1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,000
Speaker 1: So we're waiting on the White House Press briefing, and

2
00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:08,080
Speaker 1: as we're waiting, I come across this from the Speaker,

3
00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:11,119
Speaker 1: Mike Johnson regarding the outright lies of the political left

4
00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:14,800
Speaker 1: regarding the Epstein files and this legislation that Democrats wanted

5
00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:18,320
Speaker 1: to get through and now basically accusing of people like

6
00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 1: Mike Johnson of protecting pedophiles. Democrats could have released anything

7
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:26,880
Speaker 1: from the Epstein files in the past.

8
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 2: Four years, and they didn't do it.

9
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:31,680
Speaker 1: They're only interested now because Trump is like, why do

10
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:34,720
Speaker 1: we care about this? Remember Trump was wrong on that one.

11
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:37,599
Speaker 1: Democrats have nothing else to do. So it's this call

12
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:41,880
Speaker 1: people pedal files. While they're the party that supports men

13
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:45,880
Speaker 1: being in women's locker rooms, boys being able to pretend

14
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:49,120
Speaker 1: that they're girls, and then allowing children to mutilate their

15
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:51,240
Speaker 1: bodies to pretend that there's something else.

16
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:58,960
Speaker 2: That's the Team Jeffries party. That's fun. Tony Katz, Tony

17
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 2: Kats today, good to be with you. What did the

18
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 2: speaker have to say?

19
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,840
Speaker 3: False headline in the New York Times, and the headline

20
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:08,120
Speaker 3: was terribly misleading. It said House Republicans are quote adjourneying

21
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:12,360
Speaker 3: until September to avoid a vote on releasing Epstein materials.

22
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:14,319
Speaker 3: I just want you to know, and everybody here knows

23
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 3: that's an outright lie. It's not true, and they were

24
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,560
Speaker 3: forced to modify their headline and update it today. The

25
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 3: reason is we all know that's the initial lie travels

26
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 3: much faster than the truth, and so we're making sure

27
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 3: that people know what is actually going on here. I

28
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,040
Speaker 3: think every single one of your publications have known that.

29
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 3: The published schedule of Congress was decided in December of

30
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,800
Speaker 3: twenty twenty four, and it's been published ever since. We

31
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 3: are fulfilling the calendar. We're working, we'll be working tomorrow.

32
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 3: There've been votes every day this week. We have nine

33
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 3: or ten committees working through markups this week, many tomorrow.

34
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 3: But Congress is doing its work. No one is adjourneying early.

35
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 3: We have an August district work period that is very

36
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 3: important to the function of Congress. That has been recognized

37
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 3: for all of memory of this institution, and that is

38
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 3: what everyone will be doing. Times was forced to change

39
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 3: the headline because it was completely false. No one in

40
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 3: Congress is blocking Epstein documents. No one in Congress is

41
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 3: doing that.

42
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: Now before we continue here, that's a lot that just

43
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 1: got stated by the speaker. We're not a journey Oh,

44
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 1: the headlines were clear, you're a journeying. News outlets have

45
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 1: had to redo their headlines because they've absolutely got it wrong.

46
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 1: Well listen, all they did was say what do you

47
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 1: want us to say, Hakim? And they were like, Hakim

48
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 1: Gezaid will say this. And they said, yes, sir, right away, sir,

49
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 1: whatever you want, sir. By the way, you look great, sir,

50
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 1: And and that was it. Remember this is what they do.

51
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 2: Trust in New York Times. Hell no, But now let's

52
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:45,360
Speaker 2: get into.

53
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 3: This part what we were doing here. Republicans are preventing

54
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 3: Democrats from making a mockery of the Rules Committee process

55
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,399
Speaker 3: because we refuse to engage in their political charade. That

56
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,520
Speaker 3: is what is happening, and nothing more. The way Democrats

57
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 3: are trying to weaponize this issue is absolutely aless. And

58
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 3: I just want to say this. Democrats said nothing and

59
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:07,800
Speaker 3: did nothing, absolutely nothing about bringing transparency for the entire

60
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,360
Speaker 3: four years of the Biden presidency. But now all of

61
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,920
Speaker 3: a sudden, they want the American people to believe that

62
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 3: they actually care.

63
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:19,639
Speaker 2: What did we what do we just say booboo?

64
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:29,239
Speaker 1: What did we just say, it's so obvious, it's so clear,

65
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,519
Speaker 1: it's so transparent, it is so understood by all of us.

66
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 1: We knew it immediately, We knew the answer immediately. Of

67
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 1: course they don't care. Kim Jeffries doesn't give a damn

68
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 1: about who got abused on Epstein Island.

69
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 2: Neither does Amy Klobuchar.

70
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 1: Neither does Representative Akasi Cortes or Iona Presley.

71
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 2: Aana Pressley went on.

72
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 1: A bender day talking about how important DEI is, So

73
00:03:55,360 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 1: you know they're they're focused on the things that move America.

74
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 2: But we called this one and let the speaker cook.

75
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 3: Their actions belie their words. We will not be lectured

76
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 3: on transparency by the same party that orchestrated one of

77
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 3: the most shameless, dangerous political cover ups in the history

78
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 3: of the United States, and that was President Biden's obvious

79
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 3: mental decline. House Republicans stand for maximum transparency and truth.

80
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:29,160
Speaker 3: We always have and we always will. We're in lockstep

81
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:30,919
Speaker 3: with President Trump and his administration.

82
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,160
Speaker 2: Can I just say I love that line.

83
00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 3: Their actions belie their words. We will not be lectured

84
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,280
Speaker 3: on transparency by the same party that orchestrated one of

85
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,839
Speaker 3: the most shameless, dangerous political cover ups in the history

86
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,799
Speaker 3: of the United States, and that was President Biden's obvious

87
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 3: mental decline.

88
00:04:50,800 --> 00:05:08,359
Speaker 4: Yes, yes, oh, go ahead, Oh so good, so so good?

89
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:13,280
Speaker 1: Is that line from Mike Johnson right there. I didn't

90
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 1: even got into that part. That is that is true,

91
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 1: and they are all guilty. Everybody in the cabinet, including

92
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 1: the smarmy Pete Buddha judge, the never gonna be president

93
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 1: won't be governor of California either. Kamala Harris, by the way,

94
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 1: her new restaurant word salad fantastic.

95
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 2: Oh, just terrific. You should try the what did she say? Greek?

96
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,840
Speaker 1: It's so good, It is so good, you don't even

97
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:42,920
Speaker 1: have to get the anchovies.

98
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:46,840
Speaker 2: That's how good that one is. Continue, Speaker Johnson. House.

99
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 3: Republicans stand for maximum transparency and truth. We always have

100
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 3: and we always will. We're in lockstep with President Trump

101
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 3: and his administration on the issue. We are pushing for

102
00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 3: the release of all credible information to be really east

103
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,840
Speaker 3: with regard to the Epstein matter. I would note also

104
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:07,799
Speaker 3: that there aren't real issues legal issues with the Khana resolution.

105
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,839
Speaker 3: With the Massy resolution, Kanas has no protection whatsoever for

106
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 3: the victims of these horrible unspeakable sex crimes and Massi's

107
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 3: doesn't go far enough.

108
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,600
Speaker 1: So he's talking about resolutions or a legislation that was

109
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:26,159
Speaker 1: put up by Rokahanna, Democrat from California and Thomas Massey,

110
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 1: Republican from Kentucky. And I will say this about Rokahanna.

111
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 1: We disagree about a great number of politics. He's always

112
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 1: been a guy who is a who favors free speech

113
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 1: and is aggressive about it and protecting of Republicans about it.

114
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 1: And I'm willing to believe in Rokahanna that while I

115
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:53,160
Speaker 1: think that his political basis is wrong, that at times

116
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 1: his motivation is legit. One of the very few people

117
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,080
Speaker 1: on the left side of the AIE I say that

118
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:06,280
Speaker 1: about Thomas Massey. I clearly an anti Israel guy, clearly

119
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 1: has got a serious issue there and it's ever growing.

120
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,680
Speaker 1: But I think is true when he talks about spending,

121
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 1: I think that he's legitming on this subject.

122
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:18,600
Speaker 2: I'm willing to say that he wants.

123
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 1: The information, not letting any of the other issues he has,

124
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 1: whether with Trump or with the Republican Party, even though

125
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 1: he's a Republican, you know those Notwithstanding, there there are

126
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 1: absolutely issues with the data that gets released. And that's

127
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 1: why I thought it was important when Trump said to

128
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 1: Pam Bondy, released this with the court's approval, and that's

129
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:44,280
Speaker 1: what indeed we're waiting on. I still want the information.

130
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 1: And you'll note that so to Speaker Johnson. So the

131
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 1: argument that this is all coming from the so called

132
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 1: influencers or radio hosts and that isn't coming from a

133
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 1: lot of different places is bunk. It's coming from a

134
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 1: lot of different places on the political right, never mind

135
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 1: the political left, which is all political. This is about

136
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:16,560
Speaker 1: wanting the data, and it is clear that we are

137
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 1: not alone in this want. There are many others who

138
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 1: want this, and I'm.

139
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 2: Thankful for that.

140
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 1: But there is no doubt what Speaker Johnson said is

141
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 1: one thousand percent accurate.

142
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:35,320
Speaker 2: One thousand percent.

143
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,440
Speaker 1: There is nothing that the Democratic Party is discussing that

144
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 1: should be taken as serious because it is not all

145
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:47,720
Speaker 1: politics all the time.

146
00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 2: So I loved that.

147
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:55,720
Speaker 1: From Mike Johnson, who I have to assume if Republicans

148
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 1: hold in twenty twenty six, he'll be the speaker again.

149
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,319
Speaker 1: I think he learned early to say, you know what,

150
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 1: Trump's leading this party, and we're going to go along

151
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 1: with this, or we're gonna push this, We're going to

152
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 1: have his backing and go forward. He has been able

153
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:15,960
Speaker 1: to in some of these places step out and have

154
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 1: his own voice. I think that in the main he's

155
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:26,440
Speaker 1: been this accidental speaker. He's been impressive. What will be

156
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:31,720
Speaker 1: the real telltale is what is the money raised? Where

157
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:36,200
