Speaker 1: Time. This is americle.

2
00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:07,560
Speaker 2: There is no question, and there are problems in this

3
00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:10,040
Speaker 2: country between police and community.

4
00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:14,720
Speaker 3: Yes, you are a donkey to the latest on that

5
00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:16,800

Speaker 1: Yes, it was a really bad day.

Speaker 2: For him and this is what he did, and so

9
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:24,200
Speaker 2: we are in a state of emergency.

10
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:24,920
Speaker 1: Okay.

11
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:28,320
Speaker 2: White supremacist violence, it is always have been the number

12
00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:29,680
Speaker 2: one threat to our society.

13
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:32,840
Speaker 1: But I'm also very proud that my wife is white.

14
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:34,960
Speaker 1: It's a practice club bitches.

15

Speaker 2: All right, trendy, please tell me why was I your

17
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 2: November twenty fourth. It's inspired by the meeting between Mayor

18
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 2: Alec Zoran Mundanni and the forty fifth and forty seventh

19
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:50,680
Speaker 2: President of the United States of America, Donald J.

20
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 1: Trump.

21
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 2: If you haven't heard on this past Friday, Zoran Mundanni

22
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 2: and Donald J.

23
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 1: Trump had a meeting at the White House. Okay. According

24
00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,440
Speaker 1: to statements and reporting, they discussed.

25
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:04,240
Speaker 2: Affordability, the cost of living crisis, public safety, economic security,

26
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 2: and federal local cooperations or on express that even with

27
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:12,119
Speaker 2: deep ideological differences there has to be a practical working

28
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:15,200
Speaker 2: relationship between the federal government in New York City.

29
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:18,039
Speaker 1: Let's listen to someone. What was said.

30
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 2: Are you a.

31
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 3: Format that you think Trump is a fascist? I've spoken

32
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:23,120
Speaker 3: about that.

33
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 1: All kay.

34
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 4: It's easier, It's easier than explaining a pedal.

35
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:30,039
Speaker 1: But would you.

36
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,360
Speaker 3: Feel comfortable living in New York City under a mondags?

37
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would, especially after the meeting.

38
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 2: Absolutely, we agree, and a lot more than I would

39
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 2: have thought.

40
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,040
Speaker 3: I am really looking forward to delivering for New Yorkers

41
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,840
Speaker 3: in partnership with the President on the affordability agenda.

42
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 1: So we're going to help him.

43
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 2: But I really think there's a chance to do a

44
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 2: great job.

45
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 1: I'll be cheering for him. Didn't mention anything about America.

46
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 4: I think he is going to surprise some conservative people

47
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:57,559
Speaker 4: extra and some very liberal people.

48
00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 2: I think I met with a very I met with

49
00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 2: a man who's a very rational person. So well, they're

50
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 2: being very cordial to each other, very nice to each other.

51
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,200
Speaker 2: I completely agree with that. And anyone who thought there

52
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,960
Speaker 2: wasn't gonna be a working relationship between New York City

53
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,800
Speaker 2: and the federal government doesn't understand politics. But the reason

54
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:16,839
Speaker 2: I have gathered us here today is because I don't

55
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 2: want to hear any politicians call each other extreme names

56
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 2: like fascist, communists, authoritarian, wanna be dictator. None of that

57
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,519
Speaker 2: kind of rhetoric can come from politicians anymore. It's all

58
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 2: dead because don't none of y'all really believe it.

59
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:33,680
Speaker 1: Okay.

60
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:35,960
Speaker 2: And if you call someone that and then turn around

61
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:37,920
Speaker 2: and say, but I'm willing to work with them.

62
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 1: It looks very hypocritical. Okay.

63
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 2: Leave that type of commentary for the pundits, all right,

64
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:46,920
Speaker 2: like myself for the social media YouTube commentator crowd. And

65
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 2: y'all go do your jobs, okay, Go govern Go be diplomatic,

66
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 2: go do the politics thing, all right. That rhetoric is

67
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 2: irresponsible in this climate, all right, Both parties rile people up.

68
00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:57,680
Speaker 1: You know.

69
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 2: Have we the people mad at each other in the street,

70
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:05,400
Speaker 2: fighting online? Some folks literally commit acts of violence against

71
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:09,079
Speaker 2: their political opposition. Meanwhile the politicians are out here working

72
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 2: with each other. Okay, do we not remember some of

73
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 2: the things Trump and one Donnie said about each other.

74
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 1: Let's listen. It's going to be hard for me as

75
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 1: the president to give.

76
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 2: A lot of money to New York because if you

77
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 2: have a communist running New York.

78
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 1: All you're doing is wasting the money you're sending there.

79
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 4: We have one because New Yorkers have stood up for

80
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 4: a city they can afford, where the mayor will use

81
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 4: their power to reject Donald Trump's fascism. This guy is

82
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 4: a communist at the highest level, and he wants to

83
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 4: destroy New York.

84
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 3: I will not be intimidated by this president.

85
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,839
Speaker 4: I will not be intimidated by anyone because my job

86
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 4: here is to start the people of this lot.

87
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 1: This communist from New York. Someday gets elected. I can't

88
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 1: believe that's happening. That's a terrible thing for our country.

89
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 1: By the way, so hear.

90
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 4: Me, President Trump, when I say this, to get to

91
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 4: any of us, you will have to.

92
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 1: Get through all of us. Blah blah blah.

93
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 2: I saw political theater, okay, and it's they responsible because

94
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 2: they got us out here choosing side gang gang on

95
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 2: each other.

96
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 1: Meanwhile they working together.

97
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 2: How are you gonna be mad at a person because

98
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,919
Speaker 2: of who they voted for, who they supported politically, But

99
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,320
Speaker 2: then watch the people you support be willing to work

100
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,360
Speaker 2: with them. I know some of y'all out there saying,

101
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 2: but they politicians, they have to work together. Yes, they do,

102
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 2: and they should, but stop with the extreme rhetoric like

103
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 2: fascism and communism.

104
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:29,719
Speaker 1: Okay.

105
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 2: Zoran Wundannie was on NBC News yesterday and he said

106
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 2: he still believes Donald Trump's a fascist, but he's willing

107
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:36,480
Speaker 2: to work with him.

108
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:40,159
Speaker 1: Let's listen. In that press conference with President Trump, a

109
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,599
Speaker 1: reporter asked you whether you believe that President Trump is

110
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,840
Speaker 1: in fact a fascist, word that you've used in the past.

111
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 1: You're about to answer. Then President Trump sort of jumped

112
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 1: in and he said, quote, that's okay. You can just

113
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:57,360
Speaker 1: say yes. It's easier than explaining it. So, mister mayrilect,

114
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,359
Speaker 1: just to be very clear, do you think that President

115
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: Trump is a fascist?

116
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,719
Speaker 3: And after President Trump said that, I said, yes, and

117
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 3: so you do. And that's something that I've said in

118
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 3: the past I say today. And I think what I

119
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,839
Speaker 3: appreciated about the conversation that I had with the President

120
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 3: was that we were not shy about the places of

121
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 3: disagreement about the politics that has brought us to this moment,

122
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 3: and we also wanted to focus on what it could

123
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 3: look like to deliver on a shared analysis of an

124
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 3: affordability crisis for New Yorkers.

125
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 1: Listen in America.

126
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 2: My name is Leonard mclvey, commonly known as Charlamagne of God,

127
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 2: and I believe words matter. Now, I'm not the highest

128
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 2: grade of weed in the dispensary, but based on everything

129
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 2: I know about fascism, if someone truly believes a political

130
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 2: figure as a fascist, then the idea of working with

131
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 2: them is contradictory.

132
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:38,119
Speaker 1: Okay.

133
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,279
Speaker 2: Fascism isn't a normal political disagreement, all right. Disagreeing on

134
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:46,360
Speaker 2: tax rates is a normal political disagreement. Economic issues, environmental concerns,

135
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 2: those are normal political disagreements.

136
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,239
Speaker 1: Fascism is not. Okay.

137
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:52,280
Speaker 2: When you call them one a fascists, you are accusing

138
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:56,160
Speaker 2: them of being fundamentally anti democratic, authoritarian and willing to

139
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,440
Speaker 2: use the power of the state to crush opposition.

140
00:05:58,480 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 1: Okay.

141
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 2: If you believe someone is fascian the historically and morally,

142
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 2: you resist them or use institutions, law and coalitions to

143
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 2: contain them. Okay, limit their power, You organize against them,

144
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 2: litigate against them, but you don't collaborate, because collaboration with

145
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:15,479
Speaker 2: a fascist regime, even on small issues, legitimizes it. So

146
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 2: if Zorn truly believes Trump is a fascist and working

147
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,840
Speaker 2: with him makes zero sense, but this is my issue.

148
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,600
Speaker 2: He doesn't fully believe Trump is a fascist, just like

149
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:27,479
Speaker 2: Trump doesn't fully believe when Donnie is a communist.

150
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:28,920
Speaker 1: It's all political theater.

151
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 2: Now, there are a lot of things Trump has done

152
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,840
Speaker 2: and it's said that look like fascism and authoritarian strategy

153
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,160
Speaker 2: to me. But I feel like that's the media's job

154
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,039
Speaker 2: to call it out. Okay, Politicians clearly can't do that

155
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 2: because the words don't match the actions. And that's when

156
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 2: you just look like a dishonest politician who says whatever

157
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:45,239
Speaker 2: to get elected.

158
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:46,520
Speaker 1: Because once again, if.

159
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 2: You think someone is a fascist, but you believe you

160
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,599
Speaker 2: can work with them, that's what a question of hypocrisy

161
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 2: becomes unavoidable. Okay, listen to me. I know I have

162
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 2: a listen all right, So you don't take me serious.

163
00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 2: But you can't call someone a fascist and treat them

164
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,159
Speaker 2: like a normal political partner.

165
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 1: Those two positions contradict each other.

166
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 2: So the real question for Trump, Okay, Mundani, A real

167
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 2: question for Trump and Mundannie.

168
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:11,920
Speaker 1: You know these are what should be asked to them.

169
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 2: Hey, Trump, were you exaggerating when you called Mundania a communists?

170
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 2: Hey Zoran, were you exaggerating when you called Trump a

171
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 2: fascists are Zoran? Are you now minimizing fascism by agreeing

172
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 2: to work with Trump?

173
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 1: Or Trump?

174
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 2: Are you minimizing communism by agreeing to work with Zorn.

175
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 2: Here's the answer to all these questions. It's politics as usual.

176
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,200
Speaker 2: And I'm sick of politicians doing this because once again,

177
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 2: you know who it hurts the most.

178
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 1: Us.

179
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:37,239
Speaker 2: You done told your aunt and three of your cousins

180
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 2: f you you not invited to Thanksgiving this year because

181
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 2: of who they supported politically. Meanwhile, the people we supported

182
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 2: politically are willing to support each other. If Zoran and

183
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 2: Trump can be in the White House smiling at each

184
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 2: other and excessively touching on each other, then you and

185
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 2: your family can enjoy Thanksgiving Thanksgiving dinner together.

186
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 1: Okay, listen to all elected officials.

187
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 2: If you call somebody a fascist or communists, but then

188
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 2: sit down and work with them like everything is normal,

189
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 2: you make those words meaningless, all right.

190
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 1: It's dangerous to do that. It's dangerous to weaken those terms,

191
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 1: and it confuses the public alight.

192
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 2: When you call someone a fascist or communists, it's supposed

193
00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 2: to mean something serious.

194
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:16,520
Speaker 1: You talking Hitler, Mussolini, and.

195
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 2: Politicians are using these terms for emotional leverage, not accuracy.

196
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 2: And the danger in that, the danger in that people,

197
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 2: the public becomes numb to real authoritarian threats. Please give

198
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 2: every politician who has done this, because it's not just

199
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,360
Speaker 2: when Donnie and Trump, it's all of them, the biggest

200
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 2: he hull.

201
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 1: All right, Yes, indeed, thank you for that dog key today. Yes,
