TALK TO ME, TEXT IT

Could the largest deportation in history become reality, or is it just a political pipe dream? Explore the controversial plans Donald Trump has in mind, including his confirmation on Truth Social to declare a national emergency to deport migrants using military assets—a move stirring up potential legal challenges with the Posse Comitatus Act looming in the background. We also tackle Nancy Mace's proposed Capitol bathroom bill, fraught with tensions over transgender rights, as it aims to restrict access based on biological sex. Brace yourself for a candid discussion on the political ripples each of these actions could send through the nation, along with our anticipation of the backlash they may attract in terms of language used around transgender identities.

On a lighter note, ever wondered what Joe Scarborough’s reaction was to the rumor of being a potential vice-presidential pick by Donald Trump? Hear the surprising tale of how that speculation left Joe feeling a tad disappointed. We also share a fun and reflective segment that invites you to think about activities you feel too old for but still relish. From rowing to bold fashion choices, including makeup and wigs, we embrace the joy of doing what we love, regardless of age. It's a thoughtful, yet entertaining dive into current controversies and personal quirks that will keep you engaged and reflective.

Speaker 1:

Hello and good morning. Happy Tuesday. It is raining here in North Alabama. I don't know if you can hear it or not in the background. If you do, I apologize for the background noise of the rain. Alright, let's go over here. We have three topics.

Speaker 1:

Megan Kelly goes off on Morning Joe yesterday on her show oh my gosh, I wish y'all could go listen to it. And then we have a representative. Nancy mace introduces capital bathroom bill. I knew it, this would happen. I'm so glad because of this mcbride man wearing a dress is now a congressperson. And then we have trump confirms plans to use military to deport migrants after declaring national emergency. Those are the three topics. Let's start with this one. Let's start with the immigration and using the military. This is from the New York Post.

Speaker 1:

President-elect Trump confirmed Monday he would declare a national emergency to deport illegal migrants using military assets once he steps back into office early next year. And what I have to say to that is good. I have no qualms, no problems with this whatsoever. You may, but I don't. Trump made the statement on Truth Social, responding true to a post from judicial watch chief tom fitzen, expressing hope that the president-elect would do so. Good news reports are the incoming real donald trump administration prepared to declare a national emergency and will use military assets. Okay, we already know that. We just said that. How, how many times does this article have to repeat that? All right, trump has vowed to enact the largest deportation in history, starting when he takes the oath of all. Okay, we already know that. Again, different paragraph, different way of saying the same damn thing, just to get more words in More word count. The same damn thing, just to get more words in More word count.

Speaker 1:

Any attempt to use active duty troops would be subject to legal challenges, as the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878. I don't know if I pronounced that correctly or not Limits the federal government's use of military to enforce domestic policy. I don't care, I know I should. Maybe I should care. The rule of law, the act does not prohibit the National Guard from serving in a law enforcement capacity. A law enforcement capacity, however, an immigration and customs enforcement. Ice source confirmed to the post that the military is barred from performing.

Speaker 1:

Constable, constable, oh my gosh. Constable, constable, I can't pronounce it. You know what I'm trying to say? C-o-n-s-t-a-b-u-l-a-r-y Duties without congressional authorization. Constabulate, oh my gosh, I want to keep wanting to put an extra T in there, constab, I can't. Okay, we're going on, sorry, all right.

Speaker 1:

If the incoming administration were to pursue such a strategy, it might involve deploying National Guard units or other military resources under different legal frameworks, potentially framing it as a public safety or humanitarian effort, the person said. However, this approach would most certainly provoke considerable backlash from civil rights groups and the public. Of course it's going to, no matter what Donald Trump does. It's going to no matter what Donald Trump does. It's going to cause backlash If he parts his hair in a different direction. It's going to cause backlash from the lefties who can't stand him. Of course, I don't know what the legalities are, but you know what this current administration. They use the military down at the border with administrative work, with paperwork, so shut your mouth.

Speaker 1:

Okay, we are moving on to the next one. You can go finish reading that if you would like. All right, nancy representative. Nancy mace introduces capital bathroom bill. Incoming transgender poll politician.

Speaker 1:

Mr mcbride responds they're called. They're calling McBride by his name. That he wishes to be called by Sarah. I am refusing to do that. I will call him Mr McBride because that's what he is. He's a man. I don't care, jeffy, if he's had surgery or not, like Jeffy's always saying. No, rachel Levine is a woman, she's. She's had the surgery, I don't care. First of all, I don't think dick levine has had the surgery. If he has, he's still a fucking man there. I've said it. All right, we are going on with the story.

Speaker 1:

I was going to write about this at the Victory Girls blog this morning. However, somebody already beat me to it. They have an article out. We'll go look at that here in just a minute too, because they always have great writers over there at victorygirlsblogcom. But anyway, this one is from the New York Post. We're going to go over it briefly. I'm so glad.

Speaker 1:

I was expecting this from marjorie taylor green, but nancy mace, same thing unveil. So nancy mace unveiled a resolution on monday that would ban transgender women. There's no such thing as transgender gender women. Okay, they're men. So we're banning men from using female bathrooms inside the Capitol building. How many times do I have to say this? How many times do we have to get it through your freaking heads that it's not a transgender woman, it is a man? If we would all start using that correct language, we wouldn't be here. All right, here, all right, drawing immediate criticism from democrats representative elect, mr mcbride, who will be the first openly transgender member of congress. No, he'll be the first man wearing a dress in congress. The resolution calls for prohibition on house members and employees from using restrooms, changing rooms or locker rooms other than those corresponding to the biological sex of each individual in the Capitol or in-house office buildings.

Speaker 1:

The fact that we have to draw up a bill and get it through and make it law is ridiculous, just like these women in sports who are having to forfeit all of their games. Not play against the men is ridiculous. So we're just going to stop playing sports. That's what's going to happen. There will be no more women's sports because we've quit. Because we quit, that's people.

Speaker 1:

I can't. I still can't wrap my head around everybody who is on board with this. I think I'm the only person in the United States who says they should not quit. I mean, I don't want them to play against men. Of course not, because they can get hurt, possibly even get killed. Of course I don't want them to play against men, but the point is that the men shouldn't be playing to begin with. That's what we need to change, and I guess they think by women quitting, that's going to change it, has it? I mean, maybe, I don't know, I could be wrong about that. All right, we're going on with this article.

Speaker 1:

Her proposal comes weeks after Delaware voters elected Mr McBride to represent the state-at-large congressional district. When he is sworn in, mcbride will become the first openly man in address in Congress. Mcbride 34, slammed Mesa's resolution as a distraction. You can go finish reading that. I want to go see what the Victor Girls has to say about that. Let's see what they wrote about it. Let's see. I have to type it in. Here we go. I know I should have been more prepared. I apologize. Here we go, victor Girls.

Speaker 1:

The title is Nancy Mace May Propose Capital Restroom Legislation South Carolina Congress critter. Nancy Mace, why do you got to call her Congress critter? Come on. Nancy Mace may propose legislation that would. Because a lot of the some Republican women conservatives don't like Nancy Mace. They don't like Marjorie Taylor Greene. They're firebrands. They don't like them. They're of the old. They come from the old-fashioned Republicans of Ronald Reagan years. So that's why they don't like some of these women. But I like them. I like them All right. So let's start over. South Carolina Congress Critter. That's what they're typing in here. Nancy Mace may propose legislation that would require those in the US House. We already know this. Okay, you can go read that article. I've shared it. I think I've shared it on my Twitter feed, but my good friend Tony Williams wrote it. I guess she doesn't like Nancy Mace either, but I think she definitely agrees with this proposal, because I know Tony is probably against this too. All right, let's see.

Speaker 1:

Let's move back over to Twitter and do my last podcast topic, which is Megan Kelly rips lefty. Msnbc Morning. Joe host for meeting with Trump An absurd farce. Joe host for Meeting with Trump an absurd farce. I listen to Megyn Kelly every day, monday through Friday, live as she does her show on SiriusXM. I wish to God that she would do the live show on her YouTube channel as well, so I could watch it instead of because she plays a lot of video and she's like, oh, look at this, oh, look at this, oh, look at this, knowing that it'll go up on her YouTube channel later, but I'm listening to it and I can't see it. Megan, we need to do a live video feed, please. I think I'm going to start tagging her every day for that. Mms.

Speaker 1:

Nbc morning joe host and don and donald trump detractors, joe scarborough and mika brzezinski, as dishonest jokes. After the pair revealed on their show, monday morning they met with the president-elect of okay, and this is what she said she, she, um, language coming, language incoming. She set this whole thing on her show. Yesterday megan kelly told us all about what happened with morning joe she. They went down there and she said and here's what I have to say to them, here's my advice to morning joe after doing this go fuck yourselves. She said it twice oh, my gosh, uh, go fuck yourselves. The conservative podcast host said in her message to the lefty broadcast couple go fuck yourselves. You dishonest jokes of faux journalists. Oh, yes, you can go finish reading that if you would like. Oh, it's just. Isn't it just typical of morning joe?

Speaker 1:

And I found too you guys probably already knew this, but apparently Morning Joe was all over Trump back in the day when he was first running for president and he actually thought that Trump was going to pick him for his vice presidency. Where in the world did he get that absurd idea, goodness gracious? And I guess he got all butthurt when Trump did not pick him for his vice president. I mean really, joe, you really thought he was going to pick you. Come on. All right, we need to move on to the question of the day. All right, this question is I don't know the word for it it's subjectional. I don't know, is that it? I don't even know if that's even a word. All right, subjective. I think that's what. I think that's the right word I'm looking for.

Speaker 1:

All right, name something that you are too old to do but you still enjoy doing it. Mine would be got lots of things, lots of things, just my whole existence, I guess, probably wearing makeup and false eyelashes and bold lipsticks and wigs and probably long hair. I don't know it. I've kind of I've just taken to rowing. Now I feel like I'm too old to do, you know, heavy lifting. I don't do heavy lifting. I haven't done heavy lifting in years. I used to do that, but the older I get, it's like no, I don't want to do heavy lifting anymore. So, yeah, name something you were too old to do, but you still kind of enjoy it. All right, gotta go.
