Welcome to the podcast.
It is Stu.
Glenn is here today talking about a lot of stuff, including Bernie Sanders praising the incredible economic miracle of Chinese capitalism.
I don't think he meant to do that, but he pretty much did it.
We talk about the bizarre shirt Glenn was wearing today.
And I know this is a visual thing, but man, I don't even know how to explain it.
You just have to hear it.
We also have the updates on the debates.
Today is the last day for Democrats to get into the next round of debates.
We'll tell you who's going to make it, who's not.
And we'll get into that as well.
Glenn goes into modern monetary theory.
This is the idea that you can just kind of print your way out of anything.
And we go into the details on how bad that actually would be for our society.
And Ilan Omar is in the news.
Her relationship issues are significant.
And it's not always just about the actual relationships in her personal life.
It's usually a lot deeper than that.
We'll get into that as well.

Here's the podcast.
You're listening to
the best of the Glenbeck program.
Now you tell me what's wrong.
Here's Bernie Sanders, audio of Bernie Sanders yesterday trying to praise communist China.
But what we have to say about China in fairness to China and its leadership is if I'm not mistaken, they have made more progress in addressing extreme poverty than any country in the history of civilization.
Okay.
Bernie,
I think you...
I do not think those words mean what you think it means.
What he didn't talk about was that it is the free market principle that China started to enact that they got from us.
It wasn't communism.
Never before in history have so many people escaped poverty in such a short time in the past decades in China.
Okay,
according to the official World Bank figures, the percentage of extremely poor people in China in 1981 was 88.3%.
By 2015, only 0.7% of the Chinese population was living in extreme poverty.
Now, wait a minute.
Poor people in China fell from 878 million people to less than 10 million people since 1981.
Now, what happened?
What happened?
Well, under Mao, the state had, you know, an omnipotent grip over China's economy.
What happened over the last few decades can be summed up in a couple of sentences.
China embraced the tenets of a free market economic system.
It introduced private ownership, gradually reduced the influence of the once all-powerful state over the Chinese economy.
Now,
they are still communists
and is still state-controlled much of it.
But you also have these independent companies, these companies that are not collapsing.
These companies that are run by the state are collapsing, as we pointed out earlier this week.
China had to print
$50 trillion.
$50 trillion.
Half of that went right to the state-owned companies that are dying.
The state still plays a major role,
but it is its free market capitalism
after the death of Mao
and the death of communism.
Let me give you this story, Bernie.
Here's another story for you.
Tell me if this sounds like communism or a celebration of capitalism.
Quoting the story,
it was no surprise that the crowds at China's first Costco location would be big,
but the company wasn't prepared for this.
The photos of the opening of the Shanghai location of Costco
painted a clear picture of the reports coming out of China, which said that a deluge of shoppers clogged up parts of the store and built up traffic on roads right outside of Costco, resulting in a three-hour wait for a parking space.
Shoppers crowded the meat department, which included the Costco rotisserie chicken and the food court.
Elbows and arms were thrown in every direction as customers attempted to pick up various items.
The sheer amount of people forced
the store to shut down hours early.
And a text message to members reportedly read, in part, to provide you with better shopping experience, Costco will suspend business in the afternoon.
Please don't come.
Now,
why were they there?
Well, the deep discounts
that a Costco membership gives you.
this is something spectacular in China
the usual items offered to first-time customers at the Shanghai location had discounts also on other luxury items the South China Morning Post reported that you could get Prada tote bags and MCM leather backpacks there is also reportedly an Hermes super popular Birkin bag available we don't know the prices of it even if you did manage to get a big ticket item or even something smaller on a smaller scale, such as food, checkout was a nightmare.
If you managed to wait the three-hour wait to get a parking space,
when you got the parking space, you were warned that it could take two hours just to check out.
All in all, Costco managed to stay open until 1:40 p.m.
Five hours after it first opened.
Now,
it's a Costco.
We have them everywhere.
They're great,
but are you waiting five hours to buy something at Costco?
No.
No.
So is it communism, Bernie, that has everybody excited and is lifting people out of poverty?
And if it's communism, how come it didn't work
under Mao?
What changed?
Oh, these people are crazy.
Truly, truly crazy.
You know, there are times, there are a few days that I can recall.
In every broadcaster's life, there's a few days where you're like, wow, really?
I mean, things happen that are so crazy, you can't believe you have to tell the American people about them.
Let me give you one.
This week,
while listening to Barack Obama talk about the dangers of a rising ocean due to climate change,
You're listening to maybe his clips or you're lucky enough to be able to get online and listen to his speech.
While he's giving that speech,
it's announced that he bought a $14 million dollar beachfront home on Martha's Vineyard.
Now, I don't know if you have an awful lot of credibility if you are giving a speech about how all of our beaches are going to go away and there's flooding coming and all of the islands will be gone, and that day you're buying a $14 million million beachfront home.
That's one of those days that you're like, I can't believe I'm, I can't believe I have to say this.
I can't believe there are some people out there who are like, well, no, wait a minute.
How about this one?
A day in the life of a broadcaster where you have to say, hey, by the way,
I'm just going to let you know that, yeah, Hillary Clinton kept a private email server with classified government documents in a closet in her bathroom for more than five years.
She wipes all the hard drives while under investigation.
And this week it also looks like the FBI knew about this huge stack of really, really vital documents.
And they didn't look through any of them.
That's when you look back and you go like, wow.
Bernie Sanders praising China,
talking about how they're lifting people
out of poverty while they are building concentration camps.
Really, dude, are you serious?
Today is truly one of those days.
This week we've been focused on key economic issues.
Hour two all week, we've been explaining what is happening, what is coming, using common language, not talking, trying not to talk over people's heads, trying to make everything understandable because no one on TV will.
Monday, we looked at the economic system, the situation in which we find ourselves, the long daisy chain of crazy progressive ideas that have been going on for 100 years.
Who is wrecking the economy?
Well, the answer was all of us.
We looked at the trade war with China.
We reviewed the fact that China has created more than $50 trillion
in off-balance sheet currency, using more than half of that to buy up U.S.
and Western nation equities.
In other words, they've taken about $15 trillion and put it into our stock market.
You want to talk about a death spiral?
Yesterday, we took a deep dive in recessions.
We told you how government intervention to prevent or reverse
recessions creates distortions in the economy.
Today,
wow, we're going to take a look at a leading proposal for financial policies that is happening right now in Washington.
And when you hear it, it's one of those days for a broadcaster where I can't believe I actually have to explain to the nation why just unlimited printing of money with nothing to back it up is a bad idea.
Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, The Squad,
Bob Francis O'Rourke, all of them are now saying we can do that.
And they're calling it a modern monetary theory.
It's not a theory.
And I'll explain at the top of hour number two, the next hour on this broadcast.
You don't want to miss it.
But I want to go to...
I want to go to a story where you are seeing them, this one from the Washington Post today, where you are seeing these candidates now say, we can print unlimited numbers of cash because we want to promise everybody certain things.
And as I was reading this story in the Washington Post today, I thought, hmm, I've seen someplace else that guaranteed those other things.
And I looked at one of the producers and I said, could you print the Soviet Constitution out for me?
Because I think that's where it was.
Wait until I read the Soviet Constitution to you or parts of it.
Even if you've read it in the past, you won't believe how close the Democrats are to quoting the Soviet Constitution.
That's how far we've come.
All right, I want to talk to you.
Let me start with Bernie Sanders again.
Now, this is a story from the Washington Post.
Washington Post, 2020 Democrats have embraced seemingly every big left-wing economic idea except this one.
I'll explain.
Bernie Sanders says every American should be concerned about the rising federal deficit.
Do you think he means that?
Because I don't.
I don't think he means that at all.
Elizabeth Warren has detailed how she would raise enough noon to tax revenue to pay for her proposals for universal child
and free college for everyone.
Do you think she cares about the deficit?
More than Bernie Sanders,
but not enough to stop her from these crazy proposals.
Long shot candidate Andrew Yang, who perhaps is best known for the memes around his candidacy, has called for a broad-based consumption tax to finance his signature issue of universal basic income.
In a Democratic presidential primary, says the Washington Post, where candidates have championed many ideas once relegated to the far left of American politics,
a federal jobs guarantee, forgiveness of student debt, reparations for the descendants of slaves, there is one left-wing economic position that no one has espoused, and that is the idea of modern monetary theory.
Okay,
that's not true, Washington Post.
It argues that the U.S.
government can never go bankrupt and therefore does not need to raise tax revenue to fund new spending initiatives.
MMT supporters say it's a mistake to push for lower deficits because that risks contracting spending and as a result, slowing economic growth.
So, what they want to do is
they want to make sure that
you never have a recession.
You never have a problem with anything
like losing your job because the government will just keep things going.
Now, I want to go through some of their proposals.
And next hour, I'm going to show you where they are quoting
the modern monetary theory.
So the Washington Post doesn't know its ass from its elbow on this because I can find the quote in one Google search.
Google hasn't trapped us out of that information yet.
So
they are proposing this, but I want to show you what they're proposing it for.
And then
I think we should compare it to the Soviet Union.
Now, let me just give you
a universal truth.
It's not a theory.
It's truth.
We've talked about Kondrakiev.
I think that's how you pronounce his name.
He was Stalin's economic advisor.
And Stalin said, hey, which is better?
Capitalism or communism?
Now, I know what to say to Stalin.
Oh, communism, sir.
He thought Stalin was looking for an honest answer.
So he goes back, he takes several months, and he comes up with what's called now the Kondrakyev wave, which is there is a spring where green shoots, new ideas sprout up, and then they start to create this great economy.
And then we get into summer where everybody thinks it can never end.
And then fall comes and everybody starts saying, wait, we got to bail everybody out.
He said, but capitalism doesn't.
The Soviet Union bails everybody out.
And so they let the failures fester.
And eventually it sucks everything
down where you just have to realize fall and winter are part of the cycle which will lead to spring all that all that stuff

This week, we've been talking about economics and what is happening in our country.
On a Monday we we looked at our economic system and situation
and
examined the long daisy chain of just stupid policy decisions that go against logic dating over a hundred years, both Republicans and Democrats.
Then the next day, the trade war with China.
China has created more than $50 trillion,
just printed $50 trillion.
So you know, all the money in the world from every country, all the currency just piled up is $60 trillion.
China just printed 50.
We talked to you about the importance of America and how the rest of the world is truly depending on us.
We looked at recessions yesterday.
Today, I want to talk to you about how politicians are now saying saying we're going to pay for everything.
Because they're proposing all kinds of stuff.
Free universal health care.
Got it.
Free unlimited abortions.
Got it.
Free college.
Got it.
Guaranteed jobs for all.
The new Green Deal.
Free phones.
Free Internet.
Free cars.
Free housing.
Everything.
$70 trillion.
in brand new government spending over the next 10 years.
Brand new.
So that's not counting all the spending we're doing on top
now how are we going to pay for it well there's this new theory and it's wonderful because it's very modern and you know it's modern when it uses the word mart modern the modern monetary theory it's mm t
here's what it says
governments never need to worry about taxes they never need to worry about budgets and they never need to worry about deficits because governments can print as much money as it ever needs to spend
to ensure full employment, zero budget shortfalls, unlimited spending capacity against any need, want, or desire.
If the government says, you know what, we should have that, they can print the money.
Now, does this sound logical to you in any way, shape, or form?
You need to know about MMT because it represents the newest, brightest thinking among the liberal intellectual elites and academics.
It was first proposed by an economic guru, Warren Mosler, in the mid-1990s.
It is now fully embraced by the left.
And you have some candidates talking about it on
the campaign trail.
But one of the leading guys who
an economist at Bard College, said,
It's not easy to move people overnight.
It's very difficult to communicate these ideas in a way people can understand.
But what's more important is that the conversation has profoundly shifted.
We're now talking about big, bold policies that everyone used to say were pie in the sky.
Does that sound like Elizabeth Warren?
We're talking about something big and bold.
And what they're talking about is abandoning everything the world has learned about economics and trying this new theory.
Now,
you know what's crazy about this new theory?
Is why hasn't anyone ever thought of it before?
I mean, it seems so simple.
If the government wants to buy something, don't raise taxes, just print more money.
Doesn't that seem great?
This theory of finance is so new.
As we speak, MMT is being modeled and taught at Harvard, Boston College, USC, and MIT.
Traditional models of government financing
place the power of the purse in the hands of the people because the government has to tax
and it taxes to get its income.
So it takes your income and you have the control knob on government spending because
you can vote them out of office.
You can say, no, we're not doing this.
Now, I'd like to point out that we haven't been very good at regulating, which is probably why they're now saying, we can spend anything.
MMT
reframes the way in which governments participate in economies.
It completely divorces government budgets and spending from the private economy.
So rather than taxing or borrowing from the population for its income, the government has an unlimited budget, and it can spend that unlimited budget in its own discretion by just printing new money anytime government leaders determine there's a new need for spending.
And there you have it.
MMT, completely new, a modern way for governments to have unlimited budgets so we can have whatever we want and never pay for it.
Oh man, am I reminded of the Kipling poem, Gods of the Copybook Headings, and we had plenty of money, but nothing our money could buy.
I find this
astounding in its stupidity.
So let's look at modern monetary theory because it is riddled with logical fallacies and it completely fails even just
a quick glance and examination.
So let's start here.
There's nothing modern about modern monetary theory.
Using the word modern to describe it simply resurrects and masks the classic con.
How to give a government spending power outside of the will of the people.
It's done by generating accounting units.
Now this is really important.
What is an accounting unit?
An accounting unit is money, currency, currency.
You give that accounting unit value by legal declaration.
It's worth something.
That's fiat.
And this is, it can only really be maintained by a monopoly through the use of force.
There are literally dozens of historical examples of governments using their self-granted authority to print fiat currency to pay their bills.
For example, I want you to know all of these have met with financial disaster, but here are a few of the most noteworthy.
The very first paper fiat currency in the world was created by the Tang Dynasty in China.
It was during the 17th century AD.
Merchants were
ordered under penalty of death that they had to accept this new modern currency in trade for goods and services.
By 1354, the currency had reached a state of hyperinflation, such as Marco Polo was paid for a single suit of armor from a local lord with 18 chests filled with valueless paper Chinese currency.
In the 18th century, France, the Duke of Orleans, and Scottish economist John Law
founded the Banque de General,
and they issued paper currency to pay off more than $3 billion in government
debt after the death of Louis XIV.
Within five years, inflation had reached 23%
per month and then 55%
per month.
Eventually, the hyperinflation had bankrupt the entire country and it led to the French Revolution.
But don't worry about that.
Following World War I, Weimar Germany faced billions in war reparation payments while simultaneously trying to rebuild its own infrastructure.
They didn't have the money.
Facing the same default versus inflate dilemma, they thought, you know what?
We can issue fiat currency.
Germany chose to just print paper currency to repay its debts.
The result was 1 million percent hyperinflation.
The government was
printing $5 trillion mark notes within two years.
A dozen eggs in Germany cost 800 billion marks.
The resulting economic crash and depression led to the success of the National Socialist Party, because once you have a crash, you have the opportunity to go to socialism because socialism promises to pay for everything.
And in that socialist party was a crazy man called Adolf Hitler.
The other examples, just to state a few, the Confederate States of America, World War II France, Soviet Russia, Eva Perron's Argentina, Communist Vietnam, modern-day Greece, Zimbabwe, Venezuela, do we need to go on?
Literally, every time the printing press has been used as a means for government to pay for expenses, the result has been hyperinflation and eventually a currency default and total financial collapse.
There are zero, let me count them again.
Zero, zero historic examples of governments using fiat currency for deficit financing where the fiat currency doesn't end up valued again
at zero.

Why my husband was sleeping with a harlot from Minnesota
Why I just never seen anything like it.
My husband was being paid lots of money.
I don't know if it's for his performance because he is rather robust in bed.
But he professed his love
for Elon O'Marr.
That story and what's behind it in one minute.
Elon O'Marr.
All right.
So divorce papers have now been
filed in Washington, D.C., and the wife and mom says her political consultant husband left her for Representative Elon Omar.
She's a doctor.
She says her cheating spouse, Tim Minette, told her in April,
I'm having an affair with a Somali-born U.S.
representative.
I'm not going to tell you who, but she's Somali-born.
She's a U.S.
representative.
She's from Minnesota, and you probably can't figure it out.
But
I love her.
I love her.
So
he told her, and then he ditched her.
What did you say, Stu?
I like the character.
I've never heard the person speak, and I kind of like the way you've made him.
sound.
I'm sure that's how he sounds.
Why, though?
There's no real reason.
He sounds like the guy who's saying Elon O'Marr in the song, which I don't know if that's
coincidental.
I'm in love with Ilan Omar.
Yeah, okay, I like it.
So, anyway, so she's a physician.
She's 55.
He's 38.
That has nothing to do with it.
No, it has nothing to do with it.
55, I always wanted to, when I was a teenager, I said, I want to be married to a 55-year-old woman.
So it's a dream come true, but
has nothing to do with that.
So they have a 13-year-old son together,
and
he works as a left-wing Democratic supporter.
He works now for Omar.
Oh, yeah, I'm working for it.
He works for Omar.
And he also, coincidentally, worked for Keith Ellison,
which is
what a coincidence.
You know?
Seriously.
So
those are, you know, socialists run in packs and they pool the same resources.
And if you're allegedly stealing money or allegedly doing something,
you know, on the side.
I don't know what you're talking about.
I just love her.
You have to get creative and you have to make make connections.
Without Chaka Barti, Sank
from the, what's its face?
The
Young Turks.
The Young Turks.
The genocidal people that killed 1.8 million innocent citizens.
Which I would have named after that.
The organization named after that.
Yeah.
Okay.
Got it.
Without Chakabarti, Sank wouldn't have been able to co-found Justice Democrats.
And without those two, AOC's boyfriend would have lost out on thousands.
Wait a minute.
Now, there are two socialists that I've been keeping my eye on.
You know, one of them is a squad member, Elon Omar, and the other one is the former Congressman turned
Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison.
It's kind of creepy,
the number of things they share,
including, oh, yeah, including Omar's new squeeze.
Well, I just don't know why you keep referring.
He is a squeeze, though, isn't he?
They've both represented the same district.
They both had tax problems.
They both had campaign finance problems.
I know it's shocking that all these socialists are having tax problems and campaign finance violations because they hate that stuff.
We've covered Omar's tax and campaign finance problems at length, but it's curious how her predecessor, Keith Ellison, was busted for exactly the same problems.
Well, I mean, Keith Ellison didn't marry his brother
that we know of.
Anyway, when Ellison was state representative, he was busted for having $25,000 in unpaid taxes.
Omar got nailed for filing joint taxes with a man that wasn't her husband, her brother.
Ellison just didn't pay any.
Omar was caught using campaign funds for personal use, but several years earlier, the Attorney General now of Minnesota, the same state now that Elon Omar ran in, sued Ellison twice for campaign finance violations.
They each apparently have the same love in their life.
They love cheating the IRS.
They love bending campaign finance laws.
And they're both in love with the same man,
Tim Minette.
Elon Omar.
Last week, the
Daily Mail released the video
of Omar, actually a couple of weeks ago, exiting the restaurant in California with Tim Minette.
And they were talking about how they were, you know, oh, they were snuggling and they were rubbing noses like Eskimos.
Cultural appropriation.
They were holding hands.
They were acting like a couple.
And it doesn't matter.
I don't care about any of this.
I don't care.
If they want to, you know, they want to romp like little bunnies.
Let them.
I don't care.
What I do care
is
the smoke
is covering what I think is the real fire, and it isn't the fire love.
My net has a work history that shows he's a current partner at a progressive strategies company called East Street Group.
Now, what do they do?
Well, I don't know.
If you go and look up Progressive Strategies and E Street Group, you're going to come to a website that has a single page that tells you nothing.
It doesn't even have a contact.
There's no way it doesn't have an email address or a phone number, nothing.
It just says accepting new clients by referral only.
So in other words, you got to know a guy, because I know a guy.
You know a guy?
I know a guy.
He can put you in touch with these guys, okay?
So I don't think he's worried too much about advertising you know, for new clients because he has hit the mother load with Alan Omar.
Since Alan's already been dinged for campaign finance violations, we decided to check out the FEC records to find out if there was any unusual activity between Omar and Minette.
Well, Omar's campaign has dished out over a quarter of a million dollars over the past 12 months to her new alleged boyfriend.
Right.
I mean, you think I like chicks from Somalia?
No, she's got cash.
Uh-huh.
Now, here's the weird thing.
I mean, if that wasn't weird enough.
He
gets paid in multiple five-figure payments every single month.
If you look at February of this last year, $12,000, they wrote a check to him on the 7th, $15,000 on the 19th, 24,000 on the 21st,
and the payments include everything from absolutely not vague at all descriptions of consulting to travel expenses.
$24,000.
Where are you going?
The moon?
Now,
you know, maybe my internal clock is a little messed up, but isn't the 2018 election over?
what should what could she possibly be getting from this guy you don't want to know
what could she possibly be getting from this guy where she's writing two hundred and fifty thousand dollar checks how's that possible
now this year elon omar raised about 1.4 million
That means out of everything that she has raised, she's given him a quarter of everything.
Usually, you know, you'll get a bonus or you'll get paid a percentage, but it's not 25%.
I could see giving him, you know, that kind of money if, you know, he helped raise $10 million.
But 1.4, the math doesn't end up, it doesn't add up.
And this kind of spending is unusual for congressmen, especially freshman congressmen.
If you look at Dan Crenshaw, his FEC filings, he hasn't spent more than $1,600 for a single payment the entire year.
There is one entry for fundraising consulting.
He wrote a check for $130.
$130.
Omar spent a quarter of a million to one guy.
I'm going to go out on a limb and say
something's weird.
I mean, that's a lot of exotic oils or I don't know.
I'm just saying
quarter of a million dollars.
Now, before Minette met Omar, he was employed by Keith Ellison.
This is the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee labeling Minot as Ellison's main point of contact and his national finance director.
Now, it's really weird that Minot, when you look at his resume, doesn't reference Ellison at all.
You look at his LinkedIn page.
Nope,
Keith Ellison.
No, I have no idea.
Hmm?
What?
He was also, while he was the campaign finance director for Ellison, he was also the head of his own company, the Minette Group.
And like Elon Omar, Ellison pays this guy a lot.
Tim Minette was Ellison's third highest paid expenditure over the past two years, $174,000 in 2018.
This seems like
a racket.
His FEC filings look identical to Elon Omar's, $9,000 payments every month going all the way back to 2015.
In 2014, Ellison paid Minot $92,000, and this was during the same period when Minette was
working on Ellison's staff.
So is there a racket going on here with fundraising consulting?
Is this big business?
And if it is a racket, what's going on?
There's a lot of money that is changing hands.
And this money they've tried to hide.
This money they put in these,
you know,
what do you call them, Stu, those front, you know, the packs.
The money came from a pack.
So you give your money and you're like, I want to give Elon O'Mar money.
And then you're like, I want to give her even more, but the law won't let me, so I'm going to give it to a pack.
That pack,
strangely, strangely, is the one that is paying his salary.
He works directly for the Congresswoman.
How's that working?
Something is wrong with Elon Omar.
Something is wrong with Keith Ellison.
And Tim might not.
I'm sorry.
I mean, he might be okay in bed.
I don't know.
But that's not what's causing this love affair.
There's something deeper.
Oh,
deeper, deeper.
Well, we will go there.
Deeper into their love affair to find out what's going on.

Are you interested in hearing the new update to the Biden GAF montage, which continues
at a rate even faster than you and I?
This is a and that is saying something because my waistline is expanding like crazy.
Do we have enough time for this, or should we just play a short clip here?
Can we get a ruling from the time?
All right, let's do the Biden-GAF montage here.
Here we go.
And the other thing we should do is we should challenge these students.
We should challenge students in these schools to have advanced placement programs in these schools.
We have this notion that somehow if you're poor, you cannot do it.
Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids.
Wealthy kids.
Black kids.
I really mean it, but think how we think about it.
We choose unity over division.
We choose science over fiction.
What else?
We choose truth over facts.
And so, folks,
if you're interested, join me.
I could use the helm because we must,
must defeat this president to change the trajectory of this country.
When the kids from Parkland marched up to, and I
met with them, and then they went off up on the hill when I was vice president.
They went off the hill to go into those neighborhoods.
All those congressmen were like, no, I'm not here.
I'm not here.
Just like in my generation, when I got out of school, that
when Bobby Kennedy and Dr.
King had been assassinated in the 70s,
when I got engaged, my long friend-time friend, and she is a friend, she's been my friend in and out of public life.
There were 40 kids shot in Kent State on the beautiful lawn.
Oh, it's a lot.
The National Guard.
We should set up a system, which I propose, which I will if I'm elected president, that allows the folks at HH,
the folks at Health and
the Health Department
the United States, HHS, right?
Huh?
That's the latest.
This is there.
We're adding like two of these a day.
Yeah.
It's crazy.
Yeah.
All of those, by the way, are just from the last few weeks on the campaign trail.
Yeah, we make sure to not include the old school stuff that you know so well.
It's getting to the point, though, where I think, you know, Biden
has always been sort of a fun gaffe machine.
And some of these just are starting to get sad.
Like,
they're making you feel like you're not.
I never said this about with his gaffe machine.
I just always thought he's just unhinged.
