Hello, hello, hello. How is everybody? This is John Mason. Tomorrow is Mother's Day. And that is the time we pay our respects to all the women in our lives, our mothers and our wives, and our girlfriends, and our sisters, and every other woman that we come across. Happy Mother's Day, ladies. And if we want the best for the women in our lives, we must protect our reproductive rights. There are all these states go around that places the most onerous restrictions on abortions. Like you only have an abortion after so many weeks before you even know the woman even knows that there's a fetus inside of her. And you remembered uh Katie Brett, the senator from Arkansas, who had this very bad case of ham acting after Biden's uh State of the Union address. Is that the best Republicans can do? Well, anyway, she has this bright idea of a database. She's proposing this bill that would establish a database for all women who are pregnant. Hello, hello, hello, John Mason. How is everybody? Hope you're all well. I'm terribly sorry that I have been keeping in touch with you. Life intrudes. And unfortunately I will not be putting out a Mason missile for this month, however, watch out for next month. Our current commander in chief, Marf, has been really aggrandizing himself. Along with his eyesore monstrosity of a of a ballroom and pla where the East Wing used to be, he's talking about a triumphal arc. Just like the Arc de Triumph in Paris, to commemorate his own glory. And it will be facing Arlington National Cemetery where where are where those who serve their country and paid the ultimate price are laid to rest. The same people who our commander in chief keeps calling suckers and losers. Just remember, please, that these suckers and losers come from the working class and the small towns and the inner cities of our country. And insulting our military people, he's insulting all low-income and working class Americans. Please keep that in mind. And I hear this, and there's this one piece of news coming out. To commemorate the the 250th anniversary of our glorious country, God help us. The federal mint will be putting out a $250 bill with Trump's face on it. This is along with having to find his ugly mush in our passports. He's all about himself. His own self-aggrandisement. And now we have to now we have rumors about his health, such as it is. The swollen ankles, the bruised hands, the trouble he has walking and standing, the cognitive uh problems. What really is going on? Certainly you can't get from this regime or this or his press office. It you can't rely on them. As they have no honor or integrity. He's like every other dictator. He wants to project the image of a big, strong, heroic leader of men. And so we'll have to see. We'll have to see. All I want is what's best for this country. It will start with the removal of Trump. Sooner the better. And what is it with uh uh the war, not a war with Iran? Are we negotiating? Are we not negotiating? Do we have a settlement? Do we not have a settlement? Watch the story. Again, we can't trust this regime. Trump's gonna want to put the best face he can on it. So let us keep up our protests, our campaigns, our letter writing, our organizing, our educating, and voting. Even the Republicans will realize that we're on to them, that we're rising up against them. They're starting to realize even that Trump is a lost cause. And start balking at the at this slush fund he's organizing, his anti-weaponization funds, his $1.776 billion slush fund, supposed to be uh in honor of uh the Declaration of Independence. Like I said, it's a slush fund for him to uh pay off his uh the January 6th rioters who uh stampede it all through the Capitol in his name. If he if he pays them off, he'll he'll know that uh they'll keep on working for him because they'll know he's got his back. They got their back, he got their back. He got their back. Of course, you know with Trump, he's not loyal to his loyalists. A lot of time associates and friends, he'll dump when it's convenient for him. It there's been comparisons to a similar fund that Hitler, after attaining power in Germany in 1933, organized a similar slush fund for it so he could pay off uh his SA and SS goons and allowed his party officials to dip their fingers in it. That's what we're up against. We're standing strong and let's keep it up. We can beat this bastard. And on that you're no advertisements.
