In terms of function, Steven Miller has always been the guy calling the shots on everything. I never in my entire life heard Susie Wiles name ever brought up in my entire life for anything consequential ever. I feel like if anything she was there as the head to do the boring day to day stuff or whatever. And then Stephen Miller was making all the calls while like doing. He was a shot caller. But I don't know, that's been my impression. I could be totally wrong on that, but that's my impression. I've never heard anything about her ever in my life. And Stephen Miller is fucking Hitler. Speaker, except for one thing that I keep coming back to. The margin is so big that, that there's a. I guess the conventional wisdom is that means that Hakeem Jeffries has it because like two or three or ten members can't sway the actual official vote. As you allude to Ryan in the House over who the speaker is. But there's, there's the flip side of this where the, the freshman class itself is so big. I think somebody said there's going to be 75. It was the 2020 election, when you explained how the online Bernie wave did not represent the general public that I understood that this lefty echo chamber is pure cancer. It's so annoying. And I think it needs to be pushed more. I'm. I'm glad that Noah guy tweeted about it and I quote tweeted him on it. It needs to be pushed more. It should be telling you something about these people that all of their strong argumentative debate bro guys are fucking petrified of actually arguing against people like me or against people like, I guess no opinion. Apparently Mehdi blocked him. It should tell you something that these people are fucking terrified of having a conversation with somebody that they don't perceive that they would be able to bully. This where the, the freshman class itself is so big. I think somebody said there's going to be 75 or 80 new House Democrats, like new, like literally new people. Right. And my point in bringing that up is that's 70 or 80 new votes who haven't been hanging around with Hakeem Jeffries for the last two, four, six years. I mean Jeffries has probably through the dccc has helped some of them, but certainly not all of them. And the point is, is that those relationships, you know anything about politics? The name, who the Republican Senate leader is the, the only reason why I can tell you that it's Thune, right? It is Thune, right. Is because I feel like I was gonna go on a panel at some point, and I looked that up so that somebody wouldn't ask me that, and I wouldn't look like a retard for not knowing. McConnell used to be a band. Yeah. The only reason. Yeah. But I literally don't know anything about Thune or what he does or what the fuck. Or what he believes in or anything, because Republicans literally fucking do not do anything with Congress. It is fucking unreal how neglected the legislature has been under Donald Trump. Because normally, especially in your Senate leadership positions and even your House leadership positions, I feel like they usually get a lot of publicity. Paul Ryan was a big deal during Trump's first term, and the fact that he ended up leaving the party, I thought a lot of people thought that was like, what the fuck is going on? Know, obviously, McConnell has been.
