Welcome, everybody. Hope you had a good weekend. You know, sometimes Republicans end up being right. And when they're right, I will be the first to admit it. But sometimes these MAGA Republicans are right, not for the reason they claim to be. Let me explain. The MAGA right has been claiming that it is absolute chaos and anarchy in the streets of the United States of America. And they are finally kind of correct. If you look this weekend and we're going to look at some of the videos, it was absolute chaos. It was lawlessness on the streets of many American cities. But it wasn't because of immigrants. It wasn't because of migrants just working to feed their families. It wasn't because of on Trifa. It wasn't Black Lives Matter.
It was not Marxists. It wasn't socialists or communists or whatever. It was a result of Donald Trump's goons, Trump's ice, Trump's deportation forces. Trump's actions are what have finally gotten us to the very chaos and lawlessness on the streets. that they originally said were the reason for doing any of this stuff in the first place. I'm going to give you some examples. There are important historical precedents. There is context that is relevant to this idea of generating chaos to sub to justify subsequent crackdowns. You know the playbook. If you've heard Ruth Ben-Ghiat talk to us about it on the show, if you've heard an apple bomb, talk to us about it on the show. We know the playbook. And they are finally getting the very chaos they claim they were trying to fix.
Here are and some of this stuff is difficult to watch. I'm going to be very upfront with you about that. This isn't a trigger warning. It's just like this is really horrible, sickening stuff. Here is Trump's ice slamming an unarmed American citizen to the ground. This one took place near the corner of West 37th and South Kedzie in the Brighton Park neighborhood of Chicago.
Take a look at this. All right.
So body slamming, et cetera, et cetera. Megapatamians and Megadonians will defend this one by saying, well, the guy did swear. Oh, my goodness. Swearing. Can you imagine from the free speech? Absolutist. This guy swore. And also once he got body slammed, he didn't go limp. So he was resisting. Therefore, he deserves all of it. Absolute chaos on the streets of Chicago. Thanks to Trump's goons. We have another video. of immigration agents run off and a man was actually saved from one of these kidnapping abductions. This was on the area of 63rd and Costner Avenue in Chicago. We're going to just play a little bit of this. They spend minutes trying to take this guy. Ultimately, a crowd swarms and the agents run off and ultimately drive off.
But this is not This is not the way this country is supposed to function. This is not the way law enforcement is supposed to function. All right. So now they've got a guy. Some of their masks are slipping literally and figuratively.
They've got a guy.
All right. And so as we will scrub through here and you will see they continue trying to take this guy. More individuals join. They continue. They continue. They continue. It starts to attract the attention of bystanders. And as you can see, this continues and continues and continues. And ultimately, what you will see here as they have the guy sort of pinned is that ultimately they run off.
Let him go!
All right. So ultimately they let this guy go. The crowd presumably just getting too big. Agents starting to think this could get out of control. Let's get out of here without this guy. Now, I'm the first to acknowledge to you that a lot of these individuals are doing what in the context of law, order and due process would be considered resisting arrest. But the issue is that many of them are being denied due process at the get go. So you all know that I am not someone that is a scofflaw by nature. I don't go around saying break the law, do this, that and the other thing. We should work within the legal system. You all know that. But what we have here is a system that is fundamentally outside of that already.
We have a system that is denying people due process.
