This is the warning. Donald Trump sat down in the Oval Office with Sean Hannity. He delivered an address of sorts with malice for all and charity for none, and deep rage against anybody who suggests mercy, or in Sean Hannity's case, when he tried to move on to the economy, but no, Trump couldn't do it.
Joe Biden has very bad advisors. Somebody advised Joe Biden to get pardons to everybody but him.
They wanted to take care of him. He was young. They wanted to I don't care that yelling.
This is more important because right now the economy.
Is going to do great. I'm here.
But you have to understand he had bad advisors on almost everything.
Let's talk about lying for a second. There are lives of convenience that politicians do all of the time, people like Senator Richard Blumenthal, who severely exaggerated his service in the Vietnam War. Bill Clinton is a famous example of this. I did not have sexual relations with that woman. Robert Menendez is an example of a felonious liar. What do you mean, there's gold bars in my suit jacket. Trump's
laws are different. Their lies of authority that have the power to make people and things disappear that you just saw or aren't supposed to see, or maybe the better word is you are allowed to see, but dare not comment on. This is the point of the grave danger posed by the Elon Musk Nazi salute. What Elon Musk did is grotesque. How the New York Times in the
Washington Post covered it, it was dangerous. That's why David Marinus, one of the most important journalists in the country over the last fifty years, has said the Washington Post lost its soul. Trump's interview with Sean Hannity was a paeon to imbecility, ludicrous mess. Let's listen to Donald Trump talk about water. His ignorance is astounding.
Jet sprinklers didn't work in the homes because they had no water. To think of it, we have sprinklers, think of it with no water. They didn't have any water. The fire hydrants.
You have believe it hard to believe the place that sprinklers. It's nice.
Look, Gavin's got one thing he can do. He can release the water that comes from the north. There is massive amounts of water, rain water and mountain water that comes to with the snow comes down when as it melts, there's so much water, they're releasing it into the Pacific Ocean. They don't need reservoirs, they don't need any of They're spending all this money on these reservoirs.
If and they're fake reservoirs.
You know they're the reservoir I don't think we should give California anything until they let water flow down into.
Their just from the north to the south. This is a political thing. I don't know what it is.
You know, they talk about the delta smelt. It's a little tiny fish like this. They say it's an endangered species. Well, how is it endangered? No wonder, it's in danger. It's not getting any water. How do you if you have a fish and you're stopping the water is not going to hurt the fishing.
The delta smelt has no more to do with the fires in Los Angeles than does geology on Mars. Nothing whatsoever. Release the water. Trump says, as if Kevin K. Newsome is Moses, he's not, there is no doubt a great deal of incompetence in Los Angeles. But let me say something about that. Los Angeles and California are the places
that trends start. The incompetence. There is a warning to the nation about the arsonists and imbeciles setting up camp in the Oval Office starting with this interview, which most presidents would never have done, because politicizing the Oval Office was seen as a cheap thing to do. Symbol of authority did American presidents use in serious moments. Point of history. It was a place where Winston Churchill and Franklin Roosevelt met on a hundred occasions, precisely at five fdr. Apostle
of Peace. The champion of freedom would mix the cocktails in a room in which Donald Trump now sits and desecrates by his presence as he tries to burn down every precept of American values and decency and concept of
the rule of law. And so the news of the Hannity interview was him telling you that what happened on January sixth was not a violent mob attacking the United States capital to overthrow an election result incited by Donald Trump, who watched it on television and said, so what let it burn.
The only criticism of pushback I've seen is about people that were convicted or involved in incidents where they were violent with police.
Why did they get a part.
In number of reasons number when they were in there for three and a half years, a long time, and in many solitary confinement, treated like nobody's ever been treated so badly. They were treated like the worst criminals in history.
And you know what they were there for.
They were protesting the vote because they knew the election was rigged, and they were protesting the vote, and that should be allowed.
To protest the vote.
You should be allowed to some of those people with the police. True, But they were very minor incidents, Okay, you know they get built up by that couple of fake guys that are in CNN all the time.
Somebody watch it.
They were very minor incidents and it was time.
The images are real and they must be shown. They must be known. But it's hard to show those images now, and it will become harder so to show the ugly parts of history because the big tech overlords don't want them to be seen. So Donald Trump is able to turn criminals into martyrs, which is precisely what the fascists in Germany did in the nineteen thirties. Have no doubt
about this. There's going to be a march in Washington from the White House to the Capitol, and it will be a march of multiples of the convicted criminals pardoned by Trump. But they'll be there, almost all of them, and they will become heroes of the state. Pete Hexsath and Donald Trump may order the January sixth insurrectionists to get military honors to line up the United States Marine Corps full dress blues, saluting them as that mob marches
up the Capital and recreation. What that mob is is Trump's militia now is thugs, and they will be set loose in the States in elections anywhere there is somebody to be intimidated. The Oathkeepers and the Proud Boys will be there, and their membership is searching. The disaster is beginning. The good news is Trump can't burn it all down
in four years. It's not enough time. The opposition must form, and it must become hard, must become tough, but always bound by decency and honesty, integrity anchored to the concept of probity and rectitude. No more Robert Menendez is no more serious. People are stepping forward. Secretary of State Benson, congratulations on your impending announcement for governor. There are others out there getting ready who will not step back. Good for them. What happened on Fox News is just a
scene in a reality show. Hannity's a character at this point. It's not news. Hannity's almost a psychologist. Please God, move on, economy, economy, economy. But the optimistic irishman's luck has run out because Trump is what he is, and what he is is perfectly clear. This is the warning. I'm Steve Schmidt. This is the warning, and I invite you to join.
