WEBVTT - Joni Ernst's Journey From Promising Senator to Corrupt Appeaser

0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:04.960
<v Speaker 1>It is Monday, June second. This is the warning. Today.

0:00:05.120 --> 0:00:08.039
<v Speaker 1>We're going to talk about the broken woman that is

0:00:08.080 --> 0:00:12.039
<v Speaker 1>the United States Senator from the state of Iowa, Joni Ernst.

0:00:12.320 --> 0:00:15.200
<v Speaker 1>She is a case study in what can happen to

0:00:15.320 --> 0:00:19.680
<v Speaker 1>your soul after twelve years in Washington, d c. How

0:00:19.720 --> 0:00:23.560
<v Speaker 1>it can break you, how fame and power can utterly

0:00:23.800 --> 0:00:27.440
<v Speaker 1>corrupt you. Joni Earnst went to a town hall meeting

0:00:27.720 --> 0:00:30.560
<v Speaker 1>and she was called out. She was called out by

0:00:30.600 --> 0:00:34.520
<v Speaker 1>an Iowa voter who's offended, who's disgusted by what she's

0:00:34.560 --> 0:00:38.680
<v Speaker 1>witnessing all over the country. Now, this woman, who Joni

0:00:38.760 --> 0:00:43.479
<v Speaker 1>Earnst would later smear as distraught, pointed out factually and

0:00:43.600 --> 0:00:47.760
<v Speaker 1>correctly that as an actual consequence of the votes that

0:00:47.880 --> 0:00:51.680
<v Speaker 1>Joni Ernst has made and has taken, that people are

0:00:51.760 --> 0:00:55.720
<v Speaker 1>going to die, and they will. People are already dying.

0:00:56.040 --> 0:01:00.160
<v Speaker 1>Where there is US food aid riding on shelves all

0:01:00.240 --> 0:01:04.360
<v Speaker 1>over the world, there are people dying. There are children dying.

0:01:04.440 --> 0:01:08.760
<v Speaker 1>Some of the estimates are already more than three hundred

0:01:08.840 --> 0:01:13.720
<v Speaker 1>thousand deaths have accrued have piled up because of the

0:01:13.840 --> 0:01:18.560
<v Speaker 1>arson of Elon Musk against the poorest people in the world.

0:01:18.680 --> 0:01:21.720
<v Speaker 1>And this has been documented. This has been pointed out

0:01:21.760 --> 0:01:26.440
<v Speaker 1>many times. Jony Ernst ran for the United States Senate

0:01:26.640 --> 0:01:30.120
<v Speaker 1>promising to be a budget cutter, and she won attention

0:01:30.600 --> 0:01:35.600
<v Speaker 1>and notoriety with this very famous ad. Today, we're going

0:01:35.680 --> 0:01:40.080
<v Speaker 1>to talk about a psychological journey from that ad to

0:01:40.200 --> 0:01:43.320
<v Speaker 1>the place she is now. But let's begin with the

0:01:43.400 --> 0:01:47.240
<v Speaker 1>ad back in the day when Senator Joni was just

0:01:47.360 --> 0:01:51.400
<v Speaker 1>a cropped hair Iowa farmer getting ready to go do

0:01:51.600 --> 0:01:56.560
<v Speaker 1>the people's business, to fight pork in Washington, DC. Let's watch.

0:01:57.160 --> 0:02:00.280
<v Speaker 2>I'm Jony Ernst. I grew up castrating hoggs on an

0:02:00.320 --> 0:02:04.080
<v Speaker 2>Iowa farm, so when I get to Washington, I'll know

0:02:04.120 --> 0:02:04.920
<v Speaker 2>how to cut pork.

0:02:05.720 --> 0:02:08.360
<v Speaker 1>Jony Ernst, mother soldier conservative.

0:02:08.639 --> 0:02:11.360
<v Speaker 2>My parents taught us to live within our means. It's

0:02:11.400 --> 0:02:15.240
<v Speaker 2>time to force Washington to do the same, to cut

0:02:15.280 --> 0:02:19.840
<v Speaker 2>wasteful spending, repeal Obamacare, and balance the budget. I'm Joni

0:02:19.960 --> 0:02:23.960
<v Speaker 2>ernstin I approved this message because Washington's full of big spenders.

0:02:24.639 --> 0:02:26.400
<v Speaker 2>Let's make them squeal.

0:02:27.600 --> 0:02:31.360
<v Speaker 1>Just to understand this budget that she voted for. It

0:02:31.480 --> 0:02:36.080
<v Speaker 1>is the greatest taking in American history from people who

0:02:36.160 --> 0:02:39.760
<v Speaker 1>have the least by people who have the most, and

0:02:39.840 --> 0:02:44.600
<v Speaker 1>it will add five trillion dollars to the debt. It's

0:02:44.600 --> 0:02:47.720
<v Speaker 1>hard to comprehend these numbers, but let me help. If

0:02:47.760 --> 0:02:50.480
<v Speaker 1>I said I'll meet you in a million seconds, that's

0:02:50.520 --> 0:02:53.280
<v Speaker 1>twelve days from now. If I said I'll meet you

0:02:53.320 --> 0:02:56.480
<v Speaker 1>in a billion seconds, that's thirty three years from now.

0:02:56.720 --> 0:03:00.000
<v Speaker 1>If I said a trillion seconds, that's thirty three thousand

0:03:00.160 --> 0:03:04.120
<v Speaker 1>years from now. That's the difference between a trillion and

0:03:04.200 --> 0:03:09.560
<v Speaker 1>a billion. And so this atrocious budget, this immoral budget

0:03:09.800 --> 0:03:14.640
<v Speaker 1>that Jonie Ernst is voting for, cavalierly without regard for

0:03:14.720 --> 0:03:18.560
<v Speaker 1>the closure of rural hospitals, for the damage that it

0:03:18.639 --> 0:03:22.240
<v Speaker 1>will do to the people that gave her the honor

0:03:22.320 --> 0:03:26.680
<v Speaker 1>of representing them. Now says this, Oh.

0:03:27.800 --> 0:03:32.520
<v Speaker 2>People are not well. We all are going to die.

0:03:34.520 --> 0:03:39.000
<v Speaker 2>I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely apologize

0:03:39.440 --> 0:03:44.200
<v Speaker 2>for a statement that I made yesterday at my town hall.

0:03:44.480 --> 0:03:44.720
<v Speaker 1>See.

0:03:44.720 --> 0:03:47.520
<v Speaker 2>I was in the process of answering a question that

0:03:47.560 --> 0:03:51.360
<v Speaker 2>had been asked by an audience member when a woman

0:03:51.440 --> 0:03:56.040
<v Speaker 2>who was extremely distraught screamed out from the back corner

0:03:56.040 --> 0:04:02.640
<v Speaker 2>of the auditorium people are going to die. And I

0:04:02.680 --> 0:04:08.840
<v Speaker 2>made an incorrect assumption that everyone in the auditorium understood

0:04:09.840 --> 0:04:14.280
<v Speaker 2>that yes, we are all going to perish from this earth.

0:04:15.800 --> 0:04:21.200
<v Speaker 2>So I apologize, and I'm really really glad that I

0:04:21.279 --> 0:04:23.920
<v Speaker 2>did not have to bring up the subject of the

0:04:23.960 --> 0:04:25.200
<v Speaker 2>tooth fairy as well.

0:04:26.080 --> 0:04:29.720
<v Speaker 1>How broken is she now? This is a woman who,

0:04:30.080 --> 0:04:34.560
<v Speaker 1>given her responsibilities on the Armed Services Committee, chose to

0:04:34.640 --> 0:04:38.680
<v Speaker 1>abuse the office in the power by conducting affairs with

0:04:38.800 --> 0:04:41.880
<v Speaker 1>an Air Force general and a Navy admiral who were

0:04:41.920 --> 0:04:45.039
<v Speaker 1>the lobbyists for the Navy and the Air Force. The

0:04:45.160 --> 0:04:49.400
<v Speaker 1>Navy admiral was reassigned and the Air Force general was disciplined.

0:04:49.640 --> 0:04:54.520
<v Speaker 1>That's what Joanie Ernst is doing in Washington, DC, away

0:04:54.600 --> 0:04:58.840
<v Speaker 1>from the eyes of her constituents, who she insults and

0:04:58.920 --> 0:05:04.960
<v Speaker 1>demeans and attacks on behalf of a billionaire who's feeding

0:05:05.040 --> 0:05:08.680
<v Speaker 1>at a trough like a pig on bitcoin while the

0:05:08.720 --> 0:05:12.400
<v Speaker 1>rest of the country is watching the stock market wobble

0:05:12.800 --> 0:05:16.919
<v Speaker 1>and watching America get weaker and the job market tighten,

0:05:17.200 --> 0:05:21.159
<v Speaker 1>and watch their savings disappear as prices go up. That's

0:05:21.200 --> 0:05:24.120
<v Speaker 1>what the rest of the country is seeing now. When

0:05:24.120 --> 0:05:27.159
<v Speaker 1>it comes to the University of Iowa, there's a special

0:05:27.240 --> 0:05:30.840
<v Speaker 1>tradition that takes place at the school, which is such

0:05:30.839 --> 0:05:33.520
<v Speaker 1>an important part of the fabric of the state. Now

0:05:33.760 --> 0:05:37.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm a Iowa dad, my daughter goes to the University

0:05:37.400 --> 0:05:41.239
<v Speaker 1>of Iowa Gohawks, go Caitlin Clark. And let me say,

0:05:41.400 --> 0:05:44.719
<v Speaker 1>when you go to a Iowa football game, you see

0:05:44.760 --> 0:05:49.159
<v Speaker 1>an extraordinary tradition in Kentnick Stadium. Above the stadium is

0:05:49.200 --> 0:05:53.720
<v Speaker 1>the University of Iowa Children's Hospital. It's an incredible facility.

0:05:53.920 --> 0:05:57.680
<v Speaker 1>And during halftime, the children, a lot of them suffering

0:05:57.839 --> 0:06:02.960
<v Speaker 1>with tough diseases, cancer and curable diseases. They wave to

0:06:03.120 --> 0:06:08.160
<v Speaker 1>the football crowd below, and the entire crowd waves back.

0:06:08.360 --> 0:06:12.200
<v Speaker 1>And it's an incredible experience to be in a sea

0:06:12.240 --> 0:06:17.239
<v Speaker 1>of kindness and goodwill and everybody waves. Nobody asks about

0:06:17.400 --> 0:06:20.840
<v Speaker 1>the party affiliation of the kid's parents or what it

0:06:20.920 --> 0:06:24.520
<v Speaker 1>is that they may believe. Everybody sees a sick kid

0:06:24.880 --> 0:06:28.640
<v Speaker 1>looking down and knows that they can lift that kid's

0:06:28.640 --> 0:06:33.440
<v Speaker 1>spirits up. Joni Ernst has a responsibility for the sick

0:06:33.520 --> 0:06:37.039
<v Speaker 1>kid in Iowa, and Jonie Ernst has stabbed that kid

0:06:37.120 --> 0:06:41.760
<v Speaker 1>in the back for fame, for power, for the privilege

0:06:42.040 --> 0:06:46.599
<v Speaker 1>of being Donald's good girl. And so Jony Ernst was

0:06:46.960 --> 0:06:52.320
<v Speaker 1>essentially blackmailed to vote for Pete Hegseth Joni Ernst. Once

0:06:52.360 --> 0:06:55.360
<v Speaker 1>she got to Washington, let it be known that she's

0:06:55.400 --> 0:06:58.720
<v Speaker 1>a sexual assault survivor. In fact, she made it the

0:06:58.760 --> 0:07:01.520
<v Speaker 1>predicate of her servant. There are a few articles that

0:07:01.560 --> 0:07:04.760
<v Speaker 1>are written about Jony Ernst where the lead isn't Jony

0:07:04.920 --> 0:07:08.960
<v Speaker 1>Ernst's sexual assault survivor. And yet she voted for an

0:07:09.040 --> 0:07:14.240
<v Speaker 1>alleged rapist and a drunk and somebody who expressed contempt

0:07:14.520 --> 0:07:18.000
<v Speaker 1>for women in the military over and over and over again.

0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:21.760
<v Speaker 1>Who's the most unfit defense secretary in history? And yet

0:07:22.080 --> 0:07:27.239
<v Speaker 1>she voted for because people in Washington know who Joni

0:07:27.560 --> 0:07:31.400
<v Speaker 1>is and they have leverage over her, which is, hey, Joni,

0:07:31.680 --> 0:07:34.720
<v Speaker 1>if you don't vote the way we want, we'll tell

0:07:34.760 --> 0:07:38.960
<v Speaker 1>the people back home about what you've become here in Washington, DC.

0:07:39.400 --> 0:07:43.160
<v Speaker 1>As if it isn't plainly evident it is. And so

0:07:43.760 --> 0:07:48.400
<v Speaker 1>Joni Ernst has journey down a river. She started here

0:07:48.760 --> 0:07:53.560
<v Speaker 1>and ended up here. These comments, they drip with disdain

0:07:53.920 --> 0:07:58.360
<v Speaker 1>and contempt for the real lives, the real struggles, the

0:07:58.400 --> 0:08:02.800
<v Speaker 1>real concerns of the people that center to Washington. And

0:08:02.840 --> 0:08:07.600
<v Speaker 1>now those people, Americans, all have an opportunity to fire

0:08:07.720 --> 0:08:11.320
<v Speaker 1>Joony Earns and to replace her with someone better. And

0:08:11.400 --> 0:08:14.680
<v Speaker 1>the choice doesn't have to be somebody who's going to

0:08:14.720 --> 0:08:18.840
<v Speaker 1>go to Washington and sidle up to Chuck Schumer, doesn't

0:08:18.880 --> 0:08:21.440
<v Speaker 1>have to be for somebody who's going to vote for

0:08:21.480 --> 0:08:24.840
<v Speaker 1>the Senate leadership that's there now. It can be somebody

0:08:24.840 --> 0:08:30.520
<v Speaker 1>who demands real change and decency in demands that taxpayers

0:08:31.000 --> 0:08:35.439
<v Speaker 1>are treated fairly and honestly and not abused by their

0:08:35.480 --> 0:08:39.480
<v Speaker 1>elected officials. And that's what Joony Ernst is doing. She's

0:08:39.520 --> 0:08:43.840
<v Speaker 1>abusing the people in her state, abusing them with her sophistry,

0:08:44.120 --> 0:08:49.120
<v Speaker 1>abusing them with her indifference, abusing them with her cruelty,

0:08:49.480 --> 0:08:54.240
<v Speaker 1>abusing them with her tolerance for incompetence, abusing them with

0:08:54.360 --> 0:08:59.240
<v Speaker 1>her lies, abusing them with her false pieties. Her Lord

0:08:59.320 --> 0:09:03.040
<v Speaker 1>and Savior Jesus Christ. I wonder if she shouted out

0:09:03.040 --> 0:09:06.040
<v Speaker 1>his name with the admiral in the General Give me

0:09:06.080 --> 0:09:09.680
<v Speaker 1>a break. Joni Ernst is voting for a budget that

0:09:09.760 --> 0:09:12.640
<v Speaker 1>will cause real suffering, and she claims she does it

0:09:12.679 --> 0:09:16.080
<v Speaker 1>in Jesus' name. It's an act of blasphemy, just like

0:09:16.200 --> 0:09:20.679
<v Speaker 1>this guy who ordered a guess attack on episcopal priests

0:09:21.040 --> 0:09:25.160
<v Speaker 1>in Washington, DC so we could hold a Bible upside down,

0:09:25.480 --> 0:09:30.559
<v Speaker 1>desecrating a house of worship while simultaneously desecrating the Constitution,

0:09:31.080 --> 0:09:36.040
<v Speaker 1>while simultaneously desecrating the presidency. The worst of us have

0:09:36.160 --> 0:09:40.720
<v Speaker 1>obtained power, whether it's the drug addle Elon Musk, the

0:09:40.800 --> 0:09:45.760
<v Speaker 1>fascist Stephen Miller, or Stephen Miller's fascist wife who's left

0:09:45.760 --> 0:09:48.600
<v Speaker 1>the White House and asked with Elon Musk back to

0:09:49.000 --> 0:09:52.480
<v Speaker 1>star based City, Texas. No word on if Jony's going

0:09:52.559 --> 0:09:55.000
<v Speaker 1>to go for a visit as well, but at any rate,

0:09:55.240 --> 0:10:00.719
<v Speaker 1>the nut cutting, pork busting senator of decade ago, well,

0:10:01.080 --> 0:10:04.000
<v Speaker 1>she's dead and what's come to life in her place

0:10:04.400 --> 0:10:09.240
<v Speaker 1>is a hideous, deformed and deranged woman. Deformed in her character,

0:10:09.600 --> 0:10:15.840
<v Speaker 1>deranged in her politics, her moral compass broken, her judgment gone.

0:10:16.320 --> 0:10:21.160
<v Speaker 1>All that's left is this routed husk that demonstrates when

0:10:21.480 --> 0:10:25.440
<v Speaker 1>you stay under the bright lights in Washington and you

0:10:25.520 --> 0:10:29.040
<v Speaker 1>don't have an inner core and a soul and conviction,

0:10:29.520 --> 0:10:32.680
<v Speaker 1>you get burned from the inside out and you become

0:10:33.240 --> 0:10:37.800
<v Speaker 1>in no short time a version of Joony Ernst and man,

0:10:37.920 --> 0:10:41.240
<v Speaker 1>oh Man, is it grotesque to look at I hope

0:10:41.360 --> 0:10:45.080
<v Speaker 1>that the people in Iowa will fire this woman, because

0:10:45.160 --> 0:10:49.200
<v Speaker 1>lord knows, she doesn't care about them, the United States

0:10:49.559 --> 0:10:52.840
<v Speaker 1>or any of our kids' futures. What she cares about

0:10:53.120 --> 0:10:56.679
<v Speaker 1>is power. What she cares about is herself, and what

0:10:56.800 --> 0:11:01.320
<v Speaker 1>she worships isn't Jesus Christ. It's Don Trump. And Donald

0:11:01.320 --> 0:11:05.400
<v Speaker 1>Trump is stealing from you, stealing from me and from

0:11:05.520 --> 0:11:09.240
<v Speaker 1>all of our kids, and only the dumbest amongst us

0:11:09.520 --> 0:11:13.040
<v Speaker 1>can't see that's happening. And the problem is there are

0:11:13.080 --> 0:11:15.760
<v Speaker 1>too many of us that are indifferent to it, and

0:11:15.800 --> 0:11:19.240
<v Speaker 1>we stand to lose something that's very real, and that's

0:11:19.280 --> 0:11:23.400
<v Speaker 1>our country to a gangster and his thugs, his henchmen

0:11:23.520 --> 0:11:27.440
<v Speaker 1>and women, his pole up bureau of selfish women like

0:11:27.559 --> 0:11:32.199
<v Speaker 1>Joan e Ernst. This is the warning. I'm Steve Schmidt.

0:11:32.320 --> 0:11:34.920
<v Speaker 1>This is the warning. I invite you to join this

0:11:35.000 --> 0:11:39.320
<v Speaker 1>community where I promise to be honest, blunt and direct

0:11:39.640 --> 0:11:43.640
<v Speaker 1>about what is happening in this country. America is in crisis.
