America, we got to get back to doing what's expected of us as free citizens in this democracy.

That means being tolerant, being respectful, stay informed, and being engaged.

I'm former Congressman Joe Walsh.

Follow me here and join the millions of Americans who are renewing their social contract with each other.

The social contract, it's on us.

Hey, let me say at the outset,

and a good Friday to everybody, TikTok, hello, hello TikTok.

Let me say at the outset, let me issue a bit of a warning.

This may be a really boring show today this Friday.

If you want to check out or turn me off or go do something else for the next 20 minutes, feel free. This may not be the most exciting

Joe Walsh show you've ever heard. By the way, I promise next week, now that we're done with this election,

next week the social contract with Joe Walsh, we'll get back to once a week long-form conversations

with people I disagree with. We'll get back to that next week. But for everybody else listening to me right now,

I had a show planned today. I was going to talk about what the future now portends for this MAGA Republican Party, what the future portends for the Democratic Party,

what the future looks like for people like me who are politically homeless and don't

belong to either party. I had a show planned, all laid out. And then about 10, 15 minutes ago i just said no i don't feel like it

and i said that because i'm really worried i didn't sleep a lick last night i probably probably look like shit. I am profoundly worried about this country.

I'm worried for my country. And this isn't a partisan thing, Maga. I again, Maga Trump won big this week. This isn't a partisan thing, Maga. I, again, Maga, Trump won big this week.

This isn't a partisan worry.

I worry about all aspects of America right now.

I fear, I come before you this Friday, November 5th, 7th, 8th is it?

2024. And I really fear for my country.
