every day. Now they've been spending all of their time trying to justify why they think it makes sense that their dear leader, Donald Trump, is getting a $400 million gold-plated jet from the Qataris. So cue in one of their chief propagandists, Sean Hannity, who tries to normalize this all, and he attacks anybody who dare criticize dear leader accepting bribes from the middle east in plain view play the clip despite a flu a slew of recent accomplishments groundbreaking diplomacy uh the legacy state-run media mob still managed to find their new obsession an offer from the government of qatar for a boeing 747 jumbo jet to serve as Air Force One. Do you get more utterly pathetic than that? I don't know. But each and every day,

the depths of depravity that Fox goes through to justify Donald Trump's criminality seems to know no bounds. Going from Sean Hannity to one of the other propagandists on Fox, Jesse Waters. Here, Jesse Waters devotes a segment to talking about the bacteria infested waters that Health and Human Services Secretary RFK Jr. was swimming in and photographed in. Something that would be a clear and present danger to your health that can cause life threateningthreatening injuries swimming with bacteria or swimming in bacteria-infested waters. It could be potentially lethal. And this is what our Health and Human Services Secretary is doing. Here's how Jesse Waters characterizes it. Play this clip. Jesse, would you swim in a sewage-filled creek? That creek looks clean. It doesn't look like it's filled with sewage. And I have seen Pete Hegseth swim miles and miles in a Speedo in the Hudson River, which like you can't even see through. This you can see right through. I think it's fine.

For these clowns, fascist clowns, no offense to real clowns, this is all one big joke to them. They just try to make this all one big humorous segment when people's lives are on the line. Here's another portion of that segment. Let's play it. Terry RFK Jr. is testing his immunity this weekend by jumping into a sewage-filled creek in Washington, D.C., deemed unsafe due to its high levels of bacteria.

But RFK, who's allegedly already survived a brain worm, clearly isn't worried. Katie, I think he also took his grandkid in with him. Hey, it's good for your immune system. I myself have swam in the Potomac. I have to. I didn't get Potomac. It's probably just as bad as this creek,

and I have a friend named Corey, and he ate a raw clam once from the bowels of the Potomac. He survived. So I think it's okay. It's all right. You gotta live a little. Enjoy. Get outside. It can't be worse than the tap water. Come on. So then part of that segment as well, you have Jesse Waters and one of the other hosts, Greg Gutfeld. they're talking about how Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy's kind of biggest claim to fame on his resume is that he was once on the reality TV show called The Real World, and then he was on the reality show called The Real World Road Rules Challenge. And they think it's hilarious that this is the guy responsible for air traffic controllers and air safety when he has no qualifications to do it.

So they make this like a comedic skit where they just think it's all so funny that our air traffic and our air safety is now in the hands of this guy. Watch for yourself. Play this clip. Sean Duffy, obviously a veteran of real world San Francisco. How does the experience from being on real world San Francisco translate into this job? San Francisco, you say? Yes. Well, he's following up for Mayor Pete. I don't know. Greg, I fly out of Newark. It's my home airport and I'm going to the West Coast next week and the Qataris have offered to give me a plane. Fox is not going to have anything. They're not going to give me a hard time about that. No, I don't think so. It's a gift.

It's a gift. It'll go to the Waters Foundation after I'm finished with it. And that's how they try to utterly destroy just serious discourse by making a total mockery of very serious things. We know what a disaster air traffic safety is right now. And Sean Duffy has been going on TV each and every day trying to blame what he calls the Biden Buttigieg administration. It's all their fault. Even though none of these issues were happening under Biden Buttigieg, he goes, this has been an issue for 10 years. And then when Sean Duffy was asked, well, Donald Trump was the president 10 years ago also, so why didn't you fix it then? Oh, Biden Buttigieg's fault as well. Yes, the first Trump administration not fixing things is because of Biden Buttigieg, or maybe it's just y'all are

so incompetent and the fact that your main qualifications are real world road rules challenge. Maybe that's one of the issues. So then Jesse Waters brings on Christine Noem, dog killer, Homeland Security Secretary, cosplayer. She goes out and dresses in the different outfits. She goes in front of Seacott, the concentration camp in El Salvador, posing with her $100,000 Rolex with her thumbs up, you know, basically, by the way, a violation of the Geneva Convention to parade yourself out there in front of prisoners like that. But here she now is saying that the Democratic members of Congress attacked the private security guards in New Jersey and that in Newark. And it's actually the Democratic members who were assaulted there to blame. She says they were the ones who assaulted the private security. This is the dystopian move

that all of these Trumpers do. Whatever actually took place, in this case, the private security assaulting Democratic Congress members, they just said, nope, Democratic Congress members and the Newark mayor, they assaulted the private security guards. And now the Department of Justice is going to go after them. Here, play this clip. I tell you what, Jesse, what happened last Friday was we had members of Congress assaulting law enforcement officers. They were cooperating with criminals to create criminal acts. And then they're saying that they were providing oversight. This wasn't oversight. This was committing felonies.

This was going out and attacking people who stand up for the rule of law. Here's Kristi Noem again. Let's play it. This was going out and attacking people who stand up for the rule of law. Here's Christine Ohm again. Let's play it. ICE officers get up every single day and they love their jobs because they finally get to do their jobs with President Trump in the White House. And the fact that a member of Congress punched them, hit them, body slammed them and then claimed that they were the victims, it's astounding to me that someone would even vote for someone and put them in a place of leadership when they perpetuate something as hypocritical and as criminal as what these individuals did.

So I hope that the rest of the members of the House of Representatives will hold them accountable. They shouldn't be allowed to be on the committees that they're on. In fact, one of them is supposed to be conducting oversight over ICE, and instead she's assaulting them. And they don't deserve to be in the House. They should be censured by it. What's happening in this country and what agendas the Democrats are embracing is absurd, and it's not American. And I'm hoping that the American people recognize it and hold

them accountable for what they're doing for criminal acts against people in this country. And now they've been bringing out this other propagandist, Tricia McLaughlin, who's the Department of Homeland Security, Public Affairs Assistant Secretary. They have her in Fox all of the time. And now she's pushing this line that it was the Democratic members of Congress at this Delaney Hall, at this detention center, this migrant detention center, that they were the ones who ended up attacking the security guards. And maybe the Department of Justice is going to have to prosecute the Democrats and outplay this clip. He's not fighting for American victims. And I'd like to lay out the facts. The fact that it was these three members of Congress who trespassed, broke the law, and stormed that ICE detention facility.

They put law enforcement at risk. They put our detainees at risk. And they put our staff at risk. Had they asked for a tour, we would have happily facilitated one for them. But there was absolutely no notice. And the fact that they put hands, they body slammed, body rammed, push, shove, whatever you want to call it. It was assault on our ICE agents.

So then from that Sean Hannity segment that I started out this video with, you then had Donald Trump being interviewed by Hannity on Air Force One, which I guess Trump wants to replace with Qatari Force One or whatever the hell he's going to be flying in. Here, Donald Trump just blatantly admits to the violation of the Constitution. He goes, why would I turn down the gift? They offered me a gift. Of course, I'm going to accept it. By the way, it then goes to

his presidential library. Why do you need 747 gold-plated jets for your presidential library? This is a security threat. This, in my opinion, is a bribe. It's a clear violation of the emoluments clause. Here's Donald Trump saying in his own words, play this clip. They had a plane, not a new plane at all, but they had a plane. And you know, these planes, the plane that you're on right now is almost 40 years old. And when you land and you see Saudi Arabia and you see UAE and you see Qatar and you see all these, and they have these brand new Boeing 747s mostly, and you see ours next to it, this is like a totally different plane.

It's much smaller. It's much less impressive, as impressive as it is. And, you know, we're the United States of America. I believe that we should have the most impressive plan. So anyway, so they said to me, we would like to, in effect, we would like to make a gift. You've done so many things. And we'd like to make a gift to the Defense Department, which is where it's going. And they said, well, that's nice. Now, some people say, oh, you shouldn't accept gifts for the country. My attitude is, why wouldn't I accept the gift? We're giving to everybody else.

Why wouldn't I accept the gift? Because it's going to be a couple of years, I think, before the Boeings are finished. And they'll be wonderful when they're finished. But that's a long time. Next, Donald Trump then lies and says that he has personally studied the health care industry. He's figured it all out. And he goes, the Democrats are the ones who have raised the price. The Republicans, we've always been trying to lower costs. Literally, as we speak, the Republicans are

trying to get rid of Medicaid. They're trying to eliminate $880 billion that goes to Medicaid. The MAGA Republicans are the ones who have consistently voted against lowering prescription drug prices. Any effort to lower health care costs, the MAGA Republicans have been against. But this is again, this is their strategy. The same way earlier you see the MAGA Republicans attacking Democrats and saying Democrats are the ones who went after the private security guards when it was the opposite. You're seeing them do that again right here and saying the Democrats were the ones who want to increase your health care costs, literally as the Republicans are getting rid of your Medicaid right now. Play this clip. And now after studying the industry,

it's a very complex industry, but I figured it out and I said it's not going to happen. But the Democrats fought very hard to keep the prices of drugs very very high they really ought to blame for this because they should have done something about it and when the Republicans went with requests they they said we're not going to approve it and then Donald Trump goes on and then starts talking about what he calls fat shots and he says he's got a fat friend and that his fat friend gets fat shots. And that's some reason that has to do with an executive order he signed that doesn't have the force of law. That's just a scam that he says he's going to be able to lower health care costs by up

to 50 to 90 percent. He goes 50 to 90 percent. I've lowered health care costs. I did it by an executive order because of my fat friend and his fat shots donald trump says play this clip a friend of mine who's uh slightly overweight to put it mildly went to a drugstore in london and he was able to get one of the fat shots i caught the fat shots the jabs that you lose weight a lot of people laugh at that some people get offended by i don't get offended by anything. I'm just glad I didn't use his name. He's actually a very rich guy.

He's a very successful guy. I bet he's glad you didn't use his name. No, no. He's very happy. He knows exactly who I was talking about. He called. He said, that was interesting. He said he was very concerned that I might use his name.

I might slip. No, he doesn't have to worry. But he went to London and he bought this... ozempic will go over you one of those i guess yeah i'm not sure which one but he bought he bought one of them maybe it was epic and he bought it and he called me he said hey i strange thing happened i just bought a job same company same plant same everything everything was the same. In one case, I paid in New York $1,300. And in London, I'm paying $88. He said, what's going on?

Now, he knew nothing. He's a very smart guy. He's a very rich guy. His big problem is he's seriously overweight. But I don't think the drug worked, okay, to be honest with you. But it makes him feel good anyway. I pointed this out before and let me point it out again. This is just one of Donald Trump's scams.

This way, he says, I'm lowering health care costs, which he's not. While the MAGA Republicans in their tax Office believes there's going to be, what, tens of millions of Americans who will lose healthcare as a result of this policy, lose healthcare. But Donald Trump signs a fake executive order and says 90% healthcare costs, and then he feeds that to his base. And this has real world impacts. I mean, let me show you what's going out there in America. And this was an event that Charlie Kirk had just hosted. And in this event, you'll see that, you know, with all of the crazy stuff that Fox is pushing out, these MAGA people, these really believe this stuff. Like they believe that children are using litter boxes in schools.

And Charlie Kirk just sits up and, oh yeah, that's what's going on. They act like kittens and they pee on themselves and we have to stop it. That's what the Democrats are doing. That has not happened anywhere ever. They make this stuff up. They spread these deranged conspiracies while they pickpocket their own supporters. And while they destroy their own supporters' life, they have them thinking that this stuff is real, but this stuff actually permeates, and these people believe this.

Here, play this clip. My question is more curiosity. You raised the point of furries, furries and having litter boxes in schools. So my question is, how far does this mental illness really go? Have teenagers, because I work at a high school, a Christian high school, and I'm well aware of the psyche of a teenager. Have teenagers actually pulled down their pants, squatted over a litter box, and pooped.

Yes. Really? Yes, and teachers support it. And then they use their hand to cover it up? No, they have, like, the tools like if it was a cat. Oh, and then I was like, do they lick their hands afterwards like a kitty cat? I mean, I'm not sure. How bad is it?

It's bad. Oh, that's, I'm sorry. I'm surprised, too. I'm surprised and shocked. No, you shouldn't be surprised. And again, you're shocked, and I'm going to be very honest. And it's appalling. It means that you have to consume non-mainstream media because this is very well known, right, Sage?

For those of us, if you guys do not know this is happening, I encourage you to reevaluate where you get your news from. Well, you know, there you have it. I wanted to show you that clip at the end so you see how this ecosystem actually results in people thinking that this stuff and you'd be like, what the hell? They believe that those people vote.
