I'm very excited to welcome back to Woke 4 00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:26,279 Speaker 1: after an extended conversation our friend Ellie Mistol, who is 5 00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:28,680 Speaker 1: a justice correspondent for the Nation, and of course you 6 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:33,880 Speaker 1: see him blowing full fire and truth on MSNBCC, SPAN 7 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:37,680 Speaker 1: and other outlets you know. Today I bring him on 8 00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:42,920 Speaker 1: because I am moving to a place where I want 9 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:50,840 Speaker 1: Merrick Garland gone. I want full campaigns aimed at the administration, 10 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 1: aimed at Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris to 11 00:00:55,840 --> 00:01:00,760 Speaker 1: get him out of the Department of Justice. Garland has 12 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:06,800 Speaker 1: had ten months, ten months to begin an investigation into 13 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:10,959 Speaker 1: one six to alert the public to the fact that 14 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 1: it wasn't just a mantra that no one is above 15 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:16,560 Speaker 1: the law, but that he was going to see to 16 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 1: it that no one was above the law, and that 17 00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:23,840 Speaker 1: those responsible for trying to overthrow our government on January sixth, 18 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 1: all of those involved, including from the President of the 19 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:33,679 Speaker 1: United States his entire fucking cabinet, to the insurrectionist members 20 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 1: of Congress, to the motherfuckers that defecated on the floor 21 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 1: of the Capitol building, that these people would be arrested. Right, 22 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,760 Speaker 1: It's been ten fucking months and only a handful of 23 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 1: people have gotten light sentences for trying to overthrow our government. 24 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: You have Condeliza Rice going on television last week saying 25 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 1: that America wants to turn the page. No, they do not. Actually, 26 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 1: everyone wants to know that the page is not being 27 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 1: turned on our democracy. Americans want to know that they 28 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:09,639 Speaker 1: can have faith in the institutions right that are supposed 29 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 1: to safeguard them from authoritarianism and fascism, that are supposed 30 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,640 Speaker 1: to safeguard them from other insurrections and coups that we 31 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 1: are seeing happen all around the fucking globe. You know, 32 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 1: you think that you watch the news and you see 33 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:25,919 Speaker 1: what is happening in these other countries, and you think 34 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 1: to yourself, oh, that could never happen here. And you know, 35 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 1: the only difference between them and us is that we 36 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 1: are supposed to have systems of accountability. We are supposed 37 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,679 Speaker 1: to have free and fair elections. We are supposed to 38 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 1: have representatives that put their country ahead of their party. 39 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 1: But time and time again, over the last several years, 40 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 1: we are seeing that that is not the case. And 41 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 1: not only that, but when we ushered in a new 42 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:54,799 Speaker 1: administration that we also thought that we were voting for change, 43 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,520 Speaker 1: that we were voting for accountability. Wasn't enough to just 44 00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 1: say that Joe Biden wasn't going to be Donald Trump. 45 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 1: We wanted him to be better, and we wanted him 46 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: to hold Donald Trump accountable, to make an example of 47 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: him so that it would be known that you try 48 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 1: an attempt to overthrow and thwart our democracy, We're coming 49 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: for you. But that's not what we're seeing, is it. 50 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: There were two major articles that have come out, one 51 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,359 Speaker 1: in the Rolling Stones and another one in the Washington Post, 52 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 1: both being done by investigative reporters that are uncovering through 53 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: contact with both planners and people who were present during 54 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 1: the insurrection about how they had not one, not two, 55 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 1: but multiple meetings with members of Congress, multiple meetings with 56 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: White House staff. Where do you think that the people 57 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 1: got these plans in the Capitol building and knew exactly 58 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 1: where to go? I have been saying this since the beginning. 59 00:03:55,160 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 1: I worked on Capitol Hill right for many years. Even 60 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 1: I don't know my way around all of the intricate 61 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 1: turns and what have you. Indoors that are not marked, 62 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: but they knew what doors to go into. They knew 63 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 1: where Whip Clyburn's capital office was as opposed to his 64 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: regular Congressional office, and how to get there. So these 65 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,719 Speaker 1: are the people that have been called out in the 66 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:27,479 Speaker 1: Rolling Stones article. Paul Gosser, who is a representative from Arizona. 67 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: Now Paul Gosser. According to these two insurrectionists who the 68 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:34,600 Speaker 1: Rolling Stones has been in contact with, have said that 69 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 1: when they spoke with his office and staff multiple times, 70 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 1: that he talked about dangling and presenting them with blanket pardons. Right, 71 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 1: providing people with blanket pardons. Just do our bidding, right, 72 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: hang the vice president, do whatever needs to be done 73 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 1: in order to keep Trump in office. You're doing your 74 00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 1: patriotic duty and we'll have your back. That's what Paul 75 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: Gosser apparently was telling insurrectionists that he met with. Right. 76 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:08,599 Speaker 1: Then you have Lauren Bobert. You have Moe Brooks, who 77 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: is already being sued. Right if you remember, he is 78 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:17,480 Speaker 1: being sued by another member of Congress for his involvement 79 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 1: and his speech at the insurrection. Remember that Moe Brooks 80 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 1: if I'm not if I'm remembering correctly, was the one 81 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 1: that decided that he was going to attend the rally 82 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,840 Speaker 1: with body armor on underneath his clothes so that he 83 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:35,839 Speaker 1: could be, you know, quote ready for anything. He's being 84 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 1: sued by Eric Swalwell. Then you have Madison Cawthorne, you 85 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 1: have Andy Biggs, and you have Representative go mart Those 86 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 1: are just the handful whose names. And by the way, 87 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 1: these are people who also, following the insurrection, still voted 88 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: to decertify the election. So we knew that these people 89 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,600 Speaker 1: have been involved. Where are the FBI investigations into them? 90 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:10,720 Speaker 1: Where's the DOJ's indictments? Not to mention the fact that 91 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: these people in the Rolling Stones article also said that 92 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 1: they met with Mark Meadows. We also know that there 93 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 1: was a war room that was put together that Steve Bannon, 94 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 1: John Eastman, Rudy Giuliani and others had activated at the 95 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 1: Willard Hotel. So how is it that we have all 96 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: of this investigative reporting, all of this information that is 97 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 1: now being disseminated through our media streams, and yet I 98 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:44,279 Speaker 1: hear nothing coming out of the Department of Justice. We 99 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: hear no indictments, and it's been ten goddamn months. You 100 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:53,600 Speaker 1: don't even hear this administration speaking in candid terms every 101 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 1: single day about how justice will prevail and that we 102 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,920 Speaker 1: will ensure that the intended coup, or, as Bill Maher 103 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 1: has said, this slow moving coup. Because here's the thing, folks, 104 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 1: it's still actually unfolding and they are winning. That's the reality. 105 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 1: They have already implemented hundreds of vote of suppression laws, 106 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 1: They have installed new secretaries of States or getting ready to. 107 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 1: They are running for school board and city council. They 108 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 1: are doing everything that they can to make sure that 109 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 1: once Democrats lose, because they will, because that's what Democrats 110 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:41,239 Speaker 1: are good at, its fucking losing any bit of power 111 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 1: that the people give them because they're too busy trying 112 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 1: to As my favorite movie says, the American president, too 113 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 1: busy trying to hold onto their jobs instead of actually 114 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 1: doing their fucking jobs. So whose problem is it going 115 00:07:56,840 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 1: to be when Democrats lose in twenty twenty two and 116 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 1: Kevin McCarthy takes the gavel from Nancy Pelosi? Where do 117 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 1: you think they're going to be turning their investigations too? 118 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 1: It's sure as fuck isn't going to be the insurrection. 119 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what they're going to do. They're going 120 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 1: to turn the investigations over to Afghanistan and turn that 121 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 1: into Biden's Benghazi. That they are going to open up 122 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 1: investigations into their political opponents in the same way that 123 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 1: Donald Trump was and wanted the Department of Justice to 124 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 1: do on his behalf. And then when they regain the 125 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,960 Speaker 1: Senate and Mitch McConnell once again picks up the gavel, 126 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: what do you think is going to be the number 127 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: one thing on his mind? Oh, probably ending the filibuster. 128 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 1: But he doesn't give a shit. He'll blow up whatever 129 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 1: he needs to blow up in order to block justices 130 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,839 Speaker 1: from being sat so that he can finish the ransacking 131 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 1: of America's judicial system. Folks. The writing is on the wall, 132 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:57,679 Speaker 1: and it is so fucking obvious to me what is happening. 133 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,560 Speaker 1: And all I can think of is is this Department 134 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 1: of Justice in cahoots? Right? Like is Merritt Garland on 135 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:10,560 Speaker 1: the Joe Mansion and Kirsten Cinema train. And I'm not 136 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 1: just throwing out bullshit theories, folks, but I have to 137 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 1: ask for people who have spent their lives inside of 138 00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 1: the government system, inside of the justice system. How is 139 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 1: it that you can be so so absolutely blind to 140 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 1: what is happening in front of you. How is it 141 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:32,680 Speaker 1: that you can decide that you want to preserve institutions 142 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 1: instead of the integrity of our democracy. How is it 143 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:40,200 Speaker 1: that we're the only ones woke f nation that is 144 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 1: seeing the urgency of this moment, and nobody that is 145 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:47,199 Speaker 1: actually at the lever of power is doing anything about it. 146 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 1: This is the conversation that I'm going to be happening 147 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 1: with our friend Ellie Mistole coming up next, And folks, 148 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 1: I want to know how you are feeling, and I'm 149 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 1: going to be asking this every single day. Tell me 150 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 1: what you are thinking about the moves or non moves 151 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 1: that Merritt Garland has been making. And is it time? 152 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,679 Speaker 1: Is it time that we say we need another ag 153 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 1: that this one is not it? You know, you would 154 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 1: think that after having been denied a hearing to become 155 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:20,320 Speaker 1: the next Supreme Court justice, that Merritt Garland would understand 156 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 1: what we are up against, that there would be some 157 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 1: fire in his belly, and yet there is none. Coming 158 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 1: up next is my conversation with our friend Ellie Misto. Folks, 159 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 1: I am always so excited when I get to welcome 160 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:40,440 Speaker 1: back my friend and yours, Ellie Misto, who is the 161 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 1: Justice correspondent for the nation and one of the most 162 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,080 Speaker 1: brilliant folks to go on television to tell us about 163 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 1: our impending doom as it pertains to, you know, the 164 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 1: fact that we don't have a Department of Justice that 165 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 1: is working on behalf of enforcing what is that justice? 166 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 1: An accountability and responsibility as it pertains to pretty much 167 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 1: any god damn thing. Ellie, you've been doing your rounds. 168 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:09,079 Speaker 1: You have been MSNBC batten people down on c SPAN. 169 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 1: I want to start with a article that came out 170 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 1: from The Rolling Stones, which was basically an investigative piece 171 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 1: covering two different participants and planners for the insurrection on 172 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 1: one six who are have identified not one, not two, 173 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 1: not three, but five different members of Congress that they 174 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: say that they were in contact with as they were 175 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:44,440 Speaker 1: planning the insurrection. Not only that, but also talked about 176 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:50,320 Speaker 1: the fact that Paul Gosser, Republican from Arizona, was dangling 177 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 1: around a pardon, a blanket pardon to those that were 178 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 1: planning and working on behalf of the Trump administration, as 179 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 1: well as said that they met with Mark Meadows. What 180 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 1: did you make of this Rolling Stones investigative article and 181 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:12,560 Speaker 1: where we are right now with regard to persecuting everyone 182 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 1: involved in trying to overthrow our government ten months ago. Yeah, Look, 183 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 1: my first reaction was I told you so. I mean, look, 184 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 1: that this was an inside job was obvious the entire time. 185 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 1: There are lots of different ways that we can skin 186 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 1: that pant. But when you look at not just the 187 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 1: permissiveness of the Capitol Police, but when you look at 188 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 1: how the rioters and insurrectionists knew exactly where we got. Remember, 189 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:43,960 Speaker 1: they ransacked the Parliamentarian's office. The Parliamentarian's office is one 190 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 1: of those places that you can't get to unless you've 191 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 1: been there already. That's not on anybody's you know, like 192 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 1: general map of Capitol Hill. They had to know where 193 00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 1: to go. They had to know what they were looking 194 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 1: for in the Parliamentarian's office. And that's just one example. 195 00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:00,880 Speaker 1: They're all these, they're all there. There are other examples, 196 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 1: you know. Jim Clyburn always bumps out to me where 197 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,439 Speaker 1: he talks about how they didn't go to his office, 198 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 1: which is kind of well signed and very close to 199 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 1: the entrance where they broke through. They didn't go to 200 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: his well signed office. They went to some back office 201 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:22,559 Speaker 1: place where Cliburne usually works out of Only other congress 202 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 1: people and their staffs would know that, no Rando insurrection. 203 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:29,880 Speaker 1: This would know that. So we already knew they had 204 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:33,000 Speaker 1: inside help, and we were already pretty sure who it was. 205 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 1: Paul Gosser has been one of their biggest defenders since 206 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 1: the attack. Neanderthal. Tara Green has been out front defending 207 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,559 Speaker 1: these people. We already know both Brooks told them to 208 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:50,040 Speaker 1: go to the Capitol to fight. Like, we already knew 209 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,559 Speaker 1: who these people were, and so it's not entirely surprising 210 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 1: that now we have evidence that we have the testimony 211 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 1: that they had help. Is disappointing to me is that 212 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:05,600 Speaker 1: this is coming out of the January sixth Commission, not 213 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 1: the Department of Justice, that is where we need these 214 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 1: investigations to be headed. Look, the January sixth Sunk Committee. 215 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 1: That's nice, that that's great. Congress has a role in oversight. 216 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:21,880 Speaker 1: They have a role in legislating, understanding what happened and 217 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 1: how it happened, and what laws we might need to 218 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 1: pass to make sure it doesn't happen again that is 219 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:32,360 Speaker 1: totally and completely within the powers of Congress. The Department 220 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:34,880 Speaker 1: of Justice is where we go to get justice. The 221 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 1: Department of Justice is where we go to get punishment. 222 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:40,040 Speaker 1: The Department of Justice is where we go to get 223 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 1: accountability for the crimes that these people committed. And we 224 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 1: don't see the Department of Justice taking a leading role 225 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 1: in punishing criminals and their co conspirators. You know, I 226 00:14:55,640 --> 00:15:00,360 Speaker 1: was one of those people. I would argue, probably you know, 227 00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:04,480 Speaker 1: around the first quarter of this administration, saying that we 228 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:08,200 Speaker 1: needed to give folks time, right, because they were coming 229 00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 1: into a burning building with one fire extinguisher and every 230 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 1: single room was on fire, and so we needed a 231 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 1: moment to give folks a beat in order to get 232 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 1: themselves together. It's been ten goddamn months, right, It's been 233 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 1: ten months, and what we have seen out of this 234 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 1: Justice Department is that Merritt Garland is an institutionalist that, 235 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: during his time of having his own Supreme Court seat denied, right, 236 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:40,120 Speaker 1: that he still believes somehow that you know, Republicans are 237 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 1: there to do their job, and you know that everybody 238 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 1: is above board and we just have to you know, 239 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 1: tighten a few screws in the Justice Department as opposed 240 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:51,400 Speaker 1: to Oh, I don't know get to the root of 241 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 1: the root of how the Justice Department was used as 242 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,800 Speaker 1: an arm in and extension of the Trump administration. So 243 00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 1: my question here is that we have all of these 244 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:05,480 Speaker 1: investigative journalists, right, we have, you know, this kind of 245 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 1: toothless one six commission. What if I mean, are we 246 00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 1: out of time? Like do you think that the Justice 247 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 1: Department is working behind the scenes and then we're going 248 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,120 Speaker 1: to come out with a parade of indictments that we've 249 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 1: been waiting for or is this just are we at 250 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 1: this point frankly hopeless and only can understand that maybe 251 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 1: I don't know, the DC District Attorney will decide to 252 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 1: investigate these members that were named in the Rolling Stones 253 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 1: article if the Department of Justice does not, you know, 254 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 1: I don't want to say we're out of time, because 255 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 1: there's always sign for dust. There's always sign for dust. 256 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 1: But it does not appear to me that the Justice 257 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 1: Department is working in secret. One of the ways that 258 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 1: I know that is if you look at what's happening 259 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:56,280 Speaker 1: with Steve Bannon. Steve Bannon was a poenied by the 260 00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 1: House Select Committee. He refused to answer this poenots because 261 00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:04,439 Speaker 1: Steve n is a lawless asshole, so he refused to 262 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 1: comply with those subpoenas. The House then held him in 263 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 1: content or sorry, voted to refer a criminal content, proceeding 264 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 1: back to the Justice Department, which now has the option 265 00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 1: of going forward and charging Steve Bannon. You know what 266 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 1: I didn't say in all that explanation about Steve Bannon. 267 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 1: I didn't say that Steve Bannon is in jail because 268 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:29,080 Speaker 1: they aint because he hasn't been subpoena by the Justice Department. Right, 269 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: So like if you if you defy a congressional subpoena, 270 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: this is the process. It goes to the vote, and 271 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 1: we have this and then we wait for it. If 272 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:40,400 Speaker 1: you defy a subpoena from the FBI, which is part 273 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:43,720 Speaker 1: of the Justice Department, you go to jail. You do 274 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 1: not pass go you do not collect two hundred dollars 275 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 1: from the Mercer family. You just go to jail. So, 276 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 1: if Steve Bannon had been subpoena, had been investigated by 277 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:56,440 Speaker 1: the FBI and was pulling these shenanigans, he'd already had 278 00:17:56,560 --> 00:18:00,199 Speaker 1: his gin soap at in jail, right, So That's what 279 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 1: we don't see. We don't see people like Steve Bannon 280 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:06,360 Speaker 1: being in jail. We don't see that people like Mark 281 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 1: Meadows have had documents or testimony requested for them from 282 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:12,359 Speaker 1: the FBI. If you want to find out who planned this, 283 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 1: and you're the FBI, there's no way to do it 284 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:21,840 Speaker 1: without talking to Bannon and Mark Meadows and Kayley and 285 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:24,199 Speaker 1: you know that whole team. There's no way to do 286 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:25,960 Speaker 1: it without talking to those people. There's no way to 287 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 1: do it without talking in a Donald Trump here, There's 288 00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:29,960 Speaker 1: no way to do it without talking to mob Brooks. 289 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 1: There's no way to do it without talking to Rudy Jillian. 290 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 1: And yet we see that these people have not been 291 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:37,560 Speaker 1: interviewed by the FBI, which tells me that the Justice 292 00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:40,919 Speaker 1: Department is doing nothing. And so is there going to 293 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 1: be some day later in the future where they decide 294 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:47,680 Speaker 1: to do something. That's still a possibility. But from where 295 00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:50,000 Speaker 1: I sit, I do not see the evidence of the 296 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 1: Justice Department doing anything to prosecute those who are powerful. Look, 297 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 1: they're willing to find the book it, you know, dude 298 00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 1: with the horse, all right, They're willing to go prosecute 299 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: and with cattle pride, I get like, but people have 300 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:04,639 Speaker 1: to understand this is really one of the one of 301 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:06,360 Speaker 1: the bigger things. This is one of the things that 302 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:11,920 Speaker 1: distinguishes good prosecutors from bad prosecutors. Right. Look, I don't 303 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 1: have any length of prosecutors. And let's be honest, right 304 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:17,919 Speaker 1: we look, there are good prosecutors. And one of the 305 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 1: things about good prosecutors is that they will go after 306 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:25,920 Speaker 1: the powerful people responsibul. One of the things about bad 307 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 1: prosecutors is that they only go after the low hanging fruit, 308 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:33,359 Speaker 1: the people who are easy to convict. Right, So it's like, 309 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 1: it's the difference between, you know, difference between prosecuting body 310 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:42,159 Speaker 1: from the wire versus prosecuting stringer Bell. Right, Bodi is 311 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:45,120 Speaker 1: a hopper, he has no power in the system. It's 312 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 1: easy to go find him and put him in jail. 313 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 1: Prosecuting the kingpins, that's hard, and that's what a good 314 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 1: prosecutor will do. They will do what is hard. They 315 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 1: will take the challenge of bringing accountabilities too. The powerful 316 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:02,919 Speaker 1: Merritt Garland has shown no desire to do that now 317 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 1: and not back when he was a prosecutor before people 318 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 1: used when when Garlin was announced, I was not a 319 00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:10,480 Speaker 1: fan but other people were and they were like, oh, look, 320 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 1: he's strong on terrorism. He went and got Timothy mcveay. 321 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 1: Timothy McVay, the Oklahoma Simy bomber, he planted the bomb. 322 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,880 Speaker 1: That's that's easy. That's I mean, it's not. I don't 323 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 1: want to say it's easy in a flippant way, but 324 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:26,880 Speaker 1: from a prosecutorial perspective, getting the person who did the 325 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:30,920 Speaker 1: thing is easy. Getting the person who planned the thing, 326 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 1: getting the co conspiras, getting the finance seer, that's hard. 327 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:39,440 Speaker 1: And that's not something that we've seen Garland. Do you know. 328 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 1: Here's my problem, Ellie, is that one. I think first 329 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:48,439 Speaker 1: of all, when Biden decided to choose Merritt Garland, I 330 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:51,359 Speaker 1: thought that it was because I'm not a person like 331 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 1: yourself who is inside of the justice system and knows 332 00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 1: these good people. From that I just thought that basically, 333 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:02,200 Speaker 1: if you had been snubbed for three hundred and sixty 334 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 1: five days in getting a hearing, then maybe you would have, 335 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 1: you know, a bone to pick with the party that 336 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 1: denied you a lifetime appointment on the Supreme Court. That 337 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 1: being said, this toothlessness from this Department of Justice, tell 338 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:25,760 Speaker 1: us how explain how dangerous. This non move move by 339 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:29,439 Speaker 1: the Justice Department to not take action against these people 340 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:33,159 Speaker 1: is right now, not politically right, but in the sheer 341 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:38,320 Speaker 1: like understanding that our democracy is not hanging on by 342 00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 1: a thread like our democracy. In my humble opinion, people 343 00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:43,959 Speaker 1: listen to wokaf on a regular fucking basis it you 344 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 1: need to pull the plug. I don't believe that there 345 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:50,160 Speaker 1: is a resuscitation here without aggressive action, and we see 346 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 1: no one that is actually aggressively taking any action of Note, 347 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 1: you thought that that girl was going to come in 348 00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 1: for revenge. You didn't realize he was all about reconciliation, 349 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 1: right Like, that's like Garland doesn't want that soil doesn't 350 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 1: have that heat. The problem, and if I may put 351 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:08,399 Speaker 1: on my Sarah Kensan or hat, the problem is that 352 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:13,200 Speaker 1: when you try a coup and it failed and nothing 353 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 1: happens to you, you try again. That's about hyperbole, hyperberly, 354 00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:23,480 Speaker 1: that is history. The history of failed coups is when 355 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:27,360 Speaker 1: the people who planned it don't get punished. They try 356 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 1: and try and try until they succeed overthrowing the government. 357 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:35,760 Speaker 1: So the stakes are no less than that. The violet 358 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 1: over the throw of our government was planned and attempted 359 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:43,360 Speaker 1: it failed the first time. Either the people who attempted 360 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 1: it and failed get punished for that, get dissuaded from 361 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:53,440 Speaker 1: trying that again, or they try it again and maybe 362 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 1: next time it'll work, and they keep trying until it works. 363 00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:00,159 Speaker 1: That's that's where we are. And the Garland and the 364 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:04,200 Speaker 1: Fundant administration doesn't seem to understand that, doesn't seem to 365 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 1: get that. You know, my my, I've got family, you know, 366 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 1: from all the world. The big part of my ancestry 367 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 1: goes back to goes back to Haiti, a country that 368 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 1: often struggles with democracy. And one of the things that 369 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:21,399 Speaker 1: you know, my my parents and my uncle have always 370 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,359 Speaker 1: told me is that one of the worst things about 371 00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 1: America is that it's never lost its democracy, so it 372 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 1: has no idea how to defend it because it doesn't 373 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:34,440 Speaker 1: think it needs defending. You know, all these other advanced, 374 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:38,480 Speaker 1: you know, Western style democracies, they've gone through a period 375 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,199 Speaker 1: where they ain't got no democracy. They've gone through a 376 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,439 Speaker 1: period where where democracy was taken away from them. You know, 377 00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:47,399 Speaker 1: in England, they were bolted against the king and chopped 378 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:50,160 Speaker 1: off Charles's head and you know, sixteen whatever, and then 379 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,680 Speaker 1: the king came back and lost it, you know, and 380 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,400 Speaker 1: it took them another couple hundred years to really get 381 00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:58,879 Speaker 1: rid of their kings said that they're gotten rid of it. 382 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:01,120 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm gonna go on and say they've gotten 383 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:04,880 Speaker 1: rid of it. You know, no offense to Queen Elizabeth Um, 384 00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:08,200 Speaker 1: you know, but that's that happened in England, That's happened 385 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 1: in you know, countries in the West Indies, that's happened 386 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 1: in countries in South America. They've had it, they've lost it, 387 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:15,680 Speaker 1: They've had to go get it back. That's the SI 388 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:20,199 Speaker 1: fans in America. We've never lost it, and so we 389 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:23,879 Speaker 1: have this unearned belief that we can't lose it. And 390 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 1: so right now when it is being threatened, we are 391 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 1: not fighting for it, we are not defending it. We 392 00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 1: have no clue how and you know, that's really troubling 393 00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:35,960 Speaker 1: if you want to keep it. You know, one of 394 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:40,440 Speaker 1: the prevailing statements that is being made both by Democrats 395 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: and by Republicans, most notably Condoleeza Rice last week, which 396 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:49,119 Speaker 1: was we need to just move on. The American people 397 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:53,280 Speaker 1: don't care about one six, they care about gas prices. 398 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:55,600 Speaker 1: They care about the fact that they are going to 399 00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:58,480 Speaker 1: have to pay more money for goods and services because 400 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 1: of a quote unquote labor shortage, which isn't a labor shortage, 401 00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:04,359 Speaker 1: it's actually a shortage of employers wanting to pay people 402 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:08,439 Speaker 1: what they are fucking worth. But regardless of that, what 403 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:12,720 Speaker 1: is your response to politicians who are and I believe 404 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:16,040 Speaker 1: that this is also the feeling of the Biden administration. 405 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 1: There were other attorney general US attorney general that you 406 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:23,600 Speaker 1: could have chosen, right, that had teeth and so, but 407 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,479 Speaker 1: you put up this guy, and you put you You 408 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 1: don't do a press talk or press walk with regard 409 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,399 Speaker 1: to why it's important that we do not turn the 410 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:36,679 Speaker 1: page on this. So what do you think and what 411 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 1: do you say to those that are like, oh, no, no, no, 412 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 1: we just need to move on. It's been ten months. 413 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:45,439 Speaker 1: We just need to move on. So I break them 414 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:49,080 Speaker 1: up into two categories. Category A. If everybody who says 415 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 1: we need to move on, who were a Republican and 416 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 1: there at the time of Ben got when they had 417 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 1: like eighteen billion hearings and hours of textimony on the 418 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 1: people like Condoleeza Rice, Right, So I take all those 419 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:06,359 Speaker 1: people in column A and I say all y'all can 420 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 1: shut the fuck up, can just get out of my 421 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:14,639 Speaker 1: damn face, because y'all do some hypocrites like that's that's 422 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 1: just that's just, that's just what it is. Condoleeza Rice 423 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:22,439 Speaker 1: has absolutely no length to stand on. When she was 424 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 1: one of the promoters of having more Bendadi hearing to 425 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:28,359 Speaker 1: say that now it has time to move on for 426 00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:32,440 Speaker 1: an actual attack on the capitally United States, they can 427 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 1: take all the seats. Then you've got the other people 428 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,119 Speaker 1: who are just like, well, we should move on because 429 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 1: they personally are bored with it, right why they personally 430 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:45,920 Speaker 1: don't seem to worry about losing our democracy. They personally 431 00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:48,440 Speaker 1: know people to care about insurrection. And for those people, 432 00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:49,959 Speaker 1: I go back to what I already said that this 433 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 1: is that you cannot move forward until you have accountability 434 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 1: for the past, because if you don't have this accountability, 435 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:58,160 Speaker 1: then it's just gonna come back, right, And people don't 436 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:01,320 Speaker 1: always you know, read history or understand and it's lessons. 437 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:04,720 Speaker 1: But if you read any history and understand any lesson 438 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:08,240 Speaker 1: is that this is how coos work. If you don't, 439 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 1: if you don't punish the people do it, they always 440 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 1: come back. So whether that that's boring to you is 441 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:17,960 Speaker 1: kind of besides the point. It's what needs to happen 442 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:22,160 Speaker 1: for our democracy to continue going forward and worry about 443 00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 1: your gas prices and your infrastructure bills and whatever. Right, 444 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:27,040 Speaker 1: So it's it's, it's it's Those are the two sides 445 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:33,160 Speaker 1: of it. Why Biden isn't the one leading that charge 446 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 1: is beyond me because it's his government they try to overthrow. 447 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 1: And I don't understand why that's why that's something he 448 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 1: doesn't want to talk about every single day, Like if 449 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 1: it was me, ivery, if it were me, if anyol, 450 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,159 Speaker 1: there was some reasons why it's not me, but it 451 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 1: was right. I have a purpo a week, Like every Friday, 452 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 1: I walk one of these dudes out everybody. Here's an 453 00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 1: idiot person who tried to overthrow my government. He's going 454 00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:08,600 Speaker 1: to jail for six years. Next week, here's another idiot 455 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 1: person tried to overthrow my government. He's going to jail 456 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:13,399 Speaker 1: for three months because all he did was poop on 457 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 1: the floor. Next like I would, I would have a 458 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 1: god damn week so that the public never forgets what 459 00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 1: they did. Do you know why this is? I don't 460 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:26,399 Speaker 1: a little history lesson, Sorry to be nerdy here. Do 461 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:29,040 Speaker 1: you know why the Republican Party is their mascot as 462 00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 1: an elephant? During the Civil War. Before the Civil War, 463 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 1: the Republicans were the pro abolition party to there was one, 464 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:41,000 Speaker 1: there were the pro union Party. They were the anti 465 00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 1: slavery party right. It was the Democrat who were pro 466 00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 1: slavery right, and so then there was a whole Civil War, 467 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:50,720 Speaker 1: and then four years after the Republicans were always like, remember, 468 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 1: don't vote for the Democrats. They started the goddamn war. 469 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:57,160 Speaker 1: And so the Republicans got the Moniker elephant. It was 470 00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 1: a It was a it was a slam because they 471 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:03,360 Speaker 1: never forgot the Civil War. They would never let Democrats 472 00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:06,600 Speaker 1: off the hook for the Civil War. The Republican never 473 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 1: forgot the Civil War. The Democrats are already trying to 474 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:13,680 Speaker 1: forget the insurrection. There are already two Democrats trying to 475 00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:17,480 Speaker 1: make it, trying to forget the insurrections. I would never forget. 476 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 1: I would have that seared into the consciousness of every voter. 477 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 1: These people try to overthrow the government. That is it 478 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 1: for me today, Folks on woke after daily as always 479 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:40,520 Speaker 1: power to the people and to all the people. Power, 480 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 1: get woke and stay woke as fuck,
