We have partnered with move on. We are the exclusive distribution partners for an event called the people's state of the union. Now, dozens and dozens of members of the house of representatives and senators will be boycotting the state of the union. fairly unprecedented in these types of numbers, and they will be attending our event at the Midas Touch Network.

We will have a stage and an area set up outside of the Capitol building. We're calling it the People's State of the Union. And last night, Democratic Senator Adam Schiff announced that he will be indeed boycotting Trump's State of the Union. And instead, Senator Schiff will be attending the Midas Touch Network's State of the Union, the People's State of the Union, where he will be one of our featured speakers. Now, MAGA has been attacking the Midas Touch Network, they've been attacking Senator Schiff, and they've been attacking me and my brothers personally as a result of this boycott, but It's what is just. It is what is needed right now. By the way, look how close we are to 6 million subscribers.
Ben Meiselas 1:35
Help us get to 6 million subscribers today by subscribing right now. Now I want to show you what Senator Schiff said when he made the big announcement last night that he is boycotting the State of the Union and he will be speaking at the Midas Touch Network's People's State of the Union. Let's play this clip right here of Senator Schiff.
Adam Schiff 1:55
Donald Trump is violating the law and Constitution. He is ignoring court orders. He has weaponized the Justice Department to go after his enemies. He is letting loose ICE troops in our streets that are getting people killed. I will not be attending the State of the Union. I've never missed one. I have always gone both to inaugurations and to States of the Union, but we cannot treat this as normal. This is not business as usual. I will not give him the audience he craves for the lies that he tells. I'll be outside the Capitol with Midas Touch and move on for the People's State of the Union, 8 p.m. Eastern Time on Tuesday.

Who are the key politicians participating in the People's State of the Union?

Ben Meiselas 2:33
Powerful indeed. Here is a list of some of the other speakers. Everybody from Senator Merkley to Markey to Senator Murphy to Senator Tina Smith, Senator Van Hollen, Congresswoman Ansari to Ballant. We've got Maxwell Frost and Kassar. We've got Legere Fernandez. We've got Jim Himes, the ranking member of the Intelligence Committee. Sarah Jacobs, Jayapal. The list keeps going on and on. You can check out the list there. Speaking about Democratic Congresswoman Sarah Jacobs, she went on corporate news. She was on CNN, and she was asked by the host, Alex Michelson, why she is not going to be attending, and she will be attending the Midas Touch network event. Here's what she had to say. Let's play this clip.

State of the Union is Tuesday night. Some Democrats are choosing not to attend.
Sarah Jacobs 3:24
Are you going to go?
Unknown 3:25
I don't plan on attending, no.
Sarah Jacobs 3:27
Why is that? I mean, isn't that kind of disrespectful to the institution of the presidency and the institution of Congress?
Unknown 3:34
I mean, I think what's disrespectful to the institution of Congress is the fact that this president and this administration do not abide by congressionally passed laws and statutes, completely have zero care or respect for the rule of law, literally are like... Going against court orders, that's what's disrespectful. I'm not going to sit there and listen to Donald Trump lie and try and say the economy is doing well when everyone I know in San Diego can barely get by. I'm not going to sit there and listen to him say they're going after criminals when we know the majority of people they're going after have no criminal record and they're killing U.S. citizens without any accountability.

What did Senator Schiff say about boycotting the State of the Union?

Sarah Jacobs 4:11
I'll know, we'll see.
Ben Meiselas 4:13
We'll see what happens in terms of the killing of the citizens and we'll see on that front.
