He's. He's having a. He's having a bad go of it. Uh, John Brennan's investigation is only growing, and I want to remind you of something. He's. He's the former CIA director. Of course, he's also the reason that the Steele dossier got slammed into the intelligence community assessment. John Brennan has been, throughout his career, an election rigging aficionado. All he does is rig elections. That's kind of his whole thing. And so he tried to do it in 2016, and then he subsequently once again tried to do it with a little bit more success, unfortunately, in 2020 as he signed onto that ridiculous 51. Intelligence officials say Hunter Biden's laptop is actually Russian disinformation. Yeah, Brennan was a part of that scheme. So John Brennan has been part of, what is the word for it, a grand conspiracy against President Trump and against, more importantly, you, the American voter for a long time. And that all seems to be catching up with him. In fact, we are looking right now at the potential for a massive grand conspiracy indictment coming out of specifically the Southern District of Florida in January. And we've heard from such great Americans as Mike Davis and Julie Kelly about this. And yesterday we get an update on the whole saga from Fox, which has this really intriguing report that the DOJ is actively preparing to issue grand jury subpoenas related to John Brennan and this investigation. Get ready, here they come. Justice Department officials in Miami and Washington, D.C. are now actively preparing to issue grand jury subpoenas related to the investigation into former CIA Director John Brennan. The U.S. attorney for the Southern District of Florida, a guy called Jason Redding. Ken Quinones is supervising the probe. Fox News reached out to the Justice Department. Sources there declined to comment. Fox first reported that Brennan and former FBI Director James Comey were under investigation as early as July of this year. Thursday's development, well, it intensifies that investigation. Comey is fighting his case in court with a trial set for January. They emphasize Brandon hasn't been indicted yet, and it's unclear if a grand jury will. But evidence is being presented in South Florida. Where? What is in South Florida, ladies and Gentlemen, what in the world is in South Florida? Mar A Lago. Mar a Lago is in South Florida. Is Mar A Lago in any way the scene of a crime? Well, yes, the grand conspiracy against President Trump and against Trump's voters found itself in Mar A Lago. Since the beginning of this year, many of you, and certainly I, have been calling for a grand jury to be empaneled in Florida because we would very likely get a legitimate grand jury composed of real Americans who really hate crime. And as a result, what do you get out of that? You get indictments. You get indictments. So what are the chances that John Brennan is indicted? They're very high. They're very, very high. And this is great news. It's great to see this. And I will take these breadcrumbs. These are meaningful ones. These are hardly crumbs. They're. They're big chunks of bread that we have subpoenas going out right now to inform this grand jury investigation, which is great. And if you want more evidence that it's real, look no further than the fact that MSNBC is freaking the F out about what's happening right now to John Brennan. Oh, no. DOJ investigations are very difficult to withstand. The. This is terrible. Watch MSNBC break down the news for their insane audience. Yesterday. Watch.

B
I covered the original John Durham investigation. And at the time, I was covering the CIA. And so many CIA officers and intelligence officers had to get lawyers, had to pay for lawyers to go in and be interviewed by federal prosecutors about the work that they did in assembling this intelligence assessment. And at the end of the day, in 2023, John Durham released a massive report and he did not criticize at all the preparation of this intelligence assessment. And this was a man appointed by Bill Barr. This was a Donald Trump appointed special counsel investigation that exhaustively examined all of this and the FBI's Crossfire Hurricane criminal investigation of the same ground and the question of whether the Trump campaign had colluded with Russia and no major figure was charged with wrongdoing. And now this Justice Department wants to look at all of this again and, you know, whether they ever file criminal charges, it's going to cause people to have to hire lawyers, to have to go before grand juries, to have to provide records. It's a, a lot of pain that they are prepared to impose on former government officials and others on it.
- [07:30]
A
And maybe that point, it's amazing. Listen to Fusion Ken. Fusion Ken is freaking out about this. Oh, no. John Brennan's gonna have to hire lawyers. Oh, no, he's gonna have to spend money to defend himself. He might have to go bankrupt because of all of this. Oh, who could even imagine something like that happening to an American citizen? I don't know. How about all of us? How about Trump supporters can imagine that? How about people like Peter Navarro and Steve Bannon can imagine that, or Stone can imagine that, or General Flynn can imagine that, or Carter Page can imagine that, or Donald Trump himself can imagine that. And maybe Mark Howe could imagine that. Maybe people like the Mike Pillow guy could imagine that. Maybe any one of these American citizens who had their lives flipped upside down, who've had their bank accounts drained, who've had a constant stream of attacks on the basis of literally nothing except for the fact that they are Donald Trump or they support Donald Trump. That's the entire thing. So what's good for the goose is good for the gander. In this case, we're not even a part of the same flock. Donald Trump and the people around him do nothing wrong. All of you do something wrong, you deserve the weight of this entire prosecution. And, yes, the pain of the process. Oh, the process is the punishment. Good. You deserve punishment. And it's happening. I'm going to say this over and over again because I don't like any of this black pilling that I see going on out there. It's bullshit to me. If you get James Comey, Letitia James, if you get John Bolton, if you get Lamonica McIvery, if you get Catabugabaga, whatever the hell her name is, and these guys are being served indictments. Indictments are not sternly worded letters. They are the pain of the federal government bearing down on you because of the consequences of your own cruel actions. Deal with it. And this is real, and it's coming now for John Brennan. And with any luck, we will get a massive grand conspiracy case coming in January. This is the time frame we keep being told. I pray to God that it's true. Coming in January. That uncorks the entire thing. I will take it. I will take it. And so the walls are definitely closing in. This is not like the Trump thing. Oh, the walls are closing in. The walls are closing in. And meanwhile, President Trump constantly survives their best efforts to destroy him, including being shot in the head in Butler, Pennsylvania, last year. He's constantly escaping all of that. Yet here we are. Here we are. And the walls are genuinely closing in on a guy who deserves it. In fact, next week on this program, I'm going to bring in Thomas speciale Thomas Speciale is a great American. He's an intel community veteran. He just confronted John Brennan a couple days ago, got in his face and Brennan. And not. Not. He didn't get in Brennan's face. Brennan got in his face because Thomas was just asking really basic questions like, hey, hey, why'd you sign on to that intel letter? Why'd you do that? Why did you say that the Steele dossier was legitimate? Why'd you jam it into the intel community assessment? Why'd you do any of that? And what we saw was Brennan went ballistic. He went absolutely bonkers because of this. And that's because he's sweating it big time. And it's good. It's long overdue. By the way, that MSNBC clip I played for you. You know where Fusion Kendelane is making defenses of John Brennan. Brennan's an MSNBC contributor. The guy's an NBC contributor. He lies to the American people. He attacks the American people. Then he's rewarded with a plum cable news gig. And then NBC is like, we have sources that tell us that John Brennan is being unfairly attacked. Who's your source? John Brennan. Spare us, please. I like it. Anyway, in case you're wondering what's going to happen next, as usual, take it from me, we've got some intel. Also, the United States Justice Department is going after yet another Democrat the New York Times pissed off about this. Here's a fun story for you. The Justice Department is said to be investigating D.C. mayor Muriel Bowser right now over her trip to Qatar that was paid for by Qatar. Federal prosecutors have opened a corruption investigation to Mayor Muriel Bowser of Washington examining a foreign trip that she took with members of her staff paid for by. By cutter, according to people familiar with the inquiry. So the U.S. attorney's office in Washington has been doing this apparently for months now, and we'll see where it goes. But yet another Democrat under investigation here. This could. I was thinking as I saw this headline, I was like, you know something? This could have something to do with Muriel Bowser's behavior as President Trump ordered the national guard into Washington, D.C. remember that sequence of events where President Trump saves the nation's capital from the. All the crime that was hurting people like big balls. Poor big balls, Ed. Big balls Cornerstein. What that guy had to deal with, protecting his woman, being attacked. Just all he's trying to do is save our country. And the man's getting attacked in the streets of D.C. mayor Muriel Bowser. In the end, she came around. Remember that? Oh, yeah, Big Balls. Do we have more of a cut of that or is it just that little. That little stub? I love the, The Big Ball song. What's that, Justin? Oh, you got to dig for it. The Big Ball Song is so good. Anyway, Chad, do you want to hear the Big Ball song again? It's been a while since we played it. I don't know if we should pull out of the archives. But Big Balls did a good thing. Big Ball stood up for his woman. He was attacked. He was assaulted in the streets of D.C. and so the president, that was the. All the inducement President Trump needed. He's like, you really think that's going to happen? You kick my guy in the balls, we're going to come after you. So he does, and he deploys the National Guard and takes over the D.C. police. He cleans up the city. And at first, Muriel Bowser, the mayor, is flipping out about this. How dare you. We shouldn't do this. But in the end, she actually came around and she's like, okay, we're going to let the President, you know, restore peace. And the National Guard continues to be deployed in the nation's capital right now. In fact, I was just, I was just in Washington D.C. i was in downtown D.C. yesterday, and I'm walking around funny. It's funny. You know, actually, it's so funny. First of all, I saw National Guards guys standing everywhere. They're by all the metro stops. Everybody looks bored. You know, they don't, they don't have much to do because I think their sheer presence has actually induced a piece in the nation's capital. It's great. But you want to know something weird? I was just telling Justin this before the show today. I was in downtown D.C. yesterday. I'm standing at a street corner ready to cross, waiting like a, like a good, law abiding America citizen. I'm not jaywalking. I'm waiting for the cross signal. And I'm standing there, you know who walks up, stands next to me? Bill Barr, the former Attorney General of the United States, standing right next to me. And I don't even know what, like, what do you do with that? You know? Do you like, hey, Bill Barr, I gotta talk to you? Like, no, I, I was just like, no, I'm not a psychopath. I'm like, no, I'll just cross the street. So I crossed the street. So Bill Barr and I crossed the street. Now, granted, Bill Barr's a heavier set man than I am, so I crossed it at a faster pace and he was left in the dust. But, but that's weird. That was a weird experience yesterday. But, yes, we saw the. We saw the National Guard out on the streets of D.C. yesterday, and they're there. And, and the city is a lot safer. So the only point is that I'm trying to make, as I'm connecting all of this to Muriel Bowser, is Bowser all of a sudden came around to Trump, and she's like, actually, he's doing great things for the city, and it's worth working with him. And he's made the city so much safer. And I do wonder to what extent that was an effort to try and, like, mitigate this Justice Department investigation that she was aware of. Like, oh, man, I better play nice with Trump. Maybe that'll back some of this off on me. We'll see. But. But yet another Democrat under investigation by the United States Department of Justice right now. And speaking of crime in Washington, D.C. and the attacks on big balls, how's the search going, Justin? There it is. Late at night when the streets go cold, evil creeps in. You can bring it up. We want more volume, don't we, guys? Little ladder. What is even going on right now? What's happening? All right, thanks, Justin. I don't even know. We got to work on that. So, people, People are very critical of the DJ right now, and rightfully so. Hey, speaking of crime in Washington, D.C. remember the, the, the psycho sandwich thrower who ran up on a member of law enforcement and whips out his subway sandwich and then throws it directly into the chest of a guy who's just trying to, you know, restore order to the nation's capital? This is the very thing that Muriel Bowser would eventually come around on. It's like, actually, that's a good idea, what Trump is doing. So we went through a sequence of events with the guy who assaulted law enforcement, the sandwich trucker. And it started with that The Feds wanted to bring felony assault charges against him, so they presented it to a grand jury and then a D.C. grand jury. This is something that everyone is reminded of. D.C. grand juries are rigged, totally rigged. It's a city full of Democrats. And they decided, yeah, they're not going to do it. They're not going to bring these charges against the guy. They let him go because they're Democrats. They hate Trump. They support assaulting cops if it's in the service of attacking Trump's agenda. And so no felony charges for the guy who assaulted a cop on camera. And right after he threw the sandwich into the chest of the officer, he made a run for it. Cops chasing him, tackling him, taking him into custody, and no felony consequences. So the Justice Department then moved on to misdemeanor assault. They said, well, if we can't do felony, let's move to misdemeanor. They moved a misdemeanor assault and this thing went to trial. And yesterday we get an update on all of this, that a D.C. trial jury has concluded that he is not guilty of anything. The man who threw a sandwich at a federal agent in Washington is found not guilty of assault charge. Former. This is. And again, this guy's a former Justice Department official. Former in that he was working at the Justice Department when he threw the sandwich. A Justice Department official who threw a sandwich at a federal agent during President Trump's law enforcement surge in D.C. was found not guilty Thursday in the latest legal rebuke of the federal intervention. Legal rebuke. What garbage? Legal. No, this is lawfare. This is corrupt. This is Democrat Party politics on display. The guy assaulted a cop on camera. Open and shut. This should not even have been a long trial. It should have been like 4 seconds. Watch the video. Yeah, he's guilty. Move on. The viral video of the sandwich tossing made a guy called Sean Charles Dunn a symbol of resistance to Trump's deployment of federal agents to combat crime in the nation's capital. His misdemeanor acquittal is another setback for prosecutors who have faced a backlash for their aggressive charging tactics during the law enforcement search. The media are so chock full of liars, it's unreal. The fact that the press are rooting on the lawbreakers at the expense of the law abiding, at the expense of civility, at the expense of law enforcement. The fact that the media are rooting on the law breaking is all the sign in the world that they're not on your side, they're rooting against you. And so this jackass, Sean Charles Dunn, worked at the Justice Department, he's a lawyer. He. In other words, he has complete consciousness of guilt. As he assaults a cop. He does this and throws the sandwich. No. No consequences whatsoever. This is why we're so ticked off that we don't live in, like, a world of hypocrisy. We live in a world of hierarchy, where the left gets to break the law and get away with it, so long as they do it in lawless jurisdictions that support their law breaking. This is the nation's capital. This is the uphill battle that the President of the United States has to fight. And so I'm telling you right now, they should just defund the federal court system in D.C. get rid of it entirely. You want to try people for violations of federal law, do it in jurisdictions with real people that have two brain cells to rub together that can actually tell you what occurred as they watch it on camera. And this. This mindless, this brainless lemming, Sean Charles Dunn, after succeeding yesterday in his case, steps outside in front of the courthouse and here's his silly post victory statement. Listen to this. And listen to the question that the reporter asks after this guy gives a rambling statement about nothing. He goes, wait a second. What does this have to do with you assaulting a cop? Watch.
- [20:24]
C
And I am so happy that justice prevails in spite of everything happening. And that night, I believe that I was protecting the rights of immigrants. And let us not forget that the great Seal of the United States says e pluribus unum. That means from many one.
- [20:50]
A
Oh, my gosh.
- [20:51]
C
Every life matters. No matter where you came from, no matter how you got here here, no matter how you identify, you have the right to live a life that is free. Thank you.

Sean, what does that have to do with throwing a sandwich? Thank you very much. I love. I don't know who that reporter was, but that's my guy. I like that guy. Sean, what does that have to do with throwing a sandwich? What? Everything you just said meant literally nothing. It just meant nothing. It was mindless. It was empty. That was room temperature IQ analysis of what the hell you were doing. You were protecting immigrants. You threw a sandwich at a federal cop. You're not protecting anybody. And by the way, the people that you are standing up for are not legal immigrants to the country. They're illegal aliens who invaded the country. But it is true. Do you get the sense that that guy is a world class moron? Like, not only is he a true believer, but like to the point that there are. I think there's a. A medical condition. Is he dull? Is that a. Is that how we would describe him? Dull? Mentally deficient? Maybe that's the explanation. Not guilty by reason of mental deficiency. He's just too low IQ to actually hold accountable. That was one of the dumbest possible statements I've ever heard given outside of a courthouse. I did it to fight for the immigrants. You. You're an idiot. What is, Sean? What does that have to do with throwing a sandwich? Literally nothing. He walks away, but there he is. He gets. He gets away with it. And that's. That's why the DC system is rigged. And that's why, by the way, almost none of the charges that are brought in Washington D.C. are going to stick on these lefties who deserve these charges. So if we can't get, get the guys who assault cops on camera, what are the chances we get the guys who are violating the law at the top levels of the Obama administration? Very low. Very, very low. Which means all of this stuff has to be done outside of DC which goes back to my point about South Florida. If they're catching John Brennan in South Florida, if they're sending out subpoenas as they are right now in South Florida. Yeah, yeah, that's a big deal. One more thing to you, for you on, on subpoenas. I want to, I want to share something with you that I think is of immense interest. The, the ALX Twitter account, Alex on, on, on X like this account. He posts this scoop. 30 more FBI subpoenas related to the Russiagate investigations are going out today and tomorrow. This would have been yesterday, Thursday as well as Friday. The deep state FBI Director Cash Patel takedown has commenced. In other words, Cash and the team are leading a full blown assault as we speak on Russiagate. That this, this claim, this scoop is very credible. This is a very credible scoop from alx. So as we're watching, keep your eyes open. Interesting things are definitely happening. And one of the great things about this program is you and I get to follow it together. I like this. Okay, see here, Is that true? ALX is Benny Johnson's producer. Is that true? I didn't know that. Ms. Decline says that. Is that, that is true, Justin. Oh, that's fun. Okay, that's even better. That's great. Okay, let's see. All right, coming up here in a moment. I want to, I've got some things to get to. We have to cover the beauties of our era. Are you ready? Sydney Sweeney and Nancy Pelosi, both, of course, as you know, drop dead gorgeous women. Just, just wonderful people. I think of Nancy Pelosi and all of a sudden, oh, yeah, when I see her, my teeth chatter as much as hers do. Yeah. Coming up, Cindy Sweeney, Nancy Pelosi. Nancy Pelosi is retiring. We look back at her crappy career. It's all ahead on this edition of Vids. Great to have you with us on a Friday.

Thank you to First Liberty, great sponsor of our program. Let me get to Nancy Pelosi now. We get updates. Yesterday, Nancy Pelosi is ducking out of Congress. She's finally announced her retirement, kind of as expected. You know, the truth is she's actually the shadow speaker of the House right now. Like Hakeem Jeffries is too stupid. Speaking of stupid lefties, he's way too stupid to be the, the speaker of the House. Actually, he's not speaker of the House at all. He's the Minority leader that I'm stupid for even thinking he was Speaker. Yeah, he's the minority leader right now, but I call him the dial up Democrat because his brain operates very slowly. He's like, when he's talking, he, he can't get the words out of his mouth. Yeah, that's Hakeem Jeffries. Nancy Pelosi pretended that she was stepping away from the role of leadership and of course has been manipulating everything. She was the one who threw a hook around Joe Biden and dragged him off the stage and said, yeah, you're not allowed to do this anymore. Nancy Pelosi has announced that she is not running for reelection. Here's the story brought to us by the excellent Daily Caller. Nancy Pelosi is done. So California Representative Nancy Pelosi announced she will not seek reelection on Thursday morning. She's ending her longtime reign as one of the most powerful Democrats in Congress. The 85 year old former House speaker announced her retirement. She's been in that San Francisco district since 1987. 1987. Pelosi's decision to not seek reelection comes as she's facing two serious primary challengers from Democrats who are decades younger. I mean, come on at what point do you hang it up? She's a billion years old. She can barely speak anymore. She's been there for 10,000 years. It's time to go. It's very time to go. She released like a 40 minute video trying to commemorate her career as, as a member of Congress. Pelosi served as speaker of House for, for eight years total during both the Obama years and the Trump administration, where she emerged as the President's chief antagonist. And of course, she notably ripped up President Trump's State of the Union address in 2020 after he finished delivering it. And she presided over the House impeaching Trump twice during his first term. Yeah, she's a nasty woman. That Nancy Pelosi has always been a very nasty woman. In fact, here's President Trump reacting to the news yesterday that Nancy Pelosi's decided to finally hang the dentures up. Watch.
- [29:24]
D
I think she's an evil woman. I'm glad she's retiring. I think she did the country a great service by retiring. I think she was a tremendous liability for the country.
- [29:35]
E
And on Dick Shane, I thought she.
- [29:36]
D
Was an evil woman who did a poor job, who cost the country a lot in damages and in reputation. I thought she was terrible. Thank you very much.
- [29:45]
A
Thank you. Tell us how you really feel. Don't hold back next time, Mr. President. She's an evil woman. Woman, the President says, who did a lot of damage to the country. Well, he's right about that. She really is. She did. She's done a great service now by retiring, he says. But she cost the country a lot in her time in office. She really did. Actually, she did cost the country a great deal. Right now, health care costs are absolutely skyrocketing in the United States of America. They're reaching unbelievably high levels as we speak. And that you can thank Nancy Pelosi for that. Nancy Pelosi, in her unholy alliance with the insurance companies and the pharmaceutical companies, her decision to skyrocket health care costs by quarterbacking the passage of that. That poorly named in like literally a lie. Affordable Care Act, Obamacare. You can thank her for that. She did that. And if you go back to 2010, that's where Nancy Pelosi uncorked this famous declaration that would haunt us forever since Obamacare's passage. Watch Nancy Pelosi cut 6 back in 2010 talking about Obamacare before it passed.
- [30:58]
E
That it is legislation for the future, not just about health care for America, but about a healthier America where preventive care is not is not something that you have to pay a deductible for or out of pocket that prevention, prevention, prevention is about diet, not diabetes. It's going to be very, very exciting. But we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it. Away from the fog of the controversy.
- [31:33]
A
We have to pass the bill so you can find out what is in it. An expression that would live unfortunately in the minds of anybody who's paid any attention to American politics ever since. We have to pass it to find out what's in it. And they passed it and we found out what was in it. In fact, Obamacare became the source of the lie of the year several years back coming out of Obama's mouth. If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor. Not true. Millions of Americans actually lost access to the doctors that they preferred. They lost access to the quality insurance that they had. The cost of their insurance skyrocketed. Their deductibles and their premiums went up and the value of the service that they were seeking went down. And you heard Pelosi say in that clip, oh, more diet and less diabetes. I'm sorry, what? That's not what happened. The, the health problems in America only grew worse after that. Diabetes, and, and the incidence of it grew worse after that. There wasn't some great national revolution of health. In fact, health care costs have never been higher and health afflictions have never been greater in the United States. Thanks, Nancy. Great work. You really nailed it. And now this government shutdown that they're undertaking, where Democrats claim they're doing it because they want to fight for your health care costs. It's a cover up. It is a cover up of how expensive Obamacare has made everything. That's what this is. You want to fix health care, get the government out of it, stop it. Don't make it so the doctors spend 90% of their time on paperwork. They should spend 90% of their time on patients. That's what they should be doing. But that's not where they are. Thanks to Nancy Pelosi. Thanks a lot, you cruel woman, Nancy Pelosi. So, yeah, she leaves behind a really dishonest, disgusting legacy. And, you know, Democrats celebrate her for one reason and one reason only, because they view her as a bloodthirsty vehicle for power that, you know, you've even got people on the right right now who are pointing like, well, you know, I don't really like a lot about Nancy Pelosi, but she was a ruthless leader. Well, you can say that Again, here's her daughter describing it. Cut seven. Here's Alexandra Pelosi describing how bloodthirsty her mother actually is. Just what are your feelings about this person who you know quite well, becoming speaker of the House for a second time. She'll cut your head off and you.

E
Won'T even know you're bleeding.
- [34:02]
A

All right, here's the. Here's the thing. Nancy Pelosi's a bitch. I'm sorry. That's not what I meant to say. Here's the thing. Nancy Pelosi has been very bad for our country. She's been very bad for our country. Not good news. And. And she's been in Congress for, like, a billion years. And during that time frame, she's taken every position in the book because she doesn't actually believe in anything other than her party's power. So, for instance, in cut 8, here. Here's Nancy Pelosi claiming that our country needs strong borders. This is back in 2005. We need strong borders. We need sovereignty. I'm sorry, who is this? Yancy Pelosi is this Pelosi watch.
- [38:30]
E
Broken borders. That's an oxymoron. Something we can't tolerate. Borders above their nature, our definition as a nation and our protection as a country. Broken borders, they don't exist. We can't tolerate them. So let's say from the start that we all in this body, and I know I can speak very firmly for the Democrats support strong border control.
- [39:07]
A
Can you even believe? I mean I guess you can. It's not shocking but it is appalling. The fact is this is the same garbage that all of these Democrats have pulled over the course of their much too long careers. Garbage where they stand up. It's garbage. It's total garbage where people like Joe Biden stands up and says we need borders. We need to get illegal aliens out of the country. Obama, Pelosi. And they're just lying. It's just, it's just an endless string of lies. That's the party of open borders. That's the party of millions of illegal aliens imported in our own country at your expense by the way. They stole your money to make it happen. They gave it to these nominally religious organizations and then imported people by the millions. Nancy Pelosi. So yeah, we're looking back on our career. It's a career full of lies. Here's another one. Here's Nancy Pelosi. Yeah, we're going to play her worst hits because she deserves this send off. Here she is saying that shutdowns suck in cut cut nine. Here she is 2013 claiming the worst thing you could possibly do is shut down the government. Now note she just voted to shut down the government.
- [40:17]
E
Here she is join the American people and they're disgust at what happened in terms of the shutdown of government. That's an unthinkable tactic to use as a in the political debate. We have to have common sense as we go forward. We have to go to the table understanding that we cannot shut down and we cannot place in doubt the full faith and credit of the United States of America.
- [40:41]
A
Of course she just voted for a shutdown. Democrats are keeping the government shut down. More people are suffering because of that. You can thank Nancy Pelosi and her fellow cruel anti human Democrats for that very behavior which is a complete and utter mess right now. I'll talk more about the shutdown coming up. I intend to at least because there are ways out of it. And Republicans, let's just like find your testicular fortitude and dominate these Democrats right now. The time, time is of the essence. Let's move. It's got to happen. And then, finally, before we get to Nancy Pelosi's absurd growth in wealth, who can forget her taking a knee in 2020, wearing Kente cloth, pretending like George Floyd had just been sainted. Here she is.
- [41:26]
E
And so many others. George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Amand Arbery.
- [41:36]
A
What a bunch of idiots. Kneeling in the Capitol Visitor center wearing kente cloth. Like, what. What does this have to do with anything? It literally has nothing to do with anything. And they're wearing their. Their little obedient Covid. Masks. The Democrat uniform. And there's Kamala Harris. Whatever happened to her? Another loser. Yeah, just like. Just absolutely doing nothing but dividing the country. Nothing but performative nonsense. Nothing but creating the thinnest possible pretext for why the government always needs more power. That's Nancy Pelosi's record. That's the legacy she leaves behind. One of cruelty and one of power for the government. That's it. And has it meaningfully improved your life? No. Name one thing Nancy Pelosi has done to improve your life. Oh, yeah, no, you're right about that. Retire. Yes, that one. That's the one thing she. Retiring. She's retiring. Here's the thing. Pelosi's become obscenely sick. Excuse me? She is obscenely sick. She's become obscenely rich during her time in office. You ready for the numbers? Here, check this out. Nancy Pelosi's net worth since she arrived in Congress of June of 1987. When she got into office. You ready for that? She was worth. Her family was worth around $3 million. She was already worth a lot of money. That's 1987. That's a lot of money. As of this year, Nancy Pelosi is estimated to have a net worth of in the vicinity of 250 to 260 million dollars. We put that differently. She's worth at least a quarter billion dollars now. Yeah. Some estimates are even higher, claiming that she's around 400 million. Getting closer to half a billion dollars. Well, that's quite a return on investment. In fact, Nancy Pelosi's net worth since she arrived in Congress has gone up by 8300%. 8300%. In case you're wondering, the S&P 500 went up during that same timeframe by 5210%. In other words, Nancy Pelosi outpaced the stock market by 3,000%. That's. That's. Man, she knows how to pick up, doesn't she? That's that's quite a, an investment track record. How does that happen? You ask people on Wall street, you know, can you beat the market by that much? Like never, not in a million years. They have trouble beating the index funds. In fact, it's kind of the, the rare firm who can do it with a lot of success and, and regularity. Nancy Pelosi beats it like crazy. Like 8300% to the S&P is 5000%. Yeah, I think there's something more going on here big time. And so, as she leaves the government, perhaps it might be worth the United States Department of Justice adding another investigation to the pile. Perhaps they have one into Nancy Pelosi. How the heck did she become so rich? And I think most of us can safely assume it's been at our expense. Insider trading. Insider trading. And by the way, in recent years, as Congress has considered banning insider trading and stopping it from happening, she has often been one of the biggest opponents to fixing that problem. So looking back, Nancy Pelosi's record. Yeah, that's. That's it. That's it. And then finally, I want to remind you the extent to which she treated Donald Trump specifically, like crap. Yes, she led all of the impeachments against him. And there were even times, as is shared to us by the great X account today, Maze Moore, that Nancy Pelosi straight up claimed that Donald Trump was colluding with the Russians. In fact, we have cold hard evidence for that. Here's Pelosi treating our President Cut four like utter garbage.
- [45:43]
E
This week we saw cold hard evidence of the Trump campaign, indeed, the Trump family eagerly intending to collude possibly with Russia.
- [45:58]
A
Listen to the phrasing, the weaselly, disgusting phrasing of a claim like that. Did you hear that? She said we have cold hard evidence of the Trump campaign possibly colluding with Russia. What? That is not cold hard evidence. It's warmed over nonsense. You have cold hard evidence of something possibly happening. Well, that doesn't, that's like a contradiction in terms. It doesn't even make any sense as you babble it out of your dentures. But that's who Nancy Pelosi has always been. Nancy Pelosi is defined by the wrap up smear. She will say whatever it takes to leave in the minds of Americans that her political opponents are evil and that somehow she's the force for good. But of course, it's a perfect inversion of the truth. So the good news today is Nancy Pelosi's leaving. The bad news is she leaves a trail of destruction behind her. She really does. Goodbye. Don't let the door hit you on the way out. Nancy Pelosi leaving Congress. All right, let me. Yes, the wrap up smear. Rachel knows. Rachel knows. Is the wrap up smear. It's. It's what you do. Remember she bragged about that at one point. Let me take you to this, the Sydney Sweeney thing. Now, remember Sydney Sweeney? She did the American Eagle ad. You remember this? Let me show you the ad. I don't know if the fellows pulled it, so I'm going to pull it for you. Here is a Sydney Sweeney. Here she is doing the American Eagle spot earlier this year that attracted so much controversy because I think because people hate white chicks who wear jeans and look good. I think that's what this was. Watch this. Remember this?
- [47:42]
F
I'm not here to tell you to buy American Eagle jeans. And I definitely won't say that they're the most comfortable jeans I've ever worn or that they make your butt look amazing. Why would I need to do that? But if you said that you want to buy the jeans, I'm not going to stop you. But just so we're clear, this is not me telling you to buy American Eagle jeans.
- [48:08]
A
Sydney Sweeney has. For jeans.
- [48:10]
F
You see what I did there, right?
- [48:12]
A
Sydney Sweeney has great jeans. Remember that? So what spilled out of that was a full blown left wing psycho fest. Oh, no, she's got great genes. Oh, that's. Oh, she's a white supremacist. You see what she's doing? She's a Nazi. Oh, she's a eugenicist. Yeah. But first of all, this is really rich coming from the left, which is the source of all the eugenics that you could possibly imagine. Margaret Sanger is a eugenicist who was seeking to abort as many black babies as humanly possible. That continues to this very day. A million children disproportionately in black families are being killed every year by Planned Parenthood. And that's because of the eugenics that came to us from the American left. So spares the lectures about the, the, the eugenics argument. No, it was a play on words. It was saying that she's got great genes. Genes being the pants she's wearing. And she's an attractive woman. Well, that's good genetics. She's got. She's attractive. That's true. If you're an attractive black woman, an attractive Hispanic woman, if you're attractive, you got great genes. That's the whole thing. Don't have to read any more into it than that. It's a cheeky ad and it worked really well. Actually. American Eagle stock price went up because the revenues went up because they sold a lot of jeans. In fact, the left wing hysteria as a result of all of it attracted a lot more attention to American Eagle, which they hadn't had in years. So win, win, win, win, win. It worked perfectly fine. So here's. Let me take you to what happened after this. We just. So the President of the United States, President Donald Trump shared the ad. He thought it was great. He shared it on social media, thought it was fun. And then we just saw gq just in an interview with Sydney Sweeney to ask her about all of this. Like, what do you think of, of all of the attention that President Trump and the American people gave to this? And are you at all, like, ashamed of the fact that, that people think that this has something to do with white supremacy? Watch Sydney Sweeney's reaction to GQ when she's asked about this. Take a look.
- [50:24]
F
The criticism of the content, which was basically that maybe specifically in this political climate, like white people shouldn't joke about genetic superiority, that was kind of like the criticism, broadly speaking. And since you are talking about this, I just wanted to give you an opportunity to talk about that specifically. I think that when I, I have an issue that I want to speak about, people will hear.
- [50:52]
A
She didn't take the bait. She didn't take the bait. She was like, no, not really. I don't want to take. I'm not really addressing that. That's like, kind of silly. Not gonna do that. If I have something I want to talk about, I'll talk about it. Dumb. In that same interview with gq, she was asked like, what did you think when Trump tweeted the ad and posted it on Truth Social? What was that like? She said it was surreal. That's it. This is the way you handle this stuff? I mean, she could have gone a step further. She could have dunked on her. Like, who cares? Are you serious? You got to be an idiot to believe that. But it said no. She just, she, she handled it the right way. She kind of went with the Michael Jordan. You know, Republicans buy sneakers too. It's totally fine. So good for Sydney Sweeney. And that's the way to play it. It's also a sign that the woke left is on the decline that their, their moral blackmail is collapsing. Their ability to control the conversation by hectoring you is just falling into the basement. Doesn't work anymore. Sydney Sweeney is not falling for it. She doesn't care about it. She's perfectly happy to have all that attention. She wants more contracts like this and she's not going to crap on the company that hired her to sell their jeans. It's been a super successful relationship. She knows who's buttering her bread. She's fine with it and she should be. I like. Insofar as we have seen a lot of decline in the country, right, led by people like Nancy Pelosi and the out of control woke radical left, there are signs of optimism out there. Like the fact is more people are willing to say out loud than even just a couple of years ago. You know this. You can see this all over the place. More people are willing to say out loud very obviously true things. People, especially in corporate America, were being hectored into. Not admitting that men and women are real categories. No, they're totally real, it turns out. And one can't be the other. That's not possible. And no, men should not be in women's sports. It's a matter. It's like a totally common sense thing. It's a 97.3 issue. It wasn't like that though, a couple years ago. In fact, a lot of people were being cowed into silence. They were sort of genuflecting to all of this in the hopes that their lives wouldn't be destroyed by the prevailing forces of the left. Most Americans just want to be viewed as decent. They'd be like, look, I'm a decent person. Just stay out of my life. Live and let live. This is the way most people think. But that was never good enough for the left. The left saw your attitude of decency and said, we're going to exploit that. We're going to exploit that decency and then we're going to morally browbeat you into submission. So they tried and they did it with some success. We saw all sorts of struggle sessions, people being screamed at on the streets in 2020, people trying to dine outside al fresco just eating a sandwich in Washington D.C. being screamed at by mobs of crazy people reenacting the Chinese Cultural Revolution right here in the United States of America. You better chant Black Lives Matter. You better get the hell away from my table. I'm eating my lunch here. That attitude, the attitude of like, buzz off. That attitude is back. That's a great development for the country. And you can thank quite a few people for that. You can thank all of the conservatives who've spoken out. You can thank yourself and the role that you played. You can thank the people who Voted for Donald Trump. You can thank Donald Trump for making sure that people understood this. And with Trump's election, guess what happened with corporate America. That world where Sydney Sweeney gets to do that ad and sell all those jeans, doing something that every clothing company imagina bull has always tried to do with advertising, which is cute chick sells clothing. That world is back because Donald Trump is back. You can't underestimate how deeply intertwined the politics is from the culture. Andrew Breitbart had a phrase, a great expression, that politics is downstream from culture, but this go around, it's a symbiotic thing. In fact, culture is kind of downstream from politics right now. The reason for that is because when you said, screw you, I'm bringing back normalcy, and you voted for Trump to do it, you sent a really clear message to corporate America. You said, the rest of you better get on board with this. We want normal back. My friend Chris Plan has a great expression. Remember normal? Yeah. Remember normal. Remember when things were just normal? When abnormality wasn't mandated, when you didn't have to wear a Covid mask, where you didn't have to dye your hair, Something weird, where you didn't have to accept that there were men in the women's room, where you didn't have to abuse children, where you didn't have to abide by that, where the government wasn't in charge of raising families, where our borders were actually closed, where we get to have some sense of who was coming into the country people could assimilate. Remember normal? Normal was great. Let's bring back normal. So a vote for Trump in every successive election, as theatrical as he has been throughout his career, and as big of a personality as he is, the truth is, every time we vote for him, it's been a vote for normal. That's all we want. We're not asking for much, but at the same time, we're asking for a lot. We have to reverse the abnormality of our culture. We have to do it as rapidly as possible. Pretty great. Anyway, thank you very much to Sidney Sweeney for Standing up for Normal. Thank you. For you, the great audience of this program, for Standing up for Normal. And we'll continue to do it. Some programming notes for you. I am getting in a hunting trip, which I'm super excited about. I've been, like, looking forward to it all year. I've got a hunting trip coming up starting next week.
