░░░░░░░░ to have you back ░░░░░░░░ the program How are ░░░░░░░░ sir gt gt Uh ░░░░░░░░ it s great to ░░░░░░░░ on with you And ░░░░░░░░ must say listening to ░░░░░░░░ uh recording of Robert ░░░░░░░░ I was in the ░░░░░░░░ when that happened I ░░░░░░░░ actually uh an eyewitness ░░░░░░░░ speech I was covering ░░░░░░░░ uh uh 1984 Democratic ░░░░░░░░ for uh for New ░░░░░░░░ which is the magazine ░░░░░░░░ Young Americans for Freedom ░░░░░░░░ we were part of ░░░░░░░░ press corps there and ░░░░░░░░ was uh in the ░░░░░░░░ listening to Jesse Jackson ░░░░░░░░ and I can t ░░░░░░░░ tell you tell you ░░░░░░░░ I agreed with everything ░░░░░░░░ said but uh boy ░░░░░░░░ a what a tremendously ░░░░░░░░ and and passionate uh ░░░░░░░░ for his views and ░░░░░░░░ somebody who s obviously ░░░░░░░░ behind the podium and ░░░░░░░░ on television and terribly ░░░░░░░░ and all that So ░░░░░░░░ uh he was somebody ░░░░░░░░ was just always on ░░░░░░░░ political uh scene um ░░░░░░░░ day you know agree ░░░░░░░░ disagree with him Man ░░░░░░░░ Johnny on the spot ░░░░░░░░ said I ve not ░░░░░░░░ him in a long ░░░░░░░░ I mean do you ░░░░░░░░ what condition he s ░░░░░░░░ or what shape he ░░░░░░░░ in or gt gt ░░░░░░░░ just we just talked ░░░░░░░░ it You know he ░░░░░░░░ he was diagnosed with ░░░░░░░░ s some time ago ░░░░░░░░ I was in Chicago ░░░░░░░░ few weeks ago went ░░░░░░░░ visit him So the ░░░░░░░░ s is you know ░░░░░░░░ s it s taking ░░░░░░░░ toll as as it ░░░░░░░░ Uh and um so ░░░░░░░░ s um he s ░░░░░░░░ weak of body but ░░░░░░░░ of mind I was ░░░░░░░░ saying the last hour ░░░░░░░░ you came on to ░░░░░░░░ your question uh that ░░░░░░░░ uh he s in ░░░░░░░░ s in a convolescent ░░░░░░░░ uh in Chicago Uh ░░░░░░░░ uh his mind is ░░░░░░░░ as ever I went ░░░░░░░░ spend some time with ░░░░░░░░ and uh he u ░░░░░░░░ only speak in a ░░░░░░░░ these days Um but ░░░░░░░░ leaned in real close ░░░░░░░░ listen to him Droy ░░░░░░░░ started talking about our ░░░░░░░░ on Ukraine and Russia ░░░░░░░░ was whispering to me ░░░░░░░░ Israel and Gaza I ░░░░░░░░ his mind uh is ░░░░░░░░ there Uh and uh ░░░░░░░░ s you again he ░░░░░░░░ t he can t ░░░░░░░░ his eyes um these ░░░░░░░░ really Uh but um ░░░░░░░░ s sitting there listening ░░░░░░░░ to news and information ░░░░░░░░ day long So he ░░░░░░░░ still as tapped in ░░░░░░░░ he ever was As ░░░░░░░░ said earlier it s ░░░░░░░░ his DNA Um so ░░░░░░░░ yeah he um you ░░░░░░░░ he s um he ░░░░░░░░ at that point uh ░░░░░░░░ he s making uh ░░░░░░░░ that turn as we ░░░░░░░░ will at some point ░░░░░░░░ call it a dance ░░░░░░░░ mortality None of us ░░░░░░░░ out of here alive ░░░░░░░░ as I said earlier ░░░░░░░░ uh no his mind ░░░░░░░░ still there And uh ░░░░░░░░ it was just a ░░░░░░░░ to see him um ░░░░░░░░ Chicago just just a ░░░░░░░░ weeks ago But uh ░░░░░░░░ no question about it ░░░░░░░░ and I hear your ░░░░░░░░ that you don t ░░░░░░░░ don t agree with ░░░░░░░░ politically but his impact ░░░░░░░░ in terms of pushing ░░░░░░░░ Democratic Party I think ░░░░░░░░ unquestioned gt gt Uh ░░░░░░░░ That and also um ░░░░░░░░ tremendous visibility That s ░░░░░░░░ thing you say you ░░░░░░░░ we we don t ░░░░░░░░ 25 forever unfortunately And ░░░░░░░░ s right gt gt ░░░░░░░░ know you reach a ░░░░░░░░ where somebody who s ░░░░░░░░ the TV on the ░░░░░░░░ on the radio every ░░░░░░░░ all the time suddenly ░░░░░░░░ t there or not ░░░░░░░░ but gradually isn t ░░░░░░░░ And then you think ░░░░░░░░ yourself gee I you ░░░░░░░░ I ve not seen ░░░░░░░░ for a while How ░░░░░░░░ he doing So I ░░░░░░░░ glad you guys had ░░░░░░░░ opportunity to spend some ░░░░░░░░ together Was I m ░░░░░░░░ great for you and ░░░░░░░░ great for him and ░░░░░░░░ glad to hear that ░░░░░░░░ least mentally he s ░░░░░░░░ on top of things ░░░░░░░░ following the news and ░░░░░░░░ forth

connect ░░░░░░░░ we are playing a ░░░░░░░░ clip and who knew ░░░░░░░░ Droy even though he ░░░░░░░░ a black conservative was ░░░░░░░░ the convention in 84 ░░░░░░░░ he was in the ░░░░░░░░ uh uh and Jesse ░░░░░░░░ that speech in San ░░░░░░░░ Who knew again those ░░░░░░░░ were going to connect ░░░░░░░░ that way It s ░░░░░░░░ beautiful thing When we ░░░░░░░░ forward with Droy we ░░░░░░░░ talk about why I ░░░░░░░░ want him why I ░░░░░░░░ invited him on this ░░░░░░░░ and that is speaking ░░░░░░░░ the right to talk ░░░░░░░░ the cracks on the ░░░░░░░░ that are starting to ░░░░░░░░ As I mentioned earlier ░░░░░░░░ are cracks on both ░░░░░░░░ but I want to ░░░░░░░░ to Droy about these ░░░░░░░░ on the right Uh ░░░░░░░░ what we learned from ░░░░░░░░ private call that went ░░░░░░░░ yesterday uh

commentator ░░░░░░░░ spectator contributing editor and ░░░░░░░░ Signal columnist Um so ░░░░░░░░ mentioned a moment ago ░░░░░░░░ uh there was a ░░░░░░░░ yesterday uh yesterday afternoon ░░░░░░░░ and it it gives ░░░░░░░░ some insight into the ░░░░░░░░ inside the Republican Party ░░░░░░░░ this shutdown strategy Um ░░░░░░░░ Roy um uh you ░░░░░░░░ by these cracks gt ░░░░░░░░ Not too much I ░░░░░░░░ when you ve got ░░░░░░░░ 218 people of any ░░░░░░░░ you re going to ░░░░░░░░ people start to disagree ░░░░░░░░ things especially after or ░░░░░░░░ day 29 day 30 ░░░░░░░░ has been going on ░░░░░░░░ about a month Uh ░░░░░░░░ you don t have ░░░░░░░░ lot of people uh ░░░░░░░░ on the other side ░░░░░░░░ the crack if you ░░░░░░░░ You ve got obviously ░░░░░░░░ Taylor Green who s ░░░░░░░░ some questions about uh ░░░░░░░░ GOP House strategy but ░░░░░░░░ think you know almost ░░░░░░░░ else is maybe one ░░░░░░░░ two exceptions or three ░░░░░░░░ are are with Mike ░░░░░░░░ on this And you ░░░░░░░░ that he said and ░░░░░░░░ lot of us have ░░░░░░░░ that um the Democrats ░░░░░░░░ know the House passed ░░░░░░░░ continuing resolution the Senate ░░░░░░░░ to pass it and ░░░░░░░░ you need to have ░░░░░░░░ 60 votes in this ░░░░░░░░ the Senate So you ░░░░░░░░ even with every I ░░░░░░░░ every Republican except Ran ░░░░░░░░ supporting this thing Uh ░░░░░░░░ need to get another ░░░░░░░░ know five or six ░░░░░░░░ to get this thing ░░░░░░░░ the you know out ░░░░░░░░ uh filibuster and onto ░░░░░░░░ floor to be voted ░░░░░░░░ And these uh Republicans ░░░░░░░░ the Senate put up ░░░░░░░░ vote after another after ░░░░░░░░ saying Okay uh if ░░░░░░░░ pass this and reopen ░░░░░░░░ government the uh soldiers ░░░░░░░░ GIS and military will ░░░░░░░░ paid Uh if we ░░░░░░░░ this and reopen the ░░░░░░░░ government the air traffic ░░░░░░░░ will get paid There ░░░░░░░░ a vote I think ░░░░░░░░ yesterday saying that if ░░░░░░░░ reopen the government and ░░░░░░░░ shutdown uh the money ░░░░░░░░ flow for uh for ░░░░░░░░ stamps the SNAP program ░░░░░░░░ there are a lot ░░░░░░░░ people millions of folks ░░░░░░░░ need uh nutrition assistance ░░░░░░░░ as of if you ░░░░░░░░ on SNAP you better ░░░░░░░░ get to the grocery ░░░░░░░░ before Halloween because as ░░░░░░░░ November one that money ░░░░░░░░ out And you would ░░░░░░░░ that Democrats which always ░░░░░░░░ see say that they ░░░░░░░░ the party that supports ░░░░░░░░ uh needy people and ░░░░░░░░ on that they would ░░░░░░░░ All right well we ░░░░░░░░ to help the people ░░░░░░░░ These this is kind ░░░░░░░░ our base I think ░░░░░░░░ or 75 or 80 ░░░░░░░░ people on food stamps ░░░░░░░░ Democrats Um and yet ░░░░░░░░ voted no They voted ░░░░░░░░ this So I m ░░░░░░░░ sure what else the ░░░░░░░░ or the Senate can ░░░░░░░░ other than you know ░░░░░░░░ all the Republicans in ░░░░░░░░ Senate and all but ░░░░░░░░ I think it was ░░░░░░░░ believe was unanimous in ░░░░░░░░ uh House vote for ░░░░░░░░ thing for the continuing ░░░░░░░░ which the Democrats voted ░░░░░░░░ in favor 13 times ░░░░░░░░ and they keep they ░░░░░░░░ putting these additional things ░░░░░░░░ you know we ll ░░░░░░░░ special money in to ░░░░░░░░ sure that that SNAP ░░░░░░░░ the food stamps continue ░░░░░░░░ uh the TSA people ░░░░░░░░ paid that the GIS ░░░░░░░░ paid and um the ░░░░░░░░ um shutdown and Schumer ░░░░░░░░ continue and the government ░░░░░░░░ closed And u I ░░░░░░░░ people getting frustrated but ░░░░░░░░ m not sure what ░░░░░░░░ the Republicans can do ░░░░░░░░ than vote unanim unanimously ░░░░░░░░ reopen the government And ░░░░░░░░ just don t have ░░░░░░░░ seven you don t ░░░░░░░░ up the extra six ░░░░░░░░ seven uh Democrats you ░░░░░░░░ in order to reopen ░░░░░░░░ government get back to ░░░░░░░░ gt gt When you ░░░░░░░░ you ask that question ░░░░░░░░ not at all rhetorically ░░░░░░░░ hope um uh about ░░░░░░░░ Republicans can do There ░░░░░░░░ something they can do ░░░░░░░░ could start with um ░░░░░░░░ this refusal to even ░░░░░░░░ to the negotiating table ░░░░░░░░ Democrats That s part ░░░░░░░░ what we heard that ░░░░░░░░ out in this call ░░░░░░░░ that it was Marjorie ░░░░░░░░ Green and others She ░░░░░░░░ t the only one ░░░░░░░░ Krenshaw Texas There were ░░░░░░░░ on that call uh ░░░░░░░░ were raising questions about ░░░░░░░░ or not this strategy ░░░░░░░░ refusing to to negotiate ░░░░░░░░ Democrats um is a ░░░░░░░░ strategy What say you ░░░░░░░░ that gt gt Well ░░░░░░░░ I m all for ░░░░░░░░ negotiations I ll mention ░░░░░░░░ a minute I think ░░░░░░░░ that might be the ░░░░░░░░ compromise here but you ░░░░░░░░ in order to uh ░░░░░░░░ the negotiations which could ░░░░░░░░ on for weeks and ░░░░░░░░ I mean this is ░░░░░░░░ an easy uh issue ░░░░░░░░ reopen the government let ░░░░░░░░ air traffic controllers show ░░░░░░░░ and make sure the ░░░░░░░░ don t smack into ░░░░░░░░ other Let the TSA ░░░░░░░░ get paid so we ░░░░░░░░ sure people get on ░░░░░░░░ shouldn t be on ░░░░░░░░ not folks who shouldn ░░░░░░░░ be on them and ░░░░░░░░ people who need public ░░░░░░░░ get the public assistance ░░░░░░░░ then with all that ░░░░░░░░ to normal you can ░░░░░░░░ discussions now I think ░░░░░░░░ one thing that could ░░░░░░░░ a way that uh ░░░░░░░░ make everyone happy is ░░░░░░░░ say look uh in ░░░░░░░░ of subsidies for healthcare ░░░░░░░░ don t think that ░░░░░░░░ be going to illegal ░░░░░░░░ who broke into this ░░░░░░░░ if if you came ░░░░░░░░ here illegally I don ░░░░░░░░ think you ought to ░░░░░░░░ getting any help but ░░░░░░░░ you re here illegally ░░░░░░░░ re an American citizen ░░░░░░░░ you re a legal ░░░░░░░░ and you need assistance ░░░░░░░░ healthcare How about this ░░░░░░░░ whatever the subsidies are ░░░░░░░░ re going to get ░░░░░░░░ ll get it in ░░░░░░░░ terms of a voucher ░░░░░░░░ you want to use ░░░░░░░░ for ObamaCare great If ░░░░░░░░ want to use that ░░░░░░░░ a catastrophic u individual ░░░░░░░░ plan with high deductible ░░░░░░░░ can do that If ░░░░░░░░ want to get an ░░░░░░░░ health plan that ll ░░░░░░░░ available Anybody who wants ░░░░░░░░ health savings account can ░░░░░░░░ it So basically the ░░░░░░░░ will get the subsidies ░░░░░░░░ they want and the ░░░░░░░░ and conservatives get the ░░░░░░░░ the choice the freedom ░░░░░░░░ and ability to shop ░░░░░░░░ that we like That ░░░░░░░░ be something that makes ░░░░░░░░ happy and that might ░░░░░░░░ a way of getting ░░░░░░░░ of this But I ░░░░░░░░ a way to get ░░░░░░░░ is to reopen the ░░░░░░░░ make sure that the ░░░░░░░░ services people pay for ░░░░░░░░ their taxes are delivered ░░░░░░░░ then people could sit ░░░░░░░░ and have a sensible ░░░░░░░░ try to come up ░░░░░░░░ something that s uh ░░░░░░░░ to do a lot ░░░░░░░░ good for a lot ░░░░░░░░ people gt gt Um ░░░░░░░░ I hear your idea ░░░░░░░░ it s worth noodling ░░░░░░░░ that again you can ░░░░░░░░ get to that point ░░░░░░░░ if the two sides ░░░░░░░░ t come together and ░░░░░░░░ agree um to some ░░░░░░░░ of framework to make ░░░░░░░░ happen Um just jumping ░░░░░░░░ there and reopening government ░░░░░░░░ then trying to address ░░░░░░░░ issues I think is ░░░░░░░░ That s just my ░░░░░░░░ of it But one ░░░░░░░░ the other issues that ░░░░░░░░ out in this conversation ░░░░░░░░ we were told uh ░░░░░░░░ concerns that were raised ░░░░░░░░ uh Mike Johnson uh ░░░░░░░░ the house the speaker ░░░░░░░░ is keeping the house ░░░░░░░░ recess during the shutdown ░░░░░░░░ it s one thing ░░░░░░░░ not come to the ░░░░░░░░ to the negotiating table ░░░░░░░░ to negotiate in good ░░░░░░░░ with Democrats Is another ░░░░░░░░ to lose all these ░░░░░░░░ of getting other work ░░░░░░░░ because you re keeping ░░░░░░░░ House in recess and ░░░░░░░░ re told that there ░░░░░░░░ Republicans who raised concerns ░░░░░░░░ that issue them being ░░░░░░░░ recess all this time ░░░░░░░░ well gt gt Mhm ░░░░░░░░ I think that there ░░░░░░░░ a real question there ░░░░░░░░ to the degree that ░░░░░░░░ there is money to ░░░░░░░░ the lights on on ░░░░░░░░ Hill I mean I ░░░░░░░░ not sure exactly what ░░░░░░░░ funding is as to ░░░░░░░░ is or not is ░░░░░░░░ is not in the ░░░░░░░░ budget but assuming that ░░░░░░░░ money is there there ░░░░░░░░ no reason in my ░░░░░░░░ why they can t ░░░░░░░░ having oversight hearings uh ░░░░░░░░ u confirmation hearings in ░░░░░░░░ Senate side for people ░░░░░░░░ have judicial nominations or ░░░░░░░░ for ambassador or whatever ░░░░░░░░ it is Uh and ░░░░░░░░ they you know there ░░░░░░░░ no reason I I ░░░░░░░░ they can t be ░░░░░░░░ passing legislation and debating ░░░░░░░░ it and you know ░░░░░░░░ stuff the Democrats like ░░░░░░░░ pass sometimes some stuff ░░░░░░░░ dislike might pass but ░░░░░░░░ the house ought to ░░░░░░░░ able to continue doing ░░░░░░░░ work while the rest ░░░░░░░░ the government basically the ░░░░░░░░ mainly the executive Branch ░░░░░░░░ is closed if they ░░░░░░░░ the money to do ░░░░░░░░ again I don t ░░░░░░░░ if the funding is ░░░░░░░░ that they re able ░░░░░░░░ to to meet in ░░░░░░░░ session in the house ░░░░░░░░ that seems seems to ░░░░░░░░ that they can walk ░░░░░░░░ chew gum at the ░░░░░░░░ time as far as ░░░░░░░░ goes gt gt Yep ░░░░░░░░ again one other piece ░░░░░░░░ this um uh this ░░░░░░░░ storyline uh that broke ░░░░░░░░ uh about this private ░░░░░░░░ where there was some ░░░░░░░░ angst And again I ░░░░░░░░ I uh to do ░░░░░░░░ s point he s ░░░░░░░░ about this By and ░░░░░░░░ Republican Republicans as I ░░░░░░░░ earlier are largely unified ░░░░░░░░ their strategy of keeping ░░░░░░░░ House out of session ░░░░░░░░ to negotiate with Democrats ░░░░░░░░ again that s why ░░░░░░░░ call it a crack ░░░░░░░░ are some cracks starting ░░░░░░░░ show And one we ░░░░░░░░ told one of these ░░░░░░░░ in this meeting yesterday ░░░░░░░░ that if we negotiate ░░░░░░░░ good faith uh with ░░░░░░░░ apppropo pro within the ░░░░░░░░ process we may break ░░░░░░░░ ice jam If we ░░░░░░░░ in good faith with ░░░░░░░░ the apppropole process we ░░░░░░░░ break the ice jam ░░░░░░░░ makes sense to me ░░░░░░░░ s wrong with that ░░░░░░░░ gt You mean Republicans ░░░░░░░░ themselves or negotiate gt ░░░░░░░░ with Democrats With Democrats ░░░░░░░░ gt gt Oh I ░░░░░░░░ Well again I I ░░░░░░░░ think the negotiation s ░░░░░░░░ And I ll give ░░░░░░░░ a rough idea of ░░░░░░░░ I would do or ░░░░░░░░ I propose or where ░░░░░░░░ might end up Um ░░░░░░░░ uh you know I ░░░░░░░░ that the leverage to ░░░░░░░░ that word I ve ░░░░░░░░ a few times already ░░░░░░░░ to get the Democrats ░░░░░░░░ the table and say ░░░░░░░░ you know you got ░░░░░░░░ reopen the government because ░░░░░░░░ know especially when you ░░░░░░░░ dealing with something like ░░░░░░░░ which a very complicated ░░░░░░░░ and there many many ░░░░░░░░ know bells and whistles ░░░░░░░░ uh you know u ░░░░░░░░ parts to this thing ░░░░░░░░ I don t see ░░░░░░░░ as a two or ░░░░░░░░ day negotiation that probably ░░░░░░░░ on for a week ░░░░░░░░ two or three I ░░░░░░░░ remember how long it ░░░░░░░░ to put ObamaCare together ░░░░░░░░ was probably better part ░░░░░░░░ a year maybe more ░░░░░░░░ I mean if if ░░░░░░░░ s how long that ░░░░░░░░ goes on does the ░░░░░░░░ stay closed and we ░░░░░░░░ all these problems with ░░░░░░░░ traffic controllers not getting ░░░░░░░░ Soldiers may or don ░░░░░░░░ get paid I think ░░░░░░░░ thankfully this private citizen ░░░░░░░░ up and wrote a ░░░░░░░░ for 130 million to ░░░░░░░░ the GIS If he ░░░░░░░░ t been there you ░░░░░░░░ have people in armed ░░░░░░░░ armed forces wondering how ░░░░░░░░ you know get dinner ░░░░░░░░ Uh so I I ░░░░░░░░ say let s get ░░░░░░░░ to normal at the ░░░░░░░░ function and then sit ░░░░░░░░ at a table and ░░░░░░░░ exactly the kind of ░░░░░░░░ we re talking about ░░░░░░░░ I don t see ░░░░░░░░ don t think that ░░░░░░░░ a quick uh negotiation ░░░░░░░░ s probably something that ░░░░░░░░ going to go go ░░░░░░░░ for at least a ░░░░░░░░ weeks So let s ░░░░░░░░ know let s not ░░░░░░░░ the government closed until ░░░░░░░░ before we can have ░░░░░░░░ some sort of a ░░░░░░░░ and move forward and ░░░░░░░░ you know turn the ░░░░░░░░ back on gt gt ░░░░░░░░ your point about advancing ░░░░░░░░ Thanksgiving in just weeks ░░░░░░░░ now uh and to ░░░░░░░░ earlier point as well ░░░░░░░░ these SNAP benefits uh ░░░░░░░░ cut you saw uh ░░░░░░░░ uh uh dozen more ░░░░░░░░ two dozen states suing ░░░░░░░░ Trump his administration over ░░░░░░░░ food cut off It ░░░░░░░░ about to get really ░░░░░░░░ funky Uh these food ░░░░░░░░ are about to grow ░░░░░░░░ uh what s your ░░░░░░░░ of how Republicans are ░░░░░░░░ to start to feel ░░░░░░░░ these cracks may grow ░░░░░░░░ when these food lines ░░░░░░░░ to grow gt gt ░░░░░░░░ you know I imagine ░░░░░░░░ they are going to ░░░░░░░░ like you described that ░░░░░░░░ not going to be ░░░░░░░░ pretty footage to to ░░░░░░░░ But look what I ░░░░░░░░ do I mean I ░░░░░░░░ I m surprised that ░░░░░░░░ ve not done uh ░░░░░░░░ ads explain to people ░░░░░░░░ s going on I ░░░░░░░░ the speeches by John ░░░░░░░░ today in particular and ░░░░░░░░ speeches by Mike Johnson ░░░░░░░░ of explain what the ░░░░░░░░ s view is on ░░░░░░░░ But I mean I ░░░░░░░░ to the degree that ░░░░░░░░ had a vote in ░░░░░░░░ Senate I think it ░░░░░░░░ yesterday saying look uh ░░░░░░░░ will we want the ░░░░░░░░ for food stamps to ░░░░░░░░ out there vote to ░░░░░░░░ the government and people ░░░░░░░░ get their benefits on ░░░░░░░░ and the Democrats you ░░░░░░░░ six of them um ░░░░░░░░ they needed was six ░░░░░░░░ them to move over ░░░░░░░░ of them to agree ░░░░░░░░ the U GOP Senate ░░░░░░░░ about three or so ░░░░░░░░ that would have been ░░░░░░░░ the shutdown would end ░░░░░░░░ money would flow everyone ░░░░░░░░ be happy but instead ░░░░░░░░ had all but three ░░░░░░░░ but three I think ░░░░░░░░ Democrats say nope we ░░░░░░░░ not going to do ░░░░░░░░ again this is this ░░░░░░░░ not like okay this ░░░░░░░░ money for tax cuts ░░░░░░░░ this is money for ░░░░░░░░ know some new defense ░░░░░░░░ weapon that Democrats might ░░░░░░░░ like This is for ░░░░░░░░ of many people who ░░░░░░░░ in in the Democrat ░░░░░░░░ If I were a ░░░░░░░░ sort of loyal Democrat ░░░░░░░░ who happens to be ░░░░░░░░ food stamps and I ░░░░░░░░ thinking okay where am ░░░░░░░░ going to get my ░░░░░░░░ tonight And I m ░░░░░░░░ looking at Chuck Schumer ░░░░░░░░ you voted against that ░░░░░░░░ bill to feed me ░░░░░░░░ and you voted no ░░░░░░░░ s going on here ░░░░░░░░ thought you guys were ░░░░░░░░ to be on my ░░░░░░░░ And I think uh ░░░░░░░░ probably want to make ░░░░░░░░ point a little more ░░░░░░░░ and I think a ░░░░░░░░ of people might be ░░░░░░░░ surprised to hear it ░░░░░░░░ gt Yep I think ░░░░░░░░ view of that is ░░░░░░░░ quite different Uh this ░░░░░░░░ could have could have ░░░░░░░░ sure that these SNAP ░░░░░░░░ went through November weeks ░░░░░░░░ uh and they chose ░░░░░░░░ to do that So ░░░░░░░░ can blame the Democrats ░░░░░░░░ Donald Trump s president ░░░░░░░░ and his party is ░░░░░░░░ control They could have ░░░░░░░░ sure that these benefits ░░░░░░░░ through November again as ░░░░░░░░ said weeks ago and ░░░░░░░░ chose not to do ░░░░░░░░ I digress on that ░░░░░░░░ I ve got about ░░░░░░░░ minutes left here I ░░░░░░░░ to turn to this ░░░░░░░░ quick We ll get ░░░░░░░░ the Democrat u the ░░░░░░░░ cracks in a moment ░░░░░░░░ Everett Kelly uh is ░░░░░░░░ guest uh at on ░░░░░░░░ back side of this ░░░░░░░░ He runs uh the ░░░░░░░░ u uh federal government ░░░░░░░░ union uh and they ░░░░░░░░ really put Democrats in ░░░░░░░░ tight spot as I ░░░░░░░░ it yesterday by coming ░░░░░░░░ demanding that the shutdown ░░░░░░░░ immediately that there be ░░░░░░░░ clean resolution I want ░░░░░░░░ hear his point of ░░░░░░░░ because I think he ░░░░░░░░ I are going to ░░░░░░░░ on this but I ░░░░░░░░ to hear every what ░░░░░░░░ has to say in ░░░░░░░░ five six minutes from ░░░░░░░░ But in the few ░░░░░░░░ I have left with ░░░░░░░░ I happen to know ░░░░░░░░ Droy lives in New ░░░░░░░░ Uh and uh I ░░░░░░░░ that because every time ░░░░░░░░ talks to me there ░░░░░░░░ a siren in the ░░░░░░░░ Uh and today we ░░░░░░░░ t heard it as ░░░░░░░░ So I m I ░░░░░░░░ waiting on it I ░░░░░░░░ four minutes left to ░░░░░░░░ that siren uh of ░░░░░░░░ am some ambulance running ░░░░░░░░ the street chasing through ░░░░░░░░ streets running through the ░░░░░░░░ of New York City ░░░░░░░░ t heard it as ░░░░░░░░ But you re in ░░░░░░░░ York and this mayor ░░░░░░░░ race is coming up ░░░░░░░░ ve talked to many ░░░░░░░░ about this I ve ░░░░░░░░ had a chance to ░░░░░░░░ to a black conservative ░░░░░░░░ this mayor s race ░░░░░░░░ happens to live in ░░░░░░░░ York City So broadly ░░░░░░░░ tell me what tell ░░░░░░░░ what your read of ░░░░░░░░ race is and I ░░░░░░░░ have a quick follow ░░░░░░░░ or two gt gt ░░░░░░░░ thing Well the reason ░░░░░░░░ re not hearing a ░░░░░░░░ any sirens or or ░░░░░░░░ in the background the ░░░░░░░░ phone may catch fire ░░░░░░░░ your your your uh ░░░░░░░░ transmitter may explode when ░░░░░░░░ say this but I ░░░░░░░░ actually sitting in my ░░░░░░░░ at Fox News right ░░░░░░░░ That s why it ░░░░░░░░ so nice You re ░░░░░░░░ this you people inside ░░░░░░░░ I I didn t ░░░░░░░░ I didn t this ░░░░░░░░ audience didn t need ░░░░░░░░ know that But go ░░░░░░░░ Go ahead I m ░░░░░░░░ m just teasing Just ░░░░░░░░ Just gt gt hope ░░░░░░░░ s ears aren t ░░░░░░░░ U but yeah we ░░░░░░░░ got the election in ░░░░░░░░ than a week and ░░░░░░░░ uh you know as ░░░░░░░░ right now uh Zan ░░░░░░░░ is comfortably ahead but ░░░░░░░░ people have been raising ░░░░░░░░ about him about you ░░░░░░░░ how far left he ░░░░░░░░ Uh is he a ░░░░░░░░ supporter All of these ░░░░░░░░ have been floating around ░░░░░░░░ m sure you and ░░░░░░░░ listeners are familiar with ░░░░░░░░ Uh there is um ░░░░░░░░ interesting division We ve ░░░░░░░░ talking about cracks cracks ░░░░░░░░ Republicans Uh some of ░░░░░░░░ believe our nominee Curtis ░░░░░░░░ the founder of the ░░░░░░░░ Angels is a guy ░░░░░░░░ s very pro He ░░░░░░░░ talking about tax cuts ░░░░░░░░ s talking about school ░░░░░░░░ He s running on ░░░░░░░░ issues and I think ░░░░░░░░ deserves the support of ░░░░░░░░ Republicans other voters who ░░░░░░░░ in what he does ░░░░░░░░ then you ve got ░░░░░░░░ people who are saying ░░░░░░░░ you know quote unquote ░░░░░░░░ can t win vote ░░░░░░░░ Cuomo because he s ░░░░░░░░ far left Democrat but ░░░░░░░░ s not a Marxist ░░░░░░░░ socialist whatever term you ░░░░░░░░ to use Uh and ░░░░░░░░ there is some division ░░░░░░░░ the right And I ░░░░░░░░ had discussions with people ░░░░░░░░ ve known for many ░░░░░░░░ some of whom are ░░░░░░░░ with flee some of ░░░░░░░░ are going with Cuomo ░░░░░░░░ one of my concerns ░░░░░░░░ Andrew Cuomo is what ░░░░░░░░ was a behavior during ░░░░░░░░ CO 19 when he ░░░░░░░░ um CO positive seniors ░░░░░░░░ go back into nursing ░░░░░░░░ and the healthy seniors ░░░░░░░░ were not infected suddenly ░░░░░░░░ infected and about 12 ░░░░░░░░ of them died Just ░░░░░░░░ And so I think ░░░░░░░░ me that s a ░░░░░░░░ When you re responsible ░░░░░░░░ the deaths of almost ░░░░░░░░ 000 seniors you shouldn ░░░░░░░░ be running for office ░░░░░░░░ ought to be indicted ░░░░░░░░ negligent homicide So I ░░░░░░░░ Cuomo ought to get ░░░░░░░░ of this race and ░░░░░░░░ have a two man ░░░░░░░░ between Mum Dani Mdani ░░░░░░░░ Sivwa And people have ░░░░░░░░ very clear choice of ░░░░░░░░ left or going right ░░░░░░░░ I I like elections ░░░░░░░░ ve got a clear ░░░░░░░░ rather than somebody like ░░░░░░░░ uh Andrew Cuomo kind ░░░░░░░░ muddying it up in ░░░░░░░░ middle gt gt Well ░░░░░░░░ you well know that ░░░░░░░░ t going to happen ░░░░░░░░ is not going to ░░░░░░░░ out of this race ░░░░░░░░ a week or so ░░░░░░░░ go And gt gt ░░░░░░░░ man can dream gt ░░░░░░░░ Yeah Yeah Yeah And ░░░░░░░░ and and more and ░░░░░░░░ to the point there ░░░░░░░░ a new poll out ░░░░░░░░ that suggested Cuomo has ░░░░░░░░ Mandami s lead in ░░░░░░░░ for this mayor s ░░░░░░░░ to to to do ░░░░░░░░ s point uh Mandami ░░░░░░░░ um is far out ░░░░░░░░ Uh still got a ░░░░░░░░ know a significant lead ░░░░░░░░ Cuomo um since Eric ░░░░░░░░ dropped out of the ░░░░░░░░ uh this new poll ░░░░░░░░ has cut uh Mandami ░░░░░░░░ lead in half So ░░░░░░░░ s tightening up uh ░░░░░░░░ one can use that ░░░░░░░░ We will see what ░░░░░░░░ uh days from now ░░░░░░░░ but they do in ░░░░░░░░ have three choices Is ░░░░░░░░ ve got SWA Kota ░░░░░░░░ the Republican you got ░░░░░░░░ the Democratic nominee and ░░░░░░░░ have um uh uh ░░░░░░░░ Cuomo former governor running ░░░░░░░░ an independent ticket You ░░░░░░░░ know that of course ░░░░░░░░ we ll see what ░░░░░░░░ in the city of

░░░░░░░░ that private GOP call ░░░░░░░░ that spilled out yesterday ░░░░░░░░ and some of the ░░░░░░░░ uh the um uh ░░░░░░░░ the tension uh that ░░░░░░░░ place in that call ░░░░░░░░ Republicans about their uh ░░░░░░░░ shutdown strategy So those ░░░░░░░░ the cracks on the ░░░░░░░░ but there are also ░░░░░░░░ on the left The ░░░░░░░░ federal workers union made ░░░░░░░░ break with Democrats on ░░░░░░░░ shutdown yesterday I told ░░░░░░░░ during the show yesterday ░░░░░░░░ this news broke while ░░░░░░░░ was live on the ░░░░░░░░ that we would effort ░░░░░░░░ get him on the ░░░░░░░░ today and I am ░░░░░░░░ uh that we indeed ░░░░░░░░ bring you a conversation ░░░░░░░░ now with Everett Kelly ░░░░░░░░ of the American Federation ░░░░░░░░ Government Employees I don ░░░░░░░░ like selling wolf tickets ░░░░░░░░ I jumped out there ░░░░░░░░ I would get him ░░░░░░░░ t sure that I ░░░░░░░░ but thank God for ░░░░░░░░ He s here to ░░░░░░░░ why his union is ░░░░░░░░ for an end to ░░░░░░░░ shutdown without the healthcare ░░░░░░░░ sought by Democrats Everett ░░░░░░░░ thank you for taking ░░░░░░░░ phone call sir Good ░░░░░░░░ have you back on ░░░░░░░░ program gt gt Good ░░░░░░░░ be back and thank ░░░░░░░░ for having me gt ░░░░░░░░ My pleasure So let ░░░░░░░░ just give you a ░░░░░░░░ minutes here I m ░░░░░░░░ to stand down and ░░░░░░░░ my microphone off because ░░░░░░░░ are a lot of ░░░░░░░░ trying to understand what ░░░░░░░░ all did yesterday and ░░░░░░░░ you did what you ░░░░░░░░ yesterday Take it away ░░░░░░░░ first of all I ░░░░░░░░ want to say that ░░░░░░░░ got to look back ░░░░░░░░ months uh and see ░░░░░░░░ of the issues that ░░░░░░░░ employees have been facing ░░░░░░░░ with Doge uh starting ░░░░░░░░ the fact that they ░░░░░░░░ saying they re going ░░░░░░░░ take chainsaws and they ░░░░░░░░ going to just uh ░░░░░░░░ up the government I ░░░░░░░░ 820 000 federal and ░░░░░░░░ C government workers that ░░░░░░░░ been going through pure ░░░░░░░░ for the last nine ░░░░░░░░ You know even threatening ░░░░░░░░ in in all of ░░░░░░░░ types of things Then ░░░░░░░░ there come the riffs ░░░░░░░░ Uh we filed lawsuits ░░░░░░░░ we ve been winning ░░░░░░░░ lawsuits Matter of fact ░░░░░░░░ know we just won ░░░░░░░░ uh PI on yesterday ░░░░░░░░ know the the the ░░░░░░░░ says that what this ░░░░░░░░ is doing is absolutely ░░░░░░░░ But but then the ░░░░░░░░ come and as a ░░░░░░░░ of this shutdown you ░░░░░░░░ people are beginning to ░░░░░░░░ to the point to ░░░░░░░░ they are hungry I ░░░░░░░░ up on last Thursday ░░░░░░░░ and I saw people ░░░░░░░░ I represent standing in ░░░░░░░░ to get food and ░░░░░░░░ knew that something has ░░░░░░░░ change And the only ░░░░░░░░ because no one was ░░░░░░░░ to each other And ░░░░░░░░ I said you know ░░░░░░░░ I m got I ░░░░░░░░ to be the one ░░░░░░░░ shake the bush I ░░░░░░░░ to be the one ░░░░░░░░ say you know we ░░░░░░░░ to bring this shutdown ░░░░░░░░ the end And so ░░░░░░░░ s what I did ░░░░░░░░ did it for the ░░░░░░░░ of the members that ░░░░░░░░ represent They re just ░░░░░░░░ the rest of America ░░░░░░░░ of America live from ░░░░░░░░ to paycheck And the ░░░░░░░░ that I represent they ░░░░░░░░ no different And so ░░░░░░░░ objective is to try ░░░░░░░░ get two sides talking ░░░░░░░░ that we can get ░░░░░░░░ workers back to the ░░░░░░░░ and the services that ░░░░░░░░ American people deserve and ░░░░░░░░ they want can be ░░░░░░░░ gt gt So I ░░░░░░░░ hear your point about ░░░░░░░░ um uh to move ░░░░░░░░ a way that would ░░░░░░░░ get these two sides ░░░░░░░░ But as you well ░░░░░░░░ part of the Republican ░░░░░░░░ Everett uh Mr Kelly ░░░░░░░░ been uh one to ░░░░░░░░ out of session So ░░░░░░░░ ain t that interested ░░░░░░░░ control the gavl They ░░░░░░░░ majority They have deliberately ░░░░░░░░ out of session and ░░░░░░░░ have deliberately refused to ░░░░░░░░ to talk to Democrats ░░░░░░░░ I hear your point ░░░░░░░░ wanting to get both ░░░░░░░░ talking but it s ░░░░░░░░ who are refusing to ░░░░░░░░ It s Republicans refusing ░░░░░░░░ come back into session ░░░░░░░░ and so to those ░░░░░░░░ listening right now who ░░░░░░░░ the pain let me ░░░░░░░░ very clear about this ░░░░░░░░ those listening right now ░░░░░░░░ understand absolutely the pain ░░░░░░░░ your union members are ░░░░░░░░ how do you respond ░░░░░░░░ those who say that ░░░░░░░░ decision by you yesterday ░░░░░░░░ out Democrats gt gt ░░░░░░░░ has nothing to do ░░░░░░░░ Democrats or Republicans It ░░░░░░░░ to do with you ░░░░░░░░ me I m I ░░░░░░░░ I m I m ░░░░░░░░ to represent federal employees ░░░░░░░░ that s was my ░░░░░░░░ I ve spoken to ░░░░░░░░ the members that I ░░░░░░░░ um through phone calls ░░░░░░░░ through polling you know ░░░░░░░░ they says they re ░░░░░░░░ of the shutdown They ░░░░░░░░ they are tired of ░░░░░░░░ the fact that uh ░░░░░░░░ used as pawns over ░░░░░░░░ over and over again ░░░░░░░░ they wanted to stop ░░░░░░░░ I do think that ░░░░░░░░ is some movement you ░░░░░░░░ because I think that ░░░░░░░░ we did is kind ░░░░░░░░ shook the tree and ░░░░░░░░ there is some talk ░░░░░░░░ both sides about whether ░░░░░░░░ not federal employees should ░░░░░░░░ used as puns anymore ░░░░░░░░ this game and that ░░░░░░░░ my objective gt gt ░░░░░░░░ So when I when ░░░░░░░░ when I asked that ░░░░░░░░ about selling out Democrats ░░░░░░░░ while we understand the ░░░░░░░░ that your union members ░░░░░░░░ feeling make no mistake ░░░░░░░░ it No question about ░░░░░░░░ Uh there s pain ░░░░░░░░ Americans all across the ░░░░░░░░ would be feeling if ░░░░░░░░ were this so called ░░░░░░░░ resolution without health care ░░░░░░░░ that Democrats have drawn ░░░░░░░░ line in the sand ░░░░░░░░ these health care costs ░░░░░░░░ ve already seen it ░░░░░░░░ you know the the ░░░░░░░░ the open enrollment is ░░░░░░░░ to happen We ve ░░░░░░░░ seen the numbers escalating ░░░░░░░░ what healthc care is ░░░░░░░░ to cost America cost ░░░░░░░░ all across the country ░░░░░░░░ 860 000 members in ░░░░░░░░ union I get that ░░░░░░░░ a precious soul That ░░░░░░░░ is real and I ░░░░░░░░ it But there are ░░░░░░░░ million Americans many of ░░░░░░░░ Democrats would argue that ░░░░░░░░ are standing in defense ░░░░░░░░ with regard to their ░░░░░░░░ care So this this ░░░░░░░░ this this government shutdown ░░░░░░░░ save may benefit your ░░░░░░░░ 000 members But when ░░░░░░░░ when I asked the ░░░░░░░░ about selling out Democrats ░░░░░░░░ the if government reopens ░░░░░░░░ Democrats lose this fight ░░░░░░░░ healthcare are you at ░░░░░░░░ concerned about all the ░░░░░░░░ Americans who going to ░░░░░░░░ in harm s way ░░░░░░░░ gt Tavis I am ░░░░░░░░ about every American gt ░░░░░░░░ right gt gt I ░░░░░░░░ born and raised without ░░░░░░░░ Okay So I understand ░░░░░░░░ this issue is that ░░░░░░░░ I m concerned with ░░░░░░░░ not it s not ░░░░░░░░ health care It s ░░░░░░░░ the people that I ░░░░░░░░ I think that healthc ░░░░░░░░ has to be addressed ░░░░░░░░ this country I think ░░░░░░░░ has to be a ░░░░░░░░ of what the discussion ░░░░░░░░ all about You know ░░░░░░░░ am not in no ░░░░░░░░ saying that that s ░░░░░░░░ important because it is ░░░░░░░░ it should not be ░░░░░░░░ the backs of federal ░░░░░░░░ Federal employees should not ░░░░░░░░ held hostage as this ░░░░░░░░ Mhm Um tell me ░░░░░░░░ about you you you ░░░░░░░░ of topline this Tell ░░░░░░░░ more about this vote ░░░░░░░░ you you top line

saying that ░░░░░░░░ should not be used ░░░░░░░░ pawns in a political ░░░░░░░░ and that you know ░░░░░░░░ that they should not ░░░░░░░░ you got to understand ░░░░░░░░ is things that have ░░░░░░░░ happening over the years ░░░░░░░░ they are absolutely tired ░░░░░░░░ it Yeah You know ░░░░░░░░ but the polling shows ░░░░░░░░ that federal employees do ░░░░░░░░ want to be used ░░░░░░░░ pawns you know

He s ░░░░░░░░ of the American Federation ░░░░░░░░ Government Employees Uh and ░░░░░░░░ invited him on to ░░░░░░░░ as he has why ░░░░░░░░ union AFGE is calling ░░░░░░░░ Congress to end the ░░░░░░░░ Uh but to do ░░░░░░░░ would mean that the ░░░░░░░░ care measures that Democrats ░░░░░░░░ been fighting for uh ░░░░░░░░ not be realized He ░░░░░░░░ made the point very ░░░░░░░░ I get it You ░░░░░░░░ it that his members ░░░░░░░░ suffering and somewhere around ░░░░░░░░ to1 uh they support ░░░░░░░░ the statement that he ░░░░░░░░ yesterday calling for this ░░░░░░░░ shutdown to end Now ░░░░░░░░ s the point If ░░░░░░░░ were in fact to ░░░░░░░░ back to the table ░░░░░░░░ said earlier it ain ░░░░░░░░ about Republic it ain ░░░░░░░░ about Republicans or Democrats ░░░░░░░░ take your point in ░░░░░░░░ but if Democrats were ░░░░░░░░ come back to the ░░░░░░░░ and what they ve ░░░░░░░░ demanding around healthcare for ░░░░░░░░ Americans um you know ░░░░░░░░ pushed to the side ░░░░░░░░ a fight they have ░░░░░░░░ fight at a later ░░░░░░░░ which they may or ░░░░░░░░ not get to They ░░░░░░░░ or may not win ░░░░░░░░ they don t control ░░░░░░░░ in Congress right now ░░░░░░░░ d be many people ░░░░░░░░ d be suffering uh ░░░░░░░░ Democrats I believe didn ░░░░░░░░ win this particular fight ░░░░░░░░ it s one way ░░░░░░░░ one way to look ░░░░░░░░ it as you said ░░░░░░░░ and I I hear ░░░░░░░░ point One way to ░░░░░░░░ at it is your ░░░░░░░░ members don t want ░░░░░░░░ be used as a ░░░░░░░░ in this fight I ░░░░░░░░ that The other way ░░░░░░░░ look at it is ░░░░░░░░ about taking one for ░░░░░░░░ team What about you ░░░░░░░░ standing strong standing firm ░░░░░░░░ the greater good Does ░░░░░░░░ not resonate at all ░░░░░░░░ of course that resonate ░░░░░░░░ you got to understand ░░░░░░░░ know that I myself ░░░░░░░░ gone through periods of ░░░░░░░░ life when I didn ░░░░░░░░ have adequate insurance I ░░░░░░░░ you know that is ░░░░░░░░ the issue here right ░░░░░░░░ in my opinion you ░░░░░░░░ that s an issue ░░░░░░░░ we have to address ░░░░░░░░ m not trying to ░░░░░░░░ that at all it ░░░░░░░░ absolutely necessary however it ░░░░░░░░ not be done holding ░░░░░░░░ employees hostage that s ░░░░░░░░ point it need you ░░░░░░░░ and I don t ░░░░░░░░ which party it is ░░░░░░░░ party had the right ░░░░░░░░ hold Americans hostage while ░░░░░░░░ negotiate policy It just ░░░░░░░░ just shouldn t happen ░░░░░░░░ and and and the ░░░░░░░░ that I represent it ░░░░░░░░ t happen to them ░░░░░░░░ Yeah gt gt You ░░░░░░░░ because they re not ░░░░░░░░ this as a partisan ░░░░░░░░ What they re seeing ░░░░░░░░ this You know gt ░░░░░░░░ young mothers single mothers ░░░░░░░░ t have a paycheck ░░░░░░░░ in right But they ░░░░░░░░ children that s got ░░░░░░░░ eat gt gt You ░░░░░░░░ they re seeing that ░░░░░░░░ got a mortgage that ░░░░░░░░ to gt gt be ░░░░░░░░ Yeah gt gt They ░░░░░░░░ seeing that I got ░░░░░░░░ go to work gt ░░░░░░░░ but I m not ░░░░░░░░ paid So how do ░░░░░░░░ get there They got ░░░░░░░░ get gas to go ░░░░░░░░ the car You know ░░░░░░░░ are real life issues ░░░░░░░░ they are facing every ░░░░░░░░ day and that s ░░░░░░░░ they are wanting me ░░░░░░░░ address gt gt Let ░░░░░░░░ ask you a question ░░░░░░░░ quick here Um does ░░░░░░░░ union endorse candidates gt ░░░░░░░░ Sure gt gt Did ░░░░░░░░ endorse in the last ░░░░░░░░ gt gt Sure we ░░░░░░░░ gt gt Who did ░░░░░░░░ endorse gt gt for ░░░░░░░░ gt gt Yes gt ░░░░░░░░ I endorsed Kla Harris ░░░░░░░░ I endorsed gt gt ░░░░░░░░ Biden gt gt President ░░░░░░░░ and then when he ░░░░░░░░ out I endorsed Kla ░░░░░░░░ and uh gt gt ░░░░░░░░ Trump Got it gt ░░░░░░░░ Governor Walls gt gt ░░░░░░░░ Got it Yes Okay ░░░░░░░░ here s and when ░░░░░░░░ come forward in our ░░░░░░░░ moments I want to ░░░░░░░░ make sure I was ░░░░░░░░ about my memory if ░░░░░░░░ memory serve me correctly ░░░░░░░░ thought that they endorsed ░░░░░░░░ this union American federation ░░░░░░░░ government employees which leads ░░░░░░░░ straight to the last ░░░░░░░░ my ex question I ░░░░░░░░ to ask if this ░░░░░░░░ and so many other ░░░░░░░░ have supported Democrats and ░░░░░░░░ Kla Harris and Joe ░░░░░░░░ prior to in this ░░░░░░░░ election What does it ░░░░░░░░ about the Democratic base ░░░░░░░░ one of its strongest ░░░░░░░░ is now saying We ░░░░░░░░ you re fighting for ░░░░░░░░ care but it s ░░░░░░░░ for this shutdown to ░░░░░░░░ One of the strongest ░░░░░░░░ We know the most ░░░░░░░░ base in the Democratic ░░░░░░░░ is who Black folk ░░░░░░░░ are the most loyal ░░░░░░░░ And we also make ░░░░░░░░ a lot of these ░░░░░░░░ members We We re ░░░░░░░░ members We re the ░░░░░░░░ loyal base But the ░░░░░░░░ Party wouldn t be ░░░░░░░░ near where it is ░░░░░░░░ now if they still ░░░░░░░░ t holding on to ░░░░░░░░ just black support but ░░░░░░░░ support But here s ░░░░░░░░ major union that endorsed ░░░░░░░░ that endorsed Biden that ░░░░░░░░ now 7 to1 saying ░░░░░░░░ shutdown has gone on ░░░░░░░░ enough Reopen government I ░░░░░░░░ the argument they don ░░░░░░░░ use as a pawn ░░░░░░░░ here s what I ░░░░░░░░ trying to right quick ░░░░░░░░ I m rambling I ░░░░░░░░ trying not to I ░░░░░░░░ trying to juxtapose in ░░░░░░░░ own mind what it ░░░░░░░░ that this union 7 ░░░░░░░░ one says reopen government ░░░░░░░░ with healthcare somewhere down ░░░░░░░░ road Trying to justapose ░░░░░░░░ with this speaking of ░░░░░░░░ the 7 million people ░░░░░░░░ we saw in these ░░░░░░░░ at the last no ░░░░░░░░ rallies So these no ░░░░░░░░ protesters are saying don ░░░░░░░░ you dare the no ░░░░░░░░ protesters are saying to ░░░░░░░░ don t you dare ░░░░░░░░ the knee for

News commentator American spectator ░░░░░░░░ editor and Daily Signal ░░░░░░░░ Um so I mentioned ░░░░░░░░ moment ago that uh ░░░░░░░░ was a call yesterday ░░░░░░░░ yesterday afternoon uh and ░░░░░░░░ it gives us some ░░░░░░░░ into the disscent inside ░░░░░░░░ Republican Party about this ░░░░░░░░ strategy Um do Roy ░░░░░░░░ uh you surprised by ░░░░░░░░ cracks gt gt Not ░░░░░░░░ much I mean when ░░░░░░░░ ve got 217 218 ░░░░░░░░ of any sort you ░░░░░░░░ going to get people ░░░░░░░░ to disagree with things ░░░░░░░░ after or what day ░░░░░░░░ day 30 This has ░░░░░░░░ going on for about ░░░░░░░░ month Uh but you ░░░░░░░░ t have a lot ░░░░░░░░ people uh on on ░░░░░░░░ other side of the ░░░░░░░░ if you will You ░░░░░░░░ got obviously Marjorie Taylor ░░░░░░░░ who s got some ░░░░░░░░ about uh the GOP ░░░░░░░░ strategy but I think ░░░░░░░░ know almost everybody else ░░░░░░░░ maybe one or two ░░░░░░░░ or three exceptions are ░░░░░░░░ with Mike Johnson on ░░░░░░░░ And you know that ░░░░░░░░ said and a lot ░░░░░░░░ us have said that ░░░░░░░░ the Democrats you know ░░░░░░░░ House passed this continuing ░░░░░░░░ the Senate tried to ░░░░░░░░ it and you you ░░░░░░░░ to have uh 60 ░░░░░░░░ in this in the ░░░░░░░░ So you know even ░░░░░░░░ every I think every ░░░░░░░░ except Ran Paul supporting ░░░░░░░░ thing Uh you need ░░░░░░░░ get another you know ░░░░░░░░ or six Democrats to ░░░░░░░░ this thing off the ░░░░░░░░ know out of uh ░░░░░░░░ and onto the floor ░░░░░░░░ be voted on And ░░░░░░░░ uh Republicans in the ░░░░░░░░ put up one vote ░░░░░░░░ another after another saying ░░░░░░░░ uh if we pass ░░░░░░░░ and reopen the government ░░░░░░░░ uh soldiers the GIS ░░░░░░░░ military will get paid ░░░░░░░░ if we pass this ░░░░░░░░ reopen the uh government ░░░░░░░░ air traffic controllers will ░░░░░░░░ paid There was a ░░░░░░░░ I think just yesterday ░░░░░░░░ that if we reopen ░░░░░░░░ government and the shutdown ░░░░░░░░ the money will flow ░░░░░░░░ uh for food stamps ░░░░░░░░ SNAP program and there ░░░░░░░░ a lot of people ░░░░░░░░ of folks who need ░░░░░░░░ nutrition assistance And as ░░░░░░░░ if you re on ░░░░░░░░ you better uh get ░░░░░░░░ the grocery store before ░░░░░░░░ because as of November ░░░░░░░░ that money runs out ░░░░░░░░ you would think that ░░░░░░░░ which always say see ░░░░░░░░ that they re the ░░░░░░░░ that supports uh uh ░░░░░░░░ people and so on ░░░░░░░░ they would say All ░░░░░░░░ well we got to ░░░░░░░░ the people out These ░░░░░░░░ is kind of our ░░░░░░░░ I think 80 or ░░░░░░░░ or 80 of people ░░░░░░░░ food stamps are Democrats ░░░░░░░░ and yet they voted ░░░░░░░░ They voted against this ░░░░░░░░ I m not sure ░░░░░░░░ else the Democrat or ░░░░░░░░ Senate can do other ░░░░░░░░ you know have all ░░░░░░░░ Republicans in the Senate ░░░░░░░░ all but uh I ░░░░░░░░ it was I believe ░░░░░░░░ unanimous in the uh ░░░░░░░░ vote for this thing ░░░░░░░░ the continuing resolution which ░░░░░░░░ Democrats voted for in ░░░░░░░░ 13 times Uh and ░░░░░░░░ keep they keep putting ░░░░░░░░ additional things saying you ░░░░░░░░ we ll put special ░░░░░░░░ in to make sure ░░░░░░░░ that SNAP continues the ░░░░░░░░ stamps continue that uh ░░░░░░░░ TSA people get paid ░░░░░░░░ the GIS get paid ░░░░░░░░ um the Schumer um ░░░░░░░░ and Schumer filibuster continue ░░░░░░░░ the government stays closed ░░░░░░░░ u I understand people ░░░░░░░░ frustrated but I m ░░░░░░░░ sure what else the ░░░░░░░░ can do other than ░░░░░░░░ unanim unanimously to reopen ░░░░░░░░ government And you just ░░░░░░░░ t have um seven ░░░░░░░░ don t kicked up ░░░░░░░░ extra six or seven ░░░░░░░░ Democrats you need in ░░░░░░░░ to reopen the government ░░░░░░░░ back to normal gt ░░░░░░░░ When you when you ░░░░░░░░ that question uh not ░░░░░░░░ all rhetorically I hope ░░░░░░░░ uh about what Republicans ░░░░░░░░ do There is something ░░░░░░░░ can do They could ░░░░░░░░ with um ending this ░░░░░░░░ to even come to ░░░░░░░░ negotiating table with Democrats ░░░░░░░░ s part of what ░░░░░░░░ heard that came out ░░░░░░░░ this call yesterday that ░░░░░░░░ was Marjorie Taylor Green ░░░░░░░░ others She wasn t ░░░░░░░░ only one Dan Krenshaw ░░░░░░░░ There were others on ░░░░░░░░ call uh who were ░░░░░░░░ questions about whether or ░░░░░░░░ this strategy of refusing ░░░░░░░░ to negotiate with Democrats ░░░░░░░░ is a sound strategy ░░░░░░░░ say you about that ░░░░░░░░ gt Well yeah I ░░░░░░░░ all for the negotiations ░░░░░░░░ ll mention in a ░░░░░░░░ I think something that ░░░░░░░░ be the grand compromise ░░░░░░░░ but you know in ░░░░░░░░ to uh have the ░░░░░░░░ which could go on ░░░░░░░░ weeks and weeks I ░░░░░░░░ this is not an ░░░░░░░░ uh issue Uh reopen ░░░░░░░░ government let the air ░░░░░░░░ controllers show up and ░░░░░░░░ sure the planes don ░░░░░░░░ smack into each other ░░░░░░░░ the TSA folks get ░░░░░░░░ so we make sure ░░░░░░░░ get on planes shouldn ░░░░░░░░ be on planes not ░░░░░░░░ who shouldn t be ░░░░░░░░ them and um people ░░░░░░░░ need public assistance get ░░░░░░░░ public assistance and then ░░░░░░░░ all that back to ░░░░░░░░ you can have discussions ░░░░░░░░ I think the one ░░░░░░░░ that could be a ░░░░░░░░ that uh could make ░░░░░░░░ happy is to say ░░░░░░░░ uh in terms of ░░░░░░░░ for healthcare I don ░░░░░░░░ think that should be ░░░░░░░░ to illegal aliens who ░░░░░░░░ into this country if ░░░░░░░░ you came in here ░░░░░░░░ I don t think ░░░░░░░░ ought to be getting ░░░░░░░░ help but if you ░░░░░░░░ here illegally you re ░░░░░░░░ American citizen or you ░░░░░░░░ a legal immigrant and ░░░░░░░░ need assistance with healthcare ░░░░░░░░ about this Uh whatever ░░░░░░░░ subsidies are you re ░░░░░░░░ to get you ll ░░░░░░░░ it in the terms ░░░░░░░░ a voucher If you ░░░░░░░░ to use that for ░░░░░░░░ great If you want ░░░░░░░░ use that for a ░░░░░░░░ u individual uh plan ░░░░░░░░ high deductible you can ░░░░░░░░ that If you want ░░░░░░░░ get an association health ░░░░░░░░ that ll be available ░░░░░░░░ who wants a health ░░░░░░░░ account can have it ░░░░░░░░ basically the Democrats will ░░░░░░░░ the subsidies subsidies they ░░░░░░░░ and the Republicans and ░░░░░░░░ get the uh the ░░░░░░░░ the freedom and and ░░░░░░░░ to shop around that ░░░░░░░░ like That ll be ░░░░░░░░ that makes everybody happy ░░░░░░░░ that might be a ░░░░░░░░ of getting out of ░░░░░░░░ But I think a ░░░░░░░░ to get there is ░░░░░░░░ reopen the government make ░░░░░░░░ that the public services ░░░░░░░░ pay for with their ░░░░░░░░ are delivered and then ░░░░░░░░ could sit down and ░░░░░░░░ a sensible negotiation try ░░░░░░░░ come up with something ░░░░░░░░ s uh going to ░░░░░░░░ a lot of good ░░░░░░░░ a lot of people ░░░░░░░░ gt Um I I ░░░░░░░░ your idea Uh it ░░░░░░░░ worth noodling except that ░░░░░░░░ you can t get ░░░░░░░░ that point uh if ░░░░░░░░ two sides can t ░░░░░░░░ together and uh agree ░░░░░░░░ to some sort of ░░░░░░░░ to make that happen ░░░░░░░░ just jumping out there ░░░░░░░░ reopening government and then ░░░░░░░░ to address those issues ░░░░░░░░ think is backwards That ░░░░░░░░ just my read of ░░░░░░░░ But one of the ░░░░░░░░ issues that came out ░░░░░░░░ this conversation yesterday we ░░░░░░░░ told uh are concerns ░░░░░░░░ were raised about uh ░░░░░░░░ Johnson uh keeping the ░░░░░░░░ the speaker that is ░░░░░░░░ the house in recess ░░░░░░░░ the shutdown So it ░░░░░░░░ one thing to not ░░░░░░░░ to the negotiate to ░░░░░░░░ negotiating table uh to ░░░░░░░░ in good faith with ░░░░░░░░ Is another thing to ░░░░░░░░ all these days of ░░░░░░░░ other work done because ░░░░░░░░ re keeping the House ░░░░░░░░ recess and we re ░░░░░░░░ that there were Republicans ░░░░░░░░ raised concerns about that ░░░░░░░░ them being in recess ░░░░░░░░ this time as well ░░░░░░░░ gt Mhm Well I ░░░░░░░░ that there is a ░░░░░░░░ question there because to ░░░░░░░░ degree that they there ░░░░░░░░ money to turn the ░░░░░░░░ on on the Hill ░░░░░░░░ mean I m not ░░░░░░░░ exactly what the funding ░░░░░░░░ as to what is ░░░░░░░░ not is or is ░░░░░░░░ in the legislative budget ░░░░░░░░ assuming that the money ░░░░░░░░ there there s no ░░░░░░░░ in my view why ░░░░░░░░ can t be having ░░░░░░░░ hearings uh having u ░░░░░░░░ hearings in the Senate ░░░░░░░░ for people who have ░░░░░░░░ nominations or nominations for ░░░░░░░░ or whatever else it ░░░░░░░░ Uh and um they ░░░░░░░░ know there s no ░░░░░░░░ I I think they ░░░░░░░░ t be u passing ░░░░░░░░ and debating on it ░░░░░░░░ you know some stuff ░░░░░░░░ Democrats like might pass ░░░░░░░░ some stuff they dislike ░░░░░░░░ pass but uh the ░░░░░░░░ ought to be able ░░░░░░░░ continue doing its work ░░░░░░░░ the rest of the ░░░░░░░░ basically the essentially mainly ░░░░░░░░ executive Branch uh is ░░░░░░░░ if they have the ░░░░░░░░ to do it again ░░░░░░░░ don t know if ░░░░░░░░ funding is such that ░░░░░░░░ re able even to ░░░░░░░░ meet in in session ░░░░░░░░ the house but that ░░░░░░░░ seems to me that ░░░░░░░░ can walk and chew ░░░░░░░░ at the same time ░░░░░░░░ far as this goes ░░░░░░░░ gt Yep Um again ░░░░░░░░ other piece of this ░░░░░░░░ uh this uh storyline ░░░░░░░░ that broke yesterday uh ░░░░░░░░ this private call where ░░░░░░░░ was some some angst ░░░░░░░░ again I I I ░░░░░░░░ to do Roy s ░░░░░░░░ he s right about ░░░░░░░░ By and large Republican ░░░░░░░░ as I said earlier ░░░░░░░░ largely unified around their ░░░░░░░░ of keeping the House ░░░░░░░░ of session refusing to ░░░░░░░░ with Democrats But again ░░░░░░░░ s why we call ░░░░░░░░ a crack There are ░░░░░░░░ cracks starting to show ░░░░░░░░ one we are told ░░░░░░░░ of these Republicans in ░░░░░░░░ meeting yesterday said that ░░░░░░░░ we negotiate in good ░░░░░░░░ uh with the apppropo ░░░░░░░░ within the appropole process ░░░░░░░░ may break the ice ░░░░░░░░ If we negotiate in ░░░░░░░░ faith with within the ░░░░░░░░ process we may break ░░░░░░░░ ice jam That makes ░░░░░░░░ to me What s ░░░░░░░░ with that gt gt ░░░░░░░░ mean Republicans negotiate themselves ░░░░░░░░ negotiate gt gt with ░░░░░░░░ With Democrats Yeah gt ░░░░░░░░ Oh I see Well ░░░░░░░░ I I I think ░░░░░░░░ negotiation s fine And ░░░░░░░░ ll give you a ░░░░░░░░ idea of what I ░░░░░░░░ do or what I ░░░░░░░░ or where this might ░░░░░░░░ up Um but uh ░░░░░░░░ know I think that ░░░░░░░░ leverage to use that ░░░░░░░░ I ve heard a ░░░░░░░░ times already uh to ░░░░░░░░ the Democrats to the ░░░░░░░░ and say look you ░░░░░░░░ you got to reopen ░░░░░░░░ government because you know ░░░░░░░░ when you re dealing ░░░░░░░░ something like healthcare which ░░░░░░░░ very complicated issue and ░░░░░░░░ many many you know ░░░░░░░░ and whistles and uh ░░░░░░░░ know u loose parts ░░░░░░░░ this thing Um I ░░░░░░░░ t see that as ░░░░░░░░ two or three day ░░░░░░░░ that probably goes on ░░░░░░░░ a week or two ░░░░░░░░ three I mean remember ░░░░░░░░ long it took to ░░░░░░░░ ObamaCare together That was ░░░░░░░░ better part of a ░░░░░░░░ maybe more So I ░░░░░░░░ if if that s ░░░░░░░░ long that negotiation goes ░░░░░░░░ does the government stay ░░░░░░░░ and we have all ░░░░░░░░ problems with air traffic ░░░░░░░░ not getting paid Soldiers ░░░░░░░░ or don t get ░░░░░░░░ I think But thankfully ░░░░░░░░ private citizen showed up ░░░░░░░░ wrote a check for ░░░░░░░░ million to pay the ░░░░░░░░ If he hadn t ░░░░░░░░ there you d have ░░░░░░░░ in armed service armed ░░░░░░░░ wondering how to you ░░░░░░░░ get dinner tonight Uh ░░░░░░░░ I I would say ░░░░░░░░ s get back to ░░░░░░░░ at the government function ░░░░░░░░ then sit down at ░░░░░░░░ table and have exactly ░░░░░░░░ kind of discussion we ░░░░░░░░ talking about And I ░░░░░░░░ t see I don ░░░░░░░░ think that s a ░░░░░░░░ uh negotiation That s ░░░░░░░░ something that s going ░░░░░░░░ go go on for ░░░░░░░░ least a couple weeks ░░░░░░░░ let s you know ░░░░░░░░ s not have the ░░░░░░░░ closed until Thanksgiving before ░░░░░░░░ can have uh some ░░░░░░░░ of a deal and ░░░░░░░░ forward and then you ░░░░░░░░ turn the lights back ░░░░░░░░ gt gt To your ░░░░░░░░ about advancing toward Thanksgiving ░░░░░░░░ just weeks from now ░░░░░░░░ and to your earlier ░░░░░░░░ as well about these ░░░░░░░░ benefits uh being cut ░░░░░░░░ saw uh these uh ░░░░░░░░ dozen more than two ░░░░░░░░ states suing uh Trump ░░░░░░░░ administration over this food ░░░░░░░░ off It s about ░░░░░░░░ get really really funky ░░░░░░░░ these food lines are ░░░░░░░░ to grow Um uh ░░░░░░░░ s your read of ░░░░░░░░ Republicans are going to ░░░░░░░░ to feel how these ░░░░░░░░ may grow uh when ░░░░░░░░ food lines start to ░░░░░░░░ gt gt Well you ░░░░░░░░ I imagine if they ░░░░░░░░ going to be like ░░░░░░░░ described that s not ░░░░░░░░ to be very pretty ░░░░░░░░ to to show But ░░░░░░░░ what I would do ░░░░░░░░ mean I m I ░░░░░░░░ surprised that they ve ░░░░░░░░ done uh political ads ░░░░░░░░ to people what s ░░░░░░░░ on I think the ░░░░░░░░ by John Thun today ░░░░░░░░ particular and the speeches ░░░░░░░░ Mike Johnson kind of ░░░░░░░░ what the GOP s ░░░░░░░░ is on this But ░░░░░░░░ mean I think to ░░░░░░░░ degree that they had ░░░░░░░░ vote in the Senate ░░░░░░░░ think it was yesterday ░░░░░░░░ look uh we will ░░░░░░░░ want the money for ░░░░░░░░ stamps to be out ░░░░░░░░ vote to reopen the ░░░░░░░░ and people will get ░░░░░░░░ benefits on Saturday and ░░░░░░░░ Democrats you know six ░░░░░░░░ them um all they ░░░░░░░░ was six of them ░░░░░░░░ move over five of ░░░░░░░░ to agree with the ░░░░░░░░ GOP Senate and about ░░░░░░░░ or so Democrats that ░░░░░░░░ have been approved the ░░░░░░░░ would end the money ░░░░░░░░ flow everyone would be ░░░░░░░░ but instead you had ░░░░░░░░ but three all but ░░░░░░░░ I think uh Democrats ░░░░░░░░ nope we re not ░░░░░░░░ to do And again ░░░░░░░░ is this is not ░░░░░░░░ okay this is money ░░░░░░░░ tax cuts or this ░░░░░░░░ money for you know ░░░░░░░░ new defense u weapon ░░░░░░░░ Democrats might not like ░░░░░░░░ is for benefits of ░░░░░░░░ people who are in ░░░░░░░░ the Democrat base If ░░░░░░░░ were a a sort ░░░░░░░░ loyal Democrat voter who ░░░░░░░░ to be on food ░░░░░░░░ and I m thinking ░░░░░░░░ where am I going ░░░░░░░░ get my dinner tonight ░░░░░░░░ I m think looking ░░░░░░░░ Chuck Schumer thinking you ░░░░░░░░ against that Republican bill ░░░░░░░░ feed me tonight and ░░░░░░░░ voted no What s ░░░░░░░░ on here I thought ░░░░░░░░ guys were supposed to ░░░░░░░░ on my side And ░░░░░░░░ think uh Republicans probably ░░░░░░░░ to make that point ░░░░░░░░ little more loudly and ░░░░░░░░ think a lot of ░░░░░░░░ might be quite surprised ░░░░░░░░ hear it gt gt ░░░░░░░░ I think Democrats view ░░░░░░░░ that is obviously quite ░░░░░░░░ Uh this administration could ░░░░░░░░ could have made sure ░░░░░░░░ these SNAP benefits went ░░░░░░░░ November weeks ago uh ░░░░░░░░ they chose not to ░░░░░░░░ that So you can ░░░░░░░░ the Democrats but Donald ░░░░░░░░ s president uh and ░░░░░░░░ party is in control ░░░░░░░░ could have made sure ░░░░░░░░ these benefits went through ░░░░░░░░ again as I said ░░░░░░░░ ago and they chose ░░░░░░░░ to do that I ░░░░░░░░ on that for I ░░░░░░░░ got about four minutes ░░░░░░░░ here I want to ░░░░░░░░ to this right quick ░░░░░░░░ ll get to the ░░░░░░░░ u the Democratic cracks ░░░░░░░░ a moment Uh Everett ░░░░░░░░ uh is our guest ░░░░░░░░ at on the back ░░░░░░░░ of this hour He ░░░░░░░░ uh the largest u ░░░░░░░░ federal government uh union ░░░░░░░░ and they um really ░░░░░░░░ Democrats in a tight ░░░░░░░░ as I see it ░░░░░░░░ by coming out demanding ░░░░░░░░ the shutdown end immediately ░░░░░░░░ there be a clean ░░░░░░░░ I want to hear ░░░░░░░░ point of view because ░░░░░░░░ think he and I ░░░░░░░░ going to disagree on ░░░░░░░░ but I want to ░░░░░░░░ every what he has ░░░░░░░░ say in about five ░░░░░░░░ minutes from now But ░░░░░░░░ the few minutes I ░░░░░░░░ left with Droy I ░░░░░░░░ to know that Droy ░░░░░░░░ in New York Uh ░░░░░░░░ uh I know that ░░░░░░░░ every time he talks ░░░░░░░░ me there s a ░░░░░░░░ in the background Uh ░░░░░░░░ today we haven t ░░░░░░░░ it as yet So ░░░░░░░░ m I m waiting ░░░░░░░░ it I got four ░░░░░░░░ left to hear that ░░░░░░░░ uh of some am ░░░░░░░░ ambulance running through the ░░░░░░░░ chasing through the streets ░░░░░░░░ through the streets of ░░░░░░░░ York City Haven t ░░░░░░░░ it as yet But ░░░░░░░░ re in New York ░░░░░░░░ this mayor s race ░░░░░░░░ coming up I ve ░░░░░░░░ to many others about ░░░░░░░░ I ve not had ░░░░░░░░ chance to talk to ░░░░░░░░ black conservative about this ░░░░░░░░ s race who happens ░░░░░░░░ live in New York ░░░░░░░░ So broadly speaking tell ░░░░░░░░ what tell me what ░░░░░░░░ read of this race ░░░░░░░░ and I may have ░░░░░░░░ quick follow up or ░░░░░░░░ gt gt Sure thing ░░░░░░░░ the reason you re ░░░░░░░░ hearing a uh any ░░░░░░░░ or or noise in ░░░░░░░░ background the the phone ░░░░░░░░ catch fire and your ░░░░░░░░ your uh your transmitter ░░░░░░░░ explode when I say ░░░░░░░░ but I m actually ░░░░░░░░ in my office at ░░░░░░░░ News right now That ░░░░░░░░ why it s so ░░░░░░░░ You re Yeah this ░░░░░░░░ people inside Yeah I ░░░░░░░░ didn t I I ░░░░░░░░ t this this audience ░░░░░░░░ t need to know ░░░░░░░░ But go ahead Go ░░░░░░░░ I m I m ░░░░░░░░ teasing Just teasing Just ░░░░░░░░ gt hope people s ░░░░░░░░ aren t burning U ░░░░░░░░ yeah we ve got ░░░░░░░░ election in less than ░░░░░░░░ week and um uh ░░░░░░░░ know as of right ░░░░░░░░ uh Zan Mami is ░░░░░░░░ ahead but um people ░░░░░░░░ been raising questions about ░░░░░░░░ about you know how ░░░░░░░░ left he is Uh ░░░░░░░░ he a Hamas supporter ░░░░░░░░ of these things have ░░░░░░░░ floating around I m ░░░░░░░░ you and your listeners ░░░░░░░░ familiar with that Uh ░░░░░░░░ is um an interesting ░░░░░░░░ We ve been talking ░░░░░░░░ cracks cracks among Republicans ░░░░░░░░ some of us believe ░░░░░░░░ nominee Curtis Lewa the ░░░░░░░░ of the Guardian Angels ░░░░░░░░ a guy who s ░░░░░░░░ pro He s talking ░░░░░░░░ tax cuts He s ░░░░░░░░ about school choice He ░░░░░░░░ running on Republican issues ░░░░░░░░ I think he deserves ░░░░░░░░ support of of Republicans ░░░░░░░░ voters who believe in ░░░░░░░░ he does And then ░░░░░░░░ ve got other people ░░░░░░░░ are saying well you ░░░░░░░░ quote unquote he can ░░░░░░░░ win vote for Cuomo ░░░░░░░░ he s a far ░░░░░░░░ Democrat but he s ░░░░░░░░ a Marxist Democratic socialist ░░░░░░░░ term you want to ░░░░░░░░ Uh and so there ░░░░░░░░ some division on the ░░░░░░░░ And I ve had ░░░░░░░░ with people I ve ░░░░░░░░ for many years some ░░░░░░░░ whom are sticking with ░░░░░░░░ some of whom are ░░░░░░░░ with Cuomo Uh one ░░░░░░░░ my concerns about Andrew ░░░░░░░░ is what he was ░░░░░░░░ behavior during uh CO ░░░░░░░░ when he forced um ░░░░░░░░ positive seniors to go ░░░░░░░░ into nursing homes and ░░░░░░░░ healthy seniors who were ░░░░░░░░ infected suddenly got infected ░░░░░░░░ about 12 700 of ░░░░░░░░ died Just awful And ░░░░░░░░ I think to me ░░░░░░░░ s a dealer When ░░░░░░░░ re responsible for the ░░░░░░░░ of almost 13 000 ░░░░░░░░ you shouldn t be ░░░░░░░░ for office You ought ░░░░░░░░ be indicted for negligent ░░░░░░░░ So I think Cuomo ░░░░░░░░ to get out of ░░░░░░░░ race and just have ░░░░░░░░ two man race between ░░░░░░░░ Dani Mdani and Sivwa ░░░░░░░░ people have a very ░░░░░░░░ choice of going left ░░░░░░░░ going right And I ░░░░░░░░ like elections We ve ░░░░░░░░ a clear choice rather ░░░░░░░░ somebody like uh uh ░░░░░░░░ Cuomo kind of muddying ░░░░░░░░ up in the middle ░░░░░░░░ gt Well as you ░░░░░░░░ know that ain t ░░░░░░░░ to happen Cuomo is ░░░░░░░░ going to get out ░░░░░░░░ this race with a ░░░░░░░░ or so to go ░░░░░░░░ gt gt a man ░░░░░░░░ dream gt gt Yeah ░░░░░░░░ Yeah And and and ░░░░░░░░ more and more to ░░░░░░░░ point there s a ░░░░░░░░ poll out u that ░░░░░░░░ Cuomo has sliced Mandami ░░░░░░░░ lead in half for ░░░░░░░░ mayor s race to ░░░░░░░░ to do Roy s ░░░░░░░░ uh Mandami still um ░░░░░░░░ far out front Uh ░░░░░░░░ got a you know ░░░░░░░░ significant lead but Cuomo ░░░░░░░░ since Eric Adams dropped ░░░░░░░░ of the race uh ░░░░░░░░ new poll suggest has ░░░░░░░░ uh Mandami s lead ░░░░░░░░ half So it s ░░░░░░░░ up uh if one ░░░░░░░░ use that phrase We ░░░░░░░░ see what happens uh ░░░░░░░░ from now Uh but ░░░░░░░░ do in fact have ░░░░░░░░ choices Is they ve ░░░░░░░░ SWA Kota SWA the ░░░░░░░░ you got Mandami the ░░░░░░░░ nominee and you have ░░░░░░░░ uh uh Andrew Cuomo ░░░░░░░░ governor running on an ░░░░░░░░ ticket You all know ░░░░░░░░ of course So we ░░░░░░░░ see what happens in ░░░░░░░░ city of New York ░░░░░░░░ now uh Dory Murdoch

░░░░░░░░ um uh the the ░░░░░░░░ uh that took place ░░░░░░░░ that call amongst Republicans ░░░░░░░░ their uh uh shutdown ░░░░░░░░ So those are the ░░░░░░░░ on the right but ░░░░░░░░ are also cracks on ░░░░░░░░ left The top federal ░░░░░░░░ union made a break ░░░░░░░░ Democrats on the shutdown ░░░░░░░░ I told you during ░░░░░░░░ show yesterday when this ░░░░░░░░ broke while I was ░░░░░░░░ on the air that ░░░░░░░░ would effort to get ░░░░░░░░ on the show today ░░░░░░░░ I am grateful uh ░░░░░░░░ we indeed can bring ░░░░░░░░ a conversation right now ░░░░░░░░ Everett Kelly president of ░░░░░░░░ American Federation of Government ░░░░░░░░ I don t like ░░░░░░░░ wolf tickets but I ░░░░░░░░ out there saying I ░░░░░░░░ get him Wasn t ░░░░░░░░ that I could but ░░░░░░░░ God for Jesus He ░░░░░░░░ here to explain why ░░░░░░░░ union is calling for ░░░░░░░░ end to the shutdown ░░░░░░░░ the healthcare measures sought ░░░░░░░░ Democrats Everett Kelly thank ░░░░░░░░ for taking my phone ░░░░░░░░ sir Good to have ░░░░░░░░ back on this program ░░░░░░░░ gt Good to be ░░░░░░░░ and thank you for ░░░░░░░░ me gt gt My ░░░░░░░░ So let me just ░░░░░░░░ you a few minutes ░░░░░░░░ I m going to ░░░░░░░░ down and turn my ░░░░░░░░ off because there are ░░░░░░░░ lot of people trying ░░░░░░░░ understand what y all ░░░░░░░░ yesterday and why you ░░░░░░░░ what you did yesterday ░░░░░░░░ it away Well first ░░░░░░░░ all I just want ░░░░░░░░ say that you got ░░░░░░░░ look back nine months ░░░░░░░░ and see all of ░░░░░░░░ issues that federal employees ░░░░░░░░ been facing Starting with ░░░░░░░░ uh starting with the ░░░░░░░░ that they were saying ░░░░░░░░ re going to take ░░░░░░░░ and they re going ░░░░░░░░ just uh rip up ░░░░░░░░ government I represent 820 ░░░░░░░░ federal and D C ░░░░░░░░ workers that have been ░░░░░░░░ through pure hell for ░░░░░░░░ last nine months You ░░░░░░░░ even threatening uh in ░░░░░░░░ all of those types ░░░░░░░░ things Then uh there ░░░░░░░░ the riffs okay Uh ░░░░░░░░ filed lawsuits and we ░░░░░░░░ been winning those lawsuits ░░░░░░░░ of fact you know ░░░░░░░░ just won one uh ░░░░░░░░ on yesterday You know ░░░░░░░░ the the judge says ░░░░░░░░ what this administration is ░░░░░░░░ is absolutely wrong But ░░░░░░░░ then the shutdown come ░░░░░░░░ as a result of ░░░░░░░░ shutdown you know people ░░░░░░░░ beginning to get to ░░░░░░░░ point to where they ░░░░░░░░ hungry I woke up ░░░░░░░░ last Thursday morning and ░░░░░░░░ saw people that I ░░░░░░░░ standing in line to ░░░░░░░░ food and I knew ░░░░░░░░ something has to change ░░░░░░░░ the only way because ░░░░░░░░ one was talking to ░░░░░░░░ other And so I ░░░░░░░░ you know what I ░░░░░░░░ got I got to ░░░░░░░░ the one to shake ░░░░░░░░ bush I got to ░░░░░░░░ the one to say ░░░░░░░░ know we got to ░░░░░░░░ this shutdown to the ░░░░░░░░ And so that s ░░░░░░░░ I did I did ░░░░░░░░ for the sake of ░░░░░░░░ members that I represent ░░░░░░░░ re just like the ░░░░░░░░ of America 65 of ░░░░░░░░ live from paycheck to ░░░░░░░░ And the members that ░░░░░░░░ represent they re no ░░░░░░░░ And so my objective ░░░░░░░░ to try to get ░░░░░░░░ sides talking so that ░░░░░░░░ can get government workers ░░░░░░░░ to the job and ░░░░░░░░ services that the American ░░░░░░░░ deserve and that they ░░░░░░░░ can be provided gt ░░░░░░░░ So I I hear ░░░░░░░░ point about wanting um ░░░░░░░░ to move in a ░░░░░░░░ that would help get ░░░░░░░░ two sides talking But ░░░░░░░░ you well know part ░░░░░░░░ the Republican strategy Everett ░░░░░░░░ Mr Kelly has been ░░░░░░░░ one to stay out ░░░░░░░░ session So Republicans ain ░░░░░░░░ that interested They control ░░░░░░░░ gavl They the majority ░░░░░░░░ have deliberately stayed out ░░░░░░░░ session and they have ░░░░░░░░ refused to negotiate to ░░░░░░░░ to Democrats So I ░░░░░░░░ your point about wanting ░░░░░░░░ get both sides talking ░░░░░░░░ it s Republicans who ░░░░░░░░ refusing to talk It ░░░░░░░░ Republicans refusing to come ░░░░░░░░ into session Uh and ░░░░░░░░ to those persons listening ░░░░░░░░ now who understand the ░░░░░░░░ let me be very ░░░░░░░░ about this For those ░░░░░░░░ right now who understand ░░░░░░░░ the pain that your ░░░░░░░░ members are feeling how ░░░░░░░░ you respond to those ░░░░░░░░ say that this decision ░░░░░░░░ you yesterday sold out ░░░░░░░░ gt gt It has ░░░░░░░░ to do with Democrats ░░░░░░░░ Republicans It has to ░░░░░░░░ with you know me ░░░░░░░░ m I m I ░░░░░░░░ I m elected to ░░░░░░░░ federal employees and that ░░░░░░░░ was my concern I ░░░░░░░░ spoken to uh the ░░░░░░░░ that I represent um ░░░░░░░░ phone calls uh through ░░░░░░░░ you know and they ░░░░░░░░ they re tired of ░░░░░░░░ shutdown They said they ░░░░░░░░ tired of uh the ░░░░░░░░ that uh they used ░░░░░░░░ pawns over and over ░░░░░░░░ over again and they ░░░░░░░░ to stop Now I ░░░░░░░░ think that there is ░░░░░░░░ movement you know because ░░░░░░░░ think that what we ░░░░░░░░ is kind of shook ░░░░░░░░ tree and now there ░░░░░░░░ some talk among both ░░░░░░░░ about whether or not ░░░░░░░░ employees should be used ░░░░░░░░ puns anymore in this ░░░░░░░░ and that s my ░░░░░░░░ gt gt Yep So ░░░░░░░░ I when I when ░░░░░░░░ asked that question about ░░░░░░░░ out Democrats um while ░░░░░░░░ understand the pain that ░░░░░░░░ union members are feeling ░░░░░░░░ no mistake about it ░░░░░░░░ question about that Uh ░░░░░░░░ s pain that Americans ░░░░░░░░ across the board would ░░░░░░░░ feeling if there were ░░░░░░░░ so called clean resolution ░░░░░░░░ health care measures that ░░░░░░░░ have drawn a line ░░░░░░░░ the sand over these ░░░░░░░░ care costs We ve ░░░░░░░░ seen it Um you ░░░░░░░░ the the uh the ░░░░░░░░ enrollment is about to ░░░░░░░░ We ve already seen ░░░░░░░░ numbers escalating on what ░░░░░░░░ care is going to ░░░░░░░░ America cost Americans all ░░░░░░░░ the country So 860 ░░░░░░░░ members in your union ░░░░░░░░ get that everyone a ░░░░░░░░ soul That pain is ░░░░░░░░ and I get it ░░░░░░░░ there are 300 million ░░░░░░░░ many of whom Democrats ░░░░░░░░ argue that they are ░░░░░░░░ in defense of with ░░░░░░░░ to their health care ░░░░░░░░ this this this this ░░░░░░░░ government shutdown may save ░░░░░░░░ benefit your 860 000 ░░░░░░░░ But when I when ░░░░░░░░ asked the question about ░░░░░░░░ out Democrats if the ░░░░░░░░ government reopens and Democrats ░░░░░░░░ this fight over healthcare ░░░░░░░░ you at all concerned ░░░░░░░░ all the other Americans ░░░░░░░░ going to be in ░░░░░░░░ s way gt gt ░░░░░░░░ I am concerned about ░░░░░░░░ American gt gt right ░░░░░░░░ gt I am born ░░░░░░░░ raised without healthcare Okay ░░░░░░░░ I understand But this ░░░░░░░░ is that that I ░░░░░░░░ concerned with has not ░░░░░░░░ s not about health ░░░░░░░░ It s about the ░░░░░░░░ that I represent I ░░░░░░░░ that healthc care has ░░░░░░░░ be addressed in this ░░░░░░░░ I think that has ░░░░░░░░ be a part of ░░░░░░░░ the discussion is all ░░░░░░░░ You know I am ░░░░░░░░ in no way saying ░░░░░░░░ that s not important ░░░░░░░░ it is But it ░░░░░░░░ not be on the ░░░░░░░░ of federal employees Federal ░░░░░░░░ should not be held ░░░░░░░░ as this unfolds Mhm ░░░░░░░░ tell me more about ░░░░░░░░ you you sort of ░░░░░░░░ this Tell me more ░░░░░░░░ this vote you you ░░░░░░░░ top line it You ░░░░░░░░ it Tell me more ░░░░░░░░ what your internal polling ░░░░░░░░ telling you about the ░░░░░░░░ about the disposition right ░░░░░░░░ of your members Well ░░░░░░░░ to one my members ░░░░░░░░ saying that they should ░░░░░░░░ be used as pawns ░░░░░░░░ a political game and ░░░░░░░░ you know that that ░░░░░░░░ should not because you ░░░░░░░░ to understand this is ░░░░░░░░ that have been happening ░░░░░░░░ the years and they ░░░░░░░░ absolutely tired of it ░░░░░░░░ You know but but ░░░░░░░░ polling shows 71 that ░░░░░░░░ employees do not want ░░░░░░░░ be used as pawns ░░░░░░░░ know in this game ░░░░░░░░ and and you know ░░░░░░░░ I talk to people ░░░░░░░░ uh throughout the country ░░░░░░░░ ll send the exact ░░░░░░░░ make phone calls gt ░░░░░░░░ Let me let me ░░░░░░░░ you a question Um ░░░░░░░░ hear the language you ░░░░░░░░ using and I m ░░░░░░░░ I m not trying ░░░░░░░░ be flippant I m ░░░░░░░░ asking a question because ░░░░░░░░ want to be clear ░░░░░░░░ you and I and ░░░░░░░░ audience are on the ░░░░░░░░ page I can understand ░░░░░░░░ clearly how there might ░░░░░░░░ a vote inside your ░░░░░░░░ or numbers that suggest ░░░░░░░░ 7 to one your ░░░░░░░░ members don t want ░░░░░░░░ be used as pawns ░░░░░░░░ get that No nobody ░░░░░░░░ to be a pawn ░░░░░░░░ I want to be ░░░░░░░░ that I m asking ░░░░░░░░ right question and you ░░░░░░░░ me the right answer ░░░░░░░░ you telling me that ░░░░░░░░ to1 is the ratio ░░░░░░░░ your union me union ░░░░░░░░ who wanted you to ░░░░░░░░ what you did yesterday ░░░░░░░░ gt I believe that ░░░░░░░░ the correct number Yes ░░░░░░░░ gt Okay That s ░░░░░░░░ strong number man gt ░░░░░░░░ It is gt gt ░░░░░░░░ to one said go ░░░░░░░░ and demand that government ░░░░░░░░ without health care measures ░░░░░░░░ these Democrats are seeking ░░░░░░░░ s a strong number ░░░░░░░░ gt Everyone is concerned ░░░░░░░░ health care right You ░░░░░░░░ I am I I ░░░░░░░░ I m very much ░░░░░░░░ about health care I ░░░░░░░░ that s an issue ░░░░░░░░ country has to take ░░░░░░░░ but not at the ░░░░░░░░ gt whim and not ░░░░░░░░ the backs of federal ░░░░░░░░ who are working every ░░░░░░░░ to provide a service ░░░░░░░░ the American people I ░░░░░░░░ gt I mean just ░░░░░░░░ about it You know ░░░░░░░░ many would say that ░░░░░░░░ want to uh work ░░░░░░░░ getting paid Mhm gt ░░░░░░░░ How many people want ░░░░░░░░ do that gt gt ░░░░░░░░ Yep gt gt The ░░░░░░░░ that I represent don ░░░░░░░░ want to do it ░░░░░░░░ gt gt Yep No ░░░░░░░░ get that When we ░░░░░░░░ forward and I m ░░░░░░░░ grateful that Eric Kelly ░░░░░░░░ my phone call again ░░░░░░░░ this is big news ░░░░░░░░ some of the biggest ░░░░░░░░ in Washington yesterday because ░░░░░░░░ was it it represented ░░░░░░░░ major moment a major ░░░░░░░░ a major crack if ░░░░░░░░ will uh in this ░░░░░░░░ Uh and so uh ░░░░░░░░ s trying to get ░░░░░░░░ Kelly and I m ░░░░░░░░ honored and humbled that ░░░░░░░░ took my phone call ░░░░░░░░ agreed to come on ░░░░░░░░ program today Uh I ░░░░░░░░ deeply deeply moved by ░░░░░░░░ When we come forward ░░░░░░░░ I do want to ░░░░░░░░ this 7 to1 number ░░░░░░░░ here s why Because ░░░░░░░░ that number is 7 ░░░░░░░░ that makes a huge ░░░░░░░░ about the Democratic base ░░░░░░░░ union or its members ░░░░░░░░ this this this union ░░░░░░░░ its members um uh ░░░░░░░░ to vote Democratic Uh ░░░░░░░░ Republicans have been no ░░░░░░░░ of unions in this ░░░░░░░░ for quite some time ░░░░░░░░ we as we all ░░░░░░░░ And so what I ░░░░░░░░ pushing toward is is ░░░░░░░░ is is a conversation ░░░░░░░░ better understanding about what ░░░░░░░░ number of 7 to1 ░░░░░░░░ this major union says ░░░░░░░░ where Democrats are writ ░░░░░░░░ I m talking about ░░░░░░░░ voters on the strategy ░░░░░░░░ s being imposed by ░░░░░░░░ party right now I ░░░░░░░░ sensing and feeling a ░░░░░░░░ disconnect if you feel ░░░░░░░░ around that 7 to1 ░░░░░░░░ We ll talk about ░░░░░░░░ when we come forward ░░░░░░░░ every Kelly on Tavis ░░░░░░░░ gt gt Generous listening ░░░░░░░░ gt Charitable listening gt ░░░░░░░░ That s why everybody ░░░░░░░░ to talk to Tavis ░░░░░░░░

Kelly uh ░░░░░░░░ we re honored to ░░░░░░░░ on this program He ░░░░░░░░ all kinds of major ░░░░░░░░ yesterday Everybody covering his ░░░░░░░░ He s president of ░░░░░░░░ American Federation of Government ░░░░░░░░ Uh and we invited ░░░░░░░░ on to explain as ░░░░░░░░ has why his union ░░░░░░░░ is calling on Congress ░░░░░░░░ end the shutdown Uh ░░░░░░░░ to do that would ░░░░░░░░ that the healthc care ░░░░░░░░ that Democrats have been ░░░░░░░░ for uh would not ░░░░░░░░ realized He s made ░░░░░░░░ point very clearly I ░░░░░░░░ it You get it ░░░░░░░░ his members are suffering ░░░░░░░░ somewhere around 7 to1 ░░░░░░░░ they support uh the ░░░░░░░░ that he made yesterday ░░░░░░░░ for this government shutdown ░░░░░░░░ end Now here s ░░░░░░░░ point If Democrats were ░░░░░░░░ fact to come back ░░░░░░░░ the table you said ░░░░░░░░ it ain t about ░░░░░░░░ it ain t about ░░░░░░░░ or Democrats I take ░░░░░░░░ point in theory but ░░░░░░░░ Democrats were to come ░░░░░░░░ to the table and ░░░░░░░░ they ve been demanding ░░░░░░░░ healthcare for all Americans ░░░░░░░░ you know gets pushed ░░░░░░░░ the side um a ░░░░░░░░ they have to fight ░░░░░░░░ a later time which ░░░░░░░░ may or may not ░░░░░░░░ to They may or ░░░░░░░░ not win because they ░░░░░░░░ t control anything in ░░░░░░░░ right now There d ░░░░░░░░ many people who d ░░░░░░░░ suffering uh if Democrats ░░░░░░░░ believe didn t win ░░░░░░░░ particular fight So it ░░░░░░░░ one way to one ░░░░░░░░ to look at it ░░░░░░░░ you said Everett and ░░░░░░░░ I hear your point ░░░░░░░░ way to look at ░░░░░░░░ is your union members ░░░░░░░░ t want to be ░░░░░░░░ as a pawn in ░░░░░░░░ fight I get that ░░░░░░░░ other way to look ░░░░░░░░ it is what about ░░░░░░░░ one for the team ░░░░░░░░ about you know standing ░░░░░░░░ standing firm for the ░░░░░░░░ good Does that not ░░░░░░░░ at all That of ░░░░░░░░ that resonate you you ░░░░░░░░ to understand you know ░░░░░░░░ I myself has gone ░░░░░░░░ periods of my life ░░░░░░░░ I didn t have ░░░░░░░░ insurance I understand you ░░░░░░░░ that is not the ░░░░░░░░ here right uh in ░░░░░░░░ opinion you know that ░░░░░░░░ an issue that we ░░░░░░░░ to address I m ░░░░░░░░ trying to downplay that ░░░░░░░░ all it is absolutely ░░░░░░░░ however it should not ░░░░░░░░ done holding federal employees ░░░░░░░░ that s my point ░░░░░░░░ need you know and ░░░░░░░░ don t care which ░░░░░░░░ it is No party ░░░░░░░░ the right to hold ░░░░░░░░ hostage while they negotiate ░░░░░░░░ It just it just ░░░░░░░░ t happen And and ░░░░░░░░ and the people that ░░░░░░░░ represent it shouldn t ░░░░░░░░ to them either Yeah ░░░░░░░░ gt You know because ░░░░░░░░ re not seeing this ░░░░░░░░ a partisan issue What ░░░░░░░░ re seeing is this ░░░░░░░░ know gt gt young ░░░░░░░░ single mothers don t ░░░░░░░░ a paycheck coming in ░░░░░░░░ But they got children ░░░░░░░░ s got to eat ░░░░░░░░ gt You know they ░░░░░░░░ seeing that they got ░░░░░░░░ mortgage that has to ░░░░░░░░ gt be paid Yeah ░░░░░░░░ gt They re seeing ░░░░░░░░ I got to go ░░░░░░░░ work gt gt but ░░░░░░░░ m not getting paid ░░░░░░░░ how do I get ░░░░░░░░ They got to get ░░░░░░░░ to go in the ░░░░░░░░ You know these are ░░░░░░░░ life issues that they ░░░░░░░░ facing every single day ░░░░░░░░ that s what they ░░░░░░░░ wanting me to address ░░░░░░░░ gt Let me ask ░░░░░░░░ a question right quick ░░░░░░░░ Um does your union ░░░░░░░░ candidates gt gt Sure ░░░░░░░░ gt Did you endorse ░░░░░░░░ the last election gt ░░░░░░░░ Sure we did gt ░░░░░░░░ Who did you endorse ░░░░░░░░ gt for president gt ░░░░░░░░ Yes gt gt I ░░░░░░░░ Kla Harris first I ░░░░░░░░ gt gt Joe Biden ░░░░░░░░ gt President Biden and ░░░░░░░░ when he dropped out ░░░░░░░░ endorsed Kla Harris and ░░░░░░░░ gt gt over Trump ░░░░░░░░ it gt gt Governor ░░░░░░░░ gt gt Okay Got ░░░░░░░░ Yes Okay So here ░░░░░░░░ and when we come ░░░░░░░░ in our remaining moments ░░░░░░░░ want to just make ░░░░░░░░ I was right about ░░░░░░░░ memory if my memory ░░░░░░░░ me correctly I thought ░░░░░░░░ they endorsed Klair this ░░░░░░░░ American federation of government ░░░░░░░░ which leads me straight ░░░░░░░░ the last question my ░░░░░░░░ question I want to ░░░░░░░░ if this union and ░░░░░░░░ many other unions have ░░░░░░░░ Democrats and supported Kla ░░░░░░░░ and Joe Biden prior ░░░░░░░░ in this last election ░░░░░░░░ does it say about ░░░░░░░░ Democratic base that one ░░░░░░░░ its strongest constituencies is ░░░░░░░░ saying We know you ░░░░░░░░ fighting for health care ░░░░░░░░ it s time for ░░░░░░░░ shutdown to end One ░░░░░░░░ the strongest constituency We ░░░░░░░░ the most loyal base ░░░░░░░░ the Democratic Party is ░░░░░░░░ Black folk We are ░░░░░░░░ most loyal base And ░░░░░░░░ also make up a ░░░░░░░░ of these union members ░░░░░░░░ We re union members ░░░░░░░░ re the most loyal ░░░░░░░░ But the Democratic Party ░░░░░░░░ t be anywhere near ░░░░░░░░ it is right now ░░░░░░░░ they still weren t ░░░░░░░░ on to not just ░░░░░░░░ support but union support ░░░░░░░░ here s a major ░░░░░░░░ that endorsed Kamla that ░░░░░░░░ Biden that is now ░░░░░░░░ to1 saying the shutdown ░░░░░░░░ gone on long enough ░░░░░░░░ government I get the ░░░░░░░░ they don t use ░░░░░░░░ a pawn But here ░░░░░░░░ what I m trying ░░░░░░░░ right quick If I ░░░░░░░░ rambling I m trying ░░░░░░░░ to I m trying ░░░░░░░░ juxtapose in my own ░░░░░░░░ what it means that ░░░░░░░░ union 7 to one ░░░░░░░░ reopen government deal with ░░░░░░░░ somewhere down the road ░░░░░░░░ to justapose that with ░░░░░░░░ speaking of seven the ░░░░░░░░ million people that we ░░░░░░░░ in
