Check them out investy Refi dot com. 0:01:45.480 --> 0:01:47.240 Got a lot to get to it. It looks like 0:01:47.280 --> 0:01:51.800 we're gonna start with what's happening in Maine. So if 0:01:51.840 --> 0:01:54.440 you watch the Cold Open, you saw a clip from CNN. 0:01:54.880 --> 0:01:58.440 Uh Scott Jennings was talk basically talking about this guy 0:01:58.440 --> 0:02:01.320 who has a Nazi tattoo. His name is Graham Platner. 0:02:02.000 --> 0:02:06.000 He has described himself what was it as Antifa's. 0:02:05.880 --> 0:02:08.600 He I am a person he liked the line, and 0:02:08.720 --> 0:02:11.120 someone I think someone else described himself as an Antifa 0:02:11.320 --> 0:02:15.320 super soldiers said that was a line he liked. 0:02:15.400 --> 0:02:15.600 Yeah. 0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:17.840 Onreddit, that's our future. 0:02:17.880 --> 0:02:18.040 Now. 0:02:18.200 --> 0:02:20.200 This guy is a forty one year old, but he 0:02:20.240 --> 0:02:22.520 has a bunch of Reddit posts from twenty twenty twenty 0:02:22.560 --> 0:02:23.040 twenty one. 0:02:23.560 --> 0:02:25.480 Look, get some images of this guy up here while 0:02:25.520 --> 0:02:27.800 we're talking about let me explain Graham Platner to you. 0:02:27.840 --> 0:02:29.960 It's time to deal with this guy out of Maine. 0:02:29.960 --> 0:02:32.200 He's gonna be running against Susan Collins, and I have 0:02:33.040 --> 0:02:35.400 interesting tidbits from Charlie and Susan Collins we'll get to 0:02:35.440 --> 0:02:38.720 in a second. But he's the presumptive Democratic nominee for 0:02:38.919 --> 0:02:42.760 US Senate in Maine in the upcoming twenty twenty sixth election. Here, okay, 0:02:43.400 --> 0:02:47.760 So Janet Mills suspended her campaign citing a lack of funds, 0:02:48.080 --> 0:02:51.400 So that's cleared the path for Platner ahead of the 0:02:51.480 --> 0:02:55.359 June ninth primary. So he's now presumptive. Right. Platner a 0:02:55.480 --> 0:02:59.880 marine veteran oyster farmer, and he's a political newcomer. He 0:03:00.200 --> 0:03:02.440 has faced a wave of scrutiny. We've not really gotten 0:03:02.440 --> 0:03:04.480 into it too much on this show, but it started 0:03:04.480 --> 0:03:06.800 in the fall, and he kind of came into this 0:03:06.880 --> 0:03:12.359 race as an anti establishment progressive guy. So here's what 0:03:12.520 --> 0:03:16.440 the controversies around this gentleman are a Nazi affiliated tattoo. 0:03:16.840 --> 0:03:18.959 So he had a chest tattoo that he got while 0:03:19.000 --> 0:03:23.760 he was serving as a marine apparently and in Croatia 0:03:23.800 --> 0:03:27.400 in two thousand and eight. And it's imagery as a 0:03:27.440 --> 0:03:31.520 skull and crossbones style that was linked to Nazi extremist symbolism, 0:03:32.440 --> 0:03:36.520 and he's owned it right. Apparently he covered it up 0:03:36.600 --> 0:03:39.040 after its surface and said he was unaware of the association. 0:03:39.280 --> 0:03:43.000 He's apologized publicly. Then you get to his Reddit feed, 0:03:43.040 --> 0:03:45.400 which we have warned about Reddit. Reddit and Blue Sky 0:03:45.520 --> 0:03:51.640 are basically where left wing extremism gets domestic violence is. 0:03:52.040 --> 0:03:55.120 The left has a certain lack of survival instinct about 0:03:55.120 --> 0:03:58.720 posting online, so you know, you'll have like right wingers 0:03:58.760 --> 0:04:00.480 will get in trouble for stuff they hosted, but at 0:04:00.560 --> 0:04:02.600 least they usually had a pseudonym and someone had to 0:04:02.640 --> 0:04:05.760 hack it or whatever. Like leftist will just be like 0:04:06.040 --> 0:04:09.400 small just be small businessmen posting about how they want 0:04:09.440 --> 0:04:11.640 someone to shoot Trump in the head and they want 0:04:11.680 --> 0:04:13.760 a revolution and they fantasize about guillotine. 0:04:13.800 --> 0:04:16.599 It's because nobody's all the time, and nobody's ever made 0:04:16.600 --> 0:04:18.840 them be held accountable that all the. 0:04:18.760 --> 0:04:22.600 Time, and the left has in the case of Platinir. 0:04:22.640 --> 0:04:26.120 What's what's really funny about it is they've just they've 0:04:26.120 --> 0:04:28.880 actually like come out and openly said that they would 0:04:28.920 --> 0:04:32.920 never forgive Platner for his past fewer Republican But luckily, 0:04:33.160 --> 0:04:36.680 since he is a Democrat, we know that he's okay. 0:04:36.400 --> 0:04:39.320 Okay, So so what are some of these comments. He's downplayed, 0:04:39.440 --> 0:04:42.159 made light of sexual assault and rape, and at least 0:04:42.160 --> 0:04:46.560 in military context, victim blaming apparently as some of it, 0:04:47.000 --> 0:04:52.400 or blaming intoxication. He's made racially charged remarks questioning black 0:04:52.440 --> 0:04:59.760 tipping habits. He's been accused of misogyny language. So basically, 0:04:59.760 --> 0:05:02.520 they've hurled a lot of the same insults at him 0:05:02.520 --> 0:05:05.640 as they do the average right winger. He's made anti 0:05:05.640 --> 0:05:09.760 police sentiment sentiments. He said all cops are bastards. Uh call, 0:05:10.000 --> 0:05:15.120 calling rural white maners racist and stupid. Those are his 0:05:15.520 --> 0:05:18.320 future voters. Let's see if they end up pulling the 0:05:18.960 --> 0:05:23.600 pulling the uh I guess ballot for him, we'll see. 0:05:23.720 --> 0:05:26.440 And he's self identified as a communist in some posts. 0:05:26.440 --> 0:05:29.159 So this is my question, Blake. You're a student of history, 0:05:29.160 --> 0:05:32.960 you understand ideologies and political philosophy. Is he a Nazi 0:05:33.480 --> 0:05:34.600 or is he a Communist? 0:05:34.720 --> 0:05:39.080 No, he's yeah, first of all, yes, but you know 0:05:39.240 --> 0:05:42.000 the thing about it is is they could They'll say, 0:05:42.040 --> 0:05:44.840 he honestly, that's probably believable that he just got this 0:05:45.200 --> 0:05:49.120 tattoo because he thought it like looked cool and then 0:05:49.400 --> 0:05:52.200 covered it up later. Or he might be this huge 0:05:52.240 --> 0:05:55.440 winger swinging back and forth every direction one way or 0:05:55.440 --> 0:05:58.320 the other. I assume that's his updated Yeah, his updated tattoo. 0:05:59.000 --> 0:05:59.320 Uh. 0:05:59.360 --> 0:06:00.800 But like what matter. There's a lot more is the 0:06:00.839 --> 0:06:05.920 fact that he in recent history that he's supportive of Antifa, which, 0:06:05.960 --> 0:06:07.880 as we've tried to warn people, this is not just 0:06:07.960 --> 0:06:11.960 a left wing protest movement, it's a left wing street 0:06:12.040 --> 0:06:16.200 violence unit. The people they look up to, especially in Europe, 0:06:16.200 --> 0:06:18.800 this is a very refined art. They will go out, 0:06:18.839 --> 0:06:23.040 they'll bash people with hammers, they'll torch people's offices and stores. 0:06:23.160 --> 0:06:26.080 They will They really believe in using street violence to 0:06:26.080 --> 0:06:28.880 get things and then engineering the legal system to avoid 0:06:28.880 --> 0:06:31.279 consequences for it. And we're seeing that in America too. 0:06:31.520 --> 0:06:34.719 We see that with the brewing company guy out in 0:06:34.720 --> 0:06:38.279 in Wisconsin, Monoua. These people, this. 0:06:38.360 --> 0:06:42.240 Guy's definitely not not mentally well, I mean, he's he's 0:06:42.279 --> 0:06:42.839 something's wrong. 0:06:42.920 --> 0:06:46.000 Yeah, but that's that is what that is who Antifa 0:06:46.040 --> 0:06:48.719 appeals to that's why they get so much let's just 0:06:48.760 --> 0:06:52.400 say it kind of disgusting. Riff raft. Well, a lot 0:06:52.440 --> 0:06:55.440 of problems, people have, a lot of problems are drawn 0:06:55.560 --> 0:06:59.520 into Antifa and it's this radicalization engine. It makes them 0:06:59.560 --> 0:07:04.040 turn again everything functional in society. Anyone who has a business, 0:07:04.120 --> 0:07:07.960 especially small business. Antifa types they hate small businesses vastly 0:07:08.000 --> 0:07:09.520 more than big business most of the time. 0:07:09.600 --> 0:07:12.040 Yeah, probably, and they don't mind vandalizing. This is why 0:07:12.040 --> 0:07:14.640 we always we actually also have to be worried about 0:07:14.760 --> 0:07:19.240 the epidemic of prescription medications and antidepressants and all this stuff. 0:07:19.240 --> 0:07:21.240 I mean, because there is a lot of mental illness 0:07:21.360 --> 0:07:24.720 out there, and the more that we, you know, prescribe 0:07:24.760 --> 0:07:27.320 these medications, we're covering it up. And I'm telling you 0:07:27.360 --> 0:07:30.040 a lot of these left wingers at this anti Antifa types, 0:07:30.360 --> 0:07:33.840 there's a mental unhingedness going on. They are not mentally 0:07:33.880 --> 0:07:36.080 will well. And we have to be very aware of 0:07:36.080 --> 0:07:37.640 the fact that when they go online and they see 0:07:37.680 --> 0:07:40.720 all this like crazy crap, they're liable to take hold 0:07:40.760 --> 0:07:42.880 of it and do something crazy about it. Last night, 0:07:42.920 --> 0:07:46.880 this was this race was discussed on CNN. So I 0:07:46.880 --> 0:07:48.880 want to play some clips here. This is the old 0:07:48.920 --> 0:07:53.480 friend Adam Mockler. Uh, this guy. I mean, listen, if this, 0:07:53.680 --> 0:07:56.800 if the roles were reversed and this was a Republican 0:07:56.880 --> 0:07:59.400 we were talking about, this whole answer would be opposite. 0:07:59.400 --> 0:08:02.160 That's all I'm gonna tell you. Stop for now. 0:08:02.400 --> 0:08:05.240 If this were a Republican candidate who had had a 0:08:05.280 --> 0:08:09.360 Nazi tattoo covered it up when he was running for something, 0:08:10.600 --> 0:08:12.440 and had said all the things that he had said 0:08:12.560 --> 0:08:16.400 about black people, about women, about rape, et cetera, do 0:08:16.440 --> 0:08:18.640 you really think there's a world in which Democrats would 0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:20.840 be like, let's just let bygones be bygones. 0:08:20.880 --> 0:08:21.440 That's the past. 0:08:21.480 --> 0:08:22.280 Today is the president. 0:08:22.320 --> 0:08:24.040 I think we're entering a new era and we'll see 0:08:24.080 --> 0:08:26.040 what the base wants. We'll see who wins when the 0:08:26.080 --> 0:08:28.760 actual election happens. But for the past decade, Democrats have 0:08:28.840 --> 0:08:31.680 been unified by our opposition to Donald Trump. And now 0:08:31.840 --> 0:08:35.640 Graham Plattner has a forward looking message. So if Donald Trump, 0:08:35.720 --> 0:08:38.040 or if another Republican had a Nazi tattoo, I don't know, 0:08:38.080 --> 0:08:40.800 donald Trump has dinner with nazis not that far from 0:08:40.920 --> 0:08:44.120 you know, it's happening. But there's also plausible deniability regarding 0:08:44.200 --> 0:08:45.160 Grand Platter's tattoo. 0:08:45.200 --> 0:08:45.920 We don't know if he knew. 0:08:45.960 --> 0:08:46.640 We don't know what he knew. 0:08:46.720 --> 0:08:48.360 But it's not just the tattoo. 0:08:48.520 --> 0:08:49.760 That's it's not just the tattoo. 0:08:50.640 --> 0:08:54.440 It's not just the tattoo. Adam Mockler is a total phony, 0:08:54.600 --> 0:08:58.000 and he was doing cover for him because he's a 0:08:58.040 --> 0:09:00.840 young radical and that's his job. His job is to 0:09:00.840 --> 0:09:02.720 go up there and be the young guy that supports 0:09:02.760 --> 0:09:06.480 the new thing. It's so fresh, fresh face. Okay, got it. 0:09:06.920 --> 0:09:09.480 How about Hassan Piker, he supports them too, SOT six. 0:09:10.800 --> 0:09:13.920 Dude, are you on ironically saying Janet Mills is better 0:09:13.960 --> 0:09:15.320 than Graham Platner? 0:09:15.520 --> 0:09:15.920 Please? 0:09:16.080 --> 0:09:17.840 Dude? 0:09:17.920 --> 0:09:19.319 He was pro Hamas. 0:09:19.400 --> 0:09:23.120 Okay, he was giving Hamas credit in twenty fourteen. 0:09:24.720 --> 0:09:26.400 Okay, what more do you want? 0:09:27.480 --> 0:09:29.400 I think that really, I think that captures it better 0:09:29.440 --> 0:09:33.040 than anything the direction we're headed. Uh, but Southern twenty fourteen, 0:09:33.120 --> 0:09:35.880 we're gonna have Democrats who just love Hamas right now? 0:09:36.240 --> 0:09:40.840 Yeah, everything's great, all right, So I gotta go into 0:09:40.840 --> 0:09:43.000 a story that I don't really want to go into, 0:09:43.440 --> 0:09:47.520 but you know what, screw it. So there's a person 0:09:47.880 --> 0:09:51.080 named uh and it's so funny because I learned about 0:09:51.120 --> 0:09:54.839 the story this morning, and I was like, who her 0:09:54.920 --> 0:10:02.480 name is, Vivian Kubrick. Okay, so, Vivian apparently didn't like 0:10:03.960 --> 0:10:08.280 uh Erica's remarks earlier this week, and she went on 0:10:08.320 --> 0:10:15.240 some unhinged rant basically attacking Turning Point, attacking Erica, and 0:10:15.280 --> 0:10:17.840 I was like, who is this person? Like, you know what? 0:10:17.840 --> 0:10:17.920 What? 0:10:18.120 --> 0:10:21.480 Why do I care? Well, it's because she's the estranged 0:10:21.840 --> 0:10:27.240 daughter of the now deceased director Stanley Kubrick, who did 0:10:27.280 --> 0:10:29.400 a lot of famous movies. I think his last one 0:10:29.440 --> 0:10:35.200 was that creepy one with Nicole Kidman and Toms White Eyes, 0:10:35.240 --> 0:10:40.080 White Chet. That's right, the Shining. 0:10:40.960 --> 0:10:43.840 My favorite paths of Glory, Black and White, World War One. 0:10:43.880 --> 0:10:44.760 Oh I've not seen that. 0:10:44.840 --> 0:10:45.440 Oh it's good. 0:10:45.640 --> 0:10:48.480 Okay, well interesting, yeah, I mean a very illustrious director. 0:10:48.480 --> 0:10:51.080 But she's a daughter of a director, so like, who cares? 0:10:51.120 --> 0:10:54.600 But anyways, Uh, I took note of it because she 0:10:54.679 --> 0:10:59.600 basically says, uh that President Trump needs to kill Turning Point. 0:11:00.720 --> 0:11:03.840 So that was like in this whole unhinged rants. You'll 0:11:03.880 --> 0:11:07.080 see it right there in New York posts President Trump, 0:11:07.679 --> 0:11:10.880 you know, ask President Trump to kill Turning Point USA. 0:11:11.640 --> 0:11:16.400 So if you remember, like what Erica was even talking 0:11:16.440 --> 0:11:18.560 about this week, and we devoted a whole episode of 0:11:18.600 --> 0:11:20.320 the show to it, and Erica did a great job. 0:11:20.600 --> 0:11:23.960 She said, it's the dehumanizing language. And she was reflecting 0:11:23.960 --> 0:11:27.439 on the White House Correspondence dinner, the three assassination attempts 0:11:27.480 --> 0:11:31.280 on President Trump and obviously the assassination of Charlie and 0:11:31.880 --> 0:11:36.280 basically said, you know, dehumanizing people leads to a really 0:11:36.400 --> 0:11:38.760 ugly place and we need to stop. Enough is enough, 0:11:38.840 --> 0:11:41.280 We're done putting up with this and something needs to 0:11:41.320 --> 0:11:43.600 be done. And then you know, lo and beholds. Somebody 0:11:43.640 --> 0:11:49.920 that steps into this role is Stanley Kubrick's. Kubrick's a 0:11:50.000 --> 0:11:52.640 strange daughter who became a scientologist that looks like in 0:11:52.679 --> 0:11:56.760 the nineties and is now an avid supporter of people 0:11:56.840 --> 0:12:01.080 like Candice and other people that are into the conspiracy world. 0:12:01.120 --> 0:12:04.520 Apparently she was a q and on fan. So I 0:12:04.720 --> 0:12:08.280 just I'll be nice about it. I just want to 0:12:08.320 --> 0:12:12.000 say to say out loud that you want to kill 0:12:12.040 --> 0:12:15.480 turning point Usa, Vivian. I want you to understand that 0:12:15.559 --> 0:12:19.319 you are potentially stoking violent people to do crazy things 0:12:19.840 --> 0:12:22.320 and that does not end in a good place. And 0:12:22.360 --> 0:12:26.160 so I pray that you restrain yourself in the future 0:12:26.760 --> 0:12:30.120 and maybe get off the Internet and go enjoy life, 0:12:30.240 --> 0:12:33.400 because it's not worthy of anybody's time for you to 0:12:33.440 --> 0:12:36.600 be saying such vile things. It's not a good look 0:12:36.640 --> 0:12:38.880 for you, it's not good for us, it's not good 0:12:38.920 --> 0:12:41.679 for the country. It's not good for your family or 0:12:41.760 --> 0:12:45.440 your reputation. So please stop doing it. I don't know, Blake, 0:12:45.480 --> 0:12:47.800 if you have any any thoughts to to it, but 0:12:47.840 --> 0:12:50.480 I wanted to address it because it's just another one 0:12:50.520 --> 0:12:52.880 of these things that pops up and I want to 0:12:52.920 --> 0:12:53.320 do address. 0:12:53.520 --> 0:12:57.720 I guess it's just these like children of directors, it's there. 0:12:57.760 --> 0:13:03.319 They're even than children of actors or the actors themselves. 0:13:03.480 --> 0:13:07.679 Childhood actors, child actors, you know some child some ex 0:13:07.760 --> 0:13:13.120 child actors are great, but uh, ex child actors. I 0:13:13.120 --> 0:13:14.920 believe it was it was a former child actor who 0:13:14.920 --> 0:13:18.280 paid for the defense of Kyle Rittenhouse. That's that was 0:13:18.320 --> 0:13:20.719 a great that was a great heroic acts in a. 0:13:20.679 --> 0:13:23.079 Really good spot. That's what I want for all of that. 0:13:23.200 --> 0:13:23.520 I want. 0:13:23.559 --> 0:13:25.880 I want some children of directors to pay for for 0:13:26.000 --> 0:13:27.960 Daniel Penny's defense and the future. 0:13:29.720 --> 0:13:31.760 We have a deal to make with you if you 0:13:31.840 --> 0:13:34.600 are willing. We can bury the hatchet and listen like 0:13:34.679 --> 0:13:37.280 my heart is one of peace. I want love, I 0:13:37.320 --> 0:13:40.600 want harmony. But don't come at us like that, and 0:13:40.640 --> 0:13:44.800 don't come at Erica like that. That's not cool, that's mean, 0:13:45.720 --> 0:13:46.160 it's mean. 0:13:47.400 --> 0:13:49.640 We don't need a phrase. It that. Erica is a 0:13:49.679 --> 0:13:52.640 tough woman. She can end people. People are going to 0:13:52.640 --> 0:13:56.000 be mean. The left is very mean. But what she 0:13:56.080 --> 0:13:58.559 has been saying, I think is important to emphasize. She's 0:13:58.559 --> 0:14:02.120 talking about the dehumanizing rhetoric and what she's getting a 0:14:02.600 --> 0:14:04.640 I think is an important thing to say, which is, 0:14:04.960 --> 0:14:07.360 we have freedom of speech in the United States. And 0:14:07.400 --> 0:14:11.200 as you know, I'm basically an unhinged free speech absolutist. 0:14:11.600 --> 0:14:12.360 I don't. 0:14:12.400 --> 0:14:14.280 I don't hate speech is not a thing, not a 0:14:14.320 --> 0:14:15.960 thing in general. 0:14:16.440 --> 0:14:18.120 I don't speech speech. 0:14:18.440 --> 0:14:20.800 But a lot of people they'll they're much more willing 0:14:20.840 --> 0:14:24.920 to embrace. Oh, I think this statement is threatening or 0:14:25.040 --> 0:14:27.200 you know, should be indicted for this or that. And 0:14:27.280 --> 0:14:30.120 I'm almost always of the attitude that unless you are 0:14:30.440 --> 0:14:33.800 actively whipping up a mob to go burn someone's house down, 0:14:33.920 --> 0:14:37.240 go loot a business, go shoot someone, it's it's probably 0:14:37.240 --> 0:14:39.240 better to say that it's fine otherwise you're doubt you're 0:14:39.240 --> 0:14:43.560 going down the path towards Europe where saying any of them, let's. 0:14:43.320 --> 0:14:44.120 Just say it. 0:14:44.160 --> 0:14:48.760 And there's been some lines on this end. I think 0:14:49.040 --> 0:14:52.160 what Erica is pointing out is when you have people 0:14:52.520 --> 0:14:58.040 recklessly fanning flames of hate, that is the step towards 0:14:58.480 --> 0:15:02.040 where people decide, actually, we're okay with uh, we're okay 0:15:02.040 --> 0:15:04.520 with dialing back freedom of speech because the only reason 0:15:04.560 --> 0:15:06.920 we're going to have free speech stick around is if 0:15:06.960 --> 0:15:09.000 people want it to stick around and insists that it 0:15:09.080 --> 0:15:12.160 stick around. Right now, we keep it because we have 0:15:12.560 --> 0:15:16.280 a good legacy of federal judges in the twentieth century 0:15:16.360 --> 0:15:18.920 who really entrenched freedom of speech as a value in 0:15:18.960 --> 0:15:22.600 America such that it's hard to restrict speech. But the 0:15:22.680 --> 0:15:25.240 left wants to restrict speech. The left are the ones 0:15:25.280 --> 0:15:28.200 who go around saying, well, there's hate speech exceptions, okay, 0:15:28.240 --> 0:15:30.240 and the public will go along with this if they're 0:15:30.280 --> 0:15:31.800 thinking there's gonna be violence. 0:15:31.880 --> 0:15:33.920 I just want to be very clear, I'm not suggesting 0:15:33.920 --> 0:15:38.360 anybody's speech be restricted. I'm just saying I have my 0:15:38.360 --> 0:15:39.120 own free speech. 0:15:39.680 --> 0:15:42.280 We're gonna end up debating this in the next segment. 0:15:42.320 --> 0:15:44.600 Do we think do we think James Coley did anything wrong. 0:15:44.720 --> 0:15:47.000 Yeah, well, that's an open question that we're gonna have. 0:15:47.040 --> 0:15:49.200 We're gonna have Mike Davis on in the next segment 0:15:49.240 --> 0:15:51.160 to discuss just that. And by the way, we also 0:15:51.200 --> 0:15:54.160 have gotten word that the DOJ is going to enforce 0:15:55.120 --> 0:16:00.520 the Supreme Court ruling that has called racial jerrymandering illegal essentially, 0:16:01.360 --> 0:16:03.720 and so those two topics we're gonna get into with 0:16:03.760 --> 0:16:06.640 Mike Davis. But yeah, just to be very very clear, 0:16:07.280 --> 0:16:10.080 I don't believe in the concept of hate speech. I 0:16:10.120 --> 0:16:12.680 think there is gross speech, there is vile speech, there 0:16:12.720 --> 0:16:16.920 is unhinged speech, there is you know, all kinds of 0:16:16.920 --> 0:16:19.360 different categories. But I don't even believe in that category 0:16:19.360 --> 0:16:22.000 of hate speech, not in America at least. And that 0:16:22.120 --> 0:16:24.880 is a beautiful heritage that we have, and we need 0:16:24.920 --> 0:16:27.560 to keep it strong and instill it and make sure 0:16:27.600 --> 0:16:32.600 it's defended and protected. Absolutely, But that's not all, not 0:16:32.680 --> 0:16:36.400 at all what I was talking about, folks. Let me 0:16:36.440 --> 0:16:39.960 tell you something straight up. I'm extremely picky about what 0:16:40.000 --> 0:16:43.240 I put in my body in what companies we support. Here, 0:16:43.600 --> 0:16:47.280 Blackout Coffee checks every single box.

Welcome back to 0:17:54.840 --> 0:17:56.120 the Charlie Kirkshaw. How you been. 0:17:56.520 --> 0:17:58.720 I've been great. Thanks for having me back on cash. 0:17:58.920 --> 0:18:00.720 So we've got a couple things that are on the 0:18:01.440 --> 0:18:07.720 docket today, one of which is this Komy indictment, so 0:18:08.560 --> 0:18:10.159 we'll put that one bucket. And then the other is 0:18:10.200 --> 0:18:13.800 this doj is now publicly said they're going to enforce 0:18:13.920 --> 0:18:17.960 the Scotus ruling on maps and redistricting. Both legal questions 0:18:18.440 --> 0:18:22.880 with a lot of I guess unanswered questions. So let's 0:18:22.880 --> 0:18:26.639 start with Komy. Blake is not convinced. What do you 0:18:26.720 --> 0:18:30.159 think did he do something when he posted that picture 0:18:30.320 --> 0:18:34.280 eighty six forty seven? Did he make a threat against 0:18:34.320 --> 0:18:35.359 the President's life? 0:18:35.600 --> 0:18:39.600 Yes, And you do not have a First Amendment right 0:18:40.240 --> 0:18:43.520 to threaten the president's life. You do not have a 0:18:43.560 --> 0:18:46.879 first Amendment right to threaten any federal officials lives. 0:18:47.960 --> 0:18:50.960 There's a criminal statutes that are on the books. 0:18:51.200 --> 0:18:55.080 One is if you make an assassination attempt against the president, 0:18:55.720 --> 0:18:59.199 you're charged with that felony or make it a none 0:18:59.240 --> 0:19:01.560 an attempt, excuse me, threat against the president. You're charged 0:19:01.560 --> 0:19:04.760 with that felony. The others if you transmit it online, 0:19:04.800 --> 0:19:08.119 that's another felony. That's exactly what happened with James coming. 0:19:08.200 --> 0:19:12.800 James Cummy is not your average Joe who does not 0:19:13.680 --> 0:19:17.879 understand what he's doing. He is a former FBI director, 0:19:18.359 --> 0:19:22.000 he is a former Deputy Attorney General, the number two 0:19:22.720 --> 0:19:23.800 in the Justice Department. 0:19:23.840 --> 0:19:26.240 He's a former US attorney. 0:19:26.640 --> 0:19:31.399 He posted this eighty six forty seven seashell threat on 0:19:31.520 --> 0:19:39.040 Instagram after two assassination attempts against the president of the 0:19:39.160 --> 0:19:44.520 United States. He did this within days of releasing his 0:19:44.680 --> 0:19:51.639 new novel about cod it threats by right wingers. James 0:19:51.640 --> 0:19:53.960 Cummy knew exactly what he was doing. This is after 0:19:54.000 --> 0:19:54.800 the election. 0:19:54.640 --> 0:19:57.879 Mike, he was in Yeah, I think this is some 0:19:57.960 --> 0:19:59.800 of the context that gets lost in this debate. And 0:20:00.080 --> 0:20:03.120 and listen, I'm a little bit I'm not sure what's 0:20:03.119 --> 0:20:05.800 going to happen here, if this if this indictment's gonna 0:20:05.800 --> 0:20:08.159 stick and he's gonna get convicted. But I think that 0:20:08.280 --> 0:20:11.280 context is really important. So as a former FBI director, 0:20:11.320 --> 0:20:14.480 he obviously is very aware of criminal elements and criminality 0:20:14.520 --> 0:20:18.520 in general. Right. Secondly, President Trump at this point had 0:20:18.560 --> 0:20:22.520 just been survived two assassination attempts well, and he wrote 0:20:22.560 --> 0:20:27.880 a book about coded assassination attempts. That part of this story, 0:20:28.000 --> 0:20:30.760 I think it's lost, you know when you look at CNN, 0:20:30.880 --> 0:20:33.439 or you look at MS now or whatever, even Fox, whatever, 0:20:34.000 --> 0:20:36.480 but that those are relevant and pertinent details. Go ahead. 0:20:36.640 --> 0:20:39.400 First of all, I don't even say eighty six isn't 0:20:39.440 --> 0:20:43.000 even a doesn't even mean kill somebody. Well, it can, 0:20:43.200 --> 0:20:47.240 it will, Okay, it can, but so can like get 0:20:47.320 --> 0:20:49.760 rid of Okay, So if you say we should get 0:20:49.840 --> 0:20:52.440 rid of Trump, is that an assassination threat? I don't 0:20:52.440 --> 0:20:52.720 think so. 0:20:52.880 --> 0:20:54.760 No, no, no, if you say get rid of Trump, no, 0:20:55.240 --> 0:20:57.800 absolutely not. I think the question here is when you 0:20:57.920 --> 0:21:01.160 when you talk about eighty six ing somebody, it could 0:21:01.200 --> 0:21:03.080 be like the president I think did a truth on 0:21:03.119 --> 0:21:05.600 this where it could be like mobs speak violence speak 0:21:07.359 --> 0:21:10.080 for killing somebody. But that is one of the alternative meanings. 0:21:10.119 --> 0:21:13.199
