1:13Pumps, I have amazing news for us and maybe like five other people that enjoyed Melania's movie. they've made a new announcement and they're making a tv show listen to one of her special advisors that's the thing so this fall we are following the film with a uh docu-series surrounding the first lady surrounding melania trump it's a completely different uh look at her world it's a completely it's shot entirely different it's completely different because she doesn't live at

1:48Angie Sullivan:the White House. That's A. B, who's asking for this? Who wanted this? Is the biggest bomb ever? Apple, or I'm sorry, Amazon lost a gazillion dollars. But here's the deal. Jeff Bezos doesn't give a shit because he's making Melania rich, which makes Trump happy. So everybody wins. I mean, this is just the most blatant bullshit. And I will just say this. What first lady do you know in the history of the United States that has created a television show about herself after a documentary that nobody fucking watched. And just remember, she's the least popular first lady since they've been keeping track of polling.

2:37Angie Sullivan:So shut. Nobody wanted this. This is a grift, i.e. a bribe. So we all see it what it is. Nobody's going to watch it. And here's the deal. Jeff Bezos doesn't give a shit. No, Beckman says that the series is going to premiere on Prime Video this fall. The original film, like you said, it cost$75 million for Jeff Bezos. It only made$16 million. And reporting shows that she personally received$28 million to do it. So it's literally just a very public grift. Not to mention that it fed her ego. Like everybody talks about, you know, Melania's married to Donald. that sucks. I get that. She's every bit as bad because here's the deal.

3:21Angie Sullivan:If you had a movie about yourself and you were the first fucking lady and nobody watched it, they were like making the military watch it. They were buying tickets because it wasn't selling. So no, I mean, maybe a handful of thousands people saw this. All you are is ego, narcissism, and pride. Doesn't it hurt your pride a little bit? You don't go make like a television show that nobody's going to watch? Isn't that some type of narcissistic injury? I mean, I wouldn't open myself up to it if it was bomb nation. They don't care. Their brain is just like, it doesn't see it that way. You're right. This is what I think.

4:03Because there's no way you would go make a TV show after that failure. There's no explanation for that.

4:08Angie Sullivan:And you know, this was obviously signed on to by bezos in the beginning that's what is not a business decision there's reporting that this was looped in with the original deal yeah yeah i i think that these movies and tv shows are her arts and crafts that trump does this is what they do this is what her energy is because she doesn't have any projects as first lady i mean she doesn't do anything other than her press conference about she wasn't epstein's uh escort and she and donald were introduced by somebody else. We don't see her. But I mean, she lives in New York City, to be fair. It'd be hard to see her when she doesn't even live in D.C.

4:48OK, Todd Blanche. Obviously, we've had Republicans pretending to stand up to him and then backing down very easily. It's all just a show. Susan Collins is the latest to join that show. So Blanche wants to he did a phone call with these Christian lobbyists. And here's what had to say, here's his plans. Rest assured that we're working, you know, hand in hand with with HHS and the FDA and and the White House and President Trump's team to get permanent solutions so that so that the Dobbs decision becomes permanent in every single state.

5:31Angie Sullivan:This is what they're after. This is what they've always been after is women's rights. They've done it on a local level. Now they're doing it on a national level. And here's what I'll say to this. I thought it was always my understanding that Congress is the one that made law. But now he, as Department of Justice Attorney General, he's in charge of that. He's in charge of women's bodies. And let's not forget, he's so worried about fucking children, he's covering up the Epstein class for sex trafficking. This is not someone that gives a frog's fat ass about children, about women. All he wants to do is coddle this right-wing Christian nationalism and be Trump's errand boy.

6:19Angie Sullivan:That's it. That's the list. Also, a super interesting thing about this, the group that posted this, which is IFA Pray, It's basically a Christian lobbyist group that's masked as a church. They took that video down after Politico started pushing it. Because they didn't want people to know. They want this to be a secret. It's just like now the people that were so worried about the less than 1 % of athletes that are trans in the whole entire United States. They were so worried about that. They put all this focus on it. And now it turns out they want women, all women out of sports. Now, instead of it being a state's right, we want all women to be banned from reproductive care.

7:06Angie Sullivan:So this is where we're going. This is who this administration is. And as to Susan Collins, I have a few choice words for Susan Collins. Susan Collins, as everyone remembers, settled law. Brett Kavanaugh said Roe versus Wade was settled law, and that's why she voted for him. And now it is killing her as she is running for president because women have literally died throughout the country because of the Dobbs decision. People have lost their ability to reproduce. They've had to have hysterectomies. Simple, minor issues related to complications with pregnancy that could be handled. No big deal have become so expensive.

7:49Angie Sullivan:of people are put in medical bankruptcy, lost fertility, lost their lives. And that doesn't even get into the mental health issues. Okay. So that's on Susan Collins. And then now I believe the only reason that she is saying she is voting no for Todd Blanch is because she is in the middle of a very competitive race. I don't think she gives a shit about doing anything but kissing Trump's ass, as you can tell by her voting record. I think this is nothing but fluff from her. And I also think that she would not have come out so publicly against Todd Blanche if she didn't already know he had enough to pass in the Senate without her vote.

8:39Angie Sullivan:Because she is trying to save face with Maine voters. And that's a big uphill climb for her. So I hope Maine voters do not vote her in again. I hope Todd Blanche is not confirmed, but he will be because that's how corrupt and full of cowards these Republicans are. So he will be confirmed. And then he's going to run around and start making laws about federalizing abortion because that's who they are. And don't forget, he's going to all this talk about the slush fund. That bitch is coming back. like that bitch is back at the minute he's installed that bitch is back and he will continue to cover up for Donald Trump until he is out of office these are things that I know these are like death and taxes this is what's going to happen I agree with you another thing we've been following is Max Miller the alleged abuser colossal huge huge piece of shit and he makes it more obvious what a piece of shit he is every single time he gets on camera.

9:41Right, he makes it worse. Yep, here he is face planting on Jake Tapper. ...dated to police that your child told her in the days leading up to the discovery of the injury, quote, Daddy, kill you. Now, according to your wife, your daughter articulated these statements to children and family services. I wish you could talk to my beautiful baby girl. She can't string together sentences like that. She's two and a half years old. She doesn't have the ability to articulate any of what you just said. But didn't you just tell me that... I have been through two investigations. You just told me that she had said that she was scared to go to mommy's house.

10:17She is, and I have video of it. But now you're saying that she's not capable of saying, Daddy, kill you? I mean, it seems like she's either able to say one but not the other. That doesn't make sense. Jake, to be very direct, this is incredibly disturbing.

10:34Angie Sullivan:Agree. agree 1 million percent agree here's the deal that was a car crash by any measure he the more he talks the more he sounds guilty because it's obvious he is guilty and i just find it interesting that we see the first statement from his father-in-law senator marino who has sat behind and he says it's been going on for two fucking years but he didn't have the balls to say anything about it until like two days ago. So shame on him because the child has been physically abused by allegations. Her collarbone was broken. A two-year-old collarbone was broken. And here's, this is what, as a former divorce lawyer, when you have a child that you are making say things while you record it, that is the biggest fucking red flag.

11:26Angie Sullivan:Say you don't want to go to mommy's house, say you don't want to go to mommy's house, and then you record your child. This is a two-year-old child. This prick, I hope he gets everything that the law can throw at him. I hope he loses his election because he is the type of person. I just read that he was formerly in an abusive relationship before this. So this is his M.O. He likes to beat up women. That's who this guy is. naturally, I'm sure the whole Republican Party is going to continue to embrace them because that's who they are. Well, here's here's Mike Johnson on Max Miller. And we have to allow this process to play out.

12:07It's just begun. I mean, the president called him. Max Miller said this, that the president called him and told him, you know, things aren't looking good for you. Well, I mean, they don't look good right now, of course. But again, like what should a speaker do in this case. I mean,

12:22Angie Sullivan:okay, Mike, I'll tell you what a speaker should do. A speaker should exercise his leadership capabilities and force this person to resign like the Democrats who were not in power. They didn't have a speaker of the house, but they, they got Eric Swalwell to resign. Mike Johnson, what you are, as you sit on the Bible that you shoved up your ass is a hypocrite that does not give a fuck about women, about protecting children. I mean, this is the whole kit and caboodle. You've got somebody that's alleged to have broken their two-year-old daughter's collarbone and poured scalding water on his wife and his coward father-in-law who is a senator from the same state just now came out and said, yes, this is all happening.

13:14Angie Sullivan:Also in that Jake Tapper interview, he said, you know, he had admitted that he had had mental health issues. So Mike Johnson, what you are is a coward. You are a hypocrite. You are a coward. You hide behind the Bible while you are evil as fuck because you care about nothing but power. All of a sudden, he wants to see what's he supposed to do. Mike, this is a fucking layup. Anything is good. Anything is good. Honestly, I'm surprised he didn't say, well, I just don't know anything about it. I don't know anything about it. I just don't know anything about it. All right, listener, I know a lot of you, as you're sitting here listening to my podcast, you are using this podcast to procrastinate.

13:59Angie Sullivan:Somewhere in your house, you have a little to-do list. And one of the items on that list is make doctor appointment. But the thought of it seems so daunting. How am I going to find an appointment? There's always a long wait list. Will they take my insurance? This is where you must use ZocDoc.

15:11Trump on the tarmac yesterday said he feels bad for Max. Of course he does. Abuser to abuser, that makes sense. That makes perfect sense. Ohio is what Max said he's staying in the race. And Ohio is who keeps reelecting Jim Jordan. So I don't know that he's wrong to think he could still win. Right. Look, I mean. With Republicans.

15:30Angie Sullivan:And here's the deal. In Ohio, Jim Jordan went against male athletes. He did not back up male athletes with whom he was coaching. who was at the Ohio State University. People in Ohio love Ohio State University, and they keep electing Jim Jordan. So I have very little confidence that this is going to, you know, trip the needle. But I find it interesting that Max Miller, as quoted in that interview to Mike Johnson, Trump said, it's not looking good. He didn't say, you are morally and ethically compromised. You do not represent the type of person we want in leadership in the MAGA movement. We need people of strong, moral, and ethical character that have integrity and that believe in equal protections for women and children.

16:28Angie Sullivan:But he didn't say that. They would have a party left. at no he didn't like you said abuser to abuser but he's looking at if the democrat wins that's one more vote to impeach me that's as far and as deep as the trump thought process goes on this miller thing okay i've got an update on mark wayne mullen laura loomer is calling for him to be fired and she spills a little bit of insider tea she writes if the news report today are true about how DHS Secretary Mark Wayne Muslim has reportedly been barred by the White House from doing any more media interviews without their sign-off, then he should be fired.

17:07If you're such an incompetent R-word that you can't be trusted to not completely undermine President Trump and his campaign promises every time you open your mouth, then you cannot be trusted in the Trump cabinet. Fire Mark Wayne Muslim. So Mullen is getting a ton of pushback because he's not racist enough. He's not hateful enough, which i would argue he i would argue he's way at the top of that list i would agree that just shows you where the rest of these nuts are right i also want to say i saw reports that ice had their highest number of arrests in this last month that's not good enough they don't actually care about the policy working no they care about the numbers they're like extreme maximal cruelty

17:50Angie Sullivan:okay here i completely agree with you you're exactly right and again he's one of these that to boost himself, he stands on a box. It's normally his Bible to tell us what a great Christian he is. Yet he is happy to strip families apart, throw people in ICE detention centers that are completely uninhabitable for humans and ship them to countries that they don't know anything about they've never been to. That's all fine with him. He's happy to get people hooked on Kratom because he's profiting from that. But here's the double-edged sword of the Trump administration in their cabinet. When you hire a secretary of Homeland Security, and the reason that you hire them is because they are incompetent, unprepared for the job, and not smart.

18:39Angie Sullivan:When those are the three qualifications that are topped off by, they will do and say whatever Trump wants. Those were his qualifications. He was hired because he's a dipshit. He wasn't hired because he knew anything about Homeland Security or running a budget like that or any type of knowledge or institutional ability to guide the department. He was hired to kiss Trump's ass. And because he was stupid and they could do whatever they wanted, running roughshod over him. So this is what you get when you hire stupid people on purpose because they're stupid. They're going to do stupid things. And Mark Wayne Mullins has never been great in an interview.

19:21Angie Sullivan:This is not news. Him getting on there and using bad grammar and just talking bullshit that doesn't – here's the thing. Trump talks bullshit all the time, but everybody gives him a pass. Mark Wayne Mullins talks in circles that contradict each other, and they don't sound as incoherent as Trump's crazy run-on shit, and he kind of stays on message a little bit. But he ties himself into knots, and then he tries to untie himself. It all goes back to when you hire stupid people because they're stupid. This is what happens. I agree. All right.

19:59Angie Sullivan:It will be out in October.
