1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:04,320
Speaker 1: So the USA has withdrawn from the World Health Organization.

2
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:10,799
Speaker 1: Officially great news. After all the bf WHO did during COVID,

3
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:14,600
Speaker 1: they have shown that they are not a worthy organization.

4
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:16,400
Speaker 1: Way to go, Trump.

5
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:19,960
Speaker 2: I don't have to you know, I can't believe it

6
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:24,799
Speaker 2: because I always liked I personally always liked the WHO.

7
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:29,080
Speaker 2: Tommy my favorite, you know, Vinyl is the WHO live

8
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:30,040

Speaker 3: A pinball wizard, man pinball wizard.

10
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 2: I mean, it doesn't get much better than the WHO.

11
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:35,360

Speaker 2: keyword Mike or Michael. I honestly don't know what the

Speaker 2: want to tell me something or ask me something, it's

20
00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:04,280
Speaker 2: got to be three three one zero three keyword micro Michael.

00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:08,959
Speaker 2: I am. I'm making as much progress on getting them

22
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,119

23
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:17,120

25
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:23,560

00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 2: The cockroach guy here aka roach man. I don't think

34
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 2: it's Alan roach because this guy says his name is Michael.

35
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 3: It's not ALRL. Yeah, you can't. You can't infringe on

36
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 3: roach here.

37
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 4: That's right. I mean you got that voice, so you

38
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 4: can't do that.

39
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 1: Uh.

40
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 2: The cockroach guy here AKA that's uh. That's a little

41
00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 2: acronym for also known as roach man parentheses. I've given

42
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 2: away eighty five hundred plastic cockroaches all around the globe

43
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 2: in my military and civilian travels.

44
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:12,560
Speaker 4: That's probably one of.

45
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 2: The oddest things I've ever heard that somebody does. I've

46
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 2: heard of people leaving well, of course, you know in government,

47
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 2: you got in military, you have challenge coins, you have that.

48
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 2: Or people will leave, you know, a business card, or

49
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 2: they'll leave some little card that maybe not a business card,

50
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 2: but it's got some funny saying or something, and maybe

51
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 2: a weird website that you know, has nothing to do

52
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 2: with the business, just something out of you know, curiosity.

53
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,360
Speaker 2: I've seen all sorts of things, but I've never heard

54
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,920
Speaker 2: of anybody leaving. Now you know where you I suppose

55
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,239
Speaker 2: timu or Amazon eBay.

56
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 3: I don't know.

57
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,359
Speaker 4: Where do you get a plastic cockroach? And why would

58
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 4: you get a plastic cockroach?

59
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,960
Speaker 3: Everybody's got a hobby cockroaches. Why not?

60
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 4: I don't know.

61
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 2: I just think that, I mean, are they Republican Democratic cockroaches?

62
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:58,559
Speaker 4: Are the conservative cockroaches?

63
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 3: Your hobby is coming into the study that you're in

64
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 3: and complaining to Gina about why is this TV on

65
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 3: this channel? And why is this TV on this channel?

66
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,080
Speaker 3: Why don't you put that channel over there?

67
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:11,600

70
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,000
Speaker 2: You mean you mean your spouse dislikes the fact that

Speaker 2: when you go into you know, you go into a

72
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 2: fancy schmancy restaurant. So you're going over to Perry Steakhouse

73
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 2: and you know, you're sitting down and you're gonna pay,

74
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 2: you know, two hundred and fifty dollars for two if

75
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 2: you'd have a really nice dinner and maybe you know,

76
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 2: maybe a half glass wacke or whatever, and you leave

77
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 2: a tip and you leave a plastic cockroach. I I

78
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 2: think I met me with your wife on this one.

Speaker 2: especially for you too.

83
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:04,840
Speaker 4: It was a mold spores stamp.

84
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 2: And I'll try to write more clearly on the next postcard.

85
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 2: We have to start just for the hell of the campaign,

86
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 2: to see how many postcards we can get.

87
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 4: Wouldn't that be fun?

88
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,240

Speaker 2: was going to happen, but I wasn't sure what time

112
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:47,480
Speaker 2: it was going to start. Jack Smith, probably the losingest

113
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 2: prosecutor in the history of prosecutors, is on the hot

114
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 2: seat before the Senate or I'm sorry, the House, uh

115
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 2: might be the House. Something is House Oversight Committee. I'm

116
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 2: not sure which committee it is, House Oversight, Household Land Security,

00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 2: House Judiciary Committee, whichever one the Jim Jordan chairs, I

118
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:09,920
Speaker 2: don't know which one it is. And CRCT frankly, I

119
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 2: don't care. They're all the same in this regard. They

120
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 2: don't ever really do anything. They just have a hearing.

121
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,799
Speaker 2: They spin everybody up. They talk about, Oh, we're gonna

122
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:21,600
Speaker 2: do this and that we're gonna well, we're gonna get

123
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,840
Speaker 2: to the truth of everything. Yeah, well, so what if

124
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:25,600
Speaker 2: you get to the truth of something and you find

125
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,240
Speaker 2: out that the truth of something is that somebody has

126
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 2: violated the law, violated you know, the code of ethics

127
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 2: of the Bar Association, have done something, and then you

128
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 2: never file a bar complaint. You never get, you know,

129
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 2: refer to the Department of Justice, or you do refer

130
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 2: to the DOJ, and the DJ never files an indictment

131
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 2: or a charge or does anything. Nobody ever goes to jail.

132
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 2: We will he never get a purp walk. Yet at

133
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:51,640
Speaker 2: the same time we're questioning right now, Right now as

134
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 2: I speak, inside the belt Way in a hearing room

135
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 2: up on Capitol.

136
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 4: Hill, there is a hearing going on.

137
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 2: And this is the guy that in previous testimony from

138
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 2: some of his co workers. One guy planed the Fifth

139
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 2: Amendment more than I think more than seventy five times

140
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 2: during his deposition. So they've referred him to the DOJ

141
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:21,120
Speaker 2: for obstruction of a congressional hearing. Now he has a

142
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 2: right to invoke his Fifth Amendment. But if you invoke

143
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,120
Speaker 2: your Fifth Amendment seventy five plus times in the course

144
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 2: of a deposition in front of a congressional committee, I mean,

145
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:36,200
Speaker 2: I think about all the congressional committees and congressional depositions

146
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 2: that I've been in, had I invoked the Fifth Amendment

147
00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 2: even one time? Mister secretary would like to ask you,

148
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,760
Speaker 2: is it true that you parted in public on you know,

149
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 2: September fourteenth to two thousand and four, while you were

150
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 2: in an elevator going up somewhere right on the advice

151
00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,680
Speaker 2: the council I hear by a vote in my Fifth

152
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 2: Amendment rights not to incriminize myself, and I will not

153
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 2: answer those questions.

154
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 3: Well, doesn't I can't recall work just as well?

155
00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 2: Yes, except that I I can't recall is really it

156
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 2: is honestly a dangerous position to take. I know that

157
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 2: everybody uses it. Well, I don't remember, I don't recall.

158
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 2: The problem is you don't know who's out there that

159
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:32,000
Speaker 2: was present when whatever occurred, was present, standing next to

160
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 2: you or in the same room with you. And even

161
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 2: though you can't recall now, there is information that wait

162
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 2: a minute, were you lying? Then?

163
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 4: Are you lying now?

164
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:44,079
Speaker 2: Because we have four or five other witnesses that were

165
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:46,959
Speaker 2: there contemporaneously with the same thing, you can't recall that

166
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 2: said you were there and you were participating in it,

167
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:55,440
Speaker 2: And so I can't recall simply postpones ultimately getting to

168
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 2: the truth and might subject you, could subject you to

169
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,840
Speaker 2: perjury charge. So I've never liked the I have no

170
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:06,160
Speaker 2: problem if someone is honestly telling me, for example, in

171
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:09,920
Speaker 2: a trial, that I can't recall, I'll dance around that question,

172
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 2: or I'll drop the question immediately and go on to

173
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 2: other things and then come back and ask the question

174
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,079
Speaker 2: in a different way that might cause them to go

175
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 2: But well, of course, yeah, blah blah blah blah blah,

176
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 2: and then I don't say a word. I just will

177
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,040
Speaker 2: point out to a jury or to a judge or

178
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 2: whomever I'm in front of, he may recall that when

179
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:34,080
Speaker 2: I first asked the question. Mister Redbeard said he never

180
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 2: recalled calling mister Brown an ahole. However, forty five minutes later,

181
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 2: when we finally got into our two, he clearly recalled

182
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:49,400
Speaker 2: calling me a whole dirt bag. So see, it's a

183
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 2: if he proposition to do that. How much does a

184
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 2: postcard costs?

185
00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 4: Now? I think what did he tell us yesterday? Seventy

186
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:57,680
Speaker 4: nine cents he paid for a stamp?

187
00:09:57,840 --> 00:09:59,040
Speaker 3: I thought it was a stamp. But you got to

188
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:00,720
Speaker 3: buy the postcard as well, right.

189
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well you could just shoplift, you just steal a postcard,

190
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:05,840
Speaker 2: you know, just go in and just swipe a postcard,

191
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:07,960
Speaker 2: you know, Or you could just you know, either got

192
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:09,360
Speaker 2: a four or six card, you can just put a

193
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 2: stamp on it.

194
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,959
Speaker 3: And maybe aren't they all just right out front of

195
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:14,079
Speaker 3: the Bogadas.

196
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 2: The bogs both of gods, not boga doas both of gods,

197
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,719
Speaker 2: both of gods. Maybe you could go to Vegas and

198
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:29,200
Speaker 2: get us a little newdy postcard, you know, a little

199
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 2: dancing girl or something, a little pole dancer or something.

200
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:33,679
Speaker 3: Send us one of those pins where you turn it

201
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:35,280
Speaker 3: upside down to the bikini falls off.

202
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:36,840
Speaker 4: Oh my god, I haven't seen one of those in

203
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:37,720
Speaker 4: one hundred years.

204
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 3: The deck of cards too, you get this.

205
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, you probably you know.

206
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 2: Interestingly, I have a funny feeling that somewhere in a

207
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:49,920
Speaker 2: drawer in your house there are those things still existing somewhere.

208
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:52,839
Speaker 3: Nook, I plead the fan, that's right.

209
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,080
Speaker 2: You started to say, I don't recall. Then realize I

210
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 2: could call missus Redbeard and find out if you have

211
00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 2: the pants or the at cards, and then that don't

212
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,680
Speaker 2: recall would become bs and you would be now guilty

213
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 2: of purgury to your talent. So gotta watch out bucko postcards, Yes, Michael,

214
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 2: or Dragon Koa or Sweet four hundred forty six ninety

215
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,600
Speaker 2: five South Monico Street. You don't have to put Monico

216
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:23,080
Speaker 2: just forty six ninety five South Monico, Denver, Co. Eight

217
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:25,600
Speaker 2: two three seven. That'll be kind of interesting to see

218
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 2: what happens.

219
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:29,120
Speaker 4: And don't say.

220
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:32,040
Speaker 2: Anything about anybody that we talk about. Don't see anything

221
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 2: about like our bosses on the postcard, because I'll all

222
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 2: read those whenever, because everybody reads everybody else's mail around

223
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:42,600
Speaker 2: this place, and everybody's always looking, oh look, somebody got this,

224
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 2: Oh look, Dave Logan got this, Oh look, rus Kaminski

225
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:45,840
Speaker 2: got this.

226
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:47,960
Speaker 4: Oh look, man, he got this, oh look.

227
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 2: And then you know, everybody kind of holds it up

228
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,280
Speaker 2: the lights see what it is, So be careful. Not

229
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:54,000
Speaker 2: that I would know anything about that. I would have

230
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 2: never done that my entire life, So don't worry about that.

231
00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:59,720
Speaker 2: So Jack Smith is testifying.

232
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 3: Today, and real quick, one work out on Mike or

233
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 3: Michael that's pronounced bo de guys.

234
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:12,080
Speaker 2: Clearly you've clearly you're new here. Clearly you're new here.

235
00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:16,760
Speaker 2: Because we purposely or purposely how about that one? We

236
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 2: purposely like to mispronounce things. Why because it grates them

237
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:24,320
Speaker 2: some people's nerves and it irritates them. And then we

238
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:27,319
Speaker 2: get text messages they're thinking, you dumbasses.

239
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:28,679
Speaker 4: You can't pronounce like.

240
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 3: Cuator really clear new clear new clear new cutler, nuculear

241
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 3: new clear.

242
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:42,640
Speaker 2: Back to jasminth back to Jasmine Smith, back to Jack Smith.

243
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,560
Speaker 2: So one thing is clear, Jack Smith and Donald Trump

244
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 2: of greed on one thing over the past few years.

245
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 4: And that is what we're finally getting today, and.

246
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 2: That is that Jack Smith must testify under oath before

247
00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:00,480
Speaker 2: the American people about his work as the Special Council.

248
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:03,280
Speaker 2: As I was saying before we got off the stupid

249
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:06,320
Speaker 2: postcard thing, one of the things that I heard in

250
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,680
Speaker 2: an opening statement from Jim Jordan this morning, was in

251
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 2: addition to the one co worker, you know, one of

252
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 2: the employees of Jack Smith, uh testify or invoking the

253
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:21,840
Speaker 2: Fifth Amendment at seventy five plus times, is that another

254
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:26,600
Speaker 2: coworker of Jack Smith's in this investigation of Donald Trump

255
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 2: also said that the rate of Marl Logo was not

256
00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 2: conducted in accordance with Department of Justice policy. And then

257
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:41,360
Speaker 2: another assertion that was made was that the apployment of

258
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:46,880
Speaker 2: Jack Smith was unconstitutional. And I've always believed that because

259
00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:52,480
Speaker 2: he was a special counsel. However, we have now don't

260
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 2: hold me to this number. It's either like seventy something

261
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 2: or ninety something, but it's a huge number of US

262
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:04,040
Speaker 2: at urn around the country that have not been confirmed

263
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:08,680
Speaker 2: by the United States Senate. Why is that important? Two reasons.

264
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:15,880
Speaker 2: One is that means that probably a career prosecutor, say

265
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 2: in the District of Colorado, right here in little Old Denver,

266
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 2: there may be an I think we may actually have

267
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:25,600
Speaker 2: a US attorney appointed here, but if we didn't, the

268
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:29,360
Speaker 2: person filling in as the acting US attorney would be

269
00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 2: probably more likely than not a career civil servant who's

270
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 2: probably been there for five thousand years and can barely

271
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:40,440
Speaker 2: get around, and he's a Democrat or she is a Democrat,

272
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 2: and they are infused with Trump arrangement syndrome.

273
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 4: So of course they're not going to do anything, or anything.

274
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 2: That they are going to do is trying to stop,

275
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 2: you know, anything that's on the Trump agenda. Well, the

276
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:56,440
Speaker 2: reason we don't have these confirmations done is because of

277
00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,760
Speaker 2: the blue slip. The blue slip is when a United

278
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 2: State senator can just summarily block a singular or any

279
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:08,760
Speaker 2: number or a group or a category of presidential nominees

280
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:11,960
Speaker 2: and they never get a hearing, and so the president's

281
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:15,640
Speaker 2: unable to effectuate his agenda because he can't consider get

282
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 2: his own people in place. And this really ticks me

283
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:24,120
Speaker 2: off because when when Bush took office back in two

284
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 2: thousand and one, he summarily fired all the US attorneys

285
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 2: and the world went back crap crazy, And I remember

286
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:36,880
Speaker 2: at the time thinking, why why is nobody going crazy?

287
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 2: Every president, every single president, asks for the resignation of

288
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:46,480
Speaker 2: all the existing US attorneys that were appointed by their predecessor,

289
00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:49,120
Speaker 2: even if it was saying, you know, Bush forty one

290
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 2: is asking for the resignation.

291
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 4: Of all the Reagan appointed US attorneys.

292
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:55,600
Speaker 2: Why because they went their own people in there, and

293
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 2: they have a right to have their own people in there.

294
00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 2: But these stupid US senators republic a Democrat alike. In fact,

295
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:05,000
Speaker 2: it may be a Republican who is blue slipping these

296
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 2: US attorneys. It's it prevents the president from pursuing his

297
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:17,160
Speaker 2: prosecutorial Department of Justice agenda. And it means that there

298
00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:19,240
Speaker 2: are many people in these offices who are going to

299
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,560
Speaker 2: do everything they can to obstruct.

300
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 4: The President's agenda.

301
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 2: But Jack Smith gets appointed as a special Council and

302
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:32,080
Speaker 2: only finally does Judge Eileen Cannon down in the in

303
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:36,520
Speaker 2: the Florida Federal Courthouse make a determination that his appointment

304
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 2: was unconstitutional. Trump has tried to bypass the appointment process

305
00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:50,640
Speaker 2: by appointing some interim US attorneys, and now judges are

306
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 2: ruling that that is unconstitutional. And I'm not really and

307
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:59,040
Speaker 2: I'm not really convinced that appointing an interim US attorney

308
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:05,240
Speaker 2: is unconstitutional, but you know what they're doing it anyway. Hey,

309

Speaker 2: this hour's chance to win a thousand bucks. Yeah, it's

00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:32,399
Speaker 4: We should do Crown Prince. That'd be easier because now

316
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:34,920
Speaker 4: in that case, I really don't care. I just really

317
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:35,360
Speaker 4: don't care.

318
00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:43,320
Speaker 2: Back to Jack Smith, I don't know what's going to

319
00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:46,919
Speaker 2: happen out of this hearing, but my guess there's probably

320
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:49,040
Speaker 2: not much of anything. Oh, we'll get, you know, we'll

321
00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:56,600
Speaker 2: get some sort of details. Jimmy raskin the the uh,

322
00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:04,639
Speaker 2: the Democrat on the committee, was on a tirade this

323
00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:08,919
Speaker 2: morning about what a great guy he is, Jack Smith.

324
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:13,080
Speaker 2: You know, he's a triathlete, he's a marathon runner, he's

325
00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:17,080
Speaker 2: done all these Ironman competitions, and that somehow reflects it

326
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:19,800
Speaker 2: the way he does his work. And he's never had

327
00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:22,320
Speaker 2: a bar complaint filed against him, he's never been charged

328
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:25,119
Speaker 2: with anything, he's never done anything. But what he doesn't

329
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:28,959
Speaker 2: point out is he's never won anything. He's probably, and

330
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:34,120
Speaker 2: I think this may be statistically true, the most overruled

331
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,919
Speaker 2: prosecutor in the history of the Department of Justice, because

332
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:42,120
Speaker 2: he overcharges, he overreaches, he breaks the rules. He's always

333
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:48,000
Speaker 2: doing something wrong, and appellate courts, including the US Supreme Court,

334
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:55,280
Speaker 2: are always overturning him. So while everybody's been desperately hoping

335
00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:58,080
Speaker 2: to have Jack Smith testify, well that's coming true today.

336
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,439
Speaker 2: He did say for a transcribed interview or maybe a

337
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:06,080
Speaker 2: deposition back in December, but that was behind closed doors,

338
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,160
Speaker 2: and we really haven't seen much of that right now.

339
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:13,280
Speaker 2: This guy is never short on swagger. He's self righteous.

340
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 2: He's got an unjustified arrogance, particularly giving his trick, given

341
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 2: his track record, and I think he's going to try

342
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 2: to charm the crowd today with his really deep knowledge

343
00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:28,240
Speaker 2: of the two unprecedented criminal cases that he brought against

344
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:32,560
Speaker 2: Trump and in twenty twenty three, one related to January

345
00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:36,679
Speaker 2: sixth and the other related to the president's alleged mishandling

346
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:37,960
Speaker 2: a classified documents.

347
00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 4: And I think what he's going to do is this

348
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 4: watch the news.

349
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:50,119
Speaker 2: Reports tonight, because I'm just I know the media too well.

350
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 2: Jack Smith is going to make the closing argument against Trump.

351
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:57,440
Speaker 2: They get that he never got to make in either

352
00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:02,760
Speaker 2: of the January sixth trial or the document's trial. So

353
00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,440
Speaker 2: I think this is his opportunity to deliver his own

354
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:10,160
Speaker 2: closing argument. He'll make the closing arguments he never made

355
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:14,639
Speaker 2: in court, since those matters both got dropped after Trump

356
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:18,640
Speaker 2: won the election. So while the cabal is swooning over

357
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:23,120
Speaker 2: his eight hour performance, the committee back from December thirty first,

358
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 2: did release some of the transcription video recording of his interview,

359
00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:30,879
Speaker 2: and I wasn't dazzled by the grizzled ex war crimes prosecutor.

360
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:40,040
Speaker 2: Even though Washington Post that editorial board slammed Smith's answers

361
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:44,720
Speaker 2: about the First Amendment implications of this January sixth case

362
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:51,120
Speaker 2: because that case, Smith sought and received a gag order

363
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 2: on Trump and all of his associates during the twenty

364
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:59,679
Speaker 2: twenty four campaign season. Now, he also unsuccessfully tried to

365
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 2: get a gag order in the document's case. So the

366
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 2: Washington Post editorial board correctly surmised that Smith was quote

367
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 2: still clinging to the flawed legal theories that had lost

368
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:17,280
Speaker 2: sight of constitutional limits, and that Jack Smith quote seemed

369
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:21,639
Speaker 2: unconcerned about interfering in the Democrat process by seeking the

370
00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:25,440
Speaker 2: muzzle a candidate for high office. In other words, the

371
00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:29,480
Speaker 2: editorial board of the Washington Post one of the kings

372
00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 2: or Queens of the Cabal took direct aim at Smith's

373
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 2: retort that the president's statements about voting fraud were absolutely

374
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:42,639
Speaker 2: not protected by the First Amendment. They wrote, political speech,

375
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:45,960
Speaker 2: including speech about elections, no matter how odious, is strongly

376
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,679
Speaker 2: protected by the First Amendment. It is not unusual that

377
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:52,800
Speaker 2: Washington Post's editors wrote for politicians to take factual liberties.

378
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 2: The main check on such misdirection is public scrutiny, not

379
00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:02,640
Speaker 2: criminal prosecution. The former Special Council apparently has no regrets

380
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 2: about this heavy handed approach, even though it failed legally

381
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,320
Speaker 2: and probably helped Trump win the twenty twenty four election.

382
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,440
Speaker 2: Now that's kind of a backhanded, you know, dissing of

383
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 2: Jack Smith, but.

384
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:14,840
Speaker 4: It points out the truth.

385
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 2: And it is that overall heavy handed approach an overly

386
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:25,280
Speaker 2: nice way to describe the Special Council's egregious misconduct in office.

387
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 2: That requires a deep drilling down by the Republicans on

388
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:33,040
Speaker 2: this committee today. Yes, I know, smith subpoenis for self

389
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 2: phone records of several Republican senators, and the accompanying court

390
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:42,359
Speaker 2: authorized non disclosure orders, in my opinion, represent an appalling

391
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 2: breach of the law and a complete tearing down of

392
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:52,280
Speaker 2: the constitutional boundaries. But Jack Smith's offices his I say offices.

393
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:55,760
Speaker 2: He had one office, but he had two cases. Their

394
00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,840
Speaker 2: overall malfeasance as it pursued the real victim here, Donald

395
00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 2: Trump demands of full public vetting because one can only

396
00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:06,680
Speaker 2: conjure up so much sympathy from members of Congress whose

397
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,639
Speaker 2: privacy rights, indeed, I think were violated by the Biden

398
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 2: Department of Justice, when many of those same members remain

399
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:15,960
Speaker 2: silent as the Department of Justice did the same or

400
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:20,399
Speaker 2: far worse to their own constituents for years. These people

401
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 2: are so full of themselves, and somehow think that because

402
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:26,640
Speaker 2: oh I'm a United States Senator, I'm a member of Congress.

403
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:30,080
Speaker 2: Don't get me wrong. I respect the office, but I

404
00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:33,800
Speaker 2: have very little respect for many of them individually because

405
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 2: they're so two faced. They're like wind things in an

406
00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:41,000
Speaker 2: Oklahoma windstorm, just swirling around. It's the Wizard of Oz

407
00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:44,520
Speaker 2: just swirling around everywhere. And I think to that end,

408
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:48,560
Speaker 2: the Republicans should shorten their lines of inquiries about the

409
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:50,800
Speaker 2: self owned subpoenas, and instead what they ought to do

410
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 2: is ask Smith to explain a whole list of his

411
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:56,960
Speaker 2: other lawless dishonesty and downright incompetence.

412
00:23:57,680 --> 00:23:58,920
Speaker 4: So I made a top ten list.

413
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,200
Speaker 2: Let's go through my top ten list what they ought

414
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,840
Speaker 2: to focus on, and then you can compare and contrast

415
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:08,800
Speaker 2: my list with what these yahoos in Congress really do.

416
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:11,680
Speaker 2: And maybe next time you decide to vote for a

417
00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:14,840
Speaker 2: member of Congress, you'll think, maybe I'm not look, I'm

418
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,200
Speaker 2: not running. I'm not saying this. I'm saying, maybe I

419
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 2: ought to vote for somebody that thinks about these things

420
00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:24,400
Speaker 2: like I do. And maybe maybe, hey, Republican Party at Colorado,

421
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,920
Speaker 2: for that matter, Republican Party at all these blue states,

422
00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:31,360
Speaker 2: maybe you ought to start or stop nominating the most

423
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:35,160
Speaker 2: far right wing conservative and actually elect someone who can

424
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:39,760
Speaker 2: analytically and still maintain their principles, but analytically look at

425
00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:43,359
Speaker 2: these issues and do the right thing, but also appeal

426
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 2: to some independent and unaffiliated voters and actually get elected.

427
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:50,480
Speaker 2: I look at what's going on in the gubernatorial race here,

428
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:52,360
Speaker 2: in the senatorial race, and I'm thinking, okay, well we're

429
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:55,760
Speaker 2: just gonna squrel sales once again. But back to my

430
00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,840
Speaker 2: top ten list. Let's you wanna take a break here. Okay,

431
00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 2: we'll take a break here, and we'll do the top

432
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:01,360
Speaker 2: ten list starting next.

433
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:05,919
Speaker 1: No, no, no, I cannot handle all the mispronunciations. It

434
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:11,040
Speaker 1: is not pronounced Jamie Raskin. It is pronounced total whole.

435
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:13,640
Speaker 4: The jay is silence.

436
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 2: Touche, very good, poor old Jamie Raskin. But there are

437
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,359
Speaker 2: a lot of Republicans that I would put in the

438
00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 2: same category as Jamie Raskin. It's just that Jamie Raskin

439
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:39,399
Speaker 2: has the additional fault of being a progressive Democrat in

440
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,720
Speaker 2: addition to be just an absolute idiot. The problem is

441
00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:46,760
Speaker 2: we have some Republicans who are absolute idiots too. They're

442
00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:50,560
Speaker 2: just not progressive Democrats, but they really are pretty stupid.

443
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 4: Sometimes.

444
00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:53,879
Speaker 2: Let me go buck me through my list. Here's what

445
00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:56,879
Speaker 2: I would do. Let's start with this. So the federal

446
00:25:56,920 --> 00:26:01,119
Speaker 2: District judge down in Florida, Judge Eileen Cannon, dismissed the

447
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 2: classified documents in July of twenty twenty four because she

448
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:10,120
Speaker 2: determined that the appointment violated the appointment's clause of the Constitution.

449
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:14,240
Speaker 2: I would ask Jack Smith, but you continue to sign

450
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:17,560
Speaker 2: your name on court filings in that matter until the

451
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,760
Speaker 2: time you resigned from office, which was not until January

452
00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:23,480
Speaker 2: of twenty twenty five. So on what basis did you

453
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:27,560
Speaker 2: continue to add special counsel Jack Smith on all the

454
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:31,399
Speaker 2: briefs and all the motions after a federal judge disqualified you?

455
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 4: Do you know?

456
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:36,960
Speaker 2: A federal judge this week said that a prosecutor who

457
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:41,320
Speaker 2: continues to sign his name to court filings after a

458
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:47,919
Speaker 2: disqualification order should face disciplinary action and or disbarment. Mister Smith,

459
00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:52,200
Speaker 2: do you agree or disagree? Get a very basic question

460
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:54,760
Speaker 2: out of the way. A federal judge said, you are

461
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:59,120
Speaker 2: unconstitutionally appointed, you are not a special counsel, and yet

462
00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:02,160
Speaker 2: you continue to do so. And another federal judge later

463
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:04,880
Speaker 2: on in another case, said that a prosecutor that continues

464
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:08,680
Speaker 2: to do that on a face disciplinary action or disbarment

465
00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:13,840
Speaker 2: put him on the hot seat. The second point, the

466
00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:17,920
Speaker 2: DOJ conducted the initial stage of the document's investigation in DC,

467
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:23,400
Speaker 2: although the proper jurisdiction was Southern Florida, because that's where

468
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 2: the crimes allegedly occurred. You continued that approach after you

469
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:31,800
Speaker 2: were appointed in November of twenty twenty two, only to

470
00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:35,320
Speaker 2: switch to Southern Florida at the last minute in order

471
00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:38,879
Speaker 2: to secure an indictment. So how did you present all

472
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 2: the case materials to a grand jury in Florida. Procedurally,

473
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 2: this guy was just all over the place, never following

474
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:50,159
Speaker 2: basic criminal procedure.

475
00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:52,360
Speaker 4: The third one would be.

476
00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:56,199
Speaker 2: Did you keep the document case in Washington because you

477
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:59,200
Speaker 2: thought you could get favorable rulings by Chief Judge Beryl

478
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:04,000
Speaker 2: Howell or Jeb Boseburg, both Obama appointees, such as them

479
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:08,320
Speaker 2: taking the extraordinary step of piercing attorney client privilege between

480
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:11,639
Speaker 2: the president and his lawyer, as well as subpoening the

481
00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:16,480
Speaker 2: President's Twitter data without his knowledge in clear violation of

482
00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:18,200
Speaker 2: executive privileged protections.

483
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 4: Ask him that now, maybe they will.

484
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,439
Speaker 2: I don't know, but those those are kind of the

485
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 2: kinds of questions that are going to put him in

486
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:35,600
Speaker 2: two positions. Tell the truth, persure yourself. Fourth, I would say,

487
00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 2: speaking of why did you initially claim the president would

488
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:43,280
Speaker 2: quote flee from prosecution if he was informed about the

489
00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 2: subpoena as a way for you to get and secure

490
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:48,720
Speaker 2: a non disclosure or a gag order.

491
00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 4: Why did you say he was.

492
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:53,920
Speaker 2: Going to flee from prosecution on what basis did you

493
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:57,800
Speaker 2: honestly believe that what Donald Trump was going to flee

494
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 2: the country and hide in Switzerland or I don't know

495
00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:03,240
Speaker 2: some you know, what was he gonna do?

496
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:03,720
Speaker 4: Oh?

497
00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:06,600
Speaker 2: You thought he's a Putin asset, So he would be like,

498
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 2: I don't know, bashar Assad, and he'd he'd sneak off

499
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:15,000
Speaker 2: and hide in one of Putin's duck owls. Or he'd

500
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:18,440
Speaker 2: he'd fly off to Beijing and hide in hide in

501
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,840
Speaker 2: one of uh Jijingping's vacation home somewhere.

502
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:29,479
Speaker 4: Where were you thinking, you dumbass five? I would say you.

503
00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:34,880
Speaker 2: Mister Smith said in your December interview that Twitter quote

504
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:38,000
Speaker 2: refused to comply even after Judge Hall ruled.

505
00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:39,800
Speaker 4: But that is not true.

506
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:42,880
Speaker 2: Not only did Twitter comply while at the same time

507
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:45,400
Speaker 2: fight the disclosure order, which is what you're supposed to do.

508
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 2: Four judges on the DC Appellate Court later condemned your

509
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:56,240
Speaker 2: request and Hal's participation. The judge in the quote unprecedented

510
00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:59,840
Speaker 2: search as they described it as having quote obscured and

511
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:04,560
Speaker 2: I passed any assertion of executive privilege. Who, mister Smith,

512
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:09,360
Speaker 2: authorized such a historic breach of presidential privilege?

513
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 4: Who were you in cohoots with? See that's the kind of.

514
00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:17,920
Speaker 2: Congressman I'd be, I'd because I'd use that kind of language.

515
00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:19,880
Speaker 4: Just who were you in cohoots with
