Episode Date: April 18, 2026

In the wake of JesusGate, MAGATS begin to question whether they've elevated the Antichrist. Twenty MAGATS tell Julius Geezer to pound sand in FISA vote. More from RFK's really bad, awful, no-good day. PsychoBibi thumbs his nose at Cankles Caligula and takes the starch out Nitwit Nero's "deal' with Iran. Sen. Tammy Duckworth hammers President Bonespurs in a truly epic jeremiad from the well of the Senate.

The password is smoke. Here we go, live from behind the corn phone curtain. It's head-on with Roxanne Kincaid. Three hours of cussin and discussing with America's only liberal transvillity elitist right here, right now, on the head-on radio network. Brought to you in part by Cole River Mountain Watch, who invites you to be part of the uprising against mountaintop removal, CRMW.net.

And now, from high in the hills of West by God, Virginia, here she is. Roxanne Kincaid. Well, howdy. And here we go, off and running on this 17th day of April, 2006. This is the horn. Headon. Dot Live is where you'll find us on the interweb tubes. That's where you go. If you'd like to be part of the merry, wacky, zanny, real-time madcap multimedia

extravaganza that is the horn chat room the old holler tree namely uh well our discord channel which you can access right there at head on dot live the chat function and it's also where we gather for our Friday on the front porch conversation and it is in fact Friday on the front porch um for those of you who are podcast members of the Horn Family Community Congregation. Thanks so much for sharing your time with us that way. If I could encourage you to please take a moment and continue to interact with the, and leave comments, remarks, reviews on the podcast, wherever you download it from,

sure would be helpful because, well, it just makes it more likely that we'll meet new friends. For those of you listening live, widget bot okay but at uh yeah and and uh the camel cardinal brother deacon said don't mind it i'm doing some testing on it so um no again about an hour we'll go over the river and through the woods to the old holler tree we sublet from the kebler elves and where we keep the aforementioned well the extraordinary ordinary round table in the aforementioned old holler tree around which we gather each and every Friday to cuss and discuss the issues of the week previous. Yeah.

And before anybody, wait a minute, I just know, I just know. I just saw who, yeah. Oh, okay. I thought I was going to get some grief for being a little bit late. But there's a damn good reason for it. If the brother Deacon wishes he can post it in the old holler tree, I mentioned yesterday because I knocked off a little bit earlier that I wanted to get everything ready to smoke the first pork shoulder of the season. And it went on at 1145 this morning.

And yes, in fact, it's going to just absolutely pour the rain tomorrow. So today was perfect. Today was just perfect weather to fire up the smoker. and goodness gracious. Oh, the smell of the hickory smoke. Oh, it's perfume. It's absolutely perfume. And they even had a couple of super thick cut pork loin chops that I sit on and let them go for a couple of hours.

I let them go a little too long. They got a little charred. But, oh, my goodness, gracious, the flavor. Heavenly days. But anyway, I set a photograph because I wanted Brother Deacon Asa and the rest of you to know. why I was late today. And so if he wishes, which is me saying, yeah, go ahead, he can pop that photograph into the old holler tree chat. And you all can see the first effort at, the first barbecue effort of 2026 here at the magnificent Kincaid mansion in the, and the, just, and that's just steps, that shoulder and the smoker just steps away from the,

door to the fabulous horn studios. I might even have to pop out and check on it. I don't want to let it go too long. And if you see the photo, you'll notice we've had that it's pulled away from the bone absolutely beautifully. And if you see it, just by way of being a barbecue geek, this is why I like. pork shoulder is better than I do, Boston Butts.

Because with a pork shoulder, you get that lovely layer of skin that protects the fat pad underneath and it just melts and it marries, and it bastes, it bastes the pork as it smokes and roasts. Oh, goodness me. I'm so glad to be a heathen and not have any creepy juvenile delinquent in the sky telling me that I can't have a good pulled pork pig barbecue sandwich

whee! Yeah But that's neither here and or there. Every program here at the horn begins with gratitude and this program is no different. So thanks go out to our 17th day of the month

subscribers via PayPal thanks so kindly to a labor man out in New Mexico and thank you to Cecilia thank you so much thank you both for being partial sponsors of the program and helping keep the program on the air

I got a lovely note from Cecilia and she sent me a picture of her fur baby She said, I made a donation via PayPal in honor of my beloved fur daughter, Ayoka. She would have turned 14 years in July. She had crossed the rainbow bridge when I found her in my backyard. Oh, she was my precious girl, loving, kind.

All four of my kitties loved her, and they played like siblings do. I wanted to make her journey peaceful and gentle, but alas, it was not to be. my beloved husband Les has Cherokee in his familial background Ayoka is Cherokee for she who brings happiness

that she did my donation is in her honor my heart is still broken but I truly believe that we gave her a loving home worthy of such a loving soul oh my heart just goes out to you Cecilia thank you so much and you can tell

oh what a bright What a bright face. What a loving smile. Oh, she, no. She had a wonderful home, and she had two absolutely loving humans. And apparently four kitty cat siblings who adored her as well. Thank you, Cecilia. That's so sweet and so kind.

It hurts. It hurts just thinking about it. and it was it's so here at the mansion the golden one has everything figured out it was a couple of nights ago

when he honest to Pete if he hears me okay he will tell me to get out the get out the air and clock out when eight o'clock comes around and if I don't he'll continue to tell me to clock out until I do

but last night I knocked off an hour early to do the barbecue, like I said. And while I did quit an hour early, lo and behold, he heard me doing the show close. And so when I walked through into the mansion, he was sitting there in the kitchen, just sitting there like a very, very good boy and smiling at me, just perfect posture. and I came through the door and he looked because he heard the show clothes. God, he's so smart and so sweet. So before I did anything else, before I got the pork shoulder out or, you know, wrenched off or patted down or rubbed or anything,

well, we had to go to the bedroom and he had to have his romp and chomp. so he got his treat and before he jumps up on the bed before I even get there and you know like any four year old loves nothing more than jumping up and down on a bed

and he sits there and he bounces oh so cute yeah I'm I'm smitten but we've known that for a while looked it up and he has

he found his forever home here on the 10th day of September, 2023. And every day with him has been absolute joy. On the day the butterfly landed on his nose.

Oh, the cuteness. It was so sweet I had to come in and do a rail of metformin. And the the spicy zoom raisins fascinate him. He doesn't want to attack the bumble bees, but he wants to play with them, and the carpenter bees,

because for some reason, well, it's a solid wooden door here, and that's why they like to hang out here at the studio door. I don't know. Has any other, has anyone else who hosts a radio program got bumble groupies? Because I swear, they're just out of sudden anything. and they're all just sitting there listening to the program. Hi, kids. Yeah. Jeremy, you are a very, very bad man. How's the Golden One's younger, darker replacement cousin coming along?

All the Flupy Snoodle is absolutely adorable. I saw her on, she is not a replacement. Nothing can replace the Golden One. but the Flupy Snoodle I saw her on FaceTime the other night and she's a total little sharp-tooth Doberman

love monster just she thinks she's still a little tiny little tiny itsy-bitsy little doby puppy and she tries to fit her great big not quite grown-up Doberman's self on Marky

his lap and just sits there and puts her head in the crook of Margie's neck and just snuggles the daylights out of it. Oh, it's sweet. Oh, but so where is the, where do we stand with the funding deficit? Ah, 2760, $2,760. That's nine days unfunded. And so that goes back to, let's see, there's five six seven eight nine yeah uh 2760 brutal hopefully we can hopefully we can knock some of that down this evening because uh there's only like nine broadcast days left in the month and we're nowhere near even halfway funded for keeping us on the air in may so fingers crossed and by the way, Ralphs, uh, thank you, Ralphs. Robert McGuire of crew just nailed Trump on blue sky.

What a line. Oh my goodness. Uh, Robert McGuire of crew saying, The only president or major party candidate in half a century not to disclose his tax returns, who fought for years at taxpayer expense to keep them private and lost, now wants the IRS to more than double his net worth at taxpayer expense as part of the systematic pillaging he calls a presidency. McGuire said that in response to a post, noting the IRS has confirmed it's negotiating with the Trump family to pay a settlement in the wildly defective lawsuit over the leak of his tax returns.

yeah he's less of a president more of a president shaped whole sucking the life out of the country i could not agree with you more mr mcgoyer sucking up anything that looks like money because he wants 10 billion dollars hey and so they're negotiating with no no god damn it this is an unwinnable lawsuit it's it as it as McGuire noted it's horrifically defective because he has terrible lawyers, like the little adolescent boy that he's trying to put on the Eight United States Circuit Court of Appeals. If you were listening to Malloy last night, you heard Tara and I discussing that guy nominated to be on the Eighth Circuit while at the same time representing Canckel's Caligula in front of the United States Supreme Court in regard to the entirely legal. and apt and appropriate judgment that judgments that E. Jean Carroll obtained.

And so Ralphs has a $25 challenge on the table. If anybody would like to meet that, yeah, the president-shaped hole sucking up anything resembling money challenge. Thank you, Ralphs. Thank you so much. No, no, Jeremy.

Jeremy's in a mood this evening. claiming that you hear dogs talk, doesn't that put you halfway to Pat Robertson replacement? No. No. That's just me interpreting, whereas apparently the former liquor supply officer and now pineapple supply officer in hell actually apparently had auditory hallucinations to hear him say it. It'd been again, Jeremy. Oh, my goodness gracious. Well, the fun continues with regard to the Jesus Gate AI post.

Now featuring Barack Obama laying his hand upon the forehead of a dead Trump saying, And I shall live in your head forever. Yeah, that's quality. And let's see. let's get started this way speaking of AI we all know about i presume we all know about the the DUI hire whiskey teat keg breath claiming to pray a prayer that was actually just a lift from no really uh from uh pulp fiction yeah well that got around pretty quick and You know, I don't endorse or in any way approve of these messages coming from Iran,

but you got to admit it. They're good. They're good at what they do. And having seen or heard about the prayer, they went after Whiskey Pete with another Lego video. That works a lot better when it's unmuted. Roxanne. What shall we do with the drunken hegsoth? What shall we do with the drunken heads of? What shall we do with the drunken hexaf? Who knew the mullah's new old English sea chanties? And up she rises, when up she rises early, a fox at before the show time. And little Lego

whiskey pete there. Uh, uh, just dumping a bottle of coffee jack. into his face on a Fox News set. I mean, they know their subject. And you know what? It also indicates a certain greater level of sophistication because, you know, this isn't some dirty, not recently bathed, bloodthirsty maniac standing in front of a black is-is flag,

hooting and grudding about the infidels. this isn't that this is designed because it's lego the lego people must be absolutely beside themselves it's not like they're going to sue iran uh yeah pulp fiction lee in new york noting the source of pete kegbreath's bible quotes not the source of nitwit nero's dance moves no that that's taken from an ancient an ancient dance ritual in which some fat bastard jerked off two camels at the same time yeah

he was drinking on the fox set before the showtime early in the morning carried out the strip club in his uniform and it's the little details like the name of the strip club in that scene the brick teas ah ha Yeah, as a Zecchio fiction is beset on all righteous man is beset on all sides.

That's a righteous man is beset on all sides. All side is Sandy one with a drunken exit. What shall we do with a drunken exit? What shall we do with a drunken exit early in the morning? Real Bible. In the morning. Yeah, that's the one. The link you sent me, Ralph, that's the one.

It's brilliant. And, you know, I do. I want to be clear. that, you know, the mullahs would lock my little noggin off in a second because I don't believe in their juvenile delinquent sky god any more than I believe in the Hebrew

juvenile delinquent and sky god nor the juvenile delinquent Christian sky god. Yeah. But they have made, I mean, can you imagine? It must be sweat condition alpha trying to make sure that nitwit Niro never sees these videos because, I mean, if he saw this, he might actually shit can whiskey Pete

because he's making, he's not just making a fool out of whiskey Pete, he's making a fool out of the entire maladministration. And the wild thing is, That was actually posted by stupeters. Real ST-E-W-P-E-T-R-S. Real stupiders. Oh, well, good times. Good times.

Okay. Randy Radar says, Once the office wanted to go out to a place called the Golden Banana, I declined. Don't like bananas? I bet they make a great daquery. Yeah. But we've got ever so much.

going to get into in the coming two and a half hours or so. I just wanted to, but I want to take this moment to share with you a clip from Ohio gubernatorial candidate Wewick Ramamama Ding Dong, who, well, when they go low, he goes absolutely slimy. his opponent is the Democrat Amy Acton. Amy Acton was sexually abused as a child. The scars that something like that leaves can be a lifetime getting over. And I don't know if you ever fully do get over it.

But she has talked about it because bringing things like child, sexual abuse out of the shadows and into the open is one of the things that one does to heal and to let others know that they that the survivors know that there's nothing to be ashamed of and that and that healing and recovery beyond mere survival is is is real and can happen so here then is we wake romolama ding dong. a creepy dude bro who made his fortune on a bullshit pharmaceutical

dodge talking to voters in Ohio the Buckeye State this is disgusting I'll warn you in advance trigger warning content warning it's only 15 seconds long

but God it turned my stomach We have a chance to elect a governor who, I hope I'll lay it out for you, a positive vision for our state versus a governor who has none at all other than to complain about what someone else did. That is the choice we faced. I'm so old that I can remember when the maggots threw a fit, teabaggers, Republicans, whatever they were then, about Ilhan Omar saying something. in regard to 9-11, 2001, someone did something to someone. Oh, God, they were mad. Woo, I mean,

they were going to eat all that they did kill. Oh, yeah. I wonder if they'll be as disgusted by Weewick, Ramalama Ding Dong, describing sexual assault as, what's that again? we wait we have a chance to elect a governor who i hope i'll lay it out for you a positive vision for our state versus a governor who has none and all other than to complain about what someone else did to her yeah so what someone else did to her you know uh as if uh oh i don't know

somebody cut in line in front of her at the grocery at the grocery check out you evil fucking piece of shit I hope I hope the survivor community in Ohio steps out and steps up and condemns him with every possible condemnatory term

for dismissing the agony, the pain, the misery that goes with being a survivor of childhood sexual abuse. And, of course, you know, at the same time, this is a guy who is a member of a party. It goes without saying that, well, doesn't give much of a damn

about the victims of childhood sexual abuse. After all, just ask we wake, and I'm sure Mr. Ramalama, ding-dong, will prove to you that he is, just like every other maggot, a pedophile protector. Wee-Wake stands with creeps. Yeah. Oh, I know, from Emilio. We-Wake bitterly complains when his cappuccino doesn't have the foam right. Where's my little coffee cup drawn in the phone?

Yeah. And back to the Trump dance, Jeremy points out. In the words of David Batista, he looks like he's jerking off two giraffes. Giraffes, camels, potato, potato, tomato, tomato. Mm-hmm. Dave Batista is awesome. So, there's that. There's a helicopter or something overhead. They must be a... They must smell the barbecue or something. Yeah, watch out middle America, speaking of which.

I said it's going to pour down the rain tomorrow here. No, that's a lawnmower. I guess the middle of the country may see, some parts of the country, they actually see snow next week, just like what Kurt was talking about a couple of nights ago. Yeah. I was going to pick the word splinter for the password this evening, but smoke won out.

They are splintering. They're falling apart. Twenty maggots in the House of Representatives turned their backs yesterday on both ordained Southern Baptist minister, Pastor, Brother, Minister Mullamoke, Moses, Mike Johnson, and Orange Jesus. Nitwit Niro, despite having complained

in years past about the four, and intelligence surveillance act and the court that exists to hear surveillance motions, he told the maggots to pass a five-year renewal. The Associated Press noting, first they unveiled a new plan that would have extended the program for five years with revolutions. decisions. Well, that thing flew like a lead Zeppelin. So they came back around and said, okay, how about 18 months? Nitwit Nero was demanding it. Mike Johnson was saying, Yoste, and 20 maggots joined all the Democrats that said, not just no, but hell no.

and so now they've extended the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act to April 30th because it was due to expire on Monday. The wrangling and the haggling and the bargaining went on late into the night last night and on into today before they finally came up with April 30th. it was Tuesday when nitwit Nero said you gotta stick together and pass a clean extension of Pfizer and among others Jim McGovern of Massachusetts said are you kidding me? Who the hell's running this place?

He called Mullah Moses Micah basically a no-one. Rokana applauded what had happened and he said we just defeated Johnson's efforts to sneak through a five-year FISA authorization tonight. Now they'll have to fight in daylight. But it's not just that. Oh, no, no.

There's even more to it. Now, even some of the maggots have started talking openly about the fact that they think the summer 2024 assassination attempt, ahem was you know faked and you know how a couple of nights ago i referenced what uh revelations um 133 well always ahead of the curve here so far out in front of the curve it's like we're on a straight road uh stop the steel creep alley alexander posted something to his telegram channel the fourth remembering telegram is owned by friends of poody over in mother russia Alexander said to be clear if Donald Trump didn't receive a miracle

then it was deception or a dark son there's biblical prophecy in revelation 133 apparently about the antichrist being struck on the head no allie Alexander you god damn dummy it's about the beast, they're different creatures. And as we noted the other day, and I saw that one of its heads seemed to have been mortally wounded, but this mortal wound was healed. Fascinated, the whole world followed after the beast. And over at Wired, they wrote, While the vast majority of people discussing conspiracy theories about the shooting today are

Trump supporters or former Trump supporters in the hours and days after the shooting, It was left-wing so-called blue-an accounts pushing the claims that the shooting was staged, suggesting it was all orchestrated by the Secret Service and that Trump had used blood gel packs in an attempt to draw sympathy in votes. Well, wired? You explain it then. You've got access to all manner of photographs of nitwit Nero's left ear. And there's not even a scar, not even a scratch. not even a scratch.

And as our dear friend, Dr. Allen, down in Texas, pointed out at the time, ear cartilage heals extremely slowly. Whereas he had the Kotex panty liner off of his ear not even 24 hours after the incident. It didn't look good on me. But he sure did make a fortune off of it. Fight, fight, fight, fight, and all of that. And, you know, testicle toasting tucky o'Rose Carlson. Yeah. He's part of it.

He sat, Carlson sat down with Joe Kent, the guy, the Nazi, let's make no mistake, the Nazi who quit Trump's, who got off the Trump train. over when Nitlit Nero started his war of choice with Iran, his illegal war with Iran, his unjust war with Iran.

Yeah. And Joe Kent said to Tuckio Rose, if you don't want to address that question, then you just go silent and say you can't ask that question because he said that the assassination probe was shut down prematurely.

which then creates people who come out of nowhere and they start drawing their own conclusions. One cucumber asked his 100,000 followers, how's everyone feel about the narrative surrounding the butler assassination attempt on Trump? And Wired says the majority of MJ Truth's followers, that's the cucumber, agreed that it was staged. One of them saying, oh, the truth will come out 60 plus years from now when we're all dead and nobody really cares anymore.

Just like JFK. Well, no, people still care about JFK. 60 years from now, we'll still be trying to clean up the damage and claw back the stolen money from nitwit Nero. and, you know, at this point in time, America's most crooked president, but God never underestimate the power of the Republican Party for venality, criminality,

because somewhere out there on the horizon, there's somebody, I know, hard to imagine, even more crooked than Donald Trump. No ear injury, says Lee, skeptically. Then explain. Why does he seem to not understand words? Wow, that's because he's a moron. Mm-hmm.

God. And, of course, earlier today, Nitwit Niro announced a ceasefire. Didn't hold up very long. Iran said that they had opened the strait of Vermuth. Remember, Scott Besson? Yeah. And Nitwit Niro said that he had told Psychobibi and his fascist cabinet in Israel to stop bombing Lebanon. Early today he said,

The USA, it will get all nuclear dust created by our great B2 bombers. No money will exchange hands in any way. way, shape, or form. And the deal is in no way subject to Lebanon either, but the USA will separately work with Lebanon and deal with the Hezbollah situation in an appropriate

manner. Israel will not be bombing Lebanon any longer. They are, all caps, prohibited from doing so, but the USA, enough is enough. They're prohibited. Well,

Psycho Beebe is not going to take language like that lying down. The ceasefire went into effect Thursday at 3 p.m. And after that, the Lebanese government said several Israeli attacks continued, as well as

intermittent shelling targeting a number of villages. Well, they're trying to I mean, this is not complicated to understand. Israel is trying to gauzefy and their own defense minister said as much,

Southern Lebanon, so that Israel can then go in, occupy, and steal that land. Yeah. At one Israeli drone strike, apparently killed one person in Bejahoon, Lebanon, after the ceasefire.

As well, Al Jazeera reporting, said the Lebanon 24 media outlet has reported that Israeli forces fire to machine. gun and artillery shell toward an ambulance team affiliated with the Islamic Health Authority in Canine in the Navatia government of southern Lebanon casualties have been reported so it just a wonder has anybody told nitwit Mero that uh bebi his dear dear friend you know his owner along with Pouti has essentially told him to go and pound sand. And then there's the man who looks like rancid hot dog water smells.

Yeah, I did, Ralph's, the whole Pete Keg-breath Pulp Fiction sermon is what inspired the latest, what shall we do with the drunken Hegsseth Lego video from Iran. but yeah Bannon Bannon got big mad recently you might recall that people weren't

clapping sufficiently or screaming or hooting or hating sufficiently at the C-PAC meeting in Texas well I'm sorry Stevie 3 shirts addressed the

semifore world economy 2026 summit and he talked about how he's going after John Cornholio down in Texas because he's a big Ken Paxton fan. It's really rough when he goes to all the trouble to actually shave and comb back his greasy locks and then gets mocked and derided.

Look at John Cornyn. John's Cornyn spent $80 million to $100 million, the same old playbook to destroy Ken Paxson. And we went down to Texas with Gertfielders and Glenn Beck in January. We had a proposition on the ballot. We put a proposition on it to galvanize people. That was to prohibit Sharia law in the state of Texas.

Also to have, that's funny. Is that funny? Yeah, prohibiting Sharia law. That's hilarious. You're going to see how funny it is. We're prohibiting Sharia law in Texas, and we're going to shut down. A lot of this nonsense is going on.

The next thing we're going to shut down is H-1B visas. How about Cannon Law? How about telling us? muddick law. Ah, well. But the fact that now there are maggots who are laughing at the man who looks like rancid hot dog

water smells, it says everything. People in the United States, citizens of this country are not prepared to have this. You may think it's funny. Folks in Texas don't think it's funny. Folks in South Carolina don't think it's funny. And this is that seething anger right below

the surface. Because the global elites, you sit there and mock these people. like they don't count like African Americans don't You dumb bastard You're a global elite Working class whites don't count That is the backbone of this country And trust me

That is a latent political power That is being turned into a political Wait wait wait Black folks Are suddenly going to line up Behind a Sharia law referendum and do the bidding Of this

Corpulent former naval officer United States Navy, what the fuck is wrong with you? But then again, United States Army, what the fuck is wrong with you? The Army commissioned Whiskey Pete, the Navy commissioned this dirty creep? Wow.

Power, so no, we're going to ban Sharia law in this country. We've already designated in Texas, the Muslim Brotherhood and Care as terrorist organizations as is many in the Gulf Emirates. So no, this is very serious. We got two million votes on their proposition,

and galvanize the Paxton team to actually now lead, I think, Cornyn by 8% with no money. Cornyn has spent $80 to $100 million. Lindsay Graham right now, the globalist, is under 50% in South Carolina. So the populist movement, when you look at really victories we can have, is more powerful than ever, and it's only going to get more powerful over. Yeah, dumbass, don't mention the fact that James Tala Rico is polling better than either one of those two maggots. you're sitting there talking about. Time.

So laugh all you want. But he who laughs last laughs best. And the people in this country are not going to tolerate what you stand for. You stand for the destruction of this country,

the sovereignty of this nation. And you look for the destruction of American citizens. The system that is going to come in place is not simply America first. It's American citizens first. As if he gives a good

goddamn about working class Americans. He's his this is a theocrat in his own right. He tried to set up what, some sort of fascist, Roman Catholic monastery in Italy? Yeah?

But he's having a hard time, Stevie three shirts is, because among other things in a viral video clip, at his again at the semaphore conference there was a moment where and this isn't doctored or anything where it looked like he pissed himself your fans are your fans are here or one of them you'll thank you sir i want to thank my agent um so i was just thinking we we were here a year ago

talking about the administration talking about magad i think then it felt like your wing of the republican party was ascendant first of we were ascendant on those policies and will be ascended again. President Trump just announced, I think. And the whole, of basically how the administration has gone so far, I've got a period. And the whole time he's sitting there and the crotch of his pants are stained. That's it for me a little like there was a period where it just felt like this was, this was, you know, Steve Bannon flood the zone being quoted constantly. And really the policies were coming from the populist wing. And it felt, I don't know, I guess, I put it at,

the first Iran bombing when it felt like that stopped and we went in a different direction. But how do you see it? Well, because remember time, so we'll have to pick that up. Thank you, Steve. He gets he pissed himself and didn't even know about it. Some people, oh no, that's a shadow. That's not a piss stain. That's a shadow.

but well the internet world wasn't having it so Steve Bannon pissed his pants today and we're all supposed to just not talk about it but I don't know if I can hold it

did Steve Bannon pee his pants if Steve Bannon cannot hold his urine can he help hold the house but the best of all was someone who said oh that came from the back that's a doo-do Oh, these, God, these stupid, god, damn fascists. Yeah, so here we are.

We're at the top of the second hour of the program. And Micah says, oh, Stevie 3 shirts is going after H-1B visas? Did they check with their corporate over? lords about that? I mean, I'm all for that. They're abused as hell in my industry, but somehow, I doubt they'll fix it. Of course not. It's just all red meat for the white supremacists and so forth that make up the maggot base. Jesus. And now they're even laughing at the maggots over on CNN. Where, oh, what's this creep's name? Well, it all had to, it was all a conversation having to do with, you know, the war with,

that Mitt Witt Niro has started with the Pope. That's a loser. Casey Hunt was holding down the fort over there. Well, here we go. It's back. Brad Todd, this back and forth between the president and the Pope, your face, I feel like everyone should see Brad's face. Yeah, there it is. So she burst out into laughter.

She's loving that. I am taking a lot from your face, but if you could kind of let our viewers into how you are thinking about this, of course. I mean, Peggy Noonan, speech writer to Ronald Reagan. Ronald Reagan, who had a singular relationship with Pope John Paul II, amid the fall of communism, among other things. That, of course, the sort of arc of history here. And then there's the brass tax politics of today, which seem to be, if our, you know, the handful of folks we talked to at the Turning Point USA conference are any indication,

seems to be a little bit problematic. I'm not Catholic. I have theological problems with Catholicism. But so let's start there. I can get my disclaimer out. The president should not be picking a fight with the Pope. And that goes, by the way, is true if you're a Democrat president who's picking a fight with the Pope on his right-to-life position. It's the Pope's job to stand up for Catholic teaching. And it's his job to be an advocate for peace and turning in the other cheek.

And it's the advocate of commanders-in-chief sometimes to wage war that serve a purpose to protect their people. And so I think everyone kind of needs to know their lane here. and I think it's also bad politics. You know, religiosity increasingly is reflected in your partisanship. They're far more Republicans who are devout than Democrats. And Catholics have been the group who's moved the most to the right. So for the president's own coalition, I think trying to divide Catholics and make them pick between their president and their pope is bad politics.

Well, in speaking of the politics, I mean, the Catholic Church and Catholics in America had had a long affiliation with the Democratic Party. Going back to Al Smith, then JFK, and then Joe Biden, even, you know, and the fact that there has been a shift within the Trump party. And you've actually seen that reflect on the fact that J.D. Vance converted to Catholicism before he ran for Senate and just before this fight announced that he has written a book about his conversion to Catholicism right before Trump got in a fight with the new Pope. And the other thing, just not just on substance, it's not a good idea to pick on the Pope

and Peggy Noonan laid it out beautifully. He's a more popular figure both globally and the United States and the President is. And you just look at the numbers, the President. is underwater by, I believe, 11 or 12 points. The Pope is overwater by 30 or 35 points or so. He's just more popular. As Pope's tend to be. As Pope's tend to be, you're picking a fight with someone who's more popular.

This is why people are constantly mocking congressional Democrats because their popularity is so low. You win when you attack them. You don't win when you go after the Pope. Well, but you're also, and he's also attacking him when the Pope is just saying, no war and treat migrants with respect. I would think the vast majority of Americans agree with those two statements. And your point on how Catholics have gone over to the Republican Party, both of you've made this point.

I am a Catholic, born and raised, Latina. Everyone I know is Catholic in the Latino community. I mean, the Latino community has a strong sort of Catholic faith when it comes to that. And a lot of the reasons why Democrats did not win in 2024 is because that key demographic didn't feel like Democrats were talking to them. They didn't, when it came to social issues, when it came to choice, a number of other issues, and they felt that the Republican values were more aligned with their values. Now we are seeing that demographic go towards Democrats, and things like this do not help with that key electorate that Republicans would need to win. And you know what else plays into that, you know, Catholic shifting more toward Democrats?

they've had a couple of years to ponder the effects of getting their fondest wish, namely forcing every woman in America to adhere to the teachings of the church, namely in not being able to get reproductive care. So women are dying across America, and some of them are undoubtedly Roman Catholic women. As a story from ProPublica pointed out recently, the Texas Medical Board has sanctioned three doctors for delaying care that led to two pregnant women dying. Portia Nguemezi and Nevea Crane both died during miscarriages in Texas.

And the state's medical board has said that the substandard general judge, care they received from their physicians caused their deaths and they've ordered the doctors to, you know, get extra training. Well, it doesn't, I mean, okay, but

that would not have happened were it not for the draconian bloodthirsty bill that became law in Texas after Dobbs versus Jackson women's whole health.

You know, the make women bleed out in the floorboard of their car bill and case. Reporters for ProPublica found that abortion bans have influenced how doctors and hospitals respond to pregnancy complications. Facing risks of prison time and professional ruin, doctors have delayed key interventions until they can document that a fetus's heart is no longer beating or that a case meets a narrow legal exception. Some physicians say their colleagues are discharging or transferring pregnant patients instead of taking responsibility for their care. They go on, ProPublica does, and say, Doctors and Lawyers have questioned why medical boards which oversee physician licensing and investigate substandard care have not played a more active role in guiding doctors on how to uphold medical standards within the constraints of the law. When asked by ProPublica in 2024, what recourse miscarrying patients had when a doctor's,

denied the necessary treatment. The president of the Texas Medical Board, I'm sure he's a good Christian, said it had no say over criminal law, but that patients could file a complaint and vote with their feet to seek care from another doctor. And they also bring back to mind the case of Amber Thurman in Georgia, where doctors did not try to clear out her uterus,

which had gone septic. for over 20 hours. Those doctors have not been disciplined at all. God, what a horror. And of course, it's not just pregnancy. There are other cases of medical horrors out there. Over in the Buckeye state, they've begun dumping nursing home patients.

This is horrifying. One fire department noting that a woman on a walker who was injured and had been given a bag of her medicines had no idea of where in the world she was was just dumped at the fire station

when the nursing home I guess stopped getting paid. Gee, why would would the nursing home stop getting paid. Maybe somebody might want to ask Leon Scum. Or better yet, nitwit Niro. Or that, that, that monster Russell vote. That's someone's grandma.

That's someone's mama. No matter. Maga, y'all. Maga. It's just sickening. But let's, uh, let's go ahead and pop on over of the old holler tree and see what's going on over that away. Here we go.

Ah, thank you, A, so you posted the barbecue in the chat room. That's cool. I'm probably going to have to take a moment here soon and go outside and pull it, take it off the smoker. I don't want to wind up with smoked charcoal. Hey, Jeremy, how are you? Yeah, guys. Just, well, who might tune in or join the room later?

in the text chat in here, I found an old clip just by instance last night of Mr. Stress playing with his band. Oh, how cool. She popped up at a randomly popped up, so I put it in there and he's a full harmonic and singing. What a singing voice that man had? My God. Oh, yeah. He was something. Other than that, I mean, I think I sent you an email saying that miraculously, last Saturday, my medical issues came to a quick and our bolts.

stop and it was all fixed in one day. Nice. So I guess occasionally losing your temper in the right situations sometimes pays off. I mean, I'm guessing it's because I went directly to my insurance carrier

and they knew how mad I was and I stressed how much I pay a month and this is unacceptable that they pushed it as fast as they could and told them to fix this like pronto. Yeah, good. The ironic part was, I think I told you, I also have a, not really high, it's higher than it has been for a few years deductible.

I think past years has been $450 before they'll do anything for me on top of my monthly premium. Well, this year, because I had to drop lower plans because I couldn't afford $1,500 a month, it went to $5.50. Well, they shipped my issues, my product, without charging the $5.50 deductible. they just just shipped it for the copraise so they're probably to come up me on the back end and say oh the deductible but at least they push it out so I'm good for three and a half months

before I should start worrying about this again thankfully at least that part of it that would be nice if you didn't have to worry about it at all yeah well that's never going to happen being a type one it's something that hard to explain never goes on

I mean I know I get to type one part, the bureaucratic nightmare part. No, that's perfectly fine. It's the best Medicare system in the world, Robin. What can I complain about? We're better than the rest of the world. Even though those asshole countries, which we've heard so much about, all have a single-payer Medicare for all their citizens. I mean, Africa, Cuba, you name it. They all pay for their citizens' health care over everything else. So anyway, I'm trying to think. Any other

Earth shattering news. I can't think of anything. I mean, it's the same old craziness. I mean, I guess I'm kind of like you. I'm not really, I'm going to try to put this carefully. I'm not rooting for Iran, but you know you're in a strange place when they don't have to lie anymore in their propaganda,

and it becomes truth. Yeah, there's something. Yeah, there was nothing in that, what shall we do with the drunken keg? breath video that wasn't true. I mean, there's one they put out was it two weeks ago or Trump talking about, ooh, America first.

He goes, uh-uh, you stole that too. And we know that. He took that from a movement from beginning in the century. But yes, so, I mean, it's an ironic place where even with this whole, you know, like I thought it was a doctor, that was so hard

hitting. People who I object to in every form that they are, I agree with saying that's a bridge too far. I'm not supporting him, but I mean, when Iran says, hey, we get the Pope's back, something's going on. Yeah, but let's be clear. Iran would lop the Pope's head off, too.

If they could, but I know what they're doing. They're playing devil's advocate, which means you're in favor of the devil. I get it. I get it. But other than really that, I don't have a, and it looks like Kevin popped in. If Kevin wants to talk for a little bit, for more people come in, I'm willing to surrender my mic and get back to what I'm doing. I need to get home a little earlier.

I have to do up with the driving tomorrow, so I'd like to get home in a decent hour this morning. Yeah, your humble Ostice is hoping to be on the road tomorrow too, taking the aforementioned barbecue up, or Ms. Victoria. I'm driving before 9 a.m., because I'm leaving at 9. I probably won't get out that early, but the earlier I get out, the better off. I am because I guess there's a significant chance.

Like I said, it's just going to pour the rain all the way. Ugh. It's supposed to pour here from tomorrow evening through Sunday into Monday, and I'm one of those states where they said we could see an inch or two of snow. It's probably the last hurrah of it, the one that annoys people, but it's a distinct possibility. And yesterday it was 72. Today it was high 60s.

It was nice, but it's a fault spring for a few more weeks probably, really, honestly. Although the grass that I'm looking at right now, probably we need to be mowed in the next week or so because of the rain we've had all week long. Oh, yeah, we're going to have to fire up the mower here pretty quick, too. And I could hear the mower earlier. I was going to give you grief for it when I started hearing it, but you call it out too quickly. You sabotaged me, but I can hear it like, oh, there's a mower in the background now. Like I said, at first I thought it was an aircraft or a helicopter or something, because, we've had stuff flying over us.

And look, you know, I'm not a paranoid or anything, but I'm pretty rural, and the stuff that passes over us is generally at 30,000 feet, with the exception of the occasional medevac chopper, or the 1943 Boeing Stearman that a pilot over in Fayetteville uses to take, take, you know, tourists on joy flights up over the bridge and stuff like that. Sometimes he'll even do aerobatics with them if their stomach is strong enough. He does a very good emmellman and a very good hammerhead. Yeah, good stuff.

Yeah, we have a guy, we still have a guy here. He's a stunt pilot, but he also, I think he broke a lands. speedwrecker on the Utah Stalk Flat. He was one of those guys with a rocket-powered car. I want to say in the 90s, I think the first person had surpassed 300 miles on the ground or something crazy like that, but he has one of

those little biplanes and does different on the 4th of July and different things. A couple years ago, on the way back home, sadly, his engine on his plane failed. He bailed out and crashed on the interstate about 10 miles from his house. He survived and bought

a new plane with the insurance, but I mean, these things happen. But actually I thought one more thing, a couple more things. Interesting things. I'm going to bring up someone that you're not a human fan of because of his jokes. I'm going to guess what I want to talk about. Dave Chappelle?

Dave Chappelle did an interview. I've seen pieces of it. And in one part, the interviewee asks him, or maybe the interviewer, I guess he's interviewing. Ask him about his jokes about a certain segment of Americans. And he said,

essentially he never really was trying to target them, and he barely disturbed how really politics took it up and ran with it, meaning, the right wing. That was interesting. And also, based a pull up a story last night, I don't know if you can share it with you. Evidently, Dave Chappelle's local NPR channel in his hometown was going to fail because of the public funding being cut. He saved it. He bought it. I mean, so I... Good for you.

I guess I mean it's... Good, good for him. You know, I guess sometimes, sometimes the, uh, local, uh,

buzzards enjoy the peanuts and shit, too. I'm trying to say is I don't think he's an evil guy. He's not completely, I mean, or maybe it was in poor judgment, giving where we're headed in the world. But I don't think he's an outright evil person. But anyway, just I bring this up just for, you know,

a different point of view and things. Yeah, no, I loved what he said about the, about the Republicans, you know, that the minute he came out and said vile, detestable, nasty, filthy, ugly, repulsive things about trans people, that all of a sudden he said, oh, all these Republicans were coming up to me and saying, hey, I guess he was on Capitol Hill, they were kind of say, hey, can I take a selfie with you? And I took a bunch of selfies, and then there's Lauren Bobert. and I'm like, yeah, okay, and then she goes out and posts, see, Dave Chappelle knows there's only two genders, too.

And he didn't like that because he was making bank on hating trans people. He resented maggots making bank on his stick. Great guy. That's your point of view, Robert Monroe, just separate views on that one. It's okay, I understand. I get it, and I'm one of the people he picked on, but I don't take it as a bunch of the front, but that's just me. but anyway

yeah Kevin take it away I'm gonna go back to work now I need to get done earlier if you want to talk Hey how's it going Jeremy Hey Kevin how are you not Jeremy but yeah I know

I know I heard what Jeremy's saying about the run around he was getting I'm getting a run around too with oh no that new Radikovic drug yeah it's like but blue cross federal

um they denied me so my neurologist put in an appeal yeah i think i think kevin got discorded as we call it kevin

if you can hear us we can't hear you go out and come back in oh no he's back there he is there you are Kevin okay uh did you guys hear me well you said your the last thing we got was that your doctor had put in an appeal.

Yeah, let me try to move into my living room where the router is. I don't know. Yeah, so we put in an appeal, and I went down and signed papers for that. And this is probably part of the game, I guess, you know, when you have a drug that costs, you know, like, 130-something thousand. Yeah. I think Kevin's having a hard time maintaining his connection. Are you back? Yeah, okay, you're back, Kevin.

or you were hold on what about now yeah you're good all right I'm gonna stay in one position here I was walking that's why I was

so uh yeah like so like the yeah well get there did you hear me uh no

the last thing was this sucks oh god what is wrong I just paid for freaking internet you know let me hang up and call back

okay that's fine sometimes sometimes discord's just weird unfortunately yeah there's a strong possibility it's not him it's discord that's why I said leave the first time but it sounded like he was getting better but it wasn't it could just be discord

but now you're going quiet too no I'm actually just lining up the story in case we have a hard time getting Kevin back I'll go ahead and jump into that You know, yesterday we had a gift that just keeps on giving in the form of whalehead dead bear, Vosh Bear, brainworm, lamprey, Jr., you know, pulling off on the side of the road and dissecting a raccoon penis out of a roadkill. Well, today, whalehead, etc., etc., etc., appeared before the,

oh, what, the, well, a congressional committee, the House Committee on Education and Workforce, and he took a question from Virginia, a double X Fox, piece of work, and she asked him about a new study out from Denmark, about Tylenol.

And here we go. I have heard today that a new Danish study just came out finding no connection between Tylenol and autism. What is your reaction to that study? The study is a garbage study. It should be retracted. A study took a million, the medical records of a billion Danish women and compared women who got Tylenol during pregnancy to people who did not. The problem is the way it determined whether they got Tylenol. during pregnancy was by prescriptions. Only 2% of the people in the study of Tylenol during pregnancy according to the endpoint.

So anything that refutes his bat-shit crazy claim that Tylenol during pregnancy is bad, you know, Tylenol being the one pain reliever that pregnant women can actually use because the other ones really are dangerous. Oh, here, have an aspirin, Mama. Oh, it's a bad study. And the fact that it's from prescriptions in Denmark, well, does that mean the Tylenol is different? No.

The only thing different about Tylenol in Europe is that they call it by a different name, not acetaminopin, but paracetamol. And they found out that the guy who cuts out raccoon penises, saws the heads off of dead whales, dumps dead bears in Central Park, and lets Lampreys latch onto his arm and suck out his blood.

Yeah, the doctors, the real doctors who do the study, they're the crazy ones. Over at the University of Pennsylvania, in their public health and preventive medicine department, Dr. Jeffrey S. Morris, he also directs the division of biostatistics at Penn, said he overlooks the fact that the paper acknowledged an earlier Danish research directly examined

the potential bias from low-dose non-prescription use. More critically, the children who should be at greatest risk under his framework have no elevated risk of autism noting this as a limitation would be intellectually honest calling for retraction dismissing the study outright along with all the other literature failing to support his narrative is not and and I appreciate Dr. Morris's

thoroughness with those quotes but at the end of the day it seems like it's much more easily described by simply noting that Bobby Kennedy is a goddamn psychopath with no actual medical training who has a a definable, discoverable record of looking for pharmaceutical companies to sue to line his own pockets. And of course, add into that the fact that when he started his ranting and raving about Tylenol, Nitwit Niro jumped in behind him and said, well, you know, pregnant women just need to tough it out. Yeah, if they've got a fever.

Just tough it out. Doctors across the country said, wow, that's reckless and irresponsible. Yeah. Are you back, Kevin? Tough it out like he has between loyal to lateral. Yeah, I'm back. Can you hear me? Yeah. Okay.

Yeah, so I looked up a thing where if they don't accept the appeal, usually three times a charm. Third times a charm. Somebody else steps in. I forget who, but, and that usually works. So I'm hoping it doesn't go that far. I hope it goes, you know,

this second round here, this one appeal. It was like, like I said, it's like 100, $135 a month that I would have pay out of my pocket for this, which is manageable. and so there's this company called Journeymate.

I'm trying to find out what they're all about. It's one word, not two separate words. And apparently they're affiliated with, they're affiliated with Radacaba, the drug manufacturer itself. Yes. Hopefully I don't lose you guys. You're still here. Yeah, so I got that right away.

It's welcome, you know, welcome kit. Radikava O-R-S is the name of the drug. And another word for it is Edivaron, E-D-A-R-A-V-O-N-E. That's another name for the drug. So that's like the main ALS. Yeah. that they have some kind of a financial thing too where they can help you pay but it seems to me I don't know there's will probably cost more obviously they would step in if your insurance

is going to step in and you know I I really don't know how much I would have to pay but it would probably be a lot even with their help you know but not much I can't really. can find out about Journey Made Online. That's what's a little sneaky about them. Yeah, that would, that would perk my pink little ears up if they don't have an online presence in 2026. I mean, you do a search for. Go ahead, Jeremy. So if you get desperate, you can always use Trump or X.

It'll be a good 30, 40% more depending on what you choose. Jeremy Hodge. He's offered you that deal. I know, Jeremy's been to the ringer, man. Jeremy's been to it all. God damn it. but yeah hopefully we'll get this thing straightened up by next week I'm still doing all right you know I'm still managing myself around here so and then there's other clinical trials that

they have that I registered for well I didn't register for the trials themselves but I have the information as to the locations stem cells being among them so but but you know, I saw, I sent you, Robin, a copy of texted something about the Navy and the not supporting our sailors over in the Gulf. Did you get that? Yeah, that's deeply disturbing. Tell folks. Yeah. Yeah, if you want to, like, you know, it's just like they're not getting their mail.

They're not getting their packages. It's inexcusable, inexcusable for that kind of operation. Right, and let's understand this is, you know, this goes back to, well, like the debacle in the desert, you know, Iraq. Remember the famous Dunesbury cartoon where the soldiers in the mess tent and he says, I'll have a haliburger with cheese and they say that'll be $29. there are so many support elements of the military that have been, you know, because Republicans, privatized and taken over by the so-called private sector. And one of the things all the way back during Iraq that was a problem was getting the mail through. And here we are again.

It's coming painfully more and more obvious that the opposed-down pilot rescue. nothing more than an attempt on us reading where they thought the nuclear material was and we failed badly no we're having some jim dandy discord problems this evening the cat comes strolling in see rogers over there too i don't know if he can talk i think he said something about he didn't have access where he was but he could be in the chat room yeah roger is popping in and out well i am going to have to take a brief break here in a few minutes we'll i'm going to we will at what, 645 Eastern, I'll pass the seven-hour mark.

Yeah, I'll pass the six-hour mark on the smoker, so I need to go and take it off. On a brief technical note, Robin, I say this morning, this afternoon when I woke up, I always check everything first. You've heard of bed. And I saw you and Tara were trying to record probably from Malloy tonight. In the future, you both have access to it.

There's a room below this room. Well, I know. Yeah, we've tried, I've tried using that, and it doesn't work for either of us. It doesn't make any sense. You should have access to it and no one else can see it. I'll look into it. Maybe there's a setting I haven't tweaked. I'll look into it.

My bad. Okay. I just feel crazy saying it, but now you've said it's not working. I'll look into it. Okay, thanks. Okay, cool. Yeah. I've thought about that because there have been a, there have been a case.

since when she and I have been recording and popped in and there was someone else there. Well, that's what I'm trying to do is to awkwardly someone pops in, not noise going on. You have to stop or edit the recordings. That's why I'm trying to preserve it for you and make it easier for you guys, make it private. So I'll work on it. I'll let you know when I figure it out. Okay, thank you. I appreciate it, Jeremy.

Can you see what Tammy Duckworth did yesterday on the center floor, too? I don't, I didn't see what she did, but I know that there was some really sleazy behavior on the part of the maggots. with regard to her. Really, not surprised. Let me see a second. No, she just called. Good, good. No, please continue.

It's on YouTube. It's on YouTube. It's on YouTube. 16 minutes long. She went to her floor and just really laid it off. Yeah, there it is. There it is. I don't have her remarks yet, but

this is from two days ago. The U.S. Army. had a network of official social media accounts. It was called Soldier for Life. And, well, they decided that they were going to honor Tammy Duckworth. Because, you know, veteran gave two legs to dim leaders' stupid illegal war in Iraq. And so, again, they were honoring her with a tribute, you know, just a post celebrating her service. Well, this led some asshole by the name of Chase Spears, an Afghan vet and former paratrooper.

I guess he got, Chase got triggered and said she's one of the most brazenly hostile partisans to have war. the uniform. There are so many warriors worthy of being praised, men and women who didn't sell their souls along the way, but this is who Dan Driscoll, the Secretary of the Army continues going out of its way

to pay homage to. And right after that, they locked down the whole page. Every member of the Soldier for Life program just locked down. A Maggot Spokes, a at spokescriep said, oh, it's simply a circumstance of the army handling routine army

bosom. And I guess maybe this has something to do with what Senator Duckworth said when she was questioning him, questioning Driscoll during his confirmation hearings, she pushed him to say that he would refuse illegal orders from the Trump administration. She went on and voted against him. And of course, she's also called for the resignation of Whiskey Pete. What a POS. One butt hurt maggot.

And that was enough. Let me see if I can find the YouTube link to the remarks. which you referenced. Yeah, it was pretty good. I thought it was pretty good. That was yesterday? I believe it was yesterday. I just punched up Tammy Duckworth's Senate Floor.

Okay, yeah, I think that, yeah, there it is. All right. Let's give a listen. Frankly, I may play a little bit of hooky and go pull the shoulder off. There you go. Pull the shoulder off. Have a beer along the way. I can't drink.

I can't drink that. fast anymore. I know, I know. Okay, here we go. Senator Tammy Duckworth, with her take on the war nitwit Nero started against Iran, and apparently she pulled no punches. I'm just going to let it run, and I'm going to crank up the monitor so I can hear it while I'm moving back and forth. Senator from Illinois. Thank you, Mr. President. I've come to the Florida Day as a United States senator, of course, but also as a former soldier who served in uniform the last time a president rationally sent our men and women into an unjustified war in the Middle East. I spent nearly a year at Walter Reed Army Medical Center, recovering from the injuries I earned in Iraq. And every morning,

as I struggled to sit up straight, every time I was rowed into yet another surgery, I made sure to read the poster I had next to my hospital bed. It was a framed copy of the soldier's creed, the words that those lucky enough to wear the army uniform live by. That same frame copy now hangs by my desk here in D.C. And as I glanced at it this morning, I realized that there's perhaps no greater proof that Donald Trump never deigned to serve a day in his life than the mockery he makes of the soldiers creeds' commitments

every single day he has been in office. The creed may be associated with the army, but the sentiments hold true for all of those who wear the uniform of this great nation. Its 13 lines tells us to be disciplined, physically and mentally tough, trained, proficient, and to look out for those who look out for us, to look out for one another. Donald Trump is supposed to be our service members' commander-in-chief. The very least we should expect of him is to epitomize the standards that we ask our troops to swear by, to live by.

The very, very least we should expect of the commander-in-chief is to be as competent. disciplined and professional as the men and women whose very lives hinge on his capacity to lead on that competence and professionalism we expect to see in the White House. The creed makes clear that our troops will never quit, that they will never leave a fallen comrade behind, yet Cadet Bonespurs is someone who will always quit. And every hour he orders our service members to remain in unnecessary growing danger, he is proving that, that Donald Trump does not give a damn about leaving a comrade, or so, so many comrades behind. Every moment that Donald Trump leaves our heroes mired in the muck of this illegal war of choice in Iran,

he is showing that he cares more about saving his own face than leading our troops. So I come to the floor today with a simple question. Our military men and women go out there every day and do their jobs, no matter the risk, all on Donald Trump's orders. So I asked you, Mr. President, why the hell can't you do your job too? Why can't you live up to the same level of proficiency as our troops?

Look, I'm proud of every mission I completed in Iraq, but I would never ever wish another endless, needless, unjustified war like the one I served in on anybody else. I wouldn't wish it on the heroes who are packing up their rocks right now, knowing they may never touch American soil again. I wouldn't wish it on their families, who are being forced to spend their days, anxiously awaiting news from half a world away.

And I wouldn't wish it on the American people who want their president to focus on bringing the costs down here at home, not starting new, expensive, taxpayer-funded wars continents away. But Trump either doesn't understand, or he simply doesn't care about that. From the moment this conflict began, the president has tried to shroud his incompetence behind the valor of our service members. When asked to justify his illegal actions,

Donald Trump's tried to hide his cowardice behind our hero's courage. He's tried to act as if questioning why we're at war is the same as questioning the skill and bravery of our troops themselves. It isn't. And I'm here to call bullshit on the president of the United States because I know that our military will always do the best job possible. When given a mission, our service members will say,

yes, I will serve. They don't say, why me? They don't ask, will I be safe? No. They dust off their boots, they show up, and they do what's asked of them, to the best of their ability every single time, time after time, tour after tour, no matter the risk, no matter the sacrifice. They will always, always execute their orders to the maximum capability of their professionalism, and they are proud to do it. That isn't the problem. The problem here is that the person who's supposed to be leading them spends more time talking about his Marie Antoinette ballroom than he does sitting in a situation room trying to get us out of this war.

The problem is the guy who claims to be making America great again, looks at the word America, and only sees the letters M&E in the middle of it. The problem is that the commander-in-chief not only has no idea what the end state is like for his war, of choice, but properly doesn't even know what the term end state means at all. The problem is that even in the last two weeks, the man who is in charge of our nation's nuclear codes has himself gone increasingly nuclear. He's not believing literal war with Iran is enough. He's now gone on to proverbial war with the Vatican, choosing to pick fights with the Pope of our

people. The Pope. Rather than try to engage in any semblance of real, diplomacy to end the conflict in the Middle East. He's threatened to annihilate an entire civilization, terrifying people overseas and here at home who are understandably worried about retaliatory strikes. And now, after one half-ass day of so-called negotiations with Iran, he's whipsawed to the next risky frontier in the region, a dangerous, complex, partial military blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, launching it at our national nation's expense with no justification, no explanation, or any real plan of what comes next. His only plan seems to rely on the valor, the willingness to sacrifice the professionalism

of our military men and women. But let me tell you, that is not enough. They need a true commander. But Trump is Trump, and he is actively unabashedly telling us how to ignore what we are all seeing with our own eyes. He's trying to declare mission accomplished, despite his obvious failures at every single turn. He's declaring, and I quote, we did it. We're winning after all signs point to the opposite. We're still at war. Americans are still at risk. Civilians across the region are still dying for no reason that anyone can truly articulate. In reality,

the only thing that Donald Trump has accomplished over the last six weeks is more chaos. Because of his choices, a new younger Ayatollah is in charge, who seems even more radical than his father was. 13 American heroes have been killed with hundreds more wounded. More goats are parents are grieving their children. And more American families are struggling to afford the spiking gas prices. They're unsure if they can pay even more every time they go to the gas station. but they have to because they need to get to work. They've got to take their kids to school. They've got to take their aging parents to the doctor.

The farmers of Illinois, the farmers of this great nation, have seen at the time that we should be planting their input costs skyrocket because of Donald Trump's war of choice. Look, war is always tragic. But when it's preventable, when it's unjustified, it's not just tragic. It's a travesty. Trump wouldn't let himself be dragged by the bonespurs to serve in Vietnam.

So how dare he drag our nation into a war of his choice today? But this draft dodger, this five-time draft dodger, is too infatuated with maximum pressure to make a serious effort at even minimum diplomacy. Once again, the Trump foreign policy doctrine has proven reckless, senseless and dangerous, a doctrine in which fact and fiction are one in the same, one in which our commander-in-chief seems to come to military decisions by virtue of temper tantrums and announces them via tweet in the middle of the night,

and one in which Averis outweighs advice every single time. Look, unlike Trump, I actually know what it's like to leave your blood soaking into the desert sand a half a word away. So I know what it's like, I know what it's like, and what is at stake for the troops this administration is sending into harm's way. We must safeguard their valor and their professionalism by doing our jobs. I can tell you this. It's a whole lot easier to cover your eyes and order other Americans to sacrifice their children and sacrifice themselves if you don't have to do any of the sacrificing yourself. It's easier to send other people's children to fight.

in a war if you know your own children are cozy in a penthouse suite somewhere. It's easier to ignore the everyday realities of war from inside the hallowed hall of the White House, we've got McDonald's being door dashed to the Oval Office. But it's nearly impossible. It's nearly impossible if you've been actually outside the wire yourself. So I've come to the floor today to keep true a promise I first made over two decades ago. I ran for Congress, not because I wanted to be in Congress, not because I wanted to be a congressman or a senator. I ran for Congress to honor the men and women who carried me out of that bloody war zone. I made a promise that when the drums of war started beating again,

I would be in a position to make sure that our elected officials fully consider the true cause of war, not just in terms of money, but in human lives. and in the sacrifices of the men and women who wear the colors of this great nation, that was the vow I made to the troops I deployed with and to all of those who've served since I've hung up my uniform. I'm here today under this great Capitol Dome to keep that most sacred oath. Because right now, thousands of our troops are ready to do their jobs, even if it means laying down their lives. And it's tragic, it's disgusting to me, that even as they prepare to do their jobs, our president, and some members of this chamber, seem so eager to neglect their own.

So as those drums of war echo louder than they have ever in years, I am here to remind Donald Trump that he does not have the authority to unilaterally force us into war. He may never have read the Constitution, but I have. So let me direct his attention to Article 1, which makes clear that only Congress, only Congress has a power to declare war. We are the ones tasked with deciding when and how Americans are sent into combat. We are the ones charged with that most solemn duty. Yet Trump is acting as if Article 1 simply doesn't exist, as if obeying the Constitution is optional. As if a founding document is just a yellowing, crumbling piece of paper.

that he can crumble up and toss into the garbage can at will. This should not, must not be a partisan issue. No matter if you're struggling to pay rent, or if your name is plastered and fake gold on a building on Fifth Avenue, no one can ignore the Constitution, especially if you've sworn an oath to defend it. No matter of your Amarago worker pulling down double shifts of the President of the United States,

no one is above the law. Look, I believe fully that there are certain solemn urgent times when our military must be called upon to defend us. There are certain moments when the threat in question is significant and imminent. Instances when military force is the most effective tool at hand and that using it is necessary to protect America and her interests. The thing is, from what little information the Trump administration has shared publicly that he hasn't immediately contradicted,

and sometimes the same sentence, this was not one of those times. But if the administration thinks that I'm wrong and there was imminent, reasonable, actual threat to America, then guess what? The floor is theirs. Come to the Senate with just 20 minutes from the White House. It's not hard to find.

It's even faster in your motorcade, Mr. President. It's not hard to find us. We're the building with a big door. on top. We're only a 20-minute walk. Trump knows where the Capitol building is. It's a spot he told the insurrectionists to march towards on January 6th. So if his team actually believes that war is unjustified,

then they need to come to Congress and do their jobs. Explain their case, giving the American people a say through their elected representatives, the members who sit at every one of these desks in this chamber. They need to respect the American people enough. to finally tell them why they're being forced to bear the cost of this conflict, both in dollars and cents and daughters and sons. They need to respect our service members enough to prove why war with Iran

is worth more children growing up without their mom or dad. They need to make it clear that they've thought this through and well enough that they can actually articulate what an end state with this war of choice in Iran would even look like. Then when their case has been made, when the debate here in Congress is completed, then the members of this chamber must vote. It's our duty? Yes, it is our burden. It's the least we can do for those who are willing to sacrifice everything to safeguard this democracy.

But if the Trump administration refuses to do that, if they refuse to adhere to the Constitution, well, then it begs their question, what are you hiding? What are you hiding, Mr. President? We already know you're incompetent. What else are you hiding? Look, we've now been at this war of choice, of Trump's choice, for a month and a half. Thousands are dead, grieving, wounded, suffering. Only someone as inept and unfit, someone as callous and cruel, as Trump would see this as winning.

Only a draft-dodging coward would think that this is the right, way to engage in a war. Only a man so unqualified to be commander-in-chief would be proud to keep on risking our hero's lives without even a concept of a plan for how to get them back home without risking more graves at Arlington. We can't let this chaos continue unchecked. As our troops continue to sacrifice whatever is asked of them, we senators need to do the absolute minimum required of us. That's why this week, I'm calling up my war powers resolution, demanding that the Trump administration finally end this illegal war and to call for some actual public oversight and accountability on behalf of the American people. It will come to the floor for a vote shortly.

So to my Republican colleagues, you have a choice, a simple one, really. You can vote with me to end this conflict and show that you actually care about putting America first, like you claim, or you can vote to put Trump's eagle first, proving that when push comes to shove, you care more about protecting Trump's thin skin than the Constitution that you swore to defend. At this point, it's pretty clear. Donald J. Trump will always be more interested

in looking out for his own self-interest rather than truly serving American interests. So my question is, if any of my Republican colleagues are actually brave enough to stand up and tell Donald J. Trump the five-time draft-dodging coward enough. Thank you. Guys, blue-chew gold is the only one that's combining.

Ugh, oh, those ads. Damn, that was powerful. And, you know, she was entirely correct. And as far as context is concerned, well, that was during, excuse me, That was during debate over a war powers resolution in the Senate two days ago. And after that impassioned plea, the maggot majority in the Senate said, I don't know what kind of dead soul you have to have to hear something like that and go, well, no, I can't, I can't, I can't go against Daddy.

disgusting. But while in the interim, more folks have entered the conversation, there's Christopher and Chi Wu and Kevin's still with us, and Rogers there, as well as Emilio, squeaky.

Hey, gang. Thoughts on what you just heard? Is anybody even, I mean, wow, are you there? Yeah, I'm here. Oh, hey, Roger. I'm fighting with another computer trying to get into the login.gov bullshit. Anyhow, I had a nice drive today up to Portland and back.

About 250 miles of driving so far today. And now I'm home. I hope there's not too much noise where I am. If there is, I'll try to move to a different room. No, you sound great. Okay. Yeah, I had to go up and check up my ambulance. amplifier that I dropped off on Super Bowl Saturday.

The guy sort of got it working but couldn't really fix it. So he adjusted a different shop. And when I called the phone number, phone number is no longer valid. So I still don't have my amplifier back up and running. So I'll continue to search around for somebody that works on tube type equipment. Back in the day, I would have taken it down to the ET shop and fixed it myself.

but I don't have all the testing tools and all the rest of that anymore. And it's been something like 50 years since I, well, 55 years since I actually did any work on things of that sort. But in response to Jeremy's little problem, I had something to my wrist about a month ago. And it's been really hurting a whole lot. So Thursday, I decided to cruise over to the VA. and make an appointment, you know, for down the road. Well, about 10 minutes after I walked in and talked to the little lady at the check encounter, a nurse came and called me to come talk, so I came to talk.

And he got on the phone to my doctor, who's actually physically over in Boise, Idaho. But he comes over here to Eugene every six months or so to see people. and she sent him an email and said, you know, I think this guy really needs to get an x-ray. And about five minutes later, he checked his email, put in the order for my x-ray.

They walked me down to the x-ray imaging area, went in, got some pictures taken. I walked in about two o'clock, and by about 3.10, I was walking out the door. They'd taken x-rays and all that. I come home here and figure and I'd hear about it.

through an email or some other bullshit. And along about 4.30, the doctor calls me up. He says, well, I got good news and bad news. And I said, well, what's the good news first? And he said, well, nothing's broken. Okay, what's the bad news? You got some bad arthritis. You want me to catch you up for an appointment with an orthopedic,

orthopedic person to, if anything can be done about it? And I said, yeah, that sounds fine to me. and the braces helped it out a whole lot and folks that complain about the health care in America. I'm glad I no longer have to deal with the normal health care because VA's been doing really good things for me. And I'm kind of happy with it. All these people that are bitched about the VA and socialized medicine and all the rest of it. As I moved up here to Oregon, I've had nothing but good luck. and I'm sorry, Jeremy, that you have to go through all that fit.

I can remember when I, my fingers in a lawnmower, and I went to the ER, and they treated me, but a couple of weeks later, I get this letters saying, oh, the hospital you went to, that's part of our network, but the emergency room at that hospital is not, you own the whole shitload of money, because our insurance didn't accept the emergency department bill from the hospital that if they put me into the hospital, it would have been covered.

So I've experienced both sides, and I'm a whole hell of a lot happier with the VA than I am with the normal kit. So I'm a loud proponent for at least Medicare, Medicaid, Medicare for all instead of this screwed up for-profit medical care that we have to suffer with here in this country. I'm written for Kevin. His medication is more important than mine at this point. I truly believe that. So I really hope his gets settled. That's a BS.

I totally agree. I absolutely totally agree. If I need some meds, I just, they make the prescription, and if I need it right away, I just go to the pharmacy and they fill it and I walk out the door

and the most I pay is $15 for three months to fly. It doesn't matter what it is. Now, if it's my blood pressure medication, they give that to me for free because they consider that my blood pressure is part of my service disability because of the Agent Orange and anything that has to do with urinary, that's Agent Orange. I don't know what they're going to do on this sleep test they ordered for me for next month. But I'm going to go get this sleep apnea thing, and sleep apnea seems to be another malady that Agent Orange either causes or exacerbate. And I'm just so happy I don't have to deal with that horse shit anymore.

My fight wasn't with medication. It was with the device I wear to control my pump. And it learns over time. So there's an algorithm, just like computers. learns what you do. And over time, it compensates for the way you live your, choose what you eat, what you do, and it almost becomes thoughtless. And without that, it all goes to shit.

That was my problem. It's not medication. It's a device that help deliver the medication, which is crucial. That's what I was mad at. But it's all good here. I just hope that Kevin gets his stuff sorted out, because like I said, his is more crucial than my stupid CDM is at this moment. Well, my problem is that when you got a medical condition, being during, worked around by a third party, not that your doctor won't prescribe what you want, and not that it isn't available, but when they start telling you that, well, we really don't want to cover this because it would cut into our bottom line, that's what needs to be gotten rid of.

I mean, the whole idea that we have a for-profit medical system, when I was a little kid, virtually every hospital was run by the Catholic sisters, and they were running at pretty much non-profit. And the profit they were making was for the retired nuns to live down in Orange County, California, at their retirement home. and then all of a sudden, when girls didn't want to become nuns anymore, and they were running short on nuns, and they started moving over to the hired RNs and nurses, nurses aides, whatever they were, and then all of a sudden a bunch of doctors got together, and I'm thinking of what happened in Humboldt County,

and they built a new hospital, privately owned, for-profit, and then the sisters shut their hospital down, and all of a sudden health care costs went through the fucking route. My childhood doctor, you could not make an appointment with his office. You came into the waiting room and you waited until you got called. If it was a real emergency, you went in quicker. If it was just a routine, you might say, well, come in Thursdays because Thursdays are pretty slow and we'll get you in. And mom would take me out.

in and we'd sit there in the waiting room and pretty soon we'd get called and they'd do whatever and this is the same doctor when I blew myself up with gasoline on a Sunday morning and I walked in the house mom got on the phone called the doctor at home that I got burned real bad and she didn't know the story and the doctor said I'm to the office we went to the office and he'd banished me up in the office and then said, yeah, I really think he needs to go to the hospital. Then I went over to the hospital. But, I mean, I know mom and dad paid him, but I know that when I had a friend that slipped on a snowy trail and got a vac, metavacked out of the Trinity Alton's wilderness area

and got taken to the Weaverville Hospital. And then they kicked him out. And I called up the doctor and said, you know, I really don't want to pay for this, but and I explained it and bring him down to the office took the guy in herb took care of him and sent him back to the hospital as he'd broken his pelvis the doctor had an x-ray machine in his in his office and if you couldn't pay you still got treated and you know you kind of worked it out with the nurse or the bookkeeper or something like that but it wasn't the cutthroat get rich quick scheme it is now.

Now Herb had a, Herb board was his name, had one of the nicest houses in town. And I'm sure he had all kinds of things, but I know he treated people without getting paid for it because it was his duty. Today you've got to fill out a whole that load of papers in the Oregon Health Plan

or Medi-Cal or one of those other things. and they get to determine whether or not you're eligible and if you're not eligible, you can die on the fucking sidewalk as far as they're concerned. And I'm just real disappointed in that kind of medical system that we've gotten over to. And when I lived in England and I had some time in Canada and the idea that you can just walk into any medical office

and they'll treat you is a whole lot better plan. and what we've got going in this country. And yet we can spend a billion fucking dollars a day spending people to bleed over in the Middle East. Some of whom in turn will require medical treatment of their own. For life. Yeah. I mean, anytime they send people off to war,

when peace is declared, the costs do not stop. It's a lifetime of care that's needed. Whether you lost your leg in Fallujah or got poisoned by Agent Orange or whatever. It's anyhow, end of my rant. I'll continue to fight with logging.gov. You know, that sounds like good times, but you're absolutely right, Roger. I mean, we have a broken health care. system, but it didn't just

break. It was broken. You know, again, it's like all those other choices that we make or are made for us. It's like homelessness. People aren't homeless.

I mean, we don't have a homeless crisis because that just happens. We have it because it's a social choice. Just like they broke They broke our citizens' bankruptcy system to favor the bank. One point you could clear banks every seven years. Yeah, it wasn't great.

You would hurt your credit for a few years. You could walk away the clean slate. That doesn't happen. They fucked us in the Bush administration on that one. Yeah, with aid from some Democrats, too, Jeremy. I remember, well, Bob Byrd was part and parcel of that. I remember writing letters to his office about it. The very idea that...

You know, when that bill passed, suddenly you couldn't bankrupt credit card debt anymore, even though they weren't a secured creditor. It was infuriating. It was a nasty piece of work they put against the American citizenship. And by the way, banks can actually claw back stuff you take in if you declare bankruptcy to pay them back when they couldn't do that in the past. It's a dirty system. Yeah, it is. It absolutely is. And just a reminder, because we're into the third hour of the press.

program. We're approaching probably the worst month in the history, the 22 plus year history of the horn. We are $2,760 in the hole. That'll be $3,060 on Monday, and that's an entire half a month. And we're only just a day past the half a month mark. This is pretty brutal. Ralphs has a challenge on the table, $25. It would get us down to $2710 if somebody's got $25 to kick in. And, you know, I'm not kidding, it's scary. Power bills do, water bills do, just paid the Internet. Thank God I got a rate reduction when I got away from Chantelle and went with Frontier.

Much better connection without a doubt. But it all adds up. up. So if anybody wants to match the PayPal button to the tune of 25 bucks or Venmo cash app, I care not. Rouse's challenge will be met and she will be very happy to double your 25 bucks. And we'll see if we can get a little late in the game miracle going on this Friday on the front porch. I wanted to mention, and by the way, anybody want to chime in? Like I said, Chihu's here. Christopher's here. Kevin, I hope you're

Roxanne, can you hear me? I absolutely can. Oh, okay. I think for some reason it wasn't working before. Happy, Happy Friday. Happy Friday. Everybody, home with family. Yeah, nothing in particular to talk about

the weather's trying to get nice again here, but I've been working too much this whole week. But tomorrow, me and Arlo get a hike in tomorrow morning. Aw. That's the plan. Yeah. Right boy.

Norlo is a very, very good boy. He is. He is. He most certainly is. So, yeah. Is he growing into those ginormous paws? Pretty much. I think he's done.

I think he's finally done. He had a spurt maybe, I don't know, four or five months ago. He grew a little bit more, but I think he's pretty much done. He just got past two and a half years old. Yeah, that's about, yeah, that's about right. He doesn't need to be any bigger. He's big enough to drag you around the park as it is, right? Man, he's so strong.

This guy's an ox. It's crazy. But, yeah, I mean, you know, more craziness. I guess let's see whose head is next to get lopped off. Is it Whiskey Pete? Is it, you know, the raccoon, dingus man? it's hard to say has he fired him a guy yet

he's yet to fire a guy correct I think yeah HECF is fired a lot of guys and some black women oh no no I'm Donnie himself yeah nitwit Niro well it's interesting I don't know maybe maybe

well there's there was some indication and we talked about it in yesterday's program that nitwit Nero may be getting a little bit tired of Bobby because he nominated a woman who run the CDC who's an actual scientist and is an advocate of vaccines. Bobby had a really, really bad day yesterday. I played the clip of Representative Terry Sewell giving him hell for suggesting that African-American children on psych meds should be reparented, whatever that means.

And he tried to gaslight her. I never said that. When she actually had the citation to the show that he said it on in 2024. But, well, you remember the struggle during the shutdown to get Adelaide Grahalva sworn into Congress? Yeah. You skipped the lead on that, mentioning the person that was hired. Have you seen a picture? Yes, oh yes, she's an African-American woman.

Yeah. Uh-huh. Yeah. So how about that? Well, Brother Deacon Asa said yesterday that he's got a, he's got a fin that says the minute Nitwit Niro sees a picture of her. He said, well, the nomination will be withdrawn. Yeah.

I'm afraid you're correct. But the thing is, Adelaide Grahava has hit the, his... She could be working for the urban, urban, urban secretary. Yeah. But no, Adelaela Grijalva hit the ground running because the minute that she got to ask a question, or got to question, Secretary Raccoon penis, 22 plus years of broadcasting. And I never thought I would have two days in a row where we talked about raccoon penis. Rocky.

Here we are. Yeah. Yeah, because you sent in that lyric yesterday. Well, Adelaida Grijalva couldn't just leave it alone. This is a moment. It'll take a couple of minutes, but oh my goodness, it's worth it. General lady from Arizona, Ms. Grijalva. Thank you for your time today.

I have to say, as I listen here, with all the health initiatives that you're expousing, I have grave concerns about the HHS bill budget and the cuts that are being proposed. I spent 20 years on a school board and saw firsthand how support systems children have or don't have outside of the classroom shape their outcomes. At the most basic level, children can't go to school if they're sick, they can't learn on an empty stomach, and their families can't get ahead if they can't access health care. I'd like to first talk to you about your proposed cuts to medical research. I was reading an article this morning that talked about your affinity to perform your own medical research. You apparently once cut

the penis off a road killed raccoon to study them later. You speak fondly of medical research, Yet your budget cuts show that the National Institutes of Health are going to get a cut of more than 12%. This level of cuts would halt promising research, forced layoffs of scientists and research staff, and undermine America's global leadership and medical intervention and innovation. What specific diseases do you believe deserve less medical research? A DEI. Okay.

We've got a billion dollars. Do you have a specific program, a specific disease? That deserves less funding? I would say we're putting a billion dollars into DEI, and DEI research has never cured any disease. It's never produced any new drug. Okay, so between February of 2025 and April of 2025, HHS canceled or froze more than $180 million in National Cancer Institute grants.

Were you the one to approve these cuts to cancer grants, or did that come directly from the White House? We're giving the highest, one of the highest budget increases to NCI. Can you just answer my specific question? Did you, were you the one who approved those cuts or did that come from the White House? As I said, we are raising the budget for NCI for the National Constitute in this budget. It's one of the only agencies. Notice the dismissal.

Yeah, okay. So it's another classic case carried over from yesterday where he did. gas lights the very person he's at, oh, we're not cutting. We're not cutting anything. We're adding money to it. No, the cuts the fucking cut, right? See, throughout my entire agency that's receiving a raise. So, Secretary Kennedy, you have the responsibility to tell the truth to this committee,

and here are some examples of cuts. In April of 2025, HHS canceled an NIH grant regarding strategies to reduce cancer and chronic disease in the Arkansas Delta. In 2020, in 2025, a grant selective targeting of pancreatic cancer was cut. In March of 2025, a grant, the automated digital imaging for cervical cancer screening. The list continues to go on. You've also noted that SNAP can be used to purchase whole foods. And we look at some of the recent data, just in Arizona, the district that I represent,

424 fewer people, including 180 children, have lost food assistance. since the enactment of HR1. My constituents are writing to me telling me that they're hungry and cannot afford food. As the Secretary of Health and Human Services, will you make a statement here today that you oppose hunger in this country? Well, I oppose hunger in this country, and we're the first administration to be doing something about getting actually good food. Thank you.

I'm grateful that you're standing against the Republican hunger cuts. And if HHS spends $21 billion. I'm surprised they didn't suggest they could go out and eat raccoon penis. Physician training, yet only 1% goes to community-based programs like teaching health centers that actually reduce primary care shortages. Why are we underinvesting in the models that work? For rural health? For community health centers.

I just put $143 million into community health centers. or physician retention, we also put $50 billion into the rural transformation process, a program which has a lot of money. Or rural healthcare, frontline physicians to retain them, to keep them, to do residencies there, it's unprecedented. So just so you know, only 1% of the funding

that you've talked about actually goes to teaching health centers and community health centers, and health centers lower costs and You asked about the problem. We were trying to solve the problem of rural residencies and rural access to rural personnel, and we're doing more than any administration in history to do that. So unfortunately, there are five rural health centers in Arizona that are at risk of closure because of cuts from this administration.

So what are you doing to ensure that every Medicaid patient can access a community health center? There's 39 million Americans in California. community health centers. And my personal belief is that it's the most effective health centers in our country. What they're doing is better than any, and we're making big investments to make sure that they continue. We've raised the funding in this budget for community health centers, and then I'm finding other pockets of money funnel, as I did last week, $135 million. I would really like to see the data that shows that because the rural health centers. communities and health centers in my district are suffering greatly under this administration.

Well, I announced the program. I yield back. I announced the program in Arizona last week, out of community health center. Sure you did. God, what a joke. What a jackass. And it was like that way for him. He was actually in two hearings yesterday.

One was the Education and Workforce Committee. and the other was in the Appropriations Committee. And he didn't fare well in either one. And, of course, he's almost single-handedly responsible for a spike in measles cases in this country. And Representative Haley Stevens tore him a new one for it. The penalty from Michigan, Ms. Stevens. Well, thank you, Mr. Chair, for holding this hearing, and Mr. Secretary. It is, in fact, true.

I come from the great state of Michigan, and as you enter your second year as our nation's health and human services secretary, I just had a few things I wanted to tick through with you here today. So in early 2025, after your confirmation, measles cases spiked in the United States to the highest level since 1991. Last year, we had over 2,200 cases in America. three people died, two were children. Do I have that correct? Because according to the CDC and the American Academy of Pediatrics, I do. During this same time, that epidemic started before I came in the office. During the same time, you question the effectiveness of the measles vaccine. And then in September, your handpicked vaccine panel voted against recommending the combined measles vaccine for children under four. This is true?

It was dangerous. We know now that over 90% of measles cases in 2025 were among people who were unvaccinated or whose vaccination status was unknown. That's correct. I think we should have given a dangerous vaccine that all the science. In just the first three and a half months of 2006, the year we're in right now, we've already seen an additional 1,700 measles cases. I assume you're aware of us, according to the CDC. There's a global epidemic. You have also pushed vitamin A as a treatment for measles.

That is correct? Yeah, every major health organization. The world recommends it. Vitamin A over exposure among children increased by nearly 40 percent. And in this time frame, children in the hospitals with both measles and unsafe levels of vitamin A has occurred, correct? I'm not recommending unsafe levels. I'm recommending what every major international health organization. The Uyrican Poison Centers agrees.

You characterized your response to one outbreak in Texas as a model for the rest of the world, even as the number of measles cases climbed. As Secretary of Health and Human Services, have you ever taken steps to undermine medical guidelines rooted in science? Because we can look at your record, sir. I serve on the science committee. At the beginning of this year, the CDC tried to slash the child's child. vaccine schedule from 17 recommended vaccines to 11 before it was blocked by a judge. Hepatitis A, B, RSV, multiple vaccines were demoted.

Do you dispute this charge, sir? You think that we should recommend interventions that have not been saved countless lives. A 2024 study estimates that childhood vaccines have saved 1.1 million children's lives and prevented more than 500 million illnesses in the last three decades. Doctors, researchers, and medical experts have spent years working to not only understand illnesses, but also prevent them. Your actions restricting these vaccines have a grave impact on our country. And while you have waged war against established medical science, you've also attacked

life-saving research on cancer and also. You have implemented measures that have raised costs, kicked families off their insurance and made it harder to get coverage. You're devastated rural hospitals. Look, to top it off, Mr. Secretary, I got a copy of H.R. 944. Do you know what it is? It's your impeachment articles, sir. You have abused your office. You have gutted America's public health, and you have sacrificed our leadership in medical research and innovation. Americans today are less safe under your watch. Children are dying of diseases that we thought we had eradicated.

You can smirk, sir, but I answer to the people of Michigan, and they have told me you should be ashamed, you should resign, and if you refuse, Congress should remove you from office. I yield back. The gentlelady's time has expired. Is that a question? Is that a question? I mean, it was hell among the yearlings yesterday.

You earned every bit of it. And more. I put some in the chat, Roxanne. I said, I always make sure to sprinkle in some powdered vitamin A with my Coke before I snorted off the toilet seat. We've been, I've been remiss in the awarding of Ramalama Ding Dongs this evening. So, yeah. You know, your cocaine will work so much better with a little vitamin A, and you won't get the measles. It has to be off the toilet seat.

You're just both desperate. He's perfecting the recipe for chilled dick. That's all it is when he harvested that dick off that dead raccoon. It was for science. Do you folks know that the raccoon is apparently the only mammal? that actually has a bone in its dungus, yes. It actually has a boner for real, huh? Yeah, and I had a friend who lived very off the grid down a trail

in the little town of Fieldbrook, well, near the found of Fieldbrook, and he had a collection of raccoon penis bones. And when I trapped the raccoon in my chicken coop and shot it, I knew he liked, well, he also worked at cleaning a movie theater. And so he drove into town at night, you know, in the evening after the theater had closed, and he paid special attention to any dead animals on the road. And when he came back to where he parked his truck, if there was an animal that hadn't been on the road when he drove into town,

he would pick it up and bring it to his house. and basically he lived off roadkill for his protein but I know he liked raccoons as well so when I shot that raccoon I threw it in back the truck and drove over and said here John here's a here's a raccoon for you I just shot it this morning and he says wow oh it's a male I can add to my pecker bone collection oh Jesus yeah I've had some strange friends that you might be able to use those for if you have at all different sizes, you can make a raccoon penis xylophone. Well, the bones are really pretty small.

Oh, well. It would be a very tiny, it would be a very tiny xylophone, yeah. Yeah. You know, we talk about that, and, you know, the first thing comes to mind for me is that poor girl raccoon. Oh. It can't be fun. Well, I never tried to check that out. As far as I'm concerned, because of the chickens I have.

The only good raccoon in the world is a dead one. Moonshiners also use the part when distilling from time to time. So I've heard. Really? Chee Wu. Well, you can't just say that and walk away. No, we got to know. How?

Why? Well, when your match is converted and you're distilling and it starts to run out the bone there, kind of acts like a guide into your jar vessel of collection, you throw out the heads. collect the rest, but it all drifts nicely when you use a owner from what I've heard. The things I learn in this program. Well, I mean, you come from moonshine country, I think, if I recall what you said in the past, G-W.

That's true. And back to your original, well, I got the show beginning at 5 o'clock central-ish. Just for the record, when I served, I was a young. cat. I served in Desert Shield, Desert Storm. I was already a service member before those events, but I would have did what the government asked me to do. And if it was wrong, back then, I probably would have did wrong. I would have served and been proud of it. I wouldn't have cared. And the people that I served with, I can pretty much say, we didn't care. we if we would have done our jobs we would have done it as the best as we could do it and um

United States Marine Corps I would say I would say we would have done it the best in the world and I'm proud to say that but I can tell you you know that was three lifetimes ago four lifetimes ago for me I don't you know the wisdom that I had then is not the same as what I have now but I still kind of identify with that mentality and the team in this breed of core. Oh, yeah, sure. I mean, look, it's a much bigger thing, you know, for a sergeant or lower to say, I'm not following an illegal order. The people who really need to be held accountable are the high brass.

I mean, there are stories that come out of Iraq, you know. White phosphorus? Not, you know, not just that, but, you know, just ordinary calling in airstrikes on villages that didn't have any combatants in them. It happened. James Mattis caught hell on a few occasions for it. Wedding parties in Afghanistan. Yeah, he swore up and down. That was not a real wedding party.

And then the video came out of, you know, the victims in their wedding garb. well, or at least pieces of them being picked up and taken out. Yeah, it's a bridge too far to expect 18, 19, 20-year-olds to question the judgment of the supposed geniuses, you know, way up the ladder and thousands of miles away in the Pentagon. But I have no problem saying that whiskey Pete should face war crimes charges. and it was interesting that the congresswoman from Michigan is prepared

or apparently has already filed a bill of impeachment against whalehead, dead bear, vash bear, brainworm, lamprey. And it's also noteworthy that as of last night's results in New Jersey, Mulla Moses, Mike Johnson's majority is down to one. Wow. He may not make it, he may not make it to the midterms.

How many of them are over 80 sitting Congress critters on the Republican side? There's got to be at least a few. Mm-hmm. Right? Right, and of course they continue to also like rats leave the sinking ship. The only hope.

Oh, without a doubt. But I mean, you know, Kennedy just got savaged yesterday. And, you know, it's easy to say, well, you know, the Democrats have no power, blah, blah, blah, blah. But the fact of the matter is, if he becomes enough of a liability, think about how Jojo Blondie got devastated in front of the Congress. he'll hand people their walking papers this was Jesus Representative Linda Sanchez

you know the other Congresswoman brought up the raccoon penis well Linda Sanchez brought up his bromance with Kid Rock whose name is neither kid nor Rock

Yeah, but Republicans have no problem calling him by his chosen name. This is good stuff. I mean, it's also terrifying stuff because, you know, Kennedy's out there doing all this. Senators during your confirmation hearings, you claimed, and I'm quoting here, I support vaccines, I support the childhood vaccine schedule. I was skeptical about those comments because prior to your nomination, you espouse numerous disproven theories that childhood vaccines, including the measles vaccines, were linked to autism, death, and other adverse effects.

Not surprisingly, we were right to be skeptical of your promise to support the childhood vaccine schedule because at your direction, the CDC removed its universal vaccine recommendations for children, covering seven immunizations, including things like flu, COVID, hepatitis A, hepatitis V, and rotavirus. On Fox News last year, you stated, and I'm quoting you again here, there are adverse effects from the vaccine. It does cause deaths every year. It causes all the illnesses that measles itself causes. A deadly measles outbreak in Texas killed an unvaccinated six-year-old,

the first such death in a decade. So a simple yes or no question. It's not that we don't want to let you answer. It's that we all have limited time, and you have plenty of time to answer questions, and you have plenty of time to give testimony at the beginning. So a simple yes or no answer will do here. Do you agree with the majority of doctors that the measles vaccine could have saved that child's life in Texas?

It's possible, certainly. Okay, thank you. I want to look at some very important data. In 2024, under the Biden administration, which apparently seems to be responsible for every ill in the world, in 2024, under the Biden administration, there were 258 cases of measles. And in 2025, under your leadership, at 8,000,000. HHS, it ballooned to over 2,000. That's a 675% increase. And we are now on track to surpass that this year with over 1,600 confirmed cases in just three and a half months. If we project those numbers out for all of 2026, we can expect a whopping 6,400 cases of measles. That's a 2,380% increase in a preventable disease. CDC data also shows that about 80% of children who died from flu this season were not vaccinated.

The anti-vaccine rhetoric you ran on and the anti-vaccine actions you have taken over the last year clearly correlates with the dramatic increases, again, in preventable diseases. As a mother, this horrifies me. Stopping the spread of communicable diseases is one of HHS's primary responsibilities and a strong public health messaging campaign on the importance of vaccines could have stopped this surge of measles cases as it had in past outbreaks. But I was appalled to learn that the CDC suspended public health messaging on vaccines last February. It ended a successful flu vaccine campaign as well.

My question is, did President Trump approve your decision to end CDC's pro-vaccine public messaging campaign? You've got a lot of misinformation there. First of all, I'm asking you a question. Let me appreciate a response to the misstatements that you've made. Now, you have other opportunities. I have limited time. Please answer my question.

You're the only opportunity I have to. President Trump approve your decision to end CDC's pro-vexine public messaging. Let me, allow me to respond to a lot of the misinformation. No, answer my question, please, sir. I have limited time. There's a global measles epidemic.

We've done better in preventing it in any country in the world. There is no country that has seen a bigger percentage increase. That's not true. Mexico has three times our measles and they have one-eighth of our population. Did you, did President Trump approve your decision to end the CDC's pro-vaccine public Mexico? Canada has doubled the missiles and they have one-third, one-eighth of our population. Did he approve that?

We've done better at preventing measles than any country in the world. Did President Trump approve? your decision to end the CDC's pro-vaccine public messaging campaign. We've done better at preventing... That's not answering my question. And ending the epidemic than any country in the world. And I think you don't want to answer the question because I think you know that you are making terrible decisions that impact very, very real lives, especially the lives of children.

Now, one thing that I find incredible is that you suspended this pro-vaccine messaging campaign, but somehow you're spending taxpayer dollars to drink milk shirtless in a hot tub with Kid Rock. And somehow you think that's a better public health message than informing the public about the importance of vaccines. General lady's time is expired. Really? I yield back. Apparently it's rather difficult to gaslight Representative Sanchez. Jesus. Thoughts?

Yeah, I wish he hadn't mentioned shirtless R.F.K. Jr. Well, yeah, dinner's ruined in the Pacific Daylight Time Zone now. Yeah, I get it. I wish you would have mentioned that it's raw milk and asked him if he got a monstrous case of the turtle squirts after. Hell, maybe that's why Stevie 3 shirt's pants were soaked in that clip from earlier. God. Well, you know, hey, if he had a spot on his crotch, I mean, Matt Schlapp was there, I have to assume. No, no, that's CPAC.

This was semaphore. But as somebody noted on the Internet, that stain starts in the back. That's a doo-do. God, this timeline, please. Somebody. In answer to Chris's question earlier, there are 15 House members, age 80 and above, 13 of them are Democrats and Carter from Texas and Fox from North Carolina are the only two House members over 80. And yet further down, if you deal with the entire Congress, both House and Senate, there are 24 members that are 80 or 80. or older and more than half of them are running for re-elections.

I think the thrust of Christopher's question was, who do we root for the little piece of plaque for? Well, the oldest... Mr. Reaper, you-hoo, Mr. Reaper. Ever serving as a member of Congress was... Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Where is it here? And there was one that retired at 100.

And of course, we know Diane Feinstein was 90. But a little piece of plaque or a Arctic aneurism or something of that sort would be very beneficial. You know, Kennedy is like a self-inflicted wound for the Republican Party overall going into this election. Yeah, and that's why I've been playing these clips, Kevin. the way they hammered him, if it gets back to knit with Nero, he may be the first white dude to get fired. Because like she said, 6,000 cases by freaking the end of the year. I'd quibble with the color white somewhat.

It's more like leatherish. Well, yeah. A few cases here and there throughout the country, something that's pretty much contained. with measles. I mean, I remember seeing measles when I was a kid in the 60s a little bit, but, you know, they pretty much had the vaccine even back then. They were starting to get a hold of it, you know?

All I got to say is after that clip in his defense, William, I get some questions for A-salator. Boy, have I got some questions. Okay. What about raccoons? I mean, and I know there's a lot of other. No, Bobby said that Canada has a bigger outbreak and media because they have... Oh, right.

Yeah, that's going to take a jab at, that's all. All A's fault? Just Canadians in general. They're all the same. Yeah, true. Hey, dear. Yeah, you meet one, you've met one Canadian, A, you've met them all A. Right? That's not even the right accent. No, the A is right.

The accent is, God. Stop it, Robin. Stop it. how how do you distinguish between Canadian accent and Minnesota accent is there a subtle difference Minnesota is English Canadian is Canadian

Huh Minnesotans have hot dish Okay I've never had hot dish I've been to Minneapolis It was an awesome awesome city But It was in the summer

Are you allowed to serve a hot dish in the summertime? Oh, I think it's good any time any time of year. House parties, funerals, you know, bring potlucks. What's in it? What's in it where I'm saying? I know the primary ingredient is apparently tater tots and it's baked in the oven. You know, Christopher, I saw a Bordain link where he went to show. Chicago and it's old enough that he

that he went to hot dugs oh yeah yeah and shut down sometime after that I don't know if they got overwhelmed by the publicity or what but he went to this one Chicago style pizza place run by a guy whose last name was cats

and I got to confess that pie looked really really good it wasn't sloppy or anything It was just very there. It was very dense. It's a K-A-T-Z? Yeah, K-A-T-Z. Why doesn't it ring a bell?

We'll let the Internet sort this out for us. Oh, deep dish. P-quads. I've had P-Quads. It is very good. Chicago's, well, no, I take that back. I take that back. That's what immediately came up in the search.

Piquots is very good. That is where Anthony Bourdain went into that show. And some people care for it in Chicago. Some people don't. But it's, it's, I don't, I'm not a big pizza fan, but it's all right. Burt's place. Burt Cats. Yeah, Burt Cats.

1937. Yeah, that's what it was, Burt's. And that's, that's, no. burb too i believe is it let's see well he that was the episode where he confessed that he actually liked that pie and he went on to do the unthinkable and say that uh there is one thing that chicago um excels in and far exceeds new york city the hot dog Accurlade. Oh, yeah, for sure.

Oh, he won't be a lot. He, well, if he was still with us, he wouldn't be allowed in the five boroughs. A comment like that. Yeah, you're right. Morton Grove. Yeah, Morton Grove is, northwest, is kind of a north-northwest

over Al-Basco can all that. Yeah. And then, it's good there. Yeah, the best, the best Italian beef sandwich on the planet comes from Chicago. I mean, the hot beef is just classically Chicago.

A few weeks ago, you know, I found that Italian hot beef and gravy that was frozen at Aldi. And, oh, what a gloriously sloppy sandwich it was, but so good. You need to take a shower after that, yeah, if you do it right. Oh, yeah, I mean, you put the Aju and your bathwater, but the Italian beef came out. Wait a minute, what? Lord have mercy. Lightly dipped. yes sir

and then you put the you put the you put the Oju in your bath water what what else you what else you're going to do with the last show yeah exactly

I mean you wash your shirt while you take your mask because that's what's going to end up and there I was and there and there and there I was he isn't the leftovers on a big

a big bowl mashed potatoes. Silly me. Can't go wrong. What were you saying, Emilio? No, I'm just, I'm just saying that Chihu has an understated deadpan humor that can get you. Ah, you could miss that one if you weren't paying attention. No, that's Jeremy. Jeremy's got, Jeremy's the king of their shit. That's true.

Oh, big thank you. Come here, we're a goose egg. Ralps's challenge has been met. So that, let's see, we're down to 2625. So that means we're not going to cross $3,000 on Monday. So that's fan-freakantastic. Thank you to our kind anonymous internet friend. Thank you so much.

Hey, Randolph-Man, before we go and cruise out of here, I want to get everybody's thoughts on our fellow Christian-American. And how this was the bridge too far, the AI generated image of Orange Man as Jebus. And how all these people who have hung with this motherfucker for a decade and nothing was too much, nothing ever across the Rubicon, but this, this was the Hildedion. This was the bridge too far. And I just want to get everybody's thoughts on how crazy that seems. Absolutely insane.

I'll take a run at it. Christopher, it's because people are afraid of death. So they want to think that they're going to get up on that great getting up morning. And they're going to look at Jebus and he's going to say, yeah, but did you defend me when Donald Trump made fun? Oh, yes, Lord, let me in. Please let me in. Not enough. Boop.

Off into hell. Pineapple. Don't forget your pineapple. Here's your pineapple. And it doesn't mean what it means on earth. Is that really what it is? Because, I mean, you go back and he should have been immediately, if this was truly a question nation, he should have been immediately disqualified.

Well, you know, grab them by the ride. John McCain was like right out of the game. with the Mexicans Waits and murderers. Don't throw all Christian churches and don't cast them in the same ballot

because you know, pastors like Warnock, who's a senator who still is the senior pastor in the first. They aren't all those same. You're right.

Pastor Barber, believe in North Carolina. There is a certain church population, let me just say it that way, who has never gone along with this bullshit with this.

You know, you worship me. Worship me. No, I don't need forgiveness. What would I need forgiveness for? That type of bullshit. And whether you're religious or not, whether you have a theological background or not, or whatever you do or don't believe in, that type of shit right there didn't go, didn't sit well with a certain population of Christians.

it did with, well, a segment of society who basically betrayed this country. But like you can go back in history and look and say they're who who in the Democratic or the progressive side of the party always, always shows up. Yeah. And votes Democratic because they vote for this country. Well, that's black women who were raised in the church. and it wasn't a church that said you worship a gold statue a gold bathroom, a fucking ballroom.

Don't cast every Christian lot in the same basket. That's incorrect. Yeah, no issue taking, Chie Wu. I mean, the ones I'm talking about, and I'll call it, you know, the white folks who go to places like the First Baptist Church of Dallas that's run by a charlatan.

The prosperity gospel, so-called independent churches. Joe Olsey in Houston, right? He's in Houston. Yeah, Joel. I mean, Joel Osteen's one of them. Paula White, Kane. Paula White, there you go. Yeah, who said that Trump is Jesus.

That should have warranted a lightning bolt, but, or, you know, again, Franklin Graham, son of Billy. Crazy. Yeah, he threw Jesus under the bus, didn't he? How about the crazy ones like I haven't told you about in the past? My mom's ex-boss, Southern Baptist, went to his friend's son's wake, who was killed by a drunk driver? Asked his mother at the coffin, was your son baptized? She said, no, he said, I'm sorry to tell you, he's going to hell.

Yeah, what, you know, yeah, that's a, um, That's a professor's Piccoli moment. You dick! Well, one of the biggest, I don't know, the religious factions, I guess you could say,

it's Catholicism. Dude, you picked a fight with a fucking Pope with a Pope from Chicago, Illinois. Have you lost your motherfucking mind? If the Pope was from any, If the Pope was from Poland, like Pope John Paul, if the Pope was from anywhere, the Pope, this Pope, is from Chicago, Illinois. Chicago, I wish the fuck you would, Illinois.

And do you think that shit is going to fly? I don't like your chances, and I'm not Catholic. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. And, you know, the fact of the matter is the paranoia has reached such a peak, Chiwu, that. now the white house is saying well they i mean trump itself said it uh they only picked they only picked leo because he's american because they wanted him to be mean to me you know he wouldn't he wouldn't he wouldn't have anything good reason yeah he wouldn't he wouldn't the pope wouldn't have a reason to open his mouth if trump wasn't out there shitting on every word that ever came out of jesus's mouth every word but here we are man i i came up in in the 80s in in the 80s you know going to church and wednesday night prayer and

reading you know their youth group and all it man i mean they were playing backward masking records you know that all the devil worship man if if the fucking president had it came out into a fucking park in washington dc holding a bible upside down this country would have lost their fucking mind. But Donald J does it with the general behind him, oh, oopsies, it was just a mistake. I know.

We get it. You were a mistake. We had a president who had to do any of that to you. He drank coffee and saluted Marines wearing a tan suit, and a nation came unfucking wound. Well, that was a black dude, though. You know that's going to happen.

Yeah, he's only three-fifths of a president. Right? On Chicago. Yeah. Oh, there's the Chicago connection again. Okay. Okay. Robin, you have to be sure what you're on in through his nose?

Did you see that? What did you say, Jeremy? You earned a cowbell for your snide in sarcasm. He was only three-fifths of the present. That was funny and mean at the same time. You've earned it tonight. I didn't mean to be mean. You can give yourself a Lama-Rama.

It was funny enough. We have to look forward and not back. They took back three-fifths of that health care, too, didn't he? Damn right. Oh, I know. Don't I know. God damn. God.

Oh, and by the way, I had a note from the brother Deakin a little bit ago. RFK, Representative Sanchez, you missed an important part of the back and forth there. Representative Sanchez was trying to back RFK into what we in the aviation business called the Coffin Corner. She repeatedly asked him the old, did Trump approve of this ad campaign, a la Crispy Nome question.

hashtag watch this space yeah and you'll notice he would not answer and so if you get fired in this administration if the administration fires you will will they

do you think they will preemptively pardon those people that got fired well he's saying that it started out 10 feet from the Oval Office he now says he's going to pardon anybody who came within 200 feet of the Oval Office and if he tries something like that and the House is in the hands of the Democrats and the Senate's in the hands of the Democrats, it's going to be a bad day.

It'll be interesting to see what the executive orders are from the next president who is immune, the same as this president. Oh, don't worry. No one else will be. Yeah, the Supreme Court will get right after that, she will. We didn't mean all the presidents. We just met our orange daddy. If we get a dinner, they'll buy a trash in the purse. Yeah.

And now they're trying to get, of course, Fappy and Sammy bad breath to get the hell off the court. And it's funny that it's bad enough that Raphaelito Eduardo Cruz, the Anointed Bougar-Eaten Future King of America, had to come out and say publicly, I would refuse such a nomination just like I've told him every other time he's asked. Oh, wow. He doesn't want to be on the court? no he likes being center he might not be a center

he wouldn't get to be a troll anymore I mean he's got a podcast Christopher yeah but he does a good job or he does a good job trolling from the pension oh by the way we had a unanimous

we had a unanimous ruling from the court today oh yep um Sammy bad breath didn't take part in it because he was financially

involved in... He actually refused himself? Yeah, he did. It's shocking. I'm shocked, shocked to find out there's gambling going on. That's twice now. But, yeah, they ruled eight to nothing,

so that includes the three good ones, that a lawsuit brought by people who were affected by the toxic behaviors of Chevron and other corporations in Louisiana, that it was a procedural case, and all of them said,

yeah, move it to federal court. I mean, we don't want those people being heard in a court that's, you know, where the damage was done. But the interesting thing was that the case turned on pollution that began, but certainly didn't end during World War II when the government was rampant, up oil production to support the war effort. And the court said,

yeah, we need to send this to the federal court so the federal court can kill it. Man, that oil money. Black gold, Texas tea. Well, hey, I see that Steve's popped into the room before we get out of here. I just want to say hi. Hi, Steve. Hi.

I don't know. But otherwise, it is time for me to get out of here. I've got some, oh, by the way, in case anybody was wondering, yeah, the barbecue's fantastic. That pork shoulder. For those of you, and I don't know if Cynthia's out there or not, but for doing pork, if you can get your hands on a pork shoulder as opposed to a Boston butt and you get that nice covering of skin, it just makes the barbecue so much better. So good. I pulled back that fat pad a little bit and just got a little bit of the barbecue out from underneath it and hit it with a little salt. Ha!

So good. Well, I got told I'm doing a ham in the smoker for Mother's Day. Well, that'll be, I mean, but isn't the ham already smoked? Or are you just going to be heating it, kind of heating it up that way? I think I'm just going to be heating it up. Most of the time when you buy a ham, it's all really. ready, look. Yeah.

I was going to say, is it going to be like a country ham? You know, it's real salty and everything. You're going to have to soak it first? I don't know. My wife's going to hand me a package and say, go cook this and then I'll figure it out. Yes.

I highly recommend broadband farms, broadband hams. Best you can get it. Oh, yeah, and a longer. Your supplier, I'm sure,

is quite different there in Chicago than what we get here on the West Coast. And of course, for my money, you can never go wrong. If you've never tried it, Chie Woo, Benton's, their bacon and their ham are absolutely heavenly. Is that out of Tennessee? So Broadbendon is out of Kentucky.

Is that out of Bentons? Yeah, Benton's is out of East Tennessee. I think I have had them. I think I have it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm a fan. I'm a fan. Yeah.

I made some homemade chicken soup, and I took my chicken drumsticks, and I put them on the Trager. And it turned out freaking fantastic. Oh, yeah. Hot, too. I added a couple of serrano peppers in there. Oh.

You know, I haven't made them in a long time. I need to make my stuffed smoked jalapenos. split them, scrape them out. I've got a crab mixture I put in them, and then I've also got a pimento cheese that I put in them. Or my pomeo cheese and I have to have a cookoff on that front. Oh, mine are just simple. I'm sure I couldn't touch Rogers.

But I do have to go wrong with a pimento cheese sandwich. Oh, Chihu, I think you'd be really tickled with this pimento cheese I make. It's so good, just so good. and I you know I grade every never if you're going to make pimento cheese just one thing never ever buy the cheese that's already been shredded because they put a preservative on it to keep it from sticking together great always grate your own cheese oh really yeah yeah absolutely and if you still haven't made it if you still haven't made it Christopher you still need to make miss rosalind's plains cheese ring

Oh, yes, yes, yes, I still need to do that. Yes, I remember. You were going to say, Chihuahua? I was just going to say that once a month's Sunday after Easter, you know, during the summertime, you know, any church picnic in the South, then you should be able to get you a nice little pomella cheese spread semich. Oh, yeah, and all the way into college football season. No college football watch party in the South is. any good if it doesn't have the local recipe for pimento cheese.

Some people like to add, like, you know, really sharp cheese. I've even done it with the good blue cheese, but blue cheese is strong, and sharps are strong. And, but particularly with blues, you know, Stilton's, rocophore, Gorgonzola. Yeah, I know. Stilton cheese. Yes, yes, man.

Oh, my goodness. But a lot of people will stay away from it because it is stronger. But, oh, I love it. That's the one. Stilton is the one right there, especially if you can get unpasteurized, yeah. Oh, that raw, that, I know, I was making fun of raw milk earlier, but that raw milk, Gouda with truffles, little pieces of truffle chopped into it, that stuff was amazing.

I made a... Chewool, we got one for Roxanne. Roxanne, have you ever had an olive and egg sandwich? No. That's a Southside Chicago special. Is it like a fried egg? Yeah. It's green olives.

They have to be green. Oh, God, I love green olives. Yes. That's the one place where Victoria and I diverge in opinion. She doesn't like green olives, and she doesn't like green olives, and she doesn't. She just likes black olives, just plain black olives. Whereas, you know, bring me the Castelvatronos, bring me the blue cheese stuffed green ones, the jalapeno stuff, green ones, the garlic stuffed green ones. Yeah, oh, I love green olives.

Before you run off, Robin. Go ahead, Rep. Before you run off, Robin, I've got a little number for you, and that is Caitlin Jenner. just got her new passport and it calls her a mail and she's complaining that it's going to cause her some problems. A quote from her, so it really creates a big problem. And I'm trying to figure out at this point what to do, Jenner added. I don't blame President Trump. I love him.

But for a lot of people, this is a huge issue. Yeah. And then Anna Navarro at the view said, Oh, boo-hoo, cry me a fucking river. You reap what you sow. Yeah, karma sucks. I can no longer travel internationally. Aw.

Well, pity your poor sisters and nibblings and brothers who can't flee this goddamn country when it gets bad enough. She doesn't know what to do? Well, here's what you do, Kate. get somebody with a little bit of human empathy into the office instead of a bunch of pig-eyed, bigoted goons. Yeah. But I did. I heard the golden one.

He just told me to clock out. I have a sneaking suspicion. He smells the barbecue and wants a little morsel. I'll give him a bite from the inside, the so-called inside meat, because it doesn't have all the seasoning on it. It'll be very happy. Yeah, I worry about that with Arlo. Like, give them stuff like that.

Oh, you got to, I saw a picture the other day on a golden retriever site where somebody had a pizza that was just covered in onions, and their golden was sitting down there very patiently, and the person asked, should I give him one slice or two? I'm like, none? It's covered in onions? Those are toxic for fur babies? Yes. Oh, damn it.

You know, onions, garlic, right? Huh? Avocados. Yeah, I don't think they can have those either. I don't know, maybe I'm wrong. I told you about my grape. Yeah, no grapes. But they can have blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, carrots.

Funny thing is, I see all these reels of golden retrievers just munching down on carrots. I handed a carrot to shadow one day, and he looked at me like, what the hell is that you know the great irony is if you're trying to get rid of your dogs like christian omen onion probably costs more than a 22 shell oh jesus jeremy only you it's fucking good that's fucking good jeremy real good that's a great way to end up program

I sent the... picture of the barbecue to Asa before the program and said,

Feast Thine Eyes. Aza makes good barbecue too. Thanks, Emily, for the intro. Hey, y'all, for those of you who are doing it, maybe it's turning into a thing, leave us a remark, a comment on the podcast, wherever you download. Every time you do that, the algorithm notices, and maybe we get to meet new friends.

thanks to the hardest working bravest people i know the folks at cole river mountain watch crmw dot net over a quarter century at the forefront of the struggle for human rights and environmental justice in appalachia and a proud union shop please stay safe disease well you heard the numbers bobby kennedy's trying to kill people maybe he wants to cut out their genitals i don't know A little good news on the way out the door. Maybe the first guy to go will be Trash Patel. Over at the Atlantic earlier today,

Sarah Fitzpatrick said he's hanging onto his job by a thread because he's so weird and because he's such a creep. And, you know, then there's the graft and corruption of using government aircraft to fly his country music star girlfriend around. Patel, according to multiple current officials as well as former officials who have stayed close to him, is deeply concerned that his job is in jeopardy. He has good reasons to think so,

including some having to do with what witnesses described to me as bouts of excessive drinking. Imagine that. Further, as Fitzpatrick continues, Patel was among the officials expected to be fired after Attorney General Pam Bondi's ouster on April 2nd. We're all just waiting for the word that Patel is officially out of the top job, an FBI official told me this week.

And a former official told my colleague, Jonathan Lamar, that Patel was rightly paranoid. People at FBI describe his tenure as a management failure and his personal behavior as a national security vulnerability. his drinking has been such a problem his security detail has struggled to rouse him at times when he's needed for certain FBI duties a request for breaching equipment normally used by SWAT and hostage rescue teams to quickly gain entry into buildings was made last year because Patel had been unreachable

behind locked doors according to multiple people familiar with their request Jesus Christ I wanted to end the program with a little bit of good news So, like I said, stay safe. And, well, if Whalehead Dead Bear Brainworm Lamprey, Vash Bear Brain Worm Lamprey, comes towards you babbling something about,

You want children to have unsafe vaccines? I'll avoid him like the plague, because he may literally be, certainly is shaping up that way. And always, always, Gina and Wayne, it's all for you. Have a great weekend, everybody.

Talk to you in a little bit, Victoria. Later.
