1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,600
Speaker 1: This is the fifth anniversary of one of the most

2
00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:08,400
Speaker 1: infamous events in American history, the worst attack against the

3
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:13,360
Speaker 1: Constitution since the firing by the Confederacy on Fort Sumter.

4
00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:17,200
Speaker 1: It was a coup incited by a defeated president and

5
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:21,720
Speaker 1: enabled by a gang of sycophants who would rather tell

6
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:26,960
Speaker 1: Donald Trump yes or maintain their comfort by refusing to

7
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:31,200
Speaker 1: tell him no over the maintenance of their constitutional oaths

8
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:34,520
Speaker 1: and their duty to the Republic. What happened on January

9
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:38,720
Speaker 1: sixth was an attack on the cornerstone of American society.

10
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:42,839
Speaker 1: Perhaps the greatest invention in all of American history, one

11
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:46,159
Speaker 1: that exceeds the invention of the airplane, the light bulb,

12
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 1: the telephone. All of it was the peaceful transition of power,

13
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:56,280
Speaker 1: and it held from seventeen ninety seven until January sixth,

14
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one.

15
00:00:57,800 --> 00:00:58,760
Speaker 2: When this happened.

16
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:14,320
Speaker 3: This is the warning.

17
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 1: It was the cost, It was the fruit of all

18
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 1: of the lies. I predicted it in September of twenty twenty.

19
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 1: I said that it would happen, that it was the

20
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 1: inevitable consequence of a president saying that an election had

21
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 1: been stolen, in inferring that it was his opponent who

22
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,320
Speaker 1: was illegitimate. It broke the back of the country. It

23
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 1: destroyed functionally the American Republic. Donald Trump got away with

24
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:46,680
Speaker 1: the coup, and the country has never ever been the same.

25
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 1: The reality of this day is a five years on,

26
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:54,960
Speaker 1: we stand in a moment of national crisis that's unprecedented

27
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 1: across our entire history.

28
00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:58,279
Speaker 2: We have a.

29
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 1: Lawless president, rupt Supreme Court, and a Congress filled with

30
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: unus The idea that there are checks and balances is

31
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 1: a force there are none. Let's listen to Senator Corey

32
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:17,920
Speaker 1: Booker finally tell the American people the truth about the Congress,

33
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 1: about the Senate.

34
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 4: This to me is the problem with Democrats in America

35
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 4: right now is we're willing to be complicit to Donald

36
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,399
Speaker 4: Trump to let this pass through when we have all

37
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 4: the leverage right now there is to say, if you're

38
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:36,919
Speaker 4: as passionate about police as we are, then pass bills

39
00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 4: out of this body that will help the police officers

40
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 4: in Washington. They will help the police officers in Illinois,

41
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,240
Speaker 4: they will help the police officers in New Jersey, they

42
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 4: will help the police officers. Know it, don't be complicit

43
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 4: to the President of the United States, who we both

44
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:56,839
Speaker 4: know doesn't understand that language. Oh please, oh please, don't

45
00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:02,959
Speaker 4: hurt Blue States. We are standing at a moment where

46
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 4: our president is eviscerating the constitution of the United States

47
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,360
Speaker 4: of America, and we're willing.

48
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 2: To go along with that.

49
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 4: Today.

50
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 1: No country with checks and balances they take seriously its

51
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 1: defense would ever allow for an adult, deranged, drunken, imbecile

52
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 1: like Pete Hegsa to be its minister of defense.

53
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:23,400
Speaker 2: None.

54
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 1: All of the things that are playing out in America

55
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 1: are a function of a disease, and that disease is fascism.

56
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 1: Fascism does not rise because it is strong, because it

57
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 1: is noble, because it is virtuous, because it is worthy.

58
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 1: It rises because democracy is weak and corrupt, and it

59
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 1: produces the fascists.

60
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 2: Millions of American.

61
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 1: Voters chose Donald Trump because they believed on the border,

62
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 1: on the economy, and on the question of Joe Biden's fitness,

63
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 1: he the more honest candidate. The failure to stop this

64
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 1: rest with who exactly should we continue to insist that

65
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 1: no one's to blame except for the people who voted

66
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 1: for Trump. Let me say it again, the greatest political

67
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 1: failure in American history is the Democrats in twenty twenty

68
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:26,479
Speaker 1: four who lost an election to an insurrectionist who incited

69
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:31,720
Speaker 1: a coup and incited violence against the Constitution. It is

70
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 1: unbelievable and it is imponderable. After the coup, there was

71
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 1: an opportunity for there to be accountability, but there was

72
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 1: none thanks to Merrick Garland, the worst Attorney general in

73
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:50,839
Speaker 1: American history, the Neville Chamberlain of the Justice Department. He

74
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:57,279
Speaker 1: is the indispensable partner of Pam Bondi for the destruction

75
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,720
Speaker 1: of the rule of law in the United States. And

76
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:04,040
Speaker 1: what follows the destruction of the rule of law in

77
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,559
Speaker 1: the United States is the abuse of the human being,

78
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:14,480
Speaker 1: the abuse of international law. What follows is invasion, war,

79
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 1: international gangsterism.

80
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:21,160
Speaker 2: We have entered into dangerous.

81
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:26,280
Speaker 1: Days from a period of prosperity unknown in all the

82
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 1: history of the world. That piece that upward advancement of

83
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 1: human dignity has ceased. Scientific advancement has been set back,

84
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 1: Medical technology has been set back, breakthroughs have been set back.

85
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 1: Everything has been set back. We are drifting as a

86
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:56,559
Speaker 1: nation towards disaster, towards catastrophe, step by step, day by day.

87
00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: Five years ago this happened and Mitch McConnell said.

88
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:18,040
Speaker 5: This January sixth was a disgrace. American citizens attacked their

89
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:22,039
Speaker 5: own government. They used terrorism to try to stop a

90
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:28,520
Speaker 5: specific peace of domestic business. They did not like fellow

91
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:34,000
Speaker 5: Americans beat and bloodied our own police. They stormed the

92
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 5: center floor, they tried to hunt down the Speaker of

93
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:44,600
Speaker 5: the House. They built a gallows enchanted about murdering.

94
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:46,719
Speaker 2: And Kevin McCarthy said this.

95
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 6: The president bears responsibility for Wednesday's attack on Congress by

96
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:52,160
Speaker 6: mob riders.

97
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 2: And Lindsey Graham said this.

98
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:57,280
Speaker 7: Georgia, they said, the Secretary of they took the law

99
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 7: in his own hands.

100
00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 8: He changed the election laws unlawfully.

101
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:04,599
Speaker 7: A federal judge said, no, I accept the federal judge

102
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 7: even though I don't agree with it. Fraud they said,

103
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 7: there's sixty six thousand people in Georgia under eighteen voted.

104
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:16,000
Speaker 7: How many people believe that. I asked, give me ten

105
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 7: had had one? They said, eight thousand felons in prison

106
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,120
Speaker 7: and Arizona voted give.

107
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:24,240
Speaker 8: Me ten hadn't gotten one.

108
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 7: Does that say there's problems in every election?

109
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 8: I don't buy this. Enough's enough. We got to end it.

110
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:34,840
Speaker 2: And now they say this.

111
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 8: You take down the source of the problem.

112
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,320
Speaker 7: President Trump didn't wake up one day and say, hey,

113
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 7: let's take Venezuela. He did what other people talked about,

114
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 7: but didn't have the balls or the guts to do it.

115
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 8: This is a good thing. This is not intervegetism. This

116
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 8: is making America safer.

117
00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 7: We're going to be more prosperous because of the business deals.

118
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:03,559
Speaker 7: They're going to be Americans alive today because he's shut

119
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 7: down a narco terra st state called Venezuela.

120
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 8: This is a good thing, not a bad thing.

121
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,800
Speaker 9: So used end by your description of Trump as practically

122
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 9: and morally responsible for provoking the events of January sixth,

123
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 9: and potentially criminally responsible and libel.

124
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 5: I don't know how many times you're going to ask

125
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 5: me the same question. I stand by everything I said

126
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 5: on January sixth and February thirteenth of twenty one.

127
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 9: Well, I'm asking you the question because since the past

128
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 9: few months have passed, in our last conversation, you've endorsed

129
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 9: him for reelection.

130
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,800
Speaker 5: You need to get better research. I was asked that

131
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:45,840
Speaker 5: question three years ago if he were the nominee, would

132
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 5: I support it?

133
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 9: And you said you would support who what.

134
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 5: The nominee was because the voters of my party across

135
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:56,080
Speaker 5: the country have made a decision. As the Republican leader

136
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 5: of the Senate, obviously I'm going to support the nominee

137
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:00,479
Speaker 5: of our party.

138
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,040
Speaker 6: Trump is more than a president, right He's also the

139
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 6: cabinet members, He's the speaker. I mean, well, Trump coming

140
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 6: down and telling all the different factions the salt you're done,

141
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,280
Speaker 6: you got enough freedom caucus, knock it off.

142
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 2: They're also I'm not voting for it. They vote for

143
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 2: it because.

144
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,559
Speaker 6: Trump is literally stronger than he's ever been in the

145
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,240
Speaker 6: Republican Party than he is right now.

146
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:26,679
Speaker 1: What they have done is burn the American flag. What

147
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:31,080
Speaker 1: they have done is pissed on the Constitution and turned

148
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 1: it into a meaningless nothingness. The American people must now

149
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 1: decide for We are the last line people who submit

150
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:45,240
Speaker 1: to tyranny and give away their freedom to authority the

151
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:49,400
Speaker 1: likes of which Donald Trump proclaims historically have had a

152
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:53,720
Speaker 1: most difficult time reclaiming it. We may be the worst

153
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 1: Americans that have been because we are the generations that

154
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:03,679
Speaker 1: allowed a affoon, a loon, and a corrupt con man

155
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 1: to take our liberty and flush it down the toilet.

156
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 2: One year of Trump.

157
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:13,360
Speaker 1: We have concentration camps in America, we have secret police,

158
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 1: we have mass surveillance, we have a government focused on

159
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 1: retribution against its critics, and we have war. And soon

160
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:25,760
Speaker 1: the caskets will start coming home covered in American flags.

161
