It is Monday, June the sixteenth. This is the warning. What a weekend across the United States. The protests that took place across all fifty states, in fact, in capitals all over the world, that included thousands of American cities, villages, and towns, were the largest in the history of the United States. Millions of people turned out. They raised the American flag, they printed signs, and they marched and they cheered, and they stood up for something that's bigger than all
of us, and that's the United States America. There is a startling reality, and it's this. Though the country is two hundred and fifty years old, half of all Americans that have ever lived are alive right now. There have only ever been seven hundred million of us from the beginning, and so that had of all Americans that have ever been will decide the future for every American not yet born. And this is fundamental to grasp because it is elemental
to the concept of American patriotism. We Americans leave it a little bit better than we got it. We hand off to the next generation a country that's freer, more prosperous. We make it an inch closer at least to the summit of that city upon a hill that John Winthrop talked about that, John Kennedy talked about that, Ronald Reagan talked about that we share as Americans. Abraham Lincoln talked about all of this. At a moment of violence and chaos and disunion at the beginning of the Civil War,
he said, we must remember that we are friends. He mentioned that if it is our lot as a nation to die, it will be by suicide, not foreign invasion. And so when you look at Donald Trump's truth social posts, the madness, the rage that stowed within him as he sat watching his military parade spectacle fall flat, as he watched the empty crowds. As he watched and he saw those empty risers, as he saw the millions of people
protesting against him, he grew darker. He grew angrier. Look at the faces in the front row of the dayas Trump is falling asleep, Malania is falling asleep, Little Marco is yawning. His wife looks like she just got off
the phone with the divorce attorney. They know what's happening, they know what a failure this is, and they are all affected by the darkness, by the rage emanating out from Donald Trump, and so that rage within Trump built and built and built, and then it exploded on Sunday night with a declaration of war against who against us. Donald Trump sees an enemy, and the enemy is Chicago, and the enemy is New York, and the enemy is California.
A man who has won election with forty nine point five percent of the vote, one of the smaller mandates in the history of presidential elections, has decided to use his power to crush dissent and to punish, as he promised, the people who voted against him. What Donald Trump has seen is that when he looks out that balcony from the White House out across over America, scanning in the middle distance to Washington Monument, what he sees is a nation to be subdued, to be controlled, to be yoked
into obedience to him. The comments that he made are sick, they're twisted, They bear no semblance in reality, but they are deeply connected to what Christy Noms said in Los Angeles. The federal government and Avatar I suppose of the most extreme elements of red state America, have taken it upon themselves to liberate American states and cities from their duly elected leaders at a local level, at a state level, and the liberation will be violent, and it will be
brought to you by masked federal agents. So when you think about gang problems in gangs, Donald Trump has said the country's being invaded by Venezuelan gangs. No evidence of that. Donald Trump has said over and over again, America is undersea. But the only siege that most of us can see is the federal siege ordered by Donald Trump, ordered by his head of Homeland Security, sending masked agents, sending military into America's streets, arming them against the American people and
turning them lose to do violence. And we saw that this weekend. We saw the pictures of out of control cops, we saw the pictures of peaceful protesters, and we saw the madness in Washington of Donald Trump. And so it all built through a weekend of assassination, random shootings, sporadic acts of violence until Sunday night, when after taking it all in, Donald Trump doubled down, and what he said
is the leashes off. I have power, and I'm going to use it to terrorize the people who did not vote for me, who do not support me, and who object to the unco constitutional in illegal actions at hand. Every American patriot is called in this moment to rise up against us, to stand up against this, to speak out for the people that are being targeted, harassed, and brutalized by uniforms of oppression. We have reached an inflection point in the United States. After ten long years of
Donald Trump. The mass are dropped. He is what I have told you he is. He is a fascist, and fascism has come to America, wrapped in the flag and carrying the cross. It is dangerous, It is an evil, and it must be opposed, and it will be opposed. It will be opposed by you, It will be opposed by me. It will be opposed by millions of us, too many to put a way into camps, too many
to shoot, too many to arrest. A great, peaceful movement will root itself in the American consciousness, and it will grow, and it will grow and it will grow, and by the time we reach the fall, there will be ten million strong and growing on the streets. Because the American people, half of whom who have ever lived, are alive right now, are the same people from which we came. We are defiant. We are strong, and we are free, and we will remain.
Ever so, Donald Trump has picked a fight he cannot win. Donald Trump is a weak and failing president, and as he feels cornered, he will lash out more and more, but none of it will subdue the patriotism and the fighting spirit of the American people, who will not tolerate an out of control, unhinged president who has decided he is our dictator, when in fact he is our venomous clown that, though elected, has no right to do the things he is doing. This is the warning. I'm Steve Schmidt.
