Uh, Walker. Walker didn't win, but Republicans did win back the house this year. Jeff, obviously, uh, if people don't know, we had midterm elections this year. Um, Republican res, uh, I, I've, I heard, I, I didn't see it happen, but we did have those,
Oh, goodness.
Um, so we got 2023 right around the corner. January 3rd, new Congress is sworn in. Marjorie Taylor Greene is basically the de facto speaker. Uh, she, she's already been told she can do whatever the hell she wants. And by God, Jeff, she is gonna investigate everything from Hunter Biden's laptop to, to any, you know, anything you've ever said I'm pretty sure is also on her list. Sure. Uh, so just be aware of that.
I welcome it
but Uhoh democrats are in trouble because we're all being investigated in 2023. Um,
What is she gonna do? Is she gonna bring the Guacho police
She is, she's gonna pour some cold soup on that idea. Um, but I, I, I can't help but think, and there's even more Republicans coming out now saying that if we just spend the next two years investigating 2024, we're handing it to the Democrats on the silver platter, which is one of the many reasons why I'm actually perfectly fine with nonstop investigations from the Republican party, because Okay. Worst case scenario, they find some corrupt people and we, and we bust them like, oh, no, bad people get caught doing bad. Like, there's no downside at all. I see.
Yeah. That, no, that sounds great. Let's, let's go with that direction. I mean, they, they have this weird mistaken like idea that we're gonna be upset if they find that Hunter Biden did something criminal and hit, and, and that he gets, uh, prosecuted for it. Go ahead. Yes. Yeah. No, we, we actually do believe in the law. We do believe in the Constitution.
Well, I, I won't, I won't be Wait for Hunter Biden again, I'll tell you that.
No, I know. Uh, yep. He's off the ballot on this time. Yep.
Mm. But, but you're absolutely right because, you know, I I, I posted this on Twitter like a week ago. I was like, I, I've never talked to a single person on the left that actually cares if Hunter Biden gets prosecuted. If they find criminal act like we're all like, okay, fine. We, the DOJ is also investigating him. It looks like there could be tax fraud there. Yeah. Great. Do the process, bring charges. If you find the evidence like, I will lose no sleep at night, that will not change my opinion of Joe Biden or any other Democrat at all. I still hold them slightly above where I hold Republicans and that's not gonna change.
Mm-hmm. Yeah, I agree with you on that. And it's, what they're doing is really showing you, and by the way, this is something that I hope Democrats would actually run on. I don't necessarily think that they will, but if they're smart, they'll go with this and say, look at what Republicans did the entire time that they were in power nonstop investigation. If nonstop investigation. What have they done for you? Have they helped you with inflation? Have they passed any sort of policies that would, you know, help you make ends meet? Have they done anything? No. They've investigated Hunter Biden's laptop. Ooh. You know, they did Benghazi three or Benghazi four. What, what, what are you up to now be like Benghazi investigation, nine or eight, something like that. I don't know. They're gonna, they're gonna try, they're gonna keep going with that. They're gonna go with, uh, the pullout from Afghanistan.
