too much, they would be embarrassed. It's like, okay, you know, I can't say that in public. But Jamie Raskin, nothing will stop him from any lie in public. I guess he went on MSNBC yesterday and he claimed that Trump fired the director of the FAA and that's what caused the American Airlines collision in DC. Can you believe they even tried to get away with that?

So it turns out that the FAA director was not even fired by Trump but did resign, but was not fired. And there doesn't seem to be any connection between any of that and why the American Airlines collision happened. But just think about that from an ignorant Democrat viewer of MSNBC, because you'd have to be pretty dumb to be watching MSNBC and think you're seeing news. So you're already filtered to be dumb. And then this allegedly credible guy comes on and he tells you, yeah, the reason for the accident was Trump fired the only guy who could have prevented it. It's sort of a dumb lie. But the MSNBC audience is dumb enough to say, huh, huh, I guess Trump keeps firing people and the planes are going to fall out of the air. Yeah, that's not happening.

So speaking of lying Democrats, the Washington Examiner has a scoop, an exclusive. And that apparently the Democrats put up billboards in some of the areas where the Republican representatives were weak, you know, the places that they want to win and get a Democrat in there. And the billboards said that the Republicans want to cut Medicaid and use the money to give tax breaks to Elon Musk. So they put that on six different billboards in six different locations. And it looks like they're being threatened by the Republicans to take that down because it's a defamation. So they've already sent a cease and desist letter. So I don't know how that works. So correct me if I'm wrong. Politicians are allowed to lie and you can't sue them, right? So Jamie Raskin can literally just say anything and you can't say, oh that's defamation, because he's an elected official. But maybe the billboard company, since the billboard company are not elected officials, then if they say something that's patently untrue, I think they can be sued for defamation.

Now the truth is that there is talk about the need to decrease the overall budget in stuff like Medicaid, but they're looking at like a 10% cut that maybe we can get entirely from fraud and abuse. And apparently there's no Republican who's ever said we're going to cut benefits. So you could argue that if there's an idea that it needs to be cut to meet our targets for the deficit that sort of is going to lead to that. But it does sound like the Republicans are holding tight. They don't want to change the benefits to the actual individual user. So they would only cut waste, fraud and abuse and maybe a little overhead kind of stuff. So we'll see if that's enough. But the Democrats have gone to just complete lying as their defense.

Do you remember when Democrats had ideas about policies and they'd say, hey, we got a better idea? They don't have that. The only thing they have is they sit in the room and they come up with creative lies and then they figure out who's going to say them. Hey, I've got an idea. Let's just make up some about Medicaid and we'll have Jamie Raskin go out and say it. And you know, the other designated liars, we can get Adam Schiff to say anything. Swalwell, he'll say anything. Designated liar.

Anyway, so Dean Phillips, who's a Democrat who, you know, remember he ran for president against Biden because he refused to be a stupid liar even though he was in the stupid liar party. So he tries to position himself as the last reasonable person who's also a Democrat. He does a pretty good job, which also means he has no chance of being elected. He can't get elected as a Democrat because he's sort of common sense. But he said that he was appalled at how Tim Walz was sort of laughing about the destruction of Tesla. And he said, you know, I really don't recognize my party. I don't recognize its principles. What I saw my governor and my friend Tim Walz say today was appalling. And I'm just shocked that someone who should know better read the room so poorly. And I'm going to give him a little bit of credit. I know sometimes some of you hate it when I give any Democrat any credit. But he didn't look like he was acting. That's a big deal. The other Democrats, they look like they know they're lying and they look like they know they're acting. He's either the best actor I've ever seen, and I don't think that's the case, or he really meant that. He really meant that he was appalled by his own party. I think he meant it. And I don't know, I think he's too reasonable to really make it to the top of the party. You need to be a little bit crazy I think to get even nominated to run for president.

Well, there's some gigantic study about the safety or lack of it for the COVID-19 shots. And there's some appalling outcomes. So here are some of the things they found. These shots would cause, just assume that there are gigantic percentages of increase that are in the three-digit category. So 610% increased risk of myocarditis following the mRNA injection, 378% more chance of acute disseminated encephalomyelitis, 323% increased risk of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, 249% extra risk of Guillain-Barré syndrome. Now is that how you say it, Guillain-Barré syndrome? Now is that what, who's the singer, the young male singer who his face had a little problem? Didn't he have that Guillain-Barré thing after a shot? So that's pretty awful.

I did check with Grok to see if there was anything in terms of cancer. But so far the shots are not confirmed to have any impact on cancer rates. But I don't know that that's been studied as much as it could be. But no indication of extra cancer. But these other things are pretty awful.

Secretary Marco Rubio says that DEI is going forever, but he means in the State Department. And he said this divisive and discriminatory practice has no place in our country or our diplomacy. So good for you, Secretary Marco Rubio, getting rid of DEI. I like that.

So I posted on X, and I think I need to explain it a little bit. I said that it feels like this week is the end of the Democrat Party as a political force that can win elections. Now what I mean is national. So obviously the Democrats will still be dominant in a lot of cities and a lot of states. But I feel like they've so destroyed their reputation at this point that I don't know how they could recover. It could be the end of them as a national party.

And if you look at sort of what's happening at the moment, the Tesla stuff, I don't think they've calculated that this just completely took away their biggest issue. One of the few things that Democrats had left to tell other Democrats that they should vote for Democrats is that the Republicans didn't take climate change seriously but Democrats did. And now we see the Tesla protests. They never meant that. That was all fake. So the biggest thing they had left has been debunked.

Now I'm not saying I know what is the answer of climate change. I'm just saying that as a political point it's completely dead. It's dead as it could be. Nobody's going to complain about Trump's coal plants this week because it just makes you look like an idiot. Because if you're still in favor of the Tesla protests you can't really say you're all in on climate change. All right, nobody's going to believe that. So that just sort of went away.

Remember when abortion was the biggest question in national politics? Well one of the smartest things the Republicans did is they knew that they would take a hit by moving it to the states. But it got there. So now that time has passed. That's very much a state issue. And there's Justin Bieber. Yes he's the one who got his face had a little droopiness for a while. I think it wasn't permanent, right? So they lost abortion as an issue. They lost climate change as an issue. They certainly lost border as an issue because the border policy is very clearly in favor of Trump. They might lose inflation as an issue because eggs are down and gas is down and Trump's going to meet with the big oil companies today I think.

And his Bell's palsy, is that what Justin Bieber had? Okay I guess I'm not up on my pop star health issues. But in the comments I'm seeing people say Bell's palsy.

I think that the DOGE stuff that is now currently the Democrats' biggest thing. The only thing they really have is the scalpel versus the chainsaw. And if DOGE works, which we will know for sure, and let's say by the third year of Trump's presidency if it works, nobody's going to remember the scalpel versus the chainsaw. It just has to work. If you can make it work everybody's going to say it worked and that's how history will record it. They won't remember the little talking point, oh the scalpel not the hatchet or the scalpel not the chainsaw. It'll just completely go away.

What about ending the war in Ukraine? I think we're not that close to getting that to end. But I think it'll be done before Trump is done with his term. So that looks like it might go away. So there's a whole lot of things that made it, you know, that gave you a reason. Oh what about DEI? So DEI is being just crushed by the Republicans. You know, as Marco Rubio said, where's all the pushback? Where are the protests in the street to say yes we want more DEI? Apparently that was never very important to Democrats. It was important to the people who were grifting off it and it was important as a talking point. But apparently it wasn't very important. And that people, pretty much everybody, understands that you'd rather have capability and skill rather than identity. So that went away.

So what do they have left? They're going to fight against common sense. That's all they have left. The fight against common sense. How can that possibly work except you know locally and maybe at the state level? So we'll see. I can be very wrong on that. You know, here's the alternate argument. The alternate argument is that it's always a pendulum. It doesn't matter what one is doing. You could just say all right who's winning this, 10 years? Okay 10 years from now the other ones will be winning and after that we'll go back to the other one winning. And I think there's something to that because you know each side adjusts and they come up with new lies and new plans anyway.

So this was a week we learned that Democrats were never serious about climate change. Do you remember there was the undercover video and I wish I could remember if it was O'Keefe or O'Keefe's old group. I can't remember which got that video. I'm going to say O'Keefe because I like him. So I'll just say it was his. Where it showed the CNN producer saying, oh yeah the next big thing we're going to be hitting on is climate change. And once you see that they're treating it as content and they're trying to frame how people think about it, it's hard to say that you can take seriously that they care about it. I mean they talked about it as a thing to put on the news. They didn't really talk about it as we're going to have to save the world by telling everybody that climate change is bad.

And by the way I just saw Greta Thunberg's name go by in the comments. And one of my comments was, don't you think if climate change were real that Greta Thunberg would have already come out and said, guys, guys, take this seriously. Tesla is not your e
