Yep. Stock options, loans to self, contracting out to your own companies and those of your buddies (who are very generous to you). If you depend on your salary as an owner/CEO you don't deserve it.
As a retired UPS Local 705 Teamster out of Chicago, I have to say thank you to the Late Night team for including the Teamster boss Mr. O'Brien in tonight's Closer Look. He reminded me of my union stewards in that they never took sh*t from management. The union dues I paid every week were worth it! I was a proud Teamster! Another brilliant Closer Look!
Watching the full interaction was hilarious! I think Mr. O’Brien did a fantastic job! I’ve never been part of the union, and used to believe a lot of the lies that the right spread about unions… but the more I’m watching in the last few years, my opinion has changed and I see real value in unions. I am really glad to see them fighting back against these crooks who are profiting off of policies created from the failed Reaganomics.
I just want to say, THANK YOU! I'm the mom of a 17 year old son and he is not interested in politics but I always tell him how important it is. Closer Look is the only thing he'll watch with me! 🤣
The part of that teamster vs CEO clip that really gets me, is right after the teamster says, "You mean you hid money." The CEO suddenly turning away while pointing at the teamster like, "Mommy, the big kid is bullying me!" after talking smack and making wild accusations himself... really showed what the CEO was made of right there in that one, precious moment. 🤣🤣🤣
The weird thing is that the Senator could have thrown back to the Teamster, the history of the union, as the union handed the pension fund to the Mafia so they could build Vegas.
@@drewengel7073 Loaned the money, Hoffa didn't just hand the money over to the mob he loaned it to them at high interest and the teamsters pension fund made a lot of money off of that deal. It went from 400 million to 1.5 billion in 10 years and that is in 1970s money.
"Thats the last four years. We're all pretending we've got a lot to show for it, because admitting what a disaster it's been is too tough to digest. But come on. There isn't really an upside to Trump" -Tucker Carlson
Don't those emails sound like a whitewash of a whitewash?? Almost as if Carlson conjured them up after the fact to suggest there's no basis therefore in charging him with complicity in any form with Tr@?$.
I've worked for UPS in Texas for years and have been a Teamster for all this time. I have a list of things that I'm thankful for due to the work that the Teamsters have done for us here a Local 657. To union reps everywhere I say thank you and soldier on.
Mullins actually lied about the salary he paid himself. His financial statement from 2012 listed his salary as nearly $92,000, the year he was first elected to Congress. The financial statement also has other income that year of over $200,000. He sold the business shortly after being elected to Congress which is why his net worth ballooned to between $30-$75M.
The question should be framed in terms of 'income' not 'salary'... and then followed up by asking if the income answer includes declarable income or income plus benefits in kind.
People were ordering multiple ballots to their home. I can confirm this because my family had four ballots mailed to our house in 2020. Never mind the fact that the four people living in that home were all legally eligible to vote in that election, and each cast their own ballot
Yo the line about Dropkick Murphys was so gold, i’m just listening to the rest of the monologue with “I’m shipping up to Boston” playing in the background- I can’t get enough of this teamster talking trash to Mr. “I’m gonna make people believe I’m middle-class”
I *am* a Boston Murphy (not the Dropkick kind, no claims to greatness) and my grandfather was a labor organizer here. Mr. O’Brien is exactly why we don’t feel bad when people call us a**holes: because we are doing it for a good reason, plus when you resort to that we know we just won.
Fyi, if you're wondering what he meant with the 'so you hid money' comment. He kept his salary low because that's taxable, and had his businesses pay his personal expenses and kept his wealth in the business. Gets to lie to his employees about his earnings and make a fuckload of money
Sadly Dump & Tucker’s brainwashed morons won’t believe it’s true, or if they do they’ll explain it away with some BS or other. The power of wanting to believe is immense, even in the face of mountains of evidence proving it’s a lie
This phucking dikhed has the nerve to say he came from less than nothing... When it turns out that his fam handed him a phucking biz to run when he was 20 years old. And that's just the start of the easy money he was given... He's also corrupt af the deeper you look into it. So glad he highlighted himself to the world as a total fraud.
Major props to anyone with the stones to fight, in public, with these right wing fools. You are heroes and you have to fear for your safety at all times. You are amazing.
I've been arrested 48 times and counting for articles I wrote exposing dirty kops and politicians. In the USSA. NYC. NH. Maine. Mass. all jailed me falsely over and over on IMAGINARY charges like "ATTEMPTED contempt of court" (!!!) and "ATTEMPTED harassment of city hall!" CURRENTLY, I'm being charged in NH with "insults which COULD cause a fight" (!!!), and they raided my home and stole over $50,000 of my musical instruments. A year later, cops in maine stole the remaining $20,000 of my rare musical gear. They stole my van, my scooter, my clothes, my EVERYTHING. Because not one journalist will tell the truth, and the ACLU protects dirty kops 99% of the time, cuz the RICH donate to each ACLU branch annually, to say "PUMP THE BRAKES" on that civil rights crap! The ACLU were busted as TOTAL grfiters in the Johnny Depp trial, but the press downplayed that part!
HALF my 48 false arrests in the USSA have been for........POLITICAL CARTOONS I DREW!! (EX: Then-Mayor Looney Giuliani hated me and my cartoons humiliating him so much.......he smeared me and insulted me on tv and radio 12 times! Not one of my allies had my back (!!) -- cuz all were afraid they'd be NEXT!) Not one person PAID to protect me or free speech has ever helped in any of my 48 false arrests.

The DA BRAGGED of having destroyed over 20,000 PUBLIC RECORDS.....and EVIDENCE in my arrests (!!!)......and ALL VIDEO too......(!!!).....and he did this in a n email to the PRESS and ACLU!! When kops are admitting to the press and ACLU that they DESTROYED PUBLIC RECORDS TO COVER UP FALSE ARRESTS OF JOURNALISTS & CARTOONISTS......nothing is more chilling. It means he KNEW not one person would defend the Bill of Rights or ANY LAWS. And he was right. The press hides millions of police crimes per day. Heck, we just found out THIS WEEK for the first time ever......that the press & govt COVERED UP 1700 train derailments last year alone in ONE nation! (Murica!) 3 train crashes PER DAY??? Every day every year/????
Yup... the reason the court filings either omit or contradict their public claims is because if you lie in a public court filing it is considered perjury.
Speaking as someone NOT living in the US, he was a laugh while he was running for Pres but we stopped laughing and felt angsty when he got elected (are you guys ever gonna dump that Electoral College crap?) ...
The best was when the United Nations laughed at him and he said that wasn’t the response he anticipated but then later said he told a joke. He was literally being laughed at by all nations
The nations of the world all joined in one unifying action. Palestinians and Israelis, Russians and Ukrainians British and Irish all joined together with their common foe just to laugh at this fat, overgrown sack of confederate flag belt buckles.
Why stop now? He didn’t lose his job, wasn’t reprimanded, never apologized, never missed a paycheck. Just like Trump… Tried to over throw the government. Oh, that OK with everyone. Alright, guess I’ll just try again 🤷🏽♀️
Recently, I saw Senator Mullen at the Stockyard in OKC at a very expensive western store. He was spending on goods that were quite expensive not an average person who makes $50k. He was with sons and they had money to burn. A teacher like myself 15 years in Oklahoma only makes $50k. I don't think he supports unions or gives himself $50 k salary.
One thing people seem to be forgetting -- Fox as a corporation and their TV personalities were collectively "never Trumpers" until the moment it was clear that he was going to win the nomination, at which point they jumped on board and basically said "no we never said that." Even Ted Cruz and Mich McConnell took longer to fall in line.
We haven't forgotten, it's what we've been trying to tell people for ages, but there are those who lap up the drivel of fox news because the honestly think that they are...well, being honest with them. They never have, they have always lied and said whatever made the company more money, it's only now that we're getting it from their own mouths.
My favorite part is when he said he "started his business with nothing from the ground up". Turns out he inherited it from his daddy.... These absolute clowns at some point start believing their own bullshit.
I thought the Teamster takedown of CEO/Senator was phenomenal, however, for factual clarity, where did ah CEO/Senator say he "started his business from the ground up"?
I think The Story Goes you got a million dollars from his dad and it turned it into over four billion on real-estate a lot of it in New York City try it uneasy
@@charruz it’s not shown in this clip, but earlier in the in the interaction senator said that he started with nothing, and build his business from the ground up. I saw the clip on a couple of other news channels yesterday, and the entire segment is worth watching.
@@bobdobbs69 Too bad he kicked the bucket back in '08. Since most of his stuff from the 70's was on the money even in the 90's and now I would of loved to have seen what he would of come up with today.
I don't get this? They keep saying stuff that's obviously was and is true and yet they don't take these people to jail; like it's ok. It's the same with Donald Trump.
Daily reminder: “We are very, very close to being able to ignore Trump most nights,” Carlson said in a text on 4 January 2021, two days before the riot. “I truly can’t wait.”
@@devilselbow riot or insurrection, it resulted in massive propaganda and historical manipulation on the part of the greediest, most assinine fascists since Hitler. seem like there are a lot of Jabba the Gitt associates who need their brains laundered and de stained then perhaps they will tell their audience the truth without manipulation. the denial of the deaths and damage caused by the Gitt's braindead moronic worshippers would give any normal thinking person pause and sorrow.
CEO's are terrified of low unemployment. Workers are getting power back. It's unbelievable to me that a CEO believes any company could be successful without good employees who have in the last 40 years not benefitted in the same way the owners and shareholders did.
Thanks to whoever keeps this segment going. Back in my day this would have been the best 30 minutes of late-night TV all week! (Ya burnt is equally as badass but not as reliably scheduled)
I think if Trump ever actually goes to jail there should be a 80" big screen tv but the only channels he can pick from is all the late night comedy shows that have made jokes about him from that last 10 years and ongoing.
We get it you don't like Trump you people have to get over this thing about Trump my goodness it just never stops. Put the laptop down get out of your parents basement go outside do something with yourself you need to get out of your I hate Trump World who cares move on with your life
Again Fox "News" argued in court that no rational person takes Tucks show seriously. Edit: Imagine how we might have better things if Bernie was POTUS.
Bernie was like a broken record with his supposedly policy ideas. And he was a fool to use the term "democratic socialist". That's not how you get votes.
Bernie could never be elected as leader under the US two-party system. That’s why all the good democracies offer a realistic choice of more than two parties to vote for.
And then there's Sidney Powell's source, the time-traveling, semi-conscious, internally decapitated ghost. Between her, Rudy, Pillow Man, Fox, and the rest of the MAGA right-wing crazies, what exactly is the Republican party? Do we even know?
My cousin works 50+ hours a week, owns his own home, and the reason he will be able to afford to send his children to college is because he's a Teamster. All I can say is Go Teamsters!
My grandfather's brother worked for the teamsters union. People say he was a strongarm but who knows. He was a good guy who left his only daughter well set when he passed. RIP uncle Danny.
Judging from those text messages Tucker Carlson is just playing a character like Alex Jones. The problem is Tucker Carlson is doing serious damage to Democracy, while Alex Jones just sounds like a Cartoon Character. 🤷🏿♂️
They are both destroyers. The loudness of jones has been obtuse for decades. The disparagement of saying dead children aren’t real horrific to families. No mending hearts is possible, not from the deaths or from the slander.
Yeah….the Pozner family had to move seven times because they were being harassed by Jones’ rabid fanbase and Jones himself was at the Jan. 6th rally….I would say that they’re both eaually dangerous.
Did Jenna lose her law licence, or has she only been sanctioned several times? In any case, linking herself with Rudy was a major mistake (and she's not even his cousin).
When a "CEO" accuses a Worker for "sucking a pay check" out of the company for his work, you can tell how well capitalism is working for the working class.
While I always love seeing Seth, I think I enjoyed seeing that Teemster more! About time the working man get in these CEO's face. I nearly spit out my drink when he said "You hide it". This is what this country needs a lot more of!
So, so satisfying. It's how I feel when rich ceos/officials talk about how they're feeling the impact of soaring inflation just like the rest of us. Nobody believes that. They're just hiding their wealth.
Loved the edit of Tucker Carlson hearing that Haley Joel Osmet sees dead people. My head canon now is that this is the scene he replays in his head so he can convincingly pull off that look when one of his guests says something ridiculous on his show. Now we know what he helps him not to break! 😂😅
It’s so good that the j6 commission kept all that footage from the public! It’s better that the ever reliable Nancy Pelosi makes the narrative. And that we cheer at the sideline. Like good submissive Dems do.😊
@@andriesquast2028 Footage of traitors before they attacked the capitol isn't evidence of anything.. We all saw what Donalds 'patriots' did on 6th Jan .. Live on TV... Showing footage of them before or after they attacked the capitol is irrelevant...
That union guy is amazing. Don't f**k with unions! It's quite hypocritical coming from some rich guy who talks crap about paychecks and an "honest day's work". That's just a load of bull.
"What job have you committed" is a hell of a Freudian slip from a CEO.
And he actually could have kept going and made it "committed to" instead, that probably would have sounded better.
Yeah, meant to say "crime" as in the same as what he had done.
That was BEAUTIFUL!
Exactly.
I’m pretty sure it was the Senator who said that, not the CEO
“What job have you committed?”
Oops. Time to audit that dude
"I only took a 50k salary" and you can hear him slamming the breaks on the well worn bragging of how he explains the alternate compensation packages awards himself to avoid paying taxes when he remembers he's not at a CEO mixer and these people might actually be able to get a IRS to turn over his papers.
The Teamster guy forgot to ask about stock options.
With respect, I believe you'll find that the things that stop a car are called brakes, not breaks.
Yep. Stock options, loans to self, contracting out to your own companies and those of your buddies (who are very generous to you). If you depend on your salary as an owner/CEO you don't deserve it.
$17m worth at $50k a year…. Must be new math?

Ted Cruz always tries to fall in line with the winning side. Unless he’s in a no-win situation.
Then he goes to Cancun. 😉
@@MultiBlock22 lol true!)
@@MultiBlock22 There is no winning side for democrats, not one of them.
Makes me so happy when these are early!
I salute that Mr OBrien, didnt take anything from that guy.
I absolutely love that the Rudy puddle's eyes were clearly from that "surprised Rudy" picture that Seth refuses to stop using 🤣🤣
My favorite part tonight was the Trump bit at the end. "I look and sound like a lunatic."
My favorite part is when he said he "started his business with nothing from the ground up". Turns out he inherited it from his daddy.... These absolute clowns at some point start believing their own bullshit.
I thought the Teamster takedown of CEO/Senator was phenomenal, however, for factual clarity, where did ah CEO/Senator say he "started his business from the ground up"?
yup.
I think The Story Goes you got a million dollars from his dad and it turned it into over four billion on real-estate a lot of it in New York City try it uneasy
@@charruz it’s not shown in this clip, but earlier in the in the interaction senator said that he started with nothing, and build his business from the ground up. I saw the clip on a couple of other news channels yesterday, and the entire segment is worth watching.
Yeah. What an entitled slap in his dad’s face.

@@bobdobbs69 Too bad he kicked the bucket back in '08. Since most of his stuff from the 70's was on the money even in the 90's and now I would of loved to have seen what he would of come up with today.
The dead people bit!! Brilliant. And it’s great to see Seth’s complete delight with it. Bravo!
I don't get this? They keep saying stuff that's obviously was and is true and yet they don't take these people to jail; like it's ok. It's the same with Donald Trump.
Why aren't they going after Kevin McCarthy for giving Tucker Carlson & Fox News Footage of January 6th? 🤦🏿♂️💢
Rich white oligarchs of America are above the law, no matter what anyone says.
Because there exists no accountability for anything anymore.
Who gave Kevin the tapes?
It'll take a couple of years before anyone officially tells Kevin he shouldn't have done that, with no further action taken.
@@siobhan4243 "accountability" these days means finding dirt on your political enemies for political mileage.
Daily reminder: “We are very, very close to being able to ignore Trump most nights,” Carlson said in a text on 4 January 2021, two days before the riot. “I truly can’t wait.”
It was an Insurrection not a riot. That's why some Traitors have pleaded guilty of Seditious Conspiracy and are serving 20 year's.
@@devilselbow attempted insurrection, thank whatever God may be that they didn't succeed.
@@devilselbow It's a subtle game they play, and it works on a lot of people.
@@devilselbow riot or insurrection, it resulted in massive propaganda and historical manipulation on the part of the greediest, most assinine fascists since Hitler. seem like there are a lot of Jabba the Gitt associates who need their brains laundered and de stained then perhaps they will tell their audience the truth without manipulation.
the denial of the deaths and damage caused by the Gitt's braindead moronic worshippers would give any normal thinking person pause and sorrow.
A statement that clearly did not age very well.
Another hilarious Closer Look - great job Seth! ❤
Yes 😁
Sad thing is, FOX news anchors follow what many Playboy Bunnies said about Hugh Hefner. They say and act one thing but privately are disgusted by him.
CEO's are terrified of low unemployment. Workers are getting power back. It's unbelievable to me that a CEO believes any company could be successful without good employees who have in the last 40 years not benefitted in the same way the owners and shareholders did.
That 'dead people' Tucker reaction didn't get enough laughs. I liked it, too.
Has anyone ever seen MTG and Dog the Bounty Hunter in a room at the same time?
Very suspicious! 🤣
That is really funny very funny! Cudos2u CJ
Wow! You see it too!

"stepped in when their friend started to melt!" 👍
Seth Meyer! THIS MONOLOGUE IS AWESOME. I was laughing my hearts out while you made fun of the truth. Kudos! ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks to whoever keeps this segment going. Back in my day this would have been the best 30 minutes of late-night TV all week! (Ya burnt is equally as badass but not as reliably scheduled)
They put 'Ya Burn't' on the backburner far too often, meesafraid.
I think if Trump ever actually goes to jail there should be a 80" big screen tv but the only channels he can pick from is all the late night comedy shows that have made jokes about him from that last 10 years and ongoing.
They won't know what to do if they lose Trump
@@danmcgriff1421 MTG and Boebert provide plenty of entertainment.
With a dose of Cruz, Scott and McCarthy thrown in on the side.
@@shawnr771 so basically every Republican is just a moron in your point of view
@@danmcgriff1421 No.
I think Mitt Romney, Mitch McConnell, and Liz Cheney are very smart.
The ones I mentioned are clowns.
We get it you don't like Trump you people have to get over this thing about Trump my goodness it just never stops. Put the laptop down get out of your parents basement go outside do something with yourself you need to get out of your I hate Trump World who cares move on with your life
Great monologue Seth 🙏 the truth will set us Free keep speaking out 🙏🇺🇸⚖️
Bernie is a national treasure.
Why is Jenna Ellis blinking as fast as she speaks? 😂
Oh my god this man O’Brien is my hero. He is amazing lol.
Again Fox "News" argued in court that no rational person takes Tucks show seriously.
Edit: Imagine how we might have better things if Bernie was POTUS.
Fox -news- arguing in court that their audience are not rational people.
Not rational, or not people still a question.
Agreed
Bernie was like a broken record with his supposedly policy ideas. And he was a fool to use the term "democratic socialist". That's not how you get votes.
Bernie could never be elected as leader under the US two-party system.
That’s why all the good democracies offer a realistic choice of more than two parties to vote for.
Bernie was the one that got away.
Ok so I'm not a fan of celebrity boxing matches as a rule but if O'Brien and Mullin wanna lace 'em up and step in the ring I'd watch.
Dang, this closer look killed it. I watched it twice.
Haaaaa!!! I did as well- that teamster O’Brien, Sody Giuliani, and T*’s self aware text and impression had me in TEARS 😂😂😂
How is it lying so blatantly, so often, and so easily proven a lie, is so easy to these people?
You might want to ask MSNBC and CNN
@@danmcgriff1421 Don't breed. Faux "News" lie far more than MSNBC and CNN do. FAR more.
@@freya8133 so if I murder more people than you do I'm the bad guy interesting point of view good luck with that
This Closer Look made me laugh until cried I watched it over and again the guy from the Union is hilarious. 😂😂 ty Seth
The “I see dead people” face took me out
10:52 how many blinks can you fit into a 17 second lie??
Omg I can’t count blinks that fast!
About 70-100 blinks. So, so many lies!
Stood out to me too. She should have gone back to holding the phone or hiding in the background.
Is it the lies or the four pounds of eyelash glue making her blink like a lunatic, I wonder.
Thank you Seth for another great A Closer Look.
As always, great job and can't wait for the next installation! Watching from central Mexico!
And then there's Sidney Powell's source, the time-traveling, semi-conscious, internally decapitated ghost. Between her, Rudy, Pillow Man, Fox, and the rest of the MAGA right-wing crazies, what exactly is the Republican party? Do we even know?
Yes David, the republikkkan party is easily the G.O.A.T. of all Insane Asylums!! Too bad we can't lock the gate and throw away the key...yet!
It's extinct. A ghost of itself.
NO! There's evidence! There's so much evidence! JFK Jr will appear on a Florida freeway overpass with it on June 22nd!
Tax cuts for the very rich.
Internal decapitation is rare, but survivable with immediate medical attention.
I absolutely LOVE Bernie trying to be a Referee and break up the fight! Omg! Keep that as a replay, go to clip! 😉
Mr. O'Brien is my new favorite person. The Boston accent is the chef's kiss.
Great to see another video from you all! It's really refreshing content. 👍👍
A Ceo thinks he makes only 50,000 a year? Pure lie.
My cousin works 50+ hours a week, owns his own home, and the reason he will be able to afford to send his children to college is because he's a Teamster. All I can say is Go Teamsters!
My grandfather's brother worked for the teamsters union. People say he was a strongarm but who knows. He was a good guy who left his only daughter well set when he passed. RIP uncle Danny.
EXCEPT for endorsing "Tricky Dicky Nixon" in '72! HUGE BLUNDER THERE!
@@johnmaki3046 Well, you're right. No union is perfect!
@@bryanmachin3738 The Teamsters are VERY FAR from "perfect"!
@@johnmaki3046 What institution made by and for humans IS perfect?
Judging from those text messages Tucker Carlson is just playing a character like Alex Jones. The problem is Tucker Carlson is doing serious damage to Democracy, while Alex Jones just sounds like a Cartoon Character. 🤷🏿♂️
They are both destroyers. The loudness of jones has been obtuse for decades. The disparagement of saying dead children aren’t real horrific to families. No mending hearts is possible, not from the deaths or from the slander.
@@katsong3302 yeah jones takes the prize for scum of the decade for that one
Yeah….the Pozner family had to move seven times because they were being harassed by Jones’ rabid fanbase and Jones himself was at the Jan. 6th rally….I would say that they’re both eaually dangerous.
No, Alex Jones has done serious damage to all children and families affected by mass school shootings...bar none.
Tucker is ARMING THE IDIOTS!
I hate Tucker passionately. The rot this man has wrought upon America, will be a blight for generations.
"Outta line" This is what the entitled class always say when confronted.
This is one of the best in a while. Amazing.
Well.. I'm at the point where I can identify which Rudy picture they photoshopped those eyes from. It's a sad, sad day.
Rudy impression just as solid as ever!!
Poor Jenna, always with Rudy when he's leaking and farting 😂😂
She always looks like she's about to put hand up to her face to hide laughter. Or like she's smirking.
well ... farting is also a kind of leaking...
Drop the needle on the Dropkick Murphy song!
Seth,
It's so very entertaining to watch this.
2:52 Everyone in that room is laughing at him. 🙆🏻♀️🙆🏿♂️
Yes 😁
Don't make fun of Joe like that he's trying
Good show tonight Seth thank you
Did Jenna lose her law licence, or has she only been sanctioned several times? In any case, linking herself with Rudy was a major mistake (and she's not even his cousin).
She's back to work on the Vegas Strip.
When a "CEO" accuses a Worker for "sucking a pay check" out of the company for his work, you can tell how well capitalism is working for the working class.
Hysterical, great Closer Look!
While I always love seeing Seth, I think I enjoyed seeing that Teemster more! About time the working man get in these CEO's face. I nearly spit out my drink when he said "You hide it". This is what this country needs a lot more of!
So, so satisfying. It's how I feel when rich ceos/officials talk about how they're feeling the impact of soaring inflation just like the rest of us. Nobody believes that. They're just hiding their wealth.
Loved the edit of Tucker Carlson hearing that Haley Joel Osmet sees dead people. My head canon now is that this is the scene he replays in his head so he can convincingly pull off that look when one of his guests says something ridiculous on his show. Now we know what he helps him not to break! 😂😅
Oh, that's it! I had always assumed he was doing a version of that weird painting, "The Scream."
Tucker MAY hear from his LONG DEPARTED "brain and conscience" this way!
It’s so good that the j6 commission kept all that footage from the public!
It’s better that the ever reliable Nancy Pelosi makes the narrative. And that we cheer at the sideline.
Like good submissive Dems do.😊
@@andriesquast2028
Footage of traitors before they attacked the capitol isn't evidence of anything..
We all saw what Donalds 'patriots' did on 6th Jan ..
Live on TV...
Showing footage of them before or after they attacked the capitol is irrelevant...
Please have Mac Tonight Actor Doug Jones on as a guest. Love you, Seth!
In costume, just randomly throughout the year.
As a guest, but unknown to Seth, he just turns up occasionally
Listen, how can you name your child Markwayne and think he's going to be taken seriously?
I know!! Several serial killers have middle name Wayne. Maybe parents were aware and used both as first names? 🤣
That union guy is amazing. Don't f**k with unions! It's quite hypocritical coming from some rich guy who talks crap about paychecks and an "honest day's work". That's just a load of bull.
The secondary definition of prostitution applies here. An unworthy use of one’s talents for the sake of personal or financial gain.
