Full Episode
The second no Kings protests are Saturday and the Trump administration is pretending not to care, but they're clearly panicking because these could be the biggest since Donald Trump came back to office. Now, Fox News is already warning viewers to stay away. Treasury Secretary Scott Besant had a meltdown about it.
And meanwhile, Bernie Sanders and AOC did a town hall where they are tearing into the health care scam. on CNN. We're going to break down all of it, including the delusion spreading through Trump's cabinet. And we will start with the desperate attempt to downplay what is coming this weekend. We're also going to speak to Adelita Grijalva, who won her election.
But Maga Mike Johnson refuses to swear her in. I will ask her, does she ultimately plan to vote to release the Epstein files once she is sworn in? And lastly, J.D. Vance is covering for the I Love Hitler leak, saying these are just kids at the end of the day. All of that and more today. All right.
The No Kings protests are back this weekend and the Trump administration is both trying to project strength. But they are really terrified that these are going to be huge. Authoritarians don't like public displays of displeasure with what they are doing, and they will go to the ends of the earth to try to either prevent those protests from being public or from happening altogether if they can.
Donald Trump is panicking about it. He said yesterday in the Oval Office with a very confused looking Kash Patel standing over his right shoulder. They have their day coming up, but nobody is really going to be there. Nobody is really going to be there. And of course, what Trump means is I hope nobody goes. Stupid move. And they don't want to talk about it.
You know, they have their day coming up. I hear very few people going to be there, by the way. But they have their day coming up and they want to have their day in the sun. But They should really make a deal. So what we're doing, I mean, they call him Darth Vader, but he's actually a very nice person, Russell Vogt. But Russell Vogt is really terminating tremendous numbers of Democrat.
Yeah, he's terminated doing all sorts of termination for an administration that claims not to be worried about the No Kings protests. They are spending a lot of time and their media friends are spending a lot of time saying, oh, nobody's really going to go to this thing. Now, the truth is that we could see record turnout here.
We're going to talk about the three and a half percent concept in a moment. And they are recruiting their media allies to try to convince people to stay home. Here is Sean Hannity after interviewing the Prince of Darkness, Stephen Miller. Here's Hannity doing his part to help the regime, saying, stay away from these rallies. It's not a good idea. It's just just stay home.
It'll be much better at home.
