1:38
Welcome to my Young Church. Jacob Anika is staring with
1:40
you guys. We decided that we're going to do
1:43
a show today. Mhmm. We have discussion
1:45
earlier and did I tell you, oh, great
1:47
show. I believe we show a lot of times. This
1:49
one just
1:50
Asia. How's that for
1:52
honest? The most ridiculously honest
1:55
show in America. There
1:55
will be spicy takes though.
1:57
Of course. Hot cakes and
1:59
hotcakes all night long.
2:03
Alright. Anyways, let's get started. Well,
2:06
this is a story that just
2:08
reinforces what I covered last
2:10
Wednesday in regard to the Federal Reserve
2:13
having zero interest in regulating the bank
2:15
system. So let's talk about it. whole
2:19
tranche of banks has
2:21
been under regulated for
2:23
five years
2:24
now. AND PEOPLE ARE VERY CONCERNED
2:26
ABOUT WHEN YOU LIST THE HOOD, WHAT'S UNDER
2:28
THE HOOD, SINCE THE REGULATORS CLEARLY
2:31
HAVE NOT BEEN ON TOP OF THEIR JOB.
2:34
You lift the hood and you find a Gilotti, and
2:36
that's what senator Elizabeth Warren is concerned
2:38
about while she was speaking at
2:41
ON CBC NEWS FACE THE NATION, OF COURSE.
2:43
SHE BROUGHT UP THE SPECIFIC ISSUES IN REGARD
2:46
TO THE REGULATION OF
2:48
MIDSIZE BANKS while also
2:50
talking about the lack of
2:52
regulation and oversight coming from the Federal
2:55
Reserve. In fact, your new piece in the New
2:57
York Times There is some evidence
2:59
that the Federal Reserve knew that Silicon
3:01
Valley Bank in particular was in trouble
3:04
for over a year before its collapse
3:06
but did very little about it.
3:08
Now in twenty twenty one, a Fed
3:10
review of the growing bank found
3:12
serious weaknesses in how it was handling key
3:15
risks. Supervisors at the Federal Reserve
3:17
Bank of San Francisco, which oversaw Silicon
3:19
Valley Bank, issued six citations.
3:22
Those warnings known as matters
3:25
requiring attention and matters requiring
3:27
immediate attention, flagged that the firm
3:29
was doing a bad job of ensuring that
3:32
it would have enough easy to tap cash
3:34
on hand in the event of trouble.
3:36
Now in the lead up to the twenty eighteen
3:38
deregulation of midsize banks,
3:42
the argument was that we'll just we
3:44
don't need government oversight. We can just
3:46
rely on the Fed to do the oversight. But
3:48
at the time, Jérôme Powell,
3:50
the Chair of the Federal Reserve, made it clear that
3:52
he actually had no interest in regulation
3:55
or oversight. In fact, wanted to pull back
3:58
on regulation and oversight. So
4:00
Congress did the deregulation knowing
4:02
full well that there would be no cops
4:05
on the beat when it came to miss management
4:07
of funds at mid sized banks
4:09
like Silicon Valley Bank. And the
4:11
bank, of course, didn't fix its vulnerabilities even
4:13
after being notified by the Federal Reserve. I mean,
4:15
they sent got a few letters. And they're like, yeah,
4:17
whatever. By July of twenty twenty
4:20
two, Silicon Valley Bank was in full supervisory
4:22
review. Getting a more careful
4:24
look and was ultimately rated deficient
4:27
for governance and controls. It
4:29
was placed under of restrictions that prevented
4:31
it from growing through acquisitions. So
4:33
whoa. Whoa. You're not
4:35
allowed to merge with another bank, very
4:37
not body. You've been very, very bad, but
4:39
that's pretty much it.
4:41
Yeah. So look, guys. It's just
4:43
time to tell you how the game's actually
4:45
played. So when they're deregulating,
4:48
everybody says, oh, no. Everything's
4:51
gonna be fine, fine, So
4:53
you remember they deregulated banks
4:56
under two hundred and fifty billion dollars.
4:58
Again, the Silicon Valley Bank is in
5:00
that group, and they said everything's gonna be totally fine. Everything's
5:02
gone. No nonsense. No nothing. Everything's
5:04
fine. Then when something inevitably
5:07
blows up and, like, the Bernie Sanders,
5:09
Elizabeth Warren, us. It's the Noomi
5:11
parent, etcetera. We're right all along. The
5:13
deregulation was a disaster, and it led
5:15
to a collapse. Right? They
5:17
then turn around and go. Well, I mean,
5:20
everybody saw this coming. And they look at the
5:22
regulators. They had all these
5:24
warnings and stuff. And so, well,
5:27
Then you just think, wait a minute. First,
5:29
you said nobody can see it coming.
5:31
Then you saw it, you say that everybody can see it
5:33
coming. So what's the game that's being played here?
5:35
The game is when you do an article
5:38
like this at the New York Times after
5:40
the collapse, you're trying to
5:42
show that it's an exception to the rule.
5:44
Oh, it turns out with Silicon Valley
5:47
Bank, not the other banks, not
5:49
deregulation or but a Silicon Valley
5:51
Bank, they had a couch above me,
5:53
bunch of notices, and the Federal Reserve
5:55
was about to work on it. But hey, look, let's hold them
5:57
accountable. They did not quickly enough, etcetera.
6:00
No, it's not an exception. If deregulation
6:02
screws things up almost every time
6:05
for these colossal
6:05
companies. Yeah. Let me jump in there real quick because
6:08
let's also just be absolutely
6:10
clear about the fact that we
6:12
elect members of Congress and the
6:14
whole point of government. The whole point of
6:17
government. I think what everyone can agree
6:19
on is to keep people
6:21
safe, safe from corporate
6:23
greed, safe from risky maneuvers
6:25
by banks, say from any
6:28
type of national security threat, we
6:30
didn't elect members of the Federal Reserve.
6:33
The Federal Reserve was not originally
6:35
created to regulate the banking
6:37
system. So, like, the idea
6:40
that, oh, Congress can just
6:42
deregulate? And Federal
6:44
Reserve chair Jerome Powell
6:46
who is a big fan of deregulation and
6:49
loves to loosen, you know, any type of
6:52
restrictions when it comes to the bank. He said, idea
6:54
that that guy is gonna do the appropriate oversight
6:56
is ridiculous, and they knew that. They knew
6:58
that. The banks knew that. Which
7:00
is why they went along with this whole
7:02
charade in the first
7:03
place. Okay. Can I just prove it with it? Be
7:05
on a shadow of a doubt here. So do you
7:07
know the San Francisco border reserve federal
7:11
reserve board in San Francisco is
7:14
supposed to regulate Silicon Valley Bank because
7:16
it's in its region. Okay? You wanna
7:18
know who was on the board of
7:20
the San Francisco Federal Reserve?
7:22
Greg Becker, the CEO of
7:25
Silicon Valley. It's amazing. It's
7:27
amazing. So he chose not
7:29
to regulate himself. Interesting. Of course.
7:32
Of course. Right? But, like,
7:34
when progressives point out, hey,
7:37
these bankers regulate
7:39
themselves through the Federal Reserve. No
7:41
one got elected. This is absurd. And
7:43
forget that no one got elected. These
7:45
are literally the banks on the
7:47
boards, including the major banks
7:50
in New York, are on the board of the Federal
7:52
Reserve overall. In New York, the most
7:54
important one. Right? It's
7:56
absurd that they would regulate. Of course,
7:58
they allow for maximum risk to
8:00
make maximum profit in the short term.
8:03
If it blows up later, that's your goddamn problem.
8:05
Not their problem. They already took the money home. Now
8:07
do you see that in the press all the time. Of
8:09
course not, because this is look, the next
8:11
time there's a conversation about regulation and deregulation.
8:13
Come back to the Young Turks. We'll show you
8:15
everybody will tell you, oh, no. There won't
8:17
be any problems at all when we deregulate.
8:20
And after it blows up, oh, nobody could have seen
8:22
this coming. But actually, this one was everybody could
8:24
have seen coming because it was the exception. It's
8:27
never the exception. It's definitely the rule.
8:29
All these folks that are in giant corporate
8:32
interests are lying to
8:33
you. That's just the reality of it.
8:54
Now, just to buttress Shank's point,
8:56
in fact, reinforce this point, why don't we go
8:58
to the conversation that senator Warren had
9:00
with Margaret Brennan over at Face the Nation
9:03
because that conversation was
9:05
incredible. It really was. How dismissing she
9:07
was, and I'm talking about the host here,
9:10
of the impact that deregulation had
9:13
on the collapse of Silicon Valley
9:14
Bank. So let's take a look at one portion of that conversation
9:17
right now. The reason that
9:19
I'm calling right now for changes
9:21
in the Fed in its regulatory approach
9:24
and changes in commerce so that we
9:26
roll back the authorization
9:29
to lighten those regulations. Well, I I
9:31
know there's just you on the way to the regulation.
9:35
You're talking about a tweak in twenty eighteen
9:37
to Dodd Frank. And I know Barney Frank, one of
9:39
the authors of that original regulations is
9:41
a dispute with you in regard to what actually
9:44
happened here. But I I wanna talk about
9:46
the now, call it a twink. Well,
9:48
senator, though, I I wanna ask you about what Congress
9:51
can do now because it would be
9:53
up to Congress to lift the
9:56
FDIC
9:57
insurance levels for those deposits
9:59
above two hundred and fifty thousand
10:01
dollars. Now get a
10:03
load of that deflection. Right? So Elizabeth
10:05
Warren's there to talk about the impact
10:08
that twenty eighteen deregulation had
10:10
and how she wants to reverse that
10:12
in the very least. Margaret Brennan, of
10:14
course, brings up Barney Frank, who was
10:16
one of the original Architects of
10:18
the incredibly weak sauce Dodd Frank
10:20
Regulations following the two thousand eight collapse.
10:23
What Brennan failed to mention is
10:25
what Barney Frank has been up to since
10:27
his career in, you know,
10:29
congress ended. Where did it? What what is
10:31
he doing now, Jake? Oh, that's right. He's a lobbyist.
10:34
Who works on behalf of the banking sector. Weird.
10:37
Oh my god. So Weird. Weird that
10:39
you wouldn't mention that Margaret Brennan Now
10:41
it's not just that, guys. I now that's two
10:44
interviews in a row, I was seeing a Margaret Brown. One with
10:46
Bernie Sanders, one with Elizabeth Warren, where
10:48
she was so dismissive of the
10:50
guests. So I I haven't watched all
10:52
of our interview. So fair is fair. But
10:54
I'm gonna keep an eye on it because my
10:56
guess is and we'll see if it's true or not. When
10:58
corporate Democrats and corporate Republicans are on there,
11:00
she's going to be incredibly genteel
11:02
and polite. Right? But Warren comes
11:05
in here and goes, hey, maybe we should regulate the banks.
11:07
She said, whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Cut her off like twelve
11:09
times in six minutes. It was incredible to
11:11
watch. And she's so dismissive
11:13
with progressive. She has this like the
11:16
classic mainstream media sneer like, oh,
11:19
guess what regulation? There's a tweak
11:21
of a there's no big deal. Hey. Hey. Focus
11:23
now. Okay? What are we doing now?
11:26
And it's like she wasn't driving towards
11:28
how do we make sure that this doesn't happen again?
11:30
She's just like, chasing
11:32
the news of the day with,
11:34
like, hey, what further tweaks are we gonna
11:36
make? There's never a conversation in mainstream
11:39
media about, hey, are we doing this all wrong?
11:41
Is it right to have the bankers sit on the
11:43
board of the institution
11:45
that's supposed to regulate them? Is that insane?
11:48
Right? Because you cannot ask those questions
11:51
on CBS. If you ask that question, you're
11:53
gonna be in a world of trouble. All
11:55
these corporate interests protect their own.
11:57
And it's kinda disgusting to watch. Anyways,
12:00
look guys, bottom line is they
12:02
would blame everyone in Silicon
12:04
Valley
12:05
Bank. They will pretend its exception
12:07
and they won't fix a goddamn thing. That's my opinion.
12:10
Go ahead. They're
12:10
not gonna fix anything. So let's just be clear about that.
12:12
So anyone who is nervous about where their money
12:14
is, I mean,
12:16
Look, if you're under the FDIC insured
12:18
limit of two hundred fifty thousand dollars,
12:21
you're gonna be fine. That money is guaranteed
12:24
by the federal government. Anything above
12:26
that, you're playing with fire considering
12:28
I mean, this is gonna keep happening.
12:30
If we're gonna keep these mid sized banks
12:32
deregulated and they're if there's no cop on
12:34
the beat checking to make sure, and not
12:36
just checking to make sure that there isn't
12:39
mismanagement, but actually enforce seeing
12:42
actionable items to ensure that they
12:44
write their rums. This is gonna keep happening. Right?
12:46
Which is why Margaret Brennan's focus in that interview
12:49
wasn't on the regulations. It was on,
12:51
should the should the FDIC increase the
12:53
cap for depositor? Should they increase the
12:55
cap? How much should they increase the cap by? How
12:58
about we fix the system? So
13:00
it doesn't kind of get to point where the FDIC
13:02
has to come in and make all these depositors
13:05
whole because of mismanagement and risks
13:07
taken by the
13:07
banks. How about that? So this I
13:09
agree a hundred percent. And this requires it's hasn't
13:12
been a nuance, but understanding the game that's being
13:14
played. So do I agree that
13:16
the caps should be raised from two hundred and fifty
13:18
thousand? Yes, I do. Okay? Is that one
13:20
of things they're working at? Yes. By the way, is
13:22
that likely to pass? Some sort of increase
13:24
in the cap. Yes. That's a rare thing that
13:26
is likely to pass. Why? Because
13:29
not only does it protect the depositors and the citizens,
13:31
that's why I agree with it. But
13:33
it mainly also protects the banks. So
13:36
then you don't have to regulate the banks because
13:38
you allow the government to be even a
13:40
bigger backstop to the banks GOHEAD
13:42
BANKS TAKE EVEN BIGGER RISKS SO YOU CAN MAKE EVEN
13:44
BIGGER PROFITS. AND IF YOU COLAPS,
13:46
DON'T WORRY THE GOVERNMENT IS GOING TO COVER
13:48
A MILLION dollars ARE five million or ten million
13:51
as Elizabeth Warren talked about when
13:53
the banks collapse. The better
13:55
route, you could do that, and think you should do that.
13:57
But the better route on top
13:59
of that is also regulate so
14:01
they don't take insane risk. Right.
14:04
But they're never gonna do that because that's
14:06
money and money that's funneled to
14:08
corrupt
14:08
politicians. And that's exactly what Warren
14:10
said later in the interview
14:13
where she's like, yes. I agree with exactly
14:15
what you said. I agree with raising the FBI
14:17
see insured limit. However,
14:19
we need regulations, but it's
14:21
very clear that there is much of an appetite
14:23
for that type of conversation on Face
14:26
the Nation, which is a shame. Finally, if
14:29
you're not as concerned about your
14:31
mid sized bank collapsing as you should
14:33
be in my opinion, You should be concerned
14:35
about your data in the very least because apparently,
14:37
let's go to graphic five here. According to person
14:39
familiar with the matter, executives at the firm,
14:42
Silicon Valley Bank, were told of cybersecurity
14:44
problems both by internal employees and
14:46
by the Fed, but ignore the concerns
14:49
because they don't care. Anything
14:51
that might cut into their
14:53
profits? They're not gonna do anything
14:55
about it unless they're forced to do something about
14:58
it. And that's the thing they're not forced
14:59
to. I'm gonna say one last time, guys, it isn't
15:02
about greed. Everybody always says, oh, they got
15:04
greedy. No, greed is built
15:06
into the system. You'll have
15:08
to maximize profit. So if those
15:10
guys weren't greedy and took excessive
15:12
risk and didn't ignore the Fed and the internal
15:16
folks tell them there's massive problems, they
15:18
would have been fired and replaced by
15:21
other guys who would have been maximum
15:23
greedy because that's what the corporation demands.
15:26
Look, I'm in business. Everyone
15:28
in business demands a maximum
15:31
profit. You can't just say, hey,
15:33
you know what? I'm only gonna make a little bit of profit.
15:35
That's why the government has to be the cop on the
15:37
B that says, no, you're not allowed to do that
15:39
because that'll endanger the whole economy. It'll
15:41
endanger the citizens. But whenever you
15:43
say that, you get a roar back
15:46
both by corrupt politicians and mainstream
15:48
media saying, no. Oh, deregulation's
15:51
gonna make us richer. I mean, it'll be
15:53
perfectly fine. It'll be totally safe for
15:54
everyone. No one could see it coming. Well,
15:58
why don't we take a break? When we come back,
16:00
we'll have a monster segment dedicated
16:03
to the possibility of Donald Trump getting
16:05
did his incitement to more violence
16:08
and how some in the right
16:10
wing have actually decided not to
16:12
take the bait when it comes to incitement
16:14
of violence that more coming
16:16
up. Don't miss it.
16:35
Alright. Back on t by t. Jake and Anna
16:37
with you guys. Also, Chris Birch. Remember
16:39
on YouTube, gifted five memberships
16:42
for other folks. So Chris, a bit of
16:44
an American hero as usual today. We appreciate
16:47
CASPER?
16:48
WELL,
16:48
LET'S GET INTO THIS POSSIBLE
16:50
ARREST OF DONALD TRUMP. IT'S A BIG STORY.
16:53
LET'S DO IT.
16:54
Enforcement said they're ready for any possible
16:57
unrest if that does happen. And speaking of that,
16:59
you know, we have this video that we just got moments
17:01
ago. This is the New York Police Department.
17:03
They're installed AND SECURITY CAMERAS ON LIGHT
17:05
POST THAT IS OUTSIDE THE MINHAD IN
17:07
CRIMINAL COURTHOUSE.
17:10
AUTHORITIES ARE PREPARING FOR POTENTIAL
17:12
outbreaks of violence following news
17:15
that former president Donald Trump
17:17
might get arrested and indicted
17:20
in connection to the hush money payments
17:22
that were paid to adult actress, Stormy
17:25
Daniels, and the lead up to the twenty sixteen
17:27
presidential election. Now when
17:29
Trump heard of the news, he began
17:31
riling up his supporters and encouraging
17:33
them to not only get rowdy and violent
17:35
on his behalf, but to protest,
17:38
and he did that in multiple posts on social,
17:40
truth social. We'll get to those comments in
17:42
just a second. But let's back up and
17:44
try to kind of figure
17:47
out what this potential arrest could be
17:49
about, when it's likely to happen,
17:51
if it happens, and whether
17:53
this is an open and shut case. Now at
17:55
the center of this case is the one hundred and thirty
17:57
thousand dollars that Donald Trump paid
17:59
adult entertainer Stormy Daniels during
18:01
the twenty sixteen presidential election. They
18:04
had met each other back in two thousand
18:06
six when Melania Trump was pregnant
18:09
and engaged in a sexual
18:11
rendezvous. NOW SHE
18:14
HAD SHARED HER STORY ON sixty
18:16
MINUTES AND WE KNEW THE DETAILS ABOUT THAT.
18:18
BUT APPARENTLY TRUMP DECIDED
18:20
TO pay her a
18:23
hundred thirty thousand dollars to kind of
18:25
keep that story under wraps, so it wouldn't
18:27
hurt him during the presidential election. At least that's
18:29
the theory. Now if
18:32
Trump is eventually indicted, it
18:35
will be for falsifying business records
18:37
in the first degree, which by the way, that alone
18:39
is just a misdemeanor. But it becomes
18:42
a felony if he falsified
18:44
records in order to commit another
18:46
crime. In order to elevate it to a
18:48
felony, the defendant needs to have created the
18:51
fake records with an intent to commit
18:53
or conceal another crime. Here
18:55
it's unclear whether the Manhattan District
18:57
Attorney's Office plans to argue
19:00
that there's a second crime. If the grand
19:02
jury does not vote IN FAVOUR OF PROSECUTING
19:04
IT AS A FELONY, IT COULD DIRECT THE
19:07
PROSECUTOR TO FILD A MYSTIMINER CASE INSTEAD
19:09
AND THIS COULD ALL JUST BE BIG NOTHING BURGER.
19:11
BUT WITH ALL OF THAT
19:13
SAID, DONALD TRUMP HAS COMPLETELY
19:15
LOST IT AND IS TRYING TO
19:18
GET HIS SUPPORTERS to protest,
19:20
which is why authorities in Manhattan
19:22
are preparing for it with metal barricades and
19:25
with surveillance
19:25
cameras. So what do you think about
19:28
this so far, Jane? Yeah. So this
19:30
is political, but not in the way that
19:32
the right wing thinks it is. So let me
19:34
break it down. IT
19:36
TOOK FIVE YEARS FOR THE MANHATTAN DA'S
19:38
OFFICE TO CHARGE DONALD TRUMP
19:40
WHO WAS A COCUS SPREADER OF MICHAEL COLLEN
19:43
AFTER THEY CHARGE THEM CONVICTED
19:45
HIM AND SENT HIM TO PRISON. SO WHAT THEY
19:47
WAIT AROUND FIVE YEARS FOR, THIS IS
19:49
THE ONE CASE THAT I WAS SAYING ALL LONG
19:51
IS OPEN A SHUT. THERE'S NO QUESTION. They
19:53
he paid the hush money. It was violation
19:55
of campaign finance laws, and they falsified
19:57
the records. There's absolutely there's overwhelming evidence
20:00
to that effect, and they already convicted as coker
20:02
spirit. Right? They waited around for permission
20:05
from both Democratic and Republican
20:08
establishment figures. Bingo. Because
20:10
Republicans don't give a damn about Democratic establishment,
20:12
but they do care about their own donors, they
20:14
wait for permission from their own donors. Democrats
20:16
wait for permission from their donors and
20:19
Republican donors. And so
20:21
finally, Albert Bragg got that permission when
20:23
the Koch brothers, Murdoch, and everybody else
20:25
turned on Trump. So he's now, like, oh,
20:27
I have been waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting,
20:29
waiting, oh, you I have
20:31
permission. I'm gonna go forward now. Now
20:33
now that's that's your take on it.
20:35
Right? Like, obviously, you don't know for sure, but
20:37
think that your take on it is absolutely correct. don't
20:40
know if it has to do with donors. I think it has
20:42
more to do with the political appetite
20:44
on both sides -- Hundred percent. -- political
20:46
appetite among establishment politicians
20:49
on both sides to finish
20:51
Trump. Yeah. I don't want you to mistake what
20:53
I'm saying. Anne is absolutely right. It's not like
20:56
Albert Bragg is gonna get paid by Republican
20:58
and Democratic donors for this. Yeah. It's
21:00
No. It's groupthink. It's conventional wisdom.
21:03
For Democrats, they're they're the cowards
21:06
and the weaklings in this play that you
21:08
see. The national theater
21:10
of politics. And so they wait for permission
21:13
in the group think of, like, oh, Republican is also
21:15
great. Okay. Finally, we can do something. Right?
21:17
And so that's why Brad didn't do anything for all this time
21:19
and neither did his predecessor. So now
21:21
what is the play here? What is what are they gonna do?
21:23
Are they gonna finally actually end item? Yes.
21:25
It looks like they're gonna finally end item. Right?
21:28
Is he going to actually go to prison? No
21:30
way. No. Because this is political,
21:33
they're trying to hurt his chances Right?
21:36
And distract him and smear him
21:38
and said, now the thing is the right wing's thinking,
21:40
what do you mean? That's exactly what we think. No,
21:42
guys. He actually did do it. The
21:45
real problem is that there's no quality here.
21:47
If you had done it, you'd have gone to prison five
21:49
years ago. How do I know? Michael
21:51
Cohen, relatively regular guy, went to
21:53
prison five five years ago. Yeah. Right?
21:55
There's no question about it. They
21:57
cover for the elites, and Trump
21:59
is part of the elites. But
22:01
now that the elites have turned on Trump, they're
22:03
saying, okay, you can prosecute him
22:05
like a regular person. Yeah,
22:07
exactly. The difference here is
22:09
that for the first time, in
22:11
my opinion, and I think in your opinion as well,
22:13
you have the Republican establishment
22:17
playing along with it even though you might
22:19
see on media, you know, on in
22:21
the news, whatever, Twitter, social media,
22:24
they're they're pretending like they're so outraged by this.
22:26
But it's really important to understand
22:28
the Republican establishment always hated
22:30
Donald Trump, but they were
22:32
terrified of his base. NOW
22:35
THEY THINK THEY CAN MANUFACTURE A
22:37
SITUATION IN WHICH AND I
22:39
THINK IN THEIR MIND THEY GENUENTLY THINK, LIKE, NO,
22:41
NO, TRUMP IS LOSING IT. HE'S LOSING SUPPORT OF
22:43
MENG HIS BASE. Now is the time that we try to
22:45
finish him. I think that's really behind it. And
22:47
if you watch the reporting on
22:49
this, whether it's cable news, network
22:51
news, if you read the reporting on it, all the reporters
22:54
are like, we don't know where this came from.
22:56
You know, we're trying to figure that out. We're still trying
22:58
to crack that nut. Trying to figure out why Alvin
23:00
Bragg is to decided to really aggressively pursue
23:02
this all of a sudden, the
23:05
political landscape has changed a little bit
23:07
in regard to Donald Trump and the way the
23:09
Republican establishment feels about him. Now
23:11
remember, people have already faced
23:14
some pretty serious consequences for the hush
23:16
money payments to Stormy Daniels. And of course,
23:18
the argument is that the one hundred and
23:20
thirty thousand dollars was essentially
23:23
a campaign contribution in
23:25
violation of campaign finance
23:28
laws. Now in August
23:30
of twenty eighteen, Michael Cohen, Trump's
23:32
personal lawyer at the time, pleaded guilty
23:34
to eight charges of tax evasion, fraud, and
23:36
campaign finance violations in connection
23:39
to his payments to Daniels and Karen
23:41
McDougal. She was another woman
23:43
who had sexual relations with
23:45
Trump and THEY KILLED HER STORY
23:47
BEFORE IT COULD BE PUBLISHED IN THE NATIONAL
23:49
INQUIRER. AND
23:52
DURING HIS GUILTY PLEA, MICHAEL KONE
23:54
says in federal court he was directed
23:56
to violate campaign law. At the direction
23:59
of an unnamed candidate, gee, I wonder
24:01
who that was. That same candidate directed
24:03
him to pay a hundred thirty thousand dollars in hush
24:05
money, which the candidate later
24:07
reimbursed. He has sentenced to three
24:09
years IN PRISON AND THAT AFTER HE WAS
24:11
FOUND GUILTY AFTER HE PLAYED TO GUILTY. NOW LET'S
24:13
GET TO TRUMP BECAUSE HE'S ENCOURAGING PEOPLE
24:16
TO PROTEST. So
24:19
in his first truth social post,
24:21
he wrote this. Now illegal
24:24
leaks from a corrupt and highly and
24:26
highly political Manhattan district attorney's
24:28
office, which has allowed new records to be set
24:31
in violent crime and
24:33
whose leader is funded by George Soros,
24:35
indicate that with no crime being
24:37
able to be proven and based on
24:40
an old and fully debunked by numerous
24:42
other prosecutors. None of this is true, by the way,
24:44
fairytale. The far and away
24:46
leading Republican candidate and former president
24:49
of the United States of America will be
24:51
arrested on Tuesday of next week, meeting
24:53
Tuesday of this week. Protests
24:55
take our nation back. In subsequent
24:58
true social posts, he said something similar.
25:00
Basically, protest, protest, take to the streets.
25:03
And that's a call to a supporters
25:05
to do something similar to what they did
25:07
on January
25:07
sixth. Let's keep it real. Right? Yeah. So
25:10
look on the Trump protest
25:13
angle. First of all, there's nothing wrong with protesting.
25:15
And if he was just asking people to go peacefully
25:18
protest, there'd be no problem at all. Number
25:20
one, the context is we already know that
25:22
the last time he asked people to protest, they
25:24
broke down the doors, somebody got shot,
25:26
cops got killed, etcetera. He knows
25:28
that context as well as we do. And remember
25:30
during that time, he was very happy that they
25:32
were doing it, including channing
25:34
about murdering his vice president, his own
25:37
chief of staff said he was totally fine with it. So that's
25:39
an important piece of context. The other thing is,
25:41
as you read those deranged posts on
25:43
true social, it
25:46
it to me and I know, like, when
25:49
we get into race, everybody catches feelings.
25:51
Right? But it kinda read like called
25:54
to the clan. And the reason why
25:56
I say that in this context is because he's constantly
25:58
like, oh, and then other people
26:00
get to do anything they want. In the streets
26:02
and they ride and they do this and,
26:04
you know, and there's no retribution. And
26:07
he's calling for retribution against the
26:09
others. And it's interesting because he's
26:11
not just talking about his case. He's constantly
26:14
referring to how the others are going to
26:16
ruin America. How they you gotta
26:18
do something, and you gotta give them retribution
26:21
before they touched their beloved leader, etcetera.
26:24
And And when you read it in that context, you're
26:26
like, oh, yeah, he's barely even talking about his
26:28
own case. He's mainly trying
26:30
to attack the
26:31
lids. Because he's incredibly I
26:33
know you're gonna hate to hear this and everyone's gonna
26:35
get upset because they think I'm in
26:38
favor of what he's doing. I'm not. But
26:40
this is this is what he does and
26:42
it's pretty smart messaging. Right?
26:44
Because what he's doing is exploiting the
26:47
frustrations that people might be feeling
26:49
in Manhattan nor other big cities as
26:51
a result of increasing crime.
26:54
And he's saying, like, oh look at them. Coming
26:56
after me over this old thing,
26:59
that didn't go anywhere years ago
27:01
when it was first reported, but
27:03
they're letting all this other crime happen. Right?
27:05
That he's doing it yes
27:07
to to to stir up hatred to
27:09
stir up
27:10
anger. That's what he does, and he does it well.
27:12
Yeah. And so part of what he's referring
27:14
to is, you know, when there was
27:16
a a Black Lives Matter protest and,
27:18
you know, some buildings got
27:21
burned, etcetera. For the for white
27:23
Republicans, that was an enormously triggering
27:25
event. They wanted massive retribution
27:28
for what happened there. And so that was I
27:30
I think it's also early to January six. But bottom
27:32
line here is, look, he's
27:35
getting to use the establishment
27:38
not getting permission to prosecute a
27:40
member of the league for five years against
27:42
them. Said why did they wait five years? Yep.
27:44
Why there's all this crime now? All of a sudden, they do
27:46
it five years later. Because they were waiting for
27:48
goddamn permission to prosecute someone
27:51
who is clearly a criminal. There's no way
27:53
to hear. Because they because they didn't
27:55
give him look, guys, look, think about what the analyst
27:57
said about the reporters. WHAT A REPORT IT SHOULD
27:59
HAVE BEEN ASKING ON LONG IS FOR THE MANHATTAN
28:02
DA'S OFFICE IS SCREAMING IT, YOU
28:04
JUST PUT AWAY IS COCUSPERATOR. We
28:07
all know that. We've got you no
28:09
one denies that. Mhmm. So
28:11
why aren't you going after the coker's beard
28:13
or Donald Trump? IT'S A MASSIVE
28:16
AND OBVIOUS VIOLATION OF THE LAW.
28:18
THE REASON THEY DON'T IS BECAUSE HE WAS UNTOUCHABLE,
28:21
CUSE HE WAS PART OF THE ESTABLISHMENT and
28:23
the elites never, ever, ever
28:25
faced justice. Right? So,
28:27
anyway, this is all Sherad. Look,
28:29
here, just real quick, give you a sense
28:31
of what I keep saying that it's so obvious, Michael
28:34
Cohen gives the money to
28:36
the national enquirer who gave the money to Stormy
28:38
Daniels and the other lady Okay? Karen
28:40
McDougal. Karen McDougal. And
28:42
then he goes back to the Trump organization
28:44
and goes, okay. Now give me the money. Reimburse
28:47
me. Yeah. And so he gave them a hundred thirty
28:49
thousand. There's other expenses got to about
28:51
hundred and eighty thousand. Right? So they're
28:53
like, okay. We gotta take in the effect
28:55
the taxes. Because Michael Cohen's
28:57
illegally paying her with his money.
29:00
And then when he gets income, he has to pay taxes
29:02
on it. So they double it, and then they gave her
29:04
sixty thousand dollar bonus on top or
29:06
a crime well done. This is a Trump organization.
29:09
Was it was it well done? Apparently not.
29:11
So then he got four hundred and twenty thousand
29:13
dollars to reimburse him for the payment.
29:16
Right? SO THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION
29:18
IS THEN CLEARLY GIVING AN ILLEGAL
29:20
CAMPAIGN DONATION TO DONALD TRUMP AND
29:23
LYING ABOUT IT saying that it was a retainer
29:25
for you for Michael Cohen. Michael Cohen, the person
29:28
who received it now says, oh yeah, we were definitely
29:30
lying. It was not for a
29:31
retainer.
29:32
Right. It was to cover up this problem
29:34
on the campaign, and so there's
29:36
no question he didn't.
29:39
And that's what's so frustrating
29:42
about the establishment and the and their
29:44
love for the elites and then how they're above
29:47
the law. And that's why at the end of the day, they're gonna
29:49
try to hurt him in this election But he's
29:51
still among the elites. They're never gonna put
29:53
in a person who's in the elites in
29:56
jail. It's never gonna
29:57
happen.
29:57
Like it's so obvious to everyone
30:00
with a pulse that this
30:01
is politically motivated. At this point,
30:03
at this late juncture, like,
30:06
It's obvious that it's political. And
30:08
so you have all these different people
30:10
coming out. Senator Lindsey Graham can't believe I agree with
30:12
him, but I do agree with him. Think this is gonna help
30:14
Trump. I don't think it's gonna hurt him politically. Yeah.
30:17
I I don't care what it does politically. Yeah.
30:19
The reason I'm in favor of it, even though it's
30:22
this laid and it's obviously political
30:24
and blah blah blah and all the things that we've said
30:26
is, I I want somebody to enforce
30:28
the law equally for the first time in my life in
30:30
America. The only rich people
30:33
who ever get convicted are people
30:35
who stole from other rich people. Exactly.
30:37
You try to defraud or
30:39
steal money from Goldman Sachs, and you go
30:41
to jail. You go to jail for a long
30:44
time. You rob regular Americans,
30:46
you're celebrated. So this is,
30:48
you know, this is a one hundred
30:50
percent violation of the law. I want
30:52
him to get arrested. I want him to
30:55
face justice. And, you know, maybe
30:57
once they go to the
30:58
jury, maybe there's nothing they could do, but
31:00
that's really wishful thinking. Well,
31:03
let's move on to the fun
31:05
part of this story because there is a fun
31:07
part and involves, of course, for
31:09
the governor, Rhonda Santos. Florida
31:31
governor Ron DeSantis' initial
31:33
silence over the weekend in response
31:35
to the possibility of Trump getting arrested
31:38
led to a lot of right wing pressure
31:40
for the Florida governor to say something,
31:43
to do something, to protect Daddy Trump.
31:45
NOW HE FINALLY REACTED TODAY AND
31:47
MAN, IT IS A DOZY. BUT
31:50
BEFORE WE GET TO THAT VIDEO, HERE'S
31:52
HOW THE PRESSURE WAS APPLIED ON
31:54
GOVERNOR Ronda Santis Jason
31:56
Miller tweeted the following. Thank
31:59
you, Vice President Mike Pence, and
32:01
Vimpik Ramishamy. FOR
32:04
POINTING OUT HOW RADICAL LEFT DEMOCRATS ARE TRYING
32:06
TO DIVIDE OUR COUNTRY IN THE NAME OF PARTIES AND PARL
32:08
TO POLITICS AND THEN HE WRITES RADIO
32:11
SILENCE FROM RON DeSantis.
32:13
AND Nikki Haley. OKAY, SO IT STARTS OFF
32:15
THAT WAY. THEN YOU'VE GOT MR.
32:18
ALFA MAIL SEBASSION GORCA WHO SAYS
32:20
So is DeSantis going to say anything?
32:23
When are you gonna protect daddy? When are
32:25
you gonna protect him? The alphamales are
32:27
back? They have others, you know,
32:29
there's pressure pressures. I you have Cernovich
32:32
who, you know, took
32:34
it a step further and actually
32:37
wrote WHAT Ronda Santis SHOULD
32:39
SAY, LIKE HERE'S A Script JUST SAY THIS.
32:41
OKAY, I WILL NOT EXTRA DIGHT A PRESIDENTIAL
32:44
CANDIDATE TO A SOROS DA who
32:46
allows violent criminals to roam free until
32:48
there has been a proper legal review conducted
32:51
under Florida law. If
32:53
law full, then extradition may
32:55
occur, but not one day sooner.
32:57
It's all pretty hilarious. And then finally,
33:00
a guy named Stu Peter says,
33:02
if Rhonda Santos, is the conservative
33:04
hero he projects himself to be. He
33:06
should refuse to honor the arrest warrant
33:09
for president in x SILD
33:11
TRUMP AND SEND THE FLORIDA NATIONAL
33:13
GUARD TO MARALAGO TO ENSURE TRUMP'S
33:15
PROTECTION. PERIOD ANYTHING LESS
33:17
PROVES TO SANTAS' FRAUD. Now
33:19
finally, today, Florida
33:21
Governor Ron DeSantis responded to
33:24
the story about Donald Trump potentially
33:26
getting arrested and indicted soon and
33:28
here's what that look like.
33:30
I don't know what goes into paying
33:33
hush money to a porn star to
33:35
to secure silence over some type
33:37
of alleged affair. I just I can't speak to
33:39
that. But what I
33:41
can speak to is
33:43
that if you have a prosecutor who
33:46
is ignoring crimes happening
33:49
every single day in his jurisdiction
33:52
and he chooses to go back many, many
33:54
years ago to try to
33:57
use something about porn
33:59
star hush money payments, that's
34:01
an example of pursuing a
34:03
political agenda.
34:06
I I mean, I don't know anything about getting
34:08
my d wet when my my wife's pregnant and
34:10
I'm paying hush money payments. I know I know nothing
34:12
about that. I know nothing about that.
34:14
Testing pervert who's, you know, messing around
34:16
on his pregnant wife. But I will say Alvin
34:19
Bragg Sorrow's funded yada yada
34:21
typical when talking points.
34:22
Yeah. So before I break down the politics
34:24
of the right wing reaction, let's have fun.
34:27
To be clear, Donald
34:29
Trump did not sleep with,
34:32
as far as we know, McDougall or
34:34
Stormy Daniels until after
34:37
Melania had delivered. So couple months
34:39
after he delivered
34:40
-- Oh, interesting. -- I thought that she was pregnant
34:42
when you were pregnant. No.
34:43
Slap with Stormy Daniels. And I'll tell you what. Okay.
34:45
Okay. So she delivers,
34:47
and apparently, at that point, they
34:50
are not having relations. So he immediately
34:52
goes to MacDougall a couple months later. Class
34:54
a couple of months later, he goes to the Stormy
34:56
Daniels because, I mean,
34:58
Melania is probably in bed taking care of their
35:00
baby, so he's gotta go get laid
35:03
elsewhere. And but she's
35:05
While she was pregnant, he sexually
35:07
assaulted a reporter from people
35:09
magazine while she was in the building.
35:12
Allegedly. What
35:13
Melania? Allegedly, the
35:15
reporter saying, yeah, I went to go interview them.
35:17
Melania is super pregnant. We go to another room
35:19
and he grabs me
35:21
you know, just like he describes in the
35:24
famous accent holiday. No.
35:25
I know I'm saying allegedly because he hasn't been convicted
35:27
of it, and we just have to cover
35:29
our bases. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'll just
35:31
let me just tell you. Super believable story.
35:34
Yes. Dozens of people have had similar
35:36
stories about Trump. So imagine that,
35:38
guys. Imagine that. If
35:41
you're a woman, you're pregnant, and your husband
35:43
is grabbing at other women who's just
35:46
interviewing you guys, and then thinks,
35:48
ah, well, she already had the baby. I'm gonna go
35:50
sleep with cornstarts. Okay. Anyway, that's who Donald
35:52
Trump is. Just to understand that. And that's why DeSantis
35:55
taking that shot. Don't look, I No. I loved
35:57
it. I thought that was great. Finally, Desantis grows
35:59
a set. Like -- Yeah. -- you know. But
36:01
again, it was thought slight job.
36:04
It was a good job. It was a pretty big job.
36:06
You know what Donald Trump would have said. Donald Trump would
36:08
have said, listen, if the Sanders had
36:10
done the porn star, I like, oh, you know, the baby's
36:12
barely out, and then here comes meep
36:14
ball, and he's gotta get a porn star.
36:16
He didn't even use a condom. What's
36:19
he doing? It's ranges. I
36:21
wouldn't do it. Would you do it? Would you
36:23
do it to your poor, poor wife? Okay.
36:25
But that's what said. This dentist
36:27
was, like, subtle. Like No. I know you're right. --
36:29
can't compare DeSantis to Trump when it comes
36:31
to that type of communication. Like,
36:33
Trump's a bull in a China shop he doesn't
36:36
care. just says it. Right? Whereas, Rhonda
36:38
DeSantis is trying to be cute. He's trying to be clever.
36:40
He's trying to be subtle. But
36:42
for relative to
36:44
previous DeSantis jabs at
36:46
Trump, this was the best. Yeah. So we're gonna
36:48
get to Steve Banner's reaction to DeSantis, which
36:50
is awesome. But so now the politics of it.
36:53
So look, Gorka and Miller
36:55
are huge Trump
36:57
loyalist. So, of course, they're gonna hit DeSantis
36:59
on this and say, you better back the big guy, otherwise,
37:02
you know, the base will turn
37:04
on you. Guys like Stu Peter's are
37:06
just knucklehead, MAGA, guys. Oh,
37:08
just genuinely like, oh, let's go fight.
37:10
Let's go and make sure that there's wireless if they come
37:12
out for the beer leader. Total Otter knuckleheads,
37:15
certification, which is an interesting one. Because
37:17
he's actually backing DeSantis. Mhmm.
37:19
And so a lot of the Republicans who
37:22
are now backing DeSantis are
37:24
playing this game. They're disdanced. They're
37:27
like, oh, DeSantis should say, I will
37:29
not extradite as if, like, Yeah. Like
37:31
You know, it's a Russia or Bahamas or,
37:33
you know, France is asking
37:35
for no. It's of course, you
37:38
said Florida sends it to to New York
37:40
if the New York is looking for criminal
37:42
that they just indicted. Right? Well, I say
37:44
I will not extradite because they're
37:46
telling the Sandoz how to play the
37:48
bass. Remember the bass
37:50
likes Donald Trump. So you have to
37:52
baby him a little bit and say you're protecting
37:55
him. But then actually hit him with
37:57
these jobs. Yeah. So you see
37:59
it very clearly in the
38:02
in the guys who are trying to nudge
38:04
Trump out while not appearing to
38:07
nudge Trump out. So
38:10
there were Trump loyalists who, of
38:12
course, did not take kindly to Rhonda
38:15
Santos' response to
38:17
this whole mess. And two of those individuals
38:19
were Steve Bannon and Mike Londell enjoy.
38:23
Governor DeSantis, you're better than this. That
38:25
was a weasel approach. And don't give me the don't
38:27
don't throw anything about the porn star. Don't need to
38:29
hear it from you. Okay? Don't need to
38:31
hear it. Okay? Mike
38:33
Glendale, the election crime bureau
38:35
reports, sir.
38:38
Well, first of all, DeSantis is
38:40
the Trojan horse we thought he was. I just
38:42
wanna put that out there. How disgusting
38:44
he is. He remember everybody.
38:46
He met with dominion lawyers on
38:49
finding figuring out a way to make it easier
38:51
to sue people for defamation like
38:53
my pillow and my Glendale. If
38:56
they arrest our our great president Donald
38:59
Trump, hands down he
39:01
he wins the twenty twenty four
39:03
election. You know,
39:06
for all the Republicans out there, you cheer
39:08
for the circus. Sometimes the circus is gonna come to
39:10
your home. That's what you're watching right there.
39:12
Now all of a sudden, and Ron DeSantis. He's
39:14
mingle in with Dominion lawyers and
39:16
like all these other
39:18
accusations. Oh, it's delicious. It's
39:20
still wishes. Yeah.
39:21
So I get two things out. First of all, I like Steve
39:23
made me like, I don't need to hear it. I
39:25
don't need to hear
39:26
it. Not from you, buddy. Okay. Not
39:28
from you. You know what that means? That means
39:30
shh. Of course, all of us,
39:32
republicans are dirtbags. We don't
39:34
talk about how other republics are dirtbags
39:37
because we're all dirtbags. Steve
39:39
Bannon stole from his own supporters just like
39:41
Donald Trump did. Right? And then he had to get pardoned
39:43
by Donald Trump for that same theft. He's
39:45
like, I don't need to hear it. Oh, don't don't tell the
39:47
audience. Don't tell the right wingers what criminals
39:50
we are. Right? But what's super interesting
39:52
is that Most Republicans
39:55
agree with Mike Glendale when he says,
39:57
if you arrest them, Trump is more likely
39:59
to win. Yeah. You know why? Republican
40:01
voters like
40:02
criminals. As No. That's how
40:04
I I don't think that's what it is. So, like, come on. Just
40:06
being just like, fair, Jake. It's not because they
40:09
love them. You're rich. No. You're not being
40:11
very, being purposely inflammatory and
40:13
ridiculous. No. What they well,
40:15
they'll see Trump is like some sort of
40:17
victim. Right? Yes. As someone who's
40:20
being targeted politically poor
40:22
guy. We gotta stick up for
40:23
him. No. But Anna, we're saying the same thing. So
40:25
let me explain Are we? Yeah. We are. Because
40:28
Yes. If you ask the right
40:30
winger, they will say, no,
40:32
he's being set up politically and this is outrageous
40:35
and he's the victim. But they
40:37
never address the actual
40:39
substance. They never say, oh, he didn't
40:41
pay the hush money. You know, he didn't sleep with Stormy
40:43
Daniels. It isn't a campaign finance
40:45
violation. Or on any
40:47
of the laws that he's broken. They have
40:50
a thousand excuses. The reality is
40:52
they don't care that he's a criminal
40:54
because he owns the lips. So they're
40:57
they're like, okay, you wanna steal from us, Steve Bannon,
40:59
you wanna by the way, Donald Trump, you
41:01
wanna take hundreds millions of dollars from us
41:03
and not give one cent to the January sixth
41:06
Defendance, we don't mind.
41:08
Okay. So I'll amend from they like criminals,
41:11
but they don't mind criminals at
41:13
all as long as they're criminals on their
41:15
side. Okay. So you think hundred percent
41:17
of Republican supporters of Donald
41:19
Trump's all know that he
41:21
committed crimes and they purposely
41:24
are not addressing it. No.
41:25
You're you're No. You're doing
41:27
exaggeration. You're saying a hundred percent. I didn't say a
41:29
hundred percent. Yeah. Okay. But you you majority.
41:32
You guys slice of Yes. I will general
41:34
look, guys. Here. Al Franklin does
41:37
a kitting photo with
41:40
somebody, and the democrats immediately
41:43
get rid of them strong under the bus. The
41:45
slightest slidest inf in
41:47
in fraction for a Democrat, and you're gone.
41:50
All the Democrats will hate you and throw you
41:52
overboard. Republicans, like, oh, I come into
41:54
this crime. I come into that crime. I come into this. Time.
41:56
And each time every not every
41:58
most Republican voters go. Oh, I didn't see
42:00
it. I don't see it. I don't see it. I don't oh, no. Victor. Victor.
42:02
Victor. Victor. Steel for me. Sure. Go
42:05
ahead. Steel for me. Victor. Victor. Victor. There's
42:07
you can commit almost eighty crimes as
42:09
a Republican. As long as you're on the
42:11
lips, The MAGA BASE will love you.
42:13
Do you remember what the coverage was like on right wing
42:15
outlets as Trump was getting impeached?
42:17
The first time. First time you got impeached.
42:19
When he engaged in a quid pro quo
42:22
withheld, congressionally appropriated
42:25
military funding from Ukraine, unless
42:28
Zalenski announced some sham investigation
42:30
into Biden in order to hurt Biden's chances
42:32
of getting elected in twenty twenty. Do you remember that?
42:35
Okay. Do you think right wing media was actually
42:37
reporting the facts of that impeachment trial?
42:40
Yes. So I hear what you're saying. So
42:42
they're partly only see the prop again.
42:44
Do I think And they believe the prop again
42:46
-- Yes. but but at the same time -- Yeah.
42:48
-- do I think No. Come on. Hold on. Hold
42:51
on. Okay. If if a Democrat had
42:53
slept with a porn star -- Mhmm.
42:55
-- a couple months after their wife
42:57
delivered, and then paid hush
42:59
money and in violation of campaign finance
43:01
laws. What do you think Republicans would say? Well,
43:04
Republicans say back to them. Drive
43:06
them out of politics right now. Right?
43:09
Trump says, oh, no. It's totally fine. My
43:11
point to you, Jake, well, first of all, right wing
43:13
media would be talking about that in that's
43:15
all they would be talking about. And yeah, they would believe
43:17
it because right wing media would be covering it
43:19
constantly. The argument that I'm trying to
43:21
make is you don't know what's in the heads of
43:24
every single Trump
43:25
supporter. So when you generalize like
43:26
this No. No. I hear what you're saying. I
43:28
wouldn't let let me just say it this way. Let me say
43:30
it this way. I would hate If the
43:32
right wing generalized about every
43:34
progressive and
43:35
said, oh, progressives absolutely love
43:38
crime, they can't get enough of it. Look
43:40
at Well, Anna, you think they don't? They do that
43:42
twenty 472
43:43
hundred percent. Do that. Yeah. Okay. So
43:45
what am I crying again about generalizing
43:48
correctly about them? Correctly.
43:50
Okay. Okay. Look, guys. Look, yes,
43:53
I get it. Right? I'm the guy
43:55
who says all the time. Right wing media lies
43:57
to the right wing voters. And the right wing voters
43:59
don't actually have real information. So
44:01
Anna is totally right about that. At the
44:04
same time, the raising right wing
44:06
media lies to them is because the audience
44:08
wants to be lied to. You just
44:10
saw it in the Fox News material
44:12
in the Dominion lawsuit. They're like, oh, we're so
44:14
afraid of our audience. Sorry. We're up hurry
44:16
up a lie. They love the lies. They love the
44:18
lies. You don't think they couldn't figure it
44:20
out. If a Democrat did the same exact thing,
44:22
they'd have figured it out. WE
44:25
GOT TO TAKE A BREAK. WHEN WE COME BACK,
44:27
MAYBE WE CAN GET TO TRUMP'S REACTION
44:29
TO RON DeSantis. WE'LL SEE IF WE HAVE TIME
44:31
FOR
44:31
THAT. BUT LET'S TAKE break, we'll come right back.
44:52
Alright. Back on TYT Jink and
44:55
Anna, and also Paul generity. He
44:57
just became a member by hitting the join
44:59
button below the video on YouTube. We appreciated
45:01
everybody else who can do TYT dot com
45:03
slash join. Come to do the show with us.
45:05
CASPER. Let's do
45:06
it. I don't know what
45:09
goes into paying hush money
45:11
to a porn star to to secure
45:13
silence over. Some type of alleged
45:15
affair. I just I can't speak to that.
45:18
But what I can speak to is
45:21
that if you have a prosecutor who
45:24
is ignoring crimes happening
45:26
every single day in his jurisdiction
45:29
and he chooses to go back many, many
45:31
years ago to try to
45:34
use something about porn
45:37
star hush money payments, that's
45:39
an example of pursuing a
45:41
political agenda.
45:43
THAT WAS FLORIDA GOVERNOR RON DeSantis' REACTION
45:46
TO HEADLINES INDICATING THAT THERE IS SOME
45:48
POSSIBILITY THAT DONALD TRUMP could be arrested
45:50
and indicted in charges tied
45:52
to hush money payments that
45:55
were paid to Stormy Daniels in
45:57
the lead up to the twenty sixteen presidential election.
46:00
The argument is that it was an
46:02
illegal campaign contribution, and
46:05
he is potentially facing charges
46:07
as result of that. Now, Anyone
46:11
with the polls can notice that Ron DeSantis
46:13
started off that statement with a bit of
46:15
a jab toward Trump. And
46:17
look at that, Trump apparently has a pulse because
46:19
he didn't like that reaction. He
46:22
wrote on truth social, Ron DeSink Desmondias
46:24
will probably find out about false
46:27
accusations and fake stories sometime in
46:29
the future as he gets older,
46:31
wiser, and better known when he's
46:33
unfairly and illegally attacked by a
46:35
woman, even classmates that are under
46:38
age or possibly a man. I'm
46:40
sure he will want to fight these misfits
46:43
just like I do. So he
46:45
also, quote, truffed a
46:47
might as touch post that
46:50
apparently said that Ron DeSantis
46:52
had partnered with underage girls and
46:54
was drinking while he was a teacher
46:57
at a Georgia school. That was something that
46:59
Donald Trump also attacked him on earlier.
47:01
We had done a story on that as well. But
47:04
it's clear here that he's trying to imply
47:06
that Ron DeSantis is,
47:09
you know, messing around with underage
47:11
girls is is possibly
47:16
gay but is hiding it. Now none of that
47:18
stuff is true as far
47:20
as we know, but it doesn't matter. If
47:22
you jab Trump, he's gonna come at you ten
47:24
times harder, and that's what he what he did here.
47:27
Yeah. So look, Constantly,
47:30
Rhonda Santos is using
47:33
a p shooter or ABB gun and
47:35
Trump pulls out a Bazooka. And
47:38
launches. So did this
47:40
say this jab in the normal political
47:42
world was a pretty good one, got chuckles,
47:45
people are talking about it. It's got headlines.
47:48
But then Trump comes back with,
47:50
I think, you might be a pedophile and
47:52
gay. Okay.
47:55
Now if a Democrat did that, they'd be instantly
47:57
eliminated, and they would have no credibility,
48:00
etcetera, and the Democrats themselves would
48:02
hate them. Right? When a Republican does it,
48:04
they're like, we'll see. We'll
48:06
see. Right? I the base might love
48:08
it and think that's it. I knew it. DeSantis
48:11
is a rhino pedophile groomer,
48:13
and groomer is a word that Trump
48:15
used before in relation shipped to Rhonda
48:17
Santos using the same picture when he was a
48:19
teacher, etcetera. I'm
48:22
curious to see what Republicans are gonna do.
48:24
They've never needed evidence before. So
48:27
are they gonna need evidence that the scientists did
48:29
any of these things? That the Sandoz is
48:31
gay. I mean and
48:33
and I like slept with underage girls. They
48:35
need it. They know it. They've never needed
48:36
evidence. So maybe they'll believe it right away. But
48:38
it's a Republican, so they might not believe
48:40
it right away. I'm not sure. One
48:43
thing that's been pretty clear to me so
48:45
far and I could be wrong or things could
48:47
change is it doesn't seem like the
48:50
Republican base, meaning the ordinary
48:53
voters ever really abandoned Trump.
48:55
They've always been pretty hardcore supporters
48:58
of Trump. They've been loyal to him. The only
49:00
change I've seen in political landscape is
49:03
the elites or the Republican establishment has
49:05
kind of moved away from Trump. So
49:08
that's what I find kind of interesting about
49:10
this entire debacle, this entire Drama
49:13
PLAYING OUT BETWEEN DONALD TRUMP AND RON
49:15
DeSantis, BUT THERE WAS ALSO AN
49:17
INTERESTING REACTION TO TRUMP
49:19
WANTING HIS SUPPORT ORDERS TO GO OUT
49:21
THERE AND PROTEST AGAINST
49:24
THE MANHATON DISTRICT ATTORNEY, POTENTIALLY
49:26
ARRESTING TRUMP FOR THE HUSH MONEY PAYMENTS.
49:29
For instance, when he was encouraging people
49:31
to protest, Marjorie Greene tweeted
49:34
about this and said, no. We
49:36
don't need to protest ABOUT THE COMMUNIST
49:39
DEMOCRATS PLANNING TO ARREST PRESIDENT
49:41
TRUMP AND THE POLITICAL WEAPONIZATION OF OUR GOVERNMENT
49:44
AND ELECTION INTERFERENCE. THESE IDIATES ARE
49:46
SEALING THEIR OWN FATE IN twenty twenty four
49:48
BECAUSE THE SILENT MAJORITY HAS TWO FEELINGS
49:50
RIGHT NOW. ABOUT THE CURRENT REGIME,
49:52
I'M GUESSING SHE'S REFERING TO BIDEN. Yep.
49:55
Fear and anger. That is the most
49:57
powerful combination when election time
49:59
comes, and the Democrats are
50:01
driving that force with their own corrupt
50:03
actions. So she's trying to discourage
50:06
people from doing anything stupid and crazy.
50:08
But she's not the only one. You
50:10
know, Ali Alexander, who
50:12
was one of the organizers of
50:15
the riots that took place on January sixth,
50:17
also discouraged people from protesting
50:21
and specifically pointed out the fact, let's go
50:23
to graphic nine here. I love
50:25
Trump. Stop the steel will not
50:27
be physically protesting, meaning we're not gonna
50:29
protest Trump potentially getting arrested. We
50:31
decline. We'll be focused on the one
50:34
thousand plus families still suffering
50:36
post January sixth. And
50:39
you also have Jesse Kelly who
50:42
argued the last time Trump's biggest fans
50:44
protested on his behalf, he
50:46
left them all to rot in jail without
50:48
so much as a penny from him in
50:50
legal fees, not a penny shame
50:52
on him for this, do not
50:54
go to a blue area in protest
50:56
for this man, ignore this.
50:59
Yeah. So those
51:01
last two were very accurate. I
51:03
certainly don't agree with those guys on anything else,
51:06
but it's absolutely true. Donald Trump raised
51:08
hundreds of millions of dollars for
51:10
legal defense and never spent
51:13
a dime on any of the January six
51:15
riders. He says that their patriots and
51:17
political prisoners he talked about it
51:19
in this context too. Like, oh, they're gonna
51:21
you know, okay. I can't believe nobody's sticking out
51:23
for them. Why don't you stay stick out for them? Why
51:25
don't you pay their legal defense? The money that you
51:27
raised, because you're a crook. You're
51:30
such an obvious crook. Right?
51:32
But, no, it's not obvious to the right wing.
51:35
So Marjorie Taylor Green here being
51:37
the theoretically, the
51:39
calming voice. McCarthy did something similar.
51:42
But listen to what she says there, that she actually
51:44
accidentally said one of the most true
51:46
things at American politics. She said
51:48
that the
51:50
the fear and anger that is
51:52
the most powerful combination when election
51:54
time comes.
51:55
That's all they lean on for that campaigning. Exactly
51:58
right, Anna. The only thing that Republicans
52:00
ever use is fear and anger.
52:03
Fear and anger. Be afraid and get
52:05
really angry. Be afraid and get really
52:07
angry. Now, that's
52:09
why why do Republicans do that? Because
52:11
they don't actually wanna pass any laws that help
52:13
you. So they have to get you to
52:15
vote, not for yourself, not
52:18
something that's gonna help you and your family. So
52:20
they have to create fear and anger towards others
52:23
so you vote against
52:24
them. That's why volcanism is centerpiece
52:26
of everything they do. Right? What
52:29
project are they offering to
52:32
voters to their supporters to
52:34
actually improve their lives. All
52:36
they do is instill fear. All they do
52:39
is lie about things that are being done at
52:41
school. It's all meant to scare
52:43
voters into supporting
52:45
them because they're the ones who are allegedly gonna
52:47
protect them from the big big bad scary
52:50
CRT the big bad scary
52:52
drag queens or whatever it is that they're fear mongering
52:54
about at any given moment. But anyway,
52:56
we'll see how this all plays out. It's just really interesting
52:59
to see someone like Marjorie
53:01
Green of all people trying
53:03
to, like, calm things
53:06
down, turn the temperature down as
53:08
is trying to turn the temperature up and get people to
53:10
take to the streets and protest his, you
53:12
know, a potential upcoming
53:15
arrest. Alright. We gotta take a break.
53:17
That does it for the first hour. We're gonna completely
53:19
switch gears when we come back. There was a fascinating
53:22
conversation between Chris Wallace and Eva
53:24
Languria in regard to the Latino
53:27
vote. Why is it that a larger
53:29
percentage of Latino voters have
53:31
switch sides to vote for
53:32
Republicans. We'll talk about that and more
53:34
coming up. Don't miss it.
