1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:04,680 Speaker 1: The firing, the dismissal, and the humiliation of Maga overgroup 2 00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:09,000 Speaker 1: and fuor Greg Bavino is satisfying. He will be cast 3 00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:13,040 Speaker 1: out and retired in disgrace, and he will live with 4 00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:17,079 Speaker 1: his shame every day for the rest of his life. 5 00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:21,400 Speaker 1: And may it be a long and miserable one, filled 6 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:25,560 Speaker 1: with the suffering that his crimes ought to bring him. 7 00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:30,160 Speaker 1: But it changes nothing. Thousands of people have been abused 8 00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:36,360 Speaker 1: on the orders of Christinoa, Corey Lewandowski, Greg Bavino, Tom Homan, 9 00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:41,800 Speaker 1: and the architect of these atrocities, Stephen Miller. Donald Trump 10 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,360 Speaker 1: held a secret meeting at the White House because, according 11 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 1: to reports, Mulania's White House movie premiere was ruined by 12 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:55,080 Speaker 1: the murder. It also ruined Tim Cooks day. But the 13 00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 1: meeting in the Oval Office did not result in the 14 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 1: dodibly incompetent, unqualified sadist Christy nom being fired, It did 15 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 1: not result in Corey Lewandowski being fired, and it certainly 16 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 1: did not result in Stephen Miller being fired. Nothing has changed, 17 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:19,199 Speaker 1: and the corruption of the American media has never been 18 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:24,760 Speaker 1: more spectacularly evident than in the coverage of the dispatching 19 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:29,200 Speaker 1: of Tom Homan, who took fifty thousand dollars of cash 20 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 1: in a kava bag as a payoff for future private 21 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 1: prison contracts to go to Minnesota. He too is a thug. 22 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 1: He too is a bottom feeder. He too is a 23 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:46,399 Speaker 1: man of violence, a man who wishes to wage war 24 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 1: against the American people. Nothing has changed for Alex Pretty. 25 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 1: Nothing has changed for his family. Nothing has changed for 26 00:01:55,520 --> 00:02:00,360 Speaker 1: Rene Good or her orphaned child. Nothing has changed. It 27 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 1: is Wednesday, January twenty eighth. I'm Steve Schmidt. This is 28 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 1: the warning. Here is Christy known smearing a murdered va 29 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 1: ICU nurse. 30 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 2: The White House is labeled the man who was killed 31 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 2: in Minnesota as a domestic terrorist. 32 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 1: Is that something you agree with? 33 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,119 Speaker 3: And have you seen any evidence to When you perpetuate 34 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 3: violence against a government because of ideological reasons and for 35 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 3: reasons to resist and perpet joint violence, that is the 36 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 3: definition of domestic terrorism. This individual who came with weapons 37 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:36,959 Speaker 3: and ammunition to stop a law enforcement operation of federal 38 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:40,639 Speaker 3: law enforcement officers committed an act of domestic terrorism. That's 39 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 3: the facts. 40 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 1: It is all lies. Here is her spokesperson smearing Alex Pretty. 41 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 3: Tricia is the Department and the Secretary pulling back that 42 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:54,959 Speaker 3: label of domestic terrorists from the alex pretty situation. 43 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 2: Dating this situation, we have seen on the ground in 44 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 2: Minneapolis a highly coordinate, a campaign of violence against our 45 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 2: law enforcement. Your viewers have seen the images. And in 46 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:09,359 Speaker 2: this case, we saw an individual who he was armed, 47 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,800 Speaker 2: He got into a physical altercation with law enforcement. He 48 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 2: was in the course of obstructing a federal operation, which 49 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 2: is a federal crime. The Department of Homeland Security, we 50 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 2: work every day to make sure we're giving the American 51 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 2: people swift, accurate information and so we'll continue to do 52 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 2: that as doing standard bizz. Things are evolving. That are 53 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 2: you standing by calling him a domestic terrorist? Well, we'll 54 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 2: let this investigation that Homeland Security investigators are leading, the 55 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 2: FBI is supporting, and CBP is doing a separate internal 56 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 2: investigation as well. Dana, Okay, so not. 57 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 3: I guess it stands. 58 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 1: It is all lies. These people, Miller known Lewandowski home 59 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 1: in Bavina. It doesn't matter. They're interchangeable parts. But the 60 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: one thing that ties them all together is they can't 61 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 1: be trusted, can't be believed about anything. Donald Trump has 62 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 1: turned against the Second Amendment. Well, God thinks that you know, 63 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 1: he can't have done You can't walk in with guns. 64 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 3: You just what about the second amend names. 65 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 1: Listen, he didn't walk in with guns. You can't do that. 66 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 1: But it's just a very unfortunate insidy. Donald Trump has 67 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:23,600 Speaker 1: shared his love for the pretty family who lost their son, 68 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:28,160 Speaker 1: and then watch his character be smeared by Trump's agents, 69 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:32,599 Speaker 1: by Trump's mouthpieces, by Trump's liars, and yet Trump says, 70 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 1: I love the pretty family. Well, I'm looking at that 71 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 1: whole situation. I love everybody, I love all of our people. 72 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: I love his family. And it's a very sad situation. 73 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 1: The indecency never ever stops. Christy Noam is a sadist 74 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:54,040 Speaker 1: who bragged openly while trying to appeal to Trump's cruelty 75 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 1: fetish about her killing a fourteen month old puppy, blowing 76 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: it away with a shotgu for disobedience. Do you know 77 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 1: what the first thing psychologists look at when they study 78 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 1: serial killers, the first indication of their violence, It is 79 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 1: always animal cruelty. Look at Christy no Look at her 80 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:19,480 Speaker 1: dead eyes. There's nothing there is there, dead, solace, joyless. 81 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 1: This woman is a psychopath, and the Democratic Party in 82 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 1: a few days time is called to do something that 83 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 1: it has not been able to do for many, many years, 84 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 1: and that is to hold a line, stand Paul, and 85 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 1: tell uncomfortable truths that must be said out loud when 86 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 1: it comes to Homeland security and ICE. The Democratic Party, 87 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: because they are in the minority, is not in a 88 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:51,479 Speaker 1: position to do all that they must do, but they 89 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 1: do have the power to do what must be done now, 90 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 1: and what must be done is ICE and DHS must 91 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 1: be leashed. And Democrats should be perfectly clear that it 92 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:08,919 Speaker 1: is the Republicans who are willing to shut down the government, 93 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,919 Speaker 1: all of it, in order to maintain the violence, in 94 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:17,679 Speaker 1: order to maintain the power of the Gestapo, in order 95 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 1: to make certain that federal agents, if they decide to, 96 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 1: can kill you at wham. This is an issue worth 97 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: shutting the government down for. It is an issue worth 98 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 1: asking the American people to sacrifice over. It is an 99 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 1: issue around which there can be no compromise because it 100 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,839 Speaker 1: goes to the heart and the soul of the American 101 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 1: way of life. America is a republic, and that republic 102 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:50,040 Speaker 1: survival has been cast into doubt not by something that 103 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,919 Speaker 1: happened last week or this week, but by what happened 104 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:56,720 Speaker 1: on January sixth, twenty twenty one, when a man who 105 00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:01,160 Speaker 1: lost an election tried to blow up our society and 106 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 1: take power that he had not been given by the people. 107 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:08,679 Speaker 1: And ever since that day, step by step, hour by hour, 108 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 1: we have inched towards the abyss. And though it didn't 109 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: look like on a daily basis, we had moved much 110 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 1: closer than the day before. Over eleven years time, we 111 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 1: are now in that abyss. What is happening in the 112 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 1: United States is indistinguishable from the type of violence that 113 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: is common in places like Russia and China and North Korea. 114 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 1: Uniforms of brutality descending onto peaceful citizens, beating them, shooting them, 115 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 1: maiming them. It must be stopped. Democrats must hold the line, 116 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 1: and the American people must stand behind them, making clear 117 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 1: that if you lead, we will follow, but that if 118 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 1: you retreat, you will face our fury. This is the warning. 119 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 1: I'm Steve Schmidt. This is the warning.
