All right, this episode I want to talk to you all about the fissures that are forming in this authoritarian regime.

And it's super important that we keep an eye on those.

The compounding evidence of dementia in Canks and his confession that he is taking dementia tests and can identify a giraffe

on a piece of paper and that he is receiving MRIs, the wondering walkabout in Japan. Just this

morning in South Korea, he is seen going down the stairs of Air Force One death grip on the

staircase. And so for an authoritarian regime, when the strongman starts appearing weak, more

and more fissures emerge. And then the third component of this episode will be the opposition.

So first, let's talk about the

fissures in just the establishment Republican Party. Kylie put up the tweet. The Senate voted 52 to 48

to overturn Donald Trump's 50% tariffs on Brazil. Five Republicans joined Democrats and supporting the measure. Mitch McConnell,

Rand Paul, Tom Tillis, Susan Collins, I guess she was very concerned about this, and Lisa

Murkowski. And this is a very important moment because once fissure start in these authoritarian regimes, when the

strong man is appearing weak, and even just those five that went and voted with Senate Democrats,

it starts catching on like a contagion. Now, if he were over there dunking on everybody and, you know, doing backflips

and looking like he was just healthy as shit, this wouldn't be as significant, but everybody

is sensing blood. And there are people that are starting to jockey themselves in a post-Maga,

a post-Trump position. I look at this and I think, you know, these are the same

people that have voted along with him time and time and time again. So in my mind, I'm thinking,

why aren't they voting to overrule the tariffs on Canada? Why Brazil? What's the underlying thing there?

And then Mitch McConnell, he's such a fucking coward. He could have stopped all this. But I do think

it's super significant because when Trump comes back, it's going to be an all-out assault on these people.

And they must know it. Yes. And I think their willingness to take that beating shows that there are a lot of conversations
