1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:02,880
Speaker 1: In this episode of news World, We've got to stay

2
00:00:02,880 --> 00:00:05,840
Speaker 1: in the street and we've got to We've got to

3
00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:09,840
Speaker 1: demand justice, and I want that. We're going to get

4
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:15,440
Speaker 1: oh friendly and say guilty, guilty, guilty, and if we don't,

5
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:17,639
Speaker 1: we cannot go away. We got to stay on the

6
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:21,239
Speaker 1: street and we've got to get more at it. We've

7
00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:24,760
Speaker 1: got to get more contemptational. We've got to make sure

8
00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:27,960
Speaker 1: that they didn't they know that we need this. I'm crying.

9
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,960
Speaker 1: The verdict is the right, verdict overwhelming in my view.

10
00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:36,880
Speaker 1: Very Count one unintentional second degree murder while committing a felony.

11
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:40,920
Speaker 1: Find the defendant guilty. Count two, third degree murder, perpetrating

12
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:44,160
Speaker 1: and eminently dangerous act. Find the defendant guilty. Count three,

13
00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:48,920
Speaker 1: second degree manslaughter, culpable negligence creating an unreasonable risk. Find

14
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 1: the defendant guilty. Thank you, George Floyd for sacrificing your

15
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,720
Speaker 1: life for justice, for being there to fall out to

16
00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:59,600
Speaker 1: your mom. I can't read, but because of you, your

17
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:04,080
Speaker 1: name will always be synonymous with justice, and now we

18
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:07,360
Speaker 1: have to make sure justice for Dale. In the sentencing,

19
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 1: it was a murder in the full light of day

20
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 1: and ripped the blinders off for the whole world to

21
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 1: see their systemic razins. It is a dame on our

22
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:22,240
Speaker 1: nation's soul, the knee on the neck of justice for

23
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 1: black Americans to found fear and trauma, to pay the

24
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 1: exhaustion and black and brown America's experienced every single day.

25
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 1: I'm gonna chat about the Democrats, anti America, pro criminal,

26
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:46,960
Speaker 1: anti police policies and biases, and you have to see

27
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 1: them all wrapped together. I thought the decision yesterday was

28
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 1: the system working. We had a policeman who had done

29
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 1: something to harm an American citizen. The policeman had been arrested,

30
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 1: he had been given a fair trial, just like every

31
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 1: other American deserves. The jury had found him guilty on

32
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,520
Speaker 1: all three counts, and I thought that it was actually

33
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 1: proof that there's no systemic racism, since you have a

34
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:21,800
Speaker 1: judge and a jury finding a white policeman guilty of

35
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:25,959
Speaker 1: killing a black man. So the opposite of systemic racism,

36
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 1: it is the justice for the individual above their racial

37
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,520
Speaker 1: or ethnic background. And I thought it was a wonderful

38
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 1: moment for a pro American president to proclaim that this

39
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 1: is what the world should see that at a moment

40
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 1: when the leading opposition figure in Russia is being systematically

41
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:51,400
Speaker 1: destroyed by Putin. At a moment when Jijinping is presiding

42
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:56,080
Speaker 1: over a tutolitarian state that imprisons hundreds of thousands and

43
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,920
Speaker 1: engages in genocide. At a moment when the Cuban dictatorship

44
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 1: continues it's over a half century policy of crushing the

45
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:08,799
Speaker 1: human spirit. At a moment when the socialist in Venezuela,

46
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 1: having deliberately packed the courts and left democracy behind, run

47
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 1: a thugocracy in which their thugs are the police, and

48
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 1: you can't call the police of a crime in Venezuela

49
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:23,079
Speaker 1: because they are the criminals. At that moment, there was

50
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 1: an opportunity for a pro American president and pro American

51
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 1: vice president to stand up and say, this is why

52
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 1: people come to America, and again, think about the whole

53
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 1: insanity of this institutional racism argument. How come there are

54
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 1: well over a million people who come here legally every year,

55
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: many of them non white. How come there are hundreds

56
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 1: of thousands already this year who have come from Latin

57
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: American elsewhere, most of whom are non white. And do

58
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 1: you think they're so stupid that they said, let me

59
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 1: look around the planet and find someplace with institutional racism,

60
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 1: so I can go and be discriminated against. Now, this

61
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 1: is just a sign of the depth of the anti American,

62
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 1: pro criminal, anti police pathology of the modern Democratic Party.

63
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,400
Speaker 1: So I really want to take this apart step by

64
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 1: step because I think it is so important that we

65
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 1: draw a light in the sand. I had gotten deeply

66
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 1: involved a few days ago because Congressman Rashida Talib but

67
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:34,719
Speaker 1: Detroit had come out for abolishing the police and closing

68
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 1: the prisons, and Detroit it had a twenty three percent

69
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:41,040
Speaker 1: increase in murders over the last year, about a fifty

70
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 1: three percent increase in non fatal shootings, and in the

71
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 1: middle of that kind of explosion of violence, her theory was, Gee,

72
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:53,720
Speaker 1: if only we released all the murderers, rapist, bank robbers, killers,

73
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 1: carjackers from the prisons, while at the same time eliminating

74
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:02,600
Speaker 1: the police, Detroit would send the become a paradise of unpoliced,

75
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:06,240
Speaker 1: nice people drifting around chatting with each other. This was

76
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 1: not a function of radical leftism or of wokeism. This

77
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 1: is a function of insanity. It's a little bit like

78
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 1: teaching somebody that bunny rabbits really like lions. And that

79
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,839
Speaker 1: the lion king is the documentary, not a fantasy, and

80
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:21,840
Speaker 1: so why don't you drop your bunny rabbit off with

81
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:24,159
Speaker 1: the lions so the lion can maybe sit them. Of

82
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,039
Speaker 1: course there would be no bunny rabbit around when you

83
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,080
Speaker 1: came back, but still, if you were a good left

84
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 1: wing Democrat, you would figure that was just a sign

85
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 1: that you hadn't put in enough bunny rabbits. So I'd

86
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 1: started to get getet involved this whole question of Rashida

87
00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 1: Talib and what she had proposed, which I thought was

88
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 1: so guaranteed to get Americans killed that a deserve being

89
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,279
Speaker 1: taken head on. And then of course we had the

90
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:55,400
Speaker 1: spectacle once again of Maxine Waters flying in from California

91
00:05:55,440 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 1: and ironically asking for a police escort while she wanted

92
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 1: to make an anti police speech. I mean, you know,

93
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 1: you have to really give these people some credit for sure, hutzbah,

94
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,800
Speaker 1: because they are willing on a regular basis to go

95
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 1: out and do things that anybody would any sense of

96
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:17,360
Speaker 1: decency wouldn't even imagine. Now. Waters comments coming after several

97
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,839
Speaker 1: days of rioting, coming at a time when the Minnesota

98
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,919
Speaker 1: National Guard had been called up, and in fact shortly

99
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:27,159
Speaker 1: after her speech, two members of the Minnesota National Guard

100
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 1: sustained minor injuries as somebody shot at their vehicle. In

101
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:37,320
Speaker 1: that context, the fact is that when you looked at

102
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 1: all this, Waters just couldn't help herself. So she comes

103
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 1: and she makes a very incendiary speech. We are looking

104
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 1: for a guilty verdict. We are looking for a guilty verdict,

105
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:55,160
Speaker 1: and we are looking to see if all of the

106
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:59,040
Speaker 1: fun that took place and has been taken place after

107
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,920
Speaker 1: what happened to God Floyd, if nothing does not happen,

108
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:08,000
Speaker 1: then we'll know that we've got to not only stay

109
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:11,200
Speaker 1: in the stry, but we have got to fight for justice.

110
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:15,559
Speaker 1: But I am very higstool and I hope that we're

111
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 1: going to get verdict that to say guilty, guilty, guilty,

112
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 1: And if we don't, we got we cannot go away.

113
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,320
Speaker 1: We got to stay on the street and we've got

114
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:30,240
Speaker 1: to get more active. We've got to get more confrontational.

115
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 1: We've got to make sure that they they know that

116
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:37,239
Speaker 1: we need business. No notice, she's not asking for justice.

117
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:40,240
Speaker 1: She never once thinks about it, as you know, I

118
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 1: want an honest trial, I want an honest jury. No,

119
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 1: she says she's looking for a guilty verdict. And the

120
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 1: reason this matters so much is this transitions from the

121
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:54,000
Speaker 1: rule of law to the rule of politicians. And it

122
00:07:54,160 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 1: is really dangerous to have politicians decide. As the President

123
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 1: of the United States himself said he had been praying

124
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 1: for a guilty verdict. Well, the presidented States ought to

125
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 1: be praying for justice. He ought to be praying for

126
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 1: a jury, that's honest. He ought to be praying for

127
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:16,680
Speaker 1: a fair trial. But for him to arrogate, as the

128
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 1: leader of the entire country, that he's going to interfere,

129
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 1: that he's going to suggest, Oh, what would he have

130
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 1: said if they had not been a guilty verdict? Would

131
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 1: then it have been an open attack on the court system.

132
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,040
Speaker 1: And so you have to stop and look. When we

133
00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 1: say that Waters was confrontational, we do it in part

134
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 1: based in our own experience. If you go back and

135
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 1: you look at what Waters said in nineteen ninety two

136
00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 1: during the riots in Los Angeles, where she basically took

137
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 1: a pro riot or position, or if you look at

138
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:53,839
Speaker 1: what Waters had been saying about going after Trump's supporters

139
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:57,560
Speaker 1: going into the restaurants, and by the way, Black Lives

140
00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:01,680
Speaker 1: Matter did go into a new York restaurants after the verdict.

141
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 1: The Waters had said, go into the restaurants, go into

142
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 1: the gas stations, basically drive them out of society. Let's

143
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 1: make sure we show up wherever we have to show up.

144
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 1: And if you see anybody from that cabinet in a restaurant,

145
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:20,840
Speaker 1: in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get

146
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:24,600
Speaker 1: out and you get a cloud, and you go back

147
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 1: on them and you tell them they're welcome you anymore anywhere. Now,

148
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,440
Speaker 1: this is a congressman who's senior enough that she chairs

149
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,679
Speaker 1: the Financial Services Committee, and it tells you a lot

150
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 1: about the Democrats that they seem to be comfortable having

151
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 1: a demagogue of this quality leading one of their committees.

152
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 1: In fact, so comfortable that when the Republican leader, Kevin

153
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,960
Speaker 1: McCarthy moved to condemn her, which would have stripped her

154
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:56,440
Speaker 1: of her chairmanship, the Democrats were unanimous. Every single Democrat

155
00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:00,720
Speaker 1: in the House voted with Maxine Waters and voted to

156
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:05,319
Speaker 1: protect Maxine Waters despite what she had done. Now, how

157
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,160
Speaker 1: bad was what she had done? Not just telling as

158
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 1: a Republican partisan, But let's look at some evidence that

159
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:15,959
Speaker 1: I thought was frankly quite astounding. When she made these

160
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:21,600
Speaker 1: incendiary comments in Minnesota. The judge came back and just

161
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:26,959
Speaker 1: publicly assaulted her. Listen to an American judge who was

162
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 1: so infuriated by a politician who is basically threatening mob

163
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:37,160
Speaker 1: rule that he publicly speaks out and warns that she

164
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:41,000
Speaker 1: actually could have so tainted the environment that the defendant

165
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,040
Speaker 1: might well have an appeal just based on what she said.

166
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,480
Speaker 1: I'll give you the Kier Swoon and Waters me have

167
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 1: given you something an appeal that may result in this

168
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 1: whole trial being overturned. This goes back to what I've

169
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 1: been saying from the beginning. I wish elected officials would

170
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:59,200
Speaker 1: stop talking about this case, especially in a manner that

171
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:01,959
Speaker 1: is disrespect to the rule of law and to the

172
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 1: judicial branch in our function. I think if they want

173
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 1: to give their opinions, they should do so any respectful

174
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:11,920
Speaker 1: and in a manner that is consistent with their oath

175
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:34,520
Speaker 1: to the Constitution. Now, as usual, the Biden administration operates

176
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 1: on the humpty dumpty rule. The words mean whatever they

177
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 1: want them to mean. So when Speaker Pelosi defends Waters,

178
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:44,959
Speaker 1: she sets the stage for the White House to defend Waters.

179
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 1: And by the way, it's pretty insulting to compare the

180
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 1: Civil Rights movement, which was actually moving against segregationist governments,

181
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 1: all of them democrat by the way in the South,

182
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 1: and the great agony of the fifties and sixties in

183
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 1: early seventies, as the Civil Rights movement in fact did

184
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:08,960
Speaker 1: move America towards a much less racial society and a

185
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: much less polarized society, and did help lead the way

186
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:17,400
Speaker 1: to end legal segregation. It's insulting to have that legacy

187
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:19,960
Speaker 1: in the legacy of Reverend Martin Luther King and the

188
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:22,560
Speaker 1: legacy of John Lewis and the legacy of Andy Young,

189
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:27,240
Speaker 1: turned into an excuse for going into a riot torn

190
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:31,880
Speaker 1: area and urging confrontation, which I believe is the opposite

191
00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:36,840
Speaker 1: of what Reverend King would have done. So when the President,

192
00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 1: who as usual can't quite help himself, decides that he's

193
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,560
Speaker 1: going to get in the middle of this once again,

194
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 1: Jensaki finds herself clarifying everything and explaining to us that

195
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:49,960
Speaker 1: whatever she really said, she didn't say. But I just

196
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 1: want to play this one passage where Saki is asked

197
00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:56,440
Speaker 1: by reporters first about what Kevin McCarthy had said, and

198
00:12:56,520 --> 00:13:01,840
Speaker 1: then about Water's own statements and about the comments Congressman

199
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 1: Waters the House nor Leier Kevin McCarthy is accusing her

200
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,439
Speaker 1: of inciting violence. And then you have the judge yesterday

201
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:11,960
Speaker 1: calling her words apparrent and saying that she was being

202
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,320
Speaker 1: disrespectful of the rule of law. I just want to

203
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 1: be very clear here, does the White House condone the

204
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 1: congresswoman's comments. Well, first, I would say again that the

205
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 1: congresswoman clarified her own comments. And what I can do

206
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,640
Speaker 1: is speak for the president's view, which is that it's

207
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:30,480
Speaker 1: important to provide a space and an opportunity for peaceful protest.

208
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,600
Speaker 1: But protesting should be peaceful. That's something he has consistently

209
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,560
Speaker 1: advocated for and he will regardless of the outcome of

210
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 1: the trial. She was calling on some protesters to perhaps

211
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:46,240
Speaker 1: get more confrontation, and she's had additional comments since then, right, yes, okay,

212
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:52,079
Speaker 1: she has which about additional verification. White House believe that

213
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 1: those kinds of comments are helpful in the middle of

214
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:58,720
Speaker 1: this trial that everybody knows could lead to more violence

215
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 1: and unrest. Well again, and I can speak to what

216
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:04,080
Speaker 1: the President's point of view is, which is that it's

217
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,400
Speaker 1: important to provide an opportunity for peaceful protest. That's what

218
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 1: he has continued to advocate for. What he's consistently advocated for.

219
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 1: But I would also say that when somebody provides a

220
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:16,840
Speaker 1: clarification for their comments, that's an important context to include

221
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:21,240
Speaker 1: in anybody's reporting. So when you look at that, you

222
00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:28,400
Speaker 1: have the presidential Press secretary basically defending speaking out in

223
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:31,240
Speaker 1: the middle of a trial, politicians speaking out in the

224
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 1: middle of the trial. Then you have the press secretary

225
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:38,440
Speaker 1: having to explain what the president really meant when the

226
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:41,800
Speaker 1: President said, I'm praying the verdict is the right verdict,

227
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:45,200
Speaker 1: and that means guilty. I'm praying the verdict is the

228
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:49,480
Speaker 1: right verdict. It's overwhelming in my view. I wouldn't say

229
00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:53,280
Speaker 1: that the jury was the question. Now not hear me

230
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:57,680
Speaker 1: say that, So they ask her what precisely did the

231
00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:01,280
Speaker 1: president mean? Just a few minutes ago bloffice, the President

232
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 1: spoke about the trial of the autosports Jerakchob and he says, quote,

233
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 1: I'm praying the work is the right rick he says,

234
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,560
Speaker 1: I think it's will quote overwhelming in my view. So

235
00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 1: a couple of questions on this. We could start there.

236
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:18,000
Speaker 1: What precisely did the president mean, what is overwhelming? And

237
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:20,000
Speaker 1: does this mean the president thinks the police officer should

238
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 1: be comigger on a counsel. Well, the President has clearly

239
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,400
Speaker 1: been watching the trial closely, as many Americans have been.

240
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:29,560
Speaker 1: He was also moved by he has moved. He was

241
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 1: moved by his conversations with the family yesterday. He knows

242
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 1: the family, and as somebody who has been impacted by

243
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 1: grief himself, that was a large part of their conversation,

244
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 1: the conversation he had just yesterday. As he also noted,

245
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 1: the jury is sequestered, which is why he spoke to this.

246
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 1: But I will but expect that he will weigh in

247
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:53,640
Speaker 1: more further once there is a verdict, and I'm not

248
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,400
Speaker 1: going to provide additional analysis on what he meant. He

249
00:15:56,480 --> 00:16:01,720
Speaker 1: did call for the light verdict, though I never appropriate

250
00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 1: any type of characterization before the jury has to say. Again,

251
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 1: we're going to wait for the jury to come to

252
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:13,200
Speaker 1: their conclusion, and that is when he will have more

253
00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 1: extensive remarks about the outcome. Basically, she's ignoring what President

254
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:25,640
Speaker 1: Biden said. Now, Harris as usual is more radical than Biden,

255
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:29,960
Speaker 1: and Harris of course wants to immediately go to America's

256
00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:34,680
Speaker 1: long history of systemic racism. I have to say, living

257
00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:39,360
Speaker 1: in a country which has elected an African American president twice,

258
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 1: a country which, in Harris his own case, has elected

259
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:48,760
Speaker 1: her to the Attorney general California, to the United States Senate,

260
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 1: and now to be Vice President United States. That doesn't

261
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:55,640
Speaker 1: strike me as systemic racism. That strikes me as a

262
00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 1: country which is trying to find ways to bring us together.

263
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: But that doesn't stop her. I want you to listen

264
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,840
Speaker 1: to what Harris said on the evening of April twentieth,

265
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 1: after the verdict, and imagine that you're the Chinese communist

266
00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:12,520
Speaker 1: propagandists trying to figure out ways to communicate to the

267
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:15,600
Speaker 1: world that America is an evil place and that it

268
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:22,159
Speaker 1: is in fact, very very destructive. Good evening. First, I

269
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,080
Speaker 1: want to thank the jury for their service, and I

270
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:29,800
Speaker 1: want to thank mister Floyd's family for your steadfadness. Today

271
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:34,760
Speaker 1: we feel a sigh of relief. Still it cannot take

272
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:39,160
Speaker 1: away the pain. A measure of justice isn't the same

273
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:44,720
Speaker 1: as equal justice. This verdict brings us a step closer,

274
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 1: and the fact is we still have work to do.

275
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:55,479
Speaker 1: We still must reform the system. Last summer, together with

276
00:17:55,560 --> 00:18:00,320
Speaker 1: Senator Corey Booker and Representative Karen bass I introduce the

277
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:04,880
Speaker 1: George Floyd Justice and Policing Act. This bill would hold

278
00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:10,200
Speaker 1: law enforcement accountable and help build trust between law enforcement

279
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:16,680
Speaker 1: and our communities. This bill is part of George Floyd's legacy.

280
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:20,719
Speaker 1: The President and I will continue to urge the Senate

281
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:26,640
Speaker 1: to pass this legislation, not as a panacea for every problem,

282
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:33,280
Speaker 1: but as a start. This work is long overdue. America

283
00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:38,359
Speaker 1: has a long history of systemic racism. Black Americans, and

284
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:42,800
Speaker 1: black men in particular, have been treated throughout the course

285
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 1: of our history as less than human. Black men are

286
00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:56,280
Speaker 1: fathers and brothers, and sons and uncles and grandfathers and

287
00:18:56,560 --> 00:19:03,840
Speaker 1: friends and neighbors. Their lives must be valued in our

288
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:09,280
Speaker 1: education system, in our health care system, in our housing system,

289
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:15,440
Speaker 1: in our economic system, in our criminal justice system, in

290
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:22,720
Speaker 1: our nation full stop. Because of smartphones, so many Americans

291
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 1: have now seen the racial injustice that Black Americans have

292
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 1: known for generations, the racial injustice that we have fought

293
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:37,679
Speaker 1: for generations, that my parents protested in the nineteen sixties,

294
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 1: that millions of US Americans of every race protested last summer.

295
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:49,920
Speaker 1: Here's the truth about racial injustice. It is not just

296
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 1: a black America problem or a people of color problem.

297
00:19:56,560 --> 00:20:01,439
Speaker 1: It is a problem for every American. It is keeping

298
00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:06,640
Speaker 1: us from fulfilling the promise of liberty and justice for all.

299
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:11,600
Speaker 1: When I listened to Harris, having looked carefully at what

300
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,679
Speaker 1: the Chinese had said in Alaska at the meeting, where

301
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:18,000
Speaker 1: they basically said, don't talk to us about Tibet, or

302
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,880
Speaker 1: about the Weakers, or about Hong Kong. Look at all

303
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,480
Speaker 1: the evil, terrible, bad things you're doing in the United States.

304
00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:26,960
Speaker 1: And isn't it said that you can't correct all your

305
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:30,679
Speaker 1: problems of racial injustice and so forth, it occurred to

306
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:33,679
Speaker 1: me that it would be a great skit to have

307
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:39,200
Speaker 1: a group of Chinese propagandists getting together worried about becoming unemployed,

308
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:42,800
Speaker 1: because they couldn't possibly think of anything more anti American

309
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:46,080
Speaker 1: than the American president and vice president. And so all

310
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:47,800
Speaker 1: they really have to do is tape them and play

311
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:51,080
Speaker 1: it back again and again. So what you have here

312
00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:56,480
Speaker 1: is one a passion for saying something which I believe

313
00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 1: is totally false, and that is, this is not a

314
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:02,159
Speaker 1: systemically racist country. This is a country which is working

315
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:06,000
Speaker 1: very hard to integrate every American of every background, and

316
00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:08,720
Speaker 1: by the way, to integrate millions of people from around

317
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:12,400
Speaker 1: the world. It is sort of crazy that you have

318
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:16,960
Speaker 1: Biden and Harris passionately defending illegal immigration while they explained

319
00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:19,960
Speaker 1: that the illegal immigrants are rushing to a country which

320
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:24,160
Speaker 1: is institutionally racist. I mean, there's something so inherently contradictory

321
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:28,440
Speaker 1: that it's astonishing. And yet listen to President Biden's comments.

322
00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:35,280
Speaker 1: A jury in Minnesota found former Minneapolis police officer Derek

323
00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:41,879
Speaker 1: Chauvin guilty on all counts. And the murder of George

324
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:47,120
Speaker 1: Floyd's last May. It was a murder in the full

325
00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:51,240
Speaker 1: light of day and ripped the blinders off for the

326
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:55,520
Speaker 1: whole world to see the systemic racism the Vice President

327
00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:59,720
Speaker 1: just referred to. There are systemic racis. It's a stain

328
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 1: on our nation's soul, the knee on the neck of

329
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:10,280
Speaker 1: justice for Black Americans, profound fear and trauma, the pain,

330
00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:16,719
Speaker 1: the exhaustion, and black and brown America's experienced every single day.

331
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:22,120
Speaker 1: The murder George Floyd launched the summer of protest we

332
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 1: hadn't seen since the Civil rights here in the sixties,

333
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:30,760
Speaker 1: Protests that unified people of every race and generation in

334
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:37,359
Speaker 1: peace and with purpose to say enough enough, enough of

335
00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:44,960
Speaker 1: the senseless killings today. Today's verdict is a step forward.

336
00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 1: I just spoke of the Governor of Minnesota to thank

337
00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:53,200
Speaker 1: me for the close work with his team. I also

338
00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:59,920
Speaker 1: spoke with George Floyd's family again, remarkable family of extraordinary curry.

339
00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:08,080
Speaker 1: Nothing can ever bring their brother, their father back, but

340
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:11,359
Speaker 1: this can be a giant step forward in the march

341
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 1: toward justice in America. Let's also be clear that such

342
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:23,960
Speaker 1: a verdict is also much too rare for so many people.

343
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:28,160
Speaker 1: It seems like it took a unique and extraordinary convergence

344
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:33,240
Speaker 1: of factors. A brave young woman with a smartphone camera,

345
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:40,480
Speaker 1: a crowd that was traumatized, traumatized witnesses, a murder that

346
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:45,879
Speaker 1: lasts almost ten minutes in broad daylight, for ultimately the

347
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:52,320
Speaker 1: whole world to see officers standing up and testifying against

348
00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:57,439
Speaker 1: the fellow officer instead of just closing ranks, which should

349
00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 1: be commended. A jury who heard the evidence carried out

350
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:07,159
Speaker 1: their civic duty in the midst of an extraordinary moment

351
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:13,919
Speaker 1: under extraordinary pressure. For so many, it feels like it

352
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:18,480
Speaker 1: took all of that for the judicial system to deliver

353
00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:25,679
Speaker 1: a just just basic accountability. We saw how traumatic and exhausting.

354
00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:29,960
Speaker 1: Just watching the trial was for so many people. Think

355
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,880
Speaker 1: about it, those of your listening, think about how traumatic

356
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,080
Speaker 1: was for you. You weren't there, You didn't know any

357
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:41,359
Speaker 1: of the people, but it was difficult, especially for the witnesses.

358
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 1: Why do to to relive that day? It's a trauma on

359
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:51,600
Speaker 1: top of the fear so many people of color lived

360
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,840
Speaker 1: with every day when they go to sleep at night

361
00:24:56,119 --> 00:25:00,960
Speaker 1: and pray for the safety of themselves and their loved ones. Again,

362
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:05,479
Speaker 1: as he saw in this trial from the fellow police

363
00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:09,639
Speaker 1: officers who testified, most men and women aware of the

364
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 1: badge serve their communities honorably, but those few who fail

365
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:18,640
Speaker 1: to meet that standard must be held accountable, and they

366
00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 1: were today. One was No one should be above the law,

367
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:29,120
Speaker 1: and today's verdict sends that message. But it's not enough.

368
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 1: We can't stop here in order to deliver real change

369
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:38,159
Speaker 1: and reform. We can, and we must do more to

370
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:40,960
Speaker 1: reduce the likelihood that tragedy like this will ever happen

371
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:45,240
Speaker 1: and occur again, To ensure the black and brown people

372
00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:51,040
Speaker 1: are anyone so they don't fear the interactions with law enforcement,

373
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 1: that they don't have to wake up knowing that they

374
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:56,520
Speaker 1: can lose their very life. In the course of just

375
00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 1: living their life. They don't have to worry about whether

376
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,640
Speaker 1: their sons or daughters will come home after a grocery

377
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,800
Speaker 1: store run, or just walking down the street, or driving

378
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,440
Speaker 1: their car, or playing in the park, or just sleeping

379
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:15,200
Speaker 1: at home. And this takes acknowledging and confronting head on

380
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:21,439
Speaker 1: systemic racism and the racial disparities that existent policing and

381
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:43,360
Speaker 1: in our criminal justice system. More broadly, faced with what

382
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 1: Maxine Waters have done in Minnesota, and faced with the

383
00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:54,680
Speaker 1: whole process of the Democratic Party favoring criminals and opposing

384
00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:58,800
Speaker 1: the police, trying to defund the police, trying to close

385
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,560
Speaker 1: down prisons, and doing so in the middle of what

386
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:07,439
Speaker 1: has been described as the largest increase in murder in

387
00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:11,000
Speaker 1: one year in American history. So the whole effect of

388
00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:15,960
Speaker 1: the left has been to intimidate the police, weaken them numerically,

389
00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:19,359
Speaker 1: create a sense of caution by pursue all the policemen

390
00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:22,280
Speaker 1: in the country, and at the same time embolden the

391
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 1: criminals and lead to an environment in which the innocent

392
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:28,680
Speaker 1: are being preyed upon by evil people who then are

393
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:32,920
Speaker 1: in effect protected by the Democratic Party. That's the context

394
00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:37,320
Speaker 1: in which I was responding to Rashida Talib's tweet which

395
00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:41,119
Speaker 1: said the following quote, it was not an accident. Policing

396
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:45,400
Speaker 1: in our country is inherently and intentionally racist. Dantee Wright

397
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:48,480
Speaker 1: was met with cogression and violence. I am done with

398
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:53,440
Speaker 1: those who condone government funded murder, No more policing, incarceration,

399
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:58,439
Speaker 1: and militarization. It can't be reformed. Well, if there's no

400
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:03,359
Speaker 1: more policing and there's no more incarceration, exactly what does

401
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:06,560
Speaker 1: Congress want to leave think will happen? For example, in

402
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:11,560
Speaker 1: Michigan in twenty nineteen, the total prison population was thirty

403
00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:15,720
Speaker 1: eight thousand, twenty eight thousand of those who were being

404
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 1: held for what Michigan calls assaulting offenses, which includes assault, kidnapping, manslaughter, stalking, rape,

405
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:29,360
Speaker 1: armed robbery, on armed robbery, carjacking, and terrorism. So if

406
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:32,800
Speaker 1: you thought that to leave actually meant anything, And when

407
00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:36,359
Speaker 1: she calls for abolishing the prisons, she's calling for releasing

408
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:41,920
Speaker 1: back into Michigan life at a time of dramatically rising crime,

409
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 1: twenty eight thousand, seven hundred and fifty nine people who

410
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:49,760
Speaker 1: had been convicted of an assaultive offense, which includes own

411
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:57,479
Speaker 1: of peats who understand how serious this is. Assault, kidnapping, manslaughter, stalking, rape,

412
00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:03,800
Speaker 1: armed robbery, on armed robbery, carjacking, and terrorism violations. Fourteen

413
00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 1: percent of the state prisoners were serving time for murder,

414
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:12,280
Speaker 1: thirteen percent we're serving time for rape for sexual assault.

415
00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 1: Those are national numbers. So nationally there are one hundred

416
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:20,280
Speaker 1: and seventeen thousand, seven hundred state prisoners serving time for

417
00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 1: murder and one hundred and sixty two thousand and seven

418
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:28,480
Speaker 1: hundred serving time for rape or sexual assault. Now, what

419
00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:31,640
Speaker 1: is to leave things going to happen? The combined group

420
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:34,320
Speaker 1: comes to something like two hundred and seventy nine thousand,

421
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:37,240
Speaker 1: two hundred and eighty thousand people. What does she think

422
00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:40,040
Speaker 1: will happen if you put that kind of population of

423
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 1: violent people back on the streets. The final irony of

424
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:48,160
Speaker 1: all this, in the proof of the utter total hypocritical demagoguery,

425
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 1: is the fact that all of these people who are

426
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:55,480
Speaker 1: for defunding the police are for funding private security. The

427
00:29:55,600 --> 00:30:01,840
Speaker 1: most flagrant is Alexandria Acacio Cortez, who said, quote, defunding

428
00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:06,280
Speaker 1: police means defunding police. It does not mean budget tricks

429
00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:09,440
Speaker 1: or funny math. It does not mean moving school police

430
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:12,520
Speaker 1: officers from the New York Police Department budget to the

431
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 1: Department of Education's budget said the exact same police remains

432
00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:19,520
Speaker 1: in schools, So she's hard line. Defunding the police means

433
00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:22,280
Speaker 1: defunding the police when it comes to her personal safety,

434
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:26,400
Speaker 1: how hard line issue. Well. In the first quarter January

435
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 1: February March, she spent thirty seven thousand dollars on security

436
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:35,840
Speaker 1: from her campaign funds. That included twenty four thousand to

437
00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:39,800
Speaker 1: three Bridges New York for security, nine thousand dollars to

438
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:44,200
Speaker 1: say Bone Collective for security consultants, eight hundred and forty

439
00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:47,360
Speaker 1: nine dollars to three Bridges New York for security, and

440
00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:50,880
Speaker 1: two payments of fifteen hundred and fifty two dollars to

441
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:54,960
Speaker 1: twenty four to seven Security and Investigation that was for

442
00:30:55,000 --> 00:31:00,560
Speaker 1: a security detail in Houston. Ilhant Omar, meanwhile, who tweeted

443
00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 1: about defunding the police, quote, we lose people in the

444
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 1: hands of police. It is not a slogan but a

445
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:09,920
Speaker 1: policy demand and centering. The demand for equitable investments and

446
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:14,160
Speaker 1: budgets for committees across the country gets us progress and

447
00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:18,520
Speaker 1: safety now. According to FEC reports and January for Brain March,

448
00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 1: Ilhan spent three thousand, two hundred and three dollars on security.

449
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:26,760
Speaker 1: Corey Bush, a freshman Democrat who's pushed to defund the police,

450
00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:30,480
Speaker 1: tweeted quote, it's not a slogan, it's a mandate for

451
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:34,480
Speaker 1: keeping our people alive. Defund the police. However, he doesn't

452
00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:37,080
Speaker 1: want to defund his police because in the first three

453
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:40,880
Speaker 1: months of the year he spent thirty five thousand dollars

454
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:46,040
Speaker 1: on security, including a thousand dollars to whole Armor Executive

455
00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 1: Protection and then another five hundred thirty dollars to whole

456
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:51,920
Speaker 1: Armor Executive Protection. I mean, I just love this concept.

457
00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,800
Speaker 1: Here's this person who's rushing off to give an anti

458
00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:59,480
Speaker 1: police speech while protected by whole Armor executive protection. Ayana

459
00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:04,000
Speaker 1: Pressley tweeted quote, police don't belong in our schools. Social

460
00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:08,640
Speaker 1: workers and nurses do. Now, she's so confident of safety

461
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 1: that in the first three months of the year she

462
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:14,720
Speaker 1: spent four thousand dollars on security. My only point about

463
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:18,520
Speaker 1: all of this is that you have people who, when

464
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:22,400
Speaker 1: it's about them, understand the value of security and police.

465
00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:28,280
Speaker 1: When it's about you, they're willing to risk releasing murderers, robbers, rapists, carjackers,

466
00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 1: and hoping you survive in a city with no police.

467
00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:35,680
Speaker 1: I think it's very important that we have a national debate.

468
00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:38,360
Speaker 1: Crime is going to get worse, not better. We've been

469
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:41,200
Speaker 1: through this before. In fact, I just went and got

470
00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:45,720
Speaker 1: a copy for apache The Bronx, which is a Paul

471
00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:49,360
Speaker 1: Newman movie made in nineteen eighty one about a precinct

472
00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:52,960
Speaker 1: that was under siege in the Bronx, because I was

473
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 1: going back and looking at Clint Eastwood and his movies

474
00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 1: about police in the nineteen seventies, and we're right back

475
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,560
Speaker 1: in the same side. You have left wing policies, with

476
00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:05,880
Speaker 1: left wing prosecutors, with left wing mayors, virtually all of

477
00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:09,560
Speaker 1: them Democrats. They believe in a series of policies which

478
00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:12,680
Speaker 1: are crazy, they do not work, and they get people killed.

479
00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:15,520
Speaker 1: And you have a totally one sided vision of what's

480
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:18,400
Speaker 1: going on. And I'm going to continue doing research because

481
00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 1: I think when you realize how many people ten and

482
00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:23,520
Speaker 1: under have been killed in the US this year, you'll

483
00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 1: be horrified at the indifference of the Democratic Party to

484
00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 1: the kind of carnage that their policies are creating. Finally,

485
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:35,160
Speaker 1: I think every American who loves this country and who

486
00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:41,760
Speaker 1: understands that having our national leadership smear America so that

487
00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:45,640
Speaker 1: every anti American element in the world can use our

488
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:48,800
Speaker 1: own president and our own vice president to condemn us.

489
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:52,520
Speaker 1: Has to speak out and has to say this is

490
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:55,880
Speaker 1: totally unacceptable. And if the President of States can't say

491
00:33:55,920 --> 00:34:00,280
Speaker 1: good things about America, just shut up. But don't keep

492
00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:03,200
Speaker 1: giving the Chinese and the Russians ammunition to try to

493
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:04,920
Speaker 1: convince the entire rest of the world that we're a

494
00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 1: bad country. Although I must say it doesn't seem to

495
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:10,680
Speaker 1: have been working, because millions of people want to come

496
00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:14,200
Speaker 1: to the US. There's no great migration to China, there's

497
00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:17,600
Speaker 1: no great migration to Russia, there's no huge rush to

498
00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 1: get into Iran. Somehow, it's only this country that President

499
00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:24,279
Speaker 1: Biden and Vice President Harris can't find it in their

500
00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,720
Speaker 1: hearts to say anything good about. It's only this country,

501
00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:30,719
Speaker 1: which still is a symbol of freedom, a symbol of

502
00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:33,240
Speaker 1: opportunity and a chance for people to have a better

503
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:36,319
Speaker 1: life for their children and their futures. I believe in

504
00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:39,040
Speaker 1: the end, truth will win. I believe in the end

505
00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:42,160
Speaker 1: people have more common sense than the politicians, and I

506
00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:44,720
Speaker 1: think that we really need to be prepared to stand

507
00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:47,680
Speaker 1: up and make the case that these policies, these aren't

508
00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:50,880
Speaker 1: random accidents. This isn't a thunderstorm or a tornado or

509
00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:55,200
Speaker 1: a hurricane. These are policy driven disasters created by a

510
00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:59,359
Speaker 1: left wing ideology which dominates the Democratic Party and which

511
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:03,600
Speaker 1: is cons instantly now producing more death, more violence. The

512
00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:06,560
Speaker 1: largest increase in murders in American history in one year

513
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:10,480
Speaker 1: was literally shaped by this, and we're continuing to have

514
00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:14,520
Speaker 1: an increase because we're doing almost everything wrong. If your

515
00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:17,760
Speaker 1: goal is to save innocent people and to eliminate crime,

516
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:20,880
Speaker 1: so I will continue to report on this, and sadly,

517
00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:23,520
Speaker 1: I am confident that they will continue to give us

518
00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:29,520
Speaker 1: more and more ammunition to share with you. Neutral is
