Hey everybody and welcome to the Rogue Recap. I am Linda McLaughlin. Please like, subscribe, and follow me at The Rogue Recap and at Linda Mick. Love to hear from you. Would love to hear what you're thinking because I certainly am telling you what I'm thinking. So today it's about, it's 1115 at night here watching House rules and votes and meetings and side deals and all sorts of other things with regard to the President's

One big, beautiful bill. And of course, there's just a complete cacophony of errors. And let me just start by saying that I love President Trump. I think he's great. I think he's got a lot of really bad people around him, but that's a conversation for another day. The thing that bothers me the most about what's happening is

Is there are things that could be easily fixed and they're not. And I don't know why. For example, we have a parliamentarian, Elizabeth McDonough, who was put in place by Democrat leaders. And I cannot figure out why we haven't fired her.

It's very easy to fire her. She's not elected by the people. She's appointed by politicians. And so there are two people that can put her in her place. One is the vice president and one is the majority leader, which would be John Thune, who obviously is a rhino. And we all know that he's just Mitch McConnell-lite.

But the issue is they haven't gotten rid of her and I can't really figure out why. Her role is to advise the Senate and give them sort of a guideline on policy and procedural types of things when it comes to various types of legislation and votes and so on and so forth. It is not to redline a bill that comes in from elected members of the House

who put together a bill that did not contain, I don't know, Medicaid for illegal aliens. Other various taxpayer expenses for illegal aliens, whether it's housing or helping them when they first get across the border to find their host family, all this crap that should not be coming out of taxpayer dollars. Why are we doing anything for illegal aliens?

The whole reason they're called illegal aliens is because they've entered the country illegally. They're not coming here for asylum because then they would be asylum seekers, right? And so when you're seeking asylum, it's because you are in fear of your life. You're in grave peril from your home country. That's not happening. These people are sending money back and repatriating billions of dollars into their home countries. Well, if you liked it so much, why'd you leave?

well because you want to make money here send it back there deplete the system here it's a vicious cycle and i'm very very grateful that legislation was just passed to actually stop the repatriation of a made money made in america so that's great but now we have this parliamentarian elizabeth mcdonough who's clearly a liberal

And I don't know, maybe she's not a liberal. Maybe she's just a moron. Maybe she's just so deep in the paint. She doesn't even know what right and wrong is anymore. I don't know her. I don't care to know her. I just don't want her involved in any sort of legislative process because her whole role is to advise. It's not to say, hey, guys, give me a red pen. Give me an hour and I'll make this what it should be.

Because like I said, we're getting Medicaid for illegal aliens. We're getting transgender, gender affirming care for, you know, youth and, and, you know, I'm talking like kids, you know, this is the whole issue that I have with gender affirming care. You know, when you're,

I don't know, nine, 10, 11, 12 years old. You have no idea who you are, what you are, what you want to be. I mean, my God, if my son came down and said, I want to be Spider-Man and put on a Spider-Man mask, I wouldn't tell him to jump out the window. I tell him, okay, that's nice. Put your sneakers on, take the mask off because you can't see where you're going.

But these people, they like validate their children at every whim and turn. Like that's not how you raise kids. I'm not here to be your friend. I'm here to be your parent. I'm trying to be your friend, but sometimes it's a little difficult. So, you know, I'm going to keep trying to be your parent.

But then they'd say that they're going to allow it for 13-year-olds and 14-year-olds who are going through puberty and the hormones and all the things. And unfortunately, we have an education system and an after-school system filled with coaches and teachers who are grooming and attacking our children right in front of our eyes.

Because we're not paying attention, obviously. Every time I turn around, there's another coach who just assaulted, raped. There's a coach out in San Francisco, I think it is, that murdered one of the kids. He was a young boy. He got him drunk. He was 13 years old. He raped him and then he murdered him. He's a soccer coach. I mean, this is the problem. We're in a very different world. We can't leave our children alone.

with anybody at any time unless we know them really, really well. And even then sometimes we can't. So the whole idea of being a hover mom, if that's what I sound like, you're right, I am. And I'm concerned because I think people, it's funny too, because they don't realize they're giving their kids all these devices. My God, do you have any idea the subliminal messaging? You know, my youngest the other day asked me if he could play Roblox.

And I had just done a bunch of research into Roblox probably about six months ago because the kids were all playing it. And it's not a new game. It's been around for a while, but I was just like, this game is so disgusting and so suggestive. It's got,

hotel scenes and private rooms. And it tells parents that you have all of these abilities to control who interacts with your child and you'll know and this and that. But it's all, it's total and utter nonsense. These people can come in, they can be 45 years old, pretending to be a 10 year old. They backdoor into the game. They go around, they're able to hack into it. And there was a whole report on it. Not one, not two, but several.

And so I've been sharing this with as many parents as I can, but they, you know, they get the kids because the characters are cute. They look cartoony. They're running around. They look like they're just having a good time, right? But they're not. They're nefarious. And so it's really scary. I obviously told my son he can't play it. And I'm really sorry that I'm the only mean mom that doesn't let their child play Roblox, but so be it because I am. So anyways, you know, I look at all of these things and how people are, you know, trying to raise their children.

In a very, very difficult time and in a very difficult world and in some countries right now, and even parts of our own country, in these very sort of liberal states, they'll take your kids away because you want to raise them and say to them, hey, Jenny, I know you think you're a boy right now, but in five years, you're not going to think that. And we see a bunch of kids that are detransitioning. And then you have this Elizabeth McDonough.

who is putting this legislation in so that we create as, you know, I was talking to a coworker of mine and a friend, and she was explaining to me, you know, it's not just whether or not you ideologically believe and agree with the whole trans movement. What they're not understanding is they're creating an entire population that is dependent on a healthcare system that they've created to solve a problem that they've created.

So we've got your solution. We've got your problem. We're taking your money. You have no way out. And nobody's any the wiser. They think that you're the savior. How can you be the villain and the savior? I guess you can be if you convolute the issue enough and make it all about social justice and recognition and all this crap. It's not. It's none of that. In fact, it's the exact opposite is the weakening. And it is a fraud that is being taken out against our kids.

This whole trans thing, you know, I'm a believer that you're born gay. That's my opinion. But trans, that's a man-made, manufactured psyop that has been put against this society that has been weakened over time. You know, and if you look at, you know, the men and women of yesteryear, they weren't heavy.

They weren't. They worked out. They ate healthy. You know why? Because they weren't trying to kill us with our food. And when, you know, they try to take, they put all these hormones in our food. God knows what they're doing to us. That's why I buy all my food from like the middle of the country where there's no antibiotics, no this, no that. But now we've got all these people going out saying, oh yeah, we're going to, you know, we're going to make it a mandate. What are you talking about? Leave the farmers alone for God's sakes. Haven't they been through enough between Obama and Biden?

Enough already. That's a whole other conversation. It's another show. We'll get into agriculture and the FDA another day.

But Elizabeth McNunna, I keep saying her name because I want you guys to remember it. She puts this line item in that we are going to allocate funds from taxpayer dollars to gender affirming care. We're going to do this for transgenders. We're going to continue funding for LGBTQ education. So now we're going to be in the classroom and we're going to give health care to illegal aliens. And this is all going to be done by a person who we didn't vote for. Oh, and now we're going to finish up this 940 page bill.

just in time for everybody to get to the beach for July 4th. How the hell are you going to go and celebrate Independence Day with good conscience after you just sent a bill back to the House filled with a bunch of crap that has nothing to do with what the GOP and the MAGA movement voted for? You know, President Trump has given these people all of the tools in the world.

And while this might be the biggest tax cut in history, while this might be one of these moments in time, right? These pivotal moments where if he codifies these tax cuts, then anybody making a half a million dollars or less will benefit. Wonderful. That's awesome, right? Because that's the new middle class. If you've got a family, if you've got a mortgage and you're living in this economy and you're making under a half a million dollars, you're probably having a hard time and somewhere in that scale. And you could use a really nice tax cut.

The issue is if you're continuing to allocate those tax dollars that you saved to those programs you disagree with so that you have to now have to raise the debt ceiling, then what is the point of having the debt ceiling? Isn't that the whole reason why we have one? To restrict the movement, to give us a guideline to work within, but we're not doing that. And then we get mad at

At people in the House who are saying, I don't agree with this. This is not this is not OK. This is not what I want. And it's not like the Democrats were like, I want more money for illegal aliens. I want more money for welfare. I want more money for the CHIP program. It's none of that stuff.

These are Republicans that are saying, I don't want illegal aliens on Medicaid. Medicaid should be for American citizens. Then they try to scare people and say, oh, they're trying to take away Medicaid from senior citizens, which is utter nonsense. They're not doing that. There is no one over the age of 64 that is paying for Medicaid. They get their Medicaid through the government. It's not a problem. They're able and afforded whatever they need from health care through Medicaid.

What they did put in was a work provision so that if you are somewhere between the ages of 18 and I think it's 54, 64, I can't remember right now. But if you're somewhere within that age realm and you're able bodied, guess what? Go to work, bro. Like the rest of us.

This whole cycle of abuse of the systems that were put in place so that we could help those who are actually in need that is now completely and totally abused by people who don't need it is really starting to get on my nerves because people like me are paying for it. This is bullshit. Enough already. Go to work. I go and I drive around and all I see is help wanted signs. Help, help, help, help wanted.

And there's nobody working. You know why they're not working? Because they started all this nonsense during COVID. They started giving people checks to stay home. They wanted to incentivize the dependency on the government. That's why people like this jerk Mamdani, we call him Kami Mandani, you know, hat tip to my friend Ethan, who I also work with. He came up with that today and I said, you know what? I really like that. I'm going to run with that. But we were talking about it and it's like,

You really have to listen to what someone is telling you that they believe because they're not hiding it. If they're telling you, blame them. If they're saying to you, I don't believe in billionaires. I don't believe in capitalism. I think that all housing should be given over to public housing. I think all grocery stores should be run by the government. Are you getting a real clear idea of what we're looking at here? This is big brother times a hundred. This is communism in its worst.

Ask anybody who's come from a communist country, whether it's Russia, Cuba, Georgia, you name it. They'll tell you, this is not the way you want to go. We escaped those countries to come to America in the hopes of living and leading a better life. They'll tell you that straight out.

But these idiots who are not students of history are doomed to repeat it. You know, I did a show today with my friend Jeff Lord, who worked in the Reagan administration. He was there during the days of the Berlin Wall and Gorbachev and everything else. And he was telling me today, he said, these 900 page bills, this is nothing new. This was going on back in my day with Reagan and Nixon and all these other idiots. And I thought, my God, have we learned nothing?

And the problem is, too, is that Chuck Schumer and his staffers, right, they read the bill on the floor and he was like, I'm going to make sure everybody reads it. What a crock of shit. Do you really think anybody was listening to that clerk? It was might as well have been a dang lullaby.

That is not reading the bill. Reading the bill is taking maybe, I don't know, three, four weeks to go through the bill, read each of the legislative provisions, understand what they're doing, what they afford and to whom, and then saying, I agree with this. I disagree with that. This doesn't make sense to me.

Don't get me wrong. I understand that every single bill is going to have things in it that just don't make sense to us. 100% I get that. What I don't get is that we're not willing to have a conversation. Now there's this rush.

to get this bill done. And it has to be done right now. Everybody's got to sign it right now. And if you don't sign it, then you're a fraud. You're against the American people. What the hell? I'm just saying, give everybody a week. We're going to codify it today. We're going to codify it next week. What is the difference? You know, when someone's in a big hurry to sell me something, I get nervous. Why are you in such a big hurry to sell me this?

What is it that I'm not supposed to see that you need to make sure that I don't see so that you sell it to me super fast? That seems really strange to me. And the other problem is, is that there's a lot of people that unfortunately don't know all that much and they understand one or two things and those are their sticking points and that's all they know. And I don't know if you've looked at the people that work in the house, right? You ever see the guys that work in Congress? They're either a hundred years old

Or they're rabid lunatics like AOC and Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib, just to name a few. I mean, it's scary stuff. Then you got these talking heads on TV. They don't know what they're talking about either. Every once in a while, you get somebody who really understands the process, truly understands the process, like my friend Jeff Lord. And he said to me today, he goes, it's the Uniparty because I said it was us against them. And he goes, you're right. It's the Uniparty.

They have an agenda. They have something they want to do. They have a position that they're taking. They have a way that they want to do it and nothing is going to stand in their way. And it really, it just scares me. I don't really understand, you know, this whole idea that we're going to pass this and then we're going to have a follow-up reconciliation bill that will happen at a later date to get all of the stuff in it that we didn't like out of it. We just have to get this first part passed.

I'm sorry. I just don't think that's ever going to happen. I really don't. I don't think that these Democrats and Republicans are being truthful and honest. I think they all sit in a back room when no one's watching and they are laughing and they are smiling. And it is just a big joke. It's a big joke to them because it doesn't affect them anyway, right? Because the whole rules and regulations of the policies that they pass, they don't affect them. They affect us.

They have some sort of better health care. They have better housing provisions. I mean, how many of them are millionaires, right? Something's wrong. I don't know what it is, but something's wrong. I'd love to find out. I'd love for somebody to be honest with me and tell me what's actually going on behind closed doors. But the issue is once somebody does that, they're going to be the odd man out. They'll get rid of them. It's just like what we see in the Diddy case today.

You know, and this guy isn't found on racketeering or sex trafficking. Yeah, that's all part of a grander plan because if he was to get in trouble for racketeering and sex trafficking, we'd have to find out who aided and abetted. We'd have to find out who he trafficked people to. And I'm sure the list is long and I'm sure there's a lot of names on there that most of us would know. And they sure as hell don't want us to see it. So Diddy's never going to get what he deserves.

Never. And we're not going to see it in this lifetime. That's for damn sure. And then you look at, you know, what's happening with them saying that Medicaid is a problem or the Republicans are trying to steal from the elderly and this and that. I want you to take a listen to this cut. It's getting zero play today. Zero. And it is such a big deal. It's a great thing.

And it's through our Department of Justice who was able to uncover the largest fraudulent scam in our healthcare system. I'll tell you what, I don't see it anywhere. I don't hear it anywhere, but I'm gonna play it for you here. $14.6 billion in fraudulent claims to Medicare and Medicaid. And we wonder why this system is broken. And Democrats will say it's Republicans' fault and Republicans will say it's Democrats' fault, but it's neither.

It's just all fraud. And it's fraud in every kind of way. It's people being on the system that shouldn't be. And then doctors, nurses, healthcare professionals, pharmaceutical experts, all sort of dipping in, right? Because nobody's looking. Now, finally, people are looking. But we're so busy arguing over a thousand page bill that half of the house hasn't even read. Nobody's even talking about that.

That would actually have a huge impact on the conversation in the house about Medicaid. Isn't that a novel idea? And then another huge story came out this week, this time about COVID. So during COVID and all of these poor kids that were forced to get sick,

the shot. And, you know, unfortunately, a lot of people had parents that either didn't have the wherewithal to fight, didn't know how to fight, didn't know they could fight, or last but not least, believed in the crap that was being sold to them. And so you'd have these really young, healthy athletes dropping dead in the middle of a game. And people are going, oh my God, what's going on? And we, you know, we'd all say, well, did they get the shot? Because there were these very strange side effects that

From the vaccines, whether you had Pfizer, Moderna, J&J, Pfizer seemed to be the worst. And you'd have these Bell palsy reactions, strange eye, nerve control issues, Bell's palsy. And then in the worst case scenario, you would literally just stop moving, drop to the floor, and your heart would stop beating.

So this was the myocarditis that was the reaction to the mRNA because the spike proteins were working through the body, adhering to your cells, not allowing the blood to flow properly and causing blood clots and strokes and myocarditis. And they'd say, well, there's no evidence of it. Well, how the hell are we going to get evidence of it when you won't even let us in to look at what the hell's in the vaccine? We had to have Aaron Seery go to court to get the actual components of

of the Pfizer vaccine and the potential risks in taking it released to the public. They wanted to wait 75 years to give it to you. Why? If it's so incredible and life-saving, then why the hell are we hiding all of the potential side effects?

Why was it that people who were pregnant were losing babies when they were three months pregnant, four months pregnant, five months pregnant? Because they said it was safe for pregnant women to take the vaccine. It's a load of shit. They lied to everybody. Well, this week, guess what came out? They're putting a new warning on all of the vaccines that say there might be a connection between mRNA and myocarditis. Amazing. Take a listen. So

Wait, there might be one more part. So there you go. So now we have Dr. Vinay Prasad, who is the director for the Center for Biologics, Evaluation and Research, and the chief medical and scientific officer working in conjunction with the FDA to put out a new warning about, you guessed it, myocarditis.

So for the last five years, if you said that there was a tie-in between what was happening with the COVID vaccine and these poor kids and people just everywhere of all different ages dropping dead in front of us out of nowhere.

But, oh, there's no data to support this. There's nothing we can say about this. There's no, there's nothing on the VAERS schedule. The VAERS schedule is the vaccine, the vaccine schedule that shows adverse reactions. Nobody's entered anything in. Oh, really? I find that hard to believe. I wouldn't, however, find it hard to believe that there's somebody sitting in fact,

Fauci's office that went through the VAERS program and deleted everything. I also wouldn't find it hard to believe that Fauci's people did everything that they could to hide every single adverse potential reaction because their goal was something far more nefarious. And I'm not even going to speculate about it on this podcast because...

I just think that Fauci got paid to hurt a lot of people. And I think that Fauci should go to jail. Like, I don't know, now and just stay there forever. Him and his wife, they're just terrible people. And they funneled all this money through the Echo Health Alliance that went through Peter Danzik, which then went to the Wuhan lab. And then they tried to erase any data markers that showed that there was human tampering. So when you go to that much trouble to hide that you were involved and you get paid a shit ton of money to do it,

I don't know, it's usually not a good thing just thinking out loud, right? And last but not least, to totally pivot to something different,

I saw the prime minister of Poland speaking about how he does not take refugees, Muslim refugees, because of the uptick in rapes, murders and crimes against specifically against women and children in countries like Denmark and Sweden and Germany and the UK. Take a listen to this guy during an interview. He is he's just a savage. It's incredible. What a novel idea.

to look at what's happening in other parts of the continent in which your country sits and say to yourself, hmm, maybe this isn't working. Maybe we'll try something else. We're so afraid of offending people and hurting people's feelings. You know what? I'm not. I don't give a shit about your feelings, like at all. I care about the same thing that he does about my family and my country. You know, I am sick and tired of

Of hearing that we have to accept people from countries that subjugate women and children, specifically women and young girls, to things that we would in this country call, I don't know, a crime, pedophilia, rape, murder, female genital mutilation. And suddenly we have places like Michigan, Minnesota, and Texas is sure as hell not that far behind. Cornyn, what is going on?

Poland has it right. Enough. We're not here to welcome your lunatics. If you're a refugee and you're a Muslim and you want to continue to live either in Sharia law or to live an Orthodox Muslim life, you go right ahead. You do that in another Muslim country.

And for some reason, these European governments, they don't want to say it. They would rather protect and pay for violent, criminal, illegal refugees from Islamic countries than they would their own people. It's enough, guys. I'm telling you right now, we got to stand up now because tomorrow's too late.

And if you have children, you better think about that. Whether it's the house bill, whether it's fraud, whether it's vaccines they want to put in your body, vaccines they want to put in your food, sprays they want to put on your vegetables, whatever it is, the government is not your friend. Never has been, never will be.

So the time to take your life into your own hands and make sure that you're protecting your family, making good decisions, not based on, oh, I don't know, CNN, MSNBC, or any of the other mainstream networks. You have to do your research because only one person cares about you and your family, and that's you.
