| 0:00.0 | Welcome, everybody. |
| 0:08.3 | We start today with a Trump voter who has been fired by Donald Trump and Elon Musk's |
| 0:15.7 | Doge. |
| 0:16.9 | And it's really a cautionary tale about when the theoretical becomes reality. |
| 0:24.8 | We talked a couple of weeks ago about a man who voted for Trump and then his wife was |
| 0:30.5 | deported. |
