The Democratic Party is fully enthralled with the right wing of the party, and the people who are staffing up the party are the kinds of people that are going to make the most money out of it. They're the ones who support the status quo through direct contributions, through dark money, and through everything else.

00:00:00.000 Zoram Amdani and Tucker Carlson are now indistinguishable.
00:00:03.000 I suppose it's not altogether shocking, considering that Tucker was a registered Democrat for some 15 years or so.
00:00:08.000 Also, we get to the Democrats' worst of the worst continuing to cover for Graham Plattner, even to the mockery of MSNOW.
00:00:16.000 What do you say to those who are concerned that the language you used is dangerous?
00:00:22.000 I want to be very clear.
00:00:23.000 We're talking about a status quo where children are being killed on a daily basis.
00:00:30.000 More than a thousand Palestinians have been killed by the Israeli military since the so called ceasefire.
00:00:36.000 Even an Al Jazeera journalist, Ahmed Wishah, was killed this past Saturday by an Israeli strike.
00:00:42.000 And when I am speaking about AIPAC, I'm speaking about an organization that has been supportive of the status quo, that has fought any attempt to actually deliver safety to people, not just in Palestine, but frankly, through much of the region.
00:00:59.000 And it is a status quo for immorality.
00:01:01.000 It is one that I will not accept.
00:01:03.000 And when it comes to The way in which they defend the status quo, oftentimes they defend it through direct contributions, as we are seeing right now in New York 13.
00:01:14.000 Oftentimes they also support the status quo through dark money.
00:01:19.000 All dark money is, by the way, is an actual 501c4 donating money.
00:01:24.000 That's all it is.
00:01:25.000 And by the way, he is involved in a number of dark money organizations himself.
00:01:29.000 Zar Mamzani, the supposed journalist that he is mentioning there, a person named Ahmed Wisha, was a sniper for Hamas.
00:01:34.000 Of course. 0.90
00:01:35.000 Because it turns out that Zarnamdani is perfectly fine with terrorism. 0.98
00:01:37.000 I mean, this is a video of the journalist for Al Jazeera who was killed. 0.97
00:01:42.000 Check this out.
00:01:46.000 Epic levels of journalism.
00:01:48.000 He's firing a rifle in the air, by the way, for those who don't understand. 0.65
00:01:54.000 Literally wearing like a Hamas outfit and walking backwards while firing into the air. 0.94
00:02:00.000 As one would, as a journalist would. 0.82
00:02:03.000 I mean, there he is with a sniper rifle.
00:02:05.000 So much journalisming.
00:02:07.000 Solid stuff.
00:02:08.000 But this is the Democratic Party.
00:02:09.000 The Democratic Party is now, in large part, in total solidarity with terrorism, which, again, I mean, I can see why there are people who want to horseshoe around and meet them there.
00:02:20.000 In New York City, which is going to be quite unsafe for anyone with actual any connection to Judaism for a long time to come because of Zorhan Mamdani and his friends, a New York City coffee shop has now decided that it is going to ban Representative Dan Goldman. 0.55
00:02:35.000 Dan Goldman is a Democrat. 0.56
00:02:37.000 For some reason, they're saying he's wildly pro Israel.
00:02:39.000 He absolutely is not.
00:02:41.000 But apparently, even just not being pro terrorist is too much.
00:02:45.000 So they banned him.
00:02:47.000 Now, the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division announced in a statement on Monday that it launched a probe into this coffee shop called Poetica and will bring an enforcement action if warranted.
00:02:57.000 So it's hilarious because the chain has an avowed ethos of treating people with unconditional dignity.
00:03:06.000 And it turns out the unconditional dignity ends precisely where the not supporting terrorism ends.
00:03:11.000 Begins.
00:03:12.000 Here's the thing you don't need to suffer from health problems.
00:03:15.000 You don't.
00:03:16.000 But if you spend five minutes online looking for nutrition advice, you will find approximately 5 million different opinions.
00:03:20.000 Eat this, don't eat that.
00:03:21.000 More protein, less protein, cut the carbs, add the carbs.
00:03:24.000 At a certain point, most people aren't suffering from lack of information.
00:03:27.000 You're just suffering from lack of time because the reality is that even when you know what you should be doing, life gets pretty busy.
00:03:32.000 That's one of the reasons I like Balance of Nature.
00:03:34.000 They make it easier to get more of the fruits, more of the veggies, and more of the fiber.
00:03:44.000 And whole food ingredients that many of us could use more of in our daily routines.
00:03:47.000 Their whole health system is made from real fruits, veggies, spices, fiber.
00:03:51.000 It's become a regular part of my routine.
00:03:53.000 It's also become pretty popular around those Daily Wire offices.
00:03:55.000 So they also, by the way, have a bunch of stuff like freeze dried snacks, convenient, easy to take anywhere.
00:03:59.000 The kids love them, make the snack time a lot simpler.
00:04:01.000 So, if you've heard me talk about Balance of Nature before, but you haven't checked out all that stuff yet, now would be the moment.

00:04:16.000 The Democratic Party is fully enthralled to the Zoramam Dhani wing of the party, the Graham Platner wing of the party.
00:04:25.000 Fascinating piece about the kinds of people who are staffing up the Democratic Party at this point in the Wall Street Journal about a person named Dan Moroff.
00:04:33.000 A progressive up and comer and Graham Plattner's top strategist.
00:04:36.000 Now, you remember Graham Plattner?
00:04:37.000 He's the.
00:04:38.000 He's running for Senate in Maine, you know, and you know, you got that guy.
00:04:43.000 You remember him.
00:04:44.000 Well, in any case, Nazi tattoo guy, for those who don't recall.
00:04:48.000 According to Moraff, Moraff said that criticism of his management was coming from party insiders to, quote, smear the people resisting their control over a party in dire need of change.
00:04:58.000 It's a bunch of weirdos who are running the Democratic Party at this point.
00:05:02.000 Here's one element of the weirdness.
00:05:03.000 You ready?
00:05:04.000 Moreff's fiance, Leanne Fan, according to those who have worked with the couple, at times tries to smooth over tensions between Moreff and staff.
00:05:11.000 Her engagement ring opens up to a tiny comb that she has used to brush Moreff's beard.
00:05:16.000 Is that on sale?
00:05:22.000 At like Michael's or what?
00:05:23.000 Like, what are we talking about?
00:05:24.000 Why does your ring have a beard comb in it?
00:05:27.000 And so, how do, like, is it the world's tiniest comb?
00:05:30.000 What are we talking about?
00:05:33.000 But I guess not that strange for a guy who is backing a candidate.
00:05:33.000 That's very strange.
00:05:37.000 Who apparently told a girlfriend that he wanted to rape home invaders, but not in a gay way? 0.97
00:05:44.000 Graham Plattner, by the way, has a lot of weird words with regard to his sexual fantasies in history. 0.94
00:05:49.000 He says that he used to go to Planned Parenthood to get tested for STDs, as one would as a good, upstanding citizen.
00:05:56.000 Part of that, as many of you know, is that I firmly believe in a universal health care system.
00:06:01.000 I believe in it because I have, in many ways, received it with my VA benefits.
00:06:06.000 But I will also say that many of my female friends and my wife.
00:06:10.000 Throughout their lives, have received some form of that same kind of support from Planned Parenthood.
00:06:16.000 I have friends who, even today, get primary care through Planned Parenthood.
00:06:20.000 I myself, at a younger age, received pre what's the word?
00:06:27.000 I get STI checks at the Portland Planned Parenthood.
00:06:33.000 And it's not an embarrassing thing, it's a smart thing to do, especially when you're younger. 1.00
00:06:38.000 Like, it's funny because he's a total piece of trash. 0.99
00:06:40.000 I used to go to Planned Parenthood to make sure I didn't have herpes. 1.00
00:06:43.000 From banging Thai ladyboys. 1.00
00:06:48.000 Graham Platner, this is who you're running.
00:06:50.000 Even MS Now is laughing at the campaign strategist for Platner, saying that he talks about his past more than any other candidate. 0.85
00:06:57.000 Morris Katz is another one of these absolute ridiculous dorks working on behalf of the far left Democratic Party, talking about how Graham Platner talks about his past incessantly.
00:07:12.000 There's a fundamental issue here of trust and Mainers now know Graham Platner and they trust Graham Platner. 0.94
00:07:18.000 And Susan Collins, I think, with that vote to put Brett Kavanaugh on the Supreme Court, with that vote to end Roe as the law of the land, has broken that trust in a way that cannot be rebuilt.
00:07:25.000 It hasn't been negated by all of the allegations against Platner, which there may be more coming.
00:07:33.000 Can you say that there are not going to be more women coming forward with similar unflattering allegations against Graham Platner?
00:07:42.000 What I can say is that Graham Platner has addressed his past.
00:07:46.000 Repeatedly, more than I've ever seen any candidate have to talk about their past.
00:07:50.000 That might be because he has a lot of problems, of course.
00:07:50.000 And he's been honest.
00:07:55.000 They're literally laughing at him.
00:07:56.000 And also, that's a no.
00:07:57.000 There will definitely be more women coming out to talk about Graham Platner. 0.99
00:08:00.000 But the good news is that he has the Islamists on his side. 0.99
00:08:02.000 Here's Linda Sarsour, most famous for being a radical Islamist who tried to ban Jews from the women's march, essentially. 0.96
00:08:10.000 Here she was praising Graham Platner.
00:08:12.000 Again, nothing changes in history.
00:08:15.000 History is just a series of repeats. 0.78
00:08:16.000 And it turns out that the people with Nazi tattoos and the radical Islamists, they're kind of an alliance. 0.83
00:08:23.000 I've obviously followed all the controversies with him. 0.70
00:08:26.000 He has had multiple controversies, as you know, including most recently with women who have come forward around what they Call unsettling behavior.
00:08:33.000 I think for me, Graham is worth the chance of that skepticism.
00:08:37.000 Absolutely.
00:08:38.000 So that's kind of where I'm at with this.
00:08:40.000 I think that there is something about him.
00:08:43.000 I've been in personal space with him.
00:08:44.000 There's something a bit authentic about him from my perspective.
00:08:47.000 I feel like I'm from Brooklyn.
00:08:48.000 I feel like I could feel it.
00:08:50.000 I could see kind of if somebody's like, you know, BSing me.
00:08:53.000 I feel like he's very genuine with his kind of apologies.
00:08:57.000 I do agree that it would mean a lot for him to come out and be like, next week.
00:09:02.000 I already won the nomination.
00:09:04.000 I'm about to go remove this tattoo.
00:09:04.000 Now I got some time.
00:09:07.000 I agree with you on that one.
00:09:11.000 Well, the Democrats are not going to moderate in any way.
00:09:14.000 What an amazing video you just watched.
00:09:16.000 Wasn't that amazing?
