Bob Ney: One thing you have to say about that lawyer [Albert Watkins, defending one of the 1/6 insurrectionists], he managed to offend three different groups in one statement.

Bob Ney: You can argue whether you need the commission or not. I think they could have set it up differently internally. It's bizarre to use the vote for the commission to determine if the people on 1/6 were tourists or insurrectionists.

Bob Ney: Steny Hoyer & I had put together a group to investigate what went wrong with ricin, anthrax, and 9/11. We wanted total transparency.

Bob Ney: If I were running the show, I'd have ended the filibuster 15 yrs ago; use a simple majority vote.

Bob Ney: You shouldn't take a 15-week rule in Mississippi & use that to overturn Roe vrs Wade.
Rick: It's a death by 1000 paper cuts. 15 weeks, then it'll be 12 weeks...

Rick: Do we really want to go back to the time of back alley abortions? Rich people are always going to get what they want, but it's the poor people who'll suffer.

Rick: I understand a lot of people got vaccinated recently after the OH lottery was announced.
Bob Ney: Some people suggested it's illegal; I think it's okay. If it vaccinates another 8% or 10% in Ohio, that's okay. I think we're about 62% vaccinated in the U.S.
@bobney

Bob Ney: The OH lottery for vaccinated people will continue for a few weeks.

Bob Ney: I'm visiting a friend in Denver; this is my first post-COVID flight. Yes, I wore a mask the entire flight except while eating. The Broncos have a big sign here proclaiming their love for The Rick Smith Show. <laughing>
