Were just learning today that there 65 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 5: is evidence of quid pro quo foreign corruption. With that 66 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 5: that the Biden Justice Department sat on, and then with 67 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 5: Crossfire Hurricane, they wanted to take out President Trump's campaign. 68 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 5: So if these damning, if this damning evidence came out 69 00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 5: of Hillary Clinton's corruption because her server got hacked, that 70 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 5: she wanted to be able to point to the Trump 71 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 5: campaign and say, you can't believe this is a campaign, 72 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 5: dirty trick, this is a hoax. They did the same 73 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 5: thing with Hunter Biden's laptop in twenty twenty, so the 74 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 5: FBI knew they didn't have probable cause to do this 75 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:20,040 Speaker 5: raid to get back these Crossfire Hurricane records, you have 76 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 5: this US magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhardt in the Southern District 77 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 5: of Florida, who was on the Trump versus Hillary civil case. 78 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 5: He had to recuse because he had twenty seventeen Facebook 79 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,359 Speaker 5: post trashing President Trump, so obviously he's not going to 80 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 5: be a fair judge. Six weeks later, that judicial bias 81 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 5: somehow magically disappeared when Jay Bratz from the Biden Justice 82 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 5: Department who went on to work for Jack Smith, went 83 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:52,280 Speaker 5: to Bruce Reinhardt and got this unprecedented's unlawful home raid 84 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,159 Speaker 5: on Trump when they knew they didn't have probable cause. 85 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 5: It's so damning. I've talked about this for a long time. 86 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 5: They've opened up a new grand jury in Fort Pierce, Florida, 87 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 5: in the Southern District of Florida. My friend Jason Redding 88 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 5: Quinones is Trump's new US attorney, and I have very 89 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,719 Speaker 5: publicly called for a grand jury to probe all of 90 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 5: this and hold all of these lawfare democrats and other 91 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,720 Speaker 5: bad actors accountable for this, because this is the biggest 92 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:24,480 Speaker 5: scandal in American history. 93 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 2: Wow, So you've got you know, what will never cease 94 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 2: to amaze me is that you have these federal judges 95 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,919 Speaker 2: that just go on Facebook and like Trump's terrible, Like 96 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,479 Speaker 2: I mean, like the fact that a judge would feel 97 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 2: so you know, loose to something, to say something political 98 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:47,359 Speaker 2: publicly on a social media site. It just it's just damning. 99 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 2: I mean, in and of itself, I just find it 100 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 2: really crass in low class. Actually, I don't know, I 101 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:54,720 Speaker 2: don't know if you're trying to chime in here, but 102 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 2: it's just like you, you know, judges, you have this 103 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 2: air of impartiality, you have an air of above the fray, 104 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 2: and then you just go on to Facebook and like 105 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 2: Trump sucks, Like okay, I don't know. 106 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 4: It just seems beneath the office. Yeah, it is. 107 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,160 Speaker 5: It's also a violation of the judicial cannons. But I 108 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 5: would say this about that US Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart 109 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,719 Speaker 5: at the timing of that Maro Lago rate seems very fishy. 110 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 5: He recuses in the civil lawsuit. Six weeks later, the 111 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 5: recusal issue goes away, and all of a sudden, Jay 112 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 5: Bratt is down in Maro a Lagos sniffing around and 113 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:30,479 Speaker 5: coming up with a pretext that through this trade for 114 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 5: presidential records that the president is allowed to have under 115 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:39,159 Speaker 5: the Presidential Records Act. What did Bruce Reinhardt talk to 116 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 5: Jay Bratts about this? How did Ja Bratt know that 117 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 5: these documents were going to be produced in that civil 118 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 5: lawsuit versus Hilary when it was This whole thing needs 119 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 5: to be investigated, and all of these bad actors need 120 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 5: to be investigated, including these judges. 121 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,600 Speaker 2: So you say we need accountability here, I would agree, 122 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 2: Mike Davis Article three project. What so you form a 123 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 2: grand jury? What would accountability look like for somebody like 124 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 2: Jack Smith? 125 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 5: The accountability would be what we've been talking about for 126 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 5: over three years. You open up a criminal probe under 127 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 5: eighteen USC. Section two forty one. Conspiracy against rights when 128 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 5: you politicize and weaponize intel agencies and law enforcement to 129 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 5: go after your political enemies for non crimes. That's the 130 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 5: textbook definition of conspiracy against rights. Jack Smith is very 131 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 5: well aware of this conspiracy against rights crime because it's 132 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 5: one of the four charges he made against President Trump 133 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 5: for the non crime of the non crime of President 134 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 5: Trump objecting to a presidential election, which is allowed by 135 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 5: the Electoral Count Act of eighteen eighty seven and the 136 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 5: First Amendment. Jack Smith can go into that closed door 137 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 5: hearing and say whatever he wants. He said he had 138 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 5: all the goods, he had all the evidence to get 139 00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 5: President Trump. He didn't. This guy is a part of 140 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 5: scud Missile, who Democrats sent in to take out Republican 141 00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 5: presidential candidates. They'd sent in Jack Smith to take out 142 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 5: former Virginia Governor Bob McDonald when he was a likely 143 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 5: presidential candidate for Republicans. Jack Smith got a criminal conviction 144 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 5: for fraud. It got overturned eight to nothing by the 145 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 5: Supreme Court of the United States. It would have been 146 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 5: nine to nothing, but Justice Scalia died. But Jack Smith 147 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 5: didn't care that the damage was done. He took out 148 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 5: Reverend mcgovernor McDonald as a presidential candidate. Jack Smith got 149 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 5: banished to the Hey, he should have lost his law 150 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 5: license after that. He's after you get beat eight to 151 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 5: nothing at the Supreme Court. It's very hard to get 152 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 5: beat eight to nothing at the Supreme Court, particularly on 153 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 5: a criminal case. But Jack Smith found the way and 154 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 5: they brought him back. The Biden regime brought him back 155 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 5: to take out Trump at all costs. They failed because 156 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 5: President Trump hired John Sower than now the Solicitor General, 157 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:03,559 Speaker 5: and John Sower the presidential immunity argument, which stopped the 158 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 5: prosecutions in their tracks. But if John Sower didn't do that, 159 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 5: President Trump would be sitting in a prison cell right 160 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 5: now instead of the White House. 161 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 3: But it does strike me, isn't that probably the best 162 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 3: defense Jack Smith could make is you can say it's politicized. 163 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 3: I think we agree it felt politicized, but a lot 164 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 3: of it is if they can cover it with enough 165 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 3: measure of legal formality. 166 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 4: And getting evidence. 167 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 3: He brings up we have part of his statement and 168 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 3: he said, I just brought the charges that a grand 169 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 3: jury returns. So doesn't he have sort of a pretty 170 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,080 Speaker 3: strong defense of a grand jury agreed with us? 171 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 4: Yep. 172 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 5: Everyone knows that a grand jury will indict a ham Sandwich. 173 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:49,440 Speaker 5: And you have a separate duty as a prosecutor to 174 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 5: make sure that you have probable cause to make sure 175 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 5: that there is a good faith legal basis for what 176 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 5: you're doing, to make sure that you're not bringing not 177 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 5: he remember what Jack Smith did. He brought novel legal charges. 178 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 5: He tried to throw Trump in prison for the non 179 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:07,960 Speaker 5: crime of having presidential records, which is allowed by the 180 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 5: Presidential Records Act. He tried to throw Trump in prison 181 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,679 Speaker 5: for the non crime of objecting to a presidential election, 182 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 5: which is allowed by the Electoral Account Act of eighteen 183 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:20,199 Speaker 5: eighty seven. In the First Amendment, Jack Smith politicized and 184 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:23,960 Speaker 5: weaponized intel agencies and law enforcement to take out trouble 185 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 5: Law with many many others, and Jack Smith can raise 186 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 5: that defense to the jury. 187 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 7: This is Lane Schumberger, chief investment officer and founding partner 188 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 7: of y Refi.

They have a three step process, multi tier process, 216 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 2: and there's lawyers at every step of the way. Is 217 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,679 Speaker 2: there any concern that you know that they're gonna have 218 00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:00,440 Speaker 2: any legal basis to attack Pete Hegseth when he's no 219 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:02,840 Speaker 2: longer Secretary of War for example, or any of the 220 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 2: people in the chain of command. 221 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 5: Here, President of the United States, as the commander in chief, 222 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:15,239 Speaker 5: has the constitutional and statutory power and duty to protect 223 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 5: our nation, including repelling an invasion. And that's exactly what's 224 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 5: going on here. You have these Narco boats bringing in 225 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 5: fence and all that's killing tens of thousands of Americans, 226 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 5: and that the President is well within his constitutional and 227 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 5: statutory authority. He's well within his constitutional authority as the 228 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 5: commander in chief. Under the Commander in Chief Clause even 229 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 5: if there's not a declaration of war, because going back 230 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:46,199 Speaker 5: to our founding, everyone agrees that the president can repel 231 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:49,960 Speaker 5: an invasion into our country. And also under the War 232 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 5: Powers Act of nineteen seventy three, passed by Congress over 233 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 5: President Nixon's veto, many presidents do not consider the War 234 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 5: Powers Act constant utional because they think it constrains too 235 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 5: much of the president's power to fight wars and to 236 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 5: defend our country. But even if you think that the 237 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 5: War Powers Act of nineteen seventy three is constitutional, what 238 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:19,560 Speaker 5: President Trump is doing is within his statutory powers under 239 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 5: the War Powers Act of nineteen seventy three. There's no 240 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 5: legal issue here whatsoever. And I don't remember these Democrats 241 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 5: like Senator Mark Kelly complaining when President Obama ordered extra 242 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:37,600 Speaker 5: judicial drone strikes on American citizens abroad, including a minor 243 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 5: so and I supported that if President Obama at drone 244 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:47,199 Speaker 5: strike Americans, President Trump and certainly Bob Narco boats. 245 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 3: Are there any limits on what he could choose to bomb? 246 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 4: I suppose sure. 247 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 5: I mean there are limits if you have to show 248 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 5: that they're you know, if the president is bombing things 249 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 5: that are not danger to the United States, then sure, 250 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 5: there could be limits on that, but it's the president 251 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 5: has very broad discretion. He has very broad power and 252 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:12,679 Speaker 5: very broad discretion as the chief executive officer and as 253 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:16,479 Speaker 5: the commander in chief as it relates to controlling our military, 254 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 5: protecting our country, protecting shipping lanes, protecting our allies. He 255 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 5: has broad powers. Remember that if you look at the Constitution, 256 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 5: that the Congress has the power to declare war, not 257 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:30,920 Speaker 5: make war, right, So there's a difference there, And the 258 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,720 Speaker 5: founders actually debated that. If you go back and look 259 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 5: at the Federalist papers, they intentionally changed that language from 260 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 5: make war to declare war to give the president more leeway, 261 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 5: more running room to protect our country. 262 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 4: Yeah. 263 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm mostly just worried that, you know, if 264 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 2: the future elections don't go our way, that they're going 265 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 2: to try and you know, throw secretary headset in the gulag. 266 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 4: I doubt they would. 267 00:14:56,960 --> 00:15:00,240 Speaker 3: I think there's probably a I mean, there's I guess 268 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 3: I shouldn't say they won't, because there's really no limit 269 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 3: to the damage the left might do to the country 270 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 3: in a fit of peak. 271 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:07,240 Speaker 4: But I think. 272 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,000 Speaker 3: Historically, at least there would be a very strong bipartisan 273 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 3: hesitancy to have our military leaders be second guessing actions 274 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 3: they take because they're just going to get prosecuted for it. 275 00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 3: Sound a party because at that point an if they're 276 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 3: going to throw out that, they could do it for 277 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 3: probably any other military action as well. I think you 278 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 3: need a more clear cut unanimity on it being something 279 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 3: completely unacceptable, you know, massacre of village in Rightetnam, where 280 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 3: they had evidence that was clear. 281 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 2: That they were only civilians. For for example, Mike, we've got 282 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 2: only about a minute and a half left in this segment, 283 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 2: but I wanted to play this cut from a judge 284 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 2: Janine or I guess US attorney Jeanine Piro two ninety one. 285 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:52,160 Speaker 8: There certainly was an effort to you know, misclassify, mischaracterize 286 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 8: certain categories of crime, and it was an attempt to 287 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 8: make crime look lower than it was. And the investigation 288 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,240 Speaker 8: that we inducted over a period of several months based 289 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 8: upon the report of the deflation of numbers, it was 290 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 8: very thorough. As you indicated, over six thousand reports were 291 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 8: looked at, over fifty witnesses, and those witnesses were rank 292 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:16,800 Speaker 8: and filed from the top down. But the bottom line 293 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 8: here is this now we're in a situation with President 294 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:23,840 Speaker 8: Trump and the Attorney General Pam BONDI, where every case 295 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 8: is being looked at, every case is being reviewed by 296 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 8: my office. 297 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 2: My questions quick here, Mike, What can you do? I 298 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 2: guess state level other states are probably cooking the books 299 00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:35,840 Speaker 2: on crime stats as well, but at least in DC 300 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 2: there are some federal control. How do you fix this? 301 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:40,040 Speaker 2: Who can you hold accountable? 302 00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:42,360 Speaker 5: I would open a criminal proll because if you are 303 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 5: making false statements to the federal government with your crime 304 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 5: statistics in order to get, for example, more grant money, 305 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 5: you could be charged for that. You could be charged 306 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 5: for fraud. You could be charged for conspiracy. 307 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:58,120 Speaker 4: Can judge the charge? Hinjinine Piro do that? 308 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 5: She could? I think you should look more closely at this. 309 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 4: Mike Davis, thanks for the time, my friend, will see 310 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 4: you soon. 311 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,600 Speaker 5: Thank you. 312 00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:11,679 Speaker 2: You know, I've been thinking about how much culture is 313 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:14,199 Speaker 2: shaped by what we choose to watch, because, whether we 314 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:16,639 Speaker 2: realize it or not, the stories we invite into our 315 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 2: homes shape the way we see the world.

All right, so, Senator Mike Lee, welcome back 333 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,159 Speaker 2: to the show. It's great to have you. Thank you 334 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:16,119 Speaker 2: for making the time. There has been a raging debate 335 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:18,399 Speaker 2: online and then I think Mark Waynemullen, one of your 336 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 2: senate colleagues who also comes on the show often, he 337 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,199 Speaker 2: sort of seemed like he was now open to the 338 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 2: idea of nuking the filibuster. I had all these questions, 339 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 2: why if we don't you know, you got Mitch McConnell, 340 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:33,119 Speaker 2: you got Susan Collins Murkowski. I don't know what you 341 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 2: could even get accomplished if you do nuke the philibuster. 342 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 2: And then you came out with this tweet threeh eight 343 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,240 Speaker 2: you say, the chronic abuse of the Senate sixty vote 344 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 2: cloture standard must come to an end. Now the Senate 345 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:48,960 Speaker 2: GOP must immediately start fighting cloture abuse by, among other things, 346 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:54,399 Speaker 2: requiring senators to debate. So lay out how this is 347 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 2: distinct from just nuking the filibuster. 348 00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 9: Look, these are all ways that we're focused on to 349 00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 9: try to and filibuster abuse and cloture abuse. And first 350 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:09,359 Speaker 9: let me explain what cloture is and what the filibuster is. 351 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:13,960 Speaker 9: The Senate from the very beginning of its existence, for 352 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 9: nearly two and a half centuries, has had as a 353 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:21,760 Speaker 9: general rule unlimited debate that you allow as long as 354 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 9: any senator wants to debate, debate will continue. Now, starting 355 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:31,359 Speaker 9: about a century ago, I think it was maybe in 356 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,360 Speaker 9: nineteen seventeen, they came up with a means by which 357 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:37,399 Speaker 9: they could bring debate to a close. Initially it required 358 00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:40,639 Speaker 9: a three fourth supermajority that was later lowered to a 359 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 9: two third supermajority. It's now a three fifths supermajority and 360 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 9: has been there for about fifty years. Meeting in a 361 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:52,439 Speaker 9: one hundred vote senate, you've got to have sixty votes 362 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:56,000 Speaker 9: from sixty different senators to bring debate to a close. Then, 363 00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:57,920 Speaker 9: and only then can you bring debate to a close. 364 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 9: So the whole point of this cloture rule, it's not 365 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:06,359 Speaker 9: to create a de facto sixty vote threshold for passing 366 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:10,639 Speaker 9: legislation itself. It often has that effect, but really the 367 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:12,440 Speaker 9: purpose of it is to extend debate. 368 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,440 Speaker 6: In lesser until you get sixty votes to bring debate 369 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:17,720 Speaker 6: to a close. Here's what it's metastasized into. Though. 370 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:21,639 Speaker 9: What it's turned into is something very interesting. It's turned 371 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:25,280 Speaker 9: into people saying, well, I don't want to vote for it, 372 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:29,960 Speaker 9: I won't support cloture. Therefore I don't have to debate it, 373 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:35,959 Speaker 9: and I can kill it simply by refusing to support culture. 374 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,760 Speaker 9: But then we don't require them to debate, and so 375 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 9: this allows them a cheap and easy way of creating 376 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,359 Speaker 9: a de facto sixty vote threshold. 377 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,000 Speaker 6: For passing legislation. That's not how it's supposed to work. 378 00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,400 Speaker 9: The point is this, if we enforce the cloture rule, 379 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 9: we could end cloture abuse and we could end this 380 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:59,040 Speaker 9: perpetual tail chasing model in which even when Republicans control 381 00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 9: the Senate and the House and the White House as 382 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 9: we currently do, we just take all sorts of things 383 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:06,399 Speaker 9: off the table. 384 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 6: We can't accomplish this. We can't accomplish that. Why well, 385 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 6: because we don't have sixty votes. There are other ways 386 00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:12,679 Speaker 6: that break through this. 387 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 9: You enforce the rules by requiring them to debate, and 388 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 9: then the minute they stop debating, either because you've physically 389 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:24,040 Speaker 9: exhausted them or because they have exhausted their. 390 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 6: Right to continue speaking. We have a number of rules about. 391 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 9: That, including you can only speak twice on the same 392 00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:32,879 Speaker 9: legislative day, on the same discrete legislative matter. If they 393 00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 9: have exhausted either themselves physically or their right to speak, 394 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 9: that moment, you can call of the vote and that 395 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,200 Speaker 9: vote is cast as simple majority threshold and you can 396 00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 9: get a lot past. 397 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:45,440 Speaker 6: We haven't been doing that. We need to get back 398 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 6: into that business. 399 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's so you're basically you know you've seen these. 400 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 2: Senator Cruz did the marathon. You had Corey Booker do 401 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:57,119 Speaker 2: these marathon Is that kind of what if we change 402 00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 2: the rules? I have a question about how you would 403 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 2: actually change it. But if we actually started enforcing in person, 404 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 2: you know, irl debate on the floor of the Senate, 405 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 2: that's what you would basically start seeing, is you'd start seeing, yes, 406 00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:13,120 Speaker 2: fifty senators doing marathon debate to try and outlast their opponent. 407 00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 4: Basically, that's right, that's right. 408 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:19,320 Speaker 9: The problem with today's filibuster is that it's not really 409 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:23,680 Speaker 9: a filibuster. It's not Jimmy Stewart speaking until he collapses 410 00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:24,600 Speaker 9: on the Senate floor. 411 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 6: So at no point have Democrats. 412 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,440 Speaker 9: This year, while we've held the Senate and the House 413 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 9: in the White House, at no point of Democrats been 414 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,639 Speaker 9: forced to go down to the floor and talk without 415 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:39,000 Speaker 9: stopping to defend their terrible policies until they have to 416 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 9: go to the bathroom or get some sleep, or until 417 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 9: everybody who wants to speak and debate on it have 418 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 9: exhausted their ability to do so. That is what most 419 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 9: Americans justifiably understand the filibuster to be. And it's not 420 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:54,120 Speaker 9: happening because we're not enforcing our own rules. 421 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm seeing this could have the beneficial side effect. 422 00:22:56,880 --> 00:23:00,399 Speaker 3: It might force some earlier retirements by some as. 423 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 4: You just say I'm not up for eight eight hours. 424 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 2: You'd start having to elect in the primaries like based 425 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 2: on like youth and vigor, because we need a guy 426 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 2: that can actually. 427 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:12,399 Speaker 3: Like stand on the Senate floor to drafting a hockey team. 428 00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:14,760 Speaker 3: This guy's got quite as based on the policies, but 429 00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 3: he's a great stammin Yeah. 430 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 2: Great, Sammy. This is what we've done with Supreme Court. 431 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 2: It's like, what are they thirty seven? Yeah, let's yeah, 432 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 2: that's that's interesting. So how would you go about changing 433 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:28,120 Speaker 2: the rules? What needs to happen? Could this be a 434 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:30,359 Speaker 2: majority leader Thune? Could he get this done? 435 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 6: Essentially? Yes. 436 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:35,760 Speaker 9: So that's the beauty of this thing, Andrews that no 437 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 9: rules change is required. We don't have to do anything 438 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:43,679 Speaker 9: to change them because the rules not only already allow this, 439 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 9: the rules already contemplate that this is what a filibuster is. 440 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:51,399 Speaker 9: So remember, Democrats have been able to use just the 441 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 9: mere concept of a talking filibuster to grind things from. 442 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 6: A halt, and we've allowed them to do that. 443 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 9: Because we haven't enforced it, So yes, if we adopted 444 00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:06,000 Speaker 9: this standpoint, the majority leader in a consultation with whoever 445 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,959 Speaker 9: is sitting in the presiding Officer's chair at the moment 446 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:12,160 Speaker 9: it decides that he's. 447 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 6: That we're going to begin enforcing this. 448 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:18,119 Speaker 9: And the minute they're not there to debate, either because 449 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,960 Speaker 9: they physically don't want to or because they can't because 450 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:25,000 Speaker 9: they've exhausted their right to do so under our existing rules, 451 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:27,920 Speaker 9: then you call the question, you meaning, you call the 452 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:31,480 Speaker 9: vote on that matter, and when there's nobody there debating it, 453 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:37,320 Speaker 9: the passage that the passage of that legislation is set 454 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 9: at a simple majority. 455 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 2: That is a really I mean, it does strike me 456 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,719 Speaker 2: when I saw you tweet this out, Senator, I was like, 457 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 2: this is I mean, you do think of the Senate 458 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:52,600 Speaker 2: being the premier legislative body in the world, that you 459 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,199 Speaker 2: think of all this vigorous debate that happens on the 460 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 2: Senate floor, But it's really not like that. It's a 461 00:24:57,280 --> 00:24:59,639 Speaker 2: bunch of grand standing for clips, and so you can 462 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:02,360 Speaker 2: post them on social and you can, you know, take 463 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 2: cheap shots at your opponents without them answering back, and 464 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 2: and then you don't really debate that's the whole point 465 00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:10,760 Speaker 2: of culture, is that you just you, you stave off 466 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 2: actual vigorous debate. And it wouldn't the Senate be benefited 467 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:16,760 Speaker 2: by this back and forth of ideas. 468 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:18,199 Speaker 4: I mean it does. 469 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,640 Speaker 2: It does strike me that this is your you're sort 470 00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:22,280 Speaker 2: of getting it back to its original purpose. 471 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 6: No, that's exactly right now. I will be clear. 472 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,159 Speaker 9: There are times when real debate does happen on the 473 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:32,600 Speaker 9: Senate floor. Sometimes it's in slow motion, but sometimes there's 474 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:37,440 Speaker 9: no debate going on at all, which brings back, brings 475 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 9: us back to how we would do this. The only 476 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:43,320 Speaker 9: real catch here what's difficult about this. I don't mean 477 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:45,399 Speaker 9: to describe this as easy, and I don't mean to 478 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:47,919 Speaker 9: suggest that the minute we decided to do this, we 479 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:51,919 Speaker 9: could and would immediately pass everything that we wanted without 480 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 9: any hitch or without any difficulty, And. 481 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:54,439 Speaker 6: That's not true. 482 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 9: But it gives us the opportunity to do that, and 483 00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:00,520 Speaker 9: I think in many cases we would be the past 484 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 9: things that we wouldn't otherwise be able to do. 485 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:04,359 Speaker 6: But here's the catch. 486 00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 9: The catch is that Republicans would need, as the majority 487 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:10,439 Speaker 9: party in the Senate, would need to show up and 488 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:15,439 Speaker 9: spend significant time on the Senate floor, the Republican leadership. 489 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 6: Yeah right, I mean, but that is what we signed 490 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 6: up for. 491 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 9: We've often been told as senators, you know, if you 492 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 9: don't want to fight hires, don't become a firefighter. And 493 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:31,000 Speaker 9: if you don't want to cast difficult votes at inconvenient times, 494 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 9: don't become a lawmaker. Don't come to the United States Senate. 495 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 9: If we decided as a conference we're going to do this, 496 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:42,919 Speaker 9: there's a lot more that we could accomplish, and we 497 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,879 Speaker 9: could do it this way without having to change a 498 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:49,680 Speaker 9: single rule. It really is the natural fulfillment of what 499 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 9: the filibuster is supposed to be. Right now, we don't 500 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:57,000 Speaker 9: have real filibusters. We just have chronic cloture abuse. And 501 00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 9: then we deceive the public into thinking that the reason 502 00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 9: we can't do some of the things that we want to. 503 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 6: Do is because we don't have sixty votes. 504 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,639 Speaker 9: Well, it's been over one hundred years since Republicans have 505 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 9: had sixty votes in the Senate, that three fifths supermajority. 506 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 9: And that's why we can't blame it all on the filibuster, 507 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 9: because it's born on the seventeenth. 508 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:19,199 Speaker 2: You can blame it on the seventeenth. But that's you know, 509 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 2: I hadn't even Yeah, I haven't even thought about that. 510 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:22,080 Speaker 4: Senator that we have. 511 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 2: It's been over one hundred years since we've had sixty 512 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:25,440 Speaker 2: Republican senators. 513 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 4: One hundred years. 514 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 2: I mean, if we think we're ever going So my 515 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:32,359 Speaker 2: big thing, Senator Lee, is that I want immigration reform. 516 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 2: That's what I think that. I think it is the 517 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,680 Speaker 2: switch that you could flip that would solve a ton 518 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 2: of our problems. That's me personally. I think there's a 519 00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:43,440 Speaker 2: lot of energy for that in the base. But we're 520 00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 2: never going to get there with this Democrat party. There's 521 00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 2: the But here's my concern is that even if we 522 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 2: got there, we nuked the filibuster, we don't have enough 523 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:54,800 Speaker 2: votes to do anything important anyways. So the question is, 524 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,199 Speaker 2: you know, will Senator Thoon, have you pitched this to 525 00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:00,639 Speaker 2: Senator Thuon, Leader Thoon, have you pitched this to the 526 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:02,640 Speaker 2: President of the White House? Is this something that could 527 00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 2: actually gain momentum, attraction and become a thing. 528 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 6: I have pitched it. 529 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:08,359 Speaker 9: To the President, I've pitched it to Leader through and 530 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 9: I've pitched it to Senate Republicans. I've pitched it to 531 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:15,400 Speaker 9: the White House staff, and I have yet to hear 532 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:20,479 Speaker 9: anyone identify a reason why it couldn't work. Sometimes people 533 00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:24,800 Speaker 9: will point out correctly what the difficulty could be, and 534 00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:27,680 Speaker 9: the difficulty is exactly what I just described it as, 535 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:32,120 Speaker 9: which is that it would require attendance and prolonged attendance 536 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:35,880 Speaker 9: at inconvenient hours. But nobody has explained any reason why 537 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 9: it wouldn't work. And while there are some difficulties inherent 538 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:43,720 Speaker 9: in that, I think we owe that to the American 539 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 9: people at a time when we've had millions upon millions 540 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:50,719 Speaker 9: of people coming into our country illegally under the over 541 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:52,200 Speaker 9: the last four years, at a. 542 00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:54,560 Speaker 6: Time when our laws are making it very difficult. 543 00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 9: That is becoming an obvious in litigation pending now in 544 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:02,440 Speaker 9: the District of ill Be over our ability to deport 545 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:06,920 Speaker 9: those individuals who came in unlawfully, given the now huge 546 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:08,880 Speaker 9: backlog we have in our immigration course. 547 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 6: Yes, we've got to have reform in that area. 548 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 9: We need permitting reform, we need regulatory reform, we need 549 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 9: to pass the Reins Act. 550 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 6: All these things could benefit from this strategy. 551 00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 4: I think it's brilliant. 552 00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 2: I think I don't see a good example or a 553 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 2: good reason to not do it as you said, and 554 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 2: senators should be pulling long hours. Our US senator should 555 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:29,640 Speaker 2: be pulling very long hours, Senator Mike Lee, a really 556 00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 2: amazing idea.

It's sort of a funny thing. You can 600 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 3: read about these great debates in the United States House 601 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:40,480 Speaker 3: and in the United States Senate. In the eighteen hundreds, 602 00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 3: you have this speech on the Senate floor that's so 603 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,560 Speaker 3: fiery by Charles Sumner that this guy from South Carolina 604 00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:47,840 Speaker 3: comes in and beats him over the head with a 605 00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:50,720 Speaker 3: cane in front of everybody. Because the senators would be 606 00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 3: there and debate in person, and they don't anymore. You 607 00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 3: get this myth because of c Span that they're doing that, 608 00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 3: but they're not. It's they're just speaking to an empty 609 00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:00,560 Speaker 3: hall and some yawning tourists. 610 00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 4: Yeah. 611 00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:03,960 Speaker 2: I think you imagine it more like like you know 612 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:05,200 Speaker 2: the Oxford Union. 613 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, or don't do that. 614 00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:10,280 Speaker 3: In the UK, they have Prime Minister's questions.

I 617 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:18,240 Speaker 3: would love to see you've lost that. It would be 618 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 3: good to restore that that said, I think this is 619 00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:23,320 Speaker 3: just a slightly different, dressed up way to nuke the filibuster. 620 00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 4: I mean, yeah, it's it. 621 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:28,239 Speaker 2: But I actually do think I was compelled by a 622 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 2: return to what it should be, what it was supposed 623 00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:34,480 Speaker 2: to be.
