Time Text
Get ready for an outstanding entertainment program.
The Jimmy Dore show.
So we haven't spoken with Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in a while.
Let's give him a ring.
Bob Al.
Bob Al.
Excuse me?
What the hell?
Oh, you're just saying your name.
Who is this?
Mr. Secretary, this is Jimmy Dore.
Okay.
Look, after getting railroaded by that NPR lady the other day, I decided to take a break for talking with reporters.
You may talk to my staff if you like, but I have to let you go.
All right.
I'm not a reporter, Mr. Secretary.
I'm a citizen journalist.
I don't really know what that means, per se.
So I guess I could talk to you.
So when you were talking with Mary Louise Kelly.
See, this is exactly what I did want to talk about.
She claims that you yelled at her and swore during your conversation.
Okay, okay, that is a lie, a slander, and a mistruth.
I did not yell at her.
I did not fucking swear.
Hey, don't take that tone with me, sir.
Okay, all right.
Jimmy, can you even find Ukraine on an app?
What does that have to do with...
But the American people don't care.
The American people, they don't know.
Could you even find Ukraine on a map?
Yes, I could.
No, no, you couldn't.
Yes.
No, there's no way.
And you know how I know?
Because I can't.
And I'm Secretary of State.
If I can't find it, then people who are below me can't either.
That makes zero sense, sir.
No, no, that makes infinity sense, actually.
the opposite.
Look, the Trump administration seems to think because the people who voted into power are stupid, then everyone is stupid.
Everyone is not stupid.
Therefore, some of us are able to see how stupid all of you are.
See?
Now, look here, you internet weasel.
I don't know who you think you are, but I am sick and tired of people like you thinking that you know anything.
Who do I think I am?
I'm an American who's paying attention.
That's who.
And quite frankly, people like you should be scared shitless of people like me if for no other reason than I'm not going to be shouted down by you, you amoral, spineless, aspiring war criminal.
Okay, okay, sorry, sorry, sorry.
My bad.
My bad.
Yeah.
My bad.
My bad.
I'm sorry.
You have to understand.
I'm just shouting at women and children and dogs and cats.
People that I have firing power over.
So I forgot that actual men couldn't shout back at me.
Sorry.
It's okay, Mr. Secretary.
Just don't let it happen again.
Oh, I won't.
I won't.
Don't worry about it.
And I'm sorry I lost my temper, too.
Oh, don't be.
Don't be.
I probably deserved it.
Hey, Jimmy.
Yes, Mr. Secretary.
Where is the Ukraine?
Uh-huh, on a map.
It's the giant landmass just west of Russia with the coastline along the Black Sea.
What?
There's a Black Sea?
Yes, there's a Black Sea.
What happened to it?
Why is it black?
It's not black.
Nothing happened.
That's just its name.
Oh.
It was probably founded by someone whose last name was Black.
Yes, Mr. Secretary.
Mr. Black founded the sea.
Right.
Right, right, right, right, right.
See, this is my favorite part of the job.
Collecting information, collecting data, analyzing it, in ways that will strengthen our relationships with our allies overseas.
Speaking of, I have to get going.
I'm heading overseas myself.
Oh, really?
Where are you headed?
Ugh, actually.
Really?
What a coinky dink.
Yeah, just sort of threw a dart on the map.
Will you tell us what you did do there when you get back?
I'm afraid it's going to be classified information.
I really just can't.
Mikey!
Sorry, sorry, my bad.
Okay, yeah, I'll tell you.
Everybody, welcome to this week's Jimmy Dore Show.
Our next live Jimmy Dore Show is February 9th in Tempe, Arizona.
Then we go to Sacramento, San Jose, Miami, and Chicago.
Chicago go to jimmy doorcomedy.com for a link for all the tickets to all our live shows and now let's get to the jokes before we get to the jokes shall we did you know that that hashtag hashtag compliment a politician did you hear about that hashtag compliment a politician that was trending on twitter so i decided to participate and here's my first one hashtag liz warren i applaud you for not being tied down to any policy especially not honesty how about this one joe biden dick cheney set the bar for
winning VP personalities, and I strongly believe you're one climate activist conflict away from telling someone to go fuck themselves.
This all under the hashtag complimented politician.
Hashtag complimented politician.
Tom Steyer, good thing you're running for president.
I can't think of anything else you could possibly do to help the planet with a mere billion dollars.
Hey, Pete Buttigieg, I applaud you for thinking for yourself.
Your dad was a Marxist, And you're definitely not.
Turns out the apple can fall flat.
far from the tree and land in a billionaire's wine cave hey George W. Bush, whether it's dancing on Ellen or dodging a shoe, you're always quick on your feet.
Also, you truly do love the USA.
Though, if I were you, I would love one of the few countries that wouldn't throw me in jail immediately, too.
All right.
I don't know about you, but I'm having a tough week.
I dropped my rice in a bag of iPhones, and now my toilet won't work.
Hey, breaking news on Twitter.
Right now, the death of Mr. Peanut is trending higher than that of the impeachment trial.
I'd like to become enraged over Joe Rogan endorsing Bernie Sanders, but I'm too busy lying to myself about Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden's history of opposing gay marriage.
Nice.
Hey, rumor has it that it's called the Baghdad Green Zone because that's where you can get hit by a low-carbon footprint mortar.
I mean, wow, I still can't believe that somebody's actually firing rockets at our embassy in the middle of a country we destroyed.
And if I hear one more person say we don't need another long-form improv class, I swear to God, I'm going to take that suggestion and use an object and a location to create a scene for a half an hour.
Hey, what's coming up on this week's show?
Fake outrage over Joe Rogan.
Plus, the DNC stacks their convention committee with Bernie hating corporatists.
Plus, a new Emberson poll is out, and the results just may surprise you.
Or will it?
And the Washington Post's unhinged Bernie bashing signals the establishment is nervous.
Plus, we got phone calls from Mike Pompeo, Mitt Romney, Bernie Sanders, and Chuck Schumer, plus a lot lot more.
That's today on the Jimmy Door show.
And I just want to show you, there's a new Emerson poll out.
There's a new Emerson poll.
Did you see the new Emerson poll?
Here's the new Emerson poll.
I'm going to show it to you.
Oh.
Emerson College polling.
This was taken January 23rd through the 26th.
Democratic caucus voters and it looks like MM Comma N equals 450.
Yeah.
So that's weird.
But we know, what are they saying?
That there's a 4.6%.
Plus or minus.
Yeah, plus or minus 456.
Right.
So the margin of error is 4.6%.
It's got Bernie Sanders ahead at 30%.
If you read the email from the Democratic Governors Association, they have Biden winning ahead.
Isn't that funny?
I wish I had that.
I would like to show it.
Biden, 21%.
Klobuchar, 13%.
That's on the strength of Bill Maher's endorsement, I'm sure.
The Bill Maher boner.
Yeah, she didn't really get that Rogan bump the way Bernie did.
Warren is now lower than Klobuchar.
That's what you get for falsely accusing an ally of sexism.
That's what you get.
You fall down below Amy Klobuchar in the polling.
Who's throwing staples now?
Who's throwing Staplers?
For joy.
She's moved up.
Buddha Gig next.
It's a strong 10%.
Booty care.
I just like that booty care.
Booty care.
Styre bought his way to 5%.
Steyer bought his way to 5%.
Strong 5.
Yang at 5%.
And Gabbard at 5%.
Look at that.
Mixed mode and N equals 450 is referring to the number of people that were polled.
Oh, that's the sample size.
Oh, okay.
So the sample size was 450 people.
They can tell this by asking 450 people.
That seems like a small sample.
Yeah.
But they say it's 4.6%.
If you had a bigger sample, that would go down, right?
The margin of error goes down with the bigger sample, right?
Isn't that how it works?
It goes up.
Yeah.
So the smaller the sample, the less error you have.
Why don't you pull one person?
Then you're going to crush it.
You pull one person.
You're going to nail it.
Then it says Delaney.
I don't think these people are still in the race.
Delaney, I think, is still in.
Delaney's still in, I read.
Deval Patrick.
Deval Patrick doesn't know if he's in or not.
Deval Patrick sounds like a very high-end line of tobacco that they would sell in the 60s.
Or perfume?
Yes, I was saying perfume.
Or a perfume.
That you could put on your Patrick.
Deval.
Oh, Deval Patrick.
Oh, I'll put some Duval on my Patrick.
And then Bennett.
And then someone else is actually doing better.
Someone else is crushing Bennett and Patrick.
Basically, basically, all of us are beating Bennett and Patrick.
That's right.
I'm beating them.
I'm someone else.
Also, someone else tied with Delaney.
And Delaney's been on the debate stage.
Talk about a guy your message is not catching on.
So what's in it for a guy like who cares?
Oh, he has money in the health insurance industry.
That's right.
That's what's in it for him.
Okay, so there's the Emerson College polling of 450 people with a scientific plus or minus of 4.6%.
Bernie's crushing it, crushing it.
Like he should have.
And so do you think this means, I don't think this means this.
Do you think this means his strategy is working?
Or do you just think that the other people suck?
I think it's the other people suck so much and that Bernie's policies are, you know, people are ready for them.
I don't think he's, you know, it's great they didn't back down from Joe Rogan.
Right.
So maybe they've turned over a new leaf at the campaign.
Well, he's done some good things as of recent, and I hope those are the reasons for the surge.
I mean, his moment with the New York Times where that video certainly got more traction than that endorsement they gave of Klobuchar and Warren.
And, you know, his moment, you know, the Rogan endorsement.
And then the fact that he's sticking to, you know, attacks on actual policy.
He's not afraid to share those Joe Biden social security videos, and he's doing more of that.
That's a good thing.
You know, the teach-out apology was a mistake, but, you know, fortunately, it's been overshadowed by other stuff, I think.
But that, and, you know, Warren's not doing herself any favors, which is good.
And Biden is, you know, slowly sinking himself, too.
I did not know Elizabeth Ward could be this unlikable.
Dude, I mean, I listened to that Michael Moore podcast after you recommended it.
And I think, I mean, that podcast, I really loved it a lot because he did not, he did not try to downplay who he is at this point.
He's saying, like, these are my colleagues at this point.
I'm not just some filmmaker running around Michigan anymore.
I think he still lives in Michigan, so technically he is, but he's, you know, on a much bigger scale, and he wasn't hiding that.
He was like, I've worked with these people.
These are my colleagues.
I let Liz Warren slide on so many things for so many years.
And he gave just a blistering laundry list.
That podcast is really powerful.
Yeah.
Well, additionally to that, when he was examining that he was talking about like, she's been in my films.
I've had her featured.
I've worked with her.
I know her.
But what I found kind of surprising is it seemed as if she participated in his world before he was able to recognize the fact that she had come from a Republican background.
Like that was almost like he had kept blinders onto that.
Correct.
And, you know, again, I want to say when you were sharing the list of, I forget the gentleman's last name, Kevin, that we were highlighting.
Right.
Oh, okay.
And he was going time and time again, just showing how all of these people who are going to work on the Democratic campaign have deep and long, you know, deep roots in a conservative or corporate world.
And it's like, we're screaming at the top of our lungs, we want progress.
And, you know, that, you know, showing and examining how Michael Moore ignored her bad behavior for all this time.
I'm done.
You know, it's like, that's why I kept saying these people sound like Republicans.
They don't just sound like Republicans.
Right?
They demonstrate they're consistently delivering on a conservative platform.
Let's remember that worldwide, Bernie Sanders is a centrist.
He's not, he's not a radical lefty.
The stuff that Bernie Sanders is for, right-wingers are for in the rest of the Western world.
Yeah.
Free college, universal health care.
Oh, yeah.
When it comes to healthcare, the Tories are to the left of the Democratic Party.
Yeah.
The Tories over in England are to the left of the Democratic Party here.
So here's some more garbage that they're throwing at Bernie because he's leading in the polls and it looks like they're not going to be able to stop him without cheating.
So they're doing their, while they are cheating right now, and we don't even know the ways they're cheating right now.
We don't know.
We will only know after the election, like we did last time, that we found out that Hillary Clinton was funneling all the money they said they were raising for down ballot tickets.
They would do fundraising.
No, this is going for the people who are running for state legislatures and Congress.
No, it was going right to her campaign.
They lied.
They committed fraud.
Nothing happened.
They committed a bigger fraud by telling people who were donating to the DNC that they were neutral.
They weren't.
That was a lie.
That was also fraud.
That DNC was being run by the Hillary Clinton campaign against their own charter, and they lied about it publicly.
So that's how they cheated him last time.
And then, of course, the media, right?
So then the corporate media is biased against him, 16 negative stories in 16 hours.
Washington Post.
So they're doing it again.
So here it comes.
Here's Jennifer Rubin, hack for the Washington Post.
While he might perfunctorily chide his followers, Sanders hired one of social media's most aggressive trolls, David Sirota.
Sanders cannot possibly mean to control animosity springing from his camp while hiring people infamous for such.
They're trying to make David Sirota seem like David Brock.
David Brock, you're thinking of David Brock, who worked for the Hillary Clinton campaign and did correct the record.
David Brock, who smeared Anita Hill.
Remember that?
That David Brock.
That guy who slut-shamed Anita Hill.
Do you remember that guy?
He went to work for the Clintons, and then he did correct the record, which was an angry, aggressive, smearing, lying, obnoxious group of well-paid trolls on social media that would lie and slander anybody who was progressive and who was against Hillary Clinton.
You're thinking of David Brock.
Is that what she's doing?
Well, that's what David Brock does, but let's be fair and talk about what David Sirota does.
What David Sirota does is he'll smear people like Joe Biden by showing videos of Joe Biden talking.
Tomato tomato.
Tomato tomato.
You know, Jimmy, I was wondering if Jennifer Rubin won the prize today for perfunctorily.
Yes.
Oh, there's the word of the day.
Yeah, I think Ruby chose that one earlier.
So this is the headline of the thing she opinion, Bernie Sanders, Trump-like campaign is a disaster for Democrats.
Presidential politics is about building, not dividing.
It's a disaster.
The guy who could beat Trump, this is a disaster.
Could they be more transparently full of shit?
Like, this isn't working.
And they're just going to keep doing more of it.
This is funny.
You mean a Trump-like campaign that won?
Trump-like campaign.
You know, though, what?
That's hard for Jennifer to process.
Yeah, that's like when Barry Weiss goes on Joe Rogan and says, oh, you know, how Trump just excited his base.
And now I'm afraid the left is going to do that too.
Yeah, I'm afraid they're going to copy a winning strategy.
Remember what Trump did?
He humiliated a party the entire country was sick of, and then he won an election?
Bernie Sanders might do that.
Oh, no.
I'm so excited.
So this all falls under the category of this.
Bernie Bro was rude to me online.
That's it.
And I intend to.
And the subtitle is, and I intend to cite this as the chief piece of evidence in my forthcoming argument for why poor people shouldn't have health insurance.
Yes.
That pretty much.
That's the guy who wrote that very funny guy, Gibson McFuck.
I've tweeted McFuck a few times.
Esquire.
Mr. McFuck is a highly respected political pundit.
His news book is the book Looker's Guide to Iron Fisted Spin is now available for pre-order at Amazon.com.
Mr. McFuck, you have a new follower.
I've been tweeting McFuck for years.
He never gets back to me.
So Jennifer Rubin writes this, tweets this bullshit.
And then this guy says, Soledad O'Brien and Zerlina Maxwell routinely retweet this warmongering neocon who called Obama a Muslim sympathizer.
That's who Jennifer Rubin is.
Do you want to know who Jennifer Rubin is?
She's a warmongering neocon who called Obama a Muslim sympathizer.
That's who gets to write the opinion piece up against Bernie in the Washington Post.
Why?
Because Jeff Bezos is also a neoliberal corporatist guy, psychopath who wants to screw you and keep you from health care and college and a better life.
Why?
Because he's a psychopath.
Jeff Bezos is a psychopath.
I think that's not debatable.
So Soledad O'Brien and Zerlina Max will routinely retweet this warmongering neocon who called Obama a Muslim sympathizer in case they want to get pissy about who Joe Rogan said he'd vote for.
Just so you know.
Nice tweet.
Very nicely done.
That is.
Zamilo.
Zamilo.
And you're not nobody, Zamillo.
You're a somebody.
That's right.
That's a good tweet.
People hate it when an intellectual posts things they can't refute because he uses irrefutable sources.
Calling him a troll, talking about David Sirota.
Yeah.
Calling him a troll makes you look like a complete moron.
Who the fuck are you?
Then he says, why would the Washington Post hire somebody who sounds no different than the average uneducated Trump moron yelling shit from the street?
I'll tell you why.
Because her opinion lines up with Jeff Bezos' opinion.
That's why they hire her.
Jeff Bezos hates Bernie Sanders and is afraid of him just as much as Hillary Clinton, as Donald Trump, as Democratic National Committee, as Chuck Schumer, as Nancy Pelosi.
That's right.
They all hate him and fear him just the same.
That's why Jeff Bezos hired.
That's why the Washington Post hires her to write that stuff.
Just so you know, because it's got nothing to do with their smart or factual or they're good writers or they have talent or they have a great reputation because they broke a story.
No, it's because they are going to write something that lines up with the political point of view of Jeff fucking Bezos.
That's the only reason.
So there you go.
So that more of that.
Yeah, I mean, sarcasm aside, David Sirota is so civil, like with everything he does.
He is so, so civil.
That's their plan.
And it's like, and the person who tweeted that, he uses irrefutable sources.
You know what he does a lot?
He uses first-hand sources.
He's like, you know, and Bernie's starting to do that too, which is good.
Like, hey, don't take my word on Joe Biden on Social Security.
Listen to Joe.
Here's footage of Joe, who doesn't know you can find stuff on the internet.
Here's what he has to say about Social Security, right?
You decide.
Yeah, that's so now their play is to try to make it out that David Sirota is some kind of aggressive, some kind of asshole.
Like, as if he's a David Brock.
Again, the exact, so this is, this is just crazy.
And people, I think people see through it because Bernie's surging.
And it seems to be one of those things where the more they come at him, the stronger it makes him.
And I just hope he understands that.
I hope that he doesn't, again, do any of that bullshit capitulation that he makes so much ground.
Like, he's not, he's not, he's not rescinding that Joe Rogan endorsement.
He's not fucking doing that.
So that's a big step, I think.
Yeah, and I think, at least I hope that he's seeing that the teach-out apology was a mistake.
And because it was a big mistake for a number of reasons, because Joe Biden's going to be able to go back to that and point to it.
That's right.
And he has.
He already has.
Like in that why, why, why, why, why moment that Joe Biden has, he pointed out that Bernie apologized again.
So he'll be able to go back to that.
But, you know, when Hillary Clinton kind of hijacked the conversation, it deflected away from that when she, you know, started smearing Bernie again.
So it was almost, it was almost a gift in disguise, unintentionally.
And then Bernie was able to get on message talking about what Joe Biden said on Social Security.
So, but it was still a mistake.
The apology.
Big mistake.
And I'm going to, boy, if Warren Gunnels is going to hear about it again.
I'm going to.
I'm going to.
you you you you Hello.
Come on, you bastards.
Come at me.
I'm ready for you.
Bernie, Bernie, what's wrong?
You're goddamn right, I'm mad.
Even though that's not what you asked.
Everybody's coming for me now that I'm searching at the polls, Chippy, like clockwork.
As a matter of fact, there's so many of them I've had to make lists just to keep track of them.
And then I've had to make a list of my lists.
I'm very organized, and we have a great team here.
You made a list of your lists?
Yeah, I got a list of people, a list of organizations, a list of people and organizations in their emotional support animals.
It's endless.
Who's at the top of your list of people coming out against you?
Well, first of all, Barack Obama, a former president, you may recall him.
And what's his major beef with you again?
He was singing your praises back in 2006 and campaigning for you.
Yeah, well, he says I'm too black.
He told you, he told you that?
He said you have to seek out people who are not like you because that's what he learned about leadership.
But whatever you do, stay away from picket lines and black people because that's when you alienate people who aren't like you, like white people.
That he told me if I got too close to the nomination, he was going to crush me into a pulp because that's what he learned about leadership from John Podesta.
Wow.
That's wow.
Then he asked me to contribute to the Obama Foundation.
Can you believe that bullshit?
Oh, my pocket Ennis.
Well, what did you do?
I said I'm a million-dollar check post-dated to 2060.
You can keep that if you want, checkass.
Who else is coming for you, Bernie?
Well, let's see.
There's the Committee for Nicaraguan Desk Squad, Nunkillers.
Heard of that one?
Yeah.
And the Committee for Committees for Nicaraguan Desk Squad Nunkillers for Christ.
For Christ.
Yeah, their name even has an ellipsis between nunkillers and Christ, so you gotta read it like this.
Nunkillers for Christ.
You don't even see that for Christ coming at you until the last second.
What are you gonna do with this kind of rhetoric, Jimmy?
The mind boggles.
See what I did there?
I put an ellipsis between mind and boggles just to screw it.
That's how insidious this kind of ellipsis abuse is nowadays.
What's the solution?
We need a revolution.
I agree, Bernie.
We need a revolution.
Here's another one.
The People's Coalition against Ben and Jerry's Delicious Ice Cream.
I mean, what the fuck is that about?
Could you possibly be against delicious non-dairy cookie dough chunks?
Has the world gone mad?
I'm as gassed as you are about this, Bernie.
You dick it with that there, but the list of morons who hate me never ends.
There's the Boston Independent Drivers Against Seatbelts.
I asked you who in the world is against seatbelts.
There's the American Postal Workers Union for Dog Bites and Rebies.
I mean, I never heard of that one before.
The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Who Toasters in the Bathtubs.
And the International Brotherhood of Teamsters who hate each other.
Sense, for God's sake, a brotherhood that hates each other?
It's nonsensical, Bernie.
I do agree.
Yeah.
And here's my favorite: the Association of Grammar School Teachers Who Don't Want Your Aunt to Get Chemotherapy.
Are you serious?
Who are these people?
Mic drop.
I'm out of here.

A very nice weekend has just presented itself.
Now, speaking of jagoff nightclub comedians, I have to make a phone call.
Ring ring.
Hello.
Jimmy Dore, Charles Chuck Chaz Ellis Schumer here.
Chaz.
Hi, Chuck.
Master of the Senate, Harvard graduate and class valedictorian of James Madison High School.
What's on your mind, sir?
Super SAT scorer, proud member of the New York State Bar, though I have never practiced law and it's not required to join, but I did anyway.
Regular guest on that edgy daily show with Trevor Powers And second cousin, once removed to Amy Schumer, whom we never talk about in polite circles, though she does make me chuckle with her whimsy.
Hello, my loving public, and good morning to you, sir.
Hi, Chuck.
Now let's get down to brass tags.
Stop bashing John Bolton.
He's a great man who has decided to speak truth to power, and we must respect him for that.
You're not worried about your case relying on the credibility of someone like John Bolton.
Let me sum it up in a little poem I wrote based on my tweets, Jimmy.
Mulvaney, Bolton, Duffy, and Blair.
These are the men from whom we should hear.
We will never give up, so brother, beware.
Mulvaney, Bolton, Duffy, and Blair.
Well, what do you think?
You rhymed Blair with hair.
I mean, here.
Let me unpack this for you, boomer-burn pro.
We will not stop fighting to hear from the people who actually saw what happened and to see the documents.
I swear this on my chinny chin chin.
But you knew this would happen, right?
You knew you'd never have the votes to convict him.
My point is this: if President Trump did nothing wrong, why is he so afraid of reading into evidence John Bolton's manuscript, which I've heard is a scintillating read, by the way?
Why is it that Democrats always find themselves turning to disgusting people they used to hate for help?
Details, schmeatails.
If John Kelly says he believes John Polton, that's good enough for me.
That man has judgment.
Yeah.
He's the adult in the room, remember?
Yeah, you guys said that about John Bolton, too.
To have a fair trial, we must not remit the evidence, shaky and witnesses shit and cringe under pressure like some nervous nelly when we've got great counsel from General John Kelly.
John Kelly lied about torturing prisoners.
He's a war criminal.
These are your defenders of justice.
Jimmy, here's another poem based on my Twitter page.
Some people may not like my style when I offer my hand across the aisle.
But when it comes to winning, there's only one stance.
I'll do what's necessary.
Even crab my pants.
Got a little blue there at the end.
So Joe Biden, I don't know if you know he's been melting down.
And, you know, part of dementia is that you often lash out, right?
And you get, you start, you might even start to become violent, right?
That happens.
So here is a guy in the picture line with Joe Biden.
They're in a line to take a picture, and the guy decides to ask him a question.
But what are we going to do about climate change?
Now, you say you're against pipelines, but then you want to replace these gas lines.
That's not going to work.
We've got to stop building and replacing pipelines.
It's the guy to check.
Go vote for somebody else.
The guy just said, hey, I'm going to support you in the general.
And what did Joe Biden say?
Go vote for somebody else.
I'm going to play you the whole thing.
Joe Biden doesn't need your vote.
At a press conference later, Joe said he plans to combat pipelines by challenging them to push-ups.
Watch, there's more to this.
Watch this.
Thanks a lot, guys.
We're going to have you hear me.
Thank you somebody.
I'm going to vote you in the general.
You're asking a picture of me.
You're coming up and telling me you don't support me.
No, no.
My plan.
Yeah, you did.
So what that guy said to him, he goes, you're not going to vote for me in the private.
He goes, I'll vote you in the general if you treat me right.
He goes, well, I'm not.
Did you hear him?
He goes, well, I'm not.
So fuck you.
Where else you got to go?
You're going to vote for me, the general, and you goddamn know you are.
So I'm going to do a little bit of shame on both these guys.
And which is a different take than I think.
Well, I'll watch.
Well, you know, I just want to say, Steph.
The bottom line is: Joe Biden has no problem telling another white guy, go vote for somebody else.
How do you think he's going to treat a person of color?
Well, he already, there was that, there was that Latino immigration activist.
He did the same thing to that person.
Immediately, that person confronted him and he's like, you know, what are you going to do for me?
Our communities are hurting.
We're concerned.
He goes, go vote for Trump.
Yep.
How disturbing is that?
Yeah, it was beyond disturbing.
This person who has had to endure, I mean, Obama was the deporter-in-chief.
Trump has been absolutely horrific on immigration and Joe Biden.
They're like, hey, how are you going to be different?
Are you going to help us?
Go vote for Trump.
That's what he tells that person.
I think Bernie hired that guy.
Oh, right.
I think you're right.
Yeah.
Bernie hired that guy.
Joe Biden said, go vote for Trump.
Oh, my God.
Yeah.
So let's watch it all the way through.
Here we go.
But what are we going to do about climate change?
No, you say you're against pipelines, but then you want to replace these gas lines.
That's not going to work.
We've got to stop building and replacing pipelines.
We're going to have you hear me.
And he pushed him.
Like, he didn't just tap him.
He pushed him.
Okay.
I'm going to vote you in the general.
You're asking a picture of me.
You're coming up to tell me you don't support me.
No, no, no.
You said I would support you in the general.
In a general.
I'm running for a primer.
We're having a primer.
That's what I'm saying.
Do you believe that Bernie can do something by 2020?
I'm actually supporting Tom Steyer.
Thompson.
That's good.
He's the guy that thinks that's a good idea.
Thanks to his answer online right now.
entire country.
Thank you.
We're happy to get involved.
Do we have a picture?
He still wanted a picture.
He still wanted a picture.
And that guy is, you know, and I disagree with that guy for going for Steyer, but that guy is a gentleman named Ed Fallon who has been in the legislature, the Iowa legislature for years.
And he was also a big climate activist who did like a big walk for climate change along the Dapple pipeline.
And there was a book written about it.
So how did he land on supporting Biden?
So, no, he's landing on supporting Sam Steyer.
Right, which I, to be honest, I don't know.
I mean, I thought that was very surprising, too.
Yeah, so that was surprising that he's supporting, well, a climate activist says he'll support Biden because he's not Trump.
And Biden tells him to go vote for somebody else.
And then this guy says he decides he's going to support a billionaire who got rich exploiting the environment.
Yep.
So I want to tell that guy.
What's his name?
Ed Fallon.
Ed Fallon, that this is a perfect example of voting blue no matter who and unity videos before a primary starts, how stupid they are and counterproductive.
And pledging your vote to him before one vote is cast is also counterproductive.
So I would like to, so that's what you get.
Do you see when you say that?
When you say it's an, I'm going to support you in the general.
Do you?
you see what happens then they tell you to go f yourself now you've given away any power you have over this politician the only power you have Over a politician is the power of your vote.
And that's all he wants.
And if you walk up and go, I'm going to vote for you in the general.
And he's like, well, then get the F out of here.
Why should I change?
Why should I change?
You just pledged your vote to me.
And in fact, get the fuck out of here is what he said without saying fuck.
He hits the guy in the chest, tells him to go vote for somebody else.
You already pledged your vote to me, buddy.
I bet I'll drop an F-bomb before this campaign season over.
Oh, you're wrong.
That's afraid prediction.
He totally will.
Oh, it's great.
You want to see?
So, so do you, do you kind of, I mean, here it is elucidated for you.
Is that a word right here for you?
Here it is.
Everything I've been saying about this stupid strategy of vote blue no matter who and pledge your vote because we got to get rid of Trump.
And here it is.
And Joe Biden, and then you do that, and he says, go pound sand.
But what are we going to do about climate change?
No, you say you're against pipelines, but then you want to replace these gas lines.
That's not going to work.
We got to stop building and replacing pipelines.
All right, thanks for it.
Look how pissed off he looks as soon as the word climate or the phrase climate change is uttered.
Right.
Like it's like, that's one of my triggers because I don't have an answer.
That's right.
I had a good answer in 1986.
I haven't changed it since.
Leave me alone.
And so he says.
We're going to have you.
Thank you so much.
Thank you so much.
I'm going to vote you in the general.
You treat me right now.
He said, I'm going to vote for you in the general if you treat me right.
How about I'm going to vote for you in the general if you have some better policies to do with climate?
Well, either way, go ahead.
Well, either way Joe Biden's answer is still the same.
Well, I'm not.
Yes.
He said, if you treat me right, and Joe Biden said, well, I'm not going to fucking even treat you right.
And not only will I not change my position, I'm not even going to treat you right.
That's okay.
I'm still going to vote for you.
If you're going to vote for Joe Biden, if you're a climate activist and you're going to vote for Joe Biden, you should make that decision five seconds before you walk into the voting booth and preferably drunk.
Why do you got to in January proclaim to the world you're a legislator?
You're proclaiming to the world you're going to support this fucking guy who is in lots of ways worse than Trump because he hides his nefarious bullshit better than Trump does.
Trump doesn't hide it.
Joe Biden does.
There's lots of people who will vote for Joe Biden, like you, even though he screws over everybody.
Black people, working people, people who have health care problems, people who are bankrupt with healthcare problems, people who want a functioning banking system.
He screws over everyone.
Joe Biden does.
And the climate on top of it.
You want to go back to Joe Biden being a leader on climate.
You got to go back about four decades.
You had to go back to somewhere in, I think, 1979.
So here's Joe Biden telling a bunch of people.
I don't know who put this together, but it's fantastic.
So let's watch it.
Then you should vote for somebody else.
You should vote for Trump.
You think I quite understand what a vote for?
You're too old to vote for.
Well, you ought to vote for Shoe Bill.
Okay.
I mean, hey, they say that sometimes experience can lead to some good advice.
And here you go.
Joe Biden's a lot of experience and good advice.
Vote for somebody else.
Taken, Joe.
I'm with you.
I'm going to vote for somebody else.
Yeah.
Joe Biden is letting you know exactly.
He's the, he's, okay.
So when my friends would date men and the guy would turn to him and say, hey, you know, I'm not a solid dude.
You know, I'm not looking for a commitment.
And guess what those women wanted?
A commitment.
A commitment.
So people that vote for Joe Biden, they think he's going to do what for them because he's letting you know every day he's going to do nothing.
Nothing for you.
His whole campaign is about that I'm a nicer guy.
Not that I have a program that's going to help your life.
I'm nicer than Trump.
I'm still not going to give you anything.
Name one policy.
So we're in catastrophic times.
Yes.
Name one policy that Joe Biden has that meets the moment.
Not one.
Can you think of one?
I can't even think of a policy he's championing.
Can you?
At least Elizabeth Warren, you know, she wants to regulate Wall Street and she wants to tax billionaires.
Elite, you know that.
She wants to put a tax every dollar over 50 million or whatever.
You know that.
You know that about her.
Bernie Sanders is going to get you health care.
He's going to get you free college and he's going to get you a minimum wage.
We all know that about him.
Dulce Gabbard's going to end those wars.
We know that about her.
Why is Joe Biden running?
Tom Steyer, his whole thing is climate.
Okay, we got that.
Amy Klobuchar is there, so Bill Maher can get a boner.
What else?
Well, 40 years ago, Joe Biden told us that he would prostitute his services for corporations.
He told us.
And guess what?
40 years later, this is the result of the prostitution.
He couldn't be happier to tell the world that he wants to prostitute himself.
That's right.
That he was up for sale.
This is what you get.
He has been sold.
I think we just answered our own question.
Really?
It's like, yeah, these are all the policies.
Here's where everyone is.
Joe Biden, what's his big thing?
I'm ready to prostitute myself.
Right.
That's Joe Biden's thing.
I'm cool with the wall.
Joe Biden.
That's Joe Biden.
Here's also Joe Biden.
Here's Joe Biden being a creeper.
Watch this.
What the hell, dude?
What are you doing?
She's not 10 years old.
Even if she was, leave her alone.
Isn't that something?
Oh, God.
He won't stop it.
This is from 2008 when he was on the campaign, 2007 C-SPAN.
So he has a history of touching people.
There's a woman shaking his hand.
And that's not enough for him.
And why would he do that?
Because she's attractive.
So I'm going to guess he's saying something about how attractive she is because that's when you grab, you know, if you have a little kid or a dog, look how cute the little dog's face is or a little baby.
Look how cute.
That's a grown woman.
He goes up there and grabs her face.
Like, look how pretty she is.
Like, the f was wrong with you.
Yeah, that's gross.
That's really gross.
And she pulls away immediately.
Immediately.
What are you fucking doing?
Wow.
And watch the guy.
The guy looks at him too.
Right when he grabs it.
Right when he grabs her, the guy.
Watch your hands.
Yeah.
So anyway, there's your Joe Biden.
So if you go to this, go to this guy.
So the Democratic National Committee chair, Tom Perez, issued a list of individuals he nominated for the 2020 Democratic National Convention Committees.
Did you hear about this?
Oh.
Have you heard about this, Ron?
Yeah, you have.
So this guy, Kevin Costella, I hope I'm saying that correctly.
I decided to follow him because he did such an awesome thread on this.
So now I'm following him.
So he says, let's examine some of the individuals.
I'll initially focus on the nominees for the DNC platform committee.
So let's go down to his next tweet.
He says, Dennis McDonough was Barack Obama's chief of staff during his second term.
Did you even know that?
I couldn't.
No, no, I wouldn't.
I couldn't have picked that guy out of a lineup.
Dennis McConnell, that name.
I had a chance.
Really?
And he was the chief of staff?
And I didn't know his.
I didn't know his name.
I was doing a political show.
I didn't know his name.
Yep.
See what I'm talking about?
Big gaps in knowledge.
He also chairs Rework America Task Force, which launched Rework America Business Network with Heidi Capozzi, senior vice president of human resources at Boeing.
It's a lot of grassroots.
Yeah, Tom Perez.
Tom Perez reaching deep into the grassroots of the Democratic Party.
You know, their military industrial complex funders.
So the next one is Rework America Business Network that McDonough helped launch.
Court says its founding members, the following.
Archer Daniels Midland, Boeing, Duke Energy, Kaiser Permanente, McKinsey and Company.
That's where Budigig worked.
Microsoft, Stanley Black, and Decker, Walmart, and Zurich Insurance.
Wow.
Wow, it's right.
That's the Democratic.
That's the Democratic Party.
That's the who-who of who's destroying the country.
That's right.
Or, excuse me, the world.
That's right.
My country is under the world.
Here's another one.
John Hamm portrayed McDonough in a 2019 film, The Report, which told the story of Senate's CIA torture report through perspective of Senate staff for Daniel Jones.
On behalf of the CIA, McDonough advocated for more redactions from the executive summary that was released.
So he wasn't the good guy.
Not the good guy.
He's the bad guy.
So here's Danielle Gray, former Obama administration official, is the senior vice president, chief legal officer, and corporate secretary for Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Carolina.
Oh, so she's going to be on the platform committee.
Oh, fantastic.
These are the people who are running the Democratic Party.
So corporate corporatists are going to be on the committee.
Wow.
To put it mildly, the corporate credits.
If they could put the corporate Blue Cross Blue Shield on the committee, they would.
If they could.
If they could have Jamie Diamond there.
So the next one is, go to the next suite.
Gray was a partner in the New York law firm of Ol Mulverny and Myers, where she advised healthcare companies, financial service institutions, universities, and clients in a range of industries on litigation, internal investigations, and government enforcement actions.
Here's Jake Sullivan.
He's a member of the Alliance for Securing Democracy's Advisory Council.
He was a senior policy advisor for Hillary Clinton's 2016 and 2008 presidential campaign.
Sullivan was also a national security advisor to Vice President Joe Biden.
So eventually they're going to be.
George, yeah, go ahead.
So eventually there are going to be some real progressives being done.
Well, we're going to find out.
Here's Georgia State Senator Nake Williams, served as a member of Obama Victory Fund 2012.
She was one of the top 10 influential African-American bundlers for Obama.
Top contributors to the PAC included employees from Comcast, Goldman Sachs, and Google, et cetera.
Here's Carol Browner.
She's a senior counselor for Albright Stonebridge Group.
Oh, no kidding.
That's a business firm founded in 2009 by former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright.
She worked on climate change policy in the Obama administration.
Clinton's campaign appointed Browner to the 2016 DNC Platform Drafting Committee.
As a Clinton delegate during the 2016 platform drafting committee meeting, she voted against a ban on fracking.
She voted against Medicare for all.
She voted against opposing the Trans-Pacific Partnership.
She voted against keeping fossil fuels in the ground.
Okay, I'm so sorry.
I got to ask you.
Are you telling me this is for the Republican platform?
This is the Democrat.
Absolutely no difference.
Here's Mary Kay Henry is the president of S. And here's another one.
Mary Kay Henry is the president of SEIU.
In 2015, she ensured the major union endorsed Hillary Clinton early.
Yeah, that thing that pissed a bunch of people off?
Yes.
She was behind that.
Yeah.
So she was a corrupt.
She seems like a corrupt union leader.
That's what it seems like.
SEIU donated $1 million to Priorities USA, the primary super PAC that supported Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign, in spite of Clinton's reluctance to back a $15 minimum wage.
So even when they get somebody from a union, they get somebody who's against the workers.
Isn't that something?
It's amazing how they do this.
Totally neutral bunch.
How about Charlie King?
He's a lobbyist, close ally of Governor Andrew Cuomo, former executive director for the New York State Democratic Party and the 2020 Democratic superdelegate.
Bakari Sellers was Kamala Harris's surrogate and surrogate for Hillary Clinton in 2016.
He has disingenuously insisted Bernie has a long way to go with black voters despite contrary polling.
See how Sellers welcomed Bernie to the DNC primary when he announced his 2020 campaign?
I don't have a problem with Bernie getting in the race.
When is he getting out?
It's probably a better question.
That guy's on the Democratic Platform Committee.
That guy.
In 2015, Sellers became a member of the National Council of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, or APAC, the notorious pro-Israel government lobbying group.
Go ahead, next one.
Sellers drafted a letter and spearheaded the effort in 2016 to ensure that the DNC platform did not adopt language Bernie Sanders supported, which would have acknowledged responsibility to confront humanitarian crisis facing Palestinians in Gaza.
Woo.
Have you had a bowl full of neoliberals yet?
Wow, this is something.
So far, the one with the least horrible resume is corrupt union leader.
Corrupt union leader.
That's like the one that's the least offensive so far.
And do you see why Bernie should be running against this?
Like, he should just take this out every time he gives a speech and just read this off.
This is who the Democratic Party is.
This is who I'm coming to revolt against and overthrow.
Instead, he says, most of these people are my good friends.
Don't do that, right?
So hopefully he's not doing that anymore.
You know, he's going to.
Well, he's running against them whether he likes it or not.
I know they're going to do everything they can to stop him.
Right?
I mean, this is not the impartial thing they promised.
That is such a great way to put it, Ron, that Bernie's running against these people, whether he knows it or not.
When Bernie had lost, and then he started to campaign for the DNC and he was on, remember that thing that we had?
Yes, but it was when Tom Perez was on stage for less than 20 seconds.
Nobody cared for Tom Perez.
Nobody likes Tom Perez.
And he immediately had a pander to the audience by saying, you're going to see later Bernie Sanders.
And the crowd erupted.
Yes, yes.
When he started because they would boo him.
And so to preempt the booze, he would keep mentioning Bernie's name to get cheers.
So they would stop booing him.
It didn't really work.
But my point ultimately is, you have this nefarious person, Tom Perez, who gets to recommend positions.
And he's only working against all of us.
Tom Perez, bad guy.
Bad guy, not a good guy.
Not a good guy.
He's not your friend.
Tom Perez is not a friend of the working man.
And we're nice.
And he's congratulations.
He used to be labor secretary, so it's kind of ironic.
But those are the kind of people they hire.
I mean, look what they got.
They got the corrupt union guy, right?
It's funny.
Oh, we'll get that corrupt guy to be the head of labor.
All right, that guy who doesn't really like labor.
We'll get him.
We're going to be completely impartial.
I mean, there's one guy who favors a plan called Medicare for All, and everyone here works for Big Pharma, but it's going to be completely impartial.
We'll just look for a new job.
They're fine with it.
Here's another guy.
Let's go back to this.
Dan Shapiro is the former ambassador of the United States to the state of Israel.
He backed moving the U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem, if done the right way.
And here's Shapiro in November 2019 championing virtues of U.S. military aid to Israel.
This is on the goddamn Democratic Platform Committee.
Wendy Sheriff.
This is just like a joke.
This is like the Onion could have written this article.
No kidding, right?
I want the last one to just be like, here's Tom.
He's just kind of a dickhead.
He doesn't even have a resume.
He's just a douche.
Here's Bob.
We have a video of him kicking puppies.
Wendy Sherman is the senior counselor at the Albright Stonebridge Group, a business firm founded by Madeline Albright.
Oh, good.
She was Clinton's delegate in the 2016 DNC platform drafting committee, who voted against Medicare for all, voted against, voted in favor of the TPP, and voted against banning fracking.
While Sherman was lead negotiator for the Iran nuclear deal and has previously backed diplomacy with North Korea, during drafting of 2016 platform, Sherman opposed language on Israel occupation and suggested the BDS movement creates anti-Semitism.
Craig Smith was White House political director during President Clinton's administration.
He was campaign director and senior advisor to Joe Lieberman's 2004 presidential campaign.
Smith also was senior advisor for Super PAC Ready for Hillary and later Clinton's 2016 campaign.
Megan Stabler is a member of the Democratic Majority for Israel, the DMF.
I didn't even know that was a thing.
Yeah, what is it?
DMFI.
Oh, DMFI.
I missed the I back there.
That would be just Democratic Majority 4.
That's no good.
The MFI, a group that advocates for pro-Israel Democrats.
She also served on the National Board of Directors of the Human Rights Campaign.
FYI, the DNC platform drafting committee, will define the Democratic Party's policies and priorities for domestic and foreign affairs in 2020.
FYI.
So this isn't just a list of the shittiest music concert you ever heard of.
These people have power.
He says, next, I'll focus on some of the individuals who the DNC chair Tom Perez nominated for the 2020 Democratic National Convention Rules Committee.
How about Maria Cardona is a 2020 Democratic superdelegate and a CNN and CNN and an Espanol contributor.
She also is a principal at the Dewey Square Group, a lobbying firm that has fought on behalf of corporate interests against progressive reforms.
Oh, that's good.
She's on the Rules Committee.
Oh, yeah.
Good thing Bernie did that unity tour.
From 2016, the intercept story, Dewey Square Group worked on behalf of the health insurance industry during health reform debates, even placing letters to editors in newspapers under names of elderly Massachusetts residents without their knowledge or consent.
Wow.
Wow.
This is comical.
This is a who's who of white-collar crimes.
We got it all.
No kidding.
You want big pharma?
We got big pharma.
Okay.
Oh, here's Maria Carona wrote a column for Univision in March 2016, quote, Sanders socialism does not sit well with Florida voters.
She invoked Venezuela, ignoring how U.S. policy has targeted and destabilized the country since at least 1998 because socialism was incorporated into their democracy.
Maria Cardona invoked right-wing attacks and discouraged support for Warren and Sanders.
If Warren and Sanders remain among top Democrats tier, they will.
Trump will continue to try to paint all Democrats as radical socialists who want to turn the U.S. So she's saying it's bad to have for great.
You got to have more people who are more like Republicans running as Democrats.
Oh, man.
Why oppose something?
Because they can then say you're opposing them.
Why can't they just go to the Republican Party?
Just go be a Republican.
Let us vote for a progressive.
Can you imagine the dinner party with this bunch?
Like, geez, how many times was a manager asked for within the first five minutes?
Barney Frank.
Oh, Barney Frank.
Barney Wall Street Frank.
Barney Frank is a former congressman who currently is on board of directors of the signature bank in New York.
In July 2018, New York Times examined how the bank was a go-to lender for President Donald Trump's family, as well as Jaris Gusner's family.
Now, if that was a Russia bank, Trump would be originally.
How come it doesn't go the other way?
How come they're not also Russian if they're working with Russian Trump?
That's a good question.
Why isn't Barney Frank?
Is he Russian?
Barney Frank argued against the Green New Deal in February 2019, even as the climate change threat rapidly intensified.
There's an argument that you don't destabilize the society by doing too much change at once.
There's an argument.
Guess how much change climate change is going to do, you fuck face.
In July 2015, early in the primary, Barney Frank wrote a column for Politico, why progressives shouldn't support Bernie.
He advocated against democracy because he believed if Sanders presented a formidable challenge to Clinton, it would weaken her.
Viewed as an attack surrogate for Clinton in 2016, Bernie Sanders demanded Barney Frank be removed as head of rules committee.
That request was rejected.
Sanders believed Frank had deeper professional, political, and personal hostility toward his campaign, which is true.
Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms endorsed Joe Biden in 2019, June 2019.
Even in November, as Biden's poll number sag, she maintained he'd be the best nominee.
People have long underestimated Joe Biden, and he's been consistent.
Yeah, consistently or yes, as being a creep.
Okay.
How about Chris Liu was deputy secretary of labor for President Obama in 2016?
When issues of trade deals killing jobs was raised, Liu replied, quote, TPP is a great opportunity for U.S. companies that sell products overseas, and jobs relying on exports pay better.
And that worked out so well that later people took on a chance on a guy who screwed over workers his entire career.
That's how well that worked.
Well, that worked out.
That worked out.
People voted for a political novice game show host who was an obvious charlatan.
Alexander Galardo Rucker is vice chair of the California Democratic Party.
She endorsed Clinton.
She's a 2020 superdelegate.
Galardo Rooker is a senior advisor for Mike Bloomberg's presidential campaign.
Jesus Christ.
Charlie Baker is co-founder of Dewey Square Group.
Baker was chief administrative officer for Hillary for America.
Also senior advisor for Kerry Edwards, Gore Lieberman, Clinton Gore.
Let's go to the next one.
This is why all these people who have supported Clinton on this.
That's right.
Her platform lost everybody.
She lost.
Yeah, but the donors still control the party.
And they're all bundlers and don't, and this is what this is.
This is the worst dating app ever, I got to say.
Yeah, none of these people are interesting.
I don't want to meet anyone here.
Oh, no.
James Boland is president of Bricklayers and Allied Craft Workers.
In September 2015, the union endorsed Hillary Clinton.
Again, we got another corrupt union guy.
He is also on board of directors of the National Endowment of Democracy.
That's the NED.
They fund that belling cat, which smears anti-war voices.
They directly fund these fucking douchebags who run these websites that will do propaganda smears against any truth tellers about war.
James Boland, no friend of bricklayers, no friend of craft workers.
I'm going to guess that guy.
My guess is he's pretty corrupt.
And that's why that's why that's why a lot of people say they're against unions because their leaders are corrupt, right?
And we've seen movies about it after movie about, well, any organization can be corrupt.
That doesn't mean you get rid of the organization.
Hey, we got some corrupt billing at the hospital.
You don't close down the hospital.
But you get rid of guys like this.
Or if you're Tom Perez, you elevate them to the Rules Committee.
Daniel Helper was appointed by the DNC Chair Tom Perez to be a DNC deputy national finance chair in 2017.
This Pace magazine article details how Helpern fought against raising minimum wage.
He was the chair of the Georgia Restaurant Association.
Wow.
They literally are staffing their entire thing with like Republicans, people who should be Republicans.
Yes, they should be in the Republican Party.
Get out of the Democratic Party.
So Heidi Heitkamp wrote a column in May 2019 urging Democrats to remain opposed to expanding Medicare for all.
This is your Democratic Party?
This is the vote blue no matter who.
Do you see why it drives me nuts when people say vote blue no matter who?
So should we do one more?
Let's do one more.
We'll do one more.
In March 2019, Heitkamp insisted Americans want realistic solutions.
She does not believe Medicare for all or the Green New Deal should be part of the Democratic messaging to voters.
And how'd that work out, Heidi?
How has it worked?
How'd that work out?
Here's Heidi Heitkamp in October 2019, drawing from her experience as a former tax commissioner to argue against taxing the rich.
Next one.
Harold Ickies chaired Bill Clinton's presidential campaign in 1992.
He was Bill Clinton's deputy chief of staff.
He was a senior advisor and strategist for Hillary Clinton, including her 2008 campaign.
Like many of the nominees, he's 2020 superdelegate, and he was in 2016, too.
All right.
So, all right, just coming to me.
So, we could do this all day.
Everyone, I mean, this is a long, long list.
And everyone worse than the previous.
This is your Democratic Party.
You happy?
Can you believe this?
It's depressing.
This is your Democratic Party.
This is the vote blue no matter.
You know, vote blue.
I'm not.
I'm going to vote Bernie or Tulsi.
That's it.
Hopefully, I get to vote for both of them.
That's really, that's my wish.
That would be awesome.
And I know I use that word like a millennial.
Awesome.
I say it too much.
I say awesome.
Oh, boy, I certainly hope there are tickets left to go see Mike McRae at the Velveeta room on 6th Street in downtown Austin, Texas, January 31st and February 1st.
He's headlining this comedy club, this legendary comedy club.
And I don't know what I'll do if I'm not able to get tickets.
Where do you get?
I'm sorry.
The best way to get tickets, voice in my head, is to go to thevelve.com.
But I'm afraid of the internet.
Oh, well, I think I'll take my mind off it by calling another comedian who's not going to be at the Velveeta room, Jimmy Door.
Ring ring.
Hey, Mitt Romney's on the phone.
I wonder if he's still worrying about his low approval ratings and lack of relevance.
Hi, Jimmy.
Do you still like me?
Am I still important?
I really can't answer that, Senator.
Oh, please excuse me, Jimmy.
I forgot to formally announce myself.
Hello, everybody.
This is the junior senator from the great state of Utah, Mitt Getwith Mitt Romney.
How are you?
Oh, I'm pretty good, Mitt.
Boy, am I glad that Pierre DeLecto thing blew over.
Am I right?
You mean that fake Twitter persona you set up to post positive things about yourself?
Oh, boy, here it comes again.
You guys are like sharks with the gotcha question.
Do I have to get all Pompeo on your ass and use the F word?
