| Why the left fears Pete Hexeth. | |
| They fear Pete Hexeth. | |
| They fear Trump because they fear America. | |
| Carl, what do you mean? | |
| That's so outlandish. | |
| That's so broad. | |
| That's so fake. | |
| No, the founders outlined 28 principles. | |
| I don't know if you guys have ever read this book, 5,000 Year Leap, but I've read it and honestly I read parts of it at least. | |
| Several times a year. | |
| Just to re-familiarize myself with some of the principles. | |
| Sometimes it may be a specific principle. | |
| But just think of some of the things that the founders laid down. | |
| The 28 Principles of Liberty. | |
| I won't go through all of them. | |
| Just not enough time to do so. | |
| But the first one. | |
| They came up with this. | |
| The only reliable basis for sound government and just human relations is natural law. | |
| Another one. | |
| Life and liberty are secure only so long as the right of property is secure. | |
| Can we say Democrat wildfires of L.A.? A constitution should be structured to permanently protect the people from the human frailties of their rulers. | |
| That's why the constitution exists. | |
| To protect us, we the people, from our rulers. | |
| That's what makes us different, or one of the things that makes us different. | |
| That's one of the things that sets us apart. | |
| Only limited and carefully defined power should be delegated to government, all others being retained in the people. | |
| Efficiency, actually strong local self-government, is the keystone to preserving human freedom. | |
| A free people should be governed by law and not by the whims of men. | |
| Just for a split second, go back to this idea of the rule of law and why it is so crucial. | |
| And we'll get into Jack Smith's report, which Jonathan Turley said, a well-known Georgia University. | |
| George Washington University professor, also a contributor on Fox News. | |
| But a free people should be governed by law and not by the whims of men. | |
| That's what sets us apart. | |
| We don't have dictators in the United States of America. | |
| I know the left, Hemden Hawn, Trump is a dictator, yet he's going through all of the processes and his cabinet picks are going through all of the processes. | |
| This is a guy that deregulated the government. | |
| This is a guy to give you more power. | |
| This is a guy that cut taxes to a lot. | |
| This is a guy that didn't want to get into entangling alliances like the Paris Climate Accord, right? | |
| But he's the dictator. | |
| No. | |
| They hate Trump because he's too freaking American. | |
| And they hate... | |
| Pete Hexeth for the same exact reasons. | |
| He's too American. | |
| They actually believe in this stuff. | |
| They actually believe in the Constitution. | |
| They actually believe in a strong military. | |
| And that is dangerous to the left. | |
| Because if you don't bow down to Uncle Sam, the left is over. | |
| And they get that. | |
| So they've got to do everything they can. | |
| They've got to keep you mad. | |
| They've got to keep you angry and frustrated. | |
| And they got to keep you drugged up on that welfare drug, if you will. | |
| They got to keep some of the poor people high on welfare. | |
| That's the only way they have you. | |
| Because if you embrace freedom, you won't embrace the Democrat Party, at least not as it exists today. | |
| And they can't stand that. |
