Donald Trump is having a major panic on Wednesday morning as
Democratic governors are standing up to him.
Democrats in the House and Senate are united, standing up
to him, and he's not able to bully them like he thought he
would. So he's lashing out.
Here's what Donald Trump is posting this morning.
Chicago mayor should be in jail for failing to protect ICE
(00:23):
officers. Exclamation point.
Governor Pritzker also. Yeah, that's pretty normal.
The president of the United States calling for the arrest of
the mayor of Chicago and the governor of Illinois.
How desperate and how pathetic. Governor Pritzker responds right
away. I will not back down.
Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected
(00:46):
representatives checking his power.
What else is left on the path tofull blown authoritarianism?
Meanwhile, in Portland, OR, they're just mocking Donald
Trump and Kristi Noem. Let me show you what went down
last night as more mascot animals came out to the dance
party, which Donald Trump is calling War Ravage.
(01:09):
This is how you mock an authoritarian.
Here, play this clip. Earlier this morning, we heard
from Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson on CNN.
His response to Donald Trump's threat.
Well, this would not be the first time that Donald Trump has
(01:30):
called for arresting a black manunjustly.
That's what Donald Trump does. He's always been a racist.
He's always been a criminal. He's always been a sexual
abuser. He's always been a felon.
Here, play this clip of Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson standing
up to Donald Trump. Let's play it.
First of all, this president is unstable, unhinged, a double
(01:53):
minded individual that quite frankly is a threat to our
democracy. And it's certainly not the first
time that Donald Trump has called for the arresting of a
black man unjustly. I'm not going anywhere.
I'm going to stay firm as the mayor of this amazing city,
which was voted nine years in a row the best big city in
(02:15):
America, and we're going to defend all of Chicago.
Yeah, and to be clear, he's. Also calling for the governor,
JB Pritzker to be jailed as well.
Now, there's total disarray amongst MAGA Republicans in the
Senate and the House, quote, I think they are absolutely
struggling to figure out how they are going to get out of
(02:35):
this disastrous shutdown that Donald Trump and the MAGA
Republicans are causing to the American people right now.
The Politico. And when Politico writes this,
you know, oh that things are badfor Republicans because they
often write very favorable stories to MAGA.
Trump's off script comments cause shutdown headaches for
(02:58):
GOP. Yep, they're getting absolutely
outmaneuvered by Democrats, but also it's because Democrats are
harnessing the power of, get this, the truth.
This is a Trump government shutdown.
This is a Magamite government shutdown.
They wanted to shut this down. They thought they were going to
bully the Democrats and RIP awayAmerican people's healthcare.
(03:19):
But the Democrats and Americans say do not take away our
healthcare. This is life or death.
So Magamite came out with new talking points this morning.
They went from, you know what, blame immigrants and migrants
and saying that this was a transgender issue in Peru or
whatever the hell they were saying there.
(03:39):
Then they just went with trying to bully and threaten and then
they claimed they were negotiating with Democrats,
which was a total lie. There was no conversations at
all. Then Trump said this is about
healthcare, but it isn't about healthcare.
Then they said they've got a better healthcare plan, but they
don't tell you what their plan is because they just want to RIP
away your healthcare. Didn't Donald Trump say he was
going to roll out one in two weeks during his first
(04:00):
administration? Nope, they don't have a plan.
Trump post AI images of a super spaceship alien technology that
cures all cancers and cures all illnesses.
So they went and did they? They post about Med beds, Q Anon
conspiracies. Well, now this morning MAGA Mike
Johnson, he's got a new talking point for you.
Are you ready? If you're a young pregnant
(04:22):
American citizen who shows up atthe ER, you are getting worst
treatment or the doctors are being reimbursed less than
rabble rousers. Rabble rousers from South
America are getting their doctors reimbursed more than
(04:43):
young pregnant women. This is you're talking about.
It's not true, it's xenophobic. Young pregnant women having
their doctors get reimbursed more money than rabble rousers
from South America. What are they talking about?
They're just like racist, xenophobic, big bigoted people.
What are you talking about? Just give American people their
(05:03):
damn health care, keep the Affordable Care Act subsidies
and reopen the government. Donald Trump and MAGA Mike, your
play this clip. If you're a young, pregnant
American citizen woman who showsup in an ER and you get treated
and they pay the hospital less for treating you than some
illegal rabble rouser who came in from some, you know, South
American country to do us harm, that is wrong.
(05:24):
The Republican Party stands for common sense in the big
beautiful bill. We fix that.
And Chuck Schumer wants to unwind it.
And it is unconscionable to me that he's inflicting all this
pain on American citizens so they can play games and try to
appease the radical left base. That's what this is.
And. You know, they get desperate
also when you know what they gotto always go to right when they
get super desperate. Obama, Biden now, now it's
(05:49):
Obama. Biden and Chuck Schumer are the
real threats to democracy right now.
And all these MAGA Republicans, their new one right is we were
all being surveilled on around January 6th.
The FBI, Trump's FBI surveilled,called on us, but it's Obama and
Schumer and Biden. It's just pathetic.
(06:12):
This guy, Senator Haggerty, I moved into Trump Tower.
You moved into Trump Tower. What a loser.
You're playing this clip. To the bottom of this goes all
the way back to Obama as well, Dana, if you think about it, I
was a private citizen then. I was Trump's one of Trump's
finance chairman. I moved into Trump Tower the day
after the election in 2016. When you think about this, the
FBI came up and surveilled us then under the false Russia hoax
(06:34):
pretext. Now we find out that they were
surveilling us in 2023 with JackSmith.
I think the American people, we can see right through this, the
real threat to democracy are Chuck Schumer and the Democrats.
They're projecting this. They're having this March and
they're going to keep the government shut down at a cost
of $400 million a day. We're already at 3.2 billion and
counting just so Chuck Schumer can create this theater.
It's a farce and we've got to stop all of it.
(06:55):
Let. Me know.
If I do, you struggle with bloating and discomfort after
your morning coffee. After drinking Everyday Dose
consistently, my bloating has reduced and my face is less
puffy. Everyday Dose offers coffee that
does more. Coffee Plus features 100%
Arabica Coffee Enhanced with functional ingredients for
smooth energy, calm focus, gut health and skin support.
(07:19):
No crash, no jitters. The all in one coffee that makes
you feel as good as it tastes. Coffee Plus is available in two
varieties. Mild Roast, which is smooth and
light bodied with 45 milligrams of caffeine.
Medium Roast, which is rich and full bodied with 90 milligrams
of caffeine. Both feature 100% Arabica Coffee
(07:42):
Enhanced with functional ingredients for a smoother, more
focused energy boost. Ingredients undergo third party
testing to ensure purity and potency free from mold rich in
active compounds. Exciting news.

That's visit everydaydose.com/MTBOGO for more details.
(08:25):
You know, Speaking of losers, then you have Eric Trump.
He was on with Cuomo and he was on News Nation and he, and this
is what he goes to. They always kind of go and play
the victim. He was like, that's why they
tried to kill my father. They're trying to kill me.
They're kidding. They're they are taking us off
(08:45):
of Facebook. They took us off of Instagram.
They took us off of all of thesethings.
It's like, dude, what are you talking about?
The, the, the, the shooter in Butler, PA, His family was a
Trumper supporter. The kid was like a Republican
guy. He was not like a who's the
they, who's the, they there? The in Charlie Kirk, the guy,
the the guy from the Mormon family that was a Republican,
(09:09):
you know, the Republican Magga family gun touting Trump family.
What, what, what, what are you all talking about?
But this they're spiraling this morning.
I mean, watch this guy just spiral here, play this clip.
It's off. Of Twitter, they took us off of
Facebook, they took us off of Instagram.
I I91 indictments, right? I mean, how many gag orders were
(09:29):
there in that period of time? And then after all of that was
done, they tried to kill him. They tried to kill him in
Butler, PA, and then they tried to kill him again at a golf
course. And then you saw exactly what
happened with Charlie Kirk last week, where I lost a good
friend, somebody I'd been on that stage with 100 times.
They put our family, they put myfather, they put me under siege.
They put this nation under siegewith with their garbage.
(09:50):
You know, and then you had Republican Senator from
Kentucky, Rand Paul reflecting on Donald Trump's statements
about how he keeps on shooting and killing people on fishing
boats off the coast of Venezuela.
This is what Senator Rand Paul has to say here.
Play this. I think blowing up speed boats
in the Caribbean, though, isn't necessarily the answer.
(10:13):
About 25% of the time that the Coast Guard boards a vessel in
the Caribbean looking for drugs,About 25% of the time the boat
that's boarded doesn't have drugs.
So we've blown up four boats. Statistically speaking, what are
the odds that one of the boats didn't have drugs?
We haven't heard the names of who these drug dealers are.
How do you know for certain who they are before you kill them?
(10:35):
So I'm not in favor of the current policy.
I'm in favor of the continued policy on interdiction of drugs,
which is that we do search ships, but that there's a
methodical way about doing this and not just dropping bombs on
everyone. Let's go 1st.
And that was in response to Donald Trump yesterday with
Prime Minister Carney. What a disastrous press
conference in the Oval. Remember when Donald Trump said
(10:57):
this year? Play this clip a lot of they.
We call them the water drugs, the drugs that come in through
water. They're not coming there.
No boats anymore. They're frankly, there are no
fishing boats. There's no boats out there
period. If you want to know the truth,
we say does anybody go fishing anymore?
The fact is we knocked out probably saved at least 100,000
lives, American lives, Canadian lives by taking out all those
(11:21):
boats coming in so. It's let.
Me just get you some economic news as well.
Restaurant and bar spending growth turned negative in
September according to Chase card spending data.
So we have to rely on all this private data because Donald
Trump is no longer allowing the Bureau of Labor Statistics to
(11:41):
report actual economic data and saying, oh, there's a shutdown,
so we can't report that data. Their goal all along was not to
report accurate Bureau of Labor Statistics data.
So we just don't get data from the government anymore.
Allah, authoritarian regimes other than their other than like
the fake data they put out. Also, didn't they tell us we
were going to get the tariff rebate checks, DOGE dividend
(12:04):
checks? Didn't Donald Trump claim he
brought in $17 trillion that sits on a tariff shelf?
So why don't you help people out?
Oh, by the way, remember when wewarned you about Donald Trump's
taxon tips gimmick, which I saidall along is a gimmick?
It's at the end of the day, it'scapped.
It's a deduction. Most tipped workers to cash
anyway. And now you're getting less
(12:25):
cash. So you're getting no tax on no
tips because you're not getting tips.
You know, I mean, the business is down for a lot of these
service industries, like 50% in areas that this was like a
winning argument and it's reallynot going to impact you at all.
And it expires in the next, what, 18 months or so.
But the tax cuts for the billionaires, those are forever,
(12:48):
always helping the billionaires while ripping away your
healthcare, while destroying your lives, while making things
less affordable for you. We've been reporting on this all
day. Wall Street Journal also writes
America's soybean farmers are panicking over the loss of
Chinese buyers. China hasn't booked any US
soybean purchases from months. Farmers warn of a bloodbath.
(13:10):
Yeah, that's what do you expect.This is what Trump does.
This is what this is what he does.
And by the way, the market, the stock market, it's basically
being propped up by a handful ofoligarchical corporations that
are close to Donald Trump that are basically doing deals with
each other when it comes to likechips.
(13:31):
And they're taking stakes in each other's companies.
And it's like a very circular funnel of the same businesses
making announcements to pump up the market.
If you actually look at some of these deals.
And when it comes to semiconductors, AI, what's going
on right now, they have like a new announcement every week.
But it's kind of the same tranche of money, if you will,
(13:54):
but it's causing the stock priceto rise.
Anyway, let me leave you with Mayor Johnson of Chicago.
I think is doing a great job standing up to Trump.
Let's play it Trump. If he was serious about safety,
he would not have defunded a program of $800 million that was
geared towards violence prevention.
He cut the ATF budget by 30%. He has defunded our our
(14:17):
education system. He has defunded our
transportation system. He is firing black women across
this country. He's defunding our healthcare
system. This, this president is
absolutely out of control, and it's incumbent upon all of us.
If there was ever a time for working people to unite in this
country, now is that time. And the city of Chicago is going
to stand firm in protecting humanity and protecting and
(14:40):
defending our democracy. All right, there you have it

(13:31):
And they're taking stakes in each other's companies.
And it's like a very circular funnel of the same businesses
making announcements to pump up the market.
If you actually look at some of these deals.
And when it comes to semiconductors, AI, what's going
on right now, they have like a new announcement every week.
But it's kind of the same tranche of money, if you will,
(13:54):
but it's causing the stock priceto rise.
Anyway, let me leave you with Mayor Johnson of Chicago.
I think is doing a great job standing up to Trump.
Let's play it Trump. If he was serious about safety,
he would not have defunded a program of $800 million that was

He cut the ATF budget by 30%. He has defunded our our
(14:17):
education system. He has defunded our
transportation system. He is firing black women across
this country. He's defunding our healthcare
system. This, this president is
absolutely out of control, and it's incumbent upon all of us.
If there was ever a time for working people to unite in this
country, now is that time. And the city of Chicago is going
to stand firm in protecting humanity and protecting and
(14:40):
defending our democracy. All right, there you have it
folks. Let me know what you think.
