Hey, it's Jack Cottrell with the bulwark, and today I am so excited to be talking about |
| 0:24.2 | the time-honored tradition of Republicans going on the Sunday shows to debase themselves. |
| 0:29.7 | We know that MAGA generally has this humiliation kink, but today, J.D. Vance, |
| 0:35.3 | oh, he really tapped into it with probably one of the worst performances I've ever seen at Vance. |
| 0:41.4 | He's usually okay at, not to give him a compliment, but like evading questions and pretending that he's the debate bro who's kind of dunking on the lib. |
| 0:51.1 | But today it was horrible for a couple of reasons. The first, |

| 1:43.4 | And the reason you guys are going after Tom |
| 1:45.3 | Homan so aggressively is because he's doing the job of enforcing the law. I think it's really |

| 1:57.4 | He gets constantly threatened by people because he has the audacity to one who |
| 2:02.7 | enforce the country's immigration laws. I think that it would be a much more interesting |
