I would be wary of this. He speaks very emotionally about things, but when I looked into what he was saying, he gets basic things wrong.
For example, he talks about important things being passed in the bill that funded the military for 2017....implying it happened under Trump, but the bill for the 2017 budget is passed in 2016. Under Obama.
Here's another thing
Why did CIC Trump have to declare 9 National Emergencies, 7 in Executive Orders?
None of which have been terminated or addressed.
Presidents declaring National Emergencies are not unusual.
Obama declared 12. Biden has declared 7. There's been 80 National Emergencies declared and 31 are still in effect
This is because the declaration of a National Emergency is a legal way a president can exercise power. Congress has delegated at least 136 distinct statutory emergency powers to the President, most of which are available upon the declaration of an emergency And there's a law The National Emergency Act that formalizes the extra powers in the case of an emergency. This law is mentioned is almost all Executive Orders.

Anytime you hear of a country or a company or individuals being sanctioned, there's usually a National Emergency being declared. 11 of the emergencies under Obama are sanctions programs. These are usually developed by Congress and the Treasury Directory and the president enacts them. It's rare that it's just a president going off on his own. Under Obama the US sanctioned, Somali pirates, the Los Zetas cartel, the Camorra gang in Italy, various folks causing war.
Some of these are because of laws Congress has passed.
Executive Order 13692 Blocking Property and Suspending Entry of Certain Persons Contributing to the Situation in Venezuela is because Congress passed this law, the Venezuela Defense of Human Rights and Civil Society Act of 2014.
Executive Order 13818 Blocking the Property of Persons Involved in Serious Human Rights Abuse or Corruption is because the Congress passed the Global Magnitsky Act.
The executive order becomes a way of implementing the law and the sanctions
He says none of Trump's Emergency Orders have been terminated, but this is not true
The emergencies declared in Proclamation 9844 and Proclamation 9994 have both ended.
