So you were one of the very first American politicians to weigh in on this election,
you were paying attention, which I appreciated.
What do you make of this?
>> I'm so excited, it's funny I looked this Italian miss Meloni up,
when I heard about her about a week ago and
I couldn't find any just straight up information on her.
Everything was she's a fascist, she's a racist, she's this,
she's that, and I thought, wow.
>> So more of that video in a second.
But I'm sorry, you looked for information and you got it,
fascist isn't a meaningless word.
That's Carry Lake, she's a gubernatorial candidate out in Arizona and former
news anchor, that's her on Tucker Carlson and it gets more unhinged, let's watch.
She's a fascist, she's a racist, she's this, she's that, and I thought, wow, this
is somebody who I can relate to because they're doing the same thing about me.
>> Miss Meloni chicks a fascist, she's just like me for real.
>> [LAUGH] It's amazing what they say, man.
I mean, there's, okay, so let's start at the beginning when she says, I looked
up this italian and I thought for sure she was gonna say, bird like Austin Powers.
I looked at this italian bird Meloni that they're talking about and
I couldn't figure out what she's for.
They just calling her fascists and stuff.
Well, there's a reason why they're calling her fascist.
It's in the articles, it's because her party used to be a neo fascist party.
It's they're not picking it out of thin air,
that it was literally a neo fascist party earlier.
She's like, I don't know why they're calling her fascist.
Well, I don't know why don't you, why don't you read, read the article and
then you'll know why.
And she's like, [INAUDIBLE] I couldn't find any of her policies,
man google harder.
It doesn't take much, every article has her policies.
We did the story yesterday, I googled it, it was easy, okay.
And our policies, yes, carry are a lot like yours, anti immigration,
we have to preserve our tradition and our culture and the others are very brown and
scary and we have to get rid of the violent islam, right?
So it's very very similar to you, and
that's why the last part does make sense when she was like, well,
they're calling her fascist and racist, just like me, right?
Now, she adds, and you saw that we're not gonna take it, like,
the right wing would end the clip earlier and not tell you that she means,
as in their falsely maligning me and her, right?
That's her intent, we know that and we're sharing that with you guys.
Is it false though?
[LAUGH] So that's the key part, sometimes they'll smear progresses make sure media
will, but then you have to show how it's false.
You see here, for example, once New York times called me anti muslim,
my background is muslim, they didn't note that, that's weird.
See that's me proving how they're smearing me.
And they're like,
I just call as fast as a racist because we hate brown people on Muslims [LAUGH].
>> No, you just proved their point, not the opposite.
Yeah,yeah, it's really interesting Carry Lake, she's running in Arizona, but
she endorsed Jaren Jackson who's running for legislator in Oklahoma,
and he said, the jews are evidence that evil exists.
This is someone Carry Lake endorsed as a candidate.
>> And by the way, I'm just gonna jump in, went way out of her way to endorse.
I mean, it's a great point.
It ain't anywhere near Arizona.
She's like,
there's an anti semite out there who says the jews are the problem, I'm in.
I don't know why they're calling me a fascist.
Well, that might be part of the reason Kerry.
>> [LAUGH] I don't think she can define fascists properly, if we asked her,
to be entirely honest.
What's interesting is she ran an ad.
It was like an over a million dollar ad buy.
And it's hard Like the things you've heard about me aren't true and
exactly like Jenks said, didn't debunk her record at all.
It just was like, I have a husband and a family.
And I grew up in Iowa and worked really hard.
It's like, okay, are you gonna address any of the allegations that you're a racist
or fascist?
No, I guess not, somehow though, This video does get worse.
Let's watch.
>> If they're not calling you all of these slurs.
If they're not attacking you,
then you're probably not truly representing the people of your country.
>> Democracy is one fascism.
We've figured it out.
>> Yeah. >> We've got it.
I guess maybe their slogan could be fascism first.
>> [LAUGH] >> Look, if you're not being credibly
accused of being a fascist, then obviously you're not trying hard enough.
That was the essence of her statement there because she assumes
the country isn't for everyone, it's not for Mexican-Americans,
it's not for blacks, it's not for jews, okay.
It's just for people, the right kind of people and you're not representing
them well enough unless you're being accused of being a fascist.
So in a sense she does mean it,
because she assumes that America should be just white and christian.
And so that's why she thinks you're not trying hard enough.
If you're not being accused of being racist because you hate brown people and
you wanna drive him out of the country, you're not trying hard enough for
the real America, white America and Tucker Carlson of course loves it.
He's like, bravo, bravo, yes, being called the fascist is awesome.
That's why I went over to Hungary and
hung out with Viktor Orban who is actually teaching a master's class in fascism.
And for no goddamn reason out of all the countries in the world.
Hey, look at that, Hungary, I happen to stumble upon the one fascist leader?
Funny how that works.
>> Things are really bad in Arizona, this is the state where Andy Biggs is from.
And Andy Biggs said that the reason his constituents need assault
weapons is to address the assault coming over the southern border,
people migrating to the United States.
That's why people need assault weapons.
They really do believe that non-white people are less than people and
shouldn't be a part of the society.
So it follows that Kerry Lake is using this logic
that you're not being called a fascist unless you represent the people.
And if you're not called a fascist, you certainly don't do that because
the people, they are interested in representing our white people.
But surely, more moderate women and Democrats are denouncing Meloni, right?
Wrong.
Look at this tweet from Megan McCain, she said,
everyone wants a woman in power until it's a conservative woman in power.
Now, she didn't say who this tweet was about but
the timing is pretty damning here.
Seems like it was about Meloni.
And then we have Hillary Clinton.
So from the atlantic, the election of the first prime minister in a country
always represents a break with the past and is certainly a good thing.
Hillary Clinton said to an italian journalist at
the Venice International Film Festival earlier this month.
She was speaking of Georgia Meloni, a member of the chamber of deputies,
who could make history if the brothers of Italy Party does as well expected
in Sunday's elections, or does as well as expected in Sunday's elections.
So I'm sorry, Hillary Clinton is saying it's progress if a fascist gets elected so
long so as it is a woman.
That makes no sense to me.
I'm sorry,
women's rights are gonna be stripped away when fascists get into power.
But the thing is,
is that Hillary Clinton hates socialists much more than she hates fascists.
She hates Bernie Sanders a lot more than she hates this fascist simply
because she is a woman.
>> Yeah, to be fair to Hillary Clinton.
>> I don't think we should [LAUGH].
No, no you'll see, to be fair to her, it was largely her platform here in America.
She said, who cares what I'm for, I'm a woman, okay.
And her campaign slogans was, I'm with her.
Wait, aren't you supposed to be with us?
You're supposed to represent us?
No, it was self centered and
it was all about forget that I took money from the banks and
made sure that you couldn't get rid of your student debt on behalf of the banks.
Forget all the corruption I ever did.
It's okay because I'm a woman.
So it's not that surprising that she would then turn around and say, yeah, she's
a fascist, but hey, she's a woman, because that's been her ideology all along.
So, and as you can tell here, we're not like right wing media,
we criticize Democrats without blinking.
And I, we don't care about Democrats or Republicans,
we only care about what's right and wrong.
It'd be amazing if corporate media and right wing media work the same way but
they don't.
>> It's really the crisis with identity politics, isn't it?
Because Hillary Clinton is like, vote for
me will have progress because it's a woman in office, I'm sorry.
I would rather have Bernie Sanders who's actually fighting for Medicare for all how
many women die year over year because they don't have access to health care.
Women would fare far better in our country with Bernie Sanders in office who is a man
than Hillary Clinton, who is a woman that's very obvious to me.
And it's a common criticism of people like Barack Obama,
we got a black president, but was he someone that fundamentally fighting for
the liberation of black people in America?
I would argue that that wasn't a key tenant of his presidency and
not something he'll be remembered for.
So this kind of tokenism and having the person with the identity in the of power,
it's not enough, it's really not enough.
So look, progressives have to defend folks
when the right wing attacks based on identity, right?
So we do that.
We're forced to do that, especially because the Democratic Party and
the establishment and corporate media love identity politics, but
they don't actually like to fight the wars, right?
They made the right wing attacks, they run and they leave us in the trenches,
but do they actually care about protecting trans people, black people, women, etc.
No, it's just a gimmick to them, righ?
Right, so hey, we're gonna do the corporate agend, who do we need?
Okay, we need a woman, okay, we need someone who's South-Asian, who cares,
just grab them and we say a problem fixed.
I got your woman.
It's the same exact policy, change on the outside continuity on the inside,
problem solved.
They're using it for their own honestly sick political ambitions.
And look guys, it's does don't stand up to any argument at all, But yet
you will see it everywhere in mainstream media.
In fact, MSNBC and new york times, if they see this segment,
they will attack us using identity politics.
I know it, I've lived it, right?
So here's the easy example I was gonna tell you.
Doctoris would be the first Turkish American senator in American history.
I'm Turkish, there's not that many of us, that's kind of cool, right.
Is it cool enough to vote for a Trump loving right wing idiot.
No, no, it's not.
I don't get like I care 1%, 1/2a percent, 9.1% that he's Turkish or and
and that theoretically muslim, I care 99.9% that he's supporting Trump who
said Muslims should be banned from the country.
That's not hard to understand, right?
But for if you're on MSNBC Thtat is bewildering.
They're like, well, I don't get it, I don't.
Hillary is a woman and these damn progressives are voting against her.
That is outrageous.
They must hate all women.
They they hate women, they hate women, they're sexist.
Okay great, don't worry, you got Nina turner running in Cleveland.
She's a woman.
It doesn't count.
She's black Barack, Obama Hillary clinton.
That doesn't count.
Doesn't count.
Why doesn't it count?
She's done in favor of the corporate general.
I mean did No I didn't I didn't.
Did I say that out loud Media in this country is disgusting.
Yeah, the queer Cisneros thing was just awful.
Absolutely insane.
