  • The Europeans will never abandon
  • Ukraine. Never.
  • World leaders are absolutely furious at
  • Donald Trump and his regime. That was
  • French President Emanuel Mcronone at the
  • Palace of Westminster as part of his
  • state visit to the United Kingdom. He
  • was speaking there in front of the
  • British Parliament making a very strong
  • defense of Ukraine as the United States
  • looks weaker and more isolated. Just by
  • way of example, what's now an average
  • night for Ukraine cities, it's midnight
  • last night when this was posted by the
  • Kev Insider. And currently, there was
  • around 220 Russian Iranian kamicazi
  • drones bearing down on the people of
  • Ukraine, their homes, their apartment
  • buildings, and civilians. And one of the
  • things that Donald Trump did was
  • withhold a massive amount of Patriot
  • missile systems from Ukraine only for
  • Donald Trump to then claim that he
  • didn't know that his own regime stopped
  • sending those Patriot missiles to

  • 1:00
  • Ukraine. And then they're blaming it on
  • Pete Hegsith and said Hegsith was the
  • one who did it without the consent or
  • permission from the Trump regime. It's
  • absolute chaos in the Trump regime right
  • now. Let me tell you about more data
  • points. How the United States has made
  • the entire world furious. I guess the
  • entire world other than Vladimir Putin,
  • Iran, Kim Jong-un, and Xi Jinping of
  • China who are probably delighted to see
  • the United States so weak. So, Donald
  • Trump announced yesterday just randomly
  • during this disastrous cabinet meeting
  • that he will be imposing a 50% tariff on
  • copper and he reiterated he will be
  • doing 200% tariffs on pharmaceuticals.
  • Now, Canada is a major exporter of
  • copper to the United States. exported
  • about $9.3 billion worth of copper in
  • 2023 with a majority of that 52% going
  • to the United States, China, and Japan

  • 2:00
  • uh followed with 17 and 12% of Canadian
  • exports um respectively. Now, in Canada,
  • um they now see the United States as a
  • massive threat. According to a Pew
  • Research study that was just released,
  • 59% of Canadians view the United States
  • as a major risk. According to the study,
  • I just want you to think about that. 59%
  • of Canadians view the United States as a
  • major risk and now see the neighboring
  • United States as the greatest threat to
  • their country. As this article from
  • Politico says, never mind Russia, North
  • Korea, and Iran. A majority of Canadian
  • citizens now see the neighboring United
  • States as the greatest threat to their
  • country. Right. Let me bring you back to
  • the Palace of Westminster for this
  • incredible speech by French President
  • Emanuel Mcronone. It very much also
  • reminds me of the speech that I
  • previously showed you of Prime Minister

  • 3:00
  • Mark Carney of Canada when he talked
  • about the new defense pack between
  • Canada and the European Union where you
  • had Carney saying we are looking away
  • from the United States towards Europe.
  • Here you have the UK um which in Brexit
  • left the European Union and you have
  • French President Emanuel Mcronone
  • obviously a leading force in the
  • European Union and you see that this is
  • all about bridging the gaps right here
  • as America becomes weaker and more
  • isolated. Watch this incredible portion
  • of this speech from French President
  • Emanuel Mcronone as part of his state
  • visit at the Palace of Westminster.
  • Let's play it. creates the necessary
  • conditions for a robust and solid
  • lasting peace.
  • I want to commend your country
  • since the first day and even before the
  • first day. You were part of the closest
  • ally of Ukraine,
  • training the army, being here the first

  • 4:00
  • day to protect President Zalinski,
  • his government,
  • and allowing their forces just to resist
  • as you did decades ago with my country.
  • And together we worked very hard during
  • the past few years in order to stand
  • with the Ukrainian people just helping
  • them to resist.
  • We were right and we are right.
  • And because every time Vladimir Putin's
  • Russia advances in Ukraine, the threat
  • moves closer to us all. We will never
  • accept the theory that might is right.
  • And I want to be clear. This is why
  • together with you, Mr. Prime Minister,
  • we decided to launch last February this
  • coalition of the willing mention and
  • this coalition was just a signal that
  • Europeans will never abandon Ukraine.
  • Never.

  • 5:01
  • [Applause]
  • And whatever the decisions could be
  • elsewhere,
  • we will fight till the very last minute
  • in order to get the ceasefire, in order
  • to start the negotiations to build this
  • robust
  • and sustainable peace. because this is
  • our security and our principles together
  • which are at stake in Ukraine. This is
  • the possibility of a European peace
  • our generation did enjoy during the past
  • decade which is at stake in Ukraine.
  • Now speaking of Canada, I recently had
  • former member of parliament and leader
  • of the resistance Charlie Angus on my
  • program. He said, 'Look, one of the
  • things that I think is so important
  • right now um is going to be for uh

  • 6:02
  • Canada um to start basically buying
  • drones from uh Ukraine in order to
  • protect its borders from the United
  • States.' Here, play this clip.
  • But this is a very, very sick and dark
  • exhibition. So, when we look at this as
  • the people that we're negotiating with,
  • Canadians need to be really ready. uh we
  • are upping our investment in uh military
  • spending significantly. We are now
  • procuring from the Europeans whereas
  • before we would have just gone to the
  • United States as per usual and buy gear.
  • We're not buying gear from the United
  • States. I don't know what the prime
  • minister is thinking, but if I was him,
  • I'd be inviting over Ukrainians to start
  • setting up factories so that we can set
  • up those $100 drones because it's our
  • border, it's our waterways, uh our
  • lakes, and our harbors that are now
  • seriously under threat because we don't
  • know where Trump is going to go. I I

  • 7:00
  • know in the media and Canada, they don't
  • want to talk about that. They don't want
  • to act like they're being hysterical.
  • But when you're seeing a pro a president
  • of the United States setting up
  • concentration camps and bragging about
  • people being eaten by alligators, people
  • whose only crime is they got picked up
  • by ICE, then the idea that we can trust
  • them at our border is simply not on. We
  • have to start getting ourselves ready
  • for what could be uh then the the next
  • part of the playbook. So, if you own a
  • handgun for self-defense the way that I
  • do, your storage likely fits into one of
  • two frustrating categories. It's either
  • locked away, safe but out of reach in an
  • emergency, or it's unsecured, leaving it
  • vulnerable to anyone. Not good. But,
  • Stopbox USA, which is what I use, they
  • saw the problem and they designed a
  • groundbreaking solution, the Stopbox
  • Pro. So, with the Stopbox Pro, you'll
  • never have to choose between security
  • and readiness again. Its ingenious push
  • button locking system gives you fast,

  • 8:01
  • reliable access when every second
  • matters without the hassle of keys or
  • reliance on batteries. It's 100%
  • mechanical, so it works every time. No
  • power needed. With Stopbox USA, you can
  • finally have bold security and
  • readiness. The Stopbox Pros mechanical
  • keyless system allows for fast, secure
  • access without the risk of fumbling for

  • really important, you know, for me to
  • have Stopbox. Um, I own a handgun for
  • self-defense and you know, I think it's
  • important that if you're a responsible
  • gun owner, you use a device like
  • Stopbox. Stopbox is what I use. Thank
  • you so much and check them out. Now,
  • here is also another clip from uh
  • Charlie Angus, former member of
  • Parliament and leader of the resistance.
  • He had a message to Donald Trump as
  • well, saying how Donald Trump was
  • bringing Canadians together. Let's play
  • this clip.
  • Well, Donald Trump, I'm going to say
  • this once and I might never say it
  • again. I want to thank you. I want to
  • thank you for bringing Canada together.

  • 10:01
  • Uh it took such a malignant narcissistic
  • slug like you to make us put aside all
  • of our differences, all our regional
  • fights, all of our concerns with each
  • other and realize that we actually had
  • to stand up for something better, which
  • is standing up for the rule of law,
  • standing up for democracy, standing up
  • for decency. And we know that we're on
  • your border and it freaks you out
  • because you and your incel gang are so
  • freaked out about diversity, equity,
  • inclusion, your DEI nightmare. Well, we
  • are your DEI nightmare, Donald, because
  • Canada is always going to be a country
  • of diversity. We will always be a
  • country of equity. We will always be a
  • country of inclusion. And we will defend
  • the rule of law. And if you want to
  • continue fighting with us, you are going
  • to lose at the end of the day. I'm not
  • saying it's not going to hurt us, but we
  • are true. We are north. We are strong.
  • We are free. And we are ready for this
  • fight, Donald. So, make up your mind.
  • Quit your fighting on social media with
  • us. Tell us what you're going to do

  • 11:01
  • because we're moving on and we're going
  • to stand and hold the line. Now, uh,
  • also over the past 24 to 48 hours, uh,
  • the foreign minister of Denmark, foreign
  • minister Azmusen, uh, was speaking and
  • he's like, look, if the United States
  • wants to talk about a joint defense,
  • okay, he goes, but if they want to talk
  • about their sovereign, taking over our
  • sovereignty and conquering Greenland,
  • ain't going to happen. Important to note
  • that Denmark now is the leadership
  • position uh, in the European Union for
  • uh, this term. Here's what uh the uh
  • Danish foreign minister Rasmusen had to
  • say. Play this clip.
  • Well, we are still working to figure out
  • what is actually uh the true American
  • ambition. I mean uh we realize and I
  • think we share the opinion that the
  • security situation in Arctic has changed
  • and and we are ready to and by we I mean
  • the Kingdom of Denmark, the government
  • in Greenland and Denmark are ready to
  • cooperate with the American government

  • 12:00
  • to accommodate that. Uh so if it's about
  • security, it's about access to raw
  • material, it's about closer business
  • relations, uh people-to-people contact,
  • etc., we are ready, uh to do our part,
  • it if it's a ideological vision about,
  • you know, enlarging the American
  • territory, there's absolutely no way we
  • can accommodate that. Of course,
  • another very powerful moment um right
  • here from French President Emanuel
  • Mcronone's speech. Although he talked
  • about cultural and artistic exchange
  • between the UK and France, it had a very
  • uh more profound meaning in my opinion
  • because they talked about the arts, they
  • talked about culture, they talked about
  • supporting people basically liberal
  • democracy and to me it was a message
  • towards Donald Trump as well. here. Play
  • this clip.
  • As a channel tunnel is celebrating its
  • 30th anniversary this year,
  • let's make a wish here today. Let's not
  • allow the channel to grow wider.

  • 13:03
  • Although there are 300,000 French people
  • living in the United Kingdom and 150,000
  • British people living in France,
  • there has been a decrease in movement in
  • recent years when it comes to school,
  • university, professional and researcher
  • exchanges.
  • And today there is a risk that our
  • societies are growing apart, that our
  • young people do not know each other as
  • well and may end up strangers
  • at a time when international current
  • events remind us on a daily basis of our
  • common future. Let's fix it. Let's work
  • together in order to facilitate the
  • exchange of students,
  • researchers,
  • intellectuals, artists. This is so
  • important. Let's allow our children to
  • have the same opportunities as the one
  • we had.
  • Now, here was a moment uh from Donald
  • Trump's disastrous

  • 14:01
  • cabinet meeting yesterday when he was
  • asked from Caitlyn Collins of CNN. Um
  • hey, question for you there, Donald. So,
  • who signed off on stopping the shipments
  • of weapons to Ukraine from the Defense
  • Department? Did you were you aware of
  • this, Donald? And he goes, I don't know.
  • You tell me. Here, play this clip.
  • So, who ordered a pause last week?
  • I don't know. What did you tell me?
  • I think that's a question for him.
  • Go ahead.
  • I don't know. You tell me. Are you
  • kidding me? And here Donald Trump is
  • asked the question, you know, hey,
  • Donald, I know you keep saying you're
  • frustrated at Putin, but you said what?
  • Back, first off, you said you would
  • bring peace to Ukraine in 24 hours. You
  • said you would be able to get uh Putin
  • uh to bring peace to Ukraine. So
  • obviously a lie there. Um and then also
  • what back in April you said in two weeks
  • you would impose sanctions on Putin
  • which you then lied about. Two more
  • weeks, two more weeks, two more weeks.
  • And then you had a call with Putin last

  • 15:00
  • week where right after that call ended
  • Putin escalated his attacks and killings
  • and genocide of innocent Ukrainians in
  • Ke. So he's playing you. He thinks
  • you're a weak idiot. Donald, what do you
  • say to that? The reporter didn't say
  • weak idiot. I said that. But the
  • reporter did say, 'It seems like Putin's
  • playing you.' Here's what Donald Trump
  • said. Let's play this clip.
  • He's uh we're dealing with him now, too.
  • That's We're not happy with Putin. I'm
  • not happy with Putin. I can tell you
  • that much right now cuz he's killing a
  • lot of people. And a lot of them are his
  • soldiers. His soldiers and their
  • soldiers mostly. And it's now up to
  • 7,000 a week. And I'm not happy with
  • Putin. Okay. Any questions? Yes.
  • Yes, sir. You just said that you're not
  • happy with Vladimir Putin. Is there
  • anything that you plan to do to act on
  • that feeling of what happened?
  • I wouldn't be telling you. Don't we want
  • to have a little surprise? You know, one
  • of the things we did with the attack is
  • that uh you asked that question. I was I
  • don't want I didn't mean to be rude, but

  • 16:00
  • I'm going to rude cuz I'm looking at
  • some of these crooked people up here, so
  • I'm rude. But your question was asked
  • very nicely. But one of the things we
  • did is we we uh went over every fact. We
  • want to get every fact straight. We want
  • to have the distance straight, the
  • number of pilots straight. Everything
  • had to be correct because we want to be
  • this was a very important mission. If we
  • failed on this mission, it's it was
  • beyond uh the the war that you know
  • obviously we had with Iran and Israel, a
  • lot of hatred, a lot of years and years
  • of hatred,
  • centuries of hatred. Uh they've never
  • people have never seen anything like it.
  • So we wanted to be correct with all our
  • facts. So you know what I was doing is
  • just asking it would be great if if uh
  • if the media would be correct with FX.
  • That's all we ask for. So
  • and while all of this is taking place,
  • one of the things that we learned as
  • well is that one of Donald Trump's top
  • advisors um was actually born in the
  • Soviet Union. Somebody who is who had

  • 17:02
  • not agreed uh to go through the kind of
  • normal background check is what many
  • people are saying. Um, the top Trump
  • adviser, Sergio Gore, actually was born
  • in the Soviet Union. Um, his name is not
  • actually Sergio Gore. It's like Sergio
  • Gorski.
  • And this is the guy who hires all of the
  • people in the executive office. Uh,
  • very, very, very questionable stuff
  • right there. So, I wanted to give you
  • all of those data points. Let me know
