Starting point is 00:00:02 Happy 4th of July. One of the things I'm not going to allow Donald Trump to do is take away my ability to celebrate our Independence Day. And yes, this country is extremely complicated. It is at times disappointing. It is at times depressing. It at times can surprise you. And that is one of the enraging, beautiful miracles about this country. We're ever changing. And truly, we don't know where it's going. But quite often, it's going in the right direction. and I am wearing my red, wait, let me show you, white and blue to celebrate. Because you know what, it's 250 years, and Donald Trump has only been here for a few of them,
Starting point is 00:00:42 and I'm just going to remind you that Donald Trump is not this country. This country is much bigger than Donald Trump. Now, Donald Trump is trying to celebrate the 250th year today, and he got met with protesters on both sides that are ruining his day, and it's turning out to be, one that's going to maybe be for the record books because well first off this is how the day started with one I mean this is just the metaphor
Starting point is 00:01:11 above all metaphors look at this who I wonder should we watch that one more time let's watch one more time yeah that's kind of how it feels right the 250 we're trying our best we're trying our best now Donald Trump woke up today and he chose violence.
Starting point is 00:01:54 He woke up, and what did he want to do on the 4th of July on our 250th day anniversary? Well, he wanted to compare John Alsop to Peeby Herman, which I just don't even understand this. Like, is this... Peeble Herman is very handsome. John Alsop looks very handsome in this picture
Starting point is 00:02:11 of the President of the United States. Posted this at 219. In the morning, he also posted this with James Tilarico, I guess, missing it too. Okay. I mean, he's kind of running out of stuff, isn't he? He's got, I mean, there are things he could be posting about happening today. There are Nazis, masked Nazis, interestingly, marching through D.C. with Confederate flags to celebrate the 250th anniversary of our country. Also, notice how the flag is upside down there. Donald Trump could, I don't know, make a post and condemn
Starting point is 00:03:05 that. Someone wrote here did. Someone mentioned the enemy within thoughts, MAGA. Yeah. I mean, Donald Trump said the Democrats are the enemy within. He's also called the free press, the enemy of the people. I don't know about that. Maybe the Nazis. If they're such proud Americans, why are they wearing masks and carrying Confederate flags? It's a great question. It is interesting that those on the far right wanted to mock and reject and protest, mask mandates during the height of a pandemic, but then choose to wear it to hide their identity. If you're so proud, if this is truly what you believe, then you should be able to stand up for it. You should be able to put your identity behind it.
Starting point is 00:03:51 One new thing I do, and I invite you to do this too, I do not reply to people on the internet who do not use a picture of themselves and their real name. Not worth it. Not worth it. That's why with this stuff, it kind of feels like being a troll in real life. It's like, unless you can put your face behind what you're doing, you put your full name on it. Okay, you don't really have the courage of your convictions. I've never once hidden from what I believe.
Starting point is 00:04:20 Someone wrote, the flags are hung wrong to mock the country, Confederate flags to show their traitors, and an outdated flag that incorporates who colonize our country before we gained independence. Let me act shocked that Maga, ICE Nazis are wasted. I mean, yeah. How many members of ice do you think are in this? One, two, a quarter. They also went to the period around D.C. and around 400 white nationalists called the Patriot Front. Here's more footage of them. I think this is, where is this? It looks like it's in front of, yeah, it's in front of the train station.
Starting point is 00:05:05 Oh, yeah. You're doing good, bud. You're doing good. We got plenty of stuff. How many doers we got? We're up to 460 now. Let's go. That's incredible.
Starting point is 00:05:21 What's up, YouTube? You guys happy 250, guys. Happy 250, I know it's hard to see this screen. Can we get on? Can we get ones in the chat? If audio, video, all that's good, can we get ones? Is everybody doing okay if we got? I mean, what losers?
Starting point is 00:05:37 What losers? I challenge him to a bench press competition. I guarantee you I could lift more. Medi Hassan said maybe Republicans should spend more time condemning stuff like this and less time condemning the mayor of New York. And here's just a little bit of information about this group here. They're called Patriot Front, as I said. They're an image-obsessed organization that rehabilitated the explicitly fascist agenda
Starting point is 00:06:05 of Vanguard America with garbage patriotism. Patriot Front focuses on theatrical rhetoric. and activism that can be easily distributed as propaganda for its chapters across the country. Part of the manifesto says this. An African, for example, may have lived, worked, and even had been classified as a citizen in America for centuries, that he is not American. He is, as he likely prefers to be labeled, an African in America. The same rule applies to those who are not of the founding stock of our people, as well as to those who do not share there. The common unconscious that permeates throughout our greater civilization in the European desporia.
Starting point is 00:06:41 diaspora sorry um yeah this is just completely racist also not true europeans we're not the first ones here so there you go it's just it's all just so stupid isn't it another part of the manifesto states our people must learn to internalize their natural identities and come to connect that reemerging identity identity with their homeland again if you're one of identify with your natural identity. Move back to Europe, bitch. Also, this is the superior race? This?
Starting point is 00:07:23 Okay. This poor woman. Here they are riding the train. Someone wrote, it's crazy when you see a photo for the first time and recognize in a hundred years historians are going to use it as shorthand to summarize the whole area you're living through right now. She's just like, are you kidding me?
Starting point is 00:07:43 I know, I'm sorry. here we go again. And someone else pointed out again that it's the racist who are wearing masks. But on the other side of things, a large crowd moved through D.C. chanting during the Declaration of Independence, oh, sorry, with a banner of a Declaration of Independence chanting 8647.

They're like trying the best they can to control the narrative on this stuff and they can. It's totally getting away from them. Well, I'm going to say America is a complicated, beautiful, tragically, disappointing, frustratingly, enraging, something of a country. But it gave me the life I have and I'm grateful for it. And I just want to do everything I can to make it better. part of that means squashing those Nazi freaks
Starting point is 00:09:32 and making sure that as many good people as possible have an opportunity to speak for themselves. I hope you have a great Fourth of July. I'll see you soon. Bye.
