1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:06,080 Speaker 1: The Epstein files to be released, passes the House of 2 00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:11,640 Speaker 1: Representatives with one no vote. That no vote belonged to 3 00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:17,760 Speaker 1: Representative Clay Higgins, who made, I think a rational argument 4 00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:24,520 Speaker 1: that the issue is we haven't redacted any of the 5 00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:27,680 Speaker 1: names of the victims, and what if they don't want 6 00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:34,000 Speaker 1: their names released. This was a discharge petition that went 7 00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:38,120 Speaker 1: to the House. The discharge petition goes around the regular 8 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:42,000 Speaker 1: system and says, if you have a plurality, a majority, 9 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,919 Speaker 1: i should say, of members of the House, you can 10 00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:48,239 Speaker 1: bring a bill directly to the floor for an up 11 00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 1: and down vote. Okay, that's what happened, and nobody wanted 12 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 1: to be on record saying no to the release of 13 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 1: the Epstein file, So everybody voted for the release of 14 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 1: the Epstein files. The Senate engage what it's known as 15 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 1: unanimous consent decree, and by doing so, they never voted. 16 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 1: They already said, well, the minute the legislation arrives, consider 17 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:15,560 Speaker 1: it passed, and send it directly on to the President's desk. 18 00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 1: And it's on the president's desk. You then have Pam Bondi, 19 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 1: who has stated that she's going to follow the law. 20 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 1: When you say own the law from the County General. 21 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:32,839 Speaker 1: Do you mean that you will provide all the files 22 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 1: by thirty days? 23 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:38,600 Speaker 2: We will follow the law. The law passed both chambers 24 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:41,840 Speaker 2: last evening. It has not yet been signed, but we 25 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 2: will continue to follow the law again while protecting victims 26 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 2: but also providing maximum transparency. 27 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 1: Well, does that mean you're going to now redact the 28 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: names of victims? Because I don't know if the legislation 29 00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 1: states it that way. Maybe she's got the power to 30 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 1: do so. Does that mean things won't get released? Well, 31 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 1: if something is under current investigation by the DOJ, for 32 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 1: example the FBI, as Cash Mattel stands behind her, the 33 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 1: director of the FBI, that could mean that they don't 34 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 1: release those things, which of course is going to lead 35 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 1: to more to see. Look what you're hiding and your 36 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:23,239 Speaker 1: handpicked Justice Department is hiding this and all the kind 37 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 1: of nonsense. But after that all took place, there was 38 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 1: a vote to censure Stacey Plaskett. Stacey Plasket is the 39 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 1: delegate from the US Virgin Islands, so not a voting member, 40 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:48,800 Speaker 1: not a representative, but she does represent the Virgin Islands 41 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,360 Speaker 1: and lobbies and their interests, and she does sit on 42 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 1: committees and all that jazz. In a hearing in twenty 43 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 1: nineteen where Michael Cohen, President Trump's fixer, a guy who 44 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:06,799 Speaker 1: the minute you saw him you knew he was gonna flip. 45 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 1: That guy was born to play the part of the 46 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: squealer in any mob film ever made. Michael Cohen is testifying, 47 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 1: and Stacy Plaskett, who's on the committee, is getting text 48 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 1: messages ask about this, and ask about that, and check 49 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: in on the other. Those text messages were coming from 50 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein, this child, sex trafficker, this liar, this fraud. 51 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 1: He is texting Stacy Plaskett, and Stacy Plaskett is asking questions, Wait, 52 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 1: what does that mean? Oh? So should I ask it 53 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 1: like this? Things like that she took direction from this 54 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: pedophile sex trafficker. The House is rightfully disgusted and wanted 55 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:09,559 Speaker 1: to center her for doing so. Congressman Jamie Raskin, Democrat 56 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:19,839 Speaker 1: from Maryland, who has absolutely no floor, said, I don't 57 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 1: know what the big deal is. What does it matter. 58 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,040 Speaker 1: There's no rules against someone taking a phone call in 59 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:29,479 Speaker 1: the middle of a hearing. And besides, Jeffrey Epstein was 60 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 1: one of her constituents. Jeffrey Epstein owned a home in 61 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 1: the Virgin Islands. It doesn't make him a constituent. And 62 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 1: that's how you're going to defend getting text messages from 63 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: this child sex trafficking pedophile low life. You know what, 64 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 1: Dear Lord Jamie Raskin a great thing to note here. 65 00:04:54,240 --> 00:05:00,120 Speaker 1: Democrats will do anything to protect other Democrats. Republicans won't 66 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 1: to redistrict. Democrats will excuse engaging a relationship with a 67 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 1: sex trafficker. But how dare Republicans engage in a legal, 68 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:17,039 Speaker 1: lawful political process to which no children are harmed? I 69 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 1: swear to you. If Republicans don't learn, they're gonna keep 70 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 1: getting treated like this. So they engage a vote to 71 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 1: censure Stacy Plasket and it fails. Well, of course it failed, right, 72 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 1: this is the standard Republican thing. They don't center Iljano 73 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:47,160 Speaker 1: mar They don't censure uh Stacey Plasket. What in the 74 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:51,839 Speaker 1: world is this all about? Well, it turns out what 75 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: this is all about is a representative by the name 76 00:05:56,360 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 1: of Corey Mills. Mills, it's a congressman from Florida, and Katkamick, 77 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: who I adore, Anna, Paulina Luna, both of Florida, Nancy 78 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 1: Mace have all come out to say this censure failed 79 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 1: because of Representative Corey Mills, and you're like, wait, I 80 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 1: don't understand. How in the world does a censure fail 81 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 1: because of Representative Corey Mills. This was the scene after 82 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 1: the vote that did not censure Stacy plaskin. The House 83 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:48,600 Speaker 1: is still in session. 84 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 3: The members are milling about and Representative Anna Paulina Luna 85 00:06:55,160 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 3: takes to the microphone to ask a question, give it 86 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 3: a second. 87 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:08,720 Speaker 1: The hell will be in order? For what purpose does 88 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 1: a generated in Florida sake recognition? 89 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 4: I have a parliamentary inquiry. 90 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 1: The generator in Florida will state her inquiry. 91 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 4: I was wondering if the Speaker of the House of 92 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 4: Representatives can explain why leadership on both sides, both Democrat 93 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:24,440 Speaker 4: and Republican, are cutting back in deals to cover up 94 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 4: public corruption and the House of Representatives from both Republican 95 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 4: and Democrat members of. 96 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: Congress okay, first, a little bit of backstory actually going 97 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:40,120 Speaker 1: with another party. There was a Democratic member who this 98 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 1: week called out another Democratic member for basically manipulating the 99 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 1: election for a successor. There's a Congressman of Illinois named 100 00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 1: Heyesu's Chewie Garcia who is not for reelection, and what 101 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: Garcia did was basically manipulate members in Illinois or the 102 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 1: people in Illinois to ensure that his chief of staff 103 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 1: would be able to get his seat. And Representative Perez 104 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 1: out of Washington said this isn't right and offered a 105 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 1: resolution to rebuke Garcia, and the House voted for the 106 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 1: measure two thirty six to one eighty six. So that happened. 107 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:39,680 Speaker 1: That got very little fanfare. So I guess that the 108 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: House has said, you know what, We're tired of putting 109 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 1: up with cramp. This is a very interesting development, could 110 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 1: get very interesting for all of us. This leads to 111 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 1: Representative Corey Mills. Corey Mills, according to Anna Paulina Luna, 112 00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 1: accrying a cat camick according to Nancy Mace, according to 113 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 1: Lauren Bobert, is guilty of stolen valor that Corey Mills 114 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 1: has misrepresented either his military service or medals commendations, all 115 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 1: sorts of things. That the reason that ilhan O mar 116 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 1: has not been censured is that if she were, Democrats 117 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 1: would respond by censuring Corey Mills, and the Republican Party 118 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,679 Speaker 1: is trying to protect him, and the word on the 119 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 1: street is that they did not move forward with the 120 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 1: censure of Stacy Plaskett, who was texting with a pedophile, 121 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:49,080 Speaker 1: because doing so would lead to the censure of Corey Mills, 122 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 1: and they need to hold on to the seat. Democrats 123 00:09:52,720 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 1: are going after his seat in a hard way. That 124 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 1: is insane. Not what Anna Pauline a Luna did, but 125 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 1: the idea that this could have happened, that Republicans would 126 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 1: not have moved forward because they're trying to protect Corey Mills. 127 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 1: So now you have Representative Mace, who is going to 128 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:28,680 Speaker 1: make the Republicans if she gets it done through a resolution, 129 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 1: cent your Corey Mills. Now this is a story of 130 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 1: so we couldn't center Herbert were sent to our own 131 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 1: people a much bigger conversation I never served. I never 132 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 1: wore the uniform except once, but it was a little 133 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 1: bit of role play playing and my safe word was grenade. 134 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 1: I don't know how a person who has worn the 135 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 1: uniform deals with stolen valor. Stolen valor is when you 136 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 1: know some people wear the uniform. They make it up. 137 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 1: They're lying. They want the attention, they want the parking spot, 138 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 1: they want the free meal. It's really gross, but I'll 139 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,120 Speaker 1: never truly be able to understand how somebody who has 140 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 1: worn the uniform feels about somebody who never went through 141 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 1: it like they did lying about it. Let's be clear, 142 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 1: Tim Walls lied about a whole host of things, including 143 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:39,079 Speaker 1: what he did with his service. It was disgusting and despicable. 144 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 1: The governor of Minnesota, the former vice presidential candidate. He 145 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:49,199 Speaker 1: deserved to lose. But I don't know if I want 146 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 1: a guy who's involved with stolen valor in the House 147 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 1: of Representatives. The only thing George Santos did was steal 148 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 1: an identity, maybe a couple bucks. I don't want him 149 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 1: in the House either. But that's not the story you 150 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 1: telling me. We're cutting deals to protect this. You want 151 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 1: to argue that these women are just getting what emotional well, 152 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 1: I can't wait to see you have the argument with 153 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:21,680 Speaker 1: them on that. Just give me a front row seat 154 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 1: if you don't mind to not censure Stacy Plaskett is despicable. 155 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 1: To not do it to spare another member is insane. 156 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:43,839 Speaker 1: She needs to be censured to protect a guy regarding 157 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 1: stolen valor. As Mace said, quote, I have the general 158 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 1: who recommended him quote unquote for the Bronze Star on record, 159 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,199 Speaker 1: saying he never wrote it, never read it, and never 160 00:12:54,280 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 1: personally signed it. I don't know about you, but this 161 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:05,360 Speaker 1: could be the start of something amazing, maybe a better house. 162 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 1: But you can't leave democrats just going, oh, we're all perfect, 163 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:15,079 Speaker 1: that's ag won't hunt. I'm Tony Katz, and this is 164 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:16,080 Speaker 1: Tony Katz Today
