WEBVTT - Donald Trump Can't Stop Himself From Lying

0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:04.080
<v Speaker 1>This is the warning. It is week two of the

0:00:04.120 --> 0:00:08.800
<v Speaker 1>Trump presidency, and there is a lot going on everywhere

0:00:09.000 --> 0:00:15.720
<v Speaker 1>in Washington. Change is afoot, desecrations are happening. Bill Owens

0:00:16.239 --> 0:00:20.520
<v Speaker 1>of sixty minutes of CBS News is a tough man

0:00:21.000 --> 0:00:25.759
<v Speaker 1>in a feeble time. Bill Owens is doing something exceptional.

0:00:26.120 --> 0:00:30.120
<v Speaker 1>Bill Owens is a journalist, and he will not get

0:00:30.160 --> 0:00:33.760
<v Speaker 1>on his knees. He will not bow, and he will

0:00:33.800 --> 0:00:38.320
<v Speaker 1>not scrape. Bill Owens seems to understand something. He works

0:00:38.800 --> 0:00:43.360
<v Speaker 1>at an institution where Edward R. Morrow worked. He works

0:00:43.760 --> 0:00:47.120
<v Speaker 1>at an institution when the world faced its most dire

0:00:47.240 --> 0:00:51.040
<v Speaker 1>moments that told the story of what lay over the

0:00:51.159 --> 0:00:55.640
<v Speaker 1>edge of the abyss. CBS News is a vital institution.

0:00:56.200 --> 0:00:59.920
<v Speaker 1>And Donald's friend Larry here he is in the overlaw

0:01:00.040 --> 0:01:05.440
<v Speaker 1>office with Rupert, is going to force a capitulation. He's

0:01:05.480 --> 0:01:09.680
<v Speaker 1>going to take command effectively of CBS News with a

0:01:09.920 --> 0:01:13.760
<v Speaker 1>purchase of paramount hand the keys to his son, a

0:01:13.920 --> 0:01:17.640
<v Speaker 1>prince of the American oligarchy who is hailed as a

0:01:17.760 --> 0:01:22.360
<v Speaker 1>genius despite being born an inch from home plate. He's

0:01:22.360 --> 0:01:26.039
<v Speaker 1>in the movie business, of course, and this man will

0:01:26.120 --> 0:01:30.360
<v Speaker 1>soon with his son, control the network that bill Owens

0:01:30.800 --> 0:01:37.000
<v Speaker 1>is defending journalism is nothing without ethics, without integrity. What

0:01:37.160 --> 0:01:41.199
<v Speaker 1>bill Owens is doing is noble because he did nothing

0:01:41.319 --> 0:01:45.920
<v Speaker 1>wrong and CBS did nothing wrong, and CBS News did

0:01:45.959 --> 0:01:50.800
<v Speaker 1>nothing wrong. And bowing to a bully who has designs

0:01:51.120 --> 0:01:56.200
<v Speaker 1>of becoming a tyrant. No. So across the media landscape,

0:01:56.320 --> 0:01:59.960
<v Speaker 1>there is all manner of corruption to point a finger at.

0:02:00.360 --> 0:02:04.360
<v Speaker 1>There is all manner of things to be worried about,

0:02:04.680 --> 0:02:08.280
<v Speaker 1>but understand there are things to celebrate. And Bill Owens

0:02:08.320 --> 0:02:12.800
<v Speaker 1>of sixty minutes in CBS hanging tough, it's one of them.

0:02:13.120 --> 0:02:15.920
<v Speaker 1>And there are people like that all over America, in

0:02:16.160 --> 0:02:21.800
<v Speaker 1>all walks of life. People like that have always faced

0:02:21.880 --> 0:02:27.079
<v Speaker 1>off against people like this. Let me show you a sick,

0:02:27.600 --> 0:02:32.560
<v Speaker 1>sick moment that happened yesterday in America, a desecration, but

0:02:33.120 --> 0:02:38.480
<v Speaker 1>there is a presence at the desecration, a disapproving one.

0:02:38.919 --> 0:02:45.520
<v Speaker 1>Let's watch Donald Trump swear in Pambondy alongside Clarence Thomas

0:02:45.880 --> 0:02:47.920
<v Speaker 1>and his insurrectionist wife.

0:02:48.240 --> 0:02:51.799
<v Speaker 2>And I just want to congratulate you, a very special person.

0:02:57.360 --> 0:03:02.120
<v Speaker 2>And I'd also like to thank Clarence Thomas and his

0:03:02.200 --> 0:03:05.519
<v Speaker 2>incredible wife who is here someplace as she is incredible,

0:03:05.600 --> 0:03:06.680
<v Speaker 2>highly respected wife.

0:03:06.720 --> 0:03:06.880
<v Speaker 3>Too.

0:03:06.919 --> 0:03:11.400
<v Speaker 1>I will say, let's stop right there. Jinny Thomas is

0:03:11.480 --> 0:03:16.360
<v Speaker 1>a triple a gray, free range whack job the Beggars description.

0:03:16.760 --> 0:03:20.080
<v Speaker 1>She wasn't just a member of one cult, but two.

0:03:20.240 --> 0:03:25.560
<v Speaker 1>She is an insurrectionist. She has just by stepping across

0:03:25.600 --> 0:03:29.919
<v Speaker 1>the line into the Oval Office, by breathing there, has

0:03:30.000 --> 0:03:33.639
<v Speaker 1>desecrated it, just like Trump and just like her husband,

0:03:33.919 --> 0:03:39.400
<v Speaker 1>the most corrupt Supreme Court justice and American history. He

0:03:39.600 --> 0:03:43.960
<v Speaker 1>is the single biggest mistake historically of the forty first

0:03:44.040 --> 0:03:48.200
<v Speaker 1>presidency of the United States, George Herbert Walker Bush. An

0:03:48.320 --> 0:03:54.120
<v Speaker 1>honorable man who appointed a dishonorable justice, a grifter, a

0:03:54.280 --> 0:03:59.520
<v Speaker 1>con man. Clarence Thomas has long posed as somebody who

0:03:59.640 --> 0:04:02.760
<v Speaker 1>seeks it's the comfort of the American people in his

0:04:02.960 --> 0:04:06.600
<v Speaker 1>travels about the country in a coach motor home, where

0:04:06.640 --> 0:04:11.760
<v Speaker 1>he delights sleeping in the parking lots of Walmarts, nestled

0:04:12.080 --> 0:04:15.440
<v Speaker 1>in the goodness of the people. The truth is Clarence

0:04:15.480 --> 0:04:20.320
<v Speaker 1>Thomas flies around the world the puppet and the horror

0:04:20.640 --> 0:04:25.279
<v Speaker 1>of his billionaire masters. He goes by private jet to

0:04:25.440 --> 0:04:29.880
<v Speaker 1>their yachts, to the most remote places in the world.

0:04:30.160 --> 0:04:35.159
<v Speaker 1>He gets to live the fabulous life because Clarence Thomas

0:04:35.240 --> 0:04:39.120
<v Speaker 1>has decided that he's above the law, just like the

0:04:39.279 --> 0:04:44.080
<v Speaker 1>man he has made above the law. Let's turn to

0:04:44.160 --> 0:04:48.279
<v Speaker 1>the twenty seven year old White House Press Secretary her

0:04:48.520 --> 0:04:52.200
<v Speaker 1>stridency and listen to her yell a little bit about

0:04:52.520 --> 0:04:57.680
<v Speaker 1>how we should appreciate the idiocies and the imbecility of

0:04:57.760 --> 0:04:58.400
<v Speaker 1>our dear.

0:04:58.360 --> 0:05:01.599
<v Speaker 4>Leader President Trump as an outside of the box thinker

0:05:01.640 --> 0:05:05.480
<v Speaker 4>and a visionary leader who solves problems that many others,

0:05:05.720 --> 0:05:08.880
<v Speaker 4>especially in this city, claim are unsolvable.

0:05:09.800 --> 0:05:15.159
<v Speaker 1>Carolyn Levitt, Wow, doesn't she remind you of somebody bag Dad, Bob,

0:05:15.640 --> 0:05:19.440
<v Speaker 1>of all of the Trump liars behind that podium. It

0:05:19.600 --> 0:05:25.000
<v Speaker 1>is amazing that he keeps finding somebody with the capacity

0:05:25.120 --> 0:05:30.080
<v Speaker 1>to step one rung higher on that ladder. It is extraordinary.

0:05:30.400 --> 0:05:35.400
<v Speaker 1>Of course, while all of this happens, Secretary Little Marco

0:05:35.920 --> 0:05:41.120
<v Speaker 1>is dismantling US foreign aid and telling foreign service officers

0:05:41.120 --> 0:05:45.160
<v Speaker 1>to be patient to trust him and over at the Pentagon.

0:05:45.520 --> 0:05:50.120
<v Speaker 1>If you have any connection to any context or concept

0:05:50.400 --> 0:05:55.479
<v Speaker 1>of emotional intelligence, reading this room shouldn't be very difficult.

0:05:55.640 --> 0:05:58.960
<v Speaker 1>Let's look at Pete rock back and forth in the chair.

0:05:59.240 --> 0:06:02.679
<v Speaker 1>Doesn't really seemed to be in command when you watch

0:06:02.720 --> 0:06:06.719
<v Speaker 1>it with audio Office what's he doing there? Well, let's listen.

0:06:07.440 --> 0:06:11.440
<v Speaker 4>We've supplied munitions that were previously not supplied.

0:06:11.960 --> 0:06:16.160
<v Speaker 1>They're useful in eradicating radical enemies, and we are committed

0:06:16.200 --> 0:06:17.080
<v Speaker 1>to continue.

0:06:16.720 --> 0:06:17.080
<v Speaker 2>To do so.

0:06:18.120 --> 0:06:22.520
<v Speaker 1>Every person in that room in absolute agreement that, holy

0:06:22.760 --> 0:06:27.360
<v Speaker 1>sh this buffoon is the secretary of Defense, This guy, who,

0:06:27.480 --> 0:06:31.400
<v Speaker 1>no doubt will be scraping off to Laura Ingram like

0:06:31.480 --> 0:06:33.880
<v Speaker 1>we want all of our defense secretaries to do by

0:06:33.880 --> 0:06:34.880
<v Speaker 1>the nine pm hour.

0:06:35.520 --> 0:06:39.599
<v Speaker 3>This is an outside the box thinker who understands Laura

0:06:40.120 --> 0:06:43.040
<v Speaker 3>the definition of insanity, which is trying to do the

0:06:43.040 --> 0:06:45.280
<v Speaker 3>same thing and hoping for a different result.

0:06:45.960 --> 0:06:50.560
<v Speaker 1>Here's the deal. In order to stop Carolyn Levitt's insanity,

0:06:50.920 --> 0:06:54.880
<v Speaker 1>in order to stop pambond, these abuses of the law,

0:06:55.200 --> 0:06:58.520
<v Speaker 1>in order to stop what's coming, somebody has to beat

0:06:58.560 --> 0:07:01.400
<v Speaker 1>these people in an election. It's as simple as that.

0:07:01.920 --> 0:07:05.000
<v Speaker 1>And so we are at the beginning, not the beginning

0:07:05.080 --> 0:07:07.839
<v Speaker 1>of the end, not the end of the beginning. We

0:07:07.880 --> 0:07:12.360
<v Speaker 1>are at the beginning. After ten years, Donald Trump did it.

0:07:12.760 --> 0:07:16.120
<v Speaker 1>He's king of the mountain, and this time he's got

0:07:16.120 --> 0:07:20.480
<v Speaker 1>a plan. And that plan is dependent on one man,

0:07:20.760 --> 0:07:25.520
<v Speaker 1>this man, Elon Musk. And Elon Musk is becoming more

0:07:25.600 --> 0:07:29.960
<v Speaker 1>unpopular by the day. This South African by birth, who

0:07:30.040 --> 0:07:35.480
<v Speaker 1>is granted the privileges of American citizenship, has no goddamn right,

0:07:35.960 --> 0:07:39.360
<v Speaker 1>no matter how much money he has, to burn down

0:07:39.400 --> 0:07:43.680
<v Speaker 1>the constitution of the United States, because in our country,

0:07:43.960 --> 0:07:47.320
<v Speaker 1>no matter how stup these people are, it is the

0:07:47.440 --> 0:07:52.000
<v Speaker 1>Congress that makes decisions on how we spend money, who

0:07:52.040 --> 0:07:55.600
<v Speaker 1>gets it and who doesn't, And every two years we

0:07:55.760 --> 0:08:00.360
<v Speaker 1>have elections. The truth of that matter is mostly those

0:08:00.480 --> 0:08:04.200
<v Speaker 1>members of Congress pick their voters as opposed to the

0:08:04.280 --> 0:08:08.880
<v Speaker 1>other way around. But there is still enough agency, combined

0:08:09.200 --> 0:08:13.560
<v Speaker 1>with enough opportunity for there to be changes in the

0:08:13.560 --> 0:08:18.080
<v Speaker 1>majorities in the Congress until one side quit fighting, and

0:08:18.160 --> 0:08:20.760
<v Speaker 1>he gave it all the way to Trump, gave it

0:08:20.800 --> 0:08:23.240
<v Speaker 1>all the way to Elon Musk so he could be

0:08:23.360 --> 0:08:27.040
<v Speaker 1>the star of his own reality show and share with

0:08:27.120 --> 0:08:30.800
<v Speaker 1>the world the nonsense that comes through his head. Does

0:08:30.920 --> 0:08:34.679
<v Speaker 1>anybody else find this strange? Because I'm going to leave

0:08:34.720 --> 0:08:36.800
<v Speaker 1>it here today as a warning.

0:08:37.360 --> 0:08:45.599
<v Speaker 3>And Tommy Tuberville a great coach. You know, his quarterback

0:08:45.760 --> 0:08:49.640
<v Speaker 3>was named Mahomes. He was a great college coach. And

0:08:50.040 --> 0:08:52.600
<v Speaker 3>I said, how good was He said, you don't want

0:08:52.640 --> 0:08:54.480
<v Speaker 3>to know how good. He made me into a great

0:08:54.520 --> 0:08:57.959
<v Speaker 3>coach's pretty good quarterback, right.

0:08:58.480 --> 0:09:03.960
<v Speaker 1>Tommy Turberville did not coach Patrick Mahomes. He didn't, just

0:09:04.040 --> 0:09:07.480
<v Speaker 1>like I did not land on Omaha Beach on d

0:09:07.640 --> 0:09:12.360
<v Speaker 1>Day or walk on the moon, just like Trump doesn't

0:09:12.480 --> 0:09:15.760
<v Speaker 1>ride a horse to work. I don't know any other

0:09:15.800 --> 0:09:18.440
<v Speaker 1>way to say it. So when you watch this, what's

0:09:18.520 --> 0:09:23.840
<v Speaker 1>going on in Donald Trump's had? What imaginary conversation has

0:09:23.920 --> 0:09:28.600
<v Speaker 1>taken place? Does Tommy Tarberville when he hears Trump say this,

0:09:29.040 --> 0:09:33.160
<v Speaker 1>does he remember it? Also, if we had journalism in America,

0:09:33.520 --> 0:09:36.079
<v Speaker 1>someone would be able to figure it out. But since

0:09:36.080 --> 0:09:40.280
<v Speaker 1>we don't, or in Washington we have Politico, I'll take

0:09:40.320 --> 0:09:43.920
<v Speaker 1>a guess they're in on the imagination together. And let

0:09:43.920 --> 0:09:46.840
<v Speaker 1>me tell you something. Whether it's the war in Canada,

0:09:47.120 --> 0:09:50.880
<v Speaker 1>the war in Panama, the war against Denmark for Greenland,

0:09:51.280 --> 0:09:55.000
<v Speaker 1>or the Great Trump Village in the Gaza Strip, his

0:09:55.080 --> 0:09:58.960
<v Speaker 1>imagination is going to cause a lot of damage by

0:09:59.000 --> 0:10:03.600
<v Speaker 1>the time Nightmare gets to its end. This is the morning.

0:10:05.440 --> 0:10:08.200
