1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,360
Speaker 1: It is Monday, June the ninth. This is the warning

2
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:07,800
Speaker 1: America is in crisis. And one needs look no further

3
00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:11,480
Speaker 1: than the city of Los Angeles to understand that. Let's

4
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:16,200
Speaker 1: look at this scene on the streets and Australian television

5
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:22,400
Speaker 1: reporter broadcasting. Let's watch the law enforcement officer take direct

6
00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:27,720
Speaker 1: aim at her with a rubber bullet and fire firing.

7
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:31,000
Speaker 2: Rubber bullets at protests moving them on through the heart

8
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:34,320
Speaker 2: of la.

9
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 1: And let's remember these scenes in front of the Episcopal

10
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:49,599
Speaker 1: Church and Lafayette Square outside the White House, where Donald

11
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 1: Trump walked outside of the gates, trailed by Mark Milly,

12
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:56,400
Speaker 1: the Chairman of the Droit Chiefs of Staff, who apologized

13
00:00:56,440 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 1: for it. Donald Trump his administration ordered peace. Will protesters

14
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 1: be attacked. They gassed the Episcopal priests at warship in

15
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 1: the church.

16
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 3: Donald Trump went there.

17
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 1: Desecrated the Bible, held it upside down. Donald Trump asked

18
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:17,679
Speaker 1: his Defense Secretary Mark Esper, who was aghast along with

19
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 1: his Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Mark Milly,

20
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:25,839
Speaker 1: if the US military, the armed forces could shoot American

21
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 1: citizens to wounds, not to kill shoot them in the legs.

22
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 1: Is what Trump asked they were aghast, they thought it

23
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:34,920
Speaker 1: was deranged.

24
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 3: But let's be clear over and over again, like here.

25
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 4: People from within, we have some very bad people, we

26
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 4: have some sick people, radical left lunatics, and I think

27
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,720
Speaker 4: the other big and it should be very easily handled

28
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 4: by if necessary, by National Guard or if really necessary,

29
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:53,400
Speaker 4: by the military.

30
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 1: Donald Trump has threat and that should he get back

31
00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:00,480
Speaker 1: into power, he will turn the American military loops on

32
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 1: the American people, that he will look for a pretext

33
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 1: of any type of any sort at any time to

34
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 1: do so. And so one has come to the state

35
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 1: of California, in the city of Los Angeles, Ice in

36
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 1: the form of Tom Homan, the terribly deranged leader, the

37
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 1: thuggish leader of the deportation effort, a name which will

38
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:29,519
Speaker 1: be remembered in ignominy by history. This man who threatens

39
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 1: America's elected officials into Congress, who dares to threaten the

40
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:37,960
Speaker 1: elected leader, the governor of California, somebody who leads with

41
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,400
Speaker 1: an election thirty eight million.

42
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 3: People with jail.

43
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 1: All of this nonsense, Tom Homan Ice Barbie Christy Nome

44
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 1: Corey Lewandowski reported as her lover but also secretly running

45
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 1: the Homeland Security Department with her. All of these people

46
00:02:55,240 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 1: together provoked a response with a militarized operation in a

47
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 1: heavily Hispanic immigrant city in southern California, Powermount. And here

48
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 1: is the result. The provocation worked. The community rose to debate,

49
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 1: and there was violence, and we see rioters carrying Mexican flags,

50
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 1: carrying El Salvadoran flags, growing concrete at law enforcement officers.

51
00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:32,520
Speaker 1: And so this gave Donald Trump all the pretexts he

52
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 1: needed to federalize the California National Guard. This is all theater,

53
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 1: performance theater, fascist theater, but the assertion of power is real.

54
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: And so what we are seeing here is, for the

55
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 1: first time since nineteen sixty five, we see a president

56
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: federalizing troops. Lyndon Johnson did it in Alabama after the

57
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 1: violence at Selma. Now Donald Trump is doing it to

58
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 1: inflict violence by the state on the people. And Donald

59
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 1: Trump now says that there is more of this to come.

60
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 1: He says that troops will be deployed to every American city.

61
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 3: Here is the exact quote. Well, we're going to have

62
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 3: troops everywhere.

63
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:17,480
Speaker 1: We're not going to let this happen to our country.

64
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 4: We're not going to let our country be torn apart.

65
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:21,039
Speaker 2: Like it was a divide.

66
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 1: Meanwhile, armored vehicles, tanks, personnel carriers were being loaded and

67
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:31,039
Speaker 1: transported across the country to Washington, d C. For a

68
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 1: military parade on the anniversary of the US Army to

69
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 1: two hundred and fiftieth, the greatest force for liberation in

70
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 1: world history desecrated when it is forced to march and

71
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 1: to salute Donald Trump on his birthday as a symbol

72
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 1: of his personal power that he's abusing. The Defense Secretary

73
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:57,279
Speaker 1: Pete Hegseeth threatened to deploy the United States Marine Corps

74
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 1: to Los Angeles to quell what Stephen Miller called an insurrection,

75
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:07,719
Speaker 1: never mind the real insurrection, the one on January sixth,

76
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:12,039
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one, when Donald Trump incited a mob to

77
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 1: storm the United States capital to overthrow and overturn an

78
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:20,200
Speaker 1: election result. The law that he has in voked that

79
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 1: gives him the power to federalize the National Guard has

80
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 1: been met with condemnation by every democratic governor in the

81
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:32,359
Speaker 1: state who has attacked it appropriately. So is an assault

82
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 1: on state sovereignty. And part of the crisis that we're

83
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:39,039
Speaker 1: dealing with in this country is the fact that there's

84
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 1: not a single Republican governor that has joined their Democratic

85
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 1: colleagues in the condemnation. Though every single one of them,

86
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 1: except for a few of the most nutty of the bunch,

87
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:54,719
Speaker 1: agrees with their Democratic colleagues. Gavin Newsom seems to be

88
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 1: under significant pressure and duress. Here is the governor of

89
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:01,040
Speaker 1: California in this moment.

90
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:05,479
Speaker 2: Actual it's been here ten years. The fear, the horror,

91
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:07,919
Speaker 2: the hell is this guy? Come after me?

92
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 3: Arrest me.

93
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 2: Let's just get it over with.

94
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:10,360
Speaker 3: Tough guy.

95
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 2: You know, I don't give a damn, but I care

96
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 2: about my community. I care about this community.

97
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 3: The hell are they doing.

98
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 2: These guys need to grow up, They need to stop,

99
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,479
Speaker 2: and we need to push back. And I'm sorry to

100
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 2: be so clear, but that kind of abloviating is exhausting.

101
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 2: So Tom, arrest me, let's go.

102
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,160
Speaker 1: Not so long ago he was sitting down with Steve Bannon,

103
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:38,840
Speaker 1: sitting down with Charlie Kirk. The Musk fight seems like

104
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 1: it was ten years ago, not just days. Donald Trump

105
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 1: broke elon Musk in half. The drug addled richest man

106
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 1: in the world has slinked back to Texas with Steven

107
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 1: Miller's wife as his prize, but not much else unless

108
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 1: you count the data on all of us, he transmitted

109
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 1: to who knows where, and of which there's no account.

110
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:06,480
Speaker 1: But it seems the American media has moved on. Terry Moran,

111
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 1: the veteran journalist at ABC News, has been suspended. Why

112
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 1: because he said this in a tweet about Stephen Miller.

113
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 3: And of course it is true.

114
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 1: Stephen Miller is hateful objectively, so was Gobels hateful?

115
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 3: Was David Douke hateful?

116
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 1: I can point to ten years of statements objectively by

117
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 1: Stephen Miller. If the word bile has meaning in the

118
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 1: English language that meet the definition of the word. What

119
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 1: Terry Morand did was accurately describe the motive for what

120
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:44,640
Speaker 1: are in essence the rage, the anger that's always festered

121
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 1: within Stephen Miller and has been reported as such and

122
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 1: many many, many many profiles of him all the way

123
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 1: back to high school. This Santa Monica Goebels, flush with power,

124
00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:00,040
Speaker 1: and so the man behind me in the pain be

125
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 1: sitting bull. He fought the US government and the US government,

126
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 1: the US army in the nineteenth century killed fifty million

127
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 1: warm blooded animals to starve the indigenous population of the country,

128
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:15,720
Speaker 1: and his submission into starvation onto the reservations. The Saint

129
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 1: Louis filled with Jews trying to escape Hitler's Germany was

130
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 1: denied entry into the United States. There were one thousand

131
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 1: buildings burned in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where Black Wall Street was

132
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:30,680
Speaker 1: burned to the ground. There's been savage racial attacks in

133
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 1: Savannah and Washington, d C.

134
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 3: Mostly they're lost to history.

135
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 1: And to memory, but there have been all manner of

136
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 1: savage attacks by the American government on the people of

137
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,960
Speaker 1: the United States over our long history. And when the

138
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 1: smoke clears, history remembers them and condemns them, and future

139
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 1: leaders apologize for it. But in this moment, Trump is

140
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 1: asserting his power, and where are the democratic voices? Where

141
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:02,720
Speaker 1: are the serious people explaining what's happening that are able

142
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:05,680
Speaker 1: to look into a camera and to say that the

143
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:09,839
Speaker 1: second that Donald Trump federalized those National Guard troops, they

144
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:13,440
Speaker 1: became regular soldiers of the United States Army. And those

145
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 1: regular soldiers of the United States Army are prohibited under

146
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:23,240
Speaker 1: American law, under posse combatatis, from enforcing the law participating

147
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 1: in law enforcement activity on domestic soil unless the Insurrection

148
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,080
Speaker 1: Act is to be invoked, and Donald Trump has not

149
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:35,719
Speaker 1: invoked the Insurrection Act, thankfully because there is no insurrection.

150
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,920
Speaker 1: But he wants to and Pete Hegseth wants to deploy

151
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 1: the Marine Corps, and Stephen Miller wants to see these

152
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:46,559
Speaker 1: troops open fire. Understand that there is an evil in America,

153
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 1: in our land, and it is rising. Donald Trump despises

154
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 1: huge parts of the country, disrespects its leaders, He disdains democracy.

155
00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 1: He hates election outcomes that do not give him carte blanche.

156
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 1: What Donald Trump is doing is asserting the maximum powers

157
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,600
Speaker 1: and then sum of the American presidency. Is this what

158
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:14,960
Speaker 1: the American presidency has become what it was intended to be,

159
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 1: an office for a caesar who can do as he pleases,

160
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:23,959
Speaker 1: a king able to officiously make pronouncements and then enforce

161
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:27,520
Speaker 1: them with the sword of his military against the people

162
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:31,079
Speaker 1: in a system passed down to us of government of

163
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,320
Speaker 1: the people, by the people, for the people.

164
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 3: Absolutely non so.

165
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:40,199
Speaker 1: The mission of opposition in this moment is to speak

166
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 1: clearly to the contours of our society, the elements of

167
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 1: freedom that are sustained by the rule of law, our

168
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 1: rights enshrining by the Constitution. We are a peaceful people

169
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 1: in the United States, of America, who want freedom, who

170
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:01,960
Speaker 1: want prosperity, who want opportunities, And what is being done

171
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:07,080
Speaker 1: in our name by this corrupt, malignant president is not

172
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 1: only appalling, but it weakens us as a people, as

173
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:16,320
Speaker 1: a nation, as a society. It corrupts us, It dishonors us.

174
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 1: The damage that Donald Trump is doing to the United States,

175
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 1: it's hard to put into words. He is tearing at

176
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 1: our values, the very fabric of our society and way

177
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:31,079
Speaker 1: of life.

178
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 3: He's ripping it in half.

179
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 1: We must be strong, we must be peaceful, we must

180
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 1: be resolute.

181
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,319
Speaker 3: Donald Trump wanted.

182
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:42,440
Speaker 1: To antagonize a reaction, and he got one. He got

183
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 1: the pictures he needed of immigrants waving Mexican flags and

184
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:51,880
Speaker 1: foreign flags, as Stephen Miller talked about it, engaged in

185
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:56,440
Speaker 1: insurrection on American soil. Now he will use and abuse

186
00:11:56,520 --> 00:12:00,679
Speaker 1: his power to put it down in our name. Overreach,

187
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 1: the overreaction, all of it will continue to build, All

188
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 1: of the provocations will continue to grow until catastrophe. It's

189
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 1: what Trump has chosen, it's what he wants, and he

190
00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:17,320
Speaker 1: thinks that when there's a reaction to his provocations, it

191
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:21,800
Speaker 1: gives him all that he needs to assert the power

192
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 1: he wants to assert and has long wanted to assert,

193
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,200
Speaker 1: so that he can rule with an iron fist over

194
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 1: an emergency of his making where he can strip the

195
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:37,560
Speaker 1: American people of their liberties under a declaration of martial

196
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:43,120
Speaker 1: law or the Insurrection Act. Preposterous though it may be,

197
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:47,559
Speaker 1: isn't it time we start taking Donald Trump seriously and

198
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 1: the people around them, both literally and seriously, because looking

199
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:56,320
Speaker 1: at what's going on in Los Angeles, it should occur

200
00:12:56,880 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 1: to even the most naive amongst us that he means

201
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:04,719
Speaker 1: every word of the fascist poison that spills forth from

202
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:09,280
Speaker 1: his lips. This is the warning. I'm Steve Schmidt. This

203
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,319
