Yeah, yeah. Today marks e the United States of Amer and convicted felon to be United States and it will to those of us that voted are today's headlines. Fu market crash. Trade wars have caused the Great Depression. Car prices face $3,000 increase.

Gas prices to rise. Wall Street Journal editorial board, the dumbest trade war ever. Hikes ahead of tax cuts spook everyone. The ultimate goal of all of this remains unclear. Trump says that Canada will cease to exist and the European Union warns their ally, the President of the United States, we will not be bullied. But let's hear from this con man and convicted felon first. No, no, I'm not going to say that. We may have short-term some — a little pain, and people understand that. But long-term, the United States has been ripped off by virtually every country in the

world. We have deficits with almost every country — not every country, but almost. And we're going to change it. It's been unfair. That's why we owe $36 trillion. We have deficits with everybody. We help everybody. We've been helping everybody

for years. And to be honest, I don't think they appreciate it. So we're going to change that. We're going to change it fast. We're going to make America great again. We have to focus on our country. We have tremendous potential if properly used, and we have to focus on our country. Tremendous deficits. I've heard enough. I'm so confused and so alarmed by what's happened over this last weekend. The tariffs, 25% on Mexico and Canada, who are our biggest trading partners, they're now retaliating. And for what? He says there's going to be a little pain in America. There's going to be a lot of pain in America. And the stock market is expected to crash today.

It makes no sense. There doesn't seem to be any reason for what he's doing other than distraction and shock and awe. But working families are the ones that are going to feel this the most. Prices are already soaring. It's just, I have no idea what he is thinking. Well, I think that's the big question is where's the grift in this? Because it's somewhere. There is some grift in here somewhere. This man is a con man. He runs an online flea market where he sells riffraff and knickknacks to a bunch of dumbed down Americans that only listen to right-wing media echo chambers. Everyone is going to suffer across the board. Why target the Canadians? And I found myself, when I was listening to Justin Trudeau speak over the

weekend, envious of the Canadian position that they're all going to unite against Trump and fight for their country. And I'm like, help us. We're here. And not everybody believes us, but watch this. This is last night at an NBA game, at a Raptors game. Listen to this. Your own Kyra Daniel. So there you have the national anthem of the United States and everybody's booing it, which who can blame them? Right. This is utter insanity. But my question is where who's benefiting from this? Let's follow the money because either he is just this breathtakingly stupid and is surrounded by this many people that are breathtakingly stupid, or somebody has gotten into his ear that is going to benefit from this a lot because he always has

some sort of motive and some sort of grift. And I don't know the answer to that. But I do know that these trade wars are not going to benefit us. Our national security inflation is through the roof. And then it's going to be even more through the roof. And you have the United States of America literally self-sabotaging. We are self-sabotaging our position. The Wall Street Journal editorial board said the next president, whoever wins, is inheriting a fabulous economy. But here we go. I mean, here we are. What's interesting to me about it is I thought

Trudeau's pointed response that they were going to look to hurt red states the most. Part of me agreed with that because these are the people that refuse to be up to date on information, who refuse critical thinking, who refuse facts, who refuse expertise. And so Canada apparently has some strategy to make them feel the economic ramifications of these tariffs the most and i part of me is hopeful even though we live in a red state because these people defy logic canada said they were asked why are you doing that and they said we have to fight smart and it is smart it is a smart way to fight this in a pointed way that there are states that they know, like the state we live in, where over 60 percent voted for Trump, where they need to feel it the most because you're you're buying into this con. run has filed bankruptcy, has gone bankrupt. He's bankrupted a casino. And all of these people are about to find out you cannot run government like you run a business. It doesn't work that way.

But you remember that podcaster Tim Pool, who it was revealed was being paid by Vladimir Putin. Kylie, pop up this tweet. He says, after we destroy the Canadian economy, their will to resist will erode. We will then march in unopposed and deliver Canada to its rightful place as a territory of the U.S. with no political representation. The intellectualist retweeted this with comment and said, this is what MAGA is advocating, the annexation, occupation, and subjugation of our Canadian allies, driven by a desire to plunder their natural resources, an ambition that, in its essence, mirrors the expansionist aggression of history's most notorious regimes. Normally, I wouldn't pay much attention to a podcaster like Tim Pool, but because we have such anemic

leadership, conspiracy theory leadership at the top levers of American, and I say this in quotes right now, democracy, I'm thinking if this guy was on Putin's payroll, maybe he can read the tea leaves into this more. Is this like a play like Putin does with Ukraine to take land? And he's got Marco Rubio. And I mean, Elon Musk is a total alleged drug addict running our country. Are we serious right now? Well, I think that if you look at the behavior so far in the Trump administration, Elon Musk is definitely the

one in power. And in terms of why is he doing this, does Russia want Canada? Does Russia want Greenland? Is that why we're picking fights with these people we have no fight with? I mean, that's as good of an answer as any. Okay, before we go further, we want you to support us by supporting our sponsor. Pumps and I have been researching these episodes. Okay, next up. Last night, a person who we all blame for a lot of this is Mitch McConnell. And he does a little stint on 60 Minutes. And I'm sorry, viewer, and I'm sorry, listener, but we're all going to have to listen to painful shit to get through this.

Kylie, play the clip. What about tariffs against our allies? It will drive the cost of everything up. In other words, it'll be paid for by American consumers. I mean, why would you want to get in a fight with your allies over this? OK, exactly, Mitch. Why would we want to get in a fight with our allies? Call me crazy, but I was raised and went to public schools in the United States of America, and I learned about the checks and balances, three branches of government. hacking into the government checkbook. That guy's name is Elon Musk. We have a dipshit who's bankrupted every company he's ever had that has an online flea market, convicted felon Donald Trump

picking fights with our allies. And why isn't Congress checking? You've wielded a big stick in government for a long time. You put up with this shit. You've screwed up the Supreme Court. This man has said racist things about your wife. Do one decent thing before you die and get Congress together to intervene. Everybody has a vested interest in this. There's no reason to tank the economy. This is utter insanity. Pumps, what are your thoughts? Well, I look at Mitch McConnell and I think you are not running for reelection. You have stepped down from a leadership position. What do you have to lose by fighting for the American people? Because right after he said the tariffs are going to hurt the American consumer, why would

you do that with your allies? He said he would probably support most of Trump's agenda. What you should be doing, Mitch McConnell, since you have nothing to lose in terms of your seat in the Senate, is to be fighting for the American people, is to be sounding the alarm that the executive branch is usurping the other branches of government. But he doesn't do that. He sits on 60 minutes and he hides behind, well, I'm a Republican and we have the same agenda. Mitch, he is trying to turn the United States of America into an autocracy. Why are you going along with it, especially after he insulted your wife. It is beyond ridiculous. He is beyond the worst leader.

He sucks. And it's so frustrating to sit here and hear politicians acknowledge how insane this is. And then they sit around and do nothing. And we're a country of over 300 million people, the largest economy in the world. And we elected a total moron. People that have egg on their face, you're going to have to come out and say, hey, I screwed up, but we have got to reverse course. And I have zero faith that that's going to happen. I have zero faith that we're going to have checks and balances. And we're all out here just literally fucked. It's unbelievable.

We're all going to watch the stock market crash here any minute. And here we go. You know, Trump selling his riffraffs and knickknacks. And Elon Musk is running around hacking into the United States of America's checkbook. This is utter insanity. We're not, he's not trying to turn it into an autocracy. He's done it in two weeks time in record time. And I have been very disappointed with the response by the Democrats, Democrats. Why are they not pounding the table and screaming,

doing everything they can to alert the American people on what a disturbing turn of events this is, and to try to stop Elon Musk and Donald Trump. And I just haven't heard it the way I would like to hear it. All right, we'll see you all later.
