This is Why Iran is Endorsing Democrats + DHS Sec. Markwayne Mullin

Josh Holmes (0:00)

Islamic Revolutionary Guard. I mean, these are the terrorists.

Endorsed Democrats.

Comfortably Smug (0:08)

Thanks for running our members as your candidates. I suppose it's formal for us to now endorse.

Well, there's a couple of things that have happened on the left in this particular cycle, and one is that they care more about Gaza and the Palestinian people than they do about the American people and their constituents that they're seeking the votes to represent.

Michael Duncan (0:25)

It's not crazy that they're rooting for Iran, because if it meant that Donald Trump would lose the 2020 election, they were willing to root for a virus.

Cancer, a life-changing, terrifying diagnosis millions of Americans receive every single year. But thanks to American innovation, patients can fight back and take back control of their lives. Breakthroughs in cancer treatment are delivering for American patients. Therapies that once required long visits to specialized facilities to sit for hours in an infusion chair can be ministered more affordably, quickly, and conveniently in a shot closer to home. But bureaucrats in Washington are threatening to change that. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, quietly proposed a little-known rule called the Fixed Dose Combination Drug Policy. It sounds harmless, but this is a dangerous expansion of Joe Biden's price controls in the Inflation Reduction Act. This policy punishes cancer patients by targeting the faster, less invasive treatments they overwhelmingly prefer with a policy that makes this innovation disappear. There is still time to stop this, but only if you make your voice heard. Tell your senator to stand up for cancer patients by standing up to Washington bureaucrats. Protect the treatments patients prefer and deserve. Make your voice heard at americancommitment.org.

The midterm elections are here. And if DSA Democrats win, they'll push a radical socialist agenda and drown President Trump in endless investigations. We've seen their playbook before. They tried impeaching him. They tried putting him in prison. They've tried everything.

Don't let them win. Because if we lose, they'll undo everything our movement has fought for. I need you to vote early. You can bank your vote and fight back against the left's turnout machine. Go to gopvotes.org right now and find out when you can vote. Making your voice heard is easier than ever. You can get election reminders, look up your polling location and pick a date to vote early.

The only political podcast we're listening to is the Ruthless Podcast.

It's time for our main event.

SPEAKER_5 (3:34)

The Ruthless Podcast.

Josh Holmes (3:36)

Good Thursday to you. Welcome back to the Ruthless Friday program. I'm Josh Holmes, along with comfortably Smug, Michael Duncan and John Ashbrook. Left to right across your radio dial. Thank you for all of you tuned into our special hump day that you'll get from now until the election. And if you haven't hung yourself, welcome to Thursday.

It wasn't exactly an uplifting episode, but we try to tell the truth around here.

John Ashbrook (4:03)

That's right. We always do, because the Ruthless Variety Program is a special show.

Josh Holmes (4:08)

It's exactly right.

John Ashbrook (4:08)

A unique show, heard nowhere else on earth.

Michael Duncan (4:12)

Yeah, we report, you decide. We coined that.

Josh Holmes (4:15)

Yeah, that's exactly right, Michael. That's exactly right. So look, there's a lot of things happening. It's been a while since we've done anything on Iran.

But there's some things that are important. And it intersects with politics and midterms in one special way yesterday. And that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard, I mean, these are the terrorists, endorsed Democrats in the midterms.

John Ashbrook (4:43)

Of course they did.

Comfortably Smug (4:44)

The muzzle endorsed each other, you know? They're returning the favor.

Michael Duncan (4:49)

Always nice to have a good field operation on your side.

Josh Holmes (4:53)

Birds of a feather and such.

John Ashbrook (4:56)

Anyway.

Comfortably Smug (4:56)

Well, thanks for running our members as your candidates. I suppose it's formal for us to now endorse.
