Foreign Murdoch's Daily Mail decided they wanted to run a little story. Put up the first clip on Luigi Mangione and they did a play. Put up the next slide. Daily Mail reporting Luigi Mangione, sex tape bomb bombshell. A CEO assassin suspect filmed at least 20 cinema style porn videos. He wanted to be watched and go to the previous clip. And basically when they did this, the rumors of this potential sex tape is driving the Internet crazy. And so go to the next clip. Puff the magic hater. She posts. The Daily Mail is a tabloid and its headline should never be taken at face value. Which is why I'm fully prepared to fact check the Luigi sex tape situation if someone will just point me in the right direction and then the next one. Imagine thinking this will turn public opinion against him. I mean really imagine it. So I bring up all of this not only as a respite from all of the Trump Putin Musk fuckery, but I bring this up because this story to me is really, really important right now. And what's so important about it is the public response to it. And in my other job as an interior designer, I did the office of a former federal judge who now is a big, big, big litigator. He sues insurance companies, he sues pharmaceutical companies to took on the opioid epidemic. And when he interviews for jurors in rural Oklahoma, he will ask them, how many here have been screwed over by an insurance company? They'll raise their hand, how many of you have been screwed over by a corporation? And it's something that rural Americans have all experienced. And you have the Democratic Party right now trying to figure out how do we connect with rural voters. How you connect with rural voters is the reason that Luigi Mangione has gone so viral. And it is because the dick over that happens from corporate America to every single American is ubiquitous. It's experienced in rural towns, it's experienced in big cities, blue cities, purple cities, red cities. And it is the way forward Democrats a economic message that corporations are grifting off of us. And then the headlines just start writing themselves as Elon Musk rewards himself billions and billions of dollar contracts after he's already received so many subsidies and is firing hard working Americans well.

And you can add to that that the tax plan presented by the Republicans adding $4 trillion to the deficit so that 10 million people making $10 million more and billionaires and big corporations don't pay taxes. So they want to sit there and say we want to take away your Medicaid. We want to take Away your Medicare, we want to take away your Social Security so our big corporations and billionaires don't have to pay taxes. Like you said, this writes itself.

The reason so many, and there are millions and millions and millions of Luigi Mangioni supporters after this sex tape thing came out, they put up a GoFundMe to pay for his legal fees. And as of like 36 hours ago, it already had $750,000. Wow. In it. And the reason that you, he has millions of supporters and think about this, he shot somebody in cold blood on the streets of Manhattan. Face value. That sounds terrible. It's. And it is terrible, it's horrible. But when you find out the person that he shot used artificial intelligence to determine if somebody should live or not, when this person is a hard working American that paid their health insurance every single month and it was supposed to be there for them when they got sick and it wasn't, it wasn't there for them. And they've watched their family members die, they've watched their friends died, or they themselves have been sitting there dying trying to navigate this health insurance industry. And one of the more powerful things, I think when Obama ran in 08, I remember him talking about his mother, and this is before Obamacare, obviously he was talking about his mother and she died of cancer, sitting, getting chemo with stacks of papers and bills, trying to navigate her insurance plan so that she could get health care. And that was something that every American has experienced. And Americans, you need to know that we have a lot of international listeners. This is something they cannot understand. The moral shortcoming of the American government and the American people to provide health care, basic health care for its citizens. And I want to remind everybody we are the most religious, first world country. So you would think with all this Jesus stuff going on that we would have tip top health care free for everybody because that's what Jesus would want. But instead we have a guy who has become Internet and famous who everybody thinks is a hero because he took on a man that played do you live or do you die with the American public and he did it for money. And that is inherently evil. Now Democrats, I'm not saying y'all come out and say, oh, we're all for Luigi, blah blah, blah. I understand that we have to be the party of law and order, especially juxtaposing what is happening with the Trump administration. But my question to you Democrats is this. And my larger question to the American public, public is this. Why isn't what this life, this health insurance CEO? Why isn't what he did criminal? Why is that not criminal? Now you can sue them and all of these things, but Republicans will make sure they're protected. But why is it not criminal for insurance companies to do what they've done? And that's what the Democrats need to hop on. But then I start to think, well, they're beholden by corporations as well and therein lies the problem. And this is what Bernie has been saying, this is what AOC has been saying. And the Democrats have got to hop on this message because this is the only direct way to save America. Because this is what every American has experienced and this, they are experiencing this even more now because we have a taxpayer funded billionaire named Elon Musk that this country's taxpayers made and he is firing everyday Americans that happen to be born in this country and they're getting fired. They're losing their health insurance, they're losing their pensions. And I want you to put, I want to put up these and I want to read these to you in pumps. Here is an American I worked hard my entire life. Now I'm 70 and broke. Something has to change in this country. Next slide. I watch every penny as I walk the tightrope between income and bills. The margin for error is frighteningly thin. It's rough living life in mortal fear of the check engine light. Forgive me if I have a hard time when I see tech giants sitting down for interviews wearing nine hundred thousand dollar watches or hear billionaire broligarchs extolling the virtue of belt tightening Sacrifice. Read the rooms dude. Millions of hard working Americans are barely scraping by and cutting snap, Medicaid or Social Security certainly won't help. And Democrats, here's another message. The right always says oh the liberals are virtue signaling. Well you know what the right does is they do this belt tightening signaling because they're going to be fiscal conservatives. But yet we also love Jesus, you if you're poor and you if you're sick. The Democrats need to grow up here and take some you politics straight to the corporations, donations be damned. Because this is a, this is the way to get these red counties. This is the way because they have all been dicked over by corporations. It is a part of the American experience.

Interestingly enough you have this whole outcry. You don't hear from politicians. We are going to take on the reason the American people feel slighted and undermined. We are going to allow the health care industry, industry and oligarchy in general to continue because the wealth gap is, what is it like 7% of all the money in America is with 7% of the people. And that's the oligarchy. And they're the ones making the decision. Elon Musk is making the decision. Where is the outrage that we have got to get these corporations paying their fair shares? We've got to stop with the subsidies. I haven't heard it and I sure would love to, because I agree with you. Everybody has been over by their insurance company, auto insurance, whatever the case may be. The corporations have one service to enrich the stockholders, not really to provide service for the people paying the bills.

I mean, everybody's been over by the pharmaceutical company. The whole reason that we even have a fentanyl crisis is because of the Sackler family and because of gaming the system to get OxyContin approved by the FDA. And they paid for that. And they did it because money talks. Because in Donald Trump's America, in Jesus's America, people always, always value money over human beings. And nobody has been dicked over as much as rural Americans And Democrats have got to take this message. Don't try to go put on cowboy boots and go to a gum gun show and be somebody that you're not. Go speak to them about this. Go sit down and speak to them about these egregious power grabs and money grabs. And there now any sort of protection that these people had to make sure their water was clean, that waste isn't being run off, and there's cancer clusters that pop, pop up. All of that's been removed. And also all the reporting on that has been removed. We are in a very, very dangerous place. And the Democrats trying to play being somebody they're not is not the forward we have to be, have conviction in our beliefs. And this, to me, is the way forward. There is a reason that this guy who shot somebody in cold blood is so wildly popular in the United States of America. And that's because everybody understands what the person that he, the person that he killed, everybody understands what he did because we've all fallen prey to insurance. Everybody has. And it is an immoral, egregious shortcoming of this country. So I hope the Democrats, a few listen here, but I'm telling you guys, we are in Oklahoma. This happens across every single state. Okay, stick with us, please subscribe and we'll see you all later.
