1 00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:04,040 Speaker 1: The rule of law is under assault, and what Donald 2 00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:07,720 Speaker 1: Trump is promising is the force of a new type 3 00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:11,840 Speaker 1: of law that will stigmatize, that will target on the 4 00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:15,200 Speaker 1: base of an emotional reaction from a mom Get them, 5 00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:20,000 Speaker 1: punish them, stigmatize them. You're under assault from who the 6 00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:24,599 Speaker 1: black people, the brown people, the Asian people, anybody who 7 00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:27,720 Speaker 1: looks different. It is the twenty fourth of May. One 8 00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:30,680 Speaker 1: hundred and sixty five days remain until the American people 9 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:35,440 Speaker 1: will decide who sits in the Oval office. This is 10 00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:42,919 Speaker 1: the warning. Yesterday, Donald Trump left the Manhattan Courthouse and 11 00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 1: crossed over into the Bronx, where he delivered one of 12 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:51,720 Speaker 1: his most unhinged speeches of twenty twenty four. His words 13 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 1: are nonsensical. 14 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:56,960 Speaker 2: They're coming from so many places. We don't have any idea. 15 00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 2: In many cases, we don't even know what the language. 16 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 2: You have, languages that people don't even know about. 17 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 1: What makes them dangerous is the intention to enforce them 18 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 1: with the power of the presidency, with the force of law. 19 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 1: What Donald Trump is promising is a mass deportation campaign. 20 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:21,480 Speaker 2: They cannot stay. We will immediately begin the largest criminal 21 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 2: deportation operation in our country's history. Because this situation is 22 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 2: sustainable by no country, No country can sustain this. 23 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:40,399 Speaker 1: You could hear the incited crowd yelling send them back, 24 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: send them back, send them back. There is a thin 25 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 1: line at a Trump rally between an incited crowd and 26 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 1: a mob. We've seen the mob turn to violence before, 27 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 1: on January sixth of twenty twenty one, when an incited 28 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 1: mob of political extreme missed attacked the United States Capital. 29 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 1: Please notice some of the flags that were flying high 30 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 1: during the attack on the peaceful transition of power. These 31 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 1: all together are flags of fascism that support the rhetoric 32 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 1: and the cause of a fascist. Who is the Republican 33 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:25,920 Speaker 1: slash meganominee for president who promises to lock up his 34 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:30,640 Speaker 1: political opponents. Let's listen, do you regret not locking her up? 35 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: And if your president again, will you lock people up? Well, 36 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:36,079 Speaker 1: I'll give you an example. 37 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 2: The answers you have no choice because they're doing. 38 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:45,640 Speaker 1: It as who promises retribution, who promises revenge, who over 39 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 1: and over again stigmatizes a minority group as the other 40 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 1: and alleges nefarious intent, stigmatizes them as an enemy, a poison, 41 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: a fifth cole and within he did it in the 42 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 1: Bronx talking about Chinese Americans. 43 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 2: Thege numbers of people are coming in from China. And 44 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 2: if you look at these people, did you see him? 45 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,800 Speaker 2: They are physically fit. They're nineteen to twenty five. Almost 46 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 2: everyone is a male, and they look like fighting age. 47 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 2: I think they're building an army. They're twenty nine thousand 48 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,959 Speaker 2: people over the last I think they're building. They want 49 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 2: to get us from within. 50 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 1: I think they're building an army. In Trump's dangerous fictionalized imagination, 51 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: there is an invading army of Chinese men pouring over 52 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 1: the southern border with their bedrolls and Coleman campstows, waiting 53 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 1: to wage war against the American people at the right moment, 54 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:48,839 Speaker 1: sometime in the distant future, when the whistle blows. This 55 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: is nothing new. It's just an update on the old 56 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 1: yellow paridemic GAGHERI from times gone by. But that's not 57 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: the worst of what Trump is taught talking about it. 58 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 1: Let's listen to Trump talk about immunizing the police to 59 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 1: do violence across America if they wish to do, and 60 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 1: understand the political intent of what he's promising. 61 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 2: I'm going to indemnify all police officers and law enforcement 62 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:23,719 Speaker 2: officials throughout the United States to protect them from being 63 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 2: destroyed by the radical left for taking strong actions on crime. 64 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 2: And remember, black, Hispanic Asian people need this protection and 65 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,280 Speaker 2: safety more than anyone else. Don't ever forget it. And 66 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,719 Speaker 2: after years of talk by the radical left Democrats, we 67 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 2: are going to give them the protection they need and 68 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,839 Speaker 2: we're going to protect our police. We're going to make 69 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 2: sure they do a great job. 70 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 1: But before we examine closely what it is that he says, 71 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 1: let's back up a bit. Let's back up to that 72 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 1: moment in the Oval Office when Donald Trump is asking 73 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:02,160 Speaker 1: the Chairman of the tr chiefs of Staff and senior 74 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 1: military leaders if he can order the American military to 75 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: wound lack people peacefully protesting in front of the White House, 76 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,719 Speaker 1: asking if the armed forces of the United States can 77 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 1: shoot them in the legs, in the arms to deter them. Now, 78 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: what wound up happening on that day was a tear 79 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 1: gas attack and an assault on peaceful protesters by government thugs, 80 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: jack booted thugs, so to speak. They lacked identification, they 81 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:39,040 Speaker 1: lacked badges, they lacked any markings whatsoever. They were imported 82 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,839 Speaker 1: from the Federal Bureau of Prisons and they were turned 83 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:45,479 Speaker 1: loose to do violence. And the simple fact of the 84 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 1: matter is they should not be immunized in a special 85 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 1: category protected from justice, because there is a long history 86 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 1: of abuse. When racists are given a badge and a 87 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:03,840 Speaker 1: gun in a Marria, tragedy ensues George Floyd, the Edmund 88 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:07,599 Speaker 1: Pettis Bridge. What all of these actions have in common 89 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:12,720 Speaker 1: is their immorality, but also their criminality is their criminal acts. 90 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 1: And no officer of the law should have a license 91 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 1: to be a criminal. It is antithetical and it is dangerous. 92 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 1: The rule of law is under assault. And what Donald 93 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 1: Trump is promising is the force of a new type 94 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 1: of law that will stigmatize, that will target on the 95 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 1: base of an emotional reaction from a mom. Get them, 96 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: punish them, stigmatize them. You under assault from who the 97 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 1: black people, the brown people, the Asian people, anybody who 98 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:50,920 Speaker 1: looks different. This isn't a new argument in American life. 99 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 1: It's a reassertion of an old dogma thought extinguished in 100 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 1: the third decade of the twenty first century by a 101 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 1: man who leads a police cause that promises now, in 102 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,799 Speaker 1: one hundred and sixty five short days, to do two things. 103 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 1: If it wins to dismantle completely the federal government of 104 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: the United States and the United States Civil Service, making 105 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 1: an oath necessary for government service. And that oath is 106 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: to Donald Trump, the man above the nation, above the flag, 107 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 1: above the Constitution of the United States. It is the 108 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 1: most dangerous idea since the Confederate Constitution. It is appalling, 109 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 1: but it is real and it is happening. What Donald 110 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 1: Trump is doing in the Bronx is making promises that 111 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 1: he intends to keep. And these promises aren't about making 112 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 1: your life better or even pretending to care that he 113 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 1: wants to make your life better. No, these promises are 114 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 1: about the execution of power against enemies, against scapegoats, to say, 115 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:04,239 Speaker 1: the lust of a mob. Trump feeds off of the energy. 116 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 1: He feeds off of the anger. He fuels it and 117 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 1: is fueled by it. Let's watch. 118 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 2: It's a very serious, horrible thing. It would have never 119 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 2: happened if the election weren't rigged, it would have never happened. 120 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: Let me introduce you to a senior United States Airman, 121 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: Roger Fortson. He was shot and killed by Florida sheriff's 122 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 1: deputy from Oscaloosa County. Airman Fortune was shot six times. 123 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,679 Speaker 1: The sheriff's office knocked on his door. He answered it 124 00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: and oft time, surprised by the knock, with a handgun 125 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,840 Speaker 1: at his side in his hand. He did not draw it, 126 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 1: He did not point it in a dangerous or threatening manner. 127 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 1: It was his right to be armed. It was his 128 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:55,719 Speaker 1: right to beholding that weapon at his side answering his 129 00:08:55,840 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 1: door in the state of Florida under Florida law. The 130 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 1: police officer asked him to step back and shot him 131 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 1: six times. A senior airman of the United States Air Force, 132 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 1: a man serving his country who swore an oath to 133 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 1: defend the constitution of the United States. The sheriff's deputy 134 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: killed an American airmen. Our airmen or soldiers, or sailors 135 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,320 Speaker 1: or marines, defend the nation, wear the cloth of the nation. 136 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 1: Look at the grief on the faces of the Air 137 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 1: Force personnel. Ponder it the indecency of this act. It 138 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 1: is up to a jury to decide if it is criminal. 139 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 1: But certainly the man who killed Senior Airman Roger Fortune 140 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:40,319 Speaker 1: does not deserve an immunity to be protected just because 141 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 1: he's a cop. When you put on a badge, the 142 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 1: only license that gives you is to protect and serves. 143 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 1: It is no mark of immunity to hunt and to kill, 144 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:54,560 Speaker 1: and that is a sad tradition for a lot of 145 00:09:55,280 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 1: law enforcement historically across swats of a America where injustice 146 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 1: has been delivered at the tip of a gun, the 147 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:09,959 Speaker 1: blunt force of a baton with the authority of a badge, 148 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:13,839 Speaker 1: a license to kill with the designation of a law 149 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 1: enforcement badge is a license to commit evil and to 150 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,559 Speaker 1: do terrible things. Authority and power in America must always 151 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:25,320 Speaker 1: be restrained. And when you hear someone talking about unleashing 152 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 1: it in the name of control, in the name of order, 153 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: these are words from somebody who does not believe in 154 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 1: the American project, does not believe in the American experiment, 155 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 1: who wants to impose by force what they cannot achieve 156 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:46,559 Speaker 1: by persuasion. That is the promise inherent and Donald Trump's 157 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 1: unhinged remarks, these mass deportation camps from which millions will 158 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:58,200 Speaker 1: be cast out, will require a police state from sea 159 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 1: to shining sea. Donald Trump has already laid down that 160 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 1: he intends to deploy the military into the country for 161 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 1: law enforcement against the American people, to get the criminals. 162 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 1: And how do we know who's criminal. Well, Donald Trump 163 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 1: told us out is rally. We just have to look 164 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 1: at their skin to suspect them that they don't belong, 165 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 1: that they're not part of the American family or story. 166 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:27,200 Speaker 1: May I see your papers please? We must resist us. 167 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: What Donald Trump said in the Bronx matters, and it 168 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 1: should be heard.
