The state auditor in the nation's copious state AKA California is calling out its own governor as high risk. Also out of Colorado, the illegals who don't get federal tax money for their health insurance are going to lose their health insurance if there's no federal tax money that they don't get for their health insurance. Also, the Clintons have been subpoenaed and there is an impending fight in the Congressional committee to headed up by James Comer on whether or not the Clintons will actually have to testify. It's been going on for months and it's really interesting to see how that is playing out. All that more coming up on this episode of Turning Point Tonight. My name is Joe. Bob, thanks so much for tuning in. Together we are charting the course of America's cultural comeback. This is Turning Point Tonight.

The hack is, and I feel like I have to explain this like once a week. Just type in Joe Bob, J O B O B. It is a weird name. One grandpa was Joe, the other one was Bob. And as weird as it is, it is advantageous in order to be able to search for anything Turning Point Tonight related on our social media platforms, including the One Last Point podcast that only airs on social media because we shouldn't have time to talk about all of the things that we want to talk about here on Real America's Voice. So go to our Turning Point Tonight social media accounts and get all of the Turning Point Tonight show here as well as an additional segment each and every day. We start to net tonight in California again, the nation's poopiest state and the state that's being overrun by homeless people even though they spent, what, $25 billion to stop homelessness and it went up. But that is not what we're talking about right now. The California state auditor came out with a report labeling eight different agencies within the state of California and as high risk, including the governor himself is coming out of the California Globe. Katie Grimes reporting. All of those designations of high risk for these eight individual agencies as well as the governor himself only get that designation if there is a presence of waste, fraud, abuse or mismanagement. And I know that that probably comes as a shock to many of you watching at home. California has waste, fraud, abuse and mismanagement. I, I was shocked as well. But it's not even coming from a conservative outlet. This is these internal states audit saying, hey, bunch of red flags here. Now they go down a list of all of the different departments. We're not Going to get to all of them. But I think one of the big ones that we should highlight is the COVID mismanagement. Yes, we are still talking about COVID money. California received about $285 billion from the federal government over two years. The state of California said that, well, all of that money kind of just kind of went away. We don't really know what happened to it. And in Covid, specifically with COVID funds, the state auditor came up with, like, 80 different recommendations. And lo and behold, about 25% of those recommendations were just never implemented. We just ignored them all. We're not going to implement those. Who cares? There's only about 13% of that $285 million that is. Sorry, billion dollars that is left. All of the rest of it's just kind of, I don't know, floating around, gone effectively at the cost of the taxpayer, and in this case, the federal taxpayer, which is you, regardless of what state you live in. Again, this is not a conservative media outlet reporting on this. Well, I am reporting on the report that the, the internal California state auditor made. But of course, that is not the only agency that has been subject to waste, fraud, abuse, or mismanagement. The unemployment department, edd, the Employment Development Department, says that also added to the high risk list for 2023 inadequate fraud prevention. During the pandemic, the unemployment department in California had a bunch of missteps that led to billions of dollars in payments that were later determined to be potentially fraudulent. So I can't find a job, says Timmy. Okay, here, here, says the government of California. Here's a bunch of money for you to stay home and not work. We're not gonna check whether or not you're actually lying to us. We're just going to give you this money because corruption is our name. Corruptifornia, what we affectionately call the poopiest state of the country. Uh, the healthcare services auditors also identified discrepancies in Medi Cal regarding the eligibility of people who are on Medi Cal who probably shouldn't have been because they make too much money. And also the payments being made to, to the hospitals providing the medical services that were necessary. Uh, says about $4 billion in questionable payments, like, oh, hey, Jim, noticed you sprained your ankle. We'll get that taped up with a nice old Ace bandage. Uh, that'll be a million dollars to the California medical system. Uh, fraudulent payments, questionable billing goes on all the time, and everybody kind of just turns a blind eye to that. We'll skip down a couple because we don't have time to get to all of these. But one of the big things is the water infrastructure crisis in California. California has not built new water storage in 50 years. Now that matters because if you live in California or if you're familiar with California, we are constantly in a drought. We must conserve water. You can only water your lawn on Wednesdays and every other Thursday for only 15 minutes because we have to conserve water. Also, we are not gonna do anything to conserve and save water in the state. California has more than 1200 jurisdiction dams that require safety oversight. A number of the dams are deemed unsatisfactory conditions which has increased by 73% since 2023. In other words, the state that cries we are in a drought, we need to save water, does not put any actual money into saving actual water by way of dams, water storage, all of these different things. I continually say I refuse, I refuse to follow the state watering guidelines or water usage guidelines until they take it seriously themselves. But the biggest probably in the fraudulent state of California. Again, this high risk designation put on by, by the state auditor for these eight agencies and the governor himself is the food stamps program. California Department of Social Services were also added to the high risk list due to payment error rates and recent federal law changes saying hey, you can't, can't just make any of these mistakes anymore. You actually have to audit yourself to make sure that this money isn't going to nothing. California could be required to spend as much as $2.5 billion annually to maintain its already bloated and already overspent food stamps program. Now all of this is to remind everybody that California is a godforsaken, corrupt, fraudulent hell hole. We all know this, but we also should all be aware and if you're not aware already, should be. The governor of the state who was put on this high risk list from the state auditor is running for president. We all know this. We should all be aware of that. And the lib media is continuing to pretend that Governor Newsom is growing by leaps and bounds in popularity. Politico recently had an article calling the favorability rating of one Governor Newsom to be surging. Gavin Newsom is surging among his constituents. Well, the California Globe also pointed out that yes, this surge of popularity of favorability for Governor Hairspray is 2%. I don't know if you get to call that a surge. It's just to me, I feel like a surge should be at least 20%, maybe 15, maybe even 10. But I don't, I don't Think you get to say a 2% surgeon. Hey, babe, I just got a 2% raise. You know, my wife would say, okay, is that really a raise? That's not even keeping up with inflation. Maybe you should go renegotiate. It's not really a surge, if you ask me, but the media continues to push Governor Hairspray as their favorite to win the DNC nomination for president. Now, one of the things I think we should all be aware of, and I actually experienced this yesterday. I'll talk more about the. The. I did a. I did a roundtable. I guess it was called a debate, but it was this whole thing with a couple of libs yesterday. Actually, really fascinating experience because it kind of proved what the libs kind of consistently do. They throw out useless numbers. Well, the HBCTQ score is actually up 27%. You're like, I don't even. What. That means nothing to me. And I almost guarantee you it's a lie. Um, Governor Newsom continues to do the very same strategy in the state where he is surging by 2% and is also on the high risk for fraudulent mismanagement of taxpayer funds. In other words, bad governance. Here's a clip from Hannity actually, a couple years ago of Gavin Newsom doing that exact same thing. Thrown out a bunch of useless, meaningless, probably lying statistics to try and bolster his great job that he's doing in the Poopia State. Watch this. I believe this is cut 7. In 2021, California had 7.8% of GDP growth in this country, one of the fastest growing economies anywhere on planet Earth. This state continues to be the tent pole of the American economy. 25.6% of all American jobs came from this state in April. In the last two fiscal years, we enjoyed $177.7 billion in operating surpluses. We're on our way to be the fourth largest economy. Eat your heart out. Germany in the world, number one in R and D, venture capital. More scientists, researchers, more Nobel laureates, more patents emanating out of this state than any other state in America. With all due respect, Florida doesn't even come close. Eat your heart out, Texas, California continues to be the dominant economic engine. Now, Hannity, for his sake, did say, he finishes up and said, hey, I told you I'd give you long answers, give you a full answer. Opportunity for a full answer. Which is what he did, even though his answer didn't really do anything. What we're trying to say here is that we are about to witness the greatest gaslight attempt of the American people. I think that has ever taken place. The libs and the lib media are going to try to get gaslight, everybody in the country into thinking that any of those numbers that he just spouted out have any actual meaning. He says the 25% of all jobs are in California. Yeah, California is the biggest state by population. That just. That inherently is going to happen. Of all the quote, unquote, job growth. Yeah, dude. That the numbers are that California just has what, 43 million people if you don't count the illegals. If you do, you probably talking 80 million people. I don't know. I don't know how many legals are in California. He then says we are operating at a surplus. Okay, yeah, you were operating at a surplus in 2020 when the federal government gave you a freaking quarter trillion dollars. Every year since then, you've been operating at a deficit. California's recent deficit last year is $55 million. A lot. Sorry, $55 billion alone. So look, libs throw out these crazy statistics and pretend that they mean something when in actuality they don't actually have any basis on what is actually happening in the state. California also says we are the fourth largest economy in the world. And that's true. But again, they have the biggest population of any state. Bigger population than a bunch of the countries that they are competing against to be the largest economy. And California leads the way in highest percentage of people who are working for the government. If you factor in all of the government workers in California at the state level, all of the contractors, all of the local level, like teachers, firefighters, police officers, and I'm not really even trying to denigrate any of those people. Yeah, you're going to have, quote, unquote, economic jumps. But also, if your state is operating at a budget, hiring more people, and then claiming that, look, our economy is booming, you're. You're robbing Peter to pay. Paul, I, I don't get to say if I give my kids an allowance, I'm giving my kids a $5,000 a year allowance. Well, that doesn't add to my household income. It's. It's just the money that's recirculating and it doesn't actually mean anything. The bottom line, the thing that I'm trying to point out here is, is like I said, we are about to go through the greatest attempt to gaslight the American people into thinking that Governor Newsom is doing a fantastic job. Like I said, I had a lot of experience yesterday with throwing out statistics that mean Absolutely nothing and pretending they have a point. What I propose is that conservatives stay as high level as possible. And anytime these statistics we had this percentage of the jobs. Yeah, you have this percentage of the people or we had a surplus because the government gave you money. Oh yeah, we're the first largest economy. Yeah. Because you have a bunch of government workers. Anytime that happens, we strictly point to the fact of do you think California is doing a great job? And that could probably get through to pretty much anybody who may be on the fence of Governor Newsom but also any of the other deep blue governors that could take a shot at at the 2028 election. Do you think Minnesota and their billion dollar fraud, Tim Walls is doing a good job? Do you think Kathy Hochul in New York, probably also a gubernatorial candidate, is doing a good job? Do you think the streets of Chicago are safe with Brandon Johnson? Do you think that Illinois isn't racing to become the first state to declare bankruptcy with California because the federal government will probably bail out the first state that goes into bankruptcy, but not the second one? Do you think that's a good thing with J.B. pritzker? No. You don't need to dig in to the useless and meaningless statistics that are probably lies when libs try to throw them at you constantly. Just stay high level and say all right, cool, throw out all your statistics, Gavin, go for it. Think, pretend that those things actually 1 are true and 2 matter and let the American people decide whether or not they want California to be the benchmark for the United States of America. My guess is that you ask anybody who is obviously on the right, but even the moderates go, I'm not buying that because that's the truth. At the end of the day you can throw out all of your fancy meaningless lives of numbers, but reality bats last. And the reality is that California, according to their state's own auditorium, is at a high risk for fraud, waste, abuse and mismanagement of your dollars. Meaning it is poorly run and everyone knows it. Coming up, we're going to talk about the illegals who are going to lose their healthcare, which they're not getting if the federal government changes their policy because, well, they weren't getting it to begin with. But Calorado actually, interestingly enough, was was giving it to them but they're not getting it. So I still not entirely sure how that squares. And also the Clintons getting subpoenaed over Epstein and Congressman James Comer is not letting them slide at least up to this point. They've been offering a bunch of different things trying to avoid getting subpoenaed. But it looks like at least at this point, Comer's going like, nah, you guys are gonna come in to testify. It's gonna get really interesting.

Leave this up for a little bit if you're watching the podcast or sorry, listening to the podcast, not watching the video, it is a priest outside of a church who is opening the door for parishioners and not for the screaming homeless lady who is trying to also go in to now I the where I found this. The caption on this is what a metaphor kind of alluding to the fact of like yes, the church only cares about the people that go to the church and not the actual community which Jesus would abhor. I agree with the priest right here. There is a place and time to help people and I agree the church should do everything in its possibility to everything in its ability to help the people who need help. Nobody is arguing against that. But there's a place in a time also. You have no idea what this lady is saying. I ate a knife and my son in law's niece is an aunt and he was killed by rain because the. The firefighters were eating my teeth. I don't know, I don't know what she was like but I, I trust that priest's discernment there. And also too I don't know, I don't know if this is sacrilegious but put this in the perspective of Jesus. He's. He's given the sermon on the mount. His blessed are the poor in spirit for the kingdom of heaven is theirs. If somebody was off yelling to the side I ate 16 pineapples and I don't know where my left toe went. And my grandmother, he'd probably be like not the Tyra place. He probably wouldn't do that. Maybe his disciples. We will try and help you out as best as possible. But it's not, not right now. I don't know that that's just how I feel about it. I think, I think there was a bunch of backlash on this, this priest, this church like you're supposed to be helping and I'm sure, I hope that they do, you know, just not at mass and she want issues willing to go in and sit and listen to mass. Great total do it. But that doesn't look like what's happening here. I, I agree with the priest on this one. You know who I don't agree with is the Colorado Public Radio. What a transition that was. Uh, there was an article that came out about a week ago, two weeks ago about Colorado. There is a program for illegal immigrants who aren't getting facts taxpayer dollars from the federal government for their health care according to everybody on the lib side. But because the federal government policy has changed now the illegals are not going to get health care which they aren't already getting. Try to square that one. I wanted to first play this clip from Senator Schumer, one that I'M sure you've all seen all heard, but is definitely pertinent to this point. I believe this is clip 8. Can we just play this? 12 seconds of the total BS coming from the lib side of the aisle regarding illegals getting health care. Watch this. We're not pushing to give health insurance to undocumented immigrants. That's a lie. It's been proven to be a lie over and over again. But he doesn't care. He just keeps restating the lie because he's so afraid of the truth. They are not pushing for illegals to get health care. Also, an article from Colorado Public Radio. Thousands of illegals in Colorado could lose their healthcare subsidies that they're not getting because libs aren't pushing that. Okay, I'm gonna read a lot of this article. I want to read the bullet points that we've created for this article. Colorado created Omni Salud to help. I'm gonna say illegals. The article says undocumented immigrants. I'm gonna say illegals. Illegals to get preventative care and reduce uncompensated hospital costs. The program is funded by fees that health insurance companies pay to the Health Insurance Affordability Enterprise, which is a Colorado based system slash agency. And the article then makes the point. There are no federal funding that is used. This program, this department, this agency within the state of Colorado, no federal funding is being used. However, the new policies are going to affect the funding that we don't get. I guess the program has grown incrementally. In 2023, it enrolled 10,000 illegals, expanded 11,000 in 2024. This year it is 12,000 slots. And because this doesn't need to be said, but they make the point in the article that these slots go like that. Anytime the slots are open, a bunch of illegals who don't get health care that we pay for fill up the slots for the program that doesn't exist. But according to this article, there is a federal policy change that may eliminate the subsidies that the illegals don't get for their healthcare. Congress, they say, refused to extend enhanced tax credits on healthcare exchanges. And in the big beautiful bill halting the program's growth in Colorado. Why? Why would that matter? If there was no federal help, why would that actually matter? This decision fulfills a Republican promise to reduce money spent providing health insurance to immigrants. Now, they say immigrants, obviously it's illegals. They like to conflate those terms. But we're just going as Colorado Public Radio says, uh, House Speaker Mike Johnson stated. Yeah, you, you get it. You understand? Uh, yes, they are getting healthcare from federal tax incentives or money. Because of the federal policy changes, Omni Salute will only be able to offer fully subsidized insurance to little more than half of the people that were scheduled to be on the list in 2026. In other words, 5,000 illegal immigrants will still be able to use this program, but because of federal cuts, they won't. But they're not getting federal cuts because Schumer and all the other libs said they're definitely not getting healthcare. It goes into, like how they actually put all of this stuff together or what actually happens. It's gonna be a random lottery system who gets, actually, who gets in. Then they have a bunch of sob stories of Vuela's clients used to have a 90% success rate when applying for the program. Now that will only be 55%. All of that stuff that the whole sob story thing is in this article. But of course I decided, well, where is this government funded thing, the health insurance affordability enterprise within the state of Colorado, getting their money? Because remember, the whole premise here is that. No, no, no, no, no. It's the state. The state of Colorado has set up a system because we have decided in our good hearts as Coloradans, we are going to give health care to illegals with a state program. Okay, so you set up this entity. Where does that entity get their money? Where does the health insurance affordability enterprise get their money? Well, up to 77. Up to 70% of it comes from the federal government, so there's that. Now, again, the article claims. Well, I don't know. There's no federal money actually going into this, but obviously that neglects the point that money is fungible. Look, if I give. Let's. I'm using my kid here, okay? She's not old enough to buy anything, but let's just say she has $20 in her pocket and she wants to buy something. Let's just say popcorn. I don't know. Movie theater popcorn is unbelievably expensive, but different conversation for a different time. She wants to buy a movie theater popcorn with her $20 and I give her $20. And I say, do not buy movie theater popcorn with this $20. If she just switches out the bills and buys the popcorn, she goes, I didn't use your money to buy popcorn. I used my own money. Yeah, but I gave it. We understand the circular effect of fungible money. So then to say that. No, no, no, no. None of this money is actually being used to fund illegals but also the program that props it up in the state. 70% of their money comes from the federal government. Nobody buys that and nobody should buy that. It's ridiculous on its face. And the entire time where libs were saying we do not stake any of our claims on getting health care for illegals is just a flat out blatant lie. The money goes in a circle. You don't get to claim that you're not using any of my money to do the things that I expressly don't want that money to be used for is not very difficult. But again, Colorado very, very concerned. Colorado Public Radio very concerned that the illegals may lose the health care that they don't get, according to them. Coming up, Epstein inside the fight to avoid testifying on a House Epstein inquiry. The Clintons are trying really, really, really hard to not testify. And it is a really interesting story on how they're doing that. Uh, that this article from the New York Times. So there's going to be a little bit of biased on there, but I'm going to try to remove any of the lib bias that is clearly in this New York Times article. But we'll, we'll see how it goes. Tbt.com if you want to send along your thoughts, comments, concerns where what are your state, state programs that are federally funded that give health care to illegals that they don't have in your state? Hopefully it's none. If you live in a, in a red state, that's probably zero. But if you live in states like California where they do this circular money thing consistently, I would imagine that that is the case. Tptbusa.com send us along your thoughts comments concerns.

Would I survive one hour living in the 1800s? Would I have to turn butter?
- [33:00]
B
Where? What do you mean? You say 1800s. 1800s where? In the United States? In which case, what part of the United States?
- [33:08]
A
Oh, I'd have to be a slave.
- [33:10]
B
No, no, no, no, no, no. You don't have to. Gabby, that's.
- [33:14]
A
I didn't even think of that. I was thinking about treading butter and chopping wood.
- [33:19]
B
Gabby, Gabby, Gabby, Gabby. You're not inherently a slave just because you are black in the 1800s. That's not what that means. Yeah, but it means most likely.
- [33:29]
A
Okay, hold on.
- [33:30]
B
No, no, no. You're here in Kentucky, which means, also, again, it is split because technically speaking, yes, it is a slave state. So you could be. You also could be.
- [33:39]
A
I would not survive. I'll answer my own question. I would die.
- [33:46]
B
Isn't that the dynamic of a husband and wife? Wife asks this broad blanket statement thing, would I be able to survive in the 1800s? And all of a sudden the husband is taking it unbelievably seriously. That's at least what it's like in my house. Tptpusa.com if you are one, the wife that kind of issues a blanket hypothetical, kind of expecting, like, I don't know, maybe. We'll see. And all of a sudden you, your husband, or if you are like me, the husband that goes. Well, let's actually look at the parameters of that. Okay. 1800s. Depends where you're living. If it's in the United States, depends on north and South. Even in the south, there's some, like, that's. That's just like classic husband this. I think in my. At least in my household. Speaking of husbands, the husband of the former Secretary of State, I. It's not air quotes. She actually was a Secretary of State. She's also a senator doing everything in her power to get to the presidency, which she did not. Thank God. Talking about the Clintons, Hillary and her husband Bill have been subpoenaed to testify in the Epstein inquiry. In big ol Oversight Committee hearings. Representative James Comers, the chairman of the Oversight Committee, has been locked in. This is, according to the New York Times, a month long, months long battle with Bill and Hillary Clinton over the Epstein investigations. And Comer, I don't want to bury the lead, but some of this actually gets pretty interesting. And what actually could happen has threatened to hold the Clintons in contempt of Congress proceedings if they fail to show up for an in person appearance. Now, what has been happening, I'm going to summarize this because there's actually another video that I do want to get to a little bit later on. So I want to just keep this concise. I'll summarize. Basically, there were a couple of people subpoenaed. A couple of those people were able to give written statements, written testimony, and the committee was like, yeah, that's fine, that works. In the case of the Clinton specifically, Congressman Comer is saying, no, no, I want you guys actually here, their attorneys, the Clinton attorneys have been saying, no, no, we'll give you a written statement. And Comer says, no, no, no, I don't care about a written statement. I don't want a written statement. And then they sent him a written statement. There's like, no, no, I want you guys here. I want you to testify in front of Congress. And the Clintons go, no, no, we, we want, we, we want to do a written statement. They sent him another written statement. He goes, no, no, this is not, you don't get to make this up as you go. Clintons, I think they're obviously trying desperately to not actually have to take testify. But Comer now has since said, well, he may be looking to hold you in contempt of Congress if you don't actually show up. And that has been a thing that especially libs used to weaponize their political position over several of us conservatives. Um, there were several, several friends of the show who did jail time because they were held in contempt of Congress for not wanting to testify. So I wonder, will that be the case for the Clintons going forward if Comer gets his way? Um, just for the record here, criminal contempt charges carry maximum sentence of one year or and a fine of up to $100,000. The deadlines are later on this week, I believe Wednesday and Thursday for the Clintons to either appear or schedule a testimony for early January. The New York Times also points out that this would be historically out of character. It would be out of the ordinary. If Bill Clinton were actually forced to testify, they say it would be unprecedented. Okay, well so then we just don't do it. It's funny how libs say anything that's unprecedented. That means, oh, we should, we shouldn't do that.
- [37:26]
A
Okay, fine.
- [37:27]
B
It's unprecedented. It was unprecedented when all you folks arrested a former president on a bunch of excuse the pun, trumped up charges and decided to do all of the legal shenanigans that you did. So yeah, we are living in unprecedented times. That's not an argument for why it shouldn't happen. No former president has appeared before Congress since 1983. Last time was Gerald Ford who testified in 1983. Um, there's, yeah, there other, other details. But again, I don't want to dial in too much to that because I do think there's more interesting things to get to later on in the show. So we'll leave time for that. But Let us know. TPTP USA.com do you think that the Clintons are eventually going to need to testify? What do we think about the deadlines? If they're either got to show up or schedule an appearance for January. Do you think that that'll actually happen? If so, I don't know. You think it'll be behind closed doors? You think Comer is going to stick to his guys? There's just a bunch of different things, bunch of different variables. I would love to hear your thoughts whether they're going to be able to wiggle their way out of this like they have for pretty much everything. Tptposa.com Send us along your thoughts.

Hey, where are you? I'm in the women's section. I told you I'd be in the women's section. That's where I'm at. I'm in the woman's section.
- [41:03]
A
I've been here for, like 15 minutes.
- [41:07]
B
Where are you? I cannot see you anywhere. I get it. I get it. The joke is that he's in the cleaning section because his wife told him that I'm in the woman's section. She meant clothes, but he is looking at, you know, dishwasher materials, soaps and brooms and stuff. I get the joke. It's funny. You know what? Well, it's funny, but also in. In his defense. Well, I don't even. Pretty much all I think they were in a Target. All of Target, in my opinion, is the woman's section. Like you say, I'm in the women's section. Okay, so what part of Target is that? The. The entire store is catered towards women. There are several funny viral videos that depict a husband. The worst thing that you can do to your wife is order things from Target and have them delivered to your car. So you go to Target, you park in the spot, and then they bring you what you need no, no, no, no. I want to browse. I know you do. And that usually costs me a lot of money. So. No. So yeah, all of Target is the women's section. Speaking of Target and women's section, this is what I wanted to get on. There is a video going around of a Target employee who is wearing the appropriate Target colors. Red shirt, khakis, doing her job, hanging up clothes. Seems like a hard working American. I don't know anything about her, but seems like a good, honest, hardworking American. Somebody comes up and decides to start berating her because the red T shirt that this woman is wearing, this employee of Target, is a Charlie Kirk shirt. I want you to watch this. And in you know, your own understanding of how really these sorts of interactions go almost every single time, think to yourself, how is it that libs somehow get away with being the kind and tolerant people when in almost every single instance, the libs are the ones that are speaking. Speaking of yesterday, trying to rage, quit a table discussion or get super mad or lose their temper, he how do they get to come off as one? We are the party of tolerance and we love everybody. That never seems to be the case and it definitely is not in this clip. I believe this is Glenn cut 11. A woman working at Target wearing the red and khaki. But also it's not okay because the red shirt is a Charlie Kirk shirt. Watch this. Why they let you wear that shirt? Shirt?
- [43:49]
A
Yes.
- [43:51]
B
Why are you taking my picture?
- [43:53]
A
Why are you wearing that shirt? You're working.
- [43:56]
B
Red shirt. I can wear red, any red shirt.
- [43:59]
A
It's not a plain shirt.
- [44:01]
B
It doesn't have to be.
- [44:02]
A
It's a Charlie Kirk shirt.
- [44:03]
B
Yes. Oh yes, I know. Are you fucking stupid? No.
- [44:07]
A
Why the would you wear that? You're at work at Target. That's not a Target shirt. It's not a plain red shirt. You support a racist.
- [44:17]
B
It's not racist.
- [44:19]
A
You support a racist.
- [44:21]
B
He's not a racist. Yes, he is. Yes, he is. I'm sorry that.
- [44:25]
A
I'm not going to stand here and argue with you.
- [44:27]
B
You're not. You should go get your manager.
- [44:28]
A
You should not be allowed to wear the at work.
- [44:31]
B
Unacceptable.
- [44:32]
A
Unacceptable.
- [44:34]
B
That's your opinion.
- [44:35]
A
The opinion is he's a racist and you support him.
- [44:38]
B
That's your opinion.
- [44:40]
A
You should not be allowed to wear that. This is going to be taken above your head.
- [44:45]
B
That's insane. So how, how indicative is this of pretty much all of these interactions? By the way, this woman again likes Charlie because most patriotic Americans do. Wearing a shirt calmly Says, I don't have to argue with you, I don't have to discuss this with you. She does the exact same thing that you should do. Kill him with kindness. Because if you continue to kill them with kindness, they get mad, they lose their freaking minds because they think, well, all of these terrible, horrible, fascist, bigoted conservatives, they're just the worst people in the world. And when they do have an interaction with us and we're smiling and we're polite and we politely say, I don't need to have this discussion with you, the things that you believe are not true, I'm gonna go ahead and walk away. I'm keep doing my job. That's what really, really grinds their gears. That's what really gets them angry. When you don't take them as seriously as they take themselves on the lies that they believe, that's when they lose their temper. I'm a big proponent of smiling and laughing off a bunch of lib arguments. Not because I don't think they need to be dealt with, but because I think they have been calling, calling conservatives racists. Charlie specifically is ridiculous and idiotic and it honestly doesn't even deserve a response because of how stupid it is. I think that was perfectly handled by that woman, I believe, I think I saw on X Andrew Colvette producer Charlie Kirk shows trying to reach out to that woman and see if we can get her some fun stuff. So. But yeah, that's, that seems to be the case over and over and over again. Libs lose their mind as the tolerant, loving and accepting people that they are. Great. It's a great, it's a great clip. It's horrible clip, but it's also, it's great to see people out there who support this country, who support Charlie and are just willing to say, see you, have a nice day. I don't need to argue with you. Speaking of things to argue with, I wanted to get this on and this, this, this might just be my own personal animus towards single payer health care. Health care for all. Everyone should have health care. This is a clip of. I don't know who this guy is. I don't know where he's running, I don't know what congressional district. I do know it's Iowa, but he says something and I want to leave the video paused here so we can get a great look at this guy and I'll describe it. If you're just listening to the podcast, this Glenn is cut 9 some dude getting an endorsement. Endorsement doesn't matter. It's what he stands for that I think is hilarious and horrifying and has a greater point. Watch this. Cut nine. Hi, I'm Stephanie Steiner, candidate for Congress in the fourth district. And today I'm offering my endorsement to Ben Shower because I value education. I demand health care for all Iowans regardless where they live. And I want to revitalize our rural communities. These are super, super important for our district, super important to me. And I know Ben is the guy to get them done. Let's get him elected, guys. First of all, I am shocked that that smaller woman was not pulled into the orbit of the planet sized person that she was standing next to. And yes, I will say that because the point here is that his main is second thing, I will make sure health care for all. Okay, fine. You don't get to be that. In my world. In a world where I am footing the bill, I am subsidizing the healthcare of everybody. Which if I were a betting man, unfortunately we seem to be trending down the path to inevitable single payer health care. If that is the case, that's not allowed. If I'm going to have to share medical bills with pretty much everybody, you don't get to be that sorry. And I understand that that's, you know, weight is a, is a thing that people struggle with. I'm not trying to denigrate those people. I'm trying to say is policy wise. If you're going to force me to pay for the health care costs of people who are unwilling to take care of themselves, I refuse to do that. I will be on the front lines of making it illegal to treat your body like that. Because I'm the one that's going to be confronting the cost for that. Look, again, I, I understand obesity is a big problem, weight is difficult, I, I get it. But the only way that you're allowed to do that sort of thing is if you have a free and open market system. And we don't necessarily, we have a, we have a much more socialized system that I'm comfortable with. But if we go full blown single payer healthcare for all. Nope, sorry dude, forgot your name. What is it Ben? Don't get to be that sorry. That's just the reality. We'll be right back with the mailbag segment. TPTP USA.com if you'd like to send along your thoughts, comments, concerns, even criticisms of the show, of myself, of my wardrobe, whatever. You want to send criticisms up, go ahead and do it. TPT tbsa.com we'll be right back after the break with your emails. Don't go away.

Apparently that is a live look into the house of Joe Biden, not who's trying to nail some. Is that somebody knocking on the door? I feel like. I feel like whenever Joe Biden passes a mirror, he goes, oh, hey, good to see. Oh. And it's very confused. He probably freezes for a couple seconds and then realize, oh, this is a mirror. And then moves on, saying hello to himself. Let's get to your emails. Tptvsa.com is the email address if you'd like to get mentioned again. Make sure your email is vile, bigoted and disgusting. It'll fit right here. Feel fit in right here on the show. Terry says this just thinking out loud. New policy in the Congress and Senate. No hats, headdresses, jobs allowed. Men are always required to take their hats off in a courtroom, at a dinner table. Why are women allowed to wear hijabs? Religion? Nope. And then he says, well, what if my religion requires me to wear shorts in Congress? That. That's a good point. I Don't. I actually do think that is a denomination that I've heard about. It's the Unigalitarian Universalists. I think that do mandate their. Their scriptures mandate shorts. So go ahead. Yeah, that's a. That's a fair point. Yeah, just go ahead. And by the way, I think that was the case up until, like, Ilhan Omar got into Congress. I think they made an exception specifically for her. I could. I could be wrong on that. But yeah, Terry, good, good idea that if we can't deport her, let's make her. You know, let's see. In the. Speaking of Ilhan Omar, on the topic of cash shipments to terrorist organizations, bunch of the fraud that went on in Minnesota got sent to Al Shabaab. Richard says this, and why don't we treat the cash shipments over to terrorist organizations like drug boats, just blow them up. That's a good point. That'd be a good point. Doing the same thing. Edward, on the topic of freaking France, surrendering their ability to assemble, in my opinion, says this canceling their event shows their weakness and the conquering effect of leftist violence. And I think it was a bad move. Things will get worse in parents Paris. They are conquered, and that fuels the leftist movement. Yeah, that. That's what I think too. Canceling the show was a sign of weakness. I don't care if you needed half the country to be there on watch, you know, all of the police, all of the French military, which I'm not even sure if they have a military. I don't know, they surrender everything anyway, so. But also, yeah, I think it's a bad move to cancel that event. And Edward seems to agree. On the topic of way too high of a percent, 91% of college students think that language, speech should be violence, which is crazy. He says this. One of the first rhymes. Paul says one of the first rhymes I learned in kindergarten is, sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me. Has everyone forgotten that? Yeah, Paul, it feels like they have. Have school boards today banned the rhyme from being taught in public schools. That wouldn't surprise me. That wouldn't surprise me either. That's a. That's a good point. Jim and Darlene also say effectively the same thing. Sticks and stones to break my bones worth never hurt me. Or they also say, you know, same sort of thing. Treat others as you would like to be treated. He said, I'm 57. I hear that. I've heard that growing up throughout my entirety. Yeah, that is a. That is a big problem. I don't know that kids are being taught that in public schools. Sorry, government schools. I don't want to use the terminology. Oh, it's a pub, it's a public good that our students are indoctrinated. They hate the country that they has afforded them the right to an education. No, it's a government school because remember, everything the government touches goes wrong. What is the Ronald Reagan quote like? If you put the federal government in charge of the Sahara desert in five years, they'd be out of sand for summer. I think that was Ronald Reagan. I could, I could be mistaken. We're having fun. We're heading towards Christmas. America Fest is this weekend is going to be a fantastic event. America Fest. I'm I'm obviously we wish Charlie was there, but very excited to to get together with a bunch of like minded conservatives to try and fight the left as best we can.
