00:25hostage situation even as a hostage taker awesome ma'am no word yet from the
00:29secretary of defense about joining him at the Marine base no nothing from
00:33Maddox but he knows I've got a bigger role in the White House now which means
00:36I've got a bigger dick which means he can suck it I'm so happy about that
00:40how's my speech coming oh one minor change just one word really considered
00:44response is now gonna be robust response robust damn that's good yeah I mean it's
00:50subtle enough to seem loyal to POTUS that's gonna electrify DC that's my AC
00:55DC is a good word and you don't hear it often like I'm just yeah you know what
01:00it's what you want to hear in the hostage crisis robust not bump just Mike
01:05what do you think what do you think about robust bust yeah I like it makes
01:09me think of wine it's actually how I like my reds you like your red through a
01:13bendy straw too right Mike you got doing it on you Mike sue good luck at the
01:18hearing remember sue be dull I will are you here for a meeting I'm not
01:24expecting anyone sue I'm your fill-in Cliff hey I'm Gary I'm your neighbor
01:29remember take care of Selene okay VP stands for very precious okay okay
01:37Cliff yes this is the vehicle pedia is everything you'll ever need to know hope
01:44it comes with Cliff notes that was a play on my name my name is Cliff don't
01:51do jokes Cliff I don't have a sense of humor and neither should you good
01:59morning how do you make two perfectly pleasant words so irritating and here he
02:03is the man who can't take a leak without pulling his balls bring me my Cerise
02:08colored binder Jonah Cerise yes sir VP's base visit today
02:14Secretary of Defense Maddox is living up to his name he's mad as an ox I'm sure I
02:19can break up any catfights when I get there the VEAPS more concerned with the
02:23hostage situation yeah I was talking to POTUS last night he had a pro-strike
02:27hawk boner the size of Jonah and then you talked to him about it this morning
02:32and he suddenly totally against the operation all I do is provide POTUS with
02:37the polls cold numbers god I hate numbers I mean there's cultures don't
02:41even have any numbers and they do just fine well Ben it seems like you're ill
02:45suited for your job and you should resign Ben's breakdown aside the VP
02:49feels we need a quick military strike here yeah precise and surgical like your
02:53lobotomy can't be Cerise binders there no that's cherry red Cerise I'm sorry
03:00sir I must have a very specific form of colorblindness I cook these noodles
03:05every day oh the noodle analogy you guys are gonna love this I will be they need
03:14to be heated at 800 watts for three minutes and 35 seconds any more and
03:18they'll dry out any less and they will be flaccid and damp like a lady's hair
03:23in the ring why are we talking about noodles no let me rephrase that why the
03:27fuck are we talking about noodles I'll tell you why hostage crisis noodles same
03:32principle both require precision timing neither should be rushed inaction only
03:37becomes intenable when more than 65% of Americans support intervention even with
03:41casualties so you'd like me to tell the vice president we do nothing until then
03:46waiting is not doing nothing I choose to wait for my noodles even though my
03:51salivary glands are crying out to me like newly hatched birds but they will
03:56thank me because I waited until well you just timed out that whole shit analogy
04:07for your little ding that is fucking pathetic
04:16hey we heard anything from Maddox he's spitting bullets cuz I'm showing up at
04:21the base nothing really not it oh it's eerie right it is airy
04:27we're in there I guess okay thanks probably got his head stuck in her ass

05:13Marines like to be called devil dogs you are a bunch of devil dogs that's what I

07:01been saying keep it dull which incidentally is also don't I'd like to
07:08first of all thank the vice president for waiving executive privilege in the
07:13interest of transparency and allowing miss Wilson to join us today you think
07:20she's nervous why would she be nervous the only people watching this are you
07:25and some guy in the hospital with a locked-in syndrome if I may I'd like to
07:29begin with percentages of your office budget dedicated to international and
07:34domestic transportation my pulse is racing sir here you are madam vice
07:38president ensure you keep your finger straight and off the trigger all right
07:41this is fun if you don't mind my saying ma'am there speaketh a civilian all
07:47right there speaketh a prick
07:59I'm sorry these fellas have heard a lot worse than that man tremendous shot by
08:06the way really oh how about that fastest gun in the West Wing
08:11you see that yes ma'am how about it as you know we have a very special guest
08:16here today it would have been nice to have been consulted about your speech
08:20man I could have given you some advice I know what I'm doing George with this
08:25hostage situation I don't think you have the intelligence as in Intel of
08:33course ma'am are you serious are you actually questioning my qualifications
08:38George well there are just some security issues with the four countries that
08:44neighbor Uzbekistan you know zip or is it five or is it six or is it seven you
08:56don't know do you it's fine so first please welcome the Secretary of Defense
09:05George Maddox now I'd like to work on breaking down the vice president's
09:24official versus political duties if we can sir I was told that I'd be asked
09:30questions about efficiency so far you've barely asked me any your
09:35efficiency hearing isn't very efficient you want to question what can you tell
09:40me about this visit to the Marine base at Quantico the government sending two
09:44different motorcades the defense secretaries and the VPs to the same
09:49location that doesn't seem very efficient oh shit a shark this is why I
09:53told her to be so do you not have measures in place to prevent this kind
09:59of wasteful duplication of government resources sir we have a system that I
10:03believe to be robust robust robust and you don't think it's a sign that your
10:12office is poorly managed our management team is robust okay now she just sounds
10:21mentally ill sir have somewhere you're supposed to be I'm working remotely I'm
10:27guessing you have one of those word-a-day calendars and I know what
10:30the word for today is it's robust would you like to give me a definition as well
10:36well I'm guessing that you think you have a sense of humor mr. Hessler but
10:42you are wrong about as you are about the calendar that is my definition of robust
10:48my speech is a face melter these buzz cuts are gonna flip it's not your
10:52speech my fingerprints are all over that sucker they're sticky and they're on the
10:56back my time to robust and not all over this place no shit we can't what
11:03won't sue she just used robust three times the hearing no she did yeah no no
11:08Selena can't use that now we need another word it's just a synonym for robust
11:12give me something give me a word any word no it's too aggressive we don't
11:16okay

11:54that those who challenge
11:56our freedoms
11:58can expect a robust
12:00response
12:02and there goes the R bomb
12:04I thought we weren't doing robust
12:06I thought we were still inconsiderate
12:08we have the best military
12:10in the world
12:14and we are
12:16not afraid
12:20hey Mike
12:22stick a thermometer up Washington's ass

12:27parting the cheeks
12:31you know robust is my word

12:41no you don't
12:43meet me in my office

12:51no relieved is not the opposite of constipated Mike
12:53hang up the phone dummy
12:55have you seen this yet
12:57what is it
12:59VP sister act
13:01robusting the moves
13:03and there's also
13:05yeah
13:07what in the living fuck is this
13:09it's a word cloud from this morning's DC press
13:11the size of each word
13:13corresponds to its total number of uses
13:15do people not use sentences anymore
13:17well I mean your word
13:19I mean robust is dominating
13:21so you know that's good
13:24it's there too
13:26well where's Selena
13:28oh it
13:30yeah
13:32I just saw it
13:34ha
13:36there it is
13:38look how teeny tiny that is
13:40it's bigger than Collapse
13:42it's teeny tiny because technically you have four names
13:44Vice President Selena Meyer
13:46plus all the nicknames that we don't talk about
13:48I mean
13:50Sue only has one name like
13:52hey Sue
13:54Bigfoot
13:56Sue
13:58yes ma'am
14:00what
14:02you're not fucking Sue
14:04I'm Cliff
14:06I'm filling in for Sue
14:08while she preps for her return appearance on the 6th
14:10she has a return appearance
14:12what does she need an encore for
14:14yeah it's an encore
14:16start popping your popcorn
14:18okay thank you very much
14:21yes it is
14:23all right I put together one card for each senator
14:25and actually ma'am I had some ideas about some opportunities here
14:27I think it would be a good idea
14:29if we focus more on each senator's particular
14:31policy interest rather than
14:33small talk
14:35yeah I don't think that's a bad idea
14:37yeah take the coat
14:39that makes sense to me
14:41oh there's Sue
14:43okay get away from me

29:07feeling ma'am the vice president sometimes has to do bad things to make

29:21he's back up on his sure we'll roll out the ramps
29:29ma'am some of the prosthetic legs they have these days are as good as real
29:34legs I guarantee you they're better than my shitty legs I hate my legs in fact if
