It's 2 00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:36,640 Speaker 1: Tony Cats today. 3 00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:44,680 Speaker 2: We're gonna sell Saudi Arabia at thirty five strike fighters. 4 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:45,280 Speaker 3: Are we? 5 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 2: Are we out of our minds? I mean, are we. 6 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:56,320 Speaker 4: Completely insane? Maybe not? 7 00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:03,920 Speaker 2: Maybe Every resentment I have for September eleventh is still 8 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,680 Speaker 2: holding true, is still valuable, is still important. 9 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 4: But we didn't punish Saudi Arabia the way we needed to. 10 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:13,720 Speaker 2: And we live in this world right now, and in 11 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 2: this world right now, Saudi Arabia is your friend and 12 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 2: not your enemy. 13 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 4: Tony Kas Tony Caax today, good to be with you. 14 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 2: Of course, we've had a relationship with Saudi Arabia for years. 15 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 2: And yes, that is me saying that George W. Bush 16 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 2: in no way, shape or form handled Saudi Arabia the 17 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:33,720 Speaker 2: way he should have. The violence I would have unleashed 18 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 2: cannot be fully explained here. That said, I have also stayed, 19 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 2: and I've stated this publicly, that I would have given 20 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 2: the Saudis the option to pick seventeen members. 21 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 4: Of the royal family to execute as they see fit, 22 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:48,280 Speaker 4: but they better. 23 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 2: Do it live and in front of a video camera 24 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 2: so everyone can see what happens. We can do it, 25 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 2: but we're going to actually walk in and do it, 26 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 2: or you can do it. No, no, don't just send 27 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 2: us a couple of people are going to spend their 28 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 2: lives in a cushy jail. No, no, no, I would 29 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 2: not have been that kind. And you could say to me, 30 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 2: my gosh, Tony, that is violent. I am not someone 31 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,679 Speaker 2: who forgets three thousand of my fellow Americans who were slaughtered. 32 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 4: I have not engaged any level of forgiveness. 33 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 2: I do, however, live in the real world, and the 34 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 2: real world tells me that if you can get Saudi 35 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:29,120 Speaker 2: Arabia further on your side and engage some moves that 36 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 2: you're trying to engage, you can change the entire game 37 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 2: in the Middle East and not only further isolate Iran, 38 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 2: but totally disembowel them. You say to me, Tony, if 39 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 2: I thought you were violent before, now we're talking about disemboweling. Yeah. Yeah, 40 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 2: I'm interested in my enemies losing. And Iran is the enemy. 41 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:02,079 Speaker 2: There's no question, there's no debate. Iran is the enemy, 42 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 2: which is to say them, allays, the hardliners, the clerics, 43 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 2: the Ayahtola, the enemy of all free and thinking people. 44 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 2: You can get Saudi Arabia to come to the table, 45 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 2: you can get Saudi Arabia to agree to the Abraham Accords, Well, 46 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 2: that might be worth selling them some F thirty five 47 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 2: strike fighters. And the F thirty five is no joke. 48 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:31,359 Speaker 2: It's a serious piece of hardware. It is an unbelievable instrument. 49 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 2: But you have Saudi Arabia pledging what is it, six 50 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 2: hundred billion dollars worth of investment into. 51 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 4: The US, You have. 52 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 2: The UH, you have the possibility of, indeed, the Abraham Accords. 53 00:03:56,320 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 2: Well that kids, that's everything you might want to actually 54 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 2: make that happen. So President Trump is getting ready to 55 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 2: meet with Muhammed Ben Solomon. We're going to cover that. 56 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 2: At the same time, the House of Representatives is getting 57 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 2: ready to vote on Epstein files, and they're getting ready 58 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 2: to vote on this discharge petition. Republicans are not fans, 59 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 2: not fans at all of this. 60 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 4: They do not want the discharge petition. 61 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 2: Happening at all. 62 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 4: What they want is a different vote. 63 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 2: The discharge petition is a system utilized by which someone 64 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:10,160 Speaker 2: can bring legislation to the floor and absolutely do an 65 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:17,159 Speaker 2: end around of the standard system. If you can do 66 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 2: an end around of the system. What you can do 67 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 2: then is bring anything you want for a vote right there. 68 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 2: You don't have to go through committees, you don't have 69 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,919 Speaker 2: to do a whole host of things. You could just 70 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 2: go right to it. The problem with this discharge petition, 71 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 2: as Speaker Johnson explains it, and I'll share that with you, 72 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 2: is that it makes no. 73 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 4: Distinguishing maneuvers. 74 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 2: It makes no effort, I should say, better word, to 75 00:05:54,960 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 2: remove or redact the names of victims. For example, So 76 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,039 Speaker 2: there are plenty of women who have admitted that Jeffrey Epstein, 77 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 2: the financiers, sexually abused them. 78 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 4: This island the trafficking. 79 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,279 Speaker 2: Of these young women, I mean under the age of 80 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 2: eighteen women to men of power and influence, and they 81 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 2: have come out and said, this happened to me, and 82 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,679 Speaker 2: I don't want to happen to anybody else. So let's 83 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:22,839 Speaker 2: release these files and let's find who did this, and 84 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:25,160 Speaker 2: we know who did this, and let's make sure people 85 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 2: go to jail. I'm all in favor of that, but 86 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:32,159 Speaker 2: there could very well be some women who have no 87 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 2: interest in being outed. This discharge petition does not protect them, 88 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:46,279 Speaker 2: doesn't protect them. It could release names of people who 89 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 2: have done nothing wrong. Being listed in the files does 90 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 2: not mean you were involved with young women or involved. 91 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:53,919 Speaker 4: In sex trafficking. 92 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,360 Speaker 2: Jeffrey Epstein had a lot of people, in a lot 93 00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 2: of connections in a lot of places. You have Byron 94 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 2: York writing over there at the Washington Examiner about how 95 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,160 Speaker 2: a group was putting in there about the Epstein files. 96 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 2: Leave aside for a moment. Donald Trump's had vomited in 97 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 2: any of this. His name appears more than sixteen hundred 98 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 2: times in the email release, according to a Wall Street 99 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 2: Journal review, and we all know how hard he's fighting 100 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 2: to keep the files from the Department of Justice investigation 101 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 2: from being released. Well that's all changed because he's now 102 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 2: following what Congress wants. 103 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 4: But as Byron York notes. 104 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 2: It's an interesting piece, but it has to include the 105 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 2: leave aside paragraph below, because Trump is not a participant 106 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 2: in the recently released twenty thousand plus Epstein documents. Trump 107 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 2: says not a word, writes, not a single email or text, 108 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 2: takes part in no conversation, and he's in the Epstein 109 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 2: files because Jeffrey Epstein can't stop talking about him. So 110 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 2: that's a completely different mathematics. The idea that Epstein may 111 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 2: mention him is not proof of President Trump doing anything wrong. 112 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 2: And rational people need to read these things, and so agreed, 113 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 2: we need to see these things. But what other names 114 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 2: are in there? What other names are in there? Where 115 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, we're gonna have people guilty by association. 116 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 2: That's gross stuff. We're gonna take people, Well, your name's 117 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:35,079 Speaker 2: in there, so I guess you're guilty. 118 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 4: That's horrifying. Why don't we take the time because. 119 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 2: I want them released. I'm not going back on my 120 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:49,679 Speaker 2: own words. Why don't we take the time to ensure 121 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:56,840 Speaker 2: that the names are proper and accurate in there? If 122 00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 2: we were to simply not engage his discharge petition, but 123 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 2: normal rational people, we could get there. The discharge petition 124 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 2: is a mistake. That's the issue. That's the fundamental flaw 125 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:17,560 Speaker 2: right there. So we've got these two things we're watching. 126 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:22,679 Speaker 2: We're watching the House of Representatives on the discharge petition. 127 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 2: We are watching for President Trump and Mohammed ben Sulman 128 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:34,559 Speaker 2: to speak about what could be very likely a total 129 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:40,720 Speaker 2: realignment of the Middle East. It's a busy day. I'm 130 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 2: Tony Kats. This is Tony Kats today. Why are there 131 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:47,679 Speaker 2: Americans in Haiti. I know, I really should say that 132 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 2: better Americans could be anywhere they choose to be, and 133 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:56,079 Speaker 2: any nation that wants to interfere with an American walking 134 00:09:56,120 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 2: down the street should be made to understand the term 135 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 2: and packs americanas like it used to be Pas Tromanas. 136 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,679 Speaker 2: I am a Roman citizen and they should feel our wrath. 137 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 2: I am in a mood today, Tony Kats, Tony Kats today, 138 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 2: what do you do? And everybody find everything over there 139 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 2: at Tony kats dot com. The live stream is happening, 140 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,319 Speaker 2: YouTube dot com, slash Tony CAATs. You should come and 141 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 2: be a part of that right away, if not sooner. 142 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 2: But there are places that are dangerous to be. If 143 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,320 Speaker 2: you want to be an American citizen in North Korea, 144 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 2: you're putting your life in your hands. 145 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 4: I would argue the same thing is. 146 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 2: True with Russia, and I would argue the same thing 147 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 2: is true in Mexico City. My wife is very keen 148 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,560 Speaker 2: on seeing some of the ruins in Mexico, and I 149 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 2: have constantly told her by I mean, I love you 150 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:50,200 Speaker 2: more than air. I will miss you, but I'm not 151 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 2: going because someone needs to stand back and tell your 152 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:59,559 Speaker 2: story I have no faith none. There are threats from 153 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 2: Haitian gangs, and the threats are prompting the United Nations 154 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 2: and foreign embassies to stay off the streets. Import of Prince, 155 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 2: that's the capital. If the gangs are in charge, what 156 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 2: are we doing? Why are we there? What's the point? 157 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 2: What's the value? What's the win? What do we get? 158 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 2: What are we trying to accomplish? If the gangs are 159 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 2: there controlling the situation, controlling the movement of American staff 160 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:50,839 Speaker 2: who are trying to be helpful, what's the point? By 161 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 2: the way, the gang leader is known as Barbecue. I 162 00:11:55,600 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 2: swear to you that's what he's known by. You should 163 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 2: stay at home on November seventeenth, and so this says yesterday, 164 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:06,839 Speaker 2: so you won't be a victim. Those who do not 165 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 2: need to go, do not go out into the streets. 166 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 2: Leave them to the Haitian gang that was designated by 167 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 2: the US State Department as a specially Designated Global Terrorists 168 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 2: and Foreign Terrorist Organization back in May. There might be 169 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 2: some inclination there to say, hey, why don't we go 170 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 2: show these Haitians who's in charge. 171 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 4: The question I would immediately ask. 172 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 5: Is why, why in the world should we be there. 173 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 2: What's the point If the Haitians don't want it, why 174 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:56,840 Speaker 2: should we force it upon them? Now, you say to me, Tony, 175 00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 2: and the Haitians may very well want to lead a 176 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 2: better life. 177 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 4: Maybe that's true. 178 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 2: Maybe I'm being a little to I don't know what's 179 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 2: the proper word. I'm not being committal enough to it. 180 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:16,080 Speaker 2: Maybe we have a responsibility in our hemisphere to put 181 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 2: an end to madness like the gangs that have ruled Haiti, 182 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 2: the corruption that has ruled Haiti. And I'm not just 183 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 2: talking about the Clintons. Maybe we have a responsibility to this. 184 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 2: Maybe the Haitians have a responsibility to this. You know, 185 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 2: I feel the same way about Ukraine. I would never 186 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 2: have allowed a single able bodied Ukrainian to come. 187 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 4: To the United States. 188 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 2: You don't get to claim asylum here, No, no, no, 189 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 2: You go back and you fight for your country. What 190 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 2: the hell is this? What kind of nonsense? You fight 191 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 2: for your country? And this whole scandal that has erupted 192 00:13:54,200 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 2: in Ukraine and the bribery and the embezzlement and Trump 193 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 2: are the questions I'm asking of of Vladimir's Lenski. How 194 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:07,840 Speaker 2: much money did you take? Show me every bank account 195 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,840 Speaker 2: or it all stops. And you see those people, those 196 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 2: people who engage the embezzlement, Yeah, they're gonna have to 197 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 2: go to jail or have an accident. Sorry, you can't 198 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 2: steal from us and then be able to enjoy that 199 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 2: you steal from us. You gotta go. And again you 200 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 2: say to me, Tony, what's with you? Are you really 201 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 2: this violent? I'd reject the idea that I'm even violent. 202 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 2: I didn't start by saying it. But when you steal 203 00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:37,280 Speaker 2: from American citizens who have been giving you out of 204 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 2: the kindness of their heart, and of course, through our government, 205 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 2: their dollars, you better be really good with the dollars. 206 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 2: Because if you steal the dollars, well, hey, these things 207 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 2: do happen. And that seems like a pretty steep flight 208 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 2: of stairs that you're about to fall down. Oh well, 209 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 2: I'm wrong. Does somebody want to do you actually want 210 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 2: to say that that's an incorrect statement that people who 211 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:12,160 Speaker 2: steal should somehow be able to get away with it. 212 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:15,240 Speaker 2: I mean, we could just throw them in jail if 213 00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 2: you want to do that. Sure, if you want to 214 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 2: be boring, do we want to be the people who 215 00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 2: deal with these gangs in Haiti. I put forth to 216 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 2: you that it is horrible that Haiti is so awful, 217 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 2: and we should be clear that Haiti is awful as 218 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 2: a matter of just. 219 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 4: Sheer culture and how one runs a nation. 220 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 2: And that's what I mean by culture in this case, 221 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 2: terrible and awful. Mexico it seems, would like to clean 222 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 2: itself up. Mexico it seems is sick and tired of 223 00:15:55,120 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 2: all the corruption. Maybe that's what this protest was, what 224 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 2: they're calling the gen Z protest. I am not one 225 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 2: hundred percent sure if it was all gen zs, but 226 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 2: maybe they've had enough of the cartels and the political 227 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:15,600 Speaker 2: violence and candidates being assassinated. Maybe they don't think they 228 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:20,000 Speaker 2: should be commonplace. Maybe they think Mexico should be better. 229 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 2: And I am hoping there is a turn towards that. 230 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 2: And that's going to mean, of course, that the cartels 231 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 2: get more violent, and I think we need to get 232 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 2: more violent with the cartels, which takes us to the 233 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 2: Venezuela conversation. 234 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 4: They are right now gearing up for America to fight. 235 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 2: You have got the. 236 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 4: Woman who won the Nobel Prize instead of Trump. 237 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 2: She is very very. 238 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 4: Open about this and very clear about this. 239 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 2: Her name is Macada, Maria Karina Mikado and Jorge Machado 240 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 2: m a chad O. 241 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 4: I think it's Mikado. I think it's how I pronounce it. 242 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:01,840 Speaker 2: Anyway, if I'm wrong, for me, and she is fully 243 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 2: aware that the USS gerald Ford is the largest aircraft 244 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 2: carrier we have in the fleet, and it is there 245 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:11,199 Speaker 2: in the Caribbean, right there off the Venezuela northern coastline, 246 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:16,639 Speaker 2: and we have other assets joining it, and we have 247 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 2: created operations Southern Spear. And she is saying that Venezuela 248 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 2: should absolutely be ready, the people should be ready because 249 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:28,919 Speaker 2: an attack is imminent. Now, if you're going to engage 250 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 2: an attack on Venezuela, you're going to need a declaration 251 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 2: of war. Mister President, and Congress is right about this, 252 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:36,439 Speaker 2: and I don't care if anybody likes it. He's going 253 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 2: to have to do what he has to do, and 254 00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 2: he has to let people know he has to go 255 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 2: to Congress and ask for it. Because the idea of 256 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 2: a defense, which is to say we have been struck, 257 00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:52,199 Speaker 2: so we are going to strike back, or we have 258 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 2: evidence of an attack so therefore we strike, is different 259 00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,199 Speaker 2: than a concerted war effort against the group you have 260 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 2: designated as ARCO terrorists. 261 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 4: You're going to need to make a declaration somehow. 262 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:14,680 Speaker 2: But if the Venezuelans are gearing up and getting ready 263 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 2: and they know that this is coming, well I'm curious 264 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:21,399 Speaker 2: as to what actually is going to come. Do we 265 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 2: need to engage an assault, an attack on Venezuela. Well, 266 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:29,119 Speaker 2: if you want to stop the drug running, maybe, But 267 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,240 Speaker 2: if that's the case, don't you need to engage an 268 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 2: attack on the cartels And wouldn't that mean a military 269 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 2: move on Mexico. My gosh, Tony, are you talking about 270 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 2: engaging on two fronts? First of all, it's Mexico and Venezuela. 271 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:46,920 Speaker 2: I don't even think together they equal one front. Secondly, 272 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 2: I'm not saying that you have to declare war on Mexico. 273 00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 2: I'm saying that Mexico should welcome us in and say 274 00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:58,639 Speaker 2: take them out, and we should at the very least 275 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 2: take the first ten miles okay, maybe just five miles 276 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 2: of Mexico and say nobody lives here anymore. 277 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 4: This is a DMZ. 278 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 2: It's not what I want. 279 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:10,200 Speaker 4: It's not what I want, but. 280 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 2: The cartels have made it impossible. If we're going to 281 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:16,399 Speaker 2: go after the Narco terrorists Venezuela. I don't understand why 282 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,920 Speaker 2: it's not the same type of attack on those in 283 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 2: the cartels as for Haiti. Well, I think we should 284 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 2: punch barbecue in the face, possibly with very large missiles, 285 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,239 Speaker 2: for trying to tell Americans don't walk outside and make 286 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:32,160 Speaker 2: sure people have food. 287 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:37,159 Speaker 4: Packs. Americanas kitten, this is Tony Kats today. 288 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,639 Speaker 6: Never been in a position like this, and it really 289 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 6: is because of the fact that we use caraffs to 290 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 6: bring all this money in and you're going to see 291 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 6: the results in a year when these plans start to 292 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 6: open up. We have more plants under construction now than 293 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:55,480 Speaker 6: at any time in the history of our country. 294 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 2: And as the President of the United States, Donald Trump 295 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 2: in the Oval Office, sitting with the Crown rints of 296 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:04,680 Speaker 2: Saudi Arabia, Ben Solomon me, I'm Tony Katz. The show 297 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 2: is Tony Kats today. Oddly enough, not a crown prince, 298 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 2: but if you'd like to call me one, that would 299 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 2: be weird. The President talking about all the investment coming 300 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:14,639 Speaker 2: to the United States, Saudi Arabia is saying six hundred 301 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:17,639 Speaker 2: billion dollars of investment is coming, talking about how the 302 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 2: investment is going to make America great again, and really 303 00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 2: having the conversation they should have been having all along. 304 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 2: You're going to see the results mean, but you should 305 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:27,879 Speaker 2: be cheering this stuff. 306 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,440 Speaker 4: Now he uses that way to say tariff's work. 307 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:34,680 Speaker 2: But people also need lower coffee prices everybody, and lower 308 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:38,160 Speaker 2: beef prices, and he's now reduced those tarifs to remove 309 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 2: them to try and make those prices lower. But this 310 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:44,360 Speaker 2: is all about selling the Saudis F thirty five strike fighters. 311 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 2: This is about taking investment from Saudi Arabia. And then 312 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 2: this is about the Abraham Accords. Can you get Saudi 313 00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 2: Arabia on board with the Abraham Accords to normalize relations 314 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 2: with the Is, so then. 315 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:05,440 Speaker 4: You can further isolate Iran. This goes along with. 316 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 2: What happened to the UN, but I'll get to that 317 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:07,760 Speaker 2: in a minute. 318 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:12,240 Speaker 6: Years we practiced this attack our predecessors, these were very 319 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 6: young guys.

Why because people understand they're refrigerator. They 407 00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:25,200 Speaker 2: don't understand the intricacies of well, they invested a trillion dollars, 408 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 2: but how do I see any of that? 409 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:28,120 Speaker 4: That's rich people getting rich. 410 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:30,639 Speaker 2: They don't see how it all flows and how it 411 00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:33,360 Speaker 2: betters the nation in Toto and you can't even get 412 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 2: angry with that. 413 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 4: He has to do both. 414 00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:40,160 Speaker 2: But this is a place where he feels very comfortable 415 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:42,359 Speaker 2: and wants to be able to say, look at what 416 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:45,199 Speaker 2: we're bringing in.

He has to be able to make that 420 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 2: conversation sticked. And I think that's for scott essence and 421 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:05,640 Speaker 2: Kevin has had a lot of other folks to get 422 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:06,119 Speaker 2: done us. 423 00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:06,920 Speaker 7: It's great news. 424 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:09,560 Speaker 8: Keep increasing with the present and it'll each time the 425 00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 8: punitill just increasing. 426 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:11,720 Speaker 9: More and more. 427 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:15,920 Speaker 6: Well the opportunity. So we're doing better if if even 428 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 6: if you look back. 429 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:18,720 Speaker 7: Six months ago, I mean and all of a sudden. 430 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 6: You feel even better.

Does anybody have any questions? 432 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:33,080 Speaker 12: Have you approved the export licenses for advanced chips to 433 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:33,960 Speaker 12: Saudi Arabia? 434 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,159 Speaker 9: The export license we don't work in on that. 435 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:38,439 Speaker 6: We're negotiating that right now. Marco, do you want to 436 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 6: talk about that or Scott Well, I. 437 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 7: Mean, that's part of what what may have announcements on 438 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:44,760 Speaker 7: that later today. 439 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 13: But that's what we've been working on. 440 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 12: Is the mechanics by which something like that could be 441 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 12: achieve and it's part of the broader process, part of 442 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:56,240 Speaker 12: this broader engagement, cooperation between our two levels of chips from. 443 00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 7: The Crown Frank to Rohana. 444 00:26:57,840 --> 00:26:58,880 Speaker 9: You're talking about. 445 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:01,720 Speaker 8: A trillion dollars with best the Kingdom continued to do 446 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 8: the oil prices in the mid sixties. We love creating 447 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:08,880 Speaker 8: a fake opportunities to you know, please a miracle. 448 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:11,160 Speaker 2: Real opportunities. 449 00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 8: For example, when you ask about the AI and the chips, SAI. 450 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:18,399 Speaker 7: ABI have a huge amount of you need computing power. 451 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:21,160 Speaker 8: And we're going to spend in the short term fifty 452 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 8: billion dollar by consuming those semiconductors for all our needs 453 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:27,639 Speaker 8: in Saudi Arabia. 454 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 2: So this is a very interesting conversation considering that the 455 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:34,560 Speaker 2: United States bans in Nvidia from sending those chips to China, 456 00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 2: which is absolutely the right move. That you cannot give 457 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:41,400 Speaker 2: them these chips, You cannot give them any advantage. So 458 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 2: the idea of the permits of the permitting is to say, okay, 459 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:47,520 Speaker 2: you can utilize these chips, and it comes with I'm 460 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:49,639 Speaker 2: going to assume a fair amount of restrictions and some 461 00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 2: level of oversight as well as to how these AI 462 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:55,200 Speaker 2: chips are used, and then of course. 463 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:56,879 Speaker 4: What comes out of. 464 00:27:56,760 --> 00:28:01,520 Speaker 2: Them and where are those things? Then go The AI 465 00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:07,680 Speaker 2: conversation so dominates the economic landscape. The problem is without 466 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 2: the AI investment, what investment is really happening. And so 467 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:16,760 Speaker 2: while this matters, and it does, I would encourage the 468 00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:20,720 Speaker 2: President to also be focused on other conversations of investment 469 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:26,040 Speaker 2: that more connect themselves in the every day to American citizens, 470 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 2: because it will make them say, okay, I understand how 471 00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 2: this affects me, on how it impacts me positively, because 472 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 2: the vast majority of us will be like, great, AI, 473 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:38,760 Speaker 2: But I don't know where where. 474 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:39,040 Speaker 4: Is it for me? 475 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 2: Do I get to make one more weird video right 476 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 2: of of you know? 477 00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 4: Of you name it? 478 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:47,959 Speaker 2: You know, one more funny cat video playing the fiddle 479 00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 2: or whatever it is. I don't Did you see the 480 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:51,720 Speaker 2: cat video playing the fiddle? It's very good. I'm a 481 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,600 Speaker 2: violin Maybe I say fiddle because what can I say? 482 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 4: I'm just a Southerner at heart. None of that is true, 483 00:28:57,920 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 4: but I like the word fiddle. 484 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,720 Speaker 2: Back to the President and the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, 485 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 2: Mohamed ben Sma. 486 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:07,640 Speaker 6: Things happened, but he knew nothing about it, and we 487 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:09,440 Speaker 6: can leave it at that.

We're here now today, the end 523 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 2: that's where we're at can't be denied. But the way 524 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:21,120 Speaker 2: of Ben Salmon answered it, it was Osama bin Laden 525 00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:23,760 Speaker 2: who was trying to drive a wedge between Saudi Rabi 526 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:27,320 Speaker 2: and the US and our relation. That's an unbelievably well 527 00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:29,720 Speaker 2: way to word it. I just don't know how true 528 00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 2: that is. So that it was very practiced, there's a 529 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 2: reason he has risen so far in impressing the world. 530 00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:43,680 Speaker 2: I don't know how much I believe it, but as 531 00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:47,280 Speaker 2: a response, it was it was something keep it here. 532 00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 4: I'm Tony Kats. This is Tony Cats today. 533 00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:50,960 Speaker 2: With that work force that. 534 00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:53,760 Speaker 8: We have, we need to use a lot of computing 535 00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:56,520 Speaker 8: power up to the place job in the long term, 536 00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 8: So that's hugely imagine Sadiuabia. I want to link it 537 00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:05,960 Speaker 8: to American private Sicktols. I'm getting the supply from America. 538 00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 8: So there's a lot of opportunities that the area. 539 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:12,280 Speaker 6: And we're also involved in Ai and Shuddi Arabia that 540 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 6: we're working now. 541 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,520 Speaker 2: So that's President Trump and the Crown Prince of Saudi 542 00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 2: Arabia Mohammed Ben Salomon in the Oval Office talking about 543 00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:21,200 Speaker 2: deals that are being made. 544 00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 4: Tony Katz, Tony Katz today, good to. 545 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:27,720 Speaker 2: Be with you find everything going on over at Tony 546 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:33,760 Speaker 2: Katz dot com just because it happened. During the radio break, 547 00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 2: there was a conversation about Israel and the Abraham Accords, 548 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:42,960 Speaker 2: which is really a reset of relations in that most 549 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 2: of these Arab nations would never work with Israel because 550 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 2: you have to solve the Palestinian question. What about the 551 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 2: Palestinians and the Abraham Accords said we'll get to that, 552 00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 2: but can we at least engage some trade and stop 553 00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:54,920 Speaker 2: hating each other so much? And a lot of these 554 00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,480 Speaker 2: nations said, oh, the money would be nice, because they 555 00:32:57,480 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 2: never actually. 556 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:01,720 Speaker 4: Cared about the Palestinians. 557 00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:07,000 Speaker 2: No, nation has, if only because Palestinian is a name given, 558 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 2: not an actual thing. And a lot of these nations 559 00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:13,000 Speaker 2: could have taken these people back at any time and 560 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:16,680 Speaker 2: chose not to. And the leadership of the Palestinians could 561 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 2: have engaged the peace process with Israel numerous times, but 562 00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:22,239 Speaker 2: they wanted Jews dead in israelis dead and it's who 563 00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 2: they are. So the question was about Saudi Arabia joining 564 00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:30,680 Speaker 2: the Abraham Accords. What the Crown Prince said is we 565 00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:33,320 Speaker 2: look forward to signing the Abraham Accords, which was oh, 566 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:38,120 Speaker 2: myle mile my, because that's got to make the Iranians crazy. 567 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:40,480 Speaker 4: Saudi Arabia signs the Abraham. 568 00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:43,160 Speaker 2: Accords, and it's very much any other Midiast nation that 569 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:45,280 Speaker 2: has it, they'll be making a phone call saying, hey, 570 00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:45,880 Speaker 2: I've got a pen. 571 00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 4: Where do you want me to be? Saudi Arabia being 572 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:49,880 Speaker 4: the big dog. 573 00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:53,280 Speaker 2: But then he said, and we look forward to a 574 00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 2: two states. So there's peace for the Israelis and peace 575 00:33:56,920 --> 00:34:01,200 Speaker 2: for the Palestinians. President Trump said, we talked about Onestate, 576 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:03,320 Speaker 2: we talked about Testate, we talked about this, we talked 577 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:05,560 Speaker 2: about that, we talked about your mother, so many things. 578 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 4: Who can remember all the things we said. 579 00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:11,080 Speaker 2: What the Crown Prince said is two state solution, right 580 00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:13,480 Speaker 2: to appease a whole host of people that he has 581 00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:15,880 Speaker 2: to appease back in the Middle East. And what the 582 00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:20,120 Speaker 2: President said is, well, woooh, maybe not a two state solution. 583 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:23,000 Speaker 2: Let's not be silly, because he understands that that's a 584 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 2: non starter with the Israelis. What's going to happen is 585 00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:31,879 Speaker 2: an investment into Gaza that's going to create what did 586 00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:37,319 Speaker 2: he call it, the riviera there that it's going to 587 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:42,399 Speaker 2: create a whole new world, and the Palestinians are going 588 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:45,560 Speaker 2: to be able to have protection of a possibly international force. 589 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,839 Speaker 2: All of these nations, whether Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Egypt, etc. 590 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:53,280 Speaker 2: Are going to have a financial investment in the area, 591 00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:55,239 Speaker 2: and so therefore they're going to to be more app 592 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 2: to protect it. And the UN just accepted that deal 593 00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:02,040 Speaker 2: through their Security Council. They voted for it thirteen to nothing. 594 00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:05,360 Speaker 2: The UN Security First of all, the UN Security Council 595 00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:07,200 Speaker 2: is with you. You should really go back and check 596 00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:11,120 Speaker 2: because they've always been wrong. Secondly, they're following Trump's lead, 597 00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:11,880 Speaker 2: which I'll get to. 598 00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:14,080 Speaker 4: And third that is. 599 00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 2: Not a two state solution that is something very, very different, 600 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:22,040 Speaker 2: and that's going to become more and more apparent because 601 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:24,040 Speaker 2: if it doesn't, well, we've got a whole other issue 602 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:27,960 Speaker 2: at play. But the Crown Prince engage in his way 603 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:32,080 Speaker 2: for his audience. The President moved it back for his audience, 604 00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 2: so we'll have more on this. And the debate is 605 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:42,120 Speaker 2: happening right now regarding the Epstein files, and we have 606 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:45,839 Speaker 2: got that. If you're following the live stream, it's happening there. 607 00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:53,080 Speaker 4: Keep it here. It's Tony Kats Today. 608 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:05,880 Speaker 1: Line from dall Hertband and the Crossroads of America. 609 00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:07,799 Speaker 4: It's Tony Katz Today. 610 00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:16,360 Speaker 14: To achieve true justice for victims. To date, the significant 611 00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:20,600 Speaker 14: information that has come out has come from the Oversight 612 00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:24,840 Speaker 14: and Government Reform Committee as a result of its issuing 613 00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 14: thirteen subpoenas. We've released sixty five thousand pages of documents 614 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:36,560 Speaker 14: from the Department of Justice, the Epstein estate, which was 615 00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:44,840 Speaker 14: not mentioned in the underlying legislation, former US Attorney and others. 616 00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:49,719 Speaker 2: That is Virginia Fox, Republican North Carolina, speaking on the 617 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:52,759 Speaker 2: floor of the Houses. They are debating the release of 618 00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:56,880 Speaker 2: the Epstein files. Happening as we speak. Tony Kaks Tony 619 00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 2: Kax today, good to be with you. This is really 620 00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:02,040 Speaker 2: about a discharge and whether or not this information is 621 00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:06,120 Speaker 2: going to get released with no reactions, which I think 622 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:10,239 Speaker 2: is a mistake and we'll get into. But you have 623 00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 2: on the other side of the aisle Thomas Massey, the 624 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:18,440 Speaker 2: Republican from Kentucky, excoriating for Republicans for not doing this 625 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:23,000 Speaker 2: earlier and how dare you not seat a representative Electrajalva 626 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:26,160 Speaker 2: out of Arizona for forty nine days? Well, with all 627 00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:30,480 Speaker 2: due respect, you understand that none of that mattered. 628 00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:32,719 Speaker 4: You had a shutdown you were dealing. 629 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 2: With, and that's the excuse that the speaker used. Could 630 00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:37,719 Speaker 2: he have sadder, Yeah, he could have satder, but he 631 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:41,000 Speaker 2: chose not to apply pressure to get the shutdown over with. 632 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,120 Speaker 2: And Thomas Massey's words will fall very much on deaf 633 00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:49,480 Speaker 2: ears in that regard. But Massey, Marjorie Taylor Green, Lauren Bobert, 634 00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:53,560 Speaker 2: Nancy Mason, Nancy Masa represented Masa, South Carolina, just spoke 635 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:58,160 Speaker 2: about her own victimization and about these women. They want 636 00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:03,720 Speaker 2: this release already, they want it now, and Republicans absolutely 637 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:07,160 Speaker 2: did not move fast enough. That's my take because we 638 00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:11,840 Speaker 2: here have been saying quite clearly, we want to release 639 00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:17,120 Speaker 2: We absolutely want to release these files. We want to 640 00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:19,720 Speaker 2: know who is involved and people need to be prosecuted. 641 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,640 Speaker 2: It's not enough just to say here you go, who 642 00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:29,919 Speaker 2: goes to jail? Because if people don't go to jail, well, 643 00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:34,440 Speaker 2: then what are we doing? So right now you've got 644 00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:40,879 Speaker 2: Thomas Massey speaking and discussing the legislation which is now 645 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:42,200 Speaker 2: a great part of this debate. 646 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 15: Our judicial system is broken. If it were working, there 647 00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:48,919 Speaker 15: wouldn't be a thousand victims who haven't seen justice yet. 648 00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:55,280 Speaker 15: They are victims of the Epstein class. I'd begrudge nobody 649 00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 15: success if they become a billionaire. But if you think 650 00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:01,879 Speaker 15: being a billionaire or by eyeing politicians keeps you out 651 00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:05,800 Speaker 15: of the judicial system, lets you rape young women, lets 652 00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:07,560 Speaker 15: you traffic women. 653 00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:13,200 Speaker 3: Got another thing coming when this bill passes, do not 654 00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:16,480 Speaker 3: let the Senate muck this up. There have already been. 655 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:23,359 Speaker 15: Efforts derailed this our discharge petition, the Oversight Committee has 656 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,560 Speaker 15: released thousands, tens of thousands of documents. 657 00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:33,240 Speaker 3: That's fine, keep working. How many names have you released? Zero? 658 00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:36,640 Speaker 3: You are still protecting where the DOJ. 659 00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:40,520 Speaker 15: Is protecting pedophiles and sex traffickers. The time for that 660 00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:45,239 Speaker 15: to stop is now now. Our speaker says, oh, this 661 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 15: bill needs him ended in the Senate. And specifically, he's 662 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:49,840 Speaker 15: trying to create a loophole. 663 00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:50,799 Speaker 3: He's trying to. 664 00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:53,480 Speaker 15: Categorize the pedophiles as victims. 665 00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:56,600 Speaker 3: He's saying, oh, we don't embarrass the people that went 666 00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:58,000 Speaker 3: to the rape Island. 667 00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:04,120 Speaker 15: We should protect those names against unreliable accusations. Is he 668 00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:07,560 Speaker 15: calling all of these victims unreliable? 669 00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:12,239 Speaker 3: They've testified to the FBI. The FBI has these names 670 00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:13,319 Speaker 3: in their possession. 671 00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:17,000 Speaker 15: I asked the FBI director in a hearing, have you 672 00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:20,399 Speaker 15: looked at the documents? No, he trusts everybody that's been 673 00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:21,680 Speaker 15: there for decades. 674 00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:24,960 Speaker 3: That is wrong. Do not let the Senate muck this 675 00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:25,640 Speaker 3: bill up. 676 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:29,400 Speaker 15: And if you are, if you're a party to that 677 00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:31,400 Speaker 15: in the Senate, you are part of this cover up 678 00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:34,759 Speaker 15: that we are trying to expose. No no, no, no, 679 00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:36,680 Speaker 15: no millionaire donor no no. 680 00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 3: Because he went to rape Island and. 681 00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:41,799 Speaker 2: Anybody who was on the island, you want to throw 682 00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:44,200 Speaker 2: them in jail, go right ahead, Representative Messy. But if 683 00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:46,759 Speaker 2: the argument is you need to redact the names of 684 00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:49,399 Speaker 2: victims who might not want to be made famous. Then 685 00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:52,799 Speaker 2: do that the discharge petition doesn't lacks a flaw, And 686 00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:54,880 Speaker 2: you tell me I'm wrong for that. You've got a 687 00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:56,919 Speaker 2: helen a hand basket. Just who do you think you are? 688 00:40:57,120 --> 00:40:59,960 Speaker 2: You ain't the toughest guy in the room. I've seen 689 00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:02,360 Speaker 2: you in a vest. By the way, he is wearing 690 00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:05,400 Speaker 2: a three piece suit and the great vest underneath. And 691 00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:08,080 Speaker 2: I don't think it goes. But this isn't the fashion police. 692 00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:11,480 Speaker 2: This is rationality. You don't expose victims who don't want 693 00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:13,520 Speaker 2: to be exposed, and you don't think of yourself as 694 00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:16,279 Speaker 2: somehow moral or pious because you're doing it. 695 00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:17,200 Speaker 3: Change this bill. 696 00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:18,640 Speaker 2: Is this going to get screwed up in the Senate. 697 00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:21,120 Speaker 2: It's going to get changed in the Senate because you're 698 00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:25,319 Speaker 2: not engaging the protections justice. You should be with that. 699 00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:28,520 Speaker 2: But I will appreciate the idea of pushing to make 700 00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:33,359 Speaker 2: sure these files get released. And absolutely the move from 701 00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:36,080 Speaker 2: President Trump to say release the files changes a lot 702 00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:39,480 Speaker 2: of things in a lot of good ways. Yes, I am, 703 00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:43,919 Speaker 2: and the President got moved to releasing the files because 704 00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:46,399 Speaker 2: he was wrong to begin with. Remember when he said 705 00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 2: it didn't matter, when he said this is just a hoax, 706 00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:51,200 Speaker 2: when he said, why are you bothering with this? He 707 00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:56,480 Speaker 2: was wrong, that's all. He misread the room, He misread 708 00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:59,200 Speaker 2: the party. And then you had the influencers, anybody who 709 00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:01,480 Speaker 2: will do anything done, Trump says, and believe it. Oh 710 00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:04,200 Speaker 2: my gosh, we shouldn't release this. President Trump says, it's 711 00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:06,080 Speaker 2: a hoax. It doesn't matter why you're paying attention to this. 712 00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:09,680 Speaker 2: They were all wrong, every single one of them was wrong. 713 00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:14,279 Speaker 2: The American people were right. People in the political right 714 00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:16,200 Speaker 2: got told, yeah, you were told about EV's seen, you 715 00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:18,080 Speaker 2: talked about amsceeen, But it turns out it never mattered 716 00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:20,759 Speaker 2: and you don't care about this. And the people were like, oh, 717 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:23,520 Speaker 2: yes we do, and we don't care who you are, 718 00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:25,520 Speaker 2: how many followers you have, or anything else. 719 00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:26,480 Speaker 4: No, no, no, we're right. 720 00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:31,120 Speaker 2: We are right. Release the files, but you got to 721 00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:34,080 Speaker 2: release them in a way that makes sense. Can't victimize 722 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:36,600 Speaker 2: people a second time just because you're going to prove 723 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:40,080 Speaker 2: that they can be released. I want to know who 724 00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:43,160 Speaker 2: was involved, so do you can't we know that in 725 00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:47,200 Speaker 2: a right way. Now they've got Democrats talking truth and 726 00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:49,360 Speaker 2: transparency for the American people. 727 00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:52,640 Speaker 16: Now, Republican leaders in this host lost control of the story. 728 00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:56,359 Speaker 16: They lost the ability to hide behind procedure, and they 729 00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:58,759 Speaker 16: lost the luxury of pretending that they were ever on 730 00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:02,919 Speaker 16: the right side. The American people see it, survivors see 731 00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:04,399 Speaker 16: it in history, will see it. 732 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:06,680 Speaker 2: And listening to the speaker. 733 00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:09,560 Speaker 16: Of the House's press conference today, I mean it sounds 734 00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:11,399 Speaker 16: like he basically wants to kill this whole thing. 735 00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:12,759 Speaker 4: Absolutely not. 736 00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:16,000 Speaker 2: That is a lie from a governed the Democrat, flat 737 00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:17,480 Speaker 2: out lie. I listened to it. 738 00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:18,879 Speaker 4: I'll share it with you in the next hour. 739 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:23,800 Speaker 16: Vivors want what an awful, awful thing to do, So. 740 00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:25,360 Speaker 2: Let us release the files. 741 00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:29,000 Speaker 16: Let's give survivors the transparency they've long been denied. 742 00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:32,560 Speaker 2: Let us this is ignorantly stupid of him. Billionaire eliefs 743 00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:34,960 Speaker 2: who think they can You think this is about Republican 744 00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:38,240 Speaker 2: versus Democrat, and you're a continuing fee And let's. 745 00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:39,880 Speaker 4: Rememb place at Hell for stuff like this. 746 00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:40,520 Speaker 2: We had to be. 747 00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:44,359 Speaker 16: Dragged here under duress, and who stood up from day 748 00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:47,920 Speaker 16: one demanding the truth and with that year. 749 00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:53,320 Speaker 17: Back gross members are in mindful of strains from engaging 750 00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:55,120 Speaker 17: in personalities towards the president. 751 00:43:58,440 --> 00:43:59,359 Speaker 4: Coman yields back. 752 00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:02,440 Speaker 2: The general Lady from North Carolina is recognized. 753 00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:04,200 Speaker 7: Thank you, mister speaker. 754 00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:13,640 Speaker 14: Mister Speaker, those of us who did not sign the 755 00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:23,520 Speaker 14: discharge petition are just as concerned about the victims or 756 00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:30,719 Speaker 14: as some are calling them, survivors, as our colleagues who 757 00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:38,399 Speaker 14: signed the discharge petition. We share contempt for anyone who 758 00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:43,760 Speaker 14: abused anyone else. I've stood on this floor many times, 759 00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:49,880 Speaker 14: Speaker to speak out for victims and survivors of people 760 00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:56,400 Speaker 14: who have been abused, and against anyone who breaks the 761 00:44:56,520 --> 00:45:01,120 Speaker 14: law or takes advantage of an innocent person. 762 00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:03,360 Speaker 4: So this is Virginia Foxx. 763 00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:07,280 Speaker 14: She characterized as insensitive. 764 00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:10,520 Speaker 2: To that she is a Republican from North Carolina speaking 765 00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:14,200 Speaker 2: about the position of this is about what the discharge 766 00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:15,239 Speaker 2: petition does. 767 00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:15,440 Speaker 5: Now. 768 00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:18,200 Speaker 4: A discharge petition is a petition. 769 00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:24,319 Speaker 2: If signed by a large enough group, it avoids all 770 00:45:24,360 --> 00:45:27,480 Speaker 2: the normal channels of legislation getting to the floor for 771 00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:31,440 Speaker 2: a vote, and bring them to a vote immediately. The 772 00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:33,960 Speaker 2: problem with this discharge petition is I've been stating, is 773 00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:35,880 Speaker 2: that it's going to let loose a whole bunch of information, 774 00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:43,359 Speaker 2: doesn't redact anything. It's a problem. It's a legitimate, legitimate problem. 775 00:45:43,800 --> 00:45:47,600 Speaker 2: Being asked in the chat, why does it need a vote? 776 00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:51,600 Speaker 2: The release of the files does indeed need a vote? Now, 777 00:45:51,640 --> 00:45:55,240 Speaker 2: I think the question you might be asking is, well, 778 00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:58,520 Speaker 2: can't the president just release this information? 779 00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:01,239 Speaker 4: One could argue yes. 780 00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:06,719 Speaker 2: One could also argue that there is a system by 781 00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:10,480 Speaker 2: which you go about the engaging of releasing of things 782 00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:13,239 Speaker 2: that have been involved in or currently possibly in investigation, 783 00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:20,640 Speaker 2: and that's where the congressional approval comes into play. All 784 00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:24,919 Speaker 2: that said, the push for the discharge petition I believe 785 00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:27,360 Speaker 2: is a mistake. The release of the files I believe 786 00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:28,160 Speaker 2: is necessary. 787 00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:30,520 Speaker 4: More is coming up. Keep it here. I'm Tony kas Than. 788 00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:31,680 Speaker 4: This is Tony kats today. 789 00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:34,200 Speaker 18: It's a forty three days shutdown and now it's Epstein. 790 00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:37,600 Speaker 18: And by the way, by the way, the same party 791 00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:40,560 Speaker 18: that did all that, they were also the ones who 792 00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:44,040 Speaker 18: were texting with mister Epstein during a hearing where Michael 793 00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:46,560 Speaker 18: Cohen was their witness in another. 794 00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:48,560 Speaker 3: Effort to go after the president. 795 00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:53,640 Speaker 2: That is Jim Jordan being absolutely correct. Where were Democrats 796 00:46:53,680 --> 00:46:55,760 Speaker 2: to do this over the last four years and release 797 00:46:55,960 --> 00:46:59,120 Speaker 2: the Epstein files? This is the House debate about calling 798 00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:02,000 Speaker 2: the vote to release the files. Tony Katz, Tony Katz today, 799 00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:05,480 Speaker 2: I'm bringing you everything and Jim Jordan's saying where were you? Well, 800 00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:08,200 Speaker 2: you didn't do it because you knew that you were. 801 00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:10,279 Speaker 2: Some of your people are in there. As a matter 802 00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:13,520 Speaker 2: of fact, your people were talking to Jeffrey Epstein during hearings. 803 00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:16,080 Speaker 16: That's Delegate Stacey Plaskett of the US. 804 00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:19,120 Speaker 2: Virgin Islands who was texting with Jeffrey Epstein during a 805 00:47:19,160 --> 00:47:21,640 Speaker 2: hearing where Michael Cohen, the fixer, the guy who went 806 00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:23,560 Speaker 2: to jail for trying to bribe Nike. I believe it 807 00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:25,520 Speaker 2: was or no way it was that the other guy. 808 00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:26,000 Speaker 2: I don't know. 809 00:47:26,040 --> 00:47:29,640 Speaker 4: He tried he brought somebody. Wait, who is the guy? 810 00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:34,239 Speaker 2: Bald guy Abnetti Abinadi, the lawyer for Storry Daniels. He 811 00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:36,480 Speaker 2: was the one trying to bribe people. Michael Cohen was 812 00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:41,359 Speaker 2: just a yucks And so he is testifying and Stacey Plaskett, 813 00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:44,360 Speaker 2: the delegate from the US Virgin Islands is texting with 814 00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:47,759 Speaker 2: Jeffrey Epstein and gaining advice from him on what to ask. 815 00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:51,439 Speaker 2: These people don't care about Epstein. They care about Trump 816 00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:55,480 Speaker 2: and attacking Trump. We care about getting data who was 817 00:47:55,520 --> 00:47:57,400 Speaker 2: involved in abusing young girls and when do they go 818 00:47:57,440 --> 00:48:00,680 Speaker 2: to jail? His argument is correct, Let's bring it back 819 00:48:00,719 --> 00:48:01,720 Speaker 2: to Congressman Jim. 820 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:03,239 Speaker 3: Jordanstein to miss Maxwell. 821 00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:06,879 Speaker 18: When the Democrats released it, they redacted the victim's name, 822 00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:13,600 Speaker 18: something we all support, something everyone supports, except except in 823 00:48:13,680 --> 00:48:17,160 Speaker 18: this case, no court had ordered that name redacted, no 824 00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:20,279 Speaker 18: agency had redacted it, and the estate didn't redact it. 825 00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:24,719 Speaker 18: And the victim had already went public. So why black 826 00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:28,520 Speaker 18: out her name? Why black out her name? Because she 827 00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:32,040 Speaker 18: had said in her book and had testified underwrote that 828 00:48:32,080 --> 00:48:35,400 Speaker 18: she never saw any wrongdoing by President Trump. 829 00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:38,200 Speaker 2: He's talking about Virginia Giffrey, who has since passed away, 830 00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:40,200 Speaker 2: a victim, the one you see in the photos with 831 00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:44,520 Speaker 2: the former Prince Andrew where Democrats said, look at this 832 00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:47,680 Speaker 2: email that met Jeffrey Apssey mentions Trump and oh my gosh, 833 00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:50,839 Speaker 2: look Gow damning. But they redacted her name, even though 834 00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:53,279 Speaker 2: she was already known to be a victim, and she 835 00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:56,080 Speaker 2: has already on the record said she never had any 836 00:48:56,120 --> 00:48:57,439 Speaker 2: interactions with Trump ever. 837 00:48:57,520 --> 00:48:57,719 Speaker 4: Ever. 838 00:48:57,800 --> 00:49:02,920 Speaker 18: Ever, their position, their position cover up the names of 839 00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:06,120 Speaker 18: people who are already public, but don't worry about other 840 00:49:06,200 --> 00:49:08,680 Speaker 18: innocent people who the court said should remain private. 841 00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:12,279 Speaker 2: He's right, gosh, I think the American. 842 00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:14,560 Speaker 18: People see through it. They see through what the Democrats 843 00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:16,640 Speaker 18: are doing. The American people know. 844 00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:19,640 Speaker 4: What this is. They know Democrats have nothing. 845 00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:23,440 Speaker 18: Else to run on because of the success of this administration. 846 00:49:24,640 --> 00:49:27,360 Speaker 18: So I say, let's vote yes on this resolution and 847 00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:29,680 Speaker 18: then let's get focused on making sure we're doing what 848 00:49:29,719 --> 00:49:31,640 Speaker 18: the American families elected us to do. 849 00:49:32,719 --> 00:49:33,239 Speaker 3: With that, I. 850 00:49:33,239 --> 00:49:38,000 Speaker 17: Reserve the gentleman, reserves the gentleman from Maryland thousand percent. 851 00:49:38,080 --> 00:49:42,440 Speaker 17: Correct myself such time I consume, Okay, the General's reconized off. 852 00:49:42,280 --> 00:49:43,680 Speaker 4: The road, and do not throw anything. 853 00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:47,719 Speaker 19: It's Jamie Raskin, mister kan and mister Massey introduced their 854 00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:51,960 Speaker 19: discharge petition, perhaps the most famous discharge petition in American history. 855 00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:56,839 Speaker 19: The People's House unites across party lines to draw a 856 00:49:57,000 --> 00:50:02,040 Speaker 19: moral line. We draw a line against the rape and sexual. 857 00:50:01,640 --> 00:50:02,960 Speaker 3: Violation of children. 858 00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:03,319 Speaker 7: Good. 859 00:50:03,440 --> 00:50:06,880 Speaker 10: We draw a line against the global criminal trafficking of 860 00:50:06,960 --> 00:50:10,719 Speaker 10: girls and young women to service the pleasure of rich 861 00:50:10,840 --> 00:50:13,160 Speaker 10: and powerful men believe. 862 00:50:12,840 --> 00:50:15,960 Speaker 20: They are beyond all law and all morality. 863 00:50:16,280 --> 00:50:19,440 Speaker 10: We draw a line to put the voices of the 864 00:50:19,560 --> 00:50:24,400 Speaker 10: victims and the survivors first. We asked the Senate to 865 00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:28,200 Speaker 10: join us without changes, rather than obstruct this bill with 866 00:50:28,640 --> 00:50:34,440 Speaker 10: dilatory amendments. Legislative graffiti and self dealing million dollar jackpot 867 00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:36,400 Speaker 10: provisions for lucky senators. 868 00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:42,040 Speaker 19: Just past the bill, we're finally voting. The bipartisan discharge 869 00:50:42,080 --> 00:50:46,400 Speaker 19: petition led by Representatives Massey and Kannon, signed by two 870 00:50:46,480 --> 00:50:52,040 Speaker 19: hundred and eighteen of US overthrew the determined obstruction of 871 00:50:52,080 --> 00:50:55,799 Speaker 19: the speaker. The horse vote means the House will no 872 00:50:55,920 --> 00:51:01,640 Speaker 19: longer acquiesce in this astonishing, real time cover up. 873 00:51:02,120 --> 00:51:04,200 Speaker 4: This is why everyone hates Congress. 874 00:51:04,239 --> 00:51:09,200 Speaker 10: Global sex trafficking and child rape ring that has ravaged 875 00:51:09,239 --> 00:51:12,600 Speaker 10: the lives of more than a thousand girls and young women. 876 00:51:13,640 --> 00:51:17,839 Speaker 10: We're here today because these victims, these survivors, these citizens, 877 00:51:18,239 --> 00:51:22,680 Speaker 10: these inspiring women who have come to Washington are demanding 878 00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:27,040 Speaker 10: nothing less than justice and the complete truth about who 879 00:51:27,120 --> 00:51:32,120 Speaker 10: is responsible for their vicious abuse, including those responsible for 880 00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:37,840 Speaker 10: enabling it, ignoring it, bank rolling it, and covering it up. 881 00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:42,040 Speaker 10: We join them today in rejecting any more dangerous lies 882 00:51:42,120 --> 00:51:42,719 Speaker 10: about the. 883 00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:44,440 Speaker 2: Crimes they suffered. 884 00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:47,720 Speaker 3: No, child sex abuse is not a hoax. 885 00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:50,320 Speaker 4: It's no, it never was a hoax. 886 00:51:50,719 --> 00:51:54,080 Speaker 2: President trumk was wrong to call the Jeffrey Epstein conversation 887 00:51:54,200 --> 00:52:00,239 Speaker 2: a hoax. He hurt his own cause here, but dear lord, 888 00:52:00,600 --> 00:52:04,480 Speaker 2: making this political. When you sit there and claim that 889 00:52:04,560 --> 00:52:08,080 Speaker 2: it's about women and it's about children, and it's about 890 00:52:08,480 --> 00:52:11,520 Speaker 2: a better America and it's about holding people to account, 891 00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:15,560 Speaker 2: that's not what you're saying. Representative Raskin, we see you, 892 00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:19,920 Speaker 2: we hear you, and we're like, my god, do you suck? 893 00:52:21,880 --> 00:52:25,680 Speaker 2: You're engaged in a conversation of value, and you can't 894 00:52:25,680 --> 00:52:32,200 Speaker 2: do it in a valuable way. The Republican Party, Trump, 895 00:52:32,239 --> 00:52:35,319 Speaker 2: I should say, definitely through the wrench in here. He 896 00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:37,200 Speaker 2: didn't have to say what he said. He didn't have 897 00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:39,320 Speaker 2: to do it. He didn't have to say it didn't matter. 898 00:52:39,560 --> 00:52:42,320 Speaker 2: It did matter, and it always mattered. And you gave 899 00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:45,920 Speaker 2: them this ammunition that they're using today. You gave it 900 00:52:45,960 --> 00:52:49,400 Speaker 2: to them. But Raskin will never look at all the 901 00:52:49,440 --> 00:52:51,839 Speaker 2: Democrats that are involved, and we are interested in looking 902 00:52:51,880 --> 00:52:54,160 Speaker 2: at everybody who's involved and figuring out. 903 00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:56,840 Speaker 4: Who has to go to jail. That's the difference. 904 00:52:57,239 --> 00:53:01,799 Speaker 2: That's the difference between you and Raskin, You and the progressives. 905 00:53:02,480 --> 00:53:05,319 Speaker 2: You can't sit idly by and watch this happen, and 906 00:53:05,400 --> 00:53:07,280 Speaker 2: he can say, how does this hurt Trump? 907 00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:13,560 Speaker 4: He's doing it right now, bringing. 908 00:53:13,320 --> 00:53:16,800 Speaker 2: Up Trump's first the second Trife Health and Human Service 909 00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:21,440 Speaker 2: brought down the entire criminal network, and. 910 00:53:21,280 --> 00:53:23,680 Speaker 10: With that, I'm going to yield. 911 00:53:25,040 --> 00:53:26,279 Speaker 2: I'll reserve the balance of my time. 912 00:53:26,440 --> 00:53:29,800 Speaker 4: The gentleman reserves. The gentleman from Ohio is recorded, Jean Miss. 913 00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:32,080 Speaker 18: Speaker, I yield four minutes to distinguished Chair of the 914 00:53:32,080 --> 00:53:35,120 Speaker 18: House Overside Committee, mister Comer, and the gentleman from Kentucky. 915 00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:36,880 Speaker 4: The gentleman from Kentucky is recognized. 916 00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:38,520 Speaker 2: Thank you, Richard. 917 00:53:38,280 --> 00:53:41,440 Speaker 21: Speaker as Chairman of the House Overside Committee. I've always 918 00:53:41,520 --> 00:53:45,600 Speaker 21: believed that sunshine is the best disinfected. For years, the 919 00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:49,080 Speaker 21: American people have demanded transparency about Jeffrey Epstein and Gleame 920 00:53:49,160 --> 00:53:54,040 Speaker 21: Maxwell's horrific crimes and about the federal government's failure to 921 00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:58,120 Speaker 21: protect the victims. The House Overside Committee is conducting a 922 00:53:58,200 --> 00:54:01,960 Speaker 21: thorough review of the federal government's instigation into Epstein. Our 923 00:54:01,960 --> 00:54:06,040 Speaker 21: work goes far beyond the legislation before us. Today, we 924 00:54:06,080 --> 00:54:09,680 Speaker 21: are committed to accountability, transparency, and justice for the American 925 00:54:09,719 --> 00:54:14,920 Speaker 21: people and for the survivors of these appalling crimes. To date, 926 00:54:15,560 --> 00:54:18,600 Speaker 21: the Oversight Committee has released more than sixty five thousand 927 00:54:18,719 --> 00:54:23,799 Speaker 21: pages of documents issued thirteen subpoenas and conducted interviews with 928 00:54:23,840 --> 00:54:28,040 Speaker 21: two key witnesses, both of whom were Republicans. The Trump 929 00:54:28,080 --> 00:54:31,200 Speaker 21: administration has provided US with Department of Justice materials and 930 00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:37,240 Speaker 21: access to suspicious activity reports. Unfortunately, throughout this investigation, Democrats 931 00:54:37,280 --> 00:54:41,880 Speaker 21: have chosen to manufacture yet another anti Trump hoax. Instead 932 00:54:41,960 --> 00:54:47,920 Speaker 21: of pursuing justice, they have mischaracterized witness testimony and selectively 933 00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:52,160 Speaker 21: released documents complete with targeted redactions. 934 00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:54,560 Speaker 3: In an effort to smear President Trump. 935 00:54:55,480 --> 00:54:59,840 Speaker 21: For example, Triuver US Attorney General Bill Barr, who oversaw 936 00:54:59,840 --> 00:55:05,839 Speaker 21: the twenty nineteen Epstein investigation, stated clearly under oath that 937 00:55:05,880 --> 00:55:11,719 Speaker 21: the prosecution team failed no evidence that President Trump committed wrongdoing. 938 00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:14,239 Speaker 3: Despite this, it. 939 00:55:14,280 --> 00:55:16,960 Speaker 2: Is absolutely true that so much of other Democrats have 940 00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:21,279 Speaker 2: put forth is this Trump derangement syndrome conversation. And the 941 00:55:21,320 --> 00:55:23,960 Speaker 2: reason that I want to share this as it's going 942 00:55:23,960 --> 00:55:27,080 Speaker 2: on is a it's important to hear what they're saying, 943 00:55:27,160 --> 00:55:29,600 Speaker 2: so you always have the baseline, you know exactly what happened. 944 00:55:32,440 --> 00:55:36,000 Speaker 4: We can't come together to go after child sex traffickers. 945 00:55:37,480 --> 00:55:40,279 Speaker 4: That's broken. This is Tony Cox today. 946 00:55:41,080 --> 00:55:42,000 Speaker 2: House cover up. 947 00:55:42,280 --> 00:55:45,480 Speaker 12: Now now we know that Donald Trump has tried everything 948 00:55:45,880 --> 00:55:50,200 Speaker 12: to kill our Jeffrey Epstein investigation, and he's failed, and. 949 00:55:50,080 --> 00:55:53,359 Speaker 2: Now he's panicking. He's about to lose his. 950 00:55:53,320 --> 00:55:56,360 Speaker 12: Epstein vote to force a Department of Justice to release 951 00:55:56,480 --> 00:55:57,080 Speaker 12: the files. 952 00:55:57,640 --> 00:56:01,480 Speaker 2: And that is the Democrat Representative Garcia and saying Trump 953 00:56:01,520 --> 00:56:05,600 Speaker 2: has lost his bid to hide all the Epstein files, 954 00:56:05,640 --> 00:56:08,200 Speaker 2: and now this vote is going to happen. Let me 955 00:56:08,239 --> 00:56:11,520 Speaker 2: tell you, Donald Trump is the worst king in history. 956 00:56:11,800 --> 00:56:15,799 Speaker 2: Tony Kats, Tony Kats today, good to be with you. 957 00:56:16,120 --> 00:56:20,359 Speaker 2: They are debating the vote the discharge petition, and all 958 00:56:20,400 --> 00:56:23,000 Speaker 2: the Democrats can say is what is Trump hiding and 959 00:56:23,040 --> 00:56:25,440 Speaker 2: what is Pam Bondi hiding. Allow me to be clear. 960 00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:27,200 Speaker 2: I think Pam Bondy has done a terrible job as 961 00:56:27,200 --> 00:56:31,480 Speaker 2: Attorney general. I'm very disappointed. We have no major moves, 962 00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:36,040 Speaker 2: we have no understanding of things that happened during the 963 00:56:36,080 --> 00:56:36,840 Speaker 2: Biden years. 964 00:56:37,280 --> 00:56:37,680 Speaker 4: Nothing. 965 00:56:38,920 --> 00:56:41,520 Speaker 2: All she did was hand out some binders of nonsense 966 00:56:41,520 --> 00:56:43,040 Speaker 2: to some so called influencers. 967 00:56:43,560 --> 00:56:47,040 Speaker 4: She has not done the job. She hasn't. 968 00:56:47,400 --> 00:56:51,200 Speaker 2: I'm not happy with cash Pateel or Dan Bongino because 969 00:56:51,200 --> 00:56:54,000 Speaker 2: I don't think they've done enough. Now I would probably 970 00:56:54,080 --> 00:56:56,440 Speaker 2: learn that, my gosh, you have no idea. What's stacked 971 00:56:56,520 --> 00:57:01,600 Speaker 2: up against us results. We want to see. We want 972 00:57:01,600 --> 00:57:04,000 Speaker 2: to know all these people are involved in all these 973 00:57:04,040 --> 00:57:07,400 Speaker 2: criminal activities and all of these subversions of America. 974 00:57:07,520 --> 00:57:11,200 Speaker 4: What is it that's going to happen. We want the data. 975 00:57:12,400 --> 00:57:17,960 Speaker 2: So the Democrats will continue to rail about Trump. The 976 00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:21,240 Speaker 2: Republicans keep discussing this, and where the Republicans are right 977 00:57:21,280 --> 00:57:24,360 Speaker 2: now is that they do not favor what's known as 978 00:57:24,360 --> 00:57:29,680 Speaker 2: the discharge petition. They have at least explained to President 979 00:57:29,680 --> 00:57:32,720 Speaker 2: Trump enough or Trump is realized that America wants this 980 00:57:32,800 --> 00:57:35,360 Speaker 2: information and let's go to work. And President Trump, through 981 00:57:35,400 --> 00:57:39,600 Speaker 2: his own calling this a hoax, has created this problem 982 00:57:39,640 --> 00:57:43,200 Speaker 2: for himself. That's just fact. He hit it wrong. It 983 00:57:43,280 --> 00:57:45,120 Speaker 2: he read the room wrong. It's very rare for him. 984 00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:52,000 Speaker 2: And this is the result America wants to know. But 985 00:57:52,080 --> 00:57:57,680 Speaker 2: the discharge petition does not protect what they're what Democrats 986 00:57:57,680 --> 00:57:59,600 Speaker 2: are referring to with survivors, which is fine by me. 987 00:58:00,200 --> 00:58:03,840 Speaker 4: It's a fine a term. It doesn't protect these women. 988 00:58:03,920 --> 00:58:06,360 Speaker 2: It doesn't redact their names, doesn't redact names of people 989 00:58:06,360 --> 00:58:08,800 Speaker 2: who are clearly innocent, even though they might have been 990 00:58:08,880 --> 00:58:12,320 Speaker 2: named by Epstein. That's meaningless. What matters is whether or 991 00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:14,520 Speaker 2: not you're involved in abuse, so the discharge petition doesn't 992 00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:18,480 Speaker 2: protect And what Republicans are saying is we shouldn't do 993 00:58:18,520 --> 00:58:20,439 Speaker 2: it this way, we should do it so their names 994 00:58:20,480 --> 00:58:24,600 Speaker 2: are redacted. Democrats are saying, what Trump got to hide? 995 00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:31,320 Speaker 2: Why is he hiding so much? I said earlier, this 996 00:58:31,360 --> 00:58:34,120 Speaker 2: is why people hate Congress. This is it, This is 997 00:58:34,160 --> 00:58:39,120 Speaker 2: why they hate. And speaking of hate, Representative Promila Jaia. 998 00:58:38,920 --> 00:58:44,120 Speaker 22: Paul sons of girls, children were abused by Jeffrey Epstein 999 00:58:44,520 --> 00:58:50,240 Speaker 22: and his massive and powerful ring of pedophiles and protectors 1000 00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:53,680 Speaker 22: of pedophiles. We can't say all their names here, we 1001 00:58:53,680 --> 00:58:56,720 Speaker 22: don't have time, but let's at least bring a few 1002 00:58:57,160 --> 00:59:01,320 Speaker 22: of the courageous survivors and their names onto the House 1003 00:59:01,320 --> 00:59:06,480 Speaker 22: floor right here as we debate this. Haley Robson, Jenna 1004 00:59:06,880 --> 00:59:15,320 Speaker 22: Lisa Jones, Michelle Licata Ashley Rubright, Annie Farmer, Marina. 1005 00:59:15,000 --> 00:59:20,400 Speaker 23: Leserta people justice for them, tooresentatives, these women have carried 1006 00:59:20,480 --> 00:59:23,240 Speaker 23: a burden that they never should have had to bear, 1007 00:59:23,600 --> 00:59:28,800 Speaker 23: and today they demand, we demand, the American people demand 1008 00:59:29,040 --> 00:59:33,000 Speaker 23: that we answer their clarion call to justice today despite 1009 00:59:33,120 --> 00:59:36,400 Speaker 23: all the giant cover up attempts by this administration and 1010 00:59:36,560 --> 00:59:39,880 Speaker 23: this Speaker of the House, we will vote to release 1011 00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:41,760 Speaker 23: all the Epstein files. 1012 00:59:41,960 --> 00:59:45,080 Speaker 22: To be clear, there is no protection for pedophiles, no 1013 00:59:45,240 --> 00:59:48,320 Speaker 22: protection for the rich and powerful men of either party 1014 00:59:48,360 --> 00:59:51,800 Speaker 22: who participated, who turned a blind eye, who winked and 1015 00:59:52,000 --> 00:59:56,880 Speaker 22: grinned while witnessing the horrific abuses of young children. 1016 00:59:57,360 --> 01:00:00,640 Speaker 3: Released all the damn files. 1017 01:00:00,960 --> 01:00:04,480 Speaker 2: Now we reserve the gentleman reserves seem to really care 1018 01:00:04,520 --> 01:00:06,440 Speaker 2: about women, except for the women you're going to out 1019 01:00:06,440 --> 01:00:07,120 Speaker 2: who don't want. 1020 01:00:06,960 --> 01:00:08,760 Speaker 3: To be out here with gentlemen from North Carolina. 1021 01:00:08,800 --> 01:00:10,240 Speaker 4: And it's it's a gentleman's record. 1022 01:00:10,240 --> 01:00:12,200 Speaker 2: It's sometimes hard to believe we're actually part of the 1023 01:00:12,200 --> 01:00:13,120 Speaker 2: savery supportive of. 1024 01:00:13,120 --> 01:00:15,880 Speaker 24: This effort specifically to bring justice to the victims of 1025 01:00:15,920 --> 01:00:17,080 Speaker 24: this horrific. 1026 01:00:16,720 --> 01:00:17,720 Speaker 3: Series of crimes. 1027 01:00:17,720 --> 01:00:21,120 Speaker 24: However, I have worked behind the scenes to raise concerns 1028 01:00:21,160 --> 01:00:23,800 Speaker 24: with this petition as it is currently drafted. 1029 01:00:23,840 --> 01:00:25,600 Speaker 4: Specifically, I believe that. 1030 01:00:25,600 --> 01:00:29,000 Speaker 24: There is grave risk at harming innocent people, and I 1031 01:00:29,040 --> 01:00:33,240 Speaker 24: repeat harming innocent people. When innocent people are harmed, that 1032 01:00:33,400 --> 01:00:38,000 Speaker 24: is not furthering justice. With an investigation of this size 1033 01:00:38,240 --> 01:00:40,800 Speaker 24: and a file that is as large as the Epstein 1034 01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:43,720 Speaker 24: files and as poorly defined as that is in this petition, 1035 01:00:44,200 --> 01:00:48,280 Speaker 24: there will invariably be people who are released pursuing to 1036 01:00:48,360 --> 01:00:53,160 Speaker 24: this discharge petition who had nothing to do with criminal activity. Imagine, 1037 01:00:53,200 --> 01:00:56,600 Speaker 24: if you will, a bellman, a waiter, some type of dorman, 1038 01:00:56,760 --> 01:01:01,120 Speaker 24: a mere social attendee who had no impact whatsoever on 1039 01:01:01,160 --> 01:01:02,520 Speaker 24: the criminal activities of. 1040 01:01:02,560 --> 01:01:07,120 Speaker 3: Jeffrey Epstein, no participation. Their lives are forever ruined. 1041 01:01:07,160 --> 01:01:11,640 Speaker 24: And I'm reading specifically from the petition's language that prohibited 1042 01:01:11,680 --> 01:01:17,720 Speaker 24: grounds for withholding information in this file are embarrassment, reputational harm, 1043 01:01:18,000 --> 01:01:22,000 Speaker 24: or political sensitivity. And I would just submit, if you 1044 01:01:22,040 --> 01:01:24,040 Speaker 24: were going to be embarrassed, if you were going to suffer, 1045 01:01:24,480 --> 01:01:27,000 Speaker 24: suffer social harm, and that is all of the encompass 1046 01:01:27,040 --> 01:01:29,560 Speaker 24: activity that you were part of, you will be named 1047 01:01:29,560 --> 01:01:33,240 Speaker 24: in this petition. And I resent that innocent people should 1048 01:01:33,280 --> 01:01:38,120 Speaker 24: not be harmed when we are pursuing justice. I understand 1049 01:01:38,120 --> 01:01:41,360 Speaker 24: the political nature of this petition. I resent the fact 1050 01:01:41,400 --> 01:01:44,600 Speaker 24: that there was not room for good faith amendments, and 1051 01:01:44,680 --> 01:01:47,560 Speaker 24: I urge the Senate to protect innocent people. 1052 01:01:47,800 --> 01:01:49,640 Speaker 4: I ye'll back. 1053 01:01:49,720 --> 01:01:51,800 Speaker 2: They're admitting that the house is going up Maryland. 1054 01:01:52,160 --> 01:01:52,840 Speaker 4: That's what that was. 1055 01:01:52,880 --> 01:01:55,320 Speaker 10: If you didn't catch that, to the distinction generally from 1056 01:01:55,360 --> 01:01:56,840 Speaker 10: cal it was an. 1057 01:01:56,760 --> 01:01:59,880 Speaker 2: Admission that the House is going to pass this disc 1058 01:02:00,080 --> 01:02:03,360 Speaker 2: charchs petition. This is happening. Now it goes to the Senate, 1059 01:02:03,400 --> 01:02:06,600 Speaker 2: and the Senate's gonna say you're not protecting these people, 1060 01:02:06,680 --> 01:02:13,400 Speaker 2: You're crazy, and the frustration will only grow and that's 1061 01:02:13,600 --> 01:02:17,240 Speaker 2: just so ugly. I sometimes in these moments when these 1062 01:02:17,240 --> 01:02:19,480 Speaker 2: things are happening, and I do like to share them, 1063 01:02:19,480 --> 01:02:23,880 Speaker 2: I do debate whether or not, like like is it overkills? 1064 01:02:23,920 --> 01:02:25,440 Speaker 2: Is it too much? And part of me is just, 1065 01:02:25,520 --> 01:02:30,960 Speaker 2: you know, you really need to you really need to 1066 01:02:30,960 --> 01:02:33,760 Speaker 2: to kind of hear it for yourself. And part of 1067 01:02:33,800 --> 01:02:36,280 Speaker 2: the argument, because I got asked earlier, does this even 1068 01:02:36,320 --> 01:02:39,640 Speaker 2: need to vote? Could Trump just release things? There are 1069 01:02:39,680 --> 01:02:44,520 Speaker 2: subpoenas and he hasn't followed the subpoena. The the the 1070 01:02:44,640 --> 01:02:47,960 Speaker 2: end result, because I think if they want to place 1071 01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:51,440 Speaker 2: some of this on Trump, they more than they can. Again, 1072 01:02:52,480 --> 01:02:55,520 Speaker 2: he did a little bit of this to himself. But 1073 01:02:55,760 --> 01:02:58,280 Speaker 2: the overarching of you didn't care about. 1074 01:02:58,000 --> 01:03:01,320 Speaker 4: Any of this. You had all the opportunity in the world, 1075 01:03:01,400 --> 01:03:01,960 Speaker 4: you didn't. 1076 01:03:02,640 --> 01:03:09,040 Speaker 2: This is all political for you. This is all political, 1077 01:03:09,240 --> 01:03:13,480 Speaker 2: every last bit of it, no part of it. Do 1078 01:03:13,600 --> 01:03:17,760 Speaker 2: I believe that the political left in the main as 1079 01:03:17,800 --> 01:03:22,520 Speaker 2: a party cares about Congressman Ship Roy of Texas now 1080 01:03:22,560 --> 01:03:24,000 Speaker 2: getting recognized ste Hereman. 1081 01:03:24,040 --> 01:03:27,480 Speaker 13: Today, a United Republican Party and a bipartisan super majority 1082 01:03:27,520 --> 01:03:30,680 Speaker 13: is going to pass a bill to increase transparency regarding 1083 01:03:30,680 --> 01:03:34,640 Speaker 13: the egregious abuses by Jeffrey Epstein, a goal that anyone 1084 01:03:34,640 --> 01:03:38,760 Speaker 13: of conscious desires, that is in totality and important statement 1085 01:03:38,800 --> 01:03:41,200 Speaker 13: to check the rich and the powerful. Remember how we 1086 01:03:41,240 --> 01:03:44,760 Speaker 13: got here after decades. It was President Trump's Department of 1087 01:03:44,920 --> 01:03:49,440 Speaker 13: Justice that indicted Jeffrey Epstein in July of twenty nineteen. 1088 01:03:48,520 --> 01:03:50,320 Speaker 4: It was indicted Ms. 1089 01:03:50,400 --> 01:03:50,920 Speaker 3: Maxwell. 1090 01:03:51,440 --> 01:03:54,880 Speaker 13: It was the Republican led Oversight Committee, through thirteen subpoenas 1091 01:03:55,040 --> 01:03:58,160 Speaker 13: that has released sixty five thousand pages of files in 1092 01:03:58,320 --> 01:04:01,000 Speaker 13: just ten months. Meanwhile, my colleagues outther side of the 1093 01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:04,160 Speaker 13: aisle have largely ignored this issue. It was Democrats who 1094 01:04:04,160 --> 01:04:07,000 Speaker 13: were dacted an email to mislead the American people about 1095 01:04:07,000 --> 01:04:10,480 Speaker 13: the truth of a witness that exonerated President Trump. It 1096 01:04:10,520 --> 01:04:13,760 Speaker 13: was a Democrat representative plus said, who literally texted with 1097 01:04:13,840 --> 01:04:17,800 Speaker 13: Jeffrey Epstein. As we question Michael Cohen. It was Democrats 1098 01:04:17,840 --> 01:04:20,760 Speaker 13: who shut down the government, resulting in the delay of 1099 01:04:20,800 --> 01:04:24,240 Speaker 13: swearing into members. As we vote to pass this legislation, 1100 01:04:24,320 --> 01:04:27,400 Speaker 13: and it will pass. It is impossible, however, to avoid 1101 01:04:27,440 --> 01:04:32,960 Speaker 13: problems with its politicization. One colleague has offensively gone so 1102 01:04:33,040 --> 01:04:35,520 Speaker 13: far as to say that to oppose this bill means 1103 01:04:35,520 --> 01:04:39,640 Speaker 13: you support pedophiles. Yet I know good public servants, former 1104 01:04:39,720 --> 01:04:43,840 Speaker 13: law enforcement, former prosecutors who never knew Epstein, never knew 1105 01:04:43,840 --> 01:04:47,480 Speaker 13: any visitors to its criminal enterprise, who have genuine concerns 1106 01:04:47,640 --> 01:04:50,480 Speaker 13: about supporting this bill out of fear of creating new 1107 01:04:50,600 --> 01:04:54,480 Speaker 13: victims or harming existing victims, or both. That is what 1108 01:04:54,520 --> 01:04:58,560 Speaker 13: we produced Congress to inserting itself into the prosecutorial process 1109 01:04:58,800 --> 01:05:03,360 Speaker 13: for political motivation, driven heavily by hatred of President Trump. 1110 01:05:03,680 --> 01:05:07,000 Speaker 13: We should be concerned about victim privacy, concerned about risking 1111 01:05:07,000 --> 01:05:10,840 Speaker 13: disclosure of non credible allegations of child sexual abuse materials, 1112 01:05:11,000 --> 01:05:12,320 Speaker 13: future investigations. 1113 01:05:12,480 --> 01:05:14,440 Speaker 3: But here's the deal. The leaders of. 1114 01:05:14,400 --> 01:05:17,200 Speaker 13: This nation must expose abuses by the rich and the powerful. 1115 01:05:17,560 --> 01:05:20,160 Speaker 13: That is why President Trump and the House have been 1116 01:05:20,160 --> 01:05:23,080 Speaker 13: working for full transparency. But we should be motivated by 1117 01:05:23,080 --> 01:05:25,640 Speaker 13: truth and justice for all, not politics. 1118 01:05:25,720 --> 01:05:29,760 Speaker 2: I yell back, they're going to continue the debate. I 1119 01:05:30,080 --> 01:05:33,400 Speaker 2: will take the quick break, and then something that happens 1120 01:05:33,480 --> 01:05:39,400 Speaker 2: in the conversation between President Trump and Mohammad Binsamon, the 1121 01:05:39,440 --> 01:05:42,920 Speaker 2: Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, and a question that was 1122 01:05:43,080 --> 01:05:47,800 Speaker 2: asked that I thought was more about September eleventh. No, no, no, 1123 01:05:48,120 --> 01:05:50,840 Speaker 2: I miss something. Let me go and correct the record. 1124 01:05:50,920 --> 01:05:54,080 Speaker 2: Keep it here. I'm Tony Katz. This is Tony Kats today. 1125 01:05:55,680 --> 01:05:59,720 Speaker 2: This discharge petition will pass the House. Tony Kats Tony 1126 01:05:59,760 --> 01:06:02,520 Speaker 2: Kats today, and the legislation will pass and go to 1127 01:06:02,560 --> 01:06:04,840 Speaker 2: the Senate regarding the release of the Epstein files. 1128 01:06:04,840 --> 01:06:07,760 Speaker 4: In there they will say you can't release. 1129 01:06:07,520 --> 01:06:10,080 Speaker 2: The names of women who don't want their identity out, 1130 01:06:11,240 --> 01:06:14,440 Speaker 2: and Democratic will scream you're engaging a cover up for Trump. 1131 01:06:16,960 --> 01:06:19,080 Speaker 2: I will say it one more time. This is why 1132 01:06:19,080 --> 01:06:22,320 Speaker 2: people hate Congress. Tony Katz. Tony Katz today, guys, A 1133 01:06:22,360 --> 01:06:24,240 Speaker 2: pleasure to be with you.

And so the question was asked by 1148 01:07:30,400 --> 01:07:33,600 Speaker 2: ABC News and Trump was prey disgusted with the question, 1149 01:07:33,680 --> 01:07:35,760 Speaker 2: why are you embarrassing my guest? 1150 01:07:36,240 --> 01:07:37,840 Speaker 4: But this was the exchange. 1151 01:07:38,080 --> 01:07:40,240 Speaker 22: Is it appropriate, mister President, for your family to be 1152 01:07:40,280 --> 01:07:42,480 Speaker 22: doing business in Saudi Arabia while you're president? 1153 01:07:42,560 --> 01:07:43,800 Speaker 7: Is that a conflict of interest? 1154 01:07:44,120 --> 01:07:45,600 Speaker 4: And your Royal highness? 1155 01:07:45,760 --> 01:07:49,200 Speaker 11: The US Intelligence concluded that you orchestrated the brutal murder 1156 01:07:49,200 --> 01:07:49,880 Speaker 11: of a journalist. 1157 01:07:49,960 --> 01:07:51,280 Speaker 7: Not eleven families are. 1158 01:07:51,200 --> 01:07:54,160 Speaker 9: Furious that you are here in the old who watched 1159 01:07:54,760 --> 01:07:57,120 Speaker 9: who you were and the same chamus who you were? 1160 01:07:57,160 --> 01:07:59,520 Speaker 4: Howld ABC newser with who AC. 1161 01:07:59,360 --> 01:08:02,680 Speaker 6: Newser News ABC fake is one of the worst, one 1162 01:08:02,720 --> 01:08:04,400 Speaker 6: of the worst in the business. But I'll ask you 1163 01:08:04,400 --> 01:08:07,720 Speaker 6: a question. I have nothing to do with a family business. 1164 01:08:07,800 --> 01:08:10,800 Speaker 6: I have left and when I've devoted one hundred percent 1165 01:08:10,800 --> 01:08:13,720 Speaker 6: of my energy, what my family does is fine. They 1166 01:08:13,760 --> 01:08:16,759 Speaker 6: do business all over. They've done very little with Saudi Arabia. 1167 01:08:16,760 --> 01:08:17,400 Speaker 7: Actually they could. 1168 01:08:17,439 --> 01:08:20,120 Speaker 6: I'm sure they could do a lot, and anything they've 1169 01:08:20,120 --> 01:08:21,880 Speaker 6: done has been very good. That's what we've done. We've 1170 01:08:21,880 --> 01:08:24,519 Speaker 6: built a tremendous business for a long time. I've been 1171 01:08:24,600 --> 01:08:28,559 Speaker 6: very successful. I decided to leave that success fee behind 1172 01:08:28,600 --> 01:08:31,720 Speaker 6: and make America very successful. And I've made America more 1173 01:08:31,760 --> 01:08:35,559 Speaker 6: successful by far than it ever was, and that it 1174 01:08:35,600 --> 01:08:37,800 Speaker 6: ever could have been. No matter who was president, there. 1175 01:08:37,760 --> 01:08:40,080 Speaker 7: Would be nobody bringing in twenty one trillion dollars that 1176 01:08:40,200 --> 01:08:41,280 Speaker 7: I can tell you right now. 1177 01:08:42,600 --> 01:08:45,559 Speaker 2: So he then goes on to I don't know why 1178 01:08:45,600 --> 01:08:49,519 Speaker 2: you have to embarrass him like that, And he goes 1179 01:08:49,560 --> 01:08:52,559 Speaker 2: on to answer a question, answer the question regarding September eleventh, 1180 01:08:52,600 --> 01:08:54,280 Speaker 2: and I said at the time that I thought his 1181 01:08:54,439 --> 01:08:57,559 Speaker 2: answer was very very good. 1182 01:08:57,760 --> 01:08:59,120 Speaker 4: I don't know if it's believed. 1183 01:09:00,040 --> 01:09:04,280 Speaker 2: You know, Osama bin Lauden worked through Saudi Arabia to 1184 01:09:04,360 --> 01:09:07,360 Speaker 2: create a wedge between Saudi Arabia and the United States, 1185 01:09:07,400 --> 01:09:10,360 Speaker 2: and we need to better our systems and ensure this 1186 01:09:10,400 --> 01:09:15,520 Speaker 2: never happens again. And it's it's a well prepared answer, 1187 01:09:16,560 --> 01:09:20,920 Speaker 2: but I don't know if I believe that totally. But 1188 01:09:21,040 --> 01:09:25,720 Speaker 2: the Koshogi question, first, I want to be clear. I 1189 01:09:26,560 --> 01:09:29,280 Speaker 2: said this then and I'll say it now. I never 1190 01:09:29,400 --> 01:09:32,640 Speaker 2: considered Jamal Koshogi a journalist, and I don't think he 1191 01:09:32,640 --> 01:09:35,960 Speaker 2: should ever be given that distinction. So it wasn't a 1192 01:09:36,040 --> 01:09:42,600 Speaker 2: journalist that said. It's certainly cleared. It is certainly a 1193 01:09:43,439 --> 01:09:50,160 Speaker 2: legitimate argument that the Saudis did this. They did they 1194 01:09:50,200 --> 01:09:53,000 Speaker 2: did this, They did kill him, they did this member him, 1195 01:09:53,000 --> 01:09:55,160 Speaker 2: they did put him in a suitcase and drag him out. 1196 01:09:58,000 --> 01:10:05,519 Speaker 2: Our problem is that we have to often deal with 1197 01:10:05,800 --> 01:10:09,519 Speaker 2: awful if we did not deal with awful, which you 1198 01:10:09,520 --> 01:10:10,519 Speaker 2: can make an argument for. 1199 01:10:10,720 --> 01:10:12,320 Speaker 4: I please don't think of this as me. 1200 01:10:12,320 --> 01:10:18,160 Speaker 2: Excusing anything I said of the Saudis. I started with 1201 01:10:18,200 --> 01:10:23,280 Speaker 2: this that when September eleventh occurred, I don't care what 1202 01:10:23,400 --> 01:10:25,400 Speaker 2: kind of relationship we had and oil prices, this, that, 1203 01:10:25,439 --> 01:10:28,240 Speaker 2: and the other. We should have told the Saudis. You 1204 01:10:28,240 --> 01:10:31,160 Speaker 2: have to pick seventeen members of the royal family execute 1205 01:10:31,160 --> 01:10:33,760 Speaker 2: them live in front of cameras so the world can 1206 01:10:33,840 --> 01:10:36,080 Speaker 2: see it. Or we'll come in and we'll pick the 1207 01:10:36,160 --> 01:10:39,920 Speaker 2: seventeen members. But seventeen people in your family are dying, 1208 01:10:40,320 --> 01:10:43,200 Speaker 2: that's what you get. I wasn't able. I knew I 1209 01:10:43,200 --> 01:10:47,880 Speaker 2: wouldn't be able to get person for person retribution. Someone 1210 01:10:47,920 --> 01:10:50,439 Speaker 2: has to pay the price for what was done here. 1211 01:10:52,280 --> 01:10:56,000 Speaker 2: I started with that. But I deal in the real world. 1212 01:10:56,360 --> 01:10:59,240 Speaker 2: If we didn't deal with people who were awful, we 1213 01:10:59,280 --> 01:11:02,160 Speaker 2: wouldn't allow China to sell anything here and we would 1214 01:11:02,200 --> 01:11:03,360 Speaker 2: never sell anything in China. 1215 01:11:04,400 --> 01:11:06,000 Speaker 4: That's reality. 1216 01:11:06,080 --> 01:11:06,679 Speaker 2: But we do. 1217 01:11:07,800 --> 01:11:09,880 Speaker 4: We deal with people who are awful, and it is 1218 01:11:10,000 --> 01:11:11,280 Speaker 4: I agree, awful. 1219 01:11:13,120 --> 01:11:15,920 Speaker 2: But if Trump could get Saudi Arabia to be part 1220 01:11:16,000 --> 01:11:20,000 Speaker 2: of the Abraham Accords, further isolating and then eliminating the 1221 01:11:20,000 --> 01:11:23,880 Speaker 2: Iotolin the regime in Iran and engaging a level of 1222 01:11:23,920 --> 01:11:28,599 Speaker 2: greater peace in the end of terrorism against well all 1223 01:11:28,640 --> 01:11:34,320 Speaker 2: free and thinking people, that's good. That's dealing with reality. 1224 01:11:34,360 --> 01:11:36,160 Speaker 2: As it is the fact that nine to eleven families 1225 01:11:36,160 --> 01:11:40,920 Speaker 2: are upset, I wholeheartedly agree, and they have every right 1226 01:11:40,960 --> 01:11:41,160 Speaker 2: to be. 1227 01:11:44,760 --> 01:11:48,360 Speaker 4: This is what makes leadership so dang difficult. 1228 01:11:48,520 --> 01:11:52,200 Speaker 2: In a lot of ways. One man's take. Keep it here. 1229 01:11:52,600 --> 01:11:54,120 Speaker 4: This is Tony Kats today. 1230 01:12:00,360 --> 01:12:05,960 Speaker 1: Line from Vaal Hartbier and the Crossroads of America.

That's 1244 01:12:50,400 --> 01:12:54,200 Speaker 2: the next step. That step is also important for us 1245 01:12:54,520 --> 01:12:58,320 Speaker 2: because these are things that we want done. These are 1246 01:12:58,400 --> 01:13:01,760 Speaker 2: things that we want to make our life more enjoyable, 1247 01:13:01,960 --> 01:13:05,800 Speaker 2: to bring down our costs, which is a job. 1248 01:13:05,640 --> 01:13:09,439 Speaker 4: Number one for Congress to engage in. 1249 01:13:10,560 --> 01:13:14,320 Speaker 2: What are you doing regarding this quote unquote affordability issue? 1250 01:13:14,479 --> 01:13:17,160 Speaker 4: Don't get me wrong, Getting the mc files released. 1251 01:13:17,200 --> 01:13:20,559 Speaker 2: I think is good stuff, but we should be clear, 1252 01:13:20,560 --> 01:13:23,559 Speaker 2: we should engage in full clarity that what will move 1253 01:13:23,720 --> 01:13:30,120 Speaker 2: Americans more is paying less for beef and cheese and coffee. 1254 01:13:30,360 --> 01:13:35,120 Speaker 2: So while we may focus on certain things, we're nerds like, 1255 01:13:35,160 --> 01:13:40,920 Speaker 2: we're deep, deep, deep, deep into this stuff. What americans want. 1256 01:13:40,800 --> 01:13:44,680 Speaker 25: Oh, that's what matters, and what they want is to 1257 01:13:44,720 --> 01:13:51,679 Speaker 25: spend less and a recognition of what's happening, something we've 1258 01:13:51,720 --> 01:13:56,080 Speaker 25: talked about now for forever, and we got ripped. 1259 01:13:55,800 --> 01:13:57,280 Speaker 4: Asunder for but we were right. 1260 01:13:58,280 --> 01:14:00,559 Speaker 2: Of course people are going to attack. What do I 1261 01:14:00,680 --> 01:14:03,840 Speaker 2: say to Steve Bannon now, who is like calling me 1262 01:14:03,880 --> 01:14:08,400 Speaker 2: a stock Republican because I believe Scott Bessen's hasn't done 1263 01:14:08,520 --> 01:14:12,200 Speaker 2: enough to engage the conversation about here's where we're lowering costs, 1264 01:14:12,240 --> 01:14:14,640 Speaker 2: here's why things are still high, here's what we're working on, 1265 01:14:14,880 --> 01:14:16,080 Speaker 2: here's what the effect will be. 1266 01:14:16,120 --> 01:14:18,400 Speaker 4: Come join this fight with us. 1267 01:14:18,439 --> 01:14:22,800 Speaker 2: Something I've been saying for forever, the conversation about stop 1268 01:14:22,840 --> 01:14:26,960 Speaker 2: telling us everything is good when it's not good. And 1269 01:14:27,000 --> 01:14:30,120 Speaker 2: now they're telling us everything is not good. But here's 1270 01:14:30,120 --> 01:14:34,000 Speaker 2: what they're working on. They took our advice, and it's 1271 01:14:34,040 --> 01:14:37,200 Speaker 2: not like we're so smart. It's just that we were 1272 01:14:37,280 --> 01:14:39,679 Speaker 2: more honest about the thing. We didn't think that somehow 1273 01:14:39,720 --> 01:14:44,840 Speaker 2: you could placate people through this, which was an absolutely 1274 01:14:45,200 --> 01:14:50,799 Speaker 2: nuts thing to do. Placation was a terrible idea, terrible 1275 01:14:50,800 --> 01:14:53,479 Speaker 2: from Scott Besson, the Treasury secretary, Terrible from the president. 1276 01:14:54,320 --> 01:14:58,120 Speaker 2: Placating is what Janet Yellen did, the former Treasury secretary, 1277 01:14:58,479 --> 01:15:04,559 Speaker 2: by telling us that was transitory. Oh holy hell. So 1278 01:15:04,640 --> 01:15:07,560 Speaker 2: these things, these price things, and the removal of tariffs 1279 01:15:07,560 --> 01:15:11,759 Speaker 2: on coffee and beef, very very valuable, very very smart. 1280 01:15:12,680 --> 01:15:17,840 Speaker 2: More moves on that matter greatly. As for Epstein, Republicans 1281 01:15:17,880 --> 01:15:19,639 Speaker 2: are going to say, listen, we're going to call the vote, 1282 01:15:19,640 --> 01:15:21,400 Speaker 2: but there's some things that we do have to concern 1283 01:15:21,439 --> 01:15:22,080 Speaker 2: ourselves with. 1284 01:15:22,640 --> 01:15:26,400 Speaker 4: And they are right, they are absolutely right. 1285 01:15:26,920 --> 01:15:31,320 Speaker 2: Specifically, if you'd engauge a discharge petition, So a discharge 1286 01:15:31,360 --> 01:15:34,479 Speaker 2: petition is a way of getting around the standards of 1287 01:15:34,479 --> 01:15:37,360 Speaker 2: the House and bringing something to the floor for a vote. 1288 01:15:38,560 --> 01:15:42,400 Speaker 4: If you do this and you just release. 1289 01:15:42,240 --> 01:15:46,160 Speaker 2: Everything willy nilly, what happens when you release the wrong information? 1290 01:15:46,800 --> 01:15:52,200 Speaker 2: What happens when you release names of potential victims? What 1291 01:15:52,280 --> 01:15:55,120 Speaker 2: about their privacy? What if you release names of people 1292 01:15:55,120 --> 01:15:58,000 Speaker 2: and all of a sudden, they're being called child molesters 1293 01:15:58,000 --> 01:16:02,080 Speaker 2: when they did nothing wrong. The release of the files 1294 01:16:02,160 --> 01:16:05,320 Speaker 2: is something I have stated I want, I do want. 1295 01:16:05,680 --> 01:16:08,280 Speaker 2: I want people who abuse children to go to jail, 1296 01:16:08,640 --> 01:16:14,519 Speaker 2: and to go to jail forever. But just because somebody 1297 01:16:14,560 --> 01:16:16,519 Speaker 2: is named in these files or in these papers and 1298 01:16:16,640 --> 01:16:19,960 Speaker 2: these emails doesn't mean they did anything wrong. It's like 1299 01:16:20,040 --> 01:16:22,240 Speaker 2: the whole thing with Trump. Trump's going to be named 1300 01:16:22,320 --> 01:16:26,679 Speaker 2: nineteen billion times. What the bloody heck does that matter. 1301 01:16:27,560 --> 01:16:30,439 Speaker 2: The only thing that matters is whether or not Trump 1302 01:16:30,560 --> 01:16:36,040 Speaker 2: was involved in the abuse of children, and that doesn't 1303 01:16:36,080 --> 01:16:39,559 Speaker 2: seem to be the case at all. And when I 1304 01:16:39,720 --> 01:16:46,280 Speaker 2: see that what's his name, Larry Summers is all apologetic, 1305 01:16:46,360 --> 01:16:51,320 Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, I shouldn't have been communicating with Jeffrey 1306 01:16:51,320 --> 01:16:58,400 Speaker 2: Epstein for all of those years. Well, is that right? 1307 01:16:59,240 --> 01:17:03,400 Speaker 2: You shouldn't have been talking to this creep, freak loser for. 1308 01:17:03,439 --> 01:17:04,479 Speaker 4: All of those years. 1309 01:17:04,880 --> 01:17:06,000 Speaker 2: What gave it away? 1310 01:17:07,040 --> 01:17:08,880 Speaker 4: What gave it away? 1311 01:17:09,640 --> 01:17:16,040 Speaker 2: Democrats are in this, and not every Democrat is guilty 1312 01:17:16,160 --> 01:17:20,840 Speaker 2: because they're in it. But I believe in its release 1313 01:17:20,920 --> 01:17:24,960 Speaker 2: to the very best of our ability. I believe that 1314 01:17:25,040 --> 01:17:30,600 Speaker 2: we should engage the release as much as humanly possible. 1315 01:17:32,439 --> 01:17:39,559 Speaker 2: We should not engage a standard discharge petition that does 1316 01:17:39,640 --> 01:17:46,320 Speaker 2: not have protections. That's really dumb, guys, that's a bad idea. 1317 01:17:46,400 --> 01:17:49,280 Speaker 2: If I check out the New York Post, a House 1318 01:17:49,320 --> 01:17:52,080 Speaker 2: dem pushing for release of full Epstein files predicts contents 1319 01:17:52,120 --> 01:17:54,320 Speaker 2: will shock the conscience of this country. 1320 01:17:54,360 --> 01:17:55,080 Speaker 4: That's roight, Khanna. 1321 01:17:55,360 --> 01:17:58,840 Speaker 2: I'm not saying, no representative, Kahanna, I'm agreeing with you 1322 01:17:59,160 --> 01:18:01,519 Speaker 2: that I am. I am there that what we're going 1323 01:18:01,560 --> 01:18:06,240 Speaker 2: to see we won't actually believe based on everything I 1324 01:18:06,320 --> 01:18:08,639 Speaker 2: know about this, and I'm not saying I know anything 1325 01:18:08,880 --> 01:18:12,519 Speaker 2: that's necessarily differently than you do. What I'm saying is, 1326 01:18:12,720 --> 01:18:17,360 Speaker 2: if we are not protective of names who did nothing wrong, 1327 01:18:17,840 --> 01:18:20,479 Speaker 2: there's a woman who's gonna be listed in here who's 1328 01:18:20,479 --> 01:18:23,240 Speaker 2: a victim. Maybe she doesn't want to be outed. There 1329 01:18:23,240 --> 01:18:25,320 Speaker 2: are some women you know that at press conference today 1330 01:18:25,720 --> 01:18:28,280 Speaker 2: and we want this and you got you gotta put 1331 01:18:28,280 --> 01:18:29,160 Speaker 2: out this information. 1332 01:18:29,280 --> 01:18:33,080 Speaker 4: We must have this. There's someone we're gonna be like. 1333 01:18:33,080 --> 01:18:36,439 Speaker 2: No, that part of my life was there, and I 1334 01:18:36,479 --> 01:18:38,280 Speaker 2: have dealt with it, and I deal with it in 1335 01:18:38,280 --> 01:18:40,080 Speaker 2: my own way, and I don't need to be outed, 1336 01:18:40,120 --> 01:18:42,439 Speaker 2: and I don't want to answer questions about it. Am 1337 01:18:42,479 --> 01:18:45,240 Speaker 2: I gonna tell that woman she's wrong. I'm gonna tell 1338 01:18:45,240 --> 01:18:48,960 Speaker 2: that woman somehow she's she's weak or or not taking 1339 01:18:48,960 --> 01:18:49,640 Speaker 2: this seriously. 1340 01:18:49,680 --> 01:18:50,160 Speaker 3: All hell. 1341 01:18:50,280 --> 01:18:53,439 Speaker 2: No, I'm not having that conversation with anybody. And if 1342 01:18:53,439 --> 01:18:55,960 Speaker 2: someone is gonna have that conversation, I just want to 1343 01:18:55,960 --> 01:18:58,479 Speaker 2: be front row with a bourbon some popcorn, just to 1344 01:18:58,520 --> 01:19:02,720 Speaker 2: see what happens. Telling somebody how they should deal with 1345 01:19:02,760 --> 01:19:06,360 Speaker 2: things is something special. And when I say special, I 1346 01:19:06,439 --> 01:19:11,519 Speaker 2: mean insane. So I don't know how it's going to 1347 01:19:11,600 --> 01:19:16,200 Speaker 2: go down, but I am concerned that they are going 1348 01:19:16,240 --> 01:19:21,360 Speaker 2: to release information without focus. And when you do that, 1349 01:19:22,640 --> 01:19:25,680 Speaker 2: when you release information without focus, when you release it 1350 01:19:25,720 --> 01:19:31,320 Speaker 2: without levels of protections, what you are opening up. I'm 1351 01:19:31,320 --> 01:19:33,680 Speaker 2: not saying that all of it's going to be a problem. 1352 01:19:34,040 --> 01:19:37,000 Speaker 2: I am saying that some of it may destroy lives 1353 01:19:37,200 --> 01:19:41,719 Speaker 2: that don't deserve it. And we should just be clear 1354 01:19:41,800 --> 01:19:46,400 Speaker 2: about this. We are here, we are at the precipice. 1355 01:19:46,560 --> 01:19:48,839 Speaker 2: I have asked for this, you have asked for this. 1356 01:19:48,840 --> 01:19:50,920 Speaker 2: This is the right thing to do. And as I've 1357 01:19:50,920 --> 01:19:55,200 Speaker 2: been discussing that Trump is now in favor of the release, 1358 01:19:56,600 --> 01:20:01,960 Speaker 2: you absolutely understand ten thousand percent. And to understand that 1359 01:20:02,040 --> 01:20:04,800 Speaker 2: what happened here is that Trump went along with the Republicans. 1360 01:20:06,080 --> 01:20:09,400 Speaker 2: Trump saw the writing on the wall. He pushed and 1361 01:20:09,520 --> 01:20:15,439 Speaker 2: pushed and pushed and pushed for this not to be 1362 01:20:16,080 --> 01:20:18,760 Speaker 2: a thing. Why are you paying attention to this doesn't matter. 1363 01:20:18,760 --> 01:20:22,360 Speaker 2: It's all Democrat hoax. He had it wrong, as we 1364 01:20:22,479 --> 01:20:25,280 Speaker 2: said it. Then it was a swing and a miss 1365 01:20:25,680 --> 01:20:29,920 Speaker 2: from the president. He had it wrong. And then you 1366 01:20:29,960 --> 01:20:32,880 Speaker 2: had all these people on the political right, the so 1367 01:20:33,000 --> 01:20:33,880 Speaker 2: called influencers. 1368 01:20:33,920 --> 01:20:35,439 Speaker 4: President Trump just wants to talking about this. 1369 01:20:35,520 --> 01:20:37,799 Speaker 2: Yes, it's a distraction, whatever he wants, it's a distraction. 1370 01:20:38,080 --> 01:20:43,040 Speaker 2: The hell it's a distraction. We voted for this. Don't 1371 01:20:43,040 --> 01:20:46,400 Speaker 2: you tell us, so called influencers on the right what 1372 01:20:46,439 --> 01:20:48,759 Speaker 2: we voted for. You ain't in charge of a holy 1373 01:20:48,840 --> 01:20:52,200 Speaker 2: damn thing. I only hope it's taught you the greatest lesson. 1374 01:20:52,560 --> 01:20:57,400 Speaker 2: Sit down, the people decide. Remember when the conservatives came 1375 01:20:57,400 --> 01:21:00,200 Speaker 2: out and said in twenty sixteen, you can't vote for Trump, 1376 01:21:00,320 --> 01:21:02,559 Speaker 2: he's not a real conservative. And they signed these letters 1377 01:21:02,560 --> 01:21:04,320 Speaker 2: and they put out their missives. You know what, the 1378 01:21:04,360 --> 01:21:08,360 Speaker 2: people said, kiss off, We'll vote for whoever we want. 1379 01:21:09,600 --> 01:21:11,800 Speaker 4: And now so many of them are I was with 1380 01:21:11,840 --> 01:21:13,120 Speaker 4: Trump the whole time. 1381 01:21:12,920 --> 01:21:14,960 Speaker 2: And everything else. It would have been better if you've 1382 01:21:15,000 --> 01:21:17,080 Speaker 2: just been honest about Trump. Yeah, I got real worries 1383 01:21:17,120 --> 01:21:20,719 Speaker 2: and real trepidation, real concerns about him in the first term. 1384 01:21:21,200 --> 01:21:23,679 Speaker 2: But there's Hillary, and with Trump, I have a fifty 1385 01:21:23,720 --> 01:21:25,559 Speaker 2: to fifty shot of getting what I want. With Hillary, 1386 01:21:25,600 --> 01:21:27,800 Speaker 2: I have no shot, which is exactly what was said 1387 01:21:27,840 --> 01:21:30,680 Speaker 2: on this show. Well, actually I wasn't even this show 1388 01:21:30,720 --> 01:21:32,760 Speaker 2: at the time. It was my other show, my morning show. 1389 01:21:33,680 --> 01:21:35,760 Speaker 4: Trump. I have a fifty to fifty shot Hillary, I 1390 01:21:35,760 --> 01:21:36,200 Speaker 4: have no shot. 1391 01:21:36,240 --> 01:21:40,000 Speaker 2: I'm going with the odds. That's what the rational person does, 1392 01:21:41,800 --> 01:21:45,480 Speaker 2: and that's how we need to engage this. These influencers 1393 01:21:45,479 --> 01:21:47,320 Speaker 2: and everybody else who think that because they say it, 1394 01:21:47,360 --> 01:21:48,160 Speaker 2: you have to believe it. 1395 01:21:48,360 --> 01:21:49,160 Speaker 4: Horsecrap. 1396 01:21:49,880 --> 01:21:52,880 Speaker 2: You're smarter than them, you know better than them, because 1397 01:21:52,920 --> 01:21:54,800 Speaker 2: you know what it is you're looking for. And if 1398 01:21:54,800 --> 01:21:56,600 Speaker 2: they make an argument, you're like, you know what, I 1399 01:21:56,800 --> 01:21:57,639 Speaker 2: agree with that argument. 1400 01:21:57,680 --> 01:21:58,240 Speaker 4: That's one thing. 1401 01:21:58,880 --> 01:22:01,320 Speaker 2: But they're saying, we've said so you have to believe it. Oh, 1402 01:22:01,479 --> 01:22:06,000 Speaker 2: screw that, And that's what the president saw that. You said, 1403 01:22:06,400 --> 01:22:10,200 Speaker 2: screw that. Not paying attention to these people, I want 1404 01:22:10,240 --> 01:22:14,080 Speaker 2: the data, kitten, What did Epstein do who was on 1405 01:22:14,120 --> 01:22:14,599 Speaker 2: the island. 1406 01:22:14,720 --> 01:22:16,559 Speaker 4: Who needs to go to jail? When do they go 1407 01:22:16,600 --> 01:22:17,000 Speaker 4: to jail? 1408 01:22:17,160 --> 01:22:19,320 Speaker 2: And do I get to slap the cuffs on the 1409 01:22:19,360 --> 01:22:24,080 Speaker 2: guy or anybody else? But you can't just release information, 1410 01:22:24,160 --> 01:22:28,360 Speaker 2: Willy Nelly Man. We don't engage protections. There's gonna be 1411 01:22:28,360 --> 01:22:31,400 Speaker 2: a lot of regret and a lot of lives hurt 1412 01:22:31,439 --> 01:22:34,800 Speaker 2: for no reason whatsoever, and that we should not abide. 1413 01:22:35,200 --> 01:22:36,000 Speaker 4: I'm Tony Kats. 1414 01:22:36,040 --> 01:22:39,360 Speaker 2: This is Tony Kats today. So this cloud Flare outage 1415 01:22:39,360 --> 01:22:41,400 Speaker 2: today was a real issue for people on Twitter or 1416 01:22:41,400 --> 01:22:44,920 Speaker 2: on Zoom or anybody trying to engage in actual commerce. 1417 01:22:45,080 --> 01:22:47,760 Speaker 2: Tony Kats, Tony Kats today, Good to be with you. 1418 01:22:48,200 --> 01:22:51,360 Speaker 2: That's real disruption, and we saw a disruption. I want 1419 01:22:51,360 --> 01:22:53,599 Speaker 2: to say it was a year ago when Delta went 1420 01:22:53,680 --> 01:22:56,640 Speaker 2: down and all the airports had the issues. Well what 1421 01:22:56,880 --> 01:22:57,400 Speaker 2: caused that? 1422 01:22:57,680 --> 01:22:58,280 Speaker 4: This time? 1423 01:22:58,439 --> 01:23:01,640 Speaker 2: It's a group called cloud fla where you see this 1424 01:23:01,720 --> 01:23:03,639 Speaker 2: all the time. You got to click a little box 1425 01:23:03,680 --> 01:23:05,360 Speaker 2: and get to the website. 1426 01:23:05,720 --> 01:23:07,120 Speaker 4: I'm not quite sure what it does. 1427 01:23:07,560 --> 01:23:10,439 Speaker 2: I'm not quite sure why everybody needs it, certainly elon 1428 01:23:10,560 --> 01:23:13,919 Speaker 2: musk over at X. But every time there's an issue 1429 01:23:13,960 --> 01:23:17,120 Speaker 2: like this, you gotta wonder what kind of damage is 1430 01:23:17,160 --> 01:23:21,040 Speaker 2: being done not only to commerce, but to the company. 1431 01:23:21,400 --> 01:23:25,320 Speaker 2: Doctor Marcus Rodgers joins me right now, Professor, Associate Dean 1432 01:23:25,400 --> 01:23:29,200 Speaker 2: of Faculty in the director of the cyber Forensics Lab 1433 01:23:29,439 --> 01:23:33,360 Speaker 2: at Purdue Polytechnic Institute at Purdue University, right here in 1434 01:23:33,400 --> 01:23:36,719 Speaker 2: my beloved Indiana, not too far up the road. And sir, 1435 01:23:36,960 --> 01:23:38,920 Speaker 2: I think we start with a basic I appreciate you 1436 01:23:38,920 --> 01:23:39,559 Speaker 2: taking the time. 1437 01:23:39,920 --> 01:23:41,519 Speaker 4: What in the world is cloud Flair? 1438 01:23:42,520 --> 01:23:45,840 Speaker 26: Club Flair is a large company. They look after the 1439 01:23:45,880 --> 01:23:50,040 Speaker 26: security component, so their main thing is security. So when 1440 01:23:50,080 --> 01:23:52,360 Speaker 26: we talk about why all these companies have that is 1441 01:23:52,360 --> 01:23:55,839 Speaker 26: because all these companies require security, so they help secure 1442 01:23:55,880 --> 01:24:00,639 Speaker 26: these companies from attacks. And as ironic as if they're 1443 01:24:00,680 --> 01:24:04,200 Speaker 26: supposed to protect companies from outages, which in this case 1444 01:24:04,479 --> 01:24:06,720 Speaker 26: they seem to be the one that caused it. So, 1445 01:24:06,760 --> 01:24:10,040 Speaker 26: like I said, they're probably one of the largest security 1446 01:24:10,080 --> 01:24:13,519 Speaker 26: companies in the world, and pretty much every large company 1447 01:24:13,920 --> 01:24:16,880 Speaker 26: has cloud Flare in their environment. 1448 01:24:17,240 --> 01:24:18,719 Speaker 3: How do I. 1449 01:24:18,640 --> 01:24:20,840 Speaker 2: Always hear about in the world of cyber and the 1450 01:24:20,840 --> 01:24:25,040 Speaker 2: world of tech redundancies and having different ways of doing things. 1451 01:24:25,240 --> 01:24:27,880 Speaker 2: Does it make sense that one company has so much 1452 01:24:28,000 --> 01:24:28,719 Speaker 2: of the space. 1453 01:24:29,600 --> 01:24:32,000 Speaker 26: No, And this is one of the problems that we 1454 01:24:32,080 --> 01:24:35,559 Speaker 26: in the security industry warned against way back. You look 1455 01:24:35,640 --> 01:24:39,120 Speaker 26: at we're dealing with what's something called a single point 1456 01:24:39,120 --> 01:24:40,439 Speaker 26: of failure problem right now. 1457 01:24:40,760 --> 01:24:41,760 Speaker 9: When these large. 1458 01:24:41,520 --> 01:24:46,200 Speaker 26: Companies basically become so big, so ubiquitous that everybody uses 1459 01:24:46,200 --> 01:24:48,960 Speaker 26: them and there's no other choices, then you have single 1460 01:24:48,960 --> 01:24:51,559 Speaker 26: points of failure. So if that company happens to have 1461 01:24:51,600 --> 01:24:55,280 Speaker 26: a problem, then it affects almost everybody in all. 1462 01:24:55,240 --> 01:24:56,200 Speaker 9: The largest companies. 1463 01:24:56,320 --> 01:24:58,519 Speaker 26: We saw this with Amazon a few weeks ago when 1464 01:24:58,520 --> 01:25:01,880 Speaker 26: Amazon Aws went down, because they're the one of the 1465 01:25:01,960 --> 01:25:05,360 Speaker 26: largest cloud providers out there, they were a single point 1466 01:25:05,360 --> 01:25:05,799 Speaker 26: of failure. 1467 01:25:05,840 --> 01:25:07,880 Speaker 9: So this is now a big issue. 1468 01:25:08,040 --> 01:25:10,120 Speaker 26: You really don't have to go out now and attack 1469 01:25:10,320 --> 01:25:13,639 Speaker 26: multiple companies to cause problems. You only have to attack 1470 01:25:13,720 --> 01:25:16,439 Speaker 26: one of these large single points of failure, and the 1471 01:25:16,560 --> 01:25:17,839 Speaker 26: entire Internet's impacted. 1472 01:25:18,360 --> 01:25:21,920 Speaker 2: Talking to a doctor Marcus Rogers, Professor, Associate deed for 1473 01:25:22,040 --> 01:25:26,360 Speaker 2: Faculty and director of the cyber Forensics Lab at Purdue 1474 01:25:26,360 --> 01:25:31,080 Speaker 2: Polytechnic Institute at Purdue University, is this the same thing 1475 01:25:31,120 --> 01:25:33,160 Speaker 2: that happened to I brought up Delta, which I think 1476 01:25:33,200 --> 01:25:34,920 Speaker 2: was about a year ago. Is this the same group 1477 01:25:35,040 --> 01:25:38,439 Speaker 2: or was that a different group of same concept same group. 1478 01:25:38,760 --> 01:25:42,559 Speaker 9: Oh yeah, it's the same group. And again because they 1479 01:25:42,800 --> 01:25:44,840 Speaker 9: are literally so big. 1480 01:25:45,360 --> 01:25:49,519 Speaker 2: So what is it in this case today with the outage? 1481 01:25:49,920 --> 01:25:51,760 Speaker 2: What is it that caused the outage? 1482 01:25:51,920 --> 01:25:54,639 Speaker 9: Well, we'll never know for sure according to. 1483 01:25:54,920 --> 01:25:57,280 Speaker 4: What you're making a conspiratorial sir. 1484 01:25:57,680 --> 01:25:59,840 Speaker 9: Yeah, it was. It was a single it was. 1485 01:26:00,320 --> 01:26:06,240 Speaker 26: They claim it was a misconfiguration, which obviously that's the 1486 01:26:06,280 --> 01:26:09,519 Speaker 26: excuse that every company has when something happens. They're very 1487 01:26:09,600 --> 01:26:11,960 Speaker 26: quick to say that it wasn't an attack from the outside, 1488 01:26:12,280 --> 01:26:15,160 Speaker 26: that it wasn't anything that was, you know, a type 1489 01:26:15,200 --> 01:26:19,560 Speaker 26: of cyber terrorism. They claimed that it was a misconfiguration internally, 1490 01:26:19,840 --> 01:26:20,960 Speaker 26: which is what every. 1491 01:26:20,800 --> 01:26:22,080 Speaker 9: Company says when this happens. 1492 01:26:22,120 --> 01:26:24,000 Speaker 26: So this is part of the problem when you're looking 1493 01:26:24,040 --> 01:26:26,960 Speaker 26: at it from the outside, is we never really know 1494 01:26:27,120 --> 01:26:29,840 Speaker 26: what really happened. We only know what the company wants 1495 01:26:29,880 --> 01:26:30,679 Speaker 26: the world to hear. 1496 01:26:31,360 --> 01:26:33,559 Speaker 4: Are any of these companies, sir? 1497 01:26:33,640 --> 01:26:36,000 Speaker 2: Are any of them like subject to for example, when 1498 01:26:36,040 --> 01:26:38,720 Speaker 2: the NFL puts out an injury report, right and this 1499 01:26:38,800 --> 01:26:41,719 Speaker 2: person's out and this person's injured. If you lie about 1500 01:26:41,760 --> 01:26:45,800 Speaker 2: that stuff, the fines are pretty dang severe. Are there 1501 01:26:45,960 --> 01:26:48,639 Speaker 2: is there anything like that that we have in terms 1502 01:26:48,640 --> 01:26:50,880 Speaker 2: of whether it's government overside or something else I assume 1503 01:26:50,880 --> 01:26:53,920 Speaker 2: would be government oversite that checks in on Wait, did 1504 01:26:53,920 --> 01:26:55,320 Speaker 2: you really not get attacked? 1505 01:26:56,320 --> 01:26:59,599 Speaker 9: Well no, especially not in in the US. 1506 01:27:00,080 --> 01:27:02,439 Speaker 26: In the EU they have a little bit of a 1507 01:27:02,479 --> 01:27:07,599 Speaker 26: different structure for basically looking at oversight. 1508 01:27:08,000 --> 01:27:11,040 Speaker 9: And what they do with that. In the US, absolutely not. 1509 01:27:11,680 --> 01:27:13,720 Speaker 26: And I'm not saying I wasn't a misconfiguration, but the 1510 01:27:13,760 --> 01:27:14,240 Speaker 26: point is. 1511 01:27:14,200 --> 01:27:15,040 Speaker 9: There really is. 1512 01:27:15,360 --> 01:27:15,519 Speaker 5: No. 1513 01:27:17,320 --> 01:27:18,599 Speaker 9: They really do not have. 1514 01:27:18,520 --> 01:27:21,599 Speaker 26: To be transparent in what causes because they'll claim there's 1515 01:27:21,640 --> 01:27:24,400 Speaker 26: all kinds of issues about intellectual property and things like that. 1516 01:27:24,600 --> 01:27:28,080 Speaker 26: What I always find kind of very interesting when these 1517 01:27:28,080 --> 01:27:31,880 Speaker 26: companies claim it was a misconfiguration. Well, you're such a 1518 01:27:31,920 --> 01:27:36,599 Speaker 26: large company, how could one misconfiguration take everything down? Aren't 1519 01:27:36,640 --> 01:27:39,479 Speaker 26: you supposed to have single you know, have redundancy, not 1520 01:27:39,600 --> 01:27:41,680 Speaker 26: have these single points. So I'm always a little bit 1521 01:27:41,720 --> 01:27:45,799 Speaker 26: suspicious when oh, it was just one line of code, 1522 01:27:45,800 --> 01:27:48,559 Speaker 26: that's like, wow, that's not a very good coded program 1523 01:27:48,560 --> 01:27:50,280 Speaker 26: if that's one line of code took. 1524 01:27:50,120 --> 01:27:51,160 Speaker 9: Down the entire Internet. 1525 01:27:51,320 --> 01:27:54,719 Speaker 2: Talking to doctor Marcus Rogers, the director of the cyber 1526 01:27:54,800 --> 01:27:58,360 Speaker 2: Forensics Lab at Ford Polytechnic against you of Purdue University. 1527 01:27:58,520 --> 01:27:59,760 Speaker 2: I don't know you, So this is the first time 1528 01:27:59,760 --> 01:28:02,360 Speaker 2: we've first time we're speaking, But I think I'm a 1529 01:28:02,400 --> 01:28:04,320 Speaker 2: pretty good read on people. 1530 01:28:04,960 --> 01:28:09,040 Speaker 4: You sound angry, I'm frustrated. Let me let me say 1531 01:28:09,080 --> 01:28:10,200 Speaker 4: it this way, like. 1532 01:28:10,320 --> 01:28:12,320 Speaker 2: Dear Lord, how many more of these are we going 1533 01:28:12,400 --> 01:28:15,240 Speaker 2: to witness before we do something? So what is your 1534 01:28:15,320 --> 01:28:19,200 Speaker 2: suggestion about what it is we as the internet surfing 1535 01:28:19,439 --> 01:28:20,719 Speaker 2: populace do. 1536 01:28:21,520 --> 01:28:24,320 Speaker 26: And this is where we as And I'm not so 1537 01:28:24,400 --> 01:28:28,160 Speaker 26: much angry as frustrated because obviously, you know, I'm trying 1538 01:28:28,160 --> 01:28:30,400 Speaker 26: to get on board online to do stuff this morning. 1539 01:28:30,439 --> 01:28:32,919 Speaker 26: We're trying to do things and it just impacts everybody. 1540 01:28:32,920 --> 01:28:34,120 Speaker 26: So it's more of a frustration. 1541 01:28:35,000 --> 01:28:37,400 Speaker 9: You know, I understand. You know, these companies have a 1542 01:28:37,439 --> 01:28:39,240 Speaker 9: business and it's not you know, if they want to 1543 01:28:39,280 --> 01:28:41,240 Speaker 9: be monopoly and do that, we let them do that. 1544 01:28:41,400 --> 01:28:44,320 Speaker 9: That's that's on us. So we as the consumers really 1545 01:28:44,360 --> 01:28:45,839 Speaker 9: don't have a lot of power with this. 1546 01:28:45,840 --> 01:28:47,960 Speaker 26: This is really something as much as I hate to 1547 01:28:48,040 --> 01:28:51,520 Speaker 26: use the R word, there has to be some regulations 1548 01:28:51,560 --> 01:28:54,360 Speaker 26: out there that basically say, when this happens, there has 1549 01:28:54,400 --> 01:28:58,240 Speaker 26: to be transparency. We cannot allow for one company to 1550 01:28:58,360 --> 01:29:01,320 Speaker 26: basically be so large that it takes There's got to 1551 01:29:01,320 --> 01:29:04,160 Speaker 26: be some competitional. Their competition is healthy, and we don't 1552 01:29:04,200 --> 01:29:06,320 Speaker 26: have that right now with the internet. 1553 01:29:06,439 --> 01:29:09,360 Speaker 2: The idea of regulations where you step into my world 1554 01:29:09,360 --> 01:29:13,840 Speaker 2: in al ways where I have a massive amount of recoil. 1555 01:29:14,439 --> 01:29:18,840 Speaker 2: Do you see this as a national security issue or 1556 01:29:19,160 --> 01:29:21,080 Speaker 2: or I mean, can you see it as a national 1557 01:29:21,120 --> 01:29:24,320 Speaker 2: security issue? Or is it much more of a this 1558 01:29:24,479 --> 01:29:26,440 Speaker 2: is just bad for business issue. 1559 01:29:26,720 --> 01:29:29,000 Speaker 26: It's actually both, because I tear right now a lot 1560 01:29:29,040 --> 01:29:30,760 Speaker 26: of what you're seeing out there, a lot of what 1561 01:29:30,800 --> 01:29:31,559 Speaker 26: we're dealing with. 1562 01:29:31,960 --> 01:29:35,760 Speaker 9: As you know, the regular Joe public, our government is 1563 01:29:35,800 --> 01:29:37,960 Speaker 9: in the same boat. It's the same Internet, and quite. 1564 01:29:37,840 --> 01:29:41,400 Speaker 26: Often they are contracting with the exact same companies. Now, yes, 1565 01:29:41,560 --> 01:29:44,599 Speaker 26: there are there are some secure networks that the Department 1566 01:29:44,640 --> 01:29:46,719 Speaker 26: of Defense have, but for the most part, the government 1567 01:29:46,760 --> 01:29:48,360 Speaker 26: is running on the same internet you and I. 1568 01:29:48,320 --> 01:29:48,840 Speaker 9: Are running on. 1569 01:29:49,200 --> 01:29:51,880 Speaker 26: So a outage like this not just only affects us 1570 01:29:51,960 --> 01:29:54,880 Speaker 26: to get on Zoom. It can affect basically the lawmakers. 1571 01:29:54,920 --> 01:29:57,880 Speaker 26: It can affect the government agencies. It can affect we 1572 01:29:57,920 --> 01:30:00,599 Speaker 26: saw that, you know, effects the airlines. It can affect 1573 01:30:00,640 --> 01:30:03,680 Speaker 26: a lot of our critical infrastructure, and that makes it 1574 01:30:03,760 --> 01:30:05,480 Speaker 26: a national security issue. 1575 01:30:06,200 --> 01:30:10,880 Speaker 2: Before I let you go, doctor Marcus Rogers, director of 1576 01:30:10,880 --> 01:30:15,479 Speaker 2: the cyber Forensics Lab at Purdue Bali Technique Institute there 1577 01:30:15,600 --> 01:30:20,439 Speaker 2: at Purdue University. For any smaller groups using cloud fair, 1578 01:30:20,479 --> 01:30:23,839 Speaker 2: what's your immediate suggestion cloud flair? Sorry, what's your immediate suggestion? 1579 01:30:25,080 --> 01:30:28,160 Speaker 26: Have some patience because quite often if you're using these 1580 01:30:28,360 --> 01:30:30,640 Speaker 26: and to be quote ninety nine point nine percent of 1581 01:30:30,680 --> 01:30:33,720 Speaker 26: the time it is they're not having a problem. It's 1582 01:30:33,840 --> 01:30:37,240 Speaker 26: that one percent that causes us all the you know, 1583 01:30:37,360 --> 01:30:40,200 Speaker 26: all the inks. So right now, because you really don't 1584 01:30:40,200 --> 01:30:42,400 Speaker 26: have a choice, it's not the consumer can go and 1585 01:30:42,400 --> 01:30:45,280 Speaker 26: say I don't want to use If whoever your backbone 1586 01:30:45,320 --> 01:30:48,400 Speaker 26: is attached to is using cloud Flare, you're using cloud Flare, 1587 01:30:48,760 --> 01:30:50,840 Speaker 26: So we really don't have a choice. But like I said, 1588 01:30:50,920 --> 01:30:54,080 Speaker 26: it's just a matter of I think, being informed consumers 1589 01:30:54,120 --> 01:30:58,280 Speaker 26: and maybe kind of letting our frustration be a little 1590 01:30:58,280 --> 01:31:01,320 Speaker 26: bit more evident to the lawmakers that hey, this really 1591 01:31:01,360 --> 01:31:03,719 Speaker 26: can't keep going on like this, because here, right now, 1592 01:31:03,760 --> 01:31:05,840 Speaker 26: this isn't the end of it. We are going to 1593 01:31:05,880 --> 01:31:08,360 Speaker 26: see more and more of these single points of failures 1594 01:31:08,640 --> 01:31:12,040 Speaker 26: and in the coming years, because we're hitting a almost 1595 01:31:12,080 --> 01:31:16,040 Speaker 26: a threshold or a turning point where we have so 1596 01:31:16,200 --> 01:31:19,000 Speaker 26: much traffic. We have so much going on, and it's 1597 01:31:19,040 --> 01:31:22,120 Speaker 26: so complicated. These things are going to continue to happen 1598 01:31:22,200 --> 01:31:23,519 Speaker 26: unless we do something about it. 1599 01:31:23,800 --> 01:31:25,920 Speaker 2: Tipping points, I believe, is the word. We're looking for it. 1600 01:31:25,960 --> 01:31:29,000 Speaker 2: Tipping point, That is it, Doctor Marcus Rogers. I just 1601 01:31:29,040 --> 01:31:30,680 Speaker 2: wanted to be as smart as a Professor. 1602 01:31:31,920 --> 01:31:32,759 Speaker 4: August Rogers. 1603 01:31:32,760 --> 01:31:34,519 Speaker 2: I appreciate it taking the time to be with us. 1604 01:31:34,840 --> 01:31:37,320 Speaker 2: More to get to I'm Tony Katz than this is 1605 01:31:37,360 --> 01:31:42,200 Speaker 2: Tony Katz today. So speaker Mike Johnson took to the 1606 01:31:42,240 --> 01:31:45,639 Speaker 2: podium talking about the Epstein files as I was earlier 1607 01:31:45,680 --> 01:31:48,160 Speaker 2: Tony Katz, Tony Katz today. It said first things first, 1608 01:31:48,560 --> 01:31:50,879 Speaker 2: you know, these Democrats are a bunch of lowly frauds. 1609 01:31:50,960 --> 01:31:53,400 Speaker 4: Right, These people are frauds. 1610 01:31:53,439 --> 01:31:55,760 Speaker 2: The only reason they care about the Epstein files is 1611 01:31:55,800 --> 01:31:58,080 Speaker 2: how they can get Trump. They don't actually care about 1612 01:31:58,080 --> 01:32:01,639 Speaker 2: these women. That is obvious and true. I would argue 1613 01:32:01,640 --> 01:32:04,120 Speaker 2: that is true for the vast majority. Certainly makes the 1614 01:32:04,120 --> 01:32:07,160 Speaker 2: party look bad. I think you can find individuals who 1615 01:32:07,200 --> 01:32:09,840 Speaker 2: are actually focused on Hey, I want this information out 1616 01:32:09,960 --> 01:32:11,280 Speaker 2: and I want people who need to be in jail 1617 01:32:11,320 --> 01:32:13,920 Speaker 2: in jail. I have to believe that does indeed exist 1618 01:32:14,479 --> 01:32:17,479 Speaker 2: in some cases. As a party, it is only about 1619 01:32:17,479 --> 01:32:19,479 Speaker 2: how they can hurt Trump. They don't care about these women. 1620 01:32:19,560 --> 01:32:23,000 Speaker 2: I would say that to anyone, and I just did. 1621 01:32:24,040 --> 01:32:27,440 Speaker 2: But Mike Johnson, the speaker, goes into a part two. 1622 01:32:27,880 --> 01:32:31,640 Speaker 2: This discharge petition idea is a bad idea. You're going 1623 01:32:31,720 --> 01:32:34,840 Speaker 2: to release everything. You're going to release information you don't 1624 01:32:34,840 --> 01:32:37,160 Speaker 2: want to release. You're going to release information. As I 1625 01:32:37,160 --> 01:32:40,080 Speaker 2: was discussing earlier, that you will regret. This was the 1626 01:32:40,120 --> 01:32:42,200 Speaker 2: speaker in his own words. 1627 01:32:42,479 --> 01:32:45,640 Speaker 20: Now, this was an unspeakable tragedy. We said that, and 1628 01:32:45,760 --> 01:32:49,360 Speaker 20: we have great compassion for the victims. And I'm heartened 1629 01:32:49,360 --> 01:32:52,360 Speaker 20: that I met with the victims or House Oversight Committee 1630 01:32:52,360 --> 01:32:54,840 Speaker 20: members met with the victims. And they deserve justice. It 1631 01:32:54,840 --> 01:32:58,360 Speaker 20: has been too long delayed, not just justice for what 1632 01:32:58,400 --> 01:33:01,200 Speaker 20: they were made to endure, but also we need answers 1633 01:33:01,200 --> 01:33:04,160 Speaker 20: on why it took so long for the Department of 1634 01:33:04,320 --> 01:33:09,480 Speaker 20: Justice itself to do that job under previous leadership. Republicans meanwhile, 1635 01:33:10,040 --> 01:33:13,479 Speaker 20: are working in earnest to deliver transparency to the American people, 1636 01:33:13,520 --> 01:33:16,360 Speaker 20: and we're working to do that in a responsible manner 1637 01:33:16,800 --> 01:33:19,760 Speaker 20: that does no further harm to these innocent people and 1638 01:33:19,800 --> 01:33:23,840 Speaker 20: the victims who have been wrapped into this. There are 1639 01:33:23,960 --> 01:33:26,400 Speaker 20: a few key facts here that everybody needs to understand. First, 1640 01:33:27,360 --> 01:33:29,760 Speaker 20: I mentioned the House Oversight Committee doing its work that 1641 01:33:29,880 --> 01:33:34,920 Speaker 20: is a bipartisan effort. They are already producing far more 1642 01:33:35,240 --> 01:33:39,559 Speaker 20: than the discharge petition even anticipates. Chairman Comer is our 1643 01:33:39,640 --> 01:33:42,639 Speaker 20: Chair of Oversight. Some of the biggest bulldogs in Congress 1644 01:33:42,640 --> 01:33:44,439 Speaker 20: served on that committee, you all know, and I've mentioned 1645 01:33:44,439 --> 01:33:46,839 Speaker 20: this so many times. They have been on the Republican 1646 01:33:46,840 --> 01:33:49,160 Speaker 20: and Democrat side. They're deeply dug in. They've been working 1647 01:33:49,200 --> 01:33:51,400 Speaker 20: around the clock. They worked even through the government shut down, 1648 01:33:51,400 --> 01:33:53,599 Speaker 20: and they were tranches of documents that were released even 1649 01:33:53,600 --> 01:33:56,320 Speaker 20: over that period. So far, by last count, it's over 1650 01:33:56,360 --> 01:33:59,479 Speaker 20: sixty five thousand documents Epstein file documents that are now 1651 01:33:59,520 --> 01:34:02,519 Speaker 20: out in the public for everyone to review. That includes 1652 01:34:02,600 --> 01:34:06,600 Speaker 20: tens of thousands of pages from the Epstein estate, And 1653 01:34:07,000 --> 01:34:11,879 Speaker 20: that includes Epstein's flight logs, his personal financial records and ledgers, 1654 01:34:12,720 --> 01:34:15,280 Speaker 20: his daily calendars, and so much more. And none of 1655 01:34:15,320 --> 01:34:19,680 Speaker 20: that is even written or included in the discharge petition. So, 1656 01:34:19,720 --> 01:34:21,800 Speaker 20: in other words, the Oversight Committee's doing far more than 1657 01:34:21,800 --> 01:34:25,200 Speaker 20: the discharge even anticipates, and the most valuable information thus 1658 01:34:25,200 --> 01:34:27,559 Speaker 20: far has come from the Epstein estate files. 1659 01:34:28,040 --> 01:34:30,760 Speaker 2: So that's an interesting way of saying our way, Well, 1660 01:34:30,800 --> 01:34:33,280 Speaker 2: AC should get you more information, but you just seem 1661 01:34:33,360 --> 01:34:36,559 Speaker 2: to be in a rush and careless, which is an 1662 01:34:36,560 --> 01:34:38,400 Speaker 2: interesting argument in and of itself. 1663 01:34:39,280 --> 01:34:41,000 Speaker 20: I brought a chart in here this morning. I do 1664 01:34:41,120 --> 01:34:44,080 Speaker 20: want to illustrate for you what we are concerned with now. 1665 01:34:44,120 --> 01:34:46,400 Speaker 20: I was a federal court litigator. The members of our 1666 01:34:46,439 --> 01:34:51,320 Speaker 20: House Judiciary Committee, Republicans in particular, have many of these concerns. 1667 01:34:51,320 --> 01:34:54,080 Speaker 20: You have Chairman Jim Jordan and attorneys like Chip Roy's 1668 01:34:54,120 --> 01:34:56,680 Speaker 20: running Attorney general of Texas. Now you have Radnaugh, who 1669 01:34:56,720 --> 01:34:59,760 Speaker 20: is a former federal prosecutor. Many members on the committee, 1670 01:35:00,120 --> 01:35:02,840 Speaker 20: Andy Biggs is running for governor of Arizona. They're lawyers, 1671 01:35:02,840 --> 01:35:05,479 Speaker 20: and they understand that the way the discharge position was 1672 01:35:05,560 --> 01:35:08,800 Speaker 20: drafted is haphazard and dangerous. This is why we have 1673 01:35:08,880 --> 01:35:11,479 Speaker 20: been opposed to this point. Okay, and I could be 1674 01:35:11,520 --> 01:35:13,360 Speaker 20: here for a long time going through all the details 1675 01:35:13,400 --> 01:35:15,640 Speaker 20: of it. But the big concern we've all had all 1676 01:35:15,640 --> 01:35:18,599 Speaker 20: along is at the House bill. If it's passing its 1677 01:35:18,640 --> 01:35:21,600 Speaker 20: current form and it was signed into law, it is 1678 01:35:21,680 --> 01:35:24,880 Speaker 20: dangerously flawed. And our problem, in our frustration is there 1679 01:35:24,960 --> 01:35:26,679 Speaker 20: is no way for us in the House to amend 1680 01:35:26,680 --> 01:35:29,720 Speaker 20: it or correct these problems because the authors of the 1681 01:35:29,760 --> 01:35:32,800 Speaker 20: discharge will not allow it. And that's one of our 1682 01:35:32,800 --> 01:35:36,800 Speaker 20: great frustrations. I mean, just very quickly, we have a 1683 01:35:36,880 --> 01:35:39,880 Speaker 20: legal document that the lawyers we have all drafted to 1684 01:35:40,080 --> 01:35:42,280 Speaker 20: explain all this. But let me give you quick, quick, 1685 01:35:42,400 --> 01:35:44,680 Speaker 20: five quick maybe the top five concerns about it, and 1686 01:35:44,720 --> 01:35:48,360 Speaker 20: there are more, But as drafted in the discharge petition, 1687 01:35:49,120 --> 01:35:52,000 Speaker 20: it fails to fully protect victim privacy. I'm going to 1688 01:35:52,000 --> 01:35:53,920 Speaker 20: read you an excerpt out of our legal document we 1689 01:35:53,960 --> 01:35:56,160 Speaker 20: put together to explain on this. Congress should give the 1690 01:35:56,160 --> 01:36:00,360 Speaker 20: Attorney General broader authority to redact all the victim information. 1691 01:36:00,720 --> 01:36:03,960 Speaker 20: The discharge doesn't do that. This would prevent the release 1692 01:36:03,960 --> 01:36:06,840 Speaker 20: of information that could be used to unmask victims who 1693 01:36:06,880 --> 01:36:09,880 Speaker 20: have chosen to remain anonymous. Now, you have some very 1694 01:36:09,920 --> 01:36:12,760 Speaker 20: brave women who have come forward and put their names 1695 01:36:12,760 --> 01:36:15,240 Speaker 20: and faces out there and done press conferences and explain 1696 01:36:15,320 --> 01:36:17,840 Speaker 20: that justice is overdue, and our hearts go out to them, 1697 01:36:17,840 --> 01:36:20,800 Speaker 20: and they are heroes. But you have as many as 1698 01:36:20,840 --> 01:36:24,240 Speaker 20: a thousand women, by some of the accounts, who may 1699 01:36:24,280 --> 01:36:27,120 Speaker 20: be caught up in this and the vast majority of 1700 01:36:27,160 --> 01:36:30,280 Speaker 20: them have not come forward, probably for obvious reasons. They 1701 01:36:30,280 --> 01:36:33,439 Speaker 20: don't want to be unmasked. But the discharge petition doesn't 1702 01:36:33,439 --> 01:36:38,200 Speaker 20: have adequate protections. It risks revictimizing those who were trafficked 1703 01:36:38,200 --> 01:36:38,920 Speaker 20: and exploited. 1704 01:36:39,520 --> 01:36:43,120 Speaker 2: That's absolutely correct, and it's kind of amazing that we're 1705 01:36:43,160 --> 01:36:46,320 Speaker 2: not taking that into account in this push to release them. 1706 01:36:46,520 --> 01:36:49,200 Speaker 2: I want them released. I haven't backtracked from my thoughts 1707 01:36:49,240 --> 01:36:51,800 Speaker 2: at all. The only thing that I ask is we 1708 01:36:51,920 --> 01:36:54,519 Speaker 2: do it with a bit of rationality, and that doesn't 1709 01:36:54,560 --> 01:36:58,080 Speaker 2: seem to be happening, which means Marjorie Taylor Green is wrong. 1710 01:36:58,439 --> 01:37:00,599 Speaker 2: I know she wants Cella Trump. I know she wants 1711 01:37:00,640 --> 01:37:03,800 Speaker 2: to call herself the true patriot. But dear Lord, I 1712 01:37:03,800 --> 01:37:07,679 Speaker 2: didn't say don't release I said don't engage the idea 1713 01:37:07,760 --> 01:37:10,200 Speaker 2: that somehow women want to be known for this. 1714 01:37:11,040 --> 01:37:13,160 Speaker 4: You're putting them out there, whether they like it or not. 1715 01:37:13,640 --> 01:37:18,040 Speaker 2: That's messed up, especially when you can do something about it. 1716 01:37:18,040 --> 01:37:21,400 Speaker 2: It's about being rational, it's about being aware that other 1717 01:37:21,400 --> 01:37:24,120 Speaker 2: people's lives and as as Speaker Johnson says it, and 1718 01:37:24,160 --> 01:37:26,719 Speaker 2: you would say it too, you're gonna victimize them twice, 1719 01:37:28,080 --> 01:37:31,920 Speaker 2: not give them a say twice, that's messed up stuff. 1720 01:37:32,120 --> 01:37:34,280 Speaker 20: And the courts have recognized this concern by the way 1721 01:37:34,280 --> 01:37:36,960 Speaker 20: I reached a quick excerpt. On August twentieth this year, 1722 01:37:37,439 --> 01:37:40,280 Speaker 20: Judge Richard Berman the Southern District of New York issued 1723 01:37:40,360 --> 01:37:44,160 Speaker 20: an order denying the DOJ's request to release Epstein grand 1724 01:37:44,240 --> 01:37:48,559 Speaker 20: jury materials, noting quote, names and identifying information of victims 1725 01:37:48,560 --> 01:37:52,400 Speaker 20: appear in the subject materials unquote. Judge Berman then quoted 1726 01:37:52,439 --> 01:37:57,240 Speaker 20: a letter related to victim's concerns, which stated the following, quote, 1727 01:37:57,320 --> 01:38:00,320 Speaker 20: transparency cannot come at the expense of the very people 1728 01:38:00,400 --> 01:38:04,480 Speaker 20: whom the justice system is sworn to protect unquote. And importantly, 1729 01:38:05,040 --> 01:38:07,680 Speaker 20: the judge quoted a letter from one of the victims 1730 01:38:08,200 --> 01:38:11,120 Speaker 20: in the proceedings. She is named as Jane Doe two. 1731 01:38:11,400 --> 01:38:13,839 Speaker 20: She said this, this is one of the victims. Quote. 1732 01:38:14,560 --> 01:38:18,120 Speaker 20: I beg the court to make sure it is of 1733 01:38:18,160 --> 01:38:21,920 Speaker 20: the utmost priority that in any sort of release, all 1734 01:38:22,000 --> 01:38:25,879 Speaker 20: and every detail that could possibly reveal our identities be redacted. 1735 01:38:26,840 --> 01:38:31,240 Speaker 20: The victims of Epstein's evils deserve that protection, and the 1736 01:38:31,280 --> 01:38:34,799 Speaker 20: discharge does not currently provide. Okay, number two. 1737 01:38:35,120 --> 01:38:37,559 Speaker 2: I don't actually think it gets clearer than that. I 1738 01:38:37,600 --> 01:38:40,840 Speaker 2: think that's a compelling argument, and I'd be kind of 1739 01:38:40,880 --> 01:38:44,000 Speaker 2: curious to hear who doesn't think it's compelling. But anyway, 1740 01:38:44,400 --> 01:38:47,639 Speaker 2: onto some of his other issues and House Republicans issues 1741 01:38:48,200 --> 01:38:51,080 Speaker 2: with just a discharge petition, which is a way of. 1742 01:38:51,080 --> 01:38:52,519 Speaker 4: Circumending the rules of the House. 1743 01:38:53,400 --> 01:38:55,559 Speaker 2: It's the House members all voting to say we want 1744 01:38:55,600 --> 01:38:58,000 Speaker 2: this brought to the floor, so it doesn't go through 1745 01:38:58,000 --> 01:39:00,000 Speaker 2: the normal rules of the House. It's called the discharge 1746 01:39:00,040 --> 01:39:02,799 Speaker 2: petition and would go directly to the floor for a vote. 1747 01:39:03,200 --> 01:39:06,080 Speaker 2: And that's what Speaker Johnson is concerned with here. 1748 01:39:06,520 --> 01:39:10,880 Speaker 20: The discharge petition could create new victims, okay, because it 1749 01:39:10,960 --> 01:39:14,920 Speaker 20: requires the DOJ to release information even in cases where 1750 01:39:14,960 --> 01:39:17,280 Speaker 20: the DOJ or the FBI has already reviewed it and 1751 01:39:17,360 --> 01:39:21,920 Speaker 20: determined it is not credible, it is false information. Doing 1752 01:39:22,000 --> 01:39:25,800 Speaker 20: this and requiring this to come out could ruin the 1753 01:39:25,800 --> 01:39:29,960 Speaker 20: reputations of completely innocent people, such as those who have 1754 01:39:30,400 --> 01:39:32,759 Speaker 20: may just have known Epstein but knew nothing of his crimes, 1755 01:39:33,000 --> 01:39:36,839 Speaker 20: or whose names he exploited. Think of this innocent people 1756 01:39:37,200 --> 01:39:39,880 Speaker 20: whose names he exploited and used to try to get 1757 01:39:39,880 --> 01:39:43,160 Speaker 20: close to his intended victims. Their names may be in 1758 01:39:43,200 --> 01:39:45,519 Speaker 20: these files and they had nothing to do with this, 1759 01:39:46,200 --> 01:39:48,599 Speaker 20: and so by just haphazardly releasing it, you're going to 1760 01:39:48,600 --> 01:39:52,639 Speaker 20: destroy their reputations. Releasing information containing the names of innocent 1761 01:39:52,680 --> 01:39:55,960 Speaker 20: people would subject those innocent people to a guilt by association. 1762 01:39:56,400 --> 01:39:58,519 Speaker 20: It would create an entirely new group of victims who 1763 01:39:58,560 --> 01:40:01,200 Speaker 20: have no means to clear their name. Games. That's a 1764 01:40:01,240 --> 01:40:03,320 Speaker 20: concern of Congress, and it should be it should be 1765 01:40:04,280 --> 01:40:07,120 Speaker 20: number three. The discharge in its current form fails to 1766 01:40:07,120 --> 01:40:09,720 Speaker 20: prohibit the release of child sexual abuse materials. 1767 01:40:10,000 --> 01:40:10,920 Speaker 4: That is a term of art. 1768 01:40:11,000 --> 01:40:14,799 Speaker 20: It's called see sam okay, it's defined in the US Code. 1769 01:40:15,360 --> 01:40:18,200 Speaker 20: The discharge is so haphazardly written because remember it's just 1770 01:40:18,200 --> 01:40:20,439 Speaker 20: a political exercise for these guys. They don't seem to 1771 01:40:20,479 --> 01:40:24,120 Speaker 20: care about this. But they cited the wrong section of 1772 01:40:24,160 --> 01:40:26,679 Speaker 20: the US Code. So when they try, when they say 1773 01:40:26,720 --> 01:40:28,640 Speaker 20: that they're, oh, we don't want child pornography to come out, 1774 01:40:28,720 --> 01:40:30,920 Speaker 20: child sexual abuse materials. Of course, we don't want that release. 1775 01:40:31,600 --> 01:40:34,600 Speaker 20: They wrote this thing so quickly that they cited the 1776 01:40:34,600 --> 01:40:36,920 Speaker 20: wrong section. So you know what that means. It means 1777 01:40:36,960 --> 01:40:40,760 Speaker 20: that it doesn't really bestow any real legal authority on 1778 01:40:40,760 --> 01:40:43,040 Speaker 20: the Attorney General to redact those materials. 1779 01:40:43,960 --> 01:40:47,240 Speaker 2: This is a very very good dissertation here from Speaker 1780 01:40:47,320 --> 01:40:52,759 Speaker 2: Johnson about how we don't will release the files, release 1781 01:40:52,800 --> 01:40:55,040 Speaker 2: the epcine files, and of course you and I want 1782 01:40:55,080 --> 01:40:57,439 Speaker 2: that done, but there's got to be some level of 1783 01:40:57,479 --> 01:41:01,320 Speaker 2: protection here, and we're not engage in this. We're engaged 1784 01:41:01,360 --> 01:41:05,400 Speaker 2: in this fanatical move. We're not engaged in a rational move. 1785 01:41:05,560 --> 01:41:08,400 Speaker 2: When you hear him talk, what is the democratic argument, 1786 01:41:08,680 --> 01:41:12,120 Speaker 2: screw those women? Well, right, we're not talking about allowing 1787 01:41:12,160 --> 01:41:14,200 Speaker 2: men in women's locker rooms. That's when they say screw 1788 01:41:14,240 --> 01:41:16,559 Speaker 2: those women. No, no, we're not talking about men and women's sports. 1789 01:41:16,720 --> 01:41:18,559 Speaker 2: That's when they say screw those women. No, no, no, 1790 01:41:18,600 --> 01:41:21,519 Speaker 2: we're talking about Oh wow. I guess that's a pattern, 1791 01:41:21,880 --> 01:41:27,240 Speaker 2: isn't it. We're talking about us being smarter about doing this, 1792 01:41:28,040 --> 01:41:31,840 Speaker 2: and just a breath here, we are don't do it 1793 01:41:31,920 --> 01:41:34,920 Speaker 2: via discharge. That's all he's asking for now. If he's 1794 01:41:34,920 --> 01:41:37,639 Speaker 2: asking for something else, like not to release the files, 1795 01:41:37,920 --> 01:41:40,639 Speaker 2: and then I would tell Speaker Johnson to go to hell. 1796 01:41:41,320 --> 01:41:43,720 Speaker 2: That doesn't seem to be what he's asking for in 1797 01:41:43,760 --> 01:41:44,720 Speaker 2: any way, and. 1798 01:41:44,680 --> 01:41:47,920 Speaker 20: I would compel the DOJ to release that stuff into 1799 01:41:47,960 --> 01:41:50,720 Speaker 20: the public. Every single person in this room knows that's 1800 01:41:50,720 --> 01:41:52,880 Speaker 20: wrong and you should stand against it. But that's what 1801 01:41:52,920 --> 01:41:56,960 Speaker 20: the discharge says. Number four. It jeopardizes the future federal 1802 01:41:56,960 --> 01:42:01,280 Speaker 20: investigations of the United States. Why because the discharge only 1803 01:42:01,320 --> 01:42:04,879 Speaker 20: allows the Attorney General to redact limited portions of records 1804 01:42:05,640 --> 01:42:11,479 Speaker 20: that could publicly identify individuals who are promised confidentiality. In 1805 01:42:11,560 --> 01:42:14,760 Speaker 20: this scenario, you're talking about whistleblowers, You're talking about confidential 1806 01:42:14,760 --> 01:42:18,120 Speaker 20: informants who came forward and gave information and evidence in 1807 01:42:18,160 --> 01:42:25,800 Speaker 20: exchange for agreed to have their identities not revealed, violating confidentiality. 1808 01:42:26,080 --> 01:42:29,000 Speaker 20: Imagine the chilling effect that would have on future investigations. 1809 01:42:29,280 --> 01:42:30,800 Speaker 20: Who's going to want to come forward if they think 1810 01:42:30,800 --> 01:42:34,200 Speaker 20: Congress can take a political exercise and reveal their identities. 1811 01:42:34,240 --> 01:42:36,679 Speaker 20: Who's going to come talk to prosecutors. It's very dangerous. 1812 01:42:37,000 --> 01:42:40,719 Speaker 20: It would deter future whistleblowers and informants, and the release 1813 01:42:40,720 --> 01:42:42,920 Speaker 20: of that could also publicly reveal the identity by the 1814 01:42:42,960 --> 01:42:47,040 Speaker 20: way of undercover law enforcement officers who are working in 1815 01:42:47,080 --> 01:42:50,400 Speaker 20: future operations. Dangerous stuff, and they seem not to care. 1816 01:42:50,400 --> 01:42:51,759 Speaker 20: And by the way, I'm going to remind you again, 1817 01:42:52,080 --> 01:42:54,400 Speaker 20: we went to the authors. We asked the authors of 1818 01:42:54,479 --> 01:42:57,960 Speaker 20: discharge to change this, and they said jump in the Potomac. 1819 01:42:58,040 --> 01:42:59,760 Speaker 20: All right, Number five. 1820 01:43:00,200 --> 01:43:02,480 Speaker 4: I very much doubt they said jump in the Potomac. 1821 01:43:02,520 --> 01:43:05,719 Speaker 20: But you get the meaning national security concerns. 1822 01:43:05,760 --> 01:43:06,080 Speaker 4: Okay. 1823 01:43:06,320 --> 01:43:10,160 Speaker 20: The discharge requires the Attorney General to release within thirty 1824 01:43:10,240 --> 01:43:16,720 Speaker 20: days quote classified information to the maximum extent possible. This 1825 01:43:16,800 --> 01:43:21,320 Speaker 20: ignores the principle that declassification should always rest and always 1826 01:43:21,360 --> 01:43:24,920 Speaker 20: has rested with the agency that originated the intelligence why 1827 01:43:25,439 --> 01:43:29,040 Speaker 20: so that they can protect their critical sources and methods. 1828 01:43:29,080 --> 01:43:34,400 Speaker 20: It is incredibly dangerous to demand that the officials or 1829 01:43:34,640 --> 01:43:38,360 Speaker 20: employees of the DOJ declassify materials that originated in other 1830 01:43:38,400 --> 01:43:41,880 Speaker 20: agencies and intelligence agencies. I could go on, I won't 1831 01:43:41,920 --> 01:43:43,479 Speaker 20: be here all morning. But there's a lot of problems. 1832 01:43:43,479 --> 01:43:45,640 Speaker 20: There's also a whole a lot of legal scholars, and 1833 01:43:45,680 --> 01:43:50,120 Speaker 20: I'm among them, who are concerned that you've got problems 1834 01:43:50,120 --> 01:43:54,200 Speaker 20: with grand jury secrecy. We know Rules six e of 1835 01:43:54,240 --> 01:43:56,640 Speaker 20: the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure prohibits the release of 1836 01:43:56,680 --> 01:43:59,799 Speaker 20: grand jury materials, but the way the discharge is drafted, 1837 01:44:00,160 --> 01:44:02,040 Speaker 20: you can make an argument that it requires all that 1838 01:44:02,040 --> 01:44:04,200 Speaker 20: to come out, and that is a serious problem. Grand 1839 01:44:04,280 --> 01:44:08,280 Speaker 20: juries are not adversarial. Okay, there's no opportunity there for 1840 01:44:08,360 --> 01:44:12,720 Speaker 20: cross examination. You can't disprove evidence, you can't challenge the 1841 01:44:12,720 --> 01:44:13,679 Speaker 20: evidence in any way. 1842 01:44:14,520 --> 01:44:16,240 Speaker 4: I think he's making a sound argument. 1843 01:44:16,320 --> 01:44:19,360 Speaker 2: I have no idea if by the time you hear 1844 01:44:19,439 --> 01:44:23,920 Speaker 2: this they voted or not and how they voted. So 1845 01:44:24,160 --> 01:44:27,479 Speaker 2: understand that even the vote today, which would be discharge petition, 1846 01:44:27,600 --> 01:44:31,840 Speaker 2: is not necessarily the Oh my gosh, Republicans are trying 1847 01:44:31,880 --> 01:44:35,920 Speaker 2: to keep everybody from getting this data. President Trump has 1848 01:44:35,960 --> 01:44:40,280 Speaker 2: figured out that Americans want this. He had the wrong tact, 1849 01:44:40,320 --> 01:44:43,360 Speaker 2: he had the wrong approach. He is now engaged in 1850 01:44:43,400 --> 01:44:48,920 Speaker 2: the right approach. Let the information be released and we 1851 01:44:48,960 --> 01:44:52,559 Speaker 2: will see names on their Democrat names and Republican names 1852 01:44:52,600 --> 01:44:55,080 Speaker 2: and celebrity names and all sorts of names. And just 1853 01:44:55,200 --> 01:44:58,280 Speaker 2: because there are names doesn't mean that they are guilty. 1854 01:44:58,320 --> 01:45:00,479 Speaker 2: It doesn't mean they were on the island, doesn't mean 1855 01:45:00,560 --> 01:45:05,400 Speaker 2: they were abusing children. Some may have, and that's what 1856 01:45:05,439 --> 01:45:08,439 Speaker 2: an investigation is for. And why wasn't this done already? 1857 01:45:08,560 --> 01:45:10,559 Speaker 2: Why aren't people in jail? This is where we should 1858 01:45:10,600 --> 01:45:13,760 Speaker 2: keep our focus. Everything else we're talking about here is 1859 01:45:13,880 --> 01:45:17,800 Speaker 2: just about engaging protection and the level of animosity on 1860 01:45:17,840 --> 01:45:21,960 Speaker 2: a subject that Americans should be totally unified on these 1861 01:45:22,000 --> 01:45:25,160 Speaker 2: people were abusing young children, find them and throw their 1862 01:45:25,160 --> 01:45:28,800 Speaker 2: butts in jail. What are we waiting for? What are 1863 01:45:28,800 --> 01:45:32,120 Speaker 2: we waiting for? And the answer is, I don't know, 1864 01:45:33,439 --> 01:45:37,519 Speaker 2: but hopefully not this discharge petition. But today's the day. 1865 01:45:38,080 --> 01:45:43,240 Speaker 2: I'm Tony Katz. Ford needs mechanics.
