moscow it should probably just be a stand-up cameo this is funny stuff right here play this clip i was listening to the ranking member and she brought up uh something about trump talking about alcatraz and of course look this is just another distraction to divert attention away from the tariffs or rising prices or the struggle on main street but since we're having a hearing on prisons it's lucky timing for me so

Three times more expensive than any prison to operate in 1959 Alcatraz was. It needs about $250 million to shore up the infrastructure and utilities. All food and water has to be barged in. Sewage has to be barged out. The facility is almost 100 years old. And so I don't get it. In the days of Doge where we're cutting budgets, we got to find savings. Now we're going to what?

We're going to cut Medicaid and SNAP so that we can pour money into Alcatraz. First of all, have you been to Alcatraz recently? It literally is a, it's a rust box walking around. You need a tetanus shot just to go into the building. Do we still give tetanus shots or has RFK gotten rid of those? I can't, I can't keep up. And so listen, Where did the president get this idea all of a sudden?

Where did he get the idea? Perhaps he was watching Escape from Alcatraz, right? And I brought boards because some people are visual learners. Perhaps he was watching Escape from Alcatraz by Clint Eastwood. Actually, funny part about that, it was actually on television in South Florida. It was on PBS South Florida over the weekend when Trump was at Mar-a-Lago.

In fact, he made his announcement just hours after it aired. You know PBS, the programming that he's trying to get rid of, so just in case you're keeping up, right? It's two dolls for girls and zero Elmo's, okay? But maybe I'm wrong. Maybe it wasn't. Maybe it wasn't that. Maybe he was watching The Rock with Sean Connery. You know this one.

This is where Sean Connery goes back to Alcatraz because he originally escaped Alcatraz and needed like an expert on chemical weapons. Maybe the president was just Netflixing and chilling, like watching The Rock, which is not to be confused with The Rock. That's a different person. And then the president's really excited about these sharks. He's talking about all the sharks and the person escaped.
