Watters shared several clips — including one of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas — recognizing the 21st anniversary of the 9/11 attacks and making an immediate pivot to invoke the January 6th riot on Capitol Hill.
“When 9/11 occurred in those — in those years, we were very focused on the foreign terrorist. Now we are seeing an emerging threat, of course over the last several years of the domestic violent extremist, an ideology of hate,” Mayorkas said in the clip. “Antigovernment sentiment. False narratives propagated on online platforms. Even personal grievances.”
“That was a sitting U.S. Senator the former Secretary of State, and the Secretary of Homeland Security just casually pivoting from 9/11 to January 6th. Did you guys notice how casual that was?” Watters observed. “They just said Khalid Sheikh Mohammed is Stephen Miller with a beard.”
“I remember during the Bush years when Democrats would howl at Republicans for ‘politicizing 9/11’ because they wore a little flag pin,” Watters continued. “Now Democrats declared a war on terror against Republicans on the anniversary of 9/11. What makes you a terrorist again? Because you have personal grievances? Well, I have a personal grievance, is that going to put me on a no-fly list? You are a terrorist for believing in false narratives? If I believe Hunter’s laptop is real am I going to Gitmo? And the big guy sounds like W., except the enemy is a red hat instead of a box cutter.”
