Lol! They both lied so much on that committee...I understand they are likely to be charged should Trump win. Dizzy lizzy has hated the Trumps for years. Kinze the clown is a joke.
Yeah, he does actually--or as his jawline has practically disappeared from his endless McD's burgers, he actually looks more and more like a Komodo Dragon. That really matches his personality perfectly!
Adam, thank you for your courage and service to this country. Standing with Biden! Fed up with corporate media and elected officials who are attacking him!
yes they are ruining things . we were all behind him and pumped up and Now . well if they convince him to step down you will have half of Democrats so ticked off they might give up and NOt vote. NOt what we need. we need them to stand up and yell about all he has and is doing for our country. i am ridin with Biden. ! lets show trump the biggest slap down at election time.
So Adam says that if Trump is smarter, he could win easily. Shouldn't Democrats run as though they were facing a smart Trump? What happens when Trump is gone and replaced by a smarter fascist?
People need to realize that in a realm of mass deportations, we will ALL be constantly required to show our own papers to prove we are ok and each time we must hope that our papers are “in order.”
@@subobing3551 Exactly. Imagine being born in Kansas and being asked for papers at a traffic stop then being told to get in a van because “Your papers are not in order.”
Adam, the difference between the 2 parties on conspiracy theories is the elected Democrats aren’t speaking to large groups of people spewing crazy theories and laughing at Trump like elected Republicans did when Nancy Pelosi’s husband was attacked. The 2 parties are not the same
Sure. If anyone is, he'd be in that category. But speaking in superlatives like this is counter-productive and leads to an imbalanced perspective. Look, no one is a hero if he is alive at the end of the action. Brave, sure. I have done things that were heroic. We probably all have, to one degree or another. A great American is just an American who did the right thing. Integrity does not make one great...it is the baseline of what we should expect from ourselves.
I have a friend who lives in a rural area, 2 hours outside of London, who sent me a message asking me “why are these people wearing maxi pads on their ears at that Republican convention?” 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
Regarding the “mass deportation” plan of the RNC, I think we have a severe lack of generational memory resources. My grandfather was a farmer, & his neighbor was Mr Miakawa, who was of Japanese heritage. I was only 6, but remember being horrified by his tales of being taken, as a child, to the WW2 concentration camps that were established in the USA. His family completely lost all of their land, their homes, & all belongings. Hw was a US citizen, interned for 3 of his childhood.
This!! George Takei has a great post about his memories of being pulled from his home as a child. The stories are just heartbreaking. We, collectively, don't remember that. It has been pushed under the dirt and forgotten.
The two colors are brought to you by the very people behind the dividing and conquering of the country! Where do you think these colors came from, and when?? We used to cheer for the red, white, and blue!
I'm a pro-Democracy, progressive, Canadian-Californian, law and politics nerd, female. Congressman Kinzinger, thank you (and your phenomenal colleagues) for your service in the J6 Committee hearings. Your courage is formidable. Tim Miller, I thank you for all your media work, for showing up, for helping people understand. But Tim - "the skirt was a little too short" ? 🤔👿 Women don't get assaulted/raped because they "tempt" with a short skirt, Tim. please try harder.
You missed the point of Tim saying that. He meant in the same way that a woman might be blamed (ridiculously) for her own "invasion" by wearing a skirt that's too short, some people are blaming Ukraine for being too openly "western" in their society and "enticing" Putin to invade them.
Dudes! JD scares the shit outta me, because he has already said that he would do what Mike Pence wouldn’t when it comes to accepting alternate slates of electors “ if there are questions about the legitimacy of an election.” That could literally mean undoing a Democratic victory in 2028 if Trump wins in 2024.
Where is Liz now ? Where are all of the republicans that have left, retired, or talk about another Conservative Party ? WHERE ARE THEY ? We need everyone on deck NOW ! I do appreciate everything you and Liz did you are heroes .
I heard someone say at the GOP party that people coming in there without being a trumper is life threatening for the families etc. Look what they did to others to hurt them ,like the 2 poll ladies that Guiliani kept telling lies about.
Mr Kinzinger, you are such an inspiration to me! I admire you and your dedication to your party and the values and morals you have! You are a true patriot and I hold you in high esteem! God Bless!
As a democrat I have to say I’m ashamed that Adam Kinzinger, Michael Steele and so many other True Republicans have voiced their full support for Joe Biden while my party is stabbing him in the back. 😢
Joe gets no momentum because of all this talk about his age. I would vote for him iff he died a day after inauguration 2025. Cuz Trump is going to destroy our lives!
The votes of loyal followers, like yourself, won't get Joe across the line. It's independent voters who will decide the election, and Joe's not winning their hearts.
As a woman who was born when Truman was president and raised in rural West TX, there is something you all are missing. There are old Democrats, mostly men, who will hesitate or not vote at all for a woman. I saw this personally when my “yellow dog” grandfather, an elected official himself, agonized over whether or to vote for Ann Richards. He also agonized over my decision to run for school board that made me the first woman to serve in that capacity. This was a long time ago, but I hear the the same rumblings regarding Kamala. These people are old and may not live to vote, but my fear is, although they will never vote Republican, is there is a chance they might leave the box blank. I, a yellow dog myself, would love to see a woman president in my lifetime but the chances of that are getting very low. Love your podcast. Keep up the good work!
I'd like to see a woman president, too,but I don't think either party would ever vote on in. There's too many on both sides who don't take women seriously and don't think a woman can do the job. It's just the mindset.
Thanks for pointing that out because I have long wondered why some democrats aren't thinking about country over party. I just figured they were conservative democrats; I didn't think they were just good old boys. Congrats on being the first woman on the school board. I love it when women win for all women.
In 2016, Hillary lost Wisconsin. Many say it was because she took the state for granted, but it was more than that. The NYTs did a follow up story about Milwaukee Dem voters the following week: if I remember correctly, turn out was down 40% from Obama in 2012. When interviewed as to why they did not vote, many Milwaukee folk (and black men) admitted they weren't down with Trump, but they also did not want a female President in our country. That article stuck in my head all these years later, and I really think having Kamala replace Joe is a bad idea. However, when he wins, and if his health declines, she can take over and run the country. It's sad to admit, but the reality of our misogynistic society is many voters don't see women as leaders. Btw, Bernie Sanders beat Hillary in the Wisconsin Democratic Primary, and Ted Cruz beat Trump in the Republican Primary of 2016.
The only time Canada has had a woman Prime Minister was when the elected man stepped down. She was not reelected. I know you want her but she'll have to inherit it and as incumbent you can hope she survives the primary in 2028.
@@trudycolborne2371 It will be a cold day in hell when Canadians elect a woman as Prime Minister. Thankfully, we do live north of the US and it may come sooner than we think but probably not. 🤣
I watched my neighbor who is a farmer have his whole extended family out picking their asparagus fields when trump was elected last time….after two wks they just had to plow the asparagus under as the family had to go to their real jobs and couldn’t keep helping out….this is because the migrants that came every yr were not allowed to come here thanks to trump.. it costs the neighbors millions of dollars in losses…..they have hundreds of acres in asparagus….that whole season was lost for the farmer…..what a shame
Gaetz is terrified. Another rich kid who isn't used to not having his own way. Gaetz sounded drunk at the 'convention' which makes sense, given his history.
The difference between the two parties with regard to the conspiracies is that main stream Republicans are proposing these theories, while main stream democrats (as a whole) aren't.
TRUMP MAGA AND 2025 WILL TURN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA INTO A 3RD WORLD COUNTRY SO IF YOU LIKE YOUR FREEDOM VOTE BLUE DOWN THE BALLOT TRUMP ALREADY SAID HE IS GONNA TAKE AWAY ELECTIONS SO WHAT DO YOU THINK IS GONNA HAPPEN? WE WILL BE A COMMUNIST COUNTRY WISE UP PEOPLE OF AMERICA VOTE BLUE DOWN THE BALLOT WISCONSIN AND AMERICA FOR OUR FREEDOM AND WOMEN'S RIGHTS AND OUR LIVES
Yeah I'm really sick of the way that President Joe Biden is getting treated he has done a lot in the 4 years to better America and he has a fierce devotion for the United States Constitution and he has and administration in place that if something were to happen to President Joe Biden they are not going to mess a step or a beat and this is all way better than anything Donald Trump or the mega Republicans have to offer with their project 2025..... Somewhere in my mind I keep thinking that the fear the Democrats have because of project 2025 they become terrified that Joe biden's age will effectively cause him to lose but because there is so much to lose if Trump wins but we must remember that we have to get up and stand together cuz if we stand together there's nothing that we cannot achieve as Americans......... Nobody wants project 2025 to take effect cuz it's effectively a blueprint for authoritaryism and it's it is totally on American
I have never been a Republican but I can say during the committee hearings. I had so much respect for adam and liz. I think it took so much courage and strength for them to stand up against their own party and stand for the american people the constitution and the law.
This is not about ego. This is existential. Yeah, it is. And I 🇫🇮 cant vote on the matter. Half of the world is holding their breath to see will we have another Adolf or Josip or Benito. Pretty please Americans. Dont do what Europe did in the 1930s.
Yup. I stand for democracy. I am living overseas. I changed my residency to a purple state after I held my nose and voted for Clinton after the bs the DNC pulled in 2016 and my vote didn’t count anyway. I’m not putting in the effort to vote again if the DNC replaced the candidate we elected. I know I’m not the only one. These people are not taking into consideration people like me AND all the folks who didn’t vote or voted third party in 2016. They will definitely lose if they remove Biden.
Could have been right after he bought it that he moved it there. I don't know how you would hide a ladder at home. I would have assumed the place would be monitored or at the very least cameras set up and live monitored before a president or ex-president will be there .
It isn't MOST of the "Democrats" with all the conspiracy theory crap. Most if us arr calling out people posting that crap. I do want the medical report.
I agree absolutely. A lot of these ex Republicans way way way stretch the use of the word "left." First of all, the Democratic party isn't the left. When one goes to the actual left, who often aren't at all fond of the democratic party, one starts finding conspiracy theories. The Republican party is right wing, far right, and extreme right. The Democratic party includes right of center, center, liberal, left of center, progressive left, and Sanders left. Then there's the actual left, but they're largely fringe. Whereas far right and extreme right are mainstream in the Republican party. I question the intellectual integrity of anyone who is supposed to have any expertise in politics using terms such as Democrat, liberal, and left, as if they're somehow synonymous.
@@lonpollard902 I was a Republican! I left the party in 2015 officially...but when the whole "Tea.Party" thing started under Obama, I checked out. And since, I have crept, incrementally further left.
I admired him and the world needs more people like him. He is a true patriot and defending his country. God bless to those who talk the truth and standing up for justice and peace.
@@carolinemaybe How about the young girl he had sex with? Or the on going investigation into that? How about asking McCarthy to get them to stop investigating?
We will lose women like me and black voters if its anyone, but Kamala Harris. None of us want Trump, but a lot of Democrats and more Independents are fed up with the disloyalty, confusion, division and blowing off our votes.
I have 3 Biden signs in my yard right now, but I'ill vote for whoever the Democrats come up with, if it isn't Biden. I mean, the Republican alternative is simply UNTHINKABLE! But I would feel very secure with Kamala. At this point, we need the tension to end.
Its better to vote for all of the Democrats all the way down the ticket. This election isn't about the people. Its about not wanting to slide into autocracy for us here in the United States and all of the democracies around the world. This is a serious crossroads election. We must not lose!
Along with Gaetz’s weird face work, maybe you guys are too gentlemanly to say so, but Guilfoyle looks monstrous too. What the heck has she had injected and knifed?!
Mr. Adam Kinzinger, it is always so great to see you! I didn't quite catch the name of the organization you founded; is it Country First? I'll check it out and contribute. We need _actual_ tough guys like you, not the faux-tough, wanna-be Rat Pack Cool but too-lame losers we're all struggling against. I'm delighted to hear you now have a position at the Bulwark. We're all with you, man! 😊 👍 💙
@@rachelerynkalish2207 Thank you, thank you, I'll join in just a few minutes! I'm thrilled. Thanks so much for taking the time to write to me, to all of us. 🤗 😊 👍 💙
@@rachelerynkalish2207 Rachel, you've made me really happy. I'll spread the word to friends, family, and even a few Republican friends. They're Never Trumpers and probably love Mr. Kinzinger already, but aren't politics junkies like me.
As a nurse, I doubt Trump's on narcotics still, granted he's not going to be treated.as we would be, but.doctors don't give out narcotics as freely as they did in the past. Very likely they gave Trump 2-3 days of Vicodin and that's it.
As a democrat... to not have this discussion or them speaking g now because of a bad performance.... this is what dems do.... freak out instead to be steadfast. Look what he's done!! My GOD! It's Humbert Humphrey all over when it should of been McCarthy or Mc Govern
Matt Gaetz hit himself with an ugly stick...you have to wonder what he was doing with Rittenhouse and was he orange or wearing any makeup, did he bring ammunition and gun!! Thanks Tim!!
With DJT, it's always ego. Although it's also hard for most of us to imagine what connections Trump's feeble, dying neurons are making in his bizarre rally speeches. We are lucky to have Dr. Mary Trump, a clinical psychologist and his niece, who interprets many of them for us and sheds light on the psychology of his followers.
We voted for Biden before seeing his significant cognitive decline. You can’t tell me after seeing President Biden at the debate, it didn’t give you serious concern about his ability to run the country
@@01SaltyWitch Well, not everyone was able to vote~ some states skipped primary. And Dems refused to consider other candidates by failing to offer voters even a single debate. So no, you can’t really claim that Biden won via the vote.
Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger probably would have gotten my vote, and I am a liberal. Cannot fight truth. Thank you both for your service to our country
I think Harris is great, but, but some black women would love to vote for her and many black women would dread her being shredded in the media for months and months
Is botox what happened to Sarah Huckabee Sanders too? My words when I saw her at the thing was "Do plastic surgeons use jack hammers now?" She had some major work done!
@@barbellebracht7553 Thanks. I didn't know that. However, contracting and/or recovering from an awful disease doesn't exonerate anyone for being a liar for hire or any other moral, ethical, or legal misdeed. I suspect that her life has had many challenges. Me too and most likely you. Interesting that all the plastic surgery at the RNC was the least offensive dishonesty there. I don't like insulting others, but people who repeatedly say and do as many insensitive and harmful things to others as she does are a challenge.
Would really like to see media STOP using the word ‘weaponize’ - let’s call it what it actually is: ABUSE OF POWER. I think everyday people tune out ‘weaponization’ but every American recognizes abuse of power. Please consider, Tim. Words matter because meaning matters. And thanks to you and Adam K
Thank you, Adam for the reasonable idea that the shot wasnt taken because they werent sure whether he was their guy or not. Quite possible since it sounds like local law enforcement was in the building.
Talked to my Politics Professor neighbor last week, who’s a lifetime Republican voter, about putting Harris at the top of the ticket & Kinzinger as VP. I wondered if a moderate Republican & man of his integrity + Kamala could be a possible path forward…?
If the traitor lost part of his ear - the entire ear would be red and swollen and painful. Even the uninjured part would look like a rotten tomato. There is no sign of bruising or redness in the part of the ear that shows. No sign of inflammation. None.
Just because he never saw it doesn't mean it didn't occur. Bullies are cowards so would do it covertly. My daughter had a bully who would come up in back of her at her locker and say hateful stuff,then walk off. No teacher saw it or heard it.
He did say he would sit alone at lunch looking at his phone. That sounds lonely to me. Another thing is how much did you really tell your high school counselor???
Adam, thank you for pointing out that we don't have "citizen cards." And thank you both for taking a minute to talk about what mass deportations would look like. This should be more of a campaign issue because I guarantee that no Americans have really thought aboug this.
Please Adam run for president!!! The USA needs someone like you to run our country!!! I would love to meet you someday. Thank you for your service and your honesty. Praying for you and yours.
Uuuuum so you want to see cuts to Social Services and Medicaid? No two ways about it Liz, Mitt and Adam behaved with integrity after the Insurrection but during their time in the Senate and Congress they voted with Trump most of the time. The Republican Party that was, was very right wing. They tend not to support environmental protection. They tend to support big buisness. They tend not to support childhood education. So unless these are also your values you might just want to respect and appreciate the fact that Adam has a level below which he will not go. If you feel that you share a more Republican view of where America should go then you could vote for these people in good conscience. Take a look at Ron DeSantis' policies in Florida if you want to see what a right wing agenda looks like in action.
