1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:04,680 Speaker 1: It is Tuesday, July of the fifteenth. This is the warning. 2 00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:09,559 Speaker 2: What is the state of the Trump administration at this hour? Well, 3 00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:13,360 Speaker 2: at some level, Donald Trump is the most powerful president 4 00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:16,800 Speaker 2: that we've ever seen in the country. That's important because 5 00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:21,360 Speaker 2: the Republicans in the Senate and in the House, coequal 6 00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:26,680 Speaker 2: branch of government, have completely capitulated to the leader of 7 00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:31,680 Speaker 2: their faction, which has become a gang and organized conspiracy 8 00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:36,840 Speaker 2: for the purposes of holding power to give out favors 9 00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 2: to the people who finance the elections quid pro quote. 10 00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:46,840 Speaker 2: So more than anything else, what Donald Trump has achieved 11 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:50,640 Speaker 2: during these first couple of months in office is the 12 00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:56,279 Speaker 2: whole sale normalization of corruption. The President of the United 13 00:00:56,360 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 2: States has pilfered billions of doc raising his net wealth 14 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 2: for the first time in his life to a number 15 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:09,680 Speaker 2: that makes him a real billionaire. And he did it 16 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:13,560 Speaker 2: the old fashioned way through a form of public graft. 17 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 2: Now Jared and Ivanka, who left the White House in 18 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 2: twenty twenty one and embarrassment in disgrace, have rejoined fully 19 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 2: America's gilded elites. Here they are at the Allening Company conference. 20 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 2: Now appreciate this about Jared Kushner. He was unable to 21 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 2: secure a classified clearance, and so Donald Trump had to 22 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 2: give him special dispensation. And once he had it, there 23 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 2: was no person who was more interested in the nation's 24 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 2: most closely guarded secrets than Jared. He was an insatiable 25 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 2: consumer of American intelligence. And so it came to be 26 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 2: six months after the Donald leaves office, Jared Kushner gets 27 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 2: two billion dollars of investment from the Saudis. Now his 28 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 2: company is one of the driving vehicles as Trump does 29 00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 2: hotel deals from Albania to Serbia and all of the 30 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 2: places in the world where the light doesn't shine so 31 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 2: brightly here at home. The CEO of CNN, David's assof 32 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:27,640 Speaker 2: a business failure, who yet pays himself fifty three million 33 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,359 Speaker 2: dollars a year. It's the head of a public company 34 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:34,639 Speaker 2: losing money walks hand in hand with Jared and Ivanka 35 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 2: in this great season of corruption. I wonder at the 36 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 2: Allen and Company conference, if there was even five minutes 37 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,919 Speaker 2: of discussion to talk about the concentration camps that are 38 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 2: being built. Does David Allison, the new boss over at CBS. 39 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 2: Does David Allison intend to cover that? Does his new guru, 40 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 2: fresh off the Bezos wedding. Barry Weiss intend to cover 41 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 2: it when her undefined role at CBS becomes more clear. 42 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 2: Everywhere we look in America, what is happening in plain 43 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 2: sight is obscured by the media, while the lawlessness that 44 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 2: is happening in plain sight is declared legal by the 45 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 2: government officials who have said they have the power now 46 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 2: to make the law, to do as they wish. And 47 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 2: if you don't like it, well, as Tom Homan told 48 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 2: the crowd of young fascists at the Turning Point convention. 49 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 3: I'm not going anywhere either. As the men and women 50 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 3: of Ice, We're going to do the job the clothes 51 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 3: Trump games to do. And let's talk about the hate. 52 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 3: I've never evenfore seen in my career such hate against 53 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 3: the men and women of Ice in the Borderatrol. That 54 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 3: gentleman just standing here, he ain't got the balls to 55 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 3: put a bad john and go stand in there. 56 00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 1: Think they'll come the ground. The men and. 57 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 3: Women of Ice have a dangerous job already. I was 58 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 3: one of them. I was the first actor. I was 59 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 3: first director of Ice. I actually came up to the rinks, 60 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 3: the twenty thousand men and women that worked for me. 61 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,040 Speaker 3: I never asked them to do anything I didn't do myself, 62 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,479 Speaker 3: and I was one of them. I wore the green uniform. 63 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 3: I was a bar matual agent. I know I would 64 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:22,599 Speaker 3: like to stay on a dirt trail. Three o'clock in 65 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,479 Speaker 3: the morning, a center goes off. What's coming north? They 66 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 3: don't know. Is it just an illegal amen look for 67 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 3: a better life or is a heavily armed drugs motor. 68 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 1: They don't know. 69 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 3: They're gonna stand there and take it on. These are 70 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 3: the bravest men and women this nation have. 71 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:40,360 Speaker 2: Speaking of which Gavin Newsom one of his first guests 72 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 2: on his podcast, of Course with Charlie Kirk. There is 73 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:48,600 Speaker 2: no understanding to be had and none is needed. Fascism 74 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 2: is not something that can be compromised with, must be defeated. 75 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:58,719 Speaker 2: And though Trump's fascism growls with menace and he's teeming 76 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 2: with violence on a its edges, it has not yet 77 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 2: fully metastasized. And so it is possible to defeat this 78 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 2: with a moral movement, with peaceful means, peaceful protest, a 79 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 2: disciplined opposition, and that's what's called for in this moment. 80 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 2: All over the country. The American people will soon start 81 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 2: to see this, and this idea that we are to 82 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:30,039 Speaker 2: have running around the country a masked army where the 83 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 2: people they work for are not entitled to know their 84 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 2: badge numbers and to see their faces, is nonsense, and 85 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 2: it must be fought back. 86 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 1: Against lest we lose freedom. 87 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 2: One of the fundamental freedoms that Franklin Roosevelt talked about 88 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 2: is freedom from fear. And we have now scores of 89 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 2: tens of millions of Hispanic Americans who must live in fear, 90 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,600 Speaker 2: even if they've been in the country as an American 91 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 2: city for every moment, in every breath of their life, 92 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 2: and even if their ancestors have been American citizens for 93 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:08,600 Speaker 2: eight generations. 94 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:14,600 Speaker 1: Now they must worry about this and this and this. 95 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:19,039 Speaker 2: And in a country where scores of tens of millions 96 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 2: of people live in fear, nobody gets to live in peace. 97 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 2: And that's what we have to talk about, because we're 98 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 2: out of fork in the road. 99 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 1: And there are two models. 100 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 2: There's a model that says, we the people, we decide, 101 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:39,679 Speaker 2: and the American system is sublime. The American system guarantees, 102 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:44,840 Speaker 2: to the maximum degree possible a balance of power so 103 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:48,840 Speaker 2: that liberty may be preserved. But Donald Trump has said no, 104 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:52,160 Speaker 2: there's a better system. I'll have all the power, and 105 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 2: if I share it with a few people like Pam 106 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:59,600 Speaker 2: Bondi and Pete Hegseth and Tulsea Gabbert and Robert Kennedy 107 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,039 Speaker 2: will be able to make America great again. 108 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,919 Speaker 1: Does that make sense? It does not make sense. 109 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 2: And it's why prices are going up and jobs are disappearing. 110 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 2: It's why Medicaid is going away for seventeen million vulnerable 111 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 2: people to pay for a secret police force. Elon Musk 112 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 2: and the Maga Congress have decimated the FAA. They've cut 113 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 2: the Weather Service, destroyed public broadcasting and cut off huge 114 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 2: parts of the country from life saving information. They've tried 115 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 2: to sell the public lands, and they've tried to take 116 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 2: away every rule that protects your drinking water while adding 117 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 2: astonishingly trillions of dollars to the. 118 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 1: Debt for trillion to be exact. 119 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 2: The government is corrupt, the government is incompetent. MAGA is fascist. 120 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 2: The Democrats are very weak. The country is in crisis, 121 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 2: and the America and people must decide what it is 122 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 2: that they intend to do about it. Get on their 123 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 2: knees and bow to Trump, or stand up and fight 124 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 2: for liberty that is being taken away day by day 125 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 2: by a regime that hasn't yet heard the words no, 126 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 2: but must hear them soon lest we lose our rights 127 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 2: to say them.
