Back when Democrats held majorities in the House and the Senate 2009,
when you were speaker.
President Obama was asked about codifying roe versus wade and said abortion
is a moral and ethical issue and quote, not the highest legislative priority.
Do you think it was a mistake for him for
other presidents not to push harder when Democrats had the majority?
>> If I just may the focus we have right now is an urgent
one in order to trying to improve this, what we're
calling it fake or draft decision, whatever it is.
I think that this is a waste of time, the fact is in O nine,
we really did not have a pro choice Democratic Party.
I had to fight against some of the people who did not want to pass the affordable
care Act because they were concerned that it might enable,
more freedom of choice and it really didn't go down that path.
>> I don't think that question is a waste of time.
I think it's important for Democrats to learn from their own history and
to learn from their own failures.
And for her to specifically site that Congress didn't have enough pro
choice Democrats is honestly not something I'm willing to buy.
Democrats had a super majority in the beginning of Obama's administration.
And I would venture to say, considering how harshly the Democratic Party,
the establishment Democratic Party fights against progressive lawmakers.
I'm pretty sure they could have found the ability to sway some of
the more conservative elements of their party.
But if we're to take Pelosi statement there at face value or
to just believe what she's saying,
wouldn't she be against supporting anti choice Democrats today.
But that's not what's going on Nancy Pelosi is strongly endorsing
a conservative democrat in Texas named Henry Cuellar who was the only
no vote on a house bill that would codify reproductive rights for women.
So she's full of it and I love how salty she gets the second someone tries
to point to the failures of the Democratic Party and its leadership.
The fact of the matter is market Brennan is not gonna do a decent job
in saying exactly what needs to be said.
So we'll say it here,
Nancy Pelosi along with the Democratic Party has failed the American people.
They failed their base, they failed their voters, they
failed the people who have done the hard work on the ground to get out the vote.
They have failed their small dollar donors, they are failures.
When you look at a photo of Nancy Pelosi or Chuck Schumer or
anyone else in Democratic leadership, you need to understand that they failed you.
They will continue to fail you and they will be furious with you if you point that
out, but this is supposed to be a country that is, we get to decide whether or
not our elected leaders are representing our best interests.
They're not representing our best interests and
I find it hilarious that she thinks that she's entitled to a round of applause
even though she has failed us in the past.
She is failing us in the present and she will certainly fail us in the future.
That is the Democratic Party brand.
>> Okay, so it's amazing that she said, well,
we just didn't have enough pro choice Democrats at the time.
It was almost certainly a lie, they had huge majorities but okay,
let's take it at face value.
Okay, because I know everybody in Washington,
you can't say that about the speaker.
You have to just kiss her ass and assume everything she says is golden printed and
never fact check it.
Okay, but okay, let's so let's take let's be Washington media and
assume that she's telling the truth.
Not enough pro choice Democrats, the obvious follow up question is then why
are you in the middle of campaigning right now for an anti choice Democrat?
It's the most obvious question of all time,
obviously it didn't get asked that's mainstream media.
I mean, I asked my friends today who mainly watched mainstream media from back
in the day, most of them have never heard that Nancy Pelosi is fighting tooth and
nail for an anti choice legislator.
He could break the tie with the Republicans and make sure that Rose never
codified and she's dying to get him in and later when she loses the vote.
She'll say, well, I didn't have enough pro choice Democrats, but you're but
wait a minute, you're doing that right now, but we're not talking about 2000 and
you're doing it right now?
Why, but on the other hand, Quasar is also being investigated by the FBI.
Wait, what it is way more likely to lose the general election.
So what's the catch if you're in or me as your new and you just came out of
like watching only MSNBC and CNN you're like, this is such strange things.
I've never heard design cable news, why would she be doing that?
Well, Quasar is running against Jessica Cisneros who's a progressive and
Pelosi and
Democratic leadership despise progressives because they're not corrupted.
There like they're embarrassing us, we're supposed to take hoards of cash.
Like where did sometimes illegally stuff it into our pockets and and
use it to accrue power.
And the problem is that if we ever do anything for our constituents,
then we can't find a way a good reason to fundraise off of them.
So, this is now that row is going to be overturned Pelosi's probably ecstatic,
she's gonna raise gobs of money from this and she knows they're never gonna fix it.
So she thinks, my God, I'm gonna raise money off of this for
the next decade, you think she's not gonna be honest, she's gonna be around okay.
So, and the queen in Washington, Pelosi is to never be criticized.
So whenever I do criticize or the people like literally jump out of their seats,
that happened in a panel and political on David from the loser who did so
many losing presidential candidate campaigns.
Jumped out of his seat and said,
how dare you, you have besmirched the reputation of Nancy Pelosi.
She was passed so many things, I said, okay, great, we're on the panel together,
it's all on tape.
What did she pass, she passed Obamacare.
Obamacare was written by a right wing think tank Heritage Foundation mandates
that you buy from private health insurance companies who donated to Obama and
the rest of them.
And especially the author of the bill max Baucus and
was originally championed by Mitt Romney.
That's the only thing I said, okay, good, look, we can debate whether
that was an important piece of right wing legislation to pass or not.
But give me one other thing she passed, I mean,
she's had like 2030 40 50 years, what does she passed.
She couldn't even pass role with a codifying roll with
a supermajority because she doesn't want to pass it.
Neither did Obama, neither does Biden all they care about is money power.
My me, they're screwing you on purpose for their own power.
That's who Nancy Pelosi is, I don't believe any of the liars in mainstream
media who are currently all covering for her, look, just one last thing on this.
If Donald Trump this week had come out and said, you know what, I'm gonna be for
a candidate that's pro choice.
He believes in the right to abortion and I'm endorsing him,
what do you think would happen?
You all know it, even if you were brainwashed to the end of time by New York
times and division Democrats care about you.
You all know what would happen if there would be headlines everywhere Donald Trump
endorses pro abortion care.
My God, what a hip hop is unbelievable, right?
Pelosi does that Clyburn doesn't like don't tell anyone because if
you tell people then they'll know that Pelosi is a fraud.
It doesn't mean anything she says that would be reporting,
it wouldn't be marketing for corporate Democrats.
That's why almost no reporters doing it by the way, I always give credit
where credit is due NBC news of all people had an article about this.
So I'll give them credit everyone else,
that's the Queen we all lie for her.
>> And people have been noticeably furious with our show.
I've noticed that even majority reports been getting some criticism because of
the I would argue incredibly constructive feedback that we have for
Democratic leadership.
And the question I have for those people who are so
hyper focused on angry at Republicans, which I understand I hate Republicans to.
Can't stand them, they're the ones who are fighting to strip our rights away from us,
but our line of defense, I had a line of offense but we have a line of defense,
right supposedly.
And that's the Democratic Party and they're failing you want us
to do you want us to give them a pat on the back and enable their failures?
>> Yes, that's what they want.
>> Them on failing us okay I'm not interested in that.
So if you're watching the show and you wanna see a bunch of hosts who tell you
pretty little lies so you can feel good about yourself.
You're watching the wrong show, they have failed you, it's done, it's over,
they failed you.
For me, this issue was the final issue, it's the nail in the coffin for
Democratic leadership for me over it's done.
Okay, I'm not interested in enabling them, they've had way too many chances and
you're absolutely right.
They see this not as a tragedy in the country, not not as a tragedy for
all the women who are likely going to die because they're still gonna try to get
an abortion, likely an illegal abortion, an abortion that might even kill them.
They don't see that as they see this as a moment of celebration,
they're not saying it to you but their actions would prove otherwise.
>> Look, guys.
>> They're out there shilling for hold on, I'm not done shilling for Henrik,
we are okay.
And then they're also doing what collecting the bucks beaucoup bucks,
this is great it's all about the fundraising for them.
It has been about the money and
nothing more ever since the Supreme Court opened the floodgates and
allowed unlimited campaign contributions into the coffers of our politicians.
Yes, including the Democratic Party ever since that happened,
the Democratic Party has quickly morphed into the Republican Party.
Substantively, frankly, they're a little different rhetorically week.
But I would ask you when it comes to substantive when it comes to bread and
butter issues.
It's really that different from the Republican Party.
I mean, it's amazing how they're getting pats on the back as we speak,
because look at the wonderful bipartisan way in which Congress has allocated
billions of dollars in military spending for Ukraine, isn't it so wonderful?
Yeah, it's because they have the same defense contractor donors, you idiots,
that's why.
>> Okay, so first of all, when they are theoretically on our side,
rhetorically as Anna pointed out, which some Democrats brag about like,
hey, we say the right words.
Well, that's just marketing your votes and what you pass don't pass,
or the only thing that matters like, hey, we have good marketing for
our lives is not a winning campaign slogan.
Although it is in Washington, they think, they're so good at lying,
give me plus is give me a pluses, they raise so much money, they're so credible.
Right, if you're good at lying, you're credible in Washington, isn't it,
it's just incredible.
All right but I want to go to Chuck Schumer real quick, guys, so
Chuck Schumer right now, there's good progressive groups.
They meanwhile they're trying to pressure Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski to
override the filibuster, because if the two Republicans joined the Democrats.
You won't even need Mansion or even necessarily cinema and
get rid of the filibuster and actually codify roe, it's actually doable.
Right, Chuck, Schumer isn't gonna even bring that up for a vote, so
what are we wasting our time for?
Why are you pressuring Murkowski and
Collins on a vote that isn't even gonna happen because Chuck Schumer decided.
He didn't want to embarrass Mansion in cinema that protecting
his corrupt colleagues was more important than protecting women's rights.
So for the democratic cheerleaders in the audience who say, like,
if you just cheer louder for the Democrats and Pelosi and Schumer and Biden will win?
How would we win, he's not even gonna introduce the vote,
we have absolutely no chance of winning.
Is that because I didn't cheer loud enough for Schumer or
is that because Schumer decided he's not gonna have the vote.
What are you on me for [LAUGH] what do you care, asked Schumer for the vote.
No, your idea is no don't ask Schumer for the vote,
cheerlead him not even voting on this issue and
giving up preemptively, how would that help you codify rose.
So we could have a choice in this country,
you're agreeing to give up your rights because a democrat is doing it.
Look, man, you'll never be able to explain that to anybody.
The only reason that anybody actually any actual human being believes that is
because, man, their brain has been thoroughly watched by mainstream media.
It doesn't matter how much the Democrats screw you.
It doesn't matter that they never pass any bills,
it doesn't matter that they lie in every campaign, and
it it doesn't matter that they do the same exact thing as Republicans.
You have to support the Democrats.
Well, okay, to each his own [LAUGH], but
it's our policy funeral, none of our policies are gonna pass.
Super last thing, look, you can tell who's right and who's wrong
if you're one of those skeptical man, I owe the Democrats didn't work.
Did it pass, okay you just wanna cheer louder and you want us to
do propaganda and lies on their behalf, okay, just think about this, guys.
I said that $15 minimum wage wouldn't pass because the Democrats
don't actually want it everybody in Washington said that it was scandalous.
It was outrageous claim Pelosi Schumer bind,
they all said it's easily gonna pass, it didn't pass.
You know why not just the Republicans eight not two eight Democrats
voted against it in the Senate, they never intended to pass it.
They knew they didn't have the votes and that the Democrats or democratic
colleagues were gonna join the Republicans in making sure that you had lower wages.
I was right everyone in Washington was wrong and by the way, if you say, yeah,
you pay cherry picker, whatever excuse you make for failures.
Okay, then I'll tell you in the future, okay, I'll tell you right now,
there's a 0% chance they're gonna codify road, they're not even gonna try.
So you just but please do your own research, see if Chuck Schumer
calls the filibuster vote, then you'll know, do they, who was right?
Were we right or were we wrong and if we just kissed Schumer and Pelosi's asked
more that they somehow would have miraculously one without a vote.
There are verifiable facts in the world, so
a lot of you have gotten free of broken of those chains.
But a lot of you live in a completely alternate reality,
just like the Trump supporters and you don't even know it.
You don't just like the right wing doesn't realize they've been brainwashed,
look into actual facts.
They're not even going to vote on it, the whole thing is theater everyone,
including the so called reporters, are lying to you.
They'll tell you that they're not gonna vote on it but
all the headlines are Democrats fight hard, Democrats are unbelievable pro
choice while they're actually campaigning for an anti choice candidate.
The lies are unreal
