00:00Y'all will not believe what it is that I have to show you from Senator John Thune going scorched

00:06earth against the Democrats to, uh, uh, John Fetterman, basically cashing his cashing in

00:14his ticket to be primary officially away from the Democrat party to even Hakeem Jeffries getting

00:23called out on CNN. Plus I got some more clips as well. We got a pack. We got a packed

00:27episode

00:27today. So make sure you guys stick around at the beginning though. I want to dive into what John

00:33Fetterman has had to say, and it's quite a lot and you're not going to want to miss this. So

00:38with that being said, hit that like button and let's dive in. So what are you hearing back home

00:46about snap expiring on Saturday? I'm saying that I will witness it firsthand. My wife, Giselle,

00:54she develops, uh, the free store in our community and it, it distributes food three times a week and

01:01her lines have already got longer. And now I will encounter people that have no snap benefits

01:10starting on Saturday and I don't have an explanation for them. All I could say is I'm sorry. It's an

01:17absolute failure what occurred here, uh, for the last month. And now things are really going to land

01:24and imagine being a parent with a couple of kids and how you're going to fill their refrigerator,

01:33uh, and pack their lunches and get on with their lives when the things that they've depended on

01:39now is gone because we, we can't even agree to just open things up. For a Democrat, you know,

01:45we're not allowed to just open this up. I mean, then our party has bigger problems than I thought

01:51we might have already. It's like, that's not controversial. Pay everybody. And you have

01:57our workers here borrowed over a third of a billion dollars to pay their own bills.

02:05Like, it's, it's, it's a failure. And like I said, to all of the viewers, I'm apologizing that, that,

02:13um, we, we can't even get our shit together and just open up our government.

02:19Schumer said this gets better politically every day for Democrats. What do you say to that?

02:24Yeah. Well, ask, ask the hungry people on Saturday, you know, it's like, that's the thing,

02:30you know, Americans are not leveraged. This is not, this is not some shitty game show about who's

02:37winning or whatever. It's just like, like we have to be better than this and just open this up.

02:43And I do, you know, talk to any number of Republicans who, they agree that we have this

02:50conversation about extending these tax credits.

02:56Bro, that person in the background absolutely threw me off. But yeah, you heard what Senator

03:02Fetterman had to say there. And let me tell y'all something, like I said, he is definitely

03:07cashing a ticket to be primaried by his own party, but he had more to say on CNN. Check it

03:12out.

03:13Never going to change my, my party, but, but it clearly, um, we've lost the argument.

03:18And now right now, I think it's entirely appropriate to really be honest and just figure out

03:24why exactly have we effectively lost two out of the last three cycles. And a lot of the things

03:29we've really kind of, um, uh, really lost our, our connection with, uh, American voters in ways.

03:36And I think we can't just be, well, Trump is always wrong or, or that we're going to set the

03:42country on fire or whatever. That's just not true either, of course. But, you know, when I represent

03:48a state like Pennsylvania, that keeps you honest and you always can't forget that a lot of Americans

03:54happen to disagree with you. That does not mean that they are fascists or now they want to shred

04:00the constitution. But when you hear some Democrats saying Trump is acting like an autocrat.

04:06Yeah, no, that's the thing. I, if you actually compare him to an actual autocrat, that is not

04:11just that. Now, last night, for example, people were, were, were complaining, they were protesting

04:18about, oh, that's the Hitler, Hitler thing. You just don't ever, ever compare anyone to Hitler

04:23and those kinds of extreme things. Now look what happened to Charlie Kirk. I mean, you know,

04:28the man was shot. Now we have to turn the temperature down. It's like, we can't compare

04:33people to these kinds of figures in history. And this is not an autocrat. This is a product

04:39of a democratic election. So you don't think that Trump is at all shattering any of the norms

04:44of democracy in any way? I'm saying he's definitely different, but that's what America voted for.

04:49Again, I don't agree with many of these things, but that does not make him an autocratic.

04:53But one of the things that I hear from Democrats a lot saying the reason why voters may not like

04:59Democrats is because they don't fight hard enough. Democrats should be fighting harder. What do

05:03you say to folks who say that? What exactly, what exactly is fighting? What is fighting? You know,

05:07delay more votes or just vote every no on everything or saying, well, if they're doing X, well,

05:13then that mean it's wrong. That kind of a thing. It's like, what exactly is, is, is, is fighting?

05:17I'll give you an example. It could be shutting the government down. Like some Democrats say,

05:21if this happens, it'll be Trump's fault. That's, that's not fighting. That's mutilating

05:26our nation. If you vote to shut our government down, you are going to harm millions of Americans.

05:32And why would you do this? Where's our leverage? It was wrong. It was wrong for the, for the

05:38Republicans to do that. Absolutely. That's true. It was wrong for the Republicans to do that. It would

05:44just be wrong for us, for, for those things. Bigger picture, has your party shifted or have

05:49you shifted ideologically? My party is acting in a way they have forgotten. They have forgotten one

05:55of the reasons why we lost in 2024. Some of the most extreme things were weaponized against that. And

06:03now some people think now we have to double down on those things or we must become more progressive

06:08or more extreme. That's absolutely just not, that's absolutely not true. Listen,

06:15Hey, yo, John Fetterman. Hey, he cooking. He's cooking. He's cooking. I agree with him. His party

06:25doubling down on the things that got him that lost is actually a terrible idea. If only his party would

06:29just listen, John Fetterman. No, actually he shouldn't be. No, no, no, he can't be.

06:37Nope. If his party would listen to him, they'd actually be a little more successful. That's for

06:41sure. I will say that. I will say that. Now I do want to play this clip of Senator Mark

06:49Kelly,

06:49Democrat Senator Mark Kelly being confronted on CNBC because the narrative is falling. Ladies and

06:56gentlemen, they can't hold onto this much longer. Check it out. And only one person in the democratic

07:01party has broken with the ranks. It's like, I don't understand it. It hasn't been working

07:06well for Democrats. Joe, this is pretty simple. The government does not have to be shut down.

07:12It doesn't have to be shut down. We can, we can fix this here in a matter of just a

07:17couple days.

07:19I mean, this could, this could be easily solved by sitting down at the table. To get past 60,

07:26you need some Democrats to reopen the, that's what's going to have to happen. Senator, you close

07:30the government down because you're, you want 1.5 trillion for all these different things that

07:36Schumer wants that it's obvious to everyone. Although, you know, maybe you can convince the

07:40public that it's the Republicans, but it's not. And only one, I love how they're getting called out

07:49on their BS. Although you can, you can try to convince the public that, you know, it's the Republicans.

07:53You know what I mean? I love it. I love it. I love it. I thought I had this other

07:58tab pulled up.

07:59Maybe I'll lose it. Oh no. My goodness. Oh wait, there it is. There it is. I just, I get

08:08so

08:09unorganized sometimes when I'm putting these videos together. I apologize. Ladies and gentlemen,

08:13I apologize. It is literally just me. I don't have like a crew of people or anything like that.

08:19It is just me. All right. So when things get a little messed up, all right, I apologize. All

08:25right. I'm just going to apologize in advance because there's going to come a day where I'm

08:29going to completely mess up another video. Okay. It's just going to happen. And I'm just going to

08:37apologize in advance. Now, moving on, I want to play this other clip of this Democrat representative.

08:48I'm sorry. This is just absolutely hilarious, man. Y'all got to listen to this. Y'all have to

08:53listen to this. This is a representative, Democrat representative Janelle Bynum. Okay. Check it out.

08:59They did have a clean CR vote on September 19th in the house. Did you vote for it?

09:06I disagree with your characterization and want to make sure that we're very clear about

09:11what Republicans have been doing. Any bill that they've put forth, they've always had some extra

09:16stuff to it. There's always been a poison pill to it. So I disagree with your characterization.

09:21What were the poison pills of the clean CR or the continuing resolution? You say it's not clean

09:26that was voted on in the house in mid-September.

09:32Here's what's important. I think what you're trying to do

09:35is shift the responsibility to Democrats. They did have a clean CR.

09:43Now you see why I was laughing.

09:50Now you see why I was laughing. Well, see, you know, Republicans, I don't agree that it was a clean

09:56CR. They, they added in some type of poison pill every time they took it off for a vote. Oh,

10:01okay. C-SPAN reporter. Um, so what, what was the poison pill?

10:09Well, well, see, you're trying to blame this on the Democrats, but really it's the Republicans.

10:17Got called completely out on her BS nonsense. She couldn't even come up with no clean answer.

10:25Oh my goodness, bro. Oh my goodness. Oh geez. Oh geez. Now I want to play this clip from CNN

10:35with Hakeem Jeffries, Hakeem, um, Timu Obama, discount Obama, uh, uh, uh, uh, wannabe Obama

10:45with, uh, Caitlin Collins. Okay. Uh, because he absolutely gets called out a little bit here and

10:52I'm, I'm kind of surprised because it's actually coming from Caitlin Collins and you know, the CNN

10:57network. So check it out here.

11:01You said that Mike Johnson's not willing to, to sit down and have a conversation. Y'all did have

11:05a phone conversation. I believe you said earlier today, who, who, contradicting himself. Oh, Mike

11:11Johnson's not willing to sit down and have a conversation, but we, we, we did kind of sit

11:15down and have a conversation. He called me. Johnson's not willing to, to sit down and have

11:19a conversation. Y'all did have a phone conversation. I believe you said earlier today, who, who initiated

11:24that call? Was that you or was that Speaker Johnson? It was a call from Mike Johnson. It was very

11:29brief uh and it wasn't a substantive discussion in terms of finding a path forward but was he

11:36calling to talk about the government shutdown i mean you can say that that was in the ballpark

11:41but you know it was a private conversation that will remain private however what do you mean by

11:47that oh well what was it was it a conversation to talk about open up the government well well

11:52you could say that it was in the ballpark you see how they try to like skirt around and dance

11:57around

11:57you know part but you know it was a private conversation that will remain private however

12:03nothing meaningful came out of it again because donald trump has not given mike johnson permission

12:10to enter into a bipartisan negotiation caitlin i mean house republicans have been literally on

12:17vacation for the last five weeks they've canceled votes five consecutive weeks in a row they are

12:23uninterested in doing anything other than jamming their partisan republican spending bill down the

12:29throats of the american people and what he won't tell you also is that um house republicans can go

12:36on vacation because they already passed the continuing resolution it's in the senate now

12:42i so despise democrats bro see they they they they try to use this type of stuff because most people

12:50don't really understand right and i get it i'm still kind of new to politics i don't i don't

12:55understand everything right but i do got some darn common sense at least i would hope so right i i

13:01assume

13:01i have some common sense right um but this is what they do the the and he's not the only

13:08one only

13:08democrat that has done this there's another democrat as well and i think i showed you guys that clip

13:12yesterday or the day before yesterday they'll say well you see see um house republicans they they

13:18aren't even here they're on vacation but what they're failing to tell you is that they've already

13:22done their job they've already passed the clean continuing resolution and have sent it to the

13:29senate with john thune where they need 60 votes because of the filibuster which is why it's stuck

13:34still in the senate it's already passed the house why do people in why do republicans in the house need

13:40to be there y'all shut down the government what are they going to be possibly doing

13:45twiddling their thumbs

13:49what do y'all want to do try to try to boost some of them up so you can try

13:53to swing them onto your

13:55side i i i don't know like what i'm confused mike johnson did the right thing hey send everybody

14:01packing get on up out of here we already did our job go home we'll be back as soon as

14:05all of this is

14:06over with i would have done the same thing unless there's something i'm missing about this this entire

14:12equation if i'm in mike johnson's shoes right as speaker of the house as republicans once we

14:20pass the clean cr and i see it gets it's gotten stuck in the senate after two votes i'm sending

14:27i'm sending everybody home you you democrats are not going to have the opportunity to try to sway

14:34any republicans onto your side it's not happening i'm sending them home go on home we'll be back

14:39once this is all over simple but democrats are out here trying to lie because they know most people

14:47don't really pay attention to politics or they kind of dabble in the ear there kind of casually right

14:52because people have lives and that's understandable we got bills to pay and all this other stuff right

14:57so paying attention to politics is all is a is a whole job in and of its own right so

15:04most people

15:05are just going to hear well republicans aren't there so why are republicans there it's republicans

15:11fault republicans don't want to do anything well republicans already passed in the house you know

15:15what i mean so i just had to call that out because i i just hate when democrats sit here

15:19and blatantly

15:19lie about stuff like that it's just absolutely disgusting but check it out as democrats we've

15:25made clear we will not support a partisan republican spending bill that continues to gut the health

15:31care of the american people period full stop and i love how he said republicans are trying to ram

15:37down the throat a spending bill but uh they always scream about democracy democracy democracy although

15:44i know we live in a constitutional republic i just want to say that for anybody that's going to comment

15:48that i'm saying what democrats say they always scream democracy democracy democracy well um last time i

15:53checked um we elected um we elected trump to run this country not democrats we elected trump we gave the

16:03senate majority to republicans and we gave the house majority to republicans so you would think that

16:09the people who love democracy democracy democracy people have to vote you would think that those same

16:15people would actually hear that and see that and allow the people's choice right republicans and uncle

16:23trump to make the choices for this country but that's not the case with these democrats they're hypocrites

16:29they're the ones who actually want to be in control they're the ones who actually want to be the

16:34dictators they're the ones who actually want to run this country with an iron fist they're the ones

16:41and they're proving it now we did not elect them to run this country they had an opportunity four years

16:48ago to do so we elected a whole new team and we did it across the board trump didn't just

16:54win a couple

16:55battleground states no he won every single one all seven and he won the popular vote which a republican

17:00hasn't done in over two decades and like i said before we gave him the house and we gave him

17:06the senate

17:06so that he is able to pass anything and everything that he wanted to pass and yet democrats are still

17:12oh no we can't do that we can't do that trump's a king he's a dictator no you want to

17:18be the king

17:18you want to be the dictator because now you're going against what we voted for we voted for this

17:26this is what we stood in line for to vote for this is what we wanted you always claim to

17:32oh we're the

17:33party of the people no you're not because if you were you would get out of the way and allow

17:37trump

17:37to run this country the same way that we voted for i'm just saying i i i just had to

17:44say that

17:44i had to say that y'all can let me know in the comments if you agree and i'm gonna

17:48i'm gonna let

17:48you guys get out of here with this clip of john thune uh going scorched earth against the democrats

17:53check it out and we've tried to do that 13 times and you voted no 13 times

18:01this isn't a political game these are real people's lives that we're talking about

18:06and you all just figured out 29 days in that oh there might be some consequences

18:12there are people running out of money yeah we're 29 days in and they've done their best to make sure

18:19that a lot of these programs are funded but at some point the government runs out of money

18:2713 times people over here voted to fund snap 13 times they voted to fund wick

18:37my aching back

18:41finally realize this thing has consequences

18:44well you know what what democrats are doing here

18:53they're making plans

18:56to keep the shutdown going

19:01yeah that is the rumor that i am hearing

19:06thune isn't the only person that i've heard that from democrats are making plans right now

19:12to continue this shutdown somehow some kind of way

19:17and so what uncle trump has done is he said let's go with the nuclear option it is time to

19:25press

19:26the big red button not literally to send the actual nukes okay i just want to make that clear before

19:33anybody's like whoa whoa my goodness trump has said let's go with the nuclear option it's time to hit

19:41the proverbial button and get this thing over with check it out

19:46because of the fact that democrats have gone stone cold crazy the choice is clear

19:51initiate the nuclear option get rid of the filibuster and make america great again

19:57now by getting rid of the filibuster republicans can simply pass a cr with just a simple majority vote

20:04which we do have the majority in the senate i believe we have 53 or 54

20:08uh republican senators

20:11so we can easily pass the cr by getting rid of the filibuster

20:16and uncle trump is saying hey it's time it's time it's time to hit the button

20:19time to hit the button and

20:22i think that is an absolutely nuclear option

20:26for the democrat party

20:29that is the worst case scenario for the democrat party

20:33one because now the filibuster is over so

20:35senate republicans can just pass anything and everything with just a simple majority

20:39but then also the backlash that could possibly come from this

20:45will probably be enormous

20:47with the party hemorrhaging voters the way that the democrat party is hemorrhaging voters

20:51um they can't afford to lose even more people

20:54and i've talked about the numbers before they've lost like 1.2 or 1.3 million voters already this year

21:01that was up to like last month

21:02we we didn't count this month

21:04that and that that's just this year

21:06registered voters they've lost like 1.3 million voters

21:10okay

21:111.3 million

21:13which is absolutely bonkers

21:15absolutely bonkers

21:17after an election that they lost

21:19they've continued to lose even more people

21:22which is just crazy

21:24crazy

21:24uh and this would probably initiate

21:27another mass exodus

21:29from the democrat party

21:31i'm not saying all the folks will come over to the republican party

21:34but what i am saying

21:35is that they will be leaving the democrat party though

21:39if they see republicans are doing anything and everything they possibly can

21:44to make sure that this government is open

21:45uh regardless of what the democrat party is doing

21:49oh yeah

21:49you you can bet your bottom dollar

21:52that people are

21:53even more people are going to leave the democrat party

21:56and listen

21:58i'm backing uncle trump on this one

22:00i'm backing him

22:01would i like to see this continue a little bit longer

22:04so that we can you know

22:07legally fire some government employees

22:09yeah i would

22:09and that that would take 60 days

22:11i believe we're at 30

22:13or 31 right now

22:14so we'd have a whole nother month of this

22:17which

22:19honestly i think that's way too long

22:21okay

22:22i don't think we would make it quite that long

22:25right

22:25plus i don't know what the democrats would have planned within that

22:29that

22:29i don't trust them

22:31okay

22:31i don't trust them

22:32they're snakes

22:32i keep the grass cut low so i can see them

22:34but eventually the grass starts to grow back

22:37you know what i mean

22:37so

22:38while i can see them

22:40i'd rather go with the nuclear officer now

22:42and just absolutely decimate

22:44um

22:45their voter registration base

22:47have

22:48have voters leaving in mass once again

22:53but what do y'all think
