1:30Ben Meiselas:I mean, look at this guy. Sickly, weak, frail, getting more deranged by the day. There he is on Air Force One with Jared Kushner, MAGA Mike Johnson, Dr. Oz. Donald Trump went to what was, I guess, supposed to be a memorial service for Charlie Kirk, but it looked like a deranged political rally where Donald Trump just started spewing hate. Like literally, he was like, I hate my political opponents. I hate you. And then he started talking about tariffs and how he's going to find a cure for autism today. And I think they're going to blame Tylenol for causing autism in children based on their quackery.
2:10Ben Meiselas:I think Tylenol probably has a huge lawsuit if they want to bring one. And of course, Donald Trump and his regime keep talking about things that I know are very important to you, like massive UFC fights in front of the White House. So our taxpayer dollars can go to ridiculous things like this while people can't afford housing. They can't afford rent. They can't afford groceries. They can't afford gas. Energy prices are through the roof. People's health care is being ripped away from them by the Trump regime. People can't afford education, but Donald Trump is going to be doing UFC fights from the White House.
2:45Ben Meiselas:I mean, how utterly ridiculous is that 90 ,000 square foot golden ballrooms that corporations, foreign and domestic, I guess, can contribute to as well. And they could have their name on the people's house. I mean, that's what they're focused on. Can y 'all just focus on keeping Americans' health care in place? It's one of the things that Democrats have said. These MAGA Republicans are about to let the Affordable Care Act tax credits expire, which means that your health care costs are about to go up, even if you're not on Medicaid or Medicare, substantially in a way that probably won't be affordable for most Americans.
3:21Ben Meiselas:Now, did you see this outside of the stadium where the Charlie Kirk event was taking place? There was like trash all over the floor. Now, I'm not sure how this thing was organized, but it was a total and utter mess. You know, someone on TikTok, a reporter, posted this video of what was going on outside. Let's play this clip. Look at all this trash. left outside of Charlie Kirk's memorial in Glendale, Arizona. People left water bottles and chairs. They left wagons. They left snacks. All of it just littered across the ground. State Farm Arena has a no bag policy, not just clear bags, no bags. And that means folks who were out here since early this morning just left all their stuff out here.
4:06I don't know who's going to clean it up. Crowds of literally hundreds and thousands of people are just walking over this trash on their way to the security checkpoints.
4:16Ben Meiselas:And I'm about to show you what Donald Trump said on the inside, but let me show you what's going on on the outside and what's actually happening in the United States of America. No, Donald, gas is not below$2 a gallon right now. I know you say that it's below two bucks. It isn't anywhere you look at gas. It's not all that low. Also, the dollar has collapsed this year more than any time, basically, in any recent history. Donald Trump's new H-1B visa scheme, where he will be charging, what, like a million dollars or five million dollars to expedite the H-1B visa process while he has ice, masked ice agents disappear human beings.
4:56Ben Meiselas:Well, that's going to now cost U.S. employers an additional 14 billion dollars annually. And again, that's on top of all the tariffs that American corporations are paying. I'm sure you know the job market is absolute hell right now. That's one of the first times I think really ever in recent history where there are just so many people looking for jobs and those jobs don't exist. What the Trump regime is doing is their scheme that Donald Trump always has. If you don't test, you don't know the results. So they're not publishing data about inflation. They're not publishing data about hunger in the United States.
5:34Ben Meiselas:and they're trying to stop all dissent by curtailing and destroying people's First Amendment rights. But guess what? If your name is Ghislaine Maxwell and you're a convicted sex trafficker, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding. The price is right for you. She's living the life right now. She's in this Camp Brian in Texas. The Sunday Mirror got the scoop. She's doing yoga, having the time of her life as the Trump regime covers up the Epstein files. Let me bring you just into those back-to-back events over the weekend. There was that one event Donald Trump had in Mount Vernon, Virginia, where he called former President Biden a son of a bitch.
6:16Ben Meiselas:He goes, don't feel bad for him. Former President Biden suffering from stage four cancer right now. He's the former president of the United States of America. And Donald Trump's there in Mount Vernon, Virginia saying, don't feel bad for that son of a bitch. And Donald Trump uses the curse word. I mean, have we ever had someone so flagrantly inappropriate in that position? And that's the nicest thing I could possibly say. Here's Donald Trump saying that on Saturday night. Play this clip. The very angry, mean Biden. You know, Biden was always a mean guy, but never a smart guy. You know, even you go back 30 years ago, 40 years ago, he was a stupid guy, but he was always a mean son of a bitch, you know?
7:03Has it working? Not working too well for him right now, is it? So when you start feeling sorry for him, remember, he's a bad guy.
7:10Ben Meiselas:And then on Sunday, Donald Trump gave that hate speech at Charlie Kirk's event, supposed to be a memorial, but Donald Trump and Stephen Miller turned it into a hate rally. I mean, really one of the most horrifying things I've watched when you watched their speech. And then Donald Trump says, I hate my opponents. I hate them. I mean, you're supposed to be the president of these United States bringing people together. You're not supposed to stand there and say you hate your political opponents. Such an anti-American statement to make. I mean, truthfully, traitorous. Here, play this clip. In that private moment on his dying day, we find everything we need to know about who Charlie Kirk truly was.
7:58He was a missionary with a noble spirit and a great, great purpose. He did not hate his opponents. He wanted the best for them. That's where I disagreed with Charlie. I hate my opponent and I don't want the best for them. I'm sorry. I am sorry, Erica. But now Erica can talk to me and the whole group and maybe they can convince me that that's not right, but I can't stand my opponent.
8:27Ben Meiselas:And then Donald Trump at this speech, this is supposed to be a memorial service. He brings in his medical quackery as they're firing people on the vaccine board. That was one of those things that we're not even, we don't even think about like, yes, the government's supposed to have qualified people on its vaccine advisory board. They got rid of all of those people. They're preventing or making it extremely difficult for kids under the age of four to get like vaccines for like just anything at this point. And now these quacks, they're going to go and they're going to say that autism, that they've discovered autism, they discovered that autism is caused by Tylenol.
9:07Ben Meiselas:I mean, to me, Tylenol has a mega defamation lawsuit. That's what they're going, that's what they're going to go with, that they found that they found the answer to autism. It's just quack, right? This is what says at the memorial service here play this clip it was charlie who helped unite maga and you know what m-a-h-a is that's right make america healthy again and tomorrow we're going to have one of the biggest announcement really medically i think in the history of our country we're going to be doing it with Bobby and Oz and all of the professionals. I think you're going to find it to be amazing.
9:51I think we found an answer to autism. How about that? Autism tomorrow. We're going to be talking in the Oval Office in the White House about autism, how it happens, so we won't let it happen anymore and how to get at least somewhat better when you have it so that parents can help their child their beautiful child that's a big one i've been i've been bugging everybody over
10:27Ben Meiselas:there get the answer to that but can we bring you into real america okay where i don't care if you're a Democrat or Republican or an independent, you know that groceries are not affordable right now. You know that right now health care is being ripped away. You know that they're shutting down rural hospitals if you live in rural areas. I mean, I think you know what's on the line. If you're a farmer, you're a farmer speaking out at GOP representative Alford's town hall recently. Play this clip. I think agriculture has taken a heck of a hit on a lot of misinformation and he is not helping the farmer.
11:05I mean, we farm about 3 ,500 acres. We are going to be so far in the red after the crop comes off, sold, you can only sit on it so long. You got bills to pay and now we're dealing with 7, 8, 9, 10 % operating notes at the local bank. You know, I just, when are you going to stand up for us instead of kissing his ass for these trade deals
11:35Ben Meiselas:and and the tariffs more so the tariffs than the trade by the way even Republican Don Bacon from Nebraska granted he's not running again for re-election he admits what's going on he he's saying it here play this clip I should speak up and hopefully try to bring a point that tariffs Tariffs aren't working, at least coffee. I mean, I went and bought coffee, but I came back from my apartment. And it was up$4, the bag that I buy, right? That's not a success right there. So I feel like if we have an opportunity to speak up, other people think they'd rather try to give them more time. But I think a lot of people share my view on tariffs.
12:14A lot of people are scared of it.
12:16Ben Meiselas:Yeah, it's not good out there right now, to put it mildly. And then, you know, you have, you know, I think in a in a powerful move that I support UK, Canada and Australia formally recognizing a Palestinian state breaking with the US. They make that announcement on Sunday. So Donald Trump leaves the UK. The UK, Canada, Australia announced that they are supporting recognition of a Palestinian state. The United States is not. And then Netanyahu says there will never, ever be a Palestinian state. You know, and I just think about Donald Trump's promise that he was going to end the war in Gaza and end the atrocities there in 24 hours.
12:58Ben Meiselas:Remember, he was doing those events in Dearborn, Michigan. Palestinians for Trump, Muslims for Trump. He's going to save us. He's promised that he's going to know he's made things worse. Remember, Donald Trump said he was going to bring peace to Ukraine in 24 hours because I've got such a great relationship with Putin and such a great relationship with Zelensky. It's going to be easy. And now he says he was being sarcastic. It was all a joke. L.O.L. He didn't really mean he was going to stop the war. You didn't know that he's a standup comedian and he lied. Well, he's not a lie. It's a joke. It was like his comedy routine about life and death, war and peace.
13:35Ben Meiselas:Funny guy, Donald. Funny guy. Here he is just in his own word saying that he was joking. Here, play this clip. I'm not understating the complexity of all this, but as a candidate, you said you would have this war settled in 24 hours. Well, I was being a little bit sarcastic when I said that. What I really mean is I'd like to get it settled. Really? Not a funny joke at all. I just want to leave you all with this, folks. Donald Trump to me is a weakness masquerading as strength at this point. And we all have to act with moral clarity in this moment. Okay. You can't capitulate with these individuals.
14:18Ben Meiselas:You can't back down. Donald Trump's not looking to make deals. He ordered Maga Mike and Republicans do not speak to Democrats. We have to understand that's the environment we're in right now. These aren't normal times. America is under a dictatorship right now. The question isn't, are we in a constitutional crisis? The answer is we are. And we are deep into an authoritarian regime right now, just like Putin, just like Orban. That's what exists in the United States. It's not a functioning democracy right now. but we the people need to stand up there's a no kings protest in october get the word out you need to go to the no kings protest tell people about go to the no kings website let's be there join become a member of this youtube page share this knowledge okay we need to stick together because the authoritarian forces they're desperate right now they are making a big push and we need to stop that.
