1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:05,440
Speaker 1: Michael, as the grand Poobah of the gubernation, you are

2
00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:09,360
Speaker 1: allowed to pronounce names and words anyway you see fit,

3
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:11,520
Speaker 1: irregardless of what some other.

4
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:12,239
Speaker 2: Google might think.

5
00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 3: Oh man, you know, the passive aggressiveness of this audience

6
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:20,600
Speaker 3: is simply amazing.

7
00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:23,720
Speaker 4: You had to know what was coming, Well, you're gonna drop,

8
00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:24,639
Speaker 4: and there it is.

9
00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:28,160
Speaker 3: Well, honestly, I was being naive and thinking, okay, well,

10
00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:32,559
Speaker 3: thank you, and then boom, irregardless, just kind of stabs

11
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:36,760
Speaker 3: me right in the heart, irregardless. For those of you

12
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,880
Speaker 3: just tuning in the last hour, I was talking about

13
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:43,559
Speaker 3: the new national security strategy that the Trump administration has

14
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:47,520
Speaker 3: put out, and as I said, I'm quite excited about it.

15
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:50,879
Speaker 3: It's it's finally somebody saying what we believe. And now

16
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:54,320
Speaker 3: we just need to focus on adhering to that strategy,

17
00:00:54,840 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 3: which I think Trump has generally speaking, not everybody, but

18
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 3: generally speaking, I think he's got the right people in

19
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 3: place to do that.

20
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 2: In addition to that, we need to.

21
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 3: Make certain that the members of the House and the

22
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:12,399
Speaker 3: Senate have a copy and that they well, assuming they

23
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:15,600
Speaker 3: know how to read, that they actually read it. And

24
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:19,839
Speaker 3: then anytime they think about drafting legislation or they're voting

25
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:24,040
Speaker 3: on legislation. They need to answer the question does this

26
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 3: advance that strategy? And the third thing they need to

27
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 3: be doing is what can we do as the Article one.

28
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 2: Branch under the Constitution to.

29
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 3: Propose and pass legislation that would advance that strategy. But

30
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:44,559
Speaker 3: now I'm drifting off into Michael Jackson's Never Never Land.

31
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 3: But we can hope if I debated during the break,

32
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 3: because I got five or six more pages of notes

33
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 3: on it. But I don't want to be accused, as

34
00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 3: I often am, of beating dead horses to death. So

35
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 3: I would encourage you to go on to Michael says,

36
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 3: go here dot com. Michael says, go here dot com

37
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 3: and read the strategy. You don't read a word for word,

38
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 3: but go through it, and I think you'll understand why

39
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 3: I'm excited about it, because it truly is for at

40
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 3: least in my lifetime. It's throwing out this path we've

41
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 3: been pursuing that has decimated the country. It's interesting to

42
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,920
Speaker 3: read before I get to the next topic, which, by

43
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 3: the way, it has to do with the January sixth bomber,

44
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 3: or technically the January five pipe bomber.

45
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 2: But eighty eight.

46
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,640
Speaker 3: Seventy seven, writes Michael, I'm about your age. I remember

47
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,639
Speaker 3: back in my twenties and thirties listening to somebody here

48
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 3: on KOA. That person, I'll just tell you it's Mike Rosen.

49
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,360
Speaker 3: I don't know why I'm trying to dance around that.

50
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,640
Speaker 3: Mike Rosen supported free trade policies and the competition.

51
00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 2: That it brings.

52
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 3: At first, I was like, Okay, well, he's smart than

53
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 3: I am, so I'll believe him. After a while, when

54
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,639
Speaker 3: I started to notice corporations moving out of the country

55
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,120
Speaker 3: and business is shutting down, I started to think that

56
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 3: that was not the best idea to have free trade.

57
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,079
Speaker 3: We needed some way to protect our businesses and keep

58
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 3: them here, but still have competition. You know what our

59
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 3: competition is. Our competition is our ingenuity. Our competition is

60
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:28,080
Speaker 3: our efficiency. Our competition is being able to make crap

61
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 3: better than anybody else in the world. That's what our

62
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 3: competition is. And that's what was totally missing. And you

63
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,760
Speaker 3: those stupid naft to free trade discussions.

64
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 2: Oh my god.

65
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 3: It was just as as ross Boro said, wait to

66
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 3: hear that giant sucking sound. And we've been living through

67
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 3: that giant sucking sound ever since I didn't know the

68
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 3: text continues. I didn't know what that was at the time,

69
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 3: but now it's easy to look back on it and

70
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 3: see to damage that a cause you can see it

71
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 3: in the rest belt of our country. The cities, they've

72
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 3: been decimated, all the empty factories and buildings and everything

73
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 3: else that goes along with that. If we went to

74
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 3: war today, we don't even have the ability to produce

75
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 3: enough steel to support the war machine. I hope Trump

76
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,360
Speaker 3: can turn this around, but he needs the Republicans and

77
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 3: Democrats to get on board. Well, I don't know if

78
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 3: the Democrats. I just kept my Michael Brown minute for

79
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 3: the nationally syndicated program that I do on Saturdays, by

80
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 3: the way, from ten to one on Freedom ninety three

81
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:35,160
Speaker 3: seven The Weekend with Michael Brown, in which I talk

82
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:40,039
Speaker 3: about the upcoming civil war among Colorado Democrats because of

83
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 3: this far lefty nut job running against John Hickenlooper. And

84
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:47,600
Speaker 3: I say, bring on the popcorn, because that's going to

85
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:55,760
Speaker 3: be a battle Royale. And this nut job is truly

86
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 3: as bad as are worse than Alexandria cost A Courts.

87
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 2: So have ad it Democrats.

88
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 3: So I write off the Democrats because they're fighting their

89
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 3: own battle the Republicans.

90
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 2: You need to get your act together.

91
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:15,279
Speaker 3: Because you know, these these realignments don't come along very often,

92
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 3: and when they do, you've got to take advantage of them.

93
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,479
Speaker 3: Let me ask you, what is Congress done lately? On

94
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 3: the way into work morning, I stop and get my

95
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 3: diet coke, of course, and I'm listening to whatever the

96
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,719
Speaker 3: news I know, Dana Prino and Bill Hemmert, so whatever

97
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 3: program they have on Fox News, and they were in

98
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 3: they were talking about how Congress is now battling about

99
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 3: what to do about Obamacare, and I'm thinking, what's the battle.

100
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,280
Speaker 3: The battle is, you need to kill it off, and

101
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 3: you need to get the insurance company out of those

102
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 3: out of those public policies, and by that, I mean

103
00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:01,920
Speaker 3: those public insurance policies, those public health care policies that

104
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 3: mandate you cover everything, because that destroys an insurance company's

105
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,920
Speaker 3: ability to build a risk pool. And if you can't

106
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 3: build a risk pool so that people can choose what

107
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,159
Speaker 3: pool they want to be in, then you're covering everything

108
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 3: and we're all paying for it, and the government's subsidizing it.

109
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:19,719
Speaker 2: So of course it's going to cost more.

110
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:25,719
Speaker 3: It's insanity and how Republicans are so dumb, dumbass stupid

111
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 3: that they can't realize that kill it, kill it while

112
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 3: you have the chance. God, they're just gutless. Anyway, your

113
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 3: text message reminded me of that. Let's talk about the

114
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,719
Speaker 3: January fifth momber because there are a lot of questions

115
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 3: about it. Well, I know we're getting more details on

116
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,720
Speaker 3: the life of Brian. Little reference there if anybody gets it.

117
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 3: The guy's name is Brian Culey. He's the guy from Woodbridge,

118
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:55,880
Speaker 3: Virginia that was arrested last week for allegedly planning the

119
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:57,680
Speaker 3: pipe bombs in DC on the evening.

120
00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,840
Speaker 2: Of January five. Back in twenty twenty one.

121
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 3: In what appears to me at least to be a

122
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:08,280
Speaker 3: leak related to the FBI's interrogation of this dirt bag

123
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:14,240
Speaker 3: last week, he apparently told the agents that he believed

124
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 3: the twenty twenty election was stolen, something the media latched

125
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 3: onto because they're desperate to brand Cole a thirty.

126
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 2: Year old goober.

127
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 3: I shouldn't claim the goober. He's not a goober, a

128
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 3: thirty year old idiot, a supporter of Donald Trump. Now interestingly,

129
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 3: his grandmother, who are you going to believe the media

130
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 3: or this guy's grandmother, because the grandmother denies the allegation

131
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 3: and insists her grandson is non political and is borderline autistic.

132
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 3: H I thought you were either autistic or not autistic,

133
00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 3: but maybe somewhere on the spectrum your borderline.

134
00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:57,160
Speaker 2: I don't know anyway.

135
00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 3: The New York Post just disclosed that Cole had a

136
00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 3: really weird obsession with My Little Pony. Dragon does too.

137
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 3: Dragon's got My Little Ponies everywhere?

138
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,280
Speaker 4: No no, no, no, that's Brian Shustring from the station across

139
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 4: the hall in the afternoon show. That's why there are

140
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 4: My Little poniers in that studio. They were there before

141
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 4: I got there, Brian Schuestring across the hall.

142
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 2: The Post says this quote.

143
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 3: A man who is part of the My Little Pony

144
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 3: a subculture is known as a Brony. The community was

145
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:36,120
Speaker 3: in twenty seventeen large enough to hold annual conventions, and

146
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 3: experts considered followers sincere in their fandom. So while the

147
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 3: charges against Cole appear to finally identify the individual scene

148
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,559
Speaker 3: on that security footage that we all saw who was

149
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 3: wearing a hoodie and carrying a backpack, and generally the

150
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:56,559
Speaker 3: same vicinity where the devices were later discovered the following day.

151
00:08:56,720 --> 00:09:00,960
Speaker 3: This now solved mystery does little to answer a lot

152
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 3: of questions about both the initial failure of the FBI's

153
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 3: investigation and the circumstances surrounding the discoveries that occurred the

154
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 3: next day when the Capitol riots were going on. On

155
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,200
Speaker 3: January sixth of twenty twenty one, give you an example,

156
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:23,000
Speaker 3: Congressman Barry Laudermilk, a Republican from down in Georgia. He's

157
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 3: the chairman of the Select sub Committee on January six

158
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 3: is asking the woman who quote found the device outside

159
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 3: the headquarters of the Republican National Committee to set for

160
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:41,320
Speaker 3: a transcribed interview. Carlin Younger is the woman. She had

161
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:46,959
Speaker 3: two contacts with the FBI shortly after January six but

162
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:51,800
Speaker 3: there's no indication anywhere that she spoke with the agents

163
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:56,559
Speaker 3: after January eleven, twenty twenty one, or that she spoke

164
00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:01,400
Speaker 3: with anybody in Congress related to all the numerous investigations

165
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:06,559
Speaker 3: that the Democrats were pursuing into the Capital protest. Huh

166
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 3: So you talk to them shortly after January sixth, and

167
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 3: then you disappear, now, Laudermilk the congressman from Georgia wants

168
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,160
Speaker 3: this woman to speak with this committee later this month,

169
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 3: calling her quote uniquely situated to provide information about her

170
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 3: discovery and obviously her interactions with the FBI. Did you

171
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 3: know that she worked for the federal government at the time,

172
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:34,199
Speaker 3: so she's probably got.

173
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 2: Some splaymen to do.

174
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:41,079
Speaker 3: Her involvement, however, is just one troubling aspect of the

175
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:47,080
Speaker 3: entire pipe bombs saga. I think we deserve answers, and

176
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:51,640
Speaker 3: pretty quickly on a list of a bunch of other questions. Now,

177
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:55,720
Speaker 3: no doubt some information. I know there's an investigation going on.

178
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 3: It's going to some of this information is going to

179
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,040
Speaker 3: be kept under seal until the trial. But as the

180
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,839
Speaker 3: clock winds down on this session of Congress, time is

181
00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:03,560
Speaker 3: of the essence.

182
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 2: So let's walk through some of the questions. I listed.

183
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:13,079
Speaker 3: Number one, her personal profile, I'm sorry, not her Cole,

184
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:19,240
Speaker 3: Brian Cole his personal profile. He's a social outcast, interest

185
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 3: in a cartoon cult. A family is in trouble with

186
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 3: the law. First, that is, someone targeted by the government

187
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 3: to work as an asset. Was Cole a confidential human

188
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:35,439
Speaker 3: source informant for the FBI or any other law enforcement

189
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 3: or intel agency at the time that he planned the device.

190
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 3: How about this second question, why did mister Cole purchase

191
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:50,079
Speaker 3: bomb making components over the course of more than a year.

192
00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:54,679
Speaker 2: Was he planning or was he being handled?

193
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 3: Was there a government handler that was timing everything out

194
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:04,920
Speaker 3: because they know how the investigations occur, and so let's

195
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:08,560
Speaker 3: spread out your purchases over a year, which is something

196
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 3: an FBI agent would know how to do, right or

197
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:15,680
Speaker 3: any other government handler, so that you know, you don't

198
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 3: just go out on January fourth and buy everything raise

199
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 3: red flags. How about this question, who is he communicating

200
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,840
Speaker 3: with on the evening of January five? Because we have

201
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 3: some information that there was cell phone ping. Now just

202
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 3: the ping, There may just be a ping, but he

203
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:41,200
Speaker 3: clearly had a mobile phone mobile phone with him, So

204
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:45,960
Speaker 3: was he in communication with anybody on that evening? I'd

205
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:51,920
Speaker 3: like to know why Why did the FBI's investigation just suddenly,

206
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 3: just abruptly go cold in the spring of twenty twenty one,

207
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,840
Speaker 3: despite at least according to kash Patel, there is a

208
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:05,280
Speaker 3: massive trove of evidence and there were just hundreds, if

209
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 3: not thousands, of leads on a suspect, and yet it

210
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 3: just gets put up in on these shelves. Who were the

211
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 3: law enforcement officers stationed outside the Democrat National Headquarters throughout

212
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:21,000
Speaker 3: the morning and into the afternoon of January six, Yeah,

213
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:24,320
Speaker 3: there were leos sitting outside both the RNC and the DNC.

214
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:27,760
Speaker 3: Who were they? Have they been interviewed? Do we have

215
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:31,280
Speaker 3: any three O two's or whatever that form is that

216
00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 3: the FBI fills out about interviews they've done. Are there

217
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:39,559
Speaker 3: any transcripts? Where's the information? But yet, I just like

218
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:43,040
Speaker 3: to know who they were. Were they DC cops? Were

219
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,840
Speaker 3: they private security guards? Were they with the FBI?

220
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 2: Who were they with?

221
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 3: And how is it that multiple DC or I should

222
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:55,400
Speaker 3: just say, let's first say police officers. How did multiple

223
00:13:55,400 --> 00:14:00,680
Speaker 3: police officers miss a device sitting almost in playing sight

224
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:05,520
Speaker 3: next to the driveway of the Democrat National Committee. You

225
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:09,360
Speaker 3: had the Capitol Police, you had the DC Metropolitan Police,

226
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 3: and that you had the US Secret Service because Kamala

227
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 3: Harris had been in the building. So how did they

228
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 3: all miss that? If it was so obvious, why did

229
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 3: you miss it? Somebody ought to be held accountable. How

230
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 3: did to forgive about the cops? How did two bomb

231
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:35,520
Speaker 3: sniffing canine units miss the device. If they were actually functional,

232
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 3: functioning devices, they were actually workable devices, then how did

233
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 3: bomb sniffing canine units miss those devices? Now, let's thinking

234
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 3: about Kamala Harris for a moment. Why did she travel

235
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 3: to the Democrat National Committee in the late morning on

236
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:59,080
Speaker 3: January sixth, so that would be a near death experience

237
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:03,560
Speaker 3: at the hands of an alleged magabomber. Why was she

238
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:05,800
Speaker 3: going there, what she do, who'd she meet with? How

239
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 3: long was she there? What did they talk about? What

240
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:12,040
Speaker 3: they do? You know, do we have any video? We

241
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 3: got video the bomb? Did she go in through the garage?

242
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,480
Speaker 3: The DNC, if I recall correctly, does have a garage.

243
00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 3: Did they go in through the garage? Did they go

244
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 3: in the front door?

245
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:25,040
Speaker 2: What was she doing there? How about this one?

246
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 3: Why was a security camera apparently intentionally diverted away from

247
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 3: the location where the device was eventually discovered, so that

248
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,040
Speaker 3: when people started, you know, when people report the device,

249
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:42,080
Speaker 3: and they oh, well, let's look at the security cameras, Oh,

250
00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 3: they're turned away from the device. Who did that? Why

251
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:49,800
Speaker 3: was it done? And then why did a representative of

252
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 3: First Net that's the company that employed the woman that

253
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 3: discovered the bombs on January sixth, Why did a representative

254
00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 3: of that company tell the FBI in an email sent

255
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 3: on January twentieth, twenty twenty one, that cell phone data

256
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 3: for January five was corrupted and cannot be restored.

257
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 2: When Verizon AT and T and T Mobile, everybody.

258
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 3: Else we had it all along, Nobody asks, it's not corrupt,

259
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:18,400
Speaker 3: it's right here.

260
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 1: Now.

261
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 3: That's just a list of ten questions that both the

262
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:26,520
Speaker 3: Trump administration and Congress I think ultra address like pronto.

263
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:30,760
Speaker 3: And despite the corporate media, despite the cabals a complete

264
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:33,240
Speaker 3: lack of interest in this story. You know that coverage

265
00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:36,960
Speaker 3: disappeared after Harris's presence at the DNC that day was revealed.

266
00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:41,280
Speaker 2: Yes, just code silence Trump.

267
00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:45,200
Speaker 3: Supporters, especially those that got ensnared by the abusive Manhattan

268
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:48,120
Speaker 3: For the Jay sixers, I think they deserve and I

269
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:51,280
Speaker 3: think they would want a full accounting of every aspect

270
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 3: of the pipe bomb story. And I think they deserve

271
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:59,360
Speaker 3: absolutely nothing less. Now everybody's thrilled because the Democrats appear

272
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 3: kind of shame can by the FBI's arrest of the herb.

273
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:08,480
Speaker 3: Virginia Senator Mark Warner feigned relief, but then he kind

274
00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:12,760
Speaker 3: of shifted the blame real quickly, shifted the blame very quickly.

275
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 2: I think it is.

276
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:16,479
Speaker 4: Gridew's if this perpetrator.

277
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 2: Got arrested.

278
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,960
Speaker 5: I gotta tell you, it kind of makes me looking

279
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:26,040
Speaker 5: at this crowd doing a victory laugh. When all the

280
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 5: senior FBI officials across all key divisions have been fired

281
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 5: for political purposes, When in some field offices, up to

282
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:37,639
Speaker 5: forty five percent of the FBI officers who were doing

283
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 5: things like counter tespionage and cyber.

284
00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:43,040
Speaker 4: Have been assigned to do immigration cases.

285
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:47,560
Speaker 5: It's it's a little rich that they're saying, America, America state,

286
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:50,680
Speaker 5: how much earlier could we have caught this guy if

287
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:52,200
Speaker 5: resources hadn't been diverted.

288
00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:54,679
Speaker 2: It's not rich, it's reasonable.

289
00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,400
Speaker 3: And oh, by the way, Jack Jake Tapper, remember over

290
00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:01,200
Speaker 3: at CNN, he said, yeah, they captivated, they got the

291
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:04,720
Speaker 3: white guy, as they showed the picture of the black guy.

292
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,440
Speaker 3: Maybe Jake's still looking for the white guy.

293
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:13,720
Speaker 2: Congratulations to Dave Logan for winning his thirteenth state title.

294
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:17,800
Speaker 4: As a head football coach. He is an inspiration.

295
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 3: Congratulations Dave. There is a group called Reporters Without Borders,

296
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:34,080
Speaker 3: and they published a treatise or an analysis. I guess

297
00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:38,120
Speaker 3: would be a better word about freedom of the press worldwide.

298
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:39,480
Speaker 2: In twenty twenty five.

299
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:42,359
Speaker 3: Dragon, if you go over to their website, if you

300
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:47,159
Speaker 3: look at Reporters Without Borders, there is a map that

301
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 3: ranks the different countries in the world based on their

302
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:55,240
Speaker 3: freedom of the press. They're rated as a good situation,

303
00:18:55,640 --> 00:19:00,720
Speaker 3: that's the best, then statisfactory situation, a problematic situation, a

304
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:07,280
Speaker 3: difficult situation, and a very serious situation. And it goes

305
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:13,159
Speaker 3: from green to red. Green's good, Red's bad. So as

306
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:14,520
Speaker 3: I look at the map, let me blow it up

307
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:21,120
Speaker 3: a little bit. I see, oh, Greenland's green good, and

308
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:28,640
Speaker 3: the Nordic countries are good, and then that's it. Now

309
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:33,840
Speaker 3: the next level is satisfactory. There are let's see Australia,

310
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:35,680
Speaker 3: which is kind of funny because I've got a story

311
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:39,439
Speaker 3: about speech in Australia. But they're not very good. I

312
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:44,440
Speaker 3: mean they're they're ranked as satisfactory. So is South Africa,

313
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 3: let's see, And so is Canada. And the European countries

314
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,120
Speaker 3: are ranked as pretty good.

315
00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:53,879
Speaker 1: As is.

316
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,439
Speaker 3: I can't tell there's some little country in South America.

317
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 3: I can't tell we one it is. It's not a

318
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:04,360
Speaker 3: very good, not a very clear math that I'm looking at.

319
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 3: Then you get to the problematic, and there are a

320
00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:13,359
Speaker 3: lot of countries that are marked problematic. Let's skip those

321
00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:15,919
Speaker 3: for just a moment and go to those that are

322
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:24,880
Speaker 3: in various serious situations. That's pretty much most of Asia, Russia, China, India,

323
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:33,320
Speaker 3: the all the stands, the Middle East, Venezuela. Then you

324
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 3: get to they're bad in the difficult situations are a

325
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 3: lot of African countries, Mexico. But the ones that are

326
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:50,879
Speaker 3: in the middle problematic situations, we are ranked in that group.

327
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:55,480
Speaker 3: We are ranked fifty seventh in the world in terms

328
00:20:55,520 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 3: of freedom of the press. I find that really stupid.

329
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:06,040
Speaker 3: So Reporters without Border says that this country, the country

330
00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 3: with the world's strongest constitutional protection for freedom of speech

331
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:15,720
Speaker 3: and freedom of the press, is a problematic. They call

332
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:19,120
Speaker 3: us a democracy. We know we're not, and we're actually

333
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:24,080
Speaker 3: behind the long list of European countries that criminalize opinions

334
00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:29,560
Speaker 3: subsidize favored news outlets. Maybe that's why they get ranked better,

335
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:34,600
Speaker 3: because they get government money. And then they also increasingly

336
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:39,760
Speaker 3: blur the line between journalism and government messaging. They blur

337
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 3: the line between a free press and a state run media,

338
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 3: and do understand how that result is even possible. You

339
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,320
Speaker 3: got to grasp a simple but an un settling point.

340
00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:56,399
Speaker 3: Europe has been quietly redefining freedom of the press and

341
00:21:56,640 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 3: freedom of expression, so that if you impose restraint on speech,

342
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:07,680
Speaker 3: that counts as a protection of freedom. So if you're

343
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:12,760
Speaker 3: limited expressing what you believe that may limit your freedom,

344
00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 3: that that expands the freedom of people that might be

345
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:19,080
Speaker 3: offended by what you say. It's I know, it's Orwellian,

346
00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:25,200
Speaker 3: It's totally Orwellian. So this World Press Freedom Index, again

347
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:30,159
Speaker 3: Reporters Without Borders, is the most polished expression of that

348
00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:35,320
Speaker 3: inversion because it is built on European speech norms. They

349
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:39,960
Speaker 3: don't use America's First Amendment norms. They use the norms

350
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,760
Speaker 3: out of Europe, and the result is an index that

351
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:47,439
Speaker 3: systematically penalizes countries like the United States because we allow

352
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:52,320
Speaker 3: too much speech, and it rewards governments that silence entire

353
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:56,919
Speaker 3: categories of debate, all in the name of safety, cohesion,

354
00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:02,680
Speaker 3: and so called reputative things. You know, the old saw

355
00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 3: give up a little bit of freedom for a little

356
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:09,360
Speaker 3: bit of security. Well, Reporters without Borders believe that when

357
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:13,159
Speaker 3: you do that, why by you giving up some of

358
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:20,000
Speaker 3: your freedom in exchange for some security they have. In

359
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:24,720
Speaker 3: new speak language, they have said, oh that expands freedom.

360
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 3: You see why I worry about Europe. Start with just

361
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 3: a basic architecture or architecture of this whole map. Their

362
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 3: index does not simply tally whether government sensors and prisons, reporters,

363
00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 3: shut downs, shutdowns a newspaper. What it does it mixes

364
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:52,320
Speaker 3: several indicators, including like a for example, legal framework, an

365
00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 3: indicator that counts speech regulations as protective if they are

366
00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:04,720
Speaker 3: framed as hate speech or disinformation. So Reporters without Borders

367
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:09,800
Speaker 3: has finally taken what I've always feared would eventually happen,

368
00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:14,960
Speaker 3: And they've now taken hate speech and disinformation, which I

369
00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 3: believe that you are entitled.

370
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:19,919
Speaker 2: To express hate speech. I may not like it. You

371
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:20,720
Speaker 2: may not like it.

372
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 3: In fact, I may think that you're a bigoty, I

373
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:26,600
Speaker 3: may think that you're an ass for saying what you said,

374
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:30,080
Speaker 3: But nonetheless I respect that you have a right to

375
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:30,560
Speaker 3: say that.

376
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:33,159
Speaker 2: But have inverted it.

377
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:37,119
Speaker 3: They've taken the hate speech, they've taken the disinformation and saying.

378
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,640
Speaker 3: But by doing that, by regulating hate speech and disinformation,

379
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 3: you're making a society freer. You don't get much more

380
00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:49,160
Speaker 3: orwellion than that. That is a social cultural indicator that

381
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:54,920
Speaker 3: treats polarization and public distrust as signs of declining freedom,

382
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:58,360
Speaker 3: and a safety indicator that blurs the distinction between targeted

383
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:02,320
Speaker 3: physical attacks and the broad climate of criticism and online hostility.

384
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 3: So from a European perspective, that makes sense, right. European

385
00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 3: elites have spent decades now building a model in which

386
00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:15,960
Speaker 3: speech is divided into legitimate expression which deserves protection, and

387
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:21,479
Speaker 3: harmful expression, which governments have to regulate and criminalize in

388
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:27,000
Speaker 3: order to keep their so called democracies strong and healthy. Now,

389
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:30,600
Speaker 3: think about that from an American's perspective, Well, I would

390
00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:34,280
Speaker 3: say that is precisely the problem. If the state gets

391
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:39,719
Speaker 3: to define which ideas are legitimate, and if institutions reward

392
00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:44,960
Speaker 3: states for policing those ideas, then the whole concept of

393
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:49,399
Speaker 3: freedom of the press becomes meaningless. Now, I think the

394
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:53,600
Speaker 3: clearest example of that redefinition is your treatment is so

395
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:56,399
Speaker 3: called hate speech laws. Because in Europe those laws are

396
00:25:56,440 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 3: presented as legal shields protecting minority in journalists from the

397
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:06,119
Speaker 3: European Union Framework Decision on Racism and xenophobia. That is

398
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:11,440
Speaker 3: a mandate to their member states, mandate to criminalize incitement

399
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:16,360
Speaker 3: to hatred against protected groups. And so the governments under

400
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:20,119
Speaker 3: the EU umbrella have actually gone further. They criminalize speech

401
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:24,320
Speaker 3: that is merely insulting or demeaning or likely to offend

402
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:29,399
Speaker 3: if it's speech that's based on race, religion, sexual orientation,

403
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:36,760
Speaker 3: immigration status. And with the Freedom from the Press Foundation methodology,

404
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:39,960
Speaker 3: they now score countries on the legal environment and the

405
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:42,919
Speaker 3: safety of journalists, and they treat these criminal bands as

406
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:48,080
Speaker 3: evidence that the state is protecting a vulnerable group like reporters.

407
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 3: Really you're vulnerable, and then they reduce the risk of

408
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,920
Speaker 3: violence by protecting them. So the more you think about

409
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 3: what are the consequences of that, the consequences mean that

410
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 3: the more aggressively a government police is hateful or offensive speech,

411
00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,640
Speaker 3: the more it can actually claim to safeguard the journalists

412
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:09,760
Speaker 3: and their audiences and therefore claim that we're actually freer.

413
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 3: It's such an inversion and such a bastardization of the

414
00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:20,840
Speaker 3: concept of free speech that to many Europeans it just

415
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:26,399
Speaker 3: seems normal, which is why I just pound on this topic,

416
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:33,639
Speaker 3: because how soon, how quickly do reporters in this country

417
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:37,240
Speaker 3: want to adopt that kind of interpretation and that kind

418
00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:41,160
Speaker 3: of standard. And yet much of what europ calls hate

419
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:45,880
Speaker 3: speech is precisely the sort of political expression that our

420
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 3: First Amendment protects. So criticizing ille immigration, even when you're

421
00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:52,520
Speaker 3: really harsh about.

422
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:55,480
Speaker 2: It, that's protected.

423
00:27:56,640 --> 00:28:03,600
Speaker 3: Mocking satirizing religious figures, including the prophet Muhammad, rejecting your

424
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:10,400
Speaker 3: ridiculing transgender ideology, including the practice of insisting on biological pronouns,

425
00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:15,520
Speaker 3: arguing that you know, or maybe even just saying guaranteed human, Well,

426
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,439
Speaker 3: maybe I'm not guaranteed human today.

427
00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:19,400
Speaker 2: Maybe I'm not.

428
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 3: Arguing that certain protective minorities receive unjustified, unjustified privileges, or

429
00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:33,119
Speaker 3: that immigration has damaged national culture. Can't do that because

430
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:36,840
Speaker 3: in Germany, France, the United Kingdom, other countries, citizens have

431
00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:40,360
Speaker 3: been investigated, They've been fine, they've even been jailed for

432
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:44,239
Speaker 3: exactly these kinds of statements. In fact, many of the

433
00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:47,880
Speaker 3: things that I say on this program are probably criminal

434
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:50,160
Speaker 3: and at least get a knock knock on the door

435
00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:51,920
Speaker 3: from a constable.

436
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 2: For me saying it.

437
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:57,960
Speaker 6: Michael, does Trump just try to irritate everybody about changing

438
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 6: the holidays that you can get into National Parks to

439
00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 6: Flag Day, come of his birthday.

440
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:08,080
Speaker 2: I heard that. Have you heard that?

441
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 1: Dragon?

442
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 4: I thought I had seen something about that as I

443
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,200
Speaker 4: was swiping through the social media's but I didn't pay

444
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:16,080
Speaker 4: it any mind because I didn't know the source at

445
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,080
Speaker 4: that time, so I just scrolled right on past.

446
00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 3: Oh, he's got to stop that kind of crap, you know.

447
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:24,080
Speaker 3: If it's true, I don't know what it is. That's

448
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:24,720
Speaker 3: the first I've.

449
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:26,959
Speaker 2: Heard of it. I can't believe I'm seeing anything about it,

450
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,040
Speaker 2: because that would be that that is something you would

451
00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:29,640
Speaker 2: irritate me.

452
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 4: But if I do recall correctly, flag Day is his birthday,

453
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:37,360
Speaker 4: so it's changing a holiday to flag Day.

454
00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:40,479
Speaker 2: It just happens to be just happen to his birthday.

455
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:44,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, okay, Well you know, so go celebrate Flag Day,

456
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:48,120
Speaker 3: and you know, just fly a Trump flag, you know,

457
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 3: an American flag and by the way, the American flag

458
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:53,320
Speaker 3: goes on top, just as a reminder of flag.

459
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 2: Bro would call real quickly, let me just finish this

460
00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:57,040
Speaker 2: out about Europe.

461
00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:02,360
Speaker 3: So Emmanuel French President Macron is a great example of

462
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:06,000
Speaker 3: what I'm talking about. He's speaking to a bunch of

463
00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:09,760
Speaker 3: a bunch of yahoos and he actually endorsed the system

464
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:16,840
Speaker 3: in which professional bodies ie government bodies, would certify particular outlets,

465
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:19,880
Speaker 3: but only if they followed to prove ethical standards and

466
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 3: responsible fact checking. And he frames that as a response

467
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:30,760
Speaker 3: to disinformation and online harassment, especially conspiracy theories that well,

468
00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,080
