Summary

Join Jared Yates Sexton & Nick Hauselman every Friday over on Patreon in their new series called "The Weekender." In a little more of a casual conversation, they'll provide the same insights and analysis you find with their regular Tuesday show here, but also spend more time digging deeper. On today's show, they discuss the ramifications of attacking the Capitol, whether it will happen again, and why the need for the 25th Amendment and/or Impeachment (again) is imperative.

0:00.0	Hey everybody. Welcome to the Muck Wrecked Podcast. I'm Nick Houselman and this is an announcement to let you know that we are going to be doing a new series called The Weekender over on Patreon that will appear every Friday.
0:12.1	And this is a little sneak preview so you can get a handle on what it's like and why you'd want to go over there and join the Patreon and be part of that community, which has been incredible and amazing with a lot of people there and a lot of great conversations.
0:24.2	So here it is. Check it out. And feel free to check out the actual Patreon as well at patreon.com slash muckrake podcast.
0:32.5	Hey, everybody. Welcome to the Weekender edition of the Muckrake podcast.
0:40.3	Jared Yates-Saxton here with Nick Hausman. To get everybody up to date, we had a coup attempt yesterday.

0:45.3	You know, saw on the news, saw what was going on.
0:48.3	We did an emergency podcast, which I think we both knew eventually something was going to happen.
0:53.3	I felt a little prescient knowing eventually something was going to happen. I felt a little prescient, knowing that there was going to be a need for something like that.
1:00.8	But even I, after years of yelling about this thing, was a little bit shocked by how it turned out.
1:07.9	Nick, we're one day removed from a coup attempt.
1:09.9	How are you feeling?
1:27.5	Oh, not good. Um, I was up all night watching. Here's what I want to say. I like the energy that the Congress had to say, F this, we're going to get back in session tonight and just finish this. I like that. They didn't postpone it for any extra longer time because I would have thought, oh, great, it's going to be a week. Now, part of this could very well be they wanted
1:31.1	to get the hell home, which is interesting only because it sounds like they're leaving. Nothing's
1:36.5	going to happen until the inauguration, which means how are they going to prosecute anything else
1:40.8	like a, you know, a 25th Amendment or impeachment.
1:45.7	A seditious act by the sitting president of the United States of America.
1:49.7	Yeah.
1:50.5	Nonetheless.
1:51.2	I, yes.
