And so we are in a 9 00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:22,880 Speaker 1: state of emergency. 10 00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:26,599 Speaker 2: Okay, White supremacist violence, it has always have been the 11 00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:29,360 Speaker 2: number one threat to our society. But I'm also very 12 00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:31,520 Speaker 2: proud that my wife was white. 13 00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:34,480 Speaker 1: The practice club bitches suris running. 14 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:38,520 Speaker 2: Please tell me why was I your Donkey of the day, Well, 15 00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:41,479 Speaker 2: Tommy Lauren Donkey of the Day from Monday, July fifteenth 16 00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:44,479 Speaker 2: goes to the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, 17 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:48,040 Speaker 2: Mike Johnson, as well as United States Senator from Ohio JD. 18 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:48,440 Speaker 1: Vans. 19 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 2: First and foremost, before we continue, let me state the 20 00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:53,400 Speaker 2: obvious and say, regardless of what you feel about a 21 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:55,000 Speaker 2: person's politics. 22 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,640 Speaker 1: Violence is never the answer. It's that simple. 23 00:00:57,840 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 2: If you don't like a candidate or an elected official, 24 00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 2: you should atempt to take them out with your votes, 25 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,280 Speaker 2: not violence. If you think otherwise, If you think violence 26 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,080 Speaker 2: is indeed the answer. Just do a simple exercise and 27 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 2: ask yourself if this was a candidate or elected official 28 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:14,360 Speaker 2: that you actually voted for and supported, and they got 29 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 2: shot at someone attempted to take their life, what would 30 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,319 Speaker 2: your reaction to that be. When we discuss what happened 31 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:23,759 Speaker 2: to Donald Trump, I believe that discussion, like most discussions 32 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 2: in America, is multi layered. But first and foremost, we 33 00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 2: should talk about the issue of political violence, and we 34 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 2: should denounce it and state quite plainly that we have 35 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:35,039 Speaker 2: no place for it in America period. And I'm not 36 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 2: saying that to be politically correct. I'm saying that because 37 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:40,319 Speaker 2: that's how I truly feel. Now back to the donkeys 38 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 2: at hand. Mike Johnson and sented a JD. Advance from Ohio. First, 39 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,040 Speaker 2: let me read this tweet that JD Vance posted on 40 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 2: Saturday at eight twenty pm, just a couple of hours 41 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 2: after the assassination attempt for Trump occurred. He posted today 42 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 2: is not just some isolated incident. The central premise of 43 00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 2: the Biden campaign is that President Donald Trump isn't the 44 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 2: or terrrian fascist who must be stopped at all costs. 45 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 2: That rhetoric led directly to President Trump's attempted assassination. 46 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 1: In quote speaker at a house. 47 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 2: Mike Johnson was on NBC's Today Show on Sunday morning, 48 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 2: and he said this in regards to the Trump shooting. 49 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 1: Everyone needs to turn the rhetoric down. 50 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:20,639 Speaker 4: Let's listen as America awakens to a rather surreal morning. 51 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 4: This is a horrific act of political violence that ought 52 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 4: to be roundly condemned. Obviously, we can't go on like 53 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,799 Speaker 4: this as a society. We've got to turn the rhetoric down. 54 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 4: We've got to turn the temperature down in this country. 55 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 4: We need leaders of all parties on both sides to 56 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 4: call that out and make sure that happens so that 57 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 4: we can go forward and maintain our free society that 58 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 4: we all are blessed to have. 59 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,240 Speaker 1: Now, I've been observing and just listening all weekend. 60 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 2: You know, I'm not a person who rushes dispilled the 61 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 2: first thing that comes to mind on social media. I've 62 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 2: just been taking it all in, and I want to 63 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 2: say to Mike Johnson and jd Evans that you can't 64 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:57,400 Speaker 2: honestly have a conversation about dangerous rhetoric that leads the 65 00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 2: political violence without discussing the dangers rhetoric that has come 66 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 2: out of President Donald Trump's mouth and his social media. 67 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 2: Mike Johnson said, everyone needs to turn the rhetoric down. 68 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,359 Speaker 2: The question I would ask Mike Johnson is who is 69 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 2: everyone for him and JD Vance to make comments like 70 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 2: that and not acknowledge the countless times Donald Trump has 71 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 2: said things that have led to violence or could lead 72 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 2: the violence. It's disingenuous and it's them playing campaign games. 73 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 2: It's them politicizing this situation because of course it is 74 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 2: a presidential election year. They, like many politicians, Republicans and Democrats, 75 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 2: are using this as an opportunity to score points on 76 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 2: the opposition. Real leaders would be using this as an 77 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 2: opportunity to actually bring people together. Instead, you both are 78 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 2: causing more division. You are causing more people, in this 79 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 2: case Democrats to be targets. Once again, you cannot make 80 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 2: any statements about dangerous rhetoric that leads the political violence 81 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 2: and division without acknowledging the words that have come from 82 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 2: Donald Trump's mouth and his social media. There has been 83 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 2: a real un serious attitude in regards the political violence 84 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 2: in this country. When a nut ass follow up of 85 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 2: Donald Trump came to Nancy Pelosi's house and attacked her 86 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 2: with a hammer. 87 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: Trump made fun of it. 88 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 5: And we'll stand up the crazy Nancy Pelosi who ruined 89 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 5: San Francisco. How's her husband doing? By the way, anybody now? 90 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,360 Speaker 5: And she's against building a wall on our border, even 91 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 5: though she has a wall around her house, which obviously 92 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:24,679 Speaker 5: didn't do a very good job. 93 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 2: Remember when Trump posted pictures of Biden looking like he's 94 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 2: bound and hog tied on his social media. Donald Trump, 95 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 2: in an attempt to overthrow the results of the twenty 96 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 2: twenty election, told his followers to fight, and that led 97 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 2: to an attempt to cool his country, and some of 98 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,359 Speaker 2: his followers did bring guns and ammunition to DC for 99 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:41,919 Speaker 2: that purpose. 100 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:46,160 Speaker 1: They did storm the capitol. They were chanting to hang Mike. 101 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 2: Pince because he wouldn't alter the election results. That happened, 102 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 2: and it happened because of Donald Trump. I'm not even 103 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 2: gonna go down in the rabbit hole. How many times 104 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 2: Donald Trump is incited political violence or co signed political violence, 105 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 2: are suggested political violence? I'll give you couple that come 106 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 2: to mind. You remember when the now governor of Montana 107 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:05,560 Speaker 2: I believe it was Montana, he was running for Congress 108 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 2: and he body slammed the reporter and got charged with assault, 109 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,840 Speaker 2: and Donald Trump said he is my type. Is that 110 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 2: not encouraging violence? You remember when Donald Trump suggested that, 111 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,720 Speaker 2: you know, Second Amendment advocates assassinate Hillary Clinton. 112 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 6: Hillary wants to abolish, essentially abolish the Second Amendment, by 113 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 6: the way, and if she gets to pick, if she 114 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:29,359 Speaker 6: gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks. 115 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 6: Although the Second Amendment people, maybe there is I don't know, but. 116 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 2: Come on, so, Mike Johnson and JD Vance, please don't 117 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 2: act like Donald Trump is not solely responsible for creating 118 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 2: this environment of political violence, that he's not even safe. 119 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 2: From about twelve days ago, Kevin Roberts, the president of 120 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,480 Speaker 2: the pro Trump think tank the Heritage Foundation, said this. 121 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:53,719 Speaker 7: In spite of all this nonsense from the left, we 122 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 7: are going to win. We're in the process of taking 123 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,599 Speaker 7: this country back, and we are in the process of 124 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 7: the Second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless if the 125 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 7: left allows it to be. 126 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:06,359 Speaker 1: It will be bloodless if the left allows it to be. 127 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 2: Mike Johnson and JD Vance, could that kind of rhetoric 128 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:10,480 Speaker 2: lead to political violence? 129 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:11,719 Speaker 1: If somebody was at. 130 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,920 Speaker 2: Home right reading Project twenty twenty five, which is put 131 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 2: together by the Heritage Foundation, and heard Mike Johnson say 132 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 2: that don't you think that could lead to some type 133 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 2: of political violence. 134 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 1: Why aren't you denouncing all that type of rhetoric? 135 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 2: Okay, then and now, how could you in this moment 136 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 2: immediately point the finger to Democrats? And how come more 137 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 2: to media hasn't been saying this all weekend? I understand 138 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 2: sadly there was an assassination attempt on the former president 139 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 2: when in a moment like this, we can't worry about, 140 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:40,480 Speaker 2: you know, striking the right tone. 141 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: We have to worry about telling the truth. Now, Mike 142 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 1: Johnson and JD. 143 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 2: Vance both say that Donald Trump has been vilified, and 144 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 2: you know, calling him a threat to democracy was one 145 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 2: of the things that led to this. I saw Mike 146 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 2: Johnson again on Anderson Cooper, and Anderson rightfully pointed out 147 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 2: that Trump has said that about Joe Biden as well. 148 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 4: Let's listen, it's an objective truth that Donald Trump is 149 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:04,159 Speaker 4: probably the most persecuted and attacked political figure in history, 150 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 4: certainly among presidents, maybe at least since Abraham Lincoln Civil 151 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 4: War era. And that takes a toll. I mean when 152 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 4: my colleagues go out Democrat colleagues and say democracy will end, 153 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 4: the Republic will be in an emergency stage if Donald 154 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 4: Trump wins for president. It's just not true. It's another election. 155 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 4: And when they say that kind of rhetoric and they 156 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 4: heat it up like that, there are people out there 157 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 4: that take these things to heart and they act upon them. 158 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 4: Politicians are not responsible for that, but we do have 159 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 4: a responsibility to be responsible. 160 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 3: I do want to point out the former president himself 161 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:41,280 Speaker 3: has also used that kind of rhetoric. He said on 162 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 3: June twenty seventh, Joe Biden is a threat to democracy, 163 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,280 Speaker 3: a threat to the survival in existence of our country itself. 164 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 3: That's certainly the same kind of language. 165 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 1: You're talking about. 166 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 4: Listen, everybody is prone to overstatement. Okay, I mean a 167 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 4: few days ago, earlier this week, I mean, Joe Biden 168 00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 4: actually said we need to put Donald Trump in the bullside. 169 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 4: I mean right. I don't think either of those men 170 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 4: meant to imply anything beyond just rhetoric. But the point 171 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 4: is the rhetoric has consequences. 172 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:14,000 Speaker 2: Once again, you cannot talk about rhetoric without talking about 173 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 2: the things that Donald Trump has pewed out of his 174 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 2: mouth and on social media, people like myself and others 175 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 2: called Donald Trump a threat to democracy because he has 176 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 2: done things that have threatened democracy. 177 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: I could argue that. 178 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 2: In regard to the three judges he put on the 179 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 2: Supreme Court, democracy has done, but you all won't realize 180 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 2: that until November when the presidential election comes. But I'll 181 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 2: get back to that for all you people who may 182 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 2: think saying Donald Trump is the threat to democracy is 183 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 2: just noise. Well, when someone says we should terminate the 184 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 2: constitution to overthrow the results of an election, that's a 185 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 2: threat to democracy. 186 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 1: When someone tells people. 187 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 2: To fight and they stormed the Capitol to overthrow the 188 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 2: results of an election, that's a threat to democracy. Trump 189 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 2: put three judges on the now illegitimate corrupt institution that 190 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 2: is the Supreme Court, and they are absolutely threatening our democracy. 191 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,600 Speaker 2: They granted him presidential immunity for crimes because he asked. 192 00:08:57,720 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 2: That has nothing to do with the Constitution. Look up, 193 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 2: it's the Chevron ruling the Supreme Court dead. The Supreme 194 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:04,959 Speaker 2: Court did. It's basically saying they can make up stuff 195 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 2: based on their own interpretations. That's one of the biggest 196 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:09,560 Speaker 2: f us to the Constitution. I've ever witnessed, there are 197 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 2: abolishing constitutional rights like Roe v. 198 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 1: Wade. 199 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,680 Speaker 2: They made it to where elected officials can take bribes. 200 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 2: Donald Trump and Republicans have put together a corrupt Supreme 201 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 2: Court that literally doesn't have to care what voters want. 202 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 2: They have set up a system where either Republicans win 203 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 2: elections or elections do not matter. Is that not a 204 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:29,840 Speaker 2: threat to democracy? Wait until November now? Personally, I don't 205 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,840 Speaker 2: believe Biden can beat Trump, especially after Saturday. But if 206 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 2: he does, when Donald Trump contests the results of the election, 207 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 2: because he will if he loses. In light of all 208 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,080 Speaker 2: the Supreme Court's recent rulings, do we really believe they 209 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 2: aren't gonna side with him? Is that when some will 210 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 2: finally believe he is the threat to democracy? Are we 211 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 2: going to just believe him when he says the election 212 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 2: was rigged? Only difference is this time when he says 213 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 2: the election is rigged, the Supreme Court is going to 214 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 2: side with him, and it will be a coup by court. 215 00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:58,959 Speaker 2: And of course it will be people in this country 216 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 2: who will believe him if loses and says the election 217 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,320 Speaker 2: is rigged because people believe what they want. That's why 218 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 2: some folks want to believe his attempted assassination was staged. 219 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 2: Nobody believes the truth in this country anymore, and that 220 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 2: is another problem in America. Depending on what side you 221 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 2: stand on, that's what you believe. Nobody thinks anything is 222 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 2: real unless it confirms what they already thought. That's why 223 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 2: folks immediately rushed to say Donald Trump's assassination attempt was staged. 224 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 2: Why what's the reason to spread that narrative? What happened 225 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,439 Speaker 2: on Saturday was very real and it should be a 226 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 2: teachable moment for us all because this is what happens 227 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,599 Speaker 2: when you have people in positions of power spreading the 228 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 2: kind of dangerous rhetoric that Donald Trump has been spreading 229 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:41,720 Speaker 2: since twenty sixteen. 230 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 1: No one should shaped, No one should say this is staged. 231 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 2: Saying it is staged is exactly why we can't fix 232 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,959 Speaker 2: the problem, because we're not acknowledging the truth. What happened 233 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 2: to Donald Trump is very real. Political violence is very 234 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 2: very real, and it's only gonna get worse, especially when 235 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,439 Speaker 2: you have people like JD. Vance and House Speaker Mike 236 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,840 Speaker 2: Johnson blaming Democrats when we don't even know the shooter's 237 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:07,320 Speaker 2: motives yet. Okay, the truth is President Donald Trump has 238 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:10,960 Speaker 2: created an environment of political violence that not even he 239 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:12,560 Speaker 2: is safe from. 240 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 1: So it's damn short not safe for anyone else. 241 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 2: It is my hope that at the Republican National Convention, 242 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:21,559 Speaker 2: Republicans use this opportunity to de escalate and not escalate, 243 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 2: because if they go out there and escalate, they have 244 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 2: to know they are continuing to make things unsafe for 245 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 2: everyone including them. Trump stood up after getting shot, fisting 246 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 2: the air, blood on his face, and just like on 247 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 2: January sixth, he told his supporters to fight. Fight who. 248 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 2: We don't even know why this happened to you. Everyone's 249 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 2: just speculating. Everyone got their own conspiracy theories, their own ideas. 250 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 2: You can't just tell folks to fight. What we all 251 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 2: need to learn from What we all need to learn 252 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 2: from this is that history now shows us that folks 253 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 2: are willing to fight and kill for whatever they believe in, 254 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 2: whether it's storm in the Capitol, are shooting at the president. 255 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,960 Speaker 2: It seems like violence is inevitable. The stage has already 256 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 2: been set. 257 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 1: How far goals depends on us, the American people. 258 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:06,720 Speaker 2: We have to decide what kind of republic we want 259 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:08,959 Speaker 2: to live in, and we need to decide that now. 260 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:10,319 Speaker 1: Sadly, though, when I. 261 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 2: See and hear statements from Senator jd Vance and House 262 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 2: Speaker Mike Johnson statements that continue to divide us and 263 00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 2: make people unnecessary targets, I fear it may be too late. 264 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 2: But let's not forget the moral of this story. We 265 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 2: are all adults in this country, Okay, big boys, big girls. 266 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 2: We can condemn political violence and what happened to Trump 267 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 2: on Saturday night and also talk about the dangerous rhetoric 268 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:32,319 Speaker 2: that Donald Trump. 269 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 1: Has spewed that got us here. 270 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 2: Please let rimy MA give senat the jd Vance and 271 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:38,959 Speaker 2: House Speaker Mike Johnson the biggest he hull. 272 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:43,440 Speaker 1: Hee ha he ha, you stupid mother?
