| 0:00.0 | Welcome back to the Lincoln Project. I'm your host, Reed Gaelin. Today I'm joined by |
| 0:12.4 | senior advisor to the Lincoln Project and host of LP TVs The Breakdown, Tara Setman. |
| 0:17.2 | Tara, thanks for joining me. As always a pleasure to read. |
| 0:20.7 | Also on board today is my fellow co-founder, host of LP TVs The Breakdown, an author of |
| 0:25.5 | Everything Trump Touches dies. Rick Wilson. Rick, welcome back. Hey, Reed, good to be back. |
| 0:31.4 | So guys, today we're going to talk about Marjorie Taylor Greene and her continuing comparisons |
| 0:36.4 | of mask mandates to the Holocaust, as well as a lot of corporations who initially said that |
| 0:41.8 | they would not give to seditionist members of Congress, but are backing off that. But |
| 0:45.9 | first, The Breakdown and LP TV are back. On Tuesday night, you returned for your first |
| 0:53.4 | episode of, I guess, the late spring, new and improved. You'll be back on tonight with |

| 1:23.4 | channel and putting up the content that we put out and engaging with our audience and |
| 1:27.5 | our supporters the way that we do. So it really, really is an exciting adventure for both |
| 1:32.4 | Rick and I to be able to do this and to start a whole new season with new and improved |
| 1:38.2 | assets and bringing more content and programming and more engagement with our audience. So we're |
| 1:43.8 | really looking forward to it and it was a couple of weeks in the making and if people only |
| 1:48.0 | knew what goes into what we do. There's a lot of moving parts. There's a lot of moving |
