1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:04,600
Speaker 1: It is Monday, November twenty fourth. This is the morning

2
00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:10,080
Speaker 1: it's Thanksgiving week here in America. One thing that none

3
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:13,520
Speaker 1: of us should be thankful for is the collapse of

4
00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:19,280
Speaker 1: any possible information coming out of a Sunday morning show.

5
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:24,360
Speaker 1: It used to be that very talented journalists would challenge

6
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:29,480
Speaker 1: very powerful people with facts and information, and they would

7
00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:34,239
Speaker 1: do so on behalf of their viewers, the American citizen.

8
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:38,600
Speaker 1: The idea is that in a democracy, the citizen has

9
00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:41,960
Speaker 1: to be informed, They have to have some stakes in

10
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 1: the game. The Sunday morning shows have become ritualized reality

11
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:51,519
Speaker 1: show theater. It is the beginning of a week of

12
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:58,000
Speaker 1: farce and misinformation and nonsense. Let's start with the Secretary

13
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:03,960
Speaker 1: of Agriculture, some Washington, DC maga RedHat explaining to the

14
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 1: American farmer that things are okay. Is offset by some statistics,

15
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 1: including one which will I'll rest my case on one

16
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:18,479
Speaker 1: thing that's happened during the Trump presidency is the American

17
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 1: farmer has leapt to the front of the pack again,

18
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:28,039
Speaker 1: leading the way in suicides. Suicide is a disease of

19
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 1: despair and hopelessness, and right now in America, millions of

20
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 1: people are discussing suicide with the chatbot. That is the

21
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 1: sickness that has come to our land by the power

22
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 1: of the hedge funds, the tech oligarchs, and the media

23
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 1: lords like Larry Ellison and David Allison, who want to

24
00:01:54,480 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 1: control all of the avenues of information. I wonder why

25
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 1: at any rate, here is one of the great clowns

26
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 1: of the Trump era, a Sunday Show stalwart Howard Lutnik.

27
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:13,639
Speaker 2: Sure, what is the backup plan should the Supreme Court

28
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 2: rule against you?

29
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,359
Speaker 3: Well, we are going to win the case. It's pretty clear.

30
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,080
Speaker 3: I was. I sat in the Supreme Court. We're going

31
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 3: to win the case.

32
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 4: But the fact is the president has all sorts of

33
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 4: policies and tools throughout.

34
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 3: He's got tariff rules.

35
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 4: Of two thirty two in my department, he's got three

36
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 4: on one, he's got three thirty eight, he's got tariffs

37
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 4: are going to be a part of this administration's national

38
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,800
Speaker 4: security and national economic protection of the American people.

39
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 3: But we are going to win the case. So you

40
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 3: can worry about.

41
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 4: The backup plan, but you're going to watch the Supreme

42
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 4: Court back this president because this president has proven that

43
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 4: he can protect America and AIPA is protecting America. So

44
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 4: we are going to win this case. You heard it

45
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,919
Speaker 4: from me. I feel confident. I sat through the case.

46
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:02,919
Speaker 4: We're going to win.

47
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:10,080
Speaker 1: This creton has no credibility whatsoever. The decision to put

48
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 1: him on and allow somebody you know is lying and

49
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 1: is a clown to misinform your audience is an act

50
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 1: of corruption, and yet it never stops at any rate.

51
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 1: There is no person, no bigger clown, no more obvious fool,

52
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 1: maybe in the entire administration than Lutnik who insists the

53
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 1: tariffs that are breaking the back of the American family,

54
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:45,640
Speaker 1: breaking the back of the American worker, breaking the back

55
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 1: of the American economy, are in fact working and good

56
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 1: for you.

57
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 2: Let's watch what's your expectation, Secretary in terms of a

58
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 2: second reconciliation bill or a standalone two thousand dollars check

59
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 2: program to go out.

60
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 4: Look, the tariffs are an American policy. The President wants

61
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:10,960
Speaker 4: the American people to understand how great tariffs are for them.

62
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 4: And so one of the ways to prove to the

63
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 4: American people how great tariffs are is to have them

64
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:20,919
Speaker 4: share in a part of one year's income from these tariffs.

65
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 4: And that's two thousand dollars ahead, as he said, for

66
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 4: people who need the money. You know where He's going

67
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 4: to constrain it to people who need the money. And

68
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 4: that's exciting. So the President's got that on his desk.

69
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 4: I know that's something he wants to achieve, and his

70
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,280
Speaker 4: legislative team will figure out the best way to do it.

71
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:38,719
Speaker 4: But what he's trying to do is make sure people

72
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 4: in America understand that tariffs are their policy. It's to

73
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 4: make America stronger and they can also benefit their pocketbook,

74
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 4: and that is coming next year from the President.

75
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:55,919
Speaker 1: The great talent of the Trump administration comes at communicating

76
00:04:56,480 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 1: false outrage over invented in while committing the acts they

77
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:09,840
Speaker 1: decry over and over and over again. The most corrupt

78
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 1: administration in history coming into Thanksgiving, has an approval rating

79
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 1: in the thirties, disapproval ratings in the sixties. Is finally

80
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 1: managing to do something that a lot of us thought

81
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:29,240
Speaker 1: was impossible, which is to see Donald unite the country.

82
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:33,359
Speaker 1: He's doing it, of course, around the only thing he

83
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 1: could possibly unite anybody around, which is despising him and

84
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:41,919
Speaker 1: his treachery and his dishonesty.

85
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 5: What is appeasement?

86
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:48,919
Speaker 1: It is a philosophy that holds, if I feed the

87
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:54,040
Speaker 1: crocodile first, he'll eat me last. The problem with the

88
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:58,679
Speaker 1: philosophy is, in the end, looking ahead to what fate

89
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 1: has in store, the best outcome is to be the

90
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 1: last eaten by a giant reptile, which is not a

91
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 1: good result now. Marjorie Taylor Green is an exquisite example

92
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:17,480
Speaker 1: of a person whose ignorance was reinforced by the insanity

93
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:24,719
Speaker 1: that's curated behind the imprisonment of the algorithmic wall, erected

94
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:30,920
Speaker 1: by this generation's most dangerous drug pushers, America's tech oligors,

95
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 1: feasting on conspiracy, eating a stew of insanity. Marjorie Taylor

96
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 1: Green was trained to become a twenty first century political leader,

97
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 1: not by a party, but by the American culture.

98
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,360
Speaker 5: And the American culture is insane.

99
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 1: And she went there and became schooled in the ways

100
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:58,159
Speaker 1: of Washington in power and politics, and saw all around

101
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:04,400
Speaker 1: her fraudulents. A legitimately crazy person. In the end, couldn't

102
00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 1: believe that she was part of something so crazy that

103
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 1: it would cover up on behalf of the leader she

104
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 1: worshiped like a god, his complicity, his partnership, his friendship

105
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 1: with the most notorious child sex trafficker and criminal of

106
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 1: the twenty first century.

107
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 5: And so that was the straw that broke the proverbial

108
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 5: camel's back.

109
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 1: A faithful sycophant suddenly called the trader because she wouldn't

110
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 1: get in line with the pedophile who is the leader's friend.

111
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 1: Now she has some explaining to do about why she

112
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 1: ran around for so long with Matt Gates properly and

113
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 1: clearly and credibly accused, well sourced reporting that makes clear

114
00:07:56,240 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 1: he had sex with a seventeen year old child McDonald's

115
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 1: worker who needed a hand up when she was leaning

116
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 1: out that McDonald's window, and instead Congressman Gates gave her

117
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 1: ecstasy and four hundred dollars so we could.

118
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 5: Sleep with her.

119
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 1: Megan Kelly doesn't understand the concept, but I'm sure most

120
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 1: of you do. Here's the deal about all of these

121
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 1: wretched people, Carolyn Levitt, Jared Kushner.

122
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 5: The list goes on.

123
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 1: A great nation of three hundred and fifty million souls

124
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:31,119
Speaker 1: is under siege by about one hundred villains who hold

125
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 1: political power because we let them get it, and now

126
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 1: we have to take it away and be thankful that

127
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:41,439
Speaker 1: in real life, outside of the mirage, outside of the illusion,

128
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 1: outside of the sick play which we have all become

129
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:47,560
Speaker 1: yoked actors.

130
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 5: In, we have the power.

131
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 1: Not Donald Trump in his imagination, in his fiction, in

132
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 1: his theater, he is king of the world.

133
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 5: And dictator of America.

134
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 1: But in real life he is the lee of a

135
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:09,200
Speaker 1: despised and failing political novelty act, a great grotesquery, a

136
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 1: sewer act that rose to the top, a great desecration,

137
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 1: like a wave that swept over the country, is starting

138
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 1: to recede. It's going to leave an awful mess, but

139
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:23,199
Speaker 1: it will also leave.

140
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 5: Behind an important lesson.

141
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 1: From that lesson, and out of that mess can come

142
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 1: better days if we remember some important principles. Government in

143
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:40,040
Speaker 1: America is about securing the blessings of liberty, and the

144
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 1: purpose of life in our free country is about the

145
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:49,080
Speaker 1: pursuit of happiness, not richest, not power, but happiness of

146
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,600
Speaker 1: the common man and woman, who ought not to become

147
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 1: serfs of the world's richest men and women, whose insatiability

148
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:03,119
Speaker 1: and rapaciousness, combined with Trump's malice and corruption, has threatened

149
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 1: to drown the American experiment in a pit of venom

150
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 1: and a sea of filth into that all of us

151
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:18,720
Speaker 1: patriots must say no, not on our watch, not in

152
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:22,600
Speaker 1: this time, not in our country. We oppose it, we

153
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 1: descend from it, and we will break it in half

154
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 1: before this struggle is over.

155
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 5: I'm Steve Schmidt. This is the warning.
