WEBVTT - Van Hollen Cornered, Hasan Piker Embraced-Dems Can’t Escape Their DSA Problem 0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:04.240 Democrats right now, they're in a really awkward spot. They're 0:00:04.240 --> 0:00:08.039 trying to figure out exactly how to deal with the 0:00:08.119 --> 0:00:13.280 Democratic Socialists. Van Holland went on Meet the Depressed and 0:00:13.400 --> 0:00:16.080 was asked about what do you do is the Democratic 0:00:16.160 --> 0:00:21.079 Party completely dead? As a Democratic Socialist running the show? 0:00:21.400 --> 0:00:24.680 How do you handle with the extremism of the Democratic Party? 0:00:25.120 --> 0:00:28.040 And here's what Van Holland, one of the Democratic leaders 0:00:28.080 --> 0:00:28.600 had to say. 0:00:28.880 --> 0:00:31.640 Delve a little deeper into this debate that you referenced 0:00:31.680 --> 0:00:36.200 inside the Democratic Party. Florida Congressman Jared Moskowitz fended off 0:00:36.320 --> 0:00:39.800 a DSA backed challenger in his district, and he's taking 0:00:39.840 --> 0:00:43.640 a very different view of Democratic Socialists of America. Here's 0:00:43.680 --> 0:00:47.720 what he said about DSA members likely to join Congress 0:00:47.760 --> 0:00:51.479 next year. He writes, quote, they're anti American at their core. 0:00:51.680 --> 0:00:54.200 People who have said anti American things and have said 0:00:54.240 --> 0:00:58.080 things that are pro Russia and pro China. Should they 0:00:58.200 --> 0:01:01.120 really get a security clear And he asked, do you 0:01:01.200 --> 0:01:04.880 think the Democratic Socialists have a place in the Democratic Party? 0:01:04.920 --> 0:01:07.040 Senator, Yes, they do. 0:01:07.120 --> 0:01:10.440 As part of the debate and in this upcoming election, 0:01:11.240 --> 0:01:14.920 candidates can be very clear about where they strongly disagree 0:01:14.920 --> 0:01:18.840 with the DSA, which is probably on most issues, but 0:01:18.920 --> 0:01:20.959 they can also talk about. 0:01:20.720 --> 0:01:21.640 Their own plans. 0:01:21.680 --> 0:01:24.320 So you know, I'm not afraid of debate. I think 0:01:24.360 --> 0:01:26.959 that those in the Democratic Party who are afraid of 0:01:27.000 --> 0:01:32.120 a healthy debate are missing the point because voters, including 0:01:32.160 --> 0:01:35.680 Democratic voters, they don't want to simply return to the 0:01:35.680 --> 0:01:38.520 pre Trump status quo. They want Democrats who are going 0:01:38.560 --> 0:01:41.600 to stand for something. And I can strongly disagree with 0:01:41.680 --> 0:01:44.240 one set of Democrats, but I think that debate is healthy. 0:01:44.319 --> 0:01:46.480 Well, okay, talking about the debate, let's talk about the 0:01:46.520 --> 0:01:50.560 DSA platform. It calls for, in part, replacing the president 0:01:50.560 --> 0:01:54.120 and Supreme Court with an executive and judiciary chosen by 0:01:54.680 --> 0:01:55.520 and subordinate. 0:01:56.600 --> 0:01:58.520 I'm just going to stop there. We've gone through the 0:01:58.560 --> 0:02:02.440 Democratic platform. Democrats, there's this platform. You notice what Van 0:02:02.480 --> 0:02:04.720 Holland tried to do there. Them voters don't want to 0:02:04.760 --> 0:02:06.600 simply return to pre Trump's s tas quote. 0:02:06.880 --> 0:02:08.280 We're just trying to figure this out. 0:02:08.360 --> 0:02:12.480 It's gonna be fine, Everything's okay, kumbaiaism, right, all right, 0:02:12.560 --> 0:02:15.480 So then let's see what happens when he's pressed on 0:02:15.520 --> 0:02:19.799 this in a different way. And notice how again they 0:02:19.800 --> 0:02:20.799 are terrified. 0:02:21.160 --> 0:02:24.600 It's a platform it calls for, in part, replacing the 0:02:24.639 --> 0:02:28.280 President and Supreme Court with an executive and judiciary chosen 0:02:28.400 --> 0:02:33.520 by and subordinate to Congress, and quote, to abolish the 0:02:33.560 --> 0:02:36.800 Senate the chamber of course in which you serve. Do 0:02:36.880 --> 0:02:38.360 those ideas go too far for you? 0:02:38.880 --> 0:02:41.760 Yes? Of course they do for me. And I think 0:02:41.760 --> 0:02:44.360 a lot of the folks who are running, regardless of 0:02:44.360 --> 0:02:48.320 where they are on the Democratic spectrum, have rejected those ideas. 0:02:49.240 --> 0:02:52.320 And so I think when you look at the Democratic 0:02:52.360 --> 0:02:54.919 Party right now, you're looking at a party that again 0:02:55.040 --> 0:02:58.600 is incredibly united when it comes to making sure we're 0:02:58.600 --> 0:03:01.800 out there standing up for working people. We need to 0:03:01.880 --> 0:03:05.160 end this war in Iran, which is driving up prices. 0:03:05.680 --> 0:03:09.079 And the reason that Senator Scott didn't want to talk 0:03:09.080 --> 0:03:12.480 about this election and the issues and didn't want to 0:03:12.480 --> 0:03:15.720 talk about Trump's record is because you have a rubber 0:03:15.760 --> 0:03:22.000 stamp Republican Senate and rubber stamp Republican candidates who simply 0:03:22.040 --> 0:03:23.600 want to do Donald Trump's. 0:03:23.280 --> 0:03:26.480 Bidding and very quickly. Would you accept an endorsement by 0:03:26.480 --> 0:03:26.960 the DSA. 0:03:27.800 --> 0:03:28.480 I would not. 0:03:29.360 --> 0:03:31.520 I'm not going to sort of look into old. 0:03:32.120 --> 0:03:37.000 I love there. Would you endorse? Would you accept an endorsement. 0:03:36.960 --> 0:03:42.040 They say, the Democrats of America believe that Democrat Van 0:03:42.080 --> 0:03:45.040 Hollin and the Senate should not have his job. They 0:03:45.120 --> 0:03:47.680 want to abolish the Senate. Like, I don't know what 0:03:47.880 --> 0:03:51.240 part of that he doesn't understand. But you also notice 0:03:51.240 --> 0:03:53.400 there when he's asked about what they believe in, he 0:03:53.480 --> 0:03:55.800 tries to say, well, the reason why they're active right 0:03:55.840 --> 0:04:00.160 now is because the Republicans are just so bad, and 0:04:00.440 --> 0:04:06.920 because the Republicans are just so bad, you know, we 0:04:07.760 --> 0:04:13.960 just know that that's just what it is. That's why 0:04:14.000 --> 0:04:18.320 this is happening. And you're like, what are you talking about? Like, seriously, 0:04:18.640 --> 0:04:25.080 what are you even talking about? This is the Democratic Party. 0:04:24.440 --> 0:04:28.120 They I go back to what I said about Barack Obama. 0:04:28.279 --> 0:04:35.880 Barack Obama spoon fed the Democratic Party. Barack Obama bottle 0:04:35.920 --> 0:04:40.240 fed the Democratic socials of America. They helped create them, 0:04:40.760 --> 0:04:43.920 they have backed them, and the Democratic Party. I will 0:04:43.960 --> 0:04:48.200 say it over and over again, the Democratic Party is 0:04:49.200 --> 0:04:57.200 one thousand percent supporting these Democratic socialist candidates with their money. 0:04:57.360 --> 0:05:00.440 Anyone that says they're not, they're lying to you. They 0:05:00.480 --> 0:05:03.479 are spending their cash. They are spending their cash in 0:05:03.520 --> 0:05:06.960 a way that is massive. They are spending their cash 0:05:07.000 --> 0:05:10.680 in a way that is I mean, it's truly incredible 0:05:11.680 --> 0:05:15.800 how much money they're giving to these socialist candidates. And 0:05:15.880 --> 0:05:18.680 so anyone that sits there and the Democratic Party is like, 0:05:18.680 --> 0:05:20.800 oh no, like, this isn't really us, this is not 0:05:20.839 --> 0:05:21.800 what we really believe in. 0:05:22.400 --> 0:05:25.760 Like, they're lying to you, folks. They're lying to you 0:05:25.920 --> 0:05:30.000 on a level that is diabolical. 0:05:30.560 --> 0:05:32.839 They're lying to you at a level that you sit 0:05:32.880 --> 0:05:34.840 there and you should be laughing in their face, like 0:05:34.839 --> 0:05:40.000 do you actually expect me to believe what you're even saying? 0:05:40.080 --> 0:05:40.520 Right now? 0:05:41.160 --> 0:05:44.960 The Democratic Party is controlled by these individuals. Now, I 0:05:45.000 --> 0:05:46.520 want to take a quick moment and I want to 0:05:46.560 --> 0:05:48.960 talk to you about right now what you can do 0:05:49.040 --> 0:05:52.479 to help pray for the people of Israel. Anti Semitism 0:05:52.520 --> 0:05:55.599 is continuing to rise around the world every day and 0:05:55.720 --> 0:05:58.599 Jewish people continuing to pay the price from growing threats 0:05:58.640 --> 0:06:02.800 against Jewish communities to acts of violence, harassment, intimidation. Many 0:06:02.880 --> 0:06:07.880 Jewish families are living with fear simply because they're Jewish synagogue, 0:06:07.920 --> 0:06:12.000 schools and community centers. They continue strengthening security as hatred 0:06:12.040 --> 0:06:15.640 spreads far beyond the headlines, and that's why the international 0:06:15.640 --> 0:06:18.760 Fellowship of Christians and Jews is working every day in 0:06:19.040 --> 0:06:24.280 Israel and around the world, and they're providing security, emergency assistance, 0:06:24.400 --> 0:06:28.680 food and critical care for vulnerable Jewish communities. Now for 0:06:28.720 --> 0:06:32.320 more than thirty years, the Fellowship is stood alongside the 0:06:32.360 --> 0:06:36.159 Jewish people, delivering practical support when it is needed the most. 0:06:36.760 --> 0:06:40.480 Hatred continues to spread, but compassion and action can make 0:06:40.520 --> 0:06:43.200 a huge difference. So I want you to join the 0:06:43.240 --> 0:06:46.560 International Fellowship of Christians and Jews and me in praying 0:06:47.120 --> 0:06:50.000 simply for the safety of the Jewish community, praying for 0:06:50.080 --> 0:06:53.320 peace in Israel, and for an end to anti Semitism. 0:06:53.720 --> 0:06:56.919 Together we can remind God's people that they are not alone. 0:06:57.400 --> 0:06:59.560 So if you want to know what the prayer requests 0:06:59.600 --> 0:07:02.359 are now that are needed the most, go and visit 0:07:02.480 --> 0:07:08.919 PRAYIFCJ dot org. That's prey I FCJ dot org. Pray 0:07:09.600 --> 0:07:11.440 I f CJ dot org. 0:07:12.200 --> 0:07:13.160 Look at Rokana. 0:07:13.640 --> 0:07:17.680 Rokana claims Democrats stitching Hassan Piker would show weakness, so 0:07:17.800 --> 0:07:21.160 therefore it is absurd that they get rid of one 0:07:21.200 --> 0:07:24.360 of the most radicals that is actually out there. I 0:07:24.960 --> 0:07:29.160 want you to hear another Democrat try to defend what 0:07:29.240 --> 0:07:33.320 I would refer to as the indefensible. Okay, Like, there's 0:07:33.360 --> 0:07:37.480 no way that you can defend what is being said 0:07:37.520 --> 0:07:41.720 now what Hassan Piker has said, and I want you 0:07:41.760 --> 0:07:43.200 to hear Rokana, try to do that. 0:07:43.240 --> 0:07:43.840 Take a listen. 0:07:44.240 --> 0:07:48.440 Is the right platform for the nation to overcome some 0:07:48.560 --> 0:07:51.000 of the divides and anger and exclusion. 0:07:51.360 --> 0:07:53.680 You stuck your neck out for progressives like a Bill say, 0:07:53.800 --> 0:07:57.440 you also supported Platner before the allegations came out. You've 0:07:57.440 --> 0:08:00.680 also stuck your nckout for Hassan Piker. And you've seen 0:08:00.800 --> 0:08:03.000 that Hassan Piker is now being attacked twenty four to 0:08:03.040 --> 0:08:07.320 seven on Fox. Here's Hailey Stevens going on Fox and saying, well, 0:08:07.520 --> 0:08:09.640 the first thing you know how el say it could 0:08:09.680 --> 0:08:12.640 moderate to voters is to get rid of the Piker affiliation. 0:08:12.760 --> 0:08:17.920 You've seen near attendant retweet Laura Lumer's attack on Hassan Piker. 0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:22.240 Your comment on Hassan Piker. What should the Democrats do 0:08:22.320 --> 0:08:25.240 with them? Should they abandon him? Do you renounce your 0:08:25.280 --> 0:08:28.080 support of him? You tell me, rog give it to 0:08:28.120 --> 0:08:28.520 me straight. 0:08:29.080 --> 0:08:29.840 It's absurd. 0:08:30.040 --> 0:08:32.280 I mean, these are the same people who were at 0:08:32.280 --> 0:08:36.880 one point criticizing Democrats for going on Joe Rogan. I mean, 0:08:36.880 --> 0:08:39.400 remember when Bertie went on Joe Rogan. The same the 0:08:39.400 --> 0:08:41.400 people who said, oh, you can't go on Joe Rogan. 0:08:41.559 --> 0:08:43.560 These are the same folks who criticized me when I 0:08:43.600 --> 0:08:46.120 got went on Ben Shapiro. Should I not go on 0:08:46.160 --> 0:08:50.000 Ben Shapiro's podcast because I disagree with him? We had 0:08:50.000 --> 0:08:53.000 in a horrle argument on the minimum wage. Just because 0:08:53.000 --> 0:08:58.840 someone is engaging with Hassan Piker, who has a strong 0:08:58.920 --> 0:09:02.439 viewpoints on these issues, doesn't mean that you're endorsing every 0:09:02.440 --> 0:09:06.240 single one of Hassan Piker's positions. And if you're going 0:09:06.280 --> 0:09:11.960 to argue that we should exclude a left wing commentators, 0:09:12.679 --> 0:09:15.480 and frankly, some of these people were arguing that we 0:09:15.480 --> 0:09:18.760 should be canceling and excluding right wing commentators, you're left 0:09:18.800 --> 0:09:22.440 with a party that is basically a status quo party. 0:09:22.800 --> 0:09:26.440 That's why we lost to elections. My view has been engagement, 0:09:26.600 --> 0:09:29.520 engagement with people on the right, people on the left, 0:09:29.720 --> 0:09:32.120 people I disagree with. I say the same things. Look, 0:09:32.120 --> 0:09:35.679 I've gone to Hassan Piker and gotten criticized because let 0:09:35.720 --> 0:09:36.120 me just. 0:09:36.040 --> 0:09:38.680 Pause here, let me give you the top thing that 0:09:38.720 --> 0:09:42.679 Hassan Piker said that Rokhana is falling all over himself 0:09:42.720 --> 0:09:46.679 to defend Hassan Piker said that America deserved. 0:09:46.240 --> 0:09:47.000 A nine to eleven. 0:09:47.120 --> 0:09:49.720 Dude, he was in a debate and he said America 0:09:49.800 --> 0:09:53.040 deserves nine eleven. He wouldn't even further, saying America had 0:09:53.120 --> 0:09:58.600 essentially brought the attack upon ourselves. America deserved nine eleven. 0:09:58.400 --> 0:10:01.120 And this is who ro Hanna is out there falling 0:10:01.160 --> 0:10:03.120 all over going, well, I like him? I mean why 0:10:03.120 --> 0:10:04.800 would I Why would I say that I don't like him? 0:10:04.800 --> 0:10:06.040 Why would I say anything negative? 0:10:06.480 --> 0:10:08.360 Like I like him? Why would I not like him? 0:10:08.800 --> 0:10:11.600 This is who they are, This is how extreme they become. 0:10:13.320 --> 0:10:16.040 I go back to what I mentioned a moment ago 0:10:16.040 --> 0:10:19.640 about how it's Sam Piker. Not only did this dude 0:10:20.080 --> 0:10:23.200 say that America deserved one eleven, but years later, while 0:10:23.240 --> 0:10:27.800 discussing Saudi Arabia nuclear power, Hassan Piker joked, nine to 0:10:27.800 --> 0:10:31.240 eleven two is going to be so sick, quote unquote, 0:10:31.840 --> 0:10:33.960 and then he joked about giving Saudi Arabia a nuclear 0:10:34.000 --> 0:10:36.760 weapons so they could carry out nine to eleven two 0:10:36.800 --> 0:10:41.360 point zero. Then there's what he said about Israel and Hamas. 0:10:41.960 --> 0:10:45.959 Piker wrote that Hamas is a thousand times better than Israel. 0:10:46.040 --> 0:10:48.719 So I guess he's for the extermination of all the Jews, right, 0:10:48.720 --> 0:10:52.920 because that would match up with what democratic Socialism America believe. 0:10:53.720 --> 0:10:56.240 He was confronted about that statement on Pods of American 0:10:56.320 --> 0:10:58.480 twenty twenty six and what he say. He didn't retweet. 0:10:58.480 --> 0:11:01.800 He said, quote, I stand by that. He then explained 0:11:01.840 --> 0:11:04.560 his position by saying he views the choice as one 0:11:04.600 --> 0:11:07.679 between two evils. So, now Israel is evil, just as 0:11:07.679 --> 0:11:10.240 evil he's as a terrorist organization that kills innocent people 0:11:10.280 --> 0:11:15.839 and rapes little children and takes people hostage and then 0:11:16.000 --> 0:11:19.120 tortures them and then makes them dig their own graves 0:11:19.160 --> 0:11:20.720 and then rapes them and then kills them. Right, So 0:11:20.760 --> 0:11:22.560 he's saying Israel is the same as as they are, 0:11:22.720 --> 0:11:28.760 which is anti Semitism on steroids. He said, I got 0:11:28.760 --> 0:11:30.800 to pick between the two evils and would choose him 0:11:30.800 --> 0:11:34.640 Moss over the Israeli government quote unquote. Now think about 0:11:34.679 --> 0:11:38.360 what we're talking about here. This isn't some anonymous account 0:11:38.440 --> 0:11:42.000 with fourteen followers, okay, sitting his basement. This is one 0:11:42.000 --> 0:11:46.600 of the most influential political voices in the left, certainly 0:11:46.600 --> 0:11:51.280 on the Internet, and Democrats are dying to campaign with him. 0:11:52.280 --> 0:11:56.360 And then there's his comments surrounding the sexual violence of 0:11:56.400 --> 0:11:59.920 October seventh. Piker said, quote, it doesn't matter if rape 0:12:00.040 --> 0:12:03.400 app in October the seventh, It doesn't change the dynamic 0:12:03.520 --> 0:12:07.120 for me. That is how evil Hassan Piker is. 0:12:07.200 --> 0:12:07.320 Now. 0:12:07.360 --> 0:12:09.880 Piker says the clips have been badly quote misrepresented. How 0:12:09.920 --> 0:12:12.320 do you misrepresent the quote? It doesn't matter if rape 0:12:12.360 --> 0:12:15.319 happened on October the seventh, It doesn't change the dynamic 0:12:15.400 --> 0:12:15.640 for me. 0:12:15.720 --> 0:12:17.800 I just want to know. Now. 0:12:17.840 --> 0:12:21.040 His explanation is that he was actually arguing with someone 0:12:21.200 --> 0:12:24.800 questioning whether sexual violence occurred, and his point was that 0:12:24.840 --> 0:12:28.360 Hamas atroctites could not justify what he regards as Israel's 0:12:28.400 --> 0:12:31.680 subsequent actions in Gaza. So doesn't matter how bad the 0:12:31.760 --> 0:12:35.360 terrorists are, even if they're sexually assaulting people, it doesn't 0:12:35.440 --> 0:12:38.079 change the dynamic for him. Now his rhetoric again, it 0:12:38.120 --> 0:12:41.280 doesn't stop there. When discussing Hesbela, Piker said, I don't 0:12:41.320 --> 0:12:44.400 have an issue with them, So this is another terrorist organization, Like, yeah, 0:12:44.480 --> 0:12:45.640 totally fine when them works for me. 0:12:45.920 --> 0:12:46.840 He described hes. 0:12:46.760 --> 0:12:49.560 Blah as quote a resistance group, not a terrorist group, 0:12:49.760 --> 0:12:52.360 and he argued that if hes Blah qualifies the terrorist 0:12:52.440 --> 0:12:56.160 organization in America is the world's leading terrorist organization. Okay, 0:12:56.200 --> 0:13:00.679 so now America is a terrorist organization. 0:13:01.040 --> 0:13:02.520 That is what a som biker says. 0:13:02.640 --> 0:13:05.040 And again this is ro Kona saying, no, no, I 0:13:05.040 --> 0:13:07.200 a problem with the guy, like, you know, it's fine, 0:13:07.200 --> 0:13:10.560 we'll campaign together whatever. Let me go back to another 0:13:10.600 --> 0:13:15.200 Democrat and I want to play for you, Senator Van Holland. 0:13:15.240 --> 0:13:17.520 He's a Democrat. He was on Meet the Press. 0:13:18.240 --> 0:13:21.520 On dsays abolish the Senate, right, so he's being asked 0:13:21.559 --> 0:13:24.320 by them, Hey, like you know the DSA wants to 0:13:24.360 --> 0:13:27.840 abolish the Senate, that would be you. And listen to 0:13:27.880 --> 0:13:32.079 how he will not stand up to the DSA because 0:13:32.080 --> 0:13:34.160 he's so afraid of them that he has to justify 0:13:34.200 --> 0:13:36.040 what they're saying while saying, well, of course, I don't 0:13:36.040 --> 0:13:38.360 want to lose my job. I mean this is this 0:13:38.480 --> 0:13:41.079 man has no spine bait. 0:13:41.200 --> 0:13:44.640 Let's talk about the DSA platform. It calls for, in part, 0:13:45.000 --> 0:13:48.000 replacing the President and Supreme Court with an executive and 0:13:48.120 --> 0:13:53.360 judiciary chosen by and subordinate to Congress, and quote to 0:13:53.559 --> 0:13:57.439 abolish the Senate the chamber of course in which you serve. 0:13:57.720 --> 0:14:00.320 Do those ideas go too far for you, Yes, of. 0:14:00.320 --> 0:14:01.400 Course they do for me. 0:14:02.200 --> 0:14:04.360 And I think a lot of the folks who are running, 0:14:04.720 --> 0:14:07.760 regardless of where they are on the Democratic spectrum, have 0:14:07.960 --> 0:14:12.520 rejected those ideas. And so I think when you look 0:14:12.520 --> 0:14:15.280 at the Democratic Party right now, you're looking at a 0:14:15.280 --> 0:14:18.480 party that, again is incredibly united when it comes to 0:14:18.880 --> 0:14:21.840 making sure we're out there standing up for working people. 0:14:22.360 --> 0:14:24.920 We need to end this war in Iran, which is 0:14:25.000 --> 0:14:26.160 driving up prices. 0:14:26.680 --> 0:14:29.320 And the reason that Center. 0:14:29.160 --> 0:14:32.160 Scott didn't want to talk about this election and the 0:14:32.240 --> 0:14:35.480 issues and didn't want to talk about Trump's record is 0:14:35.520 --> 0:14:39.480 because you have a rubber stamp Republican Senate and rubber 0:14:39.520 --> 0:14:44.680 stamp Republican candidates who simply want to do Donald Trump's. 0:14:44.280 --> 0:14:47.520 Bidding and very quickly, would you accept an endorsement by 0:14:47.520 --> 0:14:48.000 the DSA. 0:14:48.800 --> 0:14:51.880 I would not. I'm not going to sort of look 0:14:51.920 --> 0:14:52.320 into old. 0:14:53.080 --> 0:14:55.000 This is how weak the Democrats are. 0:14:56.040 --> 0:15:00.640 They cannot stand up even to a guy who is 0:15:00.680 --> 0:15:04.160 out there saying America deserves nine to eleven. Hassan Piker 0:15:04.200 --> 0:15:07.280 is joking about nine to eleven two point zero. A 0:15:07.320 --> 0:15:10.000 guy who says to Hamas a thousand times better than Israel. 0:15:10.040 --> 0:15:12.840 A guy that says I don't have a issue with Hesblaw, 0:15:13.200 --> 0:15:15.840 a guy who even mocked an American veteran who lost 0:15:15.840 --> 0:15:20.480 his eye fighting overseas. So the important political question isn't 0:15:20.480 --> 0:15:24.720 whether hasan Piker and the Democratic Party have a right 0:15:24.760 --> 0:15:27.680 to say these things they do. That's why I love 0:15:27.720 --> 0:15:31.680 free speech. The question is why is a man that's 0:15:31.880 --> 0:15:36.000 this politically influential in the Democratic Party, who has a 0:15:36.040 --> 0:15:41.200 record that's extreme as his is, becomes so important to 0:15:41.360 --> 0:15:46.239 major Democratic politicians and candidates that they're willing to associate 0:15:46.280 --> 0:15:51.240 themselves with this extremist on stage and then defend and 0:15:51.440 --> 0:15:54.480 protect him as a political leader. 0:15:55.280 --> 0:15:57.640 I'm going to answer that question. It's because the. 0:15:57.560 --> 0:16:01.760 Democratic Party is dead. Democratic Socialists are running it, the 0:16:01.840 --> 0:16:06.960 Marxists are running it. You have to answer the question 0:16:07.600 --> 0:16:10.760 based on what they're doing, not what they're saying, even 0:16:10.760 --> 0:16:13.480 when they try to act like, oh, we're not the same, 0:16:13.600 --> 0:16:16.120 Oh we're a little bit different. Oh well, I mean, 0:16:16.520 --> 0:16:19.080 you know, it's just the DSA, and I understand the DSA, 0:16:19.120 --> 0:16:23.200 but you know, well, I mean, you know, we're just 0:16:23.240 --> 0:16:25.480 trying to stop Donald Trump, right, Like that's what they say, 0:16:25.520 --> 0:16:29.960 We're just trying to stop Donald Trump. They hate this country. 0:16:30.040 --> 0:16:33.160 They want to destroy this country. Van Holland was asked 0:16:33.160 --> 0:16:36.280 another question on Democratic Socialists. He said, dem voters don't 0:16:36.280 --> 0:16:38.440 want to simply return to the pre Trump says quo. 0:16:38.880 --> 0:16:42.240 That is how he's defending this Marxism, socialism, and communism 0:16:42.480 --> 0:16:44.520 that has exploded within his party. 0:16:44.760 --> 0:16:47.520 Delve a little deeper into this debate that you referenced 0:16:47.520 --> 0:16:52.080 inside the Democratic Party. Florida Congressman Jared Moskowitz fended off 0:16:52.200 --> 0:16:55.680 a DSA backed challenger in his district, and he's taking 0:16:55.680 --> 0:16:59.520 a very different view of Democratic Socialists of America. Here's 0:16:59.560 --> 0:17:03.600 what he's said about DSA members likely to join Congress 0:17:03.640 --> 0:17:07.360 next year. He writes, quote, they're anti American at their core, 0:17:07.560 --> 0:17:10.080 people who have said anti American things and have said 0:17:10.080 --> 0:17:13.960 things that are pro Russia and pro China. Should they 0:17:14.080 --> 0:17:16.080 really get a security clearance? 0:17:16.119 --> 0:17:16.680 He asked? 0:17:16.720 --> 0:17:19.639 Do you think the Democratic Socialists have a place in 0:17:19.680 --> 0:17:21.600 the Democratic Party, Senator. 0:17:22.359 --> 0:17:22.879 Yes, they do. 0:17:22.960 --> 0:17:26.280 As part of the debate and in this upcoming election, 0:17:27.119 --> 0:17:30.760 candidates can be very clear about where they strongly disagree 0:17:30.800 --> 0:17:34.679 with the DSA, which is probably on most issues, but 0:17:34.800 --> 0:17:38.439 they can also talk about their own plans. So you know, 0:17:38.520 --> 0:17:41.080 I'm not afraid of debate. I think that those in 0:17:41.080 --> 0:17:43.679 the Democratic Party who are afraid of a healthy debate 0:17:44.960 --> 0:17:49.200 are missing the point because voters, including Democratic voters, they 0:17:49.200 --> 0:17:52.960 don't want to simply return to the pre Trump status quo. 0:17:53.080 --> 0:17:55.280 They want Democrats who are going to stand for something. 0:17:55.560 --> 0:17:58.679 And I can strongly disagree with one set of Democrats, 0:17:58.680 --> 0:18:00.160 but I think that debate is healthy. 0:18:00.280 --> 0:18:04.400 Look, I think that debate is healthy. Translation. We will 0:18:04.440 --> 0:18:08.080 sell out our values. We will stand with terrorist sympathizers, 0:18:09.200 --> 0:18:11.600 we will stand with people that say that we deserve 0:18:11.920 --> 0:18:15.280 nine to eleven and another one, and we will not 0:18:15.440 --> 0:18:17.760 back down from this as long as we think it 0:18:17.920 --> 0:18:22.880 means that we can probably win moving forward. That's what 0:18:22.960 --> 0:18:28.239 you just heard. We will do whatever we have to 0:18:28.400 --> 0:18:33.720 do to win. And if that means that we destroy America, 0:18:33.800 --> 0:18:36.199 find because we're all in this together, right, like we 0:18:36.320 --> 0:18:37.680 all want to destroy America. 0:18:38.040 --> 0:18:39.600 That that's the other part of this. 0:18:39.800 --> 0:18:42.720 Like, if you love America, there's no way you could 0:18:42.760 --> 0:18:45.040 stand by this and you would fight back because the 0:18:45.040 --> 0:18:48.520 stated goal of Hassan Piker and others is yes, to 0:18:48.680 --> 0:18:52.000 dismantle and destroy America. The Democratic socials of America have 0:18:52.280 --> 0:18:58.400 also made it very clear that their objective they've said 0:18:58.440 --> 0:19:01.480 it is to destroy this kund They want no Supreme Court, 0:19:02.359 --> 0:19:05.960 they want no Senate, they want no checks and balances. 0:19:06.880 --> 0:19:11.680 They don't want anything that holds back them from implementing 0:19:12.160 --> 0:19:15.600 full blown communism in the United States of America. So 0:19:15.720 --> 0:19:17.840 when they tell you this is what they believe, you 0:19:17.960 --> 0:19:21.040 really should believe them. When they tell you they hate 0:19:21.040 --> 0:19:23.640 this country, you shouldn't say no, they really don't hate 0:19:23.640 --> 0:19:28.679 this country. Yes, in fact, they actually do. They hate 0:19:28.880 --> 0:19:31.680 this country. When they tell you that they believe America 0:19:31.760 --> 0:19:35.920 is evil, you need to also understand that they actually 0:19:36.160 --> 0:19:40.880 mean it, that they are going to advocate for that, 0:19:40.880 --> 0:19:42.679 that they are going to do everything they can to 0:19:42.800 --> 0:19:46.080 destroy this country, because that is what they have stated they. 0:19:45.960 --> 0:19:46.560 Want to do. 0:19:47.520 --> 0:19:50.840 The United States of America is under attack from within. 0:19:52.080 --> 0:19:55.800 This isn't coming from overseas. This is from our elected 0:19:55.840 --> 0:19:59.359 officials and the leaders of the Democratic Party, and the 0:19:59.400 --> 0:20:01.240 Democrats going to try to fake you out going to 0:20:01.240 --> 0:20:03.399 the midterms. They're going to try to make you believe 0:20:03.440 --> 0:20:05.720 that what you're hearing is somehow Oh, they don't really 0:20:05.720 --> 0:20:08.359 believe it. But when their challenge aren't, they will not 0:20:09.119 --> 0:20:12.879 go after their own. That is what this election is 0:20:12.960 --> 0:20:17.280 actually all about. There is another example that I want 0:20:17.320 --> 0:20:20.040 to tell you about right now about just how extreme 0:20:20.080 --> 0:20:24.080 and how radical the DSA actually is. Now you have 0:20:24.119 --> 0:20:27.280 to look no further this time into and and to 0:20:27.359 --> 0:20:30.040 just deal with a basic headline, and it is one 0:20:30.119 --> 0:20:34.479 that if you are a conservative, this should terrify you 0:20:34.760 --> 0:20:38.919 that we are now at this point where this is 0:20:39.160 --> 0:20:43.119 where the Democratic Party has gone. You look in a 0:20:43.200 --> 0:20:47.359 guy by the name of Abdul l said, he is 0:20:47.400 --> 0:20:52.680 now out there attacking jd Vance's marriage. Why on earth 0:20:52.760 --> 0:21:00.080 would a senate Democratic candidate attack jd Vance's marriage his wife? Well, well, 0:21:00.119 --> 0:21:03.320 it is all because of something that jd Vance said. 0:21:04.280 --> 0:21:06.040 Now I'm going to play for you what jd Vance 0:21:06.080 --> 0:21:09.520 said so that you understand exactly what he said before 0:21:09.720 --> 0:21:13.160 I tell you what Lsaide's response was, and it was violent, 0:21:13.400 --> 0:21:16.560 grotesque and also extremely racist. 0:21:17.560 --> 0:21:18.360 Here is jd. 0:21:18.320 --> 0:21:22.160 Vance in his own words, and then you'll understand how 0:21:22.160 --> 0:21:23.280 egregious this is. 0:21:24.119 --> 0:21:26.880 It's sometimes actually hard to understand, like what do these 0:21:27.200 --> 0:21:31.320 modern Democrats actually stand for? But look what they say. 0:21:31.800 --> 0:21:34.840 Pay close attention and they'll leave these little hints of 0:21:34.840 --> 0:21:38.080 what they actually care about. Now he l Sai ed, 0:21:38.440 --> 0:21:41.800 this guy running for Senate in Michigan. He once argued 0:21:41.920 --> 0:21:45.480 not too long ago that criticisms of sharia law were 0:21:45.560 --> 0:21:48.399 rooted in white supremacist I'd love to go back in 0:21:48.480 --> 0:21:51.960 time and tell my papal that there's a man who 0:21:51.960 --> 0:21:54.960 claims to stand for working people, who says, not only 0:21:55.000 --> 0:21:57.199 should we have sharia law, but if you criticize it, 0:21:57.240 --> 0:22:01.320 you're a white supremacist. That's not my Patpal's democraty my friends. 0:22:01.640 --> 0:22:04.800 All right, so let's talk about why that story is important. 0:22:06.080 --> 0:22:08.760 What Jeddie Vance is doing is he's reminding people that 0:22:08.800 --> 0:22:12.879 the Democratic Party has become so extreme that Democrats of 0:22:13.040 --> 0:22:17.560 yesterday would not even recognize their party today. I believe 0:22:17.600 --> 0:22:19.960 JFK would be a Republican today. I think there's a 0:22:20.040 --> 0:22:22.879 chance Bill Clinton of the nineteen nineties would be a 0:22:22.920 --> 0:22:27.560 Republican today. That is how extreme the left has gone. 0:22:28.880 --> 0:22:33.119
