Maga Mike has done it again, shutting down the House floor at 2:03 AM on Friday morning and saying we ain't gonna be working on the House floor as members of Congress until Monday at 12 PM in the afternoon. If you take a look at the minutes, as I've been analyzing from the House clerk, you'll see what went down at 2 AM in the morning, 2:10 AM and 3 seconds to be exact. The House adjourned pursuant to a previous special order. The next meeting is scheduled for 12 PM on April 20th, 2026. And if you delve a little bit deeper into what happened, there was a unanimous consent motion that the House would be adjourned on Friday morning at basically 2 AM, so people would stop working until Monday. Now, there was hearings still in the House of Representatives and the Senate. We've been covering those. But in terms of votes on the House floor, Bagham Mike shut that down. And I don't know what vote may be significant on the House floor. I don't know, maybe assert your Article 1 authority to stop Donald Trump from engaging in this unlawful and catastrophic war as Donald Trump pretends that Iran opened up the Strait of Hormuz and there's free access.

And guess what? According to Donald Trump, American military excavators working side by side with their friends, the Iranian excavators, and they're going to find that nuclear nuclear dust together. They're putting in a little nuclear dustbin. They're bringing it back to the United States. One problem, everything false. Ships ain't leaving the Strait of Hormuz. There's no free access through it. Iran controls it with an iron fist. Iran ain't giving up their uranium. Donald Trump just lied about everything. But guess what? He called up a lot of porters, reporters. He called up CBS and he called up NBC and Reuters and News Nation and this one and that one and videos, and they all just said, Donald Trump said, Donald Trump said. Do you see the coordinated plan right here? Let me spell it out for you. MAGA Mike shuts down the House floor to stop additional votes regarding the War Powers Authorization to potentially stop Donald Trump from this unlawful conduct, or at least bring it to the people's attention. MAGA Mike shuts down the House floor. Donald Trump Lies, manipulates the market, calls up all the members of the press, makes up yet another fake deal that doesn't happen.

But did you pay attention to what went down late last night? Did you see what went down? It was announced by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessant, or I should say there was a little footnote that went out the wire when people discovered that the United States was extending the revocation of sanctions against Russia. You know how Bessant said, we're gonna keep those sanctions on against Russia after we have a deal. Well, now you're claiming there is a deal, which you obviously don't, and you've continued to remove the sanctions against Russia. Russia, the big beneficiary, the Russian sanctions, the sanctions on Russian oil removed, now Russia could sell their oil and make billions and billions of dollars. So MAGA Mike shuts it down, and then Treasury Secretary Scott Bessant, he's the one starting to, you know, he's messaging this and he's asked, so why aren't people feeling good about the economy? Watch what Bessin says as the House floor shut down. Play this clip.

Why aren't we seeing this sentiment? Why are people feeling better?

Well, I, you know, I, I, when I was in the investment business, there are consumer surveys, but I used to look at what are the people really doing. So at Treasury, We have loads of CEOs come through, whether they're in retail, credit card, the banks, and the consumer, while they may be sounding grim, is actually quite buoyant. So we are seeing spending has been very solid across most categories.

So they may not feel good, but—

Well, look, in their heart of hearts, they feel good. I'm not sure what they're telling the survey people.

And then you had Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick. And Howard Lutnick starts to say that he hates people who suck. He's like, the worst thing is that there are sucking sounds and people keep sucking off and sucking. What is he talking about here? Play this clip.

The worst thing I learned when I went into government is the sucking sound of how many people try to suck off of the US government. I mean, it was— it's so demoralizing to watch that stuff.

Look, And then he says, don't you worry, everybody, 6% GDP growth, it's right around the corner. Here, play this clip.

Fundamentals of the US economic underpinning remain, right? The war changed that model, created fear and uncertainty, but the growth rate in the United States will hit 6% under Donald Trump's leadership.

It will hit 6% annual GDP growth under Donald Trump's leadership, but not this year.

Well, let's see. Let's see.

I mean, you know, you have today, if the Straits of Hormuz open, there's always a band with like the Lutnick thing at the top and then like you got Treasury down here and the Democrats down here. But you're holding it at 6%.

I am, because I know the commitments of build in America. I mean, the fact—

And then he says Canada sucks. He goes, they're sucking sounds. Then he says Canada sucks. And this is a weird, so weird, weird regime here. Play this clip right here.

The time is on our side because the pressures on the US are only going to increase over time. Basically, you guys are in political trouble. The longer they wait, the better a deal you're going to have to do.

Good for them. That is like the worst strategy I've ever heard. They suck. They— look, we are a $30 trillion economy, right? We are the consumer of the world. Okay. Carney has a problem with us. He gets on a plane and he goes to China. Does he think China's— the Chinese economy is going to buy his stuff? China is entirely an export-driven economy.

Right.

So what did he do? He came back and said, oh, we'll take their electric cars. I mean, is this nuts?

So as MAGA Mike shut down the House floor, you then have MAGA Republican Stutzman or Stutzman. He goes on CNN and here's what he has to say. Play this clip.

President Trump is a tough negotiator. I mean, we've been really able to watch him negotiate almost as a as a general public through the Truth Social post. And there's days you're like, wow. And but this is the way he negotiates.

He's a tough negotiator and he gets results, including threatening taking out an entire civilization.

Well, and you know what? That was one of the things that, you know, they, as he said, they say death to Israel, death to America. And I think we have to take them seriously, you know, and while they are a much smaller country and they don't have the capabilities that we do as Americans, We still have to take it seriously. And I think that those were the types of words that they understood what those meant. I believe that he never intended to do that, but he was— it was simply the rhetoric to put them in a position of he means really, he means business.

I mean, you can't even admit that threatening an entire civilization is bad. You have— yeah, you can't just say no, we shouldn't be threatening to eliminate an entire civilization. That's called a genocide. What are you— what are these people doing? Then you have Jim Jordan saying, look, I just think the Democrats are crazy. They're crazy folks. They're crazy, crazy, crazy people. Hey, Jim Jordan, meet a mirror. Y'all are actually a bunch of lunatics. Here, play this clip.

No, I mean, I think we're gonna win. I think we're gonna win because the left, every position they take is crazy. You know, I was— I don't know if I said this on your show a few weeks ago, but I was doing some interview and I said, I think this election is really going to come down to a couple sentences. They're crazy. We're not. And you can look at every policy they have. We just talked about sanctuary jurisdiction policy. That's crazy. Makes no absolute no sense. This idea that, oh, we're going to defund ICE makes no sense. We're going to defund the police. That's crazy. We're going to have men compete against women in sports. That's crazy. We're going to shut down the government for 42 days in the fall, 50-some days here in the spring. All those things are crazy. So I do think we have to remind the voters that the left is crazy.

All right.

And then while that was taking place, um, the one hearing that was going on, we've been covering it, and you gotta give a hat tip to her. Democratic Congresswoman Summer Lee, her cross-examination of RFK Jr. So House floor shutdown, there were still hearings taking place. And you know, the MAGA Republicans wanted to hold their performative hearings and not actually address issues. But take a look, take a look at this cross-examination by Congresswoman Lee. Let's play this clip right here.

Your agency told programs to remove a list of nearly 200 words and phrases from their funding applications, including the Black. Do you have an idea of how we could solve the Black maternal mortality crisis if we can't say Black?

President Trump is trying to end division in this country, not so—

Sorry, not eviction.

During the last 4 years, that's what DEI did. It divided people, it polarized people.

No, no, no, no, no.

We're not talking about eviction. We're talking about—

We're talking about DEI.

We're talking about healthcare disparities. So what we're asking is, is if you attack DE&I and then we have a crisis that impacts one population over another, but but you cannot direct specific spending or research or interventions to that population, how do you solve the problem?

Do you think the federal government should be paying for DEI?

I think the federal government has a vested interest in ensuring that its citizens survive childbirth.

Well, we, we are meeting that obligation.

We are not.

Oh, that— I can explain to you how we are.

Uh, you have not done so, so far. But also, I would say that, you know, we can improve healthcare for everybody at the same time as helping the people who are most likely to die. That's what de and I— well, first of all, de and I make sure that we have Black doctors or women doctors. We're talking about the fact that we have a mortality rate that is not matched by any other country as, as what we would call developed as ours. Really quickly, and yesterday—

now, what was going on with state regime media? Here's what Fox talked about in terms of foreclosures increasing. Play this this clip. According to Realtor.com, home foreclosures jumped 26% in the first 3 months of this year. The foreclosure rates were highest in Indiana, South Carolina, and Florida. Back on CNN, Harry Enten had this rah-rah moment. Let's play this clip.

It's the group that helped put him in the White House in 2016 and then again in 2024, the group that shifted tremendously from 2012 to 2016. And put him in the White House. We are talking about non-college white voters, and he is sliding right into the water. This is a rut row moment, to quote the great Scooby-Doo. Trump's net approval rating with non-college whites—

look at this—

in February of 2025, it was +32 points. Down it goes. Look at Johnny. Johnny is just shocked by this number. And now it is -2 points. That is a 34-point shift. And I will note, this is an average of polls. This is not just one poll. I've averaged 3 different polls here, 3 big pollsters. And what we see is Donald Trump actually underwater with non-college whites who, of course, put him in the White House.

Really?

Moment.

Yes.

Really, John?

Democratic Congressmember Adam Smith had the following to say. Let's play it.

The president says Iran has said they're going to give up their, you know, any desire to have a nuclear weapon and that they're going to give up their enriched uranium. There's There's absolutely no evidence of that. And it would be remarkable if they have already agreed to give up their enriched uranium. It's also remarkable that the president of the United States can say something like that, which seems on the face of it to just be ridiculous, and it not be headlines that the president of the United States is— if he is making something up of that magnitude, that's extraordinary or should be extraordinary.

Oh, God, that's just pure fantasy on his part. And look, This has been Trump. I mean, he's always saying stuff that's completely untrue, and somehow people have decided that's okay. It was never okay, all right? Whatever the alternatives may have been, to have a president this disconnected from reality. I mean, remember, he's been saying for, what is it now, 9 years that— or sorry, 7 years— that Iran is begging him for a deal. They're begging him for a deal. And that was never true. So we have a president who doesn't even know what the truth is, leading us into a devastating and costly war. And we had a vote today in the House to end this war, and all of the Republicans just signed up and saluted and said, let's follow the guy who's just making it up as he goes along. It's a huge problem that I think we need a lot more pushback against.

And finally, you had state regime media, which calls itself Fox, attacking the Democratic Congresswoman-elect Mahia, who just won in New Jersey's open congressional seat. And this is how Fox attacks her. They go, you know, and this Congresswoman-elect Mahia, she's against ICE. She accuses Israel of committing genocide in Gaza. She wants to impeach Justice Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito. She believes in a $25 federal minimum wage. She wants to cancel all student loan debt. She wants to tax the wealthy. She wants universal healthcare. She wants universal childcare.

She's a—

she's crazy. So just so you're all clear, when Jim Jordan and Trump and Bessant and Lutnick and state regime media refer to Democrats as crazy, the crazy policies that they claim are crazy Just pull up the photo, guys, just so everyone— they're saying these policies are crazy when those policies are true and accurate and things that most Americans agree with right now, as they should. Play this clip of State Regime. Let's play it.

Because Mejía, like AOC and Bernie Sanders, believe that America at its core is evil and corrupt. And of course, she wants to abolish ICE. She wants universal childcare, universal healthcare. Canceling all student debt, national minimum wage up to $25, impeach Clarence Thomas and Sam Alito. Now, this menu of destructive ideas is no longer considered though fringe in the Democrat Party. It's gone totally mainstream. It is a deep hostility to our country, to our history, to the capitalist system.

There you have it, folks. MAGA Mike shutting it down yet again. Shutting down the House floor. No votes. So ridiculous. Hit subscribe. Let's get to 7 million subscribers. Thanks for watching.
