Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's that time, time, Time, Time, Luck and load.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
The Michael Vari Show is on the air.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Because of the obvious threat to untold numbers of citizens,
and because of the crisis which is even now developing,
this radio station will remain on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Day and night.
Speaker 4 (00:36):
There are warnings that the US is dangerously close to
a constitutional crisis.
Speaker 5 (00:40):
I mean, what we are witnessing is a constitutional crisis.
Speaker 4 (00:43):
The media is convinced that the actions of President Trump,
like executive orders and Department of Government efficiency, have created
or will soon create a constitutional crisis. Those that have
said that we made face a constitutional crisis, I want
you to know that the crisis is here.
Speaker 6 (01:03):
Constitutional crisis, grossly unconstitutional.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
This is a genuine constitutional crisis.
Speaker 7 (01:09):
I think this is the most serious constitution crisis the
country has faced, certainly since Watergate.
Speaker 8 (01:14):
The president is attempting to.
Speaker 9 (01:16):
Seize control of power and for corrupt purposes. Well you
can crime River.
Speaker 6 (01:25):
I do not vote to elect Elmo as a Bond
villain as our president of the United States.
Speaker 10 (01:32):
We have to upholl the constitution.
Speaker 6 (01:34):
That's what we're here to do now. Republicans have attacked
us time and time again because we model the values
of diversity and inclusion.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Well, that is what.
Speaker 6 (01:43):
America is about. Don't let us then tell us we're
not American. We are of the true Americans here. America
is about us.
Speaker 11 (01:51):
We have to reclaim our country, USA, usaying USA.
Speaker 10 (01:56):
This is all about taking over the government in order
to advance the interests of Elon Musk and the billionaires
at the expense of everybody else in America. It was
the big lie and the big betrayal.
Speaker 12 (02:13):
We have got to tell Elon Musk, Nobody elected your ass.
Nobody up to you could get all of our private information.
Nobody told you you could be in charge of the
payments of this country. We have told you you've made
enough money of our government yourself. Elon Musk is seizing
(02:36):
power from the American people.
Speaker 9 (02:43):
I cannot get enough of Maxine Waters, followed by Elizabeth Warren,
because nothing better reflects the two largest demographics of the
Democrat Party, the angry black woman and the angry liberal
(03:05):
white woman, better than those two mascots for the madness
we're gonna talk about. And Ramo and Jim. Don't let
me forget Ramona's out on the Great American road Trip.
So Jim, our creative director is in for him this week.
We're gonna talk about this audio more at length, but
(03:27):
I got to play it in case you only get
to hear one segment. What I'm about to play you're
going to think is a parody, because we do make
jokes and we do make parodies. But I want to
be very clear, this is not a parody. This is
a real interview by Aaron Zitner of The Wall Street
Journal with three individuals named Daniel moraf Leanne Fann, and
(03:53):
Morris Katz. These are the three individuals who chose Graham
Platner to be the Democrat nominee in Maine. What they're
going to tell you is how they chose him. The
Democrats want that seat to vote against Trump, to impeach Trump,
(04:14):
and they thought, we got to stop. We're not doing
well with black candidates, We're not doing well with women.
Kamala was a bust. Let's see, we've got these weasley
white guy. We've got to find Let's find a manly man.
So they go and find Graham Platner. How did they
find Graham Platner?
Speaker 8 (04:36):
In their own words, how did you find Graham Platner?
Speaker 13 (04:41):
Well, so, I mean we went through thousands and thousands
of prospects. Then you know, Len pulled up this video
of this guy with an oyster farm.
Speaker 14 (04:50):
My name is Graham Platner and I live at Sullivan, Maine,
the owner of Frenchman Bay Oyster Company.
Speaker 13 (04:55):
And then she pulled up his FEC history and saw, yeah,
the money he can give to Bernie Sanders and you
know some other people. And that was enough information to
know that we had the best prospect that we'd maybe
ever seen.
Speaker 8 (05:10):
How did you go about vetting him?
Speaker 13 (05:12):
And why did you We paid a Yeah, we paid
a nice firm a whole chunk of money and got
some stuff back.
Speaker 15 (05:21):
Did the vetting process turn up the tattoo that became
so controversial.
Speaker 8 (05:26):
Now the Reddit posts? Did that turn up in the
vetting process?
Speaker 13 (05:36):
The firm sent us a thing and it had some
of the po but it didn't have all of them.
Speaker 15 (05:43):
How did you think your way through the fact that
he had posted these things on social media?
Speaker 13 (05:49):
I said, none of this well or should stop him
from becoming a US center.
Speaker 9 (05:55):
That's who chose the nominee in much the same way
that AOC was chosen by the Democrat Socialists to be
the Camel's nose under the tent to push socialism through
the House and the Senate into the White House. Now
we turn our attention to the Democrat nominee in Texas
(06:16):
to be the US Senator where Democrats want that seat
even more. Here is their candidate, white liberal, James Talerico.
This is clip number four. Oh for Jim.
Speaker 7 (06:29):
You saw it in the anti LGBTQ legislation, including the
bill that would have denied gender affirming health care to
trans children, and then, of course famously, infamously, we saw
it last session with the most extreme abortion ban in
the country. All of these, all these ideologies stem from
(06:50):
this Christal fascism movement.
Speaker 9 (06:54):
Opposition to abortion stems from Christo fascism, opposition to child
sex surgery reassignment stems from chrystal fascism. This is a
person who hates traditional Christian beliefs. Proof positive. Here he
(07:16):
was on a podcast with a person who spends his
or her that person can't make up their mind time
criticizing Christianity and claims to be a Christian.
Speaker 16 (07:27):
You know, I always think of myself as a Christian
who hates Christianity right, and like I always get always
get drawn back into it because nowhere else, in no
other political philosophy, in no other economic theory, do I
find anything as truly radical or revolutionary as the teachings
(07:47):
of that that barefoot rabbi, right which which I think,
as you mentioned, doctor Robin, you know, look a lot
like you know, the teachings of the Buddha and from
other other great mystical traditions.
Speaker 9 (08:01):
That's who the Democrats chose to be our nominee in Texas.
I'm not gonna happen. I know my people too well,
not gonna happen.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
When Chuck Norris's parents had nightmares, they would come to
his bedroom of Michael Berry. Time waits for no man
unless that man is Chuck Norris.
Speaker 9 (08:22):
Glenn Campbell died on this day nine years ago at
eighty one years old. I have to say, I don't
know how many people go out on top. Not most.
Most folks, particularly famous folks, have a run early in life,
and if they can hold on to it for a while, good,
(08:46):
And then you just kind of dig in and hope
you can get to the grave still able to pay
your bills off the celebrity you once had. But usually
you outlive the money and the fame. And then there
are those people who don't even go to your concerts,
(09:06):
who will see a video of you in concert, who
couldn't carry a tune in a bucket. Who's that?
Speaker 14 (09:13):
You know?
Speaker 9 (09:14):
He ned's hang it up. He didn't hang hed, hed
sit home and not not play anymore here. Well, you
didn't go? What are you disappointed? Everybody knows if somebody's
old and they perform, what it's going to be. When
it was announced that Glenn Campbell had I forget what
his actual condition was, Jim, do you remember what the
(09:34):
condition was. The actual it was some form of dementia,
but he was he was losing his memory and he'd
lose it in little packets of time and and so uh,
he he goes on tour and he sings jennle on
(09:55):
My Mind, and then you know, they they made a
doctor documentary of it, and you know in a songletter
he'd he'd turned to his son and the family, the
band general on my Mind. No, no, we did that,
and sometimes they let him do it several times. He
didn't know. It's a popular song. Everybody loves the song.
(10:16):
It's timeless and wonderful, and you can hear it a
few times, and so the audience would would sort of
indulge him in this and and nobody seemed to mind.
You knew before you went to the concert that he
was in this condition, this was his this was his
farewell tour, and it wouldn't be long, and that he'd
had these significant memory issues, and nobody, everybody, kind of
(10:45):
everybody kind of joined in.
Speaker 6 (10:46):
You know.
Speaker 9 (10:47):
It was sort of like a closing of the ranks
to show Glenn Campbell's some love at his Very few
people well are so in their public lives, are so
lucky to get that kind of public compassion and mercy
(11:12):
and grace. The public can be cruel, the very public
that once loved you can be terribly, terribly cruel, and
especially toward age. And as I've said many times times before,
I don't think it has anything to do with the
(11:33):
person that they're talking about. I think that we cringe.
We look away from age. We don't want to wither.
We don't want to be wizened. We don't want to
be drawn up, seized up, crippled, slooped over, stumped over
with wrinkles and our hair fall out or our hair
(11:57):
changed colors. We don't want that We reject it, We
viscerally rejected, so that when we see it in someone
who was beloved, we want them to hide, to go away,
to withdraw from public life. Don't go out and sing anymore.
You can't sing the way you once could, and having
(12:20):
to look at you grosses me out. That's the impression
I get. That's the distinct impression I get. Scott Jennings
on CNN absolute brilliance talking about Graham Platner, the Democrat
Senate candidate from Maine. He said this, I'm amazed.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
That is how breezily Democrats are out there publicly discussing
subverting the will of the people of Maine. Graham Platner
overwhelmingly won a primary ninety eight percent. Of what we
know about Graham Platner, we already knew. The voters knew,
the Democrats knew, the activists knew, the donors knew.
Speaker 9 (12:59):
Everybody knew.
Speaker 4 (13:01):
There's a reason wherever they voted for him summer of
twenty four they voted for anyway.
Speaker 9 (13:06):
Your grand player hasn't dropped out of this race. If
grand Planter does drop out, but all.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
These Democrats and even some of the well, I guess
we'll have to get somebody else. You had to vote.
This is a democracy. The Democrats voted, and now the
Party of Democracy is apparently going to subvert the will
of the people.
Speaker 8 (13:25):
Scott though.
Speaker 17 (13:26):
From Scott though, is that obviously the Republicans at this
point would love to run again, scram Platter.
Speaker 9 (13:30):
I mean that's got a gift.
Speaker 17 (13:32):
I mean that would be a gift for that.
Speaker 4 (13:34):
And look, it's not a gift that someone like this
was allowed to make it this far and in this process.
But he did make it this far. And I think
the Demos sometimes, what's the old saying, you know, you
made your bed, now you got to lie in it
the process here, the Democrats ought to have to lie
(13:54):
in this. I just.
Speaker 9 (13:57):
Everybody knew Graham Platner dark secrets, but look the other
way until now, everyone except the folks at NPR. They're
still holding on to hope. The following program is only
made possible by contributions from listeners like you, Good Evening.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
This is hard fact's soft voices, and I'm Wesley Cardigan.
Tonight we must sit with something uncomfortable, and I want
you to sit with me in the discomfort on a cushion.
Ideally reclaimed sit It candidate Graham Platner, oyster man poet
ally has been accused, and the corporate media wants a
(14:38):
simple answer. But, friends, I want to ask a harder question,
a braver question. Who among us has not not literally obviously,
please don't clip that, But consider, for four hundred years
American capitalism has taken from this land without consent. It
stripped the top soil, it fracked the bedrock. Did anyone
(14:59):
ask the Ogilalla aquifer how it felt? Did anyone ask
the prairie? So when we condemn one man, are we
not deflecting? Are we not letting big oil off the hook?
I'm just asking. I'm just a small voice in a
large fleece. Platner is running against a Republican who voted
against wetlands. Wetlands, friends, So in a very real sense,
(15:21):
staying in this race may be the most feminist.
Speaker 9 (15:23):
Thing he can do.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
We believe survivors, We believe them so much, and we
also believe in the map, in the count, in the
sixty vote threshold, we believe her. We're just believing her.
Quietly off cycle in a state that doesn't matter, following
this program, Juniper Moonhollow demonstrates throat singing for reluctant sourdough starters.
(15:46):
I'm Wesley Cardigan and this has been complicated.
Speaker 7 (15:56):
Very shall.
Speaker 9 (16:02):
I don't know who Sonny Hostin was before The View.
I don't know how she ended up on the View,
but I am grateful she's there, and I'm grateful that
show is there. The View is one of those programs
that nobody actually watches in real time. Joy Reid Show
(16:27):
was this way, and there was actually a programmer at
CNN or MSNBC who talked about this that shown some
shows are programmed to be talked about later, nobody ever
actually watches them. And the hope is that because they're
talked about later, people will say, well I keep hearing
(16:49):
about in this case the View, let me watch it.
But it doesn't happen. This show is designed to gather
a hen party of women who are incredibly uninformed on anything.
They're all dysfunctional afternoon drunks and talk about important, serious
(17:16):
issues but from a postmenopausal, very uninformed, highly emotional perspective.
And because it's so stupid, it makes for a good
talk radio. And Fox uses a lot of their stuff,
so they get a lot of secondhand attention, just based
(17:40):
on the stuff they do. Sonny Houston is a great
example of the perfect casting for this program. So she
goes on the View and says out loud into a
microphone that's being filmed that she would have plugged her
and voted for Graham Plattner anyway. Here's what she said.
Speaker 5 (18:06):
I lived in Maine, I would have, you know, plugged
my nose and I would have voted for him.
Speaker 9 (18:10):
Anyway.
Speaker 5 (18:11):
I think that we are in a time of accentral
crisis in this country. I think Republicans fall in line,
they don't fall in love. Democrats want to fall in
love and not fall in line. You know, the Republican Party,
the bar is so very low.
Speaker 9 (18:24):
I can't believe.
Speaker 5 (18:26):
I cannot believe that they want to try to assume
the moral high ground the Republican Party. I mean, you know,
you can miss me with all that, especially when you
have Pete Hexap, who was confirmed by the Senate in
twenty twenty five as the head as a cabinet member
as the Defense Secretary, when he had one drinking allegations
(18:49):
his sister in law. His sister in law submitted a
sworn affidavit describing his drinking problem, and in order to
get confirmed, he pledged he wouldn't drink on the job.
Number two, he had a tattoo controversy, not one, but
two tattoo controversies. One was a Day's vault tattoo, which
is used by white nationalist groups. Two he had as
(19:11):
a Jerusalem cross tattoo, which has been interpreted as an
extreme extremist symbol. And finally, in twenty seventeen, a woman
claimed he had sexually assaulted her after a conference. She
reported that assault immediately, she had a sexual assault examination
and in twenty twenty and he says it was a
consensual encounter, and in twenty twenty he paid her fifty
(19:33):
thousand dollars to settle the claim. Yet yet the yesnemned,
but the Republicans Republicans confirmed him, and who has been credibly.
I'm thinking about the Republican Party as a whole. So
when they are the Epstein, they are the Epstein file,
protect the Protection Party.
Speaker 9 (19:54):
There was a time women couldn't vote. Here she is,
she's she's afraid of the American flag.
Speaker 5 (20:04):
And I said this on this show many many years ago,
because this is my tenth year on the show, and
I said, there are times when I walk into a
community and I see American flags all over the community,
and I suddenly feel unsafe because there is a section
of this country that has co opted the American flag,
and they equate being an American or an American flag
(20:26):
with white supremacy, and that should never be ever the
symbol of white supremacy, but they have weaponized because the
flag belongs.
Speaker 9 (20:34):
To all of us. It does belong to all of us.
Speaker 8 (20:36):
But don't memory.
Speaker 9 (20:37):
Oh yes, oh yes. Some woman in the crowd is
feeling very empowered. She's gonna clap for that one, and
some others clapped with her. Yes they have. They're weighing
in on the very important issues, and people are listening
to them. Mika Brazinski, mourning Joe's mistress, spent five minutes
(21:03):
grilling the political reporter who broke the Platiner story. No
police report, no legal case, what makes this publishable? Adam
Wrenn walked through it. There were there were corroborating pieces
of evidence. This is Adam Wrenn, political reporter.
Speaker 11 (21:21):
We found ultimately the number of coroborating pieces of evidence
to support her story in a way that we could
report it.
Speaker 17 (21:33):
So what are some of those corroborating pieces of evidence.
So you've got conversations with her therapist and people who
she can fight it in any conversations with Graham Platner
at the time of it, where she said because apparently
as part of this story, she says she even confirmed
(21:54):
to him that this was not consent.
Speaker 8 (21:57):
Do you have that?
Speaker 17 (21:58):
What do you have that actually connects this literally Graham
Platner to raping this victim.
Speaker 11 (22:08):
Yeah, she reached out to him the day after via
Instagram and essentially, you know, told him that, you know,
she didn't want to hear from again.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
She told him that morning as well.
Speaker 9 (22:22):
Uh.
Speaker 11 (22:22):
And uh, you know, we we uh looked at messages
that she had sent to others in the months after
this happened.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
Through social media to see those d ms.
Speaker 9 (22:34):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
She tried to recover those dms.
Speaker 11 (22:37):
We did not We were not able to review those dms,
but she described them to us. We also, long before
he was a public before he was a political candidate,
we saw her essentially explain to others that he was
quote in her words, consensually careless end quote.
Speaker 9 (22:57):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
And but do you were you.
Speaker 17 (23:00):
Well to see the interactions between grand Platner and this
alleged victim, did you actually physically see them? Did she
produce them for you?
Speaker 2 (23:09):
She attempted to uncover them?
Speaker 8 (23:13):
What was that ample to.
Speaker 9 (23:16):
It's such a weird place in this country where the
only thing that can disallow a person in politics is sex.
Nothing you do. You can leave the borders wide open,
you can. You can deplete the treasury, you can give
(23:38):
contracts to every family member. You can steal billions of dollars.
You can take money from the Chinese, the Russians, the Ukrainians.
It doesn't matter, none of it, None of it is disqualifying.
The only thing we ever care about is sex. There's
(24:02):
something deep rooted here, There's something really deeply rooted in
our public consciousness that the one violation that anybody cares
about is sex. So look, this guy should be gone.
The Democrats should be ashamed of themselves for him. But
(24:25):
we didn't need a girl saying he came over and
wanted sex and I said no, and he continued. It
didn't take that to get there. We should have seen
this ten steps ago. Democrats have been so eager to
find candidates that they can then put their grassroots, their organization,
(24:46):
their paid money, their activists, their media friendships toward winning.
But they got to go find the candidate. You will
remember that Alexandria Cassio Cortez, Sandy from the the bartender
from the neighborhood block, auditioned along with other people. They
(25:07):
sat across from a table. How does she look? How
does she speak? Can she repeat the lines we give her?
Is she coachable? Teachable? Ownable? Because this was the camel's
nose under the tent. We're going to get her in
there and make her nationally famous, and damned if they
didn't do it. Well, you want to know how Graham
(25:30):
Platner became the Democrat candidate for US Senate in Maine.
Three people found him on the internet. They liked his
oyster farm. It's not a joke. They pulled his Federal
Election Commission history. They saw that he had donated to
Bernie Sanders. They said, oh, this is our guy. We've
(25:53):
got our guy. They hired a firm to vet him.
The Wall Street Journal sat down with the people who
built Graham Platner.
Speaker 8 (26:05):
How did you find Graham Platner?
Speaker 13 (26:09):
Well, so, I mean, we went through thousands and thousands
of prospects.
Speaker 9 (26:12):
Dad.
Speaker 13 (26:13):
You know, Lee, I'm pulled up this video, oh, of
this guy with an oyster farm.
Speaker 14 (26:17):
My name is Graham Platner and I live in Sullivan.
Speaker 9 (26:20):
Hold on, hold on, I'm going to have to hear
this dude's voice again. This is the weasel who is
choosing candidates for the Democrats. Oh my goodness, he has
a lower testosterone level than James tall Rico. This is
(26:40):
a Democrat man. Here we go up.
Speaker 13 (26:42):
This video of this guy with an oyster farm.
Speaker 14 (26:45):
My name is Graham Plattner and I live in Sullivan, Maine,
the owner of Frenchman Bay Oyster Company.
Speaker 13 (26:50):
And then she pulled up his FEC history and saw, Yeah,
the money he'd given to Bernie Sanders and you know,
some other people. And that was enough of information to
know that we had the best prospect that we'd maybe
ever seen.
Speaker 8 (27:05):
How did you go about vetting him?
Speaker 13 (27:08):
And why did you We paid a Yeah, we paid
a nice firm a whole chunk of money and got
some stuff back.
Speaker 15 (27:16):
Did the vetting process turn up the tattoo that became
so controversial, No, the Reddit posts, did that turn up
in the vetting process?
Speaker 13 (27:32):
The firm sent us a thing and it had some
of the po but it didn't have all of them.
Speaker 15 (27:39):
How did you think your way through the fact that
he had posted these things on social media?
Speaker 13 (27:45):
I said, none of this well or should stop him
from becoming a US senator.
Speaker 9 (27:52):
Good grief. That is choosing people from outside outs, choosing
a person. This is Lena Hidalgo all over again, thrusting
that person in front of you with all the machinery.
(28:13):
This is a king tut type situation. This is what
you would have in the royal family. The heir to
the throne would be placed up there and they would
have his entire court and his military and his advisors,
and he would just be there as the front. And
(28:33):
that's what here's a manly man. We got some manly
man and an oyster farm. They probably already had the
spots written. Graham Platiner understands a hard day's work. This
is him at his oyster farm. Susan Collins, she's not
an oyster farmer. Graham Platiner is, and he understands that
(28:56):
you gotta dig a little to get to the truth.
Graham Platin Democrat for Senator, and you find out that
it's this little sissified weasel up talker. Well, we thought
that none of it would be a problem. We really
(29:17):
like him. Good, let's hear that again. We got to
hear that again. This is who is choosing candidates for
the Democrats. These are not people who choose to run.
They go and knock on the door. You're a real
manly man. We think we can put you in the Senate.
You'll get really rich. George Sorows has a lot of money,
(29:41):
and we'll run the campaign for you. You're such a
manly man and that's what we need. Listen to this.
Speaker 8 (29:50):
Guy, how did you find grand Platner?
Speaker 13 (29:55):
Well, so, I mean, we want through thousands and thousands
of prospects. Dad, you know, hold up this video of
this guy with an oyster farm.
Speaker 14 (30:03):
My name is Graham Plattner and I live in Sullivan, Maine,
the owner of Frenchman Bay Oyster Company.
Speaker 13 (30:08):
And then she pulled up his FEC history and saw,
you know, the money he'd given to Bernie Sanders and
you know, some other people. And that was enough information
to know that we had the best prospect that we'd
maybe ever seen.
Speaker 8 (30:24):
How did you go about vetting him? And why did you.
Speaker 13 (30:27):
We paid a Yeah, we paid a We paid a
nice firm a whole chunk of money and got some
stuff back.
Speaker 15 (30:35):
Did the vetting process turn up the tattoo that became
so controversial.
Speaker 8 (30:40):
Now the Reddit posts process.
Speaker 13 (30:51):
The firm sent us a thing and it had some
of the h but it didn't have all of them.
Speaker 15 (30:57):
How did you think your way through the fact that
he had posted these things on social media?
Speaker 13 (31:03):
I said, none of this well or should stop him
from becoming a US center.
Speaker 9 (31:10):
He decided that this would be the nominee, this little weasel. Here,
there's your American political process at play, and we have
obtained exclusive audio of the actual vetting process.
Speaker 10 (31:29):
Hikes qualifications, rape, murder, awesome and rape.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
You said rape twice.
Speaker 11 (31:37):
I like rape.
Speaker 8 (31:41):
Jobbing sign right here.
Speaker 9 (31:44):
There's a blazing saddles for everything. So I want you
to stop and ponder for a moment. This is bigger
than AOC or Tall Rico or Graham Platner. This get
to the fundamental foundation of our political system in America today.
(32:09):
These people are being chosen, groomed, funded. The package is
handed to the media what to highlight, what to stay
away from. There's millions of dollars pumped into creating a
glossy ad this is what our process has become. That
(32:35):
it'd be interesting to know. Do they care what this
person thinks about any issues? And what would be those
few issues that he has to pledge allegiance to the
important thing is to defeat the Republicans with a controllable Democrat.
(32:57):
And they these three people, they choose him, and and
now now you've heard from him, and you wonder why
DC is what it is.
It's that time, time, Time, Time, Luck and load.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
The Michael Vari Show is on the air.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Because of the obvious threat to untold numbers of citizens,
and because of the crisis which is even now developing,
this radio station will remain on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Day and night.
Speaker 4 (00:36):
There are warnings that the US is dangerously close to
a constitutional crisis.
Speaker 5 (00:40):
I mean, what we are witnessing is a constitutional crisis.
Speaker 4 (00:43):
The media is convinced that the actions of President Trump,
like executive orders and Department of Government efficiency, have created
or will soon create a constitutional crisis. Those that have
said that we made face a constitutional crisis, I want
you to know that the crisis is here.
Speaker 6 (01:03):
Constitutional crisis, grossly unconstitutional.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
This is a genuine constitutional crisis.
Speaker 7 (01:09):
I think this is the most serious constitution crisis the
country has faced, certainly since Watergate.
Speaker 8 (01:14):
The president is attempting to.
Speaker 9 (01:16):
Seize control of power and for corrupt purposes. Well you
can crime River.
Speaker 6 (01:25):
I do not vote to elect Elmo as a Bond
villain as our president of the United States.
Speaker 10 (01:32):
We have to upholl the constitution.
Speaker 6 (01:34):
That's what we're here to do now. Republicans have attacked
us time and time again because we model the values
of diversity and inclusion.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Well, that is what.
Speaker 6 (01:43):
America is about. Don't let us then tell us we're
not American. We are of the true Americans here. America
is about us.
Speaker 11 (01:51):
We have to reclaim our country, USA, usaying USA.
Speaker 10 (01:56):
This is all about taking over the government in order
to advance the interests of Elon Musk and the billionaires
at the expense of everybody else in America. It was
the big lie and the big betrayal.
Speaker 12 (02:13):
We have got to tell Elon Musk, Nobody elected your ass.
Nobody up to you could get all of our private information.
Nobody told you you could be in charge of the
payments of this country. We have told you you've made
enough money of our government yourself. Elon Musk is seizing
(02:36):
power from the American people.
Speaker 9 (02:43):
I cannot get enough of Maxine Waters, followed by Elizabeth Warren,
because nothing better reflects the two largest demographics of the
Democrat Party, the angry black woman and the angry liberal
(03:05):
white woman, better than those two mascots for the madness
we're gonna talk about. And Ramo and Jim. Don't let
me forget Ramona's out on the Great American road Trip.
So Jim, our creative director is in for him this week.
We're gonna talk about this audio more at length, but
(03:27):
I got to play it in case you only get
to hear one segment. What I'm about to play you're
going to think is a parody, because we do make
jokes and we do make parodies. But I want to
be very clear, this is not a parody. This is
a real interview by Aaron Zitner of The Wall Street
Journal with three individuals named Daniel moraf Leanne Fann, and
(03:53):
Morris Katz. These are the three individuals who chose Graham
Platner to be the Democrat nominee in Maine. What they're
going to tell you is how they chose him. The
Democrats want that seat to vote against Trump, to impeach Trump,
(04:14):
and they thought, we got to stop. We're not doing
well with black candidates, We're not doing well with women.
Kamala was a bust. Let's see, we've got these weasley
white guy. We've got to find Let's find a manly man.
So they go and find Graham Platner. How did they
find Graham Platner?
Speaker 8 (04:36):
In their own words, how did you find Graham Platner?
Speaker 13 (04:41):
Well, so, I mean we went through thousands and thousands
of prospects. Then you know, Len pulled up this video
of this guy with an oyster farm.
Speaker 14 (04:50):
My name is Graham Platner and I live at Sullivan, Maine,
the owner of Frenchman Bay Oyster Company.
Speaker 13 (04:55):
And then she pulled up his FEC history and saw, yeah,
the money he can give to Bernie Sanders and you
know some other people. And that was enough information to
know that we had the best prospect that we'd maybe
ever seen.
Speaker 8 (05:10):
How did you go about vetting him?
Speaker 13 (05:12):
And why did you We paid a Yeah, we paid
a nice firm a whole chunk of money and got
some stuff back.
Speaker 15 (05:21):
Did the vetting process turn up the tattoo that became
so controversial.
Speaker 8 (05:26):
Now the Reddit posts? Did that turn up in the
vetting process?
Speaker 13 (05:36):
The firm sent us a thing and it had some
of the po but it didn't have all of them.
Speaker 15 (05:43):
How did you think your way through the fact that
he had posted these things on social media?
Speaker 13 (05:49):
I said, none of this well or should stop him
from becoming a US center.
Speaker 9 (05:55):
That's who chose the nominee in much the same way
that AOC was chosen by the Democrat Socialists to be
the Camel's nose under the tent to push socialism through
the House and the Senate into the White House. Now
we turn our attention to the Democrat nominee in Texas
(06:16):
to be the US Senator where Democrats want that seat
even more. Here is their candidate, white liberal, James Talerico.
This is clip number four. Oh for Jim.
Speaker 7 (06:29):
You saw it in the anti LGBTQ legislation, including the
bill that would have denied gender affirming health care to
trans children, and then, of course famously, infamously, we saw
it last session with the most extreme abortion ban in
the country. All of these, all these ideologies stem from
(06:50):
this Christal fascism movement.
Speaker 9 (06:54):
Opposition to abortion stems from Christo fascism, opposition to child
sex surgery reassignment stems from chrystal fascism. This is a
person who hates traditional Christian beliefs. Proof positive. Here he
(07:16):
was on a podcast with a person who spends his
or her that person can't make up their mind time
criticizing Christianity and claims to be a Christian.
Speaker 16 (07:27):
You know, I always think of myself as a Christian
who hates Christianity right, and like I always get always
get drawn back into it because nowhere else, in no
other political philosophy, in no other economic theory, do I
find anything as truly radical or revolutionary as the teachings
(07:47):
of that that barefoot rabbi, right which which I think,
as you mentioned, doctor Robin, you know, look a lot
like you know, the teachings of the Buddha and from
other other great mystical traditions.
Speaker 9 (08:01):
That's who the Democrats chose to be our nominee in Texas.
I'm not gonna happen. I know my people too well,
not gonna happen.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
When Chuck Norris's parents had nightmares, they would come to
his bedroom of Michael Berry. Time waits for no man
unless that man is Chuck Norris.
Speaker 9 (08:22):
Glenn Campbell died on this day nine years ago at
eighty one years old. I have to say, I don't
know how many people go out on top. Not most.
Most folks, particularly famous folks, have a run early in life,
and if they can hold on to it for a while, good,
(08:46):
And then you just kind of dig in and hope
you can get to the grave still able to pay
your bills off the celebrity you once had. But usually
you outlive the money and the fame. And then there
are those people who don't even go to your concerts,
(09:06):
who will see a video of you in concert, who
couldn't carry a tune in a bucket. Who's that?
Speaker 14 (09:13):
You know?
Speaker 9 (09:14):
He ned's hang it up. He didn't hang hed, hed
sit home and not not play anymore here. Well, you
didn't go? What are you disappointed? Everybody knows if somebody's
old and they perform, what it's going to be. When
it was announced that Glenn Campbell had I forget what
his actual condition was, Jim, do you remember what the
(09:34):
condition was. The actual it was some form of dementia,
but he was he was losing his memory and he'd
lose it in little packets of time and and so uh,
he he goes on tour and he sings jennle on
(09:55):
My Mind, and then you know, they they made a
doctor documentary of it, and you know in a songletter
he'd he'd turned to his son and the family, the
band general on my Mind. No, no, we did that,
and sometimes they let him do it several times. He
didn't know. It's a popular song. Everybody loves the song.
(10:16):
It's timeless and wonderful, and you can hear it a
few times, and so the audience would would sort of
indulge him in this and and nobody seemed to mind.
You knew before you went to the concert that he
was in this condition, this was his this was his
farewell tour, and it wouldn't be long, and that he'd
had these significant memory issues, and nobody, everybody, kind of
(10:45):
everybody kind of joined in.
Speaker 6 (10:46):
You know.
Speaker 9 (10:47):
It was sort of like a closing of the ranks
to show Glenn Campbell's some love at his Very few
people well are so in their public lives, are so
lucky to get that kind of public compassion and mercy
(11:12):
and grace. The public can be cruel, the very public
that once loved you can be terribly, terribly cruel, and
especially toward age. And as I've said many times times before,
I don't think it has anything to do with the
(11:33):
person that they're talking about. I think that we cringe.
We look away from age. We don't want to wither.
We don't want to be wizened. We don't want to
be drawn up, seized up, crippled, slooped over, stumped over
with wrinkles and our hair fall out or our hair
(11:57):
changed colors. We don't want that We reject it, We
viscerally rejected, so that when we see it in someone
who was beloved, we want them to hide, to go away,
to withdraw from public life. Don't go out and sing anymore.
You can't sing the way you once could, and having
(12:20):
to look at you grosses me out. That's the impression
I get. That's the distinct impression I get. Scott Jennings
on CNN absolute brilliance talking about Graham Platner, the Democrat
Senate candidate from Maine. He said this, I'm amazed.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
That is how breezily Democrats are out there publicly discussing
subverting the will of the people of Maine. Graham Platner
overwhelmingly won a primary ninety eight percent. Of what we
know about Graham Platner, we already knew. The voters knew,
the Democrats knew, the activists knew, the donors knew.
Speaker 9 (12:59):
Everybody knew.
Speaker 4 (13:01):
There's a reason wherever they voted for him summer of
twenty four they voted for anyway.
Speaker 9 (13:06):
Your grand player hasn't dropped out of this race. If
grand Planter does drop out, but all.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
These Democrats and even some of the well, I guess
we'll have to get somebody else. You had to vote.
This is a democracy. The Democrats voted, and now the
Party of Democracy is apparently going to subvert the will
of the people.
Speaker 8 (13:25):
Scott though.
Speaker 17 (13:26):
From Scott though, is that obviously the Republicans at this
point would love to run again, scram Platter.
Speaker 9 (13:30):
I mean that's got a gift.
Speaker 17 (13:32):
I mean that would be a gift for that.
Speaker 4 (13:34):
And look, it's not a gift that someone like this
was allowed to make it this far and in this process.
But he did make it this far. And I think
the Demos sometimes, what's the old saying, you know, you
made your bed, now you got to lie in it
the process here, the Democrats ought to have to lie
(13:54):
in this. I just.
Speaker 9 (13:57):
Everybody knew Graham Platner dark secrets, but look the other
way until now, everyone except the folks at NPR. They're
still holding on to hope. The following program is only
made possible by contributions from listeners like you, Good Evening.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
This is hard fact's soft voices, and I'm Wesley Cardigan.
Tonight we must sit with something uncomfortable, and I want
you to sit with me in the discomfort on a cushion.
Ideally reclaimed sit It candidate Graham Platner, oyster man poet
ally has been accused, and the corporate media wants a
(14:38):
simple answer. But, friends, I want to ask a harder question,
a braver question. Who among us has not not literally obviously,
please don't clip that, But consider, for four hundred years
American capitalism has taken from this land without consent. It
stripped the top soil, it fracked the bedrock. Did anyone
(14:59):
ask the Ogilalla aquifer how it felt? Did anyone ask
the prairie? So when we condemn one man, are we
not deflecting? Are we not letting big oil off the hook?
I'm just asking. I'm just a small voice in a
large fleece. Platner is running against a Republican who voted
against wetlands. Wetlands, friends, So in a very real sense,
(15:21):
staying in this race may be the most feminist.
Speaker 9 (15:23):
Thing he can do.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
We believe survivors, We believe them so much, and we
also believe in the map, in the count, in the
sixty vote threshold, we believe her. We're just believing her.
Quietly off cycle in a state that doesn't matter, following
this program, Juniper Moonhollow demonstrates throat singing for reluctant sourdough starters.
(15:46):
I'm Wesley Cardigan and this has been complicated.
Speaker 7 (15:56):
Very shall.
Speaker 9 (16:02):
I don't know who Sonny Hostin was before The View.
I don't know how she ended up on the View,
but I am grateful she's there, and I'm grateful that
show is there. The View is one of those programs
that nobody actually watches in real time. Joy Reid Show
(16:27):
was this way, and there was actually a programmer at
CNN or MSNBC who talked about this that shown some
shows are programmed to be talked about later, nobody ever
actually watches them. And the hope is that because they're
talked about later, people will say, well I keep hearing
(16:49):
about in this case the View, let me watch it.
But it doesn't happen. This show is designed to gather
a hen party of women who are incredibly uninformed on anything.
They're all dysfunctional afternoon drunks and talk about important, serious
(17:16):
issues but from a postmenopausal, very uninformed, highly emotional perspective.
And because it's so stupid, it makes for a good
talk radio. And Fox uses a lot of their stuff,
so they get a lot of secondhand attention, just based
(17:40):
on the stuff they do. Sonny Houston is a great
example of the perfect casting for this program. So she
goes on the View and says out loud into a
microphone that's being filmed that she would have plugged her
and voted for Graham Plattner anyway. Here's what she said.
Speaker 5 (18:06):
I lived in Maine, I would have, you know, plugged
my nose and I would have voted for him.
Speaker 9 (18:10):
Anyway.
Speaker 5 (18:11):
I think that we are in a time of accentral
crisis in this country. I think Republicans fall in line,
they don't fall in love. Democrats want to fall in
love and not fall in line. You know, the Republican Party,
the bar is so very low.
Speaker 9 (18:24):
I can't believe.
Speaker 5 (18:26):
I cannot believe that they want to try to assume
the moral high ground the Republican Party. I mean, you know,
you can miss me with all that, especially when you
have Pete Hexap, who was confirmed by the Senate in
twenty twenty five as the head as a cabinet member
as the Defense Secretary, when he had one drinking allegations
(18:49):
his sister in law. His sister in law submitted a
sworn affidavit describing his drinking problem, and in order to
get confirmed, he pledged he wouldn't drink on the job.
Number two, he had a tattoo controversy, not one, but
two tattoo controversies. One was a Day's vault tattoo, which
is used by white nationalist groups. Two he had as
(19:11):
a Jerusalem cross tattoo, which has been interpreted as an
extreme extremist symbol. And finally, in twenty seventeen, a woman
claimed he had sexually assaulted her after a conference. She
reported that assault immediately, she had a sexual assault examination
and in twenty twenty and he says it was a
consensual encounter, and in twenty twenty he paid her fifty
(19:33):
thousand dollars to settle the claim. Yet yet the yesnemned,
but the Republicans Republicans confirmed him, and who has been credibly.
I'm thinking about the Republican Party as a whole. So
when they are the Epstein, they are the Epstein file,
protect the Protection Party.
Speaker 9 (19:54):
There was a time women couldn't vote. Here she is,
she's she's afraid of the American flag.
Speaker 5 (20:04):
And I said this on this show many many years ago,
because this is my tenth year on the show, and
I said, there are times when I walk into a
community and I see American flags all over the community,
and I suddenly feel unsafe because there is a section
of this country that has co opted the American flag,
and they equate being an American or an American flag
(20:26):
with white supremacy, and that should never be ever the
symbol of white supremacy, but they have weaponized because the
flag belongs.
Speaker 9 (20:34):
To all of us. It does belong to all of us.
Speaker 8 (20:36):
But don't memory.
Speaker 9 (20:37):
Oh yes, oh yes. Some woman in the crowd is
feeling very empowered. She's gonna clap for that one, and
some others clapped with her. Yes they have. They're weighing
in on the very important issues, and people are listening
to them. Mika Brazinski, mourning Joe's mistress, spent five minutes
(21:03):
grilling the political reporter who broke the Platiner story. No
police report, no legal case, what makes this publishable? Adam
Wrenn walked through it. There were there were corroborating pieces
of evidence. This is Adam Wrenn, political reporter.
Speaker 11 (21:21):
We found ultimately the number of coroborating pieces of evidence
to support her story in a way that we could
report it.
Speaker 17 (21:33):
So what are some of those corroborating pieces of evidence.
So you've got conversations with her therapist and people who
she can fight it in any conversations with Graham Platner
at the time of it, where she said because apparently
as part of this story, she says she even confirmed
(21:54):
to him that this was not consent.
Speaker 8 (21:57):
Do you have that?
Speaker 17 (21:58):
What do you have that actually connects this literally Graham
Platner to raping this victim.
Speaker 11 (22:08):
Yeah, she reached out to him the day after via
Instagram and essentially, you know, told him that, you know,
she didn't want to hear from again.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
She told him that morning as well.
Speaker 9 (22:22):
Uh.
Speaker 11 (22:22):
And uh, you know, we we uh looked at messages
that she had sent to others in the months after
this happened.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
Through social media to see those d ms.
Speaker 9 (22:34):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
She tried to recover those dms.
Speaker 11 (22:37):
We did not We were not able to review those dms,
but she described them to us. We also, long before
he was a public before he was a political candidate,
we saw her essentially explain to others that he was
quote in her words, consensually careless end quote.
Speaker 9 (22:57):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
And but do you were you.
Speaker 17 (23:00):
Well to see the interactions between grand Platner and this
alleged victim, did you actually physically see them? Did she
produce them for you?
Speaker 2 (23:09):
She attempted to uncover them?
Speaker 8 (23:13):
What was that ample to.
Speaker 9 (23:16):
It's such a weird place in this country where the
only thing that can disallow a person in politics is sex.
Nothing you do. You can leave the borders wide open,
you can. You can deplete the treasury, you can give
(23:38):
contracts to every family member. You can steal billions of dollars.
You can take money from the Chinese, the Russians, the Ukrainians.
It doesn't matter, none of it, None of it is disqualifying.
The only thing we ever care about is sex. There's
(24:02):
something deep rooted here, There's something really deeply rooted in
our public consciousness that the one violation that anybody cares
about is sex. So look, this guy should be gone.
The Democrats should be ashamed of themselves for him. But
(24:25):
we didn't need a girl saying he came over and
wanted sex and I said no, and he continued. It
didn't take that to get there. We should have seen
this ten steps ago. Democrats have been so eager to
find candidates that they can then put their grassroots, their organization,
(24:46):
their paid money, their activists, their media friendships toward winning.
But they got to go find the candidate. You will
remember that Alexandria Cassio Cortez, Sandy from the the bartender
from the neighborhood block, auditioned along with other people. They
(25:07):
sat across from a table. How does she look? How
does she speak? Can she repeat the lines we give her?
Is she coachable? Teachable? Ownable? Because this was the camel's
nose under the tent. We're going to get her in
there and make her nationally famous, and damned if they
didn't do it. Well, you want to know how Graham
(25:30):
Platner became the Democrat candidate for US Senate in Maine.
Three people found him on the internet. They liked his
oyster farm. It's not a joke. They pulled his Federal
Election Commission history. They saw that he had donated to
Bernie Sanders. They said, oh, this is our guy. We've
(25:53):
got our guy. They hired a firm to vet him.
The Wall Street Journal sat down with the people who
built Graham Platner.
Speaker 8 (26:05):
How did you find Graham Platner?
Speaker 13 (26:09):
Well, so, I mean, we went through thousands and thousands
of prospects.
Speaker 9 (26:12):
Dad.
Speaker 13 (26:13):
You know, Lee, I'm pulled up this video, oh, of
this guy with an oyster farm.
Speaker 14 (26:17):
My name is Graham Platner and I live in Sullivan.
Speaker 9 (26:20):
Hold on, hold on, I'm going to have to hear
this dude's voice again. This is the weasel who is
choosing candidates for the Democrats. Oh my goodness, he has
a lower testosterone level than James tall Rico. This is
(26:40):
a Democrat man. Here we go up.
Speaker 13 (26:42):
This video of this guy with an oyster farm.
Speaker 14 (26:45):
My name is Graham Plattner and I live in Sullivan, Maine,
the owner of Frenchman Bay Oyster Company.
Speaker 13 (26:50):
And then she pulled up his FEC history and saw, Yeah,
the money he'd given to Bernie Sanders and you know,
some other people. And that was enough of information to
know that we had the best prospect that we'd maybe
ever seen.
Speaker 8 (27:05):
How did you go about vetting him?
Speaker 13 (27:08):
And why did you We paid a Yeah, we paid
a nice firm a whole chunk of money and got
some stuff back.
Speaker 15 (27:16):
Did the vetting process turn up the tattoo that became
so controversial, No, the Reddit posts, did that turn up
in the vetting process?
Speaker 13 (27:32):
The firm sent us a thing and it had some
of the po but it didn't have all of them.
Speaker 15 (27:39):
How did you think your way through the fact that
he had posted these things on social media?
Speaker 13 (27:45):
I said, none of this well or should stop him
from becoming a US senator.
Speaker 9 (27:52):
Good grief. That is choosing people from outside outs, choosing
a person. This is Lena Hidalgo all over again, thrusting
that person in front of you with all the machinery.
(28:13):
This is a king tut type situation. This is what
you would have in the royal family. The heir to
the throne would be placed up there and they would
have his entire court and his military and his advisors,
and he would just be there as the front. And
(28:33):
that's what here's a manly man. We got some manly
man and an oyster farm. They probably already had the
spots written. Graham Platiner understands a hard day's work. This
is him at his oyster farm. Susan Collins, she's not
an oyster farmer. Graham Platiner is, and he understands that
(28:56):
you gotta dig a little to get to the truth.
Graham Platin Democrat for Senator, and you find out that
it's this little sissified weasel up talker. Well, we thought
that none of it would be a problem. We really
(29:17):
like him. Good, let's hear that again. We got to
hear that again. This is who is choosing candidates for
the Democrats. These are not people who choose to run.
They go and knock on the door. You're a real
manly man. We think we can put you in the Senate.
You'll get really rich. George Sorows has a lot of money,
(29:41):
and we'll run the campaign for you. You're such a
manly man and that's what we need. Listen to this.
Speaker 8 (29:50):
Guy, how did you find grand Platner?
Speaker 13 (29:55):
Well, so, I mean, we want through thousands and thousands
of prospects. Dad, you know, hold up this video of
this guy with an oyster farm.
Speaker 14 (30:03):
My name is Graham Plattner and I live in Sullivan, Maine,
the owner of Frenchman Bay Oyster Company.
Speaker 13 (30:08):
And then she pulled up his FEC history and saw,
you know, the money he'd given to Bernie Sanders and
you know, some other people. And that was enough information
to know that we had the best prospect that we'd
maybe ever seen.
Speaker 8 (30:24):
How did you go about vetting him? And why did you.
Speaker 13 (30:27):
We paid a Yeah, we paid a We paid a
nice firm a whole chunk of money and got some
