WEBVTT - MINNESOTA MURDERS PROVE IT. WITHOUT VIOLENCE, TRUMP IS NOTHING - 6.16.25 0:00:04.795 --> 0:00:25.995 Countdown with Keith Olderman is a production of iHeartRadio. This 0:00:26.115 --> 0:00:33.155 weekend was the reminder that without weapons, Donald Trump is nothing. 0:00:34.435 --> 0:00:37.875 No gun, Trump, who claimed to carry a gun, is nothing. 0:00:38.555 --> 0:00:43.795 No tanks. Trump is nothing, No bombs, no bombs to 0:00:43.875 --> 0:00:47.995 drop on Iran to assuage his sudden and obvious fomo 0:00:49.595 --> 0:00:52.115 of somebody blowing people up and it's not him doing it. 0:00:53.475 --> 0:00:56.795 Without that, Trump is nothing, no threat that if you 0:00:56.875 --> 0:01:00.075 do not obey him, no matter how immoral it is, 0:01:00.195 --> 0:01:02.795 or illogical or illegal his orders are, you will be 0:01:02.915 --> 0:01:06.475 injured or wounded, or kill or at least metaphorically. So. 0:01:07.395 --> 0:01:12.635 Without that, Trump is nothing. No parades, no mindlessly cheering 0:01:12.675 --> 0:01:17.835 military grunts, no sadists cheering for blood. Without them, Trump 0:01:17.955 --> 0:01:23.435 is nothing. Hell, there was a parade and it drew 0:01:23.555 --> 0:01:31.955 less than a minor league hockey game. This was no 0:01:32.155 --> 0:01:36.315 Kings versus no crowds. There was a parade, and Trump 0:01:36.595 --> 0:01:46.075 still was nothing. But most importantly, most tragically, most ominously 0:01:46.155 --> 0:01:50.595 for us and for our future, no religious fanatic, no 0:01:50.915 --> 0:01:55.795 tertiary maga disease infected fascist humanoids driving into a No 0:01:55.995 --> 0:01:58.755 King's protest in Salt Lake City, ending with one dead. 0:01:59.835 --> 0:02:03.915 None of them, dressed as cops to assassinate elected Minnesota 0:02:03.955 --> 0:02:08.795 Democrats in the homes with eleven more on his Wisconsin list, 0:02:09.475 --> 0:02:12.835 doing so on Trump's behalf because they think that will 0:02:12.875 --> 0:02:18.115 serve him, or aid him, or just please him. A 0:02:18.195 --> 0:02:26.475 pro life murderer, Without pro life murderers, Trump is nothing. 0:02:29.355 --> 0:02:32.155 The problem, of course, is there are weapons. There are guns, 0:02:32.195 --> 0:02:34.555 there are tanks, there are bombs, there are threats, there 0:02:34.595 --> 0:02:40.155 are pro life murderers. It is so ingrained in our 0:02:40.195 --> 0:02:42.555 system that it almost sounds stupid to say it aloud 0:02:42.555 --> 0:02:46.995 and question it. For more than two centuries, our government 0:02:47.075 --> 0:02:50.435 had operated, at least in part, at least for long 0:02:50.515 --> 0:02:55.275 stretches on some sense of shared effort, of good faith, 0:02:55.915 --> 0:03:01.075 of right makes might. That is as dead now as 0:03:01.115 --> 0:03:06.275 it was during the Civil War, as bad as anywhere else. 0:03:08.355 --> 0:03:12.235 The fundamental baseline by which the governing related to the 0:03:12.275 --> 0:03:16.115 governed is now entirely in effect. Here, you do what 0:03:16.195 --> 0:03:21.675 we say, or we hurt you. That's what this weekend 0:03:22.315 --> 0:03:26.355 was about. That's what happens when you spend a decade 0:03:26.795 --> 0:03:30.515 introducing into the national consciousness the idea that violence will 0:03:30.595 --> 0:03:35.675 be supported by one political party, or at least one 0:03:35.715 --> 0:03:39.435 political party will have a blind eye turned towards violence. 0:03:40.075 --> 0:03:42.995 That's what happens when you spend five decades telling half 0:03:43.035 --> 0:03:45.435 the people in this country that all the laws and 0:03:45.515 --> 0:03:48.395 all the rules and all the precedents are unfair to 0:03:48.595 --> 0:03:53.835 them and prejudiced against them and will ultimately destroy them, 0:03:53.995 --> 0:03:58.275 and that they, the vast majority, with all of the 0:03:58.315 --> 0:04:03.995 wealth and the power, are actually near death's door because 0:04:03.995 --> 0:04:08.115 that two percent could come and get them. That's what 0:04:08.275 --> 0:04:12.275 happens when one Friday you send in troops and marines 0:04:12.595 --> 0:04:16.595 because your terrorists attacks on southern California aren't leading to 0:04:16.795 --> 0:04:20.475 enough Brown people being disappeared and renditioned or just left 0:04:20.515 --> 0:04:23.395 where they are in mortal dread of it happening to them. 0:04:23.515 --> 0:04:26.235 And then the next Thursday you tackle the brown senator 0:04:26.395 --> 0:04:29.635 from that state because your administration cannot actually handle a 0:04:29.755 --> 0:04:33.555 question and your play actors pretending to fill positions like 0:04:33.835 --> 0:04:37.155 Secretary of Homeland Security have no idea what to do 0:04:38.155 --> 0:04:42.355 other than to shoot or threaten or promise to overthrow 0:04:42.395 --> 0:04:46.475 the elected mayor or governor, or wear a funny hat 0:04:46.995 --> 0:04:49.435 or have a senator from the opposite party thrown to 0:04:49.475 --> 0:04:52.715 the floor. And if your idiot Secretary of Homeland Security 0:04:52.755 --> 0:04:55.195 doesn't know what Habeas Corpus is. Of course she can 0:04:55.235 --> 0:04:58.155 claim nobody knew who the senator was, and she can 0:04:58.195 --> 0:05:04.315 dismiss his existence by simply calling him that man. And 0:05:04.355 --> 0:05:06.435 that's what what happens when two days later, a maga 0:05:06.515 --> 0:05:09.115 religious nut tries to kill all the liberals. He can 0:05:09.595 --> 0:05:13.875 to thwart or shut down the no Kings protests because 0:05:13.875 --> 0:05:18.275 he wants kings, and he can always overrule reality, he 0:05:18.315 --> 0:05:22.075 can always overrule the law, he can always overrule what 0:05:22.195 --> 0:05:26.675 he is right because he has a gun. And then 0:05:26.715 --> 0:05:29.955 an idiot senator from Utah who thinks his combover works 0:05:30.875 --> 0:05:38.235 can call the murderer a Marxist based on nothing and 0:05:38.275 --> 0:05:42.075 get applauded by a strung out, money crazed foreigner who 0:05:42.115 --> 0:05:44.875 happens to own the social media site on which the 0:05:44.915 --> 0:05:48.755 crazy senator from Utah has made his completely slanderous and 0:05:49.395 --> 0:05:55.115 incorrect claim. And then, of course, after it ends, even 0:05:55.155 --> 0:05:57.875 when it ends in humiliation for Trump, whose parade drew 0:05:57.955 --> 0:06:00.115 fewer people than the Fourth of July parade used to 0:06:00.195 --> 0:06:02.155 draw in Hastings on Hudson, New York when I was 0:06:02.195 --> 0:06:04.675 a kid, after it ends, you look at the tear 0:06:04.915 --> 0:06:07.595 in Los Angeles and the blood in Minnesota, and the 0:06:07.635 --> 0:06:10.155 inescapable dread of more to come in every corner of 0:06:10.155 --> 0:06:13.995 this nation. And you say violence has no place in 0:06:14.035 --> 0:06:19.235 our democratic system, as if that has ever been true, 0:06:19.315 --> 0:06:21.995 As if nearly a quarter of our presidents haven't been 0:06:22.035 --> 0:06:24.915 shot and killed or just shot or just nearly shot, 0:06:25.635 --> 0:06:29.435 As if Representative Melissa Hortman and Senator John Hoffman and 0:06:29.475 --> 0:06:32.475 their spouses hadn't been shot two days ago in Minnesota, 0:06:32.555 --> 0:06:37.235 As if Trump himself shot at least shot at not 0:06:37.475 --> 0:06:41.315 a year ago, did not even express sympathy for them, 0:06:41.715 --> 0:06:47.155 just to promise for vengeance against the shooter, As if 0:06:47.195 --> 0:06:51.235 the only legitimacy to the still growing Trump dictatorship wasn't 0:06:51.875 --> 0:06:56.395 the still growing threat behind every move it makes that 0:06:56.515 --> 0:07:01.395 if you do not obey, they will go and get 0:07:01.475 --> 0:07:09.435 one of the weapons without which Donald Trump is nothing. 0:07:37.035 --> 0:07:40.155 There is some small respite this morning, and it has 0:07:40.195 --> 0:07:44.475 nothing to do with weapons. They got the twenty eleven 0:07:44.555 --> 0:07:48.795 Georgia crops report apparently and printed it out or something 0:07:48.835 --> 0:07:51.235 similar to it, and paste it in some pictures of 0:07:51.275 --> 0:07:55.155 Trump or something, and they made it brief, and they 0:07:55.155 --> 0:07:58.995 showed it to him, and maybe they used flash cards 0:07:59.115 --> 0:08:02.195 or finger puppets, and all of a sudden he tacoed 0:08:03.235 --> 0:08:06.795 on the ice. Gestapo roundups of immigrants, at least the 0:08:06.875 --> 0:08:11.515 immigrants in agriculture and hotels and restaurants, because you know, 0:08:13.875 --> 0:08:21.915 mass starvation, while mass starvation later first, mass lower corporate 0:08:21.955 --> 0:08:27.755 profits in agriculture, hotels, and restaurants. The Secretary of Agriculture, 0:08:27.875 --> 0:08:30.515 who is not Julius sugar Baker from Designing Women. She 0:08:30.635 --> 0:08:33.915 just looks like her stunt double rights that, oh no, 0:08:34.035 --> 0:08:37.435 there's been no change in policy about deporting people. She 0:08:37.555 --> 0:08:41.795 and Trump quote have consistently advanced a farmer's first approach, 0:08:42.075 --> 0:08:46.355 recognizing that American households depend upon a stable and legal 0:08:46.475 --> 0:08:52.435 agricultural workforce. Severe disruptions to our food supply would harm Americans. 0:08:52.995 --> 0:08:55.715 It took us decades to get into this mess, and 0:08:55.795 --> 0:08:59.115 we are prioritizing deportations in a way that will get 0:08:59.195 --> 0:09:03.155 us out. All of you people were going to rendition. 0:09:03.315 --> 0:09:07.235 Please harvest those fields first and then get into the 0:09:07.275 --> 0:09:13.435 back of the truck. In other words, the Secretary of Agriculture, 0:09:13.995 --> 0:09:17.035 she saw the twenty eleven Georgia crops report and somebody 0:09:17.035 --> 0:09:20.995 extrapolated it for her. I don't know how many times 0:09:21.355 --> 0:09:25.195 I have cited the twenty eleven Georgia Crops Report. I 0:09:25.235 --> 0:09:30.315 think the first time I saw it was August twenty eleven. 0:09:32.475 --> 0:09:35.395 That state at that point, you're not even over with 0:09:35.635 --> 0:09:39.395 announced eight had announced the year before a strict crackdown 0:09:39.515 --> 0:09:44.595 on undocumented farm workers, back when this was a reasonable 0:09:44.635 --> 0:09:48.595 thing to try or examine, and everybody said, you may 0:09:48.835 --> 0:09:51.795 regret this, and they went, no, we don't think so. 0:09:51.955 --> 0:09:57.635 We're smart. We're Republicans in Georgia. And shockingly enough, after 0:09:57.635 --> 0:10:00.235 they announced that there would be raids and that they 0:10:00.275 --> 0:10:04.635 would deport and arrest all of the migrant farm workers, 0:10:04.995 --> 0:10:10.315 particularly the ones who did not have citizenship or other papers. 0:10:11.595 --> 0:10:15.955 Almost none of the nation's itinerant farm workers went to 0:10:16.035 --> 0:10:18.915 Georgia in twenty eleven. Who the hell could have seen 0:10:18.955 --> 0:10:22.555 that coming. If you go here, we'll arrest you. Nobody 0:10:22.595 --> 0:10:27.275 went so. In the middle of the summer, the state 0:10:27.275 --> 0:10:30.515 Commissioner of Agriculture explained that all the Georgia onions and 0:10:30.555 --> 0:10:33.795 the Georgia watermelons, and the Georgia blueberries and the other 0:10:33.835 --> 0:10:38.275 Georgia produce was rotting in the Georgia fields, and the 0:10:38.315 --> 0:10:41.835 farms were going bankrupt, and all the bribes to get 0:10:41.875 --> 0:10:45.115 all the Georgia residents to go and harvest the crops 0:10:45.235 --> 0:10:49.675 were not working because Georgia residents were too slow, or 0:10:49.715 --> 0:10:56.275 they quit within minutes because the work was too hard. Georgia, 0:10:56.555 --> 0:10:59.995 said the head of agriculture there, a Republican, was at 0:11:00.075 --> 0:11:04.155 least eleven thousand, far more short. They were forty percent 0:11:04.195 --> 0:11:07.755 of what they needed. They were asking for volunteers. They 0:11:07.755 --> 0:11:10.955 were bringing in convicts and promising to let them go 0:11:11.115 --> 0:11:17.515 sooner if they picked the walnuts. The state's agricultural industry 0:11:17.555 --> 0:11:20.555 had already lost seventy five million dollars by the middle 0:11:20.595 --> 0:11:24.635 of twenty eleven just in the spring and summer harvests, 0:11:26.195 --> 0:11:32.595 so that times fifty states and now all of a sudden, 0:11:32.635 --> 0:11:42.395 we are not prioritizing those in agriculture, those in hotels, 0:11:42.795 --> 0:11:47.075 those in restaurants, those without whom the rest of us 0:11:47.555 --> 0:11:53.555 will starve. And the message was you can keep doing this, 0:11:53.555 --> 0:11:56.875 Stephen Miller, but you personally will have to harvest all 0:11:56.955 --> 0:12:02.115 the rude begas west of Denver. This does not mean 0:12:02.195 --> 0:12:04.835 they are suddenly going to pivot back towards humanity. In 0:12:04.875 --> 0:12:08.115 southern California or in the case of kilmar Abrego, Garcia 0:12:08.555 --> 0:12:11.875 or anything else that's already in progress. In point of fact, 0:12:11.915 --> 0:12:14.515 if anything, it looks like they are moving towards something 0:12:14.555 --> 0:12:17.915 that might be supporting of perjury in the Abrego Garcia case, 0:12:17.955 --> 0:12:21.355 something like it. At least Adam Klassfeld reporting that one 0:12:21.395 --> 0:12:23.595 of the new witnesses in the attempt to turn the 0:12:24.075 --> 0:12:26.915 didn't even give him a ticket traffic stop of twenty 0:12:26.955 --> 0:12:31.835 twenty two into life on Devil's Island or something. One 0:12:31.835 --> 0:12:35.315 of the new witnesses is suddenly getting leniency on his 0:12:35.555 --> 0:12:40.675 thirty year prison term. He has been moved to a 0:12:40.715 --> 0:12:46.035 halfway house, and shock of shocks, ICE is suddenly reassessing 0:12:46.355 --> 0:12:52.475 its immigration case against him. The judge in the newest 0:12:52.515 --> 0:12:58.275 case against our Dreyfus Abrego Garcia is also reportedly hesitating 0:12:58.275 --> 0:13:01.755 to grant Abrego Garcia bail, not because he doesn't deserve it, 0:13:02.475 --> 0:13:05.715 but because of ICE's continuing rage and they are acting 0:13:05.835 --> 0:13:08.995 like just to pick something out of a hat. Ketamine 0:13:09.115 --> 0:13:15.515 addicts who just ran out. She's worried about ICE's continuing 0:13:15.595 --> 0:13:18.635 rage and its continuing threats to redisappear this man. The 0:13:18.675 --> 0:13:21.635 moment he has let out of detention, the judge could 0:13:21.715 --> 0:13:25.555 issue a bail ruling as early as today. Here is 0:13:25.595 --> 0:13:29.395 what Trump should have done. He should have offered a 0:13:29.435 --> 0:13:33.515 Brego Garcia a pardon if he said nice things about 0:13:33.595 --> 0:13:39.635 Christy nomes, bangs and dress up outfits, or if a 0:13:39.635 --> 0:13:41.675 Brego Garcia had been willing to stand on a street 0:13:41.715 --> 0:13:44.795 corner in Washington on Saturday night and watch Trump play 0:13:44.795 --> 0:13:48.755 with his tanks and his toy soldiers. At one point, 0:13:49.755 --> 0:13:55.515 presumably before they burned the tape, destroyed any digital machines 0:13:55.555 --> 0:13:59.915 that recorded it, fired everybody who was involved in it. 0:13:59.995 --> 0:14:02.595 At one point, Newsmax reported that there were ten thousand 0:14:02.595 --> 0:14:08.075 people there. The estimates on the No Kings protests nationwide 0:14:08.355 --> 0:14:13.475 organizers claim five million. Elliot Morris of Strength in numbers 0:14:13.475 --> 0:14:18.155 formerly five thirty eight has taken reported individual cities and extrapolated, 0:14:18.475 --> 0:14:23.035 and he had raised his calculation to a total all 0:14:23.235 --> 0:14:26.875 of the protests combined, all of the marches somewhere between 0:14:27.035 --> 0:14:32.155 four million, two hundred thousand and seven million people, about 0:14:32.155 --> 0:14:40.235 two percent of the population back at the event that 0:14:40.395 --> 0:14:42.315 had what would have been a disappointing turnout at the 0:14:42.395 --> 0:14:45.195 nineteen sixty four July Fourth Parade down Farragut Parkway in Hastings, 0:14:45.235 --> 0:14:49.235 on Hudson, New York. Even Stephen Chung's laugh out loud 0:14:49.355 --> 0:14:54.155 lie was only two hundred and fifty thousand, which is 0:14:54.155 --> 0:14:59.835 by itself pathetic. When the Washington Capitals held their parade 0:14:59.835 --> 0:15:03.795 after winning hockey Stanley Cup in twenty eighteen, the DC 0:15:04.035 --> 0:15:08.155 Subway reported that ridership was above average for that day 0:15:08.235 --> 0:15:10.795 by two hundred and twenty eight thousand. So there is 0:15:10.835 --> 0:15:15.315 no doubt that a hockey parade featuring exactly one large 0:15:16.355 --> 0:15:19.475 not too dangerous bowl unless you drop it on your 0:15:19.515 --> 0:15:28.795 foot drew fifty percent, fifty percent more, seventy five percent more, 0:15:29.715 --> 0:15:33.795 ten times what Trump's dog and Pony show did. And 0:15:33.835 --> 0:15:35.475 by the way, a dog and pony show would have 0:15:35.515 --> 0:15:39.635 been way better by any measure. That was a terrible parade, 0:15:39.835 --> 0:15:45.075 just terrible. When he fires Pete, Hegseth, and we all 0:15:45.075 --> 0:15:47.755 wonder was it signal Gate? Was it the drinking? Was 0:15:47.795 --> 0:15:50.835 it general's quitting? Was it Hegseith forgetting to wear pants 0:15:50.835 --> 0:15:54.115 to a cabinet meeting? No, the answer will be he 0:15:54.275 --> 0:15:59.355 was fired because Trump blamed him for the parade. No 0:15:59.475 --> 0:16:03.115 troops marching in step, crowds so quiet you could hear 0:16:03.155 --> 0:16:07.875 the tracks on the World War two tanks creaking and 0:16:07.915 --> 0:16:11.435 making a noise so nails on a blackboard noisy that 0:16:12.515 --> 0:16:23.235 it kept waking Trump up. Since it happened last Thursday, 0:16:23.275 --> 0:16:27.875 I have been thinking almost continuously about the event involving 0:16:28.035 --> 0:16:33.195 Senator Alex Padilla of California at the Christinoum Propaganda Conference 0:16:33.395 --> 0:16:38.155 in southern California. I think it means much more than 0:16:38.835 --> 0:16:42.395 we are even recognizing now. It is obviously a watershed 0:16:42.395 --> 0:16:46.875 moment in the history of the aggressiveness, the aggression, the 0:16:46.995 --> 0:16:52.275 violence inherent in the MAGA disease and its system, but 0:16:52.395 --> 0:16:55.435 it may be even bigger than that. In the last 0:16:55.475 --> 0:16:58.515 few days, it has dawned on me that in the 0:16:58.555 --> 0:17:01.675 interpretation of what happened in that room and in that 0:17:01.755 --> 0:17:06.235 hallway is the last four twenty to fifty years of 0:17:06.275 --> 0:17:11.275 the brainwashing of the American right and the stupider people 0:17:11.315 --> 0:17:14.715 in this country, and the underinformed people in this country, 0:17:14.955 --> 0:17:17.875 and the racist people in this country. And it all 0:17:18.035 --> 0:17:21.675 comes together. And this is not the first example, but 0:17:21.715 --> 0:17:23.515 this may be the best example, and it is the 0:17:23.555 --> 0:17:30.035 most current example of why the far right MAGA, the Trumpists, 0:17:30.355 --> 0:17:34.475 the Tea Party before them, the Republicans before them, why 0:17:34.515 --> 0:17:38.195 they are so quick to be able to pass judgment 0:17:38.275 --> 0:17:41.315 on a situation like this and never let it bother 0:17:41.475 --> 0:17:47.075 their consciences, nor never let facts interrupt their conclusions. There 0:17:47.115 --> 0:17:49.435 have been all sorts of studies that suggest that there 0:17:49.475 --> 0:17:52.875 is actually a difference in the modeling of the brain 0:17:53.395 --> 0:17:57.155 of the conservative versus the liberal of all people. The 0:17:57.195 --> 0:18:01.555 actor Colin Firth once spent money with the BBC to 0:18:01.795 --> 0:18:07.955 conduct actual psychological and I believe some physiological studies on 0:18:07.995 --> 0:18:12.275 whether or not there was processing issues that involved. Some 0:18:12.355 --> 0:18:15.195 people saw this thing this way as a conservative, and 0:18:15.235 --> 0:18:17.955 some people saw the same thing that way as a liberal. 0:18:18.475 --> 0:18:24.075 John Dene's book Conservatives Without Conscience quotes survey and after survey, 0:18:24.115 --> 0:18:28.835 and study after study, and autopsy after autopsy on the 0:18:28.875 --> 0:18:33.155 idea that the brain of the conservative, the authoritarian is 0:18:33.395 --> 0:18:37.835 actually different than that of the more liberal, the more egalitarian, 0:18:37.875 --> 0:18:42.155 the more community based individual. But I'm not talking about that. 0:18:42.195 --> 0:18:47.235 I'm talking about learned, perhaps experience learned from forty to 0:18:47.395 --> 0:18:52.915 fifty years of listening to shit like Rush Limbaugh. And 0:18:52.995 --> 0:18:56.915 here is what this amounts to. If you look at 0:18:56.915 --> 0:18:59.555 the entirety of the event, and you have the entirety 0:18:59.595 --> 0:19:03.875 of the background that Senator Padilla provided in the hours 0:19:04.075 --> 0:19:10.475 after the event involving Secretary Nome, Secretary Garden Nome, the 0:19:10.595 --> 0:19:14.235 dog murderer, nonme, the I would not vouch that she 0:19:14.315 --> 0:19:18.555 could pass a sanity or a drug test. Gnome. And 0:19:18.675 --> 0:19:23.795 you analyzed the whole timeline, it's pretty clear what happened. 0:19:24.315 --> 0:19:27.715 And there is one flaw in the Padia story, and 0:19:27.795 --> 0:19:30.475 we would recognize it as liberals and let me go 0:19:30.555 --> 0:19:32.955 through it quickly to make my point in terms of 0:19:33.235 --> 0:19:37.275 how the other groups of people in this country don't 0:19:37.515 --> 0:19:42.595 torture themselves over these details. We know he was in 0:19:42.635 --> 0:19:45.955 that building to get a briefing from Homeland Security because 0:19:45.995 --> 0:19:48.675 he had not been able to get anybody from Homeland 0:19:48.675 --> 0:19:52.755 Security on the phone or by email in the preceding 0:19:52.795 --> 0:19:57.715 week since Trump started his terrorist attacks on southern California, 0:19:57.755 --> 0:20:01.635 since Trump started a civil war or attempted to in 0:20:01.715 --> 0:20:04.475 which he would use the military against civilians on this 0:20:04.475 --> 0:20:08.075 s streets of Los Angeles, he had not Padia, that is, 0:20:08.115 --> 0:20:10.115 been able to get in touch with anybody. He'd tried 0:20:10.115 --> 0:20:12.155 to get Secretary nom and he happened to be in 0:20:12.195 --> 0:20:14.275 a building where he was going to get a briefing 0:20:14.915 --> 0:20:17.235 from a military commander about what the hell they were 0:20:17.275 --> 0:20:19.635 doing there, and hopefully what the hell they were not 0:20:20.115 --> 0:20:24.275 going to be doing there. Somehow, either he knew in 0:20:24.355 --> 0:20:27.395 advance or he found out as he was there that 0:20:27.595 --> 0:20:30.915 NOME was conducting this as I called it, propaganda conference 0:20:31.275 --> 0:20:33.915 in a room in that building that they would be passing. 0:20:34.235 --> 0:20:38.275 Now Padilla does not wander in off the street for this. 0:20:38.555 --> 0:20:42.955 He is being escorted by I believe military people, by 0:20:43.075 --> 0:20:46.635 the official greeters in this situation, whoever they are. And 0:20:46.715 --> 0:20:49.555 he says, we have some time before this meeting. Can 0:20:49.595 --> 0:20:51.875 I pop in and listen to what Noame says. I 0:20:51.955 --> 0:20:54.315 can't get any other answers from her. Maybe she's going 0:20:54.315 --> 0:20:57.875 to address my questions. He goes in, and course, if 0:20:57.915 --> 0:21:00.515 you heard any of the NOME press conference, she's out 0:21:00.515 --> 0:21:07.315 of her mind. She is either in full Trump servicing 0:21:08.075 --> 0:21:12.275 in terms of selling each one of these hallucinatory talking 0:21:12.315 --> 0:21:16.035 of points about saving Los Angeles from the people elected 0:21:16.315 --> 0:21:17.995 to run it who are running it into the ground, 0:21:18.155 --> 0:21:22.155 essentially offering a coup by the Department of Homeland Security 0:21:22.155 --> 0:21:25.035 against the Governor of California, the Mayor of Los Angeles, 0:21:25.075 --> 0:21:27.875 and anybody who gets in their way, and at some 0:21:28.115 --> 0:21:34.115 point Padilla says, I have a question. Now. He knows 0:21:34.195 --> 0:21:36.355 that the people who have just escorted him into that 0:21:36.475 --> 0:21:39.075 room know that he is Senator Alex Padia. But he's 0:21:39.075 --> 0:21:42.875 not wearing a big shirt that says I'm a senator. 0:21:43.235 --> 0:21:48.875 He's not wearing a giant gold chain that says senator guy. 0:21:48.915 --> 0:21:53.235 He's not wearing some sort of big id And he 0:21:53.275 --> 0:21:58.035 has not spent ninety percent of his time on Fox News. 0:21:59.075 --> 0:22:02.195 He's not Pam Bondi, who for a long time I 0:22:02.235 --> 0:22:05.115 thought was actually hosting the nine o'clock hour on Fox 0:22:05.155 --> 0:22:09.475 News rather than simply appearing on it every night. He's 0:22:09.515 --> 0:22:13.875 not wearing something that instantly identifies him to the people who, 0:22:13.995 --> 0:22:18.875 in this equation actually matter as much as Christinome, Corey Lewandowski, 0:22:19.115 --> 0:22:24.275 her advisor, advisor, whoever else was there on behalf of 0:22:24.315 --> 0:22:27.915 the Gestapo. They are not as important as the people 0:22:27.955 --> 0:22:31.035 who are right there, standing next to Alex Padilla as 0:22:31.035 --> 0:22:34.715 he comes into that room. Who are the militarized members 0:22:34.755 --> 0:22:37.475 of the FBI who have been pre chosen to be 0:22:37.675 --> 0:22:42.155 on board with the political message. They are political policemen. 0:22:42.355 --> 0:22:45.715 In effect, they are not just law enforcements. They are 0:22:46.835 --> 0:22:50.795 maga enforcement. They are what we have feared. And at 0:22:50.835 --> 0:22:54.435 this point in June of a presidency, of a new presidency, 0:22:54.595 --> 0:22:57.035 they are already in place. They don't know who the 0:22:57.075 --> 0:23:00.675 hell that is. That's the one flaw in this equation. 0:23:01.355 --> 0:23:06.875 Everything that happens after they decid that this man must 0:23:06.955 --> 0:23:12.675 be thrown to the floor is the fault of the FBI. 0:23:13.235 --> 0:23:17.355 There should be mass firings, suspensions, prosecutions. Padia should sue. 0:23:17.475 --> 0:23:19.395 There should be people who spend the rest of their 0:23:19.435 --> 0:23:22.475 lives answering for this in court. The men who took 0:23:22.515 --> 0:23:24.875 him out of that room, who dragged him, the men 0:23:24.915 --> 0:23:26.995 who threw him to the ground, the men who said 0:23:26.995 --> 0:23:29.475 that the FBI has the rights here and you cannot 0:23:29.515 --> 0:23:32.355 film this, All of them in jail. If we could 0:23:32.355 --> 0:23:36.555 get them there, it probably won't happen. Bankrupt them, wait 0:23:36.635 --> 0:23:41.515 to make Trump pardon them. But there is one flaw 0:23:41.635 --> 0:23:46.755 in that equation. Padia assumed people knew he was Padia. 0:23:47.075 --> 0:23:50.755 That's the only part of this that is even remotely 0:23:50.835 --> 0:23:53.955 his fault. And I would say, on the scale of 0:23:54.155 --> 0:23:59.555 apportioning responsibility for the entire event, on a scale of 0:23:59.595 --> 0:24:02.555 one to one hundred and ninety eight, is Christy Nome 0:24:02.595 --> 0:24:06.675 not responding to calls the entirety of the Trump administration 0:24:07.075 --> 0:24:12.155 attacking southern California. The obviously the security goons and the 0:24:12.155 --> 0:24:16.035 Gestapo members and the FBI MAGA, and it's just one 0:24:16.075 --> 0:24:21.755 group now, it's b IIMGA. Ninety eight percent is them 0:24:21.835 --> 0:24:24.355 and maybe two percent, maybe one and a half percent 0:24:24.435 --> 0:24:28.435 is Padilla, simply because he assumed, having identify himself to 0:24:28.475 --> 0:24:31.515 the people with him, that when push came to shove, 0:24:31.835 --> 0:24:34.755 literally one of them would say no, that Senator Alex Padilla, 0:24:34.915 --> 0:24:38.515 leave him alone, and they didn't, leading to a, if 0:24:38.555 --> 0:24:41.275 you want, conspiracy theory that they set him up for 0:24:41.315 --> 0:24:43.475 this in some occasional though it doesn't seem to me 0:24:43.835 --> 0:24:46.315 like something this intricate could be worked out by these 0:24:46.475 --> 0:24:50.115 MAGA idiots. It might have been a conspiracy of opportunity 0:24:50.155 --> 0:24:53.195 where they realized he was getting heated and there might 0:24:53.235 --> 0:24:56.115 be a good photo op for the right wing here 0:24:56.195 --> 0:25:00.515 in which, oh, guess what, the Hispanic senator from California 0:25:00.755 --> 0:25:07.195 is thrown to the floor while defending his fellow foreigners. 0:25:07.915 --> 0:25:10.795 In any event, we can now then analyze what happens 0:25:10.835 --> 0:25:14.555 in the hallways and the conflicting instructions from these goons 0:25:15.155 --> 0:25:18.755 and his Padia's attempt to respond to them, and then 0:25:18.795 --> 0:25:22.555 as Padia added the idea that suddenly Corey Lewandowski appears 0:25:22.555 --> 0:25:25.755 and goes let him go, let him go right now, 0:25:27.115 --> 0:25:30.395 Of all people, Corey Lewandowski, possibly because he has seen 0:25:30.435 --> 0:25:33.595 the consequences of what happens when you man handle somebody 0:25:33.955 --> 0:25:36.275 in a hallway and how that can follow you for 0:25:36.315 --> 0:25:38.435 a few years, at least he had the presence of 0:25:38.475 --> 0:25:40.875 mind to say, we don't need this, or he may 0:25:40.915 --> 0:25:43.155 have said we've already got all we needed on video. 0:25:44.155 --> 0:25:46.875 So my point in going to such length to go 0:25:46.915 --> 0:25:51.155 into ten minutes worth of just detail on a line 0:25:51.155 --> 0:25:54.195 by line basis of what happened and where Alex Padilla 0:25:54.355 --> 0:25:56.635 might not have done exactly what he would have done 0:25:56.835 --> 0:26:00.435 had he planned this out, had this been perhaps a stunt, 0:26:00.715 --> 0:26:05.635 like many politicians do often to great effect of stunts 0:26:06.075 --> 0:26:09.075 that have been for the benefit of mankind. If you 0:26:09.115 --> 0:26:12.835 would like to stretch the definition just slightly, the emancipation 0:26:13.115 --> 0:26:16.555 proclamation was a stunt. The timing of it certainly was 0:26:16.595 --> 0:26:22.875 a stunt. In any event, this is the liberal interpretation 0:26:23.035 --> 0:26:25.955 of what Padilla did, and you can see the knots 0:26:26.155 --> 0:26:30.475 I can turn myself into while stating that Alex Padilla 0:26:30.635 --> 0:26:33.235 is ninety eight and a half percent right, I am 0:26:33.275 --> 0:26:35.955 still sitting there looking at that other one and a 0:26:35.995 --> 0:26:39.075 half percent saying, well, see here's here's the window that 0:26:39.115 --> 0:26:41.395 you left open for them. And now I'll give you 0:26:41.435 --> 0:26:47.035 the mag of viewpoint on this. What happened? What happened? 0:26:47.555 --> 0:26:51.715 Senator goes in, yells at our secretary, beautiful Christynome, and 0:26:51.755 --> 0:26:55.235 then gets thrown to the floor. It was a terrorist attack. 0:26:55.315 --> 0:27:00.075 He tried to kill her? Or more simply, what happened? 0:27:00.155 --> 0:27:03.395 What happened? A senator went in and attacked our beautiful 0:27:03.475 --> 0:27:08.235 Christy Noome. Okay, whose fault is it? Is it Biden's fault? 0:27:08.795 --> 0:27:12.235 Is it? Is it George Soros's fault? Let's decide quickly 0:27:12.715 --> 0:27:15.635 and then we'll work backwards. It's obviously his fault. He 0:27:15.715 --> 0:27:18.035 obviously tried to attack her. He may have tried to 0:27:18.155 --> 0:27:21.555 kill her. Now let's fill in the facts. What's on 0:27:21.595 --> 0:27:23.635 the tape? Oh, okay, we're going to ignore that fact. 0:27:23.795 --> 0:27:26.395 We don't have to sow what he says. He's Alex Padia. 0:27:26.475 --> 0:27:28.955 Who the hell knows who Alex Padia is? How many 0:27:28.995 --> 0:27:34.275 alex Padias are there in southern California. They have defeated 0:27:34.715 --> 0:27:39.115 the scientific method. What is it five hundred, six hundred 0:27:39.155 --> 0:27:41.915 years since Francis Bacon said no, the way to solve 0:27:41.955 --> 0:27:44.115 most problems is to figure out what the f just 0:27:44.195 --> 0:27:47.675 happened and then try to figure out why. No, they 0:27:47.675 --> 0:27:50.195 have erase that go to the conclusion, what do you 0:27:50.275 --> 0:27:52.635 want the reply to this to be? What do you 0:27:52.675 --> 0:27:55.195 want the public perception of an event like that to be? 0:27:55.875 --> 0:28:03.835 Senator attacks Christy Nome, Senator barges in, senator confronts Christine No, 0:28:04.235 --> 0:28:10.435 senator violates law, Senator terror. Whatever answer you want, you 0:28:10.555 --> 0:28:15.155 reach it first and then work backwards. And there is 0:28:15.235 --> 0:28:19.715 no one and a half percent acknowledgment that perhaps perhaps 0:28:19.755 --> 0:28:23.035 there was an overreaction on the part of the Gestapo. 0:28:24.035 --> 0:28:30.475 Perhaps there would be a reaction that you're the senator 0:28:31.675 --> 0:28:34.155
