GOP Gets Desperate on Labor Day

0:00Maga Republicans are getting very desperate on Labor Day. You've got Maga Republican Senator Tim Scott going on state regime media. Threaten us all with a good time on Labor Day here. Play this clip. Democrats will find a way to impeach President Trump. His cabinet and frankly, even judges. They want to pack the Supreme Court. The one way to stop that from happening is to make sure that we defend the majority that we currently have. And you can tell these Maga Republicans are freaking out right now. You see the latest polling data? Let me show you what Harry Enten says. Donald Trump's support from Labor looks like right now. You're a play this clip. Let's take a look at how the President is doing on the economy when it comes to those who are employed full time. And it's just a complete 180. Look, this was a major strength for him back in 2024 when it came to the economy. Look at this. Employed voters Trump in the economy. Versus Harris. He was trusted more than Harris by 20 points on the economy.

1:00But look at his net uproof of rating now amongst those who are employed full time. It is 41 points underwater. Way down there we go down into the Hudson River. We're talking about a switcheroo in the wrong direction of 61 points on this Labor Day. We're talking about those fully employed and how they view Trump in the economy. It is not a happy Labor Day indeed for President Trump when it comes to how those who are employed view him on the economy. And you can see right there just how bad Donald Trump is doing amongst working class people in the United States. But let me just show you the contrast right here between former President Biden and Donald Trump and their messages on Labor Day. Here's what former President Biden posted earlier today. He writes, I've said it my entire career, the middle class built America and unions built the middle class to every worker who's ever punched a clock, worked a double or worked a line for fair wages and to everyone who stands up for them at the bargaining table in the state house or on the shop floor. Thank you.

2:04This country runs in large part because of you. And it's a photo of former President Biden with workers standing behind him. Now contrast that with Donald Trump's post. Happy Labor Day to all including the radical left lunatics communist and Democrats who will do anything possible to destroy our country. These deranged people after fighting for 10 years should finally acknowledge that your favorite president me knows how to win. They should be exhausted by now. But sadly they're not. They're going to give it one last shot at ruining America. But we're not going to let that happen. We're going to win the midterms big and save America. Donald J. Trump. You see what a utter lunatic he is, but you also see his strategy right there. It's to try and exhaust you. It is to try to break your will and your spirit, but it will not be broken. And Donald Trump sending out his sycophants like Maga Republican Congresswoman Lisa McClain. She's among the

3:11top Maga Republicans in the House of Representatives. She's on the leadership there. And she goes around and she's been giving these interviews on various media outlets where she says when I speak with farmers, you know what the farmers tell me all the time. What at least so what are the farmers tell you? They want us to attack Canada even more. No, they don't. They're not saying that to you. They're saying that they're suffering the highest farmer bankruptcies in American history. They're saying that Donald Trump threw them under the bus. Ranchers are saying Donald Trump is undercutting them with foreign frozen mystery beef. That's not even going through appropriate health processes. They're saying that you sold them out. That's what they're saying to you. But anyway, watch what Congresswoman, Maga Republican Congresswoman McClain has to say play this clip. Partly cook of the cook political report said of your party's prospects in the midterms Republicans should brace themselves. The outcomes could be bad, really bad, or truly horrible. What he was zeroing in on are the tariffs and the fuel and fertilizer costs that are hitting rural

4:15voters. I know out in North Dakota, Senator Kevin Kramer said farm country serious trouble for Trump are rural voters in Michigan also serious trouble? I've had the opportunity to be in the district and talk to the rural voters, right? We have a lot of farmers in our communities. And what the farmers are excited about and actually applaud the president for is actually standing up to Canada and try and level the playing field with the tariffs. More from Congresswoman McClain and she's like, and let me tell you, we stand strongly behind Max Miller, y'all know Max Miller from Ohio, right? Who has those heinous accusations against him from multiple women. And Max Miller, his father-in-law is the current Maga Republican Senator of Ohio who says he needs to resign. But folks, the Maga Republicans in Congress, they stand firmly behind Max Miller. These people,

5:16they are the biggest hypocrites in the world. But anyway, here listen to what she says, they need Max Miller on their team here play this clip. Let me ask you a little bit about house business since you are in leadership. The National Republican Congressional Committee announced last week it's going to spend nearly half a million dollars boosting Max Miller. He's the Ohio Republican Congressman who's been accused of domestic abuse by his two former partners. Speaker Johnson said he still, he still supports Miller's reelection. Do you? Well, then divorces are ugly and I'm glad I'm not, I'm not in his shoes right now. I support anybody with an R behind their name. I hope when all of this comes comes out that it's not true, but at the end of the day we got to let the process play out. I'm focused on winning the house back, taking the house back, keeping the house because we are the only party that's actually putting more money in your pocket. Making sure that crime is down securing the border and rooting out waste fraud

6:20and Max Miller has been a good advocate for his constituents doing that. But your some of your Republican colleagues, including Katie Britt over in the Senate, Jim Banks, John Houston, Roger Marshall, Shelly Moore, Capito of Caldon Miller to resign or quit. They also have ours next to their names. And so does Senator Tim Sheehy, who said this guy is clearly a degenerate sociopath. He should step aside and seek help. As the highest ranking Republican woman in Congress, how do you make peace with that? I think they've tried that avenue and he's chosen to stay in the race. So like I said earlier, divorces are really ugly. I hope this comes out that he's okay, but at the end of the day, he's our nominee right now. I wish the allegations weren't the allegations aren't true, but at the end of the day, we got to continue to do what's right for the American people. And that's what we're trying to do, keeping more money in your pocket,

7:24making sure we secure the border and making sure crime rates are down. Congresswoman McLean, thank you very much. We'll be right back. And then she goes on to say that Donald Trump's trade war will cause pain here in Michigan, but our pitch to the voters is this is the pain that we deserve. This is the mega Republican position. We as Americans deserve this because if we want to stop a 47 year war, that's what they call Trump's catastrophic war. It's been going on for 40 years. They say we need to feel this pain. This pain feels good. That's your pitch here. Play this clip. Number two, we have to level the playing field like I said earlier. Canada, since the 1990s, has had tax and tariffs on our dairy farmers at 250%. Listen, we don't have that. Think of the sliding scale, right? That only kicks in at a certain level. A lot of trading war with Canada. We want a trading partner with Canada. So I applaud the

8:24president for actually trying to level the playing field. But it comes with a bit of pain. And you think voters will understand that? Absolutely does. But at the end of the day, I trust that President Trump is not going to do anything to hurt the American people long term. But because we've had these poor trading policies, and I might remind you that we are worried at a $60 billion deficit right now with Canada. What's the matter with trying to level those long term and getting the tariffs that Canada is charging us? Loads. I applaud the president for doing that for trying to level the playing field. You all know that the Maga Republicans are shutting down the House of Representatives again, right? They're going on yet another recess. I think they worked what like three weeks in the past four months. Maga Mike wants to hide from all of the efforts by Democrats to release the Epstein file system as a Democrat. The people, the public wants these Epstein files released the Trump regime.

9:27One of the main reasons they got involved in this catastrophic war in Iran is to cover up a child sex trafficking ring. Like how crazy is that? That it is an undisputed objective fact that the Trump regime went into a catastrophic war against Iran with Netanyahu to cover up a child sex trafficking ring because the president of the United States names are all over. Name is all over the files. That's where we're at. So Democratic Congress member Rokana just spoke with Jack Couturella at the Midas Touch Network Sunday show. And here's what Rose said about Congress shutting down yet again. Maga Mike saying, where are going home here? Play this clip. It's one of the reasons he does not want a vote on the Epstein issue of releasing the rest of the files and he does not want to vote on ending the war in Iran. You know, Jack, I was shocked by seeing a poll that GBAO did. According to them, independent voters are voting this midterm.

10:27Most of the voters, the issue that they care most about, more than health care costs, more than cost of living are the Epstein files. And the reason they care about it is because it goes to the corruption in this government and they are sick of that corruption. Johnson seen the same polls. He doesn't want Epstein becoming the issue heading into the midterms and he doesn't want votes on the Iran war becoming the issue heading into the midterms. And of course, Thomas Massey and I have done both of those things. We introduced the first war powers resolution to prevent us from getting into Iran and then soon after that we introduced the Epstein Transparency Act. Do you snore?

By the way, Midas Touch Network is working on a lot of

12:35ideas of counter-programming the Trump-A-Polusa disaster Republican midterm convention. That's going to be on September 9th and September 10th where 90% of Republican Congress members will not be showing up and speaking at this event. We're going to come up with some interesting counter-programming ideas. Put in the comments some of your thoughts. So, Republicans are freaking out. You've got Rokana calling them out. And on Labor Day, did you see this Democratic governor, J.B. Pritzker's powerful Labor Day speech? This to me is where Americans are at. This is where the workers are at. This is what it's all about. Listen to what he says, play this clip. First thrive, everyone thrives. Everyone, including businesses, including families, including truly everyone. You are the backbone of the middle class because you built the middle class. That's where we came from as a country. It's what made our country great. And Illinois isn't going to let anti-union leadership in Washington take that away, are we?

13:39No. It's hard. It's hard to think of a time in the last 40 years when the federal government has been more hostile to workers. Honestly, I mean, we've even had some Republican presidents that were, I don't know, survivables. But not now. They've decided to sell us out. They've decided to sell out to big corporations so that now federal protections for workplace safety are gone. Federal protections gone. The number of OSHA inspectors is now the lowest that it's been in 45 years. We fought for years, all of us, to make sure that after a long day's work, you can make it home to your families. Now Washington is telling you to go to hell. So on top of that, in this summer, when literally the world has seen the hottest month on record, Washington is rolling back basic workplace summer heat protections, like requiring that employers provide access to drinking

14:43water. They're taking that away. They've made a rule now that for every new safety measure that OSHA puts in place, they have to remove 10 other safety measures. Add one, take 10 away. How is that good for our workers? This is the right wing playing politics with your lives. Then they've fired in lowered wages for tens of thousands of union workers who care for our veterans, who deliver our mail. Folks who are, well, they keep our food and water safe. We have a federal government that's treating workers like garbage and they're telling corporations that they can do it too. Why? Why are they going after union workers? Why? Well, first, it's a payoff to the profiteers who put Trump in office. That's the first thing. And second, they want to intimidate you. And all union members into silence. Chip away at your rights until you decide that you can't win. That's their goal. Well, they picked the wrong people to try and silence.

15:48Or how about California governor Gavin Newsom speech during his tour of Southern states, here play this clip. Why did Donald Trump make that call? Well, you know why he made that call. Because he knows he's going to lose the midterm elections. He can no longer make the case. He can't persuade. He's going to lose. So he has to rig the election. He has to rig the election just like he tried to like democracy on fire. He has to rig the election before one vote is even cast. The question was, what we're going to do about it? We know this in life. You know this in life and your personal life professionalize. We know it in political terms. It's not what happens to us. It's how we respond to what happens to us. More from governor Newsom right here, let's play it. I'm sorry. I'm not here just to win arguments anymore. I'm not. Not when our republic is being destroyed in real time. Our inheritance has been squandered by this administration. Not when these guys are sensory and historical facts. Not when these guys are

16:49rewriting history. Not when these guys are banning books. Not when Ronda Santis is taking social studies books and curriculum and erasing Rosa Parks name out of the book. Not at this moment. I'm not interested in winning an argument when they're consolidating power. I'm not interested in putting American reverse. I don't want to go back to pre 1960s world. That's not why our Luther King lived and died. Not to see this moment pass. Not to see us play the own kind of politics. We need to fight fire with fire. Democrats need to be tougher. We need to recognize what's on the line. It's all on the line. It's got to draw the line. And we saw Pete Buttigieg out with Governor Shapiro as well. We saw both of them in Pennsylvania. Governor Shapiro at the Pittsburgh Labor Day parade right there. Speak it with workers. And we stand strongly behind the labor movement. So shout out to all of the unions out there today on Labor Day. We're thinking about you and one of the main things we're doing in this channel.

17:51Hopefully you know that is we are fighting for you. Now I just want to show you the contrast though in Minnesota between the Maga Republican extremist candidate Michelle Tafoya and what she's saying. The today in contrast with the Democratic Senate candidate Peggy Flanagan. So let me show you first. Let me show you Tafoya in Minnesota. The extremist candidate right there. Michelle Tafoya play this clip. Warren Iran president called it war yesterday. The vice president said, well, I wouldn't call it a war. I don't know that to me the word it is what it is. Do you support the president's war in Iran? Look, I think everyone agrees Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. And that is a given for we need strength in the Middle East. And that comes from US strength. So I agreed with the initial actions that were very strong because we've had extreme appeasement of Iran over the decades over 47 years. And so I was in favor of those strong actions. Right now I think the president and his

18:58administration needs to lay out very clearly what the objective is. Let's accomplish that objective and let's get our soldiers home. I agreed with it too. It seems to me though now watching this going on that there was absolute miscalculation as to the way Iran was going to take over the straight of hormones. That may be. Look, just feels like a failure at this point, right? We're dealing with higher prices at the gas pump or I do want to point out that higher prices didn't start five months ago. Higher prices started five years ago under the Abiden administration when inflation got to be 9.9% a 40 year high. And we've been recovering from that ever since. But I don't just want to show you the mega Republican extremist candidate. Let me show you the Democratic candidate for that Senate seat in Minnesota. Peggy Flanagan. Here's what Peggy Flanagan had to say. Let's play this clip right here. This is the Democratic candidate for Minnesota Senate seat here. Let's play.

20:00This game is ranked. And it is ranked for these greedy corporations. And it is ranked for these billionaire besties who are paying for this gilded ballroom for the most corrupt president we have ever seen in our nation's history. And so the good news is we showed this entire country that we are not powerless in the face of the Trump administration. As we marched 50,000 strong through frigid temperatures to push back on Donald Trump's ice, when we said we stand up for our neighbors, we look out for each other. And do not mistake Minnesota nice for anything else than standing up for justice and standing up for what is right and good in this country. There you have it folks. Let me know what you think. Hit subscribe. Let's get to 7 million
