What this episode covers

Here is the transcript from the audio file provided for Hour 3 of The Tara Show, featuring host Tara, co-host Lee Rogers, and audio clips from guest commentators: Segment 1 Tara: Simple question. CNBC. Senator—US Senator Lisa Blunt, who is defending the Democratic Socialists of America. She's on CNBC trying to assure them, "No, no, it's great." Okay, if—if you're going to defend socialism that's really communism, you're going to do an internet search to figure out what it is you're defending, what—what you're welcoming into your party? Basic internet search. Nah. Let's just try it and see if we like it. Here's US Senator Lisa Blunt—couple days ago on—Lisa Blunt Rochester, who honestly you'll think she smoked a blunt when you hear this. Lee Rogers: (Laughs) Oh gosh, there's a good one. Tara: Asked a simple question about socialism on CNBC: "Hey, can you just give us one example where it's worked?" CNBC Interviewer (Audio Clip): Where has socialism ever worked, Senator? Sen. Lisa Blunt Rochester (Audio Clip): Is that another question or is that for the next interview? CNBC Interviewer (Audio Clip): That's a—that's—oh yeah, that's definitely for you. Uh, you said fist—fist doesn't work everywhere. I just want to know one place where socialism has—has been—been beneficial. Sen. Lisa Blunt Rochester (Audio Clip): Well, when you have me—when you have me come back on, we can talk about all the races across the country... CNBC Interviewer (Audio Clip): Get your—get your answer ready, okay? Tara: She can't answer the question. Lee Rogers: No. No, she didn't even tap dance around it, she just like—(laughs). Very blunt reply. Tara: "I don't know, but I just want to try it." Yeah. So these people are doing an exceptional job, I will say, and we are doing a poor job of defining them. They're doing a great job of defining themselves as, "Well, you know, we're democratic socialists." Communism. It's not really that big of a deal, it's, you know... "Well, like, you know, what do you support?" "Well, you know, we—we're for the working class." Which always gets poorer under communism and socialism. Always. Lee Rogers: Yeah. Tara: Yeah, them. Who gets richer? Well, the party. Lee Rogers: Yeah. Tara: Every time. I've got a listener who owns a winery, and he was a communist in college. And I love his story. It's just thrilling the way he tells it. He went down to—he left college, went down to Guatemala because he wanted to help the Marxist guerrillas down there. They'd just taken over. And they had taken over the big banana plantations that the wealthy owned. And they were running them for the people. At least that's how it was supposed to be. So he was there, he was an armed revolutionary. He was helping them keep power. Didn't take him too long down there to realize, "Wait a minute. You guys aren't doing what you said you were going to do. You're—you're not sharing, you know, any of the gains from these plantations. All that had happened was members of the party had seized them, moved in, and were living like kings." He's like, "No, that's not why I came down here. This is—no." And—and the workers were even poorer than they had been before. Do you know what he did? He moved back to America, changed his registration to Republican, and voted for Ronald Reagan. Lee Rogers: There you go. One of my favorites. Tara: Been a business owner for a lot of his lifetime. I love his story. I should have him on—I've been meaning to have him on the air to talk about it for a long time. But he was shocked when he saw how it worked. Yeah, when you look at communism and socialism, it's just a system—a theft system for seizing the wealth of those who've earned it so that those who are high-ranking members of the party can keep it. How is that done? Well, through violence. Which brings us back to these DSA-endorsed candidates, Lee. Lee Rogers: Mm-hmm. Tara: Who pass themselves off as, "Just trying to help the working man, you know. We—we ...
