Was just mentioning to me right before we clicked record here that McCainkle's taco tits height is 5 foot 10 inches and the weight is 285 pounds. So as we vacillate from nickname to nickname, taco tits, McCainkles, all this stuff, sometimes we might just be 5 foot 10, 285 pound cankles McTaco tits. So anyway, I just want to throw that out there, but this is our little weekend wrap up. I picked some stories here that are kind of all over the place that, that are important to me and that we talk about. So the first thing Kylie put this up is the APAC tracker and they do really important work. Last week, you guys, 20 Senate Democrats voted with every Senate Republican to continue arming Israel. And let's do a roll call of who these 20 are. Bennett, Blumenthal, Corey Booker, Cantwell, Coons, Masto, Federman, Jilla Brand, Hassan Hickenlooper, Osof, Padilla, Peters, Reed, Rosen, Schiff, Schumer, Warner, White House, and Widen. And this is really important that this gets covered because right now I'm very worried about seeing, when you have somebody who I believe is genuinely anti Semitic is Marjorie Taylor Greene, and then you see some tweets coming out from her showing empathy and compassion for these Palestinian children. The Democratic Party is leaving a dangerous vacuum there by not having moral clarity on this issue. All of those 20 senators that AIPAC is track, that the AIPAC tracker is tracking, they all receive hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars from AIPAC lobbyists and they're morally compromised. And so with like the instance of Cory Booker or some of these other senators, they get out on the Senate floor and they spe passionately about the rights of brown children, immigrants in the United States of America that are getting deported. And then they're funding a person who should be in jail, Benjamin Netanyahu, they're complicit in starving these brown children in Palestine. And so credible messaging and getting through this fascist coup that's happening in the United States of America is really important. And leaving vacuums where the Marjorie Taylor Greene starts making sense is a very, very dangerous, dangerous space for Democrats to leave open like that. And I, I don't know what the right answer is about this, but I will say that all 20 of those senators really lose credibility. And then the, the argument is, oh, you people on the far left have a purity test. This isn't a purity test, it's a hypocrisy test. And that that should be just the bare Minimum to enter into the Democratic Party. Look, all the hypocrites are over in maga. They say they give a about kids but they do nothing about guns. It's the easiest thing to prove how hypocritical they are. And now we have these MAGA esque hypocrisy style politicians running the Senate voting with the Ted Cruz's of the world. And this is the only bipartisanship that I'm seeing in the Senate is supporting bombs and policies that are active in genocide of Palestinians. And this is just really heartbreaking and leaving a very dangerous vacuum out there.
Unknown Speaker 3
I think you make a great point with the vacuum because when I was reading Marjorie Taylor Greene I was like, I'm terrified that I agree with her.
Unknown Speaker 2
Right?
Unknown Speaker 3
Her reasoning I don't agree with. I think, I think we should all be able to agree that you should not kill innocent children. And that's not what we're doing. We're funding it. So I believe that it was the Washington Post that printed the names of the children.
Unknown Speaker 2
17,500.
Unknown Speaker 3
It's unbelievable that we are not all united in saying this cannot go on.
Unknown Speaker 2
And we need to talk about it even deeper than that because of course we should all agree and those 20 Democratic senators are compromised and a danger to democracy right now having that type of moral duplicity. But Israel talks a great length about their military prowess, the accuracy of their bombs and their intelligence agencies, etc. Etc. And we've been sold propaganda that Hamas hides in hospitals and so they had to bomb all these hospitals. They've killed doctors, nurses, sick people, etc. Etc. They've produced zero evidence, zero evidence of Hamas hiding in hospitals and setting up headquarters in hospitals. So extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. And what they did, I mean they killed physicians that were treating people that were just generally sick and people that were sick from these bombs. And so when you get to the word genocide, it's, you know, they're annihilating their, all of the systems in which they function and live. And so it goes so much deeper. And that's why it's so disappointing when you see a lot of those senators we've had on our podcast, when you see them continue to do that, in my mind, I think, you know, you're really no different from Ted Cruz, you're just slightly more likable. You know, you're just not homophobic. But the fact that you can be bought and paid for and you're every bit as big of a prostitute that Ted Cruz is, that's what you want your best foot forward in fighting this fascism. And you know, Benjamin Netanyahu's government is far right fascist, authoritarian. He's a criminal. He's a war criminal that needs to be arrested.
Unknown Speaker 3
Well, and guess who is supporting him wholeheartedly? Donald Trump. I mean, Donald Trump is sanctioning people that want to, you know, he's all around saying, you can't prosecute Benjamin Netanyahu. You, we're going to have him here. It's like if you are in the lap of Donald Trump on this issue, you should know that you're wrong. And I don't care who's funding you, you should be able to stand up against it. Because Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu, the only difference is ambition and intellect. Donald Trump has none and Benjamin Netanyahu has a lot.
Unknown Speaker 2
Well, and the scary thing about Donald Trump is Benjamin Netanyahu has taken it this far and gone this far because everybody knows how easy it is to dog walk him.
Unknown Speaker 3
That's right.
Unknown Speaker 2
All right, next up we have the Washington Post is reporting that the Smithson in is a, they removed Trump from the impeachment exhibit in American History Museum. The Smithsonian said it restored the display to an earlier version which notes that only three presidents have seriously faced removal. The capitulation after capitulation after capitulation to this man is just jarring that this, that people will not stand up and be like, no, we're not whitewashing history for your orange ass.
Unknown Speaker 4
Right.
Unknown Speaker 3
And here's the thing. People with money, Harvard, Columbia, Brown, now these have endowments. Why are they not fighting for their students? And I always, it makes me feel better thinking a hundred years from now my great grandchildren will know that we were on the right side of history. But what Donald Trump is doing is trying to rewrite history. He's already got half of the Fox News audience believing that it was just little dust up at the Capitol on January 6th when it was a full blown riot, insurrection, where people died. He pardoned these people. So I often comfort myself with we are on the right side of history. He's changing history and these people are allowing it.
Unknown Speaker 2
Right? And he can, he can try all he wants to, to the short term change history. But history has a way of bearing out the, the facts and sometimes it takes a long time. You know, like I, we grew up in Oklahoma. I never learned about the Tulsa race riots growing up, but I've learned about them now. And so I mean, Donald Trump, everybody that, that has been capitulating to him is viewing everything through a Very short term lens. And it's just, I don't know if there's somebody MAGA at the Smithsonian or they just thought it, we'll change it for three or four years and we'll change it back. I don't know. But the damage, the reputational damage to capitulating to him and seems to me like it should be career ending. All right, next up, this is something that the Democrats have got to start messaging and messaging big, big, big time. Brian Allen tweets. I wish conservatives understood one thing. If it weren't for blue states, the US would be a third world country with broadband holes, broken schools and zero innovation. Red states take federal money, blue states make it. You don't fund the country, you drain it. Bad ideas, no revenue. And the loudest voices are always the ones who bring the least to the table. And put up this chart. So here it is. Figure candidate share of 2018 gross domestic product GDP by county in the 2020 presidential election. And as you can see, more than 500 counties won by Joe Biden generated 71% of America's GDP in 2018. The counties won by Trump generated 29%. And this is something. Gavin Newsom is doing a very good job. He is a, he does a very good job. But I think the media, Fox News, has done a very good job propagandizing that everybody needs to be scared of blue states, that everybody needs to be scared of big cities. I mean, and it works because even Charlie Kirk, you know, who fancies himself to be an alpha male, went to New York and said he was really scared and he didn't feel safe. And he put it, I mean, he wrote that down and tweeted it out there, which we're in New York three times a month and I've never felt unsafe, not one time. Which, you know, Charlie Kirk is, I.
Unknown Speaker 3
Was gonna say he's a big fat.
Unknown Speaker 2
We're badasses, obviously. Obviously. Okay. But this messaging, that graph is something that collectively needs to start getting a lot of momentum. In my opinion. Red states are a problem. And we know this listener because live in one. And what that, that tweeter said the loudest voices. Look at, look at our state. We've got dip. Governor Kevin Stitt blessed every. What did he.
Unknown Speaker 3
Every square inch.
Unknown Speaker 2
Every square inch of the state to Jesus Christ. Dedicated every square inch of the state of Oklahoma to Jesus Christ. During his tenure, we have fallen to the 50th ranking spot in education, women's safety and well being has plummeted. And so either number One, Jesus doesn't like Kevin Stead or Oklahoma or number two, all of that is bullshit. But the thing is, he's this loud voice and he uses religion to manipulate rural voters into thinking he's on their side. Meanwhile, the only side that he's been on are the oil and gas companies, of which there are a lot in Oklahoma. And people get abandoned and they believe this propaganda that this void Fox News and the Charlie Kirk fill because they can't get ahead. Because the Kevin Stits, the Donald Trumps, the Lindsey Grahams, the dipshit, unfuckable Ted Cruzes will never raise their wages and will blame it on, you know, white liberal women, immigrants, and on and on. You know, the list black people, all the list of all the people they hate.
Unknown Speaker 3
Well, it's just, it's such an easy point to make and I agree with you. I was unaware until adulthood that this was a fact that blue cities and blue states provide money for the parasitic. And it's typically the Bible belt.
Unknown Speaker 2
You know, those are the worst.
Unknown Speaker 4
Right.
Unknown Speaker 3
It's like all the God states. You're having the hardest time.
Unknown Speaker 2
Which is, which is really interesting, you know, because you were, you were raised religious and I remember before you found enlightenment and left your religion aside, you would say things like, well, I'm just going to pray about it.
Unknown Speaker 4
Right.
Unknown Speaker 2
You know, that that will fix everything.
Unknown Speaker 3
Well, that's what you're taught.
Unknown Speaker 2
Right, Right, right. And, and that all of these religious states, the, the suffering of their citizens is much, much more. You know, Gavin Newsom is fighting for people in California to be paid a higher wage. Same with Hochul in New York. To me, that's a very decent, if I were a Christian, a very Christlike thing to do, to say, hey, we're going to lift you up so that you don't live in poverty, so that you earn a respectable, decent wage that you can. That's not demeaning to you? And I always see these Democratic polit with a lot more Christlike ideals than I ever see the overtly loud screaming, I'm a big Jesus thumper politician. They're always mean to specifically poor people. All of these MAGA policies directly are attacks on the poorest among us, both globally and domestically.
Unknown Speaker 3
Completely agree. But I think it comes from the entitlement of I'm better than you and I should get more because I'm white. And it's patriarchal by design. I mean, it teaches people that they are better than other people and they get to stand in judgment of other people. And it's a fundamental problem. And when we're talking about the, the economic message that needs to be taken about the red blue state difference in economy, people need to understand that these religious voters are indoctrinated to believe they are better than other people and they get to sit in judgment of other people. And that's why they're so cruel.
Unknown Speaker 2
They are. Okay, this is for you. Pbs. This is a meme I found online. This Renee Libby. Yep. Tweets out. We need to redecorate the ballroom for $200 million. Donald Antoinette Trump. And she has a meme of Donald Trump dressed up like Marie Antoinette. I do think the boobs in real life are actually his man boobs are actually larger than this meme. So I would suggest that. But you know, this is just, this is not going to end well for maga. I don't know when it's going to end for them, but historically this is just not going to end well for them. This is a short sighted group of cosplayers that don't know shit from Shinola. They don't know how to govern. They're wildly insecure. I think we're talking about major inner.
Unknown Speaker 3
Child issues and little penises. And let's talk about this. Donald Trump get a decorator. Gold everywhere is a terrible look.
Unknown Speaker 2
He thinks he's the decorator. That's what I'm saying.
Unknown Speaker 3
Like he thinks that good.
Unknown Speaker 2
And no one says this looks like he had that dip wit cough or whatever it is over in Paris.
Unknown Speaker 4
Right.
Unknown Speaker 2
I know. Telling the French about what a good decorator Donald Trump was. And he's. And the French were kind of giggling and he didn't get that. They were laughing at him.
Unknown Speaker 3
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 2
Because these are all cosplayers that worship their imperfect vessel. And Marie antoinette taco tits mckingles trump my only graph with a 10, 285 pound convicted felon.
Unknown Speaker 3
The makeup was far too smooth on that picture.
Unknown Speaker 2
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Kylie, you need to rework that a little bit and we need to send it back to the, the tweeter because it was hers. I think it's hers. Just say, hey, we touched. We added some enhancements and we need to do the makeup line and I think bigger, more wrinkly boobs. I mean, you've seen him in the golf shirt.
Unknown Speaker 3
Oh God. He looks like, he looks like a humpty Dumpty because he's so round in the middle. He's so round. Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 2
It's not, it's not a good thing. It's not good. All right, that's all we have for today. We hope you all have a lovely weekend. Do this for us. Get click the link in bio and go order our brick.

IHIP News Episode Summary: "Trump is Terrified of Gavin Newsom Who Vows to Take Him Out"
Release Date: August 3, 2025
Hosts Jennifer Welch and Angie “Pumps” Sullivan delve deep into the current political landscape, addressing critical issues with their signature comedic and progressive flair. In this episode, they tackle the influence of AIPAC on Democratic senators, the troubling rise of figures like Marjorie Taylor Greene, the intricate dynamics of the Israel-Palestine conflict, the portrayal of Donald Trump in historical narratives, the economic disparities between blue and red states, and the pervasive influence of religious voters in conservative regions.
[00:05 – 05:55]
Jennifer begins the discussion by highlighting the significant bipartisan support for arming Israel, specifically pointing out that "20 Senate Democrats voted with every Senate Republican to continue arming Israel" [00:05]. She meticulously lists the senators involved, emphasizing their financial ties to AIPAC and questioning their moral standing.
Jennifer Welch [00:05]: "The Democratic Party is leaving a dangerous vacuum there by not having moral clarity on this issue."
Jennifer criticizes the perceived hypocrisy of Democratic senators who advocate for immigrant rights domestically while supporting policies that adversely affect Palestinians internationally. She accuses these senators of being morally compromised due to their financial ties with AIPAC, arguing that their actions contribute to the suffering of Palestinian children.
[03:36 – 05:55]
Angie chimes in, expressing her concern over the emergent support for Marjorie Taylor Greene, noting:
Angie Sullivan [03:36]: "I’m terrified that I agree with her."
The hosts discuss the detrimental impact of Democrats not providing clear moral leadership, which inadvertently allows figures like Greene to gain traction. They argue that this lack of clarity undermines the party's credibility and offers space for extremist voices to fill the void.
[04:00 – 06:37]
Jennifer continues by dissecting the actions of Israel under Benjamin Netanyahu, labeling his government as "far right fascist, authoritarian" and a "war criminal" [05:55]. She draws parallels between Netanyahu and figures like Ted Cruz, suggesting that both are easily influenced and corruptible. The discussion underscores the moral conflict within the Senate, where bipartisan support for aggressive policies against Palestinians persists despite evidence of their devastating impact.
[05:55 – 07:58]
The conversation shifts to a recent Washington Post report about the Smithsonian removing Trump from an impeachment exhibit. Jennifer criticizes this decision as an attempt to "whitewash history."
Jennifer Welch [07:15]: "The capitulation after capitulation after capitulation to this man is just jarring."
Angie adds that despite Trump's efforts to alter historical narratives, history ultimately reveals the truth over time, citing the Tulsa race riots as an example of historical events being rediscovered and acknowledged long after their occurrence.
[07:58 – 14:01]
Jennifer presents a compelling argument about the economic contributions of blue versus red states, referencing a tweet by Brian Allen that "more than 500 counties won by Joe Biden generated 71% of America's GDP in 2018" [10:17]. She criticizes Fox News and other conservative media for propagating fear about blue states, arguing that red states actually drain federal resources instead of contributing to innovation and economic growth.
Jennifer Welch [10:17]: "Red states are a problem... They drain the country, bad ideas, no revenue."
The hosts highlight the successes of Democratic governors like Gavin Newsom and Hochul in promoting higher wages and combating poverty, contrasting these efforts with the failures of Republican counterparts who, according to Jennifer, use religion and populist rhetoric to manipulate and divide voters without addressing substantive economic issues.
[12:10 – 14:01]
The discussion delves into how religious indoctrination in red states fosters a sense of superiority and judgmental attitudes towards others. Jennifer critiques Republican leaders like Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt for leveraging religion to garner support while neglecting the actual well-being of their constituents.
Jennifer Welch [12:32]: "Gavin Newsom is fighting for people in California to be paid a higher wage... All of these MAGA policies directly are attacks on the poorest among us."
Angie agrees, adding that this entitlement mentality is patriarchal by design, leading to cruelty and economic stagnation in conservative regions.
[14:01 – 15:59]
Transitioning to a lighter tone, the hosts share and mock a meme depicting Donald Trump dressed as Marie Antoinette. They humorously critique the exaggerated portrayal of Trump's physique and his fashion sense.
Jennifer Welch [14:51]: "He thinks he's the decorator. That's what I'm saying."
This segment serves as a satirical take on Trump's persona, highlighting the disconnect between his self-image and public perception.
Jennifer and Angie wrap up the episode by encouraging listeners to support the show and stay engaged with the political discourse. They reiterate the importance of understanding the systemic issues within both major political parties and the broader implications for democracy.
