The president of the United States doesn't read. He doesn't read at all. And so he has this trickle down incompetence that's going on with his administration. And something unbelievable breathtaking happened yesterday at a FEMA meeting. Put up this tweet, Reuters reports. Exclusive FEMA staff confused after he said he was unaware of US hurricane season sources say. Ron Philipkowski responds. Trump already fired his first FEMA chief last month. This is the upgrade. So imagine FEMA when all the natural disasters that we have in the United States, we live in tornado alley. Then you have hurricane season, wildfires, all of this stuff. And the FEMA director doesn't know there's a hurricane season. I think third graders know this.

Well, what's so interesting about this is this is the number two pick. So how bad was number one? And here's the thing about Trump. He's withholding FEMA funds. He told us during the campaign that the Biden administration and Kamala Harris were withholding funds when actuality he is withholding funds. So he doesn't give a shit if the FEMA director knows because he doesn't really care about helping people.

There was a tornado in Mississippi, which is deep, deep MAGA country. And there are all of these Trump supporters interviewed and they're all saying, we haven't seen the feds around here. And he just, he's thumbing his nose at this. This is not something he wants to spend money on. This is not something he wants to get a presidential daily briefing on. Helping his supporters is not his goal. Lying and propagandizing his supporters is the goal. And now I, I've added a couple of clips here exclusively for pumps. Pumps and I have a little side hustle where we like to monitor the going ons of Mike Lindell. So in Trump 1.0, in the last days of his presidency, when he's really trying to not leave the Oval, right? Mike Lindell arrives at the Oval Office every day and pumps and I would call each other and I'd be like, Mike Lindell's going in the Oval again. And this is the guy who makes the my pillow. He makes the my pillow. He had their advertisement. Has zero expertise on anything other than being a nut. And like the top tier cult follower of Donald Trump. Well, he has this trial about lying about all of these machines, these voting machines, and here he is raving on the steps of the courthouse. Play the clip.

But it was also my evidence. So when I come in, I needed that evidence. When you delete evidence, it's like throwing a gun in a river. That's called spoliation in any court case. They threw away my evidence. You think I wasn't upset about that too? But no, I wasn't worried about some court case down the road. I was worried about. I mean, I can't believe the COVID up that they're covering up our elections, starting here in Colorado.

Okay, so, you know, it's amazing to me, like the whole 2020 and what a fatal blow that was to Trump. He still can't get over it. No, you have. He's like the biggest sore loser and also the biggest sore winner. Which leads me to the conclusion, nothing will ever make this man happy. I mean, he has major mommy and daddy issues. His inner child, little Donald, is just, you know, so stunted, such a whiner. And that's why we see all this toddler like reaction from him. But Mike Lindell, this guy is a former CR addict and got into recovery, which kudos to him, I commend that. But imagine going through that whole process of rehab and, you know, coming back from smoking crack and you make this pillow company, you sell pillows to all these Fox News watchers and then you decide that you're a voting expert and you lose all of your money and you're raving about spoliation. Is that a legal term?

It's not, it's not spoilation. Spoilation. Okay, okay, so he pronounces it wrong.

I mean, of course, course he does. But what I found interesting about this little clip was if you saw in the corner, there's a big cross underneath his headline. And let us not forget, Fox News paid almost $1 billion for lying about Dominion voting systems. He is not going to reinvent the wheel on this. He knows he's wrong, but he's so psycho he can't admit it. And here's the deal. He is dead ass broke, cannot even pay his attorney's fees. He has bankrupted himself in favor of Donald Trump. It is crazy to me.

Pumps the point you bring up about Fox paying nearly a billion dollars for lying to their viewers and the fact that Democratic strategists have not used that and hammered that over and over and over and have it catch fire like a virus across all different silos, that they just do that, that there's a deference. Oh, the patriarchy gets to lie, Donald Trump gets to lie and then we just defer to that and then we just move on. Because I think the Democrats operate under so much assumption politics. They assume, oh, people hear that Fox News is lying to their viewers and so they're not going to watch it anymore. But in fact, it makes them that much more plugged in. That's the whole personality cult. But here is Mike Lindell. Here's a head from the same news conference that MyPillow CEO had harsh words for Lucifer, claiming that anything done with a computer could be vulnerable to hell's influence. Mike Lindell says Satan rigged the voting machines in 2020. This is a headline from yesterday and we talk about this a lot here on IHIP News. And that is the magical thinking at the core of the MAGA movement. All of this spiritual warfare where they believe that God, that Trump is God's angel, his imperfect vessel. The Democrats are Satan. And here you see it just echoed all throughout the most loyal followers of the Trump cult. And he just, I mean, he just says that with cameras in front of him. The Satan, Lucifer, stuff like that's normal or even real.

Well, we have the third in line to the presidency running around saying he's Moses. God told him he was Moses. So this is right on brand for Maga. It's just when you said Lucifer, I was like, who the fuck is Lucifer? And then I was like, oh, my God. He's talking about, oh, my God, the devil, the devil. Like that's where we are in politics. The speaker of the House is Moses. According to him, God told him he was Moses. And Mike Lindell thinks Satan is rigging voting machines. That's how far we've come.

Well, but this is, this has been a long, decades long play from the religious right. And they have embedded themselves into mega churches all across the heartland of the United States. The number one goal of these mega churches is to recruit and grow. And they get people in, they get them to feel bad about critically thinking. That's a sin to question, is Satan real? Is he plotting against me? Is Satan rigging voting machines? You know, and so you have all of these people that have been encouraged to not critically think. And it is a cancer in the United States of America. And it is a cancer at the epicenter of the MAGA movement. If you could get these people to critically think, they would become, they would come to the conclusion, oh, I see, they're lying, they're lying to me because they don't want to pay taxes. They're lying to me about immigrants and drag queens and trans people and gay people because they want to take the eye off the ball as to all the evil shit they're doing and for me to focus on these others. And so this has been a decades long attack and it has infiltrated so many different facets of American culture. And I don't think people in the beltway realize how powerful, powerful this is and that when Caroline Levitt and others wear their cross, that when a viewer, an average viewer that's maybe somewhat political but not really, sees a person like Caroline Levitt say something with her cross on, she's lying her ass off, they think, oh well, she wouldn't lie. She's a good Christian girl.

And so it's Christian signaling, right to the deeply indoctrinated people that run around and listener living in Oklahoma. I mean, the recruiting of evangelical Christianity is exhausting. It puts the multi level marketing stuff to shame. The recruiting is a full time job for these people. And when you think about it from a psychological standpoint, it's so codependent and toxic. It's none of their business to go into people's lives that are seemingly functional. Maybe go to church, maybe don't go to church and tell them how they should believe, what they should do. And this, I have fallen prey to this my entire life. And the people who do this are at the epicenter of this MAGA movement. Recently there was a an acquaintance I kind of vaguely know and she posted on social media an image of her three sons that are probably like age 7 to 12 on vacation, all wearing Gulf of America hats. Oh gosh. But she is a big Bible mom, a big Bible thumper, a big Trump thumper, a big triple trumper. And to think about the dissonance of what the central character of Christianity discusses, what's important to him, and then what Trump discusses and what's important to him. And that they are able to meld those two together and somehow assume that Trump is somehow God's imperfect angel and vessel is just breathtaking stupidity.

Well, I think to take it a step further, having grown up in an evangelical church, you have the not only am I going to tell you how to live, I'm going to tell you who to marry. And I'm better than you. So I can tell you that I am above you. I can tell you what to do because you don't know what's good for you as much as I do. And that is a huge Huge problem. And I, it's, I'm telling you, it's rampant. Every single one of them would sit.

There and say that, no, it, it is, it is so rampant. And it is something that, that in order for us to get the heart and soul of this country back on track, it's something that has to be called out. This religious hypocrisy, it has to be addressed. It has to be confronted. And they're going to, oh, my God. Christians are persecuted, they're going to go bananas, but they weaponize their religion to do evil shit full stop. That's what they do. But speaking of people in the Trump cult, I always like to keep a little eye on Trump's spiritual advisor, Paula White, tongue talker, complete nut job, grifter, con woman, total criminal, who Trump has exalted up to be the spiritual advisor to the president. Gag. Play the clip. No to President Trump would be saying no to God. And therefore, and I won't do that. And any tongue that rises against him will be condemned according to the word of God. It is God that raises up a kingdom. It is God that sets one down. And so when you fight against the plan of God, you're fighting against the hand of God. Okay, so this is all that spiritual warfare shit. And I didn't grow up in any of this. My parents were atheists and I mean, I dodged the bullet living in the Bible Belt. But when my friends growing up would first tell me about this spiritual warfare, I was like, what do you mean, spiritual warfare? It sounds so dramatic. But there is a large segment of the American population that traffic in, like, you know, Southern Baptist, these mega churches where they're non denominational, those are the most insidious. And they think that, like right now, as we're sitting here in this room, there are angels for God and there are angels for the devil. And you can imagine with everything that we're saying, what the evangelical would think was winning in this recording studio right now, it would be exactly what Mike Lindell says about Satan rigging the voting machines. This is insanity. And you have millions of Americans that believe this crap, and that is how they jump to supporting Maggot. Because there's no critical thinking. They are told, here is your belief system. If you question it, it's a sin. And that's Satan winning in the spiritual warfare battle. And so those of you that live in big blue cities, that you don't have this dominant maga culture, Christian evangelical cult, I have to tell you, this is very real. And I just want to leave you all with this. This is Elon Musk, A tale of two tweets regarding ketamine. Kylie put this up in 2024. He says, My tolerance for ketamine is unlimited. May 31st of 2025. He says, I'm not on ketamine, for fuck's sake. And so, you know, I just think it's important to note that the Internet is forever. And we have on top of all of these crazy Christians that are at the EP center of excusing everything that Trump does so that he can do very evil things, taking away food and medications from poor people, which I would think the central character, Jesus Christ would be for. He also is surrounded by untreated drug addicts, which if any of you have been around a raving alcoholic or drug addict, you don't want them to be in charge of anything. But in Trump's administration, he's like, yeah, here's the checkbook to the Treasury. Yeah. Have 19 year olds named big Balls come in and wreck everything? All right, listen, order a our book. It's called Life is a Lazy Susan of Shit Sandwiches. The link is pinned right below and we'll see you all later.
