>> Did he say anything leading to this?
Or did he just literally pull out a knife and just start stabbing him?
>> He just pulled out a knife and started stabbing him.
>> So what you're seeing there is a Navy SEAL who's being interviewed by Navy investigators
about the experience of being abroad and serving with Edward Gallagher, a former SEAL who has
made a big name for himself, especially in right wing circles this year.
After he was accused of multiple war crimes and then found himself a celebrity for Pete
Hansen and Fox and Friends and eventually Donald Trump as well.
He has since been acquitted of most of the crimes, but there are still big concerns.
And these tapes coming out now, some of the quotes from these SEALs are just amazing.
Let's run through a few.
First of all, in case you're not familiar with Chief Gallagher, a platoon member say
that they had seen him shooting civilians and fatally stabbing a wounded captive with
a hunting knife.
Three SEALs said that they saw him go to a sedated captive for no reason, stab him to
death and then hold an impromptu re-enlistment ceremony over the body, as if it were a trophy.
And so in general terms, what is this person like?
According to the man that have serve with him.
Well, one said asked whether the chief had a bias against Middle Eastern people special
operators Scott replied.
I think he just wants to kill anybody he can.
Another special operator said the guy is freaking evil.
A third said the guy was toxic and a fourth said you could tell he was perfectly okay
with killing anybody that was moving.
>> Okay.
>> And so this person you might have seen if you were invited to the Mar-a-Lago Trump
Christmas party, he was partying it up there with the President.
>> So I wanna remind everybody, including the President, that all the people that you
just heard from are on SEAL Team 7, Alpha Platoon.
So when you go after them, which they invariably will, I mean Gallagher already has, understand
that they're going after SEAL Team 7, every other member.
And so they like to hide behind the troops at every turn.
Here I had to give a giant amount of money to the Pentagon support the troops.
No, you don't, your troops make income and guys make about $19,000 a year, okay?
I support a deal Eddie Gallagher because he kills random Muslims.
but I support the troops, no you don't, you don't support the rest of SEAL Team 7 who
say that Gallagher is evil and will kill anything in his path.
Civilian or otherwise, one of the folks he's accused of killing was a 12 year old and it
is other SEAL Team 7 members saying watch out, this guy is a huge problem.
So now they will attack the military again and they'll attack the other people who are,
why would all of them lie together?
That doesn't make any sense at all.
But they'll hide behind false patriotism and false support of the troops to support monstrous
people like Gallagher, so?
>> I agree with you both.
I mean look, anyone trying to raise a child right now in this era when the human it is
encouraged to run free and do whatever it wants is facing a real obstacle.
How do I tell my kid don't be a racist and respect women?
Don't lie, do your homework, don't mock disabled people and then watch this this should be
a slam dunk when you're debating with your Conservative Christian loved ones over the
holidays.
You don't get to call yourself a Christian and play dumb about this.
This guy was a serial killer who was in the military so he could do it for legal ways.
And the most damning thing about it is as you pointed out, how rare is it for SEAL team
members to actually come out publicly and talk about what they do?
When professional killers say that someone is killing too much, we should lean in and
listen.
They could have impeached this guy one minute into his inaugural address for violating the
emoluments clauses.
Now, you can throw war crimes on top of it.
It's an impeachable offense and it's an insult to every serviceman and woman, and every man
and woman who manages every day to contain themselves and not murder people.
When Muslims don't trust us it's because of stuff like this.
>> And guys, I know right wingers hate Muslims so anytime we talk about valuing the life
of a Muslim they just turn off.
They go, no wonder, these guys are soft, why don't we just murder them, right?
But it isn't about them.
Yes, it's important and obviously we should care about that.
But it's about us, it's about who are we?
Are we a country of laws?
Do we have a military that is decent and that follows international law, doesn't commit
war crimes?
Or if you say no, we shouldn't, we should just let them go and let there be no order
in the military at all.
Basically the some degree of chaos and let them murder whoever they like whether their
combatant, civilians 12 years old or not.
Okay, then you you are arguing that America should be the bad guy.
>> Yeah.
>> I mean that's what the Nazis did, that's what the Al Qaeda does, that's what ISIS does.
Chop off their heads, who cares?
Who cares about international law?
Who cares about morality and decency?
Let's just kill them all.
Well, okay, then maybe you should go and join one of those groups, instead of being in the
United States military, which is supposed to have honor.
And all those guys did have honor, with one notable exception, the guy that Donald Trump
enthusiastically backed.
>> And if you wanna kill Muslims cuz you're a Christian, stop calling yourself a Christian,
you are not, you are using that cloaking device for your own evil, and people are tired of
it especially around this time of the year.
This country hasn't legally declared war since 1941.
These were even legal prisoners of war.
The whole thing is sketchy as hell.
And this is the tipping point, this should be the tipping point for anyone who still
believes a guy who stole from vets with a scam online university cares about vets.
>> Yeah, and so I believe you alluded too that they don't often come out and talk about
the SEALs.
>> They didn't.
>> They don't often reveal.
Exactly, we can't say for sure exactly why they have.
But we do know one reason is in the interviews they alluded to the fact that they believe
that he had been purposefully exposing them to enemy fire to draw out enemy soldiers that
he could shoot at.
And they started to believe among themselves that he wouldn't mind if a few of them had
been killed because it might make him seem more distinguished.
>> He wanted a silver star.
>> Yeah.
>> And that's why he wanted to have such a high body count.
>> Yeah, and so if you justify, well, he can kill as many Muslims as he want, I don't care,
they're trying to kill our soldiers.
His soldiers believe that he was trying to get them killed, so you should oppose him
for all the same reasons.
>> And by the way, what is Gallagher done now?
He has called all the rest of the people in SEALl Team 7 Alpha Platoon cowards.
Of course, no, you're the only brave one.
The only one brave one who kills people after they're already captured.
>> He kills children.
>> Right, he kills children, he kills the wounded, he kills old man.
You're the brave one, right?
And everyone else on SEAL Team 7 is coward.
Do any of you believe that?
If you do, there's something deeply wrong with you.
You should get psychological counseling.
You should not be allowed to have a weapon, and you're a danger to yourself and others.
If you think the guy that every other military person is saying is a murderer and a danger
to everyone, and has committed war crimes.
They're all wrong and cowards, but the one murderer guy is awesome.
If you believe that you're either named Donald Trump or you're a trump acting like and you
like people who kill civilians, you like people who kill 12 year olds, and that's who you
are.
>> And the amazing thing too is they even had been accused of multiple war crimes and
eventually got off of them except for posing with the body.
>> Right.
>> Because we have the photo you can see it.
And so but he claims that he didn't execute the person, even though multiple people says
he did.
It's still sort of weird.
>> He post it like a trophy.
Because take the body and pose with it.
Also one additional fact, I talked about this on the damage board this morning.
He had earlier on Instagram, I believe this was before going off to war.
He had a knife made, he had a special knife made, and he posted about how he couldn't
wait to dig it in someone's skull.
And so when you're accused of having gone up to execute someone with a knife, it makes
it a little bit more believable at that point, especially added on to the multiple eyewitnesses
that say he did it.
>> I love Young Turks followers, and I know a lot of Young Turks followers are, of course,
atheists and non-believers.
But this is why you need to remember your old Bible studies more than ever.
Because we have to stop these people from using the cloak of Christianity.
That is their get out of hell free card in the media.
The media plays along and never questions it.
No, anyone supporting this, has to be called out.
They don't get to drink themselves and baby Jesus anymore.
They have rejected it, these guys voted for Caligula, Barabas and the golden calf.
They gotta be called out this is literally war crimes and murder.
>> And last thing guys, so it's a thing not allowing people to hide behind things like
Christianity.
They don't get to hide behind military supporting the troops when they say they're defending
Eddie Gallagher, because that means you're saying the rest of SEAL Team 7 were cowards
and liars.
Is that what you're saying?
Because let's be very clear about this, because that's what Gallagher say.
Trump by supporting him wholeheartedly.
That's what he's saying.
Look, I've got people I know that that are family members that voted for Trump.
So I'm not saying everyone who voted for Trump in 2016 is a terrible person obviously not,
right?
But they some of them say, they didn't know some of them still want to bury their head
in the sand some of them want to bury their head and Fox News.
Okay, but if you know, and you're with the war criminal rather than the rest of SEAL
Team 7, then you don't believe in the United States military and you don't believe in our
form of government.
So please get out, get out of the country go move to Saudi Arabia or some other theocracy
where they murder people wantonly.
You're really enjoyed, but this country is not for you.
>> And one other thing we should mention though is that the issue with this is not just that
right wingers were so quick to defend him despite all the evidence.
They don't care about what any of the people who served him said.
It's not just that Trump tweeted in support of him.
It's not even just that he's inviting him to his Christmas party, which is just, it's
sick on a whole new level.
It's that this guy is gonna be everywhere next year on the campaign trail-
>> Yep.
>> With Trump and with other Republican.
He's just waiting to run for some offices for himself.
And and what's so amazing about it is that if you were to ask these right-wingers who
suddenly believe that he's huge hero.
They wouldn't be able to tell you anything about his military record except the war crimes
that he has been accused of.
They don't mind that he has been accused of killing children and the elderly and prisoners
of war.
That's why they know who he is.
That's why they care about him.
>> This endangers the safety of our troops.
There is no reason for any Muslims to believe Americans anymore when they see that you can
literally murder us, go through the charade of military justice and then have this reality
show racist clown give you a pass.
