Pardon The Insurrection

Vance: Diet Dew's Got Us Screwed

Pardon The Insurrection Episode 203

Is our democracy at risk from bizarre political maneuvers and questionable characters? In this engaging episode, we dissect the strange and often bewildering world of contemporary politics. Starting with the 2016 election's third-party candidates, we trace their influence on the 2024 race, including the unconventional tactics of RFK Jr. Prepare for some laughs as we recount JD Vance's peculiar comments about Diet Mountain Dew and other odd behaviors from his own book. We also examine how societal views on sexual proclivities intersect with political rhetoric, putting Vance's viability under the spotlight.

Next, we scrutinize the contradictory rhetoric from a well-known political figure, focusing on his interactions with his Christian base and his eyebrow-raising appearances at cryptocurrency events. We tackle the alarming promises regarding voting and election integrity as we edge closer to the 2024 election. With potential threats to our democratic process, including the proposition of federal immunity for police officers, this section underscores the critical importance of voter participation. 

Lastly, staying vigilant is crucial. From voter deregistration tactics to the influence of social media, we explore the myriad ways our electoral process could be compromised. We discuss practical steps to ensure a fair election, including re-registering to vote and diversifying social media presence. Wrapping up, we emphasize the significance of electing the first black woman as President of the United States, highlighting the role of voter turnout in achieving this historic milestone. Join us for a podcast episode that promises to both inform and entertain with its exploration of the weird and wonderful world of politics.

Speaker 1:

hey, this is d night. This is carol. This is ty, carol. I think you were talking about, um, pretty lady. You're talking about the role that, like a third party candidate, played in in 2016 and how that was detrimental. Uh, let's, let's take a moment, a moment here and see what's going on.

Speaker 2:

Do you want to talk about old brain worms? Oh God.

Speaker 3:

How do you know? Let's see what he was up to. We have to.

Speaker 1:

Let's see what he was up to over the course of the past week upon the announcement that Harris would be running in Biden's stead. That was RFKJ with the Hawk to a girl. That was the Hawk to a girl. That was the Hawk to a girl.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, I just thought it was just a cute little blonde girl and I thought why does he keep hugging her?

Speaker 2:

why are they know how he gets down cheryl? Where is he?

Speaker 1:

uh, you know, I don't even remember that was. But you know, obviously harris is out here with superstars like megan the stallion, rfk jr is out here with the hog to a girl, so he's, he's really got his campaign up and running, oh boy, yeah doesn't?

Speaker 2:

she know that these guys hate blowjobs?

Speaker 1:

that's why they keep mocking women who perform them uh, I don't know like I'm particularly fond of them. But you know, given the republicans are out here on a tear ranting against childless women, you know, one of the easiest ways to avoid having children while still engaging in sexual activity is the good old.

Speaker 2:

Anyway, I'm just saying they spend a lot of time shaming women for it. For guys who would like to receive, they really do. Yeah, I never say the message is clear.

Speaker 1:

You know, guys who shame don't want any, so don't know I'm all of you women out there listening to this podcast. If that's how you get down, I rock with you. I support that wholeheartedly. You know however many you need to take down to feel satisfied in that regard yes, yes, yes, that D likes blowjobs hey, women can like blowjobs too, and I return the favor okay, okay.

Speaker 2:

And these single ladies?

Speaker 1:

so back to the Trump campaign. Now that they've the media stopped obsessing over biden's age, they actually have to cover, like the candidates, in the campaign that they're running, and it appears as though uh, I, it seems as though the media has discovered the fact that, you know, it's their biggest issue. Apart from that, their other biggest issue that we've all been aware of for years at this point is that the Republican Party is full of fucking.

Speaker 2:

Just in the past few days Democrats have kind of organically settled on a new attack line against Donald Trump and JD Vance.

Speaker 3:

Basically, these guys are just plain weird.

Speaker 4:

You know there's something wrong with people when they talk about freedom freedom to be in your bedroom, freedom to be in your exam room, freedom to tell your kids what they can read.

Speaker 1:

That stuff is weird, they come across weird, they seem obsessed with this.

Speaker 3:

We're using this fake living room to talk to you about a super weird idea from JD Vance.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's not.

Speaker 3:

I mean it's quite weird, but what was weird was him joking about racism today and then talking about Diet Mountain Dew. Who drinks Diet Mountain Dew On the other side.

Speaker 4:

They're just weird. I mean, they really are.

Speaker 3:

Some of what he and his running mate are saying. Well, it's just plain weird what he and his running mate are saying.

Speaker 2:

Well, it's just plain weird.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, they're having a rough time with it.

Speaker 2:

Republicans are even Manchin was in on it, or he just thinks JD Vance is weird.

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah, like never did I imagine ever that Joe Manchin would stay on message. That is an incredible development. Yeah, the whole Die. Mountain Dew thing that was extraordinarily strange where JD Vance was saying you know, I'm drinking, I had a Die Mountain Dew earlier.

Speaker 3:

I don't see how people haven't talked about him using hot dogs as dildos. I don't know. Someone said that was on page 21 of his book. I have not personally read it.

Speaker 1:

I haven't read his book either.

Speaker 3:

He said that he got drunk and he woke up with one of those M&M mini containers halfway up his ass. He doesn't know how it got there, but it wasn't as comfortable as the hot dogs they usually use.

Speaker 2:

Just like with blowjobs, I'm in support of people enjoying their sexual proclivities in whichever fashion they choose I think you should do it in a safe manner that doesn't risk getting pieces of of hot dogs stuck. I mean, there are worse things, I guess but I do have um m&ms I I do have some audible credit.

Speaker 3:

I got like 20 audible credits because I always forget. And then the next thing I tell them goes to everyone I feel like I need to read page 21 for real and see for myself.

Speaker 2:

Maybe I bet it's not true.

Speaker 1:

I would just say if you're going to eat a hot dog, it's got to come out the other end. One way or the other, he just or the other. So he just took the more expedient route of sticking.

Speaker 3:

If you're going to eat it.

Speaker 2:

If you're going to eat a hot dog, you might as well put it in your ass.

Speaker 1:

You probably shouldn't put it in your ass before you eat it, just for sanity.

Speaker 3:

I think you absorb nutrition or become acid. It should probably be frozen.

Speaker 1:

All right, we nutrition or become I said anything, it should probably be frozen. All right, we're done with that part of the conversation. So I don't know who got the viral meme started of JD Vann's fucking furniture, but the fact that, like you heard that and and no one doubted its veracity, says a lot about his viability as a candidate and the dolphin thing.

Speaker 1:

Well, that he did on his own. I don't know why he was looking up dolphin sex, but apparently he was questioning it, uh, and just in posting about it on the internet again, like one of those things where, if he was properly vetted, people would have seen this shit and be like hell. No, we ain't picking this dude, but here they are.

Speaker 3:

So that was a self-owned. The dolphin thing.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, he did that to himself yeah, and then you know his silicon valley days. Uh, as an investor, he was investing in this company.

Speaker 1:

That was like burning monkey testicles, just a bunch of strange I saw that just a bunch of strength like and that's the issue again that I was talking about with tony michaels the other day is like there's so much weird shit in the party. If the media could actually just like do their fucking jobs and report on it and hone in on how strange all this shit is, it would be over for the trump campaign. And if this weird shit sticks, it's a wrap. It is, it is over the amount of weird shit.

Speaker 3:

It's not like, oh my god, like a one-off or a two-off, it's like they all are weird and there's so much weird stuff, like all the time weird stuff yeah, that's been going on like rudy giuliani with um borad's assistant.

Speaker 1:

It was just some, some creepy shit man. Um you know, we've got the, the mom, the big bitches for bigotry All the threesome. Yeah, they're out there milf hunting and shit. So much extraordinarily weird stuff. All the creepy pedophiles that are posing in pictures with Trump who eventually get brought up on charges it's endless weird shit. We got those videos of Trump with Epstein so extraordinarily strange. All the weird shit he does with his daughter. That picture of him handing his kids off to Epstein to play just endless.

Speaker 3:

Did you see the? And, of course, the? You know the. I don't know if it was American Muckrakers, though, suppose it, I was trying to see if it was real or not. The email between epstein and the kung fu email, or the judo, the whatever if him and gilane met up for judo, or their kung fu.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that was weird, like I don't know. Obviously they weren't trump's not going to no fucking judo class, so that's probably like code for no. Well, that was elon. Well, I mean, he's going to no fucking judo class.

Speaker 3:

So that's probably like code for no. Well, that was.

Speaker 1:

Elon. Well, I don't think he's going to no judo class either. But you know what? I take that back, you're right.

Speaker 3:

I'm sorry, elon, but still, I'm like with the little smiley face.

Speaker 1:

Why are you like in such a like a comfortable relationship with a group of pedophiles? It's extraordinarily strange. And look, elon's been weird for a long time, like obviously, you know, a decade ago, while he was a public figure, like he wasn't vocal in this regard. I knew, but I knew. The minute I knew something was up is when those kids got trapped in that cave in europe and he was calling the engineers pedophiles and I was like that's some weird right-wing shit. No one like why are you? And then he just you know, has consistently gone further into the right-wing rabbit hole. He's clearly out there for Trump.

Speaker 2:

Well, he's also just like an edgelord who needs to be lauded with, you know.

Speaker 4:

And the center of the constant appreciation.

Speaker 2:

So the people who found his, his, stupid you know, pushing the envelope stuff to be enticing were the right wing idiots. They were like oh, you called them pedophiles. That's hilarious.

Speaker 1:

Yep, he's a chain, if it came to life and made billions of dollars. Yep, he's 8chan if it came to life and made billions of dollars. So, yes, let's move on to what the Trump campaign is promising for its voters in the future. What a second Trump administration would be like? Basically, the Trump campaign platform.

Speaker 4:

At this point, and again, christians, get out and vote. Just this time you won't have to do it anymore. Four more years. You know what. It'll be fixed. It'll be fine. You won't have to vote anymore. My beautiful Christians, I love you, christians, I'm a Christian, I love you. Get out. You got to get out and vote. In four years you don't have to vote again. We'll have it fixed so good. You're not going to have to vote.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

He would have meant anything.

Speaker 1:

Ty, you got to unmute your mic.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, ty's muted, so I will talk. Ha ha, there we go, huzzah. He says what he means, and that's what he.

Speaker 3:

It was, no, but the way he was addressing them is weird. Okay, hello, my Christians, I love my Christians, my Christians, it was like my African-Americans.

Speaker 1:

Basically his Christians are his name. Well, it was really also really weird, cause that was it like a cryptocurrency conference here in Tennessee. No, that was the turning point.

Speaker 3:

Oh, it was really also really weird, because that was it like a cryptocurrency conference here in Tennessee.

Speaker 1:

No, that was the turning point. Oh, that was the.

Speaker 3:

Bitcoin conference. That was some other weird shit. Where he said that he was going to take Bitcoin and he was going to stockpile it.

Speaker 1:

That's, that's right. No, so what was weird about that video apart from him just like trying to rally up the Christian base, I guess was first of all that part where he said I'm not a Christian.

Speaker 4:

Yeah.

Speaker 3:

I love you, Christian. I'm not a Christian.

Speaker 1:

If you let him freestyle, he really does tell you his exact thoughts.

Speaker 3:

He tells on himself all the freaking time and they're like're like. You know, I don't care as long as you do stuff.

Speaker 2:

You know, you know whether you're in that we saw his ingram interview where she gave him like 10 chances to be to backtrack and he just talked and talked and hardly backtracked, but he's like I just met christians. Christians don't vote, they don't vote. I'm like what, that's the dumbest we did bury the lead there.

Speaker 1:

He said if, if you vote for him in 2024, you'll never have to vote again. Basically and a lot of people on social media and the media in general are trying to spin that in terms of well, he meant this and he meant that. No, he meant exactly what he fucking said why don't you want?

Speaker 2:

a candidate who can express themselves properly.

Speaker 3:

Communication is a huge part of how I know that's's BS is how many times has he said you don't even have to vote? He has said that multiple times at rallies and he's told them to just stay home. They don't have to worry about voting, and that's something we don't need the votes.

Speaker 1:

We've got all the votes.

Speaker 3:

Yes, exactly.

Speaker 1:

We got all the votes we need in.

Speaker 3:

Russia votes.

Speaker 1:

Yes, exactly, we got all the votes we need in Russia.

Speaker 1:

Now look, obviously we saw how they tried to cheat after the 2020 election, where they lost, and that culminated in an attack on the Capitol, where they tried to present fake electors certificates as legitimate.

Speaker 1:

And obviously, when that plan failed, I'm sure plan B was to plot on how to steal the 2024 election, and I'm sure they got something in the works. Who knows what it is, but from what I understand, currently one of the plans is so generally, in order for a state to certify its election, you have to have all of the precincts certify their individual vote tallies and there are a lot of Republican, republican operatives that are in charge of some of these precincts and if they refuse to certify the vote tallies in their precinct, that could potentially keep states from certifying their election as a whole, keep states from certifying their election as a whole, and if you get enough swing states on board with that, where no one gets to 270 in terms of the Electoral College, then the election, from what I understand, will likely go to the House of Representatives, and Republicans currently have a majority, so it can be touch and go in November.

Speaker 2:

But let's vote as hard as we can, because the congressional term starts January 5th and the certification is the 6th.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, the plan definitely has to be voting such overwhelming numbers that we take over the House, regardless of what happens in some of these states with Republican operatives at work, so that, regardless of whatever is going to sign off on a fraudulent election. So at least we have that. But just keep that in mind that it's more important than ever for you to get as many people as possible to vote. And you know, obviously I was just like near 100% participation in America, if possible. I know that's unrealistic, but if that were the case and Republicans still somehow won, I mean, while it would doom our country, at least I would know that. You know we gave it our best shot. Also, more from the Trump campaign platform.

Speaker 4:

It just somehow it just only gets worse from there that we're going to give immunity to police so they can do their job. I'm giving federal immunity to police officers so they can do their job yeah, trump's going to create his own brown shirts pretty much.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I don't need immunity to do my job. Well, look yeah.

Speaker 1:

Trump's going to create his own brown shirts.

Speaker 2:

Pretty much. Yeah, I don't need immunity to do my job.

Speaker 1:

Well, look, there's a lot of right wing nut jobs in law enforcement white supremacists, neo-Nazis and such all over the country, and I can only imagine what they would do with practically unlimited immunity to do whatever they want.

Speaker 3:

I mean, we just saw the horrific shooting of Sonia Harris. Pretty much what they did when they had it before.

Speaker 1:

Sonia Massey. I apologize for getting that name wrong. Harris is on my mind, if you haven't noticed. I've been thinking about her every day this week. That's my baby. Not pretty much what they did before. It's going to be a lot worse. At this point, at least there's the potential of consequences for extreme outrageous behavior on behalf of local police departments. I mean, obviously, they probably get away with more than we could ever imagine imagined, but in this regard, if the police are basically given unlimited immunity to act however they see fit while they're on the clock, there are a lot of people who will sign up to basically do trump's trump's version of the purge no, a hundred percent, one hundred percent.

Speaker 1:

And look, I don't want to live in the fucking Purge. It's difficult enough watching that shit as a movie. I don't want to live it.

Speaker 3:

I couldn't. I couldn't watch, I don't know. It was just too much I've never seen.

Speaker 2:

just watching the trailers was enough for me this we want all our listeners to tweet out what they plan to do when they're going to donate or volunteer for the Harris campaign. And the best, the five best tweets Dee will retweet them. Kamalaharriscom if you want to sign up.

Speaker 1:

I appreciate that. Yeah, kamalaharriscom, if you want to sign up to volunteer for the campaign. Obviously, not everyone is able to provide support for Kamala Harris financially, and we understand that. But you can provide your time and your energy and your effort and your knowledge and your relationships and the community all that good stuff, go do that so apart from Trump's age, he's also an insane person. I think we've all known that for a while, if you're listening this, but I feel like that should Trump everything.

Speaker 3:

I don't know To me that that should be just the deal breaker for.

Speaker 1:

OK, I'm doing that Trump's Trump.

Speaker 2:

That should be a.

Speaker 1:

I'm doing that thing that the media does, where they talk about the most insane developments on planet Earth and like a monotone, monotone voice, as though it's normal. It's extraordinarily not normal. It's a clip of how extraordinarily insane it actually is we're okay, but you know I have 50 000 people.

Speaker 4:

Elvis didn't have 50 and he had a guitar. I had no guitar. I didn't have the use right. Elvis had no guitar. I didn't have the, elvis had a guitar. He had a lot. We love Elvis, right, but he had a guitar. I don't have a guitar, so would have like.

Speaker 1:

What the fuck this?

Speaker 2:

sounds so far gone and he sounds like really fucking high.

Speaker 3:

I'm only a little bit fucking high and I'm like and they're just talking about random shit a mile a minute because they can't shut up and it just goes into from one okay, uncle don okay.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, uncle don okay. Oh, head of elector, yes, okay sharks and electrocution, baby, uh, yeah.

Speaker 1:

so I watched a number of his rallies. I don't get to watch them all, or, and you know, I don't always get to watch them all in their entirety, because they're usually over an hour long, Um, but usually, you know, 15, 20 minutes in he just starts to ramble about crazy shit, just like that. But at every single rally and he's been holding rallies for two years now you can only imagine how much nonsense he's filled my rallies for two years now. You can only imagine how much nonsense he's filled my brain with at this point but yeah, they're all that bad. And now again, because the media doesn't have Biden's age to obsess over, like Hillary's emails, they're going to have to start covering some of the crazy shit he says.

Speaker 1:

And this whole thing you know where the Democratic Party was. You know nearly thrown into turmoil. It did bring a lot of attention publicly on the onto the election. You know, I'm sure the media's ratings have gone up. But if they start covering all of this weird, insane shit on the right and that's put in people's faces again, just like the weird, the weirdo angle, like the insanity angle, it's going to be difficult for them to overcome. And then Trump. He can't stick to a script anymore Like he's, like his, his self-control at this point is totally out the window. Like it's taking him, like all the power that he possesses, just to not say the N-word when talking about common hairs that he possesses, just to not say the n-word when talking about common hairs stuck on a loop.

Speaker 3:

It's like somebody pulled the string out of his back and it got stuck on one of them. Dolls, because it's just a loop of hannibal lecter sharks, electrocution, electric electricity.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that was just that's it and water.

Speaker 3:

He'll throw in water every now and then that dishwashers with no water, and democrats don't want water well, that was one of the things that the crypto thing was like.

Speaker 1:

I'm gonna give you all the electricity. It's more like they're like no, no, no more electricity it's like what it's, it's beyond insane. I just I hope the the media finally gets the message that it's time for them to do their jobs and look, we don't need them out here rooting for kamala harris. But they just need to be honest and tell the truth and, in the show, what is actually happening on both sides the aisle at this point and again.

Speaker 3:

I mean they don't have to say anything. Play a clip. Oh, Kamala and Trump were both in blah blah blah last night, Oklahoma, and this is a clip from Kamala, this is a clip from Trump, and then just let the chips fall where they may yeah that's it one of the things that was holding holding us back is that, no matter what we do on social media, the media just refused to cover it at some point.

Speaker 1:

But because now they again, they don't have a narrative to follow, they kind of have to just do reporting like social media is actually having an influence on legacy media. They're, they're picking up the you know the support.

Speaker 3:

They picked up weird.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, they're picking up the support for Harris.

Speaker 2:

They picked up on the weirdo angle, like they're covering the money. Don't you forget it. Msnbc.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, they're talking about the whole change in vibes. Yeah, they're talking about the whole change in vibes. And while it's important that we actually shift the vibes on the ground, that the media coverage is reflecting that, we'll just create a feedback loop. At this point, I just hope they don't find something you know, the one thing Kamala Harris does wrong in their eyes to harp on until the election, because if they do that, they'll stick with it if possible. On until the election, because if they do that, they'll, they'll stick with it if possible. But so, in terms of our closing thoughts, just, you know, carol, tell us how you're feeling after a week of the Harris campaign at this point.

Speaker 2:

I'm feeling good. Well, yes, I'm glad I no longer have to convince everybody that it's going to be OK. No, I think it's going to be OK. It's going to be OK. No, I think it's going to be OK. I'm still really encouraged by all the enthusiasm and I hope these people who are enthusiastic now are really going to get out there and volunteer and get other people to vote, because that's, at the end of the day, how you win an election, not by being, you know, calling everyone weird, which is great. You know calling everyone weird, which is great. They are helping, they are winning in the public, the court of public opinion, by keeping the uh trump's team on the offensive defensive.

Speaker 2:

I don't want you to have to spend all their time uh telling everyone where they're not crazy, having to disown their own uh agenda, thinking people will uh fall for that. It's's going better for us than it has been in a while. And, yeah, tweet us about what you're going to do for Kamala's campaign and we will retweet you and say that you're great, unless it's a bad thing that you're going to do. Then we'll say that you're not great. How are you feeling Weekend of Harris campaign, unless?

Speaker 1:

it's a bad thing that you're going to do, and we'll say that you're not great. All right, how are you feeling we?

Speaker 4:

can hear this campaign.

Speaker 3:

I am very much enthusiastic. I know that we're going to have the votes. I am just concerned about the shenanigans that are going on, because I know that they're desperate to and a cornered animal, that they're just you know, and that's how I feel like they are. They know that they are going to lose and they are going to do, and we know what they're capable of.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, we've seen it.

Speaker 3:

And that's the thing. That's the scary part is because we know what they're capable of and we know that many of them are in a position to. You know, like the Ken Paxton's out there, it's the Ken Paxton's that freaking worry me right now, because I know that they're not above being dirty, and right now they're they're in the muck, and that's what I'm concerned about. Laura Trump going on TV and calling for one,000 people that they need to strike, they need to head out to voting polling places and they need to break shit and freaking finding out about this app with this 500,000 people on it that they are targeting for challenging their right to vote. You know the Heritage Foundation, project 2025 and their targeting of kicking one million people off of the rolls. Those are the things that I think that we also need to highlight.

Speaker 3:

I don't want people to be so full of warm and fuzzies that they forget what Republicans are capable of and what they are in the process of doing.

Speaker 3:

They need to be aware of that as well, so that they know to check their roles, because did you know that they have that in Florida? Is it Florida where you can just deregister anybody to vote and all you need is to go on the website. You don't need an ID, you just need a name, not even a part, an address, a county, and then like the last. So if you have somebody's information, you know they're always hacking stuff and they can just go. And then they kept trying to get information and they're like oh, we'll send something in the mail. Well, we all know who's in charge of the mail right now, and if you get it after, it's too late for you to re register if it's past the registration deadline. So it's that kind of dirty pool that they're going to be paying. So I don't want to be a Debbie Downer, but I do need people to stay vigilant and to pay attention to what's going on in your state, what the Secretary of State is doing, what the Board of Education, board of Elections what I mean?

Speaker 3:

What is it? Board of elect? What do they call it? The board?

Speaker 1:

of elections.

Speaker 3:

That's it, board of elections. I just kept thinking BOE, but yeah, but you need to pay attention Whoever it is that's in charge of in your particular state, because every state's a little bit different. Some, you know, might be a secretary of state, something like you know. So pay attention, especially even if you're in a blue state. You know, pay attention to what is going on. So that will just be my warning. My closing thought is to keep your eyes open for the fuckery because it's going on around you right now and, like I said, don't be all of your warm and fuzzy seeing how much Madam Vice President is raising and how many people are enthusiastic and happy about her. But pay attention.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and if you haven't already, just go ahead and re-register to vote. It can't hurt, like I do it before every election now, just in case, because I live in a red state. Now it's up to some fucking shenanigans and I think we have some kind of rule here where if you don't vote in X amount of elections, they automatically remove you from the registration. So just go ahead, hit that button online in your state, whatever that website is, reregister. Make sure your information is correct, make sure your address is correct, make sure your information is correct, make sure your address is correct. Also, you know one of the things that's't remember what, it is off the top of my head but if we've got a lot of people who hadn't voted previously, that are excited about voting now, and that's come with the news of Biden dropping out and Harris taking the mantle, so to speak, we've got a good shot.
