Starting point is 00:00:00 Okay, there's been so much drama with Musk and Trump and their breakup. And Musk is on Twitter calling Steve Bannon a peak R-word over and over and an R-word communist. And we could just dive into that. We've already done about four episodes on it, but there's just other stuff we have to cover that's super important. So do not leave us. It's important that we all know all of this stuff.
Starting point is 00:00:26 And of course, fleabag Donald Trump has run his golf course Bedminster into the ground, put this up. Trump's Bedminster Golf Club flagged for 18 health violations in latest inspection, earned lowest grade in county. Okay, so here's what I have to say about this, MAGA, 77 million of you.
Starting point is 00:00:48 He's bankrupted everything he's ever done. Bankrupted casinos, fraud with the Trump University. Who would sign up for that is beyond me in another podcast psychological episode entirely. And then he obviously, Bedminster Golf Club is a flea bag. It's a total roach motel, a surprise to no one. And then he obviously, Bedminster Golf Club is a flea bag. It's a total roach motel, a surprise to no one. How is it that MAGA people think that this man is going to be good at the federal government?
Starting point is 00:01:15 It's just unbelievable how much deference the American public is willing to give somebody who happens to have zeros behind their net worth in a bank account somewhere. It's fundamentally a flaw of the American public to assume that because somebody has wealth and or access to wealth, that they're good at anything. And that's something America needs to reconcile, whether it's this Bedminster golf course, fleabag university, fleabag tennisennis Shoe Brand, Marie Antoinette and the Oval. He drives everything into the ground.
Starting point is 00:01:49 He drives everything into the ground. And I think a lot of the American people and the fascination with Donald Trump came from The Apprentice. And I think that a large shortcoming is that people just assumed because he was a boss on TV, he ran a good business. And nobody took agency and did it, you know, even a light Google search to know what a fraud he was because everybody in New York knew he was a fraud because that's where he was his whole life. He was universally known in Manhattan and ostracized. But I think TV made people think, oh, he's a great businessman. Yeah. And he's very good about optics, the illusion of wealth. And even before The Apprentice, I remember in the late 80s, early 90s, I remember Trump and the gold and the house in Manhattan.
Starting point is 00:02:39 And he was good at branding. He's very good at optics and branding, which is just the illusion. He's good at that. He's very good. When you translate that to running a government, he's very good at propagandizing because that's what that is, is propagandizing. Basically he's been propagandizing himself for a very long time prior to even being in politics. This is a weird thing that Trump is doing. We have children ranging from age
Starting point is 00:03:08 18 to 24. We understand young people. We love our children very, very, very much. They should not be in charge of anything at the federal government. Trump and his ex-boyfriend, Musk, really like hiring teenagers and people in their 20s put this up. One year out of college and with no apparent national security expertise, Thomas Fugate is the Department of Homeland Security official tasked with overseeing the government's main hub for combating violent extremism. And this one really hits hard for us that live here in Oklahoma. In 1995, there was the bombing of the federal building. Everybody in Oklahoma, it was terror in the heartland. It was horrible. I remember when the bomb went off.
Starting point is 00:04:02 There was this effort to address right-wing extremism. And if any group of people should fight against anti-government right-wing extremism, it would be the citizens of Oklahoma. And much to my surprise, these citizens in this state vote for parties that cover for right wing extremists, vote for parties wherein Timothy McVeigh's hate and conspiracies were born. And the fact that that hasn't been reconciled and called out here on a local level is fascinating to me. Not only have they not combated it, I would say their participation in MAGAS shows that
Starting point is 00:04:47 they are now far right-wing conspiracists. And here's the thing, I look at this appointment and I think that is a very serious problem in the United States. The FBI has said, not this FBI, but the former FBI head, Christopher Wray, who was appointed by Trump during 1.0, said that right-wing domestic terrorism is the biggest problem. So we put somebody that's linked in profile shows that he did landscaping before this. Then you have Kristi Noem in charge of the homeland. And then you put Pete Hexess in charge of the military.
Starting point is 00:05:24 And all of that tells me we don't give a shit if we're attacked because we're putting incompetent people in charge of our safety. Don't you think it's not we don't give a shit? It's that we want to empower loyalists that are willing to break the law for Trump because he will pardon you. I think it's even deeper than that. It's more intentional. It's more pointed. They want to make sure there are no investigations into the Proud Boys and all the anti-Semites and all the racist groups. They want to make sure they are an armed militia that's ready to go. that's ready to go. I mean, that's teed up. And as when you see what happened in Oklahoma City, when these people and Timothy McVeigh wasn't just a lone wolf. He traveled around with all of these extremist groups. These extremist groups that did the Oklahoma City
Starting point is 00:06:18 bombing are the same as the extension of MAGA. It's never been dealt with because of right-wing media. Rush Limbaugh, Fox News, Alex Jones, and all these other fleabags. They rile up this white rage. This white rage in this country is something that has got to be reconciled. These people are so fearful of globalism. I'll tell you just a personal anecdote. I was at this function for my son and with other parents. And this guy, he was a football coach, was standing there and he was talking about something about Obama and like said
Starting point is 00:06:56 it in like a despairing, disparaging way about Obama. He's like, yeah, it's like Obama. And I was like, oh, I like Obama. And he goes, well, I mean, you like like him? I said, yeah, it's like Obama. And I was like, oh, I like Obama. And he goes, well, I mean, you like him here. Yeah, I like him. And I pulled out a picture of you and me standing with Obama when we interviewed him. And he goes, well, I just don't like globalists. I go, what's a globalist? You know, knowing what he's talking about, which is a total anti-Semitic trope in right wing circles. When they say globalist, they're talking about George Soros, who's Jewish and other Jewish people. It's totally linked to anti-Semitism.
Starting point is 00:07:31 And so I said, what's a globalist? And he said, well, uh, uh, uh, and I go, what's, like, give me an example, like name one American that's a globalist. Well, uh, uh, uh, and he couldn't. But this man, I guarantee fucking T, freebases and snorts and dry humps the Alex Jones part of the internet. And I guarantee you, he's got a closet full of guns. And this American profile of a white guy, and here's the deal, he's a football coach. American
Starting point is 00:08:01 football is dominated by African-American athletes. And so there's this reconciliation that we've got to have that involves race, white rage, and all of these things. And it's just all come up to a boiling point. Trump is stoking the fire for it, I think. And this is a perfect example with this guy leading the charge. Okay. And next up we have Stephen Miller, who's disappointed in the deportation numbers.
Starting point is 00:08:26 Pop this up. Stephen Miller is in a rage over deportation numbers he deems too low. So he's shifting huge amounts of law enforcement resources away from fighting serious crimes and into his immigration crackdown. And so, you know, this is Stephen Miller's, this is his optimal porn, is deporting people. Interestingly enough, his wife is a minority. It's really fascinating at the component within MAGA that's white supremacist and deferential to white supremacy and hetero-normative standards. Yet there's all this self-loathing in it. One example comes to mind, and it was when Fox News was wrestling with the fact that JD Vance's wife was Indian.
Starting point is 00:09:20 And he says, well, you know, I love Usha. She's great. She can't help it that she's not white. Something to that extent that I'm paraphrasing. So it's a really interesting component to the whole MAGA world that you've got Peter Till gay, colluding with the anti-gays. JD Vance, probably gay, colluding with the anti-gays. JD Vance, probably gay, colluding with the anti-gays, with a wife that's a minority,
Starting point is 00:09:52 and colluding with the white supremacists. Stephen Miller, who is Jewish, but sounds like a Nazi, put on a Nazi style Madison Square Garden rally for Trump and is married to a minority. So there's the psychological case study of the self-loathing in all of these people, like Stephen Miller being a Jewish Nazi, anti-gay gays, anti-women women. It's really phenomenal what's going on with the cognitive dissonance with all of them. Well, I think that cognitive dissonance is what is on parade with the MAGA movement all the time because they are impossible. You cannot make them critically think. Okay. And then one more headline, Rolling Stone magazine. Yes, the Trump admin is still very much attacking abortion rights. The administration rescinded Biden era guidance requiring hospitals
Starting point is 00:10:57 to provide emergency abortions, regardless of state law. And this is the part where a lot of MAGA are going to have to find out that a lot of religious Republicans were very anti-gay and then they have a gay child or a gay grandchild or a trans, you know, and then they find enlightenment or they turn into complete assholes. Those are your two choices. With this, there's going to be a lot of people that it never occurred to them that abortion was healthcare. Because the right has propagandized for decades the lie that it is murder, which it is not. That is a lie that is not rooted in fact. They have all of these religious rubes believing all of this.
Starting point is 00:11:46 What's going to happen in a lot of these red states is you're going to have somebody who's in their 20s or 30s, breeding years, who triple trumped it, did all the stuff that they were supposed to do, were good little girls, went to Sunday school, didn't get knocked up before they got married, and then they're going to get married. And then there's some complication with that pregnancy. And it's, it's a life or death situation. And the doctors look at that little girl, that woman, and say, we're unable to do anything because we don't want to go to prison. And then the parents and all of these triple Trumpers are going to be like, well, wait, I need this medically. This isn't murder because you're saying that my baby's going to be dead by
Starting point is 00:12:29 the time it's born anyway. And they're going to find out all of this shit that when you have MAGA men up in your pap smear and up in your Vagene, they're there. And it's either privacy or not. And you either have HIPAA or you don't. You either support women and the right to freedom of religion or you fucking don't. For all of you people that want to live in a Christian nationalist world, read a history book. We've had that before. It doesn't end well.
Starting point is 00:13:04 I think the through line for all of this, and it's the same with religion, it's misogyny. Women are told what they can do by men. We deport people that are brown. We are homophobic because we think marriage should be between a man and a woman. So it's going to end up, they're coming after all of us. It's not just women, it's not just gays, it's not just black and brown people. They are coming after everybody that is not white and Christian and hopefully rich because the poor people are going to get locked in this too. So it's total and complete massaging. Here's the thing the Christians need to understand. These technocrats, the Elon Musk, the Peter Thiel's of it. Well, actually,
Starting point is 00:13:47 I did read that Peter Thiel was raised evangelical. So maybe that's one of the reasons why he's fucked up because very few people escape an evangelical childhood without some level of brokenness. But a lot of these people in Silicon Valley that want all of the power are not religious, but they know it's easiest to control religious people. Nobody knows this better than Putin because how he was able to infiltrate American society were two places, the National Prayer Breakfast and the NRA. The fact that all of the Jesus folks are also big gun folks is just a whole other episode that we can do entirely. Like Jesus would be the big defender of guns.
Starting point is 00:14:31 But anyway, we could talk about all this shit forever, all the time, all the fuckery. But until then, please, speaking of fuckery, buy our book, Life is a Lazy Susan of Shit Sandwiches. And we'll see you all later.
