In terms of Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lord Jesus two words seek help. Trix are for kids, Congresswoman. Yesterday morning, which is, of course, the morning after Ron Mamdani's win in New York, you did tweet a photo or an image of the Statue of Liberty in a burka, [00:00:18] and you added the caption or comment. This hits hard. - What did you mean by that? - I'm so thankful every day that I exists. But right there, you saw Marjorie Taylor Greene being asked live to respond to this incendiary meme that she posted in the aftermath of Zoran Mamdani winning [00:00:34] the New York Democratic mayoral race. And we're going to show you the video of her responding, any predictions of how she's going to handle this very poorly. All right. I'm going to go off on these politicians in a minute. Look, I think first of all, you should be nice to her. [00:00:49] But anyway, let's see what she had to say. I'm an American woman, and I have all the freedoms in the world to never have to bow to a religion that would force me to cover my body up and only see my eyes and my fingertips. [00:01:05] And, that that is a major threat for all American women. And, I think that's something that that hits hard for all women. What was what were you tweeting at in reference to when you say it's a threat to American women? [00:01:20] Oh, that's a muslim, a muslim takeover or possibly Sharia law. That is a great threat to every single American woman. Of course, voters have the right to elect that. And I'll maintain my right to say that I think Sharia law and women being forced to wear burqas is the greatest threat to our freedoms as American women. [00:01:39] Right. But are you opposed to Muslims holding elected office? I am 100% opposed to Sharia law in America, 100% unapologetically opposed to Sharia law in America. I'd just be thinking about that the next time she asked me to be nice to her. So he is Muslim and so she's not going to [00:01:57] say it, but he cannot hold elected office and she's hardly alone in believing that. And this is just another example of the nonstop 24 over seven identity politics from the right. They're not going to even attempt to argue against Mamdani on the policies. His identity is the argument. [00:02:14] He is that way. So that's it. I don't have to explain myself. And in America, we don't have Sharia law, Muslim like dictates or whatever do not determine the rights that you have. This is America. Evangelical Christianity dictates what rights you have in America. [00:02:31] Unfortunately, by the way, it was earlier today at the Supreme Court came out with multiple rulings that effectively just enshrined Christian nationalist policies into law. On the topic of parents rights, you had three dissenting justices saying that insurance shouldn't have to pay for HIV medication, [00:02:50] an explicit sop to the religious right. But anyway, so she's not going to apologize for it. She's not going to explain it. She probably doesn't even understand the point that she's making. But that's her. And that is just a tweet after all. That's as far as it goes for her. For others, like Representative Andy Ogles, it's not just a tweet. [00:03:09] So he put out a tweet, but he wants action, he said. Zoran Little Muhammad Mamdani is an anti-Semitic, socialist communist who will destroy the great city of New York. He needs to be deported, which is why I am calling for him to be subject to denaturalization proceedings. [00:03:25] So yesterday it was like the Young Republicans club saying, we can't hope to beat this guy, so please save us, get him out of this country instantly. And as I tweeted the debate, me bros have become the deport him bros. That's how much faith they have in their rhetoric and policies. [00:03:41] But anyway, that's a representative. I don't know. Maybe you know what the little little Muhammad means. I don't even know what that's a reference to. I think it's just racism. But he's anti-Semitic, socialist and a communist. And for one or multiple of those reasons, the fact [00:03:57] that he's a citizen is irrelevant. He should be shipped out of the country. Now, if you're, for instance, like Nick Fuentes or Kanye West and you're wildly anti-Semitic, you get to have dinner with the president. If you are Muslim and we want to make that equate to anti-Semitism, then you don't [00:04:13] get to hold an elected office in America. Again, all of this is just based off of your identity and combined with your skin color. But that's that's two representatives losing their minds, triggered beyond rational thought over the fact that this young, charismatic man [00:04:28] did better than expected in that race. And so I don't know by Monday, what is what is Homan going to be doing? What is Stephen Miller going to be doing? Pam Bondi is a total tool in this fascist regime. Is it impossible that she'll look into finding some sort of excuse? [00:04:44] Do you think that they're not poring through his paperwork? He's been a citizen for years, but is it possible that maybe something was punctuated wrong in one of his pieces of paperwork a decade ago? Maybe he was late on something that they wouldn't find some excuse to deport this guy based entirely off of his identity. [00:05:00] Yeah. So, you know, I've been telling you guys, don't just blanket call all Trump voters fascists or racists, right? So that's about the voters, not the politicians. And as I've clarified a thousand times, you fight the politicians, you fight the powerful, you fight the donors, you fight the mainstream media. [00:05:18] You look up. Right. And, and secondly, when they are actually literally being racist or bigots. Yeah, you get to say that. So here's a contrast. Super random. Just a super chat. Just came in not having to do with this, but I'm going to read it to you [00:05:34] because of the point I'm making. Jason Travis said. I'm a populist conservative, so agree with you on a lot of economic issues. Medicaid for all. For example, I can say I would rather vote AOC for president than a corporate Republican, and that's why I'm a tight member. [00:05:51] So that's awesome. And we appreciate you, Jason. So that's why I say don't make blanket assumptions about the voters. They're a giant range. But when it comes to the politicians, Andy Ogles is a dirtbag. And he's obviously a racist bigot. Right? [00:06:06] And I don't really care if he gets offended at all because he obviously doesn't care if he offends Muslims, right? What does? Little Muhammad. It's not a reference to anything except he's Muslim. Let's all hate him. That's because Andy Ogles is a moron of epic proportions. [00:06:22] Okay? And what the hell is that? Marjorie Taylor Greene burka thing. And and her explanation makes it even worse. Like a Sharia law is the greatest threat to our freedom. Really? This is what I remember when Oklahoma passed a law saying that there shall. - Be no Sharia. - Law in Oklahoma. [00:06:38] Really? Why was Tulsa in danger of being taken over by the caliphate? Okay, no, this is just to drum up hatred towards Muslims. Nobody's taking over New York with Sharia law. This giant Muslim countries like Turkey that don't have Sharia law. You think one guy is going to come into New York, be like that? [00:06:55] Is it even though I didn't say anything about it and I'm not fundamentalist and I'm not radical and I'm not any of these things. I'm gonna just. I'm gonna turn New York into Sharia law. And by the way, the state legislature is going to go with it along with it. And so is the city council. They're not even trying to make sense. [00:07:11] Okay. So what they're saying is. So if you don't like that, don't say stupid crap like that, because you sound like a total, utter moron. It's not just that. Okay, look, I can get mad about the racism and bigotry, etc.. [00:07:28] As a person who grew up muslim in America, I'm a little used to it. Like, it's. And that's why I'm honestly, I get amused by Israeli supporters who are like, I'm offended you said a word slightly wrong. Oh my God, I'm so offended, right? Try being Muslim for a second and see how that turns out for you. [00:07:46] But put that aside. I just want to focus on how stupid they are because they think like all 2 billion Muslims are the same and that we're all violent terrorists, and that if if Mamdani takes over New York as takes over New York as mayor. [00:08:02] A lot of them, as we're going to get to here, think that, oh, it's going to be nine over 11 right away. Like Laura Loomer said it. Others have said it like he's going to come in and go, okay, that's it. I'm now the mayor. This is the button to blow up New York, right? There is no button to blow up New York. And he's coming to serve New York. [00:08:20] But because he's Muslim, they say all these terrible things without any backup, any backup to it at all, because they're terrible human beings. But hold. I'm going to argue that it gets worse. Okay. Because I think what Kirsten Gillibrand is doing is not as clearly racist as this, [00:08:37] but I think that it is more subversive, more disgusting, and more likely to be effective. In fact, we're asking the hardest question we've ever asked the sitcom who will do the most damage to Zoran Mamdani, a Maga maga guys who are like, oh yeah, he's Muslim. [00:08:53] He's going to blow up New York. Okay. Yeah. That was a little bit out there. Voters. Hey, listen, if you don't think that in your manga, you're innocent. If you do think that you are a moron, okay, be establishment Democrats. That's the Gillibrand part. [00:09:09] We're going to get to see donors like AIPAC. Bill Ackman. You can see how this is hard because they're all going to come from and mainstream media. I don't know how to answer that. I think MAGA because there's like the MAGA politicians because they're so stupid and obviously racist, [00:09:26] will do the least damage, but the other three are going to combine for massive damage against Mamdani. So we're going to John's going to tell you about the others in a second. But, what do you think so far? Yeah, absolutely. You made that impossible. I'm saying be all the way. [00:09:41] It will definitely be the neolibs. I'm old enough to remember when, Indi India Walton in Buffalo, New York, won the Democratic primary, and the neoliberals found a way to snatch that from her by having the mayor that the incumbent, he was able to run on another line. [00:10:00] And captured the general election. So we know Cuomo is out there now basically saying, you know, he doesn't know what he's going to do, but he's going to keep that line in terms of Marjorie Taylor Greene. Lord Jesus, two words seek help. Really? [00:10:15] Sharia law is the biggest threat to women in America, but not the legislation that that has been enacted all over this country, in various states that takes away a woman's ability to control her own body. That's not the biggest threat, but Sharia law is. [00:10:31] How about the fact that most women are not making dollar to dollar, dollar for dollar as their male counterparts? That's not a big threat, but non existent Sharia law in America is. Or how about the the federal minimum wage not increasing. [00:10:47] Or the subminimum wage that we got to do. Oh no, none of those things. How about the fact that we don't have universal health care? See, those things are real threats to women in America. So if the congresswoman was really serious about fighting those threats. [00:11:03] She would come on and join the folks on the side that want to change material conditions. And in terms of women being able to control what they wear. I can remember even in some of my church experiences, being limited growing up on what I could wear in certain segments of churches, [00:11:20] women wearing pants is not acceptable. And since I was a child being indoctrinated in this way, I didn't have many choices until I became grown. So for her to sit up here and say that only in some, Muslim religion, you know, portions of Sharia, Shiite, whatever, you know, the different segments of it [00:11:39] is the only thing that oppresses women. The woman is lying, her teeth, she's lying through her teeth. And I would have more respect for her if she just come on out and say that Moon Donnie is a muslim, and that is why she is opposed to him versus playing these games. [00:11:55] Tricks are for kids, Congresswoman. Yeah. One quick thing. Like if you think that all Muslims are violent fundamentalists, it's like somebody coming in and going, you know, Christians are so stupid. They handle the snakes and speak in tongues like morons. No, no, that's just Pentecostal fundamentalists. [00:12:13] Okay? To say that all Christians like that would be mental. Right. But Muslim terrorists are even smaller than fundamentalist Pentecostals because they're terrorists. There's like only a couple of hundred of them in the whole planet. [00:12:29] There's 2 billion Muslims, right? It's a microscopic percentage, right? But no, when it's a muslim, you could smear all of them. You can smear a quarter of the planet and it's totally fine. It's not fine if you do it to Christians or Jews or Muslims. [00:12:44] For a party that decries identity politics, they sure play a lot of it, doesn't it? Exactly. That's a great point, Nina, because this is how look, I say a lot of times, don't fall into the trap of going along with things that are unpopular in identity politics. But this is the Republican starting identity politics [00:13:01] and they started all the time. There's another identity politics thing they started. It's called the Southern Strategy. Okay, so you should check that out in my book, Justice is Coming. So Republicans that complain about identity politics. So when your own politicians do it, why don't you tell them to shut their mouth? [00:13:17] All right. Go ahead. Yeah. And in particular, when the Democrats know that the Republicans elected media otherwise are doing all of this, the fact that so many of them would either participate as we're going to show you or for the most part, a lot of them just stand back. Don't say, don't defend him. [00:13:33] Don't rally around your popular, you know, future star potentially. Instead, just allow them to be attacked or in some cases actually participate in it. And so here is Kirsten Gillibrand. But I do also want to be clear that he said he does not support violent intifada. [00:13:51] Is that fair? So, Brian, I didn't hear your exchange with him, but if I was speaking to him directly, I would simply say that is not how the words are received. And it doesn't matter what meaning you have in your brain. [00:14:06] It is not how the word is received. And when you use a word like intifada to many Jewish Americans and Jewish New Yorkers, that means you are permissive for violence against Jews. So I appreciate that he told you he didn't mean that. [00:14:22] - And that's great. - And I think we should also clarify. Or he was clarifying that he never said globalize the intifada. He was asked in an interview if he would denounce the phrase globalize the intifada. And then that led to this kind of conversation, you know, [00:14:40] that you were just referring to. But but that he was never out there saying globalize the intifada. He was asked about other people who used it. So just just to be precise about about what happened there. Yes. [00:14:55] Well, as a leader of a city as diverse as New York City, with 8 million people as the largest Jewish population in the country. He should denounce it. And that's it. Period. Pretty naturally, it goes from denouncing him because you [00:15:12] think, mistakenly, that he said it. Then you're reminded that he did not, in fact, say it, and you're still just denouncing him exactly as much like it doesn't matter. And again, yeah, you're you're a leader of that state. And, you know, the Democratic electorate of that state also just chose him. He could potentially be a leader to maybe maybe speak with him, maybe [00:15:28] especially when you see the rabid, vile Islamophobia racing towards him as not. We're not just talking about catchphrases. Elected representatives are calling for him to be denaturalized and deported, maybe end up in sea court or something like that. [00:15:44] The fact that Gillibrand would so readily jump on board with that is depressing. Now, coming out of the interview, a spokesman for Gillibrand said that she had misspoken when initially implying that he had said it. Again, she didn't misspeak. She was wrong. [00:16:00] And even when corrected, held basically the same position. But in any event, we've been debating who it is. It's going to do more damage. Genk, what do you make of that and the willingness to do this character assassination. So that's just a sophisticated way of saying, hey little Mohammed, you're my donor. [00:16:18] Say you shouldn't be in this race. Hey, donors send me money. I love Israel and I'm going to smear any Muslim that comes across here. So, Jill Brian's disgusting. Okay, so look, I'm going to go off more on Gillibrand and tell you how dangerous she is and how counterproductive she's been to the entire Democratic Party. [00:16:36] But first, He didn't even say a word. But they're doing a character assassination based on him defending someone else saying a word. Gee, I wonder if I predicted that there would be character assassinations [00:16:51] from the left and the right. Let's just watch from yesterday's show what I want you to know and and look for going forward from this day to the day of the general election in New York, is watch what the mainstream media does, because they're the actual hatchet men. [00:17:09] Remember, the Ackman money goes into buying ads in mainstream media, and the mainstream media coincidentally supports their candidate 100% and then digs and digs and digs and tries to find something wrong with Mamdani and then comes out and goes, [00:17:27] we have this and this and this. And a Republican congressman today already at it, you found a rap lyric in something Mamdani sang once, and he's like, He's supporting the wrong people in a rap line or whatever. So you're going to see 200 stories like that, and here we go. [00:17:46] We're on the board already, okay with several of them. And the way that it works is it's an incestuous cycle. Someone plants a story in the media. Did you know he didn't denounce the word, the phrase globalize the intifada? And then establishment Democrat, like Gillibrand picks it up and goes. Oh my God, he's saying illegal words. Oh, my donors are super upset. [00:18:05] I mean, the voters of New York are super upset. They're super upset that anyone is criticizing our. - Beloved. - Israel. I mean, this goddamn Muslim. I mean, I mean, I mean, I'm worried about the words he's using. Well, he didn't use them, but words he's defending that he might use, but he doesn't use, etc.. [00:18:21] I told you, I told you they're going to put one hatchet after another. By the way, if they're using words he didn't even use to smear him. Like I said, there's going to be 200 of these. And that also means they don't have much. Yeah. If they're having to go to rap lyrics from when he was a kid about some randos and [00:18:39] they're going to words he didn't even say. That means they got bupkis. They have the equivalent of Marjorie Taylor Greene and the burqa and Andy Ogles and little Mohammed. So. But the reason why I think Gillibrand does more damage is because of two things. One, it's more nefarious. [00:18:55] So when the idiot Republican politician goes in and goes, oh, he's Muslim. I don't like Muslims. Right. You're like, hey, everybody on the planet knows what a moron. And easy to dismiss, right? Gillibrand comes in with, he's offending people. He's the one that's actually causing harm. We have to stop him. [00:19:13] He's causing harm with his Muslim ness and the fact that he doesn't love Israel and say that we should send all of our money to Israel, we have to stop that stupid mosque. I mean, I mean, I mean, I'm way more sophisticated. My voters are offended. I'm offended. A lot of words from the river to the sea, right? [00:19:29] Terrible, I denounced that. I said, don't do that in the channels. It's counterproductive. It's not going to help us. And then Benjamin Netanyahu came out and said in front of the whole world that Israel is going to do from the river to the sea. He literally said it. And then he literally is doing it. [00:19:46] And is that a problem? Gillibrand has never called that out. Never know. Gillibrand loves it when Israel does the genocide, because tons and tons of her donors are AIPAC and other Israeli lobbyists so [00:20:02] that Republicans stab you from the front, the Democrats stab you from the back. And Gillibrand is famous for that. She's the one who stabbed Al Franken in the back and said, oh, I'm so disgusted by his sexual harassment because she thought that she was going to run for president. [00:20:19] And she did for about a second. And Franken was going to run for president at the time. So she wanted to eliminate one of her opponents within the Democratic Party. And now she sees Zoran Mamdani, and he's unacceptably not polishing the boots of Netanyahu. [00:20:35] And so she's like donors. Remember how much I tried to put a hatchet in Mamdani's back because he's a stupid Muslim. You're just like Marjorie Taylor Greene. In fact, you're worse than her. Okay, that's how I feel about it. Nina. [00:20:51] Amen. I mean, amen. She is a coward of epic proportions. And yes, Democrats like her are going to do more damage than The manga. And they're going to combine with the media and with the money class. So they all go together. [00:21:06] But she is an absolute coward, so I'm just Amen to what you said, Jinkx you already. You summed it up. I'm just add she's a coward. Yes, I agree, and mainstream media will love it. They'll say tut tut tut to Andy Ogles and Marjorie Taylor Greene [00:21:24] and then they will repeat the Gillibrand kind of smears 2000 times. Watch. You'll see it. You'll see it going forward. Mainstream media will take that super legitimately, and they'll talk endlessly about a word he didn't even say. Right? And yes, intifada can mean both things and oftentimes is referred to as [00:21:44] a global fight back against the occupation through politics, diplomacy, words. And some people mean it as violence and others do not mean it as violence. Also, there are words like Greater Israel, Eretz Israel, [00:22:00] which means and Judeo Samaria. That means that West Bank and Gaza Strip are Jewish land that Israel was swallow whole. They have the maps up in their cabinet and their Knesset, etc., and they plan to ethnically cleanse all the Palestinians and take that land, [00:22:17] and they're actually doing it. But that has never bothered, bothered Gillibrand. As long as the checks clear, she's totally and completely bought by the Israeli lobby. And yes, I said that. And let me see you call out Eretz Israel. Let me see you call out the genocidal terroristic state of Israel. [00:22:38] We just did a story earlier today, Haaretz reporting they're murdering people, getting food on purpose, civilians, 17,000 dead kids. But Gillibrand doesn't care. She cares about words. Words. 17. A stadium full of murdered children. [00:22:56] AIPAC. Did the check clear the stupid Muslims? Who who cares about them, right? Oh, a word offended one of my donors. A word he didn't even say. So that's kind of scum. Kirsten Gillibrand is who likes to destroy people. [00:23:12] And then all of mainstream media will help her try to destroy Mamdani. And credit to Brian Lehrer for actually sticking up for the truth there. Thank you, brother, for doing your job and saying what was true instead of going along with this horrifically racist senator from New York. Okay, no, Jewish Americans are not the only people [00:23:32] who get to say that they are offended. I'm offended. I'm offended. Does that count? No, no. If Muslims are offended because you attack all Muslims who don't bow their heads to a foreign government, but our offense doesn't matter. Right, Gillibrand? Because we didn't donate to you. [00:23:48] That's how these crooks are, both in the Republican and Democratic Party. Young Turks, every time you ring the bell below, an angel gets his wings. Totally not true. But it does keep you updated on our live shows.
