| 0:00.0 | Well, howdy there, internet people it spell again. |
| 0:05.0 | So today, we're going to talk about Trump getting a veto overridden. |
| 0:12.0 | The Republican-led House is reportedly going to vote on overriding two of Trump's vetoes. |
| 0:19.0 | Ever since Trump vetoed two Republican bills, there's been a small rebellion growing within the party. |
| 0:27.6 | Trump vetoed a water infrastructure bill that would have benefited mostly Republican voters in Colorado, |
| 0:34.3 | and vetoed a bill that would have given the Mikasaki tribe more control over its tribal lands. |
| 0:41.8 | Both bills passed with bipartisan support. |
| 0:45.7 | Republican Representative Lauren Bobert of Colorado said shortly after the veto, quote, |
| 0:53.0 | President Trump decided to veto a completely non-controversial |
| 0:57.8 | bipartisan bill that passed both the House and Senate unanimously. If this administration wants to |
| 1:05.8 | make its legacy blocking projects that deliver water to rural Americans. That's on them. |
| 1:13.7 | Bobert later promised this isn't over. She appears to be keeping her promise. While at time of |

| 1:46.3 | Trump may have broken one of the biggest rules of command. Never give an order that won't be |
| 1:52.7 | followed. Because once he's defied on one subject, it becomes easier and easier to defy him on other subjects afterward. |
| 2:03.4 | While Trump's grip on the executive is as firm as ever, he is slowly losing grip on the |
| 2:09.9 | Republican Party as a whole. It had been an ongoing process, but it became incredibly evident after Trump's failed campaign to block |
| 2:20.5 | release of the Epstein files. First, he tried to block it from being brought up. Then he tried to |
| 2:28.2 | block the discharge petition, but he lost every step of the way. There are also rumors of a little rebellion going on with the budget packages that might actually stop a lot of Trump's freezes and reorganization attempts. |
| 2:45.0 | An override of a Trump veto by his own party pushes Trump even further into lame duck status. |
