At about 4 a.m. last night, 403 a.m. Eastern time, to be exact, Trump sent out a truth social post
indicating that he is prepared to declare national emergency and then mobilize the National Guard
in order to deport immigrants en masse on day one, right when he gets into office. And something that
people seem to have trouble wrapping their heads around is that Trump plans on doing everything
he promised and more. You know, we could have had the expanded child tax credit. We could have had
tax breaks for first-time homebuyers or tax breaks for small businesses, things that help people
in their day-to-day lives, but instead we get the 20 to 40 percent tariffs on all imports that
Trump promised, and he plans on doing this. He is already putting together a cabinet. This article
reads, Lighthizer and his allies lay the groundwork for Trump's massive new tariffs. Preemptive
efforts to counter expected criticisms of these tariffs signal an even greater shakeup on trade
during Trump's second term. We all know that Trump got us into a trade war with China during
his first term in about 2017, 2018, but what he plans to do during his second term takes it
to a new level. But it's not even just the tariffs. It's not even just the mass deportations
that I do want to talk to you guys about. It's also about voters all across the country
beginning to realize they were conned. And it hasn't happened on mass yet. But we are getting
articles like this. Trump's pro-Israel cabinet picks upset Muslims who voted for him. Some of the
Muslims that were actually campaigning for Trump in places like Dearborn, Michigan, are now
writing letters asking Biden to safeguard Palestine, safeguard, safeguard rights for Muslim Americans.
And it's like, you guys voted for Trump. And two weeks later, you're already backtracking,
begging President Biden and Kamala Harris to do something. We'll break all of this down because
we have a lot to break down. Trump takes office in about 56, 57 days.
So we have this pro-democracy community. Make sure you drop a like, subscribe, and let's jump in with Trump's Truth Social Post that he sent at 4.3 a.m. Eastern Time last night.
So Tom Fitten sent out a post saying, good news. Reports are the incoming real Donald Trump administration prepared to declare a national emergency.
Again, prepare to declare a national emergency and will use military assets to reverse the Biden invasion through a mass deportation,
program. What an insane thing to be posting at 4 a.m. But again, when somebody tells you
who they are, believe them. There's a lot I want to break down here, but let's just start
with some simple facts. Donald Trump appointed Christy Noem as the head of the Department
of Homeland Security. Nome has zero, zero experience in this sector. She actually lives
on a border state on the opposite side of the country, so she's not quite equipped, but
what she can be is a lightning rod for criticism while people like Stephen Nguyen.
Miller and Tom Holman pull the strings in the background.
They have more experience in this sector.
They have more commitment to their radical and terrible apocalyptic ideas so they can
pull the strings while Christy Noem is just the face for it.
She's the face on TV, smiling and waving as Donald Trump wants in every single sector.
He did the same thing with Pete Hegsef.
Pete Heggseth is someone who's simply good at defending Donald Trump on TV rather than
actually running an entire military complex.
But the thing is, when Donald Trump says he wants to declare a national emergency and use military assets,
this bypasses the normal legislative processes and basically removes all checks on his executive authority.
This is something that Donald Trump has done time and time again, which is push outside the boundaries of what a normal president would be able to do.
We know that he has presidential immunity, but even before he had presidential immunity, he shut down the entire government over his border wall at one point.
I mean, he wants to stretch what a president can do every single step of the way.
So declaring a national emergency giving the president sweeping powers only expands his executive
authority even more, which is not good for the U.S.
It's also not good to have immigrants deported without due process or without protections
against unreasonable searches and seizures, just having people's houses searched.
That's what I'm seeing here.
What else is the military going to do other than go door to door and try to ask for papers
or something like that. A large-scale deportation program, in my eyes, could also lead to widespread
panic not only among immigrant communities, but among legal residents, people who are scared
that they'll be targeted unfairly. I mean, imagine the Haitian community in Springfield,
Ohio, they were naturalized under the Trump administration. They have been integrated into
the United States, and Donald Trump has said he wants to deport people who have been naturalized.
Families could be torn apart. Children would be separated from families.
And honestly, Tom Homan did that during the first term, he welcomes it.
Mass deportations also would cripple multiple industries reliant on immigrant labor
between the massive tariffs and between the amount of immigrants that work in agriculture
or construction or even hospitality.
I mean, our economy would tank under a second Trump term.
And last but not least, it's just inhumane.
It's inhumane and absolutely terrible to split families apart.
And of course, that part almost doesn't even need to be said.
The only reason I framed it from an economic point of view first is because that
that's what MAGA cares about. Maga cares about the economy. Sometimes you have to frame things
through an economic lens. So Tom Fitten broke this news about Trump's plans and then Trump confirms
it at 4 a.m. He says true. He just says true. The Trump admin is ready and this brings me on
to the next story. This is something that I like to talk about because I have many Muslim family
members. I've told you guys a few times my dad is Muslim, his entire side of the family, they are
Muslim. I grew up embedded in a Muslim community. I am personally not religious, but I've had
many interesting conversations over this election cycle with Muslim voters who are just disillusioned
with our institutions, which I understand. So this article reads, Trump's pro-Israel cabinet
picks upset Muslims who voted for him. And at this point, I don't feel bad. I just think it's,
I mean, if you voted for Donald Trump and then two weeks later, you then get the information
about Trump's cabinet picks, I'm sorry, but the information was always at your fingertips.
That's just your fault at this point. But during the campaign, Trump made several trips to
cities like Dearborn, Michigan, with large Muslim and Arab populations, he called Muslims
for Trump a beautiful movement and tried to just sweep under the rug the fact that he enacted
a Muslim ban during the first week of his presidency in 2017. He claimed he wanted peace. He
wanted to end the wars in the Middle East, but ending the wars in the Middle East is a slippery
way of using political doublespeak that means you want to be super pro-Israel. And none of this
is a commentary on the actual conflict itself. It's a commentary on Muslim voters not really.
Trump's position. So Trump's team includes people like Richard Grinnell and Massad Boulos,
who met with community leaders and assured them that Trump was different. He'd be a candidate to
prioritize peace and diplomacy, and it worked. I mean, these promises swayed Muslim and Arab-American
voters, and they helped Trump win certain key states, key districts. There's footage of Trump
talking to these Muslim leaders and meeting with them, but here's the thing. Just days after
Trump's victory, I don't even think it's been two full weeks yet. Trump has revealed
his true colors with his cabinet picks. He's chosen Marco Rubio, who's staunch supporter of Israel,
which is fine. Israel absolutely has the right to exist, but Muslims did not expect this.
What did Muslim Americans think? He was going to point Rashida to leave to some key position?
I mean, obviously he was going to pick crazy people like Mike Huckabee, and no matter what side of the
situation you're on, Mike Huckabee is objectively very extreme. He thinks that the West Bank shouldn't
exist, that Palestine shouldn't exist as a whole, and that is objectively just an extreme
position. It's as extreme as saying that Israel shouldn't exist. Both of those things are crazy,
but this is Trump's incoming U.S. ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee.
My feeling personally, and I'm speaking only as a person, I think Israel would only be acting
on the property it already owns. I think Israel has titled Eid to Judea and Samaria.
There are certain words I refuse to use. There is no such thing as a West Bank. It's
Judea and Samaria. There's no such thing as a settlement. They're a community.
their neighborhoods, their cities. Okay, so this dude just doesn't think the West Bank exists.
He thinks that it's owned by Israel, and the West Bank settlements are objectively something
that should not be happening. Over here, we have Medi Hassan, one of the leading Muslim
journalists who, quote tweeted this, he said, beyond parody in the original tweet reads,
the Arab Americans who backed Trump in Dearborn Michigan sent him this letter today,
addressed to the White House, urging him to fulfill his promises to the community.
and work on an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and Lebanon.
Immediately, they sent this letter saying,
Dear President-elect Trump.
And this letter gets so sad.
It reads,
On behalf of Lebanese Americans within our Chamber of Commerce,
we congratulate you on your historic return to the White House.
Dearborn, Michigan, a city with the highest concentration of Arab-American voters outside
the Middle East, turned red this presidential election due to you.
In response to your renowned letter addressed to Lebanese Americans dated October 26,
And due to the escalation of Israeli attacks, we are urging your administration and transition
team to apply your political influence in demanding an immediate ceasefire.
Furthermore, our meetings with your team leading up to your historic win underscored the
importance of our dialogue in matters pertaining to Lebanon.
Oh, sweetheart, your dialogue does not matter anymore, homie, it's over.
These engagements have already led to robust lines of communication.
Further, we believe your team's leadership is ready.
It's just there's a hint of desperation all throughout this letter.
Like, please, please do not do it.
Watch this CNN segment.
The same desperation exists here where this uncommitted Michigan delegate who refused,
refused to vote for Harris or endorse Harris, went on CNN to plead with President Biden,
to plead with him.
It looks like ethnic cleansing.
It sounds like ethnic cleansing.
It's an ethnic cleansing campaign in Gaza and West Bank in southern Lebanon.
And Mike Huckabee was just named as the guy who,
who's going to oversee the final stages of that campaign.
And so our message right now is to President Biden.
You've got to do something about this, President Biden.
Stand up for once to Netanyahu before Donald Trump successfully gets away with
pinning this legacy of this ethnic cleansing campaign on you and you alone forevermore.
I don't even know what to say about this.
I'm not even making fun of the guy, but just think about what's happening here.
The Chiron reads, Uncommitted Movement looks ahead to Trump presidency.
This guy was uncommitted.
He has political power in the state of Michigan, a key, swing, state.
He's even a delegate, but he refused to commit to Kamala Harris.
He refused to vote for Kamala Harris.
And then after Donald Trump appoints Mike Huckabee, the dude that I was just showing you,
I mean, Mike Huckabee is objectively, no matter what side of the situation you're on,
you can't just say that the West Bank does not exist and it's owned by Israel.
That's not okay.
Now that he sees Mike Huckabee is in this position, he's begging President Biden.
And it's like, dude, do you have no force?
foresight whatsoever. Do not understand the fundamentals of politics. Trump has openly said he's been
pro-Israel. Trump has openly supported Israel and its ambition to take over all of Palestinian land.
Jared Kushner said he wants to turn Gaza into beachfront property. The idea that this wasn't so
open and obvious is just absurd. It's absurd. He's saying this way too late. And this brings me back
to this article. U.S. Muslim leaders who supported Republican Donald Trump to protest,
against the Biden administration's support for Israel are now deeply disappointed and scared by
Trump's cabinet picks.
Quote, Trump won because of us and were not happy with the Secretary of State Pick and
others, said Rabbi Yule Chad Hurry, a Philadelphia investor who chaired the abandoned Harris
campaign and co-founded Muslims for Trump.
Muslim for Trump co-founder is now pissed.
Muslim support for Trump helped him win Michigan and may have factored into other swing
state wins, strategists believe. Muslim support for Trump helped them win Michigan and may have
factored into other swing state wins, strategists believe, or just contributed to an overall
environment where people create this permission structure. Hey, it's okay if you're Muslim or it's
okay if you're a Latino and you vote for Trump. But Trump picked Republican Senator Marco Rubio,
a staunch supporter of Israel for Secretary of State. And honestly, Marco Rubio is not even like
that super extreme, but Marco Rubio thinks that Israel should exist. And he thinks that Israel needs
to do anything, to root out Hamas, and that goes against what every single Muslim thinks.
Muslims want Israel to minimize civilian casualties, minimize civilian casualties.
Trump nominated Mike Huckabee, a former Arkansas governor, and staunch pro-Israel conservative.
This guy is staunch. He backs, he does not back a two-state solution, sorry. He says it is unworkable,
and he backs Israeli occupation of the West Bank. Marco Rubio, as far as I can tell, does support a two-state solution.
extreme as somebody like Mike Huckabee.
Quote, we are very disappointed, said the executive director of the American Muslim
Engagement and Empowerment Network.
It seems like this administration has been packed entirely with neo-conservatives and extremely
pro-Israel, pro-war people, which is a failure on the side of President Trump.
What did you expect, Tommy?
Did you expect them to put in, like, pro-Palestine?
Like, do you expect Trump to have a cabinet full of Muslims?
Have you ever listened to anything Trump has ever said?
Sorry, it's just pissing me off because I've had these conversations with so much.
many Muslims and people just refuse to listen. So the backlash has been swift.
Immediate backlash. These leaders said Trump won because of us. We are not happy.
Others said that a cabinet is going on Zionist overdrive. Even Trump's promises of diplomacy
now seem hollow because these cabinet picks signal a full embrace of the neo-conservative agenda
of continuing the wars, of doubling down and maybe even provoking Iran a little bit,
which, of course, I hate Iran too, but for Muslim voters in places like Dearborn, this is all
a bitter pill to swallow.
They supported Trump to protest Biden's handling of Gaza, which is fine if you disagree with
that, but you did that only to see Trump double down on the policies they fundamentally oppose.
And the reason I'm being so, like, snarky about it is because it was all so obvious.
Can you guys let me know in the comment section?
Was this not incredibly obvious?
Did I not say this on my show 100 times?
And it's not the first time Trump has betrayed a key voting block after security.
hearing their support. Remember his promises to farmers during the trade war about tariffs or his
vows to middle class families before passing tax cuts for the rich immediately? Now Muslim voters
are seeing the same exact pattern. Trump tells you what he wants to hear. He lies to your face
in order to win your vote. Then he pivots to the most extreme version of his agenda immediately.
And these cabinet picks aren't just a disappointment. They're rewarding for anyone else who
believes Trump will stick to his word. I will leave you with that. If you enjoy this video,
