Brooke Goldstein | Founder of the Lawfare Project Previews Her Unite Against Terror Rally Outside NYC DSA HQ · Sid & Friends In The Morning

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Unite Against Terror Rally, 25 years after 9-11, comes your
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: way September the 8th, which I believe is Tuesday, right?
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: That comes your way Tuesday, 6 p.m. right outside the
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: DSA headquarters in New York City. That's on 14 Jefferson Street.
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: And the founder of the Lawfare Project and End Jew Hatred,
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: who's been on the show a bunch of times, I
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: think she's great, Brooke Goldstein is here again. Brooke, good morning.
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: How are you? I'm great. Thank you for having me again.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: I appreciate it.
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: You did a great job last time, too. You guys
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: had that big rally outside of Gracie Mansion. That's the
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: last time you were here to go after the mayor. Now,
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: this time, Unite Against Terror Rally. Folks that aren't sure,
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: is that about just solidarity amongst New Yorkers for 25
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: years or the fact that the mayor feels his compulsion
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: to be down there that day when really nobody wants
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: him there? Which one is that?
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: Well, it's all of the above and it's more. And first,
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: I want to thank you because you are a huge
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: part of making the Anti-Mom Donnie rally a success. We
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: had over a thousand people show up outside of Gracie Mansion.
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: And this time we're taking it to the DSA headquarters
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: downtown this September the 8th. at 6 p.m. at the
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: corner of Essex and Stroud Square, which is just around
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: the corner from the DSA. Now, this is coming right
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: before September 11th, and I want to be very clear
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: what this is about, all right? September 11th was an
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: attack driven by Islamist extremism. This ideology was not defeated.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: It has become normalized. And the lessons of 9-11 is
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: that we cannot let extremist ideology fester in the United States.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: And the number one proponent of anti-Americanism, extremist Islamist ideology
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: is the DSA. The DSA is the Trojan horse for
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: radical Islam. They went on October the 8th. They promoted
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: a rally one day after the attack against Israelis on
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: October the 7th. They supported Hamas. They supported candidates like Mamdani.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: They have DSA-associated candidates. And their mouthpiece, Assan Piker, saying
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: America deserves 9-11. They're supporting candidates like Abdul Al-Said, who's
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: running an anti-American Islamic extremist campaign in Michigan. And you
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: know what's so ironic about this? Their number one complaint? Jews. Jews.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: And one of the people... What's.
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: Happening on the streets of Michigan? Right. What's happening on
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: the streets of Dearborn? They're not waving American flags. You
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: have these massive gatherings of radical Muslims. They're not pledging
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: allegiance to America. They're waving Hezbollah flags. They're waving Hamas flags.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: They're going on records. They're being interviewed pledging allegiance to
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: foreign Islamic nations and terrorist groups. So to divert your
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: attention away from what's really going on here, which is
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: an invasion of extremist Islamist ideology that is legitimized by
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: the DSA, they want you to focus on the so-called
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Don't worry about Qatar funding our schools to
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: the tunes of billions of dollars. Don't worry about the
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: fact that the candidates that they support are backed by
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: Muslim Brotherhood money, a group that has literally dedicated itself
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: to destroying America. No, Jewish influence is the problem. America
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: is the problem. Capitalism is the problem. We've heard this before.
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: This has to be defeated. And this is why hundreds,
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: if not thousands of Americans are showing up. And guess
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: who we're showing up with? We're showing up with the
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: family members of victims of 9-11. We have Giovanni Galante,
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: who started the Mamdani petition that he should not show
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: up on 9-11. He is going to be one of
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: our lead speakers. We have Michael Weinstein, another 9-11 family member.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: Walter Matusa, another 9-11 family member. They are showing up
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: as proud Americans to protest the DSA. Great. And I'll
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: tell you something else. One more thing. When you look
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: at the history books and you see who saved America,
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: it's going to be those who spoke at these protests
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: and rallies, those who had the courage to stand up,
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: to show up, and to protest against the extremism taking
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: over our country.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: Well said. Giovanni Galante came on this show when he
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: only had 1,400 signatures. A week later, he had 80,000.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: He's been on this show two or three times. Him
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: and Charles Wolfe and Jeanette Pick, a whole bunch of them.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: So he is a huge Sid Rosenberg and Sid and
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: Friends in the Morning fan, Giovanni Galante. And he's done
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: a great job. Chevalier is the lady running for Congress
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: that Mamdani actually endorsed that went to that rally on
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: October the 8th. 2023 and glorified what Hamas did. So
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: just so you guys know, you got Chevalier, you got
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: Claire Valdez. We got our own here in New York
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: and they got outside. He's in Michigan.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: And Mike Rogers is going to beat him. We got
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: plenty of those folks running in November and some of
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: them are going to win. That brings me to JD Vance.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: So I spent the weekend in Las Vegas. I saw
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: our mutual friend, Jane Zirkle and my cousin runs the,
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: the RJC, Norm Coleman and Matt Brooks and, And they
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: decided this year that the keynote speaker was going to
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: be Vice President J.D. Vance, okay? And I spoke earlier
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: that day, and I said, even though I'm a Marco
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: Rubio guy through and through, I'm Ted Cruz, give Vance
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: a chance. Because in the end, Vance against a Democrat, Brooke,
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: I'm voting for Vance, okay? But he's not my favorite.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: Not even top three. Long story short, he speaks. I
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: was disappointed. I went to Twitter. I blasted him. And
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: now I'm getting backlash from all kinds of people. What
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: are your thoughts on the possibility of J.D. Vance being
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: the president, being the way he speaks about Israel and
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: specifically his relationship with Tucker Carlson?
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: Well, again, I would– and this is my personal point
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: of view. I would really hesitate to even make this
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: about Israel. It's not even about what the vice president
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: thinks about Israel. I mean, what are his views? Why
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: is he hosting a Hamptons fundraiser with Omid Malik? Why
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: is he not stronger in his rhetoric when it comes
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: to criticizing Tucker Carlson and his insanity and his madness?
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: And how can we make this difference? He's trying to
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: distinguish between a Tucker Carlson and Nick Fuentes. The only
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: difference is that Tucker is older with a more media
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: following and Nick is younger with a new audience and
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: just a little bit more crass. I mean, he just
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: seems to have flip-flops.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: He is.
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: was very strong against Iran. He openly advocated for military
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: action against Iran at the RNC in 2024. And it
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: seems as though he's done a flip-flop. It's an issue. So,
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: you know, backpedaling on things that are so important to
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: American national security less than two years later really makes
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: you question what his core values are. And so then
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: he went to speak. And I'm not quite sure why
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: it was such a secret closed door meeting that then
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: got leaked. I mean, these are the vice president of
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: the United States. These are public positions. And he said
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: all the things that the audience wanted. I would want
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: him to say I had actually no problem with anything
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: that he said. I think he was really strong against radicalism,
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: obviously on the left. But, you know, you got to
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: be strong against radicalism and extremism, both on the left
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: and the right. And the latter is a little bit
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: disappointing right now.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: Excellent answer. Well said.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: So let's get back to this big rally coming up
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: on Tuesday. Again, you mentioned families of the 9-11 victims
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: are going to be there. That is a huge, huge thing. Now,
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: last time when you drew a thousand people outside Gracie Mansion,
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: you had about 30 speakers. What can people expect to
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: see next Tuesday?
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: Okay, so I haven't counted the number of speakers, but
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: I think we're about 20, 25. I mentioned the 9-11
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: family members. We have the amazing Lizzie Sivetsky coming. We
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: have Shabbos Kestenbaum, who's a huge PragerU personality, absolute genius.
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: We have the incredibly beautiful Tanya Zuckerbrot, who's also an activist,
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: Aneela Ali, who is the head of the American Muslim
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: and Multifaith Women's Empowerment Council. An incredible lineup, of course.
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: I'm going to be there, Sid. You are always invited
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: to speak. You always happen to be out of town.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: When we do this. No, you do realize that President
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: Trump and all of us Republicans have our midterm convention
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: on that day we start in Dallas. That's a big deal.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: I know. I know.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: So I have to go to Dallas.
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: This is a couple days before 9-11, and I hope
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: you're going to be spreading the message there as well.
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: And again, it's not just radicalism within the DSA. You're
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: seeing it in the extreme left, and you're seeing it
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: now in the woke right. And it's quite problematic in
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: this country, and it has to be defeated. And the
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: only way for it to be defeated is for regular
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: folks like me, like you, to show up on September
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: the 8th at 6 p.m., to protest 25 years after 9-11.
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: We are remembering this, but they are excusing it, okay?
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: In 2001, they needed their planes. Today, the DSA literally
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: hands Islamist radicals a platform and supports them. That is
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: where we are 25 years after 9-11. It's unacceptable. Show
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: up September the 8th. at 6 p.m. near the corner
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: of Essex and Strauss. And obviously, you can go to
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: our socials, EndJewHatred on Instagram. Go to my socials, and
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: you'll see updates, rally updates there.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: What a great job, Brooke Goldstein, once again, the founder
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: of the Lawfare Project. End your hatred. Brooke is on
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: the right side of things all the time and one
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: of our real great heroes and fighters. Really excellent, excellent lady. Brooke,
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: great job here today. Best of luck on Tuesday. If
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: something gets canceled, I'll see you out there. If not,
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: I'll be talking for you in Dallas. Thank you so much.
