00:00I was then proud to serve as vice president to our first black president, Barack Obama.
00:09And I was proud to ask Kamala Harris to run with me,
00:13be the first black woman to serve as vice president of the United States.
00:17Judges matter.
00:20Courts matter.
00:22The law matters.
00:25And the Constitution matters.
00:27I think a lot of Americans are starting to realize that under the pressure under now
00:33with this guy we have as president.
00:36Oh, get ready, folks.
00:39This is just starting.
00:42Folks, in our lives, in the life of our nation,
00:47there are moments so stark that they divide all that came before
00:53from everything that followed.
00:57We are, in my view, at such a moment in American history,
01:01reflected in every cruel executive outreach,
01:07every rollback of basic freedoms,
01:10every erosion of long-standing established precedent.
01:13We've seen the laws, the law firms,
01:18bowing to pressure,
01:20bending to bullies
01:21instead of staying rooted in justice and the law,
01:26including some of the largest newspapers in America.
01:29We see the apparent glee
01:31some of our politicians expressed that's while watching immigrants
01:37who are in this country legally torn from the arms of their family,
01:42dragged away in handcuffs from the only home they've ever known.
01:47My friends, we need to face the hard truth of this administration.
01:53It has been to ease all the gains we've made in my administration,
01:59to erase history rather than make it,
02:03to erase fairness, equality,
02:05to erase justice itself.
02:08And that's not hyperbole.
02:09That's a fact.
02:11These are dark days.
02:13But you're all here for the same reason
02:15that I left that prestigious law firm
02:17and the public defender's office
02:18to go to the defender's office years ago.
02:20It's because our future is literally on the line.
02:23We must be unapologetic of fighting for the future.
02:29We must be unapologetic of fighting for the future.
02:53We must be unapologetic of fighting for the future.
03:11We must be unapologetic of fighting for the future.
03:16Those are the two reasons why you said
03:18we got wealth of fighting for fighting for powerент involvement.
