Laura Ingraham: Slime and punishment

[0:00] SLIME AND PUNISHMENT, THAT'S THE [0:02] FOCUS OF TONIGHT'S ANGLE. [0:05] AFTER NEARLY, WHAT, 11 YEARS OF [0:07] BATTLING DONALD TRUMP, DEMOCRATS [0:09] HAVE LEARNED EXACTLY NOTHING. [0:12] SHOULD HE BE AFRAID OF [0:16] IMPEACHMENT? [0:17] WE HAVEN'T RULED ANYTHING IN AND [0:19] WE HAVEN'T RULED ANYTHING OUT. [0:20] WE NEED TO DO WHATEVER WE CAN [0:22] TO GET HIM OUT. [0:24] IMPEACH HIM, INVOKE THE 25TH [0:26] AMENDMENT, PUSH FOR HIM TO [0:28] RESIGN, WHATEVER IT IS. [0:30] WHATEVER IT IS. [0:32] THE DEMOCRATS WOULD REQUIRE [0:34] ACTUALLY SEEING THE DEMOCRATS [0:36] ADVANCE AN AGENDA THAT WILL GROW [0:38] THE ECONOMY AND HELP THE MIDDLE [0:39] CLASS. [0:40] DEMOCRATS DON'T HAVE TIME FOR [0:42] THAT TYPE OF HARD WORK AND [0:45] ANALYSIS. [0:46] AXIOS IS REPORTING THAT IF [0:48] DEMOCRATS TAKE CONTROL OF THE [0:49] HOUSE, THEIR MOST VOCAL, [0:51] IMPASSION, COMMITTED LEFT-WINGERS [0:53] WILL LAUNCH AN IMPEACHMENT [0:55] INQUIRY AGAINST PRESIDENT TRUMP. [0:57] ILLINOIS CONGRESSWOMAN DELIA [0:59] RAMIREZ IS URGING COLLEAGUES TO [1:01] PUNISH THE DEMOCRATS. [1:03] THE DEMOCRATS WOULD REQUIRE A [1:05] CASE WITH A CONCRETE AND [1:07] COORDINATED STRATEGY. [1:08] THEN ARIZONA CONGRESSMAN [1:10] YASIMEIN ANSARI SAID THE PUSH [1:13] FOR IMPEACHMENT WILL BE [1:14] OVERWHELMING. [1:15] LOOK, THE DEMOCRATS, THEY USED [1:17] TO HAVE SOME BASIS FOR SAYING [1:19] THAT THEY EMBRACE PROGRESS, [1:20] THEY'RE THOUGHTFUL. [1:22] BUT NOW THEY'RE JUST ALL ABOUT [1:24] PUNISHMENT. [1:25] RACISM, SEXISM, AND OF COURSE [1:27] ELECTING DONALD TRUMP TWICE. [1:28] AND OF COURSE THEY HAVE TO [1:30] PUNISH TRUMP HIMSELF. [1:31] REMEMBER HOW MUCH TIME THEIR [1:33] FIRST TRUMP IMPEACHMENT AID UP [1:35] BACK IN 2019? [1:36] THE INQUIRY WAS ANNOUNCED ON [1:39] SEPTEMBER 24TH. [1:40] THE HOUSE OFFICIALLY VOTED TO [1:42] IMPEACH HIM ON DECEMBER 18TH. [1:44] AND THE SENATE ACQUITTED HIM ON [1:46] FEBRUARY 5TH. [1:47] SO IT TOOK ALL TOTALS ABOUT [1:49] THREE MONTHS OR SO IN THE HOUSE. [1:51] AND IT TOOK THE TRIAL 21 DAYS [1:54] IN THE SENATE. [1:55] IT WAS OVER A PHONE CALL, [1:56] REMEMBER. [1:58] AND THEN IN MID-JANUARY 2021, [2:00] THEY WERE AT IT AGAIN. [2:02] THIS TIME IT WAS OVER JANUARY 6TH, [2:05] CHARGING DONALD TRUMP WITH [2:07] INCITING AN INSURRECTION. [2:08] OKAY. [2:09] IT WAS JUST PREPOSTEROUS. [2:10] THAT ONLY TOOK ABOUT A MONTH. [2:12] BUT IT WAS SO DRAMATIC. [2:14] REMEMBER WHEN MITT ROMNEY VOTED [2:16] WITH THE DEMOCRATS IN THE SENATE? [2:18] HE DID THAT BIG VIDEO. [2:20] HE DID THAT BIG VIDEO. [2:22] HE DID THAT BIG VIDEO. [2:23] HE DID THAT BIG VIDEO. [2:24] IT WAS HARD TO DO THIS. [2:25] REMEMBER THAT? [2:27] BUT THEY STILL FAILED TO CONVICT. [2:29] BUT DEMOCRATS SOUGHT THE [2:31] REBUKE OF IMPEACHMENT. [2:32] THAT WOULD HOBBLE TRUMP. [2:34] BUT IN 2020, IT WASN'T IMPEACHMENT, [2:36] BUT A PANDEMIC AND MASS MAIL-IN [2:38] BALLOTS THAT GAVE IT TO BIDEN. [2:39] AND THE JANUARY 6TH IMPEACHMENT [2:41] DIDN'T MATTER EITHER BECAUSE [2:42] FOUR YEARS LATER, DONALD TRUMP [2:43] WOULD BE PRESIDENT AGAIN. [2:44] IT DIDN'T WORK. [2:45] WHY? [2:46] BECAUSE BIDEN HIMSELF AND HIS [2:49] POLICIES DISASTERS. [2:51] SO WHEN THE DEMOCRATS DO FINALLY [2:54] GET AROUND TO POLICY, EVERYTHING [2:56] THEY DID MADE AMERICA WEAKER AND [2:58] MORE VULNERABLE. [2:59] EXTENDING COVID RESTRICTIONS. [3:00] REMEMBER ALL THAT? [3:01] TRIGGERING INFLATION. [3:03] THE ABBYGATE DEBACLE. [3:05] THE OPEN BORDER. [3:08] WE CAN NEVER LET AMERICA FORGET [3:10] THIS. [3:11] FOR SOME DEMOCRATS, IT'S ALMOST [3:13] BECOME AN ADDICTION. [3:14] WE HAVE TO ASK DR. DREW TO HELP [3:16] US WITH IT. [3:17] AL GREEN TRIED IT LAST JUNE. [3:19] THAT WAS ONLY FIVE MONTHS INTO [3:21] THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY. [3:22] CONGRESSMAN GREEN. [3:23] AND OF COURSE THAT WENT DOWN IN [3:25] TOTAL FLAMES IN THE HOUSE. [3:26] THEY'VE GIVEN UP ON GOVERNING [3:28] ALTOGETHER THOUGH. [3:29] AGAIN, THEY'RE ONLY INTO [3:31] PUNISHING. [3:32] THAT'S THEIR FETISH. [3:34] AND WE SAW THIS WITH CROSSFIRE [3:36] HURRICANE AND THAT CREW, HOW [3:38] THEY OPERATED. [3:39] THEIR METHODS, IN THE END, END [3:42] UP BEING DIVISIVE AND TOTALLY [3:45] ANTIDEMOCRATIC, TRYING TO [3:46] UNDERMINE THE PRESIDENT'S FIRST [3:47] TERM. [3:48] BUT THE PUNISHMENT, WE HAVE TO [3:51] REMEMBER, IT DOES HAVE A [3:52] PURPOSE. [3:53] THEY NEVER WANT ANYONE LIKE [3:55] TRUMP, A CANDIDATE WITH HIS [3:57] POPULIST IDEAS, TO RUN AGAIN. [3:58] EVER. [4:00] REMEMBER WHAT TRUMP DID. [4:02] HE BUSTED THE MONOPOLY THAT THE [4:04] DEMOCRATS HAD ON THE HISPANIC [4:05] VOTE. [4:06] HE MOVED SOME BLACK VOTERS INTO [4:08] THE R COLUMN. [4:09] ANYONE OVER WORKING-CLASS UNION [4:11] TYPES AS WELL. [4:12] AND OF COURSE HE SHUT DOWN THE [4:14] BORDER WHICH MEANS FEWER [4:15] POTENTIAL DEMOCRATS AND LESS [4:17] MONEY FOR THE CORRUPT LEFT-WING [4:19] NGOs. [4:20] SO IF THAT TREND CONTINUES, [4:22] REGARDLESS OF WHAT HAPPENS IN [4:23] NOVEMBER IN THE MIDTERMS, THE [4:25] LIBERALS ARE COOKED. [4:26] THIS IS WHY THE IMPEACHMENT AND [4:28] PUNISHMENT FIXATION IS WHAT [4:29] THEY HAVE. [4:30] AND IT'S REPEATED BY JAMES CARVILLE. [4:32] A FEW WEEKS BACK HE SAID, YOU [4:33] KNOW, THIS IS WHAT THEY ARE GOING [4:35] TO DO EXCEPT NOW TRUMP'S FAMILY [4:37] WILL ALSO BE IN THE DEMOCRATS [4:38] CROSSHAIRS. [4:39] I KNOW HOW MANY ARE [4:41] FRUSTRATED BY GAS PRICES AND [4:42] THE COST OF THINGS. [4:43] BUT IT IS WORTH REMEMBERING THAT [4:45] THE PUNISHMENT PARTY WILL STOP [4:47] AT NOTHING TO FORCE A PERMANENT [4:50] MAJORITY, INCLUDING PACKING THE [4:51] COURT AND RAMMING THROUGH [4:53] IMMIGRATION AMNESTY FOR AT LEAST [4:55] 25 MILLION ILLEGALS. [4:56] SO IF YOU TRULY WANT A BETTER [4:58] STANDARD OF LIVING, IF YOU WANT [5:00] SAFER NEIGHBORHOODS, BETTER [5:02] SCHOOLS, THE LEFT IS GOING TO [5:04] FAIL YOU EVERY TIME. [5:05] AND THAT'S THE ANGLE. [5:18] THE NEXT ONE.
