=== Foreign And Domestic Threats (08:06) ===

[00:00:00]  Look, we're at the 21st marking, if you will, of the September 11th attacks.
[00:00:05]  This was a foreign terrorist attacking our democracy, attacking this country.
[00:00:11]  We're now, as a nation, battling a threat from within.
[00:00:14]  Is the threat equal or greater than what we faced after 9 /11?
[00:00:20]  That's an interesting question.
[00:00:22]  I have held many elected offices as District Attorney, Attorney General, Senator.
[00:00:28]  Now Vice President.
[00:00:29]  And there's an oath that we always take, which is to defend and uphold our Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic.
[00:00:39]  We don't compare the two in the oath, but we know they both can exist and we must defend against it.
[00:00:49]  We're going to break this down in a bit.
[00:00:54]  There's a concept in psychology known as folie à deux, and it's basically like craziness by two, madness by two.
[00:01:05]  Folie à deux, it's an actual psychiatric issue, condition, where typically a couple, basically they don't convey psychosis like it's telepathy, but they feed off each other's psychosis where they effectively go mad together.
[00:01:23]  Because they're bouncing off their delusional ideas between each other.
[00:01:28]  And there's no check and balance.
[00:01:30]  And it cascades and spirals on its own.
[00:01:33]  Folie à deux.
[00:01:34]  Look it up.
[00:01:35]  It means folie by pair in French.
[00:01:38]  It can also be folie à trois.
[00:01:41]  Folie by three.
[00:01:42]  It can be folie à quatre.
[00:01:44]  Madness by four.
[00:01:45]  It can also be folie à famille.
[00:01:48]  Family madness.
[00:01:50]  What we are witnessing here...
[00:01:52]  If it is not folie à deux, two rampantly delusional individuals making absolutely delusional comparisons, I would argue that it's actually folie à famille.
[00:02:06]  It's family madness.
[00:02:08]  And the family that has actually gone bat poop crazy is this political family that has decided its talking point, its new power through it mantra.
[00:02:20]  It's new Build Back Better.
[00:02:21]  It's new Flatten the Curve.
[00:02:23]  It's new Cross State Lines is...
[00:02:25]  I'm not saying 9-11 is comparable to January 6th, but I'm going to go ahead and compare 9-11 to January 6th.
[00:02:36]  I don't like using rhetoric like disgusting, shameful.
[00:02:42]  I don't mind using the evil rhetoric because I think this is actually evil, but disgusting, shameful.
[00:02:49]  There could be no shame where there's no honor.
[00:02:51]  And I wanna piece this, break this down.
[00:02:56]  This is Chuck Todd, by the way.
[00:02:58]  Chuck Todd, I'm watching this and I'm thinking, where does Chuck Todd, he looks so familiar.
[00:03:03]  And I was like, I know who Chuck Todd is.
[00:03:06]  Chuck Todd is Woogie from There's Something About Mary.
[00:03:10]  Oh, hold on, that's not the part.
[00:03:12]  Chuck Todd is woogie from There's Something About Mary.
[00:03:15]  I don't know what to do.
[00:03:17]  Oh, my God.
[00:03:20]  I'm not dying, man.
[00:03:24]  Come on.
[00:03:26]  This is Woogie.
[00:03:29]  No, Ted, the bad news I got is about our friend Healy.
[00:03:33]  I sent my assistant down to his apartment.
[00:03:35]  Let this sink in.
[00:03:37]  This is Woogie.
[00:03:38]  Something about Mary.
[00:03:39]  A movie that I haven't seen in 15 years.
[00:03:43]  I wonder if I would find it unfunny and terrible.
[00:03:48]  That's Woogie.
[00:03:49]  Let's get back to Chuck Todd.
[00:03:51]  Chuck Todd is Woogie.
[00:03:54]  Listen to this.
[00:03:57]  Folie à deux, folie à famille politique.
[00:04:00]  Listen to this.
[00:04:01]  We're at the 21st marking, if you will, of the September 11th attack.
[00:04:06]  21st marking?
[00:04:07]  What the hell does that mean?
[00:04:09]  It's an anniversary.
[00:04:10]  It's an anniversary of one of the...
[00:04:13]  I don't know what day could be darker.
[00:04:16]  It's an anniversary.
[00:04:18]  Marking, if you will.
[00:04:19]  What do you say?
[00:04:20]  If you will, it makes you sound smarter, Woogie?
[00:04:23]  This was a foreign terrorist.
[00:04:28]  This was a foreign terrorist attacking our democracy.
[00:04:38]  It's an interesting way of phrasing it.
[00:04:40]  A foreign terrorist attacking our democracy.
[00:04:44]  They were attacking the country.
[00:04:46]  They've attacked countries which are not democracies.
[00:04:48]  I wouldn't necessarily call it a foreign terrorist attacking.
[00:04:52]  Democracy per se.
[00:04:54]  They were definitely attacking the country.
[00:04:55]  But he's got to frame it this way so that he can segue it like a political disingenuous hack that he is.
[00:05:03]  He's got to segue it into the January 6th attack on our democracy.
[00:05:07]  He's got to.
[00:05:08]  So he's got to frame 9-11 as a terrorist attack on our democracy.
[00:05:13]  It was a terrorist attack on the country, on the people.
[00:05:16]  By extension on the democracy or the republic that is the United States.
[00:05:20]  But I wouldn't say it was first and foremost an attempt to attack the democracy, the constitutional republic that is the United States.
[00:05:27]  It was an attack on the American people.
[00:05:31]  Attacking our democracy.
[00:05:33]  Attacking this country.
[00:05:35]  We're now as a nation battling a threat from within.
[00:05:37]  Oh my.
[00:05:38]  Look at this guy.
[00:05:39]  Equal or greater than what we faced after 9-11.
[00:05:43]  Is the threat equal?
[00:05:45]  Or greater than what we faced after 9-11.
[00:05:48]  You know what's acutely missing from those options?
[00:05:51]  Is the third option.
[00:05:53]  Nowhere near as great.
[00:05:55]  And you should be ashamed of yourself for drawing the comparison.
[00:05:58]  It's like, oh, the guy from The Simpsons.
[00:06:03]  Kent Brockman.
[00:06:04]  Would you say it's time for us to panic, doctor, and go crate?
[00:06:10]  Well, yes, I would, Kent.
[00:06:12]  Would you say it's...
[00:06:13]  Equal or greater?
[00:06:14]  How about nowhere near?
[00:06:17]  Equal or greater than what we faced after 9-11.
[00:06:19]  And listen.
[00:06:21]  That's an interesting question.
[00:06:22]  That's an interesting question.
[00:06:23]  Here you got your folie a deux.
[00:06:25]  Not Chuck Todd.
[00:06:26]  That is a grotesque comparison.
[00:06:28]  You should be ashamed of yourself for having made it.
[00:06:31]  It's a desecration to the memory of the victims of 9-11.
[00:06:34]  How dare you make such a stupid comparison?
[00:06:36]  No, no, no, not that.
[00:06:37]  In our folie a deux here, in our couple spiraling off each other's madness.
[00:06:42]  It's a good question.
[00:06:43]  What did you say?
[00:06:45]  That's an interesting question.
[00:06:46]  That's an interesting question.
[00:06:47]  I have held many elected offices as district attorney.
[00:06:51]  I have many leather-bound books in my office.
[00:06:54]  Senator, now vice president.
[00:06:56]  And there's an oath that we always take, which is to defend and uphold our Constitution.
[00:07:04]  Second Amendment right, not absolute, according to this administration.
[00:07:08]  Defend our Constitution, and when the Supreme Court renders a decision that you don't like, call them extremists.
[00:07:14]  Against all enemies, foreign and domestic.
[00:07:17]  They are now equating MAGA Republicans, January Sixers, to Al-Qaeda-level terrorists.
[00:07:27]  Just let that sink in to every reasonable person who still has a remotely open mind out there.
[00:07:35]  How awful this is.
[00:07:37]  And by the way, this is not a one-off.
[00:07:39]  You got Hillary Clinton coming out saying the same thing.
[00:07:41]  You got that guy from D.C. I forget his name now.
[00:07:43]  Come here.
[00:07:44]  I'm not saying they're comparable.
[00:07:45]  I'm just going to compare them.
[00:07:47]  We don't compare the two in the oath.
[00:07:50]  We don't compare foreign terrorists and domestic.
[00:07:53]  But I'm going to equate those who partook in January 6th in as much as it might have been a violent riot.
[00:07:59]  I'm going to compare them to people who flew planes into the Twin Towers and killed 3,000 Americans on 9-11.

=== Comparing Riots (01:21) ===

[00:08:07]  I'm going to go ahead and do it, because I have standards.
[00:08:09]  I have morality.
[00:08:10]  I am not whipping up people into a political frenzy, folie affamie.
[00:08:16]  But we know they both can exist, and we must defend against it.
[00:08:21]  Look, we're at the 21st...
[00:08:23]  Wookie.
[00:08:26]  I forgot to put on slow mode.
[00:08:29]  And subscriber-only mode.
[00:08:31]  It's good to see so many bots in the house.
[00:08:35]  Must mean I'm doing something right.
[00:08:36]  I guess.
[00:08:37]  That's what they say, right?
[00:08:38]  That's what the kids say.
[00:08:39]  It means you're above the target.
[00:08:42]  Not members.
[00:08:43]  Sorry.
[00:08:43]  Subscribers.
[00:08:44]  Five minutes.
[00:08:45]  And let's go 15 seconds.
[00:08:46]  Slow-mo coming now.
[00:08:47]  You're going to lose your comments.
[00:08:48]  If you don't hit send.
[00:08:49]  Three, two, one.
[00:08:53]  Fully adieu.
[00:08:54]  By the way, everybody, I see there's 3,266 people watching here, and we are 3,553 on Rumble.
[00:09:01]  We will be moving this over to Rumble.
[00:09:03]  I'd say 30 minutes in.
[00:09:05]  No dire rush tonight, but we're going to be moving this over to Rumble.
[00:09:09]  So you might want to get the head start.
[00:09:11]  The link to Rumble is pinned.
[00:09:13]  People, let me just see.
[00:09:15]  Have we been demonetized?
[00:09:17]  Oh, I didn't put demonetization on.
[00:09:20]  I'm an idiot.
[00:09:21]  Well, let's go ahead and do that.
[00:09:23]  We'll do that for the 10 minutes that is YouTube.
[00:09:27]  Folly afami.
