Look, Dana, we have a president who is moving this country rapidly into authoritarianism.
00:08
He is suing media who criticizes him.
00:11
He is going after law firms who have clients who were against him.
00:16
He's going after universities that teach courses that he doesn't like.
00:20
He's threatening to impeach judges who rule against him, and he's usurping the powers
00:26
of the United States Congress.
00:27
This guy wants all of the power.
00:30
He does not believe in the Constitution.
00:33
He does not believe in the rule of law.
00:36
My understanding is that the governor of California, the mayor of the city of Los Angeles, did not
00:42
request the National Guard, but he thinks he has a right to do anything he wants.
00:48
And I would say that, to a large degree, the future of this country rests with a small number
00:53
of Republicans in the House and Senate who know better, who do know what the Constitution
01:00
is about.
01:01
And it's high time they stood up for our Constitution and the rule of law.
01:06
You know, we just celebrated a few days ago, June 6th, the American landing at Normandy, which
01:16
began the invasion of Europe to defeat fascism and Nazism.
01:22
Those guys died.
01:24
They gave up their lives to defend democracy, not to have an all-powerful ruler in the United
01:31
States of America.
