Chapter 1: What are the implications of the general strike in Minnesota?

0.031 - 22.798 Ben Meiselas

Donald Trump is losing it as he has returned to Washington DC and a general strike has been initiated in the great state of Minnesota and a general strike is spreading across the United States. We haven't seen a general strike of this scale for about 70 years or so.

0

22.778 - 50.592 Ben Meiselas

And the hope is that this becomes the biggest general strike in the history of the United States in solidarity with the pro-democracy forces who want to stop this fascism, these ICE and Border Patrol, Gestapo invasion, these Trump attacks on the workers. And so whether you're looking right now in Minneapolis and St. Paul, by the way, where it's like negative 16 degrees Fahrenheit,

0

50.572 - 73.659 Ben Meiselas

And the people are out there protesting the ICE regime, calling in sick, engaging in this general strike. Or we should turn our attention to what's taking place in New York City. Solidarity with the nurses there, 15,000. nurses out there every day. They've been there nine plus days already. We've seen the New York City Mayor Zoran Mamdani.

0

73.679 - 95.087 Ben Meiselas

We've seen Senator Bernie Sanders show solidarity with those striking nurses. And all they're saying is we want a fair wage for the job that we're doing. You have these hospital executives and CEOs making 20, 30 million dollars a year, and they can't even provide the most basics. for nurses who were on the front lines.

0

95.348 - 111.679 Ben Meiselas

And then you've got the workers in Minnesota saying, there's lots of Fortune 500 companies in this state and you want to treat us like this Trump regime? You just think we're cogs in your wheel where you're going to take our money, what, put it in Qatari bank accounts?

111.659 - 133.043 Ben Meiselas

to build yourself golden arches and golden ballrooms i mean look what donald trump was posting this morning more photos of golden arches that he wants to build in washington dc while he rips away the health care of tens of millions of americans not extending the affordable care act subsidies continuing to cover up

133.023 - 147.373 Ben Meiselas

a child sex trafficking ring as he continues to make it more difficult for people to afford their rent or purchase a home. This is what he's posting, renderings of golden arches with AI slop.

Chapter 2: How is Trump's cognitive decline affecting his political stance?

147.393 - 154.407 Ben Meiselas

We don't want golden arches, Donald. The American people just want to be able to live a life with dignity

0

154.387 - 184.174 Ben Meiselas

to support our families and not be invaded by ice and border patrol gestapo it's pretty damn freaking simple donald our friends over at migrant insider are covering uh the uh general strike right now take a look at this map right here you see other locations where this general strike is taking place and you know we've seen those massive no kings protests of course i think those no kings protests get bigger and bigger and bigger

0

184.154 - 209.977 Ben Meiselas

But I think it's time that we start, I think it was well past time, that we start talking about a general strike and we start talking about what else can we, the people, do in order to stand up to this regime and make sure they feel our power as they try to hoist authoritarianism across this nation in the demented image of the dictator with no clothes, Donald Trump.

0

209.997 - 237.183 Ben Meiselas

So again, solidarity with the nurses in New York City also and everybody. involved in this general strike. Now, Donald Trump ranting and raving like a lunatic this morning as well, making social media posts like this. Record cold wave expected to hit 40 states. Rarely seen anything like it before. Could the environmental insurrectionists please explain whatever happened to global warming?

0

237.623 - 255.916 Ben Meiselas

Well, you see, Donald, first off, you're just calling everybody insurrectionist these days. And you know how you want to conquer Greenland and annex it and take it over? And you know how you say, well, it's because there's a lot of melting of the ice in the North Pole area and there's going to be lots of new shipping routes around Greenland.

256.236 - 278.575 Ben Meiselas

Do you realize that when you say that you're recognizing the impact of global warming right there and that that impact matters? is causing severe and catastrophic weather issues in the United States as well. Just because it is cold doesn't mean that global warming doesn't exist. But again, Donald Trump is a demented idiot and he should be nowhere near the Oval Office.

278.635 - 301.295 Ben Meiselas

But thanks to this MAGA infrastructure of individuals who also think it's a good idea to cover up child sex trafficking rings, you have these demented individuals who are leading the United States. And by the way, Donald Trump's trip to Davos, we know how humiliating it was, but when he left and he trashed the United Kingdom, you know the uproar in the UK right now?

301.475 - 321.638 Ben Meiselas

Our UK followers know, and Midas Touch stands in solidarity with the UK. You know, we have Midas Canada. I was saying that we're going to do Midas Australia next, but I think we should do Midas UK and definitely Midas Europe immediately as well, because Donald Trump said that our NATO allies didn't help us at all in any war.

321.618 - 348.604 Ben Meiselas

they never made any sacrifice for the united states in afghanistan so you know how donald trump calls american troops who die suckers and losers donald trump called the uk soldiers over 400 who died in afghanistan suckers and losers he called the danish troops who died in afghanistan suckers and losers canadian french i could go on europe nato sent so many soldiers to fight alongside the united states of america

Chapter 3: What criticisms are made about Trump's actions during his Davos trip?

378.925 - 401.156 Ben Meiselas

Or just setting aside the political conventions of liberal and conservative or whatever. You either stand up to Donald Trump right now or you kiss the gangster ring and you will lose in your states unless your country. Our state wants to become a Putin bootlicker, which is what Donald Trump is. By the way, this morning, you have Steve Witkoff and you have Jared Kushner bootlicking.

0

401.417 - 420.348 Ben Meiselas

They're in Russia. They're meeting with Vladimir Putin, as Putin now has said that he's joining Donald Trump's Board of Peace, which is a board of authoritarians, which no member from NATO is on. No democracies are a part of it. It's like Trump, Uzbekistan, Belarus with Lukashenko, Orban's Hungary, and Putin.

0

420.368 - 442.639 Ben Meiselas

But Putin's like, I will give you billions of dollars for your board, Donald, but you just need to unfreeze my funds, which are not your funds, that I just unfreeze the funds from Russia that were frozen because of the invasion of Ukraine. And then I'll give you billions of dollars. to that Qatari bank account of yours, Donald, and we could all rant about how elections are fraudulent.

0

442.879 - 465.566 Ben Meiselas

Come on, Donald. That's what Putin's saying right now. And then Donald goes, what a great trip to Davos it was. So many things accomplished, including the framework of a deal with NATO on Greenland. Also, the Board of Peace, wow, make America great again. There's no framework of a deal with Denmark on Greenland. The premier of Greenland, here's what he had to say.

0

465.927 - 474.18 Ben Meiselas

He says, no one even knows what you're talking about. You've made this up. There's no aspect of that said true. Here's what the premier of Greenland says. Let's play this clip.

474.2 - 497.921 Unknown

First of all, nobody else than Greenland and the Kingdom of Denmark have the mandate to make deals or agreements about Greenland and the Kingdom of Denmark without us. That's not gonna happen. In terms of the deal there's been talking about, I don't know what's concrete in that deal. Let's face it, after a night with drinks, I don't bounce back the next day like I used to.

498.261 - 519.032 Unknown

I have to make a choice. I can either have a great night or a great next day. That is until I found pre-alcohol. ZBiotics pre-alcohol probiotic drink is the world's first genetically engineered probiotic. It was invented by PhD scientists to tackle rough mornings after drinking. Here's how it works. When you drink, alcohol gets converted into a toxic byproduct in the gut.

519.052 - 539.024 Unknown

It's a buildup of this byproduct, not dehydration, that's to blame for rough days after drinking. Pre-alcohol produces an enzyme to break this byproduct down. Just remember to make pre-alcohol your first drink of the night, drink responsibly, and you'll feel your best tomorrow. Every time I have pre-alcohol before drinks, I notice a difference the next day.

539.406 - 544.619 Unknown

Even after a night out, I can confidently plan on having a great next day without worrying. Ready to try it?

567.335 - 591.228 Ben Meiselas

And then more ranting and raving by Donald Trump. Here he goes, in Pennsylvania during the 2020 election, there was over 400,000 election errors alone, direct switches of votes from one candidate to another. And folks, he's reposting account called The Skiff, some QAnon account. He's still whining about losing the 2020 election. All of these cases were litigated in court.

0

591.248 - 596.295 Ben Meiselas

You lost, and lots of your lawyers lost their licenses because they're making things up.

0

596.275 - 615.176 Ben Meiselas

And our Supreme Court, unlike the Brazilian Supreme Court, which threw their insurrectionist president Bolsonaro into prison for 20 plus years, our Supreme Court in the United States is freaking pathetic and does not represent the people, which is why there needs to be serious Supreme Court reform in our country. And they gave Trump absolute immunity.

0

615.256 - 626.791 Ben Meiselas

In Brazil, insurrectionist president imprisoned essentially for the rest of his adult life, 20 plus years. In the United States, absolute immunity. That's why we have a broken system that we need to rebuild.

627.152 - 646.924 Ben Meiselas

Speaking of that broken system, that fascist system right here, the Trump regime held a press conference today about kidnapping Liam Conejo Ramos, the five-year-old who was wearing that blue teddy hat. who was kidnapped and then used as bait to lure out his father. And then both were sent to concentration camps in El Paso, Texas.

647.325 - 665.01 Ben Meiselas

Well, Greg Bovino, Donald Trump's head of border, the head of the border patrol, held a press conference today. And he said, Liam's doing great. He goes, Liam, it's like the best thing for him. He's in the least restrictive setting. I don't think it gets any better than that.

665.108 - 687.208 Ben Meiselas

That's what Trump's Nazis, SS, border patrol, call them with Gestapo, because in my opinion, they engage in tactics like that. Kidnapping children, in my opinion, killing people, in my opinion, supporting, aiding and abetting the killing of people. 30 people died in detention centers last year or more. Seven or eight have already died this year. Here's what Greg Bovino says about Liam.

687.228 - 688.269 Ben Meiselas

He goes, it's doing great.

Chapter 5: What reactions did Trump face for his comments on NATO allies?

724.371 - 725.792 Ben Meiselas

Here, play this clip.

0

725.812 - 746.511 Unknown

This little boy was abandoned by his own father. His own father was being approached by ICE agents when he darted, ran, and abandoned the child. Our law enforcement, in these frigid temperatures, stayed with the child, tried to bring him into custody with the mother, who actually would not take the child into custody, which is so sad, so horrific.

0

746.851 - 751.495 Unknown

Our law enforcement officers actually were taking care of the child, brought him to McDonald's,

0

751.475 - 767.514 Ben Meiselas

Another ICE and Border Patrol person was holding this press conference and was asked, so does the father of Liam have a criminal record? Was there crimes that were committed here? Well, we don't know. We don't know the answer, is what he says. Play this clip.

0

767.534 - 788.834 Unknown

Does the father actually have a criminal record? And if so, what charges was he arrested on? I will have to get back to you with any of this in-depth criminal history, but he was in the United States illegally, and I believe he'd been ordered removed. I'm from the AP. Your press people do have my contact information. And what's the son's legal status and immigration history?

788.854 - 803.47 Unknown

The family came across as a family unit illegally a few years back. I can't get the date off the top of my head. Can you tell us anything about Issa's interactions with her mother as well as her legal status and immigration history? We have not encountered the mother as of this time.

807.162 - 829.728 Ben Meiselas

And then you have J.D. Vance, this evil shapeshifter who's changed his identities multiple times throughout his life, says, you know what? I got to hand it to all, you know, he calls the people who are striking and he calls the people who are out there protesting against ICE sex traffickers, because that's what authoritarians do. You're a domestic terrorist, you're sex traffickers.

830.168 - 853.213 Ben Meiselas

That's the language that's being used by this evil regime. And J.D. Vance is like, I got to hand it to them. It's very cold out there. And they're committed to this bit. You know, you got all of these sex offender criminal aliens are standing outside. You're calling the peaceful protesters in Minnesota, from Minneapolis and St. Paul and other areas, criminal alien sex offenders?

853.774 - 856.997 Ben Meiselas

The same way they call anybody who disagrees with them domestic terrorists.

Chapter 6: How does Trump’s rhetoric impact international relations?

906.017 - 910.204 Unknown

We love our neighbors. We love our community. And go home.
