So you know Stephen Colbert, he does a daily show on, or the late show, I don't know, daily, late, tomorrow, whatever it may be. He does a late show on CBS, took Letterman's place. Now, one time those late night shows, all three of them were Titans.

You know, a lot of people watch them. I sold a lot of books. I was on Kimmel and Lano and Letterman more than 20 times, 25 times, a combination. I mean, I was a little bit because I sold wood. looks. Now, very few people watch them because they're not funny. And that later night you want to relax, you want to be agitated. Colbert in particular, Fallon doesn't get too involved with the politics. I mean, yeah, he's in a culture, I understand, but he's not driven. Colbert is a hardcore leftist. And he's a right to be. If CBS wants to pay him to

spout that stuff, hey, right? Colbert used to be a John Stewart acolyte. You remember the way back, they were on Comedy Central, and Colbert was amusing back then. He's not amusing anymore. Because his whole persona is pushing left-wing politics. You can't get on Colbert's show if you're not a raving liberal. All right, enter Rachel Maddow, who works for NBC, and who is the premier television liberal in the country. Highly paid, not what you think. The published reports of how much money she's making are not true. But she is the highest rating. host on MSNBC. She's carved out a nice career for herself being a far-left woman. And that's a democracy. There's not wrong with that. I'm not criticizing that. What I am criticizing

is the irresponsible statements that she makes and that Colbert makes. So let me prove my point. Roll it. So one of the things that's interesting to me is that there is such gross and obvious incompetence and disregard for our institutions, touching third rails like Social Security and Medicare and Medicaid. This is not the behavior of people, because the Republicans haven't stood up en masse to resist what Donald Trump has done, a few people here or there. This is not the behavior of people who seem like they believe they have to answer to voters in 18 months. That worries me. Not the they're not worried that they don't think that they should be worried because maybe they don't have to worry about an election at all he doesn't think there should be elections and they are

consolidating power they're disempowering congress ignoring congress when they when they're defunding agencies or closing agencies that's congress's job that's not the president's job when they're defying court orders that's them saying that the courts don't have authority over the president that's consolidating all power in one man, that's authoritarianism. And that's what you do when you don't ever want to have an election because you want to stay in power for life. Number one, Ms. Nattah has no idea what the Constitution says. And why should she? Because if the Constitution doesn't fit into her vision, then why bother with it? So Congress appropriates

spending. All right? They passed the spending bill. They're going through. through this now. All right? And they say, yes or no, here's the budget, here are the departments, and here's how much money in the Department of Education gets, Homeland Security gets, blah, blah, blah, that's what Congress does. But the oversight on how the money is spent comes from the executive branch. So if somebody is stealing money in the Department of interior, then the Justice Department goes in and makes the arrest. Not Congress. That comes under the purview of the president.

It's the president's responsibility as a chief law enforcement officer in the country, Ms. Maddow. Perhaps you don't know that, okay, to make sure that the money that Congress allocates is spent honestly and responsibly. Do you not understand that at all? So when a president, any president, sees that it is not, that president has a right to go in and stop the wasteful spending and refer criminal charges to the attorney general if that is warranted.

That's how it works. So each department has an inspector general. And the Inspector General's job is to write reports about where the money goes and give the reports to both the executive branch, the president, and Congress. So everybody can see it. But that has not been taking place, as the Doge expositions proved beyond any reasonable doubt. So Matt Al, number one, doesn't want Doge, doesn't want to know the wasteful and corrupt spending. and I guess doesn't believe that the president of the United States has any authority to stop it. That's just madness.

She would get, she would flunk any political science course that she took. And then she says, they want to stay in power for life. So they don't want elections. Based on what, madam? Based on what? Did Donald Trump not leave when he was defeated by Joe Biden? Yeah, he left. You didn't have to be dragged out.

He left. So the reason that these people say this, Colbert, look, when I debated Colbert on the O'Reilly Factor, and you can Google it, I think it's still around. It was like me in my high school teaching days, teaching urchins who didn't know anything. That's what it was like. Stuart, now, he's on it. John Stewart, not Colbert, just so you know. So Colbert said,

uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, disregard for our institution, social security, Medicare, and Medicaid. There's no disregard. Trump has been quite clear. He's not going to do anything to Social Security or Medicare. And Medicaid is going to be reformed because it's corrupt. And again, he has the power to reform it. Or make referrals. Look, when the taxpayer is funding Medicaid, and the federal government sends billions of dollars to California,

and California uses the money to pay for the health concerns of undocumented migrants, which it does, that is corruption. Do we not know that? When California uses Medicaid dollars from Washington, from you and me, okay, to set up dance programs and neighborhoods, that is corruption. Medicaid is not to be used for dance programs. And the President of the United States has the power to stop that, to reform that. If he didn't or she didn't, down the road, there would be madness. There would be no supervision. You can't have Congress hearing every level of wasteful and corrupt spending, it's impossible. And the Founding Fathers knew that, which is why they infuse the executive branch,

the presidency, with all kinds of power, including executive orders. So why do these people do this? Why Colbert and Mouda do this? I know Colbert a little bit. I don't think I've ever met Moutow. Okay? They do it for two reasons. Number one, they believe this stuff.

They can live in a bubble. They believe what they want to believe. You're not going to, this commentary, if you played it to them, they would hate me. They wouldn't take into account what I'm saying or the factual basis of it. They wouldn't even consider it. They believe what they want to believe. They're comfortable in the far left bubble. They love it in there.

It's like a baby in the womb. They love it in there. I don't want to come out. Okay. And the other reason is money. Rachel Mowdown makes a ton of money being a far-left zealot. A ton of money. You know, you got Scarborough over there, Morning Joe, you know him.

He used to be a Republican, conservative. And what of a sudden is, well, what, money? Nicole Wallace, used to be a Republican advisor to Bush the younger. Now she's a raving, like, miss. All right, and waved that check. You say this. This is what we need you to do. Okay. Okay. I mean, that's not right. And it goes on the right, too, believe me. Believe me. Okay, because I worked at Fox News. And I know the sincere people, and you saw them on a factor, I never used Charlottons. Because I knew the conservative people who were just phonies, just doing it for money. I knew who they were. That was easy to see. I would put on people of both liberal and conservative persuasions if they were sincere. And I could tell, because it's all fact-based stuff.

When you are presented with a fact that is indisputable and you reject the fact, then there's another reason why you're doing that. Okay, I'm sorry about that. I have nothing against Rachel Maddow at all. I'm you know she's made a success of herself and I'm in America that's not easy to do what she does I don't like Colbert I don't like him anything about him um and he's got two million people that watch him every night Carson had nine million and the two million is shrinking
