It's shocking how normalized the president of the United States being a liar, a racist, having full-blown dementia, making shit up, all of the crime that goes on, the corruption, how normalized it's become. And as we all live in the United States, there's this constant split screen. Like we know he's doing all of the stuff. Yet at the same time, we're all still kind of living our lives. And when I pause and just look at a normal day in the White House, we all must sit there and go, this cannot be normal. There's a whole generation of people, younger Americans that are seeing this. And this type of behavior has become so normalized. I want to play two videos for you.

Number one, Trump saying he would release the second boat strike video where they just, you know, murder for sport where they're just murdering people for sport in the caribbean and then when a black reporter a few days later asked him the same question he goes apeship bananas play the first one kiley you release video of that first boat strike on september 2nd but not the second will you release video of that strike so that the american people can see for themselves well i don't know what they have but whatever they have would certainly release no problem you said you would have no problem with releasing the full video of that strike on september 2nd off the coast of Venezuela. Secretary Hegstep now says, you know, you said that. I didn't say that. This is ABC

fake news. And it goes on to berate the reporter and, you know, all of the stuff. You're terrible. You're obnoxious. All of these things. Here's the deal. The demeaning of people should net. We should never be callous to how he demeans people, how he disrespects people. He does not respect other people and that is so gross but here's the deal when you're talking about you know we've become so accustomed to his lying like the lying tracker and trump 1.0 they had to quit doing it because it just kept going on and people supporters will be like yeah well he's probably lying mass deportations now well he's probably lying so that has the lying has actually benefited him and then it's run cover for all his crazy shit and the fact that we are allowing

the president of the United States to demean people and lie like this says more about us than it does him. I agree. And I just think that the more and more his presidency is on display, a few things happened to me. Number one, I realized how badly the Biden administration failed us. The more and more I think about when I see these temper tantrums in the White House, the angrier I get at the Democrats because we saw Trump 1.0. We saw January 6 and Biden comes out and beats him. It's a complete repudiation of these tactics of treating reporters like shit, of lying, of mismanaging things. And then he gets in power and he forgets about all of these things. And he just governs and he did a lot of good things. But he left the entire country so vulnerable.

and his inability to pull out of the race and let the Democrats really have a robust primary. And the fact that we lost to that says more about the Democrats than it does about the people that voted for Trump. This is a layup to beat this guy. And I just think the Democrats milk toast approach to this from Biden all the way to the way, Hakeem and Chuckles are.

responding to it right now is such a failure when you see people throwing feces against the wall and there's nothing that's changed in Trump's behavior from even before he descended down the escalator this guy's a nut he's always been a nut he's a malignant narcissist what are the Democrats going to do about it moving along here he is totally unhinged when asked about there is a rumor that 20 Republican Congress people are going to resign and not run for office. Listen how unhinged he gets here. And I just have a quick question.

There's at least 20 House Republicans who have either said they're going to retire or not run again. And Democrats also. And Democrats. Why don't you mention them? How many Democrats are going to retire? How many Democrats? Well, that's what I was going to ask. Well, why don't you tell me the number of Democrats, too?

you tell me about the narrow margins and no i'm not concerned i think we're going to do well we will have the greatest economy we're going to have the greatest economy in history how many democrats are retiring how come you only know the republicans but not the democrats because i can't prepare to ask you a question about no no you're unprepared because you should know the democrats you're totally unprepared go okay i've seen enough perhaps. Okay, number one, it's like he doesn't even follow the question or he's just taken deflection to New Heights, which I know he can do. But the reason the reporter's asking him is because he's the leader of the Republican Party. And of course, he has to demean the women

in the press pool. And I just, I am struck when I saw all of this video from Yasser, I am struck by his pallor like he significantly looks worse than he did say four weeks ago and it just i'm enraged by the fact that we sit here and we allow him to demean reporters specifically women over and over and over again and i don't hear any calls from any republicans because they're all castrated. But I don't hear any from Democrats either. I don't hear any from the people at these housing office, or I'm sorry, these press offices, these reporters come from ABC News. Why doesn't ABC News make a statement? CNN, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. They don't. Because they're all capitulated. They've all paid him money in lawsuits. You know, this is, this is just a mass surrender.

And I don't, I don't believe that these industry titans are going to save us. But I do think a, a strong opposition and the Democratic Party is what's important here. And you do not see organized speaking and press conferences from the Democrats all the time. And I want you to remember that during Joe Biden's presidency, Donald Trump and Maga Republicans were ubiquitous. They picked about four talking points, Hunter Biden, Sleepy Joe Biden, and a few other Afghanistan, which are all. And they beat the shit out of them non-stop. I mean, it was just pervasive and relentless. And I do not see that from the Democrats.

The Democrats, in my opinion, are not rising to this moment. There are times where they are, but the Democratic base is so thirsty for fighters and moral clarity. And when you have a guy saying the following, put this up. equipment has gotten too expensive. And a lot of the reason is because they put these environmental excesses on the equipment, which don't do a damn thing except, make it complicated, make it impractical. And you really have to be, in many cases, you need about 185 IQ to turn on a lawnmower. Okay.

So this type of response, this is where the Democrats should be hammering nonstop. He is a pedophile protector and or a participant in a pedophilia ring. He has clear, full-blown dementia. He will not shut up about passing a very elementary school style cognitive test. 25th Amendment, 25th Amendment, and they should beat it, beat it, beat it. But they're like, oh, no, we can't talk about impeachment. They have these made up rules, the Democrats, that govern the way they oppose this. and my thing is like your instincts ruling class got us here the democratic establishment ruling class

your instincts got us here so maybe don't go by those instincts anymore maybe your instincts are dead wrong all right listener i know that a lot of you have this pattern where it's like you know what i'm going to get my family member a gift card and here's the thing about gift cards i have a drawer of them.

everybody lies and bullshit and the response to that was oh well you know it's it's more affordable and biden did some good things he did he did some great things Donald trump should be in fucking prison right now because he stole classified documents he doesn't want the investigation release because he's a fucking criminal. He was convicted on 34 felony counts because he tried to influence an election. But you know what the Democrats did? Fucking nothing. And I blame Merrick Garland for that. You've brought me around to the idea that the appointment of Merrick Garland to the AG position, not going after Trump was the biggest failure in our lifetime from a president. And I agree with you because you look at what Trump is doing. Everybody could see it. We had

his defense secretary during Trump 1.0 saying he wanted to shoot protesters. Well, and a lot of the people in his cabinet from Trump 1.0 came out of that. Yes. And said he is a Nazi. He is a full-blown fascist. This guy is dangerous. And I just, I, the Republicans are the Republicans. They've always been like this. They're opportunist. They weaponize people's faith against them. They pitched this whole trickle down economics, bullshit. They lie, lie, lie, lie. Trump is the manifestation of all the Republican Party's worst impulses brought to fruition. And in many ways, there's, I can tell they feel

relief that he's in power now because now they don't have to act so polite anymore. Now they can be more brazen with their racism. Right. So just always brings me back to the Democrats in this milk toast response. You look at Zoran Mamdani's victory in New York City in the way book or uh hakeem and chuckles you know they're just this they're too scared to latch onto a winner but you know who wasn't scared to latch onto a winner the attractive telegenic i took on the billionaire class trump knew his political instincts were correct in that moment to suck up to him and so it's just wild but while all this shit's going on all these crazy uh dementia bullshit statements that he makes, lawnmowers, IQs, Hannibal Lecter, you know, just as a greatest

hits of bullshit. What's going on every day in the White House are shakedowns? And so we can get distracted by, you know, pudding boy, mush brain saying putting boy shit. But at every chance, he's shaking everybody down to enrich himself or his friends. And now this whole paramount Warner Brothers thing has just completely blown. up. Netflix made an offer. Larry Ellison and his son want it so badly because they want to have a super monopoly on all of this stuff. And none other than Jared Kushner is right in the epicenter of it with like the Saudis. Yeah. And it is such, it is so against all of our

interests. And you have an American president who is only serving the smallest percentage of people imaginable. He is only, his government is corrupt and pop this up, Kylie. This merger, you guys, is so insane. If Paramount is allowed to take over Warner Brothers Discovery, the conservative billionaire Ellison family will control Paramount Studios, CBS, CNN, MTV, HBO, Comedy Central, Nickelodeon Cartoon Network, Warner Brothers, DC Studios, Van Dango, New Line Cinema, TNT sports, TBS, Oracle, and more. And not to mention Jared Kushner, the Saudis, I'm sure the Russians, the Chinese, I'm sure everybody's in on this shit.

And like two days ago, the biggest story of foreign policy ever is that the United States is not going to align with Europe anymore. The European Union, they're going to, they're really putting out pro, Russian talking points. Vladimir Putin was on Russian television praising the United States, praising the United States. We're supposed to be the ally of Ukraine. But all of this shit just keeps happening. And we're just living this crazy ass split screen. But here is where you know that the lies and the cover up are daily. Put this up. Just in the Bureau of of labor statistics won't publish October PPI inflation report.

The Lincoln Project responds. They have canceled the jobs report, the GDP report, and now the inflation report. Nothing to see here at all. Imagine, viewer, imagine for 2.5 seconds that a Kamala Harris, a Joe Biden, a Bill Clinton, a Barack Obama, anybody did not release the transparent economic data. And he's not releasing it. And here's why. Because he has the magnificent seven in the stock market exchanging trillions billions,

billions of dollars back and forth to each other to keep everyone's 401Ks up to keep the country club Republicans happy. And he won't release these reports because the stock market will start responding accordingly. And this is. The foundations of our economy are completely receding, and they won't report on it. This guy wants to cook the books, and you know who else does this kind of shit? Russia. And so all of these Republicans at some point, I don't know if they ever have a reconciliation

as to the stuff for decades that they said they valued, the Constitution, national security, transparency, strong economy. Or if it's just all been bullshit the whole time. If it's just controlling the libs and being able to be racist and not paying taxes. And I think that is really fundamentally their ethos. And they do performative politics when they need to. But now they're completely liberated to go along with all this hairbrain shit and then make Larry Ellison and his son. I mean, that's just utterly insane to have that kind of monopoly in the media.

Well, there used to be something called antitrust. and monopoly litigation. But I look at this and I think, okay, so you bring a lawsuit and you sue and then it goes to the Supreme Court and they're like, Trump can do whatever he wants. Because basically the Supreme Court telegraphed yesterday, we're going to give Trump more power. We're going to take more power away from Congress and give it to Trump. So there is no stop here. Then you're also hearing reports that Trump was like, I want to be in charge of who's doing CNN

in the Oval Office with Larry Ellison. listen, hey, then I get to do the programming. So basically what you're saying is all of these outlets will be state-run media, full stop. That's where we're headed. It's just, it's so utterly insane. And then you have these people running these news organizations who the Larry Ellison's are their bosses. Right. Who, when they get outbid by Netflix, they just call up the president.

And so you're never going to get accurate reporting, which is why viewer, it's so important. that you stay fixated and mired in independent media because cable news legacy media is just a part of the biggest problem all right so we have subscribe like comment we'll be back later with more news
