  Speaker 2: when somebody disrespects our flag to say, get that son

• 0:37
  Speaker 4: President Donald J.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: Trump.
• 0:38
  Speaker 4: Listen, my name is Leonard McKelvey, commonly known as Charlamagne
• 0:41
  Speaker 4: the God.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: I am an American citizen, and I.
• 0:42
  Speaker 4: Reserve the right to criticize every elected official in this country, Okay, Democrat,
• 0:46
  Speaker 4: a Republican, because we have the right to. And when
• 0:49
  Speaker 4: you see blatant corruption happening in this country at our expense,
• 0:52
  Speaker 4: you got to ring the alarm about it.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: Okay. See.
• 0:54
  Speaker 4: I don't know if you heard, but the Justice Department
• 0:57
  Speaker 4: on yesterday announced the creation of a nearly one point
• 1:00
  Speaker 4: eight billion dollar fund to compensate President Donald Trump's allies
• 1:05
  Speaker 4: who claimed they were unfairly targeted by the Biden administration.
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: Let's go to ABC eight News for the republice.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: Knew this afternoon. The Justice Department just announced the creation
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: of a new anti weapmonization fund. It's paid for by
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: taxpayers and worth well over one point seven billion dollars.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: Fund will compensate Americans who claim they were wrongfully targeted
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: by the Biden administration. President Trump accused the IRS of
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: leaking his twenty nineteen tax returns, but agreed to drop
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: a ten billion dollar lawsuit in exchange for an apology
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: and creating this fund. Some Republicans and Democrats are expressing concern.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: It's an utterly lawless plan that is being forwarded, and
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: if our Republican colleagues have any respect for the Constitution
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: and the powers of Congress, they will move to block it.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: That's action that Congress needs to take. I don't think
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: you can do that.
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: You can't just take a billion or ten billion dollars
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: nilaterally with the executive branch.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: The Attorney General will appoint a five person commission to
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: run the fund. According to ABC News, while President Trump
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: won't receive any money, so the rioters charged with storming
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: the Capitol could qualify for payments.
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: Basically, the president is able to pay his supporters from
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: a government agency he controls with taxpayer money. If you
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: are a Trump supporter who feels like you were politically
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: targeted by the justice system, you can submit a claim.
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: It doesn't matter if it was from the Russia collusion investigation.
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: To the nearly sixteen hundred people who committed an insurrection
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: in this country, you might be entitled the compensation, and
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: the compensation is coming from we, the taxpayers. Does this
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: apply to the thirty three people who participated in the
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: Capitol riots who were pardoned or had their sentences commuted,
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: but got rearrested, got charged, got convicted for new crimes?
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: Are they eligible to get some of our money?
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: Okay, it's bad enough they got pardoned for trying to
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: overthrow the results of an election, but now we got
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: to pay them even though they got pardoned and some
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: of them committed new crimes. America, I don't care what
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: your race is, I don't care what your party is.
• 3:04
  Speaker 4: There is no way on God's green Earth that we
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: can be okay with this. I know America loves a
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: good scam. Okay, this country was built on pyramid schemes.
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: All right, we live in an era where folks will
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: get on a podcast to convince you to refinancial house
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: to buy crypto, but using taxpayer dollars to create a
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: one point seven billion dollar fund for your political allies.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: Do you understand how insane that sounds?
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: Okay, Americans out here arguing over student loan forgiveness and
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: medicaid cuts, affordable housing, and whether teachers deserve raises. But
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: we got to sit back and watch Trump and his
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: friends rob us of money that should be used for US.
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: Taxpayer dollars should be used for social security, in Medicare
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: and Medicaid, and national defense and.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: Keeping your local community running.
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: Okay, that's what taxpayer dollars is supposed to be for
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: people out here getting denied food assistance. Veterans who fought
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: for this country are fighting for healthcare. Public school teachers
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: are doing go fundmeans for pencils and other basic supplies.
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: You got libraries closing because it cuts the federal budgets.
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: But you are using billions of dollars and taxpayer money,
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: money that should be used to fund essential services at
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: the federal, state and local levels, for a political reimbursement program.
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: Let's be clear, President Trump is just paying his goons. Okay,
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: this is incentive for his goons to do his bidding
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: again if he needs them to. Okay, get you get
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: a pardon and cash in your pocket. What they gonna
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: stow him next voting boosts in the midterms. Perhaps this
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: is why people hate government. Okay, you're taking money from
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: people struggling to pay rent, buy groceries, and survive inflation,
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: which is served under the Trump administration, by the way, Okay,
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: it's at as highest level in three years.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: You are taking taxpayer.
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: Dollars and redirecting it to people who are connected to
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: political power. That's why people get cynical about politics, because
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: the rules always seem different depending on who you are
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: and who you're aligned with. And when you have a
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: president like Donald J. Trump who doesn't even pretend to care, Okay,
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: that's what we have in the White House right now,
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: a president like Donald J. Trump who doesn't even pretend
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: to care. Do you remember last week when President Trump said,
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: and I quote, I don't think I don't think about
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: americans financial situations. I don't think about anybody. I think
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: about one thing. We cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon.
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: That's what he said in regards to the Iran war.
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: He told you he doesn't care about your financial situation. Well,
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: he was on Fox News with Brett Baer and he
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: doubled down.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: Let's listen.
• 5:29
  Speaker 5: You can imagine democrats and political pundits the jump at
• 5:33
  Speaker 5: it jumped all over this state.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: You made the other day. You were asked on the
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: when you were leaving punting.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: Sent our American financial stick NationAn demotivating. You can make
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: him kill, not even a little bit.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: It's the only thing that matters is that I'm talking
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: about Iran. They can't have a dupular weapon.
• 5:50
  Speaker 5: I don't think about Americans joys.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: I don't think about anybody.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: I think about one point. You could not let Huran
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: have redoutionary weapons.
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: That's really just a perfect station to make it again,
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: you can imagine how many people stop the sound bud At.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: I don't think about America. The situation. So what's your
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: response to that? Frame? Is very simple.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: When people hear me say it, everybody agrees short term pain.
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: It's going to be short term pain, but the pain
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: is much less than people thought.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: Two things can be true.
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: Iran doesn't need to have a nuclear weapon, but you,
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: as the president of the United States of America, have
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: to care about American's financial situation. That's the whole point
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: of being a president. I would think that the president
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: can multitask, Okay, especially a president that told you he
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: was going to fix the economy on day one. He
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: told you that he won the election based off one
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: word groceries, but he never cared if you actually could
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: afford any Okay.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Actions will always speak louder than words.
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: Actions will always tell you what politicians value more than
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: rhetoric does. And everyone's sitting around waiting for his golden
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: age to happen. It's not not for you anyway. For
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: him and his family, his allies.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: Oh, they getting fat while you starf.
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: Okay, and that's why our taxpayer dollars going to this
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: weaponization fund to compensate his allies should.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: Piss you off.
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: Okay, you should be outraged. You should actually be in
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: the street protesting against this.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: Okay. Not only is it corrupt, it is a.
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: Blatant slapping the face to the economic hardships you folks
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: are facing. Okay, Trump told you he don't care what
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: you're going through financially.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: He's not even acting like he sees what you're going through,
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: all right.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: He's not even detached from people's economic struggles. He just
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: doesn't care.
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: He's pushing for financial wind falls for his allies, his family,
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: not you. And we wonder why people get radicalized in
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: this country. This is how Batman becomes Batman. Okay, this
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: is how Dad Devil becomes dead Devil. This is the
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: vigilante origin story. People play Tupoc police.
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: You got to be logical, you know. If I know
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: in this hotel room, they have food every day, and
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: I'm knocked on the door every day to eat, and
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: they tell and they open the door, let me see
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: the party. Let me see. Like they'm throwing salami all
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: over the opportunity. I mean, just like throwing food around.
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: But they're telling me there's no food in here. You
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: know what I'm saying. Every day I'm standing outside trying
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: to sing my way in. You know what I'm saying,
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: We are hungry, Please let us in. We are hungry.
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: Please let us say. After about a week that song
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: was gonna change that we hungry. We need some food.
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: After two three weeks, it's like, you know, give me
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: on the rood and wrecking out of the door. And
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: after a year and you just like, you know what
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: I'm saying, a picking the lock, coming through the door, blasting.
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. It's like you hungry, you
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: reach your level, you don't want anymore. We asked ten
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: years ago, we was asking with the panthers. We was
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: asking with them, you know, a civil rights movement. We
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: was asking. You know now now those people that were asking,
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: they're all dead and in jail. So now what do
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: you think we're gonna do.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: It's just common sense. Okay.
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: If you're the president of the United States and you
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: openly sound unconcerned about people was financial paid while using
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: taxpayer dollars for political priorities, don't be shocked when Americans
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: start wondering who government is really working for and then
• 9:09
  Speaker 4: proceed the tedest government apart. Please give Donald J. Trump
