Folks. 3 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:24,439 Speaker 1: I don't normally spend a lot of time on this show, 4 00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:28,120 Speaker 1: or frankly, any of my shows talking about foreign affairs, 5 00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:32,519 Speaker 1: because I'm an expert in what happens in America and 6 00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:36,960 Speaker 1: in American politics. But I will tell you that what 7 00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:43,199 Speaker 1: is transpired in South Korea and has occupied our airwaves 8 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 1: and social media has my Spidey senses off in Itzzy. 9 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,960 Speaker 1: But let me start with my favorite topic, shall we, 10 00:00:53,280 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 1: which is goddamn democrats. Like Honestly, frankly, I can't tell 11 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:08,479 Speaker 1: you enough how many times I have said this over 12 00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 1: the last ten years. I am not asking for Democrats 13 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 1: to completely flip the table and say, well, if they're 14 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 1: not going to play by the rule of law, then 15 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 1: we're not going to play by the rule of law. No, 16 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 1: but there are times when you must recognize that the 17 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 1: law has its limitations. And right now, this both sides 18 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: is a bullshit that Democrats find themselves in with the 19 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 1: comparison the audacity, first of all, to compare what has 20 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 1: happened with Hunter Biden and Joe Biden pardoning him, and 21 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: the myriad of crimes that Donald Trump has committed and 22 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 1: also his inner circle has committed, and Donald Trump then 23 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 1: pardoned them all four the fact that Democrats are even uttering, 24 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 1: how can we possibly hold Donald Trump accountable when Joe 25 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 1: Biden pardons his unelected son for filling out a form improperly. 26 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:22,399 Speaker 1: But you want to compare that to thirty four felony counts. 27 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:26,080 Speaker 1: You want to compare that to hiding documents when you 28 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 1: were asked by the National Archives on multiple occasions to 29 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 1: return them. You want to compare that to can you 30 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,799 Speaker 1: do me a favor? Though? You want to compare that 31 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 1: to find me eleven seven hundred and sixty four votes? Though? 32 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,640 Speaker 1: You want to compare that to Mike Flynn being a 33 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:46,080 Speaker 1: foreign agent. You want to compare that to Steve Bannon 34 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 1: grifting off of the American people and telling them that 35 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 1: they were going to be paying for a brick to 36 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 1: build a wall that oh, Donald Trump said that Mexico 37 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 1: was going to pay for and then pocketing that money. 38 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 1: You want to compare that to Charles Kushner, Jared Kushner's daddy, 39 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 1: blackmailing and trying to pay off a prostitute to blackmail 40 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 1: his own sister, who is now going to be the 41 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 1: new ambassador to France. You want to compare Hunter Biden 42 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 1: to that, like, are y'all stupid? Like? That is the 43 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,960 Speaker 1: question that I have for establishment Democrats at this time. 44 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:24,240 Speaker 1: Are you all dumb? Because you act like you have 45 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 1: no fucking sense and you act as if you haven't 46 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 1: learned anything anything over the past ten years. So for 47 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 1: people to say that this pardon is gonna send Donald 48 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 1: Trump over the edge, bitch, you should have had a 49 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 1: parachute a long time ago, because we've been over the 50 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: edge for the last decade. Miss me with it. But 51 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 1: you want to talk about Joe Biden pardoning his son 52 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 1: on trumped up political charges that were only created so 53 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 1: that Merrick Garland's bullshit, lackluster, spineless Department of Justice could 54 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 1: have the perception of both sides. Did you hear the 55 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:18,480 Speaker 1: list of people and crimes that were committed by Donald 56 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 1: Trump and his inner circle? But Democrats right now have 57 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 1: themselves up in a tizzy over one pardon that if 58 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: his last name as Eric Holder, said former USAG said 59 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,919 Speaker 1: that if Hunter Biden's name last name had been Smith 60 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:44,159 Speaker 1: or Thompson, or anything other than Biden, he wouldn't have 61 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: been awaiting sentencing to begin with. So in the push 62 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 1: not to quote unquote play politics, all Merrick Garland has 63 00:04:55,400 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 1: done is play politics. And frankly, the only mistake that 64 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 1: Joe Biden made with regard to this is that he 65 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,840 Speaker 1: should have never said that he was never going to 66 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: pardon his son. He should have said, I'm going to 67 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 1: allow the Justice Department to move through their investigation, which 68 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:20,039 Speaker 1: is separate from my administration, and then we will see 69 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:24,600 Speaker 1: and keep it fucking moving. But the actions that Democrats 70 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 1: are taking right now are exactly the reason why people 71 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 1: want to abandon the Democratic Party to begin with. You see, folks, 72 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 1: the Republican Party has been waging war on Democrats on 73 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 1: democracy since the beginning of the Tea Party, okay, which 74 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: started during the Obama administration, Right, so, since the Tea 75 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:54,279 Speaker 1: Party and Donald Trump coming onto the stage asking for 76 00:05:55,279 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 1: Barack Obama's papers, right, they have been waging war on democracy. 77 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 1: And what have Democrats been doing just hang ringing, pointing fingers, 78 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 1: trying to pretend that they are the adults in the 79 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: room when guess what, folks, everybody else has left the 80 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 1: fucking room. Because they're tired of the both sides ism. 81 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:23,599 Speaker 1: They're tired of the run that Democrats are doing, running 82 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 1: up behind the Republican Party as they continue to move 83 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 1: into further extremism. Guess who's chasing them to the right. 84 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:37,920 Speaker 1: It is Democrats. So, friends, we can't sit around here 85 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 1: and say, oh, well, we have to be better, because 86 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 1: my thing is we are better. We don't have to 87 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 1: create trumped up charges. We don't have to create this 88 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:54,720 Speaker 1: both sides ism and bullshit in order to showcase that 89 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 1: we are better. No one should have said anything when 90 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden was pardoned, not a fucking person inside of 91 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:04,839 Speaker 1: the Democratic Party. They should have all done what Jasmine said, 92 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:09,080 Speaker 1: which was bravo, and then follow that up with the 93 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:12,720 Speaker 1: list of people that Donald Trump had pardoned who are 94 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 1: known criminals, which is what Rachel Maddow did. It is 95 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 1: an abdication of duty and responsibility that Democrats continue to 96 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:25,239 Speaker 1: show in this moment that while they should be bracing 97 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 1: themselves for the incoming of fascism, for the incoming of autocracy, 98 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 1: and how they plant to function in that, No, they're 99 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 1: gonna waste the next couple of weeks talking about Joe 100 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 1: Biden pardoning his son and think that somehow what Republicans 101 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: are not laughing at them and thinking how ridiculous they are. 102 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: This is why we are in this space right now, 103 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 1: because Democrats abandoned their base in an attempt to try 104 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 1: and court the Republicans that somehow they think don't follow 105 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,240 Speaker 1: Donald Trump and somehow would be able to bring them 106 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 1: over as opposed to amplifying the issues and creating the 107 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 1: solutions to the problems that are actually plaguing their base. 108 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 1: We find ourselves here, folks, not just because Republicans have 109 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 1: shown us who they are, but because Democrats don't know 110 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 1: who the fuck they are. That's why we find ourselves 111 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: in the place that we are in. And so let 112 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:39,079 Speaker 1: us now look and take a gander at what has 113 00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: happened in South Korea. So, folks, let me give you 114 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 1: just a quick little history lesson martial law. What is 115 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 1: martial law? It's a word that is thrown around all 116 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,320 Speaker 1: the time, a phrase that is thrown around, but I 117 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 1: don't actually think that we really know what martial law is. Well, 118 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 1: it says here martial law is the temporary substitution of 119 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 1: military authority for civilian rule, typically invoked during emergencies. It 120 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 1: has been used folks roughly sixty eight times in the 121 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 1: United States's two hundred and fifty year history. Nearly read here. 122 00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 1: In the US, it can be declared at both state 123 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:30,960 Speaker 1: and federal levels, and is often associated with the suspension 124 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:37,319 Speaker 1: of constitutional rights such as habeas corpus. The Posse Commeatus 125 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 1: Act of eighteen seventy eight generally prohibits the military from 126 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:48,840 Speaker 1: enforcing domestic law without congressional approval, but exceptions can be 127 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:55,960 Speaker 1: made during periods of rebellion, invasion, or public safety emergency. 128 00:09:56,520 --> 00:10:01,680 Speaker 1: Let me pause here. Why are we talking about this time? Well, 129 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: because the president of South Korea, President Yun, decided that 130 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 1: as he was being alerted to the fact, Well one, 131 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:16,719 Speaker 1: his approval ratings are roughly around twenty two percent. He 132 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 1: is the conservative in South Korea, and the parliament is 133 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 1: controlled by DP, the Democratic Party, and there were rumblings 134 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 1: that they were getting ready to impeach him along with 135 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 1: some of his cabinet. And to avoid that impeachment, this 136 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:45,959 Speaker 1: mffort decided that he was going to invoke martial law. 137 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 1: Y'all put a pin in that. So go back to 138 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: our history, lesson, when was the last time that the 139 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:58,440 Speaker 1: US declared martial law. Well, it was in nineteen forty one, 140 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:03,320 Speaker 1: actually December seventh, nineteen forty one, to be exact. And 141 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,680 Speaker 1: when did it occur? When the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, 142 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 1: the US federal government declared martial law in Hawaii, which 143 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 1: persisted through October nineteen forty four. And again, the United 144 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 1: States has only declared martial law roughly sixty eight times. 145 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,960 Speaker 1: No martial law was not declared during nine to eleven. 146 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:33,440 Speaker 1: So I want to bring you through exactly what it 147 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 1: is that happened. South Korea's president declares martial law and 148 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 1: during that time, the military helicopters everything basically broke out 149 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 1: at parliament to try and stop members of parliament from 150 00:11:56,920 --> 00:12:02,960 Speaker 1: entering the building to vote to end martial law. So 151 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 1: President Yun calls for martial law because Parliament is getting 152 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 1: ready to potentially impeach him, and he does this to 153 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 1: suspend all political activity from stopping Parliament from organizing and voting. 154 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 1: And what do the members of parliament do. They break 155 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 1: into parliament, hopping the walls, breaking into windows to get 156 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:37,959 Speaker 1: in to organize to vote. So the military was breaking 157 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:41,679 Speaker 1: into parliament, smashing the windows and attempting to storm the 158 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 1: National Assembly because they were initially following the president's martial 159 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:52,479 Speaker 1: law order. Because why were they breaking in the military 160 00:12:53,280 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 1: because Parliament voted to unanimously, unanimously lifting martial law so 161 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 1: that they could reclaim democracy. Because this mffor wanted to 162 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:13,319 Speaker 1: hold on to power visa via dictatorship. He openly threatened 163 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 1: to stop democracy so that he wouldn't be impeached. And 164 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 1: then they had to break in to parliament to vote 165 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:29,959 Speaker 1: to stop the dictator and the military didn't know whose 166 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:33,320 Speaker 1: rules to follow. Folks, Why am I talking about this 167 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 1: today because I don't know if this is foreshadowing or not. 168 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:44,679 Speaker 1: So I'll read you this. Let this sink in. A 169 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 1: government trying to restore freedom is being silenced at gunpoint. 170 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 1: This is the first time martial law in South Korea 171 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:56,960 Speaker 1: is declared since nineteen seventy nine, when it preceded the 172 00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 1: informans I will butcher this Yangzhou uprising President Yun Sukiel's justification. 173 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 1: He claimed martial law was to stop quote prepare for it, folks, 174 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 1: anti state forces. That he claimed that the opposition party, 175 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 1: the Democratic Party, was working alongside North Korea. Do you 176 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 1: see follow the bouncing ball here, he basically lied to 177 00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:37,360 Speaker 1: say that the opposition to him were really enemies of 178 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 1: the state and that they were working alongside the North 179 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 1: Koreans and he had to issue martial law in order 180 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 1: to stop these communist forces from taking over the country. Folks, 181 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 1: what does this sound like? This tweet goes on to say, 182 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 1: this isn't about protecting the nation, It's about consolidating power. 183 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 1: Martial law is being weaponized to suppress dissent and control 184 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 1: the media because the added benefit of issuing martial law 185 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 1: in South Korea means that guess who gets to take 186 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 1: over the media? The president, So guess who gets to 187 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 1: stop any objections from coming in President Yun? Guess who 188 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 1: gets to relay their message that I'm doing this for 189 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 1: your safety because the Democratic Party of South Korea is 190 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: working with North Korea and I'm here trying to save democracy. 191 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 1: Who does this sound like, folks? The person writing the 192 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 1: tweet goes on to say, South Korea is standing on 193 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 1: the edge of authoritarianism and the world is watching this, 194 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 1: My dear friends, is what this should remind all of 195 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 1: us of. This is exactly what was happening. January sixth, 196 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:14,080 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one. Donald Trump wanted to hold on to power, 197 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 1: so he told his band of insurrectionists to go take 198 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 1: their country back because there was what illegalities as it 199 00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 1: attains to the vote. Their vote was stolen. The Democratic 200 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:34,720 Speaker 1: Party was stealing their votes. So you need to go 201 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 1: take your country back. And this mob believed him. When 202 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 1: Donald Trump was told what was happening, did he call 203 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 1: in backup to help the police, No he did not. 204 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:52,200 Speaker 1: Did he call in the military, No he did not. 205 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 1: What concerns me about what we just saw unfolding South 206 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 1: Korea is that parliament is actually still controlled by the opposition. However, 207 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:13,200 Speaker 1: for us here in the United States, Democrats don't control 208 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,920 Speaker 1: a goddamn thing. On top of the fact that they 209 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:20,399 Speaker 1: don't even control their fucking message. So going back to 210 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 1: the top, the United States has only declared martial law, 211 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 1: which the President of the United States has the ability 212 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:31,359 Speaker 1: to do, Congress has the ability to do, and governors 213 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 1: have the ability to do. But in cases of natural disaster, rebellion, 214 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:44,200 Speaker 1: or unrest, laws can be suspended. What did I say 215 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 1: yesterday about how Donald Trump will decide to manufacture crises 216 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:58,919 Speaker 1: in order to push through his plans of authoritarianism. And 217 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 1: the thing here is that, unlike South Korea, again, Democrats 218 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 1: do not control the House, nor do they control the Senate, 219 00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:15,160 Speaker 1: nor do they control the White House or the judiciary. 220 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:19,440 Speaker 1: So what is to stop Donald Trump from coming in 221 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:24,399 Speaker 1: and saying one that we have an invasion, language that 222 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:29,879 Speaker 1: you have heard him use when discussing undocumented people in 223 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 1: this country. He has said, we are in an invasion. 224 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 1: These are when you're able to institute, whether it be 225 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:42,720 Speaker 1: the Insurrection Act, which is what his followers wanted him 226 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:47,520 Speaker 1: to use on January sixth, which also, by the way, 227 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:53,440 Speaker 1: allows you to designate a militia. So the fact is, yes, 228 00:18:54,200 --> 00:19:00,800 Speaker 1: Trump has zero guardrails, and he has been given absolute 229 00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 1: immunity by the Supreme Court. There is very little, friends, 230 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:12,359 Speaker 1: except what a handful of Republicans that maybe still believe 231 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:14,199 Speaker 1: in the rule of law. But if they did, then 232 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:17,639 Speaker 1: they would have voted to impeach Donald Trump. So either 233 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:22,120 Speaker 1: he declares right that there is an invasion coming across 234 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:25,440 Speaker 1: the border and we need to call in martial law, 235 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 1: or he manufactures a state of unrest, which is what 236 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: we did actually see during the twenty twenty summer of 237 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:40,399 Speaker 1: twenty twenty. The uprising following the murder of George Floyd. Again, 238 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 1: Donald Trump and the Republican Party is looking for an 239 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:48,960 Speaker 1: opportunity to do exactly what it is the South Korean 240 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:54,199 Speaker 1: president had done. But we don't have a parliament that 241 00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:58,400 Speaker 1: is working in our favor. So why are we all 242 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:02,199 Speaker 1: paying attention to South Korea right now? Because much like 243 00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 1: Brexit was foreshadowing to the election of Donald Trump in 244 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 1: twenty sixteen, I believe that we are watching democracy crumble 245 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 1: around the world and be tested in ways that it 246 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:23,119 Speaker 1: has not been tested in decades and decades and decades. 247 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 1: So this is where we are. It is absolutely terrifying. 248 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:35,399 Speaker 1: But I encourage each and every person to understand these 249 00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:42,480 Speaker 1: laws and understand what powers the president has and what 250 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 1: powers he has been given by the Supreme Court of 251 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:51,879 Speaker 1: the United States. They believe, folks, that they are at 252 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 1: war already, as Jasmine Crockett, Representative Crockett said so adeptly. 253 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 1: They already believe that we are at war. They already 254 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:07,920 Speaker 1: see any opposition as enemy forces. So if you believe 255 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 1: that you are at war, if you no longer see 256 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:16,199 Speaker 1: the opposition party right as your colleagues from across the 257 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:20,159 Speaker 1: aisle and you start to see them as the enemy within. 258 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 1: Believe me that they are going to find a way 259 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 1: to be able to suspend the Constitution to usher in autocracy, 260 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:38,160 Speaker 1: and I honestly don't know who is going to stop them. 261 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:44,479 Speaker 1: And this is where we are. So while Democrats again 262 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 1: want to have conversations about what Biden should or should 263 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:55,919 Speaker 1: not have done, Republicans are getting ready to take power 264 00:21:56,160 --> 00:22:00,880 Speaker 1: and never let it go. And then what so, folks, 265 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 1: we are in for it. And I encourage people to 266 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:09,639 Speaker 1: be paying attention to what is happening around the world 267 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 1: right now. You know, America is very good at existing 268 00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:19,160 Speaker 1: inside of our own siloed bubble because we're so far 269 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:24,240 Speaker 1: away from everyone else. But there have been bad actors 270 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:29,119 Speaker 1: that have been taking their cues from Donald Trump, and 271 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 1: unlike in America, other people are managing to hold their 272 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:41,719 Speaker 1: Trump lights accountable, whereas America has just re elected ours. 273 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 1: And if that is not wild af I don't honestly 274 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 1: know what is that is it for me today? Dear 275 00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 1: friends on wokf as always, power to the people and 276 00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:02,440 Speaker 1: to all the people. Power woke and stay woke as fuck.
