Speaker 1 (00:00):
It is Monday, October twenty seventh. This is the warning.
Another week has begun in America, and it will be
a week of depravity, in sanity, malice, and mayhem, all
of it orchestrated by the President of the United States.
His sycophants range from the deranged, to the extremists, to
(00:23):
the zealots to the opportunists. They are a mix of
disordered personalities. Some are criminal, some are sociopathic, some are psychopathic.
But none is more preposterous, more incompetent than the prissy, preening,
sycophanic Secretary of the Treasury, Scott Besson, who dared to
(00:48):
suggest he's a soybean farmer on the Sunday shows.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
The President has also said he does want our farmers
to be taken care of. You did mention that China
has been boycotting American soybeans, and American farmers have really suffered.
Do you see a real light at the end of
the tunnel there that may allow soybeans again?
Speaker 3 (01:13):
Well, Martha, in case you don't know what, I'm actually
a soybean farmer. So I have felt this pain too.
And there are a couple of things happening here. One
the Chinese have substantially dropped their purchases to almost zero,
so they unfortunately have been using American farmers, who are
amongst President Trump's biggest supporters. I think he had more
(01:35):
than ninety percent support, and then this was one of
the biggest crops in twenty or thirty years, so it
was a perfect storm. But I think we have addressed
the farmer's concerns, and I'm not going to get ahead
of the president, but I believe when the announcement of
the deal with China is made public that our soybean
(01:57):
farmers will fill very good about what's going on, both
for this season and the coming seasons.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
He is a billionaire hedge fund manager, and he is
Donald Trump's indispensable partner and gaslighting the American people about
the economy that he's wrecking.
Speaker 4 (02:19):
He is a disgrace.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
He is a man who, in less than one year
of service, one of the highest ranking officials in the
American government in this age of sickness and sleaziness, has
had two near fistfights, one with Elon Musk right outside
the Oval office and another with a junior government official.
(02:44):
He does not like being challenged, and he is absurd.
It used to be that government officials or political candidates
had to have it together when they went on a
Sunday show. In fact, it could make or break your career.
And I guess this is what Barry Weiss News will
(03:04):
look like. It's the type of generic blah questioning appropriate
for any country with state media.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
Now.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
The government of Ontario, one of the largest, if not
the largest, trading partner for twenty one States, ran a
seventy five million dollar media campaign in the United States
talking about the malignancy of tariffs towards prosperity, using the
(03:35):
words of Ronald Dragen.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
Here's a segment of.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
The ed high tariffs inevitably leave, the retaliation by foreign
countries and the triggering of fierce trade wars.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
Then the worst happens.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Marcut, shrink and collectse businesses and industry shutdown, and millions
of people lose their jobs.
Speaker 4 (03:56):
All of it is true.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
Ronald Reagan was a free Tradernald Reagan spoke out against
tariff's and the trading relationship between the United States and
Canada is worth a trillion dollars across the boundaries, and
it's being wrecked. Canada has every right to advertise to
communicate directly to the American people in a free and
(04:19):
open society. The idea that Scott Bessen offered, without so
much as a follow up question from Miss Brennan, was
that Canada is guilty of trying to interfere in American sovereignty.
Speaker 4 (04:35):
It is an incredible answer.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
It is the talking points of the Chinese state that
have been given for forty years anytime an American officials
dared to question their human rights record. But of course
it's not possible for an American official to question any
nations human rights record, given the extra judicial killings, giving
(05:00):
the rumors of war, and the manifest abuses taking place
against American citizens in the United States by a nascent
masked secret police force. Now Miss Brennan could have, at
this absurdity gone in for the kill. That's what a
prepared journalist is supposed to do.
Speaker 4 (05:22):
There's an old.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Saying in the Marine Corps prior proper planning prevents his
poor performance. Now, Scott Bessen is an apologist for every
insanity that passes Trump's lips, all of them. The economy
is falling apart. But in this instant, Miss Brennan didn't
have the wherewithal to ask if the four hundred million
(05:46):
dollar plane gifted to Trump by the Qatari government, that's
not an influence operation, that's not an intrusion into American sovereignty.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
Victor Orgone didn't come to the.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
United States on Trump's behalf multiple times and call for
the destruction of American democracy. What about bbing At in Yahoo?
What about the dictator of El Salvador. The problem with
all of these shows is that there's no challenge to
whatever absurdist utterance is made in any given instance by
(06:23):
any of these people who threaten to kill arbitrarily like
Stephen Miller, who make false accusations like Christy Nome, or
threaten violence upon Americans. Donald Trump, through this very moment
in ten years time, Donald Trump was never asked a
single question about, at his core, what does he believe
(06:46):
about dissent, about liberty?
Speaker 4 (06:48):
No question.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
But if you could put Chuck Schumer up against the
wall and shoot him, would you would you like to
do that? The presidency is a sacred trust. The American
president tendency swears an oath to a constitution that enshrines
forevermore the right of the American to be free in
(07:10):
their speech, in their worship, in their conscience, and now,
at the edge of the two hundred and fiftieth year
of the independence of the United States, Donald Trump has
sought to make dissent a crime. And with regard to
all who say no, and all who say enough, to
(07:31):
every decent American who says not in my name, the
response of the Trump government is identical in its malice
and in its threat to what might come out of
the Chinese state, or the Russian government, or the Iranian government,
or the Venezuelan government. Constant threats against the people, and
(07:55):
it is intolerable. In about a year's time, the American
people will have I have an opportunity to cleanse this entire, vicious,
idiotic political cast from power. That corrupt class of politicians,
many Democrats in that number.
Speaker 4 (08:16):
As well, want you to believe that the politicians pick
the voters. It's not true. They want you to believe
that you may not be able to vote.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
It's not true. You have the power to throw these
people out, and you should do it, because the survival
of the United States is a free society, depends on it.
This is the warning, and I'm Steve Schmidt. This is
the warning. I invite you to join this community, where
I promise to be honest, blunt and direct about what
(08:49):
is happening in this country. America is in crisis. Follow
