00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.899
Shock of all shocks, the Trump administration

00:00:02.899 --> 00:00:08.000
has lost its mind multiple times this week. After

00:00:08.000 --> 00:00:13.439
last week's show, we had the Trump flip -flop

00:00:13.439 --> 00:00:16.219
over the weekend of, don't vote for this. Republicans

00:00:16.219 --> 00:00:18.899
are stupid if you vote for this, too. Never mind,

00:00:19.140 --> 00:00:22.019
you should all vote for this. All of you vote

00:00:22.019 --> 00:00:27.300
for it right now. And so this week we had the

00:00:27.300 --> 00:00:30.160
vote. We guessed last week in our segment that

00:00:30.160 --> 00:00:31.519
there were going to be a bunch of defections.

00:00:31.519 --> 00:00:36.159
We'd heard 40 to 50. No, there was only one no

00:00:36.159 --> 00:00:38.880
vote in the House of Representatives and it was

00:00:38.880 --> 00:00:42.000
unanimous out of the Senate. And I don't think

00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:44.560
anybody saw that result coming. Nobody was like,

00:00:44.619 --> 00:00:47.520
yep, we're going to automatically go for that

00:00:47.520 --> 00:00:50.679
veto proof majority. The only no vote out of

00:00:50.679 --> 00:00:54.420
the House. was from Clay Higgins and his name

00:00:54.420 --> 00:00:56.280
alone should tell you all you need to know about

00:00:56.280 --> 00:01:00.679
that. Clay Higgins. I'm not going to vote for

00:01:00.679 --> 00:01:04.780
them Epstein files. Fuck that guy. Anyway, so

00:01:04.780 --> 00:01:06.900
we'll start there. We have another Trump nutty

00:01:06.900 --> 00:01:09.799
headline. We'll get to that in a second. Jay,

00:01:10.359 --> 00:01:14.819
were you surprised by the vote that it was that

00:01:14.819 --> 00:01:18.299
many people were like, yep, get this out there

00:01:18.299 --> 00:01:23.680
and What else did you think when this all finally

00:01:23.680 --> 00:01:29.680
kind of shook out? So for a few things so one

00:01:29.680 --> 00:01:38.560
I wasn't shocked that it passed because I think

00:01:38.560 --> 00:01:43.799
for me I was like whoever like votes no I I think

00:01:43.799 --> 00:01:47.599
that's just like career suicide like sorry it

00:01:47.659 --> 00:01:50.180
when their term is up like they're done like

00:01:50.180 --> 00:01:53.519
that's that gives you whoever they're running

00:01:53.519 --> 00:01:56.739
against that gives them that person like the

00:01:56.739 --> 00:02:00.060
perfect thing like oh hey like this person protected

00:02:00.060 --> 00:02:04.780
pedophiles like I was shocked that it passed

00:02:04.780 --> 00:02:10.159
that yeah that everyone pretty much agreed except

00:02:10.159 --> 00:02:13.120
for one person that it should be released so

00:02:13.120 --> 00:02:20.949
I was shocked by the I guess the number of people

00:02:20.949 --> 00:02:24.389
have voted yes. So I wasn't, but yeah, I wasn't

00:02:24.389 --> 00:02:28.289
surprised that it passed. My thought on this

00:02:28.289 --> 00:02:34.349
now, not knowing how like governmental, I don't

00:02:34.349 --> 00:02:38.860
know, top secret documents go. is I'm worried

00:02:38.860 --> 00:02:42.039
that now that everyone is backing this, like

00:02:42.039 --> 00:02:44.719
all the Republicans and Trump and his little

00:02:44.719 --> 00:02:50.319
group of friends, I'm worried that they got rid

00:02:50.319 --> 00:02:55.919
of some of the stuff. Some of the real bad stuff.

00:02:57.460 --> 00:02:59.800
I don't I don't think they even need to get rid

00:02:59.800 --> 00:03:01.139
of it. I think what they're going to do is they're

00:03:01.139 --> 00:03:04.120
going to call it classified. because the the

00:03:04.120 --> 00:03:07.060
actual legislation says they're releasing unclassified

00:03:07.060 --> 00:03:09.560
documents now they'll redact a bunch of it i

00:03:09.560 --> 00:03:11.280
think they're going to play some games with how

00:03:11.280 --> 00:03:16.000
they do the redactions and how they do the releases

00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:21.520
by classifying some of it they obviously um they

00:03:21.520 --> 00:03:27.620
obviously went down this road of um you know

00:03:27.620 --> 00:03:31.520
oh we opened a new investigation You know which

00:03:31.520 --> 00:03:33.020
everybody questioned we were like, but I thought

00:03:33.020 --> 00:03:35.419
you fool said like three months ago that you

00:03:35.419 --> 00:03:37.520
were close to the Investigation and there was

00:03:37.520 --> 00:03:40.360
nobody to go after right and they're like, well

00:03:40.360 --> 00:03:45.740
we got new information But nobody's buying it

00:03:45.740 --> 00:03:50.039
Again, no just nobody's buying this stuff. They're

00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:53.879
just not They have 30 days. So I think it's gonna

00:03:53.879 --> 00:03:56.520
be interesting to see what happens over the next

00:03:56.520 --> 00:03:59.469
30 days um the stuff that the house released

00:03:59.469 --> 00:04:02.509
last week that we talked about on the show we're

00:04:02.509 --> 00:04:06.849
starting to see some of the the the stuff that's

00:04:06.849 --> 00:04:09.169
going on with that larry summers stepped down

00:04:09.169 --> 00:04:11.810
from the board of open ai he's left his position

00:04:11.810 --> 00:04:14.270
at harvard he's gone away from the center for

00:04:14.270 --> 00:04:18.269
american progress um it's you know there are

00:04:18.269 --> 00:04:21.810
people it's already starting to affect some things

00:04:21.810 --> 00:04:26.930
um so i'll be curious i have no doubt though

00:04:27.100 --> 00:04:29.000
It's not even about sharing the documents. It's

00:04:29.000 --> 00:04:32.379
just, again, them calling it classified. Hey,

00:04:32.480 --> 00:04:34.019
this is classified. Fuck you. We're not we're

00:04:34.019 --> 00:04:39.139
not showing you, you know. And so I think it's

00:04:39.139 --> 00:04:41.540
going to turn into a bit of a fight. The other

00:04:41.540 --> 00:04:44.540
interesting piece of this legislation is let's

00:04:44.540 --> 00:04:46.240
say we get a different administration in there,

00:04:46.300 --> 00:04:51.139
a different AG. This law doesn't expire. So the

00:04:51.139 --> 00:04:54.959
next admin can use this law to release everything.

00:04:56.240 --> 00:05:03.360
If they want to. We'll see. I I am hesitant to

00:05:03.360 --> 00:05:05.199
make predictions after the flip flops from last

00:05:05.199 --> 00:05:08.079
week and everything else that's going on. I am.

00:05:08.079 --> 00:05:10.279
I am hesitant to make predictions on what the

00:05:10.279 --> 00:05:12.720
hell they're going to do. You know what I mean?

00:05:14.480 --> 00:05:17.860
So, yeah. All right. Should we move on to headline

00:05:17.860 --> 00:05:21.069
number two that happened today? Yeah, let's go.

00:05:21.250 --> 00:05:24.430
Okay headline number two Trump calling for the

00:05:24.430 --> 00:05:28.009
execution of Democratic lawmakers Here's what's

00:05:28.009 --> 00:05:30.089
happening. Let me break this down for everybody

00:05:30.089 --> 00:05:33.449
So a few days ago, there was a report I believe

00:05:33.449 --> 00:05:35.910
out of the New York Times Saying that certain

00:05:35.910 --> 00:05:39.529
senior military officials are seeking outside

00:05:39.529 --> 00:05:43.819
counsel right outside of the military to help

00:05:43.819 --> 00:05:46.120
them parse whether some of the orders they're

00:05:46.120 --> 00:05:49.220
getting from the DOD specifically around these

00:05:49.220 --> 00:05:55.000
strikes in Venezuela are legal, right? When this

00:05:55.000 --> 00:05:57.379
broke, some Democratic lawmakers made a big video

00:05:57.379 --> 00:05:59.720
targeting its service members and, you know,

00:05:59.819 --> 00:06:02.779
basically encouraging them to not follow illegal

00:06:02.779 --> 00:06:06.579
orders. When they did that, Trump was like, that's

00:06:06.579 --> 00:06:09.600
sedition. It's punishable by death. We don't

00:06:09.600 --> 00:06:18.680
have a country. So, why is this a thing? Why

00:06:18.680 --> 00:06:20.839
are they going to outside counsel? So, first

00:06:20.839 --> 00:06:23.079
off, what generally happens is that at the higher

00:06:23.079 --> 00:06:26.439
levels of command, they have a JAG officer. His

00:06:26.439 --> 00:06:28.740
job is to look at everything that's going on

00:06:28.740 --> 00:06:31.759
and do legal analysis and determine whether orders

00:06:31.759 --> 00:06:36.079
are legal. A bunch of JAG officers at the Pentagon

00:06:36.079 --> 00:06:39.339
have been fired. or removed from their positions.

00:06:39.819 --> 00:06:42.019
Right. The Southcom commander, who would oversee

00:06:42.019 --> 00:06:44.819
Venezuela, resigned suddenly right before all

00:06:44.819 --> 00:06:49.079
this stuff started happening. There is some question

00:06:49.079 --> 00:06:52.220
as to the legality of it. And as we learned at

00:06:52.220 --> 00:06:56.920
Nuremberg and after my lie, just saying I didn't

00:06:56.920 --> 00:07:00.839
know it wasn't illegal is not a defense. You

00:07:00.839 --> 00:07:04.910
can't use it as a defense. And what? Rightfully

00:07:04.910 --> 00:07:08.329
so. Some of these people are thinking about is,

00:07:08.329 --> 00:07:10.269
dude, I don't want to get six, seven years down

00:07:10.269 --> 00:07:13.910
the line. And suddenly I'm standing trial for

00:07:13.910 --> 00:07:18.250
war crimes. Right. Because that's what can happen.

00:07:19.750 --> 00:07:22.009
Now, are the Democrats playing politics with

00:07:22.009 --> 00:07:27.829
it? Absolutely. Is it sedition? No, no. He's

00:07:27.829 --> 00:07:32.350
just popping off at the mouth. Right. I heard

00:07:32.350 --> 00:07:34.910
and so if by the way, if you guys want good like

00:07:34.910 --> 00:07:37.170
news analysis, it's kind of almost both sides.

00:07:37.269 --> 00:07:39.290
I recommend breaking points. They have a great

00:07:39.290 --> 00:07:41.050
YouTube channel. They work with the guys who

00:07:41.050 --> 00:07:43.149
are drop site news or great independent news

00:07:43.149 --> 00:07:46.250
team. That's who I listen to pretty much every

00:07:46.250 --> 00:07:53.329
day. I love breaking points anyway. He he made

00:07:53.329 --> 00:07:55.050
a point today when they were talking about some

00:07:55.050 --> 00:07:58.410
of this stuff and they were talking about it

00:07:58.410 --> 00:08:00.850
in relation to this and the whole Comey prosecution.

00:08:01.050 --> 00:08:03.589
Right. Because that's falling apart on them.

00:08:03.850 --> 00:08:10.730
Right. It's the fascism of dunces. Right. These

00:08:10.730 --> 00:08:14.089
guys are trying to do a fascism. But they're

00:08:14.089 --> 00:08:19.930
not good at it. Right. The problem is they keep

00:08:19.930 --> 00:08:24.089
fucking things up like and they screw it. He

00:08:24.089 --> 00:08:27.189
hired yes men. Hegseth is in no way qualified

00:08:27.189 --> 00:08:33.600
to be the. the SecDef, Pam Bondi is not qualified

00:08:33.600 --> 00:08:39.779
to be the AG. She's really not, right? Okay.

00:08:41.539 --> 00:08:44.960
These people don't know what they're doing. Case

00:08:44.960 --> 00:08:47.879
in point, the person they put in charge of Comey's

00:08:47.879 --> 00:08:51.100
prosecution, because the first guy in Virginia,

00:08:51.659 --> 00:08:59.220
right, who was the person who Who they wanted

00:08:59.220 --> 00:09:03.580
to prosecute Comey said No, I can't There's nothing

00:09:03.580 --> 00:09:05.620
there. We can't prosecute him. So they fired

00:09:05.620 --> 00:09:07.759
him and they put in this woman named Lindsay

00:09:07.759 --> 00:09:14.500
Halligan right Lindsay Halligan is a lawyer right

00:09:14.500 --> 00:09:20.299
She was she worked for deco models she competed

00:09:20.299 --> 00:09:28.159
in Miss Colorado USA hmm, right um and Her primary

00:09:28.159 --> 00:09:31.759
thing that she's done for the last nine years

00:09:31.759 --> 00:09:38.620
is insurance law. She has never in her life done

00:09:38.620 --> 00:09:40.860
criminal law. And they were like, we're going

00:09:40.860 --> 00:09:42.620
to make you the U .S. attorney for the Southern

00:09:42.620 --> 00:09:45.299
District of Virginia and you'll prosecute James

00:09:45.299 --> 00:09:48.720
Comey, somebody who had no idea how to prosecute

00:09:48.720 --> 00:09:52.159
a criminal case. Right. Because she'd never done

00:09:52.159 --> 00:09:58.320
it in her life. OK. She represented insurance

00:09:58.320 --> 00:10:01.879
companies against lawsuits filed by homeowners.

00:10:04.279 --> 00:10:13.240
Okay? She's a doofus, right? And yesterday, the

00:10:13.240 --> 00:10:15.460
judge basically questioned her left, right, and

00:10:15.460 --> 00:10:18.080
center. He's like, what are you doing? And it's

00:10:18.080 --> 00:10:20.940
all stuff that anybody who was a longtime prosecutor

00:10:20.940 --> 00:10:25.639
would know not to do, but she doesn't know, right?

00:10:27.039 --> 00:10:29.679
And yeah, it was somebody said to my cousin Vinny,

00:10:29.779 --> 00:10:33.259
right? It's worse than my cousin Vinny. Okay.

00:10:33.360 --> 00:10:35.820
Well, I mean, I love that movie. Also, one of

00:10:35.820 --> 00:10:38.580
the last times somebody won an Oscar for a comedy

00:10:38.580 --> 00:10:41.240
was Marissa Tomei in that movie. She won a best.

00:10:41.240 --> 00:10:43.379
Really? Yeah. Marissa Tomei won a best supporting

00:10:43.379 --> 00:10:46.460
actress role Oscar for her role in My Cousin

00:10:46.460 --> 00:10:49.580
Vinny. Cool. I did not know that. And her role

00:10:49.580 --> 00:10:51.840
was great. Wasn't she awesome in that movie?

00:10:52.960 --> 00:10:58.889
Yeah. Yeah. Again, it's the fascism of morons,

00:10:58.889 --> 00:11:04.370
right? The lucky part, I guess, the upside is

00:11:04.370 --> 00:11:07.549
that they're having a hard time with their fascism

00:11:07.549 --> 00:11:12.769
because they don't know how to do it right. So

00:11:12.769 --> 00:11:19.490
that's. Somebody in the YouTube chat, this administration

00:11:19.490 --> 00:11:25.639
is the Roblox version of the Third Reich. It's

00:11:25.639 --> 00:11:28.740
true and meanwhile, this is all set to the backdrop

00:11:28.740 --> 00:11:32.200
of the major conservative Organizations like

00:11:32.200 --> 00:11:34.279
the Heritage Foundation and stuff like that are

00:11:34.279 --> 00:11:36.000
literally tearing themselves to pieces right

00:11:36.000 --> 00:11:38.340
now Members of the heritage boards who've been

00:11:38.340 --> 00:11:40.580
there for 30 years stalwart members of the conservative

00:11:40.580 --> 00:11:43.779
movement are leaving they don't know where they're

00:11:43.779 --> 00:11:51.179
going, right and They just don't they don't know

00:11:51.179 --> 00:11:57.080
what to do what you got good for us You know,

00:11:57.240 --> 00:11:59.399
I mean you have any thoughts further thoughts

00:11:59.399 --> 00:12:04.960
on this one Just like trying to answer a chat

00:12:04.960 --> 00:12:12.580
question so the connection is Vinny and The movie

00:12:12.580 --> 00:12:16.700
he doesn't know what to do. So he's like stumbling

00:12:16.700 --> 00:12:19.720
through the case and the judge has to like keep

00:12:19.720 --> 00:12:23.879
Correcting him kind of guiding him very frustrated

00:12:23.879 --> 00:12:27.039
at this lawyer who very clearly is like out of

00:12:27.039 --> 00:12:29.519
his depth and doesn't know what to do. That's

00:12:29.519 --> 00:12:37.259
kind of the connection. It's 1992. So it's kind

00:12:37.259 --> 00:12:39.960
of an old movie, but it's funny. It's a great

00:12:39.960 --> 00:12:44.700
movie. It really is. It's a phenomenal movie.

00:12:46.340 --> 00:12:50.570
Yeah. So I mean, This is what's going on. I don't

00:12:50.570 --> 00:12:52.009
know how many people have forgotten about the

00:12:52.009 --> 00:12:53.750
first administration. The first administration

00:12:53.750 --> 00:12:56.169
was like this. Every day I would get up, I would

00:12:56.169 --> 00:12:57.809
turn on Twitter and be like, what idiot thing

00:12:57.809 --> 00:13:00.970
did our president say today? Right? It was every

00:13:00.970 --> 00:13:05.769
day. Right? Yeah. You know, the other problem

00:13:05.769 --> 00:13:07.169
that they're having with the Comey prosecution

00:13:07.169 --> 00:13:10.429
is Comey's lawyers who are smart are going, hey,

00:13:10.450 --> 00:13:12.269
this is malicious and vindictive prosecution.

00:13:12.509 --> 00:13:14.470
They're only doing this because the president

00:13:14.470 --> 00:13:17.549
told them to order them to. And that's illegal.

00:13:17.740 --> 00:13:20.820
Toss the case out. Right. And the problem is,

00:13:20.879 --> 00:13:22.360
is that the government is having a hard time

00:13:22.360 --> 00:13:25.899
arguing. Now, when they fired the other prosecutor

00:13:25.899 --> 00:13:28.100
and Trump's been on his truth social multiple

00:13:28.100 --> 00:13:33.399
times, we like prosecute Comey. Right. So they're

00:13:33.399 --> 00:13:42.980
they're screwed. It's it's dumb. Yeah. Yeah.

00:13:43.440 --> 00:13:47.590
Yeah. His tariff thing is gonna get tossed out

00:13:47.590 --> 00:13:50.789
of court, right? I think everybody kind of sees

00:13:50.789 --> 00:13:53.629
that coming, right? They're already, if you've

00:13:53.629 --> 00:13:55.649
noticed, they've very quietly been backing off

00:13:55.649 --> 00:13:57.769
tariffs the last week. They've been lowering

00:13:57.769 --> 00:13:59.629
a bunch, lowering a bunch, lowering a bunch.

00:14:00.970 --> 00:14:02.909
And I think they know that their whole tariff

00:14:02.909 --> 00:14:04.649
regime is about to get tossed out on its head,

00:14:05.070 --> 00:14:12.830
right? Again, it's dumb. It's just dumb. They

00:14:12.830 --> 00:14:17.629
don't know how to fascism right. So I mean, that's

00:14:17.629 --> 00:14:20.450
it. Anyway, let us know what you think in the

00:14:20.450 --> 00:14:21.529
