1 00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:05,200 Speaker 1: It is April twenty second, this is the morning. What 2 00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:08,879 Speaker 1: can be said about the disgrace on the south lawn 3 00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:13,120 Speaker 1: of the White House. Now, no president has ever sought 4 00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:18,400 Speaker 1: to sell the people's house to giant corporations. But then again, 5 00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:22,600 Speaker 1: no scumbag like Donald Trump has ever risen to the 6 00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:26,240 Speaker 1: office of President of the United States. And so it 7 00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:30,760 Speaker 1: was a south lawn fire sale. The White House completely 8 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:37,840 Speaker 1: commercialized Amazon, Meta, all the tech oligarchs had their little 9 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 1: spaces on the White House lawn. Doesn't matter what the 10 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:46,840 Speaker 1: law says, doesn't matter what the regulation say, because if 11 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:50,320 Speaker 1: Trump wants to do it, trump can do it. That 12 00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 1: is the fundamental central operating premise of the Trump regime, 13 00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 1: which is that Trump is above the law, the rules, 14 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 1: the regulation, the laws there for little people, the lesser 15 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:08,680 Speaker 1: than people like you, they do not apply. Now, imagine 16 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:11,920 Speaker 1: if you're a sergeant in the Marine Corps or a 17 00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:16,040 Speaker 1: private and you lose your rifle. Might there be a consequence? 18 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 1: What about for the Defense secretary who puts secret battle 19 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 1: plans during military operations more than once into signal chats 20 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: that include his former mistress now his third wife, his 21 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 1: third tier lawyer, and his brother, And when the Defense 22 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:39,039 Speaker 1: secretary is asked about it. Does he own up to 23 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,679 Speaker 1: it like a man? Does he respond to the questions 24 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 1: with concepts that include accountability responsibility? Does he appreciate that 25 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: he has massive authority and with it comes responsibility for 26 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 1: other people's lives and the accountability for it? Obviously not. 27 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 2: See this is what the media does. They take anonymous 28 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 2: sources from disgruntled former employees and then they try to 29 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 2: slash and burn people and ruin their reputations. Not gonna 30 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 2: work with me because we're changing the Defense Department, putting 31 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,519 Speaker 2: the Pentagon back in the hands of war fighters, and 32 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:23,239 Speaker 2: anonymous smears from disgruntled former employees on old news doesn't matter. 33 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:24,679 Speaker 2: So I'm happy to be here at the East Regg 34 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 2: Roll with my dad and my kids because you know, 35 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 2: this is what we're doing it for these kids right here. 36 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: Can you imagine if you walk into Xixiingping's office is 37 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 1: the Chinese Defense minister, and show him the video of 38 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 1: this clown, Jixiingping must be like, is he the Easter Bunny? 39 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: There are no words yesterday the red letters. Tara Palmieri 40 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 1: reported on Laura Lumer, a thirty one year old whack job, 41 00:02:55,000 --> 00:03:01,279 Speaker 1: legitimate mental patient disordered personality, who is among Donald Trump's 42 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:07,679 Speaker 1: most powerful advisors? And there's two parts to Palmery's reporting. 43 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:11,519 Speaker 1: The first is she's a one woman news network. Why 44 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 1: isn't this on CNN or on ABC News or on 45 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 1: MSNBC or on NBC or on CBS. Why is there 46 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 1: never an interview done with the most powerful people around Trump? 47 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: This nut walked into the Oval Office and she got 48 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 1: a significant portion of the National security staff fired. And 49 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: she was there in the Oval Office to take out 50 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 1: the National Security advisor, who, like Pete Hagsath, is utterly unfit, 51 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 1: completely unqualified, and should not be in his job. Now, 52 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 1: is this the way the White House should run? What 53 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 1: you're told by Politico, you're told by all the Washington 54 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: tip sheets, is Susie Wiles, Oh, the Trump grandma? She's 55 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 1: in charge? Are you kidding me? Susie Wiles is out 56 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: of control, meaning she has no control. She's like a 57 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 1: monkey in a cage full of other monkeys throwing their 58 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:26,159 Speaker 1: feces at one another. She's in charge of nothing. The 59 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 1: person who's in charge is Donald Trump Junior. And by 60 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 1: the way, Ooda made it clear that after Pete haggsas spokesperson, 61 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,599 Speaker 1: went out and told the truth and said there is 62 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 1: total chaos in the Pentagon. Well Ooda made it clear 63 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:47,159 Speaker 1: the truth teller faces exile all of a sudden, all 64 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 1: of Pete Hagsay's handpick guys or maga enemies that took 65 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: a month. The chaos, the incompetence, the idiocy, the extremism, 66 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:02,720 Speaker 1: the crookedness, the insanity, the weirdness, none of it can 67 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 1: be hidden. The American people will see it all. The 68 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 1: American economy is collapsing, the dollar is collapsing. All of 69 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 1: this is happening deliberately, purposefully, premeditatively. Donald Trump is crazy, 70 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 1: He's incoherent, and yet on any given day, the people, 71 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:29,559 Speaker 1: confirmed by the Senate America's Polo Bureau, who have given 72 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:34,159 Speaker 1: these people power, on any given day, these people will 73 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 1: make clear the only thing that matters is the grace 74 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,720 Speaker 1: and glory of Donald Trump. Let's listen to Pete haggscept 75 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 1: the Defense Secretary at an Easter event, unable to refrain 76 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: from making partisan comments. Hoasters. 77 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,719 Speaker 2: This group, no, no, this group right here full of hoasters. 78 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 2: The pedal anonymous sources from leakers with access to grind 79 00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 2: and then you put it all together as if some 80 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:04,160 Speaker 2: news story and what we know are you know exactly 81 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 2: what it is. So I'm really proud of what we're 82 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 2: doing for the President, fighting hard across the board, and 83 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,719 Speaker 2: I'm going to go roll some East Eggs with my kids. 84 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:19,479 Speaker 1: These people, their wretchedness, their disgustingness, there truly are no 85 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:24,279 Speaker 1: words to describe it. What they represent is America's decay, 86 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 1: a deep rot, a corruption that's been built up over 87 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 1: twenty five years, a black mold. We have the worst 88 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:40,599 Speaker 1: people ever elected, to ever confirmed, to ever appointed to 89 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 1: high office in the history of the United States. Right now, 90 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 1: in this moment, they are part of a sick, sick 91 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 1: political movement. The fascist pig Marjorie Taylor Green at the 92 00:06:56,120 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 1: moment of the death of Pope Francis tweets out, God 93 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 1: killed the Pope. These people are more than a menace. 94 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:08,839 Speaker 1: They're a disease in the American people, or the cure 95 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 1: or the dead patient, either or the country either gives 96 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 1: the Democratic Party the power to deal with these people 97 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 1: like hegseeth or country's gone, simple as that, And so 98 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 1: right now, in this moment, the Democratic Party as an institution, 99 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 1: as an organization is run by, controlled by a group 100 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 1: of geriatrics, a group of self interested hustlers, and yoked 101 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 1: to the aspirations of this woman with the folder over 102 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: her face, this guy who thinks that the path to 103 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 1: the future runs through the Charlie Kirk Show, and Kamala 104 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: Harris as mediocrity, as Vice President who can't speak in 105 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: a coherent sentence when he's asked a very simple question 106 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 1: by Jake disaster is very close. We have a fascist 107 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 1: party and a silly party. We have a malevolent party 108 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 1: and a rollover party. We have a I'm taking everything 109 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 1: from you party and I won't fight for anything party 110 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 1: opposing it. It's not acceptable. Nobody is going to rescue 111 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 1: the American people from this. The American people must rise 112 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 1: up and revolt against this insanity. Next month, Donald Trump 113 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 1: and Pete agsth will be standing in front of thousands 114 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: of new lieutenants and ensigns and the armed forces of 115 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 1: the United States. These young men and women, who have 116 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:45,679 Speaker 1: been taught a curriculum of honor and service and patriotism 117 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:50,680 Speaker 1: will have their commissioning day desecrated by their commanders, who 118 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 1: stand for every value they have been taught to hold 119 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 1: contempt for and if anybody thinks that that's not a crisis, 120 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 1: might I suggest as soon as possible, did they remove 121 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 1: their head from their ass?
