00:51Go to Talkspace.com slash military to get started today.That's Talkspace.com slash military.is absolutely losing it as his propaganda campaign to defame Alex Jeffrey Preti has utterly failed.Donald Trump kicked his disinformation machine into high gear to destroy the legacy of Preti afterhe was murdered in cold blood by Trump's Border Patrol Gestapo in Minneapolis.When all Preti was doing was trying to help a female protester who was being pepper sprayedand brutalized by Donald Trump's Border Patrol Gestapo.You've seen the video, the Border Patrol gang tackle Preti.
01:35They pepper spray him, they pistol whip him.They shoot him multiple times.And then the Trump regime tried to claim that Preti was brandishing his gun at the Border PatrolGestapo, that Pretti arrived in order to do a mass massacre of the Border PatrolGestapo, which was utterly false.Donald Trump's lies were exposed.And Donald Trump sent his.sycophants from his cabinet, Maga Republicans in the House and Senate, who went on TV and said,
02:03if you have a concealed carry permit and you bring a gun to a protest lawfully, you will get killedby the Border Patrol and you will get killed by ICE. Now, Donald Trump has been powerfullyrebuked by the top corporate CEOs in Minnesota, the Chamber of Commerce representing the 60CEOs or more than 60 CEOs have put out a statement powerfully rebuking Trump and his regimefor their despicable behavior, for their immorality for the murder of Alex Jeffrey Preti.The NBA Players Association and numerous superstar NBA players and athletes have come outwith powerful statements rebuking Donald Trump and his dastardly regime.Former President Obama, former President Clinton have come out with powerful statements rebuking
02:51the Trump regime.there is massive panic within the White House right now as they realize that Donald Trump is in big,big trouble.Trump's approval is plummeting even lower.If you can imagine that, as Donald Trump has tried to defame Governor Walls and other leaders in Minnesota,Governor Walls called out Donald Trump and said this is about basic morality.And while we are at it, release the damn Epstein files.Let's not forget this regime is covering us.
03:22up a child sex trafficking ring as well by not releasing the Epstein files. You even had Fox hosts likeMaria Bartaroma pissed at the Trump regime and pissed at these Trump sycophants like James Comerwho were showing up on the morning shows. And she's like, we've all seen the video. What the hellis even going on here? You had Second Amendment groups powerfully rebuking Donald Trump saying,you can tell us that we don't have a lawful right to carry weapons. There's something called aSecond Amendment and Preti was lawfully permitted. He had a permit to carry his gun and he was notbrandishing it. He had a concealed carry permit. That's what he was doing. He was disarmed by one ofthe Border Patrol Gestapo's who ripped the gun from the holster, which was not being brandished
04:11at all. And when he was defenseless, he was brutally murdered. We all saw what happened on that video.Let's go through this step by step so we can show what's going on with the TrumpFirst, let's take a look right here at the Minnesota Chamber of Commerce statement on behalf of more than 60 CEOs in Minnesota.Open letter from CEOs of large Minnesota-based companies and associations.By the way, folks, this is why General Strikes work.If these corporations want to try to use and abuse workers, if workers can stand in solidarity together and stand up and say,you're not going to use and abuse our labor in the name of a regime that is killing us.So we're going on a general strike.
04:56Here's the letter from the CEOs.The business community in Minnesota prides itself in providing leadership and solving problemsto ensure a strong and vibrant state.The recent challenges facing our state have created widespread disruption and tragic loss of life.For the past several weeks, representatives in Minnesota's business communityhave been working every day behind the scenes with federal, state, and local officials to advancereal solutions. These efforts have included close communications with the governor, the White House,the vice president, and local mayors. There are ways for us to come together to foster progress.
05:29With yesterday's tragic news, we are calling for an immediate de-escalation of tensions and for state,local, and federal officials to work together to find real solutions. We have been working for generationsto build a strong and vibrant state here in Minnesota, and we'll do so in the months andyears ahead with equal and even greater commitment. In this difficult moment for our community,we call for peace and focus cooperation among local, state, and federal leaders to achieve swiftand durable solutions that enable families, businesses, our employees, and communities acrossMinnesota to resume our work and to build bright and prosperous futures. The National BasketballPlayers Association released a statement following the Trump regime's murder of Alex Preti
06:10and Renee Good, saying that the NBA players can no longer remain silent.The NBA PA is standing up for free speech, civil liberties, and the people in Minnesota demanding justice.And it says the fraternity of NBA players, like the United States itself, is a community enriched by its global citizens.And we refuse to let the flames of division threaten the civil liberties that are meant to protect us all.And yesterday, the Minnesota Timberwolves played the Golden State Warriors in an NBA matchup in Minnesota after the game,the mood in the Timberwolf Stadium was so somber.Steph Curry was asked about what his feelings wereregarding Donald Trump's Border Patrol and ICE Gestapo
06:57inflicting so much pain and trauma on the community.Here's what Steph Curry had to sayafter the game against the Minnesota Timberwolves play this clip.There was like three straight hours.Negative 10 degree weather.It was beautiful to see that turnout.That speaks to how important people felt to have their voice heard.And those elements and whatever streets right outside our hotel,
07:25they were out.And it was amazing to watch.So your day yesterday, were you part of the conversation on the game should have gone on or not?I talked to the coach who was talking to,obviously, the Wolves organization, Tim Wool's organization.and it was very similar to, it's hard to catch up to everything that's going on here in the communitywhen you just fly, you understand what's going on, but how it affects the players, the staff,the entire franchise, the families, and allowing, just supporting them and whatever decision
08:06made sense, I would be talking to the league, so that was pretty much it.And then the coach of the Golden State Warriors, Steve Kerr, said the following.Play this clip.Honestly, what I felt was that their group suffering.The vibe in the stands, it was one of the most bizarre, sad games I've ever been a part of.You could feel in a somber atmosphere, their team, we could tell they were struggling.with everything that's been going on and, you know,what the city has been through.
08:49So it was a very sad, it was a sad night.You know, we're obviously, we got the winand we're happy about that, but very difficultto see so many people struggling and sad.And, you know, they came to the gameto try to forget about stuff, I guess,but I don't think anything went awayfor the city and for their team.
09:13I think they were suffering from the effects of everything.Now, what is Donald Trump doing?Donald Trump gave a bizarre interview to the Wall Street Journal.In an interview, the president says that immigration enforcement officers may leave at some point,but what he says is, I don't like any shooting,but I don't like it when somebody goes into a protest,and he's got a very powerful, fully loaded gun with two magazines,loaded up with bullets also.
09:45That doesn't play good either.That doesn't play good either.Someone who had a concealed carry lawful permitand was concealed carryingand did not point the gun at any of the Border Patrol Gestapo.So in other words, Donald Trump and your entire regime,you don't believe in the Second Amendment.Instead, I suppose what you care about
10:09is allowing people to carry semi-automatic weapons around schools.That's when you defend the Second Amendment, but when someone has a lawful permit for a concealed carry weapon the way Alex Preti did, then you say you deserve to die at protests.That's what you're saying.And then Donald Trump coward and he and Melania and his regime.They held a screening for the Melania movie.And so while people were reeling over the weekend based on the murder of Alex Preti following the murder.following the murder of Renee Good.This is what Melania Trump posts.
10:46Melania, the film, a historic moment.I am deeply humbled to have been surroundedby an inspiring room of friends, family,and cultural iconoclasts at the White House last night.Countdown five days away for the Melania movie.This is what Donald Trump was doing yesterday.Also, Donald Trump was ranting and ravinglike a lunatic this morning
11:08about the golden ballroom yesterday morning.A, all day. Golden ballroom this, golden ballroom, that.He was upset that the Historic Preservation Society filed a lawsuit to try to block theconstruction of the ballroom, which does not have congressional authorization.And as I've been saying here on the Midas Touch Network is patently unlawful.So he's been whining about that.What else was he posting about?He was making a raving and ranting like a lunatic about, I can't watch the NFL kickoff.
11:39Like many others, I just turned my head.Who has the right to make such a change?It's disparaging the game.And then he posts the following.Minnesota is a criminal cover-up of the massive financial fraud that has gone on, exclamation point.How utterly pathetic.Now, the American people are not buying the propaganda that the Trump regime is selling.Was the shooting of the man in Minneapolis on Saturday justified?
12:06Only 20% of Americans say it was justified, according to the latest poll.How about Trump's approval on immigration,according to Rasmussen, Donald Trump's favorite pollster?Donald Trump there has a net negative 14 approval on immigrationfrom Rasmussen.Donald Trump's right far right-wing extremist polling companyhas a net negative 14, 59% of Americans disapproveof the way Donald Trump has handled immigration.
12:40A powerful statement by former presidentstatement by former President Barack Obama, who writes,the killing of Alex Preti is a heartbreaking tragedy.It should also be a wake-up call to every American,regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.Former President Bill Clinton writes,over the course of a lifetime, we face only a few moments where the decisions we makeand the actions we take will shape our history for years to come.
13:08This is one of them.at the Target Center where the Minnesota Timberwolves play,the dunkers, the kind of the group that pumps up the crowd,they were wearing shirts that say ice out.And now finally, finally, basic morality seems to start penetrating our culturewhere people who were on the sidelines are talking outagainst this despicable Trump regime.Yesterday afternoon, Donald Trump sent out Greg Bevino,
13:37the Border Patrol Gestapo,leader who made things even worse for the Trump regime.When he was asked by reporters in Minnesota, well, now we've seen two separate peopleshot and killed by your officers within 17 days.Do you plan on taking accountability?And Vivino then attacked Renee Good and he attacks Alex Preti.Watch what happens here.Back here.
14:01Between your agency, Border Patrol, Mr. Charles, your agency, ICE, we'veseen two separate people shot and killed by your officers within 17 days. Do either of you planon taking any accountability for those actions? Two suspects, sorry, you're correct, two suspectshave them shot and suspects that assault, delay or struck or threaten a law enforcement officer's life.It goes back to the choices that we just talked about when individuals make poor choices,poor decisions come into a law enforcement situation,an active law enforcement situation conspire to come into that situation.Whether that's based on ideology, we don't know.
14:48That'll be in the investigation that we just talked about.That's what we based this.What second decisions on?And our law enforcement officers are safe.They managed, hold on, they managed to come home at the end of shift.And, you know, again, I would implore upon any individuals,whether they're anarchists, rioters,or anyone else that thinks it wise
15:11to go into a law enforcement sceneto disrupt, to delay,is to don't do that.Now contrast that to Governor Walls' press conferencewhere Governor Walls said,we now have children in Minnesotawho are hiding in their housesafraid to go out, play this clip.
15:30Places to live.Allow our children to go back to school.We have come.children in Minnesota hiding in their houses afraid to go outside.Many of us grew up reading that story of Anne Frank.Somebody's going to write that children's story about Minnesota.And there's one person who can end this now.And I'll go back to it again.
16:00Please show some decency.Pull these folks out, reset this situation, and allow usto do the job that the Attorney General, myself,were elected to do, protect the people of Minnesotaand carry out the laws of Minnesota.We'll be back with you and we get more information.So contrast Governor Walls, empathetic,actually fighting for the people of his state.
16:27Compare that to Greg Bovino,the Border Patrol Gestapo leader,when he was asked,so are you blaming the victims here?Are you blaming Renee Good?And Alex Preti, Babino said, the real victims here are the border patrol agents.The shooters, the killers, the murderers.They are the real victims here.
16:47Play this clip.With respect, it feels as though in some ways you're blaming the victim here.The victims are the border patrol agents.I'm not blaming the border patrol agents.The victim are the border patrol agents.The suspect put himself in that situation.The victims are the border patrol agents there.then you had governor wals say this isn't a political debate this is about basic morality here let's play
17:13this clip we're no longer having a political debate we're having a moral debate we all want secureborders and immigration enforcement that prioritizes criminals and i want to thank the press especiallythe local press who has done a deep dive to show that's exactly what minnesota does but what you'reseeing is not common sense lawawful or humane enforcement.That's not what this occupation is about.And then you had Bovino, Donald Trump's Border Patrol, Gestapo,attack the parents of the children who are getting kidnapped by the Border Patrol
17:51and ICE Gestapo here, play this clip.It is a choice, and there are always actions that result from our choices.When you choose to use your five-year-old child as a shield,to evade law enforcement, that is a choice that someone makes.And there are actions and consequences that result from that choice.Or when you're a politician or a community leader, you make a lot of choices.There are some very important, wide-ranging and in-depth choices.When is a politician, if you choose collusion and corruption as a choice,
18:34then there are consequences and actions that take place because of that.Just a reminder, by the way, this is what the MAGA base was always telling us were the way they protested,where they would bring their semi-automatics, their AR-15s, you know, and other weapons of war to protest.Remember when they stood outside the state capital building in Michigan with their semi-automatic weapons.And they said, that's what we do.that's fine, that's how you roll.But then now they're saying, or now the Trump regime is saying, having a lawful concealed carrypermit and having a gun in a concealed carry posture now constitutes grounds to be killed and to be
19:20murdered by Donald Trump's ICE Gestapo.Let me just share with you some of the statements coming in from Alex Prettie's friends.A friend of Alex Prettie says, rest in peace, Alex Preti, you are courageous, kind soul,unjustly murdered, you will be deeply missed.Here's another statement.Alex and I were friends,freshman year of college,and lived in the same dorm.
19:40We drifted apart because life happens,but I had always sort of wondered how he ended up.As it turns out, he was a helper up until the very end.He was the best of us.It's shattering.Thinking of his family and those closest to him,or this post, I am incredibly sadthat one of the sweetest people,
19:56this is a former coworker,I knew was killed by ICE agents.He worked in a neighboring lab years ago,I have found memories of him and they will live on.F. Ice is what this person say.Here's Maria Bardooma, absolutely livid.And when you've lost Maria Barta Roma from state regime media,here she is speaking with James Comer.
20:18Let's play this clip right here.Another individual is dead at the hands of Border Patrol.Let's be clear.We do not know if there was any pushback from this individual who was armed,We do not have evidence that he was waving a gun doing anything to threaten border patrol.He had his phone and he was shooting, he was viewing and recording the incident.That's what he was doing, recording the incident.What is your reaction and you are an elected official?
20:52What can you do about it?Well, look, I don't think there's any question.A majority of Americans want President Trump and ICE to go in and apprehend the criminal illegal.That's what President Trump campaigned on, and he's doing exactly what he said.I look at what happened in Minneapolis versus what happened in Washington, D.C.When President Trump's at the National Guard into Washington, D.C., the mayor, Mayor Muriel Bowser,supported that.She worked her local law and first work with the president, and in a short period of time,
21:23they have really been successful in reducing the amount of crime in Washington, D.C.That was a big success.Fast forward to where we are in Minneapolis.We have a governor, an attorney general, and a mayor of Minneapolis who are getting peoplejacked up, trying to get them, you know, convinced that this is, you know, some type of illegalraid that all their lives are threatening.They've got all these white liberals coming in, trying to run over ice, trying to, you know,spray them and do everything to disrupt.
21:53And now I'll share with you, Democratic Congress member Kasar from Texas.Here's what he had to say about what should be.the non-negotiables now in the House and Senate when it comes to blocking any funding for theDepartment of Homeland Security. Let's play it. What I think we've all seen is that folks watchingat homes, voices have been heard. Until just recently, it seemed like that ICE funding billwas going to make it through the Senate. But thankfully, Senate Democrats are saying, no,we cannot leave ICE and Trump mass deportation machine in place. And so now,Now, we need to ask our senators before they send the bill back to the House, in my view,
22:34for at least five non-negotiables.First, pull ICE and CBP out of Minneapolis.No more of this in Minneapolis or other American cities.Two, the masks need to come off.Three, no more arresting and deporting U.S. citizens.Or a full and thorough investigation of the killing of Ms. Good and Mr. Preddy.And number five, we've got to end these indiscriminate arrest quotas and warrantless.arrest and searches. This is the kind of things that all Americans should be able to agree on and all
23:05senators should insist on in this bill. And here he talks about impeaching Christyneum, which is somethingthat absolutely needs to happen. No, it's very clear that we need to fire Christyneum, that we needto impeach Christyneum, because of course we all know the things that she has done. She's unleashedthese policies that have resulted in innocent Americans being killed.in Minneapolis, and then she's gone and smeared those Americans and their families.That should be enough to impeach her.But what folks haven't talked enough about is what she's not doing.She is not helping us with disaster preparedness.
23:45She delayed search and rescue by 72 hours for the Texas floods this last summer.She has been firing people at FEMA in mass that should be helping us with things like this winter stormthat are knocking out power for lots of people in Texasthat are all across the country.So we should fire Christy Noembecause she's not focused on keeping us safe.Finally, let me leave you with this.The Midas Touch Network exclusively showed our audience this yesterday.
24:14Mayor Momdani personally checking on the outer boroughsduring the horrible snowstorms in the East Coast.Here he is stopping in bed stye to help the NYCHA residentswhose car got stuck right there.You see over there.And that's just what leadership is.We just want normal empathetic leadershipof people actually helping.
