Starting point is 00:01:12 Massive protests against Donald Trump and his criminal regime are erupting across the world. That very first clip I just shared, that's Donald Trump's effigy being burned during a protest that featured thousands of people in Mexico City. In the second clip that was played shortly thereafter were thousands of protesters, could even be tens of thousands of protesters, at Powderhorn Park in Minneapolis, protesting Donald Trump's Gestapo, his ICE and Border Patrol, occupying Minneapolis and their cold-blooded murder
Starting point is 00:01:49 of Renee Nicole Good. Say her name. The protests in Minneapolis were huge, and then there were protests that we were seeing across the United States. Massive protests in New York City, massive protests in Los Angeles, in Austin, and other major cities. The people in the United States want Donald Trump impeached.
Starting point is 00:02:14 They want this criminal regime that is repressing the people of the United States. They want this criminal regime gone. Just look at what's happened over the past 24 hours as well. As Donald Trump has surged an additional 1,000 paramilitary Iska Stop, to invade Minneapolis, taking the total to 3,000 ICE and Border Patrol Gestapo, invading Minneapolis, also as Donald Trump tries to take away billions in child care service funding by the federal government to blue states, including Minneapolis, and as they shut down all of the Department of Agriculture funding to Minnesota, Minneapolis, other blue states and
Starting point is 00:03:00 Blue Cities. What is Donald Trump doing? Well, Donald Trump has ordered, according to the Daily Mail. He's officially ordered Special Forces commanders in the United States military to draw up a plan for the invasion of Greenland. This is getting serious and very specific. He's made an order about an invasion of Greenland, which could be imminent. Now, the one thing holding it back is that senior military figures, to the Daily Mail believe that such an invasion would destroy NATO would be unlawful. Donald Trump doesn't care and seems that he's more interested in destroying NATO right there. Now, in response, what we're also learning is G.B. reports that the United Kingdom may be sending troops into Greenland in order to call Donald Trump's bluff after Donald Trump's takeover threats.
Starting point is 00:03:57 So this article goes on to talk about how the U.K. along with its European allies are saying, well, why don't we just put our troops there and say, look, we are doing a NATO surge in Greenland, call Donald Trump's bluff, prove that it's not about security against Russia or China in Greenland because Greenland would already be protected by the NATO alliance already.
Starting point is 00:04:24 America already has multiple defense treaties with Greenland and Denmark. The United States can build as many military, bases as it basically wants there. It already has military bases. So this is just about Donald Trump and Maga. As they've said, they're the predators. They consider themselves the predators of the Western Hemisphere. And as predators, they want to take it over because they want just the control. They want to dominate it. And they want to destroy NATO. But these predators are also very pathetic, as predators most frequently are.
Starting point is 00:05:02 Because one of the things that, again, has taken place in the past 24 hours, now the United States Embassy to Venezuela through the United States Department, United States State Department, is urging all American citizens immediately leave Venezuela. This is how it's being reported on state regime media on Fox. U.S. warns Americans to leave Venezuela immediately. as armed militias set up roadblocks. Armed militias in Venezuela known as collectivos are reportedly setting up roadblocks to search vehicles for evidence of U.S. citizenship. But I'm confused state regime media.
Starting point is 00:05:46 Didn't you and Donald Trump say that people in Venezuela were celebrating the United States invasion and that all these opposition pro-democracy forces were dancing in the streets of Caracas? But now the United States Embassy and Caracas is saying all Americans need to leave immediately because they will be subject to torture or murder by the current authoritarian regime in Venezuela, Delci Rodriguez, Diadados Cabello, Maduro's crew who's still running Venezuela. So I guess as Donald Trump, what did you call the guy, Mr. Exxon, because you don't know the names of the oil company executive. So you would say, Mr. Chevron, Mr. Exxon.
Starting point is 00:06:29 Well, I probably rarely agree with Mr. Exxon on a lot of things when he said that Venezuela is uninvestable and that there's no way to actually get in there and do business there. Perhaps Mr. Exxon knew a little bit more than you did, Donald. Here's how state regime, known as Fox. Here's state regime media is reporting. The U.S. government issued a new security alert Saturday, urging Americans in Venezuela to leave immediately, citing security concerns and the U.S. government's inability to provide emergency assistance, according to the U.S. Embassy in Caracas. Those risks include wrongful detention,
Starting point is 00:07:10 torture, in detention, terrorism, kidnapping, arbitrary enforcement of laws, crime, civil unrest, and poor health and infrastructure. But I thought that everything was great. Didn't you say that Donald Trump in your regime? Oh, wait a minute. Everything you say is absolutely false. And again, while the American people are suffering right now, if they're able to get a paycheck, psychologically torture living paycheck to paycheck, are they going to be able to afford rent? Americans can't afford rent. They can't afford homes. They can't afford a mortgage. Their health care is being ripped away. The Affordable Care Act subsidies were not extended by MAGA. They've blocked it. even though there was a bipartisan vote in the House to extend the Affordable Care Act subsidies,
Starting point is 00:07:59 Trump and the Magas in the Senate are still blocking it right now. And so people lost their Obamacare plans. They're affordable care plans that have kept them alive. But folks, the Trump regime's priorities are, let's take a look what they've talked about in the past 24 hours. RFK Jr. Post the following. reports coming out of Germany show the government sidelining patient autonomy and limiting people's abilities to act on their own convictions when they face medical decisions.
Starting point is 00:08:34 That is why Friday I sent a letter to Germany's Federal Minister of Health. Dude, who are you, R of K Jr.? You're the worst health, you're like the anti-health person, the worst health and human services person. United States, history, why do you care about Germany? Leave them alone. I think that other countries probably have a better command of health care than the United States, as Aurora Lulik says, who do you think you are exactly? Like, Germany's not a colony. Take care of your own people. We're doing just fine. Stay the hell out. All of these Trump regime people, all of them are freaking predators, one after the other. Now, with all of this going on as protests are erupting
Starting point is 00:09:18 across the United States and across the world. That first one you saw was the protest in Mexico City, again, where Trump's, that doll of Trump was being burned in, his effigy was being burned. You also have the Trump White House, the official White House account making posts like this, a photo of an ICE officer shooting a black man in the face with some sort of non-lethal gas rounds,
Starting point is 00:09:47 which could be lethal. I just want to be clear. They're called non-lethal. They could kill people, shooting somebody in the face with gas and noxious substances. And this is what the White House says. Stand with ice, stand with law enforcement.
Starting point is 00:10:04 And so they're showing, I mean, just look at this. As Aaron Rupar writes, why is this Trump thug brandishing his gun like this? I mean, again, you have these Gestapo who are approaching people who are engaged in their first Amendment rights of peaceful protests because ICE has invaded their peaceful cities and is harassing
Starting point is 00:10:25 and terrorizing people. And they're shooting them in the face. I mean, they killed Renee and Nicole Good. They're shooting other people in the face. Then they're promoting that as stand with ice. While this is taking place as well over the weekend, Christy Noem, who's a terrorist, Christy Noem and Todd Lyons, he's the acting head of ice, they published a memo that was just made public. And according to this new memo that was just made public, they say that as long as they use funds from what Donald Trump refers to as his one big beautiful bill, which I refer to as the disastrous bill, the one that destroyed people's Medicaid and health care and was tax cuts for the billionaires. So the position that the Trump regime is taking is that if they use funding from the one big, beautiful bill, I hate that name, I'm telling you what their argument is, to in any way fund an ICE detention center, they can ignore a federal judge's order that requires ICE to allow members of Congress access to the detention facilities. because under existing law, members of Congress have an absolute right to visit detention centers without notice. They're members of Congress.
Starting point is 00:11:48 They were able to look at it. The Trump regime was preventing them from doing this. A federal judge ordered the Trump regime. The law says that members of Congress can go inside these detention facilities. And now the position by ICE and Christine Home and Border Patrol and all of them is no. We're not letting the members of Congress in because of the protests in Minneapolis. And now that we're funding some of these facilities with money from the disastrous budget bill, which they call the one big beautiful bill,
Starting point is 00:12:20 that allows us to not comply with the judge's order that says you have to let the members of Congress in. And this is the regime that calls themselves transparent. I mean, they are hiding torture in these detention centers, are concentration camps. You get that, right? They are torturing human beings in these detention centers. A lot of them are privately funded
Starting point is 00:12:47 and are private businesses making a ton of money Trump's right-wing oligarch friends. They own a lot of these detention facilities, but there's torture taking place in them. Why else do they not want to allow the members of Congress to visit? Because the people are being starved
Starting point is 00:13:04 in these detention centers. They don't have shit. showers or toilets and they're being shoved into rooms like animals shouldn't be treated this way. That's what's going on behind the scenes there. And it's absolutely, absolutely disgusting. I want to also mention Iran. And let's be very clear. Here on the Midas Touch Network, our hearts are thought.
Starting point is 00:13:28 I wish I could do more other than let the people of Iran who were under an internet blackout know. And those who are, of course, are here with family. members there that we support democracy in Iran right here. We support pro-democracy there. And for all of the people there who are protesting and risking their lives, you know, it is an incredibly difficult, challenging thing that they're doing. And we know from a lot of the reporting right now, from some really good reporters who are finding out what's happening despite the internet blackout, is that these protesters are getting mutilated, shot and killed by the Iranian regime right now. And there's just a lot of mixed messages coming out from Donald Trump.
Starting point is 00:14:16 It's like he wants to take credit. So he's making posts saying, you know, this is what freedom looks like. If you shoot the protesters, we're going to go to war. We're going to send boots on the ground. America's locked and loaded and ready to go. And then he says with, like, there's a, like, we know that there are lots of people who have died. And then Donald Trump's now like, they died because of stampedes. That's why they're dying because of the stampedes.
Starting point is 00:14:44 Well, you've threatened now that you were going to go to war. So are you going to go, are you going to do another? Because you've now created that situation, Donald, where you said you're going to war. So now is America going to war with Iran? Because that was what your threat was. If they killed the protesters, they're killing the protesters. So now what? So now you go to war with Greenland, you go to war with Iran.
Starting point is 00:15:05 You go to war with Venezuela, which you call a legal operation, which is ridiculous. You threaten wars with Cuba, Colombia. You threaten to bomb Mexico. And that's why they're protesting there. I mean, what the hell is even going on right now? But despite the fact that, like, you know the facts about what's happening in Venezuela. I shared with you, you know, you read with the State Department said, but Donald Trump's like, Venezuela is doing great right now. I mean, what are our social media posts? I love the Venezuela people. I'm already making Venezuela rich and safe again. Congratulations. And thank you to all those people who are making this possible. It's not safe and it's not rich. Look, we all agree Maduro's a bad guy and a really bad guy. And he was illegitimate. He lost the election to Maria Karina Machado's pick.
Starting point is 00:15:59 and Mundo Gonzalez. That's the reality of what happened. And Maduro's a bad guy. But the question is, should there have been an invasion of Venezuela regime change, where now you are not supporting the pro-democracy forces, you're still supporting the authoritarian regime, Delci Rodriguez, and Diadados Cabello from the Maduro regime. There's massive repression, uninvestable, as Mr. Exxon said,
Starting point is 00:16:28 the American people should through their representative should vote. I mean, that's what war powers is all about. You don't have the authority to do this without Congress. I mean, what are we doing here, folks? So that's what's taking place. We'll keep you posted every step of the way. Hit subscribe. Help us get to 6 million subscribers.
