Okay. Among the MAGA women, there seems to be a little jealousy a brewing. As you know, Kristi Noem, every single day, I think she wakes up and says, what am I going to be today? Am I going to be a federal marshal? Am I going to be an ice agent? Am I going to be a local sheriff? Am I going to be a scuba diver? If I am I going to be an astronaut? And that's like her big decision each day is she goes to her costume closet. Well, Nancy Mace clearly is getting incredibly jealous. And Ron Filipkowski on Twitter found this. And I thought this was just hilarious. Pop this up. So Nancy Mace, dressed up as an ice officer says, dear dhs, we've got a swamp and a dream. Let's talk. South Carolina's gators are ready and they're not big on paperwork. If I was governor, we'd be bringing alligator Alcatraz to South Carolina. And then she posts a selfie in her car, all glammed out and you can see like a bulletproof ice vest on her. And I would just want to remind you guys, this is a sitting house of Representatives, elected member of Congress. And this insanity is just breathtaking. If I saw this going on in like some banana republic, I'd be like, boy, they're really fucked up, aren't they? This is just a Tuesday in the United States of America or Wednesday in the United States of America.

I look at Nancy Mace and I think, you are talking about human beings. This whole alligator Alcatraz, they are talking about the death of human beings with big, huge smiles on their face. And she, Nancy Mace, I don't know if she took the day off from inspecting people's genitals at the Capitol, but she is a depraved individual. I cannot stand her.

I think she has, I mean, clear mental, obviously, I Mean, clearly mental disorder. I mean, I don't think there's any question, I'm no psychiatrist, but I mean, just the way she speaks, the flight of ideas, this kind of stuff. I mean, I think what we're dealing with with Trump and then the administration is it's, it's a party of untreated people, really broken people that are now just dragging everybody down with them. All right, next up, Murkowski, Lisa Murkowski, she voted. It seems like she and Susan Collins made a blood deal, like, okay, look, one of us is going to have to vote yes so that JD Vance can come in and have the deciding vote. And Lisa took that bullet so that Susan Collins and her blue state could provide cover for herself. And I want to remind you guys that so many, not so many, every single one of the MAGA politicians, when you look at interviews of theirs and you look at their on the record statements about who they are as a person, they always mention their faith. And I want to remind our American listeners that like in Europe and other democracies, it's off putting when people mention their faith because they very much value secular government as a cornerstone of a healthy democracy. But in the United States, we got the crazy Christians and they always have to broadcast about their crazy Christianity. And when it comes to MAGA white Christians, the cornerstone of their brand is cruelty. They celebrated yesterday when they removed food from the poorest of the poor and when they removed health care from 17 million Americans. And here's the problem. Medicaid in the state of Oklahoma is called Sooner Care. So so many people, they hear this Medicaid thing and they think it doesn't even affect them. And they're going to go try to get routine checkups or worse, they're going to have a lump or some horrible, a bad cough and they're going to go and try to get health care and they're not going to be able to receive it because of MAGA Christians. And they are at fault at this because they have weaponized their religion to get these triple Trumpers on board. And they have broadcast and indoctrinated cruelty into the American electorate. And here is what it looks like when somebody calls you out on selling your soul. Here's Murkowski right after she voted for the cruelest, most insane bill. And I want to remind you, it adds 3 to $4 trillion to the national deficit. Play the clip. Senator Paul said that this was, that your vote was a bailout for Alaska at the expense of the rest of the country.

Oh, my.

That's what Senator Paul said. I didn't say it, ma' am. I'm just asking for your response. My response, okay. Her response is she goes on and on about how she has to fight for Alaskans. But I think what's so telling in this is she was speechless.
- [05:49]
Political Commentator 2
Yes.

4, 10 seconds. She couldn't even defend it. She looked so defeated, so sold out. Like, I think this is like the early days of Marco Rubio. Remember the first couple of days that he was in Trump 2.0, he kind of had that deer in the headlights look. And this is something that happens to MAGA people. Like, at first, there's a little bit of moment of clarity, and, like, this is wrong. This feels wrong. But then once they do it, once they cross over this barrier and they become worse, people in the MAGA movement become worse human beings than they were to begin with. And typically, to begin with, we're talking about deeply moral, flawed people that do not have an ounce of empathy for anybody outside their inner circle. I completely agree.

Political Commentator 2
Lisa Murkowski, she's the biggest fraud of them all because she knows it's wrong. And the minute she votes, she's like, well, I hope they change it in the House. You voted for it. You own it, you own it. Signed, sealed, delivered, it's yours. And I look at this, and I, too, am appalled at the cuts to poor people and Medicaid, but also something more insidious. This bill combines power and consolidates it in the executive branch. It deliberately undermines the power of the judiciary. And you look at Project 2025, and you look at the. The terms of this bill that we're not talking about, because they're not as outrageous on their face. And this is Project 2025. This is everything they wanted.
- [07:26]
Political Commentator 1
And I want to point out that also the Supreme Court, every chance they get, undermines the power of the judiciary. Every single chance they get, they always vote for Trump. And any notion that the Handmaid was going to be the savior of democracy has been proven. And it just goes to show you, liberals, you cannot have fair faith in people that are morally depraved. They will you over every single time. Next up, speaking of morally depraved, we have Stephen Miller playing offense here. And this is a. A response about Elon Musk. And I want you to pay attention as to how he describes Elon Musk as an outsider who's.

This bill is to support the invasion. To oppose this bill is to support the continued giveaways and freebies to cheaters and Scam artists. To oppose this bill is support a 68% tax hike on the American public. And it's also to oppose this bill is to support a deprivation of all of the tax benefits that President Trump is fighting to deliver to the middle class. Like no tax on tips, no tax on Social Security, no tax on overtime. The Senate passed this bill just today demonstrating that they are fighting for President Trump. They are fighting for his agenda. They are not going to listen to an outside voice that does not represent the interests of the American people or the interests of the Republican Party. And the House is going to rally behind President Trump to pass this bill for America.
- [08:55]
Political Commentator 1
Okay? When he says that they're not going to listen to an outside voice. Elon Musk yesterday on Twitter noted, I could escalate this, but I won't for now. So they all know what secret lies and what Elon Musk has inside him. So they're already playing offense with the base. Don't listen to an outsider. He's not one of us. He's not an American. Which I mean, I could have told all of the Latinos for Trump, all of the Arabs for Trump in Michigan. I could have told all of them. Just one, one moment. If you're an immigrant and you vote for the people who wave up signs proudly mass deportation now, you are not safe. But I don't know how to teach basic deduction skills to grown ass adults. I mean, I'm just beyond that. I don't know what you do, but Stephen Miller is the architect of this. This guy gets a hard on in an erection when he sees caught materials. He wants alligator Alcatraz. He wants to detain and deport American citizens. This man is a Nazi. This man is the architect of every ounce of this. And he is measured and disciplined at the way he's rolling this out. Donald Trump doesn't give a about a lot of this stuff. He just wants to be popular and adored in the base and he wants to troll people on social media. He doesn't have deep plans about these things. Now, is Donald Trump a racist? 100%. That's why it's so easy for him to sign on board with these policies. But he's not ambitious enough to do all of the things that Stephen Miller wants to do. But Stephen Miller is wildly ambitious and I would say Nazi style ambitious. And that alligator Alcatraz is just going to be the first of many. And these things are going to pop up in red states all over the United States of America. I bet our governor Kevin Stitt is already in conversations about where he can put his alligator, Alcatraz and what animal they can use. Rattlesnake, Alcatraz. And I guarantee you they're going to start popping up everywhere because this is Stephen Miller's wet dream.
- [11:08]
Political Commentator 2
It absolutely is. And I listen to Stephen Miller and I think, okay, he's on Fox. So they don't even know the truth. But no tax on Social Security is not in the bill and he clearly said no tax on overtime that is not in the bill. He is sitting there lying. Laura Ingram lets him get away with it because nobody gives the about the voter.
- [11:31]
Political Commentator 1
But Laura Ingram lets him get away with it because she's in on the propaganda. No, I know, but I'm just saying.
- [11:37]
Political Commentator 2
It just drives me crazy. Oh, we're going to round up all the murderers that came in through the border. Okay, where are they? You haven't done it. You have no proof. All you have are big sayings and things that get people rattled and all fired up about dehumanizing people. You're not doing a thing to help Americans.
- [11:57]
Political Commentator 1
No, they're doing nothing to help Americans. Absolutely nothing. If you look at the economic numbers, the stock market right now is kind of masking what's really happening. But if you look at like the dollar, the dollar this year has the worst start since like the early and all of the underlying components of the economy because of what they're doing with this deportation and all of this whacked out tariff stuff. It is going to be beyond a recession. And it's coming. The stock market is just kind of band aiding it and helping country club Republicans feel good about the 401ks right now. But it's coming. The pain is coming. And the problem is when the country club Republicans start to lose their money. They're being so indoctrinated right now and so easily indoctrinated because they're so racist at their core. That is their number one motivating driving force is hating black and brown people. That as soon as the stock market starts to drop, they will say, well, we all have to suffer a little bit to get all of these immigrants out of the country. They'll 100% sign on board with something that's all unnecessary because the cruelty is more satisfying to them than than financial stability. And that is an absolute cancer in this country. Which brings me to the way the press always covers all of this stuff. So here is a headline from the right wing and it says, Trump withholds nearly 8.9 billion for schools with little explanation. The left covers the same story harms children. Trump admin slammed as billions frozen for kindergarten through 12 schools. So as you can see, as we talk about MAGA and how they process information and the mental gymnastics that they have to go through in order to be a good citizen, it's important to stay engaged because we're at the fight for the heart and soul of American democracy. And that's why every single morning pumps and I log on to our Ground News Vantage plan. It categorizes here's what the left is saying, here's what the right saying, here's what's factual, here's what's not, and who owns it.
- [14:05]
Political Commentator 2
Yes, it gives me a lot of information that is absolutely vital. What is the right saying and how much can I depend on the facts that I'm reading that they're true?

Notes, notes. Next up, sometimes the mainstream media reports something appropriately with a headline. Pop up. The CNN headline, Rubio hell's end of USAID as studies says its elimination could contribute to 14 million deaths in the next five years. It's just not that hard. This is one headline here. Rubio's excited. He is celebrating the end of USAID. They mark that. And then the second part of the headline as Study reveals 14 million deaths of the poorest, most needy people in the world. And Marco Rubio is on the record for decades talking about what a big Christian he is and how important God and his Lord and savior Jesus Christ is to him. And he is celebrating the deaths of 14 million of the most needy and the most hungry. And every American needs to address Christian hypocrisy. It is the the core and it is the oxygen and the lifeline that lets this breed. Because there I know that there are many Christians out there that believe in social justice, that believe in helping the weak, that believe in helping the marginalized. They're just not in power. The people that are in power are Old Testament Christians that are cruel, that use people's faith to manipulate them. They're mega church preachers breed this hatred and this racism into the American public. And now it's Indo American politics, and now it's into the American electorate, and it is absolutely going to be the demise of our country.
- [16:25]
Political Commentator 2
I completely agree. And Marco Rubio was also on the record for at least a decade hailing the benefits of USAID for diplomatic purposes. Purposes. So this is straight to. I'm going to put my lips on Trump's ass and I'm going to do what he says. And people dying so that we can be selfish. He, he sleeps at night. He doesn't think about it. People are dead. Yeah, I mean, it's just, it's, it's deplorable.

Political Commentator 1
No, you're exactly right. I've seen the clips about him. You know, he was a big advocate for usaid. Okay. And in here, I just want to quote some scripture. It's a, it's a rare day at. This might be a first at Ihip News where the unapologetic athe wants to read from the Bible. Today, class, put up the scripture. We have Leviticus 19, 33, 34. Do not mistreat foreigners living in your country, but treat them just as you treat your own citizens. Love foreigners as you love yourselves, because you were foreigners one time in Egypt. I am the Lord your God. And so I just find this rather interesting as an atheist, that in the Bible right here, there are instructions about how to treat immigrants. I just find that incredibly fascinating. And so at a micro level, I want everybody to find that Bible verse and take a picture of it and text it to the maga Christians in your lives. Because there are little things that we can do. There's the how do we get to the midterms? How do we ensure that we have free and fair elections? But there's also small things that we can do. And if you have triple Trumpers in your life, we have to try to start penetrating, because it is going to take all of us to save this country. It's going to take every single one of us. And I saw a horrific, horrific poll that at this time during Trump's first term, among Republican voters, he had something like 53 approval rating. Now, in 2025, his approval rating among Republicans has gone up like a rocket. It's at 65% approval ratings, and that is devastating to the moral compass of this country. So there are micro things that we all can do. So if an atheist can read scripture on Ihip News, all of you that have MAGA Christians in your life, screenshot that Bible verse and Send that to them, because we have to fight this fascist regime, this Christian nationalist regime that is ruining your faith. If you're a Christian and you believe in that, these people are ruining your faith. And it so easy for atheists like me to just rip it to shreds. So screenshot that scripture and send it to your loved ones and send it to your triple Trumpers and start calling them out for their hypocrisy and their cruelty, because they are the reason that this man is in office. Crazy people exist all over the world. Hitler exists. He wouldn't have existed without support. He would have been a crazy man writing crazy books, but people supported him. Donald Trump exists because of this support. And we all have to fight it on a local level. And so please, please, everybody realize every single day there are little micro things we can do. And these next three and a half years are not going to be comfortable and they're not going to be fun. But all generations before us fought this fight. They stood up for civil rights, they stood up for democracy, and by God, we're going to do the same. So fight it on a micro level, fight it on a macro level.
