how to make hosting look effortless? Here's a secret. Getting ahead of the mess with new Reynolds Kitchens Countertop Prep Paper Just lightly wet the counter beforehand so the paper grips and stays in place. Then lay down the Reynolds Kitchen's countertop prep paper so drips and spills stay on the paper, not all over your kitchen counter. You can roll out dough, prep a party spread or cook alongside family. When you're done, cleanup is as simple as lifting the paper and revealing that clean counter underneath. Effortless. You can use it for cooking and baking prep and even crafting, especially when you need extra working space. Because when the mess is already handled, you can focus on what matters.

Joe Bob
We can make work a better place for healing. Learn more and sign the pledge@workingwithcancerpledge.com who the heck is Ms. Rachel and why does she matter? Well, she is a very, very powerful, very, very well known YouTuber who is also a communist. Speaking of communists, California's sanctuary policy, which progressives are so so proud of, is making it more difficult for law enforcement to track down child traffickers. Oh that, that's not great. Also, United Airlines is going to allow you to lay down in your seat for a pretty penny and as long as you are under 4 foot 6, all that more coming up. My name is Joe Bob. Thanks so much for tuning in. The show starts right right now. I remember a time growing up when children's programming, the biggest controversy around it was, well, I don't like this particular dance that Barney is doing on this episode. I'd rather him do a different dance. Nowadays in the modern age of YouTube, unfortunately the controversies have grown to full blown Communism. We'll discuss Ms. Rachel and her very, very powerful YouTube platform as as the new admission that she's now made public. TBC TVSA.com is the email address. If you'd like to send along your thoughts, comments, concerns, even criticisms, all of those are welcome@tptp USA.com Remember, if your emails are just nasty, downright vile and mean, you actually might have a better chance of being read here on the show because that is the descriptions that have been used to describe the show by several progressives to so of course that would fit great with what we do here on the show. Our mailbag segment coming up at the last segment of the day, tptpsa.com if you'd like a chance to be included. Also, one quick reminder, I will be in Anaheim, California April 16th at the Freedom Comedy Night in Anaheim. Tickets are available if you'd like information on that event. If you live in Southern California and you like to laugh, tptcpc.com Send us an email. We'll send you any of those details. Also, keep your eye out around the country. I think we're going to be doing a lot more comedy shows. I think I'll be at the University of Idaho April 28, if my memory serves me, with Michael Knowles and Matt Walsh. But separate, different thing. That's a TPUSA thing, not a comedy night event, even though we will laugh there. But if you need any information on where I will be, where TPUSA will be, let us know tpt@tpusa.com and we'll forward all of those details to you. So who the heck is Ms. Rachel and why is she making so many headlines? Well, if you don't know who Ms. Rachel is, congratulations. Honestly, I wish I were one of you. Unfortunately, I am the parent of two young kids and so Ms. Rachel, although not allowed in our house, is somewhat ubiquitous in the community of parents with toddlers. If you don't know who she is, she is a massive YouTube content creator, specifically for kids content. She's got 10 million YouTube subscribers and over the years she's amassed billions of views. Not millions, not tens of millions, not hundreds of millions. Literally freaking billions. She's known, or at least her viewers know her as warm and inclusive. For all of the little she does, all of the typical children's content creation stuff, she uses puppets. She uses very, very annoying voices, which some people call soothing, but those people are clearly deaf. She also has positioned herself to be the modern day Mr. Rogers. Somehow, I'm not entirely sure if anybody's buying that, especially considering if you don't know this, here's a nice fun fact for you. Mr. Rogers was a lifelong registered Republican. So again, I'm, I'm not sure how that actually tracks, but that at least how she is trying to portray herself to her audience. All of these things, warm, kind, inclusive, soothing, exact, only exist on her YouTube account. On social media, it's completely the opposite. On social media, she has now decided to engage in the politics of the day, the news of the day, and take political stances. Except for the fact she's never explicitly said that until now, which we'll get to in just a second. Up until very, very recently, Ms. Rachel never explicitly said, hey, I'm engaging in politics. She's never said, I want this political position. I am a political figure. And therefore it's. It's been somewhat difficult to attack her, even though there have been several signs which conservatives have pointed out over the years. Several of those signs, unfortunately, have been very, very subtle, which again, because she hasn't taken like an explicit political position or at least said, I'm engaging in politics on this particular issue. And because of that, these subtleties kind of go unnoticed. And when conservatives complain about it, we, you know, get called for politicizing everything. And unfortunately, several parents who are not as engaged don't recognize it. Here's one of those examples of Ms. Rachel talking about pride. This is cut 15.

Joe Bob
She has never explicitly said, I'm engaging in politics, but she has put out videos like that. She also has a character as a part of her cast named Jules, who is a they them, which is, of course, what kids should be taught and shown. She also celebrates all types of families, including illegal families, which again, doesn't make them inherently a bad family, but it does make them breaking the law, so that would be a problem. She also made headlines a couple of years ago for inviting Dylan Mulvaney onto her show, although there isn't any actual video of that show happening. Maybe she filmed it and didn't air it. I'm not entirely sure. There is that idea that, hey, we should invite the guy who ruined Bud Light for everyone. So there's that. Now, more recently, Ms. Rachel has, in a way, ditched the kind of ambiguous, subtle hints at political ideology and taking a much more prominent approach. Earlier this year, she appeared in a video with the Islamic Communist mayor of New York City, whose name I don't know how to pronounce. And just as a side note, in case you've watched the show for a long time, I'm always open to submissions as to how to pronounce his name. Tptpusa.com with any of those new pronunciations of the Islamic Communist mayor of New York City. But again, earlier this year, Ms. Rachel put out a video with him. Cut 16.

Joe Bob
Hello, friends. Hello, friends.

Martha Stewart
The mayor on the bus says, hello, friends. All through the town the money on the bus goes clink, clink, clink.
- [10:33]
Joe Bob
The buses are going to be free, though. That's so wonderful.
- [10:36]
Martha Stewart
But this is like my song, and the kids like to do it.
- [10:39]
Joe Bob
Clink.

Martha Stewart
Okay. Actually, I have another one. Okay.
- [10:42]
Joe Bob
Yeah. I have another one.

Martha Stewart

- [10:45]
Joe Bob
Where, where, where, where, where aren't the babies happy about?
- [10:49]
Martha Stewart
They're so happy. Actually, the parents are really happy. But this is, like my big hit. I need to.
- [10:54]
Joe Bob
This is your show.
- [10:55]
Martha Stewart
Okay, let's go.
- [10:57]
Joe Bob
Now, since the premise of this sketch is things that don't work because of the brilliant new policies that the mayor can actually get passed and are actually bad for people, since that is the premise, I'd like to offer a suggestion for a verse that would actually make sense in the context of the New York City transit. So it goes like this. The homeless on the bus go. Stab. Stab. Stab. Stab. Stab. Stab. Stab. Stab. Stab. You could probably figure out the rest in your own head. Now, what that is is an example of a YouTuber who, again, has never said explicitly that she's engaged in politics, engaging in politics, which is the most dangerous for YouTubers. But creators alike, what they do is they push the boundaries of political ideology. They bring in certain political ideology that they agree with and nothing else, even though they're tolerant. Tolerant. Uh, and then they. When they're called on it, when there's pushback against what it is that they're doing, as we so often do, they retreat back within their own safety net of. Or. I'm just. I'm just. I'm just a children's YouTuber. I'm just a creative. I'm not actually. I'm just a musician. And then they do it again. They push the boundaries just a little bit. Hey, let me welcome the Islamic communist mayor of a city onto my show. And then when there's pushback, they go, no, I'm just. I'm just a content creator. That's all it is. Which has been the same for Ms. Rachel up until now. In a very, very recent interview with NBC regarding the detention facility in Texas that Ms. Rachel is now fighting to close, which. Which we'll get to in just a second. She actually finally came out and said, hey, no, I actually am very political, which I honestly think is. Is great news. I want to read you this quote, and interestingly enough, there are a lot of things in it that kind of obfuscate what is actually going on, and statements that I probably would agree with. But we'll. We'll get to the. Picking a part of it in just a quick second. To an NBC interview, she said this. I am political. It's political to believe children are worthy of love and care. Which is true. I agree with that. I think we probably disagree on how we define those things. But I agree with that statement. And maybe it's intentionally ambiguous and that every child is equal. Again, I agree. What does that actually look like in practice? And that our care shouldn't stop at what we look like. Agree our family, agree at our religion, religions are different, we don't need to do belabor on that point. Or at our border, which is kind of piggybacking on the broader case that she's making that, well, immigration facilities are bad. Specifically in this context, this Texas immigration facility that she is calling for the shutdown of is very, very, very bad. Now there's a couple things that are going on right here. One, she's entirely misunderstanding what immigration detention facilities are. Uh, are there kids in immigration facilities? Yes, and here's a kicker. I also don't want there to be kids in any sort of detention facility. However, where our disconnect is is the necessity for enforcing the law. Just because somebody has kids doesn't mean that they're exempt from the law. And unfortunately, we've let so many illegals into this country and so many legals with kids that you have to enforce the law. And part of enforcing the law means detaining families. Which again too is also a problem with libs. Regardless of how you do it, if you separate kids from their parents who are doing illegal things, you're separating families and you're the worst person ever. And if you keep them together, you go, why are you incarcerating children? Okay, well, we're just enforcing the law. My point is there are a lot of variables here. And even on top of that, what I think Ms. Rachel fails to recognize is what you're doing is promoting perverse incentives. If for some reason we advocate, and by we, I mean her, if, if her policy is accepted, the advocating for, no, no, no, immigration detention facilities should be shut down because there are kids involved. If that is the case, well, that just incentivizes illegals and the people facilitating those illegals to have kids. Go with the people. I mean, it's kind of been an age old strategy. But what it's going to result to is child trafficking, which is terrible. If you incentivize by way of being lenient, if somebody has kids, you're going to incentivize the cartels to kidnap kids and send them with people who've paid them a lot of money to get into the country because they know, hey, if you have kids with you, we'll let you go. But the bigger, broader point, obviously that's specific to this particular situation. That Ms. Rachel is very, very hot the trot about. Specifically the broader point. Sorry, the broader point is this engaging in politics is something that she hasn't done explicitly. Like I said, she's pushed the boundaries and then retreated back with this admission as, I don't know, inconsequential as it may seem, what it actually does is allow conservatives to push back with the full force of our arguments and rhetoric. Because way too often conservatives get, I don't know, demonized for politicizing everything. And while some of those things are necessary to be politicized, I understand the criticism. And unfortunately for those people who aren't exactly super attuned with what's going on in politics, that sort of argument works. And conservatives do politicize a lot of things because a lot of things are worthy of being politicized. And the pushback on that is, why do you guys politicize everything? In this particular context, Ms. Rachel will continue to push out progressive ideology. She will continue to try to indoctrinate kids to push communist ridiculous progressive propaganda and try to get the world to look like what she wants it to look like, which is terrible for a bunch of other people. But we won't get into the disastrous outcomes of her ideology. And yes, conservatives will continue to push back, but with the admission of Ms. Rachel saying I am political, it kind of clears us from being labeled as cast as people who just politicize everything. And no, she's now putting herself in the political ring. And I think that's fantastic. The reason being is because if anybody's going to take up the progressive mantle, the last thing I want is a smart person. What I actually want is a bunch of people like AOC, like Jasmine Crockett, like Ms. Rachel to carry that mantle. Because I believe that with our arguments and our rhetoric, we can easily dismantle their arguments and their rhetoric. Now, of course there, there is a gamble to go here. Practical politics would show that, hey, sometimes, you know, you pro promote somebody else on the other side that you think you can beat handily. And it doesn't work in this particular case, there's no actual election. This is literally just a culture war. But what I think and what I believe and what I am betting really everything on is that the American people aren't stupid. I believe that we are a center right country. And when child YouTube stars that are pushing communist propaganda insert themselves in the political realm of, I believe that the American people are smart enough to recognize that. Now, does that mean she's not going to gain ground in the lib progressive base. Now she's of course going to gain ground. But at the same time, if we continue to have a majority of sane people in this country that reject the radical inclusivity of accepting and tolerating things that are clearly damaging to not only people, but to kids, if we have a majority of people that reject that sort of stuff, I believe ultimately it is a good thing that we will no longer be labeled in this particular circumstance of politicizing everything. I think it is a good thing that Ms. Rachel has opened herself up to the political ridicule that is necessary to stop the communist propaganda that is going into way too many kids heads via a very, very popular YouTube channel. And what I would hope is that this sort of thing provides the opportunity for conservatives to now create content that celebrates the country that we live in, that celebrates traditional conservative values and that doesn't put the country on a trajectory that will cause the entire system to fail. TBT tbsa.com if you'd like to send along your thoughts, comments, concerns, criticisms even. What do you think about one Ms. Rachel? I don't know. Have you heard of her? Is this, is this like ring, Is this relevant to what it is that. Well, okay, that's, that's the wrong question. This, a hundred percent is relevant. Was this on your radar? Uh, it's relevant because billions of views is something whether you like it or not. And whether you like or not, this is something that we've got to confront as a conservative movement, especially those who have a ton of influence now engaging in our political system. I also do think it's, it's, it's going to be a good thing, hopefully if, if my bet is right that the American people are center right and will continue to be so I think it's a good thing. But let us know your take. TPTP USA.com is that email address. We'll be right back after the break. Getting to a lot of the points of the day on get to the Point. We'll be right back. Don't go away.

I think when you're diagnosed with cancer, you crave a semblance of normalcy and control. And so work allowed me to be me. So I think it's really important that companies stay flexible. Cancer in a diagnosis can be all consuming, but it doesn't have to be.

between the ability to continue to work and cancer recovery. We can make work a better place for healing, learn more and sign the pledge@workingwithcancerpledge.com. I am torn on how to feel about this sort of stuff. On one hand, you see lots of people who desperately, desperately need to exercise and they are at least doing something. And on the other hand, if you were to design the least effective workout of all time, I don't even think you would be drastic enough to come up with this. Hey, let's put a bunch of big balls in a bucket and then hit them with sticks. All right, I'm going to save you all the diatribe of exercise and working out and whatever the hell this is because we got a lot of points to get to. A lot. A lot of stuff going on around in the news of the day. A lot of points to get to. Let's get to the point, get to the point, get to the point. All right, we're starting off with the blunt reality of war. This is from the New York Times, but also is not inaccurate. Again, I want to preface this. I read the New York Times. Our team reads the New York Times to save you from having to read the New York Times and to punish ourselves for our sins. But mainly there are, there's some good. There's some reporting that comes out of there that is, that is true. Even though we dislike the opinions of the New York Times and the slanted New York Times has. Anyways, this is just one of those things that are just happening and we got to confront and we got to wrestle with and figure out what we think about this. Around 2,000 US paratroopers to be sent to the Middle East. The Pentagon has ordered approximately 2,000 soldiers from the Army's 82nd Airborne Division to deploy to the Middle east to provide President Trump with additional military operations options amid the ongoing US Conflict with Iran. I would love to Hear your thoughts. TPT tpusa.com in this particular instance, I am still on the. You know, I'm trusting the president and the process. What I think one of the best analysis of the overall Iran war that I think is very, very, very poignant. And again, I'm trying to look at this as like, what is actually happening as opposed to really the hard opinions from both sides of things. One of the think the most fair assessments that I read was. Let me see if I can get the wording right. It was the, the, the war is much more difficult or. Sorry, yeah. Much more difficult than the Hawks wanted and much more necessary than the doves wanted. Meaning that all of the folks that were like, yeah, we don't actually need to go to war. The Obama administration type, the Iran deal type that were like, ah, this is completely, entirely unnecessary. What we're finding out is this is actually way more necessary than those folks needed. And then on the other hand, on people that, you know, we would generally politically align ourselves with, there's the thought of, hey, this is gonna, we're, you know, this is, this is great. And it turns out it's, you know, not a walk in the park. And I don't think anybody really thought it would be. Uh, but the bottom line is there's, there's pragmatism going on. And my hope and my belief is that the president has that pragmatism at heart and is, is doing what's in the. The best option for the American people by dismantling one of the most vile threats in the U.S. yeah, that we'll we'll kind of see how that plays out. TPT tpsa.com if you have any thoughts, comments, even concerns here. There are already roughly 4,500 Marines in route. This is going to bring the total of troops in that area during Operation Epic, Epic Fury to about 7,000. So again, hopefully diplomacy works. But Iran's. One of, one of the biggest problems I think we've noticed with Iran is you kind of assume that figureheads, people in power of these like crazy extremist radical states are just exploiting the radicalism in that country in order to maintain power. But I think we're finding out that the Iranian leadership actually believes all this stuff, which again, it kind of plays to the point was how this is much more necessary because they actually believe it. Like, I think one of the biggest revelations I think I had was when I read something, I forget where it was, but basically outlined the idea that, that Lenin and all of the leaders of communist Russia actually were communists and actually believed it. Stall and Lenin, they actually believed their process would work, which is, which is again, weird because it's like, clearly it won't work and therefore you have to think that those leaders are like cynical politicians that are trying to maintain power. Same thing kind of applies in Iran, but the problem is they actually are. The leadership actually appears to be radical Islamic extremists, which would be an argument for the necessity of everything President Trump is doing. All right, again, big topic, lot of stuff there. Don't always have time to get to every little intricacy. T Emails tptp USA.com if you have any thoughts on that. Number two point. Number two, this from CNN Lib. Emily Gregory flips the deep red Florida House district that includes Mar a Lago. The libs are making a massive deal about this. I, I don't want to say, I don't care, but to say that this is like, this is a bellwether. This shows the direction of the country. Now it's a, it's a special election in a state legislative body. Like, yeah, okay, it, they flipped the seat. But I, I just, I refuse to believe that this is like a pure, solid, directional election as this is special. Special elections, if you don't know, have horrible turnout really everywhere. And special elections almost always benefit the party who's not in power. So obviously President Trump is in office. Conservatives have both houses of Congress. Florida too. Florida is a conservative governor. You got DeSantis over there. And all I'm saying is that special elections, very low turnout and the people who do turnout are generally the people that are voting not in power. And so libs are making this, like, a big deal. Like, ooh, what does this mean? Honestly, probably nothing. And again, I don't wanna dismiss it because, you know, all seats are important, but, you know, to pretend that this is like, ooh, Donald Trump taking one on the chin, it's like, it doesn't. That's. Nah, that's just not true. It's not factually true. Um, but anyways, it happened. And libs are making this a massive deal, and it is not coming on to California things that actually matter. This from Breitbart. California mayor says that state leaders protect child trafficking by migrants. Okay, what does he mean by that? This is actually super interesting and super pertinent to the immigration debate and discussion. Uh, El Cajon Mayor Bill Wells has sharply accused California state leaders and the Attorney General, Rob Bonta, of effectively protecting child sex traffickers by enforcing sanctuary policy, which. So sanctuary policy means that, well, immigration can't coordinate or do anything with local law enforcement. Um, he says that under the sanctuary bill, or SB54, it prevents local police from conducting welfare checks on unaccompanied migrant. Immigrant, illegal. Why does even Breitbart use the term migrant? I still don't understand that. Unaccompanied migrant children flagged by federal authorities. In other words, the feds say, hey, this is a problem right here. Maybe, like, we should, like, check this out. But because local law enforcement at the state level in California can't. It is illegal for them to communicate with the Feds, which, by the way, is totally unconstitutional. Supreme Court needs to rule on that, but they haven't yet. So technically, currently, it's still illegal because they can't talk to the feds. They are like, all right, I don't know. I don't know. California, very, very stupid. Um, there's a little bit more to say about that, but that's basically the gist of it. California's sanctuary policy doesn't allow the feds to talk to local law enforcement, and therefore, the local law enforcement isn't able to do welfare checks on unaccompanied migrant children, which, yeah, inherently would include those children who are being trafficked, which is awful and disgusting and unfortunately, the consequence of ridiculous progressive policies. Speaking of ridiculous progressive policies, moving on to this is. These are all down. I'm. I'm glaring at producer Glenn. These are all downers. He says, well, that's just the news of the day. And he's right. This from Fox 32 in Chicago. PRITZKER says the Loyola student Sheridan Gorman's killing was due to real failures. Which is the line that libs are using to try and blur this, even though it's clearly and squarely on lib policy. One at the federal level, prior administration for letting a bunch of illegals into the country and libs currently at the federal level trying to block any attempt to remove those illegals from the country and the local law enforcement who just sure criminals just let him out of jail. But this is J.B. pritzker's attempt to blur those lines. The same way he blurs the lines between a sit down meal and a buffet. Governor Pritzker acknowledged real failures in the nation's immigration system and crim criminal justice system after the fatal shooting, the horrific fatal shooting of 18 year old Loyola student Sheridan Gorman last week by an alleged undocumented illegal immigrant from Venezuela. Correctly, conservatives are blaming Pritzker in Illinois sanctuary state laws, which is true if all of this turns out to be accurate, which it very much appears to be. And JB Pritzker is trying to blur those lines. But even in that process, considering he's probably running for president in 2028 and trying to appease the far left progressive vote, he also blames Trump. In several quotes he says there are national failures. A failure to have comprehensive immigration reform, a failure of the President to follow his own edict and go after the worst of the worst. Now my, I mean the obvious take there as well, okay, the guy who's murdering 18 year old college students is the worst of the worst. Maybe if libs weren't holding up the government because they don't like the worst of the worst being sent out of the country, they actually would have made progress in sending out the worst of the worst. He then is then blaming immigration for not act, which again is the whole thing is crazy. I think the only takeaway should be here is something that we all know. Libs lie. They lie a lot. That's kind of the whole point of being a lib. Because the way that you want to see the world, your ideology doesn't match with human nature. The only option you have is to lie. And when lying doesn't work, then unfortunately they result to violence. Now I'm not accusing JB Pritzker of resulting to violence, but that is what the libs, the progressives down on the lower rungs ultimately end up doing. And that is the tragic problem that we continue to have in this country. All right, finally, not a downer story. I don't Even necessarily know if this is a good story. United Airlines introduces the relaxed row economy seats that convert into a couch for international flight. Now, this has been a thing in multiple airlines for a while now. We took our daughter to Hawaii a couple years ago and I believe there was this option. Basically what they do is they take this, the, the seat, the row of three seats, and then they put like a, it's not a couch. I mean, because effectively the seats without anybody in it is a couch. But then they put like a little like they're, they're, it's parallel with the seats so that you can basically lie down in there. The relaxed row will be added to the new 2027 Boeing 787s and 777s and will expand to 200 of their other planes by 2030. And it'll just basically make it so that families can put their kids in those rows. Of course it's going to come at a great cost. And if you want to do it on your own, the chances that you actually are going to fit in this seat. Oh, there you go. You got a picture of it. Look at that. Nice, nice parent snuggled up with a kid. Until you realize how small those seats actually are. And anybody over the height of five, four is gonna go, I don't fit in this ridiculous. What did I pay this money for? So in other words, fair warning. It's probably the first time we've ever done an article from People magazine, possibly the last. But that is something. It is interesting. Airlines trying to figure out ways to get people to like flying, which has just become a disaster at this point. All right, hey, there's a lot of points, a lot, a lot of points to get to. Up next. Coming up, my favorite part of the show is official business. When we talk about the official business that officials are conducting in the business that they are doing, they're conducting, I try to make those as tongue twister as possible. Sometimes I even twist up myself. TBT. TBSA.com is the email. We'll be right back after the break. Don't go away.

Okay, that is what I call a pickle. What do you do in that situation? You just keep walking. Well. Well, what do you do? I don't know. Fun, fun, fun. Video to break up the. The. The monotony that is the downness of today. I'm sorry for that. I apologize. I know it's late at night. You're looking for a little bit of some lighter take on the news of the day. But hey, we're gonna have to get back into it. Uh, lots of points being made, right? No, not points. Official business being conducted by officials in their business capacity. Both elected officials and appointed morons. Sorry, Officials doing what is called official business. All right, first up here in official business is one of those, George Soros backed DAs. This case in Philadelphia, one Larry Krasner talking about ICE agents that he's threatening to arrest and charge with local crimes. I guess I, I don't even know. But it basically is he's just threatening federal immigration enforcement because he is a communist socialist crazy person who thinks he has more power than he actually does. This is cut six. This is how it works. You commit crimes within the jurisdiction that is the city and county of Philadelphia. I prosecute you. That is how it works. No, I don't take a phone call from the president saying, let him go. No, the president cannot pardon you. I'll say it again. The president cannot pardon you. And yes, I will put you in handcuffs and I will put you in a courtroom, and if necessary, I will put you in a jail cell if you decide to make the terrazzo floor of this airport. Anything like what you did in the streets of Minneapolis, which involved the criminal homicide of unarmed innocent people, we are not having that here. Now, I would imagine, considering this is still an ongoing investigation, but he says corporation criminal homicide, I would imagine that those ICE officers that are at the forefront of that current investigation of what's going, what happened in Minneapolis have a really solid chance of suing for defamation, especially since it's coming from a government official. Now, the problem with those kinds of lawsuits is considering he's speaking from official government capacity, my greatest fear is that the taxpayers are going to pay whatever settlement it is, and which is terrible, but I think they'd have a pretty good case against that very, very crazy person who is echoing what Congressman Hakeem Jeffries was saying is that, hey, ICE at the airports, they might kill you. Because that's a normal, totally hinged thing to say and a totally rational and normal thing to think. Speaking of rational and normal lives are doing, just jumping in hoops trying to figure out how to get themselves out of this shutdown mess that they put him in. Put themselves in. This is Representative Josh Gottheimer, who's talking about. Well, it's just ridiculous that the government is shut down. I can't believe that this is happening. Fun fact, though, is he, he actually voted for it. So this is cut seven. It's ridiculous. You know, this is not. We can't. Everything can't be. Well, we're not getting along. We're going to shut parts of the government down and not only hurt the people, the workers who are still showing up every day and, and, and protecting us, many of them trying to get second jobs, third jobs. You know, I've talked to them, trying to figure out how they're going to pay their bills. Guys don't make a lot of money. They're just trying to make it work and pay their rent. I mean, I guess so. So what is the plan is. Is what he thinks is the viewer is just too stupid to recognize where the shutdown came from. And unfortunately, in so many cases, not. Obviously, people that watch this show, he might be right. He might be able to do something and then call that thing terrible and awful and blame the other people for doing the very thing that he did. That's kind of like standard par for the course in the lib playbook. I hope that doesn't work. But the irony is, is amazing. It's astonishing. This is ridiculous. I can't believe the government is shut down. By the way, I voted to shut the government down. The uninformed voters in this country are, unfortunately the only people that lives tend to cater to. Speaking of libs catering to the uninformed folks in the country, here is New York live. Representative TOM so talking about amnesty, hey, if you were illegal when President Trump came in office, you, you should just be able to stay here forever and just, you know, be a, be a, be a United states citizen, effectively. Cut 8. If you've been here since President Trump became the President on January 20th of 2017, you've been here since that time, and you haven't committed a crime.

deported, or we don't and we deport those folks. I'm just, I'm just saying that's, that's just another option, too. Right? We don't have to do those things. Even if you say it very, very poignantly and very affirmatively and authoritatively. We can do this sort of stuff. Yeah. But we also don't need to. So there's also that. All right, wrapping this one up. This is the last one, and I only want to play this. I'm going to make sure we get to this because I think this guy has a very, very good shot at becoming the DNC nominee for president in 2028. This is Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro pulling, pulling a trick from the old Gavin Newsom playbook. Watch this and we'll discuss. I believe that government can be a force for good in people's lives, by the way, otherwise I wouldn't be doing this work. At the same time, I've also seen how too many of these governmental institutions have failed. Too many people. That's what I want to know. How do you think the Democratic Party has failed? I think we have failed to deliver tangible results for people. Now, I recognize that he's talking about the broad Democratic Party, but what Gavin Newsom does is what I think he's trying to replicate. Governor Newsom goes on in California and says, wow, look at all the homelessness and the violent crime and wow, we need to do something about this.

He has been in public office for over a decade and says, wow, geez, somebody's got we gotta do something about this. This is crazy. A lot of this happened under your watch, dude. Just, I mean, comes back to the main point that we've made so many times on this show is that unfortunately this stuff works on an uninformed public. What are you going to do? I don't know. Keep yelling about it until some of these freaking independent libs start paying attention. Because I think our only hope anyways, lots of official business. There are several that we didn't get to, but I want to save some time for Woke Wednesday as of course it is the national holiday that is Woke Wednesday. Coming up after the break, don't go away.

Ever wonder how to make hosting look effortless? Here's a secret. Getting ahead of the mess with new Reynolds Kitchens countertop prep paper. Just lightly wet the counter beforehand so the paper grips and stays in place. Then lay down the Reynolds Kitchen's countertop prep paper so drips and spills stay on the paper, not all over your kitchen counter. You can roll out dough, prep a party spread, or cook alongside family. When you're done, cleanup is as simple as lifting the paper and revealing that clean counter underneath. Effortless. You can use it for cooking and baking, prep and even crafting, especially when you need extra working space. Because when the mess is already handled, you can focus on what matters. The food, the people, and the moment. It may look effortless, but now you know. It's Reynolds Kitchens countertop prep paper. Take a tip from me. Wet it, set it, prep it, done. Make it easy.

What do you say, 675 bucks for 120 months? Dude, that's 10 years. You're paying off a 2019 kind of lower grade Mercedes for 10 years. The car is seven years old. You can pay $81,000 and be paying it until 2036 for a car that's already seven years old? Holy crap, man. What do you do with this deal? This is. This is why I'm such an advocate for, like, this guy, whoever. This guy, this poor guy. Is going to get to retirement and go, I don't have any money. And he's going to be old and he's going to be like, I need government assistance. And I'm going to be like freaking you. You don't deserve it. Why should my money go to help you? Who made this? You could, you could buy four of the cars that I currently drive for that price. All right, sorry, it's, it's woke Wednesday. So let's, let's get to it. It's woke Wednesday. All right, I gotta update that zinger. Wait, all the other fun zingers. We got that, that one's, we've been using that one since the very beginning. And I like to get some new ones in the rotation. All right. Up for woke Wednesday. I don't even, I don't even need to set this up, really. This is Congressman Sarah McBride. She don't give no Fs. And by she, I mean he don't give no Fs about women. And by women, I mean anybody participating in girls sports. Cut 10. And I think on various issues we can acknowledge that there's room for nuance. We can acknowledge that people have, for instance, on the topic of sports, very understandable concerns about fairness and, and respect in school sports on, on all sides of these issues. And the place that those dynamics are best able to be handled is at the local level with individual athletic associations that understand the sport and the science the best. Not 435 politicians who know very little about school sports and even less about trans people. Yeah, but the thing is they know a lot about reality. They know a lot about the very thing that everybody has known for the last, I don't know, however many years you think humans have been on this planet. Several thousand years. I also too love that. Yeah, this is a very important. But we shouldn't talk about it should be since winner libs advocating for local control, except for for a topic that everybody agrees on that they don't want the federal government to step in on because then it would eliminate the possibility of your super progressive crazy people and crazy locales to actually implement. All right. Which leaves enough time for this. This is very exciting. Not going to set this up. This is a. Well, sorry I said I'm not gonna set up. I'm not gonna belabor on it. Set it up. Briefly, this is a. An argument on the floor of what looks like the Maryland legislative body when somebody is advocating for putting tampons in all of the bathrooms. There's a very. One funny point here, but I'll explain that after the clip cut 11 menstrual
- [54:12]
Martha Stewart
hygiene products means appropriately sized tampons. What are appropriately sized tampons? I've never heard of such a thing. What do you consider appropriate?
- [54:27]
Joe Bob
It just means that tampons are offered there. No specific size?
- [54:32]
Martha Stewart
Well, apparently there's four different sizes. So which one would you like them to use?
- [54:38]
Public Podcast Sponsor
Just a regular sized tampon in the bathroom.
- [54:41]
Martha Stewart
Okay, maybe it should say that and not appropriately sized. Tampa. Now, is this going in all bathrooms? Men's and women's?

Well, if it applies to the Raven Stadium, it would also apply to Orioles Park, I guess.
- [55:12]
Joe Bob
Pimlico. The funniest part about that is effectively by default, this legislation would put tampons in an NFL locker room. Like I the NFL, NFL players and like MLB players talking about Oriole park douches. All of these professional athletes are going to have tampons in their bathrooms if this bill passes. Okay, this is one of those laboratories of democracy. There's a part of me that kind of wants this to get through to show the rest of the world how ridiculous it is, or at least gain attention. Not necessarily get all the way through to show the rest of the world how ridiculous the ideology is so that we can continue to make arguments against it. All right. Tptpc.com is the email address.

I just I have to believe that God has a special place in heaven for elementary school band teachers, because that is unbearable. All right. Hey, let's get to some of your emails. Mailbag tptpsa.com if you'd like a chance to be included. Less fight actually. Now some some are kind of feisty. Here to see how many we can get through. Sarah regarding ICE at polling places. If illegals don't vote, why are Dems happy that ICE happy to have why aren't libs happy to have ICE at polling places when they come up empty handed? Wouldn't that prove the point? That is a great point. We've made the point that it shouldn't. Well, if they're not voting, why is it bad that they're there? But that actually is a good point. Yeah. To to prove the idea that the illegals don't vote. You should want them there so that it would increase your argument. At least that should be the point of view taken by the lips. That's a good one, Sarah. I appreciate that. Let's see, on the topic of Governor Hairspray allegedly possibly participating or partaking in the Colombian nose candy, a fidgeting video that we showed yesterday. Patrick says this. I knew a lot of people like that. They love the booger sugar. Ah, the booger sugar. Interesting one. That's. I've never heard that one. I like that. Thanks Patrick. And Patrick goes on to say, yeah, he's clearly participating in that from John. He says he looks high as a kite. That my assessment also, again, allegedly. Jay says he's looking for the day forward to the day that Governor Newsom gets sober. You may have to be waiting a very, very long time. I don't think that's coming anytime soon. He's fond of possibly the Colombian nose candy, the booger sugar, but also well known, I believe, beverages of a certain persuasion. Jim agrees with the assessment. Snow candy is what he prefers to call what the government governor possibly may have been doing. All right, onto Denise. Denise is surprised to learn about the no Kings protest. Connecticut has a no Kings protest all over the state planned for this coming Saturday as well. I was wondering if it was just here in Connecticut until I heard you mentioned that others were planned as well. Thanks for mentioning the topic. Thank you Denise for listening to that. And thank you for letting us know that it's also going to happening in Connecticut. Yeah, I didn't know either. Apparently it's gonna be all over the place. Now this, this puts me in a difficult conundrum. I would love to go out on the streets and start talking to the people about the no Kings. And my wife and I have been reading Charlie's book Stopping the Name of God and are taking the taking Saturdays off very seriously. So unfortunately I wish they could plan a no Kings protest day on a work day. So I don't know. I'm sure, I'm sure what I can guarantees we will have footage from that. Let's see. I. I can't read that one. That one's bad. Um, on the topic of let's see, ice, how libs deal with ice, Cindy says I'm going to condense this. Basically. Hey, put all the lib politicians who think ice is so terrible in an auditorium with a bunch of people treating them the way they treat ice. See how they respond. Good point.
