Latest / V / America First is Under Attack (Ep.83)
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Good morning and welcome to Bongina Report Early Edition. The
- 0:04Speaker 1: left-wing British government is exposed as an enemy of America.
- 0:09Speaker 1: The view flips out over Trump's very based new borders are.
- 0:14Speaker 1: Trump appoints a climate cultist to head the EPA. Neocon
- 0:19Speaker 1: Marco Rubio is set to be appointed as Secretary of State.
- 0:23Speaker 1: AOC asked her constituents why they voted for her and Trump.
- 0:29Speaker 1: Joy Reid defends identity politics and why I'm skeptical of
- 0:32Speaker 1: Trump's plan to tackle woke universities. All this on Bongina Report,
- 0:38Speaker 1: early edition. If you're a foreign U.S.
- 0:53Speaker 2: Ally.
- 0:54Speaker 1: But you're undermining America's First Amendment and you're meddling in
- 0:58Speaker 1: our elections. You actually are not, in fact, America's ally.
- 1:04Speaker 1: You are our enemy. And Britain, or at least the
- 1:07Speaker 1: current party, the left-wing party in charge of Britain, is
- 1:11Speaker 1: an enemy of the American people. Per a report from
- 1:14Speaker 1: the Foundation for Freedom Online run by Mike Benz, the
- 1:18Speaker 1: Center for Countering Digital Hate says, the CCDH, a UK
- 1:23Speaker 1: nonprofit with deep ties to British politics, has been exposed
- 1:27Speaker 1: for its agenda to, quote, kill Musk's Twitter. The Center
- 1:31Speaker 1: for Countering Digital Hate, founded by Morgan McSweeney, chief advisor
- 1:36Speaker 1: to left-wing UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, is not an
- 1:39Speaker 1: impartial organization as it bills itself to be. Instead, it
- 1:45Speaker 1: is a tool of British statecraft aimed at attacking Starmer's
- 1:48Speaker 1: political enemies, particularly the left-wing populist-supporting former labor leader Jeremy Corbyn.
- 1:55Speaker 1: And now the CCDH's influence has crept across the Atlantic,
- 2:00Speaker 1: where it's meddling in U.S. politics by reportedly supporting Kamala
- 2:03Speaker 1: Harris during the campaign in key battleground states. But the
- 2:07Speaker 1: CCDH's ambitions go beyond just this mere partnership. CCDH launched
- 2:13Speaker 1: an infamous disinformation dozen hit list, which called for banning
- 2:19Speaker 1: prominent COVID skeptics during, including Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on
- 2:23Speaker 1: social media. And this was a tactic that has quickly
- 2:26Speaker 1: gained the support of the Biden White House, of the
- 2:29Speaker 1: permanent state at large. And CCDH's tentacles now reach into
- 2:35Speaker 1: the American government with figures like Adam Schiff, Amy Klobuchar,
- 2:39Speaker 1: and even former CIA, NSA, and Pentagon officials giving this
- 2:43Speaker 1: British organization money a disturbing level of influence here in
- 2:48Speaker 1: the United States. So basically, a political arm of the
- 2:52Speaker 1: British left-wing government is dictating, or was at least dictating,
- 2:57Speaker 1: what Americans can and cannot say online and influencing our elections.
- 3:03Speaker 1: It's funny how you never hear about the UK being
- 3:06Speaker 1: an example of foreign malign influence because the permanent state
- 3:11Speaker 1: is giving the Brits that influence. They want them. to
- 3:15Speaker 1: be annihilating freedom here in the United States. Per the
- 3:19Speaker 1: Foundation for Freedom Online, CCDH's reach is sinisterly multifaceted, stretching
- 3:25Speaker 1: from the State Department to Silicon Valley. And behind the scenes,
- 3:30Speaker 1: CCDH maintains influential allies, such as Damian Collins and ex-M16
- 3:37Speaker 1: agent Christopher Steele, the infamous Steele dossier.
- 3:42Speaker 3: Man.
- 3:43Speaker 1: And this powerful network enables CCDH to infiltrate both US
- 3:47Speaker 1: and UK political spheres, pushing an agenda of censorship, cloaked,
- 3:52Speaker 1: of course, in this language of safety and anti-hate. You
- 3:56Speaker 1: guys know what it's about. And is this probably going
- 3:58Speaker 1: to continue under a Trump admin? No, it is not.
- 4:00Speaker 1: Trump fights, is going to fight this curtailment of free speech,
- 4:04Speaker 1: tooth and nail. But it's interesting to point out, because
- 4:08Speaker 1: we're always hearing about this idea of formalized influence, this
- 4:11Speaker 1: idea that other governments are coming in and impacting our
- 4:14Speaker 1: elections or trying to undermine America. And we never see
- 4:20Speaker 1: Britain on that list. And I really don't care what
- 4:23Speaker 1: America's history is with Britain. This is not how allies behave.
- 4:28Speaker 1: America and the British have a history that predates World
- 4:32Speaker 1: War II. We fought a revolution to free ourselves from
- 4:34Speaker 1: their tyranny. Drop a comment, yes or no, but I'm
- 4:36Speaker 1: pretty sure everyone at CCDH and the left-wing British government
- 4:39Speaker 1: needs to be tarred and feathered for trying to annihilate
- 4:42Speaker 1: American freedoms. At the very least, I think the British
- 4:45Speaker 1: government is going to have a rocky relationship with the
- 4:48Speaker 1: incoming Trump admin. And so does the leader of the
- 4:51Speaker 1: Conservative Party in the UK. Take a listen.
- 4:54Speaker 4: As leader of His Majesty's opposition, I will be taking
- 4:57Speaker 4: a different approach to the last opposition by being a
- 5:00Speaker 4: constructive opposition. And so I would like to start by
- 5:03Speaker 4: congratulating President-elect Trump on his impressive victory this morning. The
- 5:08Speaker 4: Prime Minister and the Foreign Secretary met him in September.
- 5:11Speaker 4: Did the Foreign Secretary take that opportunity to apologise for
- 5:14Speaker 4: making derogatory and scatological references, including, and I quote, Trump
- 5:19Speaker 4: is not only a woman-hating, neo-Nazi-sympathising sociopath, he is also
- 5:24Speaker 4: a profound threat to the international order. And if he
- 5:26Speaker 4: did not apologise, will the Prime Minister do so now
- 5:29Speaker 4: on his behalf?
- 5:30Speaker 5: The Foreign Secretary and I did meet President-elect Trump just
- 5:33Speaker 5: a few weeks ago for dinner for about a couple
- 5:35Speaker 5: of hours, and we discussed a number of issues of
- 5:38Speaker 5: global significance. It was a very constructive exercise.
- 5:45Speaker 2: Mr.
- 5:45Speaker 4: Speaker, the Prime Minister did not distance himself from the
- 5:48Speaker 4: remarks made by the Foreign Secretary, and I'm very sure
- 5:51Speaker 4: that President Trump will soon be calling to thank him
- 5:55Speaker 4: for sending all of those North London Labour activists to
- 5:58Speaker 4: campaign for his opponent.
- 6:01Speaker 1: That was an awesome soundbite. I hope that she's in
- 6:04Speaker 1: charge of the UK government soon, but this is just
- 6:06Speaker 1: this is just not going to be a good partnership
- 6:08Speaker 1: with the Trump admin. I hope Trump gives them what
- 6:10Speaker 1: they deserved. Also, Michael just pointed out that I said M16,
- 6:13Speaker 1: not MI6. Yes, I'm so sorry, you guys. It's the morning.
- 6:16Speaker 1: I'm tired. I'm reading off of my notes and my bad.
- 6:20Speaker 1: But yes, as far as I'm concerned, Keir Starmer and
- 6:23Speaker 1: his government are as much of America's ally as Xi Jinping. Seriously,
- 6:29Speaker 1: this is a ridiculous, ridiculous thing. We're going to take
- 6:32Speaker 1: a quick break, but when we come back, we are
- 6:34Speaker 1: going to Covering a story from across the pond here
- 6:37Speaker 1: in America, The View is, of course, losing their minds.
- 6:42Speaker 1: Shout out to our sponsors. They keep this show free. Now,
- 6:45Speaker 1: across the pond, The View hosts are absolutely losing their
- 6:48Speaker 1: minds over Donald Trump's new border czar selection, Tom Homan.
- 6:54Speaker 1: Take a listen.
- 6:55Speaker 6: You realize, I mean, it's chilling what he just said.
- 6:57Speaker 6: You realize that when he says, yes, families can be
- 7:00Speaker 6: deported together, what he is saying is, is that U.S.
- 7:04Speaker 6: citizens can be deported. What he is saying is if
- 7:08Speaker 6: the parent is undocumented and they have U.S. citizen children
- 7:12Speaker 6: or U.S. citizen spouse, and you don't want to separate them,
- 7:16Speaker 6: then let's deport the U.S. citizens.
- 7:19Speaker 1: Yeah, so U.S. citizens cannot be deported. She is just
- 7:22Speaker 1: lying in that soundbite. And if the ladies of The
- 7:25Speaker 1: View are mad, that's how you know this is going
- 7:29Speaker 1: to be good. Here is an incredible Tom Holman exchange
- 7:32Speaker 1: with AOC. And I want you to watch how he
- 7:35Speaker 1: just leaves her completely speechless at the end. She has
- 7:40Speaker 1: to end her interrogation of him.
- 7:42Speaker 2: The recommendation of the many that you recommended, you recommended
- 7:46Speaker 2: family separation.
- 7:47Speaker 7: I recommended zero tolerance.
- 7:49Speaker 2: Which includes family separation.
- 7:51Speaker 7: The same as is with every U.S. citizen parent gets
- 7:53Speaker 7: arrested when they're with a child.
- 7:59Speaker 2: Zero tolerance was interpreted as the policy that separated children
- 8:03Speaker 2: from their parents.
- 8:03Speaker 7: If I get arrested for DUI and I have a
- 8:05Speaker 7: young child in a car, I'm going to be separated.
- 8:07Speaker 7: When I was a police officer in New York and
- 8:09Speaker 7: I arrested a father for domestic violence, I separated that
- 8:12Speaker 7: father from his family.
- 8:13Speaker 3: Mr.
- 8:13Speaker 2: Holman, with all due respect, legal asylees are not charged
- 8:18Speaker 2: with any crimes.
- 8:20Speaker 7: When you enter the country illegally, it's violation 8 United
- 8:23Speaker 7: States Code 1325.
- 8:24Speaker 2: Seeking asylum is legal.
- 8:27Speaker 7: If you want to seek asylum and go through the
- 8:28Speaker 7: port of entry, do it the legal way. The Attorney
- 8:31Speaker 7: General of the United States has made that clear.
- 8:33Speaker 6: Okay.
- 8:35Speaker 1: She can't even respond. I mean, he's so great. He's competent.
- 8:40Speaker 1: He's smooth. He's quick. He knows the law. And he's
- 8:43Speaker 1: not going to let them get away with basically facilitating
- 8:47Speaker 1: an entire mass illegal immigration process crisis in our country
- 8:52Speaker 1: under the guise of it being humanitarian she couldn't even
- 8:56Speaker 1: respond to him he's right if you commit a crime
- 8:58Speaker 1: you get you get in trouble you get separated from
- 9:01Speaker 1: your family if you commit the crime of coming to
- 9:04Speaker 1: this country illegally you unfortunately risk being separated from your
- 9:08Speaker 1: family there are consequences to doing illegal things like coming
- 9:12Speaker 1: into this country illegally and again i refuse to hear
- 9:15Speaker 1: cries and complaints about deportations when democrats are facilitating a
- 9:20Speaker 1: human trafficking crisis at the border, a child sex trafficking
- 9:24Speaker 1: crisis at the border. Tom Holman and potential pick Stephen Miller,
- 9:31Speaker 1: I believe, or deputy, you should look that up. I
- 9:33Speaker 1: believe it's deputy chief of staff. Those are the two
- 9:37Speaker 1: appointments that have me excited about this new admin. And unfortunately,
- 9:42Speaker 1: they are the only appointments that I am excited. Deputy
- 9:46Speaker 1: chief of staff, deputy chief of staff for policy. So
- 9:49Speaker 1: he's a great guy. I'm Stephen Miller, excited about that.
- 9:51Speaker 1: I hope that happens. Tom Homan was a great pick. Unfortunately,
- 9:55Speaker 1: they're the only people that so far I am excited about.
- 10:00Speaker 1: It's incredibly essential that we hold this Trump transition team accountable,
- 10:04Speaker 1: that we hold Donald Trump accountable. Trump has picked Lee
- 10:07Speaker 1: Zeldin to head the Environmental Protection Agency, the EPA. And Zeldin,
- 10:14Speaker 1: very notably, does not does not oppose the climate cult.
- 10:19Speaker 1: And don't let anyone tell you that he does. Take
- 10:22Speaker 1: a listen. We solved the whole Middle East thing in
- 10:25Speaker 1: two episodes.
- 10:28Speaker 8: The first congressional district of New York is unique in
- 10:30Speaker 8: that it's almost completely surrounded by water. We were greatly
- 10:33Speaker 8: impacted by Superstorm Sandy. So the threat is very real
- 10:36Speaker 8: for this congressional district.
- 10:38Speaker 9: I mean, do you think it would be helpful for
- 10:39Speaker 9: us to emphasize, you know, conservative market-driven solutions?
- 10:44Speaker 1: Would that help you?
- 10:46Speaker 8: Oh, absolutely. I think that there is more of an
- 10:48Speaker 8: awareness and a willingness to recognize that climate change is
- 10:53Speaker 8: real and that Congress is more and more open-minded towards
- 10:57Speaker 8: identifying those solutions.
- 11:00Speaker 1: Zeldin is a part of the climate cult. In Congress,
- 11:03Speaker 1: he was part of the conservative climate caucus. And a
- 11:06Speaker 1: prerequisite to joining that caucus was is that you subscribe
- 11:10Speaker 1: to the official narrative around climate change. And the caucus
- 11:14Speaker 1: also participates annually in the UN climate change conferences. I
- 11:17Speaker 1: don't know, drop a comment if you guys agree, but
- 11:19Speaker 1: I think that really we should not have any members
- 11:23Speaker 1: of Congress participating in these UN conferences that are aimed
- 11:27Speaker 1: at really annihilating freedom in the entire West, of economically
- 11:32Speaker 1: destroying the West by destroying the middle class and powering
- 11:36Speaker 1: corporations only. So that was a really big red flag
- 11:40Speaker 1: for me. According to investigative journalist Whitney Webb, the caucus
- 11:44Speaker 1: also supports carbon pricing, which is putting a price on carbon,
- 11:48Speaker 1: and wants big oil and big gas to lead on
- 11:52Speaker 1: curbing emissions. And a lot of people don't realize this,
- 11:55Speaker 1: but big oil and big gas companies are actually major
- 11:58Speaker 1: advocates for a carbon tax and carbon emissions trading. These
- 12:03Speaker 1: are government-imposed financial burdens that aim to restrict energy use
- 12:08Speaker 1: and control behavior in the name of addressing so-called climate change.
- 12:12Speaker 1: And carbon pricing is, again, part of this globalist push
- 12:16Speaker 1: to disempower the masses. It's costly, it's ineffective, and it's
- 12:20Speaker 1: designed to limit economic freedom, burden consumers, and give governments
- 12:24Speaker 1: more control over industries without even significantly impacting global temperatures,
- 12:29Speaker 1: if they impact them at all. This is not about
- 12:31Speaker 1: the climate. It's a way to annihilate small businesses who
- 12:35Speaker 1: don't have the lawyers and the money to maneuver carbon markets.
- 12:39Speaker 1: Here's Tucker Carlson explaining.
- 12:41Speaker 9: Let's say you believed every, quote, piece of science or
- 12:44Speaker 9: scientific claim about global climate change. You would not reach
- 12:48Speaker 9: the same policy conclusions. You'd be like, well, the first
- 12:50Speaker 9: thing we need to do is ban private air travel
- 12:52Speaker 9: because obviously that doesn't make any sense. And then the
- 12:54Speaker 9: second thing we need to do is, you know, whatever.
- 12:56Speaker 9: You'd look at it rationally from a scientific, if you
- 12:58Speaker 9: bought the premise, which I don't, but if you did,
- 13:01Speaker 9: you would. No, you go through every climate, quote, climate demand.
- 13:07Speaker 9: Not one of them disempowers large organizations, whether it's NGOs
- 13:12Speaker 9: or the government of the United States. Not one of them.
- 13:14Speaker 9: They all make the government more powerful and they all
- 13:16Speaker 9: make you less powerful. So that's when you know it's
- 13:19Speaker 9: not really about the temperature of the Earth's atmosphere. It's
- 13:23Speaker 9: about making them more powerful and disempowering you.
- 13:26Speaker 1: And Lee Zeldin supports that. From what I know about Mr.
- 13:33Speaker 1: Carbon Credit Lee Zeldin, this is a bad, bad pick.
- 13:38Speaker 1: And then we found out that Trump is likely to
- 13:39Speaker 1: pick Marco Rubio as his Secretary of State. Now, Marco
- 13:43Speaker 1: Rubio has supported amnesty for illegals. He is a NATO
- 13:47Speaker 1: lover who supported military intervention in Syria and regime change
- 13:51Speaker 1: in Iran. Here's Marco on Iran.
- 13:54Speaker 7: If you cross this threshold, you will face military action
- 13:56Speaker 7: on the part of the United States.
- 13:58Speaker 9: We don't want that to happen.
- 13:59Speaker 1: But the risk of a nuclear Iran is so great.
- 14:02Speaker 10: That that option must be on the table.
- 14:03Speaker 1: So if it came to that, that would be an
- 14:07Speaker 1: option that you would actually... Absolutely. Peachy Keenan run on ex-Rubio?
- 14:14Speaker 1: Was Hillary available? Which is very funny, very Peachy Keenan.
- 14:18Speaker 1: But it's true. Here's Tulsi Gabbard denouncing Marco Rubio just
- 14:23Speaker 1: a few months ago as part of the neocon warmongering establishment.
- 14:28Speaker 1: And that's a quote.
- 14:29Speaker 11: I think it would be a huge mistake for President
- 14:32Speaker 11: Trump to choose him because he represents the neocon warmongering
- 14:37Speaker 11: establishment of Washington, D.C., which stands diametrically opposed to the
- 14:44Speaker 11: very policies that President Trump has always stood for, going
- 14:48Speaker 11: all the way back to when he ran for president
- 14:49Speaker 11: in 2016, through that first term in office, and the
- 14:53Speaker 11: things that he's talking about wanting to do now. And
- 14:55Speaker 11: it would send the wrong message to a lot of
- 14:58Speaker 11: folks who are very concerned about the fact that we
- 15:02Speaker 11: are on the brink of war with Russia and China
- 15:05Speaker 11: and Iran and North Korea. If Marco Rubio is his
- 15:08Speaker 11: vice president, then that is what we will face. And
- 15:12Speaker 11: it will cause a lot of people to question what
- 15:15Speaker 11: kind of foreign policy will actually be executed. Will it
- 15:17Speaker 11: be the one that Trump wants and stands for? Or
- 15:20Speaker 11: will it be one that will continue the deep state
- 15:23Speaker 11: neocon warmongers who've gotten us into the mess that we
- 15:26Speaker 11: are in now?
- 15:27Speaker 1: Now, obviously, if she was talking about Trump considering Marco
- 15:30Speaker 1: Rubio for vice president. I don't know, arguably secretary of
- 15:34Speaker 1: state is more dangerous having him in that position in
- 15:38Speaker 1: charge of foreign policy at such a high level. And
- 15:41Speaker 1: this really feels like a slap in the face to voters.
- 15:44Speaker 1: The bad personnel really appears to be back. Rubio's rhetoric
- 15:49Speaker 1: about Iran is hawkish and it's dangerous. We need a
- 15:54Speaker 1: restrained foreign policy where America focuses on domestic issues rather
- 16:00Speaker 1: than getting entangled in foreign conflicts that don't directly benefit
- 16:03Speaker 1: national security here at home. As Thomas Jefferson said, peace, commerce,
- 16:08Speaker 1: and honest friendship with all, entangling alliances with none. Trump
- 16:14Speaker 1: is installing very hot-headed individuals into his admin. Florida Congressman
- 16:19Speaker 1: Michael Walsh has reportedly been rumored to be Trump's new
- 16:26Speaker 1: national security advisor. He's set to pick Michael Walsh. Now, first,
- 16:31Speaker 1: Walsh is another neocon who supports regime change in Iran,
- 16:34Speaker 1: not to mention that we need Walsh in the House.
- 16:38Speaker 1: We won't have a replacement for him in the critical
- 16:42Speaker 1: first few days, first potentially hundred days of Trump being
- 16:46Speaker 1: in office. It'll trigger a special election. And from the
- 16:51Speaker 1: point that he's actually confirmed, then we'll get the special election.
- 16:54Speaker 1: So we essentially lose his vote in a really critical
- 16:59Speaker 1: time period of the Trump admin. When we have the House,
- 17:03Speaker 1: we have the Senate, we have the executive, and we're
- 17:05Speaker 1: going to push as much legislation as we can as
- 17:08Speaker 1: quickly as possible. And we don't have his vote. And
- 17:12Speaker 1: we're also going to lose Elise Stefanik. We're going to
- 17:14Speaker 1: have to have a special election for Elise Stefanik, who
- 17:16Speaker 1: was nominated to ambassador of the UN. And Elise Stefanik
- 17:20Speaker 1: is another war hawk. Both she and Waltz supported initial
- 17:25Speaker 1: Ukraine spending packages, and regime change in the Middle East.
- 17:28Speaker 1: After January 6th, Elise Stefanik said that she was scared
- 17:31Speaker 1: and hiding in her office and called for Jay Sixers
- 17:34Speaker 1: to be prosecuted, and this is a quote, to the
- 17:37Speaker 1: full extent of the law. And here's another quote. She
- 17:40Speaker 1: described January Sixers as violent criminals. Stefanik and Waltz both
- 17:46Speaker 1: voted to reauthorize warrantless surveillance on American citizens via FISA
- 17:52Speaker 1: Section 702. Let me just restate that. Elise Stefanik and
- 17:56Speaker 1: Michael Waltz both voted to reauthorize a part of a
- 18:01Speaker 1: law that brazenly violates the Constitution. So not only are
- 18:08Speaker 1: we sacrificing our razor-thin margin in the House, but we're
- 18:10Speaker 1: installing neocons in the Cabinet. If this is winning with Trump,
- 18:14Speaker 1: I think I prefer losing. And it's a betrayal to
- 18:18Speaker 1: the voters. We went with Trump because he promised to
- 18:21Speaker 1: be America first. Dave Smith tweeted on November 8th. Right now,
- 18:26Speaker 1: we need a maximum pressure to keep all neocons and
- 18:29Speaker 1: war hawks out of the Trump administration. They have had
- 18:32Speaker 1: their time at the table and brought nothing but disaster
- 18:34Speaker 1: to the world and this country. And then Don Jr. responded,
- 18:37Speaker 1: agreed 100%. I'm on it. Are you on it, Don?
- 18:42Speaker 1: This is on it? Remember what Trump used to sound like.
- 18:49Speaker 1: Let's do a little reminder. of OG Donald Trump.
- 18:54Speaker 10: When Donald Trump was running in 2016, you know, he
- 18:57Speaker 10: stood at the Republican primary debate stage in South Carolina
- 19:02Speaker 10: and looked at Jeb Bush in the eyes and said,
- 19:05Speaker 10: your brother lied us into war.
- 19:07Speaker 12: Obviously, the war in Iraq was a big, fat mistake.
- 19:11Speaker 12: We spent $ 2 trillion, thousands of lives.
- 19:14Speaker 10: We don't even have it.
- 19:15Speaker 12: We should have never been in Iraq. We have destabilized
- 19:18Speaker 12: the Middle East.
- 19:18Speaker 10: They lied.
- 19:19Speaker 12: They said there were weapons of mass destruction. There were none.
- 19:23Speaker 9: And they knew there were none.
- 19:24Speaker 10: And the next day at the primary, Donald Trump took
- 19:27Speaker 10: 60% and all the other Republicans, all 12 of them
- 19:29Speaker 10: split the other 40%.
- 19:32Speaker 1: I'm seeing a lot of comments, people disagreeing, saying, let's
- 19:35Speaker 1: see how they do. Let's give them a chance. I
- 19:39Speaker 1: think when people tell you who they are, you should
- 19:41Speaker 1: believe them. I think we know how a lot of
- 19:45Speaker 1: these people are going to behave because they've already behaved badly.
- 19:50Speaker 1: They've already told us where their alliances are and it's
- 19:53Speaker 1: not America first. And I'm not going to sit here
- 19:55Speaker 1: and pretend like this is looking good. And I'm not
- 19:57Speaker 1: saying that there's no hope for this Trump admin and
- 20:00Speaker 1: I'd rather Kamala Harris win. That's a ridiculous statement. No,
- 20:03Speaker 1: I'm not saying that. What I'm saying is that we, us,
- 20:08Speaker 1: in this chat, part of Bongino Army, we need to
- 20:11Speaker 1: put the pressure on the Trump admin and make our
- 20:14Speaker 1: voices heard. It worked with Mike Pompeo. It worked with
- 20:17Speaker 1: Nikki Haley. We have to be proactive and let the
- 20:22Speaker 1: Trump admin know where we stand. in this critical time period.
- 20:25Speaker 1: It's not about turning on Trump. It's not about throwing
- 20:27Speaker 1: in the towel. I'm telling you this because I don't
- 20:31Speaker 1: want to throw on the towel because I want this
- 20:33Speaker 1: to be a successful administration that delivers to the voters.
- 20:41Speaker 1: We can't have the president who ran on ending the
- 20:44Speaker 1: neocons installing neocons in his cabinet. I even think about
- 20:48Speaker 1: all the Muslim voters in Dearborn, Michigan, who voted for
- 20:51Speaker 1: Trump on the promise that he'd bring peace to the
- 20:53Speaker 1: Middle East. were they just lied to? Tulsi's right when
- 20:58Speaker 1: she says that Trump has an opportunity right now to
- 21:01Speaker 1: be pro-peace after years of warmongering, after years of really
- 21:06Speaker 1: bad people controlling the Republican Party. Is he picking the
- 21:09Speaker 1: American people or is he picking the defense contractors and
- 21:14Speaker 1: foreign lobbies? It seems like now he's picking Trump. the
- 21:19Speaker 1: contractors and the foreign lobby over the American people. And
- 21:24Speaker 1: I hope that's not the case. And it's our job
- 21:26Speaker 1: to put the pressure on him. Now, AOC did an
- 21:29Speaker 1: Instagram story asking her constituents why so many of them
- 21:32Speaker 1: voted for her and then also voted for Donald Trump.
- 21:37Speaker 1: Here is a breakdown of the responses that AOC got.
- 21:41Speaker 13: And the responses were fascinating. People who support both Trump
- 21:44Speaker 13: and me or voted Trump Dem tell us why. She
- 21:47Speaker 13: wasn't the choice of the people, no primary, couldn't interview,
- 21:50Speaker 13: no clear policies. I voted for Trump and then Dems
- 21:53Speaker 13: because he reached out to Muslims. Oh, you know, who
- 21:56Speaker 13: could have predicted that? I voted all Dem, but Dem,
- 21:58Speaker 13: you guys make it so hard. I think I identify
- 22:00Speaker 13: more with you and Bernie. Oh, look, because of Gaza.
- 22:04Speaker 13: It's real simple. Trump and you care for the working class. Well,
- 22:08Speaker 13: Trump doesn't, but that's besides the point right now. Trump
- 22:11Speaker 13: is going to get us the money and let men
- 22:13Speaker 13: have a voice. You're brilliant and have amazing passion. Yeah, sure,
- 22:16Speaker 13: but let's just keep pretending that Democrats aren't alienating men.
- 22:19Speaker 13: We can just keep pretending that. But want it changed
- 22:21Speaker 13: so I went with Trump and blew for the rest
- 22:23Speaker 13: of the ballot to put some breaks. I feel like
- 22:25Speaker 13: you and Trump are both real. Voted for Trump, but
- 22:29Speaker 13: I like you and Bernie. I don't trust either party establishment.
- 22:32Speaker 13: Action and progress or stagnation and excuses. Both of you
- 22:36Speaker 13: push the boundaries and force growth. I feel that both
- 22:39Speaker 13: of you are outsiders compared to the rest of the
- 22:41Speaker 13: DC establishment. I know people who did this and it
- 22:43Speaker 13: was because of Gaza. I supported you and did this.
- 22:46Speaker 13: I felt like I didn't have a choice after Biden's administration.
- 22:49Speaker 13: Voted for Trump and you, not genocide Harris. Dems need Bernie.
- 22:53Speaker 13: He speaks of war as something that is bad. Democrats
- 22:56Speaker 13: became the party that supports war. But you also signified change.
- 23:00Speaker 13: Trump signified change. I've said lately, Trump sounds more like you.
- 23:03Speaker 13: And it goes on and on and on.
- 23:08Speaker 1: So the consensus that I really got from that was
- 23:11Speaker 1: that people... view Trump as anti-establishment. No right wingers went
- 23:20Speaker 1: for Trump because, because he was the voice of the
- 23:24Speaker 1: permanent state and no non right wingers went for the
- 23:26Speaker 1: head either. Trump promised to be pro peace. He promised
- 23:30Speaker 1: to be a disruptive force and the people on both
- 23:35Speaker 1: sides of the political aisle like that both sides recognize
- 23:39Speaker 1: that there is a rot in our government. And they said,
- 23:42Speaker 1: AOC is going to fight the rot. Trump's going to
- 23:44Speaker 1: fight the rot. They're wildly different people with different agendas.
- 23:48Speaker 1: But apparently a lot of them said, we're going to
- 23:51Speaker 1: vote for them together. And it's a fascinating thing. Like AOC,
- 23:56Speaker 1: Trump promised that he was on the side of the people,
- 23:59Speaker 1: not the machine. And unfortunately, this is why I'm talking
- 24:03Speaker 1: to you about the appointments that we're seeing or potential appointments.
- 24:08Speaker 1: The admin is only as good as the personnel. Trump
- 24:11Speaker 1: can be Superman. He can be the greatest president of
- 24:14Speaker 1: all time, but if he installs people who will work
- 24:16Speaker 1: against him in his own administration, the America First agenda
- 24:20Speaker 1: is going to lose. He will not be effective. He
- 24:22Speaker 1: needs good people surrounding him. And all I can say
- 24:26Speaker 1: is that if we continue down this path, it really
- 24:28Speaker 1: is a betrayal to all voters, especially the ones who
- 24:32Speaker 1: usually vote Democrat, but who really believed in Trump and
- 24:35Speaker 1: took a chance on him. Trump needs to deliver for
- 24:38Speaker 1: all of us. And there's still a chance to do it.
- 24:39Speaker 1: I'm not blackpilling you guys. But we need to be
- 24:42Speaker 1: putting pressure on the admin and making our desires very clear. Now,
- 24:48Speaker 1: not all Democrats are being as introspective as AOC. Here
- 24:52Speaker 1: is Joy Reid.
- 24:54Speaker 3: The idea that identity politics was the problem for Democrats
- 24:58Speaker 3: is laughable, considering it wasn't Vice President Kamala Harris who
- 25:02Speaker 3: relentlessly focused on race or gender, either her own or
- 25:05Speaker 3: anyone else's. That would be Donald Trump. In fact, it
- 25:08Speaker 3: was Trump and his running mate, J.D. Vance, who ran
- 25:10Speaker 3: an identity politics entire campaign focused on men. they have
- 25:14Speaker 3: an identity too, you know? I mean, Trump did walk
- 25:17Speaker 3: out to the song, It's a Man's World at the
- 25:19Speaker 3: Republican convention. And again, all the focus on identity politics
- 25:24Speaker 3: came from Trump and Vance, not Democrats.
- 25:29Speaker 1: Yeah, Trump and Vance are the pushers of identity politics.
- 25:34Speaker 1: This woman is going to single-handedly kill her own party.
- 25:37Speaker 1: I hope that they never, ever fire her. Here's the thing.
- 25:41Speaker 1: You're probably going to hear a lot of that argument
- 25:44Speaker 1: coming from the left. I've heard it a few times
- 25:45Speaker 1: from different people other than Joy Reid. Kamala Harris did
- 25:54Speaker 1: actually run on her race and sex, first of all,
- 25:57Speaker 1: but also we have to recognize that that she was
- 26:00Speaker 1: explicitly picked for her role as vice president because of
- 26:04Speaker 1: her race and sex. And the reason she was able
- 26:06Speaker 1: to run as president is because she was vice president.
- 26:09Speaker 1: She was elevated to a position of extreme power based
- 26:12Speaker 1: on her race and based on her sex. Democrats purposely
- 26:17Speaker 1: did not pick the most qualified candidate. And it turns
- 26:20Speaker 1: out that the voters don't reward you for checking diversity boxes.
- 26:23Speaker 1: They go for who they perceive as the best candidate
- 26:26Speaker 1: for the job. And that's just common sense. So Joy Reid,
- 26:29Speaker 1: you're wrong. You did lose because of identity politics. Even
- 26:32Speaker 1: if you're at its most basic level, that you picked
- 26:36Speaker 1: a candidate because of her race and sex is enough
- 26:40Speaker 1: to say that identity politics failed with this election because
- 26:43Speaker 1: Kamala Harris was such a disaster, was such a bad,
- 26:47Speaker 1: bad candidate that not even Democrats in AOC's district were
- 26:51Speaker 1: willing to vote for her. And the place where all
- 26:54Speaker 1: this racist DEI is originating from is, of course, the
- 26:57Speaker 1: university system, where the American gentry class goes to get poisoned.
- 27:03Speaker 1: The taxpayers subsidize institutions that are churning out race Marxists,
- 27:07Speaker 1: who promote diversity boxes over merit, hate American Christian mores,
- 27:12Speaker 1: and who consistently vote to support the left. Kamala Harris
- 27:15Speaker 1: won college-educated voters by 13 points. And there's this perception
- 27:20Speaker 1: that if you go to college, you're smarter than everyone else.
- 27:24Speaker 1: Or at least you should be smarter than everybody else.
- 27:28Speaker 1: And the reality is that that's just not true. In fact,
- 27:31Speaker 1: college educated Americans are more susceptible to government and expert propaganda.
- 27:36Speaker 1: And they've been warped by a cancerous ideology rooted in
- 27:39Speaker 1: progressive political activism over truth seeking. And Trump has a
- 27:44Speaker 1: plan to combat the universities. And I'm intrigued by it.
- 27:48Speaker 1: I would love your thoughts in the comments. I'm going
- 27:50Speaker 1: to be honest with you. I appreciate the effort. I'm
- 27:53Speaker 1: not sure it's going to be effective. But let me
- 27:56Speaker 1: just tell you what he's planning. Trump announced that he
- 27:59Speaker 1: will target the radical left accreditation system and purge the
- 28:03Speaker 1: Marxist DEI bureaucrats. Here is Trump vowing to unleash the
- 28:07Speaker 1: DOJ and prosecute institutions that continue pushing racial discrimination.
- 28:13Speaker 12: Furthermore, I will direct the Department of Justice to pursue
- 28:16Speaker 12: federal civil rights cases against schools that continue to engage
- 28:21Speaker 12: in racial discrimination, and schools that persist in explicit, unlawful
- 28:27Speaker 12: discrimination under the guise of equity will not only have
- 28:30Speaker 12: their endowments taxed, but through budget reconciliation, I will advance
- 28:36Speaker 12: a measure to have them fined up to the entire
- 28:40Speaker 12: amount of their endowment. A portion of the seized funds
- 28:43Speaker 12: will then be used as restitution for victims of these
- 28:46Speaker 12: illegal and unjust policies, policies that hurt our country so badly.
- 28:52Speaker 12: Colleges have gotten hundreds of billions of dollars from hardworking taxpayers,
- 28:57Speaker 12: and now we are going to get this anti-American insanity
- 29:01Speaker 12: out of our institutions once and for all. We are
- 29:05Speaker 12: going to have real education in America.
- 29:09Speaker 1: Thank you. So all that sounds great. The universities, as
- 29:14Speaker 1: Trump alluded to, they are continuing affirmative action despite the
- 29:17Speaker 1: Supreme Court decision, and they need to be punished. Hit
- 29:21Speaker 1: them where it hurts, which is the wallet. DEI bureaucrats
- 29:27Speaker 1: make college more expensive, they inhibit learning, and I'd be
- 29:30Speaker 1: happy to see all of them go. The thing is
- 29:34Speaker 1: that I don't think, unfortunately, you can strong arm the
- 29:37Speaker 1: universities into genuinely reforming because the rot within them is
- 29:43Speaker 1: far too deep. For centuries, universities were Christian. During the
- 29:49Speaker 1: Middle Ages, the primary purpose of an education was learning
- 29:53Speaker 1: to understand and interpret religious texts, especially the Bible. Classical
- 29:58Speaker 1: curriculum included the trivium, grammar, rhetoric, and logic, and the quadrivium, arithmetic, geometry, music,
- 30:05Speaker 1: and astronomy. The trivium provided a foundation in language necessary
- 30:10Speaker 1: for understanding sacred texts, while the quadrivium offered a mathematical
- 30:14Speaker 1: approach to understanding God's creation. So in other words, education
- 30:19Speaker 1: was deeply philosophical and intended to cultivate virtue. Today, Modern
- 30:26Speaker 1: education prioritizes fields of study rooted in Marxism, like fast
- 30:30Speaker 1: studies and queer studies. And then, of course, they prioritize
- 30:33Speaker 1: career preparation. But medieval learning focused on cultivating the soul
- 30:40Speaker 1: fit for communion with God. Christ is the truth. And
- 30:44Speaker 1: without Christ, you cannot pursue the truth. And in fact,
- 30:48Speaker 1: there is no pursuit of truth in modern universities. As
- 30:52Speaker 1: Theodore Roosevelt once said, To educate a man in mind
- 30:55Speaker 1: and not in morals is to educate a menace to society.
- 31:00Speaker 1: And that is what we have done with the entire
- 31:04Speaker 1: swath of college-educated individuals in this country. Just look at
- 31:08Speaker 1: how they voted. So all this is to say that universities,
- 31:11Speaker 1: even the supposedly religious ones, are in a spiritual crisis.
- 31:15Speaker 1: That is the root of the rot. That is the
- 31:17Speaker 1: root of the problem. and the root of the corruption.
- 31:20Speaker 1: And frankly, what the Trump admin should do is, yes,
- 31:23Speaker 1: prosecute them for breaking the law and being discriminatory. That's
- 31:26Speaker 1: totally fine with me. But other than that, I think
- 31:29Speaker 1: they should completely disassociate from these institutions and student loans,
- 31:35Speaker 1: which by the way, drives up the cost of education
- 31:37Speaker 1: and all of the grants and all of the federal,
- 31:42Speaker 1: of the state funding to these corrupted schools and the
- 31:46Speaker 1: government's involvement in the accreditation system in general. Don't just
- 31:49Speaker 1: fire the DEI people, just get rid of it. Get
- 31:52Speaker 1: rid of the government's involvement in accreditation. Accreditation does not
- 31:55Speaker 1: evaluate institutions on their ability to foster genuine intellectual and
- 31:58Speaker 1: spiritual development. It's about jobs. And that's great for trade school,
- 32:03Speaker 1: but what American universities need is to replace our illiterate,
- 32:08Speaker 1: decadent gentry class with a moral one. And step one
- 32:12Speaker 1: is preventing the taxpayers from funding and fueling our university's
- 32:15Speaker 1: bad behavior. No money or entanglements with these institutions. No
- 32:20Speaker 1: more government involvement in accreditation. Free the taxpayers from funding
- 32:25Speaker 1: these entrenched poisonous schools and leave them vulnerable to the
- 32:29Speaker 1: market because none of this is going to be fixed
- 32:33Speaker 1: by the government strong arming the schools. The rod is
- 32:36Speaker 1: too deep. It's better that we just disassociate. And as
- 32:41Speaker 1: I was reflecting on medieval education yesterday, I thought a
- 32:50Speaker 1: lot about how intentions really matter. It's not just what
- 32:53Speaker 1: we do, but why we do it. What are the
- 32:56Speaker 1: priorities that shape our actions? And education is only fulfilling
- 33:01Speaker 1: when it's rooted in a genuine love of learning and
- 33:04Speaker 1: a sincere pursuit of the truth, the divine truth. And
- 33:08Speaker 1: God blesses those who are authentic and pure in their endeavors.
- 33:12Speaker 1: This is how I feel about Trump's transition. What are
- 33:15Speaker 1: the intentions here? Is the presidency more than just a
- 33:20Speaker 1: vanity project for various bureaucrats and anybody associated with Trump?
- 33:24Speaker 1: Or is it about genuinely working to deliver for the
- 33:26Speaker 1: people who put their trust in Trump? Trump owes his
- 33:31Speaker 1: victory to the people who elected him. Like the people
- 33:34Speaker 1: in AOC's district who took a chance on him. He
- 33:37Speaker 1: doesn't owe his victory to defense contractors or foreign governments
- 33:41Speaker 1: or the deep state. We are his employers. We put
- 33:44Speaker 1: him in office and he made promises to us. So
- 33:48Speaker 1: who's guiding Trump? What are his true intentions? Because based
- 33:52Speaker 1: on the personnel choices so far, say for Homan, I'm
- 33:56Speaker 1: not seeing his actions align with the principles that he
- 33:59Speaker 1: campaigned on. I'm open to it changing and I hope
- 34:02Speaker 1: that it does, but I'm concerned. We have a once
- 34:06Speaker 1: in a century opportunity to challenge the oppressive state, to
- 34:09Speaker 1: diminish its control over our lives, and to promote peace
- 34:12Speaker 1: in America's interests rather than costly foreign entanglements that have
- 34:17Speaker 1: nothing to do with us. And if these appointments continue
- 34:21Speaker 1: to be bad, Trump risks going down as a disappointment.
- 34:24Speaker 1: And I don't want that. None of us do. I
- 34:27Speaker 1: don't want to discourage any of you because, again, I'm
- 34:29Speaker 1: still hopeful. I desperately want this admin to deliver on
- 34:32Speaker 1: the promises that Trump made, which is why I'm sharing
- 34:34Speaker 1: my thoughts. We have to keep the pressure on the admin.
- 34:38Speaker 1: Let Trump know. that you're dissatisfied with bad appointments. We
- 34:43Speaker 1: need better personnel, people who reflect the values that Trump
- 34:46Speaker 1: promised us. And if Trump wants to go down in
- 34:49Speaker 1: history as the greatest president in the United States, which
- 34:51Speaker 1: I think he can do, he needs to answer the people.
- 34:54Speaker 1: As Confucius said, the superior man is concerned with the
- 34:58Speaker 1: truth of the thing, not with its appearance. If you
- 35:02Speaker 1: act with sincerity and authenticity, your aims will align with success.
- 35:07Speaker 1: So with that, I say, deliver for us, Trump. Never
- 35:10Speaker 1: forget who you work for. And that's all I have
