1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,200 Speaker 1: That moment when the network's declared that Donald Trump had 2 00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:07,160 Speaker 1: been again elected president of the United States is starting 3 00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:10,520 Speaker 1: to fade. We're moving into the heart now of his 4 00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:14,240 Speaker 1: decision making. We're seeing a preview of what is to come. 5 00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 1: This is the warning. Donald Trump is assembling a cabinet 6 00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:25,079 Speaker 1: of disordered personalities that is the most spectacularly unfit for 7 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:30,440 Speaker 1: serious responsibilities ever put together in the entire history of 8 00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:34,360 Speaker 1: the United States. It is no exaggeration when I say 9 00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:38,560 Speaker 1: that this cabinet threatens your life, your way of life, 10 00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:42,720 Speaker 1: and world peace. It is a Fox News television cabinet, 11 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:47,280 Speaker 1: a freak show cabinet made up of fringe figures who 12 00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:51,159 Speaker 1: would never ever have been trusted with a position of 13 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:57,640 Speaker 1: public responsibility in any serious presidency from the beginning to now, 14 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 1: and yet Donald Trump has forwarded them to the United 15 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:05,479 Speaker 1: States Senate for confirmation. And we're going to look at 16 00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:09,319 Speaker 1: all of these people. But let's start with maybe the 17 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:13,399 Speaker 1: most dangerous one, who is the prettiest one, and therefore, 18 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:17,320 Speaker 1: in America's culture, the one least likely to get the 19 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:22,040 Speaker 1: most attention that she deserves. Tulsea Gabbard is a freak show. 20 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 1: She is a fringe politician, with fringe beliefs, a Fox 21 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:31,400 Speaker 1: News workhorse who becomes Donald Trump's show horse and now 22 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:34,959 Speaker 1: is put in a position to undermine the security of 23 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 1: the United States. Yes, Donald Trump won the election, but 24 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 1: the United States Senate is a coequal branch of government. Certainly, 25 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: it is the case that Donald Trump is the de 26 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 1: facto majority leader. But there is some vestigal independence in 27 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 1: the body, and we'll see if it is exercised with 28 00:01:55,560 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 1: the Big Four. So far, Pete Hegseth spectacularly unfit to 29 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 1: be the Secretary of Defense. This guy is a TV 30 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 1: cartoon figure, a clown. A friend of mine emailed me 31 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:13,680 Speaker 1: as saying, and it's said, when a clown goes to 32 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: the castle, he does not become a king. The castle 33 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 1: becomes a circus. This man will be the civilian chief 34 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 1: of the world's most powerful military in the direct chain 35 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,399 Speaker 1: of command for the launch of nuclear weapons. He will 36 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 1: preside over the world's deadliest fleet of nuclear ballistic missile submarines. 37 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:40,920 Speaker 1: It's preposterous, it's reckless, it's dangerous. And with regard to 38 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 1: Pete Hegseath being a veteran, I don't care. It doesn't 39 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 1: qualify him to do anything. The truth of the matter 40 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 1: is Pete Hegseth has made a nice living. I'm being 41 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,680 Speaker 1: a veteran. He's a professional veteran, a Fox News veteran, 42 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: a Fox News warrior who has been elevated because he 43 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 1: stroked the ego of Donald Trump. The Pentagon has a 44 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 1: trillion dollar budget. Pentagon is a mess, and it's been 45 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 1: a management mess for a long time, and this clown 46 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,359 Speaker 1: will make it worse. He will be divisive, he will 47 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:18,640 Speaker 1: be political, and he will wreck the officer class of 48 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 1: the United States military. He will strain its integrity, he 49 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,519 Speaker 1: will politicize it. There is no way that this fool 50 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:30,640 Speaker 1: can be confirmed. And any Senator who votes yes on 51 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: this is showing that they're no different than some footmen 52 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,880 Speaker 1: that would lick the boots of a Kim Jong Un 53 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 1: or a Vladimir Putin. That they have no independent agency, 54 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 1: They do not work for the people of their state. 55 00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: They do not care about the security of the country. 56 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 1: What they care about is Donald Trump. And that is 57 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 1: the recipe for a disaster that is already cooking and 58 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 1: will spill out this time over all of US. Tulca Gabbert, 59 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: a fringe congresswoman. Here is what she said when Russia 60 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 1: invaded Ukraine, she blamed it on the fact that Russia 61 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 1: had to take the action to prevent Ukraine from joining NATO. 62 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: In Tulsa Gabbert's sick World, it was Western provocation that 63 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:24,359 Speaker 1: triggered Vladimir Putin's war of aggression that led to the 64 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 1: kidnapping of tens of thousands of Ukrainian children, the rape 65 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 1: of hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian women, thousands of war crimes, 66 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 1: and a million deaths in the largest military conflict since 67 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: the end of World War Two. And she wants to 68 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: be the Director of National Intelligence. Strike that Trump wants 69 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 1: her to be the Director of National Intelligence again, United 70 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 1: States Senator, Does that title mean anything? Because Hexeth has 71 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 1: to be opposed and Gabbert has to be opposed, not 72 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,479 Speaker 1: just one of them, both of them, but not just 73 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 1: both of them, three of them. Because Mat Gates has 74 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:08,600 Speaker 1: been nominated to be the Attorney General of the United States. 75 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 1: This is sick, It's twisted, and it cannot stand now. 76 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 1: Matt Gates immediately resigned from Congress on this nomination. He 77 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:25,159 Speaker 1: resigned because there's an ethics report about to be released 78 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:30,119 Speaker 1: that will detail in very damaging terms Matt Gates love 79 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 1: of underage girls. Put aside all the mag of bullshit 80 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: and everything about the election. The American people will tolerate 81 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:42,040 Speaker 1: a grown man in his forties having sex with sixteen 82 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 1: year old girls and make him Attorney General of the 83 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 1: United States. United States senators will sanction that, affirm it, 84 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,920 Speaker 1: give their advice and consent to his cocaine use, to 85 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 1: his drug use. Senate Democrats must demand the release of 86 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 1: the House Ethics Report. It must be demanded that it 87 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: be turned over to the Senate Judiciary Committee, where it 88 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,840 Speaker 1: should be leaked to the American people so they can 89 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,799 Speaker 1: see it. Time to play hard, time to play tough, 90 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 1: and do what is ever necessary to stop these nominations. 91 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 1: Met Gates as Attorney General is an abomination for which 92 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: there really are no words. A privileged punk who's lived 93 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:28,599 Speaker 1: his life as a case study of the effects of 94 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 1: affluenza and its capacity to turn a normal person into 95 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 1: a mentally ill one. Met Gates at a different era 96 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,839 Speaker 1: would have been shoved into a classroom for the emotional 97 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 1: he disturbed. And he's going to be the chief law 98 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:48,479 Speaker 1: enforcement officer next to Tulsi Gabbard, the Russian useful idiot 99 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 1: and the Fox Television mourning personality whose extremeist crosses disqualified 100 00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: him under Dodi tattoo policy from being able to be 101 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 1: in uniform and armed around President Biden's inauguration. Hegseeth Gates Gabbard, 102 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 1: And lastly the one the only, Corey Lewandowski's married mistress, 103 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 1: the woman who gave to Donald Trump a likeness of 104 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 1: Mount Rushmore with the donalds head carved into it, Christineohan, 105 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 1: the governor of South Dakota. Together these four are the 106 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 1: four horsemen of the apocalypse. Christineohm promises to implement, as 107 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 1: one of Trump's most prominent sycophants, police state policies that 108 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 1: we really don't know a lot about. Pete Hegseeth is 109 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 1: a cartoon, a clown both. Do you think the reaction 110 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 1: to a man or a woman who spent his entire life, 111 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 1: for her entire life and service to the nation, who 112 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 1: rises to the position of commander captain of a ballistic 113 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 1: missile submarine would think about this clown? Tulca Gabbert, a 114 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 1: useful idiot, somebody who looks at every problem in the 115 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: world through the Fox News filter that shades her meager 116 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:10,559 Speaker 1: intellect and processes it through the prism of America's wrong 117 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 1: and Russia's right, and every bad thing that happens is 118 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: caused by something we did, as opposed to the malice 119 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 1: of the dictators who made it happen. And mac Gates 120 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 1: from investigated, punk congressman, investigated for sleeping with sixteen year olds, 121 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 1: investigated for cocaine use to Attorney General of the United 122 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 1: States overnight. So what do we do. We should understand 123 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 1: as a people the titanic costs that we have purchased 124 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 1: with the election of Donald Trump. Who's going to turn 125 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 1: around to the American people that elected him and say 126 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 1: and take as much as he can get. And he'll 127 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:54,080 Speaker 1: have the permission to do it because all around him, 128 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 1: everywhere he looks, will be a sea of people who 129 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 1: will never say the thing that cannot be set around 130 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 1: Donald Trump, the new organizing principle of the United States government. 131 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 1: Never tell him no. That Donald can only hear yes 132 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 1: to every idea, to every whim, to every abuse. You see, 133 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,600 Speaker 1: that's what it means to be loyal to America, to 134 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 1: tell Donald Trump yes. And so it may not be 135 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 1: on January twenty second, but there's a good chance it 136 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,959 Speaker 1: could be the disaster will start to unroll, and it 137 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 1: will come because literally the worst amongst us has been 138 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 1: empowered with awesome powers candied to him by the American people. 139 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 1: And there's nothing that anybody can do, really, aside from 140 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,320 Speaker 1: sue in the courts of law or rely on the 141 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:51,080 Speaker 1: good faith of a couple of Republican senators who will 142 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 1: look out and say it's a bridge too far. But then, 143 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 1: of course, one of those senators is Susan Collins, the 144 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 1: pro troice senator from and who is responsible for stripping 145 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:06,679 Speaker 1: abortion rights away as much as Trump is from America's women. 146 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:12,080 Speaker 1: Will there be any opposition to Trump's worst impulses. We're 147 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 1: about to find out. And if the answer to that 148 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 1: question is now, then these four people will hold together 149 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 1: more collective power by misfits than at any other point 150 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:29,320 Speaker 1: in American history, reckless danger, as unhinged people. There will 151 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:33,320 Speaker 1: be no escaping the disaster, and nobody escapes it by 152 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 1: tuning out. I suggest a different path, tuning in. Stop 153 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 1: these nominations. They will be a disaster for America. This 154 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 1: is the warning. I'm Steve Schmidt.
