It is Thursday, the fifteenth of May. This is the warning. Donald Trump is hourring his way across the Middle East, creating images that are unprecedented and unimaginable for an American president. I remember reading somewhere that in America, we care about human dignity, we care about human rights, we care about the rule of law, we care about fundamental values. Alas not anymore. Now Trump surrounded by Arab thugs, desecrated, denigrated,
and slandered the United States. You see, it was a miserable hellhole for two hundred and forty nine years until Trump became our king. Look at these pictures of the oligarchs gathered, Look at the corruption, Look at the grift, contemplate the greed. It is otherworldly, to say the least. Now, under the Capitol Dome, attacked by Trump's mob of rioters, his editionist on the sixth of January, a very different
type of contest. The type of battle is unfolding between the worst of the worst and the best of the best. There are two types of democrats that exist together under the Capitol Dome. There are schumercrats, appeasers, and there are fighting democrats like Dan Goldman, like Senator Chris Murphy, and it's these fighting Democrats like Congressman Eric Smallwell that are
the salvation to this crisis. The fight is necessary, and let's talk about what it is that we're witnessing when we see this exchange, incredible exchange between Senator Murphy and Robert Kennedy.
Instead that the measles vaccine was never fully tested for safety, you said there's fetal debris in the measles vaccine and this morning, all true, all true this morning, and from the public, that's not. None of that is none of.
True. Product, You're not what you're talking not.
For the record, Let's have a little bit of order so that you can get I'm speaking.
I didn't ask, I didn't ask for a response, yet I like to lay out the predicated my question before I'm interrupted by the witness. You should respect for this committee.
Or incredibly, between Eric Swollwell and Christina.
You agree though that this is doctor Is that right?
The same protocols that are secretary.
I want you to have credibility and I want you to be taken seriously. Is this doctored or is it not?
I'm taken quite seriously.
Is it doctored or not doctor the.
Importance that the President has given me.
To I understand is it doctored or not?
And that's important to remembers that every single time a case is built.
I'm secretary, i have a seven year old, a six year old and a three year old. I have a bullshit detector. I'm just asking you, is this doctored or not doctored.
The US Constitution establishes three branches of government. There is the Article one branch, the Congress. There is the Article two branch, the executive, And there is the Article three branch, the judiciary. All three of these branches check and balance the other. They create a constitutional harmony, and this balance is what keeps the citizens safe from the state because it holds that no branch is dominant over the other.
Each branch is coequal, each is separate, each has its mission, and so one of the vital constitutional missions of the Congress is to perform oversight on the executive. The President, who administers but does not make the laws, does not point a finger, and accused does not have the power to convict. That rests with the judiciary. It is the Congress that spends the taxpayers money. It is the Congress that has powers that are not granted to the president.
And so when a cabinet secretary comes to the United States Congress, they come not as a guest, but because they are required under American law, under the Constitution. The Congress on the matters that you're watching is supreme. And what we see, whether it's from Robert Kennedy, his evasiveness is insanity, his delusions epic dishonesty. Christy no Her unbridled contempt is distain for the concept that the United States is a constitutional republic. What christin Noma is saying is
go yourself. And so an incredible drama is playing out moment by moment by moment every day as two forces collide, shaped by a third. The shaping force is the appeasement, which puts a magnifying lens on the conflict when it comes because it's so striking to see the duplicity, the mendacity, the utter indecency fully exposed. So Eric Swollwell in this moment, will not let it go, and he only has five minutes. My question is, and I want them Democrats to seriously
consider this. What do they think might happen if the next Democratic member after Eric Swallowell picks up exactly where he left off and let it go all day long. She's not there to give a campaign speech, and the United States Congress is not the Fox News set. Let the confrontation go on. The weak spot of the attack
is all that matters. Getting in more questions is irrelevant because in this moment, Christy Gnoman is being fundamentally exposed as a liar, as a chief hustler, as a vapid, delusional, power mad abuser of the Constitution of the United States, the worst of the worst, and this is an appropriate use of power, and it sets up the most fundamental of questions, and that is the one that has to be put to the American people by the Democratic Party,
which is in a bad state right now. The party doesn't speak monolithically, so the party won't be asking the question. Candidates across America will be saying, send me to Washington and give me the power to fight and stand up
for you against all of this. And all of this means standing up not just against Trump, but against the appeasement and the appeasers that have let Trump run effing wild for one hundred and fifty days and have created a scenario where contempt is the currency of the Trump administration in its dealings with the representatives of the American
people who were elected just like Trump. Should Trump have a mandate, then so do the people like Eric Swallwell, Dan Goldman, and Chris Murphy who are asking the essential questions. And this is all that matters in these exchanges. Christino, Cash, Battel and all of the rest of Trump's contemptuous handmaids do not have the standing, do not have the right to tell a member of Congress who works for us, elected by us, to go f themselves in the name
of Donald Trump. These confrontations must increase, they must build. Chris Murphy is putting on a master class clinic of how to conduct us Senate oversight. It is phenomenal. And Chris Murphy, whether he has the title or not, so far as I'm concerned, that guy is the leader of the Senate Democrats, because that guy is the leader of the fight. He is tough, he is smart, he is focused, he is committed. He is an American patriot on top of his game. And what Chris Murphy cares about isn't
a title, isn't a job. It's his actual public service. He is the best of the best. Watch Dan Goldman give Christie Nome the business here. Why is your opinion better? We have more authority than the Supreme.
Court, investigators, to judges and Immigration Court that all said he was MS thirteen and was removed to this from this.
Did you understand that is you saying that? That is you saying.
That no, no, no no, that is not making that determination against him.
If you don't, court has considered all that. The judge is considered all that, Madame secretary, if you would be quiet, because I'm reclaiming my time. Dan Goldman is not backing down. Dan Goldman has righteous anger. Dang Goldman understand that at the core what's happening is deeply wrong, and he puts it to Christy Nome right here and explains to her her opinion doesn't matter. It's her compliance with an order of the Supreme Court that's at stake and at hand.
She has no right to plunge this country into a constitutional crisis by betraying her oath. And what can be said about Eric Swallwell The demand, at long last, after ten years of insanity, to make one of these people look at a doctored image in front of their faces and to confront the lie. This is the Orwellian moment we've been waiting for. The truth is not what's real, it's what Christy Nome and Donald Trump declare it to be.
Just like O'Brien prophesied in nineteen eighty four while torturing Winston, it doesn't matter, he said to Winston, how many fingers you see? What matters is how many the party tells
you you see. And so what Murphy, what Goldman, what Swallwell are doing is shining a light into the abyss, into the darkness while we still have that opportunity as a nation as a people, and they're showing us the contempt, the depravity, the indecency, and the injustice that is gathering and coming for every one of us if we don't stop it right now. That's what's happening in America today.
Some members are better than others, and when we see the best, we ought to celebrate it, and we ought to spread it to model the type of stamina, the type of courage that all of us expect from the people in the United States Congress, who must defend the Constitution against the daily assault in vandalism if they says at the hands of the MAGA regime and its contemptuous leadership.
