Former Minnesota Congresswoman Michele Bachmann discusses Mitch McConnell undercutting the House Republican recent message of reigning in government spending, immigration, or a strong policy towards China. The former Presidential candidate says that the Republican base is not for him anymore, saying McConnell’s “time is over,” and “America no longer has the appetite for big spending, simply because we can't. We're looking at a broke treasury, people's lives aren't doing well privately because government is stealing their money and spending it. And so people really do want a change and I hope that Mitch McConnell will take the hint and enjoy the rest of his life with his wife quietly in Kentucky.“See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Monica Crowley, host of the Monica Crowley Podcast, discusses the need for a change in Republican party leadership, and the current state of affairs in America today is the “culmination of decades of communist infiltration in this country, infiltrating and grabbing control over the major pillars of our society and our life.” The former United States Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Public Affairs comments on the current Republican leadership saying, commenting “I am not supporting Ronna McDaniel,” “we desperately need a change at the top. You're exactly right about the GOP leadership, which happens to be GOP ‘E’ or GOP establishment leadership. The Republican Party right now has establishment folks at the top that do not have our best interests at heart, they are are more than willing to sell America downstream for their own benefit. While, the base is now America first, with or without Donald Trump.” Saying, “the base now is fully America first. And so the disconnect between our leadership and the base and the average Republican voters and not just that, but disaffected Democrats, independent voters who are looking for a change and really want to salvage America. They look at the GOP leadership, and they're like, What is this? They're all in the same boat, and they're all rowing the same direction. So to the extent that we can control it, which is the RNC race.” Crowley comments her “two qualifications now for anybody running for office or republican leadership.” First, “you have to get that the hour is very late in America, you have to understand the nature of the enemy within. And Second, you cannot be in on the destruction of the country and so many of our leaders are in on the destruction of the country, and we've had enough.”See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Ira Shapiro is the author of two previous critically acclaimed books about the Senate: The Last Great Senate: Courage and Statesmanship in Times of Crisis and Broken: Can the Senate Save Itself and the Country? Shapiro resides in Bethesda, Maryland. In two previous highly regarded books on the U.S. Senate, Ira Shapiro chronicled the institution from its apogee in the 1970s through its decline in the decades since.Now, Shapiro turns his gaze to how the Senate responded to the challenges posed by the Trump administration and its prospects under President Biden. The Founding Fathers gave the US Senate many functions, but it had one fundamental responsibility—its raison d’etre: to provide the check against a dangerous president who threatened our democracy.Two hundred and thirty years later, when Donald Trump, a potential authoritarian, finally reached the White House, the Senate should have served as both America’s first and last lines of defense. Instead, we had the nightmare scenario: today’s Senate, reduced through a long period of decline to a hyper-partisan, gridlocked shadow of its former self, was unable to meet its fundamental responsibility. Shapiro documents the pivotal challenges facing the Senate during the Trump administration, arguing that the body’s failure to provide leadership represents the most catastrophic failure of government in American history. The last section covers the Senate’s performance during President Biden’s first year in office and looks forward to the 2022 Senate elections and beyond. https://irashapiroauthor.com/politics, Senate, Trump, Mitch McConnell, Republicans, Democrats, United States, hyper-partisanIntro/Outro music: High Life Richard Smithson Hosted on Acast.
