into full operational mode. Let's let's start scouring
now they may already have. In fact, this is one
of the things that probably Susie Wiley, the Chief of Staff,
will do. Let's start compiling a list of names. Let's
(11:50):
go to the Federalist Society. Let's let's start looking at
some of the Appellate Court, just just judges, and let's
start compiling a potential list of names for any Supreme
Court justices that we might have an opportunity to a
point so that when that meeting occurs between a retiring justice,
but even before it's announced, they can at least start
(12:13):
vetting a few people to whittle it down to three,
four or five names. Well, they'll let the Senate Majority
leader know that this is going to come up, and
the Majority leader can either fast track that slow walkeet
as they did with one of Obama's you know, Merrick Garland,
(12:34):
the current Attorney General, almost became a US Supreme Court
justice because in Barack Obama's lane term he nominated Merrick Garland.
But Mitch McConnell refused to bring it to a vote
because he knew that come January he was going to
(12:57):
have a Republican majority, So he just sat on that nomination,
didn't do anything. That's how powerful they are. So whoever
that next majority leader is, I wanted to be someone
that is going to carry forward the agenda of Donald
(13:17):
Trump and JD. Evans. Do you know who the president
of the Senate is? Do you? The United States Constitution
says that the Vice President of the United States shall
serve as the President of the Senate and preside over
(13:39):
the Senate when necessary, and will break ties in the
Senate when necessary.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Oh huh?
Speaker 3 (13:52):
Do you know who the first vice president of the
United States was? Who was Washington's Vice President, John Adams.
John Adams was the first president of the United States Senate.
Do you know that John Adams presided over the US
(14:13):
Senate as the Senate majority leader two hundred years ago? Yes,
the Constitution says he's the president of the Senate. Just
as let me draw a little bit of a parallel
for you. Everybody thinks that the speaker of the House
(14:34):
of Representatives has to be a member of the United
States Congress.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
It does not.
Speaker 3 (14:40):
Anybody hell's bells. If they went crazy enough, they could
nominate me enough. It not that I would get enough votes.
But they if they thought they had the votes, if
they thought they had two hundred and eighteen votes to
confirm me as the Speaker of the House, they could
do that. It doesn't have to be a member of Congress.
(15:01):
He can be anybody. The House gets to decide who
their speaker is. Well, the Senate doesn't get to decide
who their president is. That's set by the Constitution, and
the President of the Senate, the equivalent of the Speaker
of the House, is the Vice President of the United States. Hmmm,
(15:26):
what if the Senators decided to vote to make jd
Vance their Senate majority leader. This little conversation occurred on
the Glenn Beck Show yesterday.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
Take a listen the Senate as we're talking about Mike Lee.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
Uh, he's talking Mike Lee.
Speaker 4 (15:51):
I don't know if you saw this, but Thoon just
came out yesterday and said, you know, for his own
good Donald Trump should stay out of this Senate race.
And I thought, well, okay, well, you just signed your
own death warrant. But uh, you know, Cornyn and Thun,
that is business as usual.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
If we don't have.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
I totally agree, you know, Beck and I may have
our disagreements but I totally agree with him on this one.
Thuon and Cornyn are just bad. That's just a bad idea.
Rick Scott, Okay, I can live with skip Rick Scott.
Speaker 4 (16:26):
But hang tight, somebody who I mean, he's do you
think he'll put his thumb on the scale and come out.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
For Rick Scott.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Let me tell you, Let me tell you the Charlie
Kirk plan, which is now going public soon, or Cornyn
is almost assuredly going to win. John Adams presided over
the US Senate as Senate majority leader two hundred years
ago as Vice President United States. So I think Jadi Van,
I think jad Van should be president of the Senate
and become Senate maatority leader.
Speaker 4 (16:52):
And he would make him in love with that. I
am in love with that. I said that just the
other day. I didn't know if anybody you know, if
if that, you know, it was possible with JD.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
But he would be fantastic.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
Again, I gotta give credit. Yeah, go ahead, I'm sorry.
Speaker 4 (17:09):
Does he get does he get the access to the
Senate GOP funds?
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Yes? So so yeah, let me let me build out
how this would work. So essentially, the Constitution says that
the Vice President is the President of the Senate, highest
ranking officer, and when he sits in the chair that
that's the way it is. There is no question about it.
This is again Senator Mike Lee came up with. This
is a one am phone call from Senator Michaeley last
night and he had he had me at Hello and.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Think about that.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
Now, stay tuned. They're not quite done. Charlie Kirk Glenn
Beck discussing the idea of jd Vance, who will be
the President of the Senate, also getting elected as Senate
Majority leader. Wow, you know, let me tell you about
a Fox voter analysis. I'll be right back.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Tonight.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
Michael Brown joins me here.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
The former FEMA director of talk show host Michael Brown.
Speaker 4 (18:08):
Brownie, No, Brownie, You're doing a heck of a job
the Weekend with Michael Brown.
Speaker 3 (18:13):
Hey, welcome back to the Weekend with Michael Brown. Glad
to have you with me. So we're talking about this
idea that was been floated by Mike Lee as for JD.
Vance to serve as the Senate majority leader. There the
vice President, according to the Constitution, is the president of
(18:33):
the Senate, so he can provide, he can preside over
proceedings of the Senate, and John Adams did that. John Adams,
of course, there was a different time. John Adams presided
over the US Senate, you know, newly formed country. First
vice president constitution says, I'm the President of the Senate.
(18:56):
I'll go bang the gavel and all I'll shuffle legislation through.
There was not such a thing as Senate Majority leader
during John Adams's term. But there is nothing that prevents
the President of the Senate serving as Senate Majority leader.
(19:23):
He can preside over the Senate. He can be the
Senate majority leader. And the idea is instead of electing
one of these existing senators now jd. Vance obviously isn't
is a Senator from Ohio. But once he's sworn in
on January twenty, twenty twenty five, he will vacate the
(19:45):
office as the junior Senator from Ohio and become the
Vice President of the United States and the president of
the US Senate. Somebody asking on the text line what
happens to his seat? That will get appointed by the
the governor, and obviously the governor will point a Republican
so they'll still maintain their majority. But this idea of
(20:09):
jd Vance serving as Majority Leader, would ensure that President
Trump's agenda gets a fair hearing in the US Senate. Because, again,
with all due respect to my friends in South Dakota,
Texas and for the matter Florida, who would you trust
(20:33):
more to see that bills that the president, once heard
by the Senate to actually be heard. Would you trust
John Cornyn to do that? I wouldn't. I wouldn't trust
John thun to do it, and I would slightly trust
Rick Scott to do it. Rick Scott has seen the light.
(20:56):
I can't say the same thing for John Thune and Cornyon. Plus,
here's the other thing. Here's the other thing man, as
Biden would say, here's the deal man. Jd Vance as
Vice President's got a lot of cachet that the other
three don't. Jd Vance as a newly elected US Senator
(21:22):
doesn't come with all the baggage that these guys that
have been there for you know, eighteen twenty four, thirty
some years. He doesn't have that baggage either. And jd
Vance's loyalty is to Donald Trump, not to special interests,
(21:42):
not to anybody that's trying to prevent or push legislation
through it would be a revolutionary idea and it would
show that the old way of just letting the establish
run everything, if those days are gone. You know, there
(22:05):
is worldwide and I think that Trump's the tip of
the spear of it. I've said before on this program
and on my weekday program that I believe that the
world has been kind of inching toward tyranny worldwide, Communism, fascism,
Marxism is getting its hold in places, even in places
(22:29):
like Germany, in France. Look at what happened in the Netherlands.
Did you see the literal anti Semitic attack against Jews
that had traveled from Israel to the Netherlands to watch
a soccer game, and when the soccer game was over,
there was a coordinated terrorist attack against Jews. And of
(22:54):
all places, Amsterdam, the home of Anne Frank. Seriously, the
United States, with the election of Donald Trump, has said stop,
We're not going to allow this kind of anti Semitism,
(23:15):
this kind of tyranny, this kind of Marxism and fascism
to get a toe hold. We're going to stop this. Well,
it's really no longer even conservative versus liberal, it's not
even Republican versus Democrat anymore. I think it's freedom and
(23:36):
liberty versus tyranny. I think that's where we are in
the history of the world, and that if you go
back to election night, Fox News had sat on this
information for and understand why they had been doing a
survey of hundreds of thousands of individuals to get a
(24:02):
voter profile. I forget what they called it, but it
was pretty much voter sentiment. And when it came to
do we need one of the questions was about change
and how much change do we need in terms of
our politics and our government. And the spectrum went from
(24:23):
the left, and I don't mean left politically, I mean
just over here on the left side. It went from
no change all the way across the spectrum do we
need to literally upend, break things and have dramatic change?
(24:44):
And almost seventy seventy five percent of those hundreds of
thousands of voters that they surveyed wanted radical change. This
conversation on the Glen Back Program yesterday with Charlie Kirk
represents the kind of radical change that this country needs.
Speaker 4 (25:04):
The Senate as we're talking about Mike Lee, I don't
know if you saw this, but Thun just came out
yesterday and said, you know, for his own good Donald
Trump should stay out of this Senate race. And I thought, well, okay,
well you just signed your own death warrant. But you know,
Cornyn and Thune, that is business as usual. If we
(25:28):
don't have somebody who I mean he do you think
he'll put his thumb on the scale and come out
for Scott.
Speaker 3 (25:35):
Let me tell you now, before they get into the
idea of JD Vance, keep in mind the power that
the Senate majority leader has controlling legislation, appointments, all of
those things. And now think about voters and what we've
just witnessed last Tuesday. We witnessed a red wave where
(25:57):
voters of all demographics, all socioeconomic status, people of all
different cultural backgrounds came out and said, in line with
that Fox News analysis of voter sentiment, we need drastic
change in this country. Now, the proof's in the pudding,
as we say in Oklahoma, is that staid old us
(26:20):
Senate going to recognize that the American population, the majority
of the American population, wants radical change in how we
do business. Or are we going back to just eh,
you know, Mark, let's just kind of keep doing business
the way we want to because you know, too much change. Nope,
(26:44):
I'm over that. I'm over it. I want some radical change.
And that's why I think that Beck and Kirk are
onto something here.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
Let me tell you the Charlie Kirk plan, which is
now going public soon or corn is almost assuredly going
to win. John Adams US Senate as Senate majority leader
two hundred years ago as Vice presient United States.
Speaker 3 (27:05):
I would correct that only in this regard he didn't
actually preside a Senate majority leader. He presided as the
President of the Senate, which is his constitutional authority and
right to do so. But he acted as a Senate
majority leader because the actual position a Senate majority leader
didn't really come into effect until I don't hold me
(27:28):
to this date, but I must say like eighteen ninety
five or so eighteen sixty five. It was quite a while.
But acting as the President of the Senate, he acted
in the capacity as the Senate majority leader.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
League gonna win. John Adams presided over US Senate as
Senate majority leader two hundred years ago as Vice President
United States. So I think Van, I think JD. Van
should be President of the Senate and become Senate Majority leader.
Speaker 4 (27:56):
And he would make him in love with that. I
am in love with that. I said that just the
other day. I didn't know if anybody you know, if
if that, you know, it was possible with JD.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
But he would be fantastic.
Speaker 2 (28:10):
End I gotta give credit work. Yeah, go ahead, I'm sorry.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
Does he get does he get the access to the
Senate GOP funds?
Speaker 2 (28:19):
Yeah? So so yeah, let me let me build out
how this would work. So essentially, the Constitution says that
the vice President is the president of the Senate, highest
ranking officer, and when he sits in the chair, that's
the way it is. There is no question about it.
This is again Senator Michaeley came up with this. This is
a one am phone call from Senator Michaelee last night,
and he had he had me at.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
Hello, and he has me at hello every time.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
Yeah, now, mind you. JD would have to really want
it in the sense that it would be a ton
of monotonous he had to sit in the chair and
listen to procedure stuff, and he'd have to go to
the Senate lunches. However, he would basically be able to
be the president of the Senate and set the entire
tone of legislative agenda. Now, as far as the political
stuff that yes and no. I mean, he could create
(29:04):
his own he could do you know, he could. They
could hand him the Senate Leadership Fund. But basically, if
you're the President of Senate, then everyone looks to you,
and then you get to determine who's on committees, which,
of course you know there's a lot of power in that. Now,
mind you, this would this would completely change the game
in Washington. I have not had anybody tell me it's
a bad idea, now, mind you.
Speaker 1 (29:24):
John C.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
Calhoun tried to exhibit his power back, as you know,
in the nineteen fifties as President of the Senate and
was actually shot down. So there has been some trimming
of the power of the President of Senate. However, in
the Senate rules it says the highest ranking officer is
and that's the President of the Senate, which is a VP.
This power has never been exercised, tried, or tested. Considering
(29:47):
the mandate and considering that we only have a Senate
majority thanks to Donald Trump and JD. Vance, it's not
as if like the Senate candidates did better than Trump.
The opposite is truth. Actually Trump did way better, and
they're only there because of cotails of tru you know,
from Shihi to Marino to McCormick. That's your majority right there.
So that's my that's my push. I don't know if
(30:07):
it's going to happen, but I would love to see JD.
Van skink.
Speaker 3 (30:12):
It'd be kind of interesting, wouldn't it. If you want change,
there'd be a good place to start. It's the Weekend
with Michael Brown. Text any question or comment to this
number on your message app three three one zero three.
Just start your message with one of two words Michael
or Mike. Hang tight. I'll be right back happy Saturday
(30:34):
after the election. Glad to have you with you, with you,
Glad to have you with me on the Weekend with
Michael Brown. Don't forget Follow me over on X It's
at Michael Brown Usa. Go give me a follow.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
You know.
Speaker 3 (30:46):
I'm always trying to Uh, It's it's just a stupid
little game I play, But but I do. I do
like the involvement and the engagement because, just like text messages,
the more people that follow me on Twitter on X,
the more I get to see what you post and
what you're talking about, which gives me an idea also
(31:09):
about and your replies to things that I say or
do on the program. But then I look at the numbers,
and since I started doing this program, I have really
built up my following on X and I say thanks
to all of you who have followed me. And I
just passed eighteen thousand, six hundred and so now my
(31:30):
goal is to get to nineteen thousand. So I need
four hundred of you to go follow me on X
at Michael Brown USA real quickly before we get into
the next hour. And many of you have mentioned the
FEMA story, and yes, I'm going to discuss the THEMA story.
Do you think the former FEMA director is going to
ignore the FEMA story?
Speaker 4 (31:49):
Huh?
Speaker 3 (31:49):
Do you know what the FEMA story is? Then you
need stay tuned. Oh my god, it it's outrageous. Let's
go back to the Harris campaign for a moment. We've
talked a lot about the Trump campaign. Let's talk about
the Harris campaign. The number one or two issue that well,
the top three issues were inflation, the economy, and immigration,
(32:13):
and they alternated, you know, depending on who you talk to.
Sometimes the economy, sometimes inflation I'd put them both in
the same category, although they are two entirely different subjects,
and obviously illegal immigration. But in addition to the inflation,
it was caused by all the grotesquely wasteful spending that
the Biden admistration has left us with more than thirty
(32:35):
six trillion dollars in debt. Go write that number out,
thirty six trillion, and then if you spent I haven't
done they calculations. You go do this yourself. Thirty six
trillion divided by let's just say a million dollars a minute.
A million dollars a minute. How long would it take
(32:56):
you to pay off your debt? You have a thirty
six trillion dollar credit card and you want to pay
more than the minimum amount, So you're going to pay
a million dollars a minute. How long will it take
you to pay off thirty six trillion dollars in debt? Now,
(33:16):
imagine how bad that thirty six trillion dollars would be
if the cabal had been able to install Kamala Harris
and the presidency, just like they installed her as the nominee. Well,
here's a clue. The Harris campaign fell twenty million dollars
in debt during the final weeks of her campaign, according
(33:39):
to several sources. The California bureau chief for Politico wrote
in a post on x that Harris's campaign had ended
with at least twenty million dollars in debt, according to
two sources familiar with the situation, Now it turns out
that Harris's catastrophic campaign wasn't all the fault of Joe
Biden all. Now, speaking of Biden, maybe he could, you know,
(34:05):
unilatterly cancel her debt, just like he's done with college
loans and defines of the Supreme Court. But more likely
than not, Joe Biden and doctor Joe Abiden are probably
snickering over this. Here's what they're snickering about, Kamala again.
(34:26):
This is Christopher Cautalago, the California bureau chief for Politico.
He writes, Harris raised more than one billion dollars and
had in the bank. As of October sixteen, she had
one hundred and eighteen million dollars in the bank. Now,
(34:48):
apparently that one hundred and eighteen million dollars as she
had as of October six sixteen, is not going to
be enough money to cover the checks that she has
written to finance all the showy concerts with all those
knit with celebrities whose political exportations voters have learned to ignore.
Do you vote for anybody based on a celebrity? I
(35:08):
hope you don't. So obviously we were not wise to
trust Kamala Harris with our tax dollars. He goes on
to say that a Harris campaign staffer also informed bright
Bart News that several people who had worked on Harris's
presidential campaign were still awaiting several overdue payments that they
(35:34):
were promised for their work. This is so typical of
Democrats spend other people's money as if you're a drunken sailor,
and all due respect to drunken sailors, good grief. You
raise over one hundred you raise over a billion dollars.
(35:56):
You've got one hundred and eighteen million dollars in the
bank on October sixteen. Let me see if I can
count that. So that's fifteen five, that's twenty days before
the end of the election. You have one hundred and
eighteen million dollars in the bank, and you still end
up twenty million dollars in debt. What were you spending
(36:16):
the money? On you know, I told my audience earlier
in the week that Kamala Harris could use the money
left over from her campaign to help fund other candidates,
you know, to kind of help build her power base.
She has no power base. Why she has no money,
She's in debt, typical Democrat. Good grief, it's the weekend
(36:41):
with Michael Brown. Tell me anything, Ask me anything on
your messy jat the numbers three three wednesaero three. Just
start the message with the word Mike or Michael. I'll
be right back
