AOC gets called out by NPR host for claiming that Trump is weaponizing the justice department, while Democrats tried to jail Trump:
Steve Inskeep: "Some Republicans listening to this and thinking 'Actually wait a minute, you're the ones who are prosecuting us. You're the ones who are weaponizing the Justice Department."
Alexandria Ocasio Cortez: "In what way?"
Inskeep: "Putting Trump on trial, would be there example I suppose."

Impossible challenge: Talk to AOC without something going over her head. She would have genuinely asked:
'“But other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?”'
AOC defends helping illegals avoid ICE:
AOC doesn't realize that illegal immigration is a problem:

Batya Ungar-Sargon stuns Bill Maher into submission when talking about Trump's rationale on tariffs:
BUS: "The 70's the largest share of our GDP was in the middle class. Now the top 20% controls over 50% of the GDP.
That manufacturing is still being done: It's just being done in other countries."
Maher: "For wages we will not work for."
BUS: "That's what the tariffs are for. They are to make American workers more competitive in the global market.
Why are we accepting that there should be a race to the bottom?
China: What is its competitive advantage over us? They pay slave wages.
It's important that we have a stake in the manufacturing of the things that we need as a nation, so that when China goes to war against us we're not relying on them for steel and aluminum in order to fight them."
Maher: "At least that's an answer."

'At least that was an answer' An answer that the media has chose to conceal through their propaganda.

Kennedy reveals some dirt about the View host Joy Behar:
"Joy was a talking hemorrhoid in an Auburn wig. She was so ungracious and awful and she had a comedy writer writing her little lines during the break. She's not even funny."

Joy doesn't need writers, she's unlikeable enough on her own.

Bill Maher rips the Democrats for their hypocrisy and their lame attempts at resistance:
"He was shaking his cane at the president. Which I thought was an apt metaphor, a cane shaking for this Democrat party: Lame.
Democrats are fighting back in a way: They're tiring of all of this firing, furloughing, closing of these government departments, and they say:
'If you don't stop shutting down the government, we're going to shut down the government!'

Democrat response to Trump has been the equivalent of 'Old Man Yells at Cloud'

Adam Carolla's brilliant 'hot blonde' analogy to explain to Matt Gaetz the degradation of California:
Matt Gaetz: "I remember growing up in the 90s. You looked at LA as the place where the beautiful people went. Just seemed like a place every everybody wanted to be. And then you go now: It's just like wading through garbage. Do you think it's savable?"
Adam Carolla: "I always say California was like a hot blond from high school that just assume this thing would go on forever. And now she's in her mid 40s and the phone isn't ringing and guys aren't buying her drinks and sending them over to the end of the bar.
You know, it's not what it was. She has crow's feet and, a little belly and a C-section scar, and she she never got educated. She never worked at anything. She has no work ethic.
She she didn't do anything because LA was always like, where L.A., where else you gotta go? Other cities have to kind of work for it.
We in California and then especially LA just got by in our looks for so long. But eventually it catches up to you and you never spent one night studying.
LA doesn't really know how to do things. And like our representative city council like our mayor is where in Ghana doing, you know, wearing a ceremonial headdress and learning whatever dance they're learning because everything in LA is our mayor doesn't run Los Angeles.
Our mayor is a sort of ceremonial figurehead.
But we like the idea of a black woman who's running everything, even though she doesn't know how to run everything.
At some point everything burns to the ground. And then all the idiots who vote for these people look around and go, what's going on? How come we didn't have any infrastructure? How come we weren't prepared for this? We're prepared for this because you vote for idiots who don't her aren't interested in any of this stuff."

California run by Republicans: Paradise
California run by Democrats: Paradise lost

Bill Maher in a heated debate about trans with Pod Save America host where he warns Democrats that they will keep losing elections if they continue to die on that hill:
Maher: "You want you want to lose every election: Just keep coming down on the side of parents coming in second in a who gets to decide what goes on with my kid contest."

The fatal flaw of a Democrat: They would rather die and harm others around them than admit that they were wrong.
The conversation stemmed from this conversation on Real Time with Bill Maher where Bill asked Tim Ryan about various 'hills to die on' for Democrats
Sincerely hope the Democrats continue to listen to those like Lovett and Crockett, they'll never win again
How this argument was framed merely 25 years ago:

Adam Carolla narrates shocking drone footage showcasing the aftermath of the LA wildfires on PCH. Remarkably, no progress has been made in the cleanup effort:
"Zero attempts at cleaning. Now over a month. No cleanup attempt. No official gov website you can go to for any kind of timeline for when the power is going to be on.
'When can you get back to your place?'
The answer is: No goddamn idea."

Progressives = no progress in real life
Carolla has been on a tear since the LA fires:
