Good evening. Welcome back to Finnerty. I'm Rob Finnerty. And according to Keith Olbermann, a guy who no longer works in cable news because nobody likes him, the U. S. Men's Olympic hockey team made a mistake by going to the state of the union last night. Here's the tweet. It is official.
The U. S. Women's Olympic hockey team declined an invitation to be political props for Donald Trump at the State of the Union, but the men are still too stupid,
too self-absorbed,
and too misogynistic to realize that this will stick to them permanently.
And Keith Olbermann
is absolutely right. This will stick to them permanently.
These guys will never have to buy a drink at a bar again. Just ask Mike Arruzzione,
1980 team, never again. And I think that most of us only dream that something like this would stick to us permanently.
Here with us tonight is a group of winners who just made the entire nation proud.
The men's
gold medal
Olympic hockey team. Come on in.
They beat a fantastic
Canadian team in overtime as everybody saw, as did the American women who will soon be coming to the White House.
Yes, the women will be going to the White House after all as well. So there's that,
by the way, and that's an important detail.
But the left now apparently think it's a good idea to criticize U.S. Olympians for loving their country and for accepting the invitation
from the president to go to the White House and go to the State of the Union. Think about that and ask yourself, how did we ever get to this point where a group of people
hate this country
that much?
Congressman Al Green, another nobody,
was kicked out again for a 2nd straight year this year at the three-minute mark of the speech and Republicans
Applauded and as you know, I was watching
this entire thing play out last night in real time like you were
And I was looking at the House floor where Democrats were forced to fill seats because 74 Democrats decided not to show up.
And I realized how small Donald Trump has made all of these people look
and how insignificant.
74 Democrats
no showed the state of the union,
which has never happened before in American history,
because Donald Trump
has broken these people.
He's broken them completely. Hillary Clinton tweeting mid-speech
that you didn't have to listen to Donald Trump's rambling speech to know that Republicans
are trying to make it harder for millions of Americans to vote,
especially married women,
out of the blue,
out of nowhere. And you read that, and you can't help but ask yourself, what the hell
is that woman talking about?
Over 80%
of Americans want voter ID. That's not controversial.
It's a fact, Hillary.
And then CNN this morning came out with their fact check of the president's speech
with what we call fake facts, like this 1. Donald Trump, quote, falsely claimed gas prices are now below $2.30
a gallon in most states and in some places
are $1.99
a gallon.
But what CNN failed to mention is that the national average for a gallon of gas according to AAA today
is 297 a gallon. And that's the lowest it's been in 6 years.
Or that under Joe Biden, his predecessor, gas averaged over $5 a gallon nationally
for the 1st time in American history.
But that's CNN. Facts without any context, meaning they are fake facts. Because Donald Trump has broken these people completely.
They couldn't even stand for this.
If you agree with this statement,
then stand up and show your support.
The 1st duty of the American government is to protect American citizens, not illegal aliens. Yeah!
Applause You should be ashamed of yourself not standing up. You should be ashamed of
yourself. Good for the president for pointing that out. Not a single Democrat stood for that,
meaning there is not a single elected Democrat in America
who thinks that their 1st priority as elected officials in America
should
be you. American citizens, American taxpayers, American children,
over people who have absolutely
no moral right or more importantly no legal right to be in this country. And I don't say that to be mean. I say it to point out how lost we've become.
And I've said this before, but imagine you're on vacation and you're in another country, anywhere, pick a country.
Now imagine trying to vote in an election in that country
while you're there.
It's crazy to even think about, right? Well, welcome to America,
where illegal aliens now vote in every single election.
And yet in November,
millions of Americans all across this country will go and vote for Democrats and send them back to Congress. People like this, people who did not attend last night's State of the Union address, because they thought this was more important.
I'm a mother. I am a physician and I have a flag.
And
I am the proud representative for Oregon's 3rd congressional district.
Yes, thank you, thank you.
And tonight,
I defy Trump
and his authoritarian project
by standing in joyful,
radical,
peaceful
resistance
with the Portland Frog Brigade.
I hope you're laughing
at home. I hope you're laughing. You might be laughing. Hopefully you are.
But Just remember
that thousands of people voted for that woman right there. And at another Donald Trump counterrally
last night, another woman who used to have her own cable news show even sang a really catchy song for everyone.
I said
You did amazing!
Yes.
You get an A. The toga!
Woo!
Really good stuff. We're not
at the speech because we're here for this. It's like a kiss concert. Put your love on the toga.
After that, Democrats invited this thing on stage. And before you see this, I'm totally serious that this happened at another Democrat counter rally last night.
Sing it songs like,
Hey, Mr. Tangerine
Man, get rid of brown people for me. I'm Arian White, there ain't no place I'm going to.
And then all of a sudden, he's not ready for primetime player ice agents with 2 weeks of training come after me.
I got arrested in Portland.
I got arrested in Minneapolis
in the last 3 weeks twice.
But they can't erase a movement, all right?
I mean, honestly, this looks like a Jeffrey Epstein rally if he were still alive That's what I envisioned happening on the Lolita Express on its way to the US Virgin Islands that right there set a giraffe Or is it a leopard or a cheetah or a panther? No, they're 1 color if that's
a giraffe That's a bad costume because you can't you can't do the neck because you can't you got it, right? So, I don't know. Maybe it was a giraffe. I don't know
I hope there are Democrats watching tonight, and if there are 2 things, 1st, welcome. Welcome to Finnerty.
The 2nd
is that, Are you really on that side?
Are you on that side right there? Because Democrats want the public to think that Donald Trump is not normal, and they've wanted this for more than a decade. They want you to think that Republicans
are not normal, that patriotism
is not normal or cool, which by implication can only mean that they want a return to normal and that return to normal would be Joe Biden he's the last most recent Democrat president because life was so normal for all of us when Joe Biden was president.
People have asked whether or not I'm going to tend to say the union address I'd rather stick needles in my eyeballs.
This man is a pathological liar and I'm not going to dignify this speech by sitting there after he tells 1 lie after another. These are not normal times. This is not business as usual, but I will be there to call it his bullsh** on social media, so stay tuned.
Oh yeah, these are not normal times according to 1 elected Democrat. How I long for the days when we were led by a man with dementia and he opened up the southern border and the
Mortgage rates almost at 8%,
gas prices over $5 a gallon, and transgender men showing off their breasts on the South Lawn, men don't have breasts, that was surgically done right there at the White House because that was all So darn normal, wasn't it?
Think about
that. Now tell me what you think is normal. Everything we just went through or something like this. Donald Trump last night honoring the parents
of Irina Zyrutskaya, the innocent woman who was murdered on a Charlotte subway by a career criminal for absolutely
no reason.
Mrs. Zaretsky, tonight I promise you we will ensure justice for your magnificent
daughter, Irene. My reading.
Applause
How do you not stand?
How do you not stand?
I totally agree.
Why would someone not stand for something like that at a State of the Union address. I just don't understand it. But over 70 Democrats didn't show up for the State of the Union last night, which again has never happened before, not even during the Civil War, when we were at war with each other.
And Democrats did this because they want you to think that Donald Trump is an aberration that was elected 2 times, some say 3.
That Donald Trump doesn't belong in the White House, that he is not normal, that Donald Trump and everyone associated with Donald Trump are in anomaly.
But then I watched last night and I realized once again that the opposite is in fact true, that Democrats
are the aberration,
that the people who didn't show up for the State of the Union are the aberration, that the legacy media are the aberration, and the people in the media who were offended by cash
Patel celebrating
when Barack Obama did the exact same thing during the Olympics.
They are the aberration.
The people like Jake Tapper, who covered up Joe Biden's
health for 4 years, then wrote a book about the health cover-up
that he took part in.
That is an aberration.
He is an aberration.
The Americans who are offended by the American flag are the aberration.
This headline, yesterday morning, If waving the American flag or chanting USA
turns you off, you're not alone.
Guess what?
None of that is normal.
But I think this is, and I think you'll agree.
Moving forward, factories,
jobs, investment, and trillions and trillions of dollars will continue pouring into the United States of America
Because we finally have a president who puts America 1st
To put America 1st,
I love America.
We have a copy of the speech that was an ad lib. The president ad libbed that part because I love America. To me, that is the normal that I want. And that right there is genuine. That's not political
theater. It's common sense. And it's a reality that I hope 0.5 the country can return to. Turn 2.
