| 0:00.0 | Welcome to another episode of This Fucking Guy, the show where we spotlight one fucking guy making America worse and explain why they suck. |
| 0:08.1 | I'm Aaron Ryan, host of Crooked Media's hysteria podcast. |
| 0:11.5 | And I'm Alyssa Mastrimonico, the other host of Crooked Media's hysteria podcast. |
| 0:15.6 | Alyssa, have you ever seen the movie Election? |
| 0:18.2 | Oh, yes, it's a classic 1999 dark comedies starring Reese Witherspoon and Matthew |
| 0:23.6 | Broderick about a high school teacher whose dislike for a hard driving ambitious student |
| 0:28.0 | causes him to get involved in sabotaging a student government election. Reese Witherspoon turns |
| 0:32.6 | in a generationally iconic performance as the annoying tryhard Tracy Flick. Well, Alyssa, it occurred to me while I was researching this episode's subject that Maga has its own Tracy Flick. |
| 0:44.4 | It's Caroline Levitt. |
| 0:45.8 | Yes, ma'am. |
| 0:46.6 | Who went from failing to become the youngest member of Congress ever to succeeding in becoming the youngest White House press secretary ever. Wow, the parallels are |

| 1:11.2 | as you'll see. On one hand, you have to respect the hustle. Apparently, Leavitt has got the work |
| 1:16.2 | ethic of a border collie on cocaine, but that sort of work ethic driven by ambition for ambition's |
| 1:21.7 | sake is a recipe for, at the very least, a deeply obnoxious person. at most, the political equivalent of the scary cop |
| 1:29.2 | Terminator. So let's get into the life in times of the 28-year-old White House press secretary |
| 1:33.8 | who is poised to be the youngest woman ever to throw her back out, flaring her nostrils. |
| 1:39.6 | Caroline Clear Leavitt was born on August 24, 1997 in Atkinson, New Hampshire, to what she describes |
