They’re suddenly realizing what happens to them when they lose

I've noticed something changing lately for the last several months.The message from the White House and from MAGA World has basically been the same.The economy is awesome.Everything's amazing.Negotiations are incredible to end this war.The crowds are incredible.

America has never been stronger.It's never been more affordable.It's never been never been more economically powerful.They've been projecting complete and total confidence.But every once in a while, They, I think, accidentally reveal what they're really worried about.Check out this video of Stephen Miller, who said if Democrats regain power, it's game over.

0:43

Game over is the phrase he uses.

0:45

And one more point on this, Laura, this is existential for this country.You've covered more than anybody.With the Democrats, if the Democrats, should the Democrats regain power?It's game over.12 more justices on SCOTUS, two new Democrat states.They're going to get rid of the Second Amendment.

0:59

They're going to get rid of our borders.They're going to get rid of our police.They're going to get rid of ICE, Border Patrol, DHS.And they're going to elect communists, like actual communists, Laura, not even socialists, communists, who wreck this country.

1:11

Now, there are not even any communists prominent in the Democratic Party.That part is very stupid.But some of that stuff is interesting.We're going to get two more states so that they will have representation as they realistically should.The packing the court idea.I mean, I don't even know that really Democrats are that into that idea.

1:31

And there's a lot of reasons.There's a lot of reasons to do it and a lot of reasons not to do it.But the point here is that Stephen Miller is kind of raising the alarm as to if Democrats gain power, Things are going to change.MAGA MAGA Mike Johnson said if Republicans lose the midterms, all of a sudden there will be investigations.Forget about impeachment.It's going to be much worse than just impeachment.

1:52

Here is the speaker of the House, Mike Johnson.

1:55

If we were to we were to lose the midterms, heaven forbid, these Democrats, your impeachmentnot even the big concern.They will turn every committee of Congress into an investigative body and they'll go after the president's family, the cabinet, his donors and friends.Half of you in this room will be targeted.I run the protection program.I'll take care of you.

2:11

Okay, we're going to win.We're going to win the midterm.There you go.

2:14

They'll investigate Trump.They'll investigate his cabinet.They'll investigate his donors.They'll investigate his friends.They'll investigate everybody.And I have to say.

2:23

It sounds kind of good for the most part.It sounds like they're describing something that they are genuinely afraid could happen.Before I forget, if you're watching on YouTube, hit that subscribe button.The algorithms have been brutal to independent media lately.Subscribing makes sure you won't miss a thing.You'll also help us reach our goal of four million subscribers.

We are so close back to where I was.And think about the implication here.If everything is going as perfectly as they claim, like if the American people really are thrilled when the with the incredible leadership of Donald Trump, if Trump's delivering what voters wanted, why are people like Stephen Miller and Maga Mike Johnson spending so much time warning everybody about what happens if Republicans lose?And the answer is very simple.They know losing is a real possibility.And I think there's something even more revealing here.

3:16

Listen to what they're not worried about.They're not saying You know, if Democrats win, they're going to pass better health care.If Democrats win, they're going to improve education or they might lower middle class taxes.They're talking about the things that affect them.Investigations into what they've done, accountability for what they've done, oversight over what they've done.They're being kept up at night by the possibility of accountability.

3:45

And Mike Johnson isn't warning, you know, Democrats might be making better arguments about policy.He's warning they're going to have subpoena power.And that is a tell congressional.investigations are one of the primary constitutional responsibilities of Congress.When one party controls the White House, the House and Senate, as Republicans do right now, Oversight diminishes when the opposition wins control of even a single chamber.At least you can do hearings and document requests and subpoenas and get people to testify under oath.

4:16

That is not a radical new invention.In fact, that's how the system is designed.When we talk, you know, sometimes about impeachment and a lot of people go to the political calculation.Could it work this that the other thing impeachment is a con a congressional responsibility.If you see impeachable actions, you must impeach.And if Democrats win the House, as I expect them to do in November, I also expect that there would be investigations.

4:45

Why wouldn't they be?Republicans spent years investigating.I mean, listen, look at look at the list.There were the Hillary Clinton Benghazi hearings.They investigated Hunter Biden.They investigated the Biden administration.

4:58

They launched one inquiry after another.sometimes with, I guess, some evidence.They certainly didn't think congressional oversight was inappropriate then.So, yeah, if Democrats regain subpoena power and decide, hey, we believe there is evidence pointing to we should investigate the Trump administration, that is called politics.But it is also called checks and balances.And the ironic part is that Stephen Miller and Mike Johnson are accidentally making one of the strongest arguments for why elections matter.

Hey, supporters, political power isn't permanent.What is in the majority today might be in the minority tomorrow.And the part that I sort of find the funniest of all of it is that after years of insisting if you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear.They sound really afraid about investigations.I don't know who will win the midterms.We have a ways to go.

5:54

The House is looking pretty good.The Senate's looking kind of OK.But I do know that when the people running government spend this much time warning their supporters, do you know what's going to happen to us if we lose?They started imagining that possibility themselves.And if we look at these clips, they don't like what it means.There are a lot of very good reasons to put boot these Republicans out in November.

6:19

And one of those reasons is judging them by their own standards and the promises they made.They failed to deliver on all of it.But giving people investigative power to look at the facts of what's happened and determine whether subpoenas are appropriate, whether special counsel's appropriate, whatever, that is a really good reason to vote these people out in November.And I hope that we do it.for a while.
