1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,600 Speaker 1: If you want to know who the leaders of the 2 00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:05,360 Speaker 1: Democratic Party are, you don't have to look much further 3 00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:09,600 Speaker 1: than what just happened. On the international stage, AOC had 4 00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:15,000 Speaker 1: her first major international moment. When you're dealing with foreign policy, 5 00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:17,759 Speaker 1: it's something you should know what to talk about, right 6 00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:20,280 Speaker 1: And if you've decided that you're going to go to 7 00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:24,200 Speaker 1: the security conference, it's kind of a big deal, then 8 00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:27,800 Speaker 1: you should probably be prepared to talk about basic foreign 9 00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:34,400 Speaker 1: policy issues. Now, this was AOC's first major fora on 10 00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:37,480 Speaker 1: the international stage ahead of her twenty twenty eight campaign. 11 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:42,120 Speaker 1: It didn't go very well. Now you may be saying why, 12 00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:47,360 Speaker 1: all right, I'll tell exactly why. AOC stumbled over her 13 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:52,120 Speaker 1: own words at the Munich Security Conference on Friday and 14 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:58,640 Speaker 1: wouldn't commit to defending Taiwan at all even if China invaded. 15 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:03,319 Speaker 1: She was asked a simple question. I want to make 16 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:08,200 Speaker 1: that clear, A simple question that everyone should be able 17 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:11,960 Speaker 1: to answer. Now, I say everyone, because if you're going 18 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,760 Speaker 1: to the Security Council in Munich, you know that the 19 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 1: questions you're going to be asked are about security. That 20 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,919 Speaker 1: is not a surprise, it's literally what you're there for. 21 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 1: You shouldn't be surprised that you're dealing with international security, 22 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:31,039 Speaker 1: because that is also what the conference is for. I 23 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,080 Speaker 1: want you to listen to AOC being asked a very 24 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:37,679 Speaker 1: simple question, and she is, no doubt one of the 25 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 1: biggest leaders of the Democratic Party. 26 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 2: Would and should the US actually commit US troops to 27 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,040 Speaker 2: defend Taiwan if China were to move? 28 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 3: You know, I think that this is such a you know, 29 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 3: I think that this is a this is of course 30 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 3: a very long standing policy of the United States, And 31 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 3: I think what we are hoping for is that we 32 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 3: want to make sure that we never get to that point, 33 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 3: and we want to make sure that we are moving 34 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 3: in all of our economic research and our global positions 35 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 3: to avoid any such confrontation. And for that question to 36 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 3: even arise. 37 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 1: Now that is what you call a word salad. There 38 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:32,359 Speaker 1: was a lot of you know, in fact, let's just 39 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 1: actually read the actual quote. You know, I think that 40 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 1: this is such a you know, I think that this 41 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:43,359 Speaker 1: is this is of course a very long standing policy 42 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 1: of the United States of America. That is AOC struggling 43 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 1: to answer the very basic question at the Munich Security 44 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 1: Conference and would not commit to defending Taiwan if China 45 00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 1: ever invades. What we are hoping for is that we 46 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,639 Speaker 1: want to make sure that we never get to that point. 47 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 1: She added, Okay, well then how would you do that, AOC. 48 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,080 Speaker 1: It's a very fair question, and we want to make 49 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 1: sure that we are moving in all of our economic research, 50 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:16,079 Speaker 1: in our goal positions to avoid any such confrontation and 51 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: for that question to ever rise. That's, by the way, 52 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 1: is not an answer. Beijing, by the way, so AOC 53 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,360 Speaker 1: knows this, and apparently she doesn't know this, has long 54 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 1: claim to have sovereignty over Taiwan, despite the East Asian 55 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 1: island having its own government, its own military, and its 56 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 1: own currency. The Chinese military has already staged massive war 57 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 1: exercises around Taiwan in December, sparking real fears that it 58 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 1: could be preparing to invade the island. China's communist government 59 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 1: described the exercise as a quote stern warning following the 60 00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 1: Trump administration's approval of a eleven billion her arm cells 61 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:06,119 Speaker 1: to Taiwan. Now, US policy on whether American forces would 62 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: intervene in an invasion has historically been ambiguous. AOC's remarks 63 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:16,159 Speaker 1: in Germany come also as speculation that she is, if 64 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 1: not in second place, maybe in first place, eyeing the 65 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 1: White House. In the Democratic Party, Keavin Newsom also in 66 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 1: the equation. Now, during that forum, AOC who, by the way, 67 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,279 Speaker 1: is no longer just you know, some random person. She's 68 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 1: the leader in the Democratic Party. She's thirty six now, 69 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 1: and she was unable to give even a basic answer 70 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 1: to by the way, significant but also a very basic 71 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 1: foreign policy issue. It's a question that anyone that knows 72 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,679 Speaker 1: anything would have prepped her for. If you were going 73 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 1: to the Security Council meeting in Murich. This is not hard, okay, 74 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 1: And if you were going to go to this conference, 75 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:02,840 Speaker 1: let's also be extremely clear you would prepare for this question. 76 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 1: You would also prepare for other basic questions. Now, when 77 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: I say, what's another basic question? Russia Ukraine would be 78 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 1: another basic question, Iran Israel another basic question, Taiwan and 79 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:28,600 Speaker 1: China another basic question. If you are speaking, you should 80 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 1: know that this was going to come up. So how 81 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 1: did she not have the ability to answer this question? Well, 82 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 1: it brings up another one of the big people that 83 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:44,279 Speaker 1: was also at this meeting, and that other person was 84 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom. Gavin Newsom also had major problems at this meeting. 85 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:54,359 Speaker 1: He was asked basic questions as well, and Gavin Newsom 86 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,840 Speaker 1: decided while he was on the international stage to do 87 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 1: something a little different. He didn't have to deal with Taiwan. Instead, 88 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 1: he decided it was a good idea to compare American 89 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:10,719 Speaker 1: law enforcement officers to Nazis. Wow in Germany. 90 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,039 Speaker 4: But I want to remember all those images of masked men, 91 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 4: the secret police, something familiar in Germany. Those first images 92 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 4: came out of my state, the second largest city in 93 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 4: the United States of America. We saw four thousand National 94 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 4: Guard federalized first time. We never sit anything like this, 95 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:32,479 Speaker 4: and seven hundred active duty Marines sent not overseas, but 96 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,839 Speaker 4: to the second largest city in the United States of America, 97 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 4: militarizing the streets of my city. Masked men, masked men 98 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 4: showing up unaccountable. No idea, ideas. 99 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 1: That is Gavin Newsom comparing American law enforcement officers to Nazis. 100 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 1: Wow in Germany. Something familiar in Germany, mass men, secret police. 101 00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,719 Speaker 1: So you have AOC not knowing how to answer basic 102 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 1: question about Taiwan, and you have Gavin Newsom deciding to 103 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:08,479 Speaker 1: go to the world stage and to then compare American 104 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 1: law enforcement to the Nazis. This is the Democratic Party. 105 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 1: Now there's others in the Democratic Party that were there 106 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 1: as well. The Michigan governor, for example, Gretchen Whitmer was there. 107 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 1: I'm going to play for you what she had to 108 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 1: say coming up in a moment as well, because it 109 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 1: is shocking. But as you think about Gavin Newsom, what 110 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: leader of the United States of America, many would argue 111 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 1: he is the front runner. Okay, he is the front 112 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 1: runner of the Democratic Party right now. Thinks it's a 113 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 1: good idea to go overseas and to trash America, law enforcement, America, 114 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 1: law and order, to go overseas and not only trash 115 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 1: a Mayamerica, but while he was trashing America, he was 116 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 1: doing it in the same place where there were actual Nazis. 117 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 1: This is the part that is truly the most shocking 118 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 1: to me. And if you want to know what's going 119 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 1: to happen to America if AOC or Gavin Newsom gets elected, 120 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 1: just look at their answers from Muick. Look at these 121 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 1: answers of what is happening in this country around the world. 122 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 1: These people they know that they're going to sit with 123 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 1: hate us. During a foreign policy panel in Munich, Whitmer 124 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 1: said AOC actually knew more about foreign policy than she did. 125 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 1: That's not a joke. She meant it. She struggled to 126 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 1: answer another question about Ukraine, and then she even looked 127 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 1: to a Trump ambassador on the panel for an answer. Now, 128 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:55,440 Speaker 1: this is not a joke. This really happened. She's asked 129 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 1: a basic question. She's telling people, I want to be 130 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 1: president right like I want to be And she's like, 131 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 1: I don't know how to answer this question. I'll get 132 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 1: that answer. Let me phone a friend. I'm gonna let's 133 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,679 Speaker 1: bring an AOC she knows more about this. And then 134 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:09,840 Speaker 1: AOC's like, no, no, no, you go ahead, and it's like, 135 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:11,599 Speaker 1: let me, let me divert to the other guy in 136 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 1: the panel, who's a Trump ambassador by the way, a 137 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,320 Speaker 1: friend of mine. And listen now he's like, no, no, 138 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 1: I'd love to hear what you have to say. Please 139 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 1: go ahead on Ukraine. 140 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:23,440 Speaker 4: What does Victory look liked? 141 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 5: I'd love to hear your answer. 142 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, it is. 143 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,840 Speaker 6: I the two, the two that I am on the 144 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 6: panel with, are much more steeped in foreign policy than 145 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 6: a than a governor is. But you know, I do 146 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 6: think that Ukraine's independence keeping their their land mass and 147 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 6: having the support of all the allies. I think is 148 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 6: is the goal from my vantage point. Go ahead, ambassador, 149 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 6: do better job. 150 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 1: I mean, that's amazing. She's literally saying to the ambassador 151 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 1: of the United States, like at the UN, this is 152 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 1: a guy who Trump appointed. She's like, go ahead and master, 153 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 1: you take this. I'm just a measly old governor. What 154 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: do I know about foreign policy? You know that you're 155 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 1: going to the Security Council conference to talk about foreign policy. 156 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 1: There is nothing bigger than a layup to prep for 157 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 1: these conferences to and again, I've done this type of 158 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: prep countless times in my career for candidates. You're going 159 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:29,719 Speaker 1: to You're going to Munich, okay, great. You need to 160 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:31,439 Speaker 1: know about everything's going on in the world right now. 161 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 1: Specifically what they do is a security So you're gonna 162 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 1: need to know a lot about about China. You need 163 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 1: to know a lot about Russia. You need to know 164 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 1: a lot about Ukraine. You need to know a lot 165 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,839 Speaker 1: about Israel and Hamas and Hezbolah. You need to know 166 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 1: a lot about al Qaeda and ISIS and al Shabab 167 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 1: and other terrorist groups. You're gonna need to know about 168 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,959 Speaker 1: China and Taiwan, and and then these other wars are 169 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 1: taking place. Any war that's going on right now, I 170 00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 1: just name them. Right, this is not hard. You're gonna 171 00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: need about the conflict between Russian and Ukraine. You're gonna 172 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 1: need to know Middle East in general, and then Iran Israel, 173 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 1: and then you're gonna need to know like what else 174 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 1: is going on in the world, Like, this is not hard. 175 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 1: A Ran nuclear deal is another example, like you need 176 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 1: to know this stuff if you're going to this conference, 177 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 1: otherwise don't go. And when you're asked a question that 178 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 1: is this simple about foreign policy, like what does success 179 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: look like in Ukraine? I know how to answer that 180 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 1: question without being prepped. You would think that she would 181 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 1: have been prepped by way. Don't tell me you didn't 182 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,360 Speaker 1: have time. It's a really long flight. And when these 183 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:34,719 Speaker 1: guys don't know what to say, you know what they 184 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: go back to. They go back to racism. I played 185 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:43,440 Speaker 1: for you earlier and it was really interesting. But I 186 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 1: played for you earlier. When you've got Democrats Gavin Newsom 187 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:54,439 Speaker 1: attacking Ice on foreign soil and saying that they're the Nazis, 188 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 1: take a listen to AOC and what she had to 189 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 1: say again, listen to who she's attacking here. 190 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 5: My name is Hagar, I'm from Israel. I'm a journalist 191 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,719 Speaker 5: for Haretz, and my question is for a congresswoman o 192 00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 5: Kazi Cortes. I wanted to know if you think that 193 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:19,359 Speaker 5: the Democratic presidential candidate in the twenty twenty eight elections 194 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:23,880 Speaker 5: should reevaluate military aid to Israel. 195 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:29,680 Speaker 3: I mean, to me, this isn't just about a presidential election. Personally, 196 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 3: I think that the United States has an obligation to 197 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 3: uphold its own laws, particularly le Hey laws, and I 198 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 3: think that personally that the idea of completely unconditional aid 199 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 3: no matter what one does, does not make sense. I 200 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 3: think it enabled the genocide in Gaza, and I think 201 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 3: that we have thousands of women and children dead that 202 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 3: don't that was completely avoidable. And so I believe that 203 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 3: enforcement of our own laws, through the Leaky laws, which 204 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 3: requires conditioning aid in any circumstance when you see gross 205 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,319 Speaker 3: human rights violations, is appropriate. 206 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:24,320 Speaker 1: AOC just called the Jewish state genocidal in Germany, where 207 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 1: the Jews endured the worst genocide in the history of 208 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:31,720 Speaker 1: the world. Now you may ask yourself this question, why 209 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 1: is it that AOC Gretchen Whitmer and others are able 210 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: to say these things and get away with it. How 211 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:46,319 Speaker 1: is the Gavin Newsom can say what he said and 212 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,960 Speaker 1: get away with it, comparing American law enforcement officers to 213 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 1: Nazis while in Germany mass men secret police. Could it 214 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,560 Speaker 1: be because the leaders of their party, the elder statesman 215 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,319 Speaker 1: of their party, are saying, go ahead and do it now. 216 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 1: I say that to then play for you. One of 217 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 1: those elder statesmen, Barack Obama, by all intensive purposes, is 218 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 1: the guy. He is the godfather of the Democratic Party 219 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:17,559 Speaker 1: right now. He is the elder statesman. Barack Obama is 220 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 1: an individual who clearly is not able to run for reelection. Right, 221 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: he's been there four years twice, so that's eight total. 222 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: So he's done. But what he can do is he 223 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 1: can certainly give a real nod of where the party 224 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 1: should be going. And when he talks, the party listens. 225 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 1: I want you to hear what Barack Obama said, comparing 226 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 1: ice agents to what he describes as rogue behavior, and 227 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 1: then moves and says, this is what dictatorships do. This 228 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 1: is again American law enforcement being criticized by Barack Obama. 229 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 2: The rogue behavior of agents of the federal government is 230 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 2: deeply concerning and dangerous. The sort of behavior that in 231 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 2: the past we've seen in authoritarian countries, and we've seen 232 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:22,280 Speaker 2: in dictatorships, but we have not seen in America. 233 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:32,240 Speaker 1: Obama compares ice agents to rogue behavior to dictatorship. Do 234 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 1: you want to know why all these people feel comfortable 235 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 1: enough to go out there and do and say what 236 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 1: they're saying right now. It is because the leaders of 237 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 1: the party are saying it's okay to say and do 238 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 1: these things. Hillary Clinton, by the way, she's another elder 239 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 1: statesman of the party, whether you like it or not, 240 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 1: said this about America. 241 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 7: So you know, I understand conservative impulses. I understand we 242 00:15:55,840 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 7: are fighting an ideological battle that is as old as time. 243 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,360 Speaker 7: There are those of us who are more comfortable in 244 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 7: a more open, tolerant world, and there are those who 245 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 7: have their concerns about it because they worry about the 246 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 7: impact on existing institutions like the family, community and others. 247 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 1: By the way, notice they're what she just did. She 248 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 1: wants you to believe that the Democratic Party is the 249 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:27,160 Speaker 1: only party that stands up for family, that the Democratic 250 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 1: Party is the only party that believes in traditional values. 251 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 1: What are the traditional values you believe in mutilating children 252 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 1: and turning them into the opposite sex of what they 253 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 1: were born abortion? What are these traditional values where you 254 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:49,280 Speaker 1: say that parents don't have a right to be involved 255 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 1: with their kids in school? Is that another part of it? 256 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 1: I really do want to know. I want to know. 257 00:16:55,760 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 1: Someone explain it to me. Please, someone tell me this. 258 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:07,160 Speaker 1: I want to know, because what I'm hearing from her 259 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 1: there is nothing but a total, an utter, not only 260 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 1: hit on conservatives, but a flat out lie. Hillary Clinton 261 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:23,120 Speaker 1: at the conference going on a dietribe saying that America 262 00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:26,080 Speaker 1: was designed for white male capitalists, not for people who 263 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,399 Speaker 1: look like me. This isn't a joke. That's a woman's 264 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 1: gotten insanely rich off of what she is, and she 265 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 1: says it wasn't designed for her. I guess that's because 266 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,639 Speaker 1: she lost the presidential election. I'm guessing you know, first 267 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,640 Speaker 1: Lady Twice wasn't enough for her, Center wasn't enough for her. 268 00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 1: Secretary of State, wasn't enough for Hillary Clinton. No, no, no, no, 269 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:49,400 Speaker 1: this country's not designed for her. And she makes money 270 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 1: going around the world trashing us. 271 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:58,440 Speaker 7: So this really, Yes, migration has been a huge flashpoint. 272 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:05,800 Speaker 7: More people were deported under my husband and Barack Obama, 273 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:10,720 Speaker 7: without killing American citizens and without putting children into detention 274 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:13,439 Speaker 7: camps than were in the first Trump term or this 275 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 7: first year of Trump's second term. So I think it's 276 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 7: important to look at the facts because very often the 277 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 7: ideological impulse to try to protect the status quo or 278 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:31,639 Speaker 7: return making America great again in some nostalgic past that 279 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:38,160 Speaker 7: existed for white men and capitalist enterprise was not exactly 280 00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:42,119 Speaker 7: open and welcoming to people who look like me and 281 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 7: a lot of other people who are part of our 282 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:50,639 Speaker 7: national fabric. I have no argument with the necessity of 283 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 7: trying to figure out how do we form families. I'm 284 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:56,200 Speaker 7: very proud of my family. I'm proud of my three grandchildren. 285 00:18:56,280 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 7: I am proud to be part of that tradition. That 286 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,680 Speaker 7: doesn't mean everybody has to be. That doesn't mean everyone 287 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:06,960 Speaker 7: who doesn't have children is somehow an illegitimate human being. 288 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,120 Speaker 7: So how do we make the case in a positive way, 289 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:14,880 Speaker 7: not a bullying and very shameful way. So this debate 290 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 7: that's going on is driven by an effort to control people, 291 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 7: to control who we are, how we look, who we love, 292 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 7: And I think we need to call it for what 293 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 7: it is. Secretara is a legitimate reason to have a 294 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:36,160 Speaker 7: debate about things like migration. It went too far. It's 295 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 7: been disruptive and destabilizing, and it needs to be fixed 296 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 7: in a humane way with secure borders that don't torture 297 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:45,560 Speaker 7: and kill people. 298 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 1: And I'm sorry, did you hear what she just said? 299 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 1: She has said the United States of America is torturing 300 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:55,240 Speaker 1: and killing people at our southern border. This is what 301 00:19:55,280 --> 00:20:01,040 Speaker 1: she just said. She just said that America, and I'm 302 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 1: assuming she's meaning clearly under Donald Trump, is torturing and 303 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 1: killing people at the border. That's a pathological lie. If 304 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:19,160 Speaker 1: anybody's torturing killing people at the border, it is criminals 305 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:22,679 Speaker 1: who are legal immigrants who are coming across the border 306 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 1: and killing countless Americans and poisoning countless Americans. That is 307 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,959 Speaker 1: the truth. But what you have there is you have 308 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:42,640 Speaker 1: a straight up liar, Hillary Clinton trashing America. I'm gonna 309 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:45,879 Speaker 1: back it up fifteen seconds and I'm gonna let it 310 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,160 Speaker 1: play because I want you to hear it. But this 311 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:52,400 Speaker 1: is again Hillary Clinton trashing America on foreign soil in Germany. 312 00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 7: To be fixed in a humane way with secure borders 313 00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:59,920 Speaker 7: that don't torture and kill people, and how we're going 314 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 7: to have a strong family structure because. 315 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:06,200 Speaker 8: It is a sacred, sacred declined. So thank you for that, 316 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,359 Speaker 8: And you've got how you really mean that? Yes, I do, 317 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:12,919 Speaker 8: I do, And you've got several rounds of applause there. 318 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,240 Speaker 8: But I'm really interested in the in the line that 319 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 8: the discussion is having already, which is a battle within 320 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 8: the West between conservatism and liberalism. But I don't think 321 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 8: we would be having this discussion at all if it 322 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:30,639 Speaker 8: weren't for some of the positions the US administration has taken. 323 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:33,160 Speaker 8: And let me take one of them, which is Ukraine, 324 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 8: which is obviously at the center of the Munich discussions 325 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 8: in the past couple of years. 326 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:45,640 Speaker 1: This is the Democratic Party go around the world trash America, 327 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 1: tell everybody how terrible America actually is, and get paid 328 00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:58,159 Speaker 1: doing it, and get paid doing it. This is how 329 00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:05,160 Speaker 1: much they hate this country. You don't hate these people enough. 330 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 1: I mean it when I say that, and what I 331 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 1: mean by hate is what they're trying to do to 332 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:13,399 Speaker 1: this country. I don't need to hate Hillary Clinton personally, 333 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:16,440 Speaker 1: but I can certainly hate what she's saying, all right, 334 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 1: I can hate what she's trying to do this country absolutely, 335 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 1: and it's really really sad. It's incredibly sad. It is 336 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 1: incredibly unfortunate that we are at a point where this 337 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,960 Speaker 1: is now what the Democrats are doing.
