Video transcript 250th anniversary, you’ve heard a lot about this of our founding in Philadelphia, the Continental Congress, the Second Continental Congress met and they came up with a declaration, the Declaration of Independence. What is this all about? You know, we celebrate it. What is it all about? Let me ask you a question. If our country was about to be defeated by a communist regime, would you be concerned about that? I would. I think we all would. We have an entire military buildup to try and ensure that that doesn’t happen. Would you be concerned if some Islamist regime, either the Iranian regime or some other regime was seeking to destroy us, both directly with nuclear missiles and infiltrate our country with terrorists and so forth? Of course you would be concerned. I would be concerned. What if I told you that is exactly what’s happening right now in the United States? The enemy within and these Marxist communists and these Islamists. What if I were to tell you in our 250th anniversary of the founding of our nation, they believe they’re on the precipice of a grand victory. Where they intend to take over the House of Representatives, which they hate, and the United States Senate, which they want to abolish, and to control the Supreme Court, which they want to pack and destroy its independence and create a Democrat Party Politburo, and change the election procedures, get rid of the Electoral College and only 12 to 14 blue states and really blue metropolitan areas are heard when it comes to national elections. Three-fourths of the states and many of you, you may vote, but it won’t matter. What if I were to tell you that they want to deconstruct the Constitution in order to ram through their agenda? They want to eliminate the filibuster in the Senate, which kind of destroys the whole purpose of the Senate, doesn’t it? And turn it into one big majority rule, single vote, a single election where they can change the nation forever and destroy our constitutional republic. Do you realize that’s what’s on the ballot? Do you realize that is what’s on the ballot in November? Now, let me be very clear about something. If you read these Washington DC pundits and operators and listen to some of the podcasts, they will tell you about the incompetence of the Republican Party. They will tell you about the incompetence of the messaging and so forth and so on. I’m not here to discuss that. I’m here to discuss us. We the people, you Mr. and Mrs. America. This constitutional system was set up to represent you and me. It’s the consent of the governed. It’s right there in the Declaration of Independence as well. That’s why we had a revolution, among other reasons. And so I want to talk about this with you. Part of the problem we have is that Marxism comes down to a skinny little book like this, even though Marx wrote many things with Engels and so forth. It comes down to the little Communist Manifesto, which was written by Marx and Engels in plain English, plain German, plain Italian, and every other language they can think up to promote what? A civilizational revolution. Not a nation-state revolution, a global revolution. Just like this guy, the Ayatollah Khomeini. They’re not interested in Iran only. This is a civilizational revolution. They want to conquer the entire world. They want to conquer the entire world. And they’re busy conquering many, many areas of the world, especially Europe right now. But Europe is not the United States of America. Do we know why Europe is not the United States of America? Because of how this nation was established and the basis for its founding. Do you know what the basis for the nation’s founding is? We talk about the Judeo-Christian belief system. That’s this, the Holy Scripture. It’s true. In fact, every one of the prominent founders, every single one of them, who was in that Second Continental Congress in Philadelphia, they spoke about what? The Hebrew Bible. What’s the Hebrew Bible? For Christians, that would be the Old Testament. For Jews, that would be the Torah. The Hebrew Bible. Madison spent a year at what is now Princeton studying, even memorizing the Hebrew Bible. Adams, John Adams references the Hebrew Bible over and over and over again. Jefferson the same. Washington the same. Why did they do that? Why did they do that? If you read the New Testament, there’s constant references to the Old Testament. There’s constant references to what we call today Israel and the Holy Land. There’s constant references, of course, to Jesus, who was Jewish, the apostles, who were Jewish, the prophets, who were Jewish. The Christian majority, and let me be clear, at America’s founding, the Christian majority was the overwhelming, overwhelming faith, overwhelming faith of the colonists and the founders. And but for the Christian majority, and but for those Christian founders, who were in Philadelphia at the Second Continental Congress, who were in Philadelphia at the Constitutional Convention, what we talk about, the Judeo-Christian values and belief systems, would never have been established as the basis for the founding of the United States of America. And there was one other element, the Enlightenment. The Enlightenment. Now, how do we know that the Enlightenment played such a big part as well? No other than Thomas Jefferson, in a letter to Henry Lee in 1825, neither aiming at originality of principle, he’s talking about the Declaration, or a sentiment, nor yet copied from any particular and previous writing. It was intended, the Declaration, to be an expression of the American mind and to give to that expression the proper tone and spirit called for by the occasion. All its authority rested then on the harmonizing sentiments of the day, whether expressed in conversation, in letters, printed essays, or the elementary books of public right, as Aristotle, Cicero, Locke, Sydney, etc. Locke, Second Treatise on Government, Montesquieu, The Spirit of Laws. He was the most important of the Enlightenment philosophers during the constitutional period. Cicero, who’d been a senator in Rome, and he was killed for his thoughts, daring to challenge the emperor. We have Sydney. Ever hear of him? This book, Discourses, was only published after he was hanged by the king who knew he was writing such a book. Aristotle, The Complete Works of Aristotle, right here. I know Most people don’t do what I do. I’m kind of a nerd about this stuff. And that’s part of the problem. That’s part of the problem. We’re up against this, The Communist Manifesto, with a few phrases. You know, a few slogans. Healthcare for all, workers’ paradise, equality, on and on and on. Tyranny. Totalitarianism. That’s what this is all about. That’s what Khomeini and Islamism is all about. This, this from the Hebrew Bible, from the Bible period, from these great thinkers of the Enlightenment, from these great men even before the Enlightenment, talking about liberty and individualism, representative government, and private property rights. That’s what America is founded on. That’s what America is all about. So, if you believe in cultural communism, and the Democrat Party now believes in that. If you believe in economic socialism, and the Democrat Party now believes in that. If you believe in deconstructing our constitutional system where power checks power, where power is diversified, so the mob can’t take control and a dictator or an oligarchy of sorts can’t take control, that’s the Democrat Party. That’s seeks to deconstruct it. All the genius, all the history, all the wars, all that went before this election in November to create this tremendous society, this tremendous culture. That’s right. All of it is at stake right now over the price of a gallon of gasoline. Over the price of a gallon of diesel fuel. It’s just a dollar too much, people are saying. And government is not responding to me the way I want it to respond. It’s not giving me what I want and what I demand. And jealousies are created. Successful people, the more successful, the more they’re supposed to be hated. Marx. The more wealth we create, apparently, it’s never enough. It’s incredible that this fantastic society, this fantastic culture, this fantastic representative republic, humanity’s never seen anything like it. Nothing as humane as this country has ever existed anywhere since the beginning of mankind. One election, this November, can change the course of human history. I am not overstating it. I started the program by saying, what if we were threatened or attacked by a communist regime? We’d all say, no, no, we got to do something about this. Or an Islamist country. No, no, no, we have to do something about this. Well, what if the enemy is within? What do we the people do about this? Well, we only have one, one recourse, to vote. The consent of the governed. Let me ask you something. All you out there, does Mondami represent your views? Does Al -Sayyid represent your views? Do these Islamist imams who talk about overthrowing our country and destroying our faith and forcing us to adhere to their faith, do they represent your views? Do they? Tell me, does Bernie Sanders, a communist, does he represent your views? Do these people who talk about deconstructing the Constitution, attacking capitalism, do they represent your views? It’s a government by the consent of the governed. If we don’t vote and in bigger numbers than those who support communism and Islamism, than those who seek to deconstruct our Constitution, than those who seek to destroy our market, commerce, capitalist system and replace it with a socialist, top-down, redistributive system, then they win. And the thing about them is, they don’t need multiple elections to institute what they want to institute, just one. Just one. We’ve seen it all over the world. You see, to understand the Democrat Party, you need to understand it’s always been a party about power, never a party about liberty, never a party about representative government, never a party about Americanism. Can you imagine a political party that stood for slavery for decades? That was the party of the Confederacy? Can you imagine a political party, the Democrat Party, that supported segregation and separate but equal for more than half a century after the Civil War? Can you imagine a political party that supported the Klan and lynchings? Oh, yes. Lynchings of black people. In 1940, the so-called great Franklin Roosevelt received a bill from Congress to outlaw nationwide lynchings. And he wouldn’t sign it. The greatest Democrat president ever, right? Because he was afraid he would lose votes in one or two Southern states. He wouldn’t sign it. Even though it was a bipartisan bill. Can you imagine that? Can you imagine a political party, the Democrat Party, that supported eugenics for blacks? Woodrow Wilson. Can you imagine a political party, a Democrat Party, that supported poll taxes, literacy tests, Jim Crow, as they called it? It’s funny, the modern Democrats cite it all the time. They’re citing the people whose shoulders they stand on. And today the Democrat Party, true to form, supports the most hideous, diabolical, destructive ideology of it all, communism. And one of the most hideous, vile, diabolical belief systems at all. This radical Islamism. Backs candidates, wants them to win, because the Democrat Party, like communist parties all over the world, the party comes first. Chairman Xi has been here. He’s chairman of what? Is he chairman of Communist China? He’s chairman of the Communist Party of China. The party rules. The party is in charge. So, everything that this nation was founded on, the Bible, Judeo-Christian belief systems, the Enlightenment, the wars that have been fought, the flag that is carried, the national holidays that we celebrate, the 250th anniversary of the founding of our great country, is all at stake in this election because of the radicalism, the insanity, the vile poison that has become the Democrat Party, the party of Hamas, the party of CAIR, CAIR, the party of the Democratic Socialists of America, communists, the party that wants to deconstruct our judicial system and the Supreme Court, the party that wants to deconstruct our voting system so they never lose. The party that wants the borders wide open to replace the citizenry and they mock us, the replacement theory. It’s not a theory, it’s a reality. So they can gerrymander to their hearts’ desire and make sure they control the House of Representatives, the House, the Senate, the Supreme Court, all at stake, separation of powers, the key, the core to our Constitution. That’s this election. The founders told us and the framers argued repeatedly about this one word. Do you know what this word is? Do you know what this word is? Virtue. Every single one of them said, if the people lose their virtue, if public virtue is lost, the nation will not survive because our entire construct is based on the virtue of the people. Representative government, the consent of the people, voting of the people. It’s the people. If they lose their virtue, it doesn’t matter what the Constitution says. It doesn’ matter what all these men wrote and died for. It won’t even matter what’s in the Holy Bible. If the people lose their virtue, the people will lose their country. They will lose their society. And I would tell you this, there’s another word that goes along with virtue, will. Do we have the will to survive? We have men and women, as I said, who go off to war to protect this society. All we have to do is vote. All we have to do is outvote the enemy. The enemy within. Do we have the will, Mr. and Mrs. America, to save our country from permanent destruction this November? This is not hyperbole. You’ve heard what they’ve said. It almost doesn’t matter what the Republicans have to say. We’re in charge. We’re the sovereign. This is our country. This is the country we want for our children and grandchildren. Are we prepared to vote, because that’s all it’s going to take, in numbers like never before in a midterm election to preserve what was created 250 years ago to the benefit of us and our children and grandchildren, the greatest, most humane, the most prosperous, the most diverse and free country ever established by human beings? Are we? Do we still have virtue? And do we have the will? That’s the question. And we’ll know the answer.
