There are so many people 21 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:44,920 mentioned in this In addition to indicting Trump, other 22 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:50,040 indictments here are Rudy Giuliani, Mark Meadows, the 23 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:53,480 former chief of staff, John Eastman, Trump's lawyer. 24 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,120 Top Republican officials in the state of Georgia. 25 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:03,680 In the Georgia Senate, the Georgia Republican Party, other 26 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:08,280 people indicted are the fake electors that were being put 27 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:13,970 together to present as the real electors in Georgia, Michigan, 28 00:02:14,050 --> 00:02:17,050 Arizona, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania. 29 00:02:18,450 --> 00:02:20,570 And it goes through all these other states here. 30 00:02:20,570 --> 00:02:23,730 Michigan alone here. Here, I'll just read it. 31 00:02:23,730 --> 00:02:28,410 It's Act 5 here in the indictment and I'll. 32 00:02:28,410 --> 00:02:31,690 Read it to you, It says. On or about the 20th day of 33 00:02:31,690 --> 00:02:38,080 November 2020, Donald Trump and Mark Meadows met with the 34 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:41,840 Majority Leader of the Michigan Senate, Michael. 35 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,760 Shirky, That's a Republican at the. 36 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:48,560 Time and the Republican speaker of the Michigan House of 37 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:55,160 Representatives Lee Chatfield and other Michigan legislators 38 00:02:55,160 --> 00:03:00,520 in the Oval Office. At the White House, where Donald 39 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,120 Trump. I'm quoting now from the 40 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:05,640 indictment where Donald Trump made false statements concerning 41 00:03:05,640 --> 00:03:09,690 fraud in the November 3rd, 2020 presidential. 42 00:03:09,690 --> 00:03:13,890 Election in Michigan. Rudolph Giuliani joined the 43 00:03:13,890 --> 00:03:17,970 meeting by telephone. This meeting was, and I'm 44 00:03:17,970 --> 00:03:24,250 quoting now, an overt act in furtherance of the conspiracy to 45 00:03:24,250 --> 00:03:31,170 overturn the 2020. Election 161 of these acts are 46 00:03:31,170 --> 00:03:38,070 listed here in the 41 counts, all of them racketeering 47 00:03:38,070 --> 00:03:40,110 charges. Each and every one of them, and 48 00:03:40,110 --> 00:03:45,750 each each of the individuals charged are charged with 49 00:03:46,030 --> 00:03:52,030 racketeering, so. This this is way beyond. 50 00:03:52,470 --> 00:03:56,270 What the federal government was willing to charge and the 51 00:03:56,910 --> 00:04:00,670 District Attorney just came out along with what look like close 52 00:04:00,670 --> 00:04:04,380 to a dozen prosecutors. And they look like they mean 53 00:04:04,380 --> 00:04:06,500 business. I mean, this was a stunning 54 00:04:07,180 --> 00:04:10,260 thing to just witness live on television. 55 00:04:10,820 --> 00:04:13,900 I'm sure a number of you are probably had already gone to bed 56 00:04:14,300 --> 00:04:18,380 when you're listening to me now. On Tuesday morning if you have a 57 00:04:18,380 --> 00:04:22,940 chance to watch any of this, it's it's pretty stunning. 58 00:04:24,060 --> 00:04:29,220 And the the breadth of this, the scope of the various people 59 00:04:29,380 --> 00:04:32,500 charged in this indictment. And the people that are not 60 00:04:32,500 --> 00:04:35,500 charged in the state of Georgia but are mentioned in 61 00:04:35,500 --> 00:04:37,740 Pennsylvania in. Arizona. 62 00:04:38,580 --> 00:04:42,140 In Michigan, you know the federal special. 63 00:04:42,140 --> 00:04:45,420 Prosecutor Jack Smith indicted just Trump. 64 00:04:46,500 --> 00:04:51,980 And you know, essentially on four different counts you're 65 00:04:51,980 --> 00:04:55,260 going to hear. A lot of criticism, probably. 66 00:04:55,940 --> 00:05:00,420 Of the Atlanta DA who wasn't going to leave anything out of 67 00:05:00,420 --> 00:05:04,770 this, any finding that she and the grand jury found. 68 00:05:04,770 --> 00:05:08,330 And it was the grand jury that voted on this indictment. 69 00:05:08,850 --> 00:05:14,250 Earlier on Monday, anything that broke a law, any person that 70 00:05:14,250 --> 00:05:19,210 broke a law, any any lying, forgery. 71 00:05:19,650 --> 00:05:23,490 Is in here. It goes down the whole list if 72 00:05:23,490 --> 00:05:27,770 you committed a criminal act. You are being charged with this. 73 00:05:27,890 --> 00:05:34,120 In the effort, the organized crime effort to overturn the 74 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,200 2020. Election It's look to hear it. 75 00:05:37,280 --> 00:05:42,800 Act 28 here in the indictment is the phone call from Trump to the 76 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:47,320 Secretary of State in Georgia, essentially telling him. 77 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:49,240 That he wanted him to stuff the ballot. 78 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:54,840 Box with 11,780 votes, which would then put Trump as the 79 00:05:54,840 --> 00:06:03,330 winner of Georgia. You know, we've never. 80 00:06:03,330 --> 00:06:07,810 Seen anything like this in the history of this country? 81 00:06:10,210 --> 00:06:14,210 And this is a state court proceeding, so there's no 82 00:06:14,210 --> 00:06:17,170 pardoning here. No president is going to be able 83 00:06:17,730 --> 00:06:20,610 to pardon Trump if he's convicted. 84 00:06:21,530 --> 00:06:26,770 Of the state charges, the state of Georgia their laws do not 85 00:06:26,770 --> 00:06:29,000 allow. The Governor of Georgia. 86 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:34,080 The Republican governor of Georgia to pardon Trump should 87 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:41,520 he be convicted, so oh, and cameras will be allowed in the 88 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,720 courtroom. So there is transparency and we 89 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:48,080 can see the whole thing. They're already talking a lot. 90 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:52,120 About how she made the comment or she was asked are you going 91 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,040 to try all nineteen of these at the same time? 92 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:57,400 And she just said yes and then and then left the podium. 93 00:06:58,100 --> 00:07:01,300 And they're all right now. I'm So by the time you wake up 94 00:07:01,300 --> 00:07:04,660 and you listen to this, they're they're all, everybody's got 95 00:07:04,660 --> 00:07:08,420 their hair in a bunch. With the sort of how can you 96 00:07:08,420 --> 00:07:10,620 have 19 people on trial at the same time? 97 00:07:10,620 --> 00:07:13,620 I don't think one of the lawyers pointed out she meant that 98 00:07:13,740 --> 00:07:15,820 they're all being indicted at the same time. 99 00:07:16,180 --> 00:07:20,260 Yes, they're all going to face the music here at the same time, 100 00:07:20,260 --> 00:07:24,460 but there's not going to be 19 chairs with another 38 chairs 101 00:07:24,460 --> 00:07:26,540 for the lawyers all at one table. 102 00:07:27,430 --> 00:07:29,950 But she's making it very clear that she's not messing around. 103 00:07:30,510 --> 00:07:38,510 I have to tell you, this was so. Refreshing to hear someone from 104 00:07:38,510 --> 00:07:48,550 law enforcement finally Not equivocate, not dance around the 105 00:07:48,550 --> 00:07:56,510 Bush, not pull any punches, but to say outright. 106 00:07:57,110 --> 00:08:01,390 Forthrightly crimes have been committed. 107 00:08:03,110 --> 00:08:05,830 They were done in an organized conspiracy. 108 00:08:06,510 --> 00:08:11,310 There was an enterprise formed not only with these 19 109 00:08:11,310 --> 00:08:16,550 individuals, Trump and the. 18 here of his coconspirators, but 110 00:08:16,550 --> 00:08:22,830 there's also another 30 unindicted coconspirators who 111 00:08:22,830 --> 00:08:25,140 are not mentioned. But it says here in the 112 00:08:25,140 --> 00:08:28,340 indictment that the grand jury knows the names of these 113 00:08:28,340 --> 00:08:33,179 individuals and they may become. Public here at a later date. 114 00:08:34,620 --> 00:08:39,900 So if there's thirty more plus the 9:00, that's 4949. 115 00:08:39,900 --> 00:08:50,180 At least 49 did this together. To try to overturn, overthrow 116 00:08:50,180 --> 00:08:56,540 our election in 2020 and they didn't get away with it. 117 00:08:59,020 --> 00:09:02,460 But the chilling part of this is if you stop and think what? 118 00:09:02,460 --> 00:09:07,260 If they had, what if Trump were smarter? 119 00:09:07,860 --> 00:09:11,340 What if Giuliani knew what the hell he was doing? 120 00:09:13,340 --> 00:09:18,380 The state of affairs that we would be in right now, our 121 00:09:18,380 --> 00:09:25,400 democracy, whether it would still even exist in the form 122 00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:34,280 that we had hoped that we were functioning as, Oh my God, and 123 00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:37,120 now. Finally this D A and my friends, 124 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:41,440 we have gone through what how many investigations in Congress? 125 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:44,400 2 impeachments? The Mueller And remember that 126 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:48,120 the Mueller investigation. Oh, the Mueller. 127 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:52,000 He's really going to really sort this out and go for it. 128 00:09:52,350 --> 00:09:54,030 How many times have we had to listen to this? 129 00:09:55,030 --> 00:10:00,870 Twice impeached and neither time the Senate would vote to convict 130 00:10:00,870 --> 00:10:05,470 him and remove him. From the White House, it has 131 00:10:05,470 --> 00:10:08,750 really been frustrating to the point where nobody wants to 132 00:10:08,750 --> 00:10:11,830 watch the news anymore. Sick of hearing about Trump. 133 00:10:12,270 --> 00:10:15,590 One thing after another. And now this is the 4th 134 00:10:15,590 --> 00:10:20,040 indictment. He's been indicted in the state 135 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,200 of New York with the hush money situation. 136 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:29,560 He's been indicted in Florida for stealing top secret federal 137 00:10:29,560 --> 00:10:33,720 documents and then when asked to return them, not returning them 138 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:37,240 and lying and trying to hide and cover up. 139 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:41,920 That's the Florida indictment, then the indictment in DC, the 140 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:45,160 big indictment for trying to overthrow the election on 141 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:49,740 January 6th. And the all the weeks leading up 142 00:10:49,740 --> 00:10:52,580 to that. Everything that he and Giuliani 143 00:10:52,580 --> 00:10:58,820 and the and the Enterprise did. And then finally this evening, 144 00:10:59,140 --> 00:11:01,900 earlier this evening, the indictment. 145 00:11:01,900 --> 00:11:09,820 In Georgia, 41 counts 19 coconspirators Trump. 146 00:11:09,820 --> 00:11:13,460 And eighteen others. Many of them are those fake 147 00:11:13,460 --> 00:11:17,430 electors and other Republican officials in the. 148 00:11:17,590 --> 00:11:28,070 State of Georgia You know I I to describe how I'm. 149 00:11:28,070 --> 00:11:32,230 Feeling right now. I'm grateful for this DA. 150 00:11:33,230 --> 00:11:37,150 You should watch some of her. Press conference that she held 151 00:11:38,750 --> 00:11:41,910 this is not. Like these other D A's that 152 00:11:41,910 --> 00:11:45,590 we've had to watch. And I know they've all been, 153 00:11:46,290 --> 00:11:49,330 they've all tried to do their. But they're so careful and they 154 00:11:49,330 --> 00:11:51,890 want to you know, yeah, I get it. 155 00:11:52,730 --> 00:11:59,250 But you know if you're in a. Fight with an individual. 156 00:12:00,210 --> 00:12:05,730 And his enterprise, his organized crime enterprise to 157 00:12:05,730 --> 00:12:12,010 destroy this country, to overthrow a government, to 158 00:12:12,010 --> 00:12:23,120 overthrow an election, you need, we need, the people need on our 159 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:27,760 side.
