00:01:08.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:02:56.000But Donald Trump is facing 600 years in federal prison, four different indictments.
00:03:01.000And the data is showing that not only have the indictments helped him in the primary, but the indictments very well might be helping him in the general election.
00:03:13.000I get in debates all the time with members of the American ruling class when I visit Aspen or Vegas or whatever.
00:03:20.000Who don't like Trump and they say Donald Trump cannot win the general election.
00:03:23.000You have to get that out of your head.
00:03:41.000In fact, the media is accidentally stumbling into this data, and that is exactly why the Atlantic article is out.
00:03:50.000The party of democracy, which again is really the party of oligarchy, is saying that we must prevent Donald Trump from ever coming on the ballot.
00:04:02.000I'm going to prove to you exactly what they mean because they are now saying this out loud.
00:04:05.000They're trying to move the Overton window.
00:04:08.000And some of the, boy, I was going to use a term I shouldn't use.
00:04:13.000Let's just say moderates in the Republican circle, like David French, who's not even a Republican, he's a regime water carrier for the neoliberal agenda.
00:04:23.000They're saying, oh, this is actually a really good idea.
00:04:25.000If Donald Trump is so unpopular, then beat him at the ballot box.
00:04:29.000If Donald Trump is so terrible, then use your sacred democracy to reject him.
00:05:23.000Well, I mixed up the save and send buttons.
00:05:25.000Like they're not sending their best to Fulton County.
00:05:30.000So, the public opinion of these indictments is only going to shift further.
00:05:34.000And I'm starting to see this bubble up in the grassroots.
00:05:38.000I'm starting to see this bubble up in the non political circles, where all of a sudden the reverence for the Constitution is now taking a higher plane than any sort of allegiance or support of Donald Trump.
00:05:54.000Where people, and this is a very good sign, you want to have a white pill moment, you want to have like an optimist twist.
00:06:01.000I'm starting to see rumblings of people that hate Donald Trump, but they say, I love the Constitution more than I hate Donald Trump.
00:06:11.000All you need is a sliver of independence to believe that, and this whole ballgame ends, and it ends quickly.
00:06:18.000That would be the tipping point, everybody, is if you can get enough people that you don't even convince them that Donald Trump is great.
00:06:25.000You can actually accept the premise, but then you say, is there something that actually supersedes the hate?
00:06:36.000Is there something that supersedes your distaste for him?
00:07:11.000It's going to come down to the technical side, but they thought they would have like a 10 point delta between Trump and Biden at this point.
00:07:19.000And CNN is growing awfully nervous, worried.
00:07:31.000That's well within the margin of error.
00:07:33.000But take away one thing from this and one thing only if you take away only one thing.
00:07:37.000And that is, I think there are a lot of Democrats who simply can't believe that Donald Trump can be elected president again.
00:07:43.000The polling indicates that Trump is in fact in a stronger position at this point than he was during the entire 2020 campaign, according to the national polls.
00:07:52.000If we had state level polling, I wouldn't even be surprised if Trump were ahead in the swing states that are most important, Jim.
00:08:01.000Some polls said that Carrie Lake was up 10 points, and she probably was.
00:08:05.000It's just they did the boring stuff way better than us.
00:08:08.000So if we do our job to ballot chase, voter reg, secure our elections, then all of a sudden this polling is going to look very much to what ends up happening.
00:08:18.000We engage in voting month, all that good stuff, right?
00:08:20.000Precinct by precinct, grassroots muscle.
00:08:23.000That's going to be, I am going to be a broken record on this.
00:08:26.000Unlike all these other shows, oh, wow, look at these polls.
00:09:31.000I like Dairy Queen Donald Trump more than 15 days to slow the spread, Donald Trump.
00:09:37.000And the regime, which says our democracy when they're really saying our oligarchy, they're starting to look around and they're saying, what else do we have?
00:10:35.000Don't miss the most inspirational movie of the summer, Briarcliff Entertainment's The Hill, starring Dennis Quaid, in theaters this Friday.
00:10:42.000The incredible true life story of professional baseball player Ricky Hill.
00:10:46.000Growing up poor in a small Texas town, young Ricky discovers his extraordinary ability for hitting a baseball.
00:10:51.000But with leg braces and a degenerative spinal disease, the major leagues were just a dream that could never be.
00:10:59.000Defying his father's wish to follow in his footsteps to become a pastor, Ricky tries out for a major league scout.
00:11:06.000Pushing hard to overcome his disability, he goes on to become a baseball phenomenon.
00:11:11.000From the writer of Rudy and Hoosiers and the writer of The Game Stands Tall, an inspirational story about family faith and a baseball miracle.
00:12:21.000You had the regime, you had basically a coup d'etat, mail in ballot, Zuckerberg.
00:12:27.000It was a cultural revolution of a regime that basically was taking over itself from within.
00:12:32.000So, this is a fact, 100% fact, that the bad guys, the oligarchs, who say they're for democracy, are super worried about what would happen if Donald Trump gets on the ballot.
00:12:47.000Atlantic.com, financed by Loreen Powell Jobs, who is the widow of Steve Jobs and who is one of the more sinister people in American politics.
00:12:59.000She funds piles of trash to the tune of billions of dollars.
00:13:05.000Loreen Powell Jobs is very similar to Mackenzie Bezos, where they feel that their role in life is to destroy Western society with the billions of dollars they did not earn.
00:13:15.000Mackenzie Bezos didn't earn that money.
00:13:17.000Loreen Powell Jobs didn't earn that money, but boy, they want to spend it.
00:13:20.000It's interesting how unearned money is so easily spent on really bad ideas.
00:13:29.000So here's what it says on the Atlantic The Constitution prohibits Trump from ever being president again by Michael Luddig and Lawrence Tribe.
00:13:39.000Now, Lawrence Tribe is a crazy person, but he's actually well respected on the left, which is telling.
00:13:45.000As students of the United States Constitution for many decades, one of a U.S. Court of Appeals judge, the other as a professor of constitutional law, And both as constitutional advocates, scholars, and practitioners, we long ago came to the conclusion that the 14th Amendment, the amendment ratified in 1868 that represents our nation's second founding, a new birth of freedom, contains within a protection against the dissolution of the Republic by a treasonous president.
00:14:32.000Abolishing slavery and respecting the dignity of all people.
00:14:35.000But they float the 14th Amendment for everything for removal of debts.
00:14:43.000Remember when they said, oh, the debt ceiling can be raised because of the 14th Amendment, preventing Donald Trump from becoming president, birthright citizenship?
00:15:12.000Again, morally necessary with too many opaque provisions and vocabulary that is now harming us in 2023.
00:15:23.000They believe the 14th Amendment nullifies the rest of the Constitution.
00:15:26.000As long as the government can be used to attack white people or now to attack insurrectionists, that's why language matters.
00:15:33.000Okay, so we're gonna pick apart this entire article, this whole thing, but I wanna segue with this quote from the Unabomber, evil guy, but he understood the left very, very well, and he was obviously really smart.
00:15:46.000Quote Words like self confidence, self reliance, initiative, enterprise, optimism play little role in the liberal and leftist vocabulary.
00:15:53.000The leftist is anti individualistic, pro collectivist.
00:15:56.000He wants society to solve everyone's problems for them, satisfy everyone's needs for them, take care of them.
00:16:02.000The liberal is not the sort of person who has an inner sense of confidence in his ability to solve his own problems.
00:18:25.000Okay, so for the past three years, people have mostly understood that using Section 3 on Donald Trump would at least require a criminal conviction, aka taking him off the ballot.
00:18:38.000There's a new article, as we've been leading up to this, that is really making the rounds.
00:18:42.000This is not some sort of just weird blog or just some sort of strange tweet.
00:18:47.000I want to reemphasize this was published on the platform owned by Loreen Powell Jobs, one of the top five most important mega donors.
00:19:02.000This is 100% either approved by, read by, or at least atmospherically aware by Loreen Powell Jobs and her team at the Emerson Collective.
00:19:17.000This is a trial balloon, but it's also a chance to move the Overton window.
00:19:23.000They are saying that conviction does not matter, a conviction of a crime.
00:19:29.000This law review article claims that Section 3 is a self executing, operating, and as an immediate disqualification from office.
00:19:41.000Without the need for additional action from Congress, it can and should be enforced by every official, state or federal, who judges qualifications.
00:19:55.000They're saying that Adrian Fontes can say that Donald Trump is not allowed on the ballot in Arizona.
00:20:02.000They can say the Secretary of State of Wisconsin is not going to allow Donald Trump on the ballot there.
00:20:08.000This is their backup plan for 2024 if the trials do not work.
00:20:14.000It is so unbelievably radical that they had to write an op ed in The Atlantic to try to move the Overton window on this, to try to get the activist base who have been calling for indictments of Donald Trump since the moment he announced for the presidency for eight years.
00:20:32.000When they, this is, this is, when you study the left, you understand that when something goes from in the shadows to into the light, it's an intentional movement.
00:20:44.000They're putting this into the public domain so they could get their base all fired up about it to then be pushing it somewhat organically when in reality it's not organic.
00:21:10.000Doesn't matter what the Constitution says.
00:21:12.000They say the Constitution prohibits it.
00:21:14.000They say conclude that Section 3 requires no legislation, no criminal conviction or other judicial action in order to effectuate its command.
00:21:52.000You're pushing for local secretaries of state to not let Donald Trump on the ballot.
00:21:57.000But it gets even more radical than that.
00:22:01.000Again, this is not some sort of fringe, weird transgender blogger at University of Washington.
00:22:08.000This is top level constitution scholars.
00:22:14.000Quote, to the extent of any conflict with prior constitutional rules, section three repeals, supersedes, or simply satisfies them.
00:22:21.000This includes the rules against bills of attainder or ex post facto laws, the due process clause or even the free speech principles of the first amendment.
00:23:55.000Now, thankfully, thankfully, this probably will not be held up by the Supreme Court.
00:24:00.000I mean, the Supreme Court would say, yeah, this is crazy.
00:24:03.000But that doesn't mean they're not going to try.
00:24:07.000They're going to say that he gave aid and comfort insurrectionists, which can define as bad tweets.
00:24:12.000Imagine the Secretary of State of Pennsylvania or Michigan literally having a one party election and having the Secretary of State of Pennsylvania saying, we are here to protect democracy.
00:24:23.000And only Joe Biden will be led on the ballot.
00:24:43.000If you want any evidence for your left wing friends that the intelligentsia of the American left are nothing more than medieval defenders of oligarchs, just read this article.
00:25:04.000A very, very smart friend of mine said, Charlie, as recently said to me, and so smart, he said, as aggressive the American right was in trying to challenge the 2020 election results, times it by 10, and that is what the left will do, and the media will cover for them.
00:25:25.000Continues by saying, the men who framed and ratified The 14th Amendment entrusted us, the people of the United States, the means to vigilantly protect against those who would make a mockery of American democracy.
00:25:41.000The Constitution, the rule of law, and of America itself, it fell to generations that followed to enforce our hallowed Constitution and ensure that our union endures today.
00:26:00.000With this law review article, but there's another wrinkle to this.
00:26:05.000It's not just far left wingers and Lauren's tribe that are pushing this.
00:26:12.000This is also from people who self describe themselves as conservative scholars.
00:26:22.000Conservative scholars have cozied on up to this.
00:26:28.000In fact, two people that are members of the Federalist Society, which does excellent work traditionally, Is saying there's a lot of merit to this that Section 3's disqualification clause has by no means outlived its contemplated necessity, nor will it ever, as the post Civil War framers presciently foresaw.
00:26:51.000To the contrary, this provision of our Constitution continues to protect the Republic from those who are bent on its dissolution.
00:26:59.000Every official who takes an oath to uphold the Constitution's Article 6 provides every public official must, is obligated to enforce this very provision.
00:27:13.000They're doing it because they're insecure.
00:27:17.000Just listen to this kind of stream of consciousness from the CIA morning show, Play Cut 41.
00:27:24.000We're following new polling that shows Donald Trump's hold over the Republican base is as strong as ever.
00:27:32.000In the latest CBS News YouGov survey, the former president has 62% of support from likely GOP primary voters, 46% clear of his closest challenger.
00:27:46.000And among those likely Trump voters, The poll shows they trust the former president even more than their own loved ones.
00:28:20.000The two members of the Federalist Society that are allegedly on the right, law professors William Baud and Michael Stokes Paulson.
00:28:29.000The Atlantic has come out and said, We're immensely gratified to see a richly researched article soon to be published in an academic journal has recently come to the same conclusion that we had and is attracting well deserved attention outside of a small circle of scholars, including Jeffrey Sonnefeld and Anjan Jain of the Yale Law School of Management.
00:28:49.000Oh, Jeffrey Sonnefeld, I could tell you a story about him.
00:28:54.000That's a separate episode for another time.
00:28:56.000The evidence laid out by the legal scholars of William Baud and Michael Stokes Paulson in sweep and force of Section 3, available as a preprint and a memento sooner or later, it will influence, if not determine, the course of the American constitutional history and American history itself.
00:29:12.000AKA, the top legal minds of society are saying Trump should not be allowed on the ballot regardless of conviction just because we think that.
00:30:32.000That it's going to be more like April or June or July.
00:30:37.000So, yes, we don't control all of the secretaries of states in the states, but for example, Pinal County or Yavapai County in Arizona, just say Joe Biden is not going to be allowed on the ballot.
00:31:29.000By the way, you want to get really radical?
00:31:31.000We could end up winning some of these blue states if every one of the red counties do this, if Joe Biden's not on the ballot because we got 100% of the votes.
00:32:27.000Okay, every single red state recorder's office has to say that based on Section 3 of the United States Constitution, Joe Biden will not be allowed on the ballot if you even dare do this in one corner of the country, that a former president is not allowed to be on the ballot in any of these states.
00:33:29.000If Adrian Fontes even says, oh, well, you know, he's an insurrectionist, and according to Section 3, we can just prevent him from the ballot.
00:34:32.000But I'm not going to bend over and take it.
00:34:33.000I'm not going to allow Lawrence Tribe and these two Federalist Society guys, which is normally a very good organization, so it's very bizarre, to keep Donald J. Trump, a former president, off the ballot.
00:34:44.000Could you guys broadcast your insecurity anymore?
00:34:49.000You might as well just get the nose piercings and the purple hair and admit to everybody that you have daddy issues.
00:34:56.000We understand that you're insecure, but don't get in the way of the people having a voice in the election.
00:35:01.000If you dare even go that way, we're going to do everything we can to keep Joe Biden off the ballot county by county.
00:35:06.000We will go county by county by county and say, fine, Section 3, 14th Amendment, time to play ball.
