1
00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:11,680
Speaker 1: And the word democrat is something that's come into fashion.

2
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:15,200
Speaker 1: I changed the E with the U, and most people

3
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:17,720
Speaker 1: don't know that dumb has a be, so we don't

4
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:20,880
Speaker 1: have to worry about that. It's very quiet. I thought

5
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:23,240
Speaker 1: it was quite good, but I haven't gotten much credit

6
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:27,800
Speaker 1: for that. Fake news good. Pocahont is good. I won't

7
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:30,160
Speaker 1: say lion ted because he's on my side. I don't

8
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 1: talk about past conquests, but we.

9
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:34,440
Speaker 2: Have a lot of them.

10
00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:37,600
Speaker 1: I won't talk about they got a whole table full

11
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:38,680
Speaker 1: of Republicans there.

12
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:41,680
Speaker 2: They say, no, don't mention my frickin' nay, will you please?

13
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:43,839
Speaker 2: But we've had a lot of good names.

14
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:49,320
Speaker 1: But the Democrats are there to destroy wealth, and honestly,

15
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:50,800
Speaker 1: they've gone absolutely crazy.

16
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 3: There you go, the journalistic equivalent of Chernobyl. That was

17
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:59,480
Speaker 3: the White House correspondence on Friday, Donald Trump an hour

18
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:02,840
Speaker 3: and for hm minut of that. It was a fucking

19
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:07,880
Speaker 3: disaster and I loved almost every second of it. To

20
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 3: break that down, along with a few other things, including

21
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 3: the Democratic Party being broke and Ice ramping up, there

22
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:17,760
Speaker 3: a tour of hatred and evil. Please welcome back to

23
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 3: Dead Air. On behalf of the Safe of America Movement,

24
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:22,960

26
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 3: little slice of Donald Trump at the White House correspondence?

27
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:28,119
Speaker 4: There?

28
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 3: We've got more. I don't know how much you can handle.

29
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 3: But my god, my god, a big breath.

30
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 5: I feel like my heart is palpitating. If I had

31
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 5: a blood pressure cuff on, it would be rising high,

32
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 5: very high. Deed, I know a lot of people in

33
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 5: that room. Yeah right, And I've been to that dinner

34
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 5: many times. And I don't think you have to prosecute

35
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 5: the entirety of his list of depravities, his subpoena in

36
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 5: New York Times reporters last week, their parents who reported

37
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:26,200
Speaker 5: on the insanity of his corrupt guitary jet, so on

38
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 5: and so forth, the enemies of the people, the abuse

39
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 5: that he showered out at at Caitlin Collins. Does no

40
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 5: one have any sense of dignity, any notion of propriety,

41
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:58,680
Speaker 5: any any anything, decency right, decency, shame right to just

42
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,920
Speaker 5: get up and walk out of the room, to have

43
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 5: the judgment over my dead fucking body. I'm not going.

44
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 5: I'm not going. You can't make me go. I know

45
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:18,800
Speaker 5: we have video of Kristen Welker with the architect of

46
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:25,359
Speaker 5: murder and violence, the host of Meet the Press at

47
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker 5: the network of Tom Brocall and Tim Russard and John

48
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 5: Chancellor and Barbara Walters Katie Couric at the pray fascist disgusting.

49
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 4: Does not do it justice.

50
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 5: If you watch it closely, you see the guy in

51
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 5: the background of the clip. He turns and he's impressed

52
00:03:56,520 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 5: with himself, laughing at the stupidity.

53
00:03:59,240 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 4: Of it all.

54
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 5: Clever indeed, what a disgrace, the most corrupt place on earth.

55
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 5: And if you're a Democratic party, we're gonna we're gonna

56
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:19,479
Speaker 5: talk about them. She should never host a debate. She

57
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,600
Speaker 5: should never host a debate.

58
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 3: Kristen Welker.

59
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 5: There should be no hosted debates anchored by these corrupt

60
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:30,839
Speaker 5: corporate media companies.

61
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 4: None. None.

62
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,679
Speaker 3: Can I play that? Can I play that Welker clip?

63
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 3: Because this in sends you your friends with Kristen Welker,

64
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 3: you know her.

65
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:44,360
Speaker 5: I'm not friends with her. I mean, you know, I

66
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 5: was an analyst at MSNBC News for eleven years and

67
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 5: demire friends. We spend a lot of time together. We

68
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 5: we know each other's kids. You know, the the over

69
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 5: indexing of the word friends and as in all my

70
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 5: friends in the room in Washington. There you see a

71
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,680
Speaker 5: power click. Everyone friends with one another. No, I'm not

72
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 5: friends with Kristin Welker. I'm a person who's cross paths

73
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:17,680
Speaker 5: with Kristen Welker and has had pleasant exchanges with Kristen Welker.

74
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 5: But I hold Christen Welker in complete contempt. And the

75
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:26,280
Speaker 5: reason I do is because she's immoral. And she's immoral,

76
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 5: and the evidence of that is in this clip. She

77
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 5: is completely inept at her job at holding power to

78
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 5: account at an epic level. And now you see why.

79
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,360
Speaker 5: What she wants to do is put on the heels

80
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 5: and the pretty fushit dress and be in the room

81
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 5: where it happens. And when she was doing that, there's

82
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 5: a little hispanic kid sleeping on cold concrete, being fed

83
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 5: disgusting food with worms in it, People being tortured, people

84
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:05,920
Speaker 5: being abused. That's the architect of plans to stash human

85
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 5: beings into warehouses. She's the host to meet the press.

86
00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 5: She has the job that Tim Russer had.

87
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 3: Holy Fuckatola, Yeah, shameful. There's a clip of Kristen Welker,

88
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:23,920
Speaker 3: yucking it up with Stephen Miller, as you pointed out,

89
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 3: the architect of the concentration camp society in the United States,

90
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 3: the architect of.

91
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 4: The eduer behind her too.

92
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:41,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, there you go, eat my Waldorf salad there, every.

93
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:41,920
Speaker 4: One of them.

94
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:45,480
Speaker 5: And by the way, by the way, right so you

95
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:49,360
Speaker 5: like I can appreciate I guess at some level, right

96
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 5: that I make two million dollars a year as a

97
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:55,280
Speaker 5: complete mediocrity in a in a job I'm not good at,

98
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:57,159
Speaker 5: and I don't want to lose it because I'll.

99
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,280
Speaker 4: Never have one again, ever again.

100
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 5: Ever, right like that. It's so I gotta go to

101
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 5: the dinner.

102
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 3: But isn't that part of it for some of these people?

103
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 3: Can't you give? Do you give any of them a

104
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 3: pass like a Chrystal Well? No, maybe, because I can

105
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,679
Speaker 3: understand having to attend being part of your job description.

106
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 3: But yucking it up and touching Steven Miller on the arm,

107
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 3: having a great time with the Trump regime, having a

108
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 3: great time with Trump's Goebels. To me, that was the

109
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 3: most objectionable part of it. And we haven't even gotten

110
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:33,920
Speaker 3: to the supercut of Trump's unbelievable fucking bomb show yesterday

111
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 3: or sorry on Friday. Like to me, that was the

112
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 3: most objectionable part seeing people that are supposed to hold

113
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 3: truth to power having a great time with people fascists

114
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 3: that are hurting Americans daily thirty nine thousand, five hundred

115
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 3: put an nice attention facilities last month by Steven Miller

116
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,480
Speaker 3: last month alone, just in the month of July, thirty

117
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 3: nine thousand, five hundred people, children, women, Americans, nonviolent migrants,

118
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 3: people allowed to be in that country. And there's Chris

119
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 3: and Welker and I apologize for calling your friends, but

120
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:06,640
Speaker 3: this was the most objectionable thing in the evening. This

121
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,400
Speaker 3: is the thing that you've talked about the most, not

122
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 3: just the sycophancy, but the the collegial attitude of people

123
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 3: like Kristen Welker in that room that night.

124
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 5: The first point to point broadcast in world history.

125
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:32,000
Speaker 4: Meaning that you have someone on air in.

126
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 5: A certain place, point A, and they're transmitting to point

127
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 5: B to point C to point B.

128
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 4: And that happened with Edward R.

129
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 5: Morrow standing in Vienna during the early hours of the Anschluss,

130
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:54,880
Speaker 5: and the voice of Morrow, most important broadcast journalists in history,

131
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 5: is carried back to New York on the CBS News

132
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:02,960
Speaker 5: airwaves that Barry Weis got rid of killing the tradition

133
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 5: of CBS News radio not long ago, but at any rate,

134
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 5: Edward Rmorrow makes the observation that I am in Vienna,

135
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 5: Edward Rmorrow, broadcasting live from Vienna. Herr Hitler has not

136
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,719
Speaker 5: yet arrived.

137
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:22,599
Speaker 4: He later.

138
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:30,040
Speaker 5: Illuminates in the same way what's happening from these London

139
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:41,319
Speaker 5: rooftops at a moment of true testing for the world

140
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 5: and for the United States, when the truth and the

141
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 5: lie are embroiled in a deadly struggle, and after the war,

142
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 5: he gives one of the most important speeches in journalism,

143
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 5: the Lights in a Box speech.

144
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:56,320
Speaker 4: And what Edward Armorrow.

145
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 5: Talks about in that speech is the recognition that we

146
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:02,719
Speaker 5: live a dangerous world that's on the edge of destruction,

147
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:07,559
Speaker 5: and that in the struggle between freedom and its opposite,

148
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 5: that journalists are not neutral parties, that the American point

149
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 5: of view.

150
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 4: Is central.

151
00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 5: To the journalistic identity because freedom is the foundation of

152
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:27,560
Speaker 5: it all.

153
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:31,480
Speaker 4: And this was a travesty. This man Trump.

154
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:39,160
Speaker 5: Is the enemy of press freedom in America, has declared

155
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:44,199
Speaker 5: himself its enemy, and has established himself as his foremost enemy.

156
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 5: What you see, there is a moral collaboration by a

157
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:59,800
Speaker 5: lost woman as hollow as a Lindsay Graham, as dead

158
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:05,720
Speaker 5: inside from a conviction perspective and ethic perspective as Mitch

159
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:07,200
Speaker 5: McConnell currently is.

160
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:11,440
Speaker 4: And it is.

161
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:16,840
Speaker 5: Awful, Yeah, to see the disintegration of this. No, she

162
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:22,560
Speaker 5: was not reporting, she was appeasing. That's a broadcast partner,

163
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:28,840
Speaker 5: it's show business. She's ineffective at what she does, and

164
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 5: she doesn't have the judgment to stay away from Stephen

165
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:35,440
Speaker 5: Miller on camera because at the end of the day,

166
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:40,839
Speaker 5: she doesn't understand what it is that she's supposed to

167
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:42,000
Speaker 5: be doing for a living.

168
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 3: M Well said, Well said, and I would agree with you,

169
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:50,880
Speaker 3: you know, and I think that, you know, for anybody

170
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:52,640
Speaker 3: that was in that room. I wrote a piece about

171
00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 3: it this weekend. If you've ever seen the if you've

172
00:11:55,760 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 3: ever seen the Seinfeld Norm McDonald episode Comedians having getting

173
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:02,959
Speaker 3: in cars having coffee, I you've seen the Norm MacDonald

174
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:06,160
Speaker 3: Jerry Seinfeld one where he talked about Patton Oswalt and

175
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 3: he's like, Patton Oswald said, the worst part about this

176
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:12,160
Speaker 3: is the hypocrisy, and he said, I disagree. Think it's

177
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 3: all the raping and that's why when I see Kristin

178
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 3: Welker at this thing, knowing he's a thirty one time

179
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:26,800
Speaker 3: sexual predator, convicted of an adjudicated rape of E. G.

180
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:29,120
Speaker 3: And Carrol having to pay her five point two million

181
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,680
Speaker 3: dollars for all the female journalists that were there co

182
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 3: signing their night, standing next to a rapist who's been

183
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:39,800
Speaker 3: empowered by every fascist around him, and every other rapist

184
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,440
Speaker 3: and every other pedophile in the Epstein files. I don't

185
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 3: have to go down the first amendments, you know, going

186
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:49,600
Speaker 3: after New York Times journalists sending you know, the FBI

187
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 3: reporters to find leaks at other journalist's house, from the

188
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 3: Wall Street journal people who are honored that night. I

189
00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 3: don't have to go that far down the road. It's

190
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:58,840
Speaker 3: a very simple premise. It's all the raping for me.

191
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:01,840
Speaker 3: And so when you all those people, specifically women in

192
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:04,800
Speaker 3: that room co signing all of that behavior, and I

193
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 3: didn't watch it. I just watched the clips. I wrote

194
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 3: that piece this morning because you don't have to go

195
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:11,960
Speaker 3: you have to go to one one line item, one

196
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,560
Speaker 3: line item about this regime and about this man to

197
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 3: support anything that supports him or where he ingratiates himself

198
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 3: to the American people by gaslighting them, like we saw

199
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 3: on Friday, saw him a little hot about it. And

200
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:25,679
Speaker 3: it's to quote nor McDonald, it's all the raping. And

201
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:26,560
Speaker 3: that's the problem that.

202
00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 5: I have with Oh yeah, I mean, because well and

203
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 5: your moral you're going to be trying to be.

204
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:34,640
Speaker 4: Right and.

205
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:40,439
Speaker 5: It is just just a shattering night. There's an exceptional

206
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:47,320
Speaker 5: documentary that is out now was in the movie theaters

207
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 5: briefly about the life of Lenny Reefinstall And if I

208
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:59,839
Speaker 5: could suggest to Kristin Welker, cuddle up in the pajamas

209
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 5: with a nice glass of wine, maybe invite the Miller's over.

210
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:08,760
Speaker 4: And watch.

211
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,880
Speaker 5: And Lenny lived to be one hundred and one. Yeah right,

212
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 5: wait till you get to the end.

213
00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:17,680
Speaker 4: All right, it's the best part.

214
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,600
Speaker 3: All right, we should all be watching it. I want

215
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 3: to play on another super cut. I don't know how

216
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:24,160
Speaker 3: much of this you can take. You know, we're talking

217
00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:26,560
Speaker 3: about the poor judgment of individuals. But the gentleman that

218
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 3: was center stage, Donald Trump for an hour and four minutes,

219
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 3: legitimately was incoherent. He was not funny. It It reminded

220
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:35,280
Speaker 3: me of I don't know if you've seen Lord of

221
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 3: the Rings billbo standing up to celebrate his birthday before

222
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 3: he disappears, tells everybody in the shire to go fuck themselves.

223
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 3: You remember that. It reminded me of that, minus any

224
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 3: jokes or in or coherence. What's what?

225
00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:46,640
Speaker 6: Like?

226
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:49,680
Speaker 5: I just I know we're gonna We're gonna show this

227
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:51,600
Speaker 5: like am I am? My first is you know you

228
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,320
Speaker 5: think of the words like judge, not unless you be judged.

229
00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 3: Yeah right, I'm not judge.

230
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 5: At the same at the same time. Right, there's an

231
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 5: exception every right, So.

232
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 4: Here you go.

233
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:06,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's play the clip, nice little super cut from Friday.

234
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 1: But just like my presidency, the second time is always better.

235
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 1: It's always better, and.

236
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 2: The third time will be better. Yet.

237
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm only hilarious.

238
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 1: But let me also think the incoming president of the

239
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:31,680
Speaker 1: Correspondence Association, Jackie Heinrich. She can be very tough as

240
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,560
Speaker 1: a reporter. I will tell you she can be nasty.

241
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 1: She looks so beautiful, but she can be so nasty.

242
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 1: How could that happen? But she just got married to

243
00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:43,960
Speaker 1: a very successful congressman, very good congressman.

244
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 2: I'd like to have a couple of more boats from it.

245
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:50,600
Speaker 2: That's okay. On occasion, he chose a little independence. We

246
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 2: don't like that.

247
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:55,360
Speaker 1: Despite everything that happened at the previous dinner and all

248
00:15:55,440 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 1: of the dangers involved, I'm told that this is still the.

249
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 2: Hottest ticket in town.

250
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 1: This ticket to get in tonight because it's a smaller room,

251
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,400
Speaker 1: it's a beautiful room, it's a luxury room. See those

252
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 1: beautiful chandlers. I can tell you everything about them if

253
00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:13,720
Speaker 1: you'd like to know. I hope that everyone finally got

254
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 1: to enjoy their entire very delicious beef tenderloins, very special beef.

255
00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:23,800
Speaker 1: And I want you all to know that Bobby Kennedy

256
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:27,000
Speaker 1: is right here. Personally ran over the cow in his

257
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:32,880
Speaker 1: car and he cut it up and he brought it

258
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 1: here for you to eat tonight, so it's very fresh.

259
00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 6: You know.

260
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 1: The one thing about the press that I learned, don't

261
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:43,120
Speaker 1: be sarcastic when because I'm a very sarcastic person and

262
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,800
Speaker 1: I get sarcastic, and most people know that. But so

263
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 1: you have some bad people that will write it exactly like.

264
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 2: I say it. And I said, I was only kidding.

265
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:54,920
Speaker 1: For all of the trouble that you give me, you

266
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:56,640
Speaker 1: give me a lot of trouble, a lot of heartache.

267
00:16:57,480 --> 00:16:59,360
Speaker 1: I hope all of you know that I believe in

268
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 1: the free press more than anyone in this room does.

269
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 2: Maybe not quite, but.

270
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,000
Speaker 1: That's why I'm proud to be the most open and

271
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:11,000
Speaker 1: transparent president in history.

272
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:13,960
Speaker 2: You know. But you people have no idea how lucky

273
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 2: you are when I'm gone.

274
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 1: You're all going to be broke. Your business model is

275
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,560
Speaker 1: going to be fit. And this is a somewhat of

276
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:27,160
Speaker 1: a scoop my intention to run for a fourth term

277
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:29,920
Speaker 1: as President of the United States.

278
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 2: I will be doing that. I will be.

279
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:34,399
Speaker 1: Having an official In fact, I think I have.

280
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:41,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I want three times. Now I'm gonna do it again.

281
00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:46,560
Speaker 3: There you go, he's got the Trump twenty twenty eight

282
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 3: hat on. That was two and a half minutes. You'll

283
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:51,879
Speaker 3: never get back. Thank you for sitting through that with us,

284
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:57,320
Speaker 3: ladies and gentlemen. Not sick, God do it's fucking sick.

285
00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 3: It's a sick Yeah, the whole thing is sick.

286
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:00,480
Speaker 1: People.

287
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:05,119
Speaker 5: It's the greatest collection of douchebags gathered together anywhere in

288
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:08,879
Speaker 5: the world at that moment in time on the earth

289
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 5: of eight billion people floating in the universe.

290
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,800
Speaker 3: Which is rare because he said, was the greatest collection

291
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 3: of people with TDS Trump derangement syndrome in that room.

292
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:28,560
Speaker 5: You know, Trump derangement syndrome is something that doesn't exist.

293
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:32,919
Speaker 4: It's a label of honor.

294
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:38,240
Speaker 5: By a deranged man at his clinics, like all fascists,

295
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 5: if you oppose him, it's not a sign of his

296
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:46,480
Speaker 5: evil or incompetence, but our derangements. And so, because we

297
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:51,400
Speaker 5: don't think people should be locked up in cages hundreds

298
00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:55,640
Speaker 5: at a time, like a concentration camp, or in warehouses

299
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:59,639
Speaker 5: or any of the other depravities, were deranged just like

300
00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 5: in Soviet Russia, were in Nazi Germany. Right, But there

301
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:09,400
Speaker 5: were no people suffering from Trump derangement syndrome in that room.

302
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,840
Speaker 5: That was a cynical room, right, That is a that

303
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:19,119
Speaker 5: is a room of America's greatest cynics and bullshitters. And

304
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:22,200
Speaker 5: and my takeaway on it is is we have enormous

305
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:26,680
Speaker 5: reach on on our platforms, and I don't I don't

306
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 5: mean me and you singularly, I mean a broad sector

307
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:33,120
Speaker 5: of us. There needs to be the establishment of an

308
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 5: independent media association, and an independent media association needs to

309
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:45,199
Speaker 5: host the presidential debate. The independent media Association needs to

310
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:51,080
Speaker 5: set a framework for some of the leading platforms to

311
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:56,240
Speaker 5: be evolved in the presidential contests, because Trump has broken

312
00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 5: our politics in many institutions, but a bunch of the

313
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:05,199
Speaker 5: institutions he broke in the country include CBS News, ABC News,

314
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:11,600
Speaker 5: NBC News, and they have all lost their credibility. They

315
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 5: have all lost trust and most of not all, but

316
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:20,679
Speaker 5: most of the people who stand in front of a

317
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:26,120
Speaker 5: camera are not smart enough to understand the moment. They

318
00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:29,800
Speaker 5: are not deep enough to appreciate the danger.

319
00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:55,480
Speaker 3: Some sycophants. You know that extends out across the United

320
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:57,919
Speaker 3: States of America. I made reference to some of that

321
00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 3: depravity or earlier thirty nine thousand and five, one hundred people,

322
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:04,120
Speaker 3: human beings rounded up and summarily thrown into concentration camps

323
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:08,280
Speaker 3: detained reported as of the month of July twenty twenty six.

324
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,919
Speaker 3: In joining us to talk about that and Steven Miller

325
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,440
Speaker 3: and much much more. She is the host. She's an

326
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:18,679
Speaker 3: author actually two books, Against the Wall, Yes, My Journey

327
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 3: from Border Agent to Immigrant rights Activists and Ice What

328
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 3: Everybody needs to Know. She is the Emmy Award winning

329
00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:29,040
Speaker 3: HBO documentary filmmaker Critical Incident Death at the border. She

330
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:33,879
Speaker 3: is a former ICE agent and she is awesome. Please

331
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:37,440
Speaker 3: welcome to the program, Miss Jen bud Hi, Jen, how

332
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:38,680
Speaker 3: are you? Hi?

333
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:41,240
Speaker 6: Dean Hi Steve, Thank you so much. It's very kind

334
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:42,359
Speaker 6: introduction you gave me.

335
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, no problem, my pleasure. Steve. You've got a very

336
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:49,440
Speaker 3: deep understanding of border security, obviously being around when DHS

337
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:52,679
Speaker 3: was brought together, your deep understanding of the history of

338
00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:56,400
Speaker 3: our border, specifically the southern border. Why don't you take

339
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,639
Speaker 3: us in and then we can start asking Jen some

340
00:21:58,680 --> 00:21:59,960
Speaker 3: really important questions today.

341
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 5: I think that Jen has a familiarity with terrain that

342
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:13,160
Speaker 5: most Americans are not familiar with, and it's a border terrain,

343
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:19,080
Speaker 5: but also a border terrain in the philosophical sense where

344
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:25,440
Speaker 5: her integrity has been deeply tested and she stood alone

345
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:31,360
Speaker 5: and apart in the tradition of some real American heroes,

346
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:35,840
Speaker 5: in a category of people like Hugh Thompson, who paid

347
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:40,520
Speaker 5: a very high personal price to stop the Meli massacre

348
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 5: as a helicopter pilot, landing his ship and training his

349
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:51,600
Speaker 5: guns on the massacrering American soldiers in saving the Vietnamese

350
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:57,679
Speaker 5: villagers from their rampage. And when you look at the

351
00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 5: border patrol and you look get the history of the border,

352
00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:05,120
Speaker 5: and you understand the wildness.

353
00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 4: Of the border.

354
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:13,040
Speaker 5: Right there are boundaries that are laid out that are

355
00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:20,119
Speaker 5: very deep between humanity and inhumanity. This is a wild country.

356
00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:24,520
Speaker 5: George Patten was a captain in the Army in the

357
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:30,240
Speaker 5: nineteen aughts and still mapping the mountains outside of El Paso,

358
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:36,440
Speaker 5: still surveying them. It was unexplored country. That borderland, particularly

359
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:41,960
Speaker 5: in Texas, is the land of the Comanche. This is camenteria.

360
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:48,040
Speaker 5: This is a wild place. This was the last frontier

361
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:55,240
Speaker 5: of the frontier in America, and along that border there

362
00:23:55,280 --> 00:24:02,679
Speaker 5: have been periods of militarization, periods of openness, periods of

363
00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 5: low intensity guerrilla warfare, bandits where there has been a

364
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:15,360
Speaker 5: blending between the duty of a border patrol, the Texas Rangers,

365
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:19,520
Speaker 5: the US Army. And what has come out of the

366
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:26,119
Speaker 5: wash in twenty twenty six is a uniform poaramilitary dominated

367
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:32,159
Speaker 5: by Christian rights fanatics, chief among them Greg Bavino, a

368
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 5: perfect dark type of the whack job, as is the

369
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:40,479
Speaker 5: agent who killed the man in Maine with who forty

370
00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:45,240
Speaker 5: seven days of training and there's no more articulate voice

371
00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:51,320
Speaker 5: in America warning people about the culture, the danger and

372
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:56,159
Speaker 5: explaining the reasons why what is happening is happening than

373
00:24:56,280 --> 00:25:03,159
Speaker 5: Jen Budd and understanding this is of deep importance because

374
00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:09,800
Speaker 5: it should be what chalks the lines of what Democratic

375
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:14,639
Speaker 5: presidential candidates talk about, because it is what they must

376
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:18,400
Speaker 5: talk about, which is different from what the polsters tell

377
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 5: them what they need to talk about, which includes stupidity

378
00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 5: like words such as affordability that no one uses, as in,

379
00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 5: if you say affordability forty seven times and you don't

380
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:39,359
Speaker 5: talk about the exitgen crisis, the child sleeping on the floor,

381
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:44,240
Speaker 5: that's a winning strategy, and that is not a winning strategy.

382
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:48,080
Speaker 5: That is a losing strategy, and there is a catastrophic

383
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 5: strategy for the country. And so that's a long intro

384
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 5: from me of a person that needs to be introduced

385
00:25:56,280 --> 00:26:00,920
Speaker 5: to this audience because is a very important voice in

386
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:04,440
Speaker 5: this moment in time, who understands this region, who understands

387
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:09,560
Speaker 5: this agency. It has the couraging, the integrity and the

388
00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:12,919
Speaker 5: scars from telling the truth about it.

389
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:13,960
Speaker 4: Jen Budd, welcome.

390
00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:18,840
Speaker 6: Oh, that's an incredible introduction. Thank you so much, Steve.

391
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:23,480
Speaker 6: I appreciate that. I appreciate that, but were very well said.

392
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 5: Tell us about the Border Patrol of twenty twenty six.

393
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:32,200
Speaker 4: Why is it a threat to all of us?

394
00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:35,000
Speaker 6: Uh? The border patrol is a threat to all of

395
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:40,399
Speaker 6: us simply because it's been allowed to be this way since.

396
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:42,520
Speaker 6: I mean, you know, I was in in the mid

397
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 6: nineties to the early two thousands, left right before nine

398
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:49,080
Speaker 6: to eleven because of the corruption and the brutality and

399
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:52,320
Speaker 6: the cover ups I saw. And so everything that I

400
00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:55,200
Speaker 6: see going on right now in our cities, in Chicago

401
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:58,680
Speaker 6: and Minneapolis and elsewhere is everything that I experienced as

402
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:02,359
Speaker 6: an agent, but only on the southern border. And unfortunately,

403
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 6: what I see over and over again in speaking about

404
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:07,639
Speaker 6: the Democrats is that there really is no opposition to

405
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:13,680
Speaker 6: these agencies. There's no accountability in these agencies. You mentioned

406
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:19,600
Speaker 6: the film of HBO that some of my work is

407
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,200
Speaker 6: in and other people's work. Of course, I couldn't have

408
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:25,679
Speaker 6: done it by myself to out the illegal cover up

409
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:30,480
Speaker 6: teams that have existed down here for generations. And I

410
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:33,040
Speaker 6: knew about him as an agent, and then finally, over

411
00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:35,399
Speaker 6: the years, was able to say something about it and

412
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:38,439
Speaker 6: get this help, get this film created at won an

413
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:45,160
Speaker 6: Emmy and Senator Padilla, who is my Senator Democrat Alex Padia.

414
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:47,720
Speaker 6: He's in it saying this is awful, we need to

415
00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:50,719
Speaker 6: do something about it, and yet they won't talk about it.

416
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:54,240
Speaker 6: The current head of CBP, the Commissioner, Rodney Scott, is

417
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,200
Speaker 6: the one who did the cover up that the film

418
00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:00,280
Speaker 6: is discussing. And when you look at that film, watch

419
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:03,119
Speaker 6: that film, what you will see is exactly what you

420
00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:05,920
Speaker 6: see them doing in the Alex Pretty shooting. You see

421
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:09,760
Speaker 6: them doing it in the Rene Good shooting, and you

422
00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:12,480
Speaker 6: just it's a pattern in practice. People are like, wow,

423
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:15,159
Speaker 6: you must have inside information, and it's like, maybe some

424
00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:18,440
Speaker 6: of it's inside information, you know, like current, but most

425
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:21,080
Speaker 6: of it is just I've seen this played out. It's

426
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:23,920
Speaker 6: pattern and practice on how they get away with these crimes.

427
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:26,720
Speaker 6: In one hundred and two years, no Border Patrol agent

428
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:30,679
Speaker 6: has ever been successfully prosecuted for killing anybody, whether a

429
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:35,000
Speaker 6: United States citizen or migrant, and that's just insane and unfortunately,

430
00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:37,719
Speaker 6: what it does to people who are out there in

431
00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:42,560
Speaker 6: that uniform trying to protect the country, trying to enforce

432
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,560
Speaker 6: immigration laws and so forth, is that when they do

433
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:48,080
Speaker 6: get injured, like I have been injured as an agent

434
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:51,200
Speaker 6: by a smuggler before, is then people don't believe you

435
00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:53,880
Speaker 6: because of all these cover ups and all these laws.

436
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:58,120
Speaker 6: So what we're seeing now is basically what Democrats and

437
00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:01,280
Speaker 6: Republicans have felt was okay to happen within one hundred

438
00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:05,600
Speaker 6: miles of any land or water border barrier. Now come

439
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:09,080
Speaker 6: into your cities. And we've been warning for generations down

440
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:12,480
Speaker 6: here that this was going to happen, and nobody would

441
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:17,480
Speaker 6: listen to the generations of Latinos and indigenous people saying

442
00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 6: this is insane what they're doing to us. And they

443
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:25,400
Speaker 6: just took over after nine to eleven. Quite honestly, they

444
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:27,360
Speaker 6: gave them all the money in the world, didn't hold

445
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 6: anybody in immigration responsible for the nine to eleven terrorists

446
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:34,479
Speaker 6: coming in, and this is what they created. And so

447
00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:38,160
Speaker 6: people like me who were college educated and wanted to

448
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:40,760
Speaker 6: end up going to law school and things like that,

449
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:44,200
Speaker 6: you can't get into these agencies anymore. They are hiring

450
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 6: only the most uneducated, the most inexperienced. There are no

451
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:56,120
Speaker 6: psychological evaluations whatsoever. And they used third party private contractors

452
00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 6: to do background investigations and have routinely hired people with

453
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:05,560
Speaker 6: sex crimes adjudicated sex crimes in their background happens constantly.

454
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:07,120
Speaker 6: I can give you a whole list of Are you

455
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 6: a border drive I am not a lawyer. No, I

456
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:11,520
Speaker 6: did my forty year and then I never went back

457
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:13,800
Speaker 6: because I was so disgusted by the law after being

458
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:17,440
Speaker 6: in the border patrol. So yeah, yeah, but this is

459
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 6: par for the course. This is everything we've seen down

460
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 6: here for generations, quite honestly, but on steroids and blown up,

461
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:27,320
Speaker 6: and now it's going to be used against Americans, quite honestly.

462
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:29,720
Speaker 3: So there was this old adage. You know, Stephen, I

463
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:31,840
Speaker 3: were talking about ICE last week. You know, ICE used

464
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:35,000
Speaker 3: to wear the blue windbreaker. This is Ice on the back. Right.

465
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:38,200
Speaker 3: Now you've got ICE officers in full tackyear running around

466
00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:41,920
Speaker 3: hanging out of the back of military vehicles with AK

467
00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:45,960
Speaker 3: forty sevens and assault rifles and tear gas masks and helmets,

468
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:49,280
Speaker 3: the whole bit. You know, that's a real change for

469
00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:52,880
Speaker 3: you know, the common observer, right, someone like me, And

470
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:55,640
Speaker 3: so what we would just a common person, what I

471
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:58,840
Speaker 3: would say is like the real switchover from ICE being

472
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:02,200
Speaker 3: a homeland security or order agency happened with Trump. What

473
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 3: you're saying, no, no, no, no, These practices and patterns

474
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:08,000
Speaker 3: they've been in place and in practice for a long time.

475
00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:12,200
Speaker 3: Trump is just militarized, professionalized, and given these guys more

476
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 3: money than the fucking Navy.

477
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:16,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, and there is another aspect to Trump two point

478
00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:19,400
Speaker 6: zero that is different than we haven't seen before. So

479
00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:22,480
Speaker 6: what we've seen is the management of the Border Patrol.

480
00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:26,360
Speaker 6: Like former Chief Rodney Scott is now the commissioner of CBP.

481
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 6: Quite honestly, border patrol agents have no business being management

482
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:33,920
Speaker 6: in CBP. CBP involves trade and involves all sorts of

483
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 6: complicated things that border patrol just simply does not do.

484
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 6: The Border Patrol is the most paramilitary, It is the

485
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:43,520
Speaker 6: most violent, and is the most brutal. It ignores the

486
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,200
Speaker 6: US Constitution, and it has the cover up teams and

487
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:48,520
Speaker 6: gets away with all that. So you see when they

488
00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:52,240
Speaker 6: bring Rodney Scott into be the head of CBP, and

489
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:54,760
Speaker 6: they even brought another in the beginning, another border patrol

490
00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:58,080
Speaker 6: agent to be his deputy. What Trump is saying, what

491
00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:01,960
Speaker 6: Steven Miller is saying to to ICE and CBP, because

492
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:04,520
Speaker 6: we also did that with the ICE regional directors. We've

493
00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 6: replaced them with Border patrol chiefs. We've said we do

494
00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:10,160
Speaker 6: not trust you all. And for the longest time, I

495
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:13,080
Speaker 6: would say, in the border patrol. Internally, the way that

496
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:17,360
Speaker 6: we as agents looked at those other immigration agencies was like,

497
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:20,520
Speaker 6: you guys are tough enough, You're not like us. And

498
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:22,640
Speaker 6: so what you've seen is what I call the border

499
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:27,880
Speaker 6: patrolification of all these agencies, including USCIS, which is the

500
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:31,240
Speaker 6: agency that wasn't even law enforcement that now is law

501
00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:35,600
Speaker 6: enforcement under Trump now being used and instead of processing

502
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:38,280
Speaker 6: people's applications who are trying to do it the legal way,

503
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 6: they're just taking their applications, sitting on it until the

504
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,800
Speaker 6: people run out of their status, and then handing the

505
00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:47,520
Speaker 6: documents over to Ice to get them. So we have

506
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:51,040
Speaker 6: seen him. He has done a lot, but the steps

507
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:54,240
Speaker 6: to get here were all set in place by both

508
00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:55,320
Speaker 6: sides of the aisle.

509
00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:57,320
Speaker 3: Unfortunately, I.

510
00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:03,160
Speaker 5: Feel like I know exactly what to do here. Right

511
00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:07,560
Speaker 5: when there's a next democratic president and Congress, what has

512
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:10,200
Speaker 5: to happen, and so there's going to be a lot

513
00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:14,440
Speaker 5: of Project twenty twenty nine talk. And I don't like

514
00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:19,520
Speaker 5: the idea of building on Trump's depravity and obscenity with

515
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:23,400
Speaker 5: a democratic version of it. I think it's much better

516
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:28,600
Speaker 5: idea to have a new deal sensibility. Hundreds of pieces

517
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:31,880
Speaker 5: of legislation are going to have to be passed in

518
00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:37,240
Speaker 5: regular order, and when it comes to the Department of

519
00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 5: Homeland Security, it needs to be broken up. You had

520
00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:45,800
Speaker 5: nine senators that had the wisdom in the aftermath of

521
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:50,360
Speaker 5: nine to eleven to see what it would become. Ted

522
00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:54,400
Speaker 5: Kennedy was one of them. Jim Jeffords of Vermont was

523
00:33:54,440 --> 00:34:00,320
Speaker 5: one of them. The iconoclastic Republican and the agency to

524
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:07,080
Speaker 5: be the department needs to be broken up. We need

525
00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:14,120
Speaker 5: to have a border security agency, and we should rename

526
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:21,239
Speaker 5: the Border Security Agency as the US Border Security Agency,

527
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:25,000
Speaker 5: and it will have a symmetrical name as the Canadian

528
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:33,120
Speaker 5: Border Security Agency. And it should be completely demilitarized in

529
00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:38,319
Speaker 5: terms of its equipment, in terms of its weapons. And

530
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:45,520
Speaker 5: every single person who was hired between the inauguration of

531
00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:49,640
Speaker 5: Trump and his last hour of office is out on

532
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:54,680
Speaker 5: day one. Badge on the box in the left, gun

533
00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:59,360
Speaker 5: on the box in the right, thank you for your service,

534
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:06,520
Speaker 5: look forward to your investigation. And from that point on,

535
00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:12,320
Speaker 5: the Border Patrol uniform can be visited at the Museum

536
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:18,239
Speaker 5: of Tolerance. In the short term, as this new agency

537
00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:22,239
Speaker 5: has stood up, which will take at least two years.

538
00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:29,359
Speaker 5: The US military should take control of the border from

539
00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:32,680
Speaker 5: a security area, and that should be done with national

540
00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:37,320
Speaker 5: Guard forces. And frankly, if I was a Democratic president,

541
00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:42,160
Speaker 5: those national Guard forces will come from Mississippi in Alabama

542
00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:46,239
Speaker 5: and South Carolina and Texas, and they'll deploy to the

543
00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 5: southern border as a part of a task force. And

544
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:56,880
Speaker 5: I would recall from retirement to active duty General Russell Honore,

545
00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:00,920
Speaker 5: and I would promote him to a force or command,

546
00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:04,879
Speaker 5: and I would put him in charge of it, and

547
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:09,239
Speaker 5: I would give him a clear mandate to clean up

548
00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:14,759
Speaker 5: and to professionalize this shit show. That would be my plan, right,

549
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,680
Speaker 5: that would be That would be the basic structure of

550
00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:18,280
Speaker 5: my plan.

551
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:19,480
Speaker 4: What do you think about that?

552
00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:22,640
Speaker 6: You know, one of the things I say is that

553
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:26,640
Speaker 6: you know, during the last ten years, the concept of

554
00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:30,319
Speaker 6: open borders versus closed borders has come about and Democrats

555
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:32,680
Speaker 6: have no kind of response to it. And what I

556
00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:35,840
Speaker 6: often say is that a closed border is as dangerous

557
00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:39,799
Speaker 6: as an open border. So a lot of people on

558
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:41,799
Speaker 6: the left would like me because of the things that

559
00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:43,920
Speaker 6: I've seen sit there and say we should just have

560
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:46,360
Speaker 6: open borders. But I have also seen some of the

561
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:48,840
Speaker 6: bad things that come across that border, and so I

562
00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:51,520
Speaker 6: am not all the way here at the same time,

563
00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:54,640
Speaker 6: when you close the border like we did at the

564
00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:57,480
Speaker 6: end of Trump one point zero and then into the

565
00:36:57,480 --> 00:37:00,520
Speaker 6: first three years of Biden, every border betray agent and

566
00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,480
Speaker 6: CBP agent knows what that causes is then a rush

567
00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:07,560
Speaker 6: in between the ports to create what they termed an invasion,

568
00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:10,600
Speaker 6: which was essentially they created it on purpose. If you

569
00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:14,280
Speaker 6: close the avenues to come in legally and not inspect people,

570
00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:18,080
Speaker 6: they will cross illegally. And what we have right now

571
00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:21,040
Speaker 6: is we do have the military down here on the border,

572
00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:23,880
Speaker 6: but they are under strict orders not to talk and

573
00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:27,239
Speaker 6: not to report, and so what we see is they're

574
00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:31,120
Speaker 6: claiming that nobody's crossing illegally simply because Trump is in charge,

575
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:34,160
Speaker 6: and that simply is not true. And so what you

576
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:37,800
Speaker 6: have in a closed border situation is you have politicians

577
00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:41,120
Speaker 6: in the agency then lying and saying, oh, nobody's getting through,

578
00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:45,120
Speaker 6: everything sealed, everything shut, and that just simply is not true.

579
00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:49,200
Speaker 6: People who have been arrested in the mass deportation and

580
00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:54,600
Speaker 6: deported back to Mexico are all already are already back

581
00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:58,000
Speaker 6: in the United States, and so they're just simply lying

582
00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:00,719
Speaker 6: to people and not reporting the truth. At the same time,

583
00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:04,720
Speaker 6: when you do close the legal avenues, then you cannot

584
00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:07,279
Speaker 6: inspect people who need to come in or who want

585
00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:09,600
Speaker 6: to come in for a variety of different reasons, and

586
00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:11,600
Speaker 6: like I said, they will cross illegally, and then you

587
00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:15,480
Speaker 6: don't know who is in the country at all. I

588
00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:18,360
Speaker 6: want to be clear that the Border Patrol and CBP

589
00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:21,360
Speaker 6: have not caught any terrorists trying to enter the country,

590
00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:23,520
Speaker 6: or Border Patrol at least has not, even though they

591
00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:25,480
Speaker 6: claim they have. They've caught people that they say are

592
00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:29,839
Speaker 6: on their terrorists watch lists, but they have never prosecuted anybody,

593
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:32,480
Speaker 6: and so we do need to rethink this. What we've

594
00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:36,840
Speaker 6: allowed these agencies to do is tell everybody that everybody

595
00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:39,279
Speaker 6: coming in is a criminal, and that just simply is

596
00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:42,560
Speaker 6: not true. And in fact, Border Patrol agents and CBP

597
00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:45,960
Speaker 6: agents are arrested at a higher rate for more violent

598
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:49,279
Speaker 6: crimes than the people that they are arresting and apprehending

599
00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:52,719
Speaker 6: nearly almost every single day. It's not to say that

600
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:56,080
Speaker 6: they don't arrest people that should be arrested and dealt with.

601
00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:56,680
Speaker 4: They do.

602
00:38:57,280 --> 00:39:00,719
Speaker 6: But when you look at the crimes that they committing

603
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:02,960
Speaker 6: and the lies that they are telling the public like

604
00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:05,600
Speaker 6: one of the ways you know that is like they've

605
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:07,839
Speaker 6: been saying this whole time, for this mass deportation, we're

606
00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:09,960
Speaker 6: going after the worst of the worst. But what we

607
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:12,120
Speaker 6: see is they're going after children. And what we see

608
00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:15,640
Speaker 6: is they're stalking people in airports. What we see is

609
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:19,560
Speaker 6: they're getting moms and dads and this and that's this

610
00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:22,960
Speaker 6: is about money. This is about power for the management

611
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:25,160
Speaker 6: that is in charge, and they are lying to the

612
00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:29,240
Speaker 6: American public and we are creat we are committing horrible

613
00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:33,120
Speaker 6: human rights violations that if any other country was doing,

614
00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:34,839
Speaker 6: we would say, oh, we have to go bomb them,

615
00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:36,759
Speaker 6: and we have to save these people. We are doing

616
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:41,440
Speaker 6: it here ourselves, and unfortunately the Democrats haven't been willing

617
00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:43,600
Speaker 6: to stand up for it. But there's a lot of

618
00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:49,080
Speaker 6: people out there that have really great ideas that they

619
00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:51,480
Speaker 6: just don't get time on television. They don't get time

620
00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:55,520
Speaker 6: on cable news, and unfortunately the politicians don't listen to them.

621
00:39:55,719 --> 00:40:00,319
Speaker 6: They only listen to the people within the agencies, who

622
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:03,000
Speaker 6: then have the revolving door and get to turn around.

623
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:06,320
Speaker 6: Like a good example of that is Chief Carla Provos.

624
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:08,640
Speaker 6: She was our first female chief in the border patrol

625
00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:12,160
Speaker 6: under Donald Trump's first administration, and she's the one that

626
00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:15,560
Speaker 6: took children, she separated from their asylum seeking parents whose

627
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:20,960
Speaker 6: only crime was coming to seek asylum. And when she resigned,

628
00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:23,920
Speaker 6: she immediately went and became an executive director of a

629
00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:27,399
Speaker 6: shelter for unaccompanied children. And this happens over and over

630
00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:30,840
Speaker 6: and over again. We see ICE directors. Tay Johnson is

631
00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:36,000
Speaker 6: he was an acting ICE director in the past administrations.

632
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:40,279
Speaker 6: He's now advising sheriffs and other people on how to

633
00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:46,040
Speaker 6: create these massive ice warehouse concentration camps for people and stuff.

634
00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:48,360
Speaker 6: So we see this revolving door and people are just

635
00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:52,920
Speaker 6: making money like you wouldn't believe. It's just huge. And

636
00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:55,960
Speaker 6: the reality is is we need to have a robust

637
00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:59,200
Speaker 6: asylum system because an asylum system in a country like

638
00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:02,879
Speaker 6: ours is a national security issue, and without it, then

639
00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:06,239
Speaker 6: you lack national security. We need to inspect people when

640
00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:08,400
Speaker 6: they come in. If we have a reason not to

641
00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:10,920
Speaker 6: allow them to come in, then find we can adjudicate

642
00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:13,360
Speaker 6: that and we can deal with that. But if you

643
00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:16,600
Speaker 6: allow people to have a legal avenue with which they

644
00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:20,319
Speaker 6: can be inspected, then they will do that. And then

645
00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:23,040
Speaker 6: the people who are crossing in between the ports who

646
00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:28,000
Speaker 6: are an afaris who are trying to other agency can

647
00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:28,960
Speaker 6: deal with that.

648
00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:42,840
Speaker 5: First the country legally through the airports. It takes place

649
00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:47,920
Speaker 5: on visa over stays. And so this entire debate is

650
00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:53,840
Speaker 5: fantastical on fifty seven different levels, three hundred and sixty

651
00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:58,719
Speaker 5: five days a year, and we're a country of immigrants.

652
00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:05,319
Speaker 5: Immigration is important. We need immigration economically competitively, we need

653
00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:08,719
Speaker 5: the reform or immigration system. The last thing I'll say

654
00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:12,240
Speaker 5: about it is I've been an advocate for my entire

655
00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:15,240
Speaker 5: political career, and as someone who worked for John McCain

656
00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:20,480
Speaker 5: and George W. Bush for common sense immigration reform, I've

657
00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:24,560
Speaker 5: watched this issue be used as a political football by

658
00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:31,200
Speaker 5: both sides, by senators and presidents and both parties, and

659
00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:36,760
Speaker 5: it is not a happy tale of idealism, to say

660
00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:41,799
Speaker 5: the least. But I need everybody to understand something politically,

661
00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:47,400
Speaker 5: in an idiocracy, if you take away all of the

662
00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:52,279
Speaker 5: nuance and all of the complexity of the debate, and

663
00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:57,200
Speaker 5: the choice that's left for the American people framed by

664
00:42:57,200 --> 00:43:02,400
Speaker 5: a demagogue is everybody out or everybody can come in.

665
00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:10,239
Speaker 5: The decision every fucking time is going to be everybody out.

666
00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:15,880
Speaker 5: And if you don't understand that at a human level,

667
00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:19,840
Speaker 5: Right if you don't appreciate that, during the height of

668
00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:23,840
Speaker 5: the nineteen thirties, the majority of Jews did not want

669
00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:29,799
Speaker 5: Jews immigrating to the United States, Right, if you don't

670
00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:35,560
Speaker 5: understand why so many Hispanics voted for Trump, so many

671
00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:42,560
Speaker 5: second generation immigrants voted for Trump twelve years in get

672
00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:43,600
Speaker 5: out of politics?

673

Speaker 6: Or yeah, yeah, and.

Speaker 3: Jen Bud Borderlands Talk substack YouTube is where you can

697
00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:09,880
Speaker 3: find her former Rice of Patrol agent. You said that

698
00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:13,040
Speaker 3: many times, Steve. You know, Ice is just, you know,

699
00:45:13,160 --> 00:45:15,960
Speaker 3: something that should have been should have been disbanded a

700
00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:19,040
Speaker 3: long time ago, needs to be disbanded. Box on the right,

701
00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:21,680
Speaker 3: box on the left, one for your gun, one for

702
00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:24,399
Speaker 3: your badge. This is an organization that has never had

703
00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:26,600
Speaker 3: the best interests of the United States or the people

704
00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:29,680
Speaker 3: in it in mind. And as we as we move

705
00:45:29,719 --> 00:45:32,840
Speaker 3: towards twenty twenty six, you should be gimmes right. You

706
00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:35,200
Speaker 3: know the idea that thirty nine thousand, five hundred people

707
00:45:35,239 --> 00:45:38,240
Speaker 3: got locked up last month, the children eating maggot filled bread,

708
00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:41,600
Speaker 3: that grandparents that that have been here for twenty five

709
00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:46,200
Speaker 3: years from El Salvador sleeping under tinfoil blankets should be

710
00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:48,479
Speaker 3: a gimmey. It should be a gimmey. The Epstein file

711
00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:50,720
Speaker 3: should be a gimmey. The Warner and should be a gimmy.

712
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:54,000
Speaker 3: But the New York Times put out a piece this

713
00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:57,360
Speaker 3: week and you wrote about it. Steve Schmidt's the warning.

714
00:45:57,360 --> 00:46:00,239
Speaker 3: Everybody needs to go and read this piece on Ken

715
00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:04,240
Speaker 3: Martin in the state of the Democratic Party. And again,

716
00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:06,640
Speaker 3: all of these things we're talking about should be gimmes.

717
00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:10,439
Speaker 3: Double digit leads and so many different districts and precincts

718
00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:14,680
Speaker 3: for Democrats, anybody but Mega, anybody but Donald Trump. And

719
00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:16,719
Speaker 3: it's still a fifty to fifty. It's still a toss

720
00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:19,759
Speaker 3: up in so many ways. And I ran in this

721
00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:25,000
Speaker 3: New York Times piece that the Democratic Party is broke

722
00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:29,120
Speaker 3: effectively to their name in terms of assets. They've got

723
00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:32,439
Speaker 3: two million dollars in debt. Ken Martin in the sub

724
00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:35,560
Speaker 3: stack the other day tweeted, ah, guys, so we're primed

725
00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:41,200
Speaker 3: and ready for the midterms. We're set up for sustainable success. Meanwhile,

726
00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:42,920
Speaker 3: on the other side of the aisle, Trump and Mega

727
00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:45,200
Speaker 3: have one hundred and twenty eight million dollars in cash

728
00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:49,600
Speaker 3: on hand, and they are feckless. The infighting is incredible.

729
00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:52,960
Speaker 3: And you were out that that the Democratic Party might

730
00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:56,160
Speaker 3: be Mega's greatest asset going into the midterms. Tell me

731
00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:58,080
Speaker 3: about that. Let's talk about that a little bit.

732
00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:07,000
Speaker 5: Time to time to face some tough realities. This Grand

733
00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:14,600
Speaker 5: Platiner debacle in Maine. It's a winnable seat. And we

734
00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:25,680
Speaker 5: have frivolous children vandalizing processes in a moment of deep

735
00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:26,920
Speaker 5: crisis for this.

736
00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:28,880
Speaker 4: Country, for the United States.

737
00:47:30,320 --> 00:47:35,640
Speaker 5: And I love my country very very much, and I'm

738
00:47:35,680 --> 00:47:44,759
Speaker 5: deeply worried about its future. And Donald Trump has won

739
00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:54,600
Speaker 5: two out of three elections against Democrats. And what happened

740
00:47:54,640 --> 00:48:01,440
Speaker 5: in twenty twenty four was a national disaster, catastrophe, and

741
00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:05,359
Speaker 5: it came from the selfishness of an old man in

742
00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:12,440
Speaker 5: his ambitious family who were cashing in. It couldn't function.

743
00:48:14,360 --> 00:48:19,160
Speaker 5: And so two out of three times, this is incredible.

744
00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:29,680
Speaker 5: Here's your autopsy. The most prolific liar since Goebels and

745
00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:34,479
Speaker 5: Hitler was twice elected by the American people, who thought

746
00:48:34,520 --> 00:48:40,839
Speaker 5: he was the more honest candidate, more honest about Biden's senility,

747
00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:47,400
Speaker 5: about his fitness, about the economy, and about the border.

748
00:48:49,120 --> 00:48:54,920
Speaker 5: Even today, the Democratic Party is viewed by a majority

749
00:48:54,960 --> 00:48:57,719
Speaker 5: of Americans in the Maga era when they're fully in

750
00:48:57,840 --> 00:49:04,480
Speaker 5: charges the more extreme party. It's extraordinary, the depth of

751
00:49:04,520 --> 00:49:09,920
Speaker 5: the failure, the magnitude of it, the fecklessness of a

752
00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:14,520
Speaker 5: Chuck Schumer is inability to communicate, to meet the moment.

753
00:49:15,120 --> 00:49:20,640
Speaker 5: Ken Martin, the man depicted in the story the four

754
00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:23,680
Speaker 5: hundred People of the DNC, a great nation of three

755
00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:27,160
Speaker 5: hundred and fifty million people held hostage by four hundred,

756
00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:31,080
Speaker 5: four hundred weirdos in their committees.

757
00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:33,800
Speaker 4: And their pronounce.

758
00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:43,360
Speaker 5: And John Kennedy posed the question the purpose of a

759
00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:48,960
Speaker 5: political party if it doesn't serve the nation? And we're

760
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:53,880
Speaker 5: losing the country because of the failure of the Democratic Party.

761
00:49:54,040 --> 00:49:57,480
Speaker 5: And by the way, here we go again, and I

762
00:49:57,520 --> 00:50:02,040
Speaker 5: want to explain something very clearly. Twenty twenty four cycle began.

763
00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:08,759
Speaker 5: The state of New Hampshire has always gone first in

764
00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:15,040
Speaker 5: the primary process, and the reason for that historically was

765
00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:18,320
Speaker 5: because New Hampshire in the Progressive era, was the first

766
00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:23,359
Speaker 5: to embrace a progressive idea, which was that citizens should

767
00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:25,920
Speaker 5: be able to have a say in the primary process

768
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:29,120
Speaker 5: and thus vote, and New Hampshire thus gave people the

769
00:50:29,160 --> 00:50:33,719
Speaker 5: ability to have a say in a presidential primary as

770
00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:36,400
Speaker 5: opposed to it playing out in the back room in

771
00:50:36,480 --> 00:50:42,120
Speaker 5: nineteen twenty. That's why New Hampshire goes first. There's a

772
00:50:42,239 --> 00:50:50,640
Speaker 5: tradition that comes out of a democracy reform. Now, Joe

773
00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:57,960
Speaker 5: Biden did not do well in New Hampshire historically, and

774
00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:04,360
Speaker 5: so what was Joe Biden's REI and his people, Jim Clyburn,

775
00:51:05,440 --> 00:51:09,239
Speaker 5: I'm going to take it away from you because it's

776
00:51:09,280 --> 00:51:15,319
Speaker 5: bad for Biden because he's not up to par. He

777
00:51:15,360 --> 00:51:19,440
Speaker 5: can't do it, can't talk, can't survive the town hall

778
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:21,759
Speaker 5: meetings and the expectations of the.

779
00:51:21,640 --> 00:51:24,480
Speaker 4: Town meeting in the New England environment.

780
00:51:26,360 --> 00:51:28,640
Speaker 5: And so it was taken away. And the reason it

781
00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:33,000
Speaker 5: was taken away that was given too many white people

782
00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:39,560
Speaker 5: in New Hampshire. Now in the aftermath that have lost election, right,

783
00:51:40,160 --> 00:51:43,919
Speaker 5: there'll be wonderment about why white working class voters here

784
00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:49,160
Speaker 5: and there feel alienated from the Democratic Party. Too many

785
00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:53,640
Speaker 5: white people in New Hampshire, according to Jim Clybern, So

786
00:51:53,719 --> 00:51:57,239
Speaker 5: it's got to go to South Carolina because there's a

787
00:51:57,239 --> 00:52:03,880
Speaker 5: black voting electorate in South Carolin Carolina. Okay, too many

788
00:52:03,920 --> 00:52:11,080
Speaker 5: white people black people in South Carolina. So now the

789
00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:16,800
Speaker 5: cradle of the Confederacy the home state of Lindsey Graham

790
00:52:16,880 --> 00:52:22,319
Speaker 5: and Nancy Mayce and strom Thurmond, and all the segregation

791
00:52:22,520 --> 00:52:24,479
Speaker 5: is they got to go first. I have a better idea.

792
00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:28,160
Speaker 5: I think they should go last, right. And I have

793
00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:31,960
Speaker 5: an even better idea. I think the Democratic Party should

794
00:52:32,120 --> 00:52:36,600
Speaker 5: support the exceptional black US Senate candidates in Louisiana and

795
00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:39,920
Speaker 5: Mississippi and make at least the pretense of an attempt

796
00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:44,160
Speaker 5: again to be a national party. But I digress too much.

797
00:52:44,160 --> 00:52:47,440
Speaker 5: At any rate, let me bite down on the question

798
00:52:47,520 --> 00:52:50,239
Speaker 5: of why there's so many white people in New Hampshire.

799
00:52:51,600 --> 00:52:54,520
Speaker 5: The answer to that question is there was never slavery

800
00:52:54,560 --> 00:52:59,520
Speaker 5: in New Hampshire and there was never industry in New Hampshire.

801
00:53:00,640 --> 00:53:07,879
Speaker 5: So when black Americans fled by the millions in one

802
00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:12,719
Speaker 5: of the greatest population migrations in human history inside a

803
00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:18,680
Speaker 5: nation between nineteen oh five and nineteen fifteen and nineteen twenty,

804
00:53:19,520 --> 00:53:22,200
Speaker 5: they came to Detroit, they came to New York. They

805
00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:26,520
Speaker 5: came to the northern urban cities that were being industrialized,

806
00:53:27,239 --> 00:53:29,160
Speaker 5: where the factories were being built.

807
00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:34,239
Speaker 4: And that story of.

808
00:53:34,360 --> 00:53:40,400
Speaker 5: Black migration is fundamental to the story of the twentieth

809
00:53:40,440 --> 00:53:46,160
Speaker 5: century and civil rights progress. Now, if you go to

810
00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:51,680
Speaker 5: the New Hampshire Capital has one of the largest collections

811
00:53:51,719 --> 00:53:56,759
Speaker 5: of battle flags anywhere in the country, with some of

812
00:53:56,800 --> 00:54:01,239
Speaker 5: the cases that these flags are behind and last opened

813
00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:07,080
Speaker 5: in nineteen seventeen, nineteen eighteen, and the curators think that

814
00:54:07,160 --> 00:54:12,880
Speaker 5: any contact with oxygen with air will disintegrate the flags.

815
00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:18,000
Speaker 5: They're that fragile, and everybody remembers I think of a

816
00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:23,040
Speaker 5: certain age the movie Glory. The movie Glory told the

817
00:54:23,120 --> 00:54:28,759
Speaker 5: story of the fifty fourth Regiment of the Massachusetts Infantry,

818
00:54:29,760 --> 00:54:34,840
Speaker 5: which led the attack heroically and famously in South Carolina

819
00:54:36,239 --> 00:54:40,799
Speaker 5: against Fort Wagner, the Confederate fort and the fifty fourth

820
00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:48,360
Speaker 5: Massachusetts was the concept and idea an achievement of Frederick Douglas,

821
00:54:49,360 --> 00:54:52,720
Speaker 5: among others. Two of his sons served in the fifty

822
00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:59,880
Speaker 5: fourth Massachusetts Colored Regiment. This is the movie that More

823
00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:06,120
Speaker 5: Freeman is in, that a young young Denzel Washington is in,

824
00:55:08,640 --> 00:55:16,279
Speaker 5: Matthew Broderick is in, and at the end you will

825
00:55:16,320 --> 00:55:22,880
Speaker 5: see men who are making way as the fifty fourth

826
00:55:23,000 --> 00:55:27,879
Speaker 5: Massachusetts proven in combat, a hardened, disciplined force takes its

827
00:55:27,920 --> 00:55:36,319
Speaker 5: place in history and leads the charge. And the men

828
00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:43,440
Speaker 5: who are in that movie depicted as cheering them forward

829
00:55:45,600 --> 00:55:50,160
Speaker 5: we're New Hampshire men in real life, in their flag

830
00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:56,280
Speaker 5: is in the case in the capital, in the state

831
00:55:58,120 --> 00:56:03,600
Speaker 5: that's too white to maintain its first in the Nation status,

832
00:56:04,840 --> 00:56:11,719
Speaker 5: though its sons died in an industrial scale next to their

833
00:56:12,600 --> 00:56:19,800
Speaker 5: black brothers to set men free, and their deaths matter

834
00:56:20,960 --> 00:56:25,280
Speaker 5: as much as the death of the soldier in Afghanistan

835
00:56:25,560 --> 00:56:30,120
Speaker 5: and Iraq, and as much as those omitted soldiers in Iran.

836
00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:35,799
Speaker 5: So I reject the argument completely that this is grounds

837
00:56:37,120 --> 00:56:41,440
Speaker 5: to take the New Hampshire primary away. The Democratic Party,

838
00:56:42,480 --> 00:56:47,640
Speaker 5: in an era of lawlessness, maintains it is the rule

839
00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:54,200
Speaker 5: of law party. New Hampshire is the only state that

840
00:56:54,360 --> 00:56:59,080
Speaker 5: has a state law that says our state must go first.

841
00:56:59,120 --> 00:57:08,920
Speaker 5: And the Democrats and Republican presidential primary voting process. What

842
00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:13,080
Speaker 5: the Democrats did to begin the twenty twenty four election

843
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:17,040
Speaker 5: under the leadership of Jamie Harrison, who's one of the

844
00:57:17,200 --> 00:57:21,960
Speaker 5: architects of trying to put the primary back in South

845
00:57:21,960 --> 00:57:30,760
Speaker 5: Carolina again away from New Hampshire using the same racialized reason. Right,

846
00:57:31,080 --> 00:57:35,560
Speaker 5: the architect of that foolish decision.

847
00:57:36,480 --> 00:57:36,959
Speaker 4: Get it.

848
00:57:39,600 --> 00:57:43,200
Speaker 5: Running against Donald Trump demanding a state break its own

849
00:57:43,320 --> 00:57:48,960
Speaker 5: law to comply with DNC rules or face punishment in

850
00:57:49,040 --> 00:57:54,280
Speaker 5: the name of Joe Biden. You see the problem. You

851
00:57:54,320 --> 00:57:59,840
Speaker 5: see the problem right. So what the Democratic Party needs

852
00:57:59,840 --> 00:58:02,320
Speaker 5: to be is the party that calls its young men

853
00:58:02,360 --> 00:58:06,400
Speaker 5: black and white and Hispanic, in Asian and Tamil and

854
00:58:06,520 --> 00:58:10,160
Speaker 5: Hindu and from all over the world, whatever race or

855
00:58:10,200 --> 00:58:13,760
Speaker 5: creed they may be Americans, all to service of their country.

856
00:58:14,280 --> 00:58:15,840
Speaker 4: In the manner of John Kennedy.

857
00:58:16,480 --> 00:58:23,040
Speaker 5: Democratic Party has to face squarely the unbelievable, malicious concentrations

858
00:58:23,080 --> 00:58:27,520
Speaker 5: of power that have taken root and break them up.

859
00:58:28,360 --> 00:58:31,040
Speaker 5: The Democratic Party has to deal with the consequences of

860
00:58:31,080 --> 00:58:34,720
Speaker 5: a failed war where black boys and white boys are

861
00:58:34,760 --> 00:58:38,840
Speaker 5: getting killed together, and black women and white women and

862
00:58:38,960 --> 00:58:42,720
Speaker 5: Hispanic women are serving and getting killed together, and the

863
00:58:42,840 --> 00:58:46,640
Speaker 5: media is lying about it and covering it up. We

864
00:58:46,720 --> 00:58:50,040
Speaker 5: have serious issues in this country. And the New Hampshire

865
00:58:50,080 --> 00:58:55,880
Speaker 5: Primary is the last place in this country where an

866
00:58:56,000 --> 00:58:59,880
Speaker 5: unknown presidential candidate can get in their car and starting

867
00:59:00,080 --> 00:59:04,120
Speaker 5: in town halls and get ahead of scheme and a

868
00:59:04,160 --> 00:59:07,600
Speaker 5: little notoriety and go on to become president of the

869
00:59:07,720 --> 00:59:11,920
Speaker 5: United States like a Bill Clinton. It is an indispensable

870
00:59:12,480 --> 00:59:19,680
Speaker 5: Americ Ken tradition defined as too white by a party,

871
00:59:19,840 --> 00:59:26,040
Speaker 5: brought law by its adherents to all of this divisive

872
00:59:26,240 --> 00:59:31,200
Speaker 5: bullshit that's been rejected so soundly that the repairman the

873
00:59:31,240 --> 00:59:34,880
Speaker 5: American people hired to burn it fucking down was Donald Trump.

874
00:59:35,480 --> 00:59:38,920
Speaker 5: These people are so fucking stupid, there's not a word

875
00:59:39,000 --> 01:00:04,120
Speaker 5: for it. And and the Democratic candidates who are going

876
01:00:04,160 --> 01:00:08,520
Speaker 5: to run for president, John McCain never really understood right

877
01:00:08,560 --> 01:00:12,040
Speaker 5: that before he became president, as the nominee was the

878
01:00:12,080 --> 01:00:12,920
Speaker 5: head of the party.

879
01:00:13,680 --> 01:00:15,400
Speaker 4: He didn't know that came with the job.

880
01:00:15,640 --> 01:00:19,200
Speaker 5: It was really a strange thing, right, And I don't

881
01:00:19,200 --> 01:00:22,680
Speaker 5: take it for granted anymore. If you're running to be president,

882
01:00:22,760 --> 01:00:26,760
Speaker 5: you're running to be the leader of a very, very

883
01:00:26,800 --> 01:00:30,280
Speaker 5: broken and broke party that's run by fucked up people,

884
01:00:32,440 --> 01:00:37,120
Speaker 5: and they're losers, and they're incompetent, and they're leaving Senate

885
01:00:37,160 --> 01:00:40,600
Speaker 5: seats on the table, and they've turned a great national

886
01:00:40,640 --> 01:00:43,640
Speaker 5: party into a regional party, and they're not doing jack

887
01:00:43,680 --> 01:00:49,120
Speaker 5: shitt for two black candidates in Louisiana and Mississippi. You know,

888
01:00:49,320 --> 01:00:54,120
Speaker 5: MegaR Evers buried in Arlington, whose name plate was removed

889
01:00:54,120 --> 01:00:56,800
Speaker 5: so he can't find the grave anymore. Such was his

890
01:00:56,960 --> 01:01:01,720
Speaker 5: patriotism that MegaR Evers for going on TV and telling

891
01:01:01,840 --> 01:01:04,440
Speaker 5: the story of how blacks lived in the South. He

892
01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:10,280
Speaker 5: wanted the word Mississippi spelled out on his grave that

893
01:01:10,320 --> 01:01:14,000
Speaker 5: he knew he was headed to Mississippi. That's what MegaR Evers'

894
01:01:14,040 --> 01:01:18,160
Speaker 5: grave says. And there's a black prosecutor, Na's Scott column

895
01:01:18,200 --> 01:01:24,000
Speaker 5: running in Mississippi. He's the invisible man in Washington, DC

896
01:01:24,160 --> 01:01:26,720
Speaker 5: at a national party. This says, we got to take

897
01:01:26,760 --> 01:01:29,640
Speaker 5: away the New Hampshire primary because it's too white.

898
01:01:31,480 --> 01:01:32,480
Speaker 4: The fuck out of here.

899
01:01:34,800 --> 01:01:37,840
Speaker 3: A lot of history there that dictates that this is

900
01:01:37,840 --> 01:01:40,560
Speaker 3: a snake eating his fucking tail, right, you know, I

901
01:01:40,920 --> 01:01:43,880
Speaker 3: just the way you've explained it what I read in

902
01:01:43,920 --> 01:01:46,280
Speaker 3: the New York Times Ken Martin's piece trying to trick

903
01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:49,360
Speaker 3: himself and everybody around him into thinking that everything's going

904
01:01:49,400 --> 01:01:52,080
Speaker 3: to be tickety boo because Donald Trump sucks. Donald Trump

905
01:01:52,120 --> 01:01:54,600
Speaker 3: has sucks so hard he's beat him twice to your point, right,

906
01:01:54,720 --> 01:01:57,400
Speaker 3: you know, we watch those outtakes from the White House correspondence.

907
01:01:57,400 --> 01:02:02,320
Speaker 3: They're complete inanity, total rambling, absolute lunacy. That was the

908
01:02:02,360 --> 01:02:05,920
Speaker 3: best option watching that in Clipville, going this is the

909
01:02:05,920 --> 01:02:08,360
Speaker 3: best option that the United States has because the Democratic

910
01:02:08,400 --> 01:02:10,640
Speaker 3: parties had fucked up. And then when I read your piece.

911
01:02:10,680 --> 01:02:12,240
Speaker 3: Then I went back to the New York Times piece,

912
01:02:12,240 --> 01:02:14,880
Speaker 3: the original reporting of it. I thought to myself, how

913
01:02:14,880 --> 01:02:18,080
Speaker 3: the fuck do you win the mid terms with negative

914
01:02:18,120 --> 01:02:20,320
Speaker 3: two million dollars in the bank when the other guy's

915
01:02:20,320 --> 01:02:24,680
Speaker 3: got one hundred and thirty, Like, how is it even possible?

916
01:02:24,760 --> 01:02:26,520
Speaker 4: You're gonna leave? You're gonna leave.

917
01:02:27,920 --> 01:02:34,000
Speaker 5: Democrats for sure are going to win the House, and

918
01:02:34,720 --> 01:02:38,440
Speaker 5: I think it is possible that they will win the Senate,

919
01:02:39,760 --> 01:02:44,080
Speaker 5: but they are in as bad a position to do

920
01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:49,040
Speaker 5: so with as strong a hand as is possible to

921
01:02:49,320 --> 01:02:53,240
Speaker 5: have in this moment, because of the inability of Chuck

922
01:02:53,280 --> 01:03:00,960
Speaker 5: Schumer to communicate the ineptitude of his political team, the

923
01:03:01,680 --> 01:03:07,800
Speaker 5: ship of fools that are the connection of the Democratic

924
01:03:07,880 --> 01:03:14,480
Speaker 5: groups that support all of this, and the architecture of

925
01:03:14,560 --> 01:03:20,640
Speaker 5: the Democratic donor advisors and donor networks. They are human

926
01:03:20,760 --> 01:03:28,880
Speaker 5: period pyramids of incompetencies, built upon incompetence, towered upon more incompetence.

927
01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:40,280
Speaker 5: How many Democrats voted for Christino, voted for Pambondi.

928
01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:42,600
Speaker 4: Gave them a.

929
01:03:42,600 --> 01:03:45,720
Speaker 3: Shot cash hotel funded ice.

930
01:03:48,280 --> 01:03:51,160
Speaker 4: Gave them a budget bigger than the Marine Corps.

931
01:03:52,400 --> 01:03:56,320
Speaker 5: Or deluded enough to believe that everything sets back to normal.

932
01:03:58,480 --> 01:03:59,800
Speaker 4: Over and over and over.

933
01:03:59,600 --> 01:04:10,240
Speaker 5: Again, and so the failure to meet the moment. There's

934
01:04:10,280 --> 01:04:14,880
Speaker 5: a fundamental issue in the moment. And if you're thinking

935
01:04:14,920 --> 01:04:19,520
Speaker 5: of running for president as a Democrat, I'm going to

936
01:04:19,600 --> 01:04:23,360
Speaker 5: give you some advice. It's free advice. I know some

937
01:04:23,440 --> 01:04:28,120
Speaker 5: of you watch this. Here's the advice. New Hampshire is

938
01:04:28,160 --> 01:04:33,920
Speaker 5: going first. Say I understand New Hampshire's going first, and

939
01:04:33,960 --> 01:04:36,080
Speaker 5: I'm going to compete in the New Hampshire primary, and

940
01:04:36,120 --> 01:04:38,120
Speaker 5: I'm going to go to New Hampshire and I'm going

941
01:04:38,160 --> 01:04:40,720
Speaker 5: to stand up there and I'm going to say I'm

942
01:04:40,800 --> 01:04:45,880
Speaker 5: running for president, and I'm here to answer your questions

943
01:04:46,280 --> 01:04:48,920
Speaker 5: and do one hundred and twenty town hall meetings and

944
01:04:48,960 --> 01:04:52,040
Speaker 5: you'll win the New Hampshire primary and you can.

945
01:04:51,920 --> 01:04:54,320
Speaker 4: Be the Democratic nominee to be president.

946
01:04:55,000 --> 01:04:58,600
Speaker 5: And I think more and more every day that the

947
01:04:58,800 --> 01:05:05,200
Speaker 5: chances of an unknown candidate making it through this process,

948
01:05:05,360 --> 01:05:08,439
Speaker 5: or a dark horse candidate, or wherever you think about it,

949
01:05:08,800 --> 01:05:09,280
Speaker 5: go up.

950
01:05:09,800 --> 01:05:11,120
Speaker 3: Mm hmmm.

951
01:05:12,320 --> 01:05:16,080
Speaker 4: Not like in the air an awso off.

952
01:05:17,600 --> 01:05:23,400
Speaker 5: A there's a there's a there's a there's a bunch

953
01:05:23,440 --> 01:05:27,680
Speaker 5: of there's a bunch of there's a bunch of candidates.

954
01:05:27,720 --> 01:05:32,560
Speaker 5: Governor of Kentucky's a is a strong young candidate.

955
01:05:34,680 --> 01:05:35,360
Speaker 4: You know, I've.

956
01:05:35,200 --> 01:05:39,120
Speaker 5: Behre on on the warning this Wednesday, you know, and

957
01:05:39,240 --> 01:05:41,720
Speaker 5: he's dealing with a very very we talked about it

958
01:05:41,760 --> 01:05:47,120
Speaker 5: on Friday, very complicated. He's trying to find Mitch, you know.

959
01:05:47,360 --> 01:05:51,240
Speaker 5: And you know, so everyone everyone, right, if you think

960
01:05:51,280 --> 01:05:54,080
Speaker 5: about this as a process, is a test, right, everyone

961
01:05:54,200 --> 01:05:54,840
Speaker 5: is off.

962
01:05:54,680 --> 01:05:55,880
Speaker 4: Somewhere on the board.

963
01:05:56,040 --> 01:05:59,800
Speaker 5: Right, You're almost taking this game of strange version of

964
01:05:59,840 --> 01:06:02,880
Speaker 5: the amazing race. Right, They're all off there somewhere on

965
01:06:02,920 --> 01:06:06,120
Speaker 5: the board doing their test, right, you know. For Andy Bashier, right,

966
01:06:06,200 --> 01:06:11,680
Speaker 5: he's he's got to find Mitch, right, John oss Off right,

967
01:06:12,080 --> 01:06:16,360
Speaker 5: He's he's asking some questions that need asking, right, he's.

968
01:06:16,200 --> 01:06:18,120
Speaker 3: Got to keep kneecapping the regime when he.

969
01:06:18,080 --> 01:06:21,360
Speaker 5: Can't gotta and he's got to beat the Maga fascist

970
01:06:21,440 --> 01:06:22,440
Speaker 5: nut in Georgia.

971
01:06:22,640 --> 01:06:22,880
Speaker 4: Right.

972
01:06:22,960 --> 01:06:26,280
Speaker 5: And he's a model for a race that says, hey, right,

973
01:06:26,360 --> 01:06:30,160
Speaker 5: the way you beat these people is by paddling hard

974
01:06:30,280 --> 01:06:32,640
Speaker 5: right into the wave and you go right at them.

975
01:06:32,680 --> 01:06:36,080
Speaker 4: That's what John Ossoff is doing, right.

976
01:06:36,160 --> 01:06:40,440
Speaker 5: And so we're getting a flavor right of the talent

977
01:06:40,560 --> 01:06:43,360
Speaker 5: that exists out there in the Democratic Party, and it

978
01:06:43,480 --> 01:06:49,680
Speaker 5: is substantial right, but none of it, by definition, is

979
01:06:49,760 --> 01:06:54,560
Speaker 5: invested in any equity, any ownership, any stock, in the

980
01:06:54,640 --> 01:06:58,480
Speaker 5: incompetence of the institution of the DNC that's lost two

981
01:06:58,560 --> 01:07:02,920
Speaker 5: out of three elections with all of the people who

982
01:07:03,120 --> 01:07:08,240
Speaker 5: are permanent fixtures, have been for thirty years go. They're

983
01:07:08,280 --> 01:07:11,200
Speaker 5: on the rules committee, they go to the Sunday Show,

984
01:07:11,360 --> 01:07:14,080
Speaker 5: they go to the consulting firm, to the.

985
01:07:16,640 --> 01:07:18,560
Speaker 4: Unless this gets fixed.

986
01:07:20,080 --> 01:07:23,600
Speaker 5: In twenty twenty eight, Democrats will lose another election to

987
01:07:23,600 --> 01:07:28,040
Speaker 5: these people, and the country will not survive no four

988
01:07:28,080 --> 01:07:35,120
Speaker 5: more years of a fascist American president. We will achieve

989
01:07:35,240 --> 01:07:40,680
Speaker 5: the goal of getting a check on Donald Trump's power,

990
01:07:42,000 --> 01:07:53,200
Speaker 5: and that will make things both better and more dangerous,

991
01:07:55,000 --> 01:08:04,560
Speaker 5: both better and more unstable, both better and more risky.

992
01:08:05,480 --> 01:08:09,000
Speaker 5: Because that's real life. That's the real world again and

993
01:08:09,040 --> 01:08:11,360
Speaker 5: going back again. Right, it's a complex moment.

994
01:08:11,840 --> 01:08:12,040
Speaker 4: Right.

995
01:08:12,120 --> 01:08:17,200
Speaker 5: But but anybody right who's an adult, particularly in their

996
01:08:17,240 --> 01:08:20,479
Speaker 5: forties and fifties and sixties, like a fully functioning like

997
01:08:20,560 --> 01:08:24,920
Speaker 5: adult in society, who is on social media cheerleading for

998
01:08:25,000 --> 01:08:29,080
Speaker 5: these political parties and political candidates, and particularly the leaders

999
01:08:29,120 --> 01:08:33,120
Speaker 5: of Democratic Party that literally can't hear the criticism without

1000
01:08:33,200 --> 01:08:37,800
Speaker 5: losing their mind right without becoming emotionally unstable.

1001
01:08:37,960 --> 01:08:40,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, they tell you to stay on the teaming, right, Yeah,

1002
01:08:41,040 --> 01:08:41,880
Speaker 3: on the team.

1003
01:08:42,000 --> 01:08:43,080
Speaker 4: You know, I was the guy.

1004
01:08:43,360 --> 01:08:46,439
Speaker 5: I was the guy talking very very early about Joe

1005
01:08:46,439 --> 01:08:49,160
Speaker 5: Biden breaks his promise. We're in a big court world

1006
01:08:49,240 --> 01:08:54,439
Speaker 5: of fucking trouble. And you know what, I was right, right,

1007
01:08:54,520 --> 01:08:57,920
Speaker 5: and we were we were shouted down. Everyone who said

1008
01:08:57,920 --> 01:09:02,840
Speaker 5: that got a guy like Joe Scarborough who literally looked

1009
01:09:02,880 --> 01:09:06,439
Speaker 5: into a camera on Morning Joe and said, this is

1010
01:09:06,479 --> 01:09:09,120
Speaker 5: the best version of Joe Biden there has ever been,

1011
01:09:09,200 --> 01:09:12,200
Speaker 5: and then doubled down on it and said, and fuck you.

1012
01:09:13,560 --> 01:09:15,799
Speaker 4: If you don't see that that happened.

1013
01:09:16,880 --> 01:09:17,599
Speaker 2: That happened.

1014
01:09:18,640 --> 01:09:19,759
Speaker 4: It's like in real life.

1015
01:09:19,920 --> 01:09:23,160
Speaker 3: I know, I know I watched it and then and

1016
01:09:23,200 --> 01:09:25,160
Speaker 3: then completely supplicated.

1017
01:09:25,240 --> 01:09:30,360
Speaker 5: Right, I'll look into the camera and me here it

1018
01:09:31,360 --> 01:09:35,519
Speaker 5: MS now, we have the statue of incredibility to host

1019
01:09:35,560 --> 01:09:41,720
Speaker 5: the debate? What what so like if you're a presidential candidate, right, like, dude,

1020
01:09:41,760 --> 01:09:44,400
Speaker 5: the Morning Joe candidate's not going to do well the cycle?

1021
01:09:45,920 --> 01:09:46,120
Speaker 2: Right?

1022
01:09:46,240 --> 01:09:48,840
Speaker 4: Am I gonna do? Right?

1023
01:09:48,960 --> 01:09:51,519
Speaker 5: You want to you want a campaign on MS now,

1024
01:09:52,040 --> 01:09:55,880
Speaker 5: I'm going to do well the cycle? Well, that ship's

1025
01:09:55,920 --> 01:10:01,880
Speaker 5: a liability need a real reformer in a real moment

1026
01:10:02,040 --> 01:10:03,360
Speaker 5: of crisis.

1027
01:10:04,400 --> 01:10:06,000
Speaker 3: Wherever that is. They got a job to do too,

1028
01:10:06,120 --> 01:10:09,000
Speaker 3: taking over the entire party, rebuilding and putting money back

1029
01:10:09,040 --> 01:10:12,400
Speaker 3: into bank accounts, paying off people. One of the great pieces, uh,

1030
01:10:12,479 --> 01:10:14,720
Speaker 3: one of the great lines from your piece was how

1031
01:10:14,760 --> 01:10:18,200
Speaker 3: the Democratic Party and Ken Martin have asked vendors Democratic

1032
01:10:18,280 --> 01:10:20,600
Speaker 3: vendors of the party not to invoice them because it

1033
01:10:20,640 --> 01:10:23,439
Speaker 3: looks bad right now. They don't they don't have to

1034
01:10:23,479 --> 01:10:25,280
Speaker 3: pay them. I mean, you know, it's the kind of

1035
01:10:25,280 --> 01:10:27,240
Speaker 3: shit that you do when you're you know, you're you're

1036
01:10:27,280 --> 01:10:30,320
Speaker 3: being chased around for bills coming out of university. I mean,

1037
01:10:30,360 --> 01:10:33,479
Speaker 3: it's just it's fucking unbelievable. This is a serious party

1038
01:10:33,479 --> 01:10:35,599
Speaker 3: that's supposed to take Trump down. And to your point,

1039
01:10:35,800 --> 01:10:37,479
Speaker 3: I think the conversation, you know, and we have this

1040
01:10:37,560 --> 01:10:39,600
Speaker 3: all the time here in Canada when we meet Americans,

1041
01:10:39,920 --> 01:10:42,000
Speaker 3: you know, you're like there will ask him like, how

1042
01:10:42,040 --> 01:10:45,280
Speaker 3: the fuck did you How did he win? How did

1043
01:10:45,320 --> 01:10:47,479
Speaker 3: he win twice? How did he win after he won

1044
01:10:47,560 --> 01:10:49,679
Speaker 3: the first time destroyed your country? You got a four

1045
01:10:49,760 --> 01:10:51,880
Speaker 3: year you know break and then you like a la

1046
01:10:51,880 --> 01:10:54,080
Speaker 3: moratorium on trump Is' and then you did it again.

1047
01:10:54,120 --> 01:10:55,840
Speaker 3: How did you? And I think the question isn't how

1048
01:10:55,880 --> 01:10:58,080
Speaker 3: did he win, it's how did those fucking people lose?

1049
01:10:59,439 --> 01:11:02,160
Speaker 3: And how do they keep fucking losing? And you're laying out,

1050
01:11:02,560 --> 01:11:05,800
Speaker 3: you know, sort of that roadmap for how fucking ineffective

1051
01:11:05,880 --> 01:11:09,360
Speaker 3: they are, how self interested each individual person are, all

1052
01:11:09,360 --> 01:11:12,479
Speaker 3: the little islands in the Democratic Party. The only thing

1053
01:11:12,520 --> 01:11:14,360
Speaker 3: I can think is that I think you should take

1054
01:11:14,400 --> 01:11:17,920
Speaker 3: it the fuck over. That's that's what I think.

1055
01:11:19,520 --> 01:11:22,120
Speaker 5: All I can say is, yes, I got a I

1056
01:11:22,160 --> 01:11:25,559
Speaker 5: got a I got a buddy of mine who's got

1057
01:11:25,600 --> 01:11:32,080
Speaker 5: a strong willed teenage daughter and told me, he said,

1058
01:11:32,080 --> 01:11:34,880
Speaker 5: he looked at her and said, uh, sweetie, I'm so

1059
01:11:35,040 --> 01:11:39,320
Speaker 5: lucky to be a girl and I'm thirteen, fourteen years old.

1060
01:11:39,360 --> 01:11:44,160
Speaker 5: And she said, why as well, because if you were

1061
01:11:44,200 --> 01:11:49,960
Speaker 5: your brother, you'd be at military school, right, And I

1062
01:11:50,120 --> 01:11:52,879
Speaker 5: just you read that, You read that New York Times,

1063
01:11:53,000 --> 01:11:55,360
Speaker 5: You read that New York Time story.

1064
01:11:55,920 --> 01:12:00,760
Speaker 4: Can can Martin Barry's lucky? He's not chat and ease there?

1065
01:12:01,200 --> 01:12:04,200
Speaker 5: Right? You know you'd have to, you know, take a

1066
01:12:04,240 --> 01:12:06,200
Speaker 5: walk in the woods with the sword.

1067
01:12:06,240 --> 01:12:09,200
Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, Yeah, unbelievable.

1068
01:12:09,400 --> 01:12:12,519
Speaker 5: Yeah, what a what a disaster.

1069
01:12:12,400 --> 01:12:15,640
Speaker 3: At the worst possible fucking time to your point, the

1070
01:12:15,680 --> 01:12:18,160
Speaker 3: worst possible fucking time, last last word to see you

1071
01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:18,880
Speaker 3: before I let you go.

1072
01:12:19,120 --> 01:12:20,519
Speaker 4: I mean, I I just.

1073
01:12:23,040 --> 01:12:26,360
Speaker 5: This conversation I think is like so important right to

1074
01:12:26,479 --> 01:12:28,799
Speaker 5: have and to be able to have openly and honestly

1075
01:12:29,040 --> 01:12:31,439
Speaker 5: about the condition of this political party and the two

1076
01:12:31,479 --> 01:12:32,200
Speaker 5: party system.

1077
01:12:32,280 --> 01:12:32,439
Speaker 4: Right.

1078
01:12:32,640 --> 01:12:34,960
Speaker 5: If we had eight political parties and one of the

1079
01:12:34,960 --> 01:12:37,920
Speaker 5: Democratic parties was fucked up, it's not a crisis. There's

1080
01:12:38,479 --> 01:12:44,240
Speaker 5: eight engines on the plane, right, and two of them

1081
01:12:44,240 --> 01:12:46,519
Speaker 5: aren't working, Not a big deal.

1082
01:12:47,479 --> 01:12:49,240
Speaker 3: You're in the air, right.

1083
01:12:49,320 --> 01:12:51,360
Speaker 5: You got a two engine plane and one of the

1084
01:12:51,400 --> 01:12:57,599
Speaker 5: engines isn't working. Right, plane will still fly. If both

1085
01:12:57,640 --> 01:13:02,080
Speaker 5: engines go out, you get a big problem. Plane's not

1086
01:13:02,120 --> 01:13:08,679
Speaker 5: gonna fly. Country's gonna crash. George Washington was a wise guy,

1087
01:13:10,800 --> 01:13:18,559
Speaker 5: wise guy, complicated guy. It wasn't wasn't this monolithic mythological

1088
01:13:18,720 --> 01:13:20,040
Speaker 5: out of granted figure.

1089
01:13:21,439 --> 01:13:21,719
Speaker 3: Uh.

1090
01:13:21,800 --> 01:13:24,280
Speaker 4: He's a real person, right.

1091
01:13:24,439 --> 01:13:25,639
Speaker 2: Uh.

1092
01:13:25,760 --> 01:13:30,240
Speaker 5: He grew enormously over the course of his life, changed

1093
01:13:30,360 --> 01:13:34,559
Speaker 5: enormously over the course of his life. And Uh, George

1094
01:13:34,640 --> 01:13:38,360
Speaker 5: Washington's warnings at the end of his life about the

1095
01:13:38,360 --> 01:13:40,439
Speaker 5: future of the country did so much.

1096
01:13:40,280 --> 01:13:42,519
Speaker 4: To help create Uh.

1097
01:13:42,720 --> 01:13:48,440
Speaker 5: We're about avoiding foreign entanglements and the political parties overwhelming

1098
01:13:48,479 --> 01:13:51,040
Speaker 5: a sense of patriotism and anyone who can't see that

1099
01:13:51,040 --> 01:13:53,719
Speaker 5: we've reached the hour of the fulfillment of his warnings

1100
01:13:53,720 --> 01:13:59,840
Speaker 5: and warn right, And so we need a principal opposition.

1101
01:14:01,240 --> 01:14:03,800
Speaker 5: I don't you know you have all this chatter about

1102
01:14:03,840 --> 01:14:07,000
Speaker 5: the socialist and democratic socialists and this listen.

1103
01:14:07,120 --> 01:14:08,200
Speaker 4: You know, socialism is.

1104
01:14:08,200 --> 01:14:10,599
Speaker 5: Never going to take root in America. Right, It's contrary

1105
01:14:10,640 --> 01:14:15,040
Speaker 5: to the American character. Right, It's not it's it's not

1106
01:14:15,120 --> 01:14:17,240
Speaker 5: ever going to be a thing. Right, And even the

1107
01:14:17,320 --> 01:14:19,720
Speaker 5: whiff of it as a threat of it being a

1108
01:14:19,760 --> 01:14:23,519
Speaker 5: thing is enough to install a fascist regime. Right, So

1109
01:14:24,320 --> 01:14:26,959
Speaker 5: you know you got you got socialist winning in Manhattan

1110
01:14:27,000 --> 01:14:29,800
Speaker 5: districts that are plus sixty points democratic. Right.

1111
01:14:29,840 --> 01:14:31,280
Speaker 4: I don't think it's a national trend.

1112
01:14:32,040 --> 01:14:32,280
Speaker 3: Right.

1113
01:14:32,560 --> 01:14:36,839
Speaker 5: The country needs a mainstream democratic party in the tradition

1114
01:14:36,960 --> 01:14:41,160
Speaker 5: of Franklin Roosevelt and John Kennedy that is competent to

1115
01:14:41,200 --> 01:14:45,160
Speaker 5: make the government function and can put this magga insanity

1116
01:14:45,800 --> 01:14:50,880
Speaker 5: under a concrete fucking sarcophagus for the next eighty years.

1117
01:14:51,280 --> 01:14:52,519

Speaker 4: See Mitch say something.

1164
01:16:55,360 --> 01:16:56,559
Speaker 2: And somebody does I.

1165
01:16:56,439 --> 01:16:59,639
Speaker 1: Guys like you write them off forget it yet billions

1166
01:16:59,640 --> 01:17:00,599
Speaker 1: of people in the world.

1167
01:17:00,680 --> 01:17:02,559
Speaker 2: You don't have to make a jerk out of yourself.

1168
01:17:03,200 --> 01:17:07,240
Speaker 1: But usually a comedian hosts this dinner, and I think

1169
01:17:07,240 --> 01:17:08,920
Speaker 1: we sort of changed it tonight. We're going to have

1170
01:17:09,000 --> 01:17:11,880
Speaker 1: somebody who I think is really spectacular. But I've watched

1171
01:17:11,920 --> 01:17:15,679
Speaker 1: comedians get up for because I have been here actually

1172
01:17:15,720 --> 01:17:16,559
Speaker 1: quite a few times.

1173
01:17:16,600 --> 01:17:17,680
Speaker 2: People don't realize.

1174
01:17:18,160 --> 01:17:21,479
Speaker 1: And there's one time in particular when Barack Hussein Obama

1175
01:17:21,600 --> 01:17:22,160
Speaker 1: hosted it.

1176
01:17:22,200 --> 01:17:26,320
Speaker 2: Do you know who that is? And he hit me hard,

1177
01:17:26,800 --> 01:17:28,719
Speaker 2: but actually he hit me with respect.

1178
01:17:28,760 --> 01:17:33,160
Speaker 1: I was sitting with Melanie at a table and you

1179
01:17:33,280 --> 01:17:36,960
Speaker 1: had Brooklyn Decker, supermodel, at a table right next to

1180
01:17:37,120 --> 01:17:39,960
Speaker 1: and she I really always will like her. She's married

1181
01:17:39,960 --> 01:17:43,200
Speaker 1: to a great tennis player Andy, and she was at

1182
01:17:43,200 --> 01:17:46,599
Speaker 1: the table, none at my table. And I have watched

1183
01:17:46,600 --> 01:17:49,080
Speaker 1: this clip thousands of times. They keep playing it because

1184
01:17:49,080 --> 01:17:51,719
Speaker 1: they think that was evening. I decided to run for president.

1185
01:17:51,800 --> 01:17:52,280
Speaker 2: It was not.

1186
01:17:53,040 --> 01:17:56,200
Speaker 1: In fact, I loved the evening. I looked at my wife,

1187
01:17:56,200 --> 01:17:58,160
Speaker 1: I said, can you believe in all these people, that's

1188
01:17:58,160 --> 01:18:00,960
Speaker 1: all they're doing is talking about me. I love this dinner.

1189
01:18:02,040 --> 01:18:03,759
Speaker 1: It's true.

1190
01:18:03,880 --> 01:18:06,800
Speaker 2: And Obama was nice. You know, it's amazing how things

1191
01:18:06,840 --> 01:18:07,240
Speaker 2: work out.

1192
01:18:07,600 --> 01:18:10,080
Speaker 1: He actually showed a picture of the White House with

1193
01:18:10,280 --> 01:18:12,160
Speaker 1: a big Trump on top, like I put us on,

1194
01:18:12,240 --> 01:18:13,840
Speaker 1: and you know, I'm sort of doing that when you

1195
01:18:13,880 --> 01:18:17,799
Speaker 1: think about it, right, I mean, he wasn't really wrong,

1196
01:18:18,120 --> 01:18:21,720
Speaker 1: but no, he was respectful, he was good, and it

1197
01:18:21,800 --> 01:18:23,200
Speaker 1: had but it had nothing to do.

1198
01:18:23,880 --> 01:18:24,920
Speaker 2: It had nothing to do.

1199
01:18:25,040 --> 01:18:28,840
Speaker 1: I just decided that I wanted to make America great again.

1200
01:18:28,920 --> 01:18:30,320
Speaker 2: This had nothing to do with that dinner.
