TRANSCRIPT
The Republicans stole the election in 2024 because of the purges in all the states.

Yep, but I was also very concerned about the new Greg Palast piece you had on your show, talking about how they are now stealing the 2026 midterm elections.

Correct.

I have been forwarding this to every person I can think of in major media, including MSNBC, and no one wants to touch this. Why is that? I think Trump gave a bad name to questioning the veracity—or whatever the proper word is—the safety of our elections.

Well, this is going to cost us the election, just as it cost us the last one.

Agreed. The total failure—colossal failure—of the media.

It’s not just the media. If the official Democratic Party—if Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer—would raise some hell about this, the media would lose their bashfulness around the topic. They would start talking about it. But you can't find a Democrat who wants to talk about it.

Which is really— I mean, outside of the Black Caucus. The Congressional Black Caucus is all over this.

Greg’s movie Vigilante, Inc.—have you seen that, Alfredo?

Yeah, yeah, I’ve seen it.

But the rest of Congress, the rest of the Democrats, still have their heads in the sand.

One last question, Thom. Why can’t the Democrats walk off the floor and deny a quorum for all these bills? They’re funding everything.

I believe the quorum is a simple majority, and Republicans represent a simple majority. So if the Democrats walk out, it simply reduces the number of Republican votes necessary to get something done. The majority is based on the people voting, not the total number of the House of Representatives itself when it comes to tallying a vote.

If all the Democrats walked out, only half of the Republicans—plus one or two—would need to show up to pass legislation. So you’d be doing them a huge favor. They could go home, they could go on a junket to Thailand—whatever.

So no, that doesn’t work, Alfredo. Sadly, unfortunately. If it did, you would have seen it. Frankly, you would have seen Republicans doing it over the years.

He said it during one of his speeches...." you dont even need to vote, we fixed it"....

[msb]

I will rejoice when we finally have an Impeachment for this entire Administration

[BrianKFreelandSr]

President Biden, Hakim Jeffries, and Chuck Schumer ignored voter suppression. Rep. Jeffries acknowledged that North Carolina voted democratic for the executive branch of government, and Arizona for state senator which should create questions on how Felon/Trump won the 2024 election in swing states that voted for democrats up and down the ticket. The people who supported Vice President Harris deserves answers.

[SquirrelGamez]

What do you mean "no one knows"?
Tons of us believe it and are just waiting for someone to do something about it.

Pennsylvania has never called the winner on Election Day until all mail in and early voting ballots are counted days after. So for Pennsylvania to call it the same night was an eye opener

[carmencollier]

I knew something was up ever since November 5th!! And when Trump admitted on January 19th, I was even more upset!

[warningmode]

I still blame DOJ Merrick Garland For this mess that's going on now and the mess that happened under his watch 4 years to get a Indictment

[NHLAKESGUY]

Oh there’s a reason musk owns him and Russia

[metoo-xy]

Who didnt see this? Never ever ever has a presidential election been called 3 hours before the polls closed...chainsaw strikes again

[CS-dgdn]

Of course they did. Musk said himself."anything can be hacked ".

[wendycampion]

I have been saying this all along, REVOTE, RECOUNT, REACT.

[cynthiamarie]

It sickens me that Democrats are afraid to fight back.

[glenncurry]

And everyone is afraid to even mention it!

[philoctetes_wordsworth]

My mother worked for Al Green for years, while he was a Justice of the Peace, in Houston. Now, he is our Congressman, and I could not be more proud of him! He is the lone patriot of the Democratic Party. Well, he and Bernie Sanders.🤗🤗🤗

[crunchydreams]

Yes they did. And he stole the 2016 one too.

[dougcarmichael]

I’m so sick of Schumer and Jeffries being weak.

[sa.]

I am so Upset at the Democrats for not doing anything!!

[mitziliias]

I have been a Democrat for over 40 years and have never been more angry, disgusted and disillusioned or felt more abandoned, betrayed or embarrassed by a person, group or party than I do right now by the Democratic party. This was the most important election of our lifetime; at least it was for me, for all the high ranking Republican's who went public with their decision, for all the young people who registered to vote for the first time and for millions of Democrats and Independents who knew what was at stake....our democracy, the rule of law, our Constitution, our freedoms and our future, which was to continue building on the wonderful foundation laid by Joe Biden. These were monumental stakes important to everyone and had this been a free and fair election, so coined by Trump as being the only kind he'd accept, Kamala would have won by a landslide, but it was only free and fair to Trump which is why he accepted it. I knew the minute the race was over that something nefarious had happened, because with all that was at stake, there is NO WAY IN HELL all those people would have made the conscious decision to sit this election out. Instead of

[SophieH-nk]

Why didn't they ask for a recount! What is going on with these Democrats not standing up for the American people!!

[MP]

Why do you think that Trump went so quiet for 3 weeks after winning? He didn’t want to be questioned about the validity of the results this time.
