Time Text
This is an iHeart podcast.

I'm Ben Ferguson.
And I'm Ted Cruz.
Three times a week, we do our podcast, Verdict with Ted Cruz.
Nationwide, we have millions of listeners.
Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, we break down the news and bring you behind the scenes inside the White House, inside the Senate, inside the United States Supreme Court.
And we cover the stories that you're not getting anywhere else.
We arm you with the facts to be able to know and advocate for the truth with your friends and family.
So down with Verdict with Ted Cruz now, wherever you get your podcasts.
What I told people I was making a podcast about Benghazi, nine times out of ten, they called me a masochist, rolled their eyes, or just asked, why?
Benghazi, the truth became a web of lies.
From Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries, this is Fiasco, Benghazi.
What difference at this point does it make?
Listen to Fiasco, Benghazi, on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Always honored to be in for Sean Hannity.
It is your boy Joe Paggs.
Really, really glad that you stopped by today.
Ron Johnson, U.S. Senator, great state of Wisconsin.
We'll be on in just a couple of moments here.
Sean Farrish at the bottom of the hour, great impersonator of former President Trump.
You're not going to believe that it's not him.
If you're listening on the radio, you're really going to believe that it's Trump.
Make sure you stick around for that.
What jumps out at me this week is not a surprise, but it still jumps out because so many people act like Biden's going to be the guy next year.
Linda, let me ask you something up front if you don't mind.
Do you really think Biden's going to be the nominee?
I don't.
I do.
Really?
Yeah, I think.
I just don't see it.
I just feel they've got too much time, too much money, too many things.
Every time I think that something's coming up where they're actually going to get rid of him or they're really trying to push him out, he comes right back.
I don't know.
But the latest polls that you've seen, 34% approval, that means that a lot of Democrats don't approve of what he's doing.
The economy sucks.
We've got real wages down 3%, real costs for families up 16% to 17%.
You think he survives this?
Here's what I'll tell you.
When he was running for president the first time, everybody thought he was a moron.
He had been in Senate for 47 years, had screwed up, never done anything right.
And yet he became our candidate.
After 47 years of doing nothing, we said, hey, become president.
Show us for sure that this is what you want to do or this is how you work.
We just want to make sure.
Was you tried out?
I mean, come on.
You know, so to me, yeah, I just, I think that they kind of all know where the bodies are buried.
I think that there's just too, it's kind of like the Epstein fly logs.
You know what I mean?
Nobody wants to put them out.
I hear you.
You know, but the old saying always rings true in my head.
And I'm talking about myself when I say stupid.
It's the economy stupid.
And I think people really do vote according to their, people will hold their nose and vote for somebody other than the guy that has made them, you know, in a very bad financial state over the past four years.
I hope that I'm right about that, but I know Democrats are very smart.
You know that they're very smart as well and very strategic.
I just don't see it.
I don't know I would use the word smart.
I think I would say manipulative, strategic.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, well-funded.
I'll be stunned if it's him on the ballot next year, but you're right in that we're running out of time that he almost has to be in the ballot.
But I think the economy is going to be it.
I want to go to Senator Ron Johnson.
I talked to him just yesterday, and the economy, the budget, the spending, the debt, it's all top of mind.
Ron, I appreciate you coming on.
Doing well.
Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas is right back at you.
Let me start here with the big story yesterday that Joe Biden said, read different polls.
34% approval rating, Ron.
34%.
He's made things bad for business, made things bad for my bank account.
I make a pretty good buck.
You know, I do okay, but I am nowhere near in the kind of shape I was when Trump was leaving office.
What specifically happened to our economy and why does Biden keep trying to take credit for it being good?
Well, again, the America elected Democrats and Joe Biden.
You've heard me say this.
If you were asked to develop a strategy to destroy this country, you'd be hard-pressed to come up with the one that Biden is implementing.
The open borders, the 40-year high inflation, the war on fossil fuels, the embarrassing and dangerous surrender in Afghanistan, which emboldened Putin, President Xi, the Moles in Iran.
So again, everything this president has done, everything the Democrats in control do is just destroying this country.
It's weakening America.
And our adversaries notice it.
They become more aggressive.
And, for example, a dollar that you held to start the Biden administration is worth 85 cents.
That's not going away.
Inflation may be down, but that damage has already been done.
And people, their wages are not making up for it.
I don't think his budget people are incompetent, Ron.
I think they're doing it on purpose.
If I'm right and they're doing it on purpose, what's the end game?
What's the goal?
Well, again, with Democrats, it's always to make more Americans dependent on government dependent on them.
And so they just open up the floodgates, plunder and mortgage our children's future, spend like there's no tomorrow.
And who cares about the consequences?
They care at the time of the election in case it's not working out too well.
And so now they're scrambling.
Now they're trying to make amends.
Now they're in these negotiations to finally secure the border.
I don't believe them any further than I can throw them.
Yeah.
It's U.S. Representative, U.S. Senator Ron Johnson, great state of Wisconsin.
I don't think you would do this.
And I know Trump didn't do this.
I feel as though this administration is taking its cues.
It's walking and talking papers from the WEF and from the UN and from the World Health Organization.
Is that true?
When you look at all these new world leaders, people like Justin Trudeau, President Biden, others, they use the exact same phrase that comes out of Davos.
We're going to build back better.
I don't know if you've ever seen that video clip, but it's actually quite shocking.
This is coming out of the pandemic.
We're going to build back better.
You know, I do think there's an elite group of people, people like Bill Gates, Klaus Schwab, that exert far too much influence on these world organizations like the World Health Organization, the UN, the World Economic Forum.
But then that filters down into the people they've trained that have gone to Davos year after year.
They pick up on that ideology and they pretty well implement the same game plans, which are destructive to our freedoms, destructive to society.
Again, this is not, we are not heading in the right direction here.
Is there a seed change that we're watching happen?
Ron, you see what happened in Argentina.
You see what happened in the Netherlands.
Suddenly people have had enough and they're voting in people who are going to afford them more freedom, fewer regulations, less control at central government.
Is that happening or is it these just a couple of examples that are outliers?
Let's hope it is.
The problem is, you know, when conservatives, we don't want to get involved in government.
So we win the election like Ronald Reagan or whatever and we think, okay, we beat him.
We can go back to our lives.
But the left is relentless.
They want to increase their power.
They want to increase their control of their lives.
So they never stop.
They never believe they've been defeated and they haven't been defeated.
And, you know, so I try and point out, for example, Venezuelans voted themselves into poverty.
Right.
This took a couple decades.
You know, vote for Hugo Chavez, and that's the last time you have a legitimate election there, and the socialists will destroy that country.
I mean, look at what leftism does.
It never builds anything.
It builds a good propaganda arm.
It knows how to seize power.
It knows how to hoodwink the public.
But in terms of its policies, they destroy economies.
They destroy nations.
They rob people of freedom.
They result in totalitarian regimes where millions have been killed.
So again, that is the legacy of the left of socialism, of communism.
And yet, it sure sounds appealing, doesn't it?
Just make the rich pay their fair share and everything will become your bros.
The problem is that doesn't work.
They keep on yelling about the fair share.
You and I both know the top 1% pays almost 40%.
The top 10% pays almost 70%.
I'm not really sure what the fair share is.
I'm not even sure why we have a progressive tax system.
Everybody should pay the same percentage.
The rich will be paying a lot more anyway.
I think it was Steve Forbes that ran with a 17% flat tax and he failed at doing that.
So the whole tax system is messed up.
But the bigger point, I think, is that this is let's have class warfare.
Let's hate the rich.
Let's hate the people that are hiring us and employing us.
And God forbid they have a nicer house or a nicer car and meritocracy shouldn't matter.
When they say, let's make them pay their fair share, they're just pandering to people who are making less than them, right?
It's not really that they don't think they're paying their fair share because they are way more.
They're trying to divide us.
They know there's a lot more people in the middle class or at the lower income spectrum than there are at the top.
And so, again, it's a siren song.
Joe, if you would have asked me a couple of years ago, what's the greatest threat to this nation?
I would have said our debt and deficit.
We're still not addressing that.
It's a huge threat.
Right now, I'd say how horribly divided we are, but we're not an absolutely divided people.
On the big goals in life, we share the same goals.
We want safety, we want security, we want prosperity, opportunity.
Why are we so divided?
It's because people like Biden, Obama, the radical left, they are purposefully dividing us.
That's what critical race theory is.
That's what identity politics is all about.
That's quite honestly what the push is about transgenderism, that they're telling groups of people that those rascal Republicans are conservatives hate them so that they hate Republicans and vote accordingly.
And again, it's a divisive form of politics, but unfortunately, it works when you have the media infiltrated with a bunch of radical actors themselves.
U.S. Senator for the great state of Wisconsin, it's Ron Johnson, and we appreciate the time, Ron.
When will we get a balanced budget?
I know it sounds like a dumb question.
I already don't like baseline budgeting where every year it goes up automatically.
I'm not really sure why you guys have to do that.
But is it going to take the Senate going back into Republican hands?
Do we have to get the president again?
We haven't had a balanced budget since Bill Clinton.
And that was because the very Republican House and Senate forced its hand.
When will we start balancing that?
You and I have to balance our budgets in our homes.
Why don't you guys have to do it in Washington?
Because there's no constitutional amendment to do it.
And politicians have found out that their constituents love the benefits and nobody wants to pay for them.
So last year we had about a $2 trillion deficit.
It was reported at $1.7, but about $300 billion of that is just the student loan forgiveness was ruled unconstitutional.
So they got that money back.
So it's about $2 trillion.
More than 70% of the budget is called mandatory spending, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid.
But we grew mandatory spending over the last four years by more than a half trillion dollars because I would say Republican leadership was asleep at the wheel and they didn't scream about it.
But again, Democrats have no problem plundering our children's future.
So this is a massive problem.
It's not going away anytime soon.
And the only solution is everything needs to be looked at together.
You can't wall off 70% of your budget and expect to balance it.
It just doesn't work.
But now that's it.
Ron Johnson said he's going after Social Security, going after Medicare, going after Medicaid.
The fact that you just said that means that you want everything on the table to renegotiate and talk about.
Now you're on the bad side.
Oh, no, I didn't use the word discretionary spending.
I mean, that's just a budgetary term.
When I did that during my campaign, they immediately lied and said, oh, he wants to put it on the chopping block.
He wants to cut Social Security.
No, I want to save it.
The trust fund is an accounting fiction.
A U.S. government bond held by the government has no value.
That fiction runs out in about 2033, 2034.
Then benefits are going to be reduced to revenue, which is about 75, 80%.
The question is, will we have the financial wherewithal in the general budget to plus up those benefits?
That is a $64,000 question.
Right now, it's going to be very difficult to honor those promises because, again, we're running $2 trillion deficits.
Interest rates are high.
It might be pretty difficult to bring those things down in terms of what the government can borrow at because we're a credit risk.
Right.
It's U.S. Senator Ron Johnson, great state of Wisconsin.
Looking toward next year, see, this is always the quandary for me.
We've got another year until the election where we could get the Senate back and we could get a Republican in the White House and maybe we can lessen government control, lessen regulations, lower our debt.
I mean, it's all, it sounds like a pipe dream, but we're less than a year away now.
Do you feel positive going into that or not?
You know, I see a lot more positive, for example, if my election would have been a landslide in 2022.
Right.
Yeah, but there was a lot.
Ron, there is a lot of money thrown at you, though.
I realize that, but in an insane world with an unbiased media, that election would have even been close.
It was a nail biter.
So, again, the Democrats are very good at what they do.
They only have to mine votes in the big cities.
They just have to push an issue like abortion.
Republicans, we have to get votes from every little small town throughout our states.
It's a much more difficult challenge.
But that's why, for example, Democrats push mail and balloting.
They want to expand abstee balloting while they reduce all the controls on it.
Again, Democrats want to make it easier to cheat.
Republicans want to make it easy to vote, but impossible to cheat.
But again, we don't have all the levels of power to do that.
It is U.S. Senator.
I don't know why I keep saying that.
U.S. Senator Ron Johnson, great state of Wisconsin.
Really appreciate you coming on.
You mentioned Venezuela earlier, and they did vote themselves in a horrible dictator.
And they probably will never get the vote back again until there's some sort of an uprising and revolution in that country.
Let's look at Ukraine for a second because I'm here to tell you, I don't care how in trouble I get, that Zelensky is acting like a little dictator, too.
And here's what I mean.
Let's cancel elections in Ukraine because of the war.
Abraham Lincoln didn't cancel elections in the United States during the Civil War.
Let's cancel elections.
Let's stop people from worshiping at the Russian Orthodox Catholic Church.
Let's shut down any press or media outlet that dares say anything that's critical of this guy.
I mean, it's starting to look the same to me, like they've got somebody in charge who isn't necessarily worried about democracy, which is what this administration keeps telling us we're fighting for.
What is your take on this?
Well, first of all, I think the most important reality in Ukraine is that Putin will not lose that war.
It's a fantasy to think that Ukraine can win.
They can't lob missiles into Moscow to try and reduce the Russian support for the war.
Losing is existential to Putin.
He has nuclear weapons.
He would use them if that ever came to that.
So you have to recognize that reality.
I don't like the reality.
He's a war criminal.
I appreciate what the courageous Ukrainian people have done to fight for their freedom, their families.
But the fact of the matter is, the only way that war ends is with a negotiated settlement.
Every day that goes by, more Ukrainians die, more Russian conscripts die.
I take no joy in that.
And more of Ukraine gets destroyed.
So the strategy of the United States and Ukraine ought to be to try and pressure Putin into actually settling.
1,000%.
Senator Ron Johnson, great state of Wisconsin, that entire interview up on Rumble.
He goes even further into what we should be doing with Ukraine and a lot more.
So go to rumble.com slash JoePaggs.
It's Joe Paggs in for Sean Hannity.
We're back right after this.
Stay here.
Hey there, I'm Mary Catherine Hamm.
And I'm Carol Markowitz.
We've been in political media for a long time.
Long enough to know that it's gotten, well, a little insane.

We talk about the issues that actually matter to the country without panic, without yelling, and with a healthy dose of humor.
We don't take ourselves too seriously, but we do take the truth seriously.
So if you're into common sense, sanity, and some occasional sass.
You're our kind of people.

What I told people I was making a podcast about Benghazi.
Nine times out of ten, they called me a masochist, rolled their eyes, or just asked, why?
Benghazi, the truth became a web of lies.
It's almost a dirty word, one that connotes conspiracy theory.
Will we ever get the truth about the Benghazi massacre?
Bad faith, political warfare, and frankly, bullshit.
We kill the ambassador just to cover something up.
You put two and two together.
Was it an overblown distraction or a sinister conspiracy?
Benghazi is a Rosetta Stone for everything that's been going on for the last 20 years.
I'm Leon Nafok from Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries.
This is Fiasco, Benghazi.
What difference at this point does it make?
Yes, that's right.
Lock her up.

Great to have you along for the ride.
Thanks a lot for stopping by.
Glad to have this man back.
He is by far, bar none, the best Trump imitator on the planet, but he's also a great mind and a great voice for the movement.
It's Sean Ferris.
Sean, how are you?
Good to see you again.
Great to be back.
Thank you for having me.
Always love coming on the Joe Paggs show.
You know, it's exciting.
It's always exciting to join you.
Last time we had our conversation, I think it was amazing.
We shared a bunch of clips from it, and I got a lot of great feedback.
I think you did too.
And yeah, I think it was just a lot of fun.
So always happy to be back.
There is not one person that complained about it.
And I know that it did well just about everywhere except TikTok.
TikTok will squelch you as much as they can, which is fine.
That just means that you're doing it right.
And again, your tone of voice is already similar, but you don't talk like Trump at all.
I mean, I'm from Long Island.
You talk like a guy from Long Island.
But the way that you just click in and in these spaces on X, it's like Sean Farrish is going to be on and he's going to bring the president, which I think is awesome.
Do you get tired of doing it or do you still love it?
I got to tell you.
So those Tuesday night spaces with Mark Naughton, they call him Trump Tuesday.
And he started, he's like, hey, would you mind coming in one time and just messing around?
I do it all the time in spaces.
It helps me because people will feel, you know, they'll throw questions at me.
I don't know what they're going to ask.
And it gives me the opportunity to just improv and ad-lib and literally just have fun.
And that's the best thing, a creative exercise from my standpoint is to just sit down.
Someone asked me something ridiculous about, you know, Chris Christie or, you know, anything, anything.
What are you eating tonight?
And we could just have fun.
And I never get tired of stuff like that.
I mean, I could even remember before I started putting this type of content out.
I'd be sitting down, you know, around a fire with some friends back on Long Island and we would just start breaking out and say, hey, you know, what would Trump say to this?
What would Trump say to that?
You know, we'd be drinking a few adult sodas and just having a blast.
And that's when the most fun, you know, and it's just a great creative exercise.
So to answer your question, no, I don't get tired of it.
I love it.
And I'll be back on Trump Tuesday tomorrow, as long as there is one, and there should be.
So we'll be having fun again.
I'm going to jump in there if I can.
It's CaptainDeplorable45.com.
Captain Deplorable, the number45.com.
It's Sean Farrish.
Sean, how do they find you on social media?
Is it all just your name, Sean Farrish?
Yeah, it's S-H-A-W-N underscore F-A-R-A-S-H, anywhere around social media, Twitter, Truth, Getter, Instagram.
There's no underscore.
And so you could just find me there.
We have a lot of fun, you know, when we're doing anything.
So we'd be happy to have anybody who's watching and listening to follow and have some fun with us.
Yeah, you want to do a little something, something here?
You want to do a little back and forth with a little Trump?
You want to do a little Trump?
Let's go.
Mr. President, glad to have you back on the program.
Chris Christie just yesterday really lit Twitter up because he's going after Nikki Haley for being too easy on you.
Any reaction?
Well, that's not the first thing he lit up.
You know, you saw that house in Arlington, Virginia.
It went up in flames because he ripped one is what I heard.
That's what I'm hearing.
He let one go and then somebody tried to light a cigarette and the house went up.
That's what they say.
It went up and smoke.
But he wants to hit Nikki Haley for being too soft on me.
Well, I can tell you that she's probably smart for doing that.
And anybody who comes at me usually faces the wrath of Hurricane Don, as you know.
It's not a good place to be.
But Chris Christie can criticize a lot of people.
I like to criticize Chris Christie, namely over his diet.
You know, you heard Southwest Airlines is giving free seats to people of size.
You heard that, people of size.
Chris Christie is their number one customer.
He's going to get an entire row, an entire row for Chris.
He spills over the armrest.
Nobody wants to sit next to him anyway.
But he's going to get those seats for free.
What a deal.
First time he's ever made a good deal in his life, believe me.
Mr. President, I appreciate that.
Liz Cheney says she may jump in and be a third-party candidate just to make sure you don't make it.
Well, Lion Liz Traney is a terrible person, and that's not the worst thing she could do.
You know, she could invite her father on a quail hunt.
You know how that usually goes.
But if anybody's going to be jumping in, I'm hoping it's her and not Chris, because when he jumps, you know, you have what's called seismic activity.
A lot of things like to fall over.
Same with, I call her the beast of the Southeast.
Stacey Abrams, she's a terrible person, too.
But Liz Lion Liz Traney wants to jump right in.
I can tell her, come on in, the water's fine, and there's plenty of these people on the stage that we like to come at.
The only one we don't want to talk about is Vivek.
He thinks I'm a great person, so I think he's a good person, too.
But the rest of them are horrible people, and we're going to take care of them.
It's Sean Farish as Donald Trump.
Sean, it's amazing.
Now, I feel really bad because last time I had you do a piece for my mother-in-law, Renee, in Saginaw, Michigan.
And we sent it to her, the audio, and she started calling her relatives.
Oh, my God, Trump knows who I am.
He did this thing.
This is amazing.
We didn't tell her that it was you.
And I mean, that's how, I mean, she's a huge Trump fan, has been forever.
She could not tell that it wasn't him.
See, now it puts me in the pickle.
You did this to me, Farish, because when I talk to Trump again next time, I've interviewed him like 13 times.
I'm going to have to ask him to actually say hello to Renee from Saginaw or else I'm going to be in big trouble, I think, forever.
That's how good it is.
Have you ever done it and not let him off the hook?
No, because the thing is, I cross lines when I do it.
And so I don't ever want to put Donald Trump in a spot because, you know, I've done it to scammers.
You know, they'll call me about the extended warranty.
Somebody called me about solar and I asked for, I said, I want 400 miles of solar panel on the southern border.
Can you do that?
It's a beautiful thing.
And they were like, oh, it sounds like I'm talking to Mr. Trump.
And I'm like, well, we have to make sure that they know that that's not who it is.
But, you know, I never want to put him in a bad spot.
So earlier in the year in June, after Adam Schiff got censured, I pranked called Adam Schiff's office and left him a voicemail like that.
Wow.
But I recorded the video of me doing it because, you know, he falls for stuff like that.
He got pranked by Russians.
So the last thing I wanted, I mean, it was the first thing I wanted, but the last thing I wanted.
The last thing I wanted was there to not be video evidence that it was me and me putting it out in real time that it was me.
And then him going to MSNBC, oh, Donald Trump pranked me and he called me a pencil neck.
It's like, well, we know that already.
So what I wanted was to put the video out and then for him to do it.
And then for us to be like, hey, dummy, it's this guy.
It's not Donald Trump.
But, you know, I always want to make sure that when I cross lines or when I make the jokes, that people know it's me.
It's not him.
It is stuff that he might say at a certain time where it's stuff that he has said.
He's called Adam Schiff a pencil neck.
He's called him a watermelon head.
He's called him bug guys.
He said, it's an engineering miracle, that tiny little neck holding that big head.
It's incredible.
But I want to make sure that, you know, when I cross those lines, that they know it's not him.
It's just me.
I'm just having fun so he can be let off the hook.
He's got a show on Rumble.
It's called Ungoverned.
When is that show on so people can go and check it out next time?
So that runs 5 p.m. Eastern, Monday through Friday on rumblerumble.com slash LFA TV.
We have a blast.
I hope to see you there.
Join the live chat and let us know you came from the Joe Pank show.
He goes five to six.
I go six to nine.
You couldn't get any better.
It's a pretty good team.
It's Sean Ferris.
Go and follow him everywhere.
It's F-A-R-A-S-H is his last name.
Let's do Trump's naughty and nice list.
Have you got a list of the naughty and nice this year, Mr. President?
So we have it here.
We have a beautiful list on the naughty list.
We have a new addition to the naughty list.
We have the Senate staffer.
You know that?
He did some naughty things in the hearing room.
We're not supposed to talk about it.
But we have AOC.
We're going to give her call.
We're going to give Ronda Sanctimonious call too.
We're going to put it in his boots.
You've heard a lot about his boots.
We're going to give Judge Engeron some white strips.
He needs them for his teeth.
You know that?
He's got candy corn teeth.
You know, KJP, she's a stupid person.
AOC, she's a stupid person.
Hunter's on the naughty list, too.
We're going to give him some Parmesan cheese.
And on the nice list, you know, we have the great Dan Bongino.
He wore the face paint.
We have Vivek Ramaswamy because he thinks I'm great.
We also have Joe Pags.
You're on the nice list.
I have to say that.
Javier Milly, because he did MAGA.
Make Argentina great again.
Fantastic idea.
Got it from me.
Cornpop is also on the nice list because anybody who Crooked Joe thinks is a bad dude is obviously on the nice list.
We're going to give a shout out to the Dilly Meme team.
They're on the nice list.
Cat Turd is a fantastic person.
He's on the nice list as well.
And the fly that landed on Mike Pence's head is also on the nice list.
So many more to come.
You better watch out.
You better not cry because I'm coming to town, believe me.
It is Sean Farrish doing his spot-on Donald Trump impersonation.
He's the naughty and nice list.
You got to love that.
I want to get into some of the stuff you talk about on Ungoverned because when you get going, you can really rip and light people up when it comes to good versus evil, right versus wrong, conservative values, American values versus this globalism crap.
Before we do that, though, I have to ask you: do you want to sing a song as Trump, a Christmas song?
No, I got to get my lyrics pulled up, but we can give Reddit Snow a rip.
Yeah, we could do it.
Why not?
I'm passing through the other day, and there you are on Twitter on X or whatever.
And there's a video of you singing.
Listen, I'll be honest with you.
I'm not faking any laughter.
And I am jaded, dude.
I've been in this business way too long.
I don't laugh at anything.
I almost pride myself at not laughing.
And you get me every single time.
I would love to hear a little Christmas Diddy from the president, if you don't mind.
Yeah, we'll do the new one.
We'll do Chestnuts Roasting.
This is one of my favorites.
So we had, we did it.
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire.
Children being sniffed by Sleepy Joe.
Hunter Biden in the corner trying to get even higher.
And Pocahontas dressed up like an Eskimo.
Chris Christie ate all the turkey and the mistletoe.
Peekaboo, Letitia James just ain't that bright.
If you're in the room, when Eric Swalwell lets one go, you'll find it hard to breathe tonight.
They know that Trump is on his way.
He'll close the border on his first day.
And their whole plan will have backfired when we tell Crooked Joe, you're fired.
And so I'm offering this simple phrase.
We'll say, from now until the end, although it's been said many times, many ways, make America great again.
That's chestnuts roasting on it.
We had a lot of fun writing that one.
The audience and myself.
We wrote it together.
So it was a lot of fun.
No, I think it's just everything you do is just spot on.
Let's talk about it.
I saw a few clips from Ungoverned, I think, on Instagram.
And I'm looking at him going, wow.
I mean, he's spot on.
He's really letting it go.
Do you find it an interesting balance, or is it smooth and easy for you now because you've been doing it for a while to go from let's have some fun with the Trump voice, let's sing a song that the audience helps me write.
And let me tell you what's wrong with it with the world today.
Is it a different balance or is it just you hanging out for an hour?
Whatever comes out comes out.
Yeah, you know, it is an interesting balance.
You know, ungoverned is more of my serious side, but we don't want to just hit people over the head because the news is heavy these days.
So we always have fun.
We like to work in the stories about Southwest Airlines.
We like to work in.
We did a whole show on Friday about how Hunter Biden says he's going to flee the country.
He might flee the country if Trump wins.
And we talked about how Donald Trump was deemed a flight risk by Fannie Willis.
And we had fun with that idea because obviously, you know, if he escapes the country, he's going to do it with a plane with his name on it, you know, or he's going to do fly commercial.
People don't know what he looks like.
They don't know what he sounds like.
That's how I do this.
You know, they know what he sounds like.
So, you know, we had fun with that.
And it is an interesting balance.
But when we're, you know, talking about these real world issues, whether it's Claudine Gay at Harvard or Liz McGill at UPenn or, you know, now, you know, later today, we're going to be talking about it.
Hamas coming out and talking about how they have admitted to shelling an Israeli hospital.
Well, we're going to be asking, where's Rashida Tlaib, who cried about the hospital in Gaza that Israel didn't bomb, right?
So, you know, whether it's all of those pointing out the left's hypocrisy, having fun at their expense, that's the type of stuff that we do.
And yeah, I do get very passionate about that.
Well, I love that you do it because, well, first of all, it's smart.
You got the audience there because they know you do the Trump voice and that you're a very, very funny guy and you're very quick.
Those spaces where you're so quick on your feet, amazing.
I mean, it blows my mind that you're just so fast.
And can you do one about this, Mr. President?
Boom, boom, boom.
Here it is.
So that's great.
But now that you've got the audience, hey, let me hit you in the head with some fact as well.
Let me hit you in the head with some truth, some hypocrisy from the left.
And has anybody, because I've had people do this where they think I'm the parody song guy, or they think I'm the saxophone player, or they think I'm the guy who just tells stories like Paul Harvey.
Then I'll hit them with some hard politics.
A few people will go, oh, I didn't know you were this guy.
Does anybody do that with you or do they get it going in?
So that's happened a few times.
You know, there'll maybe be a new person who will hop into the chat and go, hey, aren't you like the guy who does Trump's voice?
And yeah, that's me.
And by the way, speaking of your saxophone, I saw that national anthem.
I think that was the national anthem at the Police State Premiere.
Unbelievable job.
Thank you, Brad.
I played Alto Saxon in high school, and that was one of the first songs that I learned how to play by myself.
I just listened and started figuring it out.
Yeah, right.
You know, but there are people who will do that.
And then there are folks who think that it's just a fun in-game show, and they come in and they go, oh, hold on.
This is, you know, wow.
Okay, that makes sense.
And so that's kind of what I want, right?
My biggest thing has always been, we have this voice.
There's this skill.
Nobody does it like I can do it.
We know that, okay, there's some people who try, but they don't do it very well.
And that's all good and great.
And I love the laughter and I love to be able to entertain.
And I've always been the class clown and it's always been a good time.
But I really want to win, right?
I mean, that's been my thing forever.
I want to turn likes and shares and clicks and comments and views and all that into victories or ways to win.

What I told people I was making a podcast about Benghazi, nine times out of ten, they called me a masochist, rolled their eyes, or just asked, why?
Benghazi, the truth became a web of lies.
From Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries, this is Fiasco, Benghazi.
What difference at this point does it make?
