Speaker 1 (00 : 00)
the president held up the Bible the other day in Washington, D. C. Here in New York. We actually read the Bible, and there are some passages that I think are especially appropriate for today. On this time of where we are. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called Children of God. Matthew. Five. If a house divided against itself, that house cannot stand. That was Mark three, actually, before Abraham Lincoln turn away from evil and do good search for peace and work to maintain Psalms 34. The seed whose fruit is righteousness is sewn in peace by those who make peace. I think those words are all appropriate for where we are today. It’s another quote that I think is applicable to where we are today. You can’t use the military as a political weapon. Do you remember who said that? I said that? Another quote. The option to use active duty forces and law enforcement use forces in a law enforcement role should only be used as a matter of last resort and on Lee in the most urgent and dire of situations. We are not in one of those situations. Now I do not support invoking the Insurrection Act. You know who said that? Secretary of Defence Marcus, appointed by President Trump. You can’t set fire to the house and then claim you were the one trying to put out the flames. You know who said that? You guys are not well read that I can tell you a J Parkinson said that.
