Pardon The Insurrection
Where we discuss the ongoing Congressional and criminal investigations of the January 6 coup orchestrated by the former President. And because insurrection wasn't enough, we'll also cover the Department of Justice espionage investigation, investigations relating to other members of Congress, and more. Don't worry, we're not handing out any pardons.
Pardon The Insurrection
The Floating Trump Campaign Of Garbage
Ever wondered what the world would look like without the Republican Party? We kick off our latest episode with a humorous exploration of this unlikely scenario, paired with a light-hearted chat about the dual purposes of vape pens. We also take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude to you, our amazing audience, for the birthday wishes and unwavering support throughout the year. From there, we shift gears to the upcoming election madness, spotlighting Kamala Harris's campaign and its creative flair in using music to rally voters. We celebrate Kendrick Lamar's enduring legacy, focusing on his iconic tracks that continue to resonate with audiences across generations.
The episode takes a serious turn as we tackle the tangled intersection of racism and politics in America. Scott Pressler's controversial voter registration activities serve as a backdrop to our discussion on the nuances of comedy and the fine line between humor and offense. We dissect the fallout from a comedian's racist remarks and Rudy Giuliani's inflammatory commentary, underscoring the necessity of genuine humor amidst a landscape often marred by harmful rhetoric. It's a raw conversation that examines how racism persists in both comedy and politics, particularly in the crucial battleground of swing states.
We wrap things up by casting a critical eye on election strategies and political maneuvering. From the complexities of sexual orientation and personal freedoms to the curious case of Steve Bannon's release from prison, we offer a blend of humor and serious political commentary. The unsettling possibility of election manipulation by key political figures like Mike Johnson is explored, raising important questions about the integrity of American democracy. Our conversation culminates with a reflection on Merrick Garland's political strategy post-2020 election, highlighting the ongoing challenges in holding key figures accountable. Join us for this multi-layered discussion that promises both laughter and insights.

...
Yeah, I mean, that's always an edge. Existing is likely an advantage over something that doesn't exist.
Speaker 1:Wow, this is an insightful episode already.
Speaker 2:Well, fingers crossed, if we play our cards right, in a week the Republican Party will no longer exist. I mean, I know that's extraordinarily hopeful and unlikely, but it's a possibility.
Speaker 1:I got my two vape pens just tied together. What is that? Hold on, let me see. I just put both of my vape pens. I've just tied them together to have my indica and sativa together, also because it's harder to lose this way. It's not as small.
Speaker 2:All right, I'm good to go now. What were you saying about your vape pen and your incredible sex?
Speaker 1:Those were separate people. That was her.
Speaker 2:No, I know that was for each of you, one for.
Speaker 5:And I got a great.
Speaker 2:I tied them together together today.
Speaker 5:Good for you.
Speaker 2:Okay, so you got a double vape going on there.
Speaker 1:Is that what that is. I just have them tied together so they don't get lost.
Speaker 2:Oh, I thought you were smoking both of them at the same time.
Speaker 5:No that would be cool if you did that, Carol. That would be.
Speaker 1:All right, I've done it.
Speaker 2:So don't feel too left out. Ty, carol also got some incredible sucking going on there. One, two, three, four. Hey, this is D-Night, this is Carol, this is Ty, and you're listening to the Pardon the Insurrection podcast, where we all understand that Puerto Ricans are Americans, unlike some people in the Republican Party, as per the usual, usual, just utter week of insanity. I mean, I sit here and I think about last week and I'm like, oh, yeah, that's right. A woman accused donald trump of sexually assaulting her after she was brought to trump trump tower by jeffrey epstein.
Speaker 2:Incredible um, that made no headlines. That was insane. And every single week is like that. There's always some utter insanity that occurs that just the media just refuses to cover. I don't know why it's like that, but that is well, actually we'll probably get to why that it's like that. Yeah, we'll get to that um. But first of all, I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who wished me a happy birthday and sent all their love and support last week and over the course of the weekend. I appreciate you guys.
Speaker 5:You're 10 years from ARP.
Speaker 2:A-double-up, double-a-r-p, whatever it's called.
Speaker 1:No, they've been sending me stuff for.
Speaker 5:Forever, I'm officially a member now.
Speaker 2:That's funny. They've sent me stuff before, but it's usually, I think, it's like car insurance or something anyway. So, yeah, appreciate you guys. Like I wouldn't be doing this without you listening and or following me on the internet. All that good stuff, appreciate everything, all the support, all the kind words, all the thoughts, all the comments all year long, not just on special occasions. You guys made me feel appreciated all the time and I appreciate you guys back. And of course, we're a week away from the election, so all hell breaking is breaking loose generally speaking, loose generally speaking.
Speaker 2:And you know, despite whatever your particular flavor of presidential candidate is, I assume, if you're listening to this podcast, you're likely voting for Kamala Harris, as am I, or as have I already Early voting, unless you just love to get off to hating our voices, in which case hey, I'm entirely sure there's a couple of people out there hate listening to this podcast and kudos to you. Every download counts. But even in a week of insanity, it was kind of awesome to see this from the Kamala Harris campaign freedom, freedom I can't move freedom.
Speaker 6:I need freedom too. I break chains about myself. I'ma keep running. Cause the winner.
Speaker 5:Don't quit on themselves yeah I love that song taking over the vegas sphere was dope.
Speaker 2:That was incredible. And yet a song is kudos, so you know I'm not the is that the music was added to the video.
Speaker 1:Right, they don't like? Blast las vegas with super loud music all the time no, that.
Speaker 2:The harris campaign put out a video and they they dubbed the music. So before everyone like tries to lynch me over my Beyonce take, I'm not the biggest Beyonce fan. It's not that I dislike Beyonce. Her music is pretty good. I'm not necessarily fan of her voice per se. I mean I feel like Latoya Luckett was probably the best singer in the group and she got kicked out of the group.
Speaker 3:That's fair.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's fair. So, like in terms of like, vocal quality, it's probably not even my favorite in Destiny's Child, but she does make dope music and she's had an extraordinary career. I mean, she is talented, she can sing, she can dance, she can do everything, so kudos to her.
Speaker 5:She's Sasha Fierce, come on.
Speaker 2:Well, it's just funny. You bring up that song because it's funny. It's Kendrick Lamar's year and he is probably going to live on forever in two ways Because the two songs that we're going to hear for the rest of eternity yes, the two songs we're going to hear for the rest of eternity have Kendrick Lamar on them. It's one, that Beyonce song Freedom, we're going to hear for the rest of eternity have Kendrick Lamar on them. It's one Beyonce song, freedom. We're going to hear that for 100 years. And we're also going to hear they Not Like Us.
Speaker 5:They Not Like that is going to go down in the history books. I have heard that song played so many different times and so many different venues. Man, come on, that's a banger.
Speaker 2:It is.
Speaker 5:He ate.
Speaker 2:That he did, and as much of a fan as I am of, maybe not Drake the person, but Drake the musician, the artist, at least some of his music. It's just quite hilarious that he, one of the songs that will go down in American history, is calling him a pedophile. It's just utterly ironic. I I mean just anyway, speaking to pedophiles, uh, donald trump held I'm sorry, donald trump held a rally over the weekend at madison square garden in new york, which is just an insane sentence a week before election.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's Vanity Fest in a state he can't win.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and it went off the rails before it even really got started, as a right-wing comedian just totally destroyed himself on the stage and likely ended the possibility.
Speaker 5:And the Trump campaign pretty much.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he also destroyed the Trump campaign in the process, making some extraordinarily distasteful comments that pissed off what I would imagine to be a lot of voters a week before the election.
Speaker 7:A lot going on, like I don't know if you guys know this, but there's literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now. Yeah, I think it's called puerto rico. Oh, okay, all right, okay, we're good. Um, yeah, did he get booed?
Speaker 2:uh, you know, so he, he didn't get laughs. Really, if you heard, it stayed pretty quiet. I I think it was a lot of groans. So that was an extraordinarily detrimental comment from that guy. The Trump campaign didn't really distance themselves from the remarks. None of the speakers who proceeded thereafter came out and addressed the comments.
Speaker 1:It seems like their approaches, the campaign's approaches, to say like it was funny, it's a joke. Normal people I read, I read normal people think this is funny. Oh, that was matt walsh, that was the bad matt walsh, sorry, yeah, yeah, my fan.
Speaker 2:Um. So obviously this comment, as terrible as it is, it is surprising that it's made shockwaves throughout the media landscape and apparently it's trickled its way down to Latino and specifically just brown voters in general, but specifically Puerto Ricans living in America, as a number of them live in swing states and I believe in all of the swing states you could even throw Florida into this more Puerto Ricans live in each of those states than the margin for victory in 2020.
Speaker 5:Yeah, I think it was like 1.1 million live in New York alone yeah, also just coming to their home turf in Pennsylvania yeah, outside of Puerto Rico to that group yeah, it's crazy where does?
Speaker 1:does Puerto Rico get like one electoral vote? Yeah, but um more importantly than that they're the ones in the swing states are gonna make a bigger impact.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so Pennsylvania in particular has nearly half a million Puerto Rican Puerto Ricans living there, and that's extraordinarily detrimental to Trump's chances of winning in in a week especially since a lot of those that Amish vote was made up.
Speaker 5:Yeah, that they found one hundred and eighty thousand Amish in Lancaster County when there's only twenty two000 Amish and 92,000 in the entire state.
Speaker 2:Yeah, there's less than 100,000 Amish people in the state and they said they found only 200,000. You know, scott Pressler this guy, who?
Speaker 1:who goes around? I thought he was just a, really his screen name is apt, it's the persistence. And he, he just goes around registering people to vote. And I was like, damn, I can't fault the guy. I hate him but I can't fault him. And now, because he's just registering people to vote. But apparently there were about what 1500 to 2500 applications that were suspicious, with suspicious names, dates, things that didn't match up, and I saw that my husband's like who's the guy you were talking, that annoying guy you were talking about? Like Scott Pressler. He's like, oh, that's, he's in the news.
Speaker 2:Like oh, yeah, scott Pressler is registering voters that don't exist and is likely going to prison. But so back to this Puerto Rico thing. Took fire in the community, probably going to cost Trump a couple of swing States, I would imagine. Like I know people are like oh, you know the polls. I mean the polls have been pretty much saying the same thing over the course of the past month and a half. The elections close. Going into election day, kamala Harris has the advantage, but it's not going to be an overwhelming massive victory in swing states. But yeah, kudos to that guy and like well, first of all, he didn't just address Puerto Ricans, he also just said just insanely insensitive shit in general.
Speaker 7:I welcome migrants to the United States of America with open arms. And by open arms. I mean like this it's wild. And these Latinos, they love making babies too. Just know that. They do, they do. There's no pulling out. They don't do that. They come, come inside, just like they did to our country. Republicans of the party with a good sense of humor um just incredible I love the way that joke ended yeah, just yeah.
Speaker 2:I know right, incredibly insensitive comments and I get that he's like a shock jock type comedian. You know he says he's like a roast guy and he was doing the stand up and Pinggang the Asian-American comedian had opened for him.
Speaker 5:And then Hinchcliffe comes on the stage and just starts going on an anti-Asian rant, calling Pinggang a chink and then making a Fake Asian accent. I guess what he thought was an Asian Accent and his mind it was vile.
Speaker 2:Also at the rally. He talked about a guy in the audience, said he was. I forgot what he said. He looked like he was wearing.
Speaker 5:A helmet.
Speaker 2:He said it looked like he was wearing a lab shade, yeah, and then he proceeded to comment on how he hung out with him the previous evening and they carved watermelons together. Now I do find it super ironic in some ways that the thing that lit the country on fire and it took off in the media was just the comments about puerto ricans. I mean, obviously it was offensive but, like all the other racism, just pretty much went under the radar.
Speaker 5:No, no one really cared and he covered the gamut, like he went from palestinian. Like you know, he started with puerto ricans, then going on to black people, latinos. Palestinians and then his anti-Semitism, he covered the game.
Speaker 2:It was an equal opportunity race set yeah, except for white people, that's the only group of people that he did not go after in any way, shape form or fashion.
Speaker 5:He didn't talk about no raisins in the tater salad.
Speaker 2:He didn't talk about no unseasoned chicken fucking people in the audience would have been offended and then so a lot of people, especially like comedians themselves, talk about the fact that you have to give them the space to just do their jokes, and I do agree with that. I absolutely believe you should have the space to say whatever you want, especially as a comedian. You get to make whatever kind of jokes you want. You get to tell the like. If anything, comedians should be getting as close to the third rail as possible, at least inappropriate venues.
Speaker 2:The problem here is not only was this stuff not funny, they weren't jokes there was no there was no joke, there was no setup, there was no real punch line he's just talking about. I mean, he's basically just saying racist shit. Um, and it's not that it's impossible to make jokes about race, like there are jokes that have been fairly racist, but they're also funny. So if it's actually funny, I will give an actual comedian a pass on the racism.
Speaker 5:Is I again. There's a measure, actual funny joke. Yes, no the nature.
Speaker 2:The nature of the joke implies some form of racism, but the comedian is not intending to be offensive, it's just making a joke that has some kind of observation about race in America, totally fine. Comedians do it all the time, especially black comedians Happens all the time. This shit was not funny, it was not jokes, it was straight up racism. It's probably going to I mean, in all likelihood is going to cost Trump a swing state.
Speaker 5:I mean, this is the same guy who tweeted if anybody wanted to go half season on a slave, so Fair enough.
Speaker 2:But in case you think we're being ridiculous, we do have comments from other individuals who are not comedians, that are just as in line with that nonsense. I mean, it's just as bad. Here's Rudy Giuliani following in a similar fashion.
Speaker 4:September 11 was our darkest hour. October 7 was Israel's darkest hour. They are our best friend. I worked for Ronald Reagan for eight years. Ronald Reagan for eight years. Ronald Reagan said we have to be there for Israel always, because they are always there for us.
Speaker 2:The racism is coming. Hamas is not there for us.
Speaker 4:Iran is not there for us. They want to kill us and the Palestinians are taught to kill us at two years old. They won't let a Palestinian in Jordan, they won't let a Palestinian in Egypt and Harris wants to bring them to you. They may have good people, I'm sorry. I don't take a risk with people that are taught to kill Americans at two.
Speaker 5:Oh Jesus, how far that man has fallen.
Speaker 1:I can't I mean you say that Maybe good people, but we're not willing to take a risk.
Speaker 5:David is still so fucking just.
Speaker 1:So he's not willing to give. He's saying I'm not willing to give someone the benefit of humanity because OK.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and you say how how far good people have fallen. I think he was always this, he was always a closeted version of this, and then being out of office, and then the advent of Trump, it just he has all the time in the world to be this. Yes, it allowed him to show us true colors, but quickly. Before we move on from from that, I just wanted to go back to that joke that the comedian made about Latinos not pulling out Trump's. Trump's mom has 10 kids.
Speaker 5:Trump's mom has 10 kids, so she had 10 kids, oh Jesus yeah, that's crazy well, elon Musk has like 12 with 5 baby mamas. So that also in context at the rally.
Speaker 1:There was like a little toddler with him at the rally. There was like a little toddler with him at the rally.
Speaker 2:It's entirely possible, oh yeah he had his.
Speaker 5:He had his son with a make america great again hat, and they're like, oh my god, elon's parenting. He's just like us um, you know which one, are you put on the fucking hat?
Speaker 2:It all goes back to Kendrick Lamar. Elon Musk is the very definition of not like us. So, in continuing along with the racism, CNN had a guest on who just said some incredibly offensive shit about?
Speaker 5:Is that when Mehdi Hassan went ham?
Speaker 2:Yeah, well, I'll play the clip for you.
Speaker 5:If you don't want to be called.
Speaker 3:Nazis, stop doing it.
Speaker 2:You're called an anti-Semite. You've been called an anti-Semite more than anyone else's table. And people will say no by me.
Speaker 3:I've never called you an anti-Semite. I mean I'm not saying or saying I'm a supporter of the Palestinians.
Speaker 5:I'm used say that. No, I did not say that.
Speaker 7:I said I hope you let me just stop.
Speaker 5:You said you have my people Of the.
Speaker 2:Palestinian Hamas.
Speaker 6:Guys oh are you.
Speaker 2:Am I what? No, I apologize.
Speaker 3:I apologize.
Speaker 2:So that comment, if you didn't understand the reference, it was an operation by the Israeli military explosives, killing or wounding numerous Hezbollah military officials, which was an extraordinarily successful operation in terms of decapitating Hezbollah's military prowess. Now again, you know, in all likelihood I'm sure probably a handful of innocent civilians were probably hurt or wounded in that operation. That's extraordinarily unfortunate. Just talking about in terms of a military operation to decapitate a terrorist organization. It was effective in that regard. And that guy I forgot his fucking name. He's kind of a dick.
Speaker 3:Accusing Manny.
Speaker 2:Hassan, many. I'll just call him dick. Well, first of all, accusing mary hassan of being a terrorist and practically saying that he wants to die, that's extraordinarily distasteful and just disgusting and gross. Now, and I say this as a person who quite regularly does not agree with Mehdi Hassan, Mehdi Hassan yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, especially his take on the situation in the Middle East. Not always a fan, not necessarily, of the end goal that he wants to get to, but the way in which he approaches it Typically don't agree with that. But again, these are just disagreements. I don't wish any harm on the dude, I don't think with that. But again, these are just disagreements. I don't wish any harm on the dude. I don't think he's a terrorist. Do I think he supports Hamas? Probably not.
Speaker 2:I mean, you know his zeal for the defense of Palestinians. It does kind of lead, lean into uncomfortable territory for me personally sometimes, because you know, let's not forget, that was a terrorist organization that started a war there. That doesn't get dressed very often, but anyway, that aside, totally disgusting. And again I would just like to note that like and this isn't a complaint as much as an observation but like the racism against black people from the trump campaign is just so baked into the equation and that when it happens the media just shrugs its shoulders and it takes something like you know, calling a former MSNBC host the wrong terrorist organization, for starters, and then also you know a terrible comedian calling Puerto Rico a floating island of garbage to, to wake the media up. Island of garbage. To wake the media up when, in fact, if they were just vigilant about the racism against Black people, like if they drew the line there, it would never get to these other extremes.
Speaker 5:You know what? D you saying that? Because I was thinking about that exact same thing. So when Ariadne Grande, jennifer Lopez and what's his name, ricky Martin and Bad Bunny spoke out after that, but I'm like hell even Geraldo Rivera was like hey man.
Speaker 5:Yeah, but I'm like it's not like Trump doesn't have a history of shitting on Puerto Ricans before that and other marginalized people, but because this comedian said this out loud at this particular time, then it's like, oh, I'm going to vote for Kamala Harris. Bitch, she's been in the running for 70, 80 goddamn days, yeah.
Speaker 3:Before, until this is you want to get involved.
Speaker 5:You are showing that you are not for all people. You were not standing up after Hurricane Maria. You weren't standing up or speaking out when Trump held back and refused to give the funding that Congress approved to assist hundreds of billions of dollars like $450 billion to the fucking island, and you fruit billions of dollars to assist hundreds of billions of dollars like 450 billion dollars to the fucking island and you well, even worse than not said nothing.
Speaker 5:so miss me with that bullshit that I'm not going to pat you on the motherfucking back for saying something eight days before the election because somebody said out loud, because if they said it in the background your ass would not have said shit, like you have not said shit for the previous fucking four, eight, ten, goddamn years. Fuck you Two things.
Speaker 2:So yeah, thank you. So not only did Trump not, he blocked the billions of dollars in aid to Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria, but he also had his friends start these companies from scratch and then awarded them, these tiny little companies, and awarded them hundreds of millions of dollars of government money to go to Puerto Rico and do work that was never done, so basically stole aid from Puerto Rico he wanted to trade Puerto Rico for Greenland.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that was insane, but also like bigger pictures zooming out. This is part of the issue of non-Black minorities in America, like, typically they come. You know I'm not saying this applies to everyone, but typically they come here and they think the way to gain social status and gain privilege in America is to lean in as close to whiteness as possible, not forgetting that if you allow the people in power and with financial means and resources and access and all of that, to continue being racist against Black people that you're trying to escape from socially, the racism will eventually come for you. And this is just an example of people waking up and realizing oh, the racism against me is here Now it's a problem, when it would never have gotten to this point if people were willing to stand up against the racism against black people specifically. But again, you know, lesson learned for a lot of people. I hope fingers crossed. You know Trump doesn't do great with the Latino community. I'll take it.
Speaker 5:I'll take those motherfucking votes. I'll take it, but fuck them still.
Speaker 2:I mean, I totally understand you turning your nose over them. It's understandable. But yeah, I'll take the votes. Typically, trump doesn't do extraordinarily great with the latino community, but he does get you know, 33, 34, I think. He's polling at like 35. Um, if this knocks that number down to the low 30s, he's likely going to lose numerous swing states. So fingers crossed in that regard. But again, as you can see, when Republicans are like, hey, you can't take a joke, but then you line up clip after clip after clip of not jokes and them just being flat out honest, it's nothing but racism.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and it's funny to me, the only part that's funny is the sick irony. That's funny is it's, you know, the sick irony that, uh, they kept saying it was taken out of context, but when we put it as you said, it's just one after another, after another. So when I stopped to examine, I saw that the context is that they want to make a bunch of racist remarks.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so there you go and then, you know, align that with the fact that Trump wants to basically turn the government into his own personal army, and they want to round up millions of people.
Speaker 5:His own brown shirts.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and put them in concentration camps and they wonder why we call them Nazis and they wonder why. So there was some unfortunate news for the Trump campaign as well. Today, as we're recording this is, it appears as though, well, one of the October surprises isn't even really a news story per se, it's just a surprise because it's actually just going to suck votes away from Trump. Suck votes away from Trump and it's probably going to impact their chances of winning these swing states next week.
Speaker 3:Hey, sandra, this is breaking within the last five minutes. The Supreme Court has declined to take RFK Jr's name off ballots in Michigan and Wisconsin. This is something that he wanted to do, the Trump campaign probably upset by this. As RFK has pledged his support to Donald Trump, though, his name will remain on ballots in Michigan, in Wisconsin, meaning people can vote for him even though he's no longer a candidate. Ballots there were already printed. So a loss for RFK Jr at the Supreme Court two times today in Spain.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I held that back, the whole video, so.
Speaker 2:RFK initially entered the 2024 election on the Democratic ticket. We correctly identified him as a Republican in sheep's clothing. He quickly got dispatched by President Biden no one remembers that but he had to drop out of the race because he was polling so poor in comparison to Biden that there was no way that attempted to get him on the ballots in multiple states largely swing states, but not enough states in order to actually win enough electoral college votes to win the election.
Speaker 1:So we knew it was an op in that regard, and also just the fact that you know not only it's funny that they thought he would siphon all these votes away from Joe Biden, but definitely not going to siphon votes away from Kamala Harris. It's funny because they wanted him on there. For this reason that he's going to stay on there and be the hubris.
Speaker 5:What people? Aren't finding out is after he withdrew withdrew from the presidential race and after he endorsed Trump, but he petitioned after he endorsed. Trump on the ballot in Kentucky and said, as a presidential candidate so everything about that motherfucker is just fucking foul and wrong, and the only reason that I can think that Cheryl Hines is all goo-goo-eyed and other than her being a shit person is that he must have a big fucking dick, because I don't get it.
Speaker 1:She probably did. I don't know. I don't know about the idea of Kennedy.
Speaker 2:I don't Look. We've talked enough about right wing politicians dicks over the course of the past few weeks here, including a dead golfer, like I'm done. I'm sorry I'm done in that regard, like I don't want to.
Speaker 5:But yeah, so it's extraordinarily funny. No more dick.
Speaker 2:Not today, maybe next time. Not today, maybe next time. Yeah, it's extraordinarily funny that the Trump campaign that they were pulling a fast one over Democrats, trying to get RFK Jr on the ballot and then he was so right wing nut jobby that Republicans started thinking he was extraordinarily popular. And then he drops out and then they can't get him off the ballot and he's stealing votes away from Trump. It's incredible.
Speaker 2:Like kudos to those, those Brilliant mastermind strategy there to shoot yourself in the face like Stuart Rhodes and again further hampering your prospects of winning the presidential election. I love these dudes. Sometimes the scheme on the surface seems like it's so genius and then the execution of it is so stupid that you like you and they end up killing themselves and like again. That's part of the reason why January 6th failed is because we had stupid people in the Republican Party planning this shit. But again, as we've seen, there's a lot of stupid people in the Republican Party to choose from and so they end up doing this nonsense that is true before we move away from the dicks permanently.
Speaker 3:There was a clip of of jd vance uh being extraordinary, seemingly adamant about the fact that he's not gay yeah okay, okay, I've actually heard this and I you know I'm not a gay guy, but I've heard this from gay friends of mine, damn, damn it.
Speaker 6:You want to talk about virality? I'll talk about going viral.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that would have made some headlines.
Speaker 2:So that is coming from the candidate who we've seen dressed in drag on at least two occasions We've seen the photos and also who went through multiple name changes in an effort to identify his uh sexual preference over the course of his lifetime as a young man.
Speaker 1:Thereby Well, he's not a gay man. I'm not a gay man.
Speaker 5:I'm not a gay guy, but I heard from my gay friend.
Speaker 1:I'm pansexual. It sounds like he's pansexual I was kidding.
Speaker 2:He reminds me of the type of dude that being like, hey, sucking a dick doesn't make you gay, and I'm like, yeah, I guess, but how many dicks have you sucked? This is a real question.
Speaker 5:I don't know um, yeah, just I am pro sucking dick.
Speaker 2:I don't shame anybody for that I am pro sucking dick as well, especially if you're a woman out there and you you're like that's your favorite thing.
Speaker 5:A bitch gotta eat, okay, yeah.
Speaker 7:Hey look and you know, given that we so what?
Speaker 1:are we talking about?
Speaker 5:Well given the fact that we could potentially be living Sucking dick for food.
Speaker 2:Well, potentially, given the fact that we could, given the fact that we could be, potentially living in an America where abortion is banned, sucking dick, it'll cut down on the need for abortion.
Speaker 5:You want to cut down on abortion?
Speaker 2:suck dick yeah, that's what republicans should really be pushing them, baby, swallow them.
Speaker 5:Babies, girl do it. Yeah, no, I just I mean my gag reflex is pretty good, so oversharing.
Speaker 2:So jd vance is just extraordinarily. He's just a fucking weirdo man like what, who's what kind of vice presidential candidate says stuff like that. It's just incredible. Um, so we also had steve bannon being released from his four month long prison sentence for oh, and you said he's six months pregnant who is this? He emerged out of jail six months oh yeah, steve bannon looked like he was eating well in jail. So speaking of sucking dick, to eat.
Speaker 5:Somebody hook that commissary up.
Speaker 2:No, like you said, sucking dick to eat. You got to do what you got to do in there.
Speaker 6:Steve Robbie Roadsteamer here. I'm wondering when's the next insurrection? And can we storm the Burger King after this? Like, can we do that? I mean, doesn't he look great now? We were in Danbury the first month together. He looks great. You don't remember me. We were lifting weights and stuff in the weight room. When's the next insurrection? How are we going to do this and stuff, man?
Speaker 3:I'm leaving.
Speaker 6:I'm having a good time. He looks like Yoda with AIDS right now. Robbie Rhodes. Stephen, no political violence. People. This fades right now. Robbie Rhodes. No political violence. People. This place smells like mothballs. Wow, over here, where's? The elevator, I'm not even going to get hors d'oeuvres. Or something.
Speaker 2:So the media showed up in mass. The media showed up in mass for a press releaser. Once Steve Bannon was was released and I mean again he was so the event was crashed by this guy on twitter, roddick road steamer. Uh, I assume he's on tiktok as well. Dude was fucking hilarious. Kudos to him for for that video.
Speaker 2:I mean, that was incredible I've seen a couple of his videos and he is I gotta admit, that might have been the best shit I've seen, just like, generally speaking, anyone doing anything in person. He's like so when are we gonna do our next insurrection? And then Steve Bannon is like pointing and laughing because it is kind of fucking hilarious. He's like, well, actually, now that you mention it, now that you mention it, now that you mention it, but no kudos to that guy. But Steve Bannon, fucktard, is probably, as we speak, I would imagine, plotting on how to steal this election in similar fashion. Oh for sure, for sure. Yes, he did in 2020.
Speaker 1:Why don't we just go photograph the inside of his cell?
Speaker 2:I'm sure he wrote it all on the wall.
Speaker 1:Okay, so one of the things Trump was saying at the Nazi rally. Do you know how to read shit? Hieroglyphics.
Speaker 2:One of the things Trump was saying at the Nazi rally in Madison Square Garden is he's got a little secret with the Speaker of the House.
Speaker 5:Mike Johnson.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, I remember that that might help him with the Speaker of the House, mike Johnson. That might help him with the House.
Speaker 1:The secret is telling people to vote.
Speaker 2:So what I would imagine after the comments from Steve Bannon, rather the comments from Mike Johnson, saying that, like it's a secret and, by definition, you're not supposed to tell what I imagine it is, is some plot related to how they plan to seal the election.
Speaker 2:That revolves around the possibility that Throwing it to the House. So, first off, if Republicans win the House in terms of House majority, mike Johnson will remain Speaker of the House. That election will be certified, and then Congress will be sworn in on January 3rd. Then certification for the presidential election, which will thereby throw the vote for president, will throw the Electoral College votes for president out, whether that I mean, rather, if Kamala Harris wins, and instead it will be chosen by a state delegation, and how that's done isn't by the House of Representatives, but each state legislature gets a vote and Republicans control more than a majority and could thereby decide to elect Trump president, regardless of whether Kamala Harris won the popular vote or the electoral college vote. So, in regards to you know, steve Bannon, I would imagine he is probably plotting numerous alternate, alternate paths of stealing the election, as he did in 2020.
Speaker 1:If I did not declare martial law and have Mike Johnson arrested and force the next person to do it. I'm serious, See.
Speaker 5:I mean, I'm sorry are we?
Speaker 1:would we just sit there? He's just going to sit there and be like all right, okay.
Speaker 2:Republicans' refusal to certify the election in that case for Merrick Garland to order the Department of Justice to sequester Congress.
Speaker 5:Is Merrick Garland still alive? He is still alive. I need proof of life, right now he's still alive.
Speaker 2:The Department of Justice sent that. We'll talk about this in just a moment.
Speaker 1:He needs to stay alive long enough to resign on January 21st. I'm with you, Carol.
Speaker 5:I know where Dee does not. He needs to stay alive long enough to resign on January 21st. I'm with you, Carol. I know where Dee does not agree with us.
Speaker 2:So the weekend after Trump rather the weekend after Elon announced that likely illegal lottery in Pennsylvania, the Department of Justice sent out a letter telling him to cease and desist on Monday. So they're aware of the shit that's going on. I'm sure likely it's all being investigated and charges are coming.
Speaker 5:I don't need them to send out a letter. I need them to send out some fucking officers with some goddamn cuffs.
Speaker 2:Back to Steve Bannon here so back in 2020, before the election, steve Bannon was literally telling us what the plan was to, no matter what happens in terms of voters voting for president, that trump was basically going to declare he won anyway, and then they were going to try to steal it through the courts, and then they were going to try and steal it through fake electors. So, in all likelihood, I would imagine steve or bannon is looped into whatever the plan is now and he'll likely immediately get on camera to tell his supporters what the plan is, thereby revealing it to everyone. So just stay tuned for that. I'm sure that's coming pretty soon and you know, again, I can see. I can understand how you're probably not pleased with Merrick Garland because you know Trump's not in prison, even though he largely has nothing to do with that. That was the Supreme court, but Merrick Garland was the steve bannon was in prison. So I mean, like I don't know. It's like I don't know, don't know what you want him to do here. All right, I'll give you that I?
Speaker 1:want him to fuck someone up yeah, yeah, I want to see.
Speaker 5:I want to see him put them dukes up.
Speaker 1:I could deal with like I don't know I'm trying to think like we're just gonna let let them bulldoze over the election. Nah, I think that's one thing people are forgetting about. They're like they could do all this stuff. Be like, yeah, but joe biden's president, is he gonna let them? I can't, he's not gonna be like for the good of the country.
Speaker 5:I'm just going to let whatever the fuck happen. January the 22nd, after the day after Biden was inaugurated, it's the 20th. Merrick Garland should have been on this shit period.
Speaker 2:I feel that way you're not going to change my mind, you're not going to know well, I think there's one thing I could tell you that might possibly change your mind, merrick. Garland wasn't confirmed to Garland wasn't confirmed to his position as Attorney General until March of 2021.
Speaker 5:Okay, March.
Speaker 1:He had two months to get his shit together.
Speaker 2:Okay, I think it was two to three weeks after he was appointed Attorney General. He had a secret task force constructed to go after the top of the January 6th election plotters. So I mean he did like Trump's indicted.
Speaker 5:That's because the January 6th commission forced his fucking hand Like if they had not exposed all that they did.
Speaker 1:We don't have time to argue about Merrick Garland. We're going to disagree.
Speaker 3:So, April of 2021,.
Speaker 2:That was before the January 6th committee Was even commissioned. I was just saying. I just you know, like the committee Didn't do any public hearings for months. Bless you, bless you. Yeah, that was the cutest sneeze ever. That's quite adorable, well.
