  Speaker 2: In regards to the shooting that happened at the White

  Speaker 2: House correspondence dinner.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: We know the story.

• 1:23
  Speaker 2: President Donald J.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: Trump.
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: Now, I made some comments about that situation. My comments
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: were simple, there is no place for political violence in
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: our society none. I don't condone it, but I think
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: we do ourselves at disservice when we don't talk about
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: how people can become radicalized. And the reality is the
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: Trump administration has caused so much pain the people's everyday
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: lives that some folks are fed up and willing to.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: Risk it all.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: Well, Glenn Beck decided to talk about those statements.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: In his caption on ig of the.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: Video, he put Charlemagne justifies, and he put justifies in
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: all caps.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: Charlemagne justifies the Trump.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Assassination attempt with a question mark, an exclamation mark. Glenn,
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: your social media people knew what they were doing, Okay,
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: they were trying to paint the picture that I was
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: justifying the Trump assassination. That's why they put justifying in taps.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: But you put a question market end to protect yourselves. Okay,
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: I get it. But Glenn asked the question in regards
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: to what I said. Let's listen.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: You know who Charlemagne, the god is.
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: I want you to listen to what he said about
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: the Trump assassination attempt this week.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: Listen to this.
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: The Trump administration has caused so much pain to people's
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: everyday lives that some folks are fed up and willing
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: to risk it all simple as that. And if you're
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: going to talk about anybody toning down violent political rhetoric,
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: start with the president.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: I'm not on j. Trump.
• 2:42
  Speaker 4: What the hell pain are people going I mean, I
• 2:45
  Speaker 4: understand economic pain that started under Biden? What pain are
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: people going through right now that you can go Yeah,
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: I can see why they want to kill him. That's
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: an honest question. What pain is being applied by this
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: administration that makes you say I want to kill him?
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: That's some grade a gas lighting right there. Okay, people
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: like Glenn Beck have been too rich, too privileged, and
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: to in a bubble for so long that they have
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: zero clue about the pain so many in this country
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: are currently facing. And if you listen to what Glenn
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: Beck said.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: He gets it, but he just shrugged it off.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: He literally says, I understand the economic pain. Let's listen
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: to that part. What the what the hell pain are
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: people going? I mean, I understand economic pain. Let's started
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: under Biden? What pain are people going through? Right now?
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: That you can go? Yeah, I can see why they
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: want to kill him.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: If you understand the economic pains, then why are you
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: asking the question what pain?
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: Okay?
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: Could people possibly people? When you why are you asking
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: the question?
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: What pain? Okay?
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: Could people possibly be going through something in this country?
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: Yes, once again, there.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: Is no justification political political violence, but we do ourselves
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: a grave disservice if we don't at least discuss the
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: many reasons a person can be radicalized. Once again, there
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: is no justification for political violence, but we do ourselves
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: a grave disservice if we don't at least discuss the
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: many reasons a person can be radicalized. You said, what
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: pain can people possibly be going through? Well, let me
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: speak of let me speak from some of my people. Okay,
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: my good friend Gina Lisa Montroso. She is the founder
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: of Medicaid Advisory Group. She left the common and said,
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: maybe the pain isn't loud, Maybe it's quiet and constant.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: It's the moment someone loses subsidized healthcare and suddenly have
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: to choose between medication or rent. It's living with a
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: chronic illness and realizing the coverage that kept you stable
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: is gone, and now every doctor visit feels like a
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: financial risk. It's parents who work every single day, earning
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: seven twenty five an hour in places like Texas and Mississippi,
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: but still coming home wondering how to scratch groceries for
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: the week. It's children feeling hunger, not because their parents
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: don't try, but because they no longer qualify for snap
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: while prices keep rising. It's the silent math happening at
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: kitchen tables. What can we cut next? What happens if
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: someone gets sick? That is the pain people are carrying
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: right now. Another person in my comment said they're literally
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: killing protesters in the street, terrorizing immigrant communities. People can't
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: afford food, gas, everyone working two jobs. There is no
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: accountability for anyone in the Epstein files are for killing
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: school children in that illegal war. There is so much
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: unnecessary pain in a world with enough resources for everyone
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: to live a happy, healthy life if we just shared
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: in quote, another person in my comments, her name is
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: Mistress Fatima, says women have lost their rights to their bodies,
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: Black folks have lost political power, and the price of
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: everything at skyrocketed, and he.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: Wants to know what pain people are in.
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: H The Epsteine Files is a big part, okay, because
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: if you read Coote Allen's manifesto, he says, and I
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: am no longer willing to permit a pedophile, rapist, and
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: trader to quote my hands with his crimes.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: Sadly, if people.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: Don't feel like the justice system is doing anything to
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: protect kids, they're gonna take matters into their own hands.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: I don't agree with vigilante justice.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: I don't think political violence is the answer, but we
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: have to have honest conversations about how these people are
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: being radicalized. Glenn Beck knows this, okay, but he's one
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: of those people who has made a career off gas
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: lighting folk and playing dumb. Okay, it's hard to know
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: what people like Glenn Beck really believe and what's just
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: performative because you acknowledge that you understand the economic pain.
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: And if you understand the economic pain, then you know
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: economic strife, a high unemployment, poverty, income, inequality, all of
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: that can lead to violence. It's not right, but it's reality.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: Economic hardships act as a stressor, raising hostility and contributing
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: the higher rates of robbery, property crime, intimate partner violence,
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: and in some cases, yes, political conflicts.
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: Not saying it's right, but it's reality. Do you realize that.
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: According to CBS dues, between fifty seven percent and seventy
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: eight percent of American adults live paycheck to paycheck, meaning
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: they have little to no savings left after covering basic expenses.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: Okay, the rising costs of living, inflation, and those are
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: all primary factors.
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: With over forty percent of consumers struggling to say it
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: for retirement. Glynn, Beck, I don't know how you can
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: be so detached from every day Americans that you don't
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: understand that type of pain. Okay, I don't understand how
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: you don't understand the pain that Trump administration has caused.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: You have to know in your heart that this administration in.
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: Particular has acted illegally and unconstitutionally in ways that have
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: weakened our democratic institutions, recked economy, rolled back protections for
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: public health, the environment, not to mention healthcare and social
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: security benefits.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: Okay, all of that is at risk for millions of Americans.
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: If you don't think for one second this could lead
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: to someone risking it all, then you're bugging. Yes, we
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: should talk about violent political rhetoric that leads to political violence,
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: and we should discourage that and denouncing, Okay, especially when
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: it's coming from the President of the United States of America.
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: But we should also talk about violent political policies that
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: are hurting the pockets of every day working class Americans
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: and discourage and denounce that too.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: Please give GILLN. Beck the biggest you. That's all I'm saying.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: And if you don't think people in pain, open up
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: the phone lines right now. Let's do it. One hundred
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: five eighty five, one oh five to one. Okay, let's
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: talk about something that's right.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: As the policy that the Trump administration has implemented. What
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: type of pain has it caused you?
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: Let's discuss since let's talk about it.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: One hundred and five five one one o five one, Yes, okay,
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: and listen once again. I don't condone political violence. There
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: is no place for political violence in our society. I
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: don't condone it on any level. But I think we
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: do ourselves a disservice when we don't talk about how
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: people can become radicalized in these situation. Economic strife will
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: cause you to do some strange things.
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: Eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. We're
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: talking about pain. What pain have you been dealing with recently?
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: And he knows it.
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: He literally said, I understand the economic pain because you
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: can't destrug that off because you're rich. I was about
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: to say he might know it, but like it's a
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: different feeling when you got when you when you're feeling.
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: You're feeling it, you're going home and you.
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: Know what I mean.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: Like, if people are really trying to figure some things out, that's.
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: You got an eviction notice right now, and your time job,
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: it's exactly where you're gonna go. You can't afford daycare.
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: You might have to take your kids to school. Like
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: there's things that.
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: You feel pains and you're scared to go to the
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: doctor because you know you're gonna get a huge villain.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: You can't afford it.
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: Man, Listen the TSA agents you know who had to
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: be down at the food bank because, like I said,
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: people are living check to check in this country and
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: missing one paycheck. Literally, you got to decide between rent,
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: food and take care, car notes and health insurance. Like
