Manny and Shawn: Hi, everyone. Welcome back to the Manny Shawn Experience Show. This is episode 112. Episode 112. 112. Welcome back to the show, everyone. How are you guys doing? Hopefully you're doing well. Hoping you're doing super fantastic. We're back. We're back for another round of this bullshit. How are you doing, manny? How am I doing? You know, I've been listening back to our episodes and I'm like, I've been doing really bad mentally over the last couple of weeks. I'm like, I've been talking about that shit since like January. It's allowed. I know it is my podcast is your podcast, also you are allowed to have a stuff on your shirt. It's a black shirt. Anyway, you are allowed to have mental unhealthy days or I mean, we all have mental breaks. Yeah, that could last a couple of hours, last a couple of days, could last a couple of weeks. So, you know, if you're listening to us and you're having mental breaks, hey, I'm right there with you. I have upped my therapy now to every two weeks. Look, sometimes it's an unit. Yeah, but it is what it is. How are you, Mr. Sean? I'm doing all right. Pretty good. Can't complain. Yeah, I feel like I'm in a good headspace this week, even though work was a little crazy there towards the end of this week. Looking forward to a new week. And starting over. Right. That's how our lives are. You know, after you turn a certain age, life is like, well, Monday's one of five. I mean, I feel like most people feel like that. It's like, I mean, I don't get the Sunday scaries as they call them. Yeah, I guess I don't really get those. It's just like, I know I have to go back to work on Monday. I'm not going to sit here in front and waste my Sunday worried about Monday. I know, guess once I get at the end of the day, Monday, I'm like, well, four more days till the weekend. Exactly. I hate And then on Friday, you'd be like, well, let's wrap this up. Everything else is a Monday problem. I don't, I'm not a fan of living like that, but. Of living like what? You know, one to five, two to five. Oh, I mean, whatever you got to do to get yourself through the week. I guess. Anyways, but here we are, another episode. ⁓ By the time this comes out two weeks into March, we have sprung forward today, day of recording. Do you understand it better now? I don't care. ⁓ I just know I woke up at seven and I'm like, well, it's dark. I went back to sleep. ⁓ And also this weekend, we went to a new restaurant. Yeah, we went to Wagamama. Wagamama. It was our first time trying it, but I think we will be back because the food was good, the drinks were good, and the service was good, and the atmosphere was good. Except we were at the single parents table ⁓ section of the restaurant because when we got there, we didn't have a reservation, but Mani said we didn't need one because everything was open. I mean, when I checked for reservations, was... Every 15 minutes there was a table. So when we walked in and it seemed like there wasn't tables, I was like, And she was like, do you mind a high top? And we're like, no, that's fine. And I only didn't mind the high top. Because you had a back. Because it had a full ass back. I cannot stand a restaurant. With just a That offers me a high top with a stool. I am old. I need back support. And you're going to put me. On a stool? So there was a table beside us and there was a lady there with her daughter, her young daughter. And then later during the meal, another lady showed up with her young son. was like, man, he was like, did they sit us in the single parents? This is the miscellaneous section. The gay couples, the single parents. But it was a good time and I would definitely go back. Yeah, it's like pan. Pan-Asian? Sure. It's like Asian cuisine. have pad thai, curry. All I know is the food was my level of spice and I loved it. It was delicious. bang bang cauliflower. Yes. I think that's it was called. That's some of the best cauliflower I've had. And you actually ate the salt and pepper calamari. The calamari there was top tier. And he hates seafood. And whatever that red sauce was, it was like, I think it was like a Thai sauce. for the calamari yeah yeah it was it was a plum sauce ⁓ i didn't get a plum i thought it was sweet and spicy so i like it there's not a lot of them i've looked but it's the only one here in tampo really i feel like we've seen one i want to say orlando there could be i'm sure there's one there's not they're not like abundant is what i'm trying to say But we tried something new and we liked it. You like it? These people are not going to get that. You have to go watch The Grinch. The Grinch on TikTok and you will find the one where she was like, my grandma made this for you. And then enjoy yourself. ⁓ But anyway. It's a wild Grinch voice. ⁓ Today we are diving into the world of politics. ⁓ You know how crazy things have been here. But don't turn us off. Don't turn us off. It's fun. We're only going to make fun of people politically because it's a ⁓ social and culture podcast. Social and culture. I forgot what we called that down. All right. So we will start society by talking about society. I got you. Just go. Yeah, I just going to gloss over what society and culture. How rude. We're going to talk about our former director of Homeland Security, Miss Kristi Noem, if you would like to step to the front. I'm sorry, where is she at? She ain't at the Senate hearing. We just asked her to come forward in front of the congregation. Girl, if you want a good laugh, Google Christy Noem, like before she became America's Barbie. Ooh, child, she was just the epitome of Karen. She had the cut, the makeup. She looked a little... She looked raw. looked so raw. So did she get a glow up to be the Homeland Security? Did we pay for that? Of course we did. You know what else we paid for? One of the reasons why she might have been fired. But go ahead. We paid for a $220 million ad campaign that was a taxpayer funded TV campaign featuring who? Christina. Herself. A public rift developed when she testified that Trump had personally approved the spending, which the president importantly. Did know nothing about. He said, I don't know what you are talking about. Who? I mean, we didn't need the campaign. We didn't need any other campaigns, any of the things that she's done where she was having herself play on that loop in the airports. The airport's like, we're not playing. We're like, girl, what are we doing? Why do we need a commercial to run in every airport to talk about? the government shut down and the dim, this is the Democrats fault and all it is. And then- she could have done was like, sorry for the delays due to the government shutdown, like something. Right. We thank you for your patience and we thank the men and women that are doing TSA well-not. I don't know, something like that. You could have put a positive, but instead you wanted to talk about the Democrats shutdown. Because this administration can't do anything without blaming the Dems for the things that really are the fault of the administration when you get right down to it. But anyway, about this ad campaign. So apparently, ⁓ this whole thing was like the kind of the people that she knew, her friends, and ⁓ the husband of somebody in her campaign. They didn't do any bids, which you were supposed to do. So they kind of skipped the whole thing and went with the friends and family. She, yeah. And gave them a $220 million contract. A business that started like seven days before they got the contract. And we were watching a bit on Comedy Central, but it was like, wow, how convenient a company that just first bid. Girl, you are doing well. Landed the biggest contract of their life. Makes me want to go out and make business. I mean, you would have to know someone like Christine in order to get that. that not what runs through the social aspects of our political environment? I mean, like I think about Florida and its commuter rail that nobody wanted when President Obama offered monies to. put forward towards that train. And then once the train became a private firm, all the senators down here with the letter of R on their names joined in on their boards and started investing. That's why we can never have nice things because if it doesn't benefit them, then they don't want to do it, but it'll benefit the people. And once they're not in office anymore, Or because Rick Scott was governor at the time when Obama was gave the state the money and he was like, I'm not taking money from Obama, but it's not your, it's not a personal loan. gave to you, he gave it to the state for you to improve transportation infrastructure. And he just sat on that fucking money. And then the minute that a private company was like, we want to do a training, his company pitched in, they invested. And he's making money off of it. Here we are 2026. We could have been had a train between Tampa, Orlando, Miami by now. Orlando, Tampa is not even in the foreseeable future of that train. And by being a private firm, tickets are honestly a little bit price. I love Brightline. Don't get me wrong. It is a nice, comfortable ride. It is a smooth ride. Everything about getting there, getting on, getting off smooth. Beautiful terminal. prices sometimes. Yeah, like $120 some dollars or more for one person. And if there's two of you or a family traveling, it's like, well, I mean, even though gas prices going high because of what was done, we'll be talking about that later, I think. like, you probably going to spend less on gas. I mean, we've taken it more for convenience than affordability. Tell them for convenience. I would love to try their premium, but premium is hard enough to get the standard ticket. Let alone try to get the premium ticket. But I digress. But that just goes to show you how just money moves in politics. know, Kristi Noem got this job. She had an idea of creating ad spots so she can look cute in her little new hair and cowboy hats. And, you know, she said, we're going to help friends and family. It's like when somebody wins the lotto, they're like, we're going to help our friends and family. She was like, I'm in the U.S. government. I'm going to gather some of these tax dollars and help my friends and family. ⁓ Seven days. Like, is that not suspicious? It's very suspicious. That is why they brought it up during the hearing. I mean, they bought up a lot of things, including her alleged affair. with her campaign aid. Somebody in her campaign, yeah. ⁓ that was another thing. She fired, her husband, somebody fired somebody because they left her blankie on a plane. ⁓ yes, and then one of the senators was like, I got you a new blankie. Was that shade? ⁓ Yes it was, would it be shade? I thought it was a Republican being ⁓ just, so it a Democrat I guess. I think it was a Dem, yeah. Cause I was like, I got you a new blankie. And the other one that pulled out that giant size picture of the bed on the plane. got down with one of her aides. Right. And I was like, bitch, this is a level of pettiness and I'm here for it. Cause that picture of that bed was so. She was like, you're showing me the insides of an aircraft with what seems to be a bed. And the gag is her husband was at the hearing behind her. And I'm just like, this cannot be more embarrassing. Well, maybe he's OK with it because he was getting money from the government. So she could sleep with his man. Other more important things that she was accused of doing. Besides killing dogs. Besides killing dogs. There was a lot of FEMA delays in delivery of funds under some of the incidents that happened throughout the US floods, fires, also people being delayed in those FEMA ⁓ funds, same for like local governments. ⁓ The probably biggest one, at least for some of us, the two murders, the two murders that happened in Minnesota under her leadership with the immigration enforcement. And then this also stated there were ongoing reports of leadership failures and friction with the with other White House officials regarding the pace of building new detention centers. ⁓ we weren't building detention centers fast enough? Guess not. Cool. ⁓ What is this country? Apparently there's, I briefly read this. ⁓ They're trying to get small towns to convert old warehouses. Into the detention centers? Yeah, and there's like a... federal government incentive for monies. you know, ⁓ kids that don't risk can't receive lunch or can't afford lunch at school cannot receive a free lunch. But you know, we just want to keep building detention centers. Our priorities are so screwed up in this country. ⁓ We have started wars, we have kidnapped leaders, we have blown up boats. We have detained American citizens. We have killed American citizens. We have arrested American citizens. We have shot a priest in the face with a pepper ball gun. ⁓ And yet we haven't built enough detention centers because our focus is on immigrants and making sure that we get all y'all the fuck up out of here. Meanwhile, the average American can't afford gas, groceries, childcare, basic needs, healthcare. And our president thinks it's cool to bomb Iran because they're two weeks away from building a nuclear weapon. Which somebody made a joke on TikTok. They're like, wait, so I thought we blew up their most massive ⁓ location of uranium? that? Sure. I can't remember what mineral it don't know what it was into an atom. Apparently, was late last year where they bombed. Yeah, we all... successful. And then somebody was like, so wow, that's the quickest rise to creating a nuclear bomb when we allegedly destroyed everything last time. So that just leads us to believe that the reports that came out after that saying that they actually didn't do anything to affect their nuclear program was correct. Or... They don't really have anything that's him because I don't remember the last time. Remember, there used to be like the UN people that would go in and do the inspection, do the whole thing. I don't remember the last time that's been done, but I don't know. But hey, never fear. Why? Kristi Nomes is not leaving. We will still see Kristi Nomes. She has now been appointed as the special envoy for the Shield of America. A new security initiative focused on the Western Hemisphere. Her last day at the DHS is scheduled for March 31st. ⁓ that was supposed to be announced yesterday, was Saturday, which I haven't heard anything about. ⁓ well, they gave us a teaser during the week that I feel like it's just some made up bullshit. So she could stay on payroll. Yes. Hey, girl, like, yes, I'm firing you, but I'm going to make it seem like I put you somewhere else to be in charge of something different. I mean, it's it seems to me that In that role, she could probably kill whoever she wants and just blame it on, you know, defending America. Because that's what she's good at. Just calling people to call and kill, you know? And be a follower around by a cameraman. Exactly. I wonder if that's the guy she fucking. I don't know who she fucking If y'all ever noticed, Chris, know, she always had somebody following her around with a cell phone. Who was usually dressed very strangely. Yeah. And he was recording her every single time. So also she... social media bits. you remember when she tried to use the bathroom at that one place at the police station and they was like they wouldn't let her in and then they made a big old video about it and it's like girl it's not that serious. You could have went to the Wendy's across the street and went to the bathroom. They didn't want you there. I'm quite sure that being the head of the Department of Homeland Security is a very hard job. I'm quite sure it's much harder when you have no experience and don't know what the fuck you're doing. So it does not surprise me that Kristi Noem at some point, because I feel like if you've paid attention to Trump from his first term to this term, there's always a moment of praise and then you do something and then all of a sudden he don't know you. And you did something. where he was made to look like a fool because he said, I don't know nothing about this $200 million ad contract. And she said, I signed off on it. Well, bitch, I'm going to sign off on you and your resignation letter and you being sent. But not enough to take her off payroll. Not enough to take you off payroll. I'm going to save some face for you. Because she's going to run for president. Girl, you don't have a chance. Not a chance. My left slide has more of a chance of being president than she does. ⁓ boy. I'm just saying. Well, farewell on your new position, Kristino. I wish you nothing but what you deserve. And never fear. A new member has been appointed. ⁓ It's a Republican from the state of Oklahoma, which we learned is what? Number one. And what? The worst. education, worst education, a red state, but all of them, Mark Wayne. ⁓ Mullen. He has two first names. ⁓ Mark Wayne, two first names, ⁓ I hear from what I've read ⁓ no different than Christina. So ⁓ we just have the male version of it. ⁓ ⁓ be Homeland Security King. Yes. ⁓ Love that for him. Well, I don't know that he's going to have that big of a blow up. Look, he might get a glow up. He might get some highlights. might, you know, frosted. He'll start showing his chest. ⁓ he's going to wear those slide shoes with no socks on with the little little silver thing at the end. I mean, do what you want. I don't care. I can't wait to see how he fucks this up anyway. It can go both ways. It can't be fucked up anymore or it can be fucked up some more majorly. Hillary Clinton was testifying this week. Yes, the Epstein files. you know, they were saying that the bombing of Iran was also a distraction because there's this whole report about how there is a bunch of redacted Trump things in the Epstein files and there was a reporter or one of the senators that went through them and was like, why aren't these files available to people? And what better way to distract people than to bomb another country and then claim that, you know, they were two weeks away from building a nuclear weapon. How many two weeks away can we get? Listen, I think, you know, I'm sure they have capabilities or had capabilities to do it, but it's no different than when they tell us don't travel there. It's dangerous and you're going to die. And then you travel there and you're like, huh, I don't see the threat. You know, I feel like we're always trying to scare Americans into one, staying put and two, that the outside world is death to us. Right. Like I just. For him to say that I'm doing this because they could bomb the US or whatever the case may be, we are getting the military sense over there. One of the things that came out last week was ⁓ it was leaked that the troops were told that what they were a part of was a part of God's plan. And that. God bestowed it upon Donald Trump to bomb Iran because it was part of prophecy. And I was just like, if I'm in the military and I heard that, I'd just be like, what the fuck are we doing? Like, seriously, what are we doing? I don't know. I'm trying to find the quote that he said about... Well, he also said... ⁓ You know, gas prices are going up now because of that. You know, one where there's a military threat and the passage that moves the most petroleum oil and stuff into the countries. Right. ⁓ He said, you know, you're just going to have to get over the slight increase of prices for now until, you know, they solve whatever they're doing, which I'm like very much paraphrasing that. But that was just a bit like. Fuck yourself. Gas prices are going up. You'll just get over it. You'll have to deal with over here handling this peace thing that I'm doing again involved with Israel. And I really am very careful with this topic because I know how sensitive it is in the world. But I'm just I really am starting to wonder how much Israel really has the best interests of the security of the world versus just trying to push their agenda on differences of culture, religion. I get the difficulties of... Israel, Palestine, that whole thing. But two things can be true at the same time. I feel like we are constantly pushing the agenda of Israel. And I understand that they are a partner of the United States. But I don't understand why we can't see Well, again, there are things talked about behind closed doors. are deals made that we never are privy to. ⁓ you know, we as a country go along with it, even though there is a divide between the people. I think we can all agree that continuing to displace people and kill people is wrong, period. It's not all the people. Yes. Just like every immigrant in the United States is not a murderer or a criminal. No. We treat the entire social aspect of people of a country as like they're all evil when it really is a small percentage of them. And as long as we continue to do what we're doing to these countries, you're going to continue breeding that hatred towards America because they're like, wow, you're just killing my people. They're not seeing just, well, you killed that you're trying to go after the bad people, but you're also killing friends, families. And they that's where it continues to grow. So, yes, as bombing Iran, Right? There were so many people killed during that strike. Innocent people. I think if I read right, a school of 122 girls was killed. And I know people are going to say, well, Obama also did drone strikes and innocent people were killed. Every president, every sentient president that has been within my lifetime has done something that has killed innocence. I'm not saying it's right, I'm not saying it's wrong. But when we go and we start these wars or we go in the aid of Israel, what we are doing is then turning those people who do survive, those children who survive, then internalize rage and hate towards the states or Israel. And then the cycle just begins again, because when they grow up or as they're growing up, they start to form regimes or another Hamas or whatever, Taliban, whatever the case may be, right? And then we are looking at them plotting or them wanting revenge and doing things. And then the cycle just continues. I mean, you can dumb that down to racism. I mean, racism, like it doesn't die because there's always a new generation being bred into it. Because we're not born to hate. We as kids, you play with everybody because you kids and you don't know the difference between this person has darker skin than me and this person has blonde blue eyes. Like you're just kids. You're learning your ABCs together. You're throwing a ball. You're playing cops and robbers. It is instilled in us by the people around us. So, I mean, I just thought we were talking about Hillary Clinton. But anyways, it was a much needed pivot there without even something I wanted something I just am astonished by just to close up the loop here on this unscripted topic. Israel gets three point eight billion dollars per year from. the US. $3.8 billion per year. We're talking about a country that offers its citizens subsidized health care. free healthcare to its citizens and we provide a country with $3.8 billion and we can't provide our own citizens with some version of affordable healthcare. Look, We are, everyone's always touting that this is the greatest country in the world. And we have the ability to be the greatest country in the world, but we allow people who are richer than God to make the rules of this country and continuously elect them to be in positions of power, which I will never understand how you, ⁓ no. You said it, keyword. I did? Racism. ⁓ yes. It's OK if I vote in this senator who doesn't have my best interest at heart because I know that they're going to keep the brown people down. And as long as I'm a step above the brown people, even if I'm poor shit, I'm doing all right. There's so much power in voting. And I know that a lot of people think that their vote doesn't count, their vote doesn't matter, but that's so far from the truth. Because the people that you continue to elect and put into positions of power are the same people that continue to vote for things that take away your rights, vote for things that take away your aid, vote for things that take away your health care. Like we could have free health care in this country. We could. We see it on TikTok all the time. People that go into foreign countries who go to a hospital can see a doctor within 15 to 20 minutes who can get prescriptions, leave there with a bill no more than like 20 bucks, $20 US. like we, just saw a fitness personality, Sean T. I forgot where he was, but... He was in some other country. Where's Teppi? Teppi? I don't know. He he hurt his leg ⁓ on his first day on the trip, went to a hospital he was seen by doctor, nurse and some other physicians within two hours. Everything was done. He had he was in a boot. He was sent home with medicine and that was all within two hours for under five hundred dollars. And here, if you go to the emergency room, it may cost you more than that. I cut my thumb. I cut my thumb. I went to the hospital. It was $3,900 after insurance. $3,900 I had to pay to have an x-ray done on my thumb to make sure there was no metal objects in it. a tetanus shot ⁓ and stitches on my thumb. $3,000-ish. And ⁓ yet we are supposed to be the greatest country in the world. We have freedom. And that was with insurance. Imagine people that don't have insurance. That's why people don't go to the doctor. People would rather be in their house. living off of a bill and then they die there because that's more affordable than them going to the hospital and getting the care that they need because they can't pay a bill. can't have another bill to pay. ⁓ but yeah, I'm sick as hell. I just will never understand it. And I know it's a complicated relationship there with Israel, but like when I see that much money go out and I hate to listen to, to the Trump speech of America first, but it's like, you're not living America first. We're giving that much money. None of this is America first. Nothing to this has to do with America. It's Trump first. It's the billionaires first. It's if you are in a certain tax bracket or you make a certain amount is you first. The rest of the people are suffering and they're not doing they he will talk to you in the language that you understand, which is why a lot of his supporters like him because they feel like he speaks like me. Play. Just because he said build a wall and Mexico is going to pay for it, which never fucking happened, doesn't mean that anything in your life is better. I want one person that voted for him that lives below the poverty line can tell me anything that he has made better for you in either one of his terms, the last one or this one. I'd be open to hearing it. And I just give me one thing that he has made with substance. And don't say he got rid of the illegals. Don't say that. That's not because that technically isn't true either. That doesn't help you anything really. And it doesn't help because there's plenty of US citizens that are murdering, doing drug deals. There's plenty of Americans doing crimes. We love to blame immigrants for everything. But America would be nothing without immigrants. The food that we eat, the culture that is here, it is all from different places. And that's what makes America great is because there is so much coming from all over the world into one spot and we all live and share off of it. America doesn't have anything without immigrants. Whether they're illegal, green card, 90 day fiance, it doesn't matter. Everything that we have is because of different races, different cultures, different backgrounds. And then they want us to be, then they want to be the police of the world. Of the world. You're not doing human rights correctly. You're not doing human rights And I'm like, how can we as a country tell other countries how to treat its people when we ain't even treating our people right in this country? Back to Christy, can know. At her hearing, one of the Democratic senators brought in four US citizens that were detained by ICE and asked Ms. to turn around, look at them, apologize to them as she went through their stories. Christie Noem refused to do that. She went on to say that, you know, each story has, everybody's story has context and we need the context of this and that. The context is four US citizens, And it was just the four that were there. There were more. She had a list of US citizens that had been detained by ICE and the things that they had to go through before they were released from ICE. Imagine treating the four people that were there were white, right? So imagine what's happening to those who English is in their first language. Brown, scared, children. Imagine. what those people are going through in detention centers. Nope. But America first. Yay. Well, I had to open this up with... Oh, who was talking about Hillary Clinton? We were talking about Hillary Clinton. I'm sorry. Just, I'm going play this short clip. ⁓ There was Hillary Clinton just showing her muscle, wasn't she? Because they show they ass. What did Bill and Hillary say in the beginning? That they wanted an open hearing. They wanted it to be public. They wanted it. They didn't have anything to hide, but Republicans said, we're going to do it behind closed doors. during that hearing, Miss fucking Bobert. Little miss, I'm going to jerk you off during a musical special. True story. Google it if you haven't heard it. Decided to snap a picture of her and then put it out. And that's why Ms. Clinton. I think her lawyer brought it up or somebody in her lawyer team brought it up and was like, what the fuck is this? She kind of stopped the hearing and asked the question of why ⁓ pictures were being posted. then mama Hillary just, got, she got upset. She has every right to though. She was like, y'all wanted, I wanted this to be open. Y'all just decided not to be. So why are you snapping pictures and putting them on social media? And then BoBoiBoy gonna pop up, I'm like, I'll take it down. Well, why the fuck did you put it up in the first place? She should have been dismissed from hearing. Taking the picture and putting it up also doesn't do anything. There is no admission of guilt here either because- Well, she put something really- Of course she did. Elaborate and exaggerate. Of course she did. In the ⁓ caption. Of course she did. Anybody that shows up in the Epstein files does not necessarily mean that you were a pedophile, that you went to the island, that you touched anybody, that you did anything with an underage person. You could be in the Epstein files just by being at a party or, Wolfie Goldberg was mentioned in the Epstein files. She said on the view, I want y'all to know right here now and be clear, somebody invited me to the thing. They said they were going to send a plane. and I turned them down and that was the end of it. And if you know anything about Whippy Goldberg is that she does not fly. She actually only performs or does stand up wherever she takes a bus. So she don't fly nowhere. She's like somebody else we saw the other day that don't fly. Nevermind. Okay. But again, I just realized who I'm talking about. you can be in the files and just you could have done nothing wrong. Right. But here's the difference between us and them is like, if a Democrat is on there, by all means, get your ass in jail. Yeah, anybody can get it. I don't give a fuck who it is. We held accountable. Right. Now there's a difference where on the other side, they're like, Well, we want to catch the Democrats or the liberals or my political opponents that are on there. But, know, the ones over here on our side that support what we're doing, no, they don't, they don't count. They don't count as part of that. months were spent combing through the files to take out a certain person's name. And I believe that 100%. If you have nothing to hide, those files would have been out a long time. I would have been clipping that shit myself and putting it on Twitter or whatever he uses. Here you go. Here's all of it. Not a single redaction anywhere other than the, maybe the victim's names. If he had nothing to hide, that would have been his greatest achievement. I think he would have gained even more supporters.
