Starting point is 00:00:00 Lawyer up, bitch. That's what one Republican senator has told Donald Trump Jr. as this fallout continues from him taking what essentially is a bribe from a Russian oligarch. Now, I'm going to walk you through all of this. And we actually have a new reporting from ABC News that really dives into not only what's happening with Russia, but with Donald Trump's own corruption and the way that they are literally fleecing billions and billions and dollars. from you and me in the form of government contracts. Now, I want to bring you through this because he's, the thing is, they're doing this shit out in the open, but doing it out in the open. Donald Trump isn't doing it behind closed doors. He's on stage behind the seal, the president of the United States saying that they are investing billions of dollars into Donald Trump Jr.'s own companies.
Starting point is 00:00:59 Here's just a bit of that. In a tremendous victory for our country and for the city of Baltimore, Anderil is investing $3.7 billion in a state-of-the-art shipyard that will be known forever as Arsenal 2. It's one of the most, one of the biggest and one of the most significant shipyards. I think soon, very soon will be anywhere in the world will be as significant as any. That's what we're looking for. Right here in Sparrow's Point, you'll build the next generation. of American submarines, including autonomous subs,
Starting point is 00:01:36 torpedo tubes and critical components for our cutting-edge Virginia-class attack submarines, the greatest and quietest ever built. And thanks to record funding from my administration, the Republicans in Congress, the U.S. Navy is also contributing an additional $2.9 billion to support the shipyard with the possibility of ultimately, together with with a lot of great patriots, $21 billion in future purchases, this is going to be a big component for our future military.
Starting point is 00:02:10 Again, that's Andurral Industries. And they are supposedly investing $3.7 billion into the next American shipyard. Okay. But here's some reporting on that. Trump's son's investments have won billions in Pentagon contracts since his election. this just came out today. President Donald Trump announced $6.6 billion with AI defense company and Dural Industries on Tuesday. Yesterday, the most recent government funding agreement into a company with investment ties to the president's son. The Trump administration announced the Navy will
Starting point is 00:02:47 support $2.9 billion of the total cost to help create a new facility in Baltimore County, Maryland that will manufacture critical parts of the Virginia-class nuclear-powered fast attack submarine. Goes on to say here, 1789 Capital, which is a venture capital firm, that lists Donald Trump Jr. is one of six partners along with three founders, claimed a major stake in Endurall in June 2025 from a $2.5 billion investment into the company. Since that investment, there's been a lot of success. Endurall has been awarded 135 other contracts with the U.S. government and to date has received around $1.8 billion from those agreements, according to active defense contracts. posted to sam.gov, the official system for government contracting. Wow, what great fortune Donald Trump Jr. has. How prescient he is that he could find a relatively unknown company, invest a bit, and then get awarded all these contracts. Could it be that Endural Industries is the
Starting point is 00:03:52 best company for the job? Or could it be that Endural Industries is being favored because the President's son is the one who's invested. You tell me, I don't know, we'll never know. We'll never know for sure. An AB News analysis found defense companies backed by the president's sons, including Endural, have now raked in more than $6 billion in active or promised government contracts since those investments were made, according to the government's official contract reporting. Six billion dollars. That is so much money. That is so much money. Y'all, I don't even like, we have to clean this shit up. I don't know if this is illegal.
Starting point is 00:04:33 Probably not. Because what the Trumps have taught us is that if it's not illegal, they're going to do it. But it's certainly unethical. And there is any sort of criminal exposure. We absolutely need to go after each and every one of them. It's this sort of shit. It's this sort of shit. Like, yeah, attacking our democracy.
Starting point is 00:04:56 Bad enough. But it's really the. this sort of shit, when you're not only attacking our democracy, but also the competitiveness of our markets and awarding contracts to people close to the president, that's when shit gets really bad. Okay, this is not good. This is not, this is not a sign of a healthy country, a healthy government, a healthy economy, or a healthy democracy.
Starting point is 00:05:18 Now, the congressional oversight Democrats are demanding the Pentagon's inspector general investigate the approved deals. Okay. My thing is like, good. Yeah, we should demand. it, but bro, really? Are we just sending letters? That's it?
Starting point is 00:05:32 Is that it? Can someone not put their body in front of a building and make a stink? Can we not do something a little bit more aggressive, a little bit more visual than just like saying, hey, hey, someone better look into this. Come on. I mean, this is fundamentally why we just have to, we have to get more aggressive Democrats into office. Spokesperson for the Trump brothers denied wrongdoing.
Starting point is 00:06:02 I'm not even going to read you this bullshit response. The White House didn't even comment. And yeah, they're making billions of dollars. Now, ranker, ranking member Huffman spoke about Donald Trump Jr's $670 million taxpayer-funded deal. And here's that. I want to also ask about Vulcan. Donald Trump Jr., name partner in the 7,000.
Starting point is 00:06:28 1789 Capital in August of 2025. They took an equity stake in Vulcan. Three months later, the administration commits $620 million. The largest loan that the Pentagon's Office of Strategic Capital has ever made, and it went out without competitive bids. Without the technical disclosures that are used to verify whether a project is even viable before public money goes in, that was waived. So Ms. Williams, should the American people be concerned that the president's son has a financial
Starting point is 00:07:03 stake in a company that just received this huge windfall from the Pentagon? So we got that happening, that stuff out in the open. And the thing that's interesting to me is like, that's bad enough. And you're getting $6 billion, $6 billion. And you can't even pay for your own wedding. You got to borrow money from a Russian oligarch. I say borrow money because according to Donald Trump and Donald Trump Jr., they paid the money back. It doesn't matter because as one Republican senator said to Donald Trump Jr., lawyer up, bitch.
Starting point is 00:07:40 The Wall Street Journal's conservative editorial board delivered a blunt warning to President Donald Trump's family. Better lawyer up. Does the Trump family know what is about to hit them? The board asked warning of subpoenas, investigations, and congressional testimony over the family's cryptocurrency investments and other deals. that have enriched them while President Trump is in office. The editorial board pointed to Senator John Curtis as a reason for the Trump family might want to pay attention. A toaster is a wedding gift, a private island party paid for by Putin-connected oligarch to something
Starting point is 00:08:10 else. I'm glad what, I don't know who that man is. Truly, Senator John Curtis, I don't know who you are. We should get him on the channel. Does you want to come on our channel? We should try to get him on. I would love to talk to him about this. Because I'll tell you what, this is a thing that goes beyond party lines.
Starting point is 00:08:25 we've got to stop this shit. We've got to. First thing is winning the midterms in November. That's the first step. Second step, we need more Republicans like this signed on to going after corruption no matter where it is. And I'm going to say it. I don't care.
Starting point is 00:08:42 It's truly folks like, y'all are going to get mad at me, I'm just going to say it. Folks like Nancy Pelosi, who made hundreds of millions of dollars while in office doing very, very strategic, and some would say, Nancy Pelosi, way too talented of a traitor, making hundreds of millions of dollars off of access to her information to the government, made it harder for us to be the party who can be against corruption when it looks like this. Because the thing is, to voters, it doesn't matter, whether it's $6 billion in front of your face
Starting point is 00:09:23 or $50 million on a stock trade behind your back. I think some voters are like, hey, how bad it can it be if they're doing it right out in the open, you know? So, sorry, sorry. I want better, I want better leaders and I want to go after corruption no matter where it is. And so I'd be very interested to talk to Senator John Curtis about that. All right. Truly like father, like son, like, sure, Donald Trump Jr. says he's paying back. the money, okay? I don't trust a liar. And when it came to the ads that our taxpayers, our taxpaying
Starting point is 00:10:01 dollars paid for for Donald Trump to promote himself on TV, within the course of a day, the Trump administration said they were paying him back, and then within an hour or later, the Save America PAC said they're actually not paying him back. So is Donald Trump Jr. going to pay back that? Probably not. I'd like to see the receipts. So anyways, this should be. piss me off. Does it piss you off? It pisses me off so much. So much. I don't, and again, I don't care if it's happening where it's happening. It's this sort of stuff that makes it so that people feel like they cannot trust the government. They feel like institutions work against them. And it gives people a sense of hopelessness that allows folks like Donald Trump to take power
Starting point is 00:10:48 and to keep it. So we have to, we have to stop it. no matter where it comes from. And I'll see you soon. Bye. Thank you so much for watching. We're live every Tuesday at 7 p.m. Eastern, and we have new videos daily. Now, if you want a little bit more,
