1 00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:04,320 Speaker 1: Nancy Mays asked a question that I too have often 2 00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:07,800 Speaker 1: asked myself. It was about Lindsay Graham, and she wondered 3 00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:10,879 Speaker 1: why would he say that. Here's what he said. 4 00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:13,880 Speaker 2: I can't go to South Carolina and say we're fighting 5 00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:17,079 Speaker 2: and you won't publicly fight what you're doing behind the scenes. 6 00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:19,920 Speaker 2: That has to stop the double dealing of the Arab 7 00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:22,159 Speaker 2: world when it comes to this stuff. Needs then I 8 00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:24,680 Speaker 2: go back to South Carolina. I'm asking them to send 9 00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:26,880 Speaker 2: their sons and daughters over to the Mid East. What 10 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:28,600 Speaker 2: I want you to do in the Mideast, to our 11 00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:31,600 Speaker 2: friends and Sarry Raven other places, step forward and say 12 00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:34,760 Speaker 2: this is my fight too. I join America. I'm publicly 13 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:37,519 Speaker 2: involved in bringing this regime down. If you don't, you're 14 00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:39,559 Speaker 2: making a great mistake and you're going to cut off 15 00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:42,880 Speaker 2: the ability to have a better relationship with the United States. 16 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 2: I say this as a friend. 17 00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:48,200 Speaker 1: Think about that. Lindsay Graham, who is not a lord 18 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:53,480 Speaker 1: of Donald Trump's roundtable. He's elected, and he's up for reelection, 19 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:59,560 Speaker 1: and he's asking South Carolina's parents to trust him to 20 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:03,640 Speaker 1: send their children to war in Iran with no plan 21 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 1: for what comes next. A war we are losing. It 22 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,039 Speaker 1: is Wednesday in March the eleventh, and I'm Steve Schmid 23 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:13,839 Speaker 1: and for those of you who will watch this on YouTube, 24 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 1: please think about becoming a member. This is the warning. 25 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 1: Let's talk about trust, judgment, and loyalty. Loyalty should be 26 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 1: to the country, to the US Constitution, but it's not. 27 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,559 Speaker 1: Watch this from Steve Wickoff. 28 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 3: We fiduciaries, and we're very loyal to the United States 29 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:39,959 Speaker 3: of America and to the commander in chief, President Trump. 30 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 3: And the job was to go there and to determine 31 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 3: if in good faith we could get to an agreement 32 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 3: with them, if in good faith we could have oversight 33 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 3: protocols to make sure they were complying with the agreement 34 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 3: based on past bad behavior and in good faith, whether 35 00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 3: they would stand by an agreement. 36 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 1: Like this, Trump's real estate buddy who now runs around 37 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:08,800 Speaker 1: the world doing corrupt deals with Jared Kushner. He is 38 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 1: what the Russians call a useful idiot, and he is 39 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:16,520 Speaker 1: the man who allows Vladimir Putin's war of aggression to 40 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 1: rage unabated in Ukraine. Now, as a result of the 41 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 1: efforts in part of Jared Kushner and Trump's team of 42 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:30,080 Speaker 1: Sikophans and incompetence, all of them wearing the shoes he 43 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 1: gifted them. Look at these from Little Marco three size 44 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 1: is too big in January. These are the one hundred 45 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: and forty five dollars Florsheim shoes that jd Vance has 46 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 1: four pairs of. Trump is obsessed on giving his men, 47 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 1: his minions, his little men, his tiny men, the shoes 48 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:55,079 Speaker 1: that he insists they wear. Think about these sick offense 49 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: when you watch this from Jared Kushner. 50 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,360 Speaker 4: What you've seen today is just a small sample of 51 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 4: the work that's been done. And I really want to 52 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 4: thank the entire team that's worked so hard at this. 53 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 4: A lot of these people are volunteers. They're doing this 54 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 4: not for any personal gain. People are not personally profiting 55 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 4: from this. They are really doing this for their children 56 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 4: and for their grandchildren and because they want to see peace. 57 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 5: Or this from Steve Wickoff, What do you say to 58 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 5: them about why this is so critical for the US 59 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 5: to be doing what it is doing in Iran right now? 60 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,919 Speaker 5: How do you persuade them? 61 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 3: I say to them, Sarah that if they have children, 62 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 3: think about what this world would look like if you 63 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 3: didn't have Donald Trump as the president, because in a year, 64 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 3: if you had someone who didn't have the courage to 65 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 3: do this action, you'd have thirty or forty nuclear bombs 66 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 3: and what would the world look like there? So thank 67 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 3: god we have a president and leadership at the HELM 68 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 3: that makes these courageous decisions. 69 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 1: We live in a time where trust is the rarest 70 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: of commodities. We live an an age where you're ordinary American, 71 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 1: average people, good people do not believe a word. They 72 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 1: don't trust the news media, and for good reason, they 73 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 1: don't trust its corporate ownership. And for good reason, they 74 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 1: don't trust the tech companies. They don't trust the big banks, 75 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,839 Speaker 1: they don't trust the artificial intelligence industry that's praying on 76 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 1: them already. They don't trust the social media companies. They 77 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 1: don't trust Trump, they don't trust his cabinet, and they 78 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: don't trust the Congress. But there are men and women 79 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,279 Speaker 1: in the Congress who can be trusted. And one of 80 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 1: them is the outstanding US Senator from Connecticut, Chris Murphy. 81 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,719 Speaker 1: This is what he said after leaving a classified briefing 82 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: about Donald Trump's war. 83 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 5: I just came from a two hour closed door classified 84 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 5: briefing on the war. Just confirmed to me. It's totally incoherent, 85 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:01,840 Speaker 5: not going to be able to achieve any of our 86 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 5: stated objectives. But I mention it because it's another closed 87 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 5: door briefing. We have still not yet heard a full 88 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 5: explanation as to why this is necessary. We still have 89 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 5: had no hearings in front of Congress that the public 90 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 5: can see. And I think that's pretty simple because if 91 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 5: the President did what the Constitution says, come to Congress 92 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 5: to get authorization for this war, he wouldn't get it. 93 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:31,719 Speaker 5: He's the American people would demand that their member of Congress, 94 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 5: their senator, whether they be a Republican or Democrat, vote no. 95 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 1: Because this is a disaster. 96 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:41,159 Speaker 5: Of epic proportions. It's already getting Americans killed, it's driving 97 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 5: up prices here at home. Harder line leadership, more antithetical 98 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 5: to us interests are strengthening inside Iran, and there's really 99 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 5: no way that we're going to be able to destroy 100 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 5: their nuclear program because most of it is buried underground 101 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,119 Speaker 5: unless we mount a ground invasion, which would be even 102 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 5: more disastrous and more unpopular. This has just been a debacle, 103 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 5: a ten day debacle, and we're going to use whatever 104 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 5: leverage we have in the Senate to try to prompt 105 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 5: those hearings, to try to prompt that vote, and to 106 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:16,279 Speaker 5: get this administration to start paying attention to the Constitution. 107 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 1: I trust Chris Murphy, and so should you listen to 108 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 1: these men talk about their loyalty to Trump. 109 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 6: We are bringing America back again, and it's largely because 110 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,360 Speaker 6: the leadership of the gentleman that I'll introduce to you 111 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 6: in a moment. He is the most active president, the 112 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 6: most energized president, the most successful president, I believe in 113 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,839 Speaker 6: my lifetime, and he's proven it over and over and over. 114 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 6: And part of it is because he doesn't sleep, thankfully. 115 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 6: He's got so much to do. And I know that 116 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,039 Speaker 6: because I get calls from him at two am and 117 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 6: seven am sometimes in the same day. He doesn't require 118 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 6: a lot of sleep, thankfully, And he is the man 119 00:06:55,680 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 6: for the moment. His achievements are incalculable. History will request 120 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 6: that this president came at exactly the right time on 121 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 6: the eve of the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary. The 122 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 6: greatest nation in the history of the world, the most free, 123 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 6: and most successful, and most powerful, most benevolent nation that 124 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 6: has ever been. And we understand and he understands that 125 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 6: it's not guaranteed. He understands that we have to fight 126 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 6: for it every single day. 127 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:24,440 Speaker 1: They are on their knees. And Donald Trump has started 128 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 1: a war that involves twenty different nations and has choked 129 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 1: off the delivery of the world's oil supply, which will 130 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 1: spike prices upwards of one hundred and fifty dollars a gallon. 131 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: It is an economic disaster. It is a job's disaster, 132 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 1: It is an inflation disaster. It is a Donald Trump disaster. 133 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 1: The bill is coming due for every American that was 134 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 1: foolish enough to put their trust in Donald Trump. But 135 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 1: there are no permanent victories in American politics. In the 136 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 1: American yeople have a right, a duty, and a responsibility 137 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 1: to vote these people out of office. They must be defeated, 138 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 1: included Lindsey Grant. I honestly don't know what is wrong 139 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 1: with him. Who could, But he is bloodthirsty, He is lonely, 140 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 1: and he seems energized fetishizing death and destructionists one hundred 141 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 1: and sixty eight children likely killed by an American Tomahawk 142 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:36,320 Speaker 1: missile that missed its target. The Secretary of Defense has 143 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 1: a zeal for war. The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs 144 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 1: of Staff is unimpressive, to say the least. The United 145 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 1: States Congress, through leaders like Chris Murphy, must take the 146 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:54,840 Speaker 1: American people's opposition to this insanity to the floor of 147 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 1: the Congress and debated, and it must be opposed. It 148 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 1: must be opposed because it is not in America's national 149 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:07,319 Speaker 1: security interest to lose more men and women, to deepen 150 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:11,840 Speaker 1: the hole in which we find ourselves having been put there, 151 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 1: placed there by Donald Trump, who dug it. If we 152 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 1: are to lose this war, it is better to withdraw now. 153 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 1: And we are going to lose this war because we 154 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 1: cannot achieve the objective that Donald Trump stated, which is 155 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 1: to topple the regime, and has now changed. That's gone. 156 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 1: Each day there are new reasons for the war, each 157 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 1: contradicting the last. The bluster never stops, but the rationale 158 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 1: changes like the weather. Here's the deal. Chris Murphy can 159 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 1: be trusted to tell you the truth. And what he's 160 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 1: trying to say is there is no plan for what 161 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:55,079 Speaker 1: comes next. This is incoherent, it is incompetent, it is improvisational, 162 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,840 Speaker 1: and it is deadly serious. And it is expanded to 163 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 1: twenty nations and it has every potential to direct the 164 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 1: American economy. This is what MAGA has done. They lied 165 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: when they said they wanted peace, and here we are, 166 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,839 Speaker 1: and this is the warning. And I'm Steve Schmidt. This 167 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:17,959 Speaker 1: is the warning. I invite you to join this community 168 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:22,319 Speaker 1: where I promise to be honest, blunt and direct about 169 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 1: what is happening in this country. America is in crisis. 170 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:30,200 Speaker 1: Follow and subscribe to this channel and on substack. Thank you.
