HERALD DOUGH, JESSE WATER AND
EVIL SHANNON BREAM.
"THE FIVE."
PRESIDENT BIDEN BEGGING
DEMOCRATS TO SAVE HIS REAR END
BEFORE JETTING OFF TO EUROPE TO
CEDE THE POPE.
JOE TELLING DEMS BEHIND CLOSED
DOORS TO PASS HIS MASSIVE
SPENDING PLAN OR IT’S PRESIDENCY
IS TOAST.
HE THEN ANNOUNCED HIS PARTY HAS
REACHED THE FRAME WORK ON A
$1.75 TRILLION DEAL THAT HE SAYS
WILL TRANSFORM AMERICA.
>> ANY SINGLE ELEMENT OF THIS
FRAME WORK WOULD FUNDAMENTALLY
VIEW -- BE VIEWED AS A
FUNDAMENTAL CHANGE IN AMERICA.
TAKEN TOGETHER, THEY’RE TRULY
CONSEQUENTIAL.
WHEN PAIRED WITH THE BIPARTISAN
INFRASTRUCTURE BILL, WE WILL
TRULY TRANSFORM THIS NATION.
AS I SAID BEFORE, THE PLANS ARE
FISCALLY RESPONSIBLE.
THEY’RE FULLY PAID FOR.
THEY DON’T ADD A SINGLE PENNY TO
THE DEFICIT.
I WANT EVERYBODY TO BE ABLE TO
BE A MILLIONAIRE OR BILLIONAIRE
TO SEEK THEIR GOAL BUT ALL I’M
ASKING, PAY YOUR FAIR SHARE.
>> Greg: OKAY!
BUT SO FAR RADICAL DEMOCRATS SAY
ALMOST $2 TRILLION DOESN’T GO
FAR ENOUGH.
THEY’RE THREATENING TO BLOW UP
BIDEN’S BIG PLANS.
>> SO YOU’RE NOT ON BOARD WITH
THE FRAME WORK AS IT’S DRAFTED?
>> I WANT TO SEE IT IN TEXT.
>> YOU KNOW IF NANCY PELOSI WERE
TO BRING UP THE VOTE IN THE NEXT
COUPLE DAYS?
>> IF IT’S BY ITSELF, A
STAND-ALONE, ABSOLUTELY I’M 100%
A NO.
THERE’S NO GETTING ME TO A YES.
>> PROGRESSIVES HAVE BEEN
CLAMORING TO SEE TEXT OF THE
BILL.
PELOSI JUST DROPPED THE 2,400
PAGES WORTH.
SO BUST OUT YOUR READING
GLASSES, JESSE, OLD MAN.
FOR WHEN A VOTE HAPPENS, NANCY
PELOSI IS BEING CRYSTAL CLEAR.
>> ARE YOU HOLDING A
INFRASTRUCTURE VOTE TODAY?
HAVE YOU MADE THAT DECISION?
ARE YOU HOLDING A INFRASTRUCTURE
VOTE TODAY?
>> Greg: A TRUE LEADER.
SO JESSE, THERE IS A DEMOCRAT
VICTORY IN HERE.
THEY HAVE MADE IT SO AMERICANS
SO 1.75 AS A SMALL NUMBER?
A BARGAIN.
>> Greg: YEAH.
THEY BEGAN WITH $3 TRILLION,
WHICH MEANS THEIR STRATEGY
WORKED AND WE’RE SCREWED.
>> Jesse: WE’RE SCREWED.
I DON’T THINK THE STRATEGY
WORKED.
I THINK IT’S A MESS.
I HOPE I’M WRONG.
I THINK THEY’LL GET SOMETHING
PASSED IN THE NEXT FIVE DAYS TO
GIVE JOE A WIN OVERSEAS SO HE
WHICH BEAT HIS CHEST TO THE
WORLD.
THEY HAVE TO GET SOMETHING DONE
UNDER THE WIRE BEFORE TUESDAY.
SO THE MEDIA WILL WRITE THIS
STORY.
THIS IS THE COMEBACK KID.
AN INSIDE THE BELTWAY STORY.
THE REST OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE,
THIS TWO-HEADED MONSTER WILL NOT
AFFECT THEM IN A POSITIVE WAY.
DOES NOTHING FOR THE BORDER OR
INFLATION.
DOES NOTHING NOR THE SUPPLY
CHAIN.
DOES NOT CREATE JOBS.
IF ANYTHING, THE DEMOCRATS ARE
GOING TO OWN INFLATION WHEN
THEIR SPENDING TRILLIONS ON TOP
OF WHAT WE ALREADY HAVE.
THEY ALREADY OWN THE BORDER
CRISIS AND SLIPPING IN THIS
BILL.
I DID READ SOME OF IT.
AMNESTY FOR 10 MILLION ILLEGAL
IMMIGRANTS.
THEY’RE GOING TO OWN HIGH GAS
PRICES BECAUSE THEY SLIPPED IN A
LITTLE GREEN NEW DEAL HERE.
THEY’RE GOING TO OWN THE WEAK
RECOVERY BECAUSE THEY’RE GOING
TO RAISE TAXES HIGHER THAN IT’S
BEEN DONE BEFORE.
IN A COUPLE YEARS, YOU MAY HAVE
GOVERNMENT-RUN DAY CARE.
IN A COUPLE ONCE THEY GET THAT
OFF THE GROUND.
PRIVATE DAY CARE WILL SKY
ROCKET.
THEY HAVE TO COMPETE WITH THIS
NEW PROGRAM.
IN A YEAR THEY HAVE A FEW
HUNDRED ELECTRIC CAR CHARGES
STATIONS.
2% OF US OWN AN ELECTRIC
VEHICLE.
IT’S NOT THAT GREAT.
SOME OF THE SPENDING IS GOOD.
YOU WANT WI FI AND NICE
RAILROADS AND LESS TRAFFIC, BUT
A LOT OF THIS IS DOUBLING DOWN
ON THE BOONDOGGLE OF BANKRUPT
PROGRAMS LIKE MEDICAID AND
MEDICARE WHICH ARE NOT DOING
WELL RIGHT NOW.
SO THIS COUNTRY IS GOING TO SIT
AROUND FOR THE NEXT COUPLE DAYS
AND WATCH A BUNCH OF UNTALENTED
POLITICIANS TRY TO RAISE TAXES
SO THEY CAN SQUARE THE NUMBERS
TO SEE IF THEY CAN PAY FOR STUFF
THAT NOBODY WANTS OR NEEDS.
THAT’S WHAT WE’RE WATCHING RIGHT
NOW.
>> Greg: KUDOS TO YOUR
ASSISTANTS.
AT 2,400 PAGES, WE NEVER KNOW.
WE KEEP REPEATING THE SAME
MISTAKE.
THE WORST PART ABOUT THIS.
WE KNOW OF THIS IS CRAP.
NOBODY READS IT BECAUSE IT’S
IMPOSSIBLE.
THAT’S THE BIG LIE.
THAT WE’RE ACTUALLY KNOW WHAT IS
GOING ON.
>> THE THING IS, I KNOW YOU
THINK MAYBE IT’S A FOREGONE CON
CLUES THAT THEY GET SOMETHING
DONE.
WE LITERALLY GOT AN E-MAIL FROM
JASON DONNER, ONE OF OUR
PRODUCERS THAT JUST TALKED TO
MANCHIN THAT SAID WE’RE WORKING
TOGETHER IN GOOD FAITH.
WE’RE HEARING THE SAME THING
FROM SENATOR SINEMA.
A LOT OF PEOPLE IN THE HOUSE --
LOOKS LIKE THE SPEAKER IS NOT
PULLING THE TRIGGER ON THE VOTE.
SO WHAT THE PRESIDENT SAID, WE
MADE PROGRESS BUT I DON’T THINK
WE’VE SEEN A PRESS RELEASE
SAYING WE HAVE A DEAL.
SO I THINK IN D.C. THERE’S A LOT
OF STEPS TO GO.
THEY’RE TRYING TO SNEAK IN THIS
STUFF ABOUT IMMIGRATION.
PARLIAMENTARIAN HAS RULED
AGAINST THEM ON THIS.
THEY HAVE ACKNOWLEDGED THAT.
SENATOR DICK DURBIN SAID WE KNOW
BUT WE’RE GOING TO TRY AGAIN.
THEY’RE THROWING EVERYTHING AT
THE WALL.
BUT BIG THINGS THAT PEOPLE
EXPECTED AND WANTED IN LIKE
DEMOCRATS HAVE RUN FOR YEARS ON
LOWERING PRESCRIPTION DRUG
PRICES.
THAT WON’T BE A PART OF THE
BILL.
PEOPLE SAID WE’RE GOT TO HAVE IT
OR WE’RE NOT DOING IT.
IT’S NOT IN THERE.
THE PRESIDENT DID HIS
INTERESTING WHISPER THING WITH
HIS PAY YOUR FAIR SHARE.
PAY YOU FAIR SHARE.
ACCORDING TO THE IRS A
NONPARTISAN GROUP, TOP 5% PAY
60% OF INCOME TAXES.
THAT’S UP TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE
WHETHER THEY THINK THAT IS
ENOUGH.
>> Greg: THAT’S ALL THEY RELY
ON, PAY YOUR FAIR SHARE.
IT’S NOT GOING TO WORK.
PEOPLE AT THE INTERNET KNOW WHAT
PEOPLE ARE PAYING.
GERALDO WENT TO VISIT THE POPE.
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE POPE?
YOU KNOW HIM.
YOU HANG OUT WITH HIM.
YOU HAVE DINNER WITH HIM.
>> I LIKE THE POPE.
I’M HALF CATHOLIC.
>> Greg: THERE’S NO SUCH A
THING.
>> I AM HALF CATHOLIC.
I FEEL FULLY CATHOLIC AND FULLY
JEWISH.
IF YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND THAT,
YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND YOUR
COLLEAGUE.
WHAT DISAPPOINTS ME HERE IS HOW
THE PROGRESSIVES AND THE SQUAD
HAVE BEEN REVEALED AS PETTY
POLITICIANS THAT WOULD NOT ALLOW
A INFRASTRUCTURE BILL TO GO
FORWARD WHERE THERE WOULD BE THE
BRIDGES REPAIRED AND THE STREETS
AND THE WI FI.
THEY COULD HAVE DONE SO
GRACIOUSLY.
YES, WE WANT THIS BIG BILL TO
REMAKE SOCIETY AND BE GENEROUS
TO LEAST AMONGST US.
LET’S DO THIS WHERE EVERYBODY
BENEFITS.
A HIGHWAY THAT IS SMOOTH WITHOUT
HOLES IN IT.
BENEFITS THE RICH AND THE POOR
ALIKE.
AND THE FACT THAT THEY WERE
AGAINST IT AND THEY USED THEIR
POWER TO SCREW PELOSI AND FORCE
HER INTO THIS UNWIELDY BILL I
THINK IS DISAPPOINTING TO ME.
I HAVE BEEN A HUGE FAN OF THEIR
ENERGY, OF THEIR NEW INSIGHTS,
THEIR IDEALISMS.
BUT THEY’RE REVEALED TO BE
RATHER THAN IDEALISTIC,
POLITICIANS, RUTHLESS
POLITICIANS OF A DIFFERENTSPORT.
>> Greg: I CAN’T BELIEVE THEY’RE
RUTHLESS POLITICIANS.
KATIE, HELP ME.
LWH.
I’M A LIBERTARIAN WITHOUT HOPE.
I FEAR THAT WE’VE GONE TO THIS
PLACE WHERE YOU HAVE PEOPLE
RELIEVED TO HAVE A $2 TRILLION
BILL THAT IS 2,500 PAGES THAT
MEANS ANYBODY THAT BELIEVES IN
SMALL GOVERNMENT, IT’S OVER,
IT’S DEAD.
>> I’M GOING TO GIVE YOU HOPE.
I KNOW YOU’LL REJECT IT.
I’LL GIVE YOU SOME HOPE.
LOOK AT THE POLLING ON THIS
RECONCILIATION PACKAGE IN EVERY
STATE THAT’S RUN BY DEMOCRATS
BUT ALSO REPUBLICANS, PURPLE
STATES, WEST VIRGINIA, FOR
EXAMPLE, ARIZONA, PEOPLE ARE
AGAINST THIS KIND OF SPENDING.
EVEN IF THEY PASS IT AND GET IT
SHOVED DOWN THEIR THROATS,
THEY’LL LOOK AT IT NEXTIER AND
2024 AND SAY WE WATCHED WHAT YOU
DID AND YOU VOTED FOR IT ANYWAY.
NOW SOMEONE HAS TO BLINK HERE.
IT’S GOING TO HAVE TO BE SENATOR
CINEMA AND SENATOR MANCHIN ON
THE SOCIALISTS IN THE HOUSE THAT
ARE HOLDING THIS UP.
BECAUSE A DEAL WAS MADE THIS
SUMMER ON INFRASTRUCTURE BETWEEN
REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS AT THE
WHITE HOUSE.
THE PRESIDENT PROMISED THEY
WOULD NOT GO TOGETHER TO BE
VOTED ON.
THEY’RE CHANGING THAT NOW.
IT WAS INTERESTING TO WATCH
NANCY PELOSI KIND OF SAYING I’M
RELEASING THE TEXT SO YOU CAN
COMPLAIN ABOUT IT, WHICH WAS
FUNNY.
SEE WHAT THEY CAN CAN DO.
JOE BIDEN IS ON THE VERGE OF
BEING A LAME DUCK PRESIDENT.
AT THIS POINT HE CAN’T GET
INFRASTRUCTURE DONE AND HE CAN’T
GET THE RECONCILIATION PACKAGE
DONE.
THEREFORE HE HAS NOTHING TO SHOW
THE FIRST YEAR IN HIS
PRESIDENCY, WHICH DOES NOT GIVE
HIM A LOT OF STRENGTH AND
NEGOTIATING POWER.
>> Greg: YOU SHOULD TALK TO
HUNTER, THE SMARTEST MAN HE’S
EVER MET.
>> WHERE DO YOU GET THE 10
MILLION ILLEGAL ALIENS GETTING
AMNESTY?
DID YOU MAKE THAT UP?
>> Jesse: I READ IT IN THE TEXT.
>> YOU DID NOT.
>> IT WAS IN THE FRAME WORK.
>> IT’S A PRETEXT.
>> IT’S DATING BACK TO 1979.
>> WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
>> THEY’RE BACK DATING THE
STATUS FOR PEOPLE THAT CAME HERE
