Dr. Darren Beattie from Revolver News joins me to discuss the latest in the case against Rep. Matt Gaetz and his ongoing battle with the Deep State. We also discuss Joe Biden's new plan to ease sanctions on Venezuela, and the latest from the House Judiciary Committee on abortion and the trial of Michael Zussman. Finally, we discuss George W. Bush's Freudian slip to Cori Bush and her call to use the power of government to fundamentally dismantle the Republican Party under the guise of extremism. And we discuss why the impeachment of Donald Trump is a good thing, and why we should all be thankful for it. This episode is brought to you live from my office in Washington, D.C., where we are simulcast live from the Firebrand Live broadcast from my congressional office on Capitol Hill. Please remember to tweet me with any and all feedback.

00:04:29.000Matt Gaetz was one of the very few members in the entire Congress who bothered to stand up against permanent Washington on behalf of his constituents.
00:04:42.000Matt Gaetz right now, he's a problem in the Democratic Party.
00:04:45.000He could cause a lot of hiccups in passing of laws.
00:04:48.000So we're going to keep running those stories to keep hurting him.
00:04:52.000If you stand for the flag and kneel in prayer, if you want to build America up and not burn her to the ground, then welcome, my fellow patriots!
00:05:28.000We're simulcast streaming out of my congressional office in Washington, D.C. on Capitol Hill.
00:05:32.000We have Dr. Darren Beattie, the publisher of Revolver News, that will be joining us in just a moment to go over some exclusive reporting on Revolver.News regarding the Buffalo shooting, regarding the Ministry of Truth's demise, and actually how Nina Jankiewicz really is involved in some of the most concerning globalist activities That should be a major victory for our people.
00:05:55.000Certainly, it's a great scalp for Revolver.News.
00:05:58.000We're going to go over the craziness with the Bushes from George W. Bush and his Freudian slip to Cori Bush and her call to use the power of government to fundamentally dismantle the Republican Party under the guise of extremism.
00:06:13.000And I'm going to break down the latest from the House Judiciary Committee on abortion and The game that is really being played in the trial of Michael Zussman, conducted by John Durham.
00:06:27.000Dr. Beattie and I are going to discuss it.
00:06:29.000But first, I want to tell you what happened just on the floor of the House of Representatives moments ago.
00:06:34.000Once again, the left's problematic response to economic turmoil returns to its default setting.
00:06:40.000FDR, Jimmy Carter, Obama, Mussolini, Maduro.
00:06:44.000What do all these unfortunate leaders have in common?
00:06:48.000Using their seats of power to artificially manipulate markets.
00:06:52.000They have presided over more economic failures and left their countries worse off when they entered office.
00:06:58.000And frankly, worse off certainly when they left.
00:07:01.000So obviously the same could be said of Joe Biden.
00:07:03.000One quarter into this presidency, we are in a real disaster mode.
00:07:07.000And he is probably lucky enough to forget all the crisis that he creates.
00:07:12.000Now, I just voted no moments ago on the Democrat bill, H.R., It's called the Consumer Price Gouging Prevention Act.
00:07:21.000They always name these things the funniest stuff.
00:07:23.000The bill relies on this colloquially awarded title to unite Democrats rather than to actually help our economy.
00:07:29.000The bill would enable President Biden to issue An emergency proclamation making it illegal to sell customer fuel at a price that is unconscionably expensive.
00:08:02.000And by the way, now that we're talking about Venezuela, it's important to note, breaking news, the Biden administration is simultaneously planning to ease sanctions on Venezuela, this dictatorship essentially, while at the same time continuing a sanctions regime against Russia.
00:08:18.000So quite a bit going on there and it shows how our leaders, particularly now, are making foolish decisions.
00:08:23.000But it's not just the Democrats that have made foolish decisions.
00:08:26.000Dr. Darren Beattie from Revolver.News will be joining us in just a moment.
00:08:30.000He and I have been constant critics of the neoconservatives and the Uniparty wanting to invade every distant land and trade caves back and forth with despots in faraway places, oceans away.
00:08:43.000And really the person that got that kicked off was George W. Bush, who made quite a bit of news with this slip, making remarks yesterday.
00:08:59.000Political opponents are imprisoned or otherwise eliminated from participating in the electoral process.
00:09:07.000The result is an absence of checks and balances in Russia and the decision of one man to launch a wholly unjustified and brutal invasion of Iraq.
00:10:30.000The debate in the Republican Party is over.
00:10:33.000And the reality is you've got a lot of Republicans who are using whether Ukraine or Somalia as yet another excuse to deploy our bravest and best Americans to squander the treasure of our nation and.
00:10:49.000And the Democrats seem to be joining them.
00:10:51.000Like, were you surprised, Darren, that the squad has been totally signed up for this Ukraine war and totally silent on Joe Biden reengaging in hostilities in Somalia?
00:11:03.000That's a great question, and actually no, I'm not really surprised at all.
00:11:11.000I know there's the kind of standard notion that, oh yeah, the left has a tradition of opposing war and militarism, and that is true up to a point.
00:11:25.000But things have changed, and they've changed in such a way that the entire National security apparatus, the same apparatus that's pushing us into these wars, is an apparatus that has effectively become the guardian,
00:11:43.000politically, of the left in the United States, to the extent that the apparatus itself has become largely weaponized domestically to target people who oppose the left, rather than actual foreign threats.
00:11:59.000From that perspective, from the perspective of actually political alliances, it actually kind of makes sense that the squad, notwithstanding the theoretical objections that the left might have to empire and war and all of that, would actually stand up for their allies and their greatest benefactors, namely the national security establishment.
00:12:22.000What's far more puzzling to me are the people on the right Who still venerate this national security establishment despite the fact that it's been entirely weaponized against them and its new purpose is effectively to label them as domestic terrorists and destroy them.
00:12:44.000So I actually find it far more puzzling to see The rah-rahs and the salutes and just this obsequiousness and totally unearned veneration of the national security state by a lot of uninformed people on the right still.
00:13:03.000I mean, when I was elected to Congress, I believed the FBI, the DOJ, the CDC that those were the good guys.
00:13:12.000And then like one day we woke up and, you know, the CDC wanted the powers of the CIA and ended up with the credibility of CNN. And the FBI was willing to just become the enforcement wing of the Democratic Party.
00:13:25.000And we still do have Republicans that venerate not only these institutions in the United States and globally, I want to get to, though, what the left is doing to try to use some of these globalist entities to facilitate political goals.
00:13:40.000You've got a great exclusive piece at Revolver.News, Busted.
00:13:44.000Biden's Minister of Truth, Nina Jankiewicz, participated in secret NATO-funded cabal to subvert Western democracies using disinformation as a cover.
00:13:54.000Break down the piece, the conclusions, and how people really need to be thinking about The future incarnations of these appendages of the federal government that ostensibly are there to preserve democracy, but in reality may be undermining the very same.
00:14:10.000Yes, so this is one of the biggest pieces we've done.
00:14:18.000It's not just about Nita Yankovic, who is, of course, A kind of clownish figure and a clownish representative of something far more dark and ominous and important, and that is this disinformation industry.
00:14:32.000So, I'd encourage your viewers, go to revolver.news and read this piece in full, and I'll just walk through a couple of the most salient and explosive points.
00:14:43.000So, basically, Nina Dyankovic, with whom I've had a contentious history On Twitter, going back quite some time, she attacked me for daring to point out someone called Brandy Zadrozny, who basically made a living doxing Trump supporters and ruining their lives.
00:15:05.000So we got into a little argument about that, and then a friend of mine tipped me off to something very interesting about her years ago, and that was that She's involved in this group called the Integrity Initiative.
00:15:25.000This is really a Snowden-tier leak for the age of the disinformation industry, and it was totally suppressed throughout the Western media when it came out.
00:15:36.000What this is is a group, they call them clusters of academics, journalists, think tankers, national security bureaucrats, and so forth.
00:15:47.000Clusters of friendlies who act in secret And when the time comes, they're given a signal to coordinate and conduct secretive influence campaigns on behalf of the security state.
00:15:59.000And if you go to revolver.news, you'll see some examples of how that functions.
00:16:03.000For instance, there was a case in Spain where a defense minister was about to be appointed, and now these Dark regime forces decided, you know what?
00:16:17.000In other words, he's quote-unquote pro-Kremlin, so we need to get rid of him.
00:16:21.000And so what they did was they activated these integrity initiative clusters from Spain, from the UK, and other places.
00:16:29.000They coordinated a Twitter campaign, and within a little over a week, This poor guy, the Spanish guy was going to be appointed to a high level position.
00:16:39.000That appointment was killed and somebody more friendly to the regime was put in place.
00:16:44.000And so There are a couple of really important take-homes from this.
00:16:49.000One, it underscores the point that I've been making, Revolver's been making for a long time, that Twitter is not a normal company.
00:16:58.000It is absolutely crucial as a playground for Intel-associated influence operations, and that's its chief value.
00:17:08.000And this is a premier case of that fact, using Twitter as a playground for influence ops.
00:17:13.000And secondly, This gets to the funding of this organization.
00:17:17.000It's not technically a government organization, it's an NGO, but it's funded by NATO, funded by the UK government, funded by the US State Department, and so its motto is defending democracy against disinformation, and yet they're caught red-handed in these leaks.
00:17:36.000Secretly meddling to influence the political process of a fellow NATO democracy.
00:17:44.000So that's just one example and I can stop and have you react and I'm very happy to go into more because all of these are explosive.
00:17:52.000Well, they're explosive and they're repeatable.
00:17:54.000See, the key thing that viewers need to understand here is the pattern recognition.
00:17:59.000To our production team, we're getting a lot of comments about a little bit of echo in our mic and audio, so hopefully we'll get that fixed and lined up.
00:18:07.000I appreciate everyone's patience with us as we do something unique and different here.
00:18:12.000So, Darren, you write in this piece...
00:18:14.000If I can interject just on the production side, am I supposed to be able to see you?
00:18:27.000Tell me what the hornet's nest of NGOs is, because this is a key part of the infrastructure for a lot of these influence operations, to have...
00:18:36.000These kind of left-wing NGOs that often have some nexus to the Soros operation or other left-wing actors globally, and then to have US activities or NATO activities sort of co-venture, not for the sake of protection, but for the sake of politics.
00:18:54.000Yeah, and you see this typically with a lot of these cut-out type organizations.
00:19:02.000NATO is a big part of the assault on free speech that's taken place over the past five or so years.
00:19:09.000And that's what's emerging through Through leaks like this and other things.
00:19:14.000Just one little component from the leak is one of the other names that came up, a name called Ben Nimmo, who was also a part of that UK inner cluster that Nina Yankovic and also Anne Applebaum and a bunch of other winners were a part of.
00:19:31.000So at the time this leak came out, Ben Nimmo worked for a group called the DFR Lab, which is the Atlantic Council's disinformation scam cutout And this is of course also funded by the usual suspects, NATO, UK, US State Department.
00:19:50.000And just to give you a sense of how incestuous this ecology is of the disinformation industry, Ben Nimmo's position now is he works directly for Facebook.
00:20:02.000In a leading role to identify the threat of foreign influence operations.
00:20:08.000Here's a guy whose name that comes up in one of the most scandalous, exposed influence operations of the century that's been just aggressively censored.
00:20:19.000And now he's one of the leads at Facebook to identify influence.
00:20:22.000So we begin to really detect a pattern here.
00:20:25.000There's all this stuff is funded by NATO, by the UK government, by the US government.
00:20:31.000They all use buzzwords like disinformation, like democracy, Integrity, incidentally, is a favorite buzzword that comes up repeatedly.
00:20:40.000But it's all a scam, and all it is is an excuse to run intelligence-grade influence operations against domestic citizens within the Western countries, including the United States, All under this sham guise of protecting democracies against information.
00:21:00.000And although these leaks were explosive and important when they came out and were totally shut down by the mainstream media, only now do we really fully appreciate the importance of these leaks given the emergence seemingly everywhere.
00:21:15.000The disinformation industry is probably one of the biggest growth industries in Biden's crumbling economy.
00:21:24.000And there's sort of a corollary that if they're not calling everyone a disinformation peddler, they're calling everyone an extremist, a white supremacist.
00:21:34.000And those two things run really in parallel and in concert with one another.
00:21:39.000And so while you saw the Biden administration stumbling to To set up this disinformation apparatus and really failing to do so, ultimately, you saw the United States Congress passing sweeping legislation to give the FBI wild authorities to be able to investigate not crimes, but thought crimes and bad politics.
00:22:02.000I spoke against this measure on the floor of the House of Representatives.
00:23:07.000The last press secretary thought that COVID discussions on Facebook rooted in science were so extreme that Mark Zuckerberg had to de-platform these people, take them away from the digital world.
00:23:19.000This press secretary wrongly tweeted that Fox News is racist.
00:23:23.000I wonder if she thinks all of Fox's viewers are dangerous to the American people.
00:23:31.000This bill is about whether or not you want the Department of Homeland Security looking over your shoulder at the shows you watch, the websites you visit, some politically incorrect meme you liked, some joke you forwarded, and any bad association you might have had.
00:23:47.000If you're not a racist, maybe your neighbor is, and you weren't anti-racist enough to disallow it.
00:23:55.000These things aren't criminal, of course.
00:23:57.000They're bad politics at worst in most cases, which is exactly the point of this bill.
00:24:03.000They're trying to deploy criminal, even anti-terrorism authorities, against what they deem as bad politics.
00:24:10.000How long until mainstream Christianity is deemed domestic extremism?
00:24:17.000You know all the domestic extremists, they declare their pronouns.
00:24:22.000So if you don't declare your pronouns, maybe you're a domestic extremist too.
00:24:27.000Under this bill, how long until Facebook jail means a government file on you?
00:24:32.000A higher interest rate on your home loan your spouse fired from their job.
00:24:36.000You know, at first I was a critic of the disinformation board, but it might go down as one of the most efficient government entities in all of history.
00:24:42.000It took only one action and it actually shut down disinformation by pausing its own activities.
00:24:50.000The worst part of this bill is how it puts a target on the back of every one of our military service members.
00:24:56.000This bill will sic the FBI on our military, not to prevent or investigate crimes, but to prosecute thought crimes.
00:25:05.000The problem with our military is wokeness at the Pentagon, not white supremacy in our ranks.
00:25:13.000Even the much maligned Lloyd Austin admitted that 99% are doing the right thing.
00:25:18.000A recent DOD report showed that less than 100 people in the force of 2 million were problematic in any way.
00:25:24.000We seem so intent on a neo-Nazi witch hunt in our own battalions while we freely send 40 billion dollars, much of which will end up in the hands of the Azov battalion without much inquiry.
00:25:38.000I am sincerely worried about domestic extremism.
00:25:41.000But from my vantage point, it's coming from America's political left.
00:25:45.000And you should really think about that.
00:25:47.000How domestic extremism is truly in the eye of the beholder.
00:26:06.000Dr. Beattie, where is this all going, and who is at risk in our country?
00:26:11.000Well, that was an excellent, excellent speech, first of all.
00:26:16.000So, great job, and it's one of the many The joys of seeing you operate politically is to repeatedly own Lloyd Austin.
00:26:29.000It's great to see, and he deserves it, because not only are these people mediocrity, but they're operating in positions that have a disastrous impact on the country, which you described in the clip above.
00:26:43.000And it's really true, and it's more pressing than ever, this question of Extremism, they're trying to say, okay, extremism is the entire GOP agenda.
00:26:52.000Well, at least they're coming out and saying it explicitly, and they're not hiding behind layers of obfuscatory language and just bullcrap like you see from the bureaucracies that are really set up to prosecute this.
00:27:06.000Well, that's what you have to admire about the squad, right?
00:27:08.000Let's get Cori Bush's statement up where she did just what you described.
00:27:14.000Congresswoman Bush issues a statement where she says, White supremacist violence is not an aberration.
00:27:20.000It is embedded in American institutions.
00:27:23.000Unfortunately, the Republican Party has become the party of unfettered white supremacist violence.
00:27:32.000We must take swift action in condemning it, but remember in some...
00:27:41.000In order to truly eradicate it, we must call out white supremacy in all its forms, and she then claims that's the reason for the bill.
00:27:51.000So she's saying that white supremacy in the Republican Party cannot be separated from one another, and that the bill is essentially to take out the Republican Party.
00:28:02.000You've got to admire Congresswoman Bush's explicitness.
00:28:07.000She's refreshingly honest, and that's one of the kind of The unwitting benefits of having very low IQ people is they're not very good at obfuscatory language and you get these gaps.
00:28:20.000And so between Cori Bush admitting that this is all about labeling GOP as domestic extremists and George W. Bush admitting that the war against Iraq was brutal, the Bushes are on a streak these days.
00:28:37.000But it's a very serious issue, what Cori Bush says, because I'll remind your audience that the Department of Homeland Security, where this ill-fated disinformation governance board was housed, and we haven't seen the last of this, by the way, and we can get into that.
00:28:56.000The Department of Homeland Security under Trump issued a memo stipulating that White supremacist domestic extremism is the number one national security threat to the country.
00:29:13.000You can only imagine what they think now.
00:29:16.000Probably the same thing because it's the same people and they were just as hostile to the American people under Trump as they are now.
00:29:21.000But the thing is, it's remarkable that the One of the biggest and most powerful national security bureaucracies in the country, indeed in the world, that was set up in the aftermath of 9-11 to protect Americans against 9-11-style terrorist events is now basically said that Dissidents,
00:29:43.000political dissidents, anyone who opposes the regime, Trump supporters effectively, because that's what they mean by white supremacists, they mean the GOP, that this is the number one national security threat to the country.
00:29:54.000This is very dangerous talk, and this is the new imprimatur of our intelligence and national security apparatus.
00:30:03.000It's so crazy, and actually, you point that out in another very, very explosive piece on Revolver.News.
00:30:13.000What did the FBI know, and when did they know it?
00:30:16.000And you write in the piece that, you know, given the FBI's recent intense focus on white supremacist violence, the question inevitably rises of why the FBI was not able to stop the horrific crime in the first place.
00:30:28.000And you go through some of the interactions that the Buffalo shooter had with law enforcement.
00:30:33.000And I've got to say, Darren, as a Florida man, it rings similar to Parkland, where in the wake of Parkland, you had every call for gun control, every call for social media crackdowns.
00:30:47.000But you actually had someone who was a neighbor who saw the murderer preparing for this moment.
00:30:53.000And the FBI totally dropped the baller.
00:30:55.000Are you saying that as we dig into the Buffalo shooting, we may find a circumstance similar to Parkland?
00:31:04.000There's no definitive evidence that says that that's the case, but I think it's a possibility that we have to Responsibly entertained, given the broader context of what we know that the FBI was involved in.
00:31:18.000Look at the Whitmer case, the now totally humiliated Whitmer case of the DOJ, is a great example.
00:31:29.000You had tremendous resources, tremendous energy.
00:31:33.000It seemed like a good percentage of the entire FBI was dedicated to this now Sham entrapment operation, the Whitmer case.
00:31:42.000And by the way, as the great Julie Kelly pointed out recently, one of the informants, the FBI informants in the Whitmer case was encouraging the Mark to write a manifesto.
00:32:01.000And there's a history of doing this, and there are a lot of, believe me, this country has no shortage of mentally unstable people.
00:32:10.000The only question is, is the FBI trying to prevent them from engaging in violence?
00:32:15.000Or is there something darker, more sinister going on in terms of sometimes a crisis can be an opportunity from the standpoint of the national security state?
00:32:28.000And I think those are questions that, unfortunately, the FBI and the security state forces us to ask these difficult questions by their own established track record of conduct.
00:32:45.000We have to also ask a lot of questions about this Durham investigation.
00:32:49.000I'm talking with Dr. Darren Beattie, publisher of Revolver News.
00:32:53.000We've gone over two great pieces on the site, the Biden Ministry of Truth and its participation in a secret NATO-funded cabal to subvert Western democracies.
00:33:03.000That's driving a lot of the discussion today.
00:33:27.000And the DNC that were trying to inject the national security apparatus with lies and then they had willing participants at the DOJ and at the FBI that took this false political dirt, these lies that were curated from Russians, and they had their authorized leaks.
00:33:45.000To the New York Times, to the Washington Post, to hang this cloud of criminality over Donald Trump without evidence.
00:33:52.000And now we have a trial going on that I think is a sham trial.
00:33:56.000And I want you to react to my hypothesis.
00:33:59.000I do not believe that the Durham trial of Michael Zussman is about convicting Michael Zussman at all.
00:34:08.000I think the entire purpose of this trial is to inoculate the FBI and the DOJ against the charge that they were in on it.
00:34:20.000If you believe Durham and his presentation, the argument goes that the FBI was lied to.
00:34:27.000You had these evil Democrats and their lawyers scheming and obfuscating and trying to get this political dirt in.
00:34:35.000Oh my goodness, the FBI was just a victim of this.
00:34:40.000And the reality is the FBI was part of the supply chain of bullshit that ran from Russians and the DNC through the Perkins Law Firm to the FBI DOJ and then out through their distribution system.
00:35:09.000I think you're totally on the mark there.
00:35:12.000I think that this whole Durham thing has been...
00:35:15.000I mean, it's part of the reason why I can't really bring myself to follow it closely, so I'm not really conversant with the details so as to speak on them.
00:35:25.000But part of the reason I've had little motivation to look into these details is that I've always had the sense from the beginning that it was a total sham.
00:35:34.000And in the manner precisely that you describe.
00:35:38.000It's what they call the limited hangout.
00:35:43.000The whole purpose is to provide cover.
00:35:46.000And you can just tell by the fact that it's It's not really such a censored story.
00:35:54.000You get a sense of what types of stories are safe and which stories aren't.
00:35:59.000When Revolver News runs stories on January 6th and you see a certain type of reaction from the regime, that's not the reaction that you get from the regime with this Durham nonsense.
00:36:14.000If the purpose of the prosecution is to inoculate the FBI, well then of course you would have prosecution witnesses that would pepper in things that would So, I don't believe that the goal here is to have Sussman ultimately convicted of anything, really held accountable.
00:36:44.000Here's what I can promise the American people, and make note of this.
00:36:50.000The relationship between the Perkins law firm and the FBI was not an arm's length relationship.
00:36:58.000These entities were working together far more than you know.
00:37:17.000And during the Obama years, during the Eric Holder years, a lot of connections were made with the legal arm of the Democratic Party and the FBI and the Department of Justice.
00:37:27.000And that infrastructure was used to try to smear Trump unfairly with the cloud of criminality.
00:37:34.000So there's going to be a lot more coming on this.
00:37:36.000They're trying like cats in a litter box to cover up you-know-what, and we're going to do everything we can to expose the truth.
00:37:45.000Darren, every once in a while, we've been talking in the program about how the left It sort of does us a favor at times with their most sincere moments.
00:37:55.000And in the House Judiciary Committee, we've been debating the abortion issue.
00:37:58.000The left is doing everything they can through Congress, through their street warriors, through their intimidation apparatus to try to sway the opinion of the court now that the Dobbs decision has apparently leaked.
00:38:13.000Great moment in the House Judiciary Committee, Congressman Dan Bishop questioning one of the witnesses brought in by Democrats to talk about abortion.
00:38:41.000Yeah, when the Democrat witnesses are protecting the abortion rights of men who are pregnant needing abortions, that is when the Republicans have won.
00:38:50.000But I want to ask you a broader question.
00:38:53.000You know, you've got the political matrix right now that is somewhat in flux.
00:39:00.000You have Americans that are being poisoned by fentanyl at an alarming rate.
00:39:04.000You have inflation crushing almost every aspect of American life as Democrats try to find new and novel ways to print money, borrow money from China and send it to Ukraine.
00:39:15.000And yet a lot of these kind of, I would say, culture war issues, you know, whether it's critical race theory, whether it's the snipe hunts for white supremacy, now whether it's this abortion issue, are rising in the, I guess, just in the relevance of the minds of voters. just in the relevance of the minds of voters.
00:39:33.000You know, as we look forward to the agenda, the legislative agenda, what are you hearing from your readers at revolver.news about the things that are really motivating and driving people in?
00:39:44.000Is it the economic matrix or is it the culture war?
00:40:09.000But I don't think this is really to diminish The cultural side either.
00:40:13.000I think people genuinely care about it.
00:40:15.000And there's one side of it that's kind of ridiculous, like, oh, men getting abortions and so forth.
00:40:23.000But as we're seeing from the reporting of people like Chris Ruffo, is that these things have...
00:40:30.000An extremely disturbing impact on America's children as well when these types of things start making their way into preschools and grade schools and things like this.
00:40:41.000I think these are things that really scandalize most Americans and they're taking place on a far more frequent basis than anyone imagined.
00:40:51.000I think economics, that's always front and center.
00:40:57.000You don't really Worry about the culture stuff if you can't afford to pay for gas, if inflation is destroying you, if you can't, you know, feed your baby.
00:41:06.000But I don't think that's really to diminish the cultural side as well.
00:41:12.000You know, it's just such an important factor in people's lives is how they understand who they are as human beings in a society and these things impinge upon people's families in In a very important way, although not quite the same way as economics, but it's arguably just as important, I would say.
00:41:34.000And I think the two are not severable.
00:41:38.000I believe that Americans today feel under siege.
00:41:42.000They feel under siege when they fill up at the gas station, when they go to the grocery store, but also when they send their children to school and their kids come back You know, telling them that they want to change genders or that they feel, you know, like they're oppressors by virtue of the color of their skin or that they're oppressed and that they cannot...
00:42:01.000I mean, some of the most compelling stuff on the culture war have come from black families that say, don't go tell my son or daughter that they can't be successful in today's America.
00:42:10.000We want to believe that everyone can be successful under the spirit of Dr. King, not the kind of Ibram Kendi, John O'Callaghan, That we are confined to the circumstances of our race and of our kind.
00:42:25.000So I think that to separate these things, I think, misses the mark.
00:42:29.000I think most American families really do feel like this government is Failed them on one hand and in many ways is pursuing them on the other.
00:42:37.000And if you think that they'll never come after you as a domestic extremist, if you think that your access to the digital world, the capital markets, the financial world is safe, then you got another thing coming because these people are very serious and want to congratulate Dr. Darren Beattie on being really one of the focal points of the opposition To this disinformation board,
00:43:02.000to this ministry of truth, he lit the fire and I think a lot of people all over the country just said, we're not going to take it anymore.
00:43:09.000And it shows that we have a say in this.
00:43:12.000We have agency and when we activate, we're the most powerful political force that exists on the planet Earth.
