   a media that never wanted them to hit the sites from Democrats who   
   never wanted them to hit the sites from isolationists who never wanted   
   them to hit the sites. I see unity among conservatives and Republicans   
   and MAGA like I haven’t seen since the election. There’s a new analysis   
   out that says if even more people had voted in the November election,   
   guess what? Donald Trump would have won by even a bigger margin. On top   
   of another one I just saw that said he almost won a majority of the   
   Hispanic vote. Can you believe that? Not the biggest amount of   
   Republicans since X, Y, Z. He almost got a majority. Incredible.   
   Incredible. When we come back, I will read you that section that I want   
   to read you. But what took place with the Israelis? I told you what   
   would take place. What took place with the United States military. I   
   told you what would take place. I told you no regional war. I told you   
   no World War Three. I told you it was all B.S.. It’s all B.S.. You know   
   what the Israelis did. And we did. Was incredibly important for   
   humanity. But the enemy persists even if Iran is wiped off the face of   
   the earth. TSA is not going away. They are terrorist organizations   
   fighting terror. They’re not going away.   
      
   Segment 3   
   This Islamist terrorism is not one battle. It’s not one country. It’s   
   not even one region. It’s not going away. That’s why we have TSA in   
   place. The president hasn’t eliminated that. That’s why we have   
   terrorist law enforcement units coordinating with each other at local,   
   state and federal level. Talk about sleeper cells. The sleeper cells   
   were already here. What are they doing here? 911 was not a provocation.   
   They just did it. Because that’s the mindset. Explain this a great   
   length pages 45 to 58 in my new book on Power. But I want to read   
   something else to you right now. We have an individual who could get   
   elected mayor has the inside track. It’s not 100%. Who to me is the   
   enemy within. Is the quintessential enemy within Hates America hates   
   our economic system. He. He’s being championed by a royal family member   
   in Qatar. He is a rabid anti-Semite despite his smile and he finally   
   put a suit on. Cleaned him up. BDS movement that is an economic war   
   against the state of Israel. It’s. He wants to defund the cops. He   
   wants to eliminate jails. He wants city run grocery stores where you’ll   
   starve to death. In the book, Ladies and gentlemen, I call this   
   authoritarian democracy. This is very, very important to understand the   
   authoritarian democracy. I saw a liberal Jewish lady who’s on the   
   board, I think, at Columbia, and I believe she was on. Fox and Friends   
   yesterday or today or whatever. The days are running together. And she   
   says, look, I don’t have to agree with everything, but this is   
   democracy at work. This is democracy at work because there’s there’s an   
   election. Democracy doesn’t insure liberty, doesn’t insure property   
   rights, it doesn’t ensure security. Democracy is a system by which you   
   choose individuals in a government. That process does not ensure.   
   Picture, unalienable rights, your basic individual liberties and your   
   security and private property will be protected, and this proves it.   
   This proves it. Representative government? Yes. Consensual government?   
   Yes. But just to say, while we have democracy, we get to vote. Really?   
   So I call this authoritarian democracy. In the book, I coined these   
   words because I think they’re important. What is it? Negative power   
   need not be exercised or present itself in such aggressive forms for   
   modern Western societies. Most of which are said to be advanced,   
   enlightened and democratic. Negative power is more opaque or what I   
   call soft negative power. What is negative power? In one word. We’ll   
   get into this in a couple of weeks. It’s coercion. It’s the   
   centralization of power and of fewer and fewer individuals. Typically,   
   Western institutions have been established gradually by experience and   
   practice, reconstituted by design, to counter or limit the most   
   aggressive forms of negative power such as dictatorships and   
   oligarchies. However, over time, they tend to become susceptible to a   
   softer form of negative power. I hope you really. Intrigued by this   
   because this is explaining exactly what’s going on in New York City   
   right now. Political parties and political movements in the West look   
   for advantages in acquiring, holding and expanding their power. With a   
   changing election, laws governing increasingly through non-   
   representative bureaucracies and so-called independent agencies and   
   commissions. The rule of carefully selected judges excuse me, the role   
   of carefully selected judges or judicial councils and the like. The   
   conflict between honoring and complying with institutional limits   
   placed on power and the allure of self-aggrandizement is both real and   
   perhaps inevitable over time. As such, the once authentic and thought   
   to be effective institutions for limiting limiting excesses of power   
   are transformed into Potemkin like fictions. Used to disguise the   
   intentions of the abusers. Like this guy. Bizarre and mundane. And   
   worse are transformed into tools in support of the exercise of soft   
   negative power. I call this authoritarian democracy. If this guy gets   
   elected, you’re going to see it in spades in New York City.   
   Authoritarian democracy is when a democracy begins to slide into a form   
   of authoritarianism, not all at once, but steadily, where authoritarian   
   attributes slowly proliferate and one branch of the democracy begins to   
   develop, the others are all branches coalesce into one. Either way, the   
   exercise of power is steadily centralized and the citizenry   
   increasingly peripheral. It typically results in the rule by the   
   unelected governmental branches, but can also mutate into excessive   
   executive or legislative empowerment. This sound about right, Mr.   
   Producer? About what’s going on in New York City. Authoritarian   
   democracy’s adopt the and excuse me, adopt and use the tactics of   
   authoritarian regimes, albeit at first with more of a glove than an   
   iron fist. But the underlying attributes are there. For example,   
   legislatures that passed tyrannical laws by which laws are said to be   
   legitimate simply because the legislature adopted them. Courts that   
   disregard due process by which trials are said to be due justice   
   because they were held in a court of law with defense counsel and   
   juries present and so forth. The use of law is said to be a legitimate   
   application of power because it is the law, not because it its proper   
   just or moral law. Even today, the impact of authoritarian democracy   
   has seeped into our society psyche so successfully that the late   
   Austrian American economist Ludwig von Mises observed that one of the   
   worst tyrannies of all Marxism has become part of the West’s psyche. Is   
   that not the case right now in New York City? He said to a considerable   
   extent without knowing it. Many people are philosophical Marxists,   
   although they use different names for their philosophical ideas. And I.   
   Go on. However, there are also those, perhaps many, who benefit from   
   the government’s use of soft negative power, including when that power   
   is used, for example, to forcibly redistribute the wealth and property   
   of those who produced and earned it for the use and enrichment of   
   others beyond the usual and basic needs of a civil society and justify   
   what would otherwise be considered thievery as noble and even moral.
