WEBVTT - Trump's Pressure Campaign Forces New Iran Calculations plus When Immigration Meets Education 0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:02.280 We've got some breaking news. We get to start the 0:00:02.320 --> 0:00:06.200 show with Donald Trump is now calling off attacks. We're 0:00:06.240 --> 0:00:10.559 now being told on Iran. Now, this is breaking, as 0:00:10.800 --> 0:00:15.000 I am recording President Trump backing off a plan to 0:00:15.080 --> 0:00:18.800 launch powerful news strikes against Iran, saying late this weekend 0:00:19.760 --> 0:00:22.919 that it was asked by several Middle Eastern countries to 0:00:23.040 --> 0:00:26.639 hold off as they reached the quote perimeters of a 0:00:26.760 --> 0:00:30.760 new deal quote unquote. It was reported on Friday that 0:00:30.840 --> 0:00:35.080 the US and Israel militaries were striking as early as 0:00:35.080 --> 0:00:40.040 this weekend, targeting Iranian energy infrastructure, but Trump late on 0:00:40.120 --> 0:00:43.400 Saturday said, quote, we have just been asked by Iran 0:00:43.600 --> 0:00:46.040 and other Middle Eastern countries to hold off any attacks 0:00:46.040 --> 0:00:50.159 in the perimeter, in the perimeters of a deal that 0:00:50.280 --> 0:00:55.440 has begun to get agreed too now quote This would 0:00:55.480 --> 0:00:59.160 include the immediate, complete and total opening of the Hormuz 0:00:59.200 --> 0:01:03.200 Strait and an end to Iran's nuclear threat. Trump wrote 0:01:03.240 --> 0:01:06.680 on True Social Then he said, based on this request, 0:01:06.720 --> 0:01:09.560 I have agreed, for the future benefit of the world 0:01:09.720 --> 0:01:13.720 and likewise the survival of a successful and prosperous Iran, 0:01:14.240 --> 0:01:17.520 to cancel the attack, subject to being able to rapidly 0:01:17.560 --> 0:01:21.240 make a deal. Quote unquote, Trump, who did not disclose 0:01:21.280 --> 0:01:25.679 the details of the agreement, has several times before claimed 0:01:25.720 --> 0:01:28.600 to be mirroring a deal with Iran. Unfortunately, the IRGC 0:01:29.520 --> 0:01:33.360 ruins it every time. We also know that Iranian sources 0:01:34.000 --> 0:01:37.480 denied the present statement on Sunday, saying the claim that 0:01:37.560 --> 0:01:42.800 a deal was nearly in place was quote unquote completely baseless. Now, 0:01:43.120 --> 0:01:45.920 why do I read that for you? It's actually pretty clear. 0:01:46.480 --> 0:01:48.920 You have a civil war that is happening in Iran. 0:01:49.360 --> 0:01:52.600 It is not really clear who's in charge of the country. 0:01:52.920 --> 0:01:55.040 We know the de facto leadership of the country is 0:01:55.040 --> 0:01:58.840 the URGC, and that is a terrorist organization. They do 0:01:58.920 --> 0:02:02.120 not want to give it and have a normal nation. 0:02:02.560 --> 0:02:08.040 That is obvious. Now the Farce news agency they have 0:02:08.120 --> 0:02:11.359 come out saying this, the Islamic Republic of Iran has 0:02:11.400 --> 0:02:13.880 reached no agreement regarding the reopening of the Strait of 0:02:13.880 --> 0:02:18.880 Hormus and the reports published and in this regard our false. 0:02:19.600 --> 0:02:22.839 That is what a quote military source in Tehran told 0:02:23.200 --> 0:02:28.240 the country's semi official Farce news agency. The source added quote, 0:02:28.480 --> 0:02:31.440 as long as the United States continues its hostile actions 0:02:31.440 --> 0:02:35.480 and acts of aggression, the Strait of Hormus will remain closed. 0:02:36.120 --> 0:02:39.200 Trump's announcement came hours after he received a call that 0:02:39.200 --> 0:02:45.119 he says from the Crown Prince Mohammad Ben Salmon, known 0:02:45.160 --> 0:02:49.400 as NBS, the de facto ruler of Saudi Arabia. The 0:02:49.440 --> 0:02:53.959 Crown Prince quote expressed concern and asked for clarity about 0:02:53.960 --> 0:02:57.760 the plan of action. Again, this was for Donald Trump 0:02:57.800 --> 0:03:01.000 to go after their energy infhatsy structure. That could include 0:03:01.040 --> 0:03:04.200 their power plants, It could include their water plants. It 0:03:04.240 --> 0:03:08.280 could certainly include their ole and gas infrastructure, which is 0:03:08.480 --> 0:03:10.959 how Iran makes any money at all. 0:03:12.200 --> 0:03:12.359 Now. 0:03:12.400 --> 0:03:16.239 On Sunday, the state run Saudi pres agency said that 0:03:16.280 --> 0:03:21.359 their defective leader NBS stressed the need to quote prioritize 0:03:21.480 --> 0:03:25.959 dialogue to reduce escalation and the importance of making every 0:03:26.040 --> 0:03:29.600 possible effort to achieve calm that paves the way for 0:03:29.720 --> 0:03:33.919 diplomatic solutions. Now you look at all this and I 0:03:34.000 --> 0:03:36.600 think there's a couple of things here at one. I 0:03:36.600 --> 0:03:39.280 don't think it's crazy to say that we've been here before. 0:03:40.240 --> 0:03:43.720 I do think the President showing a lot of strength 0:03:43.880 --> 0:03:46.240 and as well as Israel showing a lot of strength, 0:03:46.600 --> 0:03:49.920 and the attacks have been pretty damaging that the President's 0:03:49.920 --> 0:03:52.240 done and then stating what he was going to do 0:03:52.360 --> 0:03:56.920 next has clearly had a major impact on the President's 0:03:56.960 --> 0:03:59.640 decision here. All right, so all right, let me rephrase 0:03:59.680 --> 0:04:04.480 that on Iran's decision to maybe come back to the table. Now, 0:04:04.520 --> 0:04:07.120 they could be pausing just to buy time, because when 0:04:07.160 --> 0:04:10.080 you're dealing with terrorists, that makes sense, but you do 0:04:10.160 --> 0:04:14.080 have the civil war that is taking place within Iran 0:04:14.480 --> 0:04:19.840 and their power structure. Now there's also interesting indications. And 0:04:19.960 --> 0:04:21.839 you've got to go back and look at the oil 0:04:21.920 --> 0:04:25.640 markets so that you understand there is what the President's saying, 0:04:25.800 --> 0:04:29.040 there's what Iran is saying, and then some say there's 0:04:29.120 --> 0:04:32.479 truth in the middle of what reality may look like. 0:04:32.600 --> 0:04:34.680 And where do you find what the middle is You 0:04:34.800 --> 0:04:38.560 look at oil prices. Here is what has happened since 0:04:38.600 --> 0:04:42.000 these announcements and the back and forth have come out. 0:04:42.320 --> 0:04:45.839 Oil prices have dropped. I'm say it again. Oil prices 0:04:45.839 --> 0:04:48.640 have dropped after Trump orders US forces to hold off 0:04:49.000 --> 0:04:52.520 on new strikes against Iran. And the oil prices didn't 0:04:52.520 --> 0:04:55.560 fall just a little bit, they fell sharply. When Donald 0:04:55.600 --> 0:04:58.120 Trump said he would quote order US forces to hold 0:04:58.160 --> 0:05:01.320 off on any new strikes. This is coming from the 0:05:01.360 --> 0:05:05.200 ap Oil prices fell sharply Sunday after President Trump said 0:05:05.200 --> 0:05:07.840 he would order US forces to hold off on new 0:05:07.920 --> 0:05:10.560 strikes against i Ran, claiming that a deal to end 0:05:10.600 --> 0:05:13.760 the fighting in the Middle East was near. A resolution 0:05:13.880 --> 0:05:16.240 to the conflict, which has lasted more than five months, 0:05:16.240 --> 0:05:20.279 could give oil shippers the ability to send vessels out 0:05:20.279 --> 0:05:22.840 of the Persian golf, where tankers of oil and other 0:05:22.960 --> 0:05:26.479 prices have been trapped during the fighting. The price of 0:05:26.600 --> 0:05:30.559 US crewed fell five percent to eighty dollars and seventy 0:05:30.600 --> 0:05:33.599 nine cents per barrel Sunday night. The price of brint crude, 0:05:33.600 --> 0:05:36.560 the international standard, fell five percent as well, to eighty 0:05:36.600 --> 0:05:39.640 three eighty seven per barrel. Oil prices have been swinging 0:05:39.680 --> 0:05:41.919 widely since the US and Israel launched the attacks on 0:05:41.960 --> 0:05:45.920 Iran in late February, pushing past one hundred dollars a 0:05:45.920 --> 0:05:50.280 barrel multiple times during the spring. Now, as the conflict continues, 0:05:50.680 --> 0:05:55.279 high oil prices seeped into the cost of gasoline, jet fuel, 0:05:55.360 --> 0:05:59.000 and many other products that are delivered using diesel. Motorists 0:05:59.040 --> 0:06:02.360 have paid more at the pump, and customers shelled out 0:06:02.400 --> 0:06:06.000 more for airfare do the higher jet cost prices in 0:06:06.040 --> 0:06:08.880 some countries that fuel supplies ran low, leading the to 0:06:09.160 --> 0:06:13.279 rationing and sporadic closures of schools and government offices. Now 0:06:13.320 --> 0:06:16.120 again this is coming from the AP. Then they went 0:06:16.160 --> 0:06:19.680 on to say this Meanwhile, oil and gas companies amassed 0:06:19.760 --> 0:06:23.240 huge profits in the spring, doe to the high oil prices, 0:06:23.320 --> 0:06:27.280 gasoline and diesel prices that resulted when petroleum shippers couldn't 0:06:27.279 --> 0:06:29.960 get through the critical suit of her moves the narrow 0:06:30.000 --> 0:06:33.719 waterway that borders Iran due the fighting, prices for US 0:06:33.760 --> 0:06:36.599 crew to oil on Sunday night remained about twenty percent 0:06:36.680 --> 0:06:41.360 higher than before the conflict began. So down five percent overall, 0:06:41.400 --> 0:06:45.760 still up twenty percent. And look, the president knows that 0:06:45.839 --> 0:06:48.720 the midterms are coming, he knows or less than a 0:06:48.760 --> 0:06:52.080 hundred days away. Is that on his mind? I'm going 0:06:52.120 --> 0:06:54.359 to answer that question, of course it is. Is it 0:06:54.520 --> 0:06:55.440 everything to him? 0:06:55.720 --> 0:06:55.760 No? 0:06:56.600 --> 0:06:58.720 Is he gonna let a rand use it for leverage? 0:06:59.040 --> 0:07:02.040 I think it's very clear there's the answer that as hell. No, 0:07:03.200 --> 0:07:06.120 the President sees this as a national security issue. The 0:07:06.160 --> 0:07:09.880 President's committed to it from a national security issue, which 0:07:09.920 --> 0:07:13.680 means that the midterms are in essence second, the politics 0:07:13.680 --> 0:07:18.360 are second to national security. The interesting part is Iran 0:07:18.520 --> 0:07:21.800 tried to use the midterms as a way to get 0:07:21.880 --> 0:07:25.160 out of a real agreement with the US that had 0:07:25.200 --> 0:07:30.080 real teeth. They thought, because of politics, that Donald Trump 0:07:30.080 --> 0:07:34.560 would flinch first, that he would take do a bad deal. Now, 0:07:35.040 --> 0:07:36.840 there was a deal that was given the President and 0:07:36.880 --> 0:07:38.680 it was a bad deal. I've said this before, I 0:07:38.680 --> 0:07:42.240 says on TV. I think the first big deal that 0:07:42.360 --> 0:07:45.640 was blown up, no pun intended, was not a great 0:07:45.680 --> 0:07:47.800 deal that was given to the President by the Vice 0:07:47.800 --> 0:07:49.560 President Jady Vance. I think it was a weak deal. 0:07:49.600 --> 0:07:50.720 I think it was a bad deal. I think it 0:07:50.720 --> 0:07:52.880 was a soft deal, and I think the President also 0:07:52.880 --> 0:07:56.280 has learned from that. So now this second go round 0:07:56.280 --> 0:07:58.480 with this deal, I think you're looking at something that 0:07:58.480 --> 0:08:00.480 could be very very different based on what I've been 0:08:00.480 --> 0:08:03.520 told internally from those in around this deal at the 0:08:03.520 --> 0:08:06.760 White House and outside of it as well. The second 0:08:06.800 --> 0:08:10.960 part of this equation, and it's an important one, is 0:08:10.960 --> 0:08:13.920 that the present understands that, look, if I can get 0:08:13.920 --> 0:08:17.080 a deal done because I am doing putting maximum military 0:08:17.080 --> 0:08:20.200 pressure on them and that gets it done quickly, great, 0:08:20.360 --> 0:08:24.160 because that's where we are. The talking doesn't work. You 0:08:24.280 --> 0:08:26.920 pound them in submission, then you wait, you see, if 0:08:26.920 --> 0:08:28.880 they want to get a deal done, and that seems 0:08:28.880 --> 0:08:32.760 to be where we are now, I am cautiously optimistic. 0:08:34.320 --> 0:08:39.800 Migrant K through twelve enrollment has actually fallen in Massachusetts 0:08:40.520 --> 0:08:46.040 with Trump's migration enforcement. Yeah, the number of migrant students 0:08:46.120 --> 0:08:50.960 enrolled in high schools across Massachusetts tumbled more than twenty 0:08:51.120 --> 0:08:56.280 percent with President Donald Trump's enforcement of the nation's immigration laws. 0:08:56.960 --> 0:09:01.280 The numbers come from a study conducted by Round Universities 0:09:01.920 --> 0:09:05.960 and Burg Institute, which curunts the numbers from the two 0:09:05.960 --> 0:09:08.920 thousand and seven two thousand and eight school year up 0:09:08.960 --> 0:09:12.280 to the twenty twenty four to twenty five school years. Now, 0:09:12.400 --> 0:09:17.160 what they saw was well staggering. According to the study, 0:09:17.960 --> 0:09:22.040 migrant student high school enrollment went from a high of 0:09:22.080 --> 0:09:25.760 more than six thousand, four hundred students in twenty twenty 0:09:25.800 --> 0:09:30.200 four to five thousand, three hundred last year. Now that 0:09:30.320 --> 0:09:34.560 is a massive decrease amid the following enrollment. By the way, 0:09:34.559 --> 0:09:39.240 the numbers also show the Massachusetts schools are still graduating 0:09:39.920 --> 0:09:43.640 many migrant students who were not and are not I 0:09:43.640 --> 0:09:47.320 should say, proficient in the English language. Now, how do 0:09:47.360 --> 0:09:51.439 you graduate from high school if you're not proficient? In English. 0:09:52.120 --> 0:09:56.920 That's a question everyone should be asking. Quote, the landscape 0:09:57.280 --> 0:10:01.920 is one that changes really rapidly. Districts are constantly feeling 0:10:01.960 --> 0:10:03.920 like they are on the back foot in terms of 0:10:04.000 --> 0:10:09.080 responding to immigrant student needs. That's what Anne Mattil, the 0:10:09.160 --> 0:10:13.160 reports author and research scientists at the Amberg set according 0:10:13.160 --> 0:10:17.000 to The Boston Globe. Now, the Globe reported that only 0:10:17.280 --> 0:10:21.640 a tiny six percent of high school newcomers who arrive 0:10:21.720 --> 0:10:26.120 in the US with low English skills graduated with proficiency 0:10:26.880 --> 0:10:30.880 in English. Let me say that again. This is again 0:10:31.400 --> 0:10:36.120 the Globe saying this, six percent of high school newcomers 0:10:36.120 --> 0:10:39.920 who arrive in the US with low English skills graduated 0:10:39.920 --> 0:10:45.280 with proficiency in English almost in the I mean, let 0:10:45.360 --> 0:10:49.120 me just pause there and say this. If a kid 0:10:49.240 --> 0:10:53.520 arrives in the state schools without being conversant in English 0:10:53.880 --> 0:10:57.200 all right and able to read it, what they are 0:10:57.280 --> 0:11:01.479 doing is basically going to daycare because they are graduating 0:11:01.520 --> 0:11:05.640 without having gained those skills. That's a massive problem. We 0:11:05.760 --> 0:11:07.760 also know that it holds back the rest of the 0:11:07.800 --> 0:11:12.240 class because those that are trying to learn are having 0:11:12.280 --> 0:11:16.400 to wait because you're having to babysit people that aren't 0:11:16.400 --> 0:11:19.000 proficient in English who are trying to learn in English. 0:11:19.040 --> 0:11:23.640 You understand the domino effect here. Now, high scores are 0:11:23.679 --> 0:11:27.679 not the only ones lagging in English skills. According to 0:11:27.720 --> 0:11:32.199 Boston Herald, about half of the state's middle school students 0:11:32.920 --> 0:11:37.880 are not meeting Gray level literacy expectations. This is across 0:11:37.920 --> 0:11:41.840 the board, not just migrant students. The paper notes that 0:11:41.960 --> 0:11:45.559 a report by ed Trust found that nearly one hundred 0:11:45.600 --> 0:11:49.600 and fifty thousand of the students statewide fell well behind 0:11:49.640 --> 0:11:53.480 Gray level benchmarks. Again, this refers to all students, not 0:11:53.720 --> 0:11:57.760 just migrant children. Still, there's a sharp difference in literacy 0:11:57.800 --> 0:12:00.920 between wide and agent students on the one hand, with 0:12:01.000 --> 0:12:07.280 higher percentage of literacy and other ethnic groups on the other. Now, quote, 0:12:07.720 --> 0:12:12.160 the gaps are greatest for multi lingual learners, with between 0:12:12.200 --> 0:12:16.040 sixty five and seventy five percent of multi lingual learners 0:12:16.080 --> 0:12:22.040 in grades six through eight and ten not yet meeting expectations. 0:12:22.280 --> 0:12:26.440 The report also found You take that into consideration for 0:12:26.480 --> 0:12:31.480 a second. You have schools that have been overrun with thousands, 0:12:31.800 --> 0:12:35.720 not hundreds, but thousands of illegal immigrant students. We absorb 0:12:35.800 --> 0:12:40.840 them to the system, regardless of any foundation in the 0:12:41.000 --> 0:12:44.560 English language. We then allow them to be in our classroom. 0:12:44.640 --> 0:12:47.720 And it's not just one student in the back. It's 0:12:48.320 --> 0:12:51.880 thousands of students throughout the school system in Boston, for example, 0:12:51.920 --> 0:12:54.840 more than six seven thousand at this point, right who 0:12:54.880 --> 0:13:01.440 then the teachers are ordered to teach them, ordered to 0:13:01.480 --> 0:13:05.560 teach them. The teachers are saying they don't know anything, 0:13:06.040 --> 0:13:11.440 right like, they don't They can't keep up. Not only 0:13:11.480 --> 0:13:14.040 can they not keep up, but they're holding the rest 0:13:14.080 --> 0:13:18.080 of students back. So what is Donald Trump? Doney said, Look, 0:13:18.120 --> 0:13:19.960 you don't get to invade this country and then we 0:13:20.040 --> 0:13:22.720 try to educate you, which is holding our American kids back, 0:13:23.280 --> 0:13:26.760 and so we're going to crack down. Now, here's what's interesting. 0:13:27.679 --> 0:13:31.840 With fewer migrant students enrolling, it seems like the desperate 0:13:31.920 --> 0:13:36.080 numbers may level off as quote, fewer non English speaking 0:13:36.160 --> 0:13:40.600 students enroll in the state schools that you're paying for. 0:13:41.679 --> 0:13:45.320 Education budgets will also likely find cuts looming in the 0:13:45.320 --> 0:13:48.560 near future if the number of migrants continue to climb 0:13:48.600 --> 0:13:51.080 and fewer dollars will we need to serve the migrant students, 0:13:51.720 --> 0:13:54.839 which explains why so many schools are okay with the 0:13:54.840 --> 0:13:58.000 illegal immigrants coming in, because for every pupil, you get 0:13:58.800 --> 0:14:02.560 you then get a bigger check from the government. So 0:14:03.280 --> 0:14:09.319 there is an incentive to turn our education systems into 0:14:09.360 --> 0:14:14.440 daycare systems because if you're a school system, you get 0:14:14.480 --> 0:14:17.120 money regardless of if they can speak English or not 0:14:17.280 --> 0:14:22.440 for your school. The teachers' unions only care about money. 0:14:22.920 --> 0:14:28.480 The teachers' unions only care about cash, and they only 0:14:28.520 --> 0:14:32.280 care about how many kids show up. If you get 0:14:32.320 --> 0:14:35.880 paid per customer, do you care if they speak English 0:14:35.960 --> 0:14:41.000 or not? This article says that the educators are those 0:14:41.120 --> 0:14:45.360 running the schools. They don't mind the non English speaking 0:14:45.400 --> 0:14:49.600 students because they get more money, which means they have 0:14:49.680 --> 0:14:54.880 more cash for them and their coffers. Now here's also thing. 0:14:54.920 --> 0:14:59.200 It's interesting after Joe Biden and his administration flooded the 0:14:59.240 --> 0:15:03.360 country with mi millions of uneducated migrants, forcing so many 0:15:03.400 --> 0:15:08.400 school systems to hide education budgets until they had to 0:15:08.480 --> 0:15:12.360 hike them. Why do they do that because they had 0:15:12.400 --> 0:15:16.160 to meet the demand caused by Biden's open border policies 0:15:16.920 --> 0:15:19.800 and then democratic controlled cities. By the way, we're thrilled 0:15:19.840 --> 0:15:23.560 to find reasons to pump more tax dollars into failing 0:15:23.600 --> 0:15:27.160 schools because then it went back to them and their coffers, 0:15:27.560 --> 0:15:31.160 and they're like, great, bring us all students. We don't 0:15:31.200 --> 0:15:34.800 care for babysitting them. We don't care for a daycare. 0:15:35.560 --> 0:15:37.920 We don't care if it's holding our other students back. 0:15:38.800 --> 0:15:43.680 We don't care for graduating kids, making these diplomas literally meaningless. 0:15:44.000 --> 0:15:48.760 We are socially promoting them. Now, what happened is you're 0:15:48.800 --> 0:15:51.960 giving more your tax money than ever before the legal immigrants. 0:15:52.520 --> 0:15:55.280 That is not going to give your kids, American kids, 0:15:55.600 --> 0:16:00.240 kids that are in this country legally the best education possible. 0:16:00.960 --> 0:16:03.160 What they're also doing, we're learning now is they had 0:16:03.160 --> 0:16:05.880 to dumb down the curriculum to try to make it 0:16:05.960 --> 0:16:08.600 not look so bad for the kids that didn't understand 0:16:08.600 --> 0:16:10.520 the words coming out of the mouths the teachers who 0:16:10.520 --> 0:16:13.920 are speaking English, teaching in English, and books that are 0:16:13.960 --> 0:16:17.520 written in English. This is another reason, by the way, 0:16:17.520 --> 0:16:19.960 why I'm in favor of school choice. This is another 0:16:20.000 --> 0:16:24.040 reason why Americans should be angry at what the socialists 0:16:24.040 --> 0:16:26.520 and communist and Marxis are doing in this country. They 0:16:26.520 --> 0:16:30.720 are destroying our children's futures by caring more about illegal 0:16:30.800 --> 0:16:32.720 immigrants and the numbers they can get in this country 0:16:32.800 --> 0:16:37.200 they do about educating America's kids. When you have and 0:16:37.280 --> 0:16:39.600 I go back to the stat when you go back 0:16:39.600 --> 0:16:42.600 to just six percent of high school newcomers who arrive 0:16:42.640 --> 0:16:46.400 in the US with low English skills graduate with proficiency 0:16:46.440 --> 0:16:50.320 in English, that tells you the entire school system is dead. 0:16:51.240 --> 0:16:55.800 It is broken. It is a daycare system. It's a 0:16:55.880 --> 0:16:58.840 daycare system for parents who drop their kids off and 0:16:58.920 --> 0:17:01.760 not have to be involved in their kids' lives. It 0:17:01.840 --> 0:17:05.040 is a daycare system for illegal immigrants who come this country. 0:17:05.080 --> 0:17:09.119 It's a reward system for illegal immigrants that are coming 0:17:09.160 --> 0:17:13.080 into this country. And what happens to our kids. They're 0:17:13.119 --> 0:17:17.160 not proficient in anything anymore because the illegal immigrants are 0:17:17.160 --> 0:17:20.520 holding back the kids in school because they have to, 0:17:20.600 --> 0:17:23.760 they have no choice, because the educators are letting them in. 0:17:26.280 --> 0:17:30.440 There is a civil war that is getting bigger and bigger. 0:17:30.920 --> 0:17:34.040 And this is a war that well many did not 0:17:34.160 --> 0:17:38.760 see actually happening. It's in the Democratic Party. Now. I 0:17:38.800 --> 0:17:42.199 have been involved in the political world for thirty plus years. 0:17:43.080 --> 0:17:47.119 I have seen civil wars within the GOP. I saw 0:17:47.200 --> 0:17:52.439 when Republican establishment rhinos tried to destroy anyone who was 0:17:52.520 --> 0:17:57.280 connected or helping build or advocating for the Tea Party movement. 0:17:58.200 --> 0:18:00.520 I saw people that lied and acted like they were 0:18:00.640 --> 0:18:07.760 Tea Party. Individuals for example, who actually hated the Tea Party, 0:18:07.760 --> 0:18:10.080 but they were trying to figure out what to do. 0:18:10.960 --> 0:18:15.960 I watched Republicans live and get elected claiming they were 0:18:15.960 --> 0:18:18.320 in the Tea Party, and then when they got to Washington, 0:18:18.359 --> 0:18:21.320 they were the rhinos that many of us believe they 0:18:21.320 --> 0:18:26.160 always were going to be before. Now, I've watched civil wars. 0:18:26.600 --> 0:18:29.360 I worked with the Bush administration two thousand and four, 0:18:29.480 --> 0:18:32.400 was on his reelect campaign in two thousand and four, 0:18:32.560 --> 0:18:37.080 and I witnessed the losing of power in two thousand 0:18:37.119 --> 0:18:40.520 and six and the civil war that erupted within the 0:18:40.520 --> 0:18:44.040 Republican Party. I saw the civil War and the Republican 0:18:44.040 --> 0:18:47.320 Party when it was John McCain, for example, as the 0:18:47.359 --> 0:18:51.600 nominee against Barack Obama. I saw the next civil war 0:18:52.160 --> 0:18:55.600 when there's a guy who not even a Republican, Mitt Romney, 0:18:55.680 --> 0:18:58.240 who acted like he was got the nomination, and well 0:18:58.320 --> 0:19:01.359 we know the rest of that story. Now. During all 0:19:01.400 --> 0:19:05.160 of that, what didn't happen was Democrats not being united. 0:19:06.119 --> 0:19:08.480 I have said this for a long time. Republicans are 0:19:08.560 --> 0:19:12.200 pros at gaining power and then screwing it all up 0:19:12.280 --> 0:19:15.760 because we have so many infighting, civil wars within the 0:19:15.800 --> 0:19:19.160 party in Washington, d C. And what I've said for 0:19:19.240 --> 0:19:24.280 decades is that Democrats are better. I want to say 0:19:24.280 --> 0:19:27.199 that again. Democrats historically are much better that when they 0:19:27.240 --> 0:19:31.239 get power, everyone seems to get in line and they 0:19:31.280 --> 0:19:33.320 get things done. Now I believe most of what they 0:19:33.359 --> 0:19:37.240 get done actually hurts this country. But regardless, they get 0:19:37.440 --> 0:19:43.480 things done. They understand exactly what's at stake when you 0:19:43.480 --> 0:19:46.640 get power. They understand how to put people in line, 0:19:46.640 --> 0:19:49.800 they understand how to ice people out, they understand how 0:19:49.800 --> 0:19:52.000 to run a party. And I've said for years I 0:19:52.040 --> 0:19:56.480 wish Republicans were better at that. We're not, and so 0:19:56.640 --> 0:19:58.960 lots of times we get power. Great example is Donald 0:19:58.960 --> 0:20:01.879 Trump twenty sixteen, and there were many Republicans that were 0:20:01.960 --> 0:20:04.919 undermining President Trump the entire time he was in office. 0:20:04.960 --> 0:20:07.640 The first time. Hell, there was even Republicans that were 0:20:07.680 --> 0:20:12.360 advocating for impeachment. If you remember guys like Adam Kinsinger 0:20:12.400 --> 0:20:16.800 that claim they were a Republican right Liz Cheney, Cheney's daughter, 0:20:16.920 --> 0:20:20.679 another example of that. Now, we have seen civil wars 0:20:20.720 --> 0:20:23.399 that have strengthened the conservative movement. And the winning of 0:20:23.440 --> 0:20:26.840 Donald Trump is an example of that. And those that 0:20:26.880 --> 0:20:29.960 are around Donald Trump. We've also seen the excommunication of Rhinos 0:20:29.960 --> 0:20:32.760 who Donald Trump has helped get rid of. And that's 0:20:32.760 --> 0:20:36.159 good for the country. But ahead of the midterms, I 0:20:36.280 --> 0:20:40.720 was still incredibly worried about the Republicans yet again screwing 0:20:40.760 --> 0:20:43.720 it all up. Look at how we can't even get 0:20:43.760 --> 0:20:47.240 these Save Act passed because there's Rhino Republicans that Trump 0:20:47.240 --> 0:20:49.680 to help get rid of, that hate Donald Trump more 0:20:49.680 --> 0:20:51.639 than they love this country, and they refuse to do 0:20:51.680 --> 0:20:54.920 what the American people want, which is the Save Act. 0:20:55.480 --> 0:20:57.800 I say all that to then tell you the next 0:20:57.840 --> 0:21:01.119 part of this story. There is act actually now, and 0:21:01.160 --> 0:21:05.639 this is legitimate. There is right now in the Democratic 0:21:05.680 --> 0:21:09.720 Party a civil war that is happening between the socialists, 0:21:09.760 --> 0:21:13.720 Marxists and communists, the Democratic Socialists of America, which are 0:21:13.800 --> 0:21:17.800 in fact communists who are angry that the Democratic Party 0:21:17.840 --> 0:21:21.800 has not gone socialist Marxist communists enough for them. Now. 0:21:21.840 --> 0:21:24.359 I've never seen the Democratic Party be out of control 0:21:24.359 --> 0:21:26.639 like it is right now, and the leaders of the 0:21:26.640 --> 0:21:32.560 Democratic Party, they're just showing the cracks in their armor 0:21:32.720 --> 0:21:35.640 to the point where no one can deny this one 0:21:35.680 --> 0:21:38.280 example of that is just pure data on the Democratic 0:21:38.480 --> 0:21:42.680 National Committee. There is a very interesting story that came 0:21:42.680 --> 0:21:45.919 out and it was a story about how broke is 0:21:45.960 --> 0:21:50.800 the Democratic National Committee. Usually the party that is not 0:21:51.200 --> 0:21:55.280 in power is the party that's able to raise money. Well, 0:21:55.320 --> 0:21:58.880 guess what the Democratic National Committee Its finances are under 0:21:59.000 --> 0:22:03.960 quote significant pressure compared with the Republican National Committee. As 0:22:03.960 --> 0:22:07.240 of the latest campaign finance reports, the DNC ended June 0:22:07.280 --> 0:22:09.600 with about sixteen point three million in cash on hand. 0:22:10.280 --> 0:22:12.960 It also reported, and this is the number that really matters, 0:22:13.320 --> 0:22:16.200 eighteen point five million in debt, meaning it had more 0:22:16.240 --> 0:22:20.040 debt than cash, roughly a two point two million dollar 0:22:20.200 --> 0:22:24.000 net deficit. Where does that stand Again, it's the party 0:22:24.040 --> 0:22:26.240 that's out of power. It's us easier to get money 0:22:26.600 --> 0:22:28.960 and have people that give you cash when you're out 0:22:28.960 --> 0:22:30.840 of power, because you want to get your power back, 0:22:30.840 --> 0:22:33.359 and that's what inspires you. And you're not asleep at 0:22:33.359 --> 0:22:36.040 the wheel. You're angry. Right, Democrats should be able to 0:22:36.080 --> 0:22:38.320 raise tons of money against Donald Trump because well we 0:22:38.359 --> 0:22:42.840 know about Trump derangement syndrome. Well, let's compare the two 0:22:42.880 --> 0:22:46.440 point two million dollar deficit for the Democrat National Committee. 0:22:47.080 --> 0:22:50.080 Comparing it to the Republican National Committee. Well, the RNC 0:22:50.440 --> 0:22:53.080 has about twenty eight point five million, I'm gonna say 0:22:53.080 --> 0:22:56.119 that number again, twenty eight point five million in cash 0:22:56.240 --> 0:23:00.800 on hand and no debt, giving Republicans a very large 0:23:00.800 --> 0:23:04.960 financial advantage heading into the twenty twenty six midterms. Recent 0:23:05.040 --> 0:23:08.440 reporting also indicates some of the Democratic Party's largest donors 0:23:08.440 --> 0:23:12.280 have held back contributions after the twenty twenty four election disaster, 0:23:12.480 --> 0:23:16.280 the Joe Biden disaster, the Kamala Harris disaster, citing quote 0:23:16.280 --> 0:23:21.240 concerns about leadership, about strategy, and then also about spending. 0:23:21.880 --> 0:23:25.560 The Democratic National Committee has face internal tourmal as well. 0:23:25.640 --> 0:23:29.840 And this is all for reporting, including massive criticism of 0:23:29.880 --> 0:23:34.480 the chairman, Ken Martin's fundraising performance and then quote questions 0:23:34.520 --> 0:23:38.960 about the committee's financial management or mismanagement. Now, it's also 0:23:39.040 --> 0:23:42.040 worth noting that the DNC's finances are not the same 0:23:42.080 --> 0:23:45.560 thing as the Democratic parties overall cash and their financial position. 0:23:46.600 --> 0:23:49.119 But there are other groups like the Democratic Candidates and 0:23:49.200 --> 0:23:52.560 Congressional campaign committees known as the d trible C. There's 0:23:52.640 --> 0:23:56.080 outside packs, there's state parties, and they're trying to raise 0:23:56.080 --> 0:23:59.480 substantial sums of money. But it's very clear that they've 0:23:59.480 --> 0:24:03.560 got a fundraising problem right now. But that's not even 0:24:03.960 --> 0:24:07.320 the big civil war. I wanted you to understand the 0:24:07.320 --> 0:24:09.720 groundwork of just how bad it is before I got 0:24:09.720 --> 0:24:14.400 to the punchline, and that is this the Democratic Socialists 0:24:14.400 --> 0:24:19.600 of America. They have basically taken over the power that 0:24:19.640 --> 0:24:24.240 the Democratic National Committee used to have. Bill Maher, Yes, 0:24:24.320 --> 0:24:28.320 the same radical leftist Bill Maher who said recently that 0:24:28.400 --> 0:24:31.240 his vote was up for grabs went on vacation. And 0:24:31.320 --> 0:24:34.200 when he said this during an interview and it went viral, well, 0:24:34.240 --> 0:24:37.000 then of course the socialist, communists and Marxists lost their mind. 0:24:37.000 --> 0:24:39.720 The Democratic Party lost their mind, and they all turned 0:24:39.760 --> 0:24:42.080 on Bill Maher, which is exactly what Democrats do and 0:24:42.119 --> 0:24:44.600 socialist and communists do when you step out of line 0:24:44.760 --> 0:24:48.640 with them. I want you to listen to what Bill 0:24:48.680 --> 0:24:53.000 Maher said on his show talking about the Democratic Party 0:24:53.040 --> 0:24:55.959 and comparing it, by the way, to Donald Trump and 0:24:56.000 --> 0:24:59.719
