1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:05,680 Speaker 1: This is the warning. Things are happening fast. The world 2 00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:09,320 Speaker 1: is changing in an instant. The United States of America, 3 00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:13,640 Speaker 1: the greatest force for liberty and freedom, human rights, and 4 00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:18,560 Speaker 1: human dignity, has suddenly switched sides. It has embraced the 5 00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:23,200 Speaker 1: madness of a Russian dictator's aggressive war, a criminal war 6 00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:27,000 Speaker 1: in Ukraine. This war in Ukraine was not started by 7 00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:31,000 Speaker 1: the Ukrainians. It was started by Vladimir Putin. The suggestion 8 00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:35,519 Speaker 1: by Donald Trump that President Zelenski is a dictator is 9 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:40,519 Speaker 1: a lie. It's obscene and it's absurd. President Zelenski is 10 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:44,080 Speaker 1: the leader of a nation. He was elected to lead 11 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:49,240 Speaker 1: that nation. That nation, Ukraine is at war because Vladimir 12 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 1: Putin does not respect the right of Ukraine to exist, 13 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 1: and he's made this clear many many times. What Donald 14 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 1: Trump has done is agree with Vladimir Putin. In fact, 15 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:08,520 Speaker 1: the Trump administration has nullified the existence of Ukraine by 16 00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 1: negotiating with the Russians in Saudi Arabia without a representative 17 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:18,399 Speaker 1: of the Ukrainian government. It is obscene for an American 18 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 1: president to demand the breakup and the carving up of 19 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 1: a sovereign nation, a nation that's fighting a war to 20 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 1: defend that sovereignty. It's even more obscene that the president 21 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 1: of the United States would hand that leader a document demanding, 22 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:39,280 Speaker 1: really in an extortion letter, all of that nation's minerals 23 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 1: and wealth that it should be handed over. There is 24 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: something special about the United States. Mostly it's that we're 25 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 1: the only country in the world made up of all 26 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 1: of the peoples of the world where every language known 27 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 1: to mankind is spoken commonly every day. This nation, made 28 00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:00,360 Speaker 1: up of all the world's people, has done more good 29 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 1: in the world than any other nation in world history. 30 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:09,080 Speaker 1: We have fed more people, liberated more people, cured more people, 31 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 1: we have lit the world. And now the President has 32 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 1: presented the United States to the world as a gangster state, 33 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 1: a powerful nation ready to exploit and shake down the 34 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 1: little ones. And by the way, when Donald Trump talks 35 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:29,120 Speaker 1: about Canada has no legitimate right to exist, it is 36 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 1: Putin's language, is language about Ukraine. What is it that 37 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 1: we are to look forward to? Is it? Deceeve Vladimir 38 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 1: Putin and Donald Trump standing next to President for Life 39 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 1: g in Red Square on May ninth for the victory parade. 40 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 1: We live in a moment where the entire world's order 41 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: that has sustained peace and the upward prosperity, an advancement 42 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 1: of mankind for eighty years, is falling apart for no 43 00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 1: good reason at all whatsoever other than the whim of 44 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 1: Donald Trump. Americans will rue the day that the United 45 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 1: States stabbed its allies in the back and broke faith 46 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 1: with the concept and ideas and ideals of freedom. It 47 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 1: is an abomination. Our national honor has been stained, our 48 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:21,920 Speaker 1: national character has been tarnished, and all of it is 49 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 1: because of Donald Trump, the most shameful president in the 50 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 1: history of the American Republic, which he is hard at 51 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 1: work attacking, trying to tear down, assaulting the rule of 52 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 1: law at the Justice Department, appointing the most unfit cabinet 53 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 1: in American history. This is a moment of danger. We 54 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: are on the edge of momentous events and they will 55 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 1: be very costly. There will be a high price to 56 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 1: pay for the insanity that the American people let loose 57 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 1: with forty nine zero point nine percent of the vote, 58 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: when they gave the country to a man who disdains democracy, 59 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: and no one cared.
