1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:01,160 Speaker 1: One side or the other. 2 00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:03,280 Speaker 2: One side or the other is quite away. 3 00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:05,000 Speaker 3: I don't know. 4 00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:14,040 Speaker 1: I mean, there can be a way of working a way. 5 00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:18,240 Speaker 2: Of living together peacefully, but it's difficult, you know, because 6 00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:22,959 Speaker 2: there are differences on fundamental things that really can't be comproposed. 7 00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:27,120 Speaker 2: You know, you can't be optimized. So it's not like 8 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:28,760 Speaker 2: you're going to split the difference in. 9 00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:31,160 Speaker 1: And that's what I'm saying. 10 00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:36,400 Speaker 4: I think that the solution really is like winning the 11 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:40,120 Speaker 4: moral argument, Like people in this country who believe in 12 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 4: God have got to keep fighting for that to return 13 00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:47,080 Speaker 4: our country to a place of a body nest Oh, 14 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 4: I agree with you. 15 00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 1: I agree with you. The independent judiciary is foundational to 16 00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 1: the survival of America's democracy, and the rule of law 17 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 1: is under siege from an enemy within. And there is 18 00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:06,640 Speaker 1: no enemy with a sharper knife aimed at the heart 19 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 1: of the rule of law in America than Justice Samuel Alito, 20 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:18,040 Speaker 1: a man who is aggrieved and angry and intellectually corrupt 21 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 1: to the corps. He is a political partisan radicalized by 22 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:27,800 Speaker 1: the Maga era. It is Tuesday, June eleventh, twenty twenty four, 23 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:31,199 Speaker 1: one hundred and forty seven days out from the US 24 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 1: presidential election where the last of the votes will be cast. 25 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:41,960 Speaker 1: This is the warning, and I'm Steve Schmidt. Supreme Court 26 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 1: Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel A. Alito have lit the 27 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:51,279 Speaker 1: reputation of the Supreme Court of the United States on fire. 28 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 1: They are judicial arsonists who have betrayed their oath with 29 00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 1: their lack of ethics, with their political extremism, and their 30 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 1: abdication of the concept that judges aren't supposed to take 31 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 1: sides and politics. The magnitude of the scandal at hand 32 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:14,679 Speaker 1: is difficult to overstate. Justice Roberts, whose confirmation I led 33 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 1: like I led Samuel Alito's twenty years ago, talked about 34 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:24,800 Speaker 1: the importance of the rule of law. At his confirmation hearings. 35 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: He mentioned that the Soviet Constitution had all of the 36 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: rights that you could find in the American Constitution, except 37 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,640 Speaker 1: that there was no tradition of a rule of law 38 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:43,920 Speaker 1: in the Soviet Union. Politics was the master of the law, 39 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: and so Soviet Russia was a totalitarian state because absence law, 40 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 1: there is only power. And when there is only power 41 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: absent restraint, there is chaos, there is death, and there 42 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 1: is tyranny. The end dependent judiciary is foundational to the 43 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:08,359 Speaker 1: survival of America's democracy, and the rule of law is 44 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: under siege from an enemy within. And there is no 45 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 1: enemy with a sharper knife aimed at the heart of 46 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: the rule of law in America than Justice Samuel Alito. 47 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:26,360 Speaker 1: A man who is aggrieved and angry and intellectually corrupt 48 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 1: to the core. He is a political partisan radicalized by 49 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 1: the Maga era. He is a man who sees the 50 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 1: world in black and white, US and THEMS, and it's 51 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 1: zero sum. Someone wins and someone loses. Let's listen to 52 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:51,520 Speaker 1: the most remarkable spoken words ever captured on a recording 53 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 1: by a US Supreme Court justice. Of course, these were 54 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 1: recorded by Lauren Windsor, the activist and journalist who went 55 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 1: to the Court Society dinner with a tape recorder on 56 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 1: what she heard that we have heard now is astounding 57 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 1: and deeply, deeply troubling. In order to understand and to 58 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 1: fully comprehend how radical Samuel Alito's comments are, let's set 59 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 1: away point and that is the answer that Chief Justice 60 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 1: Roberts gives to Windsors provocations. Let's start there and let's listen. 61 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 3: Well, I guess, I just I believe that the Founders 62 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 3: were godly, like we're Christians, and I think that we 63 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,920 Speaker 3: live in a Christinations and that Arthur Report should be 64 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:38,840 Speaker 3: guiding us in that. 65 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know that we live in a christianization. 66 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,280 Speaker 2: I know a lot of Jewish and Muslim friends who 67 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:47,280 Speaker 2: would say maybe not. And it's not our job to 68 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 2: do that. 69 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 1: It's our job to decide the cases. Especially can compare 70 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: that now to this one side or the other, one 71 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 1: side or the other is going to live? I don't know. 72 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:08,480 Speaker 1: I mean, there can be a way of working a 73 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 1: way of living. 74 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 2: Together peacefully, but it's difficult, you know, because there are 75 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 2: differences on fundamental things that really can't. 76 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 3: Be compromised, really can't be optimized. 77 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 2: So it's not like you're going to sweat the difference, 78 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 2: you know. 79 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 3: And that's what I'm saying. I just. 80 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 4: I think that the solution really is like winning the 81 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 4: moral argument, Like people in this country who believe in 82 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,599 Speaker 4: God have got to keep fighting for that to return 83 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 4: our country to a place of a godliness. 84 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 1: I agree with you. 85 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 2: I agree with you because we look. 86 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 4: At like the decline of our society, the decline of 87 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,600 Speaker 4: a nuclear family and liberals. 88 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 3: I just feel like I want to see that happen 89 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:56,479 Speaker 3: and full of great and. 90 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 2: I think we've been supermissive. 91 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:08,159 Speaker 3: To say, oh, you know, okay, I understand the Constitution, I. 92 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 1: Interfere Samuel Alito's vision of the world, us versus them, 93 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:18,280 Speaker 1: one side wins, and he's clearly on that side. The 94 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,320 Speaker 1: man is unfit. And so it has come to be that, 95 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 1: in a moment of growing political crisis, we face as 96 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: a country one of the great judicial crises in our history, 97 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 1: because the Supreme Court can no longer be viewed as 98 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 1: a credible institution with the continued service of the corrupted 99 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 1: judges Alito and Thomas from the bench, who have been 100 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:48,720 Speaker 1: rebuked in no form or fashion by anyone, so far 101 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 1: as an American citizen can see, not by the Chief Justice, 102 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 1: not by the Congress, by nobody. And these people, like 103 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:05,560 Speaker 1: all Americans, are not above the law. This does demonstrate 104 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: the absolute, urgent moral necessity to amend the Constitution of 105 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 1: the United States and to change the absurdity of life 106 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 1: tenure to a shorter term, whether that be ten years 107 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 1: or fifteen years or whatever. The service of seventy years 108 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 1: on the Supreme Court by someone like Samuel Alito, with 109 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 1: no recourse whatsoever with regards to his corruption is simply unacceptable. 110 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 1: Lauren Winsor also gained a lot of clarity around the 111 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 1: flag issue. Apparently Martha Alito thinks about flags very often. 112 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 1: She is an aggressive, aggrieved and angry woman, a type 113 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 1: of super Karen, a Tyrannosaurus rex of karens with sharpened teeth, 114 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 1: ready to bite down on the thems and to get revenge. 115 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 1: Let's listen to our her talk to a perfect stranger 116 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 1: with a lot of venom about a reporter who doesn't 117 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 1: work for the New York Times, but rather the Washington 118 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 1: Post who wrote the story she's complaining about twenty years ago. 119 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: The story she references with regard to Jane Roberts was 120 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 1: a controversial piece where the fashion reporter mentioned the attire 121 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 1: of the Roberts twins, who were toddlers at the time 122 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 1: but are now in their early twenties. 123 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:37,079 Speaker 5: Nope, Almos denigrated early on. And when we first came 124 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 5: to town and the woman then won a Pulitzer price, 125 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,719 Speaker 5: she was commenting on my clothes. She said that I 126 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 5: wore a baby blanket one day, and the next time 127 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 5: I had on a lazyboy refliner patterned suit and so 128 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 5: once she won her pulletzer, I called her up and said, hello, 129 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 5: is this Robin Gavana the New York Times. 130 00:08:58,000 --> 00:08:58,439 Speaker 3: Yes it is. 131 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 5: I said, oh, I'm so proud of you. You're getting 132 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 5: a pullitzerprise. I said, I will you be wearing balanchega? 133 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 1: And she goes no, I said why not? 134 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 5: She said it doesn't flatter me. I said, oh, call 135 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 5: it on such a high end thing, it doesn't flatter you. 136 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 5: And then I said to her, you know, it's. 137 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:18,199 Speaker 2: A beautiful day. 138 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 1: Is April two. 139 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:21,680 Speaker 3: Six? 140 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 5: I said, maybe I want to go outside today in 141 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 5: New York. 142 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,080 Speaker 2: It's really beautiful, take a walk. 143 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 5: You can enjoy life. She never came after me again, 144 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 5: but she went out for Jane Roberts again. That's why 145 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,839 Speaker 5: she got her closter between Jane and me, criticizing the 146 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:39,560 Speaker 5: clothes that Jane put the children in and the clothes 147 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 5: that we wore. 148 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 1: I'm going to make a prediction. By this time tomorrow, 149 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:48,559 Speaker 1: the Robin Givon story that Martha Alito told will have 150 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 1: been revealed to have been a figment of her imagination, 151 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 1: completely made up. But what's not made up it's her 152 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,079 Speaker 1: animus against gay people. Let's listen to that. 153 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:02,320 Speaker 5: I made a flag head. This is how I satisfy myself. 154 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 5: I made a flag. It's white and it's yellow and 155 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 5: orange flames around it, and in the middle is the 156 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 5: word vigonia. Virgonia in Italian means shame, virgonia v e 157 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:19,479 Speaker 5: rg o g na vigonia, shame, shame. 158 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:25,319 Speaker 1: Shame you verona varonia. It's like a scene from a 159 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 1: Godfather knockoff. But as it turns out, Mortho Alito isn't Italian. 160 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: She's German. I actually knew that because I ran the 161 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 1: confirmation process. But let's hear her talk about being German. 162 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 3: Now. 163 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 5: I heritage is Germany. You come after me. I can't 164 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 5: give it back to you, and there will be away. 165 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 3: It doesn't have to be now, but there will be away. 166 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:49,760 Speaker 1: They were remote. 167 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 5: Don't worry about it. 168 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 1: It's interesting what she latches onto. It isn't the history 169 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 1: of German art or music or literature. She doesn't talk 170 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,959 Speaker 1: with shame about being stigmatized as a German by the 171 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: actions of Germans eighty years ago. Now what she embraces 172 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:13,599 Speaker 1: is a German caricature for revenge, for a reprisal for 173 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 1: mass execution, no doubt, for the legacy of Ladice. Let's 174 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 1: listen to Martha Anne celebrate her Germanic roots, her zeal 175 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 1: four line them against the wall for the reprisal. 176 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:29,720 Speaker 5: I suppose you read the Bible, so I twenty seven 177 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 5: is my song mine? Well, song twenty seven The Lord 178 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 5: is my God and my wrong? 179 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:36,679 Speaker 3: Of whom shall I be? 180 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:43,439 Speaker 1: A phrase? Revenge, anger, retribution. Let's listen to Martha Anne 181 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 1: talk about getting people. 182 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 5: Now what I want. I want a sacred Heart of Jesus' 183 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 5: flag because I had to look across the lagoon at 184 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 5: the Pride flag for the next month exactly, and he's like, oh, please, 185 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 5: don't put up a flag. I said, I won't do 186 00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 5: it because I'm deferring to you. But when you were 187 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,840 Speaker 5: free of this nonsense, I'm putting it up and I'm 188 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 5: going to send them a message every day. 189 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 1: This is great news for America, isn't it? 190 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 3: Soon? 191 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 1: The Supreme Court, on a case that Justice Alito refuses 192 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 1: to recuse himself from, will decide if Donald Trump has 193 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 1: maximum power, the power to kill any American citizen that 194 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:22,319 Speaker 1: he chooses, because presidents are truly above the law. That 195 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,240 Speaker 1: is the case that Trump is arguing it, and it 196 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 1: seems from the Alito recordings that Alito, who has a 197 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 1: worldview that one side wins and one side loses, would 198 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:37,640 Speaker 1: seem to appreciate the argument for absolute power where one 199 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,839 Speaker 1: side could kill the other. Nes pa, isn't that the 200 00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 1: logical conclusion of the words of this embittered man. This 201 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 1: man has become radicalized in the maga era, and there 202 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 1: he sits on the bench for the rest of his life, 203 00:12:56,400 --> 00:13:01,319 Speaker 1: beyond reach, with absolute impunity to do as he wishes, 204 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,959 Speaker 1: beyond the law, above the law. Are we to live 205 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 1: under Alito's law? This is madness, must be opposed, and 206 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 1: it must be stopped. And understand, whatever remedy to this 207 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 1: is talked about, debated about is appropriate. Expanding the size 208 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 1: of the court is an appropriate debate. It must be 209 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:27,839 Speaker 1: because the magnitude of the offense against the concepts to 210 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 1: which Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas wore allegiance are profound, exceptional, 211 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:37,720 Speaker 1: and terrifying. When you listen to Martha Alito and her 212 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 1: husband sam you should understand that what these recordings prove, 213 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,959 Speaker 1: beyond the shadow of a doubt, whatsoever is the man 214 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:51,679 Speaker 1: described in all of the investigative pieces of journalism, in politico, 215 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:55,679 Speaker 1: in ProPublica, all of them are dead on. How do 216 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:59,440 Speaker 1: we know, because Sam Alito told us in his own words. 217 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 1: So what we have now is a crisis of the 218 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:08,440 Speaker 1: most severe magnitude, a crisis of legitimacy affecting the Supreme 219 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 1: Court of the United States of America at a time 220 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 1: when the Supreme Court has found itself in the middle 221 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:21,200 Speaker 1: of adjudicating the culture war that has been unleashed on 222 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 1: the country by the radicalism of the Court itself. It 223 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 1: is a truly amazing moment and a deeply dangerous one. 224 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 1: Lauren Windsor did something exceptional. It took daring, it took guts, 225 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 1: and this is the type of journalism that will be 226 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 1: necessary to fight back and combat what is coming, because 227 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 1: on the public stage, these people are too clever by half. 228 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 1: We live in a post constitutional era where the emergency 229 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 1: is so great, our culture so on fire, that we 230 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 1: need to take a time out from all this liberty stuff, 231 00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 1: all this democracy. We just have to pick Trump. He'll 232 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:03,240 Speaker 1: fit everything for us. The Alitos may believe that he 233 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 1: may even abuse his power in his office to try 234 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 1: to achieve it, but you should never fall for it, 235 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 1: because it is the greatest lie ever told. And let 236 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 1: me say finally this, it's the person who ran that 237 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:20,720 Speaker 1: confirmation process for Samuel Alito almost twenty years ago. The 238 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 1: magnitude of President Bush's mistake and appointing this man, the 239 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 1: catastrophe of the mistake, is only rivaled and superseded by 240 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 1: the Iraq War itself. Samuel Alito is unfit. He is 241 00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 1: unfit temperamentally, he is unfit psychologically. He is unfit by 242 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 1: his words indeeds for service on the United States Supreme Court. 243 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 1: But understand, his arrogance is so acute, his judgment so impaired, 244 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:55,120 Speaker 1: that he feels comfortable saying what he said out loud 245 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 1: to Lauren Windsor on the occasion of their first meeting, 246 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:03,160 Speaker 1: to a perfect stranger. And that's perfectly incredible. Samuel Leito 247 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 1: is a political radical posing as a Supreme Court justice, 248 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 1: and that means deep trouble ahead for all of us. 249 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 1: If there is a narrow election victory that Joe Biden 250 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 1: has won, understand that one hundred and forty seven days 251 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 1: from now, the election will not be over. It will 252 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 1: begin a process by which radicals like Samuel Alito work 253 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:28,240 Speaker 1: in the shadows behind the scenes, seeking to overturn it 254 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:31,240 Speaker 1: on the basis of a lie that they have now 255 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 1: long subscribed to that they have pushed out over and 256 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 1: over again, trying to poison the American mind. The lie 257 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 1: is that the loser of the presidential election is really 258 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 1: the winner, and he should have ultimate power to punish 259 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 1: the people who dared vote against him.
