Transcript excerpt

I am tired of fixing shit Republicans break. And this is what I've said to my Democratic leadership. Could you please be more blunt, Better? Yeah. I am trying What happened in the Biden administration was we fixed all the stuff that Trump broke, and Republicans broke in their administration. But we didn't do anything innovative, and didn't we didn't make people's lives better. We just spent the time putting out fires and trying to solve the pandemic. I'm tired. I'm done with that. We we spent time on the Democratic party tier our leadership being polite, not wanting to break the filibuster because, oh, Good forbid, if we blow up the filibuster tier they might do it to us. Tier not gonna do it. We're gonna give their supreme court nominees, you know, the the full process. We're gonna do everything by the good. And what I've told democratic leadership is like, cut that out. You've seen what happened. They steamrolled us as soon as they took over. And it was to the detriment of the American people, and it was to the detriment of America's national security around the world. So fuck that shit.
