Biden Sticks It To Pelosi On His Way Out!

President Joe Biden endorsed a ban on congressional stock trading in an interview that’s being released this week, belatedly weighing in on an issue that has been debated on Capitol Hill for years. “Nobody in the Congress should be able to make money in the stock market while they’re in the Congress,” Biden said. Many observers have surmised that Biden’s statement is a direct shot at former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who has become legendary — some would say notorious — for using her position and inside information to make particularly profitable stock trades. Jimmy, along with his panel of financial expert Carol Roth and Colonial Metals CEO Paul Stone, discuss why Biden might want to shiv Pelosi on his way out the White House door. Plus segments on Biden’s middle finger to truckers, the death throes of Justin Trudeau’s time as Canadian Prime Minister and the unconscionable pardons issued by the Biden administration to judges convicted in the notorious cash-for-kids scheme. Also featuring Kurt Metzger, Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Mitt Romney!

Hey, come see us do live shows January 3rd in Los Angeles.
Honolulu after that.
Baltimore, Maryland, Atlantic City.
Co-host New York and Providence, Rhode Island.
Go to jimmydoor.com for a link for tickets.
Hey, this is Jimmy.
Who's this?
Hello, Jimmy.
This is Senator Mitt Romney.
Hey, Mr. Hey, Senator.
But you're not going to be senator much longer.
Right, you are, Jimmy.
I only have about a month left in office as senator from Utah.
And after that, I'll be hanging out my senatorial mantle.
Actually, we don't really wear anything special.
But between now and then, I will be trying to solidify my legacy as the conscience of the Republican Party.
Yeah.
The conscience of the Republican Party?
Yes, that's a little thing I made up for myself.
I'm trying to get it to stick by dropping it casually into conversation, a la.
But that's just how I roll, the conscience of the Republican Party.
So far, it's not working, Jimmy.
Yeah, sorry to hear that.
Oh, no worries.
I'm still undaunted.
I'm almost wholly immune to daunts.
And as such, I will continue to provide moral leadership to my fellow Republicans, even after I leave office.
Is that so?
Oh, absolutely, Jimmy.
Jimmy, I recently sat down with CNN's Jake Tapper for a lengthy interview about my long and storied political career.
Jake Tapper, friends of the show.
Oh, oh, yes.
I've always found him to be a most respectful and respectable gentleman.
I enjoyed our conversation greatly, but the main takeaway was about the future of the Republican Party.
And what are your thoughts on that?
Well, as I told Mr. Tapper, Jake, the lay of the land is this.
What the fuck?
MAGA is the Republican Party now.
The Republican Party is Donald Trump.
That's just the way it is.
Now, I don't care much for Donald Trump personally, and I never made much of a secret about that, except when I was captured in a photo next to him with a shit-eating grin on my face.
But he is the president, and we have to respect that situation.
So that's your moral leadership?
You just accept the status quo at all costs?
Oh, absolutely, Jimmy.
I've always been a big status quo guy.
I got really into quo in college, and I've been a huge fan ever since.
Once you establish the status quo itself as having inherent moral value, you have laid a foundation for a life where you never really have to think about things too much.
And that's a very nice feeling.
I bet.
Interesting.
It really is the way to be.
Ironically, I came to this conclusion while a young Mormon missionary in France.
I rode around on a bicycle for a year trying to convince French people to give up coffee, wine, and fornication.
Not only did I not get a single solitary convert, but I was told to go piss in my own mouth so often that eventually I started to say it along with them.
These frogs were committed to the status quo, but they were happy.
They never had to think about new ideas because they had their insufferable Frenchness.
Okay, but what's your point?
My point is, that's how we as individuals should see the world and how political parties should operate.
That's why we'll never really overhaul health care because it would be too much of a change for too many people.
Medicare for all?
How about you go piss in your corn mouth?
Wow.
Okay.
And since we have Donald Trump in office for a second term, he is the status quo, which means he is good.
I don't like him, but he's good.
Does that make sense?
Not really.
Yeah, probably not to you.
You're more of a I like to change things kind of guy.
That's the kind of guy you are.
I am a let's fix our broken system kind of guy, Mitt.
Okay, but fixing broken things is technically still change.
Yes.
After a while, a leaky faucet can be part of the ambience of a household, and one might forestall fixing it for that reason.
Are you comparing millions of Americans dying without health care to a leaky faucet?
Yes, in the sense that I don't have to deal with either one.
Well, good for you, Senator.
Thank you.
I've worked very hard.
And since we're on the topic of the status quo, there's a long-standing tradition that I enjoy that qualifies as quo.
And what's that?
Jimmy, remember when I used to end our little chats with hurling a string of obscenities at you?
I certainly do.
You know, I'd call you a filthy cockbag or a shameless dog fucker or some such filth.
I remember well.
I tell you to go get fucked by a pack of monkeys who just escaped from a lab, infected with God knows what, or get spit roasted by two killer whales at SeaWorld while children watch and laugh and clap.
You know, some sort of bestiality thing nearly every time.
Yep.
Well, traditions are part of the status quo, and they should be continued, faultlessly, for that sole reason.
And for that reason, this blessed holiday season, I would like to say, Jimmy Doer, go fuck yourself.
You hobo-blowing, herpes-spreading, salad bar, sneeze-shield-licking, teen prostitute-murdering piece of fucking shit.
And Merry Christmas from the Romney family.
Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Everybody, we have special guests with us.
Carol Roth.
She's the author of this book.
You will own nothing.
Well, it actually is.
You will own a house, a car.
No, none of those things.
You'll own nothing.
with the new financial world order and how to fight back it's Carol Roth she's back with us hey Carol how are you hey Jimmy so great to be back with you great to see you again also uh our main man, Paul Stone, the co-founder and CEO of Colonial Metals Group, Florida-based precious metal supplier that helps clients leverage gold and silver to develop secure retirement plans.
And he also has a substack, thepaulstone.substack.com.
Welcome back to the show, Paul.
How are you?
I'm great, Jimmy.
Thank you so much for having me.
So I wanted to get your opinion on this.
So I just want to show.
So Matt Gates, we showed this on the show before, but I want to show it to you again because Biden is doing something on his way out the door.
So Matt Gates went around Congress and he was showing all the corruption that's happening there.
Let's watch a little bit.
Congressman Gates offered to take us on a tour.
So one of the committees where people have a lot of information is the Appropriations Committee because they can view almost any vector of government funding.
And so, you know, this is Mr. Rutherford's office.
He's on the ethics committee and the appropriations committee.
152 stock trades.
Stocks go through the roof.
And, you know, actually bought Raytheon stock the day that Russia invaded Ukraine.
Yeah, that's a big one.
Yeah, I mean, imagine if every American could make money off of one.
Yeah.
Setting aside the whole sham and ethics questions.
How many more on our hit list here?
There are a few more.
I wish there were fewer on the hit list.
I wish we could only stop at one or two offices, but as it turns out, so energy is a sector that sees a lot of congressional stock trading.
Sure.
And we have members who are on the Energy Subcommittee of Appropriations, like Michael Guest, chairman of the Ethics Committee.
And he's traded somewhere between tens and hundreds of thousands of dollars in energy stocks.
He's been buying online gaming stocks and just making a killing on them.
So you would think that the people that were on the ethics committee would be your best allies in this fight.
But indeed, they're some of the most prolific traders.
And not only trading, but in the case of Mr. Guest, trading in an area where he has access to energy information more so than almost any other American.
And no indication that he wants to maybe slow down, pump the brakes, recognize that there might be some appearance of impropriety here.
It seems as though the pace is only accelerating.
So it goes on, but you get the point.
And so now on his way out of office, guess what Joe Biden's doing?
Justin, President Biden calls for a ban on congressional stock trading.
Nobody in Congress should be able to make money in the stock market while they're in Congress.
Is that his way of saying thanks for kicking him out before his term was done?
Is that what he's doing?
Is he trying to stick it back to Nancy Pelosi and all the people who made him?
Is that well?
Let me send it to you, Carol.
What do you think?
You took the words right out of my mouth.
This is a direct dig at Nancy Pelosi, who is one of the most prolific traders.
There's this great account on X called Unusual Whales.
And one of the things they do on a regular basis is they track the trading to see who the best traders are in Congress.
And Pelosi is always near the top of the list.
So this is definitely a dig right at her.
But I have to also say, Jimmy, going back to that video, amazing to me that every single one of these people that he was talking about were on the ethics committee.
Like you couldn't write this.
It's like if he were trying to write this as like a sitcom, it could be more on the nose than that, that the guys who are in charge of the ethics committee are engaging in this insider trading, taking the knowledge that they're influencing and that they have before everyone else.
And so I think it's pretty hilarious.
We've actually had people in Congress put forth bills, many bills about this.
But I think it's pretty funny that this is the last dig of Biden.
And it just goes to my theory that like I'm almost 100% sure that him and Jill voted for Trump.
Now, Paul, is this what it looks like to you too?
Do you think that this is Joe Biden trying to get back at the people who forced him out and not and had to give up his presidency?
Or does he really care about how it looks?
Well, it's Joe Biden or, I mean, he thinks there's one drone flying over New Jersey when he was quoted the other day.
So we always got to remember it's the regime running Biden.
It's the regime that's running him.
Those who would have been attached to continue with power had he been remained in place as the candidate seeking reelection, they're bitter.
Yeah, I'm sure that's what it is.
I'm sure that's what it is.
Well, here, a little bit more.
Professor Zenkis says there was a congressional stock ban bill before Congress in 2022 when Democrats had majorities in both the House and the Senate and could have passed it.
Biden did nothing.
And most importantly, Nancy Pelosi, as speaker, made sure it was tabled until the Republicans took over.
So, of course, Biden waits until a month before he leaves office and Trump is president-elect.
And the GOP is about to control both chambers of Congress to come out strongly for this.
This is how Democrats operate and why we can't stand them.
They don't use their power to do the right thing when they have the power.
Instead, they wait until Republicans have power and then say, oh, look, we are backing the right thing.
Why aren't they doing something?
They're all frauds, right?
So that is pretty fraudulent behavior.
One more.
This is what Pelosio Pelosi portfolio update.
Our Nancy Pelosi trading strategy has risen 54% so far this year.
Representative Pelosi has made almost 100 times her annual congressional salary off of her portfolio.
Last year, Pelosi held up efforts to ban congressional trading.
That's Nancy Pelosi.
And Nancy Pelosi made $3 million in three hours inside her training.
That's 17 times her annual salary.
She's also made $4 million on a single trade.
That's 20 times her salary.
She owns a $200,000 Porsche 9-11, multiple mansions worth over $5 million apiece.
Nancy Pelosi's stock portfolio has hit an all-time high as plus 93%.
Here's one more.
Breaking Pelosi wins again.
After Broadcom crushes earnings, she's now made an estimated $1,800,000 on her AVGO buy.
That's 10 times her yearly salary on Just one trade.
So, you know, Carol, there was a time when Barack Obama signed a ban on this stuff, and then the next year he repealed it.
Do you remember that?
I do.
I am old enough to remember that.
And as you've noted in some of these posts, there have been, on a bipartisan basis, actually, many bills that have been introduced because I think that most people understand this doesn't make a lot of things.
But Nancy Pelosi is the Gordon gecko of Congress.
I mean, she is the absolute Wall Street legend.
And this is how her and her husband make lots of money.
She was actually interviewed about this.
I did a piece about congressional insider trading a couple of years ago, and she was interviewed and she said, Oh, you know, it's not insider trading, it's capitalism.
And I just thought that that was just so amazing that she was throwing that out there.
But I do think the tides are changing and we're seeing it now, how people are speaking up and their voices are being heard, especially with X. And I think that this is something that could get through perhaps the next Congress if you get enough people talking about it and putting that pressure because there definitely is some support from Congress, just not at the very top levels from the people who are making all the money, like Nancy Pelosi.
Well, don't you think that this would lower confidence, Paul, in people just in general investing in the stock market if they see the people running government manipulating it like this?
I think you broaden out just a little and you look at how it's just another very powerful example that those in Washington have no cares for us out on Main Street.
They're never thinking about us.
They're always thinking about themselves.
And when they see, you know, people becoming extraordinarily wealthy over the last 10, 15 years from all the money printing to save our economy from the devastation of await, they want a part of that.
You know, they probably think like peons.
And those are the lobbyists whispering in their ears from Monday through Friday.
American citizens aren't camped out in D.C. whispering in their ears for what we need because we're at work out here in the real world.
And so it's just another really, really strong example that as people sit back and they're lazy boys and they watch the news and they're angry about the headlines they see or they're confused, just recognize nothing inside Washington will change Washington.
And it's not a swamp.
A long time ago, it was a swamp and they drained that concrete and steel is what makes up Washington today.
It will take a wrecking ball, not pulling a plug.
There's nothing that's liquid in Washington.
It's all hardened steel and concrete.
That regime, that beast of a bureaucracy, cares only for itself.
It feeds on itself and it thinks we're the enemy.
And I think it's a different set of rules, is really what's frustrating to people.
Because if people on Main Street, you know, if you worked in a company and you knew what was going on and you were able to trade with the same level of information, I don't think people would have so many issues with it.
But the fact of the matter is, this is something that is illegal for everybody else, everyone on Wall Street, everyone on Main Street.
And somehow Congress is exempt just like they're exempt from everything else.
They're supposed to be representatives.
They're supposed to be public servants.
But the only thing they're serving is their own interests.
Yep.
Well, here it is.
Hawley introduces the Pelosi Act.
Hey, congratulations, Nancy.
You finally have a bill named after you.
Congratulations.
It bans lawmakers from trading stocks.
That was introduced way back in January 23.
And here's what our good friend Glenn with 2N's Greenwald has to say about it.
It's a textbook example of Washington theater.
Let's hear what he says.
What's more interesting than the fact that the amendment failed, and it doesn't mean the bill is never going to pass.
It still could pass as a standalone bill.
Is exactly what happened, which in particular, the Democrats, every Democrat except one on the Senate Judiciary Committee voted no.
The Democrats are a majority.
As a result, the fact that they all voted no, except for Senator John Ossoff of Georgia, who voted yes, voted in favor of Senator Holly's proposed ban, meant that as long as they got one or two Republican no votes, the amendment from Senator Hawley was going to fail.
So here you see every Democrat, Senator Durbin, Feinstein, White House, Klobuchar, Blumenthal, Hirono, Corey Booker, all of them just voting no.
And then John Cornyn and Tom Tillis, the Republican from Texas, the Republican from North Carolina, joined those Democrats in voting no.
And that right there, you see it on the screen, that formed a majority of no votes that ensured that Senator Hawley's amendment was going to fail.
As soon as it became obvious that there were enough no votes to ensure failure, that was when all these brave Republicans stepped up to vote yes, knowing that there was no chance that it could actually succeed.
So you hear of Lindsey Graham, Chuck Grassley, Mike Lee, Ted Cruz, Senator Hawley, Senator Cotton Kennedy, Marsha Blackburn, and then joined by John Osoff.
Now, some of these people are actual genuine supporters of this ban.
That obviously includes Senator Hawley.
It includes Senator Osoff.
But what so often is done is so much of this is theater, where you get very safe senators, very safe blue states who are never going to be primary challenged by the Democratic Party.
They don't primarily challenge anybody.
And there are in states where their seats are very safe.
So they can vote no on anything, including something as popular as banning members of Congress from profiteering off stock trading.
And then once it's safely defeated, other people who aren't quite as safe in their seats can come up and pretend to vote yes, pretend to support it, knowing that in reality, its failure is already guaranteed.
That's exactly what happened here.
So it's all theater.
And, you know, I try to say that we're really run by a cabal of billionaires in the West.
And people say, oh, really, Jimmy, you think they have secret meetings?
And I'm like, no, it's called the session of Congress.
When they have a session in Congress, do you really think they're in there doing the bidding of workers and students and the retired people and the infirmed and sick?
No, they're in there doing the bidding for themselves and their corporate masters, right?
So do you, Carol, do you think this will ever get you think we'll ever go back to that one brief shining moment when this was outlawed and that we could have some integrity back to the stock trading in America?
Well, it's funny that you said that about Congress.
I always call Congress a place where they legally launder money and perform political theater and that's what they've been doing for a long time.
I think the way that this maybe turns around is if we can somehow get some blind voting where people have to go on the record, but you don't know what everybody else is doing in place.
I think that would be the way to do it.
I don't know that the people who are in charge are going to do that.
But maybe if you get a switcheroo, you get somebody who is the speaker who's from outside of Congress, you know, gets nominated or something like that.
But that would really be the way.
You're kind of like they elect the pope where everybody puts down the piece of paper and then they put out the smoke.
Yes, you know, now you can no longer insider trade.
But there are some people who think this is a big deal.
And I do think that we're at a point where people are very fed up with the status quo, that they want to change, that they are not happy with what Congress has done and how it has completely obliterated Main Street.
And so if it is going to happen soon, I think now is the moment to seize on that and let people use their voice voices and basically shame these members of Congress into doing the right thing.
Because I think we've seen that be effective recently.
And if we can get more of that, now is probably the time to seize that moment.
When you say recently, you're talking about the CR bill, the continuing?
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, I think with the election, with the CR bill, with some of these appointments that Trump has floated, the flip-flopping that we're seeing in terms of that, it's because there has been this free speech backlash from people who are using their voices and saying, this is what we want of you.
And that is getting out in a very meaningful way.
It's no longer that the corporate press is the gatekeepers.
We have folks like you, Jimmy.
We have folks on Twitter who are able to now spread messages in a different way.
And that is meaningful and that is getting to people.
So I think that we're starting to just see the beginning of that.
And so now is really the time to put the pedal to the metal on that.
You know, since you brought up the continuing resolution, how did that, what were people objecting to the most?
And has it changed?
What's going on?
Can you tell me what's going on with that the latest?
Is that back to me?
Yeah.
Well, first of all, the bill had some Ozempic.
It went from 1,500 pages to like, you know, 118 in 24 hours.
So that was pretty amazing.
I'm still not exactly sure what is in it.
I was just on another network talking, and it looks like it has enough votes that it has cleared the House in its current form.
And now that is going to go to the Senate, and we'll see if the Senate approves it.
And it sounds like, you know, it's got some pieces in it, but not, you know, obviously the whole pork kick gaboodle that was in there the last time.
And I think the objection, I think what people really wanted was to see single issue bills, right?
We want to vote on these things individually.
We want you to go on record and tell us where you stand on this issue, not, oh, well, I had to vote for it because I needed to get this important thing attached over here.
But, you know, as a first step, that's a pretty impressive turnaround in 24 hours that we have not seen before.
I don't think we have a precedent for that.
So if that could be done and Trump hasn't taken off as the new Congress hasn't taken session yet, that maybe that type of model can really be accelerated where people are using their voices and saying, no, business as usual is not going to fly.
So there were so many things in that continuing resolution that even I became aware of, like they had stuff in there.
I don't know if it's still in there.
It went from 1,500 pages down to 100.
They had stuff in there that would block Trump's Department of Justice from investigating crimes that were being committed by members of Congress because they knew he was going to go after the crimes that was clear to me that happened on the January 6th committee.
And they wanted to insulate those people from that.
And that was included in a funding bill.
What is that?
You're right.
So people want to vote on that.
Why don't you have a vote on that?
Don't stick it into a funding bill right before Christmas was exactly what Matt Massey said was going to happen.
And that's exactly, it's amazing you could predict the corruption.
And Mike Johnson doesn't seem to be any different than anybody on any of this.
And you've been following this at all, Paul?
Yeah, absolutely.
You know, to me, and I grew up outside Northern Virginia, so I have a little bit of a sense of what that city seems to, you know, how it seems to operate.
It's like juggling chainsaws.
And these funding bills are a game of extortion.
That's all they are.
You want to fund the government, you want to fund the military?
Great.
You're going to have to sign all these things that no one else would really want.
And let's just, and they plan to load up the bill with so many things.
I mean, how long would you read your service agreement with your cellular carrier?
You just click I agree.
You're not going to read it because it's 18, you know, it's 180 pages long.
It's 100 pages long.
It's 50 pages long.
And that's part of it.
And Carol made a great point earlier when she said we could shame the politicians into passing a law that restricts them from bad behavior.
But deeper than that is all of the people, not every single one of them, but the overwhelming majority of the people are already bad people.
You're not going to wag the badness out of their characters.
We have to look, we would have to look at how we re-engineer the election process.
We would have to look at what we can change as people ourselves.
You know, I've said just for a perspective, what if no one voted two years from now, Right?
You had no, you'd lose what, a third of the House, half the House and a third of the Senate.
And two years later, no one voted.
And six years later, no one voted.
And we had none of this.
You know, it's just for a perspective to understand that the choices that come to us on the ballot are rarely ever good because they're the same kind of people they're replacing.
And I don't mean to assault anyone's character, but if we just look plainly at the track record of what we've been getting for 20, 30, 40 years, it's the same thing.
It's all hooey, and none of it represents the interests of you and me.
And the reason I feel fine coming down hard on them is they actually have, I didn't have to swear anything when I became CEO of a company or a sales guy at some company.
They swear an oath, an oath.
So they have to be held to a higher standard.
We get to hold them to a higher standard.
And if they're not going to defend the interests of Americans and individuals that are already here, then I've got a lot of curse words to describe their character.
I certainly do too.
Well, good for Joe Biden.
He's given so many fingers on his way out the door.
I didn't know he had so many.
He's, you know, we should just kind of compliment him for having the physical acuity to hold up a figure, I guess.

Biden just gave the final middle finger to the working class on his way out.
That's right after he gave the middle finger by pardoning Hunter to the American middle finger to the American people by hardening Hunter.
Then he gave his middle finger to all the child victims of the judge who was taking millions of dollars to put children in jail.
He pardoned him.
How many middle fingers does this guy have left?
I count three.
So it's one because there's short Biden.
So both Bidens now have there's one last middle finger by my count.
So what did he, what was the middle finger he gave to truckers?
He may be on his way out of office, but the administration has used his final weeks in office to give one last kick in the pants to working class Americans.
As Landline Magazine revealed, Landline Magazine that's the journal of record for people who still have landlines.
Is that what that is?
I think it's from the same publisher as Cassette Player Geographic and Hand Crank Power Car Window Enthusiast.
Can't even get a smile out of Misha.
Nothing.
As Landline Magazine revealed last week, the Department of Homeland Security has made an additional 70,000 H2B visas available for next year, doubling the number of the previous year when 1,500 were given to transportation occupations like trucking.
So they're bringing in people to drive trucks in America and drive wages down.
That's what Joe Biden's doing on his way out of office.
That's his big gift.
Wow.
Truckers didn't even do a trucker thing like Canada.
He did that to them.
I should, you know what?
I should be giving Joe Biden credit just for being able to raise his middle finger to begin with.
130,000 visas might not sound like a lot in a country as populous as the United States and 1,500 given to truckers, even less so.
But when you consider market conditions and just how bad the trucking industry has gotten, you start to see how much of a middle finger to truck drivers that this really is.
Well, they got to compete with Amazon, right?
How bad have things gotten for trucking?
Well, the online trucking industry magazine Freight Waves has an entire section of their website dedicated to nothing but trucking company bankruptcies and truck driver layoffs.
No kidding.
A quick scan through the most recent dozen of 82 articles for 2024 alone show that over 4,000 truckers in the United States were laid off in October and November.
And thousands more are at risk of being laid off as the companies they work for seek bankruptcy protection.
This number doesn't even include many self-employed truckers whose business closures are much more difficult to track.
Given this fact, what on earth would cause the Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas to push for more visas for foreign truckers?
He gave us a window into his thinking recently in a November press release.
There are employers across the country that would suffer greatly without employers.
Yeah.
Did you say not employees, not truckers, not workers, but employers would suffer greatly if they had to pay a living wage to their truckers.
Wait, the number one illegal immigrant human trafficker in America thinks that you don't say.
You don't say.
He really does care about the average working American as much as the Joker cares about his makeup being uneven.
Authorizing these, this is according to Mayorkas, authorizing these supplemental visas helps U.S. employers fill those positions.
It helps fuel our economy and reduce irregular migration while also providing a safe and lawful pathway to the United States for non-citizens who are prepared to work.
Because, you know, there's nobody in America who wants to work.
They're prepared to work for less.
And not for long.
They get sick of it real quicker and quicker.
That's right.
It ain't like the old days.
They start to realize they're getting screwed, and then they hate the next batch of illegals you just brought in.
It's accelerating now.
Perhaps Mayorka still believes in the debunked driver shortage narrative that corporate lobbying groups like the American Trucking Association have been pushing for decades in an effort to extract taxpayer subsidies for their in-house CDL schools.
Yes, perhaps he does believe that.
More than likely, he always knew it was a lie, and this was all on purpose.
Of course, there's a driver shortage.
It's probably caused by climate change, alien invasions, and cholesterol.
Oh, I hate Maorkis' face, dude.
He looks like Dove Davidoff's joke like he just smelled cookies.
There isn't a trucker shortage, just like there isn't a worker shortage in America.
This is all a lie.
Don't believe people when they say this.
Don't believe Bill Clinton when he says we have to have open borders because we're not making enough babies.
The reason why people aren't making enough babies in America is because they don't feel financially secure enough to afford a family.
But what people like Bill Clinton want to do is flood the country with more cheap labor to drive your wages down even further.
Yeah, think about all the racism of like designer.
Oh, they just keep having babies.
Those are citizens.
You see the trick?
Rich people go, well, all these irresponsible people have babies.
And then they bring in people from other countries and pay them slave wages.
And they can provide the babies while you're sterile.
But there isn't a trucker shortage.
There's a retention crisis, the result of plummeting wages, plummeting wages for truckers that can be traced back to the deregulation of the business brought to us by another Democrat, Jimmy Carter, and his Motor Carrier Act in 1980.
People forget that Jimmy Carter deregulated the trucking industry, and it's been on a downward spiral ever since.
Wow.
Thank you to that open arms thing, too, to the Marielle Boatlift, which was a huge disaster.
And not in terms of drug smuggling, of course, that up that way up, but that's on a national scale now.
Jimmy Carter is one of those rare instances where you have a homebuilder who doesn't rely on truckers.
Thanks to Carter, the average truck driver today's salary is half of what it was in 1980 when he deregulated the industry.
Just so you know.
I'm sure he can't take all the credit, and I'm sure a lot of the geniuses behind that are still in power in some fashion to this very day.
The Biden administration's latest slap in the face is exactly the kind of policy that kept, has kept truckers' salaries in the toilet.
Like so much else under the Democrats, when greeted with bad working conditions, their answer is, let's bring in more immigrants who won't complain.
The trucking industry in America has come to rely on migrant labor instead of improving pay and conditions for American workers.
It's cheaper.
It's right.
That's the context in which to understand Majorca's visa gambit.
It's designed to make it easier for American companies to bypass their fellow citizens for jobs, following a pattern that sees exploiting migrants as a more profitable alternative to offering jobs with decent pay and conditions.
It's almost like this administration has one function, and that's to destroy America from the inside out.
Seems like that's what they're doing.
A lot of the globe, it's called globalism.
Yeah.
Global market.
There has to be one global country, and it better be us.
So we got to do whatever we can to you, the citizens.
And if your collateral damage like a common Iraqi that you didn't think about at the time, you're one of them.
And fuck you.
That's our message to all Americans from the top.
It should come as no surprise that drivers from other countries are often poorly trained and many do not communicate in English, which you would think would be a requirement for a safety-sensitive job like trunking.
And it is.
Meanwhile, corrupt DMVs have been found to be giving out truck driving licenses without even testing the drivers with predictable negative results on highway safety.
No kidding.
Wow, it looks like Kirp Mexican is going to get some side work.
So you mean I had to learn to hand signal Parallel Park and load the speed limits everywhere for nothing.
All I had to do was hop over the border and then come back again.
So they use New York City's taxi driver policy is basically.
Yep.
A piece of legislation has been languishing in committee since it was introduced in 2022 by former Democratic Congressman Andy Levin that would have massively helped America's truckers, the Guaranteeing Overtime for Truckers Act.
Though Democrats lost control of Congress in the midterms later in 2022, President Biden could have demanded that this piece of legislation be prioritized.
What truckers got instead was nothing.
Nothing but the government throwing yet more money at the retention problem, which helps to keep truckers' wages frozen.
The re-election of Donald Trump to the presidency has been welcomed by many of America's truckers.
And we hope, yeah, you better hope that President Trump does not repeat the same policy mistake.
It's not a mistake.
This is not a policy mistake.
It is not incompetent.
This is not incompetence.
It's not an oopsie.
This is part of the plan.
Then we get your speech rights.
We disarm you.
We do all the things so that you are, and then make you like all the kids in college can go take a day to color and coloring books because Trump got in.
We turn you into a five-year-old forever and then decide how much slop you'll get to have like you live in Gaza.
And now it's going to be up to MAGA to care about stuff like this.
And we'll see if I don't have any hope that Trump a billionaire.
And you already know that Elon Musk is anti-union for his own workers who build his cars.
You think he's going to want to help prop up the truckers?
No, he wants to bring in cheap labor.
Trump has signaled that he will prioritize American workers.
Well, he's signaled a nice symbolic gesture to start out this second term would be to cancel the visas issued by Maorkis and Biden.
Well, we'll see.
Maybe he will do that.
I'm going to guess he won't.
I have hope.
I don't have faith.
There are plenty of American truckers out of work who could fill those positions right now.
Yes, there are.
So don't believe them when they say that people aren't making enough babies in America.
People aren't making...
When the economy is good, people make lots of babies.
Yeah, poor people are.
Don't worry.
It's all the middle class people that thought they went to college and they were a good boy and girl and did the thing and they believe in the establishment.
That's who's fucked because they got debt from their dumb college they went to, which you're not getting a break on because it interferes with our recruitment.
Military requested them never to do that.
Come see us on tour in Los Angeles, Honolulu, Dallas, Texas, Baltimore, Atlantic City, co-host New York and Providence, Rhode Island.
Go to JimmyDoor.com for a link for tickets and only there.
So Trudeau is going through some hot water.
So this guy, Wright Blend, said he confronted Justin Trudeau and asked him, what gives him the right to continue as Prime Minister of Canada?
He's a public figure, not the king.
And he has failed.
It's time for him to go.
It's time.
So the rats are leaving this sinking ship up there.
Krista Freeland, his finance minister, left, said that, and everybody's leaving him.
In fact, today, the big op, the person who's supposed to be supporting him, has told him to resign.
I'll show you this, but this guy confronts him.
And there's a couple interesting things I'm going to point out here.
Watch this.
King Trudeau, what gives you the right to continue?
What gives you the right to stay in office?
You failed Canada.
You've ruined our country.
You're done.
Walk away.
You don't have an ounce of your father's integrity.
At least he walked in the snow.
You've ruined this country.
Everyone around you is running from you.
They're abandoning you.
Christian Freeland, Sean Fraser, they've all left you.
It's time for you to go.
It's time for Canada to have an election.
You're not the king.
Wow.
So I just want to show you that the guy who screams about climate change drives around in the biggest SUV I've ever seen.
And it's not just his.
He's got a whole string of them with him everywhere he goes.
Just like you're not the king of this country.
You are not.
They're behind him.
They're in front of him.
You have failed.
This is Mr. Climate Change.
Everywhere they go.
Do you know how hard it is to fail Canada?
I mean, that's really an achievement.
So that was pretty epic.
This epic heckle comes one day after Trudeau's trusted deputy, finance minister Christia Freeland, went scorched earth in a Monday resignation letter that left Trudeau in an even more precarious position.
Wait, Jimmy, he fired her and then she did that.
You know that?
That's her.
You can't fire me.
I quit.
Oh, no, kidding.
Yep.
Oh, is that what happened?
Freeland has.
What the point is a botched firing.
That's why she's doing it.
So that's why she did it.
Oh, okay.
It's like a Nazi scumbag from the WEF.
It's like when Joe Biden endorsed Kamala Harris to stick it back in Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats face because they kicked him out, right?
And they did, okay.
So Freeland has publicly opposed a plan by Trudeau for short-term spending on voter-pleasing measures such as tax breaks that will worsen the country's budget deficit.
Short-term.
So the tax breaks, you know, they're insane taxes they have there that are not just like normal taxes.
They're like just to get liquidity.
Yeah, but they do have healthcare.
Their healthcare stinks.
They've gutted that.
The healthcare, what they have is suicide.
They literally are paying taxes.
So our country, this is from his deputy who he fired and she quit.
Our deputy today faces a grave challenge, Freeland56, wrote in her letter, referring to the United States President-elect Donald Trump's threat of tariffs.
That means keeping our fiscal powder dry today so we have the reserves we may need for a coming tariff war.
He wants a tariff war with America and he's like, no, we got to knuckle under.
And he's right, by the way, knuckle under Canada.
That means eschewing costly political gimmicks, which we can ill afford and which make Canadians doubt that we recognize the gravity of the moment.
Gimmicks.
How great is that?
Gimmicks like easing off the population a little bit.
So here she says, see my letter to the prime minister below.
And then Salty Canuck says, $61 billion deficit.
No wonder you resigned.
You just screwed Canadians over hard.
How do you look your kids and people in your writing in the faces when you tell them they will never own a home?
It's easy.
She's a Nazi.
She's an Azov.
That's right.
That's easy.
Azolov Hunka is a close family friend.
That's right.
Trump tweeted about it on his True Soul Show.
He said, the great state of Canada, A, is stunned as the finance minister resigns or was fired, as Kirk says, from her position by Governor Justin Trudeau.
Her behavior was totally toxic and not at all conducive to making deals, which are good for the very unhappy citizens of Canada, eh?
She will not be missed.
So is that because was she so what I wonder what the riff was there?
We got to get that guy.
Who's that guy?
Vive?
Who's our guy?
I mean, I think it is what it says.
She wanted to go to.
Let's have a tariff war because she's a Ukraine simp.
She wanted to have a tariff war?
Yeah, she wanted to.
Yeah, mistake.
And Trudeau, who's a punk, knows they can't do that.
And so that's what that 51st state talk was.
Remember, they went to dinner and said, well, maybe Canada should be a state.
That's right.
So she was like, no, we're going to fight.
Because I don't know if you know, there's a lot of Ukrainian Nazis in Canada.
They still have the statues to that guy out there.
That's right.
So this is the guy who he, without his support, Trudeau can't remain.
He can't.
So they called for an election.
So this guy says Justin Trudeau failed in the biggest job a prime minister has, to work for people and not for the powerful.
Yes, he did fail that.
The NDP vote to bring this government down.
This NDP will vote to bring so this NDP will vote to bring this government down and give Canadians a chance to vote for a government who will work for them.
So when parliament comes back on the 27th of January, they're going to have a vote.
And I think Trudeau's on the way out because without that.
This is Jagmeet Singh, the guy that was holding them in.
Now, I've publicly stated that I think Jagmeet Singh is Trudeau in his Arabian Nights outfit from those controversial pictures, but I might be wrong.
It might be a separate guy.
It's funny, this guy.
I wish I had a bigger picture of him.
He's corrupt, too.
I'm sure he is.
He waited till the day he made sure he has his retirement before he did this.
Yeah, then he, like a rat, he went out, but he was part of the reason Trudeau was even propped up.
So he was the guy, right?
Without his guy propping him up, Trudeau couldn't be a minority party ruler, right?
Right.
So he's pulling the rug out from underneath Trudeau now.
So it looks like it looks like Trudeau's gone.
So here's Chris Pavlowski.
He's the CEO of Rumble, eh?
And he says Canada is about to be great again.
NDP is bringing the government down.
Trudeau will be out.
Pierre Paul Vier, how do you say his name?
Paula Veriro.
He's an Israel simp who thought it was great what happened in Syria.
Yeah, he's a hopes up.
I don't have my hopes up.
Chris Pavlowski.
I didn't know you had hopes about Canada.
Couldn't be a better day for platforms like Rumble and Twitter in the North.
Well, don't say anything about Israel because it might not be.
Yeah.
So this isn't the first time people have confronted Justin Trudeau.
Here's a lady confronting him.
Watch this.
You sold us out to globalism.
You are not working for Canada.
You are working for your globalist partners.
I wonder how much they're paying you to betray Canada.
What do we do with traitors in Canada, Mr. Trudeau?
We used to hang them, hang them for treason.
And you're doing that very same thing to us now.
And she look at that.
Look at him.
Oh, boy.
Lady.
You don't like me.
Yeah, I don't know if.
Oh, I mean, Zelensky's holding it better together than him on Blow.
Let's listen to that again.
You've sold us out to globalism.
You are not working for Canada.
You are working for your globalist partners.
I wonder how much they're paying you to betray Canada.
What do we do with traitors in Canada, Mr. Trudeau?
We used to hang them, hang them for treason.
And you're doing that very same thing to us now.
So it's fun to see people confront him.
Now, last time I showed a video of someone confronting Justin Trudeau, YouTube demonetized it.
They said it was harassment, harassment of the leader of Canada.
You got to be kidding me.
But that's what YouTube said.
Stop bullying him.
Stop bullying the most powerful guy in the country, eh?
But it's of Canada, so that you literally can bully the Prime Minister of Canada.
Here's a scary.
King Trudeau, what gives you the right to continue?
What gives you the right to stay in office?
You failed Canada.
You've ruined our country.
You're done.
Walk away.
You don't have an ounce of your father's integrity.
At least he walked in the snow.
You've ruined this country.
Everyone around you is running from you.
They're abandoning you.
Christia Freeland, Sean Fraser, they've all left you.
It's time for you to go.
It's time for Canada to have an election.
You're not the king.
You're not the king.
Come again.
You're not the king of this country.
You are not our king.
You are a public servant and you have failed.
You know why that's Charlie Sting's extra?
Because his dad did not have integrity.
He's one of the worst Club of Rome New World Order freaks that ever existed.
His mom was a Stepford wife.
That's why he's probably, what's his name's Kid?
Because the dad would whore her out.
Oh, Castro's kid?
Yeah, and I thought it was like, well, I don't know.
Maybe it is.
Maybe it isn't.
But their regular public things about her, oh, she was very free sexually, which I've never heard about a first lady, but she's a Stepford wife.
His dad, I mean, the stuff about his dad did is unbelievably bad.
But publicly, Club of Rome guy.
So he was a big phony and a scumbag.
And probably, if I had to guess, was very Justin Judea went through some crazy Menendez-style upbringing with that guy, is my guess.
You remember when the guy who hosts Weekend Update said he was voting for Joe Biden because he was voting for decentralized people?
Yeah, Colin, Colin Joe's.
Scarjoe.
Yeah.
There couldn't be a less decent human being in the country than Joe Biden.
But Kojo and Scarjo said he's decent.
A heartbroken broken mother confronted the court.
So what he did, I'll just let you know, there was this judge who was taking payoffs from private prisons to put kids, juveniles, in prison that shouldn't be there.
He was taking payoffs.
They caught him and they put that judge in prison.
Joe Biden, who is in the pocket of private prisons, just pardoned that guy.
That's trafficking when you do that.
Send kids to somebody for money.
That's called human trafficking.
That's called human trafficking.
So a heartbroken mother confronted the corrupt judge.
Judge Michael Conahan was sentenced to 17 years in prison for his role in the infamous Kids for Cash scandal.
Joe Biden just pardoned him.
That's a weird pardon.
Why would he have to pardon that guy?
He sent juveniles for because he, because Joe Biden owes favors to the for-profit prisons.
And the for-profit prisons are paying other judges.
That's what that means.
And they don't want other people.
They don't want other judges to get scared and stop sending people to prison for money.
Wow.
Joel Biden got paid by the money.
He got paid millions of dollars to send kids to prison and watch a mother confronts this guy.
You need to be.
Do you remember me?
Do you remember me?
Do you remember my son?
An all-star wrestler?
He's gone.
He's on his own in the heart.
This is good man.
A heartbroken, really an outraged mother lashing out at former judge Mark Civarella.
Now, her son, an all-star wrestler, killed himself after being sent to a juvenile detention facility for a minor drug offense.
Now it turns out that Chivarella was accepting money To do that.
Send kids away for cash.
A former judge was convicted yesterday of 12 counts, including racketeering and money laundering.
The judge remains free while he awaits sentencing.
Yeah.
Is Don Lemon going to report on the pardon?
Victims of Kids for Cash, judge, outraged by Biden's clemency.
What about all of us?
He was convicted.
He took $2.8 million for jailing more than 2,300 kids.
So he trafficked human trafficked through 2,300 children.
Some as young as eight years old.
The number I heard was 4,000.
Joe Biden just pardoned that guy.
That's the guy you voted for decency.
What's that fucking asshole's name who said he voted for?
Colin Jost.
What is his name?
Colin.
Colin Jost.
What's his last name?
You keep saying it too fast.
J-O-S-T.
Colin Jost, the host of Weekend Update, said he was voting for decency.
And now you know, well, now you know what Colin Jost is worth.
Zero.
Here's the story.
Victims of former Pennsylvania judge convicted in the so-called Kids for Cash scandal are outraged by Joe Biden's decision to grant him clemency.
In 2011, he was sentenced to more than 17 years in prison after he and another judge, Mark Ciavella, were found guilty of accepting $2.8 million in illegal payments in exchange for sending 2,300 kids to jail, including some as young as eight years old to private juvenile detention centers.
How are they going to learn?
Conahan was released from prison in 2020 due to COVID-19.
And he was placed on house arrest, which has been scheduled to end in 2026.
Conahan's sentence was one of about 1,500 the U.S. president commuted or shortened on Thursday while also pardoning 39 Americans who had been convicted of nonviolent crimes, but not Julian Assange.
But not that Dozel, what's that guy's name?
Dawsinger.
Not Steve Dawsinger.
Or January 6th, but don't even compare to the level of this evil on any level.
In response to Conahan's pardon, the mother of a boy sent to jail at age 17 before later dying by suicide told the citizens' voice, I am shocked and I am hurt because she probably voted for Joe Biden.
Conahan's actions destroyed families, including mine, and my son's death is a tragic reminder of the consequences of his abuse of power.
Sandy Fonzo said to the outlet.
This pardon feels like an injustice for all of us who still suffer.
Right now, I am processing and doing the best I can to cope with the pain that this has brought back.
By the way, I hope that this judge doesn't run into a Luigi.
Yeah.
Somebody who was put in jail by him, who kind of has an axe to grind.
I hope that doesn't happen.
I hope that doesn't happen.
You know, probably won't.
Probably won't happen.
I'm saying.
That's why I'm saying.
I hope it doesn't.
Similarly, Amanda Laura, who at age 14 was wrongfully imprisoned as part of the scheme, told WBRE, it's a big slap in the face for us once again.
We had time taken away from us.
We had no one to talk to.
But now we're talking about the president of the United States to do this.
What about all of us?
Joe Biden doesn't give a shit about you.
He never did.
And fuck all those people who said that Joe Biden was decent.
Fuck all those people.
He just gives you a lot of people.
They're all stupid assholes.
They're the same people who told you don't do your own research doing COVID and that you should take a mandatory experimental medical treatment and shut up.
Fuck those assholes.
Did you see Martin Short making fun of Colin Jost on some promo?
He was getting gifts for everybody and it was a book charisma command for Colin Jost.
And he goes, cocaine calls him the challenge.
The Pennsylvania governor, Josh Shapiro, also condemned Biden's decision, telling reporters that his fellow Democrat got it absolutely wrong.
He didn't get it wrong.
He did something evil because Joe Biden is evil.
Was it a whoopsie doodle?
I'll offer these thoughts as an outsider, not privy to all the information he looked at, but I do feel strongly that President Biden got it absolutely wrong and created a lot of pain here in northeastern Pennsylvania.
Biden's actions Thursday marked the largest instance of presidential clemency carried out in a single day.
Describing the move, the White House said the president is commuting the sentences of close to 1,500 people who were placed on home confinement during the COVID-19 pandemic and who have successfully reintegrated.
And oh, thank God that judge is successfully reintegrated.
You know, Bo Biden, Bo Biden, his son that died, that Biden lied and said he got a tumor from burn pits and all that bullshit.
Oh, he said he got killed in Iraq.
No, he didn't get killed in Iraq.
That was a lie, he said.
Yeah.
Yeah, Biden's, I mean, Biden's an idiot.
But his son busted the worst pedophile, I think, in America's history, some doctor.
Then he prosecuted a DuPont, who the judge then gave clemency to.
And then he got brain cancer.
Then he died of a brain tumor.
So the good son, who was a good guy, Biden, by contrast, and he shitbagged Son Hunter.
Those are the people who live.
Oh, fuck.
So back to this.
Zaid Salim says Biden's clemency of Judge Michael Conahan has to rank pretty high on the list of the most unconscionable actions ever taken by a president.
Former Governor Baba Baba convicted in 2011 for Kids for Cash scandal where he took kickbacks from for-profit detention centers in exchange for wrongly, wrongly, wrongly sending juveniles to their.
That is more evil than anything Alex Jones, Donald Trump, you name it, put together have done.
Joe Biden did that just like that.
Michael Conahan took $2,800,000 in bribes from a private prison in exchange for locking up 2,300 kids, one of whom committed suicide.
Biden commuted his sentence.
Steve Donzinger won a $9 billion lawsuit against Chevron, and he got locked up for 3.5 years in retaliation for winning a lawsuit against Chevron.
By the way, same judge who locked up Donsinger is the one who convicted Trump in the Gene Carroll rape case.
Yeah.
So Steve Donzinger, not pardoned.
So your friend Joe Biden is the scum of the earth, like I've always said.
He's not a decent guy.
He's not a great politician.
He got to where he is because he was willing to serve evil.
That's how he got there.
