00:01:59.000Democracy involves the consent of the governed.
00:02:03.000Democracy allows people to use the pressure release valve when things get a little bit hot, a little bit spicy, that they can pull the lever and say, I don't like what's going on, or I do like what's going on.
00:02:20.000One of the reasons why I make the distinction between a democracy and a constitutional republic is that far too often in modern times, what they call democracy is really a kleptocratic oligarchy that disguises itself as a democracy.
00:02:36.000Pure democracy is something that we will never get close to.
00:02:40.000Now, pure democracy sometimes is, hey, every single person is going to vote on every single measure and every single bill.
00:02:46.000So we have a representative form of government and we have a constitution that our government is supposed to follow.
00:02:52.000First Amendment, your right to free speech given to you by God.
00:02:55.000Second Amendment, your right to bear arms.
00:02:57.000Third Amendment, can't put soldiers in your home.
00:02:59.000Fourth Amendment, they can't spy on you.
00:03:01.000Fifth Amendment, Sixth Amendment, Seventh Amendment, all dealing with due process, speedy and quick trial, the right against self-incrimination.
00:03:10.000And finally, of course, the Ninth Amendment, which is basically all of the things not mentioned here, does not necessarily mean that they're not rights or that you can't discount them as rights.
00:03:18.00010th Amendment, all things that are not specifically mentioned are left to the states and to the people.
00:03:23.000The Bill of Rights was built on the tradition of the Virginia Declaration of Rights, written in 1776 by George Mason.
00:03:31.000That was the first kind of, let's say, American colony attempt to write down what then inspired the founding fathers as the addendum in 1791 after the ratification of the U.S. Constitution in 1787 to compose the Constitution plus the Bill of Rights.
00:03:54.000One of the reasons that the media wants to make it seem as if that our democracy is under attack is that a lot of people think highly of the idea of voting.
00:04:05.000We have not had a democracy for quite some time in this country.
00:04:08.000We really have never been one, but we are closer towards the ruling of the few than the ruling of the many.
00:04:15.000A majority of Americans want a border.
00:04:33.000But the one component that would at least fit into this idea of democracy would be you get to vote for who you want to vote for.
00:04:46.000It would be very hard to have any form or fashion of a democracy or representative government or consent of the governed if you are not able to either in a primary or a general election vote for the candidate of your choosing, especially if that candidate is leading in the polls and especially, especially if that candidate is a former president.
00:05:12.000The party and the movement of democracy that is lecturing us about our democracy, they were the ones that did everything they possibly could to make sure that the Patriots of Colorado, the Patriots of Maine, the Patriots of Illinois, you're not allowed to vote for Donald Trump.
00:05:34.000And remarkably, the Colorado Supreme Court agreed.
00:05:42.000A traffic court judge in Illinois agreed.
00:05:46.000And all of this bubbled up to the U.S. Supreme Court.
00:05:49.000Now, a lot of this was workshopped by the hyper-aggressive partisans of Andrew Weissman, the wargamers of Mark Elias, the people that they don't want to leave it up to chance.
00:06:04.000They don't want to have to go into this November and even have a 1% chance that President Trump might return.
00:06:12.000And it's important to remember, they thought that when Donald Trump left office on January 20th, 2021, he skipped the inauguration.
00:06:23.000He got on the plane and flew down to Mar-a-Lago.
00:06:26.000They thought they had him dead to rights.
00:07:36.000Donald Trump was still the leader of the Republican Party.
00:07:41.000And he's only consolidated and built upon that support for quite since that since that period of time, from East Palestine to going into Dairy Queens to McDonald's to winning the Iowa caucus to winning the New Hampshire primary to winning the Nevada caucus to winning the South Carolina primary.
00:07:58.000And they thought that they could launch these salvos to prevent Donald Trump from ever becoming a general election candidate again.
00:08:08.000Because if there's even a chance, these neurotic freaks on the left can't handle that.
00:08:16.000Well, today, the United States Supreme Court issued a humbling opinion for these lawfare activists.
00:08:24.000They're going to try another attack vector.
00:08:26.000Now, we expected them to lose on this, but we did not expect them to get completely humiliated.
00:08:33.000And today, Andrew Weissman, Keith Olberman, and the law-fair practitioners of cable news were humiliated.
00:08:43.000The Supreme Court has delivered its judgment in Trump v. Anderson, the case resolving whether the Colorado Supreme Court can remove Donald Trump for being an insurrectionist.
00:08:53.000In a unanimous 9-0 ruling, they ruled that Trump must remain on the ballot.
00:08:58.000Now, if you dig further into the details, it's actually a bit more complicated.
00:09:02.000While all the judges agree that Colorado went too far, just five justices, the five men, said explicitly that only Congress can enforce the insurrection clause of the 14th Amendment, as opposed to the federal judges of the Department of Justice acting on their own at the federal level.
00:09:18.000In other words, the only way to remove a presidential candidate from the ballot as an insurrectionist is for Congress to pass a law saying explicitly what causes a person to be labeled as an ineligible insurrectionist.
00:09:30.000The three liberal women justices said the court went too far in saying this.
00:09:34.000Amy Coney Barrett said that she wasn't going to join either side, just thought the court should just, quote, turn down the national temperature, whatever that means.
00:09:41.000Basically, Amy Coney Barrett was trying to be the suburban mom voter.
00:09:50.000Let's turn down the national temperature.
00:09:51.000Yeah, Amy Coney Barrett, you're living in the wrong time because there's going to be a lot spicier decisions coming up on your docket soon.
00:09:57.000So you better buckle up and get ready to make some tough decisions.
00:10:01.000For now, we can ignore any disagreements.
00:10:13.000Even very normal people are going to get the story that, quote, Democrats tried to take out Trump, and the entire Supreme Court, including the liberals, said this stunt was illegal.
00:10:23.000Remember what we say: Trump is anti-fragile.
00:10:26.000The desperate, flailing attempts to take him down are only making him stronger.
00:10:37.000If you're looking for a reliable and clear way to have voice and text communication to any number from anywhere in the world, you need a satellite phone, and no one does it better than the satellite phone store.
00:10:54.000No one can listen in on your phone calls.
00:10:56.000And the most secure way to communicate is from satellite phone to satellite phone.
00:11:00.000Even the U.S. military uses satellite phones, and you'll never get an advertisement from any other company because everything you do with the satellite phone will be 100% private.
00:11:09.000In America this year, only 5% of the island in Maui burned, but 95% of the island lost its power and cell service.
00:11:14.000Even the 911 emergency service was down because they had no access to satellite communication backup.

00:11:38.000In a democracy, it's simply the majority rules.
00:11:42.000And what they say is a democracy, again, is actually an oligarchy.
00:11:46.000In a constitutional republic, we are governed by an established set of laws.
00:11:51.000In a republic, you have protection of individual rights, protection of property rights.
00:12:43.000A rare moment of unanimity on a usually divided court.
00:12:47.000All nine justices of the Supreme Court agree that states cannot kick candidates off the ballot under the 14th Amendment.
00:12:55.000And what the Supreme Court said is that states can't enforce that, that it requires Congress to pass a law to outline how that clause should be enforced, concluding very simply that responsibility for enforcing that part of the Constitution rests with Congress and not with the states.
00:13:17.000You guys deserve a lot of credit here.
00:13:18.000The fact that the conservative movement was talking about removing Joe Biden from the ballot, that message was received.
00:13:26.000They did not want to start a precedent where all of a sudden states could remove candidates running for federal office because that's where this was going next.
00:13:34.000If the Supreme Court didn't do this, Texas, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, it just would have been a question of who was removed from more ballots.
00:13:43.000And so even our talk about removing Joe Biden, probably they started to play this out in the nine-person internal meeting.
00:13:50.000Clarence Thomas, Katangi Brown Jackson.
00:13:53.000The argument was probably made, listen, if we don't go 9-0 on this, this will set an ugly precedent for years to come that states can just pick off any candidates that they don't like under whatever sort of guidelines, and that should be solely vested in Congress.
00:14:17.000Let's play cut three, Jonathan Turley, play cut three.
00:14:22.000There aren't any real dissents, so it does look like it is unanimous, at least on the result.
00:14:28.000What they have a disagreement on is whether the court had to go as far as it did.
00:14:34.000Now, the most practical result of this is that the voters will be able to vote for the candidate that they prefer.
00:14:42.000This was a critical moment for this court in history.
00:15:05.000By the way, there's all sorts of whispers about decertification if Trump were to win.
00:15:13.000We need to make sure we win the House to prevent Democrats from not certifying a Trump victory.
00:15:17.000They're going to do the exact same stuff that some people were thinking about doing on January 6th, 2021, legally sending it back to the states.
00:15:32.000By the way, we have to war game this out.
00:15:34.000Do you think for a second that they're just going to certify a Trump victory, especially if Trump wins a plurality, not a majority with all these different candidates?
00:16:28.000It puts the Twitter legal community on defense.
00:16:34.000And just because you don't like somebody doesn't mean you could prevent Republican primary voters from voting for them in a primary.
00:16:44.000Okay, Kirk fans, I need you to stop and pay attention to this.
00:16:48.000If you deal with exhaustion, brain fog, mood swings, or food cravings, if you're constantly getting sick or simply lack the zeal you used to have in life, then I have some news for you.
00:16:57.000While back, I found a liquid supplement called Strong Cell, and it changed my health in a very profound way.

00:17:33.000Rebecca says, I absolutely love Strong Cell.
00:17:36.000At first, I didn't think it would make much of a difference for my chronic fatigue, depression, and anxiety, but I thought I'd give it a chance.
00:17:41.000I've tried to find depression meds for 10 years, and since you Strong Cell, I'm feeling better than I ever have on depression medication.

00:18:39.000Let me read you a tweet here from Jenna Griswold.
00:18:42.000Quote, I am disappointed in the U.S. Supreme Court's decision stripping states of the authority to enforce section three of the 14th Amendment for federal candidates.
00:18:51.000Colorado should be able to bar oath-breaking insurrections from our ballot.
00:18:56.000Keith Oberman has said, the Supreme Court has betrayed democracy.
00:19:01.000Its members, including Jackson, Kagan, Sodomayor, have proved themselves inept at reading comprehension.
00:19:08.000And collectively, the court has shown itself to be corrupt and illegitimate.
00:19:42.000You know, look, unfortunately for America, the court isn't necessarily wrong that this is the way the framers wanted it to be.
00:19:51.000They wanted Congress, the people who are closest to their constituents, to be able to make the rules of the laws.
00:20:00.000That doesn't change the fact that because of gerrymandering in the House and all kinds of other issues, they're not doing their job on a lot of these big issues.
00:20:09.000Unfortunately for America, the court isn't necessarily wrong.
00:20:13.000This goes down to the core promise of why we have a Constitution.
00:20:18.000The Constitution spreads power over space and time.
00:20:23.000It does not consolidate it where the Colorado Supreme Court allows the millions of people of Colorado or prevents them from letting their voice be heard.
00:20:36.000Mike, when was the last time we had a 9-0 decision on a highly consequential, highly watched Supreme Court case, Mike Davis?
00:20:44.000Well, I'd say it may be the last time that Jack Smith got unanimously reversed by the Supreme Court when he brought bogus corruption charges against a likely 2016 presidential or vice presidential contender, former Virginia Governor Bob McDonald.
00:21:01.000The Supreme Court reversed the decision.
00:21:04.000It would have been nine to nothing, but Justice Calia passed away, but it was too late for McDonald.
00:21:09.000Jack Smith destroyed his political career and destroyed his life.
00:21:13.000And that's the same playbook that Biden and Garland and Jack Smith are running this time.
00:21:18.000They brought back Jack Smith, who was banished to The Hague.
00:21:22.000They brought him back to bring these bogus charges against President Trump for January 6th and for documents he's allowed to have under the Presidential Records Act.
00:21:30.000This is part of the Democrats' lawfare and election interference, two bogus impeachments, four bogus indictments for non-crimes, illegal, unconstitutional gag orders.
00:21:39.000They're trying to destroy Trump's businesses for non-fraud.
00:21:43.000They're trying to take $100 million away from Trump for Gene Carroll's nonsense.
00:21:49.000That all backfired, as we predicted at the Article III project over the last 20 months.
00:21:54.000And so they threw their legal hail married.
00:21:56.000They just tried to take Trump off the ballot because Democrats fear American voters.
00:22:03.000And they just got body slammed nine to nothing by the Supreme Court.
00:22:08.000So can you just go through some of the dynamics of what it requires to convince all nine justices?
00:22:15.000In fact, stay right there, Mike Davis.
00:23:01.000They brought our support up very strong in Colorado because people thought people in Colorado thought that was a terrible thing that they did.
00:23:10.000And while we're on the subject, and another thing that will be coming up very soon will be immunity for a president.
00:23:16.000And not immunity for me, but for any president.
00:23:19.000If a president doesn't have full immunity, you really don't have a president because nobody that is serving in that office will have the courage to make, in many cases, what would be the right decision, or it could be the wrong decision.
00:23:34.000It could be, in some cases, the wrong decision, but they have to make decisions and they have to make them free of all terror that can be rained upon them when they leave office or even before they leave office.
00:24:23.000And sometimes you have to make those, they were tough decisions.
00:24:25.000Sometimes you have to make decisions like that.
00:24:28.000When you make a decision, you don't want to have your opposing party or opponent or even somebody that just thinks you're wrong bring a criminal suit against you or any kind of a suit when you leave office.
00:24:39.000I have that right now at a level that nobody's ever seen before.
00:24:42.000I have rogue prosecutors and I have rogue judges.
00:24:46.000I have judges that are out of control.
00:24:49.000And it's a very unfair thing for me, but I'm serving perhaps as a sample to others of what should not be happening.
00:24:58.000When you make good decisions, and in my case, the economy was great.
00:25:45.000In that case, it worked out very well.
00:25:46.000There will be some things that perhaps don't work out so well, but I don't want to be prosecuted because I decided to do something that is very much for the good of the country and actually for the good of the world.
00:26:00.000The president shouldn't have that on his mind, and he has to have a free and clear mind when he makes very big decisions, or it's going to be nothing more than a ceremonial post.
00:26:12.000You'll be president, it'll be a wonderful thing, and you won't do anything because you don't want to be hit by your opponent or hit by somebody else.
00:26:19.000Because who wants to leave office and go through what I've gone through?
00:26:23.000I'm being prosecuted by Biden, my opponent.
00:26:27.000Because every one of these things, whether it's Fannie Willis or Bragg, these are local and state, but they're in total coordination with the White House.
00:26:42.000In the case of the DA's office, they put one of the top people, maybe the second person, in the Manhattan DA's office to get Trump.
00:26:53.000They had a Hillary Clinton lawyer leave the law firm, very prestigious big law firm, leave the law firm to go into the DA's office to get Trump, Pomerance.
00:27:07.000So he goes in to become a prosecutor, worked for the Democrat Party and Hillary Clinton, goes in to prosecute Donald Trump at a local level in total coordination with the Department of Justice, meaning Biden.
00:27:20.000And then you have the Fannie Willis, or as she would say, Fonnie, Fonnie, F-A-N-I, but Fonnie.
00:27:27.000And she hired somebody, knew the person long before this horrible prosecution took place.
00:27:34.000And she went out and she paid him an unbelievable amount of money, more money than he ever had dreamt possible, much more money than other people that do that for a living.
00:27:46.000He never did it at all, had no experience in it at all.
00:29:01.000From Angel Studios in Alejandro, Monteverde, award-winning director of Sound of Freedom, comes the powerful true story of Francesca Cabrini, an Italian immigrant who arrives in New York City in 1889 and is greeted by disease, crime, and impoverished children.
00:29:15.000Cabrini is not merely a movie, it is a tribute to the spirit of women everywhere.
00:29:19.000It tells the story of a trailblazer, a visionary whose tireless dedication to serving others transcends boundaries and inspire generations.
00:29:26.000On this International Woman's Day, we can honor Cabrini's enduring legacy by celebrating the countless contributions of women throughout history.
00:29:34.000Mark your calendars for March 8th and join me in theaters to experience the extraordinary journey of Mother Cabrini, a celebration of courage, compassion, and the triumph of the human spirit.
00:29:46.000Keep going with President Trump, please.
00:29:59.000The Army Corps of Engineers did it with me, and we did a great job.
00:30:04.000And we had the safest border we've ever had, and now we have the most unsafe border anywhere in the world at any time.
00:30:10.000There's never been a border like this at any country, anywhere in the world.
00:30:13.000They would have fought with sticks and stones to stop the horrible situation that's occurring.
00:30:21.000Our people can't stand it, and the people coming in really can't stand it because they're dying.
00:30:27.000Many are dying on the trip up, and they're dying in the country.
00:30:30.000And also, many of the people are criminals, and they're doing tremendous harm.
00:31:01.000Everybody now is together, and they can go after me as a politician.
00:31:06.000They can go after me with votes, but they're not going to go after me with that kind of lawsuit that takes somebody out of a race who's leading in this case, but even if the person wasn't leading.
00:31:19.000And I want to thank you all for being here.
00:31:24.000The poll numbers are massive for you going into Super Tuesday.
00:31:27.000We found a lot of people who are agnostic to politics in general see these legal cases against you.
00:31:34.000They see what how life was back under a Trump administration.
00:31:38.000Do you think that's the key to pull some of these independent voters into this next election, seeing that the new cases are unfair, they have no merit, and also the poll numbers their life before Trump?
00:31:48.000It's such an interesting question because historically a thing like what I've been going through would have hurt a political party or a political candidate terrifically.
00:34:46.000I hope that the justices, because they'll be working on some other cases, but one in particular, presidents have to be given total immunity.
00:34:56.000They have to be allowed to do their job.
00:34:58.000If they're not allowed to do their job, it's not what the founders wanted, but perhaps even more importantly, it will be terrible for our country.
