>> Joey: IT’S A PIVOTAL WEEK
FOR PRESENT BIDEN AND THE
DEMOCRATS AS THEY TRIED TO PASS
THEIR TRILLION DOLLARS SPENDING
PLAN.
THE WHOLE THING ACTUALLY COST OF
$0.
>> President Biden: IT’S
ACTUALLY ZERO PRICE TAG ON THE
DEAD.
WE WILL PAY FOR EVERYTHING WE
SPEND AND IT’S GOING TO BE ZERO.
>> THIS IS A $0 BILL BECAUSE IT
WILL BE COMPLETELY PAID FOR.
>> THE RECONCILIATION PACKAGE
WOULD COST A $0.
>> MEANWHILE HOUSE G.O.P. LEADER
KEVIN McCARTHY BLASTS
NANCY PELOSI AND THE PUSH FOR
MASSIVE SPENDING.
>> IF YOU ADD THAT TO THE
INFRASTRUCTURE BILL, YOU ARE
TALKING $5 TRILLION WHICH IS
MORE MONEY THAN YOU EVER SPENT
IN WINNING WORLD WAR II.
THEY DIDN’T WANT TO TALK ABOUT
NUMBERS, BUT TO SAY THAT IT’S
PAID FOR, PAID FOR A BIKE
PUTTING A DEBT ON THE NEXT
GENERATION OF AMERICANS.
>> I HAD A JOB IN MATH, I’M NO
EXPERT ON ECONOMICS.
>> I DON’T KNOW IF ANYONE IN
CONGRESS IS, BUT THIS IS A TAX
BILL FIRST.
ARE THEY DOING THIS BECAUSE THEY
THINK THAT AMERICANS STILL THINK
IT WILL TOUCH REGULAR AMERICANS?
>> IT’S A HARD THING TO REALLY
GET YOUR ARMS AROUND TO COME UP
WITH THE ADMINISTRATION CLAIMS
THAT THIS IS GOING TO BE PAID
FOR BY TAXING THE RICH, PEOPLE
WHO NEED TO PAY THEIR CHECK FAIR
SHARE.
AT THE SAME TIME THEY ARE SAYING
THEY WANT TO SNOOP THROUGH IRS
ON EVERYBODY’S BANK ACCOUNT TO
MANAGE ANY TRANSACTION OVER
$600.
WELL $600 IS A PRETTY REGULAR
PAYCHECK.
THAT’S A MINIMUM WAGE PAYCHECK,
A MIDDLE-CLASS PAYCHECK AND
DEFINITELY A PAYCHECK COMING
FROM SOMEONE WHO MAKES LESS THAN
$400,000 A YEAR.
SO JOE BIDEN IS CLAIMING HE’S
NOT GOING TO RAISE TAXES AND
HE’S GOING TO KEEP THAT CAMPAIGN
PROMISE WHILE TRYING TO MAKE
TRYING TO PASS THROUGH
6.5 TRILLION IN SPENDING.
THE PRICE TAG IS AT THE
GROCERY STORE IN THE PRICE TAG
IS IN INFLATION AND THE PRICE
TAG IS DOWN THE ROAD IN FIVE OR
TEN YEARS OR MAYBE SOONER.
THE IDEA THAT THIS IS GOING TO
BE PAID FOR BY THE RICH IS SO
EXPENSIVE, THERE IS NO WAY
THAT’S POSSIBLY TRUE.
>> Joey: DAN EXACTLY COME UP
THERE IS A DAILY SIGNAL GRAPHIC
THAT SHOWS THERE IS ABOUT
$27,000 PER AND DOES THAT NOT
MEAN THAT ALL THE STUFF WE
ENJOYED DRIP BUYING?
OR IF WE PAY THAT.
B6 THE WAY TO TEXT PEOPLE AND DO
IT QUIETLY, AND THAT SIMPLE.
HE COULD HAVE A TAX RATE OF 25%.
SO SAY YOU JUST PRINTED $33, YOU
DON’T HAVE TO TAX ANYBODY WITH ANYTHING.
AND WE DON’T KNOW ABOUT
ECONOMICS.
AND JUST TO BE CLEAR YOU WANT
THEM TO PAY MORE.
>> ASKED THEM WHO THE RICH ARE.
THE GOVERNMENT WOULD CONSIDER
RICH.
>> I HAD A WOMAN ON MY SHOW, SHE
WAS A CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATE.
HE WOULD AT LEAST BE THE SAME
PERSON TO COME IN AND SAY, YOU
NEED 20%, THE RICH.
AND HOW MUCH MORE DO YOU WANT?
>> WE WERE TALKING ABOUT
MESSAGING HERE, IS IT $0 AND DO
THE AMERICANS BY THAT OR DID
THEY JUST NOT CARE?
>> Dana: IF YOU ARE BUYING NOT
NOT, AND THE FIRST LESSON IS NO SUCH THING AS A FREE LUNCH.
SUCH THING AS A FREE LUNCH.
AND WE GOT A WAY TO SELL THIS. AND I WOULD HAVE NEVER SEEN
AND I WOULD HAVE NEVER SEEN
SOMETHING SO RIDICULOUS.
THE OTHER THING IS IF DEMOCRATS,
WHEN THEY ARE AND POWER, THEY
RUN UP THE COST OF EVERYTHING.
ALL THE SPENDING, AND THEN IT
GETS ENSHRINED INTO LAW AND
SOMETIMES IT BECOMES VERY
POPULAR.
THEN WHEN IT’S NOT POPULAR
REPUBLICANS ARE IN A
STRAITJACKET BUT I WILL TELL YOU
THIS, THIS WILL HIT MORE PEOPLE
THAN THEY ARE SAYING, IT WON’T
BE JUST A 1%.
WHEN YOU START DIGGING IN ITS
INCOME AND PEOPLE WILL HAVE TO
PAY, THE REPUBLICANS ARE SO
DIVIDED IN THEIR FOCUS ON TOO
MANY SYMBOLIC ISSUES.
>> ON MESSAGING, MESSAGING,
MESSAGING, $80 BILLION IN THE
IRS, OR $80 BILLION FOR THE TRIP
QUALITY, IS THAT REALLY MORE
REPUBLICANS?
OR IS IT LOOKING AT IT AND
SAYING 3 TRILLION?
>> I DON’T THINK THEY ARE JUST
SAYING IT’S NO BIG DEAL.
I WOULDN’T SAY THE ZERO THING
EITHER BECAUSE PEOPLE KNOW WHAT
MONEY IS FLOWING OUT OF THEIR
HOUSES.
WE ARE HAVING CONVERSATIONS
CONSTANTLY.
THE WHITE HOUSE IS AWARE OF IT
BECAUSE WE STARTED TALKING ABOUT
IT AS A PROBLEM.
WE CAN TALK ABOUT THAT LATER AND
I DO UNDERSTAND BASIC ECONOMICS.
AND GEORGE BUSH WAS FIGHTING
PRETTY BIG REPUBLICAN WARS.
AND AMERICANS ARE ALWAYS AT
LEAST ONE NOTCH’S SMARTER THAN
THE PEOPLE WHO ARE TALKING ABOUT
THE BASIC STUFF THAT THEY
HANDLE.
OBVIOUSLY THERE ARE SPECIALISTS
OUT THERE AND IF YOU ARE HONEST
WITH THEM, YOU SAY WE WILL MAKE
THESE PEOPLE PAY A BIT MORE.
AND I UNDERSTAND IN
NEW YORK CITY YOU MIGHT NOT FEEL
THAT RICH EVERYDAY BUT YOU ARE
RICH BY NATIONAL STANDARDS AND
YOU CAN MOVE.
I THINK THAT WOULD BE FINE,
PEOPLE WOULD SAY CORPORATIONS
AND INDIVIDUALS OVER 400K RAISE
THOSE TAXES.
>> DO YOU DRIVE ON THE ROAD?
DO ANY OF YOUR KIDS GO TO PUBLIC
SCHOOLS?
DO YOU LIKE THE LIBRARY?

KYRSTEN SINEMA AND THE SQUAD ARE
