Speaker 1 (00:00):
Okay, white supremacist violence. It is always have been the
number one threat to odd society.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
But I'm also very proud that my wife is white.
It's a practice club, bitch. Please tell me why was
I your donkey of the day?
Speaker 1 (00:14):
Yes, donkey today for Friday, March fourteenth, go is Senator
Chuck Schumer of New York, the minority leader who broke
with his party, the Democrats, on Thursday and signaled that
he will clear it away for a Republican spending bill.
Let's go to Fox forty for the report police.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
I believe it is my job to make the best
choice for the country to minimize the harms to the
American people. Therefore, I will vote to keep the government
open and not shut it down.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Schumer is only the second Senate Democrat to state definitively
his intention to vote to advance the GOP written spending bill,
but it's likely he'll give the political cover to other Democrats. Still,
Schumer admits he agrees on principle with his fellow Dems
that the bill is far from ideal.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
D bill is very bad. The potential for a shutdown
has consequences for America that are much much worse.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
Schumer argued that a shutdown would leave veterans without critical
services and could empower Trump to lay off more staff
at the Social Security Administration, hurting seniors and people with disabilities.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
It is not a clean CR. It is deeply partisan.
It doesn't address far too many of this country's needs.
But I believe allowing Donald Trump to take even more,
even much more power via a government shutdown is a
far worse option.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Now. I don't know what happened between Wednesday and Thursday,
because on Wednesday, Chuck Schumer said he wouldn't do that.
He said Senate Democrats would not provide the votes needed
for Republicans to advance the House approved deal to fund
the government through September. In fact, Schumer proposed a one
month stopgap measure to allow time to negotiate. And that's
what you should do if you think a bill is terrible, negotiate.
(01:58):
By the way, I'm not saying the Republican bill is.
Chuck Schumer said that let's listen to him again. Say it. Listen.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
There is nobody in the world, nobody who wants to
shut the government down more than Donald Trump and more
than Elon Musk. While the CR bill is very bad.
The potential for a shutdown has consequences for America that
are much much worse.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Oh, Chuck Schumer. Oh, Democrats the party of inaction. That's
the difference between Democrats and Republicans. One party is about
inaction and one party is about all action. Okay, even
if that action is harmful to the country, doesn't matter.
They are always doing something. Republicans have an agenda, they
have a plan, and they stick together, all of them
to execute that plan. It doesn't matter if Republicans go
(02:42):
at each other and the media disagree with each other,
because when it comes time to vote, they all fall
in line. Okay, they get things done. Democrats do not
do this, and this is just the latest example, per usual,
the party of an action. The Democrats have failed to
protect or even attempt to fight for the interests of
the American people. I know Dems don't have much leverage,
but damn it, if you got some.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
Use it.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Okay. Salute to the good sister former Ohio State Senator
Nina Turner. I saw her post something last night on
Instagram that I completely agree with. She said, and I quote,
as Republicans hold a trifecta which means they control all
branches of government. It was their party's responsibility to pass
a budget and get the votes to keep government running,
not the Democratic Party. End quote. Never mind that the
(03:27):
bill is terrible, Chuck Schuman, you said the bill is
very bad. You said the Republican bill is a terrible option.
You said it's not clean, you said it's deeply partisan.
And the most important part, it doesn't address the country's needs.
So on one hand, the government shuts down, and the
other hand, a terrible bill passes that doesn't address the
country's needs. So it sounds to me like, regardless of
(03:48):
how this goes, working class Americans get screwed.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Typical.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
Okay, Democrats get pushed around and bullied into doing the
Republicans bidding.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Typical.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
So, in the words of DMX, here we go again. Listen.
Since twenty nineteen, I've been getting on this radio and
telling you that Democrats suck in messaging. I wrote about
it in my third book, Get on Us a Dieline. Okay,
but the reason dem suck at messaging is simply because
they have nothing to talk about. Okay. They ain't talk
about nothing. What they talking about?
Speaker 2 (04:17):
What they talking about?
Speaker 1 (04:17):
The ain't talking about not that, because they have nothing
to talk about, no identity, no plan, no backbone. Republicans
are the bullies. Democrats are the cowards, and that's the story. Okay,
but listen, in order to change the messaging, you gotta
change the people and the party. They will always and
forever continue to have a messaging problem because Democrats have
a leadership problem. And it's time for the Chuck Schumers
(04:42):
of the world, the Hakim Jeffreys of the world, to
step down, go away. We need people in those positions
willing to fight. Not only should Chuck Schuman Hakim Jeffrey
step down, any Democrat who isn't fighting for the people
in standard with the party should be primary. Okay, We
the people have zero confidence in democratic leadership, all right.
People will continue to have zero confidence in Democrats until
(05:02):
we get some new Democrats. Okay, don't talk to me
about midterms, don't talk to me about twenty twenty eight,
because the reality is, what's the point of voting for
the type of Democrats that will continue to do nothing?
All right? We need to get rid of what we
got and bring something new in. I don't want any
more cowardly Democrats who are beholding to the corporate dollar,
because when you are beholding to the corporate dollar, you
(05:24):
are beholding the corporate interests and not the interests of
the people. Chuck Schumer, if you know a bill is terrible, Okay,
If you know this bill doesn't serve the best interest
of the people, what are you voting for it for? Okay,
You're not even gonna try to put up a fight
when it comes to budget negotiations. You're not even gonna
try to negotiate. Chuck Schumer thinks that by twenty twenty
six Republicans will be so unpopular because of the policies
(05:46):
they've implemented and because the economy is so bad that
people will just come running back to Democrats. But does
he not realize that folks will remember that, you, too, Chuck,
voted for these bills. Hey, maybe Chuck Schumann doesn't really
think this bill is terrible. Maybe he likes the bill.
He just doesn't have the nuts to say, Hey, I
actually like the bill, and I'm voting for it because
it's good and I like it. I would respect that
(06:08):
because I don't care what party does what. I just
want things to get done so America can benefit. But
once again, because since everyone is playing politics, it simply
looks like one party, Republicans, is about action and the
other party, Democrats, is not. So what reason do I
have to continue to support the party of an action?
That narrative will not change for Democrats until the people
(06:28):
in the Democratic Party are changed. Please give Senator Chuck
Schumer the biggest he hull m.
Speaker 4 (06:38):
All right, you gotta be you have to be a
Republican when you're gonna come out and just say I'm
a Republican.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
What they got to do with being a Republican?
Speaker 4 (06:48):
Did anything a istion on Democrats? Like I'm earlier to
day you was like, what's the point of voting for them?
Speaker 1 (06:55):
So it's like if I if I vote for a
party and I support a party, and I expect the
party are going there and fight for me, and I
voted for them and fight for the American people, You're
damn right, I'm gonna be on their ass, know.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
What I'm saying, Like you like can't stand these people
like you lay by hate these people like this.
Speaker 5 (07:11):
By he going on Republicans and he going to Democrats,
he going on everybody you an opportunitists.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
I do, I do hate people who are not fighting
for the American people, who claim to be fighting for
the American people. You're absolutely right.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
I know.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
I'm telling you you are a gay Republican. That is
who you are.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
I'm not. I'm not Republican, are Democrat. I'm an American
and I want the best for the American people. So
if this man Chuck Schumer is telling me that this
bill is terrible and just yesterday he said he wouldn't
vote for it, but today he's flip flopping, yes, I'm
on his ass.
Speaker 5 (07:47):
I will say, yeah, now you're on everybody's ass. You're right,
you're a gay Republican. You you still on anything, whether
it's Republican, whether it's Democrat, whether it's independent. People always
hear you talk about Democrats more.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
But I'm gonna tell you you get equal opportunities when
it comes comes to it. I'm gonna think I'm really
a Republican when I take Ice up on this offer
and I go on this ride along with them, and
I show up to your house and I point to
your house and I say, that's where the illegals are, sir.
Speaker 5 (08:12):

put cases on both of y'all mother efforts.
