WHITE TRASH CONGRESSMAN TO HAITIANS: GET OUT BY JAN. 20 - 9.26

before January twentieth. In a tweet over a screenshot of the news we mentioned yesterday here that a group representing the immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, that Trump and Senator Van Ants and other Republicans are trying to get killed via stochastic terrorism. That that group was suing to try to force the prosecution of Trump and Vance for breaking the

law by such incitement. Higgins writes, lull, these Haitians are wild, eating pets, voodoo, nastiest country in the Western Hemisphere, cults, slapstick gangsters, but damned if they don't feel all sophisticated. Now filing charges against our president and VP all these thugs better get their mind right and their ass out of our country before January twentieth, unquote. Leaving aside the question of whose mind is right, Clay Higgins apparently thinks JV.

Vance is Vice president right now just because his fascist party has nominated him. The blowback was immediate. Before the House adjourned yesterday, the chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus attempted to get Higgins immediately censured for his racist lineage and his violent threats against legal residents of the United States. Now that, as Stephen Horsford says, he confronted Higgins and demanded Higgins delete the tweet. Quoting Horsford, he actually told

me no, he would not. Horsford's censure bid was blocked for the moment by Republicans led my speaker Mike Johnson,

also an ass from Louisiana. Johnson, who Tuesday revealed by what he refused to say, that he would be on the side of the next Republican attempt to nullify the election by legal trickery, just as he was on the side of the last Republican attempt to do so, said that this matter was now closed because Higgins did in fact, delete the get their ass out of our country tweet, Johnson claimed, Higgins quote prayed about it, and he regretted it, and he pulled the post down. That's what you want

a gentleman to do. I'm sure he probably regrets some of the language he used, Johnson says, but you know, we move forward. We believe in redemption around here, right. The only regret Clay Higgins has about the language he used is that he stopped himself from using the N

word to describe the targets of his stochastic terrorism. Johnson, who has long since solidified his reputation as the smarmiest and most morally weightless speaker in the history of the House of Representatives, did not explain why this scumbag Higgins didn't pray about his tweet before he posted it and reignited the nightmare unfolding in Ohio and elsewhere for Haitian Americans and Irish Americans and Ohio and Americans and non

psychotic people named Higgins Americans. The most positive thing that can be said about the Higgins threat is that he declared he only wanted all the Haitians to leave the United States within four months, rather than to have them

all killed. I don't know what kind of redemption Johnson thinks is possible here any longer, but bluntly, the only redemption is that of the United States of America, and it involves putting slime like Clay Higgins in prison or in a psychiatric institution as quickly as possible, and getting them out of the goddamned House of Representatives before it's

too late. It is Clay Higgins or America. It is Clay Higgins and a fascist apartheid state in which every lie is truth as long as it is directed against someone who is not powerful or white, or the America we have spent two hundred and forty eight years trying to improve, even when white trash like Clay Higgins and those hiding their tolerance for bigotry behind tailored suits like Speaker Johnson, have tried to turn this country back to

Jim Crow, to lynchings, slavery, xenophobia, racism, and an attitude that at its core amounts to this. My ancestors were allowed to come here and make my life possible, Yours are not. Why because I say so, If at any point between now and election day, you stop being enraged that Donald Trump and his fellow peddler of cultural heroine J. D. Vance, have let worser creatures like Clay Higgins crawl out of the woodwork. If you flag between now and then suck

it up. The election of November fifth is as existential for this nation as was the Civil War, and many of the issues are unchanged from the Civil War, and the results must be identical. And by the way, the phrase cultural heroine to describe what Trump has done to America, that was coined in twenty sixteen by JD. Vance. As we await the amended Jack Smith filing in Washington, again we find ourselves on the subject of how far Trump

is gone mentally. Here comes your nineteenth nervous breakdown this month. Yesterday Trump forgot he already admitted he lost the twenty twenty election quote by a whisker, and then insisted, no, no, he didn't mean that. He was being sarcastic and cynical when he said whisker. And so he yesterday went back and again admitted that he lost the twenty twenty election by a whisker.

is not entirely one of his hallucinations. He was apparently briefed on what Secretary of State Blincoln went public about yesterday, that Iran has targeted dozens of top US officials, including virtually everybody now in the White House and Trump, with assassination and hacking at everything else. Of course, to Trump, all the languages of the world, all spoken sounds sound like the teacher and the Charlie Brown specials, so all he would have heard, and that briefing was Trump Iran.

Whoa whoa whoa whoa wow. And then of course Trump added the motive to this Iranian plot to kill him and only him. And they want to kill him because because of because of the furniture, because he's trying to bring back the furniture finishing business to Mint Hill in North Carolina. I bet even now you think I'm kidding about this one. I'm not kidding about this one.

his face looked like a box of melting candlesticks. But tell me again, Lindsey Graham, about why you don't think that if he's returned to office, He's still going to kill us all, including you. That day had begun just after Tuesday turned into Wednesday with the briefest, craziest, most harrowing Trump's social media post of all time. And I know I'm really saying something when I say that. At twelve twelve am Wednesday, Trump posted quote, a great day

in Louisiana. He was in Georgia. That is perhaps why it was a great day in Louisiana. Meanwhile, what follows here was an actual surprise. Harris Faulkner of Fox News, dressed up like a cross between Angela Lansbury and the Manchurian candidate and a slightly cleaned up version of reach on He the anchor propagandist from North Korea Nightly News.

Harris Faulkner explains to guests Congresswoman Nancy Mace that Trump was Let's just say that, according to what Harris Faulkner said, it appears we've all been carrying the lead these last twenty four hours.

No pun intended Harris by three in Pennsylvania by Monmouth, or by two by Focal Data, or tied by RMG and SP and R. I'm imagining one of them's right, maybe of the most interest, maybe of the most interest. This week from the pollsters, survey USA has polled. Nebraska hasn't been done in a while. Districts one and three are Trump landslides District two. The blue dot is Harris by fifteen. There is no surprise there. It is the

Nebraska Senate polling that is dumbfounding. Incumbent Republican Senator Fisher trails Independent Dan Osborne forty five forty four. The Republican is losing within the margin of error. For the Senate from Nebraska. Dan Osbourne is a steam fitter, a Navy Vet, a Union leader and a Democrat registered since twenty sixteen. He is proving that the oldest of Republican tricks can work both ways. If and when your party affiliation is going to cost you a point or a vote, just

pretend it never happened. Speaking of which, we swing back to that little shit Mike Johnson, who has ordered Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky to fire his ambassador, the Ukrainian Ambassador to the United States, because Zelensky went to the factory in Pennsylvania where munitions for Ukraine have been manufactured. No seriously, little big man Mike thinks he runs two governments rather

than you know none. The Republicans have now decided that the Zelenski factory visit was a campaign event and thus interference in the American election by Zelenski because Governor Josh Shapiro was at the factory too, and Shapiro was briefly a candidate to be Kamala Harris's running mate. No, seriously, Johnson is on firmer ground with Clay Higgins than he is with this one or with the other half of this.

Johnson's little fat ass henchman, James Comer claims to be opening an investigation into Zolensky and the visit, and he wants the testimony of Merrick Garland and Lloyd Austin, and I don't know he wants Jesus to testify because, of course Trump is still pissed about that little favu he

needed from Zelensky. Also, Comer has apparently decided that since his entire life has now become an utter failure because he never even took a vote on impeaching Biden as president, what the hell, maybe he can still try to impeach Zelenski as president. And yes, of course James Comer, Mike Johnson and Clay Higgins are not just congressional viruses with shoes. They all constitute part of Louisiana's Republican delegation. Squirt Louisiana, thank you for sending us your spoiled oysters. Also of

interest here. Okay, the newsy RFK story may be petering out, but not before London's Daily Mail interviewed doctor Christina Irene Gillespie. And who is she? Well, we know this much about her. She had the dignity to tell the London Rag I am taking care of patients right now. Please don't call back. Oh if only all of us could have said something like that. An explanation is next. This is countdown.

even bats an Ie about what she's doing now. And it wasn't Joe Scarborough, the saga of the White House that couldn't spell straight. Next in Things I promised not to tell first, there are still more new idiots to talk about. The daily roundup of the miss Grants, morons and Dunning Kruger effects specimens who constitute today worst persons

in the world. A preamble, there is no Newsy Nudes News network today, although The London Daily Mail managed to get a five word no comment from Newsy's former fiance's former wife, and that led me to figure out that relative to me, she is Are you ready? She is my ex girlfriends, x fiances because of my ex friends, sexts,

ex wife a lot of exits. I also feel compelled to compliment The New York Post on turning Monday's accounty in this podcast into the first kind of fair, not cynical, not inaccurate story involving me in the Post in the last thirty years. They also spelled my name correctly roughly twenty five percent of the time in the piece, which I think is a new accuracy record for the Post.

What is it? Anyway, right down their addresses so you can then send the migrants, or as Sheriff Zukowski called them, with his seventh grade education, the locust, to live at those houses. That was his excuse. Of course, writing down addresses of who is supporting the Democrat in a red county is stochastic terrorism. Well, God blessed the Elections Board of Portage County, Ohio. They, including one of the two Republicans, decided that Sheriff Zukowski was way over the line here.

They have barred their own sheriff's office from providing the security during early voting, having determined that the mere sight of Zukowski's brown shirts may serve as an illegal form of electoral intimidation. They say they will borrow another county's officers or hire private security instead. The one member of the board who voted to keep the Nazis running the elections says, the real victims here are Zukowski's office, who

committed no crime and blah blah blah blah blah. People were literally saying at a town meeting they were now afraid to vote because of what he posted. Zakowski should be rotting in prison for this, but I don't think we have the laws to put him there yet. The runner up worser, Jamie Diamond, CEO of JP Morgan and just as big a money grubbing swine as the founder of the firm, was quote, if you do not control

the borders, you are going to destroy our country. Now that they are sending migrants into New York, he said on the Money is more important than Life Network CNBC. Now that they are sending migrants into New York, all my super liberal friends realize what a problem it is.

Once again, I cherish my ancestors. I love the thought of my great great grandfather Frederick Olderman getting off the boat at Castle Garden in New York and opening up his blacksmith shop at forty sixth and Fifth in the year eighteen forty seven, and me maybe going back in time and telling him, look, Fred, never mind the blacksmith shop, try to buy this land right here. I love the fact that I am the end result of his courage. Lord knows I don't have his courage. Just the blessings

Jamie Diamond. As the online commentator NYC Southpawd notes, Jamie Diamond dishonors his ancestors, quoting Jamie Diamond's paternal grandfather, Panos Papa Demetrio, immigrated from Greece to New York in nineteen twenty one, the year a racist reaction against Southern and Eastern European immigration led to the Quota Act. So did Jamie Diamond's grandfather get into this country legally or illegally?

Let's see the documents, Jamie. The last time we decided that we had to control the borders to keep immigrants skuf like Jamie Diamond's grandfather out. What happened?

not tired at all. I mean, what's the phrase I'm thinking of laughing hysterically about all this. AnyWho, you've heard Manchin, who is a scumbag that we've all pretended to be nice to for twenty years because he occasionally voted with the Democrats in the Senate. He says he will not endorse Kamala Harris for president because she wants to eliminate the filibuster in order to enshrine Roe v. Wade in

federal law. Now, setting aside for the moment the reality that this will probably increase Harris's vote count in West Virginia because they don't like Mansion there either, let's move on to his fellow theoretical constitutionalist idiot, Kirsten Cinema is a very different kind of person from Mansion. She's not really a moron. She's in fact exceedingly bright, but as

they would say in baseball, she has reverse dunning. Krueger splits, she knows she's smart, but unlike most smart people who think, well, if I know this, lots of other people must know it too, she thinks she's not only the smartest one in the room, but the only smart one in the room. Sinny, responding to the plan to eliminate the philibuster quote to

state the supremely obvious. Eliminating the filibuster to codify real V made also enable to future Congress to ban all aborich nahtan wide, Henny, what an absolutely terrible, short sighted idea. When is not dawned on Kirsten Because she is the smartest one in the room and the only one that's smart in the room. Rest of us are all idiots. What's not dawned on her is that her pals, the Republicans, they're not going to wait for Congress to ban all

abortion nationwide. They're going to do it themselves. The next Republican president will do it himself. He'll probably send troops into the states that still permit abortion, and if he wants to make it all actually legal, if there's a Republican controlled Senate, he'll have them eliminate the filibuster or force an exception to it, like the exceptions to the filibuster have been forced roughly one hundred and fifty times

in my lifetime alone. Idiots, Senator Joe Manchin and Senator Kirsten you self satisfied, unimaginative, smug ass clown cinema two days worst persons than the world. Finally to the number one story on the Countdown and my favorite topic, me and things I promised not to tell. And on Monday, May third, two thousand and four, my executive producer phoned me at home and said, we got Ambassador Joe Wilson.

He'll be on the show tomorrow. Within hours, the communications office of the White House of George W. Bush began a desperate, ceaseless, tireless effort to send me one email with talking points about Ambassador Joe Wilson, which repeatedly hilariously failed to get through to me because none of them

could spell my name correctly. By late in the evening of May third, and Throughout the morning of May the fourth, I got calls and forwarded emails from people throughout NBC who had received emails of their own from the Bush White House Communications Office, all of them with attachments addressed to Keith Oberman without the L, Keith Olberman with only one N, Kaieth Olberman Keith spelled wrong, and even Keith Oberman with a V. This was actually truly the first

day I believed I was having an impact on the Bush White House, and also the first day I realized they were incredibly stupid. There democracy still had a slim chance. The Internet had been operating at more or less its present speed since about nineteen ninety seven or nineteen ninety eight. My name was all over the Internet in articles about my news career, about my sports career, about my previous

news career. There were articles I had written, there were books I had written, and these people who were trying to reshape the United States of America into a reactionary, conservative, cruel, xenophobic, semi authoritarian state were not smart enough to figure out how to spell my name, just so we know who we are talking about. By this point, Scott McClellan had

succeeded the infamous Aary Fleischer as press secretary. His deputies were Dana Perino, who went from being the stupidest person ever to be White House Press secretary to being one of the stupidest persons ever to have a show on Fox News, Pamela is Stevens, who later wound up as a producer at CNN. Because political press people are exactly like unemployed football coaches or baseball managers who get TV jobs and then leave the TV jobs to go back

onto the field. The communications director was named Dan Bartlett, and there was another communications person there named Nicole Wallace, who has somehow shaken off the stink of working for both George and Jeb Bush and is now considered a darling of MSNBC, even though her only true non fascist

credential is she doesn't like Trump either. The crack White House media team representing the most powerful man in the world, the anxious and foreshadowing years after nine to eleven, and not one of them could even find anybody else who could spell my name, let alone spell it themselves. More on them in a moment, But I need to explain who Joe Wilson was if you don't know, and why

he was so important. Long before Colin Powell confessed to Tim Russert that he had been lied to by the White House, and thus he himself had lied to the United Nations about Sadam Hussein's imaginary weapons of mass destruction. Those were the excuses from Bush Cheney for dragging this country into an unnecessary and national soul destroying war in Iraq with lies and torture and scapegoating and suppression and brutality.

Before that, there was Ambassador Joseph Charles Wilson fourth, and in two thousand and two, after pressure from the White House, the CIA sent him back to the scene of his first diplomatic posting, the African nation of Niger to get proof for Bush that Saddam was trying to buy yellow cake uranium there to make nuclear bombses out of and Wilson quickly found out it was nonsense, and he reported back and the Bush White House promptly buried his findings

and instead, in the two thousand and three State of the Union address just before he started bombing Iraq, George W. Bush said, the British government has learned that Sadam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa. It was and remains a complete lie, and war occurred because of it, and Joe Wilson called it a complete lie in an op ed in the New York Times on July sixth,

two thousand and three. The Iraq War was still at this stage defined by Rah Rah, we're winning, but Sadam's WND and his biological weapons and his chemical weapons might be over the next hill. And you'd better not criticize what we're doing, or maybe you're a terrorist. Joe Wilson said. The emperor had no clothes in two thousand and three,

he was an American hero of the highest order. A week later, a Dick Cheney flunky named Scooter Libby and a Deputy Secretary of State named Armitage began a campaign to punish Joe Wilson and discredit him. They leaked to a dyspeptic and hate filled columnist named Robert Novak, who is now working in the Bureau in Hell, that Wilson's wife was an undercover agent for the CIA, and that her name was Valerie Plain, and that the pair of

them were dirty Democrats. And moreover, it was Plain who had urged that her own husband be sent to Niger to deliberately not find the uranium or the Sadam Hussein signed receipts, or whatever Bush expected to find there. The Bush white House destroyed the career of risked the life of and ruined several assignments and contacts of one of this country's own secret CIA agents, just to make her

husband look bad. So in May two thousand and four, when Joe Wilson wrote a book about all this crap, and he inexplicably wanted to go on MSNBC, which was still at that point trying to be more conservative than Fox Nudes, and wanted to go on My little watched show, which was considered the neutral outlier on a network full of Joe Scarboroughs and Michael Savage's. This was a happy surprise for us, which was followed by this wonderful, flailing effort by the Bush White House to send me talking

points about Joe Wilson before I interviewed him. They not only could not spell my name, but they were utterly convinced that my interview was designed to discredit Joe Wilson. The talking points which eventually got to me from Assistant Press Secretary Pamela Stevens consisted of six items over two pages. The headings were as follows. One political motivation. This was about Wilson calling Dick Cheney a lying sob about a year after the knee jair trip. I couldn't figure this

one out. Dick Cheney was a lying so b. That's how I got to be vice president. Two Gingrich spokesman calls allegations about alleged March two thousand and three meeting completely false. This cited Newt Gingrich and his people as if they were good sources, as opposed to the punchlines they already were back then. In two thousand and four. Talking point number three, McClellan points out political objective, and four McClellan addresses accusations. These were quotes from the press secretary.

This man suddenly quit that job two years later two thousand and six, and confessed he had repeatedly lied for George W. Bush and the others, and now he just couldn't take it anymore, and he would come on my show and give one of the best Atonement interviews I've ever heard. It went on for forty five minutes. Five Fleischer says VP office did not request trip a quote from McLellan's predecessor, who unless he is talking about baseball, you should assume he's lying. Plus he might be lying

about baseball. And finally, six statement by George J. Tennant July eleven, two thousand and three. This was a quote from the CIA director which they thought was their home run, and it basically consisted of this. Bush never saw that report. That was it. There are three punchlines to this story.

Number one. I don't know why the Bush Communications office assumed I was there to take down Joe Wilson, But the moment I saw these talking points, any lingering doubt I had that they were not all lying bastards down there was erased. I used the talking points in my interview, all right. I read them out loud to Joe Wilson, and he rebutted each of them with impeccable charm and elegance.

He and Valerie Plain became regular guests on My show and would beat the crap out of George Bush with the plom right through the morning of January twenty, two thousand and nine. Second punchline a year earlier, a supply clerk with a maintenance company on the ground in Iraq, was captured Private Jessica Lynch. The military and the Bush administration immediately put out the story that she was being

tortured by them evil Iraqi Sadam Hussein doctors. There was the glorious rescue of Jessica Lynch which followed, and the parades and the you better not question this story period, which lasted about six weeks until a Toronto newspaper printed a substantially different account that Lynch was rescued from an Iraqi hospital and a US military team in good faith went in to extract her, but that this was all arranged, not by some sort of part of intelligence or US

operations or the Allies, but by the Iraqi doctors. Some of them sneaked over to American lines at great danger and said, one of your soldiers is hurt and we don't have the right equipment to help her. Could you

swing by and pick her up. I reported that version on MSNBC, and the next day, as I was still taking my coat off, my boss, Phil Griffin called me in and said that the head of NBC News and the president of NBC, Bob Wright, had been on the phone all morning to him, insisting I should be fired for implying that the Bush administration had lied. Griffin proudly said he had talked him into letting me get away

with just apologizing to the troops. I can't even read this with a straight face now, twenty years later, apologizing to the troops who rescued her, I must credit myself when my brain was fulled in that I did some quick thinking. The demand was comical nonsense journalistically. On the other hand, if I agreed to apologize to okay, the troops who rescued her, whoever you want, I would get the chance to tell the whole real story of Jessica Lynch again. So I did. The apology was fifteen seconds,

and while unnecessary, was sincere. I didn't want to make the troops look bad. They didn't know anything about this crap. I made sure, however, that the retelling of the true Lynch rescue story took about two and a half minutes. That was in June of two thousand and three. So why as of May of two thousand and four, the Bush White House thought I was sympathetic to them, I'll never know, or why they bothered with me, I'll never know,

which brings me to the last point. The unintended side effect with the long term impact of all those failed White House emails with my name misspelled was that this Pamelas Stevens person promptly forwarded them to people around NBC whom she considered friendly to George W. Bush. One of them was Tom Brokaw's assistant, another was in the office of future NBC News president Steve Cappus, and the final

one was to some guy named George Uribe. And so I found about all the people in the Bush administrations we like them, list at NBC News who I should avoid under all circumstances. Let's see Brokaw's assistance. So no Brokaw, somebody in Cappus's office, and no Cappus, and this guy George Ribey. And George Rebay turned out to be a guy hired by MSNBC from Fox News to go work for Scarborough. He fell out of favor with Joe Scarborough, and I guess he didn't henchman enough for Joe's tastes,

and his influence fell to a guy. I don't think I've mentioned him to you yet, Chris Licked. I've done all the damage I can do here. Thank you for listening. We're now back to five episodes a week, posting nightly just after midnight Eastern. Once again, there is a Monday Countdown. Please forward this podcast to a non listener who should start listening, and start listening now. Brian Ray and John Phillip Shaneil, the musical directors of Countdown, arranged, produced, and
