This week, he released a commercial promoting his line of coffee. It comes as he is in the middle of bankruptcy and pleads not guilty to trying to overturn the 2020 election in Arizona. But his downfall is symbolic for American Democracy. At the turn of the millennium, then-President Clinton spoke of hope for a new generation of Americans. Instead, America democracy is being strangled by indifference and denialism.

it's May 22nd this is the warning a few minutes before midnight on December 31st 1999 from the Lincoln Memorial President William Jefferson Clinton spoke the concluding words of the 20th century from an American president's mouth they were optimistic they were full of 0:33 Hope let's listen to the last two 0:36 paragraphs of that 0:38 speech now we're just moments from that 0:42 New 0:43 Millennium two centuries ago as the 0:46 framers were crafting our 0:48 constitution Benjamin Franklin was often 0:51 seen in Independence Hall looking at a 0:54 painting of the sun low on the 0:58 horizon when at long last the 1:00 Constitution finally was signed Mr Franklin said I have often wondered whether that sun was rising or setting today I have the happiness to know it is a Rising Sun Well two centuries later we know the sun will always rise on America as long as each new generation lights the fire of Freedom our children already so again the torch is passed to a new century of Young Americans This vision of President 1:44 Clinton's did not come to 1:48 pass the world we live in according to 1:51 one of the preeminent Scholars on 1:53 totalitarianism and 20th Century fascism 1:56 stands at an hour that on the clock 2:00 according to Dr Timothy Snider is 1938 the Ukrainian Army is exhausted it is battered Russians are advancing there are stories in the United States press about Rudy Giuliani urinating during a court hearing but not about the dire conditions at the Ukrainian front where the losses are as a direct result of the perty and the incomp idence and the stupidity of the United States Congress and the magga movement that made the world so much 2:40 more 2:41 dangerous yesterday Neil Patel the Chief 2:46 Executive Officer of Tucker Carlson 2:48 media denied reports that he was in 2:52 business along with Tucker Carlson with 2:54 the Russian government it doesn't matter 2:57 whether it's a financial deal or not 3:00 they are in business morally and they are in business intellectually and that's why Russian State media put Tucker Carlson onto their television programming how is it that we got from there to there according to the Atlantic magazine in an astonishing essay the Saudi government was deeply involved in the 911 attacks it turns out there was a state sponsor it wasn't the Iraqi government 3:35 of 3:36 course we know that and have for a long 3:41 time but according to litigation records 3:45 it was the Saudi 3:46 government think about 3:49 that how would history have been 3:52 different if we knew and the Bush 3:55 Administration had acted on 3:58 reality which was that the State 4:01 sponsorship came from inside a government that purported to be an American Ally what was the cost of all of this at the end of the Atlantic article they sum it up let me read it today for most Americans the global war on terror has become a hazy memory from the time before Donald Trump in Washington policy makers avoid 4:28 discussing the subject yet it Bears 4:31 remembering it cost us $6 4:35 trillion and that number is expected to 4:37 go higher because of the long-term 4:39 health care cost for veterans it turned 4:42 the Middle East upside down increasing 4:45 the regional influence of Iran more than 4:48 7,000 American servicemen and women died 4:51 in action 30,000 more an extraordinary 4:55 number died by suicide in all 5:00 more than 800,000 Iraqis Afghans and others most of them civilians perished in the war the war on terror and its origins in 911 are seen in retrospect as farce and tragedy but the emerging picture of the preparations for 9/11 make recognizing the sheer scale of the blunder inescapable and that's from Daniel 5:29 Benjamin and the president of the 5:30 American Academy in Berlin who served as 5:32 the counterterrorism coordinator at the 5:35 US state department from 2009 to 2012 5:38 and step Simon a senior fellow at the 5:41 Quincy Institute for responsible 5:44 statecraft and a professor of Middle 5:46 Eastern studies at the University of 5:49 Washington author of grand delusion the 5:53 rise and fall of American ambition in 5:55 the Middle East course what a perfect 5:59 word there was this from yesterday 6:02 worldclass demagogue Ted Cruz assaulting the United States Secretary of State with utter nonsense Mr secretary you have presided over the worst foreign policy disaster of modern times when Joe Biden became president he inherited peace and prosperity in the 6:22 world we now have two simultaneous Wars 6:25 waging the worst war in Europe since 6:27 World War II and the worst war in the 6:29 Middle East in 50 years both I believe 6:32 were caused by this administration's 6:34 consistent 6:36 weakness and indeed your foreign policy 6:40 is precisely backwards from what a 6:43 rational American foreign policy should 6:46 be to our friends and allies this 6:48 Administration is consistently 6:51 undermined 6:53 weakened and attack 6:55 them and to our enemies this 6:57 Administration has shown constant peas 7:00 mene indeed has flowed billions of dollars to the enemies of America who want kill us the great tragedy and travesty of the 21st century that helped get us from there to here was the war in Iraq a force I'm going to show you a force the man who calls himself 7:18 America's mayor a man who is a 7:21 disgrace Beyond any 7:24 measure let's look back at some of 7:27 Rudolph giuliani's greatest hits 7:30 with a very big spike in the vote count 7:32 at exactly that 7:33 time right 7:35 up so what we're telling you is 7:38 supported by evidence shall we take a 7:42 trip back in time to the Four Seasons 7:46 Trump adviser Rudy Giuliani held his 7:49 Infamous news conference outside the 7:50 business last November the Trump team 7:52 mistakenly booked Four Seasons total 7:54 Landscaping instead of the Four Seasons 7:56 Hotel in Center City for the news 7:58 conference this is out out rageous in an 8:01 enormously important contest with a very very suspect method of voting there was no security zero the people of this city people of this country have no Assurance at all that those ballots were actually cast they would have to have been almost unanimously cast for Joe Biden in order 8:22 to catch up what Rudy Giuliani has 8:25 become is a loser a broke drunk 8:31 a man who sits at his 80th year in utter 8:35 disgrace a 8:37 seditionist criminal 8:40 defendant one of the most corrupt public 8:43 officials of the 21st century in 8:45 American Life a man who represents 8:48 perfectly The Vices and the lowness that 8:52 has pulled the nation to this low point 8:55 and this morning I learned that I've 8:58 been blocked by America's mayor Rudy 9:01 Giuliani who knew why what did I say Rudolph Giuliani
