Congressional Democrat 1: We are gonna fight in every way we can. In the courts, in public opinion, with the bully pulpit, in the halls of Congress and here at the AID itself.
Congressional Democrat 2: This is all a smoke screen, a shell game in order to turn this government over to a handful of unelected billionaires and corporate interests. And we are not going to let them do that.
Jamie Raskin (D): Just like Elon Musk did not create US aid, he doesn’t have the power to destroy it. And who’s gonna stop him? We are, we’re gonna stop him.
Democrat Activist: Jen Psaki: Okay. That’s the fire. That’s the life I’m talking about now. After that press conference, members even tried to get inside the shuttered USAID building. And I’m gonna talk to one of those members, Senator Chris Van Holland (D), in just a few minutes. So we’re seeing some signs of light. There needs to be more. But they’re trying at some encouraging news, some much needed encouraging news. And we’re seeing this not just among elected officials or politicians, but among unelected people, people who have spent their career serving the public and have now found themselves caught in the crosshairs of this hostile takeover trying to stand up for what’s right. A USAID. Yes, Elon Musk pushed the director of security and his deputy out, but not before they tried to stop Musk people from gaining access to restricted spaces at the agency. At the Treasury Department, a career civil servant was pushed up because he refused to give Musk’s team access to that federal payment system that they eventually bullied their way into. And at the FBI, acting FBI Director Brian Driscoll refused the Justice Department order that he assist in the firing of agents involved in January six cases, reportedly pushing back so forcefully that some FBI officials feared that he would be dismissed. One FBI, FBI agent summarized what happened like this. Bottom line: DOJ came over and wanted to fire a bunch of J6 agents. Driscoll is an absolute stud, held this ground and told White House proxy DOJ to f off. It’s pretty bold.
And look, when you’re fighting against the president of the United States and his billionaire sidekick with vengeance, you are fighting an uphill battle to be real. But they’re still fighting. They’re still standing up for what’s right, even if it means putting their own jobs at jeopardy. And that is important. Because at the end of the day, what these past weeks have made clear is that this takeover is going to proceed unchecked unless there are efforts to check it. In other words, there’s no cavalry coming. You are the cavalry, elected officials, governors, civil servants, all of you sitting at home. You are the cavalry to stop this. And we will be here, right here, to talk about what’s happening or bolder action and voices are needed. We will call that out. We will keep our eyes open, we won’t look away. And we will continue to shine the light on the people standing up for what is right.
Jen Psaki has an unchecked opinion and Democrat propaganda on her very fake news show. Psaki held various roles during the Obama/Biden administration. She also served as Press Secretary under Biden and Harris. This experience landed her a show on MSNBC, one of the most partisan “news” channels on cable. However, Jen Psaki isn’t a journalist; she’s a Democrat activist, an advisor to Democrats, a cheerleader for the DNC, and a spokesperson for Democrats and the corrupt U.S. government they control. She is stirring the audience on national TV. Psaki doesn’t stand up for what is right; she stands up for her paycheck and Democrats.
