1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:04,120 Speaker 1: It is Tuesday, August twenty sixth. This is the warning. 2 00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:09,239 Speaker 2: What's up with Trump's hand, his ankles. He's sick. It's 3 00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:14,240 Speaker 2: obvious what's wrong with him. The American people traditionally have 4 00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:16,720 Speaker 2: had a right to know about the health of the 5 00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:20,919 Speaker 2: chief executive officer, the president of the United States. But 6 00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:25,040 Speaker 2: I guess it's a new age. Donald Trump yesterday said something. 7 00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:28,160 Speaker 2: They might have given it away a little bit. He said, 8 00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:32,400 Speaker 2: some people say they'd like a dictator. I remember not 9 00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:35,800 Speaker 2: so long ago when Donald said he'd just be a 10 00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:40,240 Speaker 2: dictator for a day. But it seems perhaps today whetted 11 00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:42,839 Speaker 2: his appetite. Let's watch, as you. 12 00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:46,239 Speaker 3: All know, Chicago's a killing field right now. And they 13 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:49,199 Speaker 3: don't acknowledge it, and they say, we don't need them. 14 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:49,600 Speaker 1: Freedom. 15 00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:52,159 Speaker 3: Freedom. He's a dictator, he's a dictator. A lot of 16 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 3: people are saying, maybe we like a dictator. I don't 17 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:58,480 Speaker 3: like a dictator. I'm not a dictator. I'm a man 18 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 3: with great common sense and a smart person. 19 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 2: There is this decree about flag burning. Of course Donald 20 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:10,200 Speaker 2: knows that this creates a fight. That's perfect for a 21 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:14,560 Speaker 2: demagogue like him, because we live in an idiotized society 22 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 2: stripped of the ability to hold complex arguments. If it 23 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:24,360 Speaker 2: is not possible to explain what I'm about to try to, 24 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 2: then it may be the case that we're just a 25 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 2: couple seconds to midnight when it comes to freedom in 26 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:35,199 Speaker 2: this country, and there's nothing to stop the second hand 27 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:39,319 Speaker 2: from moving forward. I think that flag burning is a 28 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 2: contemptible act, disgraceful. 29 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:43,040 Speaker 1: It breaks my heart. 30 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 2: The only thing greater than desecrating the flag in that 31 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 2: vile manner is burning what it stands for by singing 32 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 2: its ideas. And first and foremost, the American flag stands 33 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 2: for freedom, and it stands for the Constitution of the 34 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 2: United States. It stands for a government of the people, 35 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 2: by the people, for the people with a First Amendment, 36 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:11,519 Speaker 2: and that first Amendment guarantees the right to burn a 37 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 2: flag if someone chooses to do it. It protects the 38 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 2: most vile speech imaginable. Here's Stephen Miller celebrating the day's 39 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 2: achievements on the propaganda show that's made Sean Hannity a 40 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 2: very rich man. Here Steven Miller lies and paints a 41 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 2: picture not of reality, not what's happening in Washington, but 42 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 2: a reality a delusion for the sixty nine year old 43 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:45,399 Speaker 2: snuggled back in their leisure chair watching Hannity from somewhere 44 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:46,840 Speaker 2: in the middle of the country. 45 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 4: All of these organized street gangs that are terrorizing these cities, 46 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,520 Speaker 4: that are dealing these drugs, that are trafficking weapons, that 47 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 4: are engaging in organized theft, armed robbery, carjacking. All of 48 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 4: them are doing this this with at some level or another, 49 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 4: the trans national narco trafficking organizations. So these these street 50 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:12,079 Speaker 4: crews are engaging material support for terrorism, which is the 51 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 4: core function of the federal government to defend and protect. 52 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 4: President Trump has literally set the people of Washington, DC free. 53 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 4: They're so happy now that they can just go out 54 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 4: and live their lives. Go to the favorite restaurant, go 55 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 4: to the favorite bar, go to the favorite pool hall, 56 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 4: go to the favorite park. You see moms taking kids 57 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 4: out the parks they haven't been to in years because 58 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 4: they know the police are there. They know that President 59 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 4: Trump is there with his law enforcement to protect them. 60 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 4: So the thing at Beauty Sean, But I would say 61 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 4: to the mayor of all these Democrat cities like Chicago, 62 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 4: what you are doing to your own citizens is evil. 63 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 1: These people. 64 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 2: Soon we'll be watching Fox as the stories of the 65 00:03:55,080 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 2: liberation of the cities beginst unfold as national guards from 66 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 2: Blue states are sent to the Red States, one inch 67 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 2: away from a type of civil war, from a line. 68 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: That is hard to uncross. 69 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 2: All of it authored by Donald Trump and his minions 70 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:17,359 Speaker 2: and sac of fans and the people who stand beside him. 71 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 1: Obviously, this is crazy. 72 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 5: Just overflowing with gratitude because for the first time in 73 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,479 Speaker 5: their lives, they can use the parks, they can walk 74 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 5: on the streets. You have people who can walk freely 75 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 5: at night without having to worry about being robbed or mugged. 76 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 5: They're wearing their watches again. They're wearing jewelry again, They're 77 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 5: carrying purses again. People have changed their whole lives in 78 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 5: this city for fear of being murdered, mugged, and carjacked. 79 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:44,840 Speaker 5: It is a literal statement that President Trump has freed 80 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 5: seven hundred thousand people in this city who are living 81 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 5: under the rule of criminals and thugs. 82 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 2: The lies fundamentally about being the basis for Donald to 83 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 2: claim power. And now the man and who said I 84 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 2: want a Nobel Peace Prize was to change the Department 85 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 2: of Defense to the Department of War. Well, according to 86 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 2: news reports, he's signing secret findings, initiating a secret war 87 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 2: in Mexico in South America, and historically that's never gone 88 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 2: well for the United States. But I'm sure with the 89 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 2: genius and the Oval Office, it'll be different this time. 90 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: How do you plan to do that? 91 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 2: It requires an Act of Congress to rename the Defense 92 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 2: Department to the. 93 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:31,719 Speaker 1: Department corpt Go to do it. 94 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 3: I'm sure Congress will go along if we need that. 95 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 3: I don't think we even need that, but if we 96 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 3: need that, I'm sure Congress will go along. You know, 97 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 3: that was the name when we want. We won World 98 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:46,040 Speaker 3: War One, we won World War Two, we won everything, 99 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 3: and just to me seems like just a much more appropriate. 100 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 3: The other is defense is too defensive, and we want 101 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,480 Speaker 3: to be defensive, but we want to be offensive too 102 00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,599 Speaker 3: if we have to be, so it just sounded to 103 00:05:59,600 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 3: me better. 104 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 1: It's really like a better than you. 105 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 2: Everywhere Donald Trump is asserting power he doesn't have, and 106 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:11,839 Speaker 2: everywhere the American people mostly are yawning through the summer. 107 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:15,279 Speaker 2: But soon in a city near you, there's going to 108 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:18,359 Speaker 2: be a tank on the street, a man with a 109 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:22,599 Speaker 2: rifle not over there, but here, in a military uniform 110 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 2: and a lot of those people will be ignorant. They'll 111 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 2: be looking for a fight, and they'll think, because they 112 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:34,039 Speaker 2: live in a world of algorithms and fantasy, that the 113 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 2: people they're pointing the weapons out are their enemies, not 114 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 2: their fellow Americans, and that pointing a gun at the 115 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 2: people who live in those cities is the way to 116 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 2: liberate them. Because Trump is great, and soon we all will. 117 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 2: What a tragic moment. This is not just for the 118 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 2: United States but all the world. What we are witnessing 119 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 2: is the collapse of the greatest republic in the history 120 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 2: of the world. 121 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 1: Its failure and. 122 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:06,200 Speaker 2: Falling is not yet set in stone, but it is 123 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 2: falling apart, and it is collapsing, and a dictator is rising. 124 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 2: The checks and balances have become a punchline, the abuse 125 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 2: of power, the self enrichment, and the fact that mostly 126 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 2: the things the Constitution says, the things that we thought 127 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 2: were the rock, turned out to be well sand castles. 128 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 2: Sand castles on the beach at Marlaco. Time is running out, 129 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 2: It's running out to take a stand. 130 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 1: Soon there will be more knocks on the door. 131 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 2: There will be more stories of people like John Bolton, 132 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 2: until there's too many to even notice, and then there'll 133 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 2: be a draft to fill up the Department of War. 134 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 1: Maybe the ranks of ice. 135 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 2: Nobody has told Trump no, can't hear the word. Couldn't 136 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 2: hear it when he lost an election, and now there's 137 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 2: no one left to tell it to him except for 138 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 2: the American people who don't seem too concerned at all. 139 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 2: His approval ratings are dropping, yet the silence is deafening. 140 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:09,119 Speaker 2: President says he wants to be a dictator and says 141 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 2: out loud, let's watch. 142 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 3: As you all know. Chicago's a killing field right now. 143 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 3: And they don't acknowledge it, and they say, we don't 144 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 3: need them. 145 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 1: Freedom. Freedom. 146 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 3: He's a dictator. He's a dictator. A lot of people 147 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 3: are saying, maybe we like a dictator.

Anywhere there's black people or 153 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 2: brown people, where there's an immigrant, there's an opportunity for 154 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 2: Donald Trump to tell his sick lies and have them 155 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 2: paddled out on his propaganda networks across the country about 156 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:54,959 Speaker 2: things that are not true, have not been true, and 157 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 2: have never been true. And because of those lives that 158 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 2: have strangled reality, stand on the edge of some of 159 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,439 Speaker 2: the most dangerous days in this country in one hundred 160 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 2: and sixty years.
