And 6 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:42,120 Speaker 1: I'm going to tell you for the duration of this 7 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:49,840 Speaker 1: show that I found myself today really thinking about what 8 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:53,880 Speaker 1: we voted for. You know, I have been replaying, as 9 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:56,560 Speaker 1: I'm certain many of you have been doing over the 10 00:00:56,640 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 1: past year, replaying the last several years in your head, 11 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:07,119 Speaker 1: particularly our push and our fight on this show, on 12 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:11,399 Speaker 1: other places, on other shows, in writing that I did 13 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 1: to get people out to vote, to get people to 14 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 1: recognize the urgency of the times that we were living in, 15 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 1: and that Donald Trump and the Republican Party or a 16 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: dangerous cult. They are a dangerous cult that every day 17 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 1: has worked to weaponize health pandemic, work to weaponize fear, 18 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:42,319 Speaker 1: have done everything within their power and outside of their 19 00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:46,960 Speaker 1: power to destroy America. You know, for the last couple 20 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 1: of years, the picture has been so clearly painted as 21 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 1: to who these people are and what they want, and 22 00:01:55,720 --> 00:02:00,360 Speaker 1: yet the mainstream media continues to act utterly surprised, like 23 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 1: they are completely caught off guard by what it is 24 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 1: that Republicans are aiming for, and they are telling you 25 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 1: every day out loud. You're at Kevin McCarthy, that's spineless, 26 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 1: translucent jellyfish. Get up in a pressor yesterday where he 27 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 1: lambasted once again their favorite pinata. Nancy Pelosi talked about 28 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:30,000 Speaker 1: playing politics where I'm like, bitch, where are you like? 29 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: I can't stand the fucking term playing politics. Politics is 30 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 1: a fucking game like everything else. And that's what you're doing, 31 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 1: Kevin McCarthy, when you came out on the floor scared 32 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 1: shitless right following the one six insurrections, talking about how 33 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:52,240 Speaker 1: this lands squarely on the shoulders of Donald Trump, only 34 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 1: to run sniveling to kiss his rain down in Mara Lago. 35 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: But a few weeks later, you are playing politics when 36 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 1: you decide right that the Marjorie Taylor Greens and the 37 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 1: Lauren Baubert's are going to be the anointed ones of 38 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: your caucus of your party, right, that you are not 39 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 1: going to condemn any actions that promote violence or xenophobia 40 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 1: or racism, or in fact spread lies about a deadly 41 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 1: health pandemic where our hospitals are once again at their 42 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 1: breaking point, which I will talk about the Biden administration 43 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:31,640 Speaker 1: deciding to deploy medical army personnel to six states in 44 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: order to battle against the search. But you are a 45 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: part of a caucus, Dear sir, you are the leader. 46 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 1: And I put that in fucking air quotes because I 47 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: don't know where he's leading anybody except to a buffet 48 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 1: at Mara Lago, A leader of a caucus that has 49 00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 1: been perpetuating lies. Right, we keep talking about how these 50 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 1: people are going to be remember it in history books 51 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 1: that will most likely be burned because that's the environment 52 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 1: that we are living in. It is so dark where 53 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 1: we are right now that I don't know which way 54 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,039 Speaker 1: we walk in or run in in order to get out. 55 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:19,840 Speaker 1: But I can tell you that the end of this 56 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:25,679 Speaker 1: week had me thinking to myself self, what the fuck 57 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 1: did I waste so much energy for? Why did I 58 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: tell people, my family, friends, you all listeners out there, 59 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 1: go vote? Register people. This is important. Your life depends 60 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 1: on it. Only to have this administration cut short a 61 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:50,919 Speaker 1: year into its four year term, not by Republicans, no 62 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 1: by members of their own party, by traders. You know 63 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: who those traders are, the ones that are outspoken. Kirsten 64 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:11,359 Speaker 1: Cinema and Joe Mansion. Kirsten Cinema found it appropriate to 65 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:15,479 Speaker 1: give a press conference ahead of the President's arrival to 66 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 1: Capital Hill, which, let me just tell you, I know 67 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,919 Speaker 1: that we are so far away from normal times, but 68 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 1: let me tell you that in no space and time 69 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 1: is that ever appropriate. You have often heard of people 70 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 1: after they meet with the president, after the President addresses them, 71 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 1: to then speak out on what it is that was 72 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,480 Speaker 1: said and how they feel about it, but never before 73 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: unless you were a member of the other party. So 74 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 1: I want people to get a big picture as to 75 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 1: who Kursten Cinema and Joe Mansion are. Let's stop referring 76 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: to them as moderates because they or not. They are obstructionists. 77 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:09,280 Speaker 1: They are political insurrectionist. Right. They may not have stormed 78 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:13,279 Speaker 1: the Capital, right, they may not have gotten zip ties 79 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 1: and build gallows, but they absolutely with their actions and 80 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 1: with their words, are doing so every single day. As 81 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: we lead into midterms with Democrats having nothing to fucking 82 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:30,479 Speaker 1: show for it, the President's agenda is finished. There will 83 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 1: be no build back better And when progressives said, do 84 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: not decouple the Infrastructure building bill from Build Back Better, 85 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 1: because we're never going to get them past that. They 86 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: need to stay together. But no, the President wanted a 87 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 1: quick win. Oh, Joe Mansion is operating in good faith. 88 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: I said this this week on Woke Wednesday. How many 89 00:06:56,120 --> 00:07:00,160 Speaker 1: times does somebody have to spit in your face to 90 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:02,839 Speaker 1: call you everything but a son of God for you 91 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: to recognize that that person is not your friend, that 92 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 1: they are your enemy. How many times is Joe Mansion 93 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 1: gonna have a gaggle of reporters around him spewing some 94 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 1: bullshit about tax credit, spewing some bullshit about process before 95 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 1: people call him what he is, a fucking liar and 96 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: a treasonous piece of shit. I want Joe Mansion and 97 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 1: Kirsten Cinema shunned. I want them stripped of their committee assignments. 98 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 1: I want people to go after their biggest donors and 99 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 1: start to refer to those individual donors or those corporations 100 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: as racist as Bill Connor two point zero. I tweeted 101 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 1: this yesterday. My three step plan, I said, if I 102 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 1: were in power, I would be running an all out 103 00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 1: media onslaught against Joe Man in Kursten cinema. They would 104 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 1: not be able to walk into a fucking store, They 105 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: would not be able to walk into a bathroom stall, 106 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 1: They would not be able to go anywhere without hearing 107 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 1: the cries and the screams of people telling them that 108 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 1: they are racist, telling them that they are killing our democracy, 109 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 1: telling them that they are both putting the nail in 110 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 1: the coffin of America. Then I would go after Like 111 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 1: I said, they're donors and the donor class, and much 112 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 1: in the same way that Color have changed. A couple 113 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 1: of years ago, uncovered the right wing secret weapon of 114 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 1: alec Right that was doing all of putting together the 115 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 1: backdoor policies that then were magically appearing in state and 116 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:59,840 Speaker 1: local levels, voter suppression laws right thinking that they are 117 00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 1: going to buy people off right by day and then 118 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 1: come and steal their vote by night. That is a 119 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 1: quote from the president of Color of Changer, Sean Robinson. 120 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 1: And I say this because it is not enough to 121 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,079 Speaker 1: just go after these people. It's not enough to just 122 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:20,719 Speaker 1: send off some hot tweets. You have got to hit 123 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: them where they hurt. And the only place that they 124 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 1: care about is their bank accounts. They don't give a fuck. 125 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: This is why I said, and I'll say it again, 126 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 1: Joe Mansion and Carson Cinema are political prostitutes. And then 127 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:37,959 Speaker 1: people wanted to come from me, oh, don't talk about 128 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 1: sex workers. Shut the fuck up, because you know, good 129 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 1: god damn well, that ain't nobody trying to degrade anybody's 130 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 1: sex work, which is why I said political prostitutes. They 131 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 1: are turning tricks for those that are giving them the 132 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:57,080 Speaker 1: most money. What do you call that if not a whore. 133 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 1: So I'm hired right of the whole carrot approach of 134 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,839 Speaker 1: this administration and other Democrats in leadership referring to these 135 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 1: people as your friend. They are not. You are literally 136 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:16,559 Speaker 1: sleeping with the enemy right now, and it's about time 137 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: that everybody take the fucking kid gloves off, Everybody throw 138 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 1: out their rose colored glasses and pay attention to what 139 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: is happening. This administration is dead in the fucking water. 140 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 1: They might as well be fucking hall monitors right now. 141 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:35,319 Speaker 1: In democracy, they're just there to have the illusion that 142 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 1: there is some type of order and protection, but they 143 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 1: really have no fucking authority. When the President of the 144 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: free fucking World comes out after a meeting and says, 145 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 1: will I don't know if we're going to be able 146 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 1: to get this done. Tell me more about executive power, 147 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:54,560 Speaker 1: because it seems to me that the executive branch only 148 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: has power, unlimited, unwielding power when it is a Republican president, 149 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:03,200 Speaker 1: it's a democrat. Ah well, I don't know what we 150 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 1: can do about that. So I'll just go back to 151 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 1: the White House, right and play with my dogs, or 152 00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 1: put together a really heartfelt speech and slam my hand 153 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 1: down on the desk and add some affect to it 154 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:19,080 Speaker 1: so people think that I mean business, but I do nothing. 155 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 1: I'm done with the fucking pageantry. Yesterday, the Department of 156 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:34,719 Speaker 1: Justice finally did something right with regard to the insurrectionists 157 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 1: for the first time, right in this year long fucking 158 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 1: journey that we have been on right to hold those 159 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,080 Speaker 1: that try to overthrow our government. And and you know, 160 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 1: here's the other thing too, is that mainstream media continues 161 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 1: to say, oh, they tried to overturn an election. They 162 00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 1: weren't just trying to overturn an election, right because once 163 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:05,680 Speaker 1: it in language matters, they were trying to overthrow the government, right, 164 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:09,719 Speaker 1: that's what they were doing. So for the first time, 165 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 1: the Department of Justice, according to the New York Times 166 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:15,680 Speaker 1: and every other outlet that has been covering it, has 167 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 1: charged the leader of the oath Keepers right. His name 168 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 1: is Stuart Rhodes.

But I want to read for 173 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 1: you the definition right of seditious conspiracy.

But here's the thing myself, 186 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 1: including for years, have loved to say that the people 187 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 1: that follow Donald Trump, the people that are far right right, 188 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:57,920 Speaker 1: are these under educated, right toothless buffoons who live in 189 00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 1: the rust belt, that are Bible, that lack education, lack 190 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,959 Speaker 1: any skills, and so it's easier for them to lop 191 00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:09,079 Speaker 1: on to the lies that are spread by the Republican Party. 192 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 1: With regard to who is responsible for their lat in life, 193 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:15,240 Speaker 1: it is immigrants coming to steal their jobs, it's black 194 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:18,559 Speaker 1: people in affirmative action, it is anything other than themselves, 195 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 1: you know, because you can never have really white people 196 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 1: be responsible for their own actions and their own life. 197 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 1: It is always somebody else that needs to be at fault. 198 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 1: And that is what Donald Trump has tapped into. That 199 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: is what the Republican Party, by virtue of Donald Trump 200 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 1: being their puppet, that is what they have tapped into. 201 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: But this is a thing that we don't want to 202 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 1: have a conversation about because we of course love to 203 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 1: treat white people as individuals, as a part as opposed 204 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 1: to a part of a community and or group. They 205 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 1: get to be individual lone wolfs, They get to be 206 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 1: individually pulling themselves up from their bootstraps, but they never 207 00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 1: get assessed as a collective. And that is the fucking problem. 208 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 1: Stuart Rhodes is nobody's dummy. Stuart Rhodes is a former 209 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 1: Army paratrooper who, according to The New York Times, went 210 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:17,200 Speaker 1: on after being in the Army, to earn a law 211 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 1: degree from Yale. And why do I say that, because 212 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 1: the actions that were put into play well ahead of 213 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 1: January sixth, Because what the Department of Justice and what 214 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 1: cable News is pushing out are the tweets not the tweets, 215 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 1: excuse me, the signal thread, the encrypted signal threads of 216 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:52,640 Speaker 1: conversations between Stuart Rhodes and other members of the Oath Keepers. 217 00:15:52,800 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 1: Because folks, what were they creating on said day? What 218 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 1: were they leading up to? Oh, they were creating an 219 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 1: entire military operation, you see, the Oath Keepers. While their membership, 220 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 1: as they say, is open to everybody, who they are 221 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 1: looking for are ex military or current military, law enforcement 222 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 1: and first responders. From a text that was sent on 223 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:42,080 Speaker 1: December eleventh, weeks before January sixth, Stuart Rhodes essentially said 224 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 1: that if Joe Biden was going to be certified as 225 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 1: president of the United States. Then what would ensue would 226 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 1: be bloody. Okay, what the New York Times has reported 227 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 1: they have charged this is at quote it's members not 228 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:07,479 Speaker 1: only with forcing their way into the building and in 229 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:14,199 Speaker 1: a military style stack, which is a formation, right, but 230 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:21,399 Speaker 1: also with stationing an armed quick reaction force at a 231 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:26,920 Speaker 1: hotel in Virginia to be ready to rush into Washington 232 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:34,119 Speaker 1: if needed. So what reports are saying right now is 233 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 1: that Stuart Rhodes, the head of the oath Keepers, was 234 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 1: not in the Capitol building. But as Merritt Garland had 235 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:44,680 Speaker 1: said in his very tepid Milktoast speech, that he gave 236 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 1: that regardless of whether you were in the Capitol Building 237 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 1: on that day or not, or on the grounds at all, 238 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 1: that you were still going to be charged because, as 239 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:01,760 Speaker 1: he said, right, they were laying the foundation. And to me, 240 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: here's the thing. If I'm laying a foundation, I'm going 241 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:09,679 Speaker 1: after the heaviest sentences possible. Like I get it. He 242 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,040 Speaker 1: wants to move this as a Glenn Kirshner, as our 243 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:15,200 Speaker 1: friend says, as a Rico case, right, where you go 244 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 1: after like the street hustlers, right, if you're looking at drugs, 245 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 1: you go after the street hustlers, Right, you pin them 246 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 1: and then you have them flip, and then that person flip, 247 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 1: and that person flip, and that person flip, until you 248 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 1: move your way up to the kingpins. Right, Except we 249 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:37,000 Speaker 1: already know who the fuck these kingpins are, right, We 250 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 1: don't need anybody to be idd We know because they 251 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:45,600 Speaker 1: were all on the ellipses on January six and they 252 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 1: were giving speeches, and then we already have the phone records. 253 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 1: Are the members of Congress who are also coordinating with 254 00:18:55,400 --> 00:19:02,199 Speaker 1: those that would attempt to overthrow the government. What I 255 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 1: want folks to understand here is that this wasn't a 256 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:15,959 Speaker 1: wayward group of tourists, right. This wasn't MAGA tourists run wild. 257 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:23,639 Speaker 1: This was a strategic, planned out attack, weeks if not months, 258 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 1: if not year in the making in order for us 259 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:31,480 Speaker 1: to get to January sixth. We all want to believe, 260 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:35,159 Speaker 1: and the media has allowed themselves to run with the 261 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:40,520 Speaker 1: lie that people got swept up in the moment, that 262 00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:44,120 Speaker 1: they you know, they got caught up by domestic terrorism. 263 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 1: That Karen and Chad, you know, your mailman, your police officer, 264 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 1: your pastor, they just you know, got caught up with excitement. No, no, no, no, 265 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 1: These people, the Oath Keepers, the Proud Boys, the Boogaloo Boys, 266 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:09,159 Speaker 1: all of these organized membership groups that are filled with 267 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 1: current and active, current active and retired right law enforcement 268 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:23,360 Speaker 1: military first responders. They created a strategic plan. They had 269 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:29,919 Speaker 1: waukie talkies and earpieces. They had stashed weapons around Washington, 270 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:33,720 Speaker 1: d C. And Virginia and I'm certain in Maryland as well. 271 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:41,240 Speaker 1: They had coordination, they had surveillance and eyes. They had plans. 272 00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:46,760 Speaker 1: So while Donald Trump's war room, led by Steve Bannon 273 00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 1: and Juliani, were looking at all of the legal machinations 274 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:55,199 Speaker 1: and all of the ways to thwart the counting, to 275 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 1: thwart the certification on January sixth, and how they were 276 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:05,159 Speaker 1: going to right not certify the election, get Mike Pence, 277 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 1: and if Mike Pence fails, then we're going to move 278 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:13,040 Speaker 1: down the line. They also had their foot soldiers, like 279 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 1: these organizations that Donald Trump, him fucking South told on 280 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 1: national television to stand back and to stand by, ready 281 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:32,880 Speaker 1: and armed and waiting to attack. What do you call 282 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:37,880 Speaker 1: that if not a fucking coup? What do you call that? 283 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 1: If not seditious conspiracy? What do you refer to that? 284 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:47,679 Speaker 1: If not treason? How is it that we do not 285 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:52,720 Speaker 1: have these lawyers at the Department of Justice just running 286 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:56,159 Speaker 1: back Donald Trump's own words, Oh, we don't know what 287 00:21:56,240 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 1: he meant. He fucking told you what he meant. Let's 288 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:07,240 Speaker 1: stop trying to pretend that we don't know. I said 289 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:13,440 Speaker 1: this too on Twitter yesterday because I you know, there 290 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 1: are just some days where I am utterly beside myself, 291 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:25,240 Speaker 1: honestly utterly beside myself, And yesterday was one of those 292 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:36,240 Speaker 1: days where I'm listening to cable news hosts say, well, 293 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: what do you think that they were going to do 294 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 1: with that heavy artillery? Why do you think that they 295 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:45,440 Speaker 1: were dressed in the way that they were. I always 296 00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 1: love the soft balling and performance of neutrality and ignorance 297 00:22:55,040 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 1: around white people's violent actions. I'm gonna keep saying white 298 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 1: folks because I wanted to be beat into everybody's head 299 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:09,680 Speaker 1: that if this was any other fucking group, there would 300 00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 1: have been a drone strike on that fucking house. They 301 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:22,280 Speaker 1: wouldn't have casually brought out the leaders of any black 302 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:32,080 Speaker 1: Muslim Latin X organization who is literally preparing for war 303 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:37,400 Speaker 1: and just you know, say, casually read them their rights 304 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:41,360 Speaker 1: and then you know, make sure that they've dotted all 305 00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:45,400 Speaker 1: of their eyes and tees and then you know, indict them. 306 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 1: They would have killed them, they would have blown them up, 307 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:59,000 Speaker 1: and America would have celebrated. That's the reality, you see, 308 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 1: because when these agencies in the nineteen sixties were wire 309 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 1: tapping Martin Luther King and Malcolm Axe and doing coordinated 310 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:16,480 Speaker 1: efforts and attacks against the Black Panther Party, and mind you, 311 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:22,240 Speaker 1: there is no equivalency here. I just want you to 312 00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:27,200 Speaker 1: see what America has done to those leaders and activists 313 00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 1: that have been at the forefront of fighting for justice 314 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 1: and dignity and jobs and respect. They have beaten them, 315 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 1: they have raped them, they have murdered them, they have 316 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:46,960 Speaker 1: hung them, they have bombed them. And then the mainstream news, 317 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:50,159 Speaker 1: which is complicit in all of it, just chooses not 318 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 1: to cover it so that the larger white American public 319 00:24:55,760 --> 00:25:02,680 Speaker 1: can claim ignorance right and the black community. Black Americans 320 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 1: can feel fucking gasolate on a regular basis because you see, 321 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:10,040 Speaker 1: we know the truth, because not knowing the truth puts 322 00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 1: us in danger. White America, not knowing the truth allows 323 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:22,120 Speaker 1: them to exist in some type of moral Disneyland where 324 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:24,520 Speaker 1: they get to believe that they are so good and 325 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:29,399 Speaker 1: so righteous and so pure, and it's everybody else that 326 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:33,280 Speaker 1: is violent and criminal and heathens, because that's all you 327 00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 1: are fucking fed. Right. You don't know about the bombs 328 00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:45,919 Speaker 1: that were dropped in recently as nineteen eighty six in Philadelphia, 329 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 1: You just learn about that now. You don't know about 330 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:54,440 Speaker 1: the tanks that we're rolling through communities right in LA 331 00:25:54,600 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 1: on the drug war, right, and what they've been doing, 332 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:03,879 Speaker 1: what they have been doing since the beginning of time. 333 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 1: But when it comes to white America's patterns and foundation 334 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:20,680 Speaker 1: of violence, right and hate and anti government sentiments, they're 335 00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:25,720 Speaker 1: treated like upstanding citizens who still have rights. They have 336 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 1: more rights under indictment and being charged with seditious conspiracy 337 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:37,679 Speaker 1: than any innocent black person walking the street today. That 338 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 1: should make us all sick, regardless of your hue. It 339 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:51,200 Speaker 1: should make us all sick that we see blatantly now 340 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:57,919 Speaker 1: how this country operates. It's all about the rule of 341 00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:02,640 Speaker 1: law when we're talking about white people. Oh you know this, 342 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,399 Speaker 1: and this sentence, by the way, if actually going to 343 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 1: trial and convicted, only holds up to twenty years. Right, 344 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:15,480 Speaker 1: But you will find any maneuver, any undercover law to 345 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 1: sentence Let's say a truck driver who made an accident, right, 346 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 1: it was an accident that occurred, but you'll sentence him 347 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:30,359 Speaker 1: to one hundred and ten years. So it's always like, well, 348 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 1: the law says that we can only do acc and 349 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:36,119 Speaker 1: I said, m that's funny because you always seem to 350 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:39,200 Speaker 1: be able to find maneuvers and loopholes around the law 351 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:41,639 Speaker 1: when you decide to throw the book at black and 352 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:44,680 Speaker 1: brown people and then get fucking celebrated for it. Miss 353 00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:56,359 Speaker 1: me with the bullshit. The more that I read about 354 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:04,240 Speaker 1: Stewart Rhodes and the Oath Keepers, the more I'm confused 355 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:09,000 Speaker 1: about how these people have not been broken up and 356 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:13,639 Speaker 1: thrown in jail from the get go. How were these 357 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:19,320 Speaker 1: groups just allowed to operate and organize in broad daylight. 358 00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 1: Their whole premise is to create small militias in order 359 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 1: to overtake states and essentially secede from the United States 360 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 1: of America by force if necessary. They are saying everything 361 00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 1: out loud, and yet we still find White America scratching 362 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 1: its head, going I wonder what they were planning to 363 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:48,200 Speaker 1: do to fucking kill the Vice President, to find whatever 364 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 1: members of Congress that they wanted to execute them and 365 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 1: then to reinstate Donald Trump and then get pardoned and 366 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:04,720 Speaker 1: probably get Congressional Medals of Freedom as patriots. That's what 367 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 1: the fuck they were doing. You know, America is not 368 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 1: just in trouble. America is done. And that's the thing 369 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:23,800 Speaker 1: that I realize every single day. And I was having 370 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 1: this conversation with my producer Andrew, and you know, we 371 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 1: go back and forth on a regular basis, like what 372 00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:40,960 Speaker 1: are we doing, what are we offering? And I said, 373 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 1: you know, the question that we're asking is it is 374 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 1: America over right? Is democracy done? And deep down I 375 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 1: will tell you yes, yes it is. Twenty twenty was 376 00:29:56,400 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 1: our last free and fair election. America as a democracy, 377 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:05,280 Speaker 1: one that you grew up in, is finished. But the 378 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:08,680 Speaker 1: reality is we have to keep fighting. We have to 379 00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 1: fight for the scraps that are left, and we have 380 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 1: to fight for future generations. This is our fight, right, 381 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 1: this is what we are tasked with doing. And we 382 00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:23,200 Speaker 1: do not have the luxury to throw up our hands 383 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 1: and say that we are done, and to say that 384 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 1: it's done. So I'm not going to do anything anymore 385 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:35,600 Speaker 1: because that is what they want. Create chaos, create mayhem, 386 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: exhaust the public. Then they'll turn away from government altogether, 387 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 1: because they'll see that there's no difference but from one 388 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,960 Speaker 1: party to the next, and then you can run rough 389 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:51,479 Speaker 1: shot over the country. Republicans are already telling you what 390 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:56,800 Speaker 1: they are doing when they take back power. Right, They're 391 00:30:56,880 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 1: going to impeach Joe Biden. They're going to impeach Nancy Pelosi. 392 00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:05,520 Speaker 1: They're going to take away committee chairs. They're going to 393 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 1: do whatever they can to censure and fire and kick 394 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 1: out and create one party rule. They're not offering how 395 00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 1: they're going to get us out of this global health pandemic. 396 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 1: They're not offering how they're going to turn the economy around. 397 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,640 Speaker 1: They're not offering how they're going to secure safety nets. No, 398 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 1: that shit is out the window. This is about retribution. Right. 399 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 1: They want you to be terrified. They want you living 400 00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:38,120 Speaker 1: in fear. They want to be able to do and 401 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:42,040 Speaker 1: harm whomever they want, whenever they want, however they want. 402 00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:44,840 Speaker 1: Because they have the courts, they have the cops, they 403 00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:48,880 Speaker 1: have the Congress, they have everything. But they don't have 404 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 1: our fight and they don't have our will. And let 405 00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:54,280 Speaker 1: me tell you something, it is not our elected officials 406 00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:57,080 Speaker 1: that are going to get us out of this, Right, 407 00:31:57,280 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 1: America is headed for more increasingly dark and I mean 408 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:07,720 Speaker 1: midnight dark times. We may be in this space for 409 00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:15,400 Speaker 1: years to come, decades even, but the pendulum will swing back, 410 00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:20,920 Speaker 1: and we will do so violently. I have said many 411 00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:24,760 Speaker 1: a times that things will get bloodier before they get better. 412 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:31,080 Speaker 1: This shit that the oath keepers and the Buggaloo Boys 413 00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:33,560 Speaker 1: and the Proud Boys have been up to over the 414 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 1: past five years, this shit is real. When Dissantis in 415 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:46,880 Speaker 1: Florida holds a pressor and tells you that he wants 416 00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 1: to create his own army of Florida right that will 417 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:58,920 Speaker 1: only listen to him, won't be dictated to or funded 418 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 1: by the federal government. This is who the fuck he 419 00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 1: is talking about. These are the people that he wants. 420 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,800 Speaker 1: When you have members of Congress at say we have 421 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:15,320 Speaker 1: more bullets on our side, when they are putting up crosshairs, 422 00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:19,120 Speaker 1: when they are asking why can't I carry my nine 423 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 1: millimeter on the floor of the house, it's my American right. 424 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 1: Violence is their oath they are telling you, They are 425 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:34,880 Speaker 1: telling us. You know Aimin Mohadeen, who has been a 426 00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:38,520 Speaker 1: guest on WOKF a couple of times over the years 427 00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:42,520 Speaker 1: and is an MSNBC host and host of the podcast 428 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:49,480 Speaker 1: I Think American Radical, which is incredible.

America used to be the place 439 00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 1: that folks pointed to for better or for worse, right 440 00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 1: because we had the biggest mouse and the best pr 441 00:34:57,560 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 1: This is who we want to be, This is what democracy. 442 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:01,879 Speaker 1: He looks like they are looking at us right now 443 00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 1: and saying, whoa Well, that was a good two hundred 444 00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:13,000 Speaker 1: and seventy year run. But this shit is over. Bad 445 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:17,920 Speaker 1: news begets bad news because not only did Joe Biden 446 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,759 Speaker 1: and his administration gets shown up by the likes of 447 00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:26,200 Speaker 1: that denim vest wearing Kursten cinema. But the Supreme Court 448 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:30,279 Speaker 1: also smacked them down this week as well. Right, the 449 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:35,759 Speaker 1: Supreme Court pets blocked the Biden administrations vaccine mandate for 450 00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:41,359 Speaker 1: private companies, large companies that have over a hundred employees 451 00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:46,800 Speaker 1: one hundred plus, which would have mandated vaccinations for eighty 452 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:54,719 Speaker 1: million Americans. Well, the conservative bought Supreme Court has said, 453 00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:59,880 Speaker 1: oh well, osha, Right, the Office of Safety and Health 454 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:05,799 Speaker 1: doesn't have that level of authority to be able to 455 00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:13,799 Speaker 1: demand that private employers with a hundred plus employees mandate vaccinations. Now, 456 00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:17,319 Speaker 1: they can choose to do so on their own, but 457 00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,120 Speaker 1: it can't be mandated by the federal government because they say, oh, 458 00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:23,680 Speaker 1: that would take an active congress. Well, we know how 459 00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:27,319 Speaker 1: dysfunctional congresses and we also know that on this six 460 00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:30,200 Speaker 1: to three conservative court. Where did we think that this 461 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:34,760 Speaker 1: was going so interesting to me? All of the things 462 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:38,120 Speaker 1: that the president can't do when you have a conservative 463 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 1: six to three court. But you can lock children in cages, right, 464 00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:47,080 Speaker 1: You can decide not to provide them with sanitary conditions. Right. 465 00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:51,400 Speaker 1: You can block certain countries into coming in here because 466 00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 1: you don't like their racial makeup. And their religion. You 467 00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 1: can ban people from being able to vote, but no, 468 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:06,840 Speaker 1: when it comes to this conservative court, the president apparently 469 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:11,680 Speaker 1: has no authority. Now, they did uphold the mandate on 470 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:15,000 Speaker 1: healthcare workers and so my thing because they said right 471 00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:20,320 Speaker 1: in the decision that this was too broad of a stroke. 472 00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:24,080 Speaker 1: Will then tell me, Biden administration, why you didn't come 473 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:28,280 Speaker 1: up with right a rebuttal that was about at least 474 00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:38,680 Speaker 1: service facing businesses right, your Delta's right, your airlines, your restaurants, 475 00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:47,080 Speaker 1: your big box stores like Walmart and Target. Why did 476 00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:53,360 Speaker 1: you not make it about public facing employees, customer service 477 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:57,920 Speaker 1: based professions and industry that you are mandating because they 478 00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:03,160 Speaker 1: are interfacing on a regular basis with the public. Why 479 00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:07,760 Speaker 1: it was necessary for these people to be vaccinated instead 480 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:10,520 Speaker 1: of this broad stroke? Who the fuck is not paying 481 00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:13,319 Speaker 1: attention to this court right now and the decisions that 482 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:16,120 Speaker 1: they are making, and who is making them?

Get the fuck out of here again. 485 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:25,960 Speaker 1: How many times do people have to do wrong by 486 00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:33,360 Speaker 1: you for us to realize they are evil people? We 487 00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:35,799 Speaker 1: got a Supreme Court right now that is made up 488 00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:42,360 Speaker 1: of sexual predators, liars, and thieves. That's who's dictating the 489 00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:45,239 Speaker 1: law of the land to the people. Give me a 490 00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:55,520 Speaker 1: fucking break.

But if they're building if the 506 00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:35,800 Speaker 1: radical right is building militias right, which they've been doing 507 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:44,719 Speaker 1: in the open for decades, If they're building militias, if 508 00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:52,680 Speaker 1: they are training people on military strategy. If they are 509 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:59,239 Speaker 1: getting ready and January sixth was just a training exercise, 510 00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:04,319 Speaker 1: think about it like this. If January sixth was just 511 00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:09,600 Speaker 1: a training exercise, what do you think they're coming with next? 512 00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:16,160 Speaker 1: And what is it that Democrats are doing in response, 513 00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:25,239 Speaker 1: waving their finger, talking about history, slamming their hands on 514 00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:30,440 Speaker 1: a desk. What are they doing to stop the assault? 515 00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:38,239 Speaker 1: Because first is the Cold War, which is really what 516 00:41:38,440 --> 00:41:43,680 Speaker 1: happened during the Obama years. Right, I'm going to make 517 00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:49,759 Speaker 1: him a one term president, said Duck Bill Platypus. He 518 00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:55,480 Speaker 1: said it again with the Abiden administration called himself the 519 00:41:55,520 --> 00:42:04,560 Speaker 1: grim reaper. Republicans lined up behind Mitch McConnell, Donald Trump 520 00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:13,440 Speaker 1: up the ante, stand back and stand by. Go take 521 00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:17,319 Speaker 1: your capital back, Go take your country back. What are 522 00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:26,440 Speaker 1: you a bunch of whimps? Real men? Take up guns. 523 00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:41,000 Speaker 1: This is not a loose group of knuckleheads. These are 524 00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:53,520 Speaker 1: elite trained militias that are willing to do whatever whenever 525 00:42:55,040 --> 00:43:01,879 Speaker 1: they get the call. So are we going to sit 526 00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:05,799 Speaker 1: around and wait for that not to come to our door? 527 00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:11,120 Speaker 1: Are we going to sit around and pretend that elections 528 00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:17,080 Speaker 1: alone matter anymore in this climate? Or are we going 529 00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:25,080 Speaker 1: to have finally a come to Jesus fucking moment and 530 00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:29,960 Speaker 1: recognize that we are under threat, that we are at war, 531 00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:39,200 Speaker 1: and that the battle lines have clearly been drawn. Whether 532 00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:41,680 Speaker 1: or not we choose to believe it or not, it 533 00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:47,040 Speaker 1: is happening. We are in the midst of a civil war, folks, 534 00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:52,680 Speaker 1: and they are knuckling up right now, and our Department 535 00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:56,520 Speaker 1: of Justice and this administration has taken their sweet ass time. 536 00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:02,320 Speaker 1: If we do not lock these people up in mass 537 00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:07,759 Speaker 1: at this moment, if this administration does not own this 538 00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:11,239 Speaker 1: as victories for democracy and use that because they ain't 539 00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:21,120 Speaker 1: got nothing else to campaign on, we are toast. The 540 00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:27,160 Speaker 1: question that I'm asking is who is paying attention, who 541 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:36,080 Speaker 1: is in charge? That is it for me today, folks, 542 00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:40,960 Speaker 1: on this Friday, as always, Power to the people and 543 00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:45,439 Speaker 1: to all the people.
