Summary
Steve Schmidt is joined by Wajahat Ali, who ever so calmly exposed Pete Hegseth’s spiritual mentor, Christian nationalist Pastor Doug Wilson, for the charlatan that he is on "Piers Morgan Uncensored." It was a beautiful sight, and left the pastor virtually speechless. They also talk about the epic corruption of Jared Kushner, and the authoritarian ideology of the techno-fascist billionaires who are trying to buy up the 2026 and 2028 elections.

| 0:02.5 | Guaranteed Human. |
| 0:05.8 | Steve Schmidt with the warning, joined by Wajahad Ali, Waj of the Left Hook. |
| 0:11.5 | And let me start out by giving Wajj, I would, if I didn't, if I couldn't stand up, I'd give him a standing ovation. |
| 0:24.1 | Um, and he, and he deserves it. And, uh, and what I'm talking about, if it hasn't been seen, |
| 0:30.4 | you have to go to the left hook. You have to go check out what Wajahad Ali said. |
| 0:45.5 | Uh, the calm demeanor, the precision of language as he took on the right-wing fascist, Christian nationalist pastor of Pete Hagseth, who trained him in the theology of the gospel of Samuel L. Jackson. |
| 0:57.7 | It was extraordinary. As one of the commenters just said, it was epic. It was spellbinding. |
| 1:09.6 | And it went on for about eight minutes with a repost from Doug Wilson that your reaction to was perfection. Your contempt, perfectly understandable in that moment, and then you deliver |

| 2:15.8 | Your check is in the mail, sir. And here's low bars everywhere that |
| 2:21.9 | hopefully everyone can hop over. I guess you could say, to quote the Blues Brothers, I was on a |
| 2:26.4 | mission from God and possessed in the moment by the Holy Spirit. You know, it's one of those |
| 2:31.8 | situations where I joined Pierce Morgan Show after a long time, |
| 2:35.0 | and I was supposed to be on with Human Rieke, Michael Knowles, who is Timu Ben Shapiro, and Doug Wilson, |
