00:00 >> I was gonna say, Matt Whitaker, former acting attorney general, equal protection
00:05 under the law is a most fundamental bedrock constitutional principle of American jurisprudence.
00:10 What I just saw in this courtroom is a complete miscarriage of justice.
00:15 We cannot have judges who are wearing the same jersey as the prosecution and are not
00:20 calling balls and strikes, but are intentionally preventing the defense from defending themselves.
00:25 We have witnesses that are liars and stealers.
00:29 We cannot have this in America.
00:32 And the fact that this is going to most likely go to a jury trial on no crimes, that this
00:38 is essentially a referendum on whether or not the jurors like Donald Trump or not, is
00:42 not the American system of justice.
00:45 We demand better, New York City demands better.
00:47 We have the most serious crisis on our border that's causing the most insecure terrorism
00:53 situation since 9/11.
00:55 We need to wake up to what's important in America and start paying attention to that.
