Tim Miller
Hey everybody. Tim Miller from the Bulwark here. It was a big night in THE Situation Room as President Trump and his national security team got together to decide what to do about the Iran, Israel war. And simultaneously, the vice president of the United States was trolling trans people on Blue sky and Twitter. Not exactly locked in on the potential for regime change, war in the Middle East. From our vice president, I want to go through the timeline with you. So here we go. We go over to Blue Sky. And longtime viewers of the channel know I've got mixed feelings about Blue Sky. It is everybody, most everybody has good intentions there, but every time I go there, I'm getting yelled at somebody by somebody for using the wrong word and that, that wears on a person. So anyway, JD Got to experience that. And in much more harsher and deserved terms than I did, he pops into Blue sky to write this. This is at, let's see. Let's get the time here right. This is pretty important to get the time right. This is 4:50 Eastern here. It's hello, Blue Sky. I've been told this app has become the place to go for common sense political discussion and analysis. So I'm thrilled to be here to engage with all of you. I mean, you can just feel the smarminess through the keys. He then links to the Supreme Court ruling today, which essentially held that red states could ban transgender medical procedures for minors. We'll be talking about this, you know, over the next little bit with other, with lawyers and such, but that's like the short summary of the, of the case. And, and then he goes on to talk about, he does a little thread on his first skeet. He talks about how he liked Clarence, Clarence Thomas's opinion on this that insulted experts. And then he goes on to say that he thinks that the doctors and scientists that are working on trans youth health care are getting resources from big Pharma. So there you go. That's 450. And let me tell you, it's, I mean, it's childish and like, whatever for the vice president, United States. Vice President, United States. The last time I did a, I did a monologue about JD he was over in the Vatican talking to Ross Douthat about how it's wants to bring the country together. And now he thinks that immigration is tearing at the country's fabric. So there you go. Somebody who wants to bring the country together is doing so by going on a platform that has a lot of progressive folks and mocking them over a judicial ruling about trans kids. So what a uniter. We've got in our vice president, not only do we have not someone interested in uniting or in, you know, bringing people together or bridging differences, we've got somebody who doesn't seem to be that focused on, you know, the big issues of his job. At 4:50 he sends that skeet. And then they had a Situation room meeting about the Iran Israel war about 5 o' clock. So just a few minutes later. So he's kind of just typing it out on the. I got to pop out a quick blue sky here on my way to the Iran war meeting. Gets into the Iran war meeting. We don't know there's not been a decision. Trump seems indecisive. Trump's going back and forth between his hawkish Rubio advisors and, and you know, his Russian puppets and Tulsi and you know, JD is trying to play both sides. He's kind of on Tulsi side and you know, it's sort of like an inverse. I'm stealing this from somebody online so I'm sorry for not crediting you. It's, it's sort of like an inverse Dick Cheney. You know, back during Iraq, Dick Cheney was, you know, really pushing things, you know, really driving things a certain direction. JD is mostly focused on trolling people on the Internet. You know, the death and destruction in the Middle east, the uncertainty, the, you know, the fact that our troops are endangered are potentially at higher risk or in more danger. Now the one stationed over there, implications for the economy here for everybody. This, this kind of really weighty issue as I mentioned yesterday, I struggle with, it's a tough weighty issue on what to do. And JD is in the room where it happens, as they say in the situation room. He's thinking about, he's thinking about his blue sky. He's thinking about whether he's triggered some lives today. He's thinking about whether any of, there's any, any liberal tears among childless cat ladies on blue sky. That's what really gets him going. You know, not like governing, not trying to get the best intel possible on the situation inside Iran. Do you think JD could have named how many people lived in Iran before the Tucker interview yesterday? I'm going to say no. I'm going to say no. I think that's a pretty safe bet. Anyway, meeting ends, then what happened? You might wonder what J.D. might do. He might meet with his national security advisors privately, might have some follow up meetings. I don't know. Stakeholders. Nope. Pops onto Twitter to let people know he, this is now 6:01. So situation room meeting was about an hour he's out of there. Bam. First thing he's doing, tweeting. Just set up my page on Blue Sky. Hope to see you guys there, exclamation point. This is an unserious person. This is a deeply, deeply unserious, petty, smarmy person. And the more I see his face, the less I like him. I just have to say, you think, you think you reach a place with somebody that like really, you find really so unappealing in every possible manner and like, you can't, it's hard to come up with a nice thing to say about them. And so you think that you get to a place where it's like, don't know if I can hate this person any more than I do right now. And yet JD has kind of the superpower that every time I see him I just like a little bit I dislike him a little more. Anyway, maybe that's a me thing. What else do I want to bring up? I should mention this isn't the only social media war he's engaged in with regards to the real war. How much focus he's giving to the real war seems to be a question mark. The social media war about the war locked in, I mean, dude is like laser eyes on, on the fucking Twitter, you know, he is, he's dialed in, he's cooking, he is making sure that he's going to win the war. About the war on social media. A couple of things he's been doing. For example, this guy, David Reboy, I don't know if you know Dave Reeboy, he's like five foot one and, and juiced out. Right wing social media guy. He posted something about how JD's team is leaking to POLITICO or something. And JD quote tweets this random guy, like, is he that, like he's got 197,000 followers? I mean not nothing, but I bet you have never heard of David Reeboy. Vice presidents randomly quote tweets him just like powder this loser who supported DeSantis, what is now attacking my team. Like, what is this guy doing? He also, he also got into a fight with Cassandra McDonald and that was over pushing back on this conversation around how Tulsi had, had testified about seven, eight weeks ago now that Iran was not really close to enriching a nuclear weapon and, and how that is in conflict with the, the stated policy of the administration right now. And JD replies to her test. Tulsi's testimony was in March. A lot has changed since then. Really a lot has changed. Since March. And I'm not a nuclear scientist, but like, to me it seems like Iran's been kind of on the brink of a nuke for 18 years now. And like, just the last eight weeks where things really flip, they really flipped a switch. Possible. I find that a little bit hard to believe, but JD wants to make sure he's winning that war, so he's out there. Anyway, I just figured I'd pop this out for you guys at night in case, you know, you are. You're worried. You're worried about a potential escalation in the Middle east, what that might mean for you or your family. And I just want to make sure that you can go to sleep tonight, put your head on that pillow and feel comfortable that the Vice President is on this. Okay? The Vice President, no matter what happens, he will be tweeting through it. He will be tweeting through it and now he'll be skating through it on Blue sky. And he'll make sure that random people on the Internet get put in their place and get dunked on in the smarmiest way possible. Because that is what the Vice President of the United States cares about. We'll see you back here soon. Subscribe to the feed.
