	Thank you.
	Thank you.
	Thank you.
	on in the Republican Party here and I am upset about what happened last night.
	We've become a party of losers at the end of the day.
	It was a cancer in the Republican establishment.
	Let's speak the truth.
	I mean, since Ronald McDaniel took over as chairwoman of the RNC in 2017, we have lost 2018.
	2020.
	2022, no red wave that never came.
	We got trounced last night in 2023.
	And I think that we have to have accountability in our party.
	For that matter, Ron, if you want to come on stage tonight, you want to look the GOP voters in the eye and tell them you resign, I will turn over my, yield my time to you.
	And frankly, look, the people there are cheering for losing in the Republican Party.
	Think about who's moderating this debate.
	This should be Tucker Carlson, Joe Rogan, and Elon Musk.
	We'd have ten times the viewership asking questions that GOP primary voters actually care about and bringing more people into our party.
	Do you think the Democrats, and we've got Kristen Welker here, do you think the Democrats would actually hire Greg Gutfeld to host a Democratic debate?
	They wouldn't do it.
	And so the fact of the matter is, I mean, Christian, I'm going to use this time because this is actually about you in the media and the corrupt media establishment.
	Ask you the Trump-Russia collusion hoax that you pushed on this network for years.
	Was that real or was that Hillary Clinton made up disinformation?
	Answer the question.
	Go.
	This is how we get our country back.
	We need accountability because this media rigged the 2016 election.
	They rigged the 2020 election with a Hunter Biden laptop story.
	And they're going to rig this election.
	Your time is up.
	Let me turn to Governor Christie.
	He's not wrong, obviously.
	We have major problems within the Republican Party, in conservative media.
	I mean, we're just not winning.
	We're not winning.
	Even if we win an election in the sense that, you know, we flip seats or, you know, we won the House, the Senate, whatever it might be.
	We're not it's not a net win for the movement because there's really not a whole lot of meaning behind conservatism anymore or what it means to be Republican.
	And if we don't have an opposition to the Democratic Party, if we don't have a true opposition, I don't mean, you know, just low taxes, right?
	Because there are Democrats that, you know, they're just completely off the reservation doing a hell of a lot more left-wing things than just higher taxes.
	So we're not going to get anywhere with these more milquetoast messaging or with some of these more milquetoast messages, particularly as it pertains to social issues and things like that.
	And this is largely the fault of the RNC, but also Congress, obviously, and the Senate as well.
	It just feels like there's something major happening.
	There's definitely a change that I think is on the horizon because people are sick and tired of watching the party lose.
	And we're told that if we take a more moderate approach, that we'll then win.
	That we need to walk this party line.
	That we need to negotiate.
	We need to work with the Democrats.
	Really?
	Really?
	Because where has that gotten us?
	Not very far.
	And as far as the RNC goes, it's been an absolute disaster under Ronna McDaniel.
	And Trump even said it himself.
	You know, at first she was doing all right, but she was feeding him bad information the entire time during the 2022 election.
	I remember that.
	She would go to Mar-a-Lago and have these meetings with him and, of course, the people who work with her.
	And they just had the worst...
	They just gave him the worst information regarding the 2022 election, who to endorse.
	And this was of course the midterms.
	And it just screwed us all over.
	And it just proved to us that we don't have any real insiders that are representing the nationalist movement.
	And that's a real problem.
	Because if we don't have people on the inside who are going to be informing him of, you know, the right people to endorse, the right polls to look at, then what's the use of having a Republican Party at all?
	And so that's the fault of the RNC. That's a real problem.
	Now, Trump claims to not really be taking advice from these people, but the reality is they do hold some amount of power, not over him per se, meaning his campaign, but over the conservative movement, which isn't conservative at all.
	They're losing that power, which is good to see, which is why I think Trump holds a lot of leverage in this game.
	And it'll be interesting to see how he...
	How he handles this if he wins the 2024 election, and hopefully he will, obviously.
	It'll be interesting to see how much attention he actually places on the RNC at all, on whoever the leadership might be, which we were told Rana was stepping down.
	Now she's saying a whole different thing, and we'll be addressing that today as well.
	But then also we have this border issue, which is beyond a social issue or a fiscal issue, really.
	It is just the worst issue we could be dealing with right now because it is destroying us in basically every single way.
	Fiscal, socially, you name it.
	And it is a pressing matter.
	And it sucks that we can't actually have a serious discussion over this because the Democrats don't want to do that.
	The Uniparty doesn't want to.
	And they'll create these bills.
	They'll tell us it's a border bill.
	But in reality, it's just a bill full of foreign aid with a little bit for the border.
	and like we discussed yesterday i believe it was yesterday on the show you know when the systems are inherently failing when they're inherently flawed or the the executive branch is not enforcing this they're not exec executing the authority that they do have at the southern border there's no use in continuing to fund it and if you do continue to fund it then it's just going to create more problems because obviously it's not working and this border bill
	i mean the border situation has just been such a failure on behalf of republicans they did crush this recent bill but the reality is they still haven't they're still a long way from fixing the border and this bill would not have fixed it so it's a good thing that it's dead it's good a good thing that it's been dead for a while but that doesn't really mean much because all they did was stop some money from going to foreign countries which we need to stop doing but But like I said, it's not like we're getting anywhere.
	The Democrats are constantly on the offense and we're constantly on the defense just trying to maintain some level of control when we have none at all.
	And I say we, even though I don't really consider myself a Republican, but it's the closest thing we have.
	And some of the conservatives within the movement actually care.
	But for the most part, they don't.
	They don't.
	And honestly, RIP, Republican Party, because it sucks and it has sucked for a long time, the only one who can really save you now is basically Donald J. Trump.
	And people hate it when I say it.
	There are people who don't like Trump, but what you have to understand is he is our only hope.
	Not just he himself, but rather the movement that he represents.
	And people need to wake up and realize that.
	The only hope we have is if we make major changes to...
	The Republican Party or just dismantle it as a whole and create something different.
	Like, it's just a disaster.
	It really is.
	And we have no real representation.
	There's really no difference between Democrats and Republicans at this point.
	And that's why we call it the Uniparty.
	So without further ado, guys, stay tuned for this very important episode of Wrong Think Primetime.
	Hello and welcome to Wrong Think Primetime, everyone.
	I'm Anna Perez.
	Thank you so much for being here on this Wednesday night.
	I'm not going to lie.
	I'm not super in the mood to do a show today.
	But I don't know why.
	I'm more tired than usual.
	But I am happy to see you guys, obviously.
	I like to hang out.
	I like to read the chat.
	It's fun.
	It's fun for me.
	I mean, I like to host the show just as a whole, but my favorite part is obviously talking to you guys.
	That has become a cornerstone of Wrong Think Primetime and Wrong Think, my afternoon show.
	Anyway, before we jump in, please make sure you rumble the show.
	Hit the thumbs up button.
	Subscribe to SPN, the Stu Peters Network.
	It's an amazing network, and a lot of you guys are saying, oh, Anna's leaving SPN.
	Yes, I'm leaving TV in general for those of you...
	I feel like I've been...
	Saying this every single day.
	No, I don't have COVID. I don't know why somebody just said that.
	Although I did have jury duty yesterday, or I was supposed to, and I told them I had COVID. Is that wrong to say that?
	I told them that I allegedly have COVID, so hopefully I don't get in trouble for that.
	Well, they have no proof of either which way.
	Anyway, I postponed it.
	I didn't feel like it.
	So, also, I was busy.
	Yesterday was just a busy day for me.
	But today I'm just a little out of it.
	I'm just a little tired.
	But, yes, please rumble the show.
	I think what it is is I'm just, like, realizing, like, oh, my show's coming to an end.
	And, you know, I'm just kind of – I'll be honest.
	I think I'm just, like, burnt out, like – I've done a lot of...
	I mean, I do two and a half shows a day.
	And it takes a lot of energy doing this sort of work because even though you're only on air for like an hour per show, whatever it might be, and then that's not even counting hits that I do.
	There are some hits I'll do where I'll be on TV for like three hours.
	I'm not even kidding.
	It's weird.
	I'm like, at that point, just pay me, you know?
	Yeah.
	No, I'm just kidding.
	I would never ask that.
	But sometimes they can be really long hits and you have to factor that in.
	Although I stopped doing hits about two weeks ago.
	So, because I've just been kind of slowly taking myself out of the public eye.
	That's kind of been the plan here.
	So, anyway.
	Where was I going with that?
	Oh, yeah.
	Rumble the show.
	Subscribe to Stu Peters.
	Oh, yes.
	So, yes, I am leaving the Stu Peters Network and pretty much all TV by next week.
	Friday will be my last show on Conservative Daily.
	Next Friday will be my last show on SPN. So I don't know who's going to be replacing me, if anybody, at least at this time.
	But I'm sure if they do get someone, they're going to be amazing.
	I have nothing but love for the Stu Peters Network.
	It was such a blessing to be here.
	And, you know, Stu's been such a great friend to me.
	The whole team here has, and it's really bittersweet for me.
	I know this is the right step for my life right now, but obviously I'm going to miss the team here.
	I'm going to miss TV. Actually, no, I don't think I'll miss TV. I'll be honest.
	I was reaching a point where I'm just like, eh.
	Like I said, I'll miss you guys, but not really TV. Anyway, let's go ahead and see who's in the chat.
	Cass asks Rumble, says Anna's on overload.
	Don't know how she does it, and I'm a go-getter.
	Yeah, I sort of am.
	I sort of am.
	And I don't know.
	I think I've just, ever since I was like 18 and I went to college and I started interning and I hit the ground running.
	Like I did a lot when I got to college.
	Like I just, and even before that, when I was in high school, I always did so much stuff.
	Like I just, I've always been a very ambitious person.
	And I think at a certain point, you got to be careful with that sometimes because you'll just hit a wall.
	And I'm not saying that that's really happening to me necessarily, but I think that as far as TV can be, politics and media can be pretty exhausting and it can be pretty draining because it's not a normal job where you can kind of go into work and just function like 50, 60, 70 percent.
	You know, a 9 to 5 job.
	Because you can kind of like slide by, do the bare minimum in those jobs.
	And these types of jobs, you kind of have to be on all the time.
	And that can be really draining.
	So, and I've always been involved in politics and media for as long as I can remember.
	Even in high school I was.
	So, you know, I've always just been a very active person.
	I've just been very, very busy.
	Even my, like, I don't know.
	I've just been always like that.
	So I think I'm getting a little burnt out.
	Okay, let's see who else.
	Steven, gorgeous.
	We have Mario PL. We have Lily Creek.
	We have 16 Riley.
	Dewdenator says, let's all hang out.
	Yeah.
	Let's see.
	Hawkeye7, D-Nice, Infowarrior, Lily Creek, great to see you.
	ME007, Anonymous Sex?
	What?
	Anyway, it says, please do more interviews or even a Part 3 documentary with Brian Artis.
	No.
	You will be missed, Anna, says Steven.
	Oh, you will be too.
	Copernicus.
	So salty.
	Hamster brain says Copernicus.
	Yeah, maybe so.
	Yours is freezing.
	It's freezing for one of you.
	Hi, Anna, says my mom.
	Hi, mom.
	Thanks for joining the chat.
	LenoreFamily5.
	Dan the drummer.
	Who else?
	CassassRumble.
	Deborah335.
	I was calling my mom earlier today and I was like, should I just change my number and just totally go off the grid?
	Is that what I should do next?
	I'm in the mood to do that.
	I don't know.
	And my mom was like, I guess go for it, but you're going to have a hard time getting in contact with people.
	Maybe I won't go that far, but maybe I'll change some of my contact info.
	Um...
	Let's see.
	Freethinker26.
	Infowarrior.
	I think I said hi to all of you guys.
	Goldenbolt says, I had to stop commenting on political posts just to get some peace, let alone being a political commentator.
	Gotta be partially dead inside to manage that.
	Yeah, you kind of do.
	It takes a certain kind of person to do this sort of thing forever.
	And I just don't think that person is me.
	And I think that you have to be a little bit insane even to want to take on this type of career to begin with.
	And I am a little insane, I guess.
	Like a reasonable kind of insane, which I guess doesn't really make sense.
	But I'm sane enough to know and understand that Everything in life is a season, and this is a season that is passing for me.
	Let me see who I missed at the top.
	Truth Too Deep, D-Nice, I Hate Mark Eferberg, and Blue Wolverines, AV1965. I'm autistic about this sort of thing.
	I like to make sure I say hello to everybody.
	I just don't use social media, says Mikey Mouse.
	Yeah, well, for the longest time, I couldn't.
	I mean, I had to use social media because of my job, but this is the first time I can just, like, not use social media, which, if you were watching my show yesterday, you know that I just don't like social media.
	Never been that much of a fan.
	Um...
	It's just weird.
	Why would you assume that people care about your life?
	You have to be very egocentric to just be constantly posting stuff.
	I guess I sort of understand if you want to inform your family what you're up to, I guess, but just call them.
	I don't know.
	That's just me though.
	I'm not a big...
	Twitter I get because when you're a social media personality or a media personality in general, you have to say things all the time constantly.
	So that's different.
	But that's what I'm saying.
	If I'm not doing this for a living, then I have no interest in really being active on social media.
	I like to post memes sometimes, but that's about it.
	Um...
	Oh, well, this is the best goodbye for sure.
	We do have that.
	Nana can't be replaced.
	Will be missed 100%.
	I have a headache now, too.
	Not my day.
	I'll be honest.
	I'll be honest.
	All right, so let's jump right in because we have a lot to talk about, per usual.
	And starting with the RNC, what the hell is going on with Ronna McDaniel, chairwoman of the RNC, who nobody really likes?
	Um...
	Well, Donald Trump had some interesting remarks the other day.
	He did an interview with Maria, whatever her last name is, from Fox News, where he said, oh, I think there's going to be some changes happening soon.
	Here's what he said, I think about two days ago.
	You talk about this optimism ahead that we could see some relief, but the RNC doesn't seem to be so strong.
	I mean, the Democrats have all the money.
	Look at what we see.
	We've got the Democrats actually with the money and spending it.
	The RNC is seeking credit lines.
	The RNC reported its lowest bank balance at the point in any year in 2016.
	Comerica says Michigan GOP defaulted on a loan of half a million dollars.
	So I have a lot of money.
	And the money that they get, people are not looking at the RNC. They want changes.
	You have to understand.
	I have nothing to do with the RNC. I'm separate.
	How's Ron McDaniel doing?
	I think she did great when she ran Michigan for me.
	I think she did okay initially in the RNC. I would say right now there'll probably be some changes made.
	I like how he was like, I have a lot of money.
	And that's true.
	His campaign is kind of separate from the RNC. But the RNC still has leverage for some reason.
	And for as much as he says he distrusts the establishment Republican Party, I found that in 2022 he did get a lot of advice on who to endorse in the midterm race and...
	What comes to mind is, of course, Eric Greitens' race, a few others.
	Really good candidates lost that race, and that was a shame.
	But, or I should say lost the nomination.
	But, you know, there he is telling us we're going to get some changes, we're going to see changes in the RNC, and that's important because, obviously, the RNC is what funds a lot of these other campaigns.
	They help with Republican candidates, not necessarily Trump, obviously, not every single candidate, but It matters because they have money or they have in the past and the money is what's given them power.
	Now they've been losing money recently and that's largely because people don't trust them.
	They don't trust the work that they're doing because, well, I don't know, we keep losing.
	So most people were pretty happy to hear that Trump had that announcement to make that there's going to be some leadership changes.
	Then this report came out, I believe, a day later.
	I mean, the whole thing has just been happening so quickly as far as all this information coming out.
	So this is what came out the following day, breaking Ronald McDaniel to step down as RNC chair.
	And basically, Trump is likely to back Michael Watley, who currently heads...
	The North Carolina GOP. So basically, yeah, there's all sorts of talk going on about who the next Ronna McDaniel will be, the next chairwoman of the RNC will be.
	And people are under the impression that she's stepping down.
	People were really excited to hear that.
	Some people wanted, what's that guy's name, Scott Presley, to be the RNC chair.
	But then we find out this interesting piece of information.
	Very bizarre, the course of events that have taken place over the past couple of days.
	Because then we find out that that may not be the case, or at least it seems that they're trying to run cover for this.
	So Charlie Kirk tweeted out, Ronna McDaniel just sent out an email denying reports that she's agreed to step down, saying rumors to the contrary are simply not true.
	Nothing has changed and nothing will be decided until after South Carolina.
	An inside source tells me this is the RNC's attempt to slow things down because they've lost control of the process, i.e.
	who replaces Ronna, who will be co-chair, etc.
	Take a look at this.
	So this is the email she sends out, okay?
	of palace intrigue and speculation surrounding all of us.
	I want to take the time to reassure all of you that I'm still hard at work as RNC chairwoman and building a machine that will elect Republicans up and down the ballot in November.
	Okay, but that means nothing if they're just going to have an R next to their name and they're not going to do anything conservative.
	Anyway, I'm currently on the road fundraising We're staffing up with staff on the ground in 15 states.
	The team is busy making phone calls and knocking doors to get out the vote for Motsi Plip in New York 3rd District with early voting open and the special election on February 13th.
	Interesting.
	We have more lawsuits on the horizon, but we're currently engaged in 77 election lawsuits across 23 states, many of which will have major ramifications across the country.
	Day in and day out, we continue to hold Joe Biden and the Democrats feet to the fire for their continued assaults on our freedoms and failures on everything from the border crisis, Bidenomics and skyrocketing crime.
	Myself and my staff are refusing to be distracted by the outside noise, and we remain committed to our mission.
	Rumors to the contrary are simply not true.
	Nothing has changed and there will not be any changes decided on until after South Carolina when we may have our eventual nominee.
	I want to thank you for your outpouring messages of support.
	I am proud of this committee and our work together over the past several cycles.
	I know you all are working diligently in your states alongside state, local and grassroots leaders towards victory this fall.
	I also know that we're not done yet.
	There's a lot of work to be done in the next nine months just to make Joe Biden a one term president.
	And we're just getting started.
	As always, feel free to reach out to me, Mike or any one of my team with any questions or needs you may have.
	Thanks, Rana.
	You're welcome, Rana.
	Just kidding.
	So yeah, it sounds like they are trying to buy time.
	That didn't really mean much.
	Just like, oh yeah, you're just hearing rumors.
	Rumors never have any truth to them.
	That's so not true that I'm totally not stepping down at all.
	Or at least I think what happened is people were a little too excited and the RNC was like...
	People were like, yes, who are we going to replace her with?
	Who are we going to replace her with?
	We're so excited.
	And the RNC was like, oh crap, we didn't actually expect people to be that excited.
	We didn't realize...
	How many people really hate Ronna McDaniel or really don't want her to, not hate her, but really don't want her to be in this position?
	But nobody really wants Ronna to be chairwoman of the RNC. That's why they were so excited to hear that she may be stepping down.
	So I don't know exactly what's going on here.
	Like I said, it does sound like they probably will have her step down.
	We'll probably nominate somebody else but it does sound to me like they're buying time as far as what they're going to do in the near future.
	Now We're good to go.
	You know, even before he announced his run per president, his endorsement meant a lot and it made him look bad if he didn't endorse the winner.
	And this is where Ronna McDaniel failed him a lot.
	This is where the RNC team failed him a lot, led by, of course, Ronna.
	So that's annoying and it makes Trump look bad, makes the MAGA movement look bad.
	But in addition to that, it weakens, therefore, the nationalist movement because it is led by Donald J. Trump.
	But in addition to that, just their spending is ridiculous.
	And like I said, they're not getting any donations that they used to get.
	The only people they really can rely on are probably boomers and older people who don't really realize that they're still donating to the RNC. They're still on some list and they're getting...
	You know, monthly statements on their credit card from the RNC that's taking maybe like $5 a month out or whatever, what have you.
	That's pretty much the only people who are really giving to the RNC still, at least actively.
	But I doubt there are really any young people who aren't thinking to themselves, oh, I'm so excited to give to the RNC. Like, I'm a Republican and I can't wait to give money to Ron McDaniel to screw up another election.
	And just a little refresher, this is kind of how inappropriately they've been spending their money, and this is just a small example because this does not list everything, but they've been getting exposed for the past, I want to say two years, for how poorly they've handled their money.
	This is interesting because it compares the DNC to the RNC with their spending.
	This is Benny Johnson.
	While Republicans were losing midterm elections in 2022, Ronna McDaniel spent $70,000 on flowers, $263,127 on limousines, and over $1 million on, quote, consulting.
	which consulting is the funniest like concept to me because what do you need?
	Like, who are you hiring?
	Like you're just being paid to consult with people.
	What?
	Like you're just a middleman.
	That's all you are.
	You're just a middleman.
	And I don't understand how that, why that's necessary.
	The DNC spent $795 on flowers, a little more reasonable.
	$7,000 on limousines, also way more reasonable.
	And $114,000 on consulting.
	That's pretty low, actually.
	You were donating to the RNC. Rana was buying flowers and riding in limos.
	It's time for Rana to wake up and smell the roses and officially resign.
	Yeah, she also seems to be doing something weird to her face.
	You know, I'm not necessarily opposed to plastic surgery for ugly people because I don't want to have to look at ugly people.
	Many of them exist.
	But, you know, if you're just going to look uglier afterwards, I think John Miller tweeted that out.
	He was like, if you're going to just look uglier afterwards, then, like, what's the point?
	Like, I'm not opposed to it.
	Just, like, look hotter at least.
	But that's not the case for her.
	She just kind of looked uglier, to be honest.
	Like, yeah, please do save us all and, you know, make yourself prettier so I don't have to look at another ugly person.
	Anyway, yeah, so overspending in ridiculous places that we don't need it to be spent in.
	And, you know, Carrie Lake called this out the other day, and she was just explaining how, like, the real future of this country, the real future of the nationalist movement is really grassroots support.
	And she said herself, you know, I get mostly grassroots support, and people say that all the time, what does that even really mean?
	And sure, I guess that's true, but I do think that people just don't trust these organizations anymore, these political, you know, like the RNC, even the DNC, I don't think Democrats really trust.
	I mean, I think really the majority of support is going to be coming from Donors, just your average Americans just...
	And yeah, you need wealthy donors, right?
	People who are going to cough up a lot of money.
	But as far as the nationalist movement goes, we're going to need more rich people like Trump to run.
	That helps, right?
	To already be independently wealthy so you can't be bought.
	And again, that's the key if you don't want to be bought out by Israel.
	But we're also going to need the backing of American citizens.
	And so Carrie Lake kind of pointed that out about how flawed the RNC is and just what a mess the Republican Party is.
	I do understand why the RNC is nearly bankrupt because the grassroots and the small donors, which I actually have mainly small donors, real people, you know, donating 20 bucks, 10 bucks, 50 bucks, they don't want to donate to the RNC. They don't see good leadership.
	They don't see that the RNC is effective anymore.
	And that's one of the reasons that I think it's nearly bankrupt.
	So you could ask a lot of questions about the expenditure.
	Some of it seems to be excessive.
	I don't want to pass judgment until I know more information, but what I do want to do is right away when we find a new leader, I think we need to, as Republicans, jump behind this person.
	Do everything we can, Jack, to support, lift up, raise up, and make this person the most successful RNC chair.
	I hope what happens is we don't end up Infighting for the next two months before we get behind the person.
	Because we're running out of time.
	The clock is ticking.
	We're in the fourth quarter right now, in my opinion.
	And so I hope we find a great person.
	And just as importantly, we all jump behind that person.
	I want to help the RNC raise money so that they can move forward.
	We need them to do work going into this election.
	It's the most important election in the history of this country.
	And that's what I hope.
	And we can also do an audit.
	That's fine.
	I don't think we need to kind of mull over, over and over what maybe Rana did wrong.
	We've got to move forward and get going.
	That doesn't mean we can't audit and make that happen, but we really do need to focus on the here and now and the future for the next eight or nine months.
	Someone said she looked AI and she kind of did there.
	Look, she's right, though, from the standpoint of, like, we really do have to back whoever this next person's going to be.
	I will say, I don't really think that the RNC is going to be helpful with the dissident right as of yet.
	I think they're still going to be backing, to some degree, safe candidates.
	And that's really what's going to make a difference.
	Like, Until we start backing candidates that are actually going to push the envelope, that are actually going to do...
	Look, Anthony Sabatini, one of my favorites, he did not win the nomination, I believe.
	And these are the kinds of people, it's always the best people that don't win the nomination in these...
	And, you know, congressional races and midterm elections like they always you have to pay attention to the moves that the RNC makes during these midterm elections.
	A lot of people don't pay close attention, but you notice they'll always back like the middle of the road candidate and they always use the same argument.
	Well, you know, this person was too conservative or they had to their views were too strict on abortion and we just couldn't win with that.
	And it's like, OK, but then we do it your way.
	And then what's even the point?
	Because we wind up losing in the long run because we don't actually have opposition to the left's degenerate, woke, disgusting, communist agenda.
	How can you fight an agenda that is very strong with weak messaging of, oh, well...
	We just want to make sure that we all get along, but we do want low taxes.
	Well, I guess there are only two genders.
	I mean, you're crazy if you think you could be a man when you're a woman.
	That's not really...
	That's not strong messaging.
	That's not a powerful message.
	We need people like Trump who say, we're going to build an iron dome or whatever.
	He said he wanted to build a dome over the country or something.
	That was amazing.
	He just says things that need to be done.
	We need to build a wall, a big, beautiful wall.
	That was such a perfect message because it was such a simple solution.
	He has these grandiose but simple solutions to things that almost make you think, well, why did nobody think of that?
	Obviously that's the answer.
	But I think people overthink, they overcomplicate things, they don't want to upset other people.
	It's like we just need people who are going to state the obvious that actually isn't so obvious.
	And it's really that simple.
	We don't need people like Ronna McDaniel to be screwing everything up, whispering in Trump's ear, telling him to endorse the wrong people, telling him to endorse candidates that are winnable candidates.
	No, we need candidates who will...
	Maybe at first not necessarily win, but at least shift the Overton window.
	And then eventually we'll start winning once we normalize actual conservative messaging.
	Because conservative messaging has been lost for so long.
	So this is going to be a process.
	And it's not just going to be, oh, we have to back a different RNC chair.
	Although, yeah, that might help a little bit.
	But this is going to be a process to get the Republican Party back on track.
	The RNC has been lost for quite some time.
	Obviously, Rana didn't help under her leadership.
	So it's a pretty interesting time to be conservative because there's a lot of changes happening.
	And the question is, which way, Western man?
	And I think it'll be interesting to see what the party decides to do.
	By and large, I don't consider myself a Republican because I'm far too conservative for that.
	Probably if you're watching the show and you like my content, you probably agree with me on that end.
	So You know, there's not a whole lot of representation for people like us in the party as it stands.
	So anyway, I do want to move on and talk about what's going on with the border as well, because the Republican Party, they are not really pushing for this.
	All they do is they stay in defense mode.
	They just they don't have any real solutions to this problem.
	They're like, oh, let's impeach Mayorkas.
	OK, but that is not being proactive.
	That is being reactive.
	You're just, you know, getting rid of a guy that's a little annoying, if you're even able to do that, right?
	And then as far as this border bill goes, which was an awful bill, they did crush it.
	It's dead now, but...
	The fact that it was even being framed by some members of the party as a border bill is ridiculous because even Chuck Schumer was like, this wasn't meant to be a border bill.
	It was basically the only way to get Israel's aid and Ukraine's aid through.
	So we're going to be talking about that.
	We're not really getting anywhere on that end.
	Before we move on, though, I do want to ask you to please rumble the show.

	John Smith says, here come Anna's hands with the gold bar again.
	She's leaving to be a hand model.
	It sounds like an easy job, so I kind of wish I was.
	Maybe I should do that.
	Maybe should I be a hand model?
	That sounds like a really easy job.
	I kind of want to do that.
	I Hate Mark Everberg says, that chick has dirty nails.
	Anna would never have dirty nails.
	Yeah, duh.
	Yeah, thank you.
	Hawkeye7 says, Anna is gonna be the invisible woman.
	I wish.
	Sometimes I wish.
	I wish.
	Oh, I'm so tired right now.
	Why didn't I make coffee before I started the show?
	I had coffee.
	Oh, I almost died today.
	Did I tell you guys that?
	No, I don't think I did.
	Yeah, so I was going to get a bracelet that I had been wanting for a while.
	I ordered it online and I was going to pick it up.
	And as I was walking through, I was crossing the street in D.C., And, like, you know, it's a crosswalk, but you can't really tell it's a crosswalk unless you're, like, closer up.
	And it was a red light anyway, so the cars couldn't go anywhere, so I was crossing.
	But it's not, like, a formal crosswalk, but it sort of is.
	So I was crossing, and, like, another person was crossing too, so it was very clearly not a time to just, like...
	Keep going.
	I don't know why this happened, but I literally was in the bike lane.
	So I was walking.
	I was almost to the sidewalk, the other side of the street.
	And this motorcycle just comes out of nowhere and just like...
	Really fast.
	Like, I don't know what...
	This person must have been, like, drunk or something.
	I don't know.
	I didn't even, like...
	I was shocked.
	Like, had I walked, like, an inch closer, I would have died.
	And a police officer was, like, standing on the other side, and I walked by.
	He's like, are you okay?
	You almost died.
	And I was like...
	I kind of laughed.
	I was like, yeah, I'm fine.
	Thanks.
	Like, I didn't even, like, know how to process that.
	But I almost died today, so...
	Here I am.
	Clearly alive.
	For better or for worse.
	That was an assassination attempt, says John Smith.
	You know that did go through my head?
	But I felt like that's weird because I'm leaving the industry, sort of, so why would they attempt to assassinate me now?
	You know what I mean?
	Anyway, maybe it's someone from the future who knows I'm going to be doing something crazy awesome and they're like, we got to kill her before she gets there.
	Either way, they lost because I have amazing reflexes and I have very good peripheral vision.
	So I saw it in the corner of my eye and I stopped myself immediately from walking a step further.
	And the person, I just like, I'll never forget the feeling after that where I was like, I was like, God, thank you.
	You just saved my life.
	It was just a God wink, as they say in Christianese.
	It was a God wink moment.
	Not a God wink moment.
	It's not really a God wink, I guess.
	But, I mean, I have nothing other to chalk it up to than God.
	God is real, guys.
	That was the only...
	Explanation I have for not dying today.
	So that was scary.
	The Hells Angels are after Anna, says Ron Green.
	And that's never really happened to me before.
	Not at least that close of a call.
	Because I mean, I was like an inch away from dying.
	Like, had I taken one more step, I would have died.
	So...
	Anna has cat-like reflexes, says Tone Man.
	I kind of do.
	Yeah.
	I mean, I was a...
	I was a ballet dancer.
	And then I was a competitive dancer.
	So that was sort of my sport of choice as a kid.
	I was very into the arts.
	And so I think being a dancer kind of made me have really good reflexes, really good spatial awareness.
	I have two as well.
	So that two as well.
	That was redundant.
	Anna's angel's putting in some work today, says D-Nice.
	I know.
	Emmy 007 says, God has plans for you, Anna.
	Yeah, that was really the thought I had walking away.
	I called my mom and I was like, Mom, you're not going to believe what happened.
	She was like, Holy crap, that's insane.
	Like, please never leave your house again.
	And I'm like, I literally never do leave my house.
	And the one day that I do, the one time I'm like...
	Oh, I want a new bracelet or whatever.
	I went to go pick it up.
	It's really pretty, by the way.
	And I almost die.
	I'm like, this is what I get for leaving the house.
	Back to being a shut-in.
	Back to being a shut-in again.
	Because I'm just not.
	I'm not doing that.
	No.
	Maybe it's the hand modeling.
	That's what it is.
	Maybe that's what I need to do.
	Maybe that's what God's saying.
	Hey, Anna, you're going to be a really important hand model one day, so we have to keep you alive.
	Anyway.
	Anna the Black Cat Perez.
	That's funny.
	Yeah, and I was wearing this outfit, too.
	Sell your social media account, says DD1000. No.
	No, I'm not doing that.
	No, because, like, no.
	It's so personalized to me, like, the followers in it.
	I have a very specific personality, and I feel like people follow for that reason, so, like, I don't think there's gonna be, not to toot my own horn, but I don't think there's gonna be another Anna Perez that will appeal to the same audience, okay?
	Let's be real.
	Anna the Recluse, yes, says AB965. Yeah, sort of am.
	I sort of am.
	It's the schizophrenia, says Copernicus.
	Yeah, sorry that I'm a racist schizophrenic.
	That's why they were trying to kill me.
	That's what it was.
	They were like, that is the most powerful racist schizophrenic I've ever seen.
	We have to kill her.
	She's too powerful.
	I always said this, but if I were a man, I'd be too powerful.
	That's why I had to be a woman.
	Yep.
	I really do believe that.
	I really do believe that.
	Let's see.
	Go with that pretty smile, Anna says Blaster Nation.
	Thank you.
	Neo Spartan says you have to encase it glass right now like that guy from Zoolander.
	What does that mean?
	W Racism says Bullet Bill 22.
	W Schizophrenia.
	No, I don't think I'm schizophrenic in all seriousness.
	I think...
	DDD1000 says, Isabella Riley is probably the closest thing I've seen to Anna.
	Yeah, she's a good friend of mine.
	I like her a lot.
	You know what?
	The people who get hated on the most in this industry are the best people I've ever met.
	Really.
	And if you meet them one-on-one, they're the most genuine people.
	They're the best friends.
	It blows my mind.
	It really is, I think, Christian persecution.
	Christians are just...
	People who are hated on the most tend to be, in public at least, people who are hated on the most from social media are not the people that they want you to believe that they are.
	And I think a lot of people are misunderstood in this industry because the narrative gets twisted about them.
	And I know that because it's happened to me, too.
	And people make judgments about you and it's like, you don't even, people just say the flat out most ridiculous stuff I've ever heard in my life.
	They'll say like, I don't know, it's just, it's a weird industry.
	It's a weird industry.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Watch James O'Keefe's latest video, says T-Box.
	If it's the one I'm thinking of, I have watched that.
	Copernicus says there's no one even close to Anna.
	Let's be real.
	Maybe Fuentes.
	I see that, I suppose.
	Let's see.
	I am one of a kind.
	What can I say, though, to be honest, Copernicus.
	So you got that right.
	Let's see.
	Oh yeah, Freethinker says, Anna already showed us O'Keefe's gay date.
	Oh yeah, that's the one that I did a few days ago where he was like, he had the glasses on and the guy he was talking to didn't really know even what he's talking about.
	We even knew he was.
	It was kind of funny.
	Angels surround Anna, says Hawkeye 7.
	I do believe that is true.
	Anyway...
	Yes, finally I made her laugh since Rethinker26.
	Alright, so let's move on because I've been chit-chatting away.
	You know, when I'm not in it, you know, sometimes, and I'm kind of out of it today, I lose track of time.
	So today we're going to go to...
	Well, right now we're going to go talk about the border, which I told you we were going to get to, because it's really discouraging seeing the Republican Party fail on the one issue that they kind of claim as their own.
	The messaging has been very much on the side of conservatives.
	Trump carried that message in 2016, but the Republican Party post-Trump—not post-Trump, because we're not over Trump, obviously, but meaning while he's not president— Has really failed on this issue.
	And it's this whole border bill thing where a lot of there were Republicans that were supporting this, you know, and even Chuck Schumer admitted that this border bill didn't even have to do with the border.
	OK, it was just a way of getting more money to Ukraine and Israel.
	And they were able to just strike a deal with Republicans to get them to vote on it.
	Of course, the bill is dead now, to be fair.
	But It's ridiculous that we even have to frame it this way.
	This is why we need single issue spending bills.
	But anyway, here's what Chuck said.
	This is literally him proving to us that this never had anything to do with the border at all, or very little.
	I'm not going to be long.
	So first, Republicans said they would only do Ukraine and Israel humanitarian aid with border.
	Then they said they wouldn't do it, they would not do it with border.
	Well, we're going to give them both options.
	We'll take either one.
	We just hope they can come to yes on something.
	The bottom line is very simple.
	We knew about a week ago when Trump mixed in and said, you know, wanted to be political and said he'd prefer chaos at the border because he thinks it helps him electorally.
	We knew that we might have to have a second option, so I then called the White House and told my caucus that if, unfortunately, the big supplemental bill failed, We would do everything but border, and that's what the bill, we're posting it right now, so everyone can see it.
	That's what the bill we're doing does.
	It has everything that we had in the original supplemental negotiations, but without border, although we do have the fentanyl issue, and that's not a border issue, but that is very, very important.
	And so, we just hope they can come to yes, and we will have the second vote if the first vote fails.
	I still hope that they would rethink the first vote, Donald Trump wants chaos.
	Donald Trump does not want success at the border.
	He wants chaos, and if he became president, I doubt he'd ever solve it, as Mitch McConnell said.
	Okay, shut up, faggot.
	We've heard enough.
	We know what you're saying.
	Okay, yeah, well, we really only wanted funding for Israel and Ukraine.
	Yeah, we know you hate this country.
	We know you're America last.
	And sadly, so are many Republicans, which is exactly what Senator Kennedy pointed out when he went on Fox News.
	I want to play that for you, too.
	So, Senator, I don't know if you got a chance to hear from Chief Owens, who said that he was disappointed that this would have helped us to make the country safer, would have cut down on the number of single adult males entering the country that we've lost track of, not to mention these gang members as well.
	So tell us what your take is this afternoon as this thing has imploded.
	Well, for several days, Martha, The border bill has been dead.
	It's been as dead as Woodrow Wilson.
	And now it's official.
	We just finished voting.
	There will be some who will want to continue to talk about this bill.
	It's their right, but I think they'll just be grooming a corpse.
	How we got here is no mystery.
	Some of my Democratic colleagues say Republicans welched on a deal.
	There was no deal to welch on.
	As part of the supplemental bill, we asked to have some border provisions explored that might slow President Biden's open border down.
	Leader McConnell appointed James Lankford to do that.
	He did the best he could negotiating with people who support an open border.
	He brought the product back to us in the Republican conference in the Senate.
	And we said, James, we appreciate your hard work, but this is not sufficient.
	And that's what happened.
	Yeah.
	He's right.
	They weren't able to get a good deal.
	It wasn't really ever about the border.
	It was just, let's make a quick deal with Republicans so that we can keep giving more money to Zelensky and gay Netanyahu.
	Well, really, it's mostly gay Zelensky, but Netanyahu's just trying to blow up Gaza, so it's like, who even cares at this point?
	I mean...
	They hate us.
	They just hate us.
	Luckily, they did, like I said, kill this bill, but it's just ridiculous how many Republicans were even going to support this to begin with.
	Kennedy wasn't the only one to call that out.
	Obviously, Mike Lee did too, so we're going to be playing a clip of that.
	At this point, it's so obvious that they don't want to actually fix anything.
	Even the people who say they want to fix it, They're just using it as an opportunity to get in front of the camera and get on their soapbox and talk about how bad the Uniparty is.
	Okay, well if it's so bad, can we fix it?
	Can we finally have single issue spending bills now?
	Does it really have to be all about foreign aid?
	Oh yeah, it does because really nobody is trying to put America first or virtually no one.
	So here's Mike Lee talking about that.
	We know that Joe Biden created this border crisis.
	That's why we have this humanitarian disaster unfolding on our southern border.
	It is not for want of adequate legislative authority that this happened.
	It is because Joe Biden has defiantly, willfully refused To enforce the border.
	Now, I know that he and all of his little friends in both parties wanted this to be a namaste moment and everybody would just bow and hug and support their bill, thinking that we wouldn't read it.
	But we read it, Laura, and what we found was quite discouraging.
	What we found was consistent with the concerns we had over time because this was negotiated over a three or four month period.
	For reasons I can't fathom, People negotiating for us as Senate Republicans refused to share details with us of the legislation.
	We couldn't see text.
	We didn't see text.
	Why did they do that?
	Until Monday night when it was released through the media.
	Why did they do that, Senator?
	Tell me why.
	Was that good faith?
	No, you know why.
	Was it good faith?
	It was not good faith because the firm, the law firm of Schumer and McConnell, has learned over time that if it can negotiate a bill in secret and keep the peasants, by that I mean other senators, from seeing it until the last possible minute, they can pass it.
	Especially if they move it forward just days or even hours before some artificially contrived deadline that they themselves have arranged.
	But sometimes they can trick members into passing it, even though they haven't had adequate time to read it, even though it seemed no time before the committee, even though there's been no time to offer much less vote on amendments.
	It's worked for them over and over and over again.
	But you know what, Laura?
	They've played this note so many times.
	That it's not working anymore.
	And this is glorious.
	This is a wonderful thing.
	Because the American people and those they've elected are smarter than this.
	And they know that when it comes to something as essential as border security, we're not going to put up with this.
	Well, good, because we put up for it already for way too long, and it's getting really sickening watching the Republican just completely lose over and over and over again.
	They think this is a win by rejecting this bill, and I guess it is a small win, but you should be a lot further along on this issue than you are, Republicans.
	You know, you should have kind of flipped the tables already by now, or turned the tables by now, and made it so that the Democrats...
	Or on defense.
	Because for so long, we've just been reacting to whatever Democrats do, especially when it comes to the border.
	You know, we're just constantly begging for pocket change.
	We're constantly just begging for it to send a few less billion dollars to Israel, a few less billion dollars to Ukraine.
	And it's just so exhausting.
	I mean, it's all just so tiresome.
	It's the same crap over and over and over again.
	And it's just like, these people hate this country.
	And I'm beginning to think, I wonder if people speaking out against it even care about this country.
	Because there's enough of them to actually make a change, and they don't.
	I mean, just the Uniparty really has a vice grip on...
	On foreign aid.
	And they're not letting go.
	And we have to figure out a way to force them to let go.
	Because it's getting really sickening watching this country fall apart.
	Watching our sovereignty fall apart.
	While Zelensky, faggot Zelensky, and Netanyahu just get richer and continue to bomb everything.
	So, anyway.
	RIP America, because we have no opposition to the Uniparty right now.
	Literally none.
	No progress on the border, other than what Greg Abbott's doing, which isn't enough, to be honest, and it just simply won't be, even if he's doing all that he can.
	It's not enough to fix the problem, so...
	RIP America.
	All right, so I want to move on because I have one last clip to show you.
	This was just insane.
	I mean, just another example of, like, why...
	Everything's a joke.
	Nikki Freed couldn't even tell you what...
	She didn't know if a biological male can give birth because she's not a doctor.
	I mean, you can't make this up.
	But anyway, before we move on, I do want to, of course, tell you about...

	I want to show you this last clip of Nikki Freed as promised.
	Here it is.
	And then, I mean, one of the other major issues that the legislature has been dealing with is the issue of transgenderism and LGBTQ rights.
	Would you say that a transgender woman could give birth or get an abortion?
	I am not a doctor.
	Okay.
	And I think that this amendment speaks for itself.
	It is very clear on the language.
	Again, it goes back to medical professionals, not politicians, not elected officials, telling people what to do with their bodies and getting it interfering with medical decisions.
	Thank you.
	I'm just so done with these idiots.
	Like...
	Would we just be better without them?
	Like, honestly, at this point, it's just a joke.
	It's just a joke.
	And then the best people that should be in positions like that, they don't win.
	They don't want the power.
	And obviously it's a people-pleasing woman, and they always screw up everything in government.
	So, anyway, I do have to get going.
	It is already 10.01.
	Someone says, bye Anna, stay in your apartment where it's safe.
	AB 1965.
	Yeah.
	No, I agree.
	I'm a big fan of not leaving my apartment.
	But yeah.
	What a bunch of lies, says Hazel Kitty, 57.
	Yep, yep, yep.
	Anyway, God made two genders, two only, says Debra.
	Yeah, and that's really the simple answer here.
	I hate how there are Republicans who actually try and, like, appease the tranny community, and they're like, well, you know, I don't see, like, the whole Blair White crowd.
	Like, what are you even doing?
	I think Alex Jones really disappointed me when he started, like, supporting Blair White and that whole thing.
	That was annoying.
	But anyway, D9 says, Anna, you're Catwoman.
	If you want to go out, no fear.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, but I'm an indoor cat, so I stay inside.
	No, I'm just kidding.
	I mean, I'm not actually, like, that bad.
	I mean, some days I am.
	But, like, I learned my lesson.
	This is what happens when you go outside, and I'm never leaving again.
	I'm just going to become a hand model.
	Thank you, beautiful Anna, says Dan the Drummer.
	You're welcome.
	Alright, so now it's 10.03.
	I'm going to shut up now and go because I'm tired and I'm starving too, but it's warmer inside, says David Stahl.
	Yep.
	Alright, so I'm also not going to be able to fall asleep.
	I need to take some magnesium breakthrough tonight because I drink way too much coffee today.
	I have a headache and you know what it is?
	I'm realizing now I didn't really drink that much water.
	That's what it is.
	And I drink a lot of coffee on a daily basis, but I had more than usual today.
	And I didn't drink a lot of water.
	I had a really good latte, though, I'll tell you that much, when I went to go get my bracelet.
	Had a really good latte.
	And I usually just get, like, plain black coffee, but the latte was good.
	I wish I had more of it right now.
	Anyway, not important.
	Have a great night, guys, and I will see you back here tomorrow for another episode of Wrong Think Primetime and also, of course, on my show Wrong Think at 3 p.m.
	See you then.
