What is the significance of the no-kings rally in American history?
Now, there's actually nothing more American than a no-kings rally, if you think about it, because this country was born out of the rejection of the monarchy, the rejection of a country, frankly, that is ruled by one man as opposed to a country of laws. Like, the Declaration of Independence in this country was not just about taxation, it was also about principle. And that is what the no-kings rally harkens back to.
Let me just be clear. as a fellow Republican, this is not a hate America rally. This is a rally to deal with the fact that Republicans want to create a king, a kingship in Donald Trump. And I reject it as a lot of Americans do. So let's be clear on the crap that you're laying out there because you can... wordsmithing and talking all you want, folks. But the reality remains that this rally this weekend is because of what this president is doing and what this president has done to fellow citizens, which as a member of Congress, you think you'd give a damn about.
bible believing christians for generations for centuries uh is now being twisted for political means well i hate to tell you but it kind of always has been going back to the time when the roman empire decided to take this peaceful uh missionary of of a jewish faith healer and use it to be an imperial religion that waged war on pagans and jews and muslims in the crusades and
christianity has been used to justify all kinds of authoritarian atrocities and at the same time it's always always been the christ followers who have pushed back against the authoritarian christians when you saw the crusades you had saint francis of assisi quitting the battle and preaching peace when you saw the doctrine of discovery in columbus massacring the Taino people. It was Bartolomeo de las Casas, the priest on his final voyage, who protest, the first act of protest by a white person in this hemisphere against the treatment of indigenous people when Christianity propped up slavery. It was the Christ followers like Frederick Douglass and the Quakers and Harriet Tubman.
I mean, this goes through segregation, through homophobia, through labor rights. You had Dorothy Day and Catholic charities fighting for an end to child labor and, well, weekend.
Like millions, I was raised believing Christianity was about the stuff Jesus talked about. Service, humility, putting the last first, fighting for the marginalized, forgive your enemies, turn the other cheek. He wasn't really about total right-wing domination of culture and politics and the local school board. Not a big guy about power. So many millions feel they've grown up to see this movement of love hijacked by a mean tax-free clique that is not about the teachings of Jesus, but it's about right-wing Christian domination of culture, right-wing power, not about the commandments of Christ. If there's rules in the department about how to bring a case,
follow those rules. You can't say, I want this outcome, let me throw the rules out. That's why, frankly, you see all these conflicts between the career apolitical prosecutors I worked with. I get very concerned when I see how easy it is to demonize these people for political ends, when these are the very sort of people I think we should be celebrating. The people on my special counsel team were like that. The idea that politics played a role in who worked on that case or who got chosen is ludicrous.
Joyce, I know he's choosing his words carefully, but is Jack Smith warning us about what the DOJ is currently being turned into?
Well, look, I think everybody is issuing that warning this week from all different fronts. Chris Christie did it earlier today. It's coming from all sides of the political arena. But Jack Smith, I think, is making the point that we would expect to hear from a career prosecutor. And what he's saying is you may not believe it in this day and age, but there are prosecutors at the Justice Department who don't care about politics. These are people of integrity. They work cases based on only on the facts and the law.
