Merrick Garland Let Down His President And The Country


Glenn Kirschner On The Stephanie Miller Show 20241115.

Glenn Kirschner: Merrick Garland was a good man. I believe he is good man. But, it turned out he was the wrong man for the moment. I've been saying this for over a year. He did not aggressively go after the folks who tried to end American democracy. This is where we have landed because of it.

Video: Oct 18, 2024. Bob Woodward and Stephen Colbert discuss his book War.


Transcript Excerpt

Bob Woodward: ...it one of the things that I report in the book is that Biden regretted that he put merrick garland in as attorney general and said to his aides, "I made a mistake. I should not have done that". ... the concern Biden has is personal. That the attorney general appointed a special counsel to investigate hunter biden. His son. The issue of Hunter Biden is just ripping Joe Biden's heart out. And it is something he talks about with close friends. He worries about, where is this going to go? He has said he would not pardon him. There are couple trials coming up. Quite frankly I know enough about Biden. I don't believe that. I think he will pardon his son.

I certainly hope so. Hunter Biden should definitely get a pardon. As for this regret, I think Biden also regrets appointing him because he didn't move quickly enough to hold tRump accountable for his many crimes. If not he certainly should have this second regret in regards to appointing Garland.

We can't know how things would have shook out if Garland had moved faster, though we certainly would have been further along in the process of holding the fat Orange Turd accountable. The result would have probably still been that the Turd strategy of delay would end up being successful.

So, maybe Joe Biden only regrets appointing Garland due to him keeping in place the tRump appointed prosecutor, which he definitely should not have done. It was a futile attempt to appear independant. But it didn't work. trumpers still claimed that Biden was directing Garland to prosecute d0n0ld. So he shoudn't have bothered. He should have appointed someone else or dropped the charges alltogether.


Daily Beast: The New Abnormal podcast co-hosts Danielle Moodie and Andy Levy are angry about the current political mess that Americans find themselves in—but not at who you might think.

"I don't even blame Donald Trump because you can't blame a fvcking criminal for criming", Moodie said. "But I sure as fvck can blame Merrick Garland, a supposed Democrat that was supposed to do a really important job and failed".

"We're in this place at a 50/50 fvcking coin toss-up of an election because of Merrick Garland", Moodie added. "Because if he had entered into office doing his job from day one, Donald Trump wouldn't have had the opportunity to announce that he was running for office again, because he would have been buried under indictments".

Alexander Hamilton Has Been Proven Wrong


Alex Hamilton: The process of election affords a moral certainty, that the office of President will never fall to the lot of any man who is not in an eminent degree endowed with the requisite qualifications. Talents for low intrigue, and the little arts of popularity, may alone suffice to elevate a man to the first honors in a single State; but it will require other talents, and a different kind of merit, to establish him in the esteem and confidence of the whole Union, or of so considerable a portion of it as would be necessary to make him a successful candidate for the distinguished office of President of the United States.

It will not be too strong to say, that there will be a constant probability of seeing the station filled by characters pre-eminent for ability and virtue. And this will be thought no inconsiderable recommendation of the Constitution, by those who are able to estimate the share which the executive in every government must necessarily have in its good or ill administration. Though we cannot acquiesce in the political heresy of the poet who says: "For forms of government let fools contest -- That which is best administered is best...

-- yet we may safely pronounce, that the true test of a good government is its aptitude and tendency to produce a good administration. The Federalist Papers #68, March 12, 1788.

Thom Hartmann: Alexander Hamilton thought he (and the others who wrote the Constitution) had it all figured out. He and his colleagues never imagined that a group of billionaires would spend 43 years and billions of dollars to seize the US Supreme Court, which would then legalize political bribery.

They never conceived of a foreign billionaire family coming to American and building a nationwide media ecosystem that was capable of convincing Americans that up was down, wrong was right, and a convicted fraudster and rapist would be a noble president.

Without billionaire-controlled media (including billionaire-owned social media) and billions spent to carpet-bomb America with extraordinarily deceptive advertising, Donald Trump would never have had a chance.

Sam Seder On TYT & Russia Paying rightturd Podcasters To Propagate Pro Putin Propaganda


Above are some AI images of Ana Kasparian and d0n0ld. I'm not sure how much they look like her, but the images are labeled with her name. Who created these and why? By a rightturd who was happy with Ana's drift to the right? Still, I doubt she would be into the fat Orange Turd. Both her and her boss, Cenk Uygur have drifted rightward it seems.

Video: Oct 17, 2024. Sam Seder GETS REAL about Ana Kasparian & Cenk Uygur, SPILLS THE TEA on TYT. In this clip from our new exclusive interview with Sam Seder of "The Majority Report", we discuss the the recent right-wing pivot by Cenk & Ana of The Young Turks. Let us know your thoughts in the comments! #anakasparian #samseder #cenkuygur.


Sam Seder joins Zachary Polston and Gavin Miller-Broomfield of The Vanguard podcast for a 15 minute discussion.

Transcript

Sam: I think you know, my sense is that at TYT they saw, uh, Hassan make uh, just a ton of money and have a huge amount of success [1]. And I think there was, you know, in certain parts of TYT there was resent. And, you know, I don't know, uh, Ana particularly well -- I'm not sure that we've ever met in person -- um...

Zachary: Well she's a bad big fan of ours so I'm sure she's watching, Sam.

Sam: um but, I get the sense that she's watched our program too. 0:41

[edit here. Above shown as "coming soon", so it's a preview of what's coming later. The acutal start of the podcast is next]...

Zachary: I think that's really a lot more common than people who you know, Sam. You know it seems like you've been -- I mean I know for a fact you've been at this a long time. You actually believe that you could have done other things and you decided to put politics first. I feel like a lot of people they just realize -- oh yeah, hey man, a lot of dumb people will watch right-wing YouTube and they'll praise me and they'll send me super chats and I won't have to stand on my for eight hours a day. I won't have to work in a cubicle I could be praised all day.

And I don't know about you, but Gavin and I have been scratching our heads over here. We're not sure if it's something in the water over in that particular part of California. Uh, if we're going to be revealed that, uh, you know whatever the treatment facility is under some sort of like an Enron scandal of the modern age where the water's just no good at the faucets of The Young Turks network. But we've seen Dave Rubin, who I think fits that description of Tim Pool to a T. 1:27

And then you have Jimmy Dore who also, you knowm he can't resist. He has to go down the right-wing rabbit hole. Right? He has to go and humiliate himself. But now we're seeing a third barrel. Or a third individual start to circle the drain, And I want to know what you think about it. Uh, because Anna kasparan has recently announced her, un, unalignment from the political left. She said she no longer feels that she can be considered one of us in times like this. And she wants to talk about the real grifters. Not Jimmy Dore. Not Dave Rubin. Not the litany of conservatives, uh, that are making money hand over fist offending and rampaging on behalf of the criminal bloodthirsty siege of the people in the Gaza Strip. 2:16

I'll zoom in a little bit more so you can see, Sam. But she says the real grifters are the progressive branded nonprofits that have repeatedly misused public funds. Why won't the left call them out? And she goes on to talk about how she's voting against an increase in taxes for nonprofits to prevent homeless people. Because she still wants to be able to complain about it as her number one issue in my view. Uh, she says uh, I'll be voting no on measure 8. which is a plan to raise another one billion. Through what she calls a regressive sales tax to build homeless shelters. 2:53

Housing and other services. So the big grift is taking away money from the hard-earning people like Ana and giving it to homeless shelters and other NPO organizations that are interested in combating what is a serious crisis in Southern California. But that's not all. If you go back a little further you could see her most recent article where she talks about how gangs are taking over Aurora. Which is a suburb outside of Denver I happen to have spent a lot of time in. And I can report back safely that there are no gangs taking over this poor Suburban Enclave. As even their Republican mayor notes. So I'm just wondering, what is it that makes people do this ideological pivot in their late 30s. 3:36

Sam: Well, um, and just to add to that Aurora thing -- two points I can't help myself -- on the Aurora thing. It turns out those guys in that video weren't even part of a gang. Uh, that video that went viral -- apparently, uh coming out of Aurora. I guess it was like a week or two ago. The police said they are not part of a gang. I'm not familiar with measure A. Although I do think sales taxes -- I do have a problem with sales tax being a a little regressive. I would do a different type of taxation. But I don't think that's her point. 4:07

Um, the -- I think -- I mean, look -- I came from this. Uh, I came from a world where -- you know, I was working with a lot of people who -- um, had at when I left that world -- you know, at least in terms professionally. Um, had, um you know a decent amount of celebrity or fame. And um, there's obviously in show business you run into a lot of people who sort of like really want uh, celebrity. And um, and money, of course. I mean, you know -- look I want to be able to make money.. But I think there is -- I think part of like -- I don't know if it's a function of LA -- um, to be honest with you. Or um, But part of it is like for people -- they get super excited about the celebrity aspect of it. And uh, the money aspect. And it's, you know, you guys know it's hard work. 5:25

[Same segment that played at the beginning follows]...

Sam: I think you know, my sense is that at TYT they saw, uh, Hassan make uh, just a ton of money and have a huge amount of success [1]. And I think there was, you know, in certain parts of TYT there was resent. And, you know, I don't know, uh, Ana particularly well -- I'm not sure that we've ever met in person -- um...

Zachary: Well she's a bad big fan of ours so so I'm sure she's watching, Sam.

Sam: Um but, I get the sense that she's watched our program too. 6:06

[End repeat of segment that played initially as "coming up"]

I mean look -- I think she, uh, for a long time, has uh, wanted to figure out how she could uh bust out of TYT. I know, oddly enough, that like, uh, you know. Well she was doing that show with Michael at the Jacobin [2]. And I have a feeling like there was, maybe a sense that there'd be more opportunity there. Um, if they built out that, um, you know -- I know Michael was planning to do a Daily Show with the Jacobin. Uh, I don't know what part Ana would have played in that, but maybe it was, you know, maybe there was opportunity there. And that was an opportunity for her that obviously, uh didn't exist after Michael passed away. 6:53

Um, and I imagine there's some frustration and I think -- like look, you know, Jimmy did a Comedy Central special, uh, I think ... 25 years ago. And... 7:05

Zachary: Still has the same jokes if you see him live. 7:07

Sam: I would have no doubt about it. But I think, like you know it, he -- this was a way to revive his career. I mean I know Dave Rubin. I spoke to a writer whose kid went to the same school as my kid like five or 10 years ago. And, um, he said to me, like, oh, Dave Rubin -- I wanted to talk to you about this. Dave Rubin would just like harass me to write about him all the time. I think it's just like a real um, uh, desperation for fame, celebrity and money. And um, and I think -- this, you know, I think after they do this for an extended period of time, you know, it's hard. It's tiring sometimes. You feel like, uh you you know, it's, um, you know people have maybe thinner skins uh, than others. And they start to chase where they're getting clicks. 8:11

I mean to me it's a parody. Somebody posted a parody like this, uh, when I was on Chapo years ago we made a joke about like how we would do a right-wing turn [3]. We always joke about being the Trump supporting Stoners. It was this was, like in 20 -- 16 or 17 -- and I was like, yeah, no, I've thought about this. For years in fact we 8:34 used to do -- Michael and I used to do a fake right-wing show on Halloween and on, um, April Fools. And the reason why we did it two times a year was because, like we so desperately wanted a break from doing, you know like it was, like this is gonna be like a day off. Like we don't have to do anything. Like we all the talking points are there. 9:01

And, um, for a long time my the the joke was, like you know, this is how I do it. And even when I got divorced, I'm like, this is it. This is my opportunity. When you get divorced you're mad, you know? Like I'm an angry old divorced guy. And it starts with, like uh, you know, "my wife's, you know, making me, my ex-wife making pay child support", and uh, then like it just like builds into like a broader uh, sort of misogistic pallet. And then I realized like, oh you know -- and that's how you...

Zachary: you might be the only man with the platform that dodged that bullet. I want you to know, I mean people I would have sworn up and down were gonna ride with the Left until the end. Like Matt Taibi going hysterically, you know, right on a number of issues. And then not even correcting course when the shrapnel hit Ken Klippen [4]. I don't know. It was really ridiculous for me to watch that one. And I'm like, if Matt Taibi is going to go down, like how the -- who else? I mean you and Ryan Grim. You're like the only middle-aged dudes with principles, it feels like. 9:58

Sam: I'm older than Ryan. He would not appreciate you putting me in the same age category as him. But um, yeah, I think it's just a different -- I mean, look there's a lot of, like, in politics and in this sort of in particularly in this space -- but in general there's, um, a lot of people who, um, have have like, uh, like socialization issues in some ways. ... I don't -- I'm not the most, uh, well, socialized person. Um. And I think there's, you know, often, uh people are in this space because there's some, you know, trauma often. Uh, that has taken place. But honestly, like I think that's like why you start to advocate for...

Zachary: Talk about politics? Oh, yeah for, and advocate for it. 10:46

Sam: ...you know specific groups of people and um and then sometimes that spins off and goes awry. I mean um, it's weird that you -- I mean, I guess you do see it go the other direction a little bit. ...there's a couple of people who have done...

Zachary: It's like taking a poverty oath though. A lot of people don't want to do it. 11:16

Sam: ...it's definitely not as lucrative. I mean, I think like you know I have a theory about this whole um uh Tenant Media money. Which is that the reason why getting $100,000 per video four times a month did not set set off -- I mean, that's what Rubin got. Rubin made $5 million in a year for doing four videos a month and Tim Pool made somewhere around that too. 11:55

...and I think the reason why it didn't set off any alarm bells is uh, because I think they get subsidized in one fashion or another. Um, maybe not to that amount, but I think they must get you know situations like that somewhat on the regular. Um, because, I mean I can tell you Peacock the Choice uh you know what they called it. Or the MSNBC on Peacock licensed the Majority Report, and it wasn't anywhere remotely close to that [5]. 12:23

And ...I understood why they were coming to me. Because I, if I could just give them my show, it's much cheaper than them having to produce one. And ...there was some measure of confidence that I wasn't going to be, you know, that I could actually deliver a show. Because I've been doing it for ...15-16 years, or whatever it was. And ...that money was not even remotely close to ... I think Rubin made what I made in a year in less than ... two weeks... And I'm, you know, like it's a daily show. Um, and I think the reason why they took that money with basically, we need to see some photocopied sheet of paper that uh, purports the, you know for Rabot Gerard or whatever the guy's name -- Gerard Depardieu or whatever... [6] 13:43

Zachary: Sounds like a extra in Twin Peaks.

Sam: Yeah exactly, like just sort of some French Canadian actor. Um uh, I think the reason why they took the money was because they were -- it wasn't you know, it was more than probably they had gotten in the past -- but like the idea of like somebody coming in going like we're going to give you $100,000 you know for the next, uh six weeks to tweet out sh!t like this. I think that happens all the time. 14:10

There was that report that um Semafor did where um, what's his face, George Santos was on a call and it was a it was a Zoom call where people were getting like $20,000 to Tweet out and create content around Kamala Harris being a slut. Uh, check that report out [7+8]. And I'm convinced like, oh this sh!t happens all f*cking time for them. Because I've been doing this for 20 years and I have never ever... 14:54

According to the indictment, the influencers, including Dave Rubin, Tim Pool, and Benny Johnson, were reportedly given false information about the source of the funding.

More description: Join Jillian as she explores the surprising reasons behind Ana Kasparian's move away from the left. Ana Kasparian, co-founder of The Young Turks, one of the most popular left-leaning news organizations, recently departed from the left, sending shockwaves through the political landscape and raising questions about her decision.

In this episode, Ana shares her growing disillusionment with the increasing radicalism and intolerance within extreme left factions. She also addresses deep concerns about identity politics, corporate funding of political parties, the decline of California, and the embracing of endorsements from figures like Dick Cheney.

Ana's commitment to intellectual honesty and her desire for constructive dialogue ultimately pushed her away from the community she once embraced. Exposure to alternative perspectives through media appearances with the likes of Ben Shapiro, Dave Rubin, Tomi Lahren and more broadened her understanding of the political spectrum, making it difficult for her to align with any ideology.

Later in the episode, Ana reveals her "final straw" -- the public backlash and attacks she faced from her own party for expressing nuanced views on a highly polarizing issue.

Ana's departure has significant implications for the future of progressive politics. Without her voice, the left risks becoming more radicalized and isolated. However, Ana's decision could also open the door for a more moderate, inclusive, and intellectually honest political approach that values debate and free thought over dogma.

Carlos Alazraqui On The Stephanie Miller Show 20241113


Carlos Allazraqui: ...democracy was like the boy that escaped Dahmer's apartment and was well on it's way to working again. The republicans were the cops that brought him back to Dahmer.

Stephanie: That's a great and horrible analogy.

Carlos: I know, it's very dark. We were rid of him. Biden won. We were going in the right direction. ... don't blame this on Democrats. Blame republicans who, after January 6, didn't have the courage to say "No, he's done. We're all voting to impeach and convict him".

[End Stephanie Miller Show Excerpt]

Copilot: Konerak Sinthasomphone, one of Jeffrey Dahmer's victims, who was only 14 years old at the time, managed to escape from Dahmer's apartment but was found disoriented and bleeding on the street by two police officers. Despite the pleas from neighbors who suspected something was wrong, the officers believed Dahmer's claim that Konerak was his 19-year-old boyfriend who had been drinking and was just being overly affectionate. Shockingly, the police officers escorted Konerak back to Dahmer's apartment, where he was ultimately murdered.

This incident is a stark reminder of the failures in the system and the tragic consequences that can result from such mistakes. It's a deeply disturbing part of the Dahmer case that highlights the importance of vigilance and proper police training.

d0n0ld Lied About Project 2025


Question: Prior to the election, what statements did trump make in regards to project 2025?

Perplexity: Based on the search results, Donald Trump made several statements distancing himself from Project 2025 prior to the election...

1. Trump claimed ignorance: "I know nothing about Project 2025. I have no idea who is behind it", Trump posted on his social media platform Truth Social in July 2024.

2. He expressed disagreement: "I disagree with some of the things they're saying and some of the things they're saying are absolutely ridiculous and abysmal", Trump stated in the same social media post.

3. Denial of involvement: "Anything they do, I wish them luck, but I have nothing to do with them", Trump added.

4. Campaign rally statement: At a campaign rally in July, Trump said, "I don't know what the hell it is", referring to Project 2025, before calling some of its policy proposals "seriously extreme".

5. Lack of endorsement: Trump's campaign spokeswoman Danielle Alvarez stated that Trump only endorses the Republican Party platform and the agenda posted on his own website.

6. Campaign managers' statement: Trump's campaign managers, Susie Wiles and Chris LaCivita, issued a joint statement saying, "President Trump's campaign has been very clear for over a year that Project 2025 had nothing to do with the campaign, did not speak for the campaign, and should not be associated with the campaign or the President in any way".

7. Denial of reading: Trump claimed he "NEVER READ IT, NEVER SAW IT," despite his many ties to the sprawling list of co-authors.

These statements show that Trump consistently tried to distance himself from Project 2025 throughout his campaign, claiming no knowledge of or involvement with the initiative.

Citations: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12]

Question: But he lied, correct?

Perplexity: Based on the information provided in the search results, there are strong indications that Trump's claims of ignorance about Project 2025 were not truthful. Here's why...

1. Extensive connections: Despite Trump's denials, he has numerous ties to Project 2025 and the Heritage Foundation, which is behind the project.

2. Involvement of close associates: Many of Trump's close allies and former administration officials are directly involved in Project 2025, including...
• Ken Cuccinelli, a former top official in Trump's Department of Homeland Security.
• Russell Vought, Trump's former budget director.
• John McEntee, Trump's former personnel director.

3. Policy alignment: Many of the policies proposed in Project 2025 align closely with Trump's own stated agenda and actions during his previous administration.

4. Heritage Foundation relationship: Trump has had a long-standing relationship with the Heritage Foundation, which has been supportive of his policies and has provided staff for his administration.

5. Inconsistent statements: Trump's claim of never having read or seen Project 2025 contradicts the level of involvement his close associates have had with the project.

6. Campaign strategy: Some analysts suggest that Trump's distancing from Project 2025 might be a strategic move to avoid association with some of its more controversial proposals during the election campaign.

While Trump publicly denied knowledge of and involvement with Project 2025, the extensive connections between the project, its authors, and Trump's own circle suggest that his claims of ignorance are likely not accurate. The evidence points to a much closer relationship between Trump and Project 2025 than he publicly acknowledged.

Citations: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12]

Question: Didn't Rolling Stone Publish an article titled "Republicans Celebrate by Admitting They Can't Wait for Project 2025"? Can you tell me about that article and let me know if there are any other such statements you can cite?

Perplexity: Yes, Rolling Stone did publish an article with that title on November 6, 2024, following Donald Trump's victory in the 2024 presidential election [3]. The article discusses how some Republicans and conservative figures began openly acknowledging their support for Project 2025 after previously distancing themselves from it during the campaign.

Key points from the article and related statements include...

1. Post-election admissions: Several conservative figures made statements on social media and in broadcasts admitting their support for Project 2025 [2].

2. Matt Walsh's tweet: Conservative commentator Matt Walsh tweeted, "Now that the election is over, we can finally admit that yes, Project 2025 is indeed the plan. Lol." [2]

3. Steve Bannon's endorsement: Recently released from incarceration, Steve Bannon praised Walsh's statement on his post-election broadcast, calling it "fabulous" [2].

4. Other conservative figures: The New Republic reported that right-wing podcaster Benny Johnson boasted about the project, stating, "I am pleased to confirm that Project 2025 was genuine all along." Additionally, T County GOP Bo French tweeted, "Can we now acknowledge that we plan to implement Project 2025?" [2]

5. Rolling Stone's coverage: Rolling Stone's official Twitter account posted, "Donald Trump has won the election, and Republicans are now comfortable openly admitting that Project 2025 was the plan all along". [6]

It's important to note that during the campaign, Trump and his allies had distanced themselves from Project 2025, with Trump claiming he was unaware of it and had no involvement [2]. However, the post-election statements suggest a shift in messaging now that the election has concluded.

These admissions have reignited discussions about the potential implementation of Project 2025's policies, which include significant changes to various aspects of the federal government and social policies [1]. While some of these statements may be intended to provoke political opponents, they have nonetheless brought renewed attention to the project and its potential impact on a second Trump administration.
