1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,560 Speaker 1: It's Wednesday, June the eighteenth. This is the warning. 2 00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:07,840 Speaker 2: Tucker Carlson has proven himself time and time again to 3 00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:11,119 Speaker 2: be both a fascist and one of the most odious 4 00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:13,800 Speaker 2: figures in the country. He's a person who had a 5 00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:17,880 Speaker 2: holocaust denier pseudo history professor on his show who claimed 6 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:21,760 Speaker 2: that Winston Churchill was the villain of the Second World War, implying, 7 00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:24,520 Speaker 2: of course, that Adolph Hitler was misunderstood. 8 00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:27,240 Speaker 3: I thought Churchill was the chief villain of the Second 9 00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 3: World War. Now, he didn't kill the most people, he 10 00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:34,879 Speaker 3: didn't commit the most atrocities. But I believe, and I 11 00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:36,880 Speaker 3: don't really think. I think when you really get into 12 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:40,880 Speaker 3: it and tell the story right and don't leave anything out, 13 00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,520 Speaker 3: you see that he was primarily responsible for that war 14 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 3: becoming what it did, becoming something other than an invasion 15 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:47,519 Speaker 3: of Poland. 16 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:51,920 Speaker 2: Tucker Carlson has been one of the leading advocates for 17 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 2: introducing white supremacist replacement theory into the American main stream. 18 00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:02,680 Speaker 2: His show is repugnant pysicians. More so, he is a dangerous, 19 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:06,760 Speaker 2: demagogic figure who has helped lead the assault on the 20 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:11,039 Speaker 2: public health system by pushing forward the grifters CALLI means 21 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:15,120 Speaker 2: and his sister, the residency drop out doctor Casey Means 22 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:18,960 Speaker 2: who is as unfit as RFK is to be surgeon general, 23 00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 2: as he is HHS Secretary, as Pete Hegseth is Defense Secretary, 24 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 2: as Tulsey Gabbert is Director of National Intelligence. 25 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,039 Speaker 1: All of these people unfit. 26 00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:35,480 Speaker 2: Pam Bondi, Christy Nome, Tucker Carlson is awful, and Tucker 27 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 2: Carlson is a divider who has harmed our country in 28 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 2: profound ways. Yesterday he did an interview on the opposite 29 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 2: side of an important issue with another repugnant figure of 30 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 2: the MAGA Wright and that would be Ted Cruz. And 31 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 2: so it comes to be the Tucker Carlson and Ted 32 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,880 Speaker 2: Cruz face off across from each other in an interview 33 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 2: on the Edge of War, and Tucker Carlson asked the 34 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 2: question to the anxious junior senator from the state of Texas, 35 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 2: and it's about Iran. 36 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:09,640 Speaker 4: How many people living around? 37 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 5: By the way, I don't know the population at all. No, 38 00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 5: I don't know the population. 39 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 4: You don't know the population of the country you seek 40 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 4: to topple. How many people living around ninety two million? 41 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 5: Okay? Yeah? How could you not know that? I don't 42 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 5: sit around memorizing population tables. 43 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 4: Well, it's kind of relevant because you're calling for the 44 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 4: overthrow of the government. 45 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,359 Speaker 5: Why is it relevant whether it will because ninety million 46 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 5: or eighty million or a hundred million. 47 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 4: Because if you don't know anything about the country. You 48 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 4: didn't say I don't know anything about Okay, what's the 49 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:44,959 Speaker 4: ethnic mix of iron They are Persians and well presonantly Shia. Okay, 50 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 4: you don't know anything about Iran. 51 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 5: So okay, I'm not the Tucker Carlson Mixus bird on Iran. 52 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 4: You're a center who's calling there the one government about 53 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 4: the country. 54 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 5: Ain, No, you don't know anything about the country. You're 55 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:00,919 Speaker 5: the one who claims they're not trying to murder Donald Trump. 56 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 3: I'm not saying that. 57 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 5: Who can't figure out to say, General Solamonia, you believe 58 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 5: they're trying to murder Trump? 59 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 4: Yes, because you're not calling for military strikes against them 60 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 4: in retaliation. And if they really believed that carrying out 61 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 4: military strikes today, who said Israel was right with our help? 62 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,079 Speaker 5: I've said we Israel is leading them, but we're supporting them. 63 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 4: Well, this you're breaking news here because the US government 64 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 4: last night denied the National Security Council spokesman Alex Feiffer 65 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 4: denied on behalf of Trump that we were acting on 66 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 4: Israel's behalf in any offensive capacity. 67 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,399 Speaker 5: We're not bombing, then Israel's bombing them. You just said 68 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 5: we were. We are supporting ass. 69 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 4: You're a senator if you're saying the United States government 70 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 4: is now, we're with a run right now. 71 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 1: People are listening now. 72 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 2: Ted Cruz is cheerleading for America to bomb Iran. And 73 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 2: before we get into it, let's look at what Donald 74 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 2: Trump said about the story of the American military over 75 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 2: the last twenty years. He called it at the two 76 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 2: hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the US Army Desecration Parade. 77 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 2: He talked about the US military being an undefeated, unbeatable 78 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 2: force of Superman. 79 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 6: Let's watch time and again, America's enemies have learned that 80 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 6: if you threatened the American people, our soldiers are coming 81 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:20,679 Speaker 6: for you. Your defeat will be certain, your demise will be final, 82 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:32,479 Speaker 6: and your downfall will be total and complete. Because our 83 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 6: soldiers never give up, never surrender, and never ever quit. 84 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 6: They fight, fight, fight, and they win, win win. 85 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 2: Is that the experience of the last twenty years of 86 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:48,160 Speaker 2: the American soldier, sailor, airmen, and marine at war sent 87 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 2: to wars on false pretenses. This country lost two wars 88 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 2: in the twenty first century, and it did profound moral 89 00:04:56,640 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 2: injury to a generation of veterans who was sent to 90 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 2: fight in them. And now, less than two years after 91 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:06,479 Speaker 2: the end of those wars, the United States stands on 92 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 2: the edge of war, with Iran being cheerleaded by irresponsible 93 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 2: men like Ted Cruz, and so Tucker Carlson asked him 94 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 2: a question, a basic question, How big is Iran? Shouldn't 95 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 2: we know something about the country? We're about the bomb, 96 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 2: like how many people are in it? 97 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 1: How powerful it is? 98 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 2: Is it a country of nine million, a country of 99 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,840 Speaker 2: nine hundred million, ninety million? And in the case of Iran, 100 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,599 Speaker 2: that's the right answer. It's ninety three million. And Ted 101 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 2: Cruz has no idea because he's unprepared, and he's ignorant, 102 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 2: and he's glib, and he's obnoxious, and he doesn't give 103 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 2: a shit. It's all performance, it's all theater. It's all 104 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 2: a joke to him. And the next question Tucker Carlson 105 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,160 Speaker 2: asks him is about the character of the people. 106 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:48,039 Speaker 1: Who are they? 107 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 2: What's their ethnic makeup again. Ted Cruz has no idea. 108 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 2: Shouldn't we know who it is that we're about the 109 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 2: bomb and fight? Shouldn't we know about the regional, ethnic 110 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:02,720 Speaker 2: and tribal differences. Shouldn't we know about the terrain, the economy, 111 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 2: the people, the faults, the schisms in the society. 112 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 1: Or are we to do what we did in two thousand. 113 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 2: And three when a generation of political leaders, mostly fools, 114 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 2: told the American people the American soldier would be welcomed 115 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:18,919 Speaker 2: as a liberator in the levant, It's not how it 116 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,839 Speaker 2: went down, It's not how it happened. And so that foolishness, 117 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 2: that incompetence, that ignorance, paid a catastrophic price for it, 118 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 2: trillions of dollars lost to lost worse. And so Donald 119 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 2: Trump blusters and he puts a proposition. 120 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: On the table. 121 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 2: This ibmoral man who has the statutory authority to drop bombs, 122 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 2: but not the moral authority. He's a person who calls 123 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:47,479 Speaker 2: the parents of the kids who will go into harm's way, 124 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 2: vermin and scumbags, What specifically is. 125 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: Better than a ceasefire? 126 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 2: What are you looking for here? 127 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 1: And a real end, nice fire? And so something that 128 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 1: would be permanent or giving up entirely? Is that okay? 129 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:05,680 Speaker 2: To are you closers? 130 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 1: Are you possible? 131 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 2: Is that possible? 132 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 6: At twenty four White Hut, certainly impossible? Complete, to give up? 133 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 6: That's possibly you. 134 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 2: Donald Trump is waging a civil war in the United States, 135 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 2: sending the US military into the states where Democrats are elected, 136 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 2: because he says he wants to liberate them. And now 137 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 2: that man in those states where he rejects the freedom 138 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 2: and the liberty of the American voters to pick their leaders, 139 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 2: he wants their children to bomb Iran. 140 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 1: No thanks. 141 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:39,119 Speaker 2: So if there's anything that's clear over the last twenty 142 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 2: years in the United States, it should be this. It's 143 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 2: a lot easier to start a war than it is 144 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 2: to end one. And there has never been a president 145 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 2: who is less prepared, less knowledgeable, more ignorant than Donald 146 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 2: Trump at the edge of war, outmatched, overmatched by events 147 00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 2: by the people who make those events happen. 148 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 1: The other world. 149 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:04,160 Speaker 2: America is in big trouble because our president is a 150 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 2: fool surrounded by bigger fools teaming with malice in menace. 151 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 2: And so now they decide, after running on a campaign 152 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 2: agenda of peace, that there is to be war. The 153 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 2: peace president who said he would make America great again 154 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 2: has become a war president who has made America weak, chaotic, 155 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 2: and divided. What Donald Trump promised is the opposite of 156 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 2: what we're about to get. And the American crisis will 157 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 2: deepen still, and the American crisis will deepen. 158 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: More, and things will get worse. 159 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,840 Speaker 2: But after this comes a season of renewal, but there 160 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 2: will be much misery between then and now. 161 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:46,440 Speaker 1: This is the warning.
