My Bengals, of course, lost again and 0:00:57.320 --> 0:01:00.160 again and again. Without Joe Burrow, they're now like three, 0:01:01.000 --> 0:01:04.320 so we'll see what happens with them and down the road. 0:01:04.400 --> 0:01:06.760 Without Joe Burrow, the Bengals are nothing. I love that 0:01:06.840 --> 0:01:09.880 guy from LSU and from the Southeast Conference, But I 0:01:11.120 --> 0:01:14.520 regress a little bit a couple of things. Number One, 0:01:15.400 --> 0:01:19.400 I've been mystified by the lack of information coming out 0:01:19.480 --> 0:01:23.400 about the assassin of Charlie Kirk and about what happened 0:01:23.400 --> 0:01:26.960 that fateful, awful day on September the tenth in Utah. 0:01:27.319 --> 0:01:30.280 I just you know, I would anticipate two or three 0:01:30.319 --> 0:01:33.840 months later we'd have a better sense of the assassin, 0:01:34.240 --> 0:01:37.720 who funded him, what was the idea? Some of the 0:01:37.760 --> 0:01:40.759 pieces don't fit. It didn't make sense as to how 0:01:40.760 --> 0:01:43.760 it happened, why it happened, why it was permitted to 0:01:43.800 --> 0:01:46.960 happen in a sense, and I'm thinking something's wrong. Later on, 0:01:47.040 --> 0:01:50.200 we have Joshua Phillip coming up. He wrote a a 0:01:50.280 --> 0:01:53.120 documentary that which came out about a week ago on 0:01:53.560 --> 0:01:57.600 the Young Leader charting a New path Forward. That's Charlie Kirk. 0:01:58.200 --> 0:02:02.360 And there was an interview about four or five days 0:02:02.360 --> 0:02:05.440 ago that kind of shed some light on what happened. 0:02:06.200 --> 0:02:10.040 And I'm not mentioning the murderer's name, how he was 0:02:10.080 --> 0:02:13.400 permitted to get on top of that building, how he 0:02:13.600 --> 0:02:16.880 was I guess, and wanted to stash his rifles somewhere 0:02:16.960 --> 0:02:19.919 where it would be located with his handprints on it. 0:02:20.480 --> 0:02:22.959 And none of it made any sense to me, And 0:02:23.000 --> 0:02:25.280 it still doesn't make a lot of sense, is how 0:02:25.360 --> 0:02:27.560 Charlie Kirk could have been put in that awful situation. 0:02:28.840 --> 0:02:32.240 And I know the security team for Charlie, some six 0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:37.240 members were one dred percent focused on protecting Charlie Kirk. 0:02:37.280 --> 0:02:40.280 I know some and the conservative media want to say 0:02:40.280 --> 0:02:43.320 there was some international forces at work. I'm not going 0:02:43.320 --> 0:02:45.960 to mention names of some of the stars of conservatism, 0:02:46.280 --> 0:02:48.720 many of which have fallen to my viewpoint that indicates 0:02:48.760 --> 0:02:51.720 there were international involvements in the killing of Charlie Kirk, 0:02:51.720 --> 0:02:55.600 et cetera. I like to have the evidence occur, the 0:02:55.680 --> 0:02:59.680 proofs be shown, and then the opinions derived from what 0:03:00.200 --> 0:03:02.760 of known facts as to how this could have happened, 0:03:02.760 --> 0:03:05.320 why it could have happened to someone like Charlie Kirk, 0:03:05.720 --> 0:03:09.360 who was at it for about thirteen years, beautiful wife, Erica, 0:03:09.480 --> 0:03:13.959 two little babies, and just murdered in public, as if 0:03:13.960 --> 0:03:17.360 he was crucified in public. So those who hate Charlie Kirk, 0:03:17.360 --> 0:03:20.480 of which there's millions and millions of Americans who continue 0:03:20.520 --> 0:03:24.160 to hate the guy because of the principles stood upon 0:03:24.680 --> 0:03:28.600 and how the assassination was allowed to transpire. One thing 0:03:29.240 --> 0:03:34.360 I'd read early on and a snippet that the six 0:03:34.440 --> 0:03:38.440 person security team of Charlie Kirk would always go a 0:03:38.480 --> 0:03:41.280 couple three days ahead of time to scout the location 0:03:41.760 --> 0:03:45.200 and to determine what's the exit route. And we're going 0:03:45.280 --> 0:03:49.520 to have certain barriers, and how do we deal with guns, 0:03:49.840 --> 0:03:51.680 how do we deal with an exit? How do we 0:03:51.760 --> 0:03:55.360 deal with possibly improvise explosive devices. 0:03:55.480 --> 0:03:56.680 How do we do all these things? 0:03:57.360 --> 0:04:01.480 After the attempted assassination of Donald Trump from an elevated 0:04:01.960 --> 0:04:04.080 top of a building, I know what was in their 0:04:04.160 --> 0:04:09.320 mind to protect the buildings when Charlie Kirk was literally 0:04:09.360 --> 0:04:13.800 a sitting duck, sitting on a chair under a canopy 0:04:14.400 --> 0:04:17.919 with three or four buildings one hundred and fifty yards 0:04:17.960 --> 0:04:23.039 away looking right down on him. And more information is 0:04:23.080 --> 0:04:25.359 coming out, I'm going to relate it to you. The 0:04:25.600 --> 0:04:28.720 chief of security for Charlie Kirk was a fine young 0:04:28.760 --> 0:04:33.680 man named Brian Harpool har Pol E. Harpool, and he 0:04:33.720 --> 0:04:38.080 claims the Utah Valley University Police Department failed to cover 0:04:38.200 --> 0:04:41.840 the campus rooftops after promising quote I got you covered, 0:04:43.080 --> 0:04:47.320 and he said that During a recent episode of a 0:04:47.440 --> 0:04:52.440 radio talk show, Hardpool had a security said that he 0:04:52.520 --> 0:04:56.160 and his team had raised concerns days ahead of time 0:04:56.680 --> 0:05:00.960 about the rooftop perch the exposure, though not drones could 0:05:01.000 --> 0:05:02.680 be flown to keep an eye on what's up there 0:05:02.839 --> 0:05:07.039 or put their own guys up there. So security for 0:05:07.160 --> 0:05:10.080 Charlie said, we have volunteers that'll go up on the 0:05:10.160 --> 0:05:13.240 roofs and just stand there, make sure no one gets 0:05:13.279 --> 0:05:15.760 no one else gets on the roof or we have drones. 0:05:16.920 --> 0:05:22.600 And there was text message messaging between Harpool which I'm 0:05:22.600 --> 0:05:25.279 going to share with you now and the chief of 0:05:25.320 --> 0:05:30.080 police for Utah Valley University, the head of the police 0:05:30.080 --> 0:05:35.120 department there, and Brian said, could we had concerns with rooftops, 0:05:35.400 --> 0:05:38.440 I mean the location. We weren't keen about the location, 0:05:39.200 --> 0:05:42.560 but it's our responsibility to protect Charlie and we know 0:05:42.640 --> 0:05:45.520 what our statutory authority is. We know we can't go 0:05:45.640 --> 0:05:47.680 up on top of the roofs, and let's give them permission. 0:05:48.279 --> 0:05:51.479 We also had numerous drones who wanted to fly to 0:05:51.520 --> 0:05:54.280 cover the whole crowd in real time, but we were 0:05:54.279 --> 0:06:00.240 told we can't do that because of because of airport restrictions. 0:06:00.839 --> 0:06:05.840 And so the head of security shared a purported screenshot 0:06:06.120 --> 0:06:10.440 of his text correspondence with Chief Jeffrey Long, chief of 0:06:10.520 --> 0:06:15.080 police of Utah Valley University. Harpool says the following, Hello, 0:06:15.200 --> 0:06:19.159 Chief Long, we received this message today from the student group. 0:06:19.480 --> 0:06:23.520 There's a student roof access pretty close to where c K. 0:06:23.960 --> 0:06:28.239 Charlie Kirk will be set up a Utah Valley, which 0:06:28.279 --> 0:06:31.679 is the Sorenston Student Center as a couple of staircases 0:06:31.800 --> 0:06:35.119 that go up to the walkways on top of the roof. 0:06:36.000 --> 0:06:39.440 The chief says, quote, you want access to the roof? 0:06:40.320 --> 0:06:43.800 Herpool chief of security says, I always told students have 0:06:43.880 --> 0:06:47.040 access above us. If that's true, it would be nice 0:06:47.080 --> 0:06:50.800 to either have a controlled access or allow one of 0:06:50.800 --> 0:06:55.039 my guys to be there on the roof. The chief said, quote, 0:06:55.200 --> 0:07:00.160 I got you covered. So he said later on, what 0:07:00.160 --> 0:07:02.280 else am I supposed to do when a command level 0:07:02.320 --> 0:07:06.479 person from an accredited police department says I got you covered? 0:07:07.600 --> 0:07:10.280 After that text, we never communicated again. 0:07:12.040 --> 0:07:12.400 Oh wow. 0:07:12.520 --> 0:07:15.840 And Harpool would not recall Long's first name, but during 0:07:15.840 --> 0:07:19.520 the interview, The Assault Lake Tribune reported that he was 0:07:19.520 --> 0:07:23.520 referring to Utah Valley University Police Chief Jeff Jeff Long 0:07:24.200 --> 0:07:28.760 Jeff Long. Harpool also noted that the orum orm Utah 0:07:28.920 --> 0:07:33.320 Police Department could have flown drones and as a SWAT unit, 0:07:33.840 --> 0:07:37.760 but we're never contacted by the UVU Police department for 0:07:37.840 --> 0:07:43.960 help despite a mutual aid agreement. The UVU has direct 0:07:44.000 --> 0:07:48.840 jurisdiction authority it's their campus, but the orum Utah police 0:07:48.880 --> 0:07:53.480 have a mutual assistance agreement and they were not contacted 0:07:53.520 --> 0:07:59.720 by UVU. So the security chief also said he upped 0:07:59.760 --> 0:08:04.080 the man in power to twelve at Utah Valley University 0:08:04.120 --> 0:08:07.040 because of the crowd. We normally run between eight and 0:08:07.120 --> 0:08:10.960 nine security personnel. We upped it based upon nothing other 0:08:11.000 --> 0:08:14.600 than the site itself. We're in a kind of place 0:08:14.640 --> 0:08:17.840 where we don't want to be. We're expecting a large crowd. 0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:20.680 So the long and the short of this is the 0:08:20.720 --> 0:08:26.280 security detail for Charlie Kirk raised the issue of the perch, 0:08:26.400 --> 0:08:29.280 the sniper's perch on top of the buildings, and the 0:08:29.360 --> 0:08:34.000 Chief police said, quote, I got you covered, and with 0:08:34.120 --> 0:08:37.199 that the issue was resolved. They set it up, set 0:08:37.320 --> 0:08:40.360 up the canopy, set up to tent, set out the handouts, 0:08:40.400 --> 0:08:43.480 they had behind them, they had a way out, They 0:08:43.559 --> 0:08:47.800 checked for improvised explosive devices. There was armed personnel around 0:08:47.840 --> 0:08:49.839 in case somebody could come to the front with a 0:08:49.920 --> 0:08:54.000 rifle or a gun. But at the end of the day, 0:08:54.360 --> 0:08:57.080 all it would have taken was for the UVU Police 0:08:57.120 --> 0:09:02.480 Department to have a personnel and Charlie Kirk's security detail 0:09:02.920 --> 0:09:05.839 what a provided personnel simply to stand on top of 0:09:05.880 --> 0:09:12.440 the roofs or someone else but it didn't happen. 0:09:12.520 --> 0:09:15.880 You know, hindsight's twenty twenty. But in this case, I. 0:09:17.840 --> 0:09:20.160 How Charlie was allowed to be in that position at 0:09:20.200 --> 0:09:25.760 that time and largely unprotected. I guess I kind of 0:09:25.760 --> 0:09:28.520 refer back to what happened to John F. Kennedy in 0:09:28.600 --> 0:09:31.960 Dealey Plaza November to the twenty second nineteen sixty three, 0:09:32.679 --> 0:09:37.800 when Clint the security Secret Service guy, it was a 0:09:37.800 --> 0:09:41.360 failure of imagination where they couldn't conceive of someone from 0:09:41.360 --> 0:09:44.960 the sixth four Depository named Lee Harvey Oswald the murder 0:09:44.960 --> 0:09:45.360 of John F. 0:09:45.480 --> 0:09:47.000 Kennedy. It couldn't conceive of it. 0:09:47.920 --> 0:09:51.840 And when Trump was all attempted murder of Donald Trump 0:09:53.160 --> 0:09:57.839 just before the presidential election in Butler County, Pennsylvania, the 0:09:58.000 --> 0:10:03.160 Secret Service, I guess, the top security detail in the world. 0:10:03.200 --> 0:10:06.960 The Secret Service did not have enough imagination to say, 0:10:07.000 --> 0:10:09.760 you know, that roof right there is only about one 0:10:09.800 --> 0:10:13.080 hundred and thirty yards away, and we better put somebody 0:10:13.160 --> 0:10:16.680 up there to make sure that a sniper doesn't get 0:10:16.720 --> 0:10:19.480 on top of that roof and shoot President Trump. They 0:10:19.480 --> 0:10:21.760 didn't do that. Either they said the roof was too 0:10:21.800 --> 0:10:25.840 hot or it was too sloped. Failure of imagination and 0:10:25.880 --> 0:10:31.000 in this case, you know, and the security detail said 0:10:31.000 --> 0:10:34.679 to UVU chief of police, Hey, what about those buildings 0:10:34.760 --> 0:10:36.520 up there on top? We can pull one of our 0:10:36.520 --> 0:10:39.520 guys up there. He said, I got you covered, and 0:10:39.600 --> 0:10:43.280 from that had a security for Charlie Kirk said, okay, 0:10:43.320 --> 0:10:46.360 it's covered. And of course it wasn't. It took a 0:10:46.480 --> 0:10:50.440 drone to identify someone climbing up there or a person 0:10:50.520 --> 0:10:53.720 standing there. And could the assassin have shot the person 0:10:53.800 --> 0:11:00.520 standing there? Sure, but he's dead. And so coming up later, 0:11:01.400 --> 0:11:04.960 we have a representative of Turning Point, USA. It's going 0:11:05.040 --> 0:11:08.760 to be with us. His name is Joshua Philip to 0:11:08.800 --> 0:11:13.680 talk about the new documentaries Out Truth, under Fire, young 0:11:13.760 --> 0:11:15.840 leader charting at different path. 0:11:15.880 --> 0:11:16.839 That was Charlie Kirk. 0:11:17.559 --> 0:11:20.480 Another world's a lesser place without him, and all of 0:11:20.559 --> 0:11:22.680 us would have been benefited more if he was around 0:11:22.720 --> 0:11:25.160 for another forty or fifty years. They say nothing of 0:11:25.200 --> 0:11:29.400 his children and his wife, So that's coming up later. 0:11:30.080 --> 0:11:33.880 And secondly, for those who follow me on X, the 0:11:34.000 --> 0:11:37.079 last few days have been remarkable. I put this on 0:11:37.520 --> 0:11:41.280 my X account which is at Willie WI l I 0:11:41.360 --> 0:11:44.040 E seven hundred WLW if you want to follow me 0:11:44.840 --> 0:11:48.000 and I said on my ex account, woke up this morning. 0:11:48.080 --> 0:11:48.880 A couple of days ago. 0:11:49.320 --> 0:11:51.800 Trump holds a love fest with Mom Donnie in the 0:11:51.840 --> 0:11:57.480 Oval as Marjorie Taylor Green exits Congress trashing Trump. Trump 0:11:57.559 --> 0:11:59.800 works with the commie mayor of New York City. But 0:12:00.000 --> 0:12:05.640 because Marjorie Taylor Green a trader, how's this possible? And 0:12:06.960 --> 0:12:11.040 I also I also had tweeted her x earlier quote. 0:12:11.120 --> 0:12:14.719 Trump handling of Mondamie was brilliant. With Trump's support, he 0:12:14.840 --> 0:12:18.480 is saying that when socialism fails horribly, which it will, 0:12:18.520 --> 0:12:21.880 it'll be due to the commedist policies unfettered by Trump, 0:12:22.080 --> 0:12:24.040 New York City voters will have no one to blame 0:12:24.040 --> 0:12:27.520 but themselves as prices rise and the city collapses, Will 0:12:27.559 --> 0:12:28.880 a big apple survive? 0:12:29.400 --> 0:12:30.079 That's another one. 0:12:30.160 --> 0:12:30.280 Man. 0:12:30.960 --> 0:12:33.120 I look at this and every now and then I 0:12:33.240 --> 0:12:36.360 kind of wish the President would restrain from attacking those 0:12:36.440 --> 0:12:39.520 in a personal way, especially those who have supported him 0:12:39.520 --> 0:12:41.960 so long and hard. On the other hand, is handling 0:12:41.960 --> 0:12:45.079 in Mom Donnie, on one hand was brilliant. So when 0:12:45.120 --> 0:12:48.800 New York City falls under the way to socialism, socialism 0:12:48.840 --> 0:12:52.320 fails because you're running other people's moneys to spend. According 0:12:52.360 --> 0:12:55.679 to Margaret Thatcher that you won't be able to blame 0:12:55.760 --> 0:12:59.880 Donald Trump because the policies will fail. Socialism has worked. No, 0:13:00.040 --> 0:13:02.160 we're on the face of the earth, whether it's Cuba 0:13:02.520 --> 0:13:07.480 or Eastern Europe or Venezuela or Russia, Socialism and communism 0:13:07.559 --> 0:13:10.439 simply doesn't work. So when the President didn't get enough 0:13:10.440 --> 0:13:12.920 fight with Mam Donnie, he kind of sent the message. 0:13:12.960 --> 0:13:15.200 You know what, the media was unhappy about that. The 0:13:15.240 --> 0:13:18.360 media wanted Trump to fight Mam Donnie to make Mom 0:13:18.400 --> 0:13:22.080 Donnie look better. And after the get together in the Oval, 0:13:22.800 --> 0:13:26.360 the Mam Donnie still said he's a fascist and he's 0:13:26.360 --> 0:13:29.240 a dictator and all that kind of crap. But nonetheless, 0:13:29.840 --> 0:13:33.200 at this point the two of them are close, and 0:13:33.240 --> 0:13:36.040 we'll see what happens. I hope Donald Trump is playing 0:13:36.400 --> 0:13:40.640 three dimensional Vulcan blindfold at chess and everyone else is 0:13:40.720 --> 0:13:43.920 playing checkers, and I hope that's the case. And lastly, 0:13:44.000 --> 0:13:46.640 once again this morning on Monday, the Sunday talk shows, 0:13:47.120 --> 0:13:49.600 instead of dealing with the mayhem and the riots in 0:13:49.679 --> 0:13:53.560 Chicago where a teen was murdered, fourteen year old teen 0:13:54.040 --> 0:13:57.200 eight wounded in shootings during a teen takeover in the 0:13:57.240 --> 0:14:00.959 Loop after a tree lighting ceremony celebrate the birth of 0:14:01.080 --> 0:14:05.079 Jesus Christ, and Chicago police are completely overwhelmed. 0:14:05.120 --> 0:14:05.760 I don't blame them. 0:14:05.800 --> 0:14:07.920 They're overwhelmed. They don't know what to do. New York 0:14:08.000 --> 0:14:10.880 cities and collapse. Look at the status of Los Angeles. 0:14:11.520 --> 0:14:13.480 I have a guest coming up later to talk about 0:14:13.640 --> 0:14:16.360 can America survive if the major three cities in this 0:14:16.440 --> 0:14:19.960 country are in complete socialists and collapse? When the police 0:14:19.960 --> 0:14:24.560 are diminished, when there's sanctuary cities, when government programs are funded, 0:14:24.600 --> 0:14:27.520 which are welfare programs at the expense of law enforcement. 0:14:28.440 --> 0:14:30.320 I can't conceive. Every now and then I think New 0:14:30.400 --> 0:14:33.240 York's in worse shape. In Chicago or in La. Then 0:14:33.360 --> 0:14:35.840 they know LA's in worse shape. Look at Karen Bass, 0:14:35.960 --> 0:14:39.600 Look what's happening there, And I'm thinking, Okay, which city's worse? 0:14:39.680 --> 0:14:40.080 Right now? 0:14:40.160 --> 0:14:42.960 Chicago goes to the rioth that took place in mass 0:14:43.000 --> 0:14:47.200 shooting outside the Chicago Theater left seven teams wound at 0:14:47.280 --> 0:14:51.120 one dead age. Of these victims, we're thirteen to seventeen 0:14:51.240 --> 0:14:54.600 years old, shot by other thirteen to seventeen year olds, 0:14:55.240 --> 0:14:58.600 and others were found shot around the city. As Mayhem 0:14:58.720 --> 0:15:01.880 reigned Supreme I read the story a fourteen year old 0:15:01.880 --> 0:15:04.640 boy was killed in eight others teams shot during a 0:15:04.680 --> 0:15:08.360 bustling Friday night to kick off the Christmas season. They 0:15:08.360 --> 0:15:11.720 call it the holiday season. It's chaos. And of course 0:15:11.760 --> 0:15:17.480 Brandon Johnson, who's a clown, He's a goof. Brandon Johnson said, well, 0:15:17.520 --> 0:15:20.920 this are all isolated incidents, much like the isolated incident 0:15:21.520 --> 0:15:27.760 when a killer was arrested seventy two times forty nine felonies, 0:15:28.200 --> 0:15:31.560 scorts a bottle of gasoline on a rider in the 0:15:31.600 --> 0:15:35.360 Metro and sets her on fire. And of course Brandon 0:15:35.400 --> 0:15:38.480 Johnson said, well that's a that's kind of an isolated incident. 0:15:39.120 --> 0:15:42.239 And all the thousands of murders and shootings in Chicago 0:15:42.440 --> 0:15:47.040 are all isolated incidences. Unbelievable. Let's take a short break, 0:15:47.080 --> 0:15:49.240 come back with more. I want to talk about the 0:15:49.280 --> 0:15:53.840 attempt by Democratic lawmakers to cause insurrection in the military. 0:15:54.560 --> 0:15:58.360 Incredible story. Let's continue. It's sad about Charlie Kirk. It's 0:15:58.400 --> 0:16:01.080 just everywhere I look, I see say, what's happening to 0:16:01.120 --> 0:16:03.640 our great country? Twenty two minutes after the hour, Bill 0:16:03.680 --> 0:16:06.360 cunning and the Great American with you every Sunday night, 0:16:16.720 --> 0:16:18.280 man If you want to see a picture of the 0:16:18.360 --> 0:16:23.239 victim of this attempted murderer. Her name is Bethany McGhee. 0:16:23.760 --> 0:16:29.120 It's on foxnews dot com. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy has 0:16:29.160 --> 0:16:32.160 identified the twenty six year old victim who was set 0:16:32.200 --> 0:16:37.480 on fire, Bethany McGee, and he also criticized the city's 0:16:37.720 --> 0:16:41.160 crime difficulties. Look at the riots Friday night in the loop, 0:16:41.280 --> 0:16:43.920 shutting down to the water tower, et cetera. Chicago was 0:16:43.960 --> 0:16:46.720 in collapse. It can't continue this way, but it will 0:16:47.320 --> 0:16:51.360 because I would assume Brandon Johnson would get He's got 0:16:51.360 --> 0:16:53.840 a ten percent approval factor. Who knows the next one 0:16:54.000 --> 0:16:57.840 might be worse than him. The person involved who did this, 0:16:59.400 --> 0:17:03.720 the attempt murderer, as seventy two prior arrests. He's fifty 0:17:03.760 --> 0:17:07.160 years old, accused of setting twenty six year old Bethany 0:17:07.200 --> 0:17:11.600 McGee on Chicago's L train on fire and never would 0:17:11.640 --> 0:17:13.840 have happened, of course, if he'd been locked up for 0:17:13.920 --> 0:17:17.520 any of the dozens of felonies that he's committed. His name, 0:17:17.560 --> 0:17:20.920 I'll say it one time. Is Marcus Reid spent decades 0:17:20.960 --> 0:17:24.760 cycling through the Chicago, Illinois, Cook County jail the so 0:17:24.840 --> 0:17:27.800 called criminal Justice Center out on bond at the time 0:17:27.840 --> 0:17:31.720 of the assault. There was a social justice de incarceration 0:17:32.240 --> 0:17:36.280 female African American Liberal Democratic judge who gave him an 0:17:36.320 --> 0:17:39.680 ankle monitor. Most recently for an assault that took place 0:17:39.720 --> 0:17:43.879 in August, and Reid intentionally used gasoline in a lighter 0:17:44.160 --> 0:17:47.080 to set McGee on fire. She was minding her own 0:17:47.080 --> 0:17:49.080 business reading her phone, seated in the middle of a 0:17:49.119 --> 0:17:52.480 train when Reid approached her from behind, doused her head 0:17:52.480 --> 0:17:56.440 and body with gasoline and set her on fire, and 0:17:58.280 --> 0:18:02.200 video shows Reid watching the woman engulfed in flames as 0:18:02.440 --> 0:18:04.720 she rolled on the ground, yelling and screaming, trying to 0:18:04.760 --> 0:18:09.280 save herself. Prosecutors obtained a video showing Raid at a 0:18:09.359 --> 0:18:13.439 gas station twenty minutes earlier before the attack, paying the 0:18:13.480 --> 0:18:17.680 cashier and filling a small container with gasoline. He said, 0:18:17.800 --> 0:18:23.040 a career. Her woman's name is US Magistrate Laura McNally. 0:18:23.400 --> 0:18:27.000 Now he charged federally asked him if he knew the 0:18:27.000 --> 0:18:30.399 maximum sentence now he's in real court at federal court. 0:18:30.840 --> 0:18:34.080 Said it's life imprisonment. He said, that's cool, that's cool, 0:18:34.119 --> 0:18:39.040 that's fine. And he spent his life committing crimes all 0:18:39.080 --> 0:18:42.400 over Chicago, and at no point to the Chicago judges 0:18:42.600 --> 0:18:45.680 lock him up for all the assaults and crimes he'd committed. 0:18:46.280 --> 0:18:51.400 He'd received seventy two arrests, forty nine convictions. Fifty years old. 0:18:51.680 --> 0:18:58.119 Now he's in adult court and which is felony, federal court. 0:18:58.160 --> 0:18:59.960 Now he's going to be finally spend the rest of 0:19:00.160 --> 0:19:02.760 his life in jail. He beat people up, stole stuff, 0:19:03.320 --> 0:19:07.760 kicked women, pulled women's hair, sexually assaulted women, rob stores 0:19:08.040 --> 0:19:13.439 all of his life. And Chicago because of the deincarceration movement, 0:19:13.920 --> 0:19:18.199 because of social justice, because of reparations, because according to 0:19:18.400 --> 0:19:21.280 some of these judges, too many black men are incarcerated. 0:19:21.520 --> 0:19:24.560 Red was available to do that to this fine woman. 0:19:25.400 --> 0:19:27.680 While let's continue in their calls eight sixty six six 0:19:27.800 --> 0:19:30.280 four seven seven three three seven Bill cunning and the 0:19:30.280 --> 0:19:40.800 Great American with you every Sunday night. I'm Billy cunning 0:19:40.840 --> 0:19:42.960 in before I take your calls. One other issue, we 0:19:43.040 --> 0:19:47.240 have some of these Democratic lawmakers, one who sew seeds 0:19:47.280 --> 0:19:50.640 of insurrection in the US military. There is no social 0:19:50.680 --> 0:19:53.879 convention they will not destroy to get it. Donald Trump, Now, 0:19:53.920 --> 0:19:56.880 if anyone really believes that the goal of these lawmakers 0:19:57.560 --> 0:20:01.280 is to somehow inform the military as to what their 0:20:01.359 --> 0:20:04.160 rights and duties are. That's a bunch of bs. They 0:20:04.200 --> 0:20:07.159 know what their rights and duties are. So when democratic 0:20:07.200 --> 0:20:11.560 lawmakers like Michigan Senator Elisa Slotkin or Senator Mark Kelly, 0:20:11.640 --> 0:20:15.760 or some representatives like Deluzio or Hulahan or a good 0:20:15.840 --> 0:20:17.720 Lander and some others did this video? 0:20:17.840 --> 0:20:18.159 Number one? 0:20:18.160 --> 0:20:20.719 Who paid for the video? How was it put together? 0:20:21.240 --> 0:20:24.080 How about pursuing that for a while. But the goal, 0:20:25.240 --> 0:20:28.600 as you may know, was to cut a video urging 0:20:28.680 --> 0:20:32.159 members of the military not to obey on lawful orders 0:20:32.160 --> 0:20:35.560 that Trump might issue. He then responded by issuing a 0:20:35.640 --> 0:20:39.199 series of social media posts suggestion these members had committed 0:20:39.240 --> 0:20:43.439 sedition and possibly deserve to die. I'd rather let the 0:20:43.560 --> 0:20:46.359 statement of these so called lawmakers hang out there without 0:20:46.359 --> 0:20:50.240 any response. There's about one point three million active duty 0:20:50.320 --> 0:20:54.080 service members that know what their responsibilities are. They know 0:20:54.880 --> 0:20:57.880 in the US Code of Military Justice they're not supposed 0:20:57.920 --> 0:21:01.600 to and they would not follow illegal orders or unlawful orders. 0:21:02.760 --> 0:21:06.159 The Code actually says any person subject to this chapter 0:21:06.480 --> 0:21:11.160 who willfully disobeys a lawful command of that person's superior 0:21:11.160 --> 0:21:14.520 commission officer shall be punished if the offense is committed 0:21:14.560 --> 0:21:17.040 in time of war by death or by such other 0:21:17.080 --> 0:21:20.040 punishment as a court martial may direct, or if the 0:21:20.040 --> 0:21:24.160 offense is committed at any other time such other punishment 0:21:24.680 --> 0:21:28.119 as the court martial may direct. And so when you 0:21:28.160 --> 0:21:33.199 think about it, on the surface, what these lawmakers was 0:21:33.240 --> 0:21:38.760 saying essentially was restating what the law is anyway, in 0:21:38.760 --> 0:21:40.960 other words, that you could take not their words and 0:21:41.000 --> 0:21:45.720 their expressions. But the wording in the video is carefully vague. 0:21:46.600 --> 0:21:49.080 So it's easy enough to agree with what they're saying 0:21:49.240 --> 0:21:53.080 because that's what the law is. But it's totally useless. 0:21:54.160 --> 0:21:56.840 There's no mention by any of them in the last 0:21:56.880 --> 0:22:00.240 five years where Donald Trump has issued some illegal laws order. 0:22:00.920 --> 0:22:03.280 When asked repeatedly, what can you give me an example, 0:22:03.560 --> 0:22:06.040 none of them can say. Well, in the four years 0:22:06.040 --> 0:22:08.240 in the first term and almost a year of this term, 0:22:08.680 --> 0:22:09.320 they can't come. 0:22:09.280 --> 0:22:11.040 Up with any of them, and. 0:22:11.040 --> 0:22:13.399 There's no mention by them as to what order is 0:22:13.400 --> 0:22:17.399 given by the president that has been given. So that's 0:22:17.440 --> 0:22:21.360 illegal because they know such wording would land them in court. 0:22:22.080 --> 0:22:24.960 So they're trying to make the case that what Trump 0:22:25.040 --> 0:22:28.600 is trying to do in Venezuela or in major cities 0:22:28.680 --> 0:22:32.720 is somehow unlawful, and that the spineless video put together 0:22:32.840 --> 0:22:37.560 by these Democrats fails to do that. It simply implies 0:22:37.680 --> 0:22:41.320 wink wink, nod, nod. So what they're saying is black 0:22:41.400 --> 0:22:44.560 letter law. But what they want to say is this 0:22:44.680 --> 0:22:48.399 president issues illegal orders and engage in an insurrection or 0:22:48.440 --> 0:22:51.240 rebellion against savaying command. 0:22:52.440 --> 0:22:53.160 Unbelievable. 0:22:53.920 --> 0:22:56.720 And the timing of this, I thought was interesting. You know, 0:22:56.840 --> 0:23:01.000 time after time after time, beginning with the Russian collusion delusion, 0:23:01.200 --> 0:23:05.359 and a dozen more after that. Whenever one of the 0:23:05.440 --> 0:23:09.640 lies fail against Donald Trump, the media and the Democrats 0:23:09.680 --> 0:23:11.919 come up with the next lie to keep the hatred 0:23:11.960 --> 0:23:15.720 of Donald Trump going. In a sense, the Epstein files 0:23:16.240 --> 0:23:21.120 are fading and failing because it appears the Democrats are 0:23:21.119 --> 0:23:25.600 more tagged by Epstein and his misbehaviors than Republicans or 0:23:25.600 --> 0:23:29.719 Donald Trump. Whether it's Senator George McGovern or the Clintons 0:23:30.400 --> 0:23:35.439 or Akeem Jeffries who solicited money from Jeffrey Epstein, or 0:23:35.480 --> 0:23:38.639 whether it's a member of Congress who actually text it 0:23:38.680 --> 0:23:43.120 with Jeffrey Epstein during a congressional hearing, it's the Democrats 0:23:43.560 --> 0:23:47.480 who have the problems and not Donald Trump with the Republicans, 0:23:47.600 --> 0:23:52.520 because that is failing. The timing is interesting again, it's 0:23:52.520 --> 0:23:56.560 a weapon of mass distraction released by these Democrats because 0:23:56.560 --> 0:23:59.880 they weren't getting enough mileage out of the Epstein fiasco. 0:24:01.040 --> 0:24:04.880 So Democrats started the door, opened the door about signing 0:24:04.920 --> 0:24:09.040 off on orders that they went the military to rebel 0:24:09.560 --> 0:24:11.840 and commit an insurrection against the United States. 0:24:12.320 --> 0:24:13.080 Unbelievable. 0:24:13.560 --> 0:24:16.159 And secondly, before I take some calls, you know, I 0:24:16.240 --> 0:24:20.680 watch everything simultaneously so you don't have to MSNBCC and 0:24:20.720 --> 0:24:24.680 now I watch it all. It was Thursday night Jake Tapper, 0:24:25.280 --> 0:24:29.960 fake Tapper was on with Andrew mcab and I should 0:24:29.960 --> 0:24:32.639 have recorded it at the time, but I've looked for clips. 0:24:32.840 --> 0:24:36.080 But I'm going to paraphrase what those two said. And 0:24:36.119 --> 0:24:38.439 they were talking a course about Epstein and Epstein and 0:24:38.440 --> 0:24:42.400 Epstein and Epstein. It's all about Epstein. And Andrew McCabe, 0:24:42.440 --> 0:24:45.439 as you may know, was second in command of the 0:24:45.520 --> 0:24:49.119 FBI for a long time. He was a CNN contributor 0:24:49.160 --> 0:24:52.000 before he was fired, and then he was acting FBI 0:24:52.080 --> 0:24:54.640 director for a while. Also, so the guy knows where 0:24:54.640 --> 0:24:59.040 the bodies are buried. And Jake Tapper asked Andrew McCay 0:24:59.480 --> 0:25:03.040 relatively to the Epstein matter. The Southern District of New 0:25:03.119 --> 0:25:08.480
