Justin Fairfax was the Lieutenant Governor Under Governor

β€œRalph Northerm, and if you recall, I mean, he made a lot of news as”

Lieutenant Governor because he faced two separate sexual assault allegations with he denied and called a smear campaign, and at the time, recall that Governor Northerm was under fire after a photo of him in college. It's surface, he was dressed in black face, he said it was a costume where he was portraying Michael Jackson.

He was dressed in the clan uniform, he was, he said, he invited a facial analysis people to come in to confirm that that wasn't him in black face, which means that it could only have been him in the clan uniform. But when you're a Democrat, that just gets washed away because the news media doesn't even remember it.

And you know, it happened, there was something about black face. The clan uniform, and it started with two sexual assault claims, filed against the then Lieutenant Governor, and when you're a Democrat, you know, and then you just deny it, you go, it's like page two of the Democrat Party playbook. What happens when I'm found out as a sexual predator, which invariably happens with,

β€œI think every elected Democrat, doesn't it?”

Is that every elected Democrat, Durn near? Madness, these, these people. Yesterday was IRS day, it was tax day. It was April 15th, and that's not a good gunner. There was like, there's some day truly like December 25th, that's great, July 4th.

And then, you know, come on, tax day, April 15th, that's no good, not good. I let's go to, let's see, let's go to the telephones, let's go to Patrick, calling from Florida, where they don't pay state income taxes, which is real nice. Whereas in Washington, D.C., we do, I think it's like 92% of your adjusted gross income or something.

Patrick, you're on the Chris Plancheau. Well, I thank you, Chris.

I appreciate the opportunity, and it's always great to talk to you.

It's even better to listen to you on the show. I love your humor. Thank you. Well, I don't pay state sale to that, I don't pay state income tax, but I made up for my federal and so my average, I'm not a rich man, I was wiped out by the Dodd-Frank

Bill in 2012, lost everything I answered it over, still haven't gotten to that place where I was. Wow. Rock Obama for signing man into the law. Wow.

See, the interesting about the Dodd-Frank Bill, what's interesting about that is the BBC, which is not a conservative bastion, they once published an article that, and they, they estimated that, between Great Britain and America, 10,000 people, committed suicide because the financial distress that the Dodd-Frank Bill put out. Mm.

That's right. The smartest president in the world, Barack Obama. Yeah. Well, he doesn't like people. Yeah, he's not a people person.

And, in fact, one of his, who was it, Michael, that his staffer, who said that she was a maze to learn that Barack Obama just doesn't like people. Doesn't like people. And she said, "It amazed me. It's like being billgates and not liking computers." She said about Barack Obama, "You just don't like people." And the left, they don't like people. And they kill people

β€œwith great enthusiasm. Don't they, Patrick? Oh, is New York to do with you? New York to do with you?”

Neurotand and who you look worked for him. - Yeah, a point on that, you know, if, you know, I studied economics in college and comes with statistics, as part of the package. And the last 11 assassination attempts were all Democrats.

So the idea that it's coming out of both sides just isn't true. - Right. - If it were coming out of both sides, and you got 11 straight, it's like flipping a coin and coming up with a head 11 times,

which is not possible.

It's one of the billion, the Democratic Party

does have a monopoly on violence. That's, they made that abundantly clear. And they're willing to use it at any point. My point today of my call today was the taxes. I had 22% tax rate.

I'm not making a bunch of money. And my last 25% of my income was taxed at 33%. So you begin to wonder, where's this money going? And when you looked at 2005, the federal government, they spent $2.5 trillion in 2005.

In 2025, we spent $7.2 trillion. Now I'd ask anybody, Republican, Democrat, conservative liberal, what are we getting for $7.2 trillion?

Since 2005, we have spent 90 trillion

dollars.

Does our country look like we just spent 90 trillion

dollars? And to put that into perspective, how much 90 trillion dollars is? If you just collected all that money and gave it randomly to individuals, you would have been able to make

one and four Americans a millionaire. So you count one, two, three people in your office, four, you'd be a millionaire. And what have we gotten for 90 trillion dollars? I asked my brother who's very high-hard liberal, great person,

love him to death. I said, you know, since 2005, Dave, what has gotten better in our country? Education's worse, homelessness is worse. 22 veterans are killing themselves every day.

The infrastructure is a mess. Our environment's worse. What have we gotten better? The only thing I could come up with is as we've got the best military

than the history of the world times a thousand. There's no doubt about that.

β€œThat seems to be the only thing that is escalating.”

All of the technological gains that we've had since 2005 are going to just poison the brains of our youth and middle-aged people. It's, I just can't, I can't point anything that after spending 90 trillion dollars in, yeah,

we fix that. I mean, can you? - No, I really can't. And you're right about the military. We put a spacecraft with four people in and around the moon,

which, you know, we did in the 1970s as well. And even I think around the moon before 1970 hit. And now we're getting back to the glory days of the 1970s of a half century ago going around the moon. But you're right.

And I've never seen that 90 trillion dollar figure,

but that's an amazing figure. And you said we spent 2.5, the government spent 2.5 trillion in 2005. And then you said then suddenly we were spending 7.2 trillion a year by what year was that?

- 2025, that was last year. - 2025, we're spending 7.2 trillion. And we spent 90, we're also 37, 38 trillion dollars in debt,

β€œPatrick has a nation and I like to point this out”

because it's a fun and it makes point that if we started paying off the national debt at a dollar a second right now and we're not. We're adding to it. I had about that right.

If we started paying it off at a dollar a second, it would take us more than one million years to pay it off. - Yeah, it's outrageous. And that's why one of the reasons, you know, I voted for Trump three times,

but I was not happy with one big, beautiful bill. That was a big increase in spending again still. - Yeah. - I mean at some point, we talk about how much fun it is to freeze the terrorist assets.

And you're right, it is fun. You know, they get their ATM card out and they go, "I'm gonna go buy some bombs today." So I get to get some cash and they go to the machine and it says, "Can't get any funds out."

Fun's not available. That's a good joke. That's the fun one. - No bonds for you. - No bonds for you.

- Yeah, no bonds for you today. How about, you know, we freeze the spending on the federal government.

β€œI'm not saying you have to cut spending.”

Just freeze it. Just say, "Look, we spent $7.2 trillion last year." That's all you get for the next 10 years, $7.3 trillion dollars. And who's gonna argue that that's not enough money?

- Of course. - Of course. - Born. (laughs) - Well, and Tokyo had a show show show,

I make that argument. - Do you know how much was added to the national debt last year? - That I don't, I don't have that statistic. - Yeah, yeah. - Yeah.

- Yeah, I don't know. I don't know off the top of my head. I should know off the top of my head, but I do not know off the top of my head. Well, that's remarkable stuff.

I gotta tell you, Michael, Percy and I since we're talking about taxes and all that good stuff. Michael Percy and I were talking, we're talking yesterday, it's tax day, and we wrapped up the radio show, it's tax day.

So Michael was like, "We haven't done our taxes yet." I was kind of, I didn't want it to sound like bragging, but it was a little bit, it sounded a little bragging. That we had finished our taxes this year, so long ago, that we already got a refund check back.

But then I explained for the last two years, we got the refund checks about three weeks ago, because they withheld and withheld and didn't, they're looking, and they said it were not being audited, but we're not getting a refund.

And we finally got our refunds for 2024 and 2023,

a matter of weeks ago, but we got our tax refunds for this year's taxes a couple of weeks ago too. And that's good, but we were talking to Michael. Michael and I were talking about yesterday, and he said, "Yeah, we gotta go home and do our taxes.

"He's had to do their taxes yesterday afternoon." And they did their taxes yesterday afternoon, and Michael brought in a piece of paper today to tell me, that in, for his 2024 taxes, his tax refund was 1,325 dollars,

but yesterday they did their taxes,

Instead of 1,300 dollars,

their refund is gonna be 5,720 dollars,

5,720 dollars, which is a lot more money, and that's because of Trump's tax policies, right? - Right, well, and here's the myth that's out there. They Trump's tax policies are also special interest groups, it's just that we don't call family special interest groups,

but they are. I'm a single person, I have been all my life. I don't have any children, so here's how the scenario goes. I pay more taxes than the gentleman that sits next, I mean, as three kids, you know, I want an equitable tax.

So he's paying less taxes than I do. That's an addition of the fact that he doesn't come in till noon on Saturdays when I come in at nine, because these kids have softball games. Of course, we wouldn't want to miss a softball game.

And in addition, he's sick a lot more than anybody else, because children just bring home stuff from school and wherever you. And he gets sick a lot, and he's got to stay home for kids. So I work at the time, I pay more in taxes,

β€œand how is this an equitable situation for somebody like myself?”

The idea of lowering taxes is great, but it really has got to be, you got to stop spending, so that we don't have to tax people. Look at how crazy they went up and lost, and when there's a stamp tax, they lost their minds.

That's where the tea party came from, you know, but they just keep stacking up these taxes, and my taxes went up from last year. And you know, I spent, I put another $400 a month in to try and divert that tax bill,

and I still had a tax bill yesterday. Had to write a check, have it immediately withdrawn from my funds. You know, I really think to show you to eliminate any tax refunds that they should be paid out quarterly or not, or have to adjust their W2 to reflect that they're getting money back,

because I think that when you get money back in taxes, and they go, oh, and a tax date, it's great. I'm getting the refund. - Right. - Well, you're not really getting a refund.

You're just getting your money. - Yeah, that's right, yeah.

Yeah, it was your money in the first place.

They've been borrowing an interest free and using it for whatever,

β€œI was praying around to all too many left-wing institutions”

that have been set up by the left-wingers in the country to be funded in perpetuity, and they all too often become very wealthy off of these. These scams that the Democrats set up. - Oh, yeah, it's a nut and shell game.

They just run it through enough entities where they can't get traced back to them, and it winds up in their campaign. And most people don't know it, but I believe it's still the case is,

is they get to keep their campaign money when they retire, which would be millions of dollars. - Yeah, I mean, millions of dollars. - And Elizabeth warns up there saying that we should not tax people's assets.

Like, well, you know, not everybody had the luxury of having a mother in the Senate. They could set up a banking call the Federal Reserve, call the members of the Federal Reserve, open market committee and have them sit on your daughter's board

for her little adventure. You know, we're not all that lucky. We don't have that type of privilege. So it's terrible. And when you get taxes back that you get your money back,

it puts a positive light on the whole tax scheme that's going on up there.

β€œAnd I think you should eliminate that and say no,”

just stop taking more than you're supposed to. But that's typical government overreach. And you know, if you go back to Alexander Hamilton, he was a proponent of the big Federalists. The Federalists wanted a big strong government.

And, you know, it does serve as purpose in some cases, but we've exceeded that by far. And the amount of spending that's going on through the Federal government, that's just, it's just not doing anything.

It's innocuous and it just doesn't do anything for the society, for, you know, the communities, for the people. Well, what's, you know, spending that's the lining pockets. - The Democrats are looking for new ways

to tax people at higher rates. And the communist who's a G-Hadi mayor of New York City that the Democrats elected Zoran Kwame, mom, Dani. He went and stood in front of a tall condo building in New York City and pointed at it and explained to how

he's going to tax the hell out of the people that own those. On my ran for mayor, said I was going to tax the rich. Well, today, we're taxing it. I'm thrilled to announce who secured a Pieda-Tare tax.

The first in New York City.

- The Pieda-Tare tax. - The Pieda-Tare tax. - The Pieda-Tare tax. - The Pieda-Tare tax. - The Pieda-Tare tax.

- The Pieda-Tare tax. - The Pieda-Tare tax. - The Pieda-Tare tax. - The Pieda-Tare tax. - The Pieda-Tare tax.

- The Pieda-Tare tax. - The Pieda-Tare tax. - The Pieda-Tare tax. - The Pieda-Tare tax. - The Pieda-Tare tax.

- The Pieda-Tare tax. - The Pieda-Tare tax. - The Pieda-Tare tax. - The Pieda-Tare tax. - The Pieda-Tare tax.

- The Pieda-Tare tax. - The Pieda-Tare tax. - The Pieda-Tare tax. - The Pieda-Tare tax.

- The Pieda-Tare tax.

- The Pieda-Tare tax. - The Pieda-Tare tax. - The Pieda-Tare tax. - The Pieda-Tare tax. - The Pieda-Tare tax.

- The Pieda-Tare tax.

β€œ- The Pieda-Tare tax is on the property padric,”

but now he's going to add a Pieda-Tare tax and stick it to Mr. Charlie. Stick it to the man because they don't live full time

and they had 238 million dollar condo.

Must be really nice. I'm thinking. But he also pays property taxes every year on 238 million dollar condo that he owns. - My question is who's he hurting?

- Right. - We're only saying he's hurting people. - Right, right, right. - Well, I think with Mandani, I used to say back in the day when I was younger,

I said, "Well, you know what? "You get what you're vote for." - Yeah. - Now, because they're voting for such ridiculous things I go, "You know what?

"Like, I'm from Minnesota." I tell them, I go, "You know what? "You deserve what you vote for." - Yeah.

- And now that these liberal baschians

are running out of other people's money to spend, you could do an entire show on the amount of taxes that Minnesota is leveraging against their people to afford whatever they're doing, which is a huge amount of it's fraud,

but they're looking at taxing every way they possibly can in very high dollar amounts. Well, tax property tax, I mean, they are going to the hilt to tax their taxor people. And they're already in the top 10 heavily tax days.

- Well, Democrats are just looking for new ways to steal more money from the American people to fund their demented fantasies and usually line their own pockets as you also mentioned, Patrick.

Patrick, a great call, thank you for the call. Yesterday was tax day, Florida. You know, you even pay state income taxes and still. You know, our government is really out of control. We should, well, maybe we should elect somebody

that wants to do something about it. - Happy tax day, New York. (upbeat music) - Hey there, I'm Paula Pan. I help people make the smartest money decisions possible.

You're not ever worried about your salary. You need enough to make sure that you darned in a bad financial position. Once you have that, your salary becomes moot. What matters from that point forward?

Upside games. Any type of ownership stake or ownership potential, that's the money.

β€œRemember, you can afford anything, just not everything.”

- Afford anything. Follow and listen on your favorite platform. (upbeat music) - The big liar, governor of Virginia, that lighter way into the governor's mansion.

She's a Democrat. She signed a law earlier this week that decriminalizes suicide. They're inciting suicide. You think Justin Fairfax was in on this?

Did he know anything about this? Did he criminalize murder? Or are they gonna do that in the next bill? Yeah, Virginia governor Abigail Scamberger, approved a bill on Monday night

that decriminalizes suicide, abolishing these centuries old common law crime status. The timing couldn't be better for Justin Fairfax, I guess, for the sister and husband of Fairfax County Firefighter Nicole Mittendorf,

who took her own life a decade ago. Does she come back to life now? Now that it's a thing. But she also is banning guns. She's banning guns and legalizing suicide.

It's almost like she's a Democrat. They love death more than we love life. They're not on our side. In Canada, they're putting people to sleep. (upbeat music)

Yeah, so the Democrats, they're always making everything

better vote for Democrats. They'll promote suicide. The Democrats in Virginia, they won an Abigail Scamberger ran on all kinds of things that she was lying about.

She sounded perfectly reasonable for a Democrat

β€œand moderate, remember that word, moderate, moderate”

and Democrat are two words that don't go together well at all, not at all. That's amazing stuff. But here she is signing a bill that legalizes decriminalizes suicide.

And they've got an example of a terrible and a sad story of a woman that committed suicide 10 years ago. And it's sad story. They say, yeah, but then what is the lady said? Oh, people were telling me that my sister broke the law

when she committed suicide. That's hardly a relevant point in the context of what we're discussing here. But Virginia Governor, Abigail Spamberger, proved to bill Monday night that decriminalized suicide,

abolishing the centuries, old common law, crime, status.

The timing couldn't be better for the sister and husband

of Fairfax County Firefighter Nicole Mittendorf who took her own life a decade ago.

β€œThis week marks 10 years since we realized”

that Nicole was missing when she didn't show up for work. Jennifer Clarity Schalmers, Mittendorf's sister, said, a week later, we found her in Shenandoah National Park in this terrible and tragic and said, Mittendorf's body was found April 21st, 2016

after an intense search in Shenandoah National Park, beautiful place eight days after she was last heard from. Now, it's hard to believe it's been 10 years Nicole's husband, Steve Mittendorf, said, times deceptive, and it's in some regard.

It feels like it was yesterday, in other ways. It feels like a lifetime ago. Certainly, understand that. Speaking with WTOP on Tuesday morning, Schalmers said that Steve expressed relief,

that Spanberger, Spanberger, approved the bill to abolish the common law crime status of suicide,

even though there has never been a statutory prescribed

punishment, would be kind of redundant to admit. And hey, this person committed suicide.

β€œAnd the Democrats are thinking, how can we punish them?”

You know, that's a pretty demented thing. Suicide will no longer be a criminal act in Virginia. Schalmers said, it will go into effect in July of next year. Oh, well, that means that Justin Fairfax is not covered this. By this, the bill requires the Bureau of Insurance

of the State Corporation Commission to review the effect and implication of abolishing the common law crime of suicide on insurance throughout the commonwealth and submit its findings. And any recommendations by November 1st, 2026.

Now, that's fascinating, but it's a WTOP's to it's-- I'd say it's quite poorly written. I'd say it's quite poorly written. All things a little bit nonsensical, not well-written. But any case, she did that.

And at the same time, while legalizing suicide, banning guns, banning guns, because they makes stuff up and they don't understand firearms at all. And I think a semi-automatic pistol is is really just a machine gun.

And so they've got to ban everything

β€œbecause they don't know what's going on.”

They're mental dwarves, honestly. Yeah. And that's a Democrats and Mom Donnie. Oh, yeah.

Some guys got a $238 million condo in New York.

And he doesn't live there full time. Of course not. He's got a $238 million condo. I'm guessing he's got other places to be as well. But we're going to tax that hell out of him.

No, he's just going to sell the condo or not pay the taxes. He's going to leave-- everybody should leave New York. The Gihad has taken over the mid-Evilists who have taken over.

And the left loves it because mental-- severely mental. All right, let's see. Let's go back to the telephones, Michael. Let's go to Gene calling from Gainesville, Virginia.

Gene, you're on the Chris Plant Show. My Chris, can you hear me? Yes, ma'am, I can. I'm going to wild since I've seen you, and Chris, on the cruise in 2014, unforgettable Riviera cruise.

I'm standing. York, yeah, it was wonderful. And I'll tell you what impressed me the most. One is that you thank every person who served you, even if it was just to get your next your spoon or whatever.

And you stood up for 20 or 25 minutes and without notes, without a pause, without stumbling, you gave us a state of the union according to your take on things.

And it was impeccable and just incredible.

And I thought, boy, this guy's smart. Oh, wow, that's a very nice of you to say. I don't remember doing that. I should really be president, shouldn't I? Yeah.

Yeah. Only kidding. Yeah, well, nobody would want that. People who would just-- well, anyway, speaking about presidents--

yes. I wanted to ask you. I'm going to jump to the porter for so long, et cetera. I'm beginning to have my doubts about his-- I used to think it was his handlers.

You know, in the first administration, I just thought nobody could rain him in. But now I'm just wondering if he's going off the rails for some other physical reason, mental reason. But that picture of him as Jesus Christ next to Leo,

Pope Leo, that he posted and then took off

his toothbrush, social, or whatever.

What do you make of that? I'm really struggling. Yeah, you're not alone. That's been the topic of conversation. And in a number of discussions

I've had with people in the last week, or whenever that picture came out, that was pretty wacky. I've got to say the Jesus picture that is you're not-- you're not-- Jesus, you're not a deity.

β€œI believe that to Barack Obama and the Democrats,”

and picking the fight with the Pope, as well. I thought, and I've talked about it a little bit here, and I've talked about it a bit on Newsmax, as well. I don't think the president looked-- I've voted for President Trump, obviously, three times,

and he's a riot, and he's a hoot, and I get it when he's joking, and he's making fun of people around him. And I've got to say, Gene, I've had this conversation a couple of times in the last few days with people who are Trump's porters and Trump voters.

And Anne has said, is he just-- what is he just doing too much, too many hours of the day? Is he overloaded because he's-- I had a few missteps recently, Gene, including the Jesus. Now, I think Michael did you pull that audio sign

by it, hang with me for a second, Gene,

because President Trump was asked about this. And I'm sure everybody's seen it, but maybe some people haven't-- President Trump put out on truth social a meme of sorts. And it is, and I described it on the radio a couple days ago,

β€œI think, with soldiers and the American flag,”

and then there is a Jesus like with a red, robe, Donald Trump bending over to add minister, looked like, you know, holiness to someone and injured a wounded person. And I think when most people saw it, most people

crinched at Trump's porters, Trump voters, good Christians, good Catholics, looked at it and said, now, that's a little wacky for an American president. And I think President Trump thinks that he's just being tongue-in-cheek, but it didn't fly that way.

And picking a fight with the Pope and suggesting that the Pope isn't tough on crime, you know, which is when I saw that, I've got to say, I left out loud. I said, oh, the Pope's not tough on crime. President Trump says, "Pops not-- not tough on crime."

He's not actually supposed to be tough on crime. He's the Pope, he's the head of the Catholic Church. He's not-- he's not a cape-crew's sater. But the, you know, that thing, President Trump, let me get to this audio sound bite, Jean, for you,

because President Trump was asked about this. Hey, you're depicting, you put out something apparently depicting yourself as Jesus. And it looks like you're trying to heal someone. And it's obviously a holy picture.

And Jesus' face is replaced with yours. And that's a little nutty, President, what's up with that? Mr. President, did you post that picture of yourself? Did he do his Jesus Christ? Well, it wasn't to picture it.

It was me, I did post it. And I thought it was me as a doctor and had to do with red crosses, a red cross worker there, which we support. And only the fake news could come up with that one. So I just heard about it, and he said, how did they come up with that?

It's supposed to be me as a doctor, making people better. And I do make people better, and make people a lot better. So Jean, what do-- and I just called up the picture on the internet here. Thanks to the Patriarchy. But Trump posed new AI image of himself embracing Jesus amid backlash

from Christians, and I'm going rift with Pope Leo, and not a doctor. He's got a glowing light coming out of his left hand. And he's vending over with his wearing a white long looks like ankle leg through with a red blanket around his shoulders. And it's obviously at a bare minimum, very reminiscent of iconography,

of religious iconography. And I've got to say, I just-- somebody has to be sitting next to him. And say, Mr. President, you know, you stayed up a little too late last night. You're working too much back off of this stuff for a while. And what would you say to the President, Jean, if you were here with me now?

I guess I would say, you know, I voted for you because you were a man of peace.

You wanted to-- and you did in your first six months.

You did a lot of things in so peace. And you bought-- it kept us out of war the first term.

β€œAnd I thought that's what was going to happen the second term.”

And then, then, as well, what happened? Then, I ran happened. Then, baby died in your ear. And I think you're taking up a crutch for him, a proxy for him. I don't like the direction where you're going now, Mr. President.

Is there any way you can turn back to the President that I voted for last year?

Yeah, I've got to-- I've got to say, Jean, I'm glad that you called in and that you're--

β€œand that you're entirely comfortable as you should be saying all this to me, certainly.”

You should be very comfortable. And you're not alone, and I've heard from other big Trump supporters and Trump voters in the last few days saying, what is he thinking? What is he doing? Well, I pick a fight with the public, right?

The picture itself has Jesus, and it's true the war with not something we expected. And I've got to say, as a general principle, I think that the President getting way out in front of Iran with nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles, I think that is a big, big order for the President to say, "Con, but it's a huge one," because the day we wake up, and Iran has an arsenal of nuclear weapons on ballistic missiles.

But that's the day that everything on Earth changes immediately. And that went in, you can debate that. And the Pope is allowed to even pound the table and demand peace if that's what the Pope wants to do. That's the Pope's job.

And I don't know if you're a Catholic or not, Jean, but it's not really important. But the Pope gets to say what the Pope wants to say about matters of war and peace and everything else, and for the President of the United States to get in the face of the Pope and say he's not tough on crime, I thought it was pretty nutty. And I can laugh about it, but that's something that affects the entire world.

And there are 1.4 billion Catholics worldwide, the number one denomination in the United

States is Catholic, and the President growing down that road, if I had been sitting next to him, I would have said, you know, Mr. President, let me just tell you, you shouldn't do that. I hit send on that, just stop your fingers from moving right now. Don't hit send.

And then the President said, oh, I was a doctor. No, I was in that picture. I was a doctor. No, no.

β€œHe said, you just said, that was who he was, isn't it, Jean?”

Yeah, I think I think it was. And then there are little things like this and his good friend, Riley Gaines. I mean, you want to say, and she was, you know, stupid, or I don't know what she did. And I don't believe everything I read on the internet, but, you know, it's sort of a pattern that I don't like.

And God knows we have to win something in the election, or we're going to have the opposite side, have a landslide, and then we'll be based. So, you know, I obviously didn't vote for Kakala last term, and I wouldn't vote for them as long as they have their platform written the way they do, and continue to do what they do.

But what have we got to show, you know, what do we have to offer, except more of, Tom has good policies. And I agree with you completely about getting in front of the war in Iran, and make clear reactors, et cetera, et cetera.

β€œBut I think, isn't there a way to do things with more people like Congress or something”

on your side, so that you don't look like you're a loose cannon? Yeah.

He never gives up the fight.

That's for sure. He's a fighter, and he was elected because he's a fighter. Because he doesn't put up with these, these people he won't be rolled over. But look, I also, I was talking to, even my best girl about this yesterday before the sun went down, and, you know, he, he worked so many hours a day.

We see posting tweets at 5 a.m., at midnight, and it looks like he never sleeps, and he's constantly hammering away, and he might need a little time off, a little down time. And he's, you know, he holds hours of press conferences a day, and public events where he's talking, nonstop, and answering questions, nonstop, and it's kind of amazing on one hand.

But on the other hand, maybe a little down time would serve President Trump well, right about now, I think. That's a good thing to pray for. Yeah, that's very nice, and I didn't even know about the rally games thing. I'm going to, I'm going to confess to you, Gene, rally games response after Trump dismisses

criticism of AI Jesus posts. So rally games, the political anti-trans activist, she's not an anti-trans activist, she's a pro-woman activist, rally games, quickly pivoted from criticism to praise President Donald Trump after he fired back at a comment that she made dismissing the now-deleted AI Jesus image, now, and the post drew scrutiny from rally games and other religious conservatives

Who have been some of Trump's strongest supporters.

This is USA today typing on behalf of the Democrat party, with wrongs speaking out against

β€œhis social media meme of himself depicted as Jesus Christ.”

Now, I don't know if you saw this, Gene, somebody else put out another meme going around with Jesus, so it's got a black and white drawing of Jesus in robes and so on. Reaching forward, and Jesus is saying, all right, that's it, give me a phone. It's all like who's just in the red phone years ago, right?

Yeah, that's pretty crazy, yeah, but this rally game's jumped in.

Gene, thank you for the call, and look, and keep in touch with me too, because this is an ever evolving, a constantly evolving situation. And the president is, you know, you use the term loose can, and you're not the first person I heard, use that term in the last week.

β€œThe president should tighten up his sales a little bit here, and focus on what matters,”

and not pick fights with 1.4 billion Catholics worldwide, and the Pope, and the Pope is not

supposed to be tough on crime, just as a little aside, and rally games gets to be critical

of you as well, because she's been a big supporter, and even if she hadn't been, she's still allowed to be critical of you, but in America, you're allowed to be critical, and you shouldn't picture self as, as a holy crusader, a healing people with a holy light coming from your hand, and Riley Games said, why, seriously, I cannot understand why he opposed this Riley Games wrote, "a little humility would serve him well," she said,

and president Trump lashed out, just a dialect down to nine every now and then, please, Mr. President. >> I've got to say a lot of people have jumped up with Gene, with Gene calling in, and raising concerns about President Trump, and I have had a number of conversations in the last week along this very line.

And I understand most of what he's doing is tongue-in-cheek, and he thinks it's funny, and it's cute, but something should be left to other people, and we even had this ridiculous MSNBC, Michael Percy, just played me audio from which crusader, I had Chris Hayes, and I said, I felt so terrible because Chris Hayes said, almost the same thing that I said, but President Trump and the Pope, not being tough on crime, the Pope, not being tough on crime.
