Speaker 1 (00:00):
Are there Republicans in the Senate who don't want the
Save America Act because they don't like Trump? Is it
really that straightforward, that devious, if you will. Ashley Brassfield
joins US now. She is a reporter of the Daily Caller.
She has a exclusive a scoop on this one. John
Thune admits some Senate Republicans hate Trump too much to
(00:23):
support the Save America Act. Ashley, what is going on here?
Speaker 2 (00:27):
I know if you're having to hold your breath because
you can't believe they said the quiet part out loud
and this, But what happened yesterday was a GOP lunch,
So they're having lunch on a Wednesday. It's all the
senators and basically a broad kind of or a fight,
whichever you want to call it. Cap fight breaks out
basically against the Save America Act in this lunch and
one of the things that was allegedly said by John
(00:49):
Thune was that Republicans will never vote for this because
they cannot stand President Donald Trump, and they never will.
And we've seen seeing for the last year a fight
go on with the same bill. I feel like we
been talking about it forever. And one of the aspects
of this was that a lot of these GOP senators,
some that were named in a Andrew Decidario tweet yesterday
when Senator John Kennedy, John Cornyn, and then of course
(01:12):
the comment by Thoon was obtained by the Daily Caller,
but the you know, Decidario tweet basically said that they
went after Senator Mike Lee, who has been the sponsor
of the Save America Act. And there are two, you know,
versions of this bill. There's the one that was passed
by the House and then there's the extension version. And
basically what Senator Lee's argument here is they want to
(01:33):
continue with the one that was passed by the House.
Uh and basically you know that already has the signatures
of co signers on it to move forward. There's also
this discussion that it is attached to FI so that
we can talk about that's going on. But basically, yesterday
it was a falling out that happened at allegedly at
this GOP lunch. So, I mean, we did our best
to cover it, but I think it's very interesting to
(01:53):
see figures like John Cornyn still holding as much power
as he has after the Texas Senate race. Of course,
we saw play out, and you know, this is one
of those topics that seems pretty common sense that a
lot of voters agree with that voted for President Trump
in twenty twenty four, and we saw how the twenty
twenty election played out. So I think for a lot
of the GOP base seeing that what they're saying behind
(02:14):
these closed doors isn't really important.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
So explain this to me if you would. Can this
even it can't get through, right? So is the point
here as long as the filibuster is in place for
the Senate Republicans to act as one on this pass
the Save America Act, which looks like that's not even
gonna happen, but just to play this out, they passed
the Save America Act and then force Democrats to do
(02:39):
an actual filibuster. Is that the game plan?
Speaker 2 (02:43):
Yeah, so you're hearing two arguments. I'll start with Mike
Lee's argument on that site. It's a little more complicated
understand sometimes, but it's basically saying, we do not have
the sixty votes in order to go forward for cloture,
so now we're going to try possibly a talking filibuster,
is what he thinks is the best thing to go forward.
On this. What that would fire is the Senate Majority
Leader John Thune to basically put this thing on the
(03:04):
floor and give it time and it can go on
for weeks, but it can be painful. They would have
to work, they would have to stand on their feet,
which is hard for the senators. I think on both sides,
I think we know at this point, but basically would say,
you know, we have a real chance here of you know,
putting Democrats in a bad position pr wise politically to
say they are against this, and that's what he's asking for.
(03:26):
As far as John Thune's argument, he was on Bredbear's
show actually on Tuesday explaining this, they just don't have
enough votes. But he won't, you know, clarify as to
why he won't kind of tough it out, use his
leverage to go after some of these GOP Senators. Tom Phillis,
who's been on that side, Senator Mitch McConnell. You know,
you can name a few of them that are kind
(03:47):
of the obvious detractors sometimes on the Senator Collins has
also come on the side of signing with the same
America Act. I think the one that was passing the
House specifically, so I mean, you can kind of look
at this. Both are arguments, but I mean, since the
Senate Majority leader when it comes to the talking filibuster,
has the power to do it, there is a frustration
though as to why he hasn't done it, and the
(04:08):
excuse tends to be, oh, we need to get this
legislation pass or this legislation pass when they're kind of
just been the stall in the Senate. And I think
most Americans that keep up with politics kind of have
seen this. There's DHS funding that was having trouble being
put through, So there's an argument to be said, Okay,
which one is more important to us going forward? And
we can also talk about the FISA attachment that you know,
(04:30):
President Trump has put forward saying, you know, I don't
want FISA without Save America attached to it, which there's
an argument to be made that that's against Fourth Amendment rights,
spying on Americans. There's a lot of the grassroots that
disagree with that. So the actual aspect of this, of
how to get it passed is the actual argument though
that is continuously being made and you've seen Senator Lego
(04:53):
and Fox News and talk about it and John Dune.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
We can come back here in a second, Ashley, I
want to ask you what you're hearing about how clearly
some Republicans in the Senate not huge maga guys. Really,
that's not a surprise to anybody though. But I want
to know what you're hearing about the various voices from
the GOP side on this Iran deal, so you can
gear that up for us here in just a second.
(05:18):
But our sponsor here is Supersure Buying Rather. Business owners
know that buying business insurance is necessary, but it's complicated,
it's way too difficult, and it's a mess. It shouldn't be.
So this is where Supershore comes in. Because you know
you need business insurance and if your company has more
than twenty five employees, whether you're the owner, CFO or
HR manager, it's just too complicated to get that policy
(05:41):
set up online. You don't even know what it covers.
Super short changes that. Super Sure is the super agency
built for you for business owners and operators. It's licensed
in every state for your business insurance and employee benefits,
all with year round support for you and your team.
At supershore dot com slash buck you can check out
a business value calculators. You can estimate what your business
(06:02):
is worth, so you know what's what actually needs protecting.

scheduled programming.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
MS.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Brassfield, tell me what are you hearing about Republicans in
the Senate and this Iran deal? Because it's interesting. You
have some Trump haters who I think might actually like it,
and then you have some generally pro Trump people, although
complicated history, like Senator Ted Cruz who seems like he
doesn't really like it. So what have you heard from
(06:44):
the actual senator Senate staffers?
Speaker 2 (06:46):
So this is my observation on it, so far as
you know, you have a lot of these I would
say more so pro war senators and you know, considered
Magar or not. But I think there is this kind
of switch all of a sudden. They were the ones saying, oh,
these all these pannikins that didn't want the war, but
then there all of a sudden not technically trusting Trump's
deal and you know, we've just got the deal actually
(07:07):
the actual paperwork and framework yesterday to the public. So
obviously there was kind of this rallying up on the
pro warfront. I think not sure if Israel had heard
about the deal yet if not, or you know, the
public not hearing about it. But it was this kind
of interesting switch of not trusting what President Trump was
doing that I found very interesting. But I mean, look,
(07:30):
I think on the Senate side, specifically, we saw Roger
Marshall go on CNN, I believe last night and say,
you know, he would like to see Iran be able
to defend itself, which I thought was a very interesting
answer myself seeing that. So I think it's an interesting spread.
And it was a strategic decision by the administration not
to share the deal with Congress, obviously, and I think
that you see kind of the aspects of why that
(07:51):
might be because of the Save America Act and the
discussions there, the relationships maybe that are complicated now on
the Senate comparatively to the start of the second term
for the Trump administration. But I find it very interesting,
and I think it's going to be you know, we
have sixty days to see the outcome of this MoU
going forward, and it's going to be quite interesting to
see which sides come out more satisfied. And there is
(08:13):
a discussion of you know, what does it mean to
have won obviously meeting the objective goals that the DOW
has set out, but for a lot of people across
the right and the conservative spectrum that are more pro
war anti wars than in the middle, trusting Trump that
they either agree with it or they don't.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Yeah, it's interesting because you have the people who in
politics and in general right who opposed the war in
the first place are now saying that they are they
feel like they're vindicated. People who were for this action
are also somewhat upset with Trump, and then the other
(08:51):
people that seem to be just in a I trust
Trump to see this through category. And I see that
among senators and members of the House too, Like there's
these different these different voices that sometimes intersect and sometimes
obviously are in opposition in ways that are surprising.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
Yeah, well, you can look at President Trump's own opinion.
I don't think he personally enjoys war, Like I don't
you saw that with some of the comments he's made
about BB net and Yahoo and the bombings in Lebanon himself.
So I mean, if you want to, you know, look
at this spectrum of the conservative movement, I mean where
President Trump falls. He doesn't seem to like war. Obviously,
we've you know, been carrying out a you know, whole
(09:29):
bombing campaign against Iran. But it's you know, to him,
I think, in his mind, and I don't want to
put words in his mouth, it seems like he wanted
an end eventually. For some it feels like on the
right they don't want an end or whatever the end is,
it comes down to annihilation of Iran of some sort.
So it is this wide spectrum. And that's what I
mean about winning here. And you you know, they set
out the goals of what they wanted to do when Iran,
(09:51):
the government did and the administration did. But I think
for a lot of these people, with this whatever peace deal, memoranda,
whatever worded you would like to use, there's going to
be some that are not toa And that's what you know.
War is ugly, and at certain points, I know the
saying is nobody wins. Obviously we hope the US wins.
In the interim of this, I think we can all
agree on that, but there's going to be disagreement going forward.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Yeah, war as hell. It also has been said, and
it is certainly true. I think there should be at
least an agreement across a lot of folks here that
it's good that that part of it, that the conflict
part of it, the kinetic action as they say in
the military, has settled down quite a bit. All right, now,
I want to take in a different direction, have a
little fun for a second here. What are you doing
(10:33):
to celebrate your DC native You are something of a
just going to be honest, You're a swamp dweller. You
dwell in the swamp itself. Yeah, I mean so technically
you know that is where you are. But I'm sure
it's going to be a super fun place to be
for the two fiftieth and all the stuff that this
administration is planning to do. What are are you going
(10:57):
to partake in anything? In particular? Are Are you sad
Millie Vanilli has pulled out of the music Act. We
spoke to Vanilla Ice, I will tell you he is
definitely in So where are you on all this?
Speaker 2 (11:11):
Yeah? So here at the Daily Caller, we try and
keeper pulse on the American people. I know we're located
in DC, but we want to cover things that the
American people care about, that matter to them, that affect
them in their every day live so I always try
and keep that in mind. One of the interesting things
that they've done with this two fifty that they've recently
announced just this week that I jumped on when I
saw it was the two fifty rodeo. And I can't
(11:31):
spoil too much, but we're going to be doing something.
The Daily Caller is me and a clueague, Rebecca. We're
going to be going down there possibly and checking it
out and giving some behind the scenes before the rodeo starts.
That automatically I'm a Southerner. That caught my eye and
I was like, I got to be there. And I
also was walking them all yesterday. They're constructing everything. It
looks great right now. I saw the Ferris wheel being constructed.
(11:53):
But they've also got this FIFA World Cup section set
up for viewing purposes for the DC Games, and I
think it's a great setup that I past it last night,
was not able to go in because I had a bag.
So it's TSA rules apply people don't bring your bag.
But it's such a great setup and it's a really
great view. We were just over there yesterday walking through
it all, and you're seeing it come together, and I
(12:13):
think people are going to really enjoy it. It's gonna
be a great time, and a Daily College is planning
on covering many aspects other than just the rodeo.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
What is it?
Speaker 2 (12:23):
Will it be?
Speaker 1 (12:24):
I'm sorry I have to ask, yes, will it be
your first rodeo?
Speaker 2 (12:28):
It will not be my first rodeo as a Southerner.
I've been to plenty in Texas. But they have a
ranch I believe. I don't remember the name, and I've
forgotten it now, but it's coming from Colorado. So we're
getting the real thing. Cowboys, cowgirls, So I mean, you're
gonna get it. Seems like everything you wants, the roping, riding,
so more to get all the swamp creatures to come
(12:49):
see what real America is all about?
Speaker 1 (12:50):
Is what I Are you going to get some? Because
I know you were d one volleyball player? Are you
going to get some two fiftieth Celebrate America beach volleyball
matches going out on the mall.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
We might have to there are some courts over by
the Lincoln Memorial and maybe we should get some going
hustle a few people, or get some you know, collaborative games.
But it's gonna be a great view. They're doing such
a great job right now. I mean, they just have
an idea for you.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
I have an idea for you, viral video idea. You
just go recruit a bunch of purple haired nos ring
Trump hating communists and then you just say, we're just
going to have a friendly game in celebration the two fiftieth.
And then you don't tell them. You play D one
volleyball and you spike it at them as hard as
you can.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
There you go, you hustle them. I'm like, or we
can keep a patriotic and take the National Guard and
have a fun game instead. They're more fun.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
That would probably be a better idea, although my idea
I think would be cool too. All Right, everybody go
check out Ashley Brassfield's piece at Daily Caller dot com
and of course follow her on social media, and she
will be posting, I'm sure, all kinds of cool stuff
about the two to fiftieth from the swamp where she lives.
But she is not of like mind necessarily at all.
There we go, Miss Brassfield, Thank you, thank you
Speaker 2 (13:58):
For having me.

it's good that that part of it, that the conflict
part of it, the kinetic action as they say in
the military, has settled down quite a bit. All right, now,
I want to take in a different direction, have a
little fun for a second here. What are you doing
(10:33):
to celebrate your DC native You are something of a
just going to be honest, You're a swamp dweller. You
dwell in the swamp itself. Yeah, I mean so technically
you know that is where you are. But I'm sure
it's going to be a super fun place to be
for the two fiftieth and all the stuff that this
administration is planning to do. What are are you going
(10:57):
to partake in anything? In particular? Are Are you sad
Millie Vanilli has pulled out of the music Act. We
spoke to Vanilla Ice, I will tell you he is
definitely in So where are you on all this?
Speaker 2 (11:11):
Yeah? So here at the Daily Caller, we try and
keeper pulse on the American people. I know we're located
in DC, but we want to cover things that the
American people care about, that matter to them, that affect
them in their every day live so I always try
and keep that in mind. One of the interesting things
that they've done with this two fifty that they've recently
announced just this week that I jumped on when I
saw it was the two fifty rodeo. And I can't
(11:31):
spoil too much, but we're going to be doing something.
The Daily Caller is me and a clueague, Rebecca. We're
going to be going down there possibly and checking it
out and giving some behind the scenes before the rodeo starts.
That automatically I'm a Southerner. That caught my eye and
I was like, I got to be there. And I
also was walking them all yesterday. They're constructing everything. It
looks great right now. I saw the Ferris wheel being constructed.
(11:53):
But they've also got this FIFA World Cup section set
up for viewing purposes for the DC Games, and I
think it's a great setup that I past it last night,
was not able to go in because I had a bag.
So it's TSA rules apply people don't bring your bag.
But it's such a great setup and it's a really
great view. We were just over there yesterday walking through
it all, and you're seeing it come together, and I
(12:13):
think people are going to really enjoy it. It's gonna
be a great time, and a Daily College is planning
on covering many aspects other than just the rodeo.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
What is it?
Speaker 2 (12:23):
Will it be?
Speaker 1 (12:24):
I'm sorry I have to ask, yes, will it be
your first rodeo?
Speaker 2 (12:28):
It will not be my first rodeo as a Southerner.
I've been to plenty in Texas. But they have a
ranch I believe. I don't remember the name, and I've
forgotten it now, but it's coming from Colorado. So we're
getting the real thing. Cowboys, cowgirls, So I mean, you're
gonna get it. Seems like everything you wants, the roping, riding,
so more to get all the swamp creatures to come
(12:49):
see what real America is all about?
Speaker 1 (12:50):
Is what I Are you going to get some? Because
I know you were d one volleyball player? Are you
going to get some two fiftieth Celebrate America beach volleyball
matches going out on the mall.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
We might have to there are some courts over by
the Lincoln Memorial and maybe we should get some going
hustle a few people, or get some you know, collaborative games.
But it's gonna be a great view. They're doing such
a great job right now. I mean, they just have
an idea for you.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
I have an idea for you, viral video idea. You
just go recruit a bunch of purple haired nos ring
Trump hating communists and then you just say, we're just
going to have a friendly game in celebration the two fiftieth.
And then you don't tell them. You play D one
volleyball and you spike it at them as hard as
you can.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
There you go, you hustle them. I'm like, or we
can keep a patriotic and take the National Guard and
have a fun game instead. They're more fun.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
That would probably be a better idea, although my idea
I think would be cool too. All Right, everybody go
check out Ashley Brassfield's piece at Daily Caller dot com
and of course follow her on social media, and she
will be posting, I'm sure, all kinds of cool stuff
about the two to fiftieth from the swamp where she lives.
But she is not of like mind necessarily at all.
There we go, Miss Brassfield, Thank you, thank you
Speaker 2 (13:58):
For having me.
