1
00:00:04,795 --> 00:00:16,635
Speaker 1: Countdown with Keith Olderman is a production of iHeartRadio. This

2
00:00:16,835 --> 00:00:20,475
Speaker 1: is a Countdown Bulleton podcast about the assault on Senator

3
00:00:20,515 --> 00:00:25,035
Speaker 1: Padilla of California at the Christy Nome Propaganda conference on

4
00:00:25,155 --> 00:00:30,195
Speaker 1: Thursday afternoon. This is also thus another reminder that Donald

5
00:00:30,235 --> 00:00:34,435
Speaker 1: Trump is a domestic terrorist and anybody who serves him

6
00:00:34,955 --> 00:00:38,235
Speaker 1: is a domestic terrorist. It was true in twenty twenty

7
00:00:38,675 --> 00:00:43,715
Speaker 1: it is true again in twenty twenty five. Domestic terrorism.

8
00:00:44,595 --> 00:00:48,195
Speaker 1: These acts of domestic terrorism have unfolded against the citizens

9
00:00:48,235 --> 00:00:53,395
Speaker 1: of California since Friday. The lawless threats, the immoral exercise

10
00:00:53,515 --> 00:00:57,395
Speaker 1: of illegal power, the vow to ignore the civilian courts.

11
00:00:57,715 --> 00:01:01,555
Speaker 1: They have now escalated to state sponsored violence against an

12
00:01:01,595 --> 00:01:05,795
Speaker 1: elected government official, a sitting United States Senator, in this case,

13
00:01:05,955 --> 00:01:10,595
Speaker 1: Senator Alex Padia of California. Mister Padea entered a news

14
00:01:10,635 --> 00:01:14,875
Speaker 1: conference in which the Homeland Security Secretary, an authoritarian idiot

15
00:01:14,915 --> 00:01:17,955
Speaker 1: with no respects for the laws or history or ethos

16
00:01:18,355 --> 00:01:22,155
Speaker 1: of the United States of America, was spouting delusional talking

17
00:01:22,195 --> 00:01:26,915
Speaker 1: points worthy of a drug addict. Senator Padia identified himself,

18
00:01:27,195 --> 00:01:31,075
Speaker 1: demanded answers on behalf of his constituents, his citizens, the

19
00:01:31,155 --> 00:01:34,035
Speaker 1: residents of the community. He represents the people of the

20
00:01:34,155 --> 00:01:38,435
Speaker 1: United States of America, particularly those in southern California who

21
00:01:38,675 --> 00:01:44,035
Speaker 1: are being terrorized by the Trump dictatorship. He was then

22
00:01:44,195 --> 00:01:47,715
Speaker 1: seized no more than twenty five seconds into a brief

23
00:01:47,835 --> 00:01:52,315
Speaker 1: statement by agents protecting Nome, believed at first to be

24
00:01:52,435 --> 00:01:56,475
Speaker 1: Secret Service. Two goons who later showed up to handcuff

25
00:01:56,555 --> 00:01:59,715
Speaker 1: him were wearing FBI logos as they threw him to

26
00:01:59,755 --> 00:02:03,155
Speaker 1: the ground, and of course, the Secret Service, the FBI

27
00:02:03,275 --> 00:02:08,195
Speaker 1: the other organizations that now surround Trump are acting as

28
00:02:08,235 --> 00:02:12,715
Speaker 1: the Trump praetorian guard. The sound of what happened alone

29
00:02:12,915 --> 00:02:17,115
Speaker 1: is terrifying, and that sound comes in two parts, two

30
00:02:17,315 --> 00:02:21,995
Speaker 1: audio clips. Remember before I play the first part, the

31
00:02:22,115 --> 00:02:25,755
Speaker 1: key defense from Nome and the criminal gang for which

32
00:02:25,795 --> 00:02:29,675
Speaker 1: she works and with which she works was that Senator

33
00:02:29,715 --> 00:02:33,755
Speaker 1: Padilla did not identify himself, was not wearing his ID

34
00:02:34,395 --> 00:02:38,475
Speaker 1: and quoting her nobody knew who he was. The first

35
00:02:38,515 --> 00:02:42,235
Speaker 1: part could be a mistake, as you will hear the

36
00:02:42,275 --> 00:02:45,275
Speaker 1: second part that nobody knew who he was is an

37
00:02:45,315 --> 00:02:49,755
Speaker 1: outright lie. I'm not Senators Alix Padia. I have questions

38
00:02:49,875 --> 00:02:53,355
Speaker 1: for the secretary because the fact of the matter is

39
00:02:53,635 --> 00:02:57,155
Speaker 1: half a dozen sign criminals. That ship's hitting on your

40
00:02:57,995 --> 00:03:03,475
Speaker 1: on your how many of our I say this had

41
00:03:03,475 --> 00:03:10,115
Speaker 1: been docked being Senator Padilla is then dragged out of

42
00:03:10,115 --> 00:03:13,395
Speaker 1: the room in which the propaganda conference is being conducted

43
00:03:13,595 --> 00:03:17,755
Speaker 1: into first an anti room and then into a wholeway,

44
00:03:18,435 --> 00:03:22,515
Speaker 1: pulled off his feet and pulled to the ground and

45
00:03:22,675 --> 00:03:28,075
Speaker 1: handcuffed a sitting United States senator better than the caning

46
00:03:28,195 --> 00:03:31,475
Speaker 1: of Senator Charles Sumner in eighteen fifty six by the

47
00:03:31,515 --> 00:03:36,395
Speaker 1: insurrectionist Congressman Preston Brooks. I suppose, but not really buy

48
00:03:36,515 --> 00:03:39,355
Speaker 1: all that much. Here is part two of what this

49
00:03:39,555 --> 00:03:40,915
Speaker 1: monstrosity sounded like.

50
00:03:41,435 --> 00:03:48,195
Speaker 2: Hands on your back, good, all right, cool hand placed

51
00:03:48,195 --> 00:03:49,955
Speaker 2: bleeplatt bleeplat.

52
00:03:50,395 --> 00:04:00,475
Speaker 1: Other hands other hand. There's no recording aloud out here.

53
00:04:02,515 --> 00:04:05,875
Speaker 1: I did not recording aloud on here for right. The

54
00:04:05,955 --> 00:04:10,915
Speaker 1: other defense of this violation of every tenet of not

55
00:04:11,115 --> 00:04:16,435
Speaker 1: just American jurisprudence, not just American government, not just American law,

56
00:04:16,595 --> 00:04:22,435
Speaker 1: but the traditions of American politics. You do not assault

57
00:04:22,715 --> 00:04:27,875
Speaker 1: a sitting senator on behalf of an apparatic, a moron

58
00:04:27,995 --> 00:04:32,715
Speaker 1: working for the opposing party. Apart from that, the other

59
00:04:32,835 --> 00:04:36,395
Speaker 1: defense from Christy Nome and her Minions was that this

60
00:04:36,595 --> 00:04:43,755
Speaker 1: was a stunt by Senator Padilla. Sure, whatever you want

61
00:04:43,795 --> 00:04:46,355
Speaker 1: to call it a stunt, call it a stunt. It's

62
00:04:46,395 --> 00:04:52,435
Speaker 1: a stunt. Opposing Trump is a stunt. Opposing the Christy

63
00:04:52,555 --> 00:04:58,235
Speaker 1: nome Tom Holman Gestapo is a stunt. Opposing the militarization

64
00:04:58,275 --> 00:05:01,635
Speaker 1: of our streets is a stunt. Opposing Trump. Getting the

65
00:05:01,675 --> 00:05:05,595
Speaker 1: troops to boo Biden at a military exercise Bragg is

66
00:05:05,635 --> 00:05:13,435
Speaker 1: a stunt. Being anti Trump terrorism is a stunt. Do

67
00:05:13,515 --> 00:05:17,755
Speaker 1: we think Senator Padilla getting himself thrown to the floor

68
00:05:19,115 --> 00:05:22,915
Speaker 1: after identifying himself as a sitting senator was that part

69
00:05:22,955 --> 00:05:27,875
Speaker 1: of the stunt. The Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson,

70
00:05:28,155 --> 00:05:31,155
Speaker 1: who earlier this week called for the governor of California

71
00:05:31,275 --> 00:05:35,195
Speaker 1: to be quote tarred and feathered, which is an eighteenth

72
00:05:35,235 --> 00:05:41,235
Speaker 1: century form of torture and even public murder, insisted that

73
00:05:41,315 --> 00:05:44,875
Speaker 1: the one who should be punished here is Senator Padilla.

74
00:05:46,115 --> 00:05:50,355
Speaker 1: Censure at least, says Speaker Johnson, and he hints at more.

75
00:05:50,795 --> 00:05:56,435
Speaker 1: He hints that perhaps expulsion or who knows, arrest should follow.

76
00:05:56,475 --> 00:05:59,715
Speaker 2: That behavior at a minimum, is it rises to the

77
00:05:59,795 --> 00:06:01,355
Speaker 2: level of a center. I think there needs to be

78
00:06:01,395 --> 00:06:03,515
Speaker 2: a message sent by the body as a whole that

79
00:06:03,515 --> 00:06:05,075
Speaker 2: that is not what we are going to do. That's

80
00:06:05,115 --> 00:06:06,515
Speaker 2: not how we're going to act. We're not going to

81
00:06:06,595 --> 00:06:11,875
Speaker 2: have branches fighting physically and having senators charging cabinet secretaries.

82
00:06:12,195 --> 00:06:15,755
Speaker 1: I am confident Senator Padilla would accept censure, as would

83
00:06:15,795 --> 00:06:19,315
Speaker 1: I were Speaker Johnson to be arrested for his call

84
00:06:19,635 --> 00:06:26,315
Speaker 1: for violence, for tarring and feathering. Governor Newsom for the record,

85
00:06:26,395 --> 00:06:30,675
Speaker 1: what Johnson said. There, no one charged a cabinet secretary.

86
00:06:31,195 --> 00:06:34,275
Speaker 1: Go and look at the videotape for yourself. No one

87
00:06:34,315 --> 00:06:38,155
Speaker 1: got to within ten feet of her. No one got

88
00:06:38,155 --> 00:06:42,155
Speaker 1: to within ten people of her. She was spewing her

89
00:06:42,355 --> 00:06:50,315
Speaker 1: spewing material to those who were ready to lap it up. Again.

90
00:06:50,355 --> 00:06:55,915
Speaker 1: This is Trump terrorism, As Governor Newsom said, law abiding

91
00:06:55,955 --> 00:07:01,115
Speaker 1: American citizens are now tonight after this past week in

92
00:07:01,235 --> 00:07:05,715
Speaker 1: southern California, in Florida, in New York, in other communities,

93
00:07:07,555 --> 00:07:12,595
Speaker 1: afraid to leave their own homes, people who were born here,

94
00:07:12,795 --> 00:07:16,395
Speaker 1: afraid to leave their own homes because so many people

95
00:07:16,555 --> 00:07:21,075
Speaker 1: who were born here have been swept up anyway, Because

96
00:07:21,275 --> 00:07:25,355
Speaker 1: terrorism is terrorism, and it does not stop being terrorism

97
00:07:25,555 --> 00:07:31,235
Speaker 1: simply because it has the impromater of a evil, bastard

98
00:07:31,315 --> 00:07:40,395
Speaker 1: filled government. It is terrorism still. Newsome went on to

99
00:07:40,475 --> 00:07:42,875
Speaker 1: note that people were afraid to let their children out

100
00:07:43,195 --> 00:07:48,355
Speaker 1: to go to dental appointments in southern California. Thomas Kennedy

101
00:07:48,835 --> 00:07:53,235
Speaker 1: of the Florida Immigrant Coalition posted that they're in Florida

102
00:07:53,755 --> 00:07:58,235
Speaker 1: quote a boat transporting individuals to a Telemundo party. That's

103
00:07:58,235 --> 00:08:02,715
Speaker 1: a television network, a Spanish language television network heavily into

104
00:08:02,795 --> 00:08:07,275
Speaker 1: sports coverage. Telemundo party celebrating one year out from the

105
00:08:07,275 --> 00:08:11,035
Speaker 1: World Cup. That boat was boarded by the coast guard.

106
00:08:11,395 --> 00:08:14,755
Speaker 1: They checked the immigration status of the staff on the boat.

107
00:08:15,595 --> 00:08:20,475
Speaker 1: The mayor of Miami Dade, officials from FIFA, the World

108
00:08:20,515 --> 00:08:24,475
Speaker 1: Soccer Organization, and the leadership of Telemundo were present on

109
00:08:24,515 --> 00:08:27,595
Speaker 1: the boat, and in fact, the Miami New Times obtained

110
00:08:27,635 --> 00:08:32,515
Speaker 1: and posted video from Telemundo of apparently a live broadcast

111
00:08:32,635 --> 00:08:35,755
Speaker 1: or a recorded broadcast of the moment the party boat

112
00:08:35,955 --> 00:08:42,475
Speaker 1: was boarded and halted outside Miami Offshore. Miami held there

113
00:08:42,555 --> 00:08:45,195
Speaker 1: for an hour, no one knowing what was going on

114
00:08:45,715 --> 00:08:49,395
Speaker 1: or how it would end. Terrorism on the West coast,

115
00:08:49,875 --> 00:08:58,155
Speaker 1: terrorism on the East coast. Terrorism from Donald Trump, Trump

116
00:08:58,275 --> 00:09:01,275
Speaker 1: is back. He is a sadist. He is not a

117
00:09:01,355 --> 00:09:04,155
Speaker 1: human being, as you and I understand the phrase, he

118
00:09:04,235 --> 00:09:07,595
Speaker 1: is fully engaged in destroying this nation and fulfilling the

119
00:09:07,635 --> 00:09:12,315
Speaker 1: textbook definition of terrorism, which is using violence or the

120
00:09:12,355 --> 00:09:16,035
Speaker 1: threat of it to force political change unlawfully. Ask Alex

121
00:09:16,075 --> 00:09:19,395
Speaker 1: Padia if he was a victim of that. Trump did

122
00:09:19,395 --> 00:09:22,115
Speaker 1: it on June first, twenty twenty when he gassed the

123
00:09:22,115 --> 00:09:25,955
Speaker 1: peaceful George Floyd protesters at Lafayette Square outside the White

124
00:09:25,955 --> 00:09:28,675
Speaker 1: House so he could stand in front of Saint John's

125
00:09:28,715 --> 00:09:32,955
Speaker 1: Church with a Bible in his hand, a photo op

126
00:09:32,995 --> 00:09:36,435
Speaker 1: with a Bible during which he accidentally held the Bible

127
00:09:36,995 --> 00:09:40,755
Speaker 1: right side up. At that time. I called it what

128
00:09:40,795 --> 00:09:45,275
Speaker 1: it was, terrorism and I called Trump a terrorist. A

129
00:09:45,315 --> 00:09:50,795
Speaker 1: few months later, Senator Mitt Romney issued a statement in

130
00:09:50,795 --> 00:09:54,755
Speaker 1: which he condemned all of us for inflating and throwing

131
00:09:54,835 --> 00:09:58,555
Speaker 1: gasoline on the delicate political situation, and how dare I

132
00:09:58,635 --> 00:10:03,395
Speaker 1: refer to Trump as a terrorist. Three months after that,

133
00:10:04,035 --> 00:10:07,435
Speaker 1: Senator Roma, it was one of many senators and more

134
00:10:07,515 --> 00:10:13,635
Speaker 1: congressmen trapped inside Capitol Hill as Trump Maga terrorists tried

135
00:10:13,675 --> 00:10:18,195
Speaker 1: to break in to kill them. I have not heard

136
00:10:18,275 --> 00:10:22,275
Speaker 1: from now former Senator Romney recently about how wrong I

137
00:10:22,435 --> 00:10:28,155
Speaker 1: was to call Trump a terrorist. Trump has no code,

138
00:10:28,195 --> 00:10:30,715
Speaker 1: no morals, There is no line. He will not cross.

139
00:10:31,675 --> 00:10:34,515
Speaker 1: A man who virtually began his campaign boasting he could

140
00:10:34,515 --> 00:10:38,035
Speaker 1: shoot people on Fifth Avenue and lose no support. He

141
00:10:38,075 --> 00:10:44,955
Speaker 1: does not say that idly, nor without actually calculating the effect.

142
00:10:45,875 --> 00:10:48,075
Speaker 1: I know this man, I have known him since nineteen

143
00:10:48,115 --> 00:10:52,675
Speaker 1: eighty three. There is no there there. If something evil

144
00:10:52,755 --> 00:10:55,755
Speaker 1: has just occurred to him, he wonders, only not is

145
00:10:55,795 --> 00:10:58,035
Speaker 1: it right? Or is it wrong? Not even can I

146
00:10:58,075 --> 00:11:00,515
Speaker 1: get away with it? He wonders why no one has

147
00:11:00,555 --> 00:11:05,875
Speaker 1: thought to do it before, Like shooting people on Fifth Avenue.

148
00:11:06,515 --> 00:11:10,395
Speaker 1: He meant it. He means it, he will mean it.

149
00:11:10,995 --> 00:11:14,075
Speaker 1: And the people he thinks he could shoot are not hypotheticals,

150
00:11:14,355 --> 00:11:18,635
Speaker 1: nor random passers by, nor the New Yorkers he no

151
00:11:18,675 --> 00:11:25,195
Speaker 1: longer likes. They are people like Gavin Newsom and Alex Padilla.

152
00:11:26,155 --> 00:11:32,635
Speaker 1: And for all I know, you and me incredibly as

153
00:11:32,715 --> 00:11:36,475
Speaker 1: disturbing and infuriating, as alarm bell ringing as the man

154
00:11:36,475 --> 00:11:40,755
Speaker 1: handling of Senator Padilla. Maybe I am in fact equally

155
00:11:40,755 --> 00:11:44,875
Speaker 1: disturbed by Thursday's other grotesque development. And this was from Washington.

156
00:11:45,315 --> 00:11:48,435
Speaker 1: I will read you the Politico headline and one exchange

157
00:11:48,475 --> 00:11:52,155
Speaker 1: captured in the story, quote heg Seth won't commit to

158
00:11:52,195 --> 00:11:57,755
Speaker 1: obeying courts on marines in Los Angeles subhead, The Defense

159
00:11:57,795 --> 00:12:02,195
Speaker 1: Secretary declined to say whether the Pentagon would comply with

160
00:12:02,395 --> 00:12:08,515
Speaker 1: any judicial order blocking Trump's domestic troop deployment. Rep. Roe

161
00:12:08,635 --> 00:12:12,755
Speaker 1: Kana D of California repeatedly pressed Hegseeth on whether he

162
00:12:12,755 --> 00:12:16,315
Speaker 1: would follow a court ruling. You're not willing to say

163
00:12:16,315 --> 00:12:20,435
Speaker 1: you would respect those decisions, Kanna asked. Hegseeth replied, what

164
00:12:20,515 --> 00:12:28,395
Speaker 1: I'm saying is local district judges shouldn't make foreign policy.

165
00:12:29,235 --> 00:12:33,595
Speaker 1: Newsom Governor Newsom reposted a video of the exchange on

166
00:12:33,675 --> 00:12:40,235
Speaker 1: social media platform x This is not normal, he said, Governor,

167
00:12:40,275 --> 00:12:41,835
Speaker 1: I will be critical of you for the first time

168
00:12:41,835 --> 00:12:45,395
Speaker 1: in a week. That's not the phrase I would use.

169
00:12:46,875 --> 00:12:51,275
Speaker 1: Hegseeth refused to confirm he would yield to civilian authority.

170
00:12:52,475 --> 00:12:57,075
Speaker 1: He has now cloaked himself in the idea that local

171
00:12:57,155 --> 00:13:01,395
Speaker 1: district judges are not affecting the illegal use of the

172
00:13:01,475 --> 00:13:06,515
Speaker 1: military on civilian streets for civilian in issues. He has

173
00:13:06,635 --> 00:13:13,515
Speaker 1: cloaked that with this nonsensical fabrication by some lawyer, by

174
00:13:13,555 --> 00:13:18,795
Speaker 1: some Stephen Miller protege somewhere, that this is foreign policy,

175
00:13:19,075 --> 00:13:23,435
Speaker 1: that this is beyond the ken of the judges and

176
00:13:23,515 --> 00:13:28,515
Speaker 1: beyond the rights of the American citizen. It is perhaps

177
00:13:28,515 --> 00:13:31,475
Speaker 1: the most dangerous thing offered to this country since the

178
00:13:31,515 --> 00:13:35,075
Speaker 1: Alien and Sedition Acts under President Adams at the start

179
00:13:35,155 --> 00:13:39,795
Speaker 1: of the nineteenth century. One more note from the Politico story,

180
00:13:39,795 --> 00:13:43,475
Speaker 1: The Defense Secretary, in separate congressional testimony on Wednesday, suggested

181
00:13:43,515 --> 00:13:47,235
Speaker 1: the administration could deploy troops elsewhere to assist in roundups

182
00:13:47,275 --> 00:13:53,035
Speaker 1: and deportations. That is, literally, have the troops, literally, have

183
00:13:53,275 --> 00:13:58,235
Speaker 1: those Marines in southern California go on the roundups. You

184
00:13:58,315 --> 00:14:01,995
Speaker 1: have not just been arrested by ice and renditioned by ice.

185
00:14:02,035 --> 00:14:05,915
Speaker 1: You have been seized by the Marines on the streets

186
00:14:05,955 --> 00:14:12,035
Speaker 1: of an American city, full fledged military dictatorship. At that hearing,

187
00:14:12,075 --> 00:14:15,315
Speaker 1: Politico notes heg Seth was not able to immediately cite

188
00:14:15,355 --> 00:14:19,595
Speaker 1: the legal justification for the deployments. I would add that

189
00:14:19,635 --> 00:14:25,475
Speaker 1: as largely because there is none just Hegseeth's answer in

190
00:14:25,555 --> 00:14:30,955
Speaker 1: testimony Thursday, is itself terrorism. While the case determining whether

191
00:14:31,115 --> 00:14:34,915
Speaker 1: or not the local courts the federal courts in California

192
00:14:34,955 --> 00:14:40,595
Speaker 1: would overrule this illegal use, this illegal usurpation of the

193
00:14:40,715 --> 00:14:44,795
Speaker 1: use of the National Guard of California while that hearing

194
00:14:44,915 --> 00:14:49,075
Speaker 1: was beginning, hours before that first emergency hearing was to start,

195
00:14:50,595 --> 00:14:54,235
Speaker 1: heg seth answers, I'm not sure we're going to abide

196
00:14:54,275 --> 00:14:57,475
Speaker 1: by it one way or the other. Do you know

197
00:14:57,515 --> 00:15:00,075
Speaker 1: what a Defense Secretary of Pentagon chief who will not

198
00:15:00,155 --> 00:15:03,795
Speaker 1: defer to civilian courts and civilian laws is called. He's

199
00:15:03,835 --> 00:15:08,235
Speaker 1: called part of a milli military dictatorship. Hopefully afterwards he

200
00:15:08,315 --> 00:15:15,115
Speaker 1: is called a fugitive. There is some small good news

201
00:15:15,155 --> 00:15:19,595
Speaker 1: as I record this, g Elliott Morris of the site's

202
00:15:19,595 --> 00:15:24,555
Speaker 1: strength in numbers of polling and polling analysis site. He

203
00:15:24,675 --> 00:15:27,315
Speaker 1: was the last head of the five thirty eight website.

204
00:15:27,715 --> 00:15:31,235
Speaker 1: Morris has been able to gauge the stark impact of

205
00:15:31,275 --> 00:15:34,275
Speaker 1: the last week of Trumpean terrorism, not just on opinion

206
00:15:34,595 --> 00:15:39,995
Speaker 1: in southern California or among Democrats, but in the United

207
00:15:39,995 --> 00:15:46,155
Speaker 1: States one week ago, literally one week ago last Thursday,

208
00:15:46,795 --> 00:15:51,235
Speaker 1: Donald Trump was a positive net five points in public

209
00:15:51,275 --> 00:15:55,635
Speaker 1: approval on how he handled immigration. He was up by

210
00:15:55,755 --> 00:16:00,955
Speaker 1: five people approved of all this one week plus five

211
00:16:01,435 --> 00:16:04,635
Speaker 1: as of earlier Thursday. As of earlier today, one week later,

212
00:16:04,955 --> 00:16:09,395
Speaker 1: he is minus one. He has fallen a net six

213
00:16:09,435 --> 00:16:13,515
Speaker 1: points and fallen out of the blue into the red

214
00:16:14,075 --> 00:16:23,315
Speaker 1: in one week. This is not just illegal, this is unpopular. Unfortunately.

215
00:16:23,355 --> 00:16:28,915
Speaker 1: The questions that that produces are will it matter? And

216
00:16:28,955 --> 00:16:31,195
Speaker 1: how quickly are we approaching the point at which someone

217
00:16:31,315 --> 00:16:36,755
Speaker 1: like Hegseth or Gnome or Trump declares it illegal to

218
00:16:36,875 --> 00:16:41,595
Speaker 1: conduct or promulgate or print such polls. And when all

219
00:16:41,635 --> 00:16:45,635
Speaker 1: the courts in the country tell them they are breaking

220
00:16:45,675 --> 00:16:51,995
Speaker 1: the law in doing so, they say, so what? Because

221
00:16:51,995 --> 00:16:55,395
Speaker 1: the Trumpest answer to Senator Padilla's demand for answers about

222
00:16:55,395 --> 00:16:58,035
Speaker 1: the laws being broken in California. The answer to the

223
00:16:58,075 --> 00:17:01,515
Speaker 1: demand of the Trumpest stooge, hegseeth that he obey and

224
00:17:01,595 --> 00:17:05,555
Speaker 1: affirm he will obey the civilian law which constitution prevails

225
00:17:05,755 --> 00:17:10,155
Speaker 1: over his little gun shop. The answer to any time

226
00:17:10,235 --> 00:17:16,795
Speaker 1: and any way from Trump and his mobsters to a

227
00:17:16,915 --> 00:17:20,395
Speaker 1: statement of fact that they have broken the law, Their

228
00:17:20,515 --> 00:17:29,475
Speaker 1: answer is, indeed, so what? This has been a countdown
