Joining me today on IHIP News is my friend and a journalist who happens to be Trigger Maga. Simply by looking in the camera and breathing. It is so delicious. Let's welcome, of course, Don Lemon. Dawn, welcome in studio Baby News.
A
Let's go, girlfriend.
B
Oh, I'm so happy you're here.
A
I'm happy to be here. When getting us together is problematic. You know that, right?
B
I know.
A
Because then the magas are really going to come for us. Especially in this environment.
B
We get in big trouble.
A
Good trouble.
B
Good trouble. All right, let's go. J.D. vance stepped into the spotlight while Trump was in China in his role as the fraud czar. So Trump has named J.D. vance as the frauds are, which my opinion is this is a rat. He is rat Vance. Because Trump is the most fraudulent president ever. So let's hear the clip.
A
All right. Fraud prevention. Seriously. So let me just close with one. One final observation here. First of all, why are we doing this now? Why weren't we doing this two years ago? And the simple answer is because we didn't have a president and. And we didn't have an administration who took fraud seriously. So I want to thank the president, United States. So I know he's busy in China. All of these efforts, all of these things that we're finding are because we have a president who has told us, take the fraud issue seriously, get to the root of it, and turn off the money. When we find out that money's going to fraudsters. So that's exactly what we're doing. Hypocrisy is. I mean, come on.
B
Yeah.
A
This administration, our regime, as I call it. This regime. He's making more money off of the presidency than anyone else. If anyone is grifting, if anyone is fraudulent, it's the Trump regime and the Trump family. They're just. What happened to the emoluments clause or any of that? The calls are coming from inside of the house. J.D. vance. And is he setting him up? Maybe setting him up like Pam Bondi to take the fall or the other people he fires?
B
Okay. Trump sends him to campaign with Viktor Orban. Embarrassing. Trump sends him to Pakistan to negotiate the peace talks. Face plan.
A
Right.
B
Trump says, hey, you know what, J.D. i'm going to put you in charge of fraud. I think it's rat fuck city.
A
Yeah. And you see who's out front now.
B
Yeah. Little Marco.
A
Marco Rubio. And so Marco Rubio is, you know, there's a, there's a fight going on reportedly in Washington between Marco Rubio and J.D. vance. Who's going to be the successor, the heir apparent. And odds are, if you look, and I think also on prediction markets, Marco Rubio is on top. Okay, think about Marco Rubio on top of that. I never say that, but any. That means J.D. would be on bottom.
B
So this is what happens when we get together. It's terrible. Think about this though. So Trump, do we really think he's going to allow Marco Rubio. Lil Marco, he loves to humiliate. He gave him the shoes that were too big for him. He dressed him up like Nicholas Maduro yesterday on Air Force One in this Nike jumpsuit and had Stephen Chung take a picture of his humiliating. Do you think Trump will give it to Lil Marco or do you think because Trump is so into eugenics, don't you think he might be like Ivanka, his favorite child?
A
Well, of course that's possible, but I think if anyone. Look, I, I don't know who the heir apparent necessarily is, but if he is favoring someone outside of his family, it would be Marco Rubio. I mean, you have to, you don't have to agree, but my opinion is, is that Marco Rubio is the most credible of any of the people he appointed. If anyone who you know can be the Secretary of State, it's Marco Rubio. JD Vance has no experience in foreign policy. We saw that. What's his face? Pete Hexa should be the defense Secretary. Marco Rubio is at least a senator who is well liked where he, you know, in Florida and you know, he has accomplishments and I think that, you know, he's qualified, he's the only qualified person in the administration. So if anyone is, should be at the top it should be Marco Rubio, but they all suck, Even Marco Rubio. Marco Rubio. I feel like he's died inside when you see him in those meetings right in the Oval Office. And he's just kind of sitting there like this because he knows, he knows better. He goes, I'm not the real flawed one. I'm the one with all the experience. I'm the qualified one. And I have to be in the clown car with these people. And I think he's just like, okay, I'm going to sell my soul for now. And then afterwards, when this is over, I'll try to see what's next.
B
Yeah, I don't think he enjoys being a prostitute. You can see it all over his face. You know, he just hoard himself out for maga. All right. Talking about all this fraud that JD Vance is going to have to be. The frauds are of. The DOJ is considering settling with Trump. Pop this up. New York Times breaking news. The Justice Department is said to be considering settling a lawsuit President Trump filed against the IRS over the release of his tax returns. And dawn, from the article, it says a settlement payment even a fraction of the size of Mr. Trump's requested 10 billion could be much larger than his other attempts at private gain, potentially doubling
A
his net worth as Bitcoin did that whole, you know, digital coin. That's, that's how he became a, a multi, multi billionaire. He was, I think it was like one or two billion dollars. It was his actual net worth. He was like worth $11 billion. That was all. But now since he's been been in office, he has doubled his wealth, at least almost tripled it because of Bitcoin, because he is using the presidency to make more money. The idea that he's suing the irs, which he is in charge of, so they're kind of on the same side. That's going to be problematic legally. You know, a lawyer can tell you better than I can. And I think that what they're trying to figure out, the courts, is that if they're on the same side or not, they have to be opposing figures in order to sue each other. But it seems like an inside fix to me because he's in charge of the Department of Justice. He sent out the, the, the text or the, the tweet to Pam Bondi. And, you know, he thought it was a private tweet saying, you got to, you got to go and, you know, you're not doing anything. And it's the same old story. And then he, you know, deleted It. So I think it's an inside job. I think that of course they're going to settle. Of course he's going to make billions of dollars because it's Donald Trump and it's a cult. And you know, he, they do whatever he says.
B
I agree. And I think, of course, at some point he has the keys to the piggy bank.
A
Yeah.
B
The United States Treasury. This guy is a con man, he's a crook, he is a liar and he is obsessed with being the best at everything. He knows Vladimir Putin has a bunch of money and robbed the pity piggy bank of Russia. That's why he admires him so much.
A
But think about it. Think about this. You remember doing Joe Biden and Hunter Biden got a job. Joe Biden wasn't even vice president. He was out of office and Hunter Biden got a job. And they're like, oh my gosh, he made so much money. It was like a $5 million job or whatever they were paying him. Think about all the money the Trump sons and daughter, Ivanka and son in law, how much money they've made off of the presidency. They're doing it out in the open. Look, as we are taping this, they are in China now.
B
Yeah.
A
And they have business dealings with the Chinese.
B
Yeah.
A
And so. And he, he's bringing his sons, he brought Elon Musk, he brought oligarchs and the billionaires. I think he's saying exactly what he wants. It's all about money and it's all fraudulent. They, they call the Biden family the, the Biden crime family. It should be called the Trump crime family. Can you imagine if Joe Biden was doing what Donald Trump was doing and his family was making money off the presidency or as much money or even a fraction of the money that they're making. Republicans would be losing their minds. We'd see smoke coming out of the headquarters at Fox News right now.
B
I don't think there are enough ers in the city of Manhattan pearls to clutch. There. There are. I mean, could you imagine Ms. Pris Walters dealing with. I mean, Waters. Yeah. Ms. Pris Waters dealing with this? I mean, he.
A
You call Walters too. I always get it confused. I'm like Jesse Walters, but Waters. Waters, yeah.
B
Jesse Waters. Okay. So speaking of rewriting the rules, grifting being pieces of shit, Trump is creating Amazon for guns.
A
You should say it like you mean it sometimes.
B
I know you shouldn't.
A
You shouldn't hold back so much.
B
Too much of a wallflower. All right, pop this up. Midas Touch is reporting the Trump administration is quietly rewriting federal gun regulations to create the legal framework for Amazon for guns. And Donald Trump Jr. Who I refer to as dumb and his brother Eric is dumber, so Dom could profit from it.
A
Yeah, well, I think what they want is for guns to be able to be legally sent through UPS or FedEx or whatever, whatever the mailing system, because they're saying if you continue to fund, meaning Congress or whatever, to be over, and maybe it's a usps, an agency that is, that represents the people, then law abiding citizens should be able to sell or buy or ship or receive legal guns if they do it legally. Now, we haven't figured out how to stop school shootings. We haven't figured out sensible gun legislation. We haven't figured out how to keep children safe from guns. But we can figure out, we can spend time trying to figure out how to ship more guns to more people. And who knows, how do you do that? What if little Tommy or little Jenny or whoever or Tom gets home and the UPS box is there or the FedEx box is there and they take it out in some. Something happens. What, what do you do? How do you regulate and who gets it?
B
I don't think they care. And this is how I know they don't care because Charlie Kirk, who they claim was like Donald Trump, is like a son to him. They have never brought up the fact that Charlie Kirk died from a preventable death from gun violence. Not one person that claims they love this man has said, we have to do something about the gun problems. And Charlie Kirk's alleged killer, a white guy from a MAGA household, lived in a total cracker neighborhood. It was as white on white, as white as it could get. Charlie Kirk was shot while he was talking about black gun violence and he was shot by white gun violence. They've never addressed it ever.
A
Because none of that ever happened, Jen. In their minds, it never happened. And that's not important. The cognitive dissonance that goes on with the MAGA folks is just unbelievable. As I showed you before, this Donald Trump saying he doesn't care about Americans finances when he's negotiating with Iran, and then him and MAGA saying that's not what he said. That's clearly what you said. It's clearly, yes, what you said happened. But they don't think about it because what, it doesn't bode well for white people. It doesn't bode well for what they want to deal with as far as guns, shipping them through the mail, having More people have more guns. They don't care about lives being lost. They don't care about any of it. They just care about money, power, control. The NRA has a hold on them and I really don't get it. If they believed in the right to life, then they would believe that kids in schools who are being shot up have the right to life. They would believe that people who are in movie theaters have a right to life. They would believe that people who are in just random places and random gun violence happens would have a right to life.
B
They would believe Charlie Kirk had a
A
right, had a right to life. It's all hypocritical.
B
Agree. I say all the time that MAGA is an anti family, pro pedophilia death cult. And I stand by it. Because all of their policies lead to death, the depreciation of life. They say they're for family, they're not. If they were for family, they would fund families. They would fund the soldiers that come back from these wars where all of these fat cat billionaires get rich making bombs. These soldiers that come back that have ptsd, that have lost limbs, that are up because they've killed people and they've seen their friends get killed. It's all, it's patriotism. It's. My husband and I always say we think it's a red flag when somebody says they're pro family. Who isn't pro family?
A
Everybody's pro family.
B
Yeah, it's a red.
A
Everybody's pro life.
B
Exactly.
A
Everybody's pro life except for maga. True. But you know what? Look, one day if I run for office, I'm going to, you know, one of my, my platforms is going to be black people go out and register for guns legally. Everybody go register for a gun. You want to see some gun legislation? You want to see how quick that happens? Is going to happen as quickly as they try to take voting rights right now away from black people. That's how quickly. No, no, no, no, no. We need to have some gun restrictions.
B
Here's the thing.
A
And you go get two guns. Go get three black people.
B
The minute Dumb and his dipshit dementia duck. Dad. Make these Amazon guns legal. You need to rally the black community to be the biggest purchasers of the mail in for guns. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
A
That's. That's our platform. I like presidents. What do you think of that?
B
I mean, let's go women. Welch.
A
Could you imagine if we start that?
B
Welch? Yeah. Our platform is you. Who's next?
A
Welch's. Welch's lemon juice. Look Out, Papa.
B
Okay. Our little malignant narcissist interior decorator, as I like to call him, inferior desecrator, is considering pardons for his birthday. Pop this up.
A
Oh, boy.
B
The Wall Street Journal is reporting the White House officials are weighing a plan for President Trump to issue 250 pardons as a way to mark the celebration of the nation's 250th birthday. Law and order, baby.
A
Law and order. So he wants to do pardons for everybody like he did pardons for the, for the folks for January 6th? Is that what's happening?
B
Yes.
A
Look, first of all, he should probably arrest himself because what he's done to the Oval Office is a crime.
B
Oh, my God, Liberace is rolling. I think it would even make Marie Antoinette blush.
A
And when we take office, we're not going to pardon him because we're like, this is desecration. Look at this crap. Nobody should be pardoned for this. They should go to jail forever. And he thinks it's great. Yeah, it's.
B
And then let's talk about all these people that pardoned. It seems like every time I get
A
online, I know what you're going to say.
B
Say it.
A
There's. Every time I go online and I go through my feed, I see some MAGA person or someone who is. Who has been pardoned from January 6, either being accused of sex crimes or having child corn it. Being in possession of things that they shouldn't be in possession of as it relates to children. Yeah, all of that are charged or are not just indicted, but found guilty of, convicted of.
B
Totally.
A
And. And we're not. It's not hyperbolic, it's true. Just go do the research.
B
It seems to be a feature, not a bug of all of the people online that their whole identity is the fight, fight, fight, attempted assassination photo. Like that's their profile.
A
And, and the pedos. And then they post trans people.
B
Drag queens are indoctrinating the trans ideology. Next thing you know, the guy whose whole identity is this is arrested and in the pokey for child sex abuse evidence and for molesting little kids and preying on children online. It seems to be a feature.
A
Well, I don't. Do you know who Tim Tebow is? Right?
B
Unfortunately, yes.
A
Okay, but did you see? He did one thing. A broken clock. He did one thing. He did. I don't know if it was a documentary or he went in depth on who are the child predators in this country and how big a problem it is. And he said it was middle aged white men, mostly conservative. White men. I think it's like 80% of, of that. 70 or 80, more than 70%. I think it's like 80% are middle aged white men. And no one is doing anything about it. I don't hear the Trump administration talking about it. I don't hear maga. I don't hear any Republican talking about that. I wish that Democrats would talk more about that because they're always talking about such and such is a pedo. You can be. I'm not sure if I can say that on your show, but such and such is a pedo. This person is doing things in a pizza, remember the pizza gate and all of that. And it's them who's doing it and it's the people who are closest to them in the family. It's the dad, it's the uncle, it's the neighbor, and it's middle aged white men.
B
And they're not a pastor. Youth pastors are always up in that shit. Those Christian camps, those Christian summer camps are just chock full.
A
But you know what it is, right? It's two things I believe. I've had a lot of therapy. It's repression.
B
Yep.
A
And the other thing is that you, many of them come become what they fight against. And so they're fighting against it and they're saying they're, they're really. Every accusation is a confession. They're really telling on themselves. When you're that adamant about something that doesn't really affect you, it means it's somehow affecting you. When you're that homophobic, something's going on with you.
B
I completely agree with that. I think that this is a huge problem. And you mentioned something that I think is super important and it is. Why are the Democrats not clamoring onto this more? So it's easy to identify all the of all this. The Democrats need to go full tilt and quit playing defense on the trans and drag queen and LGBTQ plus stuff. The platform should be. Why are MAGA men so obsessed with genitals and gay sex? It's the weirdest I've ever seen. I've never seen an obsession for sex like I have straight MAGA man obsession for sex.
A
So look, I think people who are of a certain age have been around long enough in, in the LGBTQ community, we always knew that because that they always hit on us or we have our friends tell stories or we know of someone. We've always known it. But now that the Internet and social media is there, everyone' kind of figuring it out. Now that you realize Whenever there's a Republican event, the Grinder server is like, smoking. They're like, oh, they call the fire department because it's on fire at Charlie Kirk's funeral.
B
Blasphemy.
A
Of course.
B
Of course.
A
It's because they're repressed. And the other thing is you become what you fight against and because you become what you fight against because deep down, that's what you are.
B
Exactly. And this always brings me back to a person I like to browbeat pretty frequently. And his name is Matt Schlapp. Matt Schlapp is a member of the cpac and he's a big Trump thumper. His wife, Mercedes Schlapp, is a journalist at Newsmax, and in her Twitter bio, she talks about, you know, faith, family, God, and she has, like a Bible verse in it. Matt Schlapp likes to get all liquored up at these CPAC conferences, and then he does a little grab and giggle of his fellow conservative attendees. Now, listen, I'm fine if people want to. I'm fine with consensual grab. This is. This is not consensual.
A
Right.
B
This is conservative on. And he is still in the fold.
A
There's a power dynamic because he's part of the management. Right. He's part of the. The group. The, you know, the group who runs it, the people who run it. And these are like young, vulnerable people, usually like interns or something. Yeah. And then he was accused of it. They.
B
It was a nice.
A
It was in the news for a minute, and then he talked about it, and he's still at cpac.
B
Kylie found a Christian Post article, went in the bowels of Google to find that. Where he and Mercedes Schlapp leaned into their faith to get them through that
A
when they pray the gay away is that they were praying the gays away.
B
I mean, it's just. It just seems to be a feature. It seems to come up. And here's the thing I want to talk to you about, Don.
A
Can I ask you both one.
B
Yeah.
A
Imagine I. We do this all the time. I said, if this is Biden, imagine if it was a Democratic group doing that, what they would say about that group.
B
Non consensual grabbing. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, I don't think it would go
A
over very well with the Republicans and if that wouldn't go over well with the Democrats, because I. I believe the Democrats would be the first Swalwell out.
B
Hit the bricks.
A
Cancel him. Hit the bricks. And then Republicans would be talking about it all day long on Fox News, and Donald Trump would be talking about it. All of them would be doing it. But nobody's saying anything about Match Life. I bet you he appears on all the conservative shows on Fox and Newsmax and all of those things.
B
He does Hannity and whatever he's able to. He's a sexual predator. He grabs left and right without consent.
A
Is he a predator? Is he alleged predator?
B
Alleged predator. And he still is able to go on all these shows with impunity. But let me ask you this. This is something important to talk about. So I believe there is a sexual repressed problem within maga. But I also think we have to be cautious not to say they're all closet cases or they're all repressed, because a lot of them are just broken straight men. Like Ted Cruz, he's just a broken up, wannabe alpha male who likes porn on 9 11. Remember that tweet when he liked that porn tweet? So a lot of them are just broken straight man. And so I want to be cautious because I don't want to paint the LGBTQ+ community because sometimes I do lean into that too much, like all these old queens or these DL demon queens. But gay people out of the closet. Gay people have so much bravery and have been through so much and are proud of who they are and faced adversity. What's your take on all that? How we word that and, and not use that as an insult?
A
Well, we have a certain, you know, eq. Right. Or I iq, an intelligence quotient and also emotional quotient. Right. Because we've had to deal with it for so long. And so all. Everything about us is out there. So they, they think, the straight people think that by that being gay or calling someone gay or trans or whatever is bad. And we already know it's not bad. And most of my gay friends have been married forever. They have kids. Their family unit is more. What do you call? Homo. Normative. Heteronormative.
B
Yeah.
A
Than. Than, you know, than heterosexuals.
B
Yeah.
A
And so we're whole people. They're not. Because of the repression. They, they, you know, religion, guilt, all of those things are telling them they should not be who they are. And who they are is a bad person. If you act on this emotion, if you act on this urge, if you act on this natural thing, a thing that's natural. And also, just because you have sex or you're doing a sexual act with the person of the same sex, it doesn't make you gay. I think in some ways it makes you human. And if you do it and you're like, not my thing. I don't think you're gay. I think you're like a normal person. Just like when people are growing up, they experiment and they realize, well, I'm here on the spectrum. I'm here on the spectrum. And it's not a big deal. And it shouldn't be a big deal. We should get out of people's bedrooms and out of their personal lives or sexual lives. But the Republicans are so obsessed with it that they make it a. And if they weren't, all those people can be doing what they're doing, flying their freak flags, and nobody would give a shit.
B
Yeah, like, I wouldn't think it was any big deal if Ted Cruz, when he liked that porn tweet on 9 11, which was, you know, I think he would have been more of a patron it that day and taking the day off from porn. But whatever. But during Ted Cruz watching that porn, if he happened to orgasm during a scene where the penis.
A
I do not need that in my head.
B
I know, but I have to complete this thought.
A
Oh, my God.
B
If he happened to. You know what, when the camera was zoomed in on a penis. I don't think that's the worst thing about Ted. I think Ted, that's fine. The worst thing about Ted is he's an unlikable, unfuckable.
A
That's the problem. That's why he's watching porn. I did not need that image in my head.
B
Sorry. That was mean. That was homophobic.
A
Look, there are whole studies, though, about watching straight porn and what guys are looking at. And they do the studies, and usually they're looking at the wiener. Yeah. And every guy has a. Guys, stop pretending you're uncomfortable around wieners. Everybody has one. You're not uncomfortable around.
B
Well, and here's the thing. I. We're kind of heading away from politics right here. But I just want to say this right here, I, as a straight woman, can say I really don't like a dick pic. Do you like a dick pic? Nobody likes a dick pic.
A
I'm not. It's not my thing.
B
Right. Men.
A
I'm not opposed to it, but it's not like something. Nobody sends me dps. And I don't, you know, I'm. I'm too old for that shit. But. And I'm there. I'm an old married man. But if someone wants to send a. A D pick, I think that's a dick pick. I think that's fine. Yeah, right. That should. That's your business. As long as it's consenting adults and everybody's of age. Right. Legal.
B
Exactly.
A
But otherwise, it's not a big deal. Unless. Unless you're getting, you're receiving or giving pictures, are sending pictures of that and you're supposedly straight, or you are, you know, creating legislation that is anti lgbtq. Yeah, that's an issue. Otherwise, I don't give a.
B
All right. Speaking of family values, I want to bring your attention to this next story. Pop this up. Natalie Harp.
A
Oh my gosh.
B
The human is a. Yes, the human printer. She is a 34 year old executive assistant to the president. Compiles screenshots of social media posts from allies or fans praising the president, bolstering familiar conspiracy theories, condemning Democrats or insulting Trump's opponents for the president to review. The Wal Street Journal reported. Once Trump approves the content via physically printed out drafts, Harp goes onto the president's Truth Social account and posts them often during off hours, such as late at night, over the weekend, or even on holidays. And what's so disturbing about this to me?
A
Don, can you put that back up? I'm going to read the last part. Once Trump approves the contrary physically printed out. Okay, so they're not together in the same room doing this?
B
I'm afraid they are often during off hours. This is what I was about to say. What disturbs me so much about it when I wake up in the morning and I see that he's been on a 50 retruth, or as I call him, rely tear.
A
Oh boy.
B
I think he's alone. The fact that somebody who is 34 years old is there enabling this psychotic behavior is really more disturbing to me than him doing it alone.
A
Can I ask you a question?
B
Of course.
A
At that hour, are you. Is your husband up tweeting?
B
No.
A
So where's Melania?
B
Well, I think she hates him. She's probably like, natalie, you blow him. I don't want to.
A
Oh my God. So I was just saying, clearly, I mean, he's not doing this. Laying in the bed tweeting while Melania is sleeping.
B
Well, let's see, it says that reports reveal she want. She once went so far as living in the ladies locker room at his Bedminster Golf Club for more than a month just to stay close to him. After she was shut out from normal accommodations, Harp has reportedly written gushing letters to Trump saying things like, you are all that matters to me and she only wants to bring him joy. And for the longest time, I thought Trump needed to be in a padded cell in a straight jacket. And Natalie Harp Says, hold my beer,
A
bring him joy. Yeah.
B
So I just.
A
What does that mean, bring him joy?
B
It's, I mean, it's completely insane. It's completely ins. That he has somebody. All of these sycophants around him. And this 34 year old girl, young lady, that's nuts. Okay?
A
She's. I mean, look, she's 34.
B
Yeah.
A
She's grown.
B
She's a grown woman. Yeah.
A
But for him, it's probably right up his age. It's probably right up his alley. But for, you know, to him, that there's a significant age difference, which is okay. But look, he's married. He's the president. It just sounds weird. I, it, it's making me think. I know, it's. I know we don't know what happened, but it's making me think of Monica Lewinsky. Yeah. It's a, it's a weird position to be in. Even if nothing is going on, it just seems inappropriate.
B
It does seem inappropriate. And I also, my brain goes to. I wonder if Natalie Harp gets jealous when like Trump is at the UFC fight and he walks up to the fighter and he's like, you look so good. You have too pretty of a face to be fighting out here.
A
You're too good looking.
B
And he's patting him on this. I wonder if that makes her jealous.
A
You think he's the gayest president we've had?
B
I kind of do.
A
I mean, did you have. You say he wears makeup?
B
Do you see when he was blaring Phantom of the Opera out of the White House?
A
Yeah, but he's wearing makeup. He's ymca. He's doing the double jerk off dance. He's telling people they're beautiful. He loves good looking people. And he's always like these big handsome guy, big muscular guy, came up to me, handsome, just so good looking.
B
Gave a microphone a blowjob on the Sir.
A
Oh, yeah. When he did the thing with the microphone and he goes, sir, sir, thank you so much. I love you for saving this country. And it's like, wait, what? I mean, seriously, YMCA is the gayest anthem ever. Yeah. And I hate, like when it comes on now, I'm like, oh, God.
B
I know, I really.
A
And I love that song.
B
That song.
A
I know. And then, but like whenever, if you're anywhere near a red state or people, they get up and they start dancing and doing the double jerk off dance. And, and that is. I'm like, I gotta get out of this bar. It's fucking disgusting.

B
All right, we're going to close out this episode with a story out of my home state. And we had an insane school superintendent. His name was Ryan Walters and you'll remember this guy because he wanted to get all the Trump Bibles, put them in all the schools, and then he spent an inordinate amount of time in his car filming tick tocks, talking about gay, gay people, trans people, and porn. I've never seen an alleged straight man so obsessed with pornography, gay stuff, and trans stuff. Let's play one of the clips to
A
try to silence me and censor me. I've been under attack for listening to parents and being a voice for parents bringing transparency to schools. From the beginning. From the beginning, as I started to shine a light and hold those accountable who were pushing porn in our schools, the teachers unions came out attacked, attacking me, trying to silence me. The radical LGBTQ plus groups have been targeting me, and recently, they found their champion in Mark McBride, who agreed to partner with them to try to censor me and weaponize legislation against my agency. All right, why is he so obsessed with that?
B
That's a big family values guy, and this is one. This is a drop in the bucket of this guy sitting in his car, talking about gay stuff, trans stuff, the Bible, and being a victim. Like all of that wrapped in one. Well, this story dropped this week. Pop this up. Republican Superintendent Ryan Walters mandated teaching Christian values in school, including the obligation of marital loyalty. He's now divorcing his wife. I wonder why. Did you.
A
There's a lot of. And he's like, they're coming after me. I'm just saying, look, why do you need all that? If you have marriage vows, why do you need another commitment on top of that? Unless you're so prone to cheating that you have to put up another hurdle. Right. In order to. Another commitment for you to be. To either yourself or the other person to be faithful. Why? Something's up.
B
Totally.
A
But when someone like that. Look, if someone does what he does, it makes me think they're gay. It makes me think they're in the closet. That's because usually that is the case. I don't know about him. There's a lot of, you know, there.
B
Find that picture, Kylie.
A
But, you know, that's a lot.
B
And I just think, you know, for his wife, if I. If Josh, my husband, was sitting around talking about gay sex all the time, trans issues, and then acting like a victim all at the same time, I think I would just be like, josh, do you need to go. Do you need a Grindr account? I mean, what's going on here? If Tim. If your husband was just sitting there talking about heterosexual sex all the time, do.
A
Can you. You want to go get a girlfriend? You want to get a.
B
Are you not happy here? Why are you so obsessed with the Straits?
A
Well, the Straits are more obsessed with gay sex. Oh. Oh.
B
So there's Ryan Walters right there.
A
And somebody said, wait, which one is it the white.
B
Look at this hand on the thigh and the flip flops. Interesting.
A
Isn't those shirts, though? Anyways, I said what I said. But, yeah, they are more obsessed with sex, gay sex than gay people are. I don't talk about gay sex with my friends as much as straight guys or these guys. These. These Christian guys talk about.
B
I have been hanging out with gay men since I graduated from high school, and obviously I have hang out with a lot of straight people. I have never heard so much discussion about gay sex as I do for MAGA people. And this goes back to our point. Democrats need to offense on this because they get in these positions where they're playing defense, like, oh, we really shouldn't talk about the bathroom issues and transports. You're talking about four people, four athletes. Shut the up. Why are they so obsessed with genitalia? Why are they so obsessed with gay sex? Why is Ryan Walters got some guy's hand on his thigh and then as a side hustle, is in his car talking about the LGBTQ people are targeting him.
A
He's got to go out to his car and then he has to make sure that the child seat is in the back. You know what I mean? It's like, come on, dude. We see through what's happening. But I do think, to your point, that Democrats need to be more targeted, so to speak, on. On their messaging, especially as it relates to all of these things that have. Has to do with. That have to do with child sex crimes. They should be pointing that out, but they're afraid to talk about it for some reason. They're like, we don't want to talk about that. We have. We have bigger, more important issues. That's not going to work anymore. No, people want someone who's. People who are going to fight back and point out the terrible things that's happening on the other side because they're attacking liberals, Democrats, trans people, LGBTQ people, all kinds of people. And they don't care, I think so that Democrats should care and do it
B
more than anything are fighters.
A
Yeah.
B
We want fighters that will fight. I mean, to the core. Like, I get so mad when I find out that Chuckles and Hakeem are playing patty cake with the same donors that are funding fascism. And I think we just need fighters.
A
We need people who are going to stand up to the bullshit and not. This isn't, this is not politics as usual. This isn't 20. This isn't 2020. It's in 2016. It's definitely not the 90s. And sometimes I feel like Democrats are still in the 90s with Bill Clinton or in the mid 2000s with Barack Obama. And this is completely different.
B
Completely. Don Lemon, thank you for joining me. It's always a pleasure. I think we were moderately good. We did get a little you.
A
I mean, you said the C word.
B
I couldn't help it.
A
You said cork. You said, you know, cork, like caulk, the cork gun.
B
I'll have Kylie beep it.
A
I love you.
B
I love you. Thanks for joining in studio.
A
Thank you.
