Bernie Sanders Is a Danger to Our Republic | Ep 45

Bernie Sanders holds ideas that could destroy our country if he isn’t stopped. Fleccas Talks joins me in the studio to look at the incriminating evidence against this socialism-obsessed man.

Time Text
We need a political revolution in this country involving millions of people who are prepared to stand up and say enough is enough.
When we were in Moscow, for example, I think most of the people here also were extremely impressed by their public transportation system.
We pay for that through a modest tax on Wall Street speculation.
I'm proud that we've changed the political discourse in this country.
You don't know how much you're playing with.
You don't know.
Nobody knows.
A whole variety of programs for young people and cultural programs which go far beyond what we do in this country.
Everybody was totally convinced that Cashco was the worst guy in the world.
All the Cuban people were going to rise up in rebellion against Fidel Cashboard.
They forgot that he educated the kids, gave them health care, totally transformed the society.
If you're like me and you saw those clips and you just thought to yourself, a good thing nobody's giving that guy a platform.
I mean, that guy's crazy.
America isn't about those kinds of things, then you probably are like me.
But then you switched on the news and you go, hold up.
Not only is that guy in politics in the United States, but he's not just like some far-out mayor from Indiana like Mr. Pee-Pee-Butt.
This man is the top contender to lead the Democrat Party in the presidential election, and he's holding foreign ideas that are dangerous to our republic.
so bernie sanders did say some things that made me question the future of our republic if of course he's elected as president But first, welcome back to Slightly Offensive, of course, with your favorite queer women of color.
Did you hear about the change?
not gay black women anymore well somebody so so okay so you you would know this People get really offended easily.
They do.
Like, really easily.
So, what happened?
Like, you have no bad intentions, and then they think that you're a bad person.
Yeah, they attribute the worst possible motive a lot of times if you're a conservative.
They give you no grace.
They just assume, yep, you're a Nazi, and I caught you.
Now time to get justice, Nazi.
And that's what happens a lot.
Wow.
You're a really talented young man who knows a lot about the future.
But one of your weaknesses is something I got to tell you.
You don't have a VPN, specifically a good VPN.
Like, I don't know.
Let me think.
Like, ExpressVPN?
What's VPN?
Good thing you asked, Austin.
ExpressVPN is an incredible VPN.
You might say, what is this?
All the time, online companies are selling your information.
They're basically, they don't even care about you using their websites.
They just want your information to sell to big companies to exploit you.
And take our data and create an artificial version of God where they know and see all.
Yeah, well.
That's a longer story.
That's a longer story.
But as I tell people, you know, you need to learn how to hide your data and protect yourself, of course, from being exploited.
ExpressVPN gives you the best security while other VPNs basically even might even sell your data.
ExpressVPN has this thing called Trusted Server, which is a technology they designed that allows not even foreign servers to pick up your data.
And for those of you that don't understand, do you ever have those ideas too where you've tried to watch shows and it's only available in a certain country or a movie's getting released in another country first and you want to watch in your country?
Doctor Who is that?
Doctor Who?
Yeah, Doctor Who's only available in England.
But if you use ExpressVPN, what it does is it allows you to link to servers, which is just, if you don't know what that is, it's computer gods in other countries.
So you can basically sign into a server in England and then it'll allow you to watch Doctor Who here without having to pay thousands of dollars to fly to England, buy a hotel and sit down.
You can actually just get a year's subscription.
And what's even better, check this out.
If you wanted to have one, two, or three months free of a VPN, what would it be?
Three.
Oh, that's perfect.
ExpressVPN gives you three months free when you sign up for a year.
So you get the protection.
You also get to keep your security and your data for big solder companies.
And you get to watch whatever content you want.
And you get the first three months free.
So that's awesome.
Go to expressvpn.com slash offensive.
That's expressvpn.com slash offensive.
You can also find the links in the description as well in case you're like ADD, me, and you don't know, and get your first three months free.
It's really incredible.
Protect everything.
And now you can watch Doctor Who leader.
Yeah, we all know how difficult it can be to watch Doctor Who.
And now you can too with ExpressVPN.
Today we're talking about Bernie Sanders.
Those of you guys that don't know, Bernie Sanders is ahead in the elections.
And I think the clips that we're going to go over today and the topics that we're going to look at and then the quotes that he said.
Genuinely, I want the audience to know this.
I am concerned for the well-being of our country because when I see how much Americans like this guy, I think I finally know what the people who hate Trump feel like.
Yeah.
And there is like a populist spirit to him.
He's the populist of the left.
So what we're seeing happen basically is like the establishment versus Bernie.
Are they going to steal it from him?
Is Mike Bloomberg going to literally buy the election just like, you know, Bernie's been talking about would be the worst case scenario?
And then what's going to happen after that?
I think the rational populists will kind of kind of gear towards Trump.
I think a bunch of people won't vote at all.
And then I think a bunch of people are going to start fires and flip things over and get really, really mad.
No, me.
It's going to get kind of crazy because they're going to steal it from Bernie.
They're not going to run him.
He's too anti-establishment.
The deep state, the cabal, whatever you call it, will lose its control.
Their last hope is establishment, Democrat ticket, maybe sneaking Hillary into the Mike Bloomberg train.
But Bernie winning is not an option for them.
And that's so tough for him because he has to win like two elections.
He has to win the primary and then go beat Trump.
It's like, you're never going to do it.
But that's what they're up against.
And there's like a faction within the Bernie crew.
There's a bunch of people that just get frustrated and just not vote.
And that's good for us.
There's people that will come over and vote for Trump, not that many.
But there's a bunch of people, not that many either, that are going to start fires and get really, really, really mad.
They're going to be pissed.
And that's why.
The Project Veritas guy.
Right.
We're going to get to that.
So let's jump into the first segment.
This is a new one we're bringing up.
It's called Background Check.
I think that's a good idea.
Like, let's background check who we're talking about.
Yeah, that's a good idea.
Like, back up.
Because when I'm talking about the fact that Bernie's being exposed here, I think you're going to be shocked as a listener if you're here.
I really want you to stay along with this because I know some people don't like long form or they don't want to go through this.
But this is so important because what I found out when looking at Bernie's personal life made me genuinely fearful for the youth of our country.
Not because people like that exist in our country.
Like Bernie, I know people are crazy and we have the freedom to exist and be crazy.
But the popularity that he's gained with the background and seeing the cover-up that's been going on.
So let's see.
Let's do a little quiz.
Do you know what degree he graduated with?
I think undergrad.
It's pretty obvious.
I mean, it's what you think.
History?
Political science.
Political science.
Yeah.
So he went.
So after he did that, so he moved to Vermont.
We all know about this Vermont senator, right?
So right after that, he joined a Marxist propaganda arm called the American People's History Society.
Do you ever notice that the Marxists are deceptive like that?
They call their organizations like the people's history, but it's not our history.
Our history is not Marxism.
We actually were killing Marxist.
It's all play on words, and it's all to keep you off their trail.
The Antifa, oh, we're the anti-fascists.
And it's literally the opposite.
But the last thing like a casual observer would think would be like, oh, Antifa, the last thing they would think are, oh, they're the actual fascists.
And it just keeps you, it keeps like the average casual scroller off your scent for that much longer by controlling the words like that.
Yeah.
And so this is what's weird.
I didn't know that Bernie was a filmmaker.
Did you know that?
No.
Documentary filmmaker.
In fact, he had his own TV show when he was, when I think he was the mayor, or I think it was when he's first the mayor.
But before that, he got into politics by making a documentary on Eugene Debs.
And if you're like my viewer, if you're like one of the viewers of the show and you don't know who Eugene Debs is because you don't go that far into politics, I know who Eugene Debs was before this.
I don't know if it's a guy.
Girl.
Well, that's a good point.
Okay, so Eugene Debs, he makes this glowing documentary about a Marxist.
And I want to read you a quote from him because I, because this is, because before you like think I'm exaggerating, you know, and thinking, oh, you're just making it up like he loved this person.
You know, because it's like someone looking at one of our videos and be like, oh, he's promoting leftists or whatever.
So this is his quote.
He said this: I had that feeling when I first read Eugene Debs.
For example, if you read what Debs said about the goals of socialism, it's no different from what I've been saying that all socialism is about democracy.
And of course, you hear Eugene Debs, you're not upset, right?
You just think, whatever, that's just whatever, right?
That's probably what comes to your head.
Okay, so he was a subversive hero of Sanders, right?
And was even denounced by the liberal Democrats.
So Sanders has a tradition of looking up to people in his life that are not looked at as being real liberal Democrats.
That's not surprising, but I mean, I didn't know that.
Yeah, that kind of adds up.
Yeah.
Okay, so this person is famous for bashing the barons of Wall Street and for praising the Bolsheviks, which isn't looking good.
So this is a quote from Eugene Debs.
This is his hero, right?
He said that he's looking at socialism like this person's looking at it.
This quote says, Those Russian comrades of ours have made greater sacrifices, have suffered more, and have shed more heroic blood than any like number of men and women anywhere on earth.
Debs proclaimed they have laid the foundation of the first real democracy that drew the breath of life in the world.
And in 1918, a speech in Canton, Ohio, Debs reaffirmed his solidarity with Lenin and Trotsky, despite clear evidence of their violent plunder and treachery.
Sanders also hung a portrait of Debs on the wall in his Senate office.
So he started out early on with his hero being somebody who looked up to Lenin and Trotsky in those that were leaders of Russia, for those people that don't know, who were murderous people.
He looks up.
This is why I'm not buying his stick.
He's his heroes.
He made a documentary.
This is his past.
He actually has nothing.
That's very communistic, too, right?
To put up a picture of someone you look up to, like on your wall, like in your office, but like that's not somebody from your own country.
I did that for meatloaf.
Oh.
But it's good because he's a nice guy.
He's not killing people.
He's loving countries.
You have minced beef with onions on your wall.
He's a singer, the singer, Marvin Leader.
That's a good question, though.
If meatloaf was going to be on your wall, physical meatloaf, people make it differently.
A lot of people say it's a white-only food.
I think all people can enjoy meatloaf.
I'm not race.
Meatloaf's not racist.
The singer is not racist, and the food's not racist.
And I don't actually like the food meatloaf because I don't like the idea of baking ketchup like that.
Well, it's not like you become less of a friend to me when you say things like that.
I like gooey ketchup.
Right, but I continue our work relationship.
That's an interesting.
Well, I would say this: I do like it.
I do like it.
There is some redeeming value.
Ground beef is redeeming value.
It's like a ground beef bread, which is kind of disgusting.
Kind of disgusting, right?
Dressing.
Right.
Okay.
Well, having said, there is no redeeming value, though, in communism.
And I got to say, Sanders also failed to run for Congress.
But besides that, he also had a honeymoon in the USSR.
He also had trips to cities inside of Russia.
He sent a delegation to Russia as well.
And he took goodwill trips to Cuba, Nicaragua, and basically everywhere where dictators took over and where communists are.
So he's had goodwill trips.
And I want you to watch this video of Sanders in Nicaragua talking positively about the Nicaraguan communist dictator while bashing the United States.
Does that sound like the Democrat debates?
Sounds like the Democrat debates.
Anyway, load the clip.
What's going on in Nicaragua today?
It's not important to get into all the details of whether the Sandinistas are right or wrong on this issue.
If we understand that in the last 30 years, the United States has overthrown governments in Guatemala, the Dominican Republic, they murdered Salvador Allende in Chile.
They've overthrown the government of Grenada.
They attempted to overthrow the government of Cuba.
They overthrew a government of Brazil.
And now they're attempting to overthrow the government of Nicaragua.
The basic crime being committed by the people of Nicaragua today is that the government there has the strange and unusual idea that they should attempt to do something for the people of Nicaragua rather than for the United States corporations.
It's a very strange idea for an independent nation to have.
And if the history of the United States' relationship to Latin America for the last 50 years, which is Somoza, yes.
Ortega, no.
Batista, yes.
Castro, no.
And we are not prepared to accept this nation dominating poor nations and weak nations.
This guy, I'll give it to him.
While I think he's crazy, and we're going to get into why I think he's actually dangerous, he's definitely not insincere.
Yeah.
And you touched on it just before.
He's giving pointers to the enemy.
He's like, you know, advising people to go against Americans' best interests.
And that's kind of something we see with his followers.
Not all of them, but a lot of his followers, they do have an anti-American aspect to their entire narrative, their entire point of view.
And that's where I think people don't realize that the left and liberals are not the same thing.
The Bernie, radical, progressive AOC left has nothing in common with the MAGA people, but the liberals, I think, have more in common with the MAGA people, moderates, conservatives, than they actually do with the progressives.
Because liberals are still for free speech, anti-censorship, stuff like that.
The progressives and how they identify, it's like in order to be involved and like in lockstep with their agenda and their narrative, you have to believe that fundamentally America is flawed and not a great place.
And that's like a huge thing I'm noticing in all these protests.
I go talk to the supporters.
It's like, you know, there's some moderate people that like like Joe Biden.
They like America.
They'll wear an American flag shirt.
The Bernie people, the AOC types, those radical far left, they're ashamed to be an American.
But they're trying to destroy it to kind of like redeem themselves and make themselves feel special.
But they're bloodthirsty, though.
And this is why I was scared.
You know, I was sitting there.
And what I realized, and I don't take this out of context, but I realized that in the past decades, we fought wars overseas and Americans gave their lives to prevent leaders from coming into power that held similar views to some of the people who I will not mention by name who are starting to rise to power in this country.
And I intentionally not talk about anybody specifically, just ideas that are starting to float around in certain corners.
And I'm not going to say that Bernie Sanders has those exact ideas, but a lot of his supporters do.
Check out these, do you see this right now?
What's on the screen?
These messages from a friend of mine.
They're obviously blurred out.
But this is a communist friend of mine, pro-communist.
Of course, he's a vegan, vegan communist.
Can't go wrong there.
And explaining that basically if Bernie comes into power, they're going to, that's what he's saying is that they're going to take people's mansions away from them.
Then this guy posts the picture right here of the gun, and you go, okay, that's a big rifle, right?
Yeah, they're pretty transparent about what their plan is.
And I'm not putting it past him.
They pretend that the right is all the Nazis and the fascists, and they're the ones getting violent.
If they get into power, I promise you, they're going to start rounding people up.
We're dead.
We're dead.
And look at this.
I even called him out and I go, oh, look.
And you see this response right here?
On the screen, it goes, oh, yeah, look.
Basically, you need to stop trying to take people's stuff.
That's not how our country works.
Someone tries to defend him right under right here and goes, oh, they're not saying they're trying to take people's houses.
And the guy says, yeah, I am trying to take people's houses.
Like, he literally said that.
He's right there on Facebook.
That's not against the rules.
You can literally threaten to have a Bolshevik revolution, you know, like a trusted in, like, actually instill a deadly ideology.
And Facebook's like, that's pretty cool.
But then you upload a history video from World War II and they're like, that's propaganda.
And it's like, wait, but I was making Hitler look bad.
Like, this was about how it was a bad idea.
I'm not saying it was good.
These guys are promoting communist takeovers, which brings us to our next segment.
Communism sucks.
This is an old returning one.
You were mentioning earlier, James O'Keefe of Veritas exposed the truth of not Bernie Sanders' supporters, but Bernie Sanders' campaign workers of the intensity of really what revolution they're looking for.
Watch this.
Do you even think that some of these like Mega people could even be re-educated?
I mean, we gotta try.
I mean, like, so like in Nazi Germany, after the fall of the Nazi party, there was a shit ton of the populace that was notified.
And like, Germany had to spend billions of dollars re-educating people to not be Nazis.
Like, we're probably gonna have to do the same thing here.
And that's kind of what Bernie's like, whole re-education for everybody, because we're gonna have to teach you not to be a f ⁇ ing Nazi.
There's a reason Joseph Stalin had gulags, right?
And actually, gulags were a lot better than like what the CIA has told us that they were.
So, yeah, I mean, you saw this, right?
I mean, he's literally talking.
This is Kyle Durek, right?
This guy, this campaign worker.
I mean, people like to say, he's praising gulags, re-education camps, burning cities, beating cops, and killing anyone who resists the revolution as a plan all along.
And as much as people say that this is just insanity, it's right-wing propaganda.
You're looking at these people.
No, these are people working in the office of this candidate who are genuinely there.
And what concerns me the most is that the response from Sanders' team in this video was nothing.
They actually had, what was this?
What was this guy?
They had a quick dismissal of this by an Iowa staffer who said this was political gossip.
It was like, these people are insane.
They're planning a revolution before our eyes, telling us they want to put us into camps, that they want to kill us, that they want to remove the systems we put in place.
They want a revolution.
And then they call it, they say, oh, it's political gossip.
You guys are the real Nazis.
It's like, what do we do about that?
I mean, that's what I'm saying.
It's backwards cool.
I mean, I'm nervous for the people of America.
They're just like walking it in now.
Because back in the day, we used to fight the commies, the Red Scare.
There was like, you don't want to be a commie.
Oh, you're a commie.
You can kind of figure out who the commies are.
And we like kept them out and we were like on high alert.
And then the guard just kind of got dropped.
And now they're just walking in on the presidential ticket.
They're just going to vote it in.
It's kind of crazy.
We can't let it happen though.
We can't let it happen, but we also can't call, you know, have violent calls to action.
But here's what I'm saying.
When they have the Kyle Jurek, those types, and they get really mad when they lose the primary or they get really mad when they lose to Trump, whatever it is, and they start taking it to the streets, the police and the law enforcement and city by city, it's on them to handle it properly.
And if they handle it properly, I think it gets squashed out.
Right.
But if the shoe fits, the point is, so we see the history, right?
The background is that this guy praises Bolsheviks.
He praises Lenin.
He praises these people.
He puts their picture up.
It's kind of like how someone would go, oh, yeah, well, like, I don't really, I don't really like things that are satanic, but everyone that I worship and adore are all Satanists.
And it's like, well, you're pretty close.
If the shoe fits, you know, that's pretty much where you're at.
But on to our next segment, which is Orange Man Bad, because there's always a way to tie this back.
Bernie Sanders is trying to flip this on Trump.
He's trying to shroud his evilness by trying to blame Trump as the evil guy.
And there's a 60 minutes interview, and I'm going to prove this.
There was a video that came out that was saying, oh yeah, it was a lie.
Sanders is not going to put a 52% tax on people that make over $29,000.
Were you aware of that one?
Yeah, I immediately did not think that math worked.
Right.
That's fine.
The math doesn't work.
But he actually doesn't know about math.
And you can tell that he has communist ideas because of this interview where he's asked by Anderson Cooper about if he knows how much his plans cost and he can't even put a number or even begin to articulate it.
Do you know how much, though?
I mean, do you have a price tag for all this?
We do.
I mean, you know, and the price tag is it will be substantially less than letting the current system go.
I think it's about 30 trillion.
That's just for Medicare for all.
Do you have a price tag for all of these?
No, I don't.
We try to.
No, you mentioned making public colleges and universities tuition-free and canceling all student debt.
That's correct.
That's what I want to do.
We pay for that through a modest tax on Wall Street speculation.
But you say you don't know what the total price is, but you know how it's going to be paid for.
How do you know it's going to be paid for if you don't know how much the price is?
Well, I can't rattle off to you every nickel and every dime, but we have accounted for it.
You talked about Medicare for all.
We have options out there that will pay for it.
Yeah, you're going to figure it out.
Well, how are you going to figure it out?
It's not paying $12.50 in rent every month and I'll figure it out.
I'll find a thousand bucks.
Nah, pal.
No, you're going to hike up the taxes on the people.
Everyone's going to have to pay for that.
Or you're going to have to privatize.
I mean, you're going to have to make the government take over privatized businesses or things that are going to have to create internal revenue.
You have to have internal streams of revenue to government-owned businesses.
Basic economics.
I'm not fear-mongering.
And then we're going to go to the store, and then there's only going to be one option of beans, and we're going to be like, shh, censor word.
We got screwed.
Why does your brain go to beans?
I don't know.
I saw a video about that.
They had beans.
There's one type of beans in Cuba.
And there's the whole aisle that's just one type of beans.
I don't want that.
Rough.
Rough.
The coronavirus will empty our grocery stores before socialism does.
Yeah.
Well, you know what?
That's a different video.
Yeah.
I don't know.
The coronavirus.
I mean, speaking of Mexican names, he's also, unfortunately, in the same clip, he praises Fidel Castro.
Watch this.
Way back in, what was it, 1961, they invaded Cuba.
And everybody was totally convinced that Castro was the worst guy in the world.
All the Cuban people were going to rise up in rebellion against Fidel Castro.
They'd forgot that he educated the kids, gave them health care, totally transformed a society.
You know, not to say that Fidel Castro or Cuba are perfectly certainly not.
But just because Ronald Reagan dislikes these people does not mean to say that the people in their own nations feel the same way.
Not good.
Can't praise Fidel Castro.
That guy's fine.
Yeah, not a good start.
That's not a good start.
You know, and here's what he said.
They have the massive, right?
He said, massive literacy program.
What's really weird about this, he says, oh, there's a massive literacy program.
But you're in a communist country.
So what are you going to know?
You can't write down your thoughts.
This is my conclusion about Sanders.
You can't write down your thoughts because you can have free thinking.
You can't, what books are you going to read?
Books that challenge the status quo?
Like, you know what?
Books are okay in a communist country.
Books that make you challenge new ideas?
Books that are read to you by a drag queen only.
Yeah, no, but I'm just saying, I'm saying, like, the point about this whole communist thing, and this is why I think it's crazy.
You go back over this guy.
From the beginning, he was pro-communist from the beginning.
He spent time in communist countries.
He's on record from the beginning talking in communist countries to communist dictators about the evils of America.
Meaning he's under his skin, holding true to what we see to be mainstream Democrat ideas today, which is how he rose to power.
On top of that, not only is he making these documentaries, the people in his campaign are admitting their plans.
Their plans are to take over the United States.
He dismisses it, but you can't dismiss it.
If you dismissed it, you would have condemned it.
You would have come out against it.
You would have fired.
You would have said this is a bad idea.
But he's not.
He says, ah, they don't do anything to dismiss it.
And then on top of that, he gets on air today and says some of the same things he's always been saying.
Why aren't people freaking out that communism got into this country?
And they go, but he says he's not a communist.
I'm like, yeah, and the devil says he's not a liar.
Like, I mean, you have to understand this.
Meanwhile, they're pointing at Trump the entire time, calling him a fascist, calling him a Nazi.
But the devil himself is trying to get into the presidency.
I mean, really, communism killed more people than fascism ever did.
And if fascism's terrible, and I'm not for fascism, but there's nobody trying to institute fascism in this country on a large scale.
But communism is at our doorstep, and Bernie Sanders is the closest representation.
I mean, it's madness.
I mean, it really is.
AOC already lost the jobs in New York.
Yeah, we're close and we're about to vote it in.
We are very close.
2016 was the biggest election ever.
2020 is the biggest election ever.
Because if Bernie gets selected, he's going to reverse everything that's been done.
And they're going to double, triple, quadruple down and make up for all that lost time.
They're going to have a vengeful spirit and they're going to come for us worse than I think in recent history.
And it's close.
And he has a big group behind him.
All we can hope for is a Democrat establishment strong enough to keep Bernie out.
So we're rooting for the establishment.
Because they're both bad.
But at least, like, I think Trump will beat Bloomberg and the establishment winning will make the Bernie people mad enough to split the group up, which is good.
But either way, I'm rooting for the establishment to beat Bernie.
I hate Bernie Sanders.
Go, Hillary.
Let's get Hillary back in the mix.
Let's get her back out here.
Pull her out of the stable.
She's ready.
Give her some meatloaf.
Juice her up.
Whatever she's killing.
Juice her up.
Juice her up.
It's a needle.
Whatever that concoction is.
Juice her up.
Did you concoction?
Right in her neck.
Concoction.
Juice her up.
Put her out of the van.
Send her out there.
Let her go do her thing.
She smells like sulfur.
She still has the blood of Jeffrey Epstein's cord on her hands.
Whatever she needs to get that power she has and send her out.
It won't come across as authentic.
She'll lose again.
We'll win.
We'll be fine.
We just can't let the socialists almost get in charge.
Yeah, we can't let them.
And that's what I want to end on is that we cannot let socialism into our country.
And I heard it said before, oh, socialism isn't a modern problem.
It's outdated.
Why are we focusing on that?
We're focusing on it because the top contender for half the country's beliefs is a socialist.
That being said, one of the congressional leaders from one of the biggest states in the country and one of the most popular congressional leaders inside of that party is also an open socialist.
So yes, this is a damn big problem and it's our problem.
And we have to realize that people gave their lives for it.
Let's not ever let or call for anything to lead to that.
Let's fight this in a way that we know best as Americans, which is through diplomacy and through voting people out.
Have a great rest of the day, as always.
