Erica Kirk, who is Charlie Kirk's widow, did something that I just think is frankly despicable. It's despicable. And I I think it's everything wrong with our politics, quite frankly. On top of it, we have John Thun here who also had lost his on live TV and then Fox News aired something humiliating for Donald Trump. Let's get to John Thun first. John Thun suffered from Fox News's audio issues and he was none too happy. Watch his face. But before we get to that, if you could please hit like on this video, more people will see it. And if you're not subscribed, please consider subscribing. We're almost at 900,000 subscribers, and you could help us reach that goal. All right, let's get to this. [Music] But I'm pretty good at this stuff. He did use that moment to tout to the world what he has been uh able to do with our border and immigration. Okay, we appear to still be having those audio issues. Not politically important. Still very fun to see. Fun to see him get frustrated. It didn't end there. They thought they had fixed it. And they didn't. Senator, jump on in here. Um Oh, he just played sound of President Trump. I moved from immigration to President Trump calling out those who recognize the Palestinian state. Your reaction to his remarks on that this morning? All right, we're done. Okay. All right, we tried again. Again, no, no, no political implications. Not going to change my life one bit. Still funny to see. Accidents do happen as someone who has tried to do a live show. It is not easy. So, I'm actually a little empathetic sympathetic to what they're going through. Now, Fox News also, what Aaron Rupar said here, posted Donald Trump getting bodied by uh the Turkish president, but he seems to take a shot at President Trump. Listen, I can only say this, Mr. Trump, you might remember he used a term. He said, "I will finish the Russia Ukraine war." Did it end? It still goes on. similarly he said I will finish the war in Gaza didn't no that means once we start analyzing the issue there are prices to pay and when we look at the hostage hostage exchange that was done it goes on yeah so it's incredible that they shared something a shared world leader who was criticized izing Donald Trump for a campaign promise that we all know he it did not follow through on. But I will say at least for now, I don't trust anything this goddamn guy says, but at least for now, Donald Trump appears to be thinking to himself, "Hey, maybe Ukrainians are the ones I should be backing, and Russia has been lying to me the whole time." Donald Trump said this. After getting to know and fully understand the Ukraine, Russia military and economic situation, after seeing the economic trouble it is causing Russia, I think Ukraine with the support of the European Union is in a position to fight and win all of Ukraine back in its original form with time, patience, and the financial support of Europe and in particular NATO. The original borders from where the war started is very much an option. Why not? Russia has been fighting aimlessly for three and a half years. A war that should have taken a real military power less than a week to win. This is not distinguishing Russia. This is not distinguishing Russia. In fact, it's very much making them look like a paper tiger when the people living in Moscow and all the great cities, towns, and districts all throughout Russia find out what is really going on with this war. The fact that it's almost impossible for them to get gasoline through the lawn lines that are being formed and all the other things that are taking place in the war economy where most of their money is being spent on fighting Ukraine, which has great spirit only better and only getting better. Ukraine would be able to take back their country in its original form. And who knows, maybe even go further than that. Okay, I don't think Ukraine is going to launch a retalitary war on Russia. But this is totally different than what he has said before. I think this is a great thing. I don't believe him, but I'd rather him being saying this than anything else. But this is kind of the thing where Donald Trump will just literally say anything and you don't know who or what to believe. I gotta say though that uh Zalinsky was on Fox which is really smart. He was on Fox and this is what he had to say about it. Are you surprised to hear that? A little bit. A bit. I mean this I'm sure in my people in my army and I'm sure in strengthening of thei in support of the United States but President Trump was more positive in it and uh he showed that he wants to support Ukraine to the very end. So we understand now that we are ready to finish this war as quick as possible and he wants and I want and our people want but he understand that Putin doesn't want and he understand that he is not winning but he sales to everybody that he will win and uh I see very it was a bit surprise for me you're right I was very positive signals from the side that that Trump and America will be with us to the end of the war. Yes, we will see, right? We will see. But I God bless it will be. So, well, we will see. I mean, I'm I am hope I'm going to say hopelessly optimistic about this because I don't trust anything Trump says. As I said multiple times now in this video, I don't trust anything he says. I do trust him though when he says this. In that private moment on his dying day, we find everything we need to know about who Charlie Kirk truly was. He was a missionary with a noble spirit and a great great purpose. He did not hate his opponents. He wanted the best for them. That's where I disagreed with Charlie. I hate my opponent and I don't want the best for them. I'm sorry. I am sorry, Erica. But now Erica can talk to me and the whole group and maybe they can convince me that that's not right. But I can't stand my opponent. Yeah, I kind of believe him on that one. I believe him on that one. I think he is telling the truth. He does not like his opponents at all. In fact, he hates them. I believe that 100%. Now, what he's responding to there is I thought was actually a very powerful moment. I believe her when she said this and I actually think this is the way forward. I don't believe we should have Republicans in power because I believe that Democrats are looking out for middle class Americans more than Republicans ever could or would. But I do think I would like Republicans if you're going to be in power who act like this. Father, forgive them for they not know what they do. That man, that young man, I forgive him. I think that's very powerful. I think she's trul I I believe her. I believe it doesn't change anything about what they believe or or the things that Charlie Kirk has said. I think that's a powerful moment. I I wish our country had more moments like that. I on a human level I feel for her. I feel for her and anyone who knows anything about being in deep grief that is not an easy thing to do and I do believe her. I think that is great but what she's doing here that it's disgusting. She is fundraising off of her husband's death. The subject line says here I am Lord. I will carry Charlie's torch. Patriot. I don't know where to begin except with this. I miss him. Every breath, every heartbeat, every memory I now replay in my mind. I miss him. I miss my husband who was murdered. Please give me money. It's disgusting. It's everything wrong with our politics. I think our politics is way too tied in with money and fundraising as it is. If I get another text from some sort of organization or candidate, I might lose my mind. But this is so beyond the pale. This is so beyond the pale. Using a tragedy that you suffered through where people are obviously feel very compassionate towards you and using it to just enrich yourself is to me disturbing and gross and it's totally the opposite of the person who would forgive the killer. That's like the opposite type of behavior. It doesn't make sense, but I guess that's mega. Well, thank you for watching. If you like the video, please hit like.
