Mary Miller White Life Gaffe and Ejaculation Regulation
Republican candidate Mary Miller is highlighted for a "Freudian slip" where she thanked Donald Trump for a victory for "white life" instead of "right to life." This is followed by a satirical look at a protest chant calling for the regulation of ejaculation as a response to abortion restrictions.
Theresa May Brexit Slip, "On Behalf of the EU"
During a session in Parliament, Prime Minister Theresa May appeared to make a Freudian slip, stating she negotiated the Brexit deal "on behalf of the European Union" before correcting herself. This comment has been seized upon by critics who believe her withdrawal agreement favors EU interests over British sovereignty. The incident is cited as an example of the "truth coming out" through accidental verbal errors.
Paul Ryan's Freudian Slip and Trump's Teleprompter Style
Speaker of the House Paul Ryan made a Freudian slip by saying "preventing" instead of "presenting" the President. While Trump's teleprompter-heavy delivery was criticized as less engaging than his rally style, snap polls from CNN and CBS showed over 70% of viewers approved of the speech.
Peter King and John Brennan's Melting Plot Slip
Congressman Peter King calls for a suspension of the refugee program until 100% vetting can be guaranteed. Meanwhile, CIA Director John Brennan makes a notable Freudian slip, twice referring to the US as a "melting plot" instead of a "melting pot."
Ask Adam, Rachel Maddow Verbal Slips, Country Music Infomercial
In a segment titled "Ask Adam," the hosts analyze verbal slips in media clips. They highlight Rachel Maddow appearing to say "new tails" instead of "new details" and a country music infomercial where the announcer seemingly says "newest tits" instead of "newest hits." The segment is played for comedic effect, focusing on the lack of editing in pre-recorded broadcasts.
Recent broadcast errors by MSNBC hosts Ed Schultz and Chris Matthews are highlighted. Schultz is caught in a Freudian slip regarding flight attendants, while Matthews is heard admitting he does not want to be "fair" in his commentary. These clips are presented as evidence of the lack of professionalism in mainstream cable news.
Presidential Gaffes, Janitor vs. Jew Freudian Slip
President Obama's speech to the Black Congressional Caucus is analyzed for a potential Freudian slip where he appeared to say "Jew" instead of "janitor" when discussing tax rates for billionaires. The hosts speculate on the President's mental state and the influence of teleprompters.
A video clip of Donald Rumsfeld is presented where he refers to the plane in Pennsylvania being "shot down." Truthers point to this as a Freudian slip that contradicts the official narrative of a passenger revolt on Flight 93. The discussion also highlights the lack of physical debris at the crash site and the suspicious recovery of a hijacker's passport.
