Liz Cheney is a class act. And 'kudos' also to Kamala Harris and her team for orchestrating this. Whether this will be a turning point in modern American politics or not remains an open question ... but the fact that two of the top 'partisan' political competitors have done a joint event is extremely encouraging.

could have never imagined this even like four years ago but today Liz Cheney campaigned with kamla Harris in riin Wisconsin this is the birthplace of the Republican party and it was one of the most powerful moments that I have ever seen this is what bipartisanship is about this is what putting country over party truly means I'm so decided to break this down like I said this is one of the most impactful events that I have ever seen in a political campaign my name is Brett melis here with the mest touch Network remember to hit subscribe to help us get to 3.5 million subscribers we can't do it without you so hit that subscribe hit the notification Bell if you're already subscribed let's do this okay first I got to show you the crowds right we all saw earlier Donald Trump spoke in front of a half empty uh arena in Michigan it was quite pathetic and sad and he ran L 1:00 on with his usual grievances but let's throw up this b-roll right now you could see for those watching you could see the line to get into kamla Harris's rally in Wisconsin and let me tell you the local population of this town is 7,772 people just to let you know when you see that many people online that it's even like more exponential than even what you're seeing like this has never been seen in American history something like this happened we also saw all the teamsters in Wisconsin out there showing their support it was so great to see them and L Cheney came right out the gate swinging making great jokes about Donald Trump and speaking about her patriotism watch the way she started this by mocking Donald Trump this was perfect house leadership [Applause] so in other words I was a republican even before Donald Trump started spray tanning 2:05 and for this take I'm going to go back and forth between some of the comments L Cheney made and some of the comments vice president kamla Harris made I want to show you this clip which was particularly poignant I felt where comma Harris said in the face of those that would endanger our magnificant our magnificent experiment people of every party must stand together and Ron Philip Kowski our editor-in chief who used to be a republican he was a republican not that long ago Ron Philip Kowski noted quote this historic 8-year struggle against this Menace is not about political party when it started I had never voted for a democrat in my life he is the greatest threat to the Constitution rule of law and our alliances we have seen since 1861 on top of that he is a repulsive human here is KLA Harris because the president of the United States must not look at our country through the narrow lens of 3:02 ideology or Petty partisanship or self-interest the president of the United States must not look at our country as an instrument for their own Ambitions our nation is not some spoil to be won the United States of America is the greatest idea Humanity ever devised the nation that inspired the world to believe in the possibilities of a representative government and so in the face of those who would endanger our magnificent experiment people of every party must stand together and let me be clear democracy and freedom are not only at stake here at home they are also at 4:03 stake around the world as president of the United States I will strengthen not abdicate America's Global Leadership Liz Cheney offered a similar sentiment to what Ron Philip cowsky editor-in Chief was saying in that comment I read before she was saying I never voted for a Democrat this year I am proudly voting for vice president kamla Harris watchat I tell you I have never voted for a Democrat but this year I am proudly casting my vote for vice president kamla Harris [Applause] 5:05 you you thank you but mostly we're not going back are you getting the chills or is this just me I mean this is magical this event this is like nothing we have ever seen before in American history it shows you the true Stakes of this election here's vice president president KLA Harris speaking about The Tragic Truth that we must face in this upcoming election watch and The Tragic Truth The Tragic Truth that we are facing in this election for President of the United States is that there is actually an honest question about whether one of the candidates will uphold the oath to the Constitution of the United States that is The Tragic Truth of this 6:02 election that this is actually an honest question that we are having As Americans and I know the vast majority of us agree that upholding the Constitution must be a basic requirement we expect of anyone seeking the highest office in the land I know the vast majority of us regardless of your political party agree we must hold sacred America's fundamental principles from the rule of law to free and fair elections to the peaceful transfer of power and if you share if you share that view no matter your political party there is a place for you with us and in this campaign because those 7:02 principles I know unite us across party lines and in this election I take seriously my pledge to be a president for all Americans vice president Harris continued about Donald Trump's refusal to accept the will of the American people and the results of a free and fair election check this out and as you have heard and know he refused to accept the will of the people and the results of an election that was free and fair as you have heard he sent an armed mob to the United States capital where they assaulted Law Enforcement Officers he threatened the life of his own vice president and refused to engage in the 8:00 peaceful transfer of power and let us be clear about how he intends to use power if elected again he has called for jailing journalists political opponents anyone he sees and deems as being an enemy he has pledged to destroyed the independence of the Department of Justice and he called for deploying our active duty military against our own citizens well I believe you and my running mates both well listen I believe that anyone who recklessly tramples on our democratic values as Donald Trump has anyone who has actively and violently 9:00 obstructed the will of the people and the peaceful transfer of power as Donald Trump has anyone who has called for I quote termination of the Constitution of the United States as Donald Trump has must never again stand behind the Seal of the president of the United States this next line from Liz Cheney nearly made me tear up over here she was speaking about what a president Harris would look like in terms of unifying the country and what an inspiration she would be to our children especially our young girls I love this so much watch 10:04 I know I know that president that a president Harris that President Harris will be able to unite this nation I know that she will be a president who will defend the rule of law and I know that she will be a president who can inspire all of our children and if I might say so especially our little [Applause] girls to do great things so help us write the ship of our democracy so that history will say of us when our time of testing came we did our duty and we prevailed because we loved our country more here L Cheney makes a call to other Republicans and independents out there 11:02 and the importance of rejecting the depravity that is Donald Trump check this out Donald Trump was willing to sacrifice our Capital to allow Law Enforcement Officers to be beaten and brutalized in his name and to violate the law and the constitution in order to seize power for himself I don't care if you are a Democrat or a Republican or an independent that is depravity and we must never become numb to it any [Applause] person any person who would do these things can never be trusted with power again we must defeat Donald Trump on November 5th vice president Harris hit Donald Trump for his subservient to Putin and 12:00 his willingness to surrender on behalf of Ukraine watch this Trump wants to force Ukraine to give up its Sovereign territory a Bedrock principle upon which we stand and fight for and you know who else wants them to give up their Sovereign absolutely territory Putin Putin and that's not a plan for peace it's a plan for surrender well I believe that in the global struggle between tyranny and democracy the president of the United States must always be on the side of [Applause] Freedom Liz Cheney of course one of the key members of the January 6 committee speaking here about Donald Trump's plan 13:02 to have fake electoral votes cast these fake electors and to try to corruptly influence and overturn the results of the 2020 election watch When Donald Trump woke up on the morning of January 6th 2021 his intention despite having lost the election was that he would remain president rather than accept his loss and concede defeat he had spent months overseeing a multi-part plan to attempt to seize power and remain in office he ignored the rulings of the courts he corruptly pressured state legislator including here in Wisconsin to overturn the results of their elections he told the justice department to lie for him he conspired to have fake electoral votes cast and he corruptly pressured his vice president to take illegal and 14:00 unconstitutional actions he summoned a mob to Washington DC with his lies and he sent the armed mob to the United States capital in an effort to stop the counting of electoral votes as the violent mob attacked our capital in Donald Trump's name as they brutally beat Law Enforcement Officers as they hunted the vice president and the Speaker of the House Donald Trump watched the attack on television for hours for hours going back to Ukraine vice president Harris made a brilliant yet simple Point watch last week I met with Ukraine's president zalinski and the message I delivered was 15:01 the same message I've shared with him every time I've seen him I stand with Ukraine and I always will and I told him as I have before I want Ukraine to Prevail by contrast in our debate Donald Trump couldn't even bring himself to to say he wanted Ukraine to win the war couldn't even bring himself to say that a war that Putin a brutal dictator launched against a free and independent people Liz Cheney spoke about a president's solemn obligation to ensure and guarantee the peaceful transfer of [Applause] power as we meet here today our Republic 16:01 faces a threat unlike any we have faced before a former president who attempted to stay in power by unraveling the foundations of our Republic by refusing to accept the lawful results confirmed by dozens of Courts of the 2020 election we cannot turn away from this truth in this election putting patriotism ahead of partisanship is not an aspiration it is our [Applause] duty at the very heart of our survival as a republic is the peaceful transition of power Ronald Reagan said this was nothing short of a miracle that every four or eight years the most powerful office in our land indeed the most power ful office in the world is passed 17:01 peacefully to a new president in the United States of America violence does not and must never determine who rules us voters [Applause] do and in this country under our constitution our president has a particular solemn obligation to ensure and guarantee the peaceful transfer of power since the beginning of the Republic every president in our history has fulfilled that duty every president until Donald Trump When Donald Trump woke up on the morning of January 6th 2021 his intention despite having lost the election was that he would remain president rather rather than accept his loss and concede defeat he had spent 18:03 months overseeing a multi-part plan to attempt to seize power and remain in office along similar lines vice president kamla Harris spoke about how Donald Trump violated his oath to the Constitution check this out and I have sworn an oath to uphold the Constitution six times in my career um including as vice president as a United States Senator and as the top long enforcement officer of the largest state in our country responsible for upholding and enforcing the laws of the state and the laws of the United States was the work I did and I have never wavered in upholding that oath and I have always executed it faithfully and without [Applause] reservation and therein lies the profound difference between Donald Trump and 19:02 me he who violated the oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States of America and make no mistake he who if given the chance would violate it again Donald Trump lost the 2020 [Applause] election then Cheney spoke about the urgency of this cause and said why it means so much to her as a conservative as a patriot and as a mother check this [Music] out vice president Harris has dedicated her life to Public Service I know I know that she loves our country and I know that she will be a president for all Americans as a conservative as a patriot as a mother as someone who reveres our constitution 20:02 I am honored to join her in this urgent [Applause] cause L Cheney spoke in detail about how Donald Trump handled himself on January 6th even after he knew that one of the insurrectionists had been killed watch this it is Donald Trump's closest AIDS who also told us this they said that while the attack on our Capital was happening Donald Trump was handed a note informing him that a civilian had been shot at the door to the Chamber of the United States House of Representatives Donald Trump put the note down on the table in front of him continued to watch the attack on television and still refused to tell the mob to leave the capital Donald Trump was willing to sacrifice our Capital to 21:01 allow Law Enforcement Officers to be beaten and brutalized in his name and to violate the law and the constitution in order to seize power for himself I don't care if you are a Democrat or a Republican or an independent that is depravity and we must never become numb to it and if you don't mind let me just play the conclusion of Li chainers remarks during this powerful speech in Wisconsin today where L cheny looked at the audience and she said I ask you to reject the depraved cruelty of Donald Trump watch this to the end share it it really gets at my heart this is what America is about and I'm so grateful she is sharing this message watch in this election a broad Coalition has come together to support vice president kamla Harris now we made disagree on some things but we 22:01 are bound together by the one thing that matters to us as Americans more than any other and that's our duty to our Constitution and our belief in the miracle and the blessing of this incredible Nation we have a shared commitment a shared commitment As Americans to ensuring that future Generations live in a nation where power is transferred peacefully where our leaders are men and women of good faith and where our public servants set aside partisan battles to do what's right for this country so today I ask all of you here and everyone listening across this great country to join us I ask you to meet this moment I ask you to stand in truth to reject the depraved cruelty of Donald Trump and I ask you instead to help us elect kamla Harris 23:03 for [Applause] president I know I know that president a president Harris that President Harris will be able to unite this nation I know that she will be a president who will defend the rule of law and I know that she will be a president who can inspire all of our children and if I might say so especially our little girls [Applause] to do great things so help us write the 24:03 ship of our democracy so that history will say of us when our time of testing came we did our duty and we prevailed because we loved our country more and now wow wow wow like I said this is something I could never have imagined even just a few years ago but I am so thankful to Liz Cheney for
