Weekly Skews - Weekly Skews – 3/11/25 – Canada Strikes Back and DC’s Hot New Fascist Frat House

Episode Date: March 11, 2025

Today, we’re talking about Canada’s yellowcake uranium, Wayne Gretzky becoming their Hanoi Jane, and how they found their freedom fries. Then, Tennessee Brando joins us to discuss how one Volunteer State congressman chilling in a Bible thumping treehouse connects to everything going on in politics: financial fraud, fundamentalism, pathetic sucking up, and a rich donor who made his wife watch sex tapes he made with other women.Support the show

all right welcome back everybody time for another another uh another starting rendition of weekly skews this is uh let's say as you're watching this it's march 11th it is skewsy where you are and uh we're recording this yesterday march 10th 2 o 3 p.m on the left coast that's the time and place we are in the world as we sit down to do this i'm trey and that's mark and a little later we got a nice little surprise for you. You're going to be joined by a guest more on that as we go. But Mark, how are you doing? I'm good, bud. I want to talk about a couple of things. Today's show, we'll be talking about doings with Canada and how

we've got them amped up for war. And then we were talking about some stuff going on in Tennessee, revolving around Andy Ogles as a window into Washington Republican culture, where they all live in a giant house together doing secret fascist stuff funded by a weird pervert. Just right in our wheelhouse. Before we get the show, though, I want to talk about a couple of things going on as we rebel against wokenness. The United States was a sole member of the United Nations to vote no on a resolution declaring an International Day of Hope last week. Yeah.

We're... Hope's gay. We're officially opposed... By the National Day of kicking ass. How about that? I'm an international day of being a man. Yeah. It's just so on the nose and absurd.

Yeah. The official position of the United States. Yeah. We could have a war on hope. uh so when i say we're the only people who vote no on it ukraine and russia both voted for the day of hope while they're actively trying to kill each other and we did not we also voted against a resolution titled an international day of peaceful coexistence like well you're for peaceful coexistence where do you fucking france yeah right

oh my god that's complete did they give any kind of like actual uh rationale for that or just voted no one left it at that? Like, did they try to, you know, rationalize it or they're just like... In their defense, and I put defense in air quotes because it's also stupid, the coexistence thing did have some like sustainability and environmental language in it.

So there you go on that if you want to give them an excuse. But like this, but you don't have to give them that excuse because everything's so goddamn dumb. The National Cancer Institute is part of the, you know, the ongoing woke slash DEI purge, release new guidelines for quote,

controversial, high-profile, or sensitive keywords that require review prior to publication. Some of the keywords include abortion, obviously, obesity, so we can't even talk honestly about our biggest public health crisis, and peanut allergies. We cannot save the kids with peanut allergies because that is woke, Trey. Yeah, right. Yeah, the abortion and even the peanut allergies I can get with, because it's like, it all comes down to general lack of empathy, and there's definitely like a boomer pap I'll take for a while that's like, I mean, Louis C.K. even had a bit about it on one of his

specials he was like of course i think we should take care of every child of course i do but also do does part of me kind of think if we all just look the other way for a year this problem would solve itself you know but right people think that there's definitely people who think that kids with pen allergies are just like being pussies or whatever and it's it's insane but but obesity though like i thought that i thought that the i thought the woke side of that argument was body positivity, right? So, like, saying like, hey, obese is a slur. You shouldn't say that. I'm a, I'm a, I'm a wide American. I'm a, I don't know. This is to the National Cancer Institute, though. This is about research into how being obese would affect your response to cancer treatment. I know. I know, but I'm saying as far as their justification for getting rid of those words, I'm saying abortion and peanut allergies tracks for me, but obesity, it seems like they're on the other side of where I would have expected them to be. on that one is what I'm saying. I would have thought if you saw a person saying,

you know, actually obesity is outdated. We don't use that term anymore. They would call that woke. They would bitch out that being woke. You know, they're just kind of all over the place, is all I'm trying to say.

Right, yeah. The funniest one, though, is the Pentagon flighted a bunch of stuff for removal from their archives, you know, a bunch of photos and stuff based on, you know, a military history.

And some of the, Some of the flows flagged for removal, let me quote here, we're flagged simply because their file included the word gay, including service members with that last name and an image of the B-29 aircraft Enola Gay, which dropped the first A-bomb on Hiroshima. So we can't talk about whether or not we should have dropped the bomb, but we can delete the name of the plane that did it because it has the word gay.

And also, if your name is Rupert, Your last, Rupert Gay, your last name's gay, and you charged, uh, you know, a machine gun nest in, in Korea and got a metal for it. Your name's now deleted too. Um, right. So, yeah, is this, this all like, uh, so yeah, it, these things are flagged for a move. Is this like, AI or some kind of something doing this? Yeah. Yeah. Well, just like, also just like can find and replace control. Yeah, right. Yeah. That's why I put AI in quotes because I, I realized that not everything is fucking AI, but, you know, we've had the ability to, yeah, find and replace for a long time but it's an automated thing is what i'm saying yeah that getting rid of yeah stuff like

the annola gay again you know i would think would be one of their favorite parts of all of world war two history yeah yeah the far will we bomb japan we're gonna we're we're ramp we're ramping up to calling curtis bombs away lemae woke yeah yeah all right well uh let's get into it this is weekly skews. Our guest a little bit later is going to join us is one of the only Tennessee brando beloved online social commentator that I know has a lot of overlap with our

But producer Matt is back from across the pond. He's back in his normal confines, doing his normal stuff back there. You know, we're

Now, as for the show tonight, I already told you. Tennessee Brando is going to be with us to talk about Andy Ogles and all the other dumbassery back in my

beloved home state, go titans. They're also being very stupid today, just so everyone knows. But anyway, but before we get to all that, we got some other stuff first, including the Daily Dumbass. Graphic? Is there a graphic? There it went. There it was. Tonight's DD. After that lovely graphic is El Chapo's Canadian cousin Le Chapo for thinking he could get away with it. This is Kevin Hassett, director of the National Economic Council.

Of course, fairness issues. Let's just be fair. Whatever you do us, we'll do you. That's what he's asking for at April. And it's not a radical idea at all. Let me ask, because I am confused now, but what you're saying about this being a drug war, not a trade war, so let's think Canada. I mean, you said Canada's shipping fentanyl into the United States. I mean, I don't think that's happening. I mean, one percent of fentanyl is being smuggled across the border. One percent, I mean, Canada's not a major source at all of fentanyl in the United States. Well, yes, they are a major source, and I can tell you that in the great room I've seen photographs of fentanyl labs in Canada that the law enforcement.

when folks were leaving alone. Canada's a big drug problem. This whole thing, like, reminds me of when we justified going into Iraq after 9-11 or whatever when they didn't have anything to do. That's what I keep thinking about when it comes to Canada and this drug war ships. First of all, that's a very tenuous, like, justification, even for the Mexico part of the trade war. But the Canada part, trying to rope that into the fentanyl talk or whatever. It just, you can't, I don't know how anybody can even say, pretend with a strike face that that makes any goddamn sense whatsoever, you know.

It does remind me of like, pretending that like Iraq was trying to require yellow cake uranium. But also it's, but it's even different to that because to me it also reminded me of like when Russia said that COVID was invented in bio labs in Ukraine as part of their justification to invade it. And like, so he said like he's seen pictures in the White House situation room of fentanyl labs in Canada that law enforcement is leaving. leaving alone. Okay, fentanyl is a legal narcotic. If they have labs making fentanyl, it is like with guys in lab coats, not Walter White. All right.

That makes me wonder what people are thinking. Like, I've been watching that new medical show, The Pit, which I think is pretty popular, I believe. I think a lot of people watching it. And like, it's very realistic medically, as I understand it. And so they be giving people fint and stuff. Now, you know, people that are like about to fucking die or a really bad way. And I hadn't thought about, like, I wonder what all these, I wonder what a lot of Maga types watching that show think is happening whenever they hear that.

You know, they've been, the medical industry has been infiltrated by the Mexican cartels or something like that. It's like, they're giving people heroin in the hospital now. Nobody understands how anything it works. Yeah, heroin was also originally a painkiller. But like, the, I know, I know you know, yeah. But, so like, like, so the second part of this, this is the second time in a couple weeks we've used a video clip of HACET. Last time I sent him out to talk about eggs and the bird flu. Now they sent him to talk about Fentil and Canada.

Again, he's the chairman of Trump's national, he's the director, sorry, of Trump's National Economic Council. He's not an expert in any of this shit. They're like, he sent the economist guy to argue this isn't a trade war, it's a drug war. All this is so stupid. And I mentioned that Hassett's even bad at his regular job of being an economist. Let me give you a little bit of his background here, okay? He co-authored a book in 1999 called Dow 36,000, basically argued the story.

stock market would always go up and when he hit 36,000 by 2004. The dot-com bubble immediately burst after he published his book. And with the three, it was, so instead of going from 10,000 to 36,000, like he said it would, it went down to like six. Okay. He also built a model back in 2020 that indicated that COVID-19 dust would drop off to near zero by May of 2020. Yeah.

It's not how I remember that going. No, May of 2020. he's a fucking idiot okay he's not even good at the thing he's an expert on they're sending him out to pontificate about things he knows about who which he even academically knows nothing okay this thing's worse than me like betting on football games yes like he went out of it even though it was was possible god damn put this man on fandul who'd be broken an hour and a half so but part of this is like this whole conversation the way it's covered like i've seen american reporters like serious Washington journalists being like everybody

calm down. We're not invading Canada. It's like, well, a bunch of Americans are like lethal, like let's take Canada. It's like, we're so detached from war. Like, we think of war as something we do to other people or that happens on our TVs and not like a horrific mass mechanized death event. And it's very weird to me, but like Canada has to take it seriously. Right. If we had a more powerful neighbor threatening to invade us, we would damn sure fucking take it seriously. And Justin Trudeau in one of his last speeches, as prime minister said, trade war is just to economically break them so we can annex them. Okay.

So. Yeah, they seem pretty, I just said I was in Minnesota or, you know, this week and there was like a lot of people either from, like originally from Canada or married to somebody and now lives in Minnesota or whatever, just were in town temporarily. People were bringing me maple leaves and stuff like that.

And also one of the guys on the show with me this weekend, shout out, Ola, his name is Ola Dada. He's from Vancouver comedian. And when he first got there, because we'd never met, we didn't know each other. first got there he was like he's like hey you don't he told the host he's like you don't have to

mention that i'm from canada it's all right he's like i know everything's like kind of tense and weird right now and i told him i was like oh no buddy these fucking people i was like it'll be fine and i just said it would be fine he was like really i was like it'll be more than fine then he gets up there and just says hey i'm from canada and he got a standing ovation for being Canadian from my ground so it's like it's it's all a lot of people's minds and i understand that Canada's very, they're very united in their response to it, as I understand it. And it's like, this is not a popular thing, even like, like, I'm sure the hardcore my mega-cycles are ramped up for World Warwick Canada, but like, I'm even seeing Ben Shapiro

post-Procanago stuff in defense of Canada. Like, this is not like something that's like, has some sort of mass movement behind it. Um, about what's going on over there and what they're going to, what they're going to do to us to get to fuck with us back. And please fuck us up real quick, Canada, so we, so we don't follow through with any part of this. Uh, Ontario, Ontario's premier, which is Ontario is Canada's most popular as province. That's Doug Ford, I believe,

said they're slapping 25% tariffs on electricity. They provide electricity for 1.5 million Americans in Minnesota, New York, and Michigan. And they basically said they're going to fucking turn it off completely if you don't cut it out. So I'm not sure

what a summer without air conditioning would do to people in Minnesota. But like, I feel like people need to fucking, Americans need to learn what actual material deprivation is a little bit because we're acting like we're fucking Jesus Christ No, I mean, you know, you're right

because it's like, I think a big part of it is that really for most of us, most of the time in America, it's like it's where a lot of the political apathy comes from is like things don't really change all that much or they haven't generally. Like depending, like from regime to regime. Like most people's day to day lives

stay largely the same. And you know, and we've been like In addition to that, so I think that a lot of people who are all for whatever Trump is saying to do, and even when they get told about the dire consequences of it, they just, part of them just doesn't, just does not and cannot, will not believe that that type of thing can happen, like, that their lights could be out for months or whatever. Like, and so, you know, there's no other way to teach that lesson, I don't think, than for it to happen.

Part of this cynicism and, like, the detachment of our particular moment is like, like, for decades, run on stuff that in the end they were two chicken shit to do right right so like like so it starts sounds like hyperventilating or exaggerating to say they want to end the department of education even though they're campaigning to end the department of education because they don't end up falling through and deleting the department of education right but like a lot of americans about to find out that their local college is a federal program um right and i don't think they were aware of that before but like it's it's real fuck around found out hours um but like going back to it's going on in Canada about how they are

fucking getting amped up for this shit the rise of Canadian nationalism is fascinating to me because I think I've mentioned this before but I've seen like I've talked about Canadians I've heard talk about it like there wasn't any sort of Canadian national identity hardcore one up until now and now they've got one and it's with us as the fucking enemy number one

I saw a Canadian writer say this has turned Quebec wild separatist and the Canadian nationalist and made same people agree with and cheer for Doug Ford. Doug Ford's brother was a crackhead famously and he's a gross thing they have crackheads what I always say

every comes up I guess it's the most astonishing thing about him to me but anyway and he's like sort of like the face of like

the vulgar business mega-e sort of Trumpist Canadian movement part of it anyway and we've even got Doug Ford wearing stupid

nationalist hats check out this Canada's not for sale is their version on the MAGA hat it's blue of course and it looks definitely more high quality

than a MAGA hat I'll give him that so Justin Trude is no longer Prime Minister. The Liberal Party elected the new one over the weekend. We got him Mark Carney, one with 86% of the vote, which is basically the Ba'ath Party Saddam level numbers. But to be clear, though, that's like, it's 86% of the vote of his own party, right?

The way that were... People don't vote on the Prime Minister up there. They put a party into power, and the party selects the Prime Minister. So it'd be like the Democrats putting Chuck Schumer in with 85% of the voters. It'd be like elected a new Speaker of the House is also. They have a state, basically. Yeah. Right.

So, let me quote from Cardi's victory speech. Okay, these are dark days brought on by a country we can no longer trust talking about us. America is not Canada, and Canada never, ever will be part of America in any way, shape, or form. Now, like you said, this is just, this is just an intra-party election. They haven't gotten to the general yet. Here's an attack ad. The liberal party is running on Pierre Pilevera, Pilev, yeah. The conservative party leader, if you got this ad, Matt.

It's pretty fucking stark. You get rid of that artificially drawn line. Polyev would roll over for Trump. He'd sell off our public health care so American investors can profit. And he'd give Americans control of our natural resources. You get rid of that artificially drawn line? Our very country is at stake. And Polyev agrees with Trump.

No wonder Trump endorsed Polyev. Our views would be more aligned, certainly. That's Polyev. But it's just not. Canada. So that feels like a 2012 era ad from a super PAC called like Americans for, you know, freedom over like the logo like a skull and crossbones, an American flag on it. And it would be like,

they're basically saying Pierre Hussein Pellev. Yeah, but it's also wild because, I mean, I don't know, obviously, I don't know shit about Canadian politics, really. I had just, I had somehow gotten the impression from the internet and social media and stuff before all this shit that there was that the party that because again it's not how it works but the party that Pahliaev represents her as part of that they were like almost certainly going to walk away with the next elections like they were like leading by a lot because people were sick of Trudeau and the liberals up there and everything and now I don't maybe

they still will win I don't know but like it's like it's just been a seismic shift in in the Canadian politics based entirely on Trump's bullshit. He might still win a plurality, but be locked out of the majority by coalition government. So that's within the realm of possibilities.

But like, because nationalism is inherently stupid, not just when we do it, the Canadian nationalism has led to a few some collateral damage. I'm talking about Wayne Gretzky. Yeah. I thought this picture.

So I didn't realize that Wayne Gretzky was MAGA. I didn't either. I just heard him on some podcast, too, not that long ago. And I was like, I was like, Wayne Gretzky,

he's pretty cool dude. I like this guy. And then like two months later, I saw him, I saw this picture, I saw a picture. There's literally pictures of him wearing MAGA hats and stuff.

Like, he's definitely down with it. Yeah. So he's basically become their Hanoy Jane. Yeah. Well, when we had that,

when we had that Four Nations game, the games we played against them or whatever, uh, he was honored at their game in Canada, but apparently came out from the U.S.'s bench and like fucking shook hands with all the U.S. players and sat over there and stuff because he's like his wife and kids are all American. He's been here for decades and never even goes back to Canada and is like so all this stuff they've been pointing out since every, you know, this has all been coming out recently and they're mad at him. And again, dude, he's the best hockey player of all time and it's Canada. Like this, it's a big, it's a huge betrayal for them. Right. It's all I'm saying. Like it's hard. At the Four Nations thing, he's also like an honorary team captain for Team Canada, and he didn't wear Canada jersey.

Right. That's what I'm talking about. He attended Trump's inauguration. He hangs out at Mar-a-Lago all the time. He was at an election night party in November with a mega hat on. So Doug Ford, getting back to Doug real quick, when he gave a speech about all this, he talked about how he called up Wayne. Wayne's a real Canadian patriot, leave him alone. He got choked up when I talked about his love for Canada, whatever.

So now there's a campaign in Niagara on the lake where Wayne Gretzky has a winery. They're trying to get his name taken off the winery because it doesn't actually, it doesn't have to own it, which is like, I'm glad we all do this particular kind of dumb shit anymore. And then Trump hopped on truth to defend Wayne Gretzky saying, Wayne Gretzky is a fantastic guy. They call him the great one, and he is. Thanks, thanks, Trump. So they're also doing the Freedom Fries bit. A bunch of... They're doing their version of Freedom Fries.

It's with coffee shops, so basically a bunch of Canadian coffee shops have renamed the Americano, the Canadiano. It's all so humiliating for everyone involved. I didn't even know this. The only thing, like I'm talking about the hegemony of American culture or the blankness, bleakness thereof. The thing that's named after us in Canada

is an Italian caffeine drink, which wasn't even invented by us. I didn't realize this. I thought it was, I thought the story was that American GIs in the war, whatever, introduced the Americano to other people, whatnot, because in Europe, it's like espresso shit, right? Americano's just espresso with water. It watered down espresso, like, right? Right. Let me quote, let me quote how embarrassing this is. The Americano coffee drink seems to have begun when American soldiers were stationed in Italy at the end of World War II.

American GIs have helped defeat Mussolini's army, but they found traditional Italian espresso a little too intense to chug, so Italian baris has added hot water. Yeah. the Americana was named after us because Italians thought we were soft. Yeah. Well, fair enough. But that, yes, that is still, that's the story that I thought. It's funny, I never thought of it.

It's framing, it's being framed as like, you know, us being too soft for real coffee. But I guess that's what, that's what happened. We also brought donuts over there, by the way, during World War II. So, you know, there was some, there was some bad before us. It took spam to Hawaii. Anyway, yeah, no, man, this fucking, this can't, this can't, this can't, this can't, Canada stuff is just the type of thing that even during the whole Trump era, this is the type of thing that I still never anticipated or would have thought would be possible or that I would see. It's truly, truly crazy.

I just, I've always taken it for granted that we'd always be cool with Canada, you know. Like I never imagined some shit like this happening. And, hey, here we are to shift our focus a little closer to home. Our guest is here in the green room. and bring him out here to talk about all things my home state all things tennessee's renowned social commentator singer-songwriter and might as touch contributor the uh the eloquently the incisive the inimitable tennessee brando what's up buddy how you doing man it's good to be here and great to meet you finally yeah i appreciate again i've known of you and your stuff for a long time because again

there's a lot of overlap and whatnot but just real quick if you don't mind before we get into all the bullshit in tennessee just like a sort of a small intro to people like to our listeners anyone that aren't familiar with you yet tell them like you know your thing where they can find you what you do for yeah yeah i'm over on youtube you can find me there under tn brando on instagram and tick tock it's tn underscore brando so uh one way or the other you can find me i've been doing this now since about 2020 really when the pandemic started it's when i started doing this and it just picked up steam and so uh yeah i'm pretty much i'm also on sub stack that's a new one to me substack and blue sky i'm over there on those new ones as well so people can find

it's always a new thing you got to be part of. I don't even do the substack. That's the only one yet. Every time a new one pops up, it's like, okay, I guess I'll do that one now. But anyway, that there's Mark. He's our co-host, and he's outlined a lovely bit of

misery from back home, back home for me from, you know, around your way. What part of Tennessee are you in, Brenda? I'm up in the Cumberland Gap. I'm about 40 miles north of Knoxville. Okay. I'm from a mountain, buddy, Appalachian, way up there. Yeah, my great. My granny's family's from

at Johnson City, so he's Tennessee. So I'm really from Virginia. I'm right on the tri-state. I can be in all three states in like 10 minutes. So you don't live in Andy Ogles District then, but how familiar with the life and history of Mr. Andy Ogles, congressman from Central Tennessee? I'm not too familiar with his whole history.

I've just been keeping up with him lately because of all the insane stuff he's been saying, you know, wanting Trump to have a third term and all this. So he's definitely caught our attention. So he represents, like I said, a district outside of Nashville. His district used to be a safe seat for Democrats, but they germinated the hell out of it to neuter all the libs who hang out of Kid Rockspar, I guess. But so the last time we talked about him was because News Channel 5, Phil Williams, had done what they had gone in on him, which he tends to do. We love Phil Williams around here.

I just found out that Oval did falsely claim to be a trained economist, a cop, and an expert in international sex crimes. and he had used a stillborn death of a child to raise $25,000 for a hypothetical burial garden that was never built and he never said where the money went, all right? Yeah, they all kind of came up at, when was that mark when all that sort of came at, we would Phil uncovered all that crazy lying that Andy had done. And then, you know, it's like... I think last summer, yeah. Yeah, but yeah, he was just like trying to make himself out to be the world's most interesting

man or whatever when it was, you know, just another milk toast dip shit. But it didn't seem to. hold him back too much. He also, he ended up in the sites of the FBI because he had lied on an FEC form about, like he'd said he'd given his campaign a $320,000 loan that turned out to be just for $20,000.

And I don't know what the goal of it was. I would make his campaign look more legit or to try to trick his campaign to paying him back $300,000 he hadn't loaned it. I don't know. So that's who Andy Ogles is. It's not surprising, man. I've noticed more and more here lately,

more and more criminals just keep gravitating toward MAGA. You know, once they saw Trump give the blanket pardoned, and style the J-6th insurrection, it's like everybody started popping their head up wanting a pardon. So it doesn't surprise me that liars and grifters like this would automatically be in MAGA. And yet you've got Joe Exotic still waiting. He's going to feel very betrayed.

You know, I think he thought he was near the top of Trump's list. You would think he would be. Yeah. Yeah, there is like a weird thing where he's more interested in pardoning, like Rob Blagojevich, who was a Democratic governor, convicted for corruption than he is like an actual like it's it did his allegiance is he's just objectively pro corruption if joe exotic had been involved in political corruption he'd be a free man right now um so as you brought as brando brought up a minute ago back in january uh ogles

proposed a bill that would all change the constitution to allow trump to clearly have the rights to a third term um my favorite part of that bill uh my favorite part of it's supposed to correct me if i'm wrong here but this how i understood it was that it has to be specifically an only a third like non-consecutive term or whatever like they built in a loophole or whatever to to where Barack Obama could not run again if they passed that bill whatever which is like again what possible rationale could you ever present to justify why that would be necessary and even to try to do this you know other than just you know locking Obama out and it's just I don't know but they don't care yeah it's also like it's going to be fun with

like an enterprising Democrat lawyer goes to court arguing that actually Trump's already had three terms because he really won in 2020. Joe Biden rigged it. So that wasn't the only bit of sucking up that Andy Ogles did. He also tried to file articles of impeachment against multiple judges who ruled against the new Trump administration. And then Elah, he put, Ogles posted a video of it. And Elon posted the edit of the video of Ogles talking about these impeachment efforts

a bunch of like a bunch of posters of the judges. And he said it to Mob Deeps shook ones part two. So, yeah, cool. The very gangster, Andy Ogles, yeah. Yeah. So then what happened next was the career prosecutors withdrew from the criminal investigation of Andy Ogles. So it's not clear what's happening with the case, but nobody's really working on it. So there's an open FBI investigation about him trying to steal $300,000 for whatever reason.

And nobody's working on it. So there you go. Yeah, which checks out. How do you, where do you rate Andy Ogles at in terms of Tennessee politicians right now, or politicians that are based in Tennessee? Oh, man. I know. I mean, if we're, if we're having, is this as the worst or?

Yes. In order of the worst, who would you put at the top? I think he's really given Tim Burchard to run for his money. And, and of course, Marsha Blackburn, we can't forget her. Of course, Marsa Blackburn, yes. We can't forget her. There's so many. Yeah, right.

Are you got any like local lunatic congresspeople? Oh, man, they're all over. And the thing is, you know, I've told people for a long time, I've said, you know, if you want to know what Project 2025 looks like, just, you know, look at Tennessee. And I kind of felt bad for saying that because it's my home, you know, and I felt bad for saying that about us. And then I went to the special sessions that Bill Lee put together and watched how they just came out and did their business.

It was so crazy. And I came back home and I was like, I don't feel bad for saying that anymore. I mean, it's really, it's really going to elaborate on what you mean by that. Are you talking about like censoring opposition and that sort of thing? Yes. Yes. While we were there for the special session, they pretty much came out and said that if they voted against, if Democrats voted against, Bill E's immigration plan and, you know, Trump's plan that they would, they would receive a felony for that.

And I just thought it was such a crazy thing to witness and see happen, you know. I mean, to be told you can't vote for, you can't vote against something. You know, to me, that's, I mean, how authoritarian can you get? So it was just really crazy to witness that and see firsthand. I think I saw it like the state legislature was trying to pass a bill that said of local municipal officials like tried to oppose any sort of deportations or didn't use the local police for deportations or roundup so they would like they could be on a hook for felony too.

Like it's like yeah, it's all very authoritarian. But I know what you're talking about like they saw like, you know, defunding public education for private vouchers and stuff. All that stuff's on the table. And actually like what you just said reminded me when I lived in Texas, I was waiting tables and I was giving a guy I work with a rat home and we were smoking weed

and it was right when George W. Bush was about to take office and he's like, took a deep pit and he's like, I can't believe they're trying to turn the whole

fucking country into Texas, man. It's depressing. Yeah. Yeah. But I wanted to talk to you. So ProPublica had this really fascinating story this week

about a group of conservatives, including a congressman, they seem to be all hanging out living together in D.C. And a house owned by a millionaire donor and one of the roommates is an evangelical pastor who will get to

pastor's name is Steve Berger. We know Mike Johnson lives there. ProPublic has staked out the mansions. They have videotape of Andy Ogles coming and going with a set of his own keys, but they don't know if he lives there or just like has hangout privileges and they asked him to water their plants

or something maybe. No clip. Yeah, this is, there was actually, no one's going to know what I'm talking about, so I don't know why I'm even bringing it up. But there was a show, Mark. You've seen every show ever made. John Goodman was in a show, and this was the premise of it.

It was like a group of, like, Republican senators or something who lived in a house together in D.C. And it was like an early streaming show starring John Goodman and somebody else. But anyway, I'm just saying, I guess this is, I didn't know they had these little frat house situations. But I guess that's a thing there. You know, I mean, it's quite, you know, you guys split the hookers and cocaine and all that. It's not like, look, if Congress people, often have roommates because again, they don't live in D.C., right?

Right. Some of them sleep in their offices, some of them yada, yada, yada. But, like, that's what makes the start because they're living in a six-bedroom, $3.7 million mansion. Right. It sort of tells you, like, how the right-wing, like,

Griff's sphere works, where you get on this welfare gravy train where you can never be poor again, whereas if you're an honest congressman, you probably live in like four bunk beds with three roommates. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, you'd have to.

I mean, D.C. is expensive. If you were just getting like what their salary is or whatnot, you'd probably have to, you know, you definitely wouldn't be in some big ass mansion. But yeah, it's like, you know, that's part of the whole, that's their whole deal. That's what they're in it for. Have you guys read about our new FBI director of Cash Patel's living situation? No, I haven't. All right.

So just a brief detour. They all get free fucking houses, man. Cash Patel lives in Las Vegas and a giant mansion owned by a guy by the name of Michael J. Dune, who's a GOP mega donor, who has made his money running scam time shares. When I say scam, he gets sued all the time. Okay. Kat, while the government's

ending work for home for people in the Department of Energy, cash is asked to be able to run the FBI from Las Vegas. Yeah, well, I mean, you know, Trump did that. What's kill me about this? Just the government. You know what I mean? Like Mar-a-Lago and all that. Like, they've kind of,

they've got precedent for not having to be where they're, you know, supposed to be and just doing whatever they want. It might be better the further away he is from the job, actually. Yeah, it's also like funny considering the origins of the FBI how they were basically formed if I organized

crime that goes across state borders, and then the mob formed Las Vegas, and now the FBI director just wants to live in Las Vegas where all the stuff the mob used to do was just legal now. Right, yeah. Oh, good. You guys ever think about that, that the mafia went out of business because corporations

just took over their rackets? Yeah, I mean, I have, you know, it's part, like, it's part of what I've always thought about, you know, if we, like, legalize drugs or whatever and just let, like, let Walmart take care of the cartels, you know. I mean, that's what we did. It's Pfizer now. So, so going back to the frat house, the flop house, I'm going to call it five beta blue eye Jesus frat house. Oh, yeah, and Matt found out of the Alpha House. found that show. It's called Alpha House.

It was an early Amazon original. Not familiar at all. I've never heard of that one. So, again, the pastor's name is Steve Berger. And he basically, it lives in D.C. because he runs like an evangelical lobbying organization trying to influence Congress, but he doesn't leave a paper trail. And basically because the people he's lobbying are his fucking roommates.

You don't have to follow lobbying disclosures for shit you say to your roommates during pizza and movie night, right? Oh, okay. Right? So, yeah. As for who Steve Berger is, ProPublica unearthed some podcast footage that wasn't released that he recorded in 2022. Let me quote here from Steve Berger. If I was left to myself, I take a baseball bat and beat the hell out of every single one of them and not feel bad about it. I have to go, you know what? Probably not the will of God, is it? And obviously, it's not. He's talking about gay people. Jesus Christ But he's like So he knows God loves gay people But he wants to beat them anyway

But he thinks God's wrong But he's just listening Right yeah Well sometimes So Brando As our We have going to be a Tennessee expert

Are you familiar with a Republican donor Who lives in Tennessee By the name of Lee Beeman No I don't think I am Okay Well he made his money Owning a large car dealership chain And he's the guy that owns this

Six bedroom a $3.7 million home. So when Andy Ogles announced his short-lived Senate bed in 2017, Beeman said he planned to raise $4 million to support Ogles. And then he was Ogles' campaign treasure and his finally successful 2020 run for the house. So I don't even want to make you guys guess. This scandal is unguessable.

So in 2018, he was going through a bad divorce. I think is fourth wife, Beeman. These are religious conservatives. I love to have four wives. It's amazing to me. So in the divorce proceedings, and with the caveat that people say all kinds of crazy shit in divorce proceedings

because they're very angry and they're fighting for leverage over money. All right. She was asking for a lot of money in a divorce case. She alleged that Lee made her watch videos of hiv-hemming sex with a prostitute, what do you call training videos? A prostitute.

and he said that Lee was so addicted to pornography that he would watch it on his iPad while sitting in the same room as his family, including his minor son. Damn. Yeah, well, you know, what would Jesus do, Mark? Nothing surprises me with these people anymore. I'm not surprised. I read stuff and I hear things and I hope they're satire and I go looking to see if it is and then it isn't.

And that's one of the most depressing parts about all this to me, you know. Right. And you want to be like, well, you know, is it a day? addicted to pornography, like, you can be like maybe, maybe his religious faith is like, you know, sincere and he just hasn't gotten over his addictions yet. He's a sex addict, yada, yada, yada. I still think showing the videos to your wife would be like, this is how you should do it is bad. But you don't be like, okay, well, maybe his religious convictions are sincere. Let me quote this from you.

Among his frequent donations to both local and national conservatives, Beeman made a maximum contribution to Roy Moore's U.S. Senate campaign. three days in a post reported that the former Alabama judge in sexual relationships with teenagers while in his 30s. Three days after. Yeah. This guy was a pedophile. I was like, I got to give him more money.

Right. I thought I couldn't be a bigger fan of this guy. I found out all that stuff. Yeah. So this is about to current events. So after the state of the state of the state of the state. the union last weekend um there's a big uh movement to try to like you know figure out how to punish al green a few other democrats who actually did anything um like you know bright signs that

wear matching outfits and walk out um uh uh god uh so andy oh i actually can we deferred on to that a little bit because i'm not sure that we talked about that on the show did we and i'd also like to what brando thinks like what do you where each y'all add on that whole thing because like so they and made the signs and as I understand it they're supposed to be like an agreed upon we're all going to this is what we're going to do we're going to sit here somberly and we've got these signs and that's it's a plan

and he got pissed off and was screaming you know like rightfully so gets kicked out and then so some of them get mad at him and it's like they're still they're divided over that too and it's like what the approach should be and what their plan was and because they agreed to sit there quietly

they sat there quietly while a 13 year old kid with cancer was honored and all this shit has happened and so just i mean brando what do you think about that about the democrats that night man i don't know i just don't understand how you can really have decorum when it comes to don't trump it's uh i mean everything that he's doing i just feel like that we should be opposing at every turn i don't i don't see the i mean i hate to say this but i don't really see the reaching across the aisle and and trying to to work with the guy i mean he calls people like us the enemy from within i mean i really i felt personally that every democrat should have

just got up and walked out with Al Green. That was my my thoughts on it. Right. I mean, I thought the same thing. Like, I don't understand like, like, make the whole thing take five hours. Like, like, this isn't like normal political disagreement stuff. He's dis-examining the federal government to be able to hand money to Elon because Tesla stocks cratering.

And, like, it's not like, none of this is principled or anything anyone voted for. And so Al Green stood up and screamed, you have no mandate to cut Medicaid and shook his cane, which Lauren Bober racistly called a pimp cane. And then, like, they should have been one by one. everybody's standing up and yelling and then getting escorted out and until all 200 of them or 180 them or how many of them attended were escorted out and make the whole thing last to 1 a.m. Make it clear that what's going on is not fucking normal to the people that are barely paying attention because you can't.

It's hard to explain to people like the dismailing USA. It's like just the PEPFAR program is going to have these a year. Elon's committing a genocide. Yeah. No, it's like it's like. No one elected him anything. It's bad enough when our government doesn't like your genocide. A fucking car manufacturer is doing a genocide.

And like, yeah, so also like the 10 Democrats, there's only 10 of them that voted a law of Republicans to censure Al Green. Fuck off. Like trying to appeal to some hypothetical voter who will congratulate you for scolding a member of your own party for protesting fascism is a ridiculous losing game. And I can't believe these people are so fucking soft brain. They think any of this matters like that. I think it also plays right into Trump's hand because he can say these people sit and called me a threat to democracy all this time and then they, you know, turned on one of their own. I just feel like that the whole thing plays into that. So many people have lost faith in the Democratic Party and say what you will about Trump.

I mean, we know he's lying. We know he's full of shit, but he says it with all the confidence in the world. And a lot of times that gets interpreted as, well, you know, he don't care to shoot from the hip and tell it like it is. And it's bullshit. But that's how people interpret it. So when you just set back like Democrats have been doing and trying to have this decorum and just you come off looking weak, even if, even if you are technically right about something, you still come off looking weaker.

And that's, that's something I feel like we have to figure out a way around and get over. Right. And it's like, it's like the 25% of them, their abject fucking cowards are tarring the rest of them with their stain. Like just resign and go home or switch parties. Just make it clear. Because, like, I don't understand anything you're doing. so let me quote here from the story about their plan they're trying to kick democrats off there all democrats who voiced even they're trying to kick even the ones the thing about centering out

green is there ogles and the rest are trying to kick even the ones who held up signs off their committees so like the fake game you're playing doesn't like the hair splitting you're doing doesn't like matter to anyone so as johnson read out the resolution censuring green dozens of house democrats primarily black caucus members of progressives stood in the well of the house singing we shall overcome. Johnson banged the gavel and said the House will come to order before putting the house in recess until the disruption is excited. Today, a group of House Democrats broke

the quorum during the century of Representative Al Green and after multiple warnings refused to heed Johnson's order, Andy Ogle said to post on X. Ogle said he was drafting privileged resolutions, which any member can force to a vote, not for a protest under the state of the union, but for singing we shall overcome in the well of a house. Yeah.

It's like, not so fast. Are you sure about that? You sure you're going to overcome? Right. So we were joking at the beginning of the show that the UN, the United States was the only country to vote against like a non-binding resolution calling for an international day of hope. We voted against hope. And now somebody's saying we shall overcome and we have to pass a right or binding resolution saying, no, you shan't. You shan't overcome.

It will be no overcoming in any point in the near future while this administration's in charge. Brando, have you been, like, I don't know, just how apocalyptic are you feeling right now with all this stuff? Like, speaking of hope, you maintain some or? I try. I definitely try to, but I've just never seen our country. I didn't realize how fragile the whole system was. I didn't realize how quickly it could all be torn down. I thought, like, where we're at right now, I thought we might be there, I don't know, three and a half years into his second term.

I didn't think it would be less than two months. You know, it just, it's so crazy to me how the walls came tumbling down so fast, and that's why it is hard to have hope. I try to, I try to just tell people on my channel all the time to, you know, take care of your mental health, unplug if you need to, walk away from it, you know, come back and catch up later because it's just, it's hard to fill hope right now because everything is just happening so fast, and it's really hard. Also, covering this stuff every day, it's, you know, sometimes I'll try to set a few videos

to come out the next day so I can give myself a day off, but then the story is, changed so drastically that I realized that video I set to come out now is old news so it's just a constant battle trying to stay on top of it all and and have any hope you know yeah I'll talk about how fragile anything else I did like I was listen to listen to a interview with like a guy used to work in contracts law for the federal government and he was talking about how like so the federal government's the only contracting party that um has an escape clause where they can cancel basically every contract at will right and nobody else in the world has that.

So, but no one ever, never, no one thought it was possible. So like, like, it's like, oh,

well, turns out we fucked up. Yeah. Well, that's like, there's a lot of things like that, aren't there where it's like, uh,

it was just never conceived of that, uh, an attempt would be, there was like certain assumptions made about what a person holding the office of president would, would not do, you know, I feel like it kind of baked into,

the constitution and laws and stuff. And it's like, you know, it wasn't, you know, something like Trump wasn't anticipated until. Yeah. And one thing I, one thing I hear so many people say is like, oh, man, I don't think he'd do that. He wouldn't do that. That's what people said to me leading up to the election so many times. Like, I wouldn't, I wouldn't worry about that. He wouldn't do that.

There's checks and balances in place. And I was like, they just gave this guy immunity. I mean, that's word you hear in, you know, Godfather movies. It's not something that's supposed to be the president. Here's this guy's like, I need immunity to do my job. There's no other profession where you could just walk in and like, hey, I don't need that handbook. I'm just going to have to play by my own set of rules. It's just, I don't know, man. It's a crazy time to be alive. Yeah, I don't get the whole, like, the idea, like, I don't

think he'd really do that. And it's like, do what the thing that he said he would do as soon as he could do it, like the thing, you know, the thing. Like, so many things, it's like he just campaigned on or whatever. Some people, like, people would try to, all the same washing or whatever. It was like, there's this assumption of, like, I don't think, I don't think he really means that or whatever. Yeah, I grew up over in, I grew up over in Bell County, Kentucky, and CNN recently did a piece on them where they were talking about, you know, Trump wanting to do away with the Department of Education. And the, like, superintendent of the school that I went to and the principal and everything now, he wasn't when I was there, but the new one now

was talking about how that that's not what he voted for. He's like, I didn't vote for him to do this. And I'm sort of thinking, well, yeah, you kind of did. I mean, that's what he was saying he was going to do. And they were like, we didn't really think he would do that. We weren't voting for that. We were just voting to keep America great or make America great again. It's like man, like he told you he was going to do it. So what do you where are you add on that whole

kind of dynamic of like the people who did vote for him, you know, the sort of the kind of fuck around find out mentality or they're like the pointing and laughing of like you know, rubbing their noses in it type approach where it's like

this is what you voted for. I hope you're fucking happy type thing versus you know trying to uh i don't know um yeah it's i don't know i don't know i think it's not be like that yeah i just it's it's hard for me because like i do want to go back and point to hey he told you he was going to do this why are you surprised you know i don't it's not i don't really i don't really enjoy the i don't really get much enjoyment out of rubbing their nose in it because i realize it hurts a lot innocent people you know what i mean it's like there was a whole lot of people sitting here yeah they all there's a lot of people sitting back on the fence and and you know i think a lot of people and

my part of the world, they probably, I'd say a good chunk of them probably didn't vote and they probably didn't even really pay it. Or if they did, they didn't pay attention until the last couple of months. You know, they were doing their thing and just came in at the end and like, well, the grocery bill was cheaper when Trump was here the first time, so I'll try it again. I don't, I don't think a lot of people, there's a lot of innocent people, I think, that just ignorantly, well, people like us contains politics all the time, but I think a lot of people just sort of ignorantly went along with it, you know, without even really knowing what they were doing. Yeah, well, I think also a lot of those people have gotten, like you said,

They remember, it's like, oh, I feel like I remember groceries being cheaper when Trump was president, so that's good. And also I've heard about all this, like, uh, transgender pedophile ring, you know, drug addicted, heavily armed immigrant invasion stuff or whatever, just like get ideas, the things that they think the Democrats are for, which of course sound insane when you just put them in a, you know, you frame it the way that propagandists do, but people just overhear that. And they're like, damn, they're trying to do that. Well, I don't think we should do that. And I like cheap groceries or whatever. And then that's just as far as it goes. I really think, too, that around here, religion really plays a big role in it. I think, you know, so many people says things like, well, my granddaddy would roll over in his grave if you knew I was voting for a Republican.

I mean, they're just brought up. I mean, the churches that I grew up in now, those ministers are full-blown MAGA, and they preach it from the pulpit every Sunday. And so I just think a lot of people just roll with it. And like you said, they hear these, they hear these stories put in, and they hear their stories. framed in a way like you said that it makes them think man that's that's crazy the way that the way that maga and donald trump frames it you know so i really think a lot of that plays into it a whole lot the religious side of it and like the the guilt tripping that well if i vote for a democrat i'm voting for the devil you know um so let's have a little fun before we close up

you all right uh so i got another tennessee related story for you guys um this is about the very specific victims of the trade war um Tennessee uh iconic company but he had Jack Daniels. Yep. So, Canada's targeting, they're trying to target their tariffs towards a red state product, which means bourbons and Tennessee whiskeys and stuff. So Canada didn't just slap tariffs on American booze. They pulled all American booze off their shelves, which made Jack Daniels see whites.

Why can't find his name? God damn it. Yeah, he called, he can't find his name right now, but he called, he called the Canada's reaction disproportionate. talking about being invaded and conquered. He's like, hey, you took our booze off the shelf. That's disproportionate. He's got a loss of whiting, I think.

But Lawson did say that Canada only costs for 1% of the company's total sales so they can withstand the losses. He's actually sell way more in Mexico, which is 7% of the company's sales. The company's name's Brown Foreman. But Jack Daniel's real problem, this is what hit for me. This made me think that maybe it was Jack Daniels lobbying for Trump to vote against the International Day of Hope, okay? because the real problem has been a huge downturn in booze sales after a peak from 20 to 22.

So they've already had to lay off 700 people and close like some sort of plant. And Brown foreman first sounded the alarm in 2023 when it reported whiskey sales are falling. So everyone was super miserable from 20 to 22 and took up drinking heavily. brown former thought the bad times would never end and we're partying about it i just i just can't publicly complaining because people company to take yeah they right i'd say that's another kind of related to what i was asking earlier about like dunking on people and stuff because i saw on reddit it got shared near the top of redid where jack daniels laid off all those people and there's a lot of people in the comments being like you know yeah you're happy now lynchberg

Lynch Bird voted 83% for Trump and look what happened. This is, you know, center of the town's economy and, you know, look what you did type of thing. But then there were other people in there pointing out that there's more context to it than that. Like you said, it's there people just are drinking less now. Younger people especially are not drinking as much. So it's like not as directly related as it seems like. But they are definitely, they're holding that line up there north of the border with, I've seen a bunch of other posts of like pallets and pallets of like Florida strawberries that

They're basically trying to give away that people won't, you know, just won't fucking touch them. So they're really, you know, like I said, they really rallied the troops around this shit. And what's really weird, man, is like being in a place where, like, now, like, when I see Canada doing these things, I'm kind of like rooting them on, like, to get back in front. And then I realize it's hurting us. It's like, it's just one of those weird places to be in in history where you're, for the first time. It's like, you know, you know what I mean? We talked about the, shutting off the electricity or whatever, which they're, they're, they're, they're, they're, Ontario is making noise about doing,

which they sell electricity to Michigan, upstate New York, and Minnesota, something like that. And, like, I'm like, I want them to do that not to hurt us or to hurt themselves, but to get it over with as quick as possible. Do you know what I'm saying? Like, all this stuff is like,

like, there was like, like Trump was making fun of some CEO's days. Like, there's a story, like a bunch of business leaders have asked for clarity from the Trump administration because of instability, all his terror stuff. And he was like, basically like, all this, all these, They always say they want clarity.

They want clarity. It's like, yeah, man. They want to know what things are going to cost two days from now. I don't think that's fucking insane. So, like, yeah, rooting for Canada to fuck us up real bad, real quick, with just economic stuff. So everything's going, so Trump declares victory and relents or whatever is going to happen. That's the way I put it. Earlier, Brando, right before you got it, we were talking about the whole, they frame it as a drug war.

They're saying it's like it's to punish Canada for fentany. which, of course, is completely absurd. Yeah. But it's like, but why are they doing it? Isn't an actual attempt at annexation? Because that's equally absurd in my opinion. We're not, that's not going to fucking happen. Editorial from like 1993 or whatever,

where he made the case for annexing Canada and Greenland for American Economic Mike. Trump read that 30 years ago and hadn't forgot about it. That's what it is. Insane. It is insane. Yeah. All right. Well, Brando, like I said, remind everybody, if you want to tell everybody, again, how to find you.

If you got anything else you want to plug and you think needs to be said or whatever, you think you just want to get out there. No, I really appreciate it. Yeah, thank you so much for having me on. That's great to finally get to meet you and talk with you. And I'm on YouTube under Tennessee Brando, Facebook, Tennessee Brando, Instagram and TikTok, it's TN underscore Brando. So you can't find me anywhere on social media. I just do this every day now. I just wake up and make videos and try to make sense.

at all. There's no script or anything. I'm just sitting there, you know, just talking, and trying to figure it out and thinking out loud. And so I appreciate everyone that's subscribed. And I always been a big fan of your work, man. I got to see you a couple of years ago at the Biju when you, well, maybe it was last year when you came out, you and Corey and Drew and you performed in drag. Yeah. That was a great. That was a great show. Damn, that will have been, I think, two years ago. Yeah, I get completely lost with the years, man. All time is. Time always been just a construct, of course. but ever since

it's like COVID just broke so many things and time is one of them. It's like everything both feels like yesterday and a fucking decade ago at the same time. And it's like you said, Trump, the havoc he's reeked already in his second term. It feels like, God,

we're almost done with this, right? And it's been like six weeks or whatever. Like it's just, it's a hell of the time. If I could ask a question, I mean, the one thing that I sit and wonder is like, Is this, can this last? I mean, can we make it four years this way? That's, that's, that's something I ask myself every day, is how in the world does this make it four years?

I don't know. I mean, I think, like Mark said, maybe part of the hope is that it's like, if they derail the train, like, hard enough and fast enough, then maybe there will be some kind of actual course correction that happens along the way, but I don't know. That would require the Republicans to wake up, you know, and the real, the real, uh, the real, event happening is because is what happens when there's a month where social security checks don't go out because they fired so many people i don't know i guess well i'll see we'll be uh there's documenting it alongside each other but thank you guys for listening again real quick go to tray crowder dot com.
