Chapter 1: How are Democrats surprising the GOP with their new strategies?

00:00 - 00:24 Ben Meiselas

The MAGA Republicans are stunned. They did not expect it, but they should have. As MAGA Republicans are too afraid to hold town halls and be confronted by their own constituents, we're now seeing Democratic leaders stand up and fight for the people. we're actually seeing Democratic fighters. I'll show you what went down recently.

00:24 - 00:37 Ben Meiselas

Like on Saturday, Senator Ossoff of Georgia gave an incredible speech in Atlanta. He reminds us once again why he is such a powerful speaker. Here he is right here. Let's play it.

0

00:38 - 01:07 Senator Sheldon Whitehouse

And none of this is on the administration's agenda. They just do not care. They do not care. Trump's cabinet is worth like $60 billion. That's not even including Elon. They are literally the elites they pretend to hate. The president is not at his palace in Florida thinking about whether you can afford daycare for your daughter.

01:08 - 01:23 Senator Sheldon Whitehouse

how to stop insurance companies from denying your claim or anything that matters to our daily lives. When is the last time you even heard Donald Trump talk about healthcare or childcare? He's talking about invading Greenland.

00:00 - 00:00 Ben Meiselas

Here Senator Ossoff again talking about how MAGA doesn't give a crap about ordinary people, let's play it.

00:00 - 00:00 Senator Sheldon Whitehouse

And see, this is why things don't work for ordinary people. It's not because of trans kids or woke college students. It's not because of our new arch enemy, Canada. The corruption is why you pay a fortune for prescriptions. The corruption is why your insurance claim keeps getting denied.

00:00 - 00:00 Senator Sheldon Whitehouse

The corruption is why hedge funds get to buy up all the houses in your neighborhood and Congress doesn't do anything about it. See, this is why so many have lost faith in our system. Because the system really is rigged but Trump's not unrigging it, he's re-rigging it for himself.

00:00 - 00:00 Ben Meiselas

Here, Senator Ossoff talks about how apparently the Trump regime is now selling meetings at Mar-a-Lago or at the White House or elsewhere for $5 million, play this clip.

00:00 - 00:00 Senator Sheldon Whitehouse

And then on top of the chaos, you have the corruption. It was just reported that dinner with the president at Mar-a-Lago is on sale for just $5 million. And really, the whole royal family is cashing in. Don Jr. is setting up a new business empire. Jared's investment firm got $2 billion from the Saudi royal family. Hunter Biden should have been more ambitious.

Chapter 2: What did Senator Ossoff say in his recent Atlanta speech?

09:49 - 09:50 Ben Meiselas

Play this clip.

0

09:50 - 10:11 Donald Trump

We don't wanna have wasteful jobs, we wanna have meaningful jobs. And those were wasteful jobs. Those are jobs that not only military, but jobs where people don't show up. You take a look at Department of Education. I've never seen so many buildings with the names on it. You go past one after another Department of Education and they're empty. The people don't show up. You know why?

0

10:11 - 10:17 Donald Trump

Because they have other jobs. Because they're playing golf or they're playing something. They're doing something.

0

10:17 - 10:45 Ben Meiselas

And folks, you even have Republicans out there. It's like Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski speaking in her state. And she's saying, how did this happen? How did we get to a place where we're attacking Canada and we're supporting Russia? Because of you, Murkowski. It's because you support people like Donald Trump and his idiotic, dangerous regime. Play this clip.

0

00:00 - 00:00 Senator Sheldon Whitehouse

Quite honestly, I've been stunned by a turn of events that would appear that we might abandon Ukraine and collapse longstanding alliances from NATO to NORAD. And then we've got two close neighbors here in Alaska. We've got Russia over here. We've got Canada over here. How we came to a place where we're fighting now with Canada and we're making nice with Russia, it's beyond me.

00:00 - 00:00 Senator Sheldon Whitehouse

And as long as we've got to send up fighter jets to chase off Russian bear bombers from our addies, I'm not going to trust Putin here, and I'm not going to be quiet about it. I'm going to stand up and say so. Thank you.

00:00 - 00:00 Ben Meiselas

And again, just think about those clips I shared with you earlier in this video of Senator Ossoff, of Senator Warnock, of Democratic Congresswoman Bynum. Think about those clips. Now contrast them to this right here, Donald Trump's Commerce Secretary, billionaire Howard Lutnick, who says that we should absolutely not make Doge more empathetic. to the concerns of the American people.

00:00 - 00:00 Ben Meiselas

He goes, no, no, no, no empathy. No, no, no. Play this clip.

00:00 - 00:00 Howard Lutnick

Before we get there, I want to ask one last question on the cuts. Do we need to speak in a more empathetic way? Because that trillion dollars of spending flows into someone's pocket. Some percentage of that pays people a salary and they live on that income. And I think a lot of the- No, no. Okay, I think this is important for you to highlight because a lot of people are reacting.
