Democrats in Congress finally going on the offense, speaking plainly, loudly and clearly led by Democratic Congress members like AOC, Jasmine Crockett, and in the Senate, Sheldon Whitehouse. Let's show you what they're doing. Also, MAGA Republicans don't know how to react and they're exposing their true pro oligarchy agenda during their public appearances because Democrats are pushing back, pushing them into a corner and MAGA Republicans exposing what they're really trying to do with Project 2025. Let's take a look here. Democratic Congress women, Jasmine Crockett, let's play this clip. Whatever the case may be or they can go and say lock up Hillary Clinton because they're talking about a server that she used and we know the recent conversations about Trump and the server that they're using as it relates to his transition back into power. It is amazing that they seemingly always want to make up laws to lock up anyone that does not see the world through the orange flavored glasses that they do. But I just think that America really needs to have a reckoning and decide are we going to be a country that is okay with the lack of morality, okay with the lack of family values, okay with the lawlessness or are we not? There is no middle ground. We either are or we aren't. Next up, I want to show you Democratic Senator Sheldon Whitehouse. And here he talks about really Donald Trump was going to appoint Matt Gates as the Attorney General. Seriously, we now seen the report. We know what he was up to. That's what the Republican Party is supporting and covering up. Watch this, play the clip. Before you even got to all these really extraordinary findings, you had a guy who Donald Trump was proposing to be the top prosecutor for the United States of America, whose only experience with criminal investigations was to be the subject of them. Before you even get to the conduct, that alone should have been disqualifying. So to your earlier point, the reflection of this on the judgment of Donald Trump is perhaps the most remarkable part of this whole story, setting aside all the grim and salacious details.

Yeah. And Senator, that extends to other Trump nominees, Pete Hexett for Defense, Tulsi Gabbard. This unbelievably crazy nomination was made by the same person who's made these other, is making these other nominations. Yeah. And some of them. And I love that AOC's been doing these kind of ask her anything type videos that she's been making really good stuff right here. Here she is talking about the MAGA Republican oligarchy and that it's here already here play this clip. Oh, I don't think we're witnessing the start of an oligarchy. I think we are fully here. You literally have a completely unelected billionaire who has just taken over and paused government funding to specifically take out provisions regarding China and other areas that pertain to him. You have billionaires who run news outlets like Jeff Bezos in the Washington Post, billionaires that run the LA Times, completely interjecting into their editorial boards and manipulating what's being written in them. We're here. We are here. And we are going to witness very unprecedented moments come January. And here AOC is again, talking about how Trump wanted the debt ceiling lifted. So we don't. So we won't realize his tax cuts for the rich will explode the deficit. Watch this. This is actually what this fight is actually all about. This is why Elon is involved in this right now. He's not tweeting this out of nowhere. He's not coming at this out of nowhere. The Trump tax cuts are expiring next year. They are trying to lift the debt limit now because reauthorizing the Trump tax cuts next year are going to explode our federal debt. It's going to explode our deficit again. And they don't want to lift the debt limit then to do that. They want to lift it now. That's why they're because that'll draw too much attention to what their tax cuts are doing. In this way, if they split it up, it's less of a story. And that's why Elon's getting involved. His net worth has, I believe it's almost doubled since the election. He is trying to further explode his net worth. And he is trying to leverage everything from income from federal contracts to reducing his own personal taxes. This is what this is about for him. Trump has a different set of priorities for himself. He's trying to line his own pockets and figure out his own political preservation in this moment. And sometimes those things are aligned and
