for healing, learn more and sign the pledge@workingwithcancerpledge.com the democrat party is completely crashing out right now. Welcome to the Tudor Dixon Podcast. I'm Tudor Dixon and I'm going to take you on a little ride through Dem crash outs of the past. I don't know, I'd say week and a half, so I thought first we should go through AOC's crash out on the world stage. As a Democrat 2028 presidential candidate, I think this is probably the best Dem crash out of the week because it just keeps on going and keeps on going and she can't let it go. So we can't let it go because why would we let it go? First, let's talk about Taiwan because, well, she doesn't know how to talk about Taiwan. So here it is. Would and should the US Actually commit US troops to defend Taiwan if China were to move?
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC)
You know, I think that this is such a, you know, I think that this is a, this is of course, a very long standing policy of the United States. And I think what we are hoping for is that we want to make sure that we never get to that point and we want to make sure that we are moving in all of our economic research and our global positions to avoid any such confrontation. And for that question to even arise,
Tudor Dixon
do you think that she was like, yeah, I pulled that out at the end. Like, I really, I got it, because she didn't get it. And you have to ask yourself, how does this happen? You literally went to the Munich Security Conference. You went to another country where you knew you would be talking about foreign policy. You would say, perhaps she was not prepared, because if you watched that clip, you would think she was not prepared. However, her staff says she prepared for quite a long time for this. So apparently it wasn't preparation that was the problem. It seems that she confused the assignment. See, I believe that AOC thought she was going there to spread her socialist theory and therefore she could go to European countries and heap preys upon their socialist policies, which she did. Like, Americans are so jealous of you. We love you. We're so impressed by you. Please don't speak for me. Please don't actually go over there and say, you know what Americans are thinking. Because you legitimately don't. Obviously you don't even know American policy. Because she didn't get that right. The Taiwan answer, that's actually not the answer. That is not a long standing policy that we're going to put troops on the ground. And she was totally wrong. And she didn't do the research to get there and find out what she should say. She thought if I go there and I say all of the socialist stuff and I talk about my socialist theory, and then I go hard on hatred for Trump, it's going to be a huge success. Because they're obsessed with that. They're like, hatred for Trump like, wins the day no matter where we go. What she didn't know is that she might actually need to know a little bit of basic history too. But she kind of put herself in this position. This next one is really her fault. It's, it's embarrassing for Americans in general because she did go to an American public school. And so you have to go, how did this happen? But she made this flub when I guess she was attempting to say something negative about Marco Rubio, but she made such a total, complete error that it was all over social media. Here's AOC talking about Marco Rubio.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC)
Rubio's speech was a pure appeal to Western culture. My favorite part was when he said that American cowboys came from Spain.
Tudor Dixon
I thought they came from way too bad.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC)
I believe the Mexicans and descendants of African enslaved peoples would like to have a word on that.
Tudor Dixon
This was like immediate destruction. People instantaneously picked up on this. So she thought she was being, like, so cute because she was gonna go through and correct Marco Rubio. Because certainly in her mind, she was like, the Secretary of State said something and legitimately probably had no one check it. I mean, he certainly doesn't know history. There's no way he got this right. And, you know, the best part about this is that she thought it through. She was like, when I get up and speak today, I'm going to say the descendants of slaves. I mean, slave people would like to have a word. Because, you know, even in that moment, her little woke mind was like, do we say slaves or do we say slave people? I'm going to add people, because that's going to make it a lot better. This is how their minds work. And I don't know if she knows. I mean, this, that era was a very ugly era for the United States of America. But slaves didn't ride in on horses. They didn't. That's not where they came from. And you might say, well, give her a break. She didn't know. She didn't know that they actually did come from Spain. And this boomerang zinger was just a total accident. But here's the thing. The person who introduced horses to Mexico was actually named Cortez. Arnon Cortez. Like, you would think this famous Spanish conquistador who shares a name with her would have kind of stuck. Like, she. Maybe even the family be like, oh, yeah, we brought horses to the United States. We brought horses to Mexico. Like, we're the reason horses exist. Now. I'll give her credit. Like, this is a Cortez with an S and she's a Cortez with a Z. But I gotta tell you, if there was like, some famous Dixon with a CK instead of an X, I'd probably still be like, yeah, man. Like, that's kind of like my person. How can you flub this one when you are literally a Cortez? So you would be like, oh, my gosh, that's so humiliating. This cannot get worse for aoc. It cannot get worse. Like, how can you go on the world stage and it could get worse? And she would argue, it really wasn't that bad. Like, you didn't hear all my socialist theory. I came out with all these great socialist theories. But it does get worse. It gets worse because she's all like, venezuela, let me talk about that. And she wants to talk about Maduro because she thinks that Trump, like, apparently Trump is, like, judging countries on what side of the equator they're on. So this is what she had to say.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC)
You know, we look at what happened in Venezuela, for example. It is not a. It is. It is not a remark on who Maduro was as a leader. He canceled elections. He was an anti democratic leader. That doesn't mean that we can kidnap a head of state and engage in acts of war just because the nation is below the equator.
Tudor Dixon
So awkward because it's not below the equator. But I'm also like, when did that become an insult? Are we like, oh, my gosh, sorry, your girlfriend's like, from the wrong side of the equator. She's not coming over for dinner tonight. Is that legit a criticism of people? Do people have, like, the cool side of the equator and the uncool side of the equator? I've like, absolutely never heard this argument before. And then I also think, like, hmm, why does she use that weird accent? Because she's clearly got an American accent. Her first language is obviously American. She's like, hi, I'm aoc Never. Is she like, I'm Alexandra. Like, that's not how she speaks. But then. And she also didn't give Marco Rubio that same courtesy of like, Marco Rubio had this speech, but she's like Venezuela. And she's like maduro. I'm like, what in the world? What, how does that happen that you suddenly have to like, is she proving her Latino ness? I mean, I don't know what she's doing there, but she also is doing it in such an idiotic way because she genuinely gets the assignment wrong every time she gets the assignment wrong. And then one of my favorites was when she was trying to be really smart, but she was also like so incredibly complimented that she couldn't even hold her excitement in. Because the woman asks her on this panel, do you think if you were president today, would you put in a wealth tax? And of course she's like, yeah, this is the woman who wore the dress to the rich person party that said tax the rich. Like I'm so badass that I'm going to wear a dress to a party with rich people that rich people paid for me to go to. And I'm going to be like, in your face. I want to tax you. And that's going to make a huge statement. So obviously, obviously we knew her answer, but she didn't know who was on the panel with her. And that's where we get the embarrassing part for AOC because someone who isn't just talking about socialist theory, someone who has actually lived it, got to follow up with, no, you're not very smart. Here it is. So when you run for president, are you going to impose a wealth tax or a billionaires tax?
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC)
I don't think that I, I don't think that anyone. And that we don't have to wait for any one president to impose a wealth tax. I think that it needs to be done expeditiously.
Peter (Argentinian commentator)
You have the recipe that many Latin American countries applied many, many times that is some, some relief in the short term, but end up being, you know, a tragedy for the future. It's like public expenditure, huge public expenditure, price controls, sometimes wealth tax and you end up wealth goes away and you have just the tax and you don't. And you don't have wealth anymore. That was something that Peronism did many, many times. So all these recipes then creates a cycle. Then you have this short term relief but then goes with inflation shortage, then you have more poverty and this and the cycle goes and goes.
Tudor Dixon
I love that woman she's from Argentina. She tells it exactly as it is in such a nice way. But I cannot get past the way AOC reacts when she says, when you're president, she's like, that's so funny, because I'm totally going to be. And we should do this expeditiously, like, immediately, definitely on the wealth tax. And then this woman's just like, you know, honestly, you'll just be totally broke. And then actually, AOC did break personally. She broke. She broke when she got back to the United States and people started mocking her for going to an international security conference with absolutely no understanding of foreign policy and no attempt to learn who she was actually speaking with, who she was on panels with, what their history was. She looked like someone who went there on a whim with no staff, and yet she's a sitting congresswoman. Now she is a sitting congresswoman. I don't know if you knew this, but once upon a time she was a bartender. And bartending makes her infinitely more qualified than anybody who has served in the public sector. Here's what she said. When Fox News posted a tweet talking about Senator Kennedy mocking her, she responded back to this with, my having been a waitress makes me a thousand times more qualified to govern on behalf of working people than whatever life lifelong politician nonsense you've swung from your whole career. Why should working people vote for you if this is what you think of them? Oh, my goodness. Okay, so that's what she said. Because Senator Kennedy compared her to Kamala Harris. Because, like, honestly, if you listen to some of that, doesn't she sort of sound like Kamala Harris? So then she immediately pulls in like, I was a bartender. You can't mock me for sounding like Kamala Harris because I was a bartender. And I get the working person. She wasn't a waitress. She was a bartender in her twenties. She was a bartender partying in her twenties. Before then she became a congresswoman and makes a good salary as a congresswoman. Way more than a bartender. Way more than a waitress. So I think it's almost insulting to people who have waited tables their whole life, waiting tables with three kids at home to say, I get you. Because in my 20s I was playing Coyote Ugly. That is not the same as being working class waitress. That is not the same. And the fact that nobody's called her out on that. But the reality is no one's called them out on anything, which is why they can end up going to these conferences and think that they're going to be praised for all the Amazing things they're saying and that they can get away with what they get away with in the United States by just politicking away from that and going to. And this is why Trump is bad, and this is why everything should be free. But in real life, when you are really on the world stage, when you are really talking to heads of state, you can't politic around it. You have to be able to sit down and actually have intelligent discussions and negotiate and cooperate with people who are your allies and figure out what you're going to do with your adversaries. You can't just say, you know what? We're going to have this free utopia where everybody can just live and do whatever they want. It is ridiculous that she would go out there and lose her mind about this. But that wasn't it, I'm afraid. Like, maybe her bartending days came back to her after that, because it does seem like she got into the drink a bit after that. And maybe she was doing a little bit of screaming because she does this video with no voice. It's like, almost like it's the dead of night. You hear someone snoring in the background. It's like she was like, oh, my gosh, this is so bad. Things went so badly in Germany that I'm gonna have to. You know what? Screw it. I'm gonna do a video. That's a good idea. As a sitting congresswoman in the middle of the night, while I have someone snoring next to me, you can see, like, a headboard in the background. I'm going to do a video. But she has no voice. Like, is it because she talked a lot in Germany, or is it because Germany went so bad that she was screaming when she came home? We don't know. My suggestion, you lose your voice, you're publicly humiliated. Don't do the middle of the night video. But that's not good enough for Alex. She's smarter than us. She had to do it. She had to tell you why this happened. You're not going to believe why this happened to her. Obviously, it's because of Trump. Here it is.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC)
If you think that I don't understand foreign policy, because out of hours of discourse about international affairs, I paused to think about one of the most sensitive geopolitical issues that currently exist on Earth. I'm afraid the issue is not my understanding, but rather the problem is, perhaps you've gotten adjusted to a president that never thinks before he speaks.
Tudor Dixon
It's not my fault that I paused, didn't pause like, and mumbled through an answer for a very time to then give the wrong answer. Because apparently even all of that thinking that she did, unlike Trump, she's a thinker, folks. She's a. We've got a thinker here. And she thought for a really long time and then she still came up with the wrong answer. But it's Trump's fault, of course, because that's what all of them say, which is why they lost in 2024. And I don't really want to give them advice because I, I'm, I'm loving this. I mean, I think we broke her because she legit, like, did two more videos after this and they were very similar. They're like, you know, we're looking at her face really close and she was talking about snow and being off work, and then she was like, I'm answering a question of if I'm the same at home as I am at work. And she's like, the same. Yeah, only a little goofier. Like, no one asked you that because we already knew. We already knew there was, like, no more depth at home than there is at work. So why are you doing these videos? Please? We've lost her. But don't worry, she's going to resurface in 2028 and she'll run. I don't know if she'll run for president. I think she'll run for president. That smile, those giant teeth sticking out. She can't help it. She wants it so bad, she can taste it. And Bernie's telling her she's going to get it. He's not like, hey, just so you know, the elites of our party let us get to a certain point and then they kick us out. I mean, Bernie, come on. Nothing's changed. We know you were the choice. You were the choice. And then they put Hillary in your place because Hillary's so much better. You know who they will like this time? They're probably going to like Gavin. Gavin Newsom. Or as Trump lovingly calls him, new scum. Let's take a quick commercial break. We'll continue next on the Tudor Dixon Podcast.

Tudor Dixon
for healing, learn more and sign the pledge@workingwithcancerpledge.com. i don't know if you knew this, but, Gabby, he can't read. Did you know that? He can't read. Isn't he a success story for being totally illiterate? He can't read. But first, guess what? He went to Germany, too. Yeah, he went to Germany. You know that story that you've heard about Americans traveling to Europe and they became like, the ugly American. They're like the American that's like, you know, we're so arrogant, we're so right. And they say things that you go, don't say that. But they still say it anyway. So let me tell you a little story. I was one time on a flight with a German guy, and it was a flight from Detroit over to Germany. So we were on the flight for quite a long time, and he was talking to me about, like, German history. And he would. We were. He was talking about how different America is. He was. He's living here now. And he said, you know, you guys have like this competitive side and people win. And he's like, we don't really let one person get ahead of the others. We kind of want everybody to feel like we're a team together. And I remember saying, looking at him saying, oh, yeah, you. You had a problem with that once, didn't you? And he was like, it's like such a sore point. We're so ashamed of our history. We're so ashamed of what happened we. With World War II. It's obviously not something that you, as a politician, who's over there talking to other world leaders about leadership bring up, but somebody didn't give Gavin the message, so here he is.
Gavin Newsom
But I want to remember all those images of masked men, the secret police, something familiar in Germany. Those first images came out of my state, the second largest city in the United States of America. We saw 4,000 National Guard federalized, first time. We never seen anything like this. And 700 active duty Marines sent not overseas, but to the second largest city in the United States of America. Militarizing the streets of my city, masked men, Masked men showing up, unaccountable, no idea IDs.
Tudor Dixon
So the people in Europe, just for all American politicians, they actually can see the news and they can see what's going on in America. So in case you're listening and you didn't watch that, he legitimately has a German politician next to him and he says, we have masked men on our streets, pats him on the back and goes, you know a little bit about that, don't you? Like nothing like Bringing up the worst part of history. And I'm sure this guy's like, no, I don't, because I didn't do that. I wasn't alive. I mean, what if he patted him on the back about slavery and was like, you know a little bit about that? Gavin, like, what in the world? Have a little bit of class. Have a little bit of understanding. You can't do things like that. So that was bad. It was probably really annoying for the people over there. It was probably one of those things where, like, you slick little scumbag, get out of here. You are not. I mean, this is the contrast between Gavin Newsom and Donald Trump. But I would say even the contrast between Gavin Newsom and a Barack Obama, you just don't make crucial mistakes like that that are so embarrassing. He doesn't come off as presidential. He comes off as like that bully that came, that rich bully who kicked the kid who didn't have any money and told him his clothes were ugly. That's how Gavin Newsom comes off. But Gavin Newsom wants you to think that he's totally different. He's written a book, and I think it's like the book is telling one side of his life. Like, I lived with this mom who didn't have a lot of money. Don't mention that his dad was super rich and. And gave him all kinds of safaris to Africa and money to start a business, and he went to great schools. No, Gavin wants you to think he's just like you. Or I guess he wants people to think he's not very smart. So he took a book tour, and he stopped in Atlanta to have a fireside chat with Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens. The problem is he was in front of a predominantly black audience. So the mayor is black. He had this conversation with him. I am. You'll see people saying this wasn't a black audience. But I'm taking from the local news there quoted. I'm quoting this. They said it was predominantly black audience, and this is what he had to say.
Gavin Newsom
I'm not, you know, I'm not trying to impress you. I'm just trying to impress upon you. I'm like you. I'm no better than you. You know, I'm a 960sat guy. And, you know, and I'm not trying to offend anyone. You know, trying to act all there if you got 940. But literally a 960sat guy. I cannot. You. You've never seen me read a speech, because I cannot read a speech. Maybe the wrong business to be.
Tudor Dixon
Never seen him read. Did you know that he can't read? That the. The governor of California can't. He's never read a speech because he can't. He can't read. I mean, it actually makes so much sense when you look at California, you're like, oh, my gosh. This is why nothing is going well in California, because he can't read. Although he told everybody he can't read because he's dyslexic. So I don't know what's more insulting, like pretending all dyslexic people are illiterate and that they can't read, because they do. They do read. He can't read, though, because he's dyslexic. He can't read at all. Although when he didn't like the banned books in 2022, he actually could read. He put out this tweet that said he was reading the banned books, reading some banned books to figure out what these states are so afraid of. Now, I'll give you this. He ended that sentence with a preposition. So maybe he doesn't know grammar, but he. He was reading those books. He's actually sitting there looking at the books and saying that he's reading banned books. Hmm. Maybe he didn't know what was in the books because he couldn't read. Maybe that's why he was like, why are they banning these books? Why are they so bad? He couldn't read them, so. Oh, wait, wait, wait. But then he actually could read because he posted this video a few years back when he was talking about reading a book.
Gavin Newsom
You've written a hell of a book. And I don't say that lightly. I went through it in a quick hour and a half, almost two hours, and trust me, I don't read very fast, but it reads at an unbelievable pace. It's so well written, and of course, it's so familiar because I felt a little bit adjacent so much of the subject matter, but it's 18 chapters. It's an impressive piece of work. 263 or so pages.
Tudor Dixon
Whoa, wait a minute. 260 pages? And he read through it in an hour and a half. He has figured it out. He's figured it out. He's actually a total liar. I mean, think about this. He is a total liar. He can read. He's lying to you. But now he's caught in that lie. And he's also caught pandering to black people, because essentially what he was saying there is. I'm also no better than you. I think you guys are really dumb. I think you're dumb. So I'm going to tell you I'm also that dumb. I think you can't read. So I'm going to tell you I also can't read. Why in the world is it not a point where people in the Democrat Party are saying, we are tired of being told we can't do things. We are tired of being insulted. We are tired of being told that we are total idiots and that we must vote for you because you're just as big an idiot. He can read. He's lying to you. And then the best part is that he gets called out on it and he loses his mind about getting called out on it because Sean Hannity says he puts out a tweet and he just says, hey, here's the video. Gavin Newsom thinks a 960 SAT makes him like black Americans. Let that sink in. So now we have to cue the AOC style meltdown for Gavin. He must have gotten overserved at the French Laundry or something because suddenly he decides to respond and he says, you didn't give a beep about the President of the United States of America posting an ape video of President Obama or calling African nations beepholes, but you're going to call me a racist for talking about my lifelong struggle with dyslexia? Spare me your fake effing outrage, Sean. Wow, that was aggressive. Mary Kathryn Ham posted like she feels like this. Dyslexia is suddenly like Joe Biden's. Remember when he suddenly ended up with a stutter? Like, oh, we've never known that Joe Biden had a stutter, but he does have a stutter. And now we never knew that Gavin Newsom was dyslexic. And he even is like, you bet you didn't know this. Yeah, because you read just fine. But then as soon as he gets called out on it, he goes crazy. And this is a new thing on to just continually throw out the F bombs and swear and curse. And it's like, the more I curse, the more powerful I am. And it's in writing. It's permanent. What you put out there is permanent. I mean, also, this video of him is permanent. So he obviously has lost it. Let's remember, not only has he insulted black people with this, but he's also told dyslexic people, you're illiterate and you can't ever read. This is the part that doesn't jive. It's just like, I've got low test scores. I can't read a lectomy based on the state of California. We can understand that there is a bit of a problem there, but the idea of like, look, I have a better idea. Don't talk about the state of California. Let's tell them I can't read. They're going to love me a lot better now. But let's face it, these two presidential hopefuls, they come by their unhinged responses honestly. I mean, let's face it, they watched Hillary Clinton run for president and she hasn't changed one single bit. Let's take a quick commercial break. We'll continue next on the Tudor Dixon Podcast.

supported me while I was going through treatment by not treating me like somebody who was going through treatment. Treatment sucks. Cancer sucks. Being engaged with work really helped to. I just knew I was going to beat this thing.

for healing, learn more and sign the pledge@workingwithcancerpledge.com Hillary was such a gift because she was such an angry little creature. And she is, now that she didn't win, even more angry. And guess what? She went to Germany too. And she was there with all her TDS glory. Here it is. Peter, do you agree that the Trump

administration's actions on Ukraine have produced a
Tudor Dixon
rift in the West?
Peter (Argentinian commentator)
Well, first, I think you really don't like him.
Tudor Dixon
You know, that is absolutely true. But I really, not only do I not like him, I don't like him because of what he's doing, doing to the United States and the world. And I think you should take a hard look at it if you think that there is something good that will come out of it.
Peter (Argentinian commentator)
What I think, what I think Trump is doing in America, I think it is reaction, reaction, reaction for something that, for some policies that really went too far, too far from the regular people, too far from reality. So, you know, we see, we saw the cancel culture, we saw the woke revolution. I don't agree with the gender revolution, the climate alarmism, gender, women having their rights.
Tudor Dixon
No, let Peter go on.
Peter (Argentinian commentator)
I think there are two genders, but
Tudor Dixon
half of us can.
Peter (Argentinian commentator)
Some of us think that there is more than one or more than two. Sorry, more than two. Gender. I think there is male and female and the rest probably is a social construct. So this is something that went too far.
Tudor Dixon
But does that justify selling out the people of Ukraine who are on the front lines dying to save their freedom and their two genders? If that's what you're worried about.
Peter (Argentinian commentator)
Can I please finish my points? I'm sorry that makes you nervous. I'm really sorry for that.
Tudor Dixon
Make me nervous. It sense. Makes, makes me. No, no, no, no.
Peter (Argentinian commentator)
But seriously, can we let Peter finish, please?
Tudor Dixon
Can we let Peter finish, please?
Peter (Argentinian commentator)
I have to, I have to say one more thing. You said that Ukraine fights for our future and for our freedom. I think first Ukraine fights for Ukraine's future, Ukraine's freedom, and Ukraine's sovereignty and independence.
Tudor Dixon
That's a long one, but I love it. It's so funny to me because she just becomes totally nuts. Even the moderator in Germany has to say to her three times, let him talk. He has to stop her and say, please let me finish. Like, this is not a debate. You have to remember, she's on a panel. This is not her opponent. She's on a panel with this guy. And you have to also think about the fact that we. She is saying women's rights are being taken away. What are you talking about? Women's rights are being taken away. She's complaining that she doesn't have the rights that she has in America that she. That she should have in America. Let's remember, this is a woman who was the first lady of the United States. And you can say, well, she got there, obviously, because her husband was president, and that's just kind of a gimme. Okay, well, even if we're going to get. Give her that one. She then becomes Senator, a U.S. senator. Now, granted, she goes to a blue state, she becomes a US Senator, but she gets elected. She's a US Senator, then she's given the position of Secretary of State. So you would think that as a woman who has been first lady, then goes on to be a senator, then goes on to be Secretary of State, A, she would not complain that she doesn't have rights, and B, she would understand who she's talking to, because here she is talking, talking to a Czech politician from the Czech Republic, a country that allows no immigration, that is very concerned with culture. And to be quite honest, they're not exactly where the United States is when it comes to women's rights. Women have rights there, but they're definitely treated differently. They are definitely seen as a different group. I have friends in the Czech Republic. My daughter plays soccer in the United States. And they were like, oh, we don't really want girls playing soccer in the Czech Republic. Their culture is very different. She was Secretary of State. She starts yelling at the guy. Instead of being understanding, instead of getting where they're coming from. It's so embarrassing. But the reality is she's so upset about losing to Donald Trump that she, again, just like aoc, just like Gavin Newsom. They thought, we'll go there. AOC thought, I'll rip on Marco Rubio. I'll rip on this administration. I'll just go in there with my socialist theory and I will win the day. And then she Fell flat on her face. And then you've got Gavin Newsom who's like, I'm gonna call them the Gestapo. I'm gonna call them Nazis. I'm gonna pat the guy from Germany on the back and be like, dude, you get it? This was you. And I'm gonna win the day. And he fell flat on his face. And then you got Hillary, which you're kind of like, why is Hillary still there? Like, hillary, retire. Go keep Bill out of trouble. What are you doing on the world stage again? And she's not even trying to win the day. She is just a crotchety rag. Like, she is just a crabby, crabby, crabby lady, and she's destroying their party. So, folks, today, this is the sorry state of the Democrat Party, but there's a lesson in this for all of us. And the lesson is don't sit back and laugh. Actually, we totally deserve to get to sit back and laugh because this is ridiculous. But sit back and laugh at how stupid they are. But more importantly, go vote. Because if you don't vote, these crazy, stupid, idiotic, pandering fools. Pandering. Whether it's the way you say a Spanish name or the way you talk to black Americans or the way you are talking to women. And let's not forget Hillary's hot sauce moment. These people, if you do not vote, these people will be in charge. You are the only barrier to keep these loons from getting into power. So if you learned anything from this podcast, please, please, please come in these midterms, get out there, stop these lunatics from getting in power. Look in your state, you've got an aoc, you've got a Gavin Newsom, you've got a Hillary Clinton. They're just trying to get through, and they're getting through on these small local elections, they're getting through on these congressional elections, and they're getting through even into these gubernatorial elections. I mean, Gavin Newsom got there and he can't even read. So please, please go vote. And please keep listening to the Tutor Dixon podcast. This podcast, remember, you can get it wherever you get Your podcast. The iHeartRadio app, Apple podcast. You can watch it on rumble and YouTube, uterdixon, but make sure you join. And right now, go have a blessed day and vote.

Podcast: The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show (Tudor Dixon)
Date: February 25, 2026
Host: Tudor Dixon
In this episode, Tudor Dixon provides a scathing, humorous review of recent high-profile blunders—or, as she terms them, “crash outs”—by three prominent Democrats: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC), Gavin Newsom, and Hillary Clinton. Using their recent appearances on the world stage (notably at international conferences and media events), Dixon dissects their gaffes, tone-deaf comments, and follow-up meltdowns, positioning these instances as evidence of the current state of the Democratic Party.
[03:01–22:10]
Munich Security Conference Flub:
AOC is criticized for an unclear, rambling response on U.S. policy toward Taiwan:
“I think that this is a...this is of course, a very long standing policy of the United States. And I think what we are hoping for is that we want to make sure that we never get to that point and we want to make sure that we are moving in all of our economic research and our global positions to avoid any such confrontation...”
— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez [04:00]
Tudor’s take: AOC was unprepared and misunderstood American policy, mistakenly believing her socialist rhetoric would be sufficient for international audiences.
Historical Error about Cowboys:
“My favorite part was when he said that American cowboys came from Spain...I believe the Mexicans and descendants of African enslaved peoples would like to have a word on that.”
— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez [07:02]
Geographic Misstep on Venezuela:
“That doesn’t mean that we can kidnap a head of state and engage in acts of war just because the nation is below the equator.”
— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez [10:12]
Wealth Tax Proposal and Reality Check
“You have the recipe that many Latin American countries applied many, many times...all these recipes then create a cycle. Then you have this short-term relief but then goes with inflation, shortage, then you have more poverty and ... the cycle goes and goes.”
— Argentinian panel member [13:23]
AOC’s Social Media Meltdown:
“My having been a waitress makes me a thousand times more qualified to govern on behalf of working people than whatever life lifelong politician nonsense you’ve swung from your whole career.”
— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez [15:44]
Late-Night Video Response:
“If you think that I don’t understand foreign policy, because out of hours of discourse about international affairs, I paused to think about one of the most sensitive geopolitical issues that currently exist on Earth...perhaps you’ve gotten adjusted to a president that never thinks before he speaks.”
— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez [19:34]
[25:06–36:55]
Germany “Ugly American” Faux Pas:
“Those first images came out of my state ... Militarizing the streets of my city, masked men ... You know a little bit about that, don’t you?”
— Gavin Newsom [26:55]
“I Can’t Read” Pandering:
“I’m a 960SAT guy...You’ve never seen me read a speech, because I cannot read a speech.”
— Gavin Newsom [30:10]
Social Media Blowup After Criticism:
“Spare me your fake effing outrage, Sean.”
— Tudor paraphrasing Newsom’s response [33:50]
[39:21–45:45]
Grievance and Interruptions at German Panel:
“That is absolutely true. But I really, not only do I not like him, I don’t like him because of what he’s doing, doing to the United States and the world...”
— Hillary Clinton [39:57]
Lack of Cultural Understanding:
Perpetual Victimhood:
“This is how their minds work. And I don't know if she knows. I mean, this, that era was a very ugly era for the United States of America. But slaves didn't ride in on horses. They didn't. That's not where they came from.”
— Tudor Dixon, on AOC’s historic inaccuracy [07:27]
“Do people have, like, the cool side of the equator and the uncool side of the equator? I've absolutely never heard this argument before.”
— Tudor Dixon, on AOC’s Venezuela geography slip [10:39]
“You’ve never seen me read a speech, because I cannot read a speech. Maybe the wrong business to be.”
— Gavin Newsom [30:10]
“He can read. He’s lying to you.”
— Tudor Dixon, on Newsom’s shifting narrative [33:04]
“She is just a crotchety rag. Like, she is just a crabby, crabby, crabby lady, and she’s destroying their party.”
— Tudor Dixon, on Hillary Clinton [44:44]
“But more importantly, go vote. Because if you don’t vote, these crazy, stupid, idiotic, pandering fools...will be in charge. You are the only barrier to keep these loons from getting into power.”
— Tudor Dixon, closing message [45:10]
AOC’s Debate Fails: [03:01–22:10]
Newsom’s German Gaffe & Literacy Claims: [25:06–36:55]
Hillary Clinton’s Panel Antics: [39:21–45:45]
Call to Action: [45:10–End]
Tudor Dixon’s episode aims to both amuse and activate listeners, skewering AOC, Newsom, and Clinton for their perceived incompetence, arrogance, and lack of self-awareness on the world stage. Dixon paints these gaffes as symptomatic of a floundering Democratic Party and closes with a direct appeal: “Go vote,” lest such politicians advance further up the ladder.
