Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Watchdog on Wall Street podcast explaining the news coming
out of the complex worlds of finance, economics, and politics
and the impact it we'll have on everyday Americans. Author,
investment banker, consumer advocate, analyst, and trader Chris Markowski.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
Jasmine Crockett and Idiocracy. Jasmin Crockett is a member of
Congress from the outside the Dallas area. She's been making
the rounds. She appears on late night programs, regular on
MSNBC and various different shows. Why not not because of

(00:43):
her intelligence, that's for sure, but for the fact that
she puts on a show. She puts on a show.
It's it's again, it's it's embarrassing. I want to I
want to talk about that. I've talked about the movie Idiocracy,
which I highly recommend. You know, again, it's not for

(01:03):
the kids. It's you know, it's a little bit on
the uh, I guess, on the dirty side in some
parts without a doubt. But again, it just shows just
the the decline of America over four hundred years because
we get dumber and dumber and dumber. I really do

(01:28):
believe at this point in time that I think, I
really think that I alluded to in my last podcast,
I think we should get rid of cameras inside of Congress. No,
no more, no more videos. You know, at the most,
you know what they should do c SPAN, c SPAN

(01:52):
should have that. They should be only ones that to
be allowed to do it. And you have to watch
c SPAN, you have to watch the spent they're not
allowed to say. The clips are not allowed to go anywhere.
They're not allowed to go to you know, any of
these places, none of the you know, social media spots
anything like that. Because I'm sorry, people, I'm watching this

(02:16):
stuff that goes on. And it's not just Jasmine Crockett.
You're watching what's her name there, Horano and the way
the questions that she's asking. This is all for clips,
This is all for views on their YouTube page. I

(02:37):
don't even know. Are they members of Congress. I'm not
going to find this out. Are they allowed to monetize
their YouTube page? Maybe? I don't know. I'm not sure,
but that's that's what they're doing. They are acting in
a ridiculous fashion there. It's an embarrassment, uh quite frankly,

(02:57):
to our country. And I think we get hell of
a lot more done if members of Congress were more
concerned about actually doing their job then you know, making
the getting clicks on social media. Yeah, it's it's almost
like a parody to watch some of these things. Jasmine

(03:19):
Crockett for you watched this, listen see for yourself. Okay,
and listen. There's ones on the right to that act
like absolute fools from time to time, looking to get
their name in the paper, looking to get a little
bit more street credit, whatever it may be. And don't
forget you're here to serve the people. You're not here

(03:42):
to serve yourself. Watch Dog on Wall Street dot com.
