else. Hey, everybody, welcome to another episode of Welcome to the Party, pal. I am your host, Mike Nellis. Join with me always is the newest Democrat, maybe not so new anymore. You're not quite as fresh. Former Tea Party Congressman Joe Walsh. This is our space where we bitch and moan and complain and talk about what's been happening this week. And who boy did we wake up to a series of big, fucking news stories that have pissed the two of us off? We're going to talk about Don Levin being arrested by the federal government over completely bullshit nonsense charges. We're going to talk about them deciding that today was the day. They're going to finally comply with the law and released at least some of these Epstein files. And we're going to talk about what the hell Tulsi Gabbard was doing in Georgia this week. we're only going to go for 20 minutes. This is going to be a really tight episode. We apologize people for that,

but I have to go do a media hit right after this. So while we're getting started, do us a favor. Smash the like button for us real quick. Move this up the algorithm. Tell us where you're watching this from. Leave comments and make sure you subscribe to either Joe or I if you're new to either of our channels. Joe, I'm going to just take this one and start and then I'll let you grab it from here because Don Lemon is a personal friend of mine. He and I have a show that we do at the same time on Wednesdays. He is someone who has given me a lot of advice. In fact, the camera that I'm staring at right now is a camera that Don Lemon told me to purchase. He's a good dude. And what's happening to him today is absolutely bullshit. And I want to make a couple of things clear to people based on my POV here. I apologize. I'm getting a call. I forgot to do not disturb. So son of a gun. There we go. All right. Oh, good. Mike have headphones. Fuck it. we'll do it live is where we're at. But Don Lemon is a personal friend of mine. He's a good man.

1:30.2

And, son of a gun there we go all right oh good my headphones fuck it we'll do it live is where we're at but don lemon is a personal friend of mine he's a good man and they're claiming that he incited basically a riot at a church

1:34.5

three separate judges have stopped the department of justice from issuing a warrant for his

1:41.3

arrest and i don't know how they've been able to issue this warrant for his arrest this morning, but Don didn't do anything wrong people. I have a YouTube video coming out where I'm going to walk people through exactly what happened. He was reporting as a journalist on a protest outside of a church. But here's the real reason they're going after him. And then I'm going to hand it to you, Joe, to get your reaction. They will leverage and abuse the power of the federal government to go after anyone, anyone who stands up to them,

2:04.0

who is effective. get your reaction. They will leverage and abuse the power of the federal government to go after

2:01.5

anyone, anyone who stands up to them, who is effective. And Don Lemon is one of the fastest growing

2:07.3

content creators in the anti-Trump resistance. He just got over a million on YouTube. He's

2:12.0

exploding everywhere. His substack is good. His social media is good. He is one of the most important voices, and they're coming after him. And it's the same thing as anything else. And where, I'm going to add one more thought, Joe, where the fuck are all the free speech absolutists who were like, we can't, the government can't be getting in the way of the First Amendment? We can't ever do anything like that. It's wrong. Where are they right now? They're silent. Just like the Second Amendment absolutists who won't defend Alex Pretty. And Donald Trump attacked Alex Pretti again, who was murdered by the federal government last Saturday, not even a week ago. And Joe, take the mic. Let me have it. Oh, I'm going to give it right back to you, Michael, because I love it when you're on fire like this look i'm i'm i'm pissed off this
