Stephen Miller on November 1st, 24 days before the election. This isn't complicated if you vote for Kamala. Liz Cheney becomes Defense Secretary. We invade a dozen countries. Boys in Michigan are drafted to fight boys in the Middle East. Millions die. We invade Russia. We invade nations in Asia.

World War III, nuclear winter. That was Stephen Miller predicting what the Trump administration is doing right now. And there was truly a shocking. interview on CNN yesterday with Jake Tapper that left him speechless and left me speechless and was the biggest sign of where we actually are today. We have to stare directly at this. We had to stare directly at this. It's happening. This is happening. We must look at it. Now, I have Stephen Miller's interview. I have Chuck Schumer confirming what we all feared. First, here is this interview with Jake Tapper. Now, Stephen Miller is unhinged. This is

four and a half million views. It needs to have much more. Every America needs to see where this administration is trying to take us. Your important topic, the premier of Greenland and the premier of Denmark and other Danish officials are responding to a Twitter post from your wife, Katie Miller, herself, a former Trump White House official, showing Greenland covered with an American flag saying soon after that was posted, President Trump repeated the claim that the U.S. needs Greenland for national security reasons. the Danish Prime Minister responded to this in an interview earlier today, as reported by Bloomberg, quote, I believe one should take the American president seriously when he says it wants Greenland,

but I will also make it clear that if the U.S. chooses to attack another NATO country militarily, then everything stops, including NATO, and thus the security that has been established since the end of the Second World War. Can you rule out that the U.S. is ever going to try to take Greenland by force? Well, let me go back a step. The president has been clear for months now. So I know you're treating this as breaking news. The president has been clear for months now that the United States should be the nation

that has Greenland as part of our overall security apparatus. Right, but your wife posted that like hours after the Venezuela operation. That's why it's newly relevant. No, no, and I'll talk with you about it for an hour. I think it's really important conversation. I just wanted to reset, Jake, by making clear that it's been the formal position of the U.S. government since the beginning of this administration, frankly, going back into the previous Trump administration, that Greenland should be part of the United States. The president has been very clear about that. That is the formal position of the U.S. government. Right, but can you say that military action against Greenland is off the table?

It would be military action against Greenland. Greenland has a population of 30,000 people, Jake. The real question is, by what right does Denmark assert control over Greenland? What is the basis of their territorial claim? What is their basis of having Greenland as a colony of Denmark? The United States is the power of NATO. For the United States to secure the Arctic region to protect and defend NATO and NATO interests, obviously Greenland should be part of the United States.

And so that's a conversation that we're going to have as a country. That's a process we're going to have as a community of nation. So you can't. take it off the table that the U.S. would use military force to seize Greenland. You can't take it off the table. I understand, Jake, I understand you're trying very hard to, which again is your job. I respect it. It's great to get exactly the headline, right, that catchy headline. I'm trying to get an answer to question. That says Miller refuses to rule out. The United States should have Greenland as part of the United States. There's no need to even think or talk about this in the context that you're asking of a military.

military operation. Nobody's going to fight the United States militarily over the future of Greenland. Well, that is literally what NATO countries just said that if this were to happen, that's exactly what would happen is that we would essentially be starting a war. Now, when this went viral, here is what Senator Patty Morrie said. You let me know if you think this is meeting the moment. If you feel like you're losing your mind as this administration plays footsie with the idea of in all caps, invading Greenland, that you're not alone. Let me be clear. America will not invade a NATO ally. My Republican colleagues need to join me in making that crystal clear. I don't know, man. It's just not doing it for me. It's not doing it for me. I don't know what, like,

what are the Democrats doing? What are you doing? We're sending to tweets. I can do that. You just said something I can do. You just did what I can do as a YouTuber. I can send that tweet. what are you doing? You are an elected official. Are you going to rally? I guess, I mean, are we, should we, I don't know. Do we just take this into our own hands? Do we have to rally? Do we have to protest? Do we have to organize? I guess, I guess, call me naive. I guess I kind of felt like the reason why you're in the position of power is because you're a leader. That's not leading. This is not leading. I'm sorry to pick on Patty Murray. This is the thing I saw. But truly, no one is doing a better job. No one is doing a better job.

I know we're not in power right now. We can't create laws. But I just have to believe that if Mitch McConnell or whoever else wasn't in power and Biden was doing this shit, do you not think that they would have people marching in the streets? Of course they would. Of course they would. When are we going to have our January 6th?

The difference is that we're entitled to it because they're going against. everything this country stands for, everything that we believe in, we need to start thinking appropriately about this. And soon will come the moment for action. Someone said this Greenland stuff is unhinged and has to stop. No American asked for or voted for it and no serious person anywhere is prepared to countenance it. Someone else said, oh, this is something. So like the Trump campaign posted this. They're trying to call it. Don Roe Doctrine. You can share this image. I made this. I think this is the moron doctrine and it's Trump and the typical face and hair and eyes that we like to display him here on the

channel because this is what most people see when they see Donald Trump. Is an insane person slowly losing their mind. Miller is threatening one of our most loyal allies, Denmark sent troops to help us in Afghanistan and Iraq, losing men in both wars, America, blowing Denmark is It's shameful, it's shameful, but it's what's happening. Someone said, this isn't the Don Roe doctrine. It's America's embrace of the Putin doctrine. I think it's the moron doctrine. Jake Tapper also asked Stephen Miller if there's going to be elections in Venezuela.

The president was very quick to say that the recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize, opposition leader Machado in Venezuela, doesn't have the support in Venezuela to become the next president or the interim leader. I wonder where he got that from, given that her, basically her cutout, Gonzalez, won the election last year, or two years ago, overwhelmingly 70% of the vote or something like that. Why does the president think that Machado should not be the next leader? Why does he think she's weak?

He's going to answer. We already know why. This has been reported on. The reason why is because she won the Nobel Peace Prize and accepted it. And Donald Trump doesn't like that. Now, the Washington Post actually reported that two people close to the White House said the president's lack of interest in boosting Machado, despite her recent efforts to flatter Trump, stem from her decision to accept the Nobel Peace Prize

and award the president has openly coveted, although Machado ultimately said she was dedicating the war to Trump. Her acceptance of the prize was, quote, an ultimate sin, said one of the people, quote, if she had turned it down and said, I can't accept it because it's Donald Trump's, she'd be the president of Venezuela today. So this is a president who's making a president who's making decisions based on his feelings, and they say that women are too emotional to lead. Now, Machado also was on, I'm not going to play this clip, but she was on Fox News yesterday, and was actually a very sad display where she was offering to give it to Trump in order to become president. I just can't believe that's where we are right now. A recent classified

U.S. intelligence assessment determined top members of Nicholas Maduro's regime, including Vice President Delci Rodriguez would best be positioned to lead a temporary government in Caracas and maintain name near-term stability if the autocrat lost power, people familiar with the matter, said. The analysis by the CIA was briefed to President Trump and shared with a small circle of senior administration officials. According to two of the people, it was a factor in Trump's decision to back Maduro's vice president instead of opposition leader and Nobel Peace Prize winner Machado. That's what other people have reported. I think this is probably the government trying to cover its ass over the real reporting about from the

Washington Post that was the longest side let's go back to this interview first of all all Venezuela experts agree all Venezuela experts agree that it would be absurd and preposterous for us to suddenly fly her into the country and to put her in charge and the military would follow her and the security forces would follow her this isn't this is not a serious it's not even a serious question. So should there be an election? The, let me, if you're giving the floor for 30 seconds, let me tell you what we are doing here, Jake.

The United States, this is sort of foundational. The United States is using its military to secure our interests unapologetically in our hemisphere. We're a superpower, and under President Trump, we are going to conduct ourselves as a superpower. It is absurd that we would allow a nation in our own backyard

to become the supply, of resources to our adversaries, but not to us, to hoard weapons from our adversaries, to be able to be positioned as an asset against the United States rather than on behalf of the United States. Sovereign country shouldn't be able to do what they want to do. The Monroe Doctrine and the Trump Doctrine is all about securing the national interests of America. For years, we sent our soldiers to die in deserts in the Middle East to try to build them

parliament. What he's talking about here is basically the U.S. gets to do what it wants. sounds very Nazi-ish, doesn't it? Doesn't it? Now, I have John Thune here, leader of the Republican Senate. I'll show you in just a moment, but Chuck Schumer said this about all this. On the issue of these other nation states, you know, Maduro lost in 24. I wish the previous administration had done more to push him out at that point. But when you start talking about Colombia and Mexico, they're nations that had democratic elections. And we're going to somehow say we're going to superimpose our position on democratically elected states. What message that's the end of the world?

And the whole notion, I mean, I think the first few months people kind of joked about Greenland. But the idea that he's potentially posing a serious military threat, nothing would lead to the absolute destruction of NATO more than American aggressive. action against a long-term ally like Denmark. I asked for some assurances that they were not planning operations in other countries, and I named a few of the ones you mentioned, including Colombia and Cuba. And I was very, very disappointed in their answer. Disappointed. Nice. Here's what John Thune had to say. Leader.

Yeah. Good morning. Good afternoon. Good morning. When the president talks about Cuba, talks about Colombia, and talks about Greenland. Is that just bluster or do you take him at his role? Well, I think the president has demonstrated, at least already, a very strong commitment to peace, whose strength, and especially in this hemisphere. And I think Venezuela delivered or got that message loudly and clearly. And I think other countries in this hemisphere who are cooperating with narco terrorists or in league with China and Russia and Iran and countries like that need to be on no way.

And so I think the presidents, you know, these... They need to be on notice. So what he's saying there is? He agrees with what Trump is doing. Now, Chuck Schumer again, this was his, this is his idea of how to fix this by trusting Republicans. And we have the War Powers Act, which you mentioned. Right. I have the right to put that on the floor.

Tim Cain is the sponsor along with myself and Rand Paul, so it's bipartisan. Right. And the Republicans must... must, if there was ever a time, they must step up to the plate. This is the time. And if they don't, they're going to feel the heat from their constituents. I guess I'll end it like this. This is the man.

They couldn't stand up for us after January 6th to convict Donald Trump during impeachment. You expect them to stand up now? If you're waiting for Republicans, you do the right thing. You will be waiting for eternity. But that's your right idea, hoping Republicans are going to do the right thing. I guess it's fitting this is happening on January 6th because what this is, this is just, of course, this is where it was all going to head. Five years of the day after Donald Trump did the unthinkable to our democracy, he regains power. Now he's doing the

unthinkable to the world.
