So today I want to talk about Nancy Mace. So for those of you who know, you know, and if you don't, she is a congresswoman from the great state of South Carolina. A lot of people don't like Nancy Mace because Nancy Mace does not give a shit about your feelings. And I got to say, I'm kind of a big fan of that. I don't know her personally, never worked with her, but she talks about so many things that nobody else either wants to or has the bulls to actually say out loud. And one of those
things was a resolution that she proposed. It was House Resolution eleven hundred, and I'll read from the text. It aimed at forcing the House Ethics Committee to publicly release investigative records regarding sexual harassment by members of Congress. The effort followed allegations against Representative Tony Gonzalez, who now is
no longer in the race for his reelection. But the House overwhelmingly voted three fifty seven to sixty five yesterday, No, two days ago, let's stay the sixth on March fourth to kill the resolution because it had by partisan opposition.
So think about that for a minute. We have a bill that's going to expose people who are sexual predators so much so that they have to pay somebody off to keep their mouth shut, and three hundred and fifty seven elected officials, men and women, Republicans and Democrats, voted to shut it down. Why wouldn't you want to know?
Why do we have people sitting in Congress who are there to make break and force and talk about laws follow our Constitution, and in their private lives are so corrupt, are so morally bankrupt that they have to then use taxpayer dollars, not their money, taxpayer dollars. It's called a slushed fund to pay off whoever it is that is accusing them of said crime. Now, if you're like me and somebody says I'm going to tell everybody that you did X, and you know for a fact that you
didn't do actually like, yeah, I have about it. I don't give a shit. Knock yourself out. I got nothing to be ashamed of. No skeletons in my closet. It's a walking Go ahead, take a stroll. Nothing going on there. But these people are standing lockstep. I mean, how often do you see the right and the left stand together at that high three hundred and fifty seven. People think about the amount of bills that we're trying to pass.
They typically pass always across party lines, right, the Dems all stick together, the Republicans all stick together, and then there's like, I don't know, somewhere between five and ten stragglers depending on the bill. So it's always like two hundred and ten to like one ninety ware whatever it is. It's never three hundred and fifty seven. People stood around and said, Yo, we got to shut this shit down.
The last thing we want is anything in the public domain exposing that we are, in fact, totally and completely guilty of sexual assault charges. And we use the American people's hard earned money to pay people off for their silence. There's no This is not opinion, this is not conjecture, this is actualities, right, and the goal again, reading from the resolution, the goal was to expose records of sexual harassment,
including the investigation reports and findings. It would have required the Ethics Committee to make records public within sixty days of the legislation's adoption, all sensitive, identifiable or witness information redacted. Let's say that again, all sensitive, identifiable or witness information would be redacted. A lot of people have come out of this vote saying, well, we couldn't do it because we didn't want to expose the victims, which is a
load of horseshit. They were never going to expose the victims. All they wanted to do was exposed the perpetrate, because why on earth would we want sexual assault predators in our Congress. And that's not to say they're not among us all the time, right, But there is something to be said for you're holding public office, you have a constituency that has elected you to represent them in front of the whole country as the person that stands and says, hey, I'm the head of X and I'm here to represent
the people of such and such district. Oh, by the way, at night, when everybody's asleep, I go out and I harass women that are under the age of eighteen and I sexually assault them. It got so bad I had to pay one of them off. Would you vote for that person again? Absolutely not, the opposition said, true story.
Howth Ethics Committee leaders argued the move would chill witness cooperation and retraumatize victims right because they would be upset that the people who sexually assaulted them were being held accountable. Do we not have a massive amount of people throughout the media and in our government calling for transparency with the Epstein files. Do we not have people saying every single day that there should be no reactions with the
people who are the predators in those files. Do we not publicize and promote every single time we find out another CEO or person in the UK government, person in the American government was a part of these Epstein rendezvous. Do we just not have a former Secretary of State and President sit before the House Oversight Committee in closed door session, which we then got some purview through the
hearings when they leaked a little bit out. I guess whatever was agreed upon between all parties, but we got to see them testifying and talking about Oh, Bill, do you remember sitting in that hotel with that underage girl. Nope, nope, never saw that she wasn't underage. Oh I thought you said you didn't remember. But now we're trying to pass legislation that you're not allowed to do this and have the American people pay off you know, your crimes. And
everybody said no, I including Speaker Johnson. You know, mister holier than now, really think about that for a minute. So three hundred and fifty seven members of Congress, they voted against predators, they voted in lockstep, and they voted to take part in utter deception against the American people. It is so beyond the pale. I can honestly say I actually thought it was a Babylon b story when I first saw it, because I couldn't believe that this
was happening. And it's not like I wasn't already upset enough about the fact that we have control as the Republican party. And let me be very clear, I am a Republican because it's closer to who I am than what a Democrat is at the end of the day, they both suck. They're just one big UNI party. And I've been saying this for years. There's them and there's us.
That's it. There's nothing in between. And this is the biggest problem that we have when we try to have accountability, when we try to have ethics committees, is that the same people that scream at the top of their lungs about Epstein because they think that they're going to get
Donald Trump. Which, let's be honest. The Epstein files have been around for twenty years, and we have had Barack Obama, of Barack Obama and Joe Biden in office, and you're telling me neither one of them could get enough information on President Trump. We're going to get it, now, give me a break. They had everything that they wanted to have in those Epstein files, but they knew that there was nothing about him and way too much about people
on their side of the aisle. The problem is there's plenty of people from our side of the island there too, And then we have so many assholes. I mean, we have the corn Ins, we have the Thune, we have the Johnsons, I mean Lisa Murkowski Susan Collins. Mitch McConnell, you know, it's basically becoming an old folks home on the floor of the Senate. You've been in there for forty years. You haven't cared about your state in a really long time. Could you just go now? Yesterday we
lost Steve Danes of Montana. That's a huge loss. Supposedly they already have the successor, but he's not running again. And now we have Mark Wayne Mullens from Oklahoma who's now gone into the role of Department of Homeland Security Director. So these sorts of things are happening all the time. We're losing some of the good ones, we're keeping all of the terrible ones. And now fun is making back room deals because supposedly he wants Cornyn to get the
nod the Texas Senate position. They want him to keep that role. Why why do you want to keep John Cornyn as a senator in the state of Texas. He's speaking to people that are Muslim in his state. He is encouraging or mosques to be built. His daughter works for a lobbying group that is trying to make things Sharia compliant. Can somebody please explain to me why in God's great name we want John Cornyn anywhere near the
damn Senate. You may not like that Ken Paxon had some problems with his wife, or maybe he had an affair, or he did this, or he did that, But I'll tell you what, I would rather have a guy that cheated on his wife and got divorced than a guy that wants to build three hundred mosques and take money from these sort of super packs where they're funneling all the money back into communities that have nothing to do with assimilation or American values. Ken Paxson is out there,
he's holding people's feet to the fire. That's what I want from a senator. Don't get me wrong. I'm not Pollyannish about the fact that the government is ugly and people lie, and I get it. But there is a bridge too far. There is a spot where I'm like, listen, you clearly have I haven't seen your balls in a really long time, and you have no idea what it
means to stand up for American values. When I say stand up for American values, when I say let's find out who is sexually assaulting people, who's a predator in Congress? That should be like, yeah, no problem, one hundred percent, I'm all in. Not oh no, we need to lock that down. Nobody can know that. Let's cover it up.
These are the things that mystify me when people say, well, you know, we've got to make deals, and now we have fun trying to make a deal for Cornin with the President and supposedly he's saying, listen, I need you to give the nod to Cornin, and if you do that, I'll bring the save back to the floor. Do you
not understand, John Thune? Seriously, I don't know what's in the water in South Dakota, but do you not understand for one second that if the Democrats get the House and the Senate back, aside from the fact that they will completely paralyze any legislative efforts that are president tries to do, aside from that fact, they are going to pack the courts. They are going to make sure that every single aspect of what we have done over the
last year and a half is undone. You think the world is too woke now, you will never be able to close your eyes again if these assholes get back in charge and you think they're going to let you keep your seat. What deal with the devil did you make? You're not keeping your seat. You're not going to be a Senator from South Dakota, You're not going to be the majority leader. None of that is a reality for you.
If they win and if we don't pass the Save Act and we don't have people that have their papers and have their information and it's not a thing. This is the reality of where we're at. And unlessen, until we pass the Save Act, we're going to be in big trouble. And if I was President Trump, and I'm not, but if I was, I will tell you right now, I would go out and I'd be like, listen, scorched Earth. John Thune came over last night. He says, if I support Cornyn, he's going to bring the save back to
the floor. What do you guys want me to do? Go scorched Earth. Let the people know the piece of shit that he is. Because I'm telling you right now, these super packs, with all this Katari money, this Middle East money, asking us to build more mosque, asking us to be Sharia compliant, maybe they should be present for what that actually means. Maybe you guys need to go to a Sharia court and look at the subjugation of young girls, some of them younger than nine, being married
to men that are sixty. It's disgusting, but I guess I shouldn't expect anything from a Congress that is now telling everybody we don't care about the victims, we care about the predators. We're suppressing everybody's ability to expose those who have used your money to pay off their devian activities, because that's what happened. And Nancy is somebody. This is a woman who graduated from the Citadel. She's a badass bitch. She's not here for it, and she's telling you right
now that she's going to keep fighting. She's doing all the things that so many of these career senators, career members of the House. I'm sick of it. It is time once and for all to expose those who abuse the privilege of holding public office. Your first responsibility is
to us, the American citizens. And for those assholes who didn't stand during the State of the Union when they were asked that very question, they are the same people who voted to support sexual predators yesterday who are screaming to expose the Epstein files, the aocs, and the Maxine Waters and the who cares All the idiots right on the left, there's so many of them, but now they're voting with the Republicans because everybody wants to shut it down. So we got backroom deals to be made on the
Save Act, which is our right. Eighty four percent of Americans left and right want the Save Act because you got plenty of Democrats. I mean, just listen to Jasmine Crockett the other day when she lost her Senate primary against Taller Rico. Oh, it was rigged. Not only did she say it was rigged, which is absurd, she said it was rigged by the Republicans. I'm like, yeah, I
got to tell you something, Jasmine. At the end of the day, if it's between you and tall Rico, while you both are completely awful and horrible, I'm gonna pick you because Tallarico is psychotic. I mean, he's calling Jesus non binary. I don't know how quickly he's going to get to hell, but I know when he gets there, he's gonna burn for a real long time. So yeah, I would pick Jasmine Crockett over tall Rico. But again, if they want fairness election integrity, they want to know
that their vote is secure past the Save Act. You go in, you show ID you have to be an American citizen. I have no idea how you could defend not wanting that, because the only reason you don't want that is if you want to give people who don't pay into the system the right to make votes that control the system. And the only reason we do that is because the Democrats know that black and white America are sick of their bullshit and we're we are not
voting for them. And if they spend five minutes on social media, they would know that most people, if they don't say Republican or Democrat, they're aligned on these issues, all the big ones, how the economy is doing, protecting our children, protecting the job market, protecting our borders, being a sovereign nation, all these things. Once you start talking to people just common sense ideas, you'll find you're on the same page. It is not until you select party
alignment that you start to see the fistfly. So I'm done talking to people about parties because, like I said a few minutes ago, is one big UNI party. It's us against them, and they showed that yesterday. I want to play one piece of audio from Larenbert of Colorado because she actually said something pretty interesting, and I don't always agree with her, but I did agree what she had to say here about Congresswoman Mace's resolution to expose these people and take a listen.
I'm absolutely disgusted that we could even get to fifty members of Congress who want immediate transparency. Don't we all campaign on transparency. Don't we all go out and tell the American voters that we are leaders and that we are going to get justice for them, that we are going to do right by them, and then we hire their daughters to come work for us. And your tax dollars, millions and millions of dollars has been used in this slush fund as hush money to silence victims who have
been sexually harassed, sexually abused by members of Congress. And then Congress is going to do exactly what it does best, investigate itself. And we know that of that ever goes anywhere. The American people demand transparency. And this doesn't just pertain to a ranch in Arizona or New Mexico or an island down in the Virgin Islands. This is happening right here in our nation's capital, and we should be held
to the highest standards. And to every member who voted to send this to committee, where you know, this was sent to die on the House floor just moments ago, I hope you have a jarn good reason to tell your constituents why you were not going to stand up for the victims. And I'm glad that we are doing something about it here in the Oversight Committee. I'm glad that this motion was made here so we actually have another chance at transparency.
But again, these are your tax dollars. These are your tax dollars that were used.
To silence victims. They have been settled with victims. And to the members who voted against this, go home and tell your daughters what you did to. Go home and tell your daughters what happens in the workplace, no matter where it is, in your hometown and your nation's capital, and tell them what you did to help continue to cover up decades of corruption. I am absolutely in favor of this motion.
How interesting is that, right she's talking about how we bring our kids over. We have them, you know, come to work, do internships, whatever it is. But in this moment, we're unable to protect them. Because it's more important to protect our special interest. That's exactly what happened this week.
So I'm really hopeful that Nancy Mace continues to be the one sort of standing outside doing the uh, being the outlier, if you will, in Congress and saying, you know what, I'm going to keep fighting the good fight, because at least she is. She's taken the hits. People attack her all the time, but she doesn't care. And I have to say I really respect it. I do. And for the rest of the representatives that stood up and actually said I am not going to vote for this,
there were let me take a look here. There were twenty seven Democrats and thirty eight Republicans that voted to have these people exposed, which is kind of amazing. But the people that you would think would be on this list, the speaker, Johnson's, the AOC's you know, they're not on here, absolutely not. You know who is on here, Chip Roy Stephanic. Let me see who else is here? Andy Ogles of Tennessee, Brandon Gill of Texas, he's great, Andy Biggs of Arizona,
you know, comer. I mean, these are the people that you know, you expect to see on here, and if they're not on here, I want to know why. I don't care if you're one of us or not. I want to know why. Why did you vot vote to block this resolution and protect these sexual predators. What in the god's name is wrong with you? You are listening to the Rogue Recap.
